1
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:12,600
Speaker 1: We are just over seventy two hours away from perhaps

2
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:17,800
Speaker 1: the best matchup of wild Card weekend, Bears Packers Round

3
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 1: three of a heavyweight fight in the North. Brian Baldinger

4
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:24,279
Speaker 1: will be here to break down the battle lines at

5
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:28,640
Speaker 1: Soldier Field. We got five other games on this wild

6
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:32,880
Speaker 1: Card weekend, and we got a lot of fascinating characters

7
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 1: in those games. Michael f Florio, our own fascinating character,

8
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,240
Speaker 1: will be here tonight to tell you who is worth

9
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 1: watching and.

10
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 2: Who could turn these matchups.

11
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 1: We've also got seven head coaching vacancies, plus a couple

12
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:50,160
Speaker 1: of vacancies for gms around the NFL like Sir John

Speaker 1: Harbaugh and Kevin Stefanski are available. So whenever one of

14
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 1: these guys takes one of those jobs, what is their

18
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 1: and Judy Batist. I am Tom Peliicerro. That's right, three

19
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 1: days away from play off football. We will get to

20
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 1: all six of these matchups through the course of the

21
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 1: next hour. But first, let's talk about some people on

22
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 1: teams that did not make the postseason and the fallout

23
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: from it, starting out in Tampa, where head coach Todd

24
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 1: Bowles told the Tampa Bay Times today he will.

25
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 3: Return as Bucks coach. In twenty twenty.

26
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: Six, Bulls led TAMPAA three straight NC South titles before

27
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 1: falling short on tiebreakers at eight to nine. This season,

28
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 1: he told the Times he will make some staff changes.

29
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 1: No official statement from the team yet on Bowls status.

30
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 4: Judy Heaven Stefanski, who was fired this week by the

31
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 4: Cleveland Browns, is already out there on the job interview circuit.

32
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 4: He met with the New York Giants last night. He

33
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 4: had dinner with general manager Joe Shane. Today he met

34
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 4: for an interview. The former two time Coach of the

35
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 4: Year also has an interview schedules with the Tennessee Titans.

36
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 4: There are expected to be others interested in talking to Stefanski.

37
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 4: He's certainly seen as one of the strongest candidates he

38
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 4: and in this cycle, maybe right behind John Harbaugh.

39
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 5: A lot of coaches in this cycle, former head coaches,

40
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 5: A couple of hot coordinators keep an eye on as well,

41
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 5: including that guy right there, not a household name, but

42
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,960
Speaker 5: about to be considering that Clint Kubiak is the offensive

43
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,639
Speaker 5: coordinator for the number one seed in the NFC, requested

44
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 5: to interview by the Baltimore Ravens and four other teams.

45
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 5: Going to interview with the Raiders. I believe that's on Friday,

46
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 5: So Friday Saturday his window. Anthony Weaver the defensive coordinator

47
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,800
Speaker 5: for the Miami Dolphins. He has several requests as well,

48
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 5: has had interviews in the last several cycles.

49
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 2: This one no different.

50
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 5: Ravens, who obviously familiar with him from his time there,

51
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,959
Speaker 5: Cardinals and Falcons are on Anthony Weavers dance card.

52
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: Tom did we mention we had six wild card playoff

53
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 1: games coming up this weekend, of course, the aforementioned Packers

54
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 1: Bears game. We've got a tripleheader on Sunday, Texan Steelers

55
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 1: wrapping things up on Monday night, but it all kicks

56
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 1: off on Saturday afternoon, a rematch with the Rams and

57
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 1: the Panthers, who were just a few weeks.

58
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,640
Speaker 3: Removed from upsetting LA.

59
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 1: This time around, it appears they'll have to deal with

60
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 1: Devonte Adams. He was a full participant in practice on Wednesday,

61
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 1: hasn't played since week fifteen because of a hamstring injury.

62
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 1: But Adam's back on the field now a full participant,

63
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: really good. Signed for his availability on Saturday against Carolina, and.

64
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 5: Josh Allen also a full participant for the Buffalo, though

65
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 5: is not a hamstring it's been a foot injury that

66
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 5: actually has been bothering him for I think about a

67
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 5: month it has been. He's got x rays after the

68
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 5: last couple of games, didn't play barely at all last week.

69
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 2: Now it's playoff time.

70
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 5: Rested extensively last week, got barely any playing time. He

71
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 5: is good to go for the Buffalo Bills, and that

72
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 5: is an excellent sign considering his superpower isn't just his

73
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 5: arm duty, it's how he runs, and as far as

74
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 5: I can tell, feet are very important to players running.

75
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 2: So he should be able to do that. This weekend.

76
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 4: Injuries with the story of the season for the forty

77
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 4: nine ers, and unfortunately that continues all worlds left tackle

78
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,160
Speaker 4: Trent Williams, who's dealing with a hamstring injury, and receiver

79
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 4: Ricky Pearsall who has knee and ankle injuries. Neither of

80
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:31,039
Speaker 4: them practice today. That cast their availability for the Sunday

81
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 4: Wildcard game against the Eagles.

82
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 2: In some doubt.

83
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,720
Speaker 4: Kyle Shannon is hopeful they will be able to get

84
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 4: some work in tomorrow. He did acknowledge that Pearsall aggravated

85
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 4: his PCO during the week seventeen games, so they are

86
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:44,600
Speaker 4: in the same boat. We will see if they can

87
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 4: get out there. That would certainly be a significant blow

88
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 4: for the Niners if they cannot go on Sunday against

89
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 4: the Eagles.

90
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 6: You're built aldest rivalry. Those two cities don't like each other,

91
00:04:58,920 --> 00:04:59,279
Speaker 6: he said.

92
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 7: Vance I'll just want you to know you better have

93
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 7: your team ready because we're gonna.

94
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:04,279
Speaker 3: Kick your ass.

95
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 1: I mean, is that everything, But it's the only thing,

96
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: the oppression.

97
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 2: We're gonna be.

98
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 3: I like that about it.

99
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 6: There's a wader again.

100
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 8: Head off the furry r. You could have a complete

101
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 8: losing season, but if you meet the Bears, that ways

102
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:28,839
Speaker 8: your season.

103
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 3: We're gonna separate the men from the boys.

104
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 7: We're gonna find out who really wants to play this

105
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 7: game and who.

106
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:35,039
Speaker 3: Does not.

107
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: These days, but I got them right there watching that

108
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 1: Montage Bears Packers. No rivalry has been played more often

109
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 1: Brian Baldiger, And here they are for the third time

110
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 1: this season, going at it in a playoff game. And

111
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 1: Prime Time break this battle down. For me, it's only

112
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 1: you can bone well.

113
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:56,840
Speaker 9: I mean, this is a true rubber match, and the

114
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 9: way you define a rubber match. You know, the winner

115
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,840
Speaker 9: moves on the loser home. That's the definition of a

116
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 9: rubber match. Both have won one, both tight games. You

117
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 9: look at the stashdown, they were almost even in all games.

118
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 9: What separated the first game from the second game really

119
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 9: was the big plays in the passing game. You know,

120
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,559
Speaker 9: in the first game, you know, I thought that Christian

121
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 9: Watson had some big plays almost one hundred yards. He

122
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 9: had the big forty one yard touchdown against him, and

123
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,359
Speaker 9: that was a big play in the game. You know,

124
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 9: you're looking at bou Melton right there with the big play.

125
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:29,719
Speaker 9: So I thought the pass game. And then really in

126
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 9: the Bears comeback, it was a big game by Dj Moore.

127
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 9: Of course he had the game winner, the forty six

128
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 9: yarder in overtime. And so I feel like, why wouldn't

129
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,360
Speaker 9: that still separate the two that both teams are going

130
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 9: to try to run the ball. Both teams will probably

131
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 9: be pretty effective with pretty good run games, but the

132
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 9: explosive plays, the big plays come out of the passing

133
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 9: game and who's gonna be those guys. Is it gonna

134
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 9: be Luther Burton? Is it gonna be Za Kias right here?

135
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,360
Speaker 9: Is it gonna be Dj Moore?

136
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 3: For Green Bay?

137
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,039
Speaker 9: Is gonna be Romeo Dobbs, is going to be Watson?

138
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 9: You know who's going to step up in the passing

139
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,840
Speaker 9: game right now? And I think that's really going to

140
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 9: separate it. Because the Bears lead the league in interceptions.

141
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 9: They know the ball's going to be in the air,

142
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 9: and Jordan Love has got a great arm and a

143
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 9: lot of receivers, So I kind of feel like that's

144
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 9: going to separate who's going to step up in the

145
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 9: receiving in the passing game to make the big plays

146
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 9: when it counts The most.

147
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:29,040
Speaker 1: Tonna are Good coverage presented by Progressive Insurance. The Eagles

148
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: have allowed fifteen point six points per game since Week ten,

149
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,960
Speaker 1: That is the fewest in the NFL, and they have

150
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 1: at least one takeaway in nine consecutive games, the second

151
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 1: longest active streak behind the Bears, who have done it

152
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 1: in ten.

153
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 3: This week, the Eagles take on.

154
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 1: The forty nine ers, who had a shot at the

155
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 1: number one seed. And when you come up short in

156
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 1: a division like the NFC West of the number one seed,

157
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you're a wild card going to

158
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 1: one of the tougher places in the NFL to win,

159
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 1: and that is in Philadelphia against the defending champs.

160
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 2: You can see that game four.

161
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 1: Thirty pm Eastern time on Sunday on Fox. You can

162
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: see our guys, Steve Whitz right here with me, Tom

163
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: Pelisero on the Insiders, Steve forty nine Ers Eagles. We've

164
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 1: seen these types of mattrics in the past. Both these teams.

165
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 1: The identity feels like it's similar.

166
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 3: What do you expect?

167
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 10: Yeah, this is new a significant chess match between the

168
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 10: Eagles defensive coording of Vic Fangio and then Kyle Shanahan, the.

169
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 2: Head coach in OC for San Francisco. But for San

170
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 2: Francisco to have.

171
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 10: Any success offensively and actually through the game, it has

172
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 10: got to sustain some eight, nine and ten place scoring drives. Well,

173
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 10: how can they do that against that defense that you

174
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 10: just talked about, and maybe without left tackle Trent Williams.

175
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 10: They've got to work their intermediate passing game. They've got

176
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 10: to get the ball to Christian McCaffrey. In that passing game,

177
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,439
Speaker 10: They've got some advantages against the Eagles linebackers. You can

178
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 10: do it with McCaffrey off tackle here in the run,

179
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 10: but with their tight ends right with Tanjas, with Kittle,

180
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 10: Kyle hughescheck in some of those matchups as well, and

181
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:03,439
Speaker 10: death by paper cut occupy the clock. They cannot allow

182
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,440
Speaker 10: their defense to go up to stay on the field

183
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 10: too long against the Philadelphia Eagles because as we saw

184
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 10: last week, they are prone and very susceptible against the

185
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 10: explosive play in the run game, and they are favorable

186
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,720
Speaker 10: matchups by the Eagles with their passing game on the perimeter.

187
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,559
Speaker 10: So again San Francisco brought perty on the move. McCaffrey here,

188
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 10: Kittle there, tanj just Juwan Jennings. They've got to spread

189
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 10: it out, but take advantage into the intermediate part of

190
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 10: the field for them to have offensive success and to

191
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 10: keep the Eagles from getting the ball.

192
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 1: The Eagles forty nine Ers Sunday on Fox. Steve, thank

193
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: you very much, Judy.

194
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 4: All right, this is the game that's going to kick

195
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 4: off wildcard weekend Rams Panthers. This is the rematch of

196
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 4: the regular season game. This is Saturday, four thirty eastern

197
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 4: on Fox.

198
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 2: Again.

199
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:54,080
Speaker 4: This starts the whole wild card weekend. Let's bring in

200
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 4: our Sarah Walshoe I believe is going to be at

201
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 4: this game, so she doesn't even need the TV information,

202
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 4: and Baldy is back as well.

203
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 7: Sarah.

204
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 4: Let me start with you because this is a short week.

205
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 4: It's a Saturday afternoon game and a really long flight

206
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 4: for the Rams. What's their week of preparation looking like.

207
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 11: Well, Matthew Stafford was asked this week why they have

208
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:17,200
Speaker 11: had such success on short weeks and he joke, well,

209
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:18,760
Speaker 11: it's because they got a young quarterback.

210
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 2: That helps.

211
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:23,960
Speaker 11: Kidding aside, and you know they they landed in London

212
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 11: and they were there for really almost about twenty four hours,

213
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 11: and then they throttled the Jaguars in that game. And

214
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 11: this is a team Sean mcva says, they like to

215
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 11: get up and you go.

216
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 2: He says that he likes these East Coast windows.

217
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,359
Speaker 11: Now it helps that his thirty seven years young quarterback

218
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 11: Matthew Stafford is going to be getting DeVante Adams back,

219
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 11: you guys were talking about at the top of the show.

220
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 11: He has missed the last three games because of that

221
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 11: hamstring injury. Adam says he doesn't believe that a couple

222
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 11: of weeks off is going to deteriorate the success that

223
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 11: he and Stafford have had this season. And for his part,

224
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 11: Stafford said he just kind of has to throw it

225
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 11: in the ballpark of Adams and let him go get it.

226
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 11: These two teams met back in week thirteen back in

227
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 11: Carolina and Stafford was asked what he would like to

228
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 11: do differently from that game, which was a Rams lost,

229
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,560
Speaker 11: and he said, not throw it to the other team.

230
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 11: He was picked twice in that one also had a

231
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 11: strip stack of him to end the game. So they're

232
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 11: going to get a redo, Baldy when it matters the most.

233
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,000
Speaker 9: You It's interesting, Sarah that we're watching DeVante Adams for

234
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 9: much of the clip while you were talking, because he's

235
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 9: been out for the last month. And I've never talked

236
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 9: to Davante early this season when he was having instant

237
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 9: success with Stafford after not really practicing at all all preseason,

238
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,280
Speaker 9: when Stafford was out with that back injury, and I

239
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 9: just asked him, like, how you had such instant chemistry.

240
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 3: I mean, he still leaves the league with fourteen.

241
00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 9: Touchdown catches, not playing the last three games, and he said,

242
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,520
Speaker 9: you know, we're just veteran guys. We talked every day

243
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 9: about scenarios, releases, places on the field.

244
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 3: I mean you get down to the five yard line.

245
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's great to have Pukinnakua, but it's also great

246
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 9: to have Davante on the other side. And it's been

247
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,199
Speaker 9: a while now since we've seen both those guys out

248
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:02,559
Speaker 9: there together, and gives Stamford a staff for those opportunities.

249
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 9: We know the tight ends have been clutched all year long,

250
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:09,080
Speaker 9: but getting Davante back for this offense, I think it

251
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 9: gives them a spark that they that they've really had

252
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 9: been missing the last couple of weeks.

253
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 3: That especially in a couple of those close losses.

254
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 4: Sarah, you mentioned the Week thirteen Panthers victory. They put

255
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 4: up thirty one points on the Rams that week. But

256
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 4: the Panthers have one of the lowest rated offenses in

257
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,440
Speaker 4: the league. They're going against the number one defense in

258
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 4: the Rams. What do we expect from Bryce Young and

259
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 4: the Panthers offense.

260
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 11: Let's go around, Well, that Week thirteen game you reference,

261
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 11: Bryce Young was completely lights out in that game, and

262
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 11: he was asked repeatedly this week how he feels about

263
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 11: once again being the underdog to the Rams by double digits,

264
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 11: and he said he doesn't care. He told us that

265
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 11: confidence comes from within that building, that they trust each other,

266
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 11: that they don't need to look at anything external for

267
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 11: any kind of motivation, and when you want to look internally,

268
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 11: here's where things are looking up for the Pan. They

269
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,440
Speaker 11: are expected and are on track to get Robert Hunt,

270
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 11: their Pro Bowl lineman, back this week. He has been

271
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 11: out since Week two with that foreign biceps. The game

272
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 11: that they beat the Rams, they were missing three key

273
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 11: defensive players in Trayvon Marrek J C. Horne, they were

274
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,959
Speaker 11: missing Christian Rosewoom. Those guys are all back in action.

275
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 11: As for Bryce Young making his first postseason appearance, I

276
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 11: was talking to Byron Young on the Rams. He's their

277
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 11: sack leader. He faced Bryce Young in college twice. He

278
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 11: said they hit him again and again and again when

279
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 11: he was at Tennessee and Bryce was at Alabama, and

280
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 11: he said, this guy just stood there and delivered every

281
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 11: single time. He's like, I put hits on this guy

282
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 11: and he shouldn't have got up, and I would just

283
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 11: look at him, and this guy kept getting up. He said,

284
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 11: I have mad respect.

285
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 2: That is from one Young to another.

286
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 11: But you better believe the Young on the Rams is

287
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 11: going to try and get after him once again.

288
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:51,960
Speaker 2: But it is tough to rattle this guy. Baldy.

289
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 11: He is calm, he is cool, He has collected even

290
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 11: when they are down, Bryce Young has found ways to

291
00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 11: fight back this year.

292
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 9: Well, he was awesome in that earlier win against the

293
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 9: Ramsey threw three touchdowns. We showed them all to jail

294
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 9: and cocher Teed McMillan and to Rico Dudell. But getting

295
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,720
Speaker 9: Robert Hunt back, I mean, just talking to guys in

296
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,439
Speaker 9: Carolina a couple of weeks ago before the Seattle game,

297
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 9: I mean he's one of the best run blockers in

298
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 9: the league. Their running game takes off when Robert Hunt.

299
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 9: I mean literally, he's a highway that they run behind.

300
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 9: If he gets out there and he's up to form.

301
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 9: By the way, he's four feet wide, he takes up

302
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 9: a lot of space and he's a great run blocker.

303
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 3: Their run game will pick up.

304
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 9: And those guys inside, Kobe Turner, some of those guys

305
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 9: by Young, all those guys will get tested. If Robert

306
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 9: hunts on his game and he gets that John Deere

307
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 9: tractor going up front, the running game will.

308
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 4: Approve Panther's offense versus a top ten scoring defense in

309
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 4: the Rams. Sarah Baldi, thank you very much.

310
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 2: Ian.

311
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 5: With all that's gone on in the NFL world, this

312
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 5: seems like a million years ago, but don't forget it

313
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 5: was one of the most dramatic games we saw this year,

314
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 5: one of the most dramatic games we've seen in some time.

315
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 5: Tyler Loop wide right. John Harbaugh ends up losing his job.

316
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 5: The Pittsburgh Steelers get to celebrate, setting up this matchup

317
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 5: Steelers Texans with the largest age gap between starting quarters.

318
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 2: I mean, look at this, it's all Tom Brady.

319
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 5: I mean, are there other ways for us to show

320
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 5: that Tom Brady was so old and some of the

321
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 5: people that he played were so young. Anyway, Welcome to

322
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 5: the party, Aaron Rodgers and CJ.

323
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 2: Stroud.

324
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 5: So let's get into this game right here. I want

325
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 5: to welcome in Bucky, Bucky. This is a fantastic matchup

326
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 5: on ESPN and ABC Monday Night Football.

327
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 2: Steelers Texans.

328
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:47,000
Speaker 5: One of the nastiest defenses in the NFL, maybe the nastiest.

329
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:50,479
Speaker 2: I'm biased. I love watching Matt Burks unit.

330
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 5: Take us through what this Texans defense has and what

331
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 5: they're going to show us in this matchup.

332
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 12: Well, if you know the Texans defense, you know they

333
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 12: operate with a swore mentality. They want to run to

334
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 12: the ball, they want to knock people out when they

335
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 12: get there. And one of the things that they want

336
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 12: to do against the Pittsburgh Steelers they want to make

337
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 12: Aaron Rodgers uncomfortable in the pocket. When we saw Aaron

338
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 12: Rodgers on Sunday Night football have arguably the best game

339
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 12: that he's had in the Stiller's uniform, it was because

340
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 12: he was comfortable, didn't get touched, was able to operate

341
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 12: from a clean pocket. That allowed him to deliver the

342
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 12: ball to Pat Fronmouth and Adam Thielen and Calvin Austin.

343
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 12: With DK Metcalf coming back, the Texans have to get

344
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 12: bidies around him. Did Neil Hunter, Will Anderson Junior. They

345
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,400
Speaker 12: have to be major factors because for the Texans, they

346
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 12: want to rush for keep seven in coverage, make things

347
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 12: sticky on the outside.

348
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 13: But it starts with knocketing Aaron Rodgers around.

349
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 12: If they're able to disrupt the rhythm in the timing

350
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 12: of the passing game by getting around Aaron Rodgers, it's

351
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 12: gonna be hard for Pittsburgh to hit that twenty point mark.

352
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 12: Remember the Texans hold most appointments to under twenty. For

353
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:56,680
Speaker 12: the Stellers to get this, it's gonna take explosive place

354
00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 12: and that requires a clean pocket for Aaron Rodgers to

355
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 12: get it done.

356
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 5: Well, and you mentioned it, but having dk metcalp back

357
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 5: missed the last two games with the suspension just an

358
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 5: unbelievable boost for this Steelers offense.

359
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 2: That got it done.

360
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,399
Speaker 5: Definitely got it done, but I think needs a little juice.

361
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,159
Speaker 5: They are going to get that, not this weekend, but

362
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:17,679
Speaker 5: on Monday night. Bucky, great stuff as always, thank you.

363
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 5: I cannot wait for that matchup. And then to the

364
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 5: news we saw early in the week. There was a

365
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:25,680
Speaker 5: lot of it and there was some of it, most

366
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:30,439
Speaker 5: recently John Harbaugh losing his job after eighteen seasons. We

367
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:34,360
Speaker 5: have plenty more on that, including talking to someone very

368
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 5: close to him.

369
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 14: Coming to next by the Inside.

370
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:50,160
Speaker 4: Welcome back to the Insiders presented by Progressive Insurance. Still

371
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,520
Speaker 4: trying to wrap my head around this one. John Harbaugh

372
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,440
Speaker 4: no longer the coach of the Baltimore Ravens, fired yesterday.

373
00:17:56,440 --> 00:18:00,680
Speaker 4: He is drawing plenty of interest elsewhere though. Here's his brother,

374
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:02,959
Speaker 4: Jim Harbaugh on John's firing.

375
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 8: John John Harbaugh is the best coach I know, best

376
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 8: coach I've ever seen. And you may say, Okay, well

377
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 8: I'm his brother, so I might be biased, but uh well,

378
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 8: then you have somebody like Tony Dungee. Wouldn't we all

379
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 8: like that? You know, wouldn't we all like somebody like

380
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 8: Tony Dungee, especially Tony Dungee himself too, you know, say that.

381
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 8: It's just it's it's great, you know, seeing that kind

382
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:36,879
Speaker 8: of outpouring and of support and also just just so

383
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 8: cool see all my brother's accomplishments, you know, and be

384
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 8: and be recognized for that. And you know, I just

385
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,440
Speaker 8: as I told him, you know what, whatever team he

386
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:51,159
Speaker 8: goes to is going to be formidable. And I just

387
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:52,120
Speaker 8: hope it's in the NFC.

388
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:57,360
Speaker 4: Love that all right. Here are the openings. There are

389
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:02,919
Speaker 4: seven now you see them, Ravens, Giants, Browns, Falcons, Cardinals, Titans, Raiders.

390
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,679
Speaker 4: Interviews are already starting, lots of requests are already in.

391
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:07,880
Speaker 13: We are here to help.

392
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:11,400
Speaker 4: We want to give some advice to whoever lands these jobs.

393
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 4: What should be their first order of business? How do

394
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 4: you reset these franchises. Some of them need a bigger

395
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 4: reset than others. Quite frankly, I've got my guys, Steve

396
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 4: Bucky Baldy here to give us some answers.

397
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:27,640
Speaker 13: All right, Steve, I will start with you on the Ravens.

398
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,360
Speaker 4: If you got that job, put on your coach's hat

399
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,640
Speaker 4: or with soul or whatever coaches put on. What would

400
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 4: be your first order of business at the Ravens.

401
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,960
Speaker 10: Well, first, dude, this is the least reset that has

402
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,399
Speaker 10: to go on because the culture is already established and

403
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 10: I'm coming in and win now mo. This is not

404
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 10: a redevelopment mode. So win now MO. When I've got Lamar,

405
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 10: when I've got Mark Andrews and Ronnie Stanley and Zay

406
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 10: Flowers with the offensive line, I'm addressing that first.

407
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 2: We've got to get tougher.

408
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 10: Whether it's a personnel or attitude, we are going to

409
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 10: get tougher because running the football is going to be

410
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 10: the priority. A little too, my, it's mixed finesse in

411
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 10: there that I'm meeting with Lamar. What do you want

412
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 10: you to get better? Here's what I want you to

413
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 10: get better. It will be our way, not anybody's way,

414
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 10: but the team's way.

415
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 4: I definitely have the Ravens as my number one most

416
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,879
Speaker 4: attractive job. All right, Bucky, let's talk about the Browns.

417
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:18,800
Speaker 4: I have them at number four. What would be your

418
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 4: first order of business if you went to Cleveland?

419
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,400
Speaker 12: Well, the first order of business is the first order

420
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,919
Speaker 12: business that every coach has when he takes over to

421
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 12: Cleveland Browns is that's figuring out the quarterback situation. What

422
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:30,960
Speaker 12: you have to do now is to huddle up with

423
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 12: Andrew Berry and you have to determine are we better

424
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 12: with your doer centers of Dylan Gabriel or one of

425
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,160
Speaker 12: the quarterbacks that could be available into twenty twenty six

426
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:41,879
Speaker 12: draft class. We can talk about Fernando Mendoz if he

427
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 12: comes out. Todd Simpson has declared from Alabama. So looking

428
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:47,639
Speaker 12: at the tape and trying to figure out are we

429
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,160
Speaker 12: better off continue to go to the course with Chaduur

430
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 12: or Dylan Gabriel or looking at one of these young

431
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,959
Speaker 12: quarterbacks to be the face of the franchise going forward.

432
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,120
Speaker 12: That debate is where we start, and once we make

433
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 12: that decision is about building the team around the quarterback

434
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 12: that we select.

435
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:05,439
Speaker 13: But it has to be getting to a quarterback right

436
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 13: in Cleveland.

437
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 4: There's a lot to like about the Atlanta Falcons. I thought, Baldy,

438
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 4: what would be your first order of business if you

439
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 4: went to Atlanta.

440
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 9: Well, I think we all know Arthur Blank to a degree,

441
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 9: and the fact is the Falcons have only been relevant

442
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 9: whether they had Mike Vick or Matt Ryan, period, and

443
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:25,640
Speaker 9: so they've got to figure out the quarterback situation. The

444
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 9: fans go to the stands to watch the quarterback play.

445
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:33,120
Speaker 3: The team around the quarterback is very good. They hit

446
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:34,120
Speaker 3: on every draft.

447
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:37,800
Speaker 9: Pick last year in the first four picks, Piers jail Walker,

448
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 9: Xavier Watts, Bowman. The offensive line is solid. We all

449
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,520
Speaker 9: know what Bijon is and Drake London is. I mean,

450
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 9: they've got to get this quarterback situation figured out and

451
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 9: then go win the division.

452
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,400
Speaker 3: Go claim the division with that position figured out.

453
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 9: Whether it's the draft, whether it's free agency, whether it's

454
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 9: a trade, whether you think Kirk Cousins has years left

455
00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 9: because I don't think Michael Pennicks can be ready to

456
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 9: start season.

457
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 3: So they've got to get that figured out immediately.

458
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 4: All right. Moving on to the Arizona Cardinals, Steve I

459
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:11,400
Speaker 4: have them as the fifth most attractive job on my list?

460
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 4: What would you do for the Arizona Cardinals.

461
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:16,879
Speaker 10: First, I would rent and not buy based on how

462
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 10: quickly they turn overhead coaches. But as much of a

463
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,360
Speaker 10: fan as I am of Kyler Murray's, I just think

464
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 10: it's a natural time for them to separate because the

465
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:27,440
Speaker 10: injury history has proven even when he was at his best,

466
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,639
Speaker 10: they could not consistently compete with Seattle, with San Francisco,

467
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:31,919
Speaker 10: or for the La Rams.

468
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:33,400
Speaker 3: So move on with him.

469
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,159
Speaker 10: Maybe go get someone like a Mac Jones and draft

470
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 10: a quarterback, maybe not in the first round, but develop

471
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,320
Speaker 10: somebody there. Because I am building the rest of the

472
00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,879
Speaker 10: team in order. First, I'm taking a page out of

473
00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:46,960
Speaker 10: Dan Campbell and Brad Holmes book and making my team

474
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 10: like the Detroit Lions, tough around the lines of scrimmage

475
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,359
Speaker 10: because you're seeing Trade McBride. I've got some skilled position

476
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,040
Speaker 10: players there, but I've got to get tougher up front

477
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,640
Speaker 10: if i want to compete in the NFC West.

478
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:00,920
Speaker 4: Bucky, out of the seven openings, I have the Tennessee

479
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 4: Titans at number six. What would you do for the

480
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:04,960
Speaker 4: Tennessee Titans.

481
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 13: Well, the good thing of you to Tennessee Titans.

482
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:11,399
Speaker 12: You feel great about your franchise quarterback and cam Ward.

483
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:13,840
Speaker 12: Now it's about making sure that he has some weapons

484
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 12: around him, some playmakers.

485
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 13: In this draft, I'm looking to get a number one.

486
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:21,480
Speaker 12: Receiver, someone that can change the defense, meaning someone that

487
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:23,920
Speaker 12: can force the defense either double team him or we're

488
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,400
Speaker 12: going to create big plays down the field. In this draft,

489
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:28,760
Speaker 12: there are a couple guys that are coming out, Jordan Tyson,

490
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:32,239
Speaker 12: Carnell Tate, someone that is a true number one that

491
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 12: can take the top off of the coverage that we

492
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:36,719
Speaker 12: can push the ball down the field and open up

493
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 12: the rest of the offense.

494
00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:42,679
Speaker 13: But I'm starting an ending my rebuilding process with finding

495
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:46,119
Speaker 13: a true number one receiver to unlock the potential of

496
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,720
Speaker 13: cam Ward and this offense that we have in Tennessee.

497
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,159
Speaker 4: All right, Baldy, I live in New York, so if

498
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,359
Speaker 4: you put on sports talk radio, you will hear a

499
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,359
Speaker 4: million things that people think the Giants need to do

500
00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:00,880
Speaker 4: as soon as they get a coach there. They are

501
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:04,600
Speaker 4: my number two most attractive team. What would be your

502
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:06,359
Speaker 4: first order of business if you were at the New

503
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 4: York Giants.

504
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,440
Speaker 9: Well, the first order of business, Judy, is to say

505
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,280
Speaker 9: that I believe that Jackson Dark is a franchise quarterback.

506
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 9: I don't need to go outside the organization and find

507
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:15,400
Speaker 9: anybody to.

508
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:16,520
Speaker 3: Compete with me. He's my guy.

509
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:18,720
Speaker 9: I see enough of them this year. What I didn't

510
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,879
Speaker 9: see enough of Judy was any playmakers. I know Malik

511
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 9: got hurt this year, elite neighbors that is, and we

512
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:26,240
Speaker 9: know he's going to come back.

513
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 3: He'll be healthy.

514
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 9: I thought Wandale Robinson had a great season, and he's

515
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 9: an energy giver.

516
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:34,440
Speaker 3: He's not an energy taper. I want Wandale on my team.

517
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 3: I like Tyrone.

518
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:40,520
Speaker 9: Tracy, and I like Scataboo, but I want playmakers for

519
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 9: Jackson Dark. I think the tight end position can be upgraded.

520
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:47,199
Speaker 9: They can find another great offensive lineman to go to

521
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,200
Speaker 9: a group that was pretty good this year and give

522
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,359
Speaker 9: me some receivers that can change the game. And never

523
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:56,320
Speaker 9: stop building around this kid. I'm tired of him having

524
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 9: to do that to gain first downs. Put his head

525
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 9: down and run guys over. Other guys need to do that.

526
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:03,959
Speaker 9: He knows how to disperse the ball and get it

527
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:08,919
Speaker 9: to the playmakers. He needs playmakers. Free agency, draft trades,

528
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 9: just start piling them.

529
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 4: Up, all right, and I will take the last one,

530
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 4: and they are last in my ranking the Raiders. The

531
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,600
Speaker 4: first order of business certainly is to figure out what

532
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,480
Speaker 4: is going on with Max Crosby, and frankly, I would

533
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,199
Speaker 4: consider trading Max Crosby. I think it would be a

534
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 4: win win. Let him go somewhere where he could finally

535
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 4: win and stockpile a lot of draft picks. This is

536
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 4: a huge reset for the Raiders. You've got to rebuild.

537
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:38,280
Speaker 4: You need all of the draft ammunition you can possibly get.

538
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:42,959
Speaker 4: Consider trading Max Crosby. Whoever gets that job with the

539
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:44,440
Speaker 4: Vegas Raiders.

540
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,879
Speaker 6: Hey Aj, i'm aj. We can do really fun stuff

541
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 6: with the tents. So now let's imagin Thanks for tennis.

542
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:05,000

00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,960

544
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 3: Less.

00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 5: Martellus Bennett, super Bowl champion, former NFL tight End International

554
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 5: Man of Mystery. First of all, Marty, congratulations on all this.

555
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 2: This is extremely cool.

556
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,480
Speaker 5: Uh, you spend a lot of time and a lot

557
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:51,160
Speaker 5: of work went into this. As you see that trailer,

558
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:54,320
Speaker 5: what are you thinking as you're watching your work kind

559
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 5: of come to life?

560
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 2: Man?

561
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 3: It is very very exciting.

562
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 7: And you know, sometimes I sit up in a all

563
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 7: night and I watched the small clips that we have

564
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:04,960
Speaker 7: on YouTube and give me a little ice cream, and

565
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:07,119
Speaker 7: I cried a little bit while watching it. You know,

566
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:11,360
Speaker 7: it's just like, not very often do many people get

567
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 7: a chance to see their dreams come true. I've been

568
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:17,159
Speaker 7: fortunate enough to see many of my dreams become be

569
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 7: manifested into my reality. So each time it happens, I

570
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 7: just I feel encouraged, and I feel empowered, and I

571
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:29,520
Speaker 7: feel liberated to dream about doing more things.

572
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:34,440
Speaker 5: Okay, so I got some questions related to the sport.

573
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:36,679
Speaker 5: We cover football in a second, but first let me

574
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 5: ask you this. So you spent a long time in

575
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 5: the NFL. You were always kind of a guy who,

576
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:44,199
Speaker 5: you know, was very good at football, but had some

577
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 5: varied interests that they gets safe to say this is

578
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:47,160
Speaker 5: one of them.

579
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 2: What else you got in store for us.

580
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 7: Oh well, I just right now I write a book

581
00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 7: about God. It'll be my tough book. But I just

582
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,639
Speaker 7: released a book called Watermelon Summers. And I've been writing

583
00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 7: more philosophy and more not just children books, but I

584
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:06,159
Speaker 7: jumped over to write more philosophy and more historical fiction,

585
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 7: auto ethnographys and things like that. So I been very

586
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:14,639
Speaker 7: interested in at the apology, sociology, psychology, and theology and

587
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 7: kind of like clashing all those things to get them

588
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:22,600
Speaker 7: to create all types of stories and share ideas of

589
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 7: that clash of identity for just humanity as all as

590
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 7: a whole.

591
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 5: Not surprised to hear that, very cool, look forward to

592
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:35,880
Speaker 5: checking those out. I mean literally not couldn't be less surprised.

593
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:38,000
Speaker 5: I want to talk about football a little bit.

594
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:38,200
Speaker 2: Though.

595
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 5: You played for the Packers, you played for the Bears.

596
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:45,120
Speaker 5: They played each other on Saturday night on Amazon Prime Video.

597
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 5: It is a special rivalry. You have seen both sides

598
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:52,160
Speaker 5: of it. What makes Bears Packers so special?

599
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 7: I think one is just a location, right just you

600
00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:58,440
Speaker 7: know you're right down the street from each other.

601
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:04,000
Speaker 3: Just those battles and the legacy.

602
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 7: I think there's not very There's not a whole lot

603
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 7: of like deep, deep legacy teams, and both of those

604
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:12,760
Speaker 7: are historical teams throughout the league, you know, just their

605
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 7: identities and how they've been branded. There are working class

606
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 7: people and it's just like this clash of identities and

607
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 7: what they represent. So I think it's just more about

608
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 7: the history between the teams and how long they've been

609
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 7: around and how much they have been able to win, how.

610
00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 3: Much they haven't been able to win, you know, more

611
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:31,320
Speaker 3: moderate times. So I mean the Bears.

612
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 7: It's interesting for the bearriage because the Bears are a

613
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 7: team who have marketed the past, right, the past has

614
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 7: been there, how they made their dollars to eighty five Bears.

615
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 3: What we used to be.

616
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:44,719
Speaker 7: Now we're trying to see who the Bears can't become

617
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 7: and who they will be moving forward. So I'm interested

618
00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:51,440
Speaker 7: in seeing these teams built on history to be built

619
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,720
Speaker 7: on futurism. What they how the market that and you know,

620
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 7: you got these young Caacks coming in at quarterback and

621
00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:58,440
Speaker 7: all these other positions.

622
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 3: Now the legacy is changing to tomorrow instead of yesterday.

623
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,840
Speaker 7: So I'm very excited that for that as a franchise

624
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 7: for the city of Chicago, because Chicago is a very

625
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 7: city that I hope very dearly in my heart and

626
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 7: I love it.

627
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:11,920
Speaker 3: Wisconstant not so.

628
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:22,200
Speaker 6: Much ever again in my life, you know so.

629
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:24,960
Speaker 7: But I think that's a big part of it is

630
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 7: you know, uh, you know, the cheese and the fans like.

631
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 3: It's gonna be a good game, So uh this it

632
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 3: will be interesting to watch.

633
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 5: One of your other former teams has become a juggernaut again.

634
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,840
Speaker 5: The New England Patriots wanted to build there obviously uh

635
00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 5: no Bill Belichick, but the newer, different sort of version

636
00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 5: of Bill Belichick and Mike Rabel someone who obviously uh

637
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 5: learned from Bill and has really instilled a lot of

638
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,360
Speaker 5: good culture things in that organization. They are rolling again

639
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,160
Speaker 5: with Drake may. I know you don't watch a ton

640
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:59,120
Speaker 5: of football, but what have you seen or heard from

641
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:02,040
Speaker 5: your former friend franchises thises is remind you of anything

642
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,280
Speaker 5: you encountered when you were there in New England.

643
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:07,040
Speaker 3: Well, I think the thing that you mentioned was culture.

644
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 7: Right, there's a lot of guys who can coach the

645
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 7: exes in those right, they can. They know how to

646
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 7: run plays, they know how to do these things. But

647
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 7: there's not a lot of men who know how to

648
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 7: develop and build a culture.

649
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:21,680
Speaker 3: And there's not a lot of franchises who have a culture.

650
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:25,400
Speaker 7: Right if you think about teams like the Cleveland Browns, like,

651
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,720
Speaker 7: no matter who they bring in there, their.

652
00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:28,960
Speaker 3: Culture is a losing culture.

653
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 7: So to the philosophy of the entire house changes the

654
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 7: foundation in which that house sys song, then they could

655
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 7: never really be a winning franchises no matter how many

656
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 7: number one picks they bring in or how many individuals

657
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:42,200
Speaker 7: who are winner winners. As a franchise as a whole,

658
00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:45,240
Speaker 7: the philosophy is not a winning brand, right, it's not

659
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 7: winning company. And somewhat like England, just winning franchise has

660
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,200
Speaker 7: always been a winning franchises. And we could look across

661
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 7: the league and you could point out the teams that

662
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:57,440
Speaker 7: are winning franchises, who have been winners, who get it

663
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 7: at the foundational level, versus those who have flash moments

664
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 7: where they are good for a week or good for

665
00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:05,600
Speaker 7: a year, or have a little bit of time and

666
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 7: they went here and there. So I think Mike Rago

667
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 7: is a guy who played in that culture, so he

668
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 7: understands where that culture comes from. And you learn culture

669
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:16,840
Speaker 7: from participating in cultures. Right, like you go you travel

670
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 7: to another place in the world. It's one of my

671
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 7: favorite things to be immersed with the people eat the food,

672
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,120
Speaker 7: the way they eat the food, and you learn about

673
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:26,120
Speaker 7: that culture in a more dynamic way. And so raper

674
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 7: being able to play there or be with Bill Belichick

675
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,360
Speaker 7: to go out build his own culture, see what cultures

676
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 7: are like other places, and take those things from his

677
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 7: travels and colching and playing and be able to bring

678
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 7: all it back to the franchise in which he knows

679
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 7: the best is.

680
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 3: I think it makes perfect sense that he's winning.

681
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 7: He knows what they want, he knows what New England represents,

682
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 7: he knows what Boston wants to, he knows what the

683
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 7: city culture is like. You know, he knows what it

684
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,040
Speaker 7: means to be a patriot, and he already had his

685
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 7: own ideas of like, when I get my chance, this

686
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:55,800
Speaker 7: is my patriot way.

687
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 2: So this is why we have you.

688
00:32:59,200 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 1: Man.

689
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 2: You got plenty ideas.

690
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:02,760
Speaker 5: You see things outside the box, and obviously what you

691
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:06,840
Speaker 5: have created outside of the football world has been fascinating

692
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:09,240
Speaker 5: to see. Marty, thank you very much for hanging out

693
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:12,120
Speaker 5: with us and the insiders. Good luck on the launch

694
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 5: of Hate AJ and I cannot wait to see what

695
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 5: you have in store for us next.

696
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 3: Thank you, Burl. I appreciate you for having.

697
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:24,440
Speaker 1: Me playoff football this weekend, including in do al EverBank

698
00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:29,560
Speaker 1: Stadium one pm Eastern Time on Sunday. It is the Bills,

699
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:33,560
Speaker 1: it is the Jaguars. It is a matchup that is

700
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,680
Speaker 1: certainly worth watching. As we welcome in our Bucky Brooks

701
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 1: and Steve White's to the conversation with me, Tom Pelisero, Bucky.

702
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:43,440
Speaker 1: That Jaguars defense all season long, they've been taking the

703
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,960
Speaker 1: football away from people. Anthony Campanilli seems like he has

704
00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:48,840
Speaker 1: tapped into something with that group.

705
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:49,960
Speaker 3: You're around that team a lot.

706
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:51,960
Speaker 1: What do you see and how do you envision them

707
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:53,880
Speaker 1: attacking this Bills offense this week?

708
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,280
Speaker 12: Well, a numb one thing that a Jaguars want to

709
00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,120
Speaker 12: do to set them up to take the ball aways.

710
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:00,000
Speaker 13: You got to stop the run.

711
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 12: You have to stop the number one ranked rush offense

712
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,600
Speaker 12: in the Buffalo Bills or early downs so you can

713
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,520
Speaker 12: force Josh Allen to throw in long yarded situations. That's

714
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,839
Speaker 12: when Anthony Campanilli and this defense gets in their bag.

715
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 12: They'll switch to zones pre snap disguise some man, but

716
00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:17,799
Speaker 12: a lot of z own eyes on the quarterback and

717
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 12: tipson overthrows lead to interceptions. The Jaguars have twenty two interceptions,

718
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:26,760
Speaker 12: only behind the Chicago Bears second in takeaways. Is about

719
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,600
Speaker 12: stopping to run and making the Bills throw when everyone

720
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,920
Speaker 12: in the stadium knows they have to throw, Bucky.

721
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 10: That's exact recipe for Buffalo on offense as well as

722
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:40,120
Speaker 10: to counter that because the Buffalo Bills possess the ball

723
00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 10: more than any team in the NFL, to keep their

724
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 10: defense off the field by averaging more than thirty three

725
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,799
Speaker 10: minutes in time of possession a game. That means they're

726
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 10: getting ahead of the sticks, they're converting on third down,

727
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,360
Speaker 10: and they're doing it with that guy right there, James

728
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 10: Cook an awful lot and Josh Allen running the football.

729
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:02,000
Speaker 10: They do not have a significant amount of downfield threats.

730
00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:04,880
Speaker 10: So if they can stay ahead of the chains, go

731
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:08,439
Speaker 10: on these nine to ten place scoring drives, keep Jacksonville's

732
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 10: offense off the field and keep themselves out of position

733
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:15,480
Speaker 10: for possibly making plays turn the ball over. That's their

734
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:24,120
Speaker 10: secret offensively to beating the Jaguars.

735
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:29,759
Speaker 5: Michel f Florio, our good friend joined us once again

736
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,839
Speaker 5: in the Insiders. Fantasy season is over, So what are

737
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,720
Speaker 5: you doing here, FLORYA, Okay, fine, I'll answer my own question.

738
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,240
Speaker 5: Instead of talking about fantasy with our good buddy Michael Floya,

739
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 5: we're gonna use his skills of analysis and talk about reality.

740
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:45,280
Speaker 2: Here's what I want you to do, Florio.

741
00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:48,440
Speaker 5: I want you to start by going through these Saturday games.

742
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:51,040
Speaker 2: Okay, Rams, Panthers, Packers, Bears.

743
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,680
Speaker 5: Take me through a player to watch, kind of like

744
00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:55,760
Speaker 5: what you do in fantasy, but real.

745
00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:58,040
Speaker 2: Exactly the thinking there.

746
00:35:58,080 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 15: And look, I don't know if we're gonna get a

747
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 15: secret episode of Stranger Things tonight, but I do know

748
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,799
Speaker 15: that if Tetaro McMillan does not have a big game,

749
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 15: life is going to be tough for the Panthers on Saturday.

750
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 15: Because the Rams' biggest weakness is against out wide wide receivers.

751
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,319
Speaker 15: They're top four in yards allowed to those and that

752
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:18,360
Speaker 15: is where McMillan has ran eighty four percent of his

753
00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:21,440
Speaker 15: routes this season. They're also top four in yards on

754
00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:24,439
Speaker 15: deep passes to out wide wide receivers and nearly two

755
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,120
Speaker 15: thirds of those targets for the Panthers have gone to McMillan.

756
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 15: For the Rams, if they play their game, they should

757
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 15: be in a good spot. But for the Panthers, they

758
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 15: need McMillan to have a big day. And then in

759
00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 15: that second game, I think Christian Watson needs to step

760
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:39,920
Speaker 15: up because the Bears are top seven in yards to

761
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:44,239
Speaker 15: receivers on deep passes, out wide, wide receivers and receivers.

762
00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:44,240
Speaker 2: In the slot.

763
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,719
Speaker 15: Watson since he's returned has led the packers and targets,

764
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:49,440
Speaker 15: receiving yards and touchdowns.

765
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:51,200
Speaker 13: He is an excellent deep threat.

766
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,319
Speaker 15: Which helps him against in this matchup a lot, but

767
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:56,200
Speaker 15: he also has been splitting his time out wide and

768
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:57,000
Speaker 15: in the slot.

769
00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:58,360
Speaker 13: And when Green Bay beat.

770
00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:01,479
Speaker 15: Chicago this year, he turned four targets into nearly ninety

771
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:02,799
Speaker 15: yards and two touchdowns.

772
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:04,200
Speaker 13: But I think he needs to step up.

773
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 2: All right, good stuff on the Saturday games.

774
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 5: Kind I can't believe we get to watch foball if

775
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:11,680
Speaker 5: you're talking about coaching news for so many days in

776
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:15,040
Speaker 5: a row. Take me to Sunday. Give me a little

777
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:18,280
Speaker 5: bit of what to watch. We'll start with Bills Jags

778
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:18,720
Speaker 5: de open.

779
00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 15: Yeah, we know Josh Allen and James cook are the

780
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:24,480
Speaker 15: most important players for the Bills, but I think Brandon

781
00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 15: Cooks needs to step up this week for them to

782
00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:31,480
Speaker 15: have success because the Jags have allowed the fewest rushing yards.

783
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:31,600
Speaker 7: In the league.

784
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:33,320
Speaker 3: They rank well in all.

785
00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:36,240
Speaker 15: Per carry metrics and due to that, teams have thrown

786
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:40,040
Speaker 15: at the highest rate against the Jaguars. But the Jags

787
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,600
Speaker 15: have allowed the lowest pass rating on the passes to

788
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:46,479
Speaker 15: slot receivers, which is bad for Khalil Shakir. But where

789
00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:50,120
Speaker 15: they have struggled is out wide wide receivers and specifically

790
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:52,719
Speaker 15: on the deep ball to out wide wide receivers, and

791
00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:55,160
Speaker 15: Brandon Cooks since he has got to the Buffalo, has

792
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:57,960
Speaker 15: been their best deep ball receiver for the Jags. It's

793
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,680
Speaker 15: just run the ball, right, Travis etn and I think

794
00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:03,319
Speaker 15: the very explosive base shell two in could be a

795
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:06,120
Speaker 15: factor there. And then in forty nine Ers Eagles, This

796
00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 15: one might sound obvious, but.

797
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 2: It's Christian McCaffrey right.

798
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:11,520
Speaker 15: He is an MVP candidate and he is the most

799
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 15: vital player for the Niners each week. But it's magnetized

800
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,920
Speaker 15: this week because the Eagles have allowed the fewest passing

801
00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 15: touchdowns in the NFL, the fewest touchdowns to wide receivers,

802
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:23,920
Speaker 15: second fewest yards to tight ends. They're just an extremely

803
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 15: tough defense, but their weakness is against pass catching running backs.

804
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:31,120
Speaker 15: They are top seven in receiving yards and touchdowns to

805
00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:33,480
Speaker 15: running backs, middle of the pack in rushing yards. So

806
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,880
Speaker 15: to pull off the upset, I think CMC needs a

807
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:40,160
Speaker 15: legacy game and then Sunday Night Chargers Patriots.

808
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 13: I think a player I talked about.

809
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:44,880
Speaker 15: A lot for fantasy, Tremion Henderson needs to step up

810
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:48,040
Speaker 15: in this one because that Chargers secondary is elite. Their

811
00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 15: bottom four passing yards allowed. They've shut down receivers and

812
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,600
Speaker 15: tight ends, but their weakness has been against the run,

813
00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:58,640
Speaker 15: especially speedy, explosive runners. So the time is now for

814
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:01,440
Speaker 15: the Patriots to set free and let him have a

815
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:04,080
Speaker 15: big game. And on the Charger side of things, their

816
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:06,400
Speaker 15: all line needs to step up because the Pats are top.

817
00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 2: Ten in pressure.

818
00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:10,879
Speaker 5: I love you talking about the Bills and how great

819
00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 5: that are. You got a Bill's helmet in your background.

820
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:15,840
Speaker 5: There's that nice red one by the way, old school,

821
00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:19,799
Speaker 5: old school respect. I also knew we couldn't get through

822
00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:23,400
Speaker 5: this segment without you talking about your guy, Trayvon Henderson.

823
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:24,240
Speaker 2: Talk about respect.

824
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:26,880
Speaker 5: You have been leading the charts end up probably winning

825
00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:29,520
Speaker 5: some people some fantasy championships. Alright, we got one more

826
00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 5: Monday Night football Texan Steelers.

827
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:34,800
Speaker 2: What we got, Florio, I think it's.

828
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,240
Speaker 13: Kenneth Gainwell, right, because the Texans.

829
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 15: They get after the quarterback at a high rate.

830
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:39,560
Speaker 2: They're tough to run on.

831
00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:42,920
Speaker 15: They're tough against receivers and tight ends, but they struggle

832
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:46,480
Speaker 15: with yak against running backs, and Gainwell has been used

833
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:48,600
Speaker 15: as an extension of the run game and has become

834
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:51,839
Speaker 15: a legit receiving weapon there. For the Texans side of things,

835
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 15: I think it's Nico Collins and Dalton Schultz that need

836
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:55,720
Speaker 15: to step up in this matchup.

837
00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,400
Speaker 5: See not talking about fantasy, talking about reality and you

838
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:02,400
Speaker 5: crushed to this always for you crazy stuff. Enjoy the

839
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,320
Speaker 5: games this weekend. We'll talk to you more, of course

840
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:11,759
Speaker 5: coming up soon. That guy I remember Superman was one name,

841
00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:13,160
Speaker 5: Cam Newton was another.

842
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:15,640
Speaker 2: Why are we talking about Cam? We'll get into it.

843
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:28,880
Speaker 3: I'm back, But in this sense, we beat.

844
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:43,280
Speaker 1: Panthers rams first home playoff game in a long time

845
00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:48,240
Speaker 1: for Carolina. It is on Saturday afternoon, four thirty pm

846
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 1: Eastern time on Fox. Skiing had to translate that post

847
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:52,919
Speaker 1: Cam Newton sounded the drug.

848
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:54,399
Speaker 2: That's what ultimately means.

849
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 3: We got Dalton Schultz on the show tomorrow. Ernest Jones,

850
00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:57,640
