00:00All right, here we go, this next manager offers up Tyler Algier at New Orleans or Ricky Pearsall

00:09at Tampa.

00:10Yeah, we're talking about flex spots here.

00:13I'm going to go ahead with Tyler Algier against New Orleans.

00:16Game script here for me is you get up early for the Falcons and then you pound the rock

00:21and just, you know, second half gets kind of ugly and you just kind of run, run, run,

00:26which means a little bit more Tyler Algier.

00:28Ricky Pearsall now has to work in an offense where you're looking at Debo Samuel and George

00:34Kittle and now Christian McAfee returning and, and, and, and I think it's tough for

00:39the rookie to look good here in this scenario.

00:41So although Algier is the second running back on his team, I think he has far more flex

00:45appeal in this matchup and New Orleans, I, I wonder what kind of offense they can put

00:50together at all.

00:51This could be a 20 to seven kind of game or a 24 to three kind of a game like that.

00:55It could be ugly like that.

00:57In which case Algier would work a lot in the second half.

01:01And we've already seen a couple of weeks ago, the Tyler Algier garbage time is really useful.

01:06It put them over a hundred yards rushing a couple of weeks ago.

01:09So don't be shocked if you don't see that again today.

01:12In fact, if you're looking at even an RB two scenario, if you don't love what you have

01:16because of injuries or buys, Algier might be a guy this week in particular with this

01:21matchup against the same team that might really struggle, Matt.

01:23I think, I think that's a way that you could certainly look at it and start to feel a little

01:29bit more comfortable while starting Algier and Pearsall, I guess that he kind of gets

01:32left out in the dust.

01:33What do you think?

01:34Yeah, no, I'm with you because of how you said it quite humorously, the and, and, and,

01:40and there's just so many questions there with regards to San Francisco, there's so much

01:43uncertainty at this point, unless I'm really up with house money and I can find some good

01:47numbers.

01:48I really want to avoid uncertainty, right?

01:51Yeah, I think that's it too.

01:53It's the uncertainty.

01:54You can control Tyler Algier a little bit more, um, Pearsall right now, especially with

01:59returns of Jennings with returns of Christian McCaffrey, right?

02:03It's just threading that needle and that gets really tricky for fancy points.

02:06So
