00:00Well, fantasy football has taken quite a bit of hit at the quarterback position in week
00:10one, so much so that it almost didn't matter where you drafted a quarterback, at least
00:13for one week.
00:14I mean, we saw Thursday night, neither quarterback performed pretty well.
00:17And while there were some really good performances, none of the top fantasy quarterbacks are off
00:23to good starts.
00:24I mean, pretty much.
00:26The best start of all was not somebody that started in any 12-team league, Superflex maybe,
00:32but George Baker Mayfield did not start in one fantasy league of 12 teams last week.
00:37I mean, maybe.
00:38I don't want to say guaranteed not, because I don't know.
00:41Some people live in Tampa, they probably started them.
00:44But he threw for four touchdowns, 289 passing yards, and dare I say, he's just picked right
00:51up where he left off at the end of last year.
00:55If you keep him clean, Baker Mayfield will put up points, right?
00:59I mean, you've got two great wide receivers at Evans and Godwin.
01:01Remember, Godwin's also another year off the ACL, so that's good news as well, as he'll
01:06feel more and more comfortable.
01:07This team will score points, and I think that probably continues this week as well, by the
01:11way, against the Detroit Lions.
01:13We know they can be beat through the secondary once again, as you brought up earlier.
01:16We saw that the Cooper Cup is still catching passes against that secondary from last week.
01:20So yeah, Baker Mayfield's a solid quarterback, although I would agree with you, though.
01:26I know Casey Hudson, a big Tampa Bay fan, maybe she started Baker Mayfield in some fantasy
01:30leagues.
01:31Other than that, I'm sure it was single-digit, percentage-wise, ownership for Baker Mayfield
01:36in week one in one quarterback league.
01:39And picked up in a lot of leagues right now, or as of last week, owned under 50% of rosters.
01:45My guess is that's changed a lot.
