It is time to get to enough already where you know, even I can yell at things as we say enough already to players and storylines.

We are sick of Sal give me, give me, give me the heat.

Give me the Sal you got.

Y'all gotta understand.

Sal Lives at like a four.

I wanna be a Zen as Sal is, he's very relaxed.

He's very chill.

We're gonna work him up here.

Sal give everyone pound your fist on the table and give us the passion of something you have said enough already too.

Oh my goodness.

Thank you for the tee up there fitz enough already with Audric estimate, please.

Now I understand why we're all talking about Adrick estimate.

We're starving for any type of running backs on waver wires.

All the running backs are staying healthy, which is great for them right now.

But for fantasy the past two months, there's been no guys to add.

So when Audri estimate comes out and they're saying he's gonna see more usage and then he sees a season high 45% of the snaps handles.

Last week, 14 of the Broncos 17 backfield carries, everything starts to look great.

All the articles for fantasy come out a estimate.

The poster boy, he starts the trend.

I see him go in leagues that I'm in for $45.39 32 and 19 on the waiver wire fab budgets.

I know it's towards the end of the season.

You can't take it with you.

But man, it seems like we are getting a little bit too, let's just say excited for estimate in this game, he averaged 3.7 yards per carry on his 14 touches.

Wasn't all that great.

This backfield is still using three running backs devote.

Williams is probably the best pass protector.

Jalil mcloughlin might be best pass catcher.

They each have their own roles and when they get to the red zone, Bo Nick is a mobile quarterback as well who is going to be factoring in here.

So a sime, I understand you're seeing 14 to 17 carries.

That is great.

You're a rookie running back down the stretch, pick him up, stash him, see what happens.

But I don't think this is a viable fantasy starter right now.

I think there's too many guys in this backfield and I wouldn't be shocked if a week or two, Sean Payton falls in love with a different running back because it seems like that's sort of the case every other month in that offense.

But for me right now enough already with Adrick, you can't start him this week.

Oh, I got the goose bumps from Sal going off, Andy Barons give us an enough already fits.

Uh Green Bay is coming back from nearby and I've got people in my mentions asking if it's Marshawn Lloyd's season.

Like he's gonna take a job from Josh Jacobs.

You guys.

No one is coming for Josh Jacobs job enough already with that in my, in my many years in this role.

Uh I have never seen a great player as chronically disrespected as Jacobs.

The same people who love to rattle off a stats about other running backs seem to suddenly not care about those same metrics when discussing Jacobs.

Ok.

But here are the facts Jacobs has ranked at or near the top of the league in forcing missed tackles in every healthy season of his career right now.

In fact, Jacobs is sixth in missed tackles and also sixth in yards after contact for carry.

He has 20 runs of 10 or more yards that is tied for fourth in the league.

The same as Jamir Gibbs is also averaging almost five yards per carry on the season.

So I don't know what you people are dissatisfied with possibly the fact that he's a little light on touchdowns, but the offense is great.

So the T Ds are gonna come in time.

Uh I will never understand why we're always trying to get teams to move on from Jacobs who is definitely definitively one of the league's different difference making running backs.

Uh I will tolerate no more Jacobs disrespect.
