| 0:00.0 | Welcome, everyone to the score fantasy football live. We are heading into week six. |
| 0:18.5 | I am your host, Justin Boone, the lead fantasy analyst at the score. Always appreciate you joining me. I want to get to as many of your questions as possible today. My original plan was trying to just skim through the injuries as quick as possible, hit in a couple start sits, and then we'll do questions for most of the show. But guess what? It doesn't always work out like that, right? So we have a ton of injuries. Even more got piled on this morning. So we got to talk about those. And then we also have a trade this morning. Zach Ertz getting dealt to the Cardinals. And I mean, that's probably where we should start here, right? I think it's a win-win for everybody involved pretty much. I mean, |
| 0:54.6 | we wanted to see this happen before the season. We wanted Eirch to go to a team like the Bills or |
| 1:00.0 | like the Cardinals who did need some help at tight end. And now he's going to this offense where |
| 1:05.5 | one of the best passing attacks in the league, which is absolutely great for him, right, |
| 1:10.4 | coming from Philly, |
| 1:11.3 | where he's splitting time with Dallas Goddard. |
| 1:13.3 | And we saw a guy like Max Williams out there in this offense over the first five weeks. |
| 1:18.4 | I mean, he's on IR now, but Max Williams had a couple really big games, seven catches, |
| 1:22.8 | 94 yards in one game, had five catches and 66 yards in another. And Eertz is just so much more |
| 1:30.2 | talented than Max Williams. So it's a great landing spot for him. Yeah, it does hurt DeAndre |
| 1:35.9 | Hopkins a little bit and, you know, maybe the breakouts for a guy like, you know, Rondell Moore |
| 1:40.2 | or seeing Christian Kirk maybe do more, AJ Green, they get bumped down. |
| 1:44.3 | Their ceilings get bumped down a little bit because this is a spread offense, right? |
| 1:47.5 | They're going to get everybody involved. |
| 1:48.7 | And we've already been seeing that. |
| 1:50.2 | That's why DeAndre Hopkins values taken a bit of a hit this year because he's not |
| 1:54.8 | getting those 12, 14, 16 target games anymore. |
| 1:59.0 | He doesn't have to. |
| 2:00.1 | But great news for Kyler Murray as well, getting to see |
| 2:04.3 | him have just another weapon out there in that offense. Now they're running, you know, five deep, |
| 2:09.1 | really six deep, if you want to count Chase Edmonds. And then on the other side of things for |
