But it's like, okay, it happened in the beginning of the game. Somehow with the clock running out, you're like, it seems less fair. Well, it's because of the call of saying that you don't expect a big game. And then you're right, you're right, you're right, you're right, you're right, you're right, you're wrong. You're flat wrong. All right, David Montgomery is a running back. He plays football for the Bears. And he does get 18.3 opportunities per game. The Rams giving up the fourth highest run success rate.

56:09 ↗

which he'll need. Yeah. But again, this is... He's an okay play. He's an okay play. He's an okay play every week. We don't need to talk about the matchup. I mean, look, it doesn't matter whether he plays a really weak defense, a really strong defense. He's the type of player that gets a ton of volume and does the same thing with it every week, which is falls forward for a couple of yards, catches a few balls, and finishes, you know, if you look at his consistency on the season. It's not been bad.

56:37 ↗

You know, he was 15. He was the running back 15 two weeks ago. He was the running back 14 last week. Maybe it's a little bit lower in this game. Maybe he's, you know, the running back 20, but he is a solid fantasy RB2 or someone you can plug in your flex. Since the Tariq Cohen injury, he is averaging nearly five receptions a game. He's, he's safe. He's, it's not fun. It's not a.

57:04 ↗

a delight to plug David Montgomery into your lineup, but you just have to do it. Yeah, the catches are necessary due to the three yards per carry over the last four games. It was, and last week, 24 opportunities, that was by far the most he's received this season. Yeah, it's just a matter of can they get ahead in this game. He's a perfect, he's a perfect, like, icon to represent the bears because he's not good, but he's.

57:33 ↗

Pretty good. But he's good enough for fantasy. It is like the Bears are like, man, they're not a great team. But they're winning all their games. So they're solid. Jimmy Graham, Red Zone looks coming his way each and every week. Alan Robinson. Yeah, you're playing him. Otherwise, I think that wraps it up. It does. Prop it like it's hot. Presented by Monkey Night Fight. We have to have Jason kick it off. Oh, yeah, for sure. I'm going to start with David Montgomery.

58:08 ↗

And his prop of, let's see here, 57.5 rushing yards. Now, we said you're going to have him in your lineup. You're going to start him. He's going to be okay. But it's not going to come from rushing yards because he's not very good at rushing yards. Over the last four weeks, here are his totals. He's not good at rushing yards? Yeah, it, you know, his grammar is.

58:37 ↗

inconsequential when you're talking about David Montgomery. He had 45 rushing yards, 27 rushing yards, 29 rushing yards, and 58 rushing yards. So this is someone that is not getting very close to this line.

58:52 ↗

I don't think he is good enough against this Rams defense. I am taking less than 57 and a half rushing yards. All right. I'm going Matthew Stafford more than 301 passing yards. That's where the line is. Lana has given up 300 yards to opposing quarterbacks. Let me do the math. 100% of the time. Every game. 300 or more. So I have been very bullish on Matthew Stafford and Kenny Gawley this week. Stafford gets it done more than a...

59:21 ↗

More than 301 passing yards. And I'm going, surprise, surprise. Oh, my. Look, I'm going Kyle Allen. His more or less is 242 yards. And I'm taking the more. He's playing the Dallas Cowboys. He hit, this is Kyle Allen. He hit 280 passing yards last week against the Giants. And the Cowboys, look, they're friendly against the passing game. I expect the Dallas Cowboys to have a much better performance this week.

59:49 ↗

driving Kyle Allen to have to throw the ball more, and I think he can pass that 242. All right, these props have been very fun this year, and you can check them out.
