Guaranteed human.
And we do a little Halloween sometimes. Does the Pope dress up? He winks on Halloween. He gets right up next to the microphone. I hear you can almost hear the eyelashes hit each other. You've never seen Italy so quiet as when the Pope gets up to wink on Halloween. Listen to Artists on Artists on Artists on Artists every Thursday on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
What's up, friends, and welcome in to The Extra Point right here on Fantasy Pros. I am Chris Welsh, and of course, the Undertaker, Andrew Erickson, is here with me. This is our show. No, this is your show. The podcast of the people, for the people, and with the people, because we are live on the Fantasy Pros Discord right now, where we've got an audience in here. They have a very, very politely have their hands raised and we are going to bring them up just like it's class schools in session where you guys are going to get to come up, ask us questions and you dictate the pace and the vibe of the show. That is it. That's I mean, we sometimes have a little thing or two plan, but we are going to be answering your questions.
You're starting to sit everything but your Thursday night football questions. I'll tell this. We talked a little bit before the podcast. We're going to be. tough on crime this year. Erickson plays the nice guy. He's good cop. I'm bad cop. But even Erickson's gone to bad cop. If we hear Thursday night football mentions, it's an immediate boot off. Not like you're going to kick you out of the room. We're just going to lock your question out. So no Thursday night questions.
What is the impact of A.J. Brown’s injury on Week 1 fantasy lineups?
If you're listening to this podcast, You should hear a clean, it should be clean living for you for no Thursday night. And if you do, you're going to hear someone get booted off. So we're going to be tough on crime this year. Mr. Andrew Erickson, the big question, how are you doing after one of the most abysmal performances of a second half you could have had really by your quarterback? There's obviously a big piece of news out there. A.J. Brown could have a really, really bad injury. We don't know at this moment. It could be two weeks to a C. season apparently on recording and uh drake may was absolutely horrific with his third pick but what it was your initial takes on the aj brown situation with what is being deemed as maybe a high ankle sprain i think i've seen as much as like four weeks but once the mri is out there there could be something a lot worse that could be floating that maybe there's something nefarious but what's your take on aj brown
obviously super disappointing because he was a player that I was very high on entering the season, acknowledged that he was an older receiver, so there was always a chance that, you know, more likely to sustain an injury. But that was more related to his degenerative knee injury and not necessarily his ankle injury. I mean, the injury itself could happen to anybody, right? Just like it's rolled up on a pass breakup, rolls his ankle, and it's the dreaded high ankle sprain, which besides the PCL injury, it's got to be one of those worst injuries in terms of, yeah, maybe he's not out for the season, but when he does come back, is he back to himself right these things tend to linger with these skill position players and someone like AJ Brown where it doesn't work in his favor is that he is older so the recovery you're expecting to not be as speedy as a 23 year old 24 year old spring chicken wide receiver so
That's really unfortunate. Hurts for Drake May as well, because you obviously saw the offensive performance when A.J. Brown was playing. And then when he was off the field and they were forced to put Romeo Dobbs in the
game. I mean, Romeo Dobbs, what a disaster. Romeo
Dobbs had an egregious drop. I mean, Matt Collins was playing ahead of him to start the game. I
don't know if you were listening to the whole thing. It was really interesting. They were saying how essentially, and this is a testament to the Seahawks defense.
