Give us a little bit of 132 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: a breakdown if you don't mind, on that play man. 133 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 4: We were kind of been practicing that play for for 134 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,039 Speaker 4: a couple of weeks. But you know, just saw the 135 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 4: saw the safety run out into the flight to get 136 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 4: r J. And you know, I went and hooked up, 137 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 4: and I saw the backer in the corner, sat there 138 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 4: but low deliver a strike, perfect, perfect ball, low and 139 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 4: away from from the defenders, and all I really had 140 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 4: to do was catch it, you know what I mean? So, uh, 141 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 4: he he was out there just dice dicing them up 142 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 4: for real. 143 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:55,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt. 144 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 1: And that that play specifically, it's sort of another indication 145 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: of how well everybody has to do their job for 146 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 1: it to work. And maybe sometimes people don't think about 147 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: it in terms of that of Hey, in any given play, 148 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:10,599 Speaker 1: maybe it's one guy doing something it's like and they 149 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,600 Speaker 1: actually that only works because you said RJ was able 150 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: to pull away some of the intention on you. 151 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 4: I mean it was RJ. It was Court, you know 152 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 4: what I mean. Court had to at the same time 153 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 4: was to rub kind of on the linebacker to kind 154 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 4: of keep him from running, you know what I mean, 155 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 4: and interfering with that pas And then of course the 156 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 4: old line got to protect. So all eleven got to 157 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 4: do a job in order for us to execute. 158 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 1: You know, last couple here for you, I always appreciate 159 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 1: the time you decided to take a big drink of water. 160 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 2: That's the answer stuff. 161 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 3: They took a big double of water the air and 162 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 3: then trying to choke it down for asking the question, Hey, 163 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 3: I don't think you saw the news today.

I'll probably get 175 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 4: some flag for that, but I mean, if they're bringing 176 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 4: them in, Uh, if they're bringing them in, I know 177 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 4: he's the right person for the job and he would 178 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 4: he would definitely get it done. 179 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: The last one for me, the Jacksonville Jaguars or defense. 180 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 2: Boy, they are they're opportunistic, right did. 181 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 1: They get a lot of takeaways, and they're very good 182 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: against the runs. So what are some things that you've 183 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: noticed also about this Jags defense this weekend? 184 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 4: This is some tough players. They fly around. You know, 185 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 4: we just got to be on our a game and 186 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 4: make sure we're able. We're out there, we know our place, 187 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 4: so we can go out there and execute to our 188 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 4: best of our ability. And I feel like if we 189 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 4: go out there and execute, we got a good chance 190 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 4: to go out there and get a. 191 00:07:58,120 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 2: Dub very good. 192 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 1: Well, little Jordan, It's been a lot of fun having 193 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: you back here in town. Certainly a big contributor there 194 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: on the offensive side of the ball. Best of luck 195 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: not only on Sunday but the rest of the season. Man, 196 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: thank you, I appreciate you. I appreciate you. 197 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 3: Little Jordan Humphrey just like the text line says, oh, 198 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 3: more like Big Jordan Humphrey. 199 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: He plays like it right. And of course that's even 200 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 1: Tony Romo made that crack like he's played like Big 201 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 1: Jordan's you know, Lobby, it's right there, It's it's really right, 202 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 1: the same way Tony called him Big Wayen after the 203 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 1: You know, he's kind of like Michael Bandy right in 204 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 1: a little bit of like an unsung hero of the team, 205 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: and you kind of need those guys. 206 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 2: Now. 207 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: Michael Bandy's a little bit different because he's a he's 208 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: a Pea squad guy for. 209 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 2: The most part. Well and band he's a Joe Lombardi guy. 210 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 2: Dating back to their time with the Chargers together. 211 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 3: You know, Little Jordan's actually got some run with the 212 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:48,680 Speaker 3: with the Broncos where Bandy got you know, that was 213 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 3: the one play. 214 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 1: Well, I guess I mean in the sense of when 215 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: you think about the stars of a team, his name 216 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 1: won't show up pretty far. 217 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 2: Now, I'm saying, like, locally we know about him. 218 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: If you get into, like, hey, let me ask somebody 219 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: nationally about the Broncos. 220 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 2: His name might not come up. But he plays an 221 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 2: integral role into what they do. 222 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 3: Absolutely, I would say that little Jordan Humphrey has almost 223 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 3: almost that Kendall Hinton level of full hero on the team. 224 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 3: Maybe you didn't, you know, obviously start at quarterback and 225 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 3: that kind of thing, but you know, little Jordan's had 226 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 3: some places at one play he had where he broke 227 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 3: all the tackles, and you know, I mean there's there's 228 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:26,439 Speaker 3: been a few of those over the years, and I 229 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 3: think he's kind of got a folklore. You know, it's 230 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 3: kind of thing with him. But he's like and again, 231 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 3: I know, I term he is the imp of that. 232 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:38,719 Speaker 1: It's like I'm saying it, but you want to say 233 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 1: it different. This is like classics classic sports talk radio here. Yeah, 234 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: I'm like you Mike or the mad Dog I hate, 235 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I don't even that's why I work. 236 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, But but that's. 237 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: We're basically saying the same thing. I just I feel 238 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: like you want to appreciate those players. And it's been 239 00:09:56,559 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: fun listening to the discussion of Michael Bandy. For example, 240 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 1: from sewn yesterday Bo Courtland, there was and you saw 241 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 1: it after the touchdown, there was a celebration by the 242 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 1: entire like the offense surrounded that guy, they enveloped him, 243 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 1: they made sure he got that ball because he was 244 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: obviously focused on scoring the touchdown. And then we found 245 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: out also yesterday that it was actually a Marvin Mims play. 246 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 1: It was designed for Marvin Mimms and he just wasn't 247 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: able to go on that specific play. It's Michael Bandy, 248 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 1: who is I guess, the closest comp to Marvin Mims 249 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,079 Speaker 1: on the team. He gets out there and it's a 250 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 1: perfect mesh call for him and everything designed and that's 251 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 1: exactly the same thing with will Jordan Humphrey's touchdown. 252 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 2: Like the design of these plays. 253 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: Like it's very specific, but everybody has to do their 254 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 1: job or else it all kind of falls apart. If somebody, 255 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: if even one link in that chain is not doing 256 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 1: what they're supposed to do, then you don't get the 257 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,199 Speaker 1: touchdown to Michael Bandy. You don't get the touchdown to 258 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: Litt Jordan Humphrey. Now there are other plays where it's 259 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: just an extraordinary play, like you go up for a 260 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 1: fifty to fifty wall and you get it, and that's 261 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:00,199 Speaker 1: just what it is, right, I mean, they said it's 262 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 1: a go ball down the sideline. Okay, Well you didn't 263 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:03,959 Speaker 1: need I mean, I'm not saying you didn't need eleven guys, 264 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 1: cause you certainly need your blockers so the quarterback can 265 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 1: throw it. Point of it is is maybe the receiver 266 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: on the back side of the play, maybe he didn't 267 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 1: have to be perfect. But these these two plays specifically, 268 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 1: you needed all of them. You needed all of them 269 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: doing exactly what they did to execute. 270 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 3: But most of the time you will, I mean most 271 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,440 Speaker 3: of the time you will need that. A lot of 272 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 3: what a lot of what offenses do is you're trying, 273 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 3: you know, you got two concepts. You're working, you know, 274 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 3: trying to try to beat certain things, and you know 275 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 3: you need most of that to where you're all in 276 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 3: the defense, make some breakdown somewhere in that and then 277 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 3: you could exploit that and make your play. 278 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 2: That's that's your solution and all that kind of stuff. 279 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 3: So yeah, I think there are there are scenarios where 280 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 3: you can get away with uh, you know, something goes 281 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,959 Speaker 3: wrong on defense this time. You just had every R 282 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 3: eleven against there eleven and we made it work. 283 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: The Athletic put out sort of this infographic about the 284 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 1: Broncos path to the one seed, as well as the 285 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 1: division so on and so forth, and they actually they 286 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 1: have quite a few scenarios here where it all works 287 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: out just fine. They really just need two games, like 288 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 1: the way, yeah, I mean way that shakes out, the 289 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 1: most basic way to boil it down. 290 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:10,079 Speaker 2: We talked about this last night. For a second. It 291 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 2: is two games. You gotta win two or three. I mean, 292 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 2: that's the rest of it is. 293 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 3: There are others, there are other scenarios and everything else, 294 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,320 Speaker 3: but you gotta win two or two or three. And 295 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 3: all of a sudden with no Pat Mahomes, you know, 296 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,720 Speaker 3: that Christmas game kind of looks looks a lot more tasty. 297 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 2: Do you see the line on it? I have not. 298 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 2: Do you know what to guess the line is? 299 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:29,719 Speaker 3: I'm gonna guess that line moved around eight points with 300 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 3: Mahomes out. 301 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 2: Well, it did move a lot, certainly, But what do 302 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 2: you what do you guess what it is today? 303 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 3: I would guess that it would have been something like 304 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:43,199 Speaker 3: Casey minus six, and I'm guessing it's probably Denver plus two. 305 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 2: As we sit here today, it is Broncos minus five 306 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 2: and a half. I'm sorry, Broncos minus two, minus five and. 307 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: A half, minus five and a half. Okay, okay, not 308 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 1: a lot of Gardner minshew believe there. And it's not 309 00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: even just Gardner minshew, it's it's really operation. 310 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 2: You're eliminated. 311 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 3: So you kind of wonder if it's Christmas, if they're 312 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 3: gonna rest guys, and you know that kind of thing. 313 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 1: It's a short week and the pronxms are traveling, but 314 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 1: you sort of feel like, regardless of what happens here 315 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 1: in the Jacksonville Jaguars game, and I actually really like 316 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: their chances to win this game, but we and I 317 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: definitely want to get into why come on up here 318 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: in just a bit. But Sean has had this sort 319 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 1: of maniacal, meticulous focus this entire time. And you heard 320 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 1: him earlier in the week when he had sort of 321 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 1: clapped back at the or preparing for the postseason comment, Yeah, 322 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 1: I mean, you think about it wherever you want to. 323 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: I'm just saying because you'd give a bit of an 324 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: eye roll there, but I'm just saying, like you think 325 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 1: about however you want to, it's working, like it's working 326 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 1: with the guys. Like the guys understand we haven't earned anything. 327 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 1: You look at that infographic, right, I mean I was 328 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: getting ready to sort of break it down here, but yeah, 329 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: you win all three, you're the number one seed, you 330 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: win AFC West, right, you win the Chiefs and Chargers game. 331 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:00,959 Speaker 1: You're number one seed and you win AFCs, you win 332 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 1: Sunday's game, and you win the Chargers game, You'renum. One 333 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: to see and you win theF So like, there's so 334 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,839 Speaker 1: many paths to it, but there is a scenario where 335 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: they actually could be the seventh seed. Yes, now, every 336 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: that's everything going bad. But if I'm Sean Payton, I'm 337 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 1: showing this to the guys, like, not this specific one, 338 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: but like understanding, if everything goes back, you're you've locked 339 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 1: in a playoff spot, but you are by no means 340 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 1: guaranteed anything, including guaranteed a home game, which, of course 341 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: has been the whole point of this thing from the beginning. 342 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 1: In fact, it's been the point since he's post season 343 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 1: press conference last year, where he said our goal is 344 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 1: to win the AFCUS and a lot of people laughed 345 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: at him in that moment, saying, Okay, come on, man. 346 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 2: Everybody goal. But yeah, well, I mean you just made 347 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 2: the postseason. 348 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: You're just barely scraped in and he got blown out 349 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 1: by the Buffalo Bills, right, and do you forget the 350 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs exist Yeah, I think. 351 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 3: Look, let me go back to his we're prepared for 352 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 3: the postseason, not prepared. I mean every game is preparation 353 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 3: for the postseason at this point, right, it's double They 354 00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 3: are preparing for the postseason because every game is preparation 355 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 3: for that, but they're also in the micro moment, in 356 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 3: the microcosm, preparing for that. 357 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 2: Get that's the important thing, you know. 358 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 3: And it's a cliche saying, and I think it was 359 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 3: Lou Holds, I can't remember who, but the idea that 360 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 3: you don't have to be the best team in the country. 361 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 3: It's just the best team in the stadium that day, 362 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 3: and if you do that enough, you've got to be 363 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 3: the best team in the country. Right, And so I 364 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 3: think that's that's kind of the philosophy they're operating with, 365 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 3: is we're going to be the best team in the 366 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 3: stadium today and that and continue to do that, and 367 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 3: we're going to wake up and find ourselves in the 368 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 3: postseason and have a home games. So from that perspective, 369 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 3: I mean, it's it's kind of, you know, the coach 370 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 3: speak double edged thing. As far as the rest of 371 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 3: it goes, I mean, everybody wants to win the West. 372 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 3: Everybody wants to go to the Super Bowl. I don't 373 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 3: think many people gave them a I didn't think they 374 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 3: were going to win the AFC West. I know that, 375 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 3: you know, I didn't. I kind of thought it was gonna 376 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 3: be the Chargers. But you know now, and which is 377 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 3: still possible, although unlikely. This is why we added an 378 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 3: extra el to your last name for the Los Angeles Chargers. 379 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 3: I think that among other reasons, you know, likable, it's 380 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 3: whatever I think lovable. You're right, I think that. I 381 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 3: think that if you're looking at this schedule, it's it 382 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 3: would be easy to fall into the trap of these 383 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 3: look like easy games all of a sudden. The Jags, 384 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 3: I mean, the Jacks aren't easy, but you kind of 385 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 3: look at. 386 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 2: This thing and you're saying, hey, I think we can 387 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 2: win this. 388 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 3: You look at the Kansas City game, and now I'm 389 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 3: not saying it's easy, but it looks very winnable all 390 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 3: of a sudden. 391 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 2: The only game on here. 392 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 3: That I think you really have a question mark, because 393 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 3: I think theyll bet Jacksonville. The only game I have 394 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 3: a question mark is the Chargers game. Sean Payton has 395 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 3: repeatedly shown he struggles with Jim Harbaugh. I think he'd 396 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 3: love to cross that one off. That's why I don't 397 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 3: think if they've got everything locked up, that they necessarily 398 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 3: rest the starters. The twofold combination of one having a 399 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 3: month almost off, and two that Harball thing is you 400 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 3: know that's sticking with Sean Payton. 401 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 2: You know that's sticking with him. It probably is. 402 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 1: And also I'm of the mindset you're The way this 403 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 1: has worked is you've kept your foot on the gas 404 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: the entire time. 405 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 2: And there've been a couple of games. 406 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 1: I will acknowledge that what you had to accomplish to 407 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 1: beat the Raiders both times wasn't your best and. 408 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 2: Maybe you know that. 409 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 1: I mean, you don't say that, but maybe you know that, 410 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,440 Speaker 1: and maybe that is baked into the game plan. 411 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 2: Maybe a bit, yeah, maybe a. 412 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:11,919 Speaker 3: Bit more you want to acknowledge, Yeah, I mean, obviously, 413 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 3: you know me, I always say good enough isn't good enough? 414 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 2: But good enough was good enough. 415 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:19,159 Speaker 3: And you know those division games are going to be closer. 416 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, And to be honest with you, 417 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 3: the Raiders game, really the second wasn't that close. Well, 418 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:26,880 Speaker 3: no it wasn't. But it's like how aggressive they were. 419 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 1: This is why you can say it like this, because 420 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 1: how aggressive they were against Green Bay, which they had 421 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,920 Speaker 1: to play better against green Bay. How aggressive they were, 422 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,440 Speaker 1: especially on the offensive side of the ball against green Bay, 423 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 1: showed us not that they were holding back against the Raiders, 424 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: but they were. They were completing all the underneath stuff. 425 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 1: They were just kind of, hey, we're moving the ball. 426 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 1: We're putting it together these ten fourteen play drives because 427 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 1: we can and we know we can, and we're just 428 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:52,160 Speaker 1: eating clock. 429 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 2: At this point, we were eating clock. 430 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 1: We were trying to kneel this thing out or the 431 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:59,399 Speaker 1: closest equivalent to kneeling this thing out against this an 432 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,880 Speaker 1: inferior opponents, the Green Bay Packers. You were not gonna 433 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 1: be able to get away with playing like that. You 434 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 1: had to be aggressive. They had eight explosive plays in 435 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 1: a passing game against the Green Bay Packers. They didn't 436 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: even narrow attempt on explosive play against the Raiders. That 437 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 1: for me was the very telling sign of there is 438 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: a game plan specific for what we do in this 439 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 1: situation and what we do in this situation, and all 440 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: of it is specifically designed of what do we have 441 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:28,880 Speaker 1: to accomplish to get the win, and that's the secure 442 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:32,359 Speaker 1: point and everything else is for everybody to debate, whether 443 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,640 Speaker 1: it comes to style points and how much we won 444 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:35,399 Speaker 1: that game by. 445 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,640 Speaker 3: Oh you know me, I hate the style points today 446 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:39,320 Speaker 3: this said in college football, nobody cares the end of 447 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 3: the day. Find the only thing that matters in the 448 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 3: regular seasons the final score. It's the only thing that matters. 449 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 3: And so I think, you know again, this goes back 450 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:47,640 Speaker 3: to being the best team in the stadium that day 451 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 3: and continuing to take that game by game, and if 452 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 3: you do it enough games, you're gonna wind up being 453 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:53,639 Speaker 3: the NFL champion. 454 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 2: And honestly, the Broncos have got a really good shot 455 00:18:58,440 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 2: this thing. 456 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 3: I mean, like, I'm not one of the these people 457 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 3: that believe I mean, you know me, I'm a skeptic. 458 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 3: I'm not in the supernatural all that kind of stuff. 459 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:05,880 Speaker 3: But this thing sort of feels like it's just it's 460 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 3: just shaping up to be that. It's it's bizarre how 461 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 3: it just keeps happening. 462 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 2: That might just be one of those years, folks, the 463 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:15,919 Speaker 2: day it might just be the data shows that, I mean, 464 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 2: the Broncos shouldn't be where they are. 465 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 1: The FAI stuff, Oh yeah, yeah, FBI, they did a 466 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 1: simulation for the Broncos. 467 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 2: Uh, they didn't. They got them bounced in the. 468 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:28,920 Speaker 1: AFC Championship Game by the Patriots, but they had them 469 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 1: winning out. They had them sweeping the rest of the 470 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 1: regular season, winning the first round and then losing a 471 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 1: nail bier against the Patriots. 472 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,200 Speaker 2: But even then, imagining that here in Denver. 473 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,199 Speaker 3: Imagine that to start the season, you got laughed at. Heck, 474 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 3: you guy got laughed at that three four weeks ago, just. 475 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: Saying Broncos Patriots in the AFC Championship game. People are like, well, 476 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 1: you're really into nostalgia. Yeah, right, Like good for you 477 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 1: to be in the nostalgia. But come on, but the 478 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,159 Speaker 1: fact that it's lining up ten years later, right, I mean, 479 00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: just about ten years later since the Broncos won the 480 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,199 Speaker 1: Super Bowl in Santa Clara. 481 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 2: Come on, now, it's just I'm saying it's just one 482 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 2: of those things that I'm starting to feel it.

We got the practice report moments ago. 506 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:08,720 Speaker 1: Pat Bryan is looks like he's good to go. R J. 507 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 1: Harvey gets another full practice in. Now, that's something I 508 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 1: asked you about earlier the week that you were a 509 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,199 Speaker 1: little bit worried about whether or not his availability. The 510 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 1: coach Schrader mood ended up not being something that was 511 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:21,439 Speaker 1: alarm bells. I think a lot of people thought it 512 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 1: was gonna be so I don't know. Ultimately good news 513 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,800 Speaker 1: looks like it. And Harvey, I mean, the roster sore, 514 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: but looks like he's gonna be okay. I still think 515 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: Trader's gonna play this weekend. How much rains to be seen. 516 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 1: And I think Tyler Badet is in trouble in terms 517 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 1: of a roster spot. You think that was more about 518 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 1: Tyler Biday I do. I mean Trader brings the exact 519 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 1: same skill set to the table. This is somebody they 520 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,400 Speaker 1: wanted to bring in undrafted free agent out. 521 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 2: Of Missouri back in the day. 522 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 3: They put a way to reclaim on him earlier this year, 523 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,880 Speaker 3: and they were outbid on the waiverclaim early this year. 524 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 3: So This is not just a grab intel on the 525 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 3: Jags with a guy who was on there, you know 526 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:53,400 Speaker 3: the roster for a minute. 527 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 2: This is the guy they're bringing onto the roster. 528 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 3: He's got a redundant skill set, and anytime you get 529 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,240 Speaker 3: that redundant skill set, it starts to, you know, raise 530 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 3: the hair on the back of my neck. 531 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: So I want to talk a little bit about the 532 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 1: matchup with the Jacksonville Jaguars defense. But a reminder that 533 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 1: we have a Jaguars tickets available on our KWA Instagram, 534 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 1: So if you want to go check that out. 535 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:11,439 Speaker 2: We have a post up there. 536 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: Anthony Rod put up at well have another pair to 537 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 1: give away on Mandy's show tomorrow, and of course we're 538 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,360 Speaker 1: gonna have a pair after five point thirty tomorrow night 539 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,119 Speaker 1: to give way on our coach's corner. 540 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 2: We break it down the Michael Bandy touchdown on that. 541 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:28,120 Speaker 1: So the Jacksonville Jaguars defense is I keep saying opportunistic. 542 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 2: I don't know if there's a better way to describe it. 543 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 2: You just say not good. I mean, I mean, I 544 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 2: kind of want. 545 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,919 Speaker 1: To say that, but you want to be more respectful 546 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 1: because they are a ten win team. Okay, Fine, this 547 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 1: is you don't you want to be you want to 548 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 1: be disrespectful? 549 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 2: Ass? 550 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: Fine, I don't want this audio showing up on the Jacksonville. 551 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:45,360 Speaker 2: Radio station on the bulletin board up there. 552 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:47,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, because that's what they got off pictures up there. 553 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 2: We're sitting there talking about yeah, like. 554 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:51,879 Speaker 1: Oh listen to disrespect and then all of a sudden 555 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 1: it's in their locker room. Now, I'm not gonna give 556 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 1: them that. I'm not gonna give them any kind of 557 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:57,639 Speaker 1: boltin board material. All isoing to say is they find 558 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 1: ways to create take a right. I mean, they've done 559 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:02,679 Speaker 1: that all season long. They're kind of like the Chicago 560 00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:05,200 Speaker 1: Bears for me. That's one and two by the way 561 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,879 Speaker 1: in the league right now in takeaways. They survive on it, 562 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,119 Speaker 1: and they give their offense extra possessions and guess what, 563 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 1: their offense, that's the right thing they go and they 564 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: score a lot of points in that process. 565 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 2: Well, it starts with their offense though. 566 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:16,359 Speaker 3: These two to these are two teams that want to 567 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:18,639 Speaker 3: be explosive on offense and want to bait you into 568 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 3: a shootout. These these are teams that wants you to 569 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,119 Speaker 3: go up tempo on offense and the minute that you do, 570 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 3: it starts to provide opportunity for their defenses to feast 571 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 3: on those kinds of things. So if you if you 572 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 3: play Denver Broncos football, you play muddy football, you run 573 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 3: the football, you keep it sloppy, you probably have a 574 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 3: better chance at winning this game than trying to engage 575 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:34,400 Speaker 3: in a shootout. 576 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:35,120 Speaker 2: Even though maybe we. 577 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 1: Just got away with that with with Green Bay, how 578 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 1: much of what they're doing offensively is real to you? 579 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,199 Speaker 1: I mean, because they Yeah, but they've been feating. I mean, 580 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 1: they've got a really creative screen game. Uh, they've been 581 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 1: feasting on some really bad defenses they. 582 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 3: Have, but i mean they you know, they've got some 583 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 3: creative concepts on offense there. They like to they like 584 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:54,159 Speaker 3: to run gun two back and they'll run They'll put 585 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 3: one of the backs out and split them out and 586 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 3: then they'll run him. 587 00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:57,760 Speaker 2: Uh, they're running back in motion. 588 00:23:57,920 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 3: And what you kind of get is when the safety 589 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 3: comes down, you'll have the opportunity to look at if 590 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:03,399 Speaker 3: the safety bites, then they're gonna send one of those 591 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:05,199 Speaker 3: running backs on a wheel or a vertical route over 592 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 3: the top of that and take advantage of your aggression 593 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 3: on defense. They want you to get aggressive so thing 594 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,640 Speaker 3: and take advantage of that. And I mean, I think 595 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 3: there's some creative stuff to what they're doing. I think 596 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 3: in year two, year three, Jacksonville might be a dangerous team, 597 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 3: especially if they get the defensive stuff solved. But right now, 598 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 3: I think this is probably a Broncos win. I'm not 599 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 3: you know, I'm not totally disrespectful of the Jags as. 600 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 2: I'm smirking here, but I do think the Broncos is 601 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:27,360 Speaker 2: gonna win this one. 602 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: The addition to Jacobe Myers has been really good for 603 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,680 Speaker 1: that team. Really has he sort of brought a standard 604 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,120 Speaker 1: to what they were able to accomplish. I mean, I'm 605 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,120 Speaker 1: in such a huge Brian Thomas junior fan and loves 606 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 1: his work. Last year, this year, he's had a terrible 607 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:44,720 Speaker 1: time with drops, terrible time with injuries, and so they 608 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 1: had to find a solution there. And plus they lost 609 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 1: Britain Strange earlier in the season. He's back now he's 610 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 1: playing really well. They're they're not gonna have Baseial Tooton 611 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 1: in this game, which is a big deal to do. Yeah, 612 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 1: I know, it's your guy. Every time, you know, the 613 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 1: one thing that never gets old. It gets old for me. 614 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,159 Speaker 1: But I think for the most listeners it's a self gloss. 615 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 1: Anytime you have a chance to talk about how right 616 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,119 Speaker 1: you were on a guy, you will not miss it 617 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 1: for a second. And even though la quit Allen has 618 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 1: had a much smaller role this year, of the two 619 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 1: rookie running backs is a very small role. You're like, Hey, guys, 620 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 1: remember what I talked about luquick wa Allen. Hey guess 621 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 1: what I'm just telling you. If he has a big game, 622 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 1: you know where you heard it. One time I thought 623 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 1: it was wrong. Turned out I was mistaken. I've been 624 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: wrong before, I'll be wrong again. You said you've been 625 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 1: wrong all season, especially about this team. I mean you 626 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:33,159 Speaker 1: moved the goalpost so many times. Eventually you will be right. 627 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:34,719 Speaker 3: I mean if you move the goalpost, I mean them 628 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:36,159 Speaker 3: all the way back around or right back when we 629 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 3: started right. 630 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:38,639 Speaker 2: Like broken clock kind of thing. 631 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,959 Speaker 1: But anyway, so I say that, this for me feels 632 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,920 Speaker 1: like if you can impact Trevor Lawrence, you get to him, 633 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 1: you get some get pressure on. 634 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 3: He is get frustrated too a pressure. You've seen him 635 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:51,639 Speaker 3: make some turnovers, You've seen him make some throws. Hurry up, 636 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 3: dial that speed up a little too. Fast, and I 637 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:55,200 Speaker 3: think that's I think the Bronco is the perfect team 638 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:56,919 Speaker 3: for that. We do get pressure, we do, we do 639 00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:58,639 Speaker 3: get after the quarterback, we do knock him down, we 640 00:25:58,680 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 3: do we do sack. 641 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 2: I'm got a high rate to anybody in the league. 642 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:02,680 Speaker 1: You just say something in the break that I actually 643 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,719 Speaker 1: want to give credit for, and it's just threw my 644 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:09,239 Speaker 1: mouth a little bit. So you said that teams just 645 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: don't run against this team, right, because because Sean was 646 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 1: talking about it yesterday and he said, well, there's a 647 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 1: number one run defense in the league. 648 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 2: Now they're twenty eight against the past. 649 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 1: But that's because they get into all these shootouts and 650 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 1: everybody's thrown against them. But they only give up eighty 651 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:24,639 Speaker 1: six rushing yards per game. And so you look at that, 652 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:26,159 Speaker 1: you're like, ah, Lee, man, this must be like a 653 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 1: really stout front. 654 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,720 Speaker 3: You are. They're not a very stealth fun Oh, just 655 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 3: everybody throws against them because they. 656 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 2: Get into shootout. They got you into it. 657 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 1: They get a couple of really good edge rushers, but 658 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 1: not even like top tier of the league edge rushers. 659 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 2: They're just good. 660 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, trade bon Walker's all right, I'm giving that credits. 661 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 1: So you don't want to say Boltimbourban's I'm saying what agreement? 662 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 2: Look at them all that. Yeah, I listen to you 663 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 2: per forming when I watched them. 664 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:54,680 Speaker 1: I'd say it's more about the fact that teams get 665 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: behind and they feel like they don't have the option 666 00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: to run it. So if the Broncos can play sound, 667 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 1: they cannot let Trevor Lawrence escape on some of those 668 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 1: design either design runs or just even some of the 669 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,199 Speaker 1: escape hats that he does sometimes does I just feel like, 670 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,120 Speaker 1: you play your game, You're gonna be fine in this one. 671 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 2: And am I missing something? 672 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 3: No, I'm with you on net. I think the Broncos. 673 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 3: I mean, I think the question mark. Here's the Broncos 674 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:19,399 Speaker 3: ground game, which has been a question martiince JK. Dobbins 675 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 3: went out and with RJ with the Ribs, and you 676 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 3: really don't know what the level of performance is going 677 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 3: to be there. But if you're able to keep a 678 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 3: consistent ground game going, you're gonna win this game. They 679 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 3: just I mean, even though it says they don't give 680 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 3: up a lot of yardists, again, it's just because teams 681 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 3: get baited into these shootouts with them and then they 682 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 3: start throwing the ball around quick. 683 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:36,160 Speaker 2: Note here before we hit the brake. 684 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:38,879 Speaker 1: Ben Power's question you're on the text line asking if 685 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 1: Ben Power's gonna be back.

We count those counters. 715 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 1: But there's the there's an amount of some people I've 716 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 1: been Solacs of the world. 717 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 2: A couple of those guys are like, okay, now I. 718 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 1: Can kind of see it's but even even this week, man, 719 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 1: I mean some of the stats nerds are still like, 720 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 1: I'm just not in And like Jeremy Fowler and I 721 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 1: was talking about it a little bit yesterday and I 722 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 1: don't need universal love, and I think it's actually working 723 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 1: for the Broncos that they're not getting universal love. 724 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 2: So fine. 725 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 1: But what I didn't like about Jeremy Fowler yesterday was this, 726 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 1: you know, I still remember how bad they were against 727 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 1: the Jets and the Raiders, and I'm thinking, like, how 728 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:37,840 Speaker 1: many teams have had games during the course of a 729 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: season where it just didn't go right, and didn't they 730 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 1: still won those games. But I'm just saying, likes, things 731 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 1: didn't go well, you didn't play well, okay, and for 732 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 1: some reason, you're gonna judge a team based on the couple. 733 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 2: Of their lowest moments, and that was months ago. 734 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 3: I mean, I agree with you on that portion of it. 735 00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,160 Speaker 3: But I'll say this. I read Jeremy Fothererson because I 736 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 3: saw you comment on it. I'm like, man, if you 737 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 3: don't believe them, bo, this is the fairest critique that 738 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 3: you could give. 739 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 2: If you don't, I'm okay with that. I disagree with 740 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 2: your take. 741 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 3: This is because there's most of the time you look 742 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 3: at something and I disagree. 743 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 2: So I'm like, this guy's an idiot. 744 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 3: But then I look, you know, like with Charity Fowlers, 745 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 3: I looked at him like, I get where he got here. 746 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 3: Why I don't believe I'm not the same way as him, 747 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 3: but I get how he got here, and I'm okay 748 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 3: with that. It takes that I don't like or the 749 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 3: one with was it two weeks ago, three weeks ago, 750 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 3: it was a disgusting Yeah, the disgust. And the guy 751 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:27,600 Speaker 3: clearly didn't watch the game. I mean, he clearly did 752 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 3: not watch the game. It winds it back by the way, 753 00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 3: or he watched that back and then he did. You 754 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 3: see his comment this week not I I like I 755 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 3: at that point where you're so disingenuous that you didn't 756 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 3: watch a game and you published an article, I'm out 757 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 3: on you. 758 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 4: Yeah. 759 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 1: Deontay Lee last week said that the offense was disgusting 760 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:47,040 Speaker 1: against the Raiders. This week, he moved him up to 761 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 1: number two in his power rankings. He said, both the 762 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:50,880 Speaker 1: power rankings are number two. 763 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 2: Whatever. 764 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 1: He said, Bodix did enough to win against the Packers 765 00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: and shut me up along the way. 766 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 2: That's the headline that says about it. You literally did 767 00:30:58,640 --> 00:30:59,440 Speaker 2: the least you could do. 768 00:30:59,520 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 3: There. 769 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 2: Bow Knicks did enough. That was your He had the 770 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 2: best game of his career. 771 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 3: He through four touchdowns, three hundred yards, no no turnovers. 772 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 2: Bo Nicks did enough. Come on, man, all right, So 773 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,280 Speaker 2: this is this is the context. This is what else 774 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 2: he said. 775 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 1: He said, I've been harsh Shorte Dever's offense, but I'll 776 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 1: always be fair, No, right, he said, I admit that 777 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 1: quarterback Boon Knicks has elevated his play in this season's 778 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 1: biggest moments. On Sunday, Nicks was excellent at avoiding sacks, 779 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 1: moving the chains on third down, and turning red zone 780 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: trips into touchdowns. And it's been that way all season. 781 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: I feel like he still did more than that. Like 782 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 1: the way he's describing that was he was like game manager. 783 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 2: That's what I get enough. This was an Alex Smith, Dude. 784 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 3: That was a transcendent performance by a ball against the 785 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,959 Speaker 3: good defense. Now they lost their best player, you know, 786 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 3: seventy eight percent of the way through the game or whatever, 787 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 3: But I mean he was he was dealing before Parsons 788 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 3: went out. It's just they could not get any pressure 789 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 3: and it was over at that point. He was masterful 790 00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 3: after Parsons went out, But he was good until this 791 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 3: fine before he was. Yeah, they were still succeeding before 792 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 3: Parsons went out. It wasn't the reason they lost the game. 793 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:08,680 Speaker 1: By the way, having you say transcended, is you coming 794 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 1: a long way too? 795 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 2: Because you're coming to ask me being honest about what 796 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 2: he did in the moment. 797 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 3: I mean, it was a transander. It was Bo's best game. 798 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 3: I'm watching it thing live. I'm like this might be 799 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 3: the best game this dude's ever played. 800 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 1: He said, while those metrics are often as subjective to 801 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:23,280 Speaker 1: volatility and don't tell us whether a quarterback is elites, 802 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 1: that combination will win games, and if Nick Nick stays 803 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:30,240 Speaker 1: hot in those key areas, never can be a champion, 804 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 1: no matter how uneven the passing game gets at times. 805 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 3: You're not a backhanded Not this all backhanded stuff. Look, 806 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 3: it's not the first guy with the last name of 807 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 3: Lee to lose big time. And then you know, in 808 00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 3: the United States, it's a little history lesson. 809 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 1: Read a book, all right, So when we come back, 810 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 1: I want to get into a little bit of the 811 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 1: Pukenuka stuff. Amidst all of the drama, he actually said 812 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 1: some nice things about the Broncos. 813 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 2: We'll explain next
