00:00
For the Chicago Bears, that is DeAndre Swift, he gets this juicy matchup against the Carolina
00:07
Panthers.
00:08
Now there's one little caveat to this, which is the fact that the Bears don't score a lot
00:13
and the Panthers aren't really good on offense.
00:15
So the total on FanDuel is under 42.
00:19
So you're looking for yards, you're looking for catches, but like the idea that Swift's
00:23
going to score two or three touchdowns and rush for 200, you know, I don't see that happening,
00:30
but in a game that's probably going to be a little closer than the Bears want to, they're
00:33
going to be using the running game a lot.
00:36
You know, watching the game Thursday night, I kept thinking, does anybody rush for over
00:40
100 yards anymore?
00:41
Other than Derrick Henry?
00:42
He seems to do it.
00:44
But other than that, it's like a rarity, right?
00:46
It's like, oh my God, rush for a triple digits.
00:48
We just don't see that anymore.
00:49
It's just weird.
00:50
Do I think he's a must-start?
00:51
Yeah, I pretty much do as well.
00:54
I mean, he may not be for your team, maybe you're not so hurt with the boys, maybe you're
00:57
not strong running backs.
00:58
There you go.
00:59
But I do think he's a must-start this week.
01:01
I am as a low-end running back one, high-end running back two, but you're right, do I expect
01:06
two, you know, 100 yards and two touchdowns?
01:07
No.
01:08
I don't expect that from anybody.
01:09
You know, maybe out of Saquon Barkley, that's about all I might expect that from here.
01:14
So, but that being said, compared to the other running backs, yes, I am as a low-end running
01:18
back one, high-end running back two.
01:20
All right.
01:21
Now let's move over to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
01:22
They actually are playing in a game where the total is relatively high in Indianapolis,
01:26
mid-40s.
01:27
You don't see that anymore in the NFL.
01:29
Travis Etienne, the Jags fought Houston tooth and nail last week.
01:33
Etienne is still a big part of the game plan.
01:36
Simply put, 10 catches, 48 yards, that's not enough.
01:41
He's treading water for you in fantasy, but this week you would expect, if it's going
01:45
to happen, this is the week.
01:48
I would agree.
01:49
And once again, what I'll say about Etienne is, do you have better on your roster when
01:54
you're not starting him?
01:56
I mean, if you do, God bless.
01:57
You drafted him as a running back number two.
01:59
It's probably pretty much what he is.
02:02
So yeah, I'm starting him this week.
02:03
I wonder with the Jaguars if he didn't fumble that ball against the Miami Dolphins.
02:08
Right?
02:09
He doesn't make that, doesn't fumble that ball.
02:10
Is the season a little different here?
02:12
One thing to keep in mind about all the Jaguars, by the way, as far as Trevor Lawrence and
02:15
his numbers are concerned, his numbers against certain defenses are horrendous.
02:19
Cover two, awful.
02:20
But his numbers against a certain defense, cover three.
02:24
I know it's going into early advanced analytics here, but cover three, very good.
02:27
One of the best in the league.
02:29
Guess what the Colts play predominantly?
02:32
Cover three.
02:33
Just something to think about.
02:34
This could be a good week for the Jaguars in that offense.
