00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:05,920
Hello everyone, and welcome to a
special week 6 edition of in 

2
00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:09,640
season ADP chasing. 
No, we did not forget about you 

3
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:11,600
guys. 
We just completely forgot to 

4
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:15,280
announce the show was starting 
late, but we're here as we are 

5
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:20,120
every Monday, bag defending, 
victory lapping, panicking. 

6
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:23,880
It's the premiere in season 
basketball show to sweat your 

7
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:25,040
bags. 
Let's do it. 

8
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,120
ADP chasing is for when you 
watch ship chasing you go these 

9
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,760
guys are just football guys. 
And the targets for outrun 

10
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:33,280
leagues, that's going to be 
really nice, actually. 

11
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,640
Back in if it's Austinette. 
It's stared to our crystal ball.

12
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:38,880
Close your eyes, you know all 
your entries are going to lose 

13
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:40,960
anyway. 
Yeah, that's fair. 

14
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:42,320
This is a Deuce Vant show. 
It's. 

15
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,160
Anti cabal. 
It's anti the best ball thought 

16
00:00:45,160 --> 00:00:47,320
leader. 
I'm obviously lying to some 

17
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:49,920
degree because like, I have a 
lot of both of these guys. 

18
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,280
It's the most disgusting thing 
you can make. 

19
00:00:52,920 --> 00:01:03,120
But man, hey, Davis, welcome to 
the show to everyone joining 

20
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:06,120
here live. 
We're still waiting for Pat 

21
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,560
Crane, Patty, millions. 
I don't know if Rico Douddle had

22
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,280
too good of a game last night 
that he feels like he doesn't 

23
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:12,600
need to show up to these 
anymore. 

24
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:16,320
Well, but did he? 
Because he did score some 

25
00:01:16,320 --> 00:01:18,760
points. 
But Rico Douddle was one DAC 

26
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:20,760
heads up. 
Play away from Hunter Lupke 

27
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:25,120
starting in Week 6 against 
Detroit for the Dallas Football 

28
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:29,000
Cowboys. 
That was an ugly fumble at the 

29
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,560
end of the game last night. 
Rivo didn't watch Rico Dattle. 

30
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:36,320
It was I think 3rd and goal from
the one yard line and he takes a

31
00:01:36,320 --> 00:01:38,320
half back dive up the middle, 
tries to do the thing where he 

32
00:01:38,320 --> 00:01:41,760
dives over the line of scrimmage
and just gets blown up. 

33
00:01:41,960 --> 00:01:47,080
Football squirts out Dak. 
Luckily that's actually, that's 

34
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,360
actually one of the fumbles. 
I think you could see a a 

35
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,800
reasonable coaching staff saying
that it's not. 

36
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:55,920
Yeah. 
That it's not his fault, 

37
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,560
apparently. 
Apparently my mic is on the 

38
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:58,760
wrong. 
My mic is on the wrong. 

39
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:01,360
I fixed it. 
There you go. 

40
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:02,360
Yeah. 
Sounds good. 

41
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,760
I actually agree with that 
Davis, because you you got to go

42
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,280
for the touchdown there like 
fumbling there actually isn't 

43
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,520
that bad compared to a normal 
situation because the field goal

44
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,960
doesn't help you like not 
getting the touchdown doesn't 

45
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,000
help you. 
So it's it's not a great play, 

46
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,920
but I don't think it's like a 
benchable fumble given the game 

47
00:02:18,920 --> 00:02:22,800
situation. 
I mean, Hunter, Hunter Lupke 

48
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,080
would have scored on that play 
without having to have jumped 

49
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,120
like he would have just he would
have just powered through. 

50
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,560
I, I, I really, I really do 
believe this, by the way, like 

51
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:36,320
Lupke set up that play with the 
what was it like second and 13 

52
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,720
or something on the screen? 
Like the the Lupke thing, dude. 

53
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,960
I mean it's like Zeke. 
He's there, He's there. 

54
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:45,960
Use Jack, I think. 
I mean, he's a pretty good 

55
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,360
player out there for them, yeah.
The issue is, is that Rico 

56
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,080
Dowdell is not even Jordan 
Mason. 

57
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:55,080
Like Jordan Mason could go to 0 
or Rico Dowdell could go to 0 at

58
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,800
any time. 
Why was Deuce Bond not active 

59
00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:59,680
last night? 
Was he injured or are they just 

60
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,600
they were just done with it? 
Dude, I think it's it's over 

61
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,640
him. 
You look at all of like his 

62
00:03:04,640 --> 00:03:08,240
efficiency stuff and like he was
created as PF FS, worst running 

63
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,240
back last year. 
This year is averaging like 2.9 

64
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,000
yards per carry, like less than 
Zeke. 

65
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,280
So I think they're done with 
that experiment. 

66
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,160
I actually wonder in Dallas if 
we get the Dalvin Cook elevation

67
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,200
next week and see if he can 
maybe steal some of Zeke snaps 

68
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,960
because dude, Zeke and Zeke and 
Vaughn, I think they've seen 

69
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:31,240
enough of those guys. 
So I actually had Zeke on 2 main

70
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:36,600
event teams because you know, 
it's like main event and like 

71
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,920
you're in the 11th round and you
have one running back and it's 

72
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,960
like, all right, well, we got 
to, we got to take Zeke and I 

73
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,960
cut him for Beau Melton, which 
by the way, might come around 

74
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,440
to, to getting there if Doug 
Damian Wicks gets bad. 

75
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,360
Yeah, that could easily still 
get there. 

76
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:57,800
I mean, Romeo Dobbs has left the
team for I want to hear his side

77
00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,800
of the story there, because 
that's a bizarre situation. 

78
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,480
Duntavian Wicks has the worst 
hands in the league. 

79
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,920
Like not even a bit like 
straight up has the worst hands 

80
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:06,720
of any wide receiver in the 
league right now. 

81
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,880
So Beau Melon good good back 
door into that mattering. 

82
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:13,800
While we're while we're waiting 
for Karain, if Crane even shows 

83
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,480
up, let's actually do the Romeo 
Dobbs Duntavian Wicks things 

84
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:20,480
before we get into victory 
lapping bag, defending and panic

85
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:26,000
button, because I think they're 
pretty clear. 

86
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,600
It's I actually don't believe 
the party line at all. 

87
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,640
There, there is no shot that 
Romeo Dobbs walked into Matt 

88
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,400
Lafleur's office and said, throw
me the God damn ball. 

89
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,000
I, I, I don't believe this. 
I don't believe this at all. 

90
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:43,920
It's got to be a personal issue.
It's got to be something that we

91
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,520
do not know about. 
Maybe maybe a mental health 

92
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:50,200
thing for him. 
Maybe maybe like there's a an 

93
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,840
illness in his family. 
I I just got to be honest, I do 

94
00:04:52,840 --> 00:04:56,080
not believe that Romeo Dobbs, a 
fifth round rookie out of 

95
00:04:56,080 --> 00:05:00,000
Nevada, walked in and said you 
got to get me the ball more that

96
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,960
that feels impossible. 
It's also because in the two 

97
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,880
Jordan Love games, you know, the
Malik Willis games, I'm kind of 

98
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,040
willing to throw those out. 
They were running the ball so 

99
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:09,800
much. 
The two Jordan Love games before

100
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,840
week five this year, you had 6 
targets and eight targets in 

101
00:05:13,840 --> 00:05:17,160
those two games. 
So like I I don't know, you just

102
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,200
get 8 targets in a game and then
you're going and complaining 

103
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,240
about your role like that. 
That seems crazy. 

104
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,280
So I'm I'm with you, Davis. 
I think there's something we 

105
00:05:24,280 --> 00:05:29,560
don't know here by like full on 
Galaxy brain idea was like, was 

106
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:34,560
there some trade talks with like
the Browns on Amari Amari Cooper

107
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,120
or yeah, or with Kansas City? 
I I don't know, like something 

108
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:41,360
where he was being offered as a 
trade piece somewhere and that 

109
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,560
got back to him that that's 
probably unlikely. 

110
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,880
I think we would have probably 
heard something about that. 

111
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,920
It also would be weird to trade 
Romeo Dobbs given his contract 

112
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,480
situation and everything. 
So yeah, I think that I think 

113
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,360
there is something we don't know
here. 

114
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,560
The last reports on Sunday we 
did get sounded somewhat 

115
00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,160
positive that like. 
Yeah, he said. 

116
00:05:59,280 --> 00:06:01,200
He's going to be back this week.
We need him. 

117
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:05,120
He's still a part of the team. 
All all that, all that stuff. 

118
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,480
Yeah, but yeah, I'm with you 
there. 

119
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,320
I don't. 
Yeah, I don't agree. 

120
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:12,960
The the official story. 
The other thing I wanted to get 

121
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,640
to while we're waiting for Pat. 
Still. 

122
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:18,400
Yeah, still, still silence from 
Pat. 

123
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:22,200
Not sure what he's up to, but 
did you get, I know the game 

124
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:26,520
went really late last night. 
Did you get a chance to watch 

125
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:27,920
that whole game? 
I guess it sounds like you did 

126
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:28,880
because we're talking about the 
the. 

127
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:33,560
I so I watched, I watched the 
first half and then I went to 

128
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,680
bed. 
I was like enough, enough. 

129
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,080
But I watched, I watched. 
I watched some of the stuff this

130
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:42,960
morning the the condensed game. 
OK, I asked because I wonder 

131
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:46,880
what your thought is on the 
state of Russell Wilson's calf 

132
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,880
injury after the. 
Game it's it's he's been 

133
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,920
drinking the the what the 
recovery water is that what he 

134
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,520
called it it's like it went it 
went from being you know, 

135
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,520
possibly this might be career 
ending to you know, he's he's 

136
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:03,480
he's he's he's doing some laps 
you know, he's ready he's ready 

137
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:05,160
to maybe start pushing the sled 
a little bit. 

138
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,600
I think see that the issue is, 
is the Steelers play the Raiders

139
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:12,240
this week. 
So I think his calf would have 

140
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,800
been feeling better. 
But I think sadly, after this 

141
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,960
week against the Raiders, he he 
might be on a downturn. 

142
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,040
And and for a team like the 
Steelers, this is such an 

143
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:22,600
underrated thing. 
But they're they're probably 

144
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,960
going to get Jalen Warren back 
this week after he missed the 

145
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:32,080
last two weeks and just not 
having Naji Harris out there is 

146
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,400
is a pretty big win for the 
Pittsburgh Steelers. 

147
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:39,200
I mean is Naji Harris, is he 
Zeke esque like my God there. 

148
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,320
We go, here's the man. 
I, I, I said I wasn't going to 

149
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,880
come on until we started talking
about how Washtagi Harris was. 

150
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,800
So here I am. 
And it's pretty bad, huh? 

151
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:53,240
He's got he, he, he is like I 
would put him in the Trey Sermon

152
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:57,240
camp of being like, he's got to 
get 20 touches to get 15 points.

153
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:01,040
Man, it's it's really yeah. 
Najee Harris is just Trey Sermon

154
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:02,320
now. 
He's he's bad. 

155
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:06,640
I mean, the fact that Cordell 
Patterson was instantly so much 

156
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,000
better than him last week. 
And did you hear who did they 

157
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,600
play two weeks ago? 
I'm blanking. 

158
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,760
But there were some reports that
the defenders on whatever team 

159
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,880
they played two weeks ago, I'm 
blanking, were like shit talking

160
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,120
Najee Harris after the game and 
saying like, Oh yeah, they're 

161
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,320
saying like, I think Cordo 
Patterson is number 8. 

162
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,600
And they're like, yeah #8 runs 
way harder. 

163
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,000
Like Naji's soft. 
Like they, they were just 

164
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,159
talking him after the game about
how much better seat that was 

165
00:08:32,159 --> 00:08:34,960
than him. 
So that's just, that's a tough 

166
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,640
look for Naji. 
No, it's not good. 

167
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:40,159
I think Naji's going to zero 
man. 

168
00:08:40,159 --> 00:08:43,000
I I think, I think if Jalen can 
get this through this PCL 

169
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,000
injury, maybe even for your 
Jalen Warren bags, you would 

170
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,840
actually prefer him to maybe sit
one more week to just let the 

171
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:53,800
need get 100% because I would 
actually anticipate assuming 

172
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:57,520
Jalen Warren is close to healthy
Tomlin's like Naji. 

173
00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:59,520
Thank you for your service. 
You've been a great you've been 

174
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:03,640
a great Pittsburgh Steeler, but.
Yeah, it's the final year of his

175
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,960
contract. 
Like, yeah, they had nothing, 

176
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,640
nothing committed to him after 
this year that we did start this

177
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,280
in the Steelers topic, talking 
about the status of Russell 

178
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,320
Wilson's calf injury. 
How healthy is his calf feeling 

179
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,760
after the game last night? 
It's a little healthier than it 

180
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:22,960
was, yeah, but I think it's 
still, it's not, it's not, you 

181
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,920
know, fully recovered. 
It's, it's definitely, it's 

182
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:27,640
probably a week or two. 
Away. 

183
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:32,600
From from being healthy Depends.
On but they get they get the 

184
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:33,320
Raiders. 
Every. 

185
00:09:33,560 --> 00:09:37,920
Week though, well, yeah, but. 
It's going to be hurting this 

186
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:39,720
week in practice. 
It's going to be hurting this 

187
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:41,120
week. 
Yeah, yeah. 

188
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,360
Dude, look at look at this run 
out. 

189
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,120
Look at this run out that that 
Fields gets. 

190
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,240
So he gets to play the Raiders, 
then he gets to play The Jets at

191
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,880
home. 
Does that scream 2 Rodgers pick 

192
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:56,760
sixes or what? 
And then and then he gets to 

193
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,640
play the Giants and then he gets
to play the Giants before. 

194
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,320
And then this is where this is 
where Russell Wilson's calf is 

195
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,720
going to. 
I think he might start on the 

196
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,160
road at the Commanders, home to 
the Ravens, home to the Browns 

197
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,320
or Rd. road to the Browns. 
Those feel like if Fields is 

198
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:16,080
still doing this, then that 
feels like Russell Wilson. 

199
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:20,400
The problem with the matchup, 
like the Raiders, is that yes, 

200
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:24,200
in theory it's an easy matchup. 
But if you lose to this version 

201
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,120
of the Raiders team, that's like
a quick trigger benching, I 

202
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,640
think, like I think it could be 
over quickly if they lose this 

203
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,880
game. 
That's potentially what we just 

204
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:36,080
got with the Dolphins with with 
the Patriots and the Dolphins. 

205
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,760
Like you're like, I was looking 
at that game like please lose 

206
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,160
this game because if you lose 
this game, we're getting Drake. 

207
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,440
It's so embarrassing. 
You can't lose this game. 

208
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,520
And I think the Raiders would be
the Steelers version of that. 

209
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:47,960
Like you have to beat the 
Raiders. 

210
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,080
Just have to or or we're getting
or all of a sudden like you guys

211
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:54,240
won't believe it, but we they 
found this new cream and it 

212
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,360
healed as a calf. 
It it's totally good, man. 

213
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:03,280
Yeah, Russell Wilson, long time 
been a fake science guy. 

214
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,320
Didn't you come out with some 
water that was supposed to? 

215
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,080
That's what I was saying. 
You got the nano bubble water. 

216
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:13,400
Yeah, Yeah, yeah. 
So that's very, yeah, very 

217
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:16,040
curious over there in 
Pittsburgh. 

218
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,760
Let's get to the the meat of 
today's show. 

219
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:22,920
We're going to go back to the 
bag defending, victory lapping, 

220
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,200
so on and so forth. 
For people who are new to the 

221
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,760
show, the the quickest way to 
think about it, victory lapping.

222
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,400
Think of them as like a buy high
player for your re draft 

223
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:33,600
leagues. 
They're guys that have had good 

224
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,400
performances and expect that to 
continue. 

225
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,800
Think of bag defending sort of 
like a buy low. 

226
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,360
This is someone who is probably 
ranked higher than they 

227
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,400
performed so well this season, 
but there's still reasons for 

228
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,560
optimism, even if they performed
poorly so far. 

229
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:52,560
And then panic button is kind of
like a sell low or like maybe 

230
00:11:52,560 --> 00:11:57,400
even, you know, talking dropping
these guys in your in your 

231
00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,800
redraft like depends on the 
context, obviously, but general 

232
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:03,720
idea is these guys have been 
much worse than the preseason 

233
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:08,480
expectations were. 
So we'll go ahead and start here

234
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,440
on the positive side with the 
victory lapping. 

235
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,600
I'll give it to you first, 
David, because you were on time 

236
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,240
today. 
I got to got to punish Pat a 

237
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:19,280
little bit with the first first 
quarter suspension like Kian 

238
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:20,880
Coleman for not showing up on 
time. 

239
00:12:21,680 --> 00:12:22,760
I'm. 
Going to be a reminder though, 

240
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:24,800
I'm running for a touchdown as 
soon as you give me the ball. 

241
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:30,560
Yeah, mine, mine, mine's very 
easy. 

242
00:12:30,560 --> 00:12:33,080
Chase Brown. 
Chase Brown is, is probably 

243
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,760
going to finish as one of the 10
most valuable running backs in 

244
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,600
fantasy this year. 
He is getting used in the red 

245
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,600
zone. 
He's getting used in the passing

246
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:43,320
game. 
I believe he doesn't lead the 

247
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:47,280
NFL in yards per carry anymore 
because Tyrone Tracy does after 

248
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,160
after that game against the 
against the Seahawks. 

249
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:55,160
But yeah, I mean, it's exactly 
my my exact thesis played out. 

250
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:58,520
Zach Moss is a total ham and 
Egger who definitely is not 

251
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:02,080
going anywhere, but it's well. 
He did get injured. 

252
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,280
Did you see that then? 
He came, he came back, he came 

253
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:05,160
back. 
Yeah, he's all right. 

254
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,680
He came back, he came back in 
that drive, but they needed a 2 

255
00:13:08,680 --> 00:13:10,320
point conversion in the fourth 
quarter. 

256
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:16,520
Chase Brown, they like, you know
it just the, the coaches, it's 

257
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,560
such a funny thing where coaches
want to do things their way 

258
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,440
until they're one and four and 
they have to win a game against 

259
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,000
the Ravens and they're like, all
right, well, Zach Moss, thank 

260
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,800
you very much for your service, 
but you're what do you got 3 

261
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:32,360
rushes yesterday? 
I think I I. 

262
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,800
Don't think it was that low but 
I could be wrong. 

263
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,960
I I stopped, I stopped looking 
at the at the rushing part of 

264
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:41,200
the box score as as Jamar 
Chase's number just kept going 

265
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:45,800
higher and higher. 
But I do know I do know that 

266
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:47,360
here I can I can pull it up 
right now. 

267
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,800
Brown got yeah. 
Brown got 12 rushes, 9 for Moss.

268
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:54,440
Brown got 3 targets in the 
passing game. 

269
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,360
Moss got four and actually had 
one nice little run. 

270
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:01,880
But yeah, it's it's pretty it's 
pretty jover for Moss as as the 

271
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,440
lead back and Chase Brown is is 
going to get there. 

272
00:14:04,560 --> 00:14:07,320
Which is not to say there will 
not be some lean weeks, because 

273
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,360
there will be because they still
don't trust him in pass 

274
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,800
protection. 
But he's the, he's the dynamic 

275
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:14,240
one there. 
Yeah. 

276
00:14:14,680 --> 00:14:17,880
Pat, I have a slightly different
take than Davis here, but 

277
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,400
curious your thoughts. 
Are you on board with this? 

278
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,160
Yeah, I'm I agree. 
With the general sentiment for 

279
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:25,320
sure, go ahead. 
Sorry, yeah. 

280
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,520
The general sentiment I agree 
with because he looks great. 

281
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:31,120
He looks really good. 
Like that's that's the biggest 

282
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:36,160
thing is that Chase Brown was, 
you know, a day three running 

283
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:41,320
back who was athletic, but like 
not that big, not like tiny, but

284
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,440
not like he kind of had this 
weird profile. 

285
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:45,680
He's like sort of a college 
workhorse, but he didn't have 

286
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:49,120
the size of an NFL workhorse. 
And he was athletic, but he 

287
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,920
didn't really show much burst. 
Like a lot of the advanced stuff

288
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,400
didn't really like him as 
prospect. 

289
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:59,720
And then he basically couldn't 
challenge Semaj P Ryan or Joe 

290
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:04,000
Mixon for touches as a rookie. 
And so you're like the floor is 

291
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:08,640
kind of low here of like who how
good this dude is, but he looked

292
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:10,680
really good. 
Like he looks awesome. 

293
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:14,640
So and that you know, the 
advanced numbers have been 

294
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:19,400
really into him the whole way. 
I mean, even after this past 

295
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,000
week. 
So the samples getting like less

296
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:25,880
small, but he has a 56% success 
rate in NFL next Gen. stuff, 

297
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,240
which is the second highest in 
the league behind Chuba Hubbard.

298
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:32,840
He's got 42 rush hours over 
expected, which is pretty 

299
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,240
strong, especially given that he
hasn't had that much of a 

300
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:39,680
workload. 
His his per attempt stuff is 

301
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:44,080
pretty good as well. 
So I think that, you know, Chase

302
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:48,120
Brown, the biggest leap of faith
was that this dude in my mind is

303
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:52,080
especially as his price rose was
like, is this guy actually that 

304
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,080
good to? 
Me, it wasn't even. 

305
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,720
He looks really good. 
It's about can he score 

306
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:57,840
touchdowns? 
Can't. 

307
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,320
Will they give him the ball 
inside the five yard line when 

308
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,360
they have Moss? 
And the answer is yes. 

309
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:07,920
Well, I, I think the answer was 
no, unless he showed he could do

310
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:08,600
it. 
You know what I mean? 

311
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:11,320
Like Moss was kind of penciled 
in for that stuff. 

312
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,000
Like pretty, I think I thought 
that maybe he had flipped in the

313
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,080
training camp, but then to start
the season, he, he hadn't. 

314
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,840
So I think he had to, you know, 
show enough talent to kind of 

315
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:22,840
like make the Bengals 
reconsider. 

316
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:24,760
And he he did that like 
immediately. 

317
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,520
I will say just a couple things 
I wanted to say. 

318
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:33,520
One, I still think Zach Moss, so
he had two inside the five 

319
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:35,400
attempts this past week to one 
for Brown. 

320
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,800
On the season. 
He has 64% of the inside the 

321
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,440
five attempts. 
Brown has just 13%. 

322
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,120
So I know Chase Brown does have 
a couple goal line targets, so 

323
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,120
that actually undersells him a 
little bit. 

324
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:47,840
He's got some more goal line 
work. 

325
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,640
Had a really nice touchdown last
week. 

326
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,040
I I'm not sending Zach Moss to 
zero. 

327
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:55,400
That is not the point. 
That is not the point of what 

328
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,160
I'm doing. 
If this is one of these 

329
00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,840
backfields like the, it's, you 
know what it is, It's Shamir 

330
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,200
Gibbs, David Montgomery, It's, 
it's the same. 

331
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,240
It's the same thing. 
Yeah, like a disc much 

332
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:07,440
discounted version of that I 
agree with. 

333
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,200
Like I was targeting both these 
guys in basketball. 

334
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:13,839
So I don't have like a dog in 
this fight of who I want to see 

335
00:17:13,839 --> 00:17:14,960
it. 
Honestly, I have both of them I 

336
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:18,040
think at like 10 eleven, 12% 
something like that. 

337
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,200
So I think they're both good. 
I did also want to say the Zach 

338
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,480
Moss thing. 
I know you guys are saying game 

339
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:24,880
back in the game. 
I missed that. 

340
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,760
The ankle injury, just like 
watching it on the field. 

341
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:30,280
Look, yeah, looks bad. 
And sometimes we see like Joe 

342
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:34,480
Mixon returned after his ankle 
injury in Week 2 and has missed 

343
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,800
3-4 weeks after that. 
Like he returned for one snap 

344
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,080
and then is now been out for 
like 3-4 weeks. 

345
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:45,080
So I think it's even more 
potentially bullish from a roll 

346
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,840
angle that like maybe the Zack 
Moss ankle swells up a bunch, 

347
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,800
you know, over the next couple 
days and he does miss some time.

348
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:56,080
There was a report this morning 
from Garifolo that said he 

349
00:17:56,120 --> 00:17:59,600
should be OK for Week 6. 
OK, got it. 

350
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,960
He. 
Avoided serious injury and and 

351
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,080
is believed to be OK as the team
moves into week 6. 

352
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,840
So that doesn't maybe he's maybe
he's not OK for week 6, but he's

353
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:08,560
not. 
He might waste a week or 

354
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:11,080
something like that. 
Yeah, I'm just always skeptical 

355
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,120
of these like, oh, the ankle 
sprain is mild. 

356
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,040
We heard it with Jonathan 
Taylor, we heard it with John 

357
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:16,720
Mixon. 
But that that is true. 

358
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:22,320
So it's it's probably on the 
more mild and as ankle sprains 

359
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:26,360
go, but that could still be like
a 12 week audition where Chase 

360
00:18:26,360 --> 00:18:29,840
Brown has a chance to prove 
himself in the pass protection 

361
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,080
side of things. 
I'm skeptical he'll check the 

362
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,880
boxes there. 
But like I think they actually 

363
00:18:36,120 --> 00:18:39,160
might give him a chance to do it
over Like they're not playing 

364
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:42,240
Trayvon Williams, They're not 
playing like I guess Chris Evans

365
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,040
isn't even around anymore. 
Like they're not they're not 

366
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,880
playing any of these guys. 
So I do wonder if we get like a 

367
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:51,000
couple workhorse Chase Brown 
games and if he can like hold up

368
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,640
OK in the past pro stuff, which 
I think is a huge if, but if he 

369
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,280
can, like his ceiling could be 
even higher than we're bashing 

370
00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,640
it right now. 
So yeah, that that was just my 

371
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:01,160
overall point. 
I agree with the the general 

372
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,680
sentiment from Davis. 
I think it's a a pretty big win 

373
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:10,800
for Chase Brown there. 
Let's move on to Pat's victory 

374
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:12,640
lap player. 
Pat, who do you have this week? 

375
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,560
I'm going to say Brian Thomas. 
Who? 

376
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:21,800
Nice. 
Yeah, I was pretty interested in

377
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:27,160
Thomas since he was drafted, you
know, first round wide receiver,

378
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:33,400
very athletic, really kind of, 
you know, a deep threat profile 

379
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:37,040
with size. 
He'd been there'd been some red 

380
00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:39,440
flags that popped up for me 
where like, you know, is he can 

381
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,440
be able to separate deep, but 
like talking to Connor Rogers 

382
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:44,920
and stuff who'd been looking at 
the film was like, no, no, he'll

383
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:46,880
be all right. 
So I was like, OK, I think I'm 

384
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,440
this isn't like a Keon Coleman 
thing where he, you know, just 

385
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:52,320
going to have to body guys up. 
He might be able to to get loose

386
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,440
as well. 
And part of it for me too is 

387
00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,320
like we've seen the teammate 
correlation stuff where it's 

388
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:02,360
like if Malik neighbors is him, 
then Brian Thomas scoring 

389
00:20:02,360 --> 00:20:04,440
1,000,000 touchdowns in that 
offense is probably going to be 

390
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:08,680
pretty good too. 
And yeah, just drafting he, but 

391
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:12,000
he was, I mean. 
He was kind of treated like the 

392
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:13,680
second round wide receivers in 
drafts. 

393
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:18,600
So I have a bunch of him from 
you know, that that 6-7 turn. 

394
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:20,440
Now I didn't exclusively take 
him or anything. 

395
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:24,280
I was taking lab with Conquie 
and you know, all those dudes 

396
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:29,040
there, Deonte Johnson JSN like I
mixed it up, but you know, 

397
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,120
skipping the running backs in 
that range. 

398
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,600
You know, if you could have 
taken a Camara, you know, there 

399
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:39,120
that that's felt pretty bad for 
for most of the, the season so 

400
00:20:39,120 --> 00:20:41,680
far. 
But Thomas, I wrote up in the 

401
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:43,600
walkthrough last week, I should 
have made him the cover boy. 

402
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:45,600
I almost made the cover boy. 
And then I thought this spot's 

403
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:48,200
too good for Dontavian Wicks. 
I can't how do I not do 

404
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:52,160
Dontavian Wicks, you know, score
a million points if you feel 

405
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,680
bad. 
By the way, I had I scored 201 

406
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,760
points in the spy with the 
Dontavian Wicks team. 

407
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:05,680
So so, you know, I, I, yeah, it 
got me to, but I Brian Thomas 

408
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,760
was the other guy that I thought
about and I was going to do life

409
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:11,480
Life of Brian. 
You know, that's a fun title, 

410
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,160
but he I was like, this is a 
really nice set up for him. 

411
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:19,680
And when you have a guy who's 
already through four weeks on 

412
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:23,000
par with the with the veterans 
and he's a freaking rookie. 

413
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,680
He's a he's a guy that we were 
like, this dude's raw. 

414
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:27,800
It's going to take him a while, 
like give this guy a little bit 

415
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,600
are. 
You worried at all that the Evan

416
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,880
Ingram PPR scam is going to is 
going to influence I? 

417
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:36,640
I am not, I am not. 
But I could see, I could see a 

418
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,880
mid IQ fantasy analyst out there
being like, well, keep in mind 

419
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,760
that his production has spiked 
with Evan Ingram out of the 

420
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,120
lineup. 
I could also see a mid IQ head 

421
00:21:45,120 --> 00:21:48,160
coach doing something bad and 
I'm afraid we have that. 

422
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:50,280
Trevor Lawrence is, I think 
Trevor Lawrence is kind of just 

423
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:51,720
doing his thing right now. 
Yeah. 

424
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,000
Do you really, do you really 
think Press Taylor is is in 

425
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,200
Trevor Lawrence's ear? 
Doesn't really seem. 

426
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:59,760
No not really I I agree but I 
just man this Jags coaching 

427
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:01,480
staff doesn't inspire a ton of 
confidence. 

428
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,120
No, and that's on. 
That's honestly the biggest 

429
00:22:04,120 --> 00:22:05,960
reason why I didn't go with him 
as a cover boy because I was 

430
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:07,760
like, I wrote up this whole 
thing about how they're not 

431
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:09,920
passing on 1st down. 
They're like doing a bunch of 

432
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,680
dumb stuff that seems to be 
limiting Lawrence, and Lawrence 

433
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:14,040
is having to win in spite of 
them. 

434
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,360
And I think that you could even 
say, you know, last week he kind

435
00:22:16,360 --> 00:22:19,040
of won despite, you know, he has
to pull it out at the end. 

436
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,120
Like they're not really setting 
him up for success. 

437
00:22:21,120 --> 00:22:25,840
I think he'd lost nine straight 
games before this past win. 

438
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:30,480
So yeah, it's it's definitely 
that is the real concern for me.

439
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,080
I'm less concerned about the 
Evan Ingram part of it, but just

440
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,800
like this offense being well 
designed and them featuring the 

441
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,640
right guys is definitely a 
little bit worrisome. 

442
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,240
But if we just like zoom out, I 
mean, you're talking about a 

443
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:46,320
first round rookie who has 2.76 
yards per outrun now and is 

444
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:50,200
pretty clearly the number one on
his team and also has a 12.98 

445
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:53,480
out, which is deep. 
But not, he's not like 16. 

446
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:55,560
Like he's not a one trick pony 
deep threat guy. 

447
00:22:55,880 --> 00:23:01,000
He's, he's operating like as a 
true #1 like a 12.9 A dot with 

448
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,800
a, with a big target chair. 
It's like a classic alpha wide 

449
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:07,800
receiver type of mark. 
So I'm, I'm pretty excited about

450
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,080
being able to get Thomas in the,
the 6th 7th round. 

451
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,520
I think especially, you know, as
we we move down the stretch, 

452
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,080
he's I think going to help team 
stand out a little bit. 

453
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:23,120
I agree with this one and you 
guys know me my my brain is 

454
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:26,320
pretty broken and I can only 
think in terms of Marvin 

455
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,680
Harrison when I think about any 
rookie wide receiver. 

456
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:32,960
But let's just say it, Brian 
Thomas has been a better wide 

457
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,320
receiver than Marvin Harrison so
far this year. 

458
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,760
I think people think of this 
season as like neighbors Marvin 

459
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,240
Harrison than everyone else. 
From a fantasy perspective, it's

460
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:47,200
actually been neighbors tier of 
his own, then Thomas and then 

461
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:51,640
Jefferson below Brian Thomas, 
both in terms of PPR scoring. 

462
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,400
He's slightly below him in 
targets for route run. 

463
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:56,120
You talked about that E dot 
thing, Pat. 

464
00:23:56,120 --> 00:23:58,440
That's what I'm worried about 
with Marvin Harrison a little 

465
00:23:58,440 --> 00:23:59,640
bit. 
He's being used at this like 

466
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:04,400
crazy high E naughty 15 averaged
up the target like that's that's

467
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:06,560
really high compared to any 
other top wide receiver. 

468
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,040
So again, this isn't to to bury 
Marvin Harrison. 

469
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,240
He's at a fine start to his 
rookie year, but Brian Thomas 

470
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:15,840
has, I've been that dude so far,
really impressive 24% targets 

471
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:19,000
for that run as a rookie with 
all that target competition, 

472
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,000
considering like how many of 
those have been deep targets, 

473
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,040
it's like a really, really 
valuable role he has there. 

474
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:27,440
So yeah, I'm I'm all on board 
on. 

475
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,560
This and he's good like he's 
he's he's drawing targets. 

476
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:33,280
He's he's yeah, he looks great 
out there. 

477
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:37,840
So, yeah, yeah. 
He's a fun guy to watch. 

478
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,200
Davis any? 
Any final thoughts on Brian 

479
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,400
Thomas there? 
Well, you, you did. 

480
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:47,960
You did skip a rookie wide 
receiver who did score the only 

481
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:52,240
touchdown for his Four and O 
team last week and is about to 

482
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,520
see 9 1/2 targets tonight. 
It's just interesting. 

483
00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:02,480
Yeah, that is, that is curious. 
Yeah, well, we'll, we'll see on 

484
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,240
Xavier Worthy. 
I just would like to see. 

485
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:07,560
Unironic. 
We are actually about to get a 

486
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,320
lot of information about him 
tonight. 

487
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:12,160
Like if if they're brutal 
tonight and he kind of dont 

488
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,720
avian Wicks. 
Is it not good? 

489
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,080
Really not good across the 
board. 

490
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:20,280
Not good for the best ball bags,
but don't like with Xavier 

491
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,160
worthy. 
I mean, think about like Tyree 

492
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:25,640
Kill, like Tyree Kill started 
out as the hybrid running back 

493
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:30,440
wide receiver for them. 
Like I, I guess he's such a, he 

494
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:35,280
does something so well and then 
he also is like skinny and, you 

495
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:39,320
know, unrefined in certain ways.
He is kind of getting better 

496
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,320
every week. 
Like I to be honest, to be 

497
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,680
honest, I actually as like a 
Chiefs fan and a worthy guy. 

498
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:47,520
I, I'm really not worried. 
I, I think he's probably pretty 

499
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:50,280
up to it. 
And I think Andy Reid, like Andy

500
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,440
Reid kind of in a way, don't you
feel like he's kind of a sicko? 

501
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,960
Like he's like, you're going to 
make me win football games with 

502
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,480
Juju Smith, Schuster, Nico 
Remigio and Xavier. 

503
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,000
Morgan. 
Like Challenge, except he's kind

504
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,400
of like you. 
You have no idea how many 

505
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:06,080
laterals and how many ring 
around the Rosies are about to 

506
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:07,240
be called in this game against 
the. 

507
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:08,520
Same. 
They're about to sign Sammy 

508
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:10,600
Watkins and have Cream Hunt 
throw him a touchdown. 

509
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,080
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
Sammy Watkins is going to be 

510
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,280
achieved by week nine. 
Yeah, I, I don't know if that's 

511
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,760
been reported yet, but that is 
that's coming. 

512
00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:24,200
Yeah, I do have Noah Gray 
starting in a $2000 buy in 

513
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:28,960
multiple, multiple. 
Yeah, I'm definitely having a 

514
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:29,960
good season on. 
That later. 

515
00:26:32,360 --> 00:26:35,960
That's OK. 
OK, so I benched Mark Andrews in

516
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:40,280
two main events and honestly, I 
wasn't even mad that he got to 9

517
00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,240
points. 
I was like, whatever, like, you 

518
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,160
know, you know what? 
I were you mad when you saw that

519
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,480
that 8 coming up off the ground 
on that touchdown after Mark 

520
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,760
Andrews got it down to the one 
because I was I was pretty mad 

521
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:54,160
because because Charlie Golar, 
man, I've. 

522
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,680
Already written those. 
I've already sent those bags to 

523
00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:57,960
the bank examiner. 
Bank Exam. 

524
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:03,120
He's already written those off. 
Yeah, it's I mean he had less 

525
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:07,640
you the third most points on his
team out of the tight ends so. 

526
00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,560
Sam, do you regret carving out 
Mark Andrews and Travis Kelsey 

527
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:13,400
from your Don't Draft Elite 
tight Ends take? 

528
00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:21,600
I don't remember doing that. 
I don't. 

529
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,440
I don't think I did. 
That don't don't take elite 

530
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,200
tight ends unless it's the very 
worst one. 

531
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:29,560
You're calling Travis Kelsey the
very. 

532
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,400
Worst. 
No, I'm calling Mark Andrews the

533
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,880
very worst one. 
I'm giving you credit for also 

534
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,920
having Kelsey in there who 
hasn't been good but at least 

535
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:40,960
hasn't been angers. 
Yeah, yeah, let let me pull up 

536
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:44,880
the the Andrews stuff. 
Yeah, it's. 

537
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,080
It's not good. 
You don't even need, you don't 

538
00:27:48,120 --> 00:27:51,520
even need to pull it out because
00 wouldn't be that much of a 

539
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:55,480
difference. 
Yeah. 11% Mark Andrews does not 

540
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:59,360
does not feel great right now, 
that's for sure Yeah, that's no 

541
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:02,360
God. 
OK I'll move on to mine. 

542
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,200
We talked about this to to start
the show. 

543
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,960
Pat was not here so I'll I'll 
keep it quick so people don't 

544
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,440
have to listen to us talk about 
Rico Daddles twice. 

545
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:14,240
He's he's my victory lap. 
This one's pretty simple I 

546
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,160
think. 
Like honestly, if you want to 

547
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:20,640
read the case on Rico Daddell, 
just read Pat's article before 

548
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:22,560
the season. 
I think that explains it pretty 

549
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:24,320
well. 
The bet on Rico Datal was never 

550
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:28,000
that he was some superior 
talent, it's just that he was 

551
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:31,240
clearly, in my opinion, a much 
better talent than, you know, 

552
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:35,400
close to 30 year old Ezekiel 
Elliott. 5 foot three, 170 LB 

553
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,320
deuce spawn. 
You know that there's nobody 

554
00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:40,880
else in this roster that post 
any kind of threat for the early

555
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,440
down work. 
It did take a couple weeks. 

556
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,800
They did try to mix in Zeke 
early on. 

557
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,280
They tried out their other 
options because again, Rico 

558
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,280
Dowdle is not some amazing 
talent. 

559
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:54,320
But Fast forward to Week 5, he's
got 70% of the rushing attempts,

560
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:57,520
50% of the snaps. 
He kind of, you know, got his 

561
00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:02,160
way to low end RB1 utilization 
status there with that type of 

562
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,400
role. 
And he got 100 yards and a 

563
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,480
touchdown, caught a pass 
downfield. 

564
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:10,080
He actually has 20% targets for 
route run on the season and is 

565
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:12,320
limited pass catching work. 
So I do think that's something 

566
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:15,200
he can do a little bit more of 
than he showed so far. 

567
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,480
But yeah, it's, again, I'm not 
lying to you guys and I'm not 

568
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,160
saying that Rico Dattle is like 
some amazing running back. 

569
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:24,440
Like on any other NFL team, I 
would not have been pumped about

570
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:27,400
drafting Rico Dattle, but. 
Zeke is at 0. 

571
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,480
Dalvin Cook has not been 
activated from the practice 

572
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,520
squad duspon they are already 
done with the experiment. 

573
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:34,000
It's a clear. 
It's a clear win, clear, clear 

574
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:35,840
win. 
Yeah. 

575
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:38,840
Yeah, and it didn't feel good 
getting there. 

576
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:41,720
Like I to me, it's sort of a 
reminder that like God, some 

577
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,240
like fantasy football can be 
such a stressful game because 

578
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:48,440
like Rico, I do think it's a 
clear win, but like, I thought 

579
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,600
he was a clear loss like 3 weeks
ago. 

580
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:53,240
Like it's just like, God, this 
guy's not good. 

581
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:55,280
There's. 
Been a lot. 

582
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:58,840
Of often sucks there's. 
There's been a lot of It's so 

583
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,720
Jover. 
We're so Barox, Yeah, like 

584
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,160
Dulcavian Ricks. 
I've changed my mind four times 

585
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,840
I think already and I'm 
currently at It's Jover but 

586
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:10,440
looks. 
Pretty Jover, but did your tweet

587
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:12,240
about him not being able to use 
his hands? 

588
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,760
It's been pretty good. 
Yeah. 

589
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:17,840
It would have been nice to see 
him catch the ball. 

590
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:22,080
That would have been fun. 
I was like, I was very all in on

591
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:26,320
Wix talking about him briefly, 
but I did I will say like in my 

592
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,960
article, I'm talking to people. 
I did say multiple times like 

593
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:32,240
you guys don't understand how 
bad this dude's hands have been.

594
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:34,280
Like this isn't like normal 
drops. 

595
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,960
It's literally half of his 
targets on the season. 

596
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:40,840
He's dropping, straight up 
dropping the ball like slipping 

597
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,760
and doing weird things or like 
not coming out with contested 

598
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,680
catches. 
Like please please fix this on 

599
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,120
Davian Wicks. 
You're way too good of a route 

600
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,240
runner to have this shitty of 
hands. 

601
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:52,000
It doesn't. 
It doesn't make any sense. 

602
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,800
What do you think of Christian 
Watson low advance rate? 

603
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:00,680
Is Is Christian Watson the 
answer now? 

604
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:02,600
I think I think Romeo Dobbs 
might be the answer. 

605
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,880
Well, not he's getting suspended
for personal reasons. 

606
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:08,680
I guess it's just Jayden. 
Jayden was the answer. 

607
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:10,760
Remember when we thought Jay 
there was too much target 

608
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:12,600
competition for Jayden Ray to do
anything? 

609
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:14,960
That doesn't seem to be the case
now. 

610
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,920
No, they're the friends and 
family night snap counts. 

611
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:20,480
Those are always something you 
really want to look very 

612
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:22,720
powerful into when you're 
evaluating a player. 

613
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:29,120
Let's move on to bag defending. 
I'll start with you here, Pat. 

614
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,400
Who do you want to bag defend 
this week all? 

615
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:36,400
Right well, so I've got to save 
up now there's reports that we 

616
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:40,040
might get Drake may this week. 
OK, so I can't victory lap that 

617
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:43,320
yet because he's and not very 
good when he's actually been on 

618
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,880
the field for a hot 2nd and he 
probably won't be very good 

619
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:49,000
going against the Texans. 
So they they have pretty decent 

620
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:50,720
defense. 
So we're safe. 

621
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:52,800
We're probably going to be back 
defending Drake May this time 

622
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:54,960
next week. 
But for now, I'm going to bag 

623
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:58,560
defend Jalen Polk, who almost 
scored a touchdown. 

624
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:01,000
You know, foot comes down out of
bounds. 

625
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,280
Second, second time he's done 
that, by the way. 

626
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:07,400
Yeah, he, he went to the Garrett
Wilson School of of attention to

627
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:09,200
detail. 
It's it's not ideal. 

628
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,840
But wait, can we talk about 
quickly how dumb that rule is 

629
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:16,080
that if you're toe tapping on 
the sidelines, all you need to 

630
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:19,200
get is your toe down, but if 
you're toe tapping the back the 

631
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:22,080
end zone, you have to get your 
full heel down. 

632
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:26,000
It's like a different rule for 
that the annoying. 

633
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,280
No. 
No, not a great, not a great 

634
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:29,800
rule. 
Well, you want to know a double 

635
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:34,600
annoying thing about the rule is
that if your hand lands first in

636
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:38,000
a way that obviously would help 
you secure the ball, you're out.

637
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,800
But if you just get your toes 
down and land your ass on the 

638
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:45,960
ground because your toes were 
down first, it it, it's a catch.

639
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:48,200
It, it's a very, it's a very 
stupid rule. 

640
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:49,120
It's a. 
It's a very down rule. 

641
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:52,280
Yeah. 
But anyway, I have got a ton of 

642
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:53,520
poll. 
He's been horrible this year. 

643
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:57,120
He's got 0.58 yards per outrun. 
It's it's super jover. 

644
00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:00,760
Except if we get Drake may, I 
just think that breathing some 

645
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:04,160
life into the offense here will 
happen. 

646
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,680
I think pretty quickly because 
people you're seeing the stuff 

647
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:09,760
of there's there are two camps 
on the Drake may thing and one 

648
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,720
of the camps is that he's going 
to be really inconsistent and 

649
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:14,040
get crushed behind this 
offensive line. 

650
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,880
And that's true. 
But when he's not doing that, 

651
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,400
there's going to be some life in
the offense. 

652
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,880
It's going to actually have some
highs as opposed to just this 

653
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:25,360
grinded out awful slog that we 
we got with Brissett. 

654
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:28,960
So this was the idea here is 
that, you know, we were going to

655
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:32,160
get May early ish into the 
season and that his weapons 

656
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,840
would actually benefit from his 
ability to make play. 

657
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:38,640
So we haven't seen that yet, but
I think we're going to see it 

658
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:41,960
starting in Week 6. 
And so bag defending, drafting 

659
00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:46,240
his #1 receiver. 
I like that this was also mine 

660
00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:49,680
this week. 
I fully agree with this. 

661
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,160
And also I have a ton of Polk, 
so it's probably a little bit of

662
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,760
cope in there as well. 
The other notes I'll add in is 

663
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,560
the return of Kendrick Bourne, 
Although I do expect Bourne's 

664
00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:01,080
role to be bigger than it was in
Week 5, the return of Bourne did

665
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:04,320
not impact Polk's route rate at 
all. 

666
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:07,720
He was actually up to 97% route 
participation. 

667
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:11,719
So, yeah, that was good to see. 
And then, yeah, just like a 

668
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:15,840
percent may take, like my Jacoby
percent take is if he could be 

669
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:20,080
like a game manager, as like a 
backup quarterback on a team 

670
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,560
with good weapons, he could be 
pretty good. 

671
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:24,000
Like we've seen that the past 
couple years. 

672
00:34:24,159 --> 00:34:27,560
But this environment where the 
whole line is terrible, the wide

673
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:31,080
receivers are terrible and he 
has to try to go like hero ball 

674
00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,920
mode is not who Jacoby percent 
is. 

675
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:36,320
And that sounds really obvious. 
But like I actually think some 

676
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:39,280
of the limitations of the 
patriots weapons and online 

677
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:44,159
could actually benefit from like
the Yolo play style of Drake 

678
00:34:44,159 --> 00:34:45,199
May. 
He's going to make a ton of 

679
00:34:45,199 --> 00:34:47,040
mistakes. 
He'll probably make a ton of 

680
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,560
sacks, but at least there can be
some fun playmaking here. 

681
00:34:50,199 --> 00:34:53,960
Jacoby Brissett can just not get
it done from the playmaking 

682
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,920
aspect of things. 
So I am excited to see how that 

683
00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:00,000
unlocks the Patriots weapons. 
I think even Hunter Henry here, 

684
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,480
someone I'm a little bit more 
excited about, just like a 

685
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:06,280
little bit more scramble drill 
situation stuff with Drake Man 

686
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:09,920
or said, or maybe he can get 
open for a couple more bigger 

687
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,320
chunk plays. 
So yeah, I'm with Pat on this 

688
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:13,400
one. 
Yeah. 

689
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:18,760
You would trade interceptions 
and lost fumbles for some throws

690
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:21,800
that that produce fancy points. 
Like just like adding some 

691
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,360
volatility. 
What includes negative outcomes 

692
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:28,000
would still be like, so good for
the skill players in this 

693
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,160
offense. 
Like, it's just where they score

694
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:33,800
10 points against the Dolphins. 
Like you just can't like, score 

695
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,280
20 and lose by 20. 
That's way better for us. 

696
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:39,840
You know, don't don't lose by 7 
and score 10 or whatever. 

697
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:42,960
Yeah. 
The one thing I will say in Polk

698
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,720
is the whole offseason I was 
like, there's no way this can 

699
00:35:45,720 --> 00:35:48,120
fail. 
He's going to have a huge role. 

700
00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,640
The only way he can fail is if 
he's Jonathan Mingo. 

701
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:53,800
And then I pull up the per route
stats and I'm like, oh God, did 

702
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:55,920
I just draft Jonathan Mingo 2 
point O? 

703
00:35:55,960 --> 00:36:01,040
So I'm not calling him that yet.
But I will say the the one 

704
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:04,720
hesitation I have with this take
is just like, besides the almost

705
00:36:04,720 --> 00:36:07,840
TD there actually OK. 
He said two like almost huge 

706
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:09,520
plays, which I think are skewing
the stats. 

707
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,160
It was for San Francisco. 
We had that sideline catch where

708
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:15,080
I think he got inbounds. 
They didn't call that complete 

709
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:17,720
the almost touchdown here. 
So that that's skewing things. 

710
00:36:17,720 --> 00:36:21,600
Those two plays would make him 
look better, but he hasn't 

711
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:23,360
looked great as an individual 
player. 

712
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:25,520
He has 74 yards through five 
weeks. 

713
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:30,240
That's that's not great, that's 
not great. 

714
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:35,000
His his entire season long stat 
line 974 and one would be like a

715
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:42,240
pretty good week. 
So it's like not great, but but 

716
00:36:42,240 --> 00:36:45,440
hopefully we get Drake may added
some value and and you know, 

717
00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:47,760
Dave, you've talked about like 
his Drake may did not have a 

718
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:51,520
good online in in college. 
So I'm hoping, I'm hoping the 

719
00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:55,960
online stuff is not as dire for 
him as it has been for Berset. 

720
00:36:57,480 --> 00:36:59,880
Yeah. 
Yeah, that that that literally 

721
00:36:59,880 --> 00:37:04,720
like the it's like, well, maybe 
we have maybe we have bad habits

722
00:37:04,720 --> 00:37:07,400
getting learned and maybe this 
is bad for Drake may long term, 

723
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:12,840
but he's going to come firing 
like that's. 2025 Pats problem. 

724
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:17,040
That's 2025 Pats problem 100. 
Percent, yeah, you you can find 

725
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:19,880
a way to sell them in dynasty 
for like Shakur Sanders or 

726
00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:21,520
something. 
At that point, you'll you'll 

727
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:25,160
figure out a way out. 
All right, Davis, unless you 

728
00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:29,600
have anything final words to say
on the Polk stuff, who is your 

729
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:33,640
bag defending player this week? 
You know, mine is actually kind 

730
00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:35,360
of related to the Brian Thomas 
junior. 

731
00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:39,440
I'm going to bag defend Roma 
Dunze because I think the 

732
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:42,920
thesis, I think ultimately 
probably it's going to have 

733
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:45,200
played out too slow to help our 
advance rates. 

734
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,080
Like he might like we might 
already be. 

735
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:50,480
It's the classic like, oh, my 
10th place teams just moved to 

736
00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:56,000
6th place this week. 
But Caleb looks a lot better 

737
00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:57,480
now. 
Granted, the Carolina Panthers 

738
00:37:57,480 --> 00:38:01,560
are not an NFL caliber defense, 
but we have like multiple games 

739
00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:04,400
of him kind of stringing things 
together, figuring it out on the

740
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:06,400
run. 
The run game is better, which is

741
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:08,960
like such a you know, it's 
obviously what a ball number 

742
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:12,960
would say, but just like a lot 
less 3rd and 10s second and 12 

743
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,800
type situations. 
That is a huge help to a rookie 

744
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,160
quarterback. 
Comet looks pretty good. 

745
00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:20,760
DJ Moore. 
I mean, I I got to say for 

746
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:23,600
victory lapping, I think I was 
definitely right to be hammering

747
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:27,800
DJ Moore there like DJ Moore, 
just a great football player. 

748
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:34,280
But Keenan is pretty clearly 
like 3032 year old wide receiver

749
00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:37,720
with lower body injuries. 
Who and like Sam, people are 

750
00:38:37,720 --> 00:38:39,000
always in your mentions about 
this. 

751
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:40,680
Like look how good he was last 
year. 

752
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:44,760
So yeah, he was really good on a
team that fired everyone, fired 

753
00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:46,600
everyone associated with the 
team. 

754
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:50,640
They were they were so good that
anyone like the Chargers fired 

755
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:52,880
their their like lunch ladies 
because everyone. 

756
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:54,600
Was. 
So bad. 

757
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:59,600
Yeah, it's, it's, it's like he 
can't, I think he can still like

758
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:03,000
get open and do it, but he can't
do it all game consistently. 

759
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:05,080
You should have, you should have
victory lap the Fat Keenan 

760
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:07,440
narrative because that, that 
narrative is looking pretty 

761
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,520
good, yeah. 
Yeah, maybe he really will. 

762
00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:13,760
Work for Conde Nast now. 
Yeah, the Keenan's, the Keenan's

763
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:17,400
stuff like it's one of those 
things where it's, so I I dove 

764
00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:22,240
deep into the pre snap motion 
stuff this past year and Keenan 

765
00:39:22,240 --> 00:39:26,680
was the guy who led the league 
in percentage of his yardage 

766
00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:30,000
receptions. 
That was from like schemed fast 

767
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,440
motion usage, which is one of 
those data points were like, 

768
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:34,640
there's not AI. 
Haven't looked at that for a 

769
00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:36,360
while. 
I can't say like I confidently 

770
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,280
know how to interpret that. 
The other players on that list 

771
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:42,520
are like Jaden Reed, Debo 
Samuel, like guys like that, 

772
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:46,320
where I actually take it as a 
bullish indicator for Keenan. 

773
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,720
Maybe it was just my bias. 
I was saying, like, this is 

774
00:39:49,720 --> 00:39:53,000
actually a pretty big red flag 
that the environment, the 

775
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,720
coaching situation is completely
changed. 

776
00:39:55,720 --> 00:39:57,200
Now. 
He's not on a Chargers team with

777
00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:00,600
Justin Herbert, who gets the 
ball out on time and he's 

778
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:01,800
surrounded. 
He's not surrounded by, you 

779
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:05,040
know, Darius Davis and Quinton 
Johnson running outside routes 

780
00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:06,680
now. 
He's now on a team with like, DJ

781
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:09,520
Moore, Roma Dunze, a rookie 
quarterback who's not 

782
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:13,440
necessarily known for like. 
Hitting, you know, guys on time 

783
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:16,440
in the short area of the field. 
So yeah, I, I was just really 

784
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:19,440
skeptical of the Keenan Allen. 
Like, oh, I, I totally 

785
00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:22,840
acknowledge he was on on pace 
last year for like 140 catches, 

786
00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:26,840
like 1000 something yards. 
I totally like got the bull 

787
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:28,800
case, but I was just not buying 
that. 

788
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:31,960
That was something that was 
sticky moving year over year. 

789
00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:34,320
But you know, we'll see this 
early for him. 

790
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:41,160
I just want to say on Keenan, I 
just want us to to remember that

791
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:45,560
when he's going in the 15th 
round, is Quinn Ewers clear #1 

792
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:49,480
next year that we should draft a
little, you know? 

793
00:40:49,720 --> 00:40:52,520
Say that that I think I, I think
I'll, I'll be in now. 

794
00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:55,000
Where do you have Quinn Ewers 
playing and is is he the 

795
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:57,600
Cleveland quarterback I. 
Think he's I think he's the 

796
00:40:57,600 --> 00:41:02,680
Panthers quarterback. 
Quinn Ewers with Xavier Lee get 

797
00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:04,680
I. 
Think that's true? 

798
00:41:04,720 --> 00:41:06,000
That's true. 
They've got Tiante. 

799
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:08,000
Yeah, you're right. 
It needs to be, it needs to be a

800
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,440
tear down. 
So so the the Browns probably is

801
00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:12,280
the answer. 
They'll have Judy, so he'll 

802
00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:15,200
he'll he'll be there, although 
Judy might not really be on the 

803
00:41:15,240 --> 00:41:17,240
field. 
Yeah. 

804
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:22,560
Anyway, yeah, back to him 
reviving in a in a worse charger

805
00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:24,000
situation. 
But it looks pretty over. 

806
00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:26,600
It looks pretty. 
Over yeah, back to the Rome side

807
00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:28,600
of things. 
I I do agree with Davis there 

808
00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:31,280
also probably my bias. 
I drafted a shit ton of Rome, so

809
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:33,320
you can definitely point to 
that. 

810
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:36,960
But yeah, I think, I think the 
bears are figuring this thing 

811
00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:38,120
out. 
I actually thought your 

812
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:40,840
walkthrough article last week, 
Pat, was really interesting 

813
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:44,040
where I just kind of wanted to 
write off Caleb Williams is like

814
00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:45,600
dog shit through the 1st 4 
weeks. 

815
00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:47,960
And you pulled up some 
interesting stuff about how he's

816
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:51,320
shown like consistent, steady 
improvement over the first four 

817
00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:53,160
weeks of the season. 
And that obviously continued in 

818
00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:55,160
Week 5. 
Hyper accurate with all these 

819
00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:58,080
short area stuff, which I think 
is is pretty bullish. 

820
00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:02,920
Yeah, so let's see him against a
real defense. 

821
00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:06,920
Who do the Bears play next week?
Oh, the Jags. 

822
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:08,640
OK, so that's not a real 
defense. 

823
00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:11,400
That should be good. 
But they get the Jags and then 

824
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:12,880
Commanders in back-to-back 
weeks. 

825
00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:14,800
I guess commanders have been 
playing a little bit better on 

826
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:16,000
defense a little. 
Bit better but. 

827
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,640
No, no they haven't. 
Well. 

828
00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:21,600
The the buddy the Cleveland 
Browns do not count. 

829
00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:24,000
No result. 
Yeah, that's true, Browns. 

830
00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:25,880
The Cardinals. 
They played better against the 

831
00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:29,160
Cardinals. 
The the results against Kyler 

832
00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:32,440
Murray count like I don't know. 
They they actually don't know 

833
00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:35,960
either do. 
They OK, they beat the 49ers 

834
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:37,480
last week. 
Kyler was pretty fun. 

835
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:41,000
They beat the 49ers because 
Kyler Shanahan was like born 

836
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:42,880
without. 
I think he just like maybe 

837
00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:45,040
doesn't have adrenaline in his 
brain or something. 

838
00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:48,040
I It's hard for me to say what 
his deal is because he's clearly

839
00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:51,520
a football genius, but like he 
loses games his team has 

840
00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:55,680
absolutely no business losing. 
Can we talk about Zach Taylor, 

841
00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:57,880
who's got whatever this is plus 
a million? 

842
00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:03,920
He he played for a 56 yard field
goal like it was a chip shot 

843
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:05,920
like it was a chip. 
Shot well to be. 

844
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:09,200
It was the most hourly. 
Yeah, to be fair, I've never 

845
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:12,760
seen a red zone, a field goal 
over 55 yards missed on red zone

846
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:14,640
this year. 
They're they have 100% accuracy.

847
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:19,240
So I got I caught him. 
On red zone prime time, he goes,

848
00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:21,920
he gets it closer. 
I'm on red zone baby. 

849
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:25,040
That was crazy. 
I I could not believe that 

850
00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:28,040
they're running up the gut like 
not even attempting a pass there

851
00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:30,960
like they were on like the I 
was. 

852
00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:33,760
So I literally was just like, 
and I've been rooting for the 

853
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:35,720
Bengals. 
I had this lineup I mentioned 

854
00:43:35,720 --> 00:43:38,600
was a was a Bengals double 
stack, which is why I was 

855
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:45,000
especially aggrieved with this. 
I grow the ball, but they just, 

856
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:46,960
you know, they wouldn't do it. 
So I went. 

857
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:48,920
When he lined up with that kick,
I was like, miss it. 

858
00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:50,760
Miss this kick. 
I want to see the. 

859
00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:53,680
Ravens, I want to see the Ravens
punish them just like they did. 

860
00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:56,680
So God, that was that was that's
worse than I think anything 

861
00:43:56,680 --> 00:43:59,080
Shanahan's done, but very much 
in that camp. 

862
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:01,840
Yeah, giving Shanahan a tiny bit
of credit. 

863
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:05,200
The kicker? 
Jake Moody was ruled out. 

864
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:08,840
With an he played he played for 
a 19 yard field goal that the 

865
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:11,000
punter kicked at the end of the 
second-half. 

866
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:15,040
Yeah, but I, I guess I was 
thinking like for a punter who 

867
00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:17,400
like doesn't kick field goals, 
isn't there a big difference 

868
00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:20,320
between like a 20 yard field 
goal and like a 40 yard field 

869
00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:22,360
goal? 
What what I'm saying is that he 

870
00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:25,280
played for a field goal in an 
opportunity when he had. 

871
00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:28,120
A oh oh. 
I'm saying, I'm saying he had 

872
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:30,320
multiple opportunities to play 
for touchdowns and he didn't do 

873
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:32,160
it. 
They also like threw a couple 

874
00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:34,160
times. 
There was a third and three I 

875
00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:37,200
think where they have this 
really dumb pretty drop back 

876
00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:39,000
pass called. 
It's like you don't have a 

877
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:42,400
kicker, like just go like run 
the ball. 

878
00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:43,960
Now, I also had Jordan Mason on 
the slap. 

879
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:48,320
So, you know, I'm extremely 
biased, but I just run the ball 

880
00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:51,960
and you can run it again on 4th.
You know, if Shanahan hates to 

881
00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:55,040
go for it on 4th, but like, and 
maybe that's what maybe he knew 

882
00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:57,920
if you got a yard, you'd have to
go for it on on 4th and do 

883
00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:01,320
something sharp. 
But yeah, Shanahan needs someone

884
00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:04,600
to just like, I don't even need 
to like go to like a a course on

885
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:06,200
this. 
Like this one part of your games

886
00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:09,400
is so square. 
Yeah, it's frustrating. 

887
00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:13,440
Because he's such a genius, you 
know, he could like, why? 

888
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:16,560
Why is there a thing that like, 
we know better than Shanahan? 

889
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:20,560
This guy knows football like 
better than 99% of humans on 

890
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:22,720
Earth. 
And yet, like, we can sit here 

891
00:45:22,720 --> 00:45:25,520
and watch the game and be like, 
that's, that's really stupid. 

892
00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:30,000
These guys need like I think 
it's Amiko that's that has this 

893
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:34,040
tweet of like all the Shanahan 
coaching tree guys are like 

894
00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:36,800
genius schemers and play 
callers, but they need a 

895
00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:39,400
coaching assistant that just 
handles like in game decision 

896
00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:42,800
making on 4th down and clock 
management like just the little 

897
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:45,040
things like that. 
Even Andy Reid, I think. 

898
00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:46,880
Has this? 
He's gotten better, too. 

899
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:49,600
He's gotten better. 
He makes, he makes. 

900
00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:52,600
Some boneheaded mistakes in this
area as well. 

901
00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:54,840
He got better. 
He got better because he got 

902
00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:59,520
gifted God's greatest son like 
he like that's true. 

903
00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:02,160
Andy Reid did. 
Andy Reid said, oh, I have the 

904
00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:04,120
literal greatest dude to ever do
this. 

905
00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:07,160
He just converts these for fun, 
so I might as well. 

906
00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:10,600
And he still, he still doesn't 
always do it. 

907
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:14,080
He's kicked multiple field goals
this year inside the one yard 

908
00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:16,200
line with Pat as his 
quarterback. 

909
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:20,240
Yeah, although the guy playing 
Patrick Mahomes is not a great 

910
00:46:20,240 --> 00:46:22,040
actor this year. 
I like. 

911
00:46:22,240 --> 00:46:24,200
I'd like Patrick Mahomes to 
return from whatever. 

912
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:25,120
Sabbatical. 
He's on. 

913
00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:28,800
I've been workshopping this take
I I and I bet I'll be able to 

914
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:31,360
sell Sam on this one. 
The worst thing to happen to 

915
00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:32,840
Patrick? 
Career. 

916
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:35,960
Long term, like him breaking 
every record, all of Brady's 

917
00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:40,360
records, everything was having 
to win the way he won last year.

918
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:43,960
He, he basically has PTSD. 
He's like, you have no idea. 

919
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:46,960
The dark places I had to go to 
win a Super Bowl with Sky Moore 

920
00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:50,320
is my wide receiver 2 and Justin
Watson is my wide receiver 3. 

921
00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:54,880
Like he had to go so dark and he
can't, he can't get himself out 

922
00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:56,000
of it. 
You know what it is? 

923
00:46:56,240 --> 00:47:00,360
Yeah, it's the Brady career, but
you, he started in the middle. 

924
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:03,800
His first years were 2007, you 
know, and he's just going nuts. 

925
00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:06,840
It's amazing. 
And then he's going now it's 

926
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:11,560
like 2001, like like what we've 
returned to, you know, the Dion 

927
00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:14,640
branch years. 
It's just, I don't know, I would

928
00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:18,720
like us to go back to the high 
flying era as soon as possible. 

929
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:24,080
I think we're about to have the 
the 2019 era Brady where the 

930
00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:26,600
team trades a second round pick 
for Mohamed Sanu. 

931
00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:28,760
Now, I'm not sure if that's 
going to be, you know, Romeo 

932
00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:30,600
Dobbs or, or who who that's 
going to. 

933
00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:32,640
Be. 
It's going to be Darius. 

934
00:47:32,720 --> 00:47:36,760
Darius you. 
Could be the Mohamed Sanu a real

935
00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:39,200
life NFL. 
You know what is second round 

936
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:42,120
actually for Mohamed Sanu? 
It's Mooney. 

937
00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:44,280
It's Mooney. 
Bill Belichick would trade a 

938
00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:45,720
second off pick. 
Darnell Mooney. 

939
00:47:45,720 --> 00:47:49,880
Darnell Mooney, Yeah, I mean 
rocket shit. 

940
00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:54,520
See, that's what I'm saying. 
Sam is hoping the Patriots 

941
00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:55,480
trade. 
It's like a round pick for a 

942
00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:59,960
man. 1st with that, what we use 
our first round picks on, just 

943
00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:01,800
just trade a first round pick 
with Don on May. 

944
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:06,600
Come on man, you said on May. 
Well, besides that one, there's 

945
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:08,320
God, yeah. 
Yeah. 

946
00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:10,960
It's been a rough stretch. 
Matt Jones or Darnell Mooney? 

947
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:13,600
Which one? 
Oh, come on. 

948
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:16,960
It's not even close. 
It's not even close. 

949
00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:20,840
God, Matt Jones. 
It's always funny when I see him

950
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:22,640
on the Jack on the Jaguar 
sideline. 

951
00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:24,640
I'm like, oh, that's. 
It's so. 

952
00:48:24,640 --> 00:48:29,360
Funny these days it is fun. 
Anyways, that that was a great 

953
00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:31,840
draft class. 
Justin Fields, Trey Lance, Mac 

954
00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:35,320
Jones, Zach Wilson, just a bunch
a bunch of good quarterbacks 

955
00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:37,360
there from that generational 
class. 

956
00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:42,120
Let's move on to our panic 
button players from this week. 

957
00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:44,440
I'm going to go first. 
I got I got my bag of defense 

958
00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:47,320
stolen from me with Julian Polk.
So I'm going to go first here 

959
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:52,280
and panic button mine. 
And I'll be clear in how I 

960
00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:55,960
clarify this, but my panic 
button this week that I finally 

961
00:48:55,960 --> 00:49:00,960
came to the realization of is 
Dijon and Breece were not good. 

962
00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:03,640
Top six or seven picks stole. 
My yeah. 

963
00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:09,000
And this is far from a full on 
panic like these guys. 

964
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:12,200
If we're redrafting today I'm 
probably taking them in the mid 

965
00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:15,240
second, maybe even 1-2 turn. 
I'd have to actually map it out.

966
00:49:15,240 --> 00:49:18,040
But this is not like oh they 
suck they're busts. 

967
00:49:18,240 --> 00:49:23,000
No, I just pivoted at the end of
the season to trying to go for 

968
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:27,280
hero running back builds, taking
Bijan and Breece over Chase, 

969
00:49:27,280 --> 00:49:31,520
Jefferson, Tyree kill a Monra. 
I didn't have like crazily 

970
00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:36,520
skewed exposures but I ended up 
with 12% Breeze, 14% Dijon, and 

971
00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:41,360
then just 8% of Jefferson, 8% of
Chase, 5% of a Monra, 5% of 

972
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:45,560
Tyree kill. 
So not horrible, but certainly 

973
00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:49,480
would I would I trade 15% 
Jefferson. 

974
00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:53,680
You know what I make that swap 
with Jefferson and those running

975
00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:57,480
backs 100% like that. 
That is clear cut right now. 

976
00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:00,920
And I think also hammering the 
hero running back builds that 

977
00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:05,120
got me off of like I wasn't 
taking as much James Cook, 

978
00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:08,120
Kenneth Walker, guys like that 
as I was early in the draft 

979
00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:11,080
season because I was like, oh, I
got my hero RB build with the 

980
00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:14,000
Dijon and Priest. 
Don't need to take the plunge on

981
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:16,240
those guys. 
So I think that's hurt me a bit 

982
00:50:16,240 --> 00:50:18,280
as well. 
Just just in terms of like the 

983
00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:20,240
role in utilization. 
I think what's hurting these 

984
00:50:20,240 --> 00:50:24,480
guys is I thought that Bruce and
Bijan really had a chance to 

985
00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:27,640
separate as like the very few 
backs in NFL. 

986
00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:31,120
They were getting these crazy 
workhorse roles. 

987
00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:33,680
And the roles have just been 
like fine. 

988
00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:37,880
Like you look at utilization or 
on fantasy points, Bijan is 11th

989
00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:40,360
amongst running backs, Bruce is 
7th. 

990
00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:42,120
But that doesn't even really 
tell the full story because 

991
00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:44,640
they're just like, frankly, like
this sounds like a hot take. 

992
00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:47,760
But like just strictly looking 
at their roles, like what 

993
00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:49,840
they're doing with Dijon, 
Atlanta is not that different 

994
00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:53,200
from what they're doing with 
like DeAndre Swift in Chicago 

995
00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:57,920
with Tony Pollard in Tennessee. 
Like he just doesn't have this 

996
00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:02,600
like crazy work horse role above
what these other middling 

997
00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:04,760
talents have. 
And I think that's that's 

998
00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:07,440
frankly hurting him. 
There's been some weird stuff. 

999
00:51:07,520 --> 00:51:11,040
Big plays, call back by penalty,
I think just touchdowns not 

1000
00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:14,160
going his way that are going to 
change for both of these guys. 

1001
00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:17,880
But yeah, man, like I I think I 
think it was a mistake to like 

1002
00:51:17,880 --> 00:51:21,960
always take him above Chase and 
Jefferson in the first round 

1003
00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:25,680
this year. 
But curious what you guys think 

1004
00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:27,640
of that if you think I'm 
overreacting too much. 

1005
00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:30,480
To I think you're, I think 
you're overreacting to Bijon 

1006
00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:33,320
when actually if you wanted to 
have rose colored glasses, you 

1007
00:51:33,320 --> 00:51:36,360
could say Kirk Cousins kind of 
coming back is super bullish. 

1008
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:41,160
Bijon was playing on a short 
week, very clearly was injured 

1009
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:43,960
in my mind, like very clearly 
the way they were using him. 

1010
00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:46,960
So he only got used in outside 
zone runs. 

1011
00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:51,400
And you, why would you do that, 
Windhorst? 

1012
00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:54,120
You don't want to get piled up 
on, you don't want him having to

1013
00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:55,720
push through the pile. 
You want to get him into space, 

1014
00:51:55,720 --> 00:51:58,240
see if he can run a straight 
line and make something happen. 

1015
00:51:58,240 --> 00:52:01,480
Alger handled all this stuff in 
between the tackles. 

1016
00:52:01,880 --> 00:52:05,840
Now if he if if he has 18 
carries for 62 yards and four 

1017
00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:09,640
receptions for 17 yards against 
the Panthers this week, then 

1018
00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:12,080
yes, full on panic button. 
It's not coming back. 

1019
00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:16,880
It's Jover we and Bijan Robinson
becomes the Kyle Pitts of Adrian

1020
00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:18,720
Peterson. 
It's like very, very quickly, 

1021
00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:22,120
Reese. 
It took it took you a while to 

1022
00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:24,440
get to that line that was a. 
Lot of it's a good it was worth.

1023
00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:26,120
It was worth the walk, but I got
to. 

1024
00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:32,720
I got there, you got there. 
Now, Reese, I got to be honest, 

1025
00:52:32,720 --> 00:52:36,880
I don't really see a way back 
because the issue now is they 

1026
00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:40,600
play so slow. 
They play so fucking slow. 

1027
00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:44,720
They're not dedicated to getting
him the PPR scam stuff the way 

1028
00:52:44,720 --> 00:52:47,960
that Zach Wilson and Tim Boyle 
and these guys were dedicated to

1029
00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:52,760
getting him the PPR scam stuff. 
And you have the specter of what

1030
00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:56,160
he might just not get carries 
from the three yard line anymore

1031
00:52:56,240 --> 00:53:02,880
if if Braylon can do it so. 
So I, I think there definitely 

1032
00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:05,960
is a way back for Breece. 
My thinking is this almost has 

1033
00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:07,640
to be the low point of the 
season. 

1034
00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:09,800
Now, does that mean he's going 
to end up being worth like the 

1035
00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:12,880
one O 6 or the one O 5? 
No, it does not mean that. 

1036
00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:16,400
But I do think that this is 
probably as bad as we're going 

1037
00:53:16,400 --> 00:53:21,160
to feel because and to me, the 
way back is the PPR scam stuff 

1038
00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:24,320
he's had. 
His targets have been 68554. 

1039
00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:28,520
He's been involved consistently 
in the passing game. 

1040
00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:32,880
We also did see Braylon Allen 
get stuffed on a couple short 

1041
00:53:32,880 --> 00:53:36,320
yardage runs. 
Last week has not been like when

1042
00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:38,440
you go to the advanced numbers, 
Braylon Allen's been like 

1043
00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:41,640
totally whatever. 
He's he hasn't been now the eye 

1044
00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:42,920
test. 
I'm like this dude looks really 

1045
00:53:42,920 --> 00:53:47,600
good, but like I don't I, I 
wonder if we're just like liking

1046
00:53:47,600 --> 00:53:50,120
his running style to some extent
because he hasn't. 

1047
00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:53,480
I I find that a lot of the times
with running backs, by the way, 

1048
00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:56,240
where sometimes I watch him and 
I'm like, oh shit, this guy, 

1049
00:53:56,520 --> 00:53:59,440
this guy's killing it and his 
advanced stuff will be like, 

1050
00:53:59,520 --> 00:54:01,800
fine. 
I I find that I find that quite 

1051
00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:04,840
often. 
Yeah, so I'm, I, I'm this isn't 

1052
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:07,280
negative on Braylon Allen. 
I think Braylon Allen's good and

1053
00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:09,320
I think he's going to be a thorn
in Bruce Hall's side. 

1054
00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:12,320
But there's there was especially
after Bruce Hall is like 

1055
00:54:12,320 --> 00:54:14,160
combined for like 5 points in 
two weeks. 

1056
00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:16,040
You're like, is this dude even 
like they're starting running 

1057
00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:17,360
back now? 
Like what's going on? 

1058
00:54:18,040 --> 00:54:21,520
And I think he's still going to 
be very clearly like the high 

1059
00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:23,560
upside way to play that 
backfield the rest of the way. 

1060
00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:27,800
But this kind of level of boom 
bust is just should not be in 

1061
00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:32,160
the cards for what we paid. 
And you don't have to talk about

1062
00:54:32,160 --> 00:54:34,240
it like, well, he's going to get
used a lot of the receiving back

1063
00:54:34,240 --> 00:54:37,600
like that sounds cool if we 
drafted him in the third round, 

1064
00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:40,960
but it's pretty awful to have 
paid low on A5 four. 

1065
00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:44,680
So it's it's definitely, I think
I am panicking on briefs, but I 

1066
00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:47,320
guess I'm just saying like, I 
don't think it's completely 

1067
00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:50,320
over. 
I think in part they scored, 

1068
00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:54,240
they scored nine points against 
Denver and then 17 points 

1069
00:54:54,240 --> 00:54:56,840
against the Vikings. 
And to Davis's point, they play 

1070
00:54:56,840 --> 00:55:00,520
super slow. 
You know, Rogers has never been 

1071
00:55:00,880 --> 00:55:04,360
for whatever reason, you know, 
he's seems like a very confident

1072
00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:07,120
guy, but he Denver pushes his 
advantage. 

1073
00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:09,840
He's the better quarterback on 
the field in almost every game 

1074
00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:13,400
he's played. 
And yet they're trying to limit 

1075
00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:15,600
the number of drives that each 
team gets for some reason. 

1076
00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:20,720
I've never understood it, but I 
think it's turning the offense. 

1077
00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:23,920
Pretty clearly, yeah, I think 
what it is in the Rogers point 

1078
00:55:23,920 --> 00:55:27,800
not defending this is like smart
or but like what he thinks is 

1079
00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:30,960
that his advantage is being able
to call audible to the line of 

1080
00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:34,840
scrimmage, call different plays,
call out different hot routes, 

1081
00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:37,280
the wide receivers because he 
thinks he has the ability to 

1082
00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:40,600
read a defense so precisely he. 
Thinks if he tells all ten of 

1083
00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:43,280
his team mates what to do on a 
play, it can't possibly go 

1084
00:55:43,280 --> 00:55:44,440
wrong. 
Exactly. 

1085
00:55:44,440 --> 00:55:46,920
Yeah, Well, he should watch some
film for like, the last, you 

1086
00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:49,760
know, his entire career. 
Like what doesn't you know? 

1087
00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:52,080
They don't, they don't have, 
they don't have a film room 

1088
00:55:52,080 --> 00:55:57,160
inside of his ayahuasca cave. 
Yeah, it's just, it's just 

1089
00:55:57,160 --> 00:55:58,880
frustrating. 
So I'm like, dude, if you, if 

1090
00:55:58,880 --> 00:56:03,200
you played fast, like you know, 
you might get an extra like .75 

1091
00:56:03,200 --> 00:56:06,120
drives per game and like that 
probably is meaningfully 

1092
00:56:06,120 --> 00:56:07,840
impacting your, your career 
winnings. 

1093
00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:11,600
Yeah, someone pointed out that 
the target advantage is going 

1094
00:56:11,600 --> 00:56:14,120
down and stuff. 
Yeah, the target, the targets 

1095
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:15,840
are decreasing. 
But you know, we're looking at a

1096
00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:19,200
dude who's completely dropped 
off in scoring. 

1097
00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:24,600
You know, he had 1.8, you know, 
standard fantasy points 2 weeks 

1098
00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:28,200
ago. 
So to get 5 targets in that 

1099
00:56:28,200 --> 00:56:31,760
game, I think it's still like a 
little bit of a, a reason to not

1100
00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:35,080
to say, hey, we shouldn't like 
completely panic about this 

1101
00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:37,200
dude. 
His role has not evaporated. 

1102
00:56:37,240 --> 00:56:41,760
He's just he's not been running 
great, not been making plays on 

1103
00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:44,240
a, on an offense that's also 
really struggling. 

1104
00:56:44,240 --> 00:56:47,240
So who do they play this week? 
I think what we could really use

1105
00:56:47,240 --> 00:56:49,560
is a nice. 
Bills, Bills. 

1106
00:56:50,440 --> 00:56:51,960
That's yeah, it's not ideal, but
it's not. 

1107
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:53,840
It's not horrible, it's not bad,
it's not horrible. 

1108
00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:56,720
Yeah. 
Monday night on that one, we get

1109
00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:59,560
two more prime time games for 
Anderson Rodgers over the next 

1110
00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:02,400
couple weeks, Monday night 
against the Bills and then 

1111
00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:05,000
Sunday night the week after that
against the Steelers. 

1112
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:09,120
So that'll be some fun Twitter 
live tweeting. 

1113
00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:12,680
Either way, either either if an 
Aaron Rodgers is good or 

1114
00:57:12,680 --> 00:57:16,920
terrible, hopefully terrible. 
That'll certainly be fun to 

1115
00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:22,200
watch in prime time. 
Let's move on here to your panic

1116
00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:26,240
button player, Davis. 
I had a couple, I had a couple 

1117
00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:29,080
different ones here that I that 
I thought I'm gonna actually 

1118
00:57:29,080 --> 00:57:31,760
gonna do. 
I'm gonna, I'm gonna do a 

1119
00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:37,240
facetious one that I think is is
directionally informative in 

1120
00:57:37,240 --> 00:57:39,160
terms that it tells us we don't 
know shit. 

1121
00:57:40,120 --> 00:57:43,320
My panic button is gonna be 
Justin Jefferson in a very 

1122
00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:46,760
facetious way, because the thing
we were worried about with 

1123
00:57:46,760 --> 00:57:49,120
Justin Jefferson, his 
quarterback plays can be 

1124
00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:51,240
terrible. 
How could he possibly get there?

1125
00:57:52,200 --> 00:57:54,240
But it's so illustrative of the 
fact that we don't know 

1126
00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:56,520
anything. 
The reason that Justin Jefferson

1127
00:57:56,520 --> 00:58:00,000
is only like the third best wide
receiver in fantasy thus far has

1128
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:02,360
nothing to do with his 
quarterback play, has nothing to

1129
00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:04,760
do with his ability, has nothing
to do with Kevin O'Connell. 

1130
00:58:04,920 --> 00:58:06,680
It's that his team is simply too
good. 

1131
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:11,640
They have trailed for three 
minutes and 34 seconds of the 

1132
00:58:11,640 --> 00:58:13,440
entire season through five 
games. 

1133
00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:18,120
That is the second best record. 
Ever since the NFL has existed, 

1134
00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:22,600
that is the second best time 
that a team is as Trail I and I 

1135
00:58:22,600 --> 00:58:24,000
can't even remember when it 
would have been. 

1136
00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:27,680
So you're trying to say that you
were too Right on Justin 

1137
00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:32,640
Jefferson. 
No, I'm saying, I'm saying that.

1138
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:37,400
I'm saying, well, obviously I 
was right, but I, I'm going to, 

1139
00:58:37,680 --> 00:58:41,760
I'm going to end up not I, I 
think in the end I'm going to 

1140
00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:47,280
end up getting 1400 yards and 11
touchdowns and what should have 

1141
00:58:47,280 --> 00:58:53,640
been an 1800 yard 14 touchdown 
season probably because I mean, 

1142
00:58:53,640 --> 00:58:56,200
it's Week 5. 
The defense is too fucking good,

1143
00:58:56,400 --> 00:58:58,600
yeah. 
Darnell hasn't topped 28 pass 

1144
00:58:58,600 --> 00:59:03,800
attempts in a game yet. 
Like we're it, it's just, it's 

1145
00:59:03,800 --> 00:59:06,520
just, you know, it is what it 
is. 

1146
00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:10,360
And that that seems like the 
direction that we're heading. 

1147
00:59:12,080 --> 00:59:14,280
Yeah, this was kind of my take 
the past couple weeks. 

1148
00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:18,080
Like now we have the hamstring 
injury to Nico and obviously the

1149
00:59:18,080 --> 00:59:21,080
Rashid Rice injury happened, but
just purely because of that, I 

1150
00:59:21,080 --> 00:59:24,440
was like barely tie breaking to 
these other guys over Jefferson,

1151
00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:28,840
like CD Lamb, Nico, Rashid Rice,
like just just barely same tier.

1152
00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:31,320
So I didn't have that similar 
take of like, man, this this 

1153
00:59:31,320 --> 00:59:35,480
Vikings defense doesn't seem 
like a fluke to me of how well 

1154
00:59:35,480 --> 00:59:39,440
they play your your hope. 
If you're someone like me, is 

1155
00:59:39,440 --> 00:59:42,440
that Brian Flores has been in 
this position many times before.

1156
00:59:42,440 --> 00:59:44,840
Brian Flores been a defensive 
coordinator for like 25 years. 

1157
00:59:45,080 --> 00:59:48,640
And he kind of always gets found
out over the course of the year.

1158
00:59:48,720 --> 00:59:51,880
He's very aggressive. 
He's like insanely aggressive. 

1159
00:59:52,240 --> 00:59:56,120
And you know, you, you can only 
play that way for, for. 

1160
00:59:56,240 --> 00:59:57,440
Yeah. 
Someone literally just said in 

1161
00:59:57,440 --> 01:00:00,320
the chat kind of basically what 
happens is his blitz patterns 

1162
01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:03,960
sort of get figured out and then
it ends up being it ends up 

1163
01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:06,360
being. 
Because if you're blitzing, but 

1164
01:00:06,360 --> 01:00:08,680
the quarterback knows what the 
blitz is and knows who's 

1165
01:00:08,760 --> 01:00:11,800
unguarded, that that's like how 
you get, that's how you get 

1166
01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:13,760
picked apart. 
Yeah, yeah. 

1167
01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:17,880
It's interesting though, because
Rodgers, maybe that's just to 

1168
01:00:17,880 --> 01:00:20,560
Rodgers has fallen off thing, 
but like traditionally you don't

1169
01:00:20,560 --> 01:00:23,000
really blitz Rodgers because 
he's pretty good at figuring 

1170
01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:24,760
that out and and, you know, 
punishing. 

1171
01:00:24,760 --> 01:00:30,000
Jets offensive line is terrible.
Because the Broncos blitzed him 

1172
01:00:30,000 --> 01:00:33,520
with success in Week 4. 
So I actually expected the 

1173
01:00:34,040 --> 01:00:36,560
Flores to do the same and I'm 
pulling it up. 

1174
01:00:36,600 --> 01:00:41,720
It looks like it worked well. 
Rogers was sixth worst against 

1175
01:00:41,720 --> 01:00:48,480
the blitz in week 5 and he was 
blitzed on 21 of his drop backs,

1176
01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:50,680
which is the most of any 
quarterback last week. 

1177
01:00:50,680 --> 01:00:53,320
So they they had, they showed 0.
Respect for him 0. 

1178
01:00:53,320 --> 01:00:55,760
Respect. 
Maybe it makes more sense to 

1179
01:00:55,760 --> 01:00:57,680
blitz Rogers now because he 
can't move. 

1180
01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:00,360
Like it's, it's a lot. 
It's a lot easier. 

1181
01:01:00,360 --> 01:01:03,040
It's a lot easier to blitz a guy
who can't just like, sidestep 

1182
01:01:03,040 --> 01:01:05,040
the blitz. 
He's also not dialed in with 

1183
01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:08,680
with Adams or you know, he he 
doesn't have like he Lazard is 

1184
01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:09,240
probably. 
His. 

1185
01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:13,520
Yeah, Wilson is the safety valve
for sure, but they just don't 

1186
01:01:13,520 --> 01:01:15,640
have the same connection that he
did with Adams, which is 

1187
01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:20,920
obviously crazy high bar, but. 
Yeah, yeah, surely Garrett 

1188
01:01:20,920 --> 01:01:24,000
Wilson's and Stanley, 
inefficient yards for target. 

1189
01:01:24,040 --> 01:01:26,200
It's it's got to rebound 
eventually. 

1190
01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:27,280
It can't. 
You can't do this his whole 

1191
01:01:27,280 --> 01:01:29,160
career. 
Hey, who cares man? 

1192
01:01:29,360 --> 01:01:31,280
Give him 30 targets a game and 
we're good. 

1193
01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:35,000
Yeah, that's true if he gets 22 
targets. 

1194
01:01:35,480 --> 01:01:38,480
It's not going to matter. 
Yeah, it's not. 4 yards. 

1195
01:01:38,480 --> 01:01:40,840
Target's fine. 
Yeah, great. 

1196
01:01:41,600 --> 01:01:45,160
God, that's insane. 
Also in that game random side 

1197
01:01:45,160 --> 01:01:47,800
now but Jefferson I think he was
only charted with like 14 

1198
01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:51,560
targets but he drew like 567 
DPI's I forget how he. 

1199
01:01:51,680 --> 01:01:55,960
Was he was he was called the 
defender guarding him was called

1200
01:01:55,960 --> 01:01:58,120
for six penalties in the game 
against Insane. 

1201
01:01:58,400 --> 01:01:59,560
Wow, wow. 
Yeah. 

1202
01:02:00,320 --> 01:02:01,920
I forget how that shows him the 
stat sheet. 

1203
01:02:01,920 --> 01:02:05,760
I feel like it as a target. 
So does it show a? 

1204
01:02:05,840 --> 01:02:09,040
Target again it it it doesn't. 
It doesn't. 

1205
01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:11,520
It doesn't, and it's a no choice
nothing. 

1206
01:02:11,880 --> 01:02:12,840
OK. 
Oh, I thought you were doing a 

1207
01:02:12,840 --> 01:02:13,920
bit. 
No, it's just it's white. 

1208
01:02:13,920 --> 01:02:15,360
No, no. 
I mean in terms of targets, 

1209
01:02:15,360 --> 01:02:16,200
yeah. 
It doesn't. 

1210
01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:19,600
If you're targeted on a play 
that you get DPI, it doesn't 

1211
01:02:19,600 --> 01:02:20,560
count as a target. 
Yeah. 

1212
01:02:21,040 --> 01:02:25,240
That's right, 4. 14 targets and 
five penalties. 

1213
01:02:25,960 --> 01:02:27,600
I mean, obviously he is the 
best. 

1214
01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:31,840
Like, I'm not, I'm not. 
You know, it's so funny. 

1215
01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:33,480
Like people are so beholden to 
the moment. 

1216
01:02:33,480 --> 01:02:35,720
Like Liam sent the tweet about 
Jamar Chase this morning. 

1217
01:02:35,720 --> 01:02:38,480
And it's like you, sometimes you
do have to zoom out on the 

1218
01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:41,480
chart. 
There's a reason that Jamar 

1219
01:02:41,480 --> 01:02:45,000
Chase has more 3 for 30s in his 
career now than Justin Jefferson

1220
01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:48,400
will ever have. 
Partly it's that his coach is an

1221
01:02:48,400 --> 01:02:50,040
idiot. 
Zach Taylor is the worst. 

1222
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:56,600
Come on man. 
All right, final, final panic 

1223
01:02:56,600 --> 01:02:58,840
button here. 
Pat, who you got? 

1224
01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:05,320
This one's probably overdue, but
you know, if everyone got mad at

1225
01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:07,720
me when I took Rashad White a 
few weeks because I wasn't 

1226
01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:11,360
drafting him and I was tempted 
to take Travis ETN, who's tank 

1227
01:03:11,360 --> 01:03:14,400
big sweet back up now who I'm 
not drafting, who I who I didn't

1228
01:03:14,400 --> 01:03:18,200
draft at all, but Jerry Judy, I 
was drafting. 

1229
01:03:19,400 --> 01:03:21,880
I did draft. 
I drafted. 

1230
01:03:22,680 --> 01:03:24,360
I saw Jerry Judy's. 
Name and I clicked it. 

1231
01:03:25,760 --> 01:03:30,520
I clicked Jerry Judy Guys and 
Sacrilegious the entire time in 

1232
01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:33,840
our chat was like, Jerry Judy is
not even a football player. 

1233
01:03:33,840 --> 01:03:36,080
This guy gives up as soon as he 
steps out on the field. 

1234
01:03:36,320 --> 01:03:39,720
Basically, imagine Steve Smith's
attitude towards Jerry Judy. 

1235
01:03:39,720 --> 01:03:43,480
That's that's what sacrilegious 
was weighing in very regularly 

1236
01:03:43,480 --> 01:03:46,240
on Jerry Judy just completely 
correct. 

1237
01:03:46,680 --> 01:03:49,960
And I still drafted him. 
I still drafted Jerry Judy guys 

1238
01:03:49,960 --> 01:03:53,320
doesn't feel good. 
Pulled up his stat line from 

1239
01:03:53,320 --> 01:03:55,280
last week. 
He had three targets, one 

1240
01:03:55,280 --> 01:04:02,240
reception, 16 yards. 
This man has 1.09 yards per 

1241
01:04:02,240 --> 01:04:05,480
outrun, somehow outperforming 
Amari Cooper. 

1242
01:04:05,720 --> 01:04:07,880
Yeah, I was gonna say in the 
context of a Deshaun Watson LED 

1243
01:04:07,880 --> 01:04:09,480
offense that's actually pretty 
good. 

1244
01:04:09,520 --> 01:04:12,360
I'm I'm bullish on. 
Here, yeah, Amari Cooper's only 

1245
01:04:12,360 --> 01:04:15,360
at 11 yards per outrun. 
So, you know, this can double as

1246
01:04:15,360 --> 01:04:20,360
a panic button on on Amari, I 
guess, but I think Amari will 

1247
01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:23,560
give us a couple big weeks and 
and Jerry Judy just just won't. 

1248
01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:24,640
He just won't. 
That was. 

1249
01:04:24,640 --> 01:04:26,920
That's just a total. 
Just wait until just, yeah, wait

1250
01:04:26,920 --> 01:04:29,280
until Judy gets in shape, dude, 
just like he's been on the 

1251
01:04:29,280 --> 01:04:30,760
treadmill. 
Like wait until he gets 

1252
01:04:30,760 --> 01:04:32,880
conditioned. 
I Kareem, I wouldn't. 

1253
01:04:32,880 --> 01:04:36,680
I wouldn't give up so easily. 
On Jerry Judy this did you see 

1254
01:04:36,680 --> 01:04:38,000
there's supposed to be a route 
runner. 

1255
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:40,480
Remember what what happened? 
Like, buddy, I, I've been out, 

1256
01:04:40,480 --> 01:04:43,320
I've been out on Jerry Judy, 
like from the moment I watched 

1257
01:04:43,320 --> 01:04:45,960
him play in the NFL. 
He he just is one of those guys 

1258
01:04:45,960 --> 01:04:49,600
who has he's got no dog. 
I mean really like I think he's 

1259
01:04:49,600 --> 01:04:53,760
probably very good, but he just 
like the the dog levels are. 

1260
01:04:54,200 --> 01:04:57,240
You know what he is? 
He's the sky more of Jacoby 

1261
01:04:57,240 --> 01:05:00,760
Myers. 
No, that's not how it's done. 

1262
01:05:00,960 --> 01:05:02,240
He's the. 
He's the. 

1263
01:05:02,640 --> 01:05:09,160
He's like the sky more of. 
He wasn't drafted high enough, 

1264
01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:12,280
yeah, but his game is. 
But his game's very much dico. 

1265
01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:15,160
Admires. 
Yeah, it's like he's the he's. 

1266
01:05:15,160 --> 01:05:17,520
The Sky Moore of CD Lambs. 
Sky Moore. 

1267
01:05:17,520 --> 01:05:19,400
Sky Moore of CD Lambs. 
Yeah, there you go. 

1268
01:05:19,400 --> 01:05:20,440
Yeah, exactly it. 
Yeah. 

1269
01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:23,480
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
Yeah, I actually I wanted, I 

1270
01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:26,880
almost did tank Dallas my panic 
button, but I wanted to address 

1271
01:05:26,880 --> 01:05:29,040
this real quick. 
I'm actually not really 

1272
01:05:29,040 --> 01:05:33,480
panicking about Tank Dill 
because I think the CJ Stroud 

1273
01:05:33,480 --> 01:05:37,520
plays like AC minus NFL 
quarterback and they win anyways

1274
01:05:37,520 --> 01:05:39,680
and Stephane Diggs leads the 
team and targets. 

1275
01:05:40,640 --> 01:05:44,000
It's like it just doesn't feel 
that tenable to keep giving 

1276
01:05:44,000 --> 01:05:47,040
Diggs all these targets. 
And for like, isn't Stroud just 

1277
01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:50,720
going to start to play better? 
Yeah, I. 

1278
01:05:50,920 --> 01:05:52,560
I think so. 
I think so. 

1279
01:05:52,560 --> 01:05:54,560
I don't think it's panic button 
on Dell. 

1280
01:05:54,560 --> 01:05:56,840
I will say the amount of times I
had to get in arguments with 

1281
01:05:56,840 --> 01:05:59,680
people this offseason who want 
to do the contrarian like, oh, 

1282
01:05:59,680 --> 01:06:02,560
tank Tank Dell is actually the 
better wide receiver here than 

1283
01:06:02,560 --> 01:06:06,760
Nico Collins that let's be. 
More than Steph Diggs, I had 

1284
01:06:06,920 --> 01:06:09,680
always had such a hard time with
flipping digs. 

1285
01:06:10,520 --> 01:06:12,320
I never got that. 
Like I went back because I 

1286
01:06:12,320 --> 01:06:14,480
thought I was missing something 
because everyone's like, oh, he 

1287
01:06:14,480 --> 01:06:16,280
was like out projecting him when
they're on the field. 

1288
01:06:16,280 --> 01:06:18,200
He was better. 
Like I I look back at the 

1289
01:06:18,200 --> 01:06:21,360
numbers and like roll the whole 
article about it and like that 

1290
01:06:21,360 --> 01:06:23,760
just wasn't true. 
Like Nick Pawns was like clearly

1291
01:06:24,080 --> 01:06:26,320
out targeting. 
Not clearly, but he was out 

1292
01:06:26,320 --> 01:06:28,680
targeting Tank Dell when they're
on the field together last year.

1293
01:06:29,160 --> 01:06:34,280
He's also 7 inches taller, 
faster, 40 lbs heavier. 

1294
01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:37,480
Like come on, Like what was that
contrarian take? 

1295
01:06:37,480 --> 01:06:41,080
Can we, can we admit that that 
was a terrible contrarian? 

1296
01:06:41,080 --> 01:06:43,400
Take it doesn't doesn't feel 
like a great one now does it? 

1297
01:06:43,680 --> 01:06:44,040
No. 
It. 

1298
01:06:44,680 --> 01:06:46,960
Was a bad. 
I was in on Dell for sure, but I

1299
01:06:46,960 --> 01:06:48,720
was definitely. 
That guy for a little while. 

1300
01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:51,200
I was in on Dell. 
I'm not saying I was out on 

1301
01:06:51,200 --> 01:06:53,960
Dell, I was just I would just 
get triggered again. 

1302
01:06:53,960 --> 01:06:55,920
I just create these like straw 
men in my head did. 

1303
01:06:55,960 --> 01:06:57,960
Dell have the title. 
Did Dell? 

1304
01:06:58,680 --> 01:07:01,800
Can we can we bring on, can we 
bring on an injury expert and 

1305
01:07:01,800 --> 01:07:04,280
just ask them if it's good to 
not break your leg? 

1306
01:07:05,200 --> 01:07:08,800
I feel like breaking your leg is
maybe worse than. 

1307
01:07:08,800 --> 01:07:10,320
I feel like weirdly. 
Believe. 

1308
01:07:10,480 --> 01:07:12,480
The injury, actually, it's 
always tell me it's good when 

1309
01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:14,840
you break your leg. 
Like they told me it was good 

1310
01:07:14,840 --> 01:07:16,440
when tell me Pollard broke his 
leg. 

1311
01:07:16,600 --> 01:07:20,120
Don't worry, when Mark Andrews 
broke his leg, I've heard enough

1312
01:07:20,120 --> 01:07:22,360
of this. 
Like it seems like breaking your

1313
01:07:22,360 --> 01:07:25,840
leg is actually pretty bad. 
That's, that's like what I'm 

1314
01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:31,200
starting to think, and I'm not a
doctor, but it does seem like 

1315
01:07:31,200 --> 01:07:35,160
the guys who have broken their 
legs, who were not as explosive 

1316
01:07:35,640 --> 01:07:39,400
returning from their broken leg.
But that's just my you know. 

1317
01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:43,560
Yeah, again, we're not doctors. 
Yeah, we're not doctors, so we 

1318
01:07:43,560 --> 01:07:45,160
can't really say it with 
confidence, but. 

1319
01:07:46,520 --> 01:07:50,240
I would prefer as a layman, 
purely as a layman, the guys who

1320
01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:52,560
haven't broken their legs I 
think at this point. 

1321
01:07:52,840 --> 01:07:55,480
Yeah, I do actually like the the
injury doctors. 

1322
01:07:55,480 --> 01:07:57,920
I think there's a lot of them 
that do good work. 

1323
01:07:57,920 --> 01:08:00,600
I just feel like sometimes like 
this is not a shot at them. 

1324
01:08:00,840 --> 01:08:01,440
Like we just. 
Don't. 

1325
01:08:01,440 --> 01:08:04,000
This is not a shot at them. 
I'm I'm purely no. 

1326
01:08:04,480 --> 01:08:05,600
Joking. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

1327
01:08:05,600 --> 01:08:07,360
We're clearly joking around. 
Just like an earnest point 

1328
01:08:07,360 --> 01:08:10,040
though, is like we clearly do 
not have all the information and

1329
01:08:10,040 --> 01:08:12,600
all these injuries and like I 
feel like sometimes I just don't

1330
01:08:12,600 --> 01:08:16,840
bake in like the downside risk 
of like something unknown, bad 

1331
01:08:16,840 --> 01:08:18,600
that we don't know about the 
injury. 

1332
01:08:19,319 --> 01:08:22,560
Like that just seems to happen 
way more than we want to admit. 

1333
01:08:22,560 --> 01:08:25,120
Like this season's been extreme 
in that. 

1334
01:08:25,120 --> 01:08:28,319
But like the Kyle Pitts MCL 
injury, for instance, like 

1335
01:08:28,319 --> 01:08:32,359
clearly was not just like a 
run-of-the-mill MCL injury, but 

1336
01:08:32,359 --> 01:08:36,640
like the risk. 
Honestly, Sam, that injury might

1337
01:08:36,640 --> 01:08:39,600
not have like even happens. 
Like he's totally healthy now. 

1338
01:08:40,200 --> 01:08:43,279
Like I don't think like, did the
MCL affect him at all? 

1339
01:08:43,760 --> 01:08:45,880
Like he's healthy now. 
Yeah, I don't know. 

1340
01:08:45,880 --> 01:08:47,680
He's. 
Got the lowest open score in the

1341
01:08:47,680 --> 01:08:49,920
league? 
I'm not sure. 

1342
01:08:50,640 --> 01:08:53,000
I don't know, I mean, he might 
have always just been bad, but 

1343
01:08:53,000 --> 01:08:56,920
I'm just saying like in general,
like fuck, I guess I'm just 

1344
01:08:57,040 --> 01:08:59,800
tired of getting burned on these
return from injury guys that 

1345
01:08:59,800 --> 01:09:01,160
just turned the dust. 
It's so. 

1346
01:09:01,160 --> 01:09:04,279
I really wish, yeah. 
Because, you know, Mark Andrews 

1347
01:09:04,279 --> 01:09:06,720
has essentially been benched for
Charlie Kohler, and it feels 

1348
01:09:06,720 --> 01:09:11,439
like he he, it feels like him 
breaking his leg might have 

1349
01:09:11,439 --> 01:09:14,120
contributed to that, you know? 
Hasn't been benched for Charlie 

1350
01:09:14,120 --> 01:09:16,600
Cole. 
OK, just let's let's fictional. 

1351
01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:19,279
Just been outperformed by him, 
but not fictional. 

1352
01:09:19,319 --> 01:09:22,439
Universe, he hasn't been best. 
He's just on the bench while 

1353
01:09:22,439 --> 01:09:25,800
Kohler catches sick, plays down 
the sideline and then scores 

1354
01:09:25,880 --> 01:09:31,160
touchdowns, let's say. 
Hypothetically, Andrews was the 

1355
01:09:31,160 --> 01:09:34,800
one who caught that long Kolor 
catch and run and the touchdown.

1356
01:09:35,439 --> 01:09:41,040
So he has like 22 PPR points or 
whatever is the we're so back 

1357
01:09:41,160 --> 01:09:47,040
like spiking it in the nerds 
face or or is it like Kyle Pitts

1358
01:09:47,040 --> 01:09:49,439
where Kyle Pitts just had what 
do you have 7 for 78 or 

1359
01:09:49,439 --> 01:09:53,160
something and everyone's like. 
Yeah. 

1360
01:09:53,439 --> 01:09:58,680
What, what I like I, I tend to 
think I, I probably like can 

1361
01:09:58,800 --> 01:10:00,720
like with Pitts. 
I'm like, I'm not playing Pitts 

1362
01:10:00,720 --> 01:10:04,600
this week against the Panthers. 
Like I mean, you start him where

1363
01:10:04,600 --> 01:10:06,400
you have him, but like, he's not
back. 

1364
01:10:07,640 --> 01:10:10,360
No, it took again, we don't have
to turn this into a Kyle Pitts 

1365
01:10:10,360 --> 01:10:12,280
thing because people just 
probably hate my Kyle Pitts 

1366
01:10:12,280 --> 01:10:16,600
takes at this point. 
But it took him 55 that's 

1367
01:10:16,600 --> 01:10:19,800
attempts and Kyle Pitts still 
had less targets than Ray Ray 

1368
01:10:19,800 --> 01:10:22,680
McLeod, less targets than 
Darnell Mooney, that that's been

1369
01:10:22,680 --> 01:10:24,680
the case the whole season. 
So. 

1370
01:10:25,960 --> 01:10:30,240
He had like a 12% target chair 
with yeah, what was his target 

1371
01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:32,520
chair? 
It was like 13, like no joke 

1372
01:10:32,520 --> 01:10:33,440
like. 13 was it really? 
Wow. 

1373
01:10:33,920 --> 01:10:38,120
Yeah, OK, sorry, 15% which on 
the season it's at 14%. 

1374
01:10:38,120 --> 01:10:41,280
So yeah, it wasn't any different
than it's been all season. 

1375
01:10:41,280 --> 01:10:48,880
It was just Falcons threw a ton,
which, yeah, but anyways. 

1376
01:10:49,720 --> 01:10:52,680
And here on a positive note, on 
Kyle Pitts, we got. 

1377
01:10:53,120 --> 01:10:55,600
To get It didn't break his leg. 
Pitts did not break his leg it. 

1378
01:10:56,040 --> 01:10:57,400
Didn't break his leg. 
And that's foolish. 

1379
01:10:57,400 --> 01:10:58,760
He just. 
Wants to like it. 

1380
01:11:06,640 --> 01:11:12,400
All right guys, we'll be back 
next week for another in season 

1381
01:11:12,400 --> 01:11:15,840
ADP chasing other things coming 
up on the ship chasing channel 

1382
01:11:15,840 --> 01:11:20,440
this week we got stat chasing as
always. 

1383
01:11:20,440 --> 01:11:25,720
That's comes on Tuesday nights 
with Draco and Zach. 

1384
01:11:25,720 --> 01:11:28,600
Really fun show their last time 
I checked they're doing like 

1385
01:11:28,600 --> 01:11:33,080
three hour, 4 hour long shows. 
Just truly sick, sick stuff 

1386
01:11:33,120 --> 01:11:35,000
going on there. 
But really informative. 

1387
01:11:35,000 --> 01:11:37,280
You guys should definitely check
that out and then Pat anything 

1388
01:11:37,280 --> 01:11:42,720
for the ship cast this Thursday.
Any announcements on guests or 

1389
01:11:42,720 --> 01:11:44,160
anything like that? 
Are you guys still figuring it 

1390
01:11:44,160 --> 01:11:46,360
out? 
Still figuring it out, but yeah,

1391
01:11:46,360 --> 01:11:49,240
ship cast Thursday. 
Watch along. 

1392
01:11:49,240 --> 01:11:50,680
We had. 
I mean, it's pretty epic. 

1393
01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:54,120
This last one was about as bad a
beat as I could. 

1394
01:11:54,120 --> 01:11:55,520
Imagine it was really, really 
bad. 

1395
01:11:56,280 --> 01:11:57,400
Yeah, really. 
Bad. 

1396
01:11:57,720 --> 01:12:00,880
But the beautiful part of it is 
that many, and I know not 

1397
01:12:00,880 --> 01:12:03,880
everyone, and I apologize if 
you're not one of the people who

1398
01:12:03,960 --> 01:12:07,320
who benefited, but many people 
who did tail us on it. 

1399
01:12:07,880 --> 01:12:12,520
We got the the Bucky rushing 
line 1 yard lower than us and of

1400
01:12:12,520 --> 01:12:15,440
course, we lost by 1 yard. 
So the silver lining was that 

1401
01:12:15,440 --> 01:12:18,600
many of the the ship cast 
viewers actually binged while 

1402
01:12:18,600 --> 01:12:22,960
they watched us tilt our faces 
off, which is a pretty sweet 

1403
01:12:22,960 --> 01:12:24,600
spot to be in. 
You know, you're like, I've got 

1404
01:12:24,600 --> 01:12:27,200
this winning thickum. 
And this is the very 

1405
01:12:27,200 --> 01:12:30,760
entertaining as these guys who 
gave who gave me the pics are 

1406
01:12:30,760 --> 01:12:33,320
losing. 
So we'll be back the sequel, 

1407
01:12:33,320 --> 01:12:37,880
hopefully with better results 
for us next, next Thursday, this

1408
01:12:37,880 --> 01:12:39,400
Thursday. 
Awesome. 

1409
01:12:39,840 --> 01:12:42,360
