Jason Moore
Friday, October 10th the fantasy footballers Podcast. Jason Moore, Mike Wright, Andy Holloway, welcome in one and all. Lots to get to today. Thank you for joining us. Thank you for subscribing and following the show. Thank you for watching the show. Over on YouTube, we got a scat trick last night.
Mike Wright
It was he.
Andy Holloway
He is my favorite.
Jason Moore
He's your. What's the thing in Harry Potter when you have a My Patronus. Your Patronus? Not Horcrux. Your patronus is Cam Scatter.
Andy Holloway
Boo. Yeah, like you would see the I cast the spell, he comes out and just starts running into walls.
Jason Moore
This is like, we're from Arizona. We all watched him play at Arizona State. 104 players were drafted ahead of Cam Scatterboo in this draft. And I'm not saying he's, you know, Barry Sanders. We're not saying he's the next greatest thing in the entire earth. But it's a tragedy that 104 players went ahead of him because because of how productive he was at the college level.
Andy Holloway
1700 rushing yards on the ground and 600 receiving yards through the air. Those are numbers that only like, Christian McCaffrey type of collegiate performances have ever done. And he did it. And then everyone's like, nah, we're good.
Mike Wright
It was so if you followed the Dynasty pod at all over this off season, it was, you know, for me. I loved Trevo Henderson the whole time. I wasn't as hot and bothered by Hampton as other people, but it was like, Scatter Boo. I'm putting him at three in my running man rankings until the NFL tells me I'm not allowed to. They don't want Cam Scatter Boo. And then the NFL did and I was like, oh, man. Fourth round behind Traces.
Jason Moore
Like how behind Bashaw Tutin.
Mike Wright
And it felt like such a. It was so deflating that the NFL and the NFL gets things wrong, obviously. But they're. When it comes to running backs, it's the opportunity that when you're a day three guy, the NFL could be so wrong about you. But when. Because they've drafted you there, they have other guys in their plans who are ahead of you and you have. Things have to break. Right. And the Tracy injury came at just the right time for Camp Scatterboo.
Jason Moore
Yeah. There's a lot that we could talk about with that situation. I'll start by praising Jason for not only being completely in on Scatter Boo this week. Again, the Philadelphia matchup on Thursday night. But like you persuaded me on the show. Nice to be in on Scatter Boo because you had walked through the storyline of the opportunities and how massive they are. Then we got word Jalen Carter was not going to play and Tyrone Tracy got a few snaps. But it's a. It's a heart and soul thing for this team. It's. It's changed the entire landscape of the way their team.
Mike Wright
Jackson Dart is a huge part of the equation too.
Andy Holloway
Of he's great.
Mike Wright
If Russell Wilson is the quarterback of the Giants, I do not believe that Cam Scatter Boo is putting up numbers.
Jason Moore
Because he's not near the goal line.
Mike Wright
Exactly. Like the offense is so much worse when Russ is playing. And so it was the unknown. Is Jackson Dart going to be good in the NFL? Looked like it in preseason. And so far through three games we've had two electric performances.
Andy Holloway
There's no impressive.
Jason Moore
There's no Malik. There's no Malik.
Mike Wright
Yeah.
Jason Moore
He doesn't know Darius Slayton.
Andy Holloway
They were Jordan Humphrey. They were hyped up on the Crayon eater himself. Cam Scatter Boo is now like he has. I forgot about. He is now such a. Like part of the personality of this.
Mike Wright
Yes.
Andy Holloway
Of the hope of the.
Jason Moore
Him and Jackson Darp.
Andy Holloway
Yeah.
Mike Wright
Both.
Andy Holloway
Both of them.
Mike Wright
They have transformed how. How the country feels about the Giants.
Andy Holloway
Is no longer allowed to eat into Cam Scatter Boo's workload in a massive way. Now, not to say that they won't get him more involved than his first game back, but. But, like, it's done. It's done. Scatter Boo is their leading guy, and then they'll spell him when they need to with. With whoever else.
Jason Moore
He was the human equivalent of a smelling salt.
Andy Holloway
Yes.
Jason Moore
For the team. And it was.
Andy Holloway
What a psychopath.
Jason Moore
Yeah. In the best way.
Andy Holloway
In the best way. The quotes I was spending last night on Twitter. Ph, yes. The quotes from his teammates. They all are. They're not bashing him, but they are confused by him and they love him. But it's like every single one just said, he's so loud.
Jason Moore
Did you see?
Mike Wright
He's an idiot.
Andy Holloway
Yeah, he's a.
Jason Moore
Have you ever seen the famous clip when they're. They're following Arizona State onto the field and they're walking through this hallway and all the players are. It's just a normal walk onto the field, and you walk directly by a man who is just hitting his head against the wall over and over again.
Andy Holloway
I have seen that.
Jason Moore
And it's just Cam Scatterboo prepping for the game.
Andy Holloway
Yeah.
Jason Moore
It's like a little pre. CTE going on.
Mike Wright
Goodness.
Jason Moore
It was. It was a. It was wild.
Andy Holloway
You can't give CTE 2 CTE.
Jason Moore
No, no, no, you can't.
Andy Holloway
He is the human incarnation.
Jason Moore
But look, that's what they said. The C. And CTE is Cam Scatterboo.
Andy Holloway
He can no longer fail concussion tests because his permanent. His baseline is way past fail.
Jason Moore
It's compared basic. Look, I told you, when he's concussed all.
Mike Wright
He's like a math genius.
Andy Holloway
Yeah. They're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Mike Wright
You got to sit him down, Cam. Dude, you're talking about physics. What are we doing here, man?
Andy Holloway
Dude, you got to sit down. No more square roofs.
Jason Moore
Have another crayon.
Mike Wright
Yeah. Will you question. Are you willing to eat this? No.
Jason Moore
He must be, cuz I feel like we could riff on this all day. Yes. The truth is, is this was the game on Wednesday. I'm like, I'd really love to make this my almost upset, but I can't. There's no way it's going to happen. Oh, this is why the NFL is better than every other sport.
Mike Wright
Yeah.
Jason Moore
It really is. You should not have been able to double up the Eagles without Malik Neighbors. And you just.
Mike Wright
At halftime, I was like, no problem. No problem.
Andy Holloway
You still want to make that bet on the.
Mike Wright
You know, they'll come back.
Andy Holloway
The problem is the second half Eagles offense has been the, it's the worst one in the entire league right now. Like on a number of metrics they are the worst. And what's crazy is last year they were pretty good. This system that we have seen in place, like they have been winning with their great run game, their great offensive line and their great defense. If those things aren't gelling, you know they had one of their guards out and obviously Carter was out. So if they don't have this great run game and they don't have this great defense, all of a sudden you have an offense that looks uncreative.
Jason Moore
And I don't, I don't blame play calling on this one. This game was lost on a couple of bad decisions and bad plays by Jalen Hurts. You missed, you can't miss that play to Devonte Smith down the sideline.
Andy Holloway
Oh, that was free.
Mike Wright
90 yard touchdown.
Jason Moore
Look, I may, I made the touchdown guarantee. That proved to be wrong. I think AJ Brown was 6 for 80 in this game. He had opportunities around the goal line but the past to the left that got picked off that basically ended the game. I mean you get three there. The game is a one score game. Yep, there's, there's in breaking route with nobody is man to man. A.J. brown's wide open in the middle of the field like Jalen Hurts just objectively played poorly in this game. Saquon has not been able to get the running game going at all throughout the year. Yeah, it was wild because this is the sixth game in the career of Cam Scatter Boo. It's a three touchdown game for Scatter Boo. If you missed it. Saquon has never had one what 96 games played in his career. He's never had three rushing touchdowns in a game. Cam Scatter Boo has had three in his sixth game.
Mike Wright
So we just did Wednesday show was we did redraft, you know first two rounds of fantasy kind of a rest of season check in and I took Barkley at six I think and like my, my reasoning was I feel like the Eagles are safe, they're stable. They're just, they're, they're, their defense is going to be great and that's just one game after that. But when it's the giants and you're.
Jason Moore
12 for 58, what's with AJ Brown like. Like two like Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley both said that they, they met with AJ Brown this week and that the offense met together. Everybody said they met together and AJ Browns was like, no, we didn't meet well.
Andy Holloway
And it was weird because you watched.
Jason Moore
It and everybody else confirmed that it happened.
Andy Holloway
Yeah, the, the, the interviewers are trying to ask whether or not he's like just being coy about it and he. And he wasn't. He's like, I don't remember that.
Jason Moore
He's like, I don't remember that kind of smirking. And he's just like, yeah, I don't recall.
Andy Holloway
He's like, you got to ask. I don't recall. I don't remember that.
Jason Moore
It's all cute and funny and eye rolly. When you're 4 0, it's not as much when you're 4 and 2 and you've lost two in a row. And Philadelphia normally gets things figured out. They have a good head coach and structure.
Andy Holloway
But how do you feel about Saquon Barkley rest? Saquon Barkley could have and would have set the all time rushing record last year if he played in his final game. You know, he was over 2,000 yards. He was awesome. Right now we're five weeks in. He is on pace. Well, let me ask you this. Do you think he's on pace for 1,000 yards?
Mike Wright
Yes.
Andy Holloway
He's not.
Mike Wright
No.
Andy Holloway
He's on pace right now for 920 yards on the season.
Jason Moore
Yeah. I mean I wouldn't have taken him as high in the, in the redraft situation just because it's hard to have that much work. That was the narrative in the off season. Derek Henry, Saquon Barkley, a lot of work, older backs. And right now the Eagles just look worn out like the run blocking. They don't. They look like a team that has been doing it for a really, really long time that's running out of gas a little bit.
Mike Wright
Well, the next week is at Minnesota. You can run on Minnesota, so that will be very interesting. And then they get the Giants immediately at home the following week.
Jason Moore
Dallas Goddard was awesome. Nine for one, 10 and a touchdown. It's the fourth straight week, I think with a touchdown.
Mike Wright
Yeah. The. I will not deny Dallas Goddard what he's doing. But when Dallas Goddard on A team with AJ Brown and Devonte Smith and Dallas Goddard is getting 11 targets compared to nine and five for the other guys. That's.
Jason Moore
That's why you lose how you score 17 points. Yeah, he played 89% of snaps, 11 targets. He had nine targets last week. And this is the decision making.
Andy Holloway
It was exactly all last year about the Dolphins. Johnny Smith, good for you, John. You're doing you're doing great things, but your offense is not best when it runs through Jono Smith instead of Tyreek Hill. Yeah. And Jalen Waddle. And here it like, throw to your stud wide receivers who are not just, you know, eight yards and under.
Jason Moore
Well, Goddard matched his season high in touchdowns already. He's never had more than five in a season and he's got five in the last month. So Wandale ended up six for 84 and a touchdown in this game, which did not feature Darius Slayton Little, Jordan Humphrey 4 for 55. Jackson Darts line was 17 for 195 and one and he ran for a touchdown 13 for 58. There's only three quarterbacks in history who I think through the first two or three starts, 50 plus yards rushing. It was like Jalen hurts Lamar Jackson. Jackson dart.
Mike Wright
Yeah, he's. He is up there with.
Jason Moore
And he. I, I was saying he's balling out and two seconds later he was down on the field hurt. Like the way he's running it. He's going to get hurt.
Mike Wright
Yes, he will.
Jason Moore
You cannot. And he's going to get fined, in my opinion. Oh, that play for his sideline helmet. First leap, like wild leap into the opponent's face.
Andy Holloway
That wasn't the one that I thought.
Jason Moore
Oh, no, that's the one he'll get fined for.
Andy Holloway
No, he should get fined for a different one.
Jason Moore
No, the high five. He's not getting five.
Andy Holloway
That was awesome.
Jason Moore
The high five is.
Andy Holloway
That was my favorite play. I rewound it. So if you don't know one of Cam scatterbooths touchdowns, he was called short by the line judge. And one of them. Yeah, one of them. He runs in and he's got just one hand up. You know, he's standing with one hand up calling for basically the fourth down and Jackson darts over there like, yelling at him like, what? That was a touchdown. And then, and then after a minute, he just high fives the guy whose hand is up.
Jason Moore
That was awesome.
Andy Holloway
I thought you're not allowed to touch refs.
Jason Moore
If you give him a cool high five, it doesn't matter.
Mike Wright
Yeah, from. From time to time, these things slip through.
Jason Moore
Yeah, he's. He launched himself into the defender's helmet. And so I will be completely shocked if he doesn't get a fine for that one. All right, we got to move on. It's Friday.
Andy Holloway
Foot Clan Friday.
Jason Moore
Sometimes I wonder if the. The random selector just wants to make it difficult on me reading the names. Every week on Friday, we give a hundred dol to a supporter@jointhefoot.com I am.
Andy Holloway
Really trying to work out how I would pronounce.
Mike Wright
Oh, I got mine.
Andy Holloway
You got yours.
Jason Moore
Ticonicus117.
Mike Wright
I was going to go Tychonicus.
Jason Moore
Tychonicus117 it is.
Mike Wright
Sounds like a Greek hero.
Jason Moore
Whoever you are, you've won $100.
Mike Wright
Yeah. Okay.
Jason Moore
Thank you for supporting the show. $100. Fantasychamps.com To Tikonikis, the Greek God.
Andy Holloway
News and notes from around the league presented by Progressive Insurance.
Jason Moore
All right. Alvin Camara remained limited on Thursday with the ankle injury. We'll see if he continues to progress or not. Kyler Murray did not practice again.
Andy Holloway
Didn't. Camara was limited. This one is. He's not practicing at all. So if he doesn't get out there today, it will be Jacoby Brissette, which Marvin Harrison said he'd be cool with that.
Mike Wright
Kyler.
Jason Moore
Kyler. You said Camara.
Andy Holloway
I was saying Camara was limited. Kyler was completely not at practice whatsoever.
Jason Moore
Oh, wait, he's practicing today.
Andy Holloway
Okay.
Jason Moore
By the way, like the line was sitting seven and a half during the week and it hasn't moved from what I had seen. So there. It looks like he's going to play. Quentin Johnson remained limited Thursday, by the way. You want Kyler to play. I know you just booed. I know that was not really. You would like him to play for Marvin Harrison Jr. Sake and for the offense and McBride. Chuba harbor did not practice again on Thursday. It seems all but guaranteed he will miss another week. They are missing the Panthers. A pretty important offensive lineman did not practice as well, which could be a problem for the Rico Dowdle 200 yard repeat. But we'll see what happens. Wait, are you saying maybe not 200?
Mike Wright
Are you saying Rico's not going to get to 200?
Andy Holloway
I'll take the less.
Jason Moore
Yeah. Lamar Jackson did not practice again. Jose Flowers limited again. The big news that we saw this morning, like Chris Godwin is not expected to play right for the Buccaneers. And we won't have Mike Evans. We probably will not have Bucky Irving. So you're talking about just amplifying the Kate Otten opportunity at the tight end position like Big Bo. And who was that? The Emika egg. Big Boo. Would you play Joanne Johnson or Kate Otten now with Godwin out?
Mike Wright
Joanne Johnson. Oh, oh, I was. Sorry. I was. I heard Joanne Jennings in my head. I was like that's. I would still go with you on.
Jason Moore
You would go with Juwan Jason. He's your start of the week. Would you play Kate Otten or Joanne Johnson.
Andy Holloway
Oh man. Kate Otten had 814 for 81 last week.
Mike Wright
He does. I'm not saying he's a bad play.
Andy Holloway
Yeah.
Jason Moore
Who else is going to catch the ball?
Andy Holloway
I think they're both fine. I'm going to stick with Joanne Johnson.
Jason Moore
What else do we have? We have Juan Jennings returning to a limited practice. There you go Mike. Brock Purdy did not practice again on Thursday. Mac Jones limited. Ricky Pierce Law did not practice again. If you had to bet right now, I think it's going to be Mac Jones again and it's going to be.
Mike Wright
I think Jennings will play. I don't know that that would hurt your Kendrick Bourne. Yeah, it would.
Jason Moore
Xavier Worthy did not practice. He was listed on sleeper as doubtful but I don't think he's officially listed as doubtful but he is not. He did not practice Thursday after a full participation Wednesday. I think he's dealing with swelling issues. Xavier Worthy feels a little bit like a nerve.
Mike Wright
Lay off the salt man.
Jason Moore
Like a nervous play right now with like the week to week how healthy are you argument. So I don't know if Juwan Jennings is back out there. Does it change your view on Ton just by the way?
Mike Wright
No. Just because he's so beat up.
Jason Moore
Tonjas, MC Basketball or Kate Otten?
Mike Wright
I think your think your ceiling is better with Ton just of like the fluky 2 touchdown game more likely for him but floor for Kate odd and it's probably higher.

Andy Holloway
Fantasy forecast presented by Prize Picks.
Jason Moore
Yesterday we covered the Broncos, jets, the London game, Cardinals, Colts, Chargers, Dolphins, Patriots, Saints, Brown, Steelers, Cowboys, Panthers, Seahawks, Jags and the Rams Ravens game. So you can scroll back and click on that episode if you want to hear those games broken down. But why would you when you have a chance to get into a one in four Titan one in four Raiders matchup, Las Vegas minus four and a half over under 41 and a half. Okay, we're going to play this one.
Mike Wright
You're right. We have to.
Jason Moore
Schedule says if you want to argue that somebody's been worse than Cam or this year, the argument's on the other side of the field.
Andy Holloway
Yeah. Nine interceptions for Geno Smith and taking sacks like crazy. He looks just washed.
Mike Wright
It's mind blowing to me. What has happened to Geno.
Jason Moore
Yeah, I mean Geno Smith was a, I mean his passer rating the last five preceding years. 94, 103, 192, 9375 now, which is the second lowest of his entire career, going all the way back to how bad he was in New York.
Andy Holloway
That's What?
Mike Wright
I mean, you didn't have to agree with me and be like, I think Geno's very good. He's played extremely well in Seattle. You could just be like, oh, he's fine. To go from that to what we are seeing is a catastrophic fallout.
Andy Holloway
The question to me, like, obviously he doesn't have Brock Bowers and maybe he just gets better. This is a five game sample and one of those games he, well, he was still bad. He threw three touchdowns to Trey Tucker and kind of garbage time. But he wasn't great playing in that game. But maybe he turns it around. I mean, if he's going to, this is a great chance to do it. My worry, he's 35 years old. My worry is just over. I mean, Peyton Manning, you know, he went from Lasik or something as great as you could be, you know, first ballot hall of famer in the conversation for best quarterback.
Jason Moore
But all of a sudden when it.
Mike Wright
Was over, he had nerve damage.
Jason Moore
There's no athletic thing that I think is impacting Geno Smith.
Mike Wright
Yeah, his processing.
Jason Moore
Unless you're saying that he's got a brain deterioration situation.
Andy Holloway
I mean, we all get older and stupider, you know.
Mike Wright
Yeah.
Jason Moore
But the interceptions are out of control. So this offense is also starting to run more and more through Genty. Tennessee's allowing the third most rushing yards per game this year. You always play Genty right now and then, you know, I don't really have the confidence in Jacoby Myers that I thought I was going to have with no Brock Bowers. Michael Mayer will be back. Trey Tucker gets a lot of targets. The offense, like I said, they throw the ball to Genti a lot.
Andy Holloway
I'm someone will. Someone will have fantasy value. But you can't really dart throw and you don't expect the fantasy value to be an incredible performance. So this is Ashton Genty, which is a great play. I mean, you said it. They're the third worst team against running backs. Last year they were the worst. So this is just what we should expect is that Genti will be able to run on the Titans. He's a must start. But I don't, I don't think I'm playing a single other raider.
Jason Moore
Calvin Ridley had a big week last week. 15.6 fantasy points without a score. Are you buying back into Ridley after what he did against the Cardinals or are you?
Mike Wright
Not yet.
Jason Moore
Okay. And Tony Pollard, you can still play him.
Mike Wright
The matchup says it's all right. The work has been there. But the season low of snaps and percentage of carries the moment that Tajie Spears was back. Not that Spears was getting a ton of work. He played a quarter of the snaps, got four opportunities, but he we're. I think I'd rather watch and see what's going to happen to really to the running backs, how it's going to.
Jason Moore
Shake out Michael Carter. You'd play over Tony Pollard then every week Tony Pollard's phrase on the show is you can play him.
Mike Wright
Yeah.
Jason Moore
Because it's never like you get what it's due.
Andy Holloway
Tony Pollard feels like basically you're going to get 10 fantasy points and that there's a place for that. There's a place like, hey, I'll plug 10 points in on my flex and you'll be fine. This isn't the scariest matchup against the Raiders. They're going to need him. They're going to use him. So I think he's a flex option.
Mike Wright
You can play him.
Andy Holloway
Yeah. Yeah, exactly.
Jason Moore
Cincinnati and Joe Flacco, 2 and 3. They travel to Lambeau. What a nice treat for Joe Flacco. Just get off the plane. Here's the playbook. Figure it out and go to Green Bay.
Andy Holloway
Get back on a plane.
Jason Moore
Yeah. Green Bay is 21 and 1 and the line is Green Bay minus 14.
Andy Holloway
Now two weeks ago we saw Flacco play against Green Bay. Don't care. He drew for 142 yards.
Jason Moore
Yeah.
Mike Wright
Different defense, different offensive line and 142 yards.
Jason Moore
Wow. The over under is 44 and a half, which means that Green Bay has an implied point total. It's got to be the highest on the week. 29.3 seems so. And Cincinnati's at 15 points. He like Joe Flacco. Let's. Let's just really quickly reprise what we said at the beginning of the week. He's been statuesque and turnover prone so far. It's really going to be hard to expect him to come in here and be productive from a yardage perspective against this pass rush with a brand new offense. I would expect them to try to protect him a little bit in his first game, which means maybe a lot of inefficient opportunities for Chase Brown and Jamar Chase.
Andy Holloway
I think there's going to be a lot of screens in this game trying to get the ball out quick and into a playmaker's hand and do something. It does. Let me have hope for Chase Brown's future that maybe the screen game work that he will get will be a little bit more efficient. You know, better timed on the passes, better placement on the ball. Allowing him to like gross questions. I love them. No. Oh, Mike does. So.
Jason Moore
Okay, Mike, if you had to lock in Chase Brown or Ramon Ray Stevenson into your lineup for this week. Nope. For the rest of the season.
Mike Wright
Oh, that's unfair.
Jason Moore
I told you it was gross. One team you like a lot, right?
Andy Holloway
New England.
Jason Moore
You kind of like the direction. Which one would you do?
Mike Wright
They are.
Jason Moore
Are they back to back in your.
Mike Wright
In my rest of season rankings, Chase Brown one spot ahead of Remdre. Are those 32 and 33?
Jason Moore
Okay, well then maybe the question is irrelevant.
Andy Holloway
They are back to back in mine. No. 32 and 33. However, I have Ramondre one spot ahead.
Jason Moore
Interesting. So you're going to remindre you're a big Ramandre guy.
Andy Holloway
Huge, obviously.
Jason Moore
Yeah.
Andy Holloway
Ramondre is huge. Obviously.
Jason Moore
Okay. Jamar Chase, you talked about it. Are we waiting and watching on T. Higgins right now? He's been unstartable.
Andy Holloway
Yeah. Prefer to against the packers defense with play Jacoby Myers.
Jason Moore
You'd play Matthew golden. You'd play Romeo Dobbs. Those three ahead of him.
Mike Wright
The. I think I'm open to it. The guys this is just. This is the matchup. You want players. It won't work out for all of them, but you got to. You got to get some. Some tickets to this game of 24 against quarterbacks, 32nd against running backs, 20th against wide receivers, 32nd against tight ends.
Jason Moore
This is like you're saying this is Packer side. You'd.
Andy Holloway
Yeah. Yeah.
Mike Wright
Yes.
Jason Moore
You'd like a ticket on that side.
Mike Wright
Yes. This is where multiple guys for the Green Bay packers will go off this week.
Andy Holloway
They're implied for 30 points. They might smash that. This is literally the team where you. You take a shot on anyone. Obviously Jacobs is. Is in.
Jason Moore
Could be good for Golden.
Andy Holloway
Yep.
Jason Moore
Gotta buy a week. You're coming out by a week, Dobbs.
Andy Holloway
If you are a big underdog and you've dealt with injuries and just go get Dontavian Wicks off of waivers and be like I'll throw him out there and see if he can catch a bomb touchdown.
Jason Moore
I mean played 77% of snaps before the buy. Don Tavian Wicks.
Andy Holloway
Yeah. So I think you Mike's right. This is. These are just lottery tickets against a terrible defense for a team implied for the most points of the week.
Jason Moore
Tucker Craft and Jordan Lover starts of the week for Mike and myself and one of the top searches on our start sit tool on the website which go check it out if you have a start. Sick question. The fantasy footballers dot com. It's Crafter Waller.
Mike Wright
Oh, man.
Jason Moore
Isn't there a weather situation going on a little bit for the Waller game that we need to talk about? Because that's the.
Mike Wright
The ones that I'm. No, the only ones I'm seeing that have some concern, mild rain, concern for the Cleveland Pittsburgh game. The big one to notice and pay attention to is Rams at Baltimore. We have current models are projecting, you know, a decent amount of rain and then wind where with like 15 and gusts to 25 and 30. That's the bigger issue now.
Jason Moore
We talked about Stafford. He's a start of the week, you got to pay. Yeah.
Andy Holloway
You can pivot.
Jason Moore
Yeah, you might need to pivot. And Mike on Sunday Live will give you the latest breakdown.
Mike Wright
Like the rain, I don't really care. That's fine. They go out, go out and play in the rain. But if you have rain plus gusts up to 25 miles an hour, that's sketchy.
Andy Holloway
Yeah. Statistically speaking, when wind crosses 15 miles an hour, that's like, if it's windy and it's 12 miles an hour, the passing game doesn't usually take a noticeable hit. When it's over 15 miles an hour, you start running the ball more. Having, you know, the actual statistics that we care about in fantasy football, they start taking a massive hit to the pass.
Jason Moore
And I'm not going to say, like, you have to pivot right this moment because weather patterns change.
Mike Wright
Yep.
Jason Moore
I'm seeing sub 15 mile an hour winds on my model over here, but it's close and it's. Be prepared, have somebody on the roster.
Andy Holloway
Even if you don't pick them up now, just look at, look at the waivers and, and say, okay, I'm going to pivot to this gu. If the weather looks awful that morning.
Jason Moore
Like, pivot to Mac Jones and the 49ers, who are four and one traveling to Tampa to take on the Buccaneers. Tampa minus three over under 47 and a half. Baker Mayfield, he's been a top 12 quarterback in four of five weeks. It's. It's wild. He is, he's not on the, you know, insane touchdown pace of last year. Like, he's been a tremendously great quarterback, but his touchdown pace is 34. I think he was at 40 plus 41, 42 last year. So 41, 41. So, like, I mean, it's nice he's giving you like, like last week was, was a great one. Obviously he was the quarterback three on the week, but I don't know, there's still some ceiling for him when he Gets more weapons back. I don't know if that'll be this week in particular, but it's been a really impressive season. A lot of injuries. No Bucky Irving, no Mike Evans, no Chris Godwin. We've talked a lot about this already. You play a Mecca, Buca, and you play him with confidence. I think he is my number four wide receiver on the week.
Mike Wright
With a smile in your heart?
Jason Moore
Yeah, it's just getting better. Like, we. When a rookie has tremendous success early, you still, like, if they're not having success, we come on the show and we say, well, it takes them a while to get going. That implies you learn more. Right. You see opposing defenses, you see things you've never seen. I mean, Jackson dart, they asked him yesterday, you know, what's the process? He's like, I'm learning every day. I see defensive coverages that change every day. The players that are already playing well now, they can continue to learn and get better and learn about, you know, that rapport he's building with his quarterback is five games in. It's going to be great for him. Rashad White, tons of opportunities. He's in your lineup. What about, you know, we talked about Otten. Is there anybody else in this lineup?
Mike Wright
Not from. From Tampa Bay?
Jason Moore
Yes.
Mike Wright
No.
Jason Moore
No. And then on the other side, I.
Mike Wright
Guess if you want to get super nasty, it would be Sterling Shepard. But I am super nasty. It's super nasty.
Andy Holloway
Yeah. So far on the season, the 49ers have been pretty good against wide receivers. So I think, yeah, Rashad White, Bucky Igbuka Otten, That's. That's. That's enough to fill your balance.
Mike Wright
I'd be playing Juwan Jennings or Kendrick Bourne over someone like Shepard.
Jason Moore
Yeah, I would, too. And unfortunately, we might not get a lot from either one if they play together. And we have demarcus Robinson still out there, Jake Tonjas, they're on the road here. Mac Jones, he is banged up. He should be their starter. Christian McCaffrey feels very safe this week.
Andy Holloway
Every week.
Jason Moore
Well, Ton just feels like, you know, he's pretty safe. In terms of some targets for McCaffrey.
Mike Wright
The Bucks have allowed the third most receiving yards per game to running backs.
Andy Holloway
Oh.
Jason Moore
It'S wild because McAfee, under nine.
Mike Wright
And a half receptions.
Jason Moore
If you told me they were the best team in the league against running backs who catch the ball, I would not care.
Mike Wright
But that's. This one is just, like, extra tasty.
Jason Moore
Yeah, it is extra tasty. Is Mac Jones a viable streamer? I mean, 27th against quarterbacks, the Buccaneers have given up a lot of points. Mac Jones has been good in his start.
Andy Holloway
Really tough because you got two top 10 performances out of his three current starts. And the matchup says yes. But I do worry about the injury. I was watching both of these players practice this week and we still got, you know, several days to go. And obviously Mac Jones, I mean, what a man.
Mike Wright
After that game, most quarterbacks would have gone on IR for sure.
Andy Holloway
So. But that is my worry here with Mac Jones is simply just like, I've got the injury worry.
Jason Moore
I think he could be a. I don't know what the game times are. Let me see. Sunday, 4:25 Eastern. When's the Baltimore game? Do we have that one? When you think about pivot options in a league where a lot of quarterbacks are rostered, maybe he would be one for Stafford if Stafford's weather was terrible.
Mike Wright
Let's see the. Where is the I cannot B a.
Andy Holloway
L for Baltimore Ravens are 1pm Eastern.
Mike Wright
Thank you.
Andy Holloway
So you'll know the weather there. Yeah, you could use. You could use Mac Jones as a pivot.
Jason Moore
Detroit 4 and 1 Sunday Night Football going to Kansas City to take on the Chiefs. Oh, my.
Mike Wright
That is awesome.
Jason Moore
The Chiefs are favored 2 1/2 point home favorites in this game. Over under is 52.5.
Andy Holloway
Oh, yeah.
Mike Wright
Hit it, Hit it.
Jason Moore
Wait, wait. What do you want me to hit? Oh, I was looking for some. Something to talk about. You were gonna almost. Oh, no, no, no. I already did that.
Mike Wright
Okay.
Jason Moore
I was just looking for a boom, shock a locker or something. No, I can't find it. 52 and a half point over. Under. Yeah, yeah, there it is.
Mike Wright
Surprised we can get a 55 there.
Jason Moore
Oh, you mean because Al's yesterday.
Mike Wright
Yeah.
Jason Moore
All right, the Lions and Chiefs, here we go. Mahomes has been very good for fantasy. He's got the question mark was Avery Worthy. But Tyquan Thornton, Hollywood Brown, Travis Kelsey, maybe it's better not to say the names he's throwing to and just take the rushing yardage from Patrick Mahomes these days.
Andy Holloway
Yeah, I mean, Patrick Mahomes is a. Is a good start. You know, in a high over under game where he's going to have to make something happen and he doesn't have the weapons to throw to. It's probably going to be him on the ground that is making up the fantasy value. Tyquan Thornton is a legitimate startable player. You know, we would talk about, you know, the Kendrick Bourns or Joanne Jennings. I feel like Tyquan Thornton is right there. You've got games with five targets. Five targets and nine targets. If Xavier Worthy is out.
Mike Wright
Yeah. That's the big one.
Andy Holloway
Yeah. And then this is assuming that Worthy is not going to play. He might suit up and then he's more of a dart throw. But if Worthy is out, Tyquan Thornton becomes really just a legitimate flex option.
Jason Moore
Yeah. The Lions are missing a couple of top cornerbacks and you always have a touchdown chance. Thornton has been a touchdown or 90 yards and four straight. Amon Ra. Lock him in. If you. Where are you with Jameson Williams in this matchup?
Andy Holloway
In the fetal position.
Mike Wright
Yeah.
Andy Holloway
Weeping, crying in a closet.
Jason Moore
He's at a bad show. That's a bad thing, right?
Andy Holloway
Yeah, I mean, it's. It's been.
Mike Wright
Because how do you. 52 and a half point over under their road dogs. They're going to have to throw if.
Jason Moore
You want him to get a season roll and just bench him. That's about how it feels with Jameson Williams, man.
Andy Holloway
Two weeks ago, eight targets and they were.
Mike Wright
The adot was just so crazy.
Jason Moore
It seemed like he could add eight touchdowns in that game. None.
Andy Holloway
It's so crazy because I feel fine starting Taekwond Thornton, but scared starting Jameson Williams. Jameson Williams is the better player.
Jason Moore
Well, I think that basically I feel the same about them and that's terrifying for me.
Mike Wright
Yeah.
Jason Moore
With Jameson Williams, which is basically you feel like you need a big play from one of those guys. You need a touchdown. You're not going to get like Taekwond Thornton's not getting PPR his way to success. So Jameson feels like the same category for right now. So maybe you take a break if you need it. But the high over under you like pieces in a game like that.
Mike Wright
Yes, you do.
Andy Holloway
And you certainly can start Jameson Williams. Process says that Jameson Williams is a fine start. It's just difficult emotionally when he has been bad in four or five games.
Jason Moore
Gibbs and Monty in your lineup. Sam Laporta. How are we feeling about Laporta?
Mike Wright
Body still. Still fine.
Jason Moore
Yeah. Last week was.
Mike Wright
There's no reason not to play laporta right now.
Jason Moore
Five for 92 and a touchdown. Last week, there's where Jameson Williams's activity went.
Andy Holloway
Yeah. It's not a very good matchup like tight ends are. You know, that might give you more confidence in Jameson Williams knowing that Jameson Williams and Sam Laporta. These are these guys that honestly, if they were needed, if they were like, I have to get this guy the ball seven, eight times a game and they could and I think both would succeed. Sam Laporta is great. They just don't always need him. And I think matchups don't always dictate that. This is a matchup where you're still starting Sam Laporta, but it's not somewhere where you're bullish that they're going to really rely on Laporta here. So maybe it does go Jameson's way.
Jason Moore
The Chiefs are number one in the NFL and pass rate over expectation. Mahomes is on pace for 622 pass attempts. The Lions are 31st in pass rate over expectation. Golf is on pace for 493. So almost, you know, what was that? 130 more pass attempts.
Andy Holloway
So yeah, one of these teams can run the ball exceptionally well and one of these teams can't run the ball well at all. So it makes sense.
Jason Moore
Cream Hunt is ranked where for you this week?
Andy Holloway
Man, I can pull it up. I don't know exactly where he is, but I'm not.
Jason Moore
Seven attempts last week and two touchdowns.
Andy Holloway
I'm not wanting to start Cream Hunt and chase the touchdowns. I don't really want to start any of the running backs for the Chiefs. You can get touchdowns and save your day. It's not the end of the world. But I don't expect good volume for.
Jason Moore
Any of them from Andre over Cream Hunt.
Andy Holloway
Absolutely.
Jason Moore
Monday Night Football, we have a double header for Mike. They did it for you, Mike.
Mike Wright
Hey, thank you. I mean, they're just giving me everything I need. 6:30am Games.
Jason Moore
We told you that we split screen it, Jason.
Andy Holloway
Yes, but you have a different wonderful.
Mike Wright
I have a different provider.
Jason Moore
But you have a phone, right?
Mike Wright
Yeah.
Jason Moore
So you could like split screen it.
Andy Holloway
Yourself one on your phone.
Mike Wright
I could, but I'm also.
Jason Moore
Give it a go, Mike.
Mike Wright
But I'm also on the. Using my phone to be on the Twitter machine and talking to you guys and stuff.
Jason Moore
You have a computer, you got an iPad, a laptop.
Mike Wright
There are ways you watch it on.
Andy Holloway
Your watch a little TV tray. Got an Apple Vision Pro laptop on a TV tray next to.
Mike Wright
I don't have a TV tray.
Andy Holloway
You don't have a TV tray?
Jason Moore
Oh, that's the problem, Jason.
Mike Wright
TV trays.
Jason Moore
Heck yeah, man. No, that.
Mike Wright
It's not 1987, man.
Jason Moore
That's a little strange. You have a TV tray, Jay?
Andy Holloway
Yeah, I got.
Mike Wright
Is it got a four pack wood laminate on it too?
Andy Holloway
No, no, it folds up nice. It's. It like comes in and you use it. Yeah, if I want to watch it.
Mike Wright
Go to the Dooser camp. Do we have TV trays back there.
Jason Moore
I do not for your TV dinners, bro.
Andy Holloway
I'm the oldest and I don't have one of those. This isn't an old thing.
Mike Wright
Yes, it is.
Jason Moore
It's a little bit old.
Mike Wright
You're popping your dinner in the microwave.
Andy Holloway
Okay, hold on.
Mike Wright
Got a little brownie dessert for you.
Andy Holloway
You want to watch tv?
Mike Wright
Got a penguin on the box.
Andy Holloway
So, at your house, I don't know how you guys do this. You want to watch TV and you want to eat. And let's say it's a steak. You got a fork and knife. This thing. Okay, so you need steak in your.
Jason Moore
At your TV tray.
Mike Wright
Wow.
Andy Holloway
Yeah. Whoa. I said dinner. Anyways, so what are you putting your.
Jason Moore
Plate on the kitchen table?
Mike Wright
Table?
Jason Moore
Yeah.
Andy Holloway
You got. You can see your tv.
Jason Moore
Yeah, you can see it pretty good.
Mike Wright
Yeah.
Andy Holloway
Okay. Yeah, I guess I got to move my kitchen table to my living room. Do you ever get the weirdos?
Jason Moore
Do you have, like, the big kids TV dinners?
Mike Wright
That's what I was saying. Kid cuisine.
Andy Holloway
Delicious.
Jason Moore
Oh, man.
Mike Wright
He makes kid cuisine.
Andy Holloway
And also, when I said steak, I meant Salisbury steak. Hungry man. Oh, yeah, Ultra. I used to love TV dinners, man.
Jason Moore
They have. You don't anymore?
Andy Holloway
No, I. They're so unhealthy. I can't eat that crap.
Jason Moore
I don't know how we ended up shaming somebody for a TV tray. That's really not that big a deal.
Andy Holloway
Yeah, we were shaming Mike for not having the ability to split.
Mike Wright
Judo throw.
Andy Holloway
You did you just get dunked on?
Jason Moore
You distracted the whole thing. Because Mike's complaining about not split screening. He's got 40 devices.
Andy Holloway
I had a great idea with the TV tray.
Jason Moore
Yeah. Yeah. Buffalo's four and one Monday night double header. They're taking on the Atlanta Falcons, who are two and two. Buffalo minus four and a half. On the road, over under 40, nine and a half. Buffalo coming off their first loss of the season. Generally that's bad news for the opposition. I never want to be in the position where I'm, you know, taking on a more focused Josh Allen, but I also would have said the same thing about Philadelphia yesterday, and it didn't happen. So Josh Allen, James Cook, their locks. Dalton Kincaid, we need to flag this because he is, I believe, is he the tight end one?
Andy Holloway
Well, on the season, currently it is.
Jason Moore
He's a tight end. Three on the season now. Okay. But Dalton Kincaid's been pretty much an auto start, but he was limited on Thursday with an oblique injury. Wore a non contact jersey in practice. I have a couple of leagues where I'm, like, platooning the Kincaid Pitts situation, which is on the other side of this game. I'm just going to.
Mike Wright
That's handy for you.
Jason Moore
I mean, Darnell Mooney's not practicing. So, like, you take a piece out of this offense. I feel a lot safer with Kyle Pitts, personally.
Andy Holloway
I got bad news for you, Andy. Do you know who's number one against tight ends? The Bills. You know who's number two against tight ends? The Falcons.
Jason Moore
Yeah.
Andy Holloway
So it's just not a great. It's not a great matchup. It's just ironic that those are your two tight ends and you're deciding between those and they're. They've. They both got the most difficult matchup ahead.
Jason Moore
They do. And. But I'm gonna. I'm gonna go Kyle Pitts in that one with the oblique injury. And if Dalton Kincaid were to miss, maybe it raises the floor for Shakir and Keon Coleman. Maybe in a game where they're implied to, you know, it's 27 points and the Falcons are the best defense in football against the run. You saw James Cook get slowed down last week. Maybe. Maybe this is a chance for Keon Coleman or Khalil Shakir to have a big game. I can see nobody getting on board with that.
Andy Holloway
I mean, everything you're saying makes sense. If Kincaid is hurt, you're projected for 27 points. You've got a tough run D. Someone should get involved. And Shakir should have the manufactured touches. So his floor is probably higher. I think the ceiling is higher with Coleman, but I'm not excited about either of those guys. I mean, this is still a team in Buffalo that spreads the ball around. You know, they talk about on every broadcast. Right. It's everybody eats. That's their. That's their phrase in Buffalo. Everybody eats. It's no selfishness. No one cares about with those TV trays.
Jason Moore
Yeah, that's their philosophy, too.
Mike Wright
Yeah. They call that eating. That's Keon Coleman showing up to the school pizza party, and that's all he's getting. He's getting that real thin slice.
Andy Holloway
Yeah, Everybody eats a little bit.
Mike Wright
Over the past four games, he barely. He has 114 yards in four weeks. Week one, he was at 112.
Jason Moore
Yeah. Yeah. I'm not saying you should be confident. I'm just saying it's lining up to where somebody might do it.
Andy Holloway
What you're saying is Josh Allen's going to throw the ball to someone. We just don't know who it is. It's been Kincaid. Kincaid is hurt. So you can take your shots on these guys, but I'm really not excited.
Jason Moore
Michael Pinnicks, Bijan Robinson and company. What do you have for the Falcons side? Drake London probably without his running mate, Darnell Mooney. Eight for one, ten and one before the bye week. You know, we talked about Pitts. Bijan's a lock. What are you doing with.
Mike Wright
Drake's a lock, too.
Andy Holloway
Yeah, Drake. Drake is an absolute lock. The targets will be there without Mooney with, you know, Pitts in a tough matchup. I think Drake London is in. Bijon is in. And then Pitts is playable.
Jason Moore
Yeah, I think he is. We'll take a break. We'll talk about the other Monday night game. What's up, clan? This episode is brought to you by NFL Sunday Ticket and YouTube TV.

Jason Moore
All right, before we jump into our final matchup, I do want to encourage you. Head over to JoinTheFoot.com and get access to all of our premium tools and resources. The lineup optimizer with a spot start tool, which is becoming more valuable with the weather situation.
Andy Holloway
What that does is it'll take a look at your specific team and your waivers and say, hey, look, there's, there's someone on waivers that you could put in your starting lineup right now that you might just score more points.
Jason Moore
Yeah. And breaking news anytime that a major player is now moving to questionable on a Friday Zach Taylor saying Jamar Chase got sick last night. He's questionable to play against the Packers.
Andy Holloway
I have brought this up a few times this year, but it is the team the week after playing the Lions, they get, they just, they are destroyed. I mean, we saw that happen with the Ravens the week after the Lions hurt them and so now that. That is the Bengals, and so I'm not saying the Lions caused him to get sick, but I'm. I'm not not saying it.
Mike Wright
He doesn't have flaccoitis.
Andy Holloway
Yeah. So that would be not good for. I mean, if Joe Flacco doesn't have Jamar Chase and no offensive line against this packers team, that's just sad.
Mike Wright
Yeah, just. Just run it three times and punt.
Jason Moore
That'd be tough. It'll be tough for Judkins to volume his way there. We're going to count on it, but it's still going to be a tough one. The Chicago Bears at 2 and 2 take on the Washington Commanders, who are 3 and 2. I'm excited for this game. Vegas line, Washington -4 and a half over unders 49 and a half. It's an exciting group of fantasy football players in this matchup.
Andy Holloway
I mean, man, this was the game.
Jason Moore
This was the Hail Mary game.
Andy Holloway
This was the game that ruined everything for the four and two Bears and they couldn't ever recover from the Hail Mary. Oh, man.
Jason Moore
Yeah, it's. It's Jaden Daniels who we'd like to see get going. He's. He's only played three games this year. He was injured.
Mike Wright
Very disappointing.
Jason Moore
I, you know, what I was encouraged about was he still ran for 39 yards last week on his first game back with the knee injury. So I'm, you know, at home in this one. A week removed from, you know, the return from the injury. I don't know. I think, I think it'll be a pretty good game for Jaden Daniels in this one. Do you guys disagree?
Andy Holloway
No, I agree. I think this being Monday Night Football prime time, you're going to have these two quarterbacks do whatever they can do. And, you know, I expect big fantasy performances in this game. So a popular start sit question has been Caleb Williams or Bo Nix. I'm on the Caleb Williams side, but the same thing with Jaden Daniels. Like right now, he's my quarterback. Three. I expect him. Wow.
Jason Moore
Yeah, I do think it'll be a good week. Now. Debo is going to be his number one guy. Debo is a must play at this point.
Mike Wright
Yeah.
Jason Moore
He's sitting as the, I believe, wide receiver. Seven on the season. And you know, Jacori, Karoski, Merritt, Mike, your start of the week.
Mike Wright
Yeah.
Jason Moore
Big week for jcm. Big week for Bill. Bill Crosky, that is.
Andy Holloway
Oh, I said I'm going to, I'm going to be Crosby. But he's got to have the Game.
Jason Moore
Is that what you said?
Andy Holloway
Yeah. Tuesday. Stay tuned, stay tuned, stay tuned.
Jason Moore
Caleb Williams, DeAndre Swift. DeAndre Swift is freaking.
Mike Wright
DeAndre Swift.
Jason Moore
He's man, he's productive. He just is. He like last three games, 12.4 and.
Andy Holloway
He'S getting away with it.
Jason Moore
He is 2.5 a carry, 2.7 a carry and 3.1.
Mike Wright
He is not productive on the ground.
Jason Moore
Three of their four.
Andy Holloway
He's not good but he gets but for fantasy, 20 opportunities, 17 opportunities, 15 opportunities, 22 opportunities, he's doing exactly what he has always done. Every single year of his career.
Jason Moore
He averages 11 per game points.
Andy Holloway
Fantasy points exactly the last three years for three different teams. 11.4, 11.2, 11.9 fantasy points. Like that's he's going to go out there and score you about 11 fantasy points which is there's a place for it.
Mike Wright
And Kyle Manongai, their backup monona guy just keeps getting banged up and hasn't. Well, I'm saying much with his opportunities either. Feels like to me every time you think hey Manon guy might see more like oh, pops up on the injury report.
Jason Moore
Yeah, he might not play because Swift is injuring him. Yeah, Swift is.
Mike Wright
Swift is just throwing banana peels regrettably Mario Kart style productive. He's like take this turtle show.
Andy Holloway
Well, at least they're coming. They're coming out of the buy so we'll see if things change in the running back room. I mean right now we're going to expect it's going to be a lot of Swift and that's what it is. But when you come out of a buy, those are the opportunities for changes. So we'll see if, if Manangai is healthy enough to start having more of that workload. Maybe Roshan Johnson for all we know is like, hey, you know what we got to do. He is, he is still there. He's not playing a whole lot of snaps but he is technically active.
Mike Wright
He is by the looks of it, playing none of them.
Andy Holloway
Yeah, but active. Active and not playing a lot of snaps.
Mike Wright
I mean you could say infinity. This is.
Jason Moore
That's what he would say to his mom.
Mike Wright
Yeah. Not getting a ton of opportunity right now.
Jason Moore
Oh yeah. How much are you getting? Not a ton. Not a ton. Oh, could be more me one of the place.
Andy Holloway
Just watch me warming up. I just want a new video of me warming up.
Mike Wright
Could, could it be. Could you have less opportunity?
Jason Moore
Well, not exactly but I've been active.
Andy Holloway
Yeah.
Jason Moore
Roma Dunes is a lock. Debo's a lock. But on the other Wide receivers, you know, DJ Moore this year it's been weird.
Mike Wright
Oh man, it's been awful.
Jason Moore
It's been basically phase out kind of weird.
Andy Holloway
Yeah.
Jason Moore
4 for 38, 4 for 21, 5 for 46, 3 for 68. You know, dude, that's not really startable.
Andy Holloway
On the, on the dynasty podcast we were talking like long term value. You know, I think bets brought up like maybe he won't be on the team.
Jason Moore
Yeah, I wonder that too.
Andy Holloway
Oh, you don't need to wonder it. He will be on the team because.
Mike Wright
The contract, they can't trade him.
Andy Holloway
Well, I mean they, they could if someone else wants his contract, but they gave him a contract this year. Like it's a brand new contract.
Jason Moore
It was also applauded on this show.
Andy Holloway
Yeah. 60 million dead cap next year. 35 million dead cap the year after that. So like he, he's not going anywhere, but he sure seems like he's gone someplace.
Jason Moore
Yeah, that would be the trait. Like to me he could go into an offense and be your number one. I will say that they're not using.
Mike Wright
Him as one for DJ Moore like Rome has for fantasy purposes. Rome has been great.
Andy Holloway
Yes.
Mike Wright
He also has five receiving touchdowns. The yardage for Rome, week 137, week two, that was the huge. 128 awesome game. 62 and then 69 yards.
Andy Holloway
Those are fine. And 62 and 69.
Mike Wright
But I'm saying like DJ Moore, 68, 46, then the 21, 38. So it's like their averages, he's averaging what, 43 yards a game and Rome is at 74.
Jason Moore
It's the equivalent of 750 for the year. 1200 for the year.
Mike Wright
Yeah.
Jason Moore
So I mean DJ is just not a player that you have confidence playing.
Mike Wright
I'm not saying to play more, it's just, it's, it's not.
Andy Holloway
While we talk about big game difference coming out of a buy is where you sometimes see those changes. I don't know that they've, you know, Roshan and Mananga, they might not have the ability to make the changes to the backfield, but Luther Burden.
Mike Wright
Yeah.
Andy Holloway
Colson Loveland, if he plays Loveland, the passing game. And this is going to be a game like obviously it's prime time, it's Monday Night Football, it's off of a bye week. And I think there's going to be a lot to learn in this game. From what the Bears look like, it's a perfect litmus test for them. It's a matchup. That's like the other team's going to score. Their defense is good, but it's not like unbeatable.
Mike Wright
So what.
Andy Holloway
What do you got? Bears. I'm really excited to see this game.
Jason Moore
Any other players you want to mention?
Mike Wright
Just that the longer term I'm going to keep my eye on Colston Loveland. The injuries have really derailed things but. And he was limited on this Thursday so he may. The injuries may just completely destroy his rookie year. But I do. There was a plan for him and give it a couple of weeks and then we may see what the plan was supposed to be.
Jason Moore
One thing to note, just to amplify the mike start of the week of Jacori Krosky Merit Washington is number one in football in yards per game rushing and that's even with missing Jaden Daniels for a couple of weeks. The Bears defense is 31st in rushing yards alone. So they're averaging 156 rushing yards and the Bears are giving up 164. That is a very, very nice situation at home.
Mike Wright
That's a good spot. It's really the. This is the like the most optimal matchup coming off of the last week, last week breakout to do this and then just secure it.
Andy Holloway
Yeah.
Mike Wright
Like in front of. In front of everyone on the island game.
Jason Moore
Not a fully island game. It's a lot like Scatter Boo list. Exactly like Scatter Boo's game last night. You win the game, you score three touchdowns and then you go on the postgame show and you rip your shirt off and you know you're like everybody's favorite player for the evening. Same thing can happen for Bill on that.
Andy Holloway
I know that he is a strong NFL player. Talking about Cam Scatter Boo. But was anybody else impressed that he like the sports shirt material, the collars?
Jason Moore
I feel like you could do it.
Andy Holloway
Nice try. Nice try. You're tempted.
Jason Moore
A little.
Mike Wright
I was a little bit tempted. You're wrong. He couldn't do it.
Jason Moore
Oh, you're right.
Andy Holloway
Okay, hit that. Let's. We gotta hear the segment. Rip off your shirt. But I was very impressed because I think that would be hard to do. Hard to do.
Jason Moore
Yeah. Yeah. It's not cotton. It was athletic shirt.
Andy Holloway
Yeah, exactly.
Mike Wright
His backflip.
Andy Holloway
Yeah. I mean the dude is pretty strong.
Mike Wright
I thought you were going to talk about how like his size and then. And then Fitzpatrick was like, oh, yeah, Fitzpatrick was that. It was a beast.
Jason Moore
By the way. Fun fact, Scatterboo remembers nothing of yesterday.
Andy Holloway
He's no idea what happened.
Jason Moore
He woke up without a shirt.
Mike Wright
He has no idea he's Memento.
Andy Holloway
To quote his.
Jason Moore
Yes. He writes it on his. I am a running back.
Mike Wright
Well, he. He got to about run hard. Got to 18, and then his.
Andy Holloway
Every day is a new day. Yeah. To quote his teammate, guy's an idiot. Physicality.
Jason Moore
Chuba is out as an injury update. Jalen Coker, game time decision along with Tavian Sanders and then Kyler Murray. Status will be determined in the next few days, but he is out there practicing.
Mike Wright
Jalen Coker and Jatavian Sanders coming back would be excellent for Bryce Young.
Jason Moore
Yeah. For Carolina and moving the football.
Mike Wright
Yeah.
Jason Moore
All right. Yeah, I'm. Somebody find the lineman situation there. Who they're missing, because I think it's one of their better players. But I don't want to misspeak on that. But that. That would. That would hurt on the other side. That would hurt Bryce Young a little bit.
Mike Wright
Sure.
Jason Moore
Let's jump into the Face off.
Andy Holloway
Fantasy. Face off presented by prize pick.
Jason Moore
Is it even possible to miss any of these?
Andy Holloway
Dude, I don't.
Jason Moore
I mean, I haven't missed one in a while, so. I'm not spinning the wheel.
Andy Holloway
I'm not spinning the wheel either.
Jason Moore
Four for four week, my friends.
Andy Holloway
I went three for four, but I still. Still made that schmoney.
Mike Wright
Yeah, I got. I had a. Quentin Johnston and Alva Camara. They both missed for me. Weird that they popped up on the injury report.
Jason Moore
Actually, that was Jason's miss, too. Darius Slayton left early in his game. But we'll jump into it and. But, you know, we got to do this.
Mike Wright
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Andy Holloway
Wheel of Shame.
Jason Moore
Mike Wright's Wheel of Shame in the Wheel.
Mike Wright
That's fine. That's fine. Let's have a good time. We got. Man. Rainy day. The Count. Oh, the Lizard King.
Andy Holloway
Oh, man. Oh, man.
Jason Moore
Yeah. I think that might be more of a bearded dragon. That's a lizard, though, right?
Andy Holloway
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Jason Moore
It's got air holes and everything.
Mike Wright
Mike, I'm sure I'm going to be able to breathe and see.
Jason Moore
Yeah. And your head totally fit in.
Andy Holloway
It looks huge. Which could possibly fit.
Jason Moore
Oh, that's perfect, Mike.
Andy Holloway
Actually, this is a good look for you.
Jason Moore
Yeah, I like it.
Andy Holloway
I'm not joking. You look better.
Mike Wright
Thank you.
Jason Moore
It's a little tough to stare at you with that on.
Andy Holloway
I love it.
Jason Moore
You're looking. You're looking pretty good. And I think you can breathe. So that's a step up from some of our other punishments.
Mike Wright
At least for a few minutes.
Jason Moore
All right, we are jumping into the lineups. We'll start at the quarterback position. This Is my Green Goblin the easiest one on my slate. I'm going. Dak Prescott. I'm going. More than one and a half passing touchdowns. That is my Green Goblin against Carolina which looks one and a half. That's still a good amount.
Andy Holloway
Yeah.
Jason Moore
Your quarterback.
Andy Holloway
My quarterback. I'm going with Jordan Love. We have been taking the his rushing projection and going more but I'm actually going passing yards on this one. 239 and a half. I think he has more than that.
Jason Moore
All right, Mike.
Mike Wright
I don't have a mouth hole.
Andy Holloway
You don't have a mouth hole in.
Jason Moore
Front of the nostrils. There you go.
Mike Wright
My quarterback is my Green Goblin. I'm going.
Jason Moore
Look, prize picks is.
Mike Wright
Hold on. There you go. Prize picks is really fun because they offer like different ways to play.
Andy Holloway
I'm going.
Mike Wright
Bryce Young more than six and a half completions in his first ten pass attempts.
Jason Moore
Okay.
Andy Holloway
So the scripted. You start the game.
Mike Wright
I think. I think he can hit 7 of 10.
Jason Moore
Okay. I like that. That's fun. I or more.
Mike Wright
He could do 10 of 10 and then it would still work too.
Jason Moore
Yeah. No thanks, Mike. Go back into your lizard.
Andy Holloway
Lizard head.
Jason Moore
I will actually move to the wide receiver position because I also took a different projection than kind of the standards. I'm actually going with Travis hunter. More than 17 and a half yards for his longest reception.
Andy Holloway
Okay.
Jason Moore
For Travis Hunter. I think they will get him down the field this week.
Mike Wright
More Kool aid.
Jason Moore
More than 17 and a half yards. Yeah. For at least one play.
Andy Holloway
I'm going to be honest with you. I don't like that one. I'm just going to be honest. I'm going to. For my wide receiver. My wide receiver is my Green Goblin. It's Jackson, Smith and Jigba. More than four and a half receptions. It just seems like he's going to have eight. So I'm not too worried about this one.
Jason Moore
Okay. Mike, your wide receiver.
Mike Wright
Wide receiver. I have Amika. A big boo.
Jason Moore
I Mika Egbeg Boo.
Mike Wright
I got a mecha booga. More than 78 and a half receiving yards.
Jason Moore
Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Like that. My running back, Ramon Dre Stevenson.
Andy Holloway
That's right up your Alley.
Jason Moore
More than 43.5 rushing yards.
Andy Holloway
Oh yeah.
Mike Wright
That's going to be a sweat.
Jason Moore
You're running back Jason.
Andy Holloway
My running back. I personally love this one. Which means it won't work out. But I have Jalen Warren. He. His projection is 48 and a half rushing yards. He has not done that once this season. He is coming off of an injury and he's playing against the Cleveland Browns. So I am taking less than that.
Jason Moore
Oh, it would have been amazing if you had taken the more after after that whole argument.
Mike Wright
Yeah, that's a good line. My running back. I got Ken Bone Walker.
Jason Moore
Oh, boy.
Mike Wright
I'm going with combo rush receiving yards more than 62 and a half.
Jason Moore
Okay. Yeah, it's great. This is really fitting what we would do. Ramon Dre and Kin Bone. My tight end is going to be Darren Waller.
Andy Holloway
I am the walrus.
Jason Moore
More than 39.5 receiving yards.
Andy Holloway
Really? Which you. What a loser. I'm more than 38 and a half. My projection better than yours. I'm saying Darren Waller, baby.
Jason Moore
So if he. If it's 39.
Andy Holloway
If it's 39 on the dot, I'm a winner. You're a loser.
Jason Moore
You and I locked in at different times.
Andy Holloway
Yeah.
Mike Wright
I'm going with Andy's tight end. Start of the week, I'm taking Tucker Kraft 47 and a half receiving yards more, baby.
Jason Moore
He's our number one consensus tight end on the week. So. Yeah, get back in your lizard head.
Mike Wright
Yeah, I'm here.
