Huh, you're like, there's five seconds left 78 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 3: of it. I guess you're dad by ted And I 79 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 3: listened to the TV copy today. 80 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 4: They also tried to rationalize it. 81 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 3: I don't know, man, you've had I don't know, litt 82 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 3: less than twenty four hours to think about the way 83 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 3: that ended. 84 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 4: Where do you come down on that decision? Thereby Pete 85 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 4: Carroll the Raiders, Well, in the world. 86 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: Of legalized gambling, I think when you when you make 87 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: a decision like that, there are gonna be plenty of 88 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: people that will be really happy about it, and there 89 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: will be plenty of people that will not like it 90 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 1: at all. I mean, the reality is your kin points down, 91 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 1: so you need two scores. And so I could understand, 92 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: you know, if there were if there were a minute 93 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 1: and five seconds left instead of five seconds left, it'd 94 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: be easier. I mean, you have to get a field goal, 95 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 1: and you have to get a touchdown, so your opportunity 96 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: to get the field goal and save some time. But 97 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: they only had five seconds, and so I think if 98 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: you take the clock out of it and add again 99 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: a minute or you know, fifty seconds or whatever, I 100 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: think the decision is absolutely the right one because you 101 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 1: need two scores. But given the fact that there were 102 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: five seconds left in the game and you're not going 103 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: to even have an opportunity for an onset kick because 104 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: the clock is going to show triple zero, you know, 105 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 1: I can understand how people would look at that, and again, 106 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 1: some would be very happy. And as I said, I said, 107 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 1: this is going to be a decision here that some 108 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 1: people will really like and others will not be so 109 00:04:58,680 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: happy about it. 110 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 3: Problem caller text one eight hundred dembler herv grant. 111 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:10,160 Speaker 4: But just really real quick a follow up on that, Is. 112 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 3: There a possibility and I'm trying to look for I 113 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 3: don't know I'm reaching here. 114 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 4: As you would often point out, do. 115 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 3: You think Pete Carroll would care about sort of the 116 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,479 Speaker 3: optics of covering? Like does that something as a head 117 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 3: coach and again head coach in the NFL, Like you're 118 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 3: saying to yourself, Hey, we lost by one score, guys, 119 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 3: is there anything with that? 120 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 4: Maybe from Pete Carroll's side of things. 121 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 1: No, I mean, I honestly, Pete spent at this a 122 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 1: long time and it's had a really successful career. I 123 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: don't think I wouldn't think there'd be a head coach 124 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: that would look at that game and say, man, it's 125 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: going to look better on the resume that we only lost, 126 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,479 Speaker 1: you know, twenty four to seventeen instead of twenty four 127 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: to fourteen. And the reality is the Raiders won their 128 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: first game of the season Pete New England and Foxborough 129 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 1: and then had lost what ten of eleven. So it 130 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:07,159 Speaker 1: doesn't matter whether at that level of football, A lot 131 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 1: of levels, but especially in the NFL, you know, you 132 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 1: either win or you lose, and you're graded on that. 133 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,720 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter if you win by a point. It 134 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: doesn't matter if you lose by a point or you 135 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: lose by thirty points. It still goes in the l column. 136 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 7: So they coming into this game, the Broncos run game 137 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 7: was one of the biggest question marks so far this season, 138 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 7: but after yesterday they had three explosive run plays. 139 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 5: What are your thoughts on the Broncos run game? 140 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: Hey, Nick, I should have said hello, I didn't even 141 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: realize you were there. I thought it was better yesterday. 142 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 1: My just you know how I viewed the game. Calling 143 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:49,159 Speaker 1: the game, I thought R. J. Harvey looked significantly more 144 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: comfortable and just and just ran the ball better. I 145 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,159 Speaker 1: thought he was patient at times. I thought he was 146 00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:03,159 Speaker 1: explosive even on runs in between the tackles. You know, 147 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,159 Speaker 1: and I think we know that it takes sometimes, it 148 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: takes a while for rookies, even really talented rookies, to 149 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 1: kind of settle in to the pro game. The speed 150 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 1: of the game, the size of the athletes, what you're 151 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 1: asked to do. It it's much much. It was much 152 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: more simple in college than it is in the NFL. 153 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: There's all sorts of little things that you know, you 154 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: got to be able to deal with. So yeah, I thought, 155 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 1: I thought, I thought it was a It was a 156 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: very very good effort by the Broncos, and in particular, 157 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: I really like the way that RJ ran the ball yesterday. 158 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 3: Does that performance by r J Harvey along with I 159 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 3: guess Jeli McLoughlin and Tyler Badat, does that answer whatever 160 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 3: questions we might have still had about the running game. 161 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 4: Was there still more to prove? 162 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: Well, I mean there's always there's always, you know, things 163 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: to prove. I mean that's what guys do every single week. 164 00:07:57,520 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: But I will I will say this, I think, you know, 165 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: like the Raiders were thirty first to thirty second ranked 166 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: against the run. I mean they might not. They certainly 167 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: don't have a very good team, but defensively, I mean 168 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 1: they're a middle of the pack defense against the rush. 169 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: I think they're fifteen or sixteen, so they've been that 170 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: had been one of these strengths I would say of 171 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 1: a team that's not very good. So yeah, I think 172 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 1: I think there's something build on. I would say I 173 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: would be more excited just about what I saw from RJ. 174 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 1: Harvey in terms of and I don't even know if 175 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: I can quantify this, but I know what it looks like. 176 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,439 Speaker 1: And when he ran the ball, he was decisive, he 177 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 1: had times, was patient, he had an explosion to him 178 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: when he put that foot in the ground. He's built 179 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: low to the ground. I just see a guy that 180 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: yesterday looked much more comfortable and improved as opposed to 181 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: maybe what he looked like way early in the season. 182 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,080 Speaker 7: What would you say to some of those fans who 183 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,439 Speaker 7: seem to be in a panic mode when they look 184 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 7: at this Broncos defense because they saw something on Sunday 185 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 7: that hadn't happened all season long, where the Raiders actually 186 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 7: moved the ball down on their first drive and actually score. 187 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 7: Are you winning more towards that panic concern side, or 188 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 7: is just like okay, well these are sort of things 189 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 7: that can happen to a defense at a given time. 190 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, Nick, you would know. I don't think 191 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 1: we have any defenses in professional football today that are 192 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: every single time they take the field that they're just 193 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: expected to completely shut down whomever they're playing. I mean, 194 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 1: teams are teams are too good of their schemes every week. 195 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 1: I think. I think the challenge for the Broncos during 196 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 1: the last however many games of the regular season and 197 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 1: into the postseason will be if you look at them defensively, 198 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: you say, how do we how do we go about 199 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 1: attacking this team? I mean, to me, it's pretty simple. 200 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 1: You do not want to get into third down and 201 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 1: eight plus, so you got to manage first and second down. 202 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 1: You've got to stay on the field and you have 203 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 1: to stay ahead of the chains. So you can't you 204 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 1: can't have a negative plan first down because you turn 205 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: those edge pass rushers loose and the guys in the middle, 206 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 1: and you know, the Broncos are good in the vacuum 207 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 1: as well. If you if you have to throw the 208 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,719 Speaker 1: ball and they know you have to throw the ball. 209 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:34,439 Speaker 1: The Broncos have I think a tremendous advantage in that regard, 210 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:36,679 Speaker 1: So you don't have to be the smartest gun in 211 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 1: the room to figure like, hey, we've got to be 212 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 1: able to run the ball and be patient, stay ahead 213 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: of the chains, and then if it's third down to 214 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: three or four, you know we have a much much 215 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: better chance to pick up a first down against this defense. 216 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 4: All right, last what I got for you, Dave. 217 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:51,680 Speaker 3: Appreciate you giving us some time here on day off, 218 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 3: but I wanted to ask you about the Chiefs for 219 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 3: a moment. I don't know if you've got a chance 220 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 3: to catch that game last night. Super dominant performance by 221 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 3: that defense. That Houston Texans defense might goodness, holy cow, 222 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 3: but they officially mathematically cannot win the division. So the 223 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 3: Broncos and the Chargers are all it's left. And by 224 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 3: the way, I did see today that if the Broncos 225 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 3: beat the Packers next week and the Chiefs beat the Chargers, 226 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 3: I believe, according to Eric Delala, the Broncos will lock 227 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 3: up not only a playoff spot, but also win the 228 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 3: division at the same time if they both. If they 229 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 3: if they just get the Packers game, they get the 230 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,839 Speaker 3: division or they get the playoff spot. I think I 231 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 3: have it right. So anyways, it's one of your thoughts 232 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 3: on the Chiefs and why why it happened the way 233 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 3: it did this year, and is this the sign of 234 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 3: a trend that is them losing the end of this 235 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 3: dynasty or is this just a blip And we'll look 236 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 3: back on this and say, well, okay, that that happens 237 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 3: to every good team every so often. 238 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think probably Ryan a little bit of all that, 239 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 1: you know, I think that I mean, they've been to 240 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 1: the last three Super Bowls and so that that extends 241 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: their season a month and a half three straight years, 242 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: so they want to They won a bunch of games 243 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 1: last year, a bunch of one score games. They haven't 244 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: been able to do that this year. I think sometimes 245 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: just the football gods make sure that things are even 246 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 1: out or relatively evened out in that regard. And you know, 247 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 1: when I when I see the Chiefs, the defense, which 248 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 1: has really been good the last couple of years, I 249 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: thought they were much better in the second half last night. 250 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 1: Didn't They didn't seem to have the edge in the 251 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 1: first half at all. But what I see from the 252 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,560 Speaker 1: Chiefs offense is way, way, way too many drop passes. 253 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's uh, it's astounding how many times 254 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,840 Speaker 1: Racie or Rice and even Chelsea from time to time 255 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 1: and they just put the ball in the ground and you're, 256 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: you know, no team is good enough to overcome that. 257 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 1: But and then I thought it was an interesting call. 258 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,120 Speaker 1: I'm not saying it wasn't the right call, but you 259 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 1: know that game is tied to Keen fourth quarter and 260 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: you got the ball fourth down in the yard and 261 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,559 Speaker 1: a half on your on thirty and you know, you 262 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 1: you you throw a ball that is incomplete, Well, you're 263 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,439 Speaker 1: you know you're going to give up points in that situation. 264 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,439 Speaker 1: So and you know, to me, that was I won't 265 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 1: say it was a panic move, but it was a 266 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:21,959 Speaker 1: really aggressive move by Andy in terms of realizing, hey, 267 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: this is a do or die situation. We we have 268 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 1: to find a way to win this. And I also 269 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 1: think it was a byproduct that decision, a little bit 270 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: of a byproduct of the success they've had the last 271 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: three years in situations like that. It just seems almost 272 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: happening all the time where Mahomes will make something happen 273 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: in fourth down and five and they convert and then 274 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 1: they go in and score. But it didn't happen this time. 275 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,199 Speaker 3: Did not happen this time, Dave, appreciate you man, Thank 276 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 3: you so much for giving us some time today on 277 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 3: your day off. And we'll check in with you on 278 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 3: Wednesday and I'll look forward to it. 279 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,559 Speaker 1: Ye, see you guys on Wednesday. 280 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 4: All right, Thank you the best. 281 00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 6: Hi. 282 00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 3: Radio partner Dave Logan, voice of the Broncos, as well 283 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 3: earning a couple of nice days for himself, obviously after 284 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 3: a very busy time. You know, Dave one of the 285 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 3: hardest working people I know. And if you guys don't 286 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 3: know from behind the scenes, I imagine you wonder how 287 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 3: he is in so many places at once. He calls 288 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 3: the games, he does a radio show, he coaches championship 289 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 3: level high school football among them, as many other requirements. 290 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 3: So very busy man, so definitely earned a couple of 291 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 3: days five six six nighting Zeros are Kawe Common Spirit, 292 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 3: Heal text Line and Ryan Edwards Nick Ferguson in the 293 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 3: studio with You're gonna have Ian Rappaport joining us here 294 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 3: in about twelve minutes. Get his thoughts on not only 295 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 3: the Broncos win streak, but we'll ask about the Chiefs 296 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 3: as well, and again seems appropriate since Nick decided to 297 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 3: show up in Kifs here today. 298 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 4: So back to the Broncos here for a moment. How 299 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 4: do you you know? 300 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 3: You asked about the running game, and I think that's 301 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 3: an appropriate place to start, because it did look different, 302 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 3: it did look more confident, and in Dave's right, by 303 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 3: the way, the Raiders defense, for as flawed as they 304 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 3: are about the middle of the pack in rushing yards 305 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 3: given up, they're not a sieve against the run. They're 306 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 3: fifteenth in the league giving up about one hundred and 307 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 3: ten rushing yards per game, and the Broncos just put 308 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 3: one hundred and fifty on them. 309 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 4: So I don't know, man. 310 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 3: I come into today's show with a level of optimism 311 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 3: about R. J. Harvey and about the run game and 312 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 3: about the ownership that these guys have put on it, understanding. 313 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 4: That there isn't a JK. Dobbins immediately available. 314 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 3: They did sign since Sir McCormick today, former Cardinals and 315 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 3: Raiders running back, he's going to be signed to the 316 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 3: practice squad, But that isn't some kind of indication that 317 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 3: there's something wrong with the running backer, and I think 318 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 3: they just wanted to add to it. But where do 319 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 3: you sit right now? What's your optimism level about the 320 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 3: running game down the stretch here? 321 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 5: It was decent. 322 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 7: To watch them go out and really commit to the 323 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 7: run game was a thing of beauty because we hadn't 324 00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 7: really seen that all season long. So yeah, that was 325 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 7: an opportunity for the Broncos to really showcase their run game, 326 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 7: something I thought that the Broncos would do when they 327 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 7: face the Raiders on Thursday Night football. He has my 328 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 7: forty five to ten you know outcome, which didn't happen 329 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 7: that particular way. But it goes to show that when 330 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 7: you stick to the run game, that something is going 331 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 7: to break. The damn is going to break at some 332 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:30,359 Speaker 7: particular point. And that's not to say that yesterday's performance 333 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 7: gives way to what could actually take place in the 334 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 7: future with the differ Broncos, because I know Patrick Graham 335 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 7: going into the game, that's the one thing that he 336 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 7: wanted to stop. He wanted to make sure that the 337 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 7: run game did not get on track because he knew 338 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 7: or he felt as though that was something that Sean 339 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 7: Payton tried to exploit as a play caller. But the 340 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 7: thing that stands out to me was what I'd said, 341 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 7: stated Todave, you had three explosive runs fifteen, eighteen and. 342 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 5: Eleven and eight team from Adam Prentiss, a. 343 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 4: Fullback longest longest of his career. 344 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:09,159 Speaker 7: Which which is as a defensive player, I gotta be 345 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 7: really transparent. 346 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, I was like, that would have never. 347 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,360 Speaker 7: Happened against any defense that I played on. But it's 348 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:20,199 Speaker 7: good for the Broncos to see that several different guys 349 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:23,160 Speaker 7: that they're handling the ball too in the backfield. Those 350 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 7: guys are having production. And when I look at this game, 351 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 7: this was a confidence boosting building type of game for 352 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,000 Speaker 7: the Broncos, and this is why you run the ball 353 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 7: in this particular situation. 354 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 5: And RJ. 355 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 7: Harvey, to his credit, it's showing as though he's not 356 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 7: just a guy that can run the ball between the tackles, 357 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 7: but he's becoming more of a threat of a past 358 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:50,159 Speaker 7: catching back out of the backfield, something in the past 359 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,680 Speaker 7: that Sean Payton is utilizing his days in Warland. 360 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:53,880 Speaker 5: So yeah, RJ. 361 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 3: Harvey, according to Eric Dalala, is the sixth rookie since 362 00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 3: nineteen ninety was at least five touchdowns and four receiving touchdowns, 363 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 3: joining Saquon Barkley, Alvin Kamara, David Johnson, Matt Forte, and 364 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 3: Edrin James. 365 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 5: That's a great stat to have. 366 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:12,360 Speaker 4: And he wasn't. 367 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 3: He wasn't a full time guy like like a lot 368 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 3: of these guys like Sakuan was a full time guy 369 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 3: right out of the gate, right. I mean, he's second 370 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,679 Speaker 3: overall pick. Alvin Kamara, Shawn has talked about it. They 371 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 3: saw him in preseason and said, oh, we got to 372 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 3: get this guy like a full time role in the offense. 373 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 3: David Johnson, Matt Forte, Edrin ja all those guys like 374 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,160 Speaker 3: right out of the gates were like the full time 375 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 3: running back for their teams. 376 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:36,680 Speaker 4: He was not. 377 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:40,160 Speaker 3: He was a part time running back and until recently 378 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 3: where now he's getting more of a full time role. 379 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 3: But the fact that he has those stats in this 380 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,920 Speaker 3: same company is pretty impressive in that respect. 381 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 7: Well being in that company is definitely great for R. J. 382 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 5: Harvey. But what you are bringing up, it. 383 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 7: Only shines the spotlight on the fact of well, even 384 00:18:58,240 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 7: when JK. 385 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 5: Dobbins was with the team, you still had a healthy RJ. 386 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:02,359 Speaker 4: Harvey. 387 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 7: So the production that we're seeing now inside the red zone. 388 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 7: Guess what, you could have seen it almost eight weeks ago. 389 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:11,879 Speaker 7: So that will have some of the raise of question 390 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 7: as to, hey, why wasn't that happening? What were the 391 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 7: major factors in not giving RJ. Harvey those touches, because 392 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 7: he's proven right now that if you gave him the touches, 393 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 7: he can actually pay dividends on a hitting pay dirt. 394 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 3: I think you're right, but I'd say, just not intentionally argumentative. 395 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 3: He at least had the opportunity to work into the 396 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 3: league and wasn't thrust into that role because you don't know. 397 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,159 Speaker 3: Sometimes a guy thrust into a major roll right off 398 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 3: of the gates and it doesn't work out. So well, yeah, 399 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,360 Speaker 3: but you don't we don't know. I know, we never 400 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,160 Speaker 3: would have known on a hot hand, right. 401 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 5: I get that. 402 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:52,199 Speaker 7: But the idea is, if you have multiple backs that 403 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 7: can give you multiple levels of production that puts the 404 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,920 Speaker 7: pressure on the posing defenses, you do it. So I'm 405 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 7: glad that we're seeing Yeah, but it just says that 406 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,880 Speaker 7: we could have seen it earlier in the season, and 407 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 7: all the question marks about r. J. Harvey could have 408 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 7: been answered until now. But The only thing that matters 409 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:14,359 Speaker 7: is he's answering the bell when his number is called. 410 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 5: That's the only thing that matters. 411 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 3: All Right, we're gonna beat Rapport join us next. And 412 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 3: I want to correct something. I think I framed it wrong, 413 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:21,880 Speaker 3: So I apologize to everybody. When I was asking Dave 414 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 3: about the Broncos could clinch a playoff spot with a 415 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:29,679 Speaker 3: win over the Packers, that is true. I was already 416 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,159 Speaker 3: counting tonight's loss that the Charger is going to have 417 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 3: to beat, already counted, already counted that as long. Okay, 418 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:39,920 Speaker 3: so that but until they lose that one officially. Yeah, 419 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:43,440 Speaker 3: So if they lose tonight, the Chargers lose tonight, and 420 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 3: they lose next. 421 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 4: Week against Kansas City, then the Broncos clinched. 422 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 5: The AFC West. 423 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 3: Okay, So that's I just Broncos have to win against 424 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 3: the Packers. 425 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:53,159 Speaker 4: That gets him in. 426 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 3: But if the Broncos beat the Packers and the Chargers 427 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 3: lose tonight and next week, then they clinched the West. 428 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 7: Let's say you are in the giving mood of correcting yourself, 429 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 7: why don't you just go ahead and correct yourself about 430 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 7: my outfit and why I have it on. 431 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 5: Yeah, go ahead, hit the button. 432 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 3: NFL Network Insider.

Good afternoon, my friend. 436 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 6: How are you what's going on here? 437 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 3: You guys doing We're fantastic. Man ten wins in a 438 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 3: row atop the AFC. Everything is everything is great. Crazy, Yeah, man, 439 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 3: what do you think about this Broncos streak? 440 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,200 Speaker 6: I mean, it's it's pretty crazy now. I do also 441 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 6: see you know, it's the smallest marginal victory anyone's seeing. 442 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 6: You know, given me not a game, said one. And 443 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 6: it's it's tight. It's been really tight. But I think 444 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:47,679 Speaker 6: there is something to be said for, you know, teams 445 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 6: really knowing how and in and understanding how to connect 446 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 6: themselves and making sure to make all the right plays. 447 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 6: You know, when that absolutely we got to have it. 448 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:58,479 Speaker 6: It's been honestly pretty amazing to watch. I think yesterday 449 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 6: it probably wasn't maybe as close to some of the others. 450 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 6: I think it's been awesome. It's been a fun season. 451 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 7: And I have to ask you this because I'm wearing 452 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 7: red today and Ryan Air was excusing me of being 453 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 7: a Chief's homer, which I'm not. 454 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 5: But I still have to preface this question. 455 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 7: When we look at what happened to the Chiefs last 456 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 7: night against the Texans, what do you make of their fall? 457 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 7: Is this just something temporary or this is something that 458 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 7: we could start to expect to have more longevity to it. 459 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 6: You know, it's interesting because I think a lot of 460 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 6: people are, you know, rightly talking about the offensive line, 461 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:35,879 Speaker 6: maybe since three starters and they were last night, and 462 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 6: then they lost another offensive lineman, so I think, you know, 463 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,160 Speaker 6: that's sort of been up and downs, and that's fair. 464 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,360 Speaker 6: But what most interesting to me was some of their 465 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 6: best players made mistakes and whether it was my homes 466 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 6: what a rough game, whether it was the Shoe Rice 467 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:55,199 Speaker 6: dropping two passes, whether Travis Kelsey dropping wide. You know, 468 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:58,119 Speaker 6: when when it's all on, your best players are the 469 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 6: ones who ot to come groop for you and I haven't. 470 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 6: The other thing that kind of sticks out for me 471 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 6: is they've had a lot of injuries to the skill 472 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 6: guys and a lot of them haven't practiced at tom which, 473 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 6: like if she writes us for suspenseason like practice is important. 474 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 6: Catching cast is important. Being familiar with the quarterback is important. 475 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:16,639 Speaker 2: You know. 476 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 6: This is to me sort of like when a guy 477 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 6: holds out MISSUS training camp and has a bad season 478 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 6: and everyone's very surprise, you know, happened to Ceedee Lamb, 479 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 6: that happens to arm McLaurin. Like practice is important. I 480 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 6: think when you don't practice with your best players, you know, 481 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 6: that's it shows. I think that's what's showing. 482 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,439 Speaker 3: Tough news for the Colts with the Achilles tear. For 483 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,160 Speaker 3: Daniel Jones, you certainly feel for him. I know he's 484 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 3: been He's battled his way back to this spot, and 485 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:47,920 Speaker 3: the Colts, of course have been a really good team so. 486 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 4: Far this year. 487 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,360 Speaker 3: Where do they go and I especially saw the news 488 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 3: that Riley Leonard's dealing with a knee injury. 489 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,120 Speaker 4: So where do the Colts go here at quarterback? 490 00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,399 Speaker 6: Well, I mean they go to Riley by it and 491 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 6: I think, you know, they think he's going to be okay, 492 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 6: which is good and actually for a guy who was 493 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 6: considered to be a pretty rot thought he actually I 494 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:11,679 Speaker 6: thought pretty good on Sunday considering just basically no reps. 495 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,440 Speaker 6: You know, now people will game play for him. It's 496 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 6: a whole different but I think that's the first option. 497 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:17,879 Speaker 2: You know. 498 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 6: The reality is when you get to this time of year, 499 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 6: there's not a lot of options among like active quarterbacks. 500 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,639 Speaker 6: It's just not so it's like where do you go? 501 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 6: Go to a guy who knows her system? And then 502 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 6: so ser rnings function I think will start. They got 503 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,639 Speaker 6: Brett Ripping on the practice squad, probably promote him. I 504 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 6: mean it's you know, look that it culture hung in 505 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 6: by a thread. I think right now the playoffs were 506 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 6: now maybe the seventh seed. I think that's right. You know, 507 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 6: So it's just it's not a good place to be. 508 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:52,800 Speaker 6: It was such a feel good season and it's all 509 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 6: gone the wrong way. Let's see if they can save it, 510 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:58,439 Speaker 6: because I think, you know, overall, talent wise they're okay, 511 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,399 Speaker 6: but you know, like without Daniel Jones obviously Anthony rich 512 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 6: Chickson wow healthy enough, it's it is up seating. 513 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 5: The other way is so the Chargers played tonight. 514 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 7: They're sitting eight and four, right behind the Denver Broncos, 515 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 7: and apparently they're getting some reinforcement with a couple of 516 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 7: guys getting healthy. How does this change your trajectory? With 517 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,639 Speaker 7: about three or three games left remaining in the season. 518 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think the interesting one for me is a 519 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:28,440 Speaker 6: mari and Hampton is back and he's stuff for a 520 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:32,399 Speaker 6: fractured uncle, you know, which is basically a two month injury. 521 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 6: So they missed. That's really missed. And during that time 522 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 6: Kamani Goodell kind of established himself as a potential starting 523 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 6: running that. You know, that's around a little bit up 524 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 6: a doubting the practice croud they really played great. Now 525 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 6: you get a first round talent to come in and 526 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:47,440 Speaker 6: join him and kind of get a little bit of 527 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 6: a carry share, you know. I think that's I think 528 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:54,919 Speaker 6: it's going to be really important for them to spell 529 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 6: the doll, you know, give some some fresh legs and 530 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:00,440 Speaker 6: some talent to their offensive backfield. And I think the 531 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,439 Speaker 6: other thing is justin Herbert seems like he's playings that 532 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 6: have broken left hand, broken bone in this left hand, 533 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:10,919 Speaker 6: had surgery. But it seems to be said on playing. 534 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,680 Speaker 6: We've seen a couple really good quarterbacks kind of play 535 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,719 Speaker 6: through a broken hand Josh Allender the last year. Herbert 536 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 6: sounds like it's going to do it today. It's not 537 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:20,639 Speaker 6: going to be one hundred percent, but you know, I 538 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,879 Speaker 6: think we'll be in a good enough place to be 539 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 6: successful and to be efficient. 540 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 3: Ian always appreciate the time. Thank you so much for 541 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 3: the insight. 542 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 4: We'll check in with you next week. 543 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 6: Thanks guys stick here all right. 544 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 3: Thank you, Ian Rappaport our NFL Network insider. We'll get 545 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 3: that up a ka Colorado dot Com. I get the sense, 546 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 3: not not just from me, but let's start with Grant 547 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:45,159 Speaker 3: before the show. When having conversations with the Broncos with 548 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 3: people that cover the game from a national perspective, I 549 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 3: don't think they know what to do with them. The 550 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,400 Speaker 3: fact that I was reading an article today that was 551 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 3: talking about the Broncos ten game win streak and there's 552 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:58,679 Speaker 3: I think there's fifty seven teams in history that have 553 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 3: had ten game win streaks and the Broncos are in 554 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:06,160 Speaker 3: last place. With the margin of victory as the points 555 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:11,760 Speaker 3: spread in wins over this ten game it's like six points. 556 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 3: It's like a little over six points for the Broncos 557 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:18,360 Speaker 3: over this ten game win streak. Again, I ultimately think, 558 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 3: as you do, you win games. That's all that really matters. 559 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 3: And the style points are for people on sports talk 560 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 3: radio and columnists to debate about. But it's weird and 561 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 3: like there's a lot of national podcasts that just didn't 562 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 3: even cover that game that usually cover all games, they 563 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 3: didn't cover that game. National TV didn't really spend And 564 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 3: it's again, they don't have to. This isn't a requirement 565 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 3: to cover every single game, because there were a lot 566 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:47,199 Speaker 3: of big games yesterday. It's just I don't think national 567 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 3: people know really what category puts the Broncos. Is this, 568 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 3: say blips, this something that is the beginning of something 569 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 3: or is it just a one off season where they're 570 00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 3: just surviving somehow. 571 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 7: Well the reason that is the case because I had 572 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 7: someone in national media I talked to you this morning, 573 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 7: and the first word they said to me when I said, well, 574 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 7: what's the first thing that comes to mind when you 575 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 7: think about the den were Broncos? They said they were 576 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,399 Speaker 7: living and two fraud And I was like, oh, okay, really, 577 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:16,159 Speaker 7: please articulate and explain. 578 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 5: And the idea is that they're looking at. 579 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 7: Margin of victory and we're so used to seeing this 580 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:26,200 Speaker 7: offensive explosion and we're not really seeing it from the 581 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 7: the Broncos as of late. So national people look at it, okay, well, like, 582 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:32,920 Speaker 7: well the Broncos are just. 583 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 5: Kind of skating by. They just if you. 584 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 7: Wanted to categorize this team from a national perspective, they're 585 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 7: just barely getting by right, and there's a sensus though 586 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 7: there's not a lot of confidence in this team long 587 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 7: term based on the fact of where their offense is 588 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 7: at this point, and it's the defense is doing their part, 589 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 7: but it's putting a significant amount of pressure on the 590 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 7: defense to be perfect, which we've seen the defense as 591 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 7: it breaks down, like last game against the Commanders and 592 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 7: on Sunday against the Raiders. So I think that that's 593 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 7: kind of the national I guess outlook. 594 00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 3: Sean Payton was actually asked about these close wins and 595 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 3: if it's building callouses for the Broncos as they head 596 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 3: into the postseason. 597 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 4: Well, we'll hear that answer coming up next, you know. 598 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 3: Sean Payton was asked earlier today. We'll get back to 599 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:25,880 Speaker 3: the text line. You guys have been sending some great stuff. 600 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 3: I want to read a couple of these. But Sean 601 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 3: Payton was asked earlier today about if some of these 602 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 3: close wins, and as I mentioned via the Athletic, there's 603 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 3: been fifty seven teams with ten win streaks over the 604 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 3: course of NFL history, and the Broncos as far as 605 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 3: the margin of victory, are. 606 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:47,680 Speaker 4: Last on that list with six point nine. 607 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 3: The next closest team is the nineteen ninety nine Colts, 608 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 3: ranking fifty sixth with eight point seven average margin of victory. 609 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 3: So six point nine is the differential for the Broncos 610 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 3: over their ten game winning streak, which is fifty seventh 611 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 3: out of fifty seven. Here's John Payton earlier today on 612 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 3: if it builds causes for the team to win these 613 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 3: close games as ahead of the postseason. 614 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 2: There's a confidence in your team, but there's also a 615 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 2: respect each week for the opponent. And then there's a 616 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 2: formula that your team knows is necessary because it's happened. 617 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 2: So you know the formula of putting a good Wednesday, 618 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 2: Thursday and Friday. And many say the games are won 619 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 2: on those three days before it's ever played. And so 620 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 2: I would say, I think we're a more experienced team 621 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:42,800 Speaker 2: having had that success, having had some tough games, close games. 622 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 2: But I would say that I think we're a smarter 623 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 2: team today relative to understanding you know the fine line 624 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 2: in our league. 625 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 3: So what about it, Nick, do you think the close wins, 626 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 3: the close margin of victory over the course of the 627 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 3: season will vode well for the Broncos or is it 628 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,960 Speaker 3: again once again plays with fire too much here? 629 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 5: I think both of these seas can be true. 630 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 7: It builds confidence, but still at the same time, you 631 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 7: are playing with fire because what happens if you come 632 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 7: up against an opponent that has better quarterback play, better 633 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 7: play calling, better execution, but more appolling they run the 634 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 7: ball better than you, so they can play keep away 635 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 7: and play four minute offense. 636 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:25,960 Speaker 5: It's gonna put. 637 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 7: The Broncos defense in someone of the buying And I 638 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 7: think and listen. 639 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 5: I get it. 640 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 7: Fans want to see double digit quarters where you can 641 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:38,239 Speaker 7: score more than seven or three points. That builds a 642 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 7: lot of confidence, just the same as it builds confidence 643 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 7: to win games in the fourth quarter. 644 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 4: What did you think about the way the defense played? 645 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 3: Because you asked Dave about that and it certainly we'll 646 00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 3: spend some time coming up on a little bit more 647 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 3: thorough breakdown everything. 648 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 4: But how do you feel like the defense played yesterday? 649 00:31:56,080 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 7: They played Okay, this wasn't their best game, but at 650 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 7: the same time, it wasn't. 651 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:01,880 Speaker 5: The worst game. 652 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,960 Speaker 7: And I think once again, we look at how this 653 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 7: defense has been built up to this point, the things 654 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 7: that they've done to help this team actually get the 655 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 7: record that they have. When we see a little couple 656 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 7: of catches here and there, everyone starts to lose their 657 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 7: mind because we saw two things happen and the game 658 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 7: on Sunday that we didn't you see happen all season. 659 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 5: Long, both pro and con. 660 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 7: The pro was the Broncos moved down the field on 661 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 7: an opening drive and they. 662 00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:31,479 Speaker 5: Capped it off with the score. 663 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:37,200 Speaker 7: Right then we saw the defense return as they allow 664 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 7: the Raiders offense to move the ball down the field 665 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 7: and score in their open possession, something we hadn't seen 666 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 7: all season long, and it wasn't until if I'm not mistaken, 667 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,960 Speaker 7: until Sunday that the Broncos defense actually gave. 668 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 5: Up an opening touchdown. 669 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 7: That's correct, right, So we got two of those things 670 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:58,720 Speaker 7: going on at the same time, which builds optimism but 671 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 7: also builds concern for certain people because everything, all the 672 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:05,960 Speaker 7: chips was pushed in on this defense because the idea 673 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 7: was that if the defense continues to play this way 674 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 7: and the offense can win games in the fourth quarter, 675 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 7: no one's gonna want to face the Denver Broncos. 676 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 5: But it's coming to. 677 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 7: A point where no, no, no, no no, we're gonna need 678 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 7: both of you guys to really book in four quarters 679 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,400 Speaker 7: of football in order for people to start to change 680 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:27,800 Speaker 7: their mind. But that's everyone on the outside, everyone on 681 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 7: the inside saying the hell with you, guys, we're still 682 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 7: winning ball games. 683 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:34,480 Speaker 4: Well, that's exactly right. And the disrespect card. 684 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 3: By the way, I feel like the Broncos can use 685 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 3: this all the way until I mean all the way through. Honestly, 686 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:44,720 Speaker 3: they're gonna be continued to be counted out throughout this 687 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 3: entire process. They are home dogs this Sunday versus the 688 00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 3: Packers two and a half point dogs. It's eleven and 689 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 3: two team hosting a nine to three and one team 690 00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 3: and their home dog they got. They're like an eleven 691 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:05,200 Speaker 3: game home winn streak and they're home dogs. 692 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 4: If I'm Sean Payton, I love it. 693 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:15,920 Speaker 3: Please keep doubting us, keep believing that we have not 694 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 3: discovered a formula that is going to work all the 695 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,799 Speaker 3: way to the one seed and possibly the Super Bowl. 696 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:24,359 Speaker 7: I'm with you, so Saturday night before the Green Bay game, 697 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 7: if I'm Sean Payton, I'm gonna lean into it. I'm 698 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:30,400 Speaker 7: gonna play every audio clip locally and nationally, for everyone 699 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,239 Speaker 7: that said all these negative things about the team and say, well, 700 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 7: you guys have an opportunity to silence your critics.
