00:00And we're going to start with a running back with a toe issue and an opportunity to play
00:08against a defense that's probably going to destroy them collectively.
00:12So I'll let you take it from there while I hit the cough button.
00:15Yeah.
00:16Kansas City Chiefs, second best against the run this year of any other team in the NFL
00:21and Bucky Irving already has a toe issue and a game script that could be in the negative.
00:25So this is just a bad confluence of events, right?
00:28What's that?
00:29It's like an old movie, a series of unfortunate events.
00:31That could be the feeling here for Bucky Irving.
00:34You don't like running backs with toe issues.
00:35We've seen this many times here.
00:37They say, oh, it's questionable.
00:39Maybe a game time decision and then they play and then it's just not good.
00:42So toe foot issues about the worst thing you can possibly get here as a running back.
00:47And it's not his backfield completely either anyway, because Rashad White is there.
00:50And if it is a negative game script, well, Rashad White's going to work out of that passing
00:54game on you.
00:56lot more than you going to see Bucky Irving and that's unfortunate.
01:00So it's a bad matchup, bad health, bad game script, and just a lot of bad when it comes
01:05to Bucky Irving.
01:06So I want to give you pivot points here because I just don't want to say, well, you know,
01:09it's it's not, you know, you can't start him because you need to start other guys here.
01:13So Austin Eckler, especially with Brian Robinson, not being 100% healthy, he's a guy you could
01:17start this week.
01:18I think over him, you could Nick Chubb is absolutely a guy I would start over him or
01:22Andre Stevenson, Tracy, even Chuba Hubbard, especially this week to against New Orleans.
01:28They're going to continue to try to run the football as much as they can, because they
01:31don't really have a lot else to talk about on offense.
01:34So that that those are all guys to me that would be pivot points for Bucky Irving this
01:38week.
01:39So I just don't like the matchup.
01:40I don't like the health.
01:41I just don't like anything about this.
01:42So I would fade away from it this week, hope for better health next week and a better matchup.
01:45And I think that would certainly go a long way.
01:48So don't overreact.
01:49Don't drop them.
01:50Don't do anything like that.
01:51Find an alternative this week at RB2 or Flex, because I think there's a lot better choices
01:55out there.
