0:00Today was maybe the craziest day of football we have had all year. Some of it in a good way like McMillan, some of
0:06it in a bad way. We'll talk about everything. First off, the Detroit Lions. What changed here? Nothing, right? Um before this game, what were
0:14the expectations with Detroit? You start Jir Gibbs every week as the best player in fantasy. You start Amanra St. Brown every week as a top five wide receiver.
0:24Jameson Williams and Sam Leaporta are probably both guys you need to have in your lineup. JMO's going to have his ups
0:30and downs. Leaporta as well, but this Detroit Lions defense is horrific. It's maybe one of the worst defenses in the NFL. So, what we're going to see is we
0:40are going to see a ton of Jared Goff dropbacks. We are going to see a ton of pass attempts. So, yeah, maybe it wasn't
0:46the best Jamir Gab Gibbs game in the world, but he had 15 carries and seven targets. He's still the best player in
0:52fantasy. At the very worst, you put him at number two. Um, going over to Aman Ross round. Yeah, he only scored 15 and
0:58a half points. He's still at 11 targets, right? Jameson Williams, sad, 100 receiving yards. Thank God finally I get some Jameson Williams points in, but
1:07yeah, I don't think anything changes here with Detroit. And I mean, we do get confirmation that again with how bad this Lions offense is, you probably want
1:17to stream your quarterbacks against them. I played Bryce Young this week against Detroit here. Honestly, it could have been a much bigger day for Young if
1:25we didn't have the Chuba Hubard rushing touchdowns. Bryce Young 41 pass attempts over 300 passing yards, multiple passing touchdowns. Chuba Hubard again until
1:33Jonathan Brooks comes in and maybe splits this backfield. Hubard is a locked and loaded starter where you don't think twice. He just has to be in
1:41your lineup. Very similar to how Gilen Warren is right now with no Rico Dol.
1:45These maybe aren't the sexiest players in the world, but when you're going to get 21 opportunities, you have to be played. And then going over to Tedaroa
1:54McMillan. Shout out the Roman Empire in the Flock League. Kicking everyone's asses. Dear God, my fantasy team is so much worse than his. It's not even
2:02really close. Trades for McMillan two weeks ago. Takes him off Avery's team.
2:08Says, "Thank you very much." Tedo McMillan, 16 targets, 14 receptions, 192 receiving yards, and multiple receiving touchdowns. As somebody who
2:19made 10,000 videos just going through and praising Tedro McMillan this off seasonason, obviously y'all know I love to see it. Y'all know I'm a massive
2:28fanboy. Now, let's be real here. Between you and me, this was the best matchup he's going to get. And you also had no
2:35Jaylen Coker in this game. So, McMillan, is he going to be this every single week? No, of course not. But he's going
2:44to be damn good. Again, going back to where we were at before this, this was a dominant wide receiver in college.
2:51Unbelievable levels of dominance. Then he goes to the NFL. He's a top 10 NFL draft pick. He has a good rookie season.
3:00That's the exact profile you want.
3:02That's exactly what turns in to a league top 10 wide receiver in year two. So, yeah, in future weeks, McMillan's going
3:10to be a little bit worse. Coker will steal more targets. And on top of this, it will be tougher matchups where Bryce
3:16Young's not going to have over 300 passing yards and two passing touchdowns every week. It doesn't matter. This dude's legit.
3:23Honestly, I'm going to update my rankings, get y'all the up-to-date rest of season rankings tomorrow morning.
3:30That video may drop at like 6:00 a.m.
3:33So, please, for the love of God, just make sure you are subscribed. But McMillan very easily is going to be a
3:39top 12 wide receiver.
3:42I think he will be. Now, let's go over and look at the game that happened very early this morning in Washington.
3:50Mariota goes down. So, we have a third string quarterback coming in in a Europe game. So, there's not much we can take
3:57away from this. Again, when Cooper Rush was the starter in Atlanta, we had Drake London as that boil low candidate because ultimately, you know, when it's
4:06a third string quarterback, expectations should be rock bottom. So, I don't want to hold anything against any player here for the Commanders. This was a garbage
4:16garbage game. Going over to what we had with the running backs, like e even with no Rashad White, Jakori Cross can't get
4:24there. Again, maybe it's a little bit better with Jaden Daniels, but we've seen Jaory Cross not be usable for a season and a half at this point. I don't
4:32think you start a single Washington Commander running back with the receivers. If you had no Terry Mclloren, Stefon Diggs had nine targets. He
4:40probably would have been a hell of a lot better if Marcus Mariota was still under center, but he does nothing. I don't
4:45think much changes here in Washington either, just because again, looking at the setup, it was a third string quarterback playing the vast majority of
4:53the game. What did you want? Now, in this game, I was live streaming this morning answering your fantasy football questions. We all watching it together,
5:00and my team is the worst fantasy football team that's ever been assembled. is the exact opposite of the Avengers.
5:07I have Jonathan Taylor, my only good player at this point with Jefferson injured, and I'm sitting here praying that the Colts look good. They move the
5:16ball down the field. I'm going to be honest, the Colts didn't look great on the offensive side of the ball through
5:21the vast majority of this. Now, of course, the second half things changed.
5:24They're going up against the third string starter. Daniel Jones looked bad.
5:29Obviously, you're not starting Daniel Jones in fantasy. Going over to JT, we did get a decent amount of Seth McGawan it felt like while we were watching it.
5:39But if you look at the overall volume, Jonathan Taylor still had 24 opportunities. He's still a locked and loaded top five running back. And then
5:47with the receiving options, the biggest surprise here is Josh DS, player that I wasn't a big fan of coming into the
5:54season, I was all in on this week because this was the best matchup possible. The Washington Commanders, their corners are horrific. They were
6:03allowing the most points to opposing wide receivers in the entire NFL coming into this week. The Colts projected to score 25 points. You had no Alec Pierce,
6:12no Keenan Allen. Josh DS had 11 targets last week. And what'd he do? Deadly squat. The man had four targets for
6:21three receptions, 16 receiving yards. So DS, honestly, we've seen this long enough now throughout his NFL career. I I don't know if we can ever say he's
6:31going to turn into an every week start.
6:33I think that we kind of know who he is.
6:35He's going to be a boom bust wide receiver three flex option. Now going over to the Arizona Cardinals. This was a very very weird setup. Jacobe
6:44Brassette obviously not the best game, but next week Brassette does get the Detroit Lions matchup. So there is a small possibility that Jacobe Brassette
6:55is going to be a streaming quarterback next week. Now, going over to the running backs again, this is very difficult to know because if you look at
7:05this video, it looked like Jeremiah Love had a pretty serious injury. Like hopping on one leg for about 20 steps.
7:13He couldn't have put any pressure on his right leg, but after the game, they don't tell us that he's injured. He goes
7:19through press conferences as if it's completely normal. But you did get a lot of Tyler Algier usage in the second half. So, I'm going to be very
7:28interested to see the practice reports with Love. If he's like practicing in full on Wednesday, then maybe hell, Tyler Algier is just
7:37going to continue to split this backfield. And Jeremiah Love having the 20 plus opportunities last week. It isn't turning him into an every week
7:45starter. And then with the receivers, Michael Wilson continues to just absolutely smash. Michael Wilson 13 targets here. Yeah, Marvin Harrison
7:55catches a touchdown. Marvin Harrison had four targets, one reception. Marv is still unusable. And Michael Wilson now through the first four weeks is
8:04averaging over 10 targets per game. He looks like he's a locked and loaded top 24 wide receiver that you start every
8:10single weeks and a potential league winner. And then with Trey McBride, McBride didn't have a great fantasy day, but he still had 12 targets, so he's
8:17going to be an elite tight end. Nothing is different there. Now going over to the Giants end, we had the vintage
8:25Jameus Winston experience back. Multiple interceptions, three passing touchdowns.
8:31This is exactly what you would have wanted to see with Neighbors. And I'll be honest, with Neighbors, that first quarter grab, I was watching Red Zone.
8:39Obviously, if you're watching Red Zone, you saw the same thing. He goes up, high points, the ball pretty high in the air.
8:44He falls on his shoulder, is in a ton of pain, has to go to the sidelines, is in a ton of pain just like he was when he
8:51injured this shoulder again two weeks ago. And I thought he was out. I was like, "Okay, well, they're they're keeping him out." He goes back in, has
8:59himself a phenomenal day. Now, Isaiah likely had 12 targets, but Neighbors still comes away with 112 receiving yards and the receiving touchdown. So,
9:09this is our first good Malik Neighbors game we've had since you had the Jackson Dart injury. And it looks like he has
9:15worked himself back to being an every week starter. Isaiah likely gets a touchdown stolen from him from Theo Johnson. But again, the underlying usage
9:23is Isaiah likely had 12 targets out of 29 Jameus Winston pass attempts. So, likely looks like somebody starting every week. Cam Scataboo didn't really
9:32score any fantasy points, but he still had 19 opportunities. Now, when they're at the goal line, Naji is coming in.
9:38Naji Harris did have a two-point conversion in this game. So, it's not like Scat is a full threeown bellcow that you jam regardless, but he is still
9:48looking pretty damn good. Now, going over to the Houston Texans with CJ Shroud. This was the other streaming option I was looking at playing instead
9:57of Bryce Young because the Texans projected a score like 26 total points this week. Now, looking at where we stand with Straoud into the future, he's
10:08not going to be exciting to play next week just because he had a good game this week. This was everything matchup
10:13focused. Dallas is a matchup you want to target. Detroit is a matchup that you want to target. Going to the running
10:20backs, David McGomery does get the 10 carries, 24 rushing yards. Woody Marks steals a rushing touchdown inside the 10 yardd line. Um, and Woody Marks had a
10:31considerable amount of snaps as well.
10:32So, at this point, like David McGomery, in a game in which the Texans drop 30 points, looks like he may not be startable. The
10:42dude doesn't have juice. He doesn't have the receiving role in which you are getting the um boost. He did have 19
10:50receiving yards off of zero receptions.
10:53Um, that's because we had that little weird hook and ladder play, I believe.
10:56Now, going over to Nico.
10:59is right back to being a top 12 wide receiver. Set it and forget it every week. This is a good match up for him. I
11:04don't expect to have 118 receiving yards, multiple receiving touchdowns every single week, but he's still going to be an absolute jam. And then maybe
11:11the craziest game that we had this week was from CD Lamb. So, the editors in the Flock League have a really bad team.
11:22They were 0 and3 coming into today, but they made some pretty big moves. They picked up Romeo Dobs for free. They
11:29picked up Emanuel Wilson for free. And then they had the CD Lamb blowup where CD Lamb had 21 targets, 17 receptions,
11:38almost 200 receiving yards, and the receiving touchdown. And they're going to end up most likely winning $5,000 because of it. Like, congrats to the
11:49editors of the Flock League. Incredible.
11:52Now, with Dak Prescott, nothing needs to be discussed. Javvante stole a ton of touchdowns in this game. Dak's still in every week's start. And Javvante's
11:59moving up my ranks. Does again Javvante look like the most dynamic and explosive running back in the league? Not exactly, but he was a monster in the red zone and
12:09he had five targets out of the backfield for 24 total opportunities. This is a good Dallas Cowboys offense. Javvant is going to get every high value touch. And
12:18then the one thing that I may need to just straight up re-evaluate and take an L on is I've been saying that George
12:24Pickkins is a quality by low candidate.
12:28Pickkins in this game has three targets in comparison to CD Lamb with 21, which is unbelievable. Now, obviously, it's not going to be broken down this way
12:37every game, but an interesting note that we have is every target that got thrown to George
12:45Pickkins, a defender was on top of him.
12:49Of course, highlight grabs. We know George Pickkins is one of the best wide receivers winning at the catch point in the NFL. He's just not generating
12:57separation, which is a pretty big concern here. Now going to the Tampa Bay Green Bay game.
13:07Um, this was this is horrific. I'm falling to one and three in the Flock League. Again, I only have myself to
13:14blame. I made horrible horrible trades and I'm an absolute idiot for doing it.
13:21But this game didn't help. I had Christian Watson and Ibuka going.
13:26Christian Watson gets the 47 receiving yards, but damn, I was looking at zero in that lineup for a long time today.
13:34It was horrible. And now we see what the passing what Christian Watson, what Matthew Golden are going to look like and a setup in which the Green Bay
13:44Packers can run the ball, right? The Packers are actually able to win this game. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers look like they now have the worst offense in the
13:52NFL. So, they ran it over and over and over again. Um, Caleb Johnson lost the fumble inside the red zone, so I don't
13:59know if they're going to be looking his direction very often. All these running backs are still very bad. But when Jordan Love doesn't have to drop back to
14:05pass 40 plus times, Christian Watson may not be that good.
14:10Matthew Golden may not be that good. And then obviously Tucker Craft, he had the seven targets, the 16 total fantasy points, but it could have been even
14:19bigger. He like dropped a touchdown in the red zone if I'm remembering correctly. Um, so yeah, Craft looks like he's working himself back from this ACL
14:28nicely. And for Christian Watson as well as Matthew Golden, I think we need more games where they are just going to have
14:35to throw the ball more. Now Tampa, we put up the big red alarm signals, right?
14:43Just to make sure everybody was on the same page. You probably knew it. Your leaguemates probably knew it. that Bucky Irving and Eggbuka were going to be
14:51garbage. Sell them off if you could with an undrafted free agent rushing quarterback coming under center for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. I did everything I
15:01could to freaking try to sell Ibuka um in my league this week. Nobody was buying, of course. Surprise, surprise.
15:07If you have Ibuka, I'm sure you tried the same thing and maybe you have the same result. But like I legit am going
15:14to start a wide like I I can't put Ibuka in my lineup anymore. Not until Baker's back or not until he shows us something.
15:22This was so so bad that I don't think you can play a single Tampa pass catcher. It's not like this Packers
15:29defense is elite by any stretch of the imagination.
15:33And looking at the running back usage, I am very concerned about Bucky because of the offense being bad.
15:42While yes, Sean Tucker vultures a rushing touchdown and Kenny Gainwell has a receiving touchdown as well, that was always a risk with drafting Bucky
15:50Irving, but I still think Bucky will be able to overcome it if it was an okay offense. But with how bad this offense
15:57is, Buckyy's no longer a set it and forget it top 15 running back. He's more of a low-end RB2 and flex play. Now going
16:07over to Jacksonville Cincinnati. Um Trevor Lauren still continues to play great football.
16:14Um Bashel Tutin still continues to be the lead back. We had Bayel Tutin as that sell high candidate along with those Bucks players this past week just
16:23because Chris Rodriguez was stealing work just because also we had a third running back Laquent Allen getting usage as a receiver. Uh a Bashel Tutin has
16:32himself a fine day leading this team. It still doesn't do much, right? He has 73 rushing yards. He has the two
16:37receptions, 18 receiving yards because Chris Rodriguez steals the rushing touchdown. Now, Bashel Tutton did have a big play called back, but still um usage
16:47is a little concerning even with him being the lead running back. And then I don't know what happened here at wide
16:53receiver. Parker Washington had a whopping three targets for one reception as well as seven yards. Well, yeah, Brian Thomas scored a touchdown. Tell
17:03you one thing, no way in hell I'm trusting Brian Thomas after a game where he just had two targets. So, I would
17:09still say that Parker Washington is a mustart wide receiver. Maybe people got over their skis a little bit with him.
17:19Maybe he's not going to be a top 12 name, but he's still probably going to be a top 24 wide receiver. I don't think
17:24one bad game changes that. I It's not like all of a sudden something changed where Brian Thomas is a target monster
17:31or Travis Hunter's playing a ton on the offensive side of the ball, but again, speaking of this game, I know we talked
17:37about in the Flock League live stream and I am sure that you all talked about it. I mean, you saw it as well. the T.
17:46Higgins Travis Hunter juke.
17:50The best video that came out of today and it's not even remotely close. Like Travis Hunter juking T. Higgins out of
17:57his shoes was absolutely incredible.
18:01Now moving over to Cincy. Joe Burrow went over 400 passing yards. If I would have given you that fact and that fact
18:10alone, you're ecstatic about everybody here.
18:14Chase Brown has a horrendous day rushing, but again, it doesn't matter.
18:19In a game in which the Bengals have 17 points, Chase Brown has 10 rushing yards and he doesn't score a touchdown. He
18:28still drops 20 fantasy points because the receiving usage, which is why Chase Brown is so damn enticing because he's essentially going to get there no matter
18:36what for fantasy football purposes. And then going over to the receivers, Tiggins as well as Jamar Chase both get banged up. Tiggins with an adductor
18:47injury. Jo Jamar Chase with the concussion. So, we're just got to monitor the injury reports. I would say like if Tiggins is 100% he's practicing
18:56in full by Thursday and Jamar Chase misses with the concussion, Tiggins will be a top five wide receiver in my rankings with no Jamar Chase. But
19:05obviously there is also a world in which Higgins misses this next week. Jamar Chase plays. Um there's a world where both of them miss, which if that were to
19:14happen, then all of a sudden we will have some Waverwire names for you to look at with the Waverwire video that
19:20will come out Tuesday morning.
19:23Okay, now let's go over to the Philadelphia Eagles and Los Angeles Rams game. Now, this game was crazy. Like I thought it was completely over. I was
19:34watching it with Zufa just in case y'all did not see. I'll pull this up real quick, but um if y'all been watching the
19:41Flock League, Zufa flew down to Austin to go do the trick-or-treating punishment with me. It was legitimately incredible. If you just look up Flock
19:52League on YouTube, it's the video got posted 35 minutes ago. It's the best YouTube video that I've ever been a part
19:58of. Like, it's unbelievable. for the love of God, watch that after this. But he's a big Rams fan. So obviously you're
20:05watching this game a bunch today. And the Rams got down on Poly Market US to have a 4% chance of winning this game
20:15and they came back and won. Like I believe this stat was the Philadelphia Eagles went 0 for1 on third down.
20:24Jaylen Herz is I don't want to say useless but god dang it was ugly. Now, it was a tough matchup where
20:36I don't want to hold too much against him because you had no Devont Smith, but I don't see how Jaylen Herz is
20:47somebody that you can start.
20:50Then running back Tank Bixsby will ship.
20:53This will be a running back by committee where Tank Bsby is the guy assuming he is healthy with no su Barkley here. I
21:00think the expectation honestly even though it was reported that Barkley was walking after the game normally I would be shocked if Barkley comes back
21:09plays next week. I mean again maybe I am and maybe I end up getting shocked but still going to the receivers. Dantavan
21:18Wixs does nothing because Jaylen Herds has less than 100 passing yards. Darius Cooper has two receiving touchdowns. For the love of God do not go and rush to
21:25pick him up.
21:28Fact of the matter is the Philly offense at this point may just be an absolute train wreck. While you have no Devonte
21:37Smith, you have no Suan Barkley, you have no AJ Brown.
21:41Now going to the Rams end of this, Stafford is 51 passing attempts and Puka Nua goes right back to being the guy he
21:51was. Puka 125 receiving yards, nine receptions. It's a really tough matchup.
21:57Devonte Adams does fall back down to earth. Obviously not the top target now that Puka is back. But the big thing
22:04that changes here is at this point the Blake Cororm usage is nothing. Blake Cororm's just exclusively a handcuffed running back.
22:15Kairen Williams realistically at this I don't want to say he's a top five running back. Like the running backs you clearly have to have over Kairen would
22:24be Gibbs Bejon, Christian McAffrey, Jonathan Taylor, Kenneth Walker. Apologize, Kenneth Walker's ahead of CMC and JT. Kenneth
22:34Walker's RB3 for me rest of season.
22:39But right outside those top five running backs, you have Kairen Williams. 16 carries and a careerhigh 13 targets for
22:48almost 30 opportunities. Man gets absolutely drilled going out of bounds.
22:54Like incredible.
22:56Um, so it it truly is crazy how much I think we
23:08are going to move Kairen Williams up our rankings in that running back rest of season rankings video that we're going to record um late tonight. That'll come
23:17out tomorrow morning. Now going over to the New England offense. I don't know what to do here. Like I benched Drake
23:24May literally. So two weeks a I mean last week right Drake May we are going into week three he had backto-back
23:31stinkers. Drake May looked like the worst quarterback in the NFL only ahead of Justin Herbert.
23:40Um I play him week three thinking like oh this is the bounceback right? I'm going to be rewarded for sticking with it,
23:51playing him in the third week.
23:54Unbelievably bad. Makes me the lowest scoring team in the league. Makes me get punished. And then he comes out and does
24:01this.
24:03He still had some really dumb plays. He still had some really bad moments, but you had the rushing.
24:10He threw some absolute dots.
24:15And now all of a sudden I'm right back to thinking like Drake May is probably playable in good matchups. Let me look up the Patriots
24:24schedule that we have going over the next few weeks because again I had Drake May. I streamed Bryce Young this week. I
24:31kept Drake May on my bench because I definitely wasn't giving up on him for the rest of the season against the Raiders, the Jets, the
24:38Bears, the Dolphins.
24:42So we'll see. We'll see if I can play him versus if I have to stream another quarterback for this next week and
24:46attack the Dallas defense or attack the Detroit defense. The running back usage between Remadre Stevenson, Trevon Henderson, um I honestly figured
24:56whenever I pulled up the box score here, this is my first time seeing the box score for Madre that you've had a better
25:01game. It seemed like every big player Readadre was in there for every time at the goal line, blah blah blah. Here's
25:06the deal. The Patriots aren't going to drop 29 points every week and Trevian are split in the back field. So, I think
25:12both running backs, you definitely need a roster. They can be desperation flexes for you. Um, but if we were to get a
25:21blowup season from one of these guys, it probably takes the other one getting injured
25:30most likely. Now, going over to the receiving, Romeo Dobs leads this team nine targets. Matt Collins gets injured, multiple receiving touchdowns,
25:42and again, shout out to the editors in the Flock League. They start Dobs and they probably win $5,000 this week for
25:48it. And there's a good chance that I may end up like ranking Dobs as a quality flex play in good matchups. Going over
25:57to Buffalo, nothing changes with Josh Allen, still the QB1 in fantasy.
26:01Obviously, not his best day here, but he gives you the goal line rushing touchdown. Uh nothing changes with James Cook. He's not going to have the goal
26:08line rushing touchdowns. Not going to be used as a receiver in a big time way, but it's a phenomenal offense. He's a
26:13great running back. He's going to have big um rushes.
26:17Very very comparable to like Saquon Barkley two years ago. And then with the receiving, we get a big Keon Coleman blowup game. Khalil Shakir leads the
26:28team with targets. DJ Moore gets injured. So, I'm going to have to wait see what the update is with the DJ Moore
26:34injury tomorrow and Tuesday. And obviously for that Tuesday waiverwire, we can talk in depth of if it makes sense going for Keon or Shakir. Now, the
26:45thing that frustrates me to no end is I thought I drafted a top three tight end with Dalton Concincaid.
26:52I don't know.
27:00I thought Concincade was set up to be an elite guy rest of season and I was so clearly wrong.
27:07Now, moving over to the Chicago Bears, Tyson Beant was the quarterback here. I think there's a good chance we get Cayla
27:15back next week. The running back usage is very interesting. Kyle Manungai looks like a straightup beast, right? We have seen Kyle Manungai in the past be the
27:25starting running back with DeAndre Swift missing. And what ended up happening was Kyle Manungai projected out to be like a top 10 running back that week and a set
27:35it and forget it starter here. It's going to be tough going into the future because DeAndre Swift didn't play at the
27:41end of the game. People didn't know if it was the knee injury. People didn't know if it was him getting benched from
27:44the fumble. And Ben Johnson comes out in the press conference and he just essentially says, "Oh, he's not injured." A wink and a nod saying they
27:54benched him because of the fumble. So after a Kyle Manungai game like this, you have to assume that they're not
28:04going to go right back to where DeAndre Swift was being used week one.
28:10This is probably going to be a running back by committee.
28:14I don't know. We're going to have to see what this coaching staff is saying about this running back room this week. But
28:19Kyle Manungai may look like somebody that you can put in your flex is just a much much I who people wanted Blake
28:27Cororm to be.
28:30People wanted Kairen Williams to get the DeAndre Swift treatment and Kyle Manungai to get the I mean Blake Cororm to get the Kyle Manungai treatment and
28:39it looks like it's happening here in Chicago instead. I'm not going to crown Manungy. We could get right back to next
28:45week DeAndre whip being the starter. So I think probably if I had to guess both of them will be low-end running back two
28:52in my rankings and we're just going to have to see what the usage looks like next week. Roma Dunes gets seven
28:57targets, Luther Burden gets six, Coulson Loveland gets nine. This is the first week where it looks like what you would have assumed it did coming into the
29:06season where Rome Bird and Loveland are all heavily involved. You don't have these guys like Khalif Raymond, Sam Roush, Cole KT stealing all the fantasy
29:15points.
29:17We'll see what it looks like when Caleb comes back in, but very bullish for all those other Chicago Bears players. Now,
29:25going to go Smith and the New York Jets.
29:27They were horrific.
29:29This was so so so bad. And I thought Brilen Allen was an absolute jam. You have no idea how many people I told this
29:37morning to play Brillin Allen over Amari and Hampton with the Jets projecting to score more points than the Chargers were and with again Brilen looking like he
29:47was just going to have the full threeown workload including the usage as a receiver. So, I don't know.
30:04I would say if Bree is out next week, you got to go right back to the well.
30:07He's the only person I have a carry in this game.
30:11But maybe the New York Jets are the New York Jets. Maybe Gino Smith is Gino Smith. And maybe the first few weeks of
30:20the season, they just had good matchups.
30:23Now, to be fair to them, also at the same time, you're in a spot in which like they have no Adenai Mitchell, no
30:34Mason Taylor, no Omar Cooper, no Bree Hall.
30:40So, tough spot to be in. Now, going over to the 0 and4 Tennessee Titans, you have the emergence from Cardinal Tate, the
30:48absolute alpha. Cardinal Tate is the only interesting player in this offense.
30:52This is a garbage offense. It doesn't show any signs of getting better.
30:55Carnell Tate looks like he's a phenomenal wide receiver. Your hope, which it's not going to happen, but your hope is these rookie season neighbors
31:03where he is just so damn good he can overcome a garbage offense.
31:08Now, moving to the Baltimore Ravens side of it. Very difficult to know anything here until we get word
31:19on if Lamar Jackson's going to be back next week. Right now, it sounds like he will be or it sounds like he has a
31:27chance. Ian Rapaort said he's dayto-day.
31:29Adam Sheffy said he's in a walking boot.
31:31And then a bunch of random Twitter doctors said a bunch of random things.
31:35So, we're gonna have to wait for the Lamar call.
31:39The concern is this limits his mobility.
31:42And of of course I don't want to put this out there in the world and it's most likely not going to happen. But if
31:48he does start racking up some injuries playing through them, maybe we get the Lamar Jackson at the end of last season
31:53where he was playing injured. Again, not rooting for that. There's a damn good chance he's just back at 100% soon.
31:59We're going to have to wait for the practice reports. If Lamar misses, Dererick Henry goes from being a borderline top five running back to
32:06still an automatic start, but more like a low-end RB1. And then Z Flowers goes from being a borderline top five wide
32:14receiver, which he looks to be with Lamar Jackson, to maybe a high-end wide receiver, too. They're still automatic jams, don't get me wrong, just because
32:22Derrick Henry as well as Zay Flowers are so damn good. Now, I'm going to be honest. I am nervous here
32:32because I have Justin Jefferson on my own team.
32:38Obviously, Jefferson doesn't play in this game, blah blah blah, but Kyler Murray did not look good. I want to root for Kyler Murray. I want to root for my
32:47short king, but this was an ugly, ugly game. I mean, the broadcast said the Vikings are the
32:56first team to go like 4-0 and two of those games not score a touchdown since like 1970 or something crazy.
33:06So, I am worried about Kyler. We have yet to see him play a game with Justin Jefferson. Jefferson is one of those
33:12wide receivers that can elevate the offense on his own.
33:16Running back Aaron Jones auto start with no Jordan Mason. Obviously, that's going to be the case every week until Jordan Mason's back. TJ Hawinson looked really
33:24good. He had the game in which we were hoping Jordan Addison would get, but I don't know if we'll talk about Hawinson
33:31in the Waverwire video. I don't know if you want to rush over and grab him immediately. If Jefferson comes back, it's going to be tough.
33:40Now, going to Miami.
33:44So Olly Gordon, again, we talked about heavily with the Waiverwire video. I bid about 45% of my
33:54fab budget on Olly Gordon in the Flock League. Sadly, I didn't get him. The devs went over 100% of budget to get
34:03Olly Gordon. They traded for additional fab, so they were able to just go and slam the hammer. Here's the deal. While
34:10it's a great game from Olly Gordon, I don't know if we can predict this going into the future because the problem is the Dolphins scored 10 points
34:20in this game.
34:22They projected to be the worst offense in the league this week and they were the worst offense in the league this
34:27week. They're 0 and4. So Gordon, we learn he's probably the guy over Jaylen Wright, but at the same time, he's just
34:36going to be flex consideration. I don't think he's like a league winner. So, if you're in like a 10 team, two receiver,
34:41one flex format, don't feel bad if you missed out on Ollie Gordon. I feel bad that I missed out in my league because
34:47it's a league where depth is really tough to come by and my team is garbage.
34:52And so, I could have used him instead of freaking playing Dalton Schultz of all players. Like, I played Daltton Schultz this week, which this is why this is one
35:01of the many reasons I'm saying my team is, and y'all don't want to hear about my team, but my team is so bad. And the
35:07only person I have to blame myself is myself. And one of those decisions I decided to make was dear for the love of God playing
35:18Dalton Schultz of all players.
35:21Dalton Schultz of all players.
35:25Now going to the Denver Broncos, San Francisco 49ers. Um Patrick Certain gets banged up in this game. So obviously that will negatively impact the Denver
35:36defense and they'll be less scary of a matchup going into the future. The running back usage, RJ Harvey is the receiving back. JK Dobbins is the first
35:46and second down running back. Again, I prefer Harvey between the two. I think he's the higher upside play. I just don't see any realistic upside that you
35:57have with um JK Dobbins specifically.
36:03Now, in terms of the receiving involvement, Wadd outside of the RJRV dump offs does lead the team in targets is the most talented receiver. So, you
36:13still start and this is a tough matchup for this Denver offense. And then going over to S Scope again, tough matchup.
36:19McAffrey doesn't have the receiving usage you would like to see. honestly kind of felt like we had more Kalin Black than what the box were showing.
36:28But McAffrey still does get 20 opportunities. So, he's still right there as a borderline top five running back. He's definitely not a running away
36:36runaway, nobody comes close to him level player anymore, but he's pretty damn close to it. And then Mike Evans played through an injury in a tough matchup.
36:45Had himself a fine day. George KD almost did nothing until the very end of the game and had the big touchdown. But
36:50that's kind of George KD's deal, right?
36:52George KD is known to have the big touchdown. So, I don't want to act like, oh, okay, well, if you started George
36:57KD, you got lucky or KD's no longer the Titan three. Like, after last week, I did move George KD to being tightened
37:04three only behind Bowowers and McBride.
37:08And I think especially after this game, it's probably where everybody needs to have him going to the Seahawks and Chargers. I had the opportunity to trade
37:17for Emanuel Wilson this week, which dear God, I should have done so.
37:22I I would have won this week instead. We need to move on from my team. But I was worried with the running backs here in
37:28Seattle that it was going to be a split backfield between Emanuel Wilson as well as George Alani. What we have learned is
37:36George Alani is just not good.
37:40So with that in mind, it's just going to be the Emanuel Wilson show with how this backfield shakes up right this second.
37:48Now with that also being said, um Joe Mixon visited this team today. So
37:57there is a world in which you have Joe Mixon which throws a wrench in things and Emanuel Wilson obviously at that point's
38:07probably not startable. Emanuel Wilson's not good enough to be startable in a committee.
38:12And also Zack Charmin was back at practice and once Charminay comes back it's probably going to be a committee backfield. So if Emanuel Wilson is set
38:20up this way again where next week it's only him and George Alani. Emanuel Wilson's somebody who play JSN still uh top one to2 wide receiver in fantasy so
38:31nothing changes there either.
38:34Now moving to the Los Angeles Chargers.
38:37They lost their tackles in this game.
38:39They lost Lad McConi.
38:41You get some late game points scored.
38:45Let's be real here. This game was completely over very early on. This Chargers team is horrific. It's probably going to be 0 and seven.
38:56They're probably not playing for anything.
39:00I the biggest concern is the fact that if you go over and look at Amari Hampton right now with him in comparison to
39:09Katon Mitchell with him in comparison to Kamani Vidal he's in a full-blown running back by committee in a garbage offense.
39:19So Marian Hampton we had moved down to being like a mid running back too in our rest of season ranks. Hell, he may be a
39:26lowend RB2.
39:28It is ugly. Quinton Johnson's drop. The only guy I could ever consider getting in my lineup here would be Amarian Hampton. The only one.
39:38And then the last game we need to talk about will be the Kansas City Chiefs, Las Vegas Raiders. So with Mahomes, he's
39:45fully back with Kenneth Walker. He is 100% in my rankings, the running back three overall. I have him behind Bejon Robinson, Jir Gibbs, and then it's
39:55Kenneth Walker. Honestly, you can rank them whatever order you want. All I know is I hate myself more than anything in
40:02the world for trading this dude away for Justin Jefferson. Worst call I've ever made. Um, and yeah, looking at the receivers, I
40:12dropped Xavier Worthy. Coming into this game, Xavier Worthy had 0.6 yards per route run. Xavier Worthy looked like the worst wide receiver in the NFL through
40:20the first three weeks. Then Rasheed Rice gets injured. Then Taquon Thornton gets injured. And I'm like, damn, I may want Xavier Worthy on my team.
40:30What's probably going to end up happening here is you will probably see some wide receiver, whether it's Tyreek Hill, signed with the Kansas City Chiefs or a
40:42trade where maybe you get like Jerry Judy traded to the Kansas City Chiefs.
40:47So, I think those will be the expectations.
40:51And then going over to the Raiders, nothing really changes here. Like from a real life perspective, obviously you can have the talking points of, "Oh my gosh,
41:00the Raiders um they're a legit football team, blah blah blah." Talking only fantasy football. Genty was a running back one before this. He's a running
41:08back one after this. This dude just had 23 opportunities and gets everything as a receiver. Brock Bowers was the tight end one before this. He's the tight end
41:16one after this. Michael Mayer has himself a good game as well. I wouldn't start Michael Mayer with the healthy Brock Powers though. I think it was more
41:23of a one-off. And then we already talked about the Teteroa McMillan master class at the very beginning of the live
41:32stream. So if you wanted to hear us talk about Carolina, wanted to hear us talk about Detroit, rewind to the beginning
41:41of the stream. I'm going to be up super late tonight updating all my rankings on vlogfantasy.com going through and recording those videos
