this loop while I stared at Antonio Gates' number going, wait. I know that San Diego played. Right. This is saying that they haven't played. Yeah. But I know San Diego played. But wait. Two weeks. Two weeks. Yes. So Gates zero. Hunter Henry touchdown. Touchdown. We're falling apart America. Oh, it's been a long weekend. What do you do with these guys moving forward? That's no confidence for the playoffs with Gates.

No, look, the barfey tight ends. Gates is now one of them. You'd still rather, I think you'd still rather start Gates on a weekly basis over Hunter Henry. Hunter Henry is the future and he's great. I love him in Dynasty. We talked about Tyra Williams and Inman's injuries. Now you go out there. I'd play Hunter Henry. I would over Gates? I would. Or you'd play both? If both of those wide outs are out? Sure.

It's a coin flip for me, for sure. Definitely. Because Hunter Henry is more likely to me to rack up yards in the absence of those guys. Yeah. And I can stand on an island for that. No, you're not an island. As I spit out words incorrectly. I agree with that if those two wide receivers are out. Yeah, I'm just, you got to pay attention to it. I signed Hunter Henry this past week. Unfortunately, I didn't play him. I played this next guy. Gary Stinking Barnage. One for 11.

With McCown. Yeah. The guy I want to talk about. I was going to say, hey, Greg Olson owner. Oh, my goodness. Greg Olson, look, I have loved, I won last year's championship. Greg Olson, you were a big part of it. I don't want to be mean, but I'm like, I hate you right now. I don't, you're not getting a Christmas card, bro. Not until you step, not until you step it up, because I traded for you at your peak and I paid the price and you have.

You haven't been okay. You have been downright pure and utter garbage. I have been literally eating a sandwich out of a dumpster with you on my roster. And you know what? And I'm starting them next week. You've had to eat the sandwich. Oh. You have to take every bite after you trade for a guy like Greg Olson. There's no chance that I am going to bench him. And the mayonnaise is sour and you have to swallow it. The mayonnaise is green, my friend. It's gross. This is terrible. It's what he's, hey, he did it to himself.

trading for no it was no not you gregg olson did it to himself getting that and what's crazy is he had that great was like a 30 yard pass that that lost carolina the game they could have kicked the field goal and won right at the end of the game but he dropped it oh that was it was a it was a somewhat difficult if he had pulled that in that would have been no it hit him in the hands man when he's fully stretched out he's still a tight end look i i actually don't

Blame Olson. I think this is Cam Newton problem. Since his buy, not good. Cam, look, if you watch the first half of Cam playing, he was discombobulated. I mean, he was, he was firing the ball at 150% not accurate. It wasn't until the, uh, Ted Gin bomb that thing started getting on track for them. There's just something, something's off with, with cam. Since the, since their by week.

Greg Olson is the tight end number 18 behind Kobe Fleener and behind, I don't know, even Zach Miller, who has not been playing, and this is in total points. I mean, come on. But you're playing him next week. Yep. He's 23 on average. Yep. You're going to start. We need to get into the Monday night football game, guys. Packers, Eagles tonight, 47.5 point over under. Eagles favored by four and a half.

What is the, who are you starting? Who are you sitting from this matchup before we close out the show? I'll say I am, in one of my leagues I have Sproles and Smallwood. I'm starting Smallwood. As would I, for sure. I really like what they've been saying about him, which of course means that he'll be benched. It's Kenyon Barner. I like the fact that Ryan Matthews is just officially out. I think that makes Smallwood somewhat safe play.

You know, I also like, I like Jordan Matthews. I like the weapons. I'm almost more confident in the Eagles weapons because of the Packers. Defense. Now, someone on the Packers is going to get it done. I love the Eagles defense at home. I talked about it on the Megalodon. They're great. But, you know, Aaron Rogers can overcome a good defense. I just don't think there's going to be enough to go around to where you're not going to be happy with Jordy with Devante Adams and with Randolph. You think Devonty Adams put up like 22 points or so?

America, America, you need to root. If you're on team Andy, you need Devante Adams to get 22 points. If you're on team Jason, less than. Getting back to it. Yeah, go ahead. I think you're going to, I don't think we are changing things for people. We're already to Monday. They've already made their decisions on who they have to start. If they had to start Cobb, they've already made that decision. I have had, Adams. I've had more questions about people that own multiple.

wide receivers for Green Bay where they say who I'm down by seven is it Adams or Montgomery tonight and I'm like okay go Adams right I don't see much okay so that's a good question because I don't see much I think we're all going to put Montgomery on the bottom of that yes yes so we'd go Nelson but then you do do do Cobber Adams next tonight between Cobb and Adams I'm gonna go Cobb I'm gonna take Adams all right for about 22

I like Zach Earth tonight, too, by the way. Sure. But yeah. Okay. All right. You're right. You're right. People made their decisions. Starks. I like Starks tonight, and you're starting Rogers. So we'll be an interesting game. The Eagles defense has only allowed 19.6 receptions per game. So that's the way that Rogers has been throwing the ball. Something's got to give.

You guys have so much to say. All right. That's it for the podcast. Thanks for listening. We'll be back with the WaverWire show tomorrow. It's going to be a great week. Playoffs.
