Transcript

00:02 Rule of thumb on games like this, George, is I think Carolina, based on history,
00:07 when you fire a coach, the players always take that personally,
00:11 to show that it wasn't their fault, it was his fault.
00:16 I think the Panthers are gonna play well, I don't know.
00:18 I'm gonna play some Panthers, that's crazy.
00:20 Chuba, he's in my lineup this week.
00:23 I guess Thielen is back in the lineup this week.
00:26 And for Tampa Bay, you're playing those receivers, although Godwin,
00:28 what has happened to him, Georgie?
00:30 Certainly, I thought Godwin was gonna play for a long time, and
00:33 Mike Evans was on the way out.
00:35 It's been the opposite, Evans is still great.
00:36 Godwin doesn't play well.
00:38 Chad White, pretty good too.
00:39 May feel one of those where you're making a decision, I think, over somebody else.
00:43 >> Godwin, you wonder, hasn't really been the same since the knee injury, right?
00:49 Although he was solid last year, but hasn't been really the same.
00:51 That guy you're really worried about, so
00:55 I wonder if he's still recovering from that.
00:57 >> All right, I'll throw this out here.
00:58 If, and I understand there's a lot of ifs here, if the Jets beat the Falcons,
01:05 all right, and that's probably not gonna happen, but hey, it could.
01:08 If- >> You never know.
01:09 >> If the Detroit Lions beat the Saints, and I think that is going to happen.
01:13 And if Tampa Bay wins on Sunday, which certainly could happen against the Panthers,
01:18 they'll be in first place.
01:20 >> No way. >> In the NFC South.
01:22 There'll be a three-way tie, right?
01:24 It'll only be five and seven, so it'll be a colossal mess.
01:28 I think the Falcons would actually still be in first place by division record I'm
01:30 looking at here, they're 3-0 in the division, so
01:32 they'd still be in first place by tiebreaker.
01:34 But what a mess if that happens here.
01:36 So, hey, I guess it's a big game at Tampa.
01:39 The division's a mess, all right?
01:40 Hey, the winner of this division is likely to play by Cowboys here,
01:43 because Cowboys are gonna be the number one wild card here.
01:45 So interesting to say the least here, but this is a game, boy,
01:49 you don't wanna watch Atlanta Jets, you don't wanna watch this game either.
01:52 It should be pretty boring here.
01:53 I understand when you're Scott Wetzel on our network's big on betting on the team
01:58 that fires the head coach, cuz he thinks they get that head coach bump.
02:01 So he's following along right with you here.
02:02 That being said, fantasy-wise,
02:04 it doesn't mean we need to get fantasy points for out of anybody.
02:06 That being said, the way to beat Tampa is attack them through the air, so
02:09 maybe Thielen is a play this week.
02:10 I don't love it, but maybe he is.
02:12 Bryce Young, no.
02:13 The running back, sure.
02:15 There just aren't enough around there, so I'll go that way with you.
02:17 But I just don't see where we're getting massive fantasy points here.
02:20 Mayfield, no.
02:21 And Superflex, sure.
02:22 Mike Evans is a definite start.
02:24 Rashad White, we love, is a definite start.
02:26 Sneaky tight end.
02:27 K-Dot, play well, Lee.
