1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,760 Speaker 1: Do you think it's okay to drive stone? What's the 2 00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 1: worst that can happen? You end up driving a little 3 00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:07,640 Speaker 1: the speed limit. The truth is your reaction time slow, 4 00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:10,080 Speaker 1: way down. When you're high, you not only put yourself 5 00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 1: in danger, but everyone around you. Stop kidding yourself. If 6 00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:16,560 Speaker 1: you've been using marijuana in any form, do not get 7 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: behind the will If you feel different, you drive different, 8 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:24,280 Speaker 1: drive high. Get a d u I and now Move 9 00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 1: the Sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks. Everybody, what's 10 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 1: going on walking to Move the Sticks DJ and Bucky 11 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 1: a little post Christmas Move the Sticks podcast and Buck. 12 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: We have got We've got quite the ground to cover today. Yeah, 13 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 1: we got a lot to cover. I mean, we're gonna 14 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 1: preview man final week of the National Football League regular season, 15 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,960 Speaker 1: playoff implications everywhere. Then we're going fast forward ahead and 16 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 1: look at the bowl season, some of the top bowl 17 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 1: games coming up this weekend and in the following week. Man, 18 00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:00,200 Speaker 1: it's exciting time, exciting time for football. Also gonna jump 19 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 1: into a little topic when we get to those uh 20 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:03,800 Speaker 1: those bowl games. We were talking off the air, and 21 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 1: I think we just decided to throw it in the 22 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 1: show today. Uh what scouts looking for Bowl games that 23 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: people might be curious about that the scouts travel around 24 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 1: and hit up. Uh, some of these big games, especially 25 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 1: these playoff games, will be well attended. What are you 26 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: looking for? Not only when you're there in person, but 27 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 1: when you when you pop on the tape of these 28 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,319 Speaker 1: big games. Um, we'll have that conversation as well. I 29 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:24,040 Speaker 1: got a little bit of an idea for you, buck 30 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 1: on these uh, these preview games here. Some of these 31 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: games don't have a lot of significance of talking about 32 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 1: teams that have already been eliminated from the postseason. So 33 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 1: in lieu of kind of giving our key to that 34 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: to those games, it might maybe we even sprinkle in 35 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: a little bit of what we're looking for in the 36 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 1: off season. We can even started a week early with 37 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,399 Speaker 1: a couple of these squads, because let's be honest, I 38 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:44,959 Speaker 1: don't know, uh, how much is really on the line 39 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: and how much you're invested in winning a week seventeen 40 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: game when you're two teams out there with U with 41 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 1: no hope whatsoever at the postseason. Yeah, this is what 42 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 1: it works for me. All right. Let's start it off here. 43 00:01:54,640 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 1: Let's roll dolphin in z Bill I'll start with the 44 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: Dolphins here on the road here, Buck, there's a report 45 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 1: out this morning I read that said that Mike Tannenbaum 46 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 1: will likely be dismissed as the president team. He's been 47 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: with the Miami Dolphins for four years. But it sounded 48 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: like Adam Gaze and Chris Greer would be coming back 49 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,360 Speaker 1: head coach and general manager. So so there will at 50 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: least be some turnover, some change here for this Dolphins organization. 51 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: To me priority number one. I don't know if they 52 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,799 Speaker 1: can get where they want to go with Ryan Tannehill 53 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 1: going forward, Buck, I think it might be time to say, Okay, 54 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: you know we we've we've done this for a while now. 55 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,079 Speaker 1: I think we kind of know what he is Um, 56 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 1: and they need to at least they need at least 57 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: attempt to find an upgrade, whether that's a Teddy Bridgewater 58 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: they could try and pry free, whether that's uh making 59 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 1: an effort in the draft to find the next guy 60 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: UM and nothing else. You've got to bring in a 61 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 1: legitimate competition there at the quarterback position. And they need 62 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: to get healthy. Man, they just had some brutal injuries, 63 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: especially along that offensive line. Yeah, there's just kind of 64 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,920 Speaker 1: a whole hum squad, Like there's nothing really about the 65 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,119 Speaker 1: offense they really excite you, Like who is the blue? Who? 66 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 1: Like when you when the blue guys you circle and 67 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 1: worry about. I really don't know. I don't know if 68 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: they have a blue Can you be a team without 69 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: a blue player? I mean Tu Tunto's played like a 70 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: blue this year, I mean anybody else? Like, Like, they 71 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,360 Speaker 1: just don't really excite you, and so it's hard to 72 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: figure out where they kind of go because they do 73 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: kind of strike me as an eight and eight team, 74 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 1: A five. Let's go Manka's potential blue potential. So they 75 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,959 Speaker 1: certainly have to upgrade. And then, speaking about grades, the 76 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills have to upgrade the talent around Josh Allen. 77 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 1: Say what you want about Josh Allen. Look, he has 78 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 1: been the player that we thought that he would be 79 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 1: coming in. We said he was a bit of a project, 80 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: that it would take him sometime to kind of acclimate 81 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: to the National Football League. The one thing that he's 82 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 1: shown is that he's a better athlete and maybe a 83 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: better runner than some of us expected watching his tape 84 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: at Wyoming. His ability to kind of wield the Buffalo 85 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: Bills to a couple of wins should give you hope. 86 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: But if you want to maximize who he could be 87 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: as a player, you got us around them with better 88 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: weapons on the perimeter. They need a couple of wide receivers. 89 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: They need a big time running back. Shade McCoy is 90 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: kinda on his last leg. If they can find some 91 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: weapons to really help take some of the pressure off 92 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: Josh Allen. I think Josh Allen can help this team 93 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: get back into the playoffs. One thing I would add 94 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: real quick here and we move on to the next one. 95 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: Constructing this team roster construction for the Bills. I am 96 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: trying to find the fastest speed speed speed because we 97 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: are gonna run, run, run, and then it is home 98 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 1: run City. We're not looking for ten play drives here. 99 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 1: Let let that arm loose buck and find dudes that 100 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: can fly. You want three or four guys that can 101 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: fly out there, three or four guys that can fly. 102 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 1: I think they could take a page from the Carolina 103 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 1: Panthers blueprint in terms of trying to find guys like 104 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: some of those guys. Find some guys they can take 105 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: the top off the defense and allow Josh Allen to 106 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: be a special playmaker Falcons. That Buccaneers already once again 107 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,840 Speaker 1: to team teams with not a lot going on here 108 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:06,479 Speaker 1: in the postseason. But the Falcons, I think, look, I 109 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: don't know what's gonna happen with Steve Sarkisian. I mean 110 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: that there's been talked that maybe this is it, maybe 111 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 1: they move on. There's been talked they could have two 112 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 1: new coordinators offense and defensive coordinators on this football team 113 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: going forward. I still think they can get a little 114 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: bit better in that offensive line. UM. I thought a 115 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: little bit disappointed group this year. UM and the other things. 116 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 1: They gotta figure out. This running back situation. DeVante Freeman 117 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 1: hasn't been able to stay healthy. Uh. Tevin Coleman is 118 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: a free agent, so they've got a decision to make 119 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: their how they're gonna move forward there with that running 120 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: back position. You talk about the questions uh all throughout 121 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 1: the l NA Falcons roster. I think the same could 122 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: be said for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Tampay Buccaneers 123 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: have invested a lot of time and money and trying 124 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 1: to build up this offense, but it seems like they 125 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: didn't need to cast their eyes to the defense and 126 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 1: figure out if they can kind of get that up 127 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: to No. First decision is what are they gonna do 128 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 1: with Dirt Cutter? Does Dirt Cutter return? Did they find 129 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: a new coach or did they even get a new 130 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 1: general manager? Uh? Considering the tenuity that Jason light has had, 131 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 1: if they stick the course, I think the first thing 132 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 1: you gotta figure out your defensive coordinator, and you have 133 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,039 Speaker 1: to get better players at the second level. You tried 134 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 1: to invest in the lead line got via veil last year. 135 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 1: You have Gerald McCoy, You brought up some free agents, 136 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: try to sprinkle it out. Jason Pierre Paul has played 137 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 1: well on the edge second level, more linebackers, more playmakers, 138 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: and then in the back end you still need some 139 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 1: guys that can turn the ball over. They just have 140 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: to commit to really being great in the back seven. 141 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 1: If they can upgrade the back seven, I think they 142 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: have a chance to get back into pack Cowboys that 143 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:40,600 Speaker 1: Giants Cowboys are locked in on this one, so be 144 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: interesting to see who plays who doesn't play. UM Really 145 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: more than anything else, I know you want to keep 146 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,600 Speaker 1: keep some mojo going here and going into the postseason, 147 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:50,480 Speaker 1: but you've got guys are a little nicked up. I 148 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: don't see any reason for them to play in this 149 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 1: ball game. Buck. So if I'm I'm looking to see 150 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: what the Cowboys are gonna do here, I still want 151 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:58,919 Speaker 1: to see. You know, some of these young players on 152 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 1: defense have played the next stremely high level. Uh. I 153 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: went back and was watching some tape the other day, 154 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 1: and I don't know. I I know we've talked about 155 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 1: him a little bit on here, but Byron Jones, man, 156 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: he's been playing, he's been playing playing, Watching him against 157 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: the Redskins running so effortlessly. Uh. With Sean Jackson, I 158 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 1: mean he's uh, he's he's a big time player. It's 159 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: nice to see a guy finally get into his right spot, 160 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: in his right role and the confidence catches up with 161 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: the ability level. Um, he's he's an elite player. Anyways, 162 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 1: that was just my little, my little nugget on the Cowboys. 163 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: I don't imagine they're gonna go, um, you know what, 164 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: to the wall to uh to try and win this one. 165 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: I think it's all about getting health and getting ready 166 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: to roll next week. Yeah. I think you want to 167 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: be at your best when you get into the postseason. 168 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: So anyone who is deemed or nicked a little bit. 169 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: You want to keep those guys out. Uh, you probably 170 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 1: want to keep some of the rhythm, though you don't 171 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: want to give them a full week off. I think 172 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: if you're the offense, you play a couple of series 173 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 1: and if those series result in touchdowns, you then pull 174 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: those guys off the field. Zekier Elli can't play much. 175 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 1: Dak Frescott, I wouldn't play on him playing much. The 176 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: rest of the guys you gotta for yourself because you 177 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 1: don't have their credibility. Maybe Mari Cooper, you you gotta 178 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: address somebody, but the other guys have at It's gonna 179 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: be your game for the New York Giants. Look, Eli 180 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 1: Manning's going to tease them just enough to think that 181 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: they can get another season out of and we saw 182 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: him having a decent game a week ago. But at 183 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: some point I think you need to put the young 184 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: quarterback on the field and see what you have in 185 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: Kyle Aletta and some of the other guys. I'm not 186 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: saying that Letta is the guy that is going to 187 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 1: be the next quarterback, but you at least want to 188 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: play him in a regular season game to see how 189 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,319 Speaker 1: he performs, to see how he handles kind of running 190 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 1: the offense. If you can get a good feel for him, 191 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 1: it really can help you make some decisions when it 192 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 1: comes to the first round and what directs you want 193 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 1: to go when it comes to building your team for 194 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: Hell Panthers at Saints. Panthers Saints, I'm gonna get there 195 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: in just a second, buck, But I gotta tell you, um, 196 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: just to go back real quick. Dolphins bills tickets can 197 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: be had for seventeen dollars. I just found that out, 198 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 1: So I likely want to go to that. No better 199 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: bargain your bargain than that one. Uh uh, Look, Panthers, 200 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna see Kyle Allen. Got a guy we got 201 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: a chance to know when the run up to the 202 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: draft who had transferred out of Texas A and m 203 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 1: get from from Arizona, had worked with our buddy Jordan Palmer, 204 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: and the run up to the draft, he had trained 205 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 1: with Sam Donald and Josh Allen. Uh, he's gonna get 206 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: a chance to start in this ballgame. I assume. Uh 207 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: we might even see Teddy Bridgwater in this one. So 208 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: get a chance to see a couple of young quarterbacks. 209 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: I'm excited. Kyle Allen. What an opportunity for him. Cam 210 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: Newton's down, Heinekes down, and uh here he is a rookie, 211 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: undrafted free agent getting his shot. I can't wait to 212 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: see what he does. Yeah, this is an opportunity for 213 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: him to get a shot and kind of prove the 214 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: people that he can play in this league. We have 215 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 1: seen Nick Mullins have his opportunity to sanci that and 216 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 1: you look up like, oh man, he's a little better 217 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,559 Speaker 1: player than we thought that he could be. For the 218 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints is Look, let's make sure we get 219 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 1: to the finish line with all the guys in place, 220 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:51,959 Speaker 1: the differences to have a bye week. So I think 221 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,559 Speaker 1: you want to play him, play you starters a little longer, 222 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: get him maybe a half of work, and then you 223 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 1: want Teddy Bridgewater and the backup crew to come in. 224 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: With Teddy Ridgewater, this is another chance to kind of 225 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 1: solidify yourself as one of the top free agent quarterbacks 226 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: on the market. Go out and Dazz will treat this 227 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: like your super Bowl. This is an opportunity to kind 228 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 1: of continue to recreate the buzz around your name. Jets 229 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 1: at Patriots. The Jets have got to continue to to 230 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 1: just walk that tight rope they've been walking, Buck, which 231 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 1: is watch your young quarterback play lights out, which Sam 232 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 1: Donald has done, but find a way to lose protect 233 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: that draft. They still have a shot at the number 234 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 1: one overall pick. Give me a top three pick, which 235 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: is huge for this ball club that needs a lot 236 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: of help and a lot of support around their young quarterback. 237 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 1: But I would love to see in a game where 238 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 1: the Patriots have something to play for. Um, it's Sam 239 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 1: Donald with an inferior roster. Just be competitive. If Sam 240 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: Donald can make this team competitive in this game. Uh, 241 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: what a little jolt of adrenaline here going into the offseason. 242 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 1: I'm in Look, we both were Sam Donald fans coming 243 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 1: into the draft process, Buck, I think some people might 244 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: have jumped off that bandwagon at some point time, which 245 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: is shocking to me. And the first year player, I 246 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 1: think he not only is gonna be a good player, Buck, 247 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be a star. I really do 248 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 1: think he's gonna be a star in this league once 249 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: taken him some help. I think he's gonna have the 250 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 1: second year bump. I think he's gonna experience the same 251 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: kind of uh bounce that we saw from Carson Wentz 252 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: and from Jerry Goff. Now did they knew exactly what 253 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,079 Speaker 1: they have? They know how to build the pieces around him. 254 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: I think the New York Jests will kind of uh 255 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: bounce back and make a major move next year with 256 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 1: Sam Donald even more comfortable as the starter for the 257 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,720 Speaker 1: New England Patriots. I think this is still continue to 258 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: try and refine your offensive identity. A week ago we 259 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 1: saw them really lean on the running game Sony Michelle, 260 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: James White, rtt S, Burkhead, uh Cordero Patterson. They combined 261 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 1: for two and seventy three rushing yards. Tom Brady hasn't 262 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: had his a game the last three, four or five weeks. 263 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: They have to figure out how to get the running 264 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 1: game go and sustain that while also building out a 265 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 1: complimentary passing game. This is a big game. Noring Bill Belichick. 266 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 1: He likes to play his guys regardless of situation or circumstance. 267 00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: This is a game for them to continue to figure 268 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:01,560 Speaker 1: out who they are so they can put them their 269 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 1: best selves out on display in the postseason. Jaguars that 270 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 1: Texas alright, Texans are assured of a postseason birth buck, 271 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 1: but they don't have the division locked up just yet. 272 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: So Uh, this is a this is a big game 273 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: for them when you look at what's going on across 274 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 1: the field. Uh, man, I'll tell you what. They better 275 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 1: be careful because the Jacksonville Jaguars defense, even though it's 276 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 1: been a lot of termoil, I think they've been through Gosh, 277 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,079 Speaker 1: they've lost like seven offensive lineman years and seeing what 278 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 1: they've lost on the offensive front. But that defense. We 279 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 1: saw this defense shut out the Colts not long ago. 280 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 1: Uh and just get after people. Um So, so that 281 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 1: is a dangerous game. They can get after you in 282 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: a in a big way. UM. I would just caution 283 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: the Texans they had just be careful here against the 284 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,839 Speaker 1: Jacks because this defense cannot only control you. They can 285 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 1: turn you over. Uh and you look up and find 286 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 1: yourself losing to a bad football team. That's what's That's 287 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,839 Speaker 1: what could happen here with the Jackson Texans. Yeah, the 288 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: danger is all in dealing with the Jacksonville Jaguars defense. 289 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 1: The defense that has nothing to lose, they can just 290 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,320 Speaker 1: go all out. I think ty Wash, I think if 291 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: you're him, you have all these weapons, I think you 292 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 1: throw it all at the Houston Texas because you have 293 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: nothing to lose, and I think this guy, this group 294 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 1: of players that they have on defense with like nothing 295 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: more than to knock off the Euston Texans as they're 296 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 1: going into the postseason. For the Texans, you gotta protect 297 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 1: the Shawn Watson. Deshaun Watson has been really playing quietly 298 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: at an m v P level since the middle part 299 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 1: of the season. I want to continue to get him 300 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,719 Speaker 1: into a rhythm, allow him to flow, and then I 301 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 1: need to figure out what we're going to do with 302 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 1: the running game, just in case Lamar Miller is not 303 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 1: healthy and available. I know Foreman came back, but you 304 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 1: just want to see what are the best players to 305 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 1: work with him going into the playoffs. They have to 306 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 1: be able to run the ball because their offensive line 307 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 1: can't protect against the talented front second Lions that Packers. 308 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 1: All right, this is a game again between two teams. 309 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:01,679 Speaker 1: Are going nowhere here, no postseason for either one of 310 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,319 Speaker 1: these teams. You know, I'll tell you what, Buck I 311 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 1: want to see if this is an inspired Lions team 312 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 1: five and ten, five and ten on their way potentially 313 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,959 Speaker 1: to a five and eleven season. I mean, what happens 314 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,199 Speaker 1: if they come out here? I know it's a meanless game, 315 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 1: but I just want to see some fight from this team. 316 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 1: They go out here and lay one down against the 317 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: Packers and get blown out. Um, I think you might 318 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 1: see more roster turmoil, roster shake up, but potentially some 319 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 1: discussion about other changes within the organization. So I say, 320 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: these weeks seventeen games for some of these teams don't 321 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: have a lot of significance. I would I would just 322 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: say with the Lions team, I want to see some inspiration. 323 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 1: That's what I'm looking for. Yeah, right now you get 324 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 1: a chance to see if the players are responding to 325 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 1: Matt Patricia. If you're someone who's watching, do they respond, 326 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 1: Do they continue to play hard, do they finish all 327 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 1: the way through the finish line? Or have they already 328 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: checked out? Have the cars and moving vans already backed 329 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 1: up to the building and ready to go on vacation. 330 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 1: That's what you want to see for the Green Bay 331 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 1: Packers and Rodgers has kind of come out. It kind 332 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: of made a little play for Joe Phielban to be 333 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 1: the head coach. I don't know if that ain't happening. 334 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: I don't think he's going to happen, But if that 335 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 1: is the case, Aaron Rodgers needs to go ahead and 336 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: balled out for the coach that he wants to be 337 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 1: s a head coach, Um, Joe Phielman, This defense, this team, 338 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 1: I think they're in need of repair. I think there 339 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,239 Speaker 1: are a lot of things that need to be reworked 340 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 1: to help give them an opportunity to get back. But 341 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: if you want Joe Phielman to be the guy, they 342 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: gotta play their tails off for him. Eagles, that Redskins. Well, 343 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 1: all the talk has been about Nick Foles and how 344 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 1: great he has played, and you cannot deny um how 345 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: he's injected some life into this group here, Buck, But man, 346 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 1: the defense has played better, and man they almost they 347 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: almost cost him coughing up another late lead, uh last week, 348 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: but they found a way offensively to cover that up. 349 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: The one guy on defense, I just want to give 350 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 1: a little shine to a little love too. Ifante Maddox 351 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 1: had a pit under size competitive corner, Buck, he's playing 352 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 1: really really good football and the secondary that needed someone 353 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 1: to step up. He's been that guy. So uh, just 354 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 1: a little shout out to him and that defense is 355 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: still though. You gotta find a way to finish games 356 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 1: a little bit better. I still man it against the 357 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 1: against the Washington Redskins, this would be a gut wrenching 358 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: loss if they somehow didn't get this done. Of course, 359 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 1: they'll also need some help with the Chicago Barretts knock 360 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 1: off the Minnesota Vikings to getting postseason. Yeah, it's tough 361 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 1: game for the Eagles because it's a rivalry game. The 362 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: Redskins seemingly have nothing to play for, but there's always 363 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 1: the pride factor um And based on the stuff that 364 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 1: we saw come out of Washington this week, Dj Swayringer 365 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 1: is released, has some negative comments about the game planning 366 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 1: and the defense coordinated Greg Monusky. So all players are 367 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 1: on alert. Everyone that look, we're all playing for our jobs. 368 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: And so if that's the situation, I think you can 369 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 1: get an inspired effort from the red Skins. And if 370 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: I'm Jake Gruden, when I'm looking at this, I'm looking 371 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 1: at Josh Johnson. I'm looking at the weapons that I 372 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 1: have on offense, and I'm trying to see do I 373 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 1: continue to go the course with the guys that we 374 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 1: have on the outside. Josh Dotson has been a little 375 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 1: bit of an underachiever. Jamison Crowder hasn't necessarily been the 376 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: same this year as he's been in previous years, and 377 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,440 Speaker 1: Jordan Reed has always kind of been banged up. This 378 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: is an evaluation game. You want to win, but you 379 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,399 Speaker 1: also want to see your guys because you're trying to 380 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,479 Speaker 1: figure out who are the core players that I need 381 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 1: to take into twenty nineteen. What Chargers that Broncos. Well, look, 382 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,119 Speaker 1: the Chargers still have something to play for because the 383 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs lost last week to Seattle. Now the 384 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 1: Charges would handle their business against the Baltimore Ravens, they'd 385 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 1: be in control of the number one seed in the 386 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 1: postseason first round. By everything would go through the StubHub. 387 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 1: But they couldn't get done lost to that Baltimore Ravens 388 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: team as Seattle does him a favorite knocks off the Chiefs. 389 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,159 Speaker 1: So I don't know that it's likely that the Oakland 390 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 1: Raiders go on the road and knock off the Chiefs, 391 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: but there's a puncher's chance and as long as that exists. 392 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: But Chargers have to play to win here in Denver 393 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,159 Speaker 1: because you could go from the fifth seed to the 394 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 1: one seed if John Gruden's crew somehow pulled a rab 395 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 1: out of hat. Now what I'm looking for in this 396 00:17:56,040 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 1: game against the Broncos. No, Philip lindsay, for this football team, 397 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: but it's the other side that still causes some problems. 398 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:04,640 Speaker 1: When you look at that pass rush they can get going. 399 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 1: That pass rush got after the Chargers earlier this year 400 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:09,439 Speaker 1: in that game that they won, Von Miller almost won 401 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,879 Speaker 1: the game single handedly, buck Uh. So they've got to 402 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,359 Speaker 1: find a way to control that pass rush. And let's 403 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 1: be honest, they have got to find a way to 404 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 1: avoid the early turnovers. You have early turnover against Kansas 405 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: City Chiefs, Philip rivers, another turnover early against the Baltimore Ravens. 406 00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,120 Speaker 1: You gotta start out a little bit better than they've 407 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 1: started out, and that that comes down to the quarterback, 408 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:30,680 Speaker 1: and that also comes down to a leaky offensive line. 409 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 1: So those are the things I'm looking for from the Chargers, 410 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 1: look the Broncos. If I'm vanished, Joseph, and I know 411 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: that this is my last one, I at least want 412 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 1: to go out of winner. So let's try and figure 413 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:42,439 Speaker 1: out a way to put the best game plan together 414 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:45,199 Speaker 1: to give me an opportunity to win games. It's already 415 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 1: been reported um that he may be in consideration to 416 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 1: come back to Cincinnati with the Bengals in some capacity, 417 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: maybe as the defensive quarterbe could be as the replacement 418 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,440 Speaker 1: to Marvin Lewis. So if that is the case, I 419 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 1: want to make sure that I put on a good showing. 420 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 1: It is my audition to the other teams. Maybe I 421 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,720 Speaker 1: can kind of rekindle some of the buzz that was 422 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 1: around my name two years ago before I got the 423 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 1: Broncos job Raiders that Chiefs. Well, I'll tell you what. 424 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,159 Speaker 1: We talked a little bit earlier about the Detroit Lions 425 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 1: and wanting to see some inspiration. I've seen some inspiration 426 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,880 Speaker 1: here from this Raider's team coming down the stretch. They 427 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 1: beat the Steelers a couple of weeks ago, hammer the 428 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: Broncos and potentially their last game and in the Colisseum 429 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 1: up there in Oakland. Now, man, you want to talk 430 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,199 Speaker 1: about a way to to inject some life into your 431 00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 1: team going to the offseason, going there and knock off 432 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 1: the number one seed heading into the postseason, the Kansas 433 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: City Chiefs. I'm conflicted on that because it will affect 434 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 1: your draft position. Team that's got three first round picks 435 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 1: and the two of them in the bottom of the 436 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,200 Speaker 1: first round, which they didn't anticipate buck um, but I 437 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 1: don't know. I might be leaning more towards saying, hey, 438 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 1: let's get some positive mojo going here, find a way 439 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,879 Speaker 1: to knock off the Chiefs, and and everybody is going 440 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 1: to buy in here to Jon Gruden what he's doing 441 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,200 Speaker 1: going into the off season. If they finish up winning 442 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 1: three of their last four, I would be quite the surprise. 443 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,920 Speaker 1: But man, I just don't know how this defense is 444 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 1: gonna be able to slow down this Chief's offense. They 445 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 1: were competitive with them, but that was a shootout, and 446 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 1: this was the home game. They gave up forty. I 447 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 1: think there's a chance that they could end up giving 448 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: up fifty Burger and this one at that case, Yeah, 449 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 1: the Raiders are looking to have that bounds going into 450 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 1: the off season makes everything easier when you start the 451 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 1: offseason program. If you're coming off um some momentum, winning 452 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 1: some games. You talk about winning three out of their 453 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:29,440 Speaker 1: last four, John Gruten can kind of stand in front 454 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,159 Speaker 1: of room and say, look, the program is headed in 455 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,120 Speaker 1: the right direction. We just need to add a few 456 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 1: pieces and we can get it done. For Andy Reid, 457 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 1: they need to create some momentum because offensively They've been 458 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: playing really, really well. They've still been putting up points, 459 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 1: and even though they lost Kareem Hunt, the running game 460 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,679 Speaker 1: has been okay. It's been sufficient enough to allow them 461 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 1: to continue to throw the ball all over the yard 462 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: and still be able to control the game. Their biggest 463 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: issue going into the postseason is obviously the defense. Bob 464 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 1: Sutton needs to clean up the issues that are plaguing 465 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 1: this defense. Ball flying over the head, not necessarily making 466 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 1: stout tackles against a run game. This is what I 467 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 1: call a get right game. They need to get right 468 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 1: against the Oakland Raiders. They need to clean up everything 469 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 1: and have a good performance. If I'm Bob Sutton, I 470 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 1: mean to read, I want to be able to pop 471 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:17,200 Speaker 1: on the tape and say we played a clean football game, 472 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 1: we got all the bad football out, and then we're 473 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 1: ready to attack the postseason. Bears that Vikings, well, Bear 474 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 1: still have a lot to play for because if the 475 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 1: l A. Rams were to drop a game here coming 476 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: down the stretch, then Bears end up with the first 477 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: round by So you gotta compete. You gotta be competitive 478 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 1: here going against the Vikings. It's a weird situation where 479 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 1: you could have a repeat. You go play him one 480 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 1: week to around and play him the next week. Be 481 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 1: uh be the third time they've played the Minnesota Vikings. 482 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,159 Speaker 1: A key for them in this game, I think is 483 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 1: making the Vikings one dimension. Will take away Dalvin Cook 484 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 1: in this newly established ground game here for the Vikings 485 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,640 Speaker 1: and then get up to uh get up after Kirk 486 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 1: Cousins see him up a little bit. So stopping the run. 487 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 1: Stopping Dalvin Cook would be the number one on the 488 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 1: agenda for the Bearers to win this ballgame. You know, 489 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 1: for the Vikings it is you want to win and 490 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 1: get in, but you also want to continue to settle 491 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,640 Speaker 1: into Kevin Stefanski's offense. This offense has been more balanced. 492 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: They've done a better job of being on the center, 493 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,640 Speaker 1: more play action for Kirk Cousins. The weapons are now 494 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 1: involved and everything is looking like it's coming together. You 495 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 1: want to continue to build upon that. Get the win, 496 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: get into the postseason, because if the Vikings get into 497 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 1: the postseason, they are a team that is very, very 498 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 1: scary to face because they can play defense and they 499 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,159 Speaker 1: have enough explosive playmakers on the offense to win a 500 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:39,200 Speaker 1: couple of games. Brow Ravens, this is a huge one, 501 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 1: not only for the Baltimore Ravens, who win assurs their 502 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:46,159 Speaker 1: winning their division and getting into the postseason buck, but 503 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns. They have a chance to be over 504 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: five hundred. How long has it been since that's been 505 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 1: the case things step back to two thousand seven. Uh, 506 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:54,439 Speaker 1: it has been a long time. This team sits at 507 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: seven seven and one right now, a chance to be 508 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 1: over five hundred. And the key to this game, like 509 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 1: is it is tough sledding against this Baltimore Ravens defense. 510 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:04,639 Speaker 1: I know they got it done against this group earlier 511 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: in the season, but that was a twelve to nine 512 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: game of a little slugfest. If you're gonna score enough 513 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,200 Speaker 1: points to beat the Ravens in this game, I think 514 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 1: you look. I think you look at some of those 515 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 1: trick plays that we've seen get dusted off here by 516 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: Freddie Kitchens. We saw Jarvis Landry get loose, throw on 517 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 1: the football a little bit. I think the creativity go 518 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 1: outside the box early in this game, try and get 519 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: this Ravens defense on their heels. They settled in early 520 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,239 Speaker 1: against the Chargers last week, and it's just like they 521 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: sucked the life out of you. So I look for 522 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: a little trick player early in this and get little 523 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 1: gadget going. You've got nothing to lose here in Cleveland. Yeah. 524 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 1: I think first score matters in this game. Like first 525 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,200 Speaker 1: team to score a touchdown, first team to put points 526 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,119 Speaker 1: on the board and make the other team feel the 527 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 1: pressure of having to catch up certainly will benefit those teams. 528 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,360 Speaker 1: For the Baltimore Ravens, knowing that you lost this similar 529 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 1: type of game last year because you couldn't finish in 530 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, you don't want to mess around with 531 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns. I believe it's critical early in the game. Offensively, 532 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: you have to establish who you are. Greg Williams is 533 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: going to bliss. He's gonna bring a lot of pressure. 534 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,440 Speaker 1: He's going to try and knock Lamar Jackson around. Can 535 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 1: you protect him, utilize the read option stuff that you've 536 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 1: done very successfully while also creating some explosive plays in 537 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 1: the passing game. It is important for the Ravens to 538 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:17,160 Speaker 1: play what I call downhill, meaning they're up and their 539 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 1: defense is able to really pin their ears back and 540 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 1: go after Baker Mayfield. If they do that, I think 541 00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:25,119 Speaker 1: the game plays in their favor. Um. I like the 542 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 1: Ravens to win, but I think it's important that they 543 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:33,879 Speaker 1: win the first quarter. What forty Niners and Rams. I 544 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:35,640 Speaker 1: just want to highlight one player here for the forty 545 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:39,639 Speaker 1: Niners because sometimes there's great performances on bad teams to 546 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,640 Speaker 1: get lost in the shuffle. The Forest Buckner at six 547 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 1: ft seven, three d pounds buck He's got twelve sacks 548 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 1: this year. He's a he is a star, and everything's 549 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 1: gonna be focused on Aaron Donald on the other side, 550 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: and can he get the four sacks he needs to 551 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 1: to break stray Hand's record. There's another defensive linement that 552 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 1: deserves some love in this game, the Forest Buckner out 553 00:24:57,840 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 1: of Oregon. Hats off to him. He is a he's 554 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,639 Speaker 1: a superstar on on a bad team. But eventually this 555 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 1: team can start playing well and the Forest Buckner is 556 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 1: gonna get his due. Look, the Forest Buckner is an 557 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 1: outstanding player. They have some nice pieces in San Francisco. 558 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 1: For whatever reason, I know we always talked about them 559 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 1: the next year, like, hey, next year, this team is 560 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 1: going to be at some point they gotta cash in. 561 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 1: They have to show us that they're really ready. I know. 562 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoffalo being heard kind of impacted them, but you 563 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: would like to see the rest of the pieces come 564 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: together to really give them an opportunity to make a 565 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 1: bounce to be a contender in the NFC West. For 566 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 1: the Rams, I want to build upon what happened last 567 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 1: week against the Arizona Cardinal c J. Anderson kick started 568 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:39,920 Speaker 1: their running game. And now I know they're talking about 569 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 1: Todd Gurley playing Bubba Regardless, the running game is in 570 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 1: mindset and attitude. I saw the Rams play quicker. I 571 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: saw them get back to their tempo offense. I saw 572 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 1: multiple guys touched the ball on fly sweet Robert Woods 573 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:55,359 Speaker 1: and Brandon Cooks, Gerald Everett. I want to continue to 574 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 1: do the things that we did very early in the year. 575 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 1: Get back to the basics. Do what we did really 576 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,640 Speaker 1: really successfully early in the year. That is the recipe 577 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 1: for the Ramps to kind of blow through everybody in 578 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 1: the postseason. Get back to being who they are. Bengals 579 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: that Steelers, Wow, this was this is not gonna end 580 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 1: well for the Cincinnati Bengals. Last year they went into 581 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: Baltimore and knocked them off, kept them out of the postseason. 582 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 1: They've got a chance to secure the Pittsburgh Steelers not 583 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 1: being in the postseason if they can knock them off. 584 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:29,959 Speaker 1: But this team, remember when since I was four and one, 585 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 1: and there was always positive energy around this team. And injuries, 586 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:38,920 Speaker 1: they get hurts, but injuries all you star players are out. 587 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:41,640 Speaker 1: It's not great. It's not a it's not a great 588 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:43,679 Speaker 1: group right now. To me, really, the kind of the 589 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 1: intrigue and this one is what happens after this game, 590 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,360 Speaker 1: not what happens during it. Uh, Is Marvin Lewis decide 591 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 1: to move upstairs. As we've talked about, no, no, no, no, 592 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:56,919 Speaker 1: come back twenty years. You get to go watch. You 593 00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:59,159 Speaker 1: can't leave without the go watch. You get to go 594 00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 1: watch with the big in the middle. Yeah, he's Uh, 595 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 1: he's had a long run here with the Cincinnati Bengals. 596 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:08,680 Speaker 1: You mentioned the injuries. Um, look, they showed some competitiveness 597 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 1: and some fight after they were down early last week. 598 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 1: Jeff Driscoll can run around and can make some plays. 599 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 1: I think he's got a chance to be a really, 600 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: really good number two in this league. I don't know 601 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:19,679 Speaker 1: that he's a he's a starter for a good football team. Um, 602 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: but I just have a feeling the Steelers smarting after 603 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 1: that loss to the Saints. This might not be a 604 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 1: game for women and children. I don't know if they're 605 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: really emotionally immature. I don't know if they can come 606 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 1: and take care of business in this fashion, the way 607 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 1: that ju Ju kind of laid out the Instagram post 608 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,680 Speaker 1: and all that other stuff, like game, he's gonna bounce back, 609 00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know. That was a lot. They 610 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:46,199 Speaker 1: poured a lot to empty the bucket to beat the Saints. 611 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:48,439 Speaker 1: I mean, I know you said they could come out smarting, 612 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: but they also call an egg and kind of limb. 613 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:52,440 Speaker 1: I don't think they need the whole bucket to beat 614 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 1: the Bengals, and might need a teacup, a teacup, a teacup, 615 00:27:56,520 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 1: so disrespectful. So I don't see what happens. I like 616 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 1: that in Steelers win this one big? All right? What's next? Cardinals? 617 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:12,399 Speaker 1: That Seahawks? Alright? Speaking of uh of bad football teams, 618 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,600 Speaker 1: here Arizona Cardinals staring at the first pick. Don't screw 619 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:17,880 Speaker 1: it up, don't mess around and win a game here, buck. 620 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any uh, there's any chance that happens. Again. 621 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 1: This is another team I don't necessarily agree with it. 622 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 1: One and dunes. I hate one and dunes. From a 623 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 1: coaching situation, I don't think you really get a fair 624 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:30,199 Speaker 1: shot when that happens. But that has been the buzz 625 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: that Steve Wilkes could be one and done here. Unfortunately 626 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:35,920 Speaker 1: for him, going on the road and taking on a 627 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 1: Seahawks team not the way you want to finish up 628 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 1: a season. I would imagine this is not gonna end. Well. 629 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 1: Do you think you really fire him after one year? 630 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 1: That's what everybody's saying. I'm not an information guy. I'm 631 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 1: just reading the reports. I don't think I don't get 632 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: a chance. No, No, I'm I'm looking at it, and 633 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 1: I understand in all the reports or whatever, and it 634 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 1: hasn't gone well at all. Having to fire your offensive 635 00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 1: coordinator early in the year. Uh, defense is taking a 636 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 1: huge Here's here's the thing. When you have a young 637 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 1: quarterback and you don't feel like you have the right 638 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 1: person in place to help him be successful, that's the jewel. 639 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 1: That's the jewel the organization. So people will they will 640 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:16,000 Speaker 1: overreact to protect that young quarterback. I mean, that's that's 641 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 1: that's the deal. I don't think it's right either. I mean, look, 642 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 1: it is what it is. Like I've grown accustomed to 643 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 1: seeing and saying, anything can happen in this league. I 644 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:26,959 Speaker 1: think the big thing and there was a report came 645 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:30,120 Speaker 1: out that Mike McCarthy would be interested in coaching UH 646 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: down in Arizona, the name that I've always heard associated 647 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,720 Speaker 1: with the Arizona Cardinals, and it could be an attempt 648 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 1: to kind of reach back to the Bruce Arians era. 649 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 1: Don't be surprised if Tyd Bowls get serious consideration back. 650 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 1: He was well liked down there. He's an Arians guy. 651 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:50,720 Speaker 1: They said that there was a possibility last year that 652 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 1: if he had gotten bumped and bounced by the jet 653 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 1: that he could have ended up there. If it happens 654 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 1: with Steve Wilks, I wouldn't be surprised to see Tyd 655 00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 1: Bowls make his way down there. If he can bring 656 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 1: an offensive coordinated with him. I've got one. I've got 657 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,960 Speaker 1: one that he worked with. If Cleveland decides to make 658 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 1: wholesale changes, UH, you could pair up Todd Bowls and 659 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 1: Freddy Kitchens back in Arizona together again. There you go, 660 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 1: done deal. They like that throw that one in the 661 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 1: throw that in the notebook. Put that one in the notebook. 662 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 1: NFL Dot com slash Bucky Brooks, but even better than that, 663 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: like Nanda, we're going down his road and who cares? 664 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 1: We only have one more to talk about. But how 665 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 1: about you boy pass the tide Bowls angle. How about 666 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 1: you just bring Freddy Kitchens back? Because again the offensive 667 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 1: you got the office, you gotta bruce arians kind of 668 00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,840 Speaker 1: aura stamped on him. And maybe Freddy Kittens comes back, 669 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 1: and maybe they flip it and bring Todd Bowls back 670 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: as the c which might be an easier deal because 671 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,480 Speaker 1: the connuity of the play caller in the light. Here's 672 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 1: an interesting can't give you another idea for your notebook? 673 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 1: I love giving you work to do. Um the coaches 674 00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 1: that are out this year that could factor in not 675 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 1: only his head coaches, but as coordinators. You know a 676 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 1: name you haven't heard lately, Chuck Bagano. How would that 677 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 1: be for a defensive coordinator coming back after being out 678 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 1: for a minute? Chuck Bogano was an outstanding defensive coach 679 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 1: now he and he and look look at it when 680 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 1: you look at his head coaching record. I know people, 681 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 1: uh you know, look at the way it ended there 682 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:18,760 Speaker 1: when Andrew Luck wasn't healthy, When Andrew Luck was healthy, 683 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 1: they're going they're win eleven games, going to postseason every 684 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 1: year with Chuck Bogano. At worst, he's going to come 685 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: in and be a really good defensive coordinator for somebody. Yeah, 686 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 1: I think so. And I think he's probably chomping at 687 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 1: a bid to get back. I think the one thing 688 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 1: that we've known about coaches is coaches like the coach, 689 00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 1: and Pagano would love to have his feet in the grass. 690 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 1: He would love to be instructing UH players and kind 691 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 1: of developed. That's arians connection to if you're trying to 692 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 1: get back to the arians that they're trying to recreate 693 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 1: what they had and what was really really successful for them. 694 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 1: There are a number of options that are out there 695 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: for them. We just do a couple of those out Yeah, 696 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 1: I didn't, I haven't. This was just brainstorming right on 697 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 1: the fly here during the pod. I like the ideas 698 00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 1: we got for the years we just fixed the Cardinals. 699 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 1: I don't know what those We don't know what we're 700 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 1: doing with fixed Cardinals. All right, one more game to 701 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 1: go here, let's row cold set Titans. Yeah, winner take 702 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 1: all here, winner gets into the postseason. We'll see what 703 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 1: happens there with the Houston Texans. Uh, maybe win the 704 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 1: division here for the winner of this ball game. Uh, 705 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 1: Colt's key to this ball game. Slow down Derrick Henry. 706 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 1: I mean it's pretty simple. They've done it the last 707 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 1: couple of weeks. They were able to slow down as 708 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 1: equal they slowed down. Say Kwon Barkley, gotta do it 709 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:27,880 Speaker 1: one more time here, and I think they get a 710 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 1: win here on the road against Titans. Look for the Titans, 711 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 1: they have found their identity. They play defense, they run 712 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:34,640 Speaker 1: the ball, and it doesn't really matter who is a 713 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 1: quarterback because they're gonna make the quarterback a compliment. They're 714 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 1: not gonna make him the entree when it comes to 715 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 1: the meal. The thing that you have to do if 716 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 1: you're the Titans, you gotta make sure that Derrick Henry 717 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 1: gets twenty five or more curious. If they do that, 718 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 1: then they'll have a shot. I think it's just about 719 00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 1: putting the ball in two hands. Allow him to be 720 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 1: the focal point of this offense. There you go, wait 721 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:58,480 Speaker 1: to throw all the all the games there. It's gonna 722 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 1: be man. This has always Uh it's a tough weekend 723 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:04,080 Speaker 1: because we have friends in the coaching profession and even 724 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 1: some in the in the scouting profession at the top 725 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:08,920 Speaker 1: of the ticket. Usually you'll see some changes made right 726 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,880 Speaker 1: after this season, UH scouts, and usually that happens after 727 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 1: the draft, but you will see probably a general manager 728 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:16,479 Speaker 1: to get let go. So it's it's tough. It's right 729 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 1: after the holiday season and you'll have some some firings 730 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 1: take place there on that Black Monday. UM. But it's 731 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 1: also you know, from a fans perspective, you know, speculating 732 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 1: about what's next and how they're gonna change and how 733 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 1: you're gonna get better. Uh, it's it's a fun it's 734 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 1: a fun thing as well for for the fan base. 735 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 1: So it'll be interesting to see all these changes that 736 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,800 Speaker 1: take place in what direction these teams go. We'll have 737 00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 1: all that covered for you next next week here on 738 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: Move the six Buck. As we transition over to college, 739 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 1: talked about this at the top UH scouts that get 740 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 1: out to bowl games, what are you looking for? You know? 741 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 1: The big thing for me, DJ I love going to 742 00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 1: bowl game and I love to win. All the top 743 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 1: prospects will play because you know, we know National Football 744 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 1: League is hard and it's you're talking about the best 745 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 1: versus the best. A lot of times when we go 746 00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 1: look at prospects, we don't get an opportunity to see 747 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 1: them play against A level players, And so the bowl 748 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 1: games gives you an opportunity, particularly if it's a playoff 749 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 1: game or one of the Marquee Bowl games where you 750 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,759 Speaker 1: talk about top teams bating out against one another. And 751 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:13,239 Speaker 1: so for me, I want to see how guys reacted 752 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,439 Speaker 1: and responded to playing in what was a marquee game. 753 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:19,359 Speaker 1: How did they respond to playing against some a level 754 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 1: talent at one of the opposite positions, and how did 755 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:27,279 Speaker 1: they handle the stage knowing that everyone is watching. It's 756 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:30,840 Speaker 1: a primetime event. Everyone is there because these games, to 757 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: me are as close as you can get to uh 758 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:37,360 Speaker 1: NFL games, and I always kind of gave these games 759 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 1: a little more weight when it came to doing my evaluation. 760 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 1: It may not be fair, but something about performing will 761 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 1: in a division like a conference robbalry game, a conference championship, 762 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:51,799 Speaker 1: a bowl game, a championship game, there's a little more 763 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:55,239 Speaker 1: to that because of depression expectations that come along with 764 00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 1: playing in those games. I'm with you, I always enjoy going. 765 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna get a chance to go to the 766 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 1: to the Bowl games this year, I'll be watching like 767 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:05,080 Speaker 1: everybody else, but I always look forward to getting that tape. Uh. 768 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,000 Speaker 1: So you can really dig in a couple of different things. 769 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:11,720 Speaker 1: Number One, there's no excuses. Everybody is fresh, everybody is healthy, 770 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 1: the fields are normally in great condition, the weather is great, 771 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:18,200 Speaker 1: You're playing in in good spots. So to me, it's 772 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,319 Speaker 1: really just a pure look and you've had a chance 773 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,320 Speaker 1: to get ready for an opponent. They're ready for you. 774 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 1: You have a lot of good on good big time 775 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 1: pass drusher, big time tackle scaring off, big time receiver, 776 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:29,840 Speaker 1: big time corner um so matchups all over the field 777 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:31,840 Speaker 1: that you look forward to, and I do I do. 778 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:33,400 Speaker 1: I'm with you. I put a little extra weight on 779 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,320 Speaker 1: how they perform in that stage. You don't have to 780 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 1: look back far. I mean, go back to Solomon Thomas, 781 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:39,239 Speaker 1: what he did to his draft stock that game. I 782 00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 1: think you might even have been there where you at 783 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:43,719 Speaker 1: that game of the Sun Bowls Robiski and uh Thomas. 784 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 1: He dominated the game. He looked like he was the 785 00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 1: best player on the planet during the game. For whatever reason, 786 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:53,759 Speaker 1: it hasn't worked on in San Francisco, but on that day, man, 787 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 1: he looked like a top five player. Yeah, so you 788 00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 1: see guys really help themselves with what they do in 789 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 1: those Bowl games. That's always a tape you know, you 790 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 1: always watch when we're doing players. The standard is kind 791 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 1: of three to four games you want to watch on 792 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:07,400 Speaker 1: a player, and you've got a lot of guys to do. 793 00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 1: That's really kind of where you start. And if I've 794 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 1: got all the tape in and available to me, the 795 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,560 Speaker 1: Bowl game usually is the first one I pop in. Uh, 796 00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:15,840 Speaker 1: So I want to watch that game and see how 797 00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: they do there, and I'll work backwards. Um, but man, 798 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:19,600 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a big opportunity for a lot of 799 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,760 Speaker 1: these football players, one of which um not gonna be playing. 800 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:24,439 Speaker 1: Apparently we'll get in two here in just a second, 801 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,680 Speaker 1: because we've gotta do our picks. Um buck. Uh, I'm 802 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:29,600 Speaker 1: tied with Kent here at the top. You and Sully 803 00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 1: are chasing us as we as we come here in 804 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:33,840 Speaker 1: the bowl games. But still plenty of opportunity for you 805 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 1: to catch up here. Oh ye, have plenty oportune numbers. 806 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:37,800 Speaker 1: You go. I'm throw all kinds of hail Mary's and 807 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:39,400 Speaker 1: grenades and all kinds of stuff to just blew it 808 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:41,839 Speaker 1: up because it doesn't matter either your first or your last, 809 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:43,799 Speaker 1: and doesn't matter in my book. No, I'm with you. 810 00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:47,279 Speaker 1: All right, Let's let's get going here. Alabama and Oklahoma 811 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:50,279 Speaker 1: is the two point game. And uh, let's see so 812 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:54,680 Speaker 1: far here. Kent is going Alabama, Sully's going Alabama, I'm 813 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:58,600 Speaker 1: going Alabama, and of course Bucky wait a small boomer sooner, 814 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:04,000 Speaker 1: Boomer sooner. This is Oh, we're gonna with Oklahoma in 815 00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 1: this offense, this offense, mobile quarterback tempo. I've seen Oklahoma. 816 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,960 Speaker 1: I was in the building in the Sugar Bowl in Oklahoma. Problemama, 817 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:15,240 Speaker 1: it's a problem. They don't fear roll tide. They don't fear. 818 00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:17,319 Speaker 1: They don't fear. They don't I don't know if they're 819 00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:20,399 Speaker 1: gonna be rolling. I don't know if they're gonna be rolling. Look, 820 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:24,560 Speaker 1: I'll square. Alabama might might have seven d fifty yards 821 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:27,279 Speaker 1: of offense. They might, but Oklahoma could have half, They 822 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:29,879 Speaker 1: could have a hundred, they could have a hundred. Look 823 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 1: it is gonna be This is going to be a 824 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:33,719 Speaker 1: big twilve shoot up. I'm excited to see it. I 825 00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:35,840 Speaker 1: don't know if Alabama can slow the game down the 826 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:37,960 Speaker 1: way they used to, and we've seen we saw what 827 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,239 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson was able to do. I'm not saying that 828 00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:43,240 Speaker 1: Colin Murray's Deshaun Watson, but he has him Deshaun Watson 829 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,400 Speaker 1: like stuff to him bold Bowld, I like you like 830 00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:49,839 Speaker 1: your coffee, Bowld. I'm down with that. Clemson, Notre Dame. 831 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:51,920 Speaker 1: I did mention I don't feel great about this because 832 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 1: we have our little side thing going on on ten 833 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:57,280 Speaker 1: point plus victory. Oh, don't worry about it. I've already 834 00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 1: I've already been scouting out to look houses. Did you 835 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,799 Speaker 1: deute the substance for Dexter Lawrence? I mean, I'm like, man, 836 00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:05,840 Speaker 1: it's so funny because I just had the conversation. I 837 00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 1: had the conversation with my dad about it because he 838 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:13,439 Speaker 1: had talked to dex yesterday and Dexter honestly has no 839 00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:16,040 Speaker 1: idea and until I say, look, until dex he has 840 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:17,960 Speaker 1: to figure out what it was that he took. He 841 00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:21,520 Speaker 1: did have some stuff about the nerve, like the nerve 842 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,279 Speaker 1: and nerve issue in his foot. Yeah, firing. I was like, well, 843 00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 1: maybe it was something like that, But they've had three 844 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 1: players that could be on the sideline, and look, Clemson 845 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 1: has more than enough talent to be able to control them. 846 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:35,200 Speaker 1: The dominate, but dexter inside against that running game was 847 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:39,960 Speaker 1: going to be infective without him, different, a little softer 848 00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:42,399 Speaker 1: feeling as good about my my. I'm glad I got 849 00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:44,440 Speaker 1: those tam points. I'm glad I got those tip points 850 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 1: to buffer. That's all right. I go come on, come on, Clemson, 851 00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,360 Speaker 1: let's step up. I gotta replaces the stud here. All right. 852 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:52,080 Speaker 1: Those are the two point games. Now we get to 853 00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 1: the one pointers. The Rose Bowl. No no better scenery 854 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:57,239 Speaker 1: and sports on the Rose Bowl. I wanted to go 855 00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,520 Speaker 1: with you, dub and this one against Ohio State, but 856 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:01,520 Speaker 1: I just could not do it. I think when you 857 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:03,719 Speaker 1: all went Ohio State, right, can you? What could you 858 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:05,600 Speaker 1: do it? I just don't know if they're gonna be 859 00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 1: able to consistently block that front. That's that's the challenge 860 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:09,920 Speaker 1: for men. Yeah, I'm gonna go to Ohio State this. 861 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna take the upset. I'm not gonna go 862 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:12,759 Speaker 1: with the under door. I just don't know if they 863 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,839 Speaker 1: can score enough points. Yeah, we all go Ohio State there, 864 00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:19,480 Speaker 1: all right. Next one Michigan, Florida the Peach the Peach 865 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:23,160 Speaker 1: Bowl Michigan for silly Kent and myself and bucket again 866 00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:25,920 Speaker 1: trying to pick up a point? What what what are 867 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:29,960 Speaker 1: you guys doing? Gators? Oh you guys, big Michigan. Michigan 868 00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:33,640 Speaker 1: is not playing anybody, Devon. I'm sorry. All those guys 869 00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:36,839 Speaker 1: are going. Those guys out here, training doesn't matter, It's 870 00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:41,439 Speaker 1: not gonna matter. Gator chop, go ahead, there the gator, 871 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:43,480 Speaker 1: Gator buckey. We're giving you the opportunity here to pick 872 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:45,960 Speaker 1: up some points. No, no opportunity on this next one 873 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,920 Speaker 1: because Georgia Texas. No I thought Kim might go to 874 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:51,239 Speaker 1: Texas here, No we go Georgia across the board. Can 875 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,320 Speaker 1: what happened? You've been We've been with the Longhorns a 876 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:55,239 Speaker 1: couple of times this year. Yeah. I just think in 877 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:57,960 Speaker 1: this matchup, it's just not a great matchup. If you 878 00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 1: look at Texas, they're probably gonna score twentysomething. But I 879 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:03,879 Speaker 1: think George is gonna score over thirty and probably win 880 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:07,440 Speaker 1: this by seven to ten points. There, you can't breaking 881 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 1: it down for us U. Next one, L s U? 882 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:14,040 Speaker 1: Who we got? Oh sorry, Penn State and oh no, 883 00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:15,480 Speaker 1: no you ce F and L s U. There we go, 884 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:18,719 Speaker 1: you seef, Come on, L I don't I don't know 885 00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,960 Speaker 1: what I mean. L s U. Come on, go to Yeah, 886 00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 1: we're all going that one. I'm with you, we all 887 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 1: go L s U on that one. Nothing to see here. 888 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 1: And Devin White is playing, so he could be a 889 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:30,919 Speaker 1: pick and he's gonna greedy Williams. You can play. Yeah, 890 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:33,439 Speaker 1: no greedy in that one. Penn State Kentucky. I think 891 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 1: it is good. One of the better games go on 892 00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:39,240 Speaker 1: Penn State across the board here except for kent taking 893 00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:41,960 Speaker 1: the Wildcats. He's going with a more motivated team. Can 894 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,880 Speaker 1: is using the strategy. Kentucky is gonna be motivated. New 895 00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:49,880 Speaker 1: Ye's Day Bowl. They're gonna play, and they're Josh Allen, 896 00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:53,760 Speaker 1: they're outside linebacker. He's a really good player. Benny's playing 897 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,239 Speaker 1: really good running back. Penn State's allowed a lot a 898 00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 1: lot of rush yards this year, and I think Kentucky 899 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 1: it's kind of a good matchup for them. So yeah, 900 00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:02,839 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the more motivated team and take 901 00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:05,480 Speaker 1: the Kentucky Wildcats to pull the pull the upset in 902 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:07,080 Speaker 1: this one. A little upset there, all right. I like it. 903 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:09,200 Speaker 1: One thing I never do. I never go against Kyle 904 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:10,839 Speaker 1: winning him in a bowl game. And apparently you guys 905 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:12,640 Speaker 1: got the same memo. They are in the Holiday Bowl 906 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,320 Speaker 1: in San Diego against Northwestern and we are all taking 907 00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:18,080 Speaker 1: Utah and that one it's Kyle Wittingham factor bucket, don't matter, 908 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 1: he doesn't lose, Bik. I just don't think Northwestern has 909 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:23,239 Speaker 1: enough talent to be able to knocked him off. I'm 910 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:26,760 Speaker 1: not saying that Utah. It's like at the top echelon 911 00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:28,120 Speaker 1: when it comes to town. I think they have more 912 00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 1: town to Northwest. And I think he gets his guys 913 00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:32,239 Speaker 1: a playhod. I think they went We're all going with 914 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:36,240 Speaker 1: the fighting babers here, Syracuse over West Virginia will career. 915 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 1: Bill Greer just bounced going with Syracuse and Syracuse has 916 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,880 Speaker 1: an opportunity to win ten games. They're gonna be fired 917 00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 1: up in this one, more motivated they win us. All right. 918 00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:51,000 Speaker 1: Here we go last one, Washington State in Iowa State 919 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:54,279 Speaker 1: in the Albumo Bowl. I'm going Iowa State. Can'ts go 920 00:41:54,400 --> 00:42:00,279 Speaker 1: in Iowa State like they tricked me. Washington State tricked 921 00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 1: me into Apple Cup. I went for him. I went 922 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:04,959 Speaker 1: all off. But I'm saying they owe me one. Mike 923 00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:07,799 Speaker 1: Leets owes me one. And this is when he pays 924 00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 1: me back, I see, I think. I think Washington State 925 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:12,480 Speaker 1: jumps out to an early lead, but unfortunately they just 926 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:14,399 Speaker 1: keep throwing and just lea Iowa State in the game. 927 00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:19,040 Speaker 1: That comes back to that's my parade, that's what they do. 928 00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,800 Speaker 1: And their last two ball games Washington State has been terrible. 929 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:26,719 Speaker 1: They played in Minnesota two years ago, players out pounded them, 930 00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:29,080 Speaker 1: and then last year Mark Antonio I think and I 931 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:31,680 Speaker 1: think they beat him by like forty It was a blowout. 932 00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 1: Back on track, Bucky does not feel good about that pick. 933 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 1: I'm a little nervous on this Clempson Notre Dame game though, 934 00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:40,360 Speaker 1: I'll be honest with you guys.
