I'm going to go and Hello and welcome to episode 769 of the official established the run dot-com podcast my name is Adam Levitan I am one of the co-founder here at ETR and we are coming off of a upside over safety kind of week.

0:32.0

Yes, that's right. I thought it was a bit of a strange week one

0:35.0

DFS slate as there were a lot of great plays but really no screaming

0:39.8

smashes outside of Tyrike Hill and the big thing about week one is we obviously know

0:45.6

the least we'll know all season.

0:48.2

Today, now the Tuesday after week one,

0:50.8

we know exponentially more about the usage and injuries and everything else

0:55.1

than we did just five days ago. So yeah coming into the season coming into week one I

0:59.7

thought Drake London would be a target hog for a past-centric Falcon's team, but I wasn't certain of it.

1:06.7

2:04.3

You can read the lineup review for more on that.

2:06.8

It's free on the site.

2:08.0

But of course, it could have gone really bad too.

2:09.7

I mean, there's plenty of weeks where I have gut feelings. you know, more on that in a second, and these
