00:02 - All right, let's go to wide receivers now.

00:04 Wide receiver 34 and 35, standing next to one another.

00:07 Jordan Addison against Kansas City,

00:10 Tutu Atwell against Philadelphia.

00:12 Now we've talked about the fact that Atwell

00:14 may be the one that will feel

00:17 the Cooper Cup return the most,

00:19 but Joe, your thoughts?

00:21 - Yeah, I think that is the person

00:24 who is the loser of the group here,

00:25 which is unfortunate,

00:26 because Tutu Atwell has been really good,

00:29 I think around, unexpectedly so.

00:30 He's one of these guys you end up the waiver wire,

00:33 and you just keep throwing them out there,

00:34 and he keeps getting a double digit points,

00:35 and you're loving it.

00:36 But there's only so many targets that go around,

00:38 I think now all of a sudden,

00:39 you have to thread that needle even smaller

00:42 for Tutu Atwell with Cooper Cup returning.

00:45 Cooper Cup has an enormous target share

00:47 when he's at his peak.

00:48 Now, will he see the full Cooper Cup workload?

00:50 Maybe not, but Puka Nukua,

00:52 and the stats of the day that we were bringing out.

00:54 I mean, what he's done has been historic

00:56 here to open the season.

00:57 You can't start to take targets away from him at that cost.

01:01 So something's got to give here in this offense.

01:03 And I think what gives here

01:04 is a little bit of Tutu Atwell, unfortunately.

01:06 And Jordan Addison is playing in a high total game.

01:09 Jordan Addison has been a player that you've seen.

01:12 He hasn't been on the field as much as KJ Osborne,

01:14 but in some ways he's been more productive.

01:16 So I think it's time that you might have necessity

01:18 for Jordan Addison.

01:19 He has touchdown equity in this game,

01:21 which you always love.

01:22 So I would go with Jordan Addison here,

01:23 play the total.

01:25 Kirk Cousins has three 300-yard games so far this season.

01:28 So the volume potential is there.

01:30 You got to imagine Patrick Mahomes

01:32 on the other side of this game

01:33 is going to put some points on the board

01:35 and look better than he did last week

01:37 against a Minnesota Vikings defense

01:39 that's frankly not very good,

01:40 and plays a lot of man coverage,

01:42 and they shouldn't be playing man coverage

01:43 with the personnel they have.

01:44 There it is, I said it.

01:46 It is what it is.

01:47 We move on.

01:48 But I think Addison's that guy

01:49 that has more upside in this game.

01:50 So I'm going to play the upside and the total with Addison.
