0:00Normally I wait until after Sunday Night
0:02Football to go live, but I'm going to be
0:04honest, this Sunday felt different. I
0:07don't know if it was just because it was
0:08my team. I don't know if I'm just
0:09sitting here crying, but the amount of
0:12injuries that we had feels like
0:14something that we do need to talk about.
0:16And I just want to go through and talk
0:18about each injury that happened today,
0:22our future outlook of it, and then
0:24obviously I'll be live again after
0:25Sunday Night Football to do a little
0:27more of an in-depth analysis per game.
0:29and update our rankings. But yeah, these
0:31are like my initial gut reactions to all
0:33the injury stuff. But let's go ahead.
0:37Let's start off with the Garrett Wilson
0:39update. So, I know we had some people in
0:40the live chat asking about this earlier.
0:42The Garrett Wilson stuff doesn't matter
0:43much, but this is what Aaron Glenn did
0:45say about it.
0:46>> All right, but Garrett's fine. Orham has
0:48a knee. Um, Bree St. And Garrett had a
0:53head eval which he cleared. So, he'll be
0:55he'll be just fine.
0:56>> Yeah. So, Garrett Wilson got hit with
0:58the head. Sounds like he's going to be
0:59fine. If you have a Garrett Wilson,
1:00nothing to worry about. Sucks that he
1:02left the game for a little bit, but he's
1:03okay. Now, something that you may do
1:05need to worry about. It's going to be
1:06this Breeze Hall situation.
1:08>> Um,
1:10I know it sucks, but um, part of the
1:12game. Um,
1:16it just sucks.
1:17>> Did you pull something?
1:19>> Um, I don't know yet. Um, you know, I
1:22felt something when I was running. Um,
1:24and then got tackled and planted and
1:26then felt something else. So, we'll see.
1:29>> So, you have a
1:31>> So, Bree Hall when he went to the
1:32sideline, like he was ruled out
1:34immediately. He didn't try going back
1:36into the game, it was just they
1:37immediately went through and they threw
1:40Brilan Allen into the game. They said,
1:42"Brayan, it's your job from here on
1:43out." Um, and with Breece doesn't sound
1:47super optimistic after the game. Now, in
1:50terms of like
1:52what do we know it is? They're saying
1:54it's a thigh injury. They're not saying
1:56it's a knee injury. They're not saying
1:57that, oh, okay, he tore an ACL. That's
1:59something we have to be worried about.
2:00So, I wouldn't sit here and panic that
2:02Bree is going to be missing this season,
2:05but um again, looks more like a quad
2:09that we have. And it will be something
2:11that's very important to hear what this
2:12team has to say about this on Monday and
2:15Tuesday, but I wouldn't be that
2:16surprised if Breeall does end up missing
2:20a few weeks here. And it is the Brilan
2:22Allen show in New York. Now, it does
2:25seem like we are going to have Jaylen
2:27McMillan reagravating the knee injury.
2:28Jaylen McMillan's going to be missing
2:30some time. That's not going to be the
2:31end of the world, though. So, the Mike
2:33Evans situation's very interesting here.
2:35So, Mike Evans goes to the sideline,
2:38essentially says he can't breathe. He
2:41had to drop down to a knee and sounds
2:43like it's a rib problem. Now, of course,
2:47God knows what this means in terms of
2:49time missed, but Mike Evans was not able
2:51to go back to the game. And I do think
2:53this is something you potentially have
2:54to be concerned about with Evans maybe
2:57missing week I I don't know week four,
3:00week five, week six is keep in mind with
3:03Evans, this has just been over and over
3:04and over again that you've dealt with
3:06these miscellaneous injuries as they've
3:08popped up. It's not like this is just a
3:11oneoff brand new situation that we've
3:13had with Evans. I mean, he's had all
3:15these soft tissue stuff. So, I would
3:18monitor the rib. I wouldn't be surprised
3:19if it does lead to Mike Evans missing
3:22more practices of course and then
3:24ultimately leading to some missed games.
3:26Now, Devon Aan was able to walk off the
3:30field still in uniform after his knee
3:32injury, but here's the thing that we
3:35got. Um Jeff Hayle says they're still
3:39gathering info on Devon Chan, but quote
3:41unquote, to be honest with you, it does
3:43not sound optimistic. So knee injury for
3:47them to come through and say, "Hey,
3:48doesn't sound optimistic is pretty much
3:51worst case scenario for what you're
3:53going to get after the game." It would
3:54maybe be a little bit different here if
3:56this was a team that was playing for
3:58something. It would maybe be a little
4:00bit different here if this was a Miami
4:02Dolphins team that had a reason to rush
4:04Devon Han back in. But fact of the
4:07matter is, this is a team that should be
4:09playing for the number one overall pick,
4:11whether they want to take Jeremiah Smith
4:12or whether they want to take a
4:13quarterback. Um I I don't see them
4:16rushing their face of the franchise back
4:18from a pretty serious knee injury. And
4:21there's a chance that out of all the
4:22injuries that we're going to talk about
4:23today, this Devon Achan one is the
4:26season ender. Now going over to what
4:28absolutely just brutalized me is this
4:31Justin Jefferson ankle. So I'm going to
4:34be completely honest with y'all and this
4:36is something that's tough to admit to
4:38myself. This is something that's tough
4:41to admit to y'all. But at this point, it
4:44kind of needs to be said.
4:47My team is ass.
4:50My team is so bad, it's not even funny.
4:54I didn't even crack 100 fantasy points
4:57this week.
5:00I went from in the flock league having
5:02the best team in the first two years,
5:06most wins in league history. Week one
5:08this year, scoring the most points,
5:09winning the $5,000, being able to give
5:11it away to now all of a sudden after
5:13week three, my team was already just
5:17straight up buns. And then this Justin
5:20Jefferson ankle injury.
5:23Like this was already one of the worst
5:25days of my life. And then Jefferson got
5:26injured. It's been absolutely brutal.
5:30So, here's the deal with the Jefferson
5:32ankle video. People are saying like,
5:33"Hey, it looks like a high ankle
5:35sprain." Obviously, him getting ruled
5:36out of a close game. Not great, but he
5:40was able to walk to the locker room. It
5:42wasn't like he had a massive limp
5:44hobbling.
5:46He looked fine walking around, but of
5:48course, Jackson Dart also looked fine
5:50after his game on Monday. Now, of
5:52course, I'm not sitting here thinking
5:54that Justin Jefferson's going to miss
5:56the season. And the only guy that I
5:57would honestly say has a chance for that
5:59to be the case um based on what happened
6:02today is probably Devon Achan.
6:05But god dang, I traded Kenneth Walker
6:08for Justin Jefferson before the season.
6:12I was dancing, celebrating, bragging
6:15about it. The rest of the people in my
6:17league were pissed at the team that gave
6:19me Justin Jefferson for Kenneth Walker.
6:22And in hindsight now being 2020, but it
6:25looks like one of the worst trades I've
6:26ever made in my entire life. And I my
6:29team sold because of the trades that I
6:31made. A freaking horrible. Another
6:34player that I traded for. Travis ETN now
6:39down with a hamstring injury. Travis ETN
6:41was scoring points. This Saints offense
6:43looked legit. Keep in mind, Travis ETN
6:46was limited in practice with the
6:48hamstring injury. We didn't exactly know
6:50if he was going to be playing going into
6:52this game either. So, for now, ETN
6:56getting ruled out with a hamstring. It
6:58It sounds like Travis ETN is going to
7:00miss some time here as well. Now, of
7:01course, I'm not expecting that Travis
7:03ETN is missing the season or anything,
7:06but you should expect to not have ETN
7:08for a couple weeks. I I have ETN and
7:11Jefferson on my team. I'm expecting to
7:12not have either of these guys for a
7:14couple weeks. And then going over to
7:16what we have with the Baker Mayfield
7:18stuff, like realistically
7:22it was a completely busted play. Crazy
7:26that they even went for it on fourth
7:28down.
7:30Baker Mayfield injures his thumb.
7:34Then comes through.
7:37Um, he's on the ground screaming in pain
7:42on a play that they shouldn't have run,
7:43on a play that they should have just
7:45punted. The backup quarterback is a
7:48quarterback that I've never even heard
7:49of before. Some undrafted free agent
7:52rookie that they have. He comes in, he
7:55doesn't seem like he's going to be a
7:56gunslinger. He's running the ball
7:57around. He can't even get the Hail Mary
8:00to the end zone at the end of the game.
8:02So, as somebody that has Ibuka on their
8:04team,
8:06Baker Mayfield's not great, but he's
8:08definitely better than the undrafted
8:09free agent quarterback that came in at
8:11the end of the game. And I do think that
8:12this has to lower the expectations that
8:15we have for the receivers here in Tampa.
8:18And then also sticking with what we have
8:20for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers injuries,
8:24like we're sitting in a spot here in
8:27which uh Bucky Irving did
8:33Um, I missed the final drive. I don't
8:36know. Do we have official word with
8:39something happening to Bucky?
8:42If anybody's in the chat
8:50because Bucky Irving didn't go in in the
8:52final drive.
8:54Instead, it was Kenneth Gainwell and
8:56Bucky was standing on the sideline with
8:57like no helmet. Um, so it looks like
9:00Tampa Bay running back Bucky Irving
9:02looks to be injured on the sideline and
9:03Kenneth Gainwell was in the game who was
9:05an above average receiving back blah
9:06blah blah. Uh, Deb Mueller says, "Seems
9:08like Bucky Irving may have picked up an
9:10injury today. Uncertain on the details.
9:11One to watch for week four." Yeah. So,
9:13we don't have like a video. We don't
9:14have any clarity on what happened with
9:16Bucky Irving, but this is another injury
9:18that we have in Tampa that we are going
9:20to have to monitor as well.
9:23So the amount of injuries that we are
9:27dealing with today,
9:32Baker Jefferson Achan Bree Mike
9:36Evans, obviously the Pukanua stuff this
9:38morning, Travis CTN,
9:44and then throw Bucky Irving on the list
9:46potentially.
9:49It's absolutely brutal. I will um
9:53obviously be live after the game tonight
9:55doing a little bit more of a game
9:57by-game recap going deep into each one.
10:02But I wanted to go live now and just
10:06vent to y'all because one again my team
10:10was asked to begin with. I mean we were
10:13just getting absolutely squashed this
10:15week. This is my first time ever having
10:17a losing record in the flock league.
10:20I'm now sitting at one and two after
10:22being the number one team in the league
10:23standings after week one.
10:26And now also at the same time I'm
10:28dealing with injuries going into next
10:29week. And like you're one and two,
10:31especially if you fall down to one and
10:33three. Like you are in a must-win
10:36territory. And this is all before we
10:38even start talking about the New England
10:39Patriots and Drake May. But I will talk
10:43about the Drake May and Patriots
10:45situation after the Sunday night
10:48football game that we have here. Um,
10:50obviously I need to go through and
10:54um I need to make sure that we are going
10:58to be live on the Flock League channel
11:00during the Sunday night football game
11:02and then I'll be live back on this
11:04channel talking about the ramifications
11:07again of each game, each performance,
11:10the whole nine yards once we get
11:13everything. And um looking at the Sunday
11:16night football game, is there something
11:19that changed here? Cuz as of a couple
11:22hours ago, there was a 55% chance that
11:25the Rams won this game on Poly Market
11:27US. And that has gotten lowered down to
11:30a 50% chance. Right now, it's a 5050
11:32coin flip between the Rams and the
11:35Denver Broncos. Is this with Puka Nua
11:38being ruled out? Is that really what it
11:39is? Super weird to see that price action
11:43there. But obviously if y'all wanted to
11:45check out um any of the markets for
11:47tonight's game, it is Poly Market US.
11:49Links in the description. It's in the
11:51comment section. It's in the live chat.
11:53You can go through and see. Devonte
11:55Adams has a 63% chance of going 13 or
11:57more fantasy points if you're needing
11:59that. We have a 46% chance of R.J.
12:02Harvey hitting nine fantasy points. 41%
12:04chance for Dobbins hitting nine. But
12:07link to Poly Market US is in the
12:09description comment section live chat.
12:11Sign up with code flock. You'll get 50
12:12bucks added to your account after you

12:17and also Poly Market US is available in
12:20every US state outside of Nevada. But
12:22sorry for the impromptu live stream
12:25here. Again, was not um typically not
12:30doing this until after the Sunday night
12:32game, but this felt like a very weird
12:35Sunday. that I needed to come out here
12:37and rant because my team's ass it's
12:41going to suck. This will be the first
12:43year in the Flock League that I have to
12:44be submitting clips
12:47with a bad team and I don't know how I'm
12:49going to do it. Like today was not
12:51enjoyable at all for me. It sucked from
12:53the very beginning and only got worse as
12:55the day went on. Like my team is so damn
12:58bad. It's it's freaking brutal.
13:02But I think that's all I got for y'all.
13:04I really appreciate you. I'll see you in
13:07the Flock League live stream in about 20
13:08minutes to watch the Sunday Night
13:10Football game. And I will see you in the
13:12Flock Fantasy live stream on this
13:14channel after the Sunday Night Football
13:16game to talk about each game, each
13:18player performance, and update our
13:20rankings from here. Maybe we'll have
13:22some additional injury information as
13:24well. But much love. Appreciate you.
