Speaker 1: eight to twelve Mack and Bone. They're being lazy. They're

Speaker 1: taking another day off for the holiday. No Charlotte Sports

9
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:40,239
Speaker 1: Today on from ten to twelve. But Colin Hoggard not

10
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 1: being lazy. He's earned a day off. So that's why

00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,480
Speaker 1: we're here from you, with you from eight up until noon,

00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:50,160
Speaker 1: four hours of sports talk coming your way. We're gonna

13
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,959
Speaker 1: talk a lot of panthers, a lot of college football,

14
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 1: little college basketball. I got a treat for sharp as well.

15
00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 1: But we're gonna start with some Thanksgiving Day recap. I'm

16
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: your host, Josh Marlow to am, I right, is Anthony Flounder,

17
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 1: pag Nada up on time? Prompt ready to go? And

18
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 1: then behind the board as Aaron Shroppy Shropshire men, Happy Thanksgiving,

19
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: Happy belated Thanksgiving, I hope you'all all had a great holiday.

20
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 1: Mine was rather underwhelming.

21
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 2: I wonder why, well, I mean, you go go ahead

22
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 2: and go go in. I mean, you can just lead

23
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 2: off with we don't even have to talk yet about

24
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 2: the NFL games. You could just lead off with the

25
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:34,759
Speaker 2: reason why your Thanksgiving was underwhelming.

26
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 1: When you get to Thanksgiving dinner and you're looking at

27
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:42,479
Speaker 1: the spread of food, I think you expect two things

28
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 1: to be on the table.

29
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,639
Speaker 3: Ah, I did not think you would criticize the spread.

30
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 1: Carolina getting their ass kicked in basketball was a problem,

31
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 1: and it ruined it.

32
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 3: It only ruined my day.

33
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 1: But when I go to go make my plate, there's

34
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 1: no deviled X at Thanksgiving dinner?

35
00:01:59,000 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 3: What are we doing?

36
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 2: Like? I could take her? I mean I do not

37
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 2: like deviled eggs. Yeah, that actually wouldn't bother me at all.

38
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 4: Whenever you said the problem, whenever we were here before the

39
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 4: show started and you said, you know, in the side studio,

40
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 4: the two items that were missing from your Thanksgiving, those

41
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:17,679
Speaker 4: are two items I could totally do with that, the

42
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 4: first one being the deviled eggs and second only pumpkin pie.

43
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 3: I no, not really know, Okay.

44
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 1: But whenever you're looking at Thanksgiving a Mealeah, like you

45
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 1: expect that to be on the table for you to

46
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 1: when you put your plate together.

47
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 3: You don't have to like it, but never once has

48
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:34,959
Speaker 3: been on the table.

49
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,959
Speaker 1: Okay, Thanksgiving, you're you're Italian, y'all do things a little

50
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: bit different from a Southerners. Not seeing deviled eggs and

51
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:45,919
Speaker 1: not seeing pumpkin pie. Yeah, was really heartbreaking, really disappointing.

52
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: And I should have known then what I was going

53
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 1: to be in for, because from four point thirty to

54
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: six forty five, my god, I mean, just an absolute

55
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 1: waste of time. I thought by becoming by not becoming

56
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,239
Speaker 1: a cow or not being a cowboy fan anymore, I'd

57
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: get to enjoy my holiday.

58
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 3: Well, you should have been a cowboy fan yesterday.

59
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,399
Speaker 1: Instead, I get to watch my favorite team in sports

60
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: just get their ass kicked by a team and a

61
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 1: coach that I hate. So Thanksgiving twenty twenty five, big

62
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 1: old bigma to you.

63
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 3: I'm am ready for Christmas. Yeah the minutes I've heard

64
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 3: that one. Yeah.

65
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,959
Speaker 4: See, that's why you just really shouldn't let sports affect

66
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 4: you that much, especially on a holiday. Man, That's that's

67
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 4: really not that I mean it's it's Thanksgiving.

68
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:29,519
Speaker 3: Man.

69
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 4: What matters is see, I think it's more concerning that

70
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 4: you leave your family to go watch a Carolina basketball

71
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 4: game on Thanksgiving.

72
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 1: Oh man, wow, okay, but Trump, I don't expect you

73
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 1: to watch the UNC basketball game.

74
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 3: Yeah I was. I was with my family, so I

75
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 3: did so. Yeah, I was locked in.

76
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 1: So if they would have played well, would have been

77
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 1: I probably would have been okay. They did not play well,

78
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 1: so man, I was not okay. There was a lot

79
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 1: and I mean a lot of cussing after. You know,

80
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: we had a great I had a great time with

81
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: my family. We gathered around. We like to sing music together.

82
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,119
Speaker 1: We sung a lot of great music. Some of it

83
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 1: was very heartfelt, very touching, and then about an hour

84
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 1: and a half later, a lot of a lot of

85
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 1: four letter words I can't repeat on the radio.

86
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,239
Speaker 2: So, and the music that's being sung, ladies and gentlemen,

87
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 2: is very religious music. So I mean this was just

88
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,799
Speaker 2: a complete one eighty I mean just a complete turn

89
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 2: of face.

90
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 3: So you're not singing my grandma go out run over

91
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 3: by a reindeer and.

92
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: No, we were singing like, how great thou art victory

93
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 1: in Jesus? Oh, wow, and I'm sitting there singing every word,

94
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 1: maybe raising my hand, doing all that type of thing,

95
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:44,600
Speaker 1: and then an.

96
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 2: Hour later saying, you know what, forgive me God was

97
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,360
Speaker 2: reminded why I hate this team, I in fact need

104
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 1: fair point. I brought what I was asked to bring. Okay,

105
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 1: I was asked to bring King Hawaiian's dinner rolls.

106
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 3: Well, dude, that's contributing a lot.

107
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 1: Hey, that's what I was told to bring. I tracked

108
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 1: them down. I had to go to three stores on

109
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:22,799
Speaker 1: Wednesday night to find them.

110
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 3: I found them.

111
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, because you waited until Wednesday night, that's the problem.

112
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: It was okay, Well, Monday night, Monday night football I was.

113
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:31,159
Speaker 1: I was at the station till eleven o'clock.

114
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 2: Okay, Tuesday, perfect day, Yeah, Tuesday, I don't go to

115
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 2: the grocery store on Tuesdays. You barely go to the

116
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 2: I don't go to the store on Tuesdays. Why what's

117
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 2: wrong with Tuesdays? Do they not have uh, the special

118
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:45,600
Speaker 2: they don't have the deals?

119
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then.

120
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 2: Wednesday, after walking back and forth to the doghouse, I

121
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 2: mean walk inside the stores, but you looked like death.

122
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 1: The problem was was that we were all given assignments

123
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:00,280
Speaker 1: of what to ring.

124
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,800
Speaker 2: Okay, so who was supposed to bring the deviled eggs?

125
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,040
Speaker 2: Nobody what you so go keep? So there you go.

126
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I wasn't. I wasn't present when the list

127
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 3: I put together.

128
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 1: Okay, So when when my uncle finally owned up to

129
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,720
Speaker 1: one and tell anybody to bring deviled eggs, guess who's

130
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:20,479
Speaker 1: in charge of the list next year for Thanksgiving?

131
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,159
Speaker 2: Oh, have fun with that, because you're gonna forget something

132
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 2: and then people are going to be mad at you.

133
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 1: Okay, but I can forget the custard pie that my

134
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: that my aunt brought, or sweet potato bread pudding that

135
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 1: my other aunt brought, like, ah, that I can do

136
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 1: without that in the name of having deviled eggs. So

137
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: I called my dad when I left because they were

138
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 1: doing the diabolical thing and eating Thanksgiving dinner at four

139
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 1: thirty and I told him they're coming on Sunday to

140
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: visit family. I said, you gotta bring deviled eggs, you

141
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: got to bring pumpkin pie.

142
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:53,040
Speaker 3: A little fit.

143
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 2: He must have been fired up about that that they

144
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 2: were eating at four thirty.

145
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 3: And I don't know.

146
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,360
Speaker 1: I got a victory dance from after the Cowboys win yesterday.

147
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:03,280
Speaker 3: What Yeah, he told me. If the Cowboys, why is.

148
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,039
Speaker 2: Everybody else dancing but the people that are supposed to

149
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,559
Speaker 2: be dancing. I don't understand what's going on here, because

150
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 2: because we had the dance from nine or West early

151
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 2: in the week that was that was shameful, there's no

152
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 2: doubt about that. And then now we've got little Fitty

153
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 2: sending in dance videos.

154
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 3: Oh boy, oh boy. Rop uh.

155
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 4: It is a hell of a trend that has started

156
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 4: to where everyone else except the Panthers do it do

157
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 4: a victory dance.

158
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 3: To be fair, we have dance till Monday. Till Monday.

159
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 3: You really believe that?

160
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 2: Look at panther flound Yeah no, no, maybe not, maybe not,

161
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 2: I know, probably saving the score prediction for a little

162
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 2: bit later in the show.

163
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 1: It's yourself. Yeah, yeah, I know. I know you should

164
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 1: do it two hours. You gotta got four hours today.

165
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 1: I know it's a double the time. Hopefully you don't

166
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: need a doctor when we're done. Wow, all right, you're

167
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 1: proud of yourself for that one, aren't you. I'm always

168
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 1: proud of myself. Let's talk things given day football, shall we.

169
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 3: Let's do it.

170
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 1: Some people were billing it as the greatest slate ever,

171
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 1: just with how a massive the first two games were.

172
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 1: You get Burrow back for the nightcap, and that was

173
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,320
Speaker 1: a real big game. Because now you look at it,

174
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 1: the Bengals at four and four and eight, or there's

175
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 1: two games out of first place.

176
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 3: Oh, I love it. I love it.

177
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,120
Speaker 1: May have a legitimate shot to at least make things

178
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 1: interesting down the stretch. But let's go in chronological order.

179
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:33,319
Speaker 1: Packers meet the Lions to to start the day. Are

180
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 1: the Packers the most difficult team in the NFC to

181
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 1: figure out?

182
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 2: No?

183
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 3: No, it's the Panthers, you think so. I think it's

184
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 3: the Packers.

185
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 2: I mean just in general, like they're an eight three

186
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 2: and one football team and.

187
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 3: They played yesterday.

188
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, if they were to win the if they were

189
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,840
Speaker 1: to go to the Super Bowl, wouldn't be surprised because

190
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: Jordan Love was the best he's been all year.

191
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 2: There's your key, right there, is what does Jordan Love

192
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 2: look like every time that they take the field, because

193
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 2: there's no consistency to his game. If he was a

194
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:08,559
Speaker 2: consistent quarterback, then we would be talking about this team

195
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 2: as probably the best in the NFC. But as we

196
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 2: sit here right now, I think based off of what

197
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 2: we've seen this year, and this is not Jordan Love's

198
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:22,559
Speaker 2: fault that you know, Matthew Stafford has decided that he's

199
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,679
Speaker 2: turning the clock back and all of a sudden he's

200
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 2: going to put up a career year. But I mean,

201
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 2: I think they would be right there in the conversation

202
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,319
Speaker 2: as I look at them. I mean, I don't even

203
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 2: think they're as consistent as Philly, and I don't think

204
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 2: Philly is all that consistent either.

205
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, Philly can do two things. But I trust them more.

206
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 2: And I guess the part of that is because they

207
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 2: you know, of course, won they're coming off a super

208
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 2: Bowl title. But I do think that going into where

209
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 2: you know, if the playoffs started today, you would probably

210
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 2: have the Packers third on the list. But still there

211
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,559
Speaker 2: is a chance that if you see the type of

212
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 2: team that you saw yesterday.

213
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 3: They can beat just about anybody in the NFC.

214
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just you know, and Trump, maybe you have

215
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 1: a point because you know, we watched the Panthers more closely,

216
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 1: But I mean the Packers play in primetime pretty frequently.

217
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: They're playing, you know, in national TV windows and I

218
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 1: don't know which version of Green.

219
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 3: Bay I'm gonna tune in to watch now.

220
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,839
Speaker 1: And yesterday I watched a team that I was watching

221
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,200
Speaker 1: Jordan Love like that that passed the man on fourth

222
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 1: down to effectively end the game and win the game.

223
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:31,320
Speaker 1: Like was just like I think the parts like the

224
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 1: prototypical Jordan Love play where you're sitting there and like

225
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 1: I'm even saying just throw it away because there's nothing there.

226
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 3: He holds it, he holds it, he holds it.

227
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 1: That watch here finally gets across the middle of the

228
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,439
Speaker 1: field and he makes a play. Like that's a team

229
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,439
Speaker 1: that could, you know, first off, win the NFC North,

230
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 1: which because I don't trust the Bears until the Bears

231
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 1: do it, I'm gonna trust Green Bay to do it.

232
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 1: But when they play to that level, shop, I think

233
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 1: they're as good as anyone in the NFC. But as

234
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 1: we've seen against games like against Carolina and others, there's

235
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,840
Speaker 1: certainly times they play down of their competition.

236
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that's their biggest flaw. I think whenever

237
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:07,079
Speaker 4: they're playing good teams, you're gonna see the Packers at

238
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 4: their best. Whenever they play guys or teams that are

239
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 4: scraping the bottom of the barrel, I think they've shown

240
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:14,680
Speaker 4: you what you're gonna get out of those games.

241
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 3: So it's a it's a bit weird. I think.

242
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 4: I do think the Panthers are kind of doing the

243
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 4: same thing this year. Though you look at the one

244
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 4: game we thought they were supposed to win, one of

245
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:26,079
Speaker 4: their worst games, you look at some of the tougher

246
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 4: games on their schedule. You know, all of the Packers game,

247
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 4: it's not you know, record breaking with offensively, but it's

248
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 4: it's still a game that they were able to, you know,

249
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 4: complete their game plan and get the win. So I think,

250
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,240
Speaker 4: you know, that's that's been the interesting part about Carolina

251
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:44,680
Speaker 4: is that you know, against the Jets, against the Saints,

252
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 4: they play down to their opponent, but they can also

253
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 4: play up to their opponent as well, And I think

254
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 4: that's exactly what you're seeing out of the Packers this

255
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 4: year is that the games you think they should have

256
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 4: taken care of with with relative ease, you know, I'll

257
00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,320
Speaker 4: you know, with with the Browns and and Carol on it,

258
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 4: that's the game that they drop. But whenever they're playing

259
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 4: a high caliber, you know, football team, that's when you

260
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 4: look and you say, wow, yeah, this is the Packers

261
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,319
Speaker 4: team that we thought we'd see throughout the entire season.

262
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 1: Two more things on Packers' lines and we'll move on

263
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:16,760
Speaker 1: to Cowboys and Chiefs. I get the same feeling I

264
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,439
Speaker 1: think watching Jordan Love I get sometimes with Bryce Young,

265
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,719
Speaker 1: where I think sometimes is his inconsistent play as much

266
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,680
Speaker 1: as it is him individually. I do think Matt Lafleur,

267
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 1: who's his play caller, sometimes is a big reason why

268
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 1: he looks the way that he looks, you know how

269
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:34,719
Speaker 1: I fear about Dave Canalis and Bryce Young where I

270
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 1: come away more whenever Bryce doesn't play great, and not

271
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 1: always excusing Bryce from it, but thinking that the play

272
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:42,679
Speaker 1: calling was just as big as an issue as why

273
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 1: he wasn't playing up to par.

274
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 3: Also, Tom Brady's gotten really good at this thing.

275
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,359
Speaker 1: Like I don't know what Bro did in the offseason

276
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 1: but he's quietly become I'm not saying he's the best.

277
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 3: I prefer Greg Olsen over him. I still think Tony

278
00:12:58,920 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 3: Romo is.

279
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:03,719
Speaker 1: Better than him, but he definitely sounded the part as

280
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,199
Speaker 1: a big time broadcaster yesterday afternoon.

281
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 4: About those classes he was wearing pregame though, Yeah, you're

282
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 4: looking pretty fresh. Uh, you know, as much as Tom

283
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 4: Brady might have had a good week this week, little

284
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 4: slip up last week that we will gloss right over.

285
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 4: But oh geez, but yeah, you know, Tom, It's just

286
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 4: it's just like with anything, you know, practice makes perfect.

287
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 4: The more reps he has in the broadcast booth, the

288
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 4: better he's gonna get.

289
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 3: Well, that's not true.

290
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 1: There are some people that have been doing it for

291
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:30,720
Speaker 1: quite some time that aren't good at it.

292
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 3: That's in your opinion, which is a lot of people.

293
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 4: So I'm just saying in general, the reason he's getting

294
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,960
Speaker 4: better is because he's doing it more and more. But yeah,

295
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,439
Speaker 4: I definitely think that, you know, should Greg Olsen, to

296
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 4: my opinion, still have the number one spot for for Fox. Yes,

297
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,320
Speaker 4: But I understand business wise why you'd want to have

298
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 4: the name Tom Brady on all your quote unquote biggest

299
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:55,840
Speaker 4: games of the year. I think it makes sense and

300
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 4: it's good to see him growing in that in that role.

301
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 1: By the way, the Lions, I don't think they're going

302
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 1: to make the playoffs. No, I don't think they are either,

303
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 1: because they've.

304
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:10,679
Speaker 2: Got Cowboys, Rams on the road, Steelers at home, Vikings

305
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,559
Speaker 2: on the road, and Bears on the road to close

306
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 2: out the season. And I don't think on the surface

307
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 2: you should be shocked. I mean, this was because you

308
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 2: had a lot of people were picking to make the

309
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 2: Super Bowl that was ignorant.

310
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 1: You lost both of your coordinators that were a real

311
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 1: big part of what they were, what they built up to.

312
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:29,240
Speaker 3: Last year being fifteen and two.

313
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 1: And like Dan Campbell, correct me if I'm wrong, this

314
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 1: is the first time he's ever been a play caller

315
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 1: because what he had tight ends coach for he got

316
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 1: the head coaching job with the Saints or with the Lions.

317
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 3: I believe. I believe that's right.

318
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 1: And whenever he was the interim for the Miami Dolphins

319
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 1: back in the day, I don't think he called plays

320
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 1: there either. So you you bring in a new play caller,

321
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 1: but then in the middle of the season he gets

322
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 1: stripped to play calling duties. For Dan Campbell, who I

323
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 1: think is not a good job, but he's just I mean,

324
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 1: he's learning just as much as any went on that

325
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 1: staff in terms of how to be a play caller.

326
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 1: So I hate it because I've I've I've enjoyed Detroit

327
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:10,200
Speaker 1: being good. I think Jared Goff's like second act in

328
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 1: the NFL has been really fun to watch. But that

329
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 1: schedule what suggests are not going to the playoffs.

330
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 3: Well, and that's the thing too.

331
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 4: Last year was their window to win and they just

332
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 4: got so unlucky with all the injuries that piled up

333
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 4: at the end of at the end of their season

334
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 4: to where it's just it was just bad luck. Detroit

335
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 4: got a hit with the Detroit curse to where everything

336
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 4: looked like it was going all right finally and then

337
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 4: your team falls apart dude injury and you know, and

338
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 4: then obviously you go fifteen and two, you lose your

339
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 4: two coordinators. I mean, it's gonna be hard to bounce back.

340
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 4: So it feels like it feels like last year was

341
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 4: supposed to be their year if nothing went you know,

342
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 4: wrong on the injury side of things. You know, I

343
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 4: would have loved to have seen the Lions win a

344
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 4: Super Bowl that that franchise and that fan base deserves.

345
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 3: It.

346
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 4: Definitely would have preferred to see the Lions went over

347
00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 4: the Eagles last year, But here we are, and yeah,

348
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 4: I would I think the Eagles, I mean the Lions

349
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 4: get two more wins. I think over the Steelers and

350
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 4: the Vikings, I think those two they can win. But

351
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 4: other than that, yeah, they're gonna have a tough road

352
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 4: to try to make a playoff.

353
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 1: Push stat Picker writes in on the fandual text line,

354
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 1: did you'll listen to the broadcast he called plays in

355
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 1: year two?

356
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 3: Trump?

357
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 1: If you can double check that, I'd like to know

358
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 1: if that's right or not. I don't remember him being

359
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 1: their play caller, But maybe I don't remember that either.

360
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:30,000
Speaker 1: Maybe it was a situation where kind of, like, you know,

361
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 1: remember when Joe Brady got all the love at LSU

362
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 1: for being the passing game coordinator. Maybe Ben Johnson was

363
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 1: the one that was putting in the game plan.

364
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:40,760
Speaker 3: I got it? Did he?

365
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 4: This is not the first time Campbell has made this

366
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 4: change to play caller. He also assumed to play calling

367
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,800
Speaker 4: responsibilities during the twenty twenty one season.

368
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 3: Interesting, ok, okay, he did all right?

369
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 2: That was with Ben Johnson on staff, or maybe that

370
00:16:56,440 --> 00:17:00,120
Speaker 2: was before Ben Johnson got there, and so he yeah, okay,

371
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 2: well that makes a little more sense.

372
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 1: We'll get the research team on it. While we're in

373
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 1: the commercial break, Whe's drum, which is where we're going

374
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 1: next week. Come back, we'll continue to talk about all

375
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:14,120
Speaker 1: the Thanksgiving Day action. Big win for the Cowboys, big

376
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:17,159
Speaker 1: win for the Bengals, two Tobacco road schools. We're in

377
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,919
Speaker 1: action on college basketball, and then we'll turn our attention

378
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 1: to some Panthers news and notes that's coming up next

379
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,399
Speaker 1: on the Young Guns. You're listening to Sports Radio ninety

380
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:38,119
Speaker 1: two seven w FNZA. Welcome back to Charlotte or not

381
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:39,120
Speaker 1: Charlotte Sports Today.

382
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:41,520
Speaker 3: It's the Young Days. There's a part of it.

383
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:43,680
Speaker 1: There's a part of that show here, baby. Yeah, we

384
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 1: got we got one half of the show, all right.

385
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,119
Speaker 1: So we're coming back from break. We gear the rejoining

386
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:53,399
Speaker 1: of Smoke, promoing today's Kyle Bailey Show, which will be

387
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 1: hosted by William Eugene polotchik Oh. Everyone at the station

388
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 1: has a Willie impression. Yeah, where did what do you

389
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:04,679
Speaker 1: think of smokes? Willy p impression?

390
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,960
Speaker 2: Because it's the most inaccurate, but at the same time

391
00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 2: maybe the most funny of the impressions. Uh, Willy is

392
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,879
Speaker 2: going to be incredibly fired up because now this is

393
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 2: the second straight time that he has come in and

394
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:20,719
Speaker 2: hosted a show where the boardop has done a promo,

395
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 2: and he's done it.

396
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 3: In his voice. Seriously, exactly.

397
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 1: You noticed how yesterday we did not get a single

398
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,159
Speaker 1: photo from Willie about his Thanksgiving Day spread.

399
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 2: I'm concerned did he get taken out by this year's Thanksgiving?

400
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:35,159
Speaker 4: Like?

401
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 3: Is the man still with us?

402
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 2: Is?

403
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 3: I think that the important question?

404
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, because I mean I was waiting all day because usually,

405
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,640
Speaker 1: like I mean, this is like, this is his holiday man,

406
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,920
Speaker 1: Like he used to be in the kitchen.

407
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 2: He gets to be in there cooking. Oh you know what?

408
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:56,040
Speaker 2: And maybe the turkey was dry? Oh man, and he

409
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 2: didn't want to show it off? Are we thinking it

410
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 2: only thinking like like Clark Riswold type dry.

411
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 3: Where you're literally I mean, I hope not for his

412
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 3: family's sake.

413
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, But I mean then again, this this is Willy

414
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,399
Speaker 1: he also, I mean maybe they went like the right

415
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 1: where they went and got like the gym and nick spread,

416
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 1: like they just didn't want to cook this year. He

417
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,160
Speaker 1: didn't want to show off someone else's cooking. I mean,

418
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 1: this is a very insecure main when it comes to

419
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 1: his cooking capabilities, no stop it. So but I was

420
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 1: disappointed because usually he's in his little you know, three

421
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:34,639
Speaker 1: quarter zip up and he's got his he's cheesing, and

422
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 1: he's sitting there thinking about how thankful he is for

423
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 1: for Bram Bronico. But we did not get a single

424
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 1: thing from Willie on Thanksgiving, and I was really disappointed

425
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:52,000
Speaker 1: in that. But Smoke's impression wildly inaccurate, wildly hilarious, unlike

426
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 1: his Mac Brown impression, which is both not accurate and

427
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 1: not funny. See, I think I think it's pretty accurate.

428
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 1: I think he he actually has a pretty accurate impression.

429
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:05,399
Speaker 3: Do I find it funny?

430
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,400
Speaker 2: Not really, But I think that's because I'm a Tarial fan.

431
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 2: If I wasn't, then I think that I would find

432
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 2: it pretty funny as well.

433
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:17,400
Speaker 3: But I will push back. I think it is pretty accurate,

434
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 3: to be honest with you, all.

435
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 1: Right, Well, reasonable minds can differ, and that's what we're

436
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:24,639
Speaker 1: gonna do when it comes to smokes impressions. Let's put

437
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:28,439
Speaker 1: the finishing touches up on the Thanksgiving Day Action the

438
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,960
Speaker 1: four thirty game, best game of the day. Dallas beats

439
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:34,439
Speaker 1: Kansas City. Cowboys have quietly won three in a row.

440
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:38,320
Speaker 1: They're now above five hundred, and you were mentioning that

441
00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:40,680
Speaker 1: you don't think the Lions are going to the postseason.

442
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 1: The Chiefs are five hundred, and their schedule down the

443
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 1: stretch puts them in a situation where they're gonna have

444
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 1: to probably win out. I know Dance and Romo we're

445
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,720
Speaker 1: talking after the broadcast, after the game. They don't think

446
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:56,160
Speaker 1: ten and seven gets them in, especially when they don't

447
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 1: have the head to heads against Buffalo. That game against

448
00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,360
Speaker 1: Jacksonville comes in to play that they lost early on

449
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 1: in the season. And I want to be able to

450
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,640
Speaker 1: talk about this and not get you know, theories going

451
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,640
Speaker 1: up that I'm still a Dallas fan. I think everyone

452
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:12,679
Speaker 1: wants to put the focus on, like what's wrong with

453
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,879
Speaker 1: Kansas City. I just came away from that game looking

454
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:19,440
Speaker 1: at Dallas and thinking if that, if that's the level

455
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,440
Speaker 1: of football. Dak's gonna play down the stretch with those

456
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,879
Speaker 1: two wide receivers and they still can run it, and

457
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:29,160
Speaker 1: the defense since they added Quentin Williams, it's gotten better

458
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 1: up front. The record would not suggest they're a threat

459
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 1: in the NFC, but I think they put their name

460
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:36,480
Speaker 1: in the hat for one of the teams maybe to

461
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 1: beat as we go down.

462
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:38,160
Speaker 3: The stretch here.

463
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think it's the craziest thing that this

464
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,159
Speaker 2: team could end up making the playoffs. I mean, I

465
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:48,040
Speaker 2: think five and one, you're I mean, you're you're close.

466
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,639
Speaker 2: I mean, where are you right now? You are ninth,

467
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 2: So yeah, you're still behind the Lions. You're you're still

468
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,119
Speaker 2: behind you know, the two NFC West teams that are

469
00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 2: going to probably end up making the playoffs as wild cards.

470
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:05,600
Speaker 2: And then green Bay where that that's the one that

471
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 2: hurts you the most is that you tied that game.

472
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 2: If they had won that game, all of a sudden,

473
00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 2: you're sitting at seven and five, You're within a game

474
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:14,640
Speaker 2: of Green Bay.

475
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:15,399
Speaker 3: You're right there.

476
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:19,119
Speaker 2: I think that the way that they're playing right now,

477
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,879
Speaker 2: you would think that they have a really good chance

478
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,399
Speaker 2: down the stretch of the season to be able to

479
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,399
Speaker 2: make the playoffs. But I just don't know if the

480
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,639
Speaker 2: picture itself is going to sort itself out that way.

481
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 2: But as you mentioned, I mean, the way that that

482
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:35,960
Speaker 2: offense is playing is. I mean, it's amazing right now.

483
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 2: Dak looks like an MVP type of player. I don't

484
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,359
Speaker 2: know if because of the team's record, if he's gonna

485
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:45,480
Speaker 2: necessarily be in that conversation, but I mean, the two

486
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 2: wide receivers are playing amazing football, and George Pickens is

487
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,639
Speaker 2: going to get a huge contract based off of what

488
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 2: he's doing. He's already come out and said he's looking

489
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 2: for a big contract, and I think there will be

490
00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,639
Speaker 2: a lot of teams that will be in on that

491
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:02,160
Speaker 2: con track because he looks like he's capable of being

492
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:05,399
Speaker 2: a number one receiver. Javonte Williams having a really good

493
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 2: year running back as well, continues to be steady for them,

494
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,440
Speaker 2: so their offense is producing at an incredibly high rate.

495
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 2: And then defensively, You're right, dude, we did not think

496
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 2: that Quinn Williams would mean this much for them, but

497
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:23,160
Speaker 2: he really has, and this team is much better defensively,

498
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 2: and now, I mean, yeah, they're rounding into form. At

499
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,960
Speaker 2: the same time, you do have to look at Kansas

500
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 2: City and say, what is what is wrong with Kansas City?

501
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,240
Speaker 2: Because they're you know, these are the types of games

502
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:40,919
Speaker 2: where Spagnolo's defenses would usually step up and find ways

503
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:45,080
Speaker 2: to slow down even the most dynamic of offenses, and

504
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 2: it just hasn't happened this year. And now, I mean

505
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 2: you're looking at their schedule the remainder of the season.

506
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's not easy.

507
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:57,679
Speaker 2: I will say, would it shock me that if they

508
00:23:57,760 --> 00:23:58,960
Speaker 2: won every single game?

509
00:23:59,080 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 3: It would not shock me?

510
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 2: Like I think the game against the Texans very winnable.

511
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,479
Speaker 2: The Chargers, I don't know what the Chargers are. They

512
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 2: are one of the weirdest teams to try to figure

513
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 2: out right now this season. The Titans, they should win

514
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 2: that game easily. The Broncos, that one's definitely a tough game,

515
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,680
Speaker 2: but that game's at home, and then on the road

516
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 2: at the Raiders. You're telling me that that team can't

517
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,080
Speaker 2: reel off five in a row. I mean, the way

518
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:30,360
Speaker 2: they're playing right now, maybe not. But I do think

519
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 2: there's a scenario where they do reel off five in

520
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 2: a row and they do end up backing their way

521
00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 2: into the playoffs. But I guess that's just the thinking

522
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:41,159
Speaker 2: that it is Kansas City, and it's more based on

523
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 2: what they've done in recent years than what they're doing

524
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 2: this year.

525
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, the simple fact of what's wrong with Kansas City?

526
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:51,119
Speaker 1: They're old, yep, they and like Chris Jones isn't the

527
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 1: same Chris Jones, And we all know how important he

528
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 1: is to to that defense.

529
00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:58,920
Speaker 3: Like he he's.

530
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:01,080
Speaker 1: Kind of like how important Aaron Donald was when he

531
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,399
Speaker 1: was playing defensive line for the Rams. Like when he

532
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:06,880
Speaker 1: plays at a high level, that defense is as as

533
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 1: good as anyone in football. When you negate him, they're

534
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 1: back seveny Even though you know McDuffie's been a really

535
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,960
Speaker 1: good corner this year, there's there's plays to be had,

536
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 1: and that's definitely what happened yesterday where they just got

537
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,440
Speaker 1: feasted on. They had no they had no answer for Lamb,

538
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 1: they had no answer for Pickens, and and Dak was

539
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: after that interception. Was was playing at a at a

540
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,400
Speaker 1: really high level, so they haven't been able to rush

541
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:30,920
Speaker 1: the quarterback.

542
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:32,639
Speaker 4: Was that a Thanksgiving pun? By the way, saying that

543
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:33,439
Speaker 4: they got feasted on?

544
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 3: It was just great?

545
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 4: That was nice though, But I did want to say

546
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,640
Speaker 4: thank goodness, you know. I it's rare that I root

547
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 4: for the Cowboys to win, so happy they beat the Chiefs.

548
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,040
Speaker 4: I really hope the Chiefs missed the playoffs. I'm tired

549
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:47,040
Speaker 4: of seeing the dynasty.

550
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 3: So you don't like watching greatness.

551
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 4: Uh, I like you for uh for a short period

552
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:54,640
Speaker 4: of time, once it's over extended.

553
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:56,760
Speaker 3: That's why everyone hated Tom Brady and the Patriots, So

554
00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 3: you would have been the guy here they had more

555
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,720
Speaker 3: hateable guy. Yes, but also I'm I'm a guy.

556
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 4: I love the root for underdogs, no matter what sport

557
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:08,200
Speaker 4: it is, unless you know, if they're not playing my team,

558
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:10,199
Speaker 4: I like the root for the underdogs. That's just how

559
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,880
Speaker 4: it is. So yeah, I always like when an upset happens,

560
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 4: and yeah, I like whenever the big dog gets defeated.

561
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 4: So but you know, looking at the Cowboys, you know

562
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:22,480
Speaker 4: flynders pointing out their offense. Their offense has been good

563
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:26,360
Speaker 4: all season. Yeah they yeah, I mean it. But it's

564
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:28,800
Speaker 4: the defense that is taking a massive step that's helping

565
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:29,160
Speaker 4: them win.

566
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 3: And it has been a guy like Quinn Williams.

567
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:32,439
Speaker 4: I don't know how you guys could think you take

568
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,280
Speaker 4: a guy like Quinn Williams and Adam to that defense

569
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 4: and it doesn't help significantly. He's been a massive part

570
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 4: of improving that defense, and I think it's it's all

571
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:43,639
Speaker 4: on the defense to continue the way that they're playing

572
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,800
Speaker 4: to determine, you know, if the Cowboys make the playoffs

573
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 4: and have a really good final stretch here the remainder

574
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 4: of the season. And you know, I listen, I'm not

575
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,720
Speaker 4: I'm not a big fan of the Cowboys. Rather, you know,

576
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 4: kind of hate them for the most part, mainly because

577
00:26:56,520 --> 00:27:00,119
Speaker 4: their fans are annoying. But the NFL playoffs are or

578
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 4: better whenever the Cowboys are involved, especially whenever they get

579
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:07,199
Speaker 4: smoked in the wild card round anyway. So yeah, so

580
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 4: I think the defense and how much they've improved in

581
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:12,680
Speaker 4: a short period of time has been what's been real

582
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 4: surprising for the Cowboys. And you know, also now we've

583
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:19,520
Speaker 4: the as Panthers fans, you've been able to look at

584
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 4: the Chiefs and have the same record as them for

585
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 4: pretty much the entirety of the year.

586
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,200
Speaker 3: Now you can jump to the late game from last

587
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:25,640
Speaker 3: night too.

588
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,199
Speaker 4: If you told Panthers fans after week twelve, they'd have

589
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,400
Speaker 4: the same record as the Chiefs and the Ravens, I.

590
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:31,159
Speaker 3: Think they take that.

591
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's probably a sign to quit over freaking

592
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 1: reacting when they lose football games.

593
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:37,840
Speaker 3: Well, and we'll lets to fire the head coach.

594
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:43,199
Speaker 4: Hold On The thing is, though, is that whenever they lose,

595
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,240
Speaker 4: they lose ugly like that.

596
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:46,960
Speaker 3: That's the problem.

597
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,600
Speaker 4: I think if if they lost competitive games to where

598
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:52,680
Speaker 4: they looked good, the offense looked good, defense looked good,

599
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,360
Speaker 4: they just came up a you know, one drive short,

600
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:57,760
Speaker 4: I think people don't overreact as much.

601
00:27:57,800 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 3: It's this whenever you lose.

602
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 4: Look at the past two long to San fran and

603
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 4: the and the Saints. They have been ugly to where

604
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 4: your offense has regressed so much in week to week,

605
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 4: And I think that's where fans overreact. It's because how

606
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,480
Speaker 4: do you go from throwing four hundred and fifty yards

607
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,920
Speaker 4: to having twenty eight passing yards at halftime? Like That's

608
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 4: I think where the overreaction quote unquote comes in because

609
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 4: they're so vastly different.

610
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:24,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Panthers are the best example. Look, this is

611
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,440
Speaker 1: a week to week league. The Panthers are a week

612
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,679
Speaker 1: to week team because they are a young team and

613
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 1: year two of a rebuild that they're still learning, they're

614
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,200
Speaker 1: still learning how to win, and they're still learning how

615
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 1: to handle prosperity.

616
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:39,960
Speaker 3: But because this fan base has.

617
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:44,280
Speaker 1: Been through hell since you know, twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen.

618
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 1: There's no room to enjoy the highs as much as

619
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 1: the season has given us. We focus more on the

620
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 1: lowst well touch really quickly on the nightcap, and then

621
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 1: we'll get us a panther talk. Joe Burrow comes back,

622
00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow has two touchdowns. Joe Borough throws the ball,

623
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 1: it was well over forty times. Joe Burrow beats Baltimore

624
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 1: and the Ravens and the Bengals are sitting here at

625
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:12,480
Speaker 1: at four and eight, and you're talking about, you know,

626
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 1: some blown games in there where they should have beaten

627
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:17,880
Speaker 1: the Jets, and some other games got away with them

628
00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 1: because they had the worst defense in football.

629
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 3: The Bears.

630
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 1: The Bears, they are two games out of first place,

631
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 1: with maybe now that he's back from injury, the best

632
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,400
Speaker 1: and most healthy quarterback in the division. And it's it's

633
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 1: it's why I don't think they panicked. I think that's

634
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:36,000
Speaker 1: why they went and got Joe Flacco was because I

635
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 1: think they knew when they were gonna get Burrow back,

636
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 1: if they could just be in the conversation that Brown Thanksgiving,

637
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 1: this guy was going to give him a chance. And

638
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 1: I mean, did you see how empty that stadium was?

639
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,239
Speaker 1: In the middle of the fourth quarter. Yeh, I mean

640
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,560
Speaker 1: they just left the game. Even technically over hell, the

641
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 1: Bengals fumbled it when they were trying to put the

642
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,680
Speaker 1: game away, but Baltimore fans at audios, we're leaving.

643
00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 3: Also. That was a tough look for Baltimore, man.

644
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:01,960
Speaker 2: I mean, there's still a team that has a chance

645
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,040
Speaker 2: to win this division and they're fans bailing out on

646
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 2: the game in the middle of the fourth quarter. I mean, look,

647
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:11,840
Speaker 2: I get it. The Ravens have not been playing great.

648
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,200
Speaker 2: I they had because they had won to like five

649
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:16,760
Speaker 2: in a row. But the thing is is that Lamar

650
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:21,000
Speaker 2: Jackson hadn't been playing great. And I think that's what's

651
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,280
Speaker 2: amazing was that they had found a way to win

652
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 2: with Lamar Jackson not playing well. I mean the last

653
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,080
Speaker 2: two games, he didn't have a touchdown. Last night, I

654
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:31,520
Speaker 2: don't believe he had a touchdown in the game. So

655
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:34,680
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, now you're looking at it and you're

656
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:38,840
Speaker 2: saying if you're I don't know if you're crazy for

657
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 2: thinking this. I mean, I'm looking at the path for

658
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:48,080
Speaker 2: the Bengals. I think this weekend really determines if they win.

659
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,640
Speaker 2: I think there's a path for them to go on

660
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,080
Speaker 2: a run here at the end of the season and

661
00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,520
Speaker 2: potentially win that division. Now, I think they'd have to

662
00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:00,320
Speaker 2: go nine to eight, and so that means they can't

663
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:01,960
Speaker 2: lose the game the rest of the year. But it's

664
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 2: at the Bills, home to the Ravens, at the Dolphins,

665
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,920
Speaker 2: Cardinals at home, and then Browns at home. I mean,

666
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 2: all those final three games they should they should be wins.

667
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,080
Speaker 2: I would believe that with Joe Burrow in there. I

668
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,400
Speaker 2: think the next two games are the ones that really

669
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 2: determine it. And it's not the craziest thing to think

670
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 2: in that division, which has just been i mean just

671
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 2: mediocre football the entire year, I think it's more than

672
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 2: possible that they actually end up making it to the playoffs,

673
00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 2: which is crazy to think because three and eight on

674
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 2: Thanksgiving usually means you are done. And yet they are

675
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 2: still somehow. Two games back in the division.

676
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 1: Pens were three to eight to one, and then they

677
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:46,080
Speaker 1: won four in a row, got a home playoff game,

678
00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 1: won a home playoff game.

679
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 3: That's the fifteen to one season.

680
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 1: I think what's really interesting when you look at that division,

681
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 1: because the division it's not bad, you just expect more

682
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 1: because of the high profile coaches and quarterbacks that are in.

683
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 3: There, well the injuries or are why you are where

684
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 3: you're at.

685
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 1: It does feel like this could be the year where

686
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 1: we get the AFC North like makeover home edition. Like

687
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:11,479
Speaker 1: I think this is the year where maybe Pittsburgh decides

688
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:14,680
Speaker 1: to move on from Mike Tomlin. Maybe Baltimore because you

689
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 1: can argue they've underachieved under Harball with Lamar Jackson. And

690
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:20,280
Speaker 1: then I don't know what the Bengals are gonna do

691
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 1: with with Zach Taylor, but there's a real good shot

692
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:25,800
Speaker 1: where maybe and then Stefanski, I think he's got to

693
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,960
Speaker 1: be done in Cleveland. Like there's a scenario depending on

694
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 1: how this all plays out and what these teams do

695
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:33,160
Speaker 1: at the end of the regular season, then once we

696
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 1: get into January, you could have a whole new slate

697
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,040
Speaker 1: of head coaches in that division next year.

698
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:40,120
Speaker 3: And I don't think that's crazy talk.

699
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, and one of them could hire Mike Tomlins, so

700
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:44,959
Speaker 2: it could be a guy that goes into Vision and

701
00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:48,160
Speaker 2: still stays with, you know, one of those teams. I

702
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:51,920
Speaker 2: think that's crazy. Yeah, it's It's not the wildest thing, man, Stefanski,

703
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 2: I know it's pretty much, you know, he's a dead

704
00:32:56,120 --> 00:33:00,120
Speaker 2: man walking at this point there. Zach Taylor, Dak Taylor's

705
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:03,920
Speaker 2: really interesting to me because, yes, the injuries are a

706
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 2: big part of where he's at. His defenses have just

707
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 2: been pathetically bad.

708
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:10,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, worst defense in football this year.

709
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:13,120
Speaker 2: Now, I think part of that is that they don't

710
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 2: want to pay anybody on that side of the ball,

711
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 2: So I think that's definitely that's definitely a factor. But

712
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,040
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, it's every year they're putting up one

713
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 2: of the worst defensive defenses in the entire league, and

714
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 2: that's why they can't get back to where they were

715
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:33,640
Speaker 2: when they made the Super Bowl is because of that defense.

716
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 3: And then yeah, I mean the Ravens.

717
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I wouldn't be shocked if they end up moving

718
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 2: on from John Harbaugh. I think there could be people

719
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 2: that get frustrated enough. I mean that display last night

720
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 2: that shows you that there is clearly a lot of frustration.

721
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,880
Speaker 2: So I mean, yeah, it could be a complete makeover because, yeah,

722
00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 2: Mike Tomlin, we know Pittsburgh fans have wanted him out

723
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 2: for a long time. And if they fail to make

724
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 2: the playoffs again this year, which I think is more

725
00:33:57,920 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 2: than possible, then.

726
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 1: That could give you the Jonathan from Gastonia writes, and

727
00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:03,160
Speaker 1: you know we were gonna get this one.

728
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 3: Can we hire Mike Tomlin? Yeah?

729
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,880
Speaker 1: I mean, look, I don't think Dave Canalis is in

730
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 1: any danger of losing his job. With that being said,

731
00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:14,080
Speaker 1: you never know with the way this league operates, and

732
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:15,960
Speaker 1: you never know when your owner might show up and

733
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 1: do the things he's done in the past, which is

734
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:20,719
Speaker 1: stick his nose in football decisions. The interesting thing with

735
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 1: Taylor in Kansas City is your four years have moved

736
00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 1: away from the Super Bowl, three years were moved away

737
00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 1: from your last appearance in the AFC Championship Game. How

738
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:31,840
Speaker 1: much leeway do you get because of all the injuries

739
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 1: Taylor in Cincinnati. You said Kansas City. I said Cincinnati.

740
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:39,360
Speaker 1: Most definitely said Cincinnati. It's gonna be interesting to see

741
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 1: what does that buy him time or do they decide

742
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:46,560
Speaker 1: to move on because you've got went healthy. I think

743
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:49,959
Speaker 1: a top five quarterback in the National Football League seven

744
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:52,279
Speaker 1: oh four and five ninety six to ten. We want

745
00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 1: to hear from you on the fans, will text line

746
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 1: when we come back, will turn our attention to the

747
00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:00,239
Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers. We may have been off yesterday, but the

748
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:02,080
Speaker 1: team was not. We'll go for some news and notes

749
00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:04,479
Speaker 1: ahead of this week's game against the Rams. You're listening

750
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:17,239
Speaker 1: to Sports Radio ninety two seven wfn Z. All right,

751
00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 1: two things we have to address. Welcome back to the

752
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 1: young guns. You're listening to Sports Radio ninety two seven

753
00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 1: wfn Z. I may or may not have said Kansas

754
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,000
Speaker 1: City when I was talking about Zach Taylor.

755
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,560
Speaker 3: Oh what to? What changed your mind? You know, we've

756
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:35,879
Speaker 3: we've done this a couple of times. Goff is legit ude, dude.

757
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 1: The scoff is probably like Kevin's Chile from the office.

758
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,839
Speaker 1: It's probably the thing I do best because Mac never

759
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:46,240
Speaker 1: knows if I'm literally scoffing or hitting my scoff sound effects.

760
00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,720
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it's consistent. Yeah, it's consistent.

761
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 1: But Flounder just loves to do this thing where he

762
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:52,239
Speaker 1: just likes to call off people's mistakes.

763
00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:54,759
Speaker 3: I'm not that kind of guy. I was gonna let

764
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 3: it go, but I knew people would get on that.

765
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,520
Speaker 3: Did you really just say you're not that kind of guy? Dude? Okay,

766
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:01,839
Speaker 3: look at the guys I work with that mess up.

767
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,440
Speaker 1: Mac usually messes up the first sentence he talks in

768
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:07,279
Speaker 1: the morning, and I just sit there and just let

769
00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:07,800
Speaker 1: it happen.

770
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:08,400
Speaker 3: Okay.

771
00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 1: So I'm not one to call to attention when other

772
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:14,560
Speaker 1: people mess up unless they're Willie p oh my, my

773
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:19,440
Speaker 1: the Robin to my Batman, my best friend of fifteen.

774
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:26,440
Speaker 2: So you think you're Batman? Oh, I definitely have Batman energy. Okay.

775
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:29,280
Speaker 2: I was about to ask you a real dark question,

776
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 2: but I wasn't going to ask you that. But the

777
00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:35,520
Speaker 2: second I mess up, now I'm interested in it. Is

778
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:37,239
Speaker 2: this one that's getting us kicked off the air.

779
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:38,919
Speaker 1: No, I was just gonna ask you. Were you leaving

780
00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 1: a play and your parents got shot? Like, I mean,

781
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:42,240
Speaker 1: that's Batman energy.

782
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:43,520
Speaker 3: Gosh, that's good.

783
00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:46,239
Speaker 2: You said you have Batman energy. I got the questions.

784
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:48,840
Speaker 2: You don't have Batman energy either. Both of your parents

785
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:54,240
Speaker 2: are still living, yes, but they were divorced and that's

786
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 2: Oh that took a real toll on you.

787
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 3: Yeah. Oh, okay, I am the.

788
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,880
Speaker 1: Way that I am because mom and daddy, when I

789
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:03,520
Speaker 1: was three years old, wanting to play with my woody doll,

790
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:05,320
Speaker 1: did not want to quit arguing.

791
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 3: All right, let's move on. Yeah, let's all right. Make

792
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:13,600
Speaker 3: a joke. That's what Jordan Hudson plays with Friday. What else?

793
00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:15,760
Speaker 3: What else were you gonna You said you had two things.

794
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:16,840
Speaker 3: First thing was that.

795
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:21,000
Speaker 1: Shrop comes out and grabs the remote and he's like,

796
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:26,240
Speaker 1: what channels ESP and you on? And we figured out pressure.

797
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 1: I figure out what channel it is, and I asked

798
00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:29,560
Speaker 1: him on what are you putting on the television?

799
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:30,920
Speaker 3: Don't you worry about it?

800
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:37,359
Speaker 1: And I look up and we are watching Formula one

801
00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:39,840
Speaker 1: practice practice.

802
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 4: Ye.

803
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 2: The fact that it's on espn U, I think tells

804
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:43,560
Speaker 2: you everything that you need to.

805
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:43,839
Speaker 4: Now.

806
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,840
Speaker 1: Look, man, qualifying, I'm dude, when it's the summertime and

807
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:49,440
Speaker 1: they were at bleeped to watch, I'll watch, I'll watch

808
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:54,279
Speaker 1: them NASCAR qualifying. Yeah, but Formula one qualifying, dude, truck

809
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:56,880
Speaker 1: Wait is it even qualifying or is it just practice?

810
00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,360
Speaker 4: This is practice? Is practice one? They have three practice

811
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:02,919
Speaker 4: sessions and they do the qualifying and then oh my gosh. Yeah,

812
00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:06,240
Speaker 4: so we're watching practice right now. They're in Qatar. Uh,

813
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:09,440
Speaker 4: you know this year the season's coming to a close, gentlemen,

814
00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:11,560
Speaker 4: and Max for staff and he's on a hell of

815
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:16,480
Speaker 4: a run, shocking both both the McLaren drivers. McLaren already

816
00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:19,919
Speaker 4: won the Constructors Championship, but their two drivers are running

817
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:23,200
Speaker 4: away with the driver's standings as well. But McLaren's been

818
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:25,480
Speaker 4: choking and Max for staff but is now tied for

819
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:28,920
Speaker 4: second and he has it has a chance to uh

820
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:31,880
Speaker 4: to make one of the biggest comebacks in Formula One

821
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:34,440
Speaker 4: Championship history to become the champion.

822
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:37,799
Speaker 3: So is it over? Also decisions shruped. Look, you've got

823
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,400
Speaker 3: to So what else is on? At eight forty in

824
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:40,840
Speaker 3: the morning.

825
00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:43,120
Speaker 1: I gave you a ten forty five segment because I

826
00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 1: figured by then i'd be ready to go to the

827
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:46,719
Speaker 1: bathroom for you to talk hockey.

828
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:48,440
Speaker 3: For a minut Yeah, I may have.

829
00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:52,400
Speaker 1: To revoke that because now we're sitting here talking Formula

830
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:55,240
Speaker 1: one practice. I did not wake up at six o'clock

831
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:58,239
Speaker 1: in the morning willingly to come in here and talk

832
00:38:58,239 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 1: about Formula one.

833
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:01,360
Speaker 3: Be better the other one that brought it up. Gosh,

834
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:02,879
Speaker 3: we're talking. Can we talk pants?

835
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:05,360
Speaker 4: You're not even fasing the TV. You don't even see it.

836
00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 4: It's but I know that it's there. Just this presence

837
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:11,160
Speaker 4: is just weighing on you, I understand. So, yeah, we

838
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,880
Speaker 4: were off yesterday. The rest of the football world was not.

839
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 4: Obviously had three games.

840
00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:18,319
Speaker 1: But the Panthers were back at practice getting ready for

841
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 1: Sunday's game against the Rams, which everyone is pretty much

842
00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:24,200
Speaker 1: conceded is going to be a loss, which means coming

843
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:27,120
Speaker 1: out of Sunday, the Panthers will be six seven and

844
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:30,479
Speaker 1: going into the bye week. But some news and notes

845
00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:33,240
Speaker 1: since we were last on the air. You know, Trevon

846
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,800
Speaker 1: Merrick suspension was upheld, so you know, he did appeal

847
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 1: as it should be to be honest with he did

848
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:42,399
Speaker 1: appeal it, but it was upheld. So the Panthers will

849
00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:46,200
Speaker 1: be with out there starting safety on Sunday. Trevin Wallace

850
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:49,480
Speaker 1: back at practice for a second straight day, full participant,

851
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:53,680
Speaker 1: but still no Christian Rose, Boom, Cade Mays, J C. Horn,

852
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 1: Chandler Savalla. We're called in cher lest they all missed practice.

853
00:39:57,719 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 1: Today is going to be a big day to figure

854
00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 1: out kind of where those guys stand going into Sunday.

855
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:06,240
Speaker 1: And I think that's probably the double down effect why

856
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:10,960
Speaker 1: everyone's so down going into this game. It's yes, your

857
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:15,080
Speaker 1: offense looked like ass on Monday night football. You know,

858
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:18,799
Speaker 1: Bryce showing was not good. Dave Canalis did not want

859
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,400
Speaker 1: to run the football, God knows why. But then you

860
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:25,040
Speaker 1: just add the injuries and then not having merrig It

861
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:27,840
Speaker 1: finds it. It does open the door for this to

862
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 1: be blowout brigade for the Rams when they visit Charlotte

863
00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:32,040
Speaker 1: on Sunday afternoon.

864
00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:33,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's possible.

865
00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:35,799
Speaker 2: I think the thing that you would hang your hat

866
00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:37,759
Speaker 2: on if you're the Panthers is that whenever they have

867
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 2: suffered a tough loss, they have been able to bounce

868
00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:43,200
Speaker 2: back from it. But you are dealing with so many

869
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:45,360
Speaker 2: injuries that I just don't know if you're going to

870
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:47,000
Speaker 2: be able to navigate it. I mean, you're going to

871
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:50,359
Speaker 2: be without your two best secondary players more than likely.

872
00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:53,440
Speaker 2: I don't see any way that j. C. Horn is

873
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:56,960
Speaker 2: going to clear concussion protocol, especially with the symptoms that

874
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,760
Speaker 2: he had on the sideline, that seems like that's pretty

875
00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:03,000
Speaker 2: seat that's probably gonna take some time. So without him

876
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:07,160
Speaker 2: on the field, you know you're not gonna have Corey Thornton.

877
00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:10,680
Speaker 2: We already know that he's out. Yeah, So I mean, yeah,

878
00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:15,920
Speaker 2: it's Mike, It's Mike Jackson, and I guess it's gonna

879
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:19,160
Speaker 2: be Shaw Smith Wade and Lathan Ransom that's probably gonna

880
00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:22,239
Speaker 2: be playing on the outside. Leathan Ransom could potentially play

881
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:24,120
Speaker 2: in the nickel. I mean, we've heard some names that

882
00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:26,919
Speaker 2: we really were hoping we would never have to hear

883
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:30,560
Speaker 2: again during this season, and guys like a Caleb Evans

884
00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 2: and stuff like that. Those are names that you're hoping

885
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:35,960
Speaker 2: that you wouldn't have to hear. But I mean, yeah,

886
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:40,080
Speaker 2: that's the scariest part is this secondary is going to

887
00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:44,280
Speaker 2: be so beat up going up against a Rams wide

888
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:47,239
Speaker 2: receiver group that is as good as just about any

889
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:49,800
Speaker 2: in the league, and you've got a quarterback that's spinning

890
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:52,520
Speaker 2: it as well as anybody that that's gonna be a

891
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:54,960
Speaker 2: really tough matchup for the Panthers in this one, no doubt.

892
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,239
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, that's the biggest thing is that, you know,

893
00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:59,840
Speaker 4: contrary to last year, you've had a defense this season

894
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:02,520
Speaker 4: that's kept you in games throughout the entire season.

895
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:04,160
Speaker 3: You know, they did it last week against the forty

896
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:04,600
Speaker 3: nine ers.

897
00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:06,800
Speaker 4: They gave the offense a chance to go out and

898
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:09,840
Speaker 4: win that game and it just didn't just didn't happen.

899
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:12,880
Speaker 4: So going into this game against the Rams, when you

900
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:16,520
Speaker 4: need your defense to be the healthiest and at its

901
00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:18,439
Speaker 4: best is going to be the entire year, you're down

902
00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:22,280
Speaker 4: significant pieces. This was already going to be a probably

903
00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:25,239
Speaker 4: one of the toughest, if not the toughest games on

904
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:28,359
Speaker 4: the schedule, And now you're sitting here with a very

905
00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:31,360
Speaker 4: very depleted defense and a lot is going to be

906
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,359
Speaker 4: riding the shoulders of the offense to be able to

907
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:36,960
Speaker 4: play keep up ball, and I just don't know if

908
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,920
Speaker 4: they have the firepower to really get that going, especially

909
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:41,320
Speaker 4: against a Rams defense.

910
00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:42,279
Speaker 3: It's really good as well.

911
00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll put together are our paths to victory a

912
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:47,600
Speaker 1: little bit later on in the show.

913
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:49,399
Speaker 3: But I mean, I think this is a game.

914
00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:53,759
Speaker 1: If Carolina covers, I think I think Panther fans would

915
00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:58,120
Speaker 1: be really really impressed. And I guess satisfied. That's the

916
00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:02,160
Speaker 1: line ten those ten points there's not and this is

917
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 1: there's no way there.

918
00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:06,040
Speaker 3: This is the downside. Like I think this team just

919
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:06,759
Speaker 3: needs a bye week.

920
00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:10,160
Speaker 2: Man, Yeah, I think they need to said that last smoke,

921
00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:11,120
Speaker 2: said that last week.

922
00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:12,759
Speaker 3: That was a big part of the reason why they're

923
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:13,360
Speaker 3: so banged up.

924
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:15,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, like they really needed the bye week this week.

925
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,560
Speaker 4: Like if you could, you know, having a week what

926
00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:19,640
Speaker 4: fourteen bye.

927
00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:21,600
Speaker 3: Week Lakers as as you can get.

928
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:24,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's tough. This team could really obviously with all

929
00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:26,200
Speaker 4: the injuries. It's obvious to say it, but they could

930
00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:28,799
Speaker 4: really use it this week, plus the extra preparation for

931
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:32,799
Speaker 4: the Rams and coming off a primetime game on Monday night,

932
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:35,160
Speaker 4: this would have been the perfect week to have a

933
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:38,360
Speaker 4: bye week, but just the NFL gods did not shine

934
00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:41,239
Speaker 4: brightly upon the Panthers. When when you know giving out

935
00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:42,680
Speaker 4: the bye weeks.

936
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:44,360
Speaker 3: Here Fangel text line is open.

937
00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:47,239
Speaker 1: Panther Boat writes in a six seven jokes, someone get

938
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:50,919
Speaker 1: a mike, My god, is this gonna be the week

939
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:53,080
Speaker 1: that six seven dies in the Charlotte area if the

940
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:54,960
Speaker 1: Panthers lose, because it's.

941
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:57,160
Speaker 3: Already Foliants are doing a six to seven night.

942
00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:01,040
Speaker 1: I heard that, Yeah, when when Mac and Bone had

943
00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:03,240
Speaker 1: I forget what the guy's name was up from the Hornets,

944
00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 1: but they're having a six to seven night. I just

945
00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:08,239
Speaker 1: feel like, if this team loses and we have to

946
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:11,280
Speaker 1: say six seven for it and it'll be two weeks

947
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:14,160
Speaker 1: because IPEC they's have a bye week, I think this

948
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,439
Speaker 1: will be the end that you know of six seven

949
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:17,959
Speaker 1: and it's had a good run.

950
00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:18,239
Speaker 2: Man.

951
00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 1: I don't think for to one ever caught on the

952
00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:23,000
Speaker 1: way that the kids were hoping it would. I was

953
00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:25,080
Speaker 1: really here for it because how much an annoyed bone.

954
00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:27,200
Speaker 1: But I feel like shrup, you're the youngest of the

955
00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:29,520
Speaker 1: of the group here. Yeah, I feel like six seven

956
00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:30,680
Speaker 1: and it's on his last leg.

957
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:31,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

958
00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:33,520
Speaker 4: You know, whenever we were growing up, memes used to

959
00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:36,920
Speaker 4: last couple of months, maybe a month fully, and now

960
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:38,680
Speaker 4: it's kind of like the uh, you know, the way

961
00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:42,439
Speaker 4: the internet churns things out. It's it's surprising that six

962
00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:45,520
Speaker 4: heaven those lasted as long as it has. But it

963
00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:47,800
Speaker 4: does feel like it's starting to be on that decline

964
00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:51,719
Speaker 4: to where once you get the the older folk and

965
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:55,360
Speaker 4: like really young kids start doing it, that's whatever becomes uncool.

966
00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:57,840
Speaker 4: So I feel like we have reached that plateau and

967
00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:00,880
Speaker 4: things are now going downhill for the old legendary six.

968
00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:04,200
Speaker 1: Uh Flounder, Have you made a six seven reference at

969
00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:04,839
Speaker 1: all to your dad?

970
00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:08,359
Speaker 2: No? No, no, he would have absolutely no clue what

971
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:11,160
Speaker 2: it meant. He would also think that again, like I did,

972
00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:14,800
Speaker 2: the hand motions were meant something dirty, probably.

973
00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:17,960
Speaker 1: Just because you know the members of the Floundino crime family,

974
00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:21,680
Speaker 1: they've got a knotty mind. Your sister's home for Thanksgiving.

975
00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:24,200
Speaker 1: She's a teacher or a teacher assistant.

976
00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:29,040
Speaker 2: Oh, very familiar with very very very very familiar the kids.

977
00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:30,879
Speaker 3: I asked her this question last night.

978
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:34,680
Speaker 2: The kids very into the six seven, which again she

979
00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:36,160
Speaker 2: teaches first graders.

980
00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:38,759
Speaker 3: That means that it's fading out. Yep, yep.

981
00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:42,480
Speaker 2: Und Also, it's here's the other way that you know

982
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:44,840
Speaker 2: that it's fading out. It's made its way to the

983
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:48,040
Speaker 2: sport of hockey. That's when you know that you're you're

984
00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:50,680
Speaker 2: really starting to fade out. When they're having six seven

985
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:54,120
Speaker 2: nights at hockey games. That that tells you, yeah, it's

986
00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:55,520
Speaker 2: on it's on its last leg.

987
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:57,640
Speaker 1: Oh, I got a well, I question is if we

988
00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:01,399
Speaker 1: can be this open and accepting of sick seven, what's

989
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:03,000
Speaker 1: standing in the way of six nine night?

990
00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:07,440
Speaker 4: All right, let's go why let's go to break? Just

991
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:12,239
Speaker 4: why not just go to break? I thought I'd get

992
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:14,560
Speaker 4: something out of you drop. Nope, I thought I thought

993
00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:16,799
Speaker 4: that would at least get a chuckle. No, because there

994
00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:19,120
Speaker 4: was so clear and obvious where you're going, And there's

995
00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:21,040
Speaker 4: a clear and obvious reason as to why that's not

996
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:22,920
Speaker 4: accepted as a as.

997
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:26,880
Speaker 2: A shameful way to end a good first hour of

998
00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:29,880
Speaker 2: the show. It was a fun first hour. It was

999
00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:32,799
Speaker 2: a fast moving first hour. Good news for you. We

1000
00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:35,759
Speaker 2: got three more hours to go. Here on Sports Radio
