00:00Same game, opposing teams, you got Cade Otten, the Bucks have Baltimore, you have Mark Andrews,

00:08the Ravens have Tampa Bay, but you're going to have to wait for this one here, but which

00:12one would you choose?

00:13You know, it's funny because I think Andrews has more touchdown equity.

00:17The interesting thing is that Cade Otten's just on the field a ton.

00:21So you know, the snap percentage, he's well into the 85, 90% on average range.

00:27So he's on the field so much.

00:28Now that means by default, he gets some looks, but he's still tight end 20 on the year.

00:34So I'm going to roll the dice here on this one, and I'm going to go with Mark Andrews

00:38and hope that we're finally getting him to build out.

00:40You know, last week on the show, if you recall, we broke out Mark Andrews.

00:44Remember, we called the touchdown for us.

00:46We got it, broke out Sam Laporta.

00:48We were talking about this is the tight ends coming home to the fantasy rosters and making

00:52good on all the draft capital.

00:54And we were right about it.

00:55We nailed that.

00:56And I think we're going to continue to build on that here.

00:57And I think when you're looking at the last two weeks for him, yeah, just seven catches

01:01total, but over 100 yards and a touchdown, I think things are getting a little better.

01:06You have to understand, maybe Mark Andrews is the guy who's going to be on the field

01:0950% of the time.

01:10But even though Cade Otten's on the field almost twice as much, I don't think he carries

01:15the same kind of touchdown equity that Andrews is.

01:17So I'm going to chase that touchdown at tight end.

01:19All right.

01:20If you're just joining us, Fantasy Sports Today, Matt Strager sitting speaking with

01:23Joe Pizzapia, the author of the fantasy black book.

01:26It's available right now.

01:27So thank you so much for getting your start, sit questions in here and it's time to talk

01:30quarterbacks and Joe, you personally sat down and wrote the quarterback entries to the black

01:34book and you continue to do so throughout the update.

01:37So perfect guy with whom to speak.

01:39Kirk Cousins has a great cherry match up there, I say against Seattle, Kyler Murray against

01:44the Chargers.

01:45Now I know from earlier in the show and earlier shows that you're beginning to sour on one

01:49and really rise on the other start, sit Kirk Cousins or Kyler Murray.

01:54I already told you guys at the top of the show.

01:57I've lost my confidence in Kyler Murray and Kirk Cousins has been really good.

02:01Cousins right now is QB 18 of fantasy points per game, 12th in yards per attempt, but everything

02:06is going in the right direction as a trend.

02:08And I think that is very important too.

02:11And when you look at Seattle's past defense since week four against Brock Purdy, Jared

02:15Goff, Daniel Jones, they've allowed the highest yards per attempt and the second most passing

02:20touchdown.

02:21So that's a good recipe for fantasy points when it comes to Kirk Cousins.

02:23So give me Cousins in this one today.

02:25I feel very confident about Cousins and I think Gino is a good start in this game too.

02:30Both of those guys, I would start over Kyler Murray.

02:32I know Kyler has the rushing equity that we all covet.

02:35It's very exciting.

02:36He gives those video game highlight real play sometimes, but enough.

02:41I want consistency and Kyler has been all over the board.

02:45The passing yards have been low and I'm really concerned that Harbaugh is going to have some

02:49confusion in there and give him some problems and that's going to lead to another disappointing

02:53day as opposed to one of the great days from Kyler Murray.

02:56I liked him against the 49ers.

02:57I made no bones about it.

02:58He always shows up to play them, but against a coach like Harbaugh, I think he's going

03:01to have some other things for him to struggle with and that defense for the Chargers has

03:03been much improved year over year.

03:06All right.

03:07Good stuff as always from you, Joey P. Let's keep the quarterback conversation going here

03:11now.

03:12Deshaun Watson has Cincinnati, Tyler Huntley is at Indianapolis.

03:16We can have a conversation about start-sit, but also a broader game script conversation

03:21for both these games.

03:22So who stands out to you?

03:25Oh, this is very difficult here because the matchup on paper should be.

03:32Now I know why Marge Simpson makes that noise.

03:34You know, well, I mean, you know, look, Deshaun Watson at this point, you would think that

03:40against the Cincinnati Bengals with the name Deshaun Watson, that that's where you'd run

03:45to, but I don't know if it's a slam dunk and you've taken away, you know, Amari Cooper

03:49now.

03:50So that's one of the bigger weapons in this offense and Nick Chubb's coming back.

03:54So that's exciting to a certain degree is going to be limited, maybe 10 touches in this

03:58game.

03:59We'll see, but I just can't get there.

04:02And I think the Browns are going to be competitive in this game.

04:04I think that, you know, Joe Burrow always seems to struggle against the Cleveland Browns.

04:08I think I would roll the dice with Tyler Huntley and I know that's kind of really surprising,

04:12but I just, I've seen that Colts defense just give up so many fancy points, the quarterbacks

04:15and so many fancy points across the board, take my chances with the weapons he's got

04:19to elevate his value.
