00:00First one comes in. It's a running back question. It's Nick Chubb, Cleveland at Pittsburgh.
00:09It's going to be a great game. Or Gus Edwards, Chargers at Kansas City. Joe, who should they
00:14start or sit?
00:16I'm gonna go with Nick Chubb here. Not the greatest matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers,
00:21but one where I think you're going to see competitiveness out of the Browns. And Winston's
00:25going to put this team in positions to score. And if they're at the goal line, Nick Chubb's
00:29going to get that work. And Nick Chubb is up for the task. So give me Nick Chubb here.
00:33My problem with Gus Edwards is a tough matchup against Kansas City. It's on the road. Now
00:37I do think Harbaugh wants to turn this into a grindy kind of game. But inside the red
00:42zone all of a sudden is not where you're seeing Gus Edwards as much. So the fact that Greg
00:45Roman is the offensive coordinator and the familiarity where, you know, used to be the
00:49Dobbins and Edwards show when it was Baltimore and Greg Roman. Now they're just taking that
00:52show over to Los Angeles Chargers. You're seeing Kamani Vidal get some of that work
00:58in the red zone, even Haskins. I know he had the fumble last week, so they moved away from
01:02him, but don't be surprised if they don't give him another look too. He played with
01:06Harbaugh at Michigan. So there's a little bit of favoritism there too. It's the, it's
01:11the fact that you're splitting that workload and on top of the fact that touchdown equity
01:14favors Chubb. So this is an easy one for me, despite the fact they're just one spot away
01:18from each other in the ranks this week, I will go ahead and take Nick Chubb.
01:22All right, let's keep them coming. The reaction to, I believe it was last week's drill down
01:27by you on Amari Cooper and all of his drops was really received well. So now this question
01:32comes in is, is Amari Cooper at Los Angeles or is it Roma Dunze at San Francisco in a
01:37game that Joe, you've gone on record to say you think the bears are winning. So does it
01:41assume you lean on Dunze?
01:43These guys are back to back, but the problem is like, you know, last week you saw that
01:49incredible moment where Amari Cooper caught a ball and then pitches it to Josh Allen.
01:52Allen scores a touchdown like that. That might've been the MVP moment for Josh Allen, right?
01:57The thing that solidifies prime time game in this snow in Buffalo, he's already the
02:01number one, it puts them over the top. This game against the Rams feels like a little
02:05bit of a letdown for me after all the hype around that game for San Francisco, you know,
02:10in the snow, all that stuff without the energy of that crowd. And I still think both of the
02:14wins this football game. But if you look at the trend line here, you know, week eight,
02:18two targets, week 11, three targets, week 13, the, after the buy three targets for Mari
02:24Cooper, I'm looking at Roma Dunze. My curiosity is there is the target volume ever since we're
02:30moving it down the direction with Caleb Williams, week 11, 10 targets, week 12, 10 targets,
02:35week 13, six targets. How can we get away from those opportunities and targets? Just
02:39because Amari Cooper has the bigger name, he does not have the bigger target volume.
02:43Roma Dunze is getting that Roma Dunze is the future. And I think you're starting to
02:47see that play out. And I think it's a good match up here. Again, when you don't have
02:50Nick Bosa rushing the quarterback, you're giving Caleb Williams a lot more time in that
02:54pocket to be comfortable. And Roma Dunze might be the healthiest of this trio of wide receivers
02:58right now. So give me Roma Dunze. Again, I understand that Amari Cooper is that guy that
03:03you know, you love him, you went to school with him, you went to college with him, usually
03:07best man at your wedding, he won you all these fantasy football championships. It's just
03:11not happening right now. For whatever reason with the Buffalo bills, give me Roma Dunze.
03:15Again, this one is not close despite the fact they're back to back in the ranks too.
