If you're new, you put in the code Ballers. You get $5 towards your first auction. You won't believe what you can basically steal here for money if that's a thing. And the code ballers turns into dollars. Oh, man. It rhymes. Wide receivers who tore it up this week.
Welcome back to the party, Mr. Stefan Diggs. I want to believe that this is more of an aberration. Like, we knew this would be a good game. You can't run against the Eagles, and they want to run. Seven for 167 yards, three touchdowns, 11 targets, a doink in the face mask, as our producer has added in here. He actually...
It was really funny. He kind of sucked. Like, after his big two bombs, he hurt their team. He caused one of the interceptions. Then he had an awful drop. It's like, what, you just did all your work and you checked out digs? But what I was saying is I want to believe that this is not, this is a cell high, not something that you can necessarily just completely buy into because this was the type of matchup where you knew.
This is good for the Vikings passing game. However, you look at their upcoming schedule. It's a delight. Detroit's not that great. I think they're going to try to run the ball, but the following two weeks, you get the Redskins and you get the Kansas City Chiefs. I mean, yeah, I think Diggs is certainly bouncing back. And we had Terry McLaurin, scary Terry McLaurin, the F-1. He was playing the Miami Dolphins. He was my start of the week. Four receptions, only four.
for a hondo and two touchdowns. If you played him, you're very, very happy. Terry McLorn has the fourth most receiving yards through his first five games of his career, only behind Anquan Bold and Randy Moss and the aforementioned Stefan Diggs. All right. We've been going back and forth talking about some of these guys. Trade Adrian Peterson. Don't trade Stefan Diggs. And I don't think what you're, I don't think you're going to like what I have to say on Terry McLaren. But I am.
I would be looking to trade him. Now, if you do, make sure you read the full first name of the player coming in, not just D. Johnson, like an idiot. I don't think there's a lot of T. McLorins in the league. No, I'm talking about who you get back for T. McLaurin. Oh, I got you. With T. McLaurin at this point, Scary Terry is, I love him. He is dominant. He's been doing it in tough matchups, right? He had a great game against Chicago.
That's all well and good, but that is when Jay Gruden was running the offense. You just said it. Four targets. No, four receptions. Seven targets. Four receptions. Seven targets is okay. But this is against the Miami Dolphins. This is a team that wants to run the ball almost to their detriment now. Yes, they won. But if anything, that gives them confidence to keep trying to run. But it won't work.
Correct. This plan will not, of running Adrian Peterson against San Francisco, Minnesota, Buffalo, it will not work. Yeah, but those names that you just brought up are what I want. I mean, the San Francisco defense looks as legit as it gets. Talk to Cooper Cup and Robert Woods and, you know, every pass-catching option from this week that had to face them. Then Minnesota in Minnesota, and possibly following that with the number one toughest matchup for.
wide receivers in Buffalo, and then a buy week. You can capitalize. Scary Terry can bring a lot right now, and I'm worried about his next month. Are you not? No, I'm concerned about it, but he's really, really good. So I'm going to continue to play him adjusting my expectations. I don't mind the sell high if you can really capitalize off of the name. Don't sell to sell. Sell to capitalize. Shop. Shop. And if you can get a haul for him, then...
That's great. I mean, you know, you look at these guys and go, okay, Scary Terry for the Redskins with Case Keenum, is he going to end up with 16 touchdowns? Of course not. But that's his pace, which means the absence of those touchdowns would be coming. It's not just touchdowns, though. He's been a yardage beast. He's never been under 50 yards in his career. Look, he's great. I love him. That's why I'm saying so high not just get rid of him.
Chris Godwin, 12 targets turned into 10 receptions and 151 yards. He did have a little bit of that, a little bit of that stinky garbage there at the end of the game, but fantasy owners will take it. Tyreek Hill, welcome back. Oh, he's the free. Five for 80, two scores on 10 targets, 10 targets on limited play, too. I mean, he was, he had the, I think the fourth few of snaps at the wide receiver position. The other guys were playing a lot.
like DeMarcus Robinson and McColl Hardman. They just didn't do anything because as soon as Tyree Kill was in, that's who Patrick Mahomes went to. Do you remember, did Rock and Jock, was that the one that had the hoop that was like, yeah, the bonus points? 20 feet high. Yeah, you're talking about the old school MTV show where it was celebrities versus athletes and they had wacky rules. Dude, that was awesome. I loved it. Yeah, bring it back. But Tyree Kilk could. We're ready, by the way. Yes. MTV, Rock and Jock, you need.
People who are very, very important celebrities. Super important celebrities. I'm great of basketball. I'll break your ankles. I'd rather do the softball. Ooh, I've never swung a bat in my life. You've never swung a bat? I mean, I would crush it. I would be so good, but I just haven't done it yet. I believe I'd be awesome. We need to take you to the batting cage for a challenge. Oh, another video coming your way. My point was Tyree Kill can dunk on that 20-foot hoop.
Oh, for sure. The way he went up for that first touchdown and just levitated while every other player went down with gravity and he stayed up there. That was crazy. Curtis Samuels, Jason sort of started the week. Oh, my sort of, my secondary start of the week. The regression hit four for 70 with a score through the air and a weird rushing touchdown, but we will take it. Sure. He was, let's just say he was my, he was my fan duel.
Yes, he was. Ballers on a budget pick. My Kool-Aid man started the week, which was mocked relentlessly on this show, Al-Shon Jeffrey. He ended up with 10 for 76 and a touchdown, a very, very solid fantasy day. Every target seemed to be going his way. Because that's what happens. I don't know why you guys are so out on Al-Shan. He's a target machine. I wasn't out on Al-Shan. Did I disparage him or something? Nah.
We can check the tape. Brooks is laughing because he knows I'm right. Welcome back Robbie Anderson, five for 125 and a score. A 92-yard touchdown will do that. You will show up. Like I talked about for the Jets, I'm very in on Robbie Anderson after these next two games. What sucks about this is now that he hit, you can't wait to get him off the waiver wire. People will go after him. So if you're going to stash him.
for this upcoming schedule. You're going to have to do it. Reminder to that Golden Tate was somehow good against the New England Patriots. And he gets Arizona. Look, there was. I don't know who was watching the Monday night football game last night. I mean, probably a lot of you. No one, I don't think anyone was watching the Monday night football game last night. Oh, that's a good point because that was Sunday night football. Oh, Brooks giving you the get bodied Mike the tap man. You're right.
Thank you. If you were watching the Sunday night football game, if you stuck with it towards the end, you missed the debut. Or if you didn't stick with it, you missed the debut of our good friend. You might know him, but we have some audio. Jason Moore, who is just activated off the practice squad, who makes the catch, a little behind him, so he had to fall down. He'd gotten out in front. And so Moore makes his first career catch.
congratulations jason a moment that i'll never forget my first reception from my good friend uh philip lip as we call him uh it was a it was an absolutely great moment lips rivers lips rivers and uh look i mean i told them put me in i'm ready i go in and look i didn't i didn't stop there i got another tiger got another reception so the
fact that we were watching all the games or the game together last night our editor-in-chief kyle the borgogun made the trip to the ffb headquarters we're watching the game a a feller named jason moore catches the past the NFL and your twitter mentions exploded i don't think i have ever had as many like within one minute there was
probably 50 or 60 congratulations on my first reception. And I just want to say it meant a lot. It meant a lot. Thank you. That was a big moment for me. If Jason can do nothing and yet still receive adoration for it, that's on brand. That's one of the best things in your life. Evans, Julian Edelman and Odo Beckham had solid games. Odo Beckham six for 101 on 11 targets. Are we hopeful?
Well, yeah, you're hopeful. All right. You have two choices. Are you going to sell him? Am I going to sell O'Dell? Are you going to sell the hope? I mean, you might have to sell O'Dell because if you have him and you've been losing, you have to, you know, assuming it's a redraft league, not a keeper or a dynasty league, then that's a situation where your record says you have to win now. O'Dell Beckham now showed his value where he's got the big name, he's coming off a good game.
And if you need victories now, you've got a bi-week followed by the Patriots. Two weeks after that, Buffalo, O'Dow Beckham could score on anybody. But if you have him and you've been losing and you need victories, there is a window. At the tight-end position, welcome back. Hunter Henry, eight for a hondo, two touchdowns, nine targets has...
Twice as many touchdowns as Travis Kelsey. Oh, my goodness. He seems like he will be a big part of the offense moving forward to the detriment of those Austin Echler dumpoffs. He was looking downfield for Hunter Henry. Austin Hooper dominated as expected, eight for 117 with a touchdown. Austin Hooper is crushing. He is crushing the dreams of all fantasy opponents. He's on pace for 112 receptions, almost 1,300 yards, and 8.
They hate touchdowns. He's not going to keep this. Oh, my goodness. I mean, you're certain. Look, he's the real deal with this crappy offensive line for Atlanta. They, they are using him. He's running so many routes. I'm not saying Austin Hooper's going away. He's leveled up. He's a core part of this offense. It's bizarre when you watch Calvin Ridley how often he's coming off the field, even though he's such a talented wide receiver. They,
This is the team they want. So until Dan Quinn is fired, which might be in about, I don't know, 30 seconds. Yeah. Until there's a change at the coaching position for Atlanta, I think you have to assume you're going to get more of the same for Hooper, just not so easy because they don't get to play Arizona anymore this year. George Kiddo, we finally hit 100 yards. He gets to take on Washington next week. And then Mark Andrews defying his injury status coming through with big games, eight targets.
Hit six for 99. He did have a fumble, but you were still happy with him overall. With the good, Jason, comes the bad, and prepare your nostrils. Stinkers of the week, presented by odor eaters. Garf! Oh, Garf. Jeer! We had the one year Garfaversary recently on social medias, and...
He did not respond well. Maybe he didn't like the nickname so he was revolting or was a rebellion of some sorts. He was certainly revolting. He was he was putrid. I had to go back and watch the game because I was at the Cardinals Falcons game. But while I was there, I'm tracking everything, watching a little bit of red zone. They weren't on it much. And looking at the stats and I'm just like,
What is going on in this game? Something froze. We've seen the stats freeze. Yeah, the stats froze. He's at 49 passing yards and we're going into the third, late in the third quarter. Clearly the stats have not caught up. But I mean, I don't remember a word. Like, here's the deal. In real life, James Winston had just as bad a game. Right. Five interceptions was horrific. But golf was worse because he didn't do anything to help.
