Week 4 Studs & Duds + Spooky Season - Fantasy Football Podcast for 10/2

poster of the movie stepbrothers and they had put their faces on them because insinuating did we just become best friends and apparently best friends don't throw catchable targets to each other yeah I think when I declare some of my best friend I give them good gifts I give yeah yes I give them so many great presents Jordan Addison oh my goodness I don't understand how I don't understand what happened for the Vikings. Like, they, they started with a pick six, and then they went on to win the game. They ran fewer. But Hawkinson sucked. Like, Kirk Cousin sucked. Addison is only on the field in 11 personnel. They ran fewer 11 personnel snaps. Such a strange decision to us, but they won the game, so then they're going to pat themselves on the back. Jacoby Myers, it didn't happen. Aiden O'Connell was the rookie who played for the Raiders. Jacoby did have a huge. You talk about Farva?

Yeah, he really, really wanted a leader of cola. And Jacoby did have a huge catch that was called back on an OPI. They would have saved the day for him. But the fill-in rookie quarterbacks was not a great day for them. Tank Dell, not a great day. George Kittle, one target. Super disappointed. Debo had zero catches. George Kittle had one catch. But Christian McGot-Frey had all of the yards. It was basically a two-man show. If they were passing the ball, it was down the field deep to a pretty much wide open Brandon Ayuk. And otherwise, it was just give the ball to Christian McCaffrey and let him do his work. That's the issue with the San Francisco 49ers is that there is not a consolidation. There's four phenomenal talented players on this roster. And you're not going to usually have more than two of them.

Have a great game at the same time. T.J. Hawkinson, also, another one that was shocking to me. He only had two for 24. And just a matter of happenstance, I guess, you know, when you're trying to watch nine TVs and you see both of Hawkinson's good receptions, like, oh, no, Hawkinson's getting worked in. No, no. What a weird day for the Minnesota Vikings. Also, apparently it wasn't good enough for Brooks. Alexander Madison had himself another really strong game on the ground. Cam Acres was the backup. They said they were going to ride the hot hand. They gave Alexander Madison plenty of opportunity. I think he played like the whole, the first two drives, looked very competent again on the ground. Cam Acres will eat into the workload. So how are you now? Like you guys were not on the Madison side like I was. So how do you feel now about the situation to?

not huge fantasy games because he didn't get a touchdown, but two very strong rushing performances that looks like this is a starting running back. He just needed that motivation, man. He needed Cam on the team to finally get up there. 5.6 yards of carry. He had a very nice game. Commanding market share leader in that backfield. It's only the first game for Cam. So I'm not going to read too much into the splits yet. But it says, you know, you could keep starting Alexander Madison until otherwise, you know. I think that's probably good advice. Just start him until don't bail. Like don't just, he's had two good games. Yeah. I think the Vikings will keep going to him. But there is a chance that he fumbles and then it's done. And then it's the Cam Acres show. Dallas Goddard. This is concerning. At what point do we downsize his pants?

Because this guy has been, he's just stuck. Let's see you. Let's read the fantasy points so far for Dallas Goddard. Zero. That's a bad one. I hate when I have zero. Five point two, six point six and three point five. Those are fantasy points. Yeah, that's a, yeah, that's on a per week. I mean, that's just terrible. I don't know where you go because, I mean, I'd rather, I think I'd rather play Dallas Goddard than. chasing some new hotness off the waiver wire. But it's like Fergalicious. He might still be on people's waiver wires. I would much rather play Fergalicious. I would rather play Hunter Henry. I think there are guys that started the year on waivers. They're probably picked up, but they might have been picked up by the Dallas Goddard manager. And at this point, I mean, we've got a month of not good utilization. And it's with a new offensive coordinator. And the team is undefeated.

So it's not like it's, you know, it's, this could just be the new norm. And Kyle Pitts is here, but he'll be here every week. Kyle Pitts doesn't deserve to be here. Yeah, it wouldn't. At what point do we downsize his pants? I think last year. I mean, Kyle Pitts does not have big boy pants. Kyle Pitts should not be rostered. And, uh, you move on. Atlanta, trade him. Do it. Do it. Do the right thing. We made it through the show. Uh, does anybody have anything else that we missed? Any new, any breaking news back there, Brooks? No, sir. We're doing all right. So that'll do it for today's show. Tomorrow, it is waiver time. We've got some big decisions that we will have to make. A couple of interesting running back targets. But that'll do it for the deucers, for Jay Riz, for Jason, for me. See you tomorrow. Goodbye. Thank you for listening to another episode of the Fantasy Footballers podcast.
