I wish Bucky Irving’s run style was in Rashad White’s body and that’s something I’ll just, that’s it.
He is a good true running back, good vision, good tempo, understands how to pay, but I just wish he was 205.
He just doesn’t have that extra juice again.
That sounds like just parsing, but it matters a lot for guys taking hits like that, those add up through the season.
So, I mean, he’s already got a hamstring.
I like him.
I just think it’s never gonna be his backfield.
He’s always gonna have to split it.
Uh uh Even if he can take all the touches, vision wise and understand them and everything, it’s just, I don’t think his body can handle those many touches, don’t know if he can be anything more than a flex.
And honestly, I think his presence has made Rashad White like a kind of risky flex at this point because Rashad White’s also not gonna go anywhere either which is gonna impede the whole Bucky Irving like full deal breakout here.
Um Just because man, I he’s a good receiver and he’s a useful player is Rashad White.
So, um, like this back is this backfield just gonna end up being messy is, is the reality of the situation here from a props perspective.
I think like both of these receivers are interesting.
Falcons played a good bit of single high coverage so that could be like a Mike Evans deal.
But also they kind of like to go away from Evans when there’s the kind of like a good corner matchup so it could be a Godwin game.
I mean, uh I also think that God win, like he could catch like eight balls in this game and his prop is like 6.5.
So maybe that’s maybe that’s, it’s still, it’s still pretty beefy.
So I don’t know, I don’t, I don’t see a ton uh there uh in terms of like props on the buck side, maybe like Kirk Cousins over completions, it’d be another one too well.
So, yeah, I was gonna spin this to the Falcons side here and um I like the Kirk Cousins over completions.
Um I think that look, the Bucks, they play the most zone coverage in the league, uh which is pretty typical and they’re, they’re still like a blitz heavy team.
This feels like a Drake London game.
Potentially, we haven’t seen like the big Drake London game, but we, his usage got cranked up 12 targets last week.
Uh We just, I mean, we just gotta get Kirk like on time and hitting them and I think he’ll be his, his over runner in terms of receptions is 5.5 and I could see him getting peppered in this game for sure.
Like a 67 catch type game for him, especially coming off 12 targets.
He hasn’t had that big game, like big, big game yet.
He’s had solid performances.
Uh, but I would say this could potentially be that type of game.
