1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,440 Speaker 1: Got a big football game Monday. You know, when I 2 00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:07,120 Speaker 1: believe the Steelers will win a playoff game when they're 3 00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:09,400 Speaker 1: not getting blown out at the end of the first half, 4 00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:12,560 Speaker 1: just sort of call them about this for the trip. 5 00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:15,680 Speaker 1: And by the way, Pittsburgh still does have a daily newspaper. 6 00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:19,919 Speaker 1: Let's put that fricking crap to bed. The Postcausette wasn't 7 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:22,079 Speaker 1: the be all end all. If it was, it would 8 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 1: still exist. So let's go back in time. Last year 9 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 1: Steelers down by twenty one to Baltimore halftime. The year before, 10 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 1: down by twenty one to Buffalo midway through the second quarter, 11 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:42,800 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one playoffs, down by twenty one seven to 12 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 1: Kansas City at halftime, twenty twenty playoffs, down by twenty 13 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:53,479 Speaker 1: eight to Cleveland after the first quarter, to Cleveland at akroshore, 14 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:57,639 Speaker 1: and then the twenty seventeen playoffs, down by twenty one 15 00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 1: to Jacksonville early in the second quarter. And a lot 16 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 1: of you don't seem to think CJ. Stroud is a 17 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 1: big worry because he's not that good. Consider this, They 18 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 1: lost to Blake Bortles in twenty seventeen and to Tim 19 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: Tebow way back when twenty eleven but Monday Night is 20 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,479 Speaker 1: a clean slate and the Steelers are gonna win. 21 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:25,839 Speaker 2: Probably. 22 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 1: Actually, there's a SoundBite later gonna play Chris Sims a CBS. 23 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 1: It's all true, and after you hear it, you're thinking, Wow, 24 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 1: there's just no way the Steelers have a chance. In 25 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: a point of discussion that he brings up that I'll 26 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 1: mention now is that Rogers don't want to get hit. 27 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 2: It hasn't all year. And a friend of mine pointed out, 28 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 2: after a. 29 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 1: Week or so of discussing that Rogers didn't want Garrett 30 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: to break the sack record in that game against Cleveland 31 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 1: and seventeen, and that's why he was getting rid of 32 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: the ball so quick. A friend of mine pointed out, rightly, 33 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 1: Rogers is been getting rid of the ball that quick 34 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,919 Speaker 1: all year to avoid being hit, not just to deny 35 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:17,079 Speaker 1: Garrett the sack record. So will Rogers quite frankly, grow 36 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: a set and hang onto the ball and risk getting 37 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: hit to make plays Monday night, because I think he's 38 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 1: gonna need to with the pressure Uston figures to apply. 39 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 2: All I ask Aaron. 40 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: Is that you don't prove that all Yeller rate no dog, No, 41 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: I mean, let's talk truth. That's true, he don't want 42 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,799 Speaker 1: to get hit. Hey, if I was forty two, I'm 43 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: sixty five. Come to think of it, I never did 44 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: want to get hit. But that's big. That's a point 45 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 1: of discussion. And again, if he don't want to get 46 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 1: hit Monday night and they lose because of it, or 47 00:02:55,919 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: if it's a factor, I just wouldn't bring him back 48 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 1: next year. How About there was a tweet I think 49 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 1: from the B team. You know how Rogers and Tomlin 50 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: and Cam all walk off the field together after games, 51 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: and Cam did a SoundBite about how he wants to 52 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: bring Rogers into the Steelers tradition. 53 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,239 Speaker 2: I got a better idea, fellas, how about. 54 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 1: We revisit the old Steeler tradition of walking off the 55 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 1: field after winning a playoff game. You know what, I'm 56 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: sick to death of all this absolute horseman or about 57 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: Steelers tradition and the logo. Yo, the tradition is to 58 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: win playoff games. Do it Monday or immediately after. Shut 59 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 1: the frig up, because this is big to me. I 60 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: know all you out there have grown to accept me 61 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: theocrity and except well never had a losing season, Well 62 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: every game meant something that you go f yourselves win 63 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: the friggin playoff game. Not to be critical. This is 64 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: the Mark Madden Show. You can follow me on Twitter 65 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: at Mark Madden. Next, let's talk now to Tommy Radio. 66 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: Tom those last five playoff losses I just talked about 67 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 1: have little bearing on this game. But all of that 68 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 1: is kind of scary, ain't it. 69 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 2: It is pretty scary. 70 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:23,839 Speaker 3: But I will say this, most of what you just 71 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 3: laid out there, save from probably Jacksonville and maybe that 72 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 3: Cleveland game too with Baker. 73 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 2: And that was the COVID game, empty stadium. 74 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 3: Those were spaceship level offenses that the Steelers were having 75 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 3: to go up against Kansas City with Patrick Mahomes lamar 76 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 3: as an MVP caliber player last year with Baltimore, Josh 77 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 3: Allen and the Buffalo Bills. Right right, superman, You're not 78 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 3: getting that in this game against the Texans. I think 79 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 3: the offense for the Texans is underrated, but it is not, 80 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 3: you know, that kind of level. 81 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, but you're getting the equivalent of that on the 82 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 2: other side of the ball. But I take that. I 83 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 2: just saw Matt Williamson. 84 00:04:56,320 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 1: Matt Williamson, our guru, the former pro and college Scott 85 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,799 Speaker 1: He thinks this Houston defense is one of the best he's. 86 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 3: Ever ever seen. Wow, that's saying a lot. You are 87 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 3: getting that on that side of the ball. But I 88 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 3: take that because that's more conducive. I think to keep 89 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 3: in the game close. If it's a superstar Yeah. 90 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: Like with the superstar defense, you could at least, you know, 91 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 1: force a rock fighters your teth ball. Yeah, you know, 92 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: protect the ball and if your defense keeps it in there, 93 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: which is so outdated, but it's the Steeler way and 94 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 1: Tomlin's lucky. It's also yeah to me go ryands his 95 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: way with Houston. Of those games I mentioned, which was 96 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 1: the worst, I would say the loss to Cleveland at home. 97 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: It was the COVID year empty act for sure, but 98 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: Cleveland scored on the first play, that batsnap, that fumbled 99 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 1: that they recovered in the end zone, and it just 100 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:42,799 Speaker 1: kept getting worse. 101 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 3: I mean, if you're gonna let me count twenty seventeen, 102 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 3: that's gotta be the worst one. 103 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 2: The one against Jacksonville. 104 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 3: The team could have gone on a legitimate run that year, 105 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 3: the Jesse James year when he fumbled. 106 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 2: Oh, they had been in the AFC Championship game, just Chai. 107 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 3: Last year, Ben still had his superpowers. He was still 108 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 3: one of the best quarterbacks in football. Then, like that 109 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 3: was a total blown opportunity. Then yeah, yeah, no, no 110 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 3: question about that. But in terms of pure depression factor, 111 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 3: the Cleveland one, yeah, that takes the case. 112 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: And again the COVID the empty state and that kind 113 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 1: of added to the depression though, and the snap over 114 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 1: the head from Pouncy right away to set the tone. 115 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: I was depressed before the game started because of the pandemic. 116 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 1: That was a ah, a bad time for for everybody. 117 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: I suppose. The deceptive one was down twenty one to 118 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 1: seven to Kansas City at halftime because Watt had that 119 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: that scoop and score. Uh was that? Was that a 120 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 1: stripping score? I mean, I forget if he made the sack, but. 121 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 2: I don't remember if he knocked the ball loose. He 122 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:35,919 Speaker 2: scored the touchdown. 123 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: We should remember it's the only freaking big plays made 124 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: in the playoff game ever. But the Steelers had a 125 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: modicum of hope because it was seven zerl after that play. 126 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, and that didn't happen until the second quarter of 127 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 3: the game. So like the defense was getting off the 128 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 3: field against that Chiefs offense. Then they just woke up 129 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:52,480 Speaker 3: and then. 130 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: It was then boom boom, boom boom. I recall you 131 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 1: know where I watched that game? I I didn't. 132 00:06:58,760 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 2: I don't know. I went to Vegas. 133 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 1: There was a concert or something, so I didn't have 134 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,039 Speaker 1: a viewing party, so I didn't get paid here and 135 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: I lost money because I always do there. I was 136 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 1: watching with mister Friday afternoon, and after what scored the touchdown, 137 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: but the kids City got the ball right away and 138 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 1: started to move it. I turned to MFA and said, 139 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 1: I think all we did was piss Mahomes off, and they. 140 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 2: Just like you said, ran up three quick scores before 141 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 2: the half. 142 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 3: I will say this, The sneaky one that they were 143 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 3: kind of in was the Pills one when Mason was 144 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 3: the starting quarterback. They were down twenty one nothing, but 145 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 3: at one point in the fourth quarter it was twenty 146 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 3: four to seventeen. Mason brought him back to within one score. 147 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 3: The defense allowed Josh Allen to go right down the 148 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 3: field on the next position. But like, that's kind of 149 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 3: the sneaky one that they were in, and it's so 150 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 3: funny that Rudolph was the quarterback for it. 151 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 2: You're never out of a game when you have Mason 152 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 2: Rudolph quarterback. 153 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: I just said before might being two hurt on Rogers 154 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: about him not wanting to get hit, and he's got 155 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: to get over that for this game Sunday and should 156 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: be criticized after the season if we look back and 157 00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: maybe recognize that as a trend we didn't spot for 158 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: a long time. 159 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 3: I mean, what would be to gain the hanging in 160 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 3: the pocket, the more usage of the tight ends going 161 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 3: down the seams. 162 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 2: Those something. They just don't have that many weapons. I mean, yeah, 163 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 2: I know that, but that doesn't mean just flip the ball. 164 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 3: Well maybe it does, he does, because gamelan Warren are 165 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 3: your best weapons and you just flip the ball out 166 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 3: to that. 167 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 2: I don't. 168 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: I just think if they lose this game, the Rogers 169 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 1: experiment was a failure and should not be repeated. And 170 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: I don't give a frig if he walks off the 171 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 1: field with Tom Win and Cam after the game. 172 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 2: I hate crap like that. 173 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 3: By the way, Well they really set it up cut 174 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 3: and dry at the beginning of the season that we 175 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 3: got to win a playoff game. That's got to be 176 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 3: the goal here, which is lowering the bar for this franchise. 177 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 2: For that to be the goal. But that was the goal, 178 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 2: so of course it's a failure. 179 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 1: The mark's out there think they already did win a 180 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: playoff game with the playoffs playoff game against Baltimore. 181 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,079 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean they absolutely have their out right now, 182 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 3: their spin zone because they have the division title, they 183 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 3: can say, well, you didn't do that last year, so 184 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 3: that's an improvement. 185 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 2: I get really mad you were about to get rid. 186 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 1: I get really mad when I hear about this tradition, 187 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: like when Cam sites crap like that, Cam, you have 188 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 1: won second nine playoff game, Shut the freak up and 189 00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: produce pay your bills. That's what this team needs to do. 190 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 1: And I just don't want to hear about the dritch. 191 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 1: You know why. I'm sixty five. I lived the real 192 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 1: tradition the seventies. Then I sawt revived by Ben Roethlisberger, 193 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: Troy Pulamalu, James Ferrier, Real Steelers. They didn't care who 194 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 1: they walked off the field with. They just won freaking games. 195 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 3: All of that stuff loses its luster and loses its 196 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 3: appeal when you don't win playoff games. When you win 197 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 3: playoff games, then those are cool little stories. It's like Oh, 198 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 3: it's cool that Cam and Tomlin do that and Rogers 199 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 3: is joining in. Yeah, but they've won what one playoff 200 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,959 Speaker 3: game between those three in the past eight years, nine years? 201 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 3: Tomlin and Cam, Well, I think it's appropriate to Tom Win, 202 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 3: Cam and Aaron walk off the field together. It's the 203 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 3: three stooges of football con men, at least at this point. 204 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 3: I mean, Rogers you know, evolved to that, and Cam 205 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 3: and Tomlin have always been that. These losses, falling behind 206 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 3: quick and coming on flat, that's got to reflect on Tomlin, right, 207 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:58,199 Speaker 3: no question about it. That's all coaching. Playoff losses, yeah, 208 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 3: I think so, that's all coaching right now. That's all 209 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 3: about having the team with the right mindset and also 210 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,439 Speaker 3: having a good schematic game plan against a playoff caliber opponent. 211 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 3: So in every aspect you break that down, that's a 212 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:10,079 Speaker 3: failure on coaching. 213 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,439 Speaker 1: Just around the corner, gonna go over the key matchups 214 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: of the game Monday night and we will grade them 215 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 1: from A to B and predict their outcome. That's right 216 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 1: cliched formulaic talk radio. Just around the corner here on 217 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 1: one oh five to nine, always a great rock and 218 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 1: roll day on the Doublem show, but to lead off 219 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: with Zep. 220 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,719 Speaker 2: And now faces don't get no better than that. 221 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 1: That's my childhood in a nutshell led Zeppelin Faces and 222 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:43,720 Speaker 1: we got UFO later, h Tom. 223 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 2: Let's go over the matchups in this game. 224 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 1: We talked about them some this week, but let's grade 225 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: them A through F in terms of importance in terms 226 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: of deciding the game. It's cliche talk radio, but let's 227 00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: give them a grade, and that predicts how they wind up. 228 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 1: First off, Porter versus Nico Collins. How important who wins? 229 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 2: That's a pretty important one. I don't know if it's 230 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:06,840 Speaker 2: the most important one. 231 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 1: Well, first off, do you think they will man up 232 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: Porter on Nico Collins? Because yes, a lot of people 233 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: don't think that's a guarantee. That they might just let 234 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 1: the corners play their sides. Yeah, I think they should 235 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 1: do that. 236 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 3: I don't think they're good enough team to let their 237 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 3: corners play their sides right now, their secondary corner. 238 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 1: I don't either, And Nico Collins torched them a couple 239 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 1: of years ago, so they know how specifically dangerous he 240 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: can be against them. 241 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 3: I put that, like Bee, maybe the second most important 242 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 3: matchup for the Steelers in this game. Joey Porter Junior 243 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,680 Speaker 3: is a very physical corner of course too, and Nico 244 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 3: Collins is a big physical receiver, so that matchup works 245 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 3: in the Steelers favors that way, like not a lot 246 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 3: of corners can hang with Collins. 247 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I gave it a bee as well. 248 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 1: I think Porter wins the matchup if you too, And boy, 249 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: that is a faux pas by Tomlin and his lackey 250 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: what's his name, Tarol Austin if they don't pursue that. 251 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 2: Matchup, absolutely, I think they're that's. 252 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 1: Like captain obvious level when when Porter hasn't allowed a 253 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:58,560 Speaker 1: touchdown on like almost fifteen hundred consecutive snaps. 254 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 3: I don't want to make the Texans wide receiver room 255 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,320 Speaker 3: out to be like the Steelers though, where it's just 256 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 3: like one guy in the Pips like Higgins and Noel. 257 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,199 Speaker 3: The two rookies and Kirk are solid options as well, 258 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 3: but Joey Porter Junior needs to be on Collins. He's 259 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 3: the clear number one. 260 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 1: Is that a gladys Knight and the Pips right, you 261 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 1: should have said pimps like like like what he Harrelson 262 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:20,559 Speaker 1: in White Man can't chump? Okay, next matchup Stingley versus 263 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:21,839 Speaker 1: DK Metcalf. 264 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 3: I'm gonna say that's like C or D, but I 265 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 3: don't know if that's gonna be the matchup. The Texans 266 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 3: are good enough to just split the field left right, 267 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 3: and that's how they've done it all years. He's really good. Yeah, 268 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 3: and that's been their mo o all year. Like they 269 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 3: haven't followed. They've just left right in the field with 270 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:42,440 Speaker 3: Stingley and Lassiter, and DK Metcalf's the best option as 271 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 3: far as the receiver for the Steelers mark, but he 272 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 3: does not put the fear in other defense's hearts like 273 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 3: a Jamar Chase or Justin Jefferson. I don't think DK 274 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,559 Speaker 3: Metcalf comes in and just blows up how the Texans 275 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 3: operate all of a sudden. 276 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 1: So what grade would you give it? Like, I'll go 277 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,199 Speaker 1: D on that one. Actually, I'm giving it a C. I. 278 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,680 Speaker 1: I don't think regardless of the coverage pursued, whether it's just, 279 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: you know, leave guys on their sides, or they do 280 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,839 Speaker 1: man up Stingley and I tend to agree with Lassi 281 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: or I think they probably do just let the guys 282 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: play their side. It's just what they've done that is 283 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,319 Speaker 1: their moo, But I don't think Metcalf's going to have 284 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:13,679 Speaker 1: much of. 285 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 2: A productive game. 286 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,680 Speaker 3: No, I don't either, because either one of them is 287 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 3: a very solid corner and I think is gonna shut 288 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 3: him down well. 289 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 2: And the offense does know how to use DK anyway. 290 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 3: That's kind of where I put it at d Is 291 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 3: just because like, yeah, he might have one big play, 292 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:28,319 Speaker 3: but both him the. 293 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: Receiver sapotage as well. That said, he's been a total 294 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,200 Speaker 1: bust this year. Remember was it yesterday? I said he 295 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 1: said six games this year of under fifty yards receiving. Tom, 296 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 1: I'd like to retract that I was wrong. 297 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:42,439 Speaker 2: It's eight eight. 298 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 1: Games this year of under fifty yards receiving and one 299 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 1: exactly at fifty. 300 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 3: He's just not a number one, like a true number one, 301 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 3: no matter where you put him in this league. Matt 302 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 3: Williamson's been on that forever. We should listen to him earlier. 303 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 3: He's a good wide receiver, but he needs compliments aroun him. 304 00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 3: Matt Williamson, Oh yeah, we should have listened to his compliment. 305 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 3: He needs more compliments around him. He's not just this, 306 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 3: you know, top five receiver that can drag an offense 307 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 3: along his back. 308 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 2: Okay, here's probably the souper de jure the Steelers tackles 309 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 2: versus Houston's pass rushers. 310 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 3: What's your greade new wins that's gotta be a I 311 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 3: think that's the number one matchup. 312 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: It's the most likely, and those it is the basis 313 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 1: on which we're assigning the grades. I think it's the 314 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 1: most likely of the matchups to determine who wins the game. 315 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 3: It's hard to not pick that Houston wins that matchup. 316 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 3: It's the best edge rushing duo that you have in 317 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 3: the league. Now, it's not as deep as make me 318 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 3: like the Steelers, who can put four out there, but 319 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 3: those two are all you need in Houston. 320 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 1: Well all I've heard for how many weeks now, and 321 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 1: you have as well. This Dylan Cook's a great story. 322 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 1: He might be a starting level left tackle. Let me 323 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: tell you how that goes. Boom boom, I'll go the last. 324 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 1: He just ain't good. He's there no matter how you 325 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: want to romanticize how he's played. He's done fine during 326 00:14:56,520 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 1: the stretch and he may be staking out turf as 327 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 1: a legit backup who can survive in the league for 328 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 1: a while. 329 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 3: Absolutely, but he's a four stringer Dylan Cook should be 330 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 3: treated like he is a bomb on the practice squad 331 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 3: in this game. He has not played like that in 332 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 3: recent weeks, but that's what the mindset should be as 333 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 3: far as helping him out is concerned. It's got to 334 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 3: be on Troy Fatanu to be on that island, and 335 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 3: if it's Anderson, if it's Hunter, when they break that 336 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 3: defensive huddle, you got to go one on one on 337 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 3: those guys most of the time in this game. 338 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 2: You do, bet boy? I bet they don't. 339 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 1: In fact, I bet they sabotaged and slow down little 340 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 1: offense they have by just you know, chipping with the 341 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,720 Speaker 1: running back, you know, doubling all the time with the 342 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 1: tight end, you know, using the extra offensive. 343 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 2: Lineman on both sides. 344 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know, but on both sides, but just 345 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: doing everything they can to slow the rush down. And 346 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: I get that, but it could well be at the 347 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: expense of their offense. I think they need to take 348 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 1: some chances here, and you have put Rogers at risk. 349 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 3: How much of a chance is it, though, to trust 350 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 3: your first round pick from a couple of years ago 351 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 3: go at right tackle, who, by all accounts has been 352 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 3: probably your best offensive lineman this year and looks like 353 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 3: I agree. 354 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 1: I would give Cook the help and I would let 355 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: Fatan who sink it or swim against Anderson, and if 356 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 1: he fails, well, you know it's part of his progress 357 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 1: as a second year guy, really a first year guy 358 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 1: because he was hurt all of last year. I think 359 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 1: he is a future all pro. But let's find out 360 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 1: where he's at right now. Only because it's your best bet. 361 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 1: You're not doing anything for God's sakes in a playoff 362 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 1: game for Fatana's development, but but it's your best bet 363 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 1: to free up your offense at least a little bit 364 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 1: and have a better chance to win the game. 365 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 3: And Hutchinson a couple of weeks ago with Detroit, I 366 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 3: know he had two sacks in the game. I don't 367 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 3: know if those are all on Fatanu, but I felt 368 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 3: like a lot of that game was Fatanu won on 369 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 3: one on him and he was holding his own really well. 370 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 3: And Hutchinson's like and Anderson, the young and up and 371 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 3: coming stud edge rusher, so he's he's done that against 372 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 3: that quality of a pass rusher. I believe in Fatanu 373 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 3: in this game. I'm really high on his likelihood to 374 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 3: hold his own against these two. It's the other side 375 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:03,120 Speaker 3: that I'm worried about. 376 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 1: Say his name and he appears. Uh here, here's another 377 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 1: ringa ding dong dandy. Tom Houston's offensive line against the 378 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,720 Speaker 1: Steelers front seven Watt and so forth. 379 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 2: Who do you? How do you grade this matchup? How important? 380 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:16,160 Speaker 2: And who wins? 381 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 3: I might I wish I could go back and revise 382 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 3: it and make it be, but I'll keep be Joey 383 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 3: Porter on Nico. I'll make this my C matchup here 384 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 3: and the Steelers I think are. 385 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 2: Going he was signing one A, one B, one C, 386 00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 2: one D. 387 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 3: That's what I thought we were doing. Yes, No, I 388 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 3: just I'm all over the place. But yeah, so you're 389 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 3: greatest C. Yeah, sure, I'll give it a C. I 390 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,199 Speaker 3: think the Steelers should and will win this matchup and 391 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 3: create a lot of pressure and a lot of chaos 392 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 3: around C. J. 393 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:40,360 Speaker 2: Stroud. 394 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 3: It's just a matter of if they'll do it as 395 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 3: much or more so than the Texans will to their offense, 396 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:47,720 Speaker 3: and I'm not so sure they'll get to that point. 397 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 1: Well, there's this assumption that the Houston offensive line is terrible, 398 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 1: and I don't think it's that good. It's not good if. 399 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 2: You want to go with trending. 400 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:56,920 Speaker 1: Though, they've not a lot of sack in the last 401 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: three games and only allowed one in the game before that. 402 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:04,199 Speaker 3: And I saw stat that most of the passing yardage 403 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 3: that the Texans a crew, forty three percent of it 404 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 3: is via yards after the catch. It's a lot of 405 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 3: quick stuff with CJ. Stroud and getting the ball into 406 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 3: the playmaker's hands. So just like you see Rogers do 407 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 3: on the Steeler side of things to avoid strong pass rushes, 408 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 3: the Texans will do that to the Steelers. 409 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 1: But I think not having a lot of sack in 410 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,200 Speaker 1: three games and only won the game before that will 411 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 1: imbue these guys with confidence, no doubt. And you know 412 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,479 Speaker 1: what I'd be saying in that offensive line room for Houston. 413 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 1: These guys are old, they're worn out, they're slow. There's 414 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: a couple guys that might be a problem. But the 415 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 1: big names ain't big names no more. They're not big 416 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:37,440 Speaker 1: performers no more. 417 00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 3: They can legitimately say we're getting better, we're rounding into form, 418 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 3: we're playing our best football right now. And you're right, 419 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 3: it's such a confidence thing on those offensive lines in 420 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 3: those trenches that that might just be enough for them 421 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,359 Speaker 3: to hold on so that Stroud can hit Collins for 422 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:53,679 Speaker 3: a couple of balls downfield. 423 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 1: How winnabl is this game? I vacillate. I'm gonna make 424 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:00,439 Speaker 1: my official prediction. I don't have to make it Monday, 425 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 1: do I. Yes, that's correct. Okay, I'll make my semi 426 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,640 Speaker 1: official prediction today. But right now, like as we talk, 427 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 1: I'm like fifty to fifty. I go back and forth, 428 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 1: but I got to tell you, the quality of the 429 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 1: Houston defense is swinging me in that direction. 430 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 2: I don't know, it feels like a very winnable game 431 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 2: for the Steelers. You're at home, well. 432 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 1: You don't forget. You could say sixty forty in favor 433 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,879 Speaker 1: of Houston. Heck, you could say ninety ten in favorite Houston, 434 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 1: but that still is win. 435 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 3: Of the winnable game. Right now, I think it's seventeen 436 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 3: thirteen Steelers. That's kind of where I'm at right now. 437 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,360 Speaker 3: I think your home, Mark Rodgers is going to make 438 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 3: it just that homer a big home remark. I'm a 439 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:35,640 Speaker 3: huge Steelers Mark. 440 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:36,159 Speaker 1: I mean, look at me. 441 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 3: I got a Steelers hat on a steel City sweatshirt 442 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 3: on Let's go Steelers. 443 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 1: You do, that's true? I have a penguin's hoodie on, 444 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 1: but I wear the same thing every day. It look 445 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 1: like a freaking unmade bit. This weight I've lost. I 446 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:50,439 Speaker 1: don't want to buy new clothes till I see what 447 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: wait I settle into. So I'm really I'm really no, 448 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,000 Speaker 1: it's cheap. I'm really like, it's like freaking Ron Cook. 449 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 1: I'm really baggy right now. That's how cheap him and 450 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:02,120 Speaker 1: Chad Johnson New Did you see that story? He says 451 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:04,920 Speaker 1: he lived at the Bengals facility his first two years 452 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:05,440 Speaker 1: to save money. 453 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 2: Nobody ever noticed. I've heard stories, you could do it, 454 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:08,959 Speaker 2: you could do it. 455 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 3: I've heard stories in the past two where he has 456 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 3: told younger athletes this, like I used to buy fake 457 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:15,680 Speaker 3: knockoff jewelry all the time, like all the change. 458 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 1: I respect him for saving money instead of just wasting 459 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 1: it like so many young athletes do. Don't forget you 460 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: could watch the Steeler game with me Monday night at 461 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Brewing Company in Creighton right off through twenty eight. 462 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: Biggest big screen TV, and I mean that it's the 463 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: biggest effing I mean as big as Circa in Las Vegas. 464 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 1: The Sports Book Biggest big screen TV in Pittsburgh. Certainly 465 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,679 Speaker 1: that's the kickoffs at eight o'clock have an icy light. 466 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 1: And I'll be there Sunday for the Penguin game too, 467 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 1: So it's an icy light weekend for the super genius. 468 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 2: Make it that for you as well. Tom. 469 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:54,119 Speaker 1: I hate the game's Monday.

I wish the game was I wish it 473 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:04,640 Speaker 1: was last night. I wish it was Sunday for sure. 474 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 3: Yeah. 475 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what pro football is supposed to be played. 476 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,439 Speaker 1: And how about the NFL bullied college and having their 477 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:11,919 Speaker 1: semifinal games on Thursday and. 478 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 3: Friday and Friday. I hate the Monday night game on 479 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,439 Speaker 3: the playoff schedule too. Playoffs got to be in the weekend, 480 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 3: Saturday Sunday, preferably Sunday, when football is supposed to be played. 481 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 2: That's what I hate about college football. Right now. 482 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:24,680 Speaker 3: We're at the biggest point of the college football season. 483 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 3: Mark they never play on Saturday. Saturday is the college 484 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,120 Speaker 3: football game. They haven't played on Saturdays for like two 485 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 3: or three weeks. 486 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 1: The formula I think should be adhered to. Is high 487 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 1: school Friday, College Saturday, one and four pm on Sunday, 488 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: one game Monday night, and I would honestly eliminate everything else, 489 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: but we're not going to put the toothpaste. 490 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,399 Speaker 2: Back in that tube. One five ninety X. 491 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 4: Tomorrow afternoon, the Pens go head to head against the Flames. 492 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:56,199 Speaker 4: Game time is three thirty.

Pittsburgh Penguins five nine d X The mark 495 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 4: Man one five. 496 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 2: Nine d X. 497 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 1: Matt Williamson tweets all kinds of statsy things that just again, 498 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: like like the Chris Sims SoundBite we're gonna play later, 499 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 1: makes me think the Steelers are in trouble against Houston. 500 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 1: He tweeted earlier Rodgers' lasting success rate when under pressure 501 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:36,160 Speaker 1: last in QB success rate went under pressure. Houston got 502 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 1: the third most pressures in the league this year. I corumba, 503 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 1: But on a lighter note, how about them Penguins six 504 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 1: wins in a row. The New Jersey Devils were disheveled 505 00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,359 Speaker 1: and made it easy. Skinner very good in goal. He 506 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:54,760 Speaker 1: made it easy too. Top of the crease, absorbed the 507 00:22:54,800 --> 00:23:01,479 Speaker 1: puck made some difficult saves look routine, so things are 508 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 1: going right for the Penguins even when they don't. 509 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 2: Case in point, they got a five on three, a 510 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 2: pretty long. 511 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,639 Speaker 1: One, like like ninety seconds, and it was the worst 512 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: five on three ever. New Jersey got like a couple 513 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:19,679 Speaker 1: shorthanded semi chances playing three on five, and then at 514 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 1: the very end of it, Carlson and sid made a 515 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: couple of passes, opened up a shot for Gino and 516 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 1: he buried a one. 517 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:27,680 Speaker 2: Timer a blast three and nil. 518 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 1: Carlson scored on the show one day score in the 519 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:38,159 Speaker 1: next game, and that's how that works, tom uh. 520 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 2: It was a rare, not not. 521 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 1: An easy win for the Penguins, but the result was 522 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,680 Speaker 1: never really in doubt, and the Penguins needed one of those. 523 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:48,680 Speaker 3: And it just felt good against the Devils because the 524 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:50,919 Speaker 3: Devils just feel like they've been beating the Penguins. 525 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 1: A lot these past couple of years when they're supposed 526 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:54,719 Speaker 1: to be a legit contender in the East, though they 527 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 1: are certainly betraying that. They looked pedestrian Jack Hughes, who 528 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 1: I said was overrated on yesterday's show, played exactly like overrated, 529 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 1: although his bummy brother. Uh Luke, Yeah, Luke, Luke, I 530 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 1: think in a different language that that's Connor Hayward and 531 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 1: he scored the goal. 532 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, Gino I thought was really good coming back. 533 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 3: Although you pointed something out to me before the show 534 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 3: today that I just thought was really funny and so 535 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 3: true about Gino where he just kept kind of drifting 536 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 3: towards the middle of the ice because he doesn't know 537 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 3: how to play. 538 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 1: Wag well or is it used to it. I think 539 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:29,400 Speaker 1: he can adjust to it. I thought Kendall and Chinnikov 540 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 1: played very well. I don't think their speed suffered because 541 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: of Gino's Yeah, So I thought that line did okay, 542 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 1: and it's worth keeping it together for now anyway, until 543 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 1: Novak inevitably turns into Novak Skinner's vanilla in goal. 544 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 2: But it's a consistent and flavorful vanilla. Tom. 545 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,159 Speaker 1: I had a bad start with the Penguins, lost his 546 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: first two starts, but why don't recall more than one 547 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 1: bad goal in his tenure here in Pittsburgh. 548 00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 2: He makes the stops he should now. 549 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 3: He seems like a professional goaltender, not a great one, 550 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 3: but at least an NHL quality goalie, and I just 551 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 3: don't feel the same about she loves. They need to 552 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 3: call Marashov up. They need to have the tandemby Skinner 553 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 3: in Myrshov and have that be their rotation. 554 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:14,200 Speaker 1: There's some people in the organization think that's how it'll 555 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:15,160 Speaker 1: play out after. 556 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 2: The Olympic break once they come back from the Olympics. 557 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,880 Speaker 2: Not nailed on that that'll happen, but it's at least 558 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:24,400 Speaker 2: the possibility. It gives them their best chance. I feel like, yeah, 559 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 2: I do too. 560 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think Shilloff sucks like I always say, 561 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:30,879 Speaker 1: but I don't think he's far from sucking. 562 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 2: But I just don't think he's good enough, not for 563 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 2: where this team is now trying to go and trying 564 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 2: to get. 565 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 1: I can't imagine for a second Archer's Shilloff's starting a 566 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 1: playoff game and me feeling good about it. 567 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 3: But the good news is Stuart Skinner has started the 568 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 3: past couple of Stanley Cup playoff games, and I'd like 569 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 3: to see the kids start a playoff game too in Mirshov. 570 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 3: So you got to bring that tandem up. That's got 571 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 3: to be your guys. Well, Skinner's played good, he's a professional. 572 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 3: When Connor McDavid shows up, I'll have more faith in Skinner. 573 00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 1: Then again, maybe not in game six or seven, but 574 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 1: McDavid is like ninety points in the last ten games, 575 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 1: and if I'm exaggerating, it's it's well, it is by 576 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 1: a lot, but you get the idea that five to 577 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 1: one three just see it. 578 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:10,159 Speaker 2: It was hilarious. 579 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:13,440 Speaker 1: It was like yakkty sacks level and then Gino hits 580 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:13,879 Speaker 1: a can. 581 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 2: And then he bails them out right at the end. 582 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it was gonna be a total complete 583 00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 3: failure until the absolute end of that. The passes from 584 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,439 Speaker 3: sidon Carlson too to set it all up. Carlson is 585 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 3: unbelievable right now. His home point streak, what was it 586 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,159 Speaker 3: at the penns PR thing just had it. He's at 587 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:32,360 Speaker 3: nine straight games with a home point. That's the longest 588 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 3: of his career in home games. It's unbelievable. And he's 589 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 3: at thirteen points in those nine games. 590 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 1: No, he had that little bit of a dip for 591 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 1: about two weeks during the I mean the one game 592 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 1: they blew against Anaheim, I think it was where they 593 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,440 Speaker 1: scored with point one second left, that was an own 594 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 1: goal with him gloving the puck into the net. But 595 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 1: he's really straightened out, and again this is his best 596 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:56,439 Speaker 1: season of the three at Pittsburgh. Whether that's motivated by 597 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: him getting ready to play in the Olympics for Sweden. 598 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 2: Why squhy Where the pen was that? Not Tom? Because 599 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 2: I'm not sure yet. 600 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 1: It's a very good team, but I am starting to 601 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: conclude that the Eastern Conference and the Metro Division are 602 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 1: not very good. 603 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the Penguins are actually in a really 604 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 3: good spot right now. It's unbelievable that they're just two 605 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 3: wins away if they sweep the weekend. They've completely erased 606 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 3: their eight game losing streak with an eight game winning streak, 607 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:24,119 Speaker 3: which is remarkable. They got games in hands still on 608 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 3: the Islanders. They're only two points behind the Islanders with 609 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:29,639 Speaker 3: two games in hand. They're in a good spot to 610 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 3: not just get a wild card, they're in a good 611 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:32,880 Speaker 3: spot to finish top three of the Metro right now. 612 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:36,199 Speaker 2: You know what the Penglins we're at right this second 613 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 2: is true. 614 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 1: Five hundred twenty one twelve and nine twenty one wins 615 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:44,200 Speaker 1: and twenty one losses. True, five hundred almost always gets 616 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 1: you into the playoffs. It's sort of a magic number. 617 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 1: And how about this. I didn't realize this until I 618 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 1: took like a closer. 619 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 2: Look at the standings. 620 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:55,880 Speaker 1: Twelve regulation losses is the fewest in the Eastern Conference, 621 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:02,919 Speaker 1: and like that contract. I mean, the Penguin should have 622 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 1: more losses than that, forty two games in in regulation, 623 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 1: but the numbers are. 624 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 2: The record is what it is. 625 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 3: Even though I think they're in a good spot right 626 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 3: now and it seems like they're trending towards top three 627 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:15,679 Speaker 3: in the metro, you still can't help but wonder what 628 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 3: could still be if they didn't have that eight game 629 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 3: losing streak, if they didn't blow those games to like 630 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 3: the Sharks and the Mammoth, and they would have been 631 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:25,640 Speaker 3: able to scratch maybe two or three more points out 632 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 3: of this with the games in hand that they have. 633 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,280 Speaker 3: I mean, you wouldn't be looking at the Islanders for 634 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 3: second place. You'd be looking at the Canes for first 635 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 3: place in the metro if that was the case. 636 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 1: Like you said, Carlson, that nine game points streak, he 637 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 1: talked about three goals and eleven assists. My god, he's 638 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: he's he's kind of being Eric Carlson again. Sid got 639 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: assists number one eighty seven. Last night there's the number again, 640 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 1: eighty seven that is the second most assists with one team. 641 00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 1: He passed Gretzky, and it doesn't seem like like like 642 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 1: anybody could pass Gretzky anything. Let's not forget after Gretzky 643 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: got traded from Edmonton, he bounster on like a two 644 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: dollar hooker. And speaking of two dollar hookers, the only 645 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 1: guy head of Sid on the list is Ray Bork, 646 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 1: who betrayed his career in Boston to get a Cup 647 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 1: he didn't deserve in Denver. Bork at one one one, 648 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 1: so SID will definitely catch him, barring cataclysmic circumstances. 649 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 2: At some point. 650 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 1: Sid's now had multiple points in four straight games, first 651 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 1: time he's done that since October of twenty nineteen. He 652 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 1: is just, I mean, the freaking guy, Like he's not 653 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 1: as fast as ever he had been faster, but at 654 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 1: thirty eight, he's still faster than almost anybody, and his 655 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 1: anticipation has increased to the point where he's picked up 656 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 1: a half a step that way probably right. 657 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 3: I was just gonna say, like, he's so smart now 658 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 3: that he can just position himself, he can make up 659 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 3: for his lack of speed and make you almost seem 660 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 3: like he hasn't lost a step at all, these milestony 661 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,560 Speaker 3: type things that he has, like last night, like I 662 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 3: didn't even know that mark until you brought it up 663 00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 3: to me just this second. Like they just almost always happen. 664 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 3: You're like to them now, like, yeah, he just passed Gretzky. 665 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 3: As far as assists with a single team is concerned, 666 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 3: it's just like, oh yeah, whatever, ho hum night for 667 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:06,719 Speaker 3: Sidney Crosby. 668 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 2: I guess it. 669 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 1: Reminds me the Bruins when I was a kid, when 670 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 1: EJ was there. They won the Cup in seventy and 671 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,040 Speaker 1: seventy two, but seventy seventy one was the year Dryden 672 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 1: was a rookie and the Canadians upset them in the 673 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 1: first round. But that was when they said all the records, 674 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 1: Like Esposito was seventy six goals and seventy six assists. 675 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 1: They just broke so many records, like I think Ken 676 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 1: Hodge was goals by a right wing. They just guys 677 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 1: did crazy stuff. And I think a guy named Wayne 678 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 1: Cashman said, I read it a book. He said, Hey, 679 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 1: all this record stuff, I can't keep track of it. 680 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 1: So if you do something after the game. Just stick 681 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 1: up your hand and I'll come around and shake it. 682 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 1: And it feels that way with Sid. Sid should be 683 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 1: telling us, you know, But again, of all the guys 684 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 1: I've worked with, he does not baskin that even for 685 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 1: a second. 686 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,160 Speaker 3: And he's got I think it's Brett Hall most goals 687 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 3: at age thirty eight. I think he's got that like 688 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 3: right in his sights. 689 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 2: Maybe it was Sakic. Hall has thirty seven goals at 690 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 2: age thirty eight. That's the most goals for thirty eight 691 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 2: year old. 692 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 3: It's gonna blow by that most points, most points hold 693 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 3: I got like that. That's probably his Sakic because he 694 00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 3: had a hundred point season when he was old. 695 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, in a much more wide open league where 696 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 1: points were more accessible. I'm not I'm not dissing Sackic, who, 697 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: by the way, is a great GM with the Alps 698 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 1: as well. 699 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:27,520 Speaker 3: Apparently it's Adam Oates with eighty two points. Oh that, 700 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 3: oh Sid, very doable. Adamos hid that weird stick. Do 701 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 3: you ever see it now? He saw it off the 702 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 3: toe of a stick. He had the shortest play I've 703 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 3: ever seen. To give him more touch looking up a 704 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 3: stick right now? That is extremely weird. It almost looks 705 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 3: like Happy Gilmore's putter. 706 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 2: Up next. You know where things are really cooking Tom 707 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 2: in 708 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 1: The hockey world Ottawa, Oh yes, Ontario, Canada,
