Cardinals at the Packers, Colts at the Titans, 17 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 2: Texans at the Patriots, Buccaneers at the Saints, Browns at 18 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 2: the Eagles, Commanders at the Ravens, and Rich already in 19 00:00:59,920 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 2: the books. The big win for the Bears today four 20 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,679 Speaker 2: touchdown passes for Caleb Williams. And you know I was 21 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,480 Speaker 2: listening to the guys this morning and countdown to kickoff 22 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 2: had the best line when they said, expect Doug Peterson 23 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 2: to fly back commercial from London after another debacle for 24 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 2: the Jacksonville Jaguars. It only gets worse for him. But 25 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 2: the good news for the Bears is Caleb Williams looks 26 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 2: better every single week. 27 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,399 Speaker 4: Yeah, London a little bit of a house of horrors 28 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 4: for two coaches on the hot seat in consecutive weeks. 29 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 4: When the Jets got home from London, they immediately fired 30 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 4: Robert Sala will the Jacksonville Jaguars do the same thing 31 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,199 Speaker 4: with Doug Peterson, because I remind you it was Shot Com, 32 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,839 Speaker 4: the owner of the Jacksonville Jaguars, who was bragging about 33 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 4: the quote unquote best roster in Jacksonville Jaguars history to 34 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 4: start this season. And so when you start looking at accountability, 35 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 4: you know, you just paid your quarterback. You're not firing 36 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 4: your quarterback. You know, you look around this roster, you 37 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 4: got good players. So who do you place the most 38 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 4: blame on for less than fortuitous start? You start looking 39 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 4: at the head coach, So Doug Peterson, all of a sudden, 40 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 4: the seat gets ratcheted up another couple of notches in 41 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:14,239 Speaker 4: terms of temperature. 42 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 2: No question about that. It is another busy, busy week 43 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,640 Speaker 2: in the NFL. And this has been craziness already in 44 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 2: this league so far this year. I mean, when you 45 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,679 Speaker 2: have a Josh Allen have a nine for thirty passing day, 46 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 2: which doesn't even seem possible in this day and age, 47 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 2: where you know, quarterbacks regularly complete sixty sixty five percent 48 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 2: of their passes to have that kind of day. We've 49 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 2: been talking about this rich We've seen a bit of 50 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 2: a change in offenses around the NFL where suddenly we're 51 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 2: seeing a little more of a running game these days, 52 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 2: and the defenses seem to have figured out, at least 53 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 2: temporarily some of the offensive schemes that we've seen that 54 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 2: have exploded. I mean, we go back to Patrick mahomes 55 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 2: last ten regular season games, twelve touchdowns, eleven picks. The 56 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 2: thing for him is he still knows how to win games. 57 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 2: And that's the difference why Patrick Mahomes is still on 58 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 2: an undefeated team sitting on top of the mount. But 59 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 2: it's those days, right, you know what you see quarterbacks 60 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:14,519 Speaker 2: throwing fifty touchdown passes five thousand yards passing. I think 61 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,679 Speaker 2: we're in a little bit of a lull right now, 62 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 2: so I have to adjust our eyeballs because we're seeing 63 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 2: a much different NFL than we saw just two or 64 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 2: three years ago. 65 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, we'll talk about the Bills, I'm sure plenty today, 66 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 4: But yeah, when it comes to overall what we've seen 67 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 4: offensively from a lot of quarterbacks, a lot of offenses 68 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 4: around the league, there have been changes. It does feel 69 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 4: like the defenses are catching up. I think one of 70 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 4: the biggest reasons why it seems so different is because 71 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 4: all of a sudden, all of these Hall of Fame 72 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 4: quarterbacks that we're sort of loitering around offenses for about 73 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 4: a decade and a half to two decades are gone. 74 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 4: There's no Brady, there's no Rivers, there's no Roethlisberger, there's 75 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 4: no Manning. There's no Manning, you know. Ye Eli may 76 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 4: also end up being a high or excuse me, Heisman 77 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 4: in the Hall of Fame one day. There's no Drew Brees, 78 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. So all of a sudden, 79 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 4: you have about six to ten Hall of famers. 80 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: Who we got used to seeing out there. 81 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 4: Every single Philip Rivers, who's you know a maybe Hall 82 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 4: of Famer, probably not, but you know, Matt Ryan, like, 83 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 4: there were so many passers who you could lean on 84 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 4: as starters during their times, and that has kind of 85 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,160 Speaker 4: gone away. We've very much so shifted to much simpler 86 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:33,919 Speaker 4: offenses as a results of quarterbacks immediately playing in the 87 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 4: NFL getting very little weight time before they have to 88 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 4: man the roster and be the leader of the team. 89 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 4: And then also a lot of these college offenses are 90 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 4: pretty simple and they have to dumb down the whole 91 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,840 Speaker 4: system at the NFL level to get it to work. 92 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 4: And defenses are starting to catch up. 93 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 1: All right. 94 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 2: A couple of things right off the bat. The Eagles 95 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 2: a three and out on their opening drive. They are 96 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 2: hosting the Browns. You tell you about a coach in trouble, 97 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 2: and Nick Sirianni loses at home today to the Browns. 98 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:03,719 Speaker 2: He could in serious trouble against a Browns team that 99 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 2: because they're paying their quarterback a whole lot of money, 100 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 2: they're just continuing to throw to Shaun Watson out there 101 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 2: as bad as he has been. Meanwhile, right now, the 102 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 2: Texans were in a great position on their opening drive 103 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 2: against the Patriots. However, penalty has moved them back, so 104 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 2: we're keeping an eye on their opening drive. And I 105 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,359 Speaker 2: want to talk about what happened with the Jets this 106 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 2: week and the firing of Robert Salah and obviously Hacka 107 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 2: being demoted. I like, he'll keep his title as offensive coordinator, 108 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 2: but his duties will change. In other words, he has 109 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 2: literally nothing to do because he will not be calling 110 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 2: places for the Jets. But you know, Rich I've been 111 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,039 Speaker 2: saying this. You guys have been fighting back on me. 112 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,480 Speaker 2: I know what my eyeballs tell me. The Aaron Rodgers 113 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 2: that we last saw at the peak of his career 114 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 2: when he won his second of two consecutive MVP Awards 115 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty one does not exist anymore. I mean, 116 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 2: I understand that the running game has been not good, 117 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 2: the play calling has been bad. Maybe the receivers are 118 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 2: dropping balls, but Aaron Rodgers is making throws that I 119 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 2: did not see when he was an MVP Hall of 120 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,799 Speaker 2: Fame quarterback. To me, as he approaches his forty first 121 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 2: birthday in a couple of months, that Aaron Rodgers is 122 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 2: gone forever. So you know, the Jets can make all 123 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,840 Speaker 2: these changes. They can fire their head coach. Salah is 124 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 2: a terrible coach to begin with, but fine, you fire him, 125 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 2: but keep in mind this. Only one team has made 126 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 2: a change at coach and gotten into the postseason, and 127 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 2: that was the Raiders with Bascatcha a couple of years ago. 128 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,720 Speaker 2: And of course Gruden wasn't fired. He resigned under under 129 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 2: saying no team has won their division making a coaching 130 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 2: change during the season. So the idea that this change 131 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 2: is going to ignite the Jets, to me, is fantasyland. 132 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,600 Speaker 2: It doesn't bear any fruit. And the problem is is 133 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 2: that they have a quarterback who's going to be destined 134 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 2: for a first ballot Hall of Fame status who is 135 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:02,839 Speaker 2: no longer that quarterback. 136 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 4: Well, let's slow down on a lot of this, because 137 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 4: I'm not as hyperbolic as you are. Typically there are 138 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 4: times where we agree, but I think it's either times 139 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 4: where you tame some of your knee jerk, slapstick reactions 140 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 4: to some of these things, and there are times where 141 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 4: maybe I'm a little bit over my skis on certain things, 142 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 4: and that's where we tend to meet in the middle. 143 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:24,239 Speaker 1: With the Jets. 144 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 4: We're not going to meet in the middle here because 145 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 4: I really think we need to let this Bake. The 146 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 4: Jets have been like incredibly undisciplined. They have almost as 147 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 4: many penalties as they do have points in the first 148 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 4: quarter of games. They're slow starters, so they have fourteen 149 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 4: points in the first quarter through five weeks of the 150 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 4: season entering this game against the Bills, and they have 151 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 4: thirteen penalties in the first quarter. They shoot themselves in 152 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 4: the foot. Also, you mentioned it Robert Sala great defensive coordinator, 153 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 4: not a good head coach, and that was proven during 154 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,559 Speaker 4: his short stint as a head coach with the Jets. 155 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: And I'm not even saying that it'll always be that way. 156 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 4: Maybe it looks better a second time around for Roberts 157 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 4: all elsewhere. This was not the situation. It wasn't the time. 158 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 4: These weren't the players, whatever the situation. And by the way, 159 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 4: Nathaniel Hackett now I think the jury's out on so 160 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 4: he's been replaced as a play caller by Todd Downing, 161 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:21,239 Speaker 4: who is going to try to get this thing kicked 162 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 4: in the right direction. And to your point about winning 163 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 4: the division, the Jets were never gonna win the division, 164 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 4: you know, I mean on paper, they weren't. 165 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 1: When you looked at it. 166 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 4: The Bills and the Dolphins both on paper, seemed like 167 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 4: better teams with them than they were. 168 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:36,200 Speaker 1: And that's a lot to contend with. 169 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 4: Maybe a wildcard team, right maybe they could sneak in 170 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 4: with the double digit season if they get that many wins. 171 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 4: You look at Aaron Rodgers. Yes, the early returns have 172 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 4: been poor, but now I'm not willing to say he's done. 173 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 4: I'm not willing to say it's over. I'm gonna let 174 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 4: this bake. I'm gonna give this a couple of weeks 175 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 4: with the new changes, like we saw a couple of 176 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 4: years ago with the Raiders after Gruden was let go, 177 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,679 Speaker 4: Rich Bassacia took a team that was left for dead 178 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 4: and he improved them all the way to a wild 179 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 4: cart contender in Las Vegas, and they were able to 180 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:09,719 Speaker 4: go toe to toe with the Bengals all the way 181 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 4: till overtime and lost a nail bier. So I'm not 182 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 4: gonna say the Jets can't do anything this season. 183 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: I want to wait and see. 184 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 2: All right, well, I've made up my mind. Now, by 185 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 2: the way, we have our first score of the day 186 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 2: and Baker Mayfield no doubt about his status right now. 187 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 2: Touchdown passed through Chris Godwin six for six sixty two 188 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 2: yards on that opening drive. So the Bucks take the 189 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 2: seven to nothing lead on the road against the Saints, 190 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 2: and the Bucks trying to take firm control right now 191 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 2: that NFC South. Meanwhile, the Texans have a first and 192 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 2: goal at New England's one yard line. The Patriots, after 193 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 2: that upset win in their first game against the Bengals, 194 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 2: are staring at the possibility of a fifth straight loss. 195 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: And c J. 196 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 2: Stroud and the Texans again when today get to five 197 00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 2: and one, they're sitting pretty especially in a division where 198 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 2: the Jaguars have collapsed. We don't know about the Colt 199 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 2: situation right now. By the way, if you don't. 200 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,559 Speaker 4: Know what the Patriots though, they they're starting their number 201 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 4: three overall pick, yes, Drake May. So that's really the 202 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 4: storyline of that game. And I do understand the Texans 203 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 4: being four and one. 204 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 1: CJ. 205 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 4: Stroud, in his sophomore effort making good on the promise 206 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 4: that he is the franchise quarterback, very curious to see 207 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 4: how May looks against the talented Houston Texas week we. 208 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 2: Talked about this sold Drake May situation, like when is 209 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 2: the right time? Is this the right team for Drake 210 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,439 Speaker 2: May to make his debut against. 211 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 4: Hmmm, is it the right time? You know what, I 212 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 4: would have probably waited another. 213 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: Week this this, this schedule gets a lot softer, but 214 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 1: maybe they want you know what, I'd have to look 215 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:44,959 Speaker 1: ahead at their schedule again. 216 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 4: Do they have a road game coming up next? Because 217 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 4: if they're on the road, maybe that No, they're hosting 218 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 4: the Jaguars. Yes, so I I mean I probably would 219 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 4: have wait waited a week. Yeah, had him start against 220 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 4: the Jaguars, then you host the Jets next after that, 221 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 4: then you go on the road to the Titans. Then 222 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,319 Speaker 4: you go on the road to Chicago, so you get 223 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 4: two home games still and you get two road games 224 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 4: against lesser competition before hosting the Rams. So the schedule 225 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 4: gets much easier after this game. But maybe they wanted 226 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 4: to test him against a better defense. 227 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 2: All right, Commanders opening drive get down to the thirteen 228 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 2: yard line and then Jaden Daniels gets sacked for a 229 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 2: twelve yard loss on third down, so the Commanders have 230 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 2: a fourth to nineteen now at the Ravens twenty five 231 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,959 Speaker 2: yard line. This is sort of a how good are 232 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 2: the Commanders? Obviously they're an underdog on the road, against 233 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:40,679 Speaker 2: the Ravens as well they should be, but can they 234 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 2: be competitive in this game and hold their own The 235 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 2: field goal of tip is good, so the Commanders take 236 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 2: the early three out the league.

Wow. Yeah. 271 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 4: The Saints, it's interesting, right. They started off so so 272 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 4: promising this season. It looked like everything that was ahead 273 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,200 Speaker 4: of Derek Carr and this offense. But they've been rattled 274 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 4: a little bit, dropping to two and three on the season. 275 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:50,599 Speaker 4: The Buccaneers, though, after the heartbreaking overtime loss to the Falcons, 276 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 4: they're trying to avoid an zero to two start in 277 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 4: division in the NFC South. So getting a couple of 278 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 4: points on the board to start the game, even if 279 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 4: you're your defense, who cares points on the road, are 280 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:04,559 Speaker 4: good points. 281 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:04,719 Speaker 1: All right? 282 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:06,959 Speaker 2: Packers have taken a seven to nothing lead at home 283 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 2: against the Cardinals. Jordan loved to Jayden Reid touchdown pass. 284 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:15,440 Speaker 2: So early seven to nothing lead for the Packers in 285 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 2: this game. You know, Rich, we talk about week six, right, 286 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 2: and suddenly you know, the boy there's you know, early 287 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 2: on it's like, all right, two and one versus one 288 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 2: and two, But when you're talking about four and two 289 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 2: versus two and four, now, all of a sudden you 290 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 2: can see, okay, now we're now you start having to 291 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 2: you know, sort of taking shape, like, okay, which teams 292 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 2: are looking good? I mean the Bears are a prime example, right, 293 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 2: the Bears are sitting of four and two. And we 294 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 2: talked about this before the season that Eberflus was sort 295 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 2: of on the list of the favorite to be the 296 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 2: NFL Coach of the year. He was also the favorite 297 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 2: to be the first coach fired. Well, he won't be 298 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 2: the first coach fire because Robert Salas already got that one, 299 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 2: but all of a sudd with an improving Caleb Williams, 300 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 2: you start looking at the Bears say all right for 301 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 2: it too, at least right now they look legit. 302 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: They do. 303 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 4: And it's interesting timing because you start thinking about the 304 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 4: Packers looking a little shaky to start their season. You 305 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 4: think about, honestly, how monstrous the NFC North is, with 306 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 4: both the Vikings and the Detroit Lions. The only way 307 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 4: you're gonna be able to keep pace for the next 308 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 4: foreseeable future is if you do something special. And Caleb 309 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 4: Williams is a special talent. Is he gonna have an 310 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 4: amazing year? Is this going to be a standout year 311 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 4: like c J. 312 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 1: Strodd? 313 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 4: I don't know. I think it could be. I think 314 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 4: he could mature into a year like that. It wasn't 315 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 4: exactly a no brainer at week six that CJ. Stroud 316 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 4: was going to turn in one of the best rookie 317 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 4: seasons from a starting quarterback taken in the first round. 318 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: It wasn't you know. 319 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 4: As we let the season bake, we started realizing, oh, no, 320 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 4: this guy has the goods. He's playing with injured receivers. 321 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 4: He's playing with receivers who are frankly and I'm being 322 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 4: you know, I'm not trying to be unkind here, but 323 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 4: where nobody's in the NFL until they had a breakout 324 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 4: year with c J. 325 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 1: Stroud. We'll see if Kleb Williams can do the same 326 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 1: thing with Chicago. 327 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 2: All Right, Ravens have tied up their game with the 328 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 2: Commanders three to three. In that game, and then opening 329 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 2: drive for Drake May making his season debut for the Patriots. 330 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 2: They ran three plays, two runs for one yard and 331 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 2: an incomplete pass, so they have one total yard and 332 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 2: now the Texans have a first and ten at the 333 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 2: New England seventeen yard line. As CJ. Stroud is on 334 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 2: fire to start this game six of eight sixty six yards. 335 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 2: He already has a touchdown pass to Dell that you 336 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 2: just heard, and they're knocking on the door once again. 337 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 2: Of all my preseason predictions, one could still hold true, 338 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 2: and that's the Patriots are the worst team in the NFL. 339 00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 2: I mean, Jacksonville right now looks like the worst team. 340 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 2: But yeah, yeah, you know, when it's all said and done, 341 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 2: this Patriots team they're just thin on talent. I mean, 342 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 2: they just don't have a lot of game changers. They 343 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,120 Speaker 2: have any game changers. I mean, their defense is certainly 344 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 2: at the very worst average, but offensively, I mean they're 345 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 2: just challenged. 346 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 1: They're challenged, there's no question. 347 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 4: But hey, you know what, a good quarterback can turn 348 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 4: around an offense real quick. Yeah, and we've seen that 349 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:28,680 Speaker 4: many times droughout NFL history. 350 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:30,400 Speaker 1: You know, when you gave. 351 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers very little to work with in terms of 352 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 4: receivers during his tenure in Green Bay, you know, I mean, 353 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,360 Speaker 4: he would turn those lemons and he would make some lemonade. 354 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 4: Same thing with Tom Brady with his time with the 355 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 4: New England Patriots. There are many times where people looked 356 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 4: around the offensive roster and said. 357 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 1: Who are you leaning on this year? How is this 358 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:50,160 Speaker 1: gonna work? Exactly? 359 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 4: And then boom, they're back in the AFC Championship Game. 360 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 4: And a little bit of that has happened with the 361 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 4: Kansas City Chiefs. Now Mahomes has always had Travis Kelcey, 362 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 4: but when they got rid of Tyreek Hill, all of 363 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 4: a sudden in comes a couple of faces that nobody 364 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 4: really knew we're going to help out or be able 365 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,119 Speaker 4: to help out as much as they did, and they 366 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 4: end up winning a Super Bowl that year. So here's 367 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 4: the deal, Drake May who knows the story's unwritten. But 368 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 4: if he's a talented quarterback, just like CJ. Stroud in 369 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,919 Speaker 4: the Houston Texans a year ago, we're going to see fireworks. 370 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 4: It just all comes down to did the Patriots select 371 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 4: the right guy? 372 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 1: Is he ready to play? 373 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 2: All right? So Texans get a defensive passing a friends 374 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 2: call against New England. So they've reset first and goal 375 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 2: at the New England ten yard line, leading seven to nothing. Meanwhile, 376 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:40,640 Speaker 2: the Titans trailing the Colts at home seven to nothing. 377 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:43,440 Speaker 2: You have a first and goal at the Indianapolis nine 378 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 2: yard line. And when you look at the Colts, I 379 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 2: don't know. They resemble last year's Cleveland Browns. Why because 380 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,400 Speaker 2: they have Joe Flacco a quarterback. Would that be unbelievable? Seriously, 381 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:56,400 Speaker 2: if Joe Flacco, after leading the Browns into the playoffs 382 00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 2: a year ago, a year later, would lead the Colts 383 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 2: into the playoffs. 384 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 1: It would be insane. 385 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,400 Speaker 2: When he's considering that at the start of last year, 386 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 2: basically still at this time we are talking right now, 387 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,919 Speaker 2: a year ago, he was watching games from the couch, 388 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 2: probably listening to red Zone Radium. 389 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:18,360 Speaker 4: Most likely I would guarantee because everybody does. Look, this 390 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:22,680 Speaker 4: matchup is featuring one of the most stingy defenses going 391 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:24,439 Speaker 4: against one of the worst in the NFL. 392 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 1: Right now, the. 393 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:28,159 Speaker 4: Titans have allowed a league low two hundred and forty 394 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 4: three point eight yards per game behind this unit who 395 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:32,920 Speaker 4: they've invested into. 396 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:33,439 Speaker 1: The Colts. 397 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:37,640 Speaker 4: Meanwhile, they're yielding a league high four hundred and nineteen 398 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:41,880 Speaker 4: yards per game off So in order for Joe Flacco 399 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 4: to have success, they have to unleash him, like he 400 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:49,479 Speaker 4: has to be insanely accurate with the football, and so 401 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 4: far he has been. I mean, the last game out, 402 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:57,200 Speaker 4: Flacco was on fire. It's it's interesting, though, you're leaning 403 00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 4: on an old guy, you know, a guy who potent 404 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,399 Speaker 4: could be injury prone if he gets roughed up. Although 405 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 4: he's playing behind a very talented offensive line group in Indianapolis. 406 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,880 Speaker 4: But that is some of the concern here. Is Okay, 407 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 4: so you're already onto Flacco and that is what you're 408 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 4: holding onto for dear life. But then you start thinking, like, okay, 409 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 4: if Flacco goes down and you're onto your third string quarterback, 410 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:22,120 Speaker 4: who who knows who they. 411 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:22,639 Speaker 1: Put in next? 412 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 4: Shane Steichen and this crew everybody starts turning their attention 413 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 4: back to Anthony Richardson and saying, hey, why did you 414 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 4: guys spend that pick and all this money getting Anthony Richardson. 415 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 4: Clearly he's not helping the team over his first two 416 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 4: seasons as a first round quarterback selected. So what is 417 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 4: going to be the future? Because right now it's getting 418 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:44,440 Speaker 4: pretty bleak. But that hasn't happened yet. Joe Flacco's elite, 419 00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:48,199 Speaker 4: and who knows, maybe he will lead the Cults to 420 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 4: some AFC South prominence. 421 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:52,879 Speaker 2: All right, dog game of the day so far, no score, 422 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 2: Browns Eagles did. John Watson has been bad as usual, 423 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 2: three or four twenty two yards eel has been sacked 424 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 2: twice for fifteens and losses, so they have a net 425 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 2: seven yards passing. But he's a juggernaut compared to Jalen 426 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 2: Hurts oh for five passing to start the game. 427 00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 1: Wow. 428 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts, who we saw in the Super Bowl less 429 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 2: than two years ago outplay Patrick Mahomes except for one 430 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 2: unfortunate fumble that cost them that game against the Chiefs. 431 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 2: He was the talk of that Super Bowl. And here 432 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 2: we are they're playing the Cleveland Browns and again the 433 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,919 Speaker 2: Browns have a really good defense, but Jalen Hurts oh 434 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 2: for five passing. 435 00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 4: And speaking of which browns aj Brown is back with 436 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 4: the Eagles after the hamstring injury. He was expected to 437 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:40,920 Speaker 4: play for the first time. The Eagles scored thirty four 438 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 4: points in their opener against the Packers, and then in 439 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 4: the three games without Brown average seventeen points. So I 440 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 4: think you understand how valuable wide receivers are in this 441 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 4: league now. They completely changed the way you have to 442 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 4: defend teams. Also, coming back into the offensive lineup back 443 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:02,160 Speaker 4: from injury, Lane Johnson I tackled DeVante Smith to give 444 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 4: a little bit of Batman and Robin feel back to 445 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 4: this receiving corps for the Philadelphia Eagles, who have looked 446 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 4: bad frankly without them. So, yeah, Steve, I'm with you. 447 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:17,959 Speaker 4: I think I think that Jalen Hurts the jury all 448 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 4: of a sudden feels out on whether or not he's 449 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:21,440 Speaker 4: the franchise guy. 450 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 1: We felt very much so like it was the case. 451 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 2: Then let's former Eagles Fano Benson here. 452 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 6: This is a great day. The Rams aren't playing a. 453 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 1: Former tell yeah, that's right there. 454 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 6: I got to watch Matthew Stafford on TV with Fox 455 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 6: was wonderful if you'd like a good summation of the 456 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 6: mood around Philadelphia Eagles. According to Bo Wolf of All Philly, 457 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 6: Nick Sirianni joined back and forth with two Browns quarterbacks 458 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:45,400 Speaker 6: as his team punts for the second time in its 459 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 6: first two possessions. Things going well here, Yeah, that is 460 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:49,679 Speaker 6: the mood in Philadelphia. 461 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,440 Speaker 2: Well again, if they were to lose today at home 462 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 2: to Deshaun Watson and the Browns, well, there is no 463 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,440 Speaker 2: guarantee that Sirianni will survive. 464 00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:57,919 Speaker 1: You did you? 465 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 6: Did you see his fashion statement today?

I just I don't know. 472 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 2: I don't know. 473 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:19,159 Speaker 6: I mean, I just want to say I'm fired, but 474 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:21,679 Speaker 6: more distance so. 475 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 1: But here's the good news for the Eagles. 476 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:27,159 Speaker 4: Aside from haircuts and electric chairs, Deshaun Watson has a 477 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 4: total QBR of twenty one this season, which is the 478 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 4: fourth worst total QBR. Get this, in the team's first 479 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 4: five teams of a season, amongst the four hundred and 480 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 4: eighty qbs to start all five games since the QBR 481 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 4: metric was invented, Deshaun Watson is playing historically poor football. Yes, 482 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:53,439 Speaker 4: I mean if the if the Eagles lose to the Browns, 483 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,159 Speaker 4: there's something seriously wrong with the Eagles. 484 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 1: Let's put it that way. 485 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 2: I would say that.

You know, Jordan 535 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 8: Love connecting with Jayden Reid early on. So it's seven 536 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 8: zero five minutes to go in the first quarter. The 537 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:58,360 Speaker 8: Colts and the Titans are tied at seven apiece. Joe 538 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:00,919 Speaker 8: Flacco in for Anthony Richards, who is serving as the 539 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 8: emergency number three quarterback as he continues to rehab that 540 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 8: oblique injury. Joe Flacco already with a touchdown pass to 541 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 8: Josh Downs, but the Titans have responded, so at seven 542 00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 8: to seven, six minutes to go in the first quarter. 543 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:13,640 Speaker 7: All Texans against the Patriots. 544 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 8: C J Strout has already connected with Tank Dell and 545 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,640 Speaker 8: Joe Mixon is back after missing the last couple of weeks, 546 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 8: so the Texans up on the Patriots fourteen zero. Late 547 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,919 Speaker 8: in the first quarter. All Buccaneers against the Saints. Saints 548 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,440 Speaker 8: expect Derek Carr to be out three to four weeks 549 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 8: with this oblique injury, so Spencer Rattler may be in 550 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:33,199 Speaker 8: there for a little bit. Wide receiver Chrystal Lave has 551 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,199 Speaker 8: gone to the locker room. He's being evaluated for a concussion. 552 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:40,120 Speaker 8: The Buccaneers Baker Mayfield connecting with Chris Godwin Antoine Winfield 553 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 8: Junior with a fifty eight yard scoop and score. So 554 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 8: the score right now seventeen zero against the Saints Eagles, 555 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 8: Browns scoreless, three minutes to go in the first quarter. 556 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:50,159 Speaker 7: The Commanders and. 557 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 8: The Ravens some of the strongest offensive teams that we 558 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 8: have seen so far. 559 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 7: Three to three. 560 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,200 Speaker 8: They're about to end the first quarter, so all of 561 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,879 Speaker 8: a sudden, they're a defensive team. 562 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 2: Wow, well I know wow. 563 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:04,479 Speaker 3: Oh. 564 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 8: And of course the Bears defeated the Jags in London 565 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,400 Speaker 8: thirty five sixteen. Chicago is now foreign to Caleb Williams 566 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 8: four touchdown passes, feeling himself. 567 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 7: Yeah, I love it. He's on my fantasy. 568 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:16,119 Speaker 1: Yeah he is. 569 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:20,199 Speaker 2: He is looking good right now. And Trevor Lawrence is not. 570 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,439 Speaker 2: And Peterson I would be stuck. 571 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:23,640 Speaker 10: Wow. 572 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:27,159 Speaker 2: If it doesn't happen now, yeah, yeah, it's no. 573 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 8: Boy now, especially because we talked about it yesterday, Steve. 574 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 7: The Jags are like, that's their home. It's like a 575 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 7: home game for them in London. 576 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 2: Right, they always play every game here in London, and 577 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 2: for that embarrassing performance today. Yeah, that's that's usually a 578 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 2: ticket out of town. By the way, we do have 579 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:43,440 Speaker 2: ODM Moore. 580 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 7: No, I don't, oh you don't. 581 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 2: You take a breather for a second here once again, 582 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 2: this is Right Zone Radio. Steve Harbin and Rich Ornberger 583 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 2: with you. We do have a completed pass courtesy of 584 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts So his first completed pass of the game 585 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:02,040 Speaker 2: Eagles and Brown's score with two minutes to go in 586 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 2: the first quarter. You know, the Saints at home. This 587 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:10,119 Speaker 2: was a question today about Spencer Ratler at quarterback for 588 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 2: the Saints today, Rich with the Derek Carr out. As 589 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 2: you mentioned earlier, the first two games, they were the 590 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:20,240 Speaker 2: best team in the NFL. Two games into the season, 591 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,920 Speaker 2: the Saints were the best team in the NFL. They 592 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:26,240 Speaker 2: haven't won since, and so it's it's a reality check 593 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:32,479 Speaker 2: time for them. I remember during the preseason Rattler played well, yes, 594 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:37,120 Speaker 2: and Saints fans are screaming forget Derek Carr. Put in Rattler, 595 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 2: and then those first two games, Derek Carr looks like MVP. 596 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 2: Well not so much anymore, you know. 597 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 4: You know, what's another storyline that we do have to 598 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 4: comment on. Because many of the Buccaneers players did. Is 599 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 4: the fact that Hurricane Milton obviously made landfall on the 600 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 4: West Bank of Florida and ravaged a lot of the 601 00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 4: people who root for the Buccaneers and left a lot 602 00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 4: of people without power, a lot of people lost their lives, 603 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 4: a lot of people needed to be rescued, and so 604 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 4: as a result, there's a little bit more to this 605 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 4: storyline for Buccaneers players, you know, because they know that 606 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 4: they represent hope and see this and it's odd that 607 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 4: they're playing the Saints because the Saints during Hurricane Katrina 608 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 4: and the aftermath that followed, they ended up winning the 609 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 4: Super Bowl and years later, but do you remember how 610 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 4: impactful that was for not only the players. Obviously for 611 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 4: the players you win the Super Bowl, it's great, but 612 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:38,480 Speaker 4: for the city of New Orleans, for the people rooted 613 00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 4: on for the Saints, like it became more than just football. 614 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 4: And I'm not saying this is going to be the 615 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,440 Speaker 4: same effect, but certainly it came up in conversation before 616 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 4: the game kicked off, and I think there's a little 617 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 4: extra gusto that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are playing with today. 618 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 2: I don't remember if this was exactly the billboard. I 619 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 2: do remember coming into New Orleans after the Katrina situation, 620 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 2: like you said, eventually winning the Super Bowl, and there 621 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 2: was a billboard that I saw. It was something like 622 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 2: the Aints no more right, right, you know? 623 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 1: And it did. 624 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 2: It completely changed the dynamic not only of the Saints 625 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 2: franchised but that entire city. So you're right, you know, again, 626 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 2: our thoughts and prayers with everyone that's been savage by 627 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 2: these back to back hurricanes throughout the South there. It's 628 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 2: been absolutely unreal to see what we've all seen in 629 00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 2: the coverage of those hurricanes. Packers have the ball right now. 630 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 2: They're in Arizona Territory and trying to increase their lead. Packers, 631 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 2: you know, they looked a little indifferent early, but at 632 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 2: home today against the Cardinals, a pack of victory gets 633 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 2: them to four and two, and then all of a sudden, 634 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 2: you look at this NFC North. This is the best 635 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 2: division in football. You got the underf Vikings, you got 636 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 2: the Lions, who may be on paper the best team 637 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,040 Speaker 2: in the NFL, and then you have the Bears at 638 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 2: four and two, and the Packers could be foreign too. 639 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 1: It's crazy. 640 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 4: They're lapping the field Jordan Love has already thrown five 641 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 4: interceptions so far this season, so he has gotten off 642 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 4: to a shaky start with the knee injury he's come 643 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 4: back from. Look the way it feels to me is 644 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 4: this is truly the first adversity that Jordan Love has 645 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 4: had to overcome in his young NFL career, and so 646 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 4: we'll see how it looks against a pretty talented Cardinals defense. 647 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 4: If he can get this victory, you know, that means 648 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 4: that he has the ability to shake off the circumstances 649 00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 4: and find a way to win it. It's never perfect. 650 00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:50,480 Speaker 4: I shouldn't say that, And it's not that it is 651 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 4: imperfect that we should be critical of any of these quarterbacks, 652 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 4: but at such an important position, especially when a team 653 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 4: commits the kind of money that they've us committed to 654 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 4: Jordan Love, you become more than just a quarterback. You're 655 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 4: not just a player. You're now the face of a franchise. 656 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 4: And so if the Green Bay Packers are going to 657 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 4: have success, yeah, you could talk about Matt Lafleur, and 658 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 4: you could blame the running back situation, or the receivers 659 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 4: or the defense let us down. But we all know 660 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 4: this league now all roads go back to the QB. 661 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 4: So this is gonna be a big bounce back for 662 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 4: Jordan Love if, after some early stumbles and absences due 663 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 4: to injury, he could get this win and advance the 664 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 4: Packers to four and two. 665 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 2: Well, thing we're guaranteed this week is that we'll still 666 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:34,240 Speaker 2: have an undefeated team after Week six because both undefeated 667 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 2: teams have a bye this week. The Chiefs and the 668 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 2: Vikings are off this week, as are the Rams and Dolphins. 669 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 2: All Right, we're heading to the end of the first 670 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 2: quarters into second quarter actions six games around the NFL. 671 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 2: As always, we are the place to be to update 672 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 2: you on everything you need to know.

That game just into the start of the 680 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 2: second quarter. Once again, this is Red Zone Radio. Steve 681 00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 2: hartin Rich Ormberger with you. We are live from the 682 00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 2: Tirerack dot Com studios. So let's update you on the 683 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 2: other games. Colts and Titans are tied at seven. Just 684 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 2: starting the second quarter there, Texans with a fourteen nothing 685 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 2: lead on the road against the Patriots. Eleven minutes to 686 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 2: go in the half. There, started the second quarter, and 687 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 2: the Saints have just gotten on the board with a 688 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 2: field goal. They still trail the Buccaneers seventeen to three. 689 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 2: The Eagles lead the Commanders. Excuse me, the Eagles lead 690 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 2: the Browns three to nothing. Twelve minutes to go in 691 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 2: the half there, and the Commanders and Ravens are tied 692 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 2: to three. Now, this was a game where a lot 693 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:00,640 Speaker 2: of people thought we were going to to see a 694 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 2: multitude of points. Rich Baltimore coming off that shootout victory 695 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 2: against the Bengals. Obviously, this Commander's offense has been pretty prolific. 696 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 2: Three three, eleven minutes to go in the half. What's 697 00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:13,760 Speaker 2: going on there? 698 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 1: Isn't that always how it goes. 699 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 4: Whenever we think we're gonna see fireworks, all of a sudden, 700 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 4: it starts looking more and more like a heavyweight prize fight. 701 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 1: Right. 702 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:27,879 Speaker 4: You know, in the heavyweight boxing world, everybody knows what 703 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 4: you're excited for. Knockouts, right, the knockout power heavyweights obviously 704 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 4: have a harder time getting out of the way of punches. 705 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:38,919 Speaker 4: So when we're everybody's all excited for a big heavyweight fight, 706 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,400 Speaker 4: you know you're expecting to see fireworks. And then for 707 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 4: the first two to three rounds, it kind of feels 708 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:46,360 Speaker 4: like the fighters are circling each other and trying to 709 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,480 Speaker 4: figure each other out because they know how detrimental mistakes 710 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:49,759 Speaker 4: will be. 711 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 1: That's what this looks like to me. 712 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:54,760 Speaker 4: I think Baltimore and Washington both are playing a little timid, 713 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:56,960 Speaker 4: They're playing a little shy. It sort of feels like 714 00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,880 Speaker 4: they're choosing when to throw their haymakers. I'm expecting some 715 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:01,360 Speaker 4: fireworks in the second half. 716 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 2: Well, one guy is having a good game for Baltimore's 717 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 2: eight flowers right now, five catches eighty eight yards already, Wow, 718 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 2: in the first half of this game. By the way, 719 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:13,879 Speaker 2: yesterday with Montsey and I, I added the under on 720 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 2: this game, and so I did pick the under on 721 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:21,800 Speaker 2: this game. So I don't probably here was my thinking 722 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:24,279 Speaker 2: on it seriously about this game, because you got the 723 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,920 Speaker 2: commanders on the road, and I thought, look, let's be 724 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 2: fair to the commander. This is a no knock, is 725 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:31,719 Speaker 2: what they've done. So far Jaden Daniels. But this is 726 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 2: the Ravens, right and you know this is an experienced 727 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:38,839 Speaker 2: team defense, and I thought that at the very least 728 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 2: Jayden Danils would struggle some today. I thought though, that 729 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,839 Speaker 2: the Ravens were going to score plenty against the Commanders, 730 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 2: and so far they haven't, although they are now in 731 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:51,160 Speaker 2: a position where they have a second and ten at 732 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:54,480 Speaker 2: the Commander's fourteen yard line. So again, three three, nine 733 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:57,719 Speaker 2: minutes to go in the game. There, I'm watching this 734 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 2: Eagles Browns game, as ugly as it is, and I'm 735 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:07,840 Speaker 2: watching Kevin Stefanski on the sidelines and he's going nuts. 736 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:10,400 Speaker 2: I mean, he really is. This guy was the NFL 737 00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 2: Coach of the Air last year and has done a 738 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:16,600 Speaker 2: pretty good job since taken over as the Cleveland Browns coach. 739 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 2: But it's got to be frustrating for Stefanski when it 740 00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 2: seems to be ownership hell bent on keeping DeShawn Watson 741 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:28,920 Speaker 2: in a quarterback. And this stat that I just saw 742 00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:34,239 Speaker 2: is mind blowing. Through their first five games, twenty six 743 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:38,520 Speaker 2: sacks already. That's the most sacks of a Browns quarterback 744 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 2: through the first five games since nineteen eighty four. Stat 745 00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 2: forty years ago. 746 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:47,239 Speaker 1: That stack can be misleading and now can be. 747 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 2: But I mean, it's either your quarterback ain't getting on 748 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,239 Speaker 2: the ball too long or your offensive line sucks. But 749 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:53,879 Speaker 2: either way it's a bad stat. 750 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:54,880 Speaker 1: So consider the source. 751 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 4: I'm a former offensive lineman, so maybe I'm rushing to 752 00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,640 Speaker 4: the defense of an offensive line. But yes, it can 753 00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:05,400 Speaker 4: be because your offensive line is not good, not playing good, 754 00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:09,920 Speaker 4: or not understanding the concepts of pass protections and they're 755 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:13,120 Speaker 4: letting too many free hitters go in the backfield or 756 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:14,800 Speaker 4: not getting to their responsibilities. 757 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 1: Or it could be very much so on the quarterback. 758 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:21,360 Speaker 4: And not just in terms of where he's going with 759 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 4: the football and holding on to it too long. It 760 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,880 Speaker 4: could also be situations with the pass protection where he 761 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 4: isn't communicating things with the offensive line and there are 762 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:33,840 Speaker 4: too many opportunities for defenses that shouldn't be getting to 763 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:37,480 Speaker 4: Deshaun Watson getting to Deshaun Watson because he's not taking 764 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:40,239 Speaker 4: care of his problems, not throwing hot when he's supposed to, 765 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:43,360 Speaker 4: meaning when there's an extra person who you can't account 766 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 4: for in your protection package, knowing where to go with 767 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,840 Speaker 4: the football and doing it immediately. This stress is a 768 00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:52,320 Speaker 4: defense out. This lowers their pressure rate if they're smart, 769 00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 4: because if you're beating their pressure and they keep going 770 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:57,600 Speaker 4: to that, well, well you're gonna keep having success against 771 00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 4: that defense. And then some of the blame can be 772 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:03,160 Speaker 4: on the head coach. So if you have a quarterback 773 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:04,920 Speaker 4: who's not playing well in. 774 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:09,239 Speaker 1: A system, it's a bad system. Okay, I understand. 775 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,799 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, some of these quarterbacks are getting paid him, 776 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:14,239 Speaker 4: you know, tens and tens and tens of millions of 777 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,840 Speaker 4: dollars per year, and Deshaun Watson's one of them. But 778 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:20,239 Speaker 4: if you have a great system that a quarterback is 779 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,920 Speaker 4: playing poorly in, you don't have a great system. 780 00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:24,040 Speaker 1: You have a bad system. 781 00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:28,279 Speaker 4: So if that's the issue, if Deshaun Watson's not understanding 782 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:30,600 Speaker 4: the Stefanski system, well. 783 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:31,680 Speaker 2: Guess whose fault that is. 784 00:38:32,239 --> 00:38:35,920 Speaker 1: It's it's Kevin Stefanski's fault to a certain extent. So 785 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:38,000 Speaker 1: he's got to find a way to meet him in 786 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 1: the middle, find out what his strengths are and get 787 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:44,319 Speaker 1: to those strengths. Otherwise his job is in just as 788 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:46,239 Speaker 1: much jeopard as Deshaun Watson's job. 789 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,960 Speaker 2: All Right, we had a pass interference call against the 790 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:53,719 Speaker 2: Commanders that put the Ravens in scoring position and they 791 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:56,560 Speaker 2: have just scored. I missed the score, which how did 792 00:38:56,560 --> 00:39:00,400 Speaker 2: they scare it? Okay, so the extra is. 793 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,239 Speaker 4: Good, which, by the way, that makes a lot of 794 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:04,840 Speaker 4: sense because one of the biggest storylines coming in is 795 00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 4: Washington does not. 796 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:07,040 Speaker 1: Stop the run. 797 00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:10,920 Speaker 4: They are near the bottom in yards per carry allowed, 798 00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:13,920 Speaker 4: They're near the bottom and yards per game allowed on 799 00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:16,800 Speaker 4: the on the ground. It's terrible timing to play against 800 00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:20,040 Speaker 4: a Baltimore offense because they're just not going to be 801 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 4: able to stop Derek Henry and Lamar Jackson. 802 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 2: All right, ten to three, now, Ravens a lead of 803 00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:27,680 Speaker 2: the Commanders in that game. The Eagles are on the 804 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:30,000 Speaker 2: move right now. They actually had a big was that 805 00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:32,520 Speaker 2: kal Katara? Who was that that caught that pass? Yeah, 806 00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:34,839 Speaker 2: Gran calcater all right, so he had a thirty five 807 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:38,719 Speaker 2: yard recept, thirty four yard reception. As the Eagles now 808 00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:41,840 Speaker 2: are in Browns territory, leading this game by a score 809 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,360 Speaker 2: of three to nothing. And if you run a es, 810 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:47,120 Speaker 2: this game has been that ugly so far with these 811 00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:50,760 Speaker 2: two teams. Though after his zero for five start, Jalen 812 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:53,160 Speaker 2: Hartz is now four for his last five, four for 813 00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 2: ten in the game. All right, we are heading toward 814 00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:58,239 Speaker 2: halftime around the NFL. Keep it right here for all 815 00:39:58,239 --> 00:39:59,920 Speaker 2: the latest.

So a couple of things happening right now. 831 00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:46,920 Speaker 2: The Packers are once again well now looking at a 832 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:50,360 Speaker 2: fourth down place. So imagine a field goal attempt, already 833 00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:54,840 Speaker 2: leading the Cardinals fourteen to nothing, and meanwhile Jayden Daniels 834 00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:57,919 Speaker 2: trying to get the Commanders back in it, and they 835 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:03,400 Speaker 2: have got a touchdown. Commanders mclauren on the receiving end 836 00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:06,960 Speaker 2: of a touchdown pass from Jade and Daniels, Sir, they're 837 00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:09,839 Speaker 2: an extra point away from tying up this game rich 838 00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:12,840 Speaker 2: with the Ravens about four minutes to go in the half. 839 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 4: Yeah. 840 00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 1: Jaden Daniels is the Goods. 841 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:19,239 Speaker 4: He was great at LSU in that Heisman effort and 842 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:21,840 Speaker 4: everybody was thinking, well, Kayleb Williams. 843 00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:21,879 Speaker 1: What if? 844 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:23,279 Speaker 2: How will all that? 845 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:26,319 Speaker 4: And it's been Jaden Daniels the whole start of this 846 00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:29,320 Speaker 4: season who's really impressed all of us. Now, it doesn't 847 00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 4: mean that Kayleb Williams hasn't been impressive for the Browns. 848 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:34,799 Speaker 1: He has, but this command of. 849 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:40,280 Speaker 2: Bears, for the guys say for the Browns wish yeah, yeah, yeah, 850 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 2: exactly yeah for the Bears. 851 00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:45,200 Speaker 4: But the Commanders, I think a lot of people with 852 00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 4: the coaching change, it sort of felt like they almost 853 00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 4: settled for dan Quinn, you know, and and I know 854 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:55,239 Speaker 4: that's probably not fair to dan Quinn, but that's what 855 00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 4: it felt like. They had some other interviews, specifically when 856 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:02,799 Speaker 4: they brought in Ben Johnson from the Detroit Lions, the 857 00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:06,680 Speaker 4: offensive coordinator, who turned around and said yeah, never mind 858 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:09,439 Speaker 4: to the Commanders and they end up signing him. They 859 00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:13,279 Speaker 4: draft Jaden Daniels. They have Cliff Kingsbury as if his 860 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:16,239 Speaker 4: offensive coordinator, and everybody was thinking to themselves, how's this 861 00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 4: really gonna work, how's this gonna look? Well, we know 862 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:22,360 Speaker 4: how it's gonna work. Well, we know how it's gonna look. Electric. 863 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:24,400 Speaker 1: Jaden Daniels is real. 864 00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:28,279 Speaker 2: How about this? Saints have a third down right now 865 00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:31,880 Speaker 2: the Tampa twenty. They were down seventeen to nothing and 866 00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:33,800 Speaker 2: now all of a sudden they have the ball down seven. 867 00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:38,399 Speaker 2: So Spencer Rattler has been able to sort of settle down. 868 00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:41,479 Speaker 2: Of course, he is in today for Derek Carr. What's 869 00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:41,960 Speaker 2: going on here? 870 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:42,120 Speaker 1: Bo? 871 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 9: Do we have a little just saying Baker Mayfield got 872 00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 9: picked off to set off the sul. 873 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 2: Run I was wondering how the Saints got the ball back? Okay, 874 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:54,760 Speaker 2: so an interception throw by Mayfield is given the Saints 875 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:56,560 Speaker 2: a golden opportunity and. 876 00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:59,120 Speaker 6: Uh and Mike Evans ran right into the locker room afterwards. 877 00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 6: So this all coming off. 878 00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:03,480 Speaker 9: Rashiji head of course returned a punt for a touchdown too, 879 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 9: because of course he did. 880 00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 2: Okay, well, I mean a. 881 00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 4: Good turners in the league and he's paying it off 882 00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:11,440 Speaker 4: right there, and he's turned into one of the best receivers. 883 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:14,720 Speaker 1: Ye that nobody's talking about. But Rashid Shaheed is great. 884 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:17,239 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, if the Saints were to actually come 885 00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:20,440 Speaker 2: back and win this game at home, suddenly the dynamic 886 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:24,000 Speaker 2: of the NFC South looks completely different, because that means 887 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:25,759 Speaker 2: the Saints to be three and three. Bucks, they're three 888 00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,200 Speaker 2: and three, got the Falcons and oh, that's right, you 889 00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:30,640 Speaker 2: still have Carolina Carolina in that division. 890 00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:33,200 Speaker 9: Yeah, three out of four ain't bad, that's right. 891 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:35,359 Speaker 1: That's right there, all right. 892 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:38,359 Speaker 2: So I wanted to jump ahead for a second here 893 00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:40,520 Speaker 2: on one of the games coming up a little bit 894 00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:44,560 Speaker 2: later on, since Chris is anxious. You have to understand this, Rich. 895 00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:48,240 Speaker 2: It was a bitter day for Chris yesterday. Tigers obviously 896 00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:49,200 Speaker 2: was scooball. 897 00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:49,360 Speaker 1: On the mound. 898 00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:52,040 Speaker 2: He was holding as an understatement. Yeah that you know, 899 00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:55,200 Speaker 2: the Tigers would prevail against the Guardians, and it did 900 00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:57,360 Speaker 2: not happen. So the Guardians move on to play the 901 00:43:57,440 --> 00:44:01,560 Speaker 2: Yankees in the ALCS. But the Lions against the Cowboys. 902 00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:05,839 Speaker 2: Everybody's picking the Lions. The Lions are favored on the road. 903 00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:08,600 Speaker 2: The Cowboys are three and zero. On the road and 904 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:12,759 Speaker 2: owing to at home this year. I said at one 905 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:15,120 Speaker 2: point early in the show that you could almost make 906 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:19,440 Speaker 2: an argument the Lions have the best talent in the NFL. 907 00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:20,240 Speaker 1: Maybe. 908 00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:23,719 Speaker 2: I mean, they don't have a lot of glaring weaknesses 909 00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:26,440 Speaker 2: on this team. Right now, what's your early read on 910 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:28,360 Speaker 2: this Detroit Dallas game? 911 00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:31,480 Speaker 4: I mean my early read is I would be all 912 00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:36,160 Speaker 4: over the Lions too. Look, you know it was probably 913 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:39,480 Speaker 4: the most controversial ending to a game last year when 914 00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:44,879 Speaker 4: Dallas and Detroit played against each other. Dallas beat them 915 00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:49,720 Speaker 4: after that game winning two point conversion by Tyler Decker 916 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:52,960 Speaker 4: was negated because of illegal touching. Do you remember that. 917 00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 4: I mean, so, let's put it this way. You know 918 00:44:57,360 --> 00:45:01,520 Speaker 4: that Detroit is out for blood. Because if there's one 919 00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:05,440 Speaker 4: thing Dan Campbell has done is he's completely changed. 920 00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:07,440 Speaker 1: The ethos of the Lions. 921 00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:11,000 Speaker 4: It's not a team like, hey, where the down trodden 922 00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:15,319 Speaker 4: Lions were America's favorite loser. You know, where the team 923 00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:17,120 Speaker 4: you root for when you don't have a team to 924 00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:20,439 Speaker 4: root for in the in the game where you're like, ah, 925 00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:22,120 Speaker 4: you know what, who wants to root against it? 926 00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:22,480 Speaker 1: No? 927 00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:25,200 Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, this is a completely different look the 928 00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:28,359 Speaker 4: Detroit Lions are dangerous, They're scary. Like you said, they 929 00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:30,759 Speaker 4: don't have many holes. They re signed all of their 930 00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:35,759 Speaker 4: weapons offensively this offseason. They get better with Laporta being 931 00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:38,759 Speaker 4: healthy at some point this season, completely healthy at some 932 00:45:38,840 --> 00:45:42,400 Speaker 4: point this season. I'm I'm I'm excited for the Detroit 933 00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:43,320 Speaker 4: Lions this season. 934 00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:44,319 Speaker 1: And then you look at the. 935 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,880 Speaker 4: Other side and you think about Dallas, Like, what are 936 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:50,200 Speaker 4: your feelings, Steve on the Dallas Cowboys entering this season. 937 00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:51,960 Speaker 1: It's a very different feeling that. 938 00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:57,359 Speaker 2: How we had to win the Super Bowl. Remember this, 939 00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:02,719 Speaker 2: I am on record having the Dallas Cowboys because my 940 00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:06,120 Speaker 2: thinking was, yes, this is a team that's been winning 941 00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:09,560 Speaker 2: what twelve games three consecutive years, you know, and it 942 00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:13,480 Speaker 2: just like the football gods are saying not now, not now, 943 00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:16,480 Speaker 2: not now in that ugly playoff game against the Packers 944 00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:18,960 Speaker 2: a year ago. And I just feel like at some 945 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:22,880 Speaker 2: point things are going to go their way at some point. 946 00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:25,600 Speaker 2: I mean, obviously they're sitting at three and two. Usually 947 00:46:25,680 --> 00:46:28,120 Speaker 2: when you start the season with three road wins, you're 948 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:31,320 Speaker 2: in great shape. But owing two at home and obviously 949 00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:34,759 Speaker 2: an underdog at home today against a really good Lions team, 950 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:38,959 Speaker 2: So I don't know, the lines are a better team 951 00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:42,839 Speaker 2: than the Cowboys. But maybe that's maybe there's a day 952 00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:46,320 Speaker 2: like when suddenly everything goes their way and the highest 953 00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:49,319 Speaker 2: paid player in the NFL just has an insane day 954 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:53,320 Speaker 2: against a really good team. Could be today for Dak Prescott. 955 00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:53,839 Speaker 2: Who knows. 956 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:57,120 Speaker 4: If they lose again today, it'll mark the first time 957 00:46:57,200 --> 00:47:00,400 Speaker 4: since two thousand and six, with their starting quarter back 958 00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:03,920 Speaker 4: in under center, that the Dallas Cowboys have opened the 959 00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:08,400 Speaker 4: season with three consecutive home losses. So and listen, I mean, 960 00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:11,640 Speaker 4: is that huge news. No, But considering they were on 961 00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:15,520 Speaker 4: an absolute tear at home, winning sixteen straight home games 962 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:17,840 Speaker 4: all the way through last season. 963 00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:21,080 Speaker 1: I mean, this is a team that was just typically 964 00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:22,560 Speaker 1: great at Jerry's World. 965 00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:25,840 Speaker 4: Anytime they were hosting anybody, You're like, oh, well, Dallas 966 00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:27,400 Speaker 4: will find a way to win. I mean, it was 967 00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:30,239 Speaker 4: a short fire money line bet. And now all of 968 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:34,560 Speaker 4: a sudden, we have questions about why, like why do they. 969 00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:37,520 Speaker 1: Look so poor when they're at home. It's a strange thing. 970 00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:39,879 Speaker 4: It feels like a little bit of a hiccup through 971 00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:42,000 Speaker 4: the first two weeks. But if they do it again, 972 00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:44,640 Speaker 4: if they lose to Detroit at home, all of a sudden, 973 00:47:44,680 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 4: it's a trend. And now you got to start asking 974 00:47:47,320 --> 00:47:50,800 Speaker 4: questions to Mike McCarthy, to Dak Prescott, to some of 975 00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:54,839 Speaker 4: the other important members of this team defensively or otherwise, Hey, 976 00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:56,160 Speaker 4: why does this keep happening? 977 00:47:56,680 --> 00:48:00,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, by the way, the Saints did get a field goals, 978 00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:03,080 Speaker 2: so they have cut that Buccaneers lead down to seventeen 979 00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:06,320 Speaker 2: to thirteen. So the Saints mounting a challenge. I'm watching 980 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:08,680 Speaker 2: right now the Cleveland Browns. All right, we got three 981 00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:10,600 Speaker 2: minutes to go in the half. Eagles are up ten 982 00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:14,760 Speaker 2: to nothing. Browns are driving, and I'm just watching Deshaun 983 00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:18,240 Speaker 2: Watson throw the football. He's five of eleven for forty 984 00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:21,880 Speaker 2: six yards. He just missed a receiver badly. You know 985 00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:24,359 Speaker 2: it wasn't one of those so that was dropped or 986 00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:27,600 Speaker 2: and now he just got sacked, which is his third 987 00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:30,480 Speaker 2: sack of the game, setting up a fourth down, and 988 00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:34,040 Speaker 2: so they're staring at about a forty something yardfield goal. 989 00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:38,759 Speaker 2: So you know, it's just not happening. And I don't know, 990 00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:45,840 Speaker 2: if I'm Kevin Stefanski, I march into the owner's office 991 00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:49,920 Speaker 2: and say, okay, I get it, like we're paying this 992 00:48:49,960 --> 00:48:52,759 Speaker 2: guy a lot of money, but you can't hold me 993 00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:56,680 Speaker 2: accountable for his ineptitude as a quarterback, Like I can't 994 00:48:56,680 --> 00:49:01,080 Speaker 2: be held responsible because I would make could change right now. 995 00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:03,840 Speaker 2: I would go to James Winston, I would go to 996 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:07,600 Speaker 2: dtr I would go to anybody but him. But if 997 00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:11,279 Speaker 2: you insist that we keep throwing him out there and 998 00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:13,360 Speaker 2: he continues to play as poorly as he is, the 999 00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:15,759 Speaker 2: Browns did get a field goal ten to three right 1000 00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:18,439 Speaker 2: now is to score against the Eagles. Do not hold 1001 00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:19,120 Speaker 2: me accountable. 1002 00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:23,880 Speaker 4: Hey, listen, he can't play anymore. He's not a starting 1003 00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:28,000 Speaker 4: quarterback anymore. It's as simple as that. I mean, we don't, 1004 00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:30,919 Speaker 4: don't we have a large enough yes sample size. 1005 00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:34,000 Speaker 2: You you just gave us the numbers historically bad. 1006 00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:37,120 Speaker 4: Historically bad through these first five games for the Cleveland Browns. 1007 00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:40,480 Speaker 4: Has he really dazzled anybody when he wasn't injured? 1008 00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:42,600 Speaker 2: You know what he dazzled last year? Remember it was 1009 00:49:42,640 --> 00:49:44,919 Speaker 2: that last half that he played and then the next 1010 00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:47,160 Speaker 2: week they said he was hurt. But you remember that 1011 00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:50,160 Speaker 2: he had almost a perfect half in leading the Browns 1012 00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:52,839 Speaker 2: to a comfort behind victory, where like finally we get 1013 00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:54,680 Speaker 2: to see and then that's announced that week he's out 1014 00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:55,040 Speaker 2: for the year. 1015 00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:56,840 Speaker 1: Well, and see that's just my point, Steve. 1016 00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:59,000 Speaker 4: You can't depend on him to be on the field 1017 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:03,359 Speaker 4: as an NFL player, Your most important ability is your durability. 1018 00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 4: When he's on the field, you can't depend on him 1019 00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:09,960 Speaker 4: to be anything resembling the quarterback he was in Houston, 1020 00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:12,680 Speaker 4: which is the reason why you're paying him this enormous 1021 00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:16,960 Speaker 4: guaranteed contract. So here's the question I'll ask again, is 1022 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:19,520 Speaker 4: he a starting quarterback in the NFL? And the answer 1023 00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:22,319 Speaker 4: is no, he's not because his numbers don't look like 1024 00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:26,160 Speaker 4: any starting quarterback should in the NFL, especially one who 1025 00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:27,319 Speaker 4: you're paying this much money to. 1026 00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:30,320 Speaker 1: So, if this is a business decision. 1027 00:50:30,480 --> 00:50:34,040 Speaker 4: And you're keeping him in the game because you've spent 1028 00:50:34,120 --> 00:50:37,840 Speaker 4: so much money on him, you're doing bad business because 1029 00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:40,880 Speaker 4: you're throwing good money after bad You're saying, Okay, we 1030 00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:44,000 Speaker 4: made a poor investment, so let's really lean into this 1031 00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:47,200 Speaker 4: poor investment. This way, we can make sure to maximize 1032 00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:50,239 Speaker 4: our dollars. Absolutely not. What you have to want to 1033 00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:51,920 Speaker 4: do is cut bait and bail. 1034 00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:55,759 Speaker 2: You're not gonna believe this. Baker Mayfield just got intercepted 1035 00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:59,719 Speaker 2: again and the Saints have just scored a touchdown Spencer 1036 00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:04,720 Speaker 2: Ler to Bob Means and the Saints take the lead 1037 00:51:05,600 --> 00:51:10,279 Speaker 2: against Tampa. This is unbelievable. So first play after the 1038 00:51:10,320 --> 00:51:16,520 Speaker 2: interception and there it is two feet down touchdown. Saints. 1039 00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:17,839 Speaker 2: Amazing to take the lead. 1040 00:51:17,960 --> 00:51:18,520 Speaker 1: So this was. 1041 00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:21,680 Speaker 2: Seventeen to nothing Buccaneers. There's still eight and a half 1042 00:51:21,719 --> 00:51:24,880 Speaker 2: minutes to go in the first half. So the Saints 1043 00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:28,360 Speaker 2: now have the lead in this game. And that is 1044 00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:33,279 Speaker 2: a touchdown passer Spencer Ratler. And wow, what a turnaround 1045 00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:35,520 Speaker 2: in this game for the Saints after it looked like 1046 00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:36,439 Speaker 2: a mailing game. 1047 00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:38,400 Speaker 6: We also have a touchdown by a Jordan Love in 1048 00:51:38,440 --> 00:51:40,160 Speaker 6: the Packers game. He's just threw another one. 1049 00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:43,120 Speaker 2: All right, So the Packers now with a twenty four 1050 00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:47,520 Speaker 2: to nothing lead. Jordan Love three touchdown passes fourteen of 1051 00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:51,279 Speaker 2: nineteen hundred and eighty five yards and three touchdowns. So 1052 00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:53,600 Speaker 2: Malik Willis can stay on the bench right now. No 1053 00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:56,320 Speaker 2: knock on him because he did play well. But looks 1054 00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:59,200 Speaker 2: like Jordan Love is back. By the way, the extra 1055 00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:04,400 Speaker 2: point for the Sainteints no good. They missed the extra point? 1056 00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:05,000 Speaker 1: Wow? 1057 00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:06,080 Speaker 2: Or did they? 1058 00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:06,839 Speaker 1: No? 1059 00:52:06,920 --> 00:52:09,160 Speaker 2: They did get the extra I'm sorry let me correct 1060 00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,279 Speaker 2: that it said no good, but it actually is good. 1061 00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:14,360 Speaker 2: So Saints lead the Buccaneers by a score of twenty 1062 00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:18,520 Speaker 2: to seventeen after spotting them a seventeen to nothing lead. 1063 00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:21,080 Speaker 2: All right, as you can see, we argue really heating 1064 00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:24,120 Speaker 2: up around the NFL with these six games. Right now, 1065 00:52:24,200 --> 00:52:27,279 Speaker 2: what's next is one way to find out? Stay right here, 1066 00:52:27,360 --> 00:52:31,120 Speaker 2: this is red zone radio. Saints have the football. 1067 00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:34,480 Speaker 12: At the ten ratt lerner throw looking now, throwst to 1068 00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:36,880 Speaker 12: the ends on and that is gonna be caught, and 1069 00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:40,200 Speaker 12: that is Bud Leans lit. A rookie on the far 1070 00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:45,440 Speaker 12: side gets his first touchdown. Good play action waited, waited. 1071 00:52:45,520 --> 00:52:50,239 Speaker 2: Bang, that's WWL Saints Radio network. Saints took the lead 1072 00:52:50,360 --> 00:52:53,880 Speaker 2: twenty to seventeen over the Bucks, but the Buccaneers have 1073 00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:57,240 Speaker 2: just answered back with a big touchdown. I believe Tucker 1074 00:52:57,320 --> 00:53:00,640 Speaker 2: was on the receiving end from Baker Mayfield there, and 1075 00:53:00,760 --> 00:53:04,360 Speaker 2: so the uh Buccaneers now have a twenty three to 1076 00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:08,520 Speaker 2: twenty lead over the Saints waiting on the x foint there. Oh, 1077 00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:09,040 Speaker 2: it is going. 1078 00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:11,520 Speaker 9: Don't bear crazy, though, don't bury the lead on what 1079 00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 9: just happened. 1080 00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:14,759 Speaker 2: Hold on a second, I do have to do a 1081 00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:18,759 Speaker 2: reset here. Once again, this is red Zone radio and 1082 00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:22,000 Speaker 2: we are live from the Tirak dot com studios. So 1083 00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:24,439 Speaker 2: the Eagles had a ten to three lead at home 1084 00:53:24,480 --> 00:53:28,200 Speaker 2: against the innep Rounds lined up for a fifty seven 1085 00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:33,240 Speaker 2: yard field goal attempt, blocked return for a touchdown. Wow, 1086 00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:34,279 Speaker 2: that game is ten ten. 1087 00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:36,080 Speaker 1: Oh my gods. 1088 00:53:36,160 --> 00:53:39,640 Speaker 2: Garrett was all over that kick. Yeah, that was a 1089 00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:41,880 Speaker 2: by the way, to see the laces pointing at the 1090 00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:45,080 Speaker 2: kicker when he kicked it. The ball was flipped wrongway 1091 00:53:45,840 --> 00:53:49,040 Speaker 2: and it was blocked and returned for a touchdown. 1092 00:53:49,320 --> 00:53:53,000 Speaker 9: So I'm watching it. Miles Garrett jumps the center, yeah, 1093 00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:54,440 Speaker 9: and gets directly to it. 1094 00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:57,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a clean and it was a perfect bounce. 1095 00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:01,320 Speaker 2: It was one of those perfect blocked kick that bounces 1096 00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:04,719 Speaker 2: right into one of the Browns players hands and he 1097 00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:07,880 Speaker 2: returns for the touchdowns. So we got a lot of 1098 00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:12,000 Speaker 2: craziness going on in a very very volatile first half. 1099 00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:14,319 Speaker 2: By the way, that Eagles Browns game. The reason they 1100 00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:17,239 Speaker 2: were attempting the fifty seven yardfield goal is that it 1101 00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:19,600 Speaker 2: was right at the end of the half. So instead 1102 00:54:19,600 --> 00:54:23,000 Speaker 2: of up thirteen to three at the half, Browns Eagles 1103 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:25,240 Speaker 2: tied ten ten at halftime. 1104 00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:29,080 Speaker 4: Look again, I'll repeat what we said earlier in the show, 1105 00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:33,759 Speaker 4: considering who you're playing against that quarterback, and really just 1106 00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:37,160 Speaker 4: sort of the general vibe that the Browns have given 1107 00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:39,920 Speaker 4: off the entire season. It doesn't seem like they have 1108 00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:42,600 Speaker 4: the same fight they had with Joe Flacco at quarterback 1109 00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:45,239 Speaker 4: toward the end of the season. The Browns were a 1110 00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:48,920 Speaker 4: surprise team with the fact that they had cycled through 1111 00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:54,000 Speaker 4: six different starting quarterbacks throughout the NFL season, But they 1112 00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:57,319 Speaker 4: looked like a scrappy team that just found ways to 1113 00:54:57,360 --> 00:55:00,560 Speaker 4: win and Joe Flacco was leading them. They feel list 1114 00:55:00,680 --> 00:55:04,720 Speaker 4: right now, So if you're Philadelphia, especially with the questionable 1115 00:55:05,239 --> 00:55:08,400 Speaker 4: situation at head coach, because as it's been well reported, 1116 00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:11,399 Speaker 4: there's been issues with Nick Sirianni in this locker room. 1117 00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:14,600 Speaker 4: There's been issues with Nick Sirianni and this front office. 1118 00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:17,239 Speaker 4: I'm curious if a loss of the Browns is in 1119 00:55:17,320 --> 00:55:19,960 Speaker 4: something of a death now, especially since a little bit 1120 00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:22,600 Speaker 4: of the pressure has been taken off with the band 1121 00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:25,200 Speaker 4: aid being yanked off in New York with Robert Sala 1122 00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:26,560 Speaker 4: being the first to go this season. 1123 00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:28,279 Speaker 1: In terms of a head coach firing. 1124 00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:32,000 Speaker 2: Could well be by the way, remember I was bragging 1125 00:55:32,040 --> 00:55:35,600 Speaker 2: about my underpick on this Ravens Commander's game when it 1126 00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:37,799 Speaker 2: was three to three. Well, all of a sudden, a 1127 00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:40,800 Speaker 2: touchdown pass from Lamar Jackson and Mark Andrews makes it 1128 00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:45,640 Speaker 2: seventeen to ten. Ravens, we got about fifteen seconds to go. 1129 00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:49,880 Speaker 2: Jayden Daniels is frantically trying to get the Commanders in 1130 00:55:49,960 --> 00:55:53,120 Speaker 2: at least field goal position. So as soon as I 1131 00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:55,319 Speaker 2: open my mouth and they're like, there's no way we 1132 00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:58,720 Speaker 2: can let Hartman win on the under, suddenly a Floria 1133 00:55:58,880 --> 00:56:03,200 Speaker 2: points Mark Andrews. As I mentioned, thirteen yard touchdown reception 1134 00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:06,200 Speaker 2: from Lamar Jackson, who, by the way, is having one 1135 00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:09,640 Speaker 2: heck of a game again today, fourteen of nineteen two 1136 00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:12,040 Speaker 2: hundred and eight yards passing in this game. So the 1137 00:56:12,040 --> 00:56:16,040 Speaker 2: Commanders are at midfield right now. We got sixteen seconds left, 1138 00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:20,840 Speaker 2: and they have one time out, and they've got another 1139 00:56:20,880 --> 00:56:24,440 Speaker 2: completed pass ten seconds left out of bounds, so at 1140 00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:26,879 Speaker 2: the very least right now, they're in a position for 1141 00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:28,840 Speaker 2: a long field goal attempt. 1142 00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:29,880 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1143 00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:33,839 Speaker 4: Yeah, this is a wonky part of the season when 1144 00:56:33,880 --> 00:56:36,800 Speaker 4: you start thinking about where we're at in the NFL 1145 00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:40,719 Speaker 4: Week six, we're getting to see who these teams are, like, 1146 00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:43,880 Speaker 4: we're getting to see the identity of certain teams like 1147 00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:46,799 Speaker 4: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, at least to my measure in 1148 00:56:46,880 --> 00:56:50,120 Speaker 4: terms of the eyeball test in year two with Baker Mayfield, 1149 00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:53,200 Speaker 4: it looks right like Tampa Bay looks like they've found 1150 00:56:53,239 --> 00:56:54,600 Speaker 4: their starting quarterback. 1151 00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:56,920 Speaker 1: At least for the future couple years. 1152 00:56:57,000 --> 00:56:57,200 Speaker 10: Right. 1153 00:56:57,239 --> 00:56:59,880 Speaker 1: You know, you look around the league and you say, Okay, 1154 00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:00,960 Speaker 1: the New England. 1155 00:57:00,640 --> 00:57:04,400 Speaker 4: Patriots, where are they at? Well, they're still waiting to excel. 1156 00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:08,840 Speaker 4: After the Tom Brady era ends, they're still listless and 1157 00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:11,080 Speaker 4: it hasn't gotten much better. Now we're onto the new 1158 00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:14,239 Speaker 4: era with Drake may We'll see how that looks. It 1159 00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:17,080 Speaker 4: remains to be seen. But right now Houston's leading against 1160 00:57:17,480 --> 00:57:19,360 Speaker 4: the New England Patriots. 1161 00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:22,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, they have, by the way, eighty three total yards 1162 00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 2: on the first half New England and no points with 1163 00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:27,680 Speaker 2: sixteen seconds left. By the way, Commanders Sebert is coming 1164 00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:30,600 Speaker 2: on for a field goal attempt right now with five 1165 00:57:30,680 --> 00:57:33,800 Speaker 2: seconds to go in the half. Again, it's a fifty 1166 00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:37,240 Speaker 2: two yard field goal attempt, and let's see how this 1167 00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:40,280 Speaker 2: kick is looking. The Ravens leaving seventeen to ten, and 1168 00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:43,680 Speaker 2: it is no good missed it. 1169 00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:48,200 Speaker 4: The Commanders another team where you start to think to yourself, man, 1170 00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:50,760 Speaker 4: we're starting to see the identity of that team. Jayden 1171 00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:54,000 Speaker 4: Daniels looks to be a real quarterback at this league level. 1172 00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:54,280 Speaker 1: You know. 1173 00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:56,720 Speaker 4: So Week six is an important week because now we 1174 00:57:57,600 --> 00:57:59,840 Speaker 4: have a record that actually gives you a large enough 1175 00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:02,240 Speaker 4: ample size to say, hey, what's the season going to 1176 00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:04,920 Speaker 4: look like? Which direction is this team going? And then 1177 00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:07,040 Speaker 4: also you can get an idea, especially with some of 1178 00:58:07,040 --> 00:58:10,560 Speaker 4: these new coaches in eight different places around the NFL, 1179 00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:14,600 Speaker 4: you get an idea of what those coaches look like 1180 00:58:15,560 --> 00:58:18,280 Speaker 4: heading up an NFL team, whether it's for the first 1181 00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:20,240 Speaker 4: time or maybe a second time around for some of 1182 00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:20,720 Speaker 4: these guys. 1183 00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:24,000 Speaker 2: All right, so again it's halftime. The Ravens lead the 1184 00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:27,240 Speaker 2: Commanders by a score of seventeen to ten. Meanwhile, right 1185 00:58:27,280 --> 00:58:29,680 Speaker 2: before the half, the Colts have gotten a field goals, 1186 00:58:29,680 --> 00:58:31,840 Speaker 2: so they are tied with the Titans ten to ten 1187 00:58:32,720 --> 00:58:34,800 Speaker 2: nineteen seconds to go in the half. There After, a 1188 00:58:34,840 --> 00:58:38,400 Speaker 2: good star Flacco cooled off tremendously. Colt's going to get 1189 00:58:38,480 --> 00:58:41,160 Speaker 2: much going, and so they are tied to ten and 1190 00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:44,960 Speaker 2: the Cardinals finally get on the scoreboard. They still trail 1191 00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:48,040 Speaker 2: the Packers by a score of twenty four to seven. 1192 00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:50,920 Speaker 2: Kyler Murray in this game, just four of nine sixty 1193 00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:54,680 Speaker 2: three yards. He did throw a touchdown pass to Michael Wilson. 1194 00:58:55,360 --> 00:58:57,680 Speaker 2: But the other thing about the Cardinals right now is 1195 00:58:58,120 --> 00:59:00,680 Speaker 2: their running game is non existent. James not much of 1196 00:59:00,680 --> 00:59:03,440 Speaker 2: a day, only twenty four yards on the ground. Murray's 1197 00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:06,880 Speaker 2: been held in check, so Green Bay could not be better. 1198 00:59:07,120 --> 00:59:09,800 Speaker 2: Jordan Love fourteen of nineteen, one hundred and eighty four yards, 1199 00:59:09,880 --> 00:59:13,120 Speaker 2: three touchdown passes in the first half. And a big 1200 00:59:13,120 --> 00:59:16,320 Speaker 2: difference for this Packer team is Josh Jacobs. You know, 1201 00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:17,840 Speaker 2: I mean, all of a sudden, you got a guy 1202 00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:20,800 Speaker 2: Josh Jacobs. We know he is approven running back in 1203 00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:22,560 Speaker 2: this league, led the league in rushing a couple of 1204 00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:25,400 Speaker 2: years ago. So amazing. How much better a quarterback looks 1205 00:59:25,400 --> 00:59:28,480 Speaker 2: when he actually has some semblance of a running game. 1206 00:59:28,560 --> 00:59:31,800 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, well, I mean look at Lamar Jackson. 1207 00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:35,840 Speaker 4: He's benefited his entire career because the Baltimore Ravens have 1208 00:59:36,040 --> 00:59:39,880 Speaker 4: always made sure to have a capable running back flanking 1209 00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:40,920 Speaker 4: him in the backfield. 1210 00:59:41,600 --> 00:59:42,760 Speaker 1: His style of play. 1211 00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:44,800 Speaker 4: Really is suited with a good running game as well. 1212 00:59:44,880 --> 00:59:48,440 Speaker 4: Same thing happening with the Commanders in Cliff Kingsbury's offense 1213 00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:51,240 Speaker 4: in Washington. You know, when you have a good running 1214 00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:53,919 Speaker 4: back who can help take some of the pressure off, 1215 00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:56,400 Speaker 4: which is why it is a little confounding that the 1216 00:59:56,440 --> 00:59:58,680 Speaker 4: New York Jets haven't found a way to make it 1217 00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:01,960 Speaker 4: work with Aaron Rodgers playing alongside Breese Hall, because he 1218 01:00:02,360 --> 01:00:05,120 Speaker 4: has shown the goods he's he's a talented running back 1219 01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:08,080 Speaker 4: at this league level. But again, maybe we'll have to 1220 01:00:08,120 --> 01:00:10,800 Speaker 4: wait a little bit longer to see if they can 1221 01:00:10,840 --> 01:00:14,400 Speaker 4: get that thing going in the right direction. Yeah, By 1222 01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:18,560 Speaker 4: and large, running backs are absolutely the pressure release that 1223 01:00:18,680 --> 01:00:22,040 Speaker 4: a young quarterback especially needs to have success in the NFL. 1224 01:00:22,080 --> 01:00:26,120 Speaker 2: All right, we have history made in New England. Drake 1225 01:00:26,280 --> 01:00:29,360 Speaker 2: May has just thrown a forty yard touchdown pass with 1226 01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:32,520 Speaker 2: eleven seconds to go in the half to get New 1227 01:00:32,520 --> 01:00:36,480 Speaker 2: England on the board as they trail Houston fourteen to seven. Obviously, 1228 01:00:36,520 --> 01:00:39,760 Speaker 2: the Patriots are hoping this will be the first of 1229 01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:44,480 Speaker 2: some six hundred touchdown passes that Drake May throws in 1230 01:00:44,560 --> 01:00:47,640 Speaker 2: his Patriots careers. Are rookie numbers. Yeah, so there you go. 1231 01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:49,760 Speaker 2: But then, I mean, right before they have a forty 1232 01:00:49,840 --> 01:00:50,840 Speaker 2: yard touchdown pass. 1233 01:00:51,080 --> 01:00:55,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, Well, the one thing that they were complaining about openly. 1234 01:00:55,360 --> 01:00:58,120 Speaker 4: In fact, Rod Mayo said at a postgame press conference, 1235 01:00:58,640 --> 01:01:01,439 Speaker 4: was they were not able to push the ball down 1236 01:01:01,440 --> 01:01:03,760 Speaker 4: the field. They were having a hard time, whether by 1237 01:01:03,840 --> 01:01:07,360 Speaker 4: scheme or because Jacobi Prissec couldn't get it done throwing 1238 01:01:07,360 --> 01:01:10,000 Speaker 4: the football vertically. Well, Drake may he did it his 1239 01:01:10,160 --> 01:01:12,800 Speaker 4: entire college career. And you saw it there in this 1240 01:01:12,920 --> 01:01:16,160 Speaker 4: great touchdown pass. I mean when you say forty yards, 1241 01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:17,840 Speaker 4: all forty of those yards were. 1242 01:01:17,680 --> 01:01:18,280 Speaker 1: Through the air. 1243 01:01:18,360 --> 01:01:22,160 Speaker 4: I mean this was a ball thrown and caught at 1244 01:01:22,200 --> 01:01:24,760 Speaker 4: the goal line for six points before the half. 1245 01:01:25,200 --> 01:01:29,080 Speaker 2: Crazy game of the day. So Tampa Bay had retaken 1246 01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:32,760 Speaker 2: the lead, and now the Saints have retaken the lead 1247 01:01:32,800 --> 01:01:37,800 Speaker 2: at seventh place, seventy yard drive, Alvin Kamara with the 1248 01:01:37,840 --> 01:01:43,040 Speaker 2: touchdown and the Saints lead the Buccaneers. It's twenty seven 1249 01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:47,160 Speaker 2: to twenty four with almost three minutes left in the half. 1250 01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:50,680 Speaker 2: So if anybody took the over in this game, you've 1251 01:01:50,720 --> 01:01:54,160 Speaker 2: already won. You can cash your ticket. It's over before 1252 01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:58,960 Speaker 2: half died. Twenty seven to twenty four. Saints lead the 1253 01:01:58,960 --> 01:02:02,000 Speaker 2: Buccaneers and bencer Rattler after a little bit of a 1254 01:02:02,040 --> 01:02:05,280 Speaker 2: slow start, ten of thirteen hundred and thirty seven yards 1255 01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:08,160 Speaker 2: in a score. The big story here, Baker Midfield's had 1256 01:02:08,160 --> 01:02:10,800 Speaker 2: a good half, except he threw two picks, and that's 1257 01:02:10,840 --> 01:02:14,240 Speaker 2: how the Saints have got themselves in a position leading 1258 01:02:14,280 --> 01:02:17,240 Speaker 2: this game twenty seven to twenty four. All right, let's 1259 01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:20,920 Speaker 2: find out what is trending right now. Monzi is back 1260 01:02:20,960 --> 01:02:24,480 Speaker 2: and Manzie's been raising her hands a lot, victorious, like 1261 01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:26,680 Speaker 2: your team must be humming. 1262 01:02:27,080 --> 01:02:28,520 Speaker 7: It's up and down. I'm not gonna lie to you 1263 01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:29,080 Speaker 7: up and down. 1264 01:02:29,080 --> 01:02:31,200 Speaker 8: But I just was excited that Mark and Andrews, you know, 1265 01:02:31,280 --> 01:02:34,000 Speaker 8: caught his first touchdown pass of the season. That's probably 1266 01:02:34,000 --> 01:02:37,200 Speaker 8: the latest one that I was happy for. Jordan Love 1267 01:02:37,400 --> 01:02:41,120 Speaker 8: a hat trick in the first half, just through an interception. 1268 01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:44,480 Speaker 8: So the Packers are still beating the Cardinals twenty four 1269 01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:47,040 Speaker 8: to seven. There's one minute to go. Cardinals have the 1270 01:02:47,080 --> 01:02:49,520 Speaker 8: ball now around midfield. But yeah, Jordan Love with a 1271 01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:52,200 Speaker 8: hat trick and it's just about to be halftime. Sixteen 1272 01:02:52,200 --> 01:02:54,320 Speaker 8: of twenty two, one hundred and ninety four yards, three 1273 01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:57,880 Speaker 8: touchdown passes. He shared the love. Jaden Reed Romeo dopts 1274 01:02:57,960 --> 01:02:59,640 Speaker 8: Christian Watson at halftime. 1275 01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:00,520 Speaker 7: It's a game in. 1276 01:03:00,480 --> 01:03:02,800 Speaker 8: Tennessee between the Colts and the Titans. They are tied 1277 01:03:02,880 --> 01:03:06,160 Speaker 8: at ten apiece the Texans. You just mentioned Drake may 1278 01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:08,560 Speaker 8: with his touchdown pass for the Patriots, but the Texans 1279 01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:10,160 Speaker 8: are on top at halftimes. 1280 01:03:09,760 --> 01:03:11,040 Speaker 7: Still fourteen to seven. 1281 01:03:11,200 --> 01:03:11,480 Speaker 5: C J. 1282 01:03:11,640 --> 01:03:14,200 Speaker 8: Stroud has connected already with Tank Dell and Joe Mixon, 1283 01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:14,880 Speaker 8: who is back. 1284 01:03:14,760 --> 01:03:17,520 Speaker 7: In the mix today. Yeah, this Buccaneer Saints game. See 1285 01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:19,640 Speaker 7: Baker Mayfield. I have him. So it's up and down. 1286 01:03:19,720 --> 01:03:22,560 Speaker 8: It's an emotional roller coaster if you're playing Baker Mayfield. 1287 01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:24,959 Speaker 8: He has thrown two picks already, but he has also 1288 01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:27,400 Speaker 8: thrown fo one hundred and seventy five yards and two touchdowns. 1289 01:03:27,440 --> 01:03:29,920 Speaker 8: And the Buccaneers are losing to the Saints twenty four, 1290 01:03:30,080 --> 01:03:32,560 Speaker 8: twenty seven, excuse me to twenty four. There's a little 1291 01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:34,760 Speaker 8: over two minutes to go, and Tampa Bay does have 1292 01:03:34,880 --> 01:03:38,000 Speaker 8: the ball. The Browns and the Eagles, could they fire 1293 01:03:38,080 --> 01:03:41,520 Speaker 8: Nick Sirianni at halftime? Like, is that even possible? Because 1294 01:03:42,320 --> 01:03:44,800 Speaker 8: that was yes off a bye week and no Bueno. 1295 01:03:44,880 --> 01:03:47,600 Speaker 8: Browns and Eagles tied at ten apiece at halftime. Jalen 1296 01:03:47,640 --> 01:03:50,000 Speaker 8: hurt Seine of sixteen one hundred and thirty seven yards 1297 01:03:50,080 --> 01:03:53,480 Speaker 8: one a touchdown so far, the Commanders and Ravens. It's 1298 01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:57,280 Speaker 8: the Ravens on top, seventeen to ten at halftime.

No? 1321 01:04:55,240 --> 01:04:55,840 Speaker 7: Shit, we have. 1322 01:04:56,960 --> 01:05:00,919 Speaker 4: The Air Force is off to uh let's but they're 1323 01:05:00,960 --> 01:05:02,680 Speaker 4: not playing like armire Navy this year. 1324 01:05:02,800 --> 01:05:05,320 Speaker 7: Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, all right. 1325 01:05:05,160 --> 01:05:08,360 Speaker 2: Well Mantzie, thank you very much. By the way, my 1326 01:05:08,600 --> 01:05:11,160 Speaker 2: guy that is number one in my Heisman poll, I 1327 01:05:11,160 --> 01:05:14,680 Speaker 2: guess he's number one ambulance Heisman pole. Ashton gent ran 1328 01:05:14,720 --> 01:05:17,360 Speaker 2: for another two hundred and seventeen yards last night as 1329 01:05:17,560 --> 01:05:21,040 Speaker 2: Boise State beat Hawaii. It's actually a tougher game than 1330 01:05:21,040 --> 01:05:23,040 Speaker 2: maybe Boise he was expecting. For much of the game 1331 01:05:23,080 --> 01:05:25,680 Speaker 2: Hawaii actually played pretty well. But I mean, this guy, 1332 01:05:26,360 --> 01:05:28,640 Speaker 2: at least in my book, especially with Travis Hunter getting 1333 01:05:28,720 --> 01:05:33,560 Speaker 2: hurt yesterday for Colorado. Obviously, you know, with Dylan Gabriel, 1334 01:05:33,680 --> 01:05:36,240 Speaker 2: you know, leading Oregon to a victory over Ohio State 1335 01:05:36,280 --> 01:05:39,800 Speaker 2: gets him in the conversation. But Rich, obviously you are 1336 01:05:39,840 --> 01:05:43,440 Speaker 2: in that Mountain West Conference. By the way, the San 1337 01:05:43,480 --> 01:05:45,880 Speaker 2: Diego State Aztecs just running away with that conference right 1338 01:05:45,880 --> 01:05:48,640 Speaker 2: now after another big win. But it looks like this 1339 01:05:48,880 --> 01:05:53,240 Speaker 2: Ashton Genty, barring injury, could literally run away with the 1340 01:05:53,280 --> 01:05:55,520 Speaker 2: Heisman and be the first running back to win the 1341 01:05:55,560 --> 01:05:58,320 Speaker 2: Heisman since Derrick Henry back in twenty fifteen. 1342 01:05:58,520 --> 01:06:02,320 Speaker 4: He's sensation, And uh yeah, I'll get to see him 1343 01:06:02,360 --> 01:06:05,760 Speaker 4: in person up in Boise on a Friday night here 1344 01:06:05,920 --> 01:06:08,840 Speaker 4: in November I'm looking forward to that meeting between San 1345 01:06:08,920 --> 01:06:12,800 Speaker 4: Diego State and Ashton Genty because really the story has 1346 01:06:12,840 --> 01:06:13,840 Speaker 4: been all about him. 1347 01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:15,320 Speaker 1: No, don't get me wrong. 1348 01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:18,560 Speaker 4: The Smurf Turf and they have a pretty decent quarterback, 1349 01:06:18,600 --> 01:06:20,880 Speaker 4: and there's other things going on in Boise, I'm sure, 1350 01:06:20,920 --> 01:06:22,680 Speaker 4: but it's all Ashton Genty. 1351 01:06:22,760 --> 01:06:24,320 Speaker 1: With the way he's been towed in the rock. 1352 01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:26,800 Speaker 2: You gotta watch it. If you haven't seen this guy, right, 1353 01:06:27,000 --> 01:06:30,360 Speaker 2: you've heard about him. He's, you know, like five foot nine, 1354 01:06:30,560 --> 01:06:35,920 Speaker 2: he's thick, right. I would never compare anybody to Barry Sanders, 1355 01:06:36,280 --> 01:06:39,840 Speaker 2: but he has that kind of like one step explosiveness, 1356 01:06:39,880 --> 01:06:43,880 Speaker 2: like if he sees daylight, he just goes. I mean, 1357 01:06:43,880 --> 01:06:46,440 Speaker 2: he's just like gone. He had a fifty four yard 1358 01:06:46,760 --> 01:06:49,320 Speaker 2: touchdown yesterday. It was very similar where it's look like, 1359 01:06:49,560 --> 01:06:51,400 Speaker 2: you know, this might be a four or five, six, seven, 1360 01:06:51,440 --> 01:06:53,320 Speaker 2: eight yard play and then all of a sudden, he 1361 01:06:53,320 --> 01:06:55,680 Speaker 2: puts his foot down and he's off to the races 1362 01:06:55,720 --> 01:06:58,880 Speaker 2: and nobody is going to catch him. He came into 1363 01:06:58,960 --> 01:07:04,400 Speaker 2: the game yesterday averaging ten point nine yards of carry. Yeah, 1364 01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:08,560 Speaker 2: averaging Yeah, that was like ninety five carries for over 1365 01:07:08,680 --> 01:07:09,880 Speaker 2: a thousand yards. 1366 01:07:09,920 --> 01:07:12,240 Speaker 4: And also he's done it against some of the top 1367 01:07:12,240 --> 01:07:16,320 Speaker 4: tier talent in the country Oregon. Yes, when Boisse State 1368 01:07:16,360 --> 01:07:19,000 Speaker 4: went on the road to Oregon or lost by three 1369 01:07:19,080 --> 01:07:22,600 Speaker 4: by three points, that's right. But Ashton Jenty had one 1370 01:07:22,720 --> 01:07:25,800 Speaker 4: hundred and ninety two yards on the ground with three touchdowns. 1371 01:07:25,840 --> 01:07:29,720 Speaker 4: He had a seventy yard touchdown rush during that game. 1372 01:07:30,080 --> 01:07:33,240 Speaker 4: He averaged over seven yards per carry. I mean, he's good. 1373 01:07:33,680 --> 01:07:38,000 Speaker 4: He's good against anybody. So this this guy, I mean, 1374 01:07:38,040 --> 01:07:40,000 Speaker 4: he has to be the favorite to win the Heisman. 1375 01:07:40,040 --> 01:07:42,920 Speaker 2: It reminds me Barry Sanders year where Oklahoma State. You 1376 01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:45,040 Speaker 2: know that was in the old Big Eight days when 1377 01:07:45,120 --> 01:07:49,439 Speaker 2: Oklahoma Nebraska owned that conference and that Oklahoma State team 1378 01:07:49,480 --> 01:07:52,160 Speaker 2: only lost two games, both to Oklahoma and Nebraska. But 1379 01:07:52,240 --> 01:07:55,400 Speaker 2: in both those games, even losses, he had huge numbers. 1380 01:07:55,400 --> 01:07:57,200 Speaker 2: So it was just like, it doesn't matter who this 1381 01:07:57,280 --> 01:07:59,880 Speaker 2: guy plays, he's going to get it done. So yeah, 1382 01:08:00,120 --> 01:08:04,840 Speaker 2: Ashton Genty Boise State could well be on his way 1383 01:08:05,040 --> 01:08:07,800 Speaker 2: to winning the Heisman Trophy this year. Meanwhile, the Cardinals, 1384 01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:10,040 Speaker 2: right before the half, they were down twenty four to 1385 01:08:10,040 --> 01:08:11,880 Speaker 2: nothing in this game to the Packers. They now have 1386 01:08:11,880 --> 01:08:14,520 Speaker 2: a third and six at the Packer twenty yard line, 1387 01:08:14,720 --> 01:08:17,559 Speaker 2: so trying to get some points there to at least 1388 01:08:17,560 --> 01:08:21,800 Speaker 2: make it possible for a second half comeback. I want 1389 01:08:21,800 --> 01:08:24,360 Speaker 2: to get back to this Patriots game for a second here, 1390 01:08:25,080 --> 01:08:29,000 Speaker 2: and Drake May just boom out of nowhere, just as 1391 01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:32,639 Speaker 2: soon as I started talking about their negative offensive stats again, 1392 01:08:32,680 --> 01:08:36,559 Speaker 2: I can ignite anybody in literally a snap of a thing. 1393 01:08:36,800 --> 01:08:38,640 Speaker 2: You know, there's eleven seconds left and a half the 1394 01:08:38,720 --> 01:08:41,840 Speaker 2: boom forty yard touchdown pass. Yeah, I mean, just like that. 1395 01:08:41,880 --> 01:08:42,080 Speaker 11: I was. 1396 01:08:42,479 --> 01:08:44,040 Speaker 2: I was like, you know, okay, it had been a 1397 01:08:44,120 --> 01:08:47,200 Speaker 2: terrible first half and Drake May makes that throw, and 1398 01:08:47,360 --> 01:08:50,719 Speaker 2: you know how it is rich you're a team. Imagine 1399 01:08:50,720 --> 01:08:53,720 Speaker 2: being an offensive lineman on this Patriots team. It was 1400 01:08:53,760 --> 01:08:56,559 Speaker 2: a bad team last year. Coaching change made not a 1401 01:08:56,560 --> 01:08:59,040 Speaker 2: good team this year. Now you throw the rookie in 1402 01:08:59,080 --> 01:09:02,680 Speaker 2: a quarterback against a pretty good team, obviously, the Houston Texans, 1403 01:09:03,120 --> 01:09:07,080 Speaker 2: and just one play like that, especially going into halftime, 1404 01:09:08,200 --> 01:09:10,400 Speaker 2: can change the whole dynamic of that team as they 1405 01:09:10,400 --> 01:09:11,439 Speaker 2: come out in the second half. 1406 01:09:11,640 --> 01:09:13,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, there's no question about it. Look, I got to 1407 01:09:13,800 --> 01:09:17,080 Speaker 4: call a Holiday Bowl. I was broadcasting when Drake May 1408 01:09:17,120 --> 01:09:19,920 Speaker 4: faced the Oregon Ducks back in what was that twenty 1409 01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:20,519 Speaker 4: twenty two? 1410 01:09:20,600 --> 01:09:22,200 Speaker 1: I guess, and I. 1411 01:09:22,080 --> 01:09:25,840 Speaker 4: Was impressed back then as I am now with his arm. 1412 01:09:26,240 --> 01:09:28,519 Speaker 4: I mean, he has just incredible arm talent. You saw 1413 01:09:28,520 --> 01:09:30,599 Speaker 4: it on that throw down the sideline for the score 1414 01:09:31,160 --> 01:09:34,120 Speaker 4: in that game against Houston. You're going to see it 1415 01:09:34,160 --> 01:09:37,479 Speaker 4: throughout the season. Now he can make real throws. Now, 1416 01:09:37,479 --> 01:09:39,720 Speaker 4: the question is can he have an understanding of the 1417 01:09:39,760 --> 01:09:42,320 Speaker 4: offense and what the Patriots are trying to do? Have 1418 01:09:42,439 --> 01:09:45,840 Speaker 4: they worked with him getting route concepts that he's comfortable 1419 01:09:45,840 --> 01:09:49,400 Speaker 4: throwing too, like he did in college. That the things 1420 01:09:49,400 --> 01:09:52,840 Speaker 4: are communicated in a way that simplifies it for Drake 1421 01:09:52,880 --> 01:09:55,880 Speaker 4: May so he can go out there and react and 1422 01:09:55,920 --> 01:09:58,000 Speaker 4: play instead of overthinking things. 1423 01:09:58,320 --> 01:09:59,240 Speaker 1: That's a really. 1424 01:09:59,000 --> 01:10:02,360 Speaker 4: Important part of this process that I think sort of 1425 01:10:02,479 --> 01:10:06,559 Speaker 4: doesn't get spoken about enough. When quarterbacks think and when 1426 01:10:06,560 --> 01:10:10,679 Speaker 4: they're over analyzing, they oftentimes throw interceptions, or they hold 1427 01:10:10,720 --> 01:10:13,000 Speaker 4: onto the ball too long and they get sacked, or 1428 01:10:13,040 --> 01:10:15,719 Speaker 4: they don't know where to go with the protection call, 1429 01:10:15,960 --> 01:10:17,960 Speaker 4: and then they lose track of the play clock and 1430 01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:19,880 Speaker 4: then you have to burn a time out early and 1431 01:10:19,920 --> 01:10:22,519 Speaker 4: a half or you end up running out of time 1432 01:10:22,560 --> 01:10:24,679 Speaker 4: and getting a delay of game. All of those little 1433 01:10:24,680 --> 01:10:28,200 Speaker 4: miscues they can be blamed on the quarterback shore and 1434 01:10:28,240 --> 01:10:30,439 Speaker 4: some of them are the quarterback's fault. These are things 1435 01:10:30,479 --> 01:10:32,559 Speaker 4: that maybe they've already had down. 1436 01:10:32,360 --> 01:10:32,800 Speaker 1: For a while. 1437 01:10:33,120 --> 01:10:36,640 Speaker 4: But sometimes it's the coach. Sometimes it's the offensive coordinator 1438 01:10:36,680 --> 01:10:39,400 Speaker 4: trying to do too much. You have to present a 1439 01:10:39,479 --> 01:10:43,400 Speaker 4: very complex surface to the defense you're playing against, but 1440 01:10:43,439 --> 01:10:46,639 Speaker 4: you have to simplify things for a young quarterback so 1441 01:10:46,680 --> 01:10:48,720 Speaker 4: he can just go out there and play football. 1442 01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:51,000 Speaker 1: And right now it looks like he's out there playing 1443 01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:52,120 Speaker 1: football for the Patriots. 1444 01:10:52,160 --> 01:10:55,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, and again he's like Josh Allen. Right, he's a 1445 01:10:55,439 --> 01:10:58,519 Speaker 2: big quarterback, he has a big arm, and he's able 1446 01:10:58,600 --> 01:11:02,000 Speaker 2: to run the football well. Couple of carries fifteen yards. 1447 01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:04,120 Speaker 2: He had an eleven yard run in this game. So 1448 01:11:04,280 --> 01:11:08,280 Speaker 2: he has those qualities as a quarterback. And if New 1449 01:11:08,280 --> 01:11:13,360 Speaker 2: England can fully, you know, embrace all the things he 1450 01:11:13,400 --> 01:11:15,080 Speaker 2: can do on a football field, they could be a 1451 01:11:15,160 --> 01:11:17,120 Speaker 2: much better team. So his first half, thanks to the 1452 01:11:17,160 --> 01:11:20,840 Speaker 2: touchdown pass pretty respectable eight of fourteen hundred and five yards. 1453 01:11:20,880 --> 01:11:24,040 Speaker 2: He had an interception early, the touchdown late. Two carries 1454 01:11:24,080 --> 01:11:26,599 Speaker 2: for fifteen yards. Meanwhile, on the other side, CJ. Stroud 1455 01:11:26,640 --> 01:11:29,320 Speaker 2: eleven to seventeen, only one hundred and four yards passing a 1456 01:11:29,320 --> 01:11:32,880 Speaker 2: couple of touchdowns, had an interception there. All right, I'm 1457 01:11:32,920 --> 01:11:36,120 Speaker 2: watching what could this be the last half of coaching 1458 01:11:36,120 --> 01:11:38,720 Speaker 2: for Nick Sirianni with the Eagles right now ten to ten. 1459 01:11:39,120 --> 01:11:42,360 Speaker 2: They have just started the third quarter, and the Browns 1460 01:11:42,400 --> 01:11:47,480 Speaker 2: have the ball first, and they've already driven into Philadelphia territory. 1461 01:11:47,520 --> 01:11:49,439 Speaker 2: They have a second and four right now at the 1462 01:11:49,439 --> 01:11:53,640 Speaker 2: Philly thirty two yard line, and I just want to 1463 01:11:53,680 --> 01:11:55,519 Speaker 2: you know, we just talked about how the Drake may 1464 01:11:55,640 --> 01:11:57,920 Speaker 2: touchdown pass before the half, because you know, it's really 1465 01:11:58,080 --> 01:12:00,760 Speaker 2: ignite that locker room. I don't think the Eagles locker 1466 01:12:00,840 --> 01:12:03,599 Speaker 2: room was after the block field goal for a touchdown 1467 01:12:03,640 --> 01:12:05,040 Speaker 2: for the Browns. How let go? 1468 01:12:06,280 --> 01:12:07,080 Speaker 1: Yeah exactly. 1469 01:12:07,280 --> 01:12:09,360 Speaker 2: I mean, if you're Sirianni, what do you say. 1470 01:12:09,280 --> 01:12:10,000 Speaker 1: Things like that? 1471 01:12:10,520 --> 01:12:13,479 Speaker 4: They honestly have an enormous effect on a team, because 1472 01:12:13,520 --> 01:12:16,800 Speaker 4: we always talk about in squad meetings leading up to 1473 01:12:16,880 --> 01:12:21,479 Speaker 4: games and even on the sideline or pregame right before 1474 01:12:21,479 --> 01:12:24,679 Speaker 4: you go out there, Hey, listen, we're gonna be tough 1475 01:12:24,720 --> 01:12:27,080 Speaker 4: here in the second quarter, going in at halftime, especially 1476 01:12:27,120 --> 01:12:29,519 Speaker 4: when you're giving your opponent the ball or you want 1477 01:12:29,520 --> 01:12:32,360 Speaker 4: to score. You want to bracket the half with scorers. 1478 01:12:32,479 --> 01:12:35,080 Speaker 4: This way, you can have a fourteen point swing in 1479 01:12:35,120 --> 01:12:36,840 Speaker 4: the middle of the game. And that's exactly what the 1480 01:12:36,880 --> 01:12:39,559 Speaker 4: Browns did, you know, potentially, as they're driving now with 1481 01:12:39,600 --> 01:12:42,280 Speaker 4: the ball starting the second half, and that's exactly what 1482 01:12:42,360 --> 01:12:44,920 Speaker 4: you're trying to prevent. If you're the Philadelphia Eagles, special 1483 01:12:44,960 --> 01:12:47,479 Speaker 4: teams let them down, leads to a score. The Browns 1484 01:12:47,880 --> 01:12:52,760 Speaker 4: absolutely needed that score because they've been listless offensively, and 1485 01:12:52,800 --> 01:12:54,920 Speaker 4: so you get on the board there and if that 1486 01:12:55,040 --> 01:12:57,680 Speaker 4: ignites their offense enough, all of a sudden, the Philadelphia 1487 01:12:57,720 --> 01:13:00,840 Speaker 4: Eagles are in a dog fight and they have looked 1488 01:13:00,840 --> 01:13:02,840 Speaker 4: like they didn't get off the bus in the first half. 1489 01:13:02,840 --> 01:13:04,680 Speaker 2: All right, So the Browns are gonna line up for 1490 01:13:04,800 --> 01:13:07,360 Speaker 2: a field goal right now. This is going to be 1491 01:13:07,439 --> 01:13:10,080 Speaker 2: a fifty two yard field goal to try to give 1492 01:13:10,120 --> 01:13:13,840 Speaker 2: the Cleveland Browns the lead on the road against the Eagles. 1493 01:13:13,880 --> 01:13:18,400 Speaker 2: And the kick is no good. It is missed, So 1494 01:13:18,600 --> 01:13:21,400 Speaker 2: ten ten it remains Eagles and Browns. All right, we 1495 01:13:21,520 --> 01:13:25,320 Speaker 2: roll on here. Second half's underway already around the NFL 1496 01:13:25,479 --> 01:13:28,840 Speaker 2: six games to talk about. This is Red Zone Radio. 1497 01:13:29,120 --> 01:13:32,880 Speaker 13: Twenty five seconds remaining, second quarter, fifty seven yard field 1498 01:13:32,920 --> 01:13:36,479 Speaker 13: goal try high snap is down. Elliott blocked, Miles blocked, 1499 01:13:36,479 --> 01:13:39,200 Speaker 13: it picked up by the Browns running down the sideline. 1500 01:13:39,280 --> 01:13:41,479 Speaker 2: Rodney McCleod Dee may. 1501 01:13:41,720 --> 01:13:46,839 Speaker 14: Go summersault into the end zone, touch down Brown. 1502 01:13:48,479 --> 01:13:50,880 Speaker 2: That's the Browns Radio network. That was the block kicker 1503 01:13:50,960 --> 01:13:54,599 Speaker 2: right before the half that resulted in a ten ten tie. 1504 01:13:55,120 --> 01:13:58,160 Speaker 2: Browns try to take the lead, but missed the field goals. 1505 01:13:58,200 --> 01:14:00,679 Speaker 2: So we are now ten ten still Brown and Eagles 1506 01:14:01,000 --> 01:14:03,639 Speaker 2: nine minutes to go in the third quarter in that game. 1507 01:14:03,680 --> 01:14:06,080 Speaker 2: Once again, this is Red Zone Radio. Steve Hartman and 1508 01:14:06,479 --> 01:14:09,400 Speaker 2: Rich Hornberger with you. We are live from the tirerack 1509 01:14:09,479 --> 01:14:11,479 Speaker 2: dot Com studios. All right, let's give you a quick 1510 01:14:11,520 --> 01:14:14,800 Speaker 2: rundown of the scores right now. At halftime, Packers lead 1511 01:14:14,840 --> 01:14:18,040 Speaker 2: the Cardinals twenty four to ten. Second half just underweight. 1512 01:14:18,120 --> 01:14:21,479 Speaker 2: Titans and Colts are tied to ten. Also just underway 1513 01:14:21,520 --> 01:14:24,519 Speaker 2: in the second half, Texans lead the Patriots twenty one 1514 01:14:24,560 --> 01:14:27,560 Speaker 2: to seven. It's at the half. Saints lead the Buccaneers 1515 01:14:27,600 --> 01:14:30,040 Speaker 2: twenty seven to twenty four. We mentioned the Browns and 1516 01:14:30,080 --> 01:14:33,200 Speaker 2: Eagles tied to ten, and the Ravens have a seventeen 1517 01:14:33,240 --> 01:14:36,400 Speaker 2: to thirteen League Commander's just got a fueld goal just 1518 01:14:36,560 --> 01:14:40,760 Speaker 2: underway there in the second half. So the story so 1519 01:14:40,920 --> 01:14:43,120 Speaker 2: far has been a crazy game between the Saints and 1520 01:14:43,120 --> 01:14:47,560 Speaker 2: the Buccaneers, a inept game between the Browns and the Eagles, 1521 01:14:47,680 --> 01:14:50,280 Speaker 2: to say the least. We haven't talked a lot about 1522 01:14:50,280 --> 01:14:54,040 Speaker 2: this Colts Titans game rich As we mentioned Joe Flacco 1523 01:14:54,120 --> 01:14:56,519 Speaker 2: back in at quarterback today, It's been a pretty ordinary 1524 01:14:56,600 --> 01:14:59,240 Speaker 2: day for him. On the other side, you have Will Levis, 1525 01:14:59,680 --> 01:15:03,680 Speaker 2: who he has ten for fourteen fifty six yards. I 1526 01:15:03,720 --> 01:15:05,880 Speaker 2: don't know what his yards per attempt is this year, 1527 01:15:05,920 --> 01:15:08,760 Speaker 2: but it's got to be pathetic. He does have one 1528 01:15:08,800 --> 01:15:12,080 Speaker 2: touchdown pass in this game, but they're just not getting 1529 01:15:12,080 --> 01:15:13,680 Speaker 2: the ball down the field. We knew this was going 1530 01:15:13,760 --> 01:15:17,320 Speaker 2: to be a struggle year for the Titans. But the 1531 01:15:17,400 --> 01:15:20,559 Speaker 2: question again is do you continue to move forward with 1532 01:15:20,640 --> 01:15:23,360 Speaker 2: Will Levis or is that going to be a priority 1533 01:15:23,439 --> 01:15:25,839 Speaker 2: one to try to find a quarterback in the draft. 1534 01:15:28,000 --> 01:15:31,320 Speaker 4: We looked to the draft and you don't want to 1535 01:15:31,360 --> 01:15:36,200 Speaker 4: get it wrong this many times at quarterback consecutively. But 1536 01:15:36,280 --> 01:15:41,640 Speaker 4: if you think about where the Titans have selected quarterbacks, 1537 01:15:41,680 --> 01:15:44,920 Speaker 4: it was a second round selection for Malik Willis and 1538 01:15:44,960 --> 01:15:48,160 Speaker 4: now Will Levis same thing, another second round selection. So 1539 01:15:48,240 --> 01:15:53,200 Speaker 4: you haven't in terms of draft capital really overspent. Now, 1540 01:15:53,280 --> 01:15:55,519 Speaker 4: you don't want to miss on second rounders because, as 1541 01:15:55,560 --> 01:15:57,760 Speaker 4: you know, Steve, you've been following the game forever. I've 1542 01:15:57,760 --> 01:16:01,280 Speaker 4: played in the game. Many second rounders. They are actual 1543 01:16:01,479 --> 01:16:04,960 Speaker 4: NFL starters and Pro Bowlers and all pro players. 1544 01:16:04,960 --> 01:16:07,559 Speaker 2: I mean, so you're counting on them to be at 1545 01:16:07,560 --> 01:16:09,240 Speaker 2: the very least starters. 1546 01:16:09,920 --> 01:16:12,360 Speaker 4: At the very least you're counting on them to be starters. 1547 01:16:12,439 --> 01:16:14,880 Speaker 4: But many of these players, they blossom into some of 1548 01:16:14,920 --> 01:16:18,120 Speaker 4: the best players in the league. So it almost feels 1549 01:16:18,160 --> 01:16:22,280 Speaker 4: like you're getting a first rounder on a value And unfortunately, 1550 01:16:22,640 --> 01:16:25,680 Speaker 4: both of those starting quarterbacks, at least in Tennessee look 1551 01:16:25,800 --> 01:16:29,240 Speaker 4: kind of like the value menu options. They're they show 1552 01:16:29,360 --> 01:16:32,720 Speaker 4: glimpses of being great. They show you that maybe they 1553 01:16:32,720 --> 01:16:35,280 Speaker 4: could be great, but they weren't ready. So they moved 1554 01:16:35,280 --> 01:16:37,680 Speaker 4: on from Malik Willis, and it looks like they'll do 1555 01:16:37,720 --> 01:16:40,000 Speaker 4: the same with will Levis unless he really turns the 1556 01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:41,120 Speaker 4: season around for Tennessee. 1557 01:16:41,200 --> 01:16:43,600 Speaker 2: All right, Ravens on the move right now. They have 1558 01:16:43,920 --> 01:16:48,360 Speaker 2: moved deep into Commanders. Tore Ravens lead this game. Seventeen thirteen, 1559 01:16:48,520 --> 01:16:52,599 Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson had a run that was a design quarterback run. 1560 01:16:52,680 --> 01:16:55,360 Speaker 2: It wasn't some kind of scramble. It was snapped to 1561 01:16:55,439 --> 01:16:58,599 Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson and he just took off on a long run. 1562 01:16:58,640 --> 01:17:01,640 Speaker 2: And this is again the dynamic in his game that 1563 01:17:01,760 --> 01:17:04,840 Speaker 2: just separates him from all the other quarterbacks, his ability 1564 01:17:04,920 --> 01:17:07,479 Speaker 2: to run the football. And you think back to the 1565 01:17:07,479 --> 01:17:10,280 Speaker 2: Michael vic days. It wasn't just that Michael Vick was 1566 01:17:10,360 --> 01:17:13,320 Speaker 2: fast and he knew how to run like a running back. 1567 01:17:13,439 --> 01:17:16,360 Speaker 2: That's right, and that is exactly how Lamar Jackson is. 1568 01:17:16,400 --> 01:17:19,800 Speaker 2: They understand the dynamics of running. They're not scrambling, they're 1569 01:17:19,840 --> 01:17:22,960 Speaker 2: actually running. And what a bonus that is to any 1570 01:17:23,040 --> 01:17:25,439 Speaker 2: kind of offense. So the Ravens now a second and 1571 01:17:25,479 --> 01:17:27,840 Speaker 2: eight at the Washington nine yard line. 1572 01:17:27,920 --> 01:17:30,519 Speaker 4: Yeah, when you have a mobile quarterback who knows how 1573 01:17:30,560 --> 01:17:33,320 Speaker 4: to make tacklers miss in the open field, what you 1574 01:17:33,400 --> 01:17:36,920 Speaker 4: have is a whole nother dimension that defenses need to 1575 01:17:36,960 --> 01:17:39,160 Speaker 4: worry about. So you can't rush the way you like 1576 01:17:39,240 --> 01:17:41,439 Speaker 4: to rush. You can't blitz the way you like to blitz. 1577 01:17:41,479 --> 01:17:43,640 Speaker 4: Because if you leave your defense and man coverage all 1578 01:17:43,680 --> 01:17:46,679 Speaker 4: the day, all day long, what happens, Well, soon as 1579 01:17:47,280 --> 01:17:50,520 Speaker 4: the mobile quarterback like Lamar Jackson, who can break tackles 1580 01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:54,840 Speaker 4: breaks contain his eyes are downfield and if you have 1581 01:17:55,000 --> 01:17:58,240 Speaker 4: one man coverage player slip up or lose track of 1582 01:17:58,280 --> 01:18:02,040 Speaker 4: his receiver. Were talking about an explosive play down field, 1583 01:18:02,520 --> 01:18:05,960 Speaker 4: and so it changes everything. And Lamar has been I mean, now, 1584 01:18:06,200 --> 01:18:08,720 Speaker 4: durability has been an issue, but he has played when 1585 01:18:08,720 --> 01:18:12,400 Speaker 4: he's healthy at an MVP level every season he's been 1586 01:18:12,439 --> 01:18:15,240 Speaker 4: healthy for. And so the Ravens with Derrick Henry in 1587 01:18:15,280 --> 01:18:17,880 Speaker 4: the backfield, who's kind of off the scrap heap when 1588 01:18:17,920 --> 01:18:21,280 Speaker 4: he signed with Baltimore, and and the fact that they've stayed, 1589 01:18:21,640 --> 01:18:24,840 Speaker 4: you know, consistent with the way they've coached up Lamar 1590 01:18:24,960 --> 01:18:27,120 Speaker 4: Jackson like, Hey, we're not gonna ask you to pump 1591 01:18:27,160 --> 01:18:28,840 Speaker 4: the ball down the field. We're not gonna ask you 1592 01:18:28,880 --> 01:18:31,320 Speaker 4: to be a vertical quarterback. We're gonna ask you to 1593 01:18:31,320 --> 01:18:33,200 Speaker 4: be involved in the run game. We're gonna ask you 1594 01:18:33,280 --> 01:18:35,479 Speaker 4: to complete pass his close to line of scrimmage. Let's 1595 01:18:35,520 --> 01:18:37,400 Speaker 4: go win a whole bunch of ball games. That's exactly 1596 01:18:37,439 --> 01:18:38,680 Speaker 4: what the Baltimore Ravens do. 1597 01:18:38,720 --> 01:18:41,960 Speaker 2: All right. So on a third and long play, Lamar 1598 01:18:42,080 --> 01:18:45,400 Speaker 2: Jackson scrambled, he threw the ball out of the end zone. 1599 01:18:45,600 --> 01:18:48,280 Speaker 2: There was a hold against the Ravens. That penalty will 1600 01:18:48,320 --> 01:18:52,320 Speaker 2: be declined, so the Ravens now will attempt a field goal. 1601 01:18:52,760 --> 01:18:57,440 Speaker 2: Leading this game by a score of seventeen to a thirteen. 1602 01:18:57,920 --> 01:19:01,160 Speaker 2: Eagles have the ball back after the Brown missfield goal 1603 01:19:01,320 --> 01:19:03,720 Speaker 2: and they're trying to move right now. Jalen Hurts ten 1604 01:19:03,760 --> 01:19:06,160 Speaker 2: of eighteen one hundred and forty four yards not great, 1605 01:19:06,200 --> 01:19:08,920 Speaker 2: but remember he started the game zero for five h 1606 01:19:09,160 --> 01:19:11,439 Speaker 2: so at least they're showing some light there. And we 1607 01:19:11,680 --> 01:19:14,920 Speaker 2: failed to mansion After the Patriots got that touchdown to 1608 01:19:15,000 --> 01:19:19,920 Speaker 2: cut the halftime lead to fourteen to seven against the Texans. 1609 01:19:19,960 --> 01:19:22,759 Speaker 2: The Texans came back at the start of the third 1610 01:19:22,880 --> 01:19:27,760 Speaker 2: quarter and they got the score on the What was 1611 01:19:27,800 --> 01:19:28,800 Speaker 2: that play was? 1612 01:19:28,920 --> 01:19:29,200 Speaker 1: It was? 1613 01:19:29,560 --> 01:19:32,920 Speaker 2: What happened was the Patriots fumbled the ball and then 1614 01:19:33,320 --> 01:19:38,479 Speaker 2: the Texans got the touchdown, and that was I forget 1615 01:19:38,560 --> 01:19:41,080 Speaker 2: the play here? What is it there? All right? I'm 1616 01:19:41,080 --> 01:19:42,760 Speaker 2: gonna find this before we get to the top of 1617 01:19:42,800 --> 01:19:44,599 Speaker 2: the ark. Can I do this well?

And on 1639 01:20:54,479 --> 01:20:57,679 Speaker 2: the call is a man that Rich I share memories 1640 01:20:57,720 --> 01:21:01,320 Speaker 2: with going back to the nineteen eighties when you were born. Okay, 1641 01:21:01,760 --> 01:21:04,040 Speaker 2: this is how that my former partner in crime here 1642 01:21:04,080 --> 01:21:07,000 Speaker 2: at Fox Sports Radio, the great Chris Myers, is joining 1643 01:21:07,040 --> 01:21:08,880 Speaker 2: us right now. Chris, how are you today, man? 1644 01:21:09,320 --> 01:21:11,200 Speaker 10: I'm good and it's good to be on with you. Yes, 1645 01:21:11,240 --> 01:21:13,920 Speaker 10: we work together at Rich. We still survived, still going. 1646 01:21:14,560 --> 01:21:18,719 Speaker 2: Yes, back when Chris came out to the West Coast 1647 01:21:18,760 --> 01:21:22,040 Speaker 2: and I was still working with the LA Raiders. That's 1648 01:21:22,080 --> 01:21:24,719 Speaker 2: how far back it goes with Myers and Hartman. But Chris, 1649 01:21:24,760 --> 01:21:28,000 Speaker 2: let's talk about this game and start with this Panthers team. 1650 01:21:28,400 --> 01:21:31,200 Speaker 2: You know, the knock defenders of Bryce Young, and both 1651 01:21:31,280 --> 01:21:33,760 Speaker 2: Rich and I really were trying to defend Bryce Young 1652 01:21:34,160 --> 01:21:36,280 Speaker 2: was that he didn't have a lot of talent around him. 1653 01:21:36,320 --> 01:21:38,480 Speaker 2: And then all of a sudden, Andy Dalton gets inserted 1654 01:21:38,840 --> 01:21:42,360 Speaker 2: and their offense look very, very different. So what's the 1655 01:21:42,520 --> 01:21:45,800 Speaker 2: mood right now around this Panthers organization. 1656 01:21:46,479 --> 01:21:50,760 Speaker 10: Well, they're still trying to figure out the quarterback situation, 1657 01:21:50,880 --> 01:21:54,280 Speaker 10: which is sad because you invested so much in Bryce 1658 01:21:54,360 --> 01:21:57,280 Speaker 10: Young and with a head coaching change, so an offensive 1659 01:21:57,280 --> 01:22:01,000 Speaker 10: philosophy change. He had already been through three different offenses 1660 01:22:01,040 --> 01:22:03,519 Speaker 10: coming into this year with the coaching change last year 1661 01:22:03,520 --> 01:22:06,320 Speaker 10: when Frank Reich was fired and brought in to builds 1662 01:22:06,360 --> 01:22:09,080 Speaker 10: him up, so Dalton gave him the best chance to win. 1663 01:22:09,120 --> 01:22:11,639 Speaker 10: That's a cliche, but I think that the other players 1664 01:22:11,680 --> 01:22:14,240 Speaker 10: on the team got tired of, you know, busting their 1665 01:22:14,280 --> 01:22:17,479 Speaker 10: butts defense and then running routes on offense and having 1666 01:22:17,479 --> 01:22:20,439 Speaker 10: a quarterback again not all his fault, but not deliver 1667 01:22:20,520 --> 01:22:22,000 Speaker 10: the ball or turn it over and put them in 1668 01:22:22,040 --> 01:22:25,360 Speaker 10: a hole. So at one in four they are playing 1669 01:22:25,400 --> 01:22:28,240 Speaker 10: to try to stay in games and be competitive, but 1670 01:22:28,280 --> 01:22:31,120 Speaker 10: they still haven't decided as Bryce Young their quarterback of 1671 01:22:31,160 --> 01:22:33,680 Speaker 10: the future. We know Andy Dalton is not, but in 1672 01:22:33,720 --> 01:22:36,080 Speaker 10: the meantime, he's just trying to help them hang in 1673 01:22:36,120 --> 01:22:38,839 Speaker 10: there in the NFC South, in a division that Atlanta 1674 01:22:38,880 --> 01:22:42,200 Speaker 10: is obviously watching that crazy New Orleans Tampa game because 1675 01:22:42,200 --> 01:22:44,320 Speaker 10: they came into the day as the leaders in the 1676 01:22:44,360 --> 01:22:46,880 Speaker 10: division and hope to stay there with a win here 1677 01:22:46,920 --> 01:22:47,360 Speaker 10: on the road. 1678 01:22:47,720 --> 01:22:52,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, Atlanta with two straight wins against NFC South foes, 1679 01:22:52,120 --> 01:22:56,160 Speaker 4: looking for their third straight against Carolina today. Both of 1680 01:22:56,160 --> 01:22:59,680 Speaker 4: those games though Chris really tight. How has Atlanta been 1681 01:22:59,720 --> 01:23:02,599 Speaker 4: able to win in crunch time. 1682 01:23:03,800 --> 01:23:05,040 Speaker 1: What's the ethos there? 1683 01:23:05,720 --> 01:23:07,800 Speaker 10: Well, I think it's Kirk Cousins and having just what 1684 01:23:07,880 --> 01:23:10,400 Speaker 10: we talked about with Carolina, and you notice teams that 1685 01:23:10,479 --> 01:23:13,840 Speaker 10: don't have a veteran quarterback who's been there and experienced, 1686 01:23:14,560 --> 01:23:16,360 Speaker 10: who know how to win close games with at the 1687 01:23:16,400 --> 01:23:20,080 Speaker 10: Falcons every game this year, all five have been one 1688 01:23:20,080 --> 01:23:23,519 Speaker 10: scoring games, and the Pittsburgh loss seems like years ago. 1689 01:23:23,560 --> 01:23:26,439 Speaker 10: And their offense has really grown a lot in that time, 1690 01:23:26,760 --> 01:23:28,840 Speaker 10: especially in the back to back games and Cousins coming 1691 01:23:28,880 --> 01:23:32,479 Speaker 10: off that five hundred yard passing performance, so they feel 1692 01:23:32,640 --> 01:23:35,880 Speaker 10: like their offense with it is gelling together now with 1693 01:23:35,960 --> 01:23:37,800 Speaker 10: the talent they have, they can run the ball a 1694 01:23:37,800 --> 01:23:40,559 Speaker 10: little bit more efficiently. In fact, you know, you could 1695 01:23:40,560 --> 01:23:43,840 Speaker 10: make it an argument Rich that this offense potentially could 1696 01:23:43,840 --> 01:23:46,800 Speaker 10: be one of the best in the NFC if all 1697 01:23:46,800 --> 01:23:48,800 Speaker 10: of the working parts, you know, with Moody and Drake 1698 01:23:48,840 --> 01:23:51,920 Speaker 10: London coming off a career best game, Cousins at the 1699 01:23:51,920 --> 01:23:54,919 Speaker 10: controls against something they haven't had since Matt Ryan retired. 1700 01:23:55,120 --> 01:23:56,920 Speaker 2: I know a lot of people who were shocked when 1701 01:23:57,240 --> 01:24:02,040 Speaker 2: Raheem Morrison now Bill Belichick got that job in Atlanta. Chris, 1702 01:24:02,080 --> 01:24:05,240 Speaker 2: you know Raheem Morris obviously from his first head coaching 1703 01:24:05,320 --> 01:24:08,160 Speaker 2: run with Tampa Bay back in the day. Give us 1704 01:24:08,160 --> 01:24:11,040 Speaker 2: a little sense of how he was then and how 1705 01:24:11,080 --> 01:24:14,280 Speaker 2: he is now and how maybe he is I don't know, 1706 01:24:14,439 --> 01:24:17,120 Speaker 2: evolved as a head coach to get the Falcons off 1707 01:24:17,120 --> 01:24:18,080 Speaker 2: to this winning start. 1708 01:24:18,560 --> 01:24:20,720 Speaker 10: Yeh, Steve, and he has evolved, and he'll admitted to 1709 01:24:20,760 --> 01:24:22,760 Speaker 10: you when he ran the bus and it was a 1710 01:24:22,880 --> 01:24:25,679 Speaker 10: takeover of post Gruden and he was young and maybe 1711 01:24:25,720 --> 01:24:29,360 Speaker 10: not as disciplined himself or with his team and grew 1712 01:24:29,400 --> 01:24:31,760 Speaker 10: from that. And I think an advantage she'll say is 1713 01:24:32,280 --> 01:24:34,360 Speaker 10: he's coached since on both sides of the ball. He's 1714 01:24:34,360 --> 01:24:36,360 Speaker 10: been a defensive coordinator with the Rams. He was a 1715 01:24:36,360 --> 01:24:40,040 Speaker 10: receivers coach in Atlanta in between. In fact, he was 1716 01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:42,960 Speaker 10: an interim head coach for Atlanta when they had a 1717 01:24:43,000 --> 01:24:46,640 Speaker 10: coaching change before they hired Arthur Smith and thought he 1718 01:24:46,720 --> 01:24:48,840 Speaker 10: might get the job then. So they remember him in 1719 01:24:48,920 --> 01:24:51,400 Speaker 10: bringing him back, and they wanted somebody to fit into 1720 01:24:51,400 --> 01:24:54,960 Speaker 10: the organization that was a likable guy, but an experienced guy, 1721 01:24:55,040 --> 01:24:57,400 Speaker 10: and Raheem brought all of that. He really relates well 1722 01:24:57,439 --> 01:24:59,439 Speaker 10: to his players. I guess the one thing is he 1723 01:24:59,520 --> 01:25:01,800 Speaker 10: two nights. Can he be tough when he needs to be? Well, 1724 01:25:01,840 --> 01:25:04,800 Speaker 10: that's what assistant coaches are for. And he brought a 1725 01:25:04,880 --> 01:25:08,679 Speaker 10: lot of familiar face especially on offense with Zach Robinson 1726 01:25:08,680 --> 01:25:11,120 Speaker 10: from the Sean McVay offense, and that's the kind of 1727 01:25:11,120 --> 01:25:13,639 Speaker 10: offense that they want to run, which makes Kirk Cousins happy. 1728 01:25:13,920 --> 01:25:16,280 Speaker 10: And Raheem at his hard is more of a defensive guy, 1729 01:25:16,560 --> 01:25:19,559 Speaker 10: but he certainly is well appreciated, and I think with 1730 01:25:19,680 --> 01:25:21,599 Speaker 10: the talent they have on this team now, the defense 1731 01:25:21,640 --> 01:25:23,720 Speaker 10: hasn't played its best, especially up front. They got to 1732 01:25:23,720 --> 01:25:25,439 Speaker 10: stop the run. They're giving up one hundred and forty 1733 01:25:25,479 --> 01:25:27,599 Speaker 10: yards a game, and he's admitted that, he said, that's 1734 01:25:27,600 --> 01:25:29,960 Speaker 10: something we're going to have to work on. But Jesse 1735 01:25:30,040 --> 01:25:31,880 Speaker 10: Bates in the second area are solid, and I think 1736 01:25:31,920 --> 01:25:34,479 Speaker 10: I think Raheem's been really a good situation and very 1737 01:25:34,520 --> 01:25:38,599 Speaker 10: popular among Atlanta fans so far and ownership as well. 1738 01:25:39,000 --> 01:25:41,519 Speaker 4: The one in four Carolina Panthers will be hosting the 1739 01:25:41,520 --> 01:25:45,080 Speaker 4: Atlanta Falcons later on on Fox, Chris Myers joining us. 1740 01:25:45,080 --> 01:25:47,280 Speaker 4: He'll be on the call for the game. You mentioned 1741 01:25:47,280 --> 01:25:51,880 Speaker 4: that Morris has this upbeat personality, super positive. Dave Canal 1742 01:25:51,960 --> 01:25:54,519 Speaker 4: has kind of labeled the same way, super upbeat guy. 1743 01:25:54,600 --> 01:25:57,880 Speaker 4: Trying to keep this team afloat after a two win 1744 01:25:58,000 --> 01:26:01,080 Speaker 4: season last year, only one win to speak of this year. 1745 01:26:01,160 --> 01:26:03,320 Speaker 4: Do you think it's working with Canalis in Carolina? 1746 01:26:04,040 --> 01:26:07,080 Speaker 10: Well, it's too early to judge, but it isn't working 1747 01:26:07,120 --> 01:26:10,120 Speaker 10: because of what already the way the quarterback situation is handled. 1748 01:26:10,160 --> 01:26:12,639 Speaker 10: And what's unknown is whether that was all his call 1749 01:26:12,760 --> 01:26:15,040 Speaker 10: or ownership said let's get Dalton out there so that 1750 01:26:15,439 --> 01:26:18,080 Speaker 10: we don't embarrass ourselves. And where are we going with 1751 01:26:18,240 --> 01:26:20,600 Speaker 10: Bryce Young? I mean he can he develop with that 1752 01:26:20,680 --> 01:26:22,800 Speaker 10: investment or do we really need to move on from that? 1753 01:26:22,880 --> 01:26:25,280 Speaker 10: But Canalis, you're around him, and you spend time. This 1754 01:26:25,360 --> 01:26:26,479 Speaker 10: was a rapid rise for him. 1755 01:26:26,560 --> 01:26:26,680 Speaker 1: Rick. 1756 01:26:26,720 --> 01:26:28,280 Speaker 10: It was a little bit of a surprise, all those 1757 01:26:28,400 --> 01:26:30,960 Speaker 10: years kind of in the shadows as an assistant. Just 1758 01:26:31,040 --> 01:26:33,200 Speaker 10: one year finally late in his career he gets an 1759 01:26:33,200 --> 01:26:37,400 Speaker 10: oc chance offensive coordinated with Tampa and Baker Mayfield. They 1760 01:26:37,479 --> 01:26:39,040 Speaker 10: hit it off and then all of a sudden he's 1761 01:26:39,040 --> 01:26:41,040 Speaker 10: a head coach and a place where some people didn't 1762 01:26:41,080 --> 01:26:44,479 Speaker 10: want to take the job in Carolina for various reasons. 1763 01:26:44,520 --> 01:26:47,080 Speaker 10: So he's still positive, but that can only last so 1764 01:26:47,200 --> 01:26:50,400 Speaker 10: long if you don't produce wins, regardless of who your 1765 01:26:50,439 --> 01:26:53,120 Speaker 10: quarterback is or how positive you want to be. 1766 01:26:53,240 --> 01:26:56,240 Speaker 2: When you are the loser of the magnitude, the Panthers 1767 01:26:56,240 --> 01:26:59,360 Speaker 2: have become under the ownership of David Tapper. Obviously he's 1768 01:26:59,360 --> 01:27:03,479 Speaker 2: been sacked ever since he took over ownership. I don't 1769 01:27:03,479 --> 01:27:05,920 Speaker 2: know much about Tepper other than obviously he has a 1770 01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:09,640 Speaker 2: huge bank account. He seems rather impulsive, considering there I 1771 01:27:09,680 --> 01:27:13,479 Speaker 2: had six head coaches under his regime. Does there seem 1772 01:27:13,520 --> 01:27:16,760 Speaker 2: to be a group around him of advisors? Are they 1773 01:27:16,840 --> 01:27:21,200 Speaker 2: just yes people? Does he have anybody that can basically say, look, 1774 01:27:21,280 --> 01:27:23,800 Speaker 2: we got to give this Canal, this guy an opportunity. 1775 01:27:24,479 --> 01:27:26,960 Speaker 2: We can't be this impatient. It just doesn't worked that 1776 01:27:27,040 --> 01:27:31,479 Speaker 2: way in the NFL. Or who exactly if anyone has 1777 01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:33,000 Speaker 2: the ear of David Tepper. 1778 01:27:33,520 --> 01:27:35,439 Speaker 10: Well, that's a good question, and I think that's part 1779 01:27:35,479 --> 01:27:38,240 Speaker 10: of the problem here. You change gms, somebody else took 1780 01:27:38,240 --> 01:27:41,519 Speaker 10: a fall for a draft decision that really wasn't his fault. 1781 01:27:41,600 --> 01:27:44,400 Speaker 10: Your current GM is probably not the right guy, although 1782 01:27:44,439 --> 01:27:48,320 Speaker 10: he picks Dave Canal as the coach, So you need 1783 01:27:48,360 --> 01:27:52,080 Speaker 10: to bring those guys in together, the coach, the general 1784 01:27:52,120 --> 01:27:55,519 Speaker 10: manager under the ownership. And look, Tepper has been successful 1785 01:27:55,560 --> 01:27:57,919 Speaker 10: in business. He was a minority owner of the Steelers, 1786 01:27:57,920 --> 01:27:59,439 Speaker 10: so you thought he would have had a grasp what 1787 01:27:59,560 --> 01:28:02,040 Speaker 10: put it take to build an organization, and he is trying. 1788 01:28:02,040 --> 01:28:04,560 Speaker 10: I'll give him that, and maybe he's a little impatient, 1789 01:28:05,000 --> 01:28:07,840 Speaker 10: but he's got to hire the right people together and 1790 01:28:07,840 --> 01:28:10,040 Speaker 10: then let them do their job together. I think, if 1791 01:28:10,040 --> 01:28:12,320 Speaker 10: you really want to build something here, and so far 1792 01:28:12,880 --> 01:28:15,080 Speaker 10: we haven't seen this, not without a lack of trying. 1793 01:28:15,360 --> 01:28:17,080 Speaker 10: I just think it's maybe a lack of maybe not 1794 01:28:17,160 --> 01:28:20,280 Speaker 10: picking the best people, or interference from a group of 1795 01:28:20,320 --> 01:28:21,559 Speaker 10: people that aren't working together. 1796 01:28:22,160 --> 01:28:26,160 Speaker 4: With some fireworks with close wins over divisional opponents, draft 1797 01:28:26,240 --> 01:28:29,679 Speaker 4: day sort of feels like a distant memory in Atlanta. 1798 01:28:29,800 --> 01:28:32,720 Speaker 4: But Draft Day did happen, and the Atlanta Falcons, after 1799 01:28:32,840 --> 01:28:37,280 Speaker 4: signing Kirk Cousins to a rather large quarterback contract this offseason, 1800 01:28:37,760 --> 01:28:40,120 Speaker 4: traded up and drafted Michael Pennis Junior. 1801 01:28:40,640 --> 01:28:42,040 Speaker 1: So how early of. 1802 01:28:42,000 --> 01:28:46,040 Speaker 4: A hook could Kirk Cousins have if things do start 1803 01:28:46,080 --> 01:28:50,479 Speaker 4: going sideways in Atlanta? And also, how has Michael Penix 1804 01:28:50,560 --> 01:28:53,479 Speaker 4: Junior's development been sort of behind the scenes here. 1805 01:28:54,000 --> 01:28:56,000 Speaker 10: Yeah, he hadn't played it all yet in the regular season. 1806 01:28:56,040 --> 01:28:58,320 Speaker 10: I think again, in just won preseason game. It's funny 1807 01:28:58,400 --> 01:29:00,840 Speaker 10: Rich on a day when we have five different rookie 1808 01:29:00,920 --> 01:29:04,880 Speaker 10: quarterbacks starting from Spencer Ratler to Bownicks to Drake may 1809 01:29:05,400 --> 01:29:07,519 Speaker 10: Penix is just going to sit and wait. And if 1810 01:29:07,560 --> 01:29:10,479 Speaker 10: Cousins keeps keeps having games like he had in that 1811 01:29:10,640 --> 01:29:13,800 Speaker 10: Thursday night game, the primetime game when he threw for 1812 01:29:13,880 --> 01:29:17,080 Speaker 10: over five hundred yards against the Buccaneers and won that 1813 01:29:17,240 --> 01:29:19,519 Speaker 10: game late, then I don't know if FedEx will see 1814 01:29:19,520 --> 01:29:20,320 Speaker 10: the field for a while. 1815 01:29:20,360 --> 01:29:20,479 Speaker 3: Now. 1816 01:29:20,520 --> 01:29:22,200 Speaker 10: The key is what about health, and I think that 1817 01:29:22,400 --> 01:29:23,760 Speaker 10: may have been part of it, even though it was 1818 01:29:23,800 --> 01:29:25,840 Speaker 10: still a mystery to take a high pick on a 1819 01:29:25,920 --> 01:29:29,000 Speaker 10: quarterback when you invested so much in Cousins. But his 1820 01:29:29,120 --> 01:29:32,679 Speaker 10: achilles is better, but still not to the point where 1821 01:29:32,680 --> 01:29:34,000 Speaker 10: he can roll. You know, he used to do a 1822 01:29:34,040 --> 01:29:37,280 Speaker 10: lot of those boots and rollouts in Minnesota, and that's 1823 01:29:37,280 --> 01:29:39,400 Speaker 10: still not there. So he's going to stay in the pocket, 1824 01:29:39,479 --> 01:29:41,639 Speaker 10: take the hits which he has done, deliver the ball. 1825 01:29:41,720 --> 01:29:44,360 Speaker 10: But if there is an injury there or some relapse 1826 01:29:44,400 --> 01:29:46,439 Speaker 10: in that part, so far, so good on the healing 1827 01:29:46,520 --> 01:29:48,679 Speaker 10: for Cousins, but it's just going to be a slower 1828 01:29:49,320 --> 01:29:51,479 Speaker 10: progressive step there. And so if you hear where to 1829 01:29:51,560 --> 01:29:53,960 Speaker 10: get hurts, he'd at least have a guy to step in, 1830 01:29:54,080 --> 01:29:56,400 Speaker 10: a young guy who is learning the right kinds of 1831 01:29:56,479 --> 01:30:00,120 Speaker 10: things from a true professional. But Kirk Cousins is a 1832 01:30:00,160 --> 01:30:03,040 Speaker 10: big hit in Atlanta, especially in the last two games, 1833 01:30:03,080 --> 01:30:04,880 Speaker 10: and that's where they feel like their offense is coming 1834 01:30:04,960 --> 01:30:06,760 Speaker 10: together with him. But still some would say, hey, you 1835 01:30:06,840 --> 01:30:09,719 Speaker 10: could have used that tenth pick instead of a quarterback 1836 01:30:09,760 --> 01:30:12,120 Speaker 10: for the future on a big defensive star at a 1837 01:30:12,200 --> 01:30:14,960 Speaker 10: pass rusher, which really Atlanta needs. They only have five 1838 01:30:15,120 --> 01:30:18,280 Speaker 10: sacks this year, which is the fewest in the NFL. 1839 01:30:18,640 --> 01:30:20,920 Speaker 2: All right, it'll be the Falcons on the road against 1840 01:30:20,960 --> 01:30:23,640 Speaker 2: the Panthers, big game there in the NFC South. And 1841 01:30:23,800 --> 01:30:26,679 Speaker 2: thinking about Chris, our first meeting all those years ago, 1842 01:30:26,800 --> 01:30:29,320 Speaker 2: and Rich was in the playpen, sitting in the same room. 1843 01:30:29,400 --> 01:30:32,479 Speaker 2: It was unreal that we are all the first time 1844 01:30:32,520 --> 01:30:35,280 Speaker 2: we were all there together at that time. But Chris 1845 01:30:35,360 --> 01:30:37,280 Speaker 2: always great to talk to you, all the best of 1846 01:30:37,320 --> 01:30:39,720 Speaker 2: you and your family, and we'll talk again down the road. 1847 01:30:40,160 --> 01:30:42,519 Speaker 10: As I always say, I tried cryogenics, you know, to 1848 01:30:43,120 --> 01:30:45,479 Speaker 10: freeze my look, and they froze my career instead. 1849 01:30:45,800 --> 01:30:47,640 Speaker 2: I know. 1850 01:30:47,760 --> 01:30:49,240 Speaker 5: The feeling great. 1851 01:30:49,120 --> 01:30:49,800 Speaker 10: Talking to you guys. 1852 01:30:49,840 --> 01:30:51,680 Speaker 2: All right there, he is great, Chris Myers, all right, 1853 01:30:51,680 --> 01:30:53,000 Speaker 2: com out up on the other side. We'll get you 1854 01:30:53,120 --> 01:30:56,000 Speaker 2: updated on the six games going on around the NFL. 1855 01:30:56,200 --> 01:30:58,240 Speaker 2: Right now, by the way, we're going to the fourth quarter. 1856 01:30:58,720 --> 01:31:01,200 Speaker 2: Colt's trailing the Titans seventeen to ten. I have a 1857 01:31:01,280 --> 01:31:03,880 Speaker 2: fourth and goal at the Tennessee four. He can tell 1858 01:31:04,000 --> 01:31:06,280 Speaker 2: we got some exciting finishes coming up. Keep it here. 1859 01:31:06,360 --> 01:31:07,479 Speaker 2: This is red Zone Radio. 1860 01:31:08,040 --> 01:31:09,840 Speaker 1: Heading we alone to the back field. He'll get the 1861 01:31:09,920 --> 01:31:10,439 Speaker 1: carry up. 1862 01:31:10,400 --> 01:31:15,439 Speaker 2: The middle, pig hole, touch down to the cane. Derek 1863 01:31:15,560 --> 01:31:21,200 Speaker 2: Henry strikes again and the Ravens extender lead. That's ninety 1864 01:31:21,200 --> 01:31:24,280 Speaker 2: eight Rock Ravens Radio Network, Dereck Henry. A couple of 1865 01:31:24,360 --> 01:31:27,479 Speaker 2: touchdowns today, seventy six yards on the ground. Ravens lead 1866 01:31:27,560 --> 01:31:30,840 Speaker 2: the Commanders twenty seven to thirteen. Sarr of the fourth quarter. 1867 01:31:30,920 --> 01:31:33,679 Speaker 2: Commanders now with a second ten at the Ravens thirteen 1868 01:31:33,720 --> 01:31:36,160 Speaker 2: yard line. So I mentioned earlier, I don't. 1869 01:31:35,960 --> 01:31:36,880 Speaker 1: Know why I always do this. 1870 01:31:37,080 --> 01:31:39,000 Speaker 2: You know, a three to three game wears all this 1871 01:31:39,240 --> 01:31:41,800 Speaker 2: points and now they're rolling to an obvious This is 1872 01:31:41,840 --> 01:31:45,960 Speaker 2: why there are certain people that are odds makers, and 1873 01:31:46,080 --> 01:31:48,840 Speaker 2: they they're very wealthy people because they actually know what 1874 01:31:48,880 --> 01:31:52,479 Speaker 2: they're doing, right, and why I don't gamble any of 1875 01:31:52,560 --> 01:31:55,639 Speaker 2: my money because I understand I have absolutely no idea 1876 01:31:56,120 --> 01:31:58,120 Speaker 2: what I'm talking about? All right, once again, this is 1877 01:31:58,160 --> 01:32:00,439 Speaker 2: Red Zone Radio Steve Hartman and Rich Army with you 1878 01:32:00,560 --> 01:32:03,360 Speaker 2: live from the tire Rach doc on studios. Again, Rich, 1879 01:32:03,560 --> 01:32:06,280 Speaker 2: just quickly a rundown of the scores. Right now, Packers 1880 01:32:06,400 --> 01:32:09,600 Speaker 2: lead the Cardinals thirty one to thirteen, three minutes to 1881 01:32:09,640 --> 01:32:12,000 Speaker 2: go in the third quarter. There, Titans over the Colts 1882 01:32:12,040 --> 01:32:16,200 Speaker 2: seventeen thirteen. We've got thirteen minutes to go in the fourth, 1883 01:32:16,479 --> 01:32:19,800 Speaker 2: minute to go in the third quarter, and the Patriots 1884 01:32:19,880 --> 01:32:22,840 Speaker 2: have scored. They still trail the Texans by a score 1885 01:32:22,920 --> 01:32:26,800 Speaker 2: of twenty seven to fourteen. Second half quiet so far 1886 01:32:27,000 --> 01:32:29,280 Speaker 2: in this shootout game of the first half between the 1887 01:32:29,720 --> 01:32:31,960 Speaker 2: Saints and the Bucks. Still twenty seven to twenty four, 1888 01:32:32,000 --> 01:32:34,519 Speaker 2: eight minutes to go in the third. There Eagles and 1889 01:32:34,640 --> 01:32:37,320 Speaker 2: Browns are tied at thirteen, nine and a half minutes 1890 01:32:37,360 --> 01:32:39,759 Speaker 2: to go in the fourth quarter. And as I mentioned, 1891 01:32:39,800 --> 01:32:42,479 Speaker 2: the Commanders now with a third and ten at the 1892 01:32:42,560 --> 01:32:45,240 Speaker 2: Baltimore thirteen yard line, trailing the Ravens by a score 1893 01:32:45,320 --> 01:32:47,920 Speaker 2: of twenty seven to thirteen. That game actually is sort 1894 01:32:47,960 --> 01:32:51,320 Speaker 2: of playing out the way I thought. Lamar Jackson's had 1895 01:32:51,320 --> 01:32:53,280 Speaker 2: a big day seventeen to twenty three, two hundred and 1896 01:32:53,280 --> 01:32:56,280 Speaker 2: seventy nine yards of the year. I knew the Ravens 1897 01:32:56,360 --> 01:32:59,280 Speaker 2: were going to score, and the question was, you know, 1898 01:32:59,439 --> 01:33:02,280 Speaker 2: Jayden Dan, this is the biggest test that he has 1899 01:33:02,320 --> 01:33:04,959 Speaker 2: had yet, you know, on the road against the Ravens, 1900 01:33:05,680 --> 01:33:08,720 Speaker 2: and he hasn't been terrible. It's just that you know, 1901 01:33:09,080 --> 01:33:12,000 Speaker 2: his his team, the Commanders. I mean, when when this 1902 01:33:12,160 --> 01:33:14,760 Speaker 2: is all said and done, assuming that the Ravens can 1903 01:33:14,880 --> 01:33:18,000 Speaker 2: hang on here, when you look at the NFC East, 1904 01:33:18,040 --> 01:33:21,879 Speaker 2: obviously we'll have the Cowboys later on hosting the Detroit Lions, 1905 01:33:21,960 --> 01:33:25,400 Speaker 2: you have the Giants, and obviously we have the Eagles 1906 01:33:25,520 --> 01:33:29,240 Speaker 2: right now in this tie against the Browns. Where do 1907 01:33:29,280 --> 01:33:31,680 Speaker 2: you think the Commanders fit right now in terms of 1908 01:33:32,080 --> 01:33:34,439 Speaker 2: who could come out on top when it's all said 1909 01:33:34,520 --> 01:33:36,000 Speaker 2: and done in the NFC East. 1910 01:33:36,479 --> 01:33:39,200 Speaker 1: I think the Commanders could win the division. I really, 1911 01:33:39,280 --> 01:33:39,840 Speaker 1: honestly do. 1912 01:33:40,160 --> 01:33:43,200 Speaker 4: I think that what we've seen from Dallas has been 1913 01:33:43,920 --> 01:33:46,800 Speaker 4: a little inconsistent, and we'll see them against a very 1914 01:33:46,880 --> 01:33:50,759 Speaker 4: good NFC competitor tonight, very similar to the Commanders facing 1915 01:33:50,800 --> 01:33:54,479 Speaker 4: an AFC competitor tonight. You know, obviously, the class of 1916 01:33:54,560 --> 01:33:59,760 Speaker 4: the NFC from leftover from last year is the Detroit Lions. 1917 01:33:59,400 --> 01:34:02,400 Speaker 1: And I'm really curious to see what this game looks 1918 01:34:02,479 --> 01:34:03,559 Speaker 1: like tonight against Dallas. 1919 01:34:03,640 --> 01:34:06,519 Speaker 4: But Dallas really feels like the big Impass because the 1920 01:34:06,520 --> 01:34:11,840 Speaker 4: Philadelphia Eagles have plummeted after starting a double digit win 1921 01:34:12,040 --> 01:34:16,760 Speaker 4: season last year, losing six straight and then starting this 1922 01:34:16,880 --> 01:34:22,680 Speaker 4: season looking awfully off kilter. And so the Commanders, I mean, 1923 01:34:22,800 --> 01:34:26,240 Speaker 4: everything's in front of them. You have a talented rookie quarterback, 1924 01:34:26,360 --> 01:34:29,320 Speaker 4: you have weapons around him offensively, a strong running game, 1925 01:34:29,720 --> 01:34:34,800 Speaker 4: a defense against obviously against the Baltimore Ravens, they're getting 1926 01:34:34,840 --> 01:34:37,800 Speaker 4: their flaws exposed that can't stop the run, but they've 1927 01:34:37,840 --> 01:34:42,360 Speaker 4: been opportunistic in other games. I think it's possible, conceivable 1928 01:34:42,800 --> 01:34:44,679 Speaker 4: to see the Commanders win this division. 1929 01:34:44,880 --> 01:34:48,880 Speaker 2: By the way, it's early, very early right now. The 1930 01:34:49,000 --> 01:34:52,840 Speaker 2: rookie class of quarterbacks looking pretty good. Caleb Williams is 1931 01:34:53,200 --> 01:34:56,639 Speaker 2: certainly improving. We talked about Jaden Daniels Drake May's first 1932 01:34:56,720 --> 01:34:59,360 Speaker 2: game today. Even though they're trailing twenty seven to fourteen, 1933 01:35:00,040 --> 01:35:02,640 Speaker 2: Tina twenty two hundred and eighty two yards, two touchdowns 1934 01:35:02,680 --> 01:35:05,760 Speaker 2: and a pick. Those are good numbers. Bo Nicks, after 1935 01:35:05,840 --> 01:35:08,479 Speaker 2: a slow start, suddenly has the Broncos city in at 1936 01:35:08,520 --> 01:35:11,880 Speaker 2: three and two, and obviously we're still waiting on Michael 1937 01:35:11,880 --> 01:35:15,160 Speaker 2: Pennock and JJ McCarthy. So I mean this as bad 1938 01:35:15,200 --> 01:35:18,240 Speaker 2: as the class looks from twenty twenty one, and that's 1939 01:35:18,680 --> 01:35:22,080 Speaker 2: that just three years ago, and after Trevor Lawrence today, 1940 01:35:22,120 --> 01:35:24,320 Speaker 2: I mean wow, I mean that could go down as 1941 01:35:24,360 --> 01:35:26,479 Speaker 2: one of the worst quarterback classes of all time. And 1942 01:35:26,600 --> 01:35:29,320 Speaker 2: by the way, it's not a knock on their individual talents, 1943 01:35:29,360 --> 01:35:32,080 Speaker 2: because so much of being a successful quarterback in this 1944 01:35:32,240 --> 01:35:34,000 Speaker 2: league is to be on the right team at the 1945 01:35:34,080 --> 01:35:36,439 Speaker 2: right time, in the right system. So much of it is. 1946 01:35:37,200 --> 01:35:39,799 Speaker 2: It doesn't mean they don't have talent. Obviously they have talent, 1947 01:35:40,280 --> 01:35:43,640 Speaker 2: but is it the right system to fully amplify the 1948 01:35:43,720 --> 01:35:46,920 Speaker 2: talent that they have. But the early returns on this 1949 01:35:47,160 --> 01:35:49,679 Speaker 2: year's quarterback class looks promising. 1950 01:35:50,080 --> 01:35:51,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with that. 1951 01:35:51,479 --> 01:35:54,320 Speaker 4: And to your point about Drake May, I actually, at 1952 01:35:54,360 --> 01:35:57,439 Speaker 4: our show break broadcasting from home here went to see 1953 01:35:57,439 --> 01:36:00,519 Speaker 4: if I could find my notes from the ball in 1954 01:36:00,600 --> 01:36:05,320 Speaker 4: twenty twenty two when UNC was facing the Oregon Ducks 1955 01:36:05,720 --> 01:36:08,519 Speaker 4: at Peco Park, and I found my notes and one 1956 01:36:08,560 --> 01:36:10,880 Speaker 4: of the things I wrote down during the game about 1957 01:36:10,960 --> 01:36:13,639 Speaker 4: Drake May that I noticed because you can see things 1958 01:36:13,720 --> 01:36:16,519 Speaker 4: on film, but you know the film copy. You know, 1959 01:36:16,600 --> 01:36:19,839 Speaker 4: you're looking at plays, you're not looking at the whole environment. 1960 01:36:19,920 --> 01:36:22,800 Speaker 4: You're not seeing every moment on the field. And what 1961 01:36:22,920 --> 01:36:25,560 Speaker 4: I wrote down in game about Drake May is he 1962 01:36:25,640 --> 01:36:28,840 Speaker 4: plays football like he hates to lose. There are certain 1963 01:36:28,960 --> 01:36:33,439 Speaker 4: quarterbacks who go out there and you know that it's 1964 01:36:33,479 --> 01:36:37,000 Speaker 4: important to them, but they don't seem all that bothered 1965 01:36:37,680 --> 01:36:39,439 Speaker 4: when a play doesn't go their way. 1966 01:36:39,720 --> 01:36:43,200 Speaker 1: But Drake May, he was fired up and he was gutsy. 1967 01:36:43,400 --> 01:36:46,320 Speaker 4: He rushed the ball twelve times that day for something 1968 01:36:46,439 --> 01:36:49,040 Speaker 4: like forty yards, and he threw for over two hundred 1969 01:36:49,080 --> 01:36:52,160 Speaker 4: and three passing touchdowns. And it wasn't a perfect performance, 1970 01:36:52,160 --> 01:36:55,120 Speaker 4: there's no doubt about that. But what he did is 1971 01:36:55,200 --> 01:36:58,000 Speaker 4: he fought. He fought from whistle to whistle. And in 1972 01:36:58,240 --> 01:37:01,280 Speaker 4: a time period where there are certain starting quarterbacks you 1973 01:37:01,360 --> 01:37:04,519 Speaker 4: know who you know, may come up limping and not 1974 01:37:04,680 --> 01:37:07,080 Speaker 4: want to play in there, you know, and their their 1975 01:37:07,240 --> 01:37:09,560 Speaker 4: their bowl games. And he was younger then, so that 1976 01:37:09,680 --> 01:37:11,920 Speaker 4: really wasn't an option for him at the time. But 1977 01:37:12,439 --> 01:37:15,479 Speaker 4: it was one of the gutsier quarterback performances I remember 1978 01:37:15,560 --> 01:37:18,960 Speaker 4: seeing that year. And so Drake May what the Patriots 1979 01:37:19,040 --> 01:37:21,719 Speaker 4: got in third overall draft pick. Is a guy who's 1980 01:37:21,800 --> 01:37:24,519 Speaker 4: going to fiercely compete and he's going to try hard 1981 01:37:24,560 --> 01:37:25,679 Speaker 4: to get better at this level. 1982 01:37:25,680 --> 01:37:27,719 Speaker 2: All right, A couple of touchdowns just put on the board. 1983 01:37:27,840 --> 01:37:30,680 Speaker 2: The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have retaken the lead thirty one 1984 01:37:30,680 --> 01:37:33,519 Speaker 2: to twenty seven of the Saints. Second touchdown pass from 1985 01:37:33,600 --> 01:37:37,880 Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield to Chris Godwin. Mayfield three touchdowns, three interceptions 1986 01:37:38,280 --> 01:37:41,559 Speaker 2: on the day, and DeVante Smith. I guess the Browns 1987 01:37:41,600 --> 01:37:44,479 Speaker 2: decided that DeVante Smith should not be covered. He was 1988 01:37:44,920 --> 01:37:48,280 Speaker 2: wide open and walks into the end zone, giving the 1989 01:37:48,360 --> 01:37:51,600 Speaker 2: Eagles the lead in their game against the Browns. I 1990 01:37:51,840 --> 01:37:55,040 Speaker 2: was watching Bo who used to be an Eagles fan. 1991 01:37:55,120 --> 01:37:57,560 Speaker 2: He's so holding out hope. Maybe the Eagles will be 1992 01:37:57,640 --> 01:37:59,080 Speaker 2: worth rooting for down the road. 1993 01:37:59,400 --> 01:38:01,680 Speaker 6: The important on that drive was that aj Brown went 1994 01:38:01,800 --> 01:38:03,799 Speaker 6: over his seventy one and a half receiving yards. 1995 01:38:04,520 --> 01:38:08,240 Speaker 1: Wow. Wow, he has completely divorced himself from the Philadelphia 1996 01:38:08,479 --> 01:38:10,719 Speaker 1: Now I just need I need one catch from Calvin 1997 01:38:10,800 --> 01:38:14,040 Speaker 1: Ridley and we're sitting pretty today. So yeah, wow, wow, 1998 01:38:14,080 --> 01:38:14,479 Speaker 1: wow wow. 1999 01:38:14,600 --> 01:38:15,400 Speaker 6: Let's go Titans. 2000 01:38:15,640 --> 01:38:16,000 Speaker 1: All right. 2001 01:38:17,000 --> 01:38:22,559 Speaker 2: Meanwhile, it looks like the Commanders have scored. Did they 2002 01:38:22,600 --> 01:38:24,479 Speaker 2: get in the end zone. Looks like it is that 2003 01:38:24,560 --> 01:38:24,960 Speaker 2: a catch. 2004 01:38:25,640 --> 01:38:26,640 Speaker 6: Looks like a touchdown to me. 2005 01:38:27,040 --> 01:38:31,680 Speaker 2: He's holding on to the ball. They gave it to him. Touchdown. 2006 01:38:31,800 --> 01:38:35,320 Speaker 2: That's mclauren as second touchdown of the game on the 2007 01:38:35,400 --> 01:38:40,960 Speaker 2: receiving end there and the extra point for the Commanders 2008 01:38:41,479 --> 01:38:44,920 Speaker 2: is good. I believe I'm just going to call it 2009 01:38:44,960 --> 01:38:46,920 Speaker 2: ahead of time here. Every time I do the kiss 2010 01:38:46,960 --> 01:38:52,120 Speaker 2: of death. Oh barely made it. There was a knuckleball 2011 01:38:52,320 --> 01:38:53,960 Speaker 2: into the lower right corner. 2012 01:38:54,200 --> 01:38:54,840 Speaker 1: Suck in there. 2013 01:38:55,160 --> 01:38:57,680 Speaker 2: Unbelievable. All right, So let's give an update on the 2014 01:38:57,920 --> 01:39:01,799 Speaker 2: passing numbers in this game. We mentioned Lamar Jackson seventeen 2015 01:39:01,880 --> 01:39:04,280 Speaker 2: to twenty three two hundred seventy nine yards in a score. 2016 01:39:04,880 --> 01:39:08,240 Speaker 2: Jaydon Daniels twenty two of thirty three, two hundred and 2017 01:39:08,240 --> 01:39:13,479 Speaker 2: forty seven yards, two touchdowns and no picks. He right 2018 01:39:13,600 --> 01:39:16,599 Speaker 2: now is every bit as good from a passing stat 2019 01:39:16,680 --> 01:39:20,360 Speaker 2: standpoint as we saw last year from Strap. I mean, 2020 01:39:20,640 --> 01:39:22,640 Speaker 2: this is the kind of start we remember in his 2021 01:39:22,800 --> 01:39:26,080 Speaker 2: first four games, Jadan Daniels was completing eighty two percent 2022 01:39:26,120 --> 01:39:30,080 Speaker 2: of his passes. As insane as that seems, the insanity 2023 01:39:30,240 --> 01:39:33,360 Speaker 2: is no quarterback in the history of the NFL ever 2024 01:39:34,280 --> 01:39:36,519 Speaker 2: ever in over one hundred years had ever had a 2025 01:39:36,600 --> 01:39:40,480 Speaker 2: four game run of eighty two percent completions. No quarterback, 2026 01:39:41,040 --> 01:39:44,519 Speaker 2: much less a quarterback in his first four NFL games. 2027 01:39:45,080 --> 01:39:45,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that. 2028 01:39:46,200 --> 01:39:49,320 Speaker 2: That is such a mind boggling stature. Like, no quarterback 2029 01:39:49,360 --> 01:39:53,080 Speaker 2: over four gamespan ever completed eighty two percent. Never. Never 2030 01:39:53,640 --> 01:39:55,240 Speaker 2: this guy did in his first four games. 2031 01:39:55,520 --> 01:39:58,479 Speaker 4: I mean the throw, and I know it seems a 2032 01:39:58,560 --> 01:40:02,040 Speaker 4: little routine to Terry mcl lauren, but these are such 2033 01:40:02,240 --> 01:40:05,360 Speaker 4: tight windows in the NFL. In the low red zone, 2034 01:40:05,680 --> 01:40:10,080 Speaker 4: the Baltimore Ravens were showing a house blitz they bring 2035 01:40:10,400 --> 01:40:13,720 Speaker 4: I believe it was only four rushers in bailed and 2036 01:40:13,840 --> 01:40:16,760 Speaker 4: so it clouds up the picture. He knows exactly where 2037 01:40:16,800 --> 01:40:19,200 Speaker 4: to go with the football on the outbreaking route to 2038 01:40:19,280 --> 01:40:21,360 Speaker 4: the front corner of the end zone. He puts a 2039 01:40:21,439 --> 01:40:24,400 Speaker 4: perfect amount of touch. He threw that football before Terry 2040 01:40:24,439 --> 01:40:26,840 Speaker 4: even put his foot in the ground to make his 2041 01:40:26,960 --> 01:40:29,479 Speaker 4: break toward the sideline, and it was in the only 2042 01:40:29,640 --> 01:40:33,320 Speaker 4: spot where Terry McLaurin could catch it away from the defender. 2043 01:40:33,760 --> 01:40:36,280 Speaker 4: It's not just about picking the right guy to throw 2044 01:40:36,320 --> 01:40:40,479 Speaker 4: the football too. That's something that Tom Brady Drew brees 2045 01:40:40,560 --> 01:40:42,800 Speaker 4: Peyton Manning, all the greats will tell you. It's about 2046 01:40:42,840 --> 01:40:46,560 Speaker 4: putting on the correct shoulder, putting in the correct quadrant 2047 01:40:47,000 --> 01:40:49,560 Speaker 4: of the pass catcher to make sure you keep it 2048 01:40:49,600 --> 01:40:52,840 Speaker 4: away from the defender or keep the receiver safe from 2049 01:40:52,880 --> 01:40:53,439 Speaker 4: the defender. 2050 01:40:53,680 --> 01:40:56,160 Speaker 1: And Jaden Daniels is already doing that his rookie year. 2051 01:40:56,439 --> 01:40:58,519 Speaker 2: By the way, Jalen Hurts after that, oh for five 2052 01:40:58,600 --> 01:41:01,120 Speaker 2: start now fourteen to twenty two, two hundred fourteen yards, 2053 01:41:01,160 --> 01:41:04,640 Speaker 2: two touchdowns. After that forty five yards scoring pass to 2054 01:41:04,720 --> 01:41:08,200 Speaker 2: Devonte Smith, here's my amazing stats. So Jashaun Watson, same 2055 01:41:08,280 --> 01:41:11,280 Speaker 2: stats as usual, ten of sixteen, eighty eight yards, no touchdowns. 2056 01:41:12,120 --> 01:41:15,639 Speaker 2: But here's here's the consistency. It's been sacked five times. 2057 01:41:16,320 --> 01:41:18,800 Speaker 2: So he came into this game twenty six sacks. That's 2058 01:41:18,920 --> 01:41:21,679 Speaker 2: thirty one sacks, so right on pace of at least 2059 01:41:21,800 --> 01:41:26,760 Speaker 2: five sacks per game per game. Yeah, that's where it 2060 01:41:26,920 --> 01:41:29,479 Speaker 2: is right now with this Cleveland Browns team. All right, 2061 01:41:29,560 --> 01:41:34,320 Speaker 2: let's find out what is trending right now. And Montsi's 2062 01:41:34,360 --> 01:41:38,000 Speaker 2: been busy keeping track of her multitude of fantasy football teams, 2063 01:41:38,080 --> 01:41:39,559 Speaker 2: everything going on with the games. 2064 01:41:41,360 --> 01:41:45,759 Speaker 8: It's very annoying when you have multiple teams because for example, 2065 01:41:46,040 --> 01:41:49,439 Speaker 8: I have Baker Mayfield in a league, and then in 2066 01:41:49,560 --> 01:41:53,080 Speaker 8: another league here against Shay, he has Chris Godwin. 2067 01:41:53,360 --> 01:41:54,400 Speaker 7: So it's like, I'm happy that. 2068 01:41:54,439 --> 01:41:57,040 Speaker 8: He just threw that touchdown pass to Chris Godwin, but 2069 01:41:57,080 --> 01:41:58,840 Speaker 8: then I'm playing against him in a different league. 2070 01:41:59,040 --> 01:42:00,639 Speaker 7: So how am I so supposed to feel? 2071 01:42:00,800 --> 01:42:02,800 Speaker 2: Well, First of all, I wish they were the listen. 2072 01:42:02,880 --> 01:42:05,600 Speaker 2: Brian Know was all in on Mike Evans today. Of 2073 01:42:05,680 --> 01:42:08,200 Speaker 2: course I listened this morning and he was all in 2074 01:42:08,360 --> 01:42:11,439 Speaker 2: on Mike Evans, so you know, and all of a sudden, 2075 01:42:11,479 --> 01:42:12,479 Speaker 2: God wins got. 2076 01:42:12,400 --> 01:42:14,559 Speaker 8: Today, which you know yesterday when we talked about this game, 2077 01:42:14,600 --> 01:42:17,320 Speaker 8: I mentioned both of those weapons for Baker Mayfield being 2078 01:42:17,360 --> 01:42:19,280 Speaker 8: the reason why I would take the Buccaneers in the 2079 01:42:19,320 --> 01:42:22,680 Speaker 8: situation against a rookie quarterback Spencer Ratler, who you know 2080 01:42:22,920 --> 01:42:24,280 Speaker 8: got his first touchdown pass. 2081 01:42:24,439 --> 01:42:25,200 Speaker 7: But the Saints have. 2082 01:42:25,360 --> 01:42:28,519 Speaker 8: Yet to score since scoring twenty seven points in the 2083 01:42:28,640 --> 01:42:31,519 Speaker 8: second quarter. You know, there was a there was a 2084 01:42:31,560 --> 01:42:34,080 Speaker 8: scoop and score by Rashisha Heaton that, yes, but they 2085 01:42:34,120 --> 01:42:36,320 Speaker 8: haven't scored since thence so the Buccaneers are on top 2086 01:42:36,520 --> 01:42:39,479 Speaker 8: thirty one to twenty seven. Baker Mayfield with two different 2087 01:42:39,600 --> 01:42:42,160 Speaker 8: hat tricks three interceptions. 2088 01:42:41,479 --> 01:42:42,880 Speaker 7: And three touchdown passes. 2089 01:42:42,960 --> 01:42:43,280 Speaker 1: What is he? 2090 01:42:43,400 --> 01:42:45,960 Speaker 2: Jameis Winston accent faking up? 2091 01:42:46,680 --> 01:42:48,840 Speaker 8: Pre text me earlier because we both have her, both 2092 01:42:48,880 --> 01:42:50,760 Speaker 8: have Baker Mayfield in different leaks since she was like, 2093 01:42:51,000 --> 01:42:53,599 Speaker 8: Baker is not baking, but he's baking. 2094 01:42:53,680 --> 01:42:56,880 Speaker 7: He's also just not baking all great?

The Browns are losing to the 2112 01:43:38,320 --> 01:43:41,080 Speaker 7: Eagles twenty to thirteen halfway through the fourth.

Right now, the Liberty are up thirty 2129 01:44:22,360 --> 01:44:24,479 Speaker 8: three to twenty four with about eight minutes to go. 2130 01:44:24,840 --> 01:44:25,920 Speaker 7: In the first half. 2131 01:44:26,320 --> 01:44:28,559 Speaker 2: Fact, you guys all right, mont See, Thank you very much. 2132 01:44:28,640 --> 01:44:30,439 Speaker 2: We'll check in with you a little bit later on. 2133 01:44:30,560 --> 01:44:33,200 Speaker 2: Once again, this is Red Zone Radio Steve Hartman and 2134 01:44:33,479 --> 01:44:34,280 Speaker 2: Rich Ormberger. 2135 01:44:34,520 --> 01:44:36,000 Speaker 1: You know, I we just had this. 2136 01:44:36,080 --> 01:44:39,800 Speaker 2: Baseball season where Shohyotani fifty to fifty. Right, You're like, wow, 2137 01:44:39,880 --> 01:44:44,120 Speaker 2: that's that's unbelievable. But I will still say this, Jamis 2138 01:44:44,160 --> 01:44:47,160 Speaker 2: Winston in twenty nineteen had a thirty thirty thirty three 2139 01:44:47,280 --> 01:44:50,599 Speaker 2: touchdowns and thirty interceptions by the way through for five 2140 01:44:51,200 --> 01:44:53,640 Speaker 2: one hundred and nine yards. That year, he led the 2141 01:44:53,720 --> 01:44:56,800 Speaker 2: league in passing yards and in the five years since then, 2142 01:44:56,840 --> 01:44:59,840 Speaker 2: he's only started a total of ten games. But who 2143 01:45:00,160 --> 01:45:03,800 Speaker 2: what can you ever see a quarterback do thirty thirty again? 2144 01:45:04,080 --> 01:45:04,920 Speaker 1: No ever? 2145 01:45:05,200 --> 01:45:08,599 Speaker 2: I mean because normally if you throw thirty interceptions, you're 2146 01:45:08,640 --> 01:45:10,439 Speaker 2: not going to be in a position to throw thirty 2147 01:45:10,479 --> 01:45:14,120 Speaker 2: three touchdown passes. But he started all sixteen games that 2148 01:45:14,280 --> 01:45:16,880 Speaker 2: year and he pulled it off. So yeah, fifty to 2149 01:45:16,960 --> 01:45:20,840 Speaker 2: fifty is amazing. But I'd say that thirty thirty at 2150 01:45:20,920 --> 01:45:23,439 Speaker 2: Jamis Winston holds up over the test of time. 2151 01:45:23,600 --> 01:45:26,160 Speaker 1: I agree with you. I agree with you one hundred percent. 2152 01:45:26,280 --> 01:45:28,160 Speaker 1: There's no way that'll ever be beaten. 2153 01:45:28,280 --> 01:45:33,639 Speaker 4: So just like shohe Otani, yeah, a generational talent, earning 2154 01:45:33,720 --> 01:45:35,200 Speaker 4: some generational. 2155 01:45:34,680 --> 01:45:36,839 Speaker 1: Statistics years ago as a starter in Tempao. 2156 01:45:36,840 --> 01:45:39,200 Speaker 2: Oh by the way, he also had more pick sixes 2157 01:45:39,360 --> 01:45:41,600 Speaker 2: in that season than any quarterback in the history of 2158 01:45:41,600 --> 01:45:42,080 Speaker 2: the NFL. 2159 01:45:42,280 --> 01:45:45,479 Speaker 1: Well, listen, uh, he will find forever that was like 2160 01:45:45,560 --> 01:45:48,240 Speaker 1: the hat trick right here, you will forever being blazoned 2161 01:45:48,600 --> 01:45:51,720 Speaker 1: in the annals of NFL history. So there it is. 2162 01:45:51,960 --> 01:45:54,200 Speaker 2: Well, is he going to get another opportunity to start? 2163 01:45:54,240 --> 01:45:56,599 Speaker 2: As I mentioned in the last five years with the Saints. 2164 01:45:56,640 --> 01:45:59,760 Speaker 2: Now with the Browns, he's only started ten games in 2165 01:45:59,800 --> 01:46:03,000 Speaker 2: the last five years combined. Are the Browns ever going 2166 01:46:03,040 --> 01:46:05,360 Speaker 2: to turn the page on Deshaun Watson to give Winston 2167 01:46:05,400 --> 01:46:07,240 Speaker 2: an opportunity if they lose today? 2168 01:46:07,960 --> 01:46:11,679 Speaker 1: I can't imagine sticking with this same formula, right. 2169 01:46:11,680 --> 01:46:14,360 Speaker 4: I mean, you're about to face the teeth of your 2170 01:46:15,160 --> 01:46:18,160 Speaker 4: NFC North schedule with the Bengals. You get to host 2171 01:46:18,280 --> 01:46:20,880 Speaker 4: them and then going on the road to Baltimore both 2172 01:46:20,960 --> 01:46:26,160 Speaker 4: those games and consecutive weeks following this Eagles loss potentially. 2173 01:46:25,760 --> 01:46:27,599 Speaker 1: And you're gonna roll Deshaun Watson out there. 2174 01:46:28,240 --> 01:46:31,360 Speaker 4: I mean, like you said, Kevin Stefanski won Coach of 2175 01:46:31,400 --> 01:46:34,920 Speaker 4: the Year last year largely because in spite of all 2176 01:46:35,000 --> 01:46:38,559 Speaker 4: the changes at quarterback, he was still able to get 2177 01:46:38,600 --> 01:46:41,200 Speaker 4: the job done. So he may need to have a 2178 01:46:41,400 --> 01:46:44,600 Speaker 4: replay of last season, moving on from DeShawn if he 2179 01:46:44,680 --> 01:46:47,559 Speaker 4: could get ownership or the front office to agree it's 2180 01:46:47,640 --> 01:46:49,080 Speaker 4: what's best for the football team. 2181 01:46:49,479 --> 01:46:52,240 Speaker 1: And next in is Jamis. We'll see how that goes. 2182 01:46:52,320 --> 01:46:55,160 Speaker 4: You just mentioned his last year as a full time 2183 01:46:55,240 --> 01:46:58,599 Speaker 4: starting quarterback with it had its highs and its lows. 2184 01:46:58,760 --> 01:47:00,679 Speaker 4: So maybe if he can be a little more careful 2185 01:47:00,720 --> 01:47:03,439 Speaker 4: with the football it'll be better. But right now, if 2186 01:47:03,479 --> 01:47:07,080 Speaker 4: you're asking me, just based on the current quarterbacks they 2187 01:47:07,200 --> 01:47:10,400 Speaker 4: have to select from this season, who's the best option, 2188 01:47:10,600 --> 01:47:13,200 Speaker 4: I would say Jamis Winston because it is not working 2189 01:47:13,280 --> 01:47:14,120 Speaker 4: with DeShawn. 2190 01:47:13,920 --> 01:47:16,560 Speaker 2: Well, it's working on this drive right now though. So 2191 01:47:16,640 --> 01:47:19,760 Speaker 2: the Eagles after getting the touchdown from Jalen Hurst to 2192 01:47:19,800 --> 01:47:25,200 Speaker 2: Devonte Smith, defense, which really is hell completely in check. 2193 01:47:25,400 --> 01:47:27,800 Speaker 2: Cleveland's only score was on a block field goal run 2194 01:47:27,840 --> 01:47:31,759 Speaker 2: for a touchdown. Bo I'm watching this Eagles defense suddenly 2195 01:47:31,920 --> 01:47:35,559 Speaker 2: wilt under the pressure of the passing game led by 2196 01:47:35,680 --> 01:47:36,439 Speaker 2: Deshaun Watson. 2197 01:47:36,520 --> 01:47:37,680 Speaker 6: It was first in twenty five. 2198 01:47:37,960 --> 01:47:40,800 Speaker 2: Look at this second half. Deshaun Watson is ten for 2199 01:47:40,960 --> 01:47:43,720 Speaker 2: ten passing for one hundred and eighteen yards. This is 2200 01:47:43,880 --> 01:47:47,439 Speaker 2: reminiscent of his last half of last year where he 2201 01:47:47,520 --> 01:47:50,280 Speaker 2: had a perfect second half, let a Browns comeback, and 2202 01:47:50,320 --> 01:47:52,080 Speaker 2: then after a game that it was announced he was 2203 01:47:52,160 --> 01:47:56,040 Speaker 2: out for the season. So right now the Browns have 2204 01:47:56,120 --> 01:48:00,360 Speaker 2: a second and goal. So and I'm watching Stefanski working 2205 01:48:00,439 --> 01:48:03,280 Speaker 2: it on the sidelines right now. I mean, I like him. 2206 01:48:03,280 --> 01:48:05,639 Speaker 2: I think he's a hell of a coach. Like you said, 2207 01:48:05,760 --> 01:48:08,320 Speaker 2: rich was the big thing about last year. You have 2208 01:48:08,439 --> 01:48:11,719 Speaker 2: to hold that locker room together. Right your quarterback is down. 2209 01:48:12,200 --> 01:48:15,320 Speaker 2: You're bringing a guy literally off the couch and Joe Flacco, 2210 01:48:15,880 --> 01:48:18,840 Speaker 2: and yeah, Flacco performed well, but you can't lose the 2211 01:48:18,960 --> 01:48:22,240 Speaker 2: locker room, and he didn't and Cleveland was able to 2212 01:48:22,800 --> 01:48:25,600 Speaker 2: get it. Meanwhile, the Ravens right now leading the Commanders 2213 01:48:25,640 --> 01:48:29,799 Speaker 2: twenty seven to twenty. Justin Tucker, future Hall of Famer, 2214 01:48:29,960 --> 01:48:32,040 Speaker 2: is on the field right now to attempt a field 2215 01:48:32,080 --> 01:48:35,559 Speaker 2: goal to make this a two score game in favor 2216 01:48:35,680 --> 01:48:39,120 Speaker 2: of the Ravens. So again for the Eagles, the kick 2217 01:48:39,200 --> 01:48:42,800 Speaker 2: by Tucker, of course is good. Thirty to twenty. Right now, 2218 01:48:42,960 --> 01:48:46,040 Speaker 2: Ravens lead the Commanders six minutes to go. In the 2219 01:48:46,080 --> 01:48:48,559 Speaker 2: fourth courter in that game, by the way, Indianapolis has 2220 01:48:48,600 --> 01:48:52,400 Speaker 2: taken a twenty to seventeen lead. Rich On the road 2221 01:48:52,560 --> 01:48:56,120 Speaker 2: against the Tennessee Titans. We got seven minutes to go 2222 01:48:56,280 --> 01:48:59,479 Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter of that game. This has been 2223 01:48:59,520 --> 01:49:02,960 Speaker 2: a pretty you know, rough game. Joe Flacco has been 2224 01:49:03,960 --> 01:49:05,760 Speaker 2: good enough, you know, let's put it that way, twenty 2225 01:49:05,800 --> 01:49:08,400 Speaker 2: to thirty five, only one hundred and seventy two yards, 2226 01:49:08,439 --> 01:49:10,479 Speaker 2: but he does have a couple of touchdown passes in 2227 01:49:10,600 --> 01:49:14,920 Speaker 2: this game. And for the Colts, again, what we talked 2228 01:49:14,960 --> 01:49:18,640 Speaker 2: about earlier, just trying to stay in the playoff Conversationshaun 2229 01:49:18,720 --> 01:49:21,360 Speaker 2: Watson on a keeper is going to come up short 2230 01:49:21,400 --> 01:49:24,840 Speaker 2: of the goal. There's only four minutes remaining, So this 2231 01:49:25,080 --> 01:49:27,320 Speaker 2: is not a place where the Browns are going to 2232 01:49:27,360 --> 01:49:29,920 Speaker 2: settle for a field goal. No, this is four down 2233 01:49:30,080 --> 01:49:32,160 Speaker 2: territory for the Cleveland Browns here. 2234 01:49:32,240 --> 01:49:33,200 Speaker 1: Absolutely. Yeah. 2235 01:49:33,280 --> 01:49:35,519 Speaker 4: Look, you know one thing that you have to remark 2236 01:49:35,600 --> 01:49:39,080 Speaker 4: on going back to the Colts Tennessee Titans game is 2237 01:49:39,120 --> 01:49:42,280 Speaker 4: the Colts defense has stepped up. I mean against a 2238 01:49:42,400 --> 01:49:46,200 Speaker 4: much weaker offense than they've faced recently, but they've been 2239 01:49:46,280 --> 01:49:49,479 Speaker 4: a lot better in this game, limiting the damage, the yardage, 2240 01:49:49,600 --> 01:49:50,800 Speaker 4: the points and. 2241 01:49:50,880 --> 01:49:54,519 Speaker 1: Also Joe Flacco. You know, this offense has been really 2242 01:49:54,680 --> 01:50:00,160 Speaker 1: really consistently converting third downs. Another good performance on that 2243 01:50:00,680 --> 01:50:05,559 Speaker 1: very important down of football. Seven of twelve so far 2244 01:50:05,680 --> 01:50:09,679 Speaker 1: today for the Colts against the Tennessee Titans three of nine, 2245 01:50:09,840 --> 01:50:14,040 Speaker 1: so Will levis not getting it done in that statistical category. Overall, 2246 01:50:14,080 --> 01:50:17,720 Speaker 1: pretty even day though from the lookout. 2247 01:50:17,520 --> 01:50:21,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, some of the better days today. Certainly Jordan Love 2248 01:50:21,680 --> 01:50:24,200 Speaker 2: has had a day twenty one of thirty two hundred 2249 01:50:24,200 --> 01:50:28,760 Speaker 2: and forty eight yards, four touchdown passes. Wow, as the 2250 01:50:29,040 --> 01:50:32,360 Speaker 2: Packers fully in command against the Cardinals by a score 2251 01:50:32,439 --> 01:50:35,439 Speaker 2: of thirty one to thirteen. So it only made sense 2252 01:50:35,520 --> 01:50:39,080 Speaker 2: that Jordan Love looked a little rusty coming back, but 2253 01:50:39,200 --> 01:50:41,800 Speaker 2: all of a sudden he's now reverting to form that 2254 01:50:41,880 --> 01:50:44,960 Speaker 2: we saw when he was literally the hottest quarterback in 2255 01:50:45,000 --> 01:50:47,439 Speaker 2: the NFL in the second half of last season. 2256 01:50:47,640 --> 01:50:50,920 Speaker 4: Well, and also when Arizona is just giving you gifts 2257 01:50:51,000 --> 01:50:53,200 Speaker 4: throughout the course of the game. I mean, don't get 2258 01:50:53,240 --> 01:50:57,120 Speaker 4: me wrong, Jordan Love threw that interception earlier in the game. 2259 01:50:57,240 --> 01:51:00,200 Speaker 4: But the Falcon or excuse me, the Falcons. The Cards 2260 01:51:00,240 --> 01:51:04,320 Speaker 4: have fumbled twice this half, which is given green Bay opportunities. 2261 01:51:04,680 --> 01:51:07,519 Speaker 4: The first one they try the field goal and missed it, 2262 01:51:08,000 --> 01:51:11,160 Speaker 4: and then obviously this current drive going on, green Bay 2263 01:51:11,240 --> 01:51:15,280 Speaker 4: has the ball. Uh, and they've already driven about fifty yards. 2264 01:51:16,720 --> 01:51:21,679 Speaker 2: So right now I am looking at this Ravens Commander's game. Okay, 2265 01:51:21,880 --> 01:51:26,880 Speaker 2: So the Eagles have stopped the Browns on third down, 2266 01:51:27,720 --> 01:51:29,640 Speaker 2: so we're now looking at fourth and goal. Bow, is 2267 01:51:29,680 --> 01:51:31,240 Speaker 2: that where we are right now? Fourth and goal for 2268 01:51:31,280 --> 01:51:34,599 Speaker 2: the Browns down by seven? All right, So that's where 2269 01:51:34,640 --> 01:51:36,600 Speaker 2: we are right now. We're looking at a fourth and 2270 01:51:36,720 --> 01:51:40,080 Speaker 2: goal for the Cleveland Browns and they are at the 2271 01:51:40,320 --> 01:51:43,880 Speaker 2: eight yard line of the Eagles. And as I said, 2272 01:51:44,000 --> 01:51:47,200 Speaker 2: four minutes to go. So on this Commander's Ravens game, 2273 01:51:47,360 --> 01:51:51,040 Speaker 2: I took the under rich. I'm still winning barely fifty 2274 01:51:51,080 --> 01:51:53,559 Speaker 2: one and a half was the overrunner right now. I'm 2275 01:51:53,600 --> 01:51:55,680 Speaker 2: hanging on by a thread right now. All right, here 2276 01:51:55,720 --> 01:51:58,160 Speaker 2: we go, and this's an illegal procedure call. Can you 2277 01:51:58,240 --> 01:52:04,240 Speaker 2: believe it? The un tackle? Okay Will's junior there on 2278 01:52:04,439 --> 01:52:07,280 Speaker 2: a false start fall start on fourth down at the 2279 01:52:07,320 --> 01:52:11,080 Speaker 2: eight yard line. Wow, okay, and he jumped up like 2280 01:52:11,960 --> 01:52:12,479 Speaker 2: real quick. 2281 01:52:13,080 --> 01:52:15,880 Speaker 4: So here's the problem. You know, they they got down 2282 01:52:15,920 --> 01:52:18,519 Speaker 4: to the goal line and kind of abandon what now. 2283 01:52:18,400 --> 01:52:19,720 Speaker 2: They're going to go for a field goal? 2284 01:52:20,080 --> 01:52:20,799 Speaker 1: Oh jeez? 2285 01:52:20,960 --> 01:52:24,360 Speaker 2: All right, three point fifty seven to go, they're not 2286 01:52:24,439 --> 01:52:26,719 Speaker 2: going to get the ball back. Well wait a second, 2287 01:52:26,760 --> 01:52:28,320 Speaker 2: and now, first of all, the Browns do have all 2288 01:52:28,320 --> 01:52:30,360 Speaker 2: three of their timeouts plus the two men in a warning. 2289 01:52:30,840 --> 01:52:34,120 Speaker 9: Also, I hate to do the math part on this, 2290 01:52:34,280 --> 01:52:36,880 Speaker 9: but like a field goal doesn't change, you still need 2291 01:52:36,960 --> 01:52:37,479 Speaker 9: a touchdown. 2292 01:52:37,600 --> 01:52:40,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, correct, this is if they go for a field goal. 2293 01:52:40,320 --> 01:52:43,759 Speaker 2: It will be they're going for a field goal unless 2294 01:52:43,800 --> 01:52:44,360 Speaker 2: it's a fake. 2295 01:52:45,920 --> 01:52:47,800 Speaker 6: We're taking aways the Fancies Coach of the Year award. 2296 01:52:47,920 --> 01:52:51,880 Speaker 2: All right, seriously, so it's twenty to sixteen. I guess 2297 01:52:51,920 --> 01:52:54,920 Speaker 2: the only difference is is that a touchdown wins the 2298 01:52:55,000 --> 01:52:56,360 Speaker 2: game and doesn't tie the game. 2299 01:52:56,520 --> 01:52:59,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's again, a two point conversion wins the game. 2300 01:52:59,479 --> 01:53:00,320 Speaker 1: You could win the game. 2301 01:53:00,439 --> 01:53:02,880 Speaker 2: I mean, I understand what you're saying, but I mean 2302 01:53:02,960 --> 01:53:05,080 Speaker 2: the way at the thirteen yard line. Do you think 2303 01:53:05,120 --> 01:53:07,000 Speaker 2: they have a play in their arsenal to score from 2304 01:53:07,040 --> 01:53:09,360 Speaker 2: the thirteen yard line. He obviously doesn't think they did. 2305 01:53:09,479 --> 01:53:11,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, but you can back the Eagles up to their 2306 01:53:11,080 --> 01:53:13,559 Speaker 6: goal line and ask Jalen Hurts to drive ninety nine years. 2307 01:53:13,600 --> 01:53:15,439 Speaker 2: Well again, so the Eagles will get the ball back. 2308 01:53:15,520 --> 01:53:17,800 Speaker 2: Brounds to have all three of their timeouts and the 2309 01:53:17,840 --> 01:53:20,759 Speaker 2: two minute warning. They need to stone the Eagles offense 2310 01:53:20,840 --> 01:53:22,519 Speaker 2: and hold them without a first down. All right, we 2311 01:53:22,680 --> 01:53:26,880 Speaker 2: roll on to the exciting finishes around the National Football League. 2312 01:53:26,960 --> 01:53:29,760 Speaker 2: This is Red Zone Radio fourt and goal for the 2313 01:53:29,920 --> 01:53:33,800 Speaker 2: sixth stat the Jadon Ravens brick five pumps throw toward 2314 01:53:33,840 --> 01:53:36,519 Speaker 2: the second McLaurin touch down. 2315 01:53:37,240 --> 01:53:38,439 Speaker 1: Touchdown. Wach again. 2316 01:53:38,960 --> 01:53:43,880 Speaker 2: Daniels comes through again. Shuck, great baby, I guess Cliff Crais, 2317 01:53:44,280 --> 01:53:45,400 Speaker 2: how better up chet, did you? 2318 01:53:47,320 --> 01:53:47,479 Speaker 1: Yeah? 2319 01:53:47,560 --> 01:53:51,280 Speaker 2: That's big one hundred Commanders Radio Network Commanders. Still trailing 2320 01:53:51,360 --> 01:53:54,679 Speaker 2: the Ravens thirty to twenty. However, they have a four 2321 01:53:54,800 --> 01:53:58,320 Speaker 2: down right now and attempting a forty nine yard field 2322 01:53:58,360 --> 01:54:00,599 Speaker 2: goal to make the game an over. And it's right 2323 01:54:00,680 --> 01:54:05,560 Speaker 2: down the middle, and there goes my inner like that, 2324 01:54:05,800 --> 01:54:08,599 Speaker 2: as simple as just like that, right down the middle, 2325 01:54:08,720 --> 01:54:13,160 Speaker 2: No breath right there. Marcy's happy because I smoked her 2326 01:54:13,320 --> 01:54:16,880 Speaker 2: last week and now I'm getting it in reversed this week. Yeah, 2327 01:54:17,200 --> 01:54:18,519 Speaker 2: it's going the other week, that's right. 2328 01:54:18,680 --> 01:54:18,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. 2329 01:54:19,000 --> 01:54:22,920 Speaker 2: So I had one one week out of the year 2330 01:54:23,000 --> 01:54:26,640 Speaker 2: where everything went my way, and as this is going on, 2331 01:54:26,800 --> 01:54:30,080 Speaker 2: I picked the Saints upset today against the Buccaneers. That's 2332 01:54:30,160 --> 01:54:32,560 Speaker 2: not looking so good as the Buccaneers have the lead 2333 01:54:32,640 --> 01:54:34,520 Speaker 2: thirty one to twenty seven, have a second in goal 2334 01:54:34,600 --> 01:54:37,040 Speaker 2: right now at the thirteen yard line. By the way, 2335 01:54:37,120 --> 01:54:40,040 Speaker 2: this is Red Zone Radio Steve Hartman and Rich Orenberger 2336 01:54:40,400 --> 01:54:45,200 Speaker 2: and we are live from the tire rack dot Com studios. Meanwhile, 2337 01:54:45,280 --> 01:54:49,360 Speaker 2: the gamble of the Browns doesn't look good, so they 2338 01:54:49,480 --> 01:54:53,400 Speaker 2: decided to go for the field goal with three timeouts 2339 01:54:53,800 --> 01:54:57,280 Speaker 2: and the two minute warning, and the Eagles right now 2340 01:54:57,840 --> 01:55:00,920 Speaker 2: have a first down. Actually it's a second eleven right now, 2341 01:55:00,960 --> 01:55:03,920 Speaker 2: they're near midfield, and at this point the Browns only 2342 01:55:03,960 --> 01:55:05,840 Speaker 2: have one time out left and there goes the two 2343 01:55:05,880 --> 01:55:10,320 Speaker 2: minute warning. So the Eagles are getting close to closing 2344 01:55:10,400 --> 01:55:12,960 Speaker 2: out the Browns, leading this game by a score of 2345 01:55:13,240 --> 01:55:15,040 Speaker 2: twenty to sixteen. 2346 01:55:15,920 --> 01:55:20,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, Look, the Browns, if they win this game, 2347 01:55:21,400 --> 01:55:26,040 Speaker 4: it may save Deshaun Watson's shot because if they see 2348 01:55:26,120 --> 01:55:30,120 Speaker 4: an efficiency that they haven't seen with Deshaun Watson over 2349 01:55:30,240 --> 01:55:33,480 Speaker 4: the course of this second half against the Eagles on 2350 01:55:33,600 --> 01:55:36,200 Speaker 4: the road, they give them a shot against the Bengals 2351 01:55:36,280 --> 01:55:38,520 Speaker 4: next week, hosting the Bengals before they go on the 2352 01:55:38,600 --> 01:55:39,880 Speaker 4: road to the Baltimore Ravens. 2353 01:55:39,960 --> 01:55:42,839 Speaker 1: Like we discussed, if you lose to the Eagles. 2354 01:55:43,000 --> 01:55:45,240 Speaker 4: It gives you an opportunity to sort of circle the 2355 01:55:45,280 --> 01:55:47,720 Speaker 4: wagons and say to yourself, all right, we're about to 2356 01:55:47,880 --> 01:55:52,840 Speaker 4: face a couple of NFC or AFC North opponents here 2357 01:55:53,440 --> 01:55:54,920 Speaker 4: right in a road consecutively. 2358 01:55:55,240 --> 01:55:57,040 Speaker 1: Do we really want to do that with the shot? 2359 01:55:57,600 --> 01:55:59,960 Speaker 1: And if the answer is no, well then you can 2360 01:56:00,120 --> 01:56:01,800 Speaker 1: kind of have all the excuses. 2361 01:56:01,400 --> 01:56:03,720 Speaker 4: In the world to pull the plug right now and 2362 01:56:03,880 --> 01:56:06,640 Speaker 4: to tear the band aid off and to give Jameis 2363 01:56:06,680 --> 01:56:08,680 Speaker 4: Winston a shot. And if you need to go back 2364 01:56:08,720 --> 01:56:10,720 Speaker 4: to Deshaun at some point in the season, I guess 2365 01:56:10,760 --> 01:56:14,680 Speaker 4: you could. But right now, the way he's playing, he 2366 01:56:14,840 --> 01:56:17,560 Speaker 4: may be saving his job or saving at very least 2367 01:56:17,600 --> 01:56:20,480 Speaker 4: his starting role on this offense, with the way he's 2368 01:56:20,560 --> 01:56:22,720 Speaker 4: putting together a second half against the Eagles. 2369 01:56:22,920 --> 01:56:26,320 Speaker 2: All right, we have just seen Baker may mayfield through 2370 01:56:26,360 --> 01:56:30,160 Speaker 2: its fourth touchdown pass of the game, extending the Buccaneers 2371 01:56:30,320 --> 01:56:34,960 Speaker 2: lead kito and right there with the reception there and 2372 01:56:35,200 --> 01:56:37,600 Speaker 2: so the Buccaneers, waiting on the extra point, have a 2373 01:56:37,800 --> 01:56:40,960 Speaker 2: thirty seven to twenty seven lead on the road against 2374 01:56:40,960 --> 01:56:45,720 Speaker 2: the Saints. Strange game where the Saints scored all twenty 2375 01:56:45,920 --> 01:56:49,480 Speaker 2: seven of their points in the second quarter. I have 2376 01:56:49,600 --> 01:56:52,840 Speaker 2: you ever seen this is their scoring so far? Zero 2377 01:56:53,160 --> 01:56:56,880 Speaker 2: twenty seven zero zero. Yeah, that is the line on 2378 01:56:57,000 --> 01:56:58,280 Speaker 2: the Saints scoring. 2379 01:56:58,600 --> 01:56:59,200 Speaker 1: In this game. 2380 01:56:59,280 --> 01:57:00,880 Speaker 2: I don't know if that's ever happened before. 2381 01:57:00,960 --> 01:57:02,320 Speaker 6: I have a question for you guys, and maybe you 2382 01:57:02,360 --> 01:57:04,760 Speaker 6: can help me. Is there any way possible that we 2383 01:57:04,800 --> 01:57:07,280 Speaker 6: can take one of the one hundred plus yards that 2384 01:57:07,320 --> 01:57:09,560 Speaker 6: Aj Brown has and just give it to Calvin Ridley? 2385 01:57:11,320 --> 01:57:12,280 Speaker 2: How much do you need that? 2386 01:57:12,440 --> 01:57:12,840 Speaker 1: Right? Yeah? 2387 01:57:13,080 --> 01:57:16,760 Speaker 6: Extremely, extremely badly. I just need I literally just need 2388 01:57:16,840 --> 01:57:18,720 Speaker 6: one yard from Calvin Ridley's. 2389 01:57:19,000 --> 01:57:21,240 Speaker 9: Speaking of AJ Brown, I believe the Eagles have just. 2390 01:57:21,280 --> 01:57:21,840 Speaker 2: Put this game. 2391 01:57:21,920 --> 01:57:22,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. 2392 01:57:22,680 --> 01:57:25,480 Speaker 6: AJ Brown just caught an absolute bomb from the jail Leaveland. 2393 01:57:25,640 --> 01:57:29,640 Speaker 2: No more timeouts to go. Yeah, well that's happening. The 2394 01:57:29,760 --> 01:57:32,560 Speaker 2: Ravens with that one score lead, just had a huge 2395 01:57:32,800 --> 01:57:36,200 Speaker 2: run as they are now in a position to put 2396 01:57:36,240 --> 01:57:39,400 Speaker 2: it away. Good news bad news for the Patriots today. 2397 01:57:39,520 --> 01:57:42,760 Speaker 2: Drake May three touchdown passes in his first start. The 2398 01:57:42,840 --> 01:57:47,280 Speaker 2: bad news is the New England defense got completely run 2399 01:57:47,360 --> 01:57:50,440 Speaker 2: over today by the Texans. The Texans with a one 2400 01:57:50,520 --> 01:57:54,480 Speaker 2: hundred and ninety three yards rushing in this game, Joe 2401 01:57:54,560 --> 01:57:57,520 Speaker 2: Mixon one hundred and two yards and a score, Damian 2402 01:57:57,560 --> 01:58:00,760 Speaker 2: Pierce had seventy six yards in a score. They average 2403 01:58:00,760 --> 01:58:03,080 Speaker 2: a mere seven and a half yards and carry. So 2404 01:58:03,360 --> 01:58:07,720 Speaker 2: the Patriots defense woeful today as they're getting blown out 2405 01:58:07,880 --> 01:58:12,040 Speaker 2: forty one to twenty one by the Texans, who with 2406 01:58:12,200 --> 01:58:14,760 Speaker 2: a win today, get to five and one. Rich And 2407 01:58:15,240 --> 01:58:18,440 Speaker 2: you know, I've been asking our dear friend Adam Kaplan 2408 01:58:18,560 --> 01:58:20,200 Speaker 2: each week because you know, he's all hyped up on 2409 01:58:20,280 --> 01:58:23,120 Speaker 2: the Jets. By the way, he's still not willing to 2410 01:58:23,200 --> 01:58:26,120 Speaker 2: give up on the Jets like you, but he maintained 2411 01:58:26,120 --> 01:58:28,080 Speaker 2: that they were the number two seed in the AFC. 2412 01:58:28,960 --> 01:58:32,280 Speaker 2: The Chiefs haven't been great this year, but they're undefeated. Yeah. Like, now, 2413 01:58:32,400 --> 01:58:34,600 Speaker 2: who do you believe is the second best team in 2414 01:58:34,680 --> 01:58:38,480 Speaker 2: the AFC in the moment right now, in the moment, 2415 01:58:38,600 --> 01:58:41,120 Speaker 2: right now, Yeah, who's the second best team in the AFC? 2416 01:58:41,320 --> 01:58:43,839 Speaker 1: I guess I would have to say the Baltimore Ravens. 2417 01:58:44,600 --> 01:58:46,640 Speaker 1: I guess I would have to say the Baltimore Ravens. 2418 01:58:46,720 --> 01:58:47,480 Speaker 2: That's hard to argue with. 2419 01:58:47,640 --> 01:58:50,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it's just look, I guess when you 2420 01:58:50,800 --> 01:58:53,120 Speaker 4: look at a team and you say, okay, how are 2421 01:58:53,160 --> 01:58:56,919 Speaker 4: they built and where are their flaws? The Baltimore Ravens 2422 01:58:57,040 --> 01:59:00,560 Speaker 4: are built like a team that can withstand colder other months, 2423 01:59:00,600 --> 01:59:03,320 Speaker 4: which they're going to need to, especially in the AFC North. 2424 01:59:03,840 --> 01:59:05,880 Speaker 4: But this is a team that's also built the right 2425 01:59:05,920 --> 01:59:09,080 Speaker 4: way in terms of surviving some of the bad weather games. 2426 01:59:09,360 --> 01:59:11,880 Speaker 4: They love to run the football, they love to play 2427 01:59:11,960 --> 01:59:14,840 Speaker 4: great defense, and their special teams are good and that 2428 01:59:14,960 --> 01:59:18,640 Speaker 4: gives you extra opportunities. So right now, in fact, the 2429 01:59:18,760 --> 01:59:22,000 Speaker 4: truth is record wise, the Chiefs are the best team 2430 01:59:22,080 --> 01:59:26,000 Speaker 4: in the AFC, but the Baltimore Ravens have looked better than. 2431 01:59:25,920 --> 01:59:28,440 Speaker 1: The Chiefs over the course of the season in my eyes, 2432 01:59:28,520 --> 01:59:29,200 Speaker 1: in my view. 2433 01:59:29,280 --> 01:59:32,120 Speaker 2: Right and a member again, Texans win today, which they will, 2434 01:59:33,040 --> 01:59:35,440 Speaker 2: they will have the second best record in the AFC. 2435 01:59:35,760 --> 01:59:38,440 Speaker 2: So that Larch more coming up as we'll have some 2436 01:59:38,560 --> 01:59:41,440 Speaker 2: games getting started, will we get an exciting finish? 2437 01:59:41,600 --> 01:59:42,000 Speaker 1: Find out? 2438 01:59:42,120 --> 01:59:43,600 Speaker 2: This is red Zone radio. 2439 01:59:44,040 --> 01:59:47,720 Speaker 11: Kerks takes the d and hands the football to the 2440 01:59:47,840 --> 01:59:53,040 Speaker 11: official and the rest as academic. As the seconds run 2441 01:59:53,160 --> 01:59:57,440 Speaker 11: off the clock, Any rebroadcast of this game is expressly 2442 01:59:57,560 --> 02:00:00,560 Speaker 11: prohibited without the offense for the professional the NFL. 2443 02:00:03,600 --> 02:00:07,200 Speaker 2: That is a perfect final call there as the Eagles 2444 02:00:07,600 --> 02:00:14,280 Speaker 2: hang on to beat the Brows by his car. Not 2445 02:00:14,760 --> 02:00:17,560 Speaker 2: a lot to brag about and that Eagles win. Apparently 2446 02:00:18,320 --> 02:00:22,320 Speaker 2: what's we are broadcasting live from the tire rag dot 2447 02:00:22,360 --> 02:00:24,920 Speaker 2: com studios ti rag dot com. We're gonna help get 2448 02:00:24,960 --> 02:00:30,560 Speaker 2: you there and I'm mad selection pass reshipping pups over 2449 02:00:30,720 --> 02:00:33,800 Speaker 2: ten thousand recommended dollars tyrag dot com The way tirebide 2450 02:00:33,800 --> 02:00:36,760 Speaker 2: should be. By the way, it is unlikely that anyone's 2451 02:00:36,800 --> 02:00:39,760 Speaker 2: gonna air a repeat of that broadcast of that game, 2452 02:00:39,920 --> 02:00:42,480 Speaker 2: so I know you have to sort of read the disclaimer, 2453 02:00:42,640 --> 02:00:44,720 Speaker 2: but in that case, I really didn't think it was 2454 02:00:44,880 --> 02:00:49,280 Speaker 2: necessary to read that twenty sixteen was the final. There 2455 02:00:50,480 --> 02:00:53,240 Speaker 2: By the way, final stats are the quarterbacks in that game, 2456 02:00:53,320 --> 02:00:55,920 Speaker 2: Jalen Hurt sixteen to twenty five two hundred and sixty 2457 02:00:55,960 --> 02:00:58,880 Speaker 2: four yards, two touchdowns, no picks. That's a that's a 2458 02:00:58,960 --> 02:01:01,880 Speaker 2: pretty healthy one twin six passer rating up bad after 2459 02:01:01,920 --> 02:01:03,920 Speaker 2: a zero for five start. He also had thirty three 2460 02:01:03,960 --> 02:01:07,520 Speaker 2: yards on the ground. Deshaun Watson's numbers not as bad 2461 02:01:08,000 --> 02:01:10,240 Speaker 2: as they have been. He was sixteen or twenty three 2462 02:01:10,360 --> 02:01:13,480 Speaker 2: hundred and sixty eight yards, no touchdowns, no picks. Remember, 2463 02:01:13,480 --> 02:01:15,760 Speaker 2: in the second half he did get hot. He actually 2464 02:01:15,840 --> 02:01:20,480 Speaker 2: got to a ninety passer rating in this game. But again, 2465 02:01:20,520 --> 02:01:22,800 Speaker 2: the Browns only touchdown of this game was on a 2466 02:01:23,240 --> 02:01:26,080 Speaker 2: blocked field goal attempt run back for a touchdown. So 2467 02:01:26,200 --> 02:01:30,000 Speaker 2: the Browns fall to one and five, and you almost 2468 02:01:30,040 --> 02:01:33,520 Speaker 2: have to remind yourself Rich this was a playoff team 2469 02:01:33,640 --> 02:01:38,000 Speaker 2: last year. The Browns were a playoff team last year, 2470 02:01:38,480 --> 02:01:40,840 Speaker 2: and they are off to a one in five start. 2471 02:01:41,040 --> 02:01:44,320 Speaker 2: So you know, even though the final numbers weren't horrific 2472 02:01:44,520 --> 02:01:48,720 Speaker 2: for Deshaun Watson, they did not get an offensive touchdown 2473 02:01:48,760 --> 02:01:50,640 Speaker 2: in this game. So it's going to be interesting as 2474 02:01:50,680 --> 02:01:55,280 Speaker 2: they move forward here with this season unraveling quickly in Cleveland, 2475 02:01:56,480 --> 02:01:58,000 Speaker 2: if they're going to make some kind of move at 2476 02:01:58,040 --> 02:01:59,320 Speaker 2: the quarterback position. 2477 02:01:59,280 --> 02:02:03,440 Speaker 4: Just under discipline and bad situational football. So when you 2478 02:02:03,800 --> 02:02:06,880 Speaker 4: look at the sum total of the game, like you said, 2479 02:02:07,480 --> 02:02:10,960 Speaker 4: you know, there aren't statistics that are glaring in opposition 2480 02:02:11,120 --> 02:02:15,560 Speaker 4: to having Deshaun Watson start next week. However, with him 2481 02:02:15,640 --> 02:02:18,200 Speaker 4: at the helm, this offense looked. 2482 02:02:19,600 --> 02:02:20,000 Speaker 1: Inept. 2483 02:02:20,120 --> 02:02:24,240 Speaker 4: On third down, they converted at a twenty five percent rate. 2484 02:02:24,320 --> 02:02:27,520 Speaker 4: They had twelve opportunities and they only made three of those. 2485 02:02:27,880 --> 02:02:30,400 Speaker 4: And part of the reason for that is because when 2486 02:02:30,440 --> 02:02:34,280 Speaker 4: he gets into those, you know, harder situations to convert 2487 02:02:34,400 --> 02:02:37,200 Speaker 4: either they had been walked back due to penalties, and 2488 02:02:37,320 --> 02:02:41,160 Speaker 4: that's somewhat outside of his control, although his cadence is 2489 02:02:41,240 --> 02:02:42,320 Speaker 4: what starts every play. 2490 02:02:42,360 --> 02:02:45,200 Speaker 1: And then the other side of it is he wasn't 2491 02:02:45,320 --> 02:02:47,080 Speaker 1: able to get those conversions. 2492 02:02:47,200 --> 02:02:50,280 Speaker 4: And again, it's a it's ten other guys on the 2493 02:02:50,320 --> 02:02:53,400 Speaker 4: football field, it's an offensive coordinator in your ear, it's 2494 02:02:53,440 --> 02:02:55,600 Speaker 4: a head coach on the sideline, you know, from a 2495 02:02:55,640 --> 02:02:59,720 Speaker 4: situational standpoint overruling certain play calls and things of that nature. 2496 02:03:00,000 --> 02:03:01,840 Speaker 4: There's a lot of chefs in the kitchen when it 2497 02:03:01,920 --> 02:03:06,360 Speaker 4: comes to making the offense, but one common denominator when 2498 02:03:06,440 --> 02:03:11,600 Speaker 4: Deshaun Watson is in the game is Deshaun Watson's failure 2499 02:03:11,720 --> 02:03:14,520 Speaker 4: to get this offense going. We've seen it work. It 2500 02:03:14,680 --> 02:03:17,760 Speaker 4: worked great last year with Flacco, it worked great last 2501 02:03:17,840 --> 02:03:21,360 Speaker 4: year with other quarterbacks not named Watson. So it sort 2502 02:03:21,400 --> 02:03:23,920 Speaker 4: of feels like we're just waiting for the shoe to. 2503 02:03:24,000 --> 02:03:27,520 Speaker 2: Drop here, all right. The Ravens have defeated the Commanders 2504 02:03:27,720 --> 02:03:31,440 Speaker 2: thirty to twenty three. Some individuals have big games for 2505 02:03:31,520 --> 02:03:34,640 Speaker 2: the Ravens. Lamar Jackson twenty to twenty six, three hundred 2506 02:03:34,680 --> 02:03:37,360 Speaker 2: and twenty three yards a touchdown, and a pick. He 2507 02:03:37,400 --> 02:03:40,839 Speaker 2: also ran for forty yards. Dereck Henry twenty four carries, 2508 02:03:41,160 --> 02:03:43,720 Speaker 2: one hundred and thirty two yards and two scores, and 2509 02:03:43,880 --> 02:03:46,960 Speaker 2: Zay Flowers today nine catches for one hundred and thirty 2510 02:03:47,000 --> 02:03:50,000 Speaker 2: two yards. On the other side, Jayden Daniels continues to 2511 02:03:50,080 --> 02:03:52,400 Speaker 2: impress twenty four to thirty five, two hundred and sixty 2512 02:03:52,480 --> 02:03:55,000 Speaker 2: nine yards, two touchdown, no picks. But here was the 2513 02:03:55,040 --> 02:03:57,840 Speaker 2: glaring staff for the Commanders. He was also their leading 2514 02:03:57,960 --> 02:04:02,040 Speaker 2: rusher with twenty two yards Asoler just nine kerries twenty 2515 02:04:02,120 --> 02:04:05,800 Speaker 2: one yards. So Jaden Daniels, as talented as he is, 2516 02:04:05,960 --> 02:04:09,000 Speaker 2: cannot do it alone. If the Commanders are going to 2517 02:04:09,320 --> 02:04:12,200 Speaker 2: keep pace in terms of, you know, being in the 2518 02:04:12,280 --> 02:04:14,280 Speaker 2: mix as far as the playoffs, they got to get 2519 02:04:14,320 --> 02:04:15,240 Speaker 2: a running game going here. 2520 02:04:15,360 --> 02:04:17,400 Speaker 4: They got to get a running game going. They need 2521 02:04:17,480 --> 02:04:19,680 Speaker 4: to get healthier in the backfield. That's a big part 2522 02:04:19,720 --> 02:04:23,160 Speaker 4: of that too. Look here, here's the reality of the 2523 02:04:23,280 --> 02:04:27,560 Speaker 4: situation for the Washington Commanders. You have a rookie quarterback 2524 02:04:27,600 --> 02:04:30,640 Speaker 4: who's great. It can't be all on his shoulders. You 2525 02:04:30,720 --> 02:04:32,720 Speaker 4: gotta get this guy some help with a running game. 2526 02:04:32,760 --> 02:04:34,839 Speaker 4: You gotta get this guy some help with your defense. 2527 02:04:35,280 --> 02:04:38,040 Speaker 4: If the defense could stop the run at all, the 2528 02:04:38,080 --> 02:04:40,400 Speaker 4: Commanders would be a much better football team this year. 2529 02:04:40,440 --> 02:04:43,040 Speaker 2: All right, Packers have closed out the Cardinals thirty four 2530 02:04:43,120 --> 02:04:45,880 Speaker 2: to thirteen. Jordan Love big game twenty two to thirty two, 2531 02:04:45,920 --> 02:04:48,240 Speaker 2: two hundred and fifty eight yards, four touchdowns, He had 2532 02:04:48,280 --> 02:04:51,480 Speaker 2: a pick. Josh Jacobs got sixty two yards rushing this game. 2533 02:04:51,520 --> 02:04:54,720 Speaker 2: Infect the Packers had one hundred and seventy nine yards rushing, 2534 02:04:55,120 --> 02:04:57,680 Speaker 2: so they rolled it up. Kyler Murray not much twenty 2535 02:04:57,760 --> 02:05:00,720 Speaker 2: two thirty two, two hund and fourteen yards and a score. 2536 02:05:01,680 --> 02:05:04,120 Speaker 2: But this was just not a good Cardinals game. Is 2537 02:05:04,160 --> 02:05:06,040 Speaker 2: this another coach that could be on a hot seat 2538 02:05:06,120 --> 02:05:06,760 Speaker 2: in Arizona. 2539 02:05:06,920 --> 02:05:10,080 Speaker 4: It's possible. It's possible. He seems to be well liked 2540 02:05:10,120 --> 02:05:12,560 Speaker 4: by the players out there, but it's possible. Look, a 2541 02:05:12,640 --> 02:05:16,320 Speaker 4: lot of teams are going the route of offensive head coaches. 2542 02:05:16,400 --> 02:05:19,360 Speaker 4: Jonathan genn And is not. He was a marvelous defensive 2543 02:05:19,400 --> 02:05:23,080 Speaker 4: coordinator with the Philadelphia Eagles. The selection to make him 2544 02:05:23,120 --> 02:05:26,560 Speaker 4: the head coach in Arizona seemed strange. But they were 2545 02:05:26,800 --> 02:05:29,360 Speaker 4: a scrappy team last year. They never quit in any game, 2546 02:05:29,400 --> 02:05:30,880 Speaker 4: and they gave a lot of teams a lot of 2547 02:05:30,960 --> 02:05:33,720 Speaker 4: hard times. But right now the Cardinals are falling on 2548 02:05:33,840 --> 02:05:37,320 Speaker 4: hard times. A two and three football football team and 2549 02:05:37,560 --> 02:05:40,520 Speaker 4: a bad loss on the road. And coming up next, 2550 02:05:40,600 --> 02:05:44,240 Speaker 4: I mean the Cardinals' schedule, it doesn't exactly lighten up. 2551 02:05:44,400 --> 02:05:47,480 Speaker 4: They're going to host the Chargers, who look Jim Harbaugh, 2552 02:05:47,960 --> 02:05:50,120 Speaker 4: he's got a tough nose squad, even though they're banged 2553 02:05:50,200 --> 02:05:50,839 Speaker 4: up with injuries. 2554 02:05:50,880 --> 02:05:52,400 Speaker 1: We'll see how they look after their bye. 2555 02:05:53,640 --> 02:05:57,560 Speaker 4: You have the Miami Dolphins on the road, tough place 2556 02:05:57,600 --> 02:05:58,840 Speaker 4: to play early in the season. 2557 02:05:59,240 --> 02:06:00,760 Speaker 1: You're gonna face the Bears at home. 2558 02:06:00,840 --> 02:06:04,680 Speaker 4: But the Bears they've been surging, so it's not exactly 2559 02:06:04,760 --> 02:06:08,160 Speaker 4: an easy path. So two and three very quickly could 2560 02:06:08,160 --> 02:06:08,879 Speaker 4: turn into. 2561 02:06:09,560 --> 02:06:11,600 Speaker 2: Well, he actually he's going to two and four, because 2562 02:06:11,720 --> 02:06:13,560 Speaker 2: that was two and three going into the Ohm. 2563 02:06:13,600 --> 02:06:16,120 Speaker 4: Sorry, two and three going into them. Two and four 2564 02:06:16,200 --> 02:06:20,080 Speaker 4: could turn into two and seven in three weeks. 2565 02:06:19,920 --> 02:06:23,200 Speaker 2: Easily, easily. Meanwhile, the Colts escape with a win on 2566 02:06:23,360 --> 02:06:27,040 Speaker 2: the road against the lowly Titans, twenty to seventeen. The 2567 02:06:27,160 --> 02:06:30,320 Speaker 2: finals score there Joe Flacco twenty two to thirty eight, 2568 02:06:30,320 --> 02:06:32,840 Speaker 2: one hundred and eighty nine yards, two touchdowns, one pick. 2569 02:06:32,920 --> 02:06:36,320 Speaker 2: Pretty pedestrian. But again you look at Will Levis's numbers. 2570 02:06:36,360 --> 02:06:39,120 Speaker 2: You're like, how is it possible to complete sixteen passes 2571 02:06:39,400 --> 02:06:41,800 Speaker 2: and only have ninety three yards passing, especially when you 2572 02:06:41,840 --> 02:06:44,320 Speaker 2: have DeAndre Hopkins, right, I mean, it's not like you 2573 02:06:44,440 --> 02:06:47,760 Speaker 2: totally void a talent. You know, Tony Pollard had a 2574 02:06:47,800 --> 02:06:50,480 Speaker 2: good day, seventeen carries, ninety three yards on the ground 2575 02:06:50,560 --> 02:06:54,200 Speaker 2: and a score. But again, they got some soul searching 2576 02:06:54,280 --> 02:06:55,880 Speaker 2: to do as far as their quarterback is going to 2577 02:06:55,880 --> 02:06:58,880 Speaker 2: score because Levis is not getting the job done. 2578 02:06:59,080 --> 02:07:02,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, two feasts and a quarterback Levis. I mean, some 2579 02:07:02,760 --> 02:07:06,160 Speaker 4: really great, brilliant plays mixed in with some really bone 2580 02:07:06,200 --> 02:07:09,880 Speaker 4: headed moments. Already this season, he's not getting the job done. 2581 02:07:09,920 --> 02:07:12,720 Speaker 4: And then you look at just this loss and you 2582 02:07:12,800 --> 02:07:14,920 Speaker 4: think about what you've seen in other games. The Tennessee 2583 02:07:15,000 --> 02:07:18,600 Speaker 4: Titans are undisciplined. You know, they had eleven penalties today. 2584 02:07:18,960 --> 02:07:23,320 Speaker 4: Eleven they were penalized over one hundred and ten yards. 2585 02:07:24,280 --> 02:07:27,400 Speaker 4: It's just it's ridiculous. You know, this is a far 2586 02:07:27,600 --> 02:07:31,920 Speaker 4: cry from the Mike Vrabel Tennessee Titans that look pretty 2587 02:07:31,960 --> 02:07:32,440 Speaker 4: buttoned up. 2588 02:07:32,560 --> 02:07:32,680 Speaker 10: Right. 2589 02:07:33,160 --> 02:07:36,839 Speaker 4: You know, you didn't have a greatness that quarterback with Tannehill, 2590 02:07:37,240 --> 02:07:40,640 Speaker 4: but during those days, those days you had Derrick Henry, 2591 02:07:40,680 --> 02:07:42,840 Speaker 4: and you had an offense that could control the clock. 2592 02:07:42,920 --> 02:07:45,400 Speaker 4: He had a defense that was fierce and flying around, 2593 02:07:45,840 --> 02:07:47,320 Speaker 4: and their defense is pretty good. 2594 02:07:47,440 --> 02:07:51,720 Speaker 1: But this offense is just it is. It is a 2595 02:07:51,960 --> 02:07:54,879 Speaker 1: struggle to watch the Tennessee Titans when they have the football. 2596 02:07:54,920 --> 02:07:57,640 Speaker 2: All right, Texans put away the Patriots. Final score forty 2597 02:07:57,680 --> 02:07:59,880 Speaker 2: one to twenty one. Sort of good news, bad news 2598 02:08:00,080 --> 02:08:03,240 Speaker 2: the Patriots. The good news is Drake May is their 2599 02:08:03,320 --> 02:08:06,440 Speaker 2: quarterback absolutely twenty thirty three to two hund and forty 2600 02:08:06,440 --> 02:08:09,480 Speaker 2: three yards, three touchdown passes. He also led the team 2601 02:08:09,920 --> 02:08:12,480 Speaker 2: with thirty eight yards on the ground. The problem for 2602 02:08:12,560 --> 02:08:15,800 Speaker 2: the Patriots and this game was their defense was awful, 2603 02:08:16,200 --> 02:08:18,440 Speaker 2: as they gave up one hundred and ninety two yards 2604 02:08:18,480 --> 02:08:20,560 Speaker 2: on the ground of Houston. Joe Mixon had one hundred 2605 02:08:20,560 --> 02:08:23,839 Speaker 2: and two yards on a score. Damian Pierce had seventy 2606 02:08:23,920 --> 02:08:24,960 Speaker 2: six yards in a score. 2607 02:08:25,080 --> 02:08:25,320 Speaker 1: C J. 2608 02:08:25,480 --> 02:08:28,760 Speaker 2: Stroud at pretty ordinary numbers by his standards, twenty of 2609 02:08:28,800 --> 02:08:30,440 Speaker 2: thirty one one hundred and ninety two yards. He did 2610 02:08:30,520 --> 02:08:34,080 Speaker 2: have three touchdown passes in this game. But at the 2611 02:08:34,240 --> 02:08:37,880 Speaker 2: very least for the Patriots, after their fifth straight loss, 2612 02:08:38,640 --> 02:08:41,800 Speaker 2: they have definitely found their quarterback. No looking back. 2613 02:08:41,880 --> 02:08:44,200 Speaker 4: Now, Yeah, it starts to make sense when you look 2614 02:08:44,280 --> 02:08:47,760 Speaker 4: at this game. The reason why the Patriots elected to 2615 02:08:47,920 --> 02:08:52,560 Speaker 4: start Drake May. That is now their third consecutive home 2616 02:08:52,680 --> 02:08:56,120 Speaker 4: loss of the season. Fourth pardon is it their fourth, No, 2617 02:08:56,280 --> 02:09:00,720 Speaker 4: it's their third consecutive home loss of the season. They 2618 02:09:00,920 --> 02:09:04,280 Speaker 4: win on a five game slide now since the kickoff 2619 02:09:04,360 --> 02:09:07,400 Speaker 4: of the season. After winning on the road at Cincinnati, 2620 02:09:07,800 --> 02:09:11,160 Speaker 4: the Boo Birds were coming out next week if Jacobe 2621 02:09:11,200 --> 02:09:16,000 Speaker 4: Burssett went out and laid an egg against the Houston Texans. Instead, 2622 02:09:16,320 --> 02:09:18,760 Speaker 4: Drake May gives the fan base hope. So now you 2623 02:09:18,840 --> 02:09:21,520 Speaker 4: have Patriots fans excited to show up and see what 2624 02:09:21,600 --> 02:09:25,160 Speaker 4: he can do against the struggling Jacksonville Jaguars team. After 2625 02:09:25,280 --> 02:09:29,080 Speaker 4: having a great look the interceptions, there's things to clean up, 2626 02:09:29,400 --> 02:09:32,640 Speaker 4: but a great first showing as a starting quarterback for 2627 02:09:32,720 --> 02:09:35,760 Speaker 4: this organization. So I think this was a little bit 2628 02:09:35,880 --> 02:09:39,480 Speaker 4: of hey, listen, the crowds turning against us. We need 2629 02:09:39,560 --> 02:09:42,800 Speaker 4: to inspire home field advantage. We have a tomb game 2630 02:09:42,880 --> 02:09:46,560 Speaker 4: home stint coming up against winnable opponents one in division 2631 02:09:46,920 --> 02:09:49,880 Speaker 4: after the Jacksonville Jaguars, they faced the Jets. It's time 2632 02:09:49,960 --> 02:09:51,480 Speaker 4: to make a change and that's the reason why they 2633 02:09:51,560 --> 02:09:52,280 Speaker 4: started Drake May. 2634 02:09:52,360 --> 02:09:54,920 Speaker 2: Today, two weeks into the season, we were asking the question, 2635 02:09:55,080 --> 02:09:57,800 Speaker 2: are the Saints for real? The answers, no, they're not. 2636 02:09:58,640 --> 02:10:01,560 Speaker 2: They are getting blown out at home by the Buccaneers. 2637 02:10:01,640 --> 02:10:04,480 Speaker 2: Just scored again on a short run by Bucky Irving. 2638 02:10:04,960 --> 02:10:08,640 Speaker 2: The Buccaneers in this game have three hundred and seventeen 2639 02:10:08,840 --> 02:10:13,280 Speaker 2: net yards passing and two hundred and thirteen rushing yards. 2640 02:10:13,800 --> 02:10:17,560 Speaker 2: That's five hundred and thirty yards of offense against the 2641 02:10:17,640 --> 02:10:20,600 Speaker 2: Saints team that scored all twenty seven of their points 2642 02:10:20,960 --> 02:10:24,480 Speaker 2: in the same quarter. The second quarter. Spencer Radler has 2643 02:10:24,560 --> 02:10:27,320 Speaker 2: been sacked four times. It has been an awful day, 2644 02:10:27,440 --> 02:10:30,080 Speaker 2: so any hopes that the Saints had after two weeks 2645 02:10:30,120 --> 02:10:32,400 Speaker 2: when they were at least two weeks into the season 2646 02:10:32,720 --> 02:10:35,600 Speaker 2: the most impressive team in the league has completely evaporated. 2647 02:10:36,000 --> 02:10:39,640 Speaker 2: Four straight losses pending five and a half minutes ago. 2648 02:10:39,720 --> 02:10:42,800 Speaker 2: Buccaneers lead this game by a score of forty four 2649 02:10:43,200 --> 02:10:44,680 Speaker 2: to twenty seven. 2650 02:10:44,880 --> 02:10:48,960 Speaker 4: And I mean basically, the Buccaneers kind of handed this 2651 02:10:49,160 --> 02:10:51,480 Speaker 4: game over the Saints and said, hey, do your best 2652 02:10:51,560 --> 02:10:55,000 Speaker 4: to beat us, because they threw three picks in this game. 2653 02:10:55,560 --> 02:11:00,000 Speaker 4: I mean, it's it has been somewhat of an uncas 2654 02:11:00,120 --> 02:11:04,280 Speaker 4: characteristically poor game for Baker Mayfield from the standpoint of 2655 02:11:04,720 --> 02:11:08,640 Speaker 4: protecting the football, because Baker has been good at that lately. 2656 02:11:09,280 --> 02:11:11,720 Speaker 4: But the Saints have not been able to do anything 2657 02:11:11,800 --> 02:11:14,920 Speaker 4: with the football with those extra opportunities. They've really been 2658 02:11:15,000 --> 02:11:18,480 Speaker 4: flummixed by this Buccaneers defense. Now, I mean, it's gonna 2659 02:11:18,480 --> 02:11:20,720 Speaker 4: be a high scoring game in the end, but the 2660 02:11:20,840 --> 02:11:25,240 Speaker 4: Bucks basically after the first halfway point of the first half, 2661 02:11:25,360 --> 02:11:27,440 Speaker 4: they really turned on the after burners and they haven't 2662 02:11:27,480 --> 02:11:27,880 Speaker 4: looked back. 2663 02:11:27,960 --> 02:11:30,480 Speaker 2: All Right, two games just underway. Chargers on the road 2664 02:11:30,520 --> 02:11:33,600 Speaker 2: against the Broncos. Steelers an early field goal, three to 2665 02:11:33,640 --> 02:11:36,520 Speaker 2: nothing lead on the road against the Raiders. We will 2666 02:11:36,640 --> 02:11:39,520 Speaker 2: update you on those games and other games about to 2667 02:11:39,680 --> 02:11:43,800 Speaker 2: kick off. This is Red Zone Radio, alright, rolling along 2668 02:11:43,920 --> 02:11:47,120 Speaker 2: here on a very busy NFL Sunday Red Zone Radio. 2669 02:11:47,400 --> 02:11:50,680 Speaker 2: Hartman and Urburger with you live from the tai IRAQ 2670 02:11:50,920 --> 02:11:54,800 Speaker 2: dot com studios. All Right, so the Chargers got a 2671 02:11:54,880 --> 02:11:57,560 Speaker 2: field goal on the road against the Broncos. Here's an 2672 02:11:57,600 --> 02:12:01,160 Speaker 2: interesting stat going into this game. Charger had a bye week. Course, 2673 02:12:01,240 --> 02:12:03,560 Speaker 2: they started the season with a couple wins, had a 2674 02:12:03,600 --> 02:12:08,600 Speaker 2: couple losses going into the by and when Jim Harbaugh 2675 02:12:08,680 --> 02:12:11,200 Speaker 2: was named the new head coach of the Chargers, Rich 2676 02:12:11,280 --> 02:12:14,040 Speaker 2: immediately course, you know he's talking about Justin Herbert. I mean, 2677 02:12:14,280 --> 02:12:18,520 Speaker 2: I've got this superstar quarterback, unbelievable quarterback. I've never had 2678 02:12:18,560 --> 02:12:22,920 Speaker 2: a quarterback like this. Chargers go into this game second 2679 02:12:22,960 --> 02:12:25,600 Speaker 2: to last in the league in passing yards thirty first 2680 02:12:25,680 --> 02:12:28,560 Speaker 2: in the league and passing offense ninth in the league. 2681 02:12:28,600 --> 02:12:31,520 Speaker 2: In rushing offense. Their offense has been running the ball, 2682 02:12:31,960 --> 02:12:33,880 Speaker 2: not passing the ball. And here you're on the road 2683 02:12:33,880 --> 02:12:36,560 Speaker 2: against the Broncos team that's rattled up three straight wins. 2684 02:12:37,360 --> 02:12:40,320 Speaker 2: Fourth and goal at the one yard line, and they 2685 02:12:40,440 --> 02:12:44,920 Speaker 2: kicked a field goal fourth and one, fourth and goal 2686 02:12:45,040 --> 02:12:47,080 Speaker 2: at the one yard line, and they went for the 2687 02:12:47,280 --> 02:12:52,400 Speaker 2: field goal with Justin Herbert as your quarterback. Meanwhile, the 2688 02:12:52,560 --> 02:12:55,360 Speaker 2: Raiders just ran in for a touchdown to take a 2689 02:12:55,440 --> 02:12:57,480 Speaker 2: six to three league witting on the extra point against 2690 02:12:57,520 --> 02:13:01,920 Speaker 2: the Steelers. DeVante Adams still active? What's your thought? Is 2691 02:13:02,000 --> 02:13:04,680 Speaker 2: DeVante Adams going to get traded? Are the Raiders still 2692 02:13:04,720 --> 02:13:06,400 Speaker 2: trying to hold out hope that they can get a 2693 02:13:06,520 --> 02:13:09,760 Speaker 2: second round pick for Devonte Adams? What's the hold up 2694 02:13:09,920 --> 02:13:12,320 Speaker 2: and where do you think ultimately he's going to end 2695 02:13:12,440 --> 02:13:13,360 Speaker 2: up Well, let's. 2696 02:13:13,120 --> 02:13:15,800 Speaker 1: Start with your first question, or really wasn't a question, 2697 02:13:15,920 --> 02:13:18,160 Speaker 1: it was a statement, And I think the statement is 2698 02:13:18,760 --> 02:13:21,920 Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh doesn't believe Justin Herbert's healthy enough to run 2699 02:13:21,960 --> 02:13:22,760 Speaker 1: a QB sneak. 2700 02:13:22,760 --> 02:13:23,320 Speaker 2: Apparently not. 2701 02:13:23,720 --> 02:13:26,760 Speaker 4: So that is a big issue for the Chargers moving 2702 02:13:26,840 --> 02:13:29,720 Speaker 4: forward because part of the reason why they were going 2703 02:13:29,760 --> 02:13:31,240 Speaker 4: to employ a rushing. 2704 02:13:30,960 --> 02:13:34,720 Speaker 1: Attack was to protect Justin Herbert and already it's failed. 2705 02:13:35,320 --> 02:13:38,080 Speaker 4: He's already gotten injured, maybe more severely than he was 2706 02:13:38,120 --> 02:13:40,960 Speaker 4: injured last year, since Jim Harbaugh has been on the scene. 2707 02:13:41,040 --> 02:13:44,280 Speaker 4: So look, some of that's lock up. Obviously, you can't 2708 02:13:44,320 --> 02:13:47,040 Speaker 4: help it. Quarterbacks get hurt in this league. So that's 2709 02:13:47,080 --> 02:13:49,800 Speaker 4: what that says to me. They don't trust Justin Herbert 2710 02:13:50,240 --> 02:13:52,240 Speaker 4: with the football in his hands with one yard because 2711 02:13:52,240 --> 02:13:55,080 Speaker 4: they're worried about his ankle, worried about his availability and 2712 02:13:55,240 --> 02:13:57,000 Speaker 4: what's behind him in the quarterback room. 2713 02:13:57,400 --> 02:13:57,800 Speaker 1: Not good. 2714 02:13:58,480 --> 02:14:02,720 Speaker 4: Moving on to to Adams, he is one hundred percent 2715 02:14:02,800 --> 02:14:05,520 Speaker 4: on the trading block. There is no question about this. 2716 02:14:05,720 --> 02:14:08,400 Speaker 4: He does not want to be there. Otherwise he would 2717 02:14:08,400 --> 02:14:11,240 Speaker 4: be playing football. And I promise you, after he gets traded, 2718 02:14:11,560 --> 02:14:14,600 Speaker 4: he will immediately be in the story. 2719 02:14:14,640 --> 02:14:17,600 Speaker 1: Amazing. Yeah, he will immediately be at the starting lineup 2720 02:14:17,640 --> 02:14:18,960 Speaker 1: for whatever team he gets traded to. 2721 02:14:19,320 --> 02:14:24,160 Speaker 4: So this is his agent saying to DeVante. Look, there's 2722 02:14:24,200 --> 02:14:28,760 Speaker 4: gonna be some bad press. Obviously. Raiders fans are not 2723 02:14:28,920 --> 02:14:32,440 Speaker 4: gonna like this. They are an ardent fan base. You're 2724 02:14:32,520 --> 02:14:35,800 Speaker 4: going to get a lot of replies and mentions and 2725 02:14:36,360 --> 02:14:38,920 Speaker 4: your social media is gonna fill up with hate. But 2726 02:14:39,120 --> 02:14:42,480 Speaker 4: hang tight because we're just waiting for the right package. 2727 02:14:42,880 --> 02:14:45,880 Speaker 4: The Raiders are motivated to get something done. You'll be 2728 02:14:46,000 --> 02:14:48,440 Speaker 4: out of Vegas in no time, and I promise you 2729 02:14:48,560 --> 02:14:51,600 Speaker 4: within the next two weeks, he's going to be playing 2730 02:14:51,600 --> 02:14:52,720 Speaker 4: for a different football team. 2731 02:14:53,080 --> 02:14:54,840 Speaker 2: By the way, the Buccaneers just scored a game. That 2732 02:14:54,920 --> 02:14:58,640 Speaker 2: game is just never gonna end fifty one. Remind me again, 2733 02:14:58,800 --> 02:15:01,080 Speaker 2: is Dennis Allen's like a defensive coach? 2734 02:15:01,160 --> 02:15:01,240 Speaker 8: Right? 2735 02:15:01,480 --> 02:15:02,320 Speaker 1: That is correct? Yeah? 2736 02:15:02,320 --> 02:15:05,280 Speaker 2: Okay, And they've lost four straight games after that two 2737 02:15:05,320 --> 02:15:08,120 Speaker 2: and oh start, and now they're just getting blown out, 2738 02:15:08,240 --> 02:15:11,680 Speaker 2: humiliated at home by the Buccaneers. That is all good? 2739 02:15:12,040 --> 02:15:16,640 Speaker 2: Would it be overstating the case that maybe Dennis Allen 2740 02:15:16,720 --> 02:15:18,160 Speaker 2: after that two and oh start could be on the 2741 02:15:18,200 --> 02:15:18,960 Speaker 2: hot seat already? 2742 02:15:20,160 --> 02:15:24,800 Speaker 4: I mean, yes, obviously, Dennis Allen's name was already skyrocketing 2743 02:15:24,960 --> 02:15:29,440 Speaker 4: up the board his potential hot seat candidates, alongside Robert 2744 02:15:29,520 --> 02:15:32,440 Speaker 4: Sala who lost his job, Doug Peterson who's in jeopardy 2745 02:15:32,480 --> 02:15:36,080 Speaker 4: of losing his job, Nick Sirianni in Philadelphia. But yeah, 2746 02:15:36,200 --> 02:15:39,120 Speaker 4: the Saints head coach Dennis Allen. I mean, since he's 2747 02:15:39,240 --> 02:15:41,040 Speaker 4: taken over, have the Saints. 2748 02:15:40,840 --> 02:15:41,960 Speaker 1: Really wowed anyone? 2749 02:15:42,400 --> 02:15:45,280 Speaker 4: And they've had a pretty decent defense at times, they 2750 02:15:45,480 --> 02:15:47,720 Speaker 4: just haven't been able to get it done With Derek Carr. 2751 02:15:47,720 --> 02:15:51,800 Speaker 4: Spencer Rattler looked subpart today, so there was a lot 2752 02:15:51,800 --> 02:15:54,560 Speaker 4: of excitement about what Rattler might bring to the fold 2753 02:15:54,960 --> 02:15:57,160 Speaker 4: offensively for the New Orleans Saints. 2754 02:15:57,480 --> 02:15:59,080 Speaker 1: And so far, his numbers. 2755 02:15:58,800 --> 02:16:02,640 Speaker 4: Today are abysmal seventeen to thirty three, passing two hundred yards, 2756 02:16:02,680 --> 02:16:05,440 Speaker 4: one touchdown, two interceptions. 2757 02:16:05,520 --> 02:16:06,680 Speaker 1: He's been sacked four. 2758 02:16:06,600 --> 02:16:10,080 Speaker 2: Times hold On rich The Saints defense has held Tampa 2759 02:16:10,120 --> 02:16:13,480 Speaker 2: Bay to two hundred and seventy seven yards rushing. Sean 2760 02:16:13,600 --> 02:16:15,880 Speaker 2: Tucker has one hundred and thirty six yards and has 2761 02:16:15,920 --> 02:16:19,240 Speaker 2: scored Bucky Irving has eighty one yards and has scored 2762 02:16:19,360 --> 02:16:24,200 Speaker 2: two hundred and seventy seven yards rushing for the Tampa 2763 02:16:24,240 --> 02:16:27,240 Speaker 2: Bay Buccaneers. You don't think, Hey, running the football with Tampa, 2764 02:16:27,280 --> 02:16:31,320 Speaker 2: it's about Baker Mayfield's got great receivers to seventy seven 2765 02:16:31,480 --> 02:16:32,240 Speaker 2: on the ground. 2766 02:16:32,440 --> 02:16:36,680 Speaker 4: I'm gonna say this, heading into the season, Sean Tucker 2767 02:16:36,800 --> 02:16:40,080 Speaker 4: rushed for thirty yards over his two years so far, 2768 02:16:40,680 --> 02:16:44,720 Speaker 4: and heading into this game, so far this season, yeah, 2769 02:16:44,840 --> 02:16:46,440 Speaker 4: had two carries for seven yards. 2770 02:16:46,920 --> 02:16:49,400 Speaker 2: Look what I'm trying to say, Sean Talker. Everybody who 2771 02:16:49,400 --> 02:16:51,879 Speaker 2: played Sean Tucker today on their fantasy team. 2772 02:16:52,120 --> 02:16:56,120 Speaker 14: Buddy Steve, everybody should have. Everybody knows he was due 2773 02:16:56,200 --> 02:17:01,040 Speaker 14: for a breakout to apparely so. So Yeah, Dennis Allen 2774 02:17:01,240 --> 02:17:05,119 Speaker 14: to the list of coaches. Definitely on the hot seat 2775 02:17:05,240 --> 02:17:07,280 Speaker 14: right now. All right, let's talk about a couple of 2776 02:17:07,320 --> 02:17:10,440 Speaker 14: games about to kickoff. A little bit earlier, Chris Meyers 2777 02:17:10,520 --> 02:17:13,040 Speaker 14: joined us. We talked about that Falcons Panthers game. But 2778 02:17:13,360 --> 02:17:15,360 Speaker 14: in that game, by the way, just kicking off right now. 2779 02:17:15,480 --> 02:17:18,240 Speaker 14: But let's face it, the game, the game we're watching 2780 02:17:18,520 --> 02:17:21,440 Speaker 14: Lions and the Cowboys, that game is just kicking off 2781 02:17:21,560 --> 02:17:24,560 Speaker 14: right now. The Cowboys season has been all over the place. 2782 02:17:24,680 --> 02:17:27,120 Speaker 14: Three and zero on the road, zero and two at home. 2783 02:17:27,200 --> 02:17:31,280 Speaker 2: They're at home against a Lions team whose quarterback I 2784 02:17:31,440 --> 02:17:34,280 Speaker 2: was trying to, you know, play We have these hunch bets, 2785 02:17:34,360 --> 02:17:38,040 Speaker 2: you know, like the over the top right on Saturdays, 2786 02:17:38,480 --> 02:17:39,840 Speaker 2: and so I said, I'm going to give you an 2787 02:17:39,879 --> 02:17:44,959 Speaker 2: over the top prediction. I get this, I win a point. Yeah, 2788 02:17:45,240 --> 02:17:48,480 Speaker 2: Jared Goff will have an incomplete pass. Okay, okay, And 2789 02:17:48,560 --> 02:17:51,040 Speaker 2: they didn't buy into that. Being outrageous, I said, why not. 2790 02:17:51,200 --> 02:17:54,200 Speaker 2: He was perfect last week, so if even has one incomplete, 2791 02:17:54,480 --> 02:17:58,279 Speaker 2: it's crazy. I say this about Jared Goff. Jared Goff 2792 02:17:59,800 --> 02:18:03,080 Speaker 2: right now, and I'm tracing the history of the National 2793 02:18:03,160 --> 02:18:07,640 Speaker 2: Football League is one of the ten most underrated quarterbacks 2794 02:18:07,680 --> 02:18:09,920 Speaker 2: in the history of the NFL because when you think 2795 02:18:09,959 --> 02:18:13,080 Speaker 2: about it with the Rams, the turnaround, obviously, when Sean 2796 02:18:13,160 --> 02:18:17,160 Speaker 2: McVay took over and then he hit the slide because well, 2797 02:18:17,320 --> 02:18:19,840 Speaker 2: Todd Gurley got hurt, they lost their running game. The 2798 02:18:19,879 --> 02:18:21,959 Speaker 2: play action was sort of out of the mix. When 2799 02:18:22,000 --> 02:18:24,440 Speaker 2: you think about last year, how did Matthew Stafford have 2800 02:18:24,520 --> 02:18:26,560 Speaker 2: a bounce back year? Kyron Williams showed up all of 2801 02:18:26,560 --> 02:18:28,760 Speaker 2: a sudden, they had a running game again. But when 2802 02:18:28,800 --> 02:18:31,640 Speaker 2: you look at what he has done over the course 2803 02:18:31,680 --> 02:18:35,080 Speaker 2: of his career, Jared Goff and really his lack of 2804 02:18:35,240 --> 02:18:38,440 Speaker 2: recognition for the quarterback he has been. I say he's 2805 02:18:38,680 --> 02:18:41,080 Speaker 2: incredibly underrated, and there's been. 2806 02:18:41,160 --> 02:18:46,160 Speaker 4: A bevy of underrated quarterbacks over the years. I would 2807 02:18:46,280 --> 02:18:49,000 Speaker 4: argue Philip River, as a former teammate of mine, falls 2808 02:18:49,040 --> 02:18:52,520 Speaker 4: in that category for the type of leader he was, 2809 02:18:52,680 --> 02:18:55,800 Speaker 4: the type of player having a player like him always 2810 02:18:55,879 --> 02:18:58,400 Speaker 4: gave you a chance on the outside looking in, the 2811 02:18:58,520 --> 02:19:01,320 Speaker 4: national narrative was very differ and I think that's the 2812 02:19:01,400 --> 02:19:03,840 Speaker 4: same for Jared Goff in teams that he quarterbacks. 2813 02:19:03,840 --> 02:19:04,720 Speaker 1: When he was with the Rams. 2814 02:19:04,800 --> 02:19:09,080 Speaker 4: With Sean McVay, Seawn helped unlock Jared Goff in a 2815 02:19:09,120 --> 02:19:11,720 Speaker 4: way that Steve Fisher didn't when he was a first. 2816 02:19:11,520 --> 02:19:12,400 Speaker 1: Overall draft pick. 2817 02:19:12,520 --> 02:19:13,040 Speaker 2: Jeff Fisher. 2818 02:19:14,959 --> 02:19:17,439 Speaker 1: Jeff Fisher. Steve Fisher was the San Diego State. 2819 02:19:17,320 --> 02:19:21,679 Speaker 2: Basketball not just a basketball coach all time the basketball. 2820 02:19:21,280 --> 02:19:24,320 Speaker 1: Than with the Michigan Wolfverines as well. But I digress. 2821 02:19:24,760 --> 02:19:28,400 Speaker 4: Jeff Fisher was tired of the nine and seven bull 2822 02:19:28,680 --> 02:19:32,000 Speaker 4: blank and ended up having a losing record after that 2823 02:19:32,120 --> 02:19:34,760 Speaker 4: win viral on Hard Knocks. So look, the deal is 2824 02:19:34,800 --> 02:19:37,240 Speaker 4: is since Sean McVay took over the Rams, he really 2825 02:19:37,360 --> 02:19:40,440 Speaker 4: unlocked something in Jared Goff, and it's something that everybody 2826 02:19:40,560 --> 02:19:42,440 Speaker 4: was hoping for. He was a first round talent for 2827 02:19:42,480 --> 02:19:46,640 Speaker 4: a reason out of cow and since then he's been 2828 02:19:46,720 --> 02:19:49,520 Speaker 4: on somewhat of a war path. It hasn't all been perfect, 2829 02:19:49,879 --> 02:19:53,640 Speaker 4: but since going to Detroit, it's basically been. He is 2830 02:19:53,720 --> 02:19:57,200 Speaker 4: a great leader. He's a great follower, and I think 2831 02:19:57,360 --> 02:19:59,920 Speaker 4: all great leaders need to be good followers as well. 2832 02:20:00,000 --> 02:20:02,400 Speaker 4: And what I mean by that is he does exactly 2833 02:20:02,600 --> 02:20:05,840 Speaker 4: what his offensive coordinator and his head coach tells him 2834 02:20:05,879 --> 02:20:09,199 Speaker 4: to do. He's a great game manager. I mean sometimes 2835 02:20:09,360 --> 02:20:12,720 Speaker 4: the running game takes over in Detroit, and as a result, 2836 02:20:13,040 --> 02:20:15,920 Speaker 4: Detroit has had some of the most phenomenal rushing attacks 2837 02:20:16,240 --> 02:20:19,160 Speaker 4: in games or seasons since Dan Campbell has taken over. 2838 02:20:19,520 --> 02:20:22,920 Speaker 4: And it takes a quarterback not making mistakes and putting 2839 02:20:23,320 --> 02:20:26,080 Speaker 4: a team behind the eight ball in games where their 2840 02:20:26,120 --> 02:20:29,000 Speaker 4: plan is to rush the football, and he doesn't. 2841 02:20:28,760 --> 02:20:30,480 Speaker 1: Make those mistakes. So I agree with you. 2842 02:20:30,560 --> 02:20:35,080 Speaker 4: I think Jared Goff is probably criminally underrated. However, you 2843 02:20:35,200 --> 02:20:37,040 Speaker 4: got to remember all the way back to when his 2844 02:20:37,200 --> 02:20:41,160 Speaker 4: career started, there were extremely high expectations on Jared goll He. 2845 02:20:41,240 --> 02:20:44,360 Speaker 2: Was the number one overall pick. Obviously, the Rams traded 2846 02:20:44,400 --> 02:20:46,760 Speaker 2: a botlead. This may be my only opportunity to get 2847 02:20:46,800 --> 02:20:50,400 Speaker 2: anything out of Chris since this game is actually underway. So, Chris, 2848 02:20:50,920 --> 02:20:53,280 Speaker 2: what are you expecting today from the Lions in this 2849 02:20:53,440 --> 02:20:57,000 Speaker 2: game at Dallas? Interception right off the bat is what 2850 02:20:57,120 --> 02:21:00,160 Speaker 2: we're expecting as I speak, the Lions of inns, the 2851 02:21:00,200 --> 02:21:02,520 Speaker 2: flag on the flag, Yeah. 2852 02:21:02,520 --> 02:21:04,400 Speaker 9: As I said, as I said, the third team is 2853 02:21:04,400 --> 02:21:07,000 Speaker 9: going to be a factor today. No, I think that 2854 02:21:07,200 --> 02:21:09,680 Speaker 9: opening drive for the defense is what you kind of expect. 2855 02:21:09,720 --> 02:21:13,080 Speaker 9: They're not gonna let Dallas run and there was a 2856 02:21:13,120 --> 02:21:16,480 Speaker 9: weird deflection pass and then you know, eighty eight could 2857 02:21:16,600 --> 02:21:20,560 Speaker 9: just missus a few arms tackle like they're gonna want. 2858 02:21:20,840 --> 02:21:22,920 Speaker 9: You're gonna get burned by the Cowboys a few times, 2859 02:21:23,360 --> 02:21:25,160 Speaker 9: but I think they're more content to try to have 2860 02:21:25,400 --> 02:21:28,680 Speaker 9: these kind of Yeah, that's that's holding on the Lions there. Yeah, 2861 02:21:29,760 --> 02:21:32,800 Speaker 9: just try to get them to make some mistakes and 2862 02:21:32,879 --> 02:21:36,080 Speaker 9: then roll them with your offense, which I think we'll 2863 02:21:36,120 --> 02:21:38,120 Speaker 9: see soon enough. But I think you've got two great 2864 02:21:38,200 --> 02:21:40,560 Speaker 9: running backs, and one just got very well paid in 2865 02:21:40,640 --> 02:21:43,520 Speaker 9: David Montgomery, who will be able to establish the run 2866 02:21:43,640 --> 02:21:46,400 Speaker 9: game and set up everything else that you need to 2867 02:21:46,440 --> 02:21:47,680 Speaker 9: dominate that side the ball. 2868 02:21:47,760 --> 02:21:48,400 Speaker 1: Well early on. 2869 02:21:48,560 --> 02:21:51,200 Speaker 2: Obviously the big opening drive for Dallas, and they obviously 2870 02:21:51,280 --> 02:21:54,360 Speaker 2: get the automatic first down, the interception off the board, 2871 02:21:54,600 --> 02:21:56,920 Speaker 2: first down for the Cowboys. They are now in the 2872 02:21:57,040 --> 02:21:59,480 Speaker 2: red zone against the Lions. All right, let's find out 2873 02:21:59,520 --> 02:22:02,240 Speaker 2: what is true. It's rending right now, and it's been 2874 02:22:02,280 --> 02:22:04,760 Speaker 2: a very busy day for all of us, but for Monsei, 2875 02:22:05,440 --> 02:22:08,080 Speaker 2: her marathon schedule is just beginning. 2876 02:22:08,240 --> 02:22:11,560 Speaker 7: It is just beginning now. Something interesting happened, but it's 2877 02:22:11,800 --> 02:22:12,760 Speaker 7: good news now. 2878 02:22:13,400 --> 02:22:16,560 Speaker 8: Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh was evaluated on the sideline 2879 02:22:16,640 --> 02:22:19,480 Speaker 8: and taking away and he was questionable to return with 2880 02:22:19,560 --> 02:22:22,200 Speaker 8: an illness. John Harbaugh of the Ravens was removed from 2881 02:22:22,240 --> 02:22:24,600 Speaker 8: his press conference to take a phone call to see 2882 02:22:24,640 --> 02:22:25,600 Speaker 8: what happened to his brother. 2883 02:22:25,879 --> 02:22:29,480 Speaker 2: Meanwhile, the Chargers just scored a touchdown on an absolutely 2884 02:22:29,840 --> 02:22:32,840 Speaker 2: perfect pass from Justin Herbert to Vidal. 2885 02:22:33,000 --> 02:22:36,160 Speaker 8: Right there, Jim Harbaugh is back on the sideline, yes, 2886 02:22:36,320 --> 02:22:39,199 Speaker 8: with his headset, but that that was weird for a second. 2887 02:22:39,760 --> 02:22:44,320 Speaker 8: Quentin Johnston of the Chargers is questionable to return with 2888 02:22:44,480 --> 02:22:47,280 Speaker 8: an ankle injury. But yes, they just scored a touchdown. 2889 02:22:47,360 --> 02:22:49,960 Speaker 8: So they're beating the Broncos nine to zero with five 2890 02:22:50,000 --> 02:22:53,560 Speaker 8: minutes to go in the first quarter. Alexander Madison with 2891 02:22:53,720 --> 02:22:56,039 Speaker 8: a rushing touchdown for the Raiders who are on top 2892 02:22:56,120 --> 02:22:58,480 Speaker 8: of the Steelers seven to three. Late in the first 2893 02:22:58,760 --> 02:23:00,920 Speaker 8: you just talked about the line and the Cowboys who 2894 02:23:01,080 --> 02:23:03,680 Speaker 8: just got underway. So they're scoreless, just like the Falcons 2895 02:23:03,920 --> 02:23:06,840 Speaker 8: and the Panthers scoreless, but they also just got underway. 2896 02:23:07,080 --> 02:23:08,920 Speaker 7: Back to the Ravens who are now four and. 2897 02:23:08,959 --> 02:23:11,600 Speaker 8: Two, just like Washington, but they did defeat the Commanders 2898 02:23:11,760 --> 02:23:14,600 Speaker 8: thirty to twenty three.

The Chargers, Wow, what a past that was 2949 02:25:28,200 --> 02:25:31,760 Speaker 2: by Justin Herbert. I mean, you talk about throwing a 2950 02:25:31,840 --> 02:25:34,200 Speaker 2: dime that was right on the money. But here's been 2951 02:25:34,240 --> 02:25:37,280 Speaker 2: the problem for the Chargers. Offensively, They've gotten off some 2952 02:25:37,440 --> 02:25:41,880 Speaker 2: fast starts and then they just stop. They've had a 2953 02:25:41,920 --> 02:25:44,200 Speaker 2: couple of games now where they've gotten off to you know, 2954 02:25:44,280 --> 02:25:47,760 Speaker 2: a quick start, touchdown here, you know, and then second 2955 02:25:47,840 --> 02:25:51,480 Speaker 2: halves they've been zero. I don't know if that's you know, 2956 02:25:51,600 --> 02:25:54,480 Speaker 2: the other team making some interesting adjustments, but you know, 2957 02:25:54,760 --> 02:25:56,640 Speaker 2: you get off to a nice start. Ten nothing laid 2958 02:25:56,720 --> 02:25:59,440 Speaker 2: on the road against the Broncos. Huge game for the Chargers. 2959 02:25:59,480 --> 02:26:01,880 Speaker 2: You're two and two coming up the buy. You know 2960 02:26:02,000 --> 02:26:04,400 Speaker 2: you're going against the three and two Broncos team. Obviously 2961 02:26:04,480 --> 02:26:07,720 Speaker 2: everyone's chasing the Chiefs right now, but really what you're 2962 02:26:07,760 --> 02:26:10,880 Speaker 2: trying to do is any get to ten wins? Can 2963 02:26:10,920 --> 02:26:12,760 Speaker 2: you go ten and seven, because that will get you 2964 02:26:12,840 --> 02:26:15,800 Speaker 2: a ticket in as a wild card in the AFC, 2965 02:26:16,040 --> 02:26:20,360 Speaker 2: and that's where the Chargers could conceivingly be. Winning today 2966 02:26:20,400 --> 02:26:22,520 Speaker 2: in Denver would be a big step in the right direction. 2967 02:26:22,760 --> 02:26:25,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, it'd be huge. It would be absolutely huge for 2968 02:26:25,280 --> 02:26:25,880 Speaker 1: the Chargers. 2969 02:26:26,160 --> 02:26:28,560 Speaker 4: And again, a team that is rolling off a five 2970 02:26:28,640 --> 02:26:32,720 Speaker 4: win season obviously made the big splashy hire this offseason. 2971 02:26:32,800 --> 02:26:36,480 Speaker 4: There were eight other or seven other jobs available in 2972 02:26:36,560 --> 02:26:39,760 Speaker 4: the NFL, and Jim Harbaugh had his pick. Basically after 2973 02:26:39,840 --> 02:26:42,840 Speaker 4: winning the National Championship Game with the Michigan Wolverines, and 2974 02:26:42,959 --> 02:26:46,560 Speaker 4: he chose La and they opened up the purse strings 2975 02:26:46,640 --> 02:26:48,600 Speaker 4: and this is really the first time in a long 2976 02:26:48,680 --> 02:26:49,640 Speaker 4: time that they've done that. 2977 02:26:50,240 --> 02:26:51,800 Speaker 1: And so far, I would. 2978 02:26:51,720 --> 02:26:55,960 Speaker 4: Argue, even in losses, the Chargers feel better led, They 2979 02:26:56,040 --> 02:26:59,600 Speaker 4: feel more consistent with Jim Harbaugh at the helm. However, 2980 02:26:59,760 --> 02:27:02,720 Speaker 4: to your point, you have some things to fix. Obviously, 2981 02:27:03,000 --> 02:27:05,880 Speaker 4: justin Herbert, you got to keep him healthy by whatever 2982 02:27:06,040 --> 02:27:08,560 Speaker 4: means necessary. He needs to remain on the field. The 2983 02:27:08,640 --> 02:27:12,400 Speaker 4: Chargers are better with him involved. And the second thing 2984 02:27:12,520 --> 02:27:14,280 Speaker 4: is you're right, if you're going to be a fast 2985 02:27:14,320 --> 02:27:16,680 Speaker 4: starting team, you got to learn how to be closers. 2986 02:27:17,000 --> 02:27:19,560 Speaker 4: Certain teams, especially teams that have been losing. 2987 02:27:19,400 --> 02:27:19,800 Speaker 1: For a while. 2988 02:27:19,879 --> 02:27:23,119 Speaker 4: Even though they replaced a lot of the old statesmen 2989 02:27:23,440 --> 02:27:26,280 Speaker 4: in the Chargers locker room, there's this feeling of we 2990 02:27:26,400 --> 02:27:27,440 Speaker 4: got to learn how to win. 2991 02:27:27,640 --> 02:27:29,879 Speaker 1: Well, the Chargers, they need to learn how to win. 2992 02:27:31,360 --> 02:27:35,680 Speaker 2: Bo Knicks was taken by the Broncos. Most people have 2993 02:27:35,840 --> 02:27:38,720 Speaker 2: projected Bo as a second round pick, not a first 2994 02:27:38,840 --> 02:27:42,600 Speaker 2: round pick. Sean Payton insisted Bo Knicks is the guy 2995 02:27:42,680 --> 02:27:46,280 Speaker 2: he wanted all along. His first couple of games were rough, 2996 02:27:46,640 --> 02:27:50,000 Speaker 2: like any rookie quarterback, but We're seeing progress of bow 2997 02:27:50,040 --> 02:27:52,920 Speaker 2: Knicks week after week. I know what I saw last 2998 02:27:53,000 --> 02:27:56,039 Speaker 2: year at Oregon. I mean, his completion percentage is almost 2999 02:27:56,160 --> 02:28:01,039 Speaker 2: eighty percent, and he can run, and he's more games 3000 02:28:01,160 --> 02:28:04,280 Speaker 2: at the Division IE level than any quarterback in history. 3001 02:28:04,360 --> 02:28:07,199 Speaker 2: Five year starter, three at Auburn, at two at Oregon. 3002 02:28:07,360 --> 02:28:10,240 Speaker 2: So you know, plenty of its not not to normal 3003 02:28:10,640 --> 02:28:13,600 Speaker 2: quarterback coming out of college with all the experience that 3004 02:28:13,680 --> 02:28:16,120 Speaker 2: he had. And even now he's showing a scramble where 3005 02:28:16,160 --> 02:28:17,880 Speaker 2: you can see the speed he can. He can make 3006 02:28:17,959 --> 02:28:19,760 Speaker 2: up yards what should have been a saconds of a 3007 02:28:19,840 --> 02:28:23,240 Speaker 2: no game. So this is going to be interesting. Uh. 3008 02:28:23,520 --> 02:28:26,120 Speaker 2: You know, you look at Sean Payton and all the 3009 02:28:26,240 --> 02:28:29,240 Speaker 2: success he had in building what may well be a 3010 02:28:29,440 --> 02:28:32,760 Speaker 2: Hall of Fame resume with the Saints and the partnership 3011 02:28:32,840 --> 02:28:37,359 Speaker 2: he had with Drew Brees there, and he likes this Bonnicks, 3012 02:28:38,520 --> 02:28:40,600 Speaker 2: I mean, this whole long way to go. The Broncos 3013 02:28:40,720 --> 02:28:45,480 Speaker 2: defense better than average. They don't have a huge weaponry, 3014 02:28:46,000 --> 02:28:48,840 Speaker 2: you know, repertoire for Knicks to turn to. But I'm 3015 02:28:48,879 --> 02:28:50,840 Speaker 2: going to be interested to see how this all plays 3016 02:28:50,879 --> 02:28:52,840 Speaker 2: out with bon Knicks and Sean Payton. 3017 02:28:53,280 --> 02:28:53,520 Speaker 1: Same. 3018 02:28:53,800 --> 02:28:56,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think Sean Payton's a heck of a football coach. 3019 02:28:56,400 --> 02:28:58,920 Speaker 4: I think bo Necks was a heck of a football 3020 02:28:58,959 --> 02:29:02,440 Speaker 4: player two different school He shined the most at Oregon. 3021 02:29:03,280 --> 02:29:06,039 Speaker 4: That was a heck of a run he had there. 3022 02:29:06,520 --> 02:29:09,600 Speaker 4: And I think what happened with Sean Payton this offseason 3023 02:29:10,040 --> 02:29:13,320 Speaker 4: was what happens with a lot of skillful play callers 3024 02:29:13,360 --> 02:29:15,480 Speaker 4: when they get their hands on a raw product out 3025 02:29:15,520 --> 02:29:18,800 Speaker 4: of college. You try to shape that raw product in 3026 02:29:18,959 --> 02:29:21,200 Speaker 4: your vision. So you say, oh, man, you know this 3027 02:29:21,400 --> 02:29:24,039 Speaker 4: used to work for Drew back in you know, twenty 3028 02:29:24,200 --> 02:29:27,480 Speaker 4: fifteen with the Saints, and we got this done against 3029 02:29:27,520 --> 02:29:30,360 Speaker 4: this team, and blah blah blah. Well, guess what Bonix 3030 02:29:30,400 --> 02:29:34,400 Speaker 4: isn't Drew Brees. Bonicks is intangibly different from the way 3031 02:29:34,440 --> 02:29:37,440 Speaker 4: he throws the football, his height, his stature in the pocket, 3032 02:29:37,840 --> 02:29:39,640 Speaker 4: the things he's able to do with his legs to 3033 02:29:39,720 --> 02:29:44,120 Speaker 4: extend plays. You're not coaching Drew Brees. So you have 3034 02:29:44,280 --> 02:29:47,560 Speaker 4: to dial into what Bonix does well. And I think 3035 02:29:47,640 --> 02:29:50,360 Speaker 4: they started incorporating a couple of things that you saw 3036 02:29:50,480 --> 02:29:53,280 Speaker 4: the Ducks do when Bonnicks was with Oregon, and as 3037 02:29:53,360 --> 02:29:55,560 Speaker 4: a result, he feels more comfortable in this offense. 3038 02:29:55,680 --> 02:29:58,880 Speaker 2: All Right, The Lions, having held the Cowboys to a 3039 02:29:59,000 --> 02:30:02,480 Speaker 2: field goal. Nothing. Cowboys early on are on the move. 3040 02:30:02,600 --> 02:30:05,199 Speaker 2: Right now, they have good news down at the Cowboys 3041 02:30:05,240 --> 02:30:07,480 Speaker 2: twenty yard line. Yes, Chris, good news, good news for 3042 02:30:07,600 --> 02:30:10,440 Speaker 2: your out on a limpic. Jared Goff did have a. 3043 02:30:10,440 --> 02:30:13,720 Speaker 9: Completion ending completion an incompletion. Okay, so that was the 3044 02:30:14,080 --> 02:30:16,640 Speaker 9: after a fourth throwing game deep shot to Tim Patrick. 3045 02:30:16,879 --> 02:30:19,320 Speaker 9: I mean, I don't care how long these throws are. 3046 02:30:19,440 --> 02:30:21,800 Speaker 9: Eighteen of eighteen is still mind. 3047 02:30:21,640 --> 02:30:23,880 Speaker 1: Blowing what he did last The fans want to know, 3048 02:30:24,400 --> 02:30:27,120 Speaker 1: how do you do it? How do you make these calls? 3049 02:30:27,480 --> 02:30:33,280 Speaker 2: Yes, believe me, it's years of practice. That's right, years 3050 02:30:33,320 --> 02:30:36,880 Speaker 2: of practice. Panthers. No score against the Falcons, but the 3051 02:30:36,959 --> 02:30:39,879 Speaker 2: Panthers have a third and seven at the eighteen yard line. 3052 02:30:40,200 --> 02:30:43,440 Speaker 2: Andy Dalton four seven passing forty eight yards. All right, 3053 02:30:43,520 --> 02:30:46,560 Speaker 2: keep an eye right now on the Lions as they 3054 02:30:46,640 --> 02:30:49,520 Speaker 2: have a second and three right now, trying to get 3055 02:30:49,560 --> 02:30:52,520 Speaker 2: a touchdown on their opening drive of the game against 3056 02:30:52,560 --> 02:30:59,199 Speaker 2: the Cowboys. And look at that gaping hole. Hey, touchdown Lions. Wow, 3057 02:31:01,160 --> 02:31:04,440 Speaker 2: that was some of the worst tackling I have ever seen. 3058 02:31:06,720 --> 02:31:09,240 Speaker 2: To drag him to the ground, Jersey. 3059 02:31:08,959 --> 02:31:12,320 Speaker 1: But they will not boy down, dude, here's the deal. 3060 02:31:13,360 --> 02:31:16,400 Speaker 2: There's really higher Mike zimmers their defense core. Look at 3061 02:31:16,440 --> 02:31:19,320 Speaker 2: this run by Montgomery. He finds a hole. There's a 3062 02:31:19,400 --> 02:31:23,160 Speaker 2: mistackle this. Watch this, watch him grab Yeah, like he 3063 02:31:23,200 --> 02:31:25,600 Speaker 2: should be down by the Oh that's just pathetic. 3064 02:31:25,840 --> 02:31:27,120 Speaker 1: That's not now. 3065 02:31:27,200 --> 02:31:30,320 Speaker 4: I mean, look, there's there's players in the NFL who 3066 02:31:30,360 --> 02:31:34,000 Speaker 4: will at times make some business decisions, and it felt 3067 02:31:34,040 --> 02:31:36,520 Speaker 4: like there were a couple of business decisions made on 3068 02:31:36,680 --> 02:31:39,520 Speaker 4: that play. Nobody wanted to take on Montgomery. He's been 3069 02:31:39,560 --> 02:31:42,080 Speaker 4: a hammer all season long. Yeah for this team. 3070 02:31:42,200 --> 02:31:44,959 Speaker 2: Well, twenty eight yards rushing and a score, so seven 3071 02:31:44,959 --> 02:31:48,879 Speaker 2: to three.

With four games 3084 02:32:33,640 --> 02:32:36,560 Speaker 2: going on right now in the NFL, and pretty good games, 3085 02:32:36,560 --> 02:32:39,000 Speaker 2: by the way, those first time we've really had no 3086 02:32:39,200 --> 02:32:41,640 Speaker 2: games in the morning that went down to the wire, Rich, 3087 02:32:41,800 --> 02:32:44,600 Speaker 2: so we had I won't say duds, because we had 3088 02:32:44,640 --> 02:32:47,640 Speaker 2: some entertaining games this none that went down to the wire. 3089 02:32:47,640 --> 02:32:49,959 Speaker 2: I want to thank our supporting crew today. Of course, 3090 02:32:50,080 --> 02:32:54,280 Speaker 2: Monsey doing an unbelievable job today. She hammered me in 3091 02:32:54,360 --> 02:32:56,680 Speaker 2: our picks also, so she'll be very happy when we 3092 02:32:56,760 --> 02:32:59,840 Speaker 2: reunited on our show on Saturday. Chris of course holding 3093 02:33:00,040 --> 02:33:02,400 Speaker 2: his breath that the Lions can you know, take it 3094 02:33:02,480 --> 02:33:06,400 Speaker 2: from here after an impressive opening drive, David Montgomery obviously 3095 02:33:07,280 --> 02:33:09,879 Speaker 2: dragging Cowboys into the end zone a good sign there, 3096 02:33:10,400 --> 02:33:13,280 Speaker 2: reminding you of why he got paid all that money. 3097 02:33:13,920 --> 02:33:16,320 Speaker 2: And by the way, Rich, I have a question for you. 3098 02:33:17,080 --> 02:33:19,879 Speaker 2: When is zero more than zero? 3099 02:33:20,560 --> 02:33:22,440 Speaker 1: When is zero more than zero? 3100 02:33:22,920 --> 02:33:23,120 Speaker 10: Right? 3101 02:33:23,560 --> 02:33:23,880 Speaker 1: I see? 3102 02:33:24,000 --> 02:33:25,920 Speaker 2: I thought there was no answer to that, but I 3103 02:33:26,120 --> 02:33:29,600 Speaker 2: just found out that our own bo Benson has found 3104 02:33:29,600 --> 02:33:35,000 Speaker 2: out the answer to when is zero more than zero? 3105 02:33:35,560 --> 02:33:36,840 Speaker 2: Explained to us well. 3106 02:33:38,560 --> 02:33:40,800 Speaker 6: Aj Brown's over on his receiving yards, and I had 3107 02:33:40,840 --> 02:33:45,480 Speaker 6: a special little thing to set Calvin Ridley's total to zero. 3108 02:33:45,879 --> 02:33:47,720 Speaker 6: So I took the over because I figured Calvin Ridley 3109 02:33:47,720 --> 02:33:49,600 Speaker 6: should have one catch, but he did not. He was 3110 02:33:49,680 --> 02:33:52,880 Speaker 6: famously shut out today, but they cashed it anyway. So 3111 02:33:53,000 --> 02:33:55,160 Speaker 6: I am now thirty dollars richer, and I think I'll 3112 02:33:55,200 --> 02:33:57,040 Speaker 6: be having Chipotle for lunch because I can afford it 3113 02:33:57,120 --> 02:33:57,959 Speaker 6: without going bankrupt. 3114 02:33:58,160 --> 02:34:01,560 Speaker 2: Wow, that is unbelievable. So zero zero actually turns out. 3115 02:34:01,440 --> 02:34:03,240 Speaker 6: To be more than zero when he comes to Calvin 3116 02:34:03,280 --> 02:34:05,800 Speaker 6: Ridley not doing anything on the football field, it apparently does. 3117 02:34:05,879 --> 02:34:09,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, the long standing question, and there's the answer, thank you, 3118 02:34:10,000 --> 02:34:14,040 Speaker 2: thank you. Only when Bo's involved is zero more than zero? 3119 02:34:14,320 --> 02:34:18,000 Speaker 2: Panthers take the early seven to nothing lead against the Falcons. 3120 02:34:19,040 --> 02:34:22,600 Speaker 2: But that shouldn't be a problem because Kirk Cousins. I 3121 02:34:22,840 --> 02:34:25,040 Speaker 2: was a little surprised. I mean that first game, woof, 3122 02:34:25,200 --> 02:34:27,440 Speaker 2: it looked like yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He looked 3123 02:34:27,520 --> 02:34:30,119 Speaker 2: like a guy coming off a blown Achilles. But he's 3124 02:34:30,120 --> 02:34:32,760 Speaker 2: been playing some pretty good football here Rich And of course, 3125 02:34:33,600 --> 02:34:36,800 Speaker 2: right now, Falcon's trying to keep pace with the Buccaneers 3126 02:34:37,320 --> 02:34:38,560 Speaker 2: in that NFC South. 3127 02:34:38,800 --> 02:34:41,000 Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of Kirk Cousins, and I always 3128 02:34:41,080 --> 02:34:41,480 Speaker 1: have been. 3129 02:34:41,800 --> 02:34:44,800 Speaker 4: I have. I have a soft spot in my heart 3130 02:34:44,959 --> 02:34:47,160 Speaker 4: for a good leader and a good guy, and I 3131 02:34:47,240 --> 02:34:48,440 Speaker 4: think he's both those things. 3132 02:34:48,520 --> 02:34:49,800 Speaker 1: For every team he's played for. 3133 02:34:50,360 --> 02:34:56,800 Speaker 4: He's been a voice of reason and persistence, and I 3134 02:34:56,959 --> 02:35:01,199 Speaker 4: think he's obviously been uneven in his play at times. 3135 02:35:01,320 --> 02:35:04,960 Speaker 4: It got much better with Kevin O'Connell in Minnesota. I 3136 02:35:05,040 --> 02:35:07,320 Speaker 4: think he took a big step forward in his career 3137 02:35:07,720 --> 02:35:12,439 Speaker 4: as a pocket passer, managing games better, making better decisions 3138 02:35:12,480 --> 02:35:14,720 Speaker 4: down the field with the football. There were times in 3139 02:35:14,840 --> 02:35:18,720 Speaker 4: his time in his early career with Washington where he 3140 02:35:18,760 --> 02:35:21,039 Speaker 4: would take too many gambles. He has a big arm, 3141 02:35:21,120 --> 02:35:23,120 Speaker 4: you know, That's something that people don't talk about. But 3142 02:35:23,200 --> 02:35:24,760 Speaker 4: he could get the ball down the field. But there 3143 02:35:24,800 --> 02:35:27,640 Speaker 4: were times where he would throw it into double coverage 3144 02:35:27,680 --> 02:35:29,840 Speaker 4: and it's like, you know, come on, Kirk, you're not 3145 02:35:30,000 --> 02:35:31,160 Speaker 4: that guy, you know what I mean. 3146 02:35:32,120 --> 02:35:34,320 Speaker 1: In fact, there are so few people who are that 3147 02:35:34,520 --> 02:35:35,039 Speaker 1: guy who. 3148 02:35:35,000 --> 02:35:38,640 Speaker 4: Can bullet pass it thirty yards in between coverage and 3149 02:35:39,440 --> 02:35:41,000 Speaker 4: hit the target on the run. 3150 02:35:41,200 --> 02:35:41,320 Speaker 1: You know. 3151 02:35:41,440 --> 02:35:45,039 Speaker 4: Mahomes, Josh Allen, there's these special talents, these guys who 3152 02:35:45,080 --> 02:35:49,040 Speaker 4: are that that good down the field. But Kirk Cousins 3153 02:35:49,120 --> 02:35:51,840 Speaker 4: settled into his career and as a result, he's one 3154 02:35:51,840 --> 02:35:54,440 Speaker 4: of the highest paid quarterbacks playing and he's playing like it. 3155 02:35:54,520 --> 02:35:58,720 Speaker 2: In Atlanta, Raiders lead the Steelers seven to six, which 3156 02:35:58,800 --> 02:36:02,280 Speaker 2: which your sense on the field's situation. Russell Wilson now 3157 02:36:02,320 --> 02:36:07,840 Speaker 2: apparently practicing. You know, Steelers won those first three games 3158 02:36:07,920 --> 02:36:14,280 Speaker 2: to start, a couple losses, fields, numbers or ordinary. What 3159 02:36:14,400 --> 02:36:16,800 Speaker 2: do you do if you're the Steelers in your quarterback. 3160 02:36:16,800 --> 02:36:20,320 Speaker 4: You evaluate every single week. You just continue the and 3161 02:36:20,440 --> 02:36:23,280 Speaker 4: you don't have to tell Justin Fields that it doesn't 3162 02:36:23,320 --> 02:36:26,240 Speaker 4: need to be in plain English, but you evaluate him 3163 02:36:26,240 --> 02:36:28,680 Speaker 4: every single week. As Russell Wilson is getting healthier, it 3164 02:36:28,760 --> 02:36:31,120 Speaker 4: gives you an option. So if this team is four 3165 02:36:31,200 --> 02:36:33,120 Speaker 4: and two by the end of the day, going on 3166 02:36:33,240 --> 02:36:34,960 Speaker 4: the road and getting a win with Justin Fields and 3167 02:36:35,040 --> 02:36:37,600 Speaker 4: his numbers are good and he didn't make any boneheaded 3168 02:36:37,640 --> 02:36:40,640 Speaker 4: decisions that put your you know, defense in a bind 3169 02:36:40,720 --> 02:36:43,560 Speaker 4: or put your team in a hole, well, I mean, 3170 02:36:43,640 --> 02:36:45,920 Speaker 4: it makes the decision to stick with Justin Fields a 3171 02:36:45,959 --> 02:36:48,440 Speaker 4: lot easier. Now if he goes out there lays an 3172 02:36:48,440 --> 02:36:52,400 Speaker 4: egg and the Steelers tumble to a three and three record, 3173 02:36:53,040 --> 02:36:55,199 Speaker 4: and you have a chance to reset with a healthy 3174 02:36:55,280 --> 02:36:59,080 Speaker 4: Russell Wilson. Well, that's a decision that you're gonna be 3175 02:36:59,240 --> 02:37:01,800 Speaker 4: forced to make. And so, like I said, going back 3176 02:37:01,800 --> 02:37:03,440 Speaker 4: to the initial thing I said when you asked me 3177 02:37:03,480 --> 02:37:06,119 Speaker 4: about Fields, it's it's week to week, it's day to day. 3178 02:37:06,240 --> 02:37:09,600 Speaker 4: Keep the evaluation open. And as long as he's playing 3179 02:37:09,680 --> 02:37:12,400 Speaker 4: like a winner, as long as you're winning football games 3180 02:37:12,440 --> 02:37:14,040 Speaker 4: with Justin Fields, keep him as a starter. 3181 02:37:14,240 --> 02:37:17,039 Speaker 2: Wow, we got a hum dinger tonight, don't we. Bengals Giants? 3182 02:37:17,400 --> 02:37:18,560 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, oh yeah. 3183 02:37:18,760 --> 02:37:21,560 Speaker 4: Moly, a team that can't score against a team that 3184 02:37:21,680 --> 02:37:22,760 Speaker 4: can't stop the score. 3185 02:37:22,959 --> 02:37:26,640 Speaker 2: I am still completely baffled by what the Bengals did 3186 02:37:26,800 --> 02:37:29,400 Speaker 2: in that overtime. Oh boy, last way, I mean, it 3187 02:37:29,520 --> 02:37:33,760 Speaker 2: was just absolutely stunning. Meanwhile, we have an interception in 3188 02:37:33,920 --> 02:37:38,600 Speaker 2: the end zone by the Lions and Dak Prescott. Oh my, 3189 02:37:39,160 --> 02:37:42,360 Speaker 2: I mean here he is the highest paid player in 3190 02:37:42,400 --> 02:37:45,480 Speaker 2: the league. They're in a position and he throws a 3191 02:37:45,959 --> 02:37:49,000 Speaker 2: interception that just is ugly. 3192 02:37:49,040 --> 02:37:52,160 Speaker 1: Not good, not good. You know, he was getting ceedee 3193 02:37:52,200 --> 02:37:54,000 Speaker 1: lamb going earlier in the drive. 3194 02:37:54,680 --> 02:37:59,119 Speaker 4: Dak Prescott It's been an interesting start to the Dallas 3195 02:37:59,160 --> 02:38:01,800 Speaker 4: Cowboys season. We were talking about it earlier. They dropped 3196 02:38:01,840 --> 02:38:04,959 Speaker 4: this game. That's three straight at home after winning sixteen 3197 02:38:05,160 --> 02:38:09,160 Speaker 4: straight games at home over the portions of two seasons. 3198 02:38:09,240 --> 02:38:12,520 Speaker 4: So it would be very bad for the Dallas Cowboys, 3199 02:38:12,640 --> 02:38:15,800 Speaker 4: especially with Mike McCarthy on a lame duck year. 3200 02:38:16,160 --> 02:38:17,280 Speaker 1: He was not extended. 3201 02:38:18,000 --> 02:38:21,760 Speaker 4: He's, I guess, finishing his coaching contract and then riding 3202 02:38:21,800 --> 02:38:24,959 Speaker 4: off into the sunset. Unless we hear otherwise from Jerry Jones, 3203 02:38:25,560 --> 02:38:29,000 Speaker 4: It's gonna be very strange if this Dallas Cowboys team 3204 02:38:29,400 --> 02:38:32,360 Speaker 4: starts to struggle, because you could lose the locker room 3205 02:38:32,480 --> 02:38:33,160 Speaker 4: real fast. 3206 02:38:33,600 --> 02:38:38,560 Speaker 2: Meanwhile, the Broncos, excuse me, the Broncos trailing ten nothing 3207 02:38:38,680 --> 02:38:40,520 Speaker 2: right now, and the Chargers are on the move again. 3208 02:38:40,720 --> 02:38:43,480 Speaker 2: So so far, so good for the Chargers. Also, a 3209 02:38:43,600 --> 02:38:47,000 Speaker 2: quick comment about Joe Burrow, who was my preseason pick 3210 02:38:47,080 --> 02:38:49,560 Speaker 2: to be the MVP because of death. But his numbers 3211 02:38:49,600 --> 02:38:52,720 Speaker 2: have been great club touchdowns, two picks. You know he 3212 02:38:52,800 --> 02:38:55,240 Speaker 2: saw it for all these yards. But the Bengals defense 3213 02:38:56,320 --> 02:38:58,600 Speaker 2: is the worst in the league.
