"Say to see justin fields but to see the two headed monster in the backfield damian williams along with virginia tech and kansas product khalil. Herbert toting iraq should be an interesting game here in our backyard is the raiders could potentially come back to earth. And we'll see exactly what the bears have in their supposed franchise quarterback. But you know what pain when you look at the nfc. North one of the bears bitter rivals in that division. We know their franchise quarterback is and it's the green bay packers going out on the road to take on the cincinnati bengals green bay field goal favorite at fan duel sportsbook. This total has been on the climb from his lowest forty eight and a half up to fifty one and a half both defenses rank top five and fewest yards per attempt common denominator. They both played and partly why their numbers have been. This year is indeed the pittsburgh steelers. You look at zack taylor. Four twenty four one straight up his first twenty nine games as head coach suddenly experiencing a touch of prosperity five and two over the last seven games and when you look at the cincinnati bengals. We saw glimpses of what this offense could be in the second half last thursday night against the jacksonville. Jaguars joe borough looking much more comfortable stepping into throws. This is a guy who finished seventeen of twenty for two hundred fifty three yards and two touchdowns in that comeback against jacksonville. He's got a task at hand against the green bay defense. That may be living a little bit on reputation. The bengals appear to be a team that can have some success on paper with the aerial salt. I agree and i think there's some uncertainty with how that side of the ball will play out from game script perspective zach. Taylor's been really run heavy especially early downs. Fifty five percent run on first down. You wonder if that changes of joe mixing doesn't play. I would keep an eye on. Today's practice report there. He miss yesterday. It sounds like it's really trending towards being extremely iffy and him. Not being out there. But today is telling and i know. Joe mixing is really tough so watch that injury report. Green bay hasn't been to stop the run and on first down even worse twenty-first and run stop efficiency. The problem is if it's not joe mixing in it's rhine. You'd hope jack. Taylor doesn't just run for the sake of running. Prn last season had a rushing success rate nine percent below average you would think with t higgins looking like go for sunday and jaya alexander down kevin king also working his way back from a concussion that this would be you kind of alluded to a job. Joe borough passing game script. You would think that that is is what's going to be written here so to speak really good job. Pushing the ball downfield. Even though he had some issues early in the season with some uncertainty stepping into throws. And it's to be expected. I mean major knee surgery. The interior of the offensive line is great but nine point two yards per pass attempt right now. I think he probably will rain. Some of that in against the packers because they play this shell secondary designed to keep everything in front. But that'd be the game lamb for me attack packer. Secondary that's played jameis winston golfing weather. Jimmy jean big bannon is somehow twentieth and defense pass efficiency ins now playing without its best corner and one of the league's best corners. Kenny clarke has to be a disruptor for the packers defense to have a little bit of a chance. He's been coming on a little bit. Started slow now tied for the fourth most pressures among interior. Linemen that is again where the bengals are most vulnerable. You have trae hopkins the bengals starting center. He is thirtieth in pass blocking great among qualifiers. He's also dealing with an injury. The bengals to starting guards. Spain in shula feel. Oh they're both dealing with some injuries as well in both great outside the top fifty in pass blocking among guards jackson carmine. The kid from clemson that they drafted this year. Hasn't fared really much better at all. When they've put him in that spot because he was overdrafted is to be the yes he he was really overdrafted. That was a prop that we lost. Don't get me started and it was interesting right. You like go out early in the second round and draft a guy that nobody had going really in the first like three plus rounds and you're kicking him inside the guard. when he played left tackle. It was just really a a big reach. I understand they wanted to address the offensive line. But only the raiders are supposed to make moves like that paint overdraft from alabama ohio state and clemson two rounds earlier than anybody else had projected. That is very true. So you know when you look at some of the issues right. The one smith brothers out the other one is battling an injury and his questionable. For this game. It's gotta be on kenny clark. To provide some of that that russian coming from their interior probably a little bit helpful. So he's got a dominate that matchup for the packers defense to you know really have a chance here. I think now. What's interesting is the line movement in this in this total and it would kind of depict the game script being a quick pass attack for borough lot of empty sets. This was actually a a total todd that that we looked at and we were hoping to go over if it opened forty eight but first thing monday the total was forty nine and a half now a well respected better. Did steam this thing up. Shot through the key of fifty one route the fifty one and a half fifty two right. Now i'll be candid. What gave us hesitation at forty nine and a half was the pace. Cincinnati's thirty first in neutral situation paste their thirty first and first half pace. Green bay's twenty-seventh in first-half pace in neutral situations both teams are below average. Pass rate so..

"I know i was going to be in pittsburgh for the game and i was looking at hotels earlier this week and man i mean. You're talking half a k. To to to stay in pittsburgh i to to find d different lodging not staying in a hotel so i think Steelers fans will be up there. Be packed and it should be a pretty fun. Environment will hopefully. It's not a rental car. All no. I'm not staying in a rental car. Little airbnb apartment action. It is better. I don't need two bedrooms right. My wife and i don't need the one but you know what we what will be in the other room for you. Know what apple watch tv or whatever. I go ahead jeffrey. Y- wins the bengals about the bengals trying kind of arriving on the scene here again. We're how much faith do. You have an zac taylor. I know he took over when when marvin lewis was kind of in one of his down stretches by he has not had really a good season at all. What have you seen in him. What do you think of zac taylor. So far is the coach. Yeah seven twenty. Six and one is what i see in in. You know that whether it's fair not and you know. I know there are some reasons behind that. They're not just excuses. They're reasons why he struggled. Some was an older roster that he inherited but the bottom line is is when you win seven games in two years in two games. That's what you get. And you know. I think some bengals fans adam now. I'm leaning pittsburgh this week and some bengals fans might get on me for that. But zac taylor's one fifteen and one on the wrote that's insane and that's what we're talking about on the road so you expect me to pick against mike tomlin who's never had a losing season the steelers who haven't lost at home to the bengals since twenty fifteen. Oh and by the way just lost. Andy dalton justin fields in the bears on the road last week. So there's a lot that the bengals have to prove in it. Does it starts with jack taylor. Because i think they have it right at quarterback. I think they have some really really good weapons. Joe mixing. jomar chase t higgins. Maybe we'll see a write. These dinged up right now. But done it tyler boyd. Certainly i can't believe i'm on a pittsburgh podcast and i waited that long i think is the best of the receivers to be honest with you and in so yeah i think i think that they especially offensively like it's one thing if the bengals were lost last week and put up thirty three point five minutes to go in the game. That can't happen on sunday. I mean they. They better be much closer. That thirty number three number that they were or going down the stretch in the fourth quarter of heinz field on sunday. Wow sounds like things were saying about the steelers right now. Yeah offense up. There hasn't looked much better. That's for sure could could be a low scoring affair. I assume on sunday but so hopefully a little bit more entertaining. Maybe pirates reds type score. That's my prediction. One root for playing canadian football. We'll get that one point in what's any who So kind of one of the things that can dominate at around the draft talk who of course With the bengals was whether or not they take. Joe boroughs. Budding jomar chaser. They take the big time. Oh tackle oregon in place. You'll of course it take chase and how's that kind of worked out so far. The old line been able to stick together. Of course i believe what jackson carmen out of clemson tackle. They went within the second round so they ended up getting Their they're often lime. But has it worked out the right way or is is doing enough to kind of prove that they made the right pick. I think so. You know unfortunately burrows taking a ton of hits over the first two weeks so it's easy to point to the offensive line but you know. Some of those hits aren't offensive. Line based joe mixing missed a couple of blocks that got joe. Just pummeled crashed. A receiver didn't stop for a screen. So there have been protection issues. Not necessarily just offensive line issues. In the tackles have been good in john williams and riley wreath. So i think that's part of it too when you talk about like jackson carmen. For example he was attacked at clemson. In part of the reason he didn't start the year is because he's trying to get used to life at right guard which if they had taken penny soul that might have been. His destination said that before the traffic that he might end up playing guard if they draft fifth overall as a rookie and People laughed at me. But i think that's what would have happened. In ultimately they thought jomar a was the better pick and so far. It looks like that now. He had some drivers in preseason in training camp and rookie minicamp and i wrote about it and covered it and then the the lights came on games mattered. And the dudes been balling out. He said a rookie record for the most receiving yards in debut. Hundred one yards five receptions in touchdown against the vikings and then he was open. I've ton on sunday last sunday against the bears and for one reason or another he only had two receptions wasn't targeted a lot but had a forty two yard touchdown so back back games at the touchdown and i think he's. He's going to be the number one receiver on this team. I'm used twenty one years old. He he's putting up those numbers and he hadn't played a game up until week one again. That mattered since january. I believe it was thirteen. Twenty twenty against clemson that national championship game. So i think tomorrow is gonna be a damn good receiver. And he's an instant threat and i don't think the bengals regret that at all where. I was critical of them. Because i i like the idea of bringing young receiver like that that can grow. With joe borough alongside higgins and boyd. They probably should have spent more money on the offensive line free agency. 'cause joe been sakhnin times. He's been Sixteen times two games..

"I think he came. Back from injury. Suffered but yet Definitely madison pick them less on petra. Bon chris evans on the bengals. You see the workload. Joel nixon's getting I think it's getting over. Eighty eighty five percent of the teams touches. He's top three in the nfl rushing yardage so far. A joe mixing was doing great. We all know his injury. History chris evans rookie outta michigan. Good all purpose back. And i think if joe mixing does go down he would be the main beneficiary not so much appear on officer. The veteran kind of presence. They've had for years ago and again those guys. Yeah couple of bucks not even. I'm gonna have a couple of guys are that are just you know steamers for sure Alice gallons of from the seahawks. You saw She was his name. He's on go down obviously Chris carson's have injury history as well. So it's kind of one of those things. If you have chris carson counter anka few alex columns kerryon johnson. Forty niners I was the main. They always had injury issues. It seems like his like what mitchell came out. one play. they put in hasty hasty hurt. It put in sermons Cussin' one play. I think the play each so you know. Obviously you're i know they have a motion. I are jeff wilson junior in iowa on johnson without on the squad expected to be you know expedite the press. And he's not terrible back when he's when he's healthy kerryon johnson. You know we don't know the severity of mitchell's injury. Obviously some of the concussion protocol protocol. I think already ruled hasty alley a couple of weeks. O obviously monitoring choice but still carry on zero risk and you could get a higher war with that san francisco starting running away and then look out. They are bringing in a couple of names the marine in triumph. I'm blanking out on who they are but again i don't think they bring him in. They may not be active since just signed. Carry on but keep an eye out on l. banfield. We'll definitely keep you posted on instagram facebook and twitter so Couple of other guys. You know again probably not available. But i'm still gonna name zach mosque devon single terry single-tier looks like you know had the lead by little bit. But you saw zach moss. Come in and get two touchdowns if one goes down other ones value cannibals. Bullets will definitely make a move on them. James white. you've seen twelve catches in two games on thirteen targets. So he's back to the fantasy weapon that he was. Tom brady so definitely. We told you about him last week. Definitely made sure to get him latavius. Marianne tyson williams both baltimore running back so he saw them both pretty solid again on upset win over the chiefs of either of them are available. Definitely snag when a dumb. I got two hundred if name your boy. But she didn't. Jd mckissick arabs. Always talking about him. He's roughly thirty five percent owned. Yeah you should be available. After the huge thursday night game he had. So y'all say by naming him. I wanna see wimmer game with a talent anneke. Because fitzpatrick he wasn't in a game plan. No heineke smith's more. Asthma more more conservative. So i actually like it a lot to be have gibson..

"Competent end. And i know line has changed since you know earlier in the week but i really like cincinnati getting two and a half against chicago I was a bit skeptical of joe borough heading into the season. I mean so much of that was just the buzz around that training camp and obviously you're marchese drops on. He's not gonna drop every pass. Obviously but we get to this point and now he looks outstanding. I mean team looked so good and they had such a clear plan in place. And there's this you know stat being thrown around of passing over expectation right now and how the bengals were laughing it after being. You know the packer in the upper echelon last season. Well it's because. Joe mixing is now an absolute workhorse and feature back on three levels and that it it just makes sense from the perspective that joe coming back from significant knee injury and i feel like so much of this line is baked into this history that we believe that the bears defense is incredible. And i just look at it from this past weekend where there's a minute and the weapon left on the clock. We're trying to figure out. Who's zack taylor is. And he finally showed us. There was a pastor t higgins. Pass joe mix in the past tyler. Board in the fifty yard touchdown to jamarcus no timeouts in joe boroughs pocket. And he was still able to convert the touchdown which almost put the game away at that point and really separated them so to me what we're getting from. The bengals is like their vision lining up with their play in terms of adding all these players. And i just think that they have a great shot this week in to cover that josh. You mentioned cincinnati one of the three hundred dogs that you like nick and i've talked about that game a little bit on our show. Cincinnati plus three minus twenty was about fi- y like cincinnati. Yeah both want cincinnati and the game. Somehow so it's either three which was available earlier in the week minus twenty. Which i have we talked about teasing them up at two and a half three and seven so i. I think we're all kind of on the same that we definitely don't want chicago. Let's put it that way. Never never should never trumpers never chicago. Second peel comes in sin. We're all exactly. But i know you mentioned two other underdogs but obviously a lot together so cincinnati. I think you get disagreement from from this panel on that one underdog number two is who. Let's keep it rolling here. How about a carolina..

"Bengals. Podcast with adam pacman jones. Of course you hear sally on sirius. Xm longtime broadcaster a number of different outlets and of course a former bengal of if this if this offense and you get one hundred fifty yards joe mixing on the ground and in the air. On sunday we talked about jomar. Chason the impact. He had to me if these weapons are clicking on all cylinders they obviously still have to answer some questions on the offensive line but they strike me as a very difficult team to prepare for. Things are clicking near the opposite defensive coordinator. Where are you starting in game planning for this team. I think you've got to start with the run game The offense really the bengals eight. That's going to be a consistent thing every week. Joe mixing is a fundamental part of what they do. Offensively with that is clicking. Then you're going to get the single coverage on the outside with marci. That's why he was able to get fifty yards down to and win. Get a touchdown. The big pass plays are gonna be there unlike last year if we can run the football. I think those those shot lays down the field. They're talented at wide receiver. That they're gonna win if they get single coverage on the outside defensively particularly this week against the bears it starts with stopping the hometown native David montgomery this guy breaks tackles. He's averaging six point eight yards per carry last week in the game against the rams you gotta stop him because i think he's he's better than advertise And i think they're finding out that consistently when they give him the ball. Good things happen to the bears office. Playing the bears would would you rather and we're going to see some justin fields. The rams did but but the the lion share the offense of snaps at quarterback obviously went. To andy dalton. If you're in a room oh do you want to face the known quantity. Who was on your team. Who's got a decades where the film you know what he is. And.

And then all seventy minutes and then all of a sudden the key goes out there with the upright and then he he gets celebrated like he did all by himself. I like that good for him. The biggest. i'll tell you what i like. Berle to chase. That's what i like. You know what else i like. Non vacs cousins to deal He he's out there killing and you remember what chase was dropping balls. He was talking about how he didn't have the white stripe on it. So it's harder to locate and this this and that didn't seem to be a problem yesterday. Joe mixing also had himself a great game. One hundred twenty seven yards one rushing touchdown. What you notice about that gain really stood out to me the most and this is why minnesota actually lost twelve penalties. That's why it's hard to win yards. Keep key penalties as well. We'll jalen. i thought that your lions in the houston texans. We're going to go told it for the number one pick. I really thought that was the race. That was the race for the number one pick.

"This on this show. Numerous times over big favorite diminishing returns little too high. But i like the twelve and a half that the cirque ahead and i'm going to open twelve and a half. I you know. I think this needs to be a big big number. 'cause i the texans look for them to become the texans starting next week and there was nothing about cleveland that made me think they're not elite in that game. I mean for the last couple of years. Problem with cleveland not last year of course but you know been quarterback head coach nine mayfield's pretty good. He did have a bad pass at the end the game. Yeah yeah. I think they still had a shot to win it. But he's pretty good quarterback. That's the fancies a hell of a costume. I mean clearly cleveland's for real. They are going to be here all year yeah. I can't imagine anybody betting houston at eleven and a half. i can't either. Yeah that that's to go up to me. What's next jeffrey. The tie for first place. Cincinnati bengals on the road at the andy dalton led chicago bears. I'm so bitter. Because i had minnesota as as a couple of my survivors. I had minnesota in the contest. Should have been a push. Dalvin cook fumbled it. We'll get to that. But cincinnati with their first september. Winning three seasons under. Taylor let me repeat that cincinnati with their first september. Winning three seasons. Zack taylor they beat minnesota. Twenty seven to twenty four in the first the only game since overtime was instituted in nineteen seventy four since it was instituted in nineteen seventy four for the game to be forced into overtime with zero zero on the clock on joseph fifty plus yard field goal and then the game to be decided with zero zero left in the clock overtime. First time ever since seventy four. I didn't realize that right. Yeah cincinnati was. But here's zac taylor. Zack taylor did everything. He could not to make this happen though they were up. Twenty one seven. The bengals were fourth in one at their own thirty and they go for it. The hell was that joe mixing no gain four players. Twenty one to fourteen in the rally was on and again as i mentioned they had to survive a dalvin. Cook.

Thanks for listening and Be department let's roll on hough. Let's roll on just money. Says you need to get mike daniels back on. Yeah we'll try. His representation has been awesome to us by the way. So we will We will try and do what we can on that front continuing on the bengals. Vikings week one News year bengals announced their team captains. This was yesterday as well. Yes it was and they announced the seven players. Job bro tyler boy. Joe mixing a new one. Jessie bates von bell. Sam hubbard kevin huber. Now the to that kind of stand out to me in that. I will make the most comments on would be joe mixing and jessie bates mixing stands out to me. Because think back a handful. And i wanna go back in rehash you know ugly instances in the past from anybody but you know when you think back to joe mixing in the as a prospect coming out of the draft. There was kind of this other story that followed him. And i think we all know the deal. We don't need to go into the details there. you know there were just some off. Field concerns with joe mixing. He has been nothing but essentially a model citizen since entering the nfl and being with the cincinnati bengals has asserted himself as a team leader. So when i saw his name at the captain level unfortunately you know. I did think of an ugly situation years back but it also made me really proud as someone who covers the bangles a fan of the team a really proud of a guy like joe mixing who has really kind of turn things around from that ugly incident and really matured and is now a team captain of the team so kudos to him on being one of the seven captains of the team and then you look at jessie bates. That's an interesting situation because the bengals in he apparently are in a contract stalemates as contracts. Donate at this point in time they have a few days are not They haven't agree to a long term deal. Jessie bates now team captain. He's also been a big part of their marketing endeavors. That they've been really pushing out with new jersey's in everything and so he is a A captain there and you see the ones last year borough. Bell huber were captains along with Sean williams aj green. Geo bernard josh buying so Interesting stuff there but That's those are the seven captains right there. Borough boyd mixing bates bell hubbard and huber. So congratulations to those seven and got is at our In a lot of a lot of different ways. They are deserving of that designation. Unusually quarterback is the the team captain there so speaking of the team captains speaking of joe. Borough there is a a feature. That is going to be aired. I believe it's going to be on sportscenter on sunday so it it's an interview with him Talking with espn. But basically there's more talk of. Hey we have high goals as a team in terms of level of success that we want to attain and then of course the knee injury where he's at mentally where he's at physically with all of that and there were a couple of quotes that he sent out with Was with dan graziano in it was. Espn so this is probably going to be on. The full interview will be on Yes fiene and and i think their you know their website and all all kinds of different outlets but quote. None was the answer when graziano asked him if he had any concerns about his surgically repaired. left knee so quote. It shouldn't affect me at all. Meaning the knee brace. I don't really like wearing it because it's big and bulky but i don't think it'll affect my play. I think he also went on to say that. He doesn't think it's something. He will need for the entirety of his career. At least he doesn't hope so because of those reasons. So that's that's joe bureau on there and then of course you see here. The the goals for the season quote make the playoffs win the division. We really need to get better closing out games. Which is definitely something that has plagued the bengals for a while there quote we had leeds in the fourth quarter of something like seven or eight games last year and we ended up losing all of them. We just need to be better down the stretch. So they host the minnesota vikings and look while this seems like a winnable game for the bengals and they very well could win the game especially at being at home. The vikings are are pretty high quality team. That's probably going to be my. My assumption is that it's probably going to be something that is going to resemble a one score game or something that is relatively close so the bengals very well right away could have a contest in which they will need to be able to get over those hurdles of these one possession games week one last year. I mean. I don't wanna remind everybody would happen there last year but that was a one possession game You know the in subsequent weeks after that. The browns a week to the bengals played played. Catch up there but You know that was a one possession game yet. The tie with the eagles. I mean there are a lot of these situations where the bengals were in. These games had late leads all that kind of stuff and they couldn't close it out so that is a big focus which inevitably will lead to the first two points. Joe borough brought up in terms of being competitive winning the division making the playoffs all of that so that is a lie. Some interesting quotes there from joe borough. Now you've got some more quotes from his buddy on offense demar chase. I guess i should've talked about this after the depth chart. But that's okay we're going to get it anyway. Jomar chase speaks on his pre season drops. I i feel for this kid. Because there's nothing quite like trying to get over a mental hurdle and doing the work that you need to do in order to get.

What about the bengals offense to a lot of players like we should be excited about skill position wise heading into the season. I think the two major buys nece offense who weren't mentioned. Joe mixing and tyler boyd with mixing look people the reason why he burned those in past years because giovanni bernard was still there. It's almost like the antonio kipps in situation right now. We're so hyper gifts. And we know he's good. We know we can handle three downs. Judy mckissick still. There is still getting those targets. That's like joe mixing if we took away the mckissick which we did leaving. Go now in tampa so everything. That coaches up told us you know what we've seen from the bengals front office in terms of signing mixing long-term last year not adding anyone other than six or chris evans. Everything tells us mixing is just gonna get said. The reason why people aren't drafting the guys because he got hurt last year. And like yeah. I'm sorry that you drop the mix them i share. It didn't work out for you but to call him more injury prone. Somebody's other running backs. That's not something i agree with. Its kind never miss more than two games in a season this three previous years. So joe mixing just in terms of total volume. I think there to be right there with nausea harris there at the end of the top. Ten running backs tyler boyd. Is someone where. I don't even disagree that he should be the third ranked bengals receiver. Marchese and t higgins. You can put them ahead of void. I have them out of him. The thing is i have all three of them at the bottom of my wide receiver to ranks i. It's hard to see tally boy..

This was twenty four rounds when i did my first dynasty draft It was thirty rounds and we were able to finish it within two hours so this draft was very chaotic and i hope to never be a part of something like that again because i was churches. But let's go right through team so at the quarterback position. I got aaron rodgers yet again. So you know. I i got him. I think in the between the fifth and the sixth round. I think it was something like that. You know. i I had the tenth and eleventh pick now so i had the wrap around the back to back takes which i was happy about. I do like having those back to back. Picks you know you could fill in holes and you know it makes things easier. Of course you just gotta make sure you choose your you know you. Choose your guys wisely. You don't wanna overdraft to reach for somebody but yeah so aaron rodgers. He was my he was my first. Qb that i took off the board. And then i took trevor lawrence the round after that. Because you know i. It's a dynasty leaks. Of course you want to be able to. You know have a backup plan you know once rogers does eventually retire. So i'm gonna go. I'm pulling up the draft board right now. So i got rodgers in the sixth round and then i got trevor lawrence the round after that so yeah So what i did. Was you know my first pick. I took jk dobbins now. I passed up on guys again. You gibson aaron jones nausea harris. Going into that. I was thinking you know. Am i going to want to do like you know two running backs you know. Have to solid running backs. And because there's such an there's an abundance of wide receivers maybe wait and get wide receivers. When it comes back to me you know in the third and fourth round which honestly would not have been a bad decision. I could have got you know some good guys there. But i decided you know let me get. Jk and davante adams fell to me. So i took him in the very beginning of the second round because they had the you know the back to back. So i took him with my first pick in the second round and you know again like devante. Adams was sitting there like i wanted to. I wanted to take him. You know like i could have. I think going the to runningback route. I don't think it would have killed me because again. There's like an abundance of wide receivers. That i have taken but i decided you know what let me. Jk he's twenty two years old and let me get davante adams with my next pick so then after that in the third round i took joe mixing and then i took cd lamb after that now. I it was really tough Joe mixing is i think can be a solid running back you know. And i think he's proven that I think the thing to worry about his consistency running behind that offensive. Line coming back from injuries. So you know but i felt like he for me. I thought he was the best running back available for me. Because you know. Aaron jones najji gibson actor And swift they. Those guys were all taken. So i just felt like nixon was the best running back available for me now if compared to my other dynasty league where i have camerin cler you know. I like that combo a lot. Better than i like. My dobbins and mix combo now again In the first round in all go into more detail about how the rest of the draft. When you know other than my team you know. I thought i was going to have saquon. Jonathan taylor fall to me at least one of them fall to me. But they got picked. You know eight nine you know. I don't at least one of them is gonna fall to me because if one of them did fall to me. There was a possibility. I was gonna go double running backs if it did happen but it unfortunately did not. But i'm still happy with my first pick. So joe mixing cd lamb. You know. I mean having davante adams as my number one and then you have. Cd-rom is a number two and he's a solid number two in the nfl. And i do think he's going to have a really good season again You know well even better season now. The dock is hopefully going to be back for the full season because now he's banged up with the shoulder and you know there is some concerns there but you know the way the cowboys. Make it seem. He's fine but we'll have to see about that but You know getting cd lamb and davante adams was you know that's a good combination. And then you know the fifth and sixth round brand you who. I am very high on this year. I think he's going to have a really good season. And you know getting rogers. I really liked my first six weeks. I think we're really solid. They were very solid I think you know. Obviously my running back duo. It is a little bit of a concern there. But i do think that i do have a solid running back combination. I think it is solid. Though i do understand some people are not that high at least my friends talking about them there at least not that high on joe makes an i. I think mixon's good enough to be an rb to you know but we'll have to see Obviously if there are other guys available i mean. I could've took could've took montgomery. i could've took josh jacobs. But i don't know. I just felt like mixing for me was the What was the best option. you know. maybe. I should've took jacobs. I know but regardless i mean i. I think i have a good team where you know it will. I'll be able to withstand any struggles at joel nixon. may present during the season. But yeah then after that. The seventh and the eighth round took trevor lawrence and then. I took chase edmunds in the beginning of the eighth round. You know again. Like i talked about you know. Rogers obviously not going to play. You know for ten more seasons. Trevor lawrence is going to be my future in this in this dynasty league now. I got justin fields. Like i did in my other league but i you know for some reason i was like you know what. Let me just get trevor lawrence and let him be my future quarterback ones rogers eventually retire. So yeah again. If i mean if trevor lawrence wasn't there you know i probably would've taken justin fields. But because he was there. I was like let me take him. And then chase edmunds. You know it seems like he's going to be the number one running back in arizona. At least that's what it says on the sleeper app. And that's where everything's going now sleeper. And i actually really like sleeper. A lot You know. I think my espn days. Are you know numbered at this point. I mean i might be doing one or two lease on there this year. But it seems like everybody's moving over to sleeper now which..

I don't know Scranton is that in the middle or is that off to the side. it's probably princeton trenton. Probably it's probably princeton. all right. here's the there was a batman marathon on yesterday. Oh chris did you watch the white lotus finale. I have not yet. That'll be our monday night. Show very excited. I think it might be the weirdest show i've ever seen. It's basically pointless yet. Sign house entertaining. Yeah jennifer colin should win all the awards for the show. She is who the spa lady with her. Mom's oh she's differs about. Yeah her on the boat. That is just like an all time television scene. It was really incredible. Okay due to the wide receiver depth. This year. I haven't heard you guys talk zero wide receiver. It seems like everyone agrees that they like wide receivers. That are going later in the draft. So why isn't the strategy of drafting being brought up or implemented more. I went through fantasy prose. Adp to determine what a team could look like. So jamie This draft this mock from brian in princeton is aaron jones seventh overall joe mixon eighteenth swift dobbins or carson thirty first lamar jackson and tj hopkinson. So as i five picks would be aaron. Jones joe mixing. Let's say the andrea swift. Lamar jackson tj hopkinson. And then and then you take jomar chase and then you take robbie anderson and then we'll fuller or something like that. What do you think about that kind of team. The risk involved with that is obviously. You're taking three players at the most volatile position and hoping that they all hit To the level of what. They have in the past like aaron jones as chris talked about. You know what. Joe mixing can do this year and then the andrea swift we know he's battling injury already so You're just you know putting a little bit more dynamite on your problem is that those guys do hit than you're going to be in great shape if those receivers so it's just a matter of you know what you're know. Risk aversion is in the potential reward I don't love it. I've done it a few times. Not necessarily going quarterback in tied in with the fourth and fifth round picks. You know typically. I look for receivers there but It can it can work. Just you know putting a lot of if's on your team. I think the big thing is like i almost pretty much did this in the flex league. I didn't take my first wide receiver until round five. I had jackson to do that. Yeah wide receiver out of yeah wider sears van very inflated and to flex spots also wide receivers more more valuable and i ended up just going for a bunch of upside wide receivers jomar chase will fall army call hartman rondell more jaylen rigor curtis samuel emmanuel sanders peirce campbell. I hope i can get four useful wide..

"The vacuum is a great player and he's great to have on your team for me. It was always more about your team concept and the construction of your team. What happens when i you know. You have frontline guys. Like joe mixing got her in the cj. Who's got hurt. God forbid you burgos gets hurt. Everything goes down the toilet but even if it's just other skill players get hurt. What happens then. Well if you if you're offensive line good you're still going to be at least competitive and if you can bully other teams which is something the bengals so seldom do and i really want them to do it. It's very personal thing. I have to say but you know if the bengals when they were at their best in the years that we've talked about the glory years nineteen eighty eight and two thousand five and twenty fifteen. They bullied other teams up front. That to me is where you want to get back to was will the guy to do that. Maybe maybe not you have that discussion. You look at the tape and you decide whether or not he is the guy that there. But i think the overall point is what you want to do is do as much as you can to get that offensive line. Not just decent but powerful strengthen your team and then if you can do that everything else kind of flows from there and you don't have to draft a player quite the quality of jomar chase in that top five slot. You can have a good receiver. You know like they did. Last year where higgins explodes the second. Rounder tyler boyd. And that's great as jabbar chases and proves to be you. He's gonna be out there in an island whereas as we all know that game starts up front and to me it was worth you know..

"Three forty four forty five forty or in some cases five fifty one as a training camp gets to a start tomorrow. The first practice tony. Let's talk about the offensive side of the ball. One of the more interesting training camp battles. There yeah this is. This is one of the unique times that we've done this where there's not a ton of questions going into this side of the ball but i think there's too i think one is is pretty known at this point jackson carmen the player you drafted to be the guy on this offensive line. Verse xavier's fellow. Who graded out at the fifty nine last year. According to pro football focus the conversation is around protecting. Joe borough we know it's riley reef and jona williams on the outside. We know clinton. Spain was brought back to be a starter. We hope trae hopkins is ready. That other spot is still up for grabs jackson carmen. He ready for a physical and mental standpoint to take that position or do they go with veteran xavier. Sue othello for a couple of games for half the season who knows how long and then the other one for me mo is one that we haven't really talked about much we know. Joe mixing is the guy this year. Who's gonna slot in at number two. Some osh p ryan looked great at times last year. They spent a draft pick on trayvon williams a couple years ago but the talk so far leading up to camp has been that of chris evans what he can do in the passing game how he can fill that. Giovanni bernard loss. So i think the running back in that position on the offensive line or to to keep an eye on and it is interesting and and look. Everything's been dominated. By all the discussion of joe borough getting healthy protecting him giving him guys to throw to running back. You think about it joe. Mixon was not productive and then he got hurt and now the money kicks in right for years. Forty-eight mill and the guy right behind him a franchise mainstay giovanni bernard is no longer here and all of that has slid the background and yet as training camp starts to unfold. I'm with you to me. That really is one of the more position one of the more interesting position groups on the entire team. It starts with joe. We know he's going to make the team we know he's gonna be a tough the depth chart. There's lots of questions about how productive he's going to be once. The season starts but how the dominos fall behind him is is really going to be compelling to watch do you. Do we know what ceiling is at this point. Is chris evans. A higher ceiling guy is trayvon williams at the end of camp the odd man looking out and then there's puka williams the undrafted running back who received rave reviews although he starting camp on the The illness list. He's received rave reviews. The guy that can help on special teams right away and be a difference maker. So i think those those running back position slots that have not been filled. We don't know the depth yet behind. Joe mixon is going to be very interesting. Things play out. I'm a. I'm a little surprised tony that that you didn't bring up the battle for the other quarterback who's not joe borough or brandon allen. You gave me nothing on. Kyle shurmur or eric dungy. You know. I'm really gonna wait until i can get down into the nuts and bolts of camp to see those guys in person before i give my evaluations. This has been the training camp report on. Espn fifteen thirty. The official home of the bengals. Five six thank you. Tony chad brendel is a hosting this show. Tomorrow i am looking forward to being back on thursday robert weintrob from the pro football outsiders. Handbook who is a diehard bengals fan. He always writes the bengals entry.

"Well if you take atoms. You're probably not going to have access to zeke taylor at the very least and maybe hill as well if you take those guys at seven so you do have to keep in mind that you know. It's either one of atoms in hill and one of the later running max gibson mixing or one of the early running backs plus digs hopkins in ridley. I think i would probably go if i could do. Like ridley. and zeke. I think would be the way that i would go. I'm taking taylor. i zeke. Second would take jones third. And i would look for one of those three at seven. I would put my hands together and pray to the fantasy. Gods that antonio gibson joe mixing would make it back to me at fourteen if they're not there. I'm taking the best available wide receiver. Yeah they're gonna is Gone from chelsea's they're seven. I'm taking in a non pr league. you're taking. kelsey over. zeke. Taylor okay from gronk. Three twenty four. Dear mccorkell cameron. Brian and jarrett. Those are quarterbacks on the new england patriots ha nice including mccorkell. That's right yeah for mac full. Pr ten way. His name is mccorkell jones. Yeah that's that's his name right. I i'm not. I don't remember if mccorkell is his first name or middle name racial okay. If his given name was michael jones. I would have questions about him going in the first round. That's how i feel about travis. Kelce as i've already said on this show if his name is really kelce. I'm not interested for pbr. Team redraft how how. How early is too early for kelsey. I have the fifth spot. pr. I'm torn between him. And derrick henry and davante adams. If i take kelsey what do i do after that with my next three or four picks chris questions made for you man yeah. It's kelsey for me if he if if he's available in between hinder cannery. Nevada adams travis. Kelsey as my number three player in pr farm. And i think he's the biggest gap that you can get at any position.

"Blake. Come on now. Well calvin really is going to be running a lie out of downfield rouch and making a lot of big plays in having a lot of hundred games this year. He's just an absolutely smashing. Yeah i feel a little bit but you do. Have the andre hopkins eleventh over all talk to the people a little bit about deandre hopkins and then the only thing that i wanna say before we get out of here is all the packers stuff again. I would one hundred percent have aaron jones and davante adams if we knew aaron rodgers coming back in the first round. No doubt about it. Yeah so Deandre hopkins very similar situation as stefan digs. No no offseason. No training camp. They just jumped right in and week. One it's hit you know and it's big time and i think you have one hundred fifty one yards. I think in that first game and i was way too low on last year. We're not making that same mistake again. I don't think that i'm too high on him. Like based on over correction or anything like that. I think that he belongs at the end of the first round. Aj green isn't scaring me. I hope they get more out of christian kirk but he may not be the player that kinda thought he was coming out of college. Deandre hopkins absolute baller starting to get toward the end of his prime In terms of age. But he's still below thirty. And i think he's got another massive season coming where you can absolutely compete for the league lead in catches and receiving yards and receiving touchdowns only played here that i had as a candidate for my first round with joe mixing And you can get joe mixing still you know Early middle of round two but if they choose their word about expanding. Joe mixes role to all three downs. And this bengals. Offense is as good as i think it's going to be joe mixed in is going to look like a steal in the second round and i know people don't wanna hear it. They've been burned by joe mixing before etc etc. And i know. Joe mixon hasn't exactly done it but man the situation sets up really really well for him. I'm curious what brandon thinks about his offensive line. We'll have him on the pot. Aim have his article up soon in the draft. It's that's the only other borderline guy for me. Any other borderline guys. You want to mention in the first round before we get out of here. Yeah i'll give you a little hint will preview of what brandon thorns. Say about the bengals offense. It ain't going to be good but no i. I totally get like on paper betting on this bengals offense. I mean they're gonna run a lot of plays that they should throw the ball lot in all signs really all signs point toward joe mixing filling a true workhorse belco role and he's been the league for a while now really you know. He hasn't done he's done it in spurts. He had won a couple of years ago in the in the back out the final eight games. He led the nfl in In rushing yards and he showed he could handle a lot of you know a huge huge workloads for a full half of a season. But he just hasn't done it for a full season but yeah A lotta a lotta first. Round caliber picks i think in the second round. It's a really strong. Like top twenty five this year. I think and then i don't think it's his deep just the entire fantasy field but i really like the like the top twenty five players. Yeah i'll say the last thing. I never mentioned the packers stuff a lot. Evan i think thinks a cord the chef during laser in these guys that it's likelier than not or you know. They suspect that rogers willing to sit out the year. I think it's likelier that aaron rodgers comes senses for thirty million dollars age thirty seven and maybe one last chance to get super going. He shows up for week one. I like taking air jones and being ahead of the market on them. And guys like that age dylan and devante and amari rogers and all these guys. I like taking them right now. In the host aaron rodgers does come back such as one little thing that that would make a big difference for sure. Obviously jordan love could be as stone disaster. But you have you have angels fourteenth overall right now even with this uncertainty around and got drafted him a couple of times. I mean he he's. Adp is low enough that you can be step. Typical like i on aaron rodgers coming back and you could still draft them. I mean i. I'll take him with confidence. You know right right. Where have i mean. Sometimes they'll give in the middle of the second row. I love taking yep agreed. Okay hope you guys enjoyed this. I think this will give you a good baseline for range. Back comes on players how we feel about players going the first round. There's a lot of question marks around the i don't be afraid to venture off of. Adp once you get past christian.

"To kyle. Cow came with it. Yeah i asked how. Because i sit here right down. Questions and cow gave me this one on. I wrote it down. So i'm gonna ask it to you the same way. He posed it to me. Okay here's the question cannot be the man technologie beat a man not no yes. I'm going to answer that one. Yes he's going to be the man. The question is what level is that bad going to be. He's he's the guy he's the guy. He's the running back. He's the guy as long as he's healthy. I still said. I don't wish anything expecting him to play in every game. I think it's too much of an expectation. I'm trying to get steeler fans prepared for this. Only two running backs started sixteen games last season. Derrick henry and devon single terry. That's it that's all so and it wasn't like there was a guy that ooh he wasn't on the field because it was it was a it was a they started five wide or he started fifty games. No wasn't even that it. What it was the next most with someone who started ten games. Giovanni bernard because after joey after joe mixing was hurt so he played in all sixteen games and started ten but he wasn't the starter. You know what. I'm saying because guys miss time guys miss time this especially your main. So i'm trying to set up steeler nation that they're not disappointed if all of a sudden he's he. He misses a to two game stretch. If any if he plays fourteen games. That's great anything more than that is fantastic so just keep that in mind to not set the bar too high. But he's gonna be the man when he's playing. The only question is is is the scheme and the blocking gonna come together to have him be the man so i liked that. Do you want your question. Because that's not my question. I was right where you were. You know just he. He's going to be put. He's going to be given every opportunity to be the man and if the steelers as an offensive unit perform as a unit then he will be the man yup. Yeah i think you're right. I want to go to my question okay. Ready now go see. I asked the home. yeah good. Zits flushing the type of questions. We ask for two completely different types of questions which i liked it. It worked out that way that made it perfect. Here's a question to be answered during training camp. Who's the starting center. That's my question. Was the starting center all right. You wouldn't be out for me in terms of just remember. we're throw it out. Answers with these are really things that are going to be answered during training camp. But if you have to answer it you can't my hope. My jury started hoping it on draft was was kendrick. Green comes in goes mike webster on the place. Everybody looks at guy and says that guys too good enough to put on the field and he wins the starting job. That's my hope. That's what i hope to see in training camp but we won't that answer to train here. Yeah i do find that really interesting that you said that because you know mike webster only started two games in his first season. I i yeah. I'm not so. But i know what you mean..

I'm probably gonna take joe mixon and maybe this is old school thinking but we talk admittedly about the fishbowl. There is such an amazing glut of wide receiver three options all of whom could hit. And i trust my analysis in my gut enough to know which of those guys i can hit on in those sandwich rounds of draft that can propel me to make any difference but running back it. Just lean real fast. So i think i would probably i mean i'm higher on nuke than a lot of people because of the old man narrative attached to him now but i think i would lean more towards mixing because of the scarcity at the position. I'm gonna do a twitter. Poll and people are taking in half. Pbr mixing or antonio gibson. I i want to see how how out of touch high if i am. I think as you a second one with nixon or a receiver not named tyreek slash devante. What if i did one twitter. Poll who you taking unhappy. Pr joe mixon. Antonio gibson stefan. Dick's that work.

I Lamar Jackson throw to somebody attempt to throw titan Mark Andrews, hit a defender in the back hawk the mar a thrower is still a work in progress. Yes, worker progress is putting it lightly. I mean, he just has to, you know, a lot of time with quarterbacks no matter how good or or, you know, whatever the scouting report says about you. We can't see you at your best until you're comfortable. And when I watch him throw the football when I watch him try to dissect defenses. I don't see a guy who feels comfortable yet. Which is why I think you've. Verse two running a lot because that's the thing that makes them feel the most confident so he asked to become comfortable as a passer, and then we can kind of make the determination of whether or not he has the ability of the thrower right on cue. I see him rush for about eight yards for the Baltimore Ravens him or Josh Allen. Who's been the more impressive runner to you. Because Allen's doing it on non design runs. Lamar. The design stuff. Yeah. I mean, I think they're both impressive. I think Josh Allen is just the one that surprises me more. I didn't expect him to be able to Russia the level.

"But I just feel like it's so shady, it's so shady how TMZ can get this whole thing. The NFL can't the chiefs can't but TMZ pays up. It's. I wanna know. Like on to keep it quiet at the beginning did Kareem hunt half to pay right? And then from there. Did you know TMZ just triple what he paid the Cleveland police? I I wanna know how deep this goes to me. It's a little fishy. Ira fishing, and Amy Trask was on with with fits of Brooks today. And I it's part of what I've been saying on this whole time is do you do you hire? But she said it's kind of hard. Dot com on the podcast, great stuff. But she she was saying to you hire TMZ. Do you hire some type of thing like that? In have resources to go and pay for those. Videos for your investigations, I but see that's the thing is man you want to know. So many things because look you're investigating. You're you're paying up, and I feel like TMZ would end up, you know, almost like extortion. Yes. Yeah. Eight they know exactly how much the NFL's worth information is a commodity for any in especially valuable information. And at the end of the day, what the NFL needs to know is what really happened. And however, look the NFL their financial resources pretty limitless. There is some limit. But to obtain a copy of a video, look, I think they can probably find, you know, between the owners, and whoever the hell is going to be in charge of of facilitating that I think that they can come up with a number of the the bottom line is they need to know what happened in the fact that there was a video of this incident and never mind. How dumb Kareem hunt was for doing something like that knowing that it was all being recorded. But that aside knowing that there is a video available since February and Kareem hunt. Hunt felt empowered enough embolden enough to light his team. He had to have known that. They were having a hard time getting the video or didn't have access to it. I mean, they didn't see the video because if you see the video, you know, right away away like kicked out. I wonder as guard went down a little bit each week. Yeah. Good. Yeah. I'm good. Hanging over his head. Could you imagine knowing that your career your NFL career is just hanging in the balance and the day that the other shoe drops, you're toast? And I mean, it's bad enough that this happened know in any way, shape or form the fact that it happened just a couple of days after Ruben foster that to me is kind of fishy to now all the sudden and we're getting near playoff time in the chiefs are potentially in a position to win the Super Bowl. There was a lot of stuff going on behind the scenes man, this thing just stinks all high. Hell no, it just sucks, and, you know, starting with the domestic violence to the cover up to the, you know, the distribution of the video to the new police cars at the Cleveland police officers are driving and all that stuff. It's it's it's all shady shady. So following an internal review. It was determined that in February a member of the Cleveland division of police provided a report you'll appreciate you trying to do some serious here. You don't mind felt house? Doing it for felony baby. All right now. So I'll start over following an internal review is determined that in February a member of the Cleveland police provided a copy of that police report, including the assault incident at the nine which was the hotel to the National Football League. And of course, they didn't go through the official publics public records request process. Now, if you go through that process, officially then it's known that the NFL is petitioning to get that information. Because I I gotta think look the police reports one thing like if you know, there's video of it. I don't need the police report. And that's the other thing that just begs the question. Okay. There's this video like, yeah. The charges were dropped. Why why were the charges dropped? They don't do anything for misdemeanor. It wasn't. It was not a felon. It was not charges a felony. You should have been. No, okay. Yeah. No. I mean any of that stuff? Should right? No doubt. Whether or not whatever it should be a felony. But it was filed under as a misdemeanor, which they don't do stuff you're going, wait what? Yeah. That's just shadiest number one. The fact that I don't care how hard he kicked. Her didn't kick her. You know what I mean? Like that was a felony the moment that right? She's dazed. She's she's laying on the ground days has has just gotten to the point where she sitting up. She's not even standing it. And he tried to kick her in the face. I mean, whether you connected or not I mean, thank God. He didn't he barely grazed or but not the point. You know, in the fact that she was on the ground is because you knock that dude indoor. And I know that I, you know, I don't know that he did that on purpose. But I guarantee you he didn't care if she got knocked down. Clearly, he was intent on doing her harm, hence the shove and then later kicking her. So let me ask you this this Kareem hunt play in the NFL again. Yes. Yeah. I think so too. I think he's young enough. Yeah. That's why Ray rice didn't play again because he was done. He was already at the end of his career. Well, yeah. And hit what he did on video, right? I feel like a complete ass for even having compare that. You're right though. It's true world. We all we all think the same. But it wasn't as bad. It wasn't even though it is it wasn't what the wasn't as graphic as the one punch layout. Right. And even if you go on the Joe mixing stuff, right? And the other part of it too. Is that was his significant other now again, there's no excuse for this but Kareem hunt, and this gal they weren't like romantically involved. Okay there. There was a disagreement. You know, apparently tossed around my point is the Ray rice stuff. It's almost even more shocking because this is supposed to be somebody that you love and care about still married, right? That's what I'm saying. You're in a partnership to protect the whereas opposed to somebody just being a complete stranger that you had a disagreement with what you can. I think I think there's got to be a lot of answers. A lot of questions answered by Kareem hunt and not verbally by actions right in how. Have you address certain things? How have you gone about counseling? How you know if he's out all next year, then good for him. Yeah. Because then it maybe his message is being passed. You know, you know from from team to team. I just see. He's too young and talented and we've discussed talent over all this crap. Sure. I think it's going to end up being that he's gonna play and the other part of it too is I thought that the Lisa Saulters sit down that was way too soon for me. It was like it was just so, but it's so soon it's so perfect for Lisa Saulters to get it all, of course. But even though they made they went out of their way to say, you heard her in the interview say you requested this interview. So that was Kareem hunt reaching out to them saying how I wanna get a message out. And I felt like it was total damage control one. Oh one. He's just trying to me. Then who was it? Right. Yeah. That's see. That's the thing. Like, no. It's not you. It was you you can say that was out of character for me. That's not a representation of who. I am. But no, my man, there's a connect there because that was you, and that's why you're not employed by the Kansas City Chiefs anymore, and that but see that's the one thing that I feel very comfortable saying that is you that is your character. Under percent, you do that. That's your character. That is that is a part of it from the beginning. You have that in you there? Literally do not have that in me. I know that you're right me. Neither thankfully, but you're right. There's only there's there's the kind of people that will in the kind of people that won't. And so to say that that's not you now my man that is you and I just felt like right now. This was the time for Kareem hunt. Make your statement. Hey, the chiefs were right to do what they did. I was in the wrong. Okay. Cool like and then say, hey, I'm gonna make this right? I know it's going to take a long time. But I will make this right? I'm going to make some changes. If that's what we heard from Kareem hunt. And then we didn't hear from again for six months. I'm cool like, and then don't tell me show me show me the changes that you've made. Hey, I went to counseling I'm volunteering at a shelter. Whatever it is I'm a battered women's shelter. Whatever it is to show us. You understand the severity of it. And it's not all poor me. I lost my job in the NFL. It's poor victim of my heinous assault. And the fact that I don't have a job in the NFL is the right thing because I was way out of line. I felt like he was trying to do some like PR. Reparation campaign, and I just felt like it was so ill time. And when she asked him directly about what happened. He just basically iterative that he didn't matter. What happened? And it's like, no, dude. It absolutely matters. What happened? That's why we're all year right now. Ready for our society right now, they don't even six five. Oh, let's talk about Steph night. Not women beaters fellas. All right. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Like that that right there alone. I it just says we're uncomfortable talking about it. But it needs to be talked about an address. Yeah. And to me the moment, you ignore it. There's so many things that you know, how can how can the NFL do better and get the message across in. And and try to help out. Why think it it obviously starts younger? And if I'm NFL, I'm
Fantasy Focus Football
Fantasy football: Tyrod Taylor Will Deliver
"To tyrod Taylor had him as a top twelve guy going into the week. We've talked about him in the preseason. That is what he is. Rushing always keeps his floor high. I don't think this was an accident. I do think better days are ahead for tyrod as a passer, again, bad weather and getting more into the game flow first game of the season. Yeah, but Tyron tyrod is going to be a top twelve fantasy quarterback as long as he has this job. And I think he's going to have the job for quite some time because I think as long as they're competitive and they certainly were yesterday, look, they didn't win that game, obviously correct. But they lose it either. Well, correct. And I don't think that was on tyrod. I mean, look, I some listen, one hundred percent. There was had Josh Gordon deep and he could. He could have Josh Gordon how to stop Stepney under through it. It was a bad pick. There's no question. There was some mistakes, but listen block a guy. You had a chance to win with a field goal block guys, special teams field. A lot of things went wrong for the Browns yesterday to one. Fate became clear, Carlos Hyde is a primary in the backfield he is. And I, I was interested in like many of the backfield's we were watching stray. How is the distribution gonna shake out and the thing that got my attention was the limitations for Duke Johnson. I just thought that for me, do Johnson really not playing a factor at all in the in the past catching game, hurt what he was able to do for you? Fantasy wise Carlos Hyde was the preferred riot.
