Speaker 1 (00:13):
Yo, what's happening to everybody?
Speaker 2 (00:16):
We're back with another episode of Too Much Fantasy Football.
It's Brian, It's Brennan. Week ten's coming to a close.
How are you doing today?
Speaker 3 (00:25):
Doing better than Brian Dable?
Speaker 1 (00:27):
Oh? Yeah, I hear he got a gift.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Somebody said that they gave him an axe?
Speaker 3 (00:34):
Yeah, very much so?
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Is that how that works? Brian Dable coming out early
Black Monday? For him, it's uh, ten weeks is all
he made it. But when you knock out each and
every one of your players, it's uh. I mean Jackson
Dart five times he's been evaluated for concussion this year?
Speaker 3 (00:54):
How many times?
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Five he's including preseason, He's been evaluated for five different concussions.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
I'll say this, I think Jackson Dart has the ego
of I'm gonna run you over, because I've seen the
interviews with him, like the Gruden interview kind of very
much like said like he has that like ego, just
like I'm gonna run you over and do your best,
like these guys are bigger, Like you just can't do that.
This is an old miss anymore. So, I do think
he needs to learn to like slide and it's okay
(01:23):
to slide, especially in.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
The rookie years. Look, you made your impression.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
You're cool.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
We got it, you know, the whole Anakin things trending
with all the young kids.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
They love it, they're eating it up.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
But dude, you gotta make it the next season where
all your weapons are gonna be because like, it's it's
just him out there.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
I wonder who I think they're gonna go for a
defensive minded coach boring, I know, I just can't. I
just think they're gonna go defensive mind because they have
so much money and equity in that defense where like
and it's been one of the worst too.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
On top of that, more of a reason to bring
in an offensive guy. You got the talent, so you
can have any Joshmo be the DC. You know, you
don't have to be very talented to pull it off.
Aaron Glenn might be available next year. He might not
want to move. You know, his kids just got established
at school head next door.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Come be the Giants exactly.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Goodness, Yeah, a lot of fun happening there in uh
in Detroit. I guess there wasn't a home game for him,
but they absolutely walloped that other team, like came out
and show, I mean Dan Campbell as the new spreading
he is calling the plays this past game. Play action
bumped up and oh my gosh, suddenly Jameson Williams is involved.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
I didn't know that he wasn't like I knew he
like gave it to somebody else and then like he
decided to call the plays and just like Jamior Gibbs
touches go up, all the playmakers just go up. Like
you know, Jamior Gibbs touched the ball twelve times last
week against the Vikings.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Maybe maybe that contributes to the loss there, the lack
of offensive power.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Yeah, I could see Dan call getting pretty pissed off,
not seeing like the best guys out there.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Yeah, I agree, speaking of the best guys coming out there,
are we gonna have a quarterback dispute here when it's
Jovi Joe Burrow back at practice projected like week thirteen
is what we're looking at.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
I didn't see this happening this quickly.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
Honestly, Like this sounds and this might sound dumb, but
I think this affects Jamar Chase because like I don't
see I don't see Jamar Chase's pace like keeping up
when Joe comes back, Like there's just Joe Flacco has
just been like literally honing in on Jamar Chase, and
I just are you a little nervous for him to
(03:38):
come back. I know it's Joe Burrow and like those
guys are best friends and everything else like that, but
like it's been kind of nice of Joe Flacco.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
It has been.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
I don't think so, because honestly, the defense isn't getting
any better, so like the situation is still gonna be
the same.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Maybe he's just.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
More efficient, Maybe the the yards are bumped up a
bit more and it's it's less perception. So PPR leagues,
maybe you're seeing a slight dip. But I mean t
Higgins he had an ad blow up game this past
week or I guess you know, they didn't play this
week because it was a bye, but the week prior
in Chicago, he was the one that absolutely destroyed.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
So I think that I don't know, it's Joe Burrow.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Yeah it is, and you know credits all the people
who held on to him put him in their IR
stash and I was just like, oh, you should probably
cut them, Like, hey man, I guess it's uh, you know,
good call for you to hold on to him. I
definitely I didn't draft him any of my leagues, so
I wouldn't have done that. But it's just like I mean,
Kriste for holding onto him.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
My dynasty needs some bad bad Speaking of bad rookie
sensation tightened, Rondez Gaedston almost forgot his name for him
a second a quad injury. It looked like it was
a knee on knee collision that he had in that game.
Day to day is what he's looking.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
At, though.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
I again, this is more so just like wait to
see what the practice reports hold on to. I think
you and I have both into the assumption that like
he's either the first or second reading this offense. So
it would suck because he's just been a great waiver
wire pick up for you. I'm not gonna go pick up.
We'll disleeve. He misses the next game, I'm not gonna
it's this might help out like QJ and Keenan if
(05:09):
he misses than anything, and.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
If maybe even more volume for lad Mconkey two because
it was him and uh Aronde there underneath.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
This quick passes for him.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Speaking of that game, Aaron Rodgers completely just ten of
twenty three passes for ninety six yards in this game.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
This was a not a.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Great game, not compared to some of the big blow
up games we had in the middle window.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
And it was crazy because it's it was essentially another
home game for them, Like I'm sorry to the Chargers
fans like and Chargers fans that acknowledge this, like Steelers
fans travel well, forty nine er fire, forty nine Ers
fans travel well, like it's just it's just what it is,
what it is. And they they crapped on their leg
that entire game, like I don't like their first their
first like three drives were like three and out. It
(05:56):
was like field goal safety interception. It was just like
what are you doing out there?
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Not a fun game to watch.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
I opted into watching it this morning instead of staying up.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
After the muff punt in the fourth quarter, like mid four,
I was like, I'm done with this. There's just no
nothing to watch from here.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Not a great game, Not a great game. Speaking of
a not great Garrett Wilson questionable Week eleven. I mean, honestly,
he can't do much worse than he did this week
in Week eleven, so maybe it's actually better because you know,
at least he's not putting a goosetig on your roster.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
Yeah, Aaron, when you're when they say like, I'm just
not sure if he's gonna play, Like I'm under the
assumption he's not gonna play. It's Thursday. He left the game,
he got like what three targets and left the game.
It just he didn't look healthy out there. Granted's the
Browns defense, so it's a great It's just can the
(06:53):
Jets win on Thursday night against the Patriots and a
unexpected game? It gets what I'm thinking in my head,
I'm like, how can I spend this? Like I can't?
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
With I mean, yeah, you lost all your players. It's
the Browns anything as possible. But like the Patriots look
they look good. They they were underdogs coming into Tampa
Bay this week.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
And they showed out. I mean, did you we have
Hunter Henry? That one was a bust unfortunately for me.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
As far as wide receivers, we had Kyle Williams at
wide receiver nineteen, Mac collins is wide receiver twenty and
Stefan Diggs's wide receiver twenty one. Oh and don't forget
Travon Henderson coming in RB four, there's the performance.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
We were looking for everybody.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
And he's gonna take over on There'sday. He's gonna be
on the bench when Romandre comes back.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Yep, limited role coming to him. This is Yeah, I know,
I honestly feel like Vrabel was upset, Like, yeah, I
feel like I kind of gave the ball a little
too much to Henderson in this.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
One, just like god, come on, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
That was the I mean, the final touchdown, the lookover
the bend, do I score?
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Do I lay down?
Speaker 2 (08:01):
It was pretty funny. But like again, come on, the
heads up ability for that it was great.
Speaker 3 (08:08):
Yeah, I mean it is great. And I guess there
were the bucks were chirping at Henderson that he couldn't
that he couldn't finish, that he basically was just like
he was too small. And then it happens. And I
will say from us hearing Henderson speak at the combine,
he seems like a very humbled person. So I was
very curious to see how he reacted towards that. I
(08:28):
only saw the highlights of it.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
So yeah, fourteen rushes, one hundred and forty seven yards
to touchdowns.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
Pretty good, Pretty good.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Pretty good.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
We got a lineman out, powers out for the season.
How much does this affect.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
This affects Gent more than people want to realize, Like,
you know, I know he was what I think he
was like twenty for sixty against the Broncos in a touchdown.
When you lose an offensive lineman that it doesn't improve
the run game, It only hurts him. And this has
been a lackluster run game as it is. So you're
still gonna start Gent, but again, like just know that
(09:06):
the expectations could be even lower for Gent.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
Yeah he comes in.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
I mean, we're recording this before the Monday night game,
so we have to take that out.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
But as of now, he is RB fourteen on the week.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Probably at least one of those two are going to
be above them. Yeah, so I think that's about where
you're gonna see him, like more of like a middling
RB two with great upside, amazing talent, But the team's
gonna hold him back like they're holding onto each leg,
like they're just holding as much as they can to
keep him from blossoming.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
I mean, maybe we'll see that Jacobi Myers was the
problem after all. I don't know, Like I just again,
when you play the Broncos, I expect everyone to kind
of have bad numbers. Who do they play next week?
Does it get better or worse?
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Oh? Boy? I mean come on, it always gets worse, right, Yeah? No,
the Broncos play next.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
No, the Raiders. The Broncos are gonna buye the Chiefs Chiefs,
the Broncos are the Raiders.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Sorry, oh sorry, sorry, we're talking about the Raiders. Yeah, Raiders. No,
they play Monday Night against Cowboys.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
Oh, one of the worst defenses. And let's see if
JENTI can actually run against them.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
You kinda have to feel safe about that. One can
get much.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
Better than that.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Uh, I forgot my transition. We're going to concussion.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
C J.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Stroud the Houston Jags.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
I don't remember, folks. It was gonna be great, It
was gonna be smooth. It all connected like Lincoln logs
just stacking up. But it's it's fine. We're talking about
Houston and the Jags.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Uh. CJ. Stroud as of now, is still in concussion protocol.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Hopefully we get to see him in the red jersey
or the whatever jersey, and uh, you know, are.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
You sure about that? Because like Davis Mills looked really
good as the starting quarterback.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Did he or was the Jacks? He was falling apart?
Speaker 3 (10:58):
Wasn't he QB one?
Speaker 2 (11:01):
He is QB one on the week? Two hundred and
ninety two passing yards, two passing touchdowns. And don't forget
that rushing touch rushing I mean he really rushed that much.
His neck just extended all the way to the end.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
But like he hit the pylon.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
Yeah, I Nico looked good and all, like all the
rookies look good. Like. That's a tough pill to look at,
just because the Jags actually do have a decent defense.
And then he comes and does that and Stroud hasn't
even had a game even close to that this year.
(11:37):
It's so bad.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
I believe Schultz was. I mean he was one of
the top tight ends we had this week.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
Mm hmmm.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
Nico Collins up there at the top at number five?
What he marks?
Speaker 2 (11:48):
I mean, what are you getting down there? Like he
hit Rarby nine on the week he should have had
two touchdowns.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
The ball was moving with David Davis Mills and it
was not moving with Stroud this entire season.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Oh boy, as a Colts fan, I love it.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Bring the chaos, non fantasy aside, and just like Colts,
this is just hilarious because like I think you and
I both know Stroud is like a quarterback and I
just don't know what's going on there.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Yeah, yeah, I don't know. I love it. I love it. Uh.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Speaking of the Jags, though, Parker Washington absolutely blew up
got a special team's touchdown as well, So make sure
that has turned on in your leagues because changes his
value drastically. But I'm excited. I'm excited for him to
be pulled into this, this higher role. Chakobe Myers, of
course we're gonna see more of him and Briton Strange
coming off.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
I are.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
Yeah, But the problem is Trever Lawrence is playing quarterbacks still.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
I thought they fixed that, That's right?
Speaker 3 (12:45):
Yeah? Where you like, so, like, can we are we
gonna make an official decision on Tiver Lawrence right now?
Like where are we at with them? Is it? Just
like because from my understanding and I was just like,
you know, doom scrolling and just kind of listening to
Jags fans like they just like the common theme is
that it's two more years before they can get out
of this contract, is what it sounds like, that's like,
(13:07):
whoaff when you hear that, it's.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Gonna be liams Cohen, like Giam Cohen his job, Like
he's gonna be tied to Trevor Lawrence the whole time,
you know, I mean, if you can make it to
your four then maybe, but.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
I don't know, I don't know. Can any work a
miracle here?
Speaker 3 (13:25):
That's a tough miracle.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
It's thirteen for twenty three, one hundred and fifty eight yards,
one touchdown, one interception, rush for thirty five. Granted it
is Houston number one against quarterbacks.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
You had it. You had a twenty point lead in
the fourth quarter, and you gained two total yards of
offense in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
They're great at the very beginning, they're scripted, place them
in the culture right up there. But after we get
through it, it it changes drastically for the Jazz. Yes,
it's I mean only two James has he thrown multiple touchdowns?
Speaker 3 (14:03):
Like that's crazy, that's bad.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Very bad.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Trevor, speaking of bad, Belton Cage hamstring pull it pretty
quickly in that game.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
It was unfortunate for.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Really cool to have my draft kings lineup and just
watch them all just just go away. Really quickly. Yeah
you can. I mean, if once he gets labeled out,
you can just put them on the I R. If
you want to cut him. I'm okay with that, just
because Hammi's are tough and it's you're now entering week eleven.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
Unfortunately for the Bills, that was the final piece they
would have had that game, They would have won it
if not for that.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
No, not a chance. Look, we teased it.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Out last week talkingout was like, is there a chance?
Should we be looking at this as a little trap
or nope? Nope, nope, Look at that.
Speaker 3 (14:55):
Are the Bills? Are the Bills in trouble? He looked bad,
like and like they had every chance to come back
in that game. James Cook fumbles, Josh Allen fumbles. Like
it was just a weird game to watch it.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
You know, if anybody were to call a game rigged,
I could see people calling it on that because sometimes
it was.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Hard to blow genuinely, like, I'm not saying it was
at all.
Speaker 3 (15:23):
Yeah, no, I'm not having a ten foil hat on them.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Yeah, I've loved my hat, but I'm not pulling over
for this one.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
One hund Like, I was just like watch because I
was playing against Josh Allen, and I'm like already locked
it in my head.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
I'm like, I'm gonna lose this week. I'm gonna lose.
And I'm like, oh my god.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
Granted he finishes with twenty points on the week, three
hundred yards passing two touchdowns.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
Yeah, but still he's one of his worst games. And
it's where is he out on the qbise He's QB
what he's still QB like top twelve? Right?
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Oh, yeah, he's definitely top twelve. He is up number
eight with that, I mean.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
And with two other quarterbacks too, And yeah, that's crazy.
One of his worst games and he's still QB eight
for you, like tried and true. This is why everyone
takes him as the quarterback won.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
He threw three hundred yards and nearly none of his
like his wide receivers were almost irrelevant. Kelan Coleman had
forty six yards in a touchdown, so not bad.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
He didn't kill you.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
But like Shakir fifty eight yards, Shavers he had twenty
four yards, Curtis Samuel twenty one yards. It just like
all the tight ends thirty seven, thirty seven to twenty six.
What is with this AFC et spread the ball around
except for Tua.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
Except for Tua. Oh buddy, oh Jalen Wattle eighty four
yards in a touchdown.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
You know.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
And it was weird because I guess the Bills were
in on Waddle like they were trying to trade for him,
which like wouldn't help that roster out completely.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
And it's wild.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
I said the report was a twenty seven first and
they just wouldn't give up a twenty six first within
the deal.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
They wanted two first or just one first.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Sorry, I think it was just one with some pieces, but.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
The Dolphins wanted a twenty six first and they were
only willing to offer when he's seven first in the package.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
And I'm like, it's Jid Wadley.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
Is your season? Like I do not get it. Like
the Patriots are literally moving forward, You're falling behind every
step of the way. You should have looked at their
schedule and been like, are we comfortable with being a
wild card team? Because that's what we're gonna end.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Up finally, Like the playoffs are not gonna go through
Kansas City. This was the opportunity for the Bills and
they squandered it.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Absolutely. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
Hn we heard also was on this trade block, not
on the trade block, but being called about during the
trade deadline. Twenty two carries, one hundred and seventy four yards,
two touchdowns, six sketches for fifty one yards.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
Wooh, that's a day.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
He would have been the he would have been like
the most talked up guy. And let you know what's
another guy was a named Jonathan Taylor. But still very impressive,
say to say the least.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
And at this point, is it really that impressive by
Jonathan Taylor. He's now had five games where he scored
three touch rushing touchdowns.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
It's like, eh, whatever, it's in the news.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
It happened like half of his games this season, he
has scored three rushing touchdowns two hundred and forty four
on the ground.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
He's flirting with the LT record. That's why I think
it's continued to be talked about. It's like he needs,
he needs. I don't know with the rushing record. I
know he's over a thousand yards.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
He's a bit under where he needs to. But like
you have a few of these two hundred and forty
four yard rushing games, you're absolutely gonna be in that conversation.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
I know the LT touchdown records like he can sniffe it.
He needs to average like two touchdowns a game, which
is like when you hear that, it's like that's just stupid,
But like for him, it's just been a common theme
for him.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
So yeah, if he has.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Another three a couple more of these three touchdown games, yeah,
it's I don't know how he had this good of
a game, Like Golts, we're sweating sweat and getting that
win there in overtime. Also Drake London in that game,
like wide receiver one as of now one hundred yards great,
a little overwhelming on the the wide receivers this week
he's twenty one points half VPR points and he's wide
(18:59):
receiver one before the Monday night game one hundred yards touchdown.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
So no bad. Getting a little bit off track here,
but it is. I mean, in regards to fantasy, it's
a team that the Falcons traded with to get a
defensive player. You know, I was going through this, like
the Giants traded like a couple seconds to get Jackson Dart.
The Falcons the next pick, traded their future first for
this defensive player, which is now a top ten pick,
(19:25):
and it's going to the Rams.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
Now granted that the second round pick that the Giants
traded was that that year's second round pick, So I
think it was only like ten or twelve spots back. Yes,
they weren't moving a whole lot versus you know, they
were losing this pick out right from the rank.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
But first is so valuable.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Yeah, no, no, I don't.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
I mean Jaguars might be in that point too, they
traded away their first. Cleveland sitting there hoping that that
team continues to play. Trevor Lawrence ask.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
Yeah, they're in trouble, and I'm kind of out on
Raheem Morris. I'm kind of out on Robinson being the
offensive coordinator. I think I just some guys just aren't
meant to be head coaches and are just meant to
be play callers for just their side they're really good at.
Because it was really weird, like this team can run
(20:19):
the football and they just decide to, Hey, let's have
Panix throw the ball as much as possible, and he's
not that accurate.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Yeah, have they had him try throwing it with his
right hand? I wonder if they have more success?
Speaker 3 (20:33):
Hey, us lefties, all right, it's not it's it's don't
slander lefties.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
Okay, there's nothing wrong with that.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
I just think that it's can they mirror the image
for me on when I'm watching football?
Speaker 3 (20:44):
So like, I don't care why people are so I
don't ever really pay attention to that. It does not
bother me, and everyone else just gets like creeped out.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
It's just if it feels like you're watching and you're like, oh,
look at that was a good throw, but like something
feels off.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
What's it's Oh, it's coming out of his left hand.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Michael Vick for some reason, I loved what Like I
watched him all through tech like through his career. I
loved watching him play. I don't know why it doesn't
feel left handed to.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
Him because it's a bad quarterback. It's been to now
and it's this guy, and now it's Michael Pennock. So
it's just bad quarterback play. Had they been really good,
they you wouldn't even hear real. Is Dylan Gabriel left handed?
I keep I forget?
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Is he yeah? Because he played against Uh.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
He's just a worst to I forget. He's just a
worst to.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
A oh man?
Speaker 2 (21:29):
Uh yeah, looking right now, Falcons are the thirteen seed
in the NFC right now for the playoffs, We've got
a seven percent chance according to the NFL, and I imagine.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
That that was a nail on the coffin.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
I think that's because the Buccaneers technically could collapse. They're
six and three, the Falcons are three and six, so they're.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
The Bucks should be eight and nine and still get
getting the playoffs and have the four seeds just because
that division is so bad.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
Oh yeah, it's the other bottom teams, Falcon Saints.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
They're speaking on that division though. I think Bryce Young
is done. I think it's just that's it. Like you
had every chance to win that game and you got
out dueled by Tyler Shuck.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
His quarterback class is not looking to be as exciting
as we thought though originally, so like, wow, and does
Bryce Young just walk away and go do a Baker Mayfield,
you know, like it's I.
Speaker 3 (22:20):
Don't think so, because I actually like Dave Canal's he
like clearly he can make the ball move on the
ground with running it. I just I think they're frustrated
with him. And you know it was I forgot what
it was. It was Nick Saban and a dinner with
with the David Tepper and it was how he ordered
his steak or some shit like that is what was
(22:41):
like the final straw for a draft in one overall.
I don't know if you heard that story, but it
was just like you gotta be kidding me. Go back
and read it. It was something about how he ordered his
food at some dinner with Nick Saban And I don't
know if it was a joke, but like the joke
did not hit.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
Yeah, that's weird. Oh Bryce, did he ask for it?
Speaker 3 (22:59):
Like up, Yes, we're it with ketchup like Patrick Holmes.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
That's funny. What else do we have?
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Speaking of the Bucks, you know, Bucky Irving, Chris Gonwin
still no timeline.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
Uh yeah, direct quote from Bulls was for Bucky was
that he needs to be able to take hits on
his shoulder, and he's not there yet, so I'm thinking
he's like he's weeks away. Did they put Bucky and
I R by the way? I don't think they did,
did they?
Speaker 1 (23:34):
No? They didn't. Yeah, so they lost that battle.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
Yeah, that that's a fun battle to have for a
lot of owners. They know some leagues only have ir
only so that's I'm sure they're just punching here, right, now.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
Do we even talk.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
About Deshaun Watson and him coming into.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
You kind of have to, like because he's two hundred
and sixty, like something's going on.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Why aren't we seeing.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
Like I don't know, I genuinely like I don't want
to like speculate on things. That's not the right thing
to do because he's been injured. I know he's injured.
I do actually hold on, I do know he is injured.
He is he has like a back or shoulder injury
or something like that. But he he needs to like
get healthy somehow because like he is squandering a chance
(24:32):
to like start a game because Dylan Gabriel isn't.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
It no, no, this whole Oh yeah, he looks great
at the combine.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
You know, we like to went our third bull bullshit.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
We were laughing at the quarterbacks that were throwing into
the combine, like it wasn't great out there.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
I don't get why teams hold onto bad quarterbacks for
so long because like.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
Baker Mayfield, I guess, or it's Sam.
Speaker 3 (24:56):
It's like even like the Davis Mills thing, like like
Davis Mills was not good and like I don't even
know if I view him as a backup quarterback. But
he still has a job, Like I would just like
keep keep taking chances on like fifth round guys that
are just from these random schools. Is he still in
the league.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Yeah, he's still he's the backup for Baker. Like he's
still with the Bucks. His contract.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
Yeah, last year, year before and the same thing. I
saw him come out there. I'm like, really, I didn't
know he was still like I don't know, like luka.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Yeah, they take shots to quarterbacks, trying to acquire as
many as they can, even if they don't want him
as a starter.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
I've told everybody my tenfoil Hot conspiracy is that ten
Ricky is a better passing quarterback on that team, not
better quarterback. I'm just saying passing quarterback. He will have
a job. He will have a job in a couple
of years, starting somewhere. I don't know how we'll go,
but I know he'll get a job somewhere.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
I think next off season he's a free agent. Yeah yeah,
Looking at.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
The free agent class for quarterbacks, it's not great.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Trey Lance. Lance will be available. Can you pick it?
Speaker 2 (25:58):
Joe Flacco, Tyrod, Marcus Marioti, Aaron Rodgers, Daniel Jones, It's
it's not pretty. So like, do you like, would Kyler
go to Arizona or not.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Like when he stayed.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
No, Like do you think like Carolina would be a
spot if they moved on from Bryce Young or just
swap them.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
I think it's just depending on that money of the contract,
like how much dead cap he is for them, like,
because I know that plays a huge effect on it.
I'm trying to think Wherekyler can go, and I think
Kyler would actually do well there.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Well, it still has the height problem though, Like I
guess I'm sitting there thinking about that.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
Mare he's taller than Bryce Yoh that I can.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Say an inch, it's like five ten to five eleven, hey,
both of them.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
Yes, I agree, But yeah, I think Kyler can go
to Carolina. That make actually a lot of sense. I'm
trying to think of another team where he can go
that would like.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Him and would be fun.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Yeah. I think so too, because they're not. I don't
think the Saints are like a bad team, Like I
just don't. I don't look at the teams like, oh
they're awful. Yeah, it's just you put the pieces together.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Yeah, But like Kellen Moore is definitely coaching them up.
I can't believe, can't believe we Like we messaged like
halfway through that game, like, well, Carolina, that was a
miss this week.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
So glad you picked him as your eliminate or not mine.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
That's okay. I already lost them a long ago.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
I know.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
It's one of those like we sit here and talk
about divisional games and how some of these can just
be gotcha games, but for whatever reason, it should have
been pinging because it wasn't pinging. What'soever? Like usually we'll
go through some of these episodes and we'll talk hard
about something. I'm like, Nope, I'm gonna fade it. I'm
gonna fade it, you know a little bit, just because
I think I'm too into it, so you know, put
a little put a little sprinkle on a bed On
(27:47):
the other side, No, I was confident on this one.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
I'm gonna call my shot right now. But I think
the Seahawks are in the NFC Championship game at the
bare minimum. Dude, they at the bare minimum, ass like.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
Two defensive touchdowns?
Speaker 3 (28:04):
Are you kidding me? You know, Like I try to
come up with an analogy, but like, have you been
in like a like a a tide wave of like
in the ocean, just getting your ass kicked by wave
after wave or to wave and he can't get out
of it. That's a Seahawks defense. I feel like they
just you finally get a breath of air and you
already look around, it's already twenty eight to nothing.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
My wife was, she was putting up the Christmas stuff
and like she turned around and looked, she goes, wait,
I thought this game just started. I'm like, yeah, it's
this first quarter. Like it was so bad defenses. Number
one defense on the week was Seattle at twenty three points.
And guess who to number two, the freaking Jets. Everybody's saying, hey,
we're gonna hammer hard the Cleveland's defense this week.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
The Jets just you no, no, it was bad.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
It was very bad.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
What else do we have Terry out for week eleven?
Speaker 3 (28:57):
Shocker, he'll be on the medical bus lists at the
end of the year for sure.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
Jade and Jaden's probably gonna be out for week eleven two.
I'd imagine, yeah, he's out, don't don't rush him back.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
And then when we have Dan Quinn going to calling
defensive plays, there for the commanders.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
That actually could help out the defense a little bit.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
I don't really like that though, you know, I like
them scoring points on the commanders. Marshall Latimar, let up
all the big plays, buddy, and then finally.
Speaker 3 (29:27):
Well he's out for the year. I think, oh, that's right,
that's right. I think he towards a c L.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
His play was so bad it just went down there
and affected his knee.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
No come back. Well, I think he might be done.
He might be done.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Probably, uh and then done.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Speaking of done, like the usage man, he.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
Had like eighteen percent of the carries and then Chris
Rodriguez had like almost seventy percent of the carries. So
and I don't see that change. He just doesn't look good.
I don't. I don't get it.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
He's a seventh round pick like this.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
I know we get the fun Pa Checko stories and
stuff like that from time to time, but like the emotion,
the emotion of fantasy football gets is too excited for
this stuff.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
He'll have relevant games, but if they're in a bad
script like this one forty two, he's not gonna be involved.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
Yeah, and he's not a like receiving. It's not a specialty.
It seems like so I think we'll be talking about,
you know, when it comes to the rookies coming in
the running backs, Like the Chiefs will get one. I
think the Commanders will probably get one. Even though they
had Brian Robinson the beginning of the year. Still blows
my mind to this day. Trading away for a six
round pick.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
They should get brief They should get Bries. They've got
the money since Jade's on the rookie contract.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
Yeah, I think they need to invest that money into
the defense.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
I had to guess for sure. Yeah, but we'll go
and defense.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
Wow, we're so nice, like the teams we send over
for these international games, like Commanders Dolphins going to Spain.
Speaker 1 (31:02):
No Jayden Daniels.
Speaker 3 (31:04):
Hey, I expect Jayalen Wadell to do some waddle dances
in the end. Okay, and Devon a Chan to have fun.
I actualct the Dolphins have a great offensive game.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
How crazy, Like they're three and seven, Like obviously you
know they're not playoff bound, but they can win a couple.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
More games this year.
Speaker 3 (31:20):
They could be six and eleven.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
McDonald might like.
Speaker 2 (31:24):
How funny too, Like they've won I guess they didn't
win against Baltimore. They almost They held in there a
little bit, but since they fired their GM, they look
pretty good.
Speaker 3 (31:34):
Look, yeah, Mac, do you know I keep his job.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
I don't hate that.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
I don't think he's the best head coach, but I
think he's just good enough where he might be able
to hit that threshold because he's so good at offense.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
Yeah, he's a great offensive mine. I think he knows
what he's doing when he when he can call the play,
he just needs the right gut to run the offense.
Speaker 2 (31:56):
He does not know what he's doing. If there's press
conferences though, the amount of times he.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
Said and the Capris need to go, I'm over it.
Don't want to see shins.
Speaker 2 (32:04):
Look, sometimes your pants are shrinking the dryer where sometimes
you're really really tall and pants just go down to
your ankles.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Okay, I don't know about that one. Well that's not
the case for him, though.
Speaker 3 (32:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:17):
Nice, What else you got.
Speaker 3 (32:20):
I've gotten nothing. I know this will probably be aired.
I think the Eagles win. They did win. That's where
I'm at.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
No comment. I'm tired of trying to guess.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
I've been burned by the Eagles. Before. I'm not gonna
get burned again, burned.
