We don't care where you hear it.
Welcome and everybody to fantasy pros.
This is out of bounds.
It is me Joey P.
Joe Pizapia here with my two best friends,
Bogman and the Welsh.
They put the special in special teams
because that was the theme of week three.
That's for sure.
My goodness, lots of block field goals,
lots of scoops and scores.
And we're going to scoop the best and the worst of week three.
Turn the page to week four and see how fantasy football is going to treat us.
So we like to have fun and talk football here.

I believe that's when it is.
If not, maybe another Tuesday.
I don't know.
I want to talk about week three.
Scott Bogman, I've been itching to talk about Cam Scadaboo because I'm so excited.
He scored a touchdown for us on Sunday night football.
He did a backflip.
Tyrone Tracy's hurt.
I don't want him to be hurt.
but I'm just excited that Cam Scataboo is breaking through.
That's what I'm excited about.
My logic on Tyrone and Tracy not getting carries was completely wrong, but we still
hit because he got hurt.
So I'll take a win where I can sneak one in, I guess.
But yeah, Cam Scataboo looks like a real go-to running back for the rest of the season.
And this is kind of what I thought was going to end up happening.
I didn't know there's going to happen week three, right?
I thought it was going to happen maybe a little bit later in the season.
but with the Tyrone Tracy injury and what he looked like last week, he's clearly just the best back here.
And I mean, you saw it in his Brian Dayball interview when he was screaming in the background.
And Daveo was making fun of him, you know, this is the intensity that Scataboo brings.
And I opened up my eyes this morning to a lot of text messages about Cam Scatterboot.
Very exciting stuff.
Welsh, I want to talk to you about the scoop and score at the end of the Eagles game here from Jordan Davis.
next-gen stats, I've got the miles per hour of how fast he was running.
Would you like to take a crack at how fast big man Jordan Davis was running the opposite way of the field?
He could have just sat on the football.
That could have been the game, but no.
Price is right this highest without going over here?
We can go highest without going over.
Let me start.
Let me start.
All right.
I'm going to go with a speedy 4.8 miles per hour.
More than that.
Scott Bogman.
Go ahead.
Closes without going over.
15.5 miles per hour.
You're both under Scott Bogman is closer.
He was running at 18 miles an hour according to next gen stats.
I know.
He has shed some weight and he is an athletic beast as you were talking.
See, but, see, but, BW, I bring it back there.
BW.
BW knows.
He was running like he was trying to go to the purple shirt store like you guys.
He was flying.
Don't be jealous because we have the purple shirts and you do not have the purple shirts, okay?
Anybody that's listening on the podcast, Bachman and Joe decided to purple it up.
So I put, I've been a purple background in here, but I don't own any purple shirts.
Sorry I didn't get the memo, guys.
Oh, well, you know.
Damn it.
That's going to be the best comment all day.
I can't beat that.
I hate being beat early in the day like this, Welsh.
God, that was great.
I don't know.
I mean, he was saving that all.
though because he was making fun of it was so good it was perfect though it was good the timing of it was good
almost as good as oh but what was with all of the blocked field goals it was kind of well in recent
memory do you ever remember that many field goals being blocked in that period of time think they said it was
1987 or 1991 the last time five got blocked five got blocked and then the scooped scores too that there
was two of them too and not only that they were they were they were by the guy that blocked the field goal too
block of them. Block scoop scored. Yeah, I've never felt less confident about kicking than this week. Every
single kick, you're like, guys are going to block it. Like nothing is safe. You got to go for every
fourth down. No, it was super, super weird. We're going to talk about it. By the way, shout out to everybody
in the chat. You guys are already bringing up a lot of show topics because there's a lot of things.
We got to talk about some of the defensive stuff. Some of the scoop and score things are out here.
It was a wild, weird week. And special teams was at the forefront of it for whatever reason.
Yeah. And the weirdest part is Boggs, like, I don't play in a lot of leagues with defense special teams.
I play in some IDP leagues like you and I do. And I've got like, I don't know, a handful,
maybe two, three that have defenses. So defensive scoring, especially since you had Connor go down
with an injury, Mike Evans go down with an injury, C.D. Lamb go down with an injury.
Naji Harris, like the list goes on and on, right, Terry McLorn. A lot of scoring was suppressed.
If you look at the high scores at some of these teams that have these defensive touchdowns in these moments of the game.
Here's the worst thing, Joe, is that I have Will McDonald.
on two IDP teams.
Didn't start them.
Didn't start them.
No.
I mean,
why was a shame?
Yeah.
That's a shame.
I just didn't happen.
But I didn't have Isaiah Rogers anywhere.
So at least there's that.
Legitimately,
I was thinking about this,
you could have had Cardi, the kicker,
and the Vikings defense,
and that probably could have outscored both of your starting running backs
and maybe you're tied in this week.
That's how weird it was.
Yeah.
It's very possible.
We got a lot to get to here, a lot of headlines, a lot of things going on.
But first, a little questions with asses.
That's right.
These asses are going to answer some of my questions here.
And the first, we got to start out with the Chargers backfield, Najee.
Harris, unfortunately, done for the year.
It's a second running back in two weeks to have an Achilles tear.
Very sad stuff there.
So Amarian Hampton, here's a question.
Boggs, is he ready to take over the Chargers backfield?
We've seen all of these rookie RBs in the first month of the season, kind of last year, too.
And this year, they almost red shirt September.
it's like nobody wants to play these guys much in September because the season's much longer in the NFL, the wear and terror is greater.
Now the Chargers hand has been forced is Omari and Hampton up to the task.
It doesn't matter if he is or isn't, does it, Joe?
He's going to get the touches.
He's going to get about 25 a game.
So I think he's up for it.
I mean, he was a workhorse back in North Carolina.
I think he's going to be a workhorse back here for the Chargers as well.
I think this is what they wanted.
But a lot like we talked about with Cam Scatibu.
I didn't know that it was going to happen this early.
now, Nashi being out all of camp and them not using him and then ramping him back up was probably the cause of this, by the way.
I mean, Nashi's never missed a game before.
So, yeah, this is unfortunate, but I think it just means wheels up from Arampton.
And you'll get some of those annoying games where he's not very good because he runs into a wall.
But he's going to get the touches.
So he's going to be up there every week in the rankings.
All right.
Let's expand this further.
So Hampton, regardless, is going to get the opportunity here.
Obviously, his fantasy stock just shot through the roof.
So it feels like if you were a zero or hero RB drafter this year, things are really going
your way.
Trey Benson now is going to have the lead.
We have Omarine Hampton getting the lead.
If Ramandre Stevenson puts one more GD ball on the ground, I'm going to lose my mind.
Why are we giving the ball at Trayvion Henderson?
Scataboo.
I just losing my absolute mind about that yesterday.
So Welsh, the question is, are you worried it all about Hampton at some point hitting that wall?
You know, we've seen that with some of the rookies sometimes when they get too much too soon here.
By the time we get to week 13 or something like that, right in the fantasy playoffs, that wear and tear does start to show out on them.
Do you think that's a problem potentially with Hampton?
Or is like, to Boggman's point, look, this was the guy in college.
He had the full backfield.
He can handle this here in the pros.
Yeah, I mean, it's fair what you're saying.
But I don't think there's any application to it.
Like, he's the guy.
After this injury, he ended up getting, where is it here?
he had almost 70% of all the rush attempts from week three.
And that's counting where Najee was in there.
Like he's going to be the guy.
He was close to an 80% snap share.
He was targeted out of the backfield.
He's the dude.
Could he wear it down?
Yeah, maybe.
But this is like a run heavy offense that in the early part of the season has built
around passing, which is just going to help later on into the year.
This is a huge win for Amerian Hampton.
It really sucks for Najee.
I do believe they'll bring somebody in.
They talked about bringing somebody in the preseason.
with Naji had the eye injury and everything like that.
So they're going to bring somebody.
Maybe they're going to make a trade.
But at the end of the day, it looks like like Hampton is going to be full go, full go.
All right.
Let's take some questions here from the audience because some of the comments are very funny that we're not answering.
You know what?
Well, we will.
We just started the show.
Let us let us say hello.
The person that's like, well, isn't the dedication for it?
It's a show.
Answer questions immediately.
I don't understand how this works.
I don't, you have to talk to me right now.
no, we have to talk about our purple shirts first.
That's what we're talking about for.
All right.
How are we feeling about Scadaboo?
Rank him higher than JCP?
Here's a good question.
So rest of season, do you have Scadaboo higher than JCP?
Because I sure do, especially after yesterday's Washington Commander backfield usage.
I forgot.
Do we have to do the skull chant before we answer this question or no?
Okay.
I'm ready.
Go ahead.
No, I'm good.
I would rank Scataboo higher than J.C.
And then Bill.
I mean, he's been a workhorse before.
Bill Crosky Merritt isn't a great.
spot, right? I think this is a very good spot for both these guys, specifically with Austin
Neckler down. But I mean, Jaden is going to run. They're going to mix in Chris Rodriguez, who had the
most carries as well. I think this is pretty much Cam with Singletary as a sidecar at this point,
where I think Washington is going to be a little split between those guys. I think it'll eventually
go to Bill. Oh, it's not. They're just running everybody else. They start with Chris Rodriguez out
there in Jeremy McIllis. This is not split. But don't you think also, Welsh, that,
eventually Bill is going to be the best back and he'll take over that role.
It's an interesting by the year.
But it's like, we get it.
And maybe that's true, but also, you know, it was Mariotti yesterday.
It was a specific game plan.
Perhaps we're all just overreacting.
We talked on the waiver show about Rodriguez.
The three different guys scored rushing touchdowns for the.
Right.
So I mean, that doesn't.
And Jane Daniels wasn't under center.
So the offense isn't going to be the same with Marcus Mariotas as with Jane
Daniels.
So who knows it what that's going to look like.
Let's go to, uh, hot pocket Carl here.
I don't know how you got.
that nickname.
You know how you got that nickname.
You know what?
I scratch that.
I actually do want to know how you got that.
No, no.
I think you were good.
The first.
Okay.
Josh Jacobs.
Is he a sell?
Absolutely not.
Absolutely not.
No.
You look.
The Green Bay Packers went into a situation where they had a Browns team that's good
on defense and with Judkins back now can really run the football.
And they were fighting for their life.
This was their Super Bowl.
This was like, hey, we're going to be irrelevant for the rest of the season if we don't
get a W here and stop the bleeding.
And they did.
And the Packers.
were caught in a week and they were in a tough spot there.
They were down a bunch of players and this is what happens and they didn't execute.
Here's a question too.
Should the Falcons stay the course with Michael Pennix or pivot to Kirk Cousins?
Apparently head coach said, no, that's not an option.
But, you know, I don't think it should be.
I just want to make sure that we're not heading in that direction.
I mean, you bench Michael Pennix at the end of the game when the game is already in hand
and he can't do anything, right?
Like it was pretty clear he was having a bad day.
So get him out of there, right?
I think that's exactly what they did.
But this isn't going to be a permanent move at all.
Yeah.
What is your favorite hot pocket, by the way?
I haven't had a hot pocket since like 2003.
I remember the last time I had a hot pocket.
Yeah.
I was just going to let you know I could win that one liner contest right now, but I'm a general.
No, that's it.
So Hammond cheddar for me.
There you go.
The ham and cheddar one I remember in college being one that I like.
The pizza one was weird.
I want to say it was like a buffalo chicken one.
The heat ratio just never works.
You got to poke the whole.
It's always too hot.
The first bite is just hot pockets aren't it.
It's the Gaffigan joke.
Do you want it?
Yeah.
Solid frozen in the middle?
Yeah.
Or boiling lava hot.
Yeah.
There is no in between.
Will it burn my mouth?
It'll destroy your mouth.
Don't ever read the ingredients, by the way, in a hot pocket.
Just don't do it.
Plastic sulfate.
Yeah.
Well, Carson Wentz,
you surp.
J.J. McCart.
in Minnesota.
Well, I'm just going to ask this because this is a team that really, you know,
look, they're in the think of it, 13 win team, 14 win team.
This is a team that's fighting around there.
If Wence runs a couple of victories off here, is there any sort of chatter in Minnesota,
is like, hey, let's not go back to the kid quite yet.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, absolutely not.
They could abroad Sam Darnel back if they wanted to do this game.
It's the exact same thing with Pinnock.
This stuff is silly to me.
You want to have great veteran quarterbacks to back up if your guys,
fall apart, get hurt.
It's way too early in the season.
Could it happen?
Sure, anything could happen.
If JJ McCarthy plays like he did for six of eight quarters once he returns for,
like he does it over a month.
Yeah, maybe Wins played really efficient.
But no, we're going to go with a big fat no on those oldies taking over the newies.
All right.
Here's an interesting question, too.
I want to get this from the chat here.
So, you're taking away my thing for later.
I was going to tell you, don't do any.
You know what we do our take if you want to take away some moments.
Well, hold on a second.
This is an interesting one though.
Well, not really.
Where do you rank him rest of season?
I don't know where that is.
But like rest of season right now, Welsh, do you think he is, would you put him low end
RB1?
Would you put him high end RB2?
Like how aggressive would you be on Judkins here?
Especially now that we've got guys that are gone.
Like we've lost James Connor, you know?
Not like Eckler was really in that mix necessarily.
But like we're in a tough spot.
And some of the quarterbacks that we've lost already in this year
are going to have a massive impact on these backfields too
because when you don't have good quarterback play,
you cap your ability to score fantasy points
because you're not moving the change,
you're not scoring touchdowns.
So per my week three takeaways,
which we have on the sheet and I have there,
this is my takeaway.
Jutkins, Quintan Jutkins,
is a top 20 back moving forward.
I do not think that is even in question anymore.
He had the highest percentage of team rights.
rush attempts in week three of any running back.
His snaps, you know, they're still moving up, but he had the highest amount of team.
Every rush attempt, but one, he's still forcing tackles.
I had the, I stupidly had the under on his rushing yards.
But I'm going to point this out, he did not have the over until eight minutes left
in the fourth, but he beat down one of the best defenses in the NFL, one of the best rush
defenses.
They hadn't given up, they were giving up like 2.5 yards per carry.
They had given up, he rushed for more yards in this game than they had given up combined in the first two games because he beat them down.
And the Browns committed to him.
They gave him all the rush attempts.
He can catch out of that.
He is him.
He is all of it.
So the only thing that's going to stop him is taking him off the field due to a suspension.
So I am fully in on Quinchon Jutkins because like he's going to continue to do this.
If he gets 15 plus carries, he beat down overtime the best defense in the answer.
NFL, he's stretching it. I'm fully in. I think he's a top 20, maybe even a top 15 guy.
The amount of questions in this chat that were Quinchon Jutkins is at least 40%.
Every question was Jutkins, Jutkins, Jutkins, and that was my big takeaway for this week,
that we've now seen the progression, Jerome Ford is nothing. Samson could catch out of the backfield.
You know what? Honestly, the Chargers should maybe call about Jerome Ford because I bet you could
get him for a bucket of peanuts at this point because he has no room on this, on this,
team anymore. Jutkins is an easy top 20 back, maybe top 15. People are saying, hey, should I
trade the Swift? Yeah, you should do all those things because he looks so good and the Browns are going to,
Browns were going to him when they were still down versus the Packers. They kept rushing the ball
with him. I think he might end up being the best rookie of all these guys. I'm going to throw it out
there. Gentie looks fine. Amerian Hampton looks good, but Judkins is as good as these guys right now,
and maybe he's the number one.
I mean, listen, if you find someone that talks about you the way Welsh speaks about
Quinshan Judkins, I didn't think that was ever going to end, Welsh.
That was amazing.
I didn't feel like it.
That was a fun show, everybody.
Thanks for joining us.
That was an impassioned speech about Quinn Sean Judkins.
It really was.
But I think he warrants it.
And I think what we saw them do against the Packers is the perfect.
strategy for the Browns to try to execute every single week.
Play strong defense, run the football, control the clock.
That's what they want to do.
So, I mean, I think that Welsh is exactly right.
I don't want to, I don't want to, you know, break into song here.
But Gwynchon Junkins is the man and is at least an RB2 moving forward.
Life with Fife in the chat just said, well, you emptied the clip on Jutkins, nothing for later.
Nope, that was my take.
That was my takeaway for week three.
You're right.
I was waiting for it.
I'm worried we'll have to add a second show.
I think the beauty of the bit we just did was that Bogman started and then I joined it exactly on the second verse.
Oh, you guys, that was one of the best like singing behind.
Yeah, it was beautiful.
That was very, very good.
All right, let's move on to the takeaways and our favorite moments from the week that was in fantasy football.
My first takeaway, Jordan Mason is going to be a league winner.
I just, I see it.
It's in the stars.
Aaron Jones, maybe we get him a lot.
Week eight the way the schedule falls and the injury falls.
And by then, I mean, at some point, we have to look at and go.
maybe it should be Jordan Mason's backfield.
Is he special?
No.
Is he in a situation where they're going to run the ball and play defense,
considering the way the quarterback play is going to be this year?
Whether it's JJ or whether it's Wentz, whoever it is in the weeks ahead.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And Jordan Mason coming away with a couple scores and 100 yards look pretty darn good to me.
Box, let's get your takeaway here from week three in the NFL.
I'm ready to break up with some people.
Oh, okay.
So I'm going to publicly do this.
So we're in a public place.
It's loud in here.
We can't make a scene.
Marvin Harrison, Jr., I'm breaking up with you.
And listen, this one's going to be going to make Welsh very happy.
Isaiah Pacheco, I'm breaking up with you.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, listen, I think I want to break up with the entire chiefs defense or offense right now.
It is pathetic.
It is not good.
They only put up 22 points on the Giants.
who the Cowboys whooped last week.
I don't understand what's happening here.
I know that the wide receiver injuries are a major part of it, of course.
They are.
I think the,
you made Tyquant Thornton looked like a god yesterday.
Like,
why can't this offense get it together?
They have no push.
Let Breschard Smith have this backfield.
Let him do it.
Yeah,
you're getting nothing from Pacheco.
That would be a guy in the waiver wire that I would stash right now
just in the weeks ahead to see if it turns around
because he was the only guy that looked like he had any
kind of snap and any hitching his giddy up.
And I think the entire Chief's offense
can be summed up in that one play
where you remember when
during the game in the first half where
Mahomes pumped the ball like three times
and then eventually tried to dump it off to Kelsey
and it was like five yards out of his reach.
Kelsey's got to be on that one or whatever he's out.
How?
Shut up.
You pumped 17 times.
This is nowhere near you pump 17 times.
This is worse than KMP.
But that was it.
It's like we're trying so hard to make it all
work and we're just falling short.
To me, that was like the encapsulation of the chiefs in 2025 so far.
Like, we're just trying so hard, trying so hard, trying so hard and failing.
And that seems to be what it is.
Thank goodness, Russell Wilson, you know, two out of every three balls he throws up in the
air, go to the other team.
And those rainbow balls are really good at going to the other team this year.
Well, but they either go incomplete or they go, I mean, that ball he threw in the
end zone at the end there.
I'm still wondering where that was headed.
I have no idea.
Like, I got to be like, somebody's open somewhere.
It's like, you just got a toss and ball.
Well, what was your big takeaway from last week?
As on the sheet, it was Jutkins.
I had put this before we started the show.
It was Jutkins being a top.
Let's get right to your moment of the week, which is probably also Judkins.
No, but I want to do this because everybody, yeah, it is probably.
It's actually, it is Judkins laying Micah Parsons down on the ground.
That was the big one.
No, I want to reference one thing.
Everybody after the Jutkins speech was saying touch on the suspension.
So let's touch on that for a second.
Then I'll give you my moment.
On the suspension,
we've heard some stuff.
I think it's Drew Davenport.
Davenport has been out there saying it actually looks like we might not have a suspension.
But here would be the thing.
I'm going to throw this out to you.
If you are going out to try to go acquire Jutkins, I think you can use the looming suspension
to your favor.
People might not be on that he's a top 15, 20-ish type of back and that the looming
suspension is out there.
Use that in your favor if you were trying to go acquire.
I am going to go off of the assumption that the worst case scenario you're dealing with
is two, but it's sounding like there might not.
not be anything in season, but obviously things can change. Okay, so you want my moment. My moment
is a defensive moment. And the pure glory, and even though I'm not a big IDP guy, that's Bogman,
the absolute dominant defensive performance by Isaiah Rogers this weekend was ridiculous. He had
two past, past defenses, two touchdowns, a forced fumble, a recovered force fumble, a couple
tackles and maybe even more impressive, a perfect 99.9 pf defensive grade. He was an absolute
beast. They embarrassed the Bengals and he was at the forefront of all of it. Punching balls,
scoring touchdowns, get him off the ground, making picks. He was ridiculous. You know why he was
good, Welsh? Because the Bengals stink. Purple shirt. Purple shirt. Mm-hmm. Purple shirt.

Dot TV.
We want you to hang out with us at fantasy pros.
Let's go to the moment of the day for you.
Actually, yeah, moment of the day for week three for you.
Cam Scataboo backflip into his Hawaiian celebration.
That was a lot of fun.
I mean, I think the Steelers being able to punch out the ball four times was a lot.
of fun as well. I would like to win by more than one touchdown at the end of the game when you're
plus four in the turnover margin, but I'll take what I can get. And speaking of Aaron Rogers,
I got a little revenge on Dredes this weekend because I beat her in the out of bounds league
while she was sending Welsh Aaron Rogers gifts in his Steelers uniforms this offseason. So got a little
revenge there. But thank you for the community subject. How do you feel about the Ireland game
coming up for the
8.30 in the morning for me, Joe.
That game is 8.30 in the morning.
I'm going to be angry.
I assume you're just not going to bed.
I assume you're just going to stay out.
I'm going to go to bed at nine.
Since I'm our defensive guru now,
I have horrifically bad breaking news.
Nick Bosa is believed to have torn an ACL
according to Ian Rappaport and is out for the year.
Oh, God.
That sucks, man.
Sorry, Welsh.
Let's take another question.
here. Let's go to
Frustrated Duck, Henderson or
Mason rest of season, Boggs. Who would you rather have?
I'm still going to be Henderson on this
one. I just, I cannot believe
that the
Patriots don't go to Henderson more
after everybody fumbled
this week. Yeah, they put Gibson
and after it and he thought that was
everybody fumbled, everybody fumbled except for
Henderson. So I feel like it has to be Henderson.
I still think Henderson is better back,
but Mason is in the better scenario right
now. So that makes it
close, but I'm still going to say Henderson.
That's Mason for me, by the way.
I'm going to go. I think this is clearly Mason.
I'm going to break the tie. I'll, I'll tell you this.
Rest of season, I still, the trivia on Henderson
explosiveness, like he could be Jemir Gibbs.
Like, that's what he could be fantasy wise.
He could even be like Jordan Mason.
Wouldn't that be crazy? He could be a boat. He could be a boat.
He could be.
My big moment was obviously the big fella, Jordan Davis, the scoop and the score,
18 miles an hour. Just running down the boat.
Hey, boy was huffin.
He was, you know what?
Credit to him.
He was huffing still in the postgame interview.
They interviewed him like five minutes after the game.
And he was like, and I lost some weight.
So I made sure that I get it.
It sounded like the Muhammad Ali of the end of the fight.
And I used to, and I told Joe Frazier,
and I was going to whoop his ass.
And then I did.
What an incredible moment, too.
That was very much like college football,
because that was the biggest backdoor cover of backdoor covers.
The Eagles were minus three and a half.
No, it wasn't.
And I could tell you what was.
It was Oklahoma safety this weekend to clear my,
six and a half.
I'm an NFL,
but that's why I said.
It's literally like college.
It's like college.
You get those moments in college and that's what that was.
It was blocked.
Big Man.
If that's like,
I don't know.
I mean,
I think anybody's trying to return that,
but at the same time,
like that was incredible.
That was incredible.
All right.
We got a lot of questions here about Chase Brown.
So let's talk about him
before I move on to the next segment.
Boggs,
you have any thoughts on Chase Brown.
Like,
I'm just holding right now.
There's not much else we can do.
You know,
you can't sell them off for pieces.
I think the,
this was just a really terrible match
for Jake Browning, right? To go into Minnesota, the blitz heaviest team in the league in your first
start this season and, you know, on the road with the crazy crowd and everything, it just, it all went
to garbage really fast for the Bengals. I don't think they'll have a week this bad offensively for
the rest of the year. Are they behind the eight ball now without Joe Burrow? Of course. But I don't think
it's going to get this bad again for the rest of the season. So I'm not too panicky on.
Brown, even though the whole Bengals offense lost value across the board.
I'm going to throw, I'm going to do a hot take.
I don't do a lot of hot takes.
I'm going to get my inner D bro in here.
I think I'm going to take Juckkins over Chase Brown rest of season.
I don't know.
You know what?
I don't even know if that's a hot take.
The only way that's a hot take is if, uh, is if Jutkins gets suspended at this
point.
Yeah, it's got to be like four games, not even two.
Yeah, that would have to be that.
It would have to be a four game suspension, I think for it to matter.
Browning's bad.
Browning's bad.
But that offensive line was.
was insanely bad.
I mean,
Browning had about 1.5 seconds
to think before he had someone in his face.
They're going to blitz the ever-living crap out of Browning
every single game because he doesn't have enough time to think to go to chase.
All he does is throw to Noah Fant or a tight end for two yards every single time.
And it leaves app.
Like the play,
I mean,
I had some bets in this game and on the Bengals.
The idea that they called it in the broadcast,
every single first down,
they ran the ball up with Chase Brown.
And about the fourth time where they lost a yard,
they were like, at some point they're going to have to realize this isn't going to work.
And they stubbornly did it every single time.
They can't get him together.
I'm legitimately worried about Chase Brown.
Like he's going to have some games because he is a talented back,
but they're without Burrow for the majority of this season.
Their offensive line stinks.
They have absolutely no time.
If it's a tough defensive line matchup, I don't know.
I think it's going to be hard pressed to see Chase Brown inside of a lot
a top 15 R.B. ranks rest of season and maybe even 20 just with how this offense looks.
You hate to see it. You hate to see the Bengals struggle.
Trey Benson or Chase Brown real quick. Who do you want rest of season?
It's still Chase Brown for me.
Man, I guess I'll go with Chase Brown because the Cardinals are going to be annoying with
like Demarcato and stuff, but it might be Trey Benson. Like I think that's the territory.
I think he belongs with them. Yeah, I think it's close, but I'm still going to go Chase Brown.
I want to shout out to our boy Barrow who just re-subed as well.
Appreciate your barrow.
Hey, it's us, the Jonas Brothers, and guess what?
We have some big news.
What's the news?
Huge news.
We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas.
We invented a podcast?
Well, we didn't invent it.
We just contributed to a...
We're the first people to do podcasts.
Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there.
But this one's extra special.
So how do we actually come up with a name, Hey Jonas, guys?
I honestly don't remember.
I think it was on a call about what we should call it.
And, well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers.
This is how you guys remember it going down?
Yes.
I have a very different memory of this.
We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, people could call in and say, hey, Jonas.
And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.
But thanks for remembering that, guys.
Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your
podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it. Another podcast from some SNL late night comedy
guy, not quite. Unhumor me with Robert Smygel and friends. Me and hilarious guests from Bob
Odenkirk to David Letterman help make you funnier. This week, my guest, SNL's Mikey Day and
head writer Streeter Seidel help an a cappella band with their between songs banter. Where does your
group perform? We do some retirement homes. Those people are starving for banter. Listen to humor me with
Robert Smygel and Friends on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Hey, I'm Jared Adano.
You might know me as that loud guy who yells out, help on the internet.
Help!
Somebody!
Please!
But there's so much more to me than that.
I'm an actor.
I'm a comedian.
And recently, I've become quite the helper myself.
And on my new podcast, Hope from a Hypocrite, I'll be changing lives, helping people in need with my sage advice and thoughtful solutions.
Spike, I'm a comedian.
I'm not qualified to give good advice.
Join me and my comedian friends as we riff, rant,
recommend some of the most legally dubious advice known to man.
If I'm calling you, even if you're on your phone,
let it ring twice.
One ring is too scary.
Oh, cream of chicken suit.
Hey, cream.
Cream a chicken suit.
This is Help from a Hypocrite,
the worst advice from the dumbest people you know.
Listen to Help from a Hypocrite as part of the Mike Coutura Podcast Network
available on the IFAR Radio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcasts.
All right, so let's play a little factor fiction.
Lightning Round here.
I'm going to throw out a statement.
You tell me if it's factor fiction.
And in like, you know, 10 seconds,
you can give me a little bit of why.
But not, not like, I don't want a Welsh Judkins like a response here on this.
Yeah, I have no other.
These aren't judges.
You've got nothing left.
The tank is empty.
All the love is for Junctus.
I got nothing left.
All right.
Luther Bird and Trey Tucker and Tyquan Thornton.
off the waiver wire are fools gold fact or fiction welsh
oh dang it um i'm going to say
fact uh i'm not giving you the proper time i do think like
if dj morgates traded luther burton looks fantastic by the way tycoon thornton
is an absolute dude i kind of think he's real i don't buy the tray tucker stuff
so i guess if i have to use him as a group i'm going to say uh this is fools gold
i think tucker has the most staying power here because he's on the field more than
the other guys. But Tyquoan Thornton, they're going to get two guys back. And yeah, I'm not into it.
Pass. Yeah. And Burton's tough because he's not on the field a lot. 17 snaps yesterday.
Yeah. I mean, maybe that grows over time. But I think a lot of people, especially this week with the
CD Lamb News and, you know, the Mike Evan situation and Terry McLaren too, everyone's going to be
running to the waiver wire. And I think they're going to be look at a guys like that instead of
look at a guys like Torrey Horton. I think Horton's a guy that I would much rather have.
But also like Troy Franklin was a big disappointment. Like look at the usage he had in week
two and then it just disappeared. So like you might take that over. That's not shocking because
they've shown us that before. They've teased that before. They've teased that before last week. So
that's why I didn't chase that at all last week. But Horton's a guy that I've added everywhere
two weeks ago because I was a big fan of him for Dynasty leagues. I just thought,
hey, there's a path for him. And any other league this past weekend where he was out there,
I just picked him up before the games just to see. I try to save myself a couple bucks. You know
was so weird too.
Elyke A. O Manor, over 50% rostered on Sleeper, but on Yahoo!
Rostered.
What the hell is happening on Yahoo Leagues?
What is going on?
People give up.
In week three?
In week two, they give up.
I think people just like drafting.
Or they're just like, or is it just like a lot of 10 team leagues, I guess?
Or everything's 10 teams, two wide receivers, so nobody cares.
Like, it's just, I don't know.
It drives me crazy, man.
I don't like it.
All right.
Next one, Texans and 0 and 3 are done.
Factor fiction in this division.
Box.
Fact.
Yeah.
I think you're out at 0 and 3.
I'll say this.
The defense is still really good.
That could keep them in it.
But starting 0 and 3 is a pretty bad signal everywhere.
Yep.
How about you, Walsh?
Yep.
Fact.
I don't have any good prospects for this team.
It's going to be Woody Mark's time soon.
We're going to get some fantasy production out of these other guys.
But this team looks lost.
Stroud looks lost.
So how many teams are winless right now?
We've got the Texans are winless, right?
Dolphins.
We've dolphins.
I'm looking at a jet.
Everyone who plays in New York.
Yeah.
Texans.
Saints.
And Giants.
So we have six teams.
How brutal is that?
Both New York teams winless.
And it's almost yet a September.
Unbelievable.
All right.
Ricky Pearsall will finish as a wide receiver one in 2025.
Welsh factor fiction.
Ooh.
I'm going to say fiction because I don't think he's going to be a top 12.
but I think he's going to be a top 15 wide receiver.
Like Purdy's about to be back.
So just misses it.
Yeah,
but here's the problem.
Jennings is a huge pain in the ass to Pearsall
because like he's a really,
like he's just a sneaky guy.
He just finds open seams and zones and stuff like that.
I don't think he's in a miss much time.
He'll be back.
Kittles also going to be back.
But Pearsall clearly like if you didn't know,
he's a massively talented wide receiver.
He made Mac Jones look goodish yesterday and Purdy should be back.
So top 12,
no.
Top 15.
I do think.
I think he belongs in the teens of ranks
or consideration of that
every single week moving forward.
Bogman?
What do you think?
He's going to be that book,
all my friends are dead by the end of the season.
George Kittles already hurt.
CMC had, what, 48 touches yesterday
or whatever ridiculous number it was.
And Juan Jennings can't stay on the field.
Like, everybody's going to be hurt.
Yeah, I think he finishes like wide receiver 11, 12.
All right.
Next one here,
the Bucks offense can stay afloat without Mike Evans.
It's one thing that I have Godwin.
I know Egbuka is awesome, but without Mike Evans, too, that's kind of the special sauce there.
Now, credit to Baker Mayfield, he's had three comeback wins already.
Fact or fiction, the Bucks can stay afloat.
Let's say Mike Evans misses significant time, Boggs, what do you think?
Fact.
Egbuka is the man.
Egbuka is awesome.
They're going to get Chris Godwin back as well.
And Bucky had also, I think it was 30 touches yesterday.
It was an insane amount.
So if they can keep handing the ball to Bucky, Baker keeps coming through in the clutch.
Yeah, this offense can stay a well-oiled machine specifically when they get Chris Godwin back.
Big fact.
This is absolutely big fact.
Yeah, I mean, if there's a serious injury with Evans and Godwin is looking like he's pacing out to play this week, that's huge.
I think Emeka is just, he already looks so incredible.
I could do, I feel like I would do the same Jenkins thing for.
He just looked so good there.
It is.
Like, you don't want to get too great.
In this league.
In this league.
Ameca, Buka, he makes incredible catch on the sideline.
He finds those open routes.
Like, he looks like a pro.
He looks like a three or four year in season veteran.
Yeah.
All right.
Last one here.
Factor fiction.
Russell Wilson is cooked.
That's the last game.
We're going to see him start for the Giants last night.
Welsh.
I'm going to say fiction because I think they're stubborn enough to give him like one or two more.
But there was a lot of camera pans to dart last night.
Not going to lie.
A lot of camera pans.
pens there, but he makes enough dumb decisions that keeps them out of it. I think I, we said this
like a couple weeks ago. We were talking about when would Dart start. I think it's around like
week six, week six or seven. I'm going to kind of hold to that. I don't know when their by weeks are,
but I think he will start next week. Cue the Rapaport report that Jackson Dart will be starting
in week for it. Yeah, it will probably happen right after we finish reporting. So then everybody will
make comments about it. Well, honestly, this is probably the last week because they play the Los Angeles
chargers this week and they're going to get their ass handed to.
They're such a better football team than the Giants are.
And then after that, they play the New Orleans Saints.
So if you want to, if you want to get DART in there early, the only problem is the
following week is the Eagles.
So that's kind of tough.
But look, by then your season's over, you might as well start evaluating people.
Yeah, I think that's it.
And I think you have to do it fast if you're Brian Dable because you may only get
this season to prove that DART is worth the pick, right?
Or that you're worth your job.
Right.
Like if you come back and you win, if you upset the Eagles, right, that might
save you your job because you're going to
you're going to lose to the chargers.
Maybe you can beat the Saints, right?
You throw a dart out there. He looks good.
Let's say he can beat the Saints.
Then you come around if you could possibly pull off an upset against the
Philadelphia Eagles. And then you win a couple games.
You finish 500?
There's reason to believe maybe there's something happening here.
Do you think he starts this week then?
You think Jackson Dart starts this week?
I think James Winston should start this week.
I'll be honest with you.
I just can't run Russell Wilson out there anymore.
I just, I mean, it's just, he was good against the Cowboys.
Was he good or did those 50-50 balls come down a little bit more, 50-149 on the other side?
Like, that's the thing.
And at the end of the game, he was bad.
When he needed to be good at the end, he was bad.
I agree.
I don't think Russell Wilson is very good anymore.
Caleb Williams looked like Peyton Manning this week against the Cowboys defense.
I don't think the day ball does it this week.
All right.
Let's get the 3-1-1 contest.
Now, do we have anything outstanding?
Still left to go?
Yes.
I do have one more play.
are left from last week to go here.
So I've got James and Williams still to go.
But two of us had Jordan Mason and one of us got Bogman had Jonathan Taylor.
So we all got the 100 yard rusher.
Nobody got a 300 yard passer.
Maybe I'll get a 100 yard receiver, but you guys did not get pickings or Justin Jefferson,
unfortunately.
So that puts the tally as of now.
Three for me, one for Welsh, one for Bogman, ironically, in the 3-1-1 contest.
So we're going to pick a 300-yard rusher for week four.
a 300-yard passer for a week.
It'd be a nice to have a 300-yard rusher.
Maybe a gosh.
A 300-yard passer for a week for,
a 100-yard rusher and 100-yard receiver.
I know the Brown's defense played really well this week
and did a really good job against Jordan Love,
but they're going to Detroit next week.
And in Detroit, Jared Goff is just different.
So I'm going to take Jared Goff and I'm on Ross St. Brown,
that duo once again that got me on the board two weeks ago.
And I'm going to take J.K. Dobbins against the Cincinnati Bengals
to go for 100 yards rushing.
That's my 100-yard rusher there,
the week. Welsh, what's your 3-1-1 predictions for week four?
All right. I got to get up on this board a little bit more.
The Cowboys secondary, you said, made Caleb Williams look like Joe Montana.
So I think Jordan Love is going to be slinging the crap out of the ball, and he's going
to look like Tom Brady out there. So Jordan Love versus Dallas, that's going to be my pick,
even though they don't even know who the hell they're going to throw to, just a bunch of sling it up,
couple tight-ins, couple wicks and backup wide receivers. We're still going to go with Love versus Dallas
because it's so bad.
Christian McCaffrey is going to be my running back going up against the Jags.
They give him, as mentioned, 45 to 48 touches per game.
So Christian McCaffrey is going to have all the opportunities.
They have been throwing the ball at a ridiculous clip this year to McCaffrey.
This is going to be the game.
I think it sticks on the ground a little bit and he'll break a big one.
And then for my wide receiver, I'm actually going to go on the Thursday night game,
J.S.N, one of the top targets in all the NFL.
The Cardinals gave up over 100 to Piracall.
JASN is the number one targeted player with a bullet as by,
would say for the Seahawks.
So I think this is going to be a JASN 100 yard receiver, McCaffrey 100 runner, and Jordan Love,
300-yard passer.
All right.
It would be nice to have a bounce back for Jordan Love, that's for sure.
All right, Boggs, 3-1-1 for week four.
What do you have?
Let's go with Bo Nix versus Cincinnati.
And his coach, Sean Peyton, said, just keep slinging it.
Just keep slinging it.
I think they do that against the Bengals.
They should have the ball for most of that game as well.
For my 100-yard rusher, let's go with Omarian Han.
against the New York Giants.
The Giants Rundee, not very good at all.
And like we said, O'Marian Hampton's going to get all the touches there.
I mean, they have Hassan Haskins.
They're probably going to, you know, sign Vidal back.
So it's going to be ugly there.
It's going to be all Amerian Hampton.
And then Roma Dunzee against the Raiders.
I mean, the Raiders' offense has been playing pretty well here.
Gino's been throwing the ball, you know, around three touchdowns,
Trey Tucker last week.
I think Brock Bowers a little more healthy with this knee thing next week as well.
So I expect a little bit more of a back and forth.
And I highly doubt that Caleb Williams doesn't get sacked against Bax Crosby and
company like he did against Dallas.
So a little more back and forth this week.
I think that could be a nice shootout game.
By the way, Elto in the comments, totally right.
I definitely disappointed the masses.
When I set up the 100-yard rusher, I didn't take Judkins.
And I probably really should have considered doing that.
You know what?
I hope he goes off now.
Now I really want to do it.
but it's just that Jags line up for McCaffrey with the touches is ridiculous.
But to your point, Judkins is also a great bet.
That's, I kind of want to take it, but I'm not going to take it.
All right.
