00:00And let's go to Indianapolis for a quarterback.
00:06You don't see where I'm going here, folks, a quarterback that people didn't see coming
00:10because he wasn't the QB one when the season started.
00:13Let's talk.
00:15I seem to remember a deep dive on this show.
00:17No, I seem to remember a classic Joey P rant about why Justin Fields should be the starter
00:23and why Justin Fields will play more snaps than Russell Wilson this year.
00:29Even I didn't think we'd get it so quickly as week one.
00:32But this is the all Pennsylvania football team edition of the booms this week.
00:38We've got four players, all of which play for teams from the great state of PA, which
00:43I was at actually in Philly, having a nice dinner at Ralph's Italian restaurant Thursday
00:49night in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
00:51You're correct.
00:52I'm not sure what that is.
00:54But it's great.
00:55Ralph's, by the way, oldest Italian restaurant in the United States of America, one of the
01:00greatest places to visit.
01:01If you've never been, go to Ralph's, tell him Joey P sent you.
01:05But Justin Fields, he went to Ralph's and he looks great.
01:08I'm telling you right now, that guy definitely hit that restaurant up there and he is starting
01:13to really put it together.
01:15The confidence is growing.
01:18Last week, 25 completions, 245 passing yards.
01:23He didn't rush for a whole lot, but this week he's got the Indianapolis Colts defense.
01:27His Colts defense is not very good.
01:29Also Jalen Warren out for this game.
01:30So we're down to Najee Harris and this is a team that wants to run the football.
01:33So I'm going to predict here that we're going to get a lot more Justin Fields designed rushes
01:38in this game.
01:39They've got tons of issues on the defensive side, Indianapolis.
01:43I love Fields today.
01:45Last week he was the 12th QB in terms of fantasy points.
01:50This week on fantasy pros, he's the consensus QB 10.
01:54He is an extreme value in DFS.
01:56He's a guy that I actually feel better starting over Anthony Richardson this week or Jordan
02:01Love this week.
02:02So if you're kind of in that weird spot with those QBs and you haven't had a lot of good
02:06luck, maybe it's time to give Justin Fields an opportunity in this single quarterback
02:10format for this particular matchup and hope that he can continue to grow because it looks
02:15like every single week Matt Fields continues to get more and more confident running this
02:20offense and I don't know if Russell Wilson is going to ever see his opportunity here
02:24with the Steelers to be honest.
