That's what get be Oh. 16 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, you fired up for the Buckeyes, Joe, Is that 17 00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 4: what it is? 18 00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 3: I'm looking forward to that game. 19 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:00,120 Speaker 5: You know. 20 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 3: It's been interesting to last what seven to ten days, 21 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 3: ever since Miami beat Texas A and m where there's 22 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 3: this idea that Miami might be able to expose a 23 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 3: couple of flaws in Ohio State and I'm curious about it. 24 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 3: In fact, I spoke to Seth McLaughlin inside the Banglis 25 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,199 Speaker 3: locker room yesterday and I was talking to him about 26 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 3: the idea that Miami has these guys on the defensive 27 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,600 Speaker 3: line that can really get after Ohio State's offensive line, 28 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 3: who doesn't have a great run game they're not great 29 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:31,680 Speaker 3: and short yardage and he said, what are we doing? 30 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 3: He said, what are we what are we doing? He said, 31 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:36,399 Speaker 3: Ohio State has the best roster in the sport. They're 32 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:37,679 Speaker 3: going to win the game. And he said, you know, 33 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 3: in fact, they're going to score a lot of points. 34 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 3: So I said, okay, okay, you called your shot. We'll 35 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 3: see how it is. He does think Georgia is a 36 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 3: big threat. 37 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 2: But George's flying under the radar. 38 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 3: Last year thinks that Ohio State could beat Miami. What's 39 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 3: that time. 40 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 2: George's flying under the radar. I feel like from a 41 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 2: lot of people, no one talks about the SEC champs 42 00:01:58,080 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 2: or plus five hundred to win it all? 43 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 3: How can nobody be talking about the SCR Nobody from 44 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 3: thet CC is ever under the radar? Come on, now, 45 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:13,399 Speaker 3: come on now, now, what's interest thing about Georgia is Georgia. 46 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 3: All the numbers throughout the year will tell you that 47 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 3: that this isn't normal Georgia. Georgia's defense isn't built like 48 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,920 Speaker 3: it usually is. But there's also a lot of people, 49 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 3: myself included, who thinks they're rounding into form at the 50 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 3: end of the year and they're playing their best at 51 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:34,239 Speaker 3: the right time. So I think if we get Ohio 52 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 3: State Georgia in the semi finals, it's going to be 53 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:40,919 Speaker 3: a fantastic football game. I think I think the four 54 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 3: quarter finals are all lining up to be great games. 55 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,839 Speaker 3: But certainly when talking about Ohio State Miami, I kind 56 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:48,799 Speaker 3: of lean with Seth mclough. From the closer we get 57 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:50,239 Speaker 3: to the game, I think Ohio State is going to 58 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 3: be fine. 59 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 2: I think it'll be fascinating with the four teams that 60 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 2: had buys last year all losing, how teams deal with 61 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 2: that extra time off. But outside of that, I agree 62 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 2: you Ohigh State's got the best roster of the remaining teams. 63 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 2: They should win the game. Before we dive into the Bengals, Joe, 64 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 2: let me ask two NFL questions for you. One, who 65 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 2: is your NFL MVP? In two, because I think this 66 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 2: list could contain seven or eight different coaches. Who's your 67 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 2: coach of the Year in the NFL? 68 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 3: All right, I'll start with MVP. Up until last night, 69 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 3: it was, for sure Matthew Stafford. And then what Drake 70 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 3: May did this weekend, and then what Matt Stafford did 71 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 3: last night, I think he's closed the gap. I still 72 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 3: kind of sometimes feel like that award, or any award 73 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 3: of that magnitude can be somewhat of a lifetime achievement award, 74 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 3: and so I think Matt Stafford might get the benefit 75 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 3: of the doubt over Drake May because he's played in 76 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 3: the league so long that he might end up getting 77 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 3: that award. But I think what Drake May has done 78 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 3: this year. I go back to what I was having 79 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 3: discussions with some of my friends who watch football as 80 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 3: much as we do, and I sent him a text 81 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,119 Speaker 3: about halfway through the year and I said, Drake May 82 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 3: is a top fill in the blank quarterback right now. 83 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 3: And everybody wanted to say, oh, top ten, top eight. 84 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 3: I'm like, at what point does this guy jump into 85 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,600 Speaker 3: the top five with what he's doing, considering what he's 86 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 3: playing with as well, and now he's not playing with plumbers, 87 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 3: but he certainly doesn't have Davante Adams and Puka Nakua 88 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 3: and Kyron Williams, all guys that can rise to the level 89 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 3: of Pro Bowl players around him. So I think he's 90 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,919 Speaker 3: done more with less than when Matt Stafford does. But 91 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 3: I'm gonna lean Matt Stafford is a bit of a 92 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 3: lifetime achievement. Now as far as Coach of the Year goes, 93 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 3: I'm going to immediately jump to my mind was Sean 94 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 3: McVay and everything he's done. And I think once you 95 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 3: get into a playoff game, you see Sean McVay is 96 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 3: one of the best at what he does. Sure, but 97 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 3: I think and you start thinking about teams that are 98 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 3: going to go to the Super Bowl, and I start 99 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 3: thinking about the AFC and are we going to be 100 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 3: surprised if we look up in six weeks and Dimiko 101 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 3: Ryans at the Houston Texas and the Super Bowl? 102 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 2: I don't think so. 103 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 4: Nope, that what I said. 104 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:13,279 Speaker 3: Is my vote. 105 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 2: Okay, you mentioned Drake May and the quarterback position. They 106 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 2: have one here in Cincinnati. I think could be the top. 107 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 2: If not, he's in the conversation for the top two 108 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 2: in the league, and Joe Burrow He's going to play 109 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 2: on Sunday. Zach Taylor made that very clear. On the 110 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 2: other side of the ball, Miles Garrett's going for the 111 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,239 Speaker 2: NFL sack record. We just saw that that this Cleveland 112 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,280 Speaker 2: defense is still flexing its muscles. I know Joe wants 113 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 2: to play. I know Joe gives them the best chance 114 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 2: to play. Seeing what you've seen the last two weeks, 115 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 2: have you waivered from not at all, or do you 116 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 2: agree with sending Joe Burrow out there on Sunday. 117 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 3: Well, here's what I think is what we're getting. I 118 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 3: think this is Dak Taylor in the Bengals organization understanding 119 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 3: if they want people to come to the game, they 120 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 3: want to sell tickets, they have to say that Joe 121 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 3: Burrows playing. And they say Joe Burrow is playing. Joe 122 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 3: Burrow is going to play what a quarter, maybe two, 123 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,719 Speaker 3: maybe to halftime. I kind of feel like this is 124 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 3: going to play out like a preseason game. This is 125 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 3: just a guess. But if Zach Taylor comes out of 126 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 3: the podiums today and says, you know, Joe Burrow is 127 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 3: not playing, You're going to have thirty five thousand people 128 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 3: in the stadium. But if you come out and say 129 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,840 Speaker 3: Joe Burrow is going to play, there are going to 130 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 3: be people who want to come see him play. There 131 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 3: are a lot of people who've never seen him play 132 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 3: in person. For example, my kids for Christmas, they had 133 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 3: never seen Joe Burrow play, two of them and they 134 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 3: had a chance to go watch him and they saw 135 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 3: him play against the Arizona Cardinals and what looked like 136 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 3: the best offense in the NFL. So I think the 137 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 3: Bangles kind of have to do this organizationally just to 138 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 3: get some butts and seats for Sunday's game. But I 139 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 3: do think it'll play out almost like a preseason game. 140 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 3: Even going back to my conversation after the game with 141 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:52,799 Speaker 3: de mar Chase, if you saw it, we were talking 142 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 3: about his numbers and his outside chance to break his 143 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 3: own franchise records for catches in the season. Right now, 144 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 3: he's at one seventeen, the records one twenty seven. And 145 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 3: this guy has had probably multiple games this year with 146 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 3: fifteen or more targets. When I say multiple, probably four 147 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 3: or five if you go back and look at the stats. 148 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 3: So certainly he can catch eleven passes in the game, 149 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 3: but he shot it down immediately like I'm not getting that, 150 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 3: and I kind of thought, in the back of my head, Okay, 151 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 3: he knows something we don't know about how it's going 152 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 3: to play Sunday against the Browns. So yeah, I'm okay 153 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 3: with the Bengals treating this like a preseason game of 154 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 3: playing Joe Burrow for a quarter maybe two, Jamar Chase 155 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 3: for a quarter maybe two, and then putting those guys 156 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 3: on ice for the offseason. 157 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 2: Offensively, we know the weapons at the disposal of Joe Burrow. 158 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 2: How much do you think Cody Ford plays into the 159 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 2: plans in the future at maybe wide receiver number three? 160 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 3: How fun was that? How fun has this been? And 161 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 3: it's a cool thing because and I've had this discussion 162 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 3: a few times on our Sunday Night Bengals show about 163 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 3: watching this team at the end of the season. If 164 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 3: this is your favorite team, whatever your favorite team is, 165 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 3: when they're in the situation where they're playing games that 166 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 3: don't have any playoff meaning attached, it can be one 167 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 3: of two things. Right, you can sit back and be 168 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 3: entertained and enjoy watching your team play, or you can 169 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 3: be frustrated at heck, wondering what if and wondering why 170 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 3: now and where was this, and I think that's a 171 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 3: hard thing too. And I can't tell Bengals fans how 172 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 3: to fan and how to watch the game and how 173 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 3: to either enjoy it or be frustrated by it. But 174 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,440 Speaker 3: I will say this about the offense and the way 175 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 3: it's looked the last couple of weeks. We all know 176 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 3: what it looks like when Joe, Jamar and t is 177 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 3: going the way they're going right now. And these are 178 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,359 Speaker 3: the results, and certainly the fact that Miami and Arizona 179 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,959 Speaker 3: look disinterested helped the Bengals put up the numbers they did, 180 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 3: but to win back to back games by twenty plus 181 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 3: points for the first time since the Super Bowl season, 182 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,319 Speaker 3: and then the first time since before that was the 183 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:03,680 Speaker 3: twenty fifteen season, which I think a lot of us 184 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 3: would argue is a Marvin's best team and be probably 185 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 3: the second best team that this franchise has had in 186 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 3: the last twenty five years. So when they're playing at 187 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 3: the level of the twenty fifteen team and the twenty 188 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 3: twenty one team, it can be frustrating. It can be 189 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 3: a what could have been, or it can be very 190 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 3: realistic what this still might be. Once the Bengals tried 191 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 3: to get it figured out again this coming offseason. They 192 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 3: tried last offseason. It didn't work defensively. We've seen some 193 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 3: growth defensively through the year, but it's still there, right, 194 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,200 Speaker 3: It's still in there with this team that they can 195 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 3: perform at this level. They're not far off. And when 196 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 3: I asked Zach Taylor about this yesterday, I said, what's 197 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 3: the one message do you want to give to fans 198 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 3: about twenty twenty six after seeing the way it's played 199 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 3: out the last couple of weeks. He said three words, 200 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 3: We'll be back. It will be back means they'll be 201 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,439 Speaker 3: back in the playoffs. They'll be back playing for big games, 202 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 3: trying to win playoff games, trying to win championships. The 203 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 3: long road to go. But I do think, and again 204 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 3: I won't tell fans how to fan, not to be 205 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 3: frustrated by what they're seeing, but also enjoy what you're watching. 206 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 3: I think it's okay to drink a little bit of 207 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 3: the kool aid and see what it's still very realistically 208 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 3: can be with these three being the core of a 209 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 3: team going forward. 210 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,199 Speaker 4: We've talked a lot about the offensive line. One of 211 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 4: the names that stands out to me is Dalton Reisner. 212 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 4: What's the vibe that you get internally about the way 213 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 4: that maybe they feel internally I should say about Dalton 214 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 4: Reisner and potentially bringing him back this offseason. 215 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 3: Well, I know he wants to come back. He has 216 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 3: said that publicly multiple times that he really likes the 217 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 3: fit Yere loves playing with Joe Burrow, likes playing with 218 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 3: this offensive line, and it seems to be he's a 219 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 3: bit of kind of the glue that finally put this 220 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 3: whole thing together. Once he got his feet wet and 221 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 3: his feet under him and they started playing as a 222 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 3: cohesive unit. They've been very good the second half of 223 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 3: the year. Joe Burrow has said it, that Taylor has 224 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,840 Speaker 3: said it. This is the best the offensive line has 225 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 3: played over a chunk of time in their time here 226 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,319 Speaker 3: in Cincinnati. So I wouldn't mess with a good thing 227 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 3: and try to replace him with anybody else. I can't 228 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:17,959 Speaker 3: speak for the Bengals organization, but I don't know how 229 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 3: you could look at it what they have right now 230 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 3: and not want to run it back and bring him 231 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 3: back and have him be part of this offensive line. 232 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 3: Because what they're doing in the passing game, what they're 233 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 3: doing in the run game right now, I think is 234 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 3: proof that this can be. And I would even argue 235 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 3: if you go into some of the analytical stats that 236 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 3: this is the best offense in the world when they're healthy, 237 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 3: and they've been healthy the last two weeks. And I 238 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 3: know at Miami and I know it's the Arizona but 239 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 3: even going back to Buffalo as well, the way they 240 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 3: looked on the road in the snow against Buffalo, this 241 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 3: is the best offense in the world. And if you 242 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 3: can have continuity coming back in twenty twenty six from 243 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 3: two thousand in twenty five, what are the big questions 244 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 3: we always ask right is fix the defense, fix the 245 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 3: offensive line. The offensive line is healthy. It's in a 246 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 3: great space right now. So what it takes is bringing 247 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 3: him back. Do it bring him back, continue the continuity 248 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 3: going forward and protect Joe Burrow the best you can 249 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 3: going forward with this offensive line. They have to feel 250 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 3: comfortable and I sure hope they have to feel like 251 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 3: they have to bring Dalton Reisner back because it feels 252 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 3: like he's been the final piece to this offensive line 253 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 3: starting to play the kind of football they have to play. 254 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 2: What do you make We mentioned so much about Higgins 255 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 2: and or t Higgins and Jamar Chase and Joe Burrow. 256 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 2: Chase Brown's fifty three yards away from a thousand yard 257 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:43,439 Speaker 2: rushing season. With a huge game, he could reach over 258 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 2: fifteen hundred total yards on the season. Talk about his development, 259 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:53,079 Speaker 2: as we often talk about Duke Tobin's draft classes. You 260 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 2: look at where they got him in the twenty twenty 261 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 2: three draft. Is he a guy you're highlighting maybe earlier 262 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 2: than the contract will be up to maybe try to 263 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 2: link in long term and be a part of this 264 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:07,080 Speaker 2: going forward. I know it's usually a little bit dicey 265 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 2: with running backs and how you handle those contracts, but 266 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 2: with what you've seen from Chase Brown, is he a guy? 267 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 2: Maybe you start the conversation early on getting an extension done. 268 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 3: So he is fifty plus yards away from one thousand 269 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 3: rushing and then eighty one away from five hundred receiving. 270 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 3: I know that would be a monster game. That would 271 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 3: be a Christian mccafss type game to become the first 272 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 3: Bengals player with a thousand yards rushing and five hundred receiving. 273 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 3: Unless I'm wrong. I went back and looked at this 274 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 3: the other night. No Bengal has gone one thousand, five 275 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 3: hundred rushing and receiving since James Brooks in nineteen eighty six. 276 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,319 Speaker 3: So even if he doesn't get there, that's the kind 277 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 3: of conversation he's in right now for the kind of 278 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 3: year he's had for the Bengals. And if you look 279 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 3: at the numbers, when he's with Joe Burrow and without 280 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:01,560 Speaker 3: Joe Burrow, he preperforms like a top seven running back, 281 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 3: maybe even higher when Joe Burrow's in there, and then 282 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:06,839 Speaker 3: when Joe Burrow wasn't, his numbers were down. I think 283 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 3: the biggest key for Chase Brown and what's unlocked his 284 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 3: confidence and unlocked his all around game is getting him 285 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 3: the ball and checkdowns not necessarily in the middle of 286 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 3: the field, but more often to the flat, giving him 287 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 3: a chance to put a foot in the ground, make 288 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 3: a guy miss, and make some plays. The Bengals did 289 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 3: that Sunday twice where they weaponized a check down with 290 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 3: Chase Brown, and it made a huge difference for this team. 291 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 3: And I think that's what you're seeing. You're seeing the 292 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 3: confidence of him putting the foot in the ground and 293 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 3: accelerating on one cut and becoming just an awesome running 294 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,920 Speaker 3: back this year. I think his performance here the second 295 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 3: half of the season has elevated him into the conversation 296 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 3: of what I think will be one of the more 297 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 3: fascinating debates for Bengals front office members and also Bengals 298 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 3: fans and shows like this of deciding what to do 299 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 3: with Chase Brown in a second contract, because after they 300 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 3: gave Joe Mixon the money for a second contract, I 301 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 3: think we all said, Okay, that'll be the last time 302 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 3: the Bengals do that. 303 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 5: Right. 304 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 3: They'll they'll draft, we'll get the four years, they'll move on, 305 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 3: they'll bring in a rookie, they'll plug and play. And 306 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 3: maybe that's still the plan, and that's fine. But Chase 307 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 3: Brown's a pretty special dude, and what he's done the 308 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 3: last two years isn't just produced. His availability has been remarkable. 309 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 3: For as many times as he's got the ball for 310 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 3: his size, the guy plays every Sunday, he doesn't get hurt, 311 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 3: he produces, and he's now put himself in the conversation 312 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 3: of do the Bengals look at a second contract for 313 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 3: Chase Brown? One that I would have said no before, 314 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 3: but now I say maybe so. And I think that also, 315 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 3: guys opens up the conversation up going back to what 316 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 3: Joe Burrow talked about when he said they need to 317 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 3: get more creative in roster building. And maybe that's starting 318 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 3: to look at guys like Chase Brown and a Dack 319 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 3: and a DJ Turner who's still have a year left 320 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 3: here in Cincinnati on a contract and start getting ahead 321 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 3: of it, get ahead of it and lock these guys 322 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 3: up that look, they're not the big three, they're not 323 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 3: the foundational pieces, but their next tier guys that help 324 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 3: you win games and help you go to playoff games 325 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 3: and help you win championships are the guys that you 326 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,720 Speaker 3: build around your big three, and guys like Dax Hill 327 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 3: and DJ Turner and maybe a Chase Brown or guys 328 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 3: that you reward early before they price themselves out of 329 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 3: Cincinnati before the negotiations start to turn into something ugly. 330 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 3: And I think that might be a little bit of 331 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 3: what Joe Burrow might be hinting at, that it's not 332 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 3: just draft and develop, it's reward early and then dive 333 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 3: into free agency and build a roster that way. So 334 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 3: it's gonna be fascinating trying to figure out what the 335 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 3: Bangers are going to do with Chase Brown because the 336 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 3: way he fits and the way he's played, I think 337 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 3: he has made himself a candidate to possibly getting paid 338 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 3: on a second time contract with the Bengals. 339 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 2: How about Geno Stone? Are we going to talk ourselves 340 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 2: into Geno Stone coming back? Because I heard out Golden 341 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 2: Boy talk about how much he likes and how much 342 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 2: he's improving. Surely that's coach speak. Joe. 343 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:13,160 Speaker 6: Yes. 344 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 3: I was in the room yesterday when he was talking 345 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 3: about that, and I said, boy, God, bless the poor 346 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,679 Speaker 3: person in this room, because there's about twelve people in 347 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 3: the media in the rooms taking notes and penning tweets. 348 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,119 Speaker 3: I said, who's going to be the poor soul that 349 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 3: puts that out there and says rip ned mentioned for 350 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 3: about a week. I said, I'm not touching that. No, 351 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 3: I want no piece of that. Yeah, Genostone had to go. 352 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 3: And I think it's been important because we've talked, you know, 353 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 3: through seventeen weeks about about the Bengals defense and about 354 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 3: what guys have proven they should be relied upon as 355 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:53,160 Speaker 3: contributors going forward. And I think it's just as important 356 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,640 Speaker 3: to find the guys that you need to weed out 357 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 3: and guys that you can't rely on going forward. And 358 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,880 Speaker 3: I think we here today and look at guys under 359 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 3: contract for next year and picked out players that we 360 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 3: think should be back as contributors slash starters for the Bengals. 361 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 3: I think there's a solid six. There's a solid six 362 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 3: on defense, and the others are all up for grabs. 363 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:22,880 Speaker 3: Starting with number twenty two, Geno Stone has to go. 364 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 3: There has to be a difference, There has to be 365 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 3: a change. And yes, that was even if it's not 366 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 3: coach speaking, Genostone is helping with communication and getting guys 367 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 3: lined up. God love you, great job. But when the 368 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 3: ball snap, it's not good enough. And that's where games 369 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 3: are one that four to six seconds right in his 370 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 3: four to six seconds has not been good enough. And 371 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 3: we all saw it Sunday when he completely whipped on 372 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 3: a wide receiver running down the sideline and it ended 373 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,119 Speaker 3: up in a touchdown. Yeah, that's gotta be the first 374 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:57,879 Speaker 3: person in the first position. That is addressed once the 375 00:18:57,920 --> 00:18:59,640 Speaker 3: Bengals season is over, how. 376 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,479 Speaker 2: Much has Miles Murphy helped not only his case, but 377 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 2: maybe the view of this defense going forward. It's obvious 378 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 2: a defense that needs to add starters in my opinion 379 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 2: every level. But the consistent play of Miles Murphy has 380 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:15,640 Speaker 2: to be something that as seen as an extreme positive 381 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:16,719 Speaker 2: down the stretch of this season. 382 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 3: There's no question he can be counted on as a contributor. Now, 383 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 3: I don't think he can count on him as your 384 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 3: number one defensive end. I think he'd be slots in 385 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,879 Speaker 3: as your number two guy, you're in a good position. 386 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:31,440 Speaker 3: I think if you slot him in as your number 387 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 3: three guy, you're in a great position. Spotting him in 388 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 3: his number three would mean that Shamar Stewart takes a 389 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,160 Speaker 3: big leap to number two and the angles go out 390 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 3: and find a number one, probably not Trey Henderson, but 391 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 3: probably find someone else to play that position. But even 392 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,479 Speaker 3: if you had to go Shamar Stewart and Miles Murphy 393 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 3: as your defensive ends, it's not the worst thing in 394 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 3: the world. It's not ideal. And that's a credit to 395 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 3: Miles Murphy that the light bulb has finally gone on 396 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,640 Speaker 3: some what you know. We had Andrea Yoshibots on our 397 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 3: Live Bengal show last night and we did kind of 398 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 3: the end of the year superlatives and one of the 399 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:11,200 Speaker 3: questions I asked was, what player, Andre do you think 400 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 3: who is in a star right now is most likely 401 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 3: to become a star, and he said immediately, Miles Murphy, 402 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 3: he said, he's got every tool he pops in practice, 403 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 3: and the way other guys talk about him in the 404 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 3: locker room and in the coach's meeting rooms. He feels 405 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 3: like he's got a shot here to really pop in 406 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 3: year four next year after really starting to show some 407 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 3: flashes in year three. I think at the beginning of 408 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 3: the year, the jury was kind of out right. We 409 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 3: didn't know about this guy, and I'm sure some people 410 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 3: had already convicted him of being a bust. And I 411 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 3: think I might have been one of those guys. I'll 412 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 3: rap my head and say, I don't think Miles Murphy 413 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:52,439 Speaker 3: has it. I don't know if he can be a contributor, 414 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:54,679 Speaker 3: but he has proven a lot of people wrong in 415 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 3: this year, and I think he's a guy you can 416 00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:00,159 Speaker 3: rely on to me as one of the six players 417 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 3: you can bring back defensively next year and feel really 418 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,439 Speaker 3: comfortable with if he's a starter on this defense. And 419 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 3: that's a credit to him. Some guys take longer to 420 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 3: develop for whatever reason, but he finally reached that point 421 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 3: this year where he's making plays and the Bengals can 422 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 3: count on him. I think in twenty twenty six. 423 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 2: The last question I have on the Bengals is that 424 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 2: development word, because this isn't development time for this organization. 425 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow's going to be thirty next year. We've talked 426 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 2: about the psychology side of Joe Burrow's actions a couple 427 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 2: of weeks ago. I don't feel like you've got time 428 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 2: to just wait slowly for guys on the defensive side 429 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:42,440 Speaker 2: of the ball to develop. So that would lead me 430 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 2: to the question of as this season comes to a 431 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,400 Speaker 2: close and you look to next year, what is your 432 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 2: initial thoughts on what you're doing in the linebacker room. 433 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 3: Well, I think they have developed some guys, and I 434 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 3: think that's what's been good about this year. I think 435 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,400 Speaker 3: the DJ Turner and Dak Hill's story has been great 436 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 3: for this defense in twenty twenty five, that those guys 437 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 3: have given a chance to go out and prove who 438 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 3: they are. And so I think even though this year 439 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 3: feels like a drop back fifteen yards in punt, there 440 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 3: are some good stories on defense At linebacker. I'm counting 441 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 3: one of the two rookies as a guy that you 442 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 3: can rely on for next year. I think Demetrius Knight 443 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 3: is a guy that you bring back in year two 444 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 3: with the idea that he's a starter. I do think 445 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 3: you have to go out into free agency and I think, 446 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 3: along with Ginostone at safety, finding a free agent difference 447 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 3: maker that steps in, a guy who has proven he 448 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 3: can play on Sundays, a guy who can make plays 449 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:46,199 Speaker 3: and can elevated defense immediately has to be a priority 450 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 3: for this team. I don't think it can be draft 451 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 3: another guy and see if you can put another rookie 452 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 3: linebacker next to Demetrius Knight and see if he can 453 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:55,919 Speaker 3: be a playmaker. I think you have to go out 454 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 3: in free agency this offseason with the idea in mind 455 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 3: that Okay, look, the defense is great, the offensive continuity 456 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 3: is going to be fine. Maybe we can draft the safety, 457 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,959 Speaker 3: but I think you have to circle linebacker as a 458 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 3: free agent of someone who's proven it that they can 459 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,479 Speaker 3: play at this level and be a difference maker. It's 460 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 3: a slot next to Demetrius Night. I think that would 461 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 3: solve a lot of problems for the Bengals in their 462 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 3: front seven if they just put someone there who is capable, 463 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,439 Speaker 3: who is confident, who is confident that he can go 464 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,159 Speaker 3: out there and be that kind of a player. I 465 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:29,880 Speaker 3: don't think that's the draft pick. I think that's one 466 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 3: that has to be addressed with a ready made starter 467 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 3: and free agency. 468 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 2: That is Joe Danoman Fox nineteen. I know you guys 469 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,560 Speaker 2: had the last show at the Levey last night with 470 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 2: Andre Yoshi Vash. What's coming up next at Fox nineteen 471 00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 2: and when do you leave for Memphis? Joe tomorrow? 472 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:49,119 Speaker 7: No, get him. 473 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 2: I don't know if I could just catch a ride 474 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 2: with you or what the. 475 00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 4: Plan was the next big thing? 476 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 3: You guys believe this already.

I got these right? 524 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:34,159 Speaker 2: Yep, Tony and Austin, Hi ray from CLEA. I have 525 00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:36,359 Speaker 2: a question about Miles Murphy. 526 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:40,200 Speaker 9: Everybody's saying now that the light's finally gone on, period. 527 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:41,639 Speaker 2: I'm really confused. 528 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 9: How can a guy be around for three years and 529 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 9: then Austin a light goes on and now he's a 530 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:48,400 Speaker 9: force to be. 531 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 2: Reckoned with, period. I just don't get that. How can 532 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 2: that happen? 533 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,239 Speaker 9: I just figured he just wasn't that good and they 534 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 9: were just afraid to face up to it. How can 535 00:26:57,760 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 9: he all of a sudden be good? 536 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:05,640 Speaker 2: Sometimes it takes more time. It's a new defensive coordinator. Yes, 537 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 2: new scheme, new systems. Sometimes it just takes longer, you know. There, 538 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 2: I better late than never. 539 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,439 Speaker 4: For multiple years, thought that the Bengals should have fired 540 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,280 Speaker 4: Mary and Hart Hobby their defensive line coach, and they 541 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 4: finally did, and they hired Jerry Montgomery. I think we've 542 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 4: seen some development from some of those guys on the 543 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 4: defensive line, especially Miles Murphy. So I think when you 544 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 4: have a different position, coach, a different style of defense, 545 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 4: maybe it's just a better fit for him. And more 546 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 4: than anything, reps reps, reps, reps, reps. 547 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 2: And I do think there is something there along the 548 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 2: idea of getting more consistent reps and knowing that your 549 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,160 Speaker 2: reps aren't limited period. You get all the practice reps, 550 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 2: you get all the game reps. Exclamation points exclamation point yeah, and. 551 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,880 Speaker 5: I actually you got a happy New year. Oh as 552 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 5: far as the Bearcats, I'll tell you if they really 553 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,639 Speaker 5: turn around, I would say the clip in the second 554 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,360 Speaker 5: half of the Clemson game, I saw the. 555 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 2: Old bear cast. 556 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:06,679 Speaker 5: Now they were diving for a ball, they were they 557 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 5: were playing defense, they were being tough on an other team. 558 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 5: So I think that one. 559 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 2: You ain't kidding. I mean you since that second half 560 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 2: of Clemson and last night this team's on a heater. 561 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:21,160 Speaker 3: Good afternoon, gentlemen. 562 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 10: Can you possibly settle a question that a friend and 563 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 10: I are having a long discussion about the announcement today 564 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 10: by the Hall of Fame about the fifteen finalists. Would 565 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:36,199 Speaker 10: that be news that Willie Anderson's on that list? Or 566 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 10: was I already a foe gone conclusion that he was 567 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 10: going to be on the list and the Hall of 568 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 10: Fame is just making news. 569 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 3: I just trying to clear it up. 570 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 4: Oh, they do this every year. They announced it in phases. 571 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 4: They go from like semi finalists to finalists, and so 572 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 4: the last announcement was the semi finalists and this announcement. 573 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 2: Is the final I think it was a huge surprise. 574 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's kind of the same schedule every single year. Now. 575 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 4: You may have heard earlier. 576 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 2: That I think he said, Like as far as it 577 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 2: being Willie Anderson, like him making it to the finals, 578 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 2: is that a surprise to you? 579 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 3: No? 580 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 2: I don't think so either. 581 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 4: No. I mean, I don't think it's ever a foregone 582 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 4: conclusion that people are going to make the list. But like, 583 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 4: if you think of this time a year ago, December 584 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 4: twenty eighth, a year ago, they announced the finalists and 585 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 4: he was on that list. So it's just just the 586 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 4: same time every year. But earlier this year they announced 587 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 4: the finalists for the Senior Committee, which included Ken Anderson, 588 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 4: Bill Belichick, Robert Kraft, those type of guess. 589 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 9: All I said was that the redacted blackdown portions of 590 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 9: the Epstein files. 591 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 4: I'm not gonna do it. 592 00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 11: Hi, Can you guys talk about the Bengals draft positioning 593 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 11: implications based on the outcomes of the games this weekend 594 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 11: sometime today? 595 00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 2: Hopefully that's a lot. 596 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 4: It's not that much.

This time 696 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 18: next year we'll be talking about the Bengals battling for 697 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:07,759 Speaker 18: the one seed and hopefully f seed will be in 698 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:11,080 Speaker 18: the MLS Cup Final, and. 699 00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:11,959 Speaker 2: That would be fun. 700 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 4: If I know anything about New Year's Eve, I know 701 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:18,480 Speaker 4: Marcus gonna be dumping them, Oh, dumping them. 702 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,760 Speaker 19: My next performance will be Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer 703 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:36,720 Speaker 19: performed in the Chowed Brindle Key. 704 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 20: Hey, this is Toddham Shivy. If I think the Bengals 705 00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:45,359 Speaker 20: have a safety on. 706 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:47,440 Speaker 2: The roster already, Yes, Gino stunt. 707 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:49,720 Speaker 20: I think they should give it the Cam Taylor Brett. 708 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:53,880 Speaker 20: Give him a go. Yeah, there'll be some learning curve 709 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:57,160 Speaker 20: and stuff involved, but he's aggressive, he's a ball hawk, 710 00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 20: can cover tight ends, no problem. I thought what you 711 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,320 Speaker 20: guys thought about that. Let me know. 712 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:04,719 Speaker 2: I don't think. I don't think that they're in a 713 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 2: mode that they can roll some mountain see what happens. 714 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 2: I don't think they have time for that. I think 715 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:10,960 Speaker 2: they've got to get proven commodities. 716 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:12,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think because they did too much of that 717 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,400 Speaker 4: this year and just to see if guys can develop. 718 00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:19,279 Speaker 4: I can understand that thought process, and the Bengals tried 719 00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 4: to do that with Dax Hill when they drafted him. 720 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 4: I don't know that Cam Taylor Britt has the football 721 00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:28,440 Speaker 4: IQ to play that position. That that would be my 722 00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:33,840 Speaker 4: worry with Cam. You're talking about Geno Stone, like, getting 723 00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:35,879 Speaker 4: guys in the right position in the right defense. That's 724 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:39,719 Speaker 4: the freaking bare minimum for a safety, like That's what 725 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:42,719 Speaker 4: Al Golden said yesterday. Gino does the bare minimum, yes 726 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 4: and nice. Then when the ball is snapped, he's awful. 727 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 4: And so if you can't even do the bare minimum, 728 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:51,960 Speaker 4: which is part of the reason why Geno or why 729 00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 4: Von Bell played so much last year. So he got 730 00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:56,319 Speaker 4: them into the right defense, but then he couldn't play 731 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,280 Speaker 4: after the snap, similar situation. 732 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 6: No, I think there's no way you didn't consider bringing 733 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,959 Speaker 6: Troy Henderson back. I think something the other day, something 734 00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 6: about that you don't want to he got back. Let 735 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,320 Speaker 6: him go, and I'll tell you what, I wouldn't be 736 00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 6: averse to seeing a Logan Wilson come back on a 737 00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:17,440 Speaker 6: team friendly league minimum guy, probably ain't going nowhere else. 738 00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:19,360 Speaker 2: Let him come by be a leader. 739 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 6: I don't think him fifteen stats, the guy staff, the 740 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 6: game guy. 741 00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:25,920 Speaker 2: I don't think that's gonna happen. 742 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 4: I don't think so. 743 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:32,680 Speaker 21: Hello, this is former President Ronald Reagularid. It's been a 744 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:35,400 Speaker 21: wonderful year everyone. I hope everyone has a safe and 745 00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 21: happy New Year. Exclamation point. Anyone got any exciting plans? 746 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 21: Question mark, have a great one and looking forward to 747 00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:45,800 Speaker 21: seeing everyone in twenty twenty six. Period. 748 00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:49,840 Speaker 7: Oh whoa, whoa. 749 00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 4: What's really funny is like I get it gives me 750 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:58,640 Speaker 4: a preview of like what everyone says, and it didn't 751 00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:01,960 Speaker 4: even register. Hear him saying that like it did, put 752 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:10,279 Speaker 4: a period in question market in the actual transcription. It's 753 00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 4: nice to hear from Nancy today. 754 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,319 Speaker 2: Yep, yeah, all right, we're doing all right. We'll take 755 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:22,120 Speaker 2: a break and by request, by request, some playoff draft scenarios. 756 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:27,160 Speaker 2: We're not playoffs in n scenarios in Week eighteen. That 757 00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:30,200 Speaker 2: comes up next on Football in NATI ESPN fifteen thirty, 758 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 2: Cincinnati Sports Station. 759 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 1: Fall in the NATI, brought to you by butt Light 760 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:41,400 Speaker 1: on ESPN fifteen thirty, the official home of the Cincinnati Bengals. 761 00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,040 Speaker 2: All right, that sound you heard right there means it's 762 00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 2: time for Football in the NATI on ESPN fifteen thirty, 763 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,759 Speaker 2: Cincinnati Sports Station. We do have more football to talk about. 764 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 2: In the third hour, we'll look a little bit more 765 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:55,040 Speaker 2: in depth at the twenty twenty three draft class. We'll 766 00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:58,480 Speaker 2: talk UC's win last night over Lipscomb, and you'll hear 767 00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:02,160 Speaker 2: from West Miller and some more phone calls five, one, three, seven, four, nine, 768 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 2: fifteen thirty. We were asked in one of our talkbacks Austin, 769 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:10,800 Speaker 2: what does the Week eighteen slate mean for possible draft 770 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 2: scenarios for the Cincinnati Bengals. 771 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:15,520 Speaker 4: Well as of right now, it's on. The Bengals are 772 00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 4: the tenth pick in the twenty twenty six NFL Draft. 773 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:25,400 Speaker 4: They can pick between eight and twelve. They cannot pick 774 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 4: any higher than eighth. They cannot pick any lower than twelve. Okay, Now, 775 00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 4: the chances of them picking eighth are very very slim. 776 00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:37,240 Speaker 4: They would need New Orleans to beat Atlanta Kansas City 777 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:40,520 Speaker 4: to win. The Bengals would obviously need to lose and 778 00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 4: so on. Okay, but it is most likely that the 779 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:49,240 Speaker 4: Bengals pick I believe eleventh. They have about a forty 780 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:54,360 Speaker 4: six percent chance to pick eleventh in the draft. That's 781 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:58,000 Speaker 4: obviously assuming that they beat the Cleveland Browns and based 782 00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:00,759 Speaker 4: off the predictions of the other results. So it is 783 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:05,200 Speaker 4: a five percent chance to pick eighth. It is a 784 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 4: make sure I didn't lose my spot, fourteen percent chance 785 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 4: to pick ninth, fourteen percent chance to pick tenth, forty 786 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:17,520 Speaker 4: six percent chance to pick eleventh, and twenty one percent 787 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:19,520 Speaker 4: chance to pick twelfth. 788 00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:24,360 Speaker 2: Okay, for what it's worth. Field Yates' latest mock draft eighth. 789 00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:29,600 Speaker 2: He had Spencer Fanu going the tackle, dominant tackle from 790 00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:33,239 Speaker 2: Utah going number eight. He had Caleb Downs going number nine. 791 00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:38,800 Speaker 2: Ruben Bain junior going number ten, and then Mansour Delanne 792 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 2: cornerback from LSU was his eleventh draft pick. There you go, 793 00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:47,040 Speaker 2: so just kind of what the players. And again it 794 00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:50,480 Speaker 2: is December thirtieth, It is way too early for mock drafts. 795 00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 4: The teams around the Bengals seventh Washington, they're four and twelve. 796 00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 4: The Bengals are not going to pick ahead of them. 797 00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:01,759 Speaker 4: Eighth is New Orleans, ninth is Kansas City, tenth is Cincinnati. 798 00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:04,840 Speaker 4: They are all six and ten. Right behind the Bengals 799 00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:07,560 Speaker 4: at the eleventh pick. Right now are the Miami Dolphins 800 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,960 Speaker 4: at seven and nine, and then the twelfth pick belongs 801 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:13,719 Speaker 4: to the Rams by way of the Falcons, and the 802 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:16,160 Speaker 4: Falcons are at seven and nine, Tampa is at seven 803 00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:19,680 Speaker 4: and nine and so on. So I think the Bengals 804 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:23,040 Speaker 4: are more than likely stay put in that ten to 805 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:24,280 Speaker 4: eleven spot. 806 00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:28,799 Speaker 2: Some other noteworthy items today, we mentioned Stefan Diggs at 807 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 2: the top of the show is facing strangulation and assault charges. 808 00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:38,520 Speaker 2: Trayvon Diggs has been cut by the Dallas Cowboys today, 809 00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 2: not a good day for the Diggs family. No. Also 810 00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 2: AFC North News, it is being said right now that TJ. 811 00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 2: Watt quote could return and play in the AFC North 812 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,600 Speaker 2: title showdown on Sunday night, Mike Tomlin said he has 813 00:41:55,719 --> 00:42:01,319 Speaker 2: quote optimistic about his potential inclusion in this So there 814 00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 2: you have that as well. 815 00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:08,160 Speaker 4: Interesting TJ. Watt perhaps back looking at this, like the 816 00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 4: draft order, I think what's interesting again is that there's 817 00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:14,520 Speaker 4: like two quarterbacks that people feel like could go in 818 00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:20,160 Speaker 4: the first round. That's it, and that really makes the 819 00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:25,120 Speaker 4: top ten fascinating. Vegas, you can almost certainly you can 820 00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 4: almost fill out the card right now that they're going 821 00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:30,920 Speaker 4: to take Fernando Mendoza at number one. The Giants are 822 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:33,719 Speaker 4: they going to take a quarterback? The Jets? Would they 823 00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:37,040 Speaker 4: take Dante Moore out of Oregon? Would they feel good 824 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 4: about that? The Titans aren't going to pick a quarterback. 825 00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:43,000 Speaker 4: Arizona needs one, but he may not be available. Cleveland, 826 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:45,920 Speaker 4: I feel like it's a bad year to need a quarterback. 827 00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:46,000 Speaker 3: And it is. 828 00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:49,560 Speaker 4: It's a terrible one. And next year is a very 829 00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:53,560 Speaker 4: rich quarterback class. So Cleveland's interesting to me too, Like 830 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 4: have you seen enough from Chador to want to see more? 831 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:56,080 Speaker 2: Right? 832 00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:58,279 Speaker 4: And so I think some of these teams are going 833 00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:02,040 Speaker 4: to be thinking about next year's class of quarterbacks. And 834 00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 4: with that being said, does that mean that they're more 835 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 4: willing to trade up, which would be not good for 836 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:14,959 Speaker 4: the Bengals. Right if teams are willing, these teams right here, 837 00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:19,560 Speaker 4: you know, like Arizona, Cleveland, Tennessee, the Jets, the Giants. 838 00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:21,880 Speaker 4: The Giants, I think feel a little bit of pressure. 839 00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:25,719 Speaker 4: But those are teams that might miss out on Mendoza 840 00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:28,839 Speaker 4: and are thinking, Okay, well, we don't mind if we're 841 00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 4: back up here a year from now. I think the 842 00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:33,360 Speaker 4: Giants like dart though, I know, but like that's what 843 00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:36,000 Speaker 4: I'm saying. We don't mind if we're we don't need 844 00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:37,960 Speaker 4: a quarterback, or we don't mind if we're back up 845 00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:40,520 Speaker 4: here a year from now. We'll trade back. Yeah, Which 846 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:44,800 Speaker 4: means a team like the Rams could trade up, Detroit 847 00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 4: could trade up, Baltimore could trade up to get that 848 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,520 Speaker 4: missing piece that they feel like they need on their 849 00:43:50,560 --> 00:43:53,160 Speaker 4: offense or on their defense. And how that obviously could 850 00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:55,239 Speaker 4: take away from some of the players, like the best 851 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:57,479 Speaker 4: part about being a team like the Bengals and picking 852 00:43:57,560 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 4: in the top ten is the fact that you already 853 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:02,640 Speaker 4: have your quarterback. Unfortunately, this year, there aren't a bunch 854 00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:04,680 Speaker 4: of teams ahead of you that are gonna be drafting quarterbacks. 855 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:10,399 Speaker 2: Sure. ESPN dot COM's latest power rankings came out with 856 00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:15,200 Speaker 2: one thing learned from each team this season. They have 857 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 2: the Bengals twenty third in the week seventeen Power rankings, 858 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:21,360 Speaker 2: and it says, this what we learned this season, The 859 00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 2: young defenders are turning the corner. Ben Baby, Right, Cincinnati's 860 00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:28,040 Speaker 2: finally getting improved play from young players such as Miles 861 00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:30,879 Speaker 2: Murphy and DJ Turner. Murphy leads a team with five 862 00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:32,840 Speaker 2: and a half sacks and has earned praise from coaches 863 00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:35,799 Speaker 2: and players for a strong year. DJ Turner, a Pro 864 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:38,480 Speaker 2: Bowl Whethy resume is having his best season to date, 865 00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 2: notable for a defense that needs its former top one 866 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:44,680 Speaker 2: hundred draft picks to perform at a high level. Strong 867 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:48,200 Speaker 2: defense is crucial for the Bengals to reopen their hopes 868 00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:52,880 Speaker 2: of the championship window. That's from ESPN's Ben Baby. Do 869 00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:55,840 Speaker 2: you agree that the young defenders are turning the corner? 870 00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:57,759 Speaker 2: I think those two have. I'm gonna say outside of 871 00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:00,360 Speaker 2: those two, I don't think anybody else has. Make of 872 00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:03,000 Speaker 2: Osai I go side down the stretch, hurt himself by 873 00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:06,799 Speaker 2: It's not to his fault. It's the injury. Can you 874 00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:10,240 Speaker 2: pay Joseph Osai if you're the Bengals. 875 00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:13,080 Speaker 4: Well, I think on the open market he's looking at 876 00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:15,920 Speaker 4: fifteen million dollars. I wonder if he would sign another 877 00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,880 Speaker 4: one year deal around that, or maybe a ten to 878 00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:22,080 Speaker 4: twelve million dollar deal with incentives if he wanted to 879 00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:23,759 Speaker 4: come back. He did that this year, took I believe, 880 00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:26,319 Speaker 4: an eight million dollar deal to come back and try 881 00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:29,440 Speaker 4: to build on what he finished off last year. I 882 00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 4: think it's interesting is his agent is David Mulligeta, and 883 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:36,520 Speaker 4: the Bengals clearly have had issues negotiating with Mullageta in 884 00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:41,279 Speaker 4: the past. But I feel like there would be some 885 00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:44,759 Speaker 4: more interest in Osai this year than there has been 886 00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:48,359 Speaker 4: in years past. Yeah, but if the injury is significant, 887 00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:50,719 Speaker 4: or you know, if it's something that could drive that 888 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:52,439 Speaker 4: price down a little bit, I think the Bengals would 889 00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:54,160 Speaker 4: take a little bit more of a serious look at it. 890 00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:56,080 Speaker 4: I think they should be taking a serious look at it. 891 00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:58,520 Speaker 4: But you don't want to overpay, and Mulliget is going 892 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:01,279 Speaker 4: to try to get you to do that direct. We 893 00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:05,040 Speaker 4: will talk a little bit more. I will say about Osai. 894 00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:07,880 Speaker 4: I think Osai is great for the locker room. I 895 00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:10,359 Speaker 4: think the players in that locker room really like him. 896 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:13,120 Speaker 4: I think he lightens the mood a little bit. I 897 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:16,360 Speaker 4: think he's just one of those guys who gets along 898 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:18,720 Speaker 4: with everybody. I just don't think there is a value 899 00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:18,920 Speaker 4: in that. 900 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:21,440 Speaker 2: I don't know if you came into this year saying, Okay, 901 00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 2: here's a prove it deal for Joseph Osai, what did 902 00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:26,200 Speaker 2: he prove to you this year? 903 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:28,759 Speaker 4: Yeah, previous, the same player he was last year. I 904 00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:31,359 Speaker 4: don't think there's there's much more with that. So let's 905 00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:33,640 Speaker 4: carry over this conversation. We'll relate it to the twenty 906 00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:37,239 Speaker 4: twenty three draft class with some upcoming decisions and uh, 907 00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:41,239 Speaker 4: some free agent primer for the Cincinnati Bengals.
