1 00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:08,080 Speaker 1: Well, following your Week fourteen Sunday, Welcome to another Monday 2 00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:09,959 Speaker 1: edition to Move the Sticks. Bret lewis here with our 3 00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:13,520 Speaker 1: former NFL Scouts lead draft analysts Daniel Jeremiah Bucky Brooks. 4 00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:16,200 Speaker 1: So on the Monday after a Sunday where we now 5 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:20,480 Speaker 1: have three four of the league, seventy percent of the 6 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:25,639 Speaker 1: league with at least six wins, which means in the 7 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:28,360 Speaker 1: playoff hunt. And this was a Sunday that we just 8 00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 1: saw where no lead was safe. Uh, comebacks a plenty, 9 00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:34,280 Speaker 1: although something that fell short. That's how we kick off 10 00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 1: our Big three here for you. This Monday will start 11 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 1: with the Bills and Bucks down in Tampa and a 12 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:41,280 Speaker 1: game that looked like the Bucks we're gonna run away with, 13 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 1: but the Bills mounting a furious second half comeback, keyed 14 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 1: by Josh Allen's three touchdowns, all in the game's final 15 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,559 Speaker 1: twenty two minutes. Field goal forced o t late for Buffalo. 16 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 1: Then the only touchdown that mattered, though, was Tom Brady's 17 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 1: seven hundred career touchdown pass that counts postseason stats came 18 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 1: in overtime. Brashon Perryman serve as your walk off winner. 19 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: Thirty seven Bucks have now won four in a row, 20 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 1: and Bucky it felt like they were going to dominate 21 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 1: this game from wire to wire, but they allowed the 22 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 1: Bills back into it, but eventually made enough place to 23 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 1: get it done. Yeah, they let the foot off the 24 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:15,480 Speaker 1: gas a little bit because this was the game, and 25 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: we stay dominated for three quarters. You saw the running game, 26 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:20,480 Speaker 1: You saw Tom Brady being efficient in the passing game. 27 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 1: They moved up and down the field, and then they 28 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 1: really were controlling the Bill's offense as well. And so 29 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,199 Speaker 1: this is kind of the classic case of a team 30 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 1: getting board, getting a little complacent, and they allowed the 31 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 1: Bills to get a little momentum, and then when that 32 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: momentum was built in the fourth quarter, then they found 33 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,120 Speaker 1: themselves in a game and they almost let a winnable 34 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:40,959 Speaker 1: game slipped through to hands. Well, one thing I argue 35 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 1: with it says on the screen right there, Tampa thirty 36 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 1: three Buffalo twenty seven should say Tampa thirty three Josh 37 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 1: Allen twenty seven, because that was a one man band 38 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 1: with Josh Allen did in this game. A team that 39 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 1: didn't hand the ball the running back in the first 40 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,279 Speaker 1: half found a running game after that, courtesy of Josh. 41 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 1: That was it. He was the entire running game, rushing 42 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 1: for over a hundred yards in this ball game. And 43 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 1: it was not just scrambles. This was QB sweep, this 44 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: was QB power, this was draws, this was zone reads. 45 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 1: They emptied out every quarterback run you could in this game, 46 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: and he delivered and got them back in the football game. Now, 47 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: the thing that worries me, obviously them not being able 48 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 1: to run the ball with backs is concerning, but then 49 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:20,399 Speaker 1: Josh Allen get nicked up, not trying to Josh Allen 50 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 1: getting nicked up in this. If Josh Allen's not healthy 51 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 1: coming down the stretch team, they're they're cooked, completely cooked 52 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: because they are dependent on him. But hats off to him. 53 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,959 Speaker 1: They didn't win the football game, but Josh Allen willed 54 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 1: them back into it to make it very competitive. And 55 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 1: the only caveat I'll say to that is like, Okay, 56 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,360 Speaker 1: if he's not add percent, he could probably still do 57 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: some Josh Allen type things. But if he's banged up 58 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: enough to where he can't put this team on his back, 59 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: then it's like they don't have enough cancers here. Uh, 60 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: they couldn't. On the flip side, while they weren't totally 61 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: you know, demoralized on the ground like they have been 62 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: in some games this year. Leonard four Net still had 63 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: a really good day at a long rushing touchdown in 64 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 1: this game. But they couldn't get after Tom Brady either. Um, 65 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:03,239 Speaker 1: and that looked, I mean, teams so quick you know 66 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: it's exactly where he's going. But he is pressured far 67 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: less than any other quarterback in football. Tristan Worth is 68 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 1: a big part of that. The second year right tackle, 69 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 1: he's the best right tackle in football right now. He's 70 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: been outstanding. No, no, it's that's an absolute home run 71 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: pick and he does it in the past game as 72 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: well as he'll move you in the run game. I mean, 73 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: I'm just consistently amazed by how quickly he has dominated 74 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: on the right side of that offensive line as a 75 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: second year player in this league and knowing all that, 76 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 1: you know that that offense and Tom Brady is a quarterback, 77 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: can put on you as an offensive line, and the 78 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: pressure that you're under for a non mobile quarterback to 79 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: keep him up right let him get out. Man. He 80 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: has been so good for that team. And look, I 81 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: mean obviously good in the run game too, because they're 82 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: they're kind of steadily creeping up in that aspect of 83 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 1: the offense. And that is a good football team getting 84 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: better down the stretch. That's the best team in the NFC. 85 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: There you go, right there, number three seed. Right now, 86 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: we're gonna see the team with the best record. We'll 87 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: get into that match up with the Cardinals and the 88 00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 1: Rams there in the NFC West tonight on Monday Night football? 89 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: Are you coming up a bit later in the show. 90 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: But look, guys, I mean those three teams, those four 91 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: teams really at the top, those division leaders in real 92 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 1: good shape. Their cowboys coming off a win over Washington 93 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: get to that here as well. And then you got 94 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: all those teams with six wins that you know are 95 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,039 Speaker 1: in the hunt Washington even with the loss, still holding 96 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: onto a spot in the playoffs. Let's look at the 97 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 1: a f C. What happens now to the Bills after 98 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: this loss. Well, it's getting desperate, and it's getting desperate 99 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: quick here because they are now grasping for dear life 100 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 1: to that final wild card spot. Seventh there in the 101 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: a f C, just behind the Colts and the Chargers. Okay, 102 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 1: let's get back to business here in the Big three. 103 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: Back to the games. It's the Ravens and the Browns, 104 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: and this one second meeting in three weeks for these 105 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 1: two teams, but for Cleveland was their second straight game 106 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 1: against Baltimore. Had to buy in between. Lamar Jackson injured 107 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 1: in this game. Tyler Huntly finishes the game at quarterback 108 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:58,359 Speaker 1: but couldn't finish the comeback. Brown survive, and the a 109 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: f C North Division race gets even more murky. Baltimore 110 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,159 Speaker 1: still technically on the top, but it does not feel 111 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 1: like they have the staying power to finish there. We'll 112 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 1: get that here in just a second, but let's start 113 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 1: with the offense here for the Cleveland Browns. It was 114 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: bad when they played the Ravens a couple of weeks ago, 115 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: a little bit better this week. Yeah, I mean still 116 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 1: don't get three yards, So I mean there's still reasons 117 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 1: to be alarmed here when you're looking at this Cleveland 118 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,720 Speaker 1: Browns offense. The one thing I will add, though, is 119 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 1: that when you watch this tape, they're down a couple 120 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,600 Speaker 1: of tight ends. They didn't run the ball as well 121 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: as they would like. I saw this Brown team up 122 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 1: close and personal. One of the reasons I was buying them, 123 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: even though they lost the game out here to the 124 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 1: Chargers was because they got in thirteen personnel with those 125 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: three tight ends. They ran the ball with those two 126 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 1: big physical backs and then you could go off play 127 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 1: action with Baker Mayfield where he's comfortable. This is a 128 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: game they didn't have the tight ends. Cream Hunt goes 129 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 1: down and it's more of kind of a drop back game. 130 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,479 Speaker 1: Even though the Ravens are decimated on defense, that's not 131 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: how That's not the Brown's formula for them to win 132 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 1: going forward. What do you think, No, it's it's not 133 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,799 Speaker 1: the formula. It's not the recipe. And I'm really surprised 134 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: because when you look at the Ravens, I'll just worry 135 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 1: about the Ravens having too many injuries to were come. 136 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 1: We can talk about the secondary did is really struggling 137 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: because you've lost two primary playmas and Marlon Humphrey and 138 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,039 Speaker 1: then Mark his features and so they don't have the 139 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 1: ability to cover and do those things. But then offensively, 140 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 1: without Lamar Jackson, you just don't have the guy who 141 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 1: can make it all go away, meaning he's the fabreeze 142 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 1: and to do he covers and mass all the odors 143 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: because his dynamic playmaks ability even though he wasn't playing great. 144 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: This offense is different when you remove him from the equation. 145 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: Tomer Hunley was amable, good performance, but he's not Lamar Jackson. 146 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 1: He missed. Yeah again, only thirty eight pass attempts on 147 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 1: the backup quarterbacks. Tough duty, I think for anybody. And 148 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:37,600 Speaker 1: that's what Tyler Huntley was charged with doing. Is they 149 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 1: were down in this game from the jump and for 150 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: much of it. Look he brought him back like they 151 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 1: had an opportunity here at the very end get the 152 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 1: on side kick, and they just couldn't quite get it done. 153 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 1: And here's the issue. They really couldn't get it done 154 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 1: on third down in this game. They converted a single 155 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: third down There were one for twelve And while Mark 156 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 1: Andrews continues to be one of the best tight ends 157 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 1: in football, levin targets and he caught eleven passes in 158 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 1: this game. He was credibly efficient here. But who else right? 159 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 1: Like who not just in the past game, but like 160 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: DeVante Freeman, is that we're gonna hang. This team has 161 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 1: not been scoring points for a long time, and they've 162 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: been able to win some football games. But I still 163 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: think when you look at it saying this was not 164 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 1: just Lamar Jackson being out of the lineup. They've they've 165 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: had issues a lot of it health really obviously the 166 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: running back with everybody else. Yeah, So it's like if 167 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 1: they're out of answers on the defensive side of the ball, 168 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 1: in the secondary, UH, they're out of answers, certainly with 169 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: Lamar Jack's very nervous, be very nervous. All right, Let's 170 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 1: continue here in the Big Three by getting back to 171 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: another team in the a f C North. That was 172 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Bengals hosting the San Francisco forty Niners here, 173 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: and so let's get to that another game where a 174 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: team built a big league forty Niners. But in the 175 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 1: second half, Joe Burrow and Jamaar Chase getting Cincinnati back 176 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: into it almost single handedly forced the uh even scored 177 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: the first points of overtime actually once they forced it 178 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: with that field goal. But then Brandon I you just 179 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 1: like levitating along the sideline just getting in initially ruled 180 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 1: down on review, it's the touchdown in the forty Niners 181 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,239 Speaker 1: get the win and o twenty six to twenty three. 182 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 1: Nick Bosa again establishing himself and asserting his dominance over 183 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: an opposing offensive line. Yeah, I feel like he' kind 184 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 1: of gone under the radar. You know, you look at 185 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 1: what Mica Parsons has done this year, you look at 186 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: what t J. Watt has done. But this guy's got 187 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: fourteen sacks, and to me, he's the best technician pass 188 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: rusher in the league in terms of you watch him 189 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: and see how good he is with his hands. You 190 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: can see it right here, the risk control that he uses, 191 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: the array of moves that he has. He can beat 192 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: you with speed, he can beat you with power. But 193 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 1: to me, I think he's the most polished pass rusher 194 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: we have in the game right now, and he's been dominant. 195 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: And don't forget this guy towards a c L last year. 196 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 1: To do what he's doing right now is pretty special. Well, 197 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: I'll give you a dominant player similarly on the other 198 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 1: side of the ball for the fort and that was 199 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 1: George Kittle in this game. Was absolutely a phenomenal thirteen 200 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,439 Speaker 1: catches on fifteen targets. And look, Kyle Shanahan does a 201 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: great job. We know that's a creative offense, and they 202 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: scheme up ways to get George Kittle in primetime opportunities. 203 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 1: But then he's just run and free down the field 204 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 1: here like that too. It's something's wrong with that from 205 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,839 Speaker 1: a defensive strategy standpoint. Here, when he's attached to the 206 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,199 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage and nobody gets a finger on him, 207 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 1: he gets free releases and finds the holes in its 208 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: own coverage even in one on one man coverage against 209 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,079 Speaker 1: a corner on a whip route. Beat him like a 210 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 1: drum against the safety, and Vaughan Bell beat him for 211 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 1: chunk plays. I mean, everybody wore some for the Cincinnati 212 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:27,199 Speaker 1: Bengals defense, including a defensive coordinator Lewin u. Yeah. Look, 213 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: this is the thing about since NATI Bengals. After the game, 214 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 1: Zach Taylor said, we felt like we threw everything at 215 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 1: them to slow down George Kittle. But then when George 216 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 1: Kitto has the kind of dated he had a hundred 217 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 1: and fifty one passing yards one touchdown, you certainly do 218 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 1: it and do a good enough job down. Yeah. But 219 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: so my thing with the Bengals it will continue to 220 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,079 Speaker 1: be are they mature enough to be able to get 221 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: this done because the division is right there for them 222 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: to take it. They just haven't wrapped their hands around it. 223 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 1: And taken. They're They're arguably the healthiest, most talented team 224 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 1: in the a f C North, right, So that begs 225 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: the question like who is going to win this the 226 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 1: mission book? I mean, look, I'm gonna go with to 227 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals because I think their talent is superior to 228 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 1: the others. And if Joe Burrow and j Mar Chase 229 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 1: and Tee Higgins and tell the Boy can figure this 230 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 1: thing out, I think they're good enough in the passing 231 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 1: game to run out to some leaves and then it 232 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: comes down to Joe mixing in the defense taking care 233 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: of business. But give me the Bengals. Look at the 234 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 1: Ravens are sitting there in first place, but they are 235 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,199 Speaker 1: so decimated by injuries. I can't go with them, and 236 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: their schedule is brutal coming down the stretch. So to me, 237 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying about Joe Burrow. That'd be 238 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: the quarterback I'd want to get behind. But when I 239 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 1: look at complete rosters when they're healthy, the Cleveland Browns 240 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: are not. Right now, I'm gonna ride with them. I've 241 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,080 Speaker 1: been riding with them all year long, and I just 242 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 1: believe if they can get the tight ends back they 243 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: get the backs back and you get into some of 244 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,679 Speaker 1: these key games coming down the stretch. Myles Garrett has 245 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 1: shown he can take over a football game. There's nobody 246 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 1: else in his division can do what he can do 247 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 1: to dominate. And you saw Clowney come into life a 248 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: little bit yesterday as well. So I'm gonna stick with 249 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 1: the Brownies. This has been a long journey. Don't let 250 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: me down, Cleveland. Yeah, and I'm thinking about on Garrett 251 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: that one play where I guess the strip, the sack, 252 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: the recovery and returns it for the score like we 253 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,559 Speaker 1: used to call the just the recovery. The trifecta does 254 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:12,959 Speaker 1: like some sort of quad situation six points. So here's 255 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 1: the thing with the team. Each team in this division 256 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 1: still has two division games remaining of their final four, 257 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 1: but for the Ravens, the other two games against the 258 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: Packers and the Rams, they have the toughest stretch and 259 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: they probably have the biggest challenge just from a health standpoint, 260 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: with Lamar Jackson now dealing with some sort of ankle 261 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 1: injury here and in addition to the other issues they've 262 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,679 Speaker 1: been dealing with all year, both in running back depth 263 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,079 Speaker 1: and then cornerback depth. I guess my answer here is um, 264 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 1: not the Ravens. I don't know who's gonna win. Anybody 265 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 1: want to throw a card? You know, the Steelers have 266 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 1: the ring here to this thing. I don't know, man, 267 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:48,199 Speaker 1: this is gonna be a fun division to watch like 268 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: That's that's the bright side of this whole thing. Twenty 269 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 1: three and five now after Sunday Night Football, as we 270 00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,439 Speaker 1: welcome you back to this Monday edition to move the 271 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: stick spread with Daniel Jeremiah, Bucky Brooks here with the 272 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 1: Elite eight and uh, it's nice to lead a life 273 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: with no regret, like Aaron Rodgers here in his ownership 274 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: of the Chicago Bears. It's one thing to say it, DJ, 275 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 1: it is another thing to prove it as we continue 276 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 1: using regrets or lack there off for some teams and 277 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,200 Speaker 1: some players here in our lad A category here. Yeah, 278 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any regrets whatsoever, he said as much. 279 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,199 Speaker 1: You don't have to regret making a statement like that 280 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: when you know, not only are you better than anything 281 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 1: they can put out there, but you're supporting cast is 282 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: going to be able to help you as well. And 283 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 1: there's no answer for Davante Adams so when I know 284 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 1: I can get a completion anytime I want to seventeen 285 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:38,439 Speaker 1: when you get down to the goal line and he 286 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: can sell a fade like that and cross dudes up. 287 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, no regrets whatsoever for Aaron Rodgers, I'm with 288 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 1: him on that. Onelievable. On the flip side, for the 289 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:52,680 Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers, absolutely no regrets in signing Russell Douglas 290 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,079 Speaker 1: off the Cardinals practice squad earlier. Remember he had the 291 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: interception against the Cardinals right that that helps conceal that 292 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,319 Speaker 1: game and what an interception return for a touchdown pick 293 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: six and back to back games. This is guy who's 294 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: the third round pick of the Eagles back in seventeen, 295 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 1: and it bounced around this year. This is fourth different team. 296 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 1: I'm talking about the Raiders, the Cardinals, he was with 297 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,680 Speaker 1: the Texans, and now here with the Green Bay Packers, 298 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 1: and like, thank goodness they haven't because they've been without 299 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 1: JayR Alexander for much of this season and he has 300 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 1: been a terrific player. I think it's like it's a 301 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: great case study for players finding the right fit with 302 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 1: a team because he's been a terrific player. It is 303 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: all about the right fit because that's how you played 304 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: in West Virginia. He was a ball magny, did a 305 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 1: great job. What was in the scouting report unbelievable ball 306 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:39,320 Speaker 1: skills exclamation point, exclamation point, exclamation point three times. And 307 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: that scouting report you wrote there on Russell Douglas. It 308 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:43,720 Speaker 1: has paid off here for the Packers, no doubt. Okay, 309 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 1: So I have no regrets for the Raiders stopping on 310 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: the Chiefs logo because you have no Sorry, I'm sure 311 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 1: he didn't fire them up. It didn't have any impact 312 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 1: on the game. Janni King Gockway run out to the 313 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: middle field and just stopping on it. This had no 314 00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: impact on the game, none at all. Like just seeing 315 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 1: all those guys here. I'm sure no one in the 316 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: Chief's organization had any idea that the Raiders decided to 317 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: stop on the logo, just like they didn't know that 318 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 1: they took a victory left around the stadium last year. 319 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: It had no impact on the game. I'm sure the 320 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,560 Speaker 1: Raiders will continue to do this practice because it paid 321 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 1: off the world in the future. Do you think there 322 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 1: was somebody in that Raiders little gaggle that was kind 323 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 1: of slowly following Unique and Gay. It was like I love. 324 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: This is not a good idea. Let's not. Are we good? Okay? 325 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: First of all, I love the support staffer. You saw 326 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 1: he saw the players, and you saw somebody. I don't 327 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 1: think it was a coach, but support staffer like waving 328 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 1: it on, like waving on the fans, like, dude, you're 329 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 1: not playing. Okay. First of all, going to logan was 330 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 1: a dumb idea. Second of all, you're trying to do. 331 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 1: This is no good I do want to kind of 332 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: address one thing though, get the camera here and just 333 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 1: address before we started the show today. NFL now is 334 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 1: Andrew Siciliano found a move the six logo and he 335 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 1: was jumping up and down on and talking all kinds 336 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 1: of trash. And we're not standing for it. Man. I'm 337 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: just letting you know right now, we're not logo stuff. 338 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 1: I mean, that's something i'd expect from Kansas or one, 339 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 1: you know, one of that. But Andrew, really Celiano, yeah, stuff? 340 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:03,240 Speaker 1: Can I keep us going? You can? Please? All right? 341 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 1: I think the Denver Broncos and VIC fan you have 342 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 1: no regrets about sticking with Teddy Bridgewater. How well were 343 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: those chants saying, okay, gosh, do you go to Drew Lock. 344 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 1: You know, Teddy Bridgewater doesn't give effort on a turnover, 345 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 1: and now we gotta put him on the bench and 346 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 1: move on. Well, it turns out they know they're around 347 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 1: these guys every day, and Teddy gives them their best 348 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 1: chance to win, and the Broncos are right in the 349 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 1: thick of it. So having the patients there, I think 350 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 1: that was a good move. No regrets for the Broncos 351 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 1: on that one, Yeah, No regrets for Mike McCarthy in 352 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 1: saying he was very confident that they were going to 353 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 1: go into Washington and get a win and all. He 354 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: only really needed to say after that when he had 355 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 1: the follow up question about the Bolton board material, like 356 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: you think this is gonna fire up Washington, he should 357 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 1: have been like, um see Colin Micah Parsons, Yes, I 358 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 1: am confident we are going to go into Washington and win. 359 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 1: The same feeling for Dak Prescott after he threw that 360 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 1: pick six to Cole Holcom kind of unexplicably under five 361 00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 1: minutes to go, letting Washington back into the game. I 362 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 1: sure he had some regret. He was like, oh my god, 363 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: I can't believe I threw that ball in this situation, 364 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 1: and then he gets back to the sideline, He's like, whoa, 365 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 1: no regrets. See Colin, Michael Parsons and Randy Gregory and 366 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: that Cowboys defense that has been a catalyst for their 367 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 1: success this season. They give everybody in that Cowboys organization 368 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 1: no regrets, no, no regrets. So I'm gonna stay in Texas. 369 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 1: But how about the Houston Texas No regrets starting Davis 370 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 1: Mills because this gives him, gives him an opportunity to 371 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: maybe look at the draft and go elsewhere. And set 372 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: of quarterback had a three on the yard game didn't 373 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: look bad. Mason plays, do you see a little touchdown? 374 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 1: And if he can play and manage the position, it 375 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 1: allows him some freedom and flexibility to do some other 376 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 1: things in the draft. So not a bad first start. 377 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: Let's see how it looks. Here's one for you real quick. 378 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 1: Could just on the on the Texas. I was with 379 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: Mark Ross on Game Day Live on Sunday and he 380 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 1: coined the new triplets for the Texas, the rookies, Davis Mills, 381 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: Nico Collins and Brevin Jordan's there you go. Maybe that 382 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: maybe a little too little signs of hopeless, little early 383 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 1: all right, I'm gonna go. Sometimes you make a decision, 384 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 1: you immediately, I have no regrets. Then given more time 385 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 1: to think about it, you go, In fact, maybe I 386 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 1: do something different Chase Claypool. It's been a few days now. 387 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 1: I've got to believe that now that he's had time 388 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: to think about it, see the tape, he might regret 389 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:20,960 Speaker 1: this a little bit, getting up, giving you the first down, 390 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,639 Speaker 1: your teammates trade turners, coming to help you try and 391 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 1: get the football. Now you're mad at him. I think, 392 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 1: in hindsight, a little distance has traveled between this moment. 393 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,439 Speaker 1: I would imagine there's at least a little hint of 394 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,439 Speaker 1: regret there on this one. Still a little cringe e 395 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 1: When I watched that, It's just like, yeah, no, that 396 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,159 Speaker 1: that one bothers me a little bit there. Okay, so 397 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,439 Speaker 1: if I'm chomping, I have no regrets about finally putting 398 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 1: Taston Mill in the quarterback and lett him be the 399 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: Wildcat playmaker that he really is. We saw him have 400 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 1: over two hundred total yards of office to be exact, 401 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 1: did a good job throwing it. But this is what 402 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 1: we've been waiting to see. Taston Mill score two touchdowns, 403 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: has seventy something yours on the ground. We see the 404 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,200 Speaker 1: big player on the sweep. This is the taste of 405 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,880 Speaker 1: here that everyone wanted to see. Why did it take 406 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 1: us so long? He was just kind of letting his 407 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 1: slow cook. But now is ready. Now we're ready for 408 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 1: the taste meals experience. Alvin Camara back Saints are in 409 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 1: the hunt in the NFC. I mean, like those final 410 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 1: couple of wild card spots are up for grabs there, 411 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 1: and maybe that maybe that kind of certainly helps when 412 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 1: you're playing the Jets, I guess, but that was the 413 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 1: elephant in the room there. I was gonna I saw 414 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 1: you kind of loading up. I see it near and 415 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:33,439 Speaker 1: all right back here with you all on this move 416 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,199 Speaker 1: the sticks. Monday here looking at the NFC playoff picture, 417 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 1: and you got two teams going at it on Monday night. 418 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 1: Football prominently featured here in the NFC, starting with the 419 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 1: team of the number one seed, best record in all 420 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 1: of football, that the Arizona Cardinals getting set to host 421 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 1: the Los Angeles Rams at number one wild card in 422 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,480 Speaker 1: second place in the NFC West there at eight and four. 423 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 1: It's a really fun game to get ready for here, 424 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 1: and it kind of goes back to a little bit 425 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 1: of what we saw from the Cardinals week one, right 426 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 1: when Nick to announced their presence, went into Nashville and 427 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 1: out physical the Tennessee Titans. See that again tonight against 428 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: the ramsact on the mentality, Yeah, that's what I'm looking for. 429 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 1: I want to see do they bring that same physical 430 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 1: presence they did it in the last meeting between these 431 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,440 Speaker 1: two teams. The Rams have struggle when teams have tried 432 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:17,960 Speaker 1: to get really physical with them. So are they gonna 433 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 1: be able to match up better in this contest? Last time, 434 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,120 Speaker 1: the Cardinals be able to run it down their throats. 435 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: I thought they took over the line of scrimmage. They've 436 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:26,120 Speaker 1: done that just about every big game they've played. Can 437 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:27,919 Speaker 1: they do it again? That's gonna be the key to 438 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 1: this game. You know, Chris Stapleton's got a strong h 439 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 1: that's h Stars coming out in l A. Well you 440 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 1: know big. You know he had a big clear sky 441 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,400 Speaker 1: in the desert too, So the Stars you need to 442 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: come out in Glendale, Arizona for the l A. Rams, 443 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 1: particularly on defense. That's Aaron Donald, that's Von Miller, that's 444 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey. They have to have a huge impact on 445 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 1: this game. Trying to slow down Kyler Murray, DeAndre Hopkins 446 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,879 Speaker 1: and all of the options that he has in that 447 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 1: offense has they have to be huge for the Rams 448 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:57,360 Speaker 1: to win this game here, but they have to be used. 449 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 1: But to me, this is all about Sean McVeigh and 450 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: which mcveiga is going to show the one that loves 451 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 1: the running game or the one that loves Matthew Stafford 452 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 1: and wants to drop back and for at five times. 453 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 1: If they run the football and their balanced, they can 454 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 1: get to the big plays that he desires because he'd 455 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,639 Speaker 1: force those guys to come into the box. But if 456 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 1: they try and throw it all over the yard and 457 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 1: allow Vance Joseph to heat them up like he's prone 458 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 1: to do, this could be an ugly performance for Matthew Stafford, 459 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 1: particularly with the turnovers that have popped up over the 460 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:27,400 Speaker 1: last part of the season. Are they equipped to still 461 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 1: be the Rams that kind of dominant ground team that 462 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,440 Speaker 1: we saw in their heyday with Todd Gurley And I 463 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 1: don't know if that offense, I don't know if they 464 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 1: can be his dominant. But Sony Michelle gives them a 465 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 1: bit of an option. He's not what Gurley was doing 466 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,919 Speaker 1: and say day. He's not what Kim Akers was a 467 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 1: year ago, but he can just be a solid player. 468 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 1: It's not really the yards, it's the attempts. They just 469 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,359 Speaker 1: need to try and run it to control the game 470 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 1: and keep them from ting off on Matthew Stafford. And 471 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 1: how about James Conner is one of the best free 472 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 1: agent acquisitions this year. I mean having a career resurgence. 473 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: That ball gets down inside the five, it's a touchdown. 474 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 1: It's his deal every time. And Chase Edmonds started to 475 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 1: get his way back from injured reserve as well. So 476 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,440 Speaker 1: Cardinals getting healthy at the right time after Kyler missed 477 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 1: some time. They're still number one. Seeing the NFC real 478 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 1: quick though, Bucks Cardinals, that'd be a nice one. I'm 479 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 1: just saying, what do you like? Uh? I didn't stutter. 480 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:21,880 Speaker 1: I said the Bucks, Bucky real quick comes. Okay, you're 481 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 1: the tiebreaker, Go ahead, Bucks, Okay, Bucks? Right now? I 482 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 1: had trust the more. I guess we'll see tonight. Maybe 483 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:31,400 Speaker 1: I can. I deferside for a little by week tune 484 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 1: up here, guys. Four teams on the by last bye 485 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 1: week here in the NFL, and you got a couple 486 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 1: of teams certainly in the mix with the Patriots leading 487 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,359 Speaker 1: the a f C Colts in there at the number 488 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 1: six seed, but the Eagles and Dolphins certainly not out 489 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:44,120 Speaker 1: of it, even though they're out of the structure as 490 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,880 Speaker 1: of right now. And DJ, let's talk about what the 491 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: Eagles needed to work on here in this bye week 492 00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 1: to remain in contingent. First of all, looking at their schedule, 493 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,400 Speaker 1: I think they've got a very good chance of getting 494 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 1: into the postseason here. They need to get Jalen Hurts 495 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:56,919 Speaker 1: back comfortable. He's gonna be back in the line up. 496 00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,399 Speaker 1: Gardner men, who did a nice job, was outstanding in 497 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,119 Speaker 1: his one game game. But they're going back to Jalen 498 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 1: Hurts just being a little more consistent with the easy throws, 499 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: with the layoups. If he makes layups, complimenting the run game, 500 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 1: they're gonna be fine. Yeah. Look, when when you think 501 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 1: about them, and it's all about Jalen Hurst's upgrading the 502 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 1: run game. But what I want to see is the 503 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,119 Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins and what the Dolphins can do with two. 504 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 1: Are talking about La coming out of the break in 505 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 1: terms of expanded upon this RPO package that has helped 506 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:24,159 Speaker 1: him when five straight games for those with two as 507 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 1: the starting quarterback. His pass rain has been over one 508 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 1: hundred in each of those games. But can we take 509 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:31,400 Speaker 1: it where you can push it down the field? I'll 510 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 1: say this, DJ said it. He's the r PO mester. 511 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:35,959 Speaker 1: I haven't seen anybody who can do this and get 512 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 1: it out of his hands as quick as two as about. 513 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 1: It's one of the reason why this offense looks a 514 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 1: little better with him into him. Yeah. For the Patriots 515 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,399 Speaker 1: here on a bye week, is the top seed in 516 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,400 Speaker 1: the a f C coming off a dominant victory over 517 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: the Bills. The only two nothing needs to happen is 518 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 1: with that stem machine in the training room, Like, make 519 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:59,160 Speaker 1: sure Damian Harris has you know, adequate usage for that hamstring. Right, 520 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 1: so we can keep thinking, I sin stem and advil. 521 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 1: Make sure all that stuff is stocked up and ready 522 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,719 Speaker 1: to go. And I mean, look, their team, who knows 523 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: who they are? Continue assessing that dominance with you asserting 524 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,439 Speaker 1: that dominance with your identity. I mean, like, is there 525 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 1: a glaring weakness? I mean you want to say they 526 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 1: don't push down the field a bunch, but that's not 527 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 1: who they are, right? Why? Why? Yeah? So, I mean 528 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 1: like they're in pretty good shape here, as we said 529 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: on the bye week, is a nice, nice break for them. 530 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: I feel like about four or five weeks ago um 531 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 1: the school administration issued the I D Card to the 532 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,679 Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts, and the Indianapose Colts know exactly who they are, 533 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:32,360 Speaker 1: so they just gotta come out and do what they've 534 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,840 Speaker 1: been doing. That's Carson Wentz for the most part. Take 535 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 1: care of the football. Jonathan Taylor, You're gonna rely on him. 536 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,439 Speaker 1: This offense runs through this ground game. You look at 537 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 1: the remaining schedule here, it's a big game coming up 538 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 1: against the Patriot. They run it against New England. That's 539 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:46,200 Speaker 1: what I'm wanting to see. I think they're gonna have 540 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 1: to give it a shot. I think they've got some 541 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,400 Speaker 1: physicality there. I think they're able to get that done. 542 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 1: And then defensively this front with the Forest Buckner and company, 543 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: they can take over games. Yeah. And by the way, 544 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 1: Kenny Moore has become one of the better corners in football, 545 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,119 Speaker 1: deserves probably lit bit more respect. Has been a big 546 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 1: play guy for him this year too. So they've got 547 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:05,879 Speaker 1: the talent to make it happen there. Take care of 548 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 1: the football and let Jonathan Taylor run that rock and 549 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:09,959 Speaker 1: that would be a fun game to watch right here 550 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,439 Speaker 1: on NFL Network Saturday at night, It's time for our 551 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 1: rookie report cards. Justin Fields nice first half. What do 552 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,440 Speaker 1: you think, DJ So? I want to give him a 553 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 1: B minus here. I love the ability of extend and 554 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 1: create some plays using his legs. In this game, there 555 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,680 Speaker 1: was obviously the turnovers. There are times we kind of 556 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:26,639 Speaker 1: locked on and forced the football, but I think overall 557 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,399 Speaker 1: good progress. I like where things are heading with Justin 558 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 1: Fields as it relates to some of these other young passers. Well, 559 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:33,719 Speaker 1: let's get a look at some of the other grades 560 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 1: that we handed out this week. So you see Justin 561 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,119 Speaker 1: Fields with the B minus. Davis Mills gets the B plus. 562 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,639 Speaker 1: D for Zack Wilson. Again, team struggles big part of 563 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:44,880 Speaker 1: that as well, saying goes for Trevor Lawrence, who gets 564 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 1: the F from you here, Bucky, and man, do we 565 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 1: have something to talk about here in Jacksonville. Bucky, Let's 566 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 1: start with you here, because I know you've been following 567 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 1: the Jags very closely. Obviously you've been handing out Trevor 568 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: Lawrences grades all week long or all year long. And 569 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 1: then this week we get Tom Pella Sero's report word 570 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,399 Speaker 1: about the dysfunction going on with Urban Meyer and the staff. 571 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 1: Issues within the staff, the assistant coaches, the players having 572 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,399 Speaker 1: issue with the way Urban's guiding this team. What is 573 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: going on right now? Oh, it's been a mess. It's 574 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 1: been a mess. I mean, I think what you have 575 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 1: is what no one wanted to see. When you have 576 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 1: a college coach taken NFL job, you have, uh, a 577 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:21,440 Speaker 1: little bit of a disconnect in terms of the way 578 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 1: business is done in the National Football League. You have 579 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 1: a staff that has a mixture of pro guys and 580 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 1: college guys, and what you see on the field is 581 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 1: a hodgepodge of philosophies and schematics that have impacted the players, 582 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,200 Speaker 1: namely the number one overall pick in Trevor Lawrence. And 583 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 1: so when you mess up the quarterback, everything springs from that. 584 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 1: And right now, Trevor Lawrence looks nothing like the quarterback 585 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 1: that we have held as a generational talent, one that 586 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:49,879 Speaker 1: we celebrated like Andrew Luck and John Elway. And so 587 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 1: a lot of this or all of this falls the 588 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 1: defeat of the hit coach because it doesn't look like 589 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 1: there's a plan in place to get him or the 590 00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:59,880 Speaker 1: rest of the team headed in the right direction. We look, 591 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 1: Irban Myers done nothing but win his whole life. When 592 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 1: you look at at Urban Urban, when he was at 593 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 1: Bowling Green, then to Utah, then you obviously go to 594 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 1: Florida and then Ohio State. Just win, win, win. But 595 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 1: when he took this job, there were some questions that 596 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 1: were out there at the time. And let me just 597 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:17,359 Speaker 1: kind of revisit these questions at that time. Number one, 598 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 1: how is he gonna handle losing? Just said, he's never 599 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 1: really done that before. How is he gonna be able 600 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 1: to handle that? Well? Not, Well, that's the answer we 601 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 1: have so far. This odd hodgepodge of a staff that 602 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,639 Speaker 1: he put together. They weren't his guys traveling with him 603 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:30,399 Speaker 1: from one job to the next. He wasn't able to 604 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,879 Speaker 1: even get the strength coach at Ohio State to come 605 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 1: with him. So all these new guys, how is that 606 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:37,360 Speaker 1: collection work? Well, it's been a complete and total failure. 607 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 1: And then the next thing, the question that existed was 608 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 1: he was a prolific recruiter, and in college, I'd rather 609 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,879 Speaker 1: have a great recruiter and a good coach versus the opposite. 610 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 1: And now you get to the NFL the playing fields level, 611 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,720 Speaker 1: there's no such recruiting advantage. We have a draft. Everything's equal, 612 00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:54,959 Speaker 1: there's parody. So now it really comes down to how 613 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,920 Speaker 1: well you can coach and manage games and manage the team. 614 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:01,199 Speaker 1: And that's been a complete failure. So all those questions 615 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 1: that were out there that existed, man, it has gone 616 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 1: the wrong way, and it has gone the wrong way fast. 617 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: The only thing that I'll add to the end of 618 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 1: that is when he was hired, much was made about 619 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 1: all the power he had. He had, all the personnel power, 620 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 1: the power with the staff, the roster, everything. The only person, 621 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 1: in my opinion, more powerful than him outside the owner, 622 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:20,439 Speaker 1: is this guy throwing the football here in Trevor Lawrence. 623 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 1: And once you lose him, now you could be in 624 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 1: trouble and this could be quickly over. It's a great point. 625 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 1: And so then how worried should we be about how 626 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 1: this stunts the development right now of Trevor Lawrence, a 627 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 1: guy you spent buckey, this immense capital on and a 628 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:37,639 Speaker 1: pick you don't ever in a position you don't ever 629 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 1: want to be in again. Number one overall, having to 630 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 1: take a quarterback. You know, at this at this point 631 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 1: how are you, you know, like, if your ownership and 632 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:47,360 Speaker 1: your management here, how are you what are you doing 633 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 1: like thinking about how this could affect Trevor Lawrence moving forward. 634 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,160 Speaker 1: Are you're very worried about it? You're very worried about 635 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 1: it because like this was a big deal to get 636 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence to come to Jacksonville. When you win the 637 00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 1: opportunity to get the number one pick, I mean, because 638 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 1: you've lost so much, like you think, and this is 639 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 1: a lottery ticket that is gonna allow you to cash 640 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,639 Speaker 1: in and kind of rebuild the franchise. Put you backed up. 641 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 1: But I feel like Jacksonville has taking a lottery ticket 642 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 1: and they lost it on the way to cash it 643 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 1: into the cashier's think. So now what you're looking at 644 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 1: is a team that doesn't have a management plan. And 645 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 1: it's really been like this from the time to Trevor 646 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,359 Speaker 1: Lawrences stepped in. You had debates inside the building where hey, 647 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:25,119 Speaker 1: we wanted to play traditional NFL quarterback versus doing some 648 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: of the stuff that he did really really well at Clemson. 649 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 1: And we have seen the new way to get young 650 00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 1: quarterbacks going is to meet them halfway. It's a combination 651 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 1: of what they did in college versus what you want 652 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:37,880 Speaker 1: to ask them to do in the pros, and each 653 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 1: and every year evolves. Well, now Trevor Lawrences back at 654 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 1: square one because he's not doing any of that, and 655 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 1: he is struggling in the offense that they have them 656 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 1: in the last thing. As we move on here, Robert 657 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 1: Sala had the second pick, Remer the first pick. Both 658 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 1: guys are losing in a big way. Robert sal the 659 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 1: way he's handled himself. Look Whatevermyer did at the end 660 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: of that ball game, even going out and sail the 661 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 1: handshake with Mike Rabel, guy he's known for a long time. 662 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 1: That shows you the different seen somebody who understands where 663 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 1: they're at in the process in a building phase, versus 664 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 1: somebody who's completely and completely misguided with what he was 665 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 1: getting himself into. Told you, guys, ways to build culture, love, toughness, 666 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 1: and team. I don't know, as Tom reported, calling all 667 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 1: your assistant coaches losers in the staff meeting, Love, toughness 668 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: and team. That's that's so for three on that one 669 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 1: right there. As the Jaguars are trying to figure this 670 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 1: thing out. Moving forward, Seattle Seahawks gotta win this week 671 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 1: over the Houston Texans, but it's been a struggle this season, 672 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 1: and again bringing up talk about Russell Wilson's future in Seattle, 673 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 1: about Pete Carroll's future in Seattle, and mean Rap reports 674 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 1: saying trade talks. Expect to hear more of that kind 675 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:46,440 Speaker 1: of discussion in this offseason as we heard this last offseason. Bucky, 676 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 1: what do you make of the situation in Seattle here 677 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 1: moving forward? Well, look, it's it's not what the Seattle 678 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 1: Seahawks anticipated or wanted. They thought that they would have 679 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 1: a much better team. They thought with Jamal Adams and 680 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 1: the defense and everything, they would get it going. But 681 00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 1: it's not where they are right now. Here's the thing. 682 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 1: Just who years left on Russell Wilson's deal, That about 683 00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 1: fifty one million dollars, And look, he's the best option 684 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 1: that they can find at quarterback. And so I believe 685 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 1: John Snit and just they have to have to figure 686 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: out a way to kind of make it right with 687 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:16,200 Speaker 1: the pieces that they have, because if you lose Russell Wilson, 688 00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 1: you're not going to get upgrade end return, particularly looking 689 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 1: at the quarterback club. Well, if you're wondering what the 690 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 1: future looks like, then look at the team right now 691 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 1: because this is their team. They don't have any picks, 692 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 1: they don't have any money, so they're not gonna be 693 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:31,040 Speaker 1: able to upgrade the roster around Russell Wilson, which to me, 694 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 1: he's the only asset that they have. So I don't 695 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 1: I look at a rebuild. I don't see how this 696 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 1: is anything other than a rebuild. I don't see Pete 697 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: Carroll being there for a rebuild process, and I don't 698 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 1: see Russell Wilson wanting to stick around to be a 699 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 1: part of a slow rebuild. He's the asset. To me. 700 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: I think he's gone after this year. I really do. 701 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 1: And I think you have a new coach and it 702 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: is a reset button in Seattle. That's kind of interesting. 703 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 1: I mentioned they just beat the Texans. Are they all 704 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 1: that different from the situation that Houston's in right now 705 00:30:57,440 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 1: with like their major I mean, obviously they're different, you know, 706 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 1: extenuating circumstances at the quarterbacks, but it's like the only 707 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 1: major asset. The only difference is the age. I mean, 708 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 1: the Shawn Watson thing. Obviously that's it. You don't sit man, 709 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 1: he has got plenty more in front of him as 710 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 1: a player. Man, real interesting and very tough decisions that 711 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 1: are gonna be half to made in Seattle here this 712 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 1: year to try to figure out where this organization charts 713 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 1: its path now moving forward. But we've got a great 714 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 1: game tonight here of between the Cardinals and the Rams 715 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 1: on Monday Night. Two more episodes and Move the Sticks 716 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 1: coming up for you later this week for Bucky and 717 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 1: dj Imrett. Will see you next month.
