was one of the hottest wide receivers in football, in fantasy football. In DFS. For the last month, and he put up a zero. He got you on Halloween. I mean, he just, he, he, he, he, it was a trick. It wasn't a treat. You're like, yeah, we, thank you. We say trick or treat, not realizing that you are saying you can.

54:48 ↗

you can give me a trick. That's in this contract that I am offering you, you can try to trick me. Right. But when we say it. Like the razor blade in the apple. Yeah. But when we say it, you know, it's just, oh, that means, it only means treat. Right. Listen to the words that we're using here, people. Emmanuel Sanders did. Yes. He said, gotcha. Yeah. What do you do with Sanders? Do you worry about that? No, you just keep playing. And what about Cole Beasley? Because Cole Beasley was like,

55:17 ↗

This was a Beasley game, yes. I don't know. I'll look at it like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Sure. You play them all because you've got a great quarterback. You know that the office is going to score a lot of points. You're just going to have down weeks from, you know, all three guys being Diggs, Sanders, and Cole Beasley aren't going to have all three great games at the same time very often. Terry McLauran, man. What's going on in Washington makes me very sad.

55:47 ↗

DJ Moore, eight targets, four for 59. Perhaps Christian McCaffrey is back next week. That is a big, perhaps. We don't know. The last thing I saw from head coach, Matt Ja Rule was we're still not sure. It wasn't the, yes, we're getting our guy back this week. I've seen him. He's ready to go. So let's be hopeful. Let's be optimistic that McCaffrey will play, but it's very possible that he does not. The Broncos.

56:17 ↗

Against Washington, four targets, two for 40 for Cortland Sutton, Jerry Judy hot off of the injury, four targets, caught all four, only 39 yards. This was extremely disappointing that the Broncos weren't able to do more against a vastly inferior defense. Everybody sucked. Yeah. I mean, the Broncos won the game, but they did. They sure tried to lose at the end. Oh, yeah, they did.

56:46 ↗

Their play calling, the timeouts, the turnovers were, it was just unbelievably. It was entertaining, though. They were like, well, let's make it funny. And they did. But at least Noel fan had a bad game. So there's that. The only scores were both Melvin Gordon. So if you didn't have Melvin Gordon, then you were sad. Devante Smith had a bad game. Now, Alan Robinson, do we keep doing this to him? Do we keep saying that he pooped in the big boy pants?

57:16 ↗

I don't think he's wearing pants anymore, man. I mean, he can just drop it right on the grass. Because they are full. How many pants does he have taken? He's not allowed to buy any more pants. I mean, this, he, I don't know that he can be in this. You again? You again. At the pants store? You're not welcome here. You have pooped in too many pants, Mr. Robinson. That's right. So, yeah, I think we retire Alan Robinson from being able to poop in big boy pants. You drop them.

57:45 ↗

And get rid of him. He's got Pittsburgh this week, a buying the following week, Baltimore after that, like just. A brutal part of fantasy football is you know, you know that some of the players drafted in the first, second, and third. There will be guys who are a bust for fantasy football. A lot of time it's injury related, like things you couldn't see coming. And even if you projected.

58:14 ↗

Like it's Andy Dalton, it's Justin Fields. It's not the best situation here for Alan Robinson. Projecting what has actually taken place, it is, it is, it hurts inside. Yeah. I have, my soul is in pain for what is happening with Alan Robinson. Russell Gage didn't want Emmanuel Sanders to feel left out with a goose. So Russell Gage also had a goose. Kyle Pitts, Dalton Schultz, Tyler Higbee.

58:43 ↗

Noah Fants, Zach Gertz, Hunter Henry, Ricky Seals Jones. It was a bad. Did anyone have... On paper, it seemed like a good week for streaming tight ends because a lot of the matchups were there. You know, Higby's matchup was there. They pretty much all the streaming options suck, which is good news because you probably played one, but you probably played against one. Hopefully, you know, look, hopefully you played the Muth.

59:12 ↗

Yeah, so it's like, you know, the phrase, the all ships rise, you know, with the, with the, what is the opposite? Uh, the, is it just as easy as all ships go down with a drought? So it's rising tide raises all ships. Yeah. Lowering tide. I was hoping there was something better. Drain the, the, drain the ocean. I don't know. Uh, here's, here's how bad it was for tight end this week. Sorry for trying to set that one up. So.

59:42 ↗

Tid in one was T.J. Hawkins is a great game. Pat Friar Muth, the Muth was a great game. Then that's it. Yeah. You had Brevin Jordan, Jesse James, Dan Arnold with eight targets. Yeah, he was all right. Oh, he was ready on that one. That is what you get. I mean, you had Mike Gissiki with eight, and I guess, I guess Dallas Gauter was okay. So that's, that's it. You, you pretty much played against the bad tight end. If you didn't have Hawkinson this week, it, you know.

60:11 ↗
