1
00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 1: The volume. This is Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre. What

2
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 1: is up Straight Firefam? It's me Jason McIntyre, Straight Fire

3
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:25,079
Speaker 1: for Monday, November sixth. I should start the podcast with

4
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:28,520
Speaker 1: a happy college basketball season. You guys, do I love

5
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:33,800
Speaker 1: college hoops? The season begins tonight and let's go to football. Yeah.

6
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 1: I'm a huge hoops fan. Obviously played some moves over

7
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 1: the weekend, but the NFL on Sunday was as chaotic

8
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 1: and dramatic thrilling as it's been a while. Just so

9
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,519
Speaker 1: many good games and I don't know a lot to

10
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 1: choose from. We also we Jets Chargers Tonight should be

11
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 1: a good game to cap an exciting Week nine. But

12
00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, I gotta say, Dallas Cowboys, they nearly

13
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 1: did it. They almost did the unthinkable and took down

14
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 1: the Eagles. But then they turned into the Dallas Cowboys

15
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 1: of old and the Philadelphia Eagles survive, And they did survive.

16
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 1: Twenty eight twenty three, a game I thought, and a

17
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,399
Speaker 1: lot of other people did too, that Dak was gonna

18
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 1: finally get over the hurdle. We know he has not

19
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,960
Speaker 1: been able to win the big game the last couple

20
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,639
Speaker 1: of seasons, especially in the postseason. Earlier this year, the big,

21
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 1: massive landmark game against San fran They want revenge for

22
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 1: the last two playoff losses and they got smacked back

23
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:35,040
Speaker 1: to the boondocks forty two to ten against San Francisco.

24
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:39,320
Speaker 1: And listen, this was not that this Eagles team is

25
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 1: not as dominant as it was last year, and Dallas

26
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:46,319
Speaker 1: matches up pretty well with them, folks. The Dallas Cowboys

27
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 1: were inches, and I do mean inches away from taking

28
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 1: down the Eagles. Case in point fourth quarter, the Dallas

29
00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 1: Cowboys a fourth and goal and the the number two

30
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 1: tight end shoes is a shoemaker shooting Hower, whatever his

31
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 1: name is, catches the pass. It looks to be a touchdown,

32
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 1: but upon further review, his knees were down as he

33
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:14,919
Speaker 1: catches it and the ball is not in the end zone,

34
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 1: so it's down to the one inch line. Dallas gets

35
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 1: zero points inside the five yard line. Also in the

36
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:26,800
Speaker 1: fourth quarter, Dallas driving into into Philadelphia territory. They're at

37
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,919
Speaker 1: the Philly twenty nine yard line. They go for it

38
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 1: and they come up short. And then at the end

39
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 1: of the game, Dallas driving again inside the Philly thirty

40
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 1: and ceedee lamb is tackled around the five yard line

41
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: on ballgame and that's all she wrote. The Cowboys inches

42
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:53,359
Speaker 1: literally inches short, the tight end getting tackled at the

43
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,920
Speaker 1: one inch line, and then I forgot to add. Dak

44
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 1: Prescott had a two point conversion after a touchdown in

45
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter and he looked to dive in. He

46
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 1: looked like he got it. I was like, on my

47
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,119
Speaker 1: my think somebody was at my door and the dog

48
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: was barking. So I'm like getting ready to go to

49
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:09,799
Speaker 1: the door, but I don't want to pause the TV.

50
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 1: I want to just like let it play out. And

51
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: DA's going around the Enerny dives in. I'm like, oh, wow,

52
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 1: he got it. We got a game, three point game,

53
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: Dallas could tie up with the field goal. I get

54
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:19,639
Speaker 1: back from the door. I think it was a pizza

55
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 1: delivery guy. You know, Sunday's got a feet, gotta feet,

56
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 1: gotta eat, got to eat right with breadsticks, cheese sticks,

57
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 1: chicken wings, you know, all the unhealthy stuff. Hey, Sunday's

58
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 1: cheat day. But it's a workday. And I get back

59
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 1: and I look at the screen and they show the

60
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 1: replay and Dak's foot stepped out at about the three

61
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 1: yard line. The dive was fine, but he stepped out,

62
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 1: so again inches out of bounds. And then I'll add

63
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 1: another one. Philadelphia's just trying to run out the clock.

64
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: DeAndre Swift, are you kidding me? Literally runs into AJ Brown,

65
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: fumbles the balls right there. Dallas would have picked up

66
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 1: in great field position, and Michael Parsons, who was in

67
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,839
Speaker 1: the vicinity, could not get to it like a guy

68
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: starting at guard. I think recovers it just an unbelievably close,

69
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 1: really really good game. It doesn't seem like a lot

70
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 1: separates these teams. But I think the overreaction today is

71
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 1: going to be, you know, the Miami Dolphins cannot win

72
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 1: these big games, and neither can the Dallas Cowboys. Those

73
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 1: are the two teams that can't get the job done

74
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 1: when it matters most in the big spots. And this

75
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: is what Dallas does. And it'll happen in the playoffs.

76
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 1: And it happened now. It happened against San Francisco. Dallas

77
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 1: now two and a half games back of the Eagles,

78
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 1: the eight and one Eagles. I mean, folks, how bad

79
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,280
Speaker 1: did Philly try to give this game away? So even

80
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: when Dallas got the ball back with like what final

81
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: drive they had to go like eighty six yards right,

82
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 1: and that's I mean, it seemed like a long shot.

83
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,679
Speaker 1: The Eagles had fifty six yards in penalties, a dumb

84
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 1: late hit by Hassan Reddick on Dak and then a

85
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,159
Speaker 1: big PI that gave him thirty five yards of like

86
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,359
Speaker 1: the first play, I mean, Michael Gallup can't catch a

87
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 1: cole but sure, yeah, let me let me pass interfere

88
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: him in a very obvious spot. Like the Eagles tried

89
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,719
Speaker 1: really hard to give that game away. They did have

90
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 1: an injury to Goddard that did not look great. He

91
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:17,720
Speaker 1: was favoring his arm. Listen, I don't want to crap

92
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:19,840
Speaker 1: on McCarthy too. I know I saw Kevin Clark put

93
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 1: out a tweet that, you know, very uncharacteristic of Mike

94
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 1: McCarthy to blow a close game Dallas in these in

95
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 1: these close game situations, games that matter. Like I'm not

96
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: talking about like bad teams and even that Chargers game.

97
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 1: Chargers are a middling team, Okay, I'm talking about the elites,

98
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 1: the defending NFC champ Eagles, Like you gotta win that.

99
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:45,039
Speaker 1: If you're Dallas, you need that. You just wonder mentally

100
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 1: if these guys are going to be like, you know what,

101
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 1: that we just can't beat the best teams, I don't know.

102
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,039
Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. I did see the

103
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: stat that nobody has repeated as an NFC East champ

104
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 1: in nineteen years. The Eagles are strive to do that.

105
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: That being said, it's not over. I'm not declaring the

106
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 1: division Phillies, folks. They have a bye this week. They

107
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 1: will need to get healthy and then coming out of

108
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 1: the bye as tough of a five game stretch as

109
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 1: there is in the league this year. Case Buffalo, San

110
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 1: fran Dallas, Seattle. That is Casey arguably number one team

111
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 1: in the AFC. Buffalo sliding a little, but still ever

112
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 1: dangerous with that offense. San Francisco elite team. Probably by

113
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 1: the time this matchup happens in four weeks will be

114
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 1: at full strength healthy everywhere. Dallas, I mean, we just

115
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,359
Speaker 1: saw them play the Eagles to the final horn, and

116
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,719
Speaker 1: then Seattle, which we'll get to their butt kicking against

117
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 1: the Ravens. They did not look great, but they're still

118
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,039
Speaker 1: a good football team. It's like, you know, Gino Smith,

119
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:50,039
Speaker 1: the big question, so that Eagles schedule gets tough Dallas's

120
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,599
Speaker 1: schedule is fairly easy the next few weeks, so this

121
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,359
Speaker 1: is not over by any stretch of the imagination. But

122
00:06:55,480 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 1: I need to see Dallas stop a great team team

123
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 1: like San Francisco who's gonna run it down your throat,

124
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,480
Speaker 1: and a team like the Eagles who had three touchdown

125
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 1: drives yesterday of eleven plus plays, like they will just

126
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 1: grind you to dust. And how about the the brotherly

127
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 1: shove on the first drive and then after the Dallas

128
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 1: tight end was tackled at the one inch line, they

129
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 1: opened with the brotherly shove and Mike I saw the video.

130
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 1: Micah Parsons like jumped on top to try to get

131
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 1: a stop, but he essentially was crowdsurfing. He just got

132
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 1: pushed back like four yards. It was like riding the wave.

133
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: It was kind of funny, but an impressive showing from

134
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 1: the Eagles to hold on. And I'll just say I

135
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 1: was pretty impressed with Dallas. I think, man, it stinks

136
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 1: about losing digs, but this is a really dangerous Dallas

137
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: team if big, if they can get over the hump

138
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 1: in the massive game. Another team in a big spot

139
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: is the Buffalo Bills, who were kind of fading, and

140
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 1: they had Sunday night football against the Cincinnati Bengals. Bengals,

141
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 1: of course starting to surge. The Bengals I had in

142
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: the contest, and I was getting nervous. I ran hot

143
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: Sunday in the contest on a Sunday when a lot

144
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 1: of people did poorly in the contest, I gained some ground,

145
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 1: went four and one. The lone loss was the New

146
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 1: Orleans Saints, and Dennis Allen man, listen, folks, I'm gonna

147
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 1: talk about the Bengals, but I just a quick word,

148
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 1: and this is the frustrating part about gambling. Had a

149
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 1: good day. The teaser didn't get home. Things to Carolina

150
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 1: and Bryce Young will talk about him later. I did

151
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 1: get lucky with the under on Raiders and Giants at

152
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: landed thirty six. I had thirty seven, like things were good,

153
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 1: not great good, And then you got the Saints. And

154
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:45,200
Speaker 1: I'm just telling you, folks, I look at that Saints

155
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: Bears game, and I'm sure everybody's gonna see things differently.

156
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 1: But I would have had my second five and oh

157
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 1: of the season if all Dennis Allen had was a clue.

158
00:08:55,000 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 1: I cannot believe the ineptitude and silliness he did with

159
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 1: the play calling in the fourth quarter when t bag

160
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:09,959
Speaker 1: aka the Beijent Secret Beagent Man just kept doing really

161
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:14,559
Speaker 1: insanely stupid things. So the Bears were awesome in the

162
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 1: first half. I think there was probably a Saints got

163
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,680
Speaker 1: their asses chewed out at halftime and their defense locked down.

164
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 1: Final eight minutes of the game. Okay, Bears interception deep

165
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 1: in their own end. The Saints take over at the

166
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:34,560
Speaker 1: Chicago nineteen yard line. All they need is a field

167
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 1: goal to get to go up by ten to cover

168
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 1: the eight and a half, and Jennis Allen the Genius

169
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 1: try to quick snap on fourth and one with Derek

170
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 1: Carr doing the quarterback sneak. Just stop for a second,

171
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,720
Speaker 1: Derek Carr doing the quarterback sneak. You have the great

172
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,600
Speaker 1: Taysom Hill, who was having an awesome game, and I

173
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 1: trust him in so many big spots Taysom Hill put

174
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: bring him in, do the one yard carry. He's gonna

175
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: get it killed. Deny Derek Carr denied zero yard, zero points.

176
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 1: Bears another interception. Yeah, Beijing started to fade fast. Justin

177
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 1: fields certain, I mean I would expect him to start

178
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,679
Speaker 1: Thursday night, Bear Saints go three and out. Of course,

179
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:20,559
Speaker 1: Bears three and out, Saints easy drive field goal. All

180
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 1: you have to do is hit this field goal forty

181
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,079
Speaker 1: seven yard. The kick us up. I can see it hooking.

182
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,079
Speaker 1: I can see it hooking. It didn't miss it, hit

183
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:31,080
Speaker 1: the upright and bounced out. A doink goes against me. Finally,

184
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 1: Bears one more chance. Oh. All they gotta do is

185
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 1: go to the link to the field, tie it up

186
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 1: and Beijing fumble. Saints takeover to Bears eighteen. I'm looking

187
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 1: at the clock. I'm like two h five left. Okay, um,

188
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,719
Speaker 1: don't kick the field goal right. They cannot just take

189
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 1: the knee the rest of the game. This is when

190
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 1: Dennis Allen gets aggressive. Well, we don't want to kick

191
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:55,680
Speaker 1: too many things can go wrong. Let's just get the

192
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 1: first down. And they get the first down. No points.

193
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 1: So they had, just to remind you, three trips into

194
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 1: Chicago territory in the final eight minutes and total zero points.

195
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: All I needed was a field goal for a five

196
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 1: and zero. Anyways, you don't care about that. I just

197
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,320
Speaker 1: needed to get off my chest because those are the

198
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 1: ones that hurt. Man who cares that I hit the

199
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,200
Speaker 1: Browns the layup and then I switched at the last minute.

200
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 1: You know, you go Ravens. Who cares about that I missed?

201
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 1: And that frustrates me. But I do want to quickly

202
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: say Cincinnati Bengals, as everybody expected, look to be peaking.

203
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,319
Speaker 1: I'll just say this though. This is the second time

204
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 1: in three weeks that the Cincinnati Bengals have jumped out

205
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:37,959
Speaker 1: to an early lead, looked awesome in the first half,

206
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 1: and then offensively done nothing in the second half and

207
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:43,960
Speaker 1: they had to hold on to victory. The last time

208
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 1: was against the Seattle Seahawks, and I liked the Seahawks

209
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 1: in that one, and they had multiple chances, multiple and

210
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 1: Gino spent vomited all over himself. Buffalo kept getting chance

211
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:01,719
Speaker 1: after chance against the Bengals, and I mean, I'm a

212
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 1: little surprised by it. But Josh Allen had an interception,

213
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 1: Dalton Kincaid had a red zone fumble. It was just

214
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 1: one of those wacky, weird The Bengals don't look unbelievable.

215
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 1: They just they're getting it done. The Bills in the

216
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:20,719
Speaker 1: fourth of the Kincaid fumble with brutal I had him

217
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 1: in fantasy. It was just a tough one, you know.

218
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,440
Speaker 1: He went airborne and it was just a great punch

219
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,679
Speaker 1: out inside the red zone. Bengals hang on, they come

220
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 1: down and get the field goal and they win and cover.

221
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 1: Since I did not, they look great in the first

222
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 1: half Buffalo. I saw this stat. Buffalo had the ball

223
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 1: for eight minutes and fifty four seconds in the first half,

224
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,200
Speaker 1: just one hundred and twenty two yards. Because their defense

225
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 1: can can't stops. Joe Mixon had a solid game in

226
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,440
Speaker 1: the first half, did really nothing in the second half.

227
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 1: It came out of opening drive. It was good Burrow

228
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 1: three hundred and forty eight yards passing two touchdowns. It

229
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,439
Speaker 1: was t Higgins night, which did not help my Jamar

230
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 1: Chase fantasy numbers. But I'm looking at the Bengals receivers.

231
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 1: They had one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight

232
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 1: guys caught passes, seven caught three or more like he's

233
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:17,439
Speaker 1: spreading it around, whether it's Tanner, Hudson, Drew sample cutter touchdown,

234
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 1: IRV Smith junior cutter touchdown. They got options. This is

235
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: an interesting team. I don't know what to make of

236
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills, who are now five and four. They

237
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 1: have lost to the Jets, they have lost to the Patriots.

238
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: They have lost to Jacksonville and they lost to Cincinnati.

239
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,199
Speaker 1: Three of those four teams will be in the playoffs.

240
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,839
Speaker 1: Their wins this is Buffalo good or not, folks. Their

241
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 1: wins are against Vegas in Week two, Washington, Week three, Miami.

242
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:54,880
Speaker 1: It's a good win, the Giants and Tampa Bay. Next

243
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 1: up Denver should be a win, probably will smash them,

244
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:05,080
Speaker 1: and then it's Jets, Eagles, Chiefs, Cowboys, Chargers. There is

245
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,840
Speaker 1: a world where the Buffalo Bills missed the playoffs. And

246
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 1: I know people don't want to hear that, but you

247
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 1: look at that schedule, you look at how Buffalo's offense

248
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 1: has really struggled since that Miami game. Again early in

249
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 1: the season, they're cooking with gas. Thirty eight on the Raiders,

250
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 1: thirty seven on Washington. There were a couple defensive touchdowns

251
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 1: in there. Forty eight against Miami since that London trip,

252
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 1: twenty against Jacks, fourteen against the Giants, twenty five against

253
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: the Patriots, twenty four against the Bucks, and eighteen against

254
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 1: the Bengals. They're just not the offensive machine they were

255
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 1: two months ago. Is that on Josh Allen? I don't know,

256
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 1: but bottom line, the Buffalo Bills right now do not

257
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 1: look great. The Bengals do look very good. I'm not

258
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 1: going to give them the great label yet. We could

259
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 1: talk more about the overall league, but I want to

260
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 1: go through some more games. On Sunday, football is back.

00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: let's go to Germany Chiefs twenty one, Dolphins fourteen. We

277
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 1: pretty much peg this game. Although everybody in their mom

278
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 1: photos is gonna be high scoring, Miami was shut out.

279
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 1: Are you ready for this? For the first five minutes.

280
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 1: They were the highest scoring offense in the first half

281
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 1: in the NFL and they were blanked. Okay, that's the

282
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 1: kind of clinic Kansas City put on Miami in the

283
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 1: first half. Amazing defensive calling from Spagnolo. He mixed it

284
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,480
Speaker 1: up on Tua, and Tua really didn't know where things

285
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:19,560
Speaker 1: were coming from. Second half, they turn it around. Listen,

286
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 1: here's my thing about the Chiefs. They have not really

287
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 1: hit their stride yet. You know, they'll look dominant early

288
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 1: that opening drive boom, come out seven nothing, Then they

289
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 1: play with their food a little bit. They get the

290
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 1: defensive touchdown, which was a tremendous play by mcduffy to

291
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:36,560
Speaker 1: strip it, then the lateral. You know they're up twenty

292
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 1: one nothing at halftime. It's so weird. I texted a buddy.

293
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 1: When my team that I bet on is ahead, I

294
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 1: always feel like, damn it, the opponent's gonna come back.

295
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 1: But when my team that I bet on as a dog,

296
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,000
Speaker 1: I feel like, man, they're never gonna come back. They're

297
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 1: never gonna. It's just a weird vibe that I get,

298
00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: and I just knew Kansas City they did. It's weird

299
00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: to say this. They lack a knockout punch, right. They

300
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,440
Speaker 1: can't put teams to sleep with it. They can't choke

301
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 1: anybody out. I'm not talking about like the Chicago Bears

302
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,199
Speaker 1: when they smothered them. Like, yes, they were able to

303
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:15,920
Speaker 1: pull away a little bit from the Chargers. I don't

304
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: know the Chargers. Are they even a playoff team? I

305
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:19,200
Speaker 1: don't know. We'll find out how good they are tonight

306
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:23,199
Speaker 1: against the Jets. But like Kansas City's defense can really

307
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 1: slow teams down, but their offense is just it's just

308
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 1: not there. I mean, Miami kind of removed Travis Kelce

309
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,879
Speaker 1: from the game three catches fourteen yards, and Mahomes just said, okay,

310
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 1: I'll find seven different receivers or whatever it is. I mean,

311
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 1: they had five different guys catch passes on the opening

312
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,199
Speaker 1: drive and they scored a touchdown. Yet they ended with

313
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 1: just two hundred and sixty seven yards of offense four

314
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 1: point eight yards of play. A Mahomes fumble let Miami

315
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:50,639
Speaker 1: back in the game. You had the really really dumb

316
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:56,400
Speaker 1: penalty against Chris Jones unbelievably stupid. It was just a

317
00:17:56,440 --> 00:18:00,439
Speaker 1: weird game. But my overall takeaways number one, Yes, the

318
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 1: Chiefs are probably the best team in the league. But

319
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 1: unlike years past, they don't scare me with their offense.

320
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 1: Does that make any sense? Like usually it's like, oh,

321
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,160
Speaker 1: Mahomes and Andy Reid, they're just gonna dial up stuff

322
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 1: like I don't know, I don't like early on, You're like, Okay,

323
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,120
Speaker 1: the receivers are young, they'll get it. They haven't played

324
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 1: a lot, the kid Rice and sky Moore, and they'll

325
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 1: figure it out. And here we are halfway through the

326
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 1: season and they really haven't figured it out. They're just

327
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:30,640
Speaker 1: not dominant offensively. Even Pacheco kind of was slowed down.

328
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,080
Speaker 1: And you know, you bet on Mahomes, you're usually good,

329
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 1: especially in a spot where he's under a field goal favorite. Now,

330
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 1: a quick word on the Miami Dolphins, who I know

331
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:42,880
Speaker 1: everybody really really hates and things. Oh they're total frauds.

332
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,400
Speaker 1: All people are sending me all game. Oh, these guys

333
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:50,160
Speaker 1: are real contenders. Come on, Miami can't do anything. Miami.

334
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:52,879
Speaker 1: Excuse me. Miami hasn't beating anybody with a winning record.

335
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 1: These are all facts. Okay, Miami has faced three teams

336
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,720
Speaker 1: that came in with a winning record. They got killed

337
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,320
Speaker 1: by Buffalo back when Buffalo was at full strength and

338
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 1: really really good. And then they went and faced the

339
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 1: Eagles and they pretty much They didn't get totally blown

340
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:11,639
Speaker 1: out by the Eagles, but they got bullied and couldn't

341
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 1: handle it. Both those I should add, were on the road.

342
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,639
Speaker 1: This was a neutral site game, and wouldn't you know it,

343
00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 1: you know, Miami is live here at the end of

344
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 1: the game to have a chance to tie it up

345
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 1: or who knows, McDaniel's so crazy, maybe win the damn thing.

346
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 1: And then of course the snap from their starting center,

347
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,639
Speaker 1: it wasn't Eichenberg, it was it was Connor Williams who

348
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 1: had a snap just a rye of Tua and he

349
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 1: could not wrangle the ball. He has to fall on it. Now.

350
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,920
Speaker 1: A couple of plays before that, it looks like I

351
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,199
Speaker 1: don't know if it was a miscommunication with Waddle or what,

352
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,560
Speaker 1: but Waddle had his guy beat, but the pass was

353
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 1: as if it was like super short or maybe to

354
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:52,160
Speaker 1: a loss. I couldn't really tell. Tua had one completion

355
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,400
Speaker 1: over fifteen yards in the game and it was the touchdown.

356
00:19:55,840 --> 00:20:00,359
Speaker 1: Everything else kind of in the middle and short. A

357
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,400
Speaker 1: lot of stuff at or behind the line of scrimmage.

358
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,280
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill had a rough drop, he had the fumble.

359
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,399
Speaker 1: Not a great game from him. But overall, you know,

360
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:08,359
Speaker 1: if they'll still think Miami is one of the better

361
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:12,640
Speaker 1: teams in the league, if they're facing you know, two

362
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:14,640
Speaker 1: thirds of the league, they should wipe the floor with them.

363
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:16,399
Speaker 1: It's just when they have to go to that upper

364
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:20,440
Speaker 1: crust game and that opponent with that's a top tier

365
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 1: team that is tough on defense, as the Bills were

366
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 1: when they played, as the Eagles were when they played,

367
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 1: and as the Chiefs were Sunday, like, yeah, it's gonna

368
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 1: be a massive chore. So now Miami has the bye

369
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 1: week after Germany, they face would you know it, Las

370
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 1: Vegas not great? New York Jets will see it'll be

371
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:43,399
Speaker 1: in New York, could be bad weather, Washington, Tennessee Jets. Folks,

372
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:47,720
Speaker 1: you could hate on this team all you want and

373
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 1: think they're frauds. One, two, three, four or five. Their

374
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 1: next five games, they're gonna be favorite in all of them. Yes,

375
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 1: they will be favored against my Jets on the road.

376
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 1: And let's just give them four wins. I mean, who's

377
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,159
Speaker 1: beating him. I don't know if Tannehill's back, Will Levesing

378
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 1: beating him, Sam Howell, who had a hell of a game.

379
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 1: I don't know if we'll touch on it, but I'm

380
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 1: not worried about Washington and Vegas. Come on, come on now.

381
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,920
Speaker 1: So Miami's gonna be ten and four, probably heading into

382
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:18,400
Speaker 1: their home stretch at the end, which is brutal Dallas, Baltimore, Buffalo,

383
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,640
Speaker 1: and they could end up ten and seven. We'll see

384
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 1: a lot of football left to be played. But overall,

385
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 1: Chiefs did not look overwhelming, and Miami still has yet

386
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:33,359
Speaker 1: to prove they can, you know, fight in the top

387
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,600
Speaker 1: tier among best teams in the league. Now here's a

388
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,840
Speaker 1: team that does have a knockout punch, the Baltimore Ravens. Folks.

389
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 1: You'll remember early in the week lot this past week,

390
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,120
Speaker 1: I said, you gotta go Seattle. This is who's buying

391
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 1: Baltimore at the top of the market. And I was

392
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 1: against Seattle. I wasn't feeling Seattle. And then by the

393
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:50,119
Speaker 1: end of the week, I'm like, wait a minute, wait

394
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: a minute, wait a minute, Gino, I'm really back in

395
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:55,520
Speaker 1: Geno Smith on the road, and I had some interesting

396
00:21:55,600 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 1: numbers from the last time Seattle went east to play Cincinnati,

397
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:02,679
Speaker 1: and a lot of numbers lined up and they were

398
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 1: right there. And guess what, Gino Smith failed them. He

399
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:08,640
Speaker 1: was a colossal disaster when it mattered, and they blew

400
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,160
Speaker 1: the cover loss I think by I think they were

401
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 1: three point dogs, and they lost like seventeen thirteen or

402
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 1: so whatever the number was. They didn't cover by one.

403
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 1: And so ultimately it was a late change and I

404
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,199
Speaker 1: went Ravens in the contest. And now the Ravens have

405
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 1: faced in the last three weeks two NFC Division leaders.

406
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 1: Detroit smashed them thirty eight six, and now Seattle, which

407
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 1: was leading in the NFC West. I bet you didn't

408
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:33,919
Speaker 1: know that. Yes, they were ahead of San fran and

409
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 1: they smashed them thirty seven to three. Okay, this Baltimore

410
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 1: team is that's the kind of thing I'm looking for.

411
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 1: You know, we know Dallas when they punched down in Wait,

412
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 1: they're gonna they're gonna beat up on some people. We

413
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:50,119
Speaker 1: get that. I want to see Dallas and Miami do

414
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 1: what Baltimore did to a good team. That is how

415
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,920
Speaker 1: you get sold. Like you watch Baltimore four sacks, forced

416
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 1: two turnovers. They had five hundred and fifteen yards of offense.

417
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,920
Speaker 1: They held Seattle, which has a slew of good receivers,

418
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 1: a good running back, they held him to one hundred

419
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,480
Speaker 1: and fifty one yards. Seattle had six first downs in

420
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:12,959
Speaker 1: the game. Like that's a drive for some teams, Like

421
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,800
Speaker 1: this was. It was one of those games where you

422
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:17,919
Speaker 1: walk away and again, I like Seattle a lot. You

423
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:22,440
Speaker 1: walk away from this like, holy cal what is Genosmith's future?

424
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 1: He's what's holding the back? And again, what is the

425
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 1: quote water finds its level? Geno Smith was way above

426
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:33,639
Speaker 1: the rim last year. He was outstanding, the greatest season

427
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:35,879
Speaker 1: of his career, And all anybody wanted to know in

428
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 1: the offseason was that an outlier or is that the

429
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,840
Speaker 1: new Geno Smith? Well, you know you got ample history

430
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 1: on your side. That a season a one off for

431
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,240
Speaker 1: a guy who was a non factor for what the

432
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,880
Speaker 1: first seven years of his career, like he was anywhere

433
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 1: he was, he didn't do anything, and all of a sudden,

434
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 1: he has one awesome year. You're telling me that he's

435
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 1: going to continue that And the answer is very very

436
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: clearly no. Gino Smith has six interceptions in his last

437
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 1: four games, and at this point you wonder if you

438
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 1: can trust him in a big spot against a good team.

439
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:18,160
Speaker 1: Detroit is solid, they're uppercross team, but you know Genio

440
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:23,879
Speaker 1: delivered there. We're talking against Dallas San fran Eagles. Do

441
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,439
Speaker 1: you trust Gino Smith to get the win? So I

442
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 1: don't and they got destroyed thirty seven to three. Baltimore

443
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 1: really looking like a bit of a juggernaut. Now here's

444
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:38,920
Speaker 1: where it gets interesting for the Ravens. They have had

445
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:42,119
Speaker 1: some impressive wins over NFC teams. It should be noted

446
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 1: Lamar Smith. Hold on, sorry, not Lamar Smith, Lamar Jackson.

447
00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,639
Speaker 1: Let me get the exact number because I wrote it

448
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 1: down here. Lamar Jackson is now eighteen and one in

449
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,639
Speaker 1: his career against the NFC. Essentially, you know how this works.

450
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 1: Teams that don't see him multiple times a year are

451
00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 1: kind of in shock about what he can bring to

452
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,400
Speaker 1: the table. Here's the weird thing. This wasn't a Lamar game.

453
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:04,440
Speaker 1: I started him in Fantasy. He had like eleven points.

454
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,879
Speaker 1: He didn't really do anything. Lamar was not outstanding. This

455
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,120
Speaker 1: was the run game. And that's what it gets real

456
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 1: scary with Seattle folks, you're telling me someone named Keaton

457
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,480
Speaker 1: Mitchell can carry nine times for one hundred and thirty

458
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,240
Speaker 1: eight yards. I mean he has sixty yard carry, forty

459
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,399
Speaker 1: yard carry. They rush for almost three hundred yards against

460
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 1: a darn good Seattle team. The Seattle defense is good.

461
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 1: So Lamar Jackson one hundred eighty seven yards passing ten

462
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:33,359
Speaker 1: carries sixty yards shrug. He did have another fumble. I

463
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:35,399
Speaker 1: think he has nine fumbles on the season. He had

464
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,280
Speaker 1: actually two fumbles, lost one and the other one was fine.

465
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:42,200
Speaker 1: But it's scary you can win thirty seven to three

466
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 1: when your quarterback who was an MVP candidate coming into

467
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,879
Speaker 1: the game does nothing like twenty one of twenty six

468
00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:51,239
Speaker 1: is not nothing but one hundred eighty seven yards, and

469
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,840
Speaker 1: you're smashing a team like That's a little bit scary.

470
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 1: But again, this is what's interesting about Baltimore. They step

471
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:01,440
Speaker 1: out of conference and they whack a couple good teams.

472
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 1: They now host Cleveland in the rematch, and they won't

473
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 1: face dtr this time. It'll be Deshaun Watson. They face

474
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:14,159
Speaker 1: Cleveland next week. That will be a great game, should be.

475
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 1: Then they face Cincinnati, then they face the Chargers. So

476
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 1: three a real three game stretch where it's like, is

477
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 1: Baltimore like super Bowl worthy? I think they look at

478
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 1: something still feels off, like I want to see what

479
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 1: they do against a really good defense. And I know

480
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,920
Speaker 1: you'll say, Jay, come on, they already already destroyed Cleveland

481
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 1: twenty eighty three. Come on, that was dtr that was

482
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 1: earlier in the season. Let's just see how this game

483
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 1: against Cleveland goes. Cleveland's defense, by the way, continues to

484
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,359
Speaker 1: play at an obscene level. I know it was Clayton

485
00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 1: Looney tune that they shut down, but let's be realistic.

486
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 1: It will not be as easy this time around for Baltimore.

487
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 1: Then Baltimore has Cincinnati. Can we call them surging Cincinnati

488
00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:01,600
Speaker 1: in a rematch? Baltimore handling on the first one, And folks,

489
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 1: I hadn't really thought about this, but you know, of

490
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 1: all the teams in the AFC, we got Baltimore, Miami,

491
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:12,680
Speaker 1: KC Cincinnati. Like it's Baltimore getting the number one seed.

492
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,320
Speaker 1: I don't know, we'll see there right now, just to

493
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 1: they look like a machine. And I gotta give a

494
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:19,960
Speaker 1: shout out to their defensive coordinator McDonald. Boy, this guy's

495
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,480
Speaker 1: he has been lights out for the Ravens. I also listen,

496
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:25,160
Speaker 1: Rob G doesn't like when I bounced around the league

497
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:29,359
Speaker 1: too much. I just feel like I need to a

498
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 1: couple other topics before we get the best bet. So

499
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:34,120
Speaker 1: for number one, I have to I have to say

500
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 1: something about what I thought was one of the most

501
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 1: impressive performances that I can recall in the last few years.

502
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:44,280
Speaker 1: And that's what Josh Dobbs did for the Minnesota Vikings.

503
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 1: And I know you guys probably don't care about Josh

504
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,200
Speaker 1: Dobbs the Vikings. You know they got the win. They're

505
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,320
Speaker 1: not a playoff team. Kirk Cousins out for the season. No,

506
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:56,160
Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson, blah blah blah blah blah. So Josh Dobbs

507
00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 1: was traded to Minnesota this week. Okay, he was traded

508
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 1: there this week. According to reports from everything I read,

509
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:13,360
Speaker 1: he basically was the backup quarterback on Thursday at practice.

510
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 1: That's it. Backup. Did not take any first team snaps.

511
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 1: Took a grand total of zero snaps from the Vikings

512
00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:26,679
Speaker 1: starting center Gregarrett Bradbury took none. He just arrived with

513
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:30,959
Speaker 1: the team. He just was traded there. He's been playing

514
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,359
Speaker 1: around the league. This is his This is the third

515
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 1: team Josh Dobbs will have played for in this calendar

516
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 1: year twenty twenty three. Remember the playoff game essentially the

517
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 1: playoff game in Week eighteen for Tennessee against Jacksonville, where

518
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 1: he showed well and nearly won it. They ended up

519
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 1: losing to Jacksonville. Then there was he gets traded to

520
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 1: Arizona and he starts with them, and I don't care

521
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 1: that he went one in seven. They don't have a

522
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 1: lot of talent on that team. Okay, they end up

523
00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:58,560
Speaker 1: going one and seven, but he had to awesome win

524
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:00,680
Speaker 1: over Dallas as a huge underdog. So then he gets

525
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 1: traded to Minnesota. Okay, it reminded me of you know,

526
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 1: I was trying to think of an analogy. I don't

527
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:11,560
Speaker 1: know if this totally applies because it's not fully thought through.

528
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,360
Speaker 1: So you guys know, obviously I have a men's basketball

529
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 1: team we always love to talk about. So my buddy

530
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,160
Speaker 1: had a friend that he had played with and he

531
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 1: joined our team like last year. He's a really good

532
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,720
Speaker 1: basketball player. I mean, he played D three. He's a wing.

533
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:27,720
Speaker 1: He's just awesome player. He's younger, he's probably like thirty three,

534
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 1: but he's really freaking good. And one day in one

535
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 1: of our basketball games, like there was like a loose

536
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 1: ball and then the ref blue of the whistle. So

537
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 1: it was like kind of every day. Everybody stopped and

538
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 1: I see this guy. His name is Ryan. He uses

539
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:46,040
Speaker 1: his foot to like pull the soccer ball up like

540
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:47,960
Speaker 1: a pullback and flips it up and then brings his

541
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 1: foot around like a soccer move. Anybody who's played soccer

542
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:54,320
Speaker 1: knows what I'm talking about. And I was like, holy shit, Ryan,

543
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:57,000
Speaker 1: you play soccer. He's like, yeah, yeah, I played a

544
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,040
Speaker 1: lot growing up, but I gave it up to play basketball.

545
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 1: I was like, interesting, and I could just see from

546
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:06,960
Speaker 1: that one moment, I know he can play soccer. So my,

547
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 1: you know, the wheels are turning on my head. I

548
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,120
Speaker 1: plan a men's soccer team. I hit up our guys. Hey,

549
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,960
Speaker 1: I know this guy. I haven't seen him play soccer.

550
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,400
Speaker 1: He's good for our team. Just trust me on this.

551
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 1: It's it's like you throw someone you know that they

552
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:22,320
Speaker 1: can swim, and then you throw them in the deep

553
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 1: end and then they're like, oh, yeah, you know, I

554
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 1: did some Navy Seals training. So if you want to

555
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:28,800
Speaker 1: tie a cement brick to my foot and put me

556
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 1: in a straight jacket. I could probably figure it out,

557
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:32,960
Speaker 1: you know, no big deal. That's what I think of

558
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:37,520
Speaker 1: when Josh Dobbs enters the game for Minnesota. Okay, he

559
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 1: goes in safety, like, oh man, this guy look he

560
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 1: definitely looks shook. There's no chance Minnesota's a deep trouble

561
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 1: that the starter hall got knocked out. So then on

562
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 1: like the next series, Dobbs is scrambling for his life

563
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,280
Speaker 1: and left tackles out for Minnesota. Dobs are scrambling for

564
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 1: his life and he fumbles and the Falcons run it

565
00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,160
Speaker 1: back to the one yard line and you can look

566
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 1: it up online. I put it out there. I was like,

567
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 1: oh wow, this is about to get away from the Vikings.

568
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 1: Falcons touchdown here, probably ices it. I mean, Dobbs arrived

569
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 1: at the facility this week. Now we know, as we

570
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 1: talked about last week. Josh Dobbs literally and I had

571
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:18,400
Speaker 1: to look this up. The Minnesota Star Tribune called him

572
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:23,160
Speaker 1: a rocket scientist because he majored in aerospace engineering at

573
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 1: Tennessee got a four point zero. Famously, he spent a

574
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 1: month at NASA's Kennedy Space Center as an intern. We

575
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 1: talked about all this, right. He was a good quarterback

576
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:34,520
Speaker 1: at Tennessee with the Vals, made a bunch of big

577
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:38,240
Speaker 1: plays in bowl games, undefeated in bowl games. Smart is

578
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:42,960
Speaker 1: the keyword here, Okay, the Falcons, of course, because Arthur

579
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 1: Smith is a buffoon, and I'm not going to go

580
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:47,960
Speaker 1: in on him, but it's pretty clear. I think I've

581
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,800
Speaker 1: subtly hinted at this before. And this is not a

582
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:52,640
Speaker 1: shot to any of our listeners who were born wealthy.

583
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 1: But Arthur Smith was born on third base. Literally, I

584
00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:59,400
Speaker 1: mean his father is the founder of FedEx. You know

585
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 1: that guy's were fifty billion dollars. Okay, So Arthur Smith

586
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 1: answers to nobody. He knows everything, He's always right, you

587
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,400
Speaker 1: know that kind of guy. And that's not a shot.

588
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:11,640
Speaker 1: I know we have a high net worth income listener base.

589
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,280
Speaker 1: I'm not taking shots to anybody, but Arthur Smith coaches

590
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 1: like he was born on third base. So he doesn't

591
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:19,400
Speaker 1: answer to anyone. Well except when you get that ball

592
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 1: after the Dobs fumble, it's what is it fourth? Yeah,

593
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,160
Speaker 1: it's for first and goal from the one. And I

594
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 1: had to write down the series of plays here, okay,

595
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,960
Speaker 1: just to put to go up fifteen to three okay

596
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 1: because it was eight three. After the safety, they go

597
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:38,440
Speaker 1: false start and then they get it back up first

598
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 1: and goal from the six. They get to quickly get

599
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 1: the five yards by second goal from the one. Arthur

600
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 1: Smith calls an end around to tight end John ohu

601
00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:47,760
Speaker 1: Smith end around from the one you just drafted b

602
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:50,560
Speaker 1: John Robinson in the top ten. No game for John

603
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:52,800
Speaker 1: Whu Smith. Then they go to Tyler Algier their thumper

604
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 1: minus four yards b John Robinson not on the field,

605
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:58,440
Speaker 1: and they settle for a field goal twenty five yard

606
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 1: are from young Waykup because you know, when you take

607
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:01,760
Speaker 1: over at the first and goal at to one, it's

608
00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:03,520
Speaker 1: cool to settle for like a twenty three yard twenty

609
00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 1: five yard field goal. And at that right there, I

610
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 1: was like, man, that's how you lose games. Well, what

611
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,440
Speaker 1: do you think happened? On the very next series, smart

612
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:16,240
Speaker 1: guy Josh Dobbs delivers converse three huge thirds downs, including

613
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 1: one with his legs, and it gets that touchdown and boom,

614
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 1: it's game on and Josh Dobbs ends up coming back

615
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,520
Speaker 1: for the victory. One of those performances that you're like,

616
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:30,080
Speaker 1: this guy's amazing, and it's it's incredible, like he just

617
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:33,480
Speaker 1: showed up, doesn't know all of his teammates' names. There's

618
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:36,120
Speaker 1: a report, it's not really a report, I guess whatever.

619
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:40,640
Speaker 1: These these reporters are hearing that Josh Dobbs didn't fully

620
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:44,520
Speaker 1: know the playbook. So in between plays, you know, the

621
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 1: play clock starts and they could talk to the players

622
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:48,240
Speaker 1: and the help, the quarterback and the helmet and they're

623
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 1: essentially telling Dobbs what the plays are and what the

624
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,360
Speaker 1: routes are and where guys are gonna be. And Dobbs,

625
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:58,080
Speaker 1: because he's smart four point zero grade point average, he

626
00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 1: can quickly process and boom he's able to deliver. And

627
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,959
Speaker 1: what a comeback, game winning drive for the touchdown. Like

628
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:07,960
Speaker 1: I'm just telling you guys, like Josh Dobbs is an

629
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:11,759
Speaker 1: awesome story. I think he had sixty yards rushing just

630
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:14,319
Speaker 1: like that is the stuff dreams are made of. You know,

631
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:18,480
Speaker 1: my assistant, I'm the assistant coach of a girl soccer team,

632
00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:20,880
Speaker 1: and you know, we had our best performance of the season.

633
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:23,239
Speaker 1: It felt like everything we worked on in practice all

634
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:26,759
Speaker 1: season they did it. The defense listened and shut out

635
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:28,560
Speaker 1: there the leading scorer on the other team, who's oh

636
00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:31,319
Speaker 1: was an all star player. She did nothing. And yeah,

637
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 1: I'm not being rude, like she was crying at halftime

638
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 1: because we had totally shut her down, like she was upset. Understandable. Listen,

639
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:40,839
Speaker 1: we played great defense, we knew we knew the game

640
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 1: plan on offense. One girl had a hat trick. Like

641
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:47,720
Speaker 1: every play, every strategy we worked through all season. Boom,

642
00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 1: we delivered. And it's just you. You just say that

643
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 1: and you watch everybody understand their roles and you're like,

644
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:56,520
Speaker 1: this is so awesome. This feels great. And I kind

645
00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:58,800
Speaker 1: of feel the same way about this Josh top story. Honestly,

646
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 1: it was really fun to watch it. Now, I'm the

647
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:05,040
Speaker 1: idiot who liked Atlanta. I bet Atlanta. I had Atlanta

648
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:06,880
Speaker 1: in the pick and pool. Pick a pool was awesome

649
00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:09,919
Speaker 1: last week. I cashed a little bit. Did not cast

650
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:11,799
Speaker 1: this week. Let's just say that it did not go well.

651
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:14,720
Speaker 1: I think I lost some ground on the leader. That's okay,

652
00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:18,600
Speaker 1: it's fine, plenty of time left. Anyways. Josh Dobbs, listen,

653
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:20,440
Speaker 1: you need to become a fan. I don't care that

654
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:22,600
Speaker 1: he was one in seven in Arizona. It doesn't matter.

655
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:25,759
Speaker 1: Quarterback wins is that's a silly stat we've been over

656
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:29,120
Speaker 1: this all right. Now for a positive quarterback story, let's

657
00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:30,720
Speaker 1: just do a couple of minutes of c J. Stroud

658
00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,680
Speaker 1: and yes, I will weave in Bryce Young. So I

659
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 1: remember New Year's Eve. I'm at a friend's house, and

660
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:41,359
Speaker 1: of course he doesn't have cable TV. So I've got

661
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 1: to chary to Jerry rig It so that I can

662
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 1: watch Georgia versus Ohio State in the National Conference in

663
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:54,920
Speaker 1: the National semi final game. And you know, George's incredible, undefeated.

664
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:58,800
Speaker 1: The defense is impenetrable. And here we go with CJ. Stroud,

665
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:03,200
Speaker 1: who struggled against Michigan, and CJ. Stroud hadn't really faced

666
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:08,640
Speaker 1: any amazing defenses, and what does he do against awesome Georgia.

667
00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:13,600
Speaker 1: He is unstoppable. And it reminded me of when Justin Herbert,

668
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:15,920
Speaker 1: who again he was not the best quarterback in the

669
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,880
Speaker 1: world at Oregon. He was running like some basic schemes.

670
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:22,799
Speaker 1: You know, the coach is very conservative, nothing aggressive, and

671
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:24,960
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you see the Rose Bowl and

672
00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:27,359
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert's like winning with his legs and he's doing

673
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 1: some stuff. WHOA, what do we have here? Like you

674
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,239
Speaker 1: knew he was really good, but that was when it

675
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:33,920
Speaker 1: was like, oh my gosh. And that's one of the

676
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 1: problems a sidebar here with the NFL mock drafts and stuff.

677
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:41,759
Speaker 1: You've got to not judge quarterbacks on the system they

678
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 1: were in. And this was a huge miss for me.

679
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:48,839
Speaker 1: With Patrick Mahomes in college, he played for like Texas Tech,

680
00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 1: like Arena League Defenses, Chuck and Duck. Nothing. It didn't

681
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:56,880
Speaker 1: feel like smart football. There's a reason that there's like

682
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 1: no quarterbacks from the Big twelve have really done anything

683
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:01,480
Speaker 1: in the lead because you don't have to process. It's

684
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:04,560
Speaker 1: a one read league. There's no defense there. And I

685
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:07,320
Speaker 1: dropped the ball. I did not think Patrick Mahomes is

686
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 1: gonna be amazing. I didn't think that. Well, clearly other

687
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:12,759
Speaker 1: NFL gms didn't. He was the Chiefs traded up to

688
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:16,520
Speaker 1: get him at ten. Anyways, So Stroud in that game

689
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 1: against Georgia is lights out. He is running, he is

690
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 1: throwing darts, Harrison is dominating the game. And then Harrison

691
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 1: gets a concussion in the end zone, leaves the game,

692
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:27,880
Speaker 1: and Stroud's like, you know, and they still had a

693
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:32,759
Speaker 1: really good talent obviously, but Stroud was unable to get

694
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:34,920
Speaker 1: the dub. But it was like, WHOA, And I remember

695
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,640
Speaker 1: and I put it out there, Stroud's got to be

696
00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:40,719
Speaker 1: the top pick, right, you have to it has to be.

697
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,399
Speaker 1: And of course then throughout the process it's all Bryce

698
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:46,719
Speaker 1: Young's going one. Bryce Young's going one, somebody's trading up

699
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 1: from it, and I don't know, never the biggest Bryce

700
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 1: Young guy. I like Stroud over Young. I didn't think

701
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 1: either should go number one, but I thought Stroud was

702
00:37:56,520 --> 00:38:00,360
Speaker 1: a better quarterback. And sometimes you end up getting sucked

703
00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:03,520
Speaker 1: into narratives, just as you do gambling week to week.

704
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:08,040
Speaker 1: And I ended up thinking, like, Okay, you know, Houston's

705
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,759
Speaker 1: taken Stroud, but I don't know is he gonna win? There?

706
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:12,760
Speaker 1: They coin they're probably gonna end up taking another quarterback.

707
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:18,200
Speaker 1: Like again, Houston had nothing c J. Stroud so far

708
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:23,040
Speaker 1: this season fourteen touchdowns, one interception. In what I believe

709
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 1: is one of the crazier stats that I saw yesterday,

710
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 1: c J Stroud in eight games has fourteen touchdowns. Kenny

711
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:33,839
Speaker 1: Pickett has thirteen touchdown passes in twenty one games. That's right.

712
00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 1: C J. Stroud, the rookie, has now more career touchdown

713
00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 1: passes than Kenny Pickett of the Steelers. And you know

714
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:43,400
Speaker 1: this is a c. J. Stroud who comes in with

715
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:48,319
Speaker 1: Nico Collins and Tank Dell who nobody had heard of.

716
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:51,200
Speaker 1: They went and got Dalton Schulten free agency was good.

717
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 1: They're starting running back. Pierce was out. They had no

718
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 1: run game at all yesterday. I'm an idiot who picked

719
00:38:56,160 --> 00:39:00,000
Speaker 1: up Singletary in fantasy, thinking, oh, Singletary b the guy,

720
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,080
Speaker 1: I'll get the carries you like? Did nothing. I mean,

721
00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:04,319
Speaker 1: I had like ten points, but that's not that's not

722
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:07,280
Speaker 1: winning me any games. They had no run game. Stroud

723
00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:11,520
Speaker 1: trailing for most of the game, and he has, you know,

724
00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:14,879
Speaker 1: really one of the great performances any rookie has had

725
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,520
Speaker 1: in a regular season game in NFL history. Four hundred

726
00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:23,640
Speaker 1: and seventy yards passing record, five touchdown passes that ties

727
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:27,960
Speaker 1: the rookie record, no interceptions. Three Texans had over one

728
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,680
Speaker 1: hundred yards receiving. Dalton Schultz, Tank Dell, who I do have.

729
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,040
Speaker 1: He was on my bench in fantasy. And oh, by

730
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:36,840
Speaker 1: the way, how's this for the cherry on top? CJ.

731
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 1: Stroud lost his kicker to an injury, so they had

732
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:44,640
Speaker 1: a backup running back, handling kickoffs and extra points and

733
00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 1: field goals. So now it's like fourth down, we gotta

734
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,920
Speaker 1: go here. We can't risk kicking. At one point there

735
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:53,799
Speaker 1: was a penalty pushback, so they're like, we got a kick.

736
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:56,200
Speaker 1: It was fourth and a long one, and the backup

737
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:58,880
Speaker 1: running back made a twenty nine yard field goal, the

738
00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:01,320
Speaker 1: first running back to make a few goal in over

739
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 1: forty years. And folks, if you miss the performance, Stroud

740
00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:10,120
Speaker 1: looks poised, confident, slinging it back there in the pocket,

741
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:13,160
Speaker 1: just one of those Holy cow, this dude looks like

742
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:16,520
Speaker 1: a keeper. C J. Stroud was just balling out. And

743
00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 1: here's the weird thing. Now you look at the standings,

744
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 1: and again, I think we all agree Jacksonville Foreshore is

745
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:27,479
Speaker 1: the best team in that division. But they did get

746
00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:30,440
Speaker 1: housed at home by c J. Stroud on the Texans.

747
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:32,839
Speaker 1: And I'll remember that because you know that was when

748
00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:37,840
Speaker 1: I lost my survivor pick at four and four. Houston

749
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:41,440
Speaker 1: is not dead, folks, They're not totally done. Can they

750
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:45,360
Speaker 1: catch Jastonville? I don't know. Wild card seems unlikely, but CJ.

751
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:49,880
Speaker 1: Stroud gives that team confidence. I mean, he now has wins.

752
00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,440
Speaker 1: He's beaten Jacksonville, he's beaten the Saints, who supposedly have

753
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:55,879
Speaker 1: a good defense. He's beaten Tampa and their other win

754
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,839
Speaker 1: was against Pittsburgh, which that was a big win. Okay, down,

755
00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:04,200
Speaker 1: he will step up in class against the Bengals next week. Now,

756
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:08,640
Speaker 1: the good news is on the surface, it's possible the

757
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:14,000
Speaker 1: Bengals overlook the Texans. Remember Bengals had the big game

758
00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:16,319
Speaker 1: last night against the Bills, and then after that they

759
00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:17,960
Speaker 1: got the Ravens, which will be for first place in

760
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:22,280
Speaker 1: the division. So there is a world where Cincinnati maybe

761
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:24,920
Speaker 1: has a bit of a letdown against the Texans. But

762
00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:28,279
Speaker 1: see J. Stroud. They got a game against Arizona, they

763
00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 1: got Denver, two games left against Tennessee. Who the hell

764
00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 1: knows who quarterback in Tennessee. So no, Houston may mess

765
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:38,040
Speaker 1: around here and win eight or nine games and be

766
00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:41,520
Speaker 1: a very interesting team in late December, which is not

767
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:46,480
Speaker 1: something anybody had on their bingo card this NFL offseason. Now,

768
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:50,959
Speaker 1: let's dovetail from the number two pick to the number

769
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:55,480
Speaker 1: one pick, and that would be Bryce Young, who I

770
00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:58,799
Speaker 1: genuinely feel bad for. Guys. I don't know if that's

771
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,239
Speaker 1: gonna be a popular sentiment or or not, but just

772
00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:05,960
Speaker 1: watching him, Like again, contrast CJ. Stroud four hundred and

773
00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:09,359
Speaker 1: seventy yards, five touchdowns, and he played in the early

774
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:11,239
Speaker 1: window and then in a late window. It's like, oh,

775
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:16,920
Speaker 1: here's Bryce Young dinking and dunking for thirty five passing

776
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:21,279
Speaker 1: yards in the first half. Here's Bryce Young. Oh that's

777
00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:25,520
Speaker 1: a pick six and another pick six. He threw two

778
00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:29,440
Speaker 1: pick sixes to Kenny Moore. And I did have the

779
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 1: uh Texans, I'm sorry, not the Texans. I had the

780
00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 1: Panthers and a teaser, and that one really stung. It

781
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:38,719
Speaker 1: was to complete a fourteen teaser. The other three cash

782
00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:40,920
Speaker 1: and of course you know Bryce Young, he ended up

783
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:44,279
Speaker 1: throwing three interceptions. And he listen. I said this the

784
00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:46,200
Speaker 1: whole time. He is too small to play quarterback in

785
00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:48,680
Speaker 1: the NFL. I don't see the confidence in the pocket.

786
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:51,200
Speaker 1: I know all everybody's gonna talk, well, they don't have

787
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:55,480
Speaker 1: any weapons, Like let's just stop, Like if if you

788
00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,279
Speaker 1: if you don't have weapons, you can still succeed. I mean, hell,

789
00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:03,200
Speaker 1: look at seats shroud. He's slinging it. And this is

790
00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:05,920
Speaker 1: the this is the sad thing. So the new offensive

791
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:09,120
Speaker 1: coordinator takes over, there's all this excitement and they get

792
00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:12,320
Speaker 1: to win last week and then this week, it doesn't

793
00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:14,359
Speaker 1: look as good. But here's where it looks really bad.

794
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:18,640
Speaker 1: Once you do a deeper die Thomas Brown two games

795
00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:23,520
Speaker 1: and you have two touchdowns, Like that's it. Where's the dynamic?

796
00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:26,919
Speaker 1: I mean, they're not really doing anything. You even watched

797
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:29,480
Speaker 1: Aidan O'Connell with the Raiders yesterday. Now, I know he's

798
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:31,640
Speaker 1: got Davonte Adams out there, and he's got Josh Jacob

799
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:36,799
Speaker 1: which is significant talent, but like I kind of feel

800
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:38,560
Speaker 1: bad for Brycetal. I don't want to say he's set

801
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:41,520
Speaker 1: up to fail. And remember we've seen star quarterback struggle before.

802
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:45,359
Speaker 1: Troy Aikman was an abomination. Peyton Manning his first year

803
00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:49,080
Speaker 1: was really horrific. Eli Manning was geezed, a total train

804
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:52,040
Speaker 1: wreck in New York. Like, yes, you can rebound from

805
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 1: one season. The thing is, I'm not even seeing glimpses

806
00:43:56,600 --> 00:44:01,560
Speaker 1: of it from Bryce Young, Like nothing is really bad.

807
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:04,680
Speaker 1: And the worst part is the other guy, c J.

808
00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:08,640
Speaker 1: Stroud is crushing and that it's gonna be tough, like

809
00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:11,719
Speaker 1: he's gonna be compared to him as long as he's

810
00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:14,239
Speaker 1: still the starting quarterback. Now they don't have a first

811
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:17,400
Speaker 1: round pick next year. I saw Brian Burns got a concussion.

812
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:19,200
Speaker 1: They could have traded him, like they could have done

813
00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:21,840
Speaker 1: some stuff at the deadline. The offensive line is really weak.

814
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:25,879
Speaker 1: I'll just put this out there now. I feel kind

815
00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:28,200
Speaker 1: of sort of bad for Bryce Young. He's not an

816
00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:31,400
Speaker 1: enviable spot. I'm sure he can turn around. He's got

817
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:35,080
Speaker 1: a lot of talent. But it's halfway through the season.

818
00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:38,319
Speaker 1: It does not look good. Something magical happens when the

819
00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:41,760
Speaker 1: third quarter ends and the fourth quarter begins. The energy changes.

820
00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:44,520
Speaker 1: The fourth quarter is where games are won, where champions

821
00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:48,120

Speaker 1: Here's your best bet. All right, let's wrap up what

860
00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:07,120
Speaker 1: it was. A lengthy Monday NFL podcast with the best

861
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:14,520
Speaker 1: bet Jets Chargers. It was three and a half. Let

862
00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:17,920
Speaker 1: me check what I'm seeing here. It looked like, yeah,

863
00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:21,720
Speaker 1: it did come down to three in some places. Listen.

864
00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:24,920
Speaker 1: A lot of people like the Chargers. Yeah, you can

865
00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:28,480
Speaker 1: get a juice three. The Jets offensive line has a

866
00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:31,440
Speaker 1: lot of questions. Looks like there could be three or

867
00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 1: four backups for the Jets. I did see one piece

868
00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:37,360
Speaker 1: of news didn't get as much coverage. Josh Palmer, the

869
00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:40,120
Speaker 1: talented number, the new number two. He was the number

870
00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:43,160
Speaker 1: three before Mike Williams went down receiver for the Chargers

871
00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:46,160
Speaker 1: injured on ir Now, I happen to watch a lot

872
00:47:46,160 --> 00:47:47,959
Speaker 1: of Chargers out here. Went to the game a couple

873
00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:50,920
Speaker 1: of weeks ago against the Bears. They don't have a

874
00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:53,680
Speaker 1: lot of talent on the outside. It's essentially Keenan Allen,

875
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:56,959
Speaker 1: two rookies and this kid from Stanford who's a fifth rounder,

876
00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:59,640
Speaker 1: who can't you know, he's a solid possession receiver, but

877
00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:03,319
Speaker 1: you know, he was like probably fifth or sixth on

878
00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:05,040
Speaker 1: their depth chart ating in the season, and now he's

879
00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:10,560
Speaker 1: probably gonna be like third or fourth. There's a scenario

880
00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:15,400
Speaker 1: where Sauce Gardner says, you know what, I don't usually follow,

881
00:48:16,360 --> 00:48:21,120
Speaker 1: but I'm going to in this scenario follow Keenan Allen

882
00:48:21,480 --> 00:48:24,279
Speaker 1: and we're gonna just say, go ahead, beat us somewhere else,

883
00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:26,719
Speaker 1: or you say, you know what, he's just gonna stay

884
00:48:26,719 --> 00:48:29,839
Speaker 1: on one side of the field. We're gonna say, we're

885
00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:31,439
Speaker 1: gonna you're gonna have to throw it to the other side.

886
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:34,240
Speaker 1: This side is a no fly zone. So the Jets defense,

887
00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:39,160
Speaker 1: which has rattled Hurts, it rattled Allen for four interceptions,

888
00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:42,439
Speaker 1: and it you know, slowed down Mahomes for the final

889
00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:45,560
Speaker 1: two quarters two and a half quarters. What can they

890
00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:48,680
Speaker 1: do to get under the skin of Justin Herbert At

891
00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:51,439
Speaker 1: the same time, I you know, is Zach Wilson gonna

892
00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:53,400
Speaker 1: be upright long enough to do any damage? Here's the

893
00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:57,200
Speaker 1: good news. Bryce Hall is in line for a monster game.

894
00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:00,840
Speaker 1: I haven't seen prop numbers for him ushing and receiving,

895
00:49:01,320 --> 00:49:04,000
Speaker 1: but the line I mean, I like Kenneth Mrie as

896
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:06,320
Speaker 1: a linebacker, but he's not gonna do well in coverage

897
00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:09,879
Speaker 1: against Breeze Hall the safeties. You know, Derwin James loved

898
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:13,600
Speaker 1: to be in the box. I just I don't know

899
00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:18,600
Speaker 1: about this. This Chargers defense matching up against the Jets weapons. Now,

900
00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:20,520
Speaker 1: if Carol Wilson on the outside should have a lot

901
00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:23,440
Speaker 1: of success, the question is can Zach Wilson make throws? Like?

902
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:25,279
Speaker 1: That's what it really comes down to, will you have time?

903
00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:29,120
Speaker 1: I'll also add it looks like no Corey Linsley again

904
00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:32,600
Speaker 1: for the Chargers. Quinn Williams up the middle is a

905
00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:35,520
Speaker 1: big one. He should be able to be disruptive in

906
00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:37,880
Speaker 1: the run game. I like the Jets linebackers against Eckler.

907
00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:42,600
Speaker 1: It won't be popular, but I think the under under

908
00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:44,200
Speaker 1: in the Jets would be by play. I'll probably end

909
00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:48,600
Speaker 1: up teasing it because you can. Yeah, you could tease

910
00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:52,040
Speaker 1: the Jets up to what nine and a half six

911
00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:54,480
Speaker 1: point teaser and then you tease it under forty five. Like,

912
00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:56,799
Speaker 1: I don't know, how are the Jets getting I mean,

913
00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:00,319
Speaker 1: any any big game this season? The Jets have not

914
00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:02,399
Speaker 1: really been able to score. There was the Denver game,

915
00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:04,520
Speaker 1: but come on, nobody really thinks that was that big

916
00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:07,440
Speaker 1: of a game. So the Jets score twenty two against Buffalo,

917
00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:12,240
Speaker 1: the walk off punt return in overtime, ten against Dallas,

918
00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:17,400
Speaker 1: ten against New England, twenty against Case. They scored twenty

919
00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:23,600
Speaker 1: against the Eagles, thirteen against the Giants. Again. I just

920
00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:26,319
Speaker 1: I don't see where the Jets are scoring, like into

921
00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:30,879
Speaker 1: the twenties. You know, if you give me a twenty

922
00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:33,600
Speaker 1: one to seventeen, Jets win the under and Jets hits.

923
00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:37,880
Speaker 1: I think the Jets can win this, and folks, the

924
00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:41,120
Speaker 1: New York Jets could wake up Tuesday morning in the

925
00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:44,440
Speaker 1: mix for a wildcard spot, like in the mix with

926
00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:46,000
Speaker 1: a win here. It's a big one. I will be

927
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:50,040
Speaker 1: watching closely and we'll talk to you tomorrow
