Welcome everyone to the score fantasy football podcast. I'm your host, Justin Boone.

Great to have you hanging out with us as we continue to get prepared for week nine. Hopefully, already took a look at my updated week nine rankings that went up earlier today. I'll be tinkering with those throughout the day. I'll make sure that they're all updated before the Thursday nighter kicks off. I always tweet them out too once I'm done with that update. So be on the lookout for that. For now, though, we your questions. That's what we're here to go over. So let's get right to it. And we've grouped a few similar questions together for some of these. So the first one is at JJ Rack. Chuba Hubbard is high in your rankings. What's gonna happen in the Carolina backfield is Miles Sanders washed and then at JD underscore

game time based on the usage last week against the Texans do you think Hubbard has officially

1:01.1

taken over the starting role in Carolina or do you think Sanders lack of touches is due to

1:05.9

potential lingering injuries so often teams use their by weeks to address some of the issues that they

1:13.3

have. And that's why we see some changes happen normally coming out of the buy weeks. And I know

1:18.6

Sanders has dealt with injuries, but he's also been pretty ineffective this year. And coming out of

1:23.4

the buy, the quotes from the coaching staff before last week's game, they were all in favor

1:28.1

a Hubbard. And then we see Sanders play a season low 17% of the snaps in week eight. He only

1:34.0

comes out of that game with two touches. I mean, meanwhile, Hubbard gets 17 touches. He has 67%

1:40.9

of the playing time. And the production wasn't great from Hubbard. Don't get me wrong,

1:45.3

but I think at best now, this is telling us that the coaching staff sees Hubbard as the better

1:50.0

player at the moment. And I think that means it's probably going to be at best like a 60-40

1:55.2

split in favor of Hubbard. And if week eight was any indication, I think Hubbard is going

2:00.4

to be that lead back the rest of the season.

2:02.4

And he could be well ahead of Sanders.

2:04.7

And that might turn Sanders into a mere backup for fantasy purposes.

2:08.7

So I don't think that Sanders is washed, but he doesn't have that Eagles offensive line paving the way for him anymore.

2:14.9

And maybe the injuries have sapped some of his effectiveness this season.

2:18.8

But Hubbard, he was productive at times last year after they traded away Christian

2:22.7

McCaffrey.

2:23.7

Hubbard got some work alongside Deontov Form in there.
