00:00Patriots had a hot pickup this week at running back because Ramondre Stevenson, who missed last week, looks like he's going to miss this week again.
00:08And initially, they did not turn the ball over to Travion Henderson, and people were freaking out.
00:12Inevitably, they did, although they had another kid named Jennings who ended up scoring a touchdown there.
00:17Also, keep in mind, Patriots thin at wide receiver.
00:20Kayshawn Booty's going to miss this week.
00:22It was announced late in the week.
00:23And for Tampa Bay, George, they're banged up too.
00:25Sort of incredible to me that even through the bye, no Mike Evans, no Chris Godwin, no Bucky Irving.
00:31I mean, I don't know.
00:32You can count on these guys the rest of the season.
00:35So Rashad White, put him in and play him yet again.
00:37Get your 40 yards and a touchdown.
00:39It's pretty much what he does.
00:41And I think that this will be in a Buka game.
00:43You know, like Buka, I think he's been hurt, George.
00:46I think he needed that time off.
00:47I would guess that this is probably a bounce-back game for him.
00:50He's been quiet the last few weeks.
00:52Yeah, he's got the hamstring, right?
00:53But he doesn't have an injury designation.
00:54He should be good to go here.
00:56Those wondering about Godwin, by the way, they say he may not return until week 12, week 13 now.
01:01Evans, I think it would be much later than that with the broken collarbone there.
01:05Kate Otten's a possibility for you.
01:06Maybe you lost Ferguson.
01:08You know, you need to replace him.
01:08Or Kelsey, you need to replace him.
01:10He's someone you may want to go to.
01:11But I don't see – New England has a legit good defense here.
01:14I don't see there's being a ton of points being scored here.
01:16And we saw before the Bible, the last two games at Tampa, Mayfield was running for his life a lot.
01:21Yeah.
01:21In a one-quarterback league, yeah, you're probably starting him, Craig.
01:24But I might want to check who's on the way for who my backup is.
01:27I don't see this being a big game for Mayfield.
01:29You're starting at Bucca.
01:30You mentioned Rashad White.
01:31No choice there.
01:32For New England, no Stevenson.
01:33He's out as well here.
01:35So, we already said.
01:36Henderson and Jennings, I guess you have to mix and match to hope one guy gets the touchdown.
01:41And you said it.
01:41Boutte's out there.
01:42Probably not much I like there on the New England offense outside of Drake May.
01:48Rams and 49ers, last time these two teams faced off, it was all Rams.
01:53Nobody playing for the 49ers at all.
01:56And the 49ers went into L.A. and won.
01:58And won pretty easily.
01:59So, I'm not sure which way this is going to go this week.
02:03But here's what I know.
02:04You definitely play everybody you can on the Rams because you got to.
02:08They're doing fantastic, obviously.
02:10And Stafford's just throwing a million touchdown passes this season.
02:14And for the 49ers, they got the best player in fantasy football again in Christian McCaffrey.
02:18George, at the end of the season, McCaffrey's going to be the number one player in all of fantasy.
02:24I can almost start with McCaffrey.
02:26If Brian Robertson's available in your fantasy league, you got to claim him.
02:30Because they're using McCaffrey a lot.
02:33I mean a lot.
02:34I just have to wonder if sooner later an injury is going to happen there.
02:37So, I'd want to claim Robertson if he's available.
02:39He's probably not.
02:39But if he is, I'd want to claim him.
02:41This is the game, by the way.
02:42I think it was a Thursday night game where Kyron Williams fumbled the ball late when they're going in for the win here.
02:46So, that's why they lost the game.
02:48Tough loss there.
02:49But Matthew Stafford, Craig, is he your MVP right now?
02:53I mean, it's nuts what he's doing here.
02:55He's having a fantastic season.
02:56Nakua's healthy.
02:57Adams is healthy.
02:58You got Williams there.
03:00So, he's starting all these guys.
03:01San Fran's still playing it very coy about the quarterback position.
03:04Oh, you know, Purdy's practicing a little bit more here.
03:07But he's still limited at practice.
03:08We'll see what happens at practice on Friday here.
03:11I imagine it's still going to be Mack Jones that we hear differently, you know, as far as who's going to start there.
03:16And you're probably starting, Mack.
03:17You know, I don't know if you have much of an option there.
03:19Certainly starting with Christian McCaffrey.
03:21No, Carr Piercehall.
03:23Kittle, you're starting.
03:24Jawan Jennings?
03:25Yeah, probably going that direction, too, this week.
03:27He has a wide receiver three.
03:29Flex.
03:29Yeah.
03:30Mack Jones is going to be a starter in the NFL for somebody next year.
03:33You can just book that right now based on this.
03:37Lions and Commanders.
03:38I mean, look, last week, that was the stunner to me.
03:42Not that, George, that the Lions lost that game.
03:45I think they're in for a big bounce back this week for the Lions.
03:47What in the world happened?
03:49The running backs, nothing.
03:50Goff, nothing against Minnesota.
03:53Washington is just a walking disaster right now.
03:55Just everybody hurt for them.
03:57I honestly can't make a case for playing anyone.
03:59We're hearing this week that Bill, Ja'Cory, Crossby Merritt, may not play as much as he has been.
04:04Maybe this other guy, Rodriguez, is going to play.
04:07But I'm firing up the Lions this week.
04:10Remember, also, if you believe in revenge games, Washington eliminated Detroit last week.
04:14I think this is a butt-kicking.
04:15I think Detroit's going to go in there and just mash them.
04:18Washington's a man.
04:18They're all beat up.
04:20Everyone's hurt here.
04:21You're starting Debo, and that's really it.
04:22Maybe Zach Ertz, too.
04:24But that's about it.
04:25Everybody who normally goes for Detroit, go.
04:27This should be a butt-kicking.
04:28Detroit scores 35-plus.
