00:00How about Chargers and the Giants' first start for Jackson Dart?
00:03They're getting about six, six and a half points,
00:04depending where he's shopping.
00:05And the total is at 43 and a half, which means you know the Chargers.
00:09They love to crank up the running game.
00:11They want to choke out the New York Giants in the second half.
00:13Does that play into something that you like in this game, Tom?
00:16It has to.
00:17And what a stretch of games that Jackson Dart is going to be facing,
00:21not just this week, but over the coming weeks.
00:23I think he has to face the Eagles twice in the next five or six weeks,
00:26whatever it might be.
00:27But trial by fire, I guess, for him.
00:30When it comes to Chargers, we know that Najee Harris is now done for the season.
00:33So, you know, Maureen Hampton, their first-round pick,
00:35like it's time for him to shine ultimately.
00:37And last week, after Najee Harris got hurt in that game,
00:42of the running back touches for the Chargers,
00:46Maureen Hampton saw all of them.
00:47Now, we did see Darius Davis with a rushing attempt at one point,
00:50but I think Maureen Hampton over 16 and a half rushing attempts for this week.
00:54I don't want to look just at last week, but if we look back to week one,
00:57I think it's important to note that Hampton got 16 carries as a rookie,
01:01in his rookie debut, in a road game, in an international road game.
01:05So, Harborough is at least willing to trust him in a very difficult environment.
01:09So, I think moving forward, this prop is only going to move up, up, up, and up.
01:13And I'm going to buy low at 16 and a half.
01:14Let me ask you this, Tom, because that's an interesting point.
01:18Obviously, week three, the usage rate went through the roof, right?
01:2119 runs there.
01:23But he also caught six passes, right, from Justin Herbert.
01:27So, should we be looking at that as well?
01:29Maybe one of the props is his passing and rushing, maybe?
01:33Yeah, I would actually prefer rushing, receiving yards combined
01:37before I would prefer just receptions.
01:39And, you know, frankly, with the Giants, the second most rushing yards allowed
01:43per game this season, this is a matchup, right?
01:46Like, you want to take the wind out of the Giants' sails
01:48with their rookie quarterback making his debut?
01:51Don't let him touch the ball.
01:52Like, just dominate the time of possession.
01:54Run the ball.
01:55They're terrible on defense.
01:56Spread it around.
01:57Quinton Johnston, Ladd McConkie, Keenan Allen, get everyone to touch the ball
02:01and just keep the ball out of Jackson Dart's hands.
02:03I'm not saying he's some massive threat that's going to run up the score.
02:06But in order to just mitigate any of that,
02:07just give it to Hampton, let him run the ball.
