Since he got injured in the last five games when he's been back, he's on 142 target pace. He is getting passes and opportunity thrown his way. It has not resulted in fantasy glory, but I believe in the talent of Higgins. It hasn't been awful. Right, and it hasn't been bad. It's not been just, you know, terrible for your team. It's basically scoring 10 points every single week. I really like T. Higgins.

Inside the episode
145 passagesAll right. How about this one? Instagram question from Casey. Would you trade? We built this. Never. Would you trade Michael Pittman for Chris Godwin? Oh, man. Yes, I would. That's that's cashing in. Follow up. Would you? Thank you. Follow up. Would you trade Pittman for David Montgomery? If I needed a running back, sure. Yeah. Of course you would. That's a very fair value. All right.
I love Pitman rest of season. But for Chris Godwin, with the current status of Antonio Brown. And the status of Rob Gronk and everything. Ribskowski. You can't get back. You. Yes. Yes. Go get Chris Godwin. I really enjoyed that pivot from never to. Yeah. Yeah. Get them. I'm trying to be reasonable. No, it's good. I'm not, I'm not criticizing you. I really enjoyed it. Jets are starting Mike White this week. Oh. Eliza. And then. Elijah.
Elijah Moore. I would like him a lot more with Mike White. Yeah, Corey Davis is back this week. And then Zach Wilson is going to use the week to get healthier, you know? Yeah. Him and Donald. Just get healthy. Let's get healthy. We're going to let these backups. Are they still passing X-rays around in New York? Thursday night breakdown. It's just, it's the same x-ray.
Is there a doctor? They borrowed one. Is there an, no, is there a doctor out there that is like, this is what his specialty is? Like they go, let's go second opinion. I'll find your injury. What's, what's hurting? Which area of his body? It starts filing. Why don't you know? Through the drawer. Man, yeah. How did we knew? We knew Sam would, they would find a way to keep him out this game. They have to. He is a.
He is a broken man. They could be a playoff team if they win this week in Atlanta loses. They could be in the playoffs. Absolutely, because their defense is great. And when they've got Christian McCaffrey, they usually win the game. Since we're just on the topic, I don't even want to say it. Oh, then say it. But is there any chance that maybe how bad he's been playing lately is because he's got a fracture in his throwing shoulder? Like he's been throwing the ball.
Terribly. He was not throwing the ball that bad at the beginning of the year. Is it possible that maybe it's because he's got a broken bone in his shoulder? It just happened, though. I think he's been dealing with it for a while, though. And then they've just finally found out what it is. No, because these are decision-making interceptions. Oh, yeah. The scapula didn't affect the rolling left, throwing it, you know, 10 feet over his guy's head, pick six. Throwing it over to the head, might. His shoulders. I will leave room for margin that.
Perhaps. Oh, come on, guys. Oh, I'm not saying he's good. Then he's had a broken scapula since he got drafted based on this argument. As a solid counter punch. It took a really long time to find it. It's been broken since the draft. Yeah. No, he stinks. Thursday night, reminder, take your players out of the flex, put them into your positional spots.
The Baltimore Ravens at 6 and 2 taking on the 2 and 7 Miami, the Draft King Sportsbook line, Baltimore minus 7 and a half. The overrunners 46 and a half in this game. Tua is a game time decision with the finger. Tua is not going to play. He is a game time decision with the finger, but everything that I see from, you know, medical doctors in the industry, pretty much all of them would say that he will be active in a backup because they.
They don't have another option, but that he will not be the starter. Okay. Storylines from this game then. You have Miles Gaskin who managed to ping pong his way to a nice finish last week. Jacoby Resett will be behind center if Tua doesn't play. You know, I like Mike Gisciki a ton. You know, Baltimore is so vulnerable to. Oh my gosh. Do you guys realize? I knew Miles Gaskin had a good fantasy game. Do you know his actual game line?
No, but I want to. He carried the ball 20 times. What? He had 20 carries? He had 20 carries. In 20 carries, how many rushing yards did Miles Gaskin put up against the Houston Texans? Well, let's say it was bad. Let's say it was three yards of carry. Okay. Okay, so 60. You're going to need to go down. Okay, let's say it's really bad. Okay. 50. You're going to have to keep going down. 40.
He had 20 carries. He had 20 carries. Below 40 yards. 30. 34. 20 for 34. That is impressive. Well, this is a... How did you get that many carries? How did you stay on the field? This is a terrible offensive line. They have given up 47 more pressures on their quarterback.
than the next closest team, which is Carolina. This offensive line has made it difficult on the running backs, the quarterbacks. Three other linemen are tied for the most pressures allowed in the league. They're competing with each other to allow more people to, like, please blitz me so I can take the lead. That's where we're at. So it's going to be tough sledding against Baltimore. Baltimore, they have had a tendency to,
surprise you with who they find themselves in deficits against before they come back and win the game, whether they were getting completely blitzed by Detroit or getting blitzed by the Colts or, you know, even this past week having to come back. But expectations have to be low for this offense in Miami outside of maybe, you know, Mike is sickie who gets seven targets a game. You know, you know, Parker's going to be out. Waddle and a PPR, man. He.
He will be fine. It's not great production, but eight for 83. I mean, he's seeing, you know, over the past month, Jalen Wattle is averaging nearly 11 targets a game. Are you starting Miles Gaskin over any of the Baltimore running backs?
That is a fabulous question. Latvius did not practice. I would not be surprised if he misses this game again. Yeah, I would agree. It's a Thursday game and he's not practicing still. I would certainly start, if that's the situation, I would start Freeman ahead of Miles Gaskin. As would I. But then I would start Gaskin ahead of the next options from Baltimore. On the Baltimore side, Lamar is locked in. As always.
And so should Hollywood Brown. I mean, Hollywood has been outstanding. He's the wider receiver 5 on the year. Rashad Bateman, are you willing to, would you play Waddle or Bateman in this match? Scoring format really does matter because PPR makes it easy. That is Jalen Waddle. If you're down to half or standard, I think it's still probably Waddle. Like,
Baltimore, you're right. They've surprised us in which teams are able to get a lead against them, and they have to come back. I just can't imagine we're going to find the Miami Dolphins up at halftime, and we're all shaking our heads saying, what is happening here? What about Marvin Jones? Would you play Marvin Jones against Indy? That's a good matchup, or would you play Bateman? I would...
I think I'm going to go Marvin Jones, but that one... You said you liked him this week. The excitement is certainly more on the Rashad Bateman's side. He's looked good. He's been getting the targets. He's still a rookie. So the unknown, you know, that's a coin flip situation. I have Marvin Jones at currently at wide receiver 37 and Bateman at 38. So I guess I go with Marvin Jones. Okay. Mark Andrews is locked into your lineup. So that'll do the Thursday night preview.
For the Thursday I preview. Anything else you guys want to add? Any new news there, Brooksie? No new news. Okay. You still incredibly wealthy? Yeah. That's good. It's good to know. Yeah. If something goes wrong here, you can support all of our families for generations. Well, you see inflation. Money, money, money, money. Inflation's going up, but I just want to make sure Brooks is okay. He's the prices of a loaf of bread. He's the reason. Yeah, he's raising the prices on everybody.
Oh, because he's overpaying for stuff? Yeah, like, he just, he got bored a couple weeks ago and he bought Kroger. Right. When he was bored. Yeah, he's like, Brad, double it. You know how, you know how like when sometimes we're bored? Like, I'm going to go make a fantasy trade. Brooks just buys. He acquires businesses. Yes. Yeah. And then he hikes the prices up. Wow. He forces inflation on the economy. That's bro. Well, because it gives him more wealth.
He's a brilliant man. He's a brilliant, brilliant producers and man. It starts to the week tomorrow. Matchups for week 10. Check out the community of Join the Foot.com.
