There are some slow starts we’re not fans of too (25:00), like those had by Joe Mixon, Allen Robinson, Michael Gallup, T.Y. Hilton, and AJ Green.
Next up, Matt and Dalton’s new segment titled “Who Got Shelled,” where they discuss a defense or defensive player who got absolutely shelled the prior week, then they’ll dive into the data and point out the defensive matchups you might want to take advantage of the following Sunday (45:30).
