What's up everybody? I am your host, Raymond Summerlin, and I am joined today as I am every single Thursday by Rich Rebar

to discuss the Thursday night game as well as the most interesting data points from his

weekly worksheet column. After that, we will hear from Nick Minzio, who has all the most

important starts and sits for week two of the fantasy football season. Before all of that,

however, I would like to remind

you to rate and review the podcast wherever you find it it helps other people find the show

and it helps us in the ranking so we very very much appreciate it with that out of the way

let's get to it what's up rich what's going on ray we had a Ray? We had a pretty good week one, you know, on this podcast.

You know, we do have to pour one out for Danny Woodhead. But the picks were fire last week. I mean, Wood had still led the team in receptions, oddly enough. So we have that to latch on to you. But everyone was good, man. Everyone is good. Sam Bradford looked like the greatest quarterback ever seen through all football on Monday night there.

He put the ball wherever we wanted. It was pretty

insane. I don't think I've seen San Bradford ever quite play like we did on Monday night. Part of it

was the Saints, but that dude just could not miss though. You know, we talked about it on the Monday

podcast about how upsetting it is to see a player that you touted all

offseason, go out on the first drive and do exactly what you expected him to do in the

offense, and then pop his hamstring is going to be gone for four, eight weeks, whatever.

It's just there's nothing worse. There's just nothing worse than that. Actually, there might be something worse than that. And that is the game that we're going to see on Thursday night between the Texans and the Bengals. You know, we were thinking about what we could do to start the show. Last year, we did news first, and we thought maybe we could do that again. But news and podcast form is not great because, you know, much of it's outdated. We record this on Wednesday afternoon, so much of it would be outdated by the time people listen. And so that brought us the idea of previewing the Thursday night game. You know, most people listen to this during the day, get ready for the Thursday night games. We thought that made some sense. You know, unfortunately, we had this idea on the eve of just a

horrifically bad matchup. And the over-under in this game is 38. Both teams are obviously

coming off dreadful offensive performances, offensive in both meanings of the word there.

Houston is starting a rookie quarterback who may be hurt behind a terrible offensive line.

They do not have a tight end, a healthy tight end on the roster whose name I've ever

heard of before.

It might be an ugly, ugly game.
