Monday Punday flips positive and prescribes Rico DayQuil
A ritual normally dominated 80–20 by fury flips positive after a high-scoring weekend. The resulting list includes Ridley Believe It or Not, Cedric Thrillman, Darnell Money, Glad McConkey, Kade Awesome, Ottenheimer, To Infinity and Devon, Jameis Winston, Whoa Nix, Yay Flowers, Breece Small, That Poop Scott, Troy Stankland, No Bone Zone, Pop Douglas, Tyler Locked Up, Jordan Batterson, Fake London, and favorite Rico DayQuil.
moment
CeeDee leaves a manager 0.9 short despite the second-highest score
An unnamed League of Record manager enters Sunday night needing roughly 34.5 points from CeeDee Lamb. Multiple late touchdowns create hope, but the manager loses by 0.9 while posting the second-most points in the league.
moment
Jason lets the Jets help fill his Dennis Allen thermometer
The official Saints thermometer remains physically mounted behind Jason with only two wins toward the ten-win shaved-head bet. With nine Saints games left, another host proposes combining Saints and Jets wins; Jason agrees to the revised route to losing his luscious locks. Direct frames confirm the thermometer, but no haircut is enacted.
moment
The minibar leads to Marshawn's Hennessy backpack
A Dallas sideline-drink mystery is imagined as hydration, 99 Bananas, white grape juice, or a minibar bottle. That recalls Marshawn Lynch telling Peyton Manning his pregame shot was Hennessy kept in his backpack, after Manning apparently expected a medical injection.
moment
Papa Josh trades for Richardson and starts Bo Nix anyway
Papa Josh acquires Anthony Richardson from a host for two FAAB, then wisely goes to waivers and starts that same host's Bo Nix stream over his new quarterback—and uses it against the host.
moment
Al loses audio and Falcon says it is a long season
With Arizona temporarily seeded above Green Bay and San Francisco, a host asks Al how he feels; Al cannot talk and receives a 'very good audio' jab. Falcon is then asked about the 49ers looking up at the Cardinals and audibly answers, 'Long season.' Published video cuts to a fully occupied three-human Deucers Alley during the exchange.
moment
NFL headquarters buys bidets and PIN-free ATMs instead of cameras
While demanding permanent goal-line cameras, the hosts say they have visited NFL headquarters, where every toilet has a bidet and the ATMs do not require PIN codes. The league is told to use that money to buy cameras. Direct frames show the host desk only, not headquarters or a custom visual.
moment
Richardson gets VR, a side field, and a giant Dave & Buster's machine
Anthony Richardson taking himself out because he is tired becomes a full remedial academy: a separate side field for target practice, Jeremy's Jayden Daniels VR comparison, an enlarged Dave & Buster's football-hole machine that Richardson might break, and a twenty-play script snake-drafted backward, flipped, and mirrored.
moment
Mike defends Walker inside the No Bone Zone
Kenneth Walker's nine-carry stat line triggers a No Bone Zone, but Mike rejects the boo: a snap flew roughly thirty yards behind Geno Smith, Walker recovered it and gained yardage back, yet received a negative run; later Seattle used Charbonnet because the game was lost and protected Walker for the next week.
moment
Falcon is still at work, sweating, caffeinated, and on a timer
A breaking-news cue says the Falcons showed up to work, but the hosts say everyone already knows Matt appears; the news is that he is still there. During a direct full-booth cut, Falcon confirms coffee, is described as sweating, and is characterized as wanting the long show wrapped because another work timer is running. The video confirms his presence, not a close-up of sweat or mug contents.
summary
Episode notes
Andy, Jason, and Mike are all present. Monday Punday flips from its usual fury to an approximately 80–20 positive reaction and supplies Ridley Believe It or Not, Cedric Thrillman, Darnell Money, Glad McConkey, Kade Awesome, Ottenheimer, To Infinity and Devon, Jameis Winston, Whoa Nix, Yay Flowers, Breece Small, That Poop Scott, Troy Stankland, No Bone Zone, Pop Douglas, Tyler Locked Up, Jordan Batterson, Fake London, and Rico DayQuil. An unnamed League of Record manager needs roughly 34.5 CeeDee Lamb points, receives almost all of them, and loses by 0.9 despite scoring the league's second-most points. The physical set still carries Jason's official Dennis Allen thermometer: direct published frames visibly show the ten-slot prop behind him, while dialogue says the Saints remain on two wins with nine games left and Jason even accepts combining Saints and Jets wins to reach the ten-win shaved-head threshold. No haircut occurs. A Cowboys drinking tangent imagines 99 Bananas or minibar juice, then recalls Marshawn Lynch telling Peyton Manning his pregame shot was Hennessy from his backpack. Papa Josh receives praise for acquiring Anthony Richardson for two FAAB but wisely waivering and starting the host's Bo Nix stream instead. When the Cardinals are temporarily above the Packers and 49ers, the program cuts to a fully occupied three-human Deucers Alley: Al's audio fails, Falcon audibly answers 'Long season,' and Papa Josh is also visible in the row; no cardboard bear is present. The hosts demand goal-line cameras after recalling that NFL headquarters has bidets on every toilet and ATMs that need no PIN. Anthony Richardson's self-requested breather becomes a separate target-practice field, Jeremy's Jayden Daniels VR suggestion, an oversized Dave & Buster's passing machine, and snake-drafted scripted plays run backward and mirrored. Mike's Kenneth Walker defense reopens the No Bone Zone: he argues a negative run came from recovering a snap thirty yards behind the play and that Seattle intentionally rested Walker once the game escaped. Near the close, a direct booth cut again shows all three producers while Falcon is told everyone knows he showed up but the real news is that he is still at work; he confirms coffee, is described as sweating, and wants the long episode wrapped because he is on a timer. The camera establishes Falcon's presence, but the coffee and sweat are dialogue details rather than independently legible close-ups. No costume or physical punishment is enacted, and no Jay Griz image, drop, mention, or fill-in appears.
to the fantasy footballers podcast with your host, Andy Holloway, Jason Moore, and Mike Wright. Oh, welcome in. The Fantasy Footballers podcast, Monday edition, Jason Moore, Mike Wright, Andy Holloway, back with you. What a weekend. That was awesome. Bears fans looking like the De Wade statue this morning. Oh, aghast at the Hail Mary. That was, it's fun to be on the winning side of that, but it's devastating if you're on the other end. I mean, I remember the Cardinals in the, was it the playoff game or the Packer game where Aaron Rogers and Jeff Janice and. Yeah.
I mean, you just feel like you've been cheated. Yeah, because you won the game, but then you didn't. However, in that specific game, it really felt like the commanders. They were going to beat the tar out of the bears, and it was unfair that the bears were going to sneak out of win. So I kind of was okay with it, especially considering that the commanders were at home. If there is a, if there is a Hail Mary changed a loss into a victory, I always want that to be at the home. For the people? Yeah, because otherwise it's like, you know.
Yeah. 80,000 people just destroyed. Just go home sad, everybody. All you family members and kids that came out here to watch this lovely game you love, eat it, go home. No, I want them to do what they did and go home and have a lifelong memory of I was at that game. Yeah. Yeah, it was, and you had the screenshots afterwards and the video afterwards of Stevenson, of Stevenson, the Bears cornerback, midplay taunting the, commanders fans now to his credit he came out early this morning apologized you know didn't double down on nothing there but then he's the one that ran over and tipped the ball up in the air in the most come up in some moment of if you haven't seen it what happened on that play is there's there's like you know personal recordings from the stands of people watching he is walking back to towards the end zone
Facing away from the play, pointing at the crowd. And all of a sudden, you see the wide receivers from the commanders running towards the end zone. So he's like, oh, I should be part of this play. Then he runs over and tips the ball up in the air, right to the commander's. That's the no no on the Hail Mary. Yeah. You've got to bat it down. You don't tip it up. That's how it happens. That's how you lose. But that was just one play of many this week. And this was by far. the most positive reactions to the weekend. Like the studs on today's Studs and Duds episode are, there's so many of them. Yeah, because we had actual offense. There was tons of offense. The Monday Punday submissions, which are normally entirely marked by people's fury and disappointment and sadness to like an 80-20, flipped the other direction completely this morning.
A lot of people have you. I really think we should petition the NFL to make a national tight end week like every week. Just what about other positions? Well, sure. That's a good point. Yeah, national quarterback day, wide receiver day. National running back reception day. Oh, let's take it to the next level. You want to nuance this thing. Well, I want a fantasy this thing. I don't care about handoffs. No kicker day? Yeah. All fourth downs? I like it. The national go for it on four. Yeah. Yes, sir. But yesterday, 17 touchdowns to tight ends. How is that? For the record, we had been averaging seven, seven point four touchdowns to the tight end position every week. So it's all fixed? I guess so. Every tight end is good? Yeah, no, it's great. Cool. Cool. I'll definitely consider the position settled on my roster. We fixed it. All right. Like I said, you guys submitted your reactions to the weekend via.
pun and we uh we were happy to see how many positive ones they were there were uh let's jump in i'll start it yeah yes with ridley believe it or not oh i don't like this one cedric thrillman oh i love it droid me everywhere oh darnel money and jason uh i'll give you one of these but rad mcconkey glad mcconkey baby oh kade awesome kate awesome is that's pretty good i also saw uh Ottenheimer. Oh. Not bad. Oh. To infinity. And Devon. Hmm. How about James Winston? Or, whoa, Knicks. And yay, flowers. But they weren't all good. Oh, no. You had Brie Small. What? That poop, Scott. I like that. And Troy Stankland. Oh, Jason. And this week, it was the no bone zone. What, another one?
Hey, poop Douglas. I don't mind just all the poop? Tyler locked up. Yeah, you got Jordan Batterson, fake London. And my personal favorite of the day, Rico Dayquil. Rico Dayquil. Oh, man. Oh, that is. The stadium was fresh out of Dayquil. That is a, that is a mystery of what's going on over there. Yeah, Dallas. Dallas tried to come back. They gave me a shot in our League of Record. You mean C.D. Lamb did? Yeah, I mean, I needed, I went into the night needing 35 points or 34 and a half points from C.D. Lamb. So I was passively watching the game. And all of a sudden, every time I looked over, Citi was in the end zone, I lost by 0.9. Yeah. With the second most points scored in the league. So for those of you out there, because it was a big week fantasy points wise. So there were a lot of high scores, which mean there were people that.
we're in that boat, the same boat that I was in, where you scored a ton of points and you still took an out. So I'm trying to focus on the fact my team scored a lot of points, and there's a lot of football left. So there you go. Instagram at the at Fantasy Footballers, Twitter at the FF Ballers, if you want to submit your Monday pundays for next week. Let's get into Ready to Roll. Welcome to Ready to Roll, presented by Nissan. Eight weeks into the season, two months into this season, we have some data. We have some information. We know how things are going based on this draft strategy you might have selected. And one of the more popular, I guess, what would you call it? Like detour strategy-wise? It's a, I mean, it's a contrarian strategy from the general thinking and consensus, at least for how.
fantasy players have played historically. And I would say still for the most part, they do. So we're talking about zero RB strategy, a theory that became in vogue years ago. Sean Siegel talking about avoiding fragility at the running back position, trying to find wide receivers, difference making tight ends in the first six rounds, and then looking to the running back position later on in the draft. Yeah. And there are. There are, this is a method of drafting that absolutely can win, has won many huge tournaments. You know, a lot of times when you look at the big, massive tournament plays, 0RB sometimes wins because the positive outcome on the best case scenario is massive. But some years, works really, really well. Some years, it doesn't. And this year was very interesting leading in because there were so many wide receivers drafted in the first round.
And usually it's the inverse. Usually it's all running backs and a couple wide receivers or a quarterback here or a tight end there. It's often the pendulum swings based off of what happened last year. And last year, the running backs, the early round running backs were extremely disappointing. It's not our commentary on ZRB today reflecting on the data through two months is not meant to be any sort of decisive, you know. commentary on whether it's a good or bad strategy each and every year, but rather point out a little bit of the vulnerability of the strategy. Because, you know, we, we had several mock drafts that were run. And I'll point to one that Papa Josh did where he navigated the zero RB. And, you know, you looked at a draft that we did in the off season where Harrison and Pooka and Kua to start the draft.
and then Amari Cooper, Terry McLaren. So you go six rounds, no running back, and then you turn your attention to, you know, starters that have opportunities. And at the time when he made this draft, this was a really well-executed zero-rb example of trying to get the late-round running backs that might be better than you think. But if you ended up with, like he went four running backs at that point, rounds seven through 11, Zemir White. Zach Moss. Nope. Jerome Ford. It started okay for Zach Moss. Jerome Ford, obviously kind of dealt with injury, some oddities with the playing time, and then Rico Dowdell. And so I guess the point being, the way it's worked out this year, like if you look at running backs taken round seven or later and the fantasy points per game, there are a few, the Chuba Hubbard's, Brian Robinson,
Tony Pollard's been okay. J.K. Dobbins, you found late and found some opportunities. And Jordan Mason, if you happen to be drafting late enough to know, you know, Elijah Mitchell was injured and Jordan Mason was going to be the guy. The reality is that it was a little bit more threading the needle this year to get it right. And, you know, it's tough because it's the hardest position to find. on the waiver wire throughout the season to find, you know, long-term viability. Now, it looks like maybe Chuba will be that, right? Chuba, Jonathan Brooks may not come back this year. Maybe Chuba Hubbard will be one of those few. But think about all the other names that people invested into that thought they might find that opportunity. You can look to rookies, right? You can look to Blake Corum and Trey Benson who haven't been able to produce. You can look at
Ty Chandler, who you thought was maybe going to get a 50-50 shot with Aaron Jones, hasn't happened. Marshaun Lloyd, another rookie, Julio McLaughlin, a committee back that didn't work out. Jalen Warren hasn't been able to get it going. Echler not really getting it going, Tajay Spears. Like a lot of the zero RB running backs this year, round seven or later, it hasn't worked out. And on the other side of the coin, the teams that are winning right now, They've got those foundational backs that were invested into the Saquan Barclays, Jamir Gibbs, Henry, Kyron, Jacobs, the top tier running backs for the most part have stayed healthy. There have been misses. Yeah, I mean, a lot of the injuries at the top, A.J. Brown missed the month. Puka was bad. Harrison has been a disappointment. It's just kind of flipped this year. But I would say if we want to be prescriptive a little bit and talk about when it works versus when it doesn't, I want to remember how the.
The whole point, the entire point of what allows zero RB to really smash, like if five people in your league are doing zero RB, it's not going to work. The thing is, is while everyone is loading up on these running backs and allowing superstar wide receivers to drop and you can take stud, stud, and you just mash the button on incredible depth at that position and then fill it in later, that's helpful. But this year, it wasn't that way. People weren't letting stud wide receivers drop to the 1-2 turn. You know, the guys that on previous seasons, we were getting at the 1-2 turn were like the wide receiver 4 or 5, or the wide receiver 4 and 5 there. And then this year is like, you're getting the wide receiver 9, 10 by ADP. So I would say look, like you said, Mike, usually next year's ADP is going to be based on what happens this year. The running backs are going to, they will rock it up. And so if next year it flips, ironically,
people will not want to do zero RB because of the failure of this season. And that's when you probably want to take your shot. And we did have, I mean, some of the anti-fragility stuff, it didn't work out in the wide receivers favor this year. A.J. Brown, Pooka, Kouka, Cooper Cup. Those were top tier wide receivers. Tyreek Hill lost his quarterback. Marvin Harrison started slow. Maybe is still starting slow. Like a lot of those big names didn't. offer you the consistency you hope for. Yeah, at the top of the wide receiver draft is wild. I will be, I'm going to be excited at the end of the season to, like, look at the actual bust rate, the consistency rate of these early wide receivers who are, historically an early wide receiver is a, it's a great bet, you know, a slightly higher hit rate than the early round running backs. But it feels like it is completely upside down. On top of that, the early round tight ends, it's like,
If you took Kelsey, LaPorta, Andrews, Kincaid, those are the early tight ends. Those guys are not providing a positional advantage, or at least Kelsey, it's a lot better now. But they're just saying, like, over the course of the season, you're not happy with those draft picks. And the same for the quarterback where, like, Allen has been very hot cold. Jalen Hertz had a lull at the beginning of the year. Mahomes is a catastrophe. It's like if you got Lamar, out of that fourth back, then you're super pumped that you went that direction. So it's just, this year is really strange that the early running backs are crushing and the early other positions are not. And the truth is, is if it goes bad for ZRB, it can go really, really bad because you need to be able to buy, like it gains strength as the season goes on. So you need to be able to buy some wins early on the back of the wide receiver and tight end and those.
piecemeal players before you can go and acquire. Like you can invest a lot of fab in solidifying your running back position or trying to. Could have gone out and spent for Cream Hunt or somebody like that. But if you start two and five, that's a tough battle back into contention. So we just wanted to illustrate kind of what happened this year and shine a light onto the way ZeroRB has panned out for a lot of people this year. End of season. It's going to be very interesting to see what it looks like compared to a couple years ago. All right, that was ready to roll.

The weekend was not without its injuries. Stefan Diggs, non-contact right knee injury. Have you heard any updates? I haven't heard any updates, but usually when you see that, that's, I mean, I could think of one example, you know, where I remember it looked like a B season enter. It wasn't, but this is usually. Yeah, we've seen this play before. Yeah, I mean, it's so common. When, when you're not contacted and your knee goes out, that's, that means you probably torn ACL. We don't have reporting on that yet, but as of this moment, I am assuming Stefan Diggs is done for the season. Christian Kirk out for the year of the fractured collarbone. Brian Thomas Jr. left early in the game against the Packers with a rib injury, having an MRI. They're looking for fractures. Gabe Davis, their other wide receiver, exited in the second quarter with a shoulder injury that he re-agravated. He didn't return.
Jacksonville's wide receiver court potentially wiped out in one week. Evan Ingram is the new David Nojoku. Yeah, that Jaggs Packer game. And that went down to the wire. For, for fantasy purposes, I mean, it really, things really screwed up there. Well, I mean, things did not go according to plan. Jordan Love, unfortunately, he got, he got hurt. And he got hurt early in the game. We were watching, you know, I know he was playing poorly. before he left the game and didn't come back. But he was injured early in that game. I mean, we saw it, and his passes, his throws, his mobility while he was playing what little of the game left before he exited. He was not himself. And so, like, he missed like almost the second half, right? Yeah, yeah. I mean, he missed a bunch, but I know people were. People were upset that he hadn't done much.
to that point and it was like he he got injured and i mean we were watching the whole game was like oh my gosh he is he is dealing with some well and in the big divisional matchup with the lions he's probably he's in jeopardy of missing next week drake may left with a concussion did not return uh kindrey miller left with an oh my hamstring injury gracious i hadn't seen that yet for real oh man dentist Dennis, your favorite guy got hurt. I noticed that these Saints thermometer behind you that threatened your your head. My luscious locks. Your luscious luck. It was supposed to fill up to 10 wins and then we'd shave your head on the air. It is still at the point where we stuck it on the wall. So here's a thing. They got two wins on the season and they need eight more to shave my head. There are nine total games left for the Saints. Now I got good news for you Saints fans.
You play the Panthers this week. What if we combine it? So maybe you get one more. Can we combine it with the Jets and see if both teams combine for 10 wins? Yeah, sure. Have that. We can have to tear this thing off the wall. Remember last week when I said on the show, what if they lose this game? About the Jets. Oh, do you remember that? Yes. I was like, what if they lose this game to New England? It's, um, it happened. It happened in unbelievable fashion where they, they held the opponent under 250 yards. They did not turn the ball over. I believe that is, it's something like 750 and 0 when those two statistics are true since 1970. I don't know what happened. They still lost the game. It's a mystery to all. I, Jets fans know what happened. What happened? They're the Jets. They're cursed. It's like some, some franchises.
Ah, yes. You just know, you're like, you're pessimistic and you're like, look, as a Cardinals fan, I know we're sitting top of the division, but we suck. We're number one. And I'm fully expecting everything to go bad because I know it will. You know, it's like some franchises are just meant to lose. And I'm sorry Jets fans. I wish I wish that it was. Can they like move on to another team? Like, because there's got to be, this has got to be the most painful season. No, if you're a Jets fan, you got to stay a Jets fan. You got to keep hoping and riding the wave. I mean, the older thing I'm happy about. You know, that was cool. Yeah, he predicted it. The only thing I'm happy about because I am sad for Jets fans. Jets fans deserve some happiness. I know I dunk on the Jets a lot. But that's really, I mean, that's really an Air. It's not a Jets thing. That's an Aaron Rogers thing. I like dunking on Aaron Rogers and his whiny, whiny face. And I think.
If Jets fans are being honest with themselves, they get it. They're like, yeah, I get it. Who's fault was this one, you think, Rogers thinks? Everyone else. Kendry Miller, like I said, he left early. He'll probably be in the dog house for that. What a loser. He looked great on two different runs that did not count and were both called back. Jordan Mason aggravated his shoulder injury. They said maybe he could have come into the game. At this point, it doesn't matter. Christian McCaffrey is expected to practice during the team's week nine by, so they are gone. They're on by.
So if you had Mason, say bye. That was so brutal of him leaving the game two weeks ago with the shoulder injury. Then he plays after feeling really uncomfortable about the start, makes it through. You got to feel great going against the Dallas Cowboys rushing defense, which, you mean, look at Isaac Garrendo, the rookie who dominated them. So it. I started Mason in multiple places, and that was brutal. Well, yeah, who wouldn't have? Yeah, that's just brutal. That's the process. I think there's going to be a lot of questions now with either picking up Garendo or just dropping Jordan Mason because the expectation is Christian McEffers is going to be back in week 10. That is the expectation that is not a guarantee. And then they're on by this week. And I would say in general, unless you absolutely have to have a roster spot and you're going to basically.
I would try to not move on. I'm not trying to make Mason. Yeah, exactly. We do not know that Christian McCaffrey, despite the fact that they also said that he would be ready for week one. Yes, remember that. Ready and in the utilization levels, and we've had seasons in fantasy where Elijah Mitchell was still getting work with Christian McCaffrey on the field. Mason should be rostered and stay rostered. Devo, Samuel left early due to a rib injury. So don't. You know, Juan Jennings missed this week. He gets the by week to recover. Ayuk is not coming back. Just keep that in the back of your head because I would have a hard time believing if somebody spin up on Juan Jennings his past week. He ends up out. They've got another week. They've got to worry about. He's going to hit a lot of waiver wires just under the radar. If you're already in contention, you don't need to start somebody. Pay attention to him. And we'll talk about it on the waiver show tomorrow. And Mike, Rico Dowell left.
No, he didn't leave. He was inactive due to an illness. He didn't have the... You don't think he was an illness? I only say that because of what's coming out from Cowboys Beat reporters on Twitter. They're all like, they're all saying it without saying it. I was like, Rigo Dato was here. He was signing autographs. Like I didn't see anything. He must have, it must really happen in the locker room. Was he drinking on the sidelines? No, he wasn't. Like Dalvin Cook? I'm not really sure. We don't know what he was drinking. Yeah. Look, that could have been hydration. That could have been 99 bananas. Who's to say? That came straight from the mini bar, man. Yeah, it could have been a little juice shot. Yeah. A little juice shot in a glass bottle. Yeah. Show me one of those. We're not sure what that was. No, it was clear. But the point being. Clear juice. Plenty of them. Plenty of beat reports. Strong arguments. It was white grape juice in a little glass bottle. Plenty of beat report is just saying it's, it was a weird situation of.
They didn't see him being... He's probably frustrated. Any sort of ill. And then he... Look, and Dalvo Cook played great, guys. That's that? Yeah. Yeah. But Zeke played really, really well, too. Zeke actually did look pretty good on a couple. Yes, he did. There were a couple carries where he looked all right. Yes. When it's like second and long, they're like, there's no way they're going to run this ball. And then they run it. And he gets a six-yard gain. You're like, well, yeah, of course. They both looked awful. The Cowboys run game is non-existent. They need a real player in there. That real player probably still isn't Rico Dowdell, but he is the best of the three. But they're probably not going to use him. Going back to Dalvin Cook's drinking. Do you guys remember the video where Peyton Manning is interviewing Marshawn Lynch? Oh yes. Oh, yes. So Peyton Manning's interviewing Marshall Lynch. This is post career.
And he's just like, you know, what was your pregame warm up or whatever? He tells Peyton, man, he's like, well, you know, every day before the game, I'd take a shot. And Peyton, I think it seemed like he genuinely thought like, like, like, like, I don't know what kind of like a needle. He's like tortural or he's going to be throwing out the, the medicines that the people get. They get an injection. Yeah. He's like, I think it was like, Hennessy. Yeah. Yeah. He's like, well, where do you get that? And he's like, from my backpack. Marshawn, man. One of a kind. Oh, my gosh. All right. That was today's news and notes presented by USAA Insurance. Learn more at USA.com slash insurance. We'll take a break. We'll hit the studs. I'm pretty sure Cowboys fans were just like past the bottle. You know what I mean? Right. It's like watching that team looks. That game was that offense was broken for three cores. I kept messaging our company slack of.
Like, what is this offense? It's just dumping the ball off to Jake Ferguson, who's two yards away from him and then getting throttled. I did agree with the commentator last night. That pointed out the fact that that cannot move the way he used to move. And I think that that has played a role right now in moving in the pocket, getting outside the pocket. taking a, you know, taking the five or six free yards. To me, he looks, he just looks bigger. He looked like he's not sleeping well. Uh, not sleeping well. Is this a sleep number? I'm just asking questions. Man, maybe, uh, maybe, uh, sleep numbers not doing the job, huh? I was, uh, got to go pod four. I didn't say, I asked questions over here, guys. Listen, he is on pace right now through.
through six games. I don't want to count this last week because he had negative one rushing yard. Okay, so I'm going to take that out even though that should exist. This week? Yes. You're taking out the one he just played. Prior to this week, because you talked about, I mean, you saw in that game he didn't run. He was immobile. The previous six games, what do you think Dak Prescott's 17 game pace of total rushing yards is? And to give you context for his career. Like last season, he was at 242. Yeah, he's a couple hundred yards guy. I would have guessed having no context because I wasn't paying attention. I would have guessed like 200. Yeah, I had the same. I probably would have as well. Without the negative one rushing yard yesterday, he was on pace for 70 total rushing yards. That's not even a... In the course of the season, that's Big Ben. So that just adds more fuel to what we were seeing. And they don't... Like I...
