But Kyle, you 10 00:00:44,908 --> 00:00:48,308 Speaker 3: chose you intentionally pulled that jersey out of your closet. 11 00:00:48,428 --> 00:00:50,348 Speaker 1: Listen, We've been talking about Michael Parsons all week. Is 12 00:00:50,348 --> 00:00:51,868 Speaker 1: maybe the best defensive player in the league. 13 00:00:52,028 --> 00:00:52,828 Speaker 2: TJ's good. 14 00:00:53,268 --> 00:00:55,388 Speaker 1: DJ had a night of Steelers defense, had a night, 15 00:00:55,508 --> 00:00:57,788 Speaker 1: a lot to talk about all evening. It was a 16 00:00:57,828 --> 00:01:01,988 Speaker 1: wild Monday night of football. TJ Wytt, Hey, guys, the Steelers. 17 00:01:01,628 --> 00:01:04,068 Speaker 2: The Harry carried him too. 18 00:01:04,508 --> 00:01:07,828 Speaker 1: Defensive touchdowns twenty six, twenty two. What do we say, 19 00:01:07,868 --> 00:01:10,188 Speaker 1: stack wins? They now each have won the Amston North 20 00:01:10,308 --> 00:01:13,908 Speaker 1: is fascinating. But let's hear from the Steelers all time 21 00:01:14,068 --> 00:01:15,508 Speaker 1: sack leader TJ. 22 00:01:15,748 --> 00:01:18,388 Speaker 2: Watts. After that performance from the steel curtain. 23 00:01:20,228 --> 00:01:22,668 Speaker 4: When your backs against the wall man, you have two options, 24 00:01:22,708 --> 00:01:24,948 Speaker 4: and we just really want we want to be a 25 00:01:24,988 --> 00:01:27,028 Speaker 4: team that fights back, especially as a defense. We want 26 00:01:27,068 --> 00:01:29,868 Speaker 4: to be a defense that determines outcomes of games. And 27 00:01:30,788 --> 00:01:32,348 Speaker 4: the only thing we can control is what happens when 28 00:01:32,388 --> 00:01:33,948 Speaker 4: we get out there in the field, and there's gonna 29 00:01:33,948 --> 00:01:36,108 Speaker 4: be so much more that we can improve on. But 30 00:01:36,348 --> 00:01:38,348 Speaker 4: I'm very glad with the splash that we had tonight, 31 00:01:38,988 --> 00:01:40,468 Speaker 4: but there's gonna be a lot of stuff to correct 32 00:01:40,508 --> 00:01:40,788 Speaker 4: as well. 33 00:01:42,828 --> 00:01:45,268 Speaker 3: Steelers were able to close that one out late as 34 00:01:45,268 --> 00:01:47,708 Speaker 3: they beat the Browns. Huge divisional win for them, But 35 00:01:47,748 --> 00:01:49,628 Speaker 3: the heartbreak for the Browns coming out of that one 36 00:01:49,668 --> 00:01:51,468 Speaker 3: not only is the loss, but also the fact that 37 00:01:51,468 --> 00:01:54,188 Speaker 3: they have lost Nick Chubb for the remainder of the season. 38 00:01:54,188 --> 00:01:55,228 Speaker 3: What is the latest this morning? 39 00:01:55,228 --> 00:01:58,308 Speaker 5: In the Browns running back Tom Well Jamie Kevin Stefanski 40 00:01:58,428 --> 00:02:01,188 Speaker 5: confirmed the obvious after the game that he expects that 41 00:02:01,268 --> 00:02:02,908 Speaker 5: Nick Chubb is going to miss the rest of the 42 00:02:02,908 --> 00:02:05,988 Speaker 5: twenty twenty three season. Not a surprise to anyone who 43 00:02:06,028 --> 00:02:08,868 Speaker 5: saw the play. Even if you avoided all the various 44 00:02:08,948 --> 00:02:11,708 Speaker 5: replay angles that are circulating on the internet, I can 45 00:02:11,788 --> 00:02:13,828 Speaker 5: tell you I was getting texts last night from people 46 00:02:13,828 --> 00:02:17,748 Speaker 5: with other NFL teams comparing that injury for Nick Chubb 47 00:02:17,788 --> 00:02:20,308 Speaker 5: to some of the worst that we've ever seen in football, 48 00:02:20,388 --> 00:02:23,788 Speaker 5: things like Willis McGahee and his injury back at Miami 49 00:02:23,868 --> 00:02:27,548 Speaker 5: in two thousand and one. Chubb himself had a knee 50 00:02:27,548 --> 00:02:30,508 Speaker 5: dislocation and three ligament tears in that same left knee 51 00:02:30,508 --> 00:02:32,708 Speaker 5: at Georgia back in twenty fifteen. 52 00:02:33,108 --> 00:02:35,668 Speaker 6: The question now is the extent of the damage. 53 00:02:35,668 --> 00:02:38,708 Speaker 5: He'll undergo further testing today and that'll help dictate what 54 00:02:38,748 --> 00:02:40,628 Speaker 5: the road to recovery looks. 55 00:02:40,388 --> 00:02:42,788 Speaker 6: Like for him to get back even in twenty twenty four. 56 00:02:43,028 --> 00:02:45,868 Speaker 5: So for the Browns, they now have to move forward 57 00:02:45,948 --> 00:02:47,828 Speaker 5: here and decide whether they can move forward with the 58 00:02:47,828 --> 00:02:50,948 Speaker 5: same backfield. Jerome Ford had over one hundred yards last night. 59 00:02:50,988 --> 00:02:54,148 Speaker 5: Pierre Strong scored a touchdown. One of their former running backs, 60 00:02:54,228 --> 00:02:56,988 Speaker 5: Kareem Hunt, is currently available. Certainly there could be trade 61 00:02:56,988 --> 00:02:59,948 Speaker 5: possibilities as well. All that remains to be seen, and 62 00:02:59,948 --> 00:03:02,908 Speaker 5: they got to sort it out now on a short week. Meanwhile, 63 00:03:02,948 --> 00:03:07,628 Speaker 5: the Steelers also had a potentially concerning injury last night. 64 00:03:07,668 --> 00:03:11,028 Speaker 5: Mika Fitzpatrick, who was involved in that collision with Nick Chubb. 65 00:03:11,108 --> 00:03:13,828 Speaker 5: Later on in the game, ruled out because of a 66 00:03:13,988 --> 00:03:17,028 Speaker 5: chest injury. Mike Comlin said that Fitzpatrick was taken to 67 00:03:17,068 --> 00:03:20,588 Speaker 5: a local hospital for evaluation, so we will continue to 68 00:03:20,628 --> 00:03:21,828 Speaker 5: monitor that as well. 69 00:03:21,908 --> 00:03:22,348 Speaker 6: Jamie. 70 00:03:22,588 --> 00:03:23,628 Speaker 2: That is interesting. Tom. 71 00:03:24,108 --> 00:03:25,788 Speaker 3: We'll talk to you later and we'll hear more about 72 00:03:25,788 --> 00:03:28,388 Speaker 3: that as minkaes evaluated this morning. And again, just a 73 00:03:28,428 --> 00:03:30,748 Speaker 3: heartbreak for Nick Chubb and the Browns as they move forward. 74 00:03:30,908 --> 00:03:33,068 Speaker 3: The Steelers, though, as we mentioned, they beat them last night. 75 00:03:33,108 --> 00:03:34,868 Speaker 3: They come on with a win on Monday Night football. 76 00:03:34,988 --> 00:03:37,108 Speaker 3: It was doubleheader. We'll talk about the other game later 77 00:03:37,148 --> 00:03:39,308 Speaker 3: in the show. What'd you think though of this AFC 78 00:03:39,348 --> 00:03:40,388 Speaker 3: North matchup last night? 79 00:03:40,428 --> 00:03:44,548 Speaker 7: Peter brutal game, brutal game, brutal to Seachub go down, 80 00:03:44,588 --> 00:03:47,948 Speaker 7: brutal from an offensive standpoint, Brutal on the officiating at 81 00:03:47,948 --> 00:03:49,548 Speaker 7: the end, where you're like, wait a second, there's a 82 00:03:49,588 --> 00:03:52,748 Speaker 7: no call on that, and yet I. 83 00:03:52,708 --> 00:03:53,388 Speaker 2: Come away with it. 84 00:03:53,468 --> 00:03:55,188 Speaker 7: And I want to talk about two names, and that's 85 00:03:55,268 --> 00:03:56,508 Speaker 7: high Smith and Watt. 86 00:03:56,588 --> 00:03:58,108 Speaker 2: Those guys were the stars of the evening. 87 00:03:58,108 --> 00:04:00,428 Speaker 7: We came into this thing thing Miles Garrett and is 88 00:04:00,508 --> 00:04:01,148 Speaker 7: Daria Smith? 89 00:04:01,148 --> 00:04:03,188 Speaker 2: How is that a duo? These guys blow them off 90 00:04:03,188 --> 00:04:06,068 Speaker 2: the field. What you know and what is awesome. 91 00:04:06,188 --> 00:04:09,508 Speaker 7: I think when Alex high Smith got his huge new 92 00:04:09,588 --> 00:04:14,588 Speaker 7: contract a few months back, everyone was like really and 93 00:04:14,708 --> 00:04:16,508 Speaker 7: not surprised that he got what he got, but that 94 00:04:16,708 --> 00:04:19,548 Speaker 7: he's already in that conversation he felt like an ascending player. 95 00:04:19,948 --> 00:04:22,388 Speaker 2: Guess what the Steelers, you pay. 96 00:04:22,228 --> 00:04:23,748 Speaker 7: For what the guy is gonna be. You don't pay 97 00:04:23,788 --> 00:04:26,748 Speaker 7: for the guy for This is the future you've got now, 98 00:04:26,788 --> 00:04:31,308 Speaker 7: too young, tremendous. High Smith's incredible last night. He had 99 00:04:31,348 --> 00:04:34,988 Speaker 7: five tackles, a sack, a force fumble, an interception, and 100 00:04:35,028 --> 00:04:37,628 Speaker 7: the opening touchdown of the game. And after the game, 101 00:04:37,668 --> 00:04:40,228 Speaker 7: when you know Lisa Salters is talking to TJ. Watt, 102 00:04:40,228 --> 00:04:41,388 Speaker 7: it says, well, first of all, first of all, before 103 00:04:41,428 --> 00:04:42,948 Speaker 7: you even talk to me, I want to bring over 104 00:04:42,988 --> 00:04:45,788 Speaker 7: this guy. And he brings over Alex Hysman and he's like, 105 00:04:45,948 --> 00:04:47,348 Speaker 7: this is the guy you got to be talking to. 106 00:04:47,428 --> 00:04:48,668 Speaker 2: Also, they are a duo. 107 00:04:48,788 --> 00:04:50,948 Speaker 7: This is no longer just TJ. Watt Defensive Player of 108 00:04:50,948 --> 00:04:52,548 Speaker 7: the Year throwing the whole team on his back like 109 00:04:52,548 --> 00:04:55,508 Speaker 7: he's Atlas coming up a mountain. This is, in this 110 00:04:55,628 --> 00:04:58,348 Speaker 7: case a duo, and I think high Smith showed his 111 00:04:58,428 --> 00:04:59,148 Speaker 7: worth right now. 112 00:04:59,468 --> 00:05:01,188 Speaker 2: I'm not trying to be dramatic. Here they go down. 113 00:05:01,428 --> 00:05:04,508 Speaker 7: Two started the season with two losses at home and 114 00:05:04,548 --> 00:05:07,828 Speaker 7: the losses being to the Browns, and of course opening 115 00:05:07,868 --> 00:05:10,068 Speaker 7: weekending blown out by the Steelers, and the offense looking 116 00:05:10,068 --> 00:05:12,788 Speaker 7: the way it is, it's dark times one on one 117 00:05:12,868 --> 00:05:15,468 Speaker 7: right now, All right, let's get to the weekend. Let's 118 00:05:15,508 --> 00:05:17,428 Speaker 7: get to what we got in week three, a clutch win. 119 00:05:17,828 --> 00:05:19,908 Speaker 7: And it wasn't because of the offense. It was because 120 00:05:19,948 --> 00:05:22,188 Speaker 7: of high Smith on one end, and it's because a lot 121 00:05:22,228 --> 00:05:23,748 Speaker 7: on the other. They were the most dominant players in 122 00:05:23,788 --> 00:05:25,988 Speaker 7: the field, aside from Michaeh Parsons, the might have been 123 00:05:25,988 --> 00:05:28,188 Speaker 7: the most dominant defensive players in all the football this weekend. 124 00:05:28,268 --> 00:05:29,948 Speaker 8: Yeah, it was beautiful to wash them to your point. 125 00:05:30,028 --> 00:05:32,268 Speaker 8: High Smith fourteen and a half sacks last year, when 126 00:05:32,308 --> 00:05:33,948 Speaker 8: Watt goes down, get paid. 127 00:05:34,308 --> 00:05:35,628 Speaker 2: Those two now be on the field. 128 00:05:35,788 --> 00:05:38,348 Speaker 8: You talked about an ugly game that it was twenty 129 00:05:38,468 --> 00:05:41,948 Speaker 8: quarterback hits in the game, eight sacks. There were two interceptions, 130 00:05:42,188 --> 00:05:44,748 Speaker 8: five fumbles. It was just a football all over the place. 131 00:05:44,908 --> 00:05:46,748 Speaker 8: There was a play earlier on in the first quarter 132 00:05:46,788 --> 00:05:49,588 Speaker 8: where the Browns force a fumble on the Steelers and 133 00:05:49,628 --> 00:05:51,788 Speaker 8: then Delpit picks it up then he fumbles. The ball 134 00:05:51,868 --> 00:05:53,868 Speaker 8: was just bouncing all over the place. It looked like 135 00:05:53,908 --> 00:05:56,348 Speaker 8: my son's kind of flag football game from this past 136 00:05:56,388 --> 00:05:58,428 Speaker 8: weekend where they're just out there trying to figure it 137 00:05:58,468 --> 00:06:02,988 Speaker 8: all out. True, but nonetheless, Steelers offense absolutely struggled in 138 00:06:03,028 --> 00:06:03,388 Speaker 8: this one. 139 00:06:03,548 --> 00:06:04,268 Speaker 2: Shrags you high. 140 00:06:04,708 --> 00:06:06,988 Speaker 8: The defense, well, I'm gonna low like the offense of 141 00:06:07,028 --> 00:06:09,148 Speaker 8: what they were able to put up last night. We 142 00:06:09,228 --> 00:06:12,148 Speaker 8: watched them throughout the preseason and Canny Pickett every drive 143 00:06:12,228 --> 00:06:15,508 Speaker 8: he went out there, it was a touchdown, pickets to picket. 144 00:06:15,068 --> 00:06:16,068 Speaker 2: To the whole nine. 145 00:06:16,228 --> 00:06:18,508 Speaker 8: Yes, they scored a touchdown last night on a blown 146 00:06:18,548 --> 00:06:22,348 Speaker 8: coverage by the Browns, their second touchdown of the season. 147 00:06:23,028 --> 00:06:24,748 Speaker 2: They only rushed for fifty. 148 00:06:24,428 --> 00:06:27,268 Speaker 8: Five yards last night. And we're looking at Naji Harris 149 00:06:27,308 --> 00:06:29,788 Speaker 8: and Jalen Warren and why these are the guys like 150 00:06:29,868 --> 00:06:33,108 Speaker 8: hand the ball off play good defense, and that's not happening. 151 00:06:33,388 --> 00:06:37,588 Speaker 8: For whatever reason, it just hasn't been pretty. Steelers fans frustrated, 152 00:06:37,708 --> 00:06:41,108 Speaker 8: chanting fire Canada during the game, which was not fun 153 00:06:41,148 --> 00:06:43,388 Speaker 8: to see at all. I don't know what's going on 154 00:06:43,468 --> 00:06:45,468 Speaker 8: with the offense of what we saw the magic and 155 00:06:45,508 --> 00:06:47,388 Speaker 8: the preseason. I guess it was just they weren't going 156 00:06:47,428 --> 00:06:50,428 Speaker 8: against starters. But so far this season it just hasn't 157 00:06:50,428 --> 00:06:52,748 Speaker 8: been good. Pickets said after the game, they have to 158 00:06:52,748 --> 00:06:54,828 Speaker 8: do better to get the defense off the field. The 159 00:06:54,828 --> 00:06:56,908 Speaker 8: defense gave up some rush yards, but some of it 160 00:06:56,948 --> 00:06:58,828 Speaker 8: was they were out there too long because the offense 161 00:06:59,108 --> 00:07:02,628 Speaker 8: wasn't able to get anything going negative seven yards in 162 00:07:02,668 --> 00:07:04,028 Speaker 8: the fourth quarter and they still wont it. 163 00:07:04,428 --> 00:07:05,428 Speaker 2: It felt like it was third and eight. 164 00:07:05,508 --> 00:07:08,828 Speaker 7: Every time the Steelers have the walls, they're featuring the 165 00:07:08,868 --> 00:07:10,788 Speaker 7: wrong running back, and anybody watches the game can tell. 166 00:07:10,828 --> 00:07:12,628 Speaker 1: I mean, it's obviously we'll get into that a little bit. 167 00:07:12,668 --> 00:07:14,108 Speaker 1: I just want to talk about Nick Chubb. Just let's 168 00:07:14,108 --> 00:07:16,308 Speaker 1: just take a hot minute. I love Nick Chubb. We 169 00:07:16,348 --> 00:07:18,428 Speaker 1: all love Nick Chubb.

Everybody is all about Chubb. Last night, 173 00:07:26,628 --> 00:07:28,868 Speaker 1: Akman was talking about how Mike Tomlin he first him 174 00:07:28,948 --> 00:07:29,828 Speaker 1: is mister Chubb. 175 00:07:29,868 --> 00:07:31,948 Speaker 2: This is the Steelers coach. He has that much respect. 176 00:07:32,028 --> 00:07:33,908 Speaker 1: I think the only person who is not all about 177 00:07:33,948 --> 00:07:36,908 Speaker 1: Chubb is Chubb, and that is what makes him so cool. 178 00:07:36,908 --> 00:07:38,828 Speaker 1: He wouldn't say crap if he had a mouthful of it. 179 00:07:39,308 --> 00:07:41,268 Speaker 1: So I want everyone to make sure to understand, just 180 00:07:41,308 --> 00:07:42,948 Speaker 1: in this morning, on Tuesday morning, after we went to 181 00:07:43,028 --> 00:07:46,028 Speaker 1: that terrible injury, how good Nick Chubb is yards per 182 00:07:46,068 --> 00:07:49,468 Speaker 1: carry for career the highest three of all time. It's 183 00:07:49,508 --> 00:07:51,948 Speaker 1: Nick Chubb, It's Jamal Charles, and it's Bo Jackson, who 184 00:07:51,988 --> 00:07:54,588 Speaker 1: is the greatest athlete to ever live. Nick Chubb has 185 00:07:54,628 --> 00:07:57,268 Speaker 1: a six plus yards per carry in the fourth quarter 186 00:07:57,308 --> 00:07:59,308 Speaker 1: of games, which is the most badass stat you could 187 00:07:59,308 --> 00:08:01,108 Speaker 1: come up with for a running back over the last 188 00:08:01,148 --> 00:08:03,788 Speaker 1: three seasons. Who led the NFL and rushing It's that 189 00:08:03,828 --> 00:08:07,308 Speaker 1: guy Taylor. It's not Henry, it's not thought Dereck Henry. No, 190 00:08:07,748 --> 00:08:11,668 Speaker 1: it's Nick Chubb. Because he doesn't say anything. He doesn't gritty, 191 00:08:12,068 --> 00:08:14,668 Speaker 1: he doesn't not in commercials. He shows up with almost 192 00:08:14,668 --> 00:08:18,548 Speaker 1: no accessories, no swag, no nothing, and just moves the chains. 193 00:08:18,628 --> 00:08:19,988 Speaker 1: I think he was the best player on the field 194 00:08:20,028 --> 00:08:21,028 Speaker 1: last night before he got hurt. 195 00:08:21,028 --> 00:08:23,468 Speaker 2: He was electric. He goes down. I hate it. I 196 00:08:23,508 --> 00:08:26,628 Speaker 2: hate it. I'm sick, I'm football depressed. This morning. It's terrible. 197 00:08:26,668 --> 00:08:28,428 Speaker 1: I liked at least he had a contract it's not 198 00:08:28,468 --> 00:08:30,748 Speaker 1: one of these guys who who wasn't paid, and it's 199 00:08:30,748 --> 00:08:32,628 Speaker 1: a shame in that sense. I like that it was 200 00:08:32,668 --> 00:08:34,788 Speaker 1: on natural grass. We don't have to have that conversation. 201 00:08:34,948 --> 00:08:36,628 Speaker 1: But I hate every single thing about this, and I 202 00:08:36,668 --> 00:08:37,868 Speaker 1: just want to take a moment for all of us 203 00:08:37,988 --> 00:08:40,748 Speaker 1: respect to Nick Chubb. Everybody around the league is tweeting 204 00:08:40,788 --> 00:08:43,508 Speaker 1: and tweeting, awesome player, awesome guy. I mean, we remember 205 00:08:43,548 --> 00:08:45,468 Speaker 1: vividly was on Hard Knocks. He's the same draft class 206 00:08:45,468 --> 00:08:47,708 Speaker 1: as Baker, went number one overall. They take Nick Chubb, 207 00:08:47,748 --> 00:08:49,668 Speaker 1: this running back out of Georgia. He shows up to 208 00:08:49,708 --> 00:08:51,748 Speaker 1: the airport, the Hard Knocks camera's there and no one 209 00:08:51,748 --> 00:08:53,908 Speaker 1: knows who he is. No one recognized him. He just 210 00:08:53,908 --> 00:08:56,228 Speaker 1: stands around. And that's after he was at Georgia and 211 00:08:56,268 --> 00:08:58,908 Speaker 1: he was the other guy behind Todd Gurley. That's been 212 00:08:58,948 --> 00:09:02,068 Speaker 1: his MOS whole career. So much respect. I hate that 213 00:09:02,068 --> 00:09:05,268 Speaker 1: that happened, but I have to also some question here. 214 00:09:05,828 --> 00:09:07,988 Speaker 1: So we're all a lot of text change. I'm on 215 00:09:08,028 --> 00:09:10,748 Speaker 1: some text chains with ex players and people all the time. 216 00:09:11,068 --> 00:09:14,028 Speaker 1: The hit, Okay, I'm texting with some people who played 217 00:09:14,068 --> 00:09:16,628 Speaker 1: in the league who said the Mika hit is dirty. 218 00:09:16,708 --> 00:09:18,708 Speaker 1: He should be fine. He should be suspended. There's no 219 00:09:18,748 --> 00:09:20,708 Speaker 1: business for that. He went low and he was vulnerable 220 00:09:20,948 --> 00:09:22,988 Speaker 1: Jason dB for over a decade in the league. What 221 00:09:22,988 --> 00:09:24,908 Speaker 1: did you think of the Mika hit that ended Chubb's night? 222 00:09:24,948 --> 00:09:27,108 Speaker 8: I don't think it was intentionally dirty. I think when 223 00:09:27,148 --> 00:09:29,028 Speaker 8: you look at the replay and you see him going 224 00:09:29,068 --> 00:09:31,548 Speaker 8: low while somebody's tackling them up high, you're like, well, 225 00:09:31,548 --> 00:09:32,988 Speaker 8: why would he do that? And I think from a 226 00:09:33,028 --> 00:09:36,108 Speaker 8: safety position, you have to remember DB's are the smallest 227 00:09:36,108 --> 00:09:37,988 Speaker 8: guys out there on the field a lot of times, 228 00:09:38,028 --> 00:09:39,868 Speaker 8: so the way you get a big back down is 229 00:09:39,908 --> 00:09:42,028 Speaker 8: you have to go low. If you're to make a Fitzpatrick, 230 00:09:42,068 --> 00:09:45,068 Speaker 8: you can't tackle a Nick Chubb up high because he's 231 00:09:45,068 --> 00:09:47,668 Speaker 8: gonna run rate through you. When you so angry ones 232 00:09:47,708 --> 00:09:49,548 Speaker 8: you're seeing a guy stiff arm and all those types 233 00:09:49,548 --> 00:09:52,108 Speaker 8: of things, and that split second in his mind, he's like, 234 00:09:52,108 --> 00:09:53,908 Speaker 8: all right, he's coming through this whole. I have to 235 00:09:53,948 --> 00:09:55,708 Speaker 8: go and I have to take him low. If he 236 00:09:55,748 --> 00:09:57,908 Speaker 8: had to redo it again knowing that somebody had them 237 00:09:57,948 --> 00:09:59,988 Speaker 8: up high, maybe he doesn't, but it's easy for us 238 00:10:00,028 --> 00:10:02,388 Speaker 8: to watch that in slow motion and say, oh, well 239 00:10:02,388 --> 00:10:04,428 Speaker 8: he should have went up top. He had already he 240 00:10:04,468 --> 00:10:07,188 Speaker 8: made that decisions, going full speed up to make a collision. 241 00:10:07,428 --> 00:10:08,948 Speaker 8: You hate to see it, but I don't think there 242 00:10:08,948 --> 00:10:11,628 Speaker 8: was anything dirty or intentional on that play where he's 243 00:10:11,668 --> 00:10:12,868 Speaker 8: trying to injure Nick Chubb. 244 00:10:13,308 --> 00:10:16,108 Speaker 1: Cole, do you think I think it's it's easy to 245 00:10:16,148 --> 00:10:18,828 Speaker 1: sit here and say he went after his knee. You 246 00:10:18,868 --> 00:10:20,628 Speaker 1: think he wanted to go after Nick Chub's knee. I 247 00:10:20,668 --> 00:10:22,748 Speaker 1: don't believe for a second. I know people saying Steel, 248 00:10:22,748 --> 00:10:25,308 Speaker 1: it's your dirty, Fitzpatrick is dirty. Happens very quickly. I'm 249 00:10:25,348 --> 00:10:27,068 Speaker 1: sure that Fitzpatrick would like to have to play back. 250 00:10:27,228 --> 00:10:28,628 Speaker 1: I love make it. I love him as a player. 251 00:10:28,628 --> 00:10:29,948 Speaker 1: I can't sit here and say what are you doing? 252 00:10:29,988 --> 00:10:31,428 Speaker 1: Like he's been in a league a long time, he's 253 00:10:31,428 --> 00:10:32,028 Speaker 1: a professional. 254 00:10:32,508 --> 00:10:35,188 Speaker 3: Peter remind us that if there is any punishment that 255 00:10:35,228 --> 00:10:37,068 Speaker 3: comes down on the back end, it takes a couple 256 00:10:37,068 --> 00:10:39,668 Speaker 3: of days. Has there been any formal announcement about a 257 00:10:39,708 --> 00:10:40,388 Speaker 3: review about that. 258 00:10:40,508 --> 00:10:41,188 Speaker 2: Noah, we'll see. 259 00:10:41,228 --> 00:10:43,228 Speaker 7: I mean Mink is in the hospital too, now it 260 00:10:43,228 --> 00:10:46,308 Speaker 7: sounds yeah, So it's like it's a brutal game punish. 261 00:10:46,348 --> 00:10:47,268 Speaker 7: I don't think he's any. 262 00:10:47,148 --> 00:10:50,748 Speaker 8: There's no penalty for tackling a guy. Look, that doesn't exist. 263 00:10:50,788 --> 00:10:53,348 Speaker 8: You go to a guy's helmet, that's when the penalty 264 00:10:53,428 --> 00:10:54,028 Speaker 8: start to come in. 265 00:10:54,188 --> 00:10:55,788 Speaker 7: So or if you were the wrong socks, you know, 266 00:10:55,988 --> 00:10:57,228 Speaker 7: that's that's huge, Peter. 267 00:10:57,508 --> 00:10:59,908 Speaker 3: So the Trump injury happened in the second quarter. If 268 00:10:59,948 --> 00:11:01,748 Speaker 3: you guys were watching the two games at the same time, 269 00:11:01,748 --> 00:11:03,748 Speaker 3: it was odd because the kickoff was an hour apart, 270 00:11:04,028 --> 00:11:06,668 Speaker 3: and UB's injury, you know, took up so much time 271 00:11:06,828 --> 00:11:09,188 Speaker 3: to get the game going again. Not that the Browns 272 00:11:09,188 --> 00:11:11,868 Speaker 3: had some crazy offensive clip going, but they really stalled 273 00:11:11,868 --> 00:11:13,468 Speaker 3: out after that. It was tough for the Browns to 274 00:11:13,468 --> 00:11:15,348 Speaker 3: get going. What do you attribute that to? 275 00:11:15,428 --> 00:11:15,788 Speaker 2: Watson? 276 00:11:15,788 --> 00:11:18,228 Speaker 3: Deshaun Watson go was twenty two of forty. There was 277 00:11:18,268 --> 00:11:21,468 Speaker 3: a smattering of, you know, unsportsmanlike calls by the Browns, 278 00:11:21,548 --> 00:11:22,908 Speaker 3: just mental errors by them. 279 00:11:23,148 --> 00:11:25,388 Speaker 8: Their offense just doesn't look like it's clicking. I think 280 00:11:25,428 --> 00:11:27,068 Speaker 8: that's the thing we went into this season. 281 00:11:27,068 --> 00:11:28,908 Speaker 2: It was all right. Last year was a mall again. 282 00:11:28,948 --> 00:11:30,788 Speaker 8: De Shawn Watson was coming back right now, he has 283 00:11:30,788 --> 00:11:31,548 Speaker 8: a full offseason. 284 00:11:31,628 --> 00:11:33,508 Speaker 2: Right, let's talk to me. We'll just focus. 285 00:11:33,748 --> 00:11:36,428 Speaker 8: But when you watch it, they relied a ton on 286 00:11:36,508 --> 00:11:39,268 Speaker 8: Nick Chubb throughout the first two weeks, when he went down, 287 00:11:39,348 --> 00:11:41,148 Speaker 8: Ford stepped up and they were able to get good 288 00:11:41,148 --> 00:11:43,748 Speaker 8: production from him. But still from an offensive standpoint of 289 00:11:44,108 --> 00:11:46,988 Speaker 8: driving the ball down the field making those throws, Watson 290 00:11:47,068 --> 00:11:48,508 Speaker 8: Stefanskia just hasn't been there. 291 00:11:52,108 --> 00:11:55,708 Speaker 5: Sakuon Barkley will not play on Thursday night against the 292 00:11:55,748 --> 00:11:58,948 Speaker 5: forty nine Ers. His status now considered week to week 293 00:11:59,068 --> 00:12:02,108 Speaker 5: because of that sprained ankle that he suffered in Sunday's 294 00:12:02,188 --> 00:12:05,588 Speaker 5: win over the Cardinals. Now this is not believe based 295 00:12:05,628 --> 00:12:08,268 Speaker 5: on my understanding, to be a high ankle sprain. It's 296 00:12:08,268 --> 00:12:11,028 Speaker 5: obviously severe enough that he can't play this week. He 297 00:12:11,108 --> 00:12:13,148 Speaker 5: was in a lot of pain on the sideline. But 298 00:12:13,268 --> 00:12:16,028 Speaker 5: all in all, it's not the worst news given the 299 00:12:16,028 --> 00:12:19,268 Speaker 5: circumstances for the Giants, because Barkley has an opportunity here 300 00:12:19,508 --> 00:12:22,668 Speaker 5: to get back sometime in the coming weeks. For now, 301 00:12:22,788 --> 00:12:26,188 Speaker 5: coming off that thrilling comeback victory, they now roll into 302 00:12:26,188 --> 00:12:29,588 Speaker 5: San Francisco with a running back depth chart of Matt Brida, 303 00:12:30,068 --> 00:12:34,148 Speaker 5: Gary Brightwell, and rookie fifth round pick Eric Gray. Will 304 00:12:34,308 --> 00:12:36,588 Speaker 5: monitor that how that shakes out in terms of the 305 00:12:36,628 --> 00:12:40,108 Speaker 5: workload in that backfield. But obviously not ideal when you're 306 00:12:40,108 --> 00:12:42,188 Speaker 5: going up against one of the NFL's best defenses. 307 00:12:43,628 --> 00:12:44,348 Speaker 6: Absolutely not. 308 00:12:44,428 --> 00:12:46,508 Speaker 3: I just hate that it happened on a short week. Tom. 309 00:12:46,548 --> 00:12:48,748 Speaker 3: Thank you very much. Talk to you in a little bit, 310 00:12:48,748 --> 00:12:50,148 Speaker 3: and I hope it's good news next time. 311 00:12:52,748 --> 00:12:53,508 Speaker 2: Appreciate it, Tom. 312 00:12:53,588 --> 00:12:56,108 Speaker 8: Let's get to some football now, Saints Panthers. That was 313 00:12:56,148 --> 00:12:59,708 Speaker 8: another game all Monday Night, Saints Lee twenty to nine. 314 00:12:59,748 --> 00:13:03,908 Speaker 8: They will go on to win this one twenty to thirteen. 315 00:13:04,468 --> 00:13:07,908 Speaker 8: Get the victory division opponent Saints now two and all. 316 00:13:07,988 --> 00:13:09,868 Speaker 8: Let's hear from Derek Carr to see what he had 317 00:13:09,908 --> 00:13:10,628 Speaker 8: to say after. 318 00:13:10,508 --> 00:13:13,708 Speaker 2: The big win. Well, there's a lot of work that 319 00:13:13,748 --> 00:13:14,988 Speaker 2: needs to be done. 320 00:13:15,108 --> 00:13:16,428 Speaker 9: You know, we had a few opportunities. 321 00:13:16,428 --> 00:13:16,868 Speaker 4: For sure. 322 00:13:16,988 --> 00:13:18,548 Speaker 9: There's so much that we have to clean up. But 323 00:13:18,588 --> 00:13:20,348 Speaker 9: it feels so good to clean up when you win. 324 00:13:20,508 --> 00:13:23,468 Speaker 9: You know, Like I sat outside, like we're two and oh, 325 00:13:23,668 --> 00:13:25,948 Speaker 9: and I don't think that we've played at the level 326 00:13:25,988 --> 00:13:28,388 Speaker 9: that we're all expecting to play at yet. But we're 327 00:13:28,388 --> 00:13:31,508 Speaker 9: going to keep striving. We're gonna keep working and make 328 00:13:31,548 --> 00:13:33,748 Speaker 9: those corrections. But it feels good to do it with 329 00:13:33,788 --> 00:13:34,108 Speaker 9: a win. 330 00:13:34,188 --> 00:13:34,548 Speaker 2: For sure. 331 00:13:37,228 --> 00:13:40,348 Speaker 3: To quote Jason mccordy, adjustments are much easier when you win. 332 00:13:40,468 --> 00:13:42,908 Speaker 3: Time for today is wake up Call presented by Verizon 333 00:13:42,988 --> 00:13:45,828 Speaker 3: three teams. As we mentioned two and oh in the 334 00:13:45,948 --> 00:13:49,428 Speaker 3: NFC South, the Saints cap that one off last night. 335 00:13:49,508 --> 00:13:51,908 Speaker 3: Are they for real in this division here or a 336 00:13:52,108 --> 00:13:53,188 Speaker 3: little elsewhere? 337 00:13:52,988 --> 00:13:55,028 Speaker 2: They're for real in this division? This division is going 338 00:13:55,068 --> 00:13:55,988 Speaker 2: to be one of those. 339 00:13:55,748 --> 00:13:58,428 Speaker 7: That we checked in in week sixteen, seventeen and eighteen. 340 00:13:58,468 --> 00:14:00,588 Speaker 7: I want no one's going eighteen and oh in this 341 00:14:00,628 --> 00:14:02,708 Speaker 7: division and the Saints. To Derek Carr's point, I actually 342 00:14:02,868 --> 00:14:03,428 Speaker 7: respect his. 343 00:14:03,428 --> 00:14:04,028 Speaker 2: Humility on this. 344 00:14:04,428 --> 00:14:06,348 Speaker 7: We didn't played great and yet we end up two 345 00:14:06,348 --> 00:14:07,988 Speaker 7: and oh, and he personally hasn't played great. 346 00:14:08,028 --> 00:14:09,828 Speaker 2: He threw a really bad pick in this game where 347 00:14:09,868 --> 00:14:10,148 Speaker 2: it's just. 348 00:14:10,148 --> 00:14:12,348 Speaker 7: Like a loft thing floated ball, and you're like, really, 349 00:14:12,388 --> 00:14:15,148 Speaker 7: Derek Carr, still, after all these years, you still throw those, 350 00:14:15,188 --> 00:14:17,388 Speaker 7: and it got picked and then when it mattered most, 351 00:14:17,388 --> 00:14:19,508 Speaker 7: he did pick it up in the fourth quarter. I 352 00:14:19,708 --> 00:14:22,108 Speaker 7: liked what I saw from the Saints defense, of course, 353 00:14:22,148 --> 00:14:24,028 Speaker 7: and that's a bunch of veterans. Those are guys who 354 00:14:24,028 --> 00:14:25,988 Speaker 7: were able to put the clams on Bryce Young, but 355 00:14:26,028 --> 00:14:28,148 Speaker 7: even they let the Panthers back at the end. 356 00:14:28,428 --> 00:14:29,468 Speaker 2: The one note here. 357 00:14:29,428 --> 00:14:32,268 Speaker 7: Jamal Williams goes down with an injury and this. Tony 358 00:14:32,348 --> 00:14:34,068 Speaker 7: Jones steps up fourth year at a Notre Dame and 359 00:14:34,148 --> 00:14:36,668 Speaker 7: Tony Jones just hammers in two touchdowns, playing like a 360 00:14:36,708 --> 00:14:39,748 Speaker 7: big running back. And it's like, that's also the Saints way. 361 00:14:39,988 --> 00:14:42,588 Speaker 7: They have next man up qualities right now. I look 362 00:14:42,628 --> 00:14:44,468 Speaker 7: at the NFC South, the Bucks are two and oh, 363 00:14:44,508 --> 00:14:46,148 Speaker 7: the Falcons are two and oh, the Saints are two 364 00:14:46,148 --> 00:14:46,308 Speaker 7: and oh. 365 00:14:46,348 --> 00:14:47,468 Speaker 2: I don't think any of us had that. 366 00:14:47,508 --> 00:14:49,268 Speaker 7: I'm happy to see it for all those fan bases, 367 00:14:49,388 --> 00:14:49,988 Speaker 7: but don't. 368 00:14:49,788 --> 00:14:51,188 Speaker 2: Be crowning anybody in week three. 369 00:14:51,268 --> 00:14:52,948 Speaker 7: None of these teams have looked spectacular. 370 00:14:53,148 --> 00:14:55,268 Speaker 8: Yeah, no, no doubt about it. And I look at 371 00:14:55,308 --> 00:14:58,148 Speaker 8: it last night. The Saints defense is really good. Legit 372 00:14:58,228 --> 00:15:01,068 Speaker 8: one takeaway you saw wash them against the Tennessee Titans 373 00:15:01,108 --> 00:15:03,428 Speaker 8: in Week one. They make plays all over the field 374 00:15:03,428 --> 00:15:06,548 Speaker 8: to front end Jordan Marshaun Lattimore in the back end, 375 00:15:06,988 --> 00:15:09,788 Speaker 8: to your point, Derek Carr last week through an interception 376 00:15:09,788 --> 00:15:11,428 Speaker 8: when they had an opportunity to go put points on 377 00:15:11,468 --> 00:15:13,908 Speaker 8: the board. Last night lost on up to Von Bell 378 00:15:13,988 --> 00:15:15,988 Speaker 8: with an opportunity to put points on the board. I 379 00:15:15,988 --> 00:15:18,588 Speaker 8: think he's obviously an upgrade of what they've had. But 380 00:15:18,628 --> 00:15:21,148 Speaker 8: when you talk about them being real continents in his division. 381 00:15:21,188 --> 00:15:23,988 Speaker 8: I'm looking at some of the younger quarterbacks in this division, 382 00:15:24,028 --> 00:15:26,108 Speaker 8: a guy like Desmond Ritter, who I think is going 383 00:15:26,188 --> 00:15:28,588 Speaker 8: to get better each and every week. The veterans of 384 00:15:28,668 --> 00:15:31,148 Speaker 8: Baker Mayfield's of Derek Carr. You're expecting those guys to 385 00:15:31,188 --> 00:15:33,628 Speaker 8: come out and be hitting, not on all cylinders, but 386 00:15:33,668 --> 00:15:36,108 Speaker 8: getting things going early on as vets. I look at 387 00:15:36,148 --> 00:15:38,228 Speaker 8: the Falcons in this division and what they've been able 388 00:15:38,268 --> 00:15:40,508 Speaker 8: to do in the run game so far in these 389 00:15:40,508 --> 00:15:41,508 Speaker 8: first two weeks. 390 00:15:41,228 --> 00:15:41,788 Speaker 2: Of the season. 391 00:15:42,068 --> 00:15:43,788 Speaker 8: To your point, yes, Kyle, that's the way I would 392 00:15:43,828 --> 00:15:46,668 Speaker 8: describe it. Every time Jon Robinson touches the ball, it 393 00:15:46,788 --> 00:15:48,588 Speaker 8: is fun. The next thing you know, you to hand 394 00:15:48,628 --> 00:15:50,828 Speaker 8: it off to Tyl Ale's year and it's like get 395 00:15:50,868 --> 00:15:53,268 Speaker 8: out of the way because he's running you over. This 396 00:15:53,348 --> 00:15:55,988 Speaker 8: is exciting, as fund their head coach, going for it 397 00:15:56,028 --> 00:15:57,508 Speaker 8: on fourth down late in the game. 398 00:15:57,748 --> 00:15:58,948 Speaker 2: I think this is a team. 399 00:15:58,748 --> 00:16:01,388 Speaker 8: That you want to root for and you're excited to 400 00:16:01,388 --> 00:16:03,508 Speaker 8: see what they can become week in and week out. 401 00:16:03,508 --> 00:16:05,908 Speaker 8: So if I'm talking about the NFC, sound right now 402 00:16:05,948 --> 00:16:07,788 Speaker 8: to me, I can't wait to watch the Falcons. 403 00:16:07,828 --> 00:16:09,188 Speaker 2: Okay, I hope I'm crediting it. Right. 404 00:16:09,228 --> 00:16:10,868 Speaker 1: I think it was Daniel Jeremiah who was saying, if 405 00:16:10,868 --> 00:16:12,908 Speaker 1: you put on G John's tape as a rookie, it 406 00:16:12,948 --> 00:16:15,788 Speaker 1: looks like LT as a rookie Ladanian like same hips, 407 00:16:15,788 --> 00:16:18,388 Speaker 1: same all that stuff. I kind of still think it's 408 00:16:18,388 --> 00:16:20,668 Speaker 1: the Saints. Derek Carr is not comfortable at all. And 409 00:16:20,708 --> 00:16:22,308 Speaker 1: you can tell it because we've been watching Derek Carr 410 00:16:22,308 --> 00:16:24,708 Speaker 1: for a decade, usually very positive, like good body language. 411 00:16:24,788 --> 00:16:27,748 Speaker 1: He's pissed out there, like he's he's grumpy, he's frustrated. 412 00:16:27,788 --> 00:16:28,628 Speaker 2: He's doing a lot of this. 413 00:16:29,028 --> 00:16:30,988 Speaker 1: He gets in the sideline, does that like mean, looked 414 00:16:30,988 --> 00:16:31,668 Speaker 1: at Derek Carr. 415 00:16:31,708 --> 00:16:33,468 Speaker 2: He does a lot. You can tell he's not comfortable. 416 00:16:33,468 --> 00:16:34,908 Speaker 1: But you know what, he's two and oh yeah, like 417 00:16:35,028 --> 00:16:36,868 Speaker 1: just figure it out on the fly and Stack wins. 418 00:16:37,508 --> 00:16:39,388 Speaker 1: My rationale is of the three teams that are two 419 00:16:39,388 --> 00:16:42,268 Speaker 1: and oh, he got six units offensive defense, the Saints 420 00:16:42,268 --> 00:16:44,348 Speaker 1: defense is the best unit of the six. Like that's 421 00:16:44,428 --> 00:16:46,908 Speaker 1: those guys, those guys are OG's, those guys are dogs. 422 00:16:46,908 --> 00:16:49,548 Speaker 2: I mean Tomorrow David's chasing down. I sound that's a 423 00:16:49,548 --> 00:16:51,948 Speaker 2: big play. Tomorrow's not a young dude. I still can 424 00:16:51,988 --> 00:16:52,668 Speaker 2: get it done. 425 00:16:52,508 --> 00:16:54,548 Speaker 1: I get fired up about the Falcons run Game two 426 00:16:54,588 --> 00:16:56,628 Speaker 1: and I get fired up about Baker Mayfield and those 427 00:16:56,628 --> 00:16:58,708 Speaker 1: guys in Tampa. But the Saints defense, to me, is 428 00:16:58,708 --> 00:17:00,388 Speaker 1: still going to carry you home. I think Derek Carr 429 00:17:00,388 --> 00:17:01,788 Speaker 1: will figure it out a little more as we can. 430 00:17:01,948 --> 00:17:04,748 Speaker 3: I'm thrilled for the Buccaneers start. I mean, Baker Field 431 00:17:05,188 --> 00:17:07,228 Speaker 3: look settled in on a team that has taken him 432 00:17:07,228 --> 00:17:09,388 Speaker 3: a couple of years to really find footing and match 433 00:17:09,508 --> 00:17:12,628 Speaker 3: up with the team the Buccaneers the Monday Night Special 434 00:17:12,668 --> 00:17:15,468 Speaker 3: this week. Now we're way ahead the Eagles. Oh baby 435 00:17:15,468 --> 00:17:17,828 Speaker 3: Buccaneers Eagles, which will be awesome. You know what I 436 00:17:17,828 --> 00:17:20,388 Speaker 3: appreciate about this division, Kyle. This Maybe it wasn't this 437 00:17:20,428 --> 00:17:23,028 Speaker 3: time last year, but we were into October. I think 438 00:17:23,108 --> 00:17:25,708 Speaker 3: when the NFC South was just kind of an uncomfortable 439 00:17:25,748 --> 00:17:28,148 Speaker 3: division to look at. It's like you, you didn't you 440 00:17:28,188 --> 00:17:30,588 Speaker 3: felt badly about the matchups. You wanted the answers to 441 00:17:30,628 --> 00:17:32,988 Speaker 3: some of the questions. I feel better about the football 442 00:17:33,028 --> 00:17:34,668 Speaker 3: that we played in the division. 443 00:17:34,468 --> 00:17:34,788 Speaker 2: That's sure. 444 00:17:34,828 --> 00:17:36,428 Speaker 1: Now we look up the NFC North and it doesn't 445 00:17:36,428 --> 00:17:38,148 Speaker 1: look good. But right now the NFC South is like, 446 00:17:38,148 --> 00:17:39,988 Speaker 1: all right, we're winning some games. Yes, the one we 447 00:17:40,068 --> 00:17:41,868 Speaker 1: said going to the segment there's three two and oh 448 00:17:41,908 --> 00:17:42,428 Speaker 1: teams in the South. 449 00:17:42,468 --> 00:17:45,588 Speaker 2: We all thought it was wrong. Is that true? Actually right? 450 00:17:45,868 --> 00:17:49,828 Speaker 7: You never doubt there were storytellers here, and there's great stories. 451 00:17:49,868 --> 00:17:51,388 Speaker 2: The Atlanta story is a great story. 452 00:17:51,468 --> 00:17:53,788 Speaker 7: Ridder's the third round pick cars trying to salvage his 453 00:17:53,868 --> 00:17:55,868 Speaker 7: career and had a final chapter. And then of course 454 00:17:56,348 --> 00:17:59,228 Speaker 7: when you talk about what you've got with the Buccaneers, 455 00:17:59,228 --> 00:18:00,948 Speaker 7: it's like Mayfield post Brady. 456 00:18:00,988 --> 00:18:01,908 Speaker 2: Okay, we love. 457 00:18:01,748 --> 00:18:05,988 Speaker 1: Baker, Baker hooks us sometimes, you know, like realists back in, 458 00:18:06,308 --> 00:18:07,268 Speaker 1: I hope this one. 459 00:18:07,108 --> 00:18:07,628 Speaker 2: Was for real. 460 00:18:12,188 --> 00:18:13,788 Speaker 1: I think this is the best player in the NFL. 461 00:18:14,108 --> 00:18:15,788 Speaker 1: I think through two weeks he has the best player 462 00:18:15,828 --> 00:18:18,708 Speaker 1: at any position. We talked all week about how they're 463 00:18:18,708 --> 00:18:19,268 Speaker 1: gonna stop him. 464 00:18:19,268 --> 00:18:19,628 Speaker 2: They didn't. 465 00:18:19,828 --> 00:18:23,348 Speaker 1: He's forcing fumbles, he's making guys embarrassed, he's turning them 466 00:18:23,348 --> 00:18:26,308 Speaker 1: into gifts. If vine was here, they'd make vines out 467 00:18:26,308 --> 00:18:31,068 Speaker 1: of Michael Parsons. He's just everything you fear, everything you anticipate. 468 00:18:31,228 --> 00:18:35,548 Speaker 8: Michael Parsons of the Dallas Cowboys, just making play after 469 00:18:35,708 --> 00:18:36,908 Speaker 8: play after play. 470 00:18:37,028 --> 00:18:37,788 Speaker 2: He had two. 471 00:18:37,708 --> 00:18:39,908 Speaker 8: Sacks, he had to tackle four loss, He had to 472 00:18:39,988 --> 00:18:43,708 Speaker 8: cornerback a bunch of times. Michael Parsons is just unbelievable. 473 00:18:43,988 --> 00:18:46,908 Speaker 8: He gets my game ball. He should get everybody's game ball. 474 00:18:47,188 --> 00:18:49,268 Speaker 8: That's how good he was against the New York Jets. 475 00:18:50,708 --> 00:18:53,388 Speaker 7: Best player in football, he should get everybody's game. 476 00:18:53,268 --> 00:18:55,188 Speaker 2: Oh it's time for we and we are let's take 477 00:18:55,228 --> 00:18:56,148 Speaker 2: this to the next level. 478 00:18:56,188 --> 00:18:58,788 Speaker 7: It's dingy and I was presented by Progressive Insurance. So 479 00:18:58,868 --> 00:19:01,428 Speaker 7: as we know our colleagues Kyle and Jason, we're raping 480 00:19:01,468 --> 00:19:05,028 Speaker 7: about Michael Parsons Week two performance deservedly. So Kyle went 481 00:19:05,068 --> 00:19:07,028 Speaker 7: as far as they call the best player in the NFL. 482 00:19:07,068 --> 00:19:11,268 Speaker 7: So here's my statement. A defensive player could win the 483 00:19:11,348 --> 00:19:14,788 Speaker 7: MVP Award in today's quarterback focused NFL? 484 00:19:15,148 --> 00:19:16,548 Speaker 2: Are we in? Are we at? Would they ever give 485 00:19:16,588 --> 00:19:17,348 Speaker 2: it to a defensive player? 486 00:19:17,628 --> 00:19:17,908 Speaker 7: Oh? 487 00:19:17,948 --> 00:19:21,028 Speaker 8: I wish, I wish, I shall just sounds so amazing 488 00:19:21,068 --> 00:19:22,508 Speaker 8: a defensive player winning it. 489 00:19:22,868 --> 00:19:25,148 Speaker 2: But I am out on this. I do not think 490 00:19:25,228 --> 00:19:26,028 Speaker 2: it will happen. 491 00:19:26,148 --> 00:19:30,588 Speaker 8: Everybody, just as the love the quarterback, everything the quarterback does, 492 00:19:30,628 --> 00:19:33,268 Speaker 8: it's all about the offense. I don't see what we 493 00:19:33,308 --> 00:19:35,428 Speaker 8: can barely get a running back or a receiver to 494 00:19:35,468 --> 00:19:38,068 Speaker 8: win an MVP Award, let alone a guy on the 495 00:19:38,148 --> 00:19:41,588 Speaker 8: defensive side. If Micah has thirty sacks or something just 496 00:19:41,668 --> 00:19:43,028 Speaker 8: absolutely ridiculous. 497 00:19:43,308 --> 00:19:44,588 Speaker 6: Maybe, but I don't see it. 498 00:19:44,628 --> 00:19:47,508 Speaker 3: I wish it would be try you Faine optimism, my friend. 499 00:19:47,588 --> 00:19:50,148 Speaker 3: I am in on this only because the way the 500 00:19:50,148 --> 00:19:53,508 Speaker 3: season has started, it's not like anyone out of two weeks, 501 00:19:53,508 --> 00:19:55,988 Speaker 3: it's like, Wow, that quarterback is on a hell of 502 00:19:56,028 --> 00:20:00,268 Speaker 3: a trajectory. So sure, if not any other year, this one, Peter. 503 00:20:00,388 --> 00:20:01,068 Speaker 2: I want it so bad. 504 00:20:01,548 --> 00:20:03,748 Speaker 1: And so the Micah Persons thing is that I think 505 00:20:03,788 --> 00:20:05,828 Speaker 1: he has been better at his position than anybody has 506 00:20:05,828 --> 00:20:07,428 Speaker 1: been at there. He's been better than Mahomes, He's better 507 00:20:07,468 --> 00:20:11,428 Speaker 1: than Justin Tucker like everybody. I'm probably out though, Like 508 00:20:11,588 --> 00:20:13,748 Speaker 1: we go back a few years, Aaron Donald. 509 00:20:13,468 --> 00:20:15,068 Speaker 2: Was the best player in football. Ye, like he was 510 00:20:15,108 --> 00:20:16,868 Speaker 2: just the best player. But he's not going to the MVP. 511 00:20:17,068 --> 00:20:19,988 Speaker 2: It's just the raw statistics have to be so high. 512 00:20:20,148 --> 00:20:22,708 Speaker 1: I think back about ten years ago when Mantai Teo 513 00:20:22,788 --> 00:20:24,588 Speaker 1: took a real run at the Heisman as a linebacker, 514 00:20:24,588 --> 00:20:25,028 Speaker 1: and you're like, he. 515 00:20:25,188 --> 00:20:26,268 Speaker 2: Had the numbers, he had everything. 516 00:20:26,388 --> 00:20:29,388 Speaker 1: A freshman quarterback beats Hi Johnny Manzel because of the stats. 517 00:20:29,628 --> 00:20:32,468 Speaker 1: I think the recipe whereby Micah Parsons, who win MVP. 518 00:20:32,628 --> 00:20:34,068 Speaker 1: That's fens to play the year. I think you have 519 00:20:34,108 --> 00:20:36,708 Speaker 1: to break the straight hand sack record. So we were 520 00:20:36,708 --> 00:20:37,508 Speaker 1: talking about twenty three. 521 00:20:37,588 --> 00:20:38,188 Speaker 2: That's one thing. 522 00:20:38,228 --> 00:20:39,868 Speaker 7: You've got one thing, twenty three sacks. 523 00:20:40,108 --> 00:20:42,108 Speaker 1: He also wants to have we always call Heisman moments 524 00:20:42,148 --> 00:20:44,708 Speaker 1: where you have a huge pick six femakavor touchdown on 525 00:20:44,748 --> 00:20:47,588 Speaker 1: Monday Night football. You have to do that, and you 526 00:20:47,748 --> 00:20:49,988 Speaker 1: also need the quarterback stats to regress and the big 527 00:20:50,028 --> 00:20:51,748 Speaker 1: headline quarterbacks and not have the greatest year. 528 00:20:51,948 --> 00:20:53,228 Speaker 2: I think that's what's going to hurt him. 529 00:20:53,268 --> 00:20:55,908 Speaker 7: If the Cowboys go on this miraculous season like they're 530 00:20:55,948 --> 00:20:57,668 Speaker 7: starting off to be as good as the defense is. 531 00:20:57,748 --> 00:21:00,668 Speaker 7: If Dak comes in and he's thirteen and four or 532 00:21:00,708 --> 00:21:02,788 Speaker 7: fourteen and three and the Cowboys are the one seed, 533 00:21:03,188 --> 00:21:06,028 Speaker 7: there's any voters saying this is dad, this is maduc 534 00:21:06,108 --> 00:21:10,228 Speaker 7: did the last defensive player in nineteen eighty six, Lawrence 535 00:21:10,268 --> 00:21:13,748 Speaker 7: Taylor did win it and no one questions that award now, Like, 536 00:21:14,108 --> 00:21:16,428 Speaker 7: I don't know to your point, if Parsons does those things, 537 00:21:16,468 --> 00:21:17,548 Speaker 7: and that might be a tough check. 538 00:21:18,388 --> 00:21:21,268 Speaker 2: Breaks the sack record, Okay, that's huge. Ask the playoffs 539 00:21:21,268 --> 00:21:22,508 Speaker 2: when the East they. 540 00:21:22,388 --> 00:21:23,828 Speaker 8: Went there in the playoffs, it doesn't have to be 541 00:21:23,948 --> 00:21:26,268 Speaker 8: way better than every other defensive player because we just 542 00:21:26,308 --> 00:21:31,028 Speaker 8: watched Absolute show too, so it was the site we 543 00:21:31,068 --> 00:21:33,428 Speaker 8: watched Bolsa last year when the defensive player here, Michael 544 00:21:33,468 --> 00:21:35,828 Speaker 8: was really good last year too, So it's tough. 545 00:21:35,948 --> 00:21:37,268 Speaker 1: I think we got a crawl before we can walk. 546 00:21:37,268 --> 00:21:39,308 Speaker 1: I'd love to get another Super Bowl MVP on defense. 547 00:21:39,388 --> 00:21:41,148 Speaker 1: Like that's pretty rare too, and I think it's deserved. 548 00:21:41,188 --> 00:21:44,388 Speaker 2: I think von Miller was the last one. Yeah, okay. 549 00:21:44,548 --> 00:21:46,548 Speaker 7: Moving on from one of the most entertaining players in 550 00:21:46,548 --> 00:21:49,068 Speaker 7: the league to maybe the most entertaining coach in the league. 551 00:21:49,268 --> 00:21:53,308 Speaker 7: Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel was interviewed at halftime by 552 00:21:53,348 --> 00:21:56,348 Speaker 7: our dear friend Melissa Stark, and just just watch how 553 00:21:56,348 --> 00:21:59,468 Speaker 7: it goes and how it finishes. You have been able 554 00:21:59,508 --> 00:22:01,828 Speaker 7: to move the ball on this Bill Belajeck defense. 555 00:22:01,988 --> 00:22:03,228 Speaker 1: What is working so well? 556 00:22:03,268 --> 00:22:03,868 Speaker 7: Offensively? 557 00:22:04,908 --> 00:22:05,828 Speaker 6: I haven't done anything. 558 00:22:05,868 --> 00:22:08,308 Speaker 10: The players have done a great job executing some stuff. 559 00:22:08,308 --> 00:22:10,948 Speaker 10: We need to clean some stuff up. They're always in 560 00:22:10,988 --> 00:22:12,708 Speaker 10: the game, so we have a whole half to play, 561 00:22:12,788 --> 00:22:15,428 Speaker 10: so can't let our guard down. Need to make some 562 00:22:15,508 --> 00:22:17,988 Speaker 10: second half adjustments and press forward. 563 00:22:18,868 --> 00:22:22,708 Speaker 11: He's casual, he's confident and he's connected with his team 564 00:22:22,748 --> 00:22:23,228 Speaker 11: as well. 565 00:22:23,548 --> 00:22:25,748 Speaker 2: Miami's seventeen to three. They get the ball to start 566 00:22:25,788 --> 00:22:27,508 Speaker 2: the second half the twenty and a half time, go 567 00:22:27,628 --> 00:22:29,028 Speaker 2: get a Mike hustle in there. 568 00:22:29,068 --> 00:22:31,908 Speaker 1: We're hustling to Maria, we won't pull a hamstrang, I promise. 569 00:22:34,348 --> 00:22:36,068 Speaker 7: I was worried about it, sayings doing great job by 570 00:22:36,108 --> 00:22:38,588 Speaker 7: Tarico narrating that and very cool. They kept that shot 571 00:22:38,628 --> 00:22:41,708 Speaker 7: on there. But he starts running and like Mike's got 572 00:22:41,708 --> 00:22:44,668 Speaker 7: some wheels. So here's the comment. Mike McDaniel is sneaky faster. 573 00:22:44,868 --> 00:22:46,548 Speaker 2: We interwe out and we're definitely in on that. 574 00:22:46,628 --> 00:22:49,348 Speaker 1: I would describe him as a wiry and that's always fast. 575 00:22:50,148 --> 00:22:51,748 Speaker 1: I don't want to break this segment here, but it 576 00:22:51,828 --> 00:22:54,108 Speaker 1: made me think about We talked in the offseason, who's 577 00:22:54,108 --> 00:22:57,068 Speaker 1: the fittest NFL he golf?

The little research. 581 00:23:02,028 --> 00:23:05,228 Speaker 1: Jonathan Gannon was a hurdle star high school at Standing 582 00:23:05,308 --> 00:23:07,708 Speaker 1: NACIS in Ohio, so he has real speed. 583 00:23:08,068 --> 00:23:09,428 Speaker 2: The guy, though, who has the clock? 584 00:23:10,028 --> 00:23:13,868 Speaker 1: Kevin O'Connell ran a four six one forty at the 585 00:23:13,908 --> 00:23:16,948 Speaker 1: Combine fifteen years ago for six to one, even though 586 00:23:16,988 --> 00:23:18,028 Speaker 1: fifteen years ago was legit. 587 00:23:18,388 --> 00:23:20,828 Speaker 2: Can anybody beat McConnell or you can answer the original question. 588 00:23:20,828 --> 00:23:22,748 Speaker 2: I think we all agree, Mike McDaniel sneaky. 589 00:23:22,468 --> 00:23:24,788 Speaker 3: Fast right, Yes, yes, I had to go to the 590 00:23:24,828 --> 00:23:26,948 Speaker 3: tape for this one.

Yes, what about Ryans 619 00:24:40,468 --> 00:24:42,028 Speaker 2: played linebacker and I looked that up. 620 00:24:42,428 --> 00:24:44,428 Speaker 1: He has slower forty times and it's for a while, 621 00:24:44,508 --> 00:24:48,228 Speaker 1: But I think is in the race is probably the youngest. 622 00:24:47,868 --> 00:24:51,188 Speaker 2: And it's just like yeah, mc dannon just with pure energy. 623 00:24:51,348 --> 00:24:53,028 Speaker 1: I think McDaniel has that frame of a guy who 624 00:24:53,108 --> 00:24:55,908 Speaker 1: runs marathons like he looks like he looks like Fritz Goldberg, 625 00:24:55,908 --> 00:24:56,388 Speaker 1: a researcher. 626 00:24:56,468 --> 00:25:01,028 Speaker 2: Yeah, run huge.

Nick 638 00:25:30,988 --> 00:25:34,748 Speaker 7: Chubb suffers an unfortunate injury, carted off the field. We're 639 00:25:34,748 --> 00:25:37,948 Speaker 7: already told he's out for the season, yet there's football 640 00:25:37,948 --> 00:25:38,788 Speaker 7: still to be played. 641 00:25:39,148 --> 00:25:41,388 Speaker 2: Take us inside the Browns front office this morning. That's 642 00:25:41,388 --> 00:25:42,828 Speaker 2: our best player, by a landslide. 643 00:25:42,868 --> 00:25:45,508 Speaker 7: At that position, your star player, the heart of your 644 00:25:45,508 --> 00:25:48,148 Speaker 7: team goes down. What are the next steps and how 645 00:25:48,188 --> 00:25:51,428 Speaker 7: do you handle the emotional and of course the football 646 00:25:51,508 --> 00:25:52,228 Speaker 7: of the situation. 647 00:25:53,948 --> 00:25:56,148 Speaker 6: Peter, Yes, it was absolutely heartbreaking. 648 00:25:56,388 --> 00:25:58,068 Speaker 11: I do want to start by saying that because Nick 649 00:25:58,148 --> 00:26:00,028 Speaker 11: Chubb is not only a terrific player in this league, 650 00:26:00,108 --> 00:26:02,188 Speaker 11: is a fantastic human being that I have a ton 651 00:26:02,228 --> 00:26:05,788 Speaker 11: of respect for. But as we there's the business side, 652 00:26:05,828 --> 00:26:08,428 Speaker 11: and as soon as that is done, what's happening is 653 00:26:08,708 --> 00:26:11,708 Speaker 11: that front office is scrambling. I don't mean scrambling because 654 00:26:11,708 --> 00:26:14,388 Speaker 11: they're in chaos. They are making phone calls because you 655 00:26:14,428 --> 00:26:16,988 Speaker 11: have to remember last night is Monday night. They are 656 00:26:17,028 --> 00:26:19,508 Speaker 11: a day behind everyone else that is in the league 657 00:26:19,548 --> 00:26:21,748 Speaker 11: that is taking care of their injuries. What are the 658 00:26:21,748 --> 00:26:25,228 Speaker 11: Giants doing with Saquon Barkley. The running position has to 659 00:26:25,268 --> 00:26:28,028 Speaker 11: be filled, so right away they are making calls to agents. 660 00:26:28,068 --> 00:26:30,748 Speaker 11: They're trying to get players in. They've got a short week. 661 00:26:30,868 --> 00:26:33,148 Speaker 11: They've got to get a player in at running back 662 00:26:33,388 --> 00:26:35,308 Speaker 11: that's going to be a backup or be part of 663 00:26:35,308 --> 00:26:37,868 Speaker 11: that group that has to get a physical, has to 664 00:26:37,868 --> 00:26:40,068 Speaker 11: get a workout, and that they have to see where 665 00:26:40,068 --> 00:26:42,108 Speaker 11: he is. But if I'm the front office, I got 666 00:26:42,108 --> 00:26:45,188 Speaker 11: to tell you this, what I'm more concerned about is 667 00:26:45,588 --> 00:26:48,628 Speaker 11: we lost our best player, and possibly the next best 668 00:26:48,628 --> 00:26:51,788 Speaker 11: player is our quarterback. A quarterback who's supposed to be 669 00:26:51,788 --> 00:26:53,988 Speaker 11: a leader and had a lot of problems last night. 670 00:26:54,108 --> 00:26:56,988 Speaker 11: He turned the ball over three times, two of them 671 00:26:57,068 --> 00:26:59,588 Speaker 11: that led to a total of fourteen points, has a 672 00:26:59,628 --> 00:27:03,188 Speaker 11: complete meltdown in the game, gets two personal fouls, and 673 00:27:03,268 --> 00:27:06,068 Speaker 11: this is supposed to be their leader. So as I'm 674 00:27:06,108 --> 00:27:08,828 Speaker 11: looking at my football team and I'm moving forward, I 675 00:27:09,028 --> 00:27:12,468 Speaker 11: have concerns of where my quarterback is and how he's 676 00:27:12,548 --> 00:27:16,068 Speaker 11: going to lead. We also had that other incident at 677 00:27:16,108 --> 00:27:18,588 Speaker 11: the end of this play where he shoved an official. 678 00:27:18,588 --> 00:27:19,868 Speaker 6: He's lucky he didn't get thrown out. 679 00:27:20,108 --> 00:27:22,068 Speaker 11: So as a front office I want to make sure 680 00:27:22,108 --> 00:27:26,428 Speaker 11: that my team and my head coach are together moving forward. 681 00:27:28,068 --> 00:27:31,028 Speaker 3: Yeah, your eyes always go to the quarterback, Scott, whether 682 00:27:31,068 --> 00:27:34,188 Speaker 3: it be win or lost. It's your barometer at times, 683 00:27:34,228 --> 00:27:36,108 Speaker 3: and that's where I go with the next question. Panthers' 684 00:27:36,148 --> 00:27:38,668 Speaker 3: rookie quarterback Bryce Young. He came up short in his 685 00:27:38,828 --> 00:27:42,468 Speaker 3: home debut for the Panthers, But despite the loss, can 686 00:27:42,508 --> 00:27:45,148 Speaker 3: you find bright spots for the Panthers organization if you 687 00:27:45,188 --> 00:27:46,868 Speaker 3: were in their front office to take away from his 688 00:27:46,908 --> 00:27:48,748 Speaker 3: performances through the first two weeks. 689 00:27:49,988 --> 00:27:51,068 Speaker 6: Absolutely, Jamie. 690 00:27:51,148 --> 00:27:52,828 Speaker 11: The bright spots to me were the fact that he 691 00:27:52,908 --> 00:27:55,708 Speaker 11: made a lot of good decisions and didn't make many 692 00:27:55,828 --> 00:27:57,988 Speaker 11: bad decisions. The other thing that we saw at of 693 00:27:58,028 --> 00:28:01,188 Speaker 11: Bryce Young was he made some things happen with his feet. 694 00:28:01,588 --> 00:28:03,708 Speaker 6: You have to remember, and everyone knows this, this is. 695 00:28:03,668 --> 00:28:05,828 Speaker 11: Only his second the NFL game, and even though he 696 00:28:05,868 --> 00:28:09,108 Speaker 11: played in the fastest conference in the in the country 697 00:28:09,388 --> 00:28:12,748 Speaker 11: in the SEC, the NFL game is happening faster and 698 00:28:12,788 --> 00:28:15,908 Speaker 11: you could see a couple of times yesterday where Bryce Young. 699 00:28:16,428 --> 00:28:18,548 Speaker 11: The speed of the game was catching him. He had 700 00:28:18,588 --> 00:28:22,588 Speaker 11: that strip sacked where he lost the football early in 701 00:28:22,628 --> 00:28:24,868 Speaker 11: the game, but he didn't have an awareness and I 702 00:28:24,868 --> 00:28:27,028 Speaker 11: don't think he fully understood the speed of the game. 703 00:28:27,228 --> 00:28:29,548 Speaker 11: But if you look at that in totality, there's a 704 00:28:29,588 --> 00:28:31,988 Speaker 11: lot of things to be encouraged with, and it starts 705 00:28:32,028 --> 00:28:34,548 Speaker 11: with the fact that he did not make bad decisions 706 00:28:34,788 --> 00:28:38,708 Speaker 11: and he did not have the pressure impact his performance. 707 00:28:40,268 --> 00:28:41,868 Speaker 1: Harry Scott and we have a lot of respect for 708 00:28:41,908 --> 00:28:44,428 Speaker 1: what you accomplished alongside Bill Belichick's got We've talked about 709 00:28:44,428 --> 00:28:46,308 Speaker 1: it for years, all the things you did with the Patriots. 710 00:28:46,308 --> 00:28:48,388 Speaker 1: But I think that's why this is interesting because we're 711 00:28:48,428 --> 00:28:50,508 Speaker 1: here now in Bill Belichick's Patriots are zero and two. 712 00:28:50,868 --> 00:28:52,868 Speaker 1: They were eight and nine last year, their sub five 713 00:28:52,948 --> 00:28:55,428 Speaker 1: hundred since Tommy left. What do you think is the 714 00:28:55,428 --> 00:28:57,548 Speaker 1: state of Bill Belichick inside his mind? Like what is 715 00:28:57,588 --> 00:28:59,308 Speaker 1: he thinking about right now at this point of the 716 00:28:59,348 --> 00:29:01,148 Speaker 1: season and maybe even this point of his career. 717 00:29:03,028 --> 00:29:05,708 Speaker 11: I think at this point in this season, it's stay 718 00:29:05,748 --> 00:29:08,948 Speaker 11: the course, improve, get better. Here's one thing that Bill 719 00:29:09,028 --> 00:29:12,388 Speaker 11: knows and always preaches. Jason knows this. You are not 720 00:29:12,468 --> 00:29:15,228 Speaker 11: going to be the same team in December and January 721 00:29:15,428 --> 00:29:19,508 Speaker 11: than you are as you are in September. The Patriots 722 00:29:19,508 --> 00:29:21,748 Speaker 11: are zero to two, but they haven't played bad football. 723 00:29:21,868 --> 00:29:23,948 Speaker 11: They've played two of the best teams in the National 724 00:29:23,988 --> 00:29:26,988 Speaker 11: Football League in my opinion, and they've kept it close 725 00:29:27,268 --> 00:29:29,868 Speaker 11: and they're right there. They've also got a quarterback who's 726 00:29:29,868 --> 00:29:33,148 Speaker 11: still getting getting used to his new offensive coordinator and 727 00:29:33,188 --> 00:29:33,988 Speaker 11: Billy O'Brien. 728 00:29:34,548 --> 00:29:36,508 Speaker 6: I think that they're going to be fine. Bill knows 729 00:29:36,508 --> 00:29:37,468 Speaker 6: that they're going to be fine. 730 00:29:37,628 --> 00:29:39,948 Speaker 11: He has things to show on tape why they have 731 00:29:40,068 --> 00:29:42,708 Speaker 11: to improve, what they need to improve. They will be 732 00:29:42,748 --> 00:29:45,188 Speaker 11: a better football team at the end of the season 733 00:29:45,508 --> 00:29:47,508 Speaker 11: than they are right now, and I think that entire 734 00:29:47,628 --> 00:29:49,828 Speaker 11: organization knows that I like it. 735 00:29:49,868 --> 00:29:51,548 Speaker 2: Scott, Scott, I can only imagine. 736 00:29:51,548 --> 00:29:54,108 Speaker 8: I do not miss those one hour long team meetings 737 00:29:54,108 --> 00:29:56,828 Speaker 8: with Bill just standing up the showing film all day long. 738 00:29:56,908 --> 00:29:59,868 Speaker 8: So I'm sure it'll be a fascinating week in Foxboro. 739 00:30:00,028 --> 00:30:02,908 Speaker 8: But Scott, Week two is officially behind us. There are 740 00:30:02,988 --> 00:30:05,988 Speaker 8: nine teams out of sitting two, and all who stands 741 00:30:05,988 --> 00:30:07,188 Speaker 8: out to you, animals. 742 00:30:08,588 --> 00:30:08,828 Speaker 6: Tell you. 743 00:30:08,868 --> 00:30:10,668 Speaker 11: The team that I've been keeping my eye on since 744 00:30:10,708 --> 00:30:13,548 Speaker 11: training camp when I was down in Atlanta is the Falcons. 745 00:30:13,908 --> 00:30:15,988 Speaker 11: I watched them this year in training camp and I 746 00:30:16,028 --> 00:30:18,508 Speaker 11: felt an energy and I saw some things happening with 747 00:30:18,548 --> 00:30:21,188 Speaker 11: head coach Arthur Smith and a group of players were 748 00:30:21,188 --> 00:30:22,148 Speaker 11: really coming together. 749 00:30:22,188 --> 00:30:22,508 Speaker 6: Well. 750 00:30:22,748 --> 00:30:24,748 Speaker 11: As I'm watching this football team, and I watched it 751 00:30:24,788 --> 00:30:26,988 Speaker 11: take the last two weeks, there's a lot of things 752 00:30:26,988 --> 00:30:30,788 Speaker 11: to really like. Young quarterback Desmond Ritter is improving, he's 753 00:30:30,828 --> 00:30:34,268 Speaker 11: getting better. What he has is a terrific offensive line, 754 00:30:34,348 --> 00:30:35,868 Speaker 11: and he's got one of the best running backs in 755 00:30:35,868 --> 00:30:36,868 Speaker 11: the National Football League. 756 00:30:37,028 --> 00:30:38,308 Speaker 6: The guys that have stood out. 757 00:30:38,148 --> 00:30:41,308 Speaker 11: To me on the Atlanta Falcons so far, starting with 758 00:30:41,428 --> 00:30:44,308 Speaker 11: offensive guard Chris Linstrom, who's a Pro bowler and a 759 00:30:44,428 --> 00:30:49,628 Speaker 11: terrific player. But watching Bijon Robinson behind Chris Linstrom in 760 00:30:49,668 --> 00:30:52,628 Speaker 11: the job that he's doing, Bijon has been everything that 761 00:30:52,788 --> 00:30:55,788 Speaker 11: was advertised again, not just from a makeup standpoint, but 762 00:30:55,828 --> 00:30:58,308 Speaker 11: from a performance standpoint.

He had one hundred and 765 00:31:04,228 --> 00:31:08,068 Speaker 11: seventy two yards of total offense. They have the right 766 00:31:08,148 --> 00:31:10,788 Speaker 11: things happening with their offense, their offensive lines doing a 767 00:31:10,868 --> 00:31:14,348 Speaker 11: terrific job, and young b Jhon Robinson is doing a 768 00:31:14,388 --> 00:31:14,908 Speaker 11: super job. 769 00:31:14,948 --> 00:31:16,988 Speaker 6: A lot to look forward to With the Atlanta Falcons, 770 00:31:17,028 --> 00:31:17,908 Speaker 6: I think, yes. 771 00:31:17,908 --> 00:31:19,668 Speaker 2: Come on now, absolute team. 772 00:31:19,788 --> 00:31:22,028 Speaker 7: They're fun, it's so cool.
