00:00Well, if there ever was a known commodity in fantasy football, it is the running back
00:07position on the Kansas City Chiefs.
00:08Now look, it's certainly not like the 49ers, okay, let's not get it twisted here.
00:15But you got Patrick Mahomes, and you got passes, you got a lot of flags, George, in the end
00:20zone, right?
00:21Flag, flag, Kansas City, we know that story.
00:25And then you got touchdowns on the goal line, and so those are all going to Isaiah Pacheco
00:28this year, right?
00:30Well, no, Pacheco's going to miss probably the whole year.
00:33So here are the options.
00:35I mean, here are the options for the Chiefs backfield.
00:37It's ugly.
00:38Samadze Pirine, who was like a sneaky pick, I think going into the season, doesn't look
00:44so sneaky anymore.
00:46Not so good.
00:47Carson Steele had 18 touches in week three, but I gotta tell you, wasn't that impressed.
00:53Kareem Hunt, he's been activated from the practice squad.
00:57So there's a number of different directions that I want to go here.
01:02Let's start with these options.
01:05Let's start with these three options, because, George, I personally think running back for
01:10the fantasy football playoffs is not currently playing for the Kansas City Chiefs.
01:16That's my opinion.
01:17Oh, I might agree with you.
01:20I think it's very fair.
01:23It's a tough situation for fantasy, because you're guessing here.
01:26You're just guessing.
01:28I agree with you about Steele.
01:29He was not impressive last week at all.
01:31I mean, he touched the ball the most, but it was three yards in a cloud of dust.
01:36If you're starting him, you're praying he gets in the end zone.
01:39That's really all you're looking for, that he gets in the end zone.
01:41He's just not going to do much for you.
01:43And by the way, his sister had her wedding on game day.
01:48Don't you know your brother is an NFL player?
01:51Weird, man.
01:52Right?
01:53It's September.
01:54Make the wedding in August.
01:55How did they even have the wedding?
01:56How did they even do it?
01:57Why didn't they just wait?
01:58Weird, man.
01:59Totally weird.
02:00Do they not like the brother?
02:01And they're watching the game from the wedding?
02:03What?
02:04Was that a thing?
02:05I mean, maybe that was the theme.
02:06I just found that strange.
02:08Help watch my brother play while I toast to the next six months of my life before I'm
02:13the vote.
02:14Oh, no.
02:15I didn't say that.
02:16Wow.
02:17Six months.
02:18This guy, how long have we been married, Craig?
02:19I know I'm on year 23.
02:2020.
02:21No, 20.
02:22Yeah.
02:2320.
02:24Yeah.
02:25I'm a 23 and a half.
02:26So there we go.
02:27Where are we going?
02:28I just found it strange.
02:29Where am I going?
02:30Perrine.
02:31Perrine.
02:32I think he's the guy you want.
02:33Perrine.
02:34Go to Perrine.
02:35He's not even on the team.
02:36I like Samadji Perrine.
02:37I think he's the guy you want.
02:38Hurrah.
02:39Me, Ryan.
02:40Me, Ryan.
02:41Me, Ryan.
02:42Perrine.
02:43Whatever you like.
02:44Samadji.
02:45He catches the ball.
02:46That's the bottom line here.
02:47Once again, I assume you're playing in a PPR league.
02:48If you're playing in a standard league.
02:49Does anybody play standard anymore?
02:50By the way, if you do that, then you probably do it wrong.
02:51I don't know.
02:52Does anybody play standard anymore?
02:53By the way, if you do that, then you probably do want the steal, I guess.
02:57But I think Samadji is the guy you want.
02:59Now, I have no idea what Perrine, Perrine, what a practice guy's name.
03:02Well, screwed up.
03:03But I think he's the guy you want to catch the ball to the backfield.
03:05Touchdowns are going to be hard to come by here.
03:07They're running back threes.
03:08And you're still guessing here.
03:09Kareem Hunt, by the way, he was on the NFL wave of wire.
03:14If he had something left, somebody would have grabbed him beforehand.
03:17I got to think that.
03:18So it's the same situation with Dalvin Cook with the Cowboys.
03:20If he was all that good, he'd be gone already.
03:22We'd already be on a team.
03:25So I don't expect much from Kareem Hunt.
03:27Yeah.
03:28And the reason why I was saying that is, number one, I think they could make a trade.
03:31Number two, we have not even talked about Clyde Edwards-Elaire, who is still sitting
03:37on their injured reserve or whatever it is, suffering from post-traumatic syndrome.
03:41I don't know that he's coming back, but if this is another week where the Chiefs cannot
03:46run the ball at all and do nothing, I mean, I definitely think he's an ad in fantasy football
03:51off the IR.
03:52But I think what George has said is fair.
03:54Piran looks like the best option because he can catch the ball in the backfield.
03:57Steele may be the goal line guy, but you look at teams that are out of it at some point,
04:06running back commodity, who even knows what it really is these days anymore.
04:10But I would tell you where George was right and I was wrong, here's the truth.
04:15Cam Akers did not look good last week, but George said, this guy's going to score a touchdown.
04:18And he did.
04:19He did.
04:21George was right.
04:22I was wrong.
04:23Cam Akers played.
04:24He scored.
04:25Okay.
04:26But nobody watching that game would think Cam Akers is good from that one.
04:27Who is the Cam Akers right now on some other team that ends up in Kansas City at the end
04:34of the season?
04:35Is it Ramondre Stevenson?
04:38You know, like is it somebody like, no, he's too good.
04:41He's too good.
04:42He's too good.
04:43He's too good.
04:44Javante?
04:45Mostert?
04:46No, same division.
04:47They would never do that.
04:48They would never do that.
04:49They would never do that.
04:50Same division.
04:51How about Mostert?
04:52You know, Miami's got a right.
04:53They got a change.
04:54If Miami fell out?
04:55Yeah.
04:56If Miami fell out?
04:57Spears?
04:58I don't know.
04:59That's not going to happen.
05:00Javante Williams?
05:01How about Javante Williams?
05:02Oh, same division again.
05:03That could be a problem.
05:04Yeah.
05:05He just said that.
05:06He's not, they're not going to trade that helped the Chiefs, man.
05:07Does he kill Elliott?
05:08I don't see it.
05:09There aren't too many good running backs out there.
05:10Don't see it.
05:11Again.
05:12My prediction.
05:13Starter in the fantasy football playoffs.
05:14Not on the Chiefs right now.
