1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:01,040
Speaker 1: Like them or not.

2
00:00:01,560 --> 00:00:04,320
Speaker 2: The number one seed this year in the AFC is

3
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:05,880
Speaker 2: the Denver Broncos.

4
00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 3: I appreciate you're being tapped into some of the national

5
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:12,760
Speaker 3: kind of conversation about it.

6
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 2: Or maybe even local or maybe even local right, yeah,

7
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:16,800
Speaker 2: right right, or maybe even you know, three to six

8
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:18,599
Speaker 2: on KOA.

9
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:23,960
Speaker 1: No, I think there are just in watching some of.

10
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 2: The I've watched the national stuff, yeah, every single day,

11
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:28,160
Speaker 2: and they're there.

12
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 1: Just seems to me.

13
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 2: I don't think it's a lack of respect, but I

14
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 2: do think it's a lack of acknowledgment by a number

15
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 2: of people that. I mean, some of some of the

16
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 2: people I think have have good football knowledge, and I

17
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:47,520
Speaker 2: respect that knowledge. Some of the people I think don't

18
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 2: know anything about football. Maybe I don't respect their knowledge

19
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 2: as much. But there seems to be that sort of

20
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 2: lack of acknowledgment that this team is fourteen and three

21
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 2: and they're the number one seed, and you can pick,

22
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 2: you can pick things you don't like about them or gosh,

23
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 2: this doesn't look good. But I could do that about

24
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:09,759
Speaker 2: every single team in the playoffs.

25
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 1: And so there's one way, there's only one way for.

26
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 2: The Broncos to shut everybody up, and that's to play

27
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 2: two home games and win two home games and go

28
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 2: to the super Bowl.

29
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 3: It's weird though, to your point of how the coverage

30
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 3: of the team is so divided, and maybe locally is

31
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:30,959
Speaker 3: included in that, but especially on the national level, like

32
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:35,839
Speaker 3: there's this almost dismissive nature. You hear the word fraudulent

33
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,320
Speaker 3: thrown around a lot when talking about the Broncos and

34
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 3: their position as the one seed.

35
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 4: It's not going to be.

36
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 2: Fraudulent for a team that actually won fourteen games.

37
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 3: Well, I'm not gonna answer for all the people out

38
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 3: there they're saying that, but a lot of them are

39
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 3: saying that because of the way the Broncos schedule broke,

40
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,279
Speaker 3: that they end up facing some backup quarterbacks and teams

41
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 3: that were not playing well at the time, when other

42
00:01:58,760 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 3: other teams maybe.

43
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 4: Had more difficult schedule.

44
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 3: The Patriots are the only one from a strength of

45
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 3: schedule standpoint that had a weaker weaker victories.

46
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 2: All right, So are they saying that the Patriots winning

47
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,880
Speaker 2: to the AFC East and securing the number two seed

48
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:19,240
Speaker 2: the AFC. Has anybody used the phrase fraudulent when describing them,

49
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 2: Not that I've seen.

50
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,080
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe, maybe on New England. They're dealing with some

51
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 3: of that.

52
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,679
Speaker 2: It's okay, and I don't want to you know, I

53
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 2: don't want to come across as you know, everybody that

54
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 2: thinks the Broncos have not been as consistently good on

55
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 2: offense as they should have been doesn't know what they're

56
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,920
Speaker 2: talking about. Because the Broncos have played in stretches this

57
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 2: year in a way that would make a reasonable person

58
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,920
Speaker 2: who has good football acumen push back and say, what

59
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 2: in the actual hell is going on here?

60
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 1: I get that.

61
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 2: And if if you're saying, oh, none of the criticism

62
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 2: is fair, none.

63
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: Of it, I see that.

64
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 2: I think that's ridiculous, right, But it's also ridiculous to

65
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 2: me that anybody would say they're fraudulent when they won

66
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 2: fourteen games. But again, the only way to prove that

67
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 2: is for them to play well in the playoffs and

68
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 2: to earn whatever respect they need to have, even if

69
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 2: it's grudgingly.

70
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 1: He is.

71
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 5: When you look at the strength of schedule coming into

72
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 5: the season, I think the Giants had the toughest schedule

73
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,079
Speaker 5: and I think the Broncos were ranked fifteen.

74
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 1: And it all depends on who you are and where you are.

75
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 5: You have different interpretations of what this team actually looks like.

76
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 5: And I am of the frame of mind is being

77
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 5: fair and upfront and like for me, I would never

78
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 5: because I'm a former player, I would never really side

79
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 5: with the team and say something is when it isn't.

80
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 5: But also I know as a former player there are

81
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 5: many guys who like myself in the business and they

82
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 5: became uber negative just to take the other side because

83
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 5: they think that it's popular.

84
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: I will never do that.

85
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 5: I try to stay down the middle and do something

86
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 5: that is very hard to do in situations like this,

87
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 5: pull your emotions out of the situation, because sometimes the

88
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 5: emotions can be blinding for you.

89
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: For me, I just try to be fair in my assessment.

90
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 1: Do I agree?

91
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 5: And I've heard people I know who do national TV

92
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 5: and radio use that phrase fraudulent, and I'm like, well,

93
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 5: there's nothing fraudulent about winning fourteen games.

94
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: There's not.

95
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 5: If you want to say there's some things they can

96
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 5: tweak here and there, I'm in agreement with.

97
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 1: That because I know this.

98
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 5: In David attestais, winning any game, no matter what the

99
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 5: strength of schedule is, it's very difficult to do.

100
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 1: In the NFL, it is very difficult.

101
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 5: So it's like, you don't want to take credit away

102
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 5: from any of these players, the coaching staff what they've

103
00:04:58,440 --> 00:04:59,160
Speaker 5: been able to do.

104
00:04:59,560 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 1: Right.

105
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,279
Speaker 5: We always say a dove is a dub and you

106
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 5: have to count that doub and you can't discount it.

107
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 3: But the part of this is kind of on this

108
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,239
Speaker 3: we have to relitigate this. But the style points discussion

109
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 3: we got into on Friday because this text came in

110
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 3: and says, it's all about how the Patriots are winning

111
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 3: their games versus how the Broncos are winning their games,

112
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 3: and that's the consistency point that you were making their

113
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 3: name o find.

114
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 2: I mean, what is that that they're they're scoring more points.

115
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 4: And that's it? Okay that Drake May was an MVP conversation.

116
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: I think New England has looked really good. Yep.

117
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,159
Speaker 2: I think they're a very well coached team. I think

118
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 2: Drake May looks like the real thing. They're going to

119
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:37,960
Speaker 2: be difficult for anybody to beat, especially in Foxborough, but

120
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 2: even on the road. I think I think the Patriots

121
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 2: are the only team that didn't lose a road game

122
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 2: this year.

123
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 4: That's correct. Yeah, all three of their losses are at home.

124
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, so yeah, I mean, I I think two things

125
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,480
Speaker 2: can be true at the same time. I mean I

126
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:57,359
Speaker 2: I again, I understand it the criticism because there have

127
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:01,360
Speaker 2: been stretches of play when the Broncos, even when they

128
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 2: look at themselves, would say, man, that's that's not very good, right,

129
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 2: But they have found ways to win fourteen games, and

130
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:16,599
Speaker 2: they're pretty damn good on defense, and they've got a

131
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 2: playmaker at quarterback, and they've got some receivers that I

132
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 2: think the Broncos are as big a problem for anybody

133
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,280
Speaker 2: to come to Denver and figure out how to win

134
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 2: a game as the Patriots are for anybody to come

135
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:38,160
Speaker 2: to Foxborough and win back there. So I think it's

136
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 2: going to be a fascinating and really interesting and fun

137
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 2: playoff run.

138
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:43,479
Speaker 4: Completely agreed.

139
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 3: Let me ask you guys a sort of half full,

140
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 3: half empty question when it comes to the Broncos. I

141
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,039
Speaker 3: think that through the most of the season, we've sort

142
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,240
Speaker 3: of waited until they could kind of put it all

143
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 3: together and play what we believe they're capable of being

144
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,039
Speaker 3: their best game, right. I mean, there's get these wins,

145
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 3: but afterwards we're always talking about, well, they didn't play

146
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 3: their best in this facet and they certainly could have

147
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 3: done more here, and they keep saying after hey, we

148
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 3: have stuff to work on, and it's like, yeah, you

149
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 3: very clearly have stuff to work on. So you come

150
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 3: after these last two games specifically where we came in

151
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,239
Speaker 3: and say, boy, they didn't They didn't execute the offense

152
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 3: the way they possibly could have. There were some stuff

153
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 3: on defense they could clean up. With exception this last week,

154
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 3: I thought they were amazing. But it is your opinion

155
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 3: that they still have that in them.

156
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 4: Here in this postseason stretch.

157
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 3: Do you believe that we are going to see the

158
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 3: best version of this team going into the postseason or

159
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 3: because these last two games were so flawed, this is

160
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 3: who they are right now.

161
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 2: Well, I would say the game in Kansas City was

162
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 2: not as flawed maybe as others would would think. And

163
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 2: they issue the issue for the game in Kansas City.

164
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 2: I mean, they dominated the Chiefs. They were able to

165
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 2: move the ball up and down the field. They bogged

166
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 2: down in the red zone, right, they didn't have it

167
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 2: a fish red zone game. They had four drives in

168
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 2: that one game that were double digit plays and around

169
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 2: nine minutes give or take some on the field. They

170
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 2: just didn't close the deal with red zone efficiency, so

171
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 2: you can be I thought, you know, they had one

172
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 2: turnover which gave the Chiefs a short field chief score.

173
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 2: I mean that game to me, when you look at

174
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 2: the Chiefs offense and I can't think of the young

175
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 2: guy's name, then I'm quite certain that Sean Payton looked

176
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,959
Speaker 2: at that in terms of how the Chiefs offense matched

177
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 2: against the Broncos defense the same way he did yesterday

178
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 2: with Trey Lance. You know, unless we give them the

179
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:47,560
Speaker 2: game by taking a lot of chances, then they're gonna

180
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 2: have hard time scoring, which is exactly what happens. So

181
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 2: if you're looking for style points, I would say that

182
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:58,839
Speaker 2: there would be some disappointing moments this season with the Broncos.

183
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 2: But I am not a style point guy, and I'm

184
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,680
Speaker 2: not saying the Broncos are assured of going to the

185
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 2: Super Bowl.

186
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be a heavy lift, but.

187
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 2: I think anybody coming to Denver is going to be

188
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 2: equally lifting a lot trying to figure.

189
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 1: Out how to beat these guys here in Denver.

190
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 2: I think their chances are as good, if not better,

191
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 2: to go to the Super Bowl than any team in

192
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 2: the NFC. And again, could they lose, absolutely they could.

193
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 2: But could they win this thing? Absolutely they could.

194
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 5: But this is why you talk about when you look

195
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 5: at the Broncos, you say, you use that phrase, you're

196
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 5: playing with house money, right because you're hosting, you only

197
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 5: have to win two games. You have arguably one of

198
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 5: the better defensive units in the NFL. The only thing

199
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 5: that you were lacking was creating turnovers on a higher level.

200
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,720
Speaker 5: Now we've seen that in the past couple of weeks.

201
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 5: The Broncos are doing it. So the confidence level now

202
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 5: starts to soar. But I think it would be wrong

203
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 5: not to say, okay, well, if you want you were

204
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 5: to break this team down, there are some things that

205
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,440
Speaker 5: you would like for them to improve, and every single

206
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 5: week you can't continue to say you notice what you

207
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,599
Speaker 5: need to improve on, but you don't improve.

208
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 1: On those things.

209
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 5: And I think this is where the line is drawn

210
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:27,080
Speaker 5: between both fans, local media, national media, because that is

211
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 5: the conversation you.

212
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 1: Hear it so much like several games.

213
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:35,679
Speaker 5: Right before the half goes Peyton's interview and it's like, okay,

214
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:37,439
Speaker 5: but what do you need to do to get things

215
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 5: back on track? Run the ball. So when you move

216
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 5: to the second half, you're like, Okay, well you're going

217
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 5: to see more of that where you're not seeing it

218
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 5: in that higher level.

219
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 3: So do you believe we're gonna see that like these

220
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:51,439
Speaker 3: things that they keep saying, well, we're gonna fix it,

221
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 3: you think we're gonna see them now in the postage?

222
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 1: If I haven't seen it?

223
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 5: Now, what makes I'll ask you, what makes you think

224
00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 5: is going to somehow miraculously change?

225
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: To me, you have to progressively show that.

226
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 5: Right the twelve step program that that Dave was joking

227
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 5: with you about steps baby steps we got. If it's twelve,

228
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 5: we somehow get the six And right now it doesn't

229
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 5: look that way with so many things.

230
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 1: And that's why we're having this conversation.

231
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 4: Well, and I understand that. I guess I just have

232
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 4: to have hope.

233
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 3: And that's a scary four letter word, right, but I

234
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 3: have to have hope that there's there's a plan in

235
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 3: place here for we know who we are at this.

236
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 4: Point the season.

237
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 3: We know we can execute these things and we're ready

238
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 3: to do that here in the postseason when it matters

239
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 3: the most.

240
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 1: But I mean, to me, is that false? Yes?

241
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 2: I think it is, because I don't think NFL teams

242
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 2: operate that way. I think what you said the Broncos

243
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 2: and the staff in particular probably had going into every

244
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 2: single game this year. They probably said, listen, we expect

245
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 2: that we're going to execute at a high level. We

246
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 2: think we have this matter and that matchup that are

247
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 2: better we're going to take advantage of here here. I mean,

248
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 2: everybody has, you know, a well thought out game plan.

249
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 2: Not everybody, but most NFL coaches do. And I think

250
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 2: when you look at the Broncos this year, the frustration,

251
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 2: if that's a fair characterization for some fans, comes from

252
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 2: the offensive side of the ball. Now, the defense in

253
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,280
Speaker 2: a couple of games, I mean you had had to

254
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 2: hold onto your jockstrap a little bit because it was like, oh,

255
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 2: you know, the Jacksonville thing got away from him a

256
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 2: little bit. So there's I mean, there's always room to

257
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 2: improve on both sides. But the defense has played good

258
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 2: football or better this season. They have, and nobody, including

259
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 2: anybody out there in the organization, can stayed otherwise with

260
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 2: a straight face. The offense has been up and down,

261
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 2: and that's something you do not want from your defense,

262
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,440
Speaker 2: and you'd prefer not to have it from your offense.

263
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:09,560
Speaker 2: But it's the nature of the game we've seen. I mean,

264
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 2: if you look and watched a lot of NFL games,

265
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 2: you've seen really explosive teams that in a game or

266
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 2: maybe two games, a couple games, it's like, who are

267
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:23,680
Speaker 2: these guys? They can't even get out of their own

268
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:27,920
Speaker 2: their own way. Defenses by and large are better than

269
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,439
Speaker 2: offenses in the National Football League.

270
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:31,280
Speaker 1: They just are.

271
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 2: So that's why quarterbacks make what they what they do,

272
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:37,560
Speaker 2: because if you can find one of air quote those guys,

273
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 2: he balances up that that equation. He gives you a

274
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 2: chance even though maybe the rest you're not as good

275
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 2: as the defense you're playing, but that guy gives you

276
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 2: a chance to win. So I think the Broncos are confident.

277
00:13:52,559 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 2: I think Sean Payton realizes the sort of rollercoaster, the

278
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 2: rollercoaster kind of feel that his offense has given him

279
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 2: from time to time. He's got to coach through that

280
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 2: now and find a way to win two games to

281
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 2: get to the Super Bowl. And I agree with Nick

282
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 2: in this regard.

283
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 1: You are what you are.

284
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:23,960
Speaker 2: I mean, there's no right now, there's no evidence, nor

285
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 2: would I hold that any hope that Lebroncos, no matter

286
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 2: who they play in the first postseason game. Are going

287
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 2: to line up and run for two hundred yards and

288
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 2: Bo's going to throw the ball forty five times and

289
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 2: complete thirty four for I mean, could it happen? I mean,

290
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 2: stranger things have happened. But you are who you are.

291
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 2: You're a team that can make some big plays. You're

292
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 2: a team that has a quarterback that can escape pressure

293
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 2: and keep the team on the field because he picks

294
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 2: up the first down. Your team whose running game has

295
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:57,320
Speaker 2: been statistically okay, but I would say spotty from time

296
00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 2: to time, not as efficient as you want. So you

297
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 2: gotta piecemeal this thing together and have the defense.

298
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 1: To me, that's why Sean.

299
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 2: Spoke out last week and said, hey, what need some

300
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 2: turnovers because he knows this guy's a smart and he

301
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 2: knows you got to get turnovers otherwise your chances of

302
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 2: winning in the in the playoffs are diminished.

303
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 1: Eddie got him. I just had to do that.

304
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 4: Did you bring a bell into the studio?

305
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:31,480
Speaker 1: Absolutely? I come with props. Yes, I give props, and

306
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 1: I come with props.

307
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 4: Just don't don't get any of the watermelon on me.

308
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 4: That's all.

309
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 1: I mean. I'm not gonna do that. But Yeah, what

310
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 1: Dave said, man is it's absolutely.

311
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 4: Gallagher. You remember the comedian where.

312
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 1: That's why, that's why I tried. I know where you're thinking.

313
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 1: I know exactly where you're thinking. See Ryan has no idea.

314
00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 4: Well, now I see where you're going on.

315
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: I was talking.

316
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:04,040
Speaker 4: I was about the comedian gallaghery held smash the water crowd.

317
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,920

319
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:12,640

00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 1: I'm like, hold what.

321
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 4: I definitely didn't mean that.

Speaker 1: No, listen, bro, you know what. I love watermelon too.

323
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 1: I do. I'm just saying I do.

324
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 4: Whatever way you just took it, I definitely didn't mean

325
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 4: it that way.

326
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 5: The whole point, the whole point idea is that, you

327
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 5: know what, the defense has carried this team and we

328
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 5: just need to see a little a little more from.

329
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 1: From the offense. That's what I'm saying. Comes to the

330
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 1: party and Chelan Payton, that's why he said. That's why

331
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 1: he mentioned the turnovers.

332
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 5: You need those turnovers to help you when your offense

333
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 5: is struggling to get on track right, your defense can

334
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 5: be your saving grace.

335
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:57,880
Speaker 1: They're just still listening right now. He's still listening. I'm sorry,

336
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:01,080

Speaker 3: Right before you're about to play a football game, of

394
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 3: all the times to do this thing.

395
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 4: Uh, Broncos covered right now? They did not? Never mind, well, they.

396
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 1: Weren't favored by thirteen points in yeah, arrowhead.

397
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 4: Thirteen and a half. I think no?

398
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 1: No, were they? Yeah?

399
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 4: I thought it was.

400
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 1: Were they really did they cover? I don't know. I

401
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 1: don't think so.

402
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 4: Now it's been so long they won my seven So no, that.

403
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 1: Would be less than thirteen.

404
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 4: That would be.

405
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 3: Less that's so no cover that be that'd be a

406
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:48,640
Speaker 3: no cover.

407
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 2: You know one thing that happened yesterday that has only

408
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 2: happened one other time in this glorious Broncos season.

409
00:19:56,520 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 1: What's that? I asked? Did you know what?

410
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:04,399
Speaker 2: It was only the second time this year that the

411
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:08,159
Speaker 2: Broncos have not trailed for a single minute in a

412
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 2: game they've been behind, They've won fourteen games, and in

413
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 2: those fourteen fourteen wins, in twelve of those games they

414
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:21,360
Speaker 2: were behind. That is an NFL record, and they it's

415
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 2: things like that. I think that people look and see

416
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:27,120
Speaker 2: like these guys are doing it with smoking mirrors. I mean,

417
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 2: how many how many of these games can they can

418
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 2: they win? So it's like a David Blaine trick, A

419
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,639
Speaker 2: good pull, yes, good pull? O.

420
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 3: God, you know what, I don't ask you why I

00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,120
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, you're rank you no further questions.

428
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 3: The defense rest somebody was repressed with the says that

429
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,960
Speaker 3: that's a deep pull. That's good, and then somebody else

430
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 3: said that's u let a naysay or no moment of

431
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 3: the year.

437
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:33,879
Speaker 2: I don't know if we have it, but it was

438
00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 2: one of the moments that anyway, I.

439
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:38,640
Speaker 4: Said, it's a grant. I said, it's a grant.

Speaker 1: Yeah, you did.

441
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 3: It's it's pretty hysterical. I think it's from last year.

442
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:46,480
Speaker 3: He actually brought it up on game day just last

443
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 3: this last week.

444
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:48,520
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I know.

445
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:49,879
Speaker 4: He referenced it again.

446
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, and and gave sort of a property was talking about,

447
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:56,199
Speaker 3: you don't have the auto here, but I can. I

448
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:57,399
Speaker 3: can send it to Grant, but do you have the

449
00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 3: original one?

450
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:04,360
Speaker 6: Grant over Jalen Milroe often wears his old branded apparel reading.

451
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 4: LANK across the front.

452
00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 6: It's an acronym that stands for let a Nay Sayer know.

453
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 6: Being told by his former offensive coordinator.

454
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,400
Speaker 7: Bill Old, I thought, is that not what you thought?

455
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,800
Speaker 1: Boy? Let nay say or no? And they say or no.

456
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:19,879
Speaker 4: Of course, professionals right in the middle of it.

457
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:21,119
Speaker 1: That's all right.

458
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 5: Almost it's a real up here.

459
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:33,880
Speaker 1: That I thought it was going.

460
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:48,360
Speaker 8: Now, Oh god, what did they say?

461
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 1: No, That's what we thought the whole time.

462
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 7: That's what we all thought, those of us who.

463
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:57,400
Speaker 6: Are more pure in thought it was Sayers who needed

464
00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:57,679
Speaker 6: to know.

465
00:22:57,760 --> 00:22:58,760
Speaker 1: Him being told.

466
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 2: By's former offensive I thought we did a nice job

467
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:06,640
Speaker 2: of getting it back on track because the entire set,

468
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 2: and again it was it was Joey Galloway, it was

469
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,520
Speaker 2: Desmond Howard, it was Pat McAfee, and it was Chris

470
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:12,879
Speaker 2: it was Kirk Cursory.

471
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 1: So I mean all of them. I'm not sure.

472
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 2: I'm not sure Kirk new, but McAfee knew, and Desmond

473
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 2: nw for sure, and so did Joey.

474
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 5: Well, usually that's how we were referred to it my

475
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:26,159
Speaker 5: old neighborhood where I grew up.

476
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:29,919
Speaker 1: Yes, that's how we would.

477
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 2: Ye, sure you would, Sure you would, Yeah, I damn.

478
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 4: So that was actually two years ago that he did

479
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:43,159
Speaker 4: that one. This was just a couple. Do you have

480
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 4: the one from a couple of days ago? All right,

481
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:45,320
Speaker 4: so you're right.

482
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,639
Speaker 6: We talked about how intelligent he is. When he arrived

483
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 6: at Indiana, he quickly picked up every nuance of the

484
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 6: who's your offense? His new quarterback coach, Chandern Whitmer, uses

485
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 6: a system that he picked up in the NFL. For

486
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:01,120
Speaker 6: every single play, you gotta know your protection, you got

487
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 6: to know your intent, you got to know your mechanics,

488
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:05,439
Speaker 6: and you got to know your problems. It's an easy

489
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 6: acronym to remember, just P I am problems acronyms be dangerous.

490
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 1: Every now and then.

491
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:20,400
Speaker 6: But just in case there are any naysayers.

492
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 1: About either.

493
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:24,399
Speaker 2: Said they should know this.

494
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 1: Quarterback in ain't easy. But they both can do it. Alabama,

495
00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:29,800
Speaker 1: but what you think can do it.

496
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,400
Speaker 6: After resurrecting themselves against Oklahoma?

497
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,680
Speaker 3: Okay, man, we Davis way to go good.

498
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:38,680
Speaker 1: That was smooth and well done.

499
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:39,680
Speaker 5: P I M.

500
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 3: Problems. Acronyms can be dangerous. That's right, oh man, that's

501
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 3: good stuff. You know we have a chance to me

502
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 3: Obviously we've talked a lot about the Broncos today, but

503
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:53,440
Speaker 3: for a moment, we got the final four that's gonna

504
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 3: come up this week in the college football playoff. Dave

505
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 3: he got to ole miss Miami on Thursday in Indiana, Oregon.

506
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 4: Hey feel about that? I mean again, we talked about

507
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 4: it on Friday.

508
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:05,480
Speaker 3: It's not the ones you'd expect, right, It's not Ohio State,

509
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 3: it's not Alabama, it's not Georgia.

510
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 2: I had an NFL guy after When I say an

511
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 2: NFL guy, he's he's a front office person in or

512
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 2: with an NFL team, and it's not here in Denver.

513
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 1: Tell me. And this was after Miami beat Ohio State.

514
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 2: That by far the most talented roster of any college

515
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:34,359
Speaker 2: football team this year and last year was Ohio State.

516
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,680
Speaker 2: I mean, this is an NFL guy and Miami, Miami

517
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 2: put it to them. So these two games, I think

518
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 2: are are really interesting. Miami is a favorite over Mississippi

519
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 2: and Indiana I think is a three or four point.

520
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 2: The impressive thing about Indiana they went to Eugene in

521
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:58,880
Speaker 2: the regular season and beat Oregon on their on their

522
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 2: home campus, which which is really tough to do. I

523
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 2: don't have an opinion yet, I would be inclined. I

524
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 2: would lean towards Oregon and the points, and I think

525
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 2: Miami Miami. I tell you what Miami did to Ohio State.

526
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:26,760
Speaker 2: In my opinion, they were tougher physically. They just got

527
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:33,720
Speaker 2: after Ohio State and took them to the shed. And

528
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:36,679
Speaker 2: Ohio State made a couple of key mistakes, and to

529
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 2: their credit, they battled back. You know, they're down fourteen,

530
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 2: they battled back in seventeen fourteen to the fourth and

531
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:42,880
Speaker 2: Ohio State has the ball.

532
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,080
Speaker 1: But when it was all said and done.

533
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 2: I think the tougher team physically and mentally won that game,

534
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:50,560
Speaker 2: and that was Miami.

535
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:55,920
Speaker 1: They take it BTA. How about that I know, Dave,

536
00:26:56,640 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 1: I do know, Okay, basically that that's kind of what happened.

537
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,080
Speaker 1: And for me, as a kid who grew up in

538
00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:03,919
Speaker 1: Miami and.

539
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:05,880
Speaker 5: I wanted to go to the University of Miami, it's

540
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:10,160
Speaker 5: great to see Maria Christbaul getting them back to where

541
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:10,639
Speaker 5: they are.

542
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:11,679
Speaker 1: And here's the other thing.

543
00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,359
Speaker 5: When we look at these four teams that remain, think

544
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 5: about where some of these coaches they spent their coaching

545
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 5: careers as they were I guess, progressing through the coaching ranks.

546
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 5: I think, if I'm not mistaken, three of these coaches

547
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,919
Speaker 5: head coaches spent time in Alabama with Nick Saban, So

548
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,439
Speaker 5: I'm not too surprised that they find themselves. But that

549
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:38,439
Speaker 5: Oregon Indiana game is going to be interesting because the

550
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 5: last time these two teams met, Indiana beat them in Eugene,

551
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:41,919
Speaker 5: did they not.

552
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, that's going to be a really interesting game.

553
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 5: And I wonder what did Dan Landing and his coaching

554
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 5: staff learn from that. Known as though two of his

555
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 5: coordinators offensive coordinators and defensive coordinators they're going to be

556
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,480
Speaker 5: head coaches es well, I find.

557
00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 4: It pretty easy to root for all with any of

558
00:27:57,880 --> 00:27:58,359
Speaker 4: these teams.

559
00:27:58,520 --> 00:27:59,439
Speaker 1: Honestly, me too.

560
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,359
Speaker 3: That's that's the one thing that I thought about after

561
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:03,920
Speaker 3: those games all settled, I was like, you know, I

562
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:06,200
Speaker 3: can kind of get behind any one of these ones.

563
00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,639
Speaker 3: I'm kind of quietly rooting for All miss because of

564
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 3: Lane Kiffin leaving for LSU and sort of the vibe

565
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 3: coming off of that game.

566
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:15,040
Speaker 1: You don't like Lane Kiff and leaving. No.

567
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 4: I it's what it is. I'm saying.

568
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 3: It's they're easy to root for because they're doing without

569
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:22,439
Speaker 3: their head coach that got them there, right and some

570
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 3: of the staff that he's going to be taken with them.

571
00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,359
Speaker 4: So that's what's impressive to me. To be able to

572
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:28,400
Speaker 4: say we.

573
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:30,440
Speaker 3: Can, we can put all of that aside and still

574
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 3: play at a very high level.

575
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:32,119
Speaker 4: That's amazing.

576
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:33,160
Speaker 1: See for someone who.

577
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 5: Loves college football, I mean I love the storyline of.

578
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 1: You know, Freddieman Dozer.

579
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 5: Yeah he's got ties to you know, Miami because he

580
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 5: went to the Christopher Columbus High school and I love

581
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 5: her signetti and everything he's about the program because the

582
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,959
Speaker 5: idea is that if they win it all. I know

583
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 5: there's there's financial bonuses in in there for him, but

584
00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:57,520
Speaker 5: I want to hear him say.

585
00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 1: Google me, Yeah, it's pretty simple. I win, Yes, google me.

586
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 5: I love that aspect of being really upfront with that

587
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 5: as a coach, But there's a part of me.

588
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:08,280
Speaker 1: Still attached to the University of.

589
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:11,240
Speaker 5: Miami, the ACC and a level of disrespect the ACC

590
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 5: has received over the past couple of years. I would

591
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 5: love to see them win it, just for that particular purpose.

592
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 4: Signetti, I'm a little torn. What do you think about

593
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,280
Speaker 4: Signetti loving? I'm such a big fan.

594
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 2: I tell you, I'm not only a big fan of

595
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 2: sort of how he handles himself. I'm a big fan

596
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 2: of the way his team plays. I mean they they

597
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 2: I mean Alabama. Not the greatest of Alabama teams, but

598
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 2: still Alabama. And it beat them thirty eight to three,

599
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 2: and they physically dominated them on both sides of the

600
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:48,760
Speaker 2: game of the ball. They're smart, they're tough, they don't

601
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:52,280
Speaker 2: make mistakes. They don't they don't lose the game, right,

602
00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 2: They're not going to give you the game. If you're

603
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 2: gonna beat Indiana, you gotta you have to win the game.

604
00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:01,479
Speaker 2: And so yeah, I love and And to me, teams

605
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:05,960
Speaker 2: are reflections of their coaches in terms of how they play.

606
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 2: And you can just see coach Signetti as a disciplined guy,

607
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 2: and his team plays exactly that way.

608
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,479
Speaker 3: Were you a little surprised on some of the firings today,

609
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 3: Oh one of them?

610
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, you didn't think Arizona was gonna.

611
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 7: He was led to believe up until yesterday that he

612
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 7: was safe.

613
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:29,080
Speaker 9: Really had a meeting and his plan was to fire

614
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:33,920
Speaker 9: the offensive coordinator and bring in Frank Reich. They insisted

615
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,720
Speaker 9: that he also get rid of his defensive coordinator, Nick Ralis,

616
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:38,040
Speaker 9: that's his best friend.

617
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:39,840
Speaker 7: He said no, and he got fired.

618
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 3: Wow, okay, So what was because you've been reporting all

619
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 3: along that you thought that he was in pretty good shape.

620
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 3: So even as of yesterday, they thought his birthday yesterday,

621
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:56,200
Speaker 3: he was Wow, this business is cold now. I saw

622
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 3: you tweeting out that there's a possibility we could see more.

623
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:03,360
Speaker 9: Still, I would still see as far as firings, maybe

624
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:06,480
Speaker 9: one more, and there may be there may be a retirement.

625
00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 7: We'll see.

626
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:08,400
Speaker 1: Who are you thinking?

627
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 7: I ran on the way over. That's why I sound

628
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 7: like this. Todd Bowles is still potentially in hot water.

629
00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:18,600
Speaker 9: He's got I mean, Bruce arians is lobbying for him,

630
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,400
Speaker 9: and he's got a lot of sway with that organization.

631
00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 1: So we'll see as.

632
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,640
Speaker 9: Far as retirement, Tom Mike Tomlin might might hang it

633
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 9: up after this year, go to TV and kind of

634
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:28,520
Speaker 9: have a mutual party of ways, we'll see.

635
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,720
Speaker 7: Wow, there's a TV spot open for him.

636
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 5: I saw before Ben joined us that Raheem Morris.

637
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 1: Is expected to interview for the Titans job. So that's

638
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 1: gonna be really interesting. So I'm a big Raheem Morris fan.

639
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:47,200
Speaker 7: Me I am too, But I think he winds up

640
00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:48,320
Speaker 7: as a defensive coordinator.

641
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 1: I agree, I agree.

642
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 4: What about here if Vance Joseph ens up getting a job.

643
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:55,560
Speaker 9: If Vance ends up getting a job, and let's for

644
00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:58,000
Speaker 9: the sake of hypothetical, say he takes Davis Webb with

645
00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 9: him as an OC. I think Leonard would be his

646
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 9: natural placement here, and I think Logan Kilgore and Pete

647
00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 9: Carmichael would split Davis webs Duty's.

648
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 1: Pipe.

649
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,720
Speaker 7: He got away from that pipe.

650
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:12,960
Speaker 4: You got a little bit of a gruff thing going

651
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 4: on over.

652
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 5: First of all, when when Ben said he's sprinted, that's

653
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:22,680
Speaker 5: two things. We got Ryan running a mile and Ben sprinting.

654
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:24,800
Speaker 5: When was the last time you sprinted.

655
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 7: At that speed?

656
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 1: It's been a few years. Hmmm, that speed?

657
00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 7: I made it before the Buzzer though, you did, so let.

658
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 2: Me ask you since you would. You know you've worked

659
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 2: with Ryan a lot over the years. I think Ryan

660
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 2: can run a mile in thirteen minutes or less.

661
00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:43,560
Speaker 9: If he can't run a mile in thirteen minutes, unless

662
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 9: there's a problem there, you go run Okay.

663
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 4: I appreciate the vote conference.

664
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 1: Positive about you can we go to Cherry Creek an

665
00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 1: the school you can do.

666
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,240
Speaker 2: Why don't we just maybe in the next couple of weeks,

667
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 2: maybe before the Broncos, maybe for the Brocos first postseason game.

668
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,360
Speaker 3: Yes, I think we could just assume that I could

669
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:05,760
Speaker 3: do it, and that's a good Numble video.

670
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 7: I think you could get a mile in like eight

671
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 7: or nine minutes.

672
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:13,480
Speaker 2: Man, No, I'm not going eight minutes.

673
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,200
Speaker 1: You can put your mind. I believe in you. Why

674
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,040
Speaker 1: don't we just you too? But not eight minutes? Well

675
00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:19,920
Speaker 1: we know what you know?

676
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 5: What what does it say when people start tossing Ryan right?

677
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:27,600
Speaker 5: What happens when you start to soum You make a

678
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 5: donkey out of me?

679
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 3: And you a great, great job as always appreciates you, Nick.
