00:00 Aaron Jones, no practice on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday with that hamstring injury.
00:09 Now does that mean he's not going to play?
00:12 We'll see, right?
00:13 Uh, I, they do this a lot with veteran players.
00:14 I mean, DeAndre Hopkins, great example of this.
00:16 A lot of times in DeAndre Hopkins career, he has played with no practice.
00:21 You're not going to find anyone on this team who knows the offense better than Aaron Jones.
00:24 Obviously, I think you feel comfortable starting AJ Dylan.
00:28 I would be interested to see what they do if Jones does not play with Patrick Taylor
00:33 and then this undrafted free agent who made the roster as their fourth running back, but
00:38 was not active in week one might be a scenario where Patrick Taylor keeps his role on special
00:43 teams, but doesn't play very much on offense also remains to be seen what they do with
00:48 Christian Watson, who has not been ruled out.
00:52 And it was seen, he was at practice on Friday.
00:55 Christian Watson was, but they've not made a declaration of his status either way.
00:58 Probably won't until Sunday morning.
01:00 They didn't until Sunday morning with Watson last week, either.
01:04 I really hope Christian Watson plays cause I've got him on a couple of high stakes fantasy
01:08 teams and I would really like to use his points here against the Falcons.
01:12 So submit, I'll honestly actually interesting to see what happens if the Packers are in
01:16 a close game.
01:17 They were just up so much on the bears last week.
01:19 I don't think we learned much about what they want to do on offense.
01:22 They were so run heavy on the converse.
01:25 Pretty interesting.
01:26 I mean, honestly, Craig, I hope to God that we get the Atlanta Falcons down 10 points
01:32 in this game, because I need to know, is Arthur Smith going to be stubborn regardless of the
01:38 score, regardless of how much he can win the game or lose the game by, is he just going
01:43 to throw the ball 20 times a game?
01:45 Because in that case, Drake London, you don't want to start him.
01:49 Kyle Pitts, you don't want to start him.
01:51 Obviously Bijon and Algier, you're going to be starting almost regardless because you
01:54 know, they're going to run the ball so much, but Kyle Pitts and Drake London top 70 picks,
02:00 top 80 picks in fantasy football.
02:02 Pitts started to fall a little bit towards the end of draft season.
02:05 Those are important players.
02:06 I mean, Drake London was a fourth round pick who got one target in week one.
02:10 I need to see them expand the playbook and Ritter was awful.
02:15 I know they won that game in week one, but man, he stunk.
02:18 He did not have it in week one and maybe he was nervous.
02:21 Maybe the game plan, you know, just like whatever.
02:23 I'll give excuses to guys for one week, but man, that was tough to watch.
02:31 And just knowing that they've spent all these draft picks, all these first round picks on
02:35 these skill position players and are hardly using them.
02:38 It just really makes me, I just don't like watching the Falcons because I just get mad
02:42 at Arthur Smith.
