1
00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:15,680
Speaker 1: The volume. This is Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre. What

2
00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 1: is up straight firefam, It's me Jason McIntyre. Straight Fire

3
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:25,680
Speaker 1: for Thursday, November sixteenth. Finally got a really good primetime

4
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 1: game Bengals Raven's best bet. At the end of the podcast,

5
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 1: I think you'll be surprised. And no, it's not revenge

6
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:34,480
Speaker 1: on a team that let me down last week. I'm

7
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:38,240
Speaker 1: much deeper than that as a gambler. Fun night in

8
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,919
Speaker 1: the Association. Huh, we will get to another seventy six

9
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 1: ers loss. Yes, Celtics crush them without Porzingis and nobody

10
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:48,479
Speaker 1: really cares. I have a theory about the Clippers. I'll

11
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,840
Speaker 1: hit you with. I think I gotta start well, actually

12
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 1: before I get to that, before I get to the

13
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:58,520
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson news. So there was like a peer lighting

14
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,959
Speaker 1: down here in the South Bay on Wednesday, and I

15
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 1: went down with my dog and my daughter. My wife

16
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:06,480
Speaker 1: was with my son at a chest thing, and I'm walking.

17
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 1: You know, it's kind of a crowded, it's rainy, you know,

18
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 1: it's kind of chilly, like a crappy weather this week

19
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 1: in la Very Rare. And my wife's friend who has

20
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 1: a son, and my son's grade and a son and

21
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 1: my daughter's grade. I see her and as I was

22
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: saying hi to her, this guy walking by is like

23
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 1: Jay Mack, and my daughter like kind of turns around.

24
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:31,679
Speaker 1: It was, you know, a crowd, and he's like, dude,

25
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: I listen to straight Fire every day. I was like, wow,

26
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 1: that is so cool. And he goes to introduce you

27
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 1: to his wife with the line this is the guy

28
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 1: who says that no women ever know who he is,

29
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 1: just guys, and I start cracking up. It was pretty funny,

30
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: and it's good to hear there are straight Fire listeners

31
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 1: out there who actually see me out in public. I

32
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,600
Speaker 1: am a man of the people. I don't get out often,

33
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: but I will be out in full effect this weekend.

34
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: It's my son's bar mitzvah. Fun fact. J Mack has

35
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 1: never attended a bar mits before. I was actually looking

36
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 1: at some dance moves with my kids. This news thing

37
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 1: called a slick back. You gotta be ready. No, I

38
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,880
Speaker 1: will not attempt to try that. I'll probably get a

39
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 1: bad injury. It's been working on my griddy just in case.

40
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: But in actual real sports news that you guys care about.

41
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 1: Sad news. On Wednesday, Deshaun Watson. It's revealed that he

42
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,640
Speaker 1: brew broke a bone in his throwing shoulder during the

43
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 1: win over the Ravens on Sunday. What's crazy is in

44
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 1: the second half, Watson was fourteen of fourteen and led

45
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:44,399
Speaker 1: two incredible touchdown drives to beat the Ravens in Baltimore.

46
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: And he did all that with a broken bone in

47
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:49,679
Speaker 1: his shoulder. So once the mri I revealed the broken bone,

48
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 1: he's gonna get surgery and he's out for the season,

49
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 1: and the Browns are kind of sort of toast. And

50
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 1: here's the crazy part. The Browns had Josh Dobbs back

51
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:03,240
Speaker 1: in August, traded him. They saw what they what they

52
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 1: loved out a DTR in the preseason, the young rookie

53
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 1: from UCLA. They thought, oh, that's our backup. We got DTR.

54
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 1: And of course he goes in against the Ravens when

55
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 1: Watson was hurt earlier this season, and he looked very

56
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: much like a rookie, and instantly they were like, oh,

57
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:19,959
Speaker 1: that's not gonna work. We got to bring in PJ.

58
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: Tucker to back up Deshaun Watson. DTR clearly not ready,

59
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 1: and now Watson's done for the season. The Browns are

60
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 1: in like prime position in the AFC to steal a waldcard.

61
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 1: I don't think they can win the division now, certainly

62
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 1: without Watson, they're not winning any division. It's certainly not

63
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 1: one with the Bengals and Ravens in it. And don't

64
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 1: even will give the Steelers a little bit of credit,

65
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 1: even though we know they have the negative point differential.

66
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 1: But Cleveland six and three firmly in the thick of

67
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 1: things in the wildcard race. But here's the problem. Can

68
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: they hold on to that spot eight games left? And

69
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 1: here's the here's what's even wilder. So they had Josh Dobbs,

70
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 1: they traded him away to Arizona. Dobbs has since been

71
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 1: dealt in Minnesota and Cleveland stiff Kevin Stefanski announced they

72
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 1: will start dtr again. He's back against Pittsburgh this week. Now, listen,

73
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 1: you know Cleve Ta, longtime guest of the podcast. He

74
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:17,720
Speaker 1: came on my Fox Sports radio show when I had

75
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 1: one before I stopped doing that for the podcast, and

76
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: he's a big Cleveland guy. Okay, he had an interesting

77
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: theory on why Donovan Dorian Thompson Robinson is starting this

78
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 1: week instead of PJ. Walker. Besides the fact that Walker

79
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 1: was pretty bad as a quarterback. The Steelers will be

80
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: coming off the edge hot with Watt and Heismith. The

81
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:48,280
Speaker 1: Browns are Downboat starting tackles. Okay, you don't want PJ.

82
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 1: Walker to be a sitting duck in the pocket. Dtr

83
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 1: extremely mobile, very dangerous with the scrambles is the guy

84
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 1: you want back there now. He's probably gonna be running

85
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 1: for his life early. Often. My thing is that the

86
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh secondary is not great. Jordan Love moved the ball

87
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 1: against them. I thought Will Levis had some moments like I.

88
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: I mean again, I don't think very highly of PJ. Walker,

89
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 1: But don't you think Walker could do some things against

90
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 1: these guys? Now he is gonna be a sitting duck.

91
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 1: We'll see what Stefanski can do. But I don't know, man,

92
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 1: It's just it just stinks. And honestly, around the league,

93
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:26,400
Speaker 1: you just look at how many backup quarterbacks are being

94
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 1: thrust into action, Like the Patriots might come out of

95
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 1: the bye week and it might be Bailey's appy time,

96
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 1: Like we don't know, no idea. You look at Tennessee,

97
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 1: They've kicked Tannehill to the curb. Indy Anthony Richardson is

98
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,480
Speaker 1: done for the season. You know we're we're on Gardner

99
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 1: Minshew time. Yeah. You look at the Raiders, they have said,

100
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,279
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo, you're not our guy. We're gonna roll with

101
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,600
Speaker 1: AOC like throughout the league. Giants announced they're starting to

102
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,040
Speaker 1: veto the third stringer again. The Giants are very clearly tanking.

103
00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 1: I mean my only even if they say next week

104
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 1: there's starting Matt Barkley or whatever, they're still taking guys.

105
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 1: You look at the Minnesota Vikings are on their backup quarterback.

106
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,919
Speaker 1: Actually they're on their third stringer because Jared Hall was

107
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: the backup got hurt in like one quarter coming in

108
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: and then now Dobbs is saving. Today, the Bears were

109
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 1: starting Bagent their backup because Fields is hurt. Now Fields

110
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 1: is back starting against the Lions. That's an interesting one.

111
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:22,840
Speaker 1: I took the took the Bears and the points. It's

112
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 1: down to nine, nine and a half. We'll talk more

113
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: about that game tomorrow, but Bears are going to be

114
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: kind of spicy and interesting this weekend. I believe we

115
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:34,479
Speaker 1: don't know what's going to happen out of the bye

116
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 1: with the Saints. If car is still going to be hurt.

117
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 1: Atlanta has toggled between Ritterer and Heinike, and now it

118
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 1: sounds like when they come out of the by it's

119
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:48,039
Speaker 1: probably gonna be ridder. You know, Carolina has the Bryce

120
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:52,480
Speaker 1: Young experience that's not going great. Arizona now is back

121
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 1: with Kyler Murray. Like it sounds like Stafford's back this weekend. Like,

122
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 1: come on, half the league's got quarterback issues. You know,

123
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: I'll just go back to this. Ultimately, the Philadelphia Eagles

124
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:07,479
Speaker 1: have built a team better than I think anyone else

125
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 1: in the league. They have put a premium on. We

126
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 1: are building in the trenches on the offensive line. We're

127
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: gonna build the defensive line. We're just gonna draft as

128
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 1: many defensive linemen as possible. We've got our quarterback. We've

129
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: got the brotherly shove thanks to that offensive line. We

130
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 1: had Miles Sanders last year. He was great. Thank you

131
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: for your time, Thank you for your service. We're on

132
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 1: to DeAndre Swift. Swift looks amazing. Miles Sanders, by the way,

133
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 1: he's just a train wreck in Carolina. It looks like

134
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: Chuba Hubbard is gonna beat him out and continue to

135
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 1: beat him out. The rest of the way Sanders has

136
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 1: not been good, but like that's how you build the team. Now,

137
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 1: the Eagles secondary is starting to show some cracks, and

138
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 1: of course they got the Monday night Super Bowl rematch

139
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 1: is going to be amazing. I kind of sort of

140
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 1: like Casey in that one. But we'll see. But the

141
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: Eagles have the blueprint you need to build inside out,

142
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 1: start in the trenches. And you look around the league

143
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 1: and a lot of teams just they don't have the

144
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 1: trenches solidified and it's tough to find linemen. Yeah, so

145
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 1: that's where we are with the Cleveland Browns. Deshaun Watson

146
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 1: done for the year. I mean, my gut would tell

147
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:14,680
Speaker 1: me that in a loaded AFC, the Chargers still have

148
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 1: a shot. Obviously, they can't lose this weekend in Green Bay,

149
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 1: and I just I'm not a firm believer in a

150
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: rookie backup quarterback getting me there. Remember this Cleveland defense

151
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 1: has been excellent at home. On the road slightly less impressive.

152
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:35,959
Speaker 1: We'll see, Bengals still have Burrow. Kenny Pickett's the third

153
00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:38,080
Speaker 1: best quarterback in the division. You know, like Cleveland's got

154
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 1: a major uphill climb. The Jets barely showing signs of life.

155
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 1: They are, you know, the what's it called the the

156
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 1: paddles that you put on somebody to bring them back

157
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 1: to life. The Jets. Someone is currently paddling the Jets

158
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 1: chest trying to bring them back to life. They're not

159
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:58,560
Speaker 1: totally dead. It might be over sooner than we think though.

160
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 1: For my Jets, it's that game against Buffalo probably will

161
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 1: end their season, then Miami after that. So great, great,

162
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 1: wonderful things things are looking up for by Jet football

163
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 1: is back. No more preseason games. The regular season is here.

00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,080
Speaker 1: All right, I want to quickly pivot to the NBA.

179
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 1: Really good night. Obviously, the Draymond Green story is super fascinating.

180
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: He was suspended for five games for his choke hold

181
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: of Rudy Gobert. It was a quick verdict rendered by

182
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,199
Speaker 1: the NBA. I'm assuming they did not what this to fester.

183
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,320
Speaker 1: The video gets everywhere. You know how your story's bad

184
00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: for your league is when the video is making like

185
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 1: the Today Show, Good Morning America and then like Housewives

186
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 1: everywhere seeing Draymond Green choke out Rudy Gobert, Like that's

187
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 1: just not a good look for the league. Remember David

188
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: Stern in the nineties, Well, I think it was like

189
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 1: it might have been the early two thousands. Yeah, it

190
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 1: was the early two thousands that David Sern was like,

191
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 1: we got to clean up this league. We don't like

192
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 1: this whole like perception of the league is thugs and

193
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 1: gang bangers. You guys have to dress the part. The

194
00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:56,439
Speaker 1: on the bench. Remember that whole thing right around the

195
00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 1: Alan iverson time, and you know it was the thing

196
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 1: back then, like Stern made it made a point that

197
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 1: we're going to clean up the league. We want to

198
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,679
Speaker 1: broaden our appeal to housewives and young kids everywhere. They

199
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 1: were already big in the burbs. But I mean, the

200
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 1: NBA has just been a monster, not just because they

201
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 1: cleaned up the wardrobe, but they've done so many good

202
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 1: things around the league. And now you've got all this

203
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:23,559
Speaker 1: like taunting, with the stare downs and the too small

204
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 1: some of the you know, I could see Adam Silver

205
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:31,680
Speaker 1: not being thrilled. And now you've had Draymond Green three

206
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 1: times here in the last week go after people Donovan Mitchell,

207
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 1: Anthony Edwards, and now go bear who he really hates.

208
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 1: I mean, the list of guys that Draymond Green hates

209
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: is longer than a CVS re seat where he knocked

210
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 1: out his teammate Jordan Poole. He had a moment with

211
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 1: Dylan Brooks. They got into it, obviously, stomping out some bonus,

212
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 1: kicking Steven Adams and the nuts, punching lebron and the

213
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 1: balls in the finals, him and Bradley Beal got into it.

214
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: You know, how about this him and his own teammate

215
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,319
Speaker 1: Kevin Durant. Remember it wasn't physical, but like he essentially,

216
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,880
Speaker 1: I guarantee you if you hooked up Kevin Durant to

217
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: a light detector. The main reason or the one of

218
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: the top, I'll say the main I'll go, I'll go

219
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 1: for it. The main reason he left Golden State it

220
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,199
Speaker 1: wasn't just because it was Curry's team. It was this

221
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 1: Draymond Green crap, like Draymond Green chewing him out on

222
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,600
Speaker 1: the bench, yelling at him, training him like crap. I

223
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 1: just the guy, Listen, I get it. That's that's his shtick.

224
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: He's known for that. He's leaning all the way into it.

225
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,679
Speaker 1: But the league now suspending him for five games. You

226
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 1: got the Steph Curry knee issue. Suddenly the Golden State Warriors,

227
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,079
Speaker 1: who are you know, I don't want to say spiraling,

228
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 1: but they are. They're in a bit of a free

229
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 1: fall now. There's no parachute, and Clayton's is not saving today,

230
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 1: and Andrew Wiggins isn't saving the day. And I'm sure

231
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 1: they'll pick it up down the stretch. You know, they'll

232
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,199
Speaker 1: they'll right the ship, maybe February or whatever. But I

233
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 1: do want to be clear about something. We need to

234
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 1: stop overreacting two three and four and five game sample

235
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 1: sizes in the NBA. This is becoming an issue, and

236
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 1: I'm seeing it with the Clippers and the James Harden saga.

237
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 1: Oh the Clippers are all and five with James Harden.

238
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:14,440
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, they kidder. I gonna figure this out,

239
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 1: and everybody's quickly rendering a verdict. So I did. I

240
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 1: did this thing called math, and there's eighty two games

241
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 1: in an NBA season. There are seventeen in an NBA season.

242
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 1: I did on a calculator. Seventeen divided by eighty two,

243
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 1: it comes out to four point eight. Essentially four point

244
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 1: eight NBA games equals one NFL game. So all this,

245
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, James Harden, Clippers, oh and five, it's

246
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 1: essentially one NBA game. It's it's five NBA games, one

247
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 1: NFL game, the equivalent of one NFL game. That's it.

248
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 1: The forty nine Ers recently went on a three game

249
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 1: losing streak. Okay, three times four point eight, that's fourteen.

250
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,319
Speaker 1: Nobody's played fourteen games in the NBA this season, and

251
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 1: that many losing streak for the Niners didn't define them.

252
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 1: Three games. They had some injuries, kicker missus field goal

253
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 1: at the buzzer. They lose three straight, not the end

254
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 1: of the world. They come out of it smash the Jags.

255
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 1: All is right in the world. So the equivalent of

256
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:26,320
Speaker 1: a three game NFL losing streak fourteen NBA games. Wouldn't

257
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,200
Speaker 1: we get to the fourteen NBA game mark. If someone

258
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 1: is I don't know, two and twelve, I think it's time.

259
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 1: Whoa like they've got some issue Like two and twelve

260
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 1: tough to dig out of that hole. Three game losing

261
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 1: streak in the NFL not a death sentence. Tough to

262
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: come out of, but not a death sentence. It's like

263
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 1: the Washington Wizards are trending towards one of these two

264
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 1: and twelve stretches, but the Clippers, like they're gonna have

265
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 1: time to figure out. And that's why if we're treating

266
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 1: the NBA like a stock market, I am buying Clippers

267
00:14:57,760 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 1: stock now. The problem, of course, is I do like

268
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 1: the l As my buddy has season tickets, I go

269
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 1: to Lakers games. I don't often go to Clippers games.

270
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 1: I think the only Clippers games I've been to are

271
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 1: Lakers Clippers games, so I don't like them. Like, I'm

272
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 1: not a huge Kawhi fan. He's a really good player.

273
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 1: But like again, money's green, as they say, I'm buying

274
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 1: Clipper stock. I do believe this team will figure it out.

275
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 1: Now if they get an injury, which has happened almost

276
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 1: every year with Kawhi and Paul George. Yeah they're toast,

277
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 1: But I'm just telling you, I like what I saw

278
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 1: against the Nuggets despite the way they closed, this team

279
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 1: was just thrown together. Like yesterday, they just got James Harden.

280
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 1: Now they've been planning for him obviously, but they just

281
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 1: got him. Tyler's tinkering. He had Kawhi on Jokics down

282
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,200
Speaker 1: the stretch. He tried Paul George on Jokic, like he's tinkering.

283
00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 1: Can we just relax a little bit? This five game

284
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 1: stretch one NFL game is the equivalent of Josh Dobbs

285
00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 1: getting traded to Minnesota, going in not knowing the plays

286
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 1: and hey man, hey, hey, just go make a play

287
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 1: with your legs, you know, just get keep the play going,

288
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 1: figure it out, Like that's what he's doing in Minnesota.

289
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 1: He did that in Week one. Now that's what the

290
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 1: Clippers are trying to do now, it doesn't look pretty.

291
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 1: It's hey Kawhi, get her on the elbow. We'll get

292
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 1: it to you on the nail and go to work.

293
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 1: Hey Paul Iso, James Rden Iso, Like they're not moving

294
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 1: off the balls. That will come with time. And again,

295
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 1: I don't like the Clippers. You guys know that. I'm

296
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 1: just saying if you're being objective to what's happening in

297
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 1: the league and you're looking around and you see the

298
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:35,119
Speaker 1: talent this team has in the depth and the options,

299
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 1: whether it's Norm Powell. I like how they didn't play

300
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 1: Westbrook down the stretch against the Nuggets. Terrence Man is

301
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 1: starting to play again, like coming off the injury. Like

302
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 1: this team. It's just a flashing by signal for me

303
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 1: on the on the paper clips. So Lakers get smashed

304
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 1: by Sacramento at home. Not a great loss, obviously after

305
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 1: their three game winning streak. Again, they've got Lebron and

306
00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 1: ad I'm not worried. Well, Jay, why are you worried

307
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:04,399
Speaker 1: about that? The Warriors? Well, Andrew Wiggins just isn't the

308
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,879
Speaker 1: same guy at all. We didn't see it totally from

309
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 1: him at the end of last year during the finals year,

310
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 1: the first year we got it, he was awesome. But

311
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 1: I mean again, he took that lead extended leave of

312
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:17,920
Speaker 1: absence by the way. I haven't read what happened to him.

313
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:21,240
Speaker 1: Do we know? Some like personal issue, missed like thirty games,

314
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,119
Speaker 1: and he just has not been the same guy. Clay

315
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 1: clearly is not the same guy. He had a good

316
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,959
Speaker 1: run last year late in that regular season. Maybe that's coming,

317
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:34,200
Speaker 1: but we'll see. And they're incredibly reliant on Steph Curry.

318
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 1: Besides not having any height inside like in the West,

319
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:42,639
Speaker 1: this Minnesota team, Let's see where Minnesota is at the

320
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 1: twenty eight game mark. That would be the equivalent of

321
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:50,400
Speaker 1: six NFL games Minnesota right now to me, all everybody,

322
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,040
Speaker 1: let's just assume health for everybody. Minnesota looks like a

323
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 1: top four team in the West. The four best teams

324
00:17:55,600 --> 00:18:00,720
Speaker 1: I've seen so far Denver, Dallas, Minnesota, and Man. Well,

325
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 1: I I guess I can't say Phoenix. They're not playing great.

326
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,600
Speaker 1: Houston's playing great, but nobody really thinks they're top four

327
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:10,240
Speaker 1: in the West. I've just got to assume one of

328
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:15,760
Speaker 1: Phoenix or Sacramento will figure it out. I'm not ready

329
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:19,879
Speaker 1: to crown o se Okay, see just yet. But I

330
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,719
Speaker 1: do think that Celtic in the East. It's Celtics and

331
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 1: then everybody else. I mean, we can toy around with it.

332
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 1: Indiana making the leap, damn it. Miami missed the playoffs.

333
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 1: Bet remember how good that looked in the first week. Yeah,

334
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,640
Speaker 1: that's Miami's now, can't lose. They won six in a row.

335
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 1: But I do love watching a little NBA every night.

336
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:45,200
Speaker 1: And let's let's quickly see what games are tonight. Obviously,

337
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 1: Thursday Night football is great. Oh look it's the Warriors

338
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 1: and Oka. See okay, see favored looks like no Curry

339
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 1: and then Heat nets wonderful heat are gonna win that game, obviously. Yeah,

340
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 1: so not a great night in the association. All right,

341
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,920

00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 1: Here's your best bet, all right, let me get in

368
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:40,239
Speaker 1: a best bet here for Bengals Ravens, which should be

369
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,480
Speaker 1: a good Thursday night football game. But then you look

370
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 1: at the injury report and you're like, Holy hell, how

371
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: many guys are out? I mean, if the line is

372
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 1: pinged between three and a half and four all week

373
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 1: as we record this, I'm seeing Ravens favor by three

374
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 1: and a half. I don't get it, especially when I'm

375
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:57,439
Speaker 1: gonna read to you who's out in this one? So

376
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 1: Ronnie Stanley, the great left tackle of the Ravens, he's out.

377
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:05,120
Speaker 1: Marlon Humphrey is doubtful. When someone's doubtful, they almost never play.

378
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 1: Trey Hendrickson for the Bengals got the big in. He

379
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:13,120
Speaker 1: has been tremendous all season. But he is. They're saying

380
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 1: he's in. He did not practice Monday, but he's starting

381
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 1: to come around and the expectation is he will play.

382
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 1: That's obviously big. He's their best defensive lineman. Sam Hubbard

383
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:24,199
Speaker 1: not in. He's been a valuable defensive end. So the

384
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:28,359
Speaker 1: Bengals banged up. But it's very clear to me in

385
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:32,919
Speaker 1: these divisional rematches, you almost certainly have to go with

386
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 1: the underdog. And you know, you look around in the

387
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,560
Speaker 1: League of Washington, huge favorite against the Giants, nobody wants

388
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 1: the Giants. I think, I don't know if I'll take

389
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 1: the Giants in the contest, but I did bet them already.

390
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,640
Speaker 1: You look at the Jets Bills. I kind of want

391
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 1: to take the Jets again, but all signs are like no, no, no,

392
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,399
Speaker 1: it's got to be the Bills. I like the Jags.

393
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 1: I might take the Jags and survivor against the Titans.

394
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 1: And I'm like, ooh, divisional game, these divisional games late

395
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:00,840
Speaker 1: in the season, Like, I'm not going to be that guy.

396
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 1: And I'm sure there are a lot of them who

397
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 1: reads off all these trends divisional underdogs in November, you know,

398
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 1: like that stuff is in the past. It's not predictive.

399
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,720
Speaker 1: There is no predictive trend. You can look at a

400
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:14,679
Speaker 1: lot of stats and look where the line goes and

401
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,800
Speaker 1: make you make your mind up. But for me, you know,

402
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 1: I think this is Bengals are pass and at three

403
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 1: and a half, sure I'll take the hook. Are they

404
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 1: the better team. I don't think so. I think you know,

405
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 1: obviously the Bengals are in a really tough spot here.

406
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 1: Nobody wants to back them after losing it home to

407
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:34,720
Speaker 1: the Houston Texans. I know the Texans are plucky with CJ. Stroud,

408
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 1: but people will call the Baltimore game of fluke and

409
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:40,199
Speaker 1: maybe it was. I don't know what's up with the

410
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 1: fourth quarter woes. It's been very wacky how they keep

411
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,399
Speaker 1: blowing fourth quarter games. They led, like with nine minutes

412
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,879
Speaker 1: left by fourteen points, and within like I don't know,

413
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:52,760
Speaker 1: ninety seconds, it was tied and they just could not close. Listen,

414
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:56,399
Speaker 1: it's that the Bengals are not a great team. If

415
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:58,800
Speaker 1: you want to, like dig into the Pro Football Focus numbers,

416
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,199
Speaker 1: the only guy grading out in the top tier of

417
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,720
Speaker 1: his position on this defense is Trey Hendrickson. That's it.

418
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 1: Everyone else struggle bus. They got the safety Nick Scott

419
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: for a Penn State standout. He has graded out as

420
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 1: the worst safety in the league according to Pro Football Focus.

421
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:19,400
Speaker 1: Again just one data point. But like I mean, I've

422
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 1: seen the Ravens offense explode and pop and be really

423
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,679
Speaker 1: really good. But you know, they moved the ball at

424
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 1: will last time the Bengals met them, and I was

425
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 1: on the Bengals last time. Could I back the Bengals again? Yes,

426
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,640
Speaker 1: I think I have to. I think if you're looking

427
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,760
Speaker 1: at the head coaching job, that Hardball's done. He's been

428
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 1: outstanding this year. I don't think anybody thought they would

429
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 1: quite be this good. I just think I think this

430
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:43,960
Speaker 1: has to be line three when you look at these

431
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 1: divisional matchups, especially in when these two meet, like this

432
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,360
Speaker 1: feels like a super close game and I'm gonna ride

433
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,080
Speaker 1: at the Bengals. Not a big play, but I will

434
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:59,360
Speaker 1: go Bengals. I'll do a little on the money line,

435
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 1: but I would not be surprised by like a Bengals

436
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 1: twenty three Ravens twenty Now. I do have Justin Tucker obviously,

437
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 1: so I would love for the Ravens to kick a

438
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 1: lot of field goals. They're just I do think the

439
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:13,080
Speaker 1: stats for Baltimore are a tad skewed, and again this

440
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 1: is just my opinion, feel free to disagree. Due to

441
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:21,200
Speaker 1: the massive blowouts of non conference opponents in Baltimore, Seattle,

442
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,959
Speaker 1: and Detroit, they absolutely throttled them from start to finish,

443
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:29,359
Speaker 1: and it was like such thorough butt kickings that the

444
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:30,920
Speaker 1: numbers don't lie you look at them. I mean the

445
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,119
Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks had like one hundred and fifty yards of

446
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:36,359
Speaker 1: total offense. You know, a lot of the numbers for

447
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,400
Speaker 1: the for the Baltimore Ravens have them as like one

448
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:42,199
Speaker 1: of the great teams, not right now, but of like

449
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 1: the last decade. That's how strong their DVO has been.

450
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 1: Like Aaron Shatz guest of the pod, he go look

451
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,440
Speaker 1: at his what he's been writing for that new site,

452
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 1: FTN Fantasy or whatever it is, like he's really really

453
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 1: excited about this Baltimore Ravens team. And I think they're

454
00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 1: very good. I think McDonald's has been tremendous. But remember

455
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,440
Speaker 1: in that earlier meeting, it was you know, get week

456
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 1: two Joe Burrow who was not healthy, and they were

457
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:08,959
Speaker 1: able to take advantage. Cincinnati is playing from behind throughout.

458
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,639
Speaker 1: No T Higgins tonight, But I do believe Jamar Chase

459
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,439
Speaker 1: one hundred percent should be able to take advantage of

460
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:17,879
Speaker 1: whatever Baltimore has. They'll probably end up doubling him a

461
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 1: lot without Humphrey, But I don't think about it. The

462
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 1: give me the Steelers, I'm sorry, not the Steelers. Give

463
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:26,879
Speaker 1: me the Cincinnati Bengals on the money line and getting

464
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,639
Speaker 1: three and a half for Thursday night football. All right,

465
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,120
Speaker 1: We got a good guest lined up to talk NFL tomorrow.

466
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 1: We'll be back on Friday. Talk to you then,
