00:00 I want to talk about George Kittle actually.

00:05 I don't know how you feel about Kittle.

00:07 I think Kittle is sort of like a stock that is a good time to buy in on.

00:12 If you look at Mark Andrews, Mark Andrews didn't play in forever.

00:16 He came back.

00:17 He had four catches.

00:18 Yes he did.

00:19 We talked about Kansas City's defense being very bend but don't break.

00:23 I think they're going to be very concerned, Kansas City, about the big play.

00:28 They know, listen, we've got to worry about McCaffrey but Samuel is freaking fast.

00:33 Don't let him get past us.

00:35 Then you've got IU, who is their number one wide receiver.

00:39 We haven't even gotten to George Kittle yet.

00:40 George Kittle is going to be dancing over the middle of the field here.

00:44 I think he can rack up the catches more so than the yards.

00:47 I like George Kittle's receptions.

00:50 Like I said, Mark Andrews had four.

00:51 He only had 31 yards but he had four catches.

00:54 I wouldn't be shocked at all if Kittle has six, seven catches in this game for only like

00:58 50 yards or something.

01:00 You know what I'm saying?

01:01 Absolutely and I agree with that.

01:02 Kittle is going to be one of your check down players in this match up.

01:05 Because you've got IU and you know Brock Purdy, that's his guy down field.

01:08 So he's already going to be rolling that side.

01:10 Then you have Debo and you're going to hit him with the jet sweeps.

01:12 You're going to hit him around the perimeter.

01:14 That's going to be your guy.

01:15 McCaffrey, well he gets the job done.

01:16 Play in, play out.

01:17 Whether he's hitting the back field, blown up three yards back, he's going to get you

01:20 an extra three, four yards.

01:22 Kittle is the one guy on the field when it comes to the passing game where you can find

01:26 him just about anywhere on the field and he's going to be there.

01:29 He's a big body.

01:30 He's going to be there to snag some receptions.

01:32 I do love where you're at with that.

01:34 My head registering to that, I wasn't necessarily there until you brought it up regarding receptions.

01:38 I was kind of more on an over under type of reception.

01:41 I like him to score a touchdown as well.

01:43 I am not against that as either.

01:44 He's another red zone type of guy that you're going to connect with.

01:46 Plus 187 range, right?

01:47 Exactly.

01:48 Plus 185, plus 190.

01:49 What do you think about George Kittle's impact on this football game?

01:52 Well, okay.

01:53 So we love McCaffrey.

01:55 We love Kittle.

01:56 We love Debo.

01:57 No, I didn't say Debo yet.

01:58 I'm going to talk about the guy I want to fade.

02:03 Those are the two guys I like.

02:04 McCaffrey and Kittle.

02:05 Iuk's the guy I want to fade.

02:07 And I have no problem fading Debo either.

02:10 But I certainly think that Kittle's an inviting target for Purdy and we'll have his opportunities

02:18 here.

02:19 Big plays on the outside.

02:22 And Debo, again, if you're going Debo, I'd rather have him passing or receiving yards

02:27 under than rushing and receiving yards under because I think he's going to get a chance

02:31 to run the football here.

02:32 I agree with that.

02:33 For either of these guys.

02:34 But, you know, and maybe the same thing with Iuk.

02:37 But neither one, Kansas City's defensive game plan all year has been don't give up the big

02:42 play.

02:43 That doesn't change here.

02:44 You know?

02:45 And so I would look at the two wide receivers as guys to maybe bet some unders or bet against

02:51 as opposed to McCaffrey or Kittle.
