00:00Jalen Waddell has just 45 receptions for 601 yards and two touchdowns, and Tyree Kill,

00:06you know, he looks like Tyree Kill, they just don't throw him the ball. It seems to me,

00:11and I know we talked about this last week, George, that they're just not going to allow

00:14Tua to drop back, wait, and bomb. You know, he's just gonna throw it to A-Chain over the

00:19middle, or he's gonna throw it to John U. Smith, or if Jalen Waddell gets open quick,

00:22or Tyree, great. But those long bomb passing plays that, you know, Tua drops back, waits,

00:27throws, that hasn't been in the playbook. No, I think you're reading it correctly. They don't

00:33want him taking those hits here. I mean, for Tyree, you've sort of been saved the last three

00:38to last four weeks because he has had that touchdown. So you've got the touchdown deodorant

00:41here. You got lucky last week with the deflected ball that he caught in the end zone. So I think

00:45that got you 20 points for him. But he hasn't had over 100 yards since week one. Week one.

00:50All right, and that was on that big play versus Jacksonville. I think it was a 60-yard bomb,

00:54if I remember correctly there. Other than that, I mean, a lot of the numbers are ugly here. Some

00:57in the 20s, a couple of 40s, an 8. I mean, it's just, it's not pretty here. It is better with

01:02Tua. It's better. But as you said, you're not getting those big plays in because he's not

01:07dropping back, waiting for it. It's all little plays. You have to hope Tyree breaks a tackle

01:10or two, and that's how he takes it to the house. Two years ago, fantasy football MVP, very clear,

01:16it was Debo Samuel, had almost 2,000 yards between rushing and receiving. What reason

01:21would you possibly have to not take Debo Samuel in a fantasy league, George? These numbers are

01:28shocking for the season. I mean, they are shocking. 38 receptions, 531 yards, and one

01:34touchdown in a season where Christian McCaffrey basically did not play? I mean, I know that Debo

01:42missed a game too. This one, to me, did not see coming. And the 49ers couldn't have seen coming.

01:48They signed this guy to a long-term extension immediately after that season as well.

01:53Yeah, been a major bust, right? You said no McCaffrey, no Iyuki. We think, okay,

01:56he's the number one target now. Here we go. I mean, Jawan Jennings has done well. I mean,

02:00maybe defense are taking him out. I can certainly see that. Kittle's been banged up too and missed

02:04some games. I'm sure that's hurt as well as all the attention has been on him, but you expected

02:08more. I do think there's injuries involved here too, and he can play through them, but I don't

02:12think he's anywhere near 100% either here. I also think this, Craig, I think the Niners move on from

02:17him after the season. I think they know they got to make some cuts because they got to sign

02:20Purdy to a massive contract, and I think Debo's going to be that guy who's going to be on the

02:24outs. You know, I think they know Jawan Jennings pretty good. I mean, we drafted Ricky Pierce,

02:28so he looks good. We got to make cuts somewhere. You know, it's sort of like when the Cowboys

02:31moving up in front of Murray Cooper. You know, you got to do what you got to do to afford everybody,

02:35so I think Debo could find himself in another uniform after this season.

02:39That would be crazy. All right, we went into the year thinking that Josh Allen's got to throw to

02:43someone, but that really didn't turn out to be true. I mean, I guess he threw to a couple of

02:48wide receivers, but he throws to himself, right? He throws it up. They pass it. It hits somebody,

02:52and then he catches it and scores a touchdown. I think we learned our lesson here with the

02:56Buffalo Bills. They're never going to have a tight end one. You know, that's just never going to

03:01happen. It doesn't matter who they have there. Dalton Kincaid's very talented, George, but I

03:05mean, Tucker Craft is having a better year than Dalton Kincaid. 356 receiving yards. He has just

03:11two touchdowns. They even went as far as to add a Murray Cooper to the roster, too. This is without

03:17Stephon Diggs, so I think just we learned our lesson, and it's not that you can't go back to

03:23a player, but Dalton Kincaid is not going to be the Gronk of the Bills. It ain't happening.

03:28No, this is extremely disappointing. I know I have a ticket on Kincaid to get over his touchdown prop,

03:33which is not going to come close. I think it was seven and a half offhand, so that's not hitting.

03:37I think most of us thought, I think the thought was logical. It made sense. No Diggs. No Davis.

03:44You didn't really replace those guys with anybody, right? Shakir, nothing great here. So,

03:50hey, it's going to be a strong Kincaid guy, Kincaid year, right? He's going to have to

03:54throw the Kincaid all the time. Big target over the middle. Good tight end. Hasn't worked out,

03:58you know, and what did Tom Brady's ex complain about a couple of years ago that Brady can't

04:02throw the ball and catch the ball? So not true. All right, Josh Allen proved that you can throw

04:08the ball and catch the ball and get a touchdown out of it. So, I mean, listen, Josh Allen's having

04:12a great season. He's made, you know, what was it? Chicken salad out of chicken, whatever.

04:16So, good for him. The likely MVP favorite right now, but yeah, Kincaid, extremely disappointing.

04:24Let's run through some streaming defenses if we could right before we take a break here,

04:28and I'm going to give you some options here, George Screaming. We got the Saints taking on

04:32the Giants this week. I know the matchup looks good, but it is on the road, man,

04:36and then when the Saints are away from home, I get nervous. Eagles' defense has been fantastic

04:40lately. They seem to be shutting down everyone and sacking the quarterback a ton. Got the Cardinals

04:45going up against the Seattle Seahawks. Possibility there. They seem to have some good opportunity

04:50interceptions, fumble recoveries, and then you have the Dolphins now without Brees Hall, I guess,

04:55taking on the Jets. Dolphins are in a great spot here for this game,

04:59but their defense hasn't been good all season.

05:03I was, you know, before we mentioned that, Phil Dove is the one I want, right? You said they're

05:07playing great. They look really good here. Arizona, no thanks. Miami, okay, no. Well,

05:12maybe Rodgers will throw some picks. He sucks anyway, and I think about the other,

05:16New Orleans, the hot one, but aren't they a bad team too?
