1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:05,120 Speaker 1: With Pete Bursich, analyst Vikings Radio Network joining me now, 2 00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:08,520 Speaker 1: and of course he did a couple during the bye week, 3 00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:13,080 Speaker 1: which I appreciate. You can search on YouTube Pete Bursich 4 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:16,079 Speaker 1: five six all one word or Eye in the Sky 5 00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 1: but the Eye in the skypot video podcast that he 6 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:22,680 Speaker 1: does via YouTube. With these breakdowns, Pete, I've already I've 7 00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:25,279 Speaker 1: already got two different directions that I want to go 8 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 1: in this conversation and with my thought process with Philly 9 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:31,040 Speaker 1: around the corner. But I do want to start here 10 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: the team out of the by team getting healthy. Just 11 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 1: what happens during a bye week when so many people 12 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 1: are down. Man, we're trying to open practice windows. We're 13 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 1: hoping Cashman's back, Van Ginkle in this neck. We know 14 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 1: about the kid QB's ankle, the running back Aaron Jones 15 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:52,519 Speaker 1: might be back. Like how in some ways despite it 16 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,720 Speaker 1: being a break How hectic or chaotic can it be 17 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 1: during a week like that where everybody's hurting and trying 18 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: to get healthy. 19 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 2: Well, I mean that's that's kind of what during the 20 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 2: bye week. You just let everything go, let everybody go, 21 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 2: You do it. You know, you have a little bit 22 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 2: of work to do. But it's not until today, maybe 23 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 2: even tomorrow, that you really start to take a look 24 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 2: at those guys to see if they are ready to 25 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:26,480 Speaker 2: come back. And you have to because today starts the 26 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 2: game planning for Philadelphia. Right. They may started a little 27 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 2: bit because they played on Thursdays, so you had a 28 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 2: couple extra days to look at everything. But for the 29 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 2: most part, you've got to know who's going to be 30 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 2: in there. You got to know who's going to be healthy, 31 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,679 Speaker 2: and so you know, those decisions will be made here 32 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 2: over the next couple of days. And do we need 33 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 2: all of them? Yes, we need every You know, you 34 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 2: need every single one of those guys because this is 35 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 2: that stretch of games that are going to come quickly 36 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 2: because you've got to play Philadelphia and then turn around 37 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 2: and play a short week and go off to California. 38 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 2: So you need your rest. And again, you got to 39 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:09,079 Speaker 2: get those bodies back. They're they're important, right, I think, Alex. 40 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 2: I mean, I think Van Ginkl is a huge part 41 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,119 Speaker 2: of the of the defense in the run in regards 42 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 2: to the run and just how he plays the outside 43 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 2: tackle position. So I think he'll be a big plus. 44 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 2: And then you know, obviously Cashman would be as well, 45 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 2: especially going against a team like Philly who's lost a 46 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 2: couple in a row and they're gonna want to get 47 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 2: back to their roots, right, They're gonna want to get 48 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 2: back to on the road, simple football. I would just 49 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 2: expect to see a lot of Saquon Barkley on Sunday. 50 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,079 Speaker 1: Yeah, what was that game in London? It just kind 51 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 1: of felt like Kevin O'Connell. I don't want to say 52 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: it was a complete coaching performance that that's not the 53 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: right way I'm looking at it, but just learning about 54 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 1: what he has and potentially what he'll have to continue 55 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: working with out of the buy, hoping we get some 56 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 1: good news next couple of days on the health as 57 00:02:58,320 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 1: we just talked about. 58 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,799 Speaker 3: But it felt like he was exhausted, Like that was. 59 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: You know, that was maybe one of the harder coach 60 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: maybe that's the way to put it. 61 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 3: Did it feel like maybe that was one of. 62 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 1: The more difficult or challenging coat you know, individual games 63 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: that Kevin O'Connell has coached as the headman for the Vikes. 64 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 2: Uh, yeah, I would, I think so. I guess that's 65 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 2: kind of that's a lot of what I tried to 66 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 2: I did point out in the in the videos, it's 67 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 2: just you know how that you know what the feeling 68 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 2: was going into that football game. Me with being down 69 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 2: three offensive linemen, You're going against one of the better 70 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 2: fronts in the you know, in the NFL, and to 71 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 2: come up with the running game, you know, was it 72 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 2: I mean, was it Emmitt Smith and the Cowboys back 73 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 2: in the nineties. No, But for what we had and 74 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 2: what we were able to put on the field, those 75 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 2: you know, those guys played very well. Joe Huber played 76 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 2: as well as he could. He's going against Malie Collins, 77 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 2: one of the are passed, one of the best I 78 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 2: think interior pass rushers in the league at this time, 79 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 2: and held up very well. They ran some traps, they 80 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 2: did a lot of different things. I think the tight 81 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 2: end stepped up, both PJ. Hogginson and Josh Oliver. You know, 82 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 2: Will Fries I think had a very very good game 83 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,479 Speaker 2: as well. So the guys that you needed to step 84 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 2: up did Minus the two fumbles, it would have been 85 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,839 Speaker 2: I think a much better day on the ground. But 86 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 2: just you could you could pick out and you can 87 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 2: feel and you can see and in the passing game, 88 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 2: in the running game, specifically things that the offense did 89 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:43,919 Speaker 2: that coach O'Connell and West Phillips did to make things 90 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,039 Speaker 2: work right, the specific types of runs maybe something that 91 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 2: we haven't seen, you know. And also in the passing game, 92 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 2: getting the ball to Justin Jefferson and on that end 93 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 2: seeing just you know, Justin Jefferson one on one with 94 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:01,919 Speaker 2: any corner. He Carson Wentz are developing a nice little 95 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 2: rapport and Carson Wentz is starting to just get in 96 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 2: the back shoulder fade and start doing some things, you know, 97 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 2: TC Tampa two. You got JJ running out, Justin Jefferson 98 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 2: run down the middle of the field. You was, you know, 99 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,040 Speaker 2: you're gonna throw them the football and let Jefferson make 100 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 2: a play, and he did a few times. So that, Yeah, 101 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,039 Speaker 2: to keep those guys positive on the road in a 102 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 2: foreign country for an entire week, knowing you having to 103 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 2: fly bodies out just to get enough guys in the room. 104 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 2: You know that that part of it, I think is 105 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 2: pretty remarkable and shouldn't be overlooked. Especially you know that 106 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 2: that that game dealers. Historically, the difference between going two 107 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 2: and three and three and two is a twenty eight 108 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 2: percent better chance of making the playoffs. 109 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 3: Wow. 110 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 2: I when I saw that number, I was I was, yeah, 111 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 2: it was I was amazing. It's it's some If you're 112 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 2: three and two, it's right around it's fifty percent, and 113 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 2: if you're two and three, it's like around twenty two. 114 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 2: And I guess in hindsight, I didn't know that going 115 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 2: into the game, But in hindsight, you're like, Wow, that 116 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 2: puts us in a much better in a much better 117 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 2: position going into this next stretch of games. 118 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know, without even knowing that stat though, 119 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: just feeling the urgency of what needed to take place. 120 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: And you mentioned you mentioned justin Jefferson.

Bursich, you 129 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: mentioned justin Jefferson and when we have the Eagles coming 130 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: to town and we were talking to I just think 131 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: the Eagles are their own worst enemy, where it feels 132 00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: like they're the most talented team in the NFL. But 133 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: just how the big personalities can connect and come together 134 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 1: and find some form of cohesion. It's it's really hurt 135 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 1: him the last couple of weeks, but Justin Jefferson, whether 136 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 1: it's the seven different qbs that have thrown to him 137 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: the last handful of years, maybe even more potential quarterback 138 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 1: Carosselling taking place, him stepping up in moments and just 139 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 1: effectively calling game like Carson, just get it within five 140 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: feet to me, I will make the freaking catch. There's 141 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: no way we're losing to the Browns. I'm just impressed 142 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 1: when you see how some other big personalities in the 143 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: NFL comport themselves and handle adversity. Justin Jefferson just rises 144 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: to the occasion every damn time. It's it's so awesome 145 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: to watch number eighteen. 146 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 2: Yeah it is. And and well, we've seen kind of 147 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 2: a slow start. I think to a season go you know, 148 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 2: going in I think going into this one three and 149 00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 2: twenty six yards to the first four games, that's gonna 150 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 2: be closer the five hundred now a couple. Yeah, it's been. 151 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 2: I'm sure it's been frustrating for him, right, it's frustrating 152 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 2: for him because he has a different guy throwing them 153 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 2: the football, had a couple of different guys throwing them 154 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 2: the football. But you know, I Forgate, for Jefferson, it's 155 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 2: what can you control? You can't. You can't control who's 156 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 2: that quarterback, right, you can't. There's nothing you can do 157 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 2: about that. You have to play the hand that you're dealt. 158 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:35,679 Speaker 2: And to that point, again, that's you finally saw Carson Wentz. 159 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 2: I think have a lot more confidence in his ability 160 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 2: to throw on the outside to JJ. I mean the 161 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 2: back shoulder fade and that final drive for twenty one yards. 162 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 2: I mean that he knew he was throwing. He knew 163 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 2: he was throwing that football there. And I guess so no, 164 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,559 Speaker 2: I guess. My point in all this is is game 165 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 2: planning is important. It's gonna win you some downs. It's 166 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 2: gonna you know, you know, you row cam Akers in 167 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 2: and you get a you get a touchdown pass on 168 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 2: a on a wildcat. Look, but at some point somebody 169 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 2: has to step up right and when the vice teams needed, 170 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 2: I mean, if you just look at the great plays 171 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 2: that were made Jefferson was responsible for most of them, 172 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 2: and you got to continue that. And he's you know, 173 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 2: he's gonna have another good matchup I think this week. 174 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 2: And Dorry Jackson is is struggling their DBS. I think 175 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 2: as a group are struggling a little bit for Philadelphia. 176 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 2: So those matchups you have to wear out. You have 177 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,120 Speaker 2: to take advantage of them, no question they. 178 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know how much headspace I mean, 179 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 1: I I don't think I've seen like you haven't put 180 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: out a specific podcast on it. 181 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't. I don't see that O line. 182 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 1: I do want to get to the Minnesota Moving Company 183 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 1: and maybe that place in the in the part of 184 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 1: this as well. Pete, how much headspace have you put 185 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 1: into the when cut? You know, what does JJ McCarthy 186 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 1: need to do to get back to the feet field. 187 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 1: Is it just merely being one hundred percent We've heard 188 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: about kind of the commitment to the plan of full 189 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: practice weeks and feeling good on that ankle. Where are 190 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 1: you at with that conversation? As I mean this, this 191 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 1: shoulder injury is no joke for Carson Wentz. So I mean, 192 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 1: do you put a eighty five percent JJ McCarthy in 193 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: because of a severe shoulder situation with Carson? Are we 194 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: talking about a brozmer cat at home against the freaking 195 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 1: Eagles defense? And Vic Fangio licking his chops? Like, where 196 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: are you at with with everything in relation to how 197 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: Kevin O'Connell is handling the quarterback position and maybe how 198 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: things could play out you know from from this point forward? 199 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 2: Well, you know, I think you have That's a tough one, 200 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 2: you know, with it depends on how you have to 201 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,080 Speaker 2: sit there and really look at how well these guys 202 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 2: are all feeling. And unfortunately we don't know that right, 203 00:10:55,679 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 2: We don't know if JJ McCarthy is a high ord percent. 204 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 2: I think the health, the health side of it dictates 205 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 2: quite a bit. And the other thing is that you 206 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 2: drafted JJ McCarthy and went into the season expecting him 207 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 2: to be the starter. So at some point you expect 208 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 2: that to be handed back to him or given back 209 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 2: to him to let him develop and let him be, 210 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,679 Speaker 2: let him be the future of the franchise. You know, 211 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,959 Speaker 2: that's that's that's a tough one because we've seen how 212 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 2: well Wentz has played, He's gotten better, and you know, 213 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 2: it's hit that one a guy at this stage against 214 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 2: this team with the guy with a you know, between 215 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 2: the two, you think Carson Wentz might be a little 216 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 2: bit better equipped just because he's he knows this team, 217 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 2: he's been down this road, he's played. Yeah, obviously he's 218 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 2: a lot more experience. You know, he knows he's experienced 219 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 2: enough to run a shorter, controlled, three step type passing game. 220 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 2: I just think that the offense will have to will 221 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 2: have to change quite a bit, and you're not going 222 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 2: to have the flexibility and game planning if you have 223 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy back in there. But if he's the healthiest guy, 224 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 2: then yeah, you got to put him back in. And uh, 225 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 2: if it's the two of them again, you have to sit, 226 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,199 Speaker 2: sit back and go, all right, we're gonna go with 227 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 2: this guy and a quarterback A and then Brozmer. You 228 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:20,839 Speaker 2: just you just need to be ready. This isn't a 229 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 2: normal just be a backup week. You're gonna get some 230 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 2: snaps during the week and do some different things because 231 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 2: you've got to be ready to have maybe all three 232 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 2: of them in there. Who knows right, And that's the 233 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 2: tough part in order. You just don't know how bad 234 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:41,359 Speaker 2: is Wentz's shoulder. How good is JJ McCarthy's ankle, And 235 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,439 Speaker 2: you gotta you gotta kind of go pick one of 236 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 2: the two. You're you know, one of the And that's 237 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 2: why I'm saying the earlier in the week you can 238 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 2: figure out who that quarterback is going to be is 239 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 2: essential because you have all that game planning that you 240 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 2: have to do. Because the offensive look does look a 241 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 2: lot different with McCarthy in there as opposed to Carson Wentz. 242 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 2: Not like a quantum leap in difference, but it's different enough. 243 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 1: Absolutely, time for a few more here with with you, Pete. 244 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 1: Let me let me lay this out for you. So 245 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 1: I have kind of I put it kind of in 246 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: the idea that Andrew Van Ginkle is vital to this defense. 247 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 1: That does not mean that Dallas Turner is a bust. 248 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,960 Speaker 1: Both things can be accurate. Where Dallas Turner is growing, 249 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 1: He's done a few good things, but we need Van 250 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 1: Ginkle back. Do you see it that way or how 251 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:35,679 Speaker 1: do you see it where I'm just not necessarily worried 252 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: about Dallas Turner per se, but I do feel the 253 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: loss of a Van Ginkle being healthy in this lineup. 254 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 3: And this next thing is quite precarious. 255 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think a lot of it has to 256 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:47,440 Speaker 2: do with the teams that we played. I mean, the 257 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Steelers and the Cleveland Browns. It's AFC norse right. 258 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 2: These guys run the football, they're very physical. They throw 259 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,959 Speaker 2: an extra offensive linemen, right, they throw you know, Cleveland 260 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 2: throws in defensive lineman to play back. I mean, they're 261 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:06,440 Speaker 2: very it's they're two very physical teams. And so Andrew 262 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 2: Van Ginkle and his ability to uh and then it's 263 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 2: just his feel for holding the edge and playing the 264 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 2: run is what would have been very very helpful. And 265 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 2: I was asked about that about just the running game 266 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 2: and what's going on with defensively, and it's it's kind 267 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 2: of a tough. It's not sexy or glamorous. It's it's 268 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 2: kind of getting a technique and feel for what offenses 269 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 2: they're trying to do. And Quinn, you know, Quinn Shawn 270 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 2: Jenkins was was very very good at kind of taking 271 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 2: the defense one way and then cutting back and going 272 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 2: the other. And he found he found him, he got them, 273 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 2: got himself up on some DBS and we had a 274 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 2: couple a couple of mistackles and that that needs to 275 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 2: improve the question about that, but Andrew Van Ginkle, I 276 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 2: think would would help solidify the running game quite a bit. 277 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 2: And he and the fact that you're saying that doesn't 278 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 2: take anything away from Dallas Turner. He's at an opportunity 279 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 2: in the last couple of weeks to play quite a bit, 280 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 2: and he's played. I think he's played pretty well for 281 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 2: the most part. And they get one of his better 282 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 2: games against Pittsburgh, so he's improving. Uh, but yeah, you 283 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 2: need you need that guy back, You need you need 284 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 2: forty three back in the mix, I think to help 285 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 2: show up that run. And if you get Cashman in 286 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 2: there as well, I mean, those two bodies right there 287 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 2: should will I mean, they will make a difference, and 288 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 2: that little bit of difference can go a long way. 289 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 1: Do you think do you think Blake Brandell kind of 290 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 1: played himself into a spot where he's just going to 291 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: be the center until I mean, I don't know what 292 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 1: the status in the health situation is with Ryan Kelly 293 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: being on IR and Michael Jurgen's got his shot at 294 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 1: it wasn't particularly elite. 295 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 3: And then he also got hurt. 296 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 1: Is is this, Uh, did Blake Brandell the Wally pip 297 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 1: on this thing and uh and find himself into a spot. 298 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think he played well enough that you can 299 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 2: put him back in there and and not be uh panicked. 300 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 2: I mean, anytime a guy plays a position for the 301 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 2: first time, you know, you you're gonna panic a little 302 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 2: bit ter, You're gonna worry a little bit. But no, 303 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 2: I think he did. He did a pretty good job. Uh. 304 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 2: He's a big body, right, And it's it's kind of 305 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 2: like we had a saying back in college with h 306 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 2: with guys that would come in and then they would 307 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 2: be defensive linemen and they would last there for a 308 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 2: little bit, and then they go to the O line, 309 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 2: and then you can't make it on the O line 310 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 2: and you go to the bus line because you're getting 311 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,239 Speaker 2: you know, you're on your way out. So uh, Brandella 312 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 2: is making that that trend closer to the center. Now 313 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 2: he is the center. So I think that it's you'll 314 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 2: see a lot more guys go from guard to center 315 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 2: than you will from center to guard or from guard 316 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 2: to tackle. Uh, you're right in the mix. You're you know, 317 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 2: you usually have help. It's very difficult to isolate a 318 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 2: center and pass rush lookout putting five men on the 319 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 2: line of scrimmage, that kind of thing. But Brandell, I 320 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 2: think Brandell did a good job. He's again, he's big. 321 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 2: You can't coach big, takes up a lot of space. 322 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 2: I thought he had a pretty good day, did some 323 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 2: good things. And you know, with Bryan Kelly next to him, 324 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:20,880 Speaker 2: and hopefully Donovan Jackson getting back, I don't know what 325 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 2: his schedule is if we're if he's indeed going to 326 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:28,119 Speaker 2: be going to be missing again. Then you're talking about 327 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:33,399 Speaker 2: you know, Joe Hubert being back in there and Jordan Davis, 328 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 2: Jalen Carter, you got some you got some big bodies 329 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 2: coming up this week, so well it's going to be 330 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:39,680 Speaker 2: another battle in the interior. 331 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, just last thing for you then, and it's a Monday. 332 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,679 Speaker 1: You haven't even put the full depth chart together, the 333 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,440 Speaker 1: work that you put in. It's names and numbers, et cetera, 334 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: and some stats and just it's it's early week. But 335 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 1: just top of head, just one thing you're thinking about 336 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 1: with with Philly in town this weekend. We've seen them 337 00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,880 Speaker 1: kind of implode the last couple of weeks. Start four 338 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 1: know they've lost too straight, but just what what are 339 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:06,120 Speaker 1: you thinking about in terms of our squad and uh 340 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 1: in Philly at us Bank Stadium for a noon or 341 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 1: on Sunday. 342 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 2: We're gonna need the crowd right that we need that 343 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 2: we need that advantage. So you know when teams like 344 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:21,680 Speaker 2: phil when you see teams like Philadelphia struggle like they are, 345 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,640 Speaker 2: it's going to be about getting back to getting back 346 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:28,199 Speaker 2: to the basics right And for them, I think offensively, 347 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,160 Speaker 2: it's going to be running, you know, running the football, 348 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,160 Speaker 2: and that's why you know Van Ginkle is so important 349 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 2: to get back in there. They're going to I think 350 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 2: they're gonna lean pretty heavily on on Saquon Barkley, not 351 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 2: try to make it a game where Jalen Hurts is 352 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 2: just going to drop back because he wasn't even pressured 353 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 2: much against the Giants late in the game. The Giants 354 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 2: that pass rush kind of wore out on them. But 355 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 2: the Vikings can consistently rush the passer and and they're 356 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 2: gonna see film for the last couple of weeks the 357 00:18:56,080 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 2: teams being pretty successful on the ground. Uh So I 358 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 2: would assume that they're going to go back, you know, 359 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 2: they're going to go back to the to the running 360 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 2: game quite a bit. And then defensively, you know there 361 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,400 Speaker 2: they got some struggles on the outside and that's why 362 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,399 Speaker 2: it's on the outside of that defense, I think, and 363 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,439 Speaker 2: that's why it's who plays quarterback for us is going 364 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 2: to be so imperative. 365 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 3: Hey, thanks for your time this morning, my man. 366 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: Have an awesome week, and just looking forward to hearing 367 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 1: you sitting shotgun with Pa on Sunday for an actual 368 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 1: normal timed game as part of the NFL schedule.

I know some some cursory ways to 439 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:58,919 Speaker 1: handicap races. I'm not in a complete dolt, pretty close, 440 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,879 Speaker 1: but not a complete dolt. But Dave's faves. For like 441 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 1: a couple of bucks, there's usually either Dave himself for 442 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 1: some gallon to stand and near the entrance. I see 443 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 1: the little Green pamphlet it's two three bucks, and I 444 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 1: hit a pick five. 445 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,879 Speaker 3: This is no hyperboleeve. I have no reason but to 446 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 3: be honest. 447 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 1: I hit it pick five or I hit like a seven, eight, 448 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 1: nine to one shot every single summer that I'm out there, 449 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 1: and it's because. 450 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:24,919 Speaker 3: Of Dave's s faves at Canterbury. 451 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:28,399 Speaker 4: All right, we'll go here, all right, per what crazy 452 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 4: day in the NFL as slate that didn't really look 453 00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 4: all that exciting. The Broncos early on struggle with the 454 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 4: hapless Jets, that was a weird one. A backup quarterback 455 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 4: Jacob Brissette keeps the Cardinals alive and kind of gives 456 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 4: the Colts all they can handle. But the Colts eventually 457 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,680 Speaker 4: win the game. I want to talk about I'll just 458 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 4: seeing the Cowboys lose. I forgot about that loss. That's 459 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 4: terrible for them. As Lions chiefs, we all, you and 460 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 4: me both want to see the Lions lose. That's good 461 00:23:56,000 --> 00:24:00,640 Speaker 4: news for everybody. But the brawl at the end, there 462 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 4: was fighting and of course the usual suspect and branch 463 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 4: punching somebody in the face. Mask just kind of a 464 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:10,120 Speaker 4: weird game where it seemed like the Chiefs just had pomentum, 465 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:13,639 Speaker 4: and it also kind of delved into who could go 466 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 4: for it for fourth down more especially in the first half, 467 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 4: because the Lions almost forced you to go for it, 468 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 4: and it does make the game more exciting. But I'm 469 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 4: happy to see the Chiefs pull out and get the 470 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 4: win there three and three and Rice is on the 471 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:27,160 Speaker 4: way back. 472 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's kind of crazy. 473 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 1: I mean, you mentioned Brian Branch, super talented player, but 474 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: there is a little bit of an attitude there, you see. 475 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: Well that might just be part of that defense in 476 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,120 Speaker 1: what Campbell is putting together in Detroit. 477 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 3: I like Brian Branch. 478 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, he kind of walks by and tries to I mean, 479 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:49,479 Speaker 1: wasn't it Juju Smith Schuster. I believe Scott after him 480 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 1: a little bit, or at least that's what kind of 481 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 1: started the whole bit. Is Branch kind of struts by 482 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: or makes contact with Mahomes. Yeah, I'm watching this in 483 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 1: bed as I'm trying to fall as, so I had 484 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 1: like one eye open, but I think it was Branch either. 485 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 4: Brushes or he's stiffed, like Mahomes is kind of putting 486 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 4: his hand out like good game, and he's. 487 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,879 Speaker 1: He just totally ignored totally ignored it, right, Okay, Yeah, 488 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 1: so I don't know. 489 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 3: I mean, they just lost. 490 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 1: I don't see like you're making Branch to sound like 491 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:19,400 Speaker 1: he's an inherently bad or dirty player. I like the kid, 492 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:24,120 Speaker 1: So yeah, the Bls, the Brawls, stink Chiefs, feeling good 493 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:27,359 Speaker 1: about themselves, Lions with an opportunity then, you know, I 494 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 1: don't know how much does it play into it where 495 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:31,399 Speaker 1: you know they found a way to best them a 496 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,160 Speaker 1: couple of years ago. I think that was at Arrowhead 497 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 1: as well. I don't know, I don't really read. That 498 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 1: just feels like attitudes flying high. I mean, that's just 499 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 1: that's just kind of what it feels like to me. 500 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 1: No big deal. There is a big deal from a 501 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 1: divisional standpoint to knock down the Lions just a peg. 502 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 3: There's still foreign two. 503 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 1: You feel because of the tie, like you're you're one 504 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,119 Speaker 1: of those guys. You're one of those if the playoffs 505 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 1: started today type of people. Yes, where I mean that 506 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 1: has to be exhausting, because what is week six? It's 507 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:06,199 Speaker 1: kind of fun and if the playoffs started today, you 508 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:08,199 Speaker 1: can sit in all of your Reddit threads with your 509 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 1: fellow Packer fans, including a couple of Texters here at 510 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 1: the Bradshawn Brian Kfa and text line and you can all. 511 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 3: Just sit together if the playoffs started today. Oh Jardan 512 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 3: loves a division champion. 513 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 1: You love doing that, You absolutely love doing that. 514 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:24,679 Speaker 3: It's probably part of your. 515 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:28,479 Speaker 1: Most recent episode of Packer Review with Dave Sinekan. It 516 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 1: makes a cameo. I just I love how muddy this 517 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: division is. And we got a tough one in front 518 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 1: of us with the Eagles. But just you know, even 519 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 1: even the Bears Bears in Washington this evening, I believe, 520 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 1: you know, obviously go Commanders, That's that's clear and obvious, 521 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 1: hoping that they knock them to two and three. But 522 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,360 Speaker 1: I mean, just crazy how things have panned out now 523 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:54,160 Speaker 1: the Niners, man, they're playing with house money right now. 524 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,719 Speaker 1: They lose yesterday. This mac Jones thing will have an 525 00:26:56,720 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 1: expiration date on it. The Seahawks want to see them, 526 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:04,240 Speaker 1: you know, in just again, three teams at four and 527 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 1: two in the in the af in the excuse me, AFC, 528 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 1: NFC West cards on the grind, and now this Kyler 529 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 1: thing popping up. 530 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,160 Speaker 3: Jacoby Brissette can only take you so far. 531 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 1: NFC East potentially becoming more interesting now that the Commanders 532 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,920 Speaker 1: are healthy, but the Cowboys have nothing and it's it's 533 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 1: cool right now, doesn't this feels like soak in this 534 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 1: Jackson Dart cam Scataboo thing while you can. They are 535 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:35,359 Speaker 1: going to lose games in embarrassing fashion in twenty twenty five. 536 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 1: There's nothing magical happening. Just from a pragmatic football fan standpoint, 537 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 1: They're great for the sport, They're super entertaining. The personality 538 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: mix there is awesome love that and Jackson Dart's fun 539 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 1: to watch in this bowling ball in Scataboo's super cool. 540 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 3: So I dig it, I just the tin. 541 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 1: The wheels are going to fall off that thing and 542 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 1: Dave All will be probably looking for a new job 543 00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,679 Speaker 1: within the next year or so. But man, it's just 544 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:02,479 Speaker 1: it's super muddy in the NFC. 545 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 3: Again. 546 00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 1: That's kind of what I take away from that game 547 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:09,199 Speaker 1: is the way that I looked at the Chiefs and 548 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 1: just kind of the downturn. 549 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:11,959 Speaker 3: Everything is so hard. 550 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 1: It feels like for them to find themselves over the top, 551 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 1: and it probably is going to be that way all year, 552 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 1: but they still find their way to the finish line. 553 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 1: And again, just a game behind a Chargers team that 554 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 1: is incredibly injured right now Broncos team still coming together, 555 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: still growing. You mentioned the struggles they had against the Jets, 556 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:35,920 Speaker 1: who are zero and six. Aaron Glenn, by the way, 557 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: hoof that is a problem in New York. 558 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 3: It's the Jets. 559 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 1: So I guess maybe that's just what we came to expect. So, 560 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 1: but cool, cool weekend of games. 561 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 4: Number two, The Wild did not have a cool weekend 562 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,959 Speaker 4: of games because the home opener did not go anything 563 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 4: to play on a seven to four l to Columbus. 564 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 4: They go again tonight at Grand Casino Arena. They get 565 00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 4: through Dowdy and the Kings the Lions. We still haven't 566 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 4: see what the lines are gonna look like tonight. I'd 567 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 4: imagine there'd be some shake up because the first line 568 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 4: was great. They produced every single goal of the Wild scord. Yeah, 569 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 4: everyone else not so much. So you have to not 570 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 4: assume but hope that maybe Boldie goes on the second 571 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 4: line to kind of spread the love a little bit. 572 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 3: Well, what's the philosophy behind that? 573 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:22,719 Speaker 1: You potentially ruin or change chemistry, right, But I mean potentially, 574 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,719 Speaker 1: But I think Capriceov is good enough to where if 575 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 1: he has you know, Eck and Tarasenko, he could still 576 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: produce okay, And I think you're better off letting capriceof 577 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,080 Speaker 1: do the work on the top line and maybe let 578 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 1: a really balanced rossy Boldie and you know who. 579 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 4: Knows, maybe Ogrin let me dream, you know, a y're of. 580 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 4: But I don't think that's what they're gonna do. But 581 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 4: that's that would be my diagnosis. What do you think 582 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 4: of the game tonight against Drew Dowdy, who hates caprisof. 583 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: Well, I'll be honest, it's it's very surface level for me, 584 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 1: just two games into the season and still trying to 585 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 1: get a grasp of what they do have outside of 586 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,680 Speaker 1: that that high flying line right now? Man, so you 587 00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 1: heard with Gore to open the show, just Tarasenko just plodding. 588 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 1: Where are you going to get without Zucarello and now Storm? 589 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 1: Although Sturm never really going to be relied upon as 590 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 1: a goal scorer. I know that I'm just speaking strictly 591 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 1: on roster depth at this stage, but the without Zucarello, 592 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: where are you going to get the goals? Where you're 593 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 1: gonna get the goals outside of that line as you 594 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 1: just laid out, and it's got to be the Tarasenko type. 595 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:24,880 Speaker 3: So Fiala's going to come in here. 596 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 1: Fiala is full of you know, vigor and and they're 597 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: going to be an absolute challenge. They're just kind of 598 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 1: a cool team. I kind of love. Whether it's I mean, 599 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 1: I don't it's not like, you know, I'm interested in 600 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 1: going up against McDavid on a nightly basis, but just 601 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 1: the just those West Coast teams, man, whether it's it's 602 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 1: the Kings, the Oilers to an extent because of some 603 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 1: goaltending issues that they've had historically, Like these are freaking 604 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 1: over games, like these are seven eight, nine goal games 605 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 1: that's not preferred, like giving up seven and putting fifty 606 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 1: shots on Elvis, not finding your way through. You did 607 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 1: have some power play goals, which is sweet, but uh, 608 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 1: but it's just gonna be It's gonna be an enjoyable game. 609 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 1: But Tarasenko would be one of the people that I'm 610 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:10,720 Speaker 1: specifically watching. I just want to know if you still 611 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 1: got it, that's all I have it. Let's let's do 612 00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 1: this because I know you put some playoff baseball and 613 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 1: some stuff, some bits into the mix as well, So 614 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 1: we will revisit this during the final hour. Because I'm 615 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 1: kind of pumped. You're a Braves fan, I'm a I'm 616 00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 1: a Twins fan and both in adul drums. 617 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 3: Right now. 618 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 1: I'm loving the brew crew Man, and it's I mean, 619 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 1: it's tough. It's gonna be daunting against the Dodgers. I 620 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 1: think Game once tonight, and I'm sure Rob Manfred is 621 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 1: just super excited. 622 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 3: Hey, let's have a Brewers Mariners World Series. 623 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 1: Although cal Raleigh big Dumper found his way with a 624 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,080 Speaker 1: solo shot I think last night in Game one of 625 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 1: the Alcs over the Blue Jays. 626 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 4: But different things, just a hunk a metal. Anyways, the 627 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 4: world series trophies, what does it matter? That's all that. 628 00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 4: That's all that it matters. 629 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 1: But I do want to revisit some some non Viking 630 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 1: centric top maybe sometime in the final hour. But next, 631 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 1: let's let's pause. Let's get to PJ. Fleck, head coach 632 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 1: Gophers football.

I think 643 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 6: that was really really special for us and just a 644 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 6: great atmosphere. And we found enough, found enough plays and 645 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 6: our playmakers stepped up and made those plays in the 646 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 6: critical moments to find a way to win. So we 647 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:50,960 Speaker 6: knew we're going to be in a lot of one 648 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 6: possession games this year, and so far, so good with 649 00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 6: two and ohero and one possession games within the league, 650 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 6: and know that there's gonna be a lot more around 651 00:32:57,840 --> 00:32:58,240 Speaker 6: the corner. 652 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, And that's kind of how I framed it up. 653 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 1: I'm an outsider, you're an insider, but I like to 654 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,239 Speaker 1: make things simple in terms of it felt like in 655 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,840 Speaker 1: some ways that was like a test of will where 656 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 1: your squad just wanted it more, you found the answer 657 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:14,479 Speaker 1: in the end and grinding your way to a victory. 658 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 1: Is it fair to sum it up or maybe that's 659 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 1: just too simplistic. 660 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 6: Well, if you look at the stat sheet and you 661 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 6: took away the turnover margin. You look at it, you're like, Okay, 662 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 6: maybe Perdue won that football game, But then you throw 663 00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 6: the turnover margin in there, and we win that four 664 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 6: to one, right, which is a huge statistic in the game. 665 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,840 Speaker 6: And then I thought our players and our best players 666 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 6: played their best in the biggest moments during that game 667 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 6: when we needed it the most, whether that was Coy's 668 00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 6: pick six or Carry Brown's interception, or Jonson McMillan's play 669 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 6: at the very end to end the game, and Drake 670 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:49,600 Speaker 6: Lindsay's fourth down run, or James and Gears touchdown, our 671 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,480 Speaker 6: special teams, s field goals. All of our guys did 672 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 6: what they had to do. Sometimes as a fan or 673 00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 6: in the media or even as a coach, you look 674 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 6: at it through this, okay, idealistic and perfect world. It's 675 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 6: not gonna be that way. You've got to look at 676 00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 6: it through a real world and real realistic lens, and 677 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 6: they're gonna get they get paid. We're all scholarship too, 678 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 6: they're fighting for wins. Their three losses leading up to 679 00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 6: ours was all by ranked teams, so they were a 680 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:19,400 Speaker 6: really good football team who could score at will. I 681 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 6: loved how our guys just continue to stay in there. 682 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:23,799 Speaker 6: They stayed resilient, found a way at the end to 683 00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 6: make one more play than produce. So we're very very 684 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 6: glad to be one to ohero and have moved on 685 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 6: to Nebraska. 686 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:30,520 Speaker 3: Well that's awesome. 687 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 1: Man as is becoming custom Parker Fox in studio on 688 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,879 Speaker 1: Mondays and here he is joining the chat. 689 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 5: Parker Hey, coach, congratulations on the wind, super fun environment. 690 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:40,959 Speaker 3: Awesome to be there. 691 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 5: I just want you to talk about your guy, Corey Perrich, 692 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 5: obviously the athlete he is, but talk about the mental 693 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:50,239 Speaker 5: toughness of a kid who hasn't had an interception all year, 694 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:52,759 Speaker 5: had a bunch of success early in this freshman year. 695 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 3: How do you stay the course? 696 00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:55,960 Speaker 5: How do you stay mentally locked in when you're not 697 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 5: making the exact plays you want to defensively, but then 698 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:00,640 Speaker 5: you make the big one you bring to the house 699 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 5: to win the game on homecoming. 700 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 3: So just talk about his mental toughness. 701 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, Marker. It's so interesting because like I think, in basketball, 702 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 6: you can kind of like one person out of the 703 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:13,520 Speaker 6: five can kind of take over the game and just 704 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:17,879 Speaker 6: keep shooting and then eventually the fall. In football, you're 705 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:20,399 Speaker 6: part of one of eleven, right, and so I think 706 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 6: that what happens is when a person's not making plays 707 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,480 Speaker 6: they think they should, or they're comparing stats from a 708 00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:30,560 Speaker 6: former year or a past year, they some people can 709 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 6: press and some people can go try to make a play. 710 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 6: And I thought a cow all of our playmakers were 711 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 6: trying to make a play instead of being within the 712 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 6: system and allowing the players to come to you and 713 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 6: then when they do make the appropriate play. And I 714 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 6: thought over the last few weeks, our big time players 715 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:49,799 Speaker 6: have done that. They've allowed the players to come to 716 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:53,520 Speaker 6: them with they stayed within the scheme, and then naturally, 717 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 6: you're a great athlete, so those plays are going to 718 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:57,799 Speaker 6: be made, and when they present themselves, you got to 719 00:35:57,800 --> 00:35:59,799 Speaker 6: go make it. But if you start going above and 720 00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 6: be on a circle on outside the scheme, that can 721 00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:06,279 Speaker 6: really hurt the football team and derail you a little 722 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:09,840 Speaker 6: bit schematically and then give the opponent an advantage. But 723 00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:12,319 Speaker 6: I just love his preparation. I love his resolve and 724 00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 6: his resiliency coming back from that Kale game. I think 725 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:18,240 Speaker 6: he's played three really good games. And I think everybody 726 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 6: has this. I think I said this in my post game. 727 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:25,279 Speaker 6: That's this superhero type mentality when somebody has a really 728 00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:27,880 Speaker 6: good year, they immediately get put in a comic book 729 00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:32,480 Speaker 6: and superhero category where good always wins out. They're always 730 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:33,880 Speaker 6: going to make a play and they're always going to, 731 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,319 Speaker 6: you know, end the game at USC or UCLA or 732 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,920 Speaker 6: pick fix it. And why aren't they? You know, defenses 733 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:42,720 Speaker 6: and offenses are really smart. They're they're made to allow 734 00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:46,719 Speaker 6: your playmakers to really not affect the game. And that's 735 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 6: what really good coaches do. But we live in this 736 00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:51,319 Speaker 6: like comic book world at times, and then if it 737 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:55,440 Speaker 6: doesn't happen, like what's going on? So our guys are 738 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:57,760 Speaker 6: just stuck to the process. Koy stuck to the process 739 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,759 Speaker 6: of improvement, and I'm really proud of for that. So 740 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 6: we got a long way to go. He's got a 741 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:04,640 Speaker 6: lot of development to continue to get better at. But 742 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:06,920 Speaker 6: I do love his commitment to that process. 743 00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 3: Parker, and I know. 744 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:12,239 Speaker 1: You would prefer every game was like Northwestern State. It's 745 00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:15,080 Speaker 1: not a sweat you win by seven touchdowns, et cetera. 746 00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:17,879 Speaker 1: But how good did that final drive in the fourth 747 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:21,360 Speaker 1: feel like? Just before the pick six? In fact, fourteen 748 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:25,319 Speaker 1: plays seventy yards nearly seven minutes off the clock. This 749 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:27,759 Speaker 1: was when you needed it, and you needed plays to 750 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 1: be made. I mean that kind of stuff just takes 751 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:33,040 Speaker 1: an opponent soul PJ that kind of drive in the 752 00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 1: fourth then you get the pick six like that drive 753 00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 1: to be able to cash that in that had to 754 00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:39,000 Speaker 1: feel special in the moment. 755 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:42,640 Speaker 6: Well, it felt really good, especially in the moment. It's 756 00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:45,279 Speaker 6: all definitely better after when the game's over and we won. 757 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:47,680 Speaker 6: But we did what we had to do to win 758 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:49,839 Speaker 6: the football game. And I think that that's more than 759 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 6: any other year. I think being at Minnesota, this particular 760 00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 6: football team, with this particular confidence conference, with the parody 761 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,279 Speaker 6: that's in this league, you have to find a lot 762 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:05,319 Speaker 6: of different ways to win games than just doing X, 763 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:08,399 Speaker 6: Y or Z that you've always done, because everybody's going 764 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:11,320 Speaker 6: to take away what you do well and there's a 765 00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:13,279 Speaker 6: lot of parody in the league, and so you've got 766 00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:15,960 Speaker 6: to find a way to execute at a high level 767 00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 6: and to be incredibly balanced. And I don't mean fifty 768 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 6: to fifty. I mean doing what you have to do 769 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 6: to win the particular game, that particular game, based on 770 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:26,600 Speaker 6: what the game's telling you. And if you look at 771 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:28,839 Speaker 6: our two wins in the league, we had to throw 772 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:30,960 Speaker 6: the ball we had more than we've naturally wanted to 773 00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:33,680 Speaker 6: rush the football. Doesn't mean we can't rush the football, 774 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,280 Speaker 6: just the game has dictated something a little bit different 775 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,080 Speaker 6: than maybe what we thought it was going to dictate. 776 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:42,360 Speaker 6: So we've got to find a way to be more 777 00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:46,520 Speaker 6: on the attacking end and us creating the tempo of 778 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:49,439 Speaker 6: the game that our opponent. But I'm really really proud 779 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:51,200 Speaker 6: of that drive. That was a big drive for us, 780 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 6: the four team play drive. That's very difficult to do, 781 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 6: but that's why. That's what you want, and that's what 782 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 6: you look for in practice all offseason and as you 783 00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:00,960 Speaker 6: get towards the training camp and then week the week, 784 00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:02,719 Speaker 6: you want to be able to execute in those drives. 785 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:04,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, coach, as we know, and nothing is more important 786 00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:09,320 Speaker 5: than the next game. What kind of opponent is Nebraska? Obviously, 787 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,400 Speaker 5: you have a really talented running back at EMC Johnson, 788 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:16,719 Speaker 5: Minneapolis native, a good quarterback in Dan Rayola. This is 789 00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:19,120 Speaker 5: a night game underneath the lights. What kind of threat 790 00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:22,160 Speaker 5: does Nebraska poe is coming into Huntingdon Bank Stadium on Saturday. 791 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:25,280 Speaker 6: Well, they're a top twenty five team. I mean, that's 792 00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 6: the threat that they are. Those rules a phenomenal football coach. 793 00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:32,280 Speaker 6: You know, I think somebody on the interview this morning 794 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,440 Speaker 6: talked a little bit about their finding themselves. I think 795 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 6: they found themselves. I think they know exactly who they 796 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:38,600 Speaker 6: are and I think that you know, they're one of 797 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:42,200 Speaker 6: the better teams in our league, their top twenty five team. 798 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:46,640 Speaker 6: Rayola has really played a tremendous football over the last 799 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 6: six weeks. And you look at his improvement from last 800 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:51,720 Speaker 6: year this year with coach Olverson, and that just continues 801 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:54,080 Speaker 6: to get better and better. And their defense throws a 802 00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:55,880 Speaker 6: lot at you. They blitzed a lot, a lot of 803 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:59,480 Speaker 6: different fronts and coverages. They constantly keep you guessing, and 804 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:01,600 Speaker 6: they've got the athletes to do it. And I think, 805 00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 6: you know, coach Rule probably feels as comfortable as he's 806 00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:07,239 Speaker 6: ever been with the roster that he's built. And you know, 807 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:09,399 Speaker 6: you'd expect to see that out of a Matt Rule 808 00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:12,839 Speaker 6: team on multiple years.

My man, you you 825 00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 1: were at the game and just I'm I'm on my couch, 826 00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 1: I'm watching it, so very different perspectives, but it's but 827 00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:56,960 Speaker 1: it's homecoming. 828 00:40:57,560 --> 00:40:58,120 Speaker 3: I think PJ. 829 00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:01,719 Speaker 1: PJ mentioned like two hundred plus a lum so you've 830 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:03,640 Speaker 1: been part of many homecomings. You know how these things 831 00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:06,320 Speaker 1: work and they're festive and they're fun. It was not 832 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:10,439 Speaker 1: fun watching whatever for a large part of that game, 833 00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:12,960 Speaker 1: just trying to figure out how to stop the run, 834 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:15,439 Speaker 1: trying to figure out how to get your own drive going. 835 00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 1: This is now, you know, it's kind of becoming a 836 00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:21,320 Speaker 1: talker with this team where the Gophers who are coached 837 00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:22,839 Speaker 1: by a guy that wants to run the hell out 838 00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:26,520 Speaker 1: of the ball, can't run the freaking ball. And then 839 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 1: in a span of really I mean two plays right 840 00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 1: touchdown after I think it was was it beers? 841 00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:34,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, they did the shotgun celebration of course, 842 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:35,840 Speaker 5: class with the score. 843 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:37,319 Speaker 1: And then on the back side of it, I think 844 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:39,320 Speaker 1: first play of the next drive, Paris is headed in 845 00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:40,640 Speaker 1: for the lead on the pick six. 846 00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:43,960 Speaker 3: Like how quickly that thing changed at Huntington Bank. That 847 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:45,520 Speaker 3: was sweet. Yeah, it really was. 848 00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:48,320 Speaker 5: It was one of those games where it was like, oh, no, 849 00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:51,759 Speaker 5: like just I've seen it before. I saw Bowling Green 850 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:53,640 Speaker 5: come and beat us in homecoming I think maybe my 851 00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:56,399 Speaker 5: first or second year at the U. I was like, oh, 852 00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:58,879 Speaker 5: this is It's just such a fun environment night game. 853 00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:01,439 Speaker 5: The lights are bright, like said, two hundred plus a long, 854 00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:03,040 Speaker 5: and you want the guys to come out and you 855 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:04,239 Speaker 5: want them to show out and you want them to 856 00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 5: have a good game. And Purdue brings the ball in 857 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:08,160 Speaker 5: the field they score it right away, and it's like, oh, 858 00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:10,640 Speaker 5: this could be another one of those. Yeah, but I 859 00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:13,080 Speaker 5: think you do have to look at the resilience of 860 00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:15,759 Speaker 5: this team. Obviously, like you mentioned, this is a as 861 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,279 Speaker 5: we've seen PJ Flex team. They want the ground game, 862 00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:20,000 Speaker 5: they want to give it to Darius Taylor, and they 863 00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:22,400 Speaker 5: want him to run the football. Only fourteen carries for 864 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:27,279 Speaker 5: Darius Taylor thirty two yards, not the going to aggressive performance. 865 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:28,719 Speaker 5: But but then you look at him out of the 866 00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,279 Speaker 5: backfield six catches for sixty seven Like that's something that 867 00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:33,160 Speaker 5: makes a little bit more sense to us when we 868 00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 5: think about Darius Taylor. But I do give the defense 869 00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:38,840 Speaker 5: a lot of credit. Only allowing three points in the 870 00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:40,960 Speaker 5: second half. I think that's kind of what you got 871 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:42,839 Speaker 5: to look at when you're this go for football team, 872 00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:44,600 Speaker 5: is how do we win this football game? But we 873 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:46,319 Speaker 5: only gave up three points in the second half. 874 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:48,680 Speaker 1: You know, it's fine, I mean completely different. You know, 875 00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:52,000 Speaker 1: you lose to Purdue. Big ten operation. That has its 876 00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:55,839 Speaker 1: negative impact, of course, but that that Bowling Green game, 877 00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:57,560 Speaker 1: Now now you got me thinking, because. 878 00:42:57,360 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, sorry to bring that one up. Oh well ten 879 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:01,200 Speaker 3: something like that. 880 00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:05,000 Speaker 1: I think the final was low scoring, but similar in 881 00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:09,680 Speaker 1: this game where Bowling Green was doing everything they could, 882 00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 1: clomping around to let the Gophers take the game. Okay, 883 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 1: we've tried and it's a cute little operation, but eventually 884 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 1: this big ten operation is going to beat us, and 885 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:23,120 Speaker 1: it just doesn't happen. Perdue, I mean, getting everything they 886 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:26,560 Speaker 1: wanted on the ground. They actually tried to give away 887 00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:29,160 Speaker 1: the game and we actually took it this time. I mean, 888 00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:32,840 Speaker 1: just the the interceptions. I think maybe it was Carmo 889 00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:35,960 Speaker 1: that had a fumble recovery as well, he hit it early. 890 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:40,320 Speaker 1: Just the turnover situation, and then even on that drive 891 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:42,279 Speaker 1: that I mentioned, as good as it was, we love it. 892 00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:45,319 Speaker 1: Seven minutes off the clock, it's fourth quarter, it's go time, 893 00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:49,399 Speaker 1: and everyone shows up. How about this Demico Kennedy cat. 894 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:53,360 Speaker 1: I think he had two face masks on that particular 895 00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:57,560 Speaker 1: drive alone, and so that put him. I mean, they're, like, 896 00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:01,120 Speaker 1: I gotta be honest with Perdue, very vikings, like in 897 00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:05,840 Speaker 1: their penalties, okay, very undisciplined, and in some ways that 898 00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:09,440 Speaker 1: cost them the game. And so the turnovers and penalties. 899 00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:11,640 Speaker 1: You know, the college game ain't so different than the 900 00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:14,120 Speaker 1: pros in the respect that you have to stay disciplined 901 00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:16,560 Speaker 1: and you got to hold onto the freaking football, and 902 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 1: this time our squad took it. I can actually see 903 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:21,719 Speaker 1: some similarities between that and Bowling Green. 904 00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:24,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a very simple game, right, Nordoh it's a 905 00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:27,560 Speaker 5: very simple Yeah, there's a lot of things that happened, 906 00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 5: And one thing I wanted to highlight that I loved 907 00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:32,799 Speaker 5: was I think they got a touchdown in the right 908 00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:35,040 Speaker 5: corner of the end zone and the kid on produced 909 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:37,719 Speaker 5: rowing the boat, and you just love to see that 910 00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:40,000 Speaker 5: come back and bite you, similar to what Jamar Chase 911 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:44,759 Speaker 5: had in the Packers game Packers versus Bengals game. Oh yeah, 912 00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:48,200 Speaker 5: the third down situation, pass breakup and then he comes 913 00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:51,680 Speaker 5: and makes it an unbelievable touchdown catch. So you love 914 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:53,760 Speaker 5: to see guys celebrating and then kind of get thrown 915 00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:56,040 Speaker 5: back in their face. But like I said, you know, 916 00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:58,160 Speaker 5: it's a simple game and you just have to make 917 00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:00,840 Speaker 5: simple plays. And I think that's one thing I do 918 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:03,839 Speaker 5: have to give PJ a lot of credit for, as 919 00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:06,760 Speaker 5: he had his guys willing to make the simple plays 920 00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:09,120 Speaker 5: in the second half and ultimately that leads to a victory. 921 00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:12,040 Speaker 5: And as as koy Perrich said in his postgame interview, 922 00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:14,680 Speaker 5: yes he made the play, Yes he made the interception. 923 00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:16,799 Speaker 5: Yes he has the legs to bring it to the house, 924 00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:20,120 Speaker 5: but that's a defensive interception. They're playing a simple zone 925 00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:23,240 Speaker 5: coverage quarterback tries to throw it over the top, doesn't 926 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:24,240 Speaker 5: have enough loft, Cooy. 927 00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:25,839 Speaker 3: Parrich goes and makes the play, brings to the end zone. 928 00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 5: So you got to give defensive coordinator a lot of 929 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:29,919 Speaker 5: credit for that, But you also have to give PJ 930 00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:32,279 Speaker 5: and Koy, you know, for just being able to make 931 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:33,120 Speaker 5: that kind of play well. 932 00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 1: And that's so I was thinking about it, and like 933 00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:37,920 Speaker 1: he said in the col game, and just kind of 934 00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,879 Speaker 1: referenced a lot of different people, Yeah, grip it right, 935 00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:44,480 Speaker 1: like they're trying to make the play and in some ways, 936 00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:49,160 Speaker 1: constantly thinking that you have to rise to some supernatural 937 00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:52,279 Speaker 1: occasion is is kind of a I mean, it's a 938 00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:56,080 Speaker 1: recipe for some form of disaster or at least inaptitude 939 00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:59,360 Speaker 1: or mistakes at a fundamental level. I only saw the 940 00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:02,319 Speaker 1: TV cop. That was just kind of a bad throw, 941 00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:05,160 Speaker 1: wasn't it. I've only seen the one angle that most 942 00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:07,600 Speaker 1: people saw. I watched it and it kind of just 943 00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:10,440 Speaker 1: looks like he didn't see Koy and he thought he 944 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:12,600 Speaker 1: could just laser that thing in there or kind of 945 00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:14,240 Speaker 1: like you said, it didn't have enough loft. 946 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:17,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was kind of just a terrible throw. Yeah, 947 00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:19,360 Speaker 3: it was a quarterback. 948 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:20,799 Speaker 5: I don't I don't know, Coy's got to be there 949 00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:22,480 Speaker 5: to make but you're right, you know what I mean 950 00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:25,120 Speaker 5: is going to test the person. And we've seen it 951 00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:27,000 Speaker 5: enough times nor at all where dbacks will have the 952 00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:28,800 Speaker 5: ball in their hands and they just drop it to 953 00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:30,400 Speaker 5: the floor. That's why they're not receivers. 954 00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:30,560 Speaker 6: Right. 955 00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:33,479 Speaker 5: We like to make that joke, But but Coy Parritch 956 00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:35,320 Speaker 5: is going to make that play nine nine percent of 957 00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:37,520 Speaker 5: the time, and then he's got the athletic ability to 958 00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:38,200 Speaker 5: bring it to the house. 959 00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:39,279 Speaker 3: So give him a lot of. 960 00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:41,600 Speaker 5: Credit for that, but also a lot of credit to 961 00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:43,680 Speaker 5: the defensive coordinator for putting those guys in the right spots. 962 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:45,760 Speaker 1: And it's kind of crazy. We've talked about this before 963 00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:48,400 Speaker 1: with this squad, but it's like, he can't. You just 964 00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:50,080 Speaker 1: can't lose that game the other night. 965 00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:50,680 Speaker 2: You can't. 966 00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:53,960 Speaker 1: I mean just the way and and Cal was kind 967 00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:57,440 Speaker 1: of a frustrating moment, and Cal was game in that spot. 968 00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:01,000 Speaker 1: And even prior, I mean, you are you are in 969 00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:03,840 Speaker 1: a position to potentially go take the lead. I believe 970 00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,080 Speaker 1: you were down by a field goal. I think when 971 00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:09,320 Speaker 1: Coy muffs the punt, I think that's what it was. 972 00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:12,200 Speaker 1: Seventeen to fourteen they end up losing I think twenty 973 00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:15,360 Speaker 1: seven to fourteen, But so that was frustrating. 974 00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:16,960 Speaker 3: You get to buy, you get the chill, and then 975 00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:18,359 Speaker 3: you start playing the schedule game. 976 00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:21,040 Speaker 1: It's like just hold hold, serve at home and you're 977 00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:23,760 Speaker 1: finding yourself in a pretty good spot in the conference. 978 00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 1: You can't lose that freaking game. And that's how it 979 00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:28,720 Speaker 1: felt for three quarters. It was kind of like Opening 980 00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:32,000 Speaker 1: Night against the Bears for Vikings fans. McCarthy, what are 981 00:47:32,080 --> 00:47:35,200 Speaker 1: we freaking doing here? And then three straight scoring drives 982 00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:37,800 Speaker 1: and he's NFC Player of the Week and maybe that 983 00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:41,160 Speaker 1: sadly made us forget that the other three quarters existed. 984 00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:45,239 Speaker 1: But man Drake and just and then Koy with that play, 985 00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:49,000 Speaker 1: like needed that w because I think Nebraska is kind 986 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:49,520 Speaker 1: of on their. 987 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:52,240 Speaker 5: Way up well kind of a trap game, and Purdue, 988 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:55,879 Speaker 5: in a sense, probably the worst Big Ten team you're 989 00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:56,560 Speaker 5: gonna play. 990 00:47:56,760 --> 00:47:57,799 Speaker 3: Rutgers might be in. 991 00:47:57,880 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 5: That conversation too, But you about Northwestern, well, northwesterns they're solid, 992 00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:02,879 Speaker 5: They're really there. 993 00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:04,359 Speaker 3: I think they're a solid football team. 994 00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:08,080 Speaker 5: I have obviously haven't watched enough Northwestern football this year, 995 00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:10,600 Speaker 5: but but but a good start for them. They just 996 00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:12,600 Speaker 5: got to win at Penn State. Yeah, we know the 997 00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:16,440 Speaker 5: struggles of Penn State. They got to win at UCLA. 998 00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:18,320 Speaker 5: They've kind of turned Ucla has kind of turned it 999 00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:21,120 Speaker 5: around since then. Maybe sure, But but I like that 1000 00:48:21,239 --> 00:48:24,200 Speaker 5: Northwestern team. And anytime, you know, you have one of 1001 00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:26,240 Speaker 5: those games where both teams love to run the football, 1002 00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:28,160 Speaker 5: they want to dirty the ground up, you got to 1003 00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:31,120 Speaker 5: go to Northwestern at the end of the season. We're 1004 00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:33,919 Speaker 5: talking about an end of November type of game where 1005 00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:36,759 Speaker 5: there could be some snow on the ground there on 1006 00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:38,680 Speaker 5: the lake, you get the wind effect coming off the lakes. 1007 00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:42,160 Speaker 5: There's a lot of other variables people, Yeah, exactly, a 1008 00:48:42,200 --> 00:48:42,960 Speaker 5: lot of variables. 1009 00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:45,560 Speaker 3: But but I look at this, you know, Gopher schedule and. 1010 00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:49,680 Speaker 5: It's like oh Man, Nebraska, Iowa, Michigan State, Oregon, Wisconsin. 1011 00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:52,120 Speaker 5: All games like none of those are gimmes. Even even 1012 00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:54,440 Speaker 5: the you know, the Wisconsin game, that's a rivalry game. 1013 00:48:54,480 --> 00:48:57,000 Speaker 5: That's not a gimme. So you have to find ways 1014 00:48:57,040 --> 00:48:59,080 Speaker 5: to beat a team like Purdue. And at the end 1015 00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:00,960 Speaker 5: of the day, Nordo is as we talk enough about 1016 00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:03,359 Speaker 5: with any sports, it doesn't matter how much you win 1017 00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:05,480 Speaker 5: by as long as there is a green W next 1018 00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:07,239 Speaker 5: to that name and the Gophers found a way to 1019 00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:07,440 Speaker 5: do that. 1020 00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:11,160 Speaker 3: Oh that's true. Now I will say this Wisconsin might 1021 00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:12,920 Speaker 3: be a gimme. Yeah, that one might be a game. 1022 00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 1: That's wrong with the Badgers. Now Iowa has a right 1023 00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:18,520 Speaker 1: to go put thirty seven on them. 1024 00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:20,000 Speaker 3: I did not watch that game. 1025 00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:24,839 Speaker 1: I mean, apparently Iowa found a guy that can throw 1026 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:28,320 Speaker 1: the ball. Okay, So I have not done adequate research 1027 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:30,799 Speaker 1: to see exactly what's going on down in Iowa City. 1028 00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:34,920 Speaker 3: Wisconsin is just dreadful. I couldn't be happier about it. 1029 00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:37,759 Speaker 5: Yeah, it fires me up to And now they have 1030 00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:40,919 Speaker 5: to play at home against Ohio State and that could 1031 00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:44,200 Speaker 5: be if you're losing at home to Iowa thirty seven rip, 1032 00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:48,560 Speaker 5: that could easily sixty rip against Ohio State. So Wisconsin 1033 00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:51,200 Speaker 5: kind of in a bad position. And they keep paying 1034 00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:54,040 Speaker 5: their head coach as well, so they know something we don't. 1035 00:49:54,120 --> 00:49:56,279 Speaker 5: Maybe I don't know what's going on, but to look 1036 00:49:56,280 --> 00:49:58,520 Speaker 5: at the Golfer schedule ahead of them that this Nebraska 1037 00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:00,640 Speaker 5: team that's coming in this is a a really solid 1038 00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:03,520 Speaker 5: football team. Ye Ryola at the quarterback position, he is 1039 00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:06,440 Speaker 5: an absolute stud. Throws the ball all over the field. 1040 00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:09,920 Speaker 5: We've seen all the Patrick Mahomes comparisons obviously not to 1041 00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:10,439 Speaker 5: that level. 1042 00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:12,920 Speaker 1: But then a guy I want to in the comparison 1043 00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:15,920 Speaker 1: because Rayola himself is all his antics. 1044 00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:18,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, so it's it's antics. And I think even like 1045 00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:19,600 Speaker 3: the similar. 1046 00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:22,600 Speaker 5: Haircare style, wears the same sunglasses, the whole it's it's 1047 00:50:22,640 --> 00:50:25,640 Speaker 5: a little weird when you really dissect it, like when 1048 00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:27,680 Speaker 5: you really go deep into like the fact that he's 1049 00:50:27,719 --> 00:50:30,640 Speaker 5: wearing the same sunglasses. He does the same pregame warm ups, 1050 00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:32,480 Speaker 5: he does the jumps, he's got the same cleats, like 1051 00:50:32,520 --> 00:50:33,040 Speaker 5: the whole deal. 1052 00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:35,279 Speaker 3: It's it's actually kind of odd. Does he yell? I 1053 00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:36,600 Speaker 3: am him? Probably? 1054 00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:37,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1055 00:50:37,040 --> 00:50:38,520 Speaker 5: I mean, you know, that's kind of the saying these 1056 00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:41,160 Speaker 5: kids are saying nowadays. Noordo, But a guy I want 1057 00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:44,600 Speaker 5: to highlight. Emmitt Johnson, Minneapolis kid. I know him well, 1058 00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:48,000 Speaker 5: he's gonna look to come in here and really go 1059 00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:51,960 Speaker 5: to high school. He was a private school kid, a 1060 00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:56,799 Speaker 5: gosh like a Bake or a Breck or some sort 1061 00:50:56,800 --> 00:51:00,719 Speaker 5: of private school in Minnesota. Small a private school, but 1062 00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:03,200 Speaker 5: he's a Minneapolis kid. Was a basketball player as well, 1063 00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:05,440 Speaker 5: so knew him from that kind of aspect more than 1064 00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:07,239 Speaker 5: I knew him from the football side. 1065 00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:10,360 Speaker 1: Well, I'm gonna I'm absolutely gonna find this.
