00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,920
Speaker 1: Daunton's night so far for the Lakers, the twenty twenty

19
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: five twenty twenty six NBA MVP now has twenty seven.

20
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 1: Midway through the second quarter, Lakers have a fifty seven

21
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 1: to fifty three lead over the Clippers. It was a

22
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 1: twenty four point first quarter for Luca, who then sat

23
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 1: for the first half of the second quarter before coming

24
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,759
Speaker 1: in just a few minutes ago. Crown them.

25
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 3: You're just crowning them already. September twenty fifth Brid album.

26
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,960
Speaker 1: This is how you win the NBA MVP. You get

27
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,199
Speaker 1: out to a big lead in the beginning and you coast.

28
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 1: That's how you do it. He's not in the lead though,

29
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: That's how you do a stir. But he's getting the

30
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 1: medal by the beginning of January. Jason, you're a fan.

31
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,320
Speaker 1: What do you know about the lead? I could because

32
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 1: we blow them at the end. I lead, then we bought.

33
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 1: This will not be a lead that Luca blows. We

34
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,319
Speaker 1: will blow the leads. That's all it's gonna happen.

35
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 3: We play a one point game to spite all his heroics.

36
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: Okay, so he's a ball hawk, right, wow, you just

37
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 1: you're just about you're flailing for a hot take on Luca.

38
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: You're just that last eight seconds. I didn't like it.

39
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 3: Gotta get the other teammates involved a lot of standing

40
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 3: around and ball watching.

41
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: You know, That's what I thought. Will Chamberlain's teammates let

42
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 1: him down that hundred point night. Where's anybody else open

43
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,960
Speaker 1: for a shot? Where were the fun to score that game?

44
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: One hundred and one to eighty seven?

45
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean they still had a margin of victory here.

46
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 3: I mean, this is this is a much I mean,

47
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 3: you gotta get the victory and then we extole the

48
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 3: virtues of a massive scoring night. But if you lose,

49
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 3: you're James Harden.

50
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 1: We'll keep you updated on this game. Fifty five points

51
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 1: James Harden. Fifty five James Harden. Yeah, and a rare

52
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:39,640
Speaker 1: Clipper win high James Harden. So we'll keep you updated

53
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,799
Speaker 1: on this game. Tons of fun so far. Again, still

54
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:43,640
Speaker 1: about three and a half minutes to go before halftimes.

55
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I mean, because it's this is the glory.

56
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 3: If it's starting at eight fifteen in our time, is

57
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 3: gonna keep going.

58
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 1: You know, it's a game that people on the East

59
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 1: Coast are gonna wake up to my morning, Go man,

60
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: Luca had a sixty point night. Oh it was too later.

61
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,119
Speaker 1: I'd have watched it. People are gonna say, too later,

62
00:02:58,160 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 1: I to watch.

63
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 3: One subscribed to Peak Eye two. If it matters that

64
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 3: much to.

65
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 1: You, it doesn't matter about. It doesn't matter subscribing to Peacock.

66
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: It's staying up, Okay, people still have people stay, people

67
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,360
Speaker 1: to get up. And since the morning tomorrow is a holiday,

68
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,799
Speaker 1: people for a lot of me. But this, but this

69
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: is something they do all the time, all the games

70
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 1: when they do Coast to Coast Knights, all the games

71
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 1: beginningt eight o'clock. This is not just you're also.

72
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 3: Talking like a responsible holiday.

73
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: I think you'd be surprised viewership of sports, sporting events,

74
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:29,839
Speaker 1: especially something that happens every night.

75
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 3: The number of well, you know, hey six a cup night.

76
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 1: It is cuts the battle for l A. I don't

77
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 1: know if anybody knew it was a cup night.

78
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 3: He's really kind of nights Retinas.

79
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: And here we are league games smoky put zero market,

80
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 1: zero market zero.

81
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 3: I mean, at least it isn't the fire red that

82
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 3: makes me feel like I've descended to the fifth ring

83
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 3: of hell.

84
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: What what if I were to tell you guys that

85
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 1: this game hasn't even tipped yet? WHOA we're seeing I'm

86
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: watching an AI version of it.

87
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 3: I mean I do like the SpongeBob yellow on the court.

88
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 3: I mean that's good.

89
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 1: No, listen to Crypto under the seat. So again we'll

90
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: keep you updated on this game throughout the night. Again,

91
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:18,479
Speaker 1: really entertaining game so far. Maybe lucascoes sixty tonight. But

92
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 1: we are getting said for three big games on Thursday

93
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: in the NFL, all with big time playoff implications. So

94
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: let's take a look at all of them right now.

95
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 1: We'll go and show order. We'll go and order. You're

96
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 1: gonna wake up and watch. Is Joe Burrow who says,

97
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,359
Speaker 1: I like I like playing on Thanksgiving because his memories

98
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 1: of growing up or waking up watching the Lions play,

99
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford throwing for four hundred yards and the Lions losing.

100
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,839
Speaker 1: So let's start with Packers lines. I would love to

101
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 1: be able to pick the Packers in this. But Dan

102
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 1: Campbell sort of hit the nail on the head a

103
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,840
Speaker 1: bit today when he talked about their start seven and four,

104
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,280
Speaker 1: not quite what it was last She said, Listen, last

105
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 1: year was great, but this year maybe we realize we

106
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 1: got to fight for it a little bit more, because

107
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: clearly for the Lions it is all mental. It feels

108
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 1: like it's all mental for them because you see the talent,

109
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,840
Speaker 1: what they can do at a drop, how talented Jamier

110
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: Gibbs is how talented that offense is at home on Thanksgiving.

111
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: The Packers are prone to putting up stinkers every couple

112
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,159
Speaker 1: of weeks. I know they have the better record coming in.

113
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,719
Speaker 1: This is a Lions win. This is the Lions offense

114
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,280
Speaker 1: showing up on Thursday and being too big of an

115
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: animal for the Packers to keep up with. Again, Jordan

116
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 1: Love is just sometimes dynamic. Sometimes he's just a guy.

117
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: And he has too many games of Wow. Sixteen for

118
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 1: twenty five fo one hundred and seventy one yards and

119
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 1: no touchdowns, Like, he has too many games like that,

120
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:46,839
Speaker 1: and I think Thursday is one of those games for

121
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 1: Jordan Love. Give me the Lions. Give me the Lions big,

122
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,280
Speaker 1: a big offensive performance by Detroit. They get to eight

123
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:52,599
Speaker 1: and four.

124
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 3: He's at twenty five hundred yards for the year, fifteen

125
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 3: touchdowns against three picks. He's gone without a touchdown in

126
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:00,919
Speaker 3: three of his last four starts.

127
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:02,839
Speaker 1: Two and two.

128
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 3: Record Giants win and Vikings win obviously this past week.

129
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 3: But you also look at a guy who's gone sub

130
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 3: two hundred yards four of his last six starts. Along

131
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 3: the way the fits and starts, he got a great

132
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 3: effort out of Emmanuel Wilson. You might need him again,

133
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 3: so for fantasy purposes before your waivers expired tonight, just

134
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 3: go see maybe he was still floating out there because

135
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 3: Josh Jacob's still a question mark for this one. But

136
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:31,479
Speaker 3: that offense has been too inconsistent, and even pressure pressures

137
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 3: are a great category. Are you getting home? Are you

138
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 3: getting home? And for Jared Golfing Company, he's not been

139
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,279
Speaker 3: necessarily special either. The loss of the portal, while he's

140
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 3: not been a beast, certainly does change the complexion of

141
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 3: the offense where it's now becoming an awful lot of

142
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:51,040
Speaker 3: I'm on Ross Saint Brown and Jamior Gibbs, Like, there's

143
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 3: a lot of guys that are bystanders running wind sprints

144
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 3: right now for that squad. So while I don't have

145
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:01,120
Speaker 3: full faith and confidence in the Lions, I have more

146
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,480
Speaker 3: so than I do of the packers.

147
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 1: The packers are tough to be confident in because they'll

148
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 1: show you something one week and you go, Wow, that's

149
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 1: really good, and Micah Parsons love a big week and

150
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: then next week you go, what the hell is that?

151
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 1: That's it? Like, what the hell is that?

152
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 4: Man?

153
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, because the last two wins are against the Giants

154
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 3: and the Vikings. You beat who's on the schedule, that's fine.

155
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 3: But they didn't exactly win either of those games with

156
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 3: style points.

157
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 1: No, they show up flat a lot, and they sort

158
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 1: of I don't want to say talent their way by,

159
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 1: but it's not. It's not to the point of they

160
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 1: show up flat and they and they give it in

161
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 1: fear efforts. They show flat and it's just enough, and

162
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: it really surprises you that that this is the effort

163
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 1: you get from them. I have a pretty good feeling

164
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get a better effort from the Lions at

165
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 1: home on Thanksgiving.

166
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 3: Revenge game for Week one. Go back to a twenty

167
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 3: seven thirteen Green Bay win.

168
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 1: Chiefs send the Cowboys. Maybe forty five million people will

169
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 1: watch this game.

170
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 3: This one's bag, right, the two.

171
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 1: Biggest games we've seen the last five regular season games,

172
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 1: the last five Cowboys Giants on Thanksgiving in twenty twenty

173
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 1: two and twenty twenty four. Right, forty two million, thirty

174
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 1: eight million, Right, Yes, Giants are a bit. This is

175
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: when the Giants were terrible. This is the Giants suck like.

176
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 1: This is not ay Giants. The Giants sucked and it's

177
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,320
Speaker 1: not like the Cowboys are great either, But this is

178
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 1: Cowboys Chiefs, both teams incredibly interesting, incredibly fun Thanksgiving. This is,

179
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 1: without a doubt, gonna be the highest rated game of

180
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 1: the year in the NFL regular season. And it's not

181
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 1: gonna be close. It's gonna be twenty miles between this

182
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 1: game and whatever is number two. The entire world will

183
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 1: tune into Chiefs Cowboys, and you are going to see

184
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys eke out of victory at home in

185
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 1: a high scoring game. I'm gonna say Cowboys thirty eight,

186
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 1: Chiefs thirty five. A big day for a Homes. You

187
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 1: see a lot of highlights on the board. Mahomes comes

188
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 1: up big. But this Cowboys offense right now, coming off

189
00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:00,559
Speaker 1: that Eagles comeback, they are riding high. They are uns stoppable.

190
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 1: The Chiefs defense is not great. The Cowboys are running

191
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:07,080
Speaker 1: the football well, They're doing everything well offensively. They will

192
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 1: have enough to beat the Chiefs because right now I

193
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 1: have more confidence in the Cowboys offense than the Chiefs offense.

194
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 1: Chiefs still struggle a little bit too much, even though

195
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: Mahomes has been otherworldly this year. But give me the

196
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 1: Cowboys to get over the five hundred mark, drop the

197
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,839
Speaker 1: Chiefs to five hundred. I'll take the Cowboys at home

198
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 1: again the over under, and this is fifty two and

199
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 1: a half. You could put the over under at ninety

200
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 1: and I might still take the over for this game.

201
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,319
Speaker 3: That's like a lot of college games. Fifty two and

202
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 3: a half, the Cowboys getting three at home. You're looking

203
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 3: for the big Brandon Aubrey effect to chime in here.

204
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,320
Speaker 3: You look at seven touchdowns against two picks the last

205
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,840
Speaker 3: three weeks for Dak Prescott two and one record. Those

206
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,560
Speaker 3: the wins over Vegas and the Eagles, the loss going

207
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 3: back to Jacoby Brissett when that was the back to

208
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 3: back losses with one against Denver for the Chiefs. Moderately

209
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,280
Speaker 3: encourage you get the check go back now that he's

210
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,679
Speaker 3: great shakes, but the fact that they were able to

211
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 3: rely on the tucking into the gut of Kareem Hunt

212
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 3: with his thirty plus touches this last week, and he

213
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 3: actually had a couple of explosives in the pass passing game.

214
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 3: With Rashid Rice and Xavier Worthy still waiting, not Worthy

215
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,200
Speaker 3: to be a more consistent option, but for Rice to

216
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:24,440
Speaker 3: have an explosive player two is something that's been missing.

217
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 3: The intermediate and long passing game hasn't been there for

218
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 3: the For the Cowboys defense still a bit of a

219
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 3: step up in class, right. We watched it a little

220
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 3: bit obviously going from the Raiders. I mean, there's no

221
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,440
Speaker 3: way to go but up. They fired Chip Kelly. They

222
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 3: were averaging fifteen points per game, So yeah, anything's better,

223
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 3: even if the Eagles are grossly inconsistent and still an

224
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,680
Speaker 3: enigma and all of those things that we talk about,

225
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 3: the conundrum, enigma, chaos theory of what they've got going on.

226
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take the Chiefs on the road to win

227
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 3: this one because of those explosives get home in the secondary,

228
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 3: not necessarily needing to work from the run game, but

229
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,800
Speaker 3: they'll do it enough to keep Quinn Williams in company occupied.

230
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 3: But they'll get enough explosives to get over the hump.

231
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 3: And Butcker versus versus Aubrey slight edge Aubrey, but Butker

232
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 3: sees the field more frequently.

233
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:25,719
Speaker 1: The nightcap the aforementioned Joe Burrow against Lamar Jackson and

234
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 1: the Ravens. This is a huge game for the Ravens.

235
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,199
Speaker 1: They're gonna push this as you're gonna tune in this game,

236
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 1: and you're gonna say so many times, you know. I

237
00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 1: know the Bengals are at three and eight, but they

238
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,319
Speaker 1: have the Steelers still, they have two.

239
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 3: Games against the Ravens. Else if they can win these.

240
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 1: Games, Joe Burrow is back, Ah, they can still do it.

241
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 1: And the crazy thing is it's not one hundred percent crazy.

242
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 1: They needed to win Sunday. Sunday was a big loss

243
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,679
Speaker 1: for them. That was really big. But Joe Burrow coming

244
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 1: back is gonna be the juice the Bengals need to win.

245
00:11:55,520 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 1: Mainly because we talked about this yesterday. Lamar Jackson is

246
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 1: not the same. He is maybe fifty percent of what

247
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,559
Speaker 1: he normally is. Watching him Sunday against the Jets, the

248
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 1: Jets were able to control him. He couldn't get outside.

249
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:12,080
Speaker 1: He has zero escapability right now. And whatever injuries he's

250
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 1: been dealing with, now you add the toe injury to it.

251
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 1: That he's on there for this week. It's a short week.

252
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 1: It's not gonna suddenly get better. I know the Bengals

253
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 1: defense is bad, but you saw the Ravens have trouble

254
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:24,680
Speaker 1: putting points up against the Jets. They had to rely

255
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 1: on two big pass interference penalties to put ten points

256
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 1: on the board, or they were punting, like that's how

257
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 1: bad the Jets were they so we're gonna come in penalties.

258
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:33,839
Speaker 1: Oh now you gave him points again. But it's not

259
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 1: about the Jets because they just think. But that's how

260
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 1: rough it was for the Ravens. Yes, they've won a

261
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 1: bunch of games in a row now, but they're not

262
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 1: trending up and Lamar Jackson has banged up. Give me

263
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 1: the Bengals on the field winning this game now.

264
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 3: I like the cut of your jib because I was

265
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 3: kind of leaning that way my own self. Plus six

266
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 3: and a half on the road for this one fifty two,

267
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 3: So we're expecting some fireworks at all three of these games.

268
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 3: Forty eight and a half fifty two and a half

269
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:02,680
Speaker 3: fifty two. I ask you this, if we were to

270
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 3: make them both video game characters, this might actually show

271
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,679
Speaker 3: up as part of the Peacock coverage and NBC coverage.

272
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 3: Who has the better power bar and is more close

273
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,079
Speaker 3: to one hundred percent? Is it Joe Burrow coming off

274
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 3: his long standing injury from Lamar.

275
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:22,160
Speaker 1: Jackson at this point? Oh wow, man, it is it

276
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 1: is really, I mean, you watch you watch Lamar Jackson play.

277
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:27,839
Speaker 1: I don't know how many people watch the Ravens and

278
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:29,959
Speaker 1: the Jets. But again, remember I watched bad football. That's

279
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 1: out to But if you saw Lamar Jackson play in

280
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 1: the first half, you would say, how is he in

281
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 1: the game? Like it looked like he was playing at

282
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 1: three quarter speed? Like okay, I'm just out here to

283
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,199
Speaker 1: run the offense in a scrimmage. I should have the

284
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 1: red jersey on for no contact. That's what he looked like,

285
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 1: and it was. It was stunning to watch. Well, but

286
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:49,880
Speaker 1: go back to that game against the Browns. You've got

287
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 1: short yardage situations, You've got big gutta habit moments.

288
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 3: What are they doing? They're calling running plays with Mark Andrews. No,

289
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,320
Speaker 3: it's a great trick play and one you didn't anticipate.

290
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 3: But you're bringing him in in short yardage because Dereck

291
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 3: Henry is not of your shorts, your short yardage guy,

292
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 3: even though he's had what three three pretty good performances over.

293
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:09,560
Speaker 1: The last month.

294
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 3: Here's a stat I just thought I'd run past, you know,

295
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 3: T Higgins for this one. With the concussion last five games,

296
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 3: Jamar Chase against the Bay against the Ravens, thirty seven

297
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 3: catches in a row in a row, five hundred and

298
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 3: eighty four yards, seven touchdowns. The last one without t

299
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 3: Higgins had eleven receptions was near two hundred yards. So

300
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 3: go feast against that secondary. Kyle Hamilton and then several

301
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 3: other members of that secondary banged up as well.

302
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 1: Exit ab out of Fresco, Exit swallend dopes. There you go.

303
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 1: There's our picks for Thanksgiving Day. We'll have more NFL

304
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:49,000

326
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 1: cl Hippers sixty nine to sixty six. Not a lot

327
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 1: of defense in the first half, certainly not on Luca

328
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 1: Luka Doncic thirty two points in the first half. He

329
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 1: had twenty four in the first quarters over seconteen. Well

330
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 1: he actually second, I should say he sat out the

331
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 1: first six minutes the second quarter. Lazy, all those shuts.

332
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 1: You need some time.

333
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,440
Speaker 3: He need some water man, I gotta rest. Get that

334
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 3: ice pack on.

335
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,600

Speaker 1: de say, you will have more details coming up with

337
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 1: what's trending in a few minutes. But the latest college

338
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 1: football playoff pole is out and now we are officially

339
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 1: in the bid stealing NCAA tournament portion of the college

340
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 1: football calendar, joining us now in the hotline. Nobody better

341
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 1: than the owner, editor, proprietor of College Footballnews dot com.

342
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 1: All the previews, all the prognostications, all the breakdowns. He's

343
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 1: here to tell you what teams are in danger even

344
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 1: though they look like they could make it of not

345
00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 1: making the College Football Playoff. It is Pete few Tech

346
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 1: if he what's happening? Man?

347
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:06,040
Speaker 4: I mean you could drive yourself crazy because like you

348
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,959
Speaker 4: could pretty much get the eleven and zero teams are fine.

349
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 4: Everyone else though there's a case to be made that

350
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 4: on the wrong day they can all be kind of hosed.

351
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,919
Speaker 6: So like Alabama, you.

352
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 1: Could get hosed, right Alabema, I mean really, Oh if.

353
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,679
Speaker 4: They lose to if they lose Tuburn, they're out. You know,

354
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 4: so Sartolets, you know somehow they miraculously someone gay, but

355
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:34,719
Speaker 4: they're out. Like if BYU wins the Big Twelve Championship,

356
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:38,440
Speaker 4: this thing goes haywire, because then Bama had better win

357
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 4: the SEC championship. And if by you and Alabama both

358
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 4: win their respective conference championships, Notre Dames out and then

359
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 4: like what do you do if Georgia Tech beats Georgia

360
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 4: because twenty three Georgia Tech tenant two, number four Georgia

361
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 4: tenant two.

362
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:57,920
Speaker 6: You know, everyone's arguing Miami.

363
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,120
Speaker 4: Notre Dame right now, head to head.

364
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 6: Wealf it just happened, and like.

365
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:02,399
Speaker 4: What do you do then? So there's a whole lot

366
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 4: of funky stuff that can still happen, but it's probably

367
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 4: all gonna go chalk. It's probably gonna be easy. And

368
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 4: then you know, we get Ohio State winning the national championship.

369
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I got one for you, Pete. You didn't

370
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 1: bring up if Michigan beats Ohio State Saturday. Don't they

371
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,000
Speaker 1: have to be in regardless of what happens in the

372
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 1: Big Ten Championship.

373
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 6: There's so much traffic ahead of them.

374
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 4: I mean, first of all, they can if they do this,

375
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,879
Speaker 4: there's still a path I think it's that they need.

376
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 4: If Washington beats Oregon, then they're in the Big Ten

377
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 4: Championship at that point, and then they can play their

378
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:36,239
Speaker 4: way into this.

379
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 6: Now.

380
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 4: I kind of don't think it's going to happen either way.

381
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,880
Speaker 4: But you know, it's crazy to say everyone every competently

382
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:46,400
Speaker 4: forgets that last year's Michigan team could not complete a forward.

383
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:48,480
Speaker 1: Path and they go on, Yeah, as ben As Price

384
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:50,920
Speaker 1: Underwood's been like that. Last year was even worse.

385
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,640
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, it's literally I mean I completely actually forgotten

386
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,919
Speaker 4: til I live again, Like, oh yeah, that's right. They

387
00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 4: only won like like they gave like three yards of

388
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 4: little offense and once thirteen to ten, like it was

389
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 4: like the weirdest thing, like yeah, it's not crazy if this,

390
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,679
Speaker 4: you know, look, go house. It hasn't beating anybody. They

391
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 4: haven't beaten a team that's gonna go bowling, and you

392
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 4: give less Penn State wins this week and like over

393
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:18,280
Speaker 4: a month. I mean, look at their schedule and the

394
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,440
Speaker 4: Texas at the beginning, and they haven't any drawer release

395
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 4: since August. So I let's.

396
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:24,800
Speaker 6: See what they can do.

397
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 4: And they're under a little bit of pressure here, Yeah.

398
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 3: But even better chaos theory. Lane Kiffin leaves on Saturday.

399
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 3: How many spots is he worth? Because they already pushed

400
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 3: him behind Oregon, saying that Oregon's win over USC was

401
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 3: like some benchmark win that they needed to achieve, Like

402
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:42,879
Speaker 3: really that was that's what we're doing.

403
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 4: Come on, I'll argue this if let's say Kiffin decides

404
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 4: that he's gone, Okay, they beat Mississippi State, all right, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay,

405
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 4: then you know they're in no matter what, they're not

406
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 4: gonna pell it. But let's say they lose to Mississippi State,

407
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,719
Speaker 4: like it's the bowl that the state's got guys on scholarship.

408
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,280
Speaker 4: You know, that's a dangerous team. You know this, No,

409
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,359
Speaker 4: miss isn't that great. I mean, it could possibly happen.

410
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 4: And then Kiffin says he's gone to LSU all of

411
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 4: a sudden. If you're the committee, it's kind of like,

412
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:14,720
Speaker 4: remember a couple of years ago in Florida State lost

413
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:18,679
Speaker 4: quarterback Jordan Trevitt. That factors in. You got a factor in.

414
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:21,440
Speaker 4: Wait a minute, you don't you're head coach anymore. That's

415
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:26,000
Speaker 4: that factors into this whole thing, so that it's ugly.

416
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,159
Speaker 4: I mean, if you're Kiffin, I mean, he's fine, this

417
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 4: is business, this is the life we've chosen. I'm fine

418
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,359
Speaker 4: with it. But if you're going to go to LSU

419
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:37,159
Speaker 4: or Florida or the Giants or wherever, you gotta at

420
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 4: least play it out. You gotta just say, okay, after

421
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:42,600
Speaker 4: the college football playoff in a month, you got me.

422
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:43,800
Speaker 6: You know you can.

423
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 4: You're laying Kiff and you can dictate the terms however

424
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:49,160
Speaker 4: you want to say, Yeah, I'm taking off, I'm gonna

425
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,880
Speaker 4: make the bazillion dollars, but after the playoff. Otherwise that's

426
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,439
Speaker 4: just not American. That's just wrong. You know. If you're

427
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 4: leaving these guys before the playoff.

428
00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 1: Well, here's what I think is why this is the

429
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:01,919
Speaker 1: day after the Egg Bowl, And I'll tell you exactly

430
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 1: why I think he's gone. No matter what I think

431
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,520
Speaker 1: he's I think he's leaving right whether it's LSU for

432
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:10,159
Speaker 1: that offer, Florida, I think he's gone. But why the

433
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,840
Speaker 1: day after the Egg Bowl? If they win, Lane Kiff

434
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 1: and it's going to be announced he's going to be

435
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 1: going to LSU or Florida, but he's staying through the

436
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 1: playoff because this is new territory we have and this

437
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 1: is what it's going to be like. Coach for teams,

438
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 1: poaching coaches, you have to understand they're going to stay

439
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,880
Speaker 1: through the playoff when they're there. So they win, it's

440
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 1: announced that he's going. He's gonna stay through the playoff,

441
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 1: but lose to Mississippi State and maybe be out and

442
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 1: then it's you're fired and you're out right now, and

443
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 1: you're done, and we're going to figure stuff out. So

444
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 1: I wonder if if he loses the Egg Bowl, they're

445
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 1: going to at least gain a little bit of you're fired,

446
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:48,160
Speaker 1: you want out now, we're firing you losing the egg Bowl.

447
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:51,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's no way to do this, right. I mean, look,

448
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 4: Eric Morris, the North Texas head coach, just took the

449
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,800
Speaker 4: Oklahoma State job Oklahoma State playoffs to saying.

450
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,200
Speaker 6: Hey, we got a coach who but he's coaching.

451
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,399
Speaker 4: North Texas through what ever is happening next, whether it

452
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 4: be the American Conference Championship, the bowl game, whatever, he's

453
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,119
Speaker 4: I don't I get not coaching a bowl game, that's fine.

454
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 4: You got to move on. You got you know, transfer portals,

455
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 4: all that happening, that's fine. The playoffs is a different

456
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 4: sort of thing. So yeah, it's I don't know why

457
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 4: they're doing this other than you're right, they wouldn't be

458
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:21,720
Speaker 4: doing this if he was staying you know it's it

459
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,120
Speaker 4: would be you announce it beforehand, everyone be fired up,

460
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 4: and oh miss well, our guys around you know, you're

461
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 4: unless he's just being reality start, you know, jerk weed

462
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,160
Speaker 4: here and he's gonna, you know, do a big reveal

463
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 4: with a hat. He's got to be gone, and good

464
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 4: luck to you.

465
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 6: You know.

466
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 4: Look, he's already on the hot seat at LSU. He

467
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 4: hasn't won a national championship there yet, so okay, then

468
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 4: he's in trouble.

469
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 1: Well, Pete, I want to throw this out there here.

470
00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,480
Speaker 1: You mentioned Oklahoma State. How much fun is it going

471
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 1: to be next year watching Drew Mestimaker playing at Oklahoma

472
00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:58,919
Speaker 1: State next year throwing touchdowns?

473
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:01,199
Speaker 4: Well, it can't be. He's gotta be more fun than

474
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:04,199
Speaker 4: this year, because man, it's stay bad. But yeah, you

475
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 4: know what, it's a good spot. You know, there's some

476
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,679
Speaker 4: guys who just you never know, you absolutely never know.

477
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 4: When you get a guy in a in a in

478
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,359
Speaker 4: a place who was talking about this before coming on

479
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 4: the air here, it's like, you know, I, you know,

480
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,160
Speaker 4: how is it not working at lane? Kiffen hasn't won

481
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:20,439
Speaker 4: twelve national titles at USC yet? And you know, I thought, whatever,

482
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 4: stat it just came up that like, in the same

483
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 4: period of game so far, Clay Helton actually had a

484
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 4: better record and won a conference title and you know

485
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 4: all that stuff, and it's just it seems like you

486
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 4: should do more if you're Lincoln Riley there, So you

487
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 4: just never know until you get a guy in the

488
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,640
Speaker 4: building and all of a sudden, it all takes off.

489
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:43,760
Speaker 3: And worse, Lincoln Riley one of those guys starting to

490
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 3: get crowned once again, and just like that, he got

491
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 3: punched in the face.

492
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 6: Well, so I'm making somebody gosh that team, like you.

493
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,479
Speaker 4: And I both said, I thought USU was gonna beat Oregon,

494
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,480
Speaker 4: I'm still not that soul order, but like, uh, big

495
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 4: guysh is there like a dumb penalty that couldn't make

496
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:04,640
Speaker 4: on Saturday. It's just they kept screwing up, and it's

497
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:07,680
Speaker 4: just you can't give that Oregon team the momentum. It

498
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,119
Speaker 4: just it was just a weird game all the way around.

499
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,360
Speaker 4: But USC should be better than that. It should be

500
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,439
Speaker 4: you know, you can make the argument that's the biggest

501
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,160
Speaker 4: name program to not be in the college football playoffs

502
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 4: during the sero, so it's it should be a little

503
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:23,080
Speaker 4: better than it is. But let's let's see what they

504
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,640
Speaker 4: do in UCLA. Let's see if they just come out

505
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 4: in fifty two to three m and you know, just okay,

506
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 4: that was fun and go from there.

507
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the thing Pete now is is Yes, there's

508
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,159
Speaker 1: so much to happen between now and the end of

509
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 1: the season. Look, I know, look, no, Tre Dame might

510
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:40,360
Speaker 1: not even be a lock for the playoff.

511
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:41,200
Speaker 4: No, they're not.

512
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 1: How much of that? How much of the reputations of

513
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,560
Speaker 1: the bigger schools, right like use Notre Dame for example,

514
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,120
Speaker 1: or Michigan if they wind up winning the game over

515
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:53,960
Speaker 1: Ohio State Saturday, how much of those it's a television show.

516
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 1: These teams are better in it, they won big games.

517
00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 1: How much is that going to play in their favor?

518
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:00,960
Speaker 1: Is it going to be like it is in the past,

519
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 1: where hey, the big market, the big teams that you know,

520
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,520
Speaker 1: they're going to get better sway than the others.

521
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:09,360
Speaker 4: I don't think so. Because the thing about the Collge

522
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 4: football playoff command I know this from the inside. If

523
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:15,640
Speaker 4: that were the case, no way they leave out because

524
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 4: Althema should have been in. That's your over SMU and

525
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 4: they didn't. So putting SMU in over Alabama okay, that

526
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:26,440
Speaker 4: kind of kills that, you know, But they honestly and

527
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:30,120
Speaker 4: they make mistakes. This last round of rankings is a

528
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:35,639
Speaker 4: total car crash. Uh, there's so many whiffs and inconsistencies

529
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 4: in there. But they're trying, They really are legitimately trying

530
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:43,399
Speaker 4: to come up with the best tournament possible. And again,

531
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 4: part of the issue is these are We've talked about

532
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,120
Speaker 4: this before. These are people with jobs. You know, these

533
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 4: are like they have lives and stuff. They don't sit

534
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 4: there and watch hot action on a Tuesday night.

535
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:59,400
Speaker 6: You know, they kind of you know, do they do

536
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:03,440
Speaker 6: real off and so they kind of payed no college football,

537
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 6: but they aren't quite as deep as.

538
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,879
Speaker 4: They probably should be in the theoretical side. So okay,

539
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:11,320
Speaker 4: and they but all they care about is is this

540
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 4: tournament the best possible? Because their thought is if the game,

541
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,159
Speaker 4: if the tournament's good and the games are good and

542
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:18,840
Speaker 4: the matchups are good, everything else falls into place.

543
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 3: Joe, I love the last couple of weeks when we

544
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 3: get them in front of the microphone to start giving

545
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 3: us a little tidnitch.

546
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:25,159
Speaker 4: Why can't do it?

547
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:25,560
Speaker 6: We can't.

548
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 4: It's like the two mysteries. It's twenty twenty five, and

549
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,639
Speaker 4: one we can't get cameras on the goal line of

550
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:34,480
Speaker 4: every football game imaginable. And two we don't have cameras

551
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 4: in on the process of them. But like, like, if

552
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 4: you can't justify your arguments for each of these spots,

553
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:43,159
Speaker 4: what are you doing? You know, why can't you just

554
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 4: we should be able to see the arguments and be like, okay, fine,

555
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 4: you just you know, we don't agree with you, but

556
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 4: all right, you're arguing this because they again they really

557
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:55,639
Speaker 4: are trying to do this. They're going by metrics and

558
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 4: they're making cases and they're making arguments and you know,

559
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,560
Speaker 4: nobody's going to agree with you. Fans are weird and crazy,

560
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,560
Speaker 4: but at least transparency would make this a whole lot easier.

561
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, nothing else.

562
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,040
Speaker 3: They give us one or two little bullet points every

563
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 3: week that show us, you know, some of the novelty

564
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:11,920
Speaker 3: to it all.

565
00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 4: Pete speaking, they need a press secretary that's the White House.

566
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 4: They need like it. They need someone to come out,

567
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,320
Speaker 4: a true PR person to be me.

568
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:22,680
Speaker 6: But if they should need a.

569
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:25,240
Speaker 4: True PR person who can come out and just flat

570
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 4: out like articulate it, because it's bad when you get

571
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 4: together like they just don't, you know, they kind of

572
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:34,639
Speaker 4: mumble and they don't want to say anything wrong. You

573
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 4: need someone to sell it better. And then I think

574
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 4: that kind of at least if you're show us to

575
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,679
Speaker 4: some viction with all these picks, then everyone else kind

576
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:42,679
Speaker 4: of shuts up about it.

577
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,400
Speaker 3: Well, I mean that's that's the the larger thing, right,

578
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,159
Speaker 3: is that without the transparency at least gives us talking

579
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:54,280
Speaker 3: heads and ability to blow our respective stacks in those marketplaces.

580
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, it'll be better when it's like fifty nine teams

581
00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,080
Speaker 4: or we can talk about even more of them.

582
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 6: Then you kids to get in it.

583
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:04,280
Speaker 3: Well, Texas might get into but our training two and

584
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:05,840
Speaker 3: a half point dogs this week.

585
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 4: I like them. Look, Texas A and M hasn't played

586
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 4: everyone's getting into all of this team did DBTA one?

587
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 6: This team beating A one? Take it?

588
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,719
Speaker 4: I just dog Ohio state schedule. Texas A and M

589
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 4: has not played Alabama, Oklahoma, Georgia, Uh, who's the ole

590
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:26,280
Speaker 4: miss and they have yet now they're going to play Texas.

591
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,400
Speaker 4: They've missed everybody, so like, yeah, they beat Nor Dame

592
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 4: at the beginning, and then they beat a bunch of

593
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:33,960
Speaker 4: teams that hadn't beaten anybody else.

594
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 6: And okay, let's see.

595
00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:37,320
Speaker 4: I kind of think this is one of those that

596
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 4: Texas defense kind of rises up and oh, arch is

597
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 4: okay and it's just it's in Texas and something. You know,

598
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 4: it's weird. It's Friday, it's thanks Thanksgiving, Texas A and

599
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 4: m in I think Texas A and I think Texas

608
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 1: of the conference tournaments in college basketball when you know

609
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:23,280

610
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 1: if so and so wins the Horizon, or if so

611
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 1: and so wins the MAC, that's gonna screw us. That's

612
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 1: gonna because they got to get in. They're gonna take

613
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 1: another school. That's where you're at right now in the

614
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 1: bid stealing Like if Michigan wins this week, that's gonna

616
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:41,440

Speaker 1: you to say yes, because I I.

640
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:47,040
Speaker 7: Have beaten Michigan just as often the last four years.

641
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 7: That is, of course the Big Ten game, you know,

642
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 7: a Big Ten title game. We're expecting to have number

643
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 7: one Ohio State against number two Indiana. Keep in mind

644
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 7: the game is in the Indianapolis. First, the buck Geys

645
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 7: play this Saturday at number five fifteen Michigan, that is

646
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:04,960
Speaker 7: on Fox TV. Ohio State losing four straight years so

647
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,160
Speaker 7: the Wolverines. The Buckeyes had been ranked number two in

648
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,720
Speaker 7: the country for each of those games. In the TV

649
00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 7: ratings this past weekend at just under five point four

650
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 7: million viewers, Oklahoma Missouri just over five point four million,

651
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 7: Oregon usc and at five point six million the Texas

652
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:26,400
Speaker 7: Arkansas game. The SEC championship game could have Alabama against

653
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:28,680
Speaker 7: Texas A and M, which is eleven to zero number

654
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:32,360
Speaker 7: three ranked, although first A and M this week finishes

655
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 7: its regular season at number sixteen Texas Black Friday. If

656
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 7: the Aggies lose, then Georgia could get in instead. The

657
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 7: Bulldogs play number twenty three Georgia Tech during the day

658
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,360

659
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:48,719
Speaker 7: top five stayed the same, led by Ohio State, Oregon

660
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 7: up to number six. Miami the highest ranked ACC team

661
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,120

Speaker 7: the ACC title game tu Lane at number twenty four

663
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,160
Speaker 7: to the group of five teams North Texas currently ten

664
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 7: and one. They could become that team and get into

665
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 7: the playoff, and then they would lose their coach. Eric

666
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,560
Speaker 7: Morris is going to be Oklahoma State's new head coach.

667
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:13,640

00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 1: for Oklahoma State.

670
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 7: Eric Morris was the guy that had cam Ward in

671
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:24,480
Speaker 7: college transfer. He this guy that I mean he had

672
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 7: Patrick Mahomes. He was offensive coordinator for Mahomes at Texas Tech.

673
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 7: Colorado will not play freshman QB Julian Lewis in at

674
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,360

Speaker 7: in La. The Lakers are leading eighty two to eighty

Speaker 7: started five for five from three point range. He's up

690

703
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:09,960
Speaker 1: there's cheaters in the NFC. WHOA, it's not the officials.

704
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:14,160

707
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:21,520
Speaker 2: the song.

708
00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:28,760

Speaker 1: Clippers lead the Lakers eighty five eighty four. We'll have

711
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:39,960
Speaker 1: more basketball coming up in about fifteen minutes, but as

712
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:41,960
Speaker 1: we're taking a look this hour at all the big

713
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:44,320
Speaker 1: games coming up the next few days in the NFL.

714
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:48,200
Speaker 1: We previewed all three Thanksgiving Day games, and then Friday

715
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 1: we get the Black Friday Game, the Bears and the Eagles.

716
00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 1: Me and I want to tell you this. If you

717
00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,720
Speaker 1: love the Chiefs, if you want to defend the Chiefs,

718
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:01,439
Speaker 1: and you think the Chiefs are so good and all

719
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,719
Speaker 1: they do is when they need to win, they win,

720
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,120
Speaker 1: and they're still the favorites despite the fact they're six

721
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:09,680
Speaker 1: and five. If you love the Chiefs, you have to

722
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:13,400
Speaker 1: love the Bears, because the Bears are the Chiefs of

723
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:14,240
Speaker 1: the NFC.

724
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, they run in parallel.

725
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 1: I'll give you that. You know, obviously they don't have

726
00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:21,239
Speaker 1: the history the last years of the Chiefs, but the

727
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 1: same big offenses. Sometimes they give you a great day,

728
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,000
Speaker 1: sometimes they give you enough when they need to in

729
00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:34,480
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. Caleb Williams has done everything that Patrick

730
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:36,439
Speaker 1: Mahomes has done at the end of games this year.

731
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,279
Speaker 1: So if you love the Chiefs and you defend them

732
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 1: is all, they're still great. You gotta feel the same

733
00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 1: way about the Bears because that's what the Bears are doing,

734
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:46,320
Speaker 1: and the Bears are having a better season.

735
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:48,440
Speaker 3: Well, I mean think some of it just goes to

736
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 3: as you say, you don't have the history. So for

737
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:53,440
Speaker 3: the Chiefs, it's been there, done that. As long as

738
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:59,200
Speaker 3: they're playing meaningful football come December and they're not officially eliminated,

739
00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 3: they can still rise up to grab you by the throat.

740
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:07,759
Speaker 3: With the Bears, it's a fully new experience year of living, dangers, fun, exciting. Yeah,

741
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:12,240
Speaker 3: certainly last minute heroics by the truck full that's cost.

742
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:14,920
Speaker 1: People a lot of a lot of free optumns. But

743
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,440
Speaker 1: everybody loves the Chiefs for doing that, So you gotta

744
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:17,919
Speaker 1: love the Bears.

745
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:19,520
Speaker 3: For doing I don't think they love them because I

746
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:21,359
Speaker 3: wish they I think a lot of people wish they

747
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 3: would just die.

748
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 1: You know. But when do you see a lot you

749
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:26,359
Speaker 1: see a lot of the opinions in the media. Oh,

750
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 1: but the Chiefs are still the champs. So no, these

751
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:30,279
Speaker 1: are the same teams. They're the exact same teams, and

752
00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:33,160
Speaker 1: the Bears and the Bears. Honestly, the Bears, I could

753
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 1: even say the Bears are a better version of the

754
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 1: Chiefs because the Bears play complimentary football really well, right,

755
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:42,600
Speaker 1: like you see it. You see a lot in the

756
00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:46,280
Speaker 1: NFL games with teams where hey, their offense is really

757
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:48,160
Speaker 1: good and you just need the defense to do a

758
00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:49,960
Speaker 1: little bit, and they don't. They let them down. We

759
00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:52,400
Speaker 1: have a or we have a really you know, we

760
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 1: need the defense come up with a big day defensively,

761
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,160
Speaker 1: the offense struggles and the defense can't do it. Right,

762
00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 1: But the Bears play complimentary football just as well as anybody.

763
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:03,880
Speaker 1: When they need a stop, Hey, we need a stop

764
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 1: to get the ball back to the offense. Guess what

765
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 1: they get a stop, They get the ball back to

766
00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:10,400
Speaker 1: the offense. The offense scores, right. Hey, we need to

767
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:11,719
Speaker 1: be able to run the ball a little bit on

768
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 1: this drive because we got to take the pressure off.

769
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:15,359
Speaker 1: We can open some things up for the fourth quarter.

770
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:17,840
Speaker 1: Bears can run the football a little bit, right. They

771
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:21,800
Speaker 1: play complimentary football really well. They're they're both sides of

772
00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:24,279
Speaker 1: the football and special teams are in sync with each other.

773
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,480
Speaker 1: But specifically, when the Bears need a big turnover, they

774
00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:29,080
Speaker 1: get it. Really, when the Bears get a turnover, they

775
00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 1: get one every quarter. It feels like but like complimentary

776
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,600
Speaker 1: football is a big thing, and it's you know, it's

777
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:38,360
Speaker 1: being in sync and the Bears are really insane. I

778
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:40,120
Speaker 1: don't know there's team more in sync this year with

779
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 1: both sides of the football. When one side needs the

780
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:45,720
Speaker 1: other to do something, it's not just well, the defense

781
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 1: is terrible, so we need the offense to score forty points. Right, No,

782
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:50,279
Speaker 1: you don't need that if you're the Bears. They are

783
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 1: finding away every single week.

784
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:51,960
Speaker 6: Yeah.

785
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:54,479
Speaker 3: I mean, we talked about turnover differential, and that's one thing.

786
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,399
Speaker 3: And going back to last year, Caleb Williams didn't turn

787
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:00,080
Speaker 3: the ball over a lot of negative plays, eliminated a

788
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:01,920
Speaker 3: lot of those. But they do take care of the

789
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:05,360
Speaker 3: ball to the point where you've got far and away

790
00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:09,319
Speaker 3: the number one ranking in terms of turnover differential. What

791
00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:12,920
Speaker 3: is curious as this season goes on, and look, we

792
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:16,439
Speaker 3: have the track record through week twelve of what they've

793
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:19,640
Speaker 3: been able to do. They score twenty six point three

794
00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:22,960
Speaker 3: a game, and they rank twenty seventh in terms of

795
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:27,160
Speaker 3: total defense. So the margins, you know, you're living on

796
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:30,719
Speaker 3: the edge and it's exciting, it's thrilling. Is it sustainable?

797
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:31,000
Speaker 4: No?

798
00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:33,400
Speaker 3: No, But it's a hell of a show to watch

799
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 3: Ben Johnson getting and coaxing more big plays out. You'd

800
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:42,360
Speaker 3: love to see more of guys like a Dunza having

801
00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:45,120
Speaker 3: a regular appearance in the box score. Does it all

802
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 3: with the blocking and everything else. But you know, the

803
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:51,480
Speaker 3: run game has been great with Monu Guy and DeAndre

804
00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:55,799
Speaker 3: Swift and complimentary football. It's been fine. This week a

805
00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,600
Speaker 3: massive test because on the other side you just have

806
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:02,839
Speaker 3: a big green enigma in terms of what the Eagles bring.

807
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:06,279
Speaker 1: The Bear ye I mean, look had there? Yeah, uh

808
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 1: the Bear. You're right, The Bears aren't there yet, but

809
00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 1: they're on the way. No, I did. I'd love to

810
00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,200
Speaker 1: have their talent more than probably twenty five other teams

811
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:18,399
Speaker 1: in the NFL, especially offensively like they're like they are

812
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:21,440
Speaker 1: becoming this year. They're not there yet, but you have

813
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:23,720
Speaker 1: to give them credit for what they've done, and that's

814
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:26,480
Speaker 1: when they Sometimes you can't just say, well they're escaping

815
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:28,799
Speaker 1: when you make plays. We need to make plays. And

816
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 1: these are big clutch plays that the offense and Caleb

817
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,840
Speaker 1: Williams are making. These are huge clutch plays.

818
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 3: Your clutch player, clutch coaching, uh and the excellence of execution, right,

819
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:42,680
Speaker 3: all of that has to come come to play in it.

820
00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 3: You can't just always default to this team was no

821
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:46,959
Speaker 3: good that they beat?

822
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:47,200
Speaker 6: Right?

823
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:49,719
Speaker 3: That like that that has become the lazy analysis in

824
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:52,759
Speaker 3: the NFL. Well they only beat these they're still professionals.

825
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,280
Speaker 3: Like as much as you can say these guys are quit, no, no,

826
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:57,840
Speaker 3: they all need to get paid again. They all still

827
00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 3: need another contract. So they're not quitting in week twelve.

828
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:04,760
Speaker 3: Are they as good? Maybe? Maybe not right personnel wise,

829
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:07,960
Speaker 3: and certainly the organization may have something to say with

830
00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:10,880
Speaker 3: what's getting put out there, but the players aren't exhibiting

831
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:14,920
Speaker 3: any less of an effort. For the Bears. It's ahead

832
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:18,160
Speaker 3: of schedule, right, He's a guy that's learning in Caleb,

833
00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:21,880
Speaker 3: he's learning the position all over again, and it's gone

834
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 3: far better than anybody could have planned in the wins losses,

835
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:28,719
Speaker 3: even if folks in Chicago still want to raise Holy.
