A listener confirms snow on the ground in Vermont as of November 1, officially opening Yeti season. The hosts explain for newcomers that multiple years of scientific method have established the Snow Model: when Vermont gets snow, Derrick Henry goes bananas. The model is explicitly called trademarked, and Mike is later identified as very pro-Yeti.
The hosts declare Jason's joking lifetime baseball fandom over after Arizona loses the World Series. Jason says Arizona fans have now lost a Super Bowl, NBA Finals, and World Series within 15 years; he tries to comfort himself with the Rangers' first title and happy opposing children, but it does not help his weeping son.
Immediately after waivers, an unnamed host learns that his League of Record opponent spent $3 on Will Levis to start against him that night because both regular quarterbacks are on bye. The pickup makes the host unexpectedly root against Levis and declare himself super anti-Banana Rama, even while Mike remains very pro-Yeti for Derrick Henry in the same game.
Dotson's constant routes but disappearing production become a season-long movie role. He is in almost every scene yet so good in background costume that no one notices him; whenever he tries to speak, the film cuts to somebody else, and sometimes he fumbles the line.
Michael Thomas is imagined promising exactly eight or nine points inside his seven-to-eleven-point window. The hosts try to turn that floor and ceiling into a reliable restaurant, then a half-basement apartment with a low roof, but admit the comparison is stretched and everyone in the room is lost. The explanation finally becomes simply 'the ceiling is low' while Andy reports that Deucer's Alley looks desperate not to be asked for help; the tangent then detours into whether Phoenix counts as a big city.
Mac Jones's desperate Start of the Week requires Titanium Underpants for protection. The next running-back pick, Zach Moss, is judged so safe that the hosts say titanium and steel are no longer needed; he may need no underpants at all, then no pants, and can simply Donald Duck it.
Jason's ironclad, locked-and-loaded, 100-percent-guaranteed Boom Boom Kicker continues from last week's trial: a trick judge and magistrate jail him, inmates fling poopie, and Jason becomes Bane to shatter Blake Grupe's back. The hosts celebrate poopie/Grupe while noting Jason also rhymed man with man; research then reveals the 156-pound Grupe is the NFL's lightest kicker in 35 years and therefore an easy back to break.
Mike announces his first-place Fantasy Faceoff result while Jason says he lost and asks whether he will get mummy face tomorrow. The hosts clarify that doing it right means duct tape over the mouth and rename the look the hostage. They recall that Mike's prior live mummy wrap left his nose ajar for three or four days before it came back and was set. Direct video confirms Mike delivers the cold-open facial-hair apology, but the dialogue only suggests rather than proves that it shares the wrap's cause.
A listener photograph confirms snow on the ground in Vermont as of November 1, so Yeti season is declared open under the trademarked Derrick Henry Snow Model: through the scientific method, Vermont snow means Henry goes bananas. The celebration collides with the League of Record, where an unnamed host's opponent spends $3 on Will Levis to start that night, unexpectedly forcing the host to become anti-Banana Rama while Mike remains emphatically pro-Yeti. Before football, Jason's supposed lifetime baseball fandom ends with Arizona's World Series loss; he says the state's fans have now lost a Super Bowl, NBA Finals, and World Series within 15 years, and even remembering happy Rangers children cannot comfort his weeping son. During the matchup breakdown, Demario Douglas receives the Dirty Pop cue, while Jahan Dotson becomes a brilliant background actor who appears in every scene but disappears in costume and has the film cut away whenever he tries to speak. Michael Thomas's reliable seven-to-eleven-point window turns into a failed low-ceiling basement-restaurant analogy; the whole room gets lost, and Andy says Deucer's Alley looks desperate not to be consulted before Phoenix's fifth-largest-city status is debated. The Start of the Week confidence scale gives risky Mac Jones Titanium Underpants, then declares Zach Moss safe enough to need neither underpants nor pants—he can Donald Duck it. Jason's ironclad Boom Boom Kicker serial continues from a trick trial into jail, where inmates fling poopie and Jason breaks Saints kicker Blake Grupe's back like Bane; the rhyme audit catches both poopie/Grupe and man/man, and live research notes Grupe is the NFL's lightest kicker in 35 years at 156 pounds. Mike wins Fantasy Faceoff while Jason loses and asks whether he will receive mummy face; the punishment is reframed as duct tape over the mouth called the hostage. The prior live mummy wrap had left Mike's nose ajar for three or four days, and direct video confirms that Mike opens this episode by apologizing that his facial hair has not returned, although the dialogue does not explicitly prove the same cause. The close thanks Deucer's Alley, Judge, and Al the Rapscallion, while saying Al must be dressed up next year because the people were mad.
Please? Yeah, it's tough. And in this matchup, again, when the quarterback position isn't, you know, stable, you start to look at Darrell Henderson, right? I took a look at his numbers earlier this morning. And, you know, he's not running well. He's sharing time. He has gotten into the end zone. He's caught some passes. My confidence level on him is not very high with Brett Rippin at quarterback. I mean, 2.6 a carry last week, 3.4 the week before, and the defense is going to be able to stop that. Meanwhile, I don't know the situation of the, like, was the box heavy or not, I don't have those numbers in front of me, just the raw numbers. But Henderson, since, you know, the opportunity, he's running at 3.1, he's the one getting far more carries, though. You know, we're at 30 attempts. And then the past two weeks, Royce Freeman is at, uh,
21, but Royce Freeman is running at 5.2. Like, how, how much time does Daryl Henderson keep getting to be the lead ball carrier when Royce Freeman is on, is statistically playing better? Now, there's stuff that the coaches look for that we don't in fantasy football, but like Royce Freeman out snapped him last week. He had more snaps? Yeah, his snap. He had 53% of snaps compared to 47 for Daryl Henderson. I think the difference here is that Daryl Henderson has been a little bit more involved in running routes and in the passing game. We don't know if Brett Rippian is there if he's going to pass to the running backs a lot or not. Stafford utilizes them in that way. But I think you've got two different things. One, if you're down and you're running more routes, then you go.
towards the Henderson route on the goal line. We did see Royce Freeman brought in there. Roy's a beef boy. Yeah, he's a beef boy. And so maybe touchdowns lean more towards Freeman. Receptions lean more towards Henderson. Touchdowns I don't think are going to be a ton to go around in this game. So I lean towards Henderson in this match. Yeah, I'm definitely on the Henderson side of who I'd start. It's just a matter of it just makes me sad because I think the ceiling, like you talked about with Addison, I think the ceiling gets. kind of taken away for Darrell Henderson unless you lock into a couple of touchdowns. Nice thing is the Packers are not good at stopping the run. They are 26th right now in schedule adjusted, fancy points given up to running backs. Jordan Love, Aaron Jones, AJ Dylan, Christian Watson, Romeo Dobbs. You could do better. You could do worse. You could do worse. Yeah.
Romeo Dobbs got back into the end zone the last couple weeks. He's a touchdown machine. Yeah, but they're just. Oh, the yard is just not there. He's just catching. This is like, uh, it's, it's, give me Rashi Rice, that's for sure. It's the ghost of, uh, James Jones. Yeah. It, it's nothing but touchdowns. It's been rough. Like Jordan lover will Levis. I think it's a fair conversation. Oh, man, that is a fair conversation. I think. Because the Rams have been pretty good. Yeah, I think you go Will Levis over Jordan Love right now. Jordan Love has just looked like he don't have it. Yeah, yeah. And then Christian Watson, he ends up being one of the most disappointing busts in fantasy this year. Well, yeah, when you start the first month injured, you come back, you get excited, you still deal with some of the injury, and you're not getting it done. He had eight targets last week. He's playing 80 plus percent of the snaps.
And it just hasn't resulted in actual yardage and touchdowns. 27 yards two weeks ago, 33 yards this last week. I still think you can't actually put him in a lineup. I'm not, I'm not like too scared to do that because he is the type of player. One touch. Exactly. You just need one big touch from a guy. He's on the field enough, getting enough targets. Like the behind the scenes numbers are there. So, and his athleticism is there. You know, I'm not like, oh, you got to, you know, throw him in your lineup for sure. But Hollywood with Clayton, Tune or Christian Watson in this matchup. I think I go Christian Watson just because of how good the Browns defense is going to be in. Are you playing Hollywood in your league of record team? I probably am. We have like eight players to decide four spots. And it's, oh, it's not easy. Have you seen that Sleepers updated their matchup pages now to include like,
They show your average points per week, and they show your starts that accuracy. Ooh, no. And so I have, yeah. On the actual, like, slides, when you look at the matchups, it'll be like, you know, 83.5% starts at accuracy, averaging 117 points a week. Their maximum would have been 139 a week had you played it right. That's fun. That's kind of cool. Where are we with Aaron Jones? We are not in a good place. Okay. Snaps, I mean, we've only... had him back for two weeks. The snaps did go up from 36 to 51%. We haven't had them back. The opportunity, I'm saying, no, I know, but we got more, but the opportunities actually went from 13 to 12. He five targets in each of the last two games. So we, that's, that's a nice PPR floor. But it is, it's a full time share with him and AJ Dillon right now. And LaFlewer's quote is, have to be smart with Jones because he isn't 100% by any stretch.
Yeah, and he doesn't look 100%. That being said, I mean, he played more snaps this last week, more snap percentage than he did in week one when he was the running back one. So you don't expect Aaron Jones to be a 70% snap player. He's going to be in a timeshare. You just are waiting for him to get his juice back to get healthy. This matchup isn't good. I certainly, I mean, if I had Darrell Henderson or Aaron Jones, there's no question. I'm playing Aaron Jones. but you are waiting. It doesn't look good right now. The commanders at 3 and 5 take on the 2 and 6 Patriots. The Drafking Sportsbook line, New England minus 3, overrunners 40 and a half. Sam Howell? Like I said, in yesterday's midseason review episode, 4,500 yards, 28 passing touchdowns. That's the pace, along with taking a sack, every play. Mack Jones, you know, you get an opportunity with Mack Jones here. He's been better.
where, you know, I like New England in this game. They're favored. The defense has been, had a couple of their best linemen sent off. And, you know, they're giving up a ton of fantasy points. Washington is to quarterbacks and wide receivers. On paper, there's an opportunity. Now, one of the problems with Mac Jones and starting Mac Jones is that he doesn't have elite weapons. Kendrick Bourne was arguably the best when he had. Tort his ACL last week, was getting into the end zone regularly. You get your shot. Demario Douglas gets his chance here in this game. Juju's back, still underutilized. That's my worry. We're going to say, hey, this is an amazing opportunity, but no one can take advantage of it. That's my concern. And I would echo all your concerns. Totally get it. But this particular week is, it's kind of this.
Yeah, Will Lavis has Hopkins for tonight, but he's still, I mean, he's a rookie making his second start against Mike Tomlin. And even though the matchup, like the Steelers haven't been great against quarterbacks and wide receivers, my point being, you can go across the entire NFL and basically all the options that aren't, you know, those locked in top six quarters we talked about, you can poke holes in every single one of them. And the thing that stands out here is over the last six weeks, Washington, dead last against fantasy quarterbacks, and sweat and young are no longer on that defensive line. Yeah, it is a pretty good matchup. I'm not in love with Mack Jones, but I am kind of in love with Pop Douglas. Dirty Pop. Dirty Pop. Demario Douglas has been good. He has a 25% targets per out run on the season, and now,
is in a matchup that should be very exploitable in a time where his snaps should be the highest this week that they've been on the entire season. So if you're in a half PPR, full PPR, I'm fine playing, playing pop. Okay. Yeah, I mean, the matchup's great. You mentioned it. Ramandre, very disappointing last week. This week, I feel like Ramondre and Zika are both in play. I agree. I think you have a game of profiles as a chance that New England's ahead. They're at home. The defense has been pretty good statistically. I know there's a lot of weapons on the other side that we'd love to see get involved fantasy-wise with Dawson and McLaurin and Logan Thomas and such. But I do think that Zika and Remandre will have opportunities. Yeah, yeah, I agree. I think you could start either one of them. And even though the Manders rushing defense has been.
middle of the pack, they got rid of two of their defensive lines. So TBD. Are you chasing the last two weeks of Jehan Dodson? I think this is going to be one of your bigger start-sit decisions, maybe even people deciding between two guys they picked up this past waivers, which would be Dodson and Demerio Douglas. Yeah, I think you could start either. I would rather start Demerio Douglas. If I had both on my roster, Pop would be in my lineup. Interesting. Okay. It's so hard because like Dodson's story, the movie this year, you know, he's in almost every scene. Yeah. You know, he's always on the field. You just don't know it. He's that good of an actor. He's in the background and costume. And like every time he goes to talk, the scene cuts away. It cuts to another. Yeah. And sometimes he fumbles the line. But yeah, I mean, I think both guys will probably be out there quite a bit this week. Assuming.
that Curtis Samuel will be out, which I don't know if we have that information just yet. But if he is out, I'm going to play Dotson. I know that Dotson's good. DiMari Douglas has an incredible opportunity, but he's a, you know, six-round rookie. I'll take the, I'll take the guy who I've seen him. And I'm going to throw Jameson Crotter's name out there because last week, Jameson Crotter scored seven touch, seven receptions. And when you have, the offensive line situation, there's a reason like Curtis Samuel was producing. Right. And there's a reason James and Crowder did at Unlimited Snaps last week. And it's because Sam Hal is running for his life. And there's a reason John Dodson's situations don't develop down the field. It's because he's running for his life. There's a reason Logan Thomas is getting targets. It's because the underneath stuff is what you have to let the ball go to when you are almost on your back. So.
I'm just saying I don't think I'd be shocked if Jameson Crider had a productive game without Curtis Samuel. Gotcha. Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. And, you know, I think if you're in a redraft league, harder to throw him in your lineup. If you're getting value in draft kings or something, that makes sense. He's probably 3,200. I really like Logan Thomas for all the reasons. You just laid out. You expect him to have seven plus targets in this matchup. And, you know, especially if Curtis Samuel's out. Yep, absolutely. Anybody else from this matchup that you would like to discuss Brian Robinson? Yeah, you've got to discuss Brian Robinson. It's not a, it's a middle-of-the-road matchup for the Manders. Robinson or Henderson? Henderson. I'm going to take the matchup. Robinson or Najee tonight? Robinson. I have a strict.
policy there. Yeah, this question's not for Andy. Yeah. Well, I still answered as Andy would have. Yes, you did. You're welcome aboard. This policy really easy to adopt, easy to execute. Been very successful. Almost works all the time. I mean. I think in a real good plus matchup, I'm still fine with Najee. We saw that, was it last week or? Two weeks. Two weeks. Yeah, exactly. Against the Titans, not so much. uh chicago bears two and six take on the four and four new orleans saints somehow it feels like every matchup is between losing teams which isn't it shouldn't be possible no but the bears two and six saints four and four that's kind of the peak record wise today uh draft king sports book line new orleans minus eight and a half the overrunners 41 um the saints are running a ton of plays per game bears games lately you know they're hitting the over
Maybe this game will be more exciting. Tyson, Bajent will start. Bilbo. Yeah, Bilbo will get the opportunity. And Derek Carr, somehow, somewhat. Four consecutive top 15 games. He's an angry car now. Which only Jalen Hertz, Josh Allen and Carr have done. And it makes... Wait, what? It makes sense because if you really think about... What he has at his disposal, Camara. Over the last four weeks. Okay. This is what I'm saying. Camara. Alave. Michael Thomas, Rashid Shahid is a deep threat that generally comes down with one every single game. And if it's more than one, it's a great game. And then even like, you know, Taysome Hell's involvement, Juan Johnson coming back, like on paper, like I'm not shocked New Orleans eight and a half point favorites in this one. They should.
There's no way Chicago can keep up offensively. I think it'll be a repeat of what we saw with the Chargers and the Bears last week. I would agree. And they're not able to run the ball very well. Everything to Camara has been a pass. And so that goes to Derek Carr's stats. Now, against the Chicago Bears, you pretty much want to target them. You want to put those players in. So obviously, Camara's in. Obviously, Oliva's in. I think Michael Thomas. should be fine. He's been a first read target pretty much the entire first half of every game, it seems. Oh, man, I don't. Unless I was a heavy favorite, I don't want to play him. You don't want to play Michael Thomas? No, I don't. Because the continuity with Rashid Jihad has been there, getting Juan Johnson back, Camer's involvement in the passing game. Like, I feel like Michael Thomas is sitting here and he's like, I will give you between eight and nine points. Yeah.
And he's just like, and I promise you I will get you it. So if I'm a favorite, I love it. But if I'm not, like I'd play to Mario Douglas for the upside. Sure. If I was in a neutral or negative matchup, that's just my opinion. Yeah, I mean, it's funny because, you know, he hasn't scored fewer than seven fantasy points all year. Yeah, perfect. Like seven is a decent, you know, it's. That's not something you're looking for. That's a sturdy floor. Yeah, to say that we're going into week nine and he hasn't scored at wide receiver fewer than seven fantasy points. Also, he hasn't scored more than 11 fantasy points. He is, he's got his window. And if you want right around 10 points, what are those? Right around 9 points. This is the restaurant that has the meal that's just like it's, it's, it's the one you get and it's probably okay.
But you know what you're getting. Because we're not big city folk here in Phoenix, Arizona, very suburban. In the cities where it's like the sub-basement, there's the one, or like there's apartment buildings, but you have to go down, but the roof is very, very low on you. These are always, I see them when they're renovating on the. You're saying when you take the stairs down to get into that apartment? Because it's a basement, but it's not a full basement. It's like half a basement. If you want to make a real stretched, like kind of analogy, you really got to know what you're talking about. I was trying to throw it out because we have a lot of people in this room. A lot of people in this room that don't know what you're talking about. Well, that's because we are all real lost. Yeah. All right. It sounds pretty cool. Twitter will help me out here. Sounds pretty cool. There's a type of building that's not a basement.
But it's got a low ceiling. Is that what you're saying? Yep. So you're just saying that the ceiling is low. I see Ducers Alley desperate to not be talked to right now. So, yeah. And we're a pretty big city, Mike. We're the fifth largest city. Yeah, but we're suburbs. So Andy, asking for a friend. Yeah. Yeah. Asking for a friend. I am favored pretty heavily. If Will Levis goes out and puts up a stinker tonight. Do you think I should start Michael Thomas in my match? Well, it depends on your alternative. Who's your alternative? Oh, man. Hollywood? I would start him over Hollywood with tune. Yeah, that would be one of them. Because there's a chance Hollywood catches zero passes with tune. Puka. Yeah, I'd play Michael Thomas. Crazy. Michael Thomas is automatically putting seven points in your lineup. Josh Downs. No, I'd play Downs. Yeah, Downs is more explosive. Michael Thomas has lost all of that.
And he may never, he may never have had it. Like Michael Thomas was just, he had to have more than he has now. He had to. He was, he was a. That's true, but he never really, he never made his money on explosive plays. He made it on, on Drew Breeze and that kind of, he was Drew Breeze's Travis Kelsey. Yeah. Which was like, he knows where to be. And he misses Drew Breeze. And he says a little prayer wishing he'd come back every night. Is this the week Oliva breaks out? Maybe. We say every week. No, it might be. I, I'm actually really sad because I've tried to get him and the people are not down on him enough. That's, that's good. I expected them to get him cheap. Correct. Yes. Don't you know who you've been playing now? Just give him to my team. You're not veiling anything here. That is exactly right. I expected people to be more crestfallen. Yeah.
And they're not. And Olava is probably going to break out very soon. He's one of the few players that have the level of targets that he has with only one touchdown. And also his floor to speak to Michael Thomas's consistency, it's higher than you think. He only has one game with fewer than seven fantasy points. He's been okay. He's just not being a superstar because he's not getting the touchdowns. They will come. Rashid Shaheed is the inverse play of Michael Thomas. If you are a massive underdog, You are not playing Michael Thomas. You're playing Rashid Shaheed because he could have 174 yards and two touchdowns. That's my, I mean, that's my take on that, is underdog Shaheed, favorites, Thomas, Taysam Hill, yes, Derek Carr, yes, Camara, of course. And now we're onto the bears. Mike, I'm going to hand you this beautiful platter to talk about. Yeah, I mean, it is easy. It is you bench all running backs. Yep.
The, if you got the Deonta Foreman week, cherish it, hold it in high esteem. It's done. That was, it was 30. It is a mess for a bad team. They just fired the running back coach. You see that? Yes. I think it was a off the field situation, if I recall correctly. Gotcha. But Deonta Foreman, 32% of snaps, Rocheon 36. The combo of Travis Homer, wait, of. Who had the 27%? Darrington scored last week. Yes, he did. So he had 27%. So like that either Homer or Evans. But the point being, it's three players for a team that's not going to score a lot of points against a very strong defense. So abandon all hope. And then DJ Moore, I'm still going to play him. DJ Moore or Amari Cooper us the season? Cooper. Um, man.
Yeah. No, I changed. DJ Moore. DJ Moore or Hollywood rest of the season. Stop it. Stop making good questions that are hard. Yeah, I think Hollywood's going to be good when Kyler comes back. Do we have any updates on fields? I heard he's still week to week was the last IA. Week to week and we know pretty early on that he's not playing this week. So I would imagine it's going to keep going. I think we're going to be without him a little bit longer. And then Cole commit, I mean, what, 10 for 79 last week? I mean, that's, that's not too shabby. Yeah, Bejit was checking it down. That was against the Chargers, but I mean, the previous game of Bejant was a grand total of zero for zero.
for Cole. I would expect it to be far more like that this week. The zero for zero. The saints are good. The chargers are bad against tight ends. The saints are good against tight ends. I think he'll look elsewhere. DJ Moore should have around 10 fantasy points. And then you check out of the Bears. Seahawks are five and two taking on the six and two Ravens. Yay. Drafking sports look line. Baltimore minus six. The overrunners 44. Hatred for the Ravens is going to continue to flow. That's what people think. That's only because you say only negative things about the Raven. No, it's just because they're favored too often. They're six and two. They're favored too often by too much. What are you going to do? You've got to make your decision here. This six and two team is favored too much. I don't find anything wrong with what I'm doing. They were favored too much against Pittsburgh when I took Pittsburgh to cover and they did.
Last week against the Cardinals, they were heavily favored. Okay, by too many points. When you're saying they're favored too much, it sounds like we're predicting the Ravens are going to win the games too many times. This is not an almost upset. I'm not going to take it. I'm not going to take it. Six seems like a lot. But the Baltimore defense is really, really good. And they're at home. They control the game. The offense for Seattle has been weird on some levels. I mean, they are fighting and they added. you know, a huge piece to their, to their defense. Leonard Williams. Yeah, and so. Welcome aboard. Their run game will be better. Much better. Run stopping game. Yeah. And so, you know, is this a complicated game? Zay Flowers is, Zay Flowers is reaching the point now where I do not consider him an auto start at all. Like he's more like, I think he's just like purple Wondale. I mean, he's like maybe closer to that than he is a superstar.
Yeah, I would agree. Which I'm not, I don't hate the Ravens. I'm sorry. These are the numbers. They are utilizing Zayflowers in a very curious fashion. Yeah, I mean. And you don't play Bateman or Beckham because the targets aren't there. Yeah. Are you going to stay in the flames with Gus Edwards? Last week obviously was an advantage over the Arizona Cardinals. This week you've got. what on the season has been a middle of the pack run defense. But they add Leonard Williams. Gus Edwards is currently playing a little bit more and more, but still around 50% of snaps. 21 opportunities last week. Are you putting in? Favorite at home? I'm in. I'm going to live with that decision. Yeah. Kenneth Walker, 41% of snaps last week. It was our first disappointing game. Yep.
Well, follow him on the injury report, although it's hard to find someone you would play over Kenneth Walker, even if you're a little worried about each hurt. Charbonnet, is he in Flex consideration this week against a brutally difficult defense? I don't think so. I think there are better options at Flex at wide receiver than having Charbonnet in there. He looked great last week, 53 yards on only five carries. But only five carries. Like it's just not enough to do, you know, to be finished irrelevant. Nay on Charbonnet. Correct. Not if Walker's playing. Matt Calf Lockett, JSN. JSN, two touchdowns in two weeks, which. 16 targets over the last three games. Yeah, four last week, got into the end zone, but three for 36. It's a little bit, a little bit scary in this one. I think I'm trying to bench him. I am not starting him against the Baltimore Ravens. Their defense is great. They're on the road.
Too low a floor. And Gino Smith, we're going to sit them down. Yeah, I mean, we talked about the difficult other options. This week isn't a great week. So you might not be able to. Might not have someone you like more, but I would rather. Will Leavis or Gino Smith? Gino. Just making sure. In the last three games, three interceptions, two turnovers on downs inside the red zone. They cannot punch it in lately. Nice to see Lockett finally have a game last week. It seemed like we needed that to have any confidence that he exists. But nine targets, eight for 81, and a touchdown, that's a good week. And if they're playing from behind, then maybe you, even if they lose, maybe that's garbage time production, Metcalfe, full practice. He's not been good. I've seen him on benches. Some teams have like had to, you know, through waiver wire, you've picked up some other players. Are you playing D.K. MacG out? 14 targets? Yeah.
I'm playing Metcalf. Are you playing like, you know, over the Rashi's. No, no, I'm playing Metcalf. Obviously last week didn't turn out well, but 14 targets. He's D.K. Metcalf. He's practicing in full now. He is D.K. Metcalfe, but you realize his highest finish of the year is wide receiver 21. Yeah. Yeah. It's a disappointing, but that's not going to stay the same. Feels a little bit like Olav. Like both of those players are probably going to have. I mean, the first month, he was, it was still over 10 points a game. for in a half point scoring format, but that's, man, that's, that's, that stinks. Come on, Seattle. Welcome to starts of the week, presented by Purina Pro Plan. All right, it's a dirty week. Time to get into the starts. I am going to go with.
Dak Prescott on the road. Yes, please. Love it. Against Philadelphia. These are going to get progressively worse. Yes, they are. His last three games against Philly, he has not had fewer than three touchdowns. 347 and 3, 295 and 5, 238 and 3. And, you know, it's one of those games where you just trust that both the offenses are going to get into the end zone, despite the fact the defenses are good. And also, you know, Could be a struggle on the ground. So both quarterbacks are going to have to throw the ball. I'm excited about the potential this week. And I think they play again. Don't they play again soon? Or am I, did they already play them this year? Dallas and the Eagles? Yeah, I'm trying to. I think that. I might be misremembering. I thought they had a couple. No, in week 14. Okay, yeah. They've got a couple of these. That one will be at home, obviously. But I'm going to go to that.
