1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,160 Speaker 1: Decent, guaranteed human. 2 00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:19,439 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers was a full participant at practice today and 3 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:24,360 Speaker 2: yesterday and today Mike Tomlin said he has no designation, 4 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:28,400 Speaker 2: which means he's gonna go on Sunday when the Steelers 5 00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:34,240 Speaker 2: hosts Buffalo, Aaron Rodgers is gonna play. The usual suspects 6 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 2: are rejoicing, and hey, me too. I think Rogers has 7 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 2: a better choice than Mason Rudolph, although the margin between 8 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 2: the two is a lot more narrow than most of 9 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:48,320 Speaker 2: you would care to acknowledge. Rogers is six and four 10 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 2: this year, an undrangeous play, a C plus on the year. 11 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:59,280 Speaker 2: But Detroit Looston home to Green Bay yesterday, and usual 12 00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 2: suspects are like, the Steelers can. 13 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:02,319 Speaker 1: Go there and get a win. 14 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 2: Baltimore got killed by Cincinnati yesterday at Baltimore, so the 15 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 2: usual suspects are like, well, the Steelers can. 16 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 1: Go there and get a win. 17 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 2: But me, I see zero optimism about the Steelers legit optimism. 18 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 2: But maybe Baltimore will just lose more. Maybe Baltimore just 19 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 2: keeps losing. The Steelers win just enough and they win. 20 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:35,759 Speaker 2: Would turned out unexpectedly to be a really really bad division. 21 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 2: Like I said, the Ravens lost to Cincinnati last night. 22 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 2: Burrow wasn't great coming back from that turf toe first 23 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 2: game since he was sidelined, but Baltimore just kept turning 24 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 2: the ball over and over and over and over. Four 25 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 2: turnovers on the night, and all Burrow had to do 26 00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 2: was pick up scraps. Was actually pretty easy for him. Okay, 27 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 2: so I've rejuvenated my optimism. Steelers are gonna win out 28 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 2: twelve and five, no problem. I like that Detroit Green 29 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 2: Bay game because they played Grene Van Fleet at a 30 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 2: couple commercial breaks. Might call them at Triple Live dot com, 31 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 2: which I spoke about at length on Wednesday show about 32 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,959 Speaker 2: what the Steelers should change. It got the expected response, 33 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 2: you don't know ball, and okay, maybe not actually acknowledged 34 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 2: in the column that that's a possibility that I don't 35 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 2: know ball, but neither do the Steelers. Loo can Darnell 36 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 2: Washington and the jumbo package on bench? Darnell I ditched 37 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 2: the jumbo package. Mount Washington has done barely anything, but hey, 38 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 2: Mount Washington and the real tight ends have been minimized 39 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 2: mouth and to it makes zero sense. Bench the fat 40 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 2: kid and play the real tight ends and with that 41 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 2: jumbo package, you know you got first round picks. 42 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 1: At both tackles. 43 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 2: If you can't run the ball effectively out of a 44 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 2: normal set, that's on you. Matt Williamson had one of 45 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:27,079 Speaker 2: his killer tweets where he uses stats and numbers to 46 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 2: just excoriate the Steelers. The Steelers are just one of 47 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 2: four teams to lead in every game. They're six and 48 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 2: five and the other teams are combined twenty five and eight. 49 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: Yikes. 50 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 2: But hey, Sunday four to twenty five, come watch the 51 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 2: game with me at the Dented Keg in Mars. It's 52 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 2: a classy joint. 53 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: Upscale. 54 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 2: Actually it's not that upscale, but more upscale. It's what 55 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 2: you would want for a man of my staff. So 56 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 2: join me at the Denni Keke and Mars for the 57 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 2: Steeler gave sunny and I think the Steelers will win 58 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 2: because Buffalo ate that good. Like I said, twelve and five, 59 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 2: let's talk to Tommy Radio. 60 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: Tom. 61 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 2: I know we know Rogers is going to play. Did 62 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 2: he take any snaps under center? Do we know that? 63 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 1: I can't find that out. 64 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 3: I haven't been able to be definitively told yet he 65 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 3: did take a snap under center or not. I have 66 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,679 Speaker 3: been told that the way he was pitching the ball 67 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 3: in practice was really awkward. It was like this like 68 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 3: backhand with the right hand, trying to toss it out 69 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,359 Speaker 3: to the running backs. Every handoff that he's done this 70 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 3: week in practice has been with the right hand, so 71 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 3: if he's had to cross the body, he's crossed the body. 72 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 3: I just think this is going to look really awkward 73 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 3: on Sunday, But like you said, they might win anyway, 74 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 3: just because the Bills aren't very good and they're missing 75 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,839 Speaker 3: both of their starting tackles so they're banged up as well. 76 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 2: They're missing their their second string, their top backup tackle too. 77 00:04:56,760 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: It's crazy four Chris Cheese. Yes, so I mean they 78 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: should be able to get down. 79 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 3: The Texans sacked Alan eight times last week on Thursday 80 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,840 Speaker 3: Night Football, so their offensive line was already leaking. Now 81 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 3: they're down to their bottom of the barrel and the 82 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 3: depth chart. So yeah, I think that things are going 83 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 3: in the Steelers favor. It's just a matter of if 84 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 3: Rogers can survive the sixty minutes with this wrist. 85 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 4: Yeah. 86 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 1: I bet he fumbles a couple of times. I think. 87 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 4: So. 88 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 3: It just first of all, your center isn't that good 89 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 3: at snapping the football, right Like, there's gonna be bad 90 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 3: snaps in the shotgun. They can't have a low snap 91 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 3: to the left side of Rogers. 92 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 2: Is it worth it to play him if you know 93 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,039 Speaker 2: he's gonna funnel a couple of guns? 94 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,919 Speaker 3: And with the Bills being so banged up and just 95 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 3: not that great in general, I really do wonder if 96 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 3: you could have survived this game with Mason Rudolph. Then again, 97 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 3: we were saying the same thing last week, and you 98 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 3: did not survive that game with Mason Rudolph. 99 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 2: Uh what did you make of Cincinnati walloping Baltimore last night? 100 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:55,279 Speaker 2: Four turnovers by Baltimore? 101 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, See that I think told the bigger story, and 102 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 3: I think it's getting a little masked by Joe Burrow's return, right, Like, 103 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 3: that's all the talk that you're hearing right now is like, Oh, 104 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 3: Joe Burrow's back. 105 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: Look at the Bengals with Burrow? Can they win out? 106 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 3: That seems to be driving the conversation when the conversation 107 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 3: should be This Ravens offense has looked really broken since 108 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson's return from injury. They've been able to survive 109 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:18,799 Speaker 3: against some bad teams. 110 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 1: Lamar looks like he's not all the way. He's not 111 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: one hundred percent. 112 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 3: And now they finally got bit by a pretty solid 113 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 3: team when Joe Burrow's out there and it looked ugly. 114 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,679 Speaker 2: If Burrow had played all year and not been hurt, 115 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:31,719 Speaker 2: would Cincinnati be leading the division? 116 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 3: I feel like I can say yes. I know the 117 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 3: sample size is small, but they're they're three and zero 118 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 3: with them. They haven't lost with Joe Burrow, given. 119 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,119 Speaker 2: How mediocre the Steamers, the Ravens of what mediocre at best? 120 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean ten and seven will win this division. 121 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 3: And I bet you a healthy Joe Burrow gets that 122 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 3: Bengals team to ten and seven. 123 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 2: If Shador Sanders had played all year, would Cleveland be 124 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 2: leading the AFC North? The AFC, you mean, not just 125 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 2: the North? Yeah, I think they'd be the number one 126 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 2: seed over New England. You see the Kendrick Perkins quote, 127 00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 2: it's amazing. Yeah, we're going to play that later, Kendrick Perkins. 128 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 2: Shador Sanders is the most powerful black man since Barack 129 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 2: Obama in two thousand and nine. 130 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 1: How could he say that with a straight face? I 131 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 1: don't know. 132 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 3: A credit to him for doing so, because he's really 133 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 3: serious about it. 134 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, he has to believe the lie. 135 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 2: Right, Chadeur's not an underdog, has been privileged this whole life. 136 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 2: There are sixteen black quarterbacks that start. He is leading 137 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 2: no kind of black revolution. We're talking about a quarterback 138 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 2: to a president too. I will say this, though, I 139 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 2: give Kendrick credit. He actually said the black thing. Everybody else, 140 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 2: like o Cho Sinko, Shannon Sharp Day nature on the 141 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 2: black thing. At least he said the black thing, which 142 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 2: made it even more ludicrous. 143 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 3: It was such an absertain thing to say president a quarterback, 144 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 3: he's more powerful, you. 145 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 2: Know, I would say is the is the is the 146 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 2: most powerful black? Mentioned Obama? Ludicrous? Oh the rapper ludicrous? Yes, 147 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 2: although he was he before Obama? 148 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:50,679 Speaker 1: I think it was before Obama. 149 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 3: But then he have the resurgence with those commercials with 150 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 3: the State Farm cro He was in some movies too, 151 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, the Fast and Furious franchise. 152 00:07:58,120 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: I think he's in. 153 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 2: It was a bunch of them, Yes, man, those movies 154 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 2: were so bad. That's Fast and Furious, But could you 155 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 2: imagine getting a part in a franchise that just keeps 156 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 2: coming back and keeps coming back like that? 157 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 3: It's the best I know. You don't like Marvel Mark. 158 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 3: But Cuba Gooding Junior was in the First Iron Man, 159 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 3: then got in a contract dispute, so they replaced him 160 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 3: with Don Cheatle, and Don Cheatle's been in like eighteen 161 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 3: movies since gets paid so much money. I mean all 162 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 3: time bag fumbled by Cuba Gooding right there. I saw 163 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 3: Neuremberg yesterday on Thanksgiving Day. Yeah, there's no sequel to that. 164 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 3: The big thing with the Steelers is like, like I said, 165 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 3: every team the Steelers play, the Citizens say they ain't 166 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 3: that good. Buffalo, Detroit, Baltimore, they ain't that good. But 167 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 3: maybe the Steelers aren't that good either. That's the thing, 168 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 3: Like both of those things are true, right because don't 169 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 3: you agree that Buffalo, Detroit and Baltimore like they're not 170 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 3: that good this year, Like something is up with those teams. 171 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 3: But the Steelers aren't the teams that are gonna swagger 172 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 3: into Detroit. 173 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 2: And yeah, for example, the Steelers. The Steelers go to Cleveland, right, Yeah, 174 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 2: they do at the end of the year, second to 175 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 2: last week. Okay, you know what Cleveland's gonna be say 176 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 2: that week, the Steelers ain't. 177 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 3: Dead good exactly, And this is something we can build 178 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 3: off of, right, Like This is a big moment for us. 179 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 3: We've been playing better under Shadour in the second half. 180 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 3: If they do. And you know, Garrett wants the sack 181 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:12,559 Speaker 3: record if he doesn't break it before then, which he 182 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 3: very well could, he wants to do it against the 183 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 3: Steelers so badly in Cleveland. 184 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 1: What the Steelers should do with TJ Watt out there tackle? 185 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:21,080 Speaker 1: Oh my god, how great would that be? 186 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:23,959 Speaker 3: Especially if like Garrett's two away and he gets one 187 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 3: in the game, you know what I mean, So you 188 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 3: can like play that card. 189 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:26,559 Speaker 1: Midway through. 190 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 2: TJ runs on and puts himself in and Tom was like, 191 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 2: what the freak he do out there? 192 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 1: Yeah? 193 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 2: Did you see Micah for green Bay yesterday? He was everywhere, 194 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 2: lines up everywhere, which Watt does not. Another reminder that 195 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 2: Watt being stubborn has caused him to have a a 196 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 2: late to mid career crisis. 197 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 3: And I was listening to a podcast that Chris Sims 198 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 3: was on before Thanksgiving and he was saying green Bay 199 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 3: bad matchup for Detroit, and watch out for pressure up 200 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 3: the middle. 201 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: That's gets in golf's kitchen. He's not good against it. 202 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:57,680 Speaker 3: So what did you see Micah Parsons do almost all 203 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 3: Game one, rushed right up the middle, had a crazy 204 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 3: amount of impact. Do you think when we fast forward 205 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 3: to Steelers at Detroit, though line want up to rush 206 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 3: up the middle to have impact against Golf? 207 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: I don't. 208 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, Russell Crowe, he's legit fat two no fat suit 209 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 2: for gearing. 210 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,559 Speaker 1: He beefed up for that. Like I think he just 211 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 1: because he's fat. 212 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 2: Now he's holding fat pro I think the Geary role 213 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 2: was just a happy coincidence. 214 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 3: He's still in his prime, huh, Like he still He 215 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 3: was great as Garing. 216 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 2: Raymi Malick was great as the psychiatrist who dealt with 217 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 2: Garry and all the Nazi war criminals. Although I got 218 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 2: to tell you when when Raymy Mallick was talking to 219 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 2: Ta Crowe, I felt like it was Freddie Mercury against 220 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 2: Gladiator one five nine. 221 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 5: It's The X's kick Ass Christmas Show with Highly Suspect Tuesday, 222 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 5: December ninth and stay je gets your tickets now at 223 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 5: w X d X dot com.

Jarry returned from injury on 231 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:29,079 Speaker 2: Wednesday and he was great. Stole the points against Buffalo 232 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 2: and Jarry's been very good all year. He looks apart 233 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 2: really sharp, and the numbers are there, uh seventh and 234 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 2: save percentage at ninety one point four thirteen thing goals 235 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 2: against the average at two point five to two. I've 236 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 2: been a big Jarry critic, but he has been so 237 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:56,319 Speaker 2: fetch recently. And here's the fun part. Edmonton is reportedly 238 00:11:56,360 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 2: interested in Jarry and he's got better stats than any 239 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:07,559 Speaker 2: Canadian goalies besides the Colorado guys. What if Jarry wind 240 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:09,679 Speaker 2: up on Edmonton playing for a Stanley Cup. I mean, 241 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 2: they've been in the final the last two years and 242 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 2: it's safe to say that the reason they haven't won 243 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 2: a Cup yet in the econom McDavid era is goaltending. 244 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 2: I'm not sure Jarry solves that, but they're smart to 245 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 2: try something different. And then Canada, I mean, Jordan Bennington's 246 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:30,959 Speaker 2: your starter. If he's better than Jarry, it's not by 247 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 2: a ton. And now the Edmonton thing, I'd make that deal, 248 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 2: I guess and dump Jarry's contract two more years on 249 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 2: top of this one added a hit of five point 250 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 2: three seven to five mil. I hesitated because he's playing 251 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 2: well now. And your goal, however, unexpected is now to 252 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 2: make the playoffs, because you have had a pretty good 253 00:12:58,720 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 2: season to date. 254 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: But A. 255 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 2: Is more shop one hundred percent ready. It didn't look 256 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 2: like it when he was up here with the Pens. 257 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 2: They want him to excel, not just go out there 258 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 2: and play. The plan was for him to dominate the 259 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 2: AHL and have that be part of his development. I 260 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 2: think they would be wise to stick to that. B 261 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,559 Speaker 2: jar is thirty. That's not old for goalie. He's had 262 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:28,479 Speaker 2: good years before. He made the all start thingy twice 263 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 2: nineteen excuse me, twenty twenty and twenty twenty two. Maybe 264 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,320 Speaker 2: this is going to be a good year for Tristan Jarry. 265 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 2: He's had those. And see if this is one of 266 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,439 Speaker 2: Jarry's good years. Well, like I said, the goal, however, unexpectedly, 267 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 2: is to make the playoffs. And I gotta tell you, 268 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 2: I normally don't like goalie tandems. I like this one. 269 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 2: Jarry and Shilloffs accepted shootouts, but. 270 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,959 Speaker 1: They seem to. 271 00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 2: Prosper with a lesser workload both of them. Tom, would 272 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 2: you trade Jari just to get rid of that contract 273 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 2: because he is playing well? 274 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,320 Speaker 3: He is playing really well, and I guess the goal 275 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 3: has changed slightly this year that you should make the 276 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,559 Speaker 3: playoffs since you were in a playoff spot on Thanksgiving. 277 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 3: For now, now, for now the goal should be that. 278 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 3: But I just I would trade Jari if Edmonton came calling. 279 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 3: I just feel like it's time to turn that page. 280 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 3: But I did hesitate when you said the thing about 281 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 3: Murrishov and how he came up and he was good, 282 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 3: but he wasn't elite great, and that's what they're hoping 283 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 3: for for him, and it's not really his fault. 284 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 1: Though maybe that's unfair to ask right now. I think 285 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: it is. I think it is. 286 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,360 Speaker 3: It's twenty one years old. But if you saw him 287 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 3: come up here and really sparkle, I mean, really look great, 288 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 3: then we'd really be like, Okay, let's go all in 289 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 3: on the direction of trading Tristan Jarry sooner or not later. 290 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 2: Well, here's the thing, Tom, Edmonton is gonna go get 291 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 2: a goaltender, so this might be your last best chance 292 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 2: to trade Jari because they have that connection where he 293 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 2: played juniors in Edmonton. I'm not sure why that should 294 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 2: mean anything, but people say it does. He won the 295 00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 2: Memorial Cop Candidate's National Junior Championship with the emmathon oil Kings. 296 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 2: There seems to be a legitimate possibility there. 297 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I would take it because even if Mirischov 298 00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 3: isn't ready right now to come up and be not 299 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 3: the guy but part of that tandem with Sheilov's at 300 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 3: the NHL level, if that's not what's best for his 301 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 3: development right now, that is your future plan in net 302 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 3: And if you can get out from that contract that 303 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 3: you have with Jari, I mean you kind of have 304 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 3: to take it, even if it might detriment your team's 305 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 3: playoff push at that point. 306 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 2: Here's where you'd get back. You get one of their 307 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 2: goalies back. They would have to do that. Skinner or 308 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 2: Picard ton they're cheap. Skinner two point six, Picard one mil, 309 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 2: and they're both on expiring deals. 310 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 3: So you could keep Mirshov still in the AHL and 311 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 3: make this deal happen and then put Skinner into the duo. 312 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 1: Well you could do that anyway. 313 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 2: Just call up Blumquist or whoever if you have to, 314 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 2: and I think you would probably get a halfway decent 315 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 2: player back, also on an expiring contract, so they could 316 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 2: make their cap balance. 317 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think everything is kind of point to that 318 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 3: being a smart thing to do for the logo. But 319 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 3: if you're in that playoff position, when this really cooks up, 320 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 3: when Edmonton, you know, says, hey, we really need this 321 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 3: to happen. Now, let's let's talk. Are you gonna be 322 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 3: willing to go that far? Are you gonna be able 323 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 3: to wit? Are you gonna be able to see the 324 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 3: long term? And how this is just makes way too 325 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 3: much sense to do in the face of the short 326 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 3: term and the team building towards a playoff spot. 327 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 2: Dupus isn't a weird spot because it's almost too late 328 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 2: to finish low enough to get a top five pick. 329 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 2: Then again, the standings are so packed. You know, if 330 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 2: the Penglins collapsed, they probably still could. But the standings 331 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 2: are packed. Like I said, that bodswill to maybe make 332 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 2: the playoffs and Sid wants to make them. 333 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: Oh, of course Sid wants to make him. 334 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 3: And even though you're packed in as far as the 335 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 3: league is concerned, where you're not that far out of 336 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 3: being in one of those bottom five spots. 337 00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: You said this the other day this week. 338 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 3: It's it's kind of like when you're trying to chase 339 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 3: a playoff spot, but in reverse, right, Like, there's just 340 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 3: so many bad teams that you have to jump over 341 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 3: to get into that bottom five that even though you 342 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:08,920 Speaker 3: look at it and they're like, what four or five 343 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 3: points out of a spot like that, there's almost half 344 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:14,160 Speaker 3: the league that they'd have to go through to suck 345 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 3: that bad to get to that point. 346 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, because it's not how many points your head 347 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 2: or behind, is how many teams you have to jump 348 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 2: over or have to jump over you And as far. 349 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,639 Speaker 3: As the league is concerned, like you sort it out 350 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:29,159 Speaker 3: league wise, they're right in the middle of the NHL 351 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 3: mushy middle or the second wild card right now, hanging 352 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:31,879 Speaker 3: on by a thread. 353 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:36,879 Speaker 2: As I uh said a moment ago, there's no dotting 354 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,399 Speaker 2: Jarry's talent. I've been very critical over his career here 355 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 2: because he makes every statement to what he needs to 356 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 2: usually in big games. But he has made two All 357 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 2: Star thingies. Uh, it's his focus that's the problem. All 358 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 2: those goals that you're in the first shot too deep 359 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:54,639 Speaker 2: in the net, YadA, YadA. But you know, in the 360 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 2: first five minutes. If you see him on top of 361 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 2: this crease and just glom angles proper, you know he's 362 00:17:58,840 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 2: gonna play good. 363 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, he is a tell kind of like a poker player, 364 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 3: right like you can tell his bluff. But I think 365 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 3: it's interesting that mus is going to him again tonight, 366 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 3: don't you, And back to back starts for Tristan Jarry. 367 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 3: That's maybe a little sign of confidence in him, maybe 368 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 3: a nod that hey, this is a true tandem here, 369 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,120 Speaker 3: but maybe you're the one A here in this one 370 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 3: B situation. Or maybe it's a test of his focus, 371 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 3: right like, hey, let's see. 372 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:24,679 Speaker 1: Maybe that's a scout here. That option I like the 373 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,399 Speaker 1: most of any that have been put forth. Yeah, maybe 374 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 1: maybe that's why it's in Columbus tonight. Taking an eye 375 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,239 Speaker 1: on him. I don't know. I mean, I don't know that. 376 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,640 Speaker 3: But or he's just playing well, he deserves to play again. 377 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 2: No, I would rotate these two. I said that earlier. 378 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:37,479 Speaker 2: I like the rotation. 379 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:38,160 Speaker 1: I like the feel. 380 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 3: Well, it is weird that they have bucked the rotation here. 381 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,160 Speaker 3: This is is it the second time they bucked the rotation? Yeah, 382 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 3: because remember they started she loves on a back to 383 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 3: back so they could get Miroshov's debut at home against 384 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 3: the Kings. 385 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 2: We got Tim Bends up next. We have information on 386 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,679 Speaker 2: whether Rogers took a snap under center or not, but 387 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 2: I won't tell you too after the break. That's what 388 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 2: we in the radio busin this call at. 389 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:09,920 Speaker 3: TASE show, Holy Mother, four Kings. 390 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 5: Good Morning is six till ten one O five nine. 391 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 1: D X is this season? When you're in the mom 392 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 1: up for men on one O five nine v X. 393 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,639 Speaker 2: Now it's time to talk to Tim Benz from the trip. Tim, 394 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 2: we know Rogers is gonna play, but I've been told 395 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,680 Speaker 2: he didn't take a snap all week under center. Does 396 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 2: that mean don't take every snap out of the shotgun? 397 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 6: I actually thought he did. I thought that was tweeted 398 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:42,919 Speaker 6: out in video not long ago after Tom Win spoke. 399 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 6: But you know, it could be bs. It could just 400 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:50,160 Speaker 6: not be true. I don't know, but you know, your 401 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 6: information versus what Tom puts out there for the public 402 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 6: consumption could be different. I don't think it's gonna matter 403 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,200 Speaker 6: all that much because I think they will do most 404 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 6: of their work in Shotgun, the only time I would 405 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 6: imagined that would come into plays in real short yardage situations, 406 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 6: maybe goal line, But irrespective of that, I think it's 407 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 6: pretty clear he wasn't ready to go last week. They 408 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 6: even had to work him up to this week. But 409 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,479 Speaker 6: it's probably best to see if this fifty to fifty 410 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:25,640 Speaker 6: proposition is worth trying this week against Buffalo as opposed 411 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:29,679 Speaker 6: to Baltimore next week, when you know the division largely 412 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 6: could be on the line. 413 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I have no problem with him playing, 414 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:36,879 Speaker 2: but I would have a problem if he fumbles a 415 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 2: bunch of times because it's too unwieldy and they don't 416 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 2: pull him out that set. I think that's up to him. 417 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 2: I don't think Tom will whatever yank Aaron Rodgers per se, 418 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 2: But if he fumbles a couple of times, Tim, that 419 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:48,880 Speaker 2: could lose the game. 420 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 6: Well, I think that's one thing mark where this injury 421 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 6: comes into play and live fire a little bit differently 422 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 6: than some others. Like if you put a quarterback out 423 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:03,360 Speaker 6: there after a concussion or an ankle injury or even 424 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 6: an arm injury of some sort and clear him to 425 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 6: play and he doesn't play, well, he's got veteran status 426 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,160 Speaker 6: like Rogers. Yeah, to your point, you're still hesitant about 427 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,120 Speaker 6: taking him out but if this is a functional thing, 428 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 6: like you can't can the ball off and you can't 429 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 6: catch a snap and it's breaking your ability to function 430 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 6: as an offense, then there's more latitude. It's just Aaron, 431 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:24,919 Speaker 6: it's not working. We've got to go with Mason to 432 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:25,880 Speaker 6: finish this thing off. 433 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 2: Tim, I gotta say it amazes me. I'm just rifling 434 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:32,359 Speaker 2: through Twitter now. No one seems to know if he 435 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 2: took snaps under center. Reporters are at practice. I know 436 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 2: they're not supposed to report, but how can that not league? 437 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:38,639 Speaker 2: How can we really not know? 438 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,640 Speaker 6: Well, I thought there was a question and a piece 439 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 6: of video that I saw, and I'll try to get 440 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 6: it to the after where he was asked and said yes. 441 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 6: But you know you're not allowed to say what you 442 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 6: saw a practice unless it's in the open portion of 443 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:55,119 Speaker 6: where stretching takes place. So there could have been some 444 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 6: people who were there. But I thought I heard it 445 00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 6: asked of Tom and I thought I heard it confirmed. 446 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 6: But although we'll check that, how. 447 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 2: About Buffalo with their starting tackles out and then their 448 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 2: best backup tackle lot I mean, the Steelers have gotten 449 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 2: breaks with injuries a lot this season, but haven't always capitalized. 450 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 6: Either with the offensive line thing. I've gotten to the 451 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 6: point mark where when I hear that offensive linemen are 452 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 6: hurt for the opposing team, I think it's bad news 453 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:23,119 Speaker 6: as supposed to good because all they do then is 454 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 6: they get so hyper focused on protecting the opposing quarterback 455 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 6: because god forbid T J. Watt have a big game 456 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 6: that they load up, they double, they chip, they keep 457 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 6: their backs in, they keep the tight ends in. And 458 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 6: oddly it feels like Watt has his better games against 459 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 6: teams that are at full help in the offensive line 460 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:42,880 Speaker 6: because coaches say, okay, I got our starters in there, 461 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:44,919 Speaker 6: they should be able to handle that guy one on 462 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 6: one more often than not, and they don't. And that's 463 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 6: when Watt has his big games and the pass rush 464 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 6: has its big games. So sometimes I've gotten this mode 465 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 6: now where I look through the other team's injury report 466 00:22:56,680 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 6: and if it says, you know, this tap out, this 467 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:02,720 Speaker 6: guard is out, this center is questionable, like, uh oh, 468 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,239 Speaker 6: the Steelers aren't getting the sack this week because they 469 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,159 Speaker 6: get so concerned about the offensive line, they change the 470 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,880 Speaker 6: game plan. They go to the shorter passing game, full 471 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,200 Speaker 6: health offensive line. The coaches are like all right, let's 472 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,920 Speaker 6: operate at full functionality, and then sometimes the Steelers wreck 473 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 6: it with their pass rush. 474 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,920 Speaker 2: What about Cincinnati killing Baltimore last night at Baltimore. If 475 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow had played all the games and not got hurt, 476 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:26,680 Speaker 2: would the Bengals be leading the AFC North. 477 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 6: Probably? Yeah. I mean they've beaten Steelers once, they beat 478 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,919 Speaker 6: the Ravens, and maybe they beat the Steelers the other 479 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 6: game if they have Burrow. That's a good point. I 480 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:41,720 Speaker 6: guess I hadn't thought of it from that perspective, but 481 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,199 Speaker 6: I mean, with the AFC North keeping everybody in it, 482 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 6: one thought that did cross my mind, is you know, 483 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 6: the Bengals really out of it or is this something 484 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 6: like we're going to see towards the end of last 485 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 6: year where they almost came into Pittsburgh playing for something 486 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:57,920 Speaker 6: because the rest they got better once Burrow got back 487 00:23:57,960 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 6: and the rest of the division sort of kept them 488 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 6: in it. I could see that being the case, So 489 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 6: I was surprised at that result. Jackson's not playing well. 490 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 6: I think he's reticent to run, he's reluctant to get 491 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 6: out of the pocket, He's not thrown with accuracy. Whatever 492 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,199 Speaker 6: version of Lamar Jackson they're putting out there to play 493 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 6: is not the version that they hope to be getting back. 494 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:25,879 Speaker 6: He's practicing on a limited basis. I think all that 495 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 6: is starting to show. 496 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 2: If Shdor Sanders had started all year for Cleveland, would 497 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:31,680 Speaker 2: the Browns be in first place in the AFC? 498 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 6: Nord I checked with Kendrick Perkins and he says, yes, how. 499 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 1: About that the most powerful black man'sin is Barack Obama? 500 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:47,639 Speaker 6: Well what does that make? Dylan Gabriel said, does that mean? 501 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,160 Speaker 6: I mean, like, is he the second most powerful white 502 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 6: man compared to Trump? Because he gets Suar on the 503 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 6: bench for most of the season. I mean like that's 504 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 6: a tough mass to come to grips with from Kendrick 505 00:24:58,359 --> 00:24:59,880 Speaker 6: Perkins there, yeah. 506 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 2: I put Ben slightly above Chester A Arthur, but blow 507 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:05,200 Speaker 2: William McKinley. 508 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 6: I heard some of those kinds. Just the Shedura conversation 509 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 6: is so unhinged, and this all goes. 510 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 1: Back It's not a black thing. It just isn't. 511 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,879 Speaker 2: He's a rich black kid and they're already sixteen starting 512 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:23,120 Speaker 2: black quarterbacks in the league. 513 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 1: It's not a black thing. 514 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,680 Speaker 6: His thing is. I mean, the only reason that narrative 515 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:33,640 Speaker 6: of black quarterback versus white quarterback is resuscitated is when 516 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,040 Speaker 6: the national media decides it wants to do it. There's 517 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 6: no basis for truth in it because of, like you said, 518 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 6: the numbers. I mean, you know, the Steelers have had 519 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 6: plenty of quarterback rooms that have had multiple black quarterbacks 520 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:48,879 Speaker 6: on the roster at the same time. You know, like 521 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:50,920 Speaker 6: this is not something that has to be talked about 522 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 6: every time, like it's groundbreaking anymore. I mean, Doug Williams 523 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,399 Speaker 6: played in that Super Bowl thirty years ago, Mark, I mean, 524 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 6: I think it's time to stop advancing that narrative like 525 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 6: everything is a first. 526 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 2: Can Josh Allen win this game Sunday by himself because 527 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 2: he might have to, and he might be able to, not. 528 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 6: By himself but with Cook. Yeah. I mean that's part 529 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 6: of the reason why I'm picking the Bills is that 530 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 6: I think it's sort of like Mike Wallace's territory when 531 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 6: he was a wide receiver. Here he's a one trick pony, 532 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 6: but his trick is pretty good. The Bills can run 533 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,439 Speaker 6: the ball with those two guys and maybe hit an 534 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:29,680 Speaker 6: occasional play beyond that or off of it, and that's it. Well, 535 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 6: that might just be enough. To beat the Steelers. I mean, 536 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 6: the Steelers are so all over the board in their 537 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:39,440 Speaker 6: run game offensively and defensively, it's difficult to predict how 538 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,640 Speaker 6: it's going to play out against good teams against the run, 539 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,400 Speaker 6: bad teams against the run. Like you know, you look 540 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 6: at what they did against Taylor with the Colts. You 541 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:49,119 Speaker 6: look at what they did against a really good team 542 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 6: rush approach with the Bears, like, well, that's a pretty 543 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,199 Speaker 6: good run defense. And then you see that Cincinnati, with 544 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 6: its thirtieth raded rush offense, put up like two hundred 545 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 6: and fifty yards against him over two games. Fifty seven 546 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 6: I think was the toll. Chase Brown looked more like 547 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:06,359 Speaker 6: Jim Brown in those two games. You know, there have 548 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:09,360 Speaker 6: been teams that don't have great rush attacks the Steelers 549 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 6: have made look above average, and then there are teams 550 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 6: that really good ones that they've made look bad. Now 551 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 6: Harmon being out, this is a bad week for Harmon 552 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 6: to be out. I think that might be an underrated 553 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:23,640 Speaker 6: conversation because everybody's focusing on Rogers, but I think that's 554 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 6: a tough loss for them, and similarly, not a good 555 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 6: week for Roderck Jones to be out because while He's 556 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 6: still got a long way to go in pass blocking. 557 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 6: I think he's sufficient enough in the run game, and 558 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 6: I would like to see them try to run the 559 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:39,359 Speaker 6: ball against a Buffalo rush defense that's been really bad 560 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:44,200 Speaker 6: and hopefully, hopefully regardless of him being out, they can, 561 00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 6: you know, use the big tight end set, have Washington 562 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 6: over there. Maybe Pete doesn't stink, we'll see, but they 563 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 6: need to control the ball on the ground as well themselves. 564 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, what about that move anders Peat's going to start 565 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 2: at left ackle with Roder Jones out as opposed to 566 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,919 Speaker 2: Spencer Anderson. Is that being done to preserve the jumbo package. 567 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:07,439 Speaker 6: Well, I don't know why it has to be that. 568 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,880 Speaker 6: I mean, I don't know why Spencer Anderson can't be 569 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,399 Speaker 6: the starting left tackle and then bump outside when you 570 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 6: have the extra guy come in. That doesn't feel like 571 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 6: the hardest thing or most difficult thing in the world 572 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 6: to work around. And I was always under the assumption 573 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:23,479 Speaker 6: ability as a tackle background that they've been using Pete 574 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:26,879 Speaker 6: Moore as a guard anyway, So it feels weird and 575 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 6: clunky to me, But they do a lot of things 576 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 6: that are like that. It's part of the reason why 577 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 6: they're starting at the potential of you know, finishing with 578 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:35,400 Speaker 6: a nine and eight or worst record. Again. 579 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 2: You know what I loved, Tim, and we've been talking 580 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 2: about this in the show so far. The Citizens. Every 581 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:45,160 Speaker 2: team the Steelers play, they go they ain't that good, 582 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 2: especially with the recent results Buffalo, Detroit, Baltimore, they ain't 583 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 2: that good. 584 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: But maybe the Steelers aren't either. 585 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 6: All that is true, Buffalo, Detroit and Baltimore aren't that good. However, 586 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 6: I mean, like those same Steeler fans ever see Miami 587 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 6: win one or two in a row and say, well, 588 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 6: maybe they don't stink so bad, or those Steeler fans 589 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 6: ever look at the one trick pony that is the 590 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 6: past rush of the Cleveland Browns and say how that's 591 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 6: gonna work in Cleveland where they've had one win in 592 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 6: the last seven years. Like Steelers fans always seem to 593 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 6: look at it from the calculus of why does opponent 594 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 6: X have a flaw that makes them deficient that the 595 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 6: Steelers can exploit, whereas opponent why, who is perceived to 596 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 6: be a significant underdog, will never have a shot of 597 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 6: beating the Steelers. It's funny how that always plays out 598 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 6: that way. 599 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 2: How would you defend Allan, I think this year Josh 600 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 2: Allen's more like Lamar than Lamar. 601 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 6: Maybe, well, I defend Josh Allen by focusing on James 602 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 6: Cook and Sal Capaccio, who frequently joins me on my 603 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 6: podcast or when I filled interview in the past Mark 604 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 6: and your show. He's the sideline guy. I've known South 605 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 6: for a long time and he's just followed that team 606 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 6: his whole life and certainly throughout all of Allen's career. 607 00:29:57,400 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 6: And he said, this is the first time since Alan 608 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 6: has become the quarterback and really gotten entrenched. Well, I 609 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 6: find it funny to even say it out loud, but 610 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 6: I feel like the first thing you got to do 611 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,480 Speaker 6: is opposing defense is stop Cook. And I thought that 612 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 6: made a lot of sense, because you know, Cook's having 613 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 6: his best season and if you can take him out 614 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:18,200 Speaker 6: of the mix, or at least minimize him, and you 615 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 6: put Allen in second, longs or third and moderates even 616 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 6: he's trying to play hero ball. He's trying to do 617 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 6: everything that he had the athletic capability to do when 618 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 6: he first came in the league but didn't know what 619 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 6: he was doing. Now he knows what he's doing. And 620 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 6: he's trying to combine those two things. The guys still 621 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 6: aren't getting open or you know, there's still not plays 622 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 6: to be made downfield or bad blocking on the offensive line. 623 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 6: He's trying to turn that into something and he can't. 624 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 6: It is really a two man show out there with 625 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 6: that offense. And to go back to the pass rush point, 626 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,000 Speaker 6: you know, like I said, the more banged up the 627 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 6: offensive line, the more my red flags go up. To 628 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:55,719 Speaker 6: make you think that they'll figure out a way to 629 00:30:55,760 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 6: neutralize the Steelers. I say that, but at the same time, man, 630 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 6: that Thursday night teph is tough to get out of 631 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:05,240 Speaker 6: my head watching what Houston did to them. Now, Houston's 632 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 6: pass rush is really good regardless they do it more 633 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 6: of a team approach, but man, that was overwhelming. So 634 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 6: I think you neutralize Allen by taking away cook first 635 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 6: and making him try to get in that hero ball 636 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 6: mode and hopefully he makes some mistakes like he did 637 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 6: against the Texans. 638 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: I think this is. 639 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 2: Like must win for the Steelers, tim. I think if 640 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 2: they lose, it feels like they're momentum is broken for good. 641 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 2: Like they'll go to Baltimore and lose the week after 642 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 2: and then just keep losing. 643 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 6: Maybe they could. I wrote about this earlier this week, 644 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 6: where I said, you know, if you were to split 645 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:40,920 Speaker 6: up the last six games, the easiest and most logical 646 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 6: thing to say is they go three and three, and 647 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 6: then they get to nine and eight, and the holy 648 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 6: streak of never having a losing season since two thousand 649 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 6: and three is still intact. But you know, it doesn't 650 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 6: usually work out that way. In the NFL. You can 651 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 6: very easily say they lose the Bills, they lose the 652 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 6: Ravens once, they lose the Lions, but they beat the 653 00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 6: Browns Dolphins, and they take the other game from Baltimore 654 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 6: in a split. Yeah, that's pretty logical, makes a lot 655 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 6: of sense, gets you to nine and eight. But if 656 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 6: you make me pick if it's not nine and eight, 657 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 6: and it pivots to eight and nine or seven and 658 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 6: ten as opposed to ten and seven or nine and eight, 659 00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 6: like I'm going the negative route, like I could see 660 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 6: it very easily becoming they lose to Baltimore twice, or 661 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 6: they drop both the games against the Lions and Bills, 662 00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 6: or yet again, they can't figure out a way to 663 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 6: win in Cleveland of all plays, something like that. They're 664 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 6: terrible on primetime. All of a sudden, they've lost their 665 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 6: three prime time games this year. Does Miami come in 666 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 6: and somehow sneak that away and everybody assumes that's a victory. 667 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 6: I just see a more cloudy path to ten and 668 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:47,840 Speaker 6: seven than I do to eight and nine. 669 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 2: Well, I think the best thing that could happen to 670 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 2: the franchise is they have a losing season. I think 671 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 2: it would get something totally meaningless out of the way, 672 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,240 Speaker 2: and maybe they would look at things more clearly, although 673 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 2: probably not be. 674 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 6: Although probably not as the catch to that. Yeah, I 675 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 6: mean I would. I would hope that it's a wake 676 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 6: up call. I would hope that it's one thing that 677 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:10,800 Speaker 6: artru the second can no longer say to himself as 678 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 6: to why they have to keep with the stability angle 679 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 6: of never moving on to the coach. Well, jeez, never 680 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 6: had a losing season. You know what logic is going 681 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:19,120 Speaker 6: to be if that were to happen, Well, he's only 682 00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:21,719 Speaker 6: had one losing season. Well, then at least one can 683 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 6: become two or three, and that might be where they 684 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 6: go after this year, because they might have just plumb 685 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 6: run out of veteran quarterbacks that you can stick in 686 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 6: for one year to resuscitate the hopes of never having 687 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 6: a losing season, and you might just have to go 688 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 6: to a rookie quarterback or some sort of rebuild plan. 689 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 6: If this one doesn't reap the results that everybody was 690 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 6: hoping for. 691 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:43,000 Speaker 1: Tim Breadstuff will do it again next week. 692 00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:44,480 Speaker 6: You got a Mark. 693 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 1: That's Tim Benz on Mark Madden. 694 00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:51,760 Speaker 2: This segment brought to us by Calusi Chevrolet, serving the 695 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh area for one hundred and seven years, and the 696 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 2: Mark Man pregame Show brought to us by the personal 697 00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 2: injury expert Sendrorovitchendrovitch and Fishman, and they got your back, 698 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 2: not your wallet.

The Monday Night for Penguins and Flyers 723 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 2: at Pittsburgh Brewing Company in Creighton. This segment brought to 724 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:41,319 Speaker 2: us by Danny's, Peter and Hogies, Pittsburgh's original oven bake 725 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:45,359 Speaker 2: togy since nineteen sixty. That's Danny's eighty eight to Bethel Park. Tom, 726 00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:46,759 Speaker 2: what do we got for today's trifector? 727 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 3: I got trefecta stats here about the Bills game coming up? 728 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:52,920 Speaker 3: Number three, Mark, you and Tim just talked about the 729 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 3: importance of shutting down James Cook and how that might 730 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 3: be the key to stopping the Buffalo Bills. Well, he's 731 00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 3: reached one hundred plus rushing yards in six games the season. 732 00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 3: They are five and one. In those games when he's 733 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,000 Speaker 3: reached one hundred plus rushing yards, he has been held 734 00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:07,080 Speaker 3: to under fifty yards in three different games though, So 735 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:10,240 Speaker 3: if you can get him into that under fifty yards category, 736 00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:12,359 Speaker 3: you have a good chance of winning. The rest of 737 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,239 Speaker 3: these stats have to do with Josh Allen, number one, 738 00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:18,279 Speaker 3: or at number two, excuse me, Allen has thrown an interception. 739 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 1: He has nine interceptions this year. 740 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,359 Speaker 3: He's thrown five of those nine picks in the last 741 00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 3: four games, and he has two each in each of 742 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:26,400 Speaker 3: the previous two games. So he's starting to turn that 743 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:28,360 Speaker 3: ball over a lot, which is something he's done throughout 744 00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:28,760 Speaker 3: his career. 745 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:31,560 Speaker 2: What he does, as Tim mentioned, when they get behind, 746 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:33,319 Speaker 2: he tries to play hero ball all the time. And 747 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 2: but I mean, who's more qualified to do exactly to 748 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 2: play hero ball, but it sometimes gets him in trouble. 749 00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:40,560 Speaker 3: Well, this stat's the one that scares me the most. 750 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 3: Josh Allen has a seven to forty three win percentage 751 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:46,400 Speaker 3: coming off a loss in his career. The only quarterbacks 752 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 3: that have a win percentage of seven hundred or better 753 00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:52,000 Speaker 3: off a loss like Allen are Lamar Jackson and Patrick Mahomes. 754 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 3: He just very rarely loses back to back games. Their 755 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:58,000 Speaker 3: back is so pressed against the wall right now too. 756 00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:01,560 Speaker 3: They're the seventh seed currently that vision like they're barely 757 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:04,800 Speaker 3: hanging on with the Patriots. He's going to give everything 758 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 3: he can to go off for five touchdowns and play 759 00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:07,879 Speaker 3: the hero ball and win. 760 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:09,320 Speaker 1: Is Kansas City done? 761 00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 3: I want to say they're done. It's just hard to 762 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,160 Speaker 3: say because of the logo. Like you just think that 763 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 3: they're gonna make a run in the playoffs, but they 764 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:17,960 Speaker 3: might not make. 765 00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:20,719 Speaker 2: It because of all those extra games in the playoffs, 766 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 2: the pass. How many years they don't finish off games 767 00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 2: like they did. They used to be really strong at 768 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,719 Speaker 2: the end of games. Now they're just not well. Occasionally 769 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 2: so they are, but not consistently. And Dallas is just 770 00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:34,759 Speaker 2: like I think a really good team too. Like yesterday's game, 771 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:37,359 Speaker 2: they receivers for Dallas are a huge problem. 772 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:39,479 Speaker 3: Kenna City couldn't stop holding. They got drew so many 773 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,320 Speaker 3: defensive pass interference penalties because they just had no answer 774 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,320 Speaker 3: for them. So you're right, like Kansas City of Old 775 00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:47,840 Speaker 3: gets off the field there gets the ball back. Mahomes 776 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:50,400 Speaker 3: has the drive for glory and he wins on Thanksgiving, 777 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:52,439 Speaker 3: but their defense just wasn't able to do what they've 778 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 3: done so often in years past. 779 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I still think they'll regroup next year 780 00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:58,160 Speaker 2: and get right back into playoffs. 781 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:00,879 Speaker 1: I don't think their team's done well. Ke retire. They'll 782 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:02,920 Speaker 1: move on from that might be good. I think. So 783 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:05,279 Speaker 1: they need a new chapter in the Mahomes area, turn 784 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:07,240 Speaker 1: the page, do something different. 785 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:09,839 Speaker 3: Like the Brady Patriots had different eras throughout them and 786 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,480 Speaker 3: like almost two different dynasties, like the beginning of the 787 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:15,440 Speaker 3: Brady dynasty and then the latter half of Brady Patriot 788 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:17,600 Speaker 3: dynasty change. And if they're done winning. It was a 789 00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:20,239 Speaker 3: great run, Oh incredible run. He's one of the most 790 00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:22,319 Speaker 3: quarterbacks of all the time. He's getting to thirty. I 791 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:26,280 Speaker 3: think maybe it is over. It could be, but it's 792 00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 3: already a Hall of Fame's. 793 00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,160 Speaker 1: Clear cut success from the AFC. 794 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:32,640 Speaker 3: Unless you believe in the Patriots that much and you 795 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:33,480 Speaker 3: think Drake May is. 796 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:36,840 Speaker 1: That good May, Yeah, I am. It's a really good quarterback, 797 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:37,919 Speaker 1: So I guess better. 798 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,600 Speaker 2: Though I thought it'd be like the second level of 799 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:41,560 Speaker 2: really good starter. 800 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 1: He might be top level. 801 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 2: He might be like in that Allen Mahomes you know, 802 00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 2: Goff and uh Stafford category. 803 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 3: Do you think Allen is so good still though, that 804 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:52,359 Speaker 3: the Bills could turn the page quickly and get kind 805 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:54,279 Speaker 3: of back to that that hierarchy. If the Chiefs do 806 00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 3: in fact fade down and there's an opening that the 807 00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:58,440 Speaker 3: Bills could still fill that hole. I think it's a 808 00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:01,800 Speaker 3: possibility still. I mean, he's still the best quarterback in football. 809 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:03,799 Speaker 3: Like where we're saying Mahomes might be flating a little bit, 810 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:04,799 Speaker 3: Alan is not at all. 811 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:07,240 Speaker 1: A lot of Bills fans think they need to replace 812 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 1: Sean McDermott. 813 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:09,560 Speaker 2: Do you agree or is that just knee jerk because 814 00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:13,800 Speaker 2: they've not done what the fans want with Josh Allen. 815 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,920 Speaker 3: Has he had a losing season, Sean McDermott, that's what 816 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:16,880 Speaker 3: he always have to start. 817 00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:18,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. 818 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:20,759 Speaker 3: I don't know either, but I would probably change up 819 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,840 Speaker 3: Sean McDermott because their defense has been the side of 820 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:25,680 Speaker 3: the ball that I think is letting them down. Like 821 00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 3: they have no weapons this year. His leading receiver is 822 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 3: Khalil shak Here. But they're still averaging twenty eight points 823 00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:33,719 Speaker 3: per game, this fifth best offense in football, you know 824 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:35,600 Speaker 3: what I mean, Like when you break down their analytics, 825 00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:38,440 Speaker 3: their offense is still really good. Like he's enough on 826 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 3: the offensive side the ball with some James Cook. It's 827 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 3: the defense that's the problem. And Sean McDermott's a defensive guy, 828 00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 3: and it's the side of the ball that's letting the 829 00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:50,120 Speaker 3: team down. So if I'm Josh Allen and I'm gonna 830 00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:53,000 Speaker 3: play under a defensive minded head coach, that defense better 831 00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 3: be great and it better be a perfect compliment to me. 832 00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:58,719 Speaker 3: If not, maybe I want an offensive guy in here. 833 00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:01,000 Speaker 2: We're gonna talk about Pickens a little bit in the 834 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:02,919 Speaker 2: next segment. Did you see that Dallas game? 835 00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's a freak. That hurdle that he had to 836 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:07,400 Speaker 3: get down to the goal line is just insane. 837 00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:09,839 Speaker 1: But I still think they did the right thing trading him. 838 00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:12,359 Speaker 3: I still do too, But I'm really starting to come 839 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,440 Speaker 3: around to the main reason why that was the right 840 00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:16,080 Speaker 3: thing is because they couldn't use him. There's just no 841 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:17,480 Speaker 3: way that he would be utilized this way, and. 842 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:20,319 Speaker 2: There's no point having a guy like that in Pittsburgh, No, 843 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:24,480 Speaker 2: because they don't care if he's happy. They care more 844 00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:26,920 Speaker 2: if a defensive players happy, like Cam Hayward with his 845 00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:29,759 Speaker 2: okie dunk bonuses, than they do of a true offensive 846 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:32,879 Speaker 2: talent like Pickens is happy. That said, again, you don't 847 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:34,120 Speaker 2: win with guys like Pickens. 848 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 3: And it's so clear where they were letting Pickens down 849 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:42,240 Speaker 3: the most. I think in the middle of the field. Surprise, surprise, 850 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:45,560 Speaker 3: it pops up again. But he just eats the middle 851 00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 3: of the field alive for the Cowboys, I mean, just 852 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:48,279 Speaker 3: feast in that. 853 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 1: Always says the Steelers do through in the middle of 854 00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:51,919 Speaker 1: the field. I just don't. But there's evidence that says 855 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:52,440 Speaker 1: that they don't. 856 00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:54,840 Speaker 3: We have passing charts after games that there's literally no 857 00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 3: there's like two circles in the middle of the field 858 00:40:57,040 --> 00:40:57,920 Speaker 3: in between the hashes. 859 00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:02,840 Speaker 2: You know, I find it intriguing that nobody knows for 860 00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:07,279 Speaker 2: sure if Rogers took snaps under center, don't you I mean, 861 00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:08,839 Speaker 2: Tom has said he did, but I don't believe him, 862 00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:09,600 Speaker 2: and nobody saw. 863 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:10,960 Speaker 1: It, apparently, why would you believe him? 864 00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 3: And yeah, like anybody I'm asking is saying that they 865 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 3: didn't see it directly with their eyes. So maybe coached 866 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:16,960 Speaker 3: t's just saying, well, if he had to take a 867 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:19,279 Speaker 3: snap under center, he can't, so he's capable of doing it. 868 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:22,680 Speaker 1: I find this to be maybe I heard the tape 869 00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:23,279 Speaker 1: that he took snap. 870 00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:25,400 Speaker 3: He took snaps under center, clear and dry like this 871 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:26,800 Speaker 3: Alan Saunders' story. 872 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:30,680 Speaker 2: Is it wrong of me to not believe him, No, 873 00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:33,480 Speaker 2: it's sensible of you to not believe him because. 874 00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:33,920 Speaker 1: He's he lies. 875 00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 3: He does all the time, and that's the right answer, right, 876 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:38,000 Speaker 3: because you don't want the team to think, oh, we 877 00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:40,399 Speaker 3: have an advantage. Rogers can't go under center. If you're 878 00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:42,360 Speaker 3: the Bills, we know that he's going to be limited 879 00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 3: playing that chess, that forty chess. 880 00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 1: I don't think the Bills give a crap about it. 881 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:48,960 Speaker 1: They do not. I don't think any team gives a 882 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:49,719 Speaker 1: crap about that. 883 00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 2: I think the notion that you need to lie to 884 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:56,080 Speaker 2: hide stuff from the other team is just such an 885 00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:57,840 Speaker 2: overrated NFL truism. 886 00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:00,040 Speaker 1: I mean, they all do it, but it just doesn't matter, No, 887 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:00,600 Speaker 1: it doesn't. 888 00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:02,440 Speaker 3: I think, you know, you do have to exploit matchups 889 00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:05,239 Speaker 3: and weaknesses on teams, but the truly great teams still 890 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:07,279 Speaker 3: kind of fall back onto that adage of like, you 891 00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:08,120 Speaker 3: can do whatever you want. 892 00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:09,680 Speaker 1: We're just better than you, and we're gonna do our 893 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:10,960 Speaker 1: thing and we're gonna beat you. 894 00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,799 Speaker 3: Well, there's adjustments that happen, but like the Steelers fall 895 00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:15,759 Speaker 3: into the trap where they act that way, but their 896 00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:16,839 Speaker 3: talent's not better than everyone. 897 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:20,560 Speaker 2: About that though, Tom, because you know, uh, that falls 898 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:22,719 Speaker 2: in the in the trap of we're just going to 899 00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:25,359 Speaker 2: do what we do and see if you can beat us. Well, 900 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 2: unless you have the best team, sooner or lady, you 901 00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:28,840 Speaker 2: will get beat. You have what I'm saying, you have 902 00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:29,759 Speaker 2: to you have. 903 00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:30,320 Speaker 1: To make change. 904 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:32,840 Speaker 2: And I'm not sure that any of them revolve around 905 00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:36,319 Speaker 2: the other team, in this case, Buffalo not being sure 906 00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:37,920 Speaker 2: if Aaron Rodgers can go under center. 907 00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:41,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, none of that. That's that's nothing to worry 908 00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:43,800 Speaker 3: them at all. I mean, I think they are approaching 909 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:46,760 Speaker 3: this game knowing that he's not gonna be fully healthy 910 00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:48,520 Speaker 3: and there's gonna be limitations to how he can play 911 00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:48,960 Speaker 3: the position. 912 00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:51,760 Speaker 1: All right, we got calls on the fifteens just around 913 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 1: the corner. 914 00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:54,359 Speaker 2: Today's a bad day for calls because I don't think 915 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:57,399 Speaker 2: anybody's listening cause the holiday. In retrospect, I shouldn't have work, 916 00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:59,560 Speaker 2: but that's because I'm miserable. But you can hear my 917 00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 2: voices awful. So you got a call and help out. 918 00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:05,840 Speaker 2: You got to eight three, three four one two w 919 00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:09,279 Speaker 2: xd X. And also how do I sound?
