So 0:04:14.240 --> 0:04:16.159 they flipped it. Why would you have the Cubs play 0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:17.960 the nine oh eight. Why wouldn't you just have the 0:04:17.960 --> 0:04:21.240 West Coast team play the nine oh eight. But that's 0:04:21.279 --> 0:04:24.160 what they're doing.

The captain Boone 0:04:44.360 --> 0:04:46.719 Jenner sitting one goal away from two hundred for his 0:04:46.839 --> 0:04:48.839 career if he gets it tonight, and when he does, 0:04:48.880 --> 0:04:51.840 he'll become the third Blue Jacket in franchise history.

That would 0:04:55.640 --> 0:04:59.240 join Rick Nash and Cam Atkinson if I am correct. 0:04:59.240 --> 0:05:02.680 Shout out to loyal Bluejackets supporter Greg from April and 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:05.840 Blis meets on Court Street.

All right, 0:07:18.600 --> 0:07:21.720 let's get into what I think is easily classified as 0:07:22.040 --> 0:07:24.480 our hot topic around the NFL this week. For our segment, 0:07:24.520 --> 0:07:27.400 it's brought to you by Hudson Oil Fueling champions on 0:07:27.920 --> 0:07:28.640 and off the field. 0:07:28.680 --> 0:07:29.560 The hot topic this. 0:07:29.480 --> 0:07:34.920 Week Joe Flacco and the news that starts developing on Tuesday. 0:07:35.000 --> 0:07:37.240 The official I mean, think of the track that he's 0:07:37.320 --> 0:07:40.960 on and where his world was and life was on 0:07:41.280 --> 0:07:45.760 Monday evening gets up on Tuesday, the trade breaks, news 0:07:45.760 --> 0:07:48.960 of the trade breaks on Tuesday. Wednesday, he arrives in 0:07:49.080 --> 0:07:53.560 town for practice. This after a five hour car ride 0:07:53.640 --> 0:07:56.920 where he is talking on the phone with Zach to 0:07:57.600 --> 0:08:01.760 game plan and get up to speed on terminology and 0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:06.280 practicing yesterday, practicing today, game on Sunday. There's a whole 0:08:06.280 --> 0:08:09.880 lot on his plate now to his advantage, he's a 0:08:09.920 --> 0:08:15.840 really smart guy. Football IQ off the charts by all accounts, veteran, experienced, 0:08:15.960 --> 0:08:18.480 well traveled, forty years old, eighteen years. 0:08:18.240 --> 0:08:18.800 In the league. 0:08:18.840 --> 0:08:20.880 But I think seven teams, I may have lost one 0:08:20.920 --> 0:08:23.760 along the way, seven different teams, And through that process 0:08:23.800 --> 0:08:27.000 has been the ability to translate terminology of seeing it 0:08:27.600 --> 0:08:30.840 one way in one playbook and translating it to oh, well, 0:08:30.840 --> 0:08:33.280 that's that play in this book. It's just a different 0:08:33.520 --> 0:08:39.200 Instead of ABC, it's XYZ. That's part of the challenge 0:08:39.320 --> 0:08:42.600 this week. I love the initial reactions. We'll talk with 0:08:42.880 --> 0:08:48.280 Trags about this from his teammates. One that jumps out 0:08:48.440 --> 0:08:52.120 from t Higgins who said, simply quote, the guy can 0:08:52.240 --> 0:08:56.280 sling it for sure, and that is definitely Zach brought 0:08:56.280 --> 0:08:58.760 it up yesterday. He can throw the ball. There is 0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:01.439 no question about the arms strength of Joe Flacco. The 0:09:01.559 --> 0:09:04.040 question becomes, and I think the obvious concern from everybody 0:09:04.080 --> 0:09:07.280 when they heard the news at the initial stunned response 0:09:07.360 --> 0:09:10.600 of WHOA they trained in the division and got Joe Flacco. 0:09:11.400 --> 0:09:13.800 Then at some point the thought becomes, well, in a minute, 0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:17.199 he's forty, he's not exactly mobile, and this offensive line 0:09:17.240 --> 0:09:22.599 isn't exactly great at this point. So the challenge becomes 0:09:23.320 --> 0:09:25.360 protecting him, giving him an opportunity. 0:09:25.880 --> 0:09:28.160 And that's that's not a new challenge. 0:09:28.200 --> 0:09:31.600 This team has clearly struggled in all facets from that standpoint. 0:09:31.640 --> 0:09:33.480 The run game, Chase Brown is averaging two and a 0:09:33.520 --> 0:09:36.800 half yards per carry. I ask Dave Lapham on Monday 0:09:36.880 --> 0:09:40.520 Night on Bengals line about where this offensive line is 0:09:40.880 --> 0:09:43.760 where it needs to get to and starting with the 0:09:43.800 --> 0:09:46.680 physicality and the need to be able to move guys 0:09:46.720 --> 0:09:47.640 off the line. 0:09:50.040 --> 0:09:50.360 Day night. 0:09:53.280 --> 0:09:56.120 They have to do more, you know. I mean when 0:09:56.160 --> 0:09:58.520 they double team and rub to the next level, gets 0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:01.080 some movement for the guy, let him make a read, 0:10:01.200 --> 0:10:04.040 let him make a cut. I mean he's getting stoned. 0:10:04.080 --> 0:10:06.840 I mean, he's getting hit far too often. He's he's 0:10:06.880 --> 0:10:10.400 taken shots that running back shouldn't take. I mean, you know, 0:10:11.040 --> 0:10:13.200 he should. He should be able to get past the 0:10:13.240 --> 0:10:16.320 line of scrimmage and feel pretty confident that he's going 0:10:16.400 --> 0:10:19.040 to be free and clear and not get smoked, you know, 0:10:19.080 --> 0:10:21.160 and make a first cut down the football team now. 0:10:21.400 --> 0:10:23.720 And I'm not sure Chase Brown feels like he can 0:10:23.800 --> 0:10:26.960 say that. Yeah, And you know, I look at the 0:10:26.960 --> 0:10:28.840 first half. The game was not out of hand. It 0:10:28.840 --> 0:10:30.280 was fourteen to three. At the half. 0:10:30.640 --> 0:10:34.920 The Bengals had run thirty plays, only seven runs to 0:10:35.000 --> 0:10:38.120 twenty three passes, with Jake browning at the helm. And 0:10:38.160 --> 0:10:40.080 I look at the Lions at the half and they're 0:10:40.160 --> 0:10:42.640 up fourteen to three, and they've run it fifteen times, 0:10:42.679 --> 0:10:45.319 and they've thrown it fifteen times and it's just those 0:10:45.440 --> 0:10:47.480 numbers I look at and and at the half the 0:10:47.480 --> 0:10:50.680 Bengals had in the only in the seven rushes, they'd 0:10:50.679 --> 0:10:52.560 average four point three yards of carry. 0:10:52.559 --> 0:10:54.960 And I'm thinking a little bit more, a little bit more. 0:10:55.000 --> 0:10:57.360 That don't make Don't ask Jake to throw twenty three 0:10:57.440 --> 0:11:00.600 times and a half in any game. And if it 0:11:00.720 --> 0:11:03.160 was thirty to three at the half, you'd understand I'm 0:11:03.160 --> 0:11:03.679 passing a lot. 0:11:03.760 --> 0:11:05.640 It was only fourteen to three at that half. 0:11:05.480 --> 0:11:08.160 Right right, And when you look at it, Jared Goff, 0:11:08.960 --> 0:11:11.040 future Hall of Famer, I mean, he's right there, He's 0:11:11.120 --> 0:11:11.959 running the cusp of it. 0:11:12.679 --> 0:11:14.720 He's good with that. Yeah, he's good with that. 0:11:15.160 --> 0:11:17.560 Because then his play action pass game, which I think 0:11:17.559 --> 0:11:19.800 he's as good as I've ever seen play action passing. 0:11:19.880 --> 0:11:24.240 Understanding the concepts, understanding the route tree combinations, understanding all 0:11:24.280 --> 0:11:24.440 of that. 0:11:25.080 --> 0:11:27.760 Jared Goff, he gets it done. 0:11:27.840 --> 0:11:28.080 Now. 0:11:28.320 --> 0:11:30.880 I was struck last week, last Monday night, or it 0:11:30.960 --> 0:11:33.400 was actually Tuesday, when you and Box did the show 0:11:33.440 --> 0:11:36.439 and talk with Lomas Brown, the long time eighteen year 0:11:36.480 --> 0:11:38.160 offensive line for the Lions, a legend part of the 0:11:38.200 --> 0:11:40.720 broadcast team, and I was struck by him saying, when 0:11:40.760 --> 0:11:44.840 it comes to the Lions their identity, the physicality in 0:11:44.920 --> 0:11:47.520 dictating on both sides of the ball, and you could 0:11:47.600 --> 0:11:49.800 just hear it in his voice what he was saying 0:11:49.800 --> 0:11:52.440 about what Dan Campbell had instilled for the way we're 0:11:52.480 --> 0:11:55.160 going to play. We're going to be physical upfront. And 0:11:55.360 --> 0:11:57.760 how many times he said in the conversation with you guys, 0:11:57.920 --> 0:12:01.600 we run the ball and we am pose our physicality 0:12:01.720 --> 0:12:04.240 on other teams, and that's gonna be music to your ears, 0:12:04.240 --> 0:12:07.480 absolutely to any offensive linean's eers it is lance You're right. 0:12:07.520 --> 0:12:10.320 I mean, the Detroit Lions imposed their will in the 0:12:10.360 --> 0:12:13.960 opposition and they do it by being more physical than 0:12:14.080 --> 0:12:15.560 every opponent they face. 0:12:15.800 --> 0:12:18.520 Dan Campbell played football that way. Dan Campbell was a 0:12:18.679 --> 0:12:24.760 very very physical, tough, uh scrappy uh tight end who 0:12:24.920 --> 0:12:26.800 you know, bite your ankles, you know. 0:12:26.880 --> 0:12:30.600 It's like the famous that famous line. This is a classic. 0:12:30.920 --> 0:12:34.240 But he he he is a guy that that appreciates 0:12:34.720 --> 0:12:38.360 offensive and defensive lineman, you know, and he knows that 0:12:38.360 --> 0:12:41.960 that is basically the foundation of how he's gonna win 0:12:42.000 --> 0:12:44.840 football games. We're gonna have We're going to bring in 0:12:45.120 --> 0:12:48.000 the best offensive defensive line when we can find to 0:12:48.080 --> 0:12:51.320 fit our scheme, to fit our concepts of how we 0:12:51.360 --> 0:12:53.760 want to do things and how we want them to 0:12:53.840 --> 0:12:58.360 respond to our coaches, and uh, there's not no substitute, 0:12:58.559 --> 0:13:01.080 no substitute for that, for that process, and. 0:13:00.960 --> 0:13:01.880 We're going to go through it. 0:13:02.120 --> 0:13:03.960 We're going to get the right people and on a 0:13:03.960 --> 0:13:05.880 weekly basis, we are going to execute it. 0:13:06.240 --> 0:13:09.040 And Dave with running the ball comes time of possession, 0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:10.840 and it would staly help to have the ball. The 0:13:10.840 --> 0:13:14.120 Bengals are averaging twenty five and a half minutes of 0:13:14.120 --> 0:13:18.560 possession a game. They're being outpossessed nine minutes per game 0:13:18.640 --> 0:13:19.439 by the other team. 0:13:20.040 --> 0:13:22.360 I mean that's over half a quarter. Yeah, you know, 0:13:22.440 --> 0:13:24.160 I mean over half a quarter. They're giving up to 0:13:24.200 --> 0:13:27.000 the opposition. And when we had real good teams, you know, 0:13:27.040 --> 0:13:30.120 the Super Bowl teams, all the Super Bowl teams had 0:13:30.520 --> 0:13:33.600 winning time of possession on a weekly basis. You know, 0:13:33.840 --> 0:13:37.080 they didn't leave the defense out there, you know, dangling 0:13:37.240 --> 0:13:39.439 to be you know, taken advantage. 0:13:38.960 --> 0:13:43.960 Of Dave Lapham earlier this week on Bengals Line Monday 0:13:44.000 --> 0:13:47.360 Night talking about the state of this offensive line going forward. 0:13:47.360 --> 0:13:51.880 There is an added fly in the ointment, so to speak, 0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:55.280 as Trags noted at practice today on Twitter at Trags 0:13:55.600 --> 0:13:59.679 Dalton Reisner and Lucas Patrick were working out at left 0:13:59.720 --> 0:14:05.000 guard in individual drills. Now, remember Lucas Patrick has entered 0:14:05.000 --> 0:14:07.240 the window, the twenty one day window returning from the 0:14:07.280 --> 0:14:09.480 injured list, where they can activate him at any point. 0:14:09.520 --> 0:14:11.360 Doesn't count against the roster at this point, but can 0:14:11.400 --> 0:14:13.720 activate him as soon as this weekend if all would 0:14:13.800 --> 0:14:16.680 check out. But his trags noted on Twitter earlier today, 0:14:17.160 --> 0:14:20.600 Dalton Reisner, who Pro Football Focus hasn't exactly loved to 0:14:20.600 --> 0:14:23.280 this point in the season, and Lucas Patrick repping at 0:14:23.360 --> 0:14:28.200 left guard. That for the plan bead Dylan Fairchild, who 0:14:28.240 --> 0:14:31.280 did not practice again today, and of course at right 0:14:31.320 --> 0:14:35.760 guard would be Jalen Rivers, the rookie so musical chairs 0:14:35.760 --> 0:14:38.800 at left guard, potentially the rookie at right guard, all 0:14:38.840 --> 0:14:40.920 against the backdrop of an offensive line that had to 0:14:40.920 --> 0:14:45.560 get better even before the very immobile but veteran Joe 0:14:45.560 --> 0:14:48.400 Flacco stepped into the mix. I think the point, the 0:14:48.480 --> 0:14:51.320 last point made by Lap about time of possession and 0:14:51.800 --> 0:14:55.720 in that the approach to throwing the football. You're talking 0:14:55.760 --> 0:14:58.000 this week of Bengals team that is throwing at sixty 0:14:58.040 --> 0:15:00.280 five percent of the time that is the highest straight 0:15:00.360 --> 0:15:03.320 in the NFL. Compare contrast that to a Packers team 0:15:03.320 --> 0:15:06.320 that is throwing it just to tick over fifty percent 0:15:06.360 --> 0:15:09.240 of the time. In fact, I think it was one 0:15:09.320 --> 0:15:10.960 hundred and twenty. It may have been even one hundred 0:15:10.960 --> 0:15:12.920 and twenty one pass attempts to one hundred and twenty 0:15:12.920 --> 0:15:15.080 one rushing attempts going into this week for the. 0:15:15.000 --> 0:15:15.880 Green Bay Packers. 0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:18.880 Last year, green Bay ran it more than they threw 0:15:18.920 --> 0:15:21.680 it for the first time since two thousand and three 0:15:22.120 --> 0:15:26.440 for Green Bay Packers football. That's their MO now. And 0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:29.520 the interesting thing about that is they haven't exactly been 0:15:29.560 --> 0:15:31.960 tearing it up on the ground. I think Josh Jacobs 0:15:32.000 --> 0:15:34.120 is averaging i'll pull it up here, is averaging three 0:15:34.160 --> 0:15:36.800 point three yards of carry. As a team, they're averaging 0:15:36.840 --> 0:15:40.200 three point eight. And yet they have stuck with it 0:15:40.480 --> 0:15:43.600 to continue to try to make it work and used 0:15:43.680 --> 0:15:46.520 him a lot in receiving as well. Not as much 0:15:46.600 --> 0:15:50.480 as you would expect, but it's been an option for them, 0:15:50.520 --> 0:15:53.800 and that's kind of their identity and MO. They don't 0:15:53.880 --> 0:15:56.440 ask a whole lot of Jordan Love. It's more of 0:15:56.800 --> 0:15:59.680 a balanced attack. All right, let's do this. Let's take 0:15:59.680 --> 0:16:02.160 a time out. We'll get a check on News. Trags 0:16:02.240 --> 0:16:04.960 is in the house. He's ordered up food. I believe 0:16:05.320 --> 0:16:08.240 he's looking sharp. He's navigated. He he'll be my my 0:16:08.360 --> 0:16:12.280 traffic reporter because he certainly knows the current status of 0:16:12.320 --> 0:16:14.960 the highways and byways. At one point I may have 0:16:15.000 --> 0:16:17.400 told him, he said, hey, feel free to just bag 0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:19.200 the whole thing if it's really that bad. 0:16:19.600 --> 0:16:21.240 He navigated it all. 0:16:21.360 --> 0:16:24.560 He is in the house. Seven o'clock Eric Keegan Nickoson 0:16:24.600 --> 0:16:27.760 talks You See Football, seven thirty six our high school 0:16:27.800 --> 0:16:31.440 football segment, and seven fifty Dan Klaskins with your fantasy 0:16:31.440 --> 0:16:34.200 football man. We are loaded up, locked up, and ready 0:16:34.240 --> 0:16:36.240 to go. Stop, buy and hang out with us. We're 0:16:36.280 --> 0:16:38.960 at Long Next in Richwood. It's the Cincinnati Tax Resolution 0:16:39.160 --> 0:16:42.040 Power by Tope Sheldon round Table Show. It is presented 0:16:42.040 --> 0:16:44.360 by Postman Law and it's right here on seven hundred 0:16:44.480 --> 0:16:50.760 WLW six thirty seven, seven hundred WLW. 0:16:50.920 --> 0:16:52.240 Are at Long next day in Richwood. 0:16:52.280 --> 0:16:55.840 It's the Cincinnati Tax Resolution Power by Tope Sheldon Roundtable Show. 0:16:55.880 --> 0:16:58.920 It's time for our standing ovation from last week, presented 0:16:58.960 --> 0:17:01.960 by Ovation the herb Resort, where Cincinnati coming to Newport 0:17:02.000 --> 0:17:02.480 come together. 0:17:02.680 --> 0:17:03.960 We'll go with Jamar Chase. 0:17:04.000 --> 0:17:05.840 He had the six catches, one hundred and ten yards, 0:17:05.880 --> 0:17:08.800 two touchdowns, the long TD He becomes the ninth player 0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:12.359 in NFL history to have six games. I think it 0:17:12.400 --> 0:17:14.320 is now of at least five catches, one hundred yards 0:17:14.359 --> 0:17:16.960 and two tds. He ties Lance Alworth, who I was 0:17:17.040 --> 0:17:20.280 named after, and Antonio Freeman for the most in the 0:17:20.280 --> 0:17:22.240 first five years in the NFL. 0:17:22.320 --> 0:17:24.080 That's the Ovation standing Ovation. 0:17:24.480 --> 0:17:28.600 America's River Roots Festival comes alive at Ovation Bourbon Beard dining, 0:17:28.680 --> 0:17:32.840 live music, and panoramic skyline views along Kentucky's Boardwalk.

What a treat to have him in person tonight. 0:17:46.560 --> 0:17:49.760 He covers the Bengals for CLNS Media, host of the 0:17:49.840 --> 0:17:53.520 Jungle War podcast, the man we call Trags Mike Petralia. 0:17:53.680 --> 0:17:54.800 It is great to see you. 0:17:55.000 --> 0:17:57.280 It is great to be here. I must tell you. 0:17:57.480 --> 0:17:57.880 I am. 0:17:59.520 --> 0:18:01.560 Knowing this person can cause Lance. 0:18:02.320 --> 0:18:05.280 It gives a lot more personality. 0:18:04.600 --> 0:18:06.120 When you are in person. 0:18:06.560 --> 0:18:13.040 Yes, there's a lot more. 0:18:14.560 --> 0:18:15.440 That's a key question. 0:18:15.520 --> 0:18:17.640 Let me see. We may be switching your mics here. 0:18:18.000 --> 0:18:21.080 There's the there's the realness of being here in person. 0:18:21.920 --> 0:18:25.040 It's not as easy as the bone. Oh you are back, 0:18:25.200 --> 0:18:26.800 You are back and ready to go. 0:18:26.960 --> 0:18:27.200 Yeah. 0:18:27.240 --> 0:18:29.560 Okay. What I was gonna say is I love. 0:18:30.920 --> 0:18:35.440 In person because there's a lot more texture and animation 0:18:36.280 --> 0:18:39.920 and I'm into the conversation a lot more and I'm 0:18:39.920 --> 0:18:40.600 gonna get fat. 0:18:41.240 --> 0:18:42.000 So there is that. 0:18:42.400 --> 0:18:43.639 There you go, there you go. 0:18:43.760 --> 0:18:45.880 Let me let me backtrack a little bit into the week. 0:18:46.560 --> 0:18:49.680 In the last week, once we heard Zach pivot from 0:18:49.880 --> 0:18:54.760 overwhelming support for Jake to this week, we'll see. I 0:18:54.800 --> 0:18:57.520 think the writing was on the wall that something was coming. 0:18:57.560 --> 0:18:59.960 What was your initial reaction when it was Joe Flack? 0:19:00.080 --> 0:19:05.000 Go curious, but he was the best option available. That 0:19:05.240 --> 0:19:11.480 was my initial reaction. Clearly, putting Joe Flacco, the arguably 0:19:11.560 --> 0:19:16.119 the most immobile quarterback in the National Football League behind 0:19:16.200 --> 0:19:21.640 the current Bengals offensive line, doesn't intuitively make a lot 0:19:21.720 --> 0:19:25.919 of sense. But he can sling it. As t Higgins 0:19:25.960 --> 0:19:28.240 told us in the locker room today, he can still 0:19:28.280 --> 0:19:32.280 sling it. He can move the ball downfield and Clearly, 0:19:32.480 --> 0:19:36.840 Zack wants to get the ball downfield, even if teams 0:19:36.920 --> 0:19:40.879 defenses are giving the Bengals wide open spaces in the 0:19:40.880 --> 0:19:44.760 middle of the field. I don't understand why Mike Kasiki 0:19:45.240 --> 0:19:48.000 and Chase brown aren't bigger options in the middle of 0:19:48.040 --> 0:19:51.639 the wide open field. But that's because Zach wants to 0:19:51.680 --> 0:19:55.040 push the ball to T Higgins and Jamar Chase and 0:19:55.040 --> 0:19:59.000 andre Yosi Vash as we finally saw last Sunday against 0:19:59.040 --> 0:20:02.560 the Lions. He wants a quarterback that can get the 0:20:02.600 --> 0:20:05.639 ball downfield with authority. You were not getting that with 0:20:05.800 --> 0:20:09.480 Jake Browning, and that's why I think in large part 0:20:09.800 --> 0:20:14.520 the move was made. It also gives a rejuvenation to 0:20:14.600 --> 0:20:15.360 the locker room. 0:20:15.720 --> 0:20:16.480 It sends I. 0:20:16.440 --> 0:20:20.159 Asked T Higgins about this, does this message from the 0:20:20.280 --> 0:20:23.399 organization from the front office kind of kick you guys 0:20:23.400 --> 0:20:26.120 in the backside, saying you got to get going, You've 0:20:26.119 --> 0:20:28.040 got to win your one on ones, you've got to 0:20:28.119 --> 0:20:30.680 win battles at the line of scrimmage, Get open, and 0:20:30.800 --> 0:20:33.160 we'll get you a quarterback who can get the ball 0:20:33.240 --> 0:20:37.000 downfield to you with authority. So that was my initial reaction, 0:20:37.119 --> 0:20:39.960 but I do have my doubts if the Bengals cannot 0:20:40.000 --> 0:20:45.399 run the ball. Who's to say that Matt Lafleur and 0:20:45.560 --> 0:20:48.920 his defensive coordinator don't do everything in the world. Throw 0:20:48.960 --> 0:20:51.480 the kitchen sink at the Bengals offensive line, which, as 0:20:51.560 --> 0:20:56.200 you mentioned before, News, I believe there's already some significant 0:20:56.240 --> 0:20:59.600 question marks at the two garden positions, or at the 0:20:59.680 --> 0:21:00.639 left guard position. 0:21:00.760 --> 0:21:03.360 Anyway, Dylan pairschowd. I don't think it's going to play. 0:21:03.240 --> 0:21:07.400 This Sunday, but there's some significant questions, and Orlando Brown 0:21:07.520 --> 0:21:10.639 is not having a good year. So you throw everything 0:21:10.760 --> 0:21:14.880 and Micah Parsons at the Bengals and see if Joe 0:21:14.960 --> 0:21:19.159 Placo can get rid of the ball with any effectiveness 0:21:20.000 --> 0:21:20.919 early in that game. 0:21:21.160 --> 0:21:26.800 What a It was fascinating hearing Zach explain the car 0:21:26.920 --> 0:21:31.199 ride and what a crash course of indoctrinating or. 0:21:32.880 --> 0:21:35.760 Into your offense. It's what I mean you talk about 0:21:35.800 --> 0:21:36.600 speed learning. 0:21:36.640 --> 0:21:40.560 Holy cow, well, I mean, he is an eighteen year 0:21:40.640 --> 0:21:44.119 veteran of the National Football League. He, as the expression goes, 0:21:44.160 --> 0:21:47.920 has pretty much seen everything, knows all the answers that 0:21:48.320 --> 0:21:50.879 any defensive coordinator is going to throw at him, and 0:21:50.920 --> 0:21:55.520 there is institutional knowledge that is going to be beneficial there, 0:21:55.560 --> 0:21:59.000 but the institutional knowledge of not having worked for zach 0:21:59.280 --> 0:22:02.480 Or in the Bengal offense. That's what they're cramming right now. 0:22:02.520 --> 0:22:05.760 They're gonna have a late night meeting again tonight. They're 0:22:05.760 --> 0:22:08.359 gonna be burning I don't know the midnight oil, but 0:22:08.520 --> 0:22:11.520 is certainly gonna be meeting late into the night to 0:22:11.640 --> 0:22:15.560 try and get in as much of the playbook as 0:22:15.880 --> 0:22:20.080 Joe can comfortably digest and be ready to execute on 0:22:20.160 --> 0:22:20.680 a Sunday. 0:22:21.440 --> 0:22:25.760 The phrase I've heard a lot and you alluded to it, 0:22:25.840 --> 0:22:27.440 get the ball where it needs to go. 0:22:27.920 --> 0:22:29.080 In this case. 0:22:31.000 --> 0:22:33.040 T Higgins, if you look at the numbers and the 0:22:33.080 --> 0:22:35.680 projections and how many the pace he's on, it's down 0:22:35.720 --> 0:22:36.400 from a year ago. 0:22:36.440 --> 0:22:37.840 The catch rate is down. 0:22:38.200 --> 0:22:40.960 I think Chase Brown is somebody who catching the ball 0:22:41.000 --> 0:22:44.520 out of the backfield running the foot. There's I see 0:22:45.119 --> 0:22:48.080 those names being incorporated more along. 0:22:47.800 --> 0:22:50.160 With a Mike is sicky? Does that make sense? 0:22:50.240 --> 0:22:52.840 So here's something I think a lot of fans need 0:22:52.840 --> 0:22:57.879 to understand. This offense was designed with Joe Burrow's brain 0:22:58.480 --> 0:22:59.040 in mind. 0:22:59.440 --> 0:23:00.320 No pun in had it. 0:23:01.119 --> 0:23:04.920 Joe Burrow processes at the line of scrimmage, unlike any 0:23:05.000 --> 0:23:08.080 quarterback in the National Football League and it's not close. 0:23:08.160 --> 0:23:09.800 And Zach Taylor will tell you. 0:23:09.800 --> 0:23:12.080 That day in and day out, there is nobody that 0:23:12.119 --> 0:23:17.480 can process pre snap and even at the time the 0:23:17.520 --> 0:23:22.520 ball is snapped, nobody can process like he does. Jake 0:23:22.560 --> 0:23:25.040 Browning does not have that ability, and we don't know 0:23:25.080 --> 0:23:28.359 if Joe Flacco does. I mean, Joe Flacco has a 0:23:28.400 --> 0:23:30.879 lot of experience. He has a Super Bowl ring, we 0:23:30.920 --> 0:23:33.840 all understand that, and he is a very well accomplished 0:23:34.600 --> 0:23:38.840 National Football League quarterback. But the offense is built around 0:23:38.840 --> 0:23:42.520 a quarterback who ad libs for lack of better work 0:23:42.920 --> 0:23:46.240 to put ad libs mentally, there. 0:23:46.080 --> 0:23:48.000 Are I don't know another. 0:23:47.720 --> 0:23:51.840 Quarterback that come in and ad lib Zach Taylor's offense. 0:23:52.200 --> 0:23:55.320 That's the challenge that's obviously we saw that was the 0:23:55.400 --> 0:23:59.360 challenge with Jake Browning because people ask why wasn't Jake 0:23:59.400 --> 0:24:02.919 Browning and twenty five like he was in seven starts 0:24:02.960 --> 0:24:09.000 in twenty twenty three because the offense evolves and again 0:24:09.440 --> 0:24:13.080 he cannot. He does not have the time to process 0:24:13.119 --> 0:24:15.639 that he had in twenty twenty three. He just didn't 0:24:15.640 --> 0:24:18.320 have the time this year. And we'll find out whether 0:24:18.400 --> 0:24:21.520 or not again if Joe Flacco can pick things up 0:24:22.119 --> 0:24:23.960 fast enough to be effective. 0:24:24.000 --> 0:24:26.280 On Sunday, take a time out to continue more and 0:24:26.480 --> 0:24:30.200 more good stuff with Trags. We're at Longnecks in Ridgewood, Cincinnati. 0:24:30.240 --> 0:24:33.159 Tax Resolution Power by Tope Sheldon Round Table Show presented 0:24:33.160 --> 0:24:40.440 by Postman Law seven hundred WLW rolling right along through 0:24:40.440 --> 0:24:43.679 the first hour, first of three tonight from Long Necks 0:24:43.760 --> 0:24:48.160 in Richwood.

That is 0:25:13.920 --> 0:25:17.040 our Driveway Dumpster's drive of the game, and we'll review 0:25:17.080 --> 0:25:19.080 last week's defensive play of the game.

I read all the letters correctly. 0:25:37.760 --> 0:25:39.200 Anything I can do to help play. 0:25:39.280 --> 0:25:41.040 I pronounced the name of the law firm and their 0:25:41.040 --> 0:25:46.199 website very smoothly and efficiently. And our defensive don't confuse me. 0:25:46.720 --> 0:25:49.119 I'll blow it. I'll blow it. You keep pushing me 0:25:49.880 --> 0:25:51.840 our defensive play of the game. We'll go with Trey 0:25:51.880 --> 0:25:56.680 Hendrickson the stripsack and fumbletray had a big game on Sunday. 0:25:57.200 --> 0:26:00.199 Little things into bigger things. First, you tweeted a great 0:26:00.280 --> 0:26:03.200 photo today the owner met the quarterback. 0:26:03.560 --> 0:26:04.400 Yes he did. 0:26:05.440 --> 0:26:11.080 Joe Flacco spent about i'd say five to six seven 0:26:11.119 --> 0:26:14.600 minutes just chatting up Mike Brown. And look, Mike Brown 0:26:14.720 --> 0:26:19.320 was animated, and it's always good to see Mike animated 0:26:19.520 --> 0:26:22.720 and into it. Look, you say what you will about 0:26:22.720 --> 0:26:25.720 Mike Brown, criticize him all you want. He's the top 0:26:25.760 --> 0:26:28.280 boss of the Bengals, and he bears the brunt of 0:26:28.280 --> 0:26:31.520 a lot of fans frustration. I get that there is 0:26:31.600 --> 0:26:35.600 not an owner in the National Football League who is 0:26:35.640 --> 0:26:40.080 more engaged or cares about his team and shows up 0:26:40.119 --> 0:26:43.680 at every practice more than Mike Brown. And I think 0:26:43.760 --> 0:26:48.119 he'd he is ninety one glance think about that, and 0:26:48.160 --> 0:26:53.000 he's showing up at football practice on a random October 0:26:53.080 --> 0:26:56.560 day in week number six of the NFL season. He 0:26:56.680 --> 0:27:00.120 sits on his golf course a golf cart and heat 0:27:00.240 --> 0:27:04.199 his practice. He's attentive, he sticks around for the entire practice. 0:27:04.520 --> 0:27:08.080 He chats up players here and there. Not often he doesn't, 0:27:08.119 --> 0:27:11.159 but today was a special occasion. The new quarterback that 0:27:11.280 --> 0:27:14.800 he hopes is coming in to help save the season 0:27:14.920 --> 0:27:19.399 until Joe Burrow can return. I thought it was quintessential 0:27:19.600 --> 0:27:20.200 Mike Brown. 0:27:20.680 --> 0:27:24.560 You're around and have been around Jake Browning every day. 0:27:24.600 --> 0:27:26.640 This is going to be a difficult week for him, obviously, 0:27:26.640 --> 0:27:28.879 with all that has happened to him. Yes, he talked. 0:27:28.960 --> 0:27:32.840 Give me a sense of how he's processing all of this. 0:27:33.200 --> 0:27:34.119 That's a great question. 0:27:34.240 --> 0:27:37.119 And I actually went up on my own today to 0:27:37.240 --> 0:27:42.200 Jake to compliment him on how he handled it on 0:27:42.320 --> 0:27:45.800 Wednesday with all of the news coming down, and he 0:27:45.960 --> 0:27:49.600 was ticked off. He admitted he was ticked off. The 0:27:49.640 --> 0:27:52.760 team told him on Monday that they were searching for 0:27:52.800 --> 0:27:56.240 a quarterback. The trade was made Tuesday, Wednesday, he started 0:27:56.240 --> 0:27:59.879 immediately onboarding with Joe Flacco, who, by the way, is 0:28:00.119 --> 0:28:04.119 locker to his immediate left. So we're asking all of 0:28:04.119 --> 0:28:07.720 these questions on Wednesday of Jake Browning, how does it feel? 0:28:08.200 --> 0:28:11.240 Have you ever been through anything like this? How can 0:28:11.280 --> 0:28:13.800 you come back? What can you learn? And Joe For 0:28:13.960 --> 0:28:16.720 half of the interview, not the entire interview, but half 0:28:16.720 --> 0:28:19.840 of the interview. The first half, Joe Flacco's right there, 0:28:20.080 --> 0:28:23.560 And eventually I'm sure Flacco picked up the smoke signals 0:28:23.560 --> 0:28:25.320 and was like, I need to clear out of here 0:28:25.359 --> 0:28:28.240 and give the man some dignity, some space to answer 0:28:28.280 --> 0:28:31.960 these questions without me hovering over him. I'm sure that 0:28:32.040 --> 0:28:38.360 went through Flacco's mind. So anyway, and Browning was very frank. 0:28:38.480 --> 0:28:42.480 He said, look, I take responsibility for the eight interceptions 0:28:42.480 --> 0:28:46.520 and only six touchdown passes, but I wasn't the only reason. 0:28:46.880 --> 0:28:49.920 He said it in so many words, and he's like, 0:28:50.280 --> 0:28:53.760 I'd like to think that there are other factors that 0:28:53.840 --> 0:28:58.520 contributed to our offense gaining less than two hundred yards 0:28:58.560 --> 0:29:02.360 and two of my three starts. And certainly he's referring 0:29:02.360 --> 0:29:05.959 to the fact that the offensive line struggled. They couldn't 0:29:06.040 --> 0:29:08.480 run the ball, and when you have those two factors 0:29:08.560 --> 0:29:10.320 thrown into the mix, it's going. 0:29:10.240 --> 0:29:12.840 To be hard for any quarterback to be successful. 0:29:12.960 --> 0:29:17.120 So, yeah, he was letting everybody know he understands that 0:29:17.240 --> 0:29:21.479 he played poorly, but there were other factors outside of 0:29:21.480 --> 0:29:25.520 his control that impacted the poor offensive production. 0:29:26.200 --> 0:29:29.440 Sunday, they trail fourteen to three at the half. They'd 0:29:29.520 --> 0:29:33.200 run it seven times, had thrown it twenty three times. 0:29:34.240 --> 0:29:37.320 They averaged four point three yards of carrie. And my 0:29:37.400 --> 0:29:39.120 thought was at the half and I'm looking at the 0:29:39.120 --> 0:29:41.040 stats and I say, wait a minute. One team is 0:29:41.040 --> 0:29:43.680 ahead fourteen to three and they've thrown it and passed 0:29:43.680 --> 0:29:46.040 it or run it fifteen times each. The other team 0:29:46.080 --> 0:29:48.120 is only down by eleven. They've only run it seven 0:29:48.160 --> 0:29:53.000 times and successfully in those seven times. Is there a 0:29:53.040 --> 0:29:55.480 fair argument to be made They may not be running 0:29:55.480 --> 0:29:58.720 it well, but there's moments they do that they don't 0:29:59.280 --> 0:30:01.200 continue that path. 0:30:01.400 --> 0:30:03.760 Okay, I'm gonna go back to the first drive of 0:30:03.800 --> 0:30:08.480 the season. Lands remember what happened. It was and they 0:30:08.640 --> 0:30:10.800 rammed it right down the throat of one of the 0:30:10.800 --> 0:30:13.719 best defensive lines in the National Football League. 0:30:13.960 --> 0:30:14.880 What happened to that? 0:30:15.120 --> 0:30:17.240 Where was the desire? Where was the drive? 0:30:17.360 --> 0:30:17.640 Now? 0:30:17.960 --> 0:30:21.520 I will grant you that Lucas Patrick, who was one 0:30:21.560 --> 0:30:26.080 of the best run blocking offensive guards in the NFL, 0:30:26.200 --> 0:30:29.920 went down with injury. But that doesn't mean you just say, well, 0:30:30.200 --> 0:30:33.400 screw it, we can't run the ball anymore. No, you 0:30:33.720 --> 0:30:38.200 find a way, Dalton Rise. Every guard loves to run block, 0:30:38.240 --> 0:30:40.320 every offensive lineman loves to run block. 0:30:40.880 --> 0:30:42.840 But running is an attitude. 0:30:43.400 --> 0:30:48.120 And what happens is when one of or two offensive 0:30:48.160 --> 0:30:53.080 linemen go down, the Bengals retreat if you will to 0:30:53.160 --> 0:30:57.320 what uh Zach Taylor's mo O and his DNA is 0:30:57.400 --> 0:31:01.320 football DNA, and that's throwing the ball all over the field. Well, 0:31:01.440 --> 0:31:03.880 that's great if you have Joe Burrow. It's not so 0:31:04.000 --> 0:31:07.720 great if you have a backup quarterback with no offensive 0:31:07.760 --> 0:31:11.280 line protection and no run game to speak of. 0:31:11.400 --> 0:31:12.320 To keep them honest. 0:31:12.720 --> 0:31:16.600 Before last week, dead last in the NFL in both 0:31:17.280 --> 0:31:21.239 yards per game and yards per carry, and teams know that. 0:31:21.320 --> 0:31:22.560 And that's why I'm saying. 0:31:22.600 --> 0:31:26.240 You know, yes, the Bengals gained whatever it was, seventy 0:31:26.320 --> 0:31:29.480 yards on ten carries or something like that last week. 0:31:29.520 --> 0:31:31.560 I don't have the numbers in front of me. But 0:31:32.440 --> 0:31:35.680 that's terrific. But if I'm the Green Bay Packers again, 0:31:35.960 --> 0:31:38.800 I throw the kitchen sink. I bring Micah Parsons from 0:31:38.920 --> 0:31:43.960 every gap possible and then some and force the Bengals 0:31:44.000 --> 0:31:49.440 to show them that they're either going to have maximum 0:31:49.440 --> 0:31:52.520 protection every single snap, which might be the case, or 0:31:52.640 --> 0:31:55.520 they're going to become a legitimate fifty to fifty or 0:31:55.680 --> 0:31:58.960 fifty five forty five run pass team. 0:32:00.080 --> 0:32:04.480 Thought all things considered, opponent, offensive quality, the opponent, the 0:32:04.600 --> 0:32:09.400 score at that moment, the defense. I mean, I can't 0:32:09.480 --> 0:32:11.400 rail on what the defense did. I kind of felt 0:32:11.440 --> 0:32:14.440 sorry for the defense at times. Is there progress you 0:32:14.440 --> 0:32:16.959 were seeing that's being made by this defense. 0:32:17.040 --> 0:32:20.480 Al Golden spoke to us on Wednesday, that would be yesterday, 0:32:20.640 --> 0:32:24.080 and he said, I can sense that the guys are 0:32:24.160 --> 0:32:28.040 coming together more and more every week. They are understanding 0:32:28.080 --> 0:32:31.280 what the calls are. They're playing a lot of rookies, 0:32:31.520 --> 0:32:36.360 Schamar Stewart's injury aside. They are playing, obviously Barrett Carter 0:32:36.720 --> 0:32:40.440 and Demetrious Knight Junior, two guys that I don't think 0:32:40.440 --> 0:32:43.840 they figured Barrett Carter would be playing as much as 0:32:43.840 --> 0:32:47.040 he has. But because they've gone with a base defense, 0:32:47.080 --> 0:32:51.280 which is the four defensive down lineman, and then you 0:32:51.400 --> 0:32:54.720 have three linebackers in there, one of which can play 0:32:55.000 --> 0:32:57.520 like a Demetrius Knight play on the line of scrimmage. 0:32:58.280 --> 0:33:01.720 You need that many linebackers to be able to play 0:33:01.800 --> 0:33:05.160 and whatnot. And I think they've gotten a lot out 0:33:05.200 --> 0:33:09.040 of those rookie linebackers and they've been very, very good. 0:33:09.240 --> 0:33:13.880 They need Shamar Stewart on the field Sunday. I understand 0:33:14.320 --> 0:33:17.280 that it's a short week next week with the Steelers. 0:33:17.640 --> 0:33:20.479 They need Shamar Stewart to be an impact. They know 0:33:20.640 --> 0:33:23.400 that if he's on the field, he can be not 0:33:23.440 --> 0:33:26.080 only on defense, but on special teams. We've seen all 0:33:26.080 --> 0:33:29.400 the block kicks all around the NFL this year. He 0:33:29.520 --> 0:33:32.080 can be one of those guys for the Bengals and 0:33:32.520 --> 0:33:34.640 they need him on the field. The one drive that 0:33:34.720 --> 0:33:37.800 disappointed me last week. Bengals have made it twenty eight 0:33:37.840 --> 0:33:41.800 to seventeen, and it was a game, yes, and they 0:33:41.840 --> 0:33:44.600 allowed the Lions to march right down the field with 0:33:44.720 --> 0:33:48.440 very little resistance. Maybe they were worn out, maybe they 0:33:48.600 --> 0:33:52.960 just reverted to form, but they need there's still more 0:33:53.080 --> 0:33:55.160 consistency to be had on that defense. 0:33:55.360 --> 0:33:57.440 Two questions will run a two minute drill. Let me 0:33:57.800 --> 0:33:59.400 do the second one first because I don't want to 0:33:59.440 --> 0:34:01.920 lose time on it. Layout for those listening, how they 0:34:01.960 --> 0:34:04.920 can read, watch and follow everything you were offering each 0:34:05.000 --> 0:34:08.080 day both Bengals and even reads related online. 0:34:08.120 --> 0:34:10.480 Cl and s Sincy with a y dot com have 0:34:10.560 --> 0:34:13.359 a column up there right now about Jake Browning and 0:34:13.360 --> 0:34:16.600 his great grands yep and Ted Kara is playing for 0:34:16.680 --> 0:34:20.279 yet another experienced Super Bowl caliber quarterback, so that's up 0:34:20.320 --> 0:34:25.160 there now. The Jungle War postgame pod and also all 0:34:25.239 --> 0:34:29.080 of the audio and video from the locker room that 0:34:29.280 --> 0:34:32.640 is on my YouTube channel Jungle War Pod at YouTube 0:34:32.640 --> 0:34:36.560 dot com and then online there's a lot of locker 0:34:36.640 --> 0:34:39.960 room reaction today and from the podium of Jamar Chase 0:34:40.040 --> 0:34:43.880 and t Higgins. That's up on my x page at Trags. 0:34:44.000 --> 0:34:45.759 Tr Ags. 0:34:46.000 --> 0:34:48.480 You were in on the season wrap up with the 0:34:48.560 --> 0:34:50.520 Nick Kral and Brad Metter earlier in the week. A 0:34:50.600 --> 0:34:53.440 number of talking points coming out of that. What anything 0:34:53.719 --> 0:34:56.200 anything jump out to you or give But in closing, 0:34:56.440 --> 0:34:58.719 maybe a thought on something that came out of that 0:34:59.000 --> 0:34:59.720 earlier in the week. 0:35:00.280 --> 0:35:02.880 Need to come up with some better hitters in the 0:35:02.880 --> 0:35:06.279 middle of the lineups, and they don't have a budget yet, 0:35:06.680 --> 0:35:10.240 but they need They know they need to be better situationally, 0:35:10.400 --> 0:35:13.400 they know they need more power in Great American Ballpark. 0:35:13.719 --> 0:35:16.080 They're tired of seeing other teams come in and hit 0:35:16.120 --> 0:35:19.680 home runs. And the Reds you've seen Atlance. They some 0:35:19.719 --> 0:35:22.760 weeks they turn into the big Red Machine. Other weeks 0:35:22.800 --> 0:35:26.919 they're the little Red Wagon. Remember that great and late 0:35:27.120 --> 0:35:30.279 I meany rest in peace, Dave Parker. But that's they 0:35:30.280 --> 0:35:32.640 want to get away from that. They want to be 0:35:33.000 --> 0:35:36.759 more like the Milwaukee Brewers and the Philadelphia Phillies, the 0:35:36.880 --> 0:35:41.600 LA Dodgers, teams that consistently put pressure on opposing pictures. 0:35:41.640 --> 0:35:44.399 So uh, and I think that starts in the minor 0:35:44.480 --> 0:35:49.080 leagues frankly. But what the other big takeaway is they 0:35:49.120 --> 0:35:52.520 have a lot of decisions to make on which players 0:35:52.560 --> 0:35:56.240 are going to play which positions. That's to me, probably 0:35:56.280 --> 0:35:58.880 the biggest takeaway. And you've got to figure out what 0:35:58.960 --> 0:36:01.359 are you going to do with Spencer's year and Sal 0:36:01.440 --> 0:36:03.799 Stewart to start next season, what's that going to be, 0:36:04.719 --> 0:36:06.840 Who's gonna play left field? What are you gonna do 0:36:06.880 --> 0:36:09.719 with Austin Hayes, who is a free agent, he's probably gone. 0:36:10.040 --> 0:36:11.480 What are you gonna do with third base? 0:36:12.040 --> 0:36:12.160 Uh? 0:36:12.800 --> 0:36:18.279 You know, keep Brian or Sal Stewart there? What about centerfield? 0:36:18.320 --> 0:36:19.160 TJ? Friedel? 0:36:20.080 --> 0:36:22.000 I will tell you, and I'm not trying to read 0:36:22.040 --> 0:36:26.320 too much into this. They like TJ. Friedel, they didn't 0:36:26.680 --> 0:36:29.239 love the way he kind of wore down again at 0:36:29.239 --> 0:36:32.799 the end of the year. Not necessarily injury, just he 0:36:32.920 --> 0:36:36.719 wore down because J. Friedel is not a big guy, 0:36:37.320 --> 0:36:40.560 and God bless his heart, but guys like that can 0:36:40.600 --> 0:36:46.520 wear down, right, And Nick Crawl made reference to that. 0:36:46.719 --> 0:36:50.560 So what do you do in centerfield? And the Matt 0:36:50.640 --> 0:36:53.680 McLean's shoulder. It's got to be fully healthy next year. 0:36:53.760 --> 0:36:57.160 We all know that noelve Marte needs to take another 0:36:57.239 --> 0:37:00.359 step forward. They were very happy with that. And what 0:37:00.400 --> 0:37:03.480 to do with La Daily Cruz for now, he's your shortstop. 0:37:03.560 --> 0:37:04.280 Excellent stuff. 0:37:04.320 --> 0:37:06.879 As always, I really appreciate you making the trip out here. 0:37:06.920 --> 0:37:08.280 I really enjoyed the conversation. 0:37:08.440 --> 0:37:09.239 Thanks for dinner, Bud. 0:37:09.360 --> 0:37:10.560 You got it.

This is a treat on a 0:38:38.680 --> 0:38:40.839 night of phill Ins. Chad Brendle sent me a text 0:38:40.880 --> 0:38:44.080 this morning. He says, Hey, I my daughter's got a 0:38:44.160 --> 0:38:46.600 volleyball match and he is the PA voice of Simon 0:38:46.680 --> 0:38:49.960 Kenton Volleyball for his daughter. And I said, absolutely, totally understand. 0:38:50.160 --> 0:38:51.920 He said, how about Keegan? I said, I'd love to 0:38:51.960 --> 0:38:54.560 talk with Keegan nickoson so Lo and behold from Bearcat 0:38:54.640 --> 0:38:57.600 Journal dot com. We welcome in, said Keegan Nicholson. 0:38:57.680 --> 0:38:58.359 How are you. 0:39:00.320 --> 0:39:03.279 I'm doing excellent And anytime I can fill in for 0:39:03.360 --> 0:39:04.200 chatter is awesome. 0:39:04.400 --> 0:39:07.160 And you should tell him how he feels about But you. 0:39:07.120 --> 0:39:09.200 Should ask him how he feels about being the PA 0:39:09.239 --> 0:39:11.839 announcer for his daughter's volleyball team. 0:39:11.880 --> 0:39:14.440 I think it's probably his favorite job that he has. 0:39:15.120 --> 0:39:17.680 That is awesome, That is outstanding. All right, Let's get 0:39:17.719 --> 0:39:20.320 into some MUC football. Big win over Iowa State number fourteen. 0:39:20.400 --> 0:39:20.759 Last week. 0:39:20.800 --> 0:39:23.120 They won four straight big one coming up at Nippert 0:39:23.160 --> 0:39:26.680 Saturday against UCUP. Let's start first with this tag team 0:39:26.680 --> 0:39:29.400 of running backs they have, because man, you watched Tawie 0:39:29.400 --> 0:39:32.160 Walker and you watch Evan Pryor. They combined for two 0:39:32.280 --> 0:39:36.040 hundred on Saturday. What a dynamic duo that gives you 0:39:36.160 --> 0:39:37.080 all facets? 0:39:37.080 --> 0:39:38.600 Did you be looking for the run game? 0:39:40.560 --> 0:39:44.279 It really was the perfect microcosm of that Yin and 0:39:44.360 --> 0:39:47.680 Yang kind of situation because you start to gang with 0:39:47.719 --> 0:39:49.600 I think it was a thirty thirty five year and 0:39:49.680 --> 0:39:51.839 touchdown on a counter to Evan Pryor. 0:39:51.520 --> 0:39:53.600 Where he just ran all over. 0:39:54.920 --> 0:39:57.840 He just explosively right through the middle of the offense. 0:39:57.960 --> 0:40:02.000 And then Tawie Walker, I think he's number fourteen's legal 0:40:02.040 --> 0:40:03.320 guardian on Iowa State. 0:40:03.200 --> 0:40:04.920 Now for strutting him twice. 0:40:05.360 --> 0:40:09.040 And when we were talking with some offensive linemen on Tuesday, 0:40:09.640 --> 0:40:13.640 they said it was a good truck and they've never 0:40:13.680 --> 0:40:16.839 seen someone's feet come up in the air after getting hit, 0:40:17.320 --> 0:40:19.879 and that was kind of the most impressive part about it. 0:40:19.960 --> 0:40:23.319 And yeah, it's a great piece of the offense, and 0:40:23.360 --> 0:40:25.840 there's so many levels of that offense that are working 0:40:26.400 --> 0:40:29.160 so well right now. But having those two running backs, 0:40:29.719 --> 0:40:32.799 especially in this scheme that emphasizes his own run and 0:40:32.840 --> 0:40:35.880 wants to establish the run. It sets the entire offense 0:40:35.960 --> 0:40:37.960 up for some success. 0:40:38.600 --> 0:40:40.759 And as it's been said many times over the years, 0:40:40.800 --> 0:40:44.560 it all starts upfront that offensive line opening up holes 0:40:44.880 --> 0:40:48.000 and protecting Brendan Sorosby. And I don't know if people 0:40:48.000 --> 0:40:50.480 fully understand this in a city where we're always talking 0:40:50.520 --> 0:40:54.560 offensive line play and Bengals quarterbacks getting hit. Brendon Soorsby 0:40:54.600 --> 0:40:59.799 has been sacked one single time the entire season, which 0:40:59.880 --> 0:41:02.160 is hard to fathom in pretty damn it price it. 0:41:03.960 --> 0:41:06.000 Yeah, and the one time he was sacked, it was 0:41:06.080 --> 0:41:08.720 kind of a throwaway play where it was a boot 0:41:08.800 --> 0:41:11.040 to the right and the offensive lineman to the left 0:41:11.080 --> 0:41:12.960 and Kansas just called the. 0:41:12.960 --> 0:41:15.400 Perfect play and had a free runner at the quarterback. 0:41:16.200 --> 0:41:20.600 And I think he's only then actually hit period twice 0:41:20.640 --> 0:41:22.960 the entire season, and they were both against Kansas. 0:41:23.440 --> 0:41:25.640 And I think this team's. 0:41:25.280 --> 0:41:29.960 Ability to be really good in pass protection and really 0:41:30.000 --> 0:41:32.800 good and run blocking is kind. 0:41:32.640 --> 0:41:33.759 Of the most impressive thing. 0:41:33.800 --> 0:41:36.759 And Chad had brought it up multiple times. Usually you 0:41:36.800 --> 0:41:40.160 either get like really powerful, really strong run blockers that 0:41:40.239 --> 0:41:43.319 aren't that good and past pro because they're not finesse enough, 0:41:43.400 --> 0:41:45.360 or you get or it gets the inverse, and this 0:41:45.480 --> 0:41:48.760 team has both, and it's it's really Nick Cardwell, who 0:41:49.120 --> 0:41:52.000 he teaches violence at the point of attack. 0:41:52.120 --> 0:41:52.960 That's his big thing. 0:41:53.000 --> 0:41:56.040 Whether it's pass protection or it's run blocking, he wants 0:41:56.040 --> 0:41:59.440 his guys to be violent. They hit on Evan Tangsol, 0:41:59.560 --> 0:42:02.040 who was a true freshman in twenty twenty three. He 0:42:02.239 --> 0:42:05.319 developed into a good left guard. They hit on Tarantio, 0:42:05.360 --> 0:42:09.439 who's the right guard. They hit on Joe Potton, who 0:42:09.680 --> 0:42:13.200 is the left apple of South Dakota who's probably going 0:42:13.280 --> 0:42:16.640 to be an NFL draft pick after next season. And 0:42:16.680 --> 0:42:19.080 it's all working out. And DeAndre Biefford is probably the 0:42:19.080 --> 0:42:21.799 guy that's had the roughest season, But how rough can 0:42:21.800 --> 0:42:24.520 the season be when you've only allowed one SAT as. 0:42:24.400 --> 0:42:25.680 An entire offensive line. 0:42:25.760 --> 0:42:29.839 So I think the entire group is performing really, really well. 0:42:30.080 --> 0:42:32.800 Keegan nickoson check it in tonight from Bearcat Journal Bearcat 0:42:32.880 --> 0:42:34.080 Journal dot com, talking. 0:42:33.920 --> 0:42:34.760 You see football. 0:42:35.040 --> 0:42:37.840 Let me ask you a non x's and o's question 0:42:37.920 --> 0:42:40.160 about this team, and I'll be interested in your observation 0:42:40.239 --> 0:42:43.040 because mine from afar is that in a world of 0:42:43.160 --> 0:42:48.839 nil and portal and turnover chemistry, and pieces fitting can 0:42:48.880 --> 0:42:51.319 be difficult to come by. But man, every week when 0:42:51.360 --> 0:42:53.960 I'm driving home listening to the Scott Centerfield Show and 0:42:54.000 --> 0:42:55.960 I hear the players that are on the show, or 0:42:55.960 --> 0:42:59.160 I hear them in interviews, you do that seems like 0:42:59.280 --> 0:43:02.560 collectively a group that fits together. And I don't want 0:43:02.560 --> 0:43:06.560 to sound corny, but they enjoy being together. Is there 0:43:06.600 --> 0:43:09.400 something to that with this team? 0:43:09.640 --> 0:43:12.680 Yeah, definitely, And I think Tallie Walker he said it 0:43:12.760 --> 0:43:15.120 himself on Tuesday at the radio show. 0:43:15.239 --> 0:43:17.360 Someone asked them like, Hey, what's. 0:43:17.200 --> 0:43:20.640 The biggest differences or what are some similarities between here 0:43:20.680 --> 0:43:23.640 and Wisconson? And obviously it's a Cincinnati than He's trying 0:43:23.640 --> 0:43:25.719 to poke it them and say, hey, Luke Fickle is 0:43:25.760 --> 0:43:26.319 your head coach? 0:43:26.360 --> 0:43:27.240 What's different now? 0:43:27.760 --> 0:43:31.240 And he said plainly, he said, there is more belief 0:43:31.320 --> 0:43:33.680 and heart in this team, and it starts from the 0:43:33.719 --> 0:43:37.440 top up, from the top down with the leaders. But 0:43:37.960 --> 0:43:41.280 to say that and about having so much success here, 0:43:41.760 --> 0:43:44.400 I think he really really has to mean it and 0:43:44.520 --> 0:43:46.120 have the proof to be able to back it up 0:43:46.120 --> 0:43:47.319 because it's a. 0:43:47.360 --> 0:43:48.480 Very very bold plane. 0:43:49.600 --> 0:43:52.280 And I think one of those leaders is Brendan Soerby, 0:43:52.400 --> 0:43:54.759 who looks I love this dude's game. 0:43:54.960 --> 0:43:56.879 How he runs the ball, how he throws the ball. 0:43:57.200 --> 0:43:59.280 I love how he plays. He looks like he's having. 0:43:59.120 --> 0:44:03.120 Fun, but he's genuinely just a really really good dude. 0:44:03.320 --> 0:44:04.320 But he's a really. 0:44:04.080 --> 0:44:05.840 Really good human being that you would just want to 0:44:05.880 --> 0:44:10.160 sit down and have a conversation with. And the most 0:44:10.160 --> 0:44:12.840 impressive thing about him to me is after that last 0:44:12.880 --> 0:44:15.800 PCU game last year and they go five and seven, 0:44:16.320 --> 0:44:19.600 loose five straight, he was very, very quick to commit 0:44:19.640 --> 0:44:20.959 to coming back after the game. 0:44:21.080 --> 0:44:22.440 He could have said, you know, I want to keep 0:44:22.480 --> 0:44:23.200 my options open. 0:44:23.200 --> 0:44:25.120 I'm gonna talk with my agent and my parents and 0:44:25.120 --> 0:44:27.759 we'll see what happens. Because there were some schools coming 0:44:27.800 --> 0:44:30.640 after him. But he wants to win at Cincinnati. He 0:44:30.640 --> 0:44:33.759 wants to win for Scott Sadderfield, and that kind of 0:44:33.840 --> 0:44:37.040 leadership and that commitment kind of trickled down throughout the 0:44:37.200 --> 0:44:39.960 entire team on both sides of the ball. 0:44:40.040 --> 0:44:42.799 That may be the answer to my next question, but 0:44:42.840 --> 0:44:45.480 I'll ask it anyway. They beat Arizona State last year 0:44:45.480 --> 0:44:47.960 to get to five and two. I remember doing the topic, 0:44:48.239 --> 0:44:50.319 you know, has UC turned the corner? Are you buying 0:44:50.360 --> 0:44:53.799 into Scott's seta? They proceeded to not win another game 0:44:53.840 --> 0:44:56.959 the rest of the year. What is different about this 0:44:57.160 --> 0:45:01.360 addition to lead people to believe this is a legitimate turnaround. 0:45:01.400 --> 0:45:03.880 Is it more than what you just said about how 0:45:04.000 --> 0:45:05.920 well they play together and have been put together. 0:45:07.600 --> 0:45:11.280 The biggest thing for me, and it's really really plain, 0:45:11.840 --> 0:45:15.400 is their wide receivers are faster, and when you have 0:45:15.719 --> 0:45:19.479 a quarterback like Brendan Sourbey, when you have three wide 0:45:19.520 --> 0:45:22.120 receivers who can stretch the field, it opens up so 0:45:22.280 --> 0:45:25.759 much to the playbook for Scott Saderfield, who's that offensive 0:45:25.840 --> 0:45:27.600 mind and the guy that wants to call the plays. 0:45:28.080 --> 0:45:31.759 Last year they had good wide receivers. Tony Johnson got 0:45:31.760 --> 0:45:34.680 a big payday to go to Miami. Jamoynees made the 0:45:34.680 --> 0:45:37.960 Bengals roster. Xavier Henderson was there one and he had 0:45:38.000 --> 0:45:40.480 some lank and a little bit of speed. But what 0:45:40.520 --> 0:45:42.600 they were finding is that teams are just keen in 0:45:42.760 --> 0:45:46.480 on Joe Royer and then like daring the receivers to 0:45:46.600 --> 0:45:48.800 try to get open, and it just wasn't working in 0:45:48.840 --> 0:45:51.120 the last half of the season. So now that you 0:45:51.160 --> 0:45:53.960 have Cyrus Allen and now that you have Caleb Goodie, 0:45:53.960 --> 0:45:56.560 who are all guys that have had multiple explicit plays. 0:45:56.600 --> 0:45:59.320 He saw the goodie posts that he had opened against 0:45:59.320 --> 0:46:02.319 Iowa State actually opened three times on the play and 0:46:02.320 --> 0:46:03.879 you only hit him once. He could have had three 0:46:03.920 --> 0:46:07.520 touchdowns and maybe two hundred yards receiving on that day. 0:46:07.600 --> 0:46:09.879 But it's really really plain. 0:46:10.280 --> 0:46:13.560 I think the offensive line is obviously really good thing, 0:46:13.640 --> 0:46:15.359 and that you have so much turnover him that they're 0:46:15.400 --> 0:46:17.000 still good. But if I had to point to the 0:46:17.120 --> 0:46:19.040 number one reason they'd be different, it's. 0:46:18.920 --> 0:46:21.359 That they have some burners on the outside. 0:46:21.000 --> 0:46:23.279 And a really really good quarterback has taken that year 0:46:23.320 --> 0:46:25.080 two jump to give them the ball. 0:46:25.800 --> 0:46:28.839 What do you see fans need to know about UCF 0:46:28.880 --> 0:46:29.520 for Saturday? 0:46:31.640 --> 0:46:37.760 Oh, that's a great question. The quarterback situation thing. Tavan 0:46:37.920 --> 0:46:42.160 Jackson is their number one guy. I think Jakari Brown 0:46:42.280 --> 0:46:43.920 started the season as their number. 0:46:43.680 --> 0:46:45.440 One that Tavin Jackson quickly came in. 0:46:46.040 --> 0:46:50.240 They are both kind of questionable right now. So Cam 0:46:50.320 --> 0:46:52.520 Fancher I think played the majority of the game for 0:46:52.760 --> 0:46:56.200 against Kansas last week. Tavin Jackson le's up an injury. 0:46:57.239 --> 0:46:59.520 I think Jafari Brown is kind of expected to be back. 0:46:59.560 --> 0:47:01.919 Tavin j Acting is more of an actual question mark. 0:47:02.360 --> 0:47:06.000 But if Tavian Jackson plays. I would expect to see 0:47:06.040 --> 0:47:09.239 a very very motivated Brendan Sowersby because while those who 0:47:09.280 --> 0:47:11.000 are really close and they're great friends from their time 0:47:11.040 --> 0:47:14.640 in Indiana, Tavin Jackson beat Sooresby out in the quarterback 0:47:14.680 --> 0:47:18.080 competition before that twenty twenty three season, the last year 0:47:18.120 --> 0:47:22.120 of Tom Allen in Indiana, So I'm expecting to Seetwarsby 0:47:22.200 --> 0:47:24.000 one of them maybe put up three hundred, three hundred 0:47:24.000 --> 0:47:28.399 fifty yards. There's a lot of speed on this UCF team. 0:47:28.440 --> 0:47:31.440 I think Scott Saderfield pointed it out that look, if 0:47:31.640 --> 0:47:35.080 if you're recruiting guys from Florida, they're fast, like it's 0:47:35.120 --> 0:47:37.760 all over the state. The guys from Florida are fast 0:47:38.280 --> 0:47:42.000 their dns and their defensive tackles or even twitchy. So 0:47:42.160 --> 0:47:44.600 I'm looking forward to seeing the battle up front for 0:47:44.680 --> 0:47:47.600 this uc offensive line going at the four man front, 0:47:47.920 --> 0:47:50.600 a lot of talented ed rushers, and then they've got 0:47:50.600 --> 0:47:52.400 speed all over the field. So it should be a 0:47:52.440 --> 0:47:56.600 pretty good game. I think if you can throw on them, 0:47:56.760 --> 0:47:58.600 it should be over. And if you can, if you 0:47:58.640 --> 0:48:02.680 can protect Brendan Sowerby keeping away from turnovers, UC should. 0:48:02.440 --> 0:48:05.719 Have no issue coming out with a deciding whim. 0:48:06.480 --> 0:48:09.200 I believe this is current information from what I saw 0:48:09.280 --> 0:48:12.640 Chad tweet earlier today. Currently, this is the last day 0:48:12.640 --> 0:48:15.080 of a chance to get sixty percent off a full 0:48:15.160 --> 0:48:18.200 year of Bearcat Journal Bearcat Journal dot com.

Is this thing on? 0:50:04.920 --> 0:50:08.759 Yes, Long Mexan Ridgewood, presented by Postma Law Alliance McAllister 0:50:08.960 --> 0:50:11.160 nine o'clock tonight, let's see Thursday night. That's going to 0:50:11.239 --> 0:50:13.879 be Dan Carroll. I do believe we've got so much 0:50:13.920 --> 0:50:18.520 to get to between now and then. Much conversation about 0:50:18.520 --> 0:50:21.600 this week about the quarterback position, one out, one in 0:50:21.920 --> 0:50:25.680 out is Jake Browning, who two years ago went four 0:50:25.719 --> 0:50:30.480 and three taking over for Joe Burrow one twice in overtime, 0:50:30.920 --> 0:50:34.440 was the AFC Offensive Player of the Week. Completed thirty 0:50:34.600 --> 0:50:37.279 two of thirty seven for three hundred and fifty four 0:50:37.360 --> 0:50:40.200 yards against Jacksonville two years ago in the win. This year, 0:50:40.239 --> 0:50:45.280 different story. Interceptions were up, missed opportunities down the field 0:50:45.480 --> 0:50:49.520 and now out. On Bengals Game Plan Wednesday Night, Down 0:50:49.520 --> 0:50:52.120 the Dial on ESPN fifteen thirty, Dan Horne and Dave 0:50:52.200 --> 0:50:56.680 Lapham talked about what transpired. Would Jake Browning take a listen. 0:50:59.360 --> 0:51:01.360 When they looked at game tape they didn't like what 0:51:01.400 --> 0:51:05.520 they saw, you know, and and Zach Taylor and Dan Pitcher, 0:51:06.640 --> 0:51:11.000 they all other position coaches must have felt like, we 0:51:11.120 --> 0:51:14.040 have to do something because there are players to be 0:51:14.120 --> 0:51:16.719 made out there and we're not making them. We're going 0:51:16.760 --> 0:51:19.560 to make a move there unfortunately, and see if it 0:51:19.600 --> 0:51:20.600 makes a difference for us. 0:51:21.000 --> 0:51:24.040 So when Jake Browning threw three touchdown passes in the 0:51:24.080 --> 0:51:26.720 fourth quarter last week and led the Bengals on touchdown 0:51:26.800 --> 0:51:29.640 drives on three straight series, I thought to my sayf okay, 0:51:30.120 --> 0:51:33.160 this is the guy that we saw two years ago. 0:51:33.920 --> 0:51:36.359 Maybe this is a sign that he can get it 0:51:36.400 --> 0:51:39.680 going and you know, still hold things in check until 0:51:39.760 --> 0:51:43.120 Joe Burrow hopefully comes back. Then I heard him at 0:51:43.120 --> 0:51:46.920 his postgame news conference after the game, and he was 0:51:47.280 --> 0:51:50.880 so in his own head, you know, worried about costing 0:51:50.920 --> 0:51:53.520 the team the game. And yeah, I mean, the interception's hurt. 0:51:53.680 --> 0:51:56.720 But when I heard that, my mind kind of changed 0:51:56.719 --> 0:51:59.600 to thinking, I'm not sure that he's going to be 0:51:59.600 --> 0:52:01.319 able to get out of this anytime soon. 0:52:01.719 --> 0:52:05.280 Yeah. I think when guys do that, it's tough. 0:52:05.760 --> 0:52:08.719 It's tough to turn the worm, you know, it's tough 0:52:08.760 --> 0:52:12.759 to work yourself out of that kind of football depression. 0:52:12.920 --> 0:52:16.360 You know, as such, you know, you look at tape 0:52:16.360 --> 0:52:18.960 out for the game, it's like you're kicking yourself in 0:52:19.040 --> 0:52:21.080 the butt, you know, Oh my god, how did I 0:52:21.160 --> 0:52:21.600 miss that? 0:52:22.200 --> 0:52:22.439 Yeah? 0:52:22.480 --> 0:52:25.680 I think it was just in his own head to 0:52:25.719 --> 0:52:28.600 the point of, like I said, the bottom falling out 0:52:28.640 --> 0:52:31.880 and what do you do as coaches? Well, Zach Taylor 0:52:31.880 --> 0:52:36.399 and the organization decided Joe Flacco to make the call 0:52:36.440 --> 0:52:40.240 to Cleveland. Cleveland's willing to make the trade still stunning 0:52:40.280 --> 0:52:42.080 to me. Can't believe it. 0:52:44.360 --> 0:52:47.200 Dave Lapham Dan Horde last night on Bengals Game Plan 0:52:47.280 --> 0:52:50.040 about what transpired with Jake Browning and what has led 0:52:50.080 --> 0:52:53.400 to now Joe Flacco assuming the starting quarterback role for 0:52:53.440 --> 0:52:58.600 the Cincinnati Bengals. Zach yesterday talked about the components, the 0:52:59.160 --> 0:53:01.640 parts of Joel's game that he likes and kind of 0:53:01.920 --> 0:53:05.600 walked us through the process of getting him ready. Here's 0:53:05.719 --> 0:53:07.640 Zach on his new starting quarterback. 0:53:08.400 --> 0:53:09.160 He's a great pastor. 0:53:09.400 --> 0:53:11.239 Again, we've we've got to expand all areas of our 0:53:11.239 --> 0:53:13.239 offense to be better, to be able to efficient run 0:53:13.280 --> 0:53:15.239 the football, protect all that kind of stuff. But the 0:53:15.360 --> 0:53:17.239 number one trait you're looking for is a guy that 0:53:17.280 --> 0:53:19.799 can operate your system into the football. And Joe has 0:53:19.800 --> 0:53:22.320 always been a tremendous passer in this league and I 0:53:22.360 --> 0:53:25.200 have seen it, and so now we've got treminous weapons 0:53:25.200 --> 0:53:27.120 that he can he can play around, and so I'm 0:53:27.120 --> 0:53:28.040 excited to watch him do it. 0:53:28.480 --> 0:53:30.359 Yes, he looked like, what time did he get here? 0:53:30.360 --> 0:53:31.880 What were you guys able to do last night to 0:53:31.880 --> 0:53:32.520 get ahead to start? 0:53:33.000 --> 0:53:35.240 Well, we talked on the phone while he drove. 0:53:35.320 --> 0:53:37.720 We had something to drive him, he and his wife 0:53:37.800 --> 0:53:40.440 from Cleveland, and so we were able to send him 0:53:40.480 --> 0:53:43.000 the information to study, talked to him on the phone 0:53:43.000 --> 0:53:45.359 as he drove down, gave him a break, let him 0:53:45.440 --> 0:53:47.279 then come in facility, and we got a chance to 0:53:47.320 --> 0:53:47.840 meet last night. 0:53:47.880 --> 0:53:49.319 And at this one, do you. 0:53:49.280 --> 0:53:53.160 Feel like trading for Flacco helps promote some hope and 0:53:53.200 --> 0:53:54.960 some confidence to the season as a whole. 0:53:55.480 --> 0:53:57.640 I think everyone's just seen him been there, do that, 0:53:57.800 --> 0:53:59.480 you know, and won a Super Bowl and won a 0:53:59.520 --> 0:54:01.319 lot of games and been successful in a lot of 0:54:01.320 --> 0:54:02.000 different places. 0:54:02.040 --> 0:54:03.880 And I can't speak for other. 0:54:03.760 --> 0:54:05.600 People, but when you bring a guy in here with 0:54:05.640 --> 0:54:07.560 that experience and those skins on the wall, I think 0:54:07.560 --> 0:54:09.640 it's it's significant and it can mean something to guys, 0:54:09.680 --> 0:54:11.040 but they'd have to speak for themselves somehow. 0:54:11.680 --> 0:54:14.680 And then Joe's age, maybe some of the mobility insurance 0:54:14.680 --> 0:54:15.399 that commonly day. 0:54:15.800 --> 0:54:17.880 How do you, as a play caller and the architect 0:54:17.880 --> 0:54:18.880 of the offense. 0:54:18.840 --> 0:54:20.200 Work through some of those challenge Yeah? 0:54:20.200 --> 0:54:22.440 I mean I can't speak for Joe to say that 0:54:22.480 --> 0:54:25.080 mobility was ever his number one strength, dating back to 0:54:25.080 --> 0:54:27.080 when I would a coach against him in twenty twelve 0:54:27.120 --> 0:54:28.799 and thirteen, I don't know that we were ever worried 0:54:28.800 --> 0:54:31.160 about Joe breaking free for a fifteen yard game. So 0:54:31.560 --> 0:54:33.040 I think his placetolf has been in his place all 0:54:33.080 --> 0:54:36.440 for a long time, and I'm perfectly fine with that. Obviously, 0:54:36.480 --> 0:54:37.840 we got to do a great job around him in 0:54:37.880 --> 0:54:39.239 the run game and protection and all that. 0:54:39.200 --> 0:54:39.680 Kind of stuff. 0:54:39.719 --> 0:54:42.600 But he understands, he understands our concepts already. It's a 0:54:42.640 --> 0:54:44.960 lot of things he's done, some things he's called the same, 0:54:45.440 --> 0:54:49.440 So again, we'll do it suits him best ultimately at 0:54:49.440 --> 0:54:51.200 the end of the week when he's not comfortable with 0:54:51.400 --> 0:54:53.480 there's some things we've called during the week that you know, 0:54:53.719 --> 0:54:55.000 we should put on the shelf. 0:54:56.920 --> 0:55:01.560 Zach Taylor yesterday talking about the arrival and implementation of 0:55:01.680 --> 0:55:05.040 Joe Flacco as the starting quarterback on this team. Let's 0:55:05.080 --> 0:55:07.560 take a look at the Postman Law injury report delivered 0:55:07.560 --> 0:55:12.000 by Postman Law. Injured Postman delivered Dylan Fairchild did not 0:55:12.200 --> 0:55:14.919 practice today dealing with the knee that's not good. Drew 0:55:15.040 --> 0:55:19.120 Sample did not practice with the ankle. One packer note 0:55:19.360 --> 0:55:24.480 of interest, Brandon McManus, their kicker injured his quad yesterday, 0:55:24.600 --> 0:55:30.520 did not practice today. There is certainly questions around his 0:55:30.640 --> 0:55:33.040 status for Sunday. They do have a kicker on the 0:55:33.080 --> 0:55:36.919 practice squad and Matt Leffluer also saying today there would 0:55:36.920 --> 0:55:40.120 be an option of signing somebody as well. That's kind 0:55:40.120 --> 0:55:43.399 of against the backdrop of a Packer special teams unit 0:55:43.440 --> 0:55:46.040 that has been really bad this year. They are thirtieth 0:55:46.040 --> 0:55:49.160 in the league in special teams. The last four years 0:55:49.640 --> 0:55:52.320 they have not been better than twenty sixth in the 0:55:52.400 --> 0:55:56.000 league in special teams. They had a trying to remember 0:55:56.000 --> 0:55:58.359 the sequence, here was a point after blocked last week 0:55:58.440 --> 0:56:02.400 return for two points. They had a field goal blocked 0:56:02.560 --> 0:56:06.080 in a game. They had multiple special team penalties in 0:56:06.120 --> 0:56:11.160 the Commander's game. They are allowing twelve yards per punt 0:56:11.200 --> 0:56:16.320 return this year while averaging just five yards per punt return, 0:56:16.719 --> 0:56:19.799 and they're allowing twenty eight yards per kick return. It 0:56:19.840 --> 0:56:23.960 has been a mess, borderline disaster for the Packers from 0:56:23.960 --> 0:56:24.680 that side of things. 0:56:24.680 --> 0:56:27.200 Who keep that in mind this weekend. 0:56:26.960 --> 0:56:29.879 And all of this said, and all of this change 0:56:29.920 --> 0:56:31.600 that has taken place with the Bengals, I'm going to 0:56:31.680 --> 0:56:34.080 go back to this again. We talked about it last night. 0:56:35.000 --> 0:56:38.279 It may not feel like it the way the last 0:56:38.320 --> 0:56:41.040 three games have looked. Three points in the first half 0:56:41.040 --> 0:56:43.520 in each of the last three games. The reality is 0:56:44.080 --> 0:56:47.440 the Bengals enterplay this weekend two and three in the 0:56:47.480 --> 0:56:49.240 AFC North, one game back. 0:56:49.120 --> 0:56:50.240 Of the Pittsburgh Steelers. 0:56:50.480 --> 0:56:53.000 Pittsburgh at three and one, the Bengals at two and three, 0:56:53.120 --> 0:56:55.520 the Ravens at one and four, the Browns at one 0:56:55.560 --> 0:56:58.120 and four, so clearly the division is still in play. 0:56:58.280 --> 0:57:00.920 Two more meetings against the Steelers, including one on the 0:57:01.000 --> 0:57:03.480 quick turnaround next week, two more against the Ravens, who've 0:57:03.480 --> 0:57:06.200 allowed one hundred and seventy seven points this year, with 0:57:06.320 --> 0:57:09.840 questions surrounding the status of their defensive coordinator, and in 0:57:09.880 --> 0:57:13.080 the big picture of the AFC in a seven team 0:57:13.160 --> 0:57:16.760 playoff field right now, the Patriots are the seventh seed 0:57:16.880 --> 0:57:19.160 at the moment at three and two. The Bengals are 0:57:19.160 --> 0:57:22.680 next to two and three. They're the eight seed, Texans 0:57:22.680 --> 0:57:25.400 are the nine seed, and the Chiefs are the ten seed. 0:57:26.080 --> 0:57:29.400 Both the Texans and Chiefs at two and three along 0:57:29.400 --> 0:57:31.600 with the Bengals, but the Bengals, based on seeding and 0:57:31.760 --> 0:57:36.520 current tiebreakers, positioned at number eight and a schedule with 0:57:36.640 --> 0:57:40.960 twelve games left that includes a total losing record combined 0:57:41.000 --> 0:57:43.840 of the opponent's remaining I think the remainings schedule, the 0:57:43.880 --> 0:57:46.920 twelve games left combined records is I'm going to say 0:57:47.120 --> 0:57:50.520 twenty three thirty two to one. And in fact, in 0:57:50.600 --> 0:57:55.680 their next four Green Bay, Pittsburgh, the Jets, and the Bears, 0:57:55.720 --> 0:58:00.920 those four teams combined seven nine and one games at 0:58:00.920 --> 0:58:05.640 this moment against six teams with losing records at this point. 0:58:05.720 --> 0:58:09.640 Now that's the reality of the situation. The other reality 0:58:09.680 --> 0:58:11.440 is the Bengals still have to figure out a way 0:58:11.680 --> 0:58:14.160 to put points on the board, protect Joe Flacco, find 0:58:14.160 --> 0:58:16.840 a way to run the football, and that begins on 0:58:16.920 --> 0:58:21.080 Sunday in historic lambeau Field. Still ahead, Let's turn the 0:58:21.080 --> 0:58:23.680 spotlight to high school football. Some big games circled it 0:58:23.760 --> 0:58:26.560 on the docket and on the radar of Greg Shoemaker 0:58:26.600 --> 0:58:28.960 from Tri Statefootball dot Com and the High School Football 0:58:28.960 --> 0:58:29.560 Tonight show. 0:58:29.760 --> 0:58:31.480 What do you say we do that? Next after we 0:58:31.600 --> 0:58:32.200 check news. 0:58:32.640 --> 0:58:35.640 This is the Cincinnati Tax Resolution Power by Tope Sheldon 0:58:35.720 --> 0:58:38.600 Roundtable Show Long next in Richwood.

Radium is the content 0:59:29.640 --> 0:59:32.880 manager of Tri State Football dot Com. Let's talk Week 0:59:33.000 --> 0:59:34.880 eight and welcome in, Greg Schuemaker. 0:59:34.920 --> 0:59:35.320 How are you? 0:59:36.680 --> 0:59:37.640 I am wonderful Lance. 0:59:37.680 --> 0:59:40.240 How you doing the miss? Chris Paul evening? 0:59:41.120 --> 0:59:41.640 I am ready. 0:59:41.680 --> 0:59:43.520 There is football in the air, and there's football to 0:59:43.560 --> 0:59:46.360 be talked about, so let's get to it. Hylands in 0:59:46.600 --> 0:59:50.280 Elder and Elder defense man, old man getting it done. 0:59:50.360 --> 0:59:53.440 But we'll be tested by a Bluebirds offense that is 0:59:53.480 --> 0:59:56.360 certainly multi faceted with a lot of guys who can 0:59:56.360 --> 0:59:57.800 get it done. 0:59:58.040 --> 0:59:59.160 Yeah. Absolutely. 0:59:59.200 --> 1:00:02.760 You know last week at setting out there at Elder 1:00:02.800 --> 1:00:06.680 in the pit when they knock off Moler, number one 1:00:06.720 --> 1:00:09.400 bowler at the time, and in front of a pack 1:00:09.480 --> 1:00:12.360 house ten thousand, everybody was out there, Zach Taylor and 1:00:12.400 --> 1:00:17.840 his son Willie Cunningham was wandering aimlessly like he normally does. 1:00:18.360 --> 1:00:21.840 It was awesome. And yeah, so it was a good game. 1:00:22.000 --> 1:00:25.120 And you know after that game, Elders defense now is 1:00:25.160 --> 1:00:27.680 allowing just sixty five point five yards of game rushing 1:00:27.720 --> 1:00:31.000 and only twelve points six points per contest, and you 1:00:31.000 --> 1:00:33.360 know they do they're doing everything right. At seven to zero, 1:00:34.440 --> 1:00:37.200 they've only turned the ball over three times. And here's 1:00:37.240 --> 1:00:38.760 what you're talking about. There's a lot of guys that 1:00:38.800 --> 1:00:42.320 can get the things done. For Highlands, only six players 1:00:42.320 --> 1:00:47.760 have scored touchdowns for Elder through the seven games, and 1:00:48.280 --> 1:00:50.600 all of them have hit paid her between three and 1:00:50.640 --> 1:00:52.640 five times. So they have a lot of guys that 1:00:52.760 --> 1:00:55.560 know how to get there too. But Highlands they've got 1:00:55.560 --> 1:00:59.240 thirteen guys with touchdowns this year, but only Tayton Larinz 1:00:59.240 --> 1:01:03.760 and who leads the team fourteen. He's got twelve touchdowns. 1:01:03.800 --> 1:01:05.600 Everybody else has two or less, so they got twelve 1:01:05.600 --> 1:01:08.040 players with two or less touchdowns, so they don't care. 1:01:08.120 --> 1:01:10.000 They just spread the ball all over the place. But 1:01:11.040 --> 1:01:13.480 the thing I really like about this Elder team is 1:01:13.520 --> 1:01:16.480 the last six teams that they've beaten are all at 1:01:16.480 --> 1:01:19.240 five hundred or better. The thing I really like about 1:01:19.280 --> 1:01:21.880 Highlands is they're three and one games decided by four 1:01:21.880 --> 1:01:23.360 points or left, so they know how to get it 1:01:23.440 --> 1:01:25.960 done in close games. And their only loss was by 1:01:26.000 --> 1:01:28.560 a point at Boyle County. So I think this is 1:01:28.560 --> 1:01:30.200 gonna be a good game. This is gonna be one 1:01:30.240 --> 1:01:33.840 of those that it might surprise some people when it's 1:01:33.880 --> 1:01:38.200 all said and done, but others pretty dogron good. Right now, all. 1:01:38.160 --> 1:01:41.200 Right, let's talk Lesal the Lancers against the Bombers of 1:01:41.280 --> 1:01:44.760 st X in a big time computer points game. 1:01:44.880 --> 1:01:45.560 Explain this. 1:01:47.120 --> 1:01:49.959 Yeah, so the top four teams in the playoffs this year, 1:01:50.160 --> 1:01:53.920 based on your computer point, they will get first round buys. 1:01:53.960 --> 1:01:58.320 We eleven buys and right now, things that you're sitting 1:01:58.360 --> 1:02:01.000 at number one and or number four Division one Reasion 1:02:01.040 --> 1:02:03.960 four and Lasal's sitting at number four in Division two 1:02:04.120 --> 1:02:07.160 Region eight uh in computer points. So the winner of 1:02:07.200 --> 1:02:09.040 this one's going to solidify that buy. You don't want 1:02:09.080 --> 1:02:11.479 to lose that buy. Uh, you know, getting a fifth 1:02:11.560 --> 1:02:14.479 or a fifth seed. So that's a big It's gonna 1:02:14.480 --> 1:02:17.920 be big, especially for these DCL South teams who have 1:02:18.080 --> 1:02:21.760 these rigorous schedules. I think they're gonna all want that 1:02:21.880 --> 1:02:24.040 rule week and that breather off a week eleven and 1:02:24.120 --> 1:02:27.200 get that buy. So but you know, Lasal's lost by 1:02:27.320 --> 1:02:29.640 straight to State X and all the last three are 1:02:29.680 --> 1:02:32.479 by nine points. So but all of them have been uh, 1:02:32.560 --> 1:02:35.960 you know, double digits besides that one, So it's been 1:02:36.000 --> 1:02:38.240 a while since Lethal has had a good game. But 1:02:38.400 --> 1:02:40.840 here's the other thing. Saint Xavier, they haven't scored more 1:02:40.840 --> 1:02:42.720 than twenty eight points in a game and our only 1:02:42.880 --> 1:02:46.480 average and eighteen pointy four points per game, So, uh, 1:02:47.000 --> 1:02:50.360 this could be a low scoring unfair especially because the 1:02:50.480 --> 1:02:53.200 same that's defense. Even though the offense isn't scoring, the 1:02:53.240 --> 1:02:56.680 defense has been stellar, given up just twelve point four 1:02:56.800 --> 1:03:01.200 points per game. He's it's been a tail of two 1:03:01.280 --> 1:03:04.160 things here. For say, next, the Bombers just haven't gotten 1:03:04.160 --> 1:03:07.120 the run game going. They're only averaging two point nine 1:03:07.160 --> 1:03:10.280 yards per carrying three rushing touchdowns on the season, and 1:03:10.320 --> 1:03:12.080 this is the time of year you need to start 1:03:12.080 --> 1:03:14.760 getting that going. So ex Ha's got some work to 1:03:14.800 --> 1:03:16.560 do if they want to keep that buy. 1:03:17.840 --> 1:03:21.920 All right, how about collision of Rockets and Knights mcnick Rockets, 1:03:21.960 --> 1:03:24.640 Alter Knights and two teams that have been rolling lately. 1:03:26.080 --> 1:03:28.800 They really have. I mean mcnick has won four in 1:03:28.800 --> 1:03:31.280 a row and Alders won three in a row, and 1:03:32.040 --> 1:03:35.160 both of them have played just kill our schedules. You know, 1:03:35.240 --> 1:03:38.160 Alter are always challenges it. They start off their Division 1:03:38.160 --> 1:03:41.400 three both teams are Division three Region twelve, and Alder 1:03:41.480 --> 1:03:44.360 plays Division one Fairmount and then they got Division two 1:03:44.440 --> 1:03:48.200 trout with Madison on their schedule. Micknick went to Ironton 1:03:48.320 --> 1:03:52.040 this year and Wheelersburg, so they play those tough Ohio 1:03:52.160 --> 1:03:55.160 River teams early on, so they've been battle tested. And 1:03:55.280 --> 1:03:58.080 right now Alter is sitting six in the computer rankings 1:03:58.360 --> 1:04:02.680 and mcnick's at seven and in Region twelve, so very 1:04:02.960 --> 1:04:05.880 very two very similar teams. But the win here is 1:04:05.920 --> 1:04:08.080 going to be huge because, like I said, both teams 1:04:08.080 --> 1:04:09.600 sitting at five and two and two and zero in 1:04:09.640 --> 1:04:13.240 the gCO co ed Division. It's gonna be a good 1:04:13.480 --> 1:04:16.280 a good night. And these two teams too they alter 1:04:16.440 --> 1:04:19.720 each other quite a bit. Altars only given up eighty 1:04:19.760 --> 1:04:22.720 four points and just a mirror each other, Alters only 1:04:22.720 --> 1:04:24.760 giving up eighty four points on the year. Mcnick's only 1:04:24.760 --> 1:04:25.880 given up eighty five. 1:04:26.480 --> 1:04:28.080 But Alter loves to run the football. 1:04:28.080 --> 1:04:30.160 They're averaging two hundred and eleven yards a game on 1:04:30.200 --> 1:04:33.480 the ground with twenty three rushing touchdowns, and their sophomore 1:04:33.560 --> 1:04:37.320 Drew Cripps has been outstanding. He's got eleven hundred and 1:04:37.320 --> 1:04:42.280 eighty five all purpose yards and he's got forty eight tackles. 1:04:42.280 --> 1:04:44.720 He's hit the end zone twelve times and has done 1:04:44.760 --> 1:04:47.480 it three or four different ways. And then mcnick is 1:04:47.600 --> 1:04:50.960 much more balanced team. They're averaging one hundred and three 1:04:51.040 --> 1:04:53.840 yards passing, they're averaging one hundred and thirty nine rushing, 1:04:54.120 --> 1:04:56.840 and then their special teams and the return game has 1:04:56.880 --> 1:05:00.640 been outstanding, averaging one hundred and one yards per game 1:05:01.080 --> 1:05:03.760 in returns. I mean, that's a whole football field and 1:05:03.880 --> 1:05:07.840 they have three uh they have three punt return or 1:05:07.880 --> 1:05:10.400 two punt returns and one kick returns for touchdowns already 1:05:10.400 --> 1:05:12.600 this year. That could be the whole difference in this 1:05:12.640 --> 1:05:15.120 ball game. I mean, especially when you're averaging that kind 1:05:15.120 --> 1:05:18.360 of yardage and on special teams in a game, that's 1:05:18.360 --> 1:05:20.320 pretty good, especially on a team it's five and two, 1:05:20.720 --> 1:05:22.960 you're not getting that many kickoffs to return and you're 1:05:22.960 --> 1:05:25.720 not you know, I mean, and well you get some 1:05:25.720 --> 1:05:28.800 punts to return, but it's it's it's pretty impressive number 1:05:28.880 --> 1:05:29.360 right there. 1:05:30.320 --> 1:05:32.280 All right, I'm I'm looking at and I love the 1:05:32.280 --> 1:05:33.920 notes you send every week, and I'm looking at this 1:05:34.040 --> 1:05:37.360 Indian Hill Braves matchup against the Madeira Mustangs, and I 1:05:37.400 --> 1:05:39.280 will admit there's a note on each side. I looked 1:05:39.320 --> 1:05:41.680 and I did a double take, and I said, holy cow, 1:05:41.800 --> 1:05:44.240 could that be true? Tell me about the Indian Hill 1:05:44.440 --> 1:05:47.840 defense and tell me about Madeira's quarterback situation. 1:05:48.880 --> 1:05:51.280 Yeah, this is a I put this one on here 1:05:51.320 --> 1:05:53.200 because this is this is gonna be a tough It 1:05:53.200 --> 1:05:56.560 could be a tough night for Madeira. But Indian Hills defense, 1:05:56.600 --> 1:05:59.840 let's start there first. They have only given up thirty 1:05:59.840 --> 1:06:02.680 five points on the season, five points a game. They've 1:06:02.720 --> 1:06:06.160 shut up their last three opponents and they've given up 1:06:06.200 --> 1:06:08.680 this is an incredible stat. Seven games in the season. 1:06:08.880 --> 1:06:11.560 They've only given up seven first half points. 1:06:11.560 --> 1:06:12.440 They've shut out. 1:06:12.240 --> 1:06:15.480 Fox teams in the first half of game. Instead amazing 1:06:15.840 --> 1:06:19.120 and then you know so and they're only holding and 1:06:19.240 --> 1:06:22.959 this is another good fact about their defense. They're sitting 1:06:23.000 --> 1:06:25.720 at seven and zero and there's reason why they've only 1:06:25.720 --> 1:06:28.360 given up sixty five yards a game Russians and seventy 1:06:28.400 --> 1:06:31.720 one passing and they're only allowing a thirty seven point 1:06:31.800 --> 1:06:36.440 seven completion race. Why is that so important? Madeira is 1:06:36.480 --> 1:06:42.240 starting at fifth quarterback of the season tomorrow night and 1:06:42.360 --> 1:06:44.600 all four of their wins this season, they're four and 1:06:44.680 --> 1:06:47.240 three and three and one in the CHL, a game 1:06:47.280 --> 1:06:52.280 behind Indian Hill. And it's crazy, but they've had four 1:06:52.320 --> 1:06:55.760 different quarterbacks winning games for him this year. And even 1:06:55.880 --> 1:06:59.320 better than that stat all even though they started five quarterbacks, 1:06:59.360 --> 1:07:03.040 they've only thrown five interceptions all year. So, I mean, 1:07:03.520 --> 1:07:05.840 that's off to Chris Stewart, the head coach over there, 1:07:05.880 --> 1:07:08.040 for doing such a great job with was what he 1:07:08.200 --> 1:07:11.080 had to work with. I mean, I can't imagine being 1:07:11.040 --> 1:07:13.160 on FI starting quarterback in the high school. This kid 1:07:13.200 --> 1:07:15.280 was a wide receiver and a dvy. 1:07:15.720 --> 1:07:16.400 They had their. 1:07:16.440 --> 1:07:18.120 Freshman quarterback up at one time. 1:07:18.200 --> 1:07:18.800 He got hurt. 1:07:18.840 --> 1:07:22.240 Their starter got hurt. Uh four passes into the season, 1:07:22.360 --> 1:07:25.400 so uh. He was an All conference player last year. 1:07:25.440 --> 1:07:27.680 So that's awesome, A dear, I know it could be 1:07:27.800 --> 1:07:30.800 a long night just the Braves tomorrow, but man, good 1:07:30.880 --> 1:07:32.360 job by Chris Stewart. 1:07:32.640 --> 1:07:33.520 No doubt about it. 1:07:33.560 --> 1:07:35.840 All right, it's gonna be a big night and you've 1:07:35.840 --> 1:07:38.440 got it all covered.

I'm looking at the injury report released by 1:09:33.640 --> 1:09:38.000 the Ravens today and once again Lamar Jackson does not go. 1:09:38.720 --> 1:09:41.240 That in all likelihood means he does not play again. 1:09:42.120 --> 1:09:45.800 Cooper Rush would seemingly get the start. Schadobei Ouzie, the 1:09:45.840 --> 1:09:49.600 former Bengal, did not practice today. He's dealing with a hamstring. 1:09:50.040 --> 1:09:54.200 Lamar Jackson's issue is a hamstring, and also of significance, 1:09:54.280 --> 1:09:57.599 Rokwan Smith, their linebacker and later on the defensive side, 1:09:57.840 --> 1:10:01.360 did not practice today with a hams they have. I'm 1:10:01.400 --> 1:10:04.000 counting this as I'm scrolling through the screen on my phone. 1:10:04.080 --> 1:10:09.120 One two, three, four players who did not practice today 1:10:09.320 --> 1:10:12.800 in total, again the Ravens one in four, allowing one 1:10:12.880 --> 1:10:16.679 hundred and seventy seven points to this season, and John 1:10:16.720 --> 1:10:22.120 Harbaugh answering questions about the status security of his defensive coordinator. 1:10:22.200 --> 1:10:22.920 Also the one in. 1:10:22.920 --> 1:10:28.120 Four Browns at the three and one Pittsburgh Steelers rookie 1:10:28.240 --> 1:10:32.280 versus veteran Dylan Gabriel what twenty three years old, Aaron 1:10:32.360 --> 1:10:36.800 Rodgers forty one years old.

They get back at it in 1:10:41.040 --> 1:10:45.679 the Division, Browns at the Steelers. All right, that covers 1:10:45.720 --> 1:10:51.000 the AFC North.

Let's talk week 1:12:25.560 --> 1:12:28.240 six and let's talk with Dan Klaskins. 1:12:28.280 --> 1:12:28.800 How are you? 1:12:31.280 --> 1:12:32.120 How are we doing tonight? 1:12:32.200 --> 1:12:32.519 Lance? 1:12:33.240 --> 1:12:37.120 I can't believe it's all Eddy week six. That's crazy. 1:12:37.160 --> 1:12:38.639 It is no doubt about it. 1:12:38.680 --> 1:12:42.040 And there are storylines to continue to emerge now into 1:12:42.120 --> 1:12:45.720 week six. Let's talk some early season heroes from the 1:12:45.840 --> 1:12:47.560 fantasy football player standpoint. 1:12:48.920 --> 1:12:51.080 Yeah, well, we always talked about so many bad things, 1:12:51.080 --> 1:12:53.439 and we'll get to the bad things the next part. 1:12:53.479 --> 1:12:56.920 But let's focus on some of the things that we've 1:12:56.960 --> 1:12:59.360 had to be excited about, especially there on your fantasy team. 1:12:59.400 --> 1:13:02.880 Nobody more excited than Poka Nakua because he is wide 1:13:02.920 --> 1:13:04.800 receiver one right now. He slipped a little bit in 1:13:04.840 --> 1:13:07.880 August draft. We're worried about Matthew Stafford is back and 1:13:08.240 --> 1:13:11.360 all these things, but this dude scored twenty three plus 1:13:11.400 --> 1:13:14.200 PPR points and every week of the season and is 1:13:14.320 --> 1:13:17.880 locked in. Amiku Kubuka Lancis was a guy I was 1:13:17.920 --> 1:13:20.400 talking up on the radio all all of this long 1:13:20.479 --> 1:13:22.439 as being a league winning pick, and I got all 1:13:22.479 --> 1:13:23.280 the things wrong, but this. 1:13:23.320 --> 1:13:23.840 Is one of them. 1:13:23.920 --> 1:13:26.840 I definitely wish I had more of uh. He's wide 1:13:26.880 --> 1:13:29.240 receiver three right now, and he's on pace to be 1:13:29.600 --> 1:13:32.200 the offensive rookie year. He's a favorite of most sportsbook 1:13:32.280 --> 1:13:34.680 target sheriff per game twenty three percent, twenty and a 1:13:34.720 --> 1:13:37.639 half PPR points, eighty nine yards a touchdown. You gotta 1:13:37.720 --> 1:13:40.880 love that running back. Nobody wanted Christian McCaffrey. Oh, he's 1:13:40.880 --> 1:13:42.840 always there. He's always there. He's the only forty nine 1:13:42.840 --> 1:13:45.000 are healthy. And if you take away all of his 1:13:45.120 --> 1:13:48.479 rushing stats, the dude's got ninety five point seven PPR 1:13:48.560 --> 1:13:51.519 points just on his receiving stats alone. That would make him. 1:13:51.360 --> 1:13:52.400 Wide receiver five. 1:13:52.760 --> 1:13:56.400 Overall, he's running back to Javonte Williams is running back three. 1:13:56.600 --> 1:13:59.280 Here's a guy that I mean, I got admitted. I 1:13:59.320 --> 1:14:02.280 didn't drave him. I wasn't that impressed coming off the injury, 1:14:02.360 --> 1:14:05.240 the major injury a year ago. But he finishes RB 1:14:05.640 --> 1:14:09.120 thirty four in high stakes drafts and ADP, so nobody 1:14:09.160 --> 1:14:11.639 was drafted him. But right now he's RB three seventy 1:14:11.640 --> 1:14:14.479 eight percent running backshare, looking great for the Cowboys. And finally, 1:14:14.479 --> 1:14:17.960 Patrick Mahomes, I mean he's either a criticized especially in fantasy, 1:14:17.960 --> 1:14:19.960 he really gets to eat the fantasy It's been down 1:14:20.000 --> 1:14:22.519 the last couple of years. But twenty four plus PPR 1:14:23.040 --> 1:14:25.799 or fantasy points in four or five games, that rushing 1:14:25.840 --> 1:14:28.479 for fifty seven rushing yards a game and three of 1:14:28.520 --> 1:14:31.240 his five contests three rushing touchdowns, all just one shot 1:14:31.280 --> 1:14:33.880 of his career best. That rushing floor has him as 1:14:33.960 --> 1:14:36.680 QB two and back as an elite fantasy quarterback. 1:14:38.080 --> 1:14:40.920 All right, let's do the injury watch. I see I 1:14:40.960 --> 1:14:43.559 see running backs, I see quarterbacks. I see a raven 1:14:43.640 --> 1:14:46.080 I see a whole bunch of activity here. Sort through 1:14:46.120 --> 1:14:48.240 it for us well. 1:14:48.280 --> 1:14:50.720 No player or position or team, and none of it's 1:14:50.920 --> 1:14:53.920 free of injuries. They're abundant. We'll hit on the big ones. 1:14:54.040 --> 1:14:56.160 First of all, the good news for Tennity Sae Kwon 1:14:56.240 --> 1:14:58.720 Barkley was limited most of the week. I expect him 1:14:58.760 --> 1:15:00.880 to be a fool go. I'm in on some of 1:15:00.880 --> 1:15:03.400 his props tonight, so no worry is there with the 1:15:03.479 --> 1:15:06.600 knee issue. The Shan Campy said for those sitting with 1:15:06.680 --> 1:15:10.519 rookie of Marion Hampton on their fantasy rosters, including yours truly, 1:15:11.360 --> 1:15:15.200 but ankle issue there, he's on ir They got the 1:15:15.280 --> 1:15:17.960 Son Haskins, They've got Kamani Butadla, They've got a bunch 1:15:18.000 --> 1:15:20.320 of question marks. You want to try to avoid starting 1:15:20.360 --> 1:15:23.479 those players if possible. Bucky Irving, I don't expect him 1:15:23.520 --> 1:15:25.599 to play with that foot issue. So another was shod 1:15:25.640 --> 1:15:28.720 White beats there with the fucks and Choopa Hubbard out 1:15:28.800 --> 1:15:30.680 again for the Panthers unless he can get back on 1:15:30.720 --> 1:15:32.600 the practice. But Mario has a practice all week. He 1:15:32.640 --> 1:15:35.200 missed last week. Rico Dabdo went off and now they're 1:15:35.200 --> 1:15:37.599 taking on his former team to Cowboys, so I really 1:15:37.640 --> 1:15:38.160 like Rico. 1:15:38.640 --> 1:15:40.120 Again, if Hubbard. 1:15:39.760 --> 1:15:42.800 Said they expect Jaywen Warren back, but you know with 1:15:42.840 --> 1:15:45.040 the knee issue, Cat Gamewell did good and is out. 1:15:45.080 --> 1:15:46.640 I don't know how that backs here is going out. 1:15:46.680 --> 1:15:47.880 I think they're both RB three. 1:15:48.320 --> 1:15:50.920 The quarterbacks are where the big headliners are. Lamar Jackson 1:15:50.920 --> 1:15:52.080 didn't practice again today. 1:15:52.120 --> 1:15:53.840 He's not going to play, let's face it. 1:15:53.880 --> 1:15:56.720 But the hamstring issue there and the Ravens stink with that, 1:15:56.880 --> 1:16:00.000 and Kyler Murray with a foot, Brock Purdy with the toe. 1:16:00.240 --> 1:16:02.479 These guys are trending in the wrong direction again for 1:16:02.560 --> 1:16:06.320 week six as our Terry McLaurin hamstring the Commanders, while 1:16:06.360 --> 1:16:08.679 it outset to miss the third straight game, Brock powers, 1:16:08.920 --> 1:16:11.400 they should have put him on IR. I think of resting. 1:16:11.080 --> 1:16:11.760 Through the bye week. 1:16:11.800 --> 1:16:13.880 I don't think he's back to after week eight. And 1:16:13.920 --> 1:16:16.599 George Kettle not going to play this week, but trending 1:16:16.600 --> 1:16:18.960 optimism that he could return a week seven for the 1:16:18.960 --> 1:16:20.120 forty nine ers. 1:16:20.640 --> 1:16:24.000 All right, onto our weekly lineup advice, roll out some studs, 1:16:24.080 --> 1:16:26.920 duds and sleepers for us. 1:16:27.080 --> 1:16:29.640 Yes, yes, well, let's talk about studs and let's go 1:16:29.680 --> 1:16:31.479 to Matthew Stafford. I talked about book and the cool 1:16:31.560 --> 1:16:34.400 somebody got throwing the ball and three or five quarterbacks 1:16:34.400 --> 1:16:36.960 to face. The Ravens has scored thirty plus fantasy points. 1:16:36.960 --> 1:16:39.120 Staffords hit that mark in each of the rams past 1:16:39.160 --> 1:16:40.760 two games. I think he makes it three in a 1:16:40.840 --> 1:16:43.280 row on Sunday, Jackson Smith, Njiga. 1:16:43.479 --> 1:16:43.960 He's been a. 1:16:43.920 --> 1:16:47.800 Stud all season. He goes against an offense in Jacksonvill. 1:16:47.800 --> 1:16:49.320 I think it's gonna be a little higher scoring of 1:16:49.360 --> 1:16:52.040 a game than the total. But only two good whiteouts 1:16:52.040 --> 1:16:55.080 to faceball season true number one Jamar Chase and Ecocomons. 1:16:55.120 --> 1:16:57.879 They broke got one hundred yards in a touchdown. JSM 1:16:58.000 --> 1:17:01.040 does the same this week. My duds left justin Fields. 1:17:01.080 --> 1:17:04.639 Only two teams have allowed fewer fantasy quarterbacks this season 1:17:04.960 --> 1:17:08.559 points the fantasy quarterbacks this season than the Broncos have. 1:17:08.800 --> 1:17:12.040 And blance hit the stat for you fifteen rushing yards 1:17:12.040 --> 1:17:14.920 the Broncos have given up through five games to quarterbacks. 1:17:14.960 --> 1:17:17.479 That's three yards per game average, and they faced Cam Woard, 1:17:17.520 --> 1:17:21.080 Daniel Jones, Justin, Herbert, Jase Browning, and Jalen Hurt. The 1:17:21.160 --> 1:17:23.760 rushing floor's not there this week for Field. Sit him 1:17:24.040 --> 1:17:26.200 and we're gonna sit there at Henry he scored twenty 1:17:26.280 --> 1:17:28.439 nine point two PPR points in Week one. We thought 1:17:28.439 --> 1:17:30.360 it was going to be Fantasy bold every game since 1:17:30.479 --> 1:17:33.519 just thirty point one PPR points. He's not really good 1:17:33.520 --> 1:17:36.040 without Lamar Jackson there either, and then just a couple 1:17:36.040 --> 1:17:38.000 of sleepers. I'll leave you with I like Michael Carter 1:17:38.479 --> 1:17:41.400 the running back. I don't like you as a bunch 1:17:41.400 --> 1:17:43.160 of Kayla Murray yet, but he will get the volume. 1:17:43.200 --> 1:17:44.760 He didn't drop the ball at the gold line like 1:17:44.840 --> 1:17:48.240 his teammate Imi Denmarkado did a week ago. So Carter's 1:17:48.240 --> 1:17:50.759 in as an RB three flex, as is Chris o'lave 1:17:51.000 --> 1:17:53.720 the wide receiver three or flex I like him. He's 1:17:53.720 --> 1:17:56.160 only had fewer than ten targets in one game this season. 1:17:57.000 --> 1:17:59.679 All right, you've been talking about your do Good Fantasy 1:17:59.720 --> 1:18:02.479 Salary Cap challenge is a new way to play fantasy 1:18:02.479 --> 1:18:05.240 football and health veterans.

Mike Petrellia who checked in on the scene. 1:22:15.240 --> 1:22:17.439 Talk a little Bengals football. We've done the UC thing 1:22:17.479 --> 1:22:20.880 with Keegan Nicholson. We've talked high school football with Greg Shoemaker. 1:22:21.040 --> 1:22:23.920 We did fantasy football with Dan Klaskins. 1:22:24.280 --> 1:22:24.679 Update. 1:22:24.760 --> 1:22:27.960 The Phillies have pushed across the run middle of the 1:22:28.040 --> 1:22:32.960 seventh they lead the Dodgers won nothing that run, compliments 1:22:33.120 --> 1:22:38.200 of a Nick Costianos double to score Max Kepler. So 1:22:38.320 --> 1:22:40.720 the Phillies down two to one in the series to 1:22:40.800 --> 1:22:46.520 the Dodgers lead one nothing going bottom seven in Los Angeles. 1:22:46.560 --> 1:22:49.400 We will monitor and update all right at the Talk 1:22:49.439 --> 1:22:49.800 of the Week. 1:22:49.840 --> 1:22:55.000 Obviously, Joe Flack of the Trade announced well story broken 1:22:55.040 --> 1:22:58.960 on Tuesday. Announced officially on Wednesday. Joe drives in a 1:22:59.280 --> 1:23:01.519 car with his wife and it has a five hour 1:23:01.600 --> 1:23:04.200 conversation of their pauts with Zach Taylor on the way 1:23:04.520 --> 1:23:10.479 to town Wednesday practice, Thursday practice Sunday. It will be 1:23:10.680 --> 1:23:13.720 a start in Green Bay against the Packers. I was 1:23:13.720 --> 1:23:17.080 talking with James Rapeen last night covering it for Bengals 1:23:17.080 --> 1:23:21.120 Talk dot com about the fact that there's no debate, 1:23:21.160 --> 1:23:23.720 there's no doubt, there's no question. Zach has made it 1:23:23.800 --> 1:23:28.639 very clear. Echo is starting on Sunday. Here's James or been. 1:23:30.000 --> 1:23:32.360 It was the second sentence to Joe after they made 1:23:32.360 --> 1:23:35.599 the deal was Hey, you're gonna start, so get ready. 1:23:35.760 --> 1:23:39.439 And so I was surprised Zach evolved that. I was 1:23:39.439 --> 1:23:42.000 happy he did because that gives you an idea of 1:23:42.040 --> 1:23:45.439 where the Bengals were at with this thing. They know 1:23:45.600 --> 1:23:49.080 the offense need to be their strength. It was built 1:23:49.120 --> 1:23:52.200 around the offense. They're obviously invested a lot in the offense, 1:23:52.240 --> 1:23:54.960 even without Joe Burrow. When you think of the Bengals, 1:23:55.000 --> 1:23:58.160 you're thinking of those star receivers and you're thinking about 1:23:58.160 --> 1:24:01.080 getting in the ball. And so when you look at 1:24:01.120 --> 1:24:04.240 what they haven't been able to do, which is score touchdowns, 1:24:04.800 --> 1:24:07.280 how do you fix that? And I think they are 1:24:07.840 --> 1:24:10.800 buying into the idea of Joe Flacco eighteen years in 1:24:10.800 --> 1:24:14.439 the NFL still has the arm talent, still has the 1:24:15.080 --> 1:24:20.240 intelligence and smarts and also the right mentality slash leadership 1:24:20.760 --> 1:24:25.759 to handle starting four days, five days, really after being 1:24:26.320 --> 1:24:30.240 driven down seventy one from Cleveland to play for the Bengals. 1:24:29.880 --> 1:24:33.839 And during that drive, if you could detail what sounds 1:24:33.880 --> 1:24:37.160 like a playbook and game planning discussion as he was 1:24:37.200 --> 1:24:38.680 being driven to Cincinnati. 1:24:39.360 --> 1:24:44.599 Yeah, yeah, it's really it's so cool, honestly to know 1:24:44.680 --> 1:24:48.360 the behind the scenes, because, you know, Joe Flacco, it 1:24:48.520 --> 1:24:51.679 was a normal Tuesday for him. He was probably getting 1:24:51.720 --> 1:24:54.880 a little rest, relaxing and kind of getting ready for 1:24:54.920 --> 1:24:57.479 the week in Cleveland. Finds out he's getting traded. And 1:24:57.560 --> 1:25:01.840 so the Bengals they have two drivers, one for Joe 1:25:02.120 --> 1:25:04.720 and his wife and the other one for all of 1:25:04.840 --> 1:25:09.200 Joe's belongings and all the essentials. And so you have 1:25:09.240 --> 1:25:12.120 two cars coming down seventy one, and as Zach Taylor 1:25:12.520 --> 1:25:15.400 calls Joe, they go over the playbooks some and start 1:25:15.439 --> 1:25:19.160 to dissect things a little bit and get things put 1:25:19.240 --> 1:25:21.680 in place so they can and so they could hit 1:25:21.720 --> 1:25:24.599 the ground running today. And I think that's the important 1:25:24.600 --> 1:25:27.240 thing is you've got to maximize your practice time. You know, 1:25:27.240 --> 1:25:29.280 they have so many practices and so for them to 1:25:29.640 --> 1:25:31.880 be able to do that and use that time, I 1:25:32.000 --> 1:25:32.840 do think. 1:25:33.320 --> 1:25:34.599 That that could be valuable. 1:25:34.640 --> 1:25:37.880 Will it end up being successful, We'll see, but I 1:25:37.920 --> 1:25:39.200 do think that every minute counts. 1:25:39.479 --> 1:25:41.600 James, what can the offense look like? 1:25:42.160 --> 1:25:42.519 Now? 1:25:42.600 --> 1:25:45.920 Would Joe Flackle? What can he help them do? One? 1:25:46.600 --> 1:25:50.160 If that made this very clear, I was almost surprised 1:25:50.200 --> 1:25:53.000 at how clear it was. He can pass the football, 1:25:53.400 --> 1:25:57.879 which it sounds ridiculous. Oh the quarterback pass the football, 1:25:57.920 --> 1:26:00.000 DoD James, Well, they. 1:25:59.680 --> 1:26:00.760 Hadn't able to pass it. 1:26:00.800 --> 1:26:03.040 When you have Jamar Chasen t Higgins, it really. 1:26:02.840 --> 1:26:04.160 Shouldn't matter who's on the other side. 1:26:04.200 --> 1:26:06.680 You should be able to throw the ball around the 1:26:06.720 --> 1:26:10.120 field of it make some big plays. And quite frankly, 1:26:10.320 --> 1:26:12.400 I know people are going to bring up the offensive line, 1:26:12.680 --> 1:26:15.920 but the past couple of games, even in Denver, when 1:26:16.000 --> 1:26:18.000 Jake Browning didn't turn the ball over, he left so 1:26:18.040 --> 1:26:21.080 many plays on the field and the offensive line gave 1:26:21.120 --> 1:26:21.679 them a shot. 1:26:21.720 --> 1:26:22.559 I thought, I'm not. 1:26:22.520 --> 1:26:24.439 Saying they're perfect, I'm not saying they're flawless. 1:26:24.439 --> 1:26:27.040 They're not plenty that they need to clean up, but 1:26:27.360 --> 1:26:27.920 you need. 1:26:27.760 --> 1:26:30.080 To take advantage of the plays that are there, and 1:26:30.160 --> 1:26:32.960 so what can this offense look like? Well, I do 1:26:32.960 --> 1:26:35.360 think they're going to be able to push the ball downfield. 1:26:34.840 --> 1:26:37.599 In a way that they have it in the past. 1:26:37.800 --> 1:26:40.120 Obviously you have to give Flacko some time to do that. 1:26:40.360 --> 1:26:44.040 At the same time, his arm talent is extremely unique. 1:26:44.439 --> 1:26:47.320 This isn't even Joe Burrow arm strength. 1:26:47.360 --> 1:26:48.800 This is on another level. 1:26:48.840 --> 1:26:51.719 There aren't many guys that can spin it like Joe Flacco. 1:26:51.840 --> 1:26:54.360 So from that element, I think you could see that 1:26:54.560 --> 1:26:58.040 the downfield game work in their favor with the Jamar 1:26:58.120 --> 1:27:02.600 Chasen t Higgins and He's was really good. Flacco was 1:27:02.600 --> 1:27:05.040 at targeting the tight ends, targeting the running back. So 1:27:05.160 --> 1:27:07.360 I think you're gonna see plenty of Chase brown Mike Kisiki, 1:27:07.439 --> 1:27:08.439 and Noah Fan as well. 1:27:08.880 --> 1:27:11.280 James, what happened to Jake Browning? 1:27:12.400 --> 1:27:14.160 Oh my goodness, you know, I. 1:27:15.760 --> 1:27:18.840 Thought about this last night. I was like, you know, 1:27:19.080 --> 1:27:22.240 in training camp, the Bengals thought they had arguably the 1:27:22.280 --> 1:27:24.920 best quarterback room in the NFL, because you have a 1:27:24.960 --> 1:27:26.800 guy in Joe Burrow who you think is the best 1:27:26.800 --> 1:27:29.200 on the planet if you're the Bengals, and then Jake 1:27:29.280 --> 1:27:32.320 Browning arguably the best backup in the league in their minds, 1:27:32.360 --> 1:27:35.160 I'm sure, and when you consider the contract of what 1:27:35.240 --> 1:27:37.800 he's making versus some of the other backups, I'm sure 1:27:37.840 --> 1:27:40.439 they considered him the best backup in the league and 1:27:40.520 --> 1:27:44.439 so for him to unravel. 1:27:43.960 --> 1:27:45.760 The way he did, especially because he. 1:27:45.840 --> 1:27:49.000 Played pretty well when he came in spot duty for 1:27:49.400 --> 1:27:52.000 Joe when Joe got hurt, Yeah, and leads them back 1:27:52.360 --> 1:27:56.400 against Jacksonville like spoiler alert, Joe Flacco is going to 1:27:56.479 --> 1:27:59.839 throw picks, but he's also going to produce big plays, 1:28:00.720 --> 1:28:03.760 and the Bengals could have lived with the interceptions if 1:28:03.760 --> 1:28:06.679 it was also coming with explosive plays. In the explosive 1:28:06.720 --> 1:28:09.479 plays went away, and I really I don't know where when. 1:28:09.560 --> 1:28:13.160 I don't know why he wasn't seeing it better or 1:28:13.360 --> 1:28:16.840 maybe maybe it's this lance. Maybe he just caught lightning 1:28:16.880 --> 1:28:19.240 in a bottle a couple of years ago and that's 1:28:19.280 --> 1:28:22.680 what that was, and that in who he is and 1:28:22.800 --> 1:28:25.880 who he is, which is an undrafted quarterback that was 1:28:25.880 --> 1:28:28.760 on practice squad for the majority of his career and 1:28:28.800 --> 1:28:32.679 he's limited physically. I don't know, but I do feel 1:28:33.400 --> 1:28:36.000 feel for him because I think the Bengals viewed him 1:28:36.000 --> 1:28:37.600 as one of the top backups in the league, and 1:28:37.600 --> 1:28:40.960 now he's back up Joe Flacco five days after Flacco 1:28:41.040 --> 1:28:41.720 gets traded for. 1:28:42.479 --> 1:28:46.760 This situation feels worse than the reality from the standpoint 1:28:46.760 --> 1:28:49.800 of they're still in the AFC North Race. There's still 1:28:49.880 --> 1:28:52.200 right now, they're the eighth seed in the pecking order 1:28:52.240 --> 1:28:52.960 of the AFC. 1:28:53.320 --> 1:28:54.840 It's not like they're out of this thing. 1:28:55.120 --> 1:28:59.200 And I think that was the importance of doing what 1:28:59.280 --> 1:29:04.200 they did by acquiring a quarterback, showing hey, we know, 1:29:04.880 --> 1:29:06.519 we know we have to be better, we're going to 1:29:06.600 --> 1:29:09.960 try to be better. We'll take this step and whether 1:29:10.040 --> 1:29:14.559 or not it works, we'll see. But things were starting. 1:29:14.680 --> 1:29:17.479 It hadn't fully gotten there yet. But one more a 1:29:17.520 --> 1:29:19.320 week and this might have. 1:29:19.479 --> 1:29:23.680 Erupted like it was starting to, you know, the finger. 1:29:23.400 --> 1:29:27.519 Pointing could have quickly become a sing in the locker room, 1:29:27.520 --> 1:29:29.240 could have started to break a bit. And so you 1:29:29.880 --> 1:29:32.040 and I'm not saying that's all Jake's fault, because it's not. 1:29:32.200 --> 1:29:34.639 But when you lose and you're getting your butt kicked, 1:29:35.200 --> 1:29:38.000 and you're being outscored one thirteen to thirty seven. 1:29:37.800 --> 1:29:39.599 And all four of those touchdowns, by the way. 1:29:39.439 --> 1:29:45.320 We're garbage time touchdowns, it's tough sledding. So yeah, it's 1:29:46.080 --> 1:29:49.040 they are in it and in They view it that way, 1:29:49.040 --> 1:29:50.760 and they should view it that way because the team 1:29:50.800 --> 1:29:53.479 that the head of them in the division, the Pittsburgh Steelers, 1:29:53.479 --> 1:29:55.920 they play them twice starting next week. 1:29:56.240 --> 1:29:57.520 They play them twice. 1:29:57.200 --> 1:30:00.120 In a month. You know, So even if you lose a. 1:30:00.280 --> 1:30:02.519 Lambo, if you handle business twice against the Steelers in 1:30:02.560 --> 1:30:05.160 a month span with Joe Flacco, you're probably going to 1:30:05.200 --> 1:30:06.320 be in the ASC North Necks. 1:30:06.880 --> 1:30:09.559 You mentioned running backs and tight ends in the impact 1:30:09.680 --> 1:30:11.800 Joe Flacco could have. I look at a guy in 1:30:11.880 --> 1:30:14.200 terms of his targets, in terms of his catch right 1:30:14.560 --> 1:30:18.679 that is I think do for a bounce is T Higgins. 1:30:19.360 --> 1:30:21.320 No, I agree with you, and I think. 1:30:21.439 --> 1:30:24.599 That is the one that I point to. Why would 1:30:24.640 --> 1:30:26.680 you make a move, Why would you do it? 1:30:27.400 --> 1:30:27.599 Well? 1:30:28.439 --> 1:30:29.840 T Higgins right now? 1:30:29.880 --> 1:30:31.040 And I don't believe. 1:30:30.760 --> 1:30:33.519 He's this to be clear, He's just a guy. 1:30:33.960 --> 1:30:34.439 Yeah, And. 1:30:36.000 --> 1:30:39.400 There's no planet, there's no quarterback. There's no scenario where 1:30:39.400 --> 1:30:42.040 T Higgins in this offense without Joe Burrow can be 1:30:42.280 --> 1:30:46.559 just a guy because they're built around he, Jamar Chase Brown, 1:30:46.600 --> 1:30:50.080 their skill talent, and they need a quarterback. That is 1:30:50.120 --> 1:30:53.160 going to get as much out of them as they can, 1:30:53.560 --> 1:30:56.280 especially without Joe, and so yeah, I agree with you. 1:30:56.320 --> 1:31:00.320 I think t Higgins unlocking him as such a huge 1:31:00.360 --> 1:31:05.240 part of what they need to do, and it's it's 1:31:05.280 --> 1:31:07.479 got to start. Honestly, it's got to start. Win lose 1:31:07.520 --> 1:31:10.400 with drawn, it doesn't matter sun day. A lambo like 1:31:10.439 --> 1:31:13.200 t Higgins should be a problem and we should be 1:31:13.200 --> 1:31:15.439 talking about t Higgins making big plays even if they 1:31:15.439 --> 1:31:16.120 don't win the game. 1:31:16.360 --> 1:31:19.000 Last question for you always appreciate your time. Let me 1:31:19.000 --> 1:31:20.600 flip to the other side of the ball. Do you 1:31:20.640 --> 1:31:22.959 see encouraging signs about this defense? 1:31:23.600 --> 1:31:25.680 The defense is so tough to judge because of how 1:31:25.760 --> 1:31:26.840 weird these games have been. 1:31:26.960 --> 1:31:27.960 Yeah, I mean they've. 1:31:27.760 --> 1:31:31.960 Been putting in really tough spots. I think I see 1:31:32.000 --> 1:31:36.120 some encouraging signs for sure. Is it real or not? 1:31:36.360 --> 1:31:39.400 I have no idea. And that's another element to this. 1:31:39.520 --> 1:31:41.519 And you just youve got to be able to play 1:31:41.560 --> 1:31:44.400 a normal game where you're not looking up in wondering 1:31:44.479 --> 1:31:46.360 what the heck just happened. I mean, the Minnesota game 1:31:46.439 --> 1:31:49.240 is such an outlier. And then I just thought Jake 1:31:49.360 --> 1:31:52.240 was fled out bad against Denver and that that game 1:31:52.320 --> 1:31:55.439 was for the taking. I'll be honest with you, Lamb. 1:31:55.479 --> 1:31:58.280 So we spent all off season talking about how you know, 1:31:58.320 --> 1:32:02.040 if they're just mid middle of the pack. 1:32:01.840 --> 1:32:03.599 On defense, they're gonna be fine. 1:32:04.040 --> 1:32:05.639 I think that true. 1:32:05.840 --> 1:32:07.360 I think they would have been middle of the pack 1:32:07.400 --> 1:32:09.680 on defense. I think it would have came together. I 1:32:10.000 --> 1:32:14.000 would bet a significant amount of coin that if Joe Burrow. 1:32:13.800 --> 1:32:16.760 Hadn't gotten hurt, their form one right now, and. 1:32:16.680 --> 1:32:19.240 Maybe that losses in Minnesota, maybe it's in Denver. 1:32:19.320 --> 1:32:19.840 I don't think so. 1:32:19.840 --> 1:32:20.960 I think they would have won in Denver. 1:32:21.560 --> 1:32:24.360 Maybe it's last week against the Lions, but I think 1:32:24.400 --> 1:32:25.479 they'd be four and one. 1:32:26.080 --> 1:32:30.480 And so to not be in that spot. 1:32:29.920 --> 1:32:31.600 You'd think, oh, well, it's the defense and it's not. 1:32:31.720 --> 1:32:33.719 The offense has been the worst in the NFL, and 1:32:33.760 --> 1:32:36.600 in that has to change if there's any chance of 1:32:36.640 --> 1:32:37.639 turning the season around. 1:32:38.040 --> 1:32:39.400 This week at Lambeau. 1:32:40.360 --> 1:32:44.440 James for Paine Bengals Talk dot Com, Locked on Bengals Podcast, 1:32:44.720 --> 1:32:49.400 Enter the Jungle Podcast, as well.

In advance of 1:33:32.960 --> 1:33:36.599 the Thursday night er against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Let's take 1:33:36.600 --> 1:33:40.120 a look at the first look at Sunday's opponent, Green 1:33:40.160 --> 1:33:42.800 Bay Packers, brought to you by Game Day Men's Health. 1:33:43.000 --> 1:33:44.879 Get back in the game today. 1:33:46.600 --> 1:33:49.720 Wayne Lairvie is the longtime voice of the Green Bay 1:33:49.760 --> 1:33:52.560 Packers legendary play by play voice. Was the voice of 1:33:52.600 --> 1:33:56.640 the Kansas City Chiefs for I believe fourteen years. Was 1:33:56.680 --> 1:33:58.880 the voice of the Chicago Bears when I was in 1:33:58.960 --> 1:34:02.519 Chicago back in the end of the late nineties, called 1:34:02.560 --> 1:34:06.599 their Super Bowl win of eighty five. If I remember 1:34:06.680 --> 1:34:10.680 the timeline correctly. Then left and while in Chicago was 1:34:10.720 --> 1:34:15.200 the longtime television voice of the Chicago Bulls on WGNTV, 1:34:15.320 --> 1:34:17.880 and I believe that Onto Sports Channel perhaps or may 1:34:17.920 --> 1:34:22.040 have just been the WGN side. But left the Bears 1:34:22.120 --> 1:34:25.679 broadcast team to join the Green Bay Packers broadcast team, 1:34:25.880 --> 1:34:29.760 which created a little bit of a little bit of 1:34:29.840 --> 1:34:32.640 upheople if you know the relationship between Bears fans and 1:34:33.080 --> 1:34:34.960 Packers fans. But he's been the voice of the Packers 1:34:34.960 --> 1:34:38.880 since nineteen ninety nine, just outstanding. He was a guest 1:34:38.960 --> 1:34:42.599 last night on the Wednesday night Bengals game Plan show 1:34:42.680 --> 1:34:45.559 on ESPN fifteen thirty with Dan Horde and Dave Lapham, 1:34:45.640 --> 1:34:48.479 outstanding each and every week from six to eight o'clock, 1:34:48.720 --> 1:34:50.880 and they asked him about a couple of parts of 1:34:50.920 --> 1:34:55.519 this Packer team line by Micah Parsons, acquired you remember 1:34:55.520 --> 1:34:57.840 in the blockbuster just before the start of the season 1:34:57.840 --> 1:35:00.679 from the Dallas Cowboys, And they asked Wayne, a voice 1:35:00.680 --> 1:35:03.559 of the Packers, about the impact that persons has had 1:35:03.680 --> 1:35:04.360 on this team. 1:35:05.560 --> 1:35:08.320 It's given that defense as certain swagger that maybe it 1:35:08.360 --> 1:35:11.679 didn't have before. It was a good defense last year. 1:35:11.720 --> 1:35:14.519 There's no question a top ten defense, but they feel 1:35:14.560 --> 1:35:17.400 Micah Parsons can maybe push them over the top. He 1:35:17.560 --> 1:35:20.559 gives them, you know, he makes the four man rush 1:35:20.840 --> 1:35:23.960 effective in terms of pass rush and that's something that 1:35:24.000 --> 1:35:27.439 they struggled with here. Ago and Jeff Hafley, the defensive 1:35:27.439 --> 1:35:31.360 coordinated at a tremendous job of generating pass rush pressure 1:35:31.439 --> 1:35:34.120 and getting sacked, but he had to do it with 1:35:34.200 --> 1:35:37.840 blitzing and that type of thing. They're more prone today 1:35:37.880 --> 1:35:40.800 to be a fore man pass rush and that's what 1:35:40.840 --> 1:35:43.680 they were hoping to be when all this whole thing 1:35:43.760 --> 1:35:46.920 was put together. And so Micah Parsons, he makes the 1:35:46.960 --> 1:35:48.200 people around him better. 1:35:49.000 --> 1:35:50.120 You know, up until. 1:35:49.960 --> 1:35:53.240 Last week, Rashan Gary was leading the league in sacks, 1:35:53.280 --> 1:35:57.800 and you know that's that's the difference. Having Parsons on 1:35:57.800 --> 1:36:00.479 one side and Gary on the other side. It makes 1:36:00.800 --> 1:36:03.880 Rashaan Gary much more effective because he's not facing as 1:36:03.920 --> 1:36:04.880 many double teams. 1:36:06.320 --> 1:36:10.759 To that point, and the opportunities created by the attention 1:36:10.840 --> 1:36:14.880 that Micah Persons draws. Persons has two and a half sacks, Okay, 1:36:15.479 --> 1:36:19.200 not great, not not bad, certainly, but six other Packers 1:36:19.880 --> 1:36:21.720 have sacks as well, So they have a total of 1:36:21.800 --> 1:36:24.960 seven different players who've recorded at least half a sack, 1:36:25.040 --> 1:36:27.799 and a large part of that is the attention drawn 1:36:27.880 --> 1:36:31.800 to Micah persons creating opportunities for others. It's why it 1:36:31.840 --> 1:36:34.040 was so important last Sunday for and on a day 1:36:34.040 --> 1:36:36.679 where Trey Hendrickson had a couple of sacks, they also 1:36:36.800 --> 1:36:41.080 got pressure and got sacks from Joseph Osi and Miles Murphy. 1:36:41.120 --> 1:36:44.720 It can't just be a one man team with Trey Hendrickson. 1:36:45.400 --> 1:36:48.559 Also on the Packers front from Wayne Laravie. Back in 1:36:48.640 --> 1:36:54.360 Week three, they lost in Cleveland thirteen to ten, and 1:36:54.520 --> 1:36:57.320 Dan and Lapp asked Wayne last night how that happened? 1:36:57.320 --> 1:37:00.000 How did the Cleveland Browns beat the Green Bay Packers. 1:37:00.040 --> 1:37:01.280 Here's what he said about the matchup. 1:37:02.920 --> 1:37:05.840 They had control of that game. They really did. I 1:37:05.840 --> 1:37:10.000 mean they were struggling offensively. Cleveland's defensive line dominated the 1:37:10.040 --> 1:37:13.360 Packers offensive line. The Packers have had some injuries in 1:37:13.439 --> 1:37:17.639 their offensive line. Zach Tom probably their best offensive line, 1:37:17.680 --> 1:37:19.880 been played one play in that game and went out 1:37:20.479 --> 1:37:22.760 with an injury that he came into the game with 1:37:23.680 --> 1:37:26.840 the left guard, you know Banks, whom they acquired from 1:37:26.840 --> 1:37:29.400 San Francisco, kind of a road grader in the running game. 1:37:29.439 --> 1:37:32.559 Aaron Banks missed seven games last year and he's missed 1:37:32.560 --> 1:37:37.600 two now this year. So having components of the offensive 1:37:37.680 --> 1:37:41.080 line down and having to shuffle that line against the 1:37:41.080 --> 1:37:43.600 Cleveland front that you guys saw opening I believe it 1:37:43.640 --> 1:37:47.200 was Opening Day. It's pretty good, pretty good unit, and. 1:37:47.160 --> 1:37:48.800 You want to be at your best when you're going up. 1:37:48.720 --> 1:37:49.439 Against that group. 1:37:49.680 --> 1:37:52.960 So they struggled offensively, defensively, they're in command of that 1:37:53.000 --> 1:37:56.719 ball game. And then the special team's issue occurred and 1:37:57.080 --> 1:38:00.040 they had a field goal block and boom, all of 1:38:00.040 --> 1:38:03.240 a sudden, Cleveland was back in the game and snuck 1:38:03.280 --> 1:38:03.880 away with a win. 1:38:05.720 --> 1:38:09.240 Joe Flacco obviously quarterback that game for the brown for 1:38:09.320 --> 1:38:12.000 a winning Browns team that day, he wasn't anywhere close 1:38:12.040 --> 1:38:14.479 to being great. Twenty one to thirty six, one hundred 1:38:14.479 --> 1:38:17.040 and forty two yards passing, completed, fifty eight percent of 1:38:17.040 --> 1:38:21.479 his passes, no touchdowns, one interception thrown, and two times sacked. 1:38:21.800 --> 1:38:24.639 Damn Lapaskuma last night on Bengals game Planing on ESPN 1:38:24.720 --> 1:38:28.599 fifteen thirty about the impression that Flacco made in that matchup. 1:38:29.760 --> 1:38:31.559 He can still fling it and he can still get 1:38:31.600 --> 1:38:36.040 a downfield. Two things happened in Cleveland. Number one, they 1:38:36.080 --> 1:38:38.360 were just starting to find their running back and that 1:38:38.520 --> 1:38:40.639 kid that they had drafted in the second round. 1:38:40.560 --> 1:38:42.000 Is going to be a really good runner. 1:38:42.080 --> 1:38:45.599 But they really don't have a solid round game. They 1:38:45.600 --> 1:38:49.200 couldn't protect the quarterback. They just can't protect Blacko, and 1:38:49.479 --> 1:38:52.800 that's the problem that he had. So so much of 1:38:52.840 --> 1:38:55.720 what he was doing leading into that game was checkdown 1:38:55.800 --> 1:38:59.280 stuff in really short stuff and then he hit a 1:38:59.320 --> 1:39:02.120 couple of pass against the Packers, but nothing out of 1:39:02.120 --> 1:39:04.800 the ordinary. He struggled. I mean, he did not have 1:39:04.840 --> 1:39:07.840 a great game against the Packers at all. And going 1:39:07.840 --> 1:39:10.000 to Cincinnati now and if they get him up to 1:39:10.000 --> 1:39:13.240 speed and ready to play this week, he's got better 1:39:13.320 --> 1:39:15.960 people around him to throw the football to. I mean, 1:39:16.200 --> 1:39:18.960 those two guys are number one receivers, both of them, 1:39:19.160 --> 1:39:21.760 and you know, Flaco didn't have anything close to that 1:39:21.840 --> 1:39:25.559 caliber in Cleveland. So if the Bengals can protect this guy, 1:39:25.960 --> 1:39:28.320 he can still get the ball down field accurately. 1:39:29.560 --> 1:39:33.559 That key point again, if the Bengals can protect Joe Flacco. 1:39:33.680 --> 1:39:36.960 Protection this week means stopping the menace that is michaeh 1:39:36.960 --> 1:39:39.840 Persons Ias Dave Lappa Monday done at Bengals line what 1:39:40.080 --> 1:39:41.519 makes persons so good. 1:39:41.640 --> 1:39:43.640 Here's Dave on Micah. 1:39:43.680 --> 1:39:46.160 He is a guy that can be here, there, everywhere, 1:39:46.280 --> 1:39:50.759 so beware. I mean, he is an unbelievably gifted athlete. 1:39:51.280 --> 1:39:55.280 He's got unbelievable explosion, incredible body strength. 1:39:55.760 --> 1:39:57.719 And he's not a huge guy. 1:39:57.760 --> 1:40:00.640 You know, he's maybe six' one, potentially you, know, maybe 1:40:00.800 --> 1:40:03.160 but he's, stout he's put, together he's been in the weight. 1:40:03.240 --> 1:40:07.479 Room he's got immensely strong. Legs in my, mind separates 1:40:07.560 --> 1:40:11.120 him from the rest is his. FLEXIBILITY i, mean he's 1:40:11.160 --> 1:40:13.760 like a rubber. Man he can bend man when he 1:40:13.920 --> 1:40:16.200 when he comes off the off the football and he's 1:40:16.200 --> 1:40:18.760 got that quick twitch you. Know the other thing he's 1:40:18.760 --> 1:40:21.920 got is that quick twitch deal where everything's explosive and 1:40:22.120 --> 1:40:24.560 in sudden and and he comes off that line of 1:40:24.600 --> 1:40:26.720 scrimmage and and all of a sudden he's got that 1:40:26.840 --> 1:40:29.800 hand on your shoulder and he's ripping up underneath uh 1:40:29.880 --> 1:40:34.360 with a with an arm lift and shrinking the shrinking the. 1:40:34.400 --> 1:40:37.599 Corner this guy, man when he comes around that, corner 1:40:37.760 --> 1:40:40.320 the bend that he, has it's almost like he's got 1:40:40.320 --> 1:40:42.840 his head six inches from the ground and he's still. 1:40:42.880 --> 1:40:45.200 Running you, know how the hell he does it is beyond. 1:40:45.240 --> 1:40:47.960 Me but he's a unique football, player to say the. 1:40:48.080 --> 1:40:50.400 Least he's making a lot of, money and you know 1:40:50.600 --> 1:40:52.840 a lot of people around the league think ridiculous, money 1:40:52.880 --> 1:40:55.200 too much, Money Jerry jones. FELT i, mean If Jerry 1:40:55.280 --> 1:40:57.000 jones thinks it's too much, money it's a lot of. 1:40:57.000 --> 1:40:57.280 Money. 1:40:57.400 --> 1:41:03.280 Right so you know he is moved on and HE'S i, 1:41:03.280 --> 1:41:05.360 mean they signed him to be a one man wrecking 1:41:05.439 --> 1:41:07.479 crew and The bengal's gonna have to pay a lot 1:41:07.479 --> 1:41:09.000 of attention to.

Them you, know every time it's a third 1:41:12.120 --> 1:41:14.880 down and pass rush, situation you got to put two 1:41:14.880 --> 1:41:17.960 on them guardian, center maybe a backshipping and get him 1:41:17.960 --> 1:41:18.759 out of the backfield. 1:41:18.800 --> 1:41:19.000 Late. 1:41:19.960 --> 1:41:22.720 Uh he's earned, that.

Player he's ranked the number one prospect 1:44:38.760 --> 1:44:40.800 In ohio in the class of twenty twenty. Seven he's 1:44:40.800 --> 1:44:42.760 only a, junior so he's got two more seasons of 1:44:42.840 --> 1:44:45.559 high school baseball. Left but how about this in? Football 1:44:46.080 --> 1:44:49.080 last year for The, braves he was a running back 1:44:49.120 --> 1:44:51.760 and he ran for over twenty two hundred yards and 1:44:51.880 --> 1:44:55.720 thirty four. Touchdowns But John, rodenberg the, coach, said you, 1:44:55.760 --> 1:44:57.479 know we don't really have a.
