This is Chick Ludwig and I'm 0:01:14.600 --> 0:01:18.880 alongside Bengals legendary kicker Jim Breach, the leading scorer in 0:01:18.959 --> 0:01:22.800 franchise history, and we're breaking down the Bengals thirty seven 0:01:22.840 --> 0:01:27.240 to fourteen victory over the Arizona Cardinals like a wrecking ball. 0:01:28.040 --> 0:01:29.399 Mike mills Is are awesome. 0:01:29.440 --> 0:01:33.440 On site engineer Liam Tomlinson is producing back in our 0:01:33.480 --> 0:01:40.680 Kenwood studios Wings, Rings, burgers, sandwiches, salads, appetizers, drink specials, 0:01:40.959 --> 0:01:43.960 Wings and Rings has it all. And Jim and I 0:01:44.000 --> 0:01:47.640 are here at Beckett Ridge Plum Square in Westchester until 0:01:47.680 --> 0:01:51.000 eight thirty tonight, and you are invited And if you 0:01:51.040 --> 0:01:54.040 can't be here in person, please join us by calling 0:01:54.360 --> 0:01:57.080 five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven thousand. 0:01:57.240 --> 0:02:00.520 Or one eight hundred the Big one Breach. 0:02:00.840 --> 0:02:04.520 We know what the naysayers are thinking, that this is 0:02:04.560 --> 0:02:09.560 another meaningless victory against a bad team, But what it 0:02:09.680 --> 0:02:13.480 says to me is it's a reminder of what might 0:02:13.520 --> 0:02:16.919 have been, what could have been, and hopefully what will 0:02:17.000 --> 0:02:25.440 be in twenty twenty six for the Cincinnati Bengals. 0:02:23.160 --> 0:02:25.840 WHENSDA and I easy to come by, check correct And 0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:28.079 these last two weeks have been pretty amazing. And yea, yeah, 0:02:28.080 --> 0:02:30.440 you know, I understand what nay sayers are saying, and 0:02:30.480 --> 0:02:33.520 I understand the reason behind it. But the growth of 0:02:33.560 --> 0:02:36.519 the defense over the last several weeks has got to 0:02:36.520 --> 0:02:39.080 be exciting for fans to see that they're they're getting 0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:44.480 better and got to be encouraged by that because it's happening. Yes, 0:02:44.680 --> 0:02:50.120 but did you realize even though okay, they had seven 0:02:50.200 --> 0:02:53.680 straight losses the Arizona Cardinals, they also had the seventh 0:02:53.720 --> 0:02:58.040 best passing passing team in the league. McBride is a 0:02:58.040 --> 0:03:01.240 great player, Wilson is a really nice player. They've got 0:03:01.720 --> 0:03:04.360 Harrison out on you know house Daves Harrison out there, 0:03:05.400 --> 0:03:09.680 and yet they threw for just the set through for 0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:12.280 just over two hundred yards. Their offense has actually played 0:03:12.280 --> 0:03:15.400 better offensively since he took over. Now, their defense has 0:03:15.440 --> 0:03:17.320 not played well, So that's why they lost seven in 0:03:17.320 --> 0:03:21.679 a row. However, ninety two of those came on the 0:03:21.760 --> 0:03:24.960 last drive with almost all second teamers in and that 0:03:25.040 --> 0:03:27.480 took him fifteen fifteen plays to get there. 0:03:27.720 --> 0:03:31.000 That's exactly right. Yes, the Bengals improved to six and ten. 0:03:31.720 --> 0:03:35.080 It's their second two game winning streak of the season. 0:03:35.440 --> 0:03:39.839 The first two games of the season were victories and 0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:45.840 Arizona falls. Wow, three and thirteen, eight straight losses. They've 0:03:45.880 --> 0:03:51.080 played over eighty players this year, just decimated by injuries. 0:03:50.800 --> 0:03:54.800 And that amazing when it kind of snowballs. So with 0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:58.000 injuries and it seems like it starts happening and you 0:03:58.040 --> 0:04:01.000 start losing, and obviously there's more injuries, and it's just 0:04:01.400 --> 0:04:04.800 it's something you can't you can't, you can't stop, and 0:04:04.840 --> 0:04:06.560 you hope you can find somebody along the way. Of 0:04:06.560 --> 0:04:09.800 those eighty players, maybe they found somebody that can help 0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:12.320 him next year, because right now, obviously I'm in there 0:04:12.320 --> 0:04:14.800 an eight game losing streak, and it's that fun going 0:04:14.840 --> 0:04:15.360 to work. 0:04:15.400 --> 0:04:19.039 A little bit of revenge here against Jacoby Brissett because 0:04:19.400 --> 0:04:22.600 he was the quarterback for the New England Patriots last 0:04:22.640 --> 0:04:24.240 year in that opening game. 0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:26.960 The Bengals had no business losing. 0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:28.279 Mean that preseason game. 0:04:29.440 --> 0:04:32.640 Yeah, no, kid, But he's beaten the Bengals a couple times. 0:04:32.800 --> 0:04:35.040 Well, he's played with enough teams, he's had enough opportunity. 0:04:35.560 --> 0:04:39.520 He sure has, he sure has. But we are spoiled 0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:43.720 by Joe Burrow. There's no doubt about it. Zach Taylor, 0:04:43.760 --> 0:04:46.120 head coach, talked about it after the game. His ability 0:04:46.160 --> 0:04:50.200 to diagnose, especially on third down and get the ball 0:04:50.320 --> 0:04:55.159 to the right player just incredible. Twenty four of thirty 0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:58.160 one passing three hundred and five yards. He did get 0:04:58.200 --> 0:05:01.359 Zack three times, but two touchdowns a long game of 0:05:01.400 --> 0:05:04.240 thirty nine yards to tee a passer. 0:05:03.960 --> 0:05:07.440 Rating of one twenty nine point one. We love Joe Burrow. 0:05:08.520 --> 0:05:12.359 He gets everybody today, particularly guy they're they're you know, 0:05:12.440 --> 0:05:14.760 Chase has sixty yards and that's the most and he 0:05:14.800 --> 0:05:17.719 goes over three hundred yards. So that's amazing to get 0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:20.360 that many guys that many yards. But the one thing 0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:24.479 I was down there, it was so windy. Yes, the 0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:28.240 goalposts were swaying back and forth. And to throw the 0:05:28.279 --> 0:05:31.200 ball that as accurately as accurately as he did was 0:05:31.279 --> 0:05:34.279 amazing because this was a tough day to throw the ball. 0:05:34.480 --> 0:05:36.600 And that was probably one of the reasons why Evan 0:05:36.680 --> 0:05:40.080 McPherson uh missed a uh missed an extra point. 0:05:40.200 --> 0:05:42.160 Possibly he yanked it left. 0:05:42.040 --> 0:05:44.400 He pulled it, pulled it, yeah, And I think it's 0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:47.360 because he pulled it, yes, But but the end was 0:05:47.400 --> 0:05:49.479 a could have been a factor because it really was 0:05:50.279 --> 0:05:55.200 extremely windy. Uh. And that's throwing the ball. Kicking the ball. 0:05:55.560 --> 0:05:58.480 Wind is the biggest factor, more so than even the cold. 0:05:59.080 --> 0:06:00.880 And Evin did make a fifty seven. 0:06:01.000 --> 0:06:03.000 He did make a fifty seven yard making it look 0:06:03.000 --> 0:06:05.320 he's kicked the ball beautifully this year. He's had a really, 0:06:05.440 --> 0:06:06.320 really great season. 0:06:07.080 --> 0:06:09.440 Just some phenomenal things happen in this game. 0:06:09.560 --> 0:06:13.680 Jamar Chase catches two touchdown passes and he reaches the 0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:18.400 end zone for the first time since October sixteen. Jim, unbelievable. 0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:20.919 I didn't realize he hadn't seen the end zone in 0:06:21.000 --> 0:06:25.479 that long. How about Cody Ford. Happy twenty ninth birthday 0:06:25.760 --> 0:06:29.200 to Cody Ford. He lines up as a full back 0:06:29.600 --> 0:06:32.680 and a wide receiver. He's a three hundred and fifty 0:06:32.760 --> 0:06:37.560 pound offensive tackle and guard, and he winds up catching 0:06:37.800 --> 0:06:42.320 and rumbling twenty one yards. Had set up a touchdown 0:06:42.520 --> 0:06:45.520 run by Chase Brown. So incredible. 0:06:46.240 --> 0:06:49.279 I was going for he was going for the end zone, Yes. 0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:49.400 He was. 0:06:49.600 --> 0:06:51.920 He would have done anything to get in the end zone. 0:06:51.920 --> 0:06:52.960 He absolutely would have. 0:06:53.080 --> 0:06:59.360 And finally, rookie defensive end Shamar Stewart generates his first 0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:02.359 sack of the sea. So he lifts his arms to 0:07:02.400 --> 0:07:04.360 the heavens. It finally happened. 0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:07.920 So just a lot of Miles Murphy. He had a 0:07:08.000 --> 0:07:10.560 nice stack he did. Yes, Okay, I give a lot 0:07:10.560 --> 0:07:12.600 of credit to the defensive backfield because a few of 0:07:12.600 --> 0:07:15.880 those recovered sacks. Yes, but they just kept going, keep going, 0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:18.880 and keep going, and they kept closing in and finally 0:07:18.960 --> 0:07:21.760 they came up with the sacks and it was really 0:07:21.800 --> 0:07:24.080 impressive defense. I mean two our thirty three yards all 0:07:24.160 --> 0:07:26.920 day too. Phenomenal defensive effort. 0:07:26.600 --> 0:07:29.080 Today, and people are going to want to know, Jim, 0:07:29.720 --> 0:07:31.360 what's this all about. 0:07:31.960 --> 0:07:33.520 Uh, you want to finish the year strong. 0:07:33.760 --> 0:07:36.480 Like you mentioned, no, victory is easy to come by 0:07:36.520 --> 0:07:39.960 in the National Football League. The Cleveland Browns come in 0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:44.800 here next week after upsetting the Pittsburgh Steelers today. Oh, 0:07:44.800 --> 0:07:47.040 we feel bad about that though, Oh I know, Brown's 0:07:47.080 --> 0:07:50.400 always played the Steelers tough. And then next week in 0:07:50.560 --> 0:07:55.880 Pittsburgh the Ravens and the Steelers with a winner take 0:07:55.920 --> 0:07:58.760 off for the AFC North and a trip to the postseason. 0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:03.080 Yeah. This is the thing that makes it disappointing the 0:08:03.160 --> 0:08:06.720 way the season is gone. The division was very gettable, 0:08:07.920 --> 0:08:10.480 The conference is very gettable this year. I think in 0:08:10.600 --> 0:08:14.400 Jacksonville right now, probably playing as well as anybody. I'm 0:08:14.440 --> 0:08:17.240 going into Denver last week and putting it on Denver 0:08:17.280 --> 0:08:21.960 pretty well. So it was it's just not a good 0:08:21.960 --> 0:08:24.200 season where they we just couldn't get their defense together. 0:08:25.480 --> 0:08:28.040 Hey, it's awesome to be here at Wings and Rings. 0:08:28.080 --> 0:08:31.880 Beckett Ridge.

Macy really taking care of us. 0:09:20.480 --> 0:09:23.040 And here I keep bugging Jim Breach while he's trying 0:09:23.080 --> 0:09:26.559 to eat his It looks like an awesome Caesar salad there, Jim. 0:09:26.920 --> 0:09:28.240 It's a Southwest salad. 0:09:28.440 --> 0:09:32.560 Southwest salad, all right, fantastic with to be specific with 0:09:32.640 --> 0:09:36.480 potato wedges. Oh yeah, fantastic, really good guys, I got. 0:09:36.280 --> 0:09:37.160 Friends here tonight. 0:09:37.720 --> 0:09:44.120 Outstanding Susan Richardson, Nancy Christophoe and her daughter Man fantastic. 0:09:44.520 --> 0:09:51.400 Appreciate everybody coming out. And we've got Pat in Redding. Pat, 0:09:51.440 --> 0:09:52.840 you've got to lead us off again. 0:09:53.480 --> 0:09:54.240 Bring it to a. 0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:56.640 Strong Pat All. 0:09:57.040 --> 0:10:00.520 Well, Look, it was great to have He's in a 0:10:00.600 --> 0:10:04.800 row where you could actually relax in the fourth quarter. 0:10:05.480 --> 0:10:09.080 It's been an awfu way long time. The offense played great, 0:10:09.280 --> 0:10:13.920 the defense was very good. Now you look back at 0:10:13.960 --> 0:10:20.079 the Jets, Bear, New England and Buffalo games, especially the 0:10:20.200 --> 0:10:22.360 Jets and the Bears, and you wonder. 0:10:22.240 --> 0:10:24.840 What the season would have been like if we had. 0:10:24.880 --> 0:10:31.040 Only an average defense. Now you're gonna call me home fayer, 0:10:31.760 --> 0:10:34.880 You're gonna call me an a sayer. But if we 0:10:34.960 --> 0:10:38.680 have this good ending and Mike Brown has another excuse 0:10:38.800 --> 0:10:43.800 to do nothing about the coaching or the drafting, you know, 0:10:43.880 --> 0:10:45.720 and if you want to call me an a sayer, 0:10:45.760 --> 0:10:48.840 I'm going to ask you to want both Zach and 0:10:49.080 --> 0:10:53.840 Duke Cobn back in charge of the Bengals next year. 0:10:57.520 --> 0:11:02.360 Jim, I don't see any changes in the coaching staff. 0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:06.360 I really don't, at least Zach Taylor. Okay, there might 0:11:06.400 --> 0:11:12.840 be an assistant move on whatever, But I see the 0:11:12.920 --> 0:11:16.400 defensive coordinator and the offensive coordinator both coming back here 0:11:16.440 --> 0:11:21.400 next year. This club needs more protection for Joe Burrow 0:11:22.240 --> 0:11:25.600 Orlando Brown. I believe the left offensive tackle has one 0:11:25.679 --> 0:11:26.320 year left. 0:11:26.679 --> 0:11:27.560 You could look at. 0:11:27.400 --> 0:11:31.439 That position and we can't be naive enough to think 0:11:31.800 --> 0:11:35.760 just because we've seen some defensive improvement that that unit 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:38.200 is going to be okay. 0:11:38.320 --> 0:11:40.120 No, it needs an overhaul. 0:11:40.920 --> 0:11:45.800 You need defensive linemen, you need linebackers, and you need 0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:50.480 safeties and corners. You can't have enough of defense. They're 0:11:50.480 --> 0:11:52.720 going to add to that unit. There's no doubt about it. 0:11:52.800 --> 0:11:53.360 Jim Breach. 0:11:53.760 --> 0:11:57.199 True, you know, I think particularly the defensive line, if 0:11:57.200 --> 0:12:00.280 you can if you can get penetration, if you can 0:12:00.320 --> 0:12:04.160 get up the field, getting quarterbacks faces, it makes the linebackers, 0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:07.920 defensive backs their their job becomes much easier in terms 0:12:07.960 --> 0:12:11.280 of trying to cover somebody, how quickly the ball comes out, 0:12:11.720 --> 0:12:18.320 all those things. But over the last several games, yes, 0:12:18.360 --> 0:12:22.240 they have improved dramatically, and there's some people playing really well. 0:12:22.320 --> 0:12:24.920 DJ Turner dex Hill has come on, played really well. 0:12:25.040 --> 0:12:28.280 Jayalen Davis going into the slot has played really well. 0:12:29.800 --> 0:12:33.240 Jordan Battle has played well. Gino Stone did another one 0:12:33.280 --> 0:12:37.319 of those houdinny things on Wilson down the sideline and 0:12:38.679 --> 0:12:40.719 completely whipped on the guy. The same thing he did 0:12:40.760 --> 0:12:43.800 the Lovelin and the Bear game. Now, you can't tell 0:12:43.800 --> 0:12:46.199 me they're not in the locker room the what IFFs. 0:12:46.360 --> 0:12:48.320 I guarantee you there. And they're thinking, oh my gosh, 0:12:49.040 --> 0:12:51.920 that's the you know, the Bears those games, I mean, 0:12:52.480 --> 0:12:54.800 we'd have a shot and the other I mean, it's 0:12:55.080 --> 0:12:58.720 it's frustrating to have things like that happen in games 0:12:58.720 --> 0:13:02.480 you have under control. And Baltimore, I mean Buffalo, they're 0:13:02.520 --> 0:13:05.120 up double digits at all three of those games in 0:13:05.200 --> 0:13:10.400 the fourth quarter and that is unbelievably frustrating. They had 0:13:10.400 --> 0:13:15.280 the same problem last year. It has improved. It has improved, 0:13:15.280 --> 0:13:20.360 Miles Murphy has improved. Yes, they need some help in 0:13:20.400 --> 0:13:23.199 the middle of the defense. In that you know, Slayton 0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:26.480 did a nice job today. He had a sack. You've 0:13:26.480 --> 0:13:29.120 got to control that middle. If you can control that medal, 0:13:29.440 --> 0:13:31.000 it can help these young guy, the guys on the 0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:35.080 outside get up the field. And yeah, they can't. They 0:13:35.120 --> 0:13:38.960 can't sit on their hands and whether yeah, I think 0:13:38.960 --> 0:13:42.400 they gotta make a decision with is Duke Tobin the guy, 0:13:43.559 --> 0:13:46.840 and I give him some credit on the If you 0:13:46.880 --> 0:13:49.960 look back to the twenty twenty three draft, Miles Murphy 0:13:49.960 --> 0:13:52.120 now is coming on. DJ Turner was in that draft. 0:13:52.360 --> 0:13:54.120 There's some there's some good players that came out of 0:13:54.120 --> 0:13:56.360 that draft that they could build on. But for the 0:13:56.360 --> 0:13:58.440 most part the last several years, the drafts have not 0:13:58.480 --> 0:13:58.920 been great. 0:14:00.600 --> 0:14:01.560 Yeah, we understand it. 0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:05.880 I asked you a question about a meaningful game this week, 0:14:05.960 --> 0:14:09.320 which is Ohio STATEOT. 0:14:09.559 --> 0:14:14.280 I'm worried as an Ohio State Buckeye fan. They are 0:14:14.320 --> 0:14:18.800 a notoriously slow starting team. Teams have even though they've 0:14:18.840 --> 0:14:22.720 got a great defense, teams have run on them, including 0:14:23.720 --> 0:14:29.120 Michigan early in that game. Miami's got a lightning quick 0:14:29.280 --> 0:14:35.480 defensive line and the turning The biggest question in that 0:14:35.640 --> 0:14:38.480 game is Ohio State's offensive line. 0:14:38.560 --> 0:14:41.080 If they can hold up and protect. 0:14:40.720 --> 0:14:46.240 Julian Saying and create running space for Bo Jackson and 0:14:46.520 --> 0:14:51.320 their young running backs, I'll feel good. But the defensive 0:14:51.440 --> 0:14:57.640 ends Ruben Bain Junior and Akeem Mesador are are awesome, 0:14:58.000 --> 0:15:01.600 and Miami's playing with house mind. They're playing with house money. 0:15:01.640 --> 0:15:04.240 No one expected them to be here. Ohio State, the 0:15:04.280 --> 0:15:07.920 pressures on the Buckeyes, so nothing will shock me. I'm 0:15:08.000 --> 0:15:11.360 stunned that it's a nine and a half point Ohio 0:15:11.400 --> 0:15:14.520 State favored by I'm just stunned by that. 0:15:15.440 --> 0:15:19.320 Are they going to do anything to change the fact 0:15:19.320 --> 0:15:21.360 that they have to wait so long to play their 0:15:21.400 --> 0:15:22.520 first playoff game? 0:15:23.120 --> 0:15:24.920 That's ridiculous. 0:15:25.840 --> 0:15:28.560 It's uh, it seems like forever. 0:15:29.400 --> 0:15:31.680 Well, it's just like if you we're playing in the 0:15:31.760 --> 0:15:34.120 rose ball, you would have that time off. 0:15:34.200 --> 0:15:36.320 So it is a good couple of weeks. 0:15:36.640 --> 0:15:38.760 And it's not like the first time they've ever had 0:15:38.800 --> 0:15:41.320 to do it. That's right, if you only did it 0:15:41.360 --> 0:15:42.800 for the first time trying to figure out what to 0:15:42.840 --> 0:15:44.040 do during that period. 0:15:43.920 --> 0:15:46.600 Pat, I hope you'll continue to listen because before we're 0:15:46.680 --> 0:15:49.360 off the air tonight, we Jim Breach and I are 0:15:49.400 --> 0:15:55.160 going to discuss the NFL versus the college football with 0:15:55.480 --> 0:16:01.080 viewership on TV. We're going to talk about that because yeah, yes, 0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:08.760 something has to something needs to change. It really does, 0:16:09.000 --> 0:16:13.680 because the NFL is going to steamroll you no matter 0:16:13.720 --> 0:16:17.200 who you are on television. So we're going to talk 0:16:17.200 --> 0:16:19.200 about that before we get off the air today. But 0:16:19.280 --> 0:16:22.880 thank you so much, Pat, all right, appreciate it, and 0:16:22.960 --> 0:16:29.400 do we have Bryson and Anderson. Yes you do, all right, Bryson, 0:16:29.560 --> 0:16:34.080 the next, the next, Lance McAllister right here, Bryceon. 0:16:34.680 --> 0:16:38.960 Well, thank you. And a lot of fans they've been saying, oh, 0:16:39.120 --> 0:16:41.120 it's it's just the Cardinals are a horrible team. 0:16:41.320 --> 0:16:42.600 But they did a lot of things right. 0:16:42.680 --> 0:16:45.120 Even if the Cardinals didn't have guys like Kyler Murray 0:16:45.200 --> 0:16:48.280 or Trade Benson. But in any league alone, Lettle of 0:16:48.360 --> 0:16:50.640 the NFL, will win is a win and it's toughly 0:16:50.640 --> 0:16:53.040 gonna win in the NFL. They made the Cardinals one dimensional. 0:16:53.400 --> 0:16:55.760 The big screw was actually cooking with Jamar and they 0:16:55.760 --> 0:16:56.840 were getting open in space. 0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:04.960 And when you can run the ball like Chase Brown 0:17:05.000 --> 0:17:08.359 did today, run and catch the ball, Wow, it just 0:17:08.480 --> 0:17:13.159 makes a quarterbacks job much easier when you're when you're 0:17:13.200 --> 0:17:13.720 running the ball. 0:17:13.760 --> 0:17:17.880 I would say the Cardinals offense is better with Jakobe 0:17:17.880 --> 0:17:21.280 Burssett running it than with Kyler Murray. Their offense has 0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:25.359 been much better after Murray went out, and he has 0:17:25.400 --> 0:17:28.240 struggled the last several years. He has he has moments right, 0:17:28.240 --> 0:17:31.800 and the guys i't believe he's incredibly talented. But Brissett 0:17:32.080 --> 0:17:33.960 runs the offense the way it was intended to be 0:17:34.040 --> 0:17:38.400 run and they've over up until this week, really moved 0:17:38.400 --> 0:17:40.159 the ball through the through the air. They've thrown the 0:17:40.200 --> 0:17:42.720 ball really well. The Bengals just shut him down in 0:17:42.720 --> 0:17:43.600 all phases today. 0:17:43.760 --> 0:17:47.360 There were Buckeyes all over that field for the Arizona Cardinals. 0:17:47.480 --> 0:17:49.880 I was kind of found myself kind of pulling for him. 0:17:50.320 --> 0:17:56.720 Cody Simon was was incredible. And uh, hey, Marvin Harrison 0:17:56.800 --> 0:18:00.159 Junior has been fighting with a heel injury. He's just 0:18:00.160 --> 0:18:02.120 a shell of himself right now. 0:18:02.600 --> 0:18:05.920 So you're a wide receiver and your feet hurt. Oh, 0:18:05.920 --> 0:18:06.560 that's trouble. 0:18:06.680 --> 0:18:09.399 It's real, it really is, all right, Bryce, and I 0:18:09.440 --> 0:18:12.959 want to wish you and your family a very happy 0:18:13.000 --> 0:18:15.040 New Year you j J. 0:18:15.240 --> 0:18:17.120 Thanks Bryson, thanks so much. 0:18:17.440 --> 0:18:21.120 And we've got time to go down to beautiful Central 0:18:21.200 --> 0:18:22.600 Kentucky to Lexington. 0:18:23.280 --> 0:18:26.160 Is this Tiffany? 0:18:27.119 --> 0:18:35.040 Hey Tiffany, Hello, Hello, long time day nights older and 0:18:35.160 --> 0:18:39.800 a listener, so. 0:18:37.920 --> 0:18:39.480 Thank you for taking my call. By I do have 0:18:39.480 --> 0:18:43.040 a question with our young guys that seem to have 0:18:43.160 --> 0:18:46.480 come up a little bit with the defense. They're getting better. 0:18:47.440 --> 0:18:51.040 What do you do with Trey Henderson? Now that's my question, 0:18:51.160 --> 0:18:53.800 what do you do with Tray. 0:18:54.000 --> 0:18:57.000 You know, I would offer him a contract, but nothing 0:18:57.200 --> 0:19:00.800 nowhere near what he made this year. He fleeced him 0:19:00.880 --> 0:19:07.040 for thirteen more million dollars to what twenty nine million? Okay, 0:19:07.320 --> 0:19:10.680 So I would offer him ten or eleven million and 0:19:11.440 --> 0:19:13.240 take it or leave it someone else. 0:19:13.880 --> 0:19:14.960 Let someone else pay you. 0:19:15.800 --> 0:19:18.879 So he's working right now on getting healthy for his 0:19:18.920 --> 0:19:21.280 next contract. He's out for the rest of the year 0:19:21.880 --> 0:19:23.320 with a variety of injuries. 0:19:23.920 --> 0:19:26.760 But all right, that's going to be the difficult part. 0:19:27.440 --> 0:19:32.680 Are these guys on the outside Osai, who's out, Miles Murphy, 0:19:32.880 --> 0:19:37.440 Cedric sat Cam sample. Have those guys make made enough 0:19:37.480 --> 0:19:41.800 of a jump that you can discount what Trey Hendricks 0:19:41.840 --> 0:19:44.400 it brings to the table. You know, Trey goes through, 0:19:44.800 --> 0:19:48.360 he gets hurt. TJ. Watt goes to the same thing. 0:19:48.359 --> 0:19:51.720 He gets he gets a nice, a great contract, and 0:19:51.800 --> 0:19:54.440 he gets hurt. And they're both in their early thirties. 0:19:55.480 --> 0:19:58.280 How does that look? How is that viewed? Trey hasn't 0:19:58.280 --> 0:20:01.280 really he's played over the years he's been out there. Uh, 0:20:01.320 --> 0:20:04.240 this was an injury that obviously it just wouldn't heal. 0:20:05.359 --> 0:20:09.800 But that's good. That's gonna be the biggest decision defensively 0:20:10.440 --> 0:20:12.800 because that frees up if he doesn't come back, that 0:20:12.840 --> 0:20:14.639 freezes a lot of money. What do you do with 0:20:14.680 --> 0:20:15.200 that money? 0:20:15.320 --> 0:20:15.560 Yes? 0:20:15.800 --> 0:20:18.040 Do you you get it? I think you have to 0:20:18.040 --> 0:20:20.920 do something with DJ Turner before it gets too expensive. 0:20:21.640 --> 0:20:24.200 You know, some of these young guys that are showing 0:20:24.440 --> 0:20:27.880 that they can really play, don't wait until they hit 0:20:27.920 --> 0:20:31.920 their their last year and don't pay them like changing 0:20:32.080 --> 0:20:34.080 all these other guys. They wait and wait and wait, 0:20:34.560 --> 0:20:36.320 and then they get more and more expensive. Get them 0:20:36.320 --> 0:20:39.719 while they're they're cheaper, and that we can free up 0:20:39.760 --> 0:20:42.879 money for a free agent, couple of free agencies. You know, 0:20:42.920 --> 0:20:46.840 guys in free agency, it's that's always the tough part. 0:20:46.680 --> 0:20:49.240 Of it is a tough decision here that they're gonna 0:20:49.240 --> 0:20:52.240 have to make. I I believe they will offer a 0:20:52.400 --> 0:20:55.480 great uh a contract. It's not going to be a 0:20:55.520 --> 0:20:57.920 three or a four year deal, maybe a two. 0:20:58.440 --> 0:21:01.160 But what a frankchiz tag? 0:21:01.400 --> 0:21:02.040 Could I do it for you? 0:21:04.359 --> 0:21:04.760 All right? 0:21:04.880 --> 0:21:07.160 Hey, we'll address that, Tiffany when we come back.

Last 0:22:45.400 --> 0:22:47.800 week it was forty five to twenty one over the 0:22:47.800 --> 0:22:52.200 Miami Dolphins. This week thirty seven to fourteen. Man with 0:22:52.359 --> 0:22:54.280 this offense is click and it is special. 0:22:54.800 --> 0:22:56.320 It really is. It's as good as there is in 0:22:56.359 --> 0:23:01.000 the league. And lately it's really think about him off again, 0:23:01.080 --> 0:23:04.480 shut out, correct and then done pretty well since the 0:23:04.560 --> 0:23:05.240 last two weeks. 0:23:06.119 --> 0:23:06.639 No doubt. 0:23:06.680 --> 0:23:09.800 It just shows that the team you do play doesn't 0:23:09.800 --> 0:23:11.320 matter who your opponent. 0:23:11.160 --> 0:23:12.359 Is, no doubt about that. 0:23:12.520 --> 0:23:15.280
