1 00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:09,879 Speaker 1: This is straight Fire with Jason McIntyre. 2 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:15,040 Speaker 2: What is up straight Fire, fam, It's me Jason McIntyre. 3 00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:21,439 Speaker 2: Straight Fire. For Monday, January twentieth, we had ourselves a 4 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:25,759 Speaker 2: football weekend and it was pretty good on Sunday Saturday. 5 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 2: Not spectacular football, exciting in Detroit, boring in Kansas City, 6 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 2: and oh, I can't wait to talk about the Chiefs 7 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 2: and these new NFL rules that seem to favor Kansas City. 8 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:39,640 Speaker 2: I cannot wait to get to that. We're probably gonna 9 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:42,240 Speaker 2: hammer it all week Chiefs fans ear Muffett, You're not 10 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:44,400 Speaker 2: gonna like it. I know y'all hate me online. Anyway, 11 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 2: I see the venom. We'll get to that my weekend. Listen, man, 12 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 2: Once you guys get to my advanced age and you 13 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,319 Speaker 2: got your kids playing sports, you know, if you get 14 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 2: into coaching and they start playing club sports and travel, 15 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 2: it's busy. I was, you know, during the NFL season, 16 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 2: I tell the wife and the fall, Hey, Sundays, I'm 17 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,560 Speaker 2: on the couch. There's fifteen games happening, and they kind of, 18 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:08,959 Speaker 2: you know, they get it. I don't do much on 19 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 2: Sundays during the season, but during the playoffs in January now, 20 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 2: we got basketball season. The volleyball ramps up. If your 21 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 2: kids play volleyball. So I am at a volleyball tournament 22 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 2: watching the game on my phone. I should have taken 23 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 2: a picture of this. Somebody brought like maybe a twelve 24 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 2: x twelve television, flugged it in and had the game 25 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 2: on like an actual TV. I'm sitting here like you 26 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,759 Speaker 2: guys carry that from the car. That's incredible. So I'm 27 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,039 Speaker 2: able to watch the games, and you know, Sunday I 28 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 2: was able to be at home a little bit more. 29 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 2: Although the Great Foxes had a heated, oh my gosh, 30 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 2: super heated game. We were down some dudes. We're playing 31 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 2: the defending champs. I personally have never lost to them. 32 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 2: They got some new guys and it was a heated game. 33 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 2: Your boy did not have a good showing. But I 34 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 2: had a very clutch, one really clutch play. But pull 35 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 2: out the seventy two sixty eight game. Oh, they were 36 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 2: so pissed. Refs were getting me ear fall. Oh it's 37 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 2: so fun. And now that happened during the Ravens Bills game. 38 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 2: So I missed like the first quarter, and I missed 39 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 2: all the Lamar Jackson fireworks. This story this weekend in 40 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 2: the NFL. You know, I'm not going to sit here 41 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:14,679 Speaker 2: and pick on Lamar. Don't worry. I know people you 42 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:16,639 Speaker 2: always beat up on Lamar he lose his playoff, Yeah, 43 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,639 Speaker 2: I do. When he's terrible. He was not awful. He 44 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,359 Speaker 2: was not Jared Goff awful. Jared Goff three turnovers in 45 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 2: the red zone. That's terrible. But we don't kill Jared 46 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 2: Goff because we don't think he's a superstar. Right. He's 47 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,079 Speaker 2: a very good quarterback, probably top twelve quarterback in the 48 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 2: league is number. Say he's hired in that. But you 49 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 2: know Jared Go's not going to get destroyed for an 50 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 2: abysmal game. Lamar Jackson probably is. However, he let them 51 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:45,639 Speaker 2: back down the field and set them up for the 52 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 2: tie perfect pass in Mark Andrews. Oh, Mark Andrews felt bad. 53 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 2: I did see that he did not meet with the 54 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 2: media after the game, and I get that, dude. He 55 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 2: was probably inconsolable. We're talking about a veteran tight end, 56 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 2: probably a top ten tight end in the history football. 57 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 2: I mean, his numbers are great, maybe top ten to 58 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 2: two routs, maybe top fifteen. But Mark Andrews has had 59 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 2: an amazing career, and he had a brutal fourth quarter. 60 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 2: He had the fumble, the great poke out by Bernard, 61 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 2: and then he drops the two point conversion. You know, 62 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,639 Speaker 2: and I don't know what you tell him. Guys, when 63 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 2: I lose a men's basketball league championship and I'm not 64 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,799 Speaker 2: like even missing the game winning shot or whatever, I've 65 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,359 Speaker 2: been consolable for four weeks. I don't want to talk 66 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 2: about it or a basketball. This guy literally dropped the 67 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 2: two point conversion that would have tied the game. Now, listen, 68 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna you can't rush Andrews. You can if 69 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 2: you want out there, I'm not going to. Because there 70 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 2: was still a minute and thirty three maybe left, and 71 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 2: Josh Allen at home. I think he had one or 72 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 2: two timeouts. They would have been fine. Okay, they would 73 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 2: have been a Josh Allen would have led them down 74 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 2: the field. I don't have any doubt. But that game 75 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 2: kind of typified the weekend. You had a brutal drop. 76 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 2: You had three Ravens turnovers led to ten Bills points 77 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 2: in the Rams Eagles game. Two turnovers, both by the Rams, 78 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 2: led to six the Eagles. Eagles ineptitude in the red 79 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 2: zone is definitely concerning. And then you go look at 80 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 2: the Lions when you turn the bowl over five times, 81 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 2: Come on, you know, whinning that game. We're leaving the 82 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 2: Chiefs out of this because you know, the refs got 83 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 2: involved in anyways. So I don't know, I can't come 84 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 2: out here and destroy Lamar Jackson. I do think it's 85 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 2: a little hypocritical that people are more than willing to 86 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 2: pile on Jared Goff. But you got to break out 87 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 2: the kid gloves to handle Lamar Jackson. He just didn't 88 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 2: win the game. I didn't think he lost it. Obviously, 89 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 2: the pick and the fumble dug them a hole. But guys, 90 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 2: let's be real. You know, it was a good weekend 91 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 2: in gambling. Not great because the Bills didn't come through. Sorry, 92 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 2: the Lions didn't come through. But if you want to 93 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 2: drill down for a sec, and I don't think people 94 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 2: are talking about this, Josh Allen sixteen or twenty two, 95 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,720 Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty seven yards passing that that's it. 96 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 2: You want a game when your quarterbacks who won one 97 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 2: hundred twenty seven yards through the year, The Ravens kind 98 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 2: of beat themselves three turnovers, multiple drops. Then you go 99 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 2: to the Eagles game also Sunday, Jalen Hurts fifteen of 100 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 2: twenty a buck twenty eight. But what wacky weekend? So 101 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:11,599 Speaker 2: this I thought, my overarching number one thing that I 102 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 2: pulled out of this weekend was look at the four 103 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 2: quarterbacks remaining. We got Jaden Daniels versus Jalen Hurts. Both 104 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 2: those guys are extremely mobile. Jalen Hurts had an incredible 105 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 2: touchdown run. I think it was like forty four yards. 106 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 2: Jaden Daniels needs no introduction. That guy's just a freaking superstar. 107 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 2: I mean, he is so fast. He was credited only 108 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,559 Speaker 2: with fifty one yards wresting, but it felt like half 109 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 2: of those were super duper clutch. And he's a cheap 110 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 2: code on fourth down Washington three for four and fourth down. 111 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 2: And then in the other game he got Josh Allen 112 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 2: extremely mobile and Patrick Mahomes who is I'll go nimble, Folks. 113 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 2: You need a mobile quarterback in today's NFL. You have 114 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 2: to if you want to win at the highest level. 115 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,719 Speaker 2: You just have to because the defensive ends and the 116 00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:01,159 Speaker 2: exotic blitzes are getting so intense in the NFL. Jared 117 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,840 Speaker 2: Verse was a really good college football player at Florida State. 118 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 2: He already looks like he's knocking on the door of 119 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 2: the TJ Watt Miles, Garrett Class. I mean, Verse was 120 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:17,279 Speaker 2: a monster and just wrecked multiple plays by Jalen Urtz, 121 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 2: took aim out a field goal range. He's everywhere. So 122 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 2: I don't know, Rob, that's my overarching takeaway. Sorry, you 123 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 2: need a mobile quarterback in this league. And we're gonna 124 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 2: see probably four of the best eight quarterbacks here on 125 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 2: conference championship weekend next Sunday. 126 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I would agree with you. 127 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,720 Speaker 4: And that's not a shot at guys like you know, 128 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 4: Garrett Goff, I know what a terrible game on Saturday. 129 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 4: And Joe Burrow, who for my money, is like right there, 130 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 4: top three four quarterback in the gas still nimble, right, 131 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 4: but by and large, if you go through the top ten, 132 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 4: wherever your guys are at a minimum, they can scramble 133 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 4: around a little bit. Like Patrick Mahomes is obviously not 134 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 4: as well. Let's take it back. If you're gonna say 135 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 4: mobile quarterback, you we have to different Like there's Lamar 136 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 4: Jackson and there's like a big gap and then that's 137 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 4: where you kind of start the rest of the guys. 138 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 4: Like if you're going to say Patrick Mahomes and Lamar 139 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 4: Jackson both qualifies mobile quarterbacks, then that's a totally different 140 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 4: conversation because one is like a Maserati Bugatti and one's 141 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 4: like a Honda Civic. 142 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 3: If you're not compared to Lamar Jackson. 143 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 2: Okay, I would put him more. Why don't we call 144 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 2: Lamara Tesla because his explosiveness. 145 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 3: Okay, you got a Tesla? 146 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 2: Now you know I will not support anyways. I would 147 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 2: go Mahomes is more of a He's not He's not. 148 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 3: A Corvette Bard focus. 149 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 2: We're going to kill the team freaking focus. 150 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 4: But to your bigger point, I agree with you, like 151 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 4: I think that in today's NFL, especially with the way 152 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 4: defenses play now where they take away the deep ball 153 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 4: for the most part you brought it up what a 154 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 4: year and a half ago, teams are warning that too 155 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 4: high shell a lot. Philadelphia famously Fangio almost every defensive 156 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 4: set they start with shows two high safety. 157 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 3: They don't always play that way, but they run that 158 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 3: a lot. 159 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 4: And so when they're encouraging you to kind of matriculate 160 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 4: the ball down the field and be patient, and you're 161 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 4: not gonna get the shot, Blazer used to get. 162 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 3: Three four or five years ago. 163 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 4: What you need is to have a quarterback who can 164 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 4: extend plays, who can buy that extra second or two 165 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 4: that's gonna allow not every play, but three or four 166 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 4: times a game, someone's gonna sneak out beyond the coverage 167 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 4: and that's your chance to strike and make a big 168 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 4: play happen. We saw that happen a lot on Sunday night. 169 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:40,200 Speaker 4: We saw that happen a ton on the Lions Commanders game. 170 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 4: And I think that you're onto a good path on 171 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 4: that one. 172 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 2: I took a little bad. Oh sorry, go ahead, go ahead, 173 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 2: go ahead ahead, No, go ahead. I feel bad. We're now 174 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 2: like ten minutes into the podcast and I haven't mentioned 175 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley's heroics. I mean, this guy is just incredible. 176 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 2: Sequon Barkley, Like, if you're a New York Giants fan, 177 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 2: if you're in the office, you are just kicking yourself. 178 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 2: How do we let this guy go? And I know 179 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 2: he probably would not be amazing with the Giants because 180 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 2: their offensive line stinks, they have no quarterback. But twenty 181 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 2: six for two to h five average seven point nine 182 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 2: yards of pop. He went the four catches for twenty 183 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 2: seven yards like he is such a weapon. I mean, 184 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 2: the guy he killed the Rams this year, just destroyed 185 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 2: them in both games. And they're probably gonna need him 186 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 2: against Washington here because we don't know what's up with 187 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 2: Jalen hurts Man. He is getting dinged up. I saw 188 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 2: if you uh subtract the sack yards. He was sacked 189 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 2: hurts by the way, sack seven times. The Eagles had 190 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 2: sixty five net yards passing. That's the fewest by any 191 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 2: team in a playoff game in the last ten years. 192 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 2: Sixty five net yards and they won and covered the spread. Oh, 193 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 2: I guess it depends on the line. Six might have 194 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,439 Speaker 2: been a push for some, but it was five five 195 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,559 Speaker 2: and a half. Hopefully he didn't get six and a 196 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 2: half late. But it's weird, Rob. This turned into a 197 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 2: passing league, and I think this season that it just flipped. 198 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,559 Speaker 2: You know, the six, the six teams with the most 199 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 2: rushing yards the season all made the playoffs. That's the 200 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 2: first time that's happened, I think in forever. It's a 201 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 2: rushing league. You've got to have a run game. The 202 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills. If it wasn't Ty Johnson, it was James Cook. 203 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 2: If it or it was Ray Davis, or it was 204 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 2: Josh Allen, Like you must have a run game. Washington 205 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 2: didn't have much of one, but they got Jayden Daniels 206 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,079 Speaker 2: and the Lions defense thing. So listen, we could go 207 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 2: on and on. But home team so far in the 208 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 2: playoffs eight and two. Okay, both of the two losses 209 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 2: came at the hands of Washington, who went to Tampa 210 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 2: and one and went to Detroit one. Can they pull 211 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 2: it off again? 212 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 3: I do. 213 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 2: That's a tall order, but there was money coming in 214 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 2: on Washington as soon as the line came out. I 215 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 2: think it's probably another good teaser weekend. We shall see, 216 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 2: But I don't know, Rob, do we need to give 217 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,439 Speaker 2: any more praise or accolades before we file on the 218 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:01,599 Speaker 2: Kansas City Chiefs. 219 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,319 Speaker 4: Let me just say shout out to Josh Allen, you know, 220 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 4: because I know a lot of the conversation here Sunday 221 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 4: and to Monday is gonna be on the Baltimore Ravens. 222 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:12,959 Speaker 3: You know, Mark Andrews. 223 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 4: That quite possibly the worst night marriage fourth quarter any 224 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 4: professional athlete can have in my lifetime, Like to have 225 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 4: the fumble and then to drop the du Wayne conversion. 226 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 4: Like I know that this is gonna be an absolutely 227 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,199 Speaker 4: brutal day. If you know, Mark Andrews sent him a call, 228 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 4: cinema text, make sure he's okay, because that's just that's 229 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 4: got a way I knew mentally and emotionally, you're gonna 230 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 4: also have People were gonna blame Lamar Jackson because of 231 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 4: the two turnovers, and even Lamar Jackson himself was you know, 232 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 4: he took it upon himself a lot stronger than I 233 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,839 Speaker 4: thought people were nationally in the media, because in the 234 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 4: media it's always like we pick and choose which guys 235 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 4: we like and which guys we don't. And Lamar Jackson, 236 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 4: especially in the last year, has almost become a guy 237 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 4: where you cannot criticize him, like because his numbers that 238 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 4: are so awesome. He's gonna be a three time MVP, 239 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:06,320 Speaker 4: three time First Team All Pro, like, he's gonna have 240 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 4: all the accolades at this point save the playoff success. 241 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 4: And because he marched them back down the field and 242 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 4: he was in position to tie the game theyre a 243 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 4: mid and half left, Everyone's like, well, you can't blame Lamar. 244 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 4: He can't blame Lamar, And to his credit, Lamar Jackson 245 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 4: went up on the podium last night after the game 246 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 4: and said, look, we're a team. It's not just Mark Andrews. 247 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 4: In the first half, I had two terrible turnovers and 248 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 4: he was very specific. 249 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 3: I knew what their coverage was. 250 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 4: I didn't look the safe off and I threw a 251 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:38,079 Speaker 4: terrible pick next one on the fumble at an RPO, 252 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 4: I tried to do too much with it in the elements. 253 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 3: That was a terrible idea. Squeezed it fumble. It is 254 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 3: what it is. 255 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 4: When I have turnovers like that, that's why we lose 256 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 4: the game. And he ends up cursing and that became 257 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 4: a viral moment there for a minute. But while everyone's 258 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 4: focusing on the Ravens and I understand that part, can 259 00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 4: we just take a second to acknowledge that Josh Allen 260 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 4: is one of the greatest postseason performers we have ever seen. 261 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 4: I know the numbers, like the one loss record doesn't 262 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 4: necessarily show that because I think he's went now seven 263 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,079 Speaker 4: and five and you're like, well, seven and five, that's 264 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 4: not that great. Josh Allen now has thirty touchdowns against 265 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 4: four turnovers in his playoff career. 266 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:22,199 Speaker 2: Wow. 267 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 4: Last night's game against Baltimore, where he went for what 268 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 4: was like a buck forty seven total. Was probably his 269 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,439 Speaker 4: worst postseason game and like three seasons. 270 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 2: But wait, wait, wait, hold on, hold on, it was 271 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 2: worse only by the numbers. It's not like he was 272 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 2: I didn't think he was bad, did you? No? 273 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 3: No, no, But that's what I'm saying. 274 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 4: It's like, that's that's where he is, Like, he's it's 275 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 4: hard to find a great NBA compared to a lot 276 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 4: of our listeners NBA fans. But it's kind of similar 277 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 4: to Jimmy Butler, where Jimmy Butler's never gonna win MVP. 278 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 4: With that case, Josh Allen might, but he hasn't won 279 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,960 Speaker 4: an MVP, He's never been an All Pro. He doesn't 280 00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 4: have the skins on the wall that Patrick Homes and 281 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 4: Lamar Jackson have. 282 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 3: Those are two main contemporaries. 283 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 4: But what he does have going for him is that 284 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 4: when he gets to the playoffs, he takes it up 285 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 4: to a level that nobody else can reach this side 286 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 4: of Patrick Mahomes, Like you just mentioned, Jalen Hurts. Jalen 287 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 4: Hurts in four playoff game, four playoff wins, I think 288 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 4: averages one hundred and forty five passing yards a game 289 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 4: like it's junior varsity. Compared to what Josh Allen is doing, 290 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 4: Josh Allen has kind of reached this point, a point 291 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 4: that I didn't think he was ever gonna get to, 292 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 4: to be quite honest with you, where he's merged the 293 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 4: yolo Josh Allen with the conservative Josh Allen. And he 294 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 4: does makes just enough plays here and there. He saw 295 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 4: it last night. You know, he gets a key seven 296 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 4: yard run where he just throws his body through four 297 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 4: guys to move the chains and he gets the touchdown 298 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 4: a couple of plays after that. And he can do that. 299 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 4: But what he can also do is, hey, we cannot 300 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 4: stop Baltimore unless they fumble or turn the ball over. 301 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 4: We have not slowed these guys down at all. It's 302 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 4: just self inflicted wounds. So we got to keep them 303 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 4: off the field. Josh, we need you to throw three 304 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 4: yard passes all game and don't get greedy, don't push 305 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 4: the ball down the field. This is how we have 306 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 4: to play to win. And he can do exactly that. 307 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 4: He's graduated in this quarterback game and it's great to see. 308 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 4: I just hope selfishly that when we see mahomes Allen, 309 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 4: what it's the fourth time now in the playoffs that 310 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 4: we get more of the vintage mahomes Allen, not what 311 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 4: they've become now where they're both almost conservative out. 312 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 3: I want to see the fireworks. 313 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 314 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 1: the nation.

Obviously, the Bills 318 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 2: won the earlier meeting. Let me see here, thirty to 319 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 2: twenty one at home. It was a it was a 320 00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 2: good game. It was Josh Allen kind of took over 321 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 2: with his legs, and I think this is something. This 322 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 2: is like a jumping off point. Josh Allen in the 323 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 2: first meeting against the Chiefs twelve carries fifty five yards, 324 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 2: obviously the huge high leverage play where he raced in 325 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 2: for the touchdown. If you watch CJ. Stroud this weekend, 326 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 2: he was able to scramble six carries forty two yards. 327 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 2: I haven't done all the homework again, the game's just finished, 328 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 2: but I'm very curious how the Chiefs do against running 329 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 2: quarterbacks because this feels to me like this is one 330 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 2: of these games where Josh Allen's probably gonna have closer 331 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 2: to fifteen carries. I'm very excited for this obviously. You 332 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 2: guys know I've become like public enemy number one for 333 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 2: Chiefs fans because of some comments I've made on the herd. 334 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 2: These Chiefs fans put together these long, like four minute 335 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 2: videos nobody believed in us, and then they'll clip off 336 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 2: like me bashing them in some way, shape or form. 337 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 2: It's like, Okay, nobody believed in you guys. You were 338 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 2: going for back to back Super Bowls. They had nobody believed. 339 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 2: I'm just we need new blood. 340 00:16:58,120 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 3: Now. 341 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark's hanging out with Taylor Swift Chiefs games, and 342 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:05,919 Speaker 2: now I think this is a reasonable segue rob to 343 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 2: get into this situation. Shall we say that unfolded in 344 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 2: not a good way for the league on Saturday, and 345 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 2: any way you slice it, this was a terrible look 346 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:21,400 Speaker 2: for the NFL. Everybody and their mom watching this Island 347 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:25,239 Speaker 2: game Texans at Chiefs could see what was going on. 348 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 2: The referees continue to somehow operate well as if there 349 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 2: are different rules for the Kansas City Chiefs. The Texans 350 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,160 Speaker 2: were losing their minds kind of understandably when you' watching 351 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 2: this stuff go down. Texans had eight penalties for eighty 352 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 2: two yards, and you know, at one point in the game, 353 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 2: Troy Aikman, one of the best announcers in football, basically 354 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 2: lost his mind on what was happening with the refs 355 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:58,360 Speaker 2: and the flags, and he essentially went viral on Saturday 356 00:17:58,440 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 2: for some of the comments he was making about the 357 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 2: Chiefs and Mahomes lobbying for flags. And I don't know, 358 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,439 Speaker 2: Rob listen man, this We've talked about this, the NBA, 359 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,160 Speaker 2: the league partners say whatever the hell they want. Barkley, Shack, 360 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 2: Steve and a always just rip. The NBA doesn't, nobody cares. 361 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 2: Roger Goodell will not stand for that stuff. He won't. 362 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:20,879 Speaker 2: It's a bad look. You don't want them ripping your league. 363 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 2: Here's the problem when it's so damn egregious and everybody 364 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 2: watching the game with two eyes is like, what kind 365 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 2: of call is that? What's going on here? I do 366 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 2: believe the NFL is gonna have to have some internal 367 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 2: discussion and review, like, hey, guys, do we get this right? 368 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 2: Is this possible? Have the Chiefs really played in And 369 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 2: I'm not I'm going big picture here like four Super 370 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:46,920 Speaker 2: Bowls and they have like one holding call, like how 371 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 2: is this happening? And it does kind of sort of 372 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,679 Speaker 2: feel like they play by a different set of rules, 373 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 2: and the referees, I do believe, are gonna have to 374 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,440 Speaker 2: either let everything slide this coming weekend or they're gonna 375 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 2: have to call every and it's gonna be an ugly game, 376 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 2: and you never want the refs to step in in 377 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 2: a big, big, high profile game. It's gonna be thirty 378 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 2: thirty five million people watching. But I'm just telling you 379 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 2: when Akeman and Buck are kind of sort of blasting 380 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,919 Speaker 2: the refs and the calls and how the chiefs are 381 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:19,199 Speaker 2: getting everything. And again, if you go online during and 382 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 2: I know TikTok was briefly shut down this weekend and 383 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:25,399 Speaker 2: so everybody had to go to some other social media outlet, 384 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:30,679 Speaker 2: and anywhere you went Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, there's memes going 385 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 2: around about Patrick mahomes on bended knee with a ring 386 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,200 Speaker 2: and then you see like a female referee, and then 387 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 2: there's another one where like Andy Reid is talking to 388 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 2: the refs and you people are making jokes about it, 389 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 2: and it's just like, I don't rob I'm not sitting 390 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:50,119 Speaker 2: out here being conspiracy theory guy. But you know, I 391 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 2: think it's okay to question, like, come on, something's got 392 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 2: to be up. How does this keep happening? 393 00:19:57,040 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 4: Oh, you are speaking to the choir, my guy, I 394 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:04,199 Speaker 4: mean Troy Aikman the exact phrase. And this was my 395 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,880 Speaker 4: favorite one after the It was the second agree, because 396 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,360 Speaker 4: there was two agreed, just roughing the pastors penalties. 397 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:11,200 Speaker 3: One of them where Mahomes. 398 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 4: Kind of scrambled around, looked like he was gonna run, 399 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 4: realize it's gonna get any yards, so he tries to 400 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 4: slide down. Then he gets oh yeah, and Aikman the 401 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 4: exact phrasing was, oh, come on, he's not even a runner. 402 00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 4: I could not disagree with that one more. He barely 403 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:25,919 Speaker 4: gets hit. Now, as far as to your point, as 404 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 4: far as NFL analyst critiques of officiating, like that is 405 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,479 Speaker 4: the worst you are absolutely gonna get, Like that is 406 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,200 Speaker 4: this side of him cussing out the rep Like that's 407 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 4: about as far as they go when it comes to 408 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:40,360 Speaker 4: the NFL broadcasting partners. 409 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 3: And this Patrick Mahomes soft with the Mahomes rules. 410 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 4: As people are calling it on social media, they've gone 411 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:54,400 Speaker 4: too far. And I promise you NFL and I would 412 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 4: tag the NFL at the NFL rest they were listening 413 00:20:56,280 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 4: to this podcast. Patrick Mahomes is plenty good enough that 414 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 4: he does not need assistance from the refs to win games. 415 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:12,400 Speaker 4: There is nothing more frustrating as a sports fan then 416 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 4: to see one team, or in this case, one player, 417 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 4: gets so many benefit of the doubt calls that nobody 418 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:24,959 Speaker 4: else in the league gets. Jared Goff got decapitated on 419 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 4: an interception pick six, had to go into concussion protocol. 420 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 4: By rule, that is an illegal play, that is a 421 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:34,399 Speaker 4: personal foul. Nobody was throwing a flag on that. They 422 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 4: was like, hey, that's what happens in football. Man Lamar 423 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 4: Jackson on Sunday Night, going out of bounds Number one 424 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 4: gets hip drop tackle once in the first quarter, they 425 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 4: don't call it. Later on in the third quarter, he's 426 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 4: a clear foot out of bounds. The defender still takes 427 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 4: him to the ground, and Tony Romo, to his credit, says, hey, 428 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 4: that was out of bound. That was a miscall. If 429 00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 4: either one of those plays are Patrick Mahomes, I guarantee 430 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 4: you the flags being called. 431 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, I guarantee you that. In all, like a guy 432 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 3: might get thrown out of the game. 433 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 4: Like as good as Patrick Mahomes is, let's be honest 434 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 4: about it, he has benefited not just in the regular season, 435 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 4: not just in this game that we saw on Sunday 436 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,880 Speaker 4: or you me on Saturday. Throughout his postseason career has 437 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 4: benefited from calls like this. Uh the win against the 438 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,879 Speaker 4: Cincinnati Bengals, Oh gosh, they getting they get in the 439 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,199 Speaker 4: field goal rage because of a very ticky tacked, you know, 440 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,679 Speaker 4: personal foul going out of bounce. The Super Bowl win 441 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:42,360 Speaker 4: against the Eagles was a pass interference call that they 442 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 4: had not called all game. 443 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 3: But it's Patrick Mahomes, it's the face of the league. 444 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 4: Whatever we can do to kind of you know, getting 445 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 4: a little extra boost like that, that's a problem in 446 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:54,400 Speaker 4: the NFL. 447 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 3: So they got to get that straighted out. Apple with you. 448 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:58,880 Speaker 4: I think next week when these two teams pay each 449 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 4: other Buffalo Kansas City, you're gonna find out very quickly. 450 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 4: Either they're gonna call it TICKI tack where everything gets 451 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 4: called and it's a ref show, or they're gonna let 452 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 4: these teams play. Josh Allen's gonna have to truck some 453 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 4: guy with the crown of his helmet you know, Patrick 454 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 4: Mahomes got to do that little half jog half trot 455 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 4: thing that he does. But you are gonna see either 456 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:23,879 Speaker 4: some of the most physical football we've seen all season 457 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 4: or some of the most flag football we've seen. 458 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 2: Also, yeah, no, I totally agree. So here's the thing. 459 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 2: And again, if any of you out there actually play 460 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 2: sports often or have played sports in the past, you 461 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,159 Speaker 2: know that there is an ongoing discussion with refs, and 462 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,159 Speaker 2: you can get a vibe, Oh, they're gonna let us play. Oh, 463 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 2: they're letting everybody fly, or they're calling tiki tak stuff. 464 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 3: Right. 465 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 2: So, my son's at a volleyball tournament Saturday and they're 466 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 2: playing this team and I don't know if you guys 467 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 2: have played volleyball, but the setter, you know, passes the 468 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 2: ball up to the outside guys who are hammering away 469 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 2: and what indoor, they can sometimes call lifts where you're 470 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,400 Speaker 2: catching it as opposed to just setting it. Okay, And 471 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,160 Speaker 2: in the first two sets we got called for one 472 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,880 Speaker 2: lift and in the third set. The third in deciding set, 473 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 2: we got called for seven lifts by the referee. Our 474 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 2: coach lost it. The parents on the sideliner are like, 475 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 2: what the hell. I told like the tech like the 476 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 2: text chain of my son's volleyball team, Hey guys, if 477 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 2: I get thrown out of here, somebody give my son 478 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 2: a ride home. I've never been thrown out of a 479 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 2: sporting event ever ever, but I was like, this is this, 480 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 2: can't do this. So we end up losing fifteen sixteen 481 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 2: fourteen or whatever it was. It was total bologny. And 482 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,160 Speaker 2: they called a lift on the game winning point where 483 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 2: our guy was up, you know, our six to one 484 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 2: guy was rising up to hammer away and they're like 485 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 2: the lift. It was like, come on. So anyways, he 486 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 2: claims the referee in the volleyball match that he went 487 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 2: to our team after the first two sets and said, hey, 488 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 2: you guys have had some lifts. I'm not calling them, 489 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,360 Speaker 2: but I'm gonna start calling them now. And I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, 490 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 2: wait what now. I didn't hear about this until afterward. 491 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,400 Speaker 2: I talked to the coach on the other team and 492 00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:57,640 Speaker 2: I was like, I can't believe he called five lifts 493 00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,359 Speaker 2: in the third set and he goes, no, no, it was 494 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 2: seven lifts. I've never seen that. I was doing the scorebook. 495 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 2: That's a coach on the other team, and I'm like, 496 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 2: oh my gosh, this would be the equivalent of these 497 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,719 Speaker 2: NFL coaches letting everything go for three quarters and then 498 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 2: all of a sudden calling ticky tackle ore in the fourth. 499 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 2: You can't do that. You have to get control of 500 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 2: this game from the jump. And Rob I just went 501 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,919 Speaker 2: up and looked the acheman thing on the sideline, and 502 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,120 Speaker 2: what really pissed off Aklan was and Mahomes does this often. Right, 503 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,400 Speaker 2: You're racing toward the sideline and then you ease up 504 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 2: right before the sideline and trying to draw a flag, 505 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,119 Speaker 2: you know, like a flop in the NBA. And Mahome 506 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 2: gets pushed and he's like, oh, he's flopping like he's 507 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 2: trying to win an Oscar Award. Now, they didn't throw 508 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:36,159 Speaker 2: a flag there, but Aikman is just like, are you 509 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:40,120 Speaker 2: kidding me? Really? And then the worst one that really 510 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 2: was a big one was when, like you said, the 511 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 2: two defenders kind of collide above Mahomes their helmets hit 512 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:51,439 Speaker 2: each other. They don't hit Mahomes's helmet, and Troy Aikman 513 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 2: was said on air, they got to address it in 514 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:55,880 Speaker 2: the off season, And I can tell you this right now. 515 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 2: I don't think, you know, Goodell and company are gonna 516 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 2: be happy with that when you watch a replayer like man, 517 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 2: they didn't freaking hit Mahomes, they hit each other, and 518 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 2: it's like, we can't keep doing this. It's just it 519 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 2: doesn't work. It's not good, it's not healthy for the league. 520 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,199 Speaker 2: And yes, I am anti Chiefs. I did have the 521 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:16,119 Speaker 2: Chiefs to win that game. They covered the spread for me. 522 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 2: Dott act like I lost to Bed. I did not. 523 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 2: But with the way that this game, you know, Rob, 524 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,400 Speaker 2: We've talked about this the nfl A Sundays where there's 525 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,440 Speaker 2: you know, eight games going on the one pm win No, 526 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 2: that's amazing. You're probably gonna get four duds and then 527 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 2: you're gonna get some awesome games. Okay, and it doesn't 528 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 2: matter because you got a couple good games going on 529 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 2: at the same time that were thrilling. Okay. The problem 530 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 2: with these Island games is there's not a ton of action. 531 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,399 Speaker 2: I mean maybe Lion's Washington action, but you get a 532 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 2: chance to see slow motion replaced and everybody. Again, twenty 533 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:54,159 Speaker 2: thirty million people are watching these games. Everybody is breaking 534 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 2: down every single play, and the refs are kind of 535 00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 2: sort of getting exposed. The camera angles are incredible, the 536 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 2: slow mo is amazing, and it's like, this game is 537 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 2: probably really tough to litigate as it's happening, and I 538 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,439 Speaker 2: don't rob help me understand referee assists, Like what the 539 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:14,360 Speaker 2: hell is that? Because McVeigh had to burn a challenge 540 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 2: early in Rams Eagles when the referee assists could have 541 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 2: just been like, that's a catch, let's move on. I 542 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 2: don't know how referee assist works, do you no? 543 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 4: And that's the problem because they there's no rhyme or 544 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 4: reason as to when they use it or don't use it. 545 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,920 Speaker 4: Like there were certain times throughout the regular season where 546 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:35,240 Speaker 4: you're like, hey, that's clearly an interception, the guy caught 547 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 4: it or has clearly a fumble. We don't got to 548 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 4: waste a challenge, We don't gotta go, we don't gotta 549 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 4: go to commercial break. They're like, hey, replay assists determined 550 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:46,400 Speaker 4: that was a catch, that was whatever, his knee was down, cool, 551 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 4: keep it moving. And then there's other times where it's 552 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 4: clear again and for whatever reason, replayces doesn't step in, 553 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 4: And that's kind of where we're at with the NFL. 554 00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 4: And and to your point about it being slow, and 555 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:04,440 Speaker 4: I guess you could say bad football to anybody who 556 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 4: says that they love snow football games, like, oh, it's 557 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:08,880 Speaker 4: football weather. 558 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 3: You see the blizzard. 559 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 4: We got negative eight degrees and ice and a blizzard 560 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:16,399 Speaker 4: all day. I don't know about you, but I was 561 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 4: very excited to see Lamar Jackson Josh Allen the two 562 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 4: MVPs go head to head. I was expecting fireworks, yeah, 563 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 4: and instead we got sloppy Lamar Jackson and muted Josh 564 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,959 Speaker 4: Allen because everyone's so worried about the weather and they 565 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 4: couldn't do. And then the worst one was actually the 566 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 4: earlier game the Eagles and the Rams, where it was 567 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 4: so bad where they were saying during the broadcast, yeah, 568 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 4: these teams are afraid to throw the ball pass like 569 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 4: nine yards because the receivers can't change directions, and it's just, hey, 570 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 4: you gotta chop your feet a certain way and hopefully 571 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 4: you can fall forward. And then it's just like, like, 572 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 4: I know, it's cool to say you played in snow 573 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 4: and it looks great on TV, but the actual football 574 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 4: of it was just. 575 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 3: You know, not great. 576 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 2: It was it was pedestrian at best. And I'll say this, 577 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 2: I got the feeling that these guys are coaching a 578 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 2: little scared. Nobody wants to make a mistake, and the 579 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 2: quarterbacks have rained it. You don't want to make a mistake. 580 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 2: You don't want to Jared Goffit. He fumbled in the 581 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 2: red zone. In the red zone, you know you don't. 582 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 2: I mean Stafford. I thought Stafford was okay. You know, 583 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 2: he did have a bad fumble, But like you, you 584 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 2: don't want to be the guy who makes it one. 585 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 2: I mean again, we're talking about games where there's what 586 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 2: eight let me see how many possessions were had in 587 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 2: this game? Usually it's what eight or nine drive? Yeah, 588 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 2: total drives. In Chiefs Texans, each of them had nine. 589 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 2: I mean, if you're turning it over on one or 590 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 2: two of those, your chances of winning go down significantly. 591 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 2: In Ravens Bills, there were nine possessions of each, So like, 592 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 2: that's what you're getting. You got to make the most 593 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 2: of them, and you can't turn the ball over. That's 594 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 2: just that's a killer. 595 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 596 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 1: the nation.

It's funny, Rob. 602 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 2: We we've been hearing about how great of a defensive 603 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 2: coach Aaron glenn Is, and oh, my gosh, that performance 604 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 2: against the Vikings a few weeks back. Oh, to lock 605 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 2: up the number one spectacular. I don't know, it's it's 606 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 2: almost like the Vikings weren't that great. You know what 607 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 2: the Rams do to them? Easy to confuse Sam Darnold, 608 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 2: I mean the I got some notes heer on on 609 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 2: the Detroit defense, the mighty Detroit defense. So Washington had 610 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 2: four touchdown drives of seventy or more yards. They had 611 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 2: nine drives and five touchdowns. Detroit had five turnovers. You 612 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 2: get to the red zone, Washington four for four. You know. Oh, 613 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 2: this was a key one the fourth downs. I need 614 00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 2: to talk about this for Jadan Daniels because I'm just 615 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 2: telling you guys, like the Ego's defense is obviously better 616 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 2: than the Lions, and Daniels won't go crazy, but fourth 617 00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 2: and two inside the five, and they went for it. 618 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 2: Fourth and two inside the red zone eight minutes left, 619 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:17,880 Speaker 2: they went for it. They end up getting a touchdown. 620 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 2: Like these guys go for it because of Daniels and 621 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 2: his speed and they know every possession matters. And against Detroit, listen, 622 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 2: Detroit's gonna score. And for Cliff Kingsbury to get like 623 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 2: very few looks in the head coaching front, while Aaron 624 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 2: Glenn is the toast of the town. I don't know, guys. Again, 625 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 2: I know they lost Daidon Hutchinson and a bunch of dudes, 626 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 2: but this defense was never great. And I'm not gonna 627 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 2: crap on Ben Johnson because Jared Goff had a bunch 628 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:49,840 Speaker 2: of bad turnovers. The only only knock was that late 629 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 2: gadget play in the fourth quarter where Jamison Williams was 630 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 2: supposed to throw a pass and you know he's a 631 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 2: smart enough player to look downfield and be like, oh shit, 632 00:31:57,800 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 2: there's two defenders that I probably shouldn't throw this through 633 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:00,640 Speaker 2: it anyway. 634 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 4: Kicked off, he went full twenty eighteen. Josh Allen just like, hey, 635 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 4: someone's down there, I'm throwing it up. 636 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 2: I think he was the one who was like mimicking 637 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 2: sex with the end zone. Did you see that on 638 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 2: a celebration. It's like, Jamo, my guy. Now, I wonder 639 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 2: this awesome Lions two year run here. If they lose 640 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 2: Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn, do they take a big 641 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 2: step back? 642 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 3: Are you asking me? Or is this you want to change? 643 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm trying to I'm just talking through it. 644 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:33,959 Speaker 4: Absolutely they do. Yeah, we saw what happened with Philadelphia. Yeah, 645 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 4: they when they lost both their coordinators. Again, when your 646 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:39,880 Speaker 4: head coach does not call either side, he's the CEO coach, 647 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 4: Nick Siriani. Look how quickly that melted down in Philadelphia 648 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:46,800 Speaker 4: last season, Like I mean, he was on the hot 649 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 4: seat coming off of a ten win season or ten 650 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 4: to eleven win season before that. The last time it 651 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 4: happened where a team lost both coordinators and the same offseason, 652 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:58,320 Speaker 4: lose two thousand and four with the Patriots and they 653 00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 4: lost Fornell and they lost Charlie Watch weisch wents a 654 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 4: Notre Dame. That's the next season they go from twelve 655 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:05,960 Speaker 4: and four Super Bowl. So I think they went ten 656 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 4: and six and lost in the divisional round. So it's 657 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 4: impossible to say, oh, yeah, we're gonna keep rugging along. 658 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 4: We're gonna be right back where we were this time 659 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:16,560 Speaker 4: this year and then last year with an Anty JamMan 660 00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 4: gam It doesn't work like that. You know there's going 661 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 4: to be some kind of regression. Now maybe that doesn't 662 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:25,240 Speaker 4: mean that you're not gonna make the playoffs, but you're 663 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 4: definitely not gonna be well with a fifteen and two 664 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 4: the hell though, I can promise you you're not gonna 665 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 4: do that. And unless Dan Campbell has another Ben Johnson 666 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 4: on the staff, like and there's a quarterback coach we 667 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 4: never heard of that can call those same kind of 668 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 4: plays like good luck. 669 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 2: Who was Ben Johnson, by the way, like four years ago. 670 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 2: It's a good question nobody knew he was so quickly. 671 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 2: The lines are Eagles minus five. It was minus five 672 00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 2: and a half. Obviously, when Washington takes down a number 673 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:57,760 Speaker 2: one seed. Eagles didn't look amazing for the second straight 674 00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 2: week in the playoffs. They did lose their cornerback, young 675 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 2: kid Mitchell, the rookie. That seems significant. I know someone else. 676 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,480 Speaker 2: Oh no, that was in the Buffalo game, Tarron Johnson 677 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:13,839 Speaker 2: went down. I don't know. The Eagles are a heart 678 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:15,800 Speaker 2: attack waiting to happen. Obviously, you gotta wait on the 679 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 2: the weather report out of Philly. These are two outdoor games, 680 00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 2: so I'm sure it'll be sub thirty five degrees. But 681 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:26,480 Speaker 2: the kicker missing two extra points but making a couple 682 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:27,919 Speaker 2: of field goals in the snow was kind of odd. 683 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:31,560 Speaker 2: Jake Elliott, who has regressed big time. However, Washington's kicker, 684 00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:34,320 Speaker 2: I don't trust him a lick, which probably means some 685 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 2: more high leverage four downs from Jade Daniels early lean. 686 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:43,719 Speaker 2: I yes, I'll take the Eagles. It's just right now. 687 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,920 Speaker 2: It's fun to back, you know, Jamee Daniels. And then 688 00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 2: the other one. I'm a little surprised that this Chiefs 689 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:53,719 Speaker 2: only opened minus one at home against the Bills. And 690 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:56,359 Speaker 2: you guys know what, most of these trend betters, please 691 00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:58,440 Speaker 2: don't be a trend better do is? They say? Oh, 692 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes under a field goal, that's an automatic bet. 693 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 2: But interestingly this was one and a half and early 694 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 2: money came in on Buffalo. I'm rooting Bills here. I 695 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 2: want them to win, but come on, Patrick Mahomes never 696 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 2: loses this game. He doesn't. The only guys to beat 697 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 2: him at Arrowhead were Joe Burrow in overtime and then 698 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,280 Speaker 2: Tom Brady in overtime. I'm pretty sure in the postseason, 699 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 2: right Rob. 700 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 4: Oh, I know, I know Burrow. I'm pretty sure it 701 00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 4: is Mom's early in his career though. 702 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it was Brady in overtime. I remember, I was, 703 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:35,880 Speaker 2: I remember where I was watching. He kept going to 704 00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 2: gronk over the middle in overtime, and I don't think 705 00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 2: they ever was that. 706 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:41,280 Speaker 4: The game where Tony Romo kind of made his celebrity 707 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:44,879 Speaker 4: where he was yeah, right, and then it's completely fallen off. 708 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 2: Since then, has it fallen off? I mean I haven't been. 709 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 4: People have turned on Tony Romo in a big way. 710 00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 4: I know you're not on Twitter like I am. I 711 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 4: know you're more of an IG guy, but oh yeah, 712 00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 4: people really are over that Tony Romo. 713 00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:01,800 Speaker 2: Experience, like him and Nance. It's fine, So I guess 714 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:05,520 Speaker 2: I will. I'll say Eagles versus Bills early early. The 715 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:08,879 Speaker 2: only bet I have currently is I tease the Bills up, 716 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,399 Speaker 2: I tease the Eagles down, and I tossed in Ohio State, 717 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,759 Speaker 2: which plays tonight down. Ohio State's up to nine, So 718 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:18,840 Speaker 2: I think you know you use a seven point teaser 719 00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 2: Eagles kind of teaser. Dumb, You're not going through seven 720 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:23,360 Speaker 2: You're just getting a plus two, which is kind of 721 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:28,360 Speaker 2: silly and pointless, and Buffalo up to eight. So I 722 00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 2: think they're gonna be able to hang So that that 723 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 2: is my early bet. And obviously, if if you know, 724 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 2: Ohio State ends up losing to Notre Dame tonight, we're 725 00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:38,000 Speaker 2: not going to preview it. You can go back to 726 00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 2: the Dan Wolken interview last week. I'll RePOP that. Yeah, 727 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 2: so I think Ohio State wins and my guess is Eagles, 728 00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 2: and I guess I'll go bills with win. I don't know, Robie, 729 00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:54,799 Speaker 2: do you really think they could pull this off? 730 00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 4: Not if they play the way they're on Sunday now 731 00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:00,160 Speaker 4: they are. They're not going to be able to tow 732 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:03,919 Speaker 4: out Chiefs the Chiefs. They are not gonna be able 733 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 4: to be conservative, control the ball, play defense like that's 734 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:09,319 Speaker 4: what the Chiefs have been winning with all season. You're 735 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:11,319 Speaker 4: not gonna be able to do that to them, and 736 00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 4: that coach and that quarterback. It's just not gonna happen. 737 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:17,959 Speaker 4: You were gonna need Josh Allen two, three, four, five 738 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:21,200 Speaker 4: times to make a Josh Allen all Caps play. We 739 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 4: saw it in the last game. It was that twenty 740 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:25,440 Speaker 4: seven yard touchdown on fourth and two, Like that was 741 00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,840 Speaker 4: the play. You need Josh Allen to do two or 742 00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:29,840 Speaker 4: three of those for them to have a chance to 743 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:31,399 Speaker 4: win that game. So that one I'm still not ready 744 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:33,719 Speaker 4: to pick. I'm still kind of marinating on it. I 745 00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 4: don't know how you're betting against the Commanders though. 746 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 2: Oh oh yeah, it was a fourth you're right, fourth 747 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:45,280 Speaker 2: and two with two seventeen left. They were up twenty 748 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:48,600 Speaker 2: three to twenty one, so a field goal and would 749 00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:51,360 Speaker 2: have got you, Oh we're up by five, and Mahomes 750 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:53,120 Speaker 2: would just come down the field and get a touchdown 751 00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:55,800 Speaker 2: and you lose. So they let let Josh Allen carry 752 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:59,959 Speaker 2: an amazing touchdown run. Now I'm looking at that game. 753 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 2: So two interceptions by Mahomes won by Allen both teams. 754 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:09,680 Speaker 2: That was a close game. That was a really close game. 755 00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 2: Now the Bills were at home. Obviously I haven't checked 756 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:15,560 Speaker 2: to see injury wise, but I'm just telling you, guys, 757 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:21,120 Speaker 2: these Chiefs continue to play just a deestrian offense. They 758 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:23,680 Speaker 2: had two hundred and twelve yards against the Texas. Now 759 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,360 Speaker 2: the Texas defense is good, right, but two hundred and 760 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 2: twelve yards really, and Mahomes was under duress. They got 761 00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 2: him three times. I think this could be, you know, 762 00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:35,400 Speaker 2: one of these like Von Miller Ageless Wonder games and 763 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:38,080 Speaker 2: the and the Bills show up. I'll be rooting heavily 764 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:41,359 Speaker 2: for the Buffalo Bills. Me to wonder if I wonder 765 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:42,800 Speaker 2: if I need to get a Bill's jersey, If you 766 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:45,680 Speaker 2: could get any Bills jersey to wear, throwback or current, 767 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 2: who would you go with? 768 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:49,920 Speaker 4: Oh, Okay, I'm gonna take Josh Allen off the table 769 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 4: because it's too obvious. Yeah, I'm gonna roll with Andre Reid. 770 00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:57,720 Speaker 2: Oh, I was gonna go read or Thurman Thomas. Okay, 771 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,719 Speaker 2: I gotta say I like, even as Jets fan, I 772 00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 2: was I respected those Bills because they got to three 773 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:07,080 Speaker 2: straight Super Bowls, just like respect the Chiefs. I just 774 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:09,920 Speaker 2: you know, I don't like the Chiefs. You know, they 775 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:11,919 Speaker 2: win everything. Let's let someone else get in there. 776 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 3: Are you? 777 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:16,839 Speaker 4: Are you really betting against the Commanders though quickly early 778 00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:18,200 Speaker 4: in the week. I mean you can say it you 779 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,840 Speaker 4: got the Eagles to win. I understand that point, but 780 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 4: are you really betting a game? Daniels has more playoff 781 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:30,280 Speaker 4: victories in this postseason, too, than he has negative plays one. 782 00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:35,319 Speaker 2: Oh, my gosh. Wow. So I'll just I'll he. 783 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,200 Speaker 3: Punted one time in the playoffs so far. 784 00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:40,240 Speaker 2: That's insane. Let me answer a question with a question. 785 00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:43,120 Speaker 2: Are the Eagles going to turn the ball over five times? 786 00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 1: No? 787 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 2: Are they going to turn over three times? You know, like, 788 00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:49,720 Speaker 2: if you're telling me Hurts is going to be awful 789 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 2: and a screw up, then yeah, I think Washington will 790 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 2: have a chance. I don't see Philly. I'm strying to 791 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 2: see if Philly even has a turnover this postseason. Oh man, 792 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:03,320 Speaker 2: they uh yeah, they didn't lose a turnover against the Rams, 793 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 2: and then last week against the Packers they had zero 794 00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:13,399 Speaker 2: turnovers and the Packers had four. So I mean they're 795 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 2: plus six in turnover ratio in the postseason. I'm sure Washington. 796 00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:25,800 Speaker 2: Let's see what Washington was. They were plus five against Detroit. 797 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:28,879 Speaker 2: You ain't losing that. And then last week against Tampa, 798 00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:31,480 Speaker 2: Tampa had the brutal fumble in the in the red 799 00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:33,960 Speaker 2: zone and that was the only footbal So both teams 800 00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:37,359 Speaker 2: are plus six in turnovers and one of those two 801 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 2: will I mean, come on, it's gonna happen. I thot 802 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:41,920 Speaker 2: Eagles defense is really awesome, man. 803 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:44,160 Speaker 3: They're really good.
