Kirk Cousins. Remember him? Everyone was off of him after one week. Here they are all back.
00:08
Oh yeah, him. I love it. We're such a fickle kind of society. 229 and a half passing yards.
00:14
Does Kirk Cousins go over or under that number today?
00:18
I think he goes over it. And I think you have to look at, you know, what this game is going
00:22
to be, which is potentially a shootout here. So you have all the injuries to that backfield
00:26
of the Kansas City Chiefs. So a lot of people wondering about Carson Steele and about Somaji
00:31
Pirine. And the answer is it's going to be some combination. It's probably going to be
00:35
gross. And what it's going to come down to is Patrick Mahomes and Kirk Cousins throwing
00:39
the football all around. I think people were way too dismissive of the Falcons in week
00:46
one. They were playing the Steelers. Cousins hadn't played in a long time. These guys hadn't
00:50
played together. It's all the same logic of why I was concerned with the Jets in week
00:55
one. They were in a bad situation where they hadn't played together all preseason. Rogers
00:59
hadn't played in a year and things looked flat. And that's what happened in week one.
01:04
Week two certainly was much better as you look forward, right? And now you've seen even
01:09
the Jets, right? Even looking better on offense now. So it takes time for these things to
01:13
happen. It takes time for Kirk Cousins and Pitts and Drake Lund and all these pieces
01:17
to work right. And I think you are going to see that today. 229 and a half. I think it's
01:22
a very achievable number. And you know that the Chiefs offense is going to go out there
01:26
and do their job. And Mahomes knows that he's going to have to make a lot of things happen.
01:31
And don't be surprised if you don't see Mahomes run a little bit too. That's one thing too
01:34
when there's running back injuries, sometimes Mahomes is going to be less afraid to run
01:38
the ball himself or have a couple of design runs built in that playbook. So Carson Steel
01:42
is a guy you can play this week. Same with P. Ryan, but just limit your expectations.
01:47
I think Steel has more touchdown equity, P. Ryan a little bit more PPR equity, but
01:52
Daryl Williams, Darnell Williams, Charkandrick West, and we can go down the road of disappointing
01:58
backup running backs for the Kansas City Chiefs that never have paid fantasy gold or dividends.
02:02
So just temper your expectations. But I would go over for Cousins today on the passing again,
02:07
just like I did on Monday night. And we got a victory there too.
