00:00Doc, some running backs today who people may have questions on.

00:03I'll start with Josh Jacobs.

00:05Overall, this is a close game health-wise,

00:08but I don't know if that's a good thing for either one of these teams.

00:10When you look at the sick edge, it's very tight between Detroit and Green Bay,

00:13slightly towards Detroit.

00:15Again, all that's over on Sixscore.com.

00:17What do you make of Josh Jacobs, who is expected to go in this game?

00:21Well, he was close to going on Sunday, so it's not a surprise that he's going here.

00:25It's more of a contusion.

00:26Hurt, not injured.

00:28Can he play through it?

00:29And the answer is yes today.

00:31Now, hopefully he doesn't fall on it, land on it, on that hard turf in Detroit

00:36and can finish the game.

00:38But Terry and Arnold being active will be a plus.

00:41Nixon, the cornerback, will be a plus.

00:44Detroit has had secondary issues, but they're getting a little bit healthier,

00:48and this is obviously a big divisional matchup for both teams.

00:53Yeah, I'm excited to watch this one play out quickly, Don.

00:56And again, we appreciate it.

00:57Isaiah Pacheco back for Kansas.

00:59City, what are your expectations for the Chiefs running back?

01:02I think Isaiah Pacheco will be fine.

01:05The biggest problem there is anyone who's got Kareem Hunt, who's been crushing it,

01:09is going to get hurt a little bit, right, fantasy-wise and pop-wise.

01:13What's the split going to be?

01:14Nobody knows.

01:14Only Andy Reid knows.

01:16But he's obviously had a good track record on short rest.

01:19The Chiefs are relatively healthy.

01:21Don't accept that right guard, Trey Smith.

01:24Don't worry about Rasheed Rice's hamstring.

01:26And that should be a fun matchup as well today for Dallas.
