Starts of the Week + Week 4 Games, Cat Fight! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 10/1

With the Jalen Daniel start? I think I'd play Kernel T. Ironically, some of the numbers on that. Emeka Buka, his first three weeks as his rookie season, he was only 22% target share. Rome was at 18. Teterola McMillan, great rookie season was only 24% through his first three weeks. It's just so much more than target share. No, I agree. I'm not saying you're saying that it's all that, but it's not a stat that I am holding on to for Carnell Tate in particular because the target from Cam Ward.

You need four to equal a target from a regular quarterback. And those three games for Abuka last year that you talked about, you know, he scored three touchdowns in him. For goodness sakes, Carnal Tate, what's the overrunner on touchdowns rest of the way? What's insane? Three? Carnell Tate should have had a touchdown in that game. He was wide open in the end zone. And it was a target. Yeah, and it just got missed. So it's, I mean, it's so easy. And Wondale's out targeting him. Yeah, I mean, it's going to those two guys. The part of the problem here is.

volume and speed because you know you could say oh 25% target share is not bad but you know we've talked about this in the past with baltimore where it's like well how many total targets how they're playing so slow where it's like cam ward had 23 completions two weeks ago was 13 completions you'd have to have like 75% target share to matter so hopefully cam ward gets it together figures out

a little bit better play. I mean, we saw down the stretch last year some signs of life from Cam Ward. You came into this season, Andy. Shut up. Shut your mouth. We're going to be a good offense. I don't know what you're talking about. That wasn't me. It was going to be good. That wasn't me. So, you know, it's still very early in his career. I hate myself for thinking that. I really do. Yeah. I want to apologize for that. I want to apologize for believing anything about Malik Willis.

and Miami. I want to apologize for Dowding Chiron Williams. Oh, the spotlight here is. I hate any wrong things I say, and those were super wrong. Cam Ward sucks balls. Oh, get wrecked. Get wrecked. I mean, I had to do something to get out of the spotlight. I will remind you. Which is still, something's happening in this room right now. Andy, for as bad as you feel, just remember.

The Titans drafts him at number one. They feel worse, you think? Yeah. Our room is, we're in a complete... Where we should be. Oh, Jeremy's running around. He definitely wants the camera on and over there. Dallas. Oh, yeah, Brooks. I should have hit that. What did he say? That's on me, Brooks. I don't say it often. That's for sure. Dallas 1 and 2, Houston, O and 3, over under 48 and a half. You talked about Stroud. Houston minus 3. Still favorite at home at 0 and 3 against Dallas.

Because Dallas is one and two and they just seem inexact in what they are. Like we don't. They just made a trade for Joey Porter Jr. Big trade. Probably not playing this week. Could be out there. Houston's defense has been weird. They are still stopping running back. So I have my doubts about Javante going into Houston with that crowd and going up against the number two running defense and doing anything.

So I think there might be starts at decisions related to him. Like Braylin Allen or Javante, I think is a fair question. I think it's fair. Like Braylin Allen will probably have more yards than Javante, but I'll touchdown upside still. It's still pretty hot. Are you there too, Jay? Yeah, I am a barely Javante. I think that's a fair call though. You can make the decision on your own. This is a team that, you know, last year the Texans, you couldn't do anything against them. This year, they've been beaten in the passing game.

However, two-thirds of their games were Josh Allen and Joe Burrow, and now here's Dak. So it's like, I don't know. Are they going to figure that out? No. You don't think so? Do you think they're just not as good as they were last year? I don't think they're figuring it out this week against Dak and CD and Pickens. No, I don't. I think their numbers are going to look this bad next week. They might win the game because Dallas's defense is equally atrocious. And, you know,

Can they run the ball? They thought that they could get their little Joe Mixing thing going with David Montgomery and Woody Marks. They have not. If Woody Marks is on your waiver, you should pick him up. I mean, David Mopportunity is a cool six for 10 and 11 for 33 the last two weeks with no touchdowns. I mean, it's been gross, gross, nasty, nasty. I would pick up Woody Marks. Yeah, but he's only averaging 3.3 a touch, but they may move on. But he has looked.

much better than David Montgomery. I mean, I know that there's been some talk about them getting him more involved. You're still going to go to Bath for David Montgomery? Woody Marks was 8 for 8. Yeah, I mean, this is. Woody Marks was 5 for 15 the last two games. They haven't run it the last two games. It's an office of line problem. And I do think that they certainly still prefer David Montgomery over Woody Marks. David Montgomery played 63% of the snaps last week. So it's like this is still their leader. At this point he is. Yes.

But it was a difficult matchup. Now they are, they're playing against the Cowboys. Like this could be a very, this could be a week where David Montgomery is benched in a lot of leagues and has two touchdowns again on your bench. Are you playing him against a Dallas defense that's ranked 25th so far? Or are you playing Javante who gets everything against the number two Houston defense? I would play David Montgomery. So that's interesting. You guys should bet like $100 on that. No, I don't, I'm not bullish.

I'm not bullish on David Montgomery. He only bets on Naron Rogers. He's a man of principal. I bet against the Browns. Okay. In this game, by the way, Nico Collins could be back. He was seen practicing again on Thursday. And you play him. They would need him. C.D. Lamb, George Pickens, Mike, start of the week, play him. And then Jake Ferguson, he has managed to score in two straight weeks. He has a touchdown or bust tight end. But you could maybe do worse in a high over-under game than sliding him into your.

line up if you need to. Ferguson, Mike, or Colson Loveland? Wow. Wow. Let's finish our matchup talk with that. Ferguson. All right. This also feels like a playoff game. Like one of these teams. Between a one and two and O and three teams. Oh, oh, I see what you mean. One of these teams is going to be, you know, really if you're 0 and four is the Texans. Yeah. It's over. Wow. And if the Cowboys losing their one and three.

They're going to feel like it's tough too. No, I get it. You're right. Absolutely. Dalton Schultz, it is a revenge game for him. He's got the second most targets. He is a if Nico doesn't play start to me.

Seahawks have designated running back. Zach Charbonator returned to practice, guys. Tradeaway Judarian Price. I think it's too late. Who's buying? I think the bag is in your hands.
