returning from the injury feels like you can't even play him in fantasy. Yeah. And in the 17 game seasons, you know, that's 50 yards a game, basically. Yeah. That's not going to get it done. Amari Cooper, goose, full goose. He might have been the one to hurt the most people. I think that's Cooper Cup by a lot. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I think Amari Cooper was not played by everybody in the, but yeah, if you played him. You're probably not going to be prepping for a lineup next week. No, no, probably not. And then Calvin Ridley could not overcome the Will Lovis experience, three for 41. Has anyone, Calvin should put on the other team's uniform. Oh, my God. Like if Calvin went out there in a Bengals uniform, he would have the same amount of receptions. Yeah, you know, and they usually go for touchdowns. Oh, you're right. And he didn't score on these. Yeah.

56:23 ↗

put on another uniform, catch it, and then run the other way. Yeah, I think that's the key if you're playing with Will Levis. Josh Downs. It's like quarterbacks matter. Speaking of quarterbacks mattering, Josh Downs got eight targets from Anthony Richardson. He was able to catch three of them for 32 yards. So a down game in his first return to action. Anthony Richardson. He was 45% completion percentage. He's up to 47% of the year. Yeah, Anthony Richardson is, maybe he can develop and become good. Josh Allen, who's the best of the best in the league right now, there was a time into his playing career where he stunk. He just wasn't good. And so you have like the hopes that Anthony Richardson can develop, but make no mistake, he is a bad quarterback right now. He is not able to run an NFL offense.

57:17 ↗

Josh Allen as a rookie, do you remember his completion percentage? I would guess it was like 53%. It was 53%. Okay. He then went to 59% as a sophomore and 69%. The 69 was when he got Stefan digs. In 2020. But yeah, right now, right now people just need to chill on Richardson in general. Yeah. On both sides. Every game I'm seeing declarations of I'm right about this or that. Got the same amount of games played as Bo Nix. He started 12 collegiate games. He is super, super inexperienced as a professional quarterback, which is why you see some plays that look like he is the next Lamar Jackson, you know, a superstar, the next Cam Newton. And then there are plays that he looks absolutely awful. And just relax. You don't need to decide what he is yet. I would agree with that. I mean...

58:17 ↗

He can still develop into a good quarterback. For fantasy purposes, you're still going to have big weeks because of the legs. This week was tough because he threw two interceptions. He had, you know, the long, I think like a 23-yard rushing touchdown. So it seemed like he was on his way to a good fantasy game. Is he a streamer? Yeah, he's a streamer. He's someone that you could. Is that a triggering word for you right now? Hmm. No, I'm good, man. I've mentally, I've mentally fortified the urine into my bloodstream. So I am, I am empty now. My bladder is gone. Maybe if you cried a little bit from the, I would, I would cry urine, right? Well, that'd be gross. That'd be pretty gross. Um, okay, Kelsey 4 for 27, Kate Otten, is he?

59:04 ↗

Oh, that's, I know how concerned you are because. Yeah, because I don't have anybody else to play. You're rocking Kate Otten right now, and Baker had a great game again, where he goes out, throws for a lot of yards and four touchdowns, and here's Kate Otten with two for 24. Well, don't worry. I knew I had a Kate Otton problem, so I went out and I got a couple of guys. Who'd you get? Zach Ertz. Oh, don't play him. He's concussed. But no, I had Tayson Hill. Is he still an option for me? He is done for the year. Okay. All right.

59:33 ↗

Well, it's not working. Yeah. That's going to be my downfall. Hunter Henry just four for 25. Jake Ferguson, just two for 23. And Tucker Kraft was Tucker crap this week. Nice. Well, um, little did you know, Jason. We actually have a surprise 60 minute mailbag coming up. Fantastic. Did you know that? I, uh, I'm going to, I'm going to, I'm going to pee my fans. Um, no, we don't. We got waivers and streamers tomorrow. and hungry for more of the Thursday night preview in the mailbag. We'll be getting you ready for your semi-final matchups. And when I say you, I meant Al, not you, Jason. I'm sorry. But you do have, you got your champ champ team. I'm in a couple more leagues. I know. Just not the league of record. You knew you didn't have a shot, but we all thought you might. Yeah. Goodbye, everybody. Catch you tomorrow. Thank you for listening to another episode of the fantasy footballers podcast.
