Antonio Williams
NegativeBust70:31
Adam Levitan explicitly identifies Antonio Williams as a bad play in his DFS lineup construction.
Insight pageBraelon Allen
PositiveBreakout20:43
Adam Levitan remains enamored with Braylon Allen's talent and views him as a strong play, noting that his lack of pass-catching usage in the previous week was an anomaly and he possesses significant upside.
Insight pagePositiveUsage25:07
Adam Levitan and the co-hosts defend the Braylon Allen play in Week 5, noting he saw 24 carries and 4 targets. Despite the debate over his talent versus Emmanuel Wilson, Levitan argues that Allen's volume and role make him a strong play at his $5,400 price point.
Insight pageCharlie Kolar
NegativeRole70:42
Adam Levitan notes that Charlie Kolar's return from a broken arm was not widely reported, making him a 'stone cold zero' for fantasy purposes once he was active, as he cannibalized the value of other receivers like Gadsden.
Insight pageD'Andre Swift
PositiveUsage0:53
Adam Levitan identified D'Andre Swift as a 'must-play' in Week 5 cash games, citing his role and projection as a core component of the optimal build.
Insight pageDe'Von Achane
NegativeBust33:06
Devon Achane is criticized as being one of the worst second-round picks in fantasy football history due to the team's overall lack of talent and poor performance.
Insight pageDylan Laube
NegativeUsage40:46
Dylan Laube received unexpected touches and scored his first NFL touchdown while the primary back was clearly injured and limping.
Insight pageNegativeUsage67:19
Dylan Laube received unexpected touches and scored his first NFL touchdown, a usage pattern Adam Levitan found bizarre and potentially linked to local ties or specific game-plan adjustments due to other injuries.
Insight pageEmanuel Wilson
NegativeValue22:03
Emmanuel Wilson is viewed as being priced for an inefficient offense, making him less desirable compared to players with higher upside like Braylon Allen.
Insight pageNegativeUsage25:49
Adam Levitan notes that Emmanuel Wilson saw 20 carries and 2 catches in Week 5, but struggled with efficiency (2 yards per carry). Levitan argues that while Wilson was a viable play, he was ultimately out-produced by Braylon Allen in the same game environment.
Insight pageGeorge Holani
NegativeDepth Chart27:24
Adam Levitan describes George Holani as potentially the worst running back in the NFL, ranking him near the bottom of the league's 96 running backs.
Insight pageIsaiah Davis
NegativeUsage20:20
Frank Reich indicated that the Jets' drives were not long enough to get Isaiah Davis into the game, which is a significant concern for his usage floor.
Insight pageJacoby Brissett
PositiveUsage13:38
Adam Levitan notes that Jacoby Brissett is a high-volume passer, averaging 41 dropbacks per game. Levitan emphasizes that the team allows him to run a seven-step dropback offense, which provides a significant fantasy advantage for his pass-catchers.
Insight pageJahmyr Gibbs
PositiveValue18:41
Adam Levitan highlights Jahmyr Gibbs as the best value on the Week 5 slate, noting he was priced as a 'must-play' with strong anytime touchdown odds (-450). Levitan expressed frustration that Gibbs was only 66% owned in high-stakes double-ups, calling it poor roster construction by the field.
Insight pageJaxon Smith-Njigba
PositiveUsage37:14
Jaxon Smith-Njigba suffered a frustrating drop on a key late-game target and was potentially playing through a concussion or ankle injury.
Insight pageJaylen Warren
PositiveValue1:41
Adam Levitan considers Jalen Warren a 'smash' play, noting he is a highly talented player. While Levitan struggled to fit him into DraftKings lineups due to roster constraints, he successfully played him on FanDuel.
Insight pagePositiveValue39:58
Jalen Warren's ownership was surprisingly low because the news of Rico Dowdle being ruled out did not register with the general public, making Warren an undervalued play.
Insight pageJustin Jefferson
PositiveValue68:51
Adam Levitan targeted Justin Jefferson in DFS lineups, anticipating he would be under-owned and capable of outperforming other high-priced options like Amon-Ra St. Brown.
Insight pageKendrick Bourne
NegativeUsage8:30
Adam Levitan notes that Kendrick Bourne's role remained stable despite Marvin Harrison Jr.'s absence, running 32 routes. Levitan argues that Bourne is a target-earner, though he admits he was not a 'Nate play' and was considered a thin option compared to other receivers.
Insight pageLuther Burden
PositiveUsage28:18
Despite inconsistent fantasy production, Luther Burden is a target due to his high volume, having received 13 targets in a recent game.
Insight pageMalik Nabers
NegativeInjury30:49
Adam Levitan expresses concern about Malik Nabers' long-term health, noting he appears banged up and could be replaced by JJ McCarthy if the team continues to lose.
Insight pageMichael Wilson
PositiveUsage5:01
Adam Levitan considered Michael Wilson a 'must-play' at $6,200 in Week 5, citing the favorable game environment, his target share, and the team's projected passing volume.
Insight pageNegativeBust70:24
Adam Levitan regrets including Michael Wilson in his Kyler Murray-led DFS lineup, noting the team construction was poor and the play did not yield positive results.
Insight pageMike Washington Jr.
NegativeInjury67:08
Adam Levitan notes that Mike Washington Jr. was expected to be available until a late-morning update, and he appeared to be dealing with an injury during the game, which limited his usage.
Insight pageRoman Wilson
NegativeBust29:03
Adam Levitan suggests that playing Roman Wilson in cash games was a mistake, noting that he had 'no mojo' and that the argument for him was based on thin speculation regarding Aaron Rodgers' preference rather than data.
Insight pageTre Harris
NegativeUsage6:46
Adam Levitan considered Trey Harris a 'must-play' in Week 5 due to his high target share and route participation, despite being attached to a poor quarterback. Levitan notes that Harris was targeted or the first read on a significant portion of early passing plays.
Insight pageTrey McBride
PositiveUsage8:33
Adam Levitan highlights Trey McBride's massive usage, noting he ran 50 routes in Week 5. Levitan criticizes the field for only rostering him at 60% in cash games, calling him a 'stone cold lock' given his role in the offense.
Insight pagePositiveValue24:13
Trey McBride was a clear value play at tight end, with ownership levels that were significantly higher than any other player at the position, which is rare.

Episode Transcript
0:00The man, the myth, the legend, Sammy Reed decided, hey man, I'm going to go touch grass.
0:05And I said, hey, the people have always wanted Adam Levitan on the show for Approve It Week.
0:10You know, they get Peter on in Week 18, but he makes a mockery of God's game, Adam.
0:16He really does. He doesn't take it seriously. He doesn't know that from Tuesday till Sunday morning, we are grinding to a
0:22nub every decimal trying to decide between Kendrick Bourne, Antonio Williams, and Roman Wilson.
0:26We're saying, is this a McBride week? Is it not a McBride week?
0:30We're reading the training camp reports. We're in the weeds, Adam.
0:33And I don't appreciate what Peter does to our beautiful game.
0:37It's insulting, but it does drum up a lot of action for Week 18, which I always appreciate.
0:42You know, in these streets these days, anybody who is willing to drum up action for cash is good in my book.
0:48That's true. That's true. It was, I mean, basically the most straightforward imaginable week in cash games.
0:53The must plays were DeAndre Swift, Jameer Gibbs, Jacoby Brissett.
0:56I thought those were the must, must plays. My want play, well, actually, my want play, Adam, was Jalen Warren.
1:02There was really no way to make it work, though.
1:05There was no way to get Jalen Warren in the Braylon Allen spot, I don't think.
1:10Did you try and look at that? Uh, yes.
1:13And I could not do it, but I actually went out of my way to play Jalen Warren on FanDuel.
1:18Um, and you know, that was not like a lot of people played Aaron Jones, um, on FanDuel.
1:24And so, yeah, that was good. You know, the Jalen Warren was just, guy is just so good in such a smash.
1:30But yes, on DraftKings, I did not see a clean way to get to Jalen Warren.
1:35I considered even going to, um, over Swift, like Jalen Warren over Swift.
1:39Like, I thought Jalen Warren was a way better play than Swift, but then you would have had to get off Jets defense.
1:46And, you know, I thought Swift was, was solid enough.
1:49So, so yeah, you know, that's the advantage of playing both sites is like, I don't beat myself up when, um, I
1:55don't have someone I really like on one site.
1:58There were, there were a couple, so there were, I'll admit, I always like that you can ask love or you can ask Wiggins about this.
2:05I always do try and get a little bit creative to try and get to some of the, the want plays before lock.
2:12So I did look at a team that was, uh, Mr.
2:15Secret Baygent at quarterback. Oh no. And then it was Warren over Allen.
2:19And then I don't remember who it got up, but it got up to someone over Kendrick Bourne and then down to
2:26the Tennessee Titans of defense, which obviously would have been, I, even with the Warren smash would have just been absolutely, uh, would have been throttled.
2:33I did. I will admit, I did think about trying to mess with a Baygent mostly because, and it's very funny to
2:40look at the results, seeing that Michael Wilson got seven and born got 12.
2:44I didn't really think that Marvin Harrison Jr. Not playing.
2:47I did not think it did absolutely anything to Kendrick Bourne at all.
2:51Wait, I see. I thought that Marvin Harrison gone was worse for Michael Wilson.
2:55Kendrick Bourne has a dick. Kendrick Bourne can earn targets.
2:58Marvin Harrison does not. I thought it was worse for Michael Wilson.
3:01I was still always playing him and I can actually consider Michael Wilson a must at 6,200 given the game environment, given
3:08his targets and given the way we had him projected.
3:11But yes, I thought it was worse for Marvin.
3:14And yeah, I just thought it meant Kendrick Bourne would be on the field more.
3:18So yeah, I thought it was definitely better for Kendrick Bourne that Marvin Harrison was gone.
3:23Okay. So Kendrick Bourne had run 187 routes on the year and Marvin Harrison Jr.
3:27was on the field for 185 of them, which you can take that one of two ways.
3:32The one way, and this is the way I took it was he's not going to run any more routes because he
3:39was already on the field with Marvin Harrison Jr.
3:41for all these routes. So it wasn't like, oh, this guy's going to go because the classic DFS cheap receiver is what
3:48we did with Trey Harris, which is the guy who has a route ceiling who now and it's funny because Trey Harris ends up getting injured.
3:55Although Trey Harris was actually going to have a great game, by the way, and I'm not even like a chart.
4:02You guys know I absolutely hate the Chargers. He was going to have a great game.
4:06He was targeted like he was either targeted or the first read on like six of their first 10 passing plays.
4:13They did like they didn't end around to him like they tried.
4:16They tried to get him the ball. It just, you know, he's a charger.
4:20So that means he got injured. Oh, and he's not that good.
4:24You know, I mean, but you know, especially if Sertan and Riley Moss were both playing, I would have been like, all
4:30right, you know, you want to do something other than Trey Harris.
4:34Maybe I can see that, but given everybody that was out and Riley Moss and Sertan out, I'm totally fine with the Trey Harris play.
4:41I think that was fine. I actually had him.
4:44Yeah, I had him as a must also. Like I had literally six musts on this.
4:49Like that might be a new record for me.
4:51I thought Gibbs, Brissett, Swift, Trey Harris, McBride, and Michael Wilson were all musts.
4:55And like anytime I think I have that many guys I think are stone cold locks, like I know I'm going to win.
5:02I don't know if I've ever lost when I've had like four or five, six musts.
5:07So there you go. Welcome to the program, Nate.
5:10There you go. Kendrick Bourne ran 32 routes. Michael Wilson ran 44.
5:13Trey McBride ran 50. So Kendrick Bourne's role did not change, which.
5:17I mean, isn't jailed like isn't jail and Brooks's targets per route run going to be better than Marvin Harrison Jr.'s?
5:23Like I'm not even I'm not even dicking around like legit jail and Brooks might.
5:27I am sure in this game he has a better targets per route run than Marvin Harrison Jr.
5:33I played I played Kendrick Bourne, obviously, but I did think it was the worst play of of the three receivers of
5:39Michael Wilson, Kendrick Bourne and Trey Harris. So one thing about like and the two V two that I looked at was
5:46Bourne and Jets the verse Roman Wilson and Wilson and tight and Titans.
5:49That was the one that I thought was somewhat close.
5:52But one thing that I think like in these spots when you play both Bourne and Wilson, like you raise your floor, right?
5:59You raise your floor. Likely one of them or both of them are going to fail in a spot like this.
6:05So I thought you did raise your floor a bit by playing both of them.
6:10And obviously, like people underrate Jets defense. I think we had a really nice projection on them.
6:15It was they were the third highest projected defense raw points of the whole slate.
6:19Yeah. And this dude David Bailey is like a huge hit for the Jets.
6:23So, you know, I thought I never I try not to let defense like really sway me too much, but I thought
6:30it was close between Bourne and Wilson. And so having the defense upgrade there, I thought made sense.
6:35I mean, Nate, I got to be honest. Kendrick Bourne does not seem like a Nate play.
6:40Like I felt like I felt like you were like begging to try and find your way to some you were going
6:47to you were going to spend like honestly, I thought you might show up with with with with not percent.
6:53I thought you might show up with Bajan or Kyler or something in order to not play Kendrick Bourne.
6:58It's so not a Nate play. I mean, I didn't want to play Kendrick Bourne, but I I don't know.
7:04I mean, I thought the build was just so obvious this week as soon as as soon as the Marvin Harrison news
7:11came out, as soon as everything fell into place, there was just no getting off.
7:15I mean, I I don't know. I saw the Roman Wilson thing.
7:18I saw the Emmanuel Wilson thing, but I I just felt so comfortable with this build.
7:23So I don't know. I was I don't like Kendrick Bourne, but the Trey Harris thing also might have been a little bit thin, too.
7:31So I don't know which one I felt worse about.
7:34Uh, I don't I don't think the I feel I feel fine about the Trey Harris play like he's I mean, look, he's attached to a shitty quarterback.
7:42So that is what it is. But. I mean, that game was it was also I mean, we have any.
7:48I just went all in on Trey Wilson. I had Trey Wilson everywhere, too.
7:52So I had him in tournaments that Michael Wilson or Trey Harris.
7:55You just you just confused both. You just confused.
7:58Oh, Trey Harris. I had. I had Trey Harris like everywhere.
8:01Yeah, so that that's the play that I feel the worst about today.
8:05But I do think this Arizona offense is so concentrated with those guys.
8:09Uh, and they have to drop back 50 times every game.
8:12They're going to like they're locked into it. That's the thing.
8:15It's it's 38 to 14 or whatever it was.
8:18And they just keep dropping him back. I mean, Joey Brissett came into this game averaging 41 dropbacks the game this season.
8:25He was at more than that last year. Like they don't care.
8:28You know, like so it's a huge, huge advantage to to have that.
8:32Obviously most most teams. This is this is true.
8:35Most teams will just give up. They will just run the ball.
8:38They will get I mean, this is this is like a huge problem with Jets players.
8:43This is a problem with Brown. This is a huge problem.
8:46Actually, if you are like a Carnell Tate guys big problem with Carnell Tate is they do not even though they're they start every game down 10 points.
8:54The Titans do not go back to immediate garbage time mode when they still try and run their offense.
9:00Like I think Jeremiah Love got 11 carries today with eight of them coming in the first half.
9:05I believe like they they don't even pretend to run a real offense.
9:09And they and they keep going. I mean McBride scored what didn't McBride scored at the two minute drill like as the
9:16like like it's an insane scam that Trey McBride has running here.
9:19Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. That was one of the most ridiculous catches I've seen to just like meaningless garbage time fourth down
9:26when it was ridiculous catches I've ever seen. That was very expensive for Mr.
9:30Leone there as as the chalk kind of got there on him late.
9:34But yeah. Yeah, it was good. Yeah, that was also a grown ass man catch.
9:38I mean, don't don't don't make it seem like that was some slot.
9:42That was awesome. Everyone knows Trey McBride is really good.
9:45But I think we can all just be honest that like, you know, not everyone knows people literally for five years thought
9:51that he couldn't score touchdowns because he had Kyler Murray as his freaking quarterback.
9:55You know what? This is actually years. You know what?
9:58This is actually one of my my big, big, big pet peeves.
10:02They never let Kyler execute offense like this. They would they would get down and they would they would be still trying
10:08to run Zonovan Knight into the line. They never let they never let Kyler drop back 50 times in a game.
10:15They they they totally like Kobe Brissett is running a fucking seven step drop back offense from from from the first kick.
10:21They would never let Kyler do that. I mean, Kyler, I don't think would be that good at it.
10:27But we do need to talk about how low Trey McBride was owned in cash games.
10:31The fact that like it's 2026 week five and the easiest play of the entire slate was only 60 percent owned in cash games is just did unfathomable.
10:40Well, McBride was more McBride was more owned than Gibbs.
10:43Gibbs is to me. Wait, I thought that. I mean, obviously, I thought McBride was a stone cold lock in this slate
10:49context, but Gibbs was less owned than McBride in double ups.
10:52Yeah, this this ownership right here. So this is the big fifty dollar double up.
10:57So nine hundred and nine entries. This was the biggest GPP that was above twenty five dollars on the whole site.
11:03Nine hundred nine entrance. These are these are the people who these are the people who read Adam's cash game review article on ETR every Sunday night.
11:11These people should fucking know better. I do. You know what Levitan?
11:15That's actually a good shout. Sixty six percent Gibbs is the worst ownership in the history of the big fifty dollar double up.
11:21I've never seen people play worse than this. He was our best value by a mile.
11:26He was also minus four fifty to score anytime touchdown minus four fifty to score in the anytime touchdown market.
11:32And like, yeah, he was easy to fit. So, I mean, yeah.
11:35Who do we who do we think the culprit was?
11:38What what what optimizer? What optimizer? Who's the culprit?
11:41Amon Ra. I mean, well, I'll say the Blitz.
11:44The Blitz as well. I didn't see. I was going to say I found our.
11:48Hardy didn't play Gibbs. I found our I found our culprit.
11:51The Blitz dot com. Amon Ra St. Amon Ra St.
11:54Brown and Luther Burden over Kendrick Bourne and Jameer Gibbs.
11:57There's your there's your culprit. I think that's why.
12:00I don't I think it's a lot of people even in that fifty dollar single entry.
12:05I guarantee there's people on their phone taking a dump and putting in lineups in the fifty dollar single entry double up.
12:11You think there are phone shitter bros, dude? How do they even find that contest?
12:16No, dude, there was a there was a build that had Amon Ra and Emmanuel Wilson over.
12:21Oh, we're going to buddy. That's called this is called a dramatic reveal.
12:24I've been saving the Emmanuel Wilson discussion. Yeah. Yeah, I I think like these kind of slates are fine for for double ups.
12:31Seeing this Gibbs 66 percent makes me wish that I had played more doubles.
12:35But typically when I think it's so obvious, like I'm going to play as many heads to heads.
12:41No, this this should be the worst type of slate for double ups.
12:45Exactly. Now, I don't think I don't think ever the three of us have all played the same team.
12:50Me, Nate and Sammy all played the same team.
12:53I truly I mean, maybe it's happened once or twice.
12:56I don't I don't think so, though. And then we just straight up one V one.
13:00Do you love a tan? And boy, did we run fucking hot because Manny Wilson was set to with his usage.
13:07Absolutely smoke Braylon Allen in that game. But yeah, this does not get there because.
13:11No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. This is not a Braylon Allen got lucky.
13:16Braylon Allen is a legitimately better rusher. Agreed. Like that.
13:19That is true. Yeah, that's definitely Braylon Allen legit had like eight missed tackles for us or something today.
13:24He was unbelievable. Yeah. But like, yeah, he got 24.
13:27But so he's a much better rusher. I mean, this is not a.
13:31But this is not a Nate. I listen to the show like as much as I possibly can.
13:36This is this is not a talent question when we're talking about one V ones.
13:41And by the way, if you want to put my team up against your team and then hide the players, you'll see
13:47everybody can see the one V one that we had.
13:50We had the exact same team, except I played Manny Wilson.
13:54You guys played Braylon Allen. I have three reasons or maybe four that I played Braylon Allen.
13:59I'm curious your guys take on these four reasons.
14:01I played Manny Wilson over Braylon Allen. First team level four, like Seahawks are going to be good.
14:07They're going to be competent. They're going to be 32 plays last week.
14:10The Jets are not like the Jets had 32 plays last week.
14:14Second, at the time that we went to lock, I was not sure that George Helani was going to be active.
14:20Our projection had Braylon and Emmanuel Wilson dead even with Helani in.
14:24If Helani gets ruled out, we would have had Emmanuel Wilson at least a couple more points clear of Braylon Allen.
14:30Third, there was talk during the week that they wanted to use Isaiah Davis more last week.
14:35However, Isaiah, they only got 32 snaps off. Isaiah Davis didn't get to play a lot.
14:40And lastly, for the late swap, bro, Davis is like the king of over late swapping.
14:44This was the reason. You get the optionality if you play.
14:48So I still think, I still think Emmanuel Wilson was right.
14:51And if that fucking punter catches the football, you guys are sucking my cock right now.
14:56You guys aren't gloating. If the punter catches the football, Braylon finishes with 12.
15:00He got the 100-yard bonus and the touchdown because the ball went through the punter's head.
15:04I see Braylon Allen getting 24 carries. 24 carries.
15:07He still went out the bonus, Levitan. He did not get the bonus.
15:11He would not. They would have been in pass mode.
15:14No, no, no. They would have been in pass mode because they were going to punt the ball deep into the jet
15:20zone and they would have been passing. Yeah, you're right.
15:23They were down. They were down. No. Yes. This is a bad take.
15:27At the end of the day, Braylon Allen at 5,400 with 24 rushing attempts and four targets and you faded him.
15:33No, no, no. This is one of those weeks.
15:36This is a week where it's, I don't know who came up with this, but it's a prove it week in cash.
15:42This is just let your opponents make a mistake.
15:45I came up with that. How many touches did Emmanuel Wilson have, Nate?
15:49How many opportunities did Emmanuel Wilson have? It, I mean, two yards to carry.
15:53Two yards to carry, maybe. 20 carries and two catches.
15:56This was a better. How many would he have gotten if Kalani?
16:00Missed tackles, forced. We're playing cash. You're talking about missed tackles, forced in a one game sample of running back.
16:05Let's say the Jets get smoked in this game and Deshaun Watson's been playing great.
16:10Let's say the Jets get smoked in this game or let's say the punter catches it.
16:15Getting there with an 11 ball from Braylon Allen.
16:17No, you let the Jets run, or the Jets running bad last week with what?
16:2232 total plays. And, and that, that was just clearly an anomaly.
16:25The Jets aren't not going to have that. Oh, of course.
16:28Volume this week. Oh, I agree. What happens if George Kalani gets ruled out?
16:33Then, then what do you say? Kalani's ruled out.
16:35We're on the wrong side of it. I will say Wilson ran a little bit good in game because he did get
16:42benched and then Halani played worse than he did.
16:44He got benched for fumbling. I mean, frankly, like I say this a lot about a lot of players.
16:50I do think George Kalani's probably the worst running back in the NFL.
16:54Like if you, if you think about, so, so there are 96 running backs, right?
16:58Cause 32 teams each have three running backs. Halani's probably 96 of 96.
17:02It's him or Damian Pierce. It's very close. Um, between, between the two of them who, who is, uh, legitimately worse.
17:08I thought about playing Wilson, but to the late swap thing, the issue with late swap is who you don't even need
17:15it because no one played in the early game.
17:17So I was like, you're, you're, you're not actually getting any optionality because you, I guess, uh, so in our lineup, the
17:24early guys were, um, if you, if you don't include Braylon Allen, our early guys were the jets and swift and jets.
17:30And you wouldn't have gotten enough information off that.
17:33I mean, I guess if the jets got like one point, maybe you would think about doing something.
17:38I mean, there was 30% of the field that had the zero from Roman Wilson.
17:43If you played, okay, listen, dude, if you played Roman Wilson and cash, you got no mojo, dude, you got zero mojo.
17:49No, no, none, none. I can see it in tournaments, but if you played Roman Wilson and cash, knowing who Jeremy Bernard is, you got no mojo.
17:57I would have played, I would have played Jeremy.
18:00Um, I had a Roman, I think in, in cash.
18:03Yeah. I thought Roman was the best argument for Roman was not like a data driven one at all.
18:09It was that Aaron Rogers has some liking to Roman Wilson that he does not have the Jeremy Bernard.
18:14That was a really thin argument considering sample size on the Roman Wilson stuff.
18:18So yeah, I, I didn't, you know, I don't think Roman Wilson was as bad as, as you make it out to
18:25be, but yeah, I mean, I'm obviously I put the boring side.
18:28I got, I got saved. I will say I did get saved a little bit.
18:33I wanted to play Antonio Williams over Kendrick Bourne with no Stefan digs and with McLaurin on the snap count.
18:39And I, I a hundred percent would have done it without all the weather.
18:43I, I a hundred percent would have played Antonio Williams overboard.
18:46Well, not a hundred percent. I would have liked to have played Antonio Williams.
18:50And I don't even know. I mean, I can look how many routes he ran.
18:55Sorry. I just looked up the Braylon Allen routes.
18:57Braylon Allen ran 28 routes to Emmanuel Wilson's 14.
19:00Yeah. And I thought there was some variance in that, in that they had literally talked to me about getting Isaiah Davis more, more work, you know?
19:08And so I agree with you. I thought that was the most likely case that Braylon was going to be full blown
19:14workhorse, but not a hundred percent, you know? So yeah, I, you just to be serious for a minute though, do you take some of the Braylon Allen?
19:23Like we haven't seen him in a legitimate workhorse role in the NFL yet.
19:27Like his talent is still a question where we know the reason, Nate, the reason isn't good at football, right?
19:33How many, how many scoring opportunities do you think there are for Seattle in a game versus jets in a game?
19:39How many inside the 10 carries inside the five carries are there for Emmanuel Wilson typically on average versus a jets team?
19:45I mean, it showed in what happened in the game because he didn't even have a good game and he still scored
19:52because Seattle is just going to have so many more like the jets, the jets barely won this game against the awful Browns in the rain.
19:59I mean, I'm with Nate. And then I think Braylon Allen is way better than Emmanuel Wilson.
20:04Oh, so am I. The team level context, the Isaiah Davis quote was pretty interesting.
20:09Shout out to our boys at Mike nuggets. Cause they had the video of it, but it wasn't.
20:14So it wasn't them saying like, Oh, we don't want to play Braylon.
20:18But it was literally like the, I think the exact quote from who's there.
20:22I see Frank Reich. It was like, none of our drives were long enough to get Isaiah Davis in the game, which is like, Oh shit.
20:30I mean, that is, that's so dark that you can't have a drive long enough to play your second running back at all.
20:37But like, to me, you know, we, like me specifically, I become enamored with the talent for all these guys.
20:43And like, I've been waiting for a spot to jam Braylon Allen, like his literal whole career.
20:48So I was, it was pretty easy for me to get him in here.
20:52And that's totally fair. Again, I thought it was, we had the exact same projection on these guys, literally the exact same.
20:58So I, you know, obviously I thought Braylon Allen was, was a really good play also.
21:03So, I mean, yeah, like on a one week, on a one week sample, I don't worry about talent in a one season sample.
21:10I worry about talent a lot in a dynasty setting.
21:13I worry about talent massively, you know, but I'm surprised that you guys are coming at me with the talent argument.
21:19I'm not, I'm not really coming at it. I mean, we literally had, because they were the same price and they, it's
21:26because they are the same price and they projected for similar like workloads.
21:29And so I do think at this point, talent should be a needle mover.
21:34And we did have the, we did have the jets defense too.
21:37Uh, which also correlates like a little bit, like the jets defense is going to be a pretty bad play.
21:43And, and I did think, I mean, Braylon, it's funny cause he literally didn't catch a pass at all.
21:49He did run a bunch of routes, but I did think he could contribute as a pass catcher.
21:54I mean, frankly, we saw, he just ran so bad last week that it was like the only thing for him was upside.
22:01The overall team volume was so low last week.
22:03It was like, that was clearly an anomaly. There's only upside where Emmanuel Wilson is like priced for inefficient offense.
22:09And if Braylon will, if Braylon gets any efficiency, I mean, it's just, well, clearly that's why we had them with the
22:16same projection, you know, like clearly that we, you know, we were projecting 32 plays.
22:20We have also, I, it is worth noting. We have seen this exact scenario before Brees got hurt last year and Braille
22:27mound and Isaiah Davis were in a legitimate timeshare that the difference this year is that Isaiah Davis got hurt or banged
22:33up at some point in training camp. And they must have just viewed him as being like pretty significantly behind Braylon Allen
22:40in a way that they, cause remember there was, there was a spot at some point last year where Braylon Allen got
22:46played in cash and was in like legitimately like a straight up timeshare.
22:50I don't remember what week probably was the first week after Brees got out, but like, it's, it's not like it's, it's a never before seen spot here.
22:58So the good news is all four of us won.
23:01So, you know, it's a happy day. Yeah. People, you know, that's not, no one, no one wanted this.
23:07This is, this is for sure. The worst outcome for this show was that we all just like easily won, like with
23:13no sweat in any way, shape or form. Like as soon as the jets like cracked like 12 points, it was like, Oh, okay.
23:20Well this slate's over. Cause Roman Wilson had zero Antonio Williams sucked.
23:24And the jets defense was like, you had to have it.
23:27And so it was, I mean, look at, look at the.
23:30Ownerships for set, 83% swift, 83% Braylon 31, Michael Wilson, 84 born 40% tray or six like, like straight up, like no sweat.
23:37So, uh, apologize to the people I, the people love the, the shows that people love the most on, on this is
23:44when I lose and Nate and Sammy win. Um, and replacing that with me losing and Levitan and Nate winning would have
23:50been an all timer for the people. So I'm, I'm apologetic that we were not able to get there.
23:56Yeah. It's, it's a bummer, but I will say the good news is half games are not dead and we still have
24:02many weeks of profitability in front of us and people are going to play this bad.
24:07So I don't know. I don't know. I don't know what, I mean, these lineups are Gibbs should have been 90%.
24:13I don't know. I don't know. I think McBride ownership is almost worse because tight end was such a very clear, like
24:20these ownerships are like, it feels like still 2022.
24:22Like this is crazy. Yeah. I mean, we had McBride like in value, like three clear of any other tight end.
24:29You really, rarely, rarely, rarely ever see that at tight end.
24:32Yeah. Um, all right. So we can go to our GPP stuff now.
24:36And I actually was maybe in a semi interesting spot.
24:39So I'm curious your guys thought on this. So I was dead to win after the 1 PM games.
24:44Cause I played a Bayesian team. So I had Bayesian Jalen Warren, Deandre Swift, Matthew golden, Luther burden, and the Titans defense at lock.
24:51Lock. What was left in my lineup must've been, it would have, so it would have been Michael Wilson, uh, a Rondé Gadsden and Jameer Gibbs.
24:59So I swapped from Michael Wilson to waddle. I swapped from Gadsden to Kittle and I swapped from Gibbs to St.
25:05Brown. I think I, I think that, and it was, this was like a 14, 15% semi R.O.Y.
25:10team before lock. Like it was, it was like fine, but not, I just wanted to play it.
25:16Frankly, I just really wanted to do a Bayesian burden with the golden bring back.
25:20Those were, those were all my want plays there.
25:23Would, would you guys have swapped that? Or would you have just kept Gibbs for the men cash?
25:28You're asking, you're asking the, you're asking the wrong guy, but I don't think you were really drawing live to win after your start anyway.
25:36For sure. I for sure was not drawing live.
25:38So, so shouldn't you be going for the main cash no matter what then?
25:42That's what, so like, um, nerdy tenor has done a bunch of like work on this of like, Oh, what should I do in these late swaps?
25:50And he found, he told me that one of the most surprising things he found was in this spot where basically they
25:57were like, where like 2018 DFS would have been, Oh dude, you got a swap or whatever.
26:02But the sim is actually saying all your equity is in men caching.
26:06So you should probably stay. I, the issue that I thought was, I thought Kittle could have been a massive differential.
26:12Like I thought Kittle could have gotten like 30 in this spot and you normally are not able to swap to a Titan that can get that many.
26:20But the, the swap, uh, was obviously bad because my field aware ROI here was negative 10% after the swap, which is,
26:27so I gave up what from 14% to 10%.
26:29So I gave up a good, uh, I guess if you do that math of a hundred bucks, I gave, I, what
26:36I gave up like 47 bucks of equity or something there.
26:39It's, it's so crazy to me. Like I, you know, when I listened to your guys show, like I would, people ask me for advice all the time.
26:47I, I, a lot of people I tell you guys, I say, you guys are under swapping.
26:52You're not swapping enough. I want to scream to Davis.
26:55You are swapping way too much in everything. Cash tournaments, everything like, well, there's already been one week this year.
27:01I cost myself a win, but I should have just stay.
27:04If I just stayed, I just easily cash everything.
27:07And I cost the Kyler versus Shuck swap, but you might be the only DFS player on earth that over swaps everybody else under swaps.
27:14You might be the only one that actually over swaps on earth.
27:18Nate, would, would, is that, was that a stay put for you?
27:21I would have stayed put. I mean, yeah, I think you do over swap and I think the field, I don't know.
27:28I, at that point I would just try to get men.
27:31Did either of you guys do Bajan stuff at all?
27:34No, I only played three teams and they were all Brissette.
27:37I mean, I can talk about why, but I, I actually only played three tournaments in there and they were all a percent.
27:44And the other thing about this is like, I actually went for a full fade in tournaments on swift, like this 50%
27:51on swift, given he was on the injury report this week, there were some comments about Roshan Johnson too.
27:56Like, and I thought swift was an awesome play obviously, but 53% when you have Jalen Warren, Gibbs, Braylon, Emmanuel Wilson, Aaron Jones, Chase Brown, JT, CMC.
28:04I didn't really want to play 50% DeAndre Swift, I guess, you know, would be my biggest problem with this lineup.
28:10My, the, the bet, my favorite play of the day was Warren, but it, I did not get saved enough because I cannot stop with Luther burden.
28:18I can't get, and you know what? It's going to happen again next week.
28:23Cause I'm going to say, dude, he got, you got 13 targets, like the volumes, like it's going to, I'm going to,
28:29I already know I can, you could fast forward to next week.
28:33Luther burden is going to have 12 points and I'm going to be like, no, dude, you guys don't understand the volume.
28:39He's so good. The volume is so good. A dude's a so bad.
28:43Caleb's going to be back next week too. In like some ways.
28:46I mean, obviously after watching Baygent today, like please never, ever let me see Tyson Baygent play football again.
28:52Like that's it, dude. It's definitely an upgrade over Baygent.
28:55I would say for burden, it might not. I don't know.
28:58We haven't seen the Caleb burden connection workout, but case Keenum burden, definitely have a connection.
29:03Even, even today. I don't think burden had any of his work.
29:07He had, he had, he got, he got 33, he got 33 yards and six targets in the last quarter and a
29:13half that, um, that Keenum played, but yeah, uh, whatever smoke.
29:16And also, I'm also curious, your thoughts on this too, Adam, the Titans defense at 12% because they were the last defense you could like squint.
29:24That's so bad. That's also terrible of me. Like just play the jets, dude.
29:28Just find it. Get the 600 bucks to play the jets.
29:31I know. I think I did that too on, on Titans on one of my teams.
29:36Um, yeah, it's not great. I will say Titans on Fandle because commanders were 3,300 and Titans were 31.
29:42Titans were not as owned on Fandle. Obviously commanders smash them, but, uh, or beat them.
29:46But yeah, I mean, obviously playing the like desperation defense in tournaments is something I try not to do, but I think I did it this week too.
29:55If I look at my team. It's so, it's so hard not to do it because like we were just so used
30:01to being like, yeah, well defense dude, you know, it doesn't, it doesn't matter.
30:05It's like, you know, it's unpredictable. You could, there was, you know, uh, at Stroud is good for a meatball sub here and there, you know?
30:13So it is what it is. All right. Levitan.
30:16This is your team. That was pretty good in the power sweep.
30:19Got up to 29th. Jacoby percent, 30%. Manny Wilson, 27%.
30:22Jalen Warren, 21. Justin Jefferson fucking love it. I, that was my, my other team I played was a Kyler Jefferson and I should have just played percent.
30:30Uh, Christian Watson also golf clap there and fucking neighbors.
30:33So you talk to me about the neighbors play.
30:36Cause I, I, I couldn't get there and I really wanted to.
30:39It's just rain fud. Everybody. Oh, Adam, it's raining.
30:42There's no way they can score any points in the game.
30:45There's some drizzling going on. I mean, 6,300 for Malik neighbors.
30:49I am concerned about Malik neighbors long-term. Like still, he legit seems banged up.
30:53If they lose, they're going to go to JJ McCarthy.
30:56But my gosh, while he's healthy now at 6,300, that's crazy.
30:59But the thing I want to talk about with this team was one of like the things that Leoni talked about this
31:05week on established million and dink was like, how can you play Cardinals Detroit in a smart way?
31:11One way was not doing the Brissette double. So I played my worst team was a Brissette Wilson skinny.
31:16My best team was a Brissette McBride skinny, and then not doing a bring back.
31:21Now, you know, maybe I should have, but if you play Arizona Brissette without Gibbs, you're immediately getting unique.
31:26And then my other goal was to find upside that can hopefully beat Gibbs with the wide receiver position.
31:32So Jefferson Watson neighbors. I was like, man, just let these guys beat Jameer Gibbs and I'll be cooking.
31:38Jameer Gibbs obviously shoved a 40 ball down my gullet.
31:41But like if Jameer Gibbs has 20 here, you know, that's a whole different story.
31:45Obviously, I wish I could have the Roman Wilson thing back there in the flex.
31:49But what did you guys have him for projected ownership?
31:52Which one? Roman Wilson. Let me check. Because our stuff, our stuff kind of liked him too.
31:57Our stuff that I don't, I don't fully X out plays all that often.
32:02The cheap wide receiver that our stuff liked was Malik Washington.
32:05And I was just like, fuck, no, no chance, dude.
32:08I'm so out on that. We had 14.8% Roman Wilson in small field on DK and Malik Washington 13.9%.
32:13But yeah, you know, Roman Wilson, we only had for 9.5 points.
32:17And 19.4 ceiling. We had, we actually had Malik Washington for better.
32:2012.5 base, 23.1 ceiling. I just, I, I, I, I'm good.
32:24I think I'm just not playing any Dolphins this year.
32:27I think I'm straight. I'm not going to play Caleb Douglas.
32:30I'm not going to play Chris Bell. I'm dropping, like I drafted a bunch of Malik Willis and like these FFPC main events and stuff.
32:37And I, you know, Mahomes is on by, so I was scrambling for quarterback.
32:41And I, I, I think I ended up playing Malik Wilson one.
32:45I think I started Beijing over him and another, but like, I just, I'm not doing it.
32:50I'm out on the Dolphins experience. They're not playing competitive football.
32:53I'm out. I'm not doing it. They're the least talented team in the, in the, maybe in the history of football.
32:59I mean, they're just so bad. And people are, people are still trying to defend A-Chan as a second round pick.
33:06I don't want to go off on a tangent here, but gosh, I mean.
33:10Oh no, come on, please give it, give it to Chess Liam.
33:13Tell him fucking A-Chan was terrible. I mean, we said this before the season that Devon A-Chan was the worst second round
33:20pick I could ever remember in the history of fantasy football.
33:23Like by far. I generally speaking, I I'll tell you one that was close that I was on.
33:28And I think I learned my lesson. Do you remember the year that, that David Wilson was coming off an insane year?
33:35Giants David Wilson. No, sorry. Not David Wilson. David Johnson.
33:38Oh, Cardinals David Johnson. Yeah. Cardinals David Johnson. And he ends up finishing the season running back nine, but it was like
33:44the worst, most unusable, miserable slog to the finish line.
33:47And I think I learned my lesson there, which is like, it doesn't matter how good the running back is.
33:53Cause David Johnson, kids are too young to remember, but like he was the, the absolute goat of goats at the time.
34:00But like the team was so bad that there was just nothing that could be done about it.
34:05Yeah. So I'm, I, I, I was lighter on, on A-Chan as well.
34:09And then fucking Christian Watson, dude. I mean, again, I just like with the burden thing, I cannot stop with Matthew Golden.
34:15I can't. I mean, I think Matthew Golden is really good.
34:18Christian Watson is like a crazy difference maker. So yeah.
34:21I mean, I thought all three of those wide receivers had a chance to be Gibbs and that was like the whole
34:28idea of, of the, of the lineup. Obviously I think I should have probably had Brissette double McBride and, and born, but
34:34I was so adamant on playing the skinny to try to be unique.
34:38Maybe that was bad. Yeah. Well, they're, they're the people are, people are asking in the chat.
34:43They're saying how much money. I wouldn't have won.
34:46It doesn't matter. I wouldn't have won. Okay. The, the interesting thing to me is the, the neighbors play.
34:51Like I almost would have like, if I'm betting on neighbors, like Winston, Winston would be the play over Brissette.
34:57You get all the ownership fade and you get like, I mean, neighbors can't get there without, without Winston doing it.
35:04And so, yeah, I don't know. I, I probably, that'd be the one thing I would have done in this lineup is
35:10if you're making the neighbors play, go to Winston.
35:13I think that's fair. And also for us, like likely was simming off the charts.
35:17Like one of the best simming plays that we had was Isaiah likely.
35:21So yeah, that would have been a good team.
35:24Yeah. Well, hand, hand up to me, man. I w I was scared of the rain.
35:28I was scared of the rain, Adam. I said, Oh no.
35:32Oh no. This wasn't even the worst rain. I mean, the jets Cleveland was, was the worst rain.
35:37This was like light rain off and on. Like, yeah.
35:40That's why, that's why Adam decided not to play Brillen Allen.
35:43And Hey, it was sun sun was shining. Oh no, dude.
35:46The ETR fan voice found me. They found me.
35:49I hate it. They hate it. Uh, okay. Nate sent me a lineup that, uh, he ran bad at the end here.
35:55Where is it? I just had it. Oh, here you said, I just put it in the chat.
36:01I just had it. I just had it pulled up.
36:04Um, I gotta say, I give this lineup. I give this lineup a hundred out of 10 for originality brother.
36:10Drake may 6% jail and Warren 22 braille now in 24% JSN 13%.
36:13Demario Douglas 1.8 F didn't fucking chism. The third 1.4% Hunter Henry 7.7.
36:17Jameer Gibbs in the saints defense. They'll never respect my goat enough, man.
36:21They'll never ever dude. I don't care that F didn't chism only got 10.
36:25F didn't chism, uh, a true none. No, a hundred out of 10, Nate, a hundred out of 10 for F didn't chism.
36:32And the, the crazy thing about this lineup, Nate is if anyone else did Demario Douglas or F didn't chism, I bet
36:39my last dollar, my very last dollar, they did it to get Amon Ross, St.
36:43Brown, Trey McBride and Gibbs in together in a team.
36:46They're like, I got to save some money. I got to do whatever I can to get all these Detroit, Arizona pieces.
36:52And, um, only Gibbs from that game in here.
36:55I mean, just, you gotta, you gotta hand it to him and you get what you got cocked at the end, uh, in first place here by what?
37:03Uh, I'm literally watching this and I'm like, I need 0.08 points.
37:07And this is the last drive with Seattle. And I'm like, okay, just get me a, get me, get me a JSN target.
37:14Get me a JSN target. He breaks, he breaks containment.
37:17He gets it. He jumps. And I'm like, this is easy money.
37:20And he drops it. I've never seen a more frustrating JSN drop in my entire life.
37:25And I was like, he was clearly concussed, Nate.
37:28That's the thing is he, he was clearly concussed and should have been pulled from the game.
37:33But, uh, yeah, it wasn't a concussion. Wasn't it his ankle?
37:36Yeah. His ankle was banged up before, but he got smoked right, right in his shoulder pad on his last catch of the game.
37:43Uh, what I thought this was, what tournament was like, it was a 20 max.
37:47Like, uh, what was it? Uh, the NFL 40 K front door 20 entry max.
37:52Oh wow. 11,000 people. Jesus, man. My God. Second place by 08.
37:55I was literally like, I thought I had that one in the bank, but it's second.
38:00Anyway, that 11 K is incredible. That was more of just a fun lineup that almost finished well, but I would rather break down my Davis.
38:08Let's send you the, uh, actual one that we should.
38:11Well, here I have the, I have the contest Sims pulled up for I've got, I can check the two, the 200 K red zone.
38:18I can check the 400 K spy, the 75 K red zone and the 50 K red zone.
38:23If any of your teams in that are interesting, you do that.
38:27These are the only contests that I have up with that are cashed.
38:31Oh, well pull the, um, the one I just sent in the private chat, the touchdown team, the 20 K Kyler Murray, Aaron Jones.
38:38This is the fucking team level onslaughts, Nate. I mean, it's so good.
38:42Deandre Swift, Trey Harris, Justin Jefferson, Malik Washington, Trey McBride and Jalen Warren.
38:45So, okay. I I'm curious, Nate, was this like conscious plan of you going into the week?
38:50Like, all right, I'm going to be lighter on Detroit, Arizona than the field.
38:55Or these are just some of the lineups that were interesting to look at now.
38:59No, I had to do some intentional things because I like the typical lineups that I built were way, we're just going to be way too chalky.
39:07Cause all I do is onslaughts and it's like, everybody was doing the onslaughts of that game.
39:12And so it was like, so I had to change some things this week and, and try to get different.
39:18And so what I was trying to do was essentially just refuse Detroit, Arizona onslaughts.
39:22And I was only going to play anybody from that game, not in an, in an onslaught.
39:27And so I was trying to find another game that would just go off anything.
39:32So whether it be Drake may, whether it be Kyler Murray, um, I tried to get different in a lot of different
39:38ways, but obviously still having like McBride and Gibbs, I wasn't going to go with a bunch of like the secondary chalk
39:45pieces, like the Jameson Williams and Laporta stuff. But even though that turned out okay, but yeah, so this was an intentional lineup.
39:52I, I mean, obviously with Trey Harris and some other things didn't go my way, but I thought the Warren ownership was like.
39:58Warren ownership was crazy low compared to Swift, Adam.
40:01That, that, that seems like just cause was it cause Warren wasn't mentioned in content all week?
40:06Cause we thought Rico was playing. That's exactly it.
40:09I was going to talk about this on the, on the solo pod.
40:13We see this every single time there's late news and there was so much injury news.
40:17People were like overwhelmed by it. Rico gets ruled out and it doesn't register with people how good a play Jalen Warren is.
40:24And, and really interesting that we haven't even talked about this yet.
40:28Um, we all thought until 10 30 this morning, we were going to be able to play Mike Washington jr.
40:33Uh, and, and then turns out that you were not able to, although this is very, this was very bizarre.
40:39Gente clearly is injured in this game and is like limping around and they gave a bunch of touches to Dylan Lowby,
40:46including his first NFL touchdown be cut. And this is so funny because like, he's from there.
40:51Cause like he's, he, he went to, he went to the university of New Hampshire.
40:55That can't be. They were like, what other reason would there be?
40:59I don't know. But I was, I had a note to myself to look into that because it makes zero sense whatsoever.
41:05I bet, I bet you look into it. I bet you'll find an article on mass live.
41:10That's like, Oh yeah. Dylan Lowby's whole high school was there.
41:14His grandma was there. He, he got, uh, he gave, he gave his touchdown.
41:18I, you know, it had to be something where they thought it led to like a better pass.
41:23I'll text him and ask him. I'll say, was that the game plan?
41:27Or it was like Mike Washington banged up. I'll, I'll literally ask him.
41:31Yes, please. Okay. But the other thing I liked about this lineup was I thought Justin Jefferson in this spot was going to come like super under owned.
41:39And I thought like if he beats Amon Ra and like, yeah, I just felt really good about the Jefferson thing.
41:45So all right. Jefferson Tyler, I thought was, was let's see if my, do we think my Jefferson Kyler lineup simmed?
41:51Well, this will be, this will, this is a good sweat for me to figure out if I actually, um, played good.
41:58What was it in? It was in one of the red zones.
42:01I'm going to try and find it right now.
42:04I don't remember which one it was in. Uh, not in that one I played, I played, uh, I'd have to go well in the contest just locked.
42:12So, or the, they just switched over to completed.
42:15Uh, there you go. Nope. Negative 12% sim ROI.
42:18Uh, Kyler Murray, Deandre Swift, Braylon Allen, Justin Jefferson.
42:20See, this is, this is how you can tell I'm bad, dude.
42:24Cause I played Michael Wilson on this team. Totally.
42:26When you go Kyler, you gotta go. You gotta go with the full Aaron.
42:31Uh, Antonio Williams, Gadsden, Jameer Gibbs, and the fucking chargers defense.
42:34I do put me in jail for playing the chargers defense.
42:37This team, this team sucks. This seems really bad.
42:40Antonio Williams was not a good play. Okay. Gadsden.
42:42I did not catch this until the game literally started, but Kalar is back.
42:47I heard no reporting on this. The, the main chargers beat writer just quit his job to go be a beat writer for, uh, Adam Levitan's Philadelphia 76ers.
42:55So I missed this entirely. I would have had zero Gadsden in any format.
42:59I, I, I had no idea that Charlie Kalar was back from literally breaking his arm three weeks ago.
43:05Yeah. They listed him questionable. And like when there's a week with this many injuries, it just, people just don't talk about it.
43:11But yeah, I knew he was questionable. I knew it was a game time decision.
43:16Yeah. Hey, negative, negative 12% field aware ROI is not that bad.
43:19Negative 36% SIM ROI is pretty bad though. Dude, not, not ideal.
43:23You can't be playing that. I mean, Gadsden, Gadsden with all the receiver injuries, no Kalar.
43:28I'd probably do it again. I think, but, but once, once Kalar was in, he becomes, he becomes immediately unplayable.
43:33Like he's a, he's an absolute stone cold, uh, zero.
43:36Yeah. Uh, all right guys, there we go. We did it.
43:40We solved it. Levitan. Thank you for joining us.
43:42Uh, thank you for having me guys. I love the show.
43:46Keep it up. Keep the cash game alive. And, uh, yeah, I'm happy to fill in, uh, anytime I can, if you
43:52guys want me, as long as we keep the, uh, cash game torch going for people who like to play the best plays.
43:59Yeah. Play, play the best plays. Uh, all right guys, we will be back.
44:03Uh, well, I'll be back with all you guys tomorrow and then we'll be back next week.
44:08Uh, shout out, shout out to Sammy for touching grass.
44:11What a fucking loser. Can you imagine touching grass?
44:14Can you imagine touching grass on Sunday? I think he, I think he said he's at a concert.
44:19On a, on a Sunday, dude, what are you?
44:22I can't, I can't, I literally can't fathom. I cannot even imagine what that would be like, brother.
44:27No, no shot. No shot for me, man. Uh, all right, let's get this Matt Hibner first touchdown.
44:32Make me a cool grand and I will see you guys back tomorrow.
