00:00Speaking of the NFL's MVP, Matthew Stafford is the favorite right now on the FanDuel Sportsbook.

00:05This is a much easier, clean-cut game for everyone in fantasy this week because Rams are a must-play,

00:12whether it is Stafford or Devontae Adams, who gets the ball every time they're near the goal line,

00:16or Puka Nakua. You play all those guys, you play Kyron Williams, and that's it.

00:20There's no one else to play. You know who you play on the Rams, and you move on.

00:24For Carolina, look, it's been a little bit of a slowdown, as you would expect for Rico Dowdle.

00:29Bryce Young, you just got to look at the schedule and see what he did the week before.

00:33If he threw for 150 and two picks, next week it's 400 yards, so just gauge it on that.

00:38Ted McMillan coming on a little bit here, too, for Carolina.

00:41I do like their future, George, but I think last week's loss sort of put the nail in the coffin with their season.

00:48A very unpredictable team, but the Rams are the easiest team in fantasy to predict.

00:53This whole game's easy. You mentioned all the starters.

00:55All the four guys for the Rams you mentioned there, and you can start Dowdle, you can start Ted.

00:59That's it. Move on.

01:00You know, Bryce Young, they're a different team at home.

01:04They're a better offensive team at home, which makes sense.

01:06Younger team, they're better at home there.

01:08So I think they'll do a little bit better, but that Rams defense is also legit.

01:11They're not going to do great.

01:12I don't see them scoring a ton of points, so the Rams should win this game.

01:15I don't care if they're coming out east from a West Coast team there.

01:17So like I said, I'll start Ted.

01:19I'll likely start Dowdle.

01:20As you said, he has slowed down, but can you do better?

01:24Do you have better running backs in your roster?

01:26Maybe you do.

01:27You know, since he wasn't expected to start there, but I know I don't.

01:29If I had him, he's going to be going for me.

01:31And as much as I do expect a rebound from Bryce Young, not enough to start in a one-quarterback league.

01:37Easily the most fascinating game on the board this week, without a doubt, is Minnesota and Seattle.

01:42It was excuse month for J.J. McCarthy.

01:46Oh, we got to play him.

01:47We got to see more.

01:49I mean, did they need to see more out of Jaden Daniels last season?

01:52I mean, this guy was picked in the first round.

01:53He was horrible.

01:54There's nothing else to say.

01:55I don't understand why everyone said we need to see more.

01:59No, you need to see more out of this guy who's playing this week, Max Brosmer from the University of Minnesota.

02:05I have no idea if he's going to be good, bad, or ugly, George.

02:09But it can't be worse for the Vikings.

02:12George, it can't be any worse than it's been.

02:15It's got to be better.

02:16I think Justin Jefferson's going to be okay.

02:19I think Minnesota—look, I have no idea if they're going to win the game.

02:21And Seattle is much better on paper than they are.

02:23And they have the best player in fantasy in Jackson Smith and Jigma at wide receiver this season.

02:27But I think the Vikings are going to get a bump.

02:30It can't be worse.

02:32Oh, it's going to be bad.

02:34This is going to be an ass-kicking.

02:35All right, Minnesota's got all sorts of problems.

02:37You're playing in Seattle.

02:38It's a very—

02:39Listen, we talked about Houston defense, Denver's defense, Seattle's top five.

02:42All right, this is not going to be good.

02:44They have to go to Bros.

02:45Even if McCarthy was healthy at this point, it's just bad.

02:49It's just bad here.

02:50It can't be any worse for J.J.

02:52You already said this.

02:53So, good luck.

02:54I don't have Jefferson anywhere, so I don't have to panic about this.

02:56But, yeah, you've got to try something.

02:59I think Bros.

03:00First game on the road in Seattle against a good, good team.

03:05No, this is not going to go well.

03:07Not going to go well.

03:07The season's over in Minnesota here.

03:09They've got some decisions to make during the offseason.

03:11At the very least, they have to bring in a good veteran quarterback to compete with them.

03:16Maybe Kirk Cousins.

03:17Someone like that.

03:18But they're going to have to go over there.

03:19Maybe they're going to draft somebody.

03:20We'll see.

03:21But, no, it hasn't worked out at all.

03:25I think Marty does deserve another shot in an offseason.

03:28Of course.

03:29He's played.

03:30It has not looked good.

03:32No catches for Jordan Addison last week.

03:35None for the Vikings.
