00:00Baker's a big winner. You mentioned players that are surprises. I mean, Rico Dowdle has got to be
00:05number one after the last two weeks. He had 183 rushing yards on 30 attempts and also receiving
00:10touchdown. And then Cam Scadabo, who I loved in college, but I just didn't think this quickly
00:16he would be this much of a factor. Three touchdowns, 98 yards. Reminds me so much of
00:22when Allstop was with Tampa Bay. He's just that good. They don't even have work done with him.
00:27He's the main guy right now. He is. And again, if you read your black book, you would be all in on
00:32Scadabo at the NFL level. Why? Because they told him in high school, it wouldn't work. They told
00:36him in college, it wouldn't work. And then they told him in the pros, he wouldn't work. And guess
00:39what? All this guy does is find dudes trucks them and runs in for scores. This is what he does. And
00:45look, he can catch the football too. He's a good athlete and he brings an energy to the giants
00:49that they have not had a long time. Look, I'm from the tri-state area. You know what it's like,
00:53you know, as giants fans around here can probably attest to, even when the giants were at their peak
00:58in the mid to late eighties, early nineties. And then again, the Eli Manning era, they were kind
01:03of boring. I don't think the giants are boring right now. I think the giants are on TV and you go,
01:08Hey, I kind of want to watch Jackson dart. I want to watch cam scataboo. This is entertaining
01:12and it's infectious. And it's creating actually a bit of a home field advantage for them, which is
01:17also something that I don't know if they've really had that much of in this stadium. So I think this is
01:22really an interesting turn here. Cam scataboo with a 30 point night, three touchdowns, huge day for
01:27them. But the lead here is Baker Mayfield on Sunday morning on FST. I spoke at length about
01:32betting Baker Mayfield for MVP at plus nine 50. Why? Because the only thing really standing in his
01:38way is Josh Allen, who really is kind of in a tough spot, who doesn't have a lot of help.
01:43And of course, what had happened? Baker Mayfield had an incredible game. One play in particular
01:49that really just is lighting up all the highlight reels. He gets that big first down, gets out of a
01:54sack and kind of keeps willing this team to win. And it is a good team. They've had a lot of
01:58continuity. They did a really good job here with the front office of keeping these guys, drafting
02:02these guys, re-signing these guys, right? And no matter how many offensive coordinators he has,
02:07Baker Mayfield every year continues to get better and better. And I think this narrative has grown.
02:11And after this big win against the 49ers, and now you get the Detroit lions, he is now plus
02:15350 for MVP. That drop was significant. So there's a chance you're already getting offered cash outs
02:21for this in some spots, but I do think Tampa is the best team in the NFC. And I'm going to stand
02:26on that. You do get Mike Evans back, hopefully this week. That is the hope. Noah Mechegbuka,
02:31that hurts, but I don't see why he can't go on the road and get a victory. And then in terms of
02:36Rico Dowdle, you mentioned it. He is the RB1 over the last two weeks, two incredible performances,
02:41200 yards in that first week that he had. And then last week, the revenge game against the Cowboys,
02:46just incredible. He's averaging 33 points per game in PPR. It's stunning. The question is,
02:52when Chuba Hubbard comes back, what's Chuba Hubbard's role? Because if you're watching Rico
02:56Dowdle, I don't see how you can take him out of what he's doing right now. He has been electric for
03:00this team and they're winning games right now. And I think that is the most important piece here.
03:05So we'll see how it goes. But if you have Chuba Hubbard right now, it's a very dicey investment on your
03:10bench.
