Hello and welcome to PFF FF FF football podcast. I'm going to host Ian Hartz and today we got 10 questions. One of the best people in this industry ladies and gentlemen co founder of established the run.

The goat of the fancy football industry himself, Evan, freaking soba. You can find him on Twitter at Evan so the Evan happy happy week 13 man.

What's up Ian? Yeah, man, we're flying through this season. I feel like this, you know, this last like four or five weeks stretch is always brutal because there are so few buys and so many games to cover and we've never had this, you know, influx of injury report concerns, you know, with the addition of the coach.

The coven factor. So it's it's a lot of work, but it's it's been fun. It's very, very rewarding. If you are willing to put in the work, I think that the hardest working individuals are the ones that are going to succeed, especially down this what five week final stretch where, you know, there's only two teams left that have a single buy.

Yeah, I'm sure when you're writing your matchups, calm, you know, I've had these articles where I'm used to writing, you know, 13, 14 sections, you add on those last two men, the full 16 games, who adds up certainly does. So everyone as we usually do on our Thursday podcast episode, I have 10 questions that I've given Evan. He has prepared some statements and we're going to just talk through them.

Check out the Wednesday edition of this podcast. You want to hear a game by game breakdown and I'm also being on Friday to talk about some injuries to look at at, you know, going into the weekend. So without further ado, let's get to it. Number one, man, taste some hill.

He's two and host of starter. He's making his presence follows a rusher. It's not a disaster by any stretch. Life is generally good in New Orleans forever except the album, Camara. I mean, he was once on pace to shatter CMC's reception record. Now we're wondering if he could hit 81 receptions for the fourth consecutive season inexplicably.

Do you see a turnaround coming for Camara in terms of fancy land as long as hill remains under center? Are we just looking at a borderline RB1 moving forward?

Yeah, I, are we even convinced that he's a borderline RB1?

Oh, at this point. I mean, yeah, I know it's, it's like it's shocking to our system because I mean for the first what 11 weeks of the season,

Alvin Camara was the clear cut RB1 overall play and then all of a sudden it's like a new season for Alvin Camara and Drew breeze had with like 11 fractured ribs and a punctured lung and we can't really expect him back anytime soon and either winning with

a hill. So they're probably not going to throw in James Winston either the two compounding factors working against Alvin Camara number one. The fact that Taisam Hill is a true dual threat quarterback and over the years as we've seen,

you know, dual threat quarterbacks 10 not to like this has been the problem with David Johnson and even Duke Johnson and Houston like dual threat quarterbacks 10 to run in, you know,

situations where Drew breeze or Philip Rivers or Tom Brady would stand there and check down number one and number two, just the team, the overall team pass attempts have plummeted going from, you know,

they've been they've changed their offense. You know, Michael Thomas very much has experienced that he had a good first game with Taisam Hill, but then had with like four for 50 scoreless last week and he's like a

wide receiver three and Latavius Murray has really started to become almost the engine of the offense and, you know, it feels uncomfortable to say, but I think that his value is like almost on R with Alvin Camara's at this point.

It's wild the same man, but I think you nailed it right now both will Taisam Hill have more rush attempts inside the 10 yard line than Camara. Yeah, man, it's the receptions that you know on every mind, but to your point, these goal line, the lack of goal line rushing opportunities are not

hoping at all because this year Camara, he actually had, I believe, six scores inside the five yard line like he was getting that touchdown regression we were hoping for after you know last season, where he's getting pretty unlucky with it.

He's not to worry about Taisam Hill maybe coming in for a snout for two inside the 10 he's out there all the freaking time now. So one interesting thing I found he only has one catcher the past two weeks, but on the season he still has 10 additional catches on swings, screens, bubbles and like jet sweeps like this type of manufacture stuff like, you know, Sean Piedes not an idiot, they should be able to get Camara one of their best players. These design touches like I know you're saying like based on what we've seen a Tim and Latavius looking pretty even, but come on, we will see this receptions spike a little bit right.

I hope I hope I mean, it's someone that you know I never wavered off having Alvin Camara is what a top four, fantasy pick and wound up there for because a lot of people moved them down during the contract thing and the what was it the same thing with Dalvin could the thing in the back.

The back thing oh yeah, he's scary back thing right before season started yeah yeah, so people were like you know jamming them down their list and I we never moved them I wound up getting them on a bunch of my late late draft teams so I hope that Sean Peyton figures it out, but he's been you know I mean I mean what's really there to figure out though I mean the Saints are crushing in their current form and their defense is a lead to I mean there is crazy out every year their defense starts.

Start starts off the season like first six seven weeks it's a trotious all of a sudden boom they get it together and like there you know a top five defense the rest of the way it's happening again this year.
