| 0:22.2 | week five you can always check out the column at nfl dot com slash start sit i know you have been |
| 0:27.1 | working tirelessly at this thing since what sunday afternoon i would assume right yeah start writing it |
| 0:32.6 | on sunday and uh nothing ever changes throughout the course of the week so don't worry about that |
| 0:37.2 | everything that happens on sunday is as it will be when we get to the following Sunday. That's all there's, there are all there's to it. We will go through the top starts and sits of week five. We'll tell you who's going to get into club. Dub. Plus, LeQuan Jones will be back and he will give you his top five sleepers for the week. But without any further ado, let's get into your starts and sits |
| 0:56.9 | at quarterback for week five. Of course, we're doing this after the Thursday night game has happened. |
| 1:02.8 | I know that you had Justin Fields this week, right? You were Justin Fields guy this week. I said to |
| 1:06.7 | start Justin Fields this week. Some other quarterbacks, Anthony Richardson, Kirk Cousin, C.J. Stroud, who's been playing out of his mind right now. And I think Jordan Love is in play. Although I know you don't love him this week, Marcus. Some sits, Trevor Lawrence against the bills, Joe Burrow, because he just doesn't look like Joe Burrow right now. Russell Wilson and Brock Purdy in a tough |
| 1:28.0 | matchup against the Cowboys. So Danger Russ, who's been playing well is on the sit list. Let's talk |
| 1:32.9 | about some guys on the start list. Kirk Cousins going against the Kansas City Chiefs. Last week, |
| 1:37.9 | Cousins had his worst game of the season, just 139 passing yards, but you think he bounces |
| 1:43.4 | back against KC? It's so ironic that he had his worst game of the season, and it9 passing yards, but you think he bounces back against KC? |
| 1:45.0 | It's so ironic that he had his worst game of the season and it's the only game that the Vikings have won so far this season. |
| 1:50.0 | But that is the whole thing. They're playing the Kansas City Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes. |
| 1:56.0 | They're going to have to put up points. They're likely going to be playing catch up. |
| 2:00.0 | And that is when Kirk Cousins is at his best for fantasy purposes. It was his first game last week with fewer than 340 passing yards. The Chiefs, their secondary is tough, but we know that this Vikings defense could put up points. They did it against the Eagles. I'm expecting a game similar to that in week two where the other team goes off against the Vikings defense. And then Kirk Cousins is like, well, I guess I got to try to match that. This game has the makings of a score fest if both these offenses do what we think they are capable of doing. Also, you got Patrick Mahomes on the other side coming off of one of his worst games in a long time too. So we'll see if those quarterbacks can get back on the good foot. |
| 2:36.1 | Do we see Taylor Swift there? |
