00:03 All right, well, now the Carolina Panthers also have another wide

00:07 receiving option to go to, and it hasn't been great.

00:11 Let's just call it what it is, fantasy sleeper, I guess, Vinny.

00:14 At the beginning of the season,

00:16 Jonathan Mingo did not turn out to be that sleeper.

00:18 His total is 31.5 receiving yards over on the FanDuel Sportsbook.

00:23 I could see a better year for him coming next year, Vinny.

00:26 I'm just not so sure that this is a side that I wanna go on tonight.

00:30 And if I did, would it be the under?

00:31 >> No, I think the one way you look at with Jonathan Mingo,

00:36 the one thing we have to keep in mind here is they're pretty depleted at wide

00:40 receivers as well.

00:40 The injuries have not spared that position.

00:43 DJ Chark and Levis Cushino are out, so he's basically your second option,

00:48 other than Hayden Hurst to Adam Thielen.

00:50 So these guys are probably gonna be busy in the passing game.

00:53 And you look at this, and look, the number keeps going a little bit lower here.

00:57 And if it's low and it's not a real high expectation there,

01:01 I think you feel better about it, right?

01:03 I mean, they're gonna have to pass for some yards.

01:05 And you look at the distribution, if you're looking at 70 around that as your

01:09 base for Adam Thielen, you get 35 for him.

01:13 I mean, I think Bryce Young will throw for more than 150 yards in this game,

01:17 hopefully.

01:18 But that would set up Mingo to go over this number,

01:21 because there's not a lot of targets right now in this offense that are reliable.

01:25 And I think he has a chance for a big play in this one as well.
