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

pre they didn't know that was going to happen it seemed like he was benched or injured or something i kept asking mike i was searching social media we were searching and searching he didn't play forever and and then you see his uh john dagle posting the rb share since nausea was active i haven't seen it's gone from 70% to 66 to 57 so it's gone down every week it was wild i i when he got back in the game i was like oh no

Because the hope was he was injured because otherwise they were choosing to not use him. He basically won them the game, then lost them the game. Yeah. Because the fumble is going to come back. I mean, that is not a good look. Camara was terrible. Amarine Hampton, 14 for 33. The highlight play of that game was Kamani Vidal. Hampton was actually bad. He was bad. The utilization is worse. I can.

You can point to the 14 carries and be like, okay. This is his worst game of the year statistically. He led the team in rushing attempts by a good margin, but snap-wise, utilization-wise, he is, I mean, I said it last week. This is not going, this three-way timeshare is not going away at least while McDaniel still has a job. Well, it's leading them to lots of, oh, wait.

Yeah, it's not working. It's funny, though, because you can't really, I was going to say you can't really argue for Hampton on a 14 for 33 week. No. R.J. Harvey, Mike. Oh, you finally got in. I abandoned my boy. You did. I abandoned my son. Dobbins. This is the first time in. 86. I hate them. This is why you hate the Broncos. You have been so.

I abandoned my boys. So pro Dobbins. My boy. And no one on play on. I hate RJ Harvey. Has been more anti RJ Harvey than you. And I waved the flag. I said, fine. This is what we're doing. And he got one target. And he went from 10 targets to one target. I'm done with this. Seven.

Rushing attempts to three runs. I will support J.K. Dobbins in the shadows. Yes. Just believe I always love him. Chris Olavay, four for 46. This was a shock problem. It was a Minnesota problem. Yeah, it was a Minnesota problem. O'Donzee and Burden, both on the Dodds list. They couldn't figure out the quarterback position this week. Yeah. Be agent. Seems like we're going to finally 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 Resett'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 Brissette 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 Linus 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 it was. 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. That's fantastic.

Oh, no. I didn't even see the stateline for Carnel 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 them, 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 in to the to the.

to the press conference to be like, 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, Carnell Tate, Jalen Waddle.

any of the wider seers for the Bears, D.K. Matt Cap, 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 McConkey never play.

But he was active. What was funny is we heard and I reported he was going to be an active. 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. 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 offense coordinator, you can believe again. It's so tough because he is not a bad quarterback. And it,

feels so stupid constantly saying pretty bad it's a 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 uh i saw um i saw a comment from uh charge our good friend of the show paul charting 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. Unless. 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 saying, 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, generals 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? Oh, 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.
