Yeah, 21 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 2: if you're looking ahead of this weekend, if you're thinking, God, 22 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 2: I gotta get out somewhere to watch Bengals and Packers, 23 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 2: you could do it here at Twin Peaks in Westchester. 24 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 2: Before we do anything, it's time for Zach and he 25 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 2: contractually coplicate an airing of his Monday afternoon press conference. 26 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 3: Maybe we'll have some guys limited on Wednesday. But for 27 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 3: the most part, I feel like we came out of 28 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 3: it relatively. 29 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 4: J went out for a little bit, was he okay? 30 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, Angle came back and played so again, some guys 31 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 3: are gonna deal with some shortness this week and things 32 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:45,039 Speaker 3: like that, but nothing from this game that should prevent anybody. 33 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 5: From the next game. 34 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 6: As a shot to come back this week. 35 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 5: We'll see. Yeah, we'll see where that's at. 36 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 7: Right now, you go back and look at how Jake played, 37 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 7: will kind of shoot out the day after. 38 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 3: Well, we have to take care of the football. That's 39 00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 3: the number one thing is eliminating the turnovers. Given them 40 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 3: a short field for a defense. You know, our defense 41 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 3: the first start of the game gave up a touchdown 42 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 3: after starting on the minus forty one and then gave 43 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 3: a touchdown after starting on a plus nineteen. Those are 44 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 3: the fourteen points they gave up, and so we got 45 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 3: to give them better opportunities to be able to keep 46 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 3: points off the board because as those are two tough 47 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 3: field positions. That one started with a special team's era, 48 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 3: one started with an offensive error, and in order to 49 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,119 Speaker 3: play winning football, we've obviously got to score more points 50 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 3: on offense and keep our defense out of Hum's way 51 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 3: in terms of field position. And then and then they've 52 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 3: got to do a great job of creating some turnovers. 53 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 3: You know, they got the one, but we're going to 54 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 3: need one that you see Jake starting on Sunday, and 55 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 3: we'll see where it goes. You know, it's I think 56 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 3: I have all personnel decisions. We got to evaluate it. 57 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 3: Jake's been very accountable for how the game went for him. 58 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,359 Speaker 3: I've got to be accountable for how the game went 59 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,799 Speaker 3: for me as well. And so we will continue to 60 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 3: progress here through the days. 61 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 4: When would you want that to be finalized? Going for 62 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 4: a game? We when do you got when do you 63 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 4: need to have a guy? 64 00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 3: These are things that we talk about every single Monday Tuesday. 65 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 3: So we'll evaluate a lot of positions. 66 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 8: I stand on that process when you're evaluating players that 67 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 8: might not have played games recently, like some of the 68 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 8: guys that you have on the practice squad and right, like, 69 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 8: what's that process? 70 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 3: Like, Yeah, it's not always perfect, but we are always 71 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 3: paying attention to these guys on the practice squad, what 72 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,799 Speaker 3: the reps are getting. We do try to create some 73 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 3: opportunities to isolate them and let them kind of give 74 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 3: them a stage during practice to perform, which we've done 75 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,239 Speaker 3: over the years. And so again, we try to look 76 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 3: for assistant position coaches a lot of times to work 77 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 3: with those guys as well to try to elevate their 78 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 3: game so that it's we're making progress with them from 79 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 3: a development of standpoints, disease and goes on. So that's 80 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 3: a critical part of I hate to say the bottom 81 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 3: part of your roster, but it's those sixteen guys in 82 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 3: the practice squad. You're going to be counting on them 83 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 3: at some point and so we don't want them to 84 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 3: go by the wayside. We do pay a lot of 85 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 3: attention to that as they're running our scout teams. We 86 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 3: try our best to use our terminology so they can 87 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 3: picture that and they can apply it and we can 88 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 3: evaluate them as they reap some of the things that 89 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 3: we would rep So there's a lot of a lot 90 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 3: that goes into that and trying to make sure that 91 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 3: we can fully evaluate when this situation occurs where we 92 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 3: want to call somebody up that maybe we have acquired 93 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 3: from somewhere else that wasn't in our training camp or 94 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 3: off season program, you feel like you got information that 95 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,599 Speaker 3: could give you your best guess on how they're going to 96 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,239 Speaker 3: perform in very specific ways. 97 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:23,679 Speaker 5: Can you approve your play calling? 98 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 9: Is it opening the playbooks more? Is it we're finding 99 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 9: it more for Jake or whoever the quarterback. 100 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 3: I think finding more opportunities for our playmakers to get 101 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 3: the ball, you know, and finding ways to get them 102 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 3: easy touches that they can lead to productivity on our offense. 103 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 3: We haven't been productive enough. I don't worry about statistics 104 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 3: right now. I care about wins. That's that's all I 105 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 3: worry about. But at the same time, I know that 106 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 3: we've got to get more productivity, and that's more opportunity 107 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 3: from a lot of our key guys on offense to 108 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 3: be able to get the ball on the income and 109 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,919 Speaker 3: that's that's me finding the cleanest ways to get them 110 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 3: the ball so they can impact the game. 111 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 9: Thank you acknowledged in the past that you are very 112 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 9: reliant on explosive plays. A lot of teams in the 113 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 9: NFL are, but you specifically want to see a good 114 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 9: number of explosive plays. 115 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 5: When you're struggling so much. 116 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 9: Yeah, how much harder is it to find opportunity? 117 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 5: It's hard. 118 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 3: I mean we're trying to do everything we can, you know. 119 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,599 Speaker 3: And and so we called a flea flicker in the game. 120 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 3: That was almost a catastrophic play for us. And so 121 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 3: you're you're ready to do whatever it takes, and sometimes 122 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 3: it doesn't work out. Un fortunately scored it on the 123 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 3: next player or two plays later. But there's there's pros 124 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 3: and cons to the creativity sometimes that you apply to it. 125 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 3: It's just overall being better. You look at the field 126 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 3: position battle yesterday. That's that's all three phases take into account. 127 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 3: It was it was horrible in terms of how it 128 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 3: was tilted. You know, we had I think three possessions 129 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 3: starting inside our ten. They had three possessions that started 130 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 3: on our side of the field, you know, And so 131 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:53,480 Speaker 3: there's a lot of areas that we just weren't good 132 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 3: enough that to be a team that plays winning football. 133 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 5: Right now, we got to clean up some of that stuff. 134 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 4: Give me your comments yesterday. Did you want to add 135 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 4: were there any considerations about play call of duties? Is 136 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 4: that s something that you're going to retain. 137 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 5: I'm still going to retain that move. 138 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 4: Was that even a conversation that how much you think 139 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 4: about that at all? 140 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:08,839 Speaker 5: Exactly? 141 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 3: I've kind of always gotten into that. You know, I 142 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 3: rely on our guys on offense as well. There's a 143 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 3: ton of input there, and those guys do an outstanding 144 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 3: job adjusting as the game goes, giving me the information 145 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 3: I need. I rely on them as much as I 146 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 3: think any play card in the league replies on anybody else. 147 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 3: So I feel very comfortable. It's a fair question. We 148 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 3: score three points in three games in the first half. 149 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 3: I totally understand that. But right now, that's it's going 150 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 3: to remain the same. 151 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,840 Speaker 10: Could you let these quarterbacks all get kind of their 152 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 10: turn their chance on Wednesday and Thursday and practice and 153 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 10: see how that goes. 154 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 5: You have so few reps, it's just every rep is critical. 155 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 5: It might be. 156 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 3: I mean, if you get two reps on a play 157 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 3: during the course of the week of pass play. That's 158 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 3: that's quite a bit, you know, two full speed reps, 159 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 3: so it's difficult to balance quarter you're in on one 160 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 3: quarterback and you need to get a move on, and 161 00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 3: you gotta find a ways to evaluate the other guys 162 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 3: that are on the team in different ways, whether that's 163 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 3: on practice squad, whether that's in group install period. You 164 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 3: have to use every resource because it is very challenging 165 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 3: during the season to get multiple guys reps to evaluate 166 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 3: how they're going to look in your offense with your 167 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 3: receivers and the alignment and all that stuff. It's it's 168 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 3: just a real challenge. 169 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 5: After the game, Jamar said that it's difficult to move 170 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 5: the ball when the defenses know exactly what you guys 171 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 5: are trying to do. 172 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 9: Does it seem like this offense has become a little 173 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 9: too predictable? 174 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 5: I don't belise. 175 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 4: How how does Orlando look physically? 176 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 10: And we're seeing plays we're not used to seeing from Orlando. 177 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 4: What are you seeing there. 178 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 3: From some of the players you're probably seeing we're snap 179 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 3: count you know, we've there were some issues there yesterday 180 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 3: where here's a little a guy's getting a jump a 181 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 3: little later. So we have to work through that to 182 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 3: make sure we're getting everybody in advantage. And it's a 183 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 3: different reason for each one really. 184 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 5: To be truthful. 185 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 3: So I don't know if that's exactly what you're pinpointing there, 186 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 3: because that was that was a couple of them. 187 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 9: One of them player. 188 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 3: The forty flicker is a re engage play right where 189 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 3: your guy starts to let up because he thinks it's 190 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 3: run and then re engages and beat him around the edge. 191 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 5: So that's when we got to be better at. 192 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 4: Kind of trades that for a quarterback can run the 193 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 4: offense effectively. Right now, what are the trades that you 194 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 4: probably value the most and what you'll need right now? 195 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 5: I'm not that's not in my realhearsh right now, so 196 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 5: I'll ask some deals. Tends you a question. 197 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 10: A couple of weeks ago, I was talking about the 198 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 10: importance of improving third down defense. It feels like that's 199 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 10: adjustment that's being made positively. What do you like kind 200 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:34,719 Speaker 10: of about the improvements you've seen from the third down 201 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,559 Speaker 10: defense and the blitzes especially. 202 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought they did a great job, man, they 203 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 3: you know, for for denver to I mean Detroit to 204 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 3: walk away with three points something to carry. You know, 205 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 3: they're they're they're not a one dimensional football team. They 206 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:48,200 Speaker 3: can beat you a lot of different ways. And so 207 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,680 Speaker 3: I thought our our scheme did a great job with 208 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 3: our coaching staff led by Al and his crew to 209 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 3: create a plan that tried to minimize the run game 210 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 3: and put pressure on the pass game, which even still 211 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 3: with Jared and their skill players, it's a difficult task. 212 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 3: But I thought our guys in a back on the 213 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 3: back end did a great job. A lot of times 214 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,199 Speaker 3: we got five man fronts and so you're engaging five 215 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 3: in there, and that's why you see some of those 216 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 3: D linemen dropping because we've got five D linemen on 217 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,680 Speaker 3: the field. And so everyone did their part. It wasn't 218 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 3: always perfect. They got some plays there, but I thought 219 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 3: for the most part, they they did their best down 220 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 3: the field, matching routes and somebody underneath stuff is what 221 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,439 Speaker 3: got us. There were some mistackles there that got us 222 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 3: that if we can just get the guy on the ground, 223 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 3: we're in a position go to minimize a lot of 224 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 3: the explosive plays they had. It was more that it's 225 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 3: more underneath matching in the coverage and getting the guy 226 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 3: on the ground that led to. 227 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:35,439 Speaker 5: Some of the explosives. 228 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 3: And so again that area we can prove, but you 229 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,439 Speaker 3: do you're right point out the third down. I thought 230 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 3: we were much much improved on third down and that 231 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 3: was gonna be There's not many times that that Detroit 232 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 3: has lived in third and five plus over the course 233 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:49,439 Speaker 3: of the season. We were able to get them in 234 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 3: that position and you saw our defense make some plays there. 235 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 11: There's some You know, you have three guys behind Jake 236 00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 11: who have been here for a month. What are the 237 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 11: limiting factors in terms of what you can do in 238 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 11: terms of their knowledge of the system if you were 239 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 11: trying to use those how much do they know. 240 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 3: Compared to what trying to do everything we can to 241 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 3: help speed up the process for them, whether that's been 242 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 3: me meeting with them, pitch talking to them, Brad meeting 243 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 3: with them, some of our QCs meeting with them because 244 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 3: we're in game plan mode, so we have to spend 245 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 3: our time getting our team ready to go at the 246 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 3: same time getting a quarterback a lot of information. It's 247 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 3: not just hey, you're blocking this guy or you're running 248 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 3: this route. You need to know what everybody's running, what 249 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 3: all the protections are, what the run plays are, what 250 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 3: the checks are, what gain says we utilize. So there's 251 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 3: a lot there. So we've tried to be creative in 252 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 3: a lot of different ways to get those guys the 253 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 3: information to where they can accelerate their learning process as 254 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 3: fast as possible. 255 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 12: Is that part of the overall challenge of trying to 256 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 12: if you were to bring in somebody from the outside 257 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 12: at this pointment of the season you have no institutional 258 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 12: knowledge of just said, is that part of the problem. 259 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a challenge, and in time you bring in scout, 260 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 3: team player, anyway, anybody over of course of the season, 261 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 3: that's a challenge. 262 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 2: So you had that decision. 263 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 6: I might say. 264 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 5: That the Forna you have. 265 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 8: To chase in Smadre, but ended up with the same 266 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:22,079 Speaker 8: amount of rushing yards. 267 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 4: But it seemed like Smadi was able to. 268 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:27,439 Speaker 8: Give you a little bit more per carry. What's the 269 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 8: biggest difference you're sensing between those two when they. 270 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 5: Are running well, I think both of them. 271 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 3: Sometimes it's opportunity, you know, it's it's made the most 272 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 3: of two opportunities. One, we did a great job up 273 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 3: front creating a big lane that got on the safety 274 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 3: then got five additional yards, whether you want to call 275 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 3: it breaking a tackle or dragon a guy for five 276 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 3: more yards, so that that's a full head of steam. 277 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 5: Chase. 278 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 3: There was an opportunity there that we we didn't fully 279 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 3: take advantage of where he might have had that same opportunity, 280 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 3: you know, and and. 281 00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:58,560 Speaker 5: The play just went elsewhere. 282 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 3: But we got to find ways to maximize both of 283 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 3: their strengths and and find a way to get more 284 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 3: out of our run game opportunity from a play calling standpoint, 285 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 3: to get those guys the opportunity because there were some 286 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 3: positives there. I mean, it's it's not we're not at 287 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 3: the yards per carry we want. We're not at the 288 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 3: yards per game we want Russian game. A lot of 289 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,320 Speaker 3: that has to do with the score sometimes, but but 290 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 3: there's some opportunity there, and I gotta I gotta find 291 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 3: ways to lean into that and give those guys more opportunity. 292 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 4: What if you learned from watching Tomore kind of how 293 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 4: he's operated over these last couple of weeks as he's 294 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,439 Speaker 4: got to double adversity as a team. 295 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 3: Nothing that I've learned from him, just things that maybe 296 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 3: reconfirm what I thought about Jamarrow, and you know, I 297 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,559 Speaker 3: don't think I was aware of the interaction on the 298 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:47,319 Speaker 3: sideline what was being made of it. So I don't 299 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 3: pay much attention to that because I know where we 300 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 3: are and that's all I care about With me and him. 301 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,959 Speaker 3: People brought to my attention that it was conceived as 302 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 3: a it was perceived as a bad interaction, and that's. 303 00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 5: Just not the case with you and I. 304 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 3: And again it's I've said everything I need to say 305 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 3: about him. It's he's carrying us through some difficult things 306 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,839 Speaker 3: on offense right now. And for him to find two, 307 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 3: I mean, he ran a choice route out of the 308 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 3: backfield and scored a touchdown on the other side of 309 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 3: the field. So he became one in the progression and 310 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 3: then he became five in the progression. And he made 311 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,439 Speaker 3: it work, you know, and Jay gave him a great throw, 312 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 3: Amari used did a great job trying to finish his 313 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 3: block over there on the edge. That gave Jake an 314 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 3: extra second to get on the edge, and Jamar ends 315 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 3: up on a choice rut on the left and catches 316 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 3: a ball on a to tap on the right sideline, 317 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 3: works a double move that really Brad Craig Thorpe suggested 318 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 3: during the game with some of the coverages they were 319 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 3: giving us to work a double move and scored a 320 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 3: touchdown there and Jamar was able to We hadn't had 321 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 3: a rep of that all week, and Jamar is able 322 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:48,839 Speaker 3: to stick the guy and get wide open and tracking 323 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 3: over the shoulder touch for touchdowns. So some of the 324 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:52,960 Speaker 3: things that he's able to adjust to during the game, 325 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 3: understand what we're asking him to do on the move 326 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:59,679 Speaker 3: during a game. He can adapt to anything. And he's 327 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 3: a big reason why we're going to find some success 328 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 3: moving forward on offense and score some points just because 329 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 3: of Jamar's leadership. Well to that point, when your best 330 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 3: players are also some of those vocal players, times like. 331 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 4: This kind of huge. 332 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 3: It's huge because the guys at all levels. He is 333 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 3: a guy that works hard, he performs on the field. 334 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 3: It's trustworthy, and so his voice carries a lot of weight. 335 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 3: Jamar is not always a super vocal guy. I don't 336 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 3: think if he have his default is he wants to 337 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 3: talk all the time. But he felt the need that 338 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 3: he needed to talk and I appreciate that he did 339 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 3: that because some guys that's just not they don't. They 340 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 3: don't do it, they don't major in it, and so 341 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 3: when they do it sometimes it carries a lot more 342 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 3: weight because guys know he's not vocal, he brings a 343 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 3: ton of energy. Doesn't mean he doesn't speak. He brings 344 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 3: a lot of energy at practice, which he need. But 345 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 3: in terms of addressing the team as a whole, that's 346 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 3: part of the way that he approached that and he 347 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 3: was very significant for our guys. 348 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 5: Much more production. 349 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 4: Targets not named. 350 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 3: Jamark Well, it's that's a that's a matter of opportunity, 351 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 3: and so we we have not given ourselves a lot 352 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 3: of opportunity with getting first downs. So you can always 353 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 3: look at the end of the game and the targets, 354 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 3: and when you're scoring three points, you're not you're not 355 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 3: creating a lot of opportunities for yourself. And plays are 356 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 3: drives are being stunned by turnovers, some three and outs, 357 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 3: and so yeah, I wish we were having more twelve 358 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 3: play drives where we could get everybody covered and create 359 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 3: more opportunity for people. And we just starting with me, 360 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 3: that I haven't done a good enough job getting us 361 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 3: in position where we can utilize all those weapons. 362 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 4: Andre did have his best statistical game this year. Are 363 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 4: theur opportunities there for him? 364 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, there are, yep. Again, that's that's that's us. That's 365 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 3: not that's not an Andre anything. Andre has done everything 366 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 3: he can to create that opportunity for himself, whether it's 367 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 3: run blocking, whether it's b walking down the field on 368 00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 3: scrambles for other guys, whether that's winning one on one. 369 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 3: You know, as we were getting both guys doubled yesterday, 370 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 3: and so you put them on the same side of 371 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 3: field and you let Andre work one on one and 372 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 3: he comes up big force down the field. 373 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 5: And so. 374 00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 3: He just he made some big plays for us yesterday. 375 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 3: And he's a that we can always count on and tall. 376 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 3: We have a lot of weapons, and so there's always 377 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 3: gonna be questions on why did this guy not get this? Well, 378 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 3: it's difficult. It's challenging when I've got to figure out 379 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 3: a way to get more production out of our offense 380 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 3: because we have a lot of playmakers. 381 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 1: Okay, thanks, This has been Zach Taylor press conference on 382 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 1: ESPN fifteen thirty, the official home of US Cincinnati Bengals. 383 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 2: All right, there he goes Zach Taylor chatting with the 384 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 2: local professional football media on ESPN fifteen thirty, the day 385 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 2: after the Bengals get beaten by the lines three consecutive 386 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 2: losses for Cincinnati thirty seven to twenty four of the 387 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 2: final score yesterday.

Tough matchup, Oh, short week bad matchup. 420 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:37,360 Speaker 2: Well, then it could be the Jets who might not 421 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 2: have a win by then. Bad matchup playing a really 422 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:40,920 Speaker 2: hungry team. 423 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 7: Hungry team. Aaron Glenn is close. Yeah, they've just been 424 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 7: waiting for that opportunity. Do you think that like Scott Frost, 425 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 7: if he speaks tomorrow, will come out and just say, man, 426 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 7: you see, he's just a tough matchup? Are the Bearcats 427 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 7: the tough matchup for other teams that other teams are 428 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:58,120 Speaker 7: for the Bengals. 429 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 2: Well, they were on Saturday? How about that for Iowa 430 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 2: State winners go first and the Barracats winners on Saturday? 431 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 2: Thirty eight thirty over Iowa State to Bearracats on the 432 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 2: cusp of the EIGHTP Top twenty five pole, twenty sixth 433 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 2: this week twenty eighth in the coaches poll. Has the 434 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:17,640 Speaker 2: program turned a corner? 435 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:18,359 Speaker 6: It feels like it. 436 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 7: So, it felt like Kansas was a starting point, and 437 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,200 Speaker 7: then I think it's important how you handle some success. 438 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 7: I said it leading into the game on Saturday. As players. 439 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,920 Speaker 7: Now as coaches, you're doing more media, talking to TV, 440 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,880 Speaker 7: you're going to class and people are singing your praises. 441 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 7: It's a little bit easier to take the foot off 442 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 7: the gas. That's the opposite of what they did thirty 443 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 7: one to seven. At one point they almost put two 444 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 7: what was it two sixteen rushing in the first half, 445 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 7: and they had given up one to eighteen a game 446 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,919 Speaker 7: had Iowa State, so almost one hundred yards over the total. 447 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:58,120 Speaker 7: It was one of the most physical displays up front, 448 00:19:58,119 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 7: by the way, third time this year offensive line of 449 00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:02,439 Speaker 7: the week in the Big twelve. Yep, they're playing at 450 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 7: such a high level. Sowersby wasn't his best and then 451 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 7: made the biggest throw when he needed to, and I 452 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:11,360 Speaker 7: thought at times the defense looked rough, and then they 453 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 7: got five stops in a row in the second half 454 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 7: when they needed. 455 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:17,359 Speaker 2: To well, when it felt like the script was going 456 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 2: to be familiar again, because I think there were a 457 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,640 Speaker 2: lot of us thinking this is pit two point zero, right, 458 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 2: especially with the way the first half ended garbage PI call, 459 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:28,680 Speaker 2: so it goes from thirty one to seven instead it's 460 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 2: thirty one fourteen, and you're feeling like, you know what, 461 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 2: here we go. And every time in the second half 462 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 2: where it felt like the defense needed to get a stop, 463 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:37,200 Speaker 2: it did. 464 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 7: I think it goes to show that that that's a 465 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 7: group that can play with confidence. It's also hard playing 466 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:49,119 Speaker 7: another offense that practices against your scheme every day, like 467 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 7: that's not easy. Iowa State knows what they're gonna do. 468 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 7: You're not gonna surprise anybody. But their playmakers made plays 469 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 7: when they needed it and when a penalty wasn't caught 470 00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 7: on it. Multiple multiple opportunities given to Iowa State due 471 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:05,680 Speaker 7: to penalties, some warranted, some not. But even that part 472 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 7: of it, even that aspect, I thought they responded well 473 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 7: to adversity at different times in that game. I don't 474 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 7: know if I've seen a more dominant half offensively by 475 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 7: a football team in a long time, especially by an 476 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 7: offensive line, especially by. 477 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,439 Speaker 6: The offensive line who I know. 478 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 7: I said, you and I are probably haters of the 479 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 7: second and ten run more than anybody. It was UC's 480 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:33,080 Speaker 7: best weapon on Saturday. Six different times they got twelve 481 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:36,640 Speaker 7: or more yards on second long runs. They're just operating 482 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 7: with confidence. They got a good group up front, protecting 483 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:42,880 Speaker 7: receivers are coming into their own. The way they use 484 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 7: Royer for the touchdown when I thought was phenomenal. I'd 485 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 7: still like to see them use him more on those 486 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 7: short yarded situations and getting Dante Corleone back and getting 487 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 7: some confidence on the defensive side of the ball. I 488 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 7: like where they're at and Oh, by the way, there 489 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:58,919 Speaker 7: are light years from where they were last year on 490 00:21:58,920 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 7: special teams. 491 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,919 Speaker 2: I was gonna bring that up and Max Fletcher had 492 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 2: a couple of bad punts, including the one at the 493 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 2: end of the game where they inexplicably decided to back 494 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 2: the ball out of bounds. But beyond that, Russknack the 495 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:14,920 Speaker 2: kicker has been perfect. They had a ball where they 496 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 2: downed it inside the five, which, by the way, the 497 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 2: Bengals could learn how to do this with their putter 498 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,119 Speaker 2: Ryan Rico, who just seems content to try to kick 499 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 2: the ball into the stands. But that was something you 500 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 2: and I talked about a lot this summer. The special 501 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 2: teams play last year was atrocious, yep. And the small 502 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 2: margin for ERA last year was made even smaller because 503 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 2: they were so bad in that area. It has turned 504 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:37,880 Speaker 2: into a. 505 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 7: Weapon, yeah, and it's been a strong weapon, not only 506 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,919 Speaker 7: the punt, but you know, we mentioned this with mc 507 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 7: pherson in the offseason for the Bengals as a quarterback, 508 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 7: if you know, and let's say for Russknack, it's the 509 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 7: thirty yard line. If you're inside the thirty and you're 510 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 7: facing a third down, if you're not confident in the 511 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 7: guy that's gonna come on and kick you got a 512 00:22:57,600 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 7: higher likelihood and maybe try and fit a pass into 513 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,199 Speaker 7: a window you shouldn't, or take a chance instead if 514 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 7: it's not there, burn it, live to see another down 515 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 7: and take the three points. It's just a weapon that 516 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 7: they didn't possess last year that they are now in 517 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 7: possession of, and it it makes them even harder to 518 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 7: defend because then as a defense on third and short, 519 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,160 Speaker 7: now you're trying to force a negative play. You want 520 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,119 Speaker 7: to bring pressure, you want to add something leaves your 521 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 7: vulnerable on the back end. So they work in unison 522 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 7: really well. We talked about the Lions, how they seemingly 523 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 7: work off each other and everything they do to a sense, 524 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 7: that's UC's offense. R Walker is the power back Prior 525 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:37,440 Speaker 7: is the explosive back sworersby can run it. They're utilizing 526 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:41,159 Speaker 7: their receivers in multiple ways. They hit them with the 527 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,399 Speaker 7: jets sweeps, they widen the defense out, they take shots 528 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,400 Speaker 7: over the top when they need to. They're just they're 529 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:49,880 Speaker 7: well balanced and Scott Saderfield seems to have a good 530 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 7: grip on who they are offensively. 531 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 2: This feels different than last year. At the same time, 532 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 2: last year they were five and two and then never 533 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 2: one again. What should make someone feel like history won't 534 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:01,679 Speaker 2: repeat itself. 535 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 7: More consistence on the offensive side of the ball, I 536 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:06,680 Speaker 7: think is the biggest. I think special teams plays a role, 537 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 7: and I think defense, even though the last two weeks 538 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,639 Speaker 7: haven't been great, I think Kansas is gonna put up 539 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 7: a lot of points on a lot of teams. That's 540 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 7: not a good matchup for a three to three five defense. 541 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:21,439 Speaker 7: The way Kansas shifts and moves, and you didn't have 542 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 7: Dante Corleone. I think the defense is more consistent, but overall, 543 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 7: the offense is playing at such a higher level and 544 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:30,880 Speaker 7: they're just in rhythm with everything that they do. 545 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 6: And let's call it what it is. The schedule is 546 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 6: in favor of them. 547 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 7: They're ten and a half point favorites on Saturday, They're 548 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 7: gonna be favorites in Oklahoma State by the time eight 549 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 7: or by the way eight PM start, They'll be favored 550 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 7: against Baylor coming back home. Their toughest matchup still is 551 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 7: BYU that's a home game late in the year. So 552 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:53,160 Speaker 7: they best team in the league right now. They miss 553 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 7: Arizona State. It's a good team. 554 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 6: I think the schedules are a lot more favorable as well. 555 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 2: And they might not get UCF starting quarterback Tenn Jackson, 556 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 2: who got injured in that game against against Kansas four 557 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 2: and one. It does feel like to me the difference 558 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 2: is this last year and the second half of the season, 559 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 2: the offense went into a shell because they didn't have 560 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 2: dudes on the outside. I think they've got dudes on 561 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 2: the outside. 562 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 7: They were easier to guard last year a lot. Yeah, 563 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 7: take away the run game, load the box, make somebody 564 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:19,679 Speaker 7: beat you. They didn't have it. 565 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:20,880 Speaker 2: I don't think that's the case this year. 566 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:21,200 Speaker 6: Yep. 567 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:24,680 Speaker 7: They can beat you in so many different ways, with 568 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 7: so many different guys. 569 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,400 Speaker 2: I said this to you on the pregame show yesterday. 570 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 2: You stepped in for Jim Kelly yet again on Saturday 571 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 2: and did an awesome job doing color, which is no surprise. 572 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:38,880 Speaker 2: We do want to on this show at least make 573 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,480 Speaker 2: sure that folks are aware that Jim is stepped away 574 00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,239 Speaker 2: for the rest of the season. It's fighting cancer and 575 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 2: we're rooting for him, and ask our audience if they 576 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 2: can send him some good wishes, because the cool thing 577 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:53,160 Speaker 2: about Saturday was they won the game and then all 578 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 2: of us felt the exact same thing. This was for 579 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 2: Jim Kelly. 580 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 7: Yeah, I've said it a couple of times. I think 581 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:02,160 Speaker 7: the Kelly fan, you see his royalty like you think 582 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 7: of excellence. You think of the Kelly family and the 583 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,400 Speaker 7: impact that they've had as a whole on the University 584 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:11,880 Speaker 7: of Cincinnati. And yet that legacy and that excellence comes 585 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 7: far short of how amazing of a person he is. Yes, 586 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 7: like excellence in sports. The person that Jim is, family man, 587 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:24,840 Speaker 7: nicest guy, shirt off his back, everything that you'd ever need, 588 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,439 Speaker 7: he's Uh, he's there for and uh, we're certainly pulling 589 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 7: for him. I think of road trips that we've been at, 590 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 7: like I'm gonna miss road trips, just not so much 591 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 7: for the game, but being able to hang out with 592 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 7: Jim and go to dinner and have drinks the night 593 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 7: before that was always a highlight for me as well. 594 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:43,120 Speaker 7: So he's missed and our thoughts are certainly with him 595 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 7: and the battle that he's facing, and and we wish him, uh, 596 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 7: nothing but the best. 597 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 2: No one personifies U see football more and no one's 598 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:54,400 Speaker 2: more synonymous, and no one cares about that program more, 599 00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 2: and we care about Jim, so certainly sending him our 600 00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 2: best and uh and it was it was really cool 601 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 2: that I think everybody felt the exact same thing. After 602 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 2: that game mended. The Bearcats won one for Jim Kelly. 603 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 2: Twenty five away from four o'clock.

Yes, when I watched the Reds 665 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 2: this year, I thought to myself, he's doing a really 666 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 2: good job during the first coach Kidney, come on, come on, 667 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 2: all right, I know you don't want to do it. 668 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 2: Take a break in a few minutes, all right. Jake 669 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 2: Browning's play yesterday was putrid, and I do not care 670 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 2: that he threw a couple of garbage time touchdown passes 671 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 2: when the game was in the balance. He's stunk at 672 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 2: one point. Because Jake Browning stunk so bad, Jamar Chase 673 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 2: was leading the team in tackles. If there's one thing 674 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 2: I think we learned yesterday, by the way, it's that 675 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 2: Jamar Chase is among the team's more reliable tacklers. Yes, 676 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 2: you know, Jermaine got released by the Raiders. He could 677 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 2: perhaps learn something from Jamar Chase. My question for you, though, 678 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 2: is this, Jake Browning did do a nice job in 679 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 2: twenty twenty. Sure he was undrafted when he had success 680 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 2: with the Bengals in twenty twenty three. NFL teams which 681 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 2: are starved for quarterbacks weren't exactly knocking down the Bengals 682 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 2: door to try to get him. He's a dude who 683 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 2: bounced around a little bit. He was never drafted. Should 684 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 2: we be shocked that his poor play is as bad 685 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 2: as it's been since he took over for Sober. 686 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 7: He didn't get drafted for a reason. He's a backup 687 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 7: for a reason. The shocking point of it is that 688 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 7: he's still the quarterback of the Bengals. The shocking point 689 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 7: that weeks ago they did not bring someone in house 690 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 7: just to get them up the speed in case this happened. 691 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 7: That's what's shocking. He can't start another game for the Bengals. 692 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 7: This team went nineteen possessions without a touchdown, nineteen to 693 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 7: trade possessions. You mentioned Jamar Chase being a leading tackler. 694 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 7: At one point in the second quarter, he had thrown 695 00:31:56,800 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 7: more interceptions than yards park completion, two interceptions in one 696 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 7: point eight yards per completion. He he misses more and 697 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 7: this is to me why and I try to break 698 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 7: it down in these videos, Zach gets a ton of 699 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,760 Speaker 7: heat and rightfully so. There are plays called that if 700 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,200 Speaker 7: you just take the simplest of reeds for a quarterback, 701 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 7: you are going to succeed. Throws are just blatantly missed. 702 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 7: Reads are blatantly missed. When he does throw it to 703 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 7: the right receiver, it's just not in a good spot 704 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:30,280 Speaker 7: to make a catch. The accuracy is not there. It 705 00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,280 Speaker 7: looked like a quarterback version of the yips. When he 706 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:36,200 Speaker 7: threw the third pick yesterday, hitting himself in the helmet, 707 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 7: the look on his face was unbelievable. 708 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 6: To put it into perspective. 709 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:45,239 Speaker 7: Twenty twenty four, Joe Burrow dropped back nine hundred and 710 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 7: sixty nine hundred and fifty two times. He threw six 711 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 7: or nine interceptions. Jake Browning has thrown eight interceptions in 712 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 7: one hundred and twenty four attempts. Just that stat alone, 713 00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 7: you can't tell me that you're interested in winning if 714 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 7: you're putting him out there. 715 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 6: And I get bad plays happen. 716 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 7: The announcers were trying to find an excuse on the 717 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 7: interception to Jamar Chase down the field. 718 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:13,920 Speaker 6: He had a clean pocket. 719 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 7: He hitched up and he threw the ball what seemed 720 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:18,520 Speaker 7: like as hard as he could and it went forty 721 00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 7: five yards in the air. 722 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 6: Was there a stiff win yesterday at the stadium. 723 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 7: No, he missed Jamar Chase on the first interception, on 724 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 7: a throw that any quarterback should make. You know you 725 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 7: miss outside and if not, reset your feet and hit 726 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 7: t Higgins in your progression in the middle of the field. 727 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:37,720 Speaker 7: But the worst the defense actually played well fourteen to 728 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 7: three coming out of the half. Go get a touchdown 729 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 7: and see what happens. And you threw your worst of 730 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 7: the interceptions to start the third quarter. How he finished 731 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 7: the game, I don't know how he could ever start 732 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 7: another game for this team. 733 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 6: I don't know. 734 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 2: I will ask you in a few minutes about the 735 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 2: weird sequence at the end of the first half, because 736 00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 2: I hate how that unfolded. But my thought at halftime, 737 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:01,760 Speaker 2: wandering the concourse amid all the Lions was, Okay, Jake, 738 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:04,920 Speaker 2: I'll give you one series in the second half. Yep, right, 739 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 2: I've given you a long leash. I've watched you sink 740 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,400 Speaker 2: our team the previous two weeks. I've watched you in 741 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 2: the first half put us behind the eight ball. I 742 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 2: will give you, though. I will give you the first 743 00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 2: drive of the second half, and if we don't see 744 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 2: seven points or at least dramatic improvement. I gotta try 745 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:27,840 Speaker 2: somebody else. I'd put on social media, like put in 746 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:29,799 Speaker 2: the other guy. I don't even care who the other 747 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 2: guy is. Any living, breathing human being with at least 748 00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 2: one arm put in there, whether it's Brett Rippen or 749 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 2: anybody else, I do not know. I don't know how 750 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:43,360 Speaker 2: you could look at the other players on the team, 751 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:46,560 Speaker 2: say what you want about the roster, including guys you 752 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,759 Speaker 2: have benched for poor performance, and look at them and 753 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:51,839 Speaker 2: say we're gonna stay with number six. 754 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 7: But that's part of the problem. If three weeks ago 755 00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 7: they went out and signed Russell Wilson and he was 756 00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:58,520 Speaker 7: on the roster, would he have been put in yesterday? 757 00:34:58,520 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 2: I would like to think so. 758 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:01,320 Speaker 6: Yes, he'd have been putting in at halftime. 759 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 7: But the fact that you didn't sign him or any 760 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 7: other quarterback outside of again, no offense to Sean Clifford 761 00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 7: and Mike White. If it's any other quarterback, he's in 762 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 7: the game yesterday. But the fact that you didn't do 763 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:17,319 Speaker 7: your work. Then again, fourteen three at a half, you 764 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 7: could turn to Russ, you could turn to anyone else. Hey, 765 00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:23,800 Speaker 7: go get us back in this thing instead another futrid interception, 766 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:29,080 Speaker 7: and here we are again. To me the statement last week, 767 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 7: utmost confidence in Jake Browning lie has to be And there's. 768 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:34,560 Speaker 6: No way I was. 769 00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:36,799 Speaker 7: I was in the locker room for a one win 770 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 7: team in Carolina that's not flying. There's no one in 771 00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:43,239 Speaker 7: that locker room that's believing that Jake Browning is giving 772 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 7: them a chance to win. 773 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:45,520 Speaker 6: And the longer you keep. 774 00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:49,360 Speaker 7: This up, the more and more you lose the locker room. 775 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,800 Speaker 2: So it's Monday at three forty eight. Yeah, Zach Taylor 776 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,800 Speaker 2: said forty minutes ago. Quote, We'll see where it goes. 777 00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:59,719 Speaker 2: Maybe there's a guy in the building right now finalizing 778 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 2: the and he's gonna practice tomorrow and be the starting 779 00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 2: quarterback on Sunday. Maybe right now it's Jake Browning or 780 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:11,800 Speaker 2: Brett Rippan are one of those other dudes. Now, Brett 781 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:14,479 Speaker 2: Rippin might be better than Jake Browning. Frankly, it's hard 782 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:18,320 Speaker 2: to imagine he could be any worse. But like the 783 00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:20,960 Speaker 2: game happened almost twenty four hours ago. 784 00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:21,600 Speaker 6: Yep. 785 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:24,800 Speaker 2: So if they if they haven't brought in somebody else today, 786 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:27,919 Speaker 2: like could they? I know other teams could because I've 787 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 2: seen other teams do it. Could they bring in somebody 788 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,799 Speaker 2: from outside, have them practice on Wednesday and feel like 789 00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:36,840 Speaker 2: they could win at Green Bay on Sunday? 790 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:40,640 Speaker 7: It would bring in in someone from the outside. Practicing 791 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:42,799 Speaker 7: on Wednesday would give them a better chance to win 792 00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 7: at Green Bay. 793 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:44,240 Speaker 6: I agree easily. 794 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 7: You could bring someone in Thursday and I'd still say 795 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:49,320 Speaker 7: it gives them a better chance to win in Green Bay. 796 00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 2: They could pick somebody up in Appleton, Wisconsin on Sunday morning, 797 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:54,480 Speaker 2: and I think would give him a better chance in 798 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:55,880 Speaker 2: beating the Packers than Jake Browning. 799 00:36:55,920 --> 00:37:02,360 Speaker 7: Because the throws that Jake Brownie missed not crazy reads. 800 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 7: It's not confusing reads. It's very simple. Just put the 801 00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:08,759 Speaker 7: ball where it needs to go and read the right 802 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,400 Speaker 7: side of the field. They didn't do any of that. 803 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 7: Like that's why. Again, there was a point I said 804 00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:15,880 Speaker 7: to my wife yesterday, I think BROWNI was eight of 805 00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 7: seventeen for thirty one yards. I think I could have 806 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:21,359 Speaker 7: done that. I legit think I could have shown up 807 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:27,399 Speaker 7: and done that yesterday. Now scrambling around the throat of no, yeah, 808 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:29,320 Speaker 7: I'm out, but yeah, what he did in the first 809 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:33,480 Speaker 7: half as bad as bad a quarterback performance as I 810 00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:36,080 Speaker 7: remember seeing and the fact that he came back out 811 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 7: do an interception to start the third quarter and still 812 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 7: finished the game is remarkable to me. 813 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:46,360 Speaker 2: So after the Jacksonville game, most of us felt like, Okay, 814 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 2: their championship hopes went up and smoked because Burrow's not healthy, 815 00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 2: but they should still be able to win games because 816 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 2: this is a decent backup quarterback. We felt that way 817 00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,480 Speaker 2: because of what we watched from him two years ago. Yep, 818 00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 2: why why do the sudden drop off? Like what if 819 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:06,839 Speaker 2: we're watching critically two years ago versus now, what are 820 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:08,799 Speaker 2: you pointing out that he did well two years ago 821 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:10,360 Speaker 2: that he seemingly can't do now. 822 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 7: The fact that they have zero semblance of a running 823 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 7: game hurts, sure, because you can run screens and you 824 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 7: can do under center, but if no one respects that 825 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:19,319 Speaker 7: you're going to run the ball, it doesn't matter. 826 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:20,279 Speaker 6: No one's biting on it. 827 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 7: You know, they tried to run the screen on the 828 00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:25,640 Speaker 7: third and fifteen early and they couldn't even come close 829 00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:27,759 Speaker 7: to it because no one's biting on a run. 830 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:28,960 Speaker 6: No one's believing in that. 831 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:32,440 Speaker 7: So the inability to have any semblance of a running game, 832 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 7: which by the way, it's hard to have a semblance 833 00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:36,400 Speaker 7: of a running game when you give up on it. 834 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 7: As well, most teams run early so that they can 835 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:41,239 Speaker 7: run late. They don't stick to the running game at all. 836 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,120 Speaker 7: But ken you when you're always down twenty eight three, 837 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:45,399 Speaker 7: Yeah that's a problem as well. 838 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:47,239 Speaker 2: But yeah, should down twenty eight three each in the 839 00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 2: last three games. 840 00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:54,399 Speaker 7: But outside of that, in the offensive line, I don't 841 00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:56,320 Speaker 7: know that there are many differences that you can point 842 00:38:56,320 --> 00:39:00,319 Speaker 7: to that team years ago could have a little bit 843 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 7: better success running the ball the game Jake Brownie took over. 844 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:06,320 Speaker 7: We highlighted that here in Westchester in the wins and 845 00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:08,520 Speaker 7: those four wins, the one constant was they were all 846 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 7: able to run the ball at different times throughout those games. 847 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 7: They can't do that now, which means the quarterback has 848 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:17,840 Speaker 7: to shoulder more of the load. Which again, great high school, 849 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:19,120 Speaker 7: great college career. 850 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 6: Undrafted for a reason, I. 851 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,880 Speaker 2: Want to make a correction, The Bengals didn't trail Minnesota 852 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 2: twenty eight three. Oh, they trailed twenty four to three, 853 00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 2: and then thirty one to three, okay, and then thirty 854 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:35,160 Speaker 2: four to three, forty one to three, and forty eight three. 855 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:38,720 Speaker 7: So sorry that sorry about that. The game never felt 856 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,719 Speaker 7: winnable yesterday. I think that was the most demoralizing thing 857 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 7: for me. 858 00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:45,719 Speaker 2: Tony didn't feel winnable at noon yesterday. No. I mean, 859 00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:50,080 Speaker 2: we did a three hour pregame show. I cannot recall 860 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,680 Speaker 2: ever hosting a pregame show with you or anybody else where. 861 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:56,400 Speaker 2: We didn't even entertain the possibility they would win. No, 862 00:39:57,120 --> 00:39:59,799 Speaker 2: And that to me is the most frustrating thing. What 863 00:39:59,840 --> 00:40:02,279 Speaker 2: we we watched ended up being what we assumed we 864 00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:05,720 Speaker 2: would see. Yeah, from Jake Browning and everybody else. 865 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:07,880 Speaker 7: And I go back to what we talked about on 866 00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:11,880 Speaker 7: the pregame show yesterday. Jamar Chase said last week we 867 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:15,520 Speaker 7: need more anger and fire. Where's it coming from? 868 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:18,040 Speaker 2: Uh, It's gonna come from Taran if we keep going 869 00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:21,280 Speaker 2: eight away from four o'clock Twin Peaks in Westchester, Tony 870 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,920 Speaker 2: and Mo Football Show on ESPN fifteen thirty, Cincinnati Sports. 871 00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:31,439 Speaker 14: Station Cincinnati's ESPN fifteen thirty.

We are here till 896 00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 2: six o'clock, back to back weeks in Westchester, right off 897 00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:06,919 Speaker 2: I seventy five the Union Center Boulevard exit. I think 898 00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:09,719 Speaker 2: we have been really focused in the first hour. I 899 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:13,960 Speaker 2: would say a laser like focus focused on the content. 900 00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:16,560 Speaker 2: So far in the first hour program, it's been it's 901 00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:19,680 Speaker 2: been amazing. There's you know, what we do on the 902 00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:22,240 Speaker 2: air is a lot of fun. Yeah, But I really 903 00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 2: do encourage people to come to Twin Peaks because sometimes 904 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:27,239 Speaker 2: it's the stuff that you can't. 905 00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:31,280 Speaker 7: Hear on the radio. This commercial breaks really is the key. Yeah, 906 00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:34,200 Speaker 7: and I think we just experienced one of those. It's incredible. 907 00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:35,520 Speaker 2: Uh. 908 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:38,520 Speaker 7: And at the very core, we may be on the 909 00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:40,680 Speaker 7: cusp of getting Joe Burrow back. 910 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:43,640 Speaker 2: I'll let you expand on that. 911 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:51,200 Speaker 7: How about the defense from yesterday? I have to do 912 00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:55,759 Speaker 7: some more research before I can divulge anything else that 913 00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:56,080 Speaker 7: I have. 914 00:42:57,280 --> 00:42:58,280 Speaker 6: It's a lot happening. 915 00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:00,440 Speaker 7: There is a lot happening, and there's deals most like 916 00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 7: our holiday shows going on. 917 00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:04,400 Speaker 6: It feels like a bye week or the holiday. 918 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:07,600 Speaker 2: It's it's week five, the week five. We're going to 919 00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:12,640 Speaker 2: do aught though it is another tough matchup. So I 920 00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:15,360 Speaker 2: could not encourage you more to come to the Tony 921 00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:18,239 Speaker 2: and Mo Football Show at Twin Peaks, because you know, 922 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 2: it really is an immersive experience that you have to 923 00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:23,680 Speaker 2: sort of enjoy. 924 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:26,800 Speaker 6: In person, see to believe, see to believe. 925 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 2: So we're gonna talk. We're gonna talk more about Jake 926 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:32,719 Speaker 2: Browning in the game itself yesterday and all of that. 927 00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:37,560 Speaker 2: Here's my first issue with the Bengals as they currently stand. 928 00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:42,360 Speaker 2: This organization is built on one thing. It's built on 929 00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:47,960 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow elevating everybody else. It is a flimsy plan 930 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:52,319 Speaker 2: because number one, you can't keep Joe healthy. Also, last year, 931 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:56,319 Speaker 2: Joe was healthy and played great, he was awesome. The 932 00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:58,040 Speaker 2: team finished nine and eight. They had to win their 933 00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 2: last five games to even have a chance to make 934 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:07,800 Speaker 2: the postseason. That if anything exposed last year, the holes 935 00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:11,640 Speaker 2: on the roster, the flaws that are sort of built 936 00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:15,360 Speaker 2: into this organization. So what happens this year? Joe isn't healthy, 937 00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:19,920 Speaker 2: Joe can't play, and so this already shaky premise of 938 00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 2: have Joe elevate everybody now it falls apart. The entire 939 00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:27,880 Speaker 2: thing collapses, And yes, Jake Browning has been terrible, and 940 00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:31,520 Speaker 2: yes they should be examining any and all options at quarterback. 941 00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:34,279 Speaker 2: But I look at the team left in the wake 942 00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:38,319 Speaker 2: of Joe Burrow leaving to go on IR and I 943 00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:41,440 Speaker 2: see a bad roster, not good. I have a hard time, Tony, 944 00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:46,440 Speaker 2: I will. I'll remove rookies from this conversation. So Shamar Stewart, 945 00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:51,120 Speaker 2: Demetrius Knight, Barrett Carter, guys like that, Dylan Fairchild, look 946 00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:54,640 Speaker 2: at everybody else. I can't find five players I'm excited 947 00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:55,960 Speaker 2: about being on next year's team. 948 00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:57,640 Speaker 6: They're not a good team. 949 00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:00,760 Speaker 7: The team and the premise is built on Joe Burrow 950 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:02,759 Speaker 7: to go be great like he was last year. Went oh, 951 00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:06,120 Speaker 7: by the way, he was great statistically, Jamar Chase won 952 00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:08,560 Speaker 7: the Triple Crown, Trey Hendrickson led the league in sacks, 953 00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:11,879 Speaker 7: and they missed the playoffs. You essentially ran it back 954 00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:17,160 Speaker 7: with the same thing. I'm a firm believer that nothing 955 00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:20,560 Speaker 7: in their development and personnel decisions matches what they want 956 00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:23,440 Speaker 7: to do scheme wise. Because Burrow being healthy, that you 957 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:25,080 Speaker 7: put all your eggs into the basket of let's get 958 00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 7: better pass protections, which are still not He still failed 959 00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:30,560 Speaker 7: on that, but in doing so, you don't have one 960 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:34,799 Speaker 7: above average run blocker on your offensive line. Defensively, you 961 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:38,520 Speaker 7: were built to bend, but don't break. Just limit teams 962 00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:40,920 Speaker 7: to three or field goal tries and the offense is 963 00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:43,080 Speaker 7: going to score the points. Now, what are we asking 964 00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:43,799 Speaker 7: the defense to do? 965 00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:44,239 Speaker 13: Now? 966 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:47,040 Speaker 7: They gotta be better. They don't have the personnel to 967 00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:51,359 Speaker 7: be better. They're a bad defense. Cam Taylor Brett can't cover, 968 00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:56,200 Speaker 7: Josh Newton can't cover. Yesterday, they asked Cam Sample and 969 00:45:56,280 --> 00:46:00,400 Speaker 7: Joseph Osai to cover. Neither of them can cover. Logan 970 00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:04,120 Speaker 7: Wilson right now can't cover. And if your name's not 971 00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:07,719 Speaker 7: Trey Hendrickson, they really can't get after the passer. They 972 00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:12,799 Speaker 7: are void of talent and void of coaching that can 973 00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:15,920 Speaker 7: out scheme and out manage the lack of talent to 974 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:19,719 Speaker 7: bring success a lah what Shanahan did on Thursday Night 975 00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:22,400 Speaker 7: Football with Mac Jones. They don't have the ability and 976 00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:24,799 Speaker 7: the coaching staff to do that. They don't have the 977 00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:27,399 Speaker 7: roster to do it. And when you don't have Joe 978 00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 7: Burrow to say, hey, roll them on out there, go 979 00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:31,680 Speaker 7: be great. If you don't like what I call, just 980 00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:34,000 Speaker 7: change it. At to the line of scrimmage when you 981 00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:37,040 Speaker 7: don't have any of that. You're going to see what 982 00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:39,360 Speaker 7: you're seeing now, which is a team that's not competitive 983 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:41,800 Speaker 7: and a team that's not able, like we see across 984 00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:46,319 Speaker 7: the NFL. To shock anybody, we mentioned yesterday Carolina one 985 00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:49,640 Speaker 7: a game thirty to nothing over the Atlanta Falcons. How 986 00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:53,520 Speaker 7: they're not a better roster? How does San Francisco win 987 00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:57,160 Speaker 7: on Thursday night? How does the Giants without a win 988 00:46:57,200 --> 00:46:59,719 Speaker 7: and a rookie quarterback beat the Chargers? It happens throughout 989 00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:03,160 Speaker 7: the end, all the time. The Bengals don't have the 990 00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:05,959 Speaker 7: ability to do that because, in my opinion, they don't 991 00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:07,839 Speaker 7: have the coaching to do it. And when you don't 992 00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:09,759 Speaker 7: have the coach and they also don't have the roster. 993 00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:11,920 Speaker 2: To back it up, right, So it's it's like chicken 994 00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:13,799 Speaker 2: of the egg. It's like a hamster, right, I mean, 995 00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:18,399 Speaker 2: it's just But the frustrating thing for me is at 996 00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:20,719 Speaker 2: the end of last season, we looked at that team 997 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:24,759 Speaker 2: and said not good enough. Yeah, not good enough. The 998 00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:27,520 Speaker 2: record told you as much. Defensively, what did they do? 999 00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:32,239 Speaker 2: Same group of DB's back, same money, same group of 1000 00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:34,640 Speaker 2: d one guy you asked to take a pack of cut, 1001 00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:38,960 Speaker 2: same group of DB's back. Yeah, So why would anybody 1002 00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:41,880 Speaker 2: be surprised that the same group of dbs is struggling 1003 00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:45,800 Speaker 2: this year now? But having Schamar Stewart healthy would probably help. 1004 00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 2: But they have been struggling to find a consistent pass 1005 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:52,040 Speaker 2: rush minus Trey Hendrickson for a while now. They looked 1006 00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:55,080 Speaker 2: at their defense last year and said, we don't need 1007 00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:57,520 Speaker 2: an overhaul. We need to basically run it back with 1008 00:47:57,560 --> 00:48:00,600 Speaker 2: all these guys and and Al Golden is gonna get 1009 00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 2: significantly better results from last year's unit. The offensive line, 1010 00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:08,479 Speaker 2: we have beaten this to death. It's not been because 1011 00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:10,799 Speaker 2: of lack of trying. It's not been because of lack 1012 00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:14,200 Speaker 2: of financial investment. Duke Tobin hasn't gotten it done. The 1013 00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:17,960 Speaker 2: offensive line has stunk for a decade. Now, did it 1014 00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:19,439 Speaker 2: feel like they went to the end of the earth. 1015 00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:21,920 Speaker 2: They were still signing offensive lineman with a week to 1016 00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:24,960 Speaker 2: go before the season started in Dalton Reisner, and that 1017 00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:28,120 Speaker 2: guy lasted three games. So you have areas of your 1018 00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:31,279 Speaker 2: team that weren't good last year or who have or 1019 00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:34,040 Speaker 2: that have stunk for a while, and Duke Tobin did 1020 00:48:34,080 --> 00:48:35,320 Speaker 2: next to nothing with either. 1021 00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:37,799 Speaker 6: I heard Austin say it today. 1022 00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:40,719 Speaker 7: If the season ended today, and you're going in the offseason, 1023 00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:42,760 Speaker 7: you can make the argument you need a left tackle, 1024 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:43,160 Speaker 7: center and. 1025 00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:43,600 Speaker 6: A right guard. 1026 00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:46,480 Speaker 7: Uh huh already, uh huh. And that's hoping Mims and 1027 00:48:46,520 --> 00:48:50,360 Speaker 7: fair Child get better. That's just on the old line already. 1028 00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:55,759 Speaker 7: What do we talk about twelve personnel? Yesterday? Mikeasicki played 1029 00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:56,640 Speaker 7: thirty one snaps. 1030 00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:57,080 Speaker 6: That's half. 1031 00:48:59,239 --> 00:49:02,840 Speaker 7: Drew Sample played twenty seven snaps, Noah Fan played fifteen. 1032 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:05,680 Speaker 7: Tanner Hudson played one. So now we've already seen them 1033 00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:09,480 Speaker 7: abandon twelve personnel. See Higgins can't get him open to 1034 00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:12,319 Speaker 7: save their life. Right, So, offensively, this scheme doesn't match 1035 00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:17,960 Speaker 7: the personnel. Again, defensively, Holy moly. We asked on the 1036 00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:21,200 Speaker 7: first drive of the game yesterday, Mo Joseph Osai to 1037 00:49:21,239 --> 00:49:25,239 Speaker 7: cover Sam Laporta. Second drive, we asked Cam Sample to 1038 00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:31,400 Speaker 7: cover Sam Laporta. We have guys, mo Demetrious Knight was drafted. 1039 00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:35,560 Speaker 7: Why he can cover and he's athletic. Logan Wilson played 1040 00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:38,280 Speaker 7: one hundred percent of the snaps. Demetrius Knight played fifty 1041 00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:42,200 Speaker 7: eight percent, Barreck Carter fifty three percent. 1042 00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:46,640 Speaker 2: I'm not sure Barrett Carter's snap count should be zero. Yeah, 1043 00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:48,319 Speaker 2: I'm not sure that dude can play right. 1044 00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:51,200 Speaker 7: I don't either, but it's like, nothing makes sense. You 1045 00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:53,920 Speaker 7: drafted Demetrius Knight to be a cover guy. Why is 1046 00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:55,719 Speaker 7: Logan Wilson now back to one hundred percent of the 1047 00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:58,200 Speaker 7: naps and you're taking Demetrius Knight snaps making it up 1048 00:49:58,239 --> 00:50:00,840 Speaker 7: as they go along. And what's we're baffling to me? 1049 00:50:01,280 --> 00:50:04,880 Speaker 7: Their best player on defense, Trey Hendrickson. What were we 1050 00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:07,759 Speaker 7: told in the offseason when Tray was away. Trey does 1051 00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:10,439 Speaker 7: a great job keeping his body ready. He'll be ready 1052 00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:13,920 Speaker 7: to go. Trey Hendrickson yesterday did not play as many 1053 00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:15,560 Speaker 7: snaps as Joseph Osai. 1054 00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:18,080 Speaker 6: Now two weeks ago. 1055 00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:19,799 Speaker 2: Well, you're gonna trade him. You can't get him hurt. 1056 00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:20,439 Speaker 6: Two weeks ago? 1057 00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:23,480 Speaker 7: What we say in Denver man Hendrickson was on the 1058 00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:24,680 Speaker 7: sideline every time I saw him. 1059 00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:27,239 Speaker 6: He played sixty percent of the. 1060 00:50:27,239 --> 00:50:32,359 Speaker 7: Snaps yesterday with Shamar Stewart out of the game. So 1061 00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:36,880 Speaker 7: you're shorthanded and you already lack playmakers, and Trey Hendrickson 1062 00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:40,840 Speaker 7: can't play more than sixty percent of the snaps. Nothing 1063 00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:43,719 Speaker 7: about the personnel and the scheme makes sense with this 1064 00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:46,200 Speaker 7: team from the way they've been built to the way 1065 00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:49,440 Speaker 7: they've been coached, by the way short sample size. Lu 1066 00:50:49,480 --> 00:50:51,959 Speaker 7: An Arumo's got a top five defense cooking now an Indy. 1067 00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:53,919 Speaker 7: Oh crazy, how that works? 1068 00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:54,160 Speaker 6: Oh? 1069 00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:56,880 Speaker 7: Al Golden was asked to do the impossible, come in 1070 00:50:56,920 --> 00:50:59,320 Speaker 7: and don't touch the defense and just expect to be better. 1071 00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:04,640 Speaker 7: I don't understand snap counts. Josh Newton played three snaps yesterday. 1072 00:51:04,680 --> 00:51:07,160 Speaker 7: Cam Taylor brit played twenty two. Like nothing in these 1073 00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:09,719 Speaker 7: it looks like mo They sit there and they're just 1074 00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:11,040 Speaker 7: throwing darts on a board and see it. 1075 00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:12,600 Speaker 6: Okay, let's see if this sticks. 1076 00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:15,479 Speaker 2: Well, And you mentioned Al Golden and Al Golden doesn't 1077 00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:17,719 Speaker 2: get a pass either because he took the job and 1078 00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:20,560 Speaker 2: I'm guessing signed off on Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, tell 1079 00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,360 Speaker 2: you what. Let's let's bring Cam Taylor brick back. In fact, 1080 00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:27,080 Speaker 2: let's not add a dB, let's not add a dB anywhere. 1081 00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:29,879 Speaker 2: Let's bring back all these dudes. I can do better 1082 00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:32,480 Speaker 2: with him. Well you can't. And as much as you'll 1083 00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:35,880 Speaker 2: hear from folks, well you know, Jake Browning put him 1084 00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 2: in some short fields and against that offense, they kind 1085 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:41,920 Speaker 2: of held their own. Here's what I said all off season. Okay, 1086 00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:45,759 Speaker 2: miss me with this league average defense crap, Because what 1087 00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:47,960 Speaker 2: I care about is in the fourth quarter, can you 1088 00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:50,480 Speaker 2: get stops? Can you get off the field? Can you 1089 00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:53,799 Speaker 2: finish games? Can you give your quarterback a chance? They 1090 00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:56,640 Speaker 2: scored the touchdown yesterday with over ten minutes to go 1091 00:51:56,719 --> 00:52:00,680 Speaker 2: where Browning actually completes a pass to his best tacklers, Chase. 1092 00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:04,080 Speaker 2: So it's twenty eight to seventeen. They're in the game. Yeah, 1093 00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:06,520 Speaker 2: they don't have great chances of winning the game, but 1094 00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:09,319 Speaker 2: they're in it. They're down by two scores, they've got 1095 00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:12,400 Speaker 2: a measure of momentum, they've got more than ten minutes. 1096 00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:16,320 Speaker 2: They need a stop. All off season as we're hearing 1097 00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:18,959 Speaker 2: about how great Al Golden's gonna do with all these 1098 00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:22,080 Speaker 2: crappy players from last year, and I'm hearing about how 1099 00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:24,560 Speaker 2: just gotta be a league average, just gotta be a 1100 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:27,760 Speaker 2: league average. Well, right there, I need better than league average, 1101 00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:30,560 Speaker 2: right there, I need a stop or a turnover. What 1102 00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:35,359 Speaker 2: did I get? Eight plays, sixty eight yards a five 1103 00:52:35,440 --> 00:52:38,839 Speaker 2: minute drive that ended the game. So miss me with 1104 00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:42,080 Speaker 2: this league average stuff, Miss me with how great Al 1105 00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:44,799 Speaker 2: Golden's gonna do with the same guys. Because with the 1106 00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:47,560 Speaker 2: game and the season hanging in the balance in the 1107 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:49,879 Speaker 2: fourth quarter yesterday, that didn't happen. 1108 00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:53,120 Speaker 7: Ye, they're poorly coached and they're a bad roster. Special 1109 00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:56,360 Speaker 7: teams has been bad. Defense has been bad. You mentioned 1110 00:52:56,400 --> 00:52:59,360 Speaker 7: that drive. It wasn't like they like Detroit converted a 1111 00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:01,919 Speaker 7: bunch of third law. They never got to thurn down. 1112 00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:05,040 Speaker 7: It was anything Detroit wanted to do. It felt mo 1113 00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:08,839 Speaker 7: like a team playing in a preseason game. 1114 00:53:09,080 --> 00:53:09,439 Speaker 2: It did. 1115 00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 7: It felt like, hey, let's work on this, let's work 1116 00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:14,400 Speaker 7: on that. We're not showing anything. Yeah, we're not putting 1117 00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:17,439 Speaker 7: anything on that. Is that the excuse me doing that one? 1118 00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:19,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, don't want to put anything on film that the 1119 00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:22,080 Speaker 2: Packers can study, Like here was that drive? 1120 00:53:22,200 --> 00:53:27,560 Speaker 7: Yes, Detroit was probably the worst defense you've seen to 1121 00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:31,120 Speaker 7: this point. Good offen, but you don't offer any resistance. 1122 00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:35,439 Speaker 7: Bad matchup with all It is a Monree Saint Brown 1123 00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:38,720 Speaker 7: seven yards, Saint Brown twenty six yards. Then David mcgoty 1124 00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:40,919 Speaker 7: the way on the twenty six yarder camp Taylor Brook 1125 00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:42,400 Speaker 7: was about eight yards off in coverage. 1126 00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:45,879 Speaker 2: Correct six yard run, five yard run, nine yard run, 1127 00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:48,640 Speaker 2: one yard run on second and one where you knew 1128 00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:50,759 Speaker 2: who was getting in and what they were going to do. 1129 00:53:51,360 --> 00:53:53,319 Speaker 7: Then, just that's what I was be able to do. 1130 00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:55,439 Speaker 7: If the defense knows what you're gonna do, you should 1131 00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:56,200 Speaker 7: be able to stop. 1132 00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:58,279 Speaker 2: It, right, And then a two yard run in Jared 1133 00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:01,760 Speaker 2: Goff's touchdown pass which ended the game. So like right there, 1134 00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:06,480 Speaker 2: right there, this Hey, we're bringing all the same guys back. Defense, 1135 00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:10,480 Speaker 2: Al Golden's gonna figure it out. Didn't didn't, So miss 1136 00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:13,680 Speaker 2: me with this defense wasn't that bad yesterday because when 1137 00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:16,399 Speaker 2: they needed the defense to step up they couldn't, which 1138 00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:19,040 Speaker 2: it couldn't last year, which it hasn't in any big 1139 00:54:19,080 --> 00:54:22,760 Speaker 2: situation this year. If Brian Thomas doesn't drop that pass 1140 00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:25,240 Speaker 2: in the Jacksonville game, the defense fails. 1141 00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:25,480 Speaker 6: There. 1142 00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:28,680 Speaker 2: The defense kind of helped Cleveland stay around. Like I 1143 00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:33,400 Speaker 2: just it's the roster. The roster is so bad. I 1144 00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:36,319 Speaker 2: can't name more than three guys I want on next 1145 00:54:36,360 --> 00:54:39,840 Speaker 2: year's team. And the frustrating thing is we sat around 1146 00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:44,040 Speaker 2: all off season as Duke Tobin willingly shrugged his shoulders 1147 00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:48,279 Speaker 2: and said, can't do anything. Okay, too busy, Jamar and 1148 00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:51,280 Speaker 2: t like where we're at. We'll get the same crappy 1149 00:54:51,320 --> 00:54:54,680 Speaker 2: players to a new defensive coordinator and expect different results. 1150 00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:57,320 Speaker 7: Yeah, they used their first two draft picks on defense, 1151 00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:00,680 Speaker 7: like they they made those moves on the defense and 1152 00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:03,680 Speaker 7: then drafted two early defensive players to say, because you 1153 00:55:03,680 --> 00:55:07,120 Speaker 7: couldn't draft rut Ledge Ratlets from Georgia. Who starts for 1154 00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:09,439 Speaker 7: the Lions. By the way, I watched that game. I've 1155 00:55:09,440 --> 00:55:11,160 Speaker 7: watched three Lions games this year. 1156 00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:11,279 Speaker 2: Mo. 1157 00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:13,880 Speaker 6: That wasn't their a offense yesterday. 1158 00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:17,279 Speaker 7: I watched games where they motion and they shift, and 1159 00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:20,719 Speaker 7: they used Gibbs and Montgomery and Saint Brown. They were 1160 00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:23,920 Speaker 7: as vanilla as I've ever watched them b Yesterday. They 1161 00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:27,399 Speaker 7: showed nothing, and when they needed to do it, they 1162 00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:30,160 Speaker 7: dominated up and down the field when they needed it 1163 00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:34,520 Speaker 7: the most. Campbell wasn't aggressive on fourth downs, he wasn't 1164 00:55:34,520 --> 00:55:37,800 Speaker 7: empty in the playbook. That was as basic a Lions 1165 00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:41,520 Speaker 7: game plan as you'll see. And they still, whenever they 1166 00:55:41,560 --> 00:55:45,480 Speaker 7: wanted to, did whatever they wanted to against this Bengals defense, 1167 00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:48,040 Speaker 7: as every other offense is going to continue to do. 1168 00:55:48,440 --> 00:55:51,279 Speaker 7: So don't worry about matchups, because here's what's gonna be. 1169 00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:54,480 Speaker 7: Christian Watson's coming back for Green Bay this week. Josh Jacobs, 1170 00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:57,800 Speaker 7: that's a tough matchup with Jordan Love, Aaron Rodgers and 1171 00:55:58,040 --> 00:56:01,280 Speaker 7: Pittsburgh always a pesky matchup. Well, here come the Jets, 1172 00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:03,080 Speaker 7: and I know they don't have a win, but man, 1173 00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:06,800 Speaker 7: justin fields and and Breese Hall, they can create some problems. 1174 00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:10,160 Speaker 7: Have you seen the Patriots with Drake May that's a quarterback. 1175 00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:12,520 Speaker 7: Now that's gonna give some some problems to a lot 1176 00:56:12,520 --> 00:56:15,360 Speaker 7: of people. Everyone will be a badge for this defense. 1177 00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:19,520 Speaker 7: Why because the players on the defense stink. The players stink, 1178 00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:22,359 Speaker 7: and the one player that doesn't stink can't play more 1179 00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:23,760 Speaker 7: than sixty percent of the snaps. 1180 00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:25,960 Speaker 6: But he's in such. 1181 00:56:25,800 --> 00:56:30,080 Speaker 7: Good shape he's ready to go win. Shamar Stewart's not able. 1182 00:56:30,120 --> 00:56:35,400 Speaker 7: If Shamar's healthy and you're rotating, fine, you're shorthanded. Max 1183 00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:40,400 Speaker 7: Murphy Miles Murphy played thirteen snaps, Cam Sample played twenty. 1184 00:56:41,160 --> 00:56:43,359 Speaker 7: That's your best option to run out there when when 1185 00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:46,440 Speaker 7: you need to stop. Because the drive that you're alluding to, 1186 00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:49,879 Speaker 7: Hendrickson was on the sidelines. He came off the field 1187 00:56:49,960 --> 00:56:52,319 Speaker 7: once to get his hand looked at, and they just 1188 00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:52,960 Speaker 7: kept ten. 1189 00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:53,400 Speaker 6: On the field. 1190 00:56:54,160 --> 00:56:57,960 Speaker 7: Had to take another time out twelve one week ten 1191 00:56:58,040 --> 00:57:00,400 Speaker 7: the week, Oh, the Bengals don't have enough players on 1192 00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:03,360 Speaker 7: the field, and with the game hanging out the balance 1193 00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:07,200 Speaker 7: with the games laughable hanging in the balance. So to me, 1194 00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:12,440 Speaker 7: Jake Browning is an awesome meat shield because I expect 1195 00:57:12,520 --> 00:57:14,319 Speaker 7: Jake Browning to play poorly, like I do. 1196 00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:17,960 Speaker 2: He's a backup quarterback. My standards aren't that high. I 1197 00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:21,600 Speaker 2: do expect a defense with a bunch of dudes that 1198 00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:24,400 Speaker 2: Duke Tobin has looked at and said, I want them 1199 00:57:24,440 --> 00:57:26,760 Speaker 2: to be a part of the turnaround. I expect that 1200 00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:30,400 Speaker 2: unit to play better. I expect the defense to elevate 1201 00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:34,400 Speaker 2: the crappy backup quarterback. It can so just it can't. 1202 00:57:34,280 --> 00:57:35,880 Speaker 7: Just add to the list of draft picks now. So 1203 00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:38,959 Speaker 7: Miles Murphy thirteen snap, We're done on him? Yeah, former 1204 00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:41,560 Speaker 7: first round pick. Another one's gone right, Cam Taylor Britt 1205 00:57:42,080 --> 00:57:43,600 Speaker 7: done seen enough? 1206 00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:45,080 Speaker 2: How many more times do you get benched? 1207 00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:47,360 Speaker 6: I don't. I'm with you. 1208 00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:50,280 Speaker 7: I hope Demetrius Knight's the guy. I hope Shamar Stuart's 1209 00:57:50,280 --> 00:57:55,600 Speaker 7: the guy. It's too early to tell who else, and 1210 00:57:55,640 --> 00:57:58,160 Speaker 7: it is we're talking a couple of weeks ago that 1211 00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:01,000 Speaker 7: Logan Wilson said he was gonna get a snap count 1212 00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:03,040 Speaker 7: taken away, and now he's playing one hundred percent of 1213 00:58:03,040 --> 00:58:09,440 Speaker 7: the snaps. The personnel, the usage. Nothing makes sense. And 1214 00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:11,080 Speaker 7: as bad as that is, Moan, I know we'll get 1215 00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:14,000 Speaker 7: into it. Not even the worst I saw yesterday because 1216 00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:14,920 Speaker 7: we're gonna talk about. 1217 00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:16,760 Speaker 6: A flea flicker at some point today. 1218 00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:18,880 Speaker 2: We're gonna talk about a flea flicker, and we're gonna 1219 00:58:18,920 --> 00:58:20,880 Speaker 2: talk about whatever it is they were doing at the 1220 00:58:20,920 --> 00:58:23,720 Speaker 2: end of the first half. Oh, twenty four minutes after 1221 00:58:23,720 --> 00:58:24,200 Speaker 2: four o'clock. 1222 00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:28,800 Speaker 7: That'll get me in a better mood. You gotta do 1223 00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:30,400 Speaker 7: some reading on the break. Let's get to a break. 1224 00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:32,040 Speaker 2: You've got some reading there to do. Yeah, let me 1225 00:58:32,960 --> 00:58:36,480 Speaker 2: all about it.

I'm a 1315 01:02:50,960 --> 01:02:56,280 Speaker 2: little bit. I'm cautiously optimistic. Yes, I saw them melt 1316 01:02:56,360 --> 01:02:58,000 Speaker 2: down at the end of the season last year. Like, 1317 01:02:58,080 --> 01:03:00,600 Speaker 2: I get it.

Can you explain to me what 1414 01:07:38,760 --> 01:07:40,840 Speaker 2: the Bengals were doing at the end of the first half. 1415 01:07:41,360 --> 01:07:46,320 Speaker 2: Down fourteen to nothing. They have the football, they are driving. 1416 01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:49,160 Speaker 7: Yeah, and I'm sure you're thinking what I am, which 1417 01:07:49,200 --> 01:07:54,360 Speaker 7: is all right, get seven right, double dip, double dip, 1418 01:07:54,400 --> 01:07:56,080 Speaker 7: get the ball to start the third quarter. 1419 01:07:56,480 --> 01:07:58,960 Speaker 2: But you need seven there, you're not gonna get field goals. 1420 01:07:59,440 --> 01:08:02,520 Speaker 2: They run a play with forty seven seconds to go. 1421 01:08:03,360 --> 01:08:05,800 Speaker 2: They gain ten yards on a third and fourteen, so 1422 01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:08,680 Speaker 2: they're now at the Detroit thirty two. They have two timeouts. 1423 01:08:09,240 --> 01:08:13,360 Speaker 2: The offense stays on the field and pretty much stands there. 1424 01:08:13,720 --> 01:08:15,840 Speaker 2: Now this is after they take a delay of game 1425 01:08:16,840 --> 01:08:19,400 Speaker 2: before the third and fourth two thirty nine, So they 1426 01:08:19,400 --> 01:08:23,120 Speaker 2: take a delay a game with two timeouts, game ten yards. 1427 01:08:23,680 --> 01:08:26,400 Speaker 2: It's fourth and four from the thirty two. Now, in 1428 01:08:26,479 --> 01:08:29,040 Speaker 2: my thinking, you're not beating the Lions by kicking a 1429 01:08:29,040 --> 01:08:33,880 Speaker 2: field goal. You need seven. The offense stands there. They 1430 01:08:34,240 --> 01:08:36,960 Speaker 2: finally let the clock go down to three, they call 1431 01:08:37,080 --> 01:08:39,080 Speaker 2: time out. They kick the field goal. Fourteen to three. 1432 01:08:39,120 --> 01:08:39,720 Speaker 2: What are we doing. 1433 01:08:39,800 --> 01:08:43,000 Speaker 7: I've got Jamar Chase, I've got t Higgins, I've got 1434 01:08:43,080 --> 01:08:45,000 Speaker 7: forty nine seconds and two timeouts. 1435 01:08:45,320 --> 01:08:48,160 Speaker 6: I'm going for it. Season's unraveling. 1436 01:08:49,479 --> 01:08:52,519 Speaker 7: We talked about this with the decision last week on 1437 01:08:52,800 --> 01:08:55,000 Speaker 7: fourth and two to kick the field goal against Denver. 1438 01:08:55,880 --> 01:08:59,280 Speaker 7: You will not beat the Lions kicking field goals. 1439 01:09:00,080 --> 01:09:04,000 Speaker 6: You won't. You won't beat any good team kicking field goals. 1440 01:09:04,520 --> 01:09:05,160 Speaker 6: I don't know, mo. 1441 01:09:05,880 --> 01:09:07,920 Speaker 7: I watched it back today. You couldn't have more of 1442 01:09:07,920 --> 01:09:11,360 Speaker 7: a lack of urgency on the third and nine. And 1443 01:09:11,400 --> 01:09:13,679 Speaker 7: in today's football, you know the play clock's running down. 1444 01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:16,280 Speaker 6: Take the timeout right two? You got two? 1445 01:09:16,360 --> 01:09:19,719 Speaker 7: Yeah, when you don't take it now the third and fourteen. 1446 01:09:19,760 --> 01:09:24,960 Speaker 7: I broke this down earlier today. If a accurate slant 1447 01:09:24,960 --> 01:09:28,240 Speaker 7: has thrown to andre Josi Vash, he probably scores the 1448 01:09:28,280 --> 01:09:30,400 Speaker 7: ball starne so far behind him, it's a catch and tackle. 1449 01:09:31,040 --> 01:09:33,559 Speaker 7: I am running up to the line of scrimmage, or 1450 01:09:33,600 --> 01:09:36,120 Speaker 7: I'm calling the timeout and I'm going to go try 1451 01:09:36,160 --> 01:09:39,120 Speaker 7: to convert the fourth down and score a touchdown. Middle 1452 01:09:39,120 --> 01:09:41,760 Speaker 7: of the field still open because you got timeouts, so 1453 01:09:41,800 --> 01:09:44,400 Speaker 7: you're not just limiting yourself to a shot, you know, 1454 01:09:44,439 --> 01:09:47,280 Speaker 7: a hail Mary type play. You had a legit chance 1455 01:09:47,280 --> 01:09:49,040 Speaker 7: to run four or five more plays in the half, 1456 01:09:49,280 --> 01:09:52,479 Speaker 7: and instead you'll let the clock run down. And you 1457 01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:56,200 Speaker 7: took the three and then you went back to Jake 1458 01:09:56,240 --> 01:09:58,120 Speaker 7: Browning in the third quarter and do an interception. 1459 01:09:58,240 --> 01:09:58,760 Speaker 6: The game was over. 1460 01:09:58,800 --> 01:10:02,320 Speaker 2: Then, at twenty eight to three, the Bengals got the 1461 01:10:02,360 --> 01:10:04,599 Speaker 2: ball back at their own twenty seven yard line. Now, 1462 01:10:04,640 --> 01:10:08,960 Speaker 2: admittedly you're down by twenty five points, but there's still 1463 01:10:10,120 --> 01:10:14,439 Speaker 2: twenty minutes to go in the game. It's unlikely, Yeah, 1464 01:10:14,479 --> 01:10:17,839 Speaker 2: it's very unlikely. But you're keeping your first team offense 1465 01:10:17,880 --> 01:10:21,680 Speaker 2: out there. If you didn't know the score, if you 1466 01:10:21,720 --> 01:10:23,759 Speaker 2: didn't know who was winning the game, and you watched 1467 01:10:23,800 --> 01:10:26,960 Speaker 2: that drive which did end in a touchdown Jamar Chase 1468 01:10:27,280 --> 01:10:29,920 Speaker 2: on a really nice scramble play by Jake Browning where 1469 01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:31,720 Speaker 2: he got out of trouble found Jamar Chase who made 1470 01:10:31,760 --> 01:10:35,760 Speaker 2: a nice catch. The problem is the drive took. From 1471 01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:38,559 Speaker 2: looking at this year, the drive took nearly six minutes. Yeah, 1472 01:10:38,560 --> 01:10:41,719 Speaker 2: they were huddling. Yep, they were huddling with the clock running. 1473 01:10:41,800 --> 01:10:42,280 Speaker 6: No hurry. 1474 01:10:42,680 --> 01:10:44,840 Speaker 2: They come out of the huddle and they used pretty 1475 01:10:44,920 --> 01:10:46,240 Speaker 2: much the entire play clock. 1476 01:10:46,720 --> 01:10:50,920 Speaker 6: How baffling. Baffling. I don't know what you're working on. 1477 01:10:51,320 --> 01:10:52,439 Speaker 6: I don't know what you're doing, but. 1478 01:10:52,520 --> 01:10:55,639 Speaker 2: You would think that they were up twenty five trying 1479 01:10:55,640 --> 01:10:57,200 Speaker 2: to kill as much clock as possible. 1480 01:10:57,320 --> 01:11:00,400 Speaker 7: But if you listen MO post game, I thought this 1481 01:11:00,560 --> 01:11:04,320 Speaker 7: was like an AI thing. Zach Taylor claims that had 1482 01:11:04,320 --> 01:11:05,599 Speaker 7: they got that onside, they'd have won. 1483 01:11:06,280 --> 01:11:07,599 Speaker 2: Zach Taylor's out of his mind. 1484 01:11:07,960 --> 01:11:10,200 Speaker 6: If they had just got the onside, You know what 1485 01:11:10,240 --> 01:11:11,040 Speaker 6: this team's capable of. 1486 01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:14,600 Speaker 2: That is that the excuse is that week's excuse. 1487 01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:15,960 Speaker 7: Thought they had a chance to get it. Have we 1488 01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:18,519 Speaker 7: stumbled upon it that they just got the onside that 1489 01:11:20,040 --> 01:11:22,839 Speaker 7: I thought it was an AI video because I'm like, surely, 1490 01:11:22,880 --> 01:11:25,519 Speaker 7: there's no way he just said that. And by the way, 1491 01:11:25,520 --> 01:11:26,880 Speaker 7: it didn't even burn his last time out at the 1492 01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:29,000 Speaker 7: end of the game to make them run another play. 1493 01:11:29,040 --> 01:11:31,800 Speaker 7: But if they'd got that onside kick, things were changed. 1494 01:11:31,800 --> 01:11:35,720 Speaker 7: But everything we've discussed MO fails in comparison to I 1495 01:11:35,720 --> 01:11:38,080 Speaker 7: think Pops possibly the call of the year at this moment. 1496 01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:41,559 Speaker 7: How many undercenter runs have the Bengals hit so far? 1497 01:11:41,880 --> 01:11:42,200 Speaker 2: None? 1498 01:11:42,320 --> 01:11:43,479 Speaker 6: None, zero. 1499 01:11:44,200 --> 01:11:46,680 Speaker 7: They did not run the ball under center once, and 1500 01:11:46,760 --> 01:11:49,840 Speaker 7: yet just under twelve minutes left in the game, twenty 1501 01:11:49,880 --> 01:11:52,840 Speaker 7: eight to ten under center. 1502 01:11:55,240 --> 01:11:55,880 Speaker 6: Flea flicker. 1503 01:11:58,640 --> 01:12:00,800 Speaker 7: Let me explain, first of all, if you aren't aware 1504 01:12:00,800 --> 01:12:03,559 Speaker 7: of what the flee flicker's meant to do. It's meant 1505 01:12:03,720 --> 01:12:07,240 Speaker 7: to show a run have the safety and linebackers bite up. 1506 01:12:07,280 --> 01:12:08,360 Speaker 2: It's the ultimate play action. 1507 01:12:08,439 --> 01:12:09,519 Speaker 6: It's the ultimate play action. 1508 01:12:10,000 --> 01:12:12,120 Speaker 7: Normally, when you run a flee flicker, you're doing so 1509 01:12:12,640 --> 01:12:16,400 Speaker 7: because you're beating them in the run game. Like had 1510 01:12:16,479 --> 01:12:20,559 Speaker 7: Brendan Soresby thrown a flee flicker on Saturday, I'm okay, 1511 01:12:21,360 --> 01:12:25,280 Speaker 7: because they have been dominating on the ground. The Bengals 1512 01:12:25,320 --> 01:12:28,360 Speaker 7: had not run the ball under center, But are you 1513 01:12:28,479 --> 01:12:31,679 Speaker 7: expecting them to run the ball when they're down eighteen. 1514 01:12:32,720 --> 01:12:32,880 Speaker 5: No. 1515 01:12:33,000 --> 01:12:36,560 Speaker 7: It's the worst timed flee flicker in the history of football. 1516 01:12:37,240 --> 01:12:39,400 Speaker 7: And Orlando Brown Junior must have not have got the 1517 01:12:39,920 --> 01:12:42,320 Speaker 7: memo that on a flee flicker you have to block 1518 01:12:42,360 --> 01:12:46,160 Speaker 7: for more than one second, because he made the laziest 1519 01:12:46,160 --> 01:12:47,280 Speaker 7: block he's made all year. 1520 01:12:47,720 --> 01:12:51,240 Speaker 6: Jake Browning gets annihilated. Orlando Brown Junior, though. 1521 01:12:51,520 --> 01:12:53,559 Speaker 7: Does get a plus because he was in great position 1522 01:12:53,600 --> 01:12:57,000 Speaker 7: to recover the fumble, So that's good for Jake Browning. 1523 01:12:57,479 --> 01:12:59,519 Speaker 7: It is a failure on so many levels. Why are 1524 01:12:59,520 --> 01:13:01,519 Speaker 7: you calling a flee flicker when you haven't established a 1525 01:13:01,560 --> 01:13:03,840 Speaker 7: run game, and why at that point in the game, 1526 01:13:04,200 --> 01:13:06,320 Speaker 7: and why when your left tackle is I mean we 1527 01:13:06,360 --> 01:13:09,519 Speaker 7: had media today was asking Zach Taylor is Orlando Brown 1528 01:13:09,600 --> 01:13:10,480 Speaker 7: Junior compromised? 1529 01:13:10,920 --> 01:13:11,400 Speaker 2: Is he hurt? 1530 01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:14,360 Speaker 7: And Zach has no idea what he's talking. He can't 1531 01:13:14,400 --> 01:13:18,280 Speaker 7: block anyone right now. He throw on a tackle pool 1532 01:13:18,320 --> 01:13:23,240 Speaker 7: a couple times and didn't explode through. He plays retreating 1533 01:13:24,200 --> 01:13:26,120 Speaker 7: and then you're gonna ask him to block Adon Hutchinson 1534 01:13:26,120 --> 01:13:29,080 Speaker 7: on a flee flicker. I don't know what they're doing 1535 01:13:29,680 --> 01:13:32,200 Speaker 7: and what they're calling. It makes no sense. 1536 01:13:32,680 --> 01:13:36,719 Speaker 2: Zach Taylor is a very nice man. With three minutes 1537 01:13:36,760 --> 01:13:40,000 Speaker 2: and five seconds to go, it was thirty five to 1538 01:13:40,000 --> 01:13:43,680 Speaker 2: twenty four in favor of Detroit. Had they recovered the 1539 01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:46,439 Speaker 2: on side kick, they're winning. The odds of the Bengals 1540 01:13:46,439 --> 01:13:50,439 Speaker 2: winning that game were still improblem They're winning because they 1541 01:13:50,479 --> 01:13:53,080 Speaker 2: need to score, whether it's a touchdown and a two 1542 01:13:53,120 --> 01:13:56,800 Speaker 2: point conversion or the field goal, then convert another on 1543 01:13:56,920 --> 01:14:01,080 Speaker 2: the head kick, and then I get it. They Jake 1544 01:14:01,120 --> 01:14:03,400 Speaker 2: Browning played well in garbage time in the fourth quarter. 1545 01:14:04,960 --> 01:14:09,240 Speaker 2: I am gonna call absolute bs on that. There is 1546 01:14:09,360 --> 01:14:12,479 Speaker 2: no way in hell that Zach Taylor actually believed with 1547 01:14:12,520 --> 01:14:15,600 Speaker 2: three minutes to go, if we just make this on 1548 01:14:15,760 --> 01:14:18,120 Speaker 2: side kick work, that we're going to win the game. 1549 01:14:18,200 --> 01:14:19,880 Speaker 7: He said something along the line, We've had so many 1550 01:14:19,920 --> 01:14:23,080 Speaker 7: games where things were bleak and and we just find 1551 01:14:23,080 --> 01:14:24,439 Speaker 7: a way to pull through. If we'd have got that 1552 01:14:24,479 --> 01:14:26,240 Speaker 7: on side, we were what that's. 1553 01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:29,200 Speaker 2: Not remotely true. What things were bleak against the Minnesota 1554 01:14:29,280 --> 01:14:31,599 Speaker 2: Vikings to the tune of a forty eight to three deficit. 1555 01:14:32,320 --> 01:14:34,920 Speaker 2: Things were so bleak against the Denver Broncos that it 1556 01:14:34,960 --> 01:14:36,519 Speaker 2: was twenty eight to three and it felt like it 1557 01:14:36,560 --> 01:14:37,400 Speaker 2: was forty eight to three. 1558 01:14:37,479 --> 01:14:38,160 Speaker 6: Didn't pull through. 1559 01:14:38,200 --> 01:14:41,080 Speaker 2: They haven't pulled through at all. They barely pulled through 1560 01:14:41,120 --> 01:14:44,040 Speaker 2: against Cleveland, against Cleveland because their field goal kicker is 1561 01:14:44,080 --> 01:14:46,799 Speaker 2: no good. And they barely pulled through against Jacksonville because 1562 01:14:46,920 --> 01:14:49,880 Speaker 2: Brian Thomas dropped a pass and because the referee through 1563 01:14:50,640 --> 01:14:54,240 Speaker 2: a flag on that. Travis Hunter pi ye Like. They 1564 01:14:54,240 --> 01:14:57,240 Speaker 2: haven't pulled through. They have melted down. They have failed. 1565 01:14:58,040 --> 01:15:03,200 Speaker 7: So sorry, I if we if we can find an 1566 01:15:03,240 --> 01:15:06,600 Speaker 7: alternate universe where it's thirty four or thirty five to 1567 01:15:06,640 --> 01:15:09,280 Speaker 7: twenty four and the Bengals were covering on side kick 1568 01:15:09,320 --> 01:15:11,320 Speaker 7: with three minutes to go, and I can make a 1569 01:15:11,360 --> 01:15:13,160 Speaker 7: wager on whether or not the Bengals win. 1570 01:15:13,600 --> 01:15:15,160 Speaker 2: My money is on them not winning. 1571 01:15:15,280 --> 01:15:18,439 Speaker 7: If it's like a one score game. Sure, okay, the 1572 01:15:18,479 --> 01:15:23,240 Speaker 7: math is different. You're down two scores. I swear, in 1573 01:15:23,280 --> 01:15:26,160 Speaker 7: all honesty, I was scared to share it last night 1574 01:15:26,600 --> 01:15:28,120 Speaker 7: because I'm like, I've been got. 1575 01:15:27,880 --> 01:15:31,360 Speaker 6: By this before. Uh huh, this is AI. This isn't 1576 01:15:31,520 --> 01:15:32,519 Speaker 6: an actual quote. 1577 01:15:34,200 --> 01:15:36,120 Speaker 2: I'm reading it. I mean, it's there. I gotta be 1578 01:15:36,160 --> 01:15:39,000 Speaker 2: honest with you. I didn't hear that part of the 1579 01:15:39,040 --> 01:15:41,559 Speaker 2: press conference. Didn't really care much about what Zach Taylor 1580 01:15:41,600 --> 01:15:43,800 Speaker 2: had to say. I thought we were going to win 1581 01:15:43,840 --> 01:15:45,800 Speaker 2: the game when we were kicking the on side kick, 1582 01:15:45,840 --> 01:15:47,200 Speaker 2: but they recovered it there at the. 1583 01:15:47,280 --> 01:15:50,320 Speaker 7: End, which is normal with those onsides. If the other 1584 01:15:50,360 --> 01:15:52,280 Speaker 7: team recovers. 1585 01:15:51,840 --> 01:15:53,720 Speaker 2: On side kicks in the NFL have what a five 1586 01:15:53,720 --> 01:15:57,479 Speaker 2: percent success rate. So if we can convert this thing 1587 01:15:57,520 --> 01:16:00,439 Speaker 2: that works about five percent of the time, down by 1588 01:16:00,479 --> 01:16:03,320 Speaker 2: eleven points and we have to convert the on site 1589 01:16:03,400 --> 01:16:05,400 Speaker 2: kick again in order to get the ball back if 1590 01:16:05,439 --> 01:16:09,639 Speaker 2: we score, we're gonna win the game. Yep, I think 1591 01:16:09,680 --> 01:16:13,200 Speaker 2: I have my poll question. It's a twelve away from 1592 01:16:13,520 --> 01:16:15,760 Speaker 2: five o'clock.

Do 1614 01:17:26,920 --> 01:17:28,600 Speaker 7: you think that back to back on side kicks have 1615 01:17:28,680 --> 01:17:29,080 Speaker 7: ever been right? 1616 01:17:29,120 --> 01:17:33,080 Speaker 2: I'm sure it's happened. Yeah, I'm gonna guess maybe less 1617 01:17:33,120 --> 01:17:34,559 Speaker 2: than one percent, So do. 1618 01:17:36,120 --> 01:17:36,640 Speaker 6: Overdue. 1619 01:17:38,040 --> 01:17:43,840 Speaker 2: So I've asked, and I gotta like redo this because 1620 01:17:43,840 --> 01:17:45,679 Speaker 2: I screwed it up when I threw it out there. 1621 01:17:48,840 --> 01:17:56,400 Speaker 2: Do you share that opinion? Do you share the opinion 1622 01:17:56,479 --> 01:17:58,719 Speaker 2: that the Bengals would have won the football game. 1623 01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:01,559 Speaker 6: Just with. 1624 01:18:03,360 --> 01:18:07,960 Speaker 7: The ability to get that on sidekick. It's a different ballgame. 1625 01:18:08,840 --> 01:18:10,800 Speaker 2: I'm really I don't know if I'm happy that you've 1626 01:18:10,800 --> 01:18:11,839 Speaker 2: brought this to my attention. 1627 01:18:13,400 --> 01:18:16,280 Speaker 7: Like I said, I've been fooled too many times with 1628 01:18:16,439 --> 01:18:19,439 Speaker 7: fake like accounts on social media or AI stuff. 1629 01:18:19,479 --> 01:18:22,000 Speaker 6: Now, which drives me nuts. That's a real thing like that. 1630 01:18:22,000 --> 01:18:24,200 Speaker 6: That's I looked at it last night and I'm like, 1631 01:18:24,280 --> 01:18:25,920 Speaker 6: that is not that real. 1632 01:18:26,120 --> 01:18:29,240 Speaker 2: The Bengals have have put have put that on their website. 1633 01:18:29,280 --> 01:18:31,160 Speaker 2: Twitter is is not cooperating with. 1634 01:18:31,200 --> 01:18:33,759 Speaker 6: Poles, okay, but it was there. 1635 01:18:34,000 --> 01:18:36,280 Speaker 2: But it's yeah, I'm see now there it is. I 1636 01:18:36,320 --> 01:18:38,800 Speaker 2: click this. I'm building a pole right now as we 1637 01:18:38,880 --> 01:18:42,760 Speaker 2: speak on Twitter. Yeah, And you can vote as to 1638 01:18:42,760 --> 01:18:50,080 Speaker 2: whether or not you share that opinion. We got like 1639 01:18:50,120 --> 01:18:52,599 Speaker 2: three minutes here in the AFC North. Yesterday, the Browns 1640 01:18:52,640 --> 01:18:55,839 Speaker 2: go to London and lose with Dylan Gabriel playing quarterback 1641 01:18:55,880 --> 01:18:57,320 Speaker 2: to the Minnesota Vikings. 1642 01:18:57,640 --> 01:19:02,519 Speaker 7: I know they're not winning right now. Gabriel looked okay, Yeah, 1643 01:19:02,800 --> 01:19:07,719 Speaker 7: Quinchawn Judkins looks good, Hannon at tight end looks good. 1644 01:19:08,240 --> 01:19:12,920 Speaker 7: Their rookie class looks really good. It's not gonna happen 1645 01:19:12,960 --> 01:19:17,559 Speaker 7: this year. I think if you were to ask me 1646 01:19:18,880 --> 01:19:21,920 Speaker 7: which team has more pieces to build around next. 1647 01:19:21,800 --> 01:19:22,919 Speaker 6: Year, it might be Cleveland. 1648 01:19:23,760 --> 01:19:26,879 Speaker 7: I think I agree, like top end talent, the Bencans 1649 01:19:26,920 --> 01:19:29,600 Speaker 7: have it right, but more pieces to say, we absolutely 1650 01:19:29,640 --> 01:19:30,720 Speaker 7: have to build around these guys. 1651 01:19:30,760 --> 01:19:31,600 Speaker 6: I think Cleveland has it. 1652 01:19:32,720 --> 01:19:35,520 Speaker 2: What do we make of the Baltimore Ravens, who defensively 1653 01:19:35,600 --> 01:19:39,000 Speaker 2: have been bad all year long. Obviously didn't have Lamar Jackson. 1654 01:19:39,400 --> 01:19:40,479 Speaker 2: They at home. 1655 01:19:40,360 --> 01:19:42,800 Speaker 6: Get Johnson, no Humphrey. 1656 01:19:43,840 --> 01:19:46,400 Speaker 2: They get smoked by the Texans forty four to ten. 1657 01:19:47,120 --> 01:19:49,479 Speaker 2: C J Sprow just a few days saying he felt 1658 01:19:49,479 --> 01:19:50,759 Speaker 2: like he was basically my age. 1659 01:19:50,840 --> 01:19:54,400 Speaker 7: Yeah, looked like he did two years ago. I would 1660 01:19:54,400 --> 01:19:58,280 Speaker 7: be worried about them because of the defense. I would 1661 01:19:58,280 --> 01:20:00,519 Speaker 7: have to see how well Lamar plays and coming back. 1662 01:20:00,560 --> 01:20:01,960 Speaker 7: I was fascinated today. 1663 01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:02,080 Speaker 2: Mo. 1664 01:20:02,520 --> 01:20:03,879 Speaker 6: We talked about this over the break. 1665 01:20:04,520 --> 01:20:08,479 Speaker 7: Right now, Baltimore is still the odds on favorite in 1666 01:20:08,520 --> 01:20:12,880 Speaker 7: the AFC North. They're minus one zh five. Pittsburgh is 1667 01:20:12,920 --> 01:20:16,800 Speaker 7: plus one ten or one thirty. Bengals and Browns over 1668 01:20:16,840 --> 01:20:22,200 Speaker 7: plus one thousand. Obviously, people still believe in them. I 1669 01:20:22,240 --> 01:20:24,519 Speaker 7: don't know who that defense is stopping right now, agreed, 1670 01:20:25,479 --> 01:20:26,840 Speaker 7: I think it's Pittsburgh's division. 1671 01:20:26,880 --> 01:20:29,280 Speaker 2: Well, they don't play Jake Browning for like a month 1672 01:20:29,320 --> 01:20:29,799 Speaker 2: and a half. 1673 01:20:30,479 --> 01:20:35,439 Speaker 7: Okay, by then, they'll probably figure some stuff out, and 1674 01:20:35,479 --> 01:20:38,439 Speaker 7: Pittsburgh gets to play against Jake Browning maybe in two weeks. 1675 01:20:38,439 --> 01:20:40,559 Speaker 2: Well, but here's the thing, Pittsburgh. The next two games 1676 01:20:40,600 --> 01:20:44,280 Speaker 2: are home for Cleveland at Cincinnati, So while the Ravens 1677 01:20:44,280 --> 01:20:46,320 Speaker 2: are trying to figure stuff out, the Steelers are going 1678 01:20:46,400 --> 01:20:48,760 Speaker 2: to be their huge favorites at home against Cleveland. They'll 1679 01:20:48,760 --> 01:20:51,479 Speaker 2: be big favorites here a week from Thursday. Yep, So 1680 01:20:51,720 --> 01:20:53,519 Speaker 2: say which one about him? I'm not sure how good 1681 01:20:53,560 --> 01:20:55,840 Speaker 2: they are. They haven't won a game by more than 1682 01:20:55,880 --> 01:20:57,880 Speaker 2: seven points. Frankly, I think they should have lost to 1683 01:20:57,920 --> 01:21:00,960 Speaker 2: New England. But they've they've got a chance to put 1684 01:21:00,960 --> 01:21:03,720 Speaker 2: some some room between this separation everybody. 1685 01:21:03,360 --> 01:21:06,720 Speaker 7: Else, and it just makes we dealt with it over 1686 01:21:06,720 --> 01:21:08,200 Speaker 7: the second half of the year. Last year because of 1687 01:21:08,240 --> 01:21:10,400 Speaker 7: how poor the start was, it makes every game that 1688 01:21:10,520 --> 01:21:14,439 Speaker 7: much more stressful because you start off so poorly. That's 1689 01:21:14,479 --> 01:21:16,320 Speaker 7: now what the Baltimore Ravens have to contect with. 1690 01:21:16,439 --> 01:21:18,759 Speaker 2: Many believe the Bengals need to hit the reset button. 1691 01:21:18,840 --> 01:21:20,680 Speaker 2: Let's talk about that when we come back.

You know we got 1732 01:23:25,600 --> 01:23:27,840 Speaker 2: like hot fud Sundays here last year, so might do 1733 01:23:27,880 --> 01:23:31,439 Speaker 2: that again. Skillet, great bourbon selection, cold beer, you name it, 1734 01:23:31,479 --> 01:23:33,600 Speaker 2: They've got it here at Twin Peaks in Westchester, this 1735 01:23:33,720 --> 01:23:37,479 Speaker 2: location right off the Union Center Boulevard exit off I 1736 01:23:37,680 --> 01:23:41,479 Speaker 2: seventy five. On an NFL Sunday where we had five 1737 01:23:41,600 --> 01:23:45,760 Speaker 2: teams come back from down ten points Tennessee. The Panthers 1738 01:23:46,600 --> 01:23:49,559 Speaker 2: Denver overcomes a fourteen point deficit to give Philadelphia it's 1739 01:23:49,600 --> 01:23:53,080 Speaker 2: first loss. New Orleans overcomes an eleven point deficit Washington 1740 01:23:53,120 --> 01:23:56,719 Speaker 2: to ten point deficit. The Bengals could not. They fall 1741 01:23:56,800 --> 01:24:00,559 Speaker 2: to the Detroit Lions yesterday thirty seven to twenty four. 1742 01:24:00,800 --> 01:24:01,400 Speaker 2: Let me do this. 1743 01:24:01,640 --> 01:24:04,200 Speaker 7: You know what you mentioned that yesterday. One of the 1744 01:24:04,240 --> 01:24:06,320 Speaker 7: things that make what going on with the Bengals so 1745 01:24:06,400 --> 01:24:09,000 Speaker 7: much more frustrating. I just don't feel like there's an 1746 01:24:09,040 --> 01:24:12,760 Speaker 7: unbeatable AFC team Like I watched last night and I'm 1747 01:24:12,800 --> 01:24:17,280 Speaker 7: like Buffalo, okay, right, Kansas City, Baltimore is a mess, 1748 01:24:18,200 --> 01:24:21,160 Speaker 7: Like every AFC team that I thought going into the year, 1749 01:24:21,920 --> 01:24:23,280 Speaker 7: like there are teams in the NFC. 1750 01:24:23,080 --> 01:24:24,240 Speaker 6: I'd be like, I don't want to play that team. 1751 01:24:24,280 --> 01:24:26,920 Speaker 2: I still think Buffalo's really good. Yeah, I think that 1752 01:24:26,960 --> 01:24:30,200 Speaker 2: the Patriots are ascending. Baltimore looks like a mess right now. 1753 01:24:30,240 --> 01:24:33,080 Speaker 6: You want to just get ahead of bad matchup Patriots. 1754 01:24:32,560 --> 01:24:35,759 Speaker 2: Patriots, bad matchup. Yeah, that they played them later this season. 1755 01:24:36,200 --> 01:24:39,680 Speaker 2: You're right, the AFC is wide open, the AFC, Like, 1756 01:24:40,280 --> 01:24:44,080 Speaker 2: It's why so many of us clung to the idea 1757 01:24:44,160 --> 01:24:46,200 Speaker 2: that this team could still make the playoffs with Jake 1758 01:24:46,240 --> 01:24:48,759 Speaker 2: Browning in part you thought he was gonna play better. Yeah, 1759 01:24:48,800 --> 01:24:52,240 Speaker 2: but also you looked at the AFC, especially like the 1760 01:24:52,280 --> 01:24:53,679 Speaker 2: potential wildcard team. 1761 01:24:53,600 --> 01:24:56,479 Speaker 7: Like Denver Right thought the Chargers maybe in the last 1762 01:24:56,520 --> 01:24:58,439 Speaker 7: two weeks, stored about them. 1763 01:24:58,520 --> 01:24:58,720 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1764 01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:03,080 Speaker 6: It's just it's so open, right, it makes it even 1765 01:25:03,080 --> 01:25:03,880 Speaker 6: more frustrating. 1766 01:25:04,800 --> 01:25:08,200 Speaker 2: Let's talk about coaching for a second. So we talked 1767 01:25:08,240 --> 01:25:11,080 Speaker 2: about this a little bit before, specifically with Kyle Shanahan. 1768 01:25:11,120 --> 01:25:13,479 Speaker 2: Where they go on the road on a short week 1769 01:25:13,840 --> 01:25:18,560 Speaker 2: fairs hight football at LA good team. Mac Jones is 1770 01:25:18,560 --> 01:25:22,200 Speaker 2: playing quarterback. They have a ton of guys hurt and 1771 01:25:22,240 --> 01:25:26,360 Speaker 2: they piece together a game plan, they looked prepared, they execute, 1772 01:25:27,160 --> 01:25:30,080 Speaker 2: they win on the road. I see what Shane Stikeen 1773 01:25:30,200 --> 01:25:32,719 Speaker 2: is doing with Daniel Jones helps to have Jonathan Taylor 1774 01:25:32,840 --> 01:25:36,519 Speaker 2: to I'll admit that Daniel Jones, though, I see what 1775 01:25:36,600 --> 01:25:39,080 Speaker 2: Kevin O'Connell continues to do, a guy you think is 1776 01:25:39,080 --> 01:25:40,920 Speaker 2: the best coach in football, and it helps that he 1777 01:25:41,000 --> 01:25:44,880 Speaker 2: has a great defensive coordinator. I see these coaches who 1778 01:25:45,040 --> 01:25:48,479 Speaker 2: figure it out, like, it's not so much blame Zach 1779 01:25:48,560 --> 01:25:52,960 Speaker 2: Taylor for losing. It's not so much hold him accountable for, 1780 01:25:53,400 --> 01:25:56,599 Speaker 2: you know, winning or losing football games. What I've watched 1781 01:25:56,640 --> 01:25:59,840 Speaker 2: over the last three weeks is a coach who can't 1782 01:26:00,080 --> 01:26:02,599 Speaker 2: figure it out, who can't take what he has at 1783 01:26:02,600 --> 01:26:06,639 Speaker 2: his disposal and piece together something that gives his team 1784 01:26:06,640 --> 01:26:07,040 Speaker 2: a shot. 1785 01:26:07,240 --> 01:26:08,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, I see it around the league. 1786 01:26:08,960 --> 01:26:11,840 Speaker 7: Well, we were told Detroit they're gonna struggle, they lost 1787 01:26:11,880 --> 01:26:12,479 Speaker 7: Ben Johnson. 1788 01:26:12,560 --> 01:26:15,599 Speaker 6: Uh huh. We were told right, well, Tampa they're fun, 1789 01:26:15,920 --> 01:26:17,120 Speaker 6: but Liam Cohen's. 1790 01:26:16,800 --> 01:26:21,639 Speaker 7: Gone, uh huh, they're fun, they're well run, Their pieces 1791 01:26:21,760 --> 01:26:23,840 Speaker 7: match like it is. 1792 01:26:23,920 --> 01:26:25,160 Speaker 6: It's everywhere you watch. 1793 01:26:25,200 --> 01:26:27,360 Speaker 7: Every game you watch, there are teams where you're like, man, 1794 01:26:28,479 --> 01:26:31,840 Speaker 7: how are they doing that? Because here it's foreign feels 1795 01:26:31,880 --> 01:26:34,320 Speaker 7: foreign here. If you don't have everything land just how 1796 01:26:34,320 --> 01:26:37,680 Speaker 7: it has to be, and you're healthy, and the opponent's 1797 01:26:37,680 --> 01:26:39,600 Speaker 7: got a match to what you can do, and that 1798 01:26:39,760 --> 01:26:42,120 Speaker 7: you hope the opponent doesn't take stuff away. It's just 1799 01:26:42,720 --> 01:26:44,519 Speaker 7: so many things have to fall in or Burroughs just 1800 01:26:44,560 --> 01:26:45,439 Speaker 7: got to be elite. 1801 01:26:46,040 --> 01:26:47,200 Speaker 6: That's the only way they win. 1802 01:26:48,200 --> 01:26:51,559 Speaker 2: I said this to you yesterday. Red flag went up 1803 01:26:51,600 --> 01:26:55,320 Speaker 2: after Week one for me, Oh yeah, they played the Browns, 1804 01:26:55,520 --> 01:26:59,280 Speaker 2: They've won the game. Fine, But I watched a team 1805 01:26:59,320 --> 01:27:02,200 Speaker 2: that offen Lea that day looked at the Cleveland Browns 1806 01:27:02,240 --> 01:27:05,240 Speaker 2: and said, Okay, you don't want us to throw it 1807 01:27:05,240 --> 01:27:07,720 Speaker 2: to Jamar and t yep, that's cool, no problem. I 1808 01:27:07,760 --> 01:27:09,880 Speaker 2: watched the Vikings yesterday morning. You and I were at 1809 01:27:09,880 --> 01:27:13,040 Speaker 2: the Holy Rail, and I watched the Minnesota Vikings yesterday 1810 01:27:13,560 --> 01:27:17,160 Speaker 2: and in a good competitive game, the Vikings didn't say, oh, 1811 01:27:17,200 --> 01:27:19,680 Speaker 2: you don't want us to throw to Justin Jefferson, that's cool. No. 1812 01:27:19,760 --> 01:27:22,280 Speaker 2: They threw it to him seven times, including a couple 1813 01:27:22,320 --> 01:27:23,880 Speaker 2: of times on the drive where they win the game. 1814 01:27:23,880 --> 01:27:28,080 Speaker 2: He had one hundred and twenty three yards, so they 1815 01:27:28,160 --> 01:27:30,960 Speaker 2: won the game. And it was Week one, so you're 1816 01:27:31,000 --> 01:27:33,519 Speaker 2: just happy that they won. And it's Burrow, and nobody 1817 01:27:33,560 --> 01:27:36,960 Speaker 2: wants to criticize Joe Burrow. But I walked away from 1818 01:27:36,960 --> 01:27:39,880 Speaker 2: that game hearing about how bad of a matchup it was. Going. 1819 01:27:40,240 --> 01:27:43,920 Speaker 2: All right, I'll admit Cleveland's corners are good, But aren't 1820 01:27:43,920 --> 01:27:45,920 Speaker 2: you supposed to have the best group of skilled guys 1821 01:27:45,920 --> 01:27:48,040 Speaker 2: in the league. Aren't you supposed to have the best 1822 01:27:48,120 --> 01:27:51,479 Speaker 2: quarterback in the league? And yet you said that day, 1823 01:27:52,040 --> 01:27:53,920 Speaker 2: if the Browns don't want us to throw the ball 1824 01:27:53,960 --> 01:27:57,120 Speaker 2: outside the numbers, we won't. That is, to me, the 1825 01:27:57,160 --> 01:28:00,160 Speaker 2: antithesis of what really good, really well coached teams do, 1826 01:28:00,800 --> 01:28:04,559 Speaker 2: really well coached teams go, you got good corners, watch 1827 01:28:04,640 --> 01:28:07,720 Speaker 2: what we have. There was none of that that was 1828 01:28:07,800 --> 01:28:11,040 Speaker 2: with Joe Burrow. So if that's the case with Joe Burrow, 1829 01:28:11,320 --> 01:28:13,280 Speaker 2: why wouldn't it be the case with the quarterback who's 1830 01:28:13,280 --> 01:28:14,160 Speaker 2: nowhere near as good? 1831 01:28:14,280 --> 01:28:18,120 Speaker 7: Yeah, it to me is the reason I think this 1832 01:28:18,280 --> 01:28:23,640 Speaker 7: gets far worse before it gets any better. Like, how 1833 01:28:23,920 --> 01:28:26,280 Speaker 7: how do you navigate a path? Now again, say which 1834 01:28:26,320 --> 01:28:28,559 Speaker 7: one about matchups? How do you go into a green 1835 01:28:28,600 --> 01:28:29,920 Speaker 7: Bay and win? 1836 01:28:30,520 --> 01:28:32,800 Speaker 2: I have no idea fourteen and a half point dogs? 1837 01:28:32,800 --> 01:28:33,479 Speaker 6: How do you win at home? 1838 01:28:33,479 --> 01:28:36,760 Speaker 2: And get the Pittsburgh I have no idea. 1839 01:28:36,240 --> 01:28:39,679 Speaker 7: I'm gonna stop DK Metcalf and Aaron Rodgers. The longer 1840 01:28:39,680 --> 01:28:42,240 Speaker 7: they play, the better they're gonna get together. Every team's 1841 01:28:42,240 --> 01:28:44,920 Speaker 7: gonna present some issues. Yes, you know, by the time 1842 01:28:44,960 --> 01:28:47,439 Speaker 7: the Jets come around with Aaron Glenn, you're starting to 1843 01:28:47,479 --> 01:28:50,400 Speaker 7: have his inpunt on this team. They're starting to play tough, 1844 01:28:50,680 --> 01:28:53,439 Speaker 7: tough fall like you can make that case against ninety 1845 01:28:53,439 --> 01:28:56,439 Speaker 7: percent of the teams you play against. And in those 1846 01:28:56,479 --> 01:28:58,839 Speaker 7: games where you might not have the better skill players, 1847 01:28:59,400 --> 01:29:02,519 Speaker 7: you have to have better scheme in coaching. And if 1848 01:29:02,560 --> 01:29:04,439 Speaker 7: you don't have the better scheme in coaching, you have 1849 01:29:04,520 --> 01:29:08,920 Speaker 7: to have the better roster. They don't have either right now. 1850 01:29:09,360 --> 01:29:13,000 Speaker 7: Because of the way the roster has been constructed. They're 1851 01:29:13,000 --> 01:29:15,479 Speaker 7: going to go into most games now, especially without Burrow, 1852 01:29:16,280 --> 01:29:20,439 Speaker 7: with the worst roster, and most games we're gonna look 1853 01:29:20,479 --> 01:29:23,760 Speaker 7: back and say, this feels like a coaching mismatch, not 1854 01:29:23,840 --> 01:29:26,200 Speaker 7: in the bengals favor. So how do you win those games? 1855 01:29:26,439 --> 01:29:29,439 Speaker 2: Like did on Thursday night? Did the San Francisco forty 1856 01:29:29,520 --> 01:29:32,559 Speaker 2: nine ers bring a better roster than the Rams to La? No? 1857 01:29:34,160 --> 01:29:36,840 Speaker 6: But what they have, like coaching, advanced. 1858 01:29:36,800 --> 01:29:38,760 Speaker 2: Johnson is a better quarterback than Jake Brown, and he 1859 01:29:38,880 --> 01:29:41,719 Speaker 2: was actually drafted and at one point he was gonna 1860 01:29:41,720 --> 01:29:44,439 Speaker 2: be the successor to Tom Brady. Like I get that, 1861 01:29:44,920 --> 01:29:47,320 Speaker 2: but like I watched, I texted, I texted you on 1862 01:29:47,400 --> 01:29:49,639 Speaker 2: Thursday and night go on, like I'm watching the forty 1863 01:29:49,720 --> 01:29:51,800 Speaker 2: nine ers figure it out. They might not win the game. 1864 01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:54,120 Speaker 2: LA ended up making it a game where I thought 1865 01:29:54,120 --> 01:29:57,439 Speaker 2: we were gonna have another primetime tie. But I saw 1866 01:29:57,479 --> 01:29:59,439 Speaker 2: a team, I saw a coach that said, all right, 1867 01:29:59,439 --> 01:30:02,000 Speaker 2: here's what I have. Okay, I'll figure it out if. 1868 01:30:01,960 --> 01:30:03,640 Speaker 7: We did, And it was and that was just not 1869 01:30:03,680 --> 01:30:11,280 Speaker 7: a quarterback Kittle right, ayyukright, Jennings pearsol, every weapon they had, 1870 01:30:11,400 --> 01:30:12,479 Speaker 7: and they went into the game. 1871 01:30:13,200 --> 01:30:13,760 Speaker 2: You would know it. 1872 01:30:13,800 --> 01:30:16,240 Speaker 7: I would know it. Take a poll of one hundred people, 1873 01:30:16,240 --> 01:30:17,960 Speaker 7: they would all know it. Hey, how how does San 1874 01:30:17,960 --> 01:30:20,960 Speaker 7: Francisco have a chance tonight? Everyone would say Christian McCaffrey. 1875 01:30:21,640 --> 01:30:24,280 Speaker 7: And yet they still found ways to have Christian McCaffrey 1876 01:30:24,320 --> 01:30:25,280 Speaker 7: make an impact in the game. 1877 01:30:25,479 --> 01:30:26,880 Speaker 2: Right, So if you. 1878 01:30:26,880 --> 01:30:29,759 Speaker 7: Can do that against the Rams or another good coach, 1879 01:30:30,200 --> 01:30:32,120 Speaker 7: how can we not figure that out here with Jamar 1880 01:30:32,200 --> 01:30:32,960 Speaker 7: Chase and T Higgins. 1881 01:30:33,080 --> 01:30:36,160 Speaker 2: So, like all right. The roster isn't good. That's well established. 1882 01:30:36,240 --> 01:30:39,480 Speaker 2: I cannot help but think, though, especially from an offensive perspective, 1883 01:30:40,600 --> 01:30:43,679 Speaker 2: that there are coaches who would go, you know what, 1884 01:30:43,840 --> 01:30:46,519 Speaker 2: I'd rather have Joe Burrow, But give me Jake Browning 1885 01:30:46,800 --> 01:30:48,960 Speaker 2: and give me Chasing Higgins and give me Chase brown 1886 01:30:49,800 --> 01:30:52,839 Speaker 2: I will figure out a way to piece something together 1887 01:30:53,479 --> 01:30:55,519 Speaker 2: that gives this team a chance to win in the 1888 01:30:55,520 --> 01:30:56,960 Speaker 2: fourth quarter. Yeah, maybe we don't. 1889 01:30:57,240 --> 01:31:00,160 Speaker 7: Right, You could probably name fifteen offensive coaches right now 1890 01:31:01,160 --> 01:31:02,880 Speaker 7: that would that you would feel good about doing that 1891 01:31:04,560 --> 01:31:06,479 Speaker 7: better than what they currently have. That to me is 1892 01:31:06,520 --> 01:31:10,799 Speaker 7: when a coach proves its value and what the value 1893 01:31:10,880 --> 01:31:14,080 Speaker 7: and I got. We could go Zach's record without Joe 1894 01:31:14,080 --> 01:31:16,200 Speaker 7: as the starting quarterback. You could, You could dive into 1895 01:31:16,240 --> 01:31:19,400 Speaker 7: any number in any graphic you want. None of them 1896 01:31:19,400 --> 01:31:21,960 Speaker 7: are good. And what if we've been doing now for 1897 01:31:22,080 --> 01:31:28,040 Speaker 7: years waiting? You know, uh, personnel doesn't really match the scheme, 1898 01:31:28,160 --> 01:31:30,000 Speaker 7: and well, you know you got to kind of give 1899 01:31:30,040 --> 01:31:32,120 Speaker 7: him a break here because Burrow's hurt, you know, you 1900 01:31:32,160 --> 01:31:35,040 Speaker 7: can't really judge off that, and Jamar's missed time, well, 1901 01:31:35,040 --> 01:31:37,080 Speaker 7: they haven't had time in training camp. Jamar missed all 1902 01:31:37,120 --> 01:31:40,920 Speaker 7: a training camp it's always an excuse. It's never just 1903 01:31:41,040 --> 01:31:44,720 Speaker 7: like man hand up just not good enough. It's always 1904 01:31:45,080 --> 01:31:48,360 Speaker 7: a bad matchup or well we figured it out, laid 1905 01:31:48,479 --> 01:31:53,440 Speaker 7: or we got It's always an excuse with them. 1906 01:31:53,479 --> 01:31:58,120 Speaker 2: And I again, like it's one example, but it's with Shanahan. 1907 01:31:58,240 --> 01:32:01,480 Speaker 2: On Thursday. I didn't team making excuses. 1908 01:32:01,560 --> 01:32:05,080 Speaker 7: I saw a coach that said, all right, I'll embrace 1909 01:32:05,120 --> 01:32:08,320 Speaker 7: the challenge of putting together something. And again like they 1910 01:32:08,320 --> 01:32:11,040 Speaker 7: weren't awesome. It's not like they scored fifty points. Yeah, 1911 01:32:11,080 --> 01:32:14,000 Speaker 7: but it would have been winning record. Hey, we're shorthanded, 1912 01:32:14,360 --> 01:32:17,880 Speaker 7: let's play hard. If it doesn't happen there, the intensity 1913 01:32:17,880 --> 01:32:21,160 Speaker 7: on the sidelines, uh huh, the way in which every 1914 01:32:21,160 --> 01:32:26,240 Speaker 7: time they fly, he's locked into what it's just I 1915 01:32:26,360 --> 01:32:30,559 Speaker 7: go back to the to the the feel and the offense, 1916 01:32:30,600 --> 01:32:34,599 Speaker 7: and we talked about Detroit and how everything sets something 1917 01:32:34,600 --> 01:32:35,000 Speaker 7: else up. 1918 01:32:35,000 --> 01:32:37,519 Speaker 6: And then we go to the flea flicker. Again. They 1919 01:32:37,640 --> 01:32:38,439 Speaker 6: did not run. 1920 01:32:38,800 --> 01:32:40,960 Speaker 7: No, they didn't run one thing throughout two and a 1921 01:32:41,000 --> 01:32:44,160 Speaker 7: half three quarters that would have set up a flea flicker. 1922 01:32:45,160 --> 01:32:48,840 Speaker 7: It's just let's grab this from here. And oh oh, 1923 01:32:48,920 --> 01:32:51,400 Speaker 7: I just came across that. Let's try that one. It's 1924 01:32:51,439 --> 01:32:54,160 Speaker 7: not I'm gonna run this so that I'm gonna come 1925 01:32:54,160 --> 01:32:57,120 Speaker 7: back later and hit him with this, or you know what, 1926 01:32:57,720 --> 01:33:00,240 Speaker 7: We're only getting two point eight yards per carry right now, 1927 01:33:00,640 --> 01:33:02,680 Speaker 7: but I'm gonna keep giving them opportunities because in the 1928 01:33:02,680 --> 01:33:07,439 Speaker 7: fourth quarter that's gonna cash them. Nothing like that, nothing 1929 01:33:07,520 --> 01:33:08,880 Speaker 7: builds off anything else here. 1930 01:33:09,400 --> 01:33:10,080 Speaker 6: It's maddening. 1931 01:33:10,280 --> 01:33:15,320 Speaker 2: Sixteen after five o'clock, Let's talk about hitting the reset button, 1932 01:33:15,520 --> 01:33:20,120 Speaker 2: and let's talk about everything else that went down around 1933 01:33:20,160 --> 01:33:23,360 Speaker 2: the NFL during Week five between now and six great 1934 01:33:23,439 --> 01:33:25,680 Speaker 2: twin peaks in Westchester, Tony. 1935 01:33:25,800 --> 01:33:27,040 Speaker 6: Part about doing UC early. 1936 01:33:27,240 --> 01:33:29,960 Speaker 2: We did U see early? Do some more later. This 1937 01:33:30,040 --> 01:33:32,480 Speaker 2: is ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports. 1938 01:33:32,160 --> 01:33:35,920 Speaker 14: Station Cincinnati's ESPN fifteen thirty. 1939 01:33:36,920 --> 01:33:41,240 Speaker 13: Traffic from the UC Health Traffic Center Mammograms Save Lives 1940 01:33:41,320 --> 01:33:44,080 Speaker 13: called five one three five eighty four pink to schedule 1941 01:33:44,120 --> 01:33:47,760 Speaker 13: your annual mammogram with UC Help's expert team.

But I know it's being alleged, 1987 01:36:18,000 --> 01:36:22,599 Speaker 2: and I know what everybody originally thought, and uh that 1988 01:36:22,600 --> 01:36:24,360 Speaker 2: that story I said to you yesterday, and we didn't 1989 01:36:24,360 --> 01:36:25,080 Speaker 2: know as much as we do. 1990 01:36:25,120 --> 01:36:25,280 Speaker 6: Now. 1991 01:36:25,360 --> 01:36:27,240 Speaker 2: I'm one of the more bizarre things I've ever seen. 1992 01:36:27,400 --> 01:36:29,479 Speaker 6: Insane, insane. 1993 01:36:30,880 --> 01:36:34,200 Speaker 2: But James, James, is there anything I think I said 1994 01:36:34,240 --> 01:36:36,960 Speaker 2: this last week? Is there anything that unites the internet 1995 01:36:37,040 --> 01:36:39,920 Speaker 2: better than when James Franklin loses a game? 1996 01:36:41,200 --> 01:36:45,200 Speaker 6: For whatever reason, people love it. I think it's how 1997 01:36:45,200 --> 01:36:45,679 Speaker 6: he acts. 1998 01:36:45,800 --> 01:36:49,200 Speaker 2: I put on social media. I put on social media 1999 01:36:49,280 --> 01:36:51,599 Speaker 2: that exact sentiment that I just repeated to you on 2000 01:36:51,640 --> 01:36:58,320 Speaker 2: Saturday night. And I got a text from somebody who 2001 01:36:59,520 --> 01:37:06,040 Speaker 2: has prefer professionally cross paths with James Franklin who just wrote, deserved. 2002 01:37:05,880 --> 01:37:10,840 Speaker 6: Yep, the word it's easily got the worst loss of 2003 01:37:10,840 --> 01:37:11,280 Speaker 6: the year. 2004 01:37:11,200 --> 01:37:13,400 Speaker 7: Twenty four and a half point favorite lose outright to 2005 01:37:13,439 --> 01:37:15,240 Speaker 7: an zero to four team that got boat raced by 2006 01:37:15,240 --> 01:37:17,080 Speaker 7: New Mexico, that it's already fired its coach. 2007 01:37:17,200 --> 01:37:19,839 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, that was bad. 2008 01:37:19,960 --> 01:37:23,719 Speaker 2: Tough one for PSU. Bengals don't have a good roster, 2009 01:37:24,080 --> 01:37:26,120 Speaker 2: so it's time to hit the reset button. Here's my 2010 01:37:26,240 --> 01:37:28,479 Speaker 2: question for you. Joe Burrow comes back next year, right, 2011 01:37:30,960 --> 01:37:33,920 Speaker 2: can you win a Super Bowl in the next two 2012 01:37:34,000 --> 01:37:38,679 Speaker 2: years with Joe Burrow's quarterback? If you decide to use 2013 01:37:38,760 --> 01:37:41,120 Speaker 2: this season as a reason to start from scratch with 2014 01:37:41,160 --> 01:37:41,679 Speaker 2: the rest. 2015 01:37:41,479 --> 01:37:41,960 Speaker 6: Of the roster. 2016 01:37:45,800 --> 01:37:49,000 Speaker 7: Who's making the decisions. My guess is it's going to 2017 01:37:49,040 --> 01:37:51,280 Speaker 7: be same guy that's been in place. Yeah then how 2018 01:37:51,439 --> 01:37:56,040 Speaker 7: then how how can I say yes? I mean, I 2019 01:37:56,280 --> 01:38:01,600 Speaker 7: asked you in quick hits with Austin today, outside of 2020 01:38:01,680 --> 01:38:04,120 Speaker 7: Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase, tell me his draft. 2021 01:38:03,880 --> 01:38:07,640 Speaker 2: Hits in recent years, there haven't been that. 2022 01:38:08,600 --> 01:38:10,599 Speaker 7: Like Austin went back to Geno Atkins or you went 2023 01:38:10,640 --> 01:38:13,519 Speaker 7: back to like Jesse Bates, Yeah, Bama Hub. But then 2024 01:38:13,520 --> 01:38:17,280 Speaker 7: they drafted Jesse Tyler and they didn't retain him. They 2025 01:38:17,360 --> 01:38:19,639 Speaker 7: let Like it's not just the drafts, it's been the decisions. 2026 01:38:19,640 --> 01:38:22,240 Speaker 7: They let Andrew wit with walk. Yeah, first round pick 2027 01:38:22,240 --> 01:38:26,719 Speaker 7: on John Ross, Miles Murphy is now playing thirteen probably 2028 01:38:26,720 --> 01:38:27,400 Speaker 7: Cedga go boy. 2029 01:38:27,439 --> 01:38:29,479 Speaker 6: He The list goes on and on. 2030 01:38:29,600 --> 01:38:31,760 Speaker 7: So you can tell me that you want to hit 2031 01:38:31,760 --> 01:38:33,760 Speaker 7: the reset button and you're gonna build around this cores 2032 01:38:33,760 --> 01:38:35,879 Speaker 7: And we've talked about the cores and the lack thereof. 2033 01:38:37,000 --> 01:38:40,839 Speaker 7: But at the end of that, mo, are you trusting 2034 01:38:40,880 --> 01:38:43,080 Speaker 7: those tasked with rebuilding. 2035 01:38:43,600 --> 01:38:46,759 Speaker 2: So that's the thing, Like we're we're in the Burrows 2036 01:38:46,800 --> 01:38:49,639 Speaker 2: super Bowl window. Now he's under contract for the rest 2037 01:38:49,640 --> 01:38:51,760 Speaker 2: of the decade, So you have four more years. Okay, 2038 01:38:51,880 --> 01:38:55,519 Speaker 2: Joe is gonna turn thirty during next season. This year 2039 01:38:55,600 --> 01:38:58,679 Speaker 2: is a wash. You didn't win last year, so all right, 2040 01:38:58,880 --> 01:39:01,519 Speaker 2: hit the reset button. Hit the reset button to me 2041 01:39:01,520 --> 01:39:04,800 Speaker 2: means you're basically starting from scratch, which I think you 2042 01:39:04,840 --> 01:39:07,840 Speaker 2: can very fairly argue they should because the roster is 2043 01:39:07,880 --> 01:39:11,280 Speaker 2: so bad. But if you're gonna hit the reset button 2044 01:39:11,360 --> 01:39:14,599 Speaker 2: and you're gonna rebuild, rebuilds do take time. 2045 01:39:14,640 --> 01:39:14,800 Speaker 7: Now. 2046 01:39:14,800 --> 01:39:16,519 Speaker 2: They don't have to take as long as they may 2047 01:39:16,560 --> 01:39:18,599 Speaker 2: in baseball. They don't have to take nearly as long 2048 01:39:18,640 --> 01:39:21,520 Speaker 2: as long as you have an a lister or at quarterback. 2049 01:39:21,920 --> 01:39:25,559 Speaker 2: But can you rebuild starting right now and put this 2050 01:39:25,640 --> 01:39:27,919 Speaker 2: team in the Super Bowl over the next two seasons? 2051 01:39:28,040 --> 01:39:34,400 Speaker 7: You can't answer that confidently if Zach and Duker in 2052 01:39:34,439 --> 01:39:34,880 Speaker 7: their spot. 2053 01:39:35,000 --> 01:39:37,120 Speaker 2: Okay, so we all said coming into this season, the 2054 01:39:37,120 --> 01:39:39,000 Speaker 2: next three years are huge, Like, if they're going to 2055 01:39:39,000 --> 01:39:41,000 Speaker 2: win one, it's the next three years. Ain't gonna win 2056 01:39:41,040 --> 01:39:44,200 Speaker 2: one this year, So all right, now we take two 2057 01:39:44,240 --> 01:39:46,879 Speaker 2: years to get the rebuild done. Now we're talking twenty 2058 01:39:46,960 --> 01:39:48,519 Speaker 2: twenty eight, when Joe turns thirty two. 2059 01:39:48,800 --> 01:39:54,760 Speaker 7: Yeah, I just don't Again, I don't know how you 2060 01:39:54,840 --> 01:39:58,920 Speaker 7: can build that successfully as currently constructed from a coach 2061 01:39:58,920 --> 01:39:59,679 Speaker 7: and general manager. 2062 01:40:00,040 --> 01:40:04,200 Speaker 2: If you're Joe Burrow, now you're told, hey, get healthy 2063 01:40:04,680 --> 01:40:07,200 Speaker 2: when you're back, we're gonna go through a rebuild. 2064 01:40:08,360 --> 01:40:10,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's that's not easy to ask him either, Do 2065 01:40:10,280 --> 01:40:11,120 Speaker 6: you want any part of that? 2066 01:40:11,360 --> 01:40:11,479 Speaker 2: No? 2067 01:40:12,320 --> 01:40:13,320 Speaker 6: Again, Like and. 2068 01:40:13,320 --> 01:40:16,200 Speaker 7: If I'm Joe, I'm saying the same thing, what have 2069 01:40:16,240 --> 01:40:20,360 Speaker 7: we been doing?

Was firing Luanna Rumo and another 2075 01:40:30,600 --> 01:40:33,080 Speaker 7: offensive line coach and bringing in a new D line 2076 01:40:33,120 --> 01:40:35,880 Speaker 7: and no line coach and bringing in a new decordinator? 2077 01:40:35,920 --> 01:40:39,800 Speaker 7: And was was that not trying to rebuild? What was 2078 01:40:39,800 --> 01:40:42,720 Speaker 7: wrong last year with this team? And that great is 2079 01:40:42,760 --> 01:40:46,960 Speaker 7: a big f This roster stinks, they have a few 2080 01:40:46,960 --> 01:40:50,439 Speaker 7: pieces to build around. What would what would signify to 2081 01:40:50,479 --> 01:40:56,280 Speaker 7: me that anything would be different?

Are you trusting are 2084 01:41:01,080 --> 01:41:03,720 Speaker 7: you trusting the process? Who you bringing in? How much 2085 01:41:03,720 --> 01:41:06,280 Speaker 7: are you relying on Joe then to say, Hey, Joe, 2086 01:41:06,760 --> 01:41:08,479 Speaker 7: what do you think of this guy? What do you 2087 01:41:08,520 --> 01:41:09,120 Speaker 7: think of this guy? 2088 01:41:09,320 --> 01:41:12,519 Speaker 2: I guess for me, Like somebody asked me yesterday, what 2089 01:41:12,640 --> 01:41:15,760 Speaker 2: is it like if you're Joe Burrow watching this? And 2090 01:41:15,880 --> 01:41:19,240 Speaker 2: my answer was, you understand this is gonna take some 2091 01:41:19,320 --> 01:41:22,040 Speaker 2: heavy lifting and I'm not sure I want to be 2092 01:41:22,160 --> 01:41:22,560 Speaker 2: here for it. 2093 01:41:22,680 --> 01:41:22,840 Speaker 6: Now. 2094 01:41:22,840 --> 01:41:26,640 Speaker 2: He's under contract, right, you know the blasts. But like 2095 01:41:27,880 --> 01:41:30,640 Speaker 2: we we run everything through this filter, right, what does 2096 01:41:30,760 --> 01:41:33,400 Speaker 2: Joe want? What does Joe think? We've done it with 2097 01:41:33,400 --> 01:41:35,040 Speaker 2: the roster. We've done it with t Higgins, we did 2098 01:41:35,080 --> 01:41:38,920 Speaker 2: it with Trey Hendrickson. Run this through Joel Joe Burrow's filter. 2099 01:41:39,040 --> 01:41:42,760 Speaker 2: Hey Joe, it didn't work this year. Our offensive line 2100 01:41:42,840 --> 01:41:45,400 Speaker 2: ended your season again for all intents and purposes. Maybe 2101 01:41:45,439 --> 01:41:48,600 Speaker 2: he comes back, but this year has exposed us so 2102 01:41:48,760 --> 01:41:50,680 Speaker 2: bad that we now know we've got to hit the 2103 01:41:50,720 --> 01:41:54,080 Speaker 2: reset button. And so we're gonna have to maybe go 2104 01:41:54,280 --> 01:41:56,040 Speaker 2: young in a lot of different spots. We have to 2105 01:41:56,080 --> 01:41:58,880 Speaker 2: rebuild the roster. Rebuilds do take a little time. And 2106 01:41:58,880 --> 01:42:01,840 Speaker 2: again I'm not talking about five years. If you're Joe Burrow, 2107 01:42:01,880 --> 01:42:05,519 Speaker 2: like the clock on your prime is ticking, you're watching 2108 01:42:05,600 --> 01:42:08,439 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes in a down year last year, still played 2109 01:42:08,439 --> 01:42:11,120 Speaker 2: in a Super Bowl. Josh Allen's a terrific player with 2110 01:42:11,160 --> 01:42:14,000 Speaker 2: a team who has a chance to win the whole thing. 2111 01:42:14,280 --> 01:42:16,800 Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson went healthy is a terrific player who at 2112 01:42:16,880 --> 01:42:19,800 Speaker 2: least plays in an organization that has a track record 2113 01:42:19,840 --> 01:42:23,439 Speaker 2: of building really good rosters. Jalen Hurts has already won one. 2114 01:42:23,479 --> 01:42:26,240 Speaker 2: The Eagles have offensive issues right now, but you certainly 2115 01:42:26,240 --> 01:42:31,120 Speaker 2: wouldn't rule him out. And I'm now I'm stuck another rebuild, 2116 01:42:32,040 --> 01:42:36,040 Speaker 2: Like that's what I worry about. How many more years 2117 01:42:36,080 --> 01:42:39,280 Speaker 2: are you gonna, you know, not capitalize on having Joe 2118 01:42:39,600 --> 01:42:43,879 Speaker 2: and then how many years will accumulate before Joe goes Dude, 2119 01:42:44,080 --> 01:42:45,439 Speaker 2: I know I can walk at the end of the 2120 01:42:45,479 --> 01:42:47,639 Speaker 2: twenty twenty nine season, but I don't want to wait, 2121 01:42:47,640 --> 01:42:48,880 Speaker 2: because we're wasting my prime. 2122 01:42:49,000 --> 01:42:55,160 Speaker 7: And think, just think how quickly at tumbles like Burrow 2123 01:42:55,200 --> 01:42:59,599 Speaker 7: gets hurt against Jacksonville browning those picks, but somehow delivers 2124 01:42:59,600 --> 01:43:02,280 Speaker 7: a win and they're two and zero and we're having 2125 01:43:02,280 --> 01:43:07,160 Speaker 7: the conversation of Minnesota's okay, they're not great, Denver's okay, 2126 01:43:07,200 --> 01:43:09,840 Speaker 7: they're not great. Can you find a way to count 2127 01:43:09,840 --> 01:43:11,800 Speaker 7: the winds they need and Joe can maybe come back 2128 01:43:11,800 --> 01:43:13,240 Speaker 7: and you can still make a run on it this year. 2129 01:43:13,840 --> 01:43:16,880 Speaker 7: To just three weeks later and we're talking about a 2130 01:43:16,920 --> 01:43:19,559 Speaker 7: complete rebuild. That's how quick this has falling apart. 2131 01:43:19,600 --> 01:43:22,240 Speaker 2: And by the way, rebuilding might be the way to go. 2132 01:43:22,520 --> 01:43:23,680 Speaker 2: I'm not saying it shight be. 2133 01:43:23,800 --> 01:43:26,160 Speaker 7: But that's how quick this has falling apart. And that's 2134 01:43:26,200 --> 01:43:28,720 Speaker 7: how bad the last three weeks. It's not just the 2135 01:43:28,720 --> 01:43:31,200 Speaker 7: fact that they've lost three in a row, it's the 2136 01:43:31,600 --> 01:43:35,120 Speaker 7: nature in which they've lost. Yeah, non competitive, right, not 2137 01:43:35,240 --> 01:43:37,040 Speaker 7: even a chance to feel a good. 2138 01:43:37,000 --> 01:43:40,120 Speaker 6: Roster right, three weeks, three weeks. 2139 01:43:39,840 --> 01:43:42,880 Speaker 7: Have went by, and not only this season feels like 2140 01:43:42,920 --> 01:43:44,879 Speaker 7: it's crumbling, the whole foundation. 2141 01:43:45,320 --> 01:43:48,400 Speaker 2: Yes, the foundation of the franchise is Joe is gonna 2142 01:43:48,439 --> 01:43:52,400 Speaker 2: elevate everybody. Yep, it's shaky at best. Last year proved 2143 01:43:52,439 --> 01:43:56,840 Speaker 2: as much last year approved. The foundation is shaky because again, 2144 01:43:56,920 --> 01:44:00,480 Speaker 2: he was awesome. You were four an eight at one 2145 01:44:00,080 --> 01:44:04,080 Speaker 2: point as awesome as he was. You didn't make the postseason. 2146 01:44:03,560 --> 01:44:05,640 Speaker 7: And you were four and eight, and you knew you 2147 01:44:05,720 --> 01:44:08,720 Speaker 7: had deficiencies and you didn't address them in the off 2148 01:44:08,800 --> 01:44:10,440 Speaker 7: season when you had money dispatch. 2149 01:44:10,160 --> 01:44:12,559 Speaker 2: And so you know. My favorite thing to say is 2150 01:44:13,200 --> 01:44:15,679 Speaker 2: that I get patted on the head and told oh 2151 01:44:15,800 --> 01:44:19,320 Speaker 2: Mo this off season whenever I tried to raise my 2152 01:44:19,360 --> 01:44:23,040 Speaker 2: hand and go eli, we're sure, we're sure they're doing 2153 01:44:23,160 --> 01:44:26,000 Speaker 2: enough on the offensive line, because in August they were 2154 01:44:26,040 --> 01:44:29,759 Speaker 2: still working guys out and signing guys. Okay, are we sure? 2155 01:44:30,320 --> 01:44:32,840 Speaker 2: We're sure we don't need another guy in the secondary. 2156 01:44:33,479 --> 01:44:36,800 Speaker 2: We're good here. We're sure that they have addressed their 2157 01:44:36,880 --> 01:44:40,360 Speaker 2: issues stopping the run. We're sure about that. And I 2158 01:44:40,400 --> 01:44:42,800 Speaker 2: got patted on the head time and again because you 2159 01:44:42,800 --> 01:44:44,880 Speaker 2: could always play the borough card. We got Joe. We're 2160 01:44:44,920 --> 01:44:48,240 Speaker 2: gonna be fine. Defense needs to be league average. Offensive 2161 01:44:48,280 --> 01:44:50,519 Speaker 2: line needs to be league average. Coaching needs to be 2162 01:44:50,640 --> 01:44:55,240 Speaker 2: league average. Take Joe away, Hugh, But like last year, 2163 01:44:55,320 --> 01:44:58,759 Speaker 2: should have told you this isn't good enough. Joe wasn't 2164 01:44:58,800 --> 01:45:01,200 Speaker 2: merely good last season. Joe was awesome. 2165 01:45:01,400 --> 01:45:01,519 Speaker 5: Yea. 2166 01:45:01,640 --> 01:45:03,760 Speaker 2: For my money, he was the best quarterback in the 2167 01:45:03,760 --> 01:45:06,960 Speaker 2: sport last year, and with it never being easier to 2168 01:45:07,000 --> 01:45:11,840 Speaker 2: make the postseason, you couldn't. So the issues start last year. 2169 01:45:12,600 --> 01:45:16,360 Speaker 2: Take away, Joe put in a replacement level quarterback and 2170 01:45:16,439 --> 01:45:18,880 Speaker 2: it stinks. Then you take the quarterback play and make 2171 01:45:18,920 --> 01:45:21,560 Speaker 2: it what it's been you have no chance of competing. 2172 01:45:21,160 --> 01:45:23,160 Speaker 7: And then they've taken stuff in the off season we 2173 01:45:23,200 --> 01:45:25,439 Speaker 7: talked about in training camp, we talked about and they're 2174 01:45:25,479 --> 01:45:29,320 Speaker 7: all non existent. We spent half our training camp coverage 2175 01:45:29,320 --> 01:45:30,880 Speaker 7: talking about how good Jermaine Burton looked. 2176 01:45:31,400 --> 01:45:32,920 Speaker 2: It hasn't played us now can't get active. 2177 01:45:32,960 --> 01:45:34,840 Speaker 7: Yeah, spent a lot of training camp talking about man 2178 01:45:34,880 --> 01:45:36,720 Speaker 7: TODs Brooks looked like he could be a steal. How 2179 01:45:36,800 --> 01:45:39,760 Speaker 7: many carries is TODs Brooks getting pe Ryan and Chase 2180 01:45:39,760 --> 01:45:41,280 Speaker 7: Brown essentially split snay? 2181 01:45:41,439 --> 01:45:42,559 Speaker 6: How much time do we talk. 2182 01:45:42,439 --> 01:45:46,880 Speaker 7: In the in the training camp coverage of man T 2183 01:45:47,080 --> 01:45:49,759 Speaker 7: Higgins in the slot, to Higgins in motions, Higgins the field, 2184 01:45:49,760 --> 01:45:50,200 Speaker 7: Tegans in. 2185 01:45:50,200 --> 01:45:51,880 Speaker 6: The boundary, Jamar moving around? 2186 01:45:51,920 --> 01:45:53,680 Speaker 7: How much do we talk all about that in the 2187 01:45:53,720 --> 01:45:56,439 Speaker 7: off season in training camp and now you watch a 2188 01:45:56,479 --> 01:45:59,559 Speaker 7: game and you don't see any of it, none of it. 2189 01:46:00,479 --> 01:46:02,960 Speaker 7: We talked about the secondary playing with confidence flying around, 2190 01:46:03,080 --> 01:46:03,479 Speaker 7: they don't. 2191 01:46:04,280 --> 01:46:04,679 Speaker 6: They don't. 2192 01:46:06,000 --> 01:46:10,200 Speaker 7: So every positive that we thought could help this team 2193 01:46:10,560 --> 01:46:14,360 Speaker 7: is now non existent. And you would think when the 2194 01:46:14,479 --> 01:46:17,120 Speaker 7: roster needs help because Burrow's not there, wouldn't you think 2195 01:46:17,160 --> 01:46:17,800 Speaker 7: you rely on that? 2196 01:46:18,640 --> 01:46:18,720 Speaker 5: All? 2197 01:46:18,840 --> 01:46:19,800 Speaker 2: Right? Now, I got a scheme. 2198 01:46:19,880 --> 01:46:22,120 Speaker 6: Let's let you know what, let's try t in the slot. 2199 01:46:22,800 --> 01:46:23,800 Speaker 6: Let's try him in motion. 2200 01:46:24,640 --> 01:46:27,200 Speaker 7: You know, they ran a they ran a motion with 2201 01:46:27,280 --> 01:46:30,720 Speaker 7: Jamar Chase, who went you know, behind the quarterback yesterday 2202 01:46:31,200 --> 01:46:34,800 Speaker 7: on a run pass option and they kept seven guys 2203 01:46:34,800 --> 01:46:38,800 Speaker 7: in the box and Jake Browning handed the ball off 2204 01:46:39,600 --> 01:46:42,160 Speaker 7: then do it to Jamar Chase with twelve yard separation. 2205 01:46:42,880 --> 01:46:43,960 Speaker 2: So like. 2206 01:46:45,600 --> 01:46:48,160 Speaker 7: Every storyline that I thought we could lean to with 2207 01:46:48,240 --> 01:46:52,080 Speaker 7: this team is now an afterthought. Like we don't even 2208 01:46:52,080 --> 01:46:54,479 Speaker 7: talk about Jermaine Burton and the camp he had because 2209 01:46:54,479 --> 01:46:55,320 Speaker 7: he's not even active. 2210 01:46:55,760 --> 01:47:02,320 Speaker 2: Charlie Jones was questionable all week. I just m McKinley Jackson. 2211 01:47:03,040 --> 01:47:03,960 Speaker 2: Does he ever play the. 2212 01:47:05,120 --> 01:47:07,000 Speaker 6: Speed in which this fell? 2213 01:47:07,040 --> 01:47:11,719 Speaker 7: Apart Dalton Reisner great pass blocker one snap he played yesterday, 2214 01:47:12,520 --> 01:47:17,560 Speaker 7: I guess just it's remarkable how half of it and 2215 01:47:17,640 --> 01:47:19,880 Speaker 7: we just don't talk about anymore and half doesn't happen. 2216 01:47:20,000 --> 01:47:22,799 Speaker 2: But but can I ask about Dalton Reisner that one snap? 2217 01:47:22,880 --> 01:47:25,639 Speaker 2: What did Pro Football Focus great hit for that snap? 2218 01:47:25,760 --> 01:47:29,160 Speaker 2: Was it really good? Because I heard this a lot 2219 01:47:29,200 --> 01:47:30,559 Speaker 2: in PFF loves him. 2220 01:47:30,640 --> 01:47:30,800 Speaker 6: Yep. 2221 01:47:30,960 --> 01:47:33,280 Speaker 2: Okay, well, no other NFL team does because he's unsigned. 2222 01:47:33,479 --> 01:47:36,759 Speaker 2: By the way, something you mentioned off air the special 2223 01:47:36,840 --> 01:47:39,240 Speaker 2: teams play, yep. 2224 01:47:39,360 --> 01:47:44,640 Speaker 7: Does Ryan Rico know like you're allowed to kick the 2225 01:47:44,680 --> 01:47:46,640 Speaker 7: ball to a point, give your guy a chance. 2226 01:47:46,439 --> 01:47:48,720 Speaker 2: Where dudes can come down and down it and give 2227 01:47:48,720 --> 01:47:51,120 Speaker 2: your team better field position? Does he is he? Does 2228 01:47:51,160 --> 01:47:53,280 Speaker 2: he think this is like run pass or kick or 2229 01:47:53,439 --> 01:47:54,920 Speaker 2: see how far we can punt the ball? 2230 01:47:55,439 --> 01:47:57,920 Speaker 7: Leave that role, just that bounce into the end zone. 2231 01:47:58,960 --> 01:48:01,320 Speaker 7: It's just on every level right now, it's a failure. 2232 01:48:01,600 --> 01:48:04,439 Speaker 2: Twenty three away from six o'clock, TONI and MOFU. 2233 01:48:04,800 --> 01:48:06,400 Speaker 6: Laser locked in Man Twin. 2234 01:48:06,200 --> 01:48:10,920 Speaker 2: Peaks in Westchester on ESPN fifteen thirty, Cincinnati Sports Station. 2235 01:48:11,640 --> 01:48:14,880 Speaker 15: You've been listening to Football in the NATI, brought to 2236 01:48:14,920 --> 01:48:19,680 Speaker 15: you by Cincinnati Tax Resolution powered by Tofe Sheldon on 2237 01:48:20,160 --> 01:48:24,640 Speaker 15: ESPN fifteen thirty, the official home of the Cincinnati Bengals. 2238 01:48:25,479 --> 01:48:28,120 Speaker 14: Cincinnati's ESPN fifteen thirty. 2239 01:48:29,120 --> 01:48:33,479 Speaker 13: Traffic from the UC Health Traffic Center, Mammo Graham Saved Lives. 2240 01:48:33,560 --> 01:48:36,320 Speaker 13: Called five one three, five eight four pink to schedule 2241 01:48:36,360 --> 01:48:40,000 Speaker 13: your annual mammogram with UC Help's expert team.

I'd like to know right now. 2256 01:49:31,800 --> 01:49:34,160 Speaker 2: I'd like to know it's anybody, but Jake Brown. Yeah, 2257 01:49:34,200 --> 01:49:36,360 Speaker 2: would you take literally any living human being? 2258 01:49:36,400 --> 01:49:38,560 Speaker 7: Probably at this point. There was a point in the 2259 01:49:38,600 --> 01:49:41,960 Speaker 7: second quarter I almost drove down. I would have liked 2260 01:49:41,960 --> 01:49:45,720 Speaker 7: that yesterday, so real quick. The last segment, we talked 2261 01:49:45,760 --> 01:49:50,000 Speaker 7: about rebuilding and there are cases where teams in a 2262 01:49:50,080 --> 01:49:52,720 Speaker 7: year turn it around. When you normally do that, you 2263 01:49:52,760 --> 01:49:55,720 Speaker 7: get the quarterback. That's what turns it around. Yeah, what 2264 01:49:55,800 --> 01:49:58,519 Speaker 7: the problem is the Bengals have the quarterback. Can they 2265 01:49:58,800 --> 01:50:01,040 Speaker 7: successfully build around the quarterback when they haven't been able 2266 01:50:01,080 --> 01:50:02,040 Speaker 7: to since he's been here. 2267 01:50:02,120 --> 01:50:04,920 Speaker 2: So the Bengals did this quickly. They did it from 2268 01:50:04,960 --> 01:50:07,880 Speaker 2: twenty nineteen when they won two games to twenty twenty 2269 01:50:07,960 --> 01:50:09,960 Speaker 2: one when they went to the Super Bowl, right because 2270 01:50:10,000 --> 01:50:12,479 Speaker 2: they could throw a lot of money at their defense. Yep, 2271 01:50:12,840 --> 01:50:15,880 Speaker 2: like roster building, you can't. Roster building is different now, 2272 01:50:16,240 --> 01:50:21,720 Speaker 2: So I've made this point before. Look, Duke Tobin built 2273 01:50:22,000 --> 01:50:26,880 Speaker 2: two teams that played in AFC Championship games. You could 2274 01:50:26,880 --> 01:50:29,960 Speaker 2: build the roster by just throwing money at problems when 2275 01:50:30,439 --> 01:50:34,240 Speaker 2: Burrow and Chase and Higgins are on rookie deals. So 2276 01:50:34,400 --> 01:50:36,320 Speaker 2: you could throw a lot of money at Trey Hendrickson 2277 01:50:36,320 --> 01:50:37,920 Speaker 2: and you could throw and they got it right with Trey, 2278 01:50:38,160 --> 01:50:40,120 Speaker 2: greatest free agent signing in the history of the franchise. 2279 01:50:40,240 --> 01:50:42,639 Speaker 2: You could throw money at Chadobi a Wooziah. You could overpay, 2280 01:50:42,680 --> 01:50:45,599 Speaker 2: which everybody said they did. You could overpay DJ Reader 2281 01:50:45,720 --> 01:50:48,879 Speaker 2: like you could throw money at the problem. Bengals obviously 2282 01:50:49,040 --> 01:50:51,840 Speaker 2: have money to spend, but they can't just throw a 2283 01:50:51,880 --> 01:50:54,360 Speaker 2: bunch of money at the problem now to rebuild the 2284 01:50:54,400 --> 01:50:56,280 Speaker 2: way they did when they built the Super Bowl team. 2285 01:50:56,280 --> 01:50:59,679 Speaker 7: But the teams that have done it consistently, Josh Allen 2286 01:50:59,720 --> 01:51:01,639 Speaker 7: and the what do we talk about in the same breath, 2287 01:51:01,680 --> 01:51:03,600 Speaker 7: the way they've built the roster around Josh Allen and 2288 01:51:03,640 --> 01:51:06,479 Speaker 7: the decisions they've made in the coaching Joe Brady, right, 2289 01:51:06,840 --> 01:51:08,720 Speaker 7: Sean mcdunnott, What are we talking about with Kansas City? 2290 01:51:08,720 --> 01:51:10,439 Speaker 7: All the time? Talk about the players, but what do 2291 01:51:10,479 --> 01:51:15,800 Speaker 7: you end up with? Andy Reid? So, if you're consistent, 2292 01:51:16,120 --> 01:51:18,479 Speaker 7: you got the coaching to match it. If not, then 2293 01:51:18,479 --> 01:51:22,479 Speaker 7: you have the coaching advantages. Liam Cohen gives his team 2294 01:51:22,479 --> 01:51:26,960 Speaker 7: an advantage offensively, He gives his team an advantage what 2295 01:51:27,000 --> 01:51:28,800 Speaker 7: they're doing in New England and they bring back with 2296 01:51:28,880 --> 01:51:32,720 Speaker 7: Josh McDaniel terrible head coach, not that guy, but a 2297 01:51:32,720 --> 01:51:36,439 Speaker 7: good coordinator gives his team an advantage. You mentioned Shane 2298 01:51:36,439 --> 01:51:40,280 Speaker 7: Steichen and what he's doing with Daniel Jones with the Chargers. 2299 01:51:40,320 --> 01:51:42,599 Speaker 7: You talk about Harball with the Denver Broncos. You talk 2300 01:51:42,680 --> 01:51:45,439 Speaker 7: about Sean Payton in the same light. Washington, you talk 2301 01:51:45,479 --> 01:51:47,559 Speaker 7: about what Kingsbury has been able to do with with 2302 01:51:48,280 --> 01:51:52,080 Speaker 7: Jaydon Daniels, like there are constants to the success stories 2303 01:51:52,320 --> 01:51:55,559 Speaker 7: Jordan Love. But you go back to what Mott Lafloor. 2304 01:51:56,439 --> 01:52:00,559 Speaker 7: You any successful team, you also talk about how it 2305 01:52:00,640 --> 01:52:03,480 Speaker 7: pairs with the style and with the coaching. With the Bengals, 2306 01:52:03,880 --> 01:52:06,240 Speaker 7: does anyone ever say they got Joe Burrow and they 2307 01:52:06,240 --> 01:52:09,840 Speaker 7: got Zach Taylor leading them? No, no, no, it is 2308 01:52:09,880 --> 01:52:12,599 Speaker 7: always what, well, they got Joe Burrow so they can 2309 01:52:12,680 --> 01:52:17,160 Speaker 7: do something, but it's never paired with Man Andy Reid 2310 01:52:17,160 --> 01:52:21,320 Speaker 7: and Patrick Mahomes. No one talks about that with the 2311 01:52:21,320 --> 01:52:26,840 Speaker 7: Cincinnati Bengals. So Man Buffalo has really built their roster 2312 01:52:26,920 --> 01:52:30,960 Speaker 7: and changed who they are around Josh Allen Baltimore, around 2313 01:52:31,040 --> 01:52:35,680 Speaker 7: Lamar Jackson has built that roster around him. Do we 2314 01:52:35,680 --> 01:52:38,800 Speaker 7: talk about that with the Bengals? Do we talk about Man, 2315 01:52:38,880 --> 01:52:42,439 Speaker 7: Duke Tobin and Joe Burrow. No, you don't put those 2316 01:52:42,479 --> 01:52:44,560 Speaker 7: two hand in hand like you do with other franchises. 2317 01:52:44,960 --> 01:52:48,160 Speaker 7: It's been a miss and now you get to the 2318 01:52:48,160 --> 01:52:50,080 Speaker 7: point you're at where, well, if it's not Joe Burrow, 2319 01:52:50,320 --> 01:52:51,559 Speaker 7: who's gonna help us this year? 2320 01:52:52,840 --> 01:52:57,679 Speaker 6: Scheme? Coach, personnel? No, no, no, that's the issue. 2321 01:52:57,760 --> 01:53:01,320 Speaker 2: Bengals and Packers, Sunday four twenty five on ESPN fifteen 2322 01:53:01,400 --> 01:53:05,200 Speaker 2: thirty Monday Night Football Tonight, Chiefs and Jags. Kansas City 2323 01:53:05,280 --> 01:53:06,920 Speaker 2: is getting three and a half. 2324 01:53:07,840 --> 01:53:10,759 Speaker 7: You know, I hate to say it, but I trust 2325 01:53:10,840 --> 01:53:15,519 Speaker 7: Kansas City. I just trust them getting points they're laying 2326 01:53:15,720 --> 01:53:20,040 Speaker 7: or laying. Yeah, I seeing what they did last week, 2327 01:53:20,080 --> 01:53:22,720 Speaker 7: it felt like they figured something out offensively. As the 2328 01:53:22,760 --> 01:53:24,680 Speaker 7: season goes on, they're gonna get healthier and healthier. I 2329 01:53:24,680 --> 01:53:28,960 Speaker 7: think Xavier Worthy is questionable. Tonight, they're gonna get Richie 2330 01:53:29,040 --> 01:53:36,240 Speaker 7: Rice back. I just I trust more Kansas City. I 2331 01:53:36,240 --> 01:53:37,960 Speaker 7: think Liam Cohen's done a good job. 2332 01:53:38,400 --> 01:53:38,760 Speaker 6: He will. 2333 01:53:38,800 --> 01:53:41,800 Speaker 7: I just don't trust Trevor Lawrence to that extent, not yet, 2334 01:53:42,080 --> 01:53:45,280 Speaker 7: not yet, But you want to change that narrative? Sure, 2335 01:53:45,479 --> 01:53:46,080 Speaker 7: beat the Chiefs. 2336 01:53:46,120 --> 01:53:50,439 Speaker 2: Tonight coverage on ESPN fifteen thirty starts at seven o'clock. 2337 01:53:50,520 --> 01:53:53,880 Speaker 2: You see football.

At least we had a lot of 2368 01:55:25,280 --> 01:55:28,080 Speaker 2: teams come back from big deficits. I'm not sure there 2369 01:55:28,160 --> 01:55:31,080 Speaker 2: was a comeback that was more striking than the one 2370 01:55:31,160 --> 01:55:35,280 Speaker 2: that the Arizona Cardinals allowed. They lose to the Tennessee 2371 01:55:35,320 --> 01:55:37,800 Speaker 2: Titans twenty two to twenty one. This was a game 2372 01:55:37,880 --> 01:55:42,440 Speaker 2: where they appear to salted away with a seventy six 2373 01:55:42,560 --> 01:55:45,600 Speaker 2: yard touchdown run by Amari Demarcado, who's a running back, 2374 01:55:46,200 --> 01:55:48,920 Speaker 2: But as we have often seen in recent years, I 2375 01:55:48,920 --> 01:55:51,960 Speaker 2: don't get it, he decides to drop the ball before 2376 01:55:52,320 --> 01:55:53,440 Speaker 2: crossing the goal line. 2377 01:55:54,040 --> 01:55:54,680 Speaker 6: What is this?

Yes, Arizona 2381 01:56:07,320 --> 01:56:08,960 Speaker 7: think of how they lost, Yes, Shad, they lost on that. 2382 01:56:09,080 --> 01:56:12,200 Speaker 7: And then there was another play where they intercept cam Ward. Yeah, 2383 01:56:12,320 --> 01:56:14,840 Speaker 7: guy that intercepts the ball, drops it, two guys go 2384 01:56:14,920 --> 01:56:16,520 Speaker 7: to land on it, it squirts out into the end 2385 01:56:16,600 --> 01:56:19,600 Speaker 7: zone and Tyler Lockett recovers it. Right, like you want 2386 01:56:19,600 --> 01:56:21,800 Speaker 7: to talk about a bad Monday, weird kind. 2387 01:56:21,720 --> 01:56:24,880 Speaker 2: Of flukey thing.
