Speaker 2: assuming the Big Game World champion Minnesota Vikings at the podium.

8
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,800
Speaker 2: The dais and I think it's called the dias. Is

9
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:35,760
Speaker 2: that right? Dai? Yes? Is that a word? Did I

10
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:36,519
Speaker 2: just make something up?

11
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 3: Oh?

12
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:37,640
Speaker 1: It looks like it just started.

13
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 2: Oh, here's here's Kevin O'Connor.

14
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:45,200
Speaker 4: Kevin, how much of what you're using in the offense

15
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 4: is hingine on what you see from JJ.

16
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,279
Speaker 2: As opposed to putting everything on.

17
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 4: There and knowing this is everything we can use, or

18
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 4: do you put more in based on what you saw

19
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 4: last week on the field.

20
00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 5: I just think it's about doing things that he's comfortable

21
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 5: doing right now. You know pre snap, post snap, what

22
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 5: we're what we're asking him to do in the past game.

23
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:10,479
Speaker 5: You know where the areas that we're continually continually working

24
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:14,040
Speaker 5: fundamentally and where where the areas where throughout the game,

25
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 5: the ebbs and flows of games where we see some

26
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 5: of the inconsistencies that come with a young player who

27
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:21,919
Speaker 5: you know, just made his third third start.

28
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 3: So I think we're.

29
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,199
Speaker 5: We're going to try to do the things we think

30
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 5: is he gives our offense a chance. But all that

31
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 5: goes through a scope of what JJ does well, what

32
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 5: we think his role in the game plan can be

33
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 5: to help us, and the things he does well fit

34
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 5: with you know, getting some of our best players on

35
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,680
Speaker 5: our offense going, as well as making sure we're very

36
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 5: cognizant in the line of scrimmage and running the football

37
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 5: as well.

38
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 2: You talk a little bit after the game about like

39
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 2: that some of the out of the pocket throw of

40
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 2: being a little amped.

41
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 4: I just wonder what from an actacy some of those throws,

42
00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 4: like what is required to be accurate?

43
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think so much of it comes from, you know,

44
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 5: the the understanding of just the amount of RPMs you

45
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 5: have to put on the throw. And he's got the

46
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 5: ability high level to you know, throw the ball very

47
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 5: hard when and but you know, you guys have heard

48
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 5: me talk about a lot of things in regards to court.

49
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 5: Things I look for in quarterbacks and armed strength is

50
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 5: normally not on the podium as far as you know,

51
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 5: the top things you're talking about. It is very important,

52
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 5: especially with some of the coverages we get with Justin

53
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 5: or attacking some of the one on ones and in

54
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 5: tight coverage. But the most important thing is, as he

55
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 5: learned on a few throws the other day, both completions

56
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,800
Speaker 5: he had that were critical, the long throw to Addison,

57
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 5: you know, really either one of the longer completions to Addison.

58
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 5: But then also you know, it's not just the ones

59
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 5: you complete, it's are we giving guys a chance for

60
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:52,079
Speaker 5: run after catch as well? When when we've married the

61
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 5: run in the past and set up a play pass

62
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,639
Speaker 5: with the chances for an explosive it doesn't just have

63
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 5: to be a you know, catch and get back up

64
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 5: and get twenty one yards can be a thirty forty

65
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 5: yard catch and run. Especially we've seen what Justin can

66
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 5: do with the ball in his hands. Addison, we gave

67
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 5: him a jet sweep and he made three defenders miss

68
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 5: and got a first down on a second and sixteen

69
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 5: or fifteen or whatever it was. So how many times

70
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 5: can we just and and a lot of those plays

71
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:20,520
Speaker 5: are relatively low on the scale of difficulty, you know,

72
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 5: and then it's becomes you know, the consistency of not

73
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 5: only being accurate on this throw and this throw, but

74
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 5: then you know, it's every single throw, every single play

75
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,359
Speaker 5: where when we get that consistency from him, which I

76
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 5: think he's definitely capable of, especially when you're focusing on

77
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 5: the lower body mechanics and understanding the tempo that you

78
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 5: can use throughout the game with your throw. You know,

79
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 5: different variations, and that's what the most important thing is

80
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 5: for accuracy. And then once you start getting comfortable using that,

81
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 5: then you got to get comfortable. You know, something catches

82
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 5: your eye, you got to throw it to a place

83
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 5: where a guy's going and if you're not going to

84
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 5: throw it hard, you got to then you know, adjust

85
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 5: for that in the type of throw you use. So

86
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 5: I think it's all it's all part of his development.

87
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 5: It's all normal. And the best things about JJ are

88
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 5: you know, in the biggest moment of the game the

89
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 5: other day, he had a very very you know, really

90
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 5: good rep with with speedy to put the game away

91
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 5: and ic it, and there wasn't a lot of like fundamentally,

92
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 5: you know, fundamental encouragement before I called that play. It

93
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 5: was you know, let him go be at his best

94
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 5: when it's required to make the play. Did you say

95
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 5: to him prior that you had the fifteen or so

96
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,159
Speaker 5: seconds here? Yeah, it was more so just you know,

97
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 5: coming off the previous sequence where I had kind of

98
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 5: mentioned some things to him but maybe didn't do a

99
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,719
Speaker 5: good enough job emphasizing as far as the clock, you know,

100
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 5: maybe you know, eating a little bit more clock especially,

101
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 5: And it was a little bit more about Yeah, it

102
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 5: was a little bit more about like, hey, you know,

103
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 5: I'm going to take a shot here, but there is

104
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 5: no scenario where an incompletion or throwaway is better than

105
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 5: a sack to keep the clock running or at least,

106
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 5: you know, make make Dan have to use whatever time

107
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 5: out he had left in that moment. So yeah, it

108
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 5: was it's, you know, he understands when that play call

109
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,720
Speaker 5: comes in, we're trying to end the football game, and

110
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 5: he's going to give Speedy a chance to make a

111
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 5: play verse the one on one he got. But part

112
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 5: of that is the trust in him to make that

113
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 5: throw and in that moment, meet that moment.

114
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 3: To be able to give Speedy a chance to make

115
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 3: a play.

116
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 5: But if let's say they play zone or we don't

117
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 5: like the look on the play, he's got to be

118
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 5: able to tuck that thing, protect the football and make

119
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 5: sure the clock is our ally in that moment.

120
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,719
Speaker 6: Kevin the screen past Aaron Jones on the first drive

121
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 6: of the game, that JJ is checking into that, like

122
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,279
Speaker 6: I said, a Canta line or I mean.

123
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was a can.

124
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 5: But he still had to recognize the look and you

125
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,039
Speaker 5: know thought, you know, kind of went into the game

126
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 5: plan knowing, you know, the history we've had with the

127
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 5: you know, with the Lions, and kind of maybe where

128
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 5: they would go with the first you know, third down,

129
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 5: real opportunity of the game. And he did a great

130
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 5: job recognizing the look and then really accurate throw. Brian

131
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 5: O'Neil was fantastic on the play. Kind of had to

132
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,479
Speaker 5: make an adjustment based upon you know, we didn't have

133
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 5: all eleven guys get the can in the noise, which

134
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,920
Speaker 5: is something we've got to improve on, you know. But

135
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 5: but yeah, it was it was part of a kind

136
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,840
Speaker 5: of a play. But the quarterback still has to you know,

137
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 5: get to the right play based upon the look. Get it,

138
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 5: get it, get it communicated to everybody really be the

139
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 5: beacon of kind of making that whole thing go.

140
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,280
Speaker 3: And it's exactly what he was on that look how.

141
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 2: Kind of do all that quarterbacking?

142
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 6: It seems so much that he has to be aware

143
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 6: of and smarked reflex of and all that stuff, and

144
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 6: it's it's pretty impressive.

145
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, And you can do.

146
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 7: All that stuff at that moment.

147
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I think the way I would equate

148
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 5: it to it would be like, you know, if you're

149
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 5: a high level chef making a meal, you know, we

150
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 5: try to put the ingredients out on the counter and

151
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 5: and and leave the instructions right next to the ingredients

152
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 5: and then potentially you know, have up until fifteen seconds

153
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 5: to help guide the crafting of that meal. That's how

154
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 5: we try to do it. So it's not just show

155
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 5: up to the stadium and figure it out all on

156
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 5: your own. But you're exactly right. I mean it's still

157
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 5: a third start. I mean third start making a play

158
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 5: like that and recognizing the look and kind of taking

159
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 5: the ingredients of the information that we talk about a

160
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 5: lot during the week and getting the answers to the

161
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 5: test via a lot of that is kind of you

162
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 5: know what you're looking for and I've always thought JJ

163
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 5: is a very very high level processor of information, you know,

164
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 5: whether it's protection calls and the things he has to

165
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 5: have to make certain looks blockable and make it right.

166
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 5: That's I've known that from the first time I sat

167
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 5: down with him in ann Arbor. So that's what makes

168
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 5: you so encouraged and excited about the fact that some

169
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 5: of the things we're working through right now with a

170
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 5: young player totally normal are the physical side of things.

171
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 5: The fact that he's so high capacity and capable mentally

172
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 5: of so much is where you hope to see a

173
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 5: young player grow within the same system for for a

174
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 5: long time, hopefully so. But you're exactly right as far

175
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 5: as you can turn on the TV and see that

176
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 5: exact same look and not see the level of poise

177
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 5: and ability to get the guys into the right play

178
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 5: on that sequence.

179
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 3: For sure.

180
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 1: I think Kevin was the trade deadline call for you

181
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,679
Speaker 1: yesterday or are there anything any possibilities that could have flushed?

182
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, I know, I know there was some calls and

183
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 5: and and some things, but what you know, I thought,

184
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,080
Speaker 5: you know, Crasy did a really good job communicating and

185
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 5: kind of letting us know kind of what some of

186
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 5: the possibilities were and talking through those. It's a game

187
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 5: game plan day, so you know, we're pretty we're pretty

188
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 5: hard at work as coaches, and but yeah, nothing, nothing

189
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 5: really materialized. And and like I said, you know, we've

190
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 5: kind of felt like very similar to our opponent probably

191
00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 5: who kind of dealt with some injury adversity, and now

192
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 5: they're getting healthy and getting back to being the original

193
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 5: team they thought they'd be, and they're a really good one.

194
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 5: So we're hoping we're the same and hoping and talking

195
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 5: about it doesn't do a whole lot. We got to

196
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 5: go put consistency on tape every single week the Ravens.

197
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: What do you see with Kyle Hamilton in that defense

198
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 1: and how they've seeningly got back on track.

199
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, they make the trade for another safety,

200
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 5: really talented guy in Gilman, which allows Kyle Hamilton to

201
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 5: then play pretty much predominantly the nickel spot, which they're

202
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 5: playing a lot of nickel defense to basically every grouping.

203
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 5: And then that also allows Humphrey to you know, stay

204
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 5: out at his at the spot where he's incredibly impactful

205
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,599
Speaker 5: at the outside corner spot. And they, I mean, I

206
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 5: arguably think they have maybe the best combination of corners

207
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 5: in the NFL. And then when you throw Hamilton in

208
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,960
Speaker 5: there is the nickel. I mean, that's it's an incredible

209
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 5: challenge and we feel great about our skill guys, but

210
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,680
Speaker 5: we've got to show up ready for a really, really.

211
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 3: Tough task and test on Sunday.

212
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 7: And how would you describe just the impact that Andrew

213
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 7: Bankinkle makes on your entire defense To have him for

214
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 7: this week's challenge.

215
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 5: I think I showed the team a clip of him

216
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 5: today just I think he got, you know, hit from outside,

217
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 5: you know, got kind of knocked from a kind of

218
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 5: a blind side block on a screen and he's on

219
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 5: the ground but still recognizes that you know, Montgomery or

220
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,599
Speaker 5: Gibbs or whoever it was, had the ball on the

221
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 5: screen and he makes the play like it's just it's

222
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,680
Speaker 5: not only the instinctiveness of plays like that that really

223
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 5: don't jump out, you know when he makes the play.

224
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,719
Speaker 5: I mean obviously we all see the the intercepting a

225
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 5: screen for a touchdown or you know, picking off a

226
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 5: hot throw in a zero, but it's.

227
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,560
Speaker 3: All those little ones will that he does.

228
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 5: And then it's just the much like Harriet at one

229
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 5: of those safety spots. It's just the communication. It's the

230
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 5: everybody's on the same page. You know, we had way

231
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 5: more snaps with Andrew Van Ginkel on the field where

232
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,679
Speaker 5: all eleven guys did their jobs and knew exactly what

233
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:59,720
Speaker 5: the call was. So he provides so many layers of

234
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,839
Speaker 5: things to our defense that allows Flow to be who

235
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 5: he wants to be as a play caller. And then, uh,

236
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 5: you know, everybody seems to Gink helps everybody else around him,

237
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:11,319
Speaker 5: not only himself, play at a high level.

238
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 3: So it's impactful for sure.

239
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 6: Relative to Andrew Bangingkole and other linebackers. Lamar Jackson, Yes,

240
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 6: I'm not in my seat in a row in my seat,

241
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 6: but relatives of those linebackers and the challenges faced with

242
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 6: Lamar Jackson, what do you need from those guys to

243
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 6: be able to get it done this week?

244
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:34,679
Speaker 5: Yeah, Lamar, He's just such a weapon. Now on schedule one,

245
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 5: he's clean in the pocket. You know, he's throwing in rhythm.

246
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,719
Speaker 5: They've got really you know, whether it's receivers with Zay

247
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,199
Speaker 5: in that group, or it's the tight ends with Andrews

248
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,199
Speaker 5: and in that group, they've got runner you know, different

249
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 5: running backs, and whether it's the screen game or pre

250
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 5: release out of the backfield with with Hill and Henry,

251
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 5: you just have to know that you know it's going

252
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 5: to be just playing the initial snap is going to

253
00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 5: be hard enough. The scheme that they run and it's

254
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 5: very well coached and they're very physical, is playing the

255
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,080
Speaker 5: snap itself is the starting point.

256
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:07,439
Speaker 3: Then the next play starts.

257
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 5: When things do go off schedule, and we've played against

258
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 5: some guys this year who have hurt us, you know,

259
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 5: whether it's internally getting up and out of the pocket

260
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 5: where you know, you got to look at the tape

261
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 5: and say, was our rush plan as disciplined as it

262
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,560
Speaker 5: needs to be versus a quarterback that can hurt you?

263
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,680
Speaker 5: And if you're going to turn the rush loose, do

264
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 5: you have to have somebody accounting for that quarterback when

265
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,200
Speaker 5: they when they move. But to me, it's about disruption

266
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 5: and it's about getting him off the spot. And then

267
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 5: it's the player that gets him off the spot is

268
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 5: more than likely not going to be able to always

269
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:39,080
Speaker 5: make the play.

270
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 3: So who's the next guy there?

271
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 5: And was there discipline in making sure you corral and

272
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 5: keep him in the area that you have to because

273
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 5: he can change a game even if you've done it

274
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 5: for seventy plays and you're in the fourth quarter, he

275
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 5: can do it and I got to have it moment

276
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,559
Speaker 5: and win the football game. So it's going to be

277
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,199
Speaker 5: a challenge. That's what makes the Ravens so difficult. I mean,

278
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 5: we talked about their defensive you know, skill players. We

279
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 5: didn't even talk about, you know, the fact they've got

280
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 5: really good linebackers, a huge, big, heavy defensive front, really

281
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 5: good edges. And offensively, they've got a physical line, one

282
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 5: of the best backs in football, and a bunch of

283
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 5: skill players to go along with the physicality that they

284
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 5: could be explosive in a heartbeat.

285
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 3: So all led by Lamar. So it's going to be

286
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 3: it's a big time challenge for sure. Kevin.

287
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 6: The intensity that JJ brought to your postgame celebration, does

288
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:28,319
Speaker 6: that catch you off guard at all?

289
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:29,960
Speaker 3: It never catches me off guard.

290
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 5: I just know to give him the football, deliver the

291
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 5: message that I'd like to deliver, and then get the

292
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 5: hell out of the way from my own personal personal

293
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 5: safety in that moment. But look, you know, you look

294
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 5: around the locker room. I know I did, not only

295
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 5: when I'm talking about him, but after when when he's

296
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 5: saying a few words, and you just see the guys

297
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 5: look at him. They see JJ McCarthy being himself. And

298
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,480
Speaker 5: that's all I've ever really thought. Quarterbacks in this league

299
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 5: need to do just much like a head coach, which

300
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,680
Speaker 5: you got to be authentically yourself every single day, and

301
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 5: and and.

302
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:06,080
Speaker 3: He's absolutely that.

303
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,679
Speaker 5: I think that's what allows him to be ready for

304
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 5: the moments in games where he's answered the bell, you

305
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 5: know twice now and two divisional road games. But that

306
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,199
Speaker 5: does not mean I have to be really close and

307
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 5: in arms of reach of him when.

308
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 3: When when he does those things. But the guys were excited.

309
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 5: I did think it took a way too long talking

310
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 5: to Tom Brady, and we were waiting for him for

311
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 5: an awful long time.

312
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 3: The lines don't make it easy on you.

313
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 5: You guys know that we got to run up a

314
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 5: two mile hill to get to the locker room. So

315
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 5: I did see video of him taking a nice brisk

316
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 5: walk off the field up the ramp, so you know,

317
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 5: maybe I'll encourage him to a slow jog would go

318
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 5: a long way so we can get back home here

319
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 5: to the Twin Cities. But now, it was a cool

320
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 5: moment we've had a couple of them so far this year.

321
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 3: Hope to have more time for.

322
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 2: Two more questions. Guys, Oh was that it?

323
00:14:58,320 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 1: That's it?

324
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 2: Well, there was time for two more. We were just

325
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 2: starting to get warmed up. Plus my lunch isn't done yet.

326
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 2: Maybe I can have gourmet McCarthy's what we should call him.

327
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 2: I'm trying to think of because the coach was using

328
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 2: the analogy. He's like a chef chef mac. Maybe just

329
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 2: call him chef Mac where we give him the ingredients.

330
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 2: Here you go. Have you ever watched Food Network?

331
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 1: I really do. It's a whole lot for.

332
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 2: They have a show. My wife is really into it,

333
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 2: and the boys work too, and I started I would

334
00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 2: when they would have it on, I would watch the

335
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 2: show and it was one of the shows on the

336
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 2: Food Network was I can't remember the name of it.

337
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 2: I haven't watching it on a while, but they have

338
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 2: they'll have three chefs and they're given like two basic

339
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 2: ingredients that might be just crazy, like your ingredients are

340
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 2: a pump can, lobster and rude bega good luck, and

341
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 2: then they have to go and make it's called chopped

342
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 2: that same the show, so that and then they can

343
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 2: use other ingredients as well, but those main three ingredients

344
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 2: have to be in the dish, and they're given twenty minutes.

345
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 2: Of course, they it's time lapse, right, they don't show

346
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 2: the whole twenty minutes. And then the celebrity chefs, the

347
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 2: the restaurant tours, the very wealthy people that have made

348
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 2: a millions of dollars being a food person, they'll test

349
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 2: the food and then tell they'll no critique it. I

350
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 2: really liked what you did with the pumpkin and the

351
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 2: lobster together, but you know there was one thing I

352
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 2: didn't like. And then they'll chop one of the people.

353
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 2: They'll be eliminated. And it's just like McCarthy's just he

354
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 2: gets the ingredients whatever you give him.

355
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 1: I always love that.

356
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 2: And then all of a sudden he was able to

357
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:58,880
Speaker 2: take those ingredients and Teney it was. It was a

358
00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 2: marvelous thing, is what he can. He was able to

359
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 2: to whip.

360
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:04,840
Speaker 1: Up a five star restaurant.

361
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 2: Five star restaurant, He was able to put put together

362
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 2: a wonderful little He took all the ingredients, made a

363
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 2: wonderful recipe. In the Vikings win, we'll take a break.

364
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 1: We'll have all actually we already did our break, so

365
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 1: we can do five questions.

366
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 2: Now, let's go ahead and do five questions. Go ahead,

367
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 2: whyn't we run away?

368
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:17,479
Speaker 5: Time?

369
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 1: Now for five questions?

370
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 2: Well, actually three, but five sounds like more than four.

371
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 2: Question number one.

372
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 7: Time now for an in depth look at the state

373
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:43,920
Speaker 7: of the state of hockey.

374
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 1: It was a wild one at Grand Casino Arena last

375

Speaker 1: late lead, Black and Burke.

377
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,680
Speaker 8: Breakway step comes a drop he starred, but I think

378
00:17:55,800 --> 00:18:01,439
Speaker 8: time expired. Let's see, there's zeros on the clock. Stamcos

379
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:05,480
Speaker 8: thinks he's tied it. We'll wait and see. Yep, point

380
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 8: two on the clock. They've tied the game. Yep, he

381
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 8: tied the game and goes overtime. And then this happens.

382
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:12,840

Speaker 8: The wild up numbers here Johansson an open ice for

384

00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 1: Bulliam and Philip Gustison stopped thirty two to thirty four shots.

395
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,480
Speaker 1: Comin what's sticks out to you from last night's Wild win?

396
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 2: Well, admittedly I always take a different I come at

397
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:54,159
Speaker 2: it from a different angle. What I want to know

398
00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 2: is did you see it live? If not, did you

399
00:18:57,640 --> 00:18:59,880
Speaker 2: make sure you didn't see any social And then did

400
00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:02,400
Speaker 2: you watched the entire game on the.

401
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,080
Speaker 1: I watched it all on DVR and I hadn't known

402
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 1: anything about it ahead of time.

403
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, so when did you watch and like when you

404
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:09,720
Speaker 2: got home from your hockey or whatever. Did you do

405
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,199
Speaker 2: it this morning? When did you watch them?

406
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 1: I was about like nine thirty ish last night, and

407
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:14,400
Speaker 1: so that what time did it end?

408
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 3: Oh?

409
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 1: Well, after you had to get kids? Do kids have

410
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 1: bed and stuff like that? So I had to pause

411
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:22,119
Speaker 1: for a second, but I got done around eleven and twenty.

412
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 2: So it was like one of those West Coast games.

413
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,160
Speaker 2: No complaints from you last night, but now when they're

414
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:27,879
Speaker 2: when they're playing on the.

415
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 1: West Coast, you complain it was just my choice. Yeah, well, yeah,

416
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 1: well I don't complain for personal reasons all the time.

417
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 1: You complained for the greater good. It's better.

418
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:39,159
Speaker 2: Did you really just say that you did it?

419
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:39,400
Speaker 5: Well?

420
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:41,960
Speaker 1: I mean yes, for this, for the sport of hockey

421
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:43,880
Speaker 1: and growing the game, it's best to have as many

422
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 1: eyeballs on it as possible. It's a great sport. Why

423
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:47,680
Speaker 1: are we playing it so late?

424
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:49,639
Speaker 2: I don't believe you, but I guess I'll have to

425
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,440
Speaker 2: take your word for it. So that's what started. All

426
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 2: I could think about is ten to watching this and

427
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 2: the course as it was happening. I wanted to text you,

428
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,240
Speaker 2: but then you would have been annoyed with me, because

429
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 2: I just say it was remarkable. Like I say, I

430
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:04,640
Speaker 2: was not watching. I'm on the couch dozing in and out,

431
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 2: and Deuce woke me up on both occasions and goes

432
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 2: you're not going to believe it. The Wild just gave

433
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:11,119
Speaker 2: up a goal with point three seconds to go, and

434
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,640
Speaker 2: then he played it back and I watched it. They're

435
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 2: going to overtime and I said great, and I rolled

436
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 2: back over. He thought I was going to get excited

437
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 2: about overtime, and then he woke me up. He said,

438
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 2: you got to see this, and that's what I saw

439
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,880
Speaker 2: where they knocked the uh, the the the goldie knocked out.

440
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:30,640
Speaker 2: I just love saying the word mornings word. He knocked

441
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:35,719
Speaker 2: the net off its moorings, and the officials and they

442
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:37,199
Speaker 2: wrote about in fish wrap West he.

443
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,240
Speaker 1: Was after they were morning. Yeah, predators.

444
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 2: Give yourself a rim shot there. It was either the

445
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,479
Speaker 2: athletic or one of the fish wraps that did a

446
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 2: story about Apparently it's like it's a rule that not

447
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,880
Speaker 2: a lot of people know about, right that an official

448
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,159
Speaker 2: can say, well, I know the puck didn't go in,

449
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:03,920
Speaker 2: but the offish the goaltender knocked the net off its moorings,

450
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:07,639
Speaker 2: and had he not that puck was on net?

451
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,480
Speaker 1: And we have to and I think they have to

452
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 1: rule that he intentionally knocked the net off too.

453
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:13,920
Speaker 2: Oh no, do they have to do yet? Okay, so

454
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,160
Speaker 2: how do you now? Again? I guess in a lot

455
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:19,960
Speaker 2: of cases you can probably tell if a guy doesn't intentionally.

456
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:22,159
Speaker 2: But I would bet there have been times where it

457
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:25,240
Speaker 2: just looks that way and it didn't. But nevertheless, I

458
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,119
Speaker 2: think they made the right call on this one. It

459
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 2: seemed like to me.

460
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 1: But again, and you know me, it can't be on

461
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:33,159
Speaker 1: sure right, but he knocked the net off and he

462
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:34,879
Speaker 1: had done it previously in the game too, in the

463
00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:35,439
Speaker 1: first period.

464
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,120
Speaker 2: Someone told me, I'm not you know me, I'm far

465
00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:40,679
Speaker 2: from a homer, but I do think in this case

466
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 2: the right call was. Indeed, I agree question number two.

467
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,159
Speaker 7: It's now time to take an in depth look at

468
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:59,199
Speaker 7: the welfare of the Wolves.

469
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 1: Timber Wolves are at Madison Square Garden tonight to take

470
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 1: on the New York Knicks. New York is favored by

471
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 1: five and a half points. The Wolves enter on a

472
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 1: two game winning streak. Both these teams are four and three.

473
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:16,800
Speaker 1: Anthony Edwards questionable to play with a hamstring injury. Who

474
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 1: dig a cat questionable with an illness common as Wolves Knicks.

475
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,199
Speaker 1: Because of everything that's gone on with the trades, is

476
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 1: it must watch for you still.

477
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 2: Somebody's four will be no more. Somebody's four will be

478
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 2: no more, somebody's lost calm though, Oh yeah, yeah, you're

479
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 2: sure right. Somebody's three will be set free. Somebody's three

480
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:46,680
Speaker 2: will be set free. I don't know if it's my

481
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:49,359
Speaker 2: I mean, I I will say this, I really picked

482
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:52,760
Speaker 2: my spots with the Wolves at home. I think it's

483
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 2: again it's I'm making some apologies for it. I'm I'm

484
00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 2: I'm uninformed, unprepared, and unapologetic. I don't watch a lot

485
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,840
Speaker 2: of sports sports, sports, particularly regular season stuff. Must it's

486
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 2: at the NFL, and but I picked my spots with

487
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:13,720
Speaker 2: the with the Wolves. This would be one I would

488
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,680
Speaker 2: watch because I do like Bodega Cat. I always like

489
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 2: Karl Anthony Towns. I thought he I mean again, I

490
00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 2: know he while he was here, there were times where

491
00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:30,640
Speaker 2: his defense was lacking. There were games he didn't show up.

492
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:37,240
Speaker 2: He complains the officials way too much. But what I

493
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 2: just said, there were described hundreds, hundreds, hundreds of NBA

494
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 2: players over the years, right, they've all done that. I

495
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 2: always thought Towns kind of got a bad rap here

496
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:48,080
Speaker 2: when he was traded. I think a lot of people

497
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,439
Speaker 2: were I think he had a lot of detractors and

498
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,159
Speaker 2: people fans in this time. They didn't particularly care for

499
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:56,439
Speaker 2: them care for him, and blamed a lot of the

500
00:23:56,520 --> 00:24:02,879
Speaker 2: Wolves wolf for shortcomings. An inadequacies on Bodega cat or

501
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 2: I guess Big Meal at the time. And look, he

502
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 2: has to take his fair share of the blame, but

503
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 2: I think he took too much. And I like I

504
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 2: like him as a player, and I do like watching

505
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,119
Speaker 2: him play, and there is I'm sure there's still a

506
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 2: little bit of that he played his whole career. He

507
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,959
Speaker 2: probably thought he was gonna end his career here, gets traded,

508
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:25,960
Speaker 2: and he didn't manage trade. He didn't ask for one.

509
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 2: He was just told one day, he was called in

510
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 2: and told you're gone. So I'm sure there's still a

511
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 2: little bit of that that rubs him wrong. And his

512
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,679
Speaker 2: former teammates probably liked him to, you know, get together

513
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,720
Speaker 2: with him again and play. So yeah, so I'll probably

514
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 2: and it's probably an early start by the six thirty

515
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 2: because he's in New York. Yeah, so, you know, because

516
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 2: I'm usually it's getting really sad to be I'm getting

517
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 2: to if we eat at like seven o'clock, I'm on

518
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:52,679
Speaker 2: the couch of sleep by seven thirty. I'm getting like

519
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:54,440
Speaker 2: ten hours of sleep, even when I get a broad

520
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,560
Speaker 2: play golf, because well, I just I can't stay awake.

521
00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:00,360
Speaker 2: But I think I'll try to watch a little tonight's game. Yeah,

522
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 2: I will question number three.

523
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:10,440
Speaker 1: Why we're balling when tweens we're ballingall.

524
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:20,840
Speaker 7: It's now time to delve deep into Twins territory.

525
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 1: I just want to stay here common I'm about to read.

526
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 1: I feel like I've been the only one talking about this,

527
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,680
Speaker 1: not even Warren, nobody's nobody's been talking about this, not

528
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,080
Speaker 1: even I'm the only one I've heard talk about this.

529
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:35,400
Speaker 1: So you're I've sent the warning shots to Twins nation.

530
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:40,440
Speaker 1: So you're saying, not even Warren. No, okay, uh Buster

531
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:45,159
Speaker 1: only a espn Uh. There's a column today when answering quote,

532
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 1: who are the biggest names you are hearing? Could be

533
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,240
Speaker 1: traded this winter? Here's what he wrote. Because of the

534
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 1: looming labor situation, some younger stars who are under team

535
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 1: control in twenty twenty seven before reaching free agency could

536
00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,440
Speaker 1: be shoved into the trade market by circumstances this winter.

537
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:04,200
Speaker 1: The best example Joe Ryan, who is eligible for free

538
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 1: agency after the twenty seven season. Typically, the Twins could

539
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 1: wait until next summer's trade deadline to consider taking offers

540
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:13,920
Speaker 1: for Ryan. However, with many executives believing that at least

541
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 1: some of the twenty seven season is in jeopardy because

542
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:19,640
Speaker 1: of labor strife, Placing an appropriate trade valuation on Ryan

543
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 1: will be much much more complicated next July. Teams might

544
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,679
Speaker 1: not be willing to part with significant return if they

545
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,359
Speaker 1: believe the twenty seven season will be truncated or lost.

546
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 1: So if teams want to get proper return on players

547
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 1: like Ryan, they could be better served to take offers

548
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 1: this winter rather than waiting until next summer. Common will

549
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:41,640
Speaker 1: the Twins trade Joe Ryan this winter? Well, my guess

550
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 1: would be yes.

551
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:53,960
Speaker 2: Though, that would be my guess, but it might not

552
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:58,480
Speaker 2: be it it's I reserve the right tation. How am

553
00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 2: I trying to say this? They could have traded him.

554
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 2: Look at they traded eleven players last year at the

555
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:10,920
Speaker 2: trade deadline. They didn't trade Joe Ryant Now, as only

556
00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 2: pointed out, and I've read it elsewhere, there were suitors

557
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:15,880
Speaker 2: for him where they're not. There were people that were

558
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:19,960
Speaker 2: inquiring about Joe Ryan, but particularly the Red Sox, is

559
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,640
Speaker 2: what I heard. So if you were, if you were

560
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 2: planning to part ways with Joe Ryan, why wouldn't you

561
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:30,400
Speaker 2: done it last year? Because it seems like they've kept

562
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 2: a couple of key pieces they have now, maybe that's

563
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 2: just circumstance beyond their control, maybe at some mad scheme

564
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:42,840
Speaker 2: they have or I don't know, But they didn't trade

565
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,879
Speaker 2: Royce Lewis, they didn't trade Byron Buxton, They've got Lopez,

566
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 2: and they've got Joe Ryant. Those four players I think

567
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,880
Speaker 2: would garner a lot of interest. Even with Buxton's injury history.

568
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,639
Speaker 2: He was really healthy last year and he was really good.

569
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 2: And I think there are people that would say Royce

570
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 2: Lewis has too much upside, too much ten. I know

571
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 2: he's been injury riddled and had a couple of slumps,

572
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 2: but we think he could help our team. And we

573
00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 2: know Lopez is a quality pictures is Ryan. So I

574
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 2: don't their actions during the trade deadline would lead you

575
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 2: to believe they're willing to trade everybody. But they did

576
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 2: keep some people and they could have traded Ryan. So

577
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 2: it's hard for me to put a finger on it.

578
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:23,440
Speaker 1: I have just been a time management thing. Didn't have

579
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 1: enough time commit to make a twelfth trade.

580
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,960
Speaker 2: That could be it two. So it's hard to really

581
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,199
Speaker 2: put your finger on and so I'm not sure what

582
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 2: they will do. But yeah, he's right that you probably

583
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:39,160
Speaker 2: get more now than you'll get laters. And that's it

584
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:44,560
Speaker 2: for today's edition of five questions, Well, actually three questions,

585
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:48,360
Speaker 2: but five sounds like more than four. Tennaby has a

596
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 2: It was probably not hard to find the funniest thing

597
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 2: Tennedby ever said, because well Tenneby really hasn't said that

598
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:20,920
Speaker 2: many funny things in his life, and I think he

599
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,400
Speaker 2: would have. He would agree with that. He's I've never

600
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 2: seen him do flops wet in tears, I mean, no money,

601
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 2: no funny. Well, I've got I can put, I can

602
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 2: I can put, I can put a bucket a quarter

603
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:32,680
Speaker 2: in your head.

604
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 1: I don't think that'll be worth the embarrassment I will

605
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 1: have walking up on that stage.

606
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 2: Because somebody sent a text message here to the Bradshawn Bryant.

607
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 2: The KFA and text line that says, I complain for

608
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 2: the greater good is one of the funniest things Tenneby

609
00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 2: has ever said. Welcome back to the spotlight, young man.

610
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 1: I always love welcome back to the spotlight.

611
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 2: Here's another one that I think. I I I know

612
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:10,000
Speaker 2: you're gonna say, good for me. I don't I have.

613
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:14,480
Speaker 2: There's nothing I can't watch on TV. I have everything.

614
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 2: I have satellite TV, I got cable TV. I've got

615
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 2: a firestick thing you can plug in whatever is on TV.

616
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:30,040
Speaker 2: I can find. Thank you. This one says Wolves early

617
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:33,320
Speaker 2: on ESPN, but I can't watch do to Disney legal

618
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:36,880
Speaker 2: dispute with YouTube TV. And then he goes, no, yes,

619
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:38,720
Speaker 2: that's exactly what he did. He had that in there.

620
00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 2: What dispute is this? Now, there's always a dispute between

621
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:50,080
Speaker 2: cable companies, satellite dishes, providers, streamers.

622
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:51,480
Speaker 1: Right, too many things going on?

623
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 2: What's what's this one? What is this problem? Now? Wolve's

624

Speaker 2: early on ESPN, but I can't watch you to Disney

625
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:00,040
Speaker 2: legal dispute with you.

626
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 1: I know there's a just speek between the two, but

627
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 1: I haven't read into it more than that. So word

628
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:06,920
Speaker 1: ESPN wants too much money, and YouTube TV's saying no,

629
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 1: we're That's what.

630
00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,560
Speaker 2: I'm trying to find out. I give me the basics though,

631
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:15,560
Speaker 2: So YouTube if you have YouTube TV, you can't get

632
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 2: ESPN because ESPN Disney wants too much money from you.

633
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 1: Yet I see, okay, Yeah, YouTube TV doesn't want to

634
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 1: pass that extra charge on to their customers, like every

635
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 1: other dispute we've had with Yeah, because.

636
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,080
Speaker 2: I've got YouTube TV, and I have it for one

637
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 2: reason and one reason only, so I can watch out

638
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 2: of market football. Duce and I have two TVs hooked

639
00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:42,800
Speaker 2: up at the same time. We watch out of market

640
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:46,080
Speaker 2: football because I like what I think I've I've made

641
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,360
Speaker 2: no bones about it. It's it's not a secret. I

642
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,640
Speaker 2: like the National Football League. It's my favorite sport. And

643
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 2: in case you didn't know this, I'm Alliance fan. I

644
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:58,440
Speaker 2: was born in Detroit. So let's we established this earlier

645
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 2: in the week. I'll do it again. If it's the

646
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:05,960
Speaker 2: NFC Championship game this year, between the Vikings in Detroit.

647
00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,320
Speaker 2: In will Reiker to standing over a thirty seven yard

648
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:12,400
Speaker 2: field goal, He'll probably kick it wide right if he's

649
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:14,960
Speaker 2: standing over thirty seven Ah, you know what he's not.

650
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 2: His name isn't Gary Anderson. If he's standing over getting

651
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 2: ready to kick a thirty seven yard field goal with

652
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,360
Speaker 2: three seconds to go, would I want him to make

653
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 2: it so the Vikings go to the NFC Championship game

654
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:29,840
Speaker 2: or what I wanted to miss? The sue Detroit would

655
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:31,920
Speaker 2: And my answer is the same as it was on Monday.

656
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 2: If Riker misses it, then two weeks from now, I'm

657
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 2: sitting on my couch at thirteen fourteen Insane Lane in

658
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 2: a bitterly cold February watching the kiddies play another game.

659
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 2: If the if Riker kicks it, Tennebe and I are

660
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:54,360
Speaker 2: on it at least one week, maybe two, but certainly

661
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:56,760
Speaker 2: a one week paid vacation, because we'll do our show

662
00:33:56,800 --> 00:34:00,160
Speaker 2: from Santa Clara and all the shows are going there.

663
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, I know that in the past

664
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,440
Speaker 2: it's always just been the power trip. Of course PA

665
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 2: would be there at Berrero, but I think we would

666
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:09,759
Speaker 2: be at least I hope we would and maybe I'm

667
00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:10,919
Speaker 2: wrong there, but let's just say we would.

668
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:13,960
Speaker 1: For arguments sake, I'd rather we'd go there, and while

669
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:17,400
Speaker 1: the other shows would be interviewing KOC and JJ McCarthy,

670
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 1: we'd be getting like some sort of third string special

671
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:20,440
Speaker 1: teams guy.

672
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,439
Speaker 2: Yes, which is okay, because maybe we could get third

673
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,239
Speaker 2: teams special teams guys since he's not playing anyway, he

674
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:29,080
Speaker 2: could fill out our foursome and we could interview him

675
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:30,959
Speaker 2: on the golf course because you and I are going

676
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:32,800
Speaker 2: golf and if we go there, of course, and we

677
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 2: get to be in Santa So why would I want

678
00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 2: the Lions to go to the big game? I like

679
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:38,320
Speaker 2: both clubs. You can do that.

680
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:40,440
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, the conundrum of which team to

681
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 1: cheer for, we'd call that a good problem to have. Yeah, Man,

682
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:45,960
Speaker 1: Vikings in the NCY Champions Game would be like your

683
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:46,880
Speaker 1: best case scenario.

684
00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 2: That's that's a good problem to have. And as I

685
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:50,719
Speaker 2: mentioned before, I used to be a Denver Bronco fan

686
00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 2: because when the radio station that worked at where we

687
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,799
Speaker 2: were one of the uh we were one of the

688
00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,520
Speaker 2: point they had how long does our post game go?

689
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 2: I know, the did Bronco radio network one for like

690
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:03,360
Speaker 2: four days. It would be like Wednesday and they're still

691
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:07,040
Speaker 2: recapping games. He goes a couple hours as well. It's like,

692
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,120
Speaker 2: but I guess you got to do it right. It's

693
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,080
Speaker 2: all about the money. The fans want it, the fans

694
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:13,799
Speaker 2: want it, and the advertisers are willing to pay for it,

695
00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:17,319
Speaker 2: and we're willing to accept their money gleefully is what

696
00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:24,239
Speaker 2: we're able to do. So yeah, I yeah, here's one

697
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 2: that says yes, come in. For the first time in forever,

698
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:33,919
Speaker 2: I couldn't watch Monday night football because I have YouTube TV,

699
00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:36,759
Speaker 2: So guess what I got to watch? Antique road Show.

700
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 2: Antique Road Show. My sister loves the Antique road Show.

701
00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:49,400
Speaker 2: My sister and my brother both were antiquers, might still be.

702
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,759
Speaker 2: My brother is one of the coolest golf antique collections

703
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 2: I've ever seen. He passed on some of his collection

704
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 2: to me too, and one of them is I think

705
00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,840
Speaker 2: I've talked about this before. I have a set of

706
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 2: furbished Johnny Bulla nineteen fifty eight irons and Persimmon woods,

707
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,000
Speaker 2: and I asked my brother, well, these look like the

708
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:10,200
Speaker 2: day they came off the off the assembly line. He said,

709
00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:13,440
Speaker 2: they're brand Yeah, they're basically I said, can are they

710
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:15,080
Speaker 2: just for looks? Or can you play them? He said,

711
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 2: well you can play them. The thing is to me,

712
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 2: I'm sure you've seen a Persimmon wood driver from the

713
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:25,200
Speaker 2: older days. Well, it looks like a hybrid. That's that's smaller,

714
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:27,799
Speaker 2: smaller than a hybrid. It's like, well, how do you

715
00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:28,279
Speaker 2: hit that?

716
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 3: Even?

717
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:31,359
Speaker 2: But I planned one of these days to take those

718
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:32,200
Speaker 2: off and give them.

719
00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:34,759
Speaker 1: A better golfer by being flaced to play those things.

720
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:40,400
Speaker 2: That's true. Yeah, then oh, I got another real quick. Well,

00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 2: So I birdied to get it back to plus three.

776
00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:53,440
Speaker 2: I was plus three at the turn. I pard ten,

777
00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:58,560
Speaker 2: bogie eleven, birdied, twelve, bogie thirteen, get to fourteen front

778
00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:01,680
Speaker 2: left pin. I hit it the fairway or the greenside

779
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:04,799
Speaker 2: bunker left. My bunker play has gotten better over the

780
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:07,960
Speaker 2: past couple of weeks. I'm just focusing more reasonable doubt

781
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:10,920
Speaker 2: for reasonable feg guy his tipsticks in my head pretender

782
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,040
Speaker 2: swinging underwater because people tend to get really quick in

783
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 2: the bunker, including myself, and you get too steep and

784
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:19,480
Speaker 2: you dig in. I got the ball up and out

785
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:21,239
Speaker 2: of the bunker, but it got caught up in the

786
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:23,640
Speaker 2: rough and then the lie wasn't very good and it

787
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:27,200
Speaker 2: was a tight cut pin. I just didn't feel comfortable

788
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:29,680
Speaker 2: hitting a wedge there. I don't know why. I probably

789
00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:32,160
Speaker 2: should have, so I decided to put it instead. I

790
00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:34,640
Speaker 2: kind of just popped at it, and it bounced up

791
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 2: and went six feet past the pin. So now I'm thinking, well,

792
00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:41,600
Speaker 2: now you're making double. It's over. But I made the

793
00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:45,440
Speaker 2: six footer for bogy. I made it. I buried it well.

794
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:47,880
Speaker 2: Then I already told you about the one where I

795
00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:50,319
Speaker 2: Will Reker did it between the trees and then got

796
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:52,640
Speaker 2: up and down on that one for par fifteen. That

797
00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:56,160
Speaker 2: was a remarkable par. But I said I was, I

798
00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:57,880
Speaker 2: putt it really well and nothing would go in. And

799
00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:01,800
Speaker 2: three people nominated me for psd erry Mondela Guy, some'monn

800
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:05,920
Speaker 2: Ogre guy, and Lake Wobegone baseball guy, and you already

801
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:10,160
Speaker 2: backed me up on this. I don't think. I don't

802
00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:14,120
Speaker 2: think any of those of the three aforementioned uh moniker

803
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:17,880
Speaker 2: people have any idea that they don't play golf because

804
00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:22,480
Speaker 2: you can putt well and and still not make anything.

805
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:24,560
Speaker 2: Let me give you an example. Here's let me see

806
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:29,320
Speaker 2: if this this will help him understand. Tonight, Minnesota Timberwolves

807
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:32,240
Speaker 2: are at Madison Square Godden to take on Bodega Cat

808
00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:35,879
Speaker 2: in the New York Knickerbockers, right, and his aunt playing tonight?

809
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:36,880
Speaker 2: Is he expected to play?

810
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:40,239
Speaker 1: I haven't heard anything today he was questionable. Well, let's

811
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:41,840
Speaker 1: go with deep yesterday.

812
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:43,480
Speaker 2: Let's go with Devincenzo or do we want to call

813
00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:48,080
Speaker 2: him Devincenzo, which because Mark Rosen says he'll he likes

814
00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:50,120
Speaker 2: to just change up the way he pronounces people's names,

815
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:52,200
Speaker 2: even if one of the ways to pronounce him is incorrect.

816
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:54,680
Speaker 2: What do we want to do today? Tennyby Devin Senzo

817
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:55,440
Speaker 2: and Devincenzo.

818
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:57,080
Speaker 1: Let's go Devin Senzo.

819
00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:00,359
Speaker 2: Okay, so let's see Devin Senzo takes ten three point

820
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:05,920
Speaker 2: shots and makes four. They'll say he's red hot. Yes,

821
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:09,600
Speaker 2: I mean four, a ten point shooting is remarkable. Well,

822
00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:12,680
Speaker 2: he missed six. How can that be? So by the

823
00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:16,400
Speaker 2: same logic, because I'd made some putts, they it was

824
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:19,960
Speaker 2: like I missed all of them. But because I missed

825
00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,759
Speaker 2: a number of putts that just skirted the lip or

826
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:26,200
Speaker 2: whirled out, how can that be a preposteros statement? I'll

827
00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:28,719
Speaker 2: leave in knowing Larry mondella guy, the way I do it,

828
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,160
Speaker 2: Maybe I'll explain it to him this way. Last fall

829
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:33,880
Speaker 2: we did a show at Rockwoods and not sego. He

830
00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:39,480
Speaker 2: thought he had a really good set. The lack of

831
00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:42,440
Speaker 2: laughter would lead you to believe it wasn't a very

832
00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:46,600
Speaker 2: cross set. So just thought i'd throw that out there.

833
00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:51,440
Speaker 1: You he had a good set. There just wasn't any lasts.

834
00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:51,920
Speaker 2: That's it.

835
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:52,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it.

836
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 2: He had a really good set. There wasn't any laughs.

837
00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:59,920
Speaker 2: It's the same thing you wouldn't mention, is it? Buster only?

838
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:03,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, talking about Joe.

839
00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:05,640
Speaker 2: Ryan and that he could be a candidate to be traded.

840
00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:09,240
Speaker 2: CBS Sports did a similar piece to me. They said,

841
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:14,120
Speaker 2: ranking top twenty five Major League Baseball candidates, trade candidates,

842
00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:18,040
Speaker 2: players who could be moved before twenty twenty six season,

843
00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:23,920
Speaker 2: and potential landing spots. So I scrolled through looking for

844
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:29,120
Speaker 2: the Minnesota Twins and Tennebee not only is there and

845
00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:34,839
Speaker 2: now I scrolled too fast. Sorry, not only is Joe

846
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:37,759
Speaker 2: Ryan on that list, but there's another Minnesota Twin on

847
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:41,120
Speaker 2: that list? Really there or at least on this list

848
00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:44,680
Speaker 2: by g Joe. I can't remember the guy's name that

849
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,160
Speaker 2: wrote the piece. I can get it for you later.

850
00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:49,160
Speaker 2: It's I don't think it's important at this point. Who

851
00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:51,239
Speaker 2: do you think that other player is? And oh, by

852
00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:54,239
Speaker 2: the way he ranked them, he has Ryan in and

853
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:56,320
Speaker 2: the other player seven and eight, So in other words,

854
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:58,680
Speaker 2: he thinks there's a very good chance they could be traded.

855
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:02,600
Speaker 1: Don't say the Lopez Royce Lewis.

856
00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:04,680
Speaker 2: No, it's none of the players I mentioned before.

857
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:08,239
Speaker 1: Oh, try to remember who's all on the roster since

858
00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:10,400
Speaker 1: you got rid of hard Ryan Jeffers.

859
00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:13,120
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, So here's what it says, despite an extreme

860
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 2: level of interest, the Twins did not trade Ryan at

861
00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:17,759
Speaker 2: the deadline, then he pitched to a four point eight

862
00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:20,920
Speaker 2: nine eer the final two months of the season. I

863
00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:24,640
Speaker 2: doubt that will scare away interested teams. It comes because

864
00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:28,520
Speaker 2: Ryan comes with two affordable years of team control as

865
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:32,840
Speaker 2: an arbitration eligible player, but it can't help matters. The

866
00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:35,879
Speaker 2: fact that interested clubs will not only get two postseason

867
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:38,760
Speaker 2: runs of Ryan rather than three will lessen the return.

868
00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 2: Jeffers is a year away from free agency. Given how

869
00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:45,000
Speaker 2: hard they sold at the deadline, it stands to reason

870
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:48,080
Speaker 2: the Twins will cash Jeffers in as a trade ship

871
00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:51,080
Speaker 2: this winter rather than keep him at twenty twenty six.

872
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,200
Speaker 2: Keep him with designs on moving him at the deadline,

873
00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:56,799
Speaker 2: and you open yourself up to all sorts of injury risk.

874
00:44:57,160 --> 00:45:01,359
Speaker 2: Given the nature of the catcher position theggressiveness of Minnesota's

875
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:04,400
Speaker 2: deadline sale, we can't rule out of Pablo Lopez trade

876
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:07,279
Speaker 2: this winter, either, So he throws Lopez in. But the

877
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:11,399
Speaker 2: Jeffers does make sense, right, catching's always at a premium.

878
00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:14,560
Speaker 2: Jeffers is pretty good. I think he's a decent hitter,

879
00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:16,840
Speaker 2: is he not? Yes? And got some pop to his

880
00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:20,480
Speaker 2: back and he's and defensively, I think he's he's rock solid.

881
00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:24,080
Speaker 2: So you're right, you you if you wait for him

882
00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:26,080
Speaker 2: to get to free agency, you're getting nothing for him.

883
00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:28,480
Speaker 2: So there's there's certainly a possibility he could be traded

884
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:28,960
Speaker 2: as well.

885
00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:31,160
Speaker 1: Are the Twins about to turn into.

886
00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:33,080
Speaker 7: One?

887
00:45:33,160 --> 00:45:34,879
Speaker 1: You know, there's always been like a section of Major

888
00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:37,360
Speaker 1: League Baseball teams, like the bottom ten where the payroll

889
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:41,680
Speaker 1: is just extremely low. Yeah, the Twins have always been,

890
00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:45,880
Speaker 1: you know, nowhere near the Dodgers or the Yankees or

891
00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:48,640
Speaker 1: the Mets, but at least, you know, we're north of

892
00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:50,600
Speaker 1: one hundred million dollars. Are we about to turn into

893
00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:52,760
Speaker 1: like a fifty sixty million dollars payroll?

894
00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:54,400
Speaker 2: I don't know if we'll get that low, but it

895
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:58,920
Speaker 2: wouldn't shock me if they do. I mean, what were

896
00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:04,160
Speaker 2: we last year before after the Trader? Well, yeah, that's

897
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:06,960
Speaker 2: that's a good point. I think when the seasons started,

898
00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:10,640
Speaker 2: we were did we go down to one thirty or

899
00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:14,719
Speaker 2: we won thirty? Like one thirty something going coming out

900
00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:18,840
Speaker 2: of the season before before they made the big, massive cuts.

901
00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:24,560
Speaker 2: I mean, again, I really don't care enough anymore because

902
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:26,360
Speaker 2: I don't think they cared. That was the thing. I

903
00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:29,560
Speaker 2: think that annoyed a lot of people and including myself,

904
00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:32,000
Speaker 2: was when the pole AADs had that piece. It was

905
00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:36,040
Speaker 2: in fish wrap factory west side, big sprawling piece.

906
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:40,040
Speaker 1: So according to US spotrek dot com, Twins payroll in

907
00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:42,880
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five was one hundred and twenty nine million.

908
00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:47,920
Speaker 1: Now for twenty twenty six, right now, we only have

909
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:53,040
Speaker 1: forty eight point eight wo allocated. They're projected total. Obviously

910
00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:59,839
Speaker 1: there's always yeah, there's gonna be arbitration stuff coming up,

911
00:46:59,880 --> 00:47:03,480
Speaker 1: right that'll determine things. But they're projected total for next

912
00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:08,279
Speaker 1: season is ninety three million as of right now. In

913
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:13,040
Speaker 1: that that's Ryan Jeffers will make six point five million,

914
00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:16,839
Speaker 1: Joe ryan Will makes six million, Bailey ober Will makes

915
00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:18,600
Speaker 1: six point eight Those are your third, fourth, and fifth

916
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:19,400
Speaker 1: guys on the list.

917
00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:22,759
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's Mediterranean and Baltic on the

918
00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:27,040
Speaker 2: on the monopoly board, but it's close. It certainly is Vermont,

919
00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:28,520
Speaker 2: Connecticut and Oriental.

920
00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:32,200
Speaker 1: Right, well, and we're paying Carlos Korea ten million dollars

921
00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:33,279
Speaker 1: of his salary this year.

922
00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:41,040
Speaker 2: What if the Wild get out to a two zero

923
00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:48,719
Speaker 2: lead Tonight Power rankings tend to be you know me,

924
00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:51,920
Speaker 2: I'm obsessed with it. I just love the nature of

925
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:53,680
Speaker 2: how they changed dramatically by one week.

926
00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:54,399
Speaker 3: Now.

927
00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:56,960
Speaker 2: Remember the Lines and the Packers were both highly regarded

928
00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:58,840
Speaker 2: in the Power rankings last week, both top ten. I

929
00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:03,000
Speaker 2: think Detroit was number two in the Power rankings. Let's

930
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:05,600
Speaker 2: see where that now. The Philadelphia Eagles have vaulted at

931
00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:09,080
Speaker 2: number one. They were at number three before Tennaby they

932
00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:13,839
Speaker 2: go up to number one. What do you think they're

933
00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:15,400
Speaker 2: And by the way, I think I told you, But

934
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:17,759
Speaker 2: this is from the athletic. The athletic likes to do

935
00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:22,440
Speaker 2: along with the power ranking. They'll always have something like well,

936
00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:25,960
Speaker 2: for instance, today it's there they want. They have the

937
00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:29,359
Speaker 2: mid season report card, the mid season grade. They give

938
00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:32,640
Speaker 2: the Eagles an A minus. The Eagles and a minus

939
00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:34,680
Speaker 2: and they say they are the best team in pro football.

940
00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:41,360
Speaker 2: Number two the Rams of Los Angeles at number two.

941
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:45,440
Speaker 2: They are six and two. Beat the Saints this past Sunday.

942
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:50,080
Speaker 2: Their mid season grade is an A. Your Buffalo Bills

943
00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:53,960
Speaker 2: are at six and two. They are they are. They

944
00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:57,000
Speaker 2: are number three in the Power rankings. They have a

945
00:48:57,040 --> 00:49:02,400
Speaker 2: grade of A minus. Tampa Bay. Tampa Bay is now

946
00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:06,399
Speaker 2: number four, up from number seven last week. Their mid

947
00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:09,000
Speaker 2: season grade is a minus. And here's what's funny about

948
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:13,879
Speaker 2: the power rankings. After Detroit pounded Tampa Bay two weeks ago,

949
00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:18,720
Speaker 2: Detroit vaulted to two. Tampa slipped now and you know again,

950
00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:24,560
Speaker 2: you can beat a team and still do you believe

951
00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:27,920
Speaker 2: in that? Like, could you make an argument that Detroit

952
00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:29,640
Speaker 2: is still a better team than the Minnesota Vikings.

953
00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:32,239
Speaker 1: Oh sure, yeah, of course I have a better record.

954
00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:35,000
Speaker 2: Yeah right, And I'm not even saying that they are,

955
00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:37,319
Speaker 2: but I'm just saying you can make that argument. But

956
00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:40,920
Speaker 2: Tampa Bay has a better record than Detroit at six

957
00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:42,799
Speaker 2: and two, so they've been put back up even though

958
00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:45,960
Speaker 2: Detroit beat them rather handily. The Colts go from number

959
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:50,080
Speaker 2: one to number five. Well because of a loss to

960
00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:51,960
Speaker 2: the Steelers twenty seven to twenty.

961
00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:54,279
Speaker 1: I Mexus Rice. Seattle hasn't hit this list yet.

962
00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:58,520
Speaker 2: They might be coming mid season grade A plus for

963
00:49:58,600 --> 00:49:59,880
Speaker 2: the Colts. It's hard to argue at that.

964
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:00,480
Speaker 3: It's been.

965
00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:05,279
Speaker 2: It's been a magical season, Gardner, Yes they did. Here's

966
00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:07,239
Speaker 2: your Seahawks tend to be at number six, they come

967
00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:09,960
Speaker 2: up from eleven. Their mid season grade is an A.

968
00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:13,040
Speaker 2: Says halfway through the season, Sam Donald should be the

969
00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:19,920
Speaker 2: MVP front runner. Old Sam Donald had an armed Yeah,

970
00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:24,319
Speaker 2: I recognize that name from somewhere. Why can't we get

971
00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:29,520
Speaker 2: guys like Sam Donald? He left a quarterback friendly scheme

972
00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:33,000
Speaker 2: and roster in Minnesota, only to completely flip Seattle's offense.

973
00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:37,720
Speaker 2: Donald ranks first among quarterbacks in EPA per play. What's EPA.

974
00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:41,360
Speaker 2: It's like an efficiency, expected performance efficiency or.

975
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:42,800
Speaker 1: Something expected points.

976
00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:43,200
Speaker 3: I don't know.

977
00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:47,160
Speaker 2: Uh. The ranks first among quarterbacks and e p A

978
00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:49,560
Speaker 2: per play because I think like EPA is the environmental

979
00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:52,359
Speaker 2: protection Agency. I thought maybe it's in protective environment. Maybe

980
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:55,840
Speaker 2: he's good at Donald ranks first among quarterbacks and EPA

981
00:50:55,960 --> 00:51:00,720
Speaker 2: per play success rate in yards per attempt. Your kiddies

982
00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:02,080
Speaker 2: go from two to seven.

983
00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:02,680
Speaker 3: Ten.

984
00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:06,920
Speaker 2: They get a mid season grade of a bee. It

985
00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:09,520
Speaker 2: says their running game was stuck in the mud Sunday

986
00:51:09,520 --> 00:51:12,360
Speaker 2: against b flows Vikings defense. But this is still a

987
00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:15,280
Speaker 2: really good football team. There won't be many more opponents

988
00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:18,719
Speaker 2: who can bottle up Gibbs in Montgomery the way Minnesota did.

989
00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:21,839
Speaker 2: They need to get their offensive line healthy. They need.

990
00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:24,320
Speaker 2: I mean, we talk about it all the time. Tennabee.

991
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:29,840
Speaker 2: It's the number one. It's the number one reason a

992
00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:32,000
Speaker 2: team is either good or bad or in between is

993
00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:35,839
Speaker 2: because if you have a solid roster but it's decimated

994
00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:38,279
Speaker 2: with injuries, it's just hard to win, it really is.

995
00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:41,200
Speaker 2: And the Vikings saw that when their offensive line was

996
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:44,719
Speaker 2: in shambles for the first on one hundred games that

997
00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:48,479
Speaker 2: they played now eight for seven weeks, right, and now

998
00:51:48,520 --> 00:51:52,480
Speaker 2: finally they had their new center, who I think they

999
00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:55,120
Speaker 2: liked there, so I consider him starting center now anyway,

1000
00:51:55,160 --> 00:51:59,879
Speaker 2: Then they had the two bookend tackles O'Neill one game, yes,

1001
00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:03,879
Speaker 2: and Jackson at left tackle or left guard. And then

1002
00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:06,440
Speaker 2: our right guard is is it Fries? Is that his name?

1003
00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:10,600
Speaker 2: So you saw when you have your when you have

1004
00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:14,560
Speaker 2: your your your your your starting offensive lineman, and how

1005
00:52:14,640 --> 00:52:18,439
Speaker 2: much better it can be. Broncos are at eight, Patriots

1006
00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:22,520
Speaker 2: at nine, Kansas City Chiefs at ten five and four

1007
00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:25,279
Speaker 2: Kansas City Chiefs. Yeah, but I'm I'm with you at ten.

1008
00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:27,640
Speaker 2: B it's hard for me. I don't think you can

1009
00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:30,319
Speaker 2: sleep on Kansas City. It's almost like.

1010
00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:34,960
Speaker 1: And they still have a tough schedule the rest of

1011
00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:35,399
Speaker 1: the way too.

1012
00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:38,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, but for them, they just need to get in.

1013
00:52:38,719 --> 00:52:44,279
Speaker 2: Well that's the thing. It's almost as if as long

1014
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:47,479
Speaker 2: as they make the tournament that's really all that match

1015
00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:49,920
Speaker 2: you can play anywhere. Yeah, it's it's the same with

1016
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:52,560
Speaker 2: when we talk about you know, when I when I've

1017
00:52:52,840 --> 00:52:57,080
Speaker 2: when I've bemoaned the fact that the Wolves, had they

1018
00:52:57,120 --> 00:52:59,680
Speaker 2: won a couple of extra games last year that they

1019
00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:01,799
Speaker 2: should one, they could have been a three or four seed.

1020
00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:03,719
Speaker 2: They ended up being the sixth seed, almost slipped in

1021
00:53:03,760 --> 00:53:07,560
Speaker 2: that plane. But guess what, they still made the conference finals.

1022
00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:09,680
Speaker 2: So you just want to make sure you get in.

1023
00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:11,719
Speaker 2: And Kansas City's one of those teams. If they just

1024
00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:16,800
Speaker 2: get in. Green Bay plummets to eleventh. They had been sixth.

1025
00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:20,360
Speaker 2: I'm still looking for the Vikings, the Steelers at twelve,

1026
00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:22,000
Speaker 2: the Niners at thirteen.

1027
00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:23,239
Speaker 1: Have you said the Patriots yet?

1028
00:53:24,920 --> 00:53:25,200
Speaker 2: I did?

1029
00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:25,719
Speaker 1: Okay?

1030
00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:26,400
Speaker 2: Or did I not?

1031
00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:28,760
Speaker 3: No?

1032
00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:30,480
Speaker 2: No, the Patriots, Oh yeah, they'ret nine.

1033
00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:31,480
Speaker 1: As I say, they're seven to two.

1034
00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:36,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're at nine, Chiefs ten, Packers at eleven, Steelers

1035
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:43,640
Speaker 2: at twelve, Niners at thirteen, Chargers at fourteen, Jaguars at fifteen,

1036
00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:47,279
Speaker 2: Panthers at sixteen or behind the Panthers were behind the

1037
00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:51,800
Speaker 2: Bears at seventeen, the Vikings at eighteen. They're mid season

1038
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:55,880
Speaker 2: grade a C plus. Here's what it says about the Vikings.

1039
00:53:56,960 --> 00:53:59,160
Speaker 2: On one hand, you could argue they deserve a better mark,

1040
00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:01,799
Speaker 2: considering Carson and Win started five games for them. On

1041
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:04,759
Speaker 2: the other hand, this is a roster with Super Bowl

1042
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:08,680
Speaker 2: aspirations and you're thinking offense with Justin Jefferson would rank

1043
00:54:08,760 --> 00:54:12,560
Speaker 2: higher than twenty seventh in the league in EPA per play.

1044
00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:15,120
Speaker 2: So still not a lot of believers in the Bikers.

1045
00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:18,359
Speaker 2: And I gotta be honest with you, Tennemy, I think

1046
00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:20,680
Speaker 2: this is another barometer game. I think they all love,

1047
00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:23,560
Speaker 2: but this it was nice to beat the lines, to

1048
00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:26,280
Speaker 2: get on the right side of the win loss column

1049
00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:28,760
Speaker 2: with a really good performance, their best all around performance

1050
00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:30,959
Speaker 2: of the year. But you got to stack them, right,

1051
00:54:31,680 --> 00:54:34,480
Speaker 2: You gotta stack them, and so let's stack one at

1052
00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:38,399
Speaker 2: home against the really good Ravens. Expected points added I'm

1053
00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:44,120
Speaker 2: being told, is EPA expected points added the only points

1054
00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:46,399
Speaker 2: I expect to be added? Or when they score, that's

1055
00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:49,440
Speaker 2: just well break, We'll come back. We'll welcome the legendary

1056
00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:53,000
Speaker 2: Mark Rosen into the common man conversation. That's next year.

1057
00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:53,359
Speaker 7: In the fan
