00:00:15
Hello Shrewdness fans and welcome to another episode of

00:00:20
the Shrewdness. We are through the 1st week of

00:00:24
football. If you're like me, you're

00:00:26
exhausted. You've watched an enormous

00:00:28
amount of football in the last four days.

00:00:32
Had to watch the opener, then you had to watch on Thursday

00:00:35
night. Then you had to watch Chiefs

00:00:36
game Friday night, probably watch the college on Saturday,

00:00:39
all day Sunday to Sunday night. And then an incredible Monday

00:00:43
night game as well. Sunday night.

00:00:44
Monday night games are incredible and hopefully you

00:00:48
kept your head. We'll stop working at that

00:00:51
later. We'll talk more about that

00:00:54
later. But first we got exciting news

00:00:56
and we have on our show tonight we have a model model good

00:01:02
looking. He does does some some he's got

00:01:05
a little side gig that he works the modeling.

00:01:08
You know there's a big demand for 50 year old Gray headed

00:01:14
white dudes, Miguel. I do some neck gel modeling in

00:01:19
my spare time. Neck gel models they're.

00:01:23
Hard to find. They are hard to find.

00:01:26
They are to find. I told I told Chiz I want to

00:01:31
talk for 30 seconds about our new T-shirts.

00:01:35
So hopefully you can see that that looks.

00:01:38
Great. Came up with a a sweet logo I'll

00:01:43
try to spin around on the back. We got Stay Shrewd and the QR

00:01:49
code to our website, so that's we will very soon have a link

00:01:55
from the website to directly order T-shirts.

00:01:57
For now we're just doing different drops.

00:02:00
So we're taking orders now for our the next round of these

00:02:04
things. But super exciting.

00:02:06
They look great. Who do we owe the the T-shirt

00:02:09
production? Who's the credit for the T?

00:02:11
Yeah, so we're partnered with a friend of mine who owns a

00:02:15
company called Little Bear Graphics, and they do all the,

00:02:18
they do all the ordering through the website.

00:02:21
They do all the printing and screening and all that kind of

00:02:24
stuff. They'll ship it to you if you

00:02:26
want them to. So anyway, yeah, we're super

00:02:29
excited to have that kind of launched and we'll continue

00:02:33
ramping up our website effort to get that more automated than it

00:02:37
is now. But anyway, good times for the

00:02:39
shrewdness. Love it, absolutely.

00:02:41
So make sure you check out the shrewdness dot podcast page dot

00:02:45
IO if you haven't done it yet. We'll update it every week with

00:02:49
our gambling picks, our sleepers, our spuds, and we hold

00:02:54
ourselves accountable. So you'll be able to see how

00:02:57
we're doing, how we've done and hopefully get some benefit from

00:03:01
that this season. Keep your head.

00:03:03
So it was the first week of beheading.

00:03:08
And you know, one of the things we pride ourselves in here on

00:03:12
the strudeness is we have a different level of knowledge,

00:03:15
kind of like a superior level of knowledge to the average fan.

00:03:20
You're enjoying yourself here. In the guillotine leagues, you

00:03:25
know, like some people like won't know anything.

00:03:29
They'll go and they'll draft. They'll be out Week 1.

00:03:31
So we we do not, that is not the kind of that is not the kind of

00:03:35
people that we have here on the podcast.

00:03:38
So you know what happened was someone actually hacked into

00:03:43
Dex's account in our shrewdness league and drafted for him, I

00:03:51
think. What happened is Travis Kelsey

00:03:54
annihilated my wide receiver on the third play of the game,

00:03:58
resulting in zero points for Xavier Worthy.

00:04:01
So everybody out there, Adam and survived, you probably had Lamar

00:04:06
Jackson or Josh Allen to pull you through to the other side.

00:04:10
Yeah, not did not have that. Went out by 2.94 points.

00:04:15
So one catch for 20 yards. Not that he's counting for. 10

00:04:19
yards, that is all that would have happened.

00:04:21
And when you look at Hollywood Browns line, hell, even Juju

00:04:25
Smith Schuster would have cleared it.

00:04:27
Yeah, yeah, sometimes a little bad luck goes a long way.

00:04:31
Gillo, you want your dude to get hurt in the fourth quarter if

00:04:33
someone's going to get hurt, not on the 3rd. 4th play right.

00:04:39
Or, or for the George Kittle owners out there like me, at

00:04:44
least used at least he scored before he got hurt.

00:04:47
So yeah, yeah, back and. Caught another ball before he

00:04:50
really went out. Rough luck for decks for sure.

00:04:54
Yeah, but. Very unfortunate.

00:04:56
Traditionally, like we've been talking on this podcast and

00:05:00
basically if you get to 70 points, you should be good.

00:05:03
They generally speaking like 62 is the traditional safeline.

00:05:07
So even with the injury, I was like, I'm fine.

00:05:11
And then just weird stuff just kept on happening.

00:05:13
They just kept scoring like Baltimore, play some defense,

00:05:16
hey Buffalo, play some defense like this game, Score 81 points

00:05:22
in that game and there's a lot of people scoring.

00:05:25
So even though I was doing pretty good at halftime, I was

00:05:29
still fine. Started going downhill quick.

00:05:32
So it's what it is. And that's that's what makes

00:05:35
this game great. So you can this format is

00:05:38
heartless. It doesn't matter how much

00:05:40
research you do, the team can be just fine.

00:05:44
And so here's here's there's two decisions that well, one thing

00:05:47
Xavier worthy wasn't a decision, but I had Dylan Sampson and he

00:05:50
was in the starting lineup at first, but then Jaden Reed was

00:05:53
kind of hurt and nicked up not practicing.

00:05:55
So I said I'm going to put Romeo Dobbs in there.

00:05:57
He'll be fine. He should be good for it a

00:05:59
little bit. He was 2 catches for 68 yards.

00:06:02
Nothing wrong with that. OK, Dylan Sampson though, 17

00:06:05
points on the bench because who knew that good Lord Cincinnati

00:06:11
was just going to not play defense at all?

00:06:13
Which you knew they're right, but the backup running back

00:06:16
getting 6 catches, yeah, for 64 yards and he only had like a 1.9

00:06:23
yard per carry when he was running the ball.

00:06:24
But. Was there a way to bet whether

00:06:27
Dylan Sampson or Xavier Worthy would have more catches going

00:06:31
in? Yeah, that was probably not a

00:06:34
safe bet until the 4th play, but whatever.

00:06:37
So no one wants to hear about all that stuff.

00:06:38
But regardless, one head down if you if you're in one of those,

00:06:42
hey, sometimes luck happens. But for the rest of you, here's

00:06:45
what we got cooking for you. So we're going to just do a

00:06:48
quick recap of some of the games we thought were interesting.

00:06:50
Some of the players we thought did really well or really bad,

00:06:54
and there's a laundry list of them.

00:06:56
The the scores this week weren't that high really, unless you had

00:07:00
a few key players. I mean, Joe.

00:07:01
Burrow points some of us have. High scores because yeah, it's

00:07:07
just luck of the draw. So Pruitt did take home the top

00:07:10
scorer in the league. I brought over the bottom and

00:07:13
Chisholm was right in the middle for listener league.

00:07:16
But it was very it's fun. So we got to do some guillotine

00:07:18
theater to get everything everybody exposed to that.

00:07:20
But All in all I think I'll go and start sub one of the

00:07:24
inspiring performances I saw he's some of that was good all

00:07:27
of training camp. He looked awesome.

00:07:28
We talked about him over and over his wide receiver a Mecca

00:07:30
Ibuca or Tampa Bay. He had himself a went out party

00:07:34
2 touchdowns. Baker love throwing to him and

00:07:37
Mike Evans still did just fine in this game.

00:07:39
But Ibuka he was he stood out. So he stood out and met some

00:07:44
incredible plays down the stretch, including the

00:07:45
game-winning touchdown. So how about you guys who stood

00:07:48
out from this weekend's games and you're like, wow, I'm glad

00:07:51
that happened. Yeah, I took a like Dex said.

00:07:54
I had AI had top points for the week.

00:07:57
Going into Monday night, I had AJ McCarthy left.

00:08:02
I took him super late in the draft, took a huge chance,

00:08:05
skipped over lots of other quarterbacks, took a chance on

00:08:09
him, and at halftime I was ready to go start scouting for new

00:08:13
quarterbacks. But he had a heck of a

00:08:16
second-half. Ran in a touchdown, which he

00:08:19
hardly ever does or did in college.

00:08:23
Threw for two more, including his first ever touchdown in the

00:08:26
pros to Justin Jefferson. That's always a good start.

00:08:29
JJ to JJ, which is pretty cool. So anyway, I was super, super

00:08:33
surprised, pleasantly surprised at JJ McCarthy this first week.

00:08:38
Yeah, it's a pretty tough Chicago Bears defense.

00:08:41
Yeah, I'll let you choose. I got a stud that was very

00:08:46
surprising to me as I like to mock this man and take a lot of

00:08:52
joy at his expense. Quentin Johnston.

00:08:55
My word. Quinton Johnson, 79 yards of two

00:08:58
TDs Holy cow. He looked uncoverable.

00:09:02
All of a sudden you can't cover Quinton Johnston and he just

00:09:05
blew up. I'm like, what did I was

00:09:08
thinking? Maybe I expected Lad Mcconkey to

00:09:10
do well, then maybe Keenan Allen, but not Quinton Johnson

00:09:13
and he just went off. So he was definitely one that I

00:09:17
was not expecting. On the flip side, the dud that

00:09:22
was could have put you out and may have was surprisingly Chase.

00:09:27
What if you were like? I would have loved to have a

00:09:31
shot at drafting Jamar Chase and two passes for 26 yards.

00:09:39
Yeah, he. Has his death on a stick for a

00:09:42
first round pick. Yeah, he's a highly chopped

00:09:45
player across guillotine leagues.

00:09:46
So some of you out there, like, tell me about it.

00:09:49
Jamar Chase is available in many guillotine leagues.

00:09:52
Especially because he's probably the number one overall pick.

00:09:56
So that team's second pick was #36 right?

00:09:59
Exactly. You're counting.

00:10:01
On Jmar to do something. That's a big talent gap between

00:10:04
your first and second picks. Whoo, that was a That's a.

00:10:08
Stab. In the first round, but that's

00:10:09
almost a worthy like deficit right there.

00:10:12
Next would you get Jmar Chase getting 2 for 26?

00:10:15
I mean what is that 4 points? You got 4 points out of Jmar.

00:10:17
That's enough for me to clear. I wish I would have had that.

00:10:21
Yeah, that sounds horrible, so whatever.

00:10:23
So that's pretty good. As far as the games themselves,

00:10:26
what we can go to, the island games because everybody is

00:10:29
watching those. We have to start off with

00:10:30
Dallas, Philly. Obviously Philly hung on.

00:10:33
Really it felt like 24 to 20 because CD Lamb, phenomenal

00:10:38
player. He still had a pretty good

00:10:39
fantasy game for you, but would have had a better one had he

00:10:42
caught the one that hit him with a face mask and hit him in the

00:10:44
eights. Then the diving play at the end.

00:10:48
That was weird right, surprising so it Philly look they got some

00:10:52
chinks in the armor a little bit and it's Dallas mean they look

00:10:57
better than what I thought they would look.

00:10:58
They I thought they'd come out flat.

00:11:00
I totally thought they'd suck. Williams like look serviceable

00:11:04
as a running back. He did.

00:11:06
That was surprising all by itself, but pretty heavy

00:11:08
takeaways from that game. No, yeah, I was surprised that

00:11:12
that Dallas kept it that close. And you're right, they had, I

00:11:15
mean, they had a chance to win it.

00:11:17
Really. They played well enough to win

00:11:18
it. They did.

00:11:20
That was brutal. If you're a Cowboys fan, sorry,

00:11:22
but Billy. Yeah.

00:11:24
I think for Jalen Hurts, here's what we thought he was.

00:11:28
He does not pass. He's a running back.

00:11:31
They can throw a great. Running back a great.

00:11:33
Man, we can't ever argue. He wins all the time.

00:11:36
He just wins a lot of games. Boy, he's.

00:11:39
You mentioned you mentioned Jamar Chase, but A.J.

00:11:41
Brown also had it. Laid an egg.

00:11:44
No, no contribution really to that first game.

00:11:47
As as as did Devante Smith. Like Slim Reaper. 3 catches for

00:11:53
16 yards. That is hurting.

00:11:56
J Brown was less than that, right?

00:11:58
Yeah, one point 1.11. .1. Gets for 8:00.

00:12:02
Eight. Yeah, pretty brutal and one

00:12:04
target. He only had one target.

00:12:07
And it was in the fourth quarter, mid fourth quarter he.

00:12:10
Was one of us that. Kind of joking that was so

00:12:12
madding last year to have AJ Browns and just watch him be

00:12:15
open every play and and Hurts just will not.

00:12:18
Throw the ball to Hertz will throw and get this.

00:12:21
I mean, Hertz outrushed Saquon Barkley.

00:12:24
OK, Yeah. So he had 14 carries for 62

00:12:28
yards and two tuddies. Saquon had 18 carries for 60

00:12:32
yards and a tuddy. That's.

00:12:33
Crazy. Like, I mean, honestly, you said

00:12:37
cheeks, the armor. We're going to learn a lot this

00:12:38
week. They play the Chiefs, you know,

00:12:43
at Arrowhead. They're still obviously a very

00:12:45
good team. But man, it it's just crazy to

00:12:48
me that they won a Super Bowl with Jalen Hurts as a

00:12:50
quarterback. It blows my mind he's been to. 2

00:12:54
I don't know dude. Yeah, he just, he plays well

00:12:56
enough to win. And if you followed our

00:12:58
shrewdness power parlor, we should have taken 2 rushing

00:13:01
touchdowns from instead of 2 passing touchdowns.

00:13:03
We would have hit nicely on that one.

00:13:05
But regardless is what it is. I want to jump into another game

00:13:09
that kind of stands out to me as well.

00:13:11
For one, it's supposed to be a defensive struggle.

00:13:14
Pittsburgh Jets Pittsburgh come top 3432 on the road with Old

00:13:19
Man Rogers. Jeez, I don't know.

00:13:21
He must have. Signed a contract.

00:13:23
With the devil like 4 what? 4 touchdowns, right?

00:13:26
And just I. Mean on the flip side, Justin

00:13:29
Fields looked great, like was actually was running the ball.

00:13:33
He did everything. They should have won the game.

00:13:35
If The Jets get 32 points, I guess you could say the same for

00:13:39
Pittsburgh. If they score 30 points, they

00:13:41
should win the game. Those are two defenses that

00:13:43
should hold people down. They had a 60 yard field goal to

00:13:47
win the game. Yeah, yeah, right.

00:13:49
It came down to just a launched kick right at the buzzer.

00:13:52
So it's right. That's that's a coin flip game.

00:13:54
It was, but for fantasy purposes and for Guillotine, I think you

00:13:57
can feel pretty comfortable with Justin Fields looking pretty

00:14:00
good. Garrett Wilson was better than

00:14:02
what people thought because, like, well, they're almost.

00:14:06
Almost out 100 yards in a teddy. Yeah, but just the passing is

00:14:10
what we didn't expect to be good for Fields.

00:14:12
Reese Hall, he looked pretty good.

00:14:13
He was getting the lion's share of the carry.

00:14:15
Raylin Allen obviously was pretty serviceable still.

00:14:17
So there's some some players in these offenses doing well.

00:14:20
I think Jalen Warren and Caleb Johnson, those probably were not

00:14:24
what you're looking for. Caleb Johnson specifically, I

00:14:26
think he expected to be the Najee Harris from last year.

00:14:29
And he had what, a couple carries?

00:14:30
Yeah. One carry for -2 yards.

00:14:33
Yeah, that's. I don't know anyone.

00:14:35
I think that they played Gainwell the first half more

00:14:39
than they played Warren. And I was.

00:14:41
They got super worried because I drafted Warren.

00:14:44
Yeah. Yeah.

00:14:45
And then he, he, yeah. And then he, he finally

00:14:49
contributed second-half. He still got like 11 points or

00:14:51
something, but yeah. When Caleb Johnson was out,

00:14:55
rushed by Aaron Rodgers, that says a lot about your day.

00:14:58
That's that's a rough, rough day.

00:15:01
And then I want to pop into another interesting game.

00:15:05
Colts. Dolphins.

00:15:06
So we have the other Lamar Jackson White.

00:15:10
Lamar Daniel Jones came out of nowhere and said, Remember Me, I

00:15:17
was actually good two years ago and then I was got off the last

00:15:19
year and got traded and then never played again.

00:15:21
And then I just beat out Anthony Richardson.

00:15:24
That's a pretty good game. He looked pretty good.

00:15:27
Like he he looks serviceable. If you need a quarterback.

00:15:31
He is running the ball. He rushed one in.

00:15:34
He is passing pretty well. He's hitting.

00:15:35
Pitman did not hit Josh Downs. Thanks.

00:15:39
But he like Tyler Warren. Tyler Warren had plenty of

00:15:42
catches. He looked really good in Week 1.

00:15:44
So anyone else has stood out to you guys in that one other than

00:15:46
how bad Miami was and I think that one goes without say?

00:15:50
Yeah, that's that's that was my take away from that game.

00:15:53
It's like how poorly Miami had prepared for that.

00:15:57
It just seemed like they were horrible, not on the same page.

00:15:59
The The seat is really hot now for Mr. McDaniel and like, yeah,

00:16:04
for a guy who's supposed to be an offensive genius to put up A8

00:16:09
spot at Indy is not that's not gonna excite the fan base too

00:16:14
much so. No.

00:16:17
And the only guy that from a fantasy standpoint, like, I

00:16:22
mean, a chain was OK, you know, but.

00:16:26
That's OK. That was he got in on a

00:16:28
touchdown or it would have been terrible.

00:16:30
I mean, that was good, he. I mean, he was, he was at least.

00:16:34
I mean, offense doesn't, offense doesn't look good.

00:16:36
But he was 85 of their 211 yards.

00:16:40
So there's basically one guy who's worthy of of looking at on

00:16:45
the Dolphins right now. That's it.

00:16:47
So Geo impact players for Carolina and Jacksonville.

00:16:50
Holy crap, Travis Etienne, where did you come from?

00:16:53
You were sucking all last. Year, I thought.

00:16:55
I thought he was barely going to get in.

00:16:57
I know Tank Bigsby had taken so many of the carries last year.

00:17:00
People are thinking he was going to get the two third one third

00:17:03
share and Etienne just blew up. I think that surprise, if it

00:17:07
didn't surprise you, bullcrap, you're lying and let your like

00:17:11
his family member and he knew the inside details, but that was

00:17:14
a shock. Back from the dead.

00:17:16
It was, but Brian. His brother's in the league now,

00:17:18
right? So, yeah, Brian.

00:17:20
Thomas junior first round pick in guillotine.

00:17:23
He ran one in and that was kind of it for his day.

00:17:27
So that was there's only brighter days ahead for Brian

00:17:30
Thomas junior owners as far as Ted or McMillan.

00:17:33
On the flip side, he looked pretty good.

00:17:35
He looks like he's going to be the real deal because Bryce

00:17:37
Young was horrible this game and he still was hitting T Mac I

00:17:42
think enough to feel comfortable playing him weekly.

00:17:44
Do you guys agree? With him, I was, I agree, I was

00:17:47
shocked at the step back Bryce Young took.

00:17:49
I really thought he was playing a lot better and he just made

00:17:53
some really bad decisions that did not look crisp in this game.

00:17:56
So yeah, that's not a good sign for a team.

00:17:59
I thought it was going to rebound a little bit this year,

00:18:01
yeah, but I think. That taking feeling out of that

00:18:04
lineup and and Jalen Coker got hurt like 10 days ago and that

00:18:08
was who they expected to kind of be that slot guy.

00:18:10
So you basically lost your two safety blankets that a big

00:18:14
impact. So I don't know, they just

00:18:17
seemed to lose 2 guys that covered that area that he didn't

00:18:20
have in this game. He didn't have any safety

00:18:22
blankets that showed Travis Hunter.

00:18:26
Yeah, Travis Hunter on the flip side though, right is one that

00:18:28
we were kind of wasn't sure he played basically all offense.

00:18:31
So I think some of our, I don't know, our concern was that he's

00:18:35
going to be playing both ways a lot.

00:18:37
He played a select handful of plays as cornerback, but the

00:18:41
lion's share was all in offense and they were feeding them.

00:18:43
So we're kind of right about him feeding them, but we were not

00:18:46
right about. Team targets, Yeah, led the team

00:18:49
in targets, which was a little surprising to me.

00:18:51
He didn't bust anything though. Everything was short, which I

00:18:56
was a little surprised by, so 6 catches for 33 yards.

00:18:59
But he's obviously got to be really involved.

00:19:01
And if you look at, you know, how they played, we talked about

00:19:04
Trevor Lawrence being in a really important year and he he

00:19:07
played much better. So we'll see he.

00:19:09
Did I like that one? Got to play 17 more or 16 more

00:19:14
so. That's right.

00:19:15
That's right. Not against Carolina.

00:19:17
We'll. See if we can stay the same 10

00:19:19
weeks from now, yeah? One of the takeaways also, so we

00:19:22
were talking about Tank Bigsby. I mean, he's now traded.

00:19:24
He's now a second or third string running back for Philly,

00:19:28
which means basial Tootin. If he's been sitting on your

00:19:30
bench, he is probably going to get more playing time.

00:19:33
So that to me that's an endorsement of what the team

00:19:36
thinks about basial Tootin rather than they dislike Tank

00:19:39
Bigsby, who I think had almost 800 yards rushing last year and

00:19:43
6 to 8 touchdowns, I can't remember exactly, but somewhere

00:19:45
in that range. So the fact he went to Philly, I

00:19:47
think for like a bag of Pringles and some Rolos, a fifth and

00:19:51
sixth round pick or something like that.

00:19:53
But I don't know if that means Philly's what about Will Shipley

00:19:56
or if they just want a more depth.

00:19:57
So regardless, I think it's probably a good trade for both

00:20:00
teams because they'll fit in there.

00:20:01
I don't know if it's good for take Bigsby.

00:20:03
He's not going to get on the field much with Saquon, but you

00:20:06
never know, man. Blow out games, They probably

00:20:07
bring him in and put Saquin on the bench.

00:20:10
Jizz, I think facial tootin is available in our league, is he

00:20:13
not? Facial tootin, I think he is

00:20:16
available. I think maybe whoever was in the

00:20:19
league, you know this team on the on the team.

00:20:22
Who's? On the.

00:20:23
Team. That got stopped.

00:20:24
Yesterday I love this week, living it up, living it up.

00:20:30
But that's the price you pay. It's the penalty you get for.

00:20:33
Getting your head? Yeah.

00:20:35
All right, Saints and Cardinals. I think some takeaways from me

00:20:39
is that Kyler's still going to run some Spencer Rattler.

00:20:42
Not as bad as I thought he'd be. Crystal Labe. better than I

00:20:44
thought he'd be. He's not a vegetable yet, so he

00:20:48
didn't get knocked out yet. So it's just any given week.

00:20:51
But the Cardinals, we kind of thought they'd blow out New

00:20:54
Orleans because the Orleans don't have a lot of talent other

00:20:56
than Kamara and I guess a lobby. But like I said, the lobby is

00:21:00
one hit away. It seems like every play, like

00:21:04
holding your breath. But that game was surprising to

00:21:07
me. Surprising to me that the Saints

00:21:10
played as well as they did. What do you guys think about

00:21:12
that game for Guillotine Fantasy Impact?

00:21:14
So like I mentioned at halftime, I was at the Monday night game.

00:21:18
I was really down on my quarterback selection.

00:21:22
I was not looking very promising for JJ McCarthy.

00:21:25
I was looking through like, OK, who am I gonna pick up as a

00:21:29
different quarterback this week? And I I noticed that Radler had

00:21:34
11 something points and McCarthy had two at the time.

00:21:38
And I was like, right, that is gonna be the death of me is to

00:21:42
have to right pick up Spencer Radler as my quarterback.

00:21:46
Battler, that's that's great for the bottom barrel.

00:21:49
I will say from a faith standpoint, 2 things on this on

00:21:52
the Saints side, well on the Cardinal side, I will say Marvin

00:21:56
Harrison Junior and Trey McBride.

00:21:58
That's it. That's the show.

00:22:00
And Trey still didn't get in the end zone for whatever reason.

00:22:03
Yeah, they refused to throw it over the end zone.

00:22:05
They. Just won't do it.

00:22:07
He's wide open too. He was naked on the rollout,

00:22:09
right in his shovel. Pass right into James Connor.

00:22:13
Connor, yeah. And I'm like, what?

00:22:16
Trey McBride had eight yards on his guy.

00:22:19
Hello. Right over here.

00:22:21
Yeah, Shovel. Pass on the on the Saints, Joan

00:22:25
Johnson. I'm surprised at how involved he

00:22:28
is in the office. Yeah, So 11 targets for your

00:22:31
tight end. Wow.

00:22:32
OK, so that's a lot for a tight end.

00:22:35
So if you're looking for a guy there, he could be 1.

00:22:38
And Alvin Kamara's not dead yet. He's got another touchdown and

00:22:45
they fed him the ball 11 times, so he's he's still the guy.

00:22:49
Yep, I guess that's the only player we were drafting on that

00:22:52
team, to be honest. And it looks like there might be

00:22:55
one more. So Juan Johnson, we don't go

00:22:57
crazy, but if you have no George Kittle, who got hurt and there's

00:23:02
not much out there, you could. Do worse you could you spell his

00:23:05
first? Name Speaking of people all

00:23:10
right, let's go to the next game again, just limited to fancy

00:23:12
impact. So Bengals Browns, I mean the

00:23:14
Browns Browns their way out of winning the game.

00:23:16
Oh. My God, Joe.

00:23:18
Burrow looked terrible, Jamar Chase not much and Chase Brown

00:23:22
looked pretty good though. I mean, he had his points and

00:23:24
catches, but I think that was kind of shocking on the Brown

00:23:27
side. One of the guys we talked about

00:23:29
in the rookie deals, Harold Fannin, junior, he.

00:23:33
Was looking at a nice game. Best FBS season of all time and

00:23:37
I think. He's available, Yeah, probably

00:23:39
is. Yeah, I think he is available.

00:23:44
Yeah. So he's he.

00:23:45
May or may not have played my one of my bids for this week.

00:23:50
Waiver, waiver picks. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I, I saw him.

00:23:54
I say, George. Carroll passing for 113 yards.

00:23:58
Yeah, that that could have killed a lot of player.

00:24:01
I mean, besides, we talked about Jamar Chase, T Higgins, T

00:24:05
Higgins, he he disappears a lot in in fantasy seasons, but.

00:24:11
Evan Higgins, Evan. Higgins don't forget the middle

00:24:15
man. I know he's just a three name

00:24:17
guy, I'm telling you, but you know, if you look at that, if

00:24:22
I'm the Bengals, I'm playing pre pre season games next year

00:24:26
because for whatever reason they.

00:24:29
They're. Not ever ready in Week 1.

00:24:33
I mean, ever. They look nothing like the Week

00:24:36
8 Bengals ever. So like something's got to

00:24:40
change with what's going on with their regimen.

00:24:42
Like you can't consistently come out and play like this.

00:24:44
And it's scary from a fantasy standpoint as a guillotine owner

00:24:47
because these are high picks like Joe Burrow, Tamar Chase, T

00:24:53
Higgins, these are guys you count on.

00:24:56
And. All three I'm sure what very.

00:24:58
Usually. Yeah, first two rounds for all

00:25:00
three of those guys, right? It's crazy.

00:25:04
Let's go to the next game. Actually, one more.

00:25:06
I want to hit on that one. So Cleveland Browns, I think

00:25:08
someone that a lot of people are high on David and Joku,

00:25:11
especially with Flacco back in there against that Cincinnati

00:25:14
defense, that ratty, terrible, crappy Cincinnati defense.

00:25:18
And Joku was brutal, man. I think he's so bad.

00:25:22
Yeah. And for again, he's someone that

00:25:24
I don't know, I mean, tight in top 10, but three catches for

00:25:27
37, that's not what you're wanting out of that guy.

00:25:30
So no. Especially when Bannon was 7 for

00:25:33
63. The bat tied in.

00:25:35
I'm telling that guy's explosive.

00:25:36
I love Harold Fannon, so I'm glad you got.

00:25:38
Them shocked by that too. Also, hopefully you're in a

00:25:42
guillotine league and you don't have to deal with this, but stay

00:25:45
away from the kicker. Any kicker that doesn't have a

00:25:49
vowel in his name you need to stay away from, and he is.

00:25:52
In guillotine we don't use kickers.

00:25:53
Chisen move on. That's Schmidt, Schmidt,

00:25:57
Schmidt. What it is moving on, because we

00:26:00
know what we don't care about is kickers in guillotine.

00:26:02
Not actually at the truth anymore.

00:26:05
Not. Going to kick anymore is what

00:26:06
his last name is. And we're going to the Raiders,

00:26:09
Patriots game, all right? Brock Bowers looked awesome, was

00:26:13
worth every single ounce of a pick.

00:26:15
He took them if he took them early, and if you got him late

00:26:18
you got lucky because you got someone else plus him.

00:26:20
He does have a potential concerning injury with his knee,

00:26:24
but he says it's fine. There's doesn't seem to be any

00:26:26
doubt he's playing this week. He looked awesome.

00:26:29
Christian Gente didn't look bad. It's just I think the Patriots

00:26:32
defense is better than people give him credit for, which is

00:26:34
something we have been saying. Mike Frabel has good defensive

00:26:37
teams and showed he had a good game plan, but he still is able

00:26:41
to bounce one in on a hard fought run at the goal line.

00:26:45
He's going to continue to get them.

00:26:46
Geno Smith looked the part. He looked really good, I think

00:26:50
at what, 340 yards or something? I mean, Geno was great. 362.

00:26:54
Yeah, and Jacoby Myers was getting his, so I guess that I

00:26:58
want to get traded. I'm just kidding.

00:27:00
I'm fine. And he had it.

00:27:02
I mean, I'm still going to play. I'm still going to play.

00:27:04
I just want to be traded. Exactly.

00:27:07
But but 8 for 97. So he came and not only played,

00:27:10
he kicked ass. That was good.

00:27:12
Side decks? How about K Sean Booty?

00:27:15
Yeah, that's a great one. And he was one that's kind of

00:27:19
trending up on some of the kind of the fantasy list as you're

00:27:23
going because it it kind of got closer and closer and closer to

00:27:26
the first week. And he'd basically solidified

00:27:29
the opposite spot of Stefan Digs.

00:27:30
And Stefan Digs was no sure thing.

00:27:32
So he was kind of wide receiver one for a little bit, but he was

00:27:37
in this Game 6 for 103 for K Sean Booty.

00:27:39
So he came all the way up and looking this guy up, apparently

00:27:43
he was one of the top prep receivers in the country.

00:27:46
And then he went to college and he had a Goodyear freshman year.

00:27:50
And then he either got hurt or suspended or something weird

00:27:52
happened. And so they just kind of fell

00:27:54
draft stock and Patriots got him really late.

00:27:56
But man, kids Got Talent. He showed out week 1 and

00:28:00
opposite Stefan Diggs, who still had 6 or 57.

00:28:03
Nothing wrong with that booty. Yeah, it looked really good.

00:28:06
He he may be available in leagues.

00:28:08
He may be. So if you need somebody, he's

00:28:11
not a little sad. A little.

00:28:13
Scared, A little scared by the Patriots running game.

00:28:17
Yeah, really, really disappointed that they they had

00:28:21
Ramandre Stevenson and Trayvon Henderson, who kind of did

00:28:25
nothing. Well, they had 12 total carries.

00:28:27
It's hard to do something with nothing, right?

00:28:29
But as you say that, but Trayvon Henderson averaged 5.4 yards at

00:28:33
carry. I don't know what you want.

00:28:34
Just give more carries. That's what that means to me.

00:28:37
And sluggish Ramandre. They were just, they were

00:28:40
playing from behind, right? Well, it's cuz they.

00:28:43
Were they didn't run the ball over the beginning?

00:28:46
Yeah, that's what I'm. Saying though then they

00:28:48
couldn't. They became 1 dimensional.

00:28:50
Yeah, but Travian Henderson, he looked pretty good.

00:28:53
He still got 6 catches so for. Yeah, that's where I liked him

00:28:57
more like he seemed to be. He's he's gonna be very useful

00:29:01
out of the backfield for sure. Yeah, but he had more yard

00:29:03
dressing on less attempts, so I think he's just a pretty dynamic

00:29:06
player and if they get him out in space, good things are gonna

00:29:09
happen All in all for him. So I'm not too worried about

00:29:11
Trayvon Henderson and I think he's gonna be a great player

00:29:13
going forward. Just just how much did I think

00:29:16
Hunter Henry had a decent game too, didn't he?

00:29:19
Didn't he had like 5 or 6 targets?

00:29:21
He had he actually had eight targets, 4 catches for 66 yards.

00:29:25
OK, Yeah. And that's a guy that we had

00:29:27
talked about and I think he's he's going to do, he's going to

00:29:31
have a good season. Yeah, I really liked him as as

00:29:34
my tight end. He got taken before I could grab

00:29:36
him in the draft, but. Yeah.

00:29:38
Glad to see him off to a good. Start for sure.

00:29:40
All right, San Fran, Seattle. So this was a game.

00:29:43
Was McCaffrey going to play with his calf?

00:29:46
And he did and he looked like a stud.

00:29:48
SO22 for 69 yards. But again, what McCaffrey does

00:29:52
is the 9 catches for 73 yards as well.

00:29:55
McCaffrey. So he's the engine of that team

00:29:58
and as long as he's plays healthy, he's going to be great.

00:30:01
Brian Robinson, junior, again, the pickup they got a couple

00:30:03
weeks ago in the trade with Washington, it was the backup.

00:30:07
So 9 carriers for 33 yards. But he's not going to do much

00:30:11
with Christian healthy. That's just a fact.

00:30:12
Unless it's a blowout game or something happens, he's not

00:30:15
really useful in my opinion to have on your roster.

00:30:17
Good news is flex. The good news is Mcgaffrey will

00:30:22
not be healthy so. Well ironically he's one of the

00:30:26
more healthy people on the Niners right now because they

00:30:29
lost Kittle. Jawan Jennings is out.

00:30:31
Brock Purdy is questionable for this week.

00:30:33
The only one without a designation is freaking CMC.

00:30:36
Screw, he's like, screw you, Chisholm.

00:30:39
Maybe they'll maybe they'll just roll with Wildcat or something

00:30:42
this week and your. Wish though every play anyway.

00:30:48
Exactly, but Joan Jennings probably killed you anyway if

00:30:51
you played him 2 for 16. That kills.

00:30:54
George Kittle was mean 4 for 25 but at least he got that tutty

00:30:57
before he went out. That was huge.

00:30:59
Ricky Pearsall again, I think he answered some questions.

00:31:01
Can he be a #1 white out mean 4 for 108?

00:31:04
He didn't get a lot. He didn't get a ton of mean. 7

00:31:08
targets isn't horrible, but 4 catches.

00:31:12
Sad, sad thing is that's the most targets besides McCaffrey.

00:31:16
You had ten. Yeah, like your running back is

00:31:19
getting targeted 10 times out of the backfield and carrying it 22

00:31:22
times. That is a one man show defined

00:31:26
right there. I mean.

00:31:27
Yeah, I mean, Seattle's seen the San Francisco 49ers play

00:31:31
football before, right? They know like.

00:31:36
Do they even play them ever? I mean.

00:31:38
You not have. Twice a year.

00:31:41
Yeah, not have a linebacker like guard against the flat pass to

00:31:46
see him see. And I got and I got to give a

00:31:47
shout out. Old friend alert Sky Moore had a

00:31:49
fumble in this game, so he's still shot.

00:31:52
He got a stack, He got a stack. He didn't get any catches last

00:31:56
year or so. He's off to a better start.

00:31:58
He was on. Wasn't he on your brother's

00:31:59
roster? I think your brother on the

00:32:05
bench, on his on his bench, but my brother is.

00:32:07
Going to have a great time. Give me a call this week.

00:32:12
So my chief, terrible is it Whatever, all right, on the

00:32:16
Seattle side, here's some reason for concern on a couple for me

00:32:19
anyway, is Zach Charbonnay out rushed Kenneth Walker and

00:32:24
Kenneth Walker if I'd taken a couple?

00:32:26
Rounds earlier. Yeah, and totally out.

00:32:29
Period. So. 12 for 47 versus 10 for 20

00:32:32
for Kenneth Walker. So Zach Charbonnay continues to

00:32:35
show well and Seattle clearly didn't have a problem giving him

00:32:39
more carries. Sam Darnold did not do great. 16

00:32:43
completions for only 150 yards. That is not impressive in when

00:32:48
we call that the business. I don't know, but Smith and

00:32:51
Jiggba was. So that was good. 9 for 1:24.

00:32:54
But then you go to Cooper Cup, like the opposite.

00:32:56
We had to have had a pretty good game if Smith and Jiggba had all

00:32:58
that, 2 for 15. Just pedestrian.

00:33:01
And it's very clear that Darnell has a favorite because 13

00:33:05
targets for Smith and Jigba and three for Cooper Cup.

00:33:09
So like, it is, he's dialed in. Yeah, on one guy right now.

00:33:14
So that's not great if you're a Cooper Cup owner.

00:33:17
That's what he did last year for Justin Jefferson.

00:33:19
It worked out great. So that's true.

00:33:21
There are some benefits to knowing that he will only throw

00:33:24
to your guy if it's Jackson, Smith and Jigba.

00:33:25
Yeah, well, but I thought that too.

00:33:27
But I also saw Sam Darnold throw a lot to Jordan Addison last

00:33:31
year. Well.

00:33:32
True. Each game is.

00:33:33
Rarely both though. It's kind of like, I mean often

00:33:38
do they both have 100 yard games?

00:33:39
Because when Justin Jefferson was out, Jordan Addison was a #1

00:33:43
clear. Game, that's true.

00:33:44
And then Hawkinson was out for a big chunk and he came back and

00:33:47
it was a TJ Hawkinson day one time and he had 120.

00:33:51
So it's just, yeah, I don't know, maybe it's just a game

00:33:53
plan, but we'll see. We'll see.

00:33:54
Maybe Sam just he picks his guy for the week.

00:34:00
Until they play a lockdown corner, that's going to be the

00:34:03
game plans, right? If they have somebody match up

00:34:06
on JSN then they're going to hopefully have to spread it

00:34:09
around to other targets. That's all right.

00:34:11
So briefly, I want to go over this last couple games because

00:34:14
they're not really that interesting.

00:34:15
Tennessee, Denver was what we thought it would be, just a

00:34:18
bunch of defense, not much happening, but alerts.

00:34:21
We'll go to those in a minute. But the Broncos Bo Dicks didn't

00:34:24
look that good and Cortland Sutton was all right.

00:34:27
But I think when you look at the running back, so RJ Harvey is

00:34:30
the one everybody wanted to get for Denver and he did get some,

00:34:34
but he only had six carries. But you're like 70 yards biatch.

00:34:38
That's true, yeah. He had a big huge run so he had

00:34:40
a 50 yarder and that's the only reason he did anything.

00:34:43
Otherwise he was 520, which is awesome, but it's not good too

00:34:47
much. So I still wouldn't feel super

00:34:49
comfortable if I'm a fantasy player unless he's a flex spot

00:34:52
and a flex spot only. RJ Harvey should not be on your

00:34:55
starting 8 as of yet. JK Dobbins dominated the carries

00:34:59
still at 16 for 63. I think it's gonna look like

00:35:01
that for the next couple weeks too unless something happens to

00:35:03
JK Dobbins. What do you guys think on that?

00:35:05
Are you on that JK Dobbins take or do you feel fine starting RJ

00:35:10
Harvey in your flex? I think you're right.

00:35:12
I mean, we talked last week or week before about Sean Payton

00:35:16
and his tendencies. He likes the veteran running

00:35:19
backs. He's not gonna give the young

00:35:21
guy a shot until he's earned it, right?

00:35:24
So having one long run, that's great.

00:35:26
And having five, you know, decent runs, that's a good

00:35:29
start. But yeah, I think it's gonna be

00:35:31
maybe three to four more weeks before he's gonna carry anywhere

00:35:35
near what JK Dobbins is getting right now.

00:35:37
Yeah, I was going to. Cheers.

00:35:39
What do you think? Yeah, no, I agree.

00:35:41
I don't think, I don't think like the problem.

00:35:44
The the issue for him is if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

00:35:48
And JK Dobbins has got a lot more experience.

00:35:51
Yeah, he, you know, he probably doesn't have the spring in his

00:35:54
step. But if he's delivering what he's

00:35:56
delivering, well, he's delivering.

00:35:59
Catching in four yards of carry and you don't think that's

00:36:02
really all that John Payton wants?

00:36:04
Evan Ingram On the flip side, we thought there'd become more 3

00:36:08
catches for 21 yards. I don't know, but he kind of got

00:36:11
hurt too, so he's one of those. If that was your starting tight

00:36:14
end, I'd probably try and find someone else this week to at

00:36:17
least get you through game time decision because I'm not sure if

00:36:20
he's going to be playing for sure how much he's going to

00:36:23
practice this week. We look at the other side,

00:36:25
Tennessee, we thought that'd be a terrible matchup.

00:36:27
It absolutely was. Cam Ward was not good.

00:36:30
Tony Pollard was not good, really sucked.

00:36:33
I mean, it's just what we thought it'd be.

00:36:34
But again, I think there's gonna be better days ahead for the

00:36:37
Tennessee offense. You're just not going to Mile

00:36:39
High. That's a tough start.

00:36:41
One, I mean, that's, yeah, I can't imagine it was first

00:36:44
assignment for a rookie quarterback then, yeah.

00:36:47
Maybe going against The Jets in the Netherlands or?

00:36:49
Something right I was 1 score game.

00:36:52
I I will give Cam a little credit.

00:36:54
He didn't throw a pay turn the ball over.

00:36:56
Yeah. So like I expect the turnovers

00:37:01
multiple from support in this game.

00:37:03
So I mean, he's only 12 to 28 for 1:12.

00:37:06
That's bad. But as a rookie starting as a

00:37:09
rookie start, I mean he almost out through Joe Burrow.

00:37:13
So I mean. Yes, that is true.

00:37:16
I'll bet he had more than 8 yards the 1st.

00:37:18
Quarter, Yeah, right. So.

00:37:20
That's my quarterback. But that that offense is is like

00:37:24
even not at Mile High, that's not going to be good.

00:37:27
It's not going to be a good offense regardless.

00:37:30
No, so don't go here for your fantasy points.

00:37:32
They did. That's it.

00:37:33
I mean, they did show. I thought their defense played

00:37:35
well against Denver on the road. I agree.

00:37:37
Yep, I mean, they did. Whether it was Bonex or a

00:37:40
combination of the Titans defense and Bonex, they forced

00:37:44
him to turn the ball over two or three times and.

00:37:46
Yeah, Bonex was way too loose with the ball, man like.

00:37:50
Yeah, he's trying to force stuff for some reason.

00:37:52
If he does that against any other team, they're losing.

00:37:54
Was that game? Yeah.

00:37:55
The one, the one knock that I had on Cam Ward, he took a

00:37:58
really bad sack, lost like 15 yards trying to do too much

00:38:03
right. Just just eat it when you see

00:38:05
that a £300 guy is coming right at you.

00:38:08
Throw it out a bow. Yeah, get out of the pocket,

00:38:11
throw it away. Don't try to do anything fancy.

00:38:14
Lamar Jackson did the exact same thing and then broke it for 20

00:38:17
yards and actually hit totally crop bed on that one.

00:38:19
So sometimes it works, but it only seems to work for Lamar

00:38:23
Jackson. So yes, unless you're Lamar, I

00:38:28
wouldn't try. It's a little.

00:38:29
Different. A little different.

00:38:31
All right, let's go to Lions Packers quick this the Packers

00:38:35
Chisholm, they showed up. They're your Super Bowl

00:38:38
participant. Pick, tell.

00:38:39
You what? I'm feeling good about my pick

00:38:41
after Week 1 because the Lions, they just took the Lions and

00:38:45
went. I mean.

00:38:46
Just beam about the head and shoulder like that was.

00:38:50
That was frightening if you're a Lions fan because this is the

00:38:53
Lions window we've talked about for a while.

00:38:55
But their defense did not know like it knew what to do.

00:39:01
And they did a great job of mixing it up.

00:39:03
If you look at what the Packers did, they passed for 188 yards.

00:39:07
They ran for 78 yards. The Lions couldn't run.

00:39:11
I know I was just looking at so you have Jamar Gibbs 9 for 19,

00:39:16
David Montgomery 11 for 25, two point 3 and 2.1 yards per carry.

00:39:20
What I thought the Green Bay Packers traded their defensive

00:39:23
tackle run stopper to the Cowboys for Micah Parsons.

00:39:26
Right. How do?

00:39:27
They get better at stopping the run.

00:39:29
That's like they're just fine. I think like we got, we got more

00:39:32
man. So Dallas and this is a game.

00:39:35
This is this is a game where you have on the lion side, from a

00:39:38
fantasy standpoint, you got a lot of high picks here.

00:39:41
You got Gibbs, you got Aman raw, you got Laporta.

00:39:45
The only one that had a decent game was Laporta.

00:39:49
You know, he had, he had a lot of catches, a lot of targets.

00:39:52
Amo, Montgomery are good, you know, Tier 2 picks.

00:39:55
Golf is. So I think golf is showing up

00:40:00
like a lot of people predicted. Right.

00:40:02
We had him dropped quite a bit in our rankings.

00:40:04
Yeah, he's and so did fantasy. Pros.

00:40:06
Yeah, and. Who got the touchdown Our The

00:40:09
rookie we previewed Isaac. Tesla.

00:40:12
Tesla. Garbage time at the end, but

00:40:14
still it. Was a garbage time.

00:40:15
Yeah, but here's here's one of the stats that stood out to me.

00:40:18
And like, that can't be right. It's got to be a typo.

00:40:21
Amir Gibbs receiving 10 catches. You're like, whoa, he must have

00:40:25
had a truckload of yards. 31. How do you have a 3.1 a

00:40:29
reception? I thought of a typo.

00:40:33
It's not a typo. That's legitimate.

00:40:35
And I just could not believe that was accurate.

00:40:38
He caught all ten of his targets and did absolutely nothing with

00:40:41
him. So that was crazy.

00:40:42
Yeah, But yeah, anyway, any details from that game that

00:40:45
stood out? I think for the Packers

00:40:46
whiteouts, it's not gonna be winning to depend on each week

00:40:49
you're gonna. Be rotating.

00:40:50
It's a whole bag of who knows every week.

00:40:55
A bag of twos and threes and somebody will step up each week.

00:40:58
Golden had a couple of plays, Dobbs had a couple plays, Jane

00:41:01
Reed had a couple plays. Include the touchdown, which is

00:41:03
huge, but there's no way I would count on a Green Bay whiteout to

00:41:08
be consistent. I'd be.

00:41:10
AI just see a bunch of like C pluses lining up on the line.

00:41:14
Totally that's it. Maybe I'll tell you what I did

00:41:16
like E minus yeah, I I did like Josh Jacobs in that game.

00:41:21
I like cuz he's, he's still, he's running.

00:41:23
Really. He didn't have a ton of yards,

00:41:25
but he had a touchdown, I think. Yeah, he did have a touchdown,

00:41:28
didn't. He and he did and.

00:41:30
Jacobs match. He is definitely the guy that

00:41:33
it's one of the only true 1 running backs you're going to

00:41:37
find. They're not rushing it.

00:41:39
There's nobody else that got. I mean, they may have had a

00:41:40
couple other carries from other people, but for the most part it

00:41:43
was his show. That's right.

00:41:45
So I think when you look at Detroit concern, you look at

00:41:48
Green Bay wide receivers gonna be a carousel.

00:41:51
But I think Jordan love probably be pretty decent for the most

00:41:53
part. All right, Texans and Rams.

00:41:55
I was just we're not going to talk much about this Puka.

00:41:57
Niku is a badass. He came through.

00:41:59
He broke his skull that wouldn't concussion protocol still came

00:42:03
back, went out again, came back again.

00:42:06
He's a beast. Nico Collins still really good.

00:42:08
But Houston, I don't know, man, that offense does not look good.

00:42:12
And Nick Chubb was exactly what he thought I'd look like, slow

00:42:14
and crappy. So if you just I hope you didn't

00:42:17
spend the pic. I didn't even put them on our

00:42:19
list. I mean, he end up being

00:42:21
serviceable. OK, so 13 for 60, that was all

00:42:25
they did. I mean, it's not that bad.

00:42:27
It's just the offense looked atrocious.

00:42:29
So I don't know. CJ Stroud, man, he maybe he's

00:42:32
just not as good as he was year 1.

00:42:34
And that was the best he'll ever be.

00:42:36
I don't. Know that line, they didn't do

00:42:38
anything to shore up their offensive line problems that

00:42:41
they had last year and it's it's going to be a problem this year

00:42:45
again. As somebody who spent a first

00:42:47
round pick on Nico Collins, I'm very concerned to only have 5

00:42:52
targets. 3 and 25 is gross, right?

00:42:56
I mean, and he is so good to have 5 targets in a game where

00:43:00
like you needed to throw the ball, you know, like that's,

00:43:04
that's not good. I don't like it.

00:43:06
I agree with you. I feel like CJ Stroud, is he, is

00:43:09
he really year 2 CJ Stroud? Maybe he is.

00:43:11
Maybe that's what he is. We'll see.

00:43:13
LA is pretty good. That defense, the defense is

00:43:15
great. It's overreaction is we're not

00:43:17
overreacting. It's just that's right.

00:43:19
I thought he'd show better in Week 1 is really what I thought.

00:43:21
You. Too.

00:43:22
It's just observations. Observations.

00:43:24
All right. We're not making any hypothesis

00:43:27
or theories or anything like that yet.

00:43:30
No, just week 1 observation. No, Yeah, it's observations.

00:43:33
Baltimore, Buffalo, one of the greatest NFL games in the season

00:43:36
history. Jeez.

00:43:37
I mean, you got Baltimore up 15 points with four minutes to go.

00:43:42
It's in the bag. People are going to bed.

00:43:44
People are leaving the stadium, and then you realize why Josh

00:43:47
Allen has an MVP trophy in his closet as well.

00:43:50
Yeah, Good Lord. He just made some plays.

00:43:53
Guy made some runs. Even the tip drill worked his

00:43:55
way. I mean, that was bull crap.

00:43:56
Went to Keon Cole. Yeah.

00:43:57
Still, when you're when you're Josh Allen and when you're these

00:44:00
elite players, those tips seem to go into your guys's hand.

00:44:04
Is this right? Is what it is, Lamar.

00:44:06
You can't play a better game. Can't play a better game,

00:44:10
Derrick. Henry can't play other than a

00:44:13
fumble, you can't play a better 2. 100 yards and he fumbles one

00:44:16
time. One time mattered.

00:44:18
Should he have mattered? They have.

00:44:20
Two aliens on that team, I mean, when you have Lamar Jackson is

00:44:26
not human the way he got away from some of those pass rushes.

00:44:29
Ridiculous. Was like it was truly magic.

00:44:33
And then Derrick Henry is like 78 years old and he is still

00:44:38
running just like the Boulder Man by people.

00:44:42
Still the man in the room like. Tennessee's just crying every

00:44:47
stinking week. They're like, we thought he was

00:44:49
done. We thought he was.

00:44:50
No, he's he's that guy. And let's just throw in Zay

00:44:54
Flowers 7 for 1:43 and a touchdown.

00:44:56
Like, this is like fantasy gold here, right?

00:45:00
Like this is fantasy gold. Andy Hopkins with the one that

00:45:03
came his way was like, Oh yeah, I'm still 1.

00:45:05
Handed catch in the end zone was baller D hops it.

00:45:10
I do the Hall of Fame bro, don't worry.

00:45:12
I was so. I he had one more catch late and

00:45:15
it was way less exciting than the first one.

00:45:16
That first one was an amazing play.

00:45:19
I have to say though, if you're a, If you're a, if you're a

00:45:23
Ravens fan, you have to start believing you're a little cursed

00:45:25
now. Like to have that kind of

00:45:28
performance and lose and lose the game is, is ridiculous.

00:45:33
And if you're, if you're a Bills fan, you're probably

00:45:36
irrationally happy because your defense is not good.

00:45:40
It is not a good defense. It's really bad.

00:45:42
But you have an incredible quarterback and that's, that's

00:45:46
good enough. I mean, you look at the rest of

00:45:47
their team, like James Cook, 44 yards rushing, that's not good.

00:45:55
Like receiving. Keyon Coleman had 112 and a

00:45:57
touchdown. I'm shocked.

00:45:59
I don't think that happens regularly.

00:46:01
I'm going to be honest. Tip.

00:46:01
Drill. It wasn't even to him and that

00:46:03
was for like what? True 5 Yeah.

00:46:05
And then, I mean, it was kind of garbage time.

00:46:08
That's what's funny. They were garbage time stats.

00:46:10
It turned into winning games. They're like, what the hell had

00:46:12
that happen, right? That's crazy.

00:46:14
I think there's some was if I was, if I wasn't a Chiefs fan, I

00:46:18
mean the 13 second game Chiefs and Bills from a few years ago

00:46:22
that will I think forever be my my most amazed as a fan.

00:46:27
This game was a close second though.

00:46:29
I mean it. Was really good.

00:46:31
Cool, come back. Well, and it just shows the

00:46:34
importance. I know we don't talk about

00:46:35
decks, but shows the importance of kickers, right?

00:46:38
You had missed extra points of this game.

00:46:41
There's a ton of kicks this week.

00:46:43
The Kickers had a horrible week. Week 1.

00:46:45
So young way too. We could have tied the game.

00:46:48
Put that to overtime. We had multiple missed extra

00:46:50
points. We had the Browns kicker missing

00:46:51
stuff. We had the meet everybody.

00:46:54
The Niners kicker is missing stuff.

00:46:56
Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh made the 60 yarder to

00:46:59
win it. Becker made the 59 yarder.

00:47:02
Yeah, this. Is the kickers had.

00:47:03
A weird week. And that's why kickers and

00:47:05
guillotine don't go together. Which is why I love not talking

00:47:07
about kickers. But yeah, real life they matter

00:47:09
for wins and losses. They're not in guillotine.

00:47:11
It's your favorite, but yeah, like between between from a

00:47:14
Chiefs segwaying a little bit into the Chiefs.

00:47:17
Well, go ahead. We haven't talked to them yet,

00:47:20
so go. Ahead.

00:47:20
Yeah, I'm gonna go one last game.

00:47:22
So the Minnesota Chicago game Monday night, it was kind of

00:47:27
ugly. I don't.

00:47:27
Want to talk about that game Dex?

00:47:30
Because it's awesome, and we may have seen just a young player

00:47:34
take a huge step and get some confidence after a very rough

00:47:37
first half. We were like, Oh my God, he's

00:47:40
terrible. That was the chats that we were

00:47:43
having in our Vikings chat group.

00:47:45
Like we may have really messed up.

00:47:47
Oh my God, why do we let everybody go?

00:47:49
Can I have Dartle back? Can I have anybody back?

00:47:53
And then JJJ McCarthy had a second-half like, well, that's

00:47:57
actually not bad. That was that.

00:47:58
Very 6. I was like pick six that looks

00:48:00
pretty brutal, yeah, targeting Jefferson.

00:48:04
But then after that, wow, he he was hitting lasers and just

00:48:09
looked good and the offense looked better.

00:48:11
And I don't know, I think that Justin Jefferson, while he had

00:48:15
kind of a poor overall line 4 for 44, when you look at the

00:48:18
second-half, he can be inspired. And I think hopefully they look

00:48:23
more like the second-half Vikings this year and get the

00:48:25
Dubs and they do the first half Vikings, which looked

00:48:28
horrendous, horrendous. So.

00:48:31
What's a touchdown? He still had JJ, still had 14

00:48:34
points or something, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

00:48:36
absolutely. But.

00:48:38
He still had a great beat. He did let me.

00:48:39
Be your little Black Rain cloud decks and talk a little bit

00:48:45
about the Vikes. So the incredible JJ McCarthy

00:48:49
threw for 143 yards, so you know, against the Bears.

00:48:55
All in the second-half and. And the Vikings were out, gained

00:49:01
by 60 yards against the Bears. Who had Caleb?

00:49:08
I have no freaking clue how to play quarterback in the NFL.

00:49:11
Williams, Caleb. By JJB.

00:49:13
Down Williams. He checked down Caleb.

00:49:17
Caleb threw for 210. OK, yeah, he threw for 210.

00:49:22
And he is a bad, bad quarterback.

00:49:25
Now, if you're looking at the fantasy side of this, Caleb

00:49:30
Williams is, is serviceable as a fantasy quarterback. 210 yards a

00:49:34
touchdown and he ran for a touchdown and 58 yards.

00:49:37
He's a serviceable fantasy quarterback.

00:49:39
I'm sorry, if you're a Bears fan, you have to watch this

00:49:41
crap. Everything else, he's a horrible

00:49:43
NFL quarterback. But from a fantasy standpoint,

00:49:46
he's the only one. I will touch on that team now

00:49:50
because like, I mean, DJ Moore is your one and he got 3

00:49:55
catches. Like, come on.

00:49:57
Yeah. And he paid the price on one.

00:49:59
I know. And he got actually Thunder

00:50:01
punched on one of them. I was like, I don't know if he's

00:50:02
getting up. Yeah, right.

00:50:05
Just. Destroyed running game.

00:50:07
DeAndre Swift 17 carries for 53 yards.

00:50:11
Oh my God. Yeah, it's not that is.

00:50:13
Not productive. So that team looks really bad if

00:50:16
you look at the Vikings. I will give you credit.

00:50:19
Awesome. Jordan Mason looks like the

00:50:23
starter he looks. Like when he had like he had

00:50:26
twice as many carries as Aaron Jones.

00:50:28
So take with that what you will. If you have an Aaron Jones on

00:50:31
your squad and you wish you would have gotten the Jordan

00:50:34
Mason handcuff and you missed him because someone else took

00:50:36
him like the next round. He looks like he he looked good.

00:50:39
He looked explosive. Wow, Jordan Mason does look

00:50:41
good. He was the most exciting thing

00:50:43
for me. I mean, outside of Justin

00:50:46
Jefferson, it's always exciting. But like, I do worry if I'm a

00:50:49
Jefferson owner right now, you'd need fourth quarter JJ McCarthy

00:50:57
to be 4 quarters JJ McCarthy. Come on, coming here on out.

00:51:01
Who do they have next? So I think we'll.

00:51:03
Learn a lot in that game. Yeah, no, absolutely.

00:51:06
So next week we get the Sunday night game and by Weed

00:51:10
Minnesota, Minnesota has a Sunday night game hosting the

00:51:13
Atlanta Falcons. So The Dirty Birds come back

00:51:15
into town and are going to. Try to be a good game. 1998

00:51:18
impersonation, which is not That'll be the.

00:51:22
That'll be a a pretty good game, I think, but still the I think

00:51:27
the first, the first real test that Mister McCarthy's going to

00:51:32
get on like, hey, let's see how how legit he is is probably.

00:51:38
I mean the Bengals are week 3, but the Bengals defense blows.

00:51:41
I'm sure it's going to be week 5 when I have Dijon on by.

00:51:46
No, that's the Browns, I guess, before the Steelers and then

00:51:50
Week 7 the Eagles. The Steelers will give him a

00:51:52
good test and then Week 7 he'll get real tests, I think, and

00:51:56
then the schedule gets tough after that.

00:51:59
OK, so that is our Week 1 summary.

00:52:01
Anything else you guys want to touch on just the games before

00:52:03
we go into? Did we even talk about the

00:52:06
Chiefs? Did we?

00:52:07
We talked about Friday night. Yeah, we go.

00:52:09
We'll go totally into Friday night.

00:52:10
Let's do Friday night. We talked.

00:52:11
I don't think we talked at all about the Chiefs.

00:52:13
I think we skipped. Right over it.

00:52:16
No, let's talk. I mean, I no.

00:52:18
It's Brazil, right? So you talk about them all right

00:52:21
last. Chargers, Chiefs.

00:52:23
We knew it'd be a tough game because Chargers Chiefs games

00:52:25
always are. Justin Herbert is always seems

00:52:28
to play really, really well against the Chiefs.

00:52:30
And he did. And he did.

00:52:32
God, he had like a back in the day Justin Herbert game and Jim

00:52:36
Harbaugh. I'm going to pass every play.

00:52:39
This you only thought I ran the ball?

00:52:41
That was what I wanted you to think.

00:52:43
And then they did. And the Chargers we talked about

00:52:46
at Quinton Johnson, God, he played great.

00:52:49
And Justin Herbert, he played great.

00:52:51
And Keenan Allen looked like vintage, like a fine wine.

00:52:55
I don't know if he can do that every single week.

00:52:56
Vlad Mcconkey looks great. I mean, all of them look great.

00:52:59
It's they all looked wide open too.

00:53:02
So yeah. All the time, which the Chiefs

00:53:04
defense, they got better. I mean, on paper they're really

00:53:08
good last year and they got better.

00:53:09
But somehow this happened. I don't know, guys.

00:53:12
What do you think? I mean ASC perspective, Aaron

00:53:15
Hampton for the Chargers looked fine.

00:53:17
All the White House for Chargers look fine.

00:53:19
For the Chiefs, we didn't get to see worthy sort of and we don't

00:53:23
know what happened with how long he's to be out.

00:53:25
He's got a shoulder thing now. Sounds like it's week to week.

00:53:29
He might play with a brace. What does that mean?

00:53:32
I don't know. And past that, Hollywood Brown

00:53:34
took over that role. So Hollywood Brown is now.

00:53:37
He's probably on a team though. I mean for, especially for

00:53:39
fantasy, for guillotine formats. Not get him now because he's the

00:53:44
one. That's exactly right. 10 catches

00:53:46
for 99 yards. He took all of what Xavier

00:53:48
Worthy's game plan is going to be.

00:53:49
They slid him right into it. Juju then slid into the other

00:53:52
one. Oh yeah.

00:53:54
I think Juju might be the one you'd be able to pick up.

00:53:57
Yeah, Yeah, right. He's he's gonna be less

00:53:59
available now. He's the two.

00:54:00
Yep. You could probably get him

00:54:02
Kelsey only two. Catches he had the one big one

00:54:05
for a tutty. I don't know.

00:54:06
He only had four targets, which is compared to 16 for Hollywood

00:54:11
Brown, which what about Xavier worthy got just so hard to say.

00:54:15
It's like, oh man. He.

00:54:18
Would not have gotten 16. I mean, I mean, from a fantasy,

00:54:22
from a fantasy perspective, I hate to say this, but from a

00:54:26
fantasy perspective, the only guy right now that's that's

00:54:30
reliable is Patrick Holmes for the Chiefs.

00:54:34
And he looked not Patrick like in the first half, but in the

00:54:37
second-half I was reminded of how incredible he is.

00:54:41
And he does have more time this year.

00:54:44
And even though they lost this game, it wasn't on Patty 258 a

00:54:49
tutty. He ran for 57 in a tutty.

00:54:52
Like, that's a fantasy. That's a great fantasy game.

00:54:55
And yeah, he he and that's with with no #1 or #2 wide receiver,

00:55:02
right? So he's he's a keeper.

00:55:04
I agree. The Chargers look really good.

00:55:07
Yeah, I don't know if the Chargers are that good or the

00:55:10
Chiefs defense is that bad to start out.

00:55:13
I don't know, Brazil, it's just it's wonky, it's not real.

00:55:16
But the Chargers definitely had a better game plan and showed up

00:55:19
to play, which is normally not somebody.

00:55:21
The Chiefs, they always seem to show up too.

00:55:24
And it wasn't a bad game and it came down to where they just,

00:55:28
they need one more play, right? I mean. 2720.

00:55:32
One, that's they certainly. I'm 100% confident if they make

00:55:36
that stop that Mahomes drives down and gets touchdown.

00:55:38
That's right, like Justin. Herbert, what do you know what

00:55:41
happens? 18 yards on the 3rd and 15 or

00:55:45
something stupid. Third and 12.

00:55:46
I don't know what it was, but yeah.

00:55:49
And and to get into the weeds a little bit, this is where our

00:55:52
our boy, our boy, Chris Jones, who is a phenomenal big game

00:55:57
player. But man, every now and again he

00:55:59
has a game like this. I look at the stat line.

00:56:01
No tackles, 2 assists. Yeah.

00:56:04
Two assists and he totally blew his assignment on the very last

00:56:08
play of the game where he was supposed to contain Herbert and

00:56:11
he decided to go for the sack and lost the game for him.

00:56:13
So every now and again, Jones does a bonehead.

00:56:17
And this was definitely a bonehead Jones game.

00:56:19
Yeah, at least it's an effort play, but man, that's the one.

00:56:23
You need a Steam play. He wants you to contain the

00:56:25
rush. But whatever.

00:56:27
I think if I'm most concerned for the Chiefs, the Isaiah

00:56:30
Pacheco 5 for 25 is not what we thought the Chiefs would be

00:56:34
doing. It's not like they got down a

00:56:35
ton. They just weren't very effective

00:56:37
running it. But we didn't run hardly at all.

00:56:39
Yeah, we ran 11 total times. And when was the jet sweep with

00:56:43
Worthy on the first play of the game or second play of the game?

00:56:46
That was it. So Chiefs just didn't run since

00:56:47
I'd be concerned if I'm a Checo owner, yeah, I'd be looking on

00:56:51
that waiver wire for whoever got chopped and see who their

00:56:53
running backs were cuz I don't know, maybe.

00:56:56
But Check is gonna have a great bounce back this week and he he

00:56:59
could and should right? We're not gonna overreact that

00:57:01
much, but. Well, this is the fantasy trap

00:57:04
with the with the Chiefs, though the fantasy trap with Big Red

00:57:09
teams is sometimes he falls in love with the pass.

00:57:12
Yeah, and he doesn't run the ball enough.

00:57:14
And I think this is one of those where he just gave up on the

00:57:18
run. Soon.

00:57:20
Well, so this is what happened to him a couple years ago,

00:57:23
right? All their wide receivers go down

00:57:24
early and they had to become something different.

00:57:27
Yeah, that was that was more offensive line created.

00:57:30
Yeah, I think but but still they may see a shift to more runs if

00:57:35
they have worthy and that's right.

00:57:38
Well, you do. Is not a spring chicken anymore.

00:57:40
I mean, the good news is, you know, at least Week 2 you got

00:57:44
the Eagles, you know, So I mean. Yeah, schedule that cupcake on

00:57:48
the schedule first. They get the cupcakes early.

00:57:51
All right, so let's move on past that.

00:57:54
So I want to go. So for our guillotine players

00:57:56
out there, which is probably a lot of you the bid strategy.

00:57:59
So now we're at Week 1, there's a top team out there and they

00:58:02
just dumped all their players. We have a first round player,

00:58:05
second round player, 3rd, 4th, 5th.

00:58:07
So we have some good players that are out there.

00:58:09
The question that keeps coming into us, how much do I spend on

00:58:12
these guys? What's the going rate?

00:58:14
I have $1000. There's a couple really good

00:58:17
players, should I get them? Well, the answer I keep going is

00:58:20
it depends. I give the lawyer answer because

00:58:22
it does like who's the player? Is it an in gamer?

00:58:25
If it is it someone that you would not bench in week 14

00:58:28
through 17 and then you can get them now.

00:58:30
I mean they they're worth more, right?

00:58:32
There's also team need. Did you have a Kittle and now

00:58:35
there's a Bowers available? Probably not, but is it

00:58:37
something like that? Is it a need for you

00:58:39
immediately? Do you have an injury risk?

00:58:41
You have Pacheco and now there's a really good running back out

00:58:43
there. Now there's Ashton Gente.

00:58:45
So a lot of it just depends. But gents, what is your strategy

00:58:49
when you go into these? You have a good team, but now

00:58:51
there's just all these shiny new toys out there, someone else's

00:58:55
free agents all of a sudden. What is your strategy on Week 1?

00:58:59
Early weeks will not go to this Week 1, but in general,

00:59:01
September. Like what is your strategies on

00:59:03
bids? We'll start with proof.

00:59:05
Well, since I'm bidding against actively bidding against

00:59:08
Chisholm, I don't want to share too much, but I'll say early in

00:59:15
the season, my strategy is to avoid the shiny new toys.

00:59:20
I'm I'm perfectly happy upgrading my bench guys to a

00:59:24
instead of a, you know, running back three for somebody.

00:59:27
Isaiah Davis, you'll take somebody else.

00:59:30
Yeah, I'll get a wide receiver 2 or a whatever.

00:59:34
Just small incremental upgrades for cheap.

00:59:37
I'll spend and I'm gonna bid something nominal, 3 bucks, 7

00:59:43
bucks, 12 bucks, something like that.

00:59:45
I'm not going to go spend $100 to get Ashton Gente that we've

00:59:48
seen in one game. What?

00:59:50
About if it's more like Jamar Chase is available in a ton of

00:59:53
leagues. What would you spend for Jamar

00:59:54
Chase? That is the number one pick in

00:59:57
every single fantasy draft in the country this year?

01:00:00
If he's available week 1, how much do you spend?

01:00:03
I'm going to give you the lawyer answer.

01:00:05
It depends. Do I have?

01:00:08
What's the most to expand if you lost your white out if you are

01:00:11
now on? Struggle, yeah, If I'm a, if I'm

01:00:14
a. Position.

01:00:15
Yeah, if I'm a a worthy owner or an A.J.

01:00:18
Brown owner, yes, or something like that.

01:00:20
Yep. Week 1, the most I would spend I

01:00:25
would say 200, knowing that I'll probably get outbid that is by

01:00:29
somebody who. You'd get outbid.

01:00:30
So here's so Bruce just not going to answer the question.

01:00:32
You'd have to spend probably 400 to 600 bucks to get Jamar Chase

01:00:36
and. I'm going to spend 200 because

01:00:37
I, I don't think, I mean he could get hurt next week.

01:00:40
It could, right? And that's the risk about buying

01:00:42
the guys early, right? I mean, everybody got hurt this

01:00:44
week. We had a lot of injuries,

01:00:45
totally. So it's just one of those deals.

01:00:47
Chisholm, how about you? Yeah, this is the, this is the

01:00:50
biggest mindset shift you have to make in going from

01:00:52
traditional fantasy to guillotine fantasy.

01:00:55
So the differences in traditional fantasy, you're

01:01:00
always wanting to make the team better.

01:01:02
Like you're like, whoever's out there, I'm going to get them if

01:01:05
they're better than what I have. So there's no downside to it.

01:01:09
The way you have to think about guillotine is do I need this

01:01:13
player to survive? That is the that is the mindset

01:01:16
you have to have is it's like, yeah, OK, if I have if, if

01:01:21
Ashton, if Ashton Genti's available and I have Josh Jacobs

01:01:28
and I have, you know, Isaiah Pacheco, let's say like it, is

01:01:34
it worth me spending $200 to get Ashton Genti instead of Isaiah

01:01:38
Pacheco? Probably not.

01:01:39
Like is he going to get me that much more?

01:01:41
Probably not. I don't.

01:01:43
Do I need him to survive? Probably not.

01:01:45
Not a guarantee, right? Yeah, right.

01:01:47
So going going to that kind of mindset because it is exciting

01:01:52
when you're like, wow, like this guy's available in our league

01:01:56
and I wanted to draft him and you're super excited because

01:01:59
you're like, oh, now I can get another, another swing at him.

01:02:02
But like you have to have a 17 week mindset and it's really

01:02:09
hard because what sucks is when you go out, you look at all your

01:02:13
fab money and you're like, I didn't spend any of that fab

01:02:15
money and I could have. If you go out of Week 2, you're

01:02:18
like, I'm an idiot because I should have gotten and spent a

01:02:20
bunch of money, but you're not playing for Week 2.

01:02:23
Yeah. You know.

01:02:25
The hardest part? So if you don't need them to get

01:02:30
through the week, that's kind of the mindset that I have.

01:02:33
It's scary sometimes and you got to walk the line and sometimes

01:02:36
you're going to be really nervous.

01:02:38
But at the end of the day, like, do you want to win the whole

01:02:40
thing? And if you want to win the whole

01:02:42
thing, you've got to give yourself some ammunition in

01:02:44
weeks 14 through 17, or is all the guys you're going to be in

01:02:48
trouble. They get cheaper as you go in

01:02:50
the bye weeks or when things get really spicy.

01:02:53
So yeah, weeks 5 through 9 bye weeks when it's still early and

01:02:57
you lose your best players. Bijon Robinson is no longer in

01:03:00
your lineup and you're now starting Pacheco and TBD to be

01:03:05
determined. That is a scary prospect.

01:03:07
And when you're looking at those shiny toys like, well, hell

01:03:10
yeah, Kyron Williams, come on, my team, I got you.

01:03:12
But someone else is in the same boat because there's more than

01:03:15
one person on by, right? They also want to have whoever

01:03:19
is left out there. So I think, again, the quality

01:03:22
of the player is going to impact.

01:03:24
That's obvious. It's super obvious.

01:03:26
Yeah. But the early season fear

01:03:28
factor, especially if you're in the bottom 5:00 and you're like

01:03:31
whoo. You squished.

01:03:32
By. Sunday night, Monday Night

01:03:34
Football. That's the threat I wanted to

01:03:35
tug on is you said, you know, do you need them to survive?

01:03:40
Where is the where's your comfort zone?

01:03:42
I'm probably safe versus I'm probably needing to pick up a

01:03:46
player. Yeah, I need everything to work

01:03:47
out well, so right. I mean, there's there's leagues

01:03:50
where Joe Burrow is going to be out there.

01:03:52
If your quarterback was, I don't know, JJ McCarthy and you're

01:03:55
just freaking cinched up balls the whole weekend and watch

01:03:59
like, Oh my God, I needed twelve points.

01:04:01
I didn't get that till the fourth quarter.

01:04:03
And while Joe Burrow had one bad week, man, do you think he's

01:04:06
going to have too many eight point weeks?

01:04:08
Probably not Probably not With that receiving core and that

01:04:12
line and that running back who catches a ton of balls.

01:04:14
You should feel pretty good about Joe Burrow.

01:04:16
I'd upgrade him if you're a quarterback bottom 15 guy to get

01:04:20
a top four guy. I mean, that's an in game

01:04:23
player. You would play him in weeks 14

01:04:24
through 17 and not bench him like Lamar and Josh Allen.

01:04:28
Sure, OK, that's probably the short list and it hurts.

01:04:31
So he's the 4th best 1. So I don't know, it's this just

01:04:36
depends on who the guys are, what's available in the leagues,

01:04:39
and there's gonna be a lot of good players all the time.

01:04:41
And here's the great thing about Guillotine.

01:04:43
You don't have to get him the first time.

01:04:45
Last year, one of our leagues I'm on our St.

01:04:47
Brown was available four different times.

01:04:50
He just kept popping up for whatever reason and it wasn't

01:04:53
necessarily always bad weeks from him, but some dudes are

01:04:55
just we're unlucky. Travis Kelsey was.

01:04:58
Available multiple times last season yeah so if you don't get

01:05:02
him the first time, chances are because only one team makes it

01:05:06
man so by the time. I'm going.

01:05:08
To go 12, you've lost 12 teams, so I'm going.

01:05:10
To go back to my earlier statement, if you're putting out

01:05:13
bids based on conservative, you know, conservative bids up front

01:05:19
and you're consistent throughout, you're going to land

01:05:22
somebody at some point. Yeah, right.

01:05:24
Nobody's going to want, nobody's can afford to spend 202 hundred,

01:05:27
200, whatever. Yeah, you only get on the top

01:05:30
guys. For the most part.

01:05:32
Right. So you start if you're if you're

01:05:34
still surviving, you're in the top half, you know, predicted to

01:05:37
be in the top half of scoring each week and you don't need

01:05:39
somebody. Just stick with your plan of

01:05:42
conservative bids and you'll get a few surprise ones and

01:05:46
eventually other people start spending all their fab.

01:05:51
You're you're left with the top. You know, you've got the most

01:05:54
chips in your pile, so to speak. You can go nuts on an in gamer

01:05:57
later on you. Can chip whip you can chip whip

01:05:59
people. Then the The thing is that said,

01:06:04
if you're sitting there with Spencer Rattler and this isn't

01:06:07
going to happen, you're saying there with Spencer Rattler and

01:06:09
Lamar Jackson is available. Yep.

01:06:12
I don't blame you for spending 400 to get in because you got

01:06:16
your in game quarterback and that guy is going to be the guy

01:06:20
that can take you all the way and you don't ever have to think

01:06:22
about quarterback the rest of your season.

01:06:23
Let's get hurt. So like if that that kind of

01:06:26
scenario pops up or you know, Brock Bowers pops up like, hey,

01:06:30
he's the far and away #1 you know, tight end, like those are

01:06:34
guys that you could go ahead and blow it on.

01:06:36
It's still scary to blow it this early because it's Pruitt's

01:06:39
point. If this is NFL, and if you don't

01:06:41
think there's going to be guys getting hurt and knows #1 you

01:06:44
guys getting hurt, you're crazy. It's going to happen.

01:06:47
So you got to leave yourself some legal room.

01:06:49
That's right. So I think that's kind of our

01:06:51
look at the bid strategies. You can spend a lot and you can

01:06:54
get these players, but chances are you're going to really wish

01:06:57
you had that money later. So the conservative bids on some

01:07:00
of these second tier dudes and put a put a good bid in for some

01:07:04
of these guys. I mean, if you get 20 for 150

01:07:06
bucks, that's pretty good. Yeah, I.

01:07:08
Don't think. You get it because someone else

01:07:09
is going to spend more because they'll just do 300 to make sure

01:07:12
they get them, right? And the next highest bids, 225,

01:07:15
so be it. Who cares, right?

01:07:18
Right. You can't take it if you're

01:07:19
dead. And so that's how a lot of

01:07:20
people will do it. And those strategies can win the

01:07:22
league. So we had a guy a couple years

01:07:24
ago, he just bought everybody in the first four weeks.

01:07:26
He was down to like $95, but he didn't have to buy anyone else

01:07:29
the rest of the year. And he got lucky on injuries and

01:07:32
didn't lose anybody and was able to manage his bye weeks and

01:07:36
squeak through and then. You just set up five.

01:07:38
Dollars you got someone else in week 1213 and help take them all

01:07:41
away the title so it's. Not managing those.

01:07:43
So yeah, managing those bye weeks is the other key thing is

01:07:46
that you blow your water early and then you get to week 5 and

01:07:49
you haven't planned out what you're gonna do for the next 5

01:07:53
weeks. We will usually get you chopped.

01:07:55
Into real trouble. Normally get you chopped is a

01:07:57
bye week plus an injury. Double down.

01:07:59
Yeah. And then one batch performance

01:08:01
from somebody else that you're counting on.

01:08:03
Yeah. Is what it is.

01:08:04
And there's nothing you can really do about that.

01:08:07
There's always going to be a little bit of luck in fantasy

01:08:09
football that we're. Is there really?

01:08:10
There's luck, yeah. There's luck.

01:08:12
Good luck and bad luck. Oh yeah.

01:08:13
The last thing I will say about it is enjoy this part of it,

01:08:17
because to me this is what makes guillotine so fun is the

01:08:22
strategy of the of the. Absolutely fab so.

01:08:25
You know, in our traditional fans league, you're like, well,

01:08:28
I, I'm really low on the waiver priority.

01:08:30
I'm not going to get anybody this week.

01:08:32
That's kind of sucky. It's not really fun.

01:08:34
So this way, you know, there is a lot of strategy every week.

01:08:37
This is the real strategic part of the game.

01:08:39
Enjoy it, pick a strategy, go with it, say this is what I'm

01:08:42
going to do this year. If it doesn't work, switch it

01:08:45
next year, you know. Yep.

01:08:47
That's the beauty of it. Yep.

01:08:48
All right. So that's is our bid on bid

01:08:51
strategies. So for Week 1, we'll kind of go

01:08:53
through those a little bit each week and kind of what we would

01:08:56
do on if a certain player were to hit, but that's kind of what

01:08:59
we got. So let's go into our shrewdness.

01:09:01
Sleeper, sleeper, sleeper. So last week we gave you 3, Yes.

01:09:09
And just a long drummer haul has ready to come in a little early

01:09:12
on that one. So last week we gave you 3 and

01:09:15
one hit. One hit, baby.

01:09:16
So 33%, we'll take it. Gave you Cedric Tillman and that

01:09:21
Cincy D produced for you. Cedric Tillman for Cleveland had

01:09:26
his 16.2 points. That's a hit.

01:09:28
So I went off a little deeper cut because there wasn't a lot

01:09:32
available. And I wanted to make sure.

01:09:35
Yeah, because even though 25% owned, that's a lot of people

01:09:38
had all these guys. So I went deep.

01:09:40
I went Devon Vaile. He only had one catch, so he had

01:09:43
a a little 13 yarder, 2.3 points.

01:09:47
Didn't get that one and I was kind of hoping at the end when

01:09:50
they're shoving balls in the end zone he'd be one of those.

01:09:53
Just didn't work out and then at least got a player on the field

01:09:57
unlike Chisholm who dug up Amari Cooper shoveling all.

01:10:02
You got a player who was in the NFL, so that's already a this.

01:10:07
Is gold, baby. We're talking about all the prep

01:10:10
work that goes into this, and we're digging deep for sleepers.

01:10:13
He gave you one that went to sleep, so Amari Cooper went back

01:10:16
to bed. Gave you one that was stall on

01:10:18
the couch. Yeah, he went back to the couch.

01:10:20
He was so like, Chisholm, this is dumb.

01:10:22
And so my immediate making fun of that pig and calling it

01:10:27
ridiculous and how much tequila was he drinking in Mexico all

01:10:30
panned out. All panned out.

01:10:32
So Amari Cooper did not play, so did not meet his projections of

01:10:35
3.4 points, got a 0. So that being said, one for

01:10:39
three, we're going to try and hook you up.

01:10:41
So again, for our shooting sleepers, if you missed last

01:10:43
week's episode, these are Max owned of 25%.

01:10:47
So we're trying in three out of four leagues.

01:10:49
They're going to be there for you.

01:10:50
So again, if you lost one of these guys, if you had a Jawan

01:10:53
Jennings sit in your flex, if you got Xavier worthy, you don't

01:10:56
know what's up, We're going to try and give you some people to

01:10:58
go get it. So start Chisholm, I want to

01:11:00
give you a chance to redeem yourself this week that who's

01:11:03
going to get a 7 points in that flex spot for you.

01:11:07
Yeah, let's start with who's gonna play, Yeah.

01:11:10
Let's start with someone on a team.

01:11:12
I am confident I am going to do better this week than the last

01:11:17
week. I could say that.

01:11:20
So I was gonna go with Andre Risen, but I heard he's.

01:11:25
Retired as well. So it's instead I've decided to

01:11:29
go with Juan Dale Robinson, a guy who really did impress me in

01:11:34
week one. I was surprised how much of the

01:11:38
targets he got. We, we had talked a lot about

01:11:42
how much the, the targets were all going one way to the league

01:11:47
neighbors and, and Wandale got a lot of attention.

01:11:52
He got thrown the ball a lot in Week 1.

01:11:54
And I think going into this week he's going to get the ball just

01:11:58
as much enough to get 7 for sure.

01:12:01
So I'm very confident he's going to get 3 catches for 50 yards,

01:12:05
put you over that seven at least.

01:12:06
He may even sneak a touchdown in there.

01:12:09
So Wandale Robinson. He's my shrewdest.

01:12:12
Sleeper this week. Nice, I like it.

01:12:13
Pruitt who we getting? So that would be our 4th

01:12:18
shooting a sleeper who's a wide receiver.

01:12:20
I'm going to go, I'm going to pivot a little bit.

01:12:24
I'm going to go to the tight end room.

01:12:27
If you're like me and and you had George Kittle on your

01:12:29
roster, you need a new tight end this week.

01:12:32
So I like Brenton Strange. He's predicted to have about 7

01:12:37
points and I think he's got a good matchup this week.

01:12:41
So I'm going to go with tight end Brenton Strange.

01:12:44
It's a. Strange thing it's.

01:12:45
My it is strange. It's so pretty.

01:12:49
Strange. I like it.

01:12:52
All right, so I'm going back to the Giants.

01:12:54
Like I didn't even realize it until this.

01:12:56
Now we both have guys on the Giants.

01:12:58
See what happens with Russ. Russ to love Muss as he travels

01:13:01
to Dallas. And here is where I'm going with

01:13:05
tight end Theo Johnson. Like Jesus, Dex, this guy was

01:13:09
terrible last week. No wonder your heads rolling

01:13:12
around. 1 catch for five yards. Now I think he's gonna get 7

01:13:15
points. Well, yes, I do.

01:13:17
And why do I? Because Dallas got her, had a

01:13:20
phenomenal game, and Dallas didn't look like they knew what

01:13:23
to do against a tight end whatsoever.

01:13:26
Theo Johnson, I'm not going to do a week 1 overreaction at 3

01:13:29
targets only brought into one catch for five.

01:13:32
Also, Wilson also I think can play better.

01:13:34
What he did, he wasn't that good. 17 for 37 is God awful.

01:13:38
So I think he's going to bounce back, have a better game, go

01:13:41
against probably a little softer defense in Dallas and again,

01:13:45
show me they can stop a tight end.

01:13:46
I think Theo can get you 4 for 30.

01:13:49
There's seven points right there, baby.

01:13:51
So I think Theo can get you at 6% owned.

01:13:54
He should be out there for you as well.

01:13:55
So that's what we got. So we got Wandale Robinson, Theo

01:13:58
Johnson and Britton Strange for our shrewdness sleeper, sleeper,

01:14:01
sleeper. So let's go to our shrewdness

01:14:06
spuds, the potatoes. Who is going to potato out?

01:14:09
Last week we gave you two out of three winners.

01:14:12
Yeah, that's good. And so.

01:14:16
We gave you Calvin Ridley. We said he is not going to come

01:14:18
anywhere near 15 points. In fact he's getting less than

01:14:21
8. So our criteria on this one is

01:14:23
minimum 95% owned. So they are probably starting

01:14:27
for you and we are going to tell you you shouldn't, though.

01:14:31
You really shouldn't. It's not the week for him.

01:14:32
So last week we had Calvin Ridley projected for 15 1/2.

01:14:36
He got 6.7, nailed it. We had Tony Pollard projected

01:14:40
for 13.17 point 9 Nailed it. He.

01:14:45
Picked a guy who was dead and then he said, you know what,

01:14:49
James Cook, he's going to suck this week.

01:14:53
Raven's defense is going to shut him down.

01:14:56
Did they? To the tune of 21.2 points.

01:14:59
He nearly doubled his projection.

01:15:01
So with that hot start, we were two out of three though on our

01:15:04
spuds. So who's the potato this week?

01:15:06
Pruitt, We'll start with you this time.

01:15:08
He was going to be the potato of Week 2.

01:15:10
Well, we, we mentioned it before in the previous episode, maybe

01:15:15
not last week, but in previous episodes we talked about the,

01:15:19
the love hate relationship between Jalen Hurts and A.J.

01:15:22
Brown. Philly, you know, comes to

01:15:25
Kansas City this week and AJ Brown's going to be matched up

01:15:28
most likely with Trent Mcduffie most of the game.

01:15:32
Given his lack of attention from Jalen Hurts.

01:15:36
I'm thinking A.J. Brown may struggle again to get

01:15:38
to 8 points. There's there is a chance he

01:15:41
could make him a touchdown or something that would probably

01:15:43
blow that up. But I don't see him getting more

01:15:46
than a, a couple catches, maybe 3 for, you know, 40 yards or

01:15:51
something like that. There we go.

01:15:53
I think he'll, I think he'll slide in around eight points

01:15:56
instead of the 13.3 that he's predicted to have.

01:15:59
Yeah, the tinfoil hat conspiracy theorists out there too think

01:16:03
that AJ was just a decoy last week and still had a bad hammy

01:16:06
and that's why I didn't get too many balls.

01:16:08
Interesting. Not sure you can wear your own

01:16:10
tinfoil hat and dive down the rabbit hole of Reddit.

01:16:13
Don't know but he did suck last week so we'll see.

01:16:16
It's not a bad one for a week to potato because he's already on

01:16:20
the potato train. So Chisholm, who is your spud?

01:16:24
Your shrewdness spud for me. Yes.

01:16:26
Well, again, I'm confident I'll do better this week than I did

01:16:29
last week. So I am going to go with what

01:16:33
looked like one of the more hideous offenses I've seen in a

01:16:36
long time in Miami. So Miami is is playing New

01:16:40
England. New England, I know, gave up a

01:16:43
decent amount of passing yards to the Raiders.

01:16:44
So it isn't necessarily about the matchup, it's more about the

01:16:48
fact that they look like they cannot function at all as an

01:16:52
offense. And so I'm going with Tyree.

01:16:54
Kill a guy who is really hoping and wishing that he had been

01:16:59
traded. Given what we saw in Week 1.

01:17:03
Not a lot of targets, definitely not going to be a lot of deep

01:17:06
balls. Remember old Tyreek running

01:17:08
down, streaking down that sideline?

01:17:10
It's not gonna happen with two of throwing the ball and I don't

01:17:13
see Tyreke getting fed nearly enough to do well.

01:17:16
I think you're gonna see a lot more of the 8 chain show, a lot

01:17:19
of eight chain out of the backfield catching, a lot of

01:17:22
eight chain running. Tyreke maybe one or two catches

01:17:25
but not a lot, so he is my pick for less than eight points.

01:17:29
Over 95% owned Mr. Hill. I like it.

01:17:33
And here's the other thing on him.

01:17:34
He might not be playing either. He might have picked another

01:17:36
dude not playing. So hours ago, Tyreek Hill,

01:17:39
accused of multiple instances of domestic violence in court

01:17:43
filings by estranged wife. Woof.

01:17:45
That's not good for the old status of the head.

01:17:48
Getting ready for game day. He's probably playing this week.

01:17:51
But yeah, how could you play if you got a whole bunch of court

01:17:54
filings? I know maybe he is used to it

01:17:57
didn't last year like he got stopped by the police on the way

01:18:01
to the first game of the season baby, it actually had a pretty

01:18:04
good game. Maybe he got his mind on court

01:18:06
and he did way better. It's like I love getting drunk.

01:18:08
His fun, so who knows? So Tyra kill Hannibal, well, I

01:18:13
don't think he's going to be suspended or anything yet, but

01:18:16
we'll see what's up. All right, so I was going to

01:18:18
take Jalen Waddle and I was like no, I'm going with someone else.

01:18:21
We can't go to the same team again.

01:18:22
So I think he may be a potato too.

01:18:25
But my potato of the week, my spud is Kenneth Walker, the 3rd

01:18:29
on the road at Pittsburgh. He didn't look that good there

01:18:32
last week and Pittsburgh is going to be embarrassed.

01:18:35
They gave up that many points and everything to The Jets.

01:18:38
I think they lock it down week. I think TJ Watts going to be a

01:18:41
force. I think they're just going to be

01:18:44
what they do. Pittsburgh at home is hard to

01:18:46
beat. They're tough to play and

01:18:48
Kenneth Walker is going into a bad spot to want to go have a

01:18:52
good game. I just, I think he's not going

01:18:54
to do much. So he's projected for nearly 12

01:18:57
points. But does the amount they're

01:18:59
using Charbonnay for Seattle really gives me pause and going

01:19:03
into a tough run D on the road across the country.

01:19:06
These West Coast teams generally don't travel well to the East

01:19:09
Coast anyway. Kenneth Walker, spud of the

01:19:11
week. So our spuds are A.J.

01:19:13
Brown, Tyree Kill and Kenneth Walker.

01:19:17
You got them in your lineup. I hear you.

01:19:19
You probably have to start them, but don't expect great things.

01:19:22
This will start becoming these sleepers and spuds will become a

01:19:26
lot more useful in bias situations and a little bit

01:19:30
later on, like we're pretty pretty much like you just said

01:19:33
that. So you got to start these guys.

01:19:35
Yeah, it's unfortunate, but. Yeah, it's what it is.

01:19:39
At some point you'll have, you know, a better team.

01:19:41
You'll improve your team if you stick around 5 or 6 more weeks

01:19:45
and you'll get to the point where it's like, am I starting

01:19:48
A.J. Brown or am I starting?

01:19:50
Yeah, film. Like.

01:19:51
Tyree kill. Yeah, Tyree kill.

01:19:54
Potatoes sometimes you're like cooking with the mashed potatoes

01:19:58
and that's what you got all right, so this is one of our fun

01:20:01
segments. We love doing this, the gambling

01:20:02
picks and if you've been following our socials, we put

01:20:05
out for all the island games, our shrewdness power parleys

01:20:08
boy, we came close quite a few times.

01:20:10
We got two out of three on three different ones.

01:20:13
The Chiefs Chargers game was just we were.

01:20:15
Post right off the bat when Worley went out, that was one.

01:20:17
And then Quentin Johnson took one of that.

01:20:20
I was like, well, that's just fun.

01:20:21
This is awesome. Yeah, that was 2.

01:20:23
Yeah. So we were kind of done in the

01:20:24
first quarter on that one. But for the rest of them, if

01:20:27
you're, especially if you're a betting individual, we were

01:20:29
hitting about 65% of the bets each week on the Island games.

01:20:32
So hopefully you had fun doing those.

01:20:34
If you didn't check them out, check them out.

01:20:35
So make sure you're following us on all the socials to get those

01:20:37
shrewdness, power, parley, parley, parley.

01:20:40
But as part of our game league picks, so the ones we put out on

01:20:42
the show each week, we do our 1:00, lock it down, put your

01:20:46
mortgage on this thing and it's time to go buy a yacht.

01:20:49
So last week we almost had you on a perfect week again, Two out

01:20:53
of three once again, two out of three once again.

01:20:55
So Pruitt gave you Cleveland plus 5 1/2, but for Cleveland,

01:21:00
they should have won. I think you put the money line

01:21:02
on that one too. That would probably a nice 2

01:21:04
bucks on the money line just because and almost had it.

01:21:08
Yeah, then I had Denver, Tennessee under.

01:21:10
It looked exactly what I thought that game would be, a bunch of

01:21:13
nothing burgers. So 40 under 42 1/2 that one hit

01:21:16
and then Chisholm, it was not that bad.

01:21:18
So the New York giant stinky, smelly armpit of a pic that

01:21:22
these are the ones that usually hit plus 6 1/2 and then just

01:21:25
Russell rustled and they just man dropped it.

01:21:28
They just didn't get anything going at the.

01:21:30
Worst that I could even imagine at the you know, like God.

01:21:34
And we should have got less. We we should have known Dex and

01:21:40
I talked about this before the show last week and we were both

01:21:42
like, oh man, we like this. We learned our lesson.

01:21:45
We should have learned it already.

01:21:46
But when all of us like something, it's not good.

01:21:49
We had way too much support for this big.

01:21:52
Therefore I should have run very far away from it.

01:21:55
But two out of three, Hey, you made money, right?

01:21:57
So this week we're going to we're going to hit them all.

01:22:01
That's right. Who are you starting with Jizz?

01:22:02
Get us back on the right track. I'm, I, I, I cannot tell you how

01:22:06
disappointed I am in Miami's offense and defense for that

01:22:09
matter. So that's pretty.

01:22:11
Atrocious all around. And I like what I saw in New

01:22:15
England. I think Drake May is a

01:22:18
legitimate NFL quarterback. I like what Butay did.

01:22:23
I really like the spurt from Trayvion Henderson.

01:22:29
Everyone's a good, good change. And I, I think that at a getting

01:22:35
New England as an underdog is great.

01:22:37
So I took New England plus 1 1/2.

01:22:40
I don't think the Dolphins problems can be fixed in a week.

01:22:43
And I like New England's coach and I like what they got going.

01:22:47
So we're going to go New England plus 1 1/2.

01:22:49
Luck it out. There we go.

01:22:50
How? About you, Mr. Pruitt.

01:22:53
So I, I was really impressed with Green Bay in, in Week 1.

01:22:59
I think the addition of Parsons might be the the key to

01:23:02
unlocking their playoff potential and and taking it all

01:23:07
the way to the Super Bowl. I'm on board with your, your

01:23:11
prediction. Cheers from last week I read

01:23:15
something that Matt Lafleur is 8 and O and home openers against

01:23:20
the spread or something like that.

01:23:22
I like the matchup. Coach, he's a he's a quiet, good

01:23:25
coach. So I like Green Bay at home this

01:23:28
week by 3 1/2. You got to give away 3 1/2

01:23:30
points, but I think they're going to cover that.

01:23:32
Against the NFC Championship participant Washington

01:23:37
Commanders. It's ballsy.

01:23:38
I like it. And you also kind of went

01:23:40
offside. What we normally do.

01:23:42
We normally don't do our Island games separately bets, but we'll

01:23:45
let you this one week. That's right, take a Sunday

01:23:48
slate. I didn't pay attention to that

01:23:50
is. That a Monday night.

01:23:52
Thursday, Thursday, Thursday, Thursday night game.

01:23:54
Oh, that's all right. You have to get this in a quick,

01:23:56
boys. You have to get this one in when

01:23:57
you hear it. So we're doing Green Bay

01:24:00
Monastery in half. All right.

01:24:01
I'm doing one that none of the other guys like, which means I

01:24:04
kind of like it even more. So I am going to stink of like

01:24:08
how atrocious Cincinnati was, like basically lost to

01:24:11
Cleveland, but for Cleveland being Cleveland should have lost

01:24:15
to Cleveland. True.

01:24:17
I'm going with the old let's go. They're going home and they are

01:24:21
going to be playing with a 3 1/2 points.

01:24:26
Now, I hate the hook against the Jaguars.

01:24:28
So they're home against Jacksonville, who looked good

01:24:30
last week. I'm not going to lie, they look

01:24:32
pretty good. But they look that good.

01:24:34
They look that good. This is Carolina.

01:24:35
Carolina that good. So Cincinnati is going to have a

01:24:38
resurgence this week. Joe Burrows going to say screw

01:24:42
that week one. I'm going to hump up 350.

01:24:45
They're going to score a ton, and they're going to score about

01:24:47
four more points at minimum than the Jacksonville Jaguars.

01:24:51
Take it to the bank, baby -3 1/2 centsy.

01:24:54
There you go, Tommy. I'm going all in with you on

01:24:56
this one, all right? As an added little nugget, I

01:24:59
like the over in that game a lot, Yeah, because I think the

01:25:03
Bengals are going to rebound and they're not going to stop

01:25:06
anyone. So I know the other one I kind

01:25:08
of like is the over, because again, they're not going to stop

01:25:11
anybody and they are going to score.

01:25:14
So that was probably the worst offensive week they're going to

01:25:16
have mean heck, 2720 fours. That's that's the over 2.

01:25:20
So that's not a bad one if you want to double dip in that game.

01:25:23
But our three that we are locking New England plus 1 1/2.

01:25:26
Cincinnati -3 1/2 in Green Bay -3 1/2 Knock it up, go buy a

01:25:30
yacht. Let's go do this thing.

01:25:32
Absolutely. So I think that's going to wrap

01:25:33
us up. So thank you for listening.

01:25:35
Hopefully some of these tidbits can help with our strategies.

01:25:39
Kind of game recaps, what we saw.

01:25:40
I didn't see if you didn't have Red Zone TV and kind of watch

01:25:43
everything. We, we did it for you got some

01:25:45
gambling picks, we got some sleepers, we got some spuds.

01:25:47
I think that's going to do it for the week.

01:25:49
So good luck. Keep your head attached in Week

01:25:52
2 and we'll be right here. Buy a T-shirt and buy a T-shirt

01:25:56
maybe. They look great.

01:25:57
Show me it through. Looks good.

01:25:59
Can't wait. Here's the monkeys.

01:26:00
Here's the monkeys. There we go.

01:26:02
All right, till next week, stay shrewd.

01:26:05
Stay shrewd, everybody.
