It's week two in the NFL season. He's Mike Harmon and hit him up at Swollen Dome. That's Ryan Bersching, our executive producer. You can find him at Ryan Berschinger on Twitter dot com or x or whatever you want to say. You can hit me up at Dan Byer on Fox for any of your fantasy questions. We now look ahead to week two, but still with an eye on what happened in Week one. And the reason I say that, guys, is week one a lot up in the air, and I think that week two sometimes can be the exact opposite of what we've seen in Week one. But sometimes there are things that just are what they are because that's what they are. And I think week one provided some opportunities. And Michael's start with you just in your mind, was there anything in week one that you saw that said, yeah, it seems about right. You know, that's you know, I don't need to see three or four more weeks of this. So this is kind of what I thought it was in the first sixty minutes of football for the season.

Well, I alluded to it a little bit in our waiver wires discussion, you know, when it came to brock Purty right still was only owned in about a quarter of leagues as waivers were set to process for week two. But watching him stick the ball in, you know, Tayuk and knowing you you're deploying so many weapons and so long as Christian McCaffrey is healthy, you're going to have opportunities to make plays of That defense didn't miss a beat. They were terrorizing. They got after it, and so I guess San Francisco being the first of a couple of teams that we knew the defenses would be, you know, terrorizing, and that they lived up to form Dallas with what they did with the Giants, you know, setting up some of the most historic numbers of futility that we've ever seen. And then even with the Jets and losing Aaron Rodgers, boy, they really got after Josh Allen a bunch and forced some bad throws and he made a couple of terrible decisions jump balls basically where you were back on the street when you'd punt and yell punt check, and then the guy had to throw it thirty yards down the center of the field as a punt. Yeah, that's kind of what Josh Allen did. But the defensive units, and I always wondered defense offense, who's ahead whatever. I just know this, those three teams, their defensive units are for real. And maybe I buy into San Francisco and brock Purty a bit more.

For me, there were a couple quarterbacks that I was taking a bit of a wait and see approach to start the season, and right away after Week one, I'm like, yeah, you know what, I Am going to feel comfortable playing them, and that's Deshaun Watson and Anthony Richardson. Deshaun Watson played in horrible conditions and still gave you a very strong fantasy performance. Sure, and the fact that like Elijah Moore, was clearly the wide receiver two he was kind of a wait and see guy as well, where now I would feel comfortable flexing him and Anthony Richardson just because he's a rookie, just to see how he was going to adjust, to see him be dynamic in the run game right off the bat. I think is very promising for his fantasy value, and I think he's a very comfortably startable moving forward, just based off of what we saw from those two guys Week one.

I just can't get over how mediocre the commanders are in just like there was. I stayed away from everyone except Brian Robinson on that team. I liked Terry McLaurin. I will admit that I liked Johan Dotson, names that we had talked about, but when push came to shove, I couldn't trust Sam Howell. And I'm not saying that it's not going to develop into a to a great quarterback, but what we saw against a bad Arizona team and how it ended up producing, you guys had some you know, positivity to talk about, and I just I just Washington, I just want to stay away with something, you know, from some of that stuff.

Well, I got one more. I can go full negative audio.

Well, I got one more. I can go full negative audio.

Yeah, let's do it.

Yeah, let's do it.

I'll put my Bears hat on while I do it. Fields is awful. The effort by that team is atrocious, and Eberflus and Chase Claypool, you could just revoke their key cards as we stand here today coming out a week one Field does to get through his reads fast enough. And so there's the one one thousand and two one thousand, and we know he could pass. Like there's just the offense. They called two design runs and then they had two balls over I think it was seventeen yards depth downfield. Everything else was the dink dunk or he's looking to run almost immediately and the progressions just not there, and something there's a disconnect because I had great hope that he'd make a leap, maybe not to the level of some other pundits and Loudmounts in our business guys. But watching that game on Sunday against Green Bay and look, another team that we had talked about quite a bit last year, the disappointment in the lack of playmaking by the defense and taking that next step to solidify that squad as a whole. But watching the Bears on Sunday, there was no positivity coming out there.

Col Comet was invisible moon. He made one or two play.

Col Comet was invisible moon. He made one or two play.

DJ Moore was sitting on the sidelines like a deer in the headlights. Post game, he's like they were booing us in the second quarter, Like that's where it is, Like the honeymoon's over. They may be in the Caleb Williams running when it's all said and done. That's that's how disappointing that week one was.

But here's now my question to you is disappointing as a Bears fan for sure, but fantasy wise with what Justin Fields can provide again, let him in rushing again in.

But here's now my question to you is disappointing as a Bears fan for sure, but fantasy wise with what Justin Fields can provide again, let him in rushing again in.

Weekend fifty nine yards yet yeah, is that.

Weekend fifty nine yards yet yeah, is that.

Enough to shy you away from playing him?

Enough to shy you away from playing him?

No, I think he's for fantasy purposes, you know. And again this is the you know, trying to take it into totality that the passing numbers, they can't be any worse than last year when'd they average one hundred and thirty one passing yards a game, So he can't be that bad. But you know, trying to figure out where we're going to get some balance, because if I'm banking out of my quarterback to get back to eleven and forty three rushing yard. I'm in a bad place, but you know what, just might get there with the way this squad as long as he does get broken in half. But to your point, Dan, yeah, I mean he becomes more a back end number one.

I don't know that I trust it.

I don't know that I trust it.

And again, it's week one, it's a familiar opponent, it's a game that everybody hyped internally right around there. It's justin fields in the next Packer quarterback after thirty years of the last two guys. So you know, it was like a super Bowl for both squads. So maybe you know it's hyperbole and just the overreaction to Week one because that's kind of what we do on the road at Tampa Bay. Probably should be a little bit smoother sailing, but they get after it too, right. They got a pretty good and fast front seven and some guys in the secondary that'll give you fits. But yeah, I think I'd still be secure where we're at in the quarterbacking position that he's back in QB one, but certainly not the set and forget without a little bit of thinking like he would have been coming into the year.

For me. I want to talk about the Atlanta Falcons and how if you have a member of their rushing attack, you are ecstatic. And if you have any member of their passing offense, you are terrified. Right now, Drake London, one target, no catches, nothing.

That is also known as the London Game, but not the one that.

That is also known as the London Game, but not the one that.

Well, Dan, you and I were talking about Kyle Pitts right as we were sitting in the bullpen watching the game's.

Well, Dan, you and I were talking about Kyle Pitts right as we were sitting in the bullpen watching the game's.

Apropon name as well the Pits.

Apropon name as well the Pits.

Yes, yeah, just a really Kyle Pitts ended up with two catches on three targets for forty four yards. That team is making it apparent that they're going to run the damn ball and that's all they're going to do. And if they are going to throw it, they're going to throw it to be John Robinson. So yeah, if you got if you drafted Tyler Algier, you got him for tremendous value and b Jhon Robinson already showed even though Algier had more carries. I'm sure that is part of just working Bijon in and the fact that Jon I think got like ten catches or something like. He was phenomenal. So if you if you took Jon in the first round, you're stoked because he's only going to get better and better. But if you know Drake London and Kyle Pitts were drafted as starters on your team, and you can't you can't feel good about that.

Right now, I'll tell you what I feel good about since I started negatively and talking about the Commanders and who Sam Holl was going to throw the football too, And I don't know if I've made it known enough on this podcast. I thought I maybe did in our preseason, but a guy that I wanted to draft, there was always to talk about the rookie wide receivers. And Jordan Addison scored for the Vikings, Jackson Smith and Jig Bat a quiet game for the Sea Awks, but Zay Flowers was the Numero uno target for Lamar Jackson ten targets, nine receptions, and I think it continues. You know, they played a bad team where they didn't need to, you know, throw the ball that much. You could keep it pretty close to the to the vest, even with JK. Dobbins out. But now in some games where you may have to score some points, and I know Mark Andrews' injury played a role in that, But when you look at how everybody else fell into place, that gave me a good feeling about Zay Flowers moving forward. He may not be Option one A once Andrews returns, but he'll be one B or at least number two. The Odell Beckham Junior stuff was stuff that I just never believed and I'm ready to cash in my chips even after week one. I think you're just going to see a lot of Andrews and Flowers. With Lamar Jackson in Baltimore, I.

Kind of dug that over the shoulder catch that Odell made for one moment other than chan ray Lewis dancing as he was coming out of the tunnel, he gave us one little throwback moment in that game. I guess, you know, going all Joe positivity and it'll be a fun test because the Divisional game Week two, Miami at New England. But I think Tyreek Hill is still running right. Look at the numbers to a put up and Jalen Wattle really didn't do a whole lot on anything right. And when you look at where the balance may come, Mostert you know finds the end ZONEA and such.

So I mean they're as long as they can keep him up right.

So I mean they're as long as they can keep him up right.

And that was with Armstead out that they did that to, you know, a guy who was supposed to be a defensive wizard. Head coaching clearly clouds your defensive mind if your branded stay. But you got to feel pretty good if you invested in Miami skill guys. But also if you took a flyer, you know what, self defense karate classes like he was Elvis in the seventies, whatever the hell it was.

Going to be. Two was just as comfortable as you could possibly be.

Going to be. Two was just as comfortable as you could possibly be.

One guy who I would be very excited about. I have him on one of my teams. Seeing how good Calvin Ridley was and seeing how featured he was in that offense was very exciting, and I think that after one game, I don't think it's crazy to say, like he's gonna end up possibly top five as a fantasy receiver, Like he was clearly the featured target of Trevor Lawrence. He looked fantastic, and he very quickly, like after the first half he had like seven catches for seventy in a touchdown. Yeah, I'm very stoked as a Calvin Ridley owner that the ceiling is truly very high for him.

Keeping the train rolling from week one into Week two those are just some of the things that we liked and some of the stuff that we didn't like that we actually think could be consistent as we head into the second week of the NFL's regular season. That's Mike, that's Ryan. I'm Dan. It is the I Want Your Flex podcast coming up next. What could be the one to eighty from week one, plus maybe I'll look ahead to some survivor picks if you're still alive and weren't bitten, maybe by the Seahawks or others. We'll talk about it next year. And I Want Your Flex Week two is here. We got more of I Want Your Flex. The question is we're trying to decipher on what happened in week one and what carries over to week two. We kind of did the good and bad with specific specific players, not what I want to know, guys, matchup wise, because there are a bunch of different matchups, and I'm going to point to the Kansas City Jacksonville one right away. You guys were both just talking a little while ago and how much you loved what Jacksonville did in Indianapolis against the Colts. We're hearing Trevor Lawrence MVP conversation already.

That's howere I A shirt did says that? Right now?

All right, Calvin Calvin Ridley was my number five wide receiver for the years, So let's go.

All right, Calvin Calvin Ridley was my number five wide receiver for the years, So let's go.

Yeah, let's keep riding that wave. But does that wave continue against the Kansas City Chiefs, who are expected to get Travis Kelce back for the matchup on Sunday and coming off of a rough loss to the Lions in week two, that to me was one of the games where I'm saying, Okay, now do we find the middle here? Is that where we're going? Or do the Jaguars keep rolling? Let's start with that matchup, guys, Chiefs Jaguars, how do you think it kind of starts to play out on Sunday?

Let's get fireworks. Well, Kelsey coming back means less attention on those wide receivers who are so much maligned. Although you know Kadarius Tony went out of his way to really go back after his old team, like no, no, no, concentrat on catching the ball, dude, Get back in the whatever, rehab, get some cryo localized therapy, whatever you need to do. But no, it's it's really an interesting match, right. Jones going to be back for this one as well. Right signed his new deal, so assume you get him for some level of play, so it becomes an interesting one over Under is at fifty one points, Chiefs are a narrow three point road favorite, so he always loved.

The home dog. I just like that.

The home dog. I just like that.

You know, you got quarterbacks and Trevor Lawrence is gonna want to match up, right. I think we're gonna try to air it out. You got Etn who had himself a good game. We have our good old pal, mister Bigsby. I just love saying thanks Bigsby whenever I get the chance. So balance there, and I think we get ourselves a little bit of a score fest with Travis Kelcey in because the Chiefs had opportunities. The receivers just left them on the field against Detroit. Right, not to say that they were suddenly putting up forty points, but you know those are some pretty monumental drops in big points in that game. So I assume that gets tightened up a little bit. And Kelsey just being out there and being able to be a move though chains and just security blanket for Patrick Mahomes is so key. So does it fall back to Earth? No, I think for fantasy owners, this is the greatest thing that could ever happen.

Oh yes, And speaking of which is like traves Etn also deserves a shout out after his first Week one performance. He was phenomenal involved in the passing game as well. That was great to see. I think that on the surface, it feels like, of course the Jaguars have the momentum, but the Chiefs had the long week. They're getting their key pieces back. It's hard for me to think that the Chiefs start the season zero and two. But it's also hard to say the Jaguars lose this one, given how good that offense looks right now. But I would probably still stick with the Chiefs. I think that things do reverse. I think that that team is too good not to get things back on track with all the pieces lining up for them once again.

They've played the Chiefs competitive competitively in the two meetings that they had last season. Both of those were in Kansas City. So to Mike's point, I don't you know, you can't expect that to happen again. And Ryan, to your point, I just, yeah, I don't want to bet against Kansas City. It's one thing if they lose and they lose a game they played well, I just they didn't. They were out of sorts, they didn't have Kelsey. I just I think it's a different sort of scenario. Water finds its level. I guess was the phrase I was looking for earlier. That's what I think happens here. I think that the Chiefs go to Jacksonville win the ballgame. And I'm not the guy who's always like, oh, Chiefs, always gonna win, Always pick the Chiefs, but just just in the spot that they're in right now. A fantasy lovers, you know, dream for that game, as you mentioned, Mike, I think we're going to see great production. But I like the Chiefs in that specific scenario that matchup coming up on Sunday.

And I'm not the guy who's always like, oh, Chiefs, always gonna win, Always pick the Chiefs, but just just in the spot that they're in right now. A fantasy lovers, you know, dream for that game, as you mentioned, Mike, I think we're going to see great production. But I like the Chiefs in that specific scenario that matchup coming up on Sunday.

I do concurge.

I do concurge.

Now. The question is are you are you confident enough to place any chips towards the center? Is it a McKinnon day or do we all get taunted by maybe Pachecko seeing more run or like against the Lions when suddenly it's Clyde Edwards Hilaire getting the first carries. Tell me you didn't curse under your breath when that happened in week one?

Absolutely?

Absolutely?

Oh ceh C h and I saw that funky ass helmet. You know, I think I may have said that the Birds as well, like, what the hell is going on here?

Oh ceh C h and I saw that funky ass helmet. You know, I think I may have said that the Birds as well, like, what the hell is going on here?

As someone who started Jack McKinnon last week that first drive, I was standing up yelling at the TV, going, what the hell? Who let Clyde Edwards hlaire on the field? You know what is going on now? He lost a bet with Belichick.

Belichick got to call the additional running back rotation.

Belichick got to call the additional running back rotation.

As someone who's had Clyde Edwards d lair for like the last three seasons, when I saw number twenty five on the field, I'm like, oh, who's the new guy? Because I just never thought that he would be back this still there? Yeah, and not only that's starting on Thursday night football. That wasn't great, but Ravens and Bengals. Ravens coming in off that win against the Texans. Bengals, we know what happened in Cleveland. Another opportunity Division game though, could make it a little bit harder. I just don't think anybody envisions now. I'm not trying to put words in your mouth, guy, so if you disagree, go right ahead. But I just can't envision T Higgins, Joe Burrow, and Jamar Chase having as awful of a game as they did in Week one in Week two, even against a good Ravens.

Team, little bit of injury issue hitting the defensive side for the Ravens as we look at Williams and the peck injury. So keeping an eye on what goes on there. But yeah, I look at what the Bengals brought to bear in Week one, to the point where Joe Burrow gets set down. It was so bad, right, eighty two yards and t Higgins is invisible. Joe Mixon gets a race, like all of it just go to hell. Like that's one that you burn the tape, right, the old adage, burn the tape and move forward. This is a team that you're expecting to make big runs, obviously. Joe Burrows pre seasons and off season struggles except for you know, signing a giant novelty check are well documented here. So you get one week. Yeah, you got punched in the mouth by a team that normally plays you very well. Right, That battle for Ohio is no joke, even going back to the days of Derek Anderson in shootouts.

That's right.

That's right.

I've been doing this fantasy thing a minute or two. But yeah, this is one that intrigues me because Lamar Jackson was anything but great in Week one as well. So divisional battle on the road at Cincinnati. Yeah, I think we got a couple of one to one teams when this finishes.

Yeah, we still have some more to learn about the Ravens now without JK.

Yeah, we still have some more to learn about the Ravens now without JK.

Dobbins and Ronnie Stanley and who else pops up on the injury guard. They did not exercise that training room bush.

Dobbins and Ronnie Stanley and who else pops up on the injury guard. They did not exercise that training room bush.

No, and if maybe if, if Mark Andrews is ready to go again. But in terms of just seeing who who does get the bulk of carries, it could just be a straight split with Gus Edwards and and Justice Hill, which it kind of seemed that way once once Dobbins went down, they had the same amount of workload. Yeah, you look at Justice Hill's two touchdowns, but Edwards still I believe had more carries. Even No, I think the Bengals do do flip it around. I really think you can take that first game and and throw it in the garbage. I just it was the weather was not great. If you're setting Ta Higgins catches at at point five, I would take the over this time.

So it's a bold proclamation there.

So it's a bold proclamation there.

I think that hopefully we're gonna get a a true representation of the Cincinnati Bengals this week, and if we don't, then we start to have serious discussions about them. But no, I think the Bengals do get back on track, that offense gets it together, you get a first round pick performance out of Jamar Chase. I think that things will be fine.

I know my Seahawks had a rough go of it, and I would think it could be an opportunity where you think maybe the Lions are over confident. The thing that I would caution in that scenario Lions, as we're recording this a six point favorite, there are a couple of things at stake. I know that it's the pro game, but I do think revenge plays it part into it. And the Lions didn't make the playoffs last year because of the Seahawks. The Seahawks beat them in a game earlier in the regular season. It's a really good game, game of the forties, a lot of points for shot Penny at a big game. That's the reason why the Lions didn't make the playoffs las year. Will they beat Green Bay? Seattle ended up having the tie breaker over them, because of their head to head and the Seahawks go in. I think that there are some issues with the Seahawks, and heck, I mean, considering how Matthew Stafford like attack the middle of the field, I expect Jared Goff to do the same. So that would be one where if you're looking at it at a swing, I don't know if it's necessarily going to happen in Detroit. And I'll give you guys another one where I don't think it happens, and it's the Monday night game two Browns and Steelers. Just because of that forty nine er stat. We keep hearing about how teams weren't winning games the week after they played San Francisco. Here you have the Browns running high after the win against the Bengals. You would think that maybe they could have a come down, you know, come to earth moment and the Steelers could pick it up and bounce back. But that stupid stat from the forty nine Ers, like is in my head in Cleveland two point favorite at the time of this recording, I'm like, now, I'm like, geez, cause the Browns actually go two to zero in this scenario. Those are two matchups where I think you could maybe see things, you know, twist and have one team fall and one team game. I'm not too sure about that.

Thirty nine and a half, as you're over under for that one. No, Hayward Autae Johnson banged up a little bit with the hamstring, And I don't know what is this another case to some degree like as the Bengals of the art, it was so bad you have to throw it out because that game was non competitive from the outset, right, San Francisco just beat the hell out of them and took their souls pretty early. So but does it also lend itself? Remember the end of last year they won a bunch, but it wasn't sexy, right, It wasn't great football offensive Juggernauts. Whatever picket gets through doesn't throw interceptions, but isn't exactly lighting and spraying the ball all over the field either. You get Najie Harris Jalen Warren have to be bigger components than they were in Week one. Obviously as the game gets out, But what is Kenny Pickett at this point of all the quarterbacks on the board. I don't know that there's a bigger question, and that that includes my guy in Chicago. You at least know he can run the ball, right in terms of what he can contribute himself to a team effort. Kenny Pickett. I don't know what he is at this point, so I can't get excited. And I didn't buy into the preseason and it's preseason football. So anybody that was just all giddy about running up and down and running amuck on preseason like, who cares? Like it doesn't It doesn't matter. You know, it's good fodder in the moment. If we're actually on air when the games are being.

Played, how did you see that catch? Other wad?

We're not talking about it, all right, they're finding something. He's playing meaningful reps, I guess. But what does it mean when the regular season starts absolutely nothing and so against Cleveland's defensive front.

Is Miles Garrett gonna get the dance like he did in front of the Bengals offensive line a week one. That might be my favorite video, by the way, on a weak one, like literally swaying like he was in the middle of a giant mambo number or something pretty good.

Looking at these these two games that you brought up, dan Uh, there's some interesting daily fantasy plays when you look at what happened to these teams in Week one, Brown Steelers, Christian McCaffrey ran all over the Steelers. Nick Chubb probably gonna do the same thing. Yeah, and with the with the Seahawks and Lions. I love this stat how in week one there were eight receivers that had over one hundred receiving yards and two of them were on the rams at well, it was just a.

So just think about what Amana Saint Brown is going to do against that Seahawks secondary.

So just think about what Amana Saint Brown is going to do against that Seahawks secondary.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So there's there's there's really interesting. And I think that those obviously, as I mean, Geez too too well and Pooka Nicoua doing those numbers, it's hard to say that that's a fluke. I think that the teams are gonna be able to throw on that Seattle Secondary pretty effectively. So I think Jared goff is a is a good play.

The problem it's they just Matthew Stafford had all day to throw. Yeah, honestly, it's you know it the Broncos and Raiders in that game. You know there's Broncos trying to get after Jimmy g couldn't do it in the you know, biggest circumstances. If you don't get pressure on the quarterback in the National Football League, you're going to have problems.

So yeah, yeah, no, you know you you cited the stat with San Francisco in the week after for teams. Yeah, I was leaning really hard into the TJ.

So yeah, yeah, no, you know you you cited the stat with San Francisco in the week after for teams. Yeah, I was leaning really hard into the TJ.

Watt number.

They were fifty nine, twenty six and two when he played. Sure, did you hear his name other than introductions?

They were fifty nine, twenty six and two when he played. Sure, did you hear his name other than introductions?

Right? I mean it just shocking. But now you wonder if there's a carryover to you. Yeah, no extra day of rest, which is nice, but how much is it going to play into it? Not enough that I want to put my chips onto it.

Right? I mean it just shocking. But now you wonder if there's a carryover to you. Yeah, no extra day of rest, which is nice, but how much is it going to play into it? Not enough that I want to put my chips onto it.

No, I would agree, And obviously you mentioned the Rams Bush the Rams playing the aforementioned forty nine ers. I'm really intrigued by what the Rams are right because I think and we did our sheet, right, Dan, you put the sheet up every year and looking at it, going all right, Cooper Cup's not there, Stafford backy out of me and kind of does he want to be here or not? McVeigh. We bullied him back onto a sideline. But maybe he's looking long term at you know what the Rams look like two years from now and new quarterbacks and whatever, thinking they could be the dregs. But then you have a game like that and I don't know if it's just a blip on the radar, right, and does it get thrown out? But you get an immediate matchup against the forty nine ers to where all right, here's another test because I still think the Seahawks are going to be a good team. I still look at that personnel and yes, you clean up and how much is you scheme it up for one week?

Right?

Because we see it in college football like these weeks.

Because we see it in college football like these weeks.

You're a week one games, right, the non conference opponents whatever else, say you scheme it up? And I was like week two, It's like I didn't have any of that left, right, that emotion's gone, it's left the building.

Whatever.

Here, I'm really curious that so far, when the forty nine ers fans all pack it in, what's it going to look like?

And what you know is can they scheme it up again?

Or is Matthew Stafford broken in half by Nick Bosa by the second series?

See really quickly? Do you have all these these rams players that people definitely added on waivers and prioritized, can you really play any of them against the Niners with any sort of competence? I don't know. I think that you probably have better options based on matchups.

Niners are more than a touchdown favorite eight is what I'm reading as we record this. I when I go into my survivor pools and looking to pick, I try to stay away from certain things. And I know that this number is big, and I know this number is appealing. But there's three reasons why I'd stay away from the forty nine ers in week two. Number one, I know it's not right to do this, but you kind of do have to do this if you want to make any headway. Kind of got to save the forty nine ers a little bit, you know this, I mean realistically. Number two, if you didn't want to save them, it's a division game and it's a road game, and I know it's going to be a home game with the fans that you know, you guys alluded to, but it's still on the road. I don't love the Rams going to and oh I don't just necessarily see it. I could maybe go against all of my reasoning and end up picking the forty nine ers. I just probably wouldn't do it, even if they're probably going to win this game. Probably wouldn't pick them in the Survivor because of all those reasons i'd said.

It is.

It is.

Yeah, I don't like there's.

Yeah, I don't like there's.

Nothing that just leaps off the page to say, oh yeah, captain obvious one. Oh this is like reasons to pick against because like, you don't want to use the Cowboys, same rationale as the forty nine ers. Right if we're thinking they're the class and after beating the hell out of the Giants in Week one, we got to think that they're there. You don't want to give up one of those teams early. But then am I going after Indianapolis or Houston? Am I going after the Bears or Tampa?

I mean you talk about two games that you can flip a coin in the air and see what comes out.

I mean you talk about two games that you can flip a coin in the air and see what comes out.

I mean Las Vegas and Buffalo. After what Buffalo did.

I mean Las Vegas and Buffalo. After what Buffalo did.

I'll tell you what Buffalo. Buffalo would be my pick this week for two reasons. Number one home three reasons. Number one, they're home. Number two, I don't see them putting forth the effort. You have the opportunity to get this out of your mouth, quickly, get this out of your way. Short week, number three, Raiders now playing back to back weeks on the road to open the season, first one in Denver. Now you got to go out to Buffalo. That's I like that early kickoff bills would be the one for me that I take. That would be my survivor pick. You mentioned the Cowboys as well. Now a short week for the Jets and trying to figure out that Dallas defense, that would be my option two for favorites. And then if you're taking a coin flip, which I tried to do against Denver. It completely backfired against me. But do you really think the Commanders are two and zero? So if you still have Denver, if you're in a survivor pool, maybe that's the one you go with Denver's already a three and a half point.

Favorite, you're satting against Russell Wilson.

Favorite, you're satting against Russell Wilson.

I just I don't feel comfortable in that Brown Steelers game. I would lean towards the Steelers, but I just can't get myself to do it. You know, Saints Panthers, you know, for that double header on Monday night. Just yeah, not feeling And if there was anyone, I'd go to the rematch of Super Bowl twenty two, which was the best looking field that we had in any super Bowl in the fifty seven Super Bowls that we've had, the best looking field was in Super Bowl twenty two between Denver and Washington.

Do you go Giants over Cardinals? Because if that was a Week one matchup for your Survivor pool, I feel like people would have slammed that. But then, of course, given the showing that the Giants gave in Week one, does even the Cardinals feel too risky for the Giants?

Do you go Giants over Cardinals? Because if that was a Week one matchup for your Survivor pool, I feel like people would have slammed that. But then, of course, given the showing that the Giants gave in Week one, does even the Cardinals feel too risky for the Giants?

No, I could get on board that way.

No, I could get on board that way.

Probably, Yeah, I probably would.

Probably, Yeah, I probably would.

Will be it'll be probably a top five pick. Just I don't like to pick road teams. Yeah, that's just my and I. You know, there's certain criteria and how it fits which shows because last year I entered it. If you want to know how good my formula is, last year I entered in five survivor pools, made different picks each week, and folks, I was eliminated in all five by week six. So there is your information that that's why you lean on me for the survivor picks. But I think there are a lot of people who were burned. Mike's Bears knocked me out of my last one, and then they went to New England and topped the Patriots last season, so.
