This is normally, the moment kind of in the year where when
people are out of their season-long leagues, they start
to kind of check out a little bit, but we had a lot of people
waiting for us to go live here. So I feel like all is well in
the ship chasing. Unity guys, I hope so.
Grab a crazy season II. Feel like things.
I feel like we're in good shape overall, but it doesn't like
feel like it in a way. How do you guys feel Gretch.
I mean, it's been the one of the harder Seasons to sort of put
our thumb on, right? Like every every one of these
leagues is pretty balanced. From top to bottom, probably
part of the reason, people are still watching to the show.
Watching the show is because there's just not that many
people that are eliminated yet. It's not because we do anything
good. It's that everyone think I'm
still in it. It's yeah, I mean it's just been
an interesting year. Like I have some, definitely
some teams. I'm excited about the look like
they're going to be in the The big, the big dance.
I was just doing a little bit of an inventory, our ship chasing
team. The one that was just, the three
of us, we have several with comments, not talk about that
one, went back to the draft. What like we went like Judy
should not boy Gallop like four rounds in a row like weeds.
We were decidedly to buzz. We're like, Gibson or Ridley,
Gibson her Ridley, which was battling my name fire are a
kettle. Was the other guy we talked
about? So wouldn't know.
Okay. Well, I was Like yeah, are three
worst teams across our portfolio are the ship stealing team with
us. Three, It's Pat nice, slow
draft, little very first one we did and burned.
It's fucking trash. Ours were slow to an early.
You're right. Yeah.
And then it's our Matic her trap with Davis.
Those are our three words T. We knew week.
One, that team sucks. It's so tilting to me.
That's our one team with Jonathan Taylor on it.
Yeah, it's fucking trap. It has Jonathan Taylor and
Davante Adams. And it's just that's where I'm
at this week with AJ Dillon, we have Dylan on our team, the
three of us and he's on another one of my teams with my other
co-managers that is not going anywhere and I'm like, fuck man,
I love Dylan, but I don't have them anymore.
It's like looking great. Like you're saying with Taylor,
someone was talking about, I forget who came up that someone
was talking about like A.J Dylan and how you know we were on him
and I still have in my head that show So we did with by him for
probably like in July, I think it was like week before we did
the big dog draft together and Gretsch just like gave us the
manifesto on AJ Dylan and we were all like yeah, we all like
A.J Dylan. But Gretch likes him a little
more than us. And we should like him as much
as grass like your food and then we're all like, fuck it?
Let's say ever AJ. Dillon it I think we all got
gobs of him in best ball, hard acted but he got expensive in.
That PC and I just feel like we didn't get as much of him as we
wanted. He got up into like the debunks
for a while and it's like probably why some of those teams
that I have Dylan on aren't doing so well as those are the
teams that I don't have Depot on, you know.
Like that's that's a pic that has helped a lot of these.
We have some more of them though don't we?
I'm gonna check now I think we got it.
We haven't we have a few shares at AJ but we only have one
Jonathan Taylor. Well we have Taylor in the end.
If FC team though, true true. Which is a big part of the
reason that seems in first. Yeah, it was like I just did a
show with a Friedman and he was asking us about like our
high-stakes year and stuff like that.
And it was interesting to like thinking through, you know, the
three Big League winners at wide receiver.
You know, Cooper cup Jamar Chasin Debo Samuel.
Like those are the best like cost adjusted, you know, smashes
at wide receiver and we have a bunch of, you know, Debo and
Jamar Chase. But those were also guys, that a
lot of people who went Heavy running back early.
We're also drafted. Yeah.
Right right. Started three.
You might have drafted, good, recovery by the drafted Chase,
and so that's been. I feel like our teams are
surging right now, we have a lot of teams that are really getting
strong. Now, that the kind of, I don't
know, volatility of the season is kicking in, but also, not as
great as I think we would hope the season would have gone.
Agreed. I was talking to Davis.
He had me on the take casts week and just kind of pointing out
that like even the Dylan thing happened.
So late, you know, like we get this past week but it's like,
you know, you're really getting maybe like, two three weeks out
of Dillon to make the playoffs and ffp.
See, it's where you're actually we're starting in right?
And then Connor came in pretty late, you know, you maybe didn't
even Start them, right? Probably didn't start them the
week actually blew up then you then you put them in your lineup
last week and he does. So, Connor hasn't really been
helped us yet for any 0 running back teams.
A lot of the guys were off of waiver wire, which helps you as
your running back draft, but enough PC, everyone's very
sharp. Everyone's knows that they need
to be bidding on those same league winning running backs
because they're going to help them.
Fill the flexes even if they want running back heavy.
So Elijah Mitchell, Cordarrelle, Patterson, like weren't drafted.
Hon. And in a way that also kind of
hurts or evens, the playing field from, you know, however
you drafted because it's available to everybody like just
got in from wested oh my ship chasing inspired 0 RV, team
started rough but now I'm absolutely devouring every team,
alive down the stretch, like the shy, hallooed sandworm of our
Curry. I don't even get this arrakis
that's we are talking about dude.
Obviously you have not been reading the source material.
And that's true man. Once that worm gets the headed
your way. You don't have a chance you
don't have any chance. I will say as you sit and talk
about Dylan you talk about Connor.
They're people that have both those guys and they're people
that have teams that are on the outside.
Looking in, with those guys, it feels like you're done because
you didn't start hot and all those things I do think this is
the year where there are going to be teams that In these next
couple of weeks and especially if you're I mean obviously that
we're getting more towards like ffp see here but and there's
only two weeks left there but if you're in a regular league and
maybe you have four more weeks until the playoffs or what have
you they're they're going to be teams at search Lee is sort of
the point that I'm making and it is one thing like if you have a
great start and you get out to an early lead and you're fading
the whole year, like that's not good but it feels better than
what. It kind of happens.
Sometimes of 0r B where you search late.
Like, if your best weeks come late, you're like, man, this
season hasn't gone. Well, in all this, I think we
still might have some positive, you know, more positive outcomes
in ahead of us, a sort of a. Well, this this story, I think
of our years going to be, can we get some of the teams that are
strongest to Surge enough to get them in the playoffs because
then we've got hammers in the playoffs and we're actually set
up to like, make some money in the playoffs where I think
there's going to be a lot of teams that sneak into the
playoffs. That Had Derrick Henry, like he
was so good. He was so good early that he's
going to put teams in the playoffs but then it's, you
know, can they hold on? And it's such a weird year
because like the kind of the thesis of zero right back to
some extent. It's like, you don't want to be
that team that's holding on when you get into the playoffs
because you're not actually going to win the league, you
want to be the team that surges in but the dynamic of the
weight, like Henry actually played a long time and he was so
good that like, you almost Right now, still rather be that team.
Then the team surgeon because the team surging it's like now
the doors going to shut down. A lot of those teams are not
going to get in the playoffs at all.
You still have to make the playoffs.
I just think this year is going to be one of those years where
we kind of like all like fight to a draw.
And then we like in the offseason we're all going to
have the Zero running back. People are going to have all the
same arguments because we got Connor.
We got Dylan, we got a ton of waiver wire.
Probably one of the best years for waiver our pickups ever got
Ramon Dre, down the stretch. Now, You know, it's on and on
and then you also have like, you know, Henry goes down.
There's not really anyone running back who's just like
emerged as the had to have them guy.
Christian McCaffrey struggle with interest Camaro, wasn't
what we hoped. So like the the argument 40
running back kind of came through but it came through in
such a way that your may be glad you didn't go 0 running back and
so we're all just ghouls, same arguments all over again.
And I think one of the really key points there because one of
the things that we always say, if you take enough receivers
because you don't know necessarily who's going to hit
but you want the receivers in the, you know, first 10 Rounds
because that's where the elites are, that's what the guys that
can be really great art and that's proven true.
But it has been a really weird year where a lot of the elites
the first second round receivers particularly where other people
were taking running backs and even we were taking running
backs and some leaks. But first, second, even third
round, I mean like Allen Robinson.
Tara McLaren, none of these guys have had good years and you go
up higher. This had more Hopkins Rockets
definitely Ridley. Decals Jefferson said one of the
biggest like near-misses years. He could be the wide receiver
one right now. Honestly said so many near
misses on big plays but yeah, digs I mean, there's so many
guys up there that even atoms, it's been a little bit less.
You know, he asked, he's five. I'm look at the leaderboard
right now, cup Debo and Chase are three of the top four
receivers. They're all mid-round guys, you
didn't have to really go full 0 or B to get those guys.
You could have done something more traditional, that's what I
mean. You could do whatever you want
in round 13. 03? Right?
Well and that's what in Debo is like he was one of the guys,
that was our last wide receiver. We would take in drafts, like he
was the cutoff of like, alright, we took six to seven, like DeVos
our last guy and then it like the cliff really happens there.
And you know, like you said I wonder Pat the dynamic you were
describing as far as this year of like this push and pull of
like the early running back teams got off to faster starts
but they are going to their feeding and crashing.
The injuries, the 0r B Teams, you know, got off to a little
bit slower starts, but are surging now and if this season,
the story of this season might be like, did you get Cooper cup?
Did you get Depot Samuel? Like did you just pick the right
player at the realize? Those are the guys that's the
dominant strategy of this year, if right?
But then is my strategy. That's not a strategy it's not a
lot of strategy and if you step back and you think about what
that actually means, what that actually means is essentially
that our strategy was right like I'm sorry, but like I don't like
the idea of our entire strategy is you draft enough receivers
because you know that these players are going to be very
valuable someone in this range. Right.
It's not a guarantee that we have the ADP.
Exactly, right. A lot of it is uncertainty, we
know there's going to be mrs. That's why we have so much
redundancy built in. There's two two ways to look at
this draft, the best players, which could mean any position or
any player at any position or do what we do which is get really,
really heavy. It receiver and especially in
those Realms, right? That's the running back Dead
Zone. That's around we're taking
receivers and we do. Have a lot of these guys you
didn't take as much cup as we probably should have been a lot
of Chase ton of Depot and I mean that's that's the biggest
reason. Like my a lot of my rosters are
still doing very well is that I took enough receivers that it
succeeded. And the idea is not that this is
the perfect strategy or anything.
It's that. This this is going to work more
often than not right. Like we got the water.
Yeah although yeah paid off with perfect knowledge of like well
let's say like semi you have some knowledge of how the
seasons going to go. You'd probably go.
RB RB. Yeah.
Jeff the Byrd bunch of receivers like for around seven or eight
and then just you know Hammer are be you maybe you'd go Kelsey
early but but no other tight ends and just punt tight into.
So like you know I think since the ice going running back from
the dead zones important but you but the argument for going wide
receiver around wanted to didn't get strengthened by the season.
No. But one of the things we talked
about in the offseason when we did all our Drive shows was that
I mean I know Sean and I talked to tan on stealing bananas and
Sean specifically would say that in many ways is you know
ideologically more similar to 0 or B that you know, running back
running back with all hammering receiver than someone who does
0r B but it only goes like three receivers and starts hitting
running back and round. Yeah, that's not 0 or B.
And that's nothing. So like what you just described
when we did stuff like that? We went running back tight end
and then hammered receiver. I mean that's something you guys
love to do in that for PCs. Yeah.
We like to do 1,000. If I was going to say of all the
like, you know, crises of Faith or you know, rethinking stuff.
Like I have basically no regrets except I'm really starting to
rethink the elite tight, end strategy part of this element
just because all of the knocks against it are, you know, tight
ends are just as prone to a lot of these injury rates, as the
running backs, the scoring is extremely Volatile.
And when you look back at the top tight ends this year, you
had, you know, Travis Kelce getting older, you had Darren
Waller, which we've already seen like a series of of like kind of
spiked volatile production from him.
You had Kyle Pitts who was a rookie, there's lots of
uncertainties, you had George. Kittle who didn't have a stellar
injury record. And I don't want to be in the,
you know, injury prediction business.
But I do think the same criticisms we Levy at running
backs I think is, is decently, you know, Fair to Levy against
tight ends as well. And I do think that might be
where we made some mistakes of forcing the early tight ends a
lot this year. I don't, I don't really agree
with the. I think the thing with early
tight end strategy is each just going to come down to like three
guys and, you know, it's like, did in that sense.
It's going to be very volatile year to year because it's real,
it's not like the early-round running back strategy.
There's so many earlier on running backs but really just
comes down to To Kelsey, get too old to kill, stay healthy, you
know, to the wall or thing, finally, turn into the Mirage.
And it's like in in years past it's been the same thing.
Like Gronk, can Gronk, finally stay healthy this year Gronk,
stays healthy, he absolutely crushes, win rates if he gets
hurt, he crushes you. So I think that's the deal that
you make with early-round tight end.
And the reason that I'm more comfortable, making it in some
ways than the earlier I'm running back.
Is that when you hit on that, especially in tight, I'm pretty
No one can catch you now, like you're just, you're in, you have
such an advantage in a way we're like hitting on Jonathan Taylor
or hitting on, you know, an Aji Harris really helps you, but I
don't think it's as powerful as when you have liked LC last
year. What do you think wretch?
I mean, I think I kind of like, I mean, I think the way it
played out, certainly the way that you said it, Pete makes a
ton of sense. I think Pat also made really
good points as well that we have.
Such a small sample but I know one thing I was saying in August
certainly and I hadn't thought of this until you kind of said
this. But one thing I said a lot in
August when you made the comparison to running back so as
the Titans are a lot like running backs, there are similar
injury risks but if you're tired and stays healthy is going to
give you a positional Advantage, was sort of the point of kept
making, we don't have to worry about them.
Also being good, but we do have to worry about that.
Apparently I mean that's essentially how it played out
Travis Kelce enduring Waller. I've not given us a positional
Advantage. Kiddo got hurt which wasn't
great either but Waller and Kelsey been Fear.
Not been that great. I mean Kelsey seems like he's
coming on and was playing with through a little bit of an
injury. While, there's a tough one, man.
Let the volumes been there. The efficiency is cratered.
Catch rates, way down, your target, way down.
All that stuff is down even though he has seven plus Targets
in all. But one game, his Target rate is
this trending right towards where it was last year, like
he's gonna wind up with plenty of targets, but he's going to
have a worst year. He only has two touchdowns.
Had a TV called back by penalty last week.
I think he's like a by low and like in any kind of like if
you're In a league where you can make trades, any, kind of sense
of like that, like it's gonna get better for Waller.
There's not a lot there that when I watch him he looks the
same to. I mean, I did you guys have an
explanation for, why do I keep getting asked about who remember
last year, the Jets game and Leone's talked about this, how
like worried they were projecting him.
Yeah. And the owner was saying like
they were projecting Waller like week after week after week.
They're over projecting wall or kept coming in lower than the
projection and the Temptation was to lower the projection but
like he was looking at all the target stuff and it's like, He
should be scoring more points. And then finally, that Jets
game, he just like absolutely smash their projection.
And then to that point, like post Jets game, they had under
projected him for the season, so it is like one of these things.
Like I think we just kind of saw it with digs a little bit, like,
digs just had like, the when the regression comes and that's the
thing, like, with all this, like regression stuff, it's like when
you're looking at the numbers, you're like, oh, this guy's like
a little low, like he should, you know, he's yours for targets
probably like, 2.5 too low. So like, you know, in a couple
weeks we'll have, he'll have one that kind of evens them out and
then in a couple weeks instead he is like a 20 yards per Target
game and he just goes bananas and absolutely crushes.
Things and swings things the other way where you has a super
hot stretch like democracy and it's had over the last couple
weeks and now people are like, oh my God, can this keep up?
And is like no, this can't keep up either.
Yeah, it while it's here. Point after the Jets game, three
of his other 400-yard game. Came in.
There's only four games after the Jets game so he closed the
season with four hundred yard games in his final five.
You only had one to that point in the season.
I mean we might get a similar run towards the end of the years
basically. Yeah we totally could totally
good and then the season-long stuff will get that'll bury it.
Wolf will slowly forget that. This is the way it played out.
We'll talk about is points. Per game, will project him four
more points per game than someone else.
Then we'll be like how you're an idiot.
If you don't. If how could you take pits over
down roller down the rollers Target?
Share with so much higher and we'll just Forget that any of
this Nuance occurred. Let's just because we do have 25
minutes here until waivers lock. I do really enjoy the macro
discussion, that's actually my preferred discussions to have
but let's let's get into a little bit of you know, week
specific stuff. I think this is an interesting
week as far as you know, playoff push we have you know lots of
ramifications coming up. Also with players being dropped,
not being eligible, All to be picked up by any teams.
I think that makes another kind of added wrinkle and I saw
someone in the chat, ask this, we were talking about this in
our private NFC team chat, the ship chasing chat was talking
about it. Everyone's starting to wonder
what we do with fucking Trail ants.
Who is been the second queue? Be the third QB on.
A lot of our benches, the 49ers schedule is still really good.
This offense is still really good, like the thesis is still
there. Are we losing faith?
in the trail ants thing happening this year where you
guys at on him still being a stash versus moving on, I got
asked this in my muscles, you have the Discord and office
hours there. And I wrote a lot of words on it
today, but I mean, I look like Jimmy G having the best game of
the year for him in a huge win against a divisional team on
prime-time, makes it tougher to see, you know, especially for
like a that came at the worst time for this like lansing's, to
play charge that we've been pushing the same time if you
want. Investors right leg.
They just ran the ball, the entire game.
Like he, he didn't help them win.
We know that he's limited. We know that he's a system, QB.
I still very much think that Lance would they be better off
with Lance? Because he's Dynamic.
And you can play, you know, he can do things that especially if
they get down, and games can help them win.
But also, Shanahan like basically doesn't have any
incentive to play him at this point, if he plays him now and
he succeeds, then he looks dumb if you place him now and he
fails. He loses that Like hey wait give
us you know don't don't turn up. Any hot seat on us or anything.
You got to give us 2022 when we can actually play Train Lance,
right? Like he doesn't want to play
Lance and have that Peck look bad.
After this year's already gone bad and people are starting to
question whether Kyle Shanahan's a good coach which is what has
been happening a little bit. So there's really no good
outcome for him to put me into it at this point at the same
time. Like so that might like to me, I
was trying to estimate it. I would say maybe it's like,
6535 7525, maybe even that we're going to wind up just having A
roster spot like that's sort of what it feels like.
I do think we're dogs now to see him play at a time that matters
the same time. I still very much think if he
does play, he's an immediate top-10 quarterback, he's got the
rushing ability and all those things and so I still think he's
worth holding. Or if you're going to cut them,
you need to cut him right before waivers walk because you don't
want to wind up facing him, you know, in in the playoffs of your
league. Yeah, 49ers have.
Oh good, good. I was just going to say no I
want to set you up but like because I completely agree with
what Ben said. And so now we're weighing like,
what is the opportunity cost of that roster spot?
Because you're probably using it on a running back, who has a
equally binary outcome of helping you succeed in the an
equally, you know, binary probability of of that hitting.
So like how do you view him versus a bench?
Are be stash because that's ultimately what we're deciding.
Yeah, I think the thing with Lance is the upside component
Cobra Kai saying cover Cam Newton which You know fair
enough your kind of getting a similar profile to Cam Newton.
There's some upside there. I think that's that'd be fine
but I think the upside with Lance is higher I mean they were
using him in like every every dream we had for how they might
use. This guy's kind of a pure
rusher, you know, like a true dual threat.
I mean, looks like that's their plan for him.
We just need a little bit more polish and a little bit more
trust from them. They've got five losses.
Right? So the Rams game really was bad
for us because if they lost that game.
Now the three and six to Ben's point about like kind of
thinking through the real world scenarios on this, if we just
get them, you know, like a couple more losses here than at
that point. Why are you playing Jimmy like
at that point like show us Lance I think is the call from the fan
base, you know, and your fix your site.
The show us Lance. Yeah, exactly.
So I don't know. I mean, that might not happen.
Now, until deep into the playoffs, that they actually
feel like they need deep into the fantasy playoffs.
I mean, so, there's two things about that, and I agree, but
there's two things about that one.
We did already see him start once and he didn't look ready
from a passing standpoint, which, right, kind of, I think
provide Shanahan some cover and then to Shannon doesn't give a
shit about draft Capital, but we just saw Barry sermon.
We saw Barry. I you don't buy this, I don't
buy this. Take, okay.
Why not? I mean, okay.
Okay. So part of it comes from the
idea that like, you know, he drafted, Joe Williams, the third
or fourth round and immediately he's like, whatever.
And then he drops tray sermon in the third round and immediately
Place Elijah Mitchell over him. Drafting a running back in the
third round and then drafting a running back in the sixth round.
And then you end up a couple months later, preferring the guy
in the sixth round. That doesn't mean that you don't
care about draft couple, it means that you're sharp.
And you understand how running back Works in.
This guys are playing this guy, whatever.
Who cares like it's different than saying that the number
three overall pick. Yeah.
Not feeling it in November the year that you selected them and
by the way you selected them after trading up, you bet the
whole franchise on the sky you and your GM just like got to.
They're like, let's better jobs on this guy and then in
November, you're like, I don't know.
Like will always get another first round pick, like in the
eye, you stuff. I think to some extent that's
motivational he's out on the field now as well.
And also Depot Samuels estar. So the fact that he's not out
producing Depot Samuel, we didn't know Depot.
Was this good. So I think he's a bit of an
asshole. He's definitely willing to mess
around with early draft picks the way other coaches aren't.
But like, but you got to say, he doesn't care about, he doesn't
care about perception. Yeah.
I mean that's the way I would frame it.
He doesn't like he did not care about perception when it came to
IU Cayucos good last year and he was like, fuck it.
I'm gonna treat it like a rookie, right?
I agree with that too because we keep we talk a lot about teams.
Trying to say face on early round draft picks like like with
the IU stuff, making him a healthy, scratch, like
first-round pick. He doesn't give a fuck.
He's like, if he's in his doghouse.
He's in his fucking dog house. He, he does not give a shit once
they're on the team. Yeah, although like, you know,
the Buccaneers draft Keshawn Vaughn.
They immediately end up bearing him and I don't think that, I
think he's on Vaughn was was a bust.
And they realized they quickly. And they moved on, like, I don't
think that, I just, I think the sermon component of the way is
no, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
The Logical endpoint of that? Is that Ron Jones has a bus
that's the logical endpoint of what you just said.
Well, as you said, when you got married, you got married this
year. Sure.
But you're, but I don't actually think, No Jones.
Good is a very similar case to sermon because sure, maybe here
was good. Yeah, for a while.
Yeah, right. He got it.
He got his chance and they decide to move on, they bring it
for net, but the, but the point with, I mean, they bring in, for
net, partly because they're like, yeah, maybe this Jones guy
doesn't have it. And also, we pretty sure the
Vaughn guy doesn't have it. So, let's bring in someone that
we, that we feel better about it.
Lois least. We feel like can compete that's
like a good team building move. I think, right?
Like, I don't, I don't, I don't think the sermon part of this
has anything to do with the Lance part.
The fact that especially in the Shanahan system, he's taken
multiple stabs on. Not mean, he's not a day three
guy, but it's not wasn't like an early second.
This isn't Javonte Williams, who got buried.
This is Trey, sermon in the third round.
It should be clear. I don't think Ron Jones the
boss. He still he still better than I
don't want it. Let's just be honest, I'm not
even kind of debate that lets some maybe you'll get one more
chance. Maybe it's playoff playoff
Ronnie. We believe the next team, we're
going to, we're going to be drafted him next year on some
new teeth. Oh yeah.
Let's let's talk about some week. 11, specific waiver wire
decisions. We might have a special guest
joining us in a little bit, but we have 17 minutes to lock.
I am frothing at the at my mouth to reveal our bids here.
Roving of your mouth. What this was a pretty bad week
on the waiver wire like there was no, you know, absolute smash
pics. I did see Don to Foreman
floating around in some of our leagues was, is there anything
else? That's interesting to you guys
this week as far as waivers There's a couple of weeks stash
guys. Patric Taylor is a stash guy.
John Bates is a stash guy if you need to tighten this week
because he might be the starting tight end for Washington this
Sunday. Yeah, so there's some there's
some cheap stuff like that. Goldman Goldman is the best.
Take a peek we've had on a Thursday night.
I think all year. Well yeah we're about to going
to actually get to see him play a little and then yeah, you can
cut him if not or if Patterson plays talk to talk to us about.
About gulman, everyone knows Patterson's questionable, but
like what's the selling point on gulman?
Well yeah, I mean earlier in the year, I was talking about him
because you kind of want to look at those depths backs in
offenses that are generating a lot of high-value touches like
from a team perspective. They've been generating fewer
lately in part because Matt Ryan early in the year look, like you
have like this Roethlisberger Ian, I think is the word that I
made up for signals dead arm. You know, it wasn't in the ball
down the field. He started to throw more
vertical since like the first couple weeks matter.
Right. So there's been some fewer
running back touches there are, you know, high-value touches the
ones that have been there. A lot have been Patterson
generated. He's lining up at receiver, like
he's saying applying running back so I'm a little bit less
optimistic in that sense, but at the same time like a Patterson
mrs. Time if he's out Gorman's, going
to probably get some snaps. Mike Davis is not look good.
This is not a team that has Playmakers.
If he makes some plays early in the game, especially there's no
reason they wouldn't just ride him the same way.
They wrote Patterson, Make one because I need got, they need
someone to be, you know, a producer, and this offense
basically. And so, if he's able to be more
effective than Mike, Davis, pretty quickly, I think he could
actually wind up this week, having more touches than Mike
Davis. Pretty, pretty darn quickly.
It's just a matter of Patterson place because it sounds like he
might actually, yeah. Game time decision.
Pat limited. I feel like both is to say with
the Thursday night stuff. I know another decision we have
in a decent amount of our leagues is how to handle.
It'll remind Ray who we should take a little Victory lap here.
Look absolutely awesome. This past week.
Now we have Damien Harris back. He is going to suit up and play
tomorrow night. A lot of people have tough
decisions with Ramon Drea's, there are be to of whether to
play him in this spot, whether to let him ride what's your lean
right now. If you do have kind of Fringe
options and his range Yeah, it's tough because like the one thing
our Mantra isn't showing well in is is brighter Breakaway rushing
like he has a he's ahead of Harrison and a flexion success
rate. He's ahead way ahead in yards
per out running. He's running back three in yards
per hour on. He's been awesome and Elusive
rating but he's not like a home run hitter type.
I mean had a 4-6-3 40 so he's a big back.
Like that's not going to be who he is but Harris has had a nice.
Anyway runs this year so it's like if that's what the Patriots
are looking for. You know if that's what they
prefer and kind of the early down rusher then we could pretty
easily. See Harris, take back overs, the
early down guy and then they probably still work in Ramon Dre
and you know a receiving rotational Russia roll But is
Bolden involved there, right? So there's like definitely clear
path to failure with him. I'm breaking ties towards
playing him because you have the versatility, which has been the
whole reason I was so attracted to him as a prospect, you know,
you've got the elusive rating, plus the Arts / outrun
plus-size, like there's multiple ways that this guy can get
involved, you know, multiple ways.
The coaches can start to get excited about using basically
said he's very similar, analogy Harris as a player and he Kind
of looked at it. Yeah, yeah.
Your it's yeah, it's a it's discount Nagi so I don't know
that. I don't know how that's going to
work out but I think because you have a couple outs like he can
be in kind of a big James White role.
He can split the early on stuff with Harris and get a few more
Targets on early Downs. Even if Brandon Bolden is
involved, like you've got multiple paths, so you also have
the path of we've seen. You know, what was it, was it
the game against the Jets were all three running backs?
Got Definitely the fucking Falcons on a short week.
Like you could see multiple paths running backs and they've
been very run-heavy over the last three games heavily in the
- in terms of pass, right over expectation, playing good
football, four-game winning streak.
The first game of that winning streak, they were more past
heavy but the last three very much establishing the run, I
think there's going to be enough carries for even a comes back
and is the lead for Harris to get like 15 plus and Ramon try
to get 10 and then like Pat you've been saying he's like the
Rex Burkhead role. Like he's getting this is what
Type of game, where the Rex Burkhead will can get you 10
rushes, and to three catches and then if Bolden misses anything I
think he slides into more routes.
Like you said, if Harris misses anything the big thing we saw
this week was Vermont redid, eat up the green zone work.
Do you get the high-value touches from the you know the
rushing high-value touches and had those two you know short
yards touchdown, see all four of their green zone touches.
So if Harris's for whatever reason, he's going to be good to
go. But if he, if he were to miss
time again in the future, there's two paths now first, And
sin to gain value, like you said I mean there's just multiple
ways both ways and I'll talk about another way is just like
we're talking about Shanahan being you know kind of whimsical
with his stuff. I mean Bill Belichick like he
has no Allegiance has to No One Like if he thinks that Ramon Dre
is his best back and he sees a Dusty you know Carrie from
Damien Harris and pulls the plug like that shit can happen like
if from Andre had 20 carries and you know, Damien Harris had five
on Thursday. None of us would be shocked like
that's Also in the range outcome.
Yeah, and it is a very welcome. Good.
But I was just agreeing. Yeah, you get you get We're
doing a reminder a circle jerk right now.
Did ya one of those just complete blank blank jobs?
Oh earlier in the year, he was a rookie and so he kind of got
been. She had a fumble right?
I think and Harris had a fumble the same game but Harrison,
really get bench for her Mantra did was inactive the next week.
Is that right? Ramon, Dre had a fumble, but
then JG Taylor had a fumble, I think, Then remind you a magic
played, and didn't have a fumble and then he was an active is
mouth isn't moving when he's talking.
It's so confusing. You see this to pee.
Yeah but he's on delay with his audio and video here.
It's just like so I can't I catch up in big spurts.
You can see like the history of me.
But yeah, I mean now we're Mantra has established more.
He worked his way back. Obviously, belcheck saw like,
you know, to our point about sermon and stuff.
Belichick is sort of that way. You will be Area.
Dude, if he doesn't think he's doing the stuff in practice or
magic, clearly was got more chances.
They made him an active, play them again, made him an active.
Again, played him again, worked his way into a bigger World.
Damien Harris is out turn the whole offense over to him last
week, right? They only through 23 times with
Mac Jones, I Think, poyer through like three more after
that, 20 carries from Andre Stevenson rookie, you don't see
that a lot with Belichick turning it over to a rookie like
that. Clearly, he likes Stevenson the
other. And so, yeah, I mean, I think
we're at a sort of a cross. The Rubicon was the That we are
now at a point where he's been a efficient, he's got the
opportunity, he's, you know, very clearly a part of the
offense. Now, even if he has a fumble or
something, I don't think he gets doghouse right away, hopefully.
Hopefully, well, well, so yeah, but knock on wood.
Also hit that long TD run in the preseason.
You made that comment about him not insert the explosive to me.
He looks a little bit like one of those guys when I watch him
like, like, Dalvin cook or somebody who didn't run a great
40 but clearly has on-field explosiveness right?
I know I want, I know. I'm excited about that, too.
I just want to try to be objective.
He's not popping in the Breakaway for the moment.
He has enough long runs to pop and Breakaway percentage.
You better believe, I'm going to be talking about the complete
backroom, Andre Stevens? Can we take, what are the odds?
I, okay, you guys can explain after, but I want a number.
What percentage do you assign to the probability that Mac Jones
goes down as the best quarterback in this draft class.
The best real life quarterback in this draft class is it
because he's the best, or is it? Because perception is he's the
best important. Well, still by EPA per play and
completion percentage over expected.
Remember when I asked you just a number and then said, you could
explain. I just wanted to the question,
I'm sorry, I'm sorry for being a good guy.
Mac Jones, had the best week in epaper play.
Which is an efficiency metric that's actually predictive of
any quarterback all season last week and he had the highest cpoe
of any quarterback All Season. He was off the charts efficient
last week now. I mean it's like kind of amazing
ideal conditions. They're clearly limiting him.
You know, they're not asking to do a ton.
So you know, they're setting me up to be big to be very
efficient but you set up a lot of quarterbacks to be very
efficient in their not. So I think he's like really Lee
flashing as kind of an ideal version of what you were hoping.
He might be, which is like, basically, Matt Ryan.
Like, he might be Matt Ryan, I think, Trevor Lawrence.
Trevor Lawrence looks like really bad.
Alrighty, so it looks like, full-blown, like bus territory
for Lawrence to be honest. Like, that's where we're at.
Like I'm not saying he is a bust but like It's like time to start
asking the question. If like this guy, might be a
boss. Like that's how bad his rookie
season has been Zach Wilson. I think we can already start to
think, he probably is a bust. Trey Lance didn't show much as a
pastor, he's, I mean, for Fantasy purposes, like he can be
Jalen hurts and I was just gonna say that that's that's is that
the ceiling for land like we're hoping for hurts, you're hoping
for hurts in a Shanahan system like that sounds amazing to me.
That's why I'm still extremely excited about Lance like, Like
people, you know I was saying like he's clearly the number one
quarterback and Dynasty from this class and people did not
like that. Take but to me like who cares,
if he's not going to be this incredibly polished passer,
eventually they're going to have to start them.
They're just going to have to be drafted him.
Third overall in the trade, it up for him.
It's happening guys. The other guy that Lance this is
probably because he played in San Fran, but like, he really
does remind me of Colin Kaepernick a little bit.
Yeah, me too went to a Super Bowl like like, yeah, good
quarterback, even though people always said he wasn't that good
of a pastor and This but he's got a big arm like Kaepernick,
you know, he's mobile. He's competitive.
Kaepernick was always very competitive when he played
anyway since it's on I love the cough.
I just want to pull out this comment by his son Pete.
This one. No, no, Trevor Lawrence one.
Here we go. Yeah, just tired but you didn't
even say Justin Fields. I wanted to hear where you're
going to go, Justin, but Yeah no.
Well I just said the Kaepernick thing I love because people also
forget because they remember I'm kind of at the end of his career
when he wasn't really like he'd lost a bunch of muscle.
He's like skinny kapernick, like he used to actually be like a
really awesome Russian quarterback plus, plus the
passing. So you're getting, I think some
fantasy ceiling there even with the Kaepernick comp which people
might not love Justin fields to me is like you like to gamble.
Do you like to gamble? Get yourself.
Justin Fields because what's happened is offseason, most
likely they're going to fire feet.
They're going to fire Nagy if they hired a ball, right?
If they hire Davis mentioned, Greg Roman which should be
pretty interesting. I don't think they would but
maybe they hire defensive guy and they bring enrollment as the
offensive coordinator. If they hire like someone like
Gabe although he's immediately we're going to be so excited.
He's going to be the number one quarterback in the class.
And I think he has looked better as a passer than Lance, and if
we're going to get rushing with like summon some intelligent
passing design around that, like, oh my God.
But if they hire some like defensive coordinator, like, get
the locker room and shaped like than, like an old Tom Coughlin
Matt Patricia type dude, like, you're done, like we're not, we
don't want not going to have any hope for fields for the next
like, three, four seasons. And so I think your, your
outcomes are tilted to the upside and you hit, you could
hit the lottery with with the coaching higher, but I'd
honestly rather have Lance then Fields right now.
But Fields. I would much rather have the
alarms. I was get it.
Yeah, I feel like Fields has the widest range of outcomes of
these guys right now, I think Lawrence does really.
I feel like your band is involved are up already being a
bust and he, I think he still has plenty of upside.
We've seen like, Peyton Manning was a buses right here, like I
know it's a really long time ago, but rookie quarterbacks can
be bad and then be good after that.
I don't think he's a bus yet. I don't think he's a bus yet
either. But, don't you think Justin
Fields 99th percentile? Come as far more exciting than
Lawrence's? Yes.
That's the upside, the 99th like fancy.
Yeah but like for NFL Lawrence bike.
Profiles is I mean yeah, probably probably four Fields.
Yeah, it just sucks. I also have lots of awful,
coaches awful systems. It fucking yes.
But urban urban is not getting fired and this offseason.
They're good-looking, they're waiting for you.
We need to get him canceled. Not fired.
I mean, yeah, that's our what happened there.
Where were you on that one? Peep through the influencer
people want me to release the bids?
Should I tell everyone? Deonte Foreman bed.
I had a $1 Patric Taylor In pistol is behind when Goldman, I
was gonna say, I messed up. I didn't have many Patric Taylor
bits and my first sweep through 01 guy.
You were asking about random names.
I'll throw out a random name. Justin Jackson is a guy that I
think is a fun one. Oh yeah, tell us about Justin
Jackson. I saw you mentioned that 659.
You got to give a bit. We'll just tell him after seven.
Anyone here it was named in fast enough.
We have 120. $1, Deonte Foreman bed.
Someone that's what we need. Let's go on the ticket.
Like that's like a live team where we actually need Foreman.
Dude. The people honor the bit that
you've created but like not fuck us.
And then every time God and you do it.
Is it hits nine for the United States?
God's at the 11 other? Odors in this specific League or
upping their bid to 122? Right already happened like
several times. Chris one point was like, well,
if only, if only we had Stevenson and you're like, the,
what we don't have Stevenson on this team and he's like, yeah,
cuz this is the one where you gave away our Stevenson bit, a
crack rock, is it bad if I give people are exact bed sores that
giving back to the community, it's 10 p.m. you can give the
exact page and wasn't when he gave the been prior to attend.
GM is the point. Yeah, you know what, I think
there's so many teams that are out of it that even, you know,
most who is in our league Frank, who watches it or something
like, was his name Frank more cowbell?
Yeah yeah, more cowbell. So he's out of it.
So if he's watching, it doesn't matter.
It's really no cocktails and dreams is and watching.
So you don't think Chad, Schroeder is a big ship chasing
fan? I don't know, he's just a fan of
himself, but But he's the one coming up, our Trail.
We're looking, we're looking pretty good.
Oh, I didn't, I didn't even look because they didn't add ffp.
See is slow. So we shot up 2-0, cocktails,
and dreams is six and four. Oh, we got a hundred point lead
on him. So we're good.
Do you want to tell him to sign this?
No, I do cocktails is I don't mind.
He's fine. When he was just he was
defending Hubbard one time and I just went off on him just and he
you know he blocked me of course.
Greg right. I mean we really we didn't have
any foreplay here. How are you doing, buddy?
I'm doing great. He came in just firing just like
spraying bullets, everywhere. No, I'm doing great.
I got a wedding for my nephew, this weekend in Philly.
So I'm going to get Cheesesteaks I'm pumped about that and I
don't know. Pat's is your choice.
But I'm definitely going to be hitting pads and, you know, be
doing a couple of the walrus I just hit up a couple walrus
hits. So that was nice and it sounds
and I mean my dispensaries doing great.
We just opened the little cafe in there now.
So you can come in and have your cup of Coffee.
And later that night, it turns into a little drinking
establishment and the Berkshire soon to check it out.
Wait, cracker, let me know when this is, I mean, I'll fucking
meet you at this. I mean, you tell me I can go get
a spresso and then smoke a joint, and then I can go have a,
what, what kind of drinks do you have at night at this place?
No, we got a liquor license. So we gotta get localized.
Yeah, so it's just, you know, just spend the whole They there.
And then my next thing is to do a like, like an Airbnb for, you
know, for cannabis enthusiasts. Were we're going to open up a
anyone. Anyone getting an Airbnb?
Is a cannabis Enthusiast. Correct.
Especially like you could you've been dialed the circle, you know
the Berkshires for the weekend and be like, I want this Fang.
I want this. Swede, I want this and it'd all
be there for you. When you arrive and then
whatever you want can be brought to you right from the shop.
I love it. Yeah.
So and then everything's going to be new and it's like a
cannabis Hotel. Purposefully County.
This is this, people want this, they want to, you know, they
want to go on vacation to have a little, you know, in Colorado.
Why were they have these all around?
But we're going to do it on the Berkshires because the
Berkshires is so sweet. You know, you go to Tanglewood.
There's so many great restaurants in Lenox you know
really top-notch. They got some really good
restaurants. I mean some of the chefs in New
York all go up there to Lennox and open up restaurants so it's
going to be like a travel destination and of course you
know we're going to you know, if you need to Whatever, you know,
bigger that you need. If you need to double barrel or
you need, you know, whatever you want.
It's going to be brand-new with there and then you can just
leave and then we just give it to, you know, the manager to
keep. Yeah, well, keep me posted.
I need my official invitation to I went to the Berkshires a
couple summers ago. I enjoyed it but I didn't get
hello lifted. When I was out there and and I
need to the Berkshires are great.
It's like Discovered country up there, it's God's country it's
just it's beautiful up there and especially even in the winter
time. It's great because of the that's
what killer restaurants. And then you add the Cannabis in
there and the restaurants just become even better crack.
Let's get this back on track. Yeah.
What's going on with your fantasy season?
What's going on with these Twitter spaces, you're doing
what? It's going on.
Yeah, I had I had Pat's good buddy, day, go on and we did a
spaces and we actually gave some really great with we gave
Conklin. We were pumping who had two
touchdowns, we had some good pickups their people.
One guy had a trade or he could was able to get my homes for
burrow and like Dawson Knox and we made them go on that.
So, They goes just what a good guy and he's got a little radio
experience. So he was doing like the crack
rock, Bagel our and and using the times, like it's 9:30 and
it's time I can drink you under a table to.
I feel like you guys should you guys should get together for a
Power Hour? Oh, absolutely.
I would love to, but he was worse.
He because he was an hour away. So he's I mean hour time
difference, he's a transient Nomad.
It's hard to know what he's in. Silvis house.
He's been sober for a while. Now he hunkers down during the
season. Once the offseason, he hits the
road. He throws his little nap sack
over his shoulder and he starts heading out.
That's a corncob pipe. In his mouth, his tax from put,
do my I have right now, I'm in 75% of My teams are in playoff
contention. 30% are in Championship contention so I'm
having a good year. I'm having a really good year.
This team is just Cooper kept away from being incredible.
Oh yeah, it is. Work up to be fair, it's really
scary. How good this team?
It's just unbelievable. How that one and this is just
shows you how fragile the draft can be.
How just one pic and you guys are watching this earlier.
How you know this year has been like you just had to pick the
right guy and nothing is a more perfect example of that than for
me. There was no Us in that Robert
Wood. Yeah, like, no.
No, don't do it. Don't do it.
Crack crack. I gotta give you credit for
Willie to come on here and get these jokes every week.
Like, if I was the guy that touted Robert Woods over Cooper
cup, it was on record. You guys would never have heard
for me for about a year. Hey, Hey look, it's you know, as
I said I cannot tell a lie. I cut down the Bobby trees
trees. The truth.
That's one thing I believe in, there's nothing to hide and if
you do not own up to your mistakes, then you're just, you
know, you're just not a man and I can man up and say.
Oh, I did want to take for net and all right, not to have it
both ways here. Okay.
Thank you, Henry. Thank you, Henry.
I did. I also did want Gronk, but he
did get hurt. But, you know, look there's no.
If ands or, you know, either hindsight's 20/20, the bottom
line is, this team has three players that are 500k players.
So when you have Alan digs in, Tyreke Hill.
They themselves can carry you through into our playoff.
So we just got to sneak in and get into that Championship round
because there's something wrong with Mike Williams.
I am dropping that ball on I guess he was on the two-yard
line. It was right in his hands.
So I was just gonna ask you about that because Mike Williams
is this guy that it's been like a tale of two seasons, you know,
through four or five weeks. We're like holy Shit, this guy's
a League winner. Like, where are you?
Where are you guys at on him right now?
Like it is, it somewhere in the middle of what we've seen?
Can he get back to those Heights?
Like what's going on with him? Yeah, he also he had that drop.
That could have been the TV. He also went out of bounds.
I think I don't want no, I'm thinking of, Michael Gallup
going out. The one but I know he either.
Maybe maybe Williams got tackled at the one.
He made it to the one before. Learning roundtree's one-yard,
touchdown this week had a third Red Zone Target still In that
that Red Zone work. I think the biggest thing is
just I mean I've talked about this in stealing signals a
little bit. The quarterbacks who are not
throwing down field as much the two deep shells.
It's not just Kansas City, it's not just Buffalo it's permeating
a lot of different teams Herbert has not been as vertical lately
and I've seen some conversation that it's an issue with the with
the offense they're not having him push it on the field or
whatever but they haven't had as many opportunities you had a
chance deep to Williams a couple of weeks ago.
The We rolled right and kind of threw it back left and yes,
awesome opportunity. I mean, but we're just not
getting as much vertical passing like literally around the leak
and Herbert's not been immune to it.
So a lot of targets have shifted to Keenan Allen.
That's the way I'm reading it. Yeah, but it's just because it
is a DOT increased as well, which is, you know, one of the
things that we were excited. When is a DOT fell?
Because he had been this traditionally, you know, deep
threat only guy and his eight outside belief back up.
I'm trying to pull it up which is why my video keeps freezing.
Did waivers. Has run.
They did did we just lose if I can crack rock dropped and Pat's
Pat's? I'm still here, I'm still here.
Okay, I don't have the receiving a tower right now but Herbert's
pass. A doubt has been under six.
Both the last two weeks, it was not under 6 for the first seven
games of the year. So is yes to low as they don't
see these last couple weeks. Well, Gretsch, what's your take?
Because there was this narrative early on that he was in, you
know, like the, the Michael Thomas Role in this offense.
He was getting used in all areas of the field.
It look like he had flipped Keenan Allen did that just get
reversed. Its something happened was that
small, you know, a small sample size variants like it does seem
weird. Yeah.
That's a good point. I actually had not looked at
their weekly, a tots, I don't look at it on a lot in the
weekly level so that's what my missed and Pat pointing out, I
just pulled it up. I mean, yeah, it's nine point
eight. Eight point six nine point to
The League average receivers run around. 11.
So he was like below League. Average getting some like, short
yardage targets and then it goes up to 17.8, 14.4 15.6, 11.6
12.8. Last week he was this says 1.7
that seems wrong but the rest of those for a stretch were, you
know, all above average and clearly higher than those first
three weeks. So, that's something I had not
noticed, have you? Yeah.
When you go up to like, why I don't think it's good.
I like I think the When you have a guy that's like at 9:00, you
know, that's the, Michael Thomas roll, right?
You might see like like a Davante Adams around that range
but when you're up at like, you know 1415, like that's the
monster Smith, you can be in between you know Tyree killed
this year. We're thinking like Alzheimer
kill seeing a lot more shallow targets.
I believe he's right around 11.5.
So when you see that giant shift of my quill And it's going back
to something that we were used to seeing him in before.
I don't know. I mean, and it's not just for
like one or two weeks. It's been a huge, long stretch
here. Now, it's definitely concerning.
Yeah, he got hurt, he got hurt, he's playing through injury.
There's no doubt that Mike Williams was hurt that one time,
you know? He was killing it and then he
got hurt. But hopefully, you know, as time
goes by, he's going to, he's going to come on because as far
as Quarterbacks Go. I mean, he has one of the best
going there. So, that's, that's what, you
know, keeps me going. Is because Herbert is just so
good and it just defenses are kind of catching up to him, but
he should be fine if we could just get Javonte to get more
carries and that Mystic. Yeah, I mean the point that
fumble is going to help us Get some more like a 70/30, split
versus the 50/50, Gordon split, I mean he's so much better than
Gordon that that touchdown that guy called back just made me
just I was tilting on that. But you know, is he someone you
could see you know doing more of a 70/30 split as the season goes
on. Maybe we know this is sort of
the post by rookie bump, but the Williams played a season High
snap sharing this game this past week.
One thing I wrote about signals was that a lot of it was just
late in pass heavy situations. He ran a lot more routes than he
typically has his well, but he didn't get a lot more touches
because they weren't like, you know, dumping it off to them.
They both wound up with 10 touches in a Williams and
Gordon. So I wrote that like that
particular game to me wasn't really you.
No evidence of a turning of the tide, he was just sort of
playing in a blowout but, you know, the young guy and the
veteran was taken out of the game, but after the Bible they
could actually make a shift, you know?
Yeah. And that's what I'm hoping for.
I'm just hoping for like, well, they're not.
Can you know they're not like fighting for a spot?
And that kind of makes me want to think that they're going to
give him more carries. The other thing is just we need
the the Allen Diggs combo to start heating.
Obviously, it hasn't been the killer than it was last year,
but I feel like it's starting to pick up like, when they got
embarrassed by the Jags that 96 game.
I think they got a tongue, lashing.
And obviously they were playing the Jets, but I think they're on
the way up. And I think Mahomes also, then
that goes to Tyree Hill is on the way up because he even
missed Hill on like, An 80-yard touchdown in that game.
He should have had a third touchdown where he was wide open
and homes, just missed him. So I think Mahomes is going to
get even better and if we can just get some sort of our be,
you know, just, you know, that 10 15 points a week, you know,
then our team can really come playoff time could really shine.
So, we got a real chance. And then the only other Other
wild card we have is is Ronald Jones.
If you know, he's obviously just been.
I've never seen anyone just completely just phased out of
the game. So we would need an injury.
Well, since Robert was we haven't seen anyone.
That picture. And you know what?
It Robert Woods was just coming on too.
It that that was a shame but I still think of he defenses are
going to key on him and he was coming down and they were they
didn't look as good without him and that Notre Dame.
Rookie came in tried to fill his shoes.
Then Jefferson came in, tried to fill his shoes that they're not
the same and seem like a Rams of really don't look as good as
they did. I don't know any teams that
really look good. Except for me, it's the bills.
I think the bills are coming out and then we have Zach moths
there. So exact moth somehow more
involved in the passing game, because when I saw breathe out
there, I was like, oh yeah, I was tilting.
Oh, so talking. What what?
We didn't talk about that in the the pre way, verloc stuff.
But what is your guys's read on? You know, breed I know he wasn't
playing a ton of snaps and stuff and Zack Moss was limited in
practice, but how are you guys interpreting?
Kind of the bills backfield after last week?
Garbage. So him it's just that they
literally don't. I mean, just look at the
difference between San Francisco.
How they run the ball, and what the bills do?
I mean the bills, the basically, their running game is
non-existent. I mean, the running game is
really Josh Allen. So when you have Singletary and
now you add breathe it in there, it just makes it even uglier.
But the good thing about Zack Moss is it does seem like he
does come in on the goal line situations, so that gives me a
little bit of Hope. But then again, you know, well,
the good thing for us is if on the goal line, we have Zack.
If we have Zack moss and we have Josh Alan, it's a guarantee
touchdown. So the more they score it's
basically just going to feed into our team.
I have breaking is the team where I release the Deonte
Foreman bid. Did secure the Deonte Foreman
bag. So Pat, well, right, giant
exhale, few sigh of relief. The hi guys, when you sneak
around impressive that for the last 20 minutes, this is this is
our team with Paul. It's a pretty damn fun team and
it's actually kind of similar to our crack rock team.
Not as good at quarterback but just absolutely loaded at wide
receiver Jones, the other good thing about form it is I saw
that McNichols had a concussion. Oh, I don't know who I am.
Yeah. So that just hit that was I just
saw that come over. So if McNichols is out with that
concussion that again, that gives him even more.
PPR so that could be huge because we know no one throat,
you know, they don't throw anything unless it's just a
weird thing so you can really take over that entire backfield
and get like, you know, 70 80 % of the carry.
So, Foreman would be huge and he was free for a while.
I got I got some form and but obviously, he was mostly gone at
this point. So with McNichols out of former
could be a stud for you that a plug in there, that team does
look good. Obviously, don't have job
challenge, but the Mark Andrews kind of makes up for that versus
versus our team were fan fan, actually started to come on.
So I'm pumped about Out fan getting those calories and if
Denver we do have the Fant Javonte combo.
So if Teddy can get his head on straight because he looks so
bad. This weekend, I've never seen a
quarterback just missed. Even in the end of the game, he
had Tim Patrick a wide open in the end zone and he completely
overthrew him, I guess we didn't get anyone.
Had a just wait till you see trulock crack rock.
He misses guys, even worse. It's amazing.
We got we got cam in a San Francisco defense and looks like
Kenny gain well for a buck on this team.
Oh, I did want to say on on Javonte Williams like there
there's been no signs that they're going to move to him
more. In fact, like if there's been
any movement, it's actually been towards Gordon, but he has been
so good that like it is hard for me to believe, especially coming
out of the body that we See some kind of change, maybe the
fumbles, like I've seen some reaction like, why would, why
would they make a big move off of just one fumble, but it's
like they just need some kind of excuse to play Williams more
her, they drafted. Highly and he leads, he leads
the league. And Breakaway percentage tied,
with Jonathan Taylor for number one overall Breakaway percentage
and he's behind Nick Chubb for second in the list of writing
and he broke BFFs record. They he's the highest in the PFF
database in career, elusive rating.
So the the thing we thought he was going to be amazing at has
translated immediately. Like this is a huge huge Bowl
signal for how good this guy's Sean's that on bananas the other
day that he's the best running back of his class.
He's better than nausea Ji-hyo. He is, he's a but he's a, he's a
better running back now. I mean fantasy wise, like, but
Naji. Nahas he has left more points on
the field fantasy points. Over expected. / P FF than any
running back in the leak. He's the lowest in - fantasy
points of expect a game. That's not to say, he's bad,
he's not, you know, but I he's not showing exceptional special
qualities, other than an ability to handle huge workload and he's
got good burst and he's, you know, he gets what's blocked,
he's pretty solid, but Javonte ones might be like a superstar.
Like that's the that's what he's flashing.
Oh from the eye test. You see when you see Javonte
run. I mean, I'm a boomer.
You runs with Earl Campbell. He's just so powerful.
And obviously, no one knows who her old Campbell is, but he over
him, but he has that explosiveness and he poured.
It was Earl Campbell, like, a leather helmet guy.
Yeah, he goes back with that George.
That was that George Clooney film leathernecks.
He can turn the corner and go up the middle.
So, I mean, how many, how many running backs have that
capability and his buddy in North Carolina.
Michael Carter. Is at scoring him that just
blows me away that Michael Carter is now coming on.
And it's all because of, you know, the amazing PP our
ability, he gets and he's getting the goal line carries
and that when those goal line carries go to Gordon, it just It
just grew his brutal, it's brutal but I think maybe we can
as the season goes on and the Broncos.
Just finally just say look we got to just give him 20 carries
game and just let no one go out to pasture and if somehow we can
get Zack Moss getting five catches a game, you know, we
have basically three bills on our Squad and if the bills just
started scoring 30, 40 pop, The scratch.
That's how we went. So you know and then we have two
and then we need fan really to come on.
We do need. We do need fan in a big way.
I don't know if Alberto got hurt, I don't know what happened
there to see him on the field, but I don't know why fan isn't
getting well, it's Teddy. Bridgewater of course, but it's
going to be fine. Yeah, basically fun.
And that really just if we get, we get into the playoffs.
Mode and get your Vontae moss. And it have Alan in there with
locket Williams, digs, and tyriq.
I mean, that's all you can ask for and that, that's, that's
legit with faith in there because it's digs its digs and
he'll and Josh hollan that are going to make or break us
obviously. And if locket can, I don't know
what Russell Wilson was doing. I mean it's yeah, that was bad.
That's weird family, he should get better but the only problem
is the Hawks are so bad and they're not in the playoffs and
then if Mike Williams gets healthy.
So we're there were not looking as good as we were last year
because we had Eckler and Derrick Henry.
So this was a different look, but we just got to make the
playoffs, man. Yeah, well, I was going to say
everything. You guys were saying about
Javonte to Circle back to Breda Shawn.
I would talk a little bit like, right.
I felt like Watching that game that he brought something that
neither Moss or Singletary has really brought for several weeks
just like an explosiveness, and he only played eight snaps.
Like Pete said, they got six touches, you scores two
touchdowns you racks up 50 yards.
It's not a huge role or anything, but I, I think similar
to what we're saying about Javonte.
When coaches see something like that, you're hoping that they
realize get the guy. We also had three targets
though. And that's it's like, he can't,
thank, you know, bed. Like I don't have, you have you
looked at like, the high-value Touches for The teams have you
dug into that this year? Yeah.
Hello and exerting every addition to stealing sickles.
Okay the team have I touched off.
Yeah yeah. So the I mean they've got to be
like the lowest for the running backs and in the league right?
Yeah. Let me pull it up.
They are. Yeah.
Just the the factually closer to middle of the pack there.
Not that low. Yeah, below average.
Slightly blow up. We can't have map reader coming
here and slicing off a big chunk of the high-value touches.
Yeah, Yeah, exactly. That took the words out of my
mouth. Is it just the fact that Britta
just came out of nowhere? Just showed up and got two.
Touchdowns is just is just just not good.
No, no, it's not good. The only other thing is, we can
get lucky during the playoffs and maybe the other teams don't
have any fat left and we can no luck out.
And some, you know, Damien Williams cream haunt of a past
and Something there. But again, it's it.
Having three of the top basically best players in the
league under team helps. You know, the Tyree killed digs
in Allen is going to make us not know, really think.
I really think the bills are coming on and, you know, they're
just going to keep chocolate and digs Bust It Out Colby's Lee's
hurt. Yeah, that rib.
He's got some rib injuries and and that just makes him or Alan
look to digs even more. So we can get that that those
targets up to above 10 every game and that'll, you know, will
be the bills and with moss sneaking in there.
If, you know, breeded doesn't get too many the carries.
Maybe they can. They can phase out Singletary.
Who's been Who's been awful but again, we have players on really
good teams in high scoring teams and that's that's the biggest
key. Because at this point, it's so
important to have people on good teams.
I mean, the Andre Swift is a perfect example of put the Andre
Swift on the Chiefs and just think about what he would do.
You know, who the Chiefs going to had.
They could have had Jonathan Taylor.
Yeah. Can you imagine Who is way they
took CH over JT? Yeah.
Took him over everybody, it took
about a couple pics over Swift swift looks like what the second
pick of the of the second round. But like 10 picks ahead of
Taylor went like 10th pick of the second round.
I'm totally doing that off memory, but somewhere in that
range, yes, eh has been the biggest disappointment.
It's I mean Darrell Williams look unreal.
And he showed off what, you know, if you can catch the ball
out of the backfield, how good he can be and he just doesn't do
that. It's just so it's mind-boggling.
That's the thing with ch right is he's a part of this Joe
pretty system where the Throne of the running back a ton, but
his yards per hour on actually wasn't very high in college and
then he comes in and his your Sprout, run sucks.
This year it's like 0.73 or something off top and it's bad
and anything. Moss and dudes out there.
Yeah, he's intelligent, he's shop.
So I mean, honestly, it's starting to look like CH is kind
of a Josh Jacobs type where he was like a receiving guy in
college, but now is going to be kind of a to down guy in the
pros but it's not even as good for runners Josh Adkins.
That's now he's not, he's not as good, a writer.
And that's what amazes me is. Just, it's just not that good,
you know, he just know, the eye test is all you really need.
And when you think about it, I mean, when you see Javonte run
and I'm just going back, there, there is no one in the league
that you just feel like, damn, I don't want to tackle that
besides Derrick Henry. He's just, just seems like that
type of guy. Yeah, see, he's the guy.
Everyone says, Swift is a guy that should have taken.
He would fit their system better, all the stuff like they
don't actually throw to the running backs that much like I
don't I think Swift would have been doing a lot better than CH
but I think he would have like a million targets like he In
Detroit, if he was in Casey, I think Taylor's together the
clues you're taking. He was the better Taylor's.
I mean he was a top prospect to me but also you think about like
Casey they face all these teams dropping into these deep zones.
You give Taylor a light box like the ability to switch up Beats
girl passenger him over. Yeah, it would be girly.
And when you have the thing is, it's not that you want someone
who can actually like, fit your system perfectly.
I mean, it's kind of like a jake Dylan.
I think people, some people are kind of concerned like, oh,
how's it going to fit in? Or they can be like this ground
upon seeing if you can do both like, you can Basically have
your camera and be an Aaron, Rodgers passing offense.
Yes. And switch within different
drives whenever you want. That's, that's an incredible
asset, right? Like the defense can't play
anything, you're screwed. I remember, we were close to
Dylan. I don't know if we have our
draft for it up, but I remember he was real close.
I think we've got sniped on him because he would have been
sowing. That would have just go through.
Had a lot of dealings. Good, dude, Dylan look so good
like all good man. His feet along the sidelines.
His balance. Like, yeah, he's good.
He's really good. I have a plan was a huge BC fan.
And, oh, wow, this is bringing back some memories here.
So here we could have taken, we would have had to take AJ Dillon
over Fuller. We should have done that.
What do you guys think about Fuller's prospects?
Rest of season. I did some Twitter searching and
all I found were memes of really ridiculous.
Looking hands. The people are.
So upset with Fuller, not being back from a hand injury yet.
I have no, I've not found any actual information on when we
could expect it is the biggest mystery.
I've no idea. I've never seen a guy just
having a hand injury and just every week he just doesn't show
up and if anyone needs a wide receiver, it's a dolphin's.
So I am I actually talked to Sean a little bit after
recording bananas yesterday about.
Out Fuller. And he's always been the huge
Fuller guy. So I'll give you the direct Sean
take, which was that it was it was kind of a funny little
conspiracy theory take where he was just like something about
like, you know, you know, florges it back there, like
screw this, like they brought out Jacoby. / said, I'm going to
lay low until they get to a back in and then I'm going to come
back. I'm on a one-year deal, didn't
really work out. Got her, whatever and smashing
the last four games and then go at the free agent Market.
Again like he is on a one-year deal, like I think John was, you
know, he was kind of kidding, he's kind of laughing as he said
it, but would it be that surprised?
I mean, foolish good. Like, what about surprising if
he had a big final month because he knows, he's a free agent
here, coming up, is he saying Fuller's got the Bi-Lo machine
up and he's just looking at the Miami schedule figuring out when
to something exactly what weather come back and smash her
that he could get big money because free agency didn't go as
well, lying low and himself. Yeah, well they said he's not
playing this week so I mean when you think it's just fine.
Tsar. I mean, I don't know what's
wrong with the guy and they need, they need him in a big way
because we Targets this year and four catches.
I feel like you played more than that so he is eight targets All
Season. He's been on all my rosters.
You know what is your take on this?
And the worst is you can tell you're still holding onto taysom
Hill. They're interesting.
Yeah, this is, this is our team with Shawn the and we did get
Fuller and this This and this is another team.
That's a you know a bit of a sleeping you know giant here.
If we get sick one coming back. We you know, we have the DeAndre
say Quan, we have Kyler, if he gets healthy, you got digs Chase
combo, we have, you know, the nut kicker defense combo like
this team can be a monster DJ more.
I almost put in over am Andre, then I saw you guys emails were
thinking about playing or Madre / DJ more know.
So the question to me, the conversation around here.
Andre has to do with sake one, right?
If, if we think say Kwan's good, I think we definitely play DJ
moreover, Madre. If we're worried about Sake,
One, not suiting up, then then we get really dicey territory,
because if we don't play Ramon Dre tomorrow and say Quan
doesn't go, now we're playing, you know, Devonta Freeman or
Singletary? Yeah, he won.
You got to put DJ Morgan, come on in there.
I mean, roll the dice man, you know, Greg, I'll do it for you.
I mean, I don't understand that Damien Harris.
Is that a concussion protocol? He's plan yet.
No. So the issue isn't again with
reminder. It's how do we feel?
Oh, oh, oh. He does a sports recap in New
York and he had Joe, judge on and Joe judge basically said
after the break is especially because Booker's hurt that
sequence, back the ankles good and that he's going to play so
that team that team is nice too, especially sake, one is coming
back. The ankle is the swelling's
down. He's been, he's been working on
it. He's been at practice.
So that team is Is really good because waddle has been someone
who's who's really been impressive but just flying under
the radar so that that team. I like a lot.
So you've got to roll the dice and place a quan.
I'll reach out ones that gave other games tomorrow.
I'm going to, I'm going to reach out to Bruce and and just see if
he has any insight and then I have a friend in the in the GM
office. Who I can contact on sais, quoi,
but everything, I'm reading here from the New York standpoint, is
that take one is back and Joe, judges even said, and that was
and that was Sunday. So, everything I'm reading is
positive on that. And then with Damien Harris and
back, I don't think how, I don't know how you can play Stevenson
there and put DJ more on a bench.
Well, it's just that if we don't Get Berkeley.
Then what are we doing? Who were your other running
backs? Their did you have anything that
looked at? How do we have?
We have free men who I think. Is fine?
Yeah, yeah. So Freeman versus Freeman and DJ
more versus Stevenson and say, Quan is that the trade-off right
there? Both make one and DJ more would
be the ideal I think. Yeah.
Ya wanna play vermonter into like it's from Andre.
And what? Because we could always pull
over Monterey and more visually. Yeah.
Singletary, there as well. It is Marina be back this week.
Are you have Mac Jones? Okay?
Because yeah. But he plays.
Yeah. Is there word on Murray who is
he Marie was at practice today? Okay, yeah so yeah Maria Maria
just proved my mouse to click on that pretty close.
Pretty close. All right.
That's still because they've been they've been doing this
game time, decision thing. And I know you'll be
questionable and and go he's because he didn't come back to
practice until Friday of last week and then he practi was dnp
Wednesday and Thursday practice today.
I don't I didn't see. It was limited or full, but I
think that's already a great sign.
Oh, you're 5 and 5. We have the most points in the
league. Okay, yeah.
It's um, Evil. How you can have the most points
to be five and five. Yeah, look at that.
Look at the entire league as fucking five and five.
This is like, meanwhile, there's a guy with less points.
He's 10 and no laces out. I mean, it's just that's why I
like victory points. I mean victory points.
I do have one lead with victory points and victory points.
I don't know if he ever play victory points and ffp.
See but basically you get two points for a win.
But if you're in the top six scoring, you get an extra point
so you can get three points and that basically saves you from if
you do lose. But you did have a high scoring
team, you can still get a point and that basically evens things
out in all the high stakes to 5Ks and 10ks, they use victory
points and it's a, it's a great scorn.
It is a great scorn but that that team is is pretty sick.
So weird, You guys got some are all your Mains getting into the
playoffs. No, no, no we have we have like
probably five teams that are locked and loaded for the
playoffs and then we have another, you know, three or so
that are are surging and could really do noise and then we
probably have six that are dead. I would say it's probably how
many smaller the 350s did you guys do?
Do we don't we basically eradicated that we're in 10, you
just like, yeah. Yeah, man.
I'm so glad we did that to you every night of the week.
It's just when you have to pay the / on waivers and you know
thankfully we got serum in the Discord taken the lead on our
mailman ffp, see draft, we have our quad manage Bros over at
Road of has taken the lead on that one, but it's just it's a
lot, it's a lot even with our kind of co-manager program and
doing a lot like going through those, I mean, it fucking to it,
takes like an hour and a half for me to, like, go through all
the teams and check it against ranks.
And that's just for, like Fifteen teams like it is nuts.
Yeah, it's a lot. You don't get your preacher
said, well I know I know you guys do way more than I do that.
That's why I think if you if you made it and you did do 30
rounds, imagine drafted you just do 30 rounds and then just every
player is that that's available. It is basically drafted you
waivers don't have to exist anymore.
The question is whether people would stick around for grounds
20 through 30 But I also think there is something fun about
finding these guys who are emerging and you get you know
you can watch the games, get more information in you're still
competing against your opponents as the season is actually going
on like the idea of waivers in some form.
I think is really good like I don't I like this more than best
ball even though it's at times, I wish I'd just drafted best
ball teams but like, ultimately, I like this style more than Then
a really deep best ball format but the same time like its such
a grind at times. No, it is but it shows you
because look cocktails and dreams is, you know, he's on the
top of every single board. You'll see and that's because he
grinds waivers. I mean, it's his full-time job.
He doesn't have a job. This is his job and that's the
only way you can actually do. It is to make it your job.
And that's why I, you know, I basically hired a guy Do it
because it is cool and got out to Timo, he's doing a great job,
he is doing a great job and you know it just shows you because
it's like when we did the deal, Ernest Johnson the week before
you know for a dollar and then we got like 13 of them and then
we play them and it just the amount of money you save for
that dollar. You know, you basically made
like Like three thousand dollars in Fab and it's true because if
I'm not team, that's why I'm right now, cashing roughly 75%
of my leeks. And I have 100.
So, you know, obviously my draft is good, but it again, it's 50%
draft, it's 50% waivers. Don't let anyone in the tell you
otherwise, that, that it's not because just look at our team.
I mean if we go to our draft, how many players are still left?
From our draft, probably half and that's the way it usually
works. And, but just going back to your
point again on, you know, the 0r B.
It does make a lot of sense. And there you guys are righty,
but you don't have to force it and do the, you know, we got
lucky with, he'll Biggs, you know, times where, you know, if
like in the year before at, you know, He fell to us because
donkey boy took Julio Jones so that's when you gotta you gotta
pounce on that and then Eckler came into the second round and
we had to pounce on that even though we had some some juicy
you know, wide receivers there and then we just did it right?
We just went wide receiver wide receiver wide receiver wide
receiver and then we crank the purple at the end.
So and cranking purple at the end I mean this this year is a
perfect example. Why do it and Not reach for
those because Mark Andrews and Kelso really, you know, Waller's
been no good. So yeah.
Going that those tight ends early hasn't paid off for is if
you went late on tight ends and did the crank and purple, it
worked out. So it's still a mean, this
Dynamic, I think will play out, you know, like in the underdog
playoffs as well. We're you know, we're all
frustrated. Rated with Waller.
But like Waller could also still be the guy you need to take down
one of these tournaments. Oh, oh yeah.
And and that's what's cool. So, weird about this stuff, like
he could kind of kill you like eight weeks out of 12.
During the regular season, you sneak in and he fucking rips
off, three games of 25 plus points in like he's the dude
like that because that's what we're doing.
We don't know who these guys are, but we're basically just
trying to, like sneak in these Lee's League winners that are
actually the league winners because they're the To pop in
the playoffs. And then it's like, oh my God, I
had one of them. And then in retrospect, we're
going to be like, well obviously, you just should have
drafted Jamar Chase because he, you know, little points in the
playoffs, whatever it is Tyler. Higbee, two years ago was that
player right? You know, Tyler higbee literally
carried me to easily a couple championships and that was the
year that I finished. Third, and fourth in two leagues
and it was all due to higbee. And and that was a 18th week,
pick up. So yeah, those opportunities are
still there. So don't spend all your Fab
don't spend 995 on Elijah mishel because you basically just
killing yourself right there. I don't know.
Elijah Mitchell's bed, what are the best waiver wire pick up so
they are 935 would have been fine 995.
You can't die die. Die.
Here's a good question, it crack rock because I've already
started to get a little excited. I we fucking love the ffp.
Playoff Challenge around here. Do you play it?
I don't, but I'm going to this year, I'm going to this year.
Let's do one. It's I think do because it's
it's really, it's hard. It's confusing.
There's so much analytics when you only can draft one player
from. So it you know, I need the big
brains of you guys to help me on that because Bring it on.
Big ol. Gal.
This is why we like it so much because the Boomers say that
it's hard, it's confused. We did last week like, we made
it. We have a full programming week
now that we did last year and I can't wait to run it back.
Like I feel so bad about it multiple times during the season
that week is so funny. It's DFS for the whole playoffs.
Basically. Yeah.
That and that's why I'm trying to get more into DFS because I
actually played I played a few because these last week's,
there's like nothing going on. So I did, I'm starting to play a
little DFS and I want to get into more into the fs because I
really do DFS is funny shape. If us is so fun.
What do you think, Rach Rach? Tell me at what.
Contests are you playing? That's why I want a lot of
spaces with I guess. It was Ryan Hajj.
And Barrett, we're on. They're talking about it.
And And I was just trying to pick their brain because I still
don't understand this swapping out of the four o'clock.
I mean it's just like how the fucking love it, danger lot.
I mean, what I'm like what the fuck is going on?
Like that cheating, dude. It's like wait a second.
I put him on lineup and now I can swap on Monday Night
Football. If you could decide which one of
them, too, Put in from your light up, it's the same thing.
I know, I know it's missing its out, it just makes my inmates
just makes my head hurt too much.
It has. So that's why, that's why I tell
me your light up from this past week.
What did you roll out? I rolled out.
Let me see. I went on FanDuel.
Is it written down? It's not that.
I don't even the ones. No, I went with went too much.
James Conner was in everywhere and he just basically, you know,
that that was not that was not the right call but I do like DFS
because it was like you got to find that that that diamond in
the rough that, you know, is going to bust out that's nice
and cheap and I love looking for that.
And is so easy, you know, as you said with the chalk and taking
those guys. But when I see some of the
Millie Winners. I'm like, damn, I could put that
fucking line up together, you know.
I know it's easier said than done, but it is.
It is, it is friggin exciting. I want to get more into it.
And Let's do, let's I will pay for at least 2 FF PC playoffs.
For all of us to do you. Give you full?
I'm excited, I'm excited. Yeah, and, you know, each, Sent
each as my treat. I'm trying, I'm trying to get I
was going to say when Pete brought it up, I'm hoping to get
some big winnings from these other ffp contest, like purely
just to roll back into the playoff, the plastic, we gotta
get a lot of teeth. That's like the secret of why we
do. The main event is just to build
our bankroll for the playoffs. You don't get paid before that.
You don't, you don't get You don't get that money into your
account before those clouds. Yeah.
We did last year. Yeah.
Oh, you did, yeah. I think we did what we did
because yeah, we were we were fired pretty much tired.
You're right. Because you have that extra
week. Alright.
Feeling, and yeah, yeah, yeah, no, I take that back because it
is the extra week. You're right.
Yeah, but that playoff challenge is, is fun.
Because I remember I was in a league with Austin Martin and he
won the 500 K. We got into big Feud again with
fucking Hubbard but that was two years ago and he put his the
game theory behind it. Though is so intense and I want
it I want to you know pick your brains for that more.
So let's do a couple. So yeah that is basically if you
seen that that Meme of Charlie Day, They from, It's Always
Sunny. Where's got, although I thought
you're doing the number one, he's got all the lifelines and
everything, he's like, they have exactly about my stuff is gonna
play last year. If the Rams upset the Seahawks,
then cam Akers was going to get the Packers brush T.
So Pat was super on to get makers what.
Yeah, exactly what happened. It was huge for.
So yeah, I'm good at predicting who's going to get there?
I mean, the teams that are going to get there, the I'm bad.
I'm picking the players on those particular teams.
That's what sounds like a match made in heaven because you got
it. You got to pick the right teams
to advance its the first thing. You got to get the teams that
are actually going to make it that's like probably 75% of it.
Well that's why I want to I want to combine again because we have
that that Boomer. You know, we mesh well because
you know I kind of take you off your game you know, when we get
our draft a couple times, but you like it because like I can't
do the same thing every time. Yeah, absolutely.
That's great. Yeah.
And We get but like, you know, Boomer Merlin and it turns out
to like this smooth cocktail cross-generational.
So, I think last year we did, we did three shows during ffp.
See playoff? We can.
I looked it up. So we had our wrote of his
Brethren on and we did the, we revealed the Boomer opt or
sorry. No, the first thing we did was a
first-look show with Davis and we looked at, you know, snap
takes, then on Wednesday, we did the Boomer opto reveal with
Assad and Blair Witch. What was going to be the most
common lineups by the Boomer, populous on FPC?
And then Friday, we did the final kind of wrap with Dink and
Leone. So I think we build in an extra
night. I think we go four nights.
I mean, here's the best part, you get done week 17 this year
and then you have a week off. That's right.
Yeah. Then it's FEC, playoff weekend.
And then we get a with us. Oh yeah, we go, five nights,
love it, love it, all the wall coverage, ffp simple, absolute
Free Ride for all you guys No Deal.
Unless you're tossing in espressos Blunts and ipas this
way, it's a tradition from my from the dispensary.
Well, you know, We can do is next summer.
We can we can are being bid up in the Berkshires and draft a
war, you know, go on the porch. Like you know, you guys were
doing a Nantucket with Denny and throw that that disc around and
said that even patch that frees me up in the Berkshires and we
can physically stop you from your rubber.
What's pick this year? We could actually get actually
stopped to get a hold you back, right?
