Week six was great if you could avoid the injuries. Like I almost scored 200 points and I'm going to be moving to five and one with my team. But if you add Puka, if you add Ibuka, I mean hell, if you add it to the list of injuries we've already dealt with, rest in peace. We'll talk about everything that happened, including each game and update the rankings for you.
Starting off with the worst game of the year, the Denver Broncos and the New York Jets. Europeans, I'm sorry it gets better than this. All right, but for y'all, we gave you the crap. And with the Denver Broncos offense, Bo Knicks still remains as a streaming quarterback in good matchups, you can play him. Obviously, these overseas games, it's very difficult to just translate this one for one of what it's going to mean for future production. What we can do is we can look at the running back usage and see that JK Dobbins still absolutely dominates here in terms of opportunities. Dobbins does have 14 carries in comparison to R.J. Harvey with two. Now, R.J. Harvey does get utilized as the receiving bag. You can check out this chart from PFF which will show you that Dobbins had everything in short yardage, had the majority of snaps in early downs, but RJ Harvey had just as many snaps on third downs, but you did see some Julio Mcgofflin as well. Reality, you start Dobbins as a low-end RB2, too. RJ Harvey is still just a late season upside bet. Evan Ingram is trending in the right direction. This was a Broncos high for him in terms of snap rate. In terms of what he gave you fantasy points-wise, he had six targets, five receptions, 42 receiving yards. He does go into the mix as a low-end tight end one, highend tight end two in the big tier of like the crap tight ends. And then Coron Sutton gives you a down performance with only one reception for 17 receiving yards. We see that Sutton has mixed in these games in the past. We saw this, I believe, back in week two earlier this year. And we had this against the New Orleans Saints in like the weird Thursday game last season. So it seems like Corin Sutton in like the weird games that aren't just like a Sunday noon game. He does give you a low floor, but I'm still starting him with confidence as a wide receiver too going into the future.
Going over to the New York Jets, I was terrified. Like I had to play against Bree Hall and I had to play against the Broncos defense. The Broncos defense had like nine sacks and Bree Hall had 22 carries. And if you would have told me that coming into Sunday, I would have been terrified. But Bree Hall had 22 carries. And this dude walked away with 5.9 fantasy points. Justin Fields completed nine passes for 45 passing yards. He had 55 yards lost by sacks for a total of -10 yards. And look at this stat from ESPN. -10 net pass yards is the lowest by any team that we have seen in the last 27 years. So Fields looks like there's a very real possibility he's getting benched. Now, I know Aaron Glenn came out here and he laughed off the question as if it was the craziest idea in the world that Justin Fields would get benched, but the Jets are 0 and 6. He looked horrendous. Um Garrett Wilson looked like he had gotten banged up at the very end of this game. Um I I haven't seen any update with that, so I'm going to assume that Garrett Wilson's fine. Obviously, I'll be continuously updating you with the rest of season rankings later this week. But as of now, Garrett Wilson still dominates market share numbers. He had eight of the 17 pass attempts from Justin Fields in this contest. It was just a really tough match up against the top corner or one of the top corners in the league and the Denver Broncos defense. So Wilson, you still start. Bree, you still start. Fields, you still stream based off rushing upside. Nobody else in this offense is interesting. I know Mason Taylor had some flashes, but ultimately if you're the third option in the worst offense in the league, what are you going to do?
Now going over to the Browns game, Dylan Gabriel had 52 pass attempts. And with those 52 passing attempts, it led to 183 net passing yards and zero touchdowns. This led to Quinn Sean Judkins doing absolutely nothing. And this is always the concern with Judkins, right? In a game like this where the Browns trail from the very beginning, they're going to abandon the run and he's not the running back out there on third downs. He's not the running back out there in the two-minute drill. So you actually see the snaps for Judkins at 33, which is the same amount as Jerome Ford and out of 82 potential snaps in this offense. So, but again, I love Quinn Sean Judkins as a rusher. I know a lot of people have gotten upset with me ranking him quote unquote too low, but I want to reiterate he's a first and second down running back in one of the league's worst offenses. This floor is relatively low in a full PPR format. Um, David and Jooku gets injured in this. So with David and JJoku's injury, it looks like all of a sudden Harold Fannon might be a mustart tight end. Like he had 44 routes in this game out of a potential 58 dropbacks. I mean that's almost up there with Jerry Judy. Isaiah Bond and Jerry Judy ran the same amount of routes in this. I know a lot of people are going to be talking about picking up Isaiah Bond on the Waverwire. I'll give you the Waverwire video on Tuesday morning. So just make sure you are subscribed. And also it looks like we're about 3,000 subscribers away from hitting 300K. So, if you could help us get there this week, I would love you for it. But anyway, Isaiah Bonds, he's not interesting. Similar to like what we're saying with the Jets offense. You're the number two option in the freaking Cleveland Browns. You're not a good player. I have Jerry Judy on my own team. I benched him this week. He had 13 targets, but he still only had nine points. Looks like Harold Fannon Quickshot Judkins maybe the only startable players in Cleveland.
Now the Pittsburgh Steelers side, what's hilarious is if you look at the wide receivers here, DK Mechaf is the only one that even draws a target. Like looking at the leading receivers, you have Metaf wide receiver, then tight end, tight end, running back, tight end, till you get to a wide receiver with Roman Wilson who had one reception for 12 receiving yards. It's Metaf and Metaf alone. Now, I started Metaf, so don't get me wrong, I love seeing the one receiving touchdown off the four receptions. I will say I'm definitely concerned with this. I mean, he's been living off of touchdowns and at some point that may come back down to earth. Um, looking at the running back usage, Kenneth Gainwell looked phenomenal. Before the by-week, he put up a game that was better than anything you'd ever seen from Jaylen Warren. In this contest, you do have Gainwell kind of operating as the third down running back where Jaylen Warren was in there first and second downs. You had Gainwell with six targets comparison to Jaylen Warren with two, but this is a running back by committee where I'm not super excited about starting either RB.
Now going over to the Chargers, I need to take a massive fat L here. like the biggest and the fattest of L's needs to be taken. I came through and I called Asan Haskins the guy. We said that last Tuesday for the Waverwire video. I suggested picking up Asan Haskins. Then the reports coming into this Sunday clarified, yeah, Assan Haskins is the lead back. You saw people like Underdog Fantasy. I think they had the San Haskins higher lower at like 59 and a half total yards. They had Kamani Videl higher lower like 29 and a half. So I was like, "Oh, okay. Haskins is the dude." not the case whatsoever. Videl takes over. He looks damn good while doing so and he's actually a capable receiving back as well where he had 22 opportunities. So assuming the Los Angeles Chargers don't go out there and trade for a running back, there's a good shot Videl is a top 24 I mean at least the top 30 name in my running back rankings next week. Justin Herbert's still in the mix of like you want to roster two quarterbacks and then play the matchups between them. Lad Makoni blows up and all it took was the wide receiver one for this team with the big Q being out. So congrats if you started lad. I'm not going to be skyrocketing Lad Mani up my rankings. Everybody's here can celebrate and go crazy that Lad Makoni had some fantasy points. I hope Quinton Johnson's back next week for the sake of my underdog teams looking at Keenan Allen. Keenan Allen had seven targets. I'm still I I don't change anything with this wide receiver room in Los Angeles. The only takeaways is Videl's the dude unless they trade for an RB. Gatson is actually now an interesting waiverwire pickup. I know a lot of people have been looking at Gatsson over the past few weeks. I had been hesitant, but if you look at this chart from PFF or this graph from PFF, you'll see that every week that goes by, he is playing more and more and more. He's up to 75% of this team snaps. He looks good out there. He's at capable receiving tight ends. Obviously, a lot of this had to do with the fact that you had no Quinton Johnston, but still going into the future, this could be a good spot. Now, if you obviously are smarter than I am and you went Mason, I know that Videl's the lead back from the very jump. I I hope that you took the higher than 29 and a half total yards on Underdog Fantasy. And if you're that smart, I hope you can predict it. Again, you can go over to Underdog Fantasy right now, check out some projections for the games on Monday. Go high or lower. Underdog is available in almost every single state right now. They are number two in the app store among all sports apps only behind the Chicago Marathon. So go ahead, download Underdog. If you use promo code Flock, you will get $100 added to your account after you play your first five. And you will get Jaden Daniels high or lower half a total yard going for that Monday night game. Plus, you're going to be getting free questions that you can ask me in the live stream. And I'm going to be live streaming every single day until Christmas. But yeah, I've been working with Underdog as my only sponsor for the past five years. The promos that they're running right now for a limited time are by far and away the best that they've ever run, which is why you can see how high they are in the app store currently.
Now, moving over to the Miami Dolphins side of things, um, Tua remains not rosterable. You have three interceptions from Tua in this contest. Devon Chan remains as a true elite level RB. You get the six points as a receiver, then he has multiple rushing touchdowns and 128 rushing yards. looks phenomenal. Jaylen Wadd still remains a must-art wide receiver every week with no Tyreek. And Darren Waller yet again scores a touchdown. Like this dude's touchdown rate is going to be like the highest we've ever seen if this keeps up. In reality, the touchdown efficiency is probably going to scale back for Waller. He's probably not going to be that exciting going into the future, but hell, if you look at this graph from PFF, he's playing more than he ever has, at least as a Dolphin.
Now, going over to the New England Patriots, New Orleans Saints. What the hell happened with Stefon Dixs? I go through I I think all of a sudden I have a wide receiver one. I think that I am a golden. I put Stefon Dixon into my starting lineup and um all of a sudden every time Red Zone pulls up the Patriots game, I'm seeing Kahan Booty. Oh, Kahan Booty touchdown here. Kahan Booty touchdown here. Almost Kan Booty touchdown here. No idea what the hell's going on. If we go ahead and look at the underlying routes run data, Stefon Diggs ran 22 routes right there with Booty at 23. I don't know if Diggs really only came to play this year so he can go up against the Buffalo Bills twice a season. I I don't know if that's what it is. In reality, I think we have to do a heat check on Diggs and probably move him back down to where he's just flexeration. I'm not super interested in picking up Kahan Booty. I mean, again, I think that he is this baseball wide receiver. It's going to give you big spikes, going to give you absolute duds. Dear Douglas, I know you get the big receiving touchdown from, but in reality, Deario Douglas hasn't really been playing at all this season. Not interested in picking him up. And then looking at the running backs, Trevian Hitterson, Raandre Stevenson. Raandre has 13 carries for 18 rushing yards. You give me 18 rushing yards off of 13 carries and you have a fumbling issue. What does Henderson have to do to see more snaps? He played 19 snaps in comparison to Stevenson at 46. So, we're right back where we've been all year. Doesn't matter. Antonio Gibson's gone. Raadre Stevenson still the starting running back for the New England Patriots. And Trevy Anderson is still not startable until we see otherwise. And then Drake May slowly but surely not only turning into one of the best quarterbacks in the league, but also turning into a phenomenal fantasy option because he does give you that rushing floor. With the Saints, Rattler doesn't matter at all. Um, Crystal Lave is still a must-star wide receiver, too, in a full PBR format just because the reception volume is always there. He has 10 targets in this game. It's actually impressive though. He finally has some yardage with 98 receiving yards where the yards per target doesn't look horribly bad. And then with Alvin Kamar, you actually do see Miller with eight carries, Kamar with 10, and Taesm Hill is back to vulturing the rushing TDs. So even though Kamar does give you a decent like 12 13 fantasy points in reality I'm moving Alvin Kamara down my rest of season rankings because this Saints team is adamant they're not trading them while at the same time if Taesm's back vulturing Miller still getting a decent workload then I see Kamari getting squeezed from two angles.
Now going over to the Rams game this is the most painful thing to talk about in this video. Puganua injured and it doesn't look great. So he was out there, he was jogging before the second half. He didn't play again. I mean, Puganua, he had his 27 snaps, then he was done. But Shawn McVey said that he has an ankle injury and is uncertain if he'll play next week against the Jags in London. Off the top of my head, correct me if I'm wrong here, but I believe the Rams have a week eight buy. So, if the Rams have a week eight buy, the setup probably is going to be that Puka Dukua misses week seven. So, he can rest up weeks seven and eight and then hopefully be back in week nine. Now, I'm selfishly hoping he's not going to be back because I already checked and I play against the Pukanukua team in my league in week nine. So, buddy, rest up, come back week 10, come back at 100% full strength and show what you got at that point. But obviously just a devastating loss for people that were relying on Pukanua, just print them 25 points as all he always does. I will say despite Devonte Adams not giving you a great performance in this one with only a total like eight fantasy points. If Puka does miss this next week, Adams will be easily a top 10 wide receiver from EMI rankings. Blake Corum gets banged up in this game as well. Um Garen Williams just continues to dominate as the starter. We'll talk about Jordan Whittington on the Waverwire video, but in reality, I'm probably not going to tell you to pick up Whittington. And then Stafford still not interesting. Not going to run the ball at all.
Going over and looking at the Baltimore Ravens side of things, Cooper Rush, Tyler Huntley Bose action. Cooper Rush looked like one of the worst starting quarterbacks in the league, at least that we've seen over the past three seasons. Derrick Henry is everything to this offense. 24 rushtemps, 122 rushing yards. But Derrick Henry still not going to go out there and catch the ball. So, he's still not doing really much for a fantasy day. Um, Z Flower is not startable until you get Lamar back in. In reality, just nothing here is interesting until we get Lamar back. The Ravens have the week seven buy. I would assume that we get Lamar Jackson back in week eight and then all of a sudden you get excited about playing Z Flowers again. Now, um, look at this graph from PFF and you will see that Isaiah Likely is back at playing like super high percentage of snaps. He actually plays 63 snaps in comparison to Mark Andrews at 61. So Andrews probably is cutable at this point if you still have him.
Now going over and looking at the Arizona Cardinals. Um with the Cardinals, you have Jacobe Brassette and I saw this stat which is crazy that Brassette threw for 320 yards and two passing touchdowns today. The last time Kyler Murray did that was 34 games in nearly three years ago in week eight of 2022. So you actually have Trey McBride coming through with one of Trey McBride's best performances ever. Like McBride actually gives you the 22 points and produces off the 11 targets. Trey McBride is still my titan one overall in fantasy. And we got the blurb from Adam Sheper this morning before the game started that Bam Knight was going to be starting over Michael Carter. Now, in reality, it doesn't really matter who is the starter and who is the backup because they pretty much just split this backfield with opportunities where you did have Bam Knight 37 snaps comparison to Michael Carter at 32. Michael Carter kind of operated a little bit more as the receiving back. Michael Carter played all the two-minute drill. He played the vast majority of third downs where you actually had Bam Knight in there for short yardage as well as the early downs. So, if this is a bad offense and neither of these running backs are that talented, I would probably say that you want to be benching both of these running backs until we see otherwise.
Now, going over to the Indianapolis Colts side of things, um, Daniel Jones continues to be in that range of quarterbacks like Justin Herbert where he's not like a mustart name every week regardless of matchup, but he's like you can roster Daniel Jones and Fields, Daniel Jones and Knicks, um, Daniel Jones and let's call it Jared Goff and then play the matchups between those two names. Um, because he does give you the rushing upside, he has a rushing touchdown. Jonathan Taylor continues to have everything here. Jonathan Taylor still a top three running back rest of season. Tyler Borin still absolutely dominates with nine targets. Andy gives you the receiving touchdown, six receptions, 63 receiving yards. Started off this game extremely hot. Josh DS actually leapfrogs Michael Pitman Jr. and DS has seven targets, the receiving touchdown, six receptions, and 42 receiving yards. Now, I'm still going to rank Michael Pitman Jr. as the wide receiver one here in Indianapolis going into the future. We had Michael Pitman Jr. as the sell high candidate coming into this game because if you had looked at the targets here, you would have seen that it wasn't like Pitman was dominating targets here. He had just been running hot on touchdowns. So, I think this is kind of some natural regression that you have for Pitman. But Pitman still borderline flex. Tyler Boy still my tight end to rest of season. Jonathan Taylor still a top three running back. Nothing changes.
Going over to Seattle, um Sam Darnold continues to ball. The Seattle Seahawks are now 4-2. Darnold almost 300 passing yards off of 27 pass attempts and everything gets funneled through Jackson Smith and Jigba. He has 13 out of 27 potential targets. He has eight out of 16 potential completions. He has 162 receiving yards off of 295 passing yards. Like JSN is maybe leapfrogging Amra. Honestly, at this point with the Puka injury, I'm going to be updating my rest of season rankings. You'll see that on fogg fantasy.com tonight. You'll see it on um this YouTube channel tomorrow, but JSN may end up being the wide receiver one in my rest of season rankings now that we think about the puka injury. We'll see what St. Brown does tonight. Um Cooper Cup gets you a touchdown. You're never starting Cup. You're never starting Tory or just dropped these other players. really it's just the running backs and it is JSN and the running backs are just eating into each other where you have a total of 33 snaps for Zack Sharon, 19 snaps for Kenneth Walker. So, at some point, I mean, I know we had Kenneth Walker as a sellh high running back in our rankings video to I mean, earlier this week, I understand that we had Kenneth Walker already nuked in our rankings, but we may need to move him even below Zack Shar if Sharpet is going to keep playing over him. And I don't see why they would look to trade Kenneth Walker anytime soon, knowing that this team's actually competitive and this team's playing for it this year.
Now, moving over to the Jacksonville Jaguars, um Trevor Lawrence, it just takes a ton of sacks. Trevor Lawrence doesn't really look that great. You have 42 pass attempts for 214 net passing yards. Now, of course, you don't throw an interception. Um, Travis ETN still has the same exact role that he did previously. I started ETN this week. I would be fuming that we barely had any points, but like I said, I almost dropped 200 and we're going back to the top spot in the league. Five- one and the next two weeks I get to play the two worst teams in my league. So, seven and one is on the horizon. Um, but ETN's still the same guy he was before. Still losing third down work to Laquent Allen. Um, Bshell Tuden still taking meaningless touches. Going over to the receivers, nothing really changes here for Travis Hunter. Travis Hunter, the only thing that he does is erase a big-time touchdown for Brian Thomas. And Brian Thomas, I mean, he has a blowup. He has 10 targets, eight receptions, 90 receiving yards, and the receiving touchdown. Um, Brian Thomas had remained a mustart wide receiver two for us in our rankings. Do I move him up to being a wide receiver one after one strong performance? Probably not. Now, keep in mind, like I said, this could have been an even bigger day if it wasn't for the offsides for Travis Hunter. So, Brian Thomas, you're still starting him every week. ETN, you're still starting him every week. Um, but Travis Hunter, not so much. Travis Hunter, I would still keep him on my roster. Like, he does actually run 44 out of 51 potential routes in this game. So the utilization is up, which is really nice to see. Just he's not trustworthy as a starter until we actually get a breakout.
And now, let's go over to Dallas. So, George Pickkins absolute domination. George Pickkins looking like Jackson Smith and Jigba there. You have 11 targets, nine receptions, 168 receiving yards, and the receiving touchdown. Jake Ferg sees the receiving touchdown as well. This is why we called Pickkins that boow candidate. The second that CD Lamb went down, I went ahead and moved him inside the top 10 of my rest of season ranks. Just going, every week that Lamb's out, George Pickkins going to be a borderline top five wide receiver for us in our rankings because this is a garbage defense. Dak Prescott's an efficient quarterback and they're going to be forcefunneling targets in the direction of Pickkins. Now, I know we all want to get excited and we all want to say, "Oh, this is going to be the case through the end of time. He's going to remain the top five wide receiver the rest of season even with CD Lamb. No, Lamb's going to come back. Lamb will be the wide receiver one for the Dallas Cowboys. Best case scenario, this is Jamar Chase and T. Higgins from last season where you're still starting George Pickkins every single week, don't get me wrong, but instead of Pickkins being an elite high-end wide receiver one in fantasy, he's going to be more so like Tiggins last year. Will he be a low-end wide receiver one, high-end wide receiver two that you're still starting every week? Um Jake Ferguson scores the receiving touchdown, but I stand by that we called him a cell high candidate this week because CD Lamb's possibly coming back in week seven. And Javvante Williams doesn't do much. They really abandoned the run. But I'm not worried about Javvante whatsoever. You had the Miles Sanders injury and you'll see that Javvante played more snaps than ever. It's not like Jaden Blue all of a sudden came in and Jaden Blue took a bunch.
Now, the toughest thing to figure out when I make my rankings and please go to the comment section and let me know what you are thinking in terms of this split going into the future. is how am I going to rank Rico Dattle verse Chuba Hubard when Hubard returns? I heard this on Red Zone, but I believe this performance with 239 yards from Rico Dattle was the most yardage we have seen from a Carolina Panther player ever, including Christian McCaffrey. McAffrey never got to 239 total yards. And now this is backtoback performances from Rico Dattle of over 200 yards. How the hell could they ever go back to Chuba Hubard as a starter? As I talk through this, I'm thinking I'm going to be putting Rico Dattle as the running back one in Carolina rest of season. I'm going to be assuming that it's a running back by committee where Dadd and Hubard split. I would assume D has the majority of the work. He's not going to have all of it. Like don't get me wrong, when Hubard comes back, Rico Dattle is going to move from a top 10 running back in our rankings to probably like a low-end RB2. But what I'm worried about is if Hubard comes back, turns this this into a 50-50 committee, does it just kind of look like Kenneth Walker and Zack Sharbon where they both eat into each other enough where neither of them are interesting? And then looking at Ted Roy McMillan, what have been hilarious is coming into this game every single week he has just been printing eight targets, 50 receiving yards. Eight targets, nine targets, 50 receiving yards. He finally only has five targets, but he has multiple receiving touchdowns. to go up against the Dallas Cowboys defense and everybody's going to ball. And then obviously Xavier Legat looking like maybe the dumbest player in the NFL.
Now moving over to the Tennessee Titans and Las Vegas Raiders. I am super happy with my decision to stream the Raiders defense this week as it looks like Cam Ward may be the worst quarterback. I don't want to say that. Cam Ward may be one of the worst quarterbacks in the NFL right now. He's putting up like a Bryce Young level rookie season. a Trevor Lawrence level rookie season, right? Where we have seen this from these number one overall picks where it's not the most surprising thing in the world. Um, with the Tennessee Titans, um, Taji Spears plays 36 snaps in comparison to Tony Pard with 26. It does look like Spears kind of takes over as the third down running back where Spears is out there um, running the routes, being in there in the two-minute drill. And that's going to be horrible for Tony Pard who I have on my own team is just going to be riding the pine for the rest of the season because again this Tennessee Titans team is going to be playing from behind all year. Like if you lose to the Raiders in this way, you don't have much hope going forward. And you see Spears with 23 two-minute drill snaps in comparison to Tony Pard with only seven. And then Calvin Ridley gets injured. I would say like, oh, wheels up for LA Manor. Nobody's interesting in Tennessee. You cannot start a single name here until we see otherwise. Both Pard and Spears should be rostered because if either of them were to go down, then the other guy would be startable. But for now, nobody is in your starting lineup.
Now, going over to the Raiders, um I again, Jacob Myers may be the worst player I've ever seen, but um Gino Smith, you never consider starting. Um Ashen Genty, what's kind of sucks. I had to play against Genty this week, so I'm happy he didn't do much. But you would assume that they would see the success that Genty had as a receiver last week and continue to force feed him targets and give him the ball any way they could. But that does go away just a bit. You only have um two receptions, 11 receiving yards for Ashen Genty, but I guess he had a decent amount of targets in comparison to pass attempts in this offense. So the market share numbers were fine. But Genty remains must start three down running back every single week going to the future. Looking at the receivers, Jacobe Meyers does nothing even without Brock Bowers because Michael Mayer takes over. I believe this is a team that has a week eight buy as well. So, the expectation should be you probably have no Brock Bowers in week seven and then you have um Brock Bowers back in week nine. But Jacob's not interesting. Jack Bash is playing more snaps than ever, but I wouldn't pick up Jack Bash because again, this team is garbage. So, I would rather not start anybody if we could avoid it.
Now, going over to the Green Bay Packers and the Cincinnati Bengals. I started Josh Jacobs in this game and let me know if this is irrational, but I am always in a spot where if I'm winning and I have like so many points that like I I don't need anymore, right? Like I'm running away more points than anybody else in the league. And I see like my running back Josh Jacobs getting carries in the fourth quarter. But I'm like, "Hey, can we can we rest him?" I I'm I'm at this point just worried about him getting injured. But Jacobs absolutely balls. Jacobs gives you multiple rushing touchdowns. Jacobs gives you over 10 points as a receiver as well. True workhorse running back. This was the best matchup possible. This was the best game environment possible. Obviously, this isn't going to be as good as what we'll expect rest of season. But as somebody who has Josh Jacobs on their team, I'm very excited about it. Um, going over to the receivers, Matthew Golden leads the team, but Romeo Dobs has nine targets. So, I would still say Dobs is the lead wide receiver. Tucker Craft gets a receiving touchdown, but Craft only has two targets. The thing with the Packers again is they spread the ball out so much. It's very difficult to start anybody but Jacobs. I mean, you can go Doss, you can go with Meyers as flex plays and hope that they have a big week, even if it's not a guarantee.
Then going over to the Cincinnati Bengals, um Chase Brown gives you 11 opportunities, which is the fewest mark that he's had so far this season. And Sami Pine catches up with snaps or Pine has 30 snaps comparison to Chase Brown with 35. So it's about the time to throw in the towel with Chase Brown and say, you know what, it's not happening. We can just go ahead and we can just throw him on our bench even if he is getting the volume. Now, I understand that a lot of people are excited about this Bengals offense with Flaco coming over, but you had looked at what sports books were telling us, and keep in mind, I'm always of the opinion that sports books know more than I do. They know more than you do. They're better at predicting than we are. And they didn't move the line on this game at all. It was still Packers favored by 14 and a half. So, it was a very easy spot to just say, you know what, Flaggo's not going to help this week. He probably helps in the future, but this is the toughest defense in the league. Um, Jamar Chase still a mustar wide receiver every single week. I mean, we've had him as a top 10 wide receiver even at the worst of times and I think he's our wide receiver six rest of season. Um, we're going to leave that there as well. Then looking at Teigans, I have Tiggins on my bench. Um, he has 11 fantasy points, one of the best marks of his season so far. Yeah, the eight targets, which is nice, but this just wasn't the matchup for him. I'll I'll start TA against if I'm desperate like with some by weeks going into the future, but again, we had him as a sellai candidate with the Flaco signing and I'm not too far off of where we were.
Now, let's go over to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the San Francisco 49ers. So, little bit about me is I have actually lived in Tampa before. Love Tampa. Family is there and I was going to be a Bucks fan whenever I lived there. I was like, "Oh, okay. Well, I'm not a fan of an NFL team. Um, let me go through. Let me root for the Bucks. Let's have some fun. Let me see if I can be a fan of an NFL team in a full workout. And my brain is so broken from fantasy football. It always has been that I just simply couldn't root for him. Like, I'd be watching the game going like, "Oh, how many points does Leonard Fornette have? How many points does Chris Godwin have?" But I'm starting to root for this Bucks team. This offense is so damn fun with Baker Mayfield. Baker Mayfield, in my opinion, may be the most fun player in the NFL at this point. You have every wide receiver injured here. Every single one. Abuka, Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, even Jaylen McMillan, the fourth wide receiver in this Bucks room, is also down. And Baker Mayfield is still getting the job done. He still looks phenomenal. The Tampa Bay Bucks are five-one at this point. Um, I will say Sterling Shepard probably going to be a viable pickup for the first time that we've had this year um on the waiverwire. Obviously TZ Johnson has the phenomenal grab for the receiving touchdown as well. He will be on the radar. Rashad White still must start running back whenever Bucky Irving's gone. Obviously that goes without being said. And I can't imagine how many points Baker Mayfield's going to be scoring in fantasy once you do eventually get back all these wide receivers.
Um CMC remains just a must-art running back every single week. He gives you about 13 points as a receiver, the 50 rushing yards, the receiving touchdown. He's been my most valuable um player in fantasy football since like week three, I want to say he's been our number one player in our rankings. And then Kendrick Borne absolutely balls out here even in the game in which Jawan Jennings plays, which Jennings was clearly injured. Um, but yeah, Kendrick Borne looks like if you have no Ricky Pierol this next week and no George KD this next week, he is probably just gonna be a must-start name with yet again another performance of almost 20 fantasy points. But I think that's all I have for you. I really hope you dodge the injuries this week. I really hope that you're sitting with a great record. I am sorry to say, but if you're 0 and 6, it may be time to pack it in. It may be time to be thinking about next year. If you still want to have some fun, it's not too late though.
