54:05 ↗

He's the backup for every position. Yeah, he's everybody's back. He's everybody's backup. Wide receivers that laid an egg, we talked about Marvin Jones, who was one for 15. Golden Tate said, hey, I can do that too. Three for 27. Odell Beckham, Jr., not what you hoped for. Five for 46, no scores, but has Cleveland next week. And there's no real question about starting Odell Beckham, Jr. Calvin Benjamin let me down. He was one of the guys. He got hurt. He was just start of the week. Yeah, Benjamin, three for 56.

54:35 ↗

Yes, he did get hurt. He got banged up. He was gone for a portion of that game. What do you guys think about this Eli Rogers regression? Four for 20 against Cleveland. I think it was a product of Big Ben stinking. Yeah, the weather. And also it was a product of Levi-on Bell. Was he over 200 total yards? I think he was. He was over 100 in the first quarter. I mean, he was outrageous. He just took over. They didn't need Big Ben. The wind was terrible. So, yeah, you have.

55:03 ↗

You have Eli Rogers with 4 for 20, definitely let you down. I mean, we were hot on him early, but we kind of pulled back as the week went on with all the weather reports there. Going forward, Indiana, Indianapolis, and a dome, I still think he would be a sneaky snark. Devante Adams, three for 42, another disappointing game. He had a bad drop on a play and did not perform for you. Devante Adams did? He was, it's tough.

55:32 ↗

Yeah. It's tough because these guys, they get you to the point where you're like, must start, which is what Adams had been. I mean, Adams had been a top 10 wide receiver for weeks and just had a down game, has Philly next week. So I think Adams, you just have to play those matchups with the guys that are on your roster. Tight end wise that a number of players. Everybody's. Everybody laid in aches. Look, look at these bad performances here. Greg Olson stunk, Delaney Walker stunk, Eifford Stunk, Brate Stunk, Rudolph.

56:01 ↗

Thomas. Vernon Davis. Vernon Davis didn't even seem to play. Between you and I, you know, our Jack Doyle and Bernard Davis, they were bad. Thank goodness everybody was bad because you probably played somebody and if they didn't have Eric Ebron, you both stunk at tight end and it probably didn't kill you. Right. Martel's Bennett stunk too, by the way, and he had the biggest opportunity. Yes. And of course, you know, he blocked the whole game because Bill Belichick is Bill Belichick. So what you...

56:31 ↗

You know, he thinks something's coming. There were really no tight ends that, I mean, you had Zach Miller who was probably the best, and he got injured. Zach Ertz, did you guys see that, that, I don't know how long it was. It was very long. Like a 30, 40 yard touchdown because of Aguilar. Because of a yard. That was just so dumb to me. It was like, that did not affect the play at all. I know it's within the rulebook. A guy was like six inches away from where he should be. It was just so dumb.

57:01 ↗

Yeah, looking at the top tight ends, it's just funny the names that are in there because these are guys that most people didn't. Like, Jermaine Gresham. Jermaine Gresham was the number eight tight end on the week. All right, let's talk about kickers. We already said kickers were bad this year. Now you had 12 extra points were missed this week, including. Was this a strike?

57:26 ↗

By the kickers? Was this a movement where they're like, we want the extra point. Move it forward. Everyone missed one. Oh, my goodness. Take it for the team. You know who didn't miss one? One of the few that didn't miss one. My boom boom, boom kicker of the week. Yeah. There were 12 misses. There were 12 misses and none of them were Aguayo. I was going to say, you know who was actually good? I know. Aguio. Aguio was probably super happy this week.

57:51 ↗

Just to add to the pain, Adam Venetary missed his first field goal in 45 attempts. Oh, cut him. What a loser. Did he miss an extra point? 65, 65? 75. Yeah, 70. Did you see, sorry, the tangent, did you see the clip of the 55 year old guy who took a carry in college ball? No. Fantastic. 55? He set the record for being the oldest player, and he got three yards. Can you do that?

58:20 ↗

Yeah. Can you go, like, if I go to college right now, you have, you have eligibility. I have eligibility. Yeah. So this guy, his dream was a play. Something you could have told me yesterday. We're canceling the show. I'm only 32. So it just, it was awesome.

58:35 ↗

So to see this guy, and the whole team was psyched. Sorry, I sidetracked this. Did he get blown up and has a concussion now? No. He got us three yards and he rolled off into the sun. Like Rudy. I was so pissed early in the game because I had dropped Houska for Gostkowski and then Goscowski misses the extra point right off the bat. And then like a minute later, Houska misses his extra point. I'm like, what is happening with kickers?

58:55 ↗

You got to stop buying into Goskowski. No, I don't. Yes, you do. You were fine streaming kickers, and all of a sudden you saw Gaskowski on the waivers. And you remember days gone by when you and Goskowski sprinted through the meadows and... It took me weeks to find... Butterfly kisses. It took me weeks to finally accept that Goskowski is not...

59:16 ↗

what he had been. Hey, you're the one who put him on the waiver. And I said that I'm sending this poison away because someone else is going to buy into it. Big time waiver show tomorrow.
