00:00and I'll see you next time.
00:05Tyler Algier of the Atlanta Falcons.
00:07The shift is on to Bijan Robinson.
00:09That's the only thing I can say at this point.
00:10Bijan has really started to take over
00:13a lot of the volume here.
00:15Algier's numbers really came
00:17through the first five, six weeks of the season.
00:19George, 429 yards.
00:21I guess he's a borderline start,
00:23but I think you're starting to see the transformation
00:25of Atlanta's offense going through Robinson.
00:28Yeah, what took so long, by the way?
00:29We're talking two different regimes, Greg, right?
00:31I mean, the Arthur Smith regime,
00:33they said they even wanted Bijan Robinson last year,
00:36but then even Raheem Moore has taken a little bit here
00:38to realize what a player you have here.
00:40But I agree that the shift does seem to be on.
00:42Hey, maybe they were just monitoring his workload
00:44early in the season, building it up as the season goes along
00:46here, heading into the playoffs.
00:48Algier's a good player.
00:49I think he could start for a lot of teams here.
00:52And he's that player in that league I'm talking about,
00:54one of the leagues I'm talking about
00:55where I need a starting running back.
00:56I need a starting running back, actually two leagues.
00:57I'm debating Algier or Ordzik Estemein,
01:01whatever his name is, on Denver.
01:03Which way do I go here?
01:04And let's face it, I need to touch down Deodorant now.
01:07That's the only way either one's going to pay off.
01:09And they play each other, right?
01:10Yeah, they do play each other this week.
01:11So debating, which one do I go with here?
01:14Odds are I'm going to play it safe,
01:16go one in one league, the other in the other league.
01:19So that's the only way I do it.
01:20If I don't really feel great about either one,
01:22I'll cut the difference, and hopefully it
01:23works out in at least one league.
01:26Estimein, Estimein, you know, we're all family here.
01:30Best pickup on the waiver wire in fantasy football,
01:32he's not quite Puka Nukua, but Kareem Hunt
01:36has five touchdowns this season.
01:38Five off the waiver wire at running back, 449 yards.
01:42I could have had him easily.
01:43What was I thinking?
01:44Kareem Hunt, man.
01:46What a great pickup he was.
01:50I could have traded for him in a league for next to nothing.
01:52I think maybe Josh Downs.
01:54I think that was the player, and I turned it down.
01:57Mistake.
01:58That's a mistake on my part because that's
02:00in a league where I'm thinking about Algiers starting as well.
02:03So if I had Hunt, I wouldn't have a problem.
02:04So he's a start this week.
02:06All right, Pacheco will be back.
02:08So starting next week, we'll see what's going to happen here,
02:12depending on if Pacheco is going to play or not.
02:14We're hearing late November, by the way, is that next week.
02:16It's the week after for Pacheco.
02:17And then it's probably going to be more
02:19of a complementary situation.
02:20And I would think Pacheco might be the touchdown guy.
02:23He's the rougher runner, right?
02:25So we'll see how that works out.
02:26Hunt starts for me this week.
02:28We'll see.
02:30Cortland Sutton, I think this is a pretty easy one.
02:32He's come on lately, 42 receptions, 569 yards,
02:37three touchdowns.
02:38George, he's a rock solid wide receiver three.
02:41I don't think he's ever going to quite be what we thought,
02:43but it definitely seems like Bo Nix has been clicking with him.
02:47Agreed.
02:48He may not be the superstar.
02:49We thought he would be at one time.
02:50He's a good, solid wide receiver three.
02:52You know, he's a flex guy.
02:54And you said it, though, for your first sentence,
02:55he's coming on of late.
02:56Him and Nix have been at a nice little chemistry
02:59going there.
03:00And Nix has been very, very good.
03:01You're playing Atlanta this week, right?
03:03Not exactly the greatest defense.
03:04We know you can score on them.
03:06Yeah, I'm starting Sutton this week.
03:08Like I said, I'm not expecting huge things.
03:10Just give me double digit points.
03:11Touchdown was great.
03:13But I think he's a good, solid start for you.
03:15All right, Quinton Johnson, of course,
03:17he was probably cut by somebody this week.
03:18We talk about this every week.
03:19Quinton Johnson's like the most cut and added player
03:21in fantasy.
03:23Still only 20 receptions for the season.
03:25But he does have five touchdowns, George.
03:27Paces for like eight, nine touchdowns this season.
03:31I think this comes down to this.
03:33If you want to play it safe, you don't start Quinton Johnson.
03:36All right, find somebody else.
03:37But if you need points, you went up against Barkley
03:40yesterday, whatever.
03:41Who are they playing this week?
03:43That's the Bengals.
03:44How many points did the Bengals let up a game?
03:46Like 18,000.
03:47All right, so yeah, I want to start on this week.
03:49Don't get me wrong.
03:50Harbaugh is going to try and run the ball a lot, right?
03:53A lot with Dobbins and Edwards to, once again,
03:55take the air out of the ball.
03:56He doesn't want to get to a shootout here.
03:57But Cincinnati's going to score some points.
03:59Charge is going to have to throw the ball.
04:00Cincinnati can't cover anybody.
