0:00I'm going to be honest, this maybe was
0:03my favorite football game that I've ever
0:06watched. I was in the depths of hell
0:11thinking that my fantasy season was
0:13over.
0:14As we had Christian Watson on the ground
0:16in pain. Then we proceeded to watch
0:20Christian Watson climb into the
0:23ambulance. And of course I'm live
0:26streaming every primetime game on the
0:28Flock League channel.
0:30We watch every single primetime game
0:31with y'all on that Flock League channel,
0:33but
0:34I'm sitting there pissed, probably
0:37shouldn't be on stream anymore. Again,
0:39let us just
0:42hating my life.
0:44And then we get the report that
0:47Christian Watson was headed back to the
0:49stadium.
0:50And he wasn't ruled out for the game.
0:53And then we get the best shot I've ever
0:57seen in my entire life. And that is
0:59Christian Watson getting out of the
1:02ambulance to come back and play the
1:05game.
1:06I went from thinking he was out for the
1:08season
1:09to he's scoring points in the fourth
1:12quarter. And I mean the entire time he
1:15was at the hospital on the way to the
1:17hospital, I'm doing every little piece
1:19of research I can. Quote unquote
1:21research. Me asking Google questions and
1:23also me asking the YouTube live chat, me
1:26looking at Twitter, doing nothing but
1:28twiddling my thumbs. What I found out
1:30was
1:31there had never been a player in the NFL
1:36go to the hospital in an ambulance and
1:39come back and play that game. According
1:41to Google, it had happened twice in
1:44college, but
1:47it had never happened in the NFL. So
1:49everybody in the live stream was telling
1:50me it wasn't going to happen, but we
1:51still end up getting him.
1:55I will say that I am maybe a little too
1:58emotional. And obviously should not
2:01listen to me whenever I say this.
2:03But I am at this point
2:07100%
2:09refusing to trade away Christian Watson
2:12off my team for the rest of the season.
2:16He's with me until the end of the year.
2:18For this dude to do this, I love him
2:21more than I've loved any human on this
2:22planet.
2:24So, I
2:27I'm so damn excited. He would have had a
2:30way bigger game than he did if he didn't
2:33have to go to the hospital. And by the
2:34time he came back, this game was pretty
2:36much over. The Green Bay Packers didn't
2:38really have to throw the ball. And my
2:40assumption
2:42is he's a okay. He's going to get 10
2:44days rest until next Sunday. No time
2:46missed. So, Christian Watson was ranked
2:48as the low-end wide receiver one coming
2:49into this. He's ranked as a low-end wide
2:51receiver one coming out of it. I'm so
2:53damn excited about it now.
2:55Looking at Matthew Golden, Matthew
2:57Golden continues to generate separation.
3:00Matthew Golden continues to get peppered
3:02with targets, and he still has some
3:04pretty big drops. Like if Matthew Golden
3:07managed to hold onto the ball every
3:09single time it hit his hands, he may be
3:11the wide receiver one in fantasy. He's
3:13still incredible. You're still starting
3:15him every single week. He didn't
3:16practice at any point this week. He was
3:18questionable for this game. He still had
3:2013 targets. Still had the receiving
3:22touchdown. So, you assume with 10 days
3:24rest, he's going to be even better. So,
3:26yeah. I think Golden, Watson, you're
3:28super excited about. Tucker Kraft gets
3:31these six targets, six receptions, 53
3:33receiving yards, and the receiving
3:34touchdown. I mean, everything in Green
3:37Bay is funneled through these four
3:38players. It's Watson, Golden, Kraft, and
3:41Josh Jacobs. It is so different than the
3:44Green Bay Packers we knew a few years
3:46ago when they had Romeo Doubs, Jayden
3:48Reed, Dontayvion Wicks, Christian
3:50Watson, Matthew Golden, Tucker They had
3:52so many different players that they
3:53spread the ball out. They ran a wide
3:55receiver by committee. Now, it's
3:56extremely concentrated. Jordan Love is
3:59freaking balling. Obviously, he had the
4:02goofy interception, but didn't end up
4:04mattering. So, um uh Watson, Golden,
4:07must-start jam wide receivers every
4:08week. Kraft looks like he is getting
4:10better and better coming off the torn
4:12ACL. Must-start tight end every week.
4:14And going over to Josh Jacobs, you can
4:17blame the offensive line if you want.
4:19You can say that uh the offensive line's
4:21giving him no help whatsoever, which
4:24definitely is true.
4:26But,
4:27at the same time,
4:31like it does look like he's running in
4:33mud. He does not look good. So far, it
4:36hasn't mattered for fantasy because this
4:38dude is just non-stop scoring
4:40touchdowns. He scored two touchdowns
4:42against me in my matchup last week. He
4:44scores two touchdowns this week. I will
4:47say he is going to continue to be a
4:49must-start running back every week
4:52because very few players in the NFL are
4:54going to continue to get this type of
4:56volume. Like you had 21 carries and you
4:58had six targets for Josh Jacobs. That's
5:0027 total opportunities. So, you're going
5:03to start him every week. I don't think
5:04he has like top five running back upside
5:07though because the offensive line's too
5:08bad. He doesn't look that good himself
5:10either. But, you're definitely super
5:12excited if you have him in comparison to
5:14where you stood when he was suspended.
5:16And then Jordan Love continues to ball.
5:18Like if you play in a four-point passing
5:19touchdown format, maybe he's not as
5:21exciting cuz he doesn't run the ball,
5:23but in a six-point passing touchdown
5:24league, he's great.
5:26Now, let's move over to the Carolina
5:29Panthers.
5:30For Carolina, I think that this was a
5:33pretty big game for them cuz they just
5:35got absolutely embarrassed by the Tampa
5:38Bay Buccaneers last week. This was after
5:40like they looked really good earlier in
5:43the season, right? I actually had Bryce
5:45Young on my own fantasy team for a
5:47little bit of time. Um I ended up
5:49essentially giving him away for free
5:52before last week's game cuz I needed the
5:54open roster spot. I traded him for like
5:55$15 fab. But, the reason I did it is he
5:58has no rushing upside and he's not going
6:00to lead the NFL in passing. It's just
6:02not happening.
6:03So, I do stand by. I think Bryce Young
6:06has been on the waiver wire in my league
6:07ever since I traded him for fab dollars.
6:09He probably should be on the waiver wire
6:11in your league as well.
6:13Um he's just not going to run. And
6:14again, to project him to be the NFL
6:17leader in passing yards, passing
6:18touchdowns, it's not going to happen.
6:21Then going to Chuba Hubbard. Chuba
6:24Hubbard is like
6:25good Josh Jacobs. He's going to touch
6:28the ball over and over again. He's going
6:30to get a ton of usage as a receiver. But
6:32he's actually good, so he's going to
6:34score fantasy points. Chuba Hubbard has
6:3681 rushing yards, the rushing touchdown.
6:39At the same time, he has these seven
6:40receptions, 38 receiving yards. The only
6:43other running back you see getting in
6:44the game is Trevor Etienne, a
6:47fourth-round pick from a few years ago
6:49that's never played. This team doesn't
6:50have another running back. Even when
6:52Jonathan Brooks comes back, I don't
6:53think he's going to be able to hold a
6:54candle to what Chuba Hubbard's doing.
6:56So, Hubbard looks like a legit running
6:58back one the rest of season based on
7:00volume. And again, I think he's probably
7:02a better player than Josh Jacobs.
7:04Now,
7:05moving to the receivers. I am a big-time
7:09Terrace Marshall and McMillan fan,
7:11right? I'm sure if y'all watched this
7:13this off season, you knew that every
7:15single video I was talking about Terrace
7:16Marshall and McMillan in round four,
7:17Terrace Marshall and McMillan in round
7:18four, Terrace Marshall and McMillan in
7:19round four. I love this dude.
7:22But he is going to go as the offense
7:24goes.
7:24He has 11 targets in this game. He has
7:27six receptions. He has 58 receiving
7:29yards. Obviously disappointing. I mean,
7:31I was happy cuz I played against him in
7:33the Flock league, but um and one of
7:35those catches as well was at the very
7:37end of the game. It was just a complete
7:39garbage play. Like it didn't really
7:40matter.
7:41Regardless, I still think he is a
7:44high-end wide receiver two, low-end wide
7:46receiver one. If you were a believer in
7:48the Carolina Panthers offense, I think
7:50McMillan's going to be the biggest guy
7:52to bet on. With Jaylen Coker, Jaylen
7:55Coker saves himself with the receiving
7:58touchdown at the very end of the game.
8:01He does have five targets. He's very
8:02clearly the wide receiver two in this
8:04offense. Um like John Metchie's not
8:07touching him. Uh Darren Waller's not
8:09serious target competition.
8:11But Cokers probably just going to be
8:13poor man's Ted Ginn Jr. McMillan, right?
8:15Where McMillan's a low-end wide receiver
8:16one, high-end wide receiver two. Jalen
8:18Coker's going to be like a borderline
8:20flex play going into the future. I know
8:22he had a ton of success early in the
8:24season, but that was primarily off of a
8:25very low sample or a very small sample,
8:28so I don't know if you can trust him too
8:31much. And then I don't care about Darren
8:33Waller, he's not rostered in my league.
8:34He shouldn't be rostered in your league.
8:35He simply doesn't matter.
8:37But again, I had so much fun in this
8:41game because the Christian Watson stuff
8:44brought me to the lowest lows ever. And
8:47now I am riding the highest highs ever.
8:52But um I think that should be it for the
8:55game recap. Again, every Thursday night
8:58game recap, we get lucky enough to do
9:01the Arena Club pack openings. So, let me
9:04pull that up real quick. I obviously, as
9:08y'all can tell, um I've been crazy about
9:11football cards as of late. Maybe a
9:13little bit too much with the wall behind
9:15us. And I'm going to my first football
9:17card show this Saturday. If you're going
9:20to the show in Austin, Texas, I will see
9:22you there.
9:23But let me go ahead and pull this up,
9:28ladies and gentlemen. Give me 1 second.
9:30Here we go. Let's do this. Let me just a
9:32full screen us here as well.
9:35So, this is going to be from
9:41We get to do three packs every single
9:43Thursday night. We get to do two of the
9:44emerald packs. Now, obviously, they have
9:47the grails and they have the chase
9:49cards. What I want more than anything
9:52else is Oh, crap. I guess the chase card
9:55that I really wanted got pulled. There
9:56was a chase card that was like a um the
9:59Patrick Mahomes Super Bowl downtown. I
10:02would love the Kamara Kaboom because we
10:04have Kamara on our team. But let's go
10:07ahead. Let's pull this up and see what
10:10we can get here. I have to put my
10:12address in when we do this. If you all
10:13have done Arena Club, you know that, so
10:15not trying to show that on the screen.
10:19Give me 1 second.
10:23Okay.
10:25Let's hit complete order.
10:29Give us something good. Generally, I
10:31want players that are playing the game
10:34today. If we get a Christian Watson, I
10:37will legit lose my mind.
10:39Zay Flowers Zay Flowers has been playing
10:41so damn well. I actually have this exact
10:44card on the wall behind me. I have
10:46already bought it.
10:47But, I wonder if we should maybe just
10:49hold it through a few weeks and see if
10:52we can sell it a month or two from now
10:54with Lamar Jackson coming back and see
10:56if we get some pretty big games. Again,
10:58I love the card. I've literally bought
11:00this card
11:012 months ago myself.
11:03Um but, I may hold it anyway because
11:08again, with Lamar coming back, there is
11:10a chance that we do get a very big month
11:14from Flowers and we could see his value
11:16continue to rise. Cuz I think I actually
11:17bought the card for cheaper than that.
11:20Um I don't know if I got it 6 weeks ago
11:22or 2 months ago, but around there before
11:24the season started.
11:26Now, let me get our next one.
11:30Let's see what this is. Here, this is a
11:32Joe Burrow stained glass. I don't have
11:35any stained glasses. Was this one of the
11:36chases? I don't think so. I think the
11:38chase Burrow was the starry night. Um
11:41535 value. This is my first stained
11:44glass. This is a good-looking card.
11:47I may actually keep that one just
11:49because I don't have a card like that.
11:52But, we also get to do one extra
11:56um pack. This is the big one. This is
11:59the diamond pack. Let me see what we
12:02have here. What would be incredible, of
12:04course, like I would lose I would
12:07The odds are 0.03%. It's tiny. But, if
12:10we got this 2020 Downtown Super Bowl Tom
12:13Brady, That would be the best thing
12:15literally to ever happen other than
12:17Christian Watson coming back from the
12:18tunnel. I do love the Kabooms though.
12:21Like if we got a Mahomes or a Lawrence
12:22Kaboom, we have two Kabooms on the wall
12:25behind us. I've already bought this
12:26Justin Herbert downtown and this Justin
12:28Jefferson downtown. So hopefully we
12:31don't get those. I have also bought that
12:32JSN one as well, but we'll see what we
12:36get here.
12:41Again, we have yet to get a grail. We
12:45have yet to get a chase card either.
12:49Um so far this season.
12:51So I'm really hoping we at least
12:53eventually get one chase card or one
12:56grail.
12:58But
13:00Okay.
13:03And if we were going to get one, the
13:04diamond pack would be where we want to
13:06get it. Let's see what's it is.
13:14Is this This is a Mahomes rookie.
13:17This may legit be a chase card. This is
13:19a beautiful card.
13:24I am for sure going to be keeping that
13:26card.
13:28That was beautiful. I thought that was a
13:30chase, but I guess not. But yeah, I'm
13:32happy about that regardless.
13:34But I think that should be it for the
13:36stream. I'll leave a link to Arena Club
13:38in the description as well as the
13:40comment section. If you sign up with
13:42promo code Flock, I think you'll get 20%
13:45off your first pack opening on Arena
13:47Club. But that's all I got for you. I
13:50really appreciate you and I hope I get
13:51to see you out in the live stream later
13:53tomorrow.
