Week 5 Studs & Duds + Marv Trade Reactions! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 10/12

insane. I'm not sure if that's where he finished. No, he might have been 105. 121. Okay, yeah, the last drive. Their next four games are on the road against the Chiefs, on the road against the Rams, at home against the Texans, and then on the road against Baltimore. At best, they could win one of those four games. So you, at best, would be one in eight. Correct. I mean, I don't think Harbaugh is going to stick around. I think he's going to melt into the concrete. He can't handle losing like this.

T.J. Hawkinson Concussion. Kenyon-Saddyke concussion. Michael Pinnock's left with the rib injury, and they left with a hell. I'm not laughing at the rib injury, laughing at the fact that Tua comes in for, like, what, two plays? Mm-hmm. And throws a just disgusting game-ending interception? Unsurprisingly. I mean, it was impressive. It was just very unsurious. What we all knew was coming. Yeah, and you saw the face that was on the sideline of Michael Pinnock's.

as he's walking under the field with the game ending. And it was the same face that he had right behind him on the sideline early in the preseason. This guy's not a pro quarterback. Can we talk about some studs? Yes, please. This week's fantasy stud muffins. We're back, I guess. We're good. Hey, we figured it out. He's so good for two weeks. They're also three and two now. Drake May, 39.5 fantasy points. Which, this is great. Which, how do you feel about this, Al? You dropped him two weeks ago.

You feel good? What did I say when I dropped him? That he's going to have a real career resurgence. Somebody can pick him up now because he's about to blow up. Who's your quarterback now? Jordan Love at the moment. Oh, that worked out. Yeah, it did. Jane Daniels, Jared Goff, James Winston, Jordan Love. We need good quarterback play. It's kind of fun to dunk on the guy who was so great last year. You're like, well, I was just, we need Drake May to be good. So this was a few. You wipe the sweat off your forehead.

Thank goodness. Mario Douglas had two touchdowns from him. You know, you don't have Mack Hollins right now. Dobbs didn't get it done. No, because my dude, Kyle Williams. AJ Brown, I think, will be so good in this offense. But we're still weeks away. They've got two games quick, I think, in the next like 10 days. And so he won't be part of either of those. He might be back after that, though. Yes, I agree. And I think the second half of the season will be good for him. That's a trade-for-target. Jane Daniels got it done with the rushing yard. He's 9-4-103.

Honestly, I didn't think he looked. I thought he looked okay as a passer. But I thought the rushing totals, man, if you get anything like that, that's my price picks line was 30 and a half. I tripled it. Mike and I were both like all the conversation. He's coming back. He's got a brace on the elbow. The doctors out there are saying it's not a matter of if, it's win.

He re-injures the elbow. Yeah. And then they came out and said, we're going to protect him and he's not going to run the football. So when you made that pick, Mike and I were like, thank you. Spoiler alert. And we were super wrong. When Jackson Dart comes back, he's going to run. Yeah. Because it's just that's, that is who they are. Jared Goff had 271 and three with a rushing touchdown. Jason started the week. And he could have had as many as he wanted. Yeah. The Cardinals are so unbelievably bad at the events. I was thinking about this on the drive-in. How great.

would it be if you spent your entire life you are an offensive player it doesn't matter if you're a skill position you're an offensive lineman whatever and you get to the NFL and then you get to have a day against the cardinals you just get to play against like a jvd yeah i was like that'd be so fun i get to play against a jvd team that can't possibly stop anything we do they have two good defensive players and one went down in this game buddh al reese oh

Oh, no, we got a running back. That's right. Okay. That's right. That's who we drag. We can't talk about the Cardinals anymore. Winston was hilarious because Winston played maybe the worst first half of football I've ever seen. I mean, just abysmal. And then he ends up with 3.26 and 3 and 3 targets Malik neighbors 20 times. So amazing. Jordan Love was pretty much perfect. Unbelievable. And I'll tell you what. I said this to Mike watching this game. I feel like the few. Yeah, they figured it out. The rest of the league needs to watch this game and be like,

Oh, okay. So just throw it deep every single play against the Bears. Like the Bears' defense has looked really good the last couple weeks. Apparently they found their weakness. And that's all he did. It was just I kept joking after bomb after bomb. Even Tucker Crafts had like a 49-yard catch. I kept joking. This was beforehand. So the joke kept working. Great watching the game. I was like every time Jordan Love drops back, he just goes, hey, check this out.

And then he just kept doing it. Watch this. Hey, check this out. Boom, all the way down. I mean, it was just like, and they didn't always work. But it was like, I feel like he had 10 shots in a row. There was like, hey, check this out, 40 yards. It's not that different from what Joe Burrow has success doing, which is if you have really good wide receivers like Christian Watson and Matthew Golden, who high point balls and come down with contested catches, like T. Higgins and Jamar Chase, if you chuck it.

It works out a lot. What do you get? They don't have a lot of defenders down there. They've got one or two defenders down there. It just, it was a great game. It was awesome. He looks so good. And I will say this. They're Marshall and Lloyd. Yeah. Mike and I were like, you got to think about it. Boom stick to someone. Their offensive line.

looked significantly better, which coincides what they made transactions, right? They added more people off the street to their roster. They have tried to revamp this offensive line. It looked better. I think the passing game for Jordan Love and the Packers is, it's getting me hot and bothered rest of the season. And look, it's going to be a slow burn, but Tucker Kraft's going to get better and better and better. He had a big play down the field finally. But coming back from an injury, man, you need some weeks. It was fun. It was fun to watch. We get Dallas.

Detroit, Carolina. Hey, check this out. That's all he's going to do next week. It's going to be so much fun. Oh, Jack, check this out. Oh, man. Look. It's going to finish with like a 22 yards per attempt. Yeah. He was so good. Jacoby Brissette, if you are a quarterback facing the lions.

He was so bad. He was so bad. Oh, yeah. Oh, he was so bad. Cardinals, well, this is the problem I have with the Michael Wilson, McBride, any of that. Carsonback will become the starter at something. Yeah, you will. And Carsonback might be a better quarterback at some point than Berset, but he's not going to throw for as many yards, touchdowns. They're going to do something different. How slash why would they not start him next week?

Well, the quote from LaFleur. And I don't understand. What is the downside at this point? Nothing. You get to figure out if you have a quarterback. The season is toast. No. So here. It's toast. They're lying to themselves if they're like, we're going to battle back in the NFC West? The actual truth is you have a first time brand new head coach. His entire world is trying to win. He is not playing for a.

future of a Cardinals franchise three years from now. Yes, he is. Well, of course he got a huge deal. No, no, no. I'm not saying he's he doesn't care about the Cardinals three years from now. He is, he wants to win. He is disgusted with how they're playing. His goal is to win right now. And at the podium, what he talked about was he said, I have too many things to fix to worry, like Jacoby Brissette.

isn't one of them. He's got to fix a defense. He's got to fix a defense. He's got to fix so many other things. Yeah, he does. But he thinks Jacoby Berset is not the problem. He is. He is part of it. Everything is the problem. Yeah, I know. But look, play your quarterbacks against the Lions. That's the headline here. Berset, QB6, Price Young was QB5 against him. Gino was QB3. He hasn't looked like a QB3 against anybody else. Josh Allen was QB1. Chuck was QB4. Play against the Lions. That's Stafford, Knicks, Dak, the next three weeks. I'm not playing Bo Knicks. Oh, I will.

I will absolutely. Oh, sorry, that's the Cardinal schedule. Oh, yeah. Formix does play against him in two weeks. Okay. Right. Rogers. Oh, look at Rogers in the studs. Three weeks in a row with 22 fantasy points. He only did that three times all of last year. Trevor Lawrence. Only because of his stats, though, Amy. Only due to his stats. Only the outcome of the stats. Okay. That's a good point, Mike. When you get the ball around the goal line, it can throw a goal line touchdown and you can throw a screen for 80 yards, you're really good. Wait.

Did you just say throwing a goal line touchdown as a bad thing? I'm just saying he. This is so weird, Jason. I'm going to go rewatch the tape. I'm going to go rewatch the tape. I mean, if you three weeks, three touchdowns a week playing good football, Malik Willis ends up on this list because the Bengals decided to give up two garbage time touchdowns and a bunch of rushing yards to him at the end of the game. But they're, they were also a great defense to play. Oh, dude. Target Miami every week. We were looking at the Cardinal schedule talking about.

target the lions. Now I'm looking at the lion schedule. So we can actually know who they're playing? Yeah. They go to buy, unfortunately. But then after that, it's the Packers. You tell me, Jordan Love gets DAC and then the check this out. Yeah. That's awesome. The running backs, he deserves a break, doesn't he? Jamir Gibbs. And he got stuffed on the goal line twice and lost the touchdown. 35.2 fantasy points. They go to buy. He is unstoppable. He did say he wants to.

He has the most touchdowns before 25 years old in NFL history. He says he wants to break the LT's record. The LT 32 touchdown record. I personally want him to break that. You find that funny back there, Al? Yeah. Bejohn Robinson. I just love the guy. Yeah, he's just a fan of the man. For the dude. Bejon Robinson is the best running back in the NFL. I believe he looks outstanding and unfathomably good. He's been so good for fantasy football. And.

It's not close between him and Gibbs. It's not even like Gibbs for fantasy is doing what LT, like for those of us old enough who've played fantasy long enough to remember the LT year or years. That's where we are with Gibbs. Jalen Warren was number two on the week, was unstoppable. Bucky Irving, number three on the week. Nice. Love that guy. Derek Henry.

20 fantasy points. Snuck in with their receiving touchdown. And Braylon Allen with 18.1, a late touchdown, brought it over the top. Like I said, the Lions go into the by week. Jalen Warren, though, has turned into a monster. And there's no, you know, I know RICO got hurt. We are now at the point of confidence with Aaron Rogers, loving Jailen Warren. He's been slippery. He never goes down on the first touch. Which the RICO news, as they said, he was very close to playing this week.

so I would fully expect him back. It should just stay the Jalen Warren show. It should. It should. Six for 87. It's not going to. I don't know that it will. No, I don't think it's going to. I think that the coach is going to want to involve Rico. I completely am on the other side of the one. I told Mike, I don't know, three quarters the way through. Obviously, we watched very different games here for the Steelers, but I was just like. Jason did. I did. You had a filter on his TV. I, uh,

I was like, Jalen Warren feels like that guy where everyone who has him in leagues, every year this happens, like, you're undefeated or you're one of the best in the leagues, you're one of the highest scoring teams. Because you had an unexpected fantasy superstar, and you're going to make the playoffs, and then he's not going to be what he was now at that point. Look, I agree the fact he won't get 97% of snaps. That's not going to happen. I mean, he should. He's so doggone good. He will get.

He'll get the majority. That 80-yard reception is like, oh, that's cool for Aaron Rogers. He also had 100-1 rushing it. It's like every four or five plays, he just no one tackles him and he breaks out of the pile and he's so good. But I do think when. Slippery fish. Like, I guess my point is if and, you know, obviously, Andy, you would be on the other side based on how good he's been. And if he gets the work, you should be on the other side. To me, I feel like he's a trade high candidate. If I can.

actually maximize. If I can get someone who's like, I need a superstar running back because that's what he has looked like recently, I would try to capitalize. I think part of it is the fact that like if Rico had been playing well in his two games, I would be of a different opinion. He was like two a carry. I mean, he was garbage. But wasn't Warren bad during the time that like. Yeah, neither of them was getting it done. Aaron Jones, Ramandre, CMC, Swift, Marshaun Lloyd with the two touchdowns. If you could.

Unload March on Lloyd on two touchdowns. That could be a moment for you. The CMC utilization was obnoxious. He pretty much like. It was very low. Almost all his work, all his fantasy production was first half. And like he was 11, he had 11 carries. He had a rushing touchdown. Then he had three targets. And this was a team that they were, they were losing wide receivers on basically every single play. And McCaffrey only got three targets. It was, it was really weird. Yeah, yeah, it was. DeAndre Swift.

Only 43 rushing yards. They were not in a position to run the football at all. They were down and down big. We'll take another quick break and jump into whiteouts.
