Also would be worth it, George, just to make sure you have some handcuffs. There's no question that the handcuff for Bijon Robinson is Tyler Algier. He, I, I don't think George, he's the kind of guy, 36% owned, that you can play. I don't, I don't even in a desperation spot you're really praying for a touchdown here because I don't think anything else happens, but every B John Robinson owner headed toward the playoffs needs to have this guy just in case. I doubt very much he's on your water. You talk about what a 10 team league, 18 league, uh, he's gone, you know, but he's out there, absolutely. You go out and grab this guy. All right, he's been, uh, he's, it's frustrating. If you're a big guy, and I am, you know, and he's, he's taking the touchdowns again, you know, he, he's, he's got more rushing touchdowns. does. It's, it's frustrating out there, but if he's on, if he's out there, you're grabbing him. You're absolutely right. You're probably not starting him. And I, you got John Taylor this week, right? Hey, you, you're throwing him in there, so maybe you are, but, uh, Lords were desperate at at running back throughout the league. But probably this week with only two bars, you're probably not starting him, but yeah, I'd want him on my squad absolutely. The Arizona Cardinals running back situation is just a mess right now. Uh, you know, Trey Benson, who was supposed to be back, is not, uh, Bam Knight got banged up. He didn't even, I, I don't, I don't even know what his status is, honestly going into the game. So De Mercado is getting at it again, George, and fantasy leagues and, uh, you know, I just don't feel comfortable starting any of these guys. I would say Arizona, George, I mean, when you look at the landscape of fantasy, they may have a bottom 2 or bottom 3 running back situation in fantasy going right now. There's just really no good answer. Uh, you, you're correct on all points there. Bam and Knight, by the way, is a questionable, uh, limited practice yesterday. We haven't heard about the practice report today. Uh, so we'll see what that is. But as we're sort of ins insinuating here. If I had to start one of these guys, it would be De McCarter this week. He, he'd be my, I'm not expecting double digit points because he falls to the end zone here. I said this offense does have issues here. You're going up against a banged up San Fran defense, so there will be opportunities here. Uh, but as we said earlier, there's no Marvin Harrison. I wonder if Kyler Murray's played his last snap for Arizona, you know, so it sort of is what it is there. But if I had a choice, you know all these guys, it would be Deicardo, ban might play, but I think he'll still start over him. Uh, Benson still, they said he's not even ready to practice yet, so he's at least 2 weeks away. Chicago Bears seemingly using a lot of different receivers. It feels like a Packer situation almost, but Luther Burden, very big boomer bust guy, hasn't had a lot of booms, but 10% owned in fantasy, George, uh, you know, I feel like he's probably an added and dropped guy most of the season, 16 receptions on the year 222 yards. Yeah, you said it there, right? Uh, it is, it is sort of like a Packer situation. A lot of, a lot of cooks in the kitchen there who's gonna get fed and who's not, uh, Doomsday, DJ Moore, you know, you got the two tight ends, and they got the running backs who are doing so well, so it's gonna be a running game anyway, right, with, uh, Swift and Mananjai. Uh, Minnesota Vikings are a very good defense. I don't know if I want to start any of these guys this week, you know, maybe DJ Moore, but that's about it here. I'm not seeing a lot of points coming here. I think it's gonna be a game where Chicago's going to rely on the running games, all right, with Swift and Meanja. I keep, uh, the Vikings off the field somewhat here. This is gonna be a lower scoring game. Houston has Jayden Higgins coming on strong. He has 3 touchdowns now, 29 targets, 19 receptions. Seemingly, George, I think someone we're gonna have to pay a close eye on next season. I know Nico Collins is certainly their wide receiver one. Higgins, I think more of a keeper league stash at this point, really hard to to start him, especially with Davis Mills going this week. I mean, I, I agree. I agree, but once again, they're playing Tennessee, so I could see you maybe a few of my, uh, you're a Pittman guy, you're an alava guy, you know, and you lost some guys, Alec Pierce, Josh Downs are doing some damage as well. Maybe, maybe, but I said Collins is there. Burke is there. Uh, Schultz has been big the past couple of weeks. Uh, I'd rather have him over probably Burton this week if you had a choice team too for some reason he's on your team. I'd probably go that direction, but I'm just saying, you, we talk about a flex. All right. Uh, and I would think, I, let's let's put it this way, maybe you're desperate. You know, you're playing against Henderson yesterday, right? You had 32 points. You, you will, you need a home run guy, you know, fine. Maybe you give it a shot here, but, uh, I, I would assume you have somebody else on your roster who's more trustworthy.
