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

figure out what the Bears office is. Any week now. Just give me a couple more weeks together the data. Waddle, five targets, two for 19. I just, I would try to trade Waddle because you don't know when. You can play him. Yeah. That's the problem. And he's a big name. So you might sell somebody on him. Michael Wilson, seven targets, four for 30. That one made no sense. There were some comments about now you'll get to enjoy being the sacrificial X in the offense. But it was really just, you know, he had seven targets.

I think he's going to be great. Jacoby Brissette's not good. I think Michael Wilson, for the most part, will be great because the targets will be there. But the fact that this is a possibility for Berset to look that bad, for the Cardinals to be that bad. Next two weeks. Rams and the Denver Broncos. I mean, those are not good. Not easy. But after that? After that you get Dallas, but that's two weeks, man. Yeah. D.K. McCaff, three catches for 12 yards and also fumbled. I watched two of the catches. You know what they were?

Two catches were back to back place, screen right, screen left. So line of scrimmage passes. They just wanted to remind him. Other than that, he had one catch for like five yards and a fumble. You'd think that losing, you know, Roman Wilson and Michael Pittman would benefit him, but trust levels are low. Josh Downs, it's not been happening. It sucks. Jeremy Bernard.

I didn't realize. He had a great game. I knew he had a good game, but 80 yards. He led the team in targets. Yeah, he had a great game. And he's a big pickup. Oh, no. I didn't even see the stat line for Carnal Tate. Yeah, it was terrible. I mean, Cam Ward is watching the press conference of Cam Ward afterwards, the guys asking the questions, they're a little bit rude, asking him, you know, so are you used to losing now, you know, whatever.

You don't have to be mean like that. If you're going to be mean, just be mean. You don't got to veil this thing. Come to the to the press conference. You suck. How do you respond? Exactly, Mike. I want someone to do that. Cam Ward, I think you suck. What do you think? Like, just go ahead and say the truth. But also, he is. He stinks. Carnell Tate had a pretty open touchdown that he was missed on.

on one of his five targets, but six yards on a house. There's a reliable, unreliable scale here. And right now, Parnell Tate, Jalen Waddle, any of the wider seers for the Bears, D.K. Matt Gap, they're all in the unreliable category. Dobbs apparently is, too, with one catch in a game. Dobbs got a cool touchdown. I watched it. Number 87 for the Packers. Yeah. It's like, I refuse to believe that's not Dobbs.

Ladd-McConkie never played. But he was active. What was funny is we heard and I reported he was going to be inactive. Absolutely. Because he was. Thank you. All the talk was he was not going to be active. And then it turns out they had to have like enough players active because they have lost so many. I mean, we make a lot about the 49ers losing players because they've got a substation. But.

The chargers have been, their offense, they have nobody left. Their offensive line, their wide receiver core. I mean, Trey Harris was the wide receiver one. He got hurt. Yeah, he was. And Trey Harris was their wide receiver three. Now you're out of options. They are doomed. They are doomed. Like, doomed is the, it's an appropriate word for them, doomed. And they're really doomed because they have Justin Herbert. They're going to have a pick where you could maybe look at replacing them. And they're going to be like, no way. Well, I don't think it's, I mean, oh, I almost said the line.

the famous Herbert line that I don't think it's his problem. But when you don't have, you don't have your center, you don't have both your tackles, you don't have five wide receivers, you don't have your top two tight ends. Yeah, it's not really Herbert's fault alone. It's everything. It is. And he doesn't need to be replaced. No, he doesn't. If Jeremiah Smith joins that team and a new head coach and a new offensive coordinator, you can believe again. It's so tough because he is not a bad quarterback. And it,

feels so stupid. Some of those interceptions are pretty bad. For sure. It's a snowball effect right now where he is playing terrible football trying to help a team that has no hope that is doomed. I saw a comment from Charge, our good friend of the show, Paul Chartian. He was like, how much money would the Chargers have to pay for the Vikings to take the rest of this contract?

I would be 1,000% in. If you said Justin Herbert to the Minnesota Vikings, that's it, yeah. That would change everything. They'd win the Super Bowl. Well, or the curse travels because he is a cursed man. Yeah. Speaking of curses, Colson Loveland, two for 19. Target share by week. Not good. No. Is this just going to be a whiff?

Or are we waiting for this Caleb return to save us? I am very not happy. That is the wrong word. But just like I accepted. This is a massive loss. I thought Loveland was going to be it. Very, very wrong. By the end of the year, we could have some sort of redemption tour. But it's like, I'm not, I'm not tripling down saying, go trade for him. Like, it's going to happen. There's players that are still.

bad right now that i would i'd be like nope i'm still in i'm still in the question that everybody who drafted him has is like do i drop him do i do i do can i drop him it's so hard to imagine i personally would not drop him but i'm not playing him because there's no caleb yeah when we had caleb it feels like a lot of excuses but it's it's it's tough if you're if you're the if you are the manager of colson loveland

I mean, Elijah Higgins has more points than him on the year. Nate Adkins. What about that guy that you couldn't pronounce for the Cardinals? That might be more too. Probably. George Kittle, Fanon, and Joanne Johnson, Johnson with the Minnesota game. Fanon, that one's unfortunate. And then Kittle just had a down game. Fanon was, like.

That was a real sloppy, rainy game, the Jets Browns. Yeah, and Kittle came out right before the game that he was very ill. We had another member of the armed services.

Oh, major sickness. Major sickness showed up. Al said he's in the same battalion as major soreness. Yeah. General soreness. Oh, General soreness. That's right. Don't, shoot. Was it major sickness or general sickness? I don't remember the sickness. No, it was major sickness. Yeah. So we got general soreness and major sickness. I haven't been in the armed forces. Is majors or generals? No, general is at the top. No, I know. I can't wait to find out about lieutenant. Oh, yeah. Lieutenant ankle or something? Hmm.

Yeah, try again. It's got to be more generic. Yeah, I mean, this is a whole, this is a whole order of operations here. But that is going to do it for today's episode, waiver show tomorrow. Tomorrow will be the first day I do a show as somebody that's hit a whole in one, which is like, it's just exciting to think about what my attitude will be. You are going to be on this microphone. Here's the intro. Are you ready? Welcome in. You're going to be so sore.

from two hours of hitting before I hit my whole one. I don't know why we get sore for that. We got a fantasy draft redo on Wednesday. That'll be fun. And we'll preview the Thursday night game then. But waiver day tomorrow. It's a big day. If you want custom waivers for your league, specific to each and every waiver wire, that's part of the ultimate dashboard at Jointhefoot.com.
