1 00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:03,040 Speaker 1: Steelers at Detroit. 2 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:06,080 Speaker 2: Joining me now a man who played for both teams 3 00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 2: and played well, he is the great Charlie Batch. Charlie, 4 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:12,880 Speaker 2: you played for the Lions, here for the Steelers, but 5 00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:15,160 Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure you're rooted for the Steelers when this 6 00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:16,079 Speaker 2: matchup takes place. 7 00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 3: Correct, Oh, absolutely I do. 8 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:21,079 Speaker 4: And if you know this, you know, obviously my heart 9 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:23,119 Speaker 4: is in Pittsburgh, but I started my career in Detroit, 10 00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:25,800 Speaker 4: and you know, and then selfishly, I'm like, man, I 11 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 4: hope that the Steelers continued their success against the Lions 12 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 4: because each year that it happens, or every time that happens, 13 00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 4: I could turn around and say, hey, it's been so 14 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 4: long since the Lions had beaten the Steelers, because now 15 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:38,480 Speaker 4: it's twenty six years and that was the last quarterback 16 00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 4: for the Lions to beat the Steelers back in nineteen 17 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:40,919 Speaker 4: ninety eight. 18 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,240 Speaker 2: What is the Steelers' best bet to win this game 19 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 2: at Detroit, Charlie? 20 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:46,960 Speaker 1: What kind of game does it need to be? 21 00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 4: This is I mean, they're going to have to control 22 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 4: the line of scrimmage because those those backs by the Lions, 23 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 4: they are a great one two punch, and I know 24 00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 4: they had success last week against the Dolphins, but prior 25 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 4: to that we've seen two hundred yards given up. Cannot 26 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 4: go into this game allowing Detroit to be able to 27 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 4: run the football because if they do, that opens up 28 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,319 Speaker 4: the play action game and that's where you give up 29 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:08,119 Speaker 4: those chunk plays. 30 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,039 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with that. 31 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 2: I just wonder if the Tomlin mentality will allow them. 32 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:16,679 Speaker 1: I mean, Tomlin likes the force rock fights. 33 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 2: We know that, but I don't think Detroit will let 34 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,399 Speaker 2: themselves get sucked into that in a home game indoors. 35 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 4: Do you, No, not at all, and they're going to 36 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:28,039 Speaker 4: be aggressive, and that's Dan Campbell's mentality. He wants to 37 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,199 Speaker 4: push the ball down the field. You know, he goes 38 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 4: forward on fourth down pretty much every time. So if 39 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 4: that's the case, there is no Hey getting excited because 40 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,559 Speaker 4: you stop them on third down. You have to play 41 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 4: four down football against the Lions because Dan Campbell's mentality 42 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 4: is keep the foot on the pedal and he's going 43 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 4: to try to turn around and bury you early in 44 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:47,559 Speaker 4: ball games. 45 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 2: How good is that Detroit offense? Charlie Goff and Gibbs 46 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 2: and boy a lot of weapons, right. 47 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 4: They are really good and they even better when they 48 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 4: play at home. Because that team is built on speed. 49 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 4: That's how they develop their team. They know they're playing 50 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 4: on turf, there is no weather conditions, and they are 51 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 4: looking to push the football down the field, so they 52 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 4: are extremely dangerous. 53 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 1: Do we underrate Golf? 54 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 2: I sometimes find myself thinking he's top five. Sometimes he 55 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,639 Speaker 2: has a stinker of a game. I think he's mostly consistent. 56 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 2: Though where do you put him in the hierarchy? 57 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 3: Yeah? 58 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 4: I put him up there towards the top, and people 59 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 4: forget that this guy actually led the Rams to the 60 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 4: super Bowl, even though they lost in that football game. 61 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 4: But so he's you know, technically he's as super Bowl quarterback. 62 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 4: But I think ultimately he's trying to help change the 63 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 4: mentality of what's going on to Detroit. 64 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 3: They believe in him. 65 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 4: They made the trade, they actually extended him contract wise, 66 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 4: and they truly. 67 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 3: Believe in what he's capable of doing. 68 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 4: And because we don't really see him often, this guy 69 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 4: is tall in stature, he has a great arm, and 70 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,079 Speaker 4: he can put balls in tight, tight spots. 71 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 2: Now, with wat and her Big presumably both out, and 72 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 2: they add in Moon from Carolina's practice squad. He played 73 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 2: for the Steelers before. Who's going to step up on 74 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 2: that edge. Do you think you're enough to blitzmore to 75 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 2: get the golf? 76 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,639 Speaker 4: Yeah, you're gonna have to, And I think I think 77 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 4: it's two sides. I think yes, once you do, but 78 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 4: then also you may have to have that been that 79 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 4: break mentality like this defense has been doing keeping them 80 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,640 Speaker 4: out of the end zone. I don't know what that 81 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 4: rotation looks like, but when you make a move for 82 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 4: Jeremiah Moon in the manner that they did, you pick 83 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 4: him off the practice squad. Now you have to activate 84 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 4: him for three games. So I'll let you know, somebody 85 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 4: within that rotation is not going to be available. And 86 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 4: that's why you brought Moon on here. Not a lot 87 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 4: to get excited about. We haven't seen his body of 88 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 4: work up until this point. But again, that's going to 89 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 4: have to be a position that they have to put 90 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 4: pressure on Jared Goff without technically bringing the blitz at times. 91 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 2: Well, I think an opportunity is there for Jack Sawyer, 92 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 2: the rookie. He's going to be matched up against Suwell 93 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 2: a lot though, and that's a tough nut to crack. 94 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, it really is. 95 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 4: And it's going to be interesting to see really how 96 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 4: they used him on special teams, because if you're playing 97 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 4: him on both, he's gonna wear down as the game 98 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 4: goes on, where sometimes your starters they don't necessarily play 99 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 4: special teams. So this is going to be a huge 100 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 4: opportunity for Jack Sawyer to prove hey, yes, this is 101 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 4: why we drafted you, but also taking that next step 102 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 4: to get this organization excited to say we have a 103 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 4: starter in waiting. 104 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 3: So this is a huge opportunity for Sawyer. 105 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 2: Aiden Hutchinson, who was a handful, normally lines up on 106 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 2: the left side, so he'd be up against Botanu. But 107 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 2: the speculation is because Hutchison moves around that he'll line 108 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 2: up over Dylan Cook a lot. 109 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: How do you combat that matchup? 110 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 2: And I thought Dylan Cook, by the way, did very 111 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 2: well against Miami, but this is a horse of a 112 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 2: different color. 113 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 4: Oh you're right about that, Dylan Cook. He actually played 114 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 4: a fantastic game on Monday night. But now as Hutcherson 115 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 4: is moving around only and this is why it's critical 116 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 4: during the first fifteen plays to try to get those 117 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 4: substitution packages to can't see if you can get an 118 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 4: indication on when Hutchison is going to move from the 119 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 4: right to the left, and if he does stay consistent 120 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 4: on the left side, that's where you just need a 121 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 4: body presence. 122 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 3: That's where you line up with Dow Dartnell Washington there. 123 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 4: That's where you maybe get used to back as a 124 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,919 Speaker 4: chip as he's now leaving out of the backfield. So 125 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 4: that's going to be very critical in the first fifteen 126 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 4: plays to see how he see if you can get 127 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 4: an indication of where he lines up, I. 128 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 2: Believe Rogers can pass on Detroit and score points on Detroit. Charlie, 129 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 2: what about you. I'm mostly worried about him being protected. 130 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 2: I mean, now Fraser spanged up, Dylan Cook's playing, I mean, 131 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 2: my god, what a war of attrition the NFL has become. 132 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, it is. 133 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 4: And this is something that really you know with Zach Fraser, 134 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 4: I mean this is he's a staple of the middle 135 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 4: of that offensive line. So that's what we're going to 136 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,600 Speaker 4: pay attention to that as we move closer to game time. 137 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 4: But I think where Aaron is at right now, over 138 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 4: the last couple of weeks, he got what he wanted. 139 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 4: And when I say that, he has his receivers that 140 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 4: he wants playing right now. That's why you're seeing it 141 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 4: a healthy scratched with Rouman Wilson, so obviously that wasn't there. 142 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,479 Speaker 4: And of course Adam Thielen only here for a couple 143 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 4: of days, but yet started the last two games. 144 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,799 Speaker 3: So with that, Aaron Rodgers very familar with Detroit. 145 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 4: He understands playing against the Lions, even though this is 146 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 4: a different offense that he's in. He's gonna want the 147 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 4: ball in his hands because this guy has been making 148 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 4: the proper checks at the line of scrimmage. He's going 149 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,160 Speaker 4: to get you in the right place. I'm glad Arthur 150 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 4: Smith got out the way and allowing Aaron to do 151 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 4: what he does at the line of scrimmage. 152 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 2: Aim into that, Charlie. And here's how I've been describing Rogers. 153 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 2: I think he's mostly vanilla, but it's a very flavorful 154 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 2: brand of vanilla, like Briar's ice cream when you first 155 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 2: cracked the cart and open. He's not doing a ton 156 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 2: because he is forty two. But everything he does, especially 157 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 2: against Miami, was just perfect. 158 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 3: It really was. 159 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 4: And he had everything that the Dolphins was doing. He 160 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 4: countered everything else. But again, that's his experience and that's 161 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 4: what you want, and sometimes you do have to get. 162 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,160 Speaker 3: The ball in your playmaker's hand, allow him to run. 163 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 4: And I say that even on that second fourth and 164 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 4: one opportunity to the left to Kenneth Gainwell, I saw 165 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:53,719 Speaker 4: al flink coverage. He was able to get the ball 166 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 4: in space to Gainwell to pick up a big game 167 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 4: on that fourth down. He's gonna have to continue to 168 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,359 Speaker 4: do that because if he continues to make those reads, 169 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 4: that helps with the time of possession. And we've been 170 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 4: harping on this all year, and on Monday night was 171 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 4: the first time that they truly were in control of 172 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 4: the time and possession, given that defensive rest and allowing 173 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 4: them to go make plays in that second half. 174 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 3: They have to have that formula here this week. 175 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 2: And boy, we saw that with the defense, didn't we. 176 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 2: With their burden lesson, I thought they played so much better. 177 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 2: And that's even without TJ. 178 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: Watt. 179 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 2: I think Cam Hayward's mostly been good all year, Charlie, 180 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 2: but I thought that was just an exceptional game by him. 181 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 3: For example, Yeah, it was. 182 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 4: I mean, this guy, he has been playing you know, 183 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 4: Stouth throughout the course of the season, and he had 184 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 4: a big game on Monday Night. Now what I get 185 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 4: excited about it looks like we're going to have Derek 186 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 4: Harmon the first round pick something. You know, when he played, 187 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 4: he plays, he plays good, but he's missed a lot 188 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 4: of time with injury. 189 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 3: You hope that there's a fuel to the fire of 190 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 3: this game because he is going home. He is from Detroit. 191 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,239 Speaker 4: You know, he's gonna have a lot of family members 192 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 4: that are going to be in this game rooting for 193 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 4: the hometown team, are now playing against the hometown team. 194 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 3: So this is going to be a big game for him. 195 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 4: So I'm looking for that one two ta combo between 196 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 4: Cam and Dereck Harmon to show up in a big way. 197 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 2: You know what I would say right before the game 198 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 2: to him, Charlie, I'd say, gee, I hope your family 199 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 2: doesn't see it suck. 200 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 4: Trust me, there are little tip is that you throw 201 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 4: out there throughout the course of the week, and that 202 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 4: is the caveat right there. Don't embarrass the family name 203 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 4: when you are now taking the field out there, and 204 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 4: hopefully that gets in going Charlie, here's. 205 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 2: Kind of an odd question, but I think it's interesting. 206 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 2: Are the Steelers trending upward in your mind? Or have 207 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 2: they just won a couple games in the row, because 208 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,559 Speaker 2: those aren't necessarily the same thing. 209 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 5: Are they? 210 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 4: No, they're not. And I think they're trending in the 211 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,959 Speaker 4: right direction, and mostly because of that offensive line up front. 212 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 4: They have been starting to play solid. But now when 213 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 4: you add the injuries there, you know, I know we 214 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:48,319 Speaker 4: didn't you know, we talked about to tackle a lot 215 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 4: over the last couple of weeks. But is Zach Frazier 216 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 4: and you have Isaac say Malu, those two had been 217 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 4: the brains of that offensive line, and now with say 218 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 4: Malu banged up, what does that tricep look like? 219 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 3: So you know, with a. 220 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 4: Peck and a tricep for an offensive lineman, that is 221 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 4: a tough pass. So it's going to be something to 222 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 4: monitor as we get close to the game time. 223 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 2: Charlie, here's what I've been saying all week. I think 224 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 2: the Steelers are trending upward, but slightly. Two wins is 225 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 2: two wins and that's good, but they're still eight and six. 226 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 2: I want them to win out. I see the remaining 227 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 2: three games is all winnable. You want a trend upward, 228 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 2: you want real momentum for the playoffs. 229 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 5: Do that. 230 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 2: If they do that, I would really think they'd win 231 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 2: a playoff game, and. 232 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 4: That's the trend that you want, and that gets us 233 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:36,319 Speaker 4: excited about what. 234 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 3: The potential could be in the playoffs. 235 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 4: So if you start to get hot at the right time, 236 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 4: this is what you want to do in December. Start 237 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 4: stacking wins and convince other teams that are watching that 238 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 4: you are for real and you don't want to be 239 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,719 Speaker 4: a Regon. They'd be reckoned in the playoffs. These are 240 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,079 Speaker 4: things that you want other people to feel. So that's 241 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,319 Speaker 4: why these three games are important, and obviously heading into 242 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 4: the playoffs, it looks like they're going to be that direction. 243 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 4: This is what's going to get everybody excited. So they 244 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 4: know that task at hand and I'm hoping they get 245 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 4: it done. 246 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 2: Who do you like in that Ravens New England game, Charlie, 247 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:10,439 Speaker 2: because that has great bearing on understandings and on the Steelers. 248 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 3: Yeah. 249 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 4: I think the Ravens are going to figure out a 250 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 4: way to get it done. You know, I think, you know, 251 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 4: we know they're going to run the football, but I 252 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 4: think they're going to control that time of possession and 253 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 4: they're going to really give New England a little bit 254 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 4: of taste of their own medicine. By your controling that 255 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 4: time of possession Baltimore, I think they start to get 256 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 4: these sneaky wins that are here. I know they have 257 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 4: New England, they have Green Bay, and they're preparing for 258 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:32,959 Speaker 4: that game at least staying within striking distance to make 259 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 4: sure that that January fourth game matters. 260 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I gotta be honest, Charlie. Part of me, I mean, 261 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 2: I'd like to see the Steelers wrap it up before 262 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 2: that Week eighteen game, but there'd be something really exciting 263 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 2: about Ravens at Pittsburgh with the division title up for grabs, wasn't. 264 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 4: There, And that's what the NFL schedule makers want. Selfishly 265 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 4: for me, I don't want that because if they go 266 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 4: down to that game, we know either it's gonna be 267 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 4: Saturday night at eight o'clock or it's going to be 268 00:10:58,120 --> 00:10:59,320 Speaker 4: Sunday night at eight o'clock. 269 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 3: That's going to be a timetime game. 270 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:02,960 Speaker 4: I just don't want that because that means I finished 271 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 4: on the post game radio at two thirty in the morning. 272 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 3: So let's get their Steelers. 273 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,839 Speaker 4: To wrap this up prior to so that Sunday game 274 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 4: will be a one o'clock game on January fourth. 275 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 2: Charlie, from your lips to God's ears. Tom Offerman, my producer, 276 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 2: he works with you guys, and it's just that even 277 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,200 Speaker 2: me that Sunday night game, I'm usually somewhere watching the game, 278 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 2: and you don't get home to win. My god, you're right, 279 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 2: you have put things in proper perspective. My friend, who 280 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 2: do you like in this game? I kind of like, 281 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 2: you know, what's funny? I feel like the Steelers are 282 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 2: gonna win a close one or maybe get killed. And 283 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 2: I feel bad saying that. I think they're more likely 284 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 2: to win a close one. But what do you think? 285 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I think it's gonna be a hagh 286 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,680 Speaker 4: scoring game. I think both of these teams are gonna 287 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 4: put up a lot of points. To me selfishly, I 288 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 4: think the Steelers have to put up at least thirty 289 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 4: three point thirty three, thirty four points to get stay 290 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 4: in this ball game here. 291 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 3: Are they capable of doing it? It's possible. 292 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 4: Why because they score thirty three points against it yet, 293 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,679 Speaker 4: so we've seen them put up thirty points. Now they 294 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 4: just have to go up here and play winning football. 295 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 4: Don't beat themselves. We know the formula for this team. 296 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:11,439 Speaker 4: They have to create turnovers, make Jeric goff uncomfortable, get 297 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 4: him off of this spot and making pay for it 298 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 4: by interception or a fumble, sack, strip, sack, fumble or 299 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 4: something like that in order for them to you know, 300 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 4: distance himself in this game. It is a winnable game, 301 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 4: that's for sure. But ultimately, when you look at this 302 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 4: game six and a half point underdog, that may be 303 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 4: the most disrespectful thing that these odd makers can do 304 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 4: for you, because that's almost equivalent to a twenty one 305 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 4: point spread in college. Hopefully these Steelers can motivate, get motivated, 306 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:38,680 Speaker 4: and use that as fuel. 307 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 2: Charlie, am I wrong when I think I think we'll 308 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 2: know who's gonna win after one quarter? That the game 309 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 2: will go in a direction that either really favors Pittsburger 310 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 2: doesn't it does. 311 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 4: It can be a twenty one to three first quarter, 312 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 4: or it can be a you know, ten to nine 313 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 4: ball game. Mean, the Steelers are in it, so they 314 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,559 Speaker 4: just have to keep it close and they can't allow 315 00:12:58,600 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 4: it to get out of. 316 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 3: Control because that team is very explosive. 317 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 4: So this is something to your point, first quarter, we'll 318 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,319 Speaker 4: know exactly what direction we're going, Charlie. 319 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 2: Great stuff, Great stuff with the podcast with Trey. Great 320 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 2: stuff on the postgame show. We'll do it again next week. 321 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I appreciate it.

I mean, what do you 351 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 2: mean by must win? If they make the playoffs. They 352 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 2: make the playoffs, But I'm talking about the show. They're 353 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 2: a serious contender. You got to win the next three 354 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 2: games and finish eleven and six. That's what series contenders do. 355 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 2: They improve and get hot at the right time. Now, 356 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 2: do I think it's gonna happen. No, Because old teams 357 00:14:58,040 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 2: and this is a very old team. 358 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 5: Uh. 359 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 2: They they don't get better as the season goes on. 360 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 2: They just get older. 361 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 7: Oh, I one hundred percent agree. I was just more 362 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 7: less talking about if he was to ever lose any 363 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 7: moving forward a wild card game matchup, he is not 364 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 7: too good at all, and I think it would be 365 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 7: an end for the season. The Steelers obviously thank you. 366 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 5: For the call. 367 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 2: I think even if they win out, they are probably 368 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 2: gonna lose the wild card game. 369 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 1: I just don't think they're that good. 370 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 2: But if they if they win five in a row 371 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 2: to end, maybe everybody, including me, changes their opinion. 372 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: Uh thank you. 373 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 2: Recall, by the way, my projected hero for the Steelers 374 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 2: on Sunday, if they do win at Detroit is the 375 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 2: modern day warrior Jack Sawyer. He's gonna step up with 376 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 2: Watt and probably Herbie got There was a photo of 377 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 2: what at eight team Christmas function and people reacted like 378 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 2: it was a lung X ray. 379 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 1: Oh TJ looks okay, that's a good sign. 380 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 2: It's amazing that the Steelers stab their highest paid player 381 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 2: in the lung and it collapsed, and who knows when 382 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 2: he's gonna play again, And the stooge media and you 383 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 2: Mark's out there, you're treating it like he twisted an 384 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 2: ankle at practice, like it's just one of those things 385 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:17,359 Speaker 2: that happened, when the reality is it's insane. It's indicative 386 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 2: of an organization that I think is just not very good. 387 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 2: But Sora will save the day. His mind is not 388 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 2: for rent to any god or government. But right now 389 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 2: I want to talk about bet Parks Live.

The people know I went five and oh 441 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:28,439 Speaker 8: last week. Okay, so let's you know, let's just go 442 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 8: forward with that. You're your your Maine mistake. Can you 443 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 8: miss your Maine mistake? 444 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 6: No? 445 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 1: Okay, what do you want for the Steeler game? 446 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:41,920 Speaker 8: We're gonna take the Steelers plus seven. They're not gonna win, okay, 447 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 8: because Detroit under a U game Campbell is like sixteen 448 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 8: to one after a loss through great great trends there. 449 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:53,959 Speaker 8: But Avanon Rodgers is very familiar with that that are 450 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:58,919 Speaker 8: that building. He's played well in Detroit. The Steelers, I 451 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 8: don't think, because they're like during the Driver's scene now 452 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 8: and Baltimore has a game against New England on Sunday night, 453 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 8: and the Steelers get Cleveland next week. So I think 454 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 8: the Steelers, I think they may be able to I 455 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 8: nip it in the bud. They're gonna bring effort, They're 456 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 8: gonna keep it close Detroit at a very leaky defense, 457 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,639 Speaker 8: and Aaron Rodgers is playing pretty well. You know you 458 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 8: might have to like you crowing Aeron Rodgers. You are 459 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 8: very adamant and vocal. You're not like Rogers is a quarterback. 460 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:34,639 Speaker 2: That's just not true. That's just not true. You're the 461 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 2: one who hates the Steelers. You hate the Steelers. You 462 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 2: pick against them all the time. Now you're trying to 463 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:43,439 Speaker 2: get back to the audience good side. You are pushing 464 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 2: a scoundrel. 465 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 8: No, no, no, you know what you are. You're deplorable 466 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 8: and in this, in this it's like did you. 467 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 1: You I am not. 468 00:20:55,720 --> 00:21:00,959 Speaker 2: I talked to hr they said it's okay, Okay, that's fine. Okay, 469 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 2: so the Steelers plus seven, what is your lock of 470 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 2: the week. 471 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:10,959 Speaker 8: We're gonna take the Raiders plus fourteen. Okay, there there 472 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 8: are charge I don't know why, but for some reason 473 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 8: they were terrible with Kenny Picken. 474 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 1: He was, uh yeah, I'm pretty sure I know why. 475 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,120 Speaker 8: Okay, I thought he was, like, you know, I thought 476 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 8: he might have been the best quarterback in league coming 477 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 8: out of college. Hasn't maybe conspired against him, you know, 478 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:30,919 Speaker 8: like he may not have. 479 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 2: No Sanders is the conspiracy victim. 480 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 8: Okay, who, you're absoutely right about that, but uh, Houston's 481 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,439 Speaker 8: you know, they're out, their defense is tremendous to the 482 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 8: best team in the league. They're uh, their offense is 483 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 8: getting better. But you're you're laying fourteen points in a 484 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:59,160 Speaker 8: very flat spot. And this this line is inflated because 485 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 8: the Raiders been the bad but Gino is coming back 486 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 8: as quarterback. He's cause you know, fourteen points is late 487 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 8: in the season when you got like the Chargers up 488 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 8: next and you're in the playoff one. But you're comfortable 489 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 8: and like, you can't on a game or lose position. 490 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 8: The game the matters next week is the game against 491 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 8: sin against the Chargers. Just take the fourteen here, there's like, 492 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 8: there's good trends on him.

Uh, 508 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 8: the Steelers buried them in the cold too. Is now 509 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 8: to give quarterback he's like the thirtieth rae quarterback in 510 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 8: the league, but they're going to quinn Ewers who who's 511 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 8: claimed the famous He like he like outplayed arch Manning 512 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:43,919 Speaker 8: for the starting job of Texas. He's not good. I 513 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,360 Speaker 8: think you know he saw that.

They weren't playing hurry up offense. 519 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:04,880 Speaker 8: Who's steering his pad and is freezing cold. Everybody's quitting 520 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 8: my team. This is gonna be a late they're going 521 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 8: to laying down.

Don't forget I'll be watching the game at 626 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:08,080 Speaker 2: Celebrations in Imperial that's right on Steubenville Pike. I think 627 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 2: Detroit's probably gonna kill the Steelers because I don't think 628 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 2: the Steelers will slow down that offense. I think Tomlin's 629 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 2: too dumb to come out and just admit that the 630 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 2: defense can't try to outscore the lines, which I think 631 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 2: they can if Rodgers keeps playing like he did the 632 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 2: last couple of weeks. I also think Detroit has more 633 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 2: to lose in this game than the Steelers. I don't 634 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 2: know how Detroit's lost six games, and I don't know 635 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 2: how the Steelers have won eight. To me, it's nutty, 636 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 2: but also won't surprise me if the Steelers eked out 637 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 2: a close win. I think the Steelers either get killed 638 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 2: or they eke out a close win. We've been talking 639 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 2: a lot about the Penguins as well. That game last night, 640 00:29:55,840 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 2: very very disappointing. Penguins got killed four or nil at Ottawa. 641 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 2: That's seven losses in a row and Twitter is outraised. 642 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,959 Speaker 2: But once Mario comes back to run things, everything will 643 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 2: straighten out. Except he's not. Hey, if you want the truth, 644 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 2: the good start was fool's gold. We overreacted. I did 645 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 2: two and this is just what the team is, which 646 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 2: is not very good, and there's nobody to blame. This 647 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 2: is what rebuilding looks like, and it's not easy, even 648 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 2: more so when you have to keep the core three together. 649 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 2: Just because you have to keep the core three together, 650 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,960 Speaker 2: Chill loves is horrible, but they got shut out. 651 00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: Hey, I could go into detail. It's a stink sandwich. 652 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 2: What I hate most is that they're getting away from 653 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 2: emphasizing the young guys and turning the team back over 654 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 2: to a bunch of bummy old veterans, not the Big three. 655 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 1: I'm talking the. 656 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 2: Kevin Hayeses and the Nola Chari's and I don't even 657 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 2: know why. Danton Frigginheinen's on the team at all anymore. 658 00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:00,120 Speaker 2: None of it exactly ideal for the Dad's trip.

How would you describe any color 713 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,719 Speaker 10: on the planet to someone who has never seen before, 714 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 10: lying since birth? 715 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 8: How would you do it? 716 00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 1: I wouldn't. Why would there be a need to do that? 717 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 5: I don't know. 718 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 10: We want to deski the beautiful green golf course to 719 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 10: a blind guy? 720 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 8: How would you? 721 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 10: I want to hear how the super genius would do it? 722 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 8: Or how beautiful the. 723 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 5: Sky looks today? 724 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:16,720 Speaker 2: It would literally be impossible to do because the person 725 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 2: who was well, I wouldn't. I wouldn't try, I wouldn't bother, 726 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:22,840 Speaker 2: I wouldn't get myself frustrated because there was no logical 727 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 2: way to do it, and the super Genius deals in logic. Next, 728 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:34,760 Speaker 2: he got the franchise Saint Douglas, former ECW World Heavyweight Champion. 729 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,240 Speaker 2: He's got an event going on the hardcore holiday Happy 730 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:42,799 Speaker 2: Hour tomorrow night, six to eight pm at Helltown on 731 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 2: the Strip, one O five to nine. It's time not 732 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:47,719 Speaker 2: to Welcome to the show. He is the first and 733 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:52,360 Speaker 2: forever ECW World Heavyweight Champion from Beaver Connie. Got a 734 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,840 Speaker 2: bunch of stuff going on in Pittsburgh this weekend. He 735 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:58,440 Speaker 2: is the franchise Shane Douglas. Shane, we'll get to your 736 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:01,480 Speaker 2: events in just a little bit. But why isn't there 737 00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 2: an R rated promotion now? Like ECW in its big era, 738 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:09,440 Speaker 2: All that style of wrestlings died down, hasn't it? 739 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:14,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, great question. You know, there's lots of people love vanilla, 740 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:16,840 Speaker 5: and there's a lot more that I think love chocolate, 741 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 5: and there's probably a few that love white cherry. Go figure. Uh, 742 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 5: but they have the choice to go out and buy 743 00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:25,480 Speaker 5: what they want. For some reason, our industry has decided 744 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 5: we're gonna give either all vanilla, all chocolate, or all 745 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:32,440 Speaker 5: white cherry. And they've excluded a world of people. It 746 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:34,080 Speaker 5: used to be when you and I were working together 747 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 5: in WSW and the three companies in business, there was 748 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:41,000 Speaker 5: an average weekly viewership in America alone of forty eight 749 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 5: to fifty two million people tuning into put wrestling. Now 750 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:47,440 Speaker 5: two three four million, let's double that and say six 751 00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 5: give him a real benefit. Uh, that's still I don't 752 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 5: know about you. If I'm selling Hamburgers, I want to 753 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 5: sell the fifty two million people, not six or three years. 754 00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 2: Oh, no question. But everybody lies about the ratings. They 755 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 2: try to tie it into streaming, into YouTube, and it's 756 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 2: just not the same. The advertisers certainly don't think it's 757 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 2: the same correct. And I don't know why there's no 758 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:11,400 Speaker 2: adult themes and really, Shane, there's no stories either. 759 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:12,440 Speaker 1: There's just matches. 760 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,879 Speaker 2: It seems like so much of it is randomly put 761 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:15,799 Speaker 2: together on the day. 762 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 5: Aymen, Well, here's another way to blow your mind. One 763 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:23,239 Speaker 5: of the most transformational television shows in wrestling history. All 764 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:26,400 Speaker 5: the Family would never make air today. Well, right, so 765 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,840 Speaker 5: you know you can't go to that. You and me 766 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:31,640 Speaker 5: were on the same page. I agree with everything is 767 00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 5: hit at the top there, but I also agree with 768 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 5: what you're saying about wrestling. I'm one of those guys 769 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:38,880 Speaker 5: that wants to push the envelope of the storytelling and 770 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 5: I don't want to be cartoonized. I'm a little bit 771 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:44,600 Speaker 5: too old for that. I love the sport of professional 772 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 5: wrestling and so please somebody give it back to us. 773 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's funny too, because ECW got copied by everybody, 774 00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:55,719 Speaker 2: you know, the attitude era in WW and then it 775 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:56,839 Speaker 2: all just disappeared. 776 00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 1: And like I said, now there's no stories, there's no 777 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 1: adult themes. They're just matches. 778 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:05,040 Speaker 2: And the promotion that's disappointed me the most is AEW 779 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,000 Speaker 2: because they had the money with Tony Kahan to go 780 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,799 Speaker 2: in a different direction, maybe in the direction that you 781 00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:14,239 Speaker 2: and I would like, but whatever they've chosen is just 782 00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:17,960 Speaker 2: WWE lighte with recycling guys. I mean, I had hoped 783 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,880 Speaker 2: they would stick with guys like Guavara and now a 784 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 2: kid like Ace Austin is their stars MJF guys who 785 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 2: hadn't been overexposed. But I mean, they just brought back 786 00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 2: a bunch of guys to TV who didn't need to 787 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 2: be on TV no more. 788 00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:34,719 Speaker 5: Well, I don't watch it enough to like go through 789 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:37,399 Speaker 5: piece by piece like that, but I'll say this, when 790 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 5: they started, I'll keep in mind, we had one of 791 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:42,839 Speaker 5: these a decade ago, Dixie Carter at the time, spent 792 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:46,480 Speaker 5: seven hundred and sixty eight. They're about million dollars, millions 793 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:49,080 Speaker 5: of dollars and had nothing to show for it. Mike 794 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 5: with TNA, Yeah, Yeah, with TNA. Tony Kahn has gone 795 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 5: over the billion dollar mark and their ratings two weeks 796 00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,080 Speaker 5: agoing over. I checked the last time three hundred and 797 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:03,960 Speaker 5: ninety six thousand. So unless they got fifty million streaming 798 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:08,480 Speaker 5: and not being registered somewhere, I'd say Daddy might want 799 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 5: to get his CTAs involved here fairly soon. 800 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:11,239 Speaker 1: No question. 801 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:13,520 Speaker 2: We're not going to Shane Douglas the franchise here on 802 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:15,480 Speaker 2: one oh five nine.

Yeah, and back in 829 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,120 Speaker 5: the day, you know, Paul Aman said, come on, somebody's 830 00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:38,319 Speaker 5: gonna work with Francine, and so I said, I'll take 831 00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:39,360 Speaker 5: a bullet for the boys. 832 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:43,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, they they had to beg you to do it. 833 00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:44,319 Speaker 1: I gotta cut you off there. 834 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:48,640 Speaker 2: That's tomorrow night, six to eight at at Hell Time 835 00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:50,279 Speaker 2: Strip District tap Room. 836 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 1: That's the hardcore holiday happy hour. 837 00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:57,640 Speaker 2: Shane, here's a cliched question, but what wrestler today preferably 838 00:39:57,640 --> 00:39:59,239 Speaker 2: a younger guy. Do you like I mean, I know 839 00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 2: you're like me. You don't watch it nearly as extensive 840 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,840 Speaker 2: we used to. But somebody got to jump to mind. 841 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:06,080 Speaker 2: Oh well, MJF. 842 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:09,479 Speaker 5: You mentioned earlier Dolph Ziggler another I've been talking about 843 00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:11,879 Speaker 5: this guy for twenty years and I cannot figure out 844 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:15,359 Speaker 5: who he's got heat with. Because he's a talented guy, 845 00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 5: he gets pushed for a month and shoved down the 846 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 5: list for three or four months. Remember Steve Bustin's to say, 847 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:24,319 Speaker 5: if Vince wants you over, he'll trump a racketeer, and 848 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:27,879 Speaker 5: I don't think they've done that with Dolph. MJF. I'm 849 00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:30,120 Speaker 5: gonna hear from you. Why do you think MJF is 850 00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:30,600 Speaker 5: so over? 851 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:31,719 Speaker 3: Well. 852 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:32,959 Speaker 1: I think he's a great heel. 853 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:35,320 Speaker 2: I think he's very much in the tradition of Roddy Piper, 854 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 2: who was his idol growing up, and he cuts great promos. 855 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 1: But I think he still needs a bit of an editor. 856 00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:44,839 Speaker 2: I think he is allowed to say everything he wants 857 00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:47,600 Speaker 2: in ae W and I think he's really good, but 858 00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:49,400 Speaker 2: still kind of raw in that regard. 859 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 5: I think he needs steered a bit. What do you think, Yeah, 860 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:54,520 Speaker 5: I would agree with that. I would have turned it deffinitely, 861 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:57,359 Speaker 5: but the exact same definition. He's just playing an old 862 00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 5: school heel. What perplexes me is when you're a young 863 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:03,400 Speaker 5: guy in the rest and addressing him. Trust God was 864 00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 5: once when you see somebody getting you know, explosives response 865 00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 5: out there, you start to pay attention to go, what's 866 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 5: he doing that? I'm not? What's he doing that? 867 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 3: I'm not? 868 00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:16,800 Speaker 5: And I don't know if anybody's doing that there. I agree, 869 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:19,480 Speaker 5: I think that Tony Kahn if and I've never met 870 00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:21,200 Speaker 5: the guy, I just want to say, like what I'm 871 00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:25,520 Speaker 5: viewing it like you scantly watching h I think he 872 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:27,640 Speaker 5: lets the guys just do whatever they want to do. 873 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:28,359 Speaker 6: Uh. 874 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:30,480 Speaker 5: And I base that off the things I've seen online 875 00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:34,359 Speaker 5: and things I've heard from different people. You know sometimes 876 00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:36,839 Speaker 5: and you know this, in wrestling, we're all crazy, right, 877 00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:39,120 Speaker 5: So you can't let the inmates run that asylum where 878 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,160 Speaker 5: you'll end up with inmate running the crazy asylum. 879 00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:41,520 Speaker 3: Yeah. 880 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,279 Speaker 2: But the problem there is Shane And I've met Tony 881 00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:44,919 Speaker 2: a number of times. 882 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:45,640 Speaker 1: He's a good guy. 883 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:48,440 Speaker 2: I think he actually has a decent wrestling mind. He 884 00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:51,719 Speaker 2: just needs steered himself. But but but the problem is 885 00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:54,920 Speaker 2: he's an easy paycheck and nobody wants to tell that 886 00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 2: emperor he has no clothes. 887 00:41:57,440 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 5: Well that's yeah. I remember when Vince was on Steve 888 00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:03,040 Speaker 5: Austin's podcast several years ago and he said, everybody in 889 00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,360 Speaker 5: the dressing rooms to reach for the golden ring. And Steve, 890 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:06,799 Speaker 5: so what do they miss it is when they said 891 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,600 Speaker 5: reach for the golden ring. So talk about a confusing 892 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:11,440 Speaker 5: message to everybody in the locker room. 893 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:11,799 Speaker 8: Uh. 894 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a shame if that's the case, because you know, 895 00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:17,600 Speaker 5: like you said, they've got seemingly the few times I've 896 00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:19,160 Speaker 5: been a bit to the I think four or five 897 00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:23,319 Speaker 5: of their events, they seem to have the enthusiasm, they 898 00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:26,279 Speaker 5: seem to have clearly the money, which is the big thing. 899 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:29,160 Speaker 5: As you know. Uh, they certainly have talent in that 900 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:33,880 Speaker 5: dressing room. But when you hear talent, certain talent saying 901 00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:36,840 Speaker 5: a few years ago, there's we're not listening to legends 902 00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:39,640 Speaker 5: anymore because there's nothing they can teach us. I would 903 00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:41,920 Speaker 5: beg to differm. My god, if I hadn't had dominic 904 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:45,439 Speaker 5: In Bruno and pez Watt, the litany of guys I had, 905 00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 5: Ricky Steve wouldn't be talking to me. Yeah, you wouldn't 906 00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:49,719 Speaker 5: be talking to me right now, you'd be talking to 907 00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:53,560 Speaker 5: somebody else. It's invaluable what you learn from those guys. 908 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 1: And finally, Shane, here's the question. 909 00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:59,040 Speaker 2: Everybody's talking about seeing a wrestled his last match, but 910 00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:00,920 Speaker 2: I don't believe for a second his last match. 911 00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 1: But let's assume it was. Would you have had him 912 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:04,360 Speaker 1: tap the gunther? 913 00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:09,160 Speaker 5: No? Not not as well. I you know, I understand 914 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:10,719 Speaker 5: why somebody like John would want to do it. 915 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:13,799 Speaker 2: I might have had him lose, but I'm not sure 916 00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:16,200 Speaker 2: it would have done it exactly that convincingly. 917 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, consideringly that they made the big bill that 918 00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:23,359 Speaker 5: he'd never done in his career. But you can see how, 919 00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:29,879 Speaker 5: you know, when Brock was wrestling the Undertaker, how those 920 00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:31,879 Speaker 5: of us in our business that want to give back 921 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:33,600 Speaker 5: will try to do something like that. So I don't 922 00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:36,319 Speaker 5: fault John for trying and full his closer. I didn't 923 00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:39,160 Speaker 5: watch it, my sons had told me about it. I 924 00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:41,799 Speaker 5: wouldn't have done it that way, at least in the 925 00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:44,279 Speaker 5: in the sense that they did it. It would have 926 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,960 Speaker 5: required a different build up, in a different tack when 927 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:48,920 Speaker 5: they had him at Wrestlemann. He has the heel and 928 00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:51,680 Speaker 5: then flipping, you know, like sort of mismatching, going back 929 00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:54,960 Speaker 5: and forth. You know, it sort of loses its edge. 930 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:56,480 Speaker 5: I think as soon as soon. 931 00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:57,799 Speaker 1: As the Rock got uninvolved. 932 00:43:57,800 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 2: No offense to John, who I like and I think 933 00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:02,400 Speaker 2: is had you know, a top ten fifteen career of 934 00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:05,480 Speaker 2: all time, it kind of lost its team. Shame again. 935 00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:07,640 Speaker 2: Thank you for taking the time. Can't wait for the 936 00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:10,400 Speaker 2: Hilltime thing tomorrow night. We'll recap everything in a second, 937 00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:10,920 Speaker 2: but good. 938 00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,800 Speaker 5: Job, beautifull appreciate man.
