0:00.0	Wavrewire Week 5. Let's talk to the pros.
0:21.2	Welcome in everybody to Fantasy Pro's. This is the Fantasy Football podcast.
0:24.6	It's me, Joey P. Joe P. Zapia. And today, it's about the Wavrewire. It's Week 5.
0:29.8	A lot of injuries yesterday, a lot of running backs going down. We're going to try to help you find those players
0:34.8	to somehow plug into your lineups to help you sustain all these injuries because there were a lot of guys who did not play
0:40.7	unfortunately. And I wish there were more names on the Wavrewire, but we're going to see if we could dig deep
0:45.2	and find some of those players that can help you this week and maybe even beyond. Pat Fitzmore's joins me today
0:50.8	to talk about all of that. And also from Yahoo, the great Scott P. Anowski is also here. So Scott,
0:56.0	I'm going to press the guest right at the top. Who has a brighter future in the NFL?
0:59.9	Gino Smith or Baker Mayfield go.

1:21.2	fourth quarter. The cheat code of this offense should be Christian McCaffrey in space and offensive
1:26.3	court and your band back and back and do refuses to go down that path. You know, this is success as many
1:31.1	parents so does failure. It's not all Baker Mayfield's fault, but man, I can't stand this team. I try
1:37.9	to rewatch every game during the week. I've carol lining games. I just can't do it. I can't watch the
1:42.0	Bears games. I can't watch the Panthers games. They're just too depressing to me. I have a lot of DJ
1:45.8	Moore and it's killing me. So you're Gino Smith, man. I mean, I know everybody looks good with the
1:50.9	Lions, right? They lead the league and points that lead the league and allowing points of
1:54.2	ultimate NFL carnival. But for two straight weeks, Gino Smith has distributed the ball to who we
1:59.1	want him distributed the ball to. He's getting touchdowns to his tight ends. All I want with Seattle,
