| 0:00.0 | Welcome everyone to the score fantasy football podcast. |
| 0:17.5 | I'm your host, Justin Boone. |
| 0:19.1 | Appreciate you tuning in. |
| 0:20.6 | I will admit we're a little tight for |
| 0:22.5 | time today, so we've got no long intros here. I know the charges fired Brandon Staley. I mean, |
| 0:27.6 | what did you expect after that performance last night? And without Justin Herbert, you're going to |
| 0:32.3 | need to be really careful about how you're valuing these chargers moving forward for fantasy. |
| 0:37.3 | Easton Stick, he is not the answer. Even though people are going to look at it, they're going to say he put up a bunch of garbage time stats, you know, they were down big in the second half. That made it a little easier on him, but I don't even think it's worth spending enough time to go over a full segment on all that charger stuff right now. So we're just going to jump right into the injury updates. And we will start with quarterbacks. C.J. Stroud, he's in concussion protocol. He is doubtful for Sunday's game. And that means Davis Mills is getting the start. And that is not good news for anybody other than I guess the Titans defense. So all the Texans are taking a hit here, but you likely aren't relying on anybody in this offense right now anyway because tank Dells hurt and he's out for the rest of the year. |
| 1:18.4 | Nico Collins is banged up. |
| 1:19.8 | He's not going to play this week. |
| 1:21.3 | The receivers are going to be led by Noah Brown, who he's been held catchless in his last two games since he came back from injury. The backfield there's unpredictable. That makes Devin Singletary, Damien Pierce. They're just risky flexes and not to spoil the tight end section, but Dalton Schultz, he's back. So I guess maybe he's worth streaming, but the matchup, that's not really great for him not really excited about that |
| 1:44.3 | Texans offense this week I mean can you tell I am not high on the Texans right |
| 1:48.2 | now Gino Smith so he's back to practice this week after he missed that game |
| 1:52.4 | with a groin strain apparently he also had a bruised throwing arm because today he |
| 1:56.8 | told reporters that both those things are feeling better right now and he's |
| 2:00.7 | gotten round-the-clock physical therapy treatment. So that's the reason why he is feeling a little bit better. And when they asked him if he was going to play on Monday night versus the Eagles, he just said, we'll see. But normally injured players don't talk to the media. So I would expect that he is probably going to play since they let him do that press conference. And this is a nice spot for him, actually. The Eagles, they surprisingly give up the most fantasy points to quarterbacks. They're a pass funnel. So all signs are really pointing to Gino putting his receivers to work in this one. And I see him as a low end QB1 this week. And I like all three of those receivers too for fantasy but I talked |
| 2:35.3 | about them on Wednesday I talked about them on Thursday both those shows I went over it so you can |
| 2:39.8 | check out my thoughts there if you want to know more about those Seahawks wide outs |
| 2:43.2 | Kyler Murray so he's been limited in practice with a thumb issue but Jonathan Gannon he |
| 2:48.3 | suggested that it's just maintenance so Murray's going to be good to go |
| 2:51.5 | it's a tough matchup with the 49ers he's more of a risky streamer this week than really a quality |
| 2:57.0 | fantasy option I would be sitting him if you can Jake Browning so he's been on the injury |
