From the episode

Jacoby Brissett. I have him four spots ahead of consensus this week. The Giants have a bottom two pressure rate this season. They're top ten for quarterbacks by adjusted points allowed. They're sixth in fantasy points per drop back allowed. Arizona's implied total is 23.5 points. I wouldn't be shocked if Jacoby Brissett ends up as a QB one this week.
