26
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 2: know I'm gonna get like I'm gonna I'm gonna feel

27
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:31,039
Speaker 2: good because you feel good. I don't feel too good

28
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:34,680
Speaker 2: because today is the first Saturday where there's no football.

29
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 2: And this is always a depressing time for me. I mean,

30
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:40,960
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna lie. I just I go through it

31
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 2: every year. I talk about it, uh, you know, incessantly

32
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 2: during the season, and then we finally get here and

33
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 2: these are two great games that we're gonna have, and

34
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 2: we have, you know, the four best teams, so it's.

35
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 3: An awesome you know time for the NFL.

36
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 2: It's just again, I I I have a tough time

37
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 2: separating the end right from the apex, Like I should

38
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 2: be looking at it like this is the culmination of

39
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 2: the apex of an incredible season. Instead I look at

40
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 2: it like it's the end then where I got. I

41
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 2: got no football after this.

42
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 4: That is all very fair and very real to today's

43
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 4: like the weird day where everybody's kind of gonna sit

44
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,079
Speaker 4: there there on their couch at some point and turn

45
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 4: on the TV and be like, what am I watching

46
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 4: the Andy Griffin Show?

47
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:35,240
Speaker 5: Like what what? What?

48
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 6: What?

49
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 5: What's taking the TV controllers. I don't know why I

50
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:37,919
Speaker 5: picked the.

51
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 4: Most random thing in the world, but it is. It's

52
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 4: you could tell yesterday the TV must have gotten weird

53
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 4: for me. But now there is there is some level

54
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 4: of just sitting around at being like okay. And certainly

55
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:52,640
Speaker 4: you'll find this out in a couple of weeks, but

56
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,239
Speaker 4: the week after the Super Bowl, that's a weekend that

57
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 4: I think feels lost, Like everybody feels a little lost,

58
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 4: right Like, you know, I understand its sports fanatics. We're

59
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 4: all going to get March madness right around the corner,

60
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 4: and you know, then we'll have the draft and free

61
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 4: agency and all these things that.

62
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:07,639
Speaker 5: People love to talk about. And I get that there's

63
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,920
Speaker 5: always something happening in the world of sports.

64
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 4: But this week was a good example though, this is

65
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 4: this is my beacon of light, this my messaging of hope.

66
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 5: Think about it.

67
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 4: This week was so chaotic in the coaching hires that

68
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 4: it felt like we almost forgot that there were games,

69
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:22,679
Speaker 4: Like that's.

70
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 5: How great the drama was off the field.

71
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 4: Now, look, we do this because we love the drama

72
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 4: on the field, but my god, just the fact that

73
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 4: Bill Belichick is sitting here without a job today is

74
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 4: in many minds more significant even than the games that

75
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 4: are going.

76
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 5: To happen tomorrow.

77
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 4: So my beacon of light in the dark, dark world

78
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 4: is that even when there's not football to sit there

79
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 4: and watch, there's still going to be football to think about,

80
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 4: talk about, and react to, because it's just part of

81
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 4: the consciousness of everything we do.

82
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 2: So what I want to ask you this because you know,

83
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 2: I know, I know what kind of you know. You

84
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 2: and I share the love of football, and you know,

85
00:03:58,160 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 2: college the NFL whole thing.

86
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 3: What's your next go to? Like?

87
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 2: Are you hoop? Are you a hoope? Are you college basketball?

88
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 3: And BA? Because I do? I mean that I am

89
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 3: in it all.

90
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 2: You know, I love all sports, So I am an

91
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 2: NBA freaking I love baseball the whole thing.

92
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 3: What's your what's your next like? Go to college hoop?

93
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 5: Yeah?

94
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 4: No, so yeah, I'm a big college hoops like I

95
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 4: just I love that experience.

96
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 5: There's something to me, you know.

97
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 4: Look, growing up in Vegas, UNLV hasn't been sustainably good

98
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 4: in a very long time, So it's not like I'm

99
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 4: flocking to watch my favorite team go win championships. There

100
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 4: are such incredible experiences, like even watching game day last

101
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:41,600
Speaker 4: weekend and just seeing some of the the you know, campus.

102
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 3: Vibe that happens.

103
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,840
Speaker 4: Like there's just something about college basketball games the student

104
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 4: sections that I could sit there and watch all day long.

105
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 5: So it becomes very contagious for me, Like I am weirdly,

106
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 5: I'm I'm a.

107
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 4: Fan of just sitting back and watching that I don't

108
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 4: care about the result of really good Big Ten basketball

109
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,480
Speaker 4: because it feels like those rivalries hit and like everybody

110
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 4: just wants to go at each other, and the student

111
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 4: sections are fire, and I love watching SEC basketball like

112
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,479
Speaker 4: those there's those two things just it's the same, like

113
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 4: they've they've invested a lot to get there over the

114
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,919
Speaker 4: last ten years. But yeah, I could sit back and

115
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 4: watch you know, college basketball every day anyway. But yeah,

116
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 4: I'll start gearing up for the tournament the day after

117
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 4: the Super Bowl.

118
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 3: It is.

119
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 2: I'm just having this conversation the other day because I

120
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 2: uh about college basketball.

121
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 3: And.

122
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:31,719
Speaker 2: I have to say, I miss those big coaches like

123
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,080
Speaker 2: we went through And this is going to get us

124
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,480
Speaker 2: into the theme of the day. Because before we get

125
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,559
Speaker 2: into all the you know, the games and everything else,

126
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 2: you know, Belichick not getting the Atlanta job and look

127
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 2: looking like he's not going to work. I miss those coaches.

128
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 2: I do like college basketball. There's such a big part

129
00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,279
Speaker 2: of it, right, Like, you know, I don't know what

130
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,160
Speaker 2: you know again, and I don't know if it's because

131
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 2: you know, I grew up as a kid in the eighties, right,

132
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 2: so I saw you know, John Thompson, and you know

133
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:17,040
Speaker 2: you mentioned UNLV, you know Jerry Tartanian and you know

134
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 2: Rolei Masamino and all these dudes like right, Dean Smith, right,

135
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:25,679
Speaker 2: Roy Williams, like all these like these bigger than all

136
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,479
Speaker 2: through you know, with dear friend of mine, Jay Wright,

137
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 2: and I like I missed these guys, right, Like, there's

138
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 2: not a like those coaches are such a big part

139
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,919
Speaker 2: of that landscape because you know why they're the coach.

140
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 5: The year A thousand percent, right, And that's part of why.

141
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 4: You know, I said this all on Twitter and a

142
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,279
Speaker 4: tweet that is, you know, Twitter lacks nuance, But I

143
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,279
Speaker 4: said this a couple of days ago with Harmon and

144
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,919
Speaker 4: Saban gone, who becomes the new face of college football?

145
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 5: My next the next line of the tweets an important one.

146
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 4: I said, who's the polarizing figure that lover or hate

147
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 4: you have to watch? And you know, I've gotten absolutely

148
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,599
Speaker 4: killed by Georgia fans that didn't think I'm an idiot

149
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,919
Speaker 4: for not saying that that was Kirby Smart from the

150
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:09,159
Speaker 4: get go.

151
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 5: But Kirby Smart isn't polarizing like that.

152
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 4: And I use college basketball as an example because I

153
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 4: was covering it the last year at Coach k And

154
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 4: you think about what the level of attention to Douke

155
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 4: is for casuals. I'm not talking about diehards. I'm just

156
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 4: talking about casual fans that are tuning in. You think

157
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,880
Speaker 4: about post Coach k posts, Troy Williams, like post j

158
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 4: Wright like, it becomes tougher and tougher because, especially in

159
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 4: a transfer portal world like we're in this situation where

160
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 4: kids are going to change schools as often as they

161
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 4: need to to get what they want in their life, right,

162
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 4: So it becomes more and more important that there are

163
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 4: certain coaches and certainly you know, Dion has become polarizing.

164
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 4: I'm not talking about greatness. I'm just talking about like

165
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 4: every show, it doesn't matter what network you're watching. Every

166
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 4: show will blow up because this coach talked to him.

167
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 4: Because they know that people will react good or bad.

168
00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 4: Like Madonna in the eighties, people will react good or bad.

169
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 4: There are very few coaches that move the needle in

170
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 4: college football, for example, just lost two of them. So

171
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 4: I think college basketball has struggled mightily in casual attention

172
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 4: to replace huge names, and that that hurts the sport

173
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 4: long term.

174
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 3: It does.

175
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 2: And these coaches and obviously you know you mentioned saving

176
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 2: doesn't get bigger. We'd save any coach k and these

177
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 2: these you know, mythical figures, they're the constant, right like,

178
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 2: so while the roster changes, and especially you said with

179
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 2: the portal and it just moves, those guys are are

180
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 2: the glue, and they become the constant of a program.

181
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:45,200
Speaker 3: So you're the face of a program.

182
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 2: And now with the way coaches move and the way

183
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,680
Speaker 2: coaches get fired and the way they move quickly, and

184
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 2: you know, I mean listen, we all kind of thought

185
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 2: horrible would go to you know, the Chargers, That's kind

186
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 2: of what we thought would happen. But now that you

187
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 2: know that's a big you know, all of a sudden,

188
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:08,559
Speaker 2: now Michigan loses the big face. Alabama has lost a

189
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 2: big face. Like those faces are important.

190
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 4: Dan, And when you think about the future, the other

191
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 4: thing it takes is a high level of winning, right,

192
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 4: So you have to you have to be a face

193
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 4: in some way where everybody cares, you know. And that's

194
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 4: the thing that we can all acknowledge that when Harbaugh speaks,

195
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 4: it's larger than any sport.

196
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 5: And that's it just has been for the last several years.

197
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 4: And whether that's because you loved him or hate him.

198
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 4: But he also won a national championship this year. So

199
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 4: the winning was where he finally figured out a way

200
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 4: to be Ohio State, right, And so there's no question

201
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,959
Speaker 4: about that when you when you think about saman my god,

202
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 4: the level of just sustained success that the.

203
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 5: Brand is at.

204
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,079
Speaker 4: I think there are guys that in college football currently

205
00:09:56,120 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 4: are that debo. But Lane, you know a lot of

206
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,319
Speaker 4: people say, well, Lane Kiffin's that guy. Well, Lane hasn't

207
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 4: won at a level to make him on the same

208
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,880
Speaker 4: the whole world, casual fans that barely know college football

209
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 4: aren't sitting there saying, oh my god, Lane Kiffin like,

210
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 4: but he's entertaining to those of us that love the sports.

211
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:14,679
Speaker 5: Like it's it's.

212
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 4: An interesting line to try and figure out, you know,

213
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,120
Speaker 4: success and marketing and all of these things that come

214
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,719
Speaker 4: together in one car. Like it's just I don't I

215
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 4: don't envy anyone trying to figure that out right now.

216
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:25,559
Speaker 5: And by the way, I.

217
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 4: Mean, I think Michigan probably had a much better succession plan.

218
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 4: But it's also going to be interesting to see if

219
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 4: different brands start to become popular through this process too.

220
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,679
Speaker 4: Like it's it's a very transitional time for college football

221
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,080
Speaker 4: and now without Belichick, I think the NFL.

222
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know, and that's why I bring up

223
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 2: college basketball team because I think it's hurt the sport.

224
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 2: I think I think it has. I think it's lost

225
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 2: a little bit of that you know, juice by losing

226
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 2: those big names. And the problem with losing those big

227
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:01,439
Speaker 2: names is when they all go at once. That's a

228
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 2: major thing. When you're losing coach k and Roy Williams

229
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 2: and Jay Wright within the same kind of short span

230
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 2: that that's that that affects you. So the big news

231
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 2: this week in the coaching ranks was Raheem Morris. No Belichick.

232
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:23,200
Speaker 2: Belichick taught is in there twice. We all kind of thought.

233
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 2: At least I did that it was going to be

234
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 2: a foregone conclusion that he would be in Atlanta, because

235
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 2: I thought it just made so much sense, good young defense,

236
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:34,320
Speaker 2: uh skill people.

237
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 3: You just had to get the quarterback.

238
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 2: The franchise with Arthur Blank that is hired a lot

239
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 2: of guys from the Belichick and the Patriot way right

240
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,439
Speaker 2: in the Belichick you know, Tree to meet Thomas de Metrofica.

241
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 2: You know, they they've been through it, so they're they're

242
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 2: real familiar with with the Patriots and Bill. So I

243
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 2: was surprised. Now, I know they feel real good about

244
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,320
Speaker 2: Raheem and he's been in the building and Arthur feels

245
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 2: comfortable with him, but I was surprised that a guy

246
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,319
Speaker 2: like Belichick and Hills Yelk is out.

247
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 4: I think it is It's stunning to kind of have

248
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:18,440
Speaker 4: to sit here now and realize and I think this

249
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 4: is very likely, like there may not.

250
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,319
Speaker 5: Be a hole for him anymore.

251
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:24,200
Speaker 3: You know.

252
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:26,839
Speaker 4: This is the funny thing, is what we're going to

253
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,319
Speaker 4: do as a society is as next year, the minute

254
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 4: somebody struggles, it's going to be well, Belichick, Belichick, Belichick.

255
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 4: But when you think about the things that happened this

256
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,559
Speaker 4: year to have two interviews with the Falcons, who I

257
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,319
Speaker 4: agree with you in a lot of ways, felt like

258
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 4: it made sense. But the more I talk to people

259
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,920
Speaker 4: that know the organization well and people in Atlanta that

260
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 4: know the city well, it seemed like a lot of

261
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,960
Speaker 4: people in Atlanta had very little interest in Belichick. They

262
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,680
Speaker 4: didn't want him. So you know, we start looking around it. Yeah,

263
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 4: like I talked to former players and the concept that

264
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 4: it was an attempt at a quick fixed number one,

265
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:04,559
Speaker 4: but number two, no quarterback, not sure that it would work.

266
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 5: But number three.

267
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 4: And I heard this from four or five different people

268
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 4: that know Atlanta, that cover Atlanta sports, that know the

269
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 4: team culturally.

270
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 5: It just didn't feel like it was a fit the

271
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:15,079
Speaker 5: city wanted. Like it's just.

272
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,960
Speaker 4: Nobody down there was excited about the concept of Belichick.

273
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,320
Speaker 4: He just doesn't fit in with who Atlanta wants to be.

274
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 4: And everybody can debate whether or not that's right or wrong,

275
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,679
Speaker 4: but man, you know this being in Philly, like, certain

276
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 4: cities have identities and you can get in trouble trying

277
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 4: to always hire for that.

278
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 5: But I strongly the.

279
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 4: People that I talked to the cover sports or have

280
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 4: covered or played for the Falcons down there, made it

281
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 4: pretty clear that overall the city didn't feel like culturally

282
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 4: like Belichick was it for them?

283
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 5: Man, So you know, I think that that plays into

284
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:48,600
Speaker 5: part of this.

285
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 4: So you know, you just got to look around and think,

286
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 4: all right, so where's Bill gonna go next year?

287
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 5: Because the Cowboys didn't.

288
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,200
Speaker 4: Make a move for him, the Eagles didn't make a

289
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 4: move from all the rumors that people wanted to try

290
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,960
Speaker 4: and make make didn't make a move for him. And

291
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 4: whether it's because he's stuck in his ways or he'd

292
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 4: have to bring in his whole staff where he's seventy one,

293
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,560
Speaker 4: like all of these different things, those conversations aren't going

294
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 4: to be different in a year. So if you're Bill

295
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:13,560
Speaker 4: and you don't want to be part of a rebuild,

296
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,720
Speaker 4: you only want to take over an existing brand. I

297
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:18,959
Speaker 4: don't really know what existing brand in a year is

298
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 4: going to feel even more solid about Bill. I think

299
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 4: there's a better chance that Bill becomes Bill Kawer at

300
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 4: this point. Then he stands on the sideline again.

301
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 2: Wow, And I look at it and go like, and

302
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 2: there's two left in Seattle, which when you move on

303
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:35,760
Speaker 2: from Pete Carroll you're not going to go Bill Belichick

304
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 2: and Washington which is waiting for Ben Johnson. So you're right,

305
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 2: there's nothing now, so you're on to next year. And

306
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 2: then when next year comes, seventy one turns seventy two. Yeah,

307
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 2: I mean that's very real. I have to say, though,

308
00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 2: I don't get like I like, if I'm Atlanta, and

309
00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 2: all due respect to Raheem Mars, I don't understand the

310
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 2: don't the culture thing, like the fit don't fit in.

311
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 2: First of all, the Falcons have had Patriot you know,

312
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 2: direction for years in the front off. Yeah like what

313
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 2: what like what by the way, the guy can't coach,

314
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 2: Like suddenly he's not he's not good? Quick fix there there.

315
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 2: They should have won that division, right or wrong?

316
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, I did right. I don't disagree with that at all.

317
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 4: I think, you know, again, going back to some of

318
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 4: my conversations, it felt like you're not bringing him Belichick though,

319
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 4: to you know, pulls you for the next ten years.

320
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 4: And that's something that Arthur Blank seems to want, or

321
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 4: Rich McKay wants, somebody in that building wants, and you

322
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,680
Speaker 4: know that that wouldn't be your situation there.

323
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 3: Also with the ten year to just debate that real quick.

324
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 2: The ten year thing, I mean the way guys go through,

325
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 2: which is pretty serious, like get it for five years, right,

326
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 2: like you know, like shoot for five it's try to

327
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 2: win a super Bowl.

328
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,160
Speaker 4: I mean, you're not wrong because like if we're sitting

329
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 4: here saying, well, where's the team, like I've said the

330
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 4: same to your point about Harball whenever when anybody says

331
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 4: with the Chargers, well, he doesn't stay anywhere long. If

332
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 4: I'm the Chargers, I don't give a damn. I want

333
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 4: to win a super Bowl right now. So if you

334
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 4: can go win me a super Bowl, I'm gonna go

335
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 4: take him right like. That makes total sense to me.

336
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 4: But there there is at least the sense.

337
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 5: You know, again, I don't know Atlanta that well.

338
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,360
Speaker 4: I know several people from Atlanta that live in Atlanta

339
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 4: that are around Atlanta. But the sense I got from

340
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 4: media people and from former players was that the fan

341
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 4: base isn't interested in him, that the city's not interested

342
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,800
Speaker 4: in him, that it's just that that's not the style

343
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 4: of how they want their city represented in their sports team.

344
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 4: So it's look, I don't I don't have a great

345
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 4: answer on the why or how that would be the case,

346
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 4: because I'm a big believer in winning fixes everything. But man,

347
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 4: it's certainly didn't feel like most people that I talked to. Frankly,

348
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:07,160
Speaker 4: I didn't find anybody from in or around Atlanta that I.

349
00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 5: Talked to that was excited about the concept of Belichick.

350
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:12,200
Speaker 4: I found the closest I could get was one of

351
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:15,719
Speaker 4: my Yahoo co hosts that is a lifelong die our

352
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 4: Falcons fan, and he's like, yeah, I think it's fine.

353
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 4: And we were doing a show as Rahiem Morris was hired,

354
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,960
Speaker 4: and his reaction to that was the same as it

355
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:23,920
Speaker 4: would have been to Belichick.

356
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 5: He's like, great, good, we need a quarterback cause that's fine.

357
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:30,400
Speaker 4: So there was no great excitement from the city anyway

358
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:31,400
Speaker 4: about wanting him.

359
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:32,320
Speaker 5: So I feel like.

360
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 3: That when's that city ever excited about the Falcons?

361
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:38,560
Speaker 5: Yeah?

362
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,679
Speaker 4: At now that is that's a conversation point B that

363
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 4: the city of Atlanta could use some juice when it

364
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 4: comes to listen.

365
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 2: It's great, great college football town. It's amazing college football town.

366
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 2: But the Falcons have always been to step sister to

367
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 2: college football. So I don't know, you get a chance

368
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,399
Speaker 2: to go, guy have a name like Belichick and you're

369
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 2: going to tell me he forgot the coach uh or

370
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 2: forgot how to coach.

371
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:05,119
Speaker 3: I gotta ask you coming up.

372
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 2: The there is a guy I I I hate to

373
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 2: bring this up because I've said this before, but there's

374
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,919
Speaker 2: a guy out there who I know very well, who

375
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 2: is an amazing coach. He never gets a sniff as

376
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:27,359
Speaker 2: a head coach. And I gotta ask you why, all right,

377
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:29,919
Speaker 2: because it's it's.

378
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 3: Been eating it's been eating me up and it kind

379

00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 3: are back in the final four?

417
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 2: I probably have no business now we're gonna get the

418
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:54,639
Speaker 2: Mahomes greatness coming up, because I was going over his

419
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,639
Speaker 2: playoffs and go, you know, I mean, it's ridiculous, right,

420
00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 2: So we're going to get into how great he is

421
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 2: and Andy's terrific coach. But the one another constant has

422
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:09,680
Speaker 2: been what they've done defensively. And it's not like they've

423
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 2: put a ton of resources in there defensively, what Steve

424
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 2: Spagnolo has done with that Chiefs defense and this year

425
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 2: they rode their defense. He just wins. He's an incredible

426
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 2: coordinator or a team that spends all the money on

427
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:31,680
Speaker 2: offense and all they do is win. Yet this guy

428
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 2: doesn't even get an interview, and I just don't get it.

429
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:41,160
Speaker 2: I know that in eight, I guess it was seven

430
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,400
Speaker 2: and eight he was in he was with Saint Louis.

431
00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 3: And the Rams.

432
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 2: He was in it with a team that had one

433
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 2: foot out the door, that was looking to go to

434
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:57,400
Speaker 2: Los Angeles, that had no resources, and they blow them out.

435
00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:01,119
Speaker 2: After his quarterback franchise courts back that he drafts his

436
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:06,200
Speaker 2: second year gets hurt in Sam Bradford, I mean, whatever,

437
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 2: but that guy, for somebody deserves the second chance. It's

438
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:16,800
Speaker 2: that dude, who now forgot like he stops guys like

439
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:20,440
Speaker 2: I don't understand it, Fitzie, So.

440
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 4: You would know this more than me. But because I

441
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:24,680
Speaker 4: don't know him at all, and I don't know what

442
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:28,000
Speaker 4: level of relationship you've had with him, does he want

443
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:28,880
Speaker 4: to be a head coach again?

444
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 5: Because the only reason I ask.

445
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 2: Him, he's one of the most humble guys. Listen, full disclosure.

446
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:39,639
Speaker 2: He's a dear friend, all right, So you know whatever.

447
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 2: I'm not trying to, you know, do the pulpit thing.

448
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,400
Speaker 2: But I just I go, I don't get I'm sitting

449
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 2: there like, listen, you don't get a job, you don't

450
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 2: get a job, whatever, But he don't even get interviews,

451
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,120
Speaker 2: and like that to me is my boggling.

452
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 4: Well, I only asked because I always keep this context

453
00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 4: in my mind. When I worked with Jack del Rio

454
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,679
Speaker 4: for a little bit after he'd been fired by the Raiders,

455
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:05,880
Speaker 4: it was funny talking to him in the halls one

456
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 4: day and he was just saying, man, I don't ever

457
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 4: want to be a head coach again. I just like

458
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 4: coaching defense, and so there are guys like that. That's

459
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 4: why I ask. I think the other part of it

460
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:18,120
Speaker 4: is you've done a beautiful job. You've done a beautiful

461
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 4: job of giving some context. I think sometimes because I

462
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:23,679
Speaker 4: had to go look it up what you mentioned, I

463
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:27,600
Speaker 4: remembered that it wasn't great in his head coaching past,

464
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:30,960
Speaker 4: but I didn't remember how bad two of this years were, right,

465
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,280
Speaker 4: like one in fifteen seven and nine, two and fourteen.

466
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,879
Speaker 5: There's context to that though, And I screamed that loudly.

467
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,800
Speaker 4: I don't think and I'll say the same thing about

468
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:41,240
Speaker 4: Raheem even getting this job.

469
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 5: Like I think sometimes hiring somebody that's.

470
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 4: Been in the big boy seat before for another chance

471
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 4: is actually really smart because they come in the second

472
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 4: time better understanding.

473
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:53,080
Speaker 5: And again, I'll take.

474
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 2: You three guys like I like, I'll tell you I

475
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 2: think Raheem mar is gonna be good. Right, so listen,

476
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 2: you go, rah Mars over Belichick, you know, or anybody

477
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 2: over Belichick. Resume wise, he is an eyebrow raise. But

478
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 2: I like, you know, I could say, I do think

479
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:17,920
Speaker 2: you learn so much off that first year of the

480
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:19,960
Speaker 2: first statement or whatever you want to call it, and

481
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:21,800
Speaker 2: I think you're spot on.

482
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 3: I do.

483
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 4: I had one former coach tell me that he realized

484
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 4: after the first time that he got so worked up

485
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:33,639
Speaker 4: over everything that didn't matter, and the biggest difference was

486
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:35,960
Speaker 4: the second time he was able to come in and

487
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 4: better delegate. Okay, these are the things that are actually important,

488
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:40,399
Speaker 4: So I'm going to have somebody handle this, so I

489
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 4: don't have to do somebody handle.

490
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,160
Speaker 5: This I to but those little things.

491
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:47,879
Speaker 4: The understanding of being a CEO is far different than

492
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:50,199
Speaker 4: the understanding of being grade at x's and o's. And

493
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 4: that's something even last week when I was I was

494
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 4: talking to Dominique Foxworth for a while and we were

495
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 4: talking about the Ravens and Harball, and one thing he

496
00:24:58,359 --> 00:24:59,880
Speaker 4: said is he said, man, there were times at Harbor

497
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:02,439
Speaker 4: would come into the room and you knew that he

498
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 4: had no idea what the x's and o's were that

499
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 4: weekend for the defense. It just that wasn't even on

500
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 4: his radar. He didn't care about that. He was coming

501
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 4: in the room to be a CEO and make sure

502
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:13,800
Speaker 4: that he cared about all of us as human beings

503
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,879
Speaker 4: and that everything was being done thoroughly right. Like he

504
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:20,159
Speaker 4: was a great in fox Worth's time playing in Baltimore,

505
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:22,479
Speaker 4: he thought what made Harball really great was that he

506
00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 4: understood the role of the CEO.

507
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 5: I think a lot of first.

508
00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:29,120
Speaker 4: Time coaches just struggle to figure out how to balance

509
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,520
Speaker 4: what they're great at versus balancing the role of being

510
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:32,160
Speaker 4: a CEO.

511
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 5: That's not always easy for some guys.

512
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 4: So I think second chances for coaches can be a

513
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 4: real like you can get a real opportunity to see

514
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:41,199
Speaker 4: a coach come in and shine.

515
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 5: I'm not one that comes in and says.

516
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 2: Oh, say second chance, because I use that and there's

517
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 2: a stigma.

518
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:54,119
Speaker 4: It's weird, the second opportunity. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're actually

519
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:54,440
Speaker 4: you're right.

520
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 5: I have to figure out how better.

521
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:59,280
Speaker 4: But you're also right as somebody that plays against Spags

522
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:03,679
Speaker 4: defense sears a Raiders fan, the amount of And I

523
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 4: said this to somebody earlier today because they kept saying

524
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 4: or yesterday, I should say, they kept talking about the

525
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 4: Chiefs defense this year being so good. This isn't just

526
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 4: this year, Like the Chiefs defense has been on an

527
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,760
Speaker 4: ascension for years at this point, like they have become

528
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:22,239
Speaker 4: a very good and at times patch work and it

529
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,120
Speaker 4: hasn't slowed them down. I think I think SPACs has

530
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 4: done a flat out brilliant job with the Chiefs and somebody.

531
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you, right, now and I have all

532
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:38,600
Speaker 2: biases personal relationship aside. I mean, you know whatever, he's

533
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 2: the best defensive coordinator in the league. And I'll put

534
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 2: up numbers whatever. Like the guy goes places and knows

535
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 2: how to win, and he just he puts together a defense. Uh,

536
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:59,199
Speaker 2: that's exciting that it's not just one dimensional people go

537
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:02,200
Speaker 2: all you know, blitz blitz, blitz, yes and no. And

538
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 2: like he'll have four different game plans like you listen

539
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 2: and I he respects the game a lot, you know,

540
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 2: like he'll just if I were, if I were were

541
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,639
Speaker 2: to have him on right now, he'd say, yeah, man,

542
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 2: Lamark's a handful, kept me up all week long, right,

543
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 2: and he means it. But like he'll have four different

544
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,919
Speaker 2: game plans to throw at the Ravens on Sunday. Now,

545
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,720
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's going to work. I mean,

546
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,199
Speaker 2: they look like they're on a you know, they're on

547
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 2: that path. But he'll have four different game plans, like

548
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 2: you know, you look at what he does and how

549
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:38,679
Speaker 2: he'll take guys out. It's really impressive.

550
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 4: There is my constant coaching analogy. Is this because you

551
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 4: know they in a fat kidding me. I love I

552
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 4: love food TV shows, and I love Chopped. I've always

553
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:53,240
Speaker 4: loved Chopped, right, And when you watch Chopped on food TV,

554
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,639
Speaker 4: they open up a basket of ingredients and it doesn't

555
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:57,879
Speaker 4: matter what they have, they have to make something by

556
00:27:57,880 --> 00:27:58,200
Speaker 4: the end.

557
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 5: Of the show week that looks chocolate tasty.

558
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:02,960
Speaker 3: Salmon.

559
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,359
Speaker 4: Look, man, there have been plenty of times that it

560
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:09,440
Speaker 4: feels like over the last couple of years that, due

561
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,639
Speaker 4: to injuries, like Spags has been cooking with you know,

562
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:16,199
Speaker 4: Kiwi spam and some other thing that nobody's ever heard of,

563
00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:18,919
Speaker 4: and by the end of it, you're getting this like

564
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:22,119
Speaker 4: four star. Oh my god, meil Right, then, that's what

565
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 4: the best coach is. The best coaches can take whatever

566
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:26,320
Speaker 4: ingredients you give them and find a way to turn

567
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 4: something out of it. The Chiefs Defense has definitely done

568
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 4: that without question.

569
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 3: You know.

570
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:35,959
Speaker 2: It's it's interesting because a lot of the we in

571
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 2: the league, we clamor for the next young genius. And listen,

572
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 2: Shanahan McVeigh, you got two great ones right there. Well,

573
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:58,240
Speaker 2: for every one of those guys, you got to Brandon Staley.

574
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:04,280
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm I'm watching Nick Sirianni on his in

575
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,480
Speaker 2: his news conference and listen, I liked nick A ton

576
00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 2: I did what I think. He's a you know, bright guy,

577
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 2: but that spiral was was one of the worst things

578
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:18,239
Speaker 2: I've ever seen when the Eagle spiral there was a

579
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 2: death spiral and their offense had no answers. And he's

580
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 2: an offensive coach, Like I keep going back to him going, dude.

581
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:29,239
Speaker 3: Like you can.

582
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 2: You had to have taken over the play calling. You've

583
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 2: had to try to fix this thing. I saw the

584
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 2: same RPL. I had Lane Johnson on my on uh

585
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 2: My show with Baldi Fitzie, and Lane was talking about

586
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 2: how the league adjusted to them and they had no answers. Well,

587
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:52,600
Speaker 2: if that's not an indictment of your offensive coach, then

588
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 2: what is.

589
00:29:55,320 --> 00:30:01,200
Speaker 4: God that's so frustrating because again, you know, I'll go

590
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,920
Speaker 4: back to cooking shows because I'm hungry this morning.

591
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:05,680
Speaker 5: How often we watching one of those.

592
00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:06,920
Speaker 4: Shows where all of a sudden they're like, all right,

593
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:09,160
Speaker 4: midway through, we're gonna drop down a new secret ingredient.

594
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 4: You got to be able to adapt, Like, being able

595
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 4: to adapt is a huge part. And if the locker

596
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 4: room starts to believe that you can't adapt, that's how

597
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 4: you lose a locker room too. Like that there it

598
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 4: is so hard to regain. It's it's almost impossible to

599
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,720
Speaker 4: regain the respect of a locker room once you've lost it.

600
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:29,239
Speaker 5: You have to be so careful with that.

601
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 4: I have to wonder if players are starting to feel like, man,

602
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 4: we can't we can't adjust to.

603
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 5: Any of this.

604
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 4: Where one trip pony they figured the trick out. Man,

605
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:40,360
Speaker 4: that's that's gonna be hard to change the mindset on

606
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,720
Speaker 4: that takes. That takes a lot of relationships behind the

607
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:47,040
Speaker 4: scenes to even get that opportunity. So that that's that's

608
00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 4: a worst case scenario for a coach.

609
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, it really is. I gotta tell you, man, I

610
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:56,600
Speaker 2: you know, Fitzy, it was.

611
00:30:57,800 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 3: It was.

612
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 2: It was bad, like you know, like, how do you

613
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 2: fix that? Like, I mean, that was that first of all,

614
00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 2: they ran those RPOs and that r PO offense is dead.

615
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 2: It's a dead offense. You look at it. You can't

616
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 2: have your whole offense b r PO without any movement,

617
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 2: without any all they all anybody ever did then was

618
00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 2: blitzed them. When you blitzed the Eagles, you knew you

619
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:27,080
Speaker 2: had success because they had no answers. How could you

620
00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:32,160
Speaker 2: have no answers for a freaking pressure for blitzing, how could.

621
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 3: You have no answer? How could there be no hot reads?

622
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 3: Tell me, hmm, it's.

623
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 2: Not having the answer book to all those pressures. He

624
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,840
Speaker 2: because he had nowhere to go with. He didn't look

625
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 2: at him. I mean, he regressed because there was no

626
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 2: answers that the coaches didn't provide for.

627
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:59,040
Speaker 4: The biggest advantage you have on the offensive side of

628
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,160
Speaker 4: the ball. We heard this lot going into the last

629
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:03,360
Speaker 4: couple of weeks with bad weather, is you know what's

630
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 4: coming right, so right, the biggest disadvantage you suddenly have

631
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 4: is when the defense knows what's coming to and you

632
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:09,800
Speaker 4: can't do.

633
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 5: Anything to disguise it.

634
00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 4: Right, that's you've taken away the one inherent advantage and

635
00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 4: offense is supposed to have if the defense can just

636
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 4: look at it, know exactly what you're gonna do, and

637
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 4: then you bet you're just praying that you can.

638
00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:23,200
Speaker 5: Out execute him. It worked on the Brotherly Shove. It

639
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 5: works for the most part. That's great. One yard at

640
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 5: a time, you're not really gonna win a.

641
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:29,040
Speaker 4: Football game, right, So you've got to be able to

642
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:30,960
Speaker 4: disguise what you're doing, and you've got to be able

643
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 4: to do enough things. I think this is the one

644
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:35,600
Speaker 4: thing we forget about. You got to be able to

645
00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 4: do enough things out of one formation, one instance, to

646
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 4: confuse what the other team's doing. I don't think Philly

647
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 4: really did that at all over the last third of

648
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 4: the season, right like they just sort of lined up

649
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 4: and it was like, we're gonna do what we do.

650
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:49,720
Speaker 4: You're gonna do what you do, and it's gonna be fine.

651
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:53,760
Speaker 4: And you know, quick, quick, quick hint. Here was not fine.

652
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:56,680
Speaker 4: So they've got to figure that out. And I always

653
00:32:56,720 --> 00:33:00,320
Speaker 4: feel like an off season is lost if you can't

654
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:02,280
Speaker 4: walk in and say this is the one thing we

655
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,720
Speaker 4: have to fix to get better. And I don't think

656
00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:06,400
Speaker 4: Philly can look in the mirror right now and have

657
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:08,720
Speaker 4: one thing like it just feels like it's a lot

658
00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:09,200
Speaker 4: more than that.

659
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,080
Speaker 3: I know, I know, well, we got lots to do.

660
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 2: We're gonna get into all four teams and the story

661
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:19,160
Speaker 2: behind all four teams. But my heart goes out to Buffalo.

662
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,280
Speaker 2: We got to talk about Buffalo. I heard Bernie talk

663
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 2: about him this morning. That's such another just tough loss.

664
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 2: And then we'll start breaking down some of the storylines

665
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:32,160
Speaker 2: behind the championship games.

666
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:33,200

683
00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:34,680
Speaker 3: Sorrow? Do you feel it? To Yah? You've had that empathy?

684
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 4: I do, And I think the hardest part about it

685
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:44,279
Speaker 4: is trying to find the line of appreciating the greatness

686
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:47,400
Speaker 4: when the result isn't what anybody wanted, right Like. I

687
00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:50,719
Speaker 4: got frustrated, honestly, and you know I'm not one to

688
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:54,080
Speaker 4: usually sit here and get frustrated in coverage, But man,

689
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 4: I got frustrated in the way people were talking about

690
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,439
Speaker 4: Josh Allen, who, Yeah, he missed the Stefan Digg's throw

691
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:01,279
Speaker 4: over the middle late in the game. I won't say

692
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:03,520
Speaker 4: he missed it. He was more aggressive in his decision there.

693
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:07,480
Speaker 4: It didn't work out fine, But to sit there and

694
00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:09,880
Speaker 4: say anything about Josh Allen and the way, like I

695
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:13,239
Speaker 4: thought he played incredibly well in that game, as he

696
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,880
Speaker 4: has every single time and the number of times. This

697
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:18,879
Speaker 4: is one of those difficult things where I can't tell

698
00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:21,399
Speaker 4: you what's going to get a better result other than

699
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:24,480
Speaker 4: hopefully they can restock the cupboard on the defensive side

700
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 4: of the ball in some ways and then just get

701
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:28,880
Speaker 4: that lucky time that finally you take him down. But

702
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:31,640
Speaker 4: you know, I was frustrated by some of the narratives

703
00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:35,080
Speaker 4: around Josh Allen after that game, like he personally can't

704
00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:37,200
Speaker 4: get through and it's like, my god, what else are

705
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 4: we asking? I feel like we just have to accept

706
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 4: the fact that when you are taking on the juggernaut

707
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 4: known as Mahomes and Reed, there are going to be

708
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:46,879
Speaker 4: years you don't beat him. And that's the same thing

709
00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:50,400
Speaker 4: I would have said about Mike Tomlin and Ben Roethlisberger

710
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:52,920
Speaker 4: for years when there were some Steelers fans that were like, oh,

711
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:54,240
Speaker 4: we haven't won enough super Bowls.

712
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:57,680
Speaker 5: Well, there's a reason, right, Like, there's a reason that.

713
00:35:57,640 --> 00:35:59,839
Speaker 4: The Bills are having a hard time getting through what

714
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:01,799
Speaker 4: could turn out to be one of, if not the

715
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:05,560
Speaker 4: greatest coach quarterback combos of all time. It's just kissed

716
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:08,040
Speaker 4: by the football gods. Impressive what Mahomes did. But I'm

717
00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 4: not putting any of it at the feet of Josh Allen.

718
00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:11,440
Speaker 4: I just won't do it.

719
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you, broa that I don't know how

720
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:19,319
Speaker 2: you come away going Josh Allen is the problem, right Like,

721
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:21,560
Speaker 2: I mean, you weren't talking about leaving all leaving it

722
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:24,279
Speaker 2: on the field. And by the way, if you're at

723
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:26,440
Speaker 2: the three yard line, it's an automatic touchdown.

724
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:29,360
Speaker 3: Yeah.

725
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:35,960
Speaker 2: People talk about the touch push the Josh I come

726
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,239
Speaker 2: up with the name, but the Josh Allen a great

727
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 2: round of goal, like its automatic.

728
00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:45,720
Speaker 4: I think you you start looking at what the Bills

729
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 4: asked him to do this year, and we talked about

730
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,080
Speaker 4: the offense that for much of the year felt like

731
00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:52,799
Speaker 4: it was a school yard where you're just rolling out

732
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,160
Speaker 4: the ball in Saint Josh save us, right, you know,

733
00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:57,920
Speaker 4: you think about some of the moments there. The different

734
00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:00,600
Speaker 4: players had different regrettable moments. I mean, it's Von Diggs

735
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,360
Speaker 4: dropping a couple of passes, but notably the bomb that

736
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:07,400
Speaker 4: we all remember that was uncharacteristic of Digs. And it

737
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:10,480
Speaker 4: doesn't mean that dig suddenly sucks, right Like, there can

738
00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:12,959
Speaker 4: be within the course of a football game, there's gonna

739
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 4: be some place and the Bills just weren't able to make.

740
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:19,000
Speaker 4: And the hardest part about Mahomes is that, you know,

741
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:22,600
Speaker 4: there's a difference between the type of quarterback and I

742
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:26,239
Speaker 4: would say that Brady was exceptional at if you make

743
00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:29,719
Speaker 4: a mistake, he will destroy you for it. Mahomes is

744
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:33,200
Speaker 4: exceptional at I'm just going to be a better athlete

745
00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:35,480
Speaker 4: than you are. And even when you don't make mistakes,

746
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 4: I'm going to find a way to make a weird play.

747
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:40,279
Speaker 4: And that's just what he's done for years. And it's

748
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:42,319
Speaker 4: I mean, Josh Allen did his fair share of in

749
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,000
Speaker 4: that game too, But Mahomes can beat you. And that's

750
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:49,560
Speaker 4: just the oversimplification. But man, Mahomes and Andy Reid is

751
00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:50,520
Speaker 4: pretty unstoppable.

752
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:51,319
Speaker 5: That's what we learned.

753
00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:53,760
Speaker 4: I don't think we learned that there's a negative around

754
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,720
Speaker 4: Buffalo as much as we learned that even this version

755
00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 4: of this Chiefs team is still capable of winning a

756
00:37:59,520 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 4: Super Bowl.

757
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:00,600
Speaker 5: Oh my god.

758
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I agree with you. I think you're spot

759
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,120
Speaker 2: on the one through. The Bills though a couple of

760
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:11,120
Speaker 2: things they need. They still need the fortifier defense and

761
00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:15,880
Speaker 2: you got to get another receiver. Yeah, you got to

762
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,400
Speaker 2: get more speed, like you know, I know they missed

763
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:22,120
Speaker 2: gave Davis and big game day, you know, gay, but

764
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,560
Speaker 2: they need another You need another weapon, like you need

765
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:28,280
Speaker 2: another you need another speed guy.

766
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 3: You know.

767
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 2: I think that's kind of what is like, really all

768
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:37,200
Speaker 2: that's missing another pass rusher, right, I mean Voon was

769
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:43,120
Speaker 2: in and out, but you definitely need you definitely need

770
00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:44,520
Speaker 2: another another receiver.

771
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:45,600
Speaker 5: Yeah.

772
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:49,160
Speaker 4: I agree, by the way, and it's certainly a defense

773
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,040
Speaker 4: that was payper thin with injuries anyway by the time

774
00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:54,919
Speaker 4: they got there. But like I said earlier, it's hard

775
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:57,160
Speaker 4: when you're the Eagles and you can't pinpoint the thing.

776
00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:00,000
Speaker 4: I think you've pinpointed exactly the things that the Bills

777
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,960
Speaker 4: will pinpoint this offseason. Let's go out and get ourselves

778
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,320
Speaker 4: a number two, and let's go out and get ourselves,

779
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 4: you know, some better depth back.

780
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,080
Speaker 2: I mean to your point, by the end of the

781
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,240
Speaker 2: I mean for that game, he had four linebackers healthy.

782
00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:20,319
Speaker 2: You would that Sean Sean McDermott said he had never

783
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:22,399
Speaker 2: played with that few linebackers.

784
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 3: There were four that was healthy in that game.

785
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:30,719
Speaker 4: And just for the Chiefs to now have better, to

786
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,360
Speaker 4: be lucky and good. But they went through a Dolphins

787
00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:35,880
Speaker 4: defense that was a shell of itself. To then go

788
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:38,719
Speaker 4: through a Bills defense, it's a shell of itself. They're

789
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:41,600
Speaker 4: not going to get that in Baltimore, right like they're

790
00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 4: gonna get full fledged, all out Ravens chaos. So that

791
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:50,160
Speaker 4: that'll be interesting because this offense certainly has not been

792
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:52,600
Speaker 4: itself but for the Chiefs.

793
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,120
Speaker 5: But I just I don't know.

794
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:56,120
Speaker 4: I tipped my hat to the Bills, and I just

795
00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 4: remind fans that, Well, it's much different when they lost

796
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 4: four straight super bowl If that had been this society,

797
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 4: everybody would have wanted to blow the whole thing up.

798
00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:05,120
Speaker 4: Now we can look back and say, hey, they went

799
00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:06,760
Speaker 4: to four street super Bowls.

800
00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:13,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I totally feel you, Mad, I totally feel you. Well,

801
00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:15,920
Speaker 2: let's kind of get into it. I want to ask

00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:19,040
Speaker 2: the stats. You ready, no, I can't wait. This is Mahomes,

814
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:25,960
Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes. If you look at just the playoffs and

815
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:30,000
Speaker 2: what he's done, he's got a passer rating in the

816
00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:34,120
Speaker 2: sixteen games, so magine like a full season. He's got

817
00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:36,680
Speaker 2: a passer rating of one hundred and six point seven.

818
00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:40,000
Speaker 2: He has thrown for four thousand, five hundred and sixty

819
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:46,400
Speaker 2: one yards. He has thrown thirty eight touchdowns, only seven interceptions.

820
00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:50,120
Speaker 2: He's rushed for another four hundred and thirty five yards

821
00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:56,120
Speaker 2: and another five touchdowns. That's sixteen playoff games, which is

822
00:41:56,160 --> 00:42:01,239
Speaker 2: an entire season. That's playing against the best defense. That's

823
00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:05,919
Speaker 2: the playoffs, so you're up against the best competition at Patrick.

824
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:08,440
Speaker 3: Mahomes gives you those numbers.

825
00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 2: Thirty eight touchdowns, seven interception, five rushing touchdowns and over

826
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:15,080
Speaker 2: forty five hundred passing yards.

827
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:16,000
Speaker 3: Are you kidding me?

828
00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:22,560
Speaker 4: It's it's why it's beautiful, you know. Like so hear

829
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:24,759
Speaker 4: me because when we started this show an hour ago,

830
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:28,879
Speaker 4: you mentioned I'm always a positive person. I find myself

831
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 4: this weekend thinking about the way we discuss the quarterback

832
00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:34,840
Speaker 4: position and why.

833
00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:35,880
Speaker 5: We need to be more positive.

834
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:38,680
Speaker 4: Like if you look this weekend, I cannot say this

835
00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:43,400
Speaker 4: loudly enough. I don't care what anyone thinks about Mahomes

836
00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:45,920
Speaker 4: versus Tom Brady. I just don't like I hear these

837
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:47,560
Speaker 4: things where it's like, well, Brady was better at this,

838
00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:48,359
Speaker 4: Brady was better there.

839
00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:49,759
Speaker 5: He's got to win more. So I don't care about

840
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:50,160
Speaker 5: any of that.

841
00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:55,560
Speaker 4: The numbers you just gave me show us how great

842
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,799
Speaker 4: what we're seeing right now is, And even as a

843
00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:02,360
Speaker 4: lifelong diehard that would never I don't have a bone

844
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:04,480
Speaker 4: in my body that roots for the Chiefs, and I

845
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:07,520
Speaker 4: never will. I still can look at it and say,

846
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:10,200
Speaker 4: my god, this is art, Like this is this is

847
00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:15,279
Speaker 4: this is a level of quarterback we can't even we

848
00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:18,200
Speaker 4: can't even wrap our brains around. This isn't about fandom.

849
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:21,120
Speaker 4: This is about We're gonna sit here and tell our

850
00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:23,640
Speaker 4: great grand crit kids, Oh my god, you should have

851
00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:26,120
Speaker 4: seen Patrick Mahomes in his prime. Like I just my

852
00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:30,600
Speaker 4: level of appreciation this weekend for what Mahomes has done,

853
00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:34,120
Speaker 4: for what Lamar has done, for where Jared Goff has

854
00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:36,120
Speaker 4: taken his career, and to the fact that the guy

855
00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:38,400
Speaker 4: that was mister Irrelevant can be right where he is,

856
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:42,320
Speaker 4: Like I have such appreciation for all four of their stories.

857
00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:47,520
Speaker 4: But this, this need to couch mahomes greatness into something

858
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,640
Speaker 4: that's still competitive against other quarterbacks in the past, I

859
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:52,920
Speaker 4: don't have any of it. Like, I think it's simple

860
00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:55,120
Speaker 4: to say that what we're seeing right now from Patrick

861
00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:57,440
Speaker 4: Mahomes is absolutely incredible.

862
00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:01,240
Speaker 5: Maybe it's historic. This is just one of those things.

863
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:03,400
Speaker 4: That you sit back, you pop your popcorn, and you

864
00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:06,160
Speaker 4: watch an artist work, and I don't know how that

865
00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:09,080
Speaker 4: will play out against against against the Ravens defense that

866
00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:12,120
Speaker 4: I think is actually really good and in this matchup

867
00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:12,960
Speaker 4: is really good.

868
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:13,879
Speaker 5: But I know this.

869
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:17,400
Speaker 4: I watch Mahomes constantly because I'm just sitting there saying, man,

870
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:19,759
Speaker 4: this guy's built different. And someday I'm gonna be able

871
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:21,240
Speaker 4: to say I watched Mahomes.

872
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:29,200
Speaker 2: Dude, I agree, and I listen forget about accomplishments. And

873
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:33,840
Speaker 2: I know that's a that's a big ask, and Brady

874
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:38,960
Speaker 2: is right now the raining goat all right, So but

875
00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:43,759
Speaker 2: I just ask you just look at the two and

876
00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:47,040
Speaker 2: look how they play the position. So there's nobody better

877
00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:54,960
Speaker 2: Brady as far as firing, like seeing processing firing right, Like,

878
00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:59,719
Speaker 2: nobody's better than that. He's got you know, he recognizes

879
00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:02,359
Speaker 2: what you one knows where to go. He gets rid

880
00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:05,720
Speaker 2: of the book quick, and he's you know, he's especially

881
00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:07,760
Speaker 2: as the years went on, I mean he just started

882
00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:08,640
Speaker 2: the gunsling.

883
00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:13,359
Speaker 3: Oh well, he slides in the pockets. We know that.

884
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:16,759
Speaker 2: You know, he's not the swiftest guy, but he's got

885
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:19,960
Speaker 2: those subtle movements within the pocket that made that made

886
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:23,960
Speaker 2: him so special. But my Homes can do all that

887
00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:29,600
Speaker 2: and he also has a bag of tricks like he does.

888
00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:37,080
Speaker 2: Everything Brady does processes quickly, you know, fires, and he's

889
00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:41,279
Speaker 2: got a bag of tricks. Like that Super Bowl last year,

890
00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:45,520
Speaker 2: he's on one leg in the second half and brings

891
00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:48,279
Speaker 2: it back in the comeback like the Chiefs had no

892
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:49,879
Speaker 2: business winning that game last year.

893
00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:53,800
Speaker 4: It's the one of the things I think is interesting

894
00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:57,239
Speaker 4: just in different styles make fights comparisons. Because you just

895
00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:59,759
Speaker 4: talked a little bit about Brady, and I always go

896
00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:02,640
Speaker 4: back to what one former Alabama quarterback told me the

897
00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:04,680
Speaker 4: same in principle is take what the defense will give

898
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:07,040
Speaker 4: you it Eventually they'll give you the game right, whether

899
00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:09,600
Speaker 4: it's from the way they align, whether it's the way

900
00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 4: they play, or whether it's mistakes they make. Brady never

901
00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:14,959
Speaker 4: let you get away with a single mistake. I still

902
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:19,360
Speaker 4: think that what makes me love watching Mahomes is the

903
00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:21,560
Speaker 4: even when he got him, you don't, you know, like

904
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:25,239
Speaker 4: it's just anybody that's ever played a single pickup basketball

905
00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:28,359
Speaker 4: game in their life where you are suddenly covering your

906
00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:31,799
Speaker 4: guarding somebody that is just a better athlete than you are,

907
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:34,160
Speaker 4: and you think you're doing everything perfect, and then all

908
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:36,279
Speaker 4: of a sudden, they have blown right by you. The

909
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:38,360
Speaker 4: number of times, as you mentioned, the bag of tricks,

910
00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:40,640
Speaker 4: like Mahomes is going to make the second level of

911
00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:43,200
Speaker 4: defense make a decision. Are they going to step up

912
00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:45,400
Speaker 4: to try and stop him? And if they do that,

913
00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:47,600
Speaker 4: can they or are they going to stay where they

914
00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:49,840
Speaker 4: are right And if they step up, he's going to

915
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:51,600
Speaker 4: drop the ball over their head and it's going to

916
00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 4: turn into something. And if they stay where they are,

917
00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:55,799
Speaker 4: he's going to run around him. Like the bag of

918
00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:59,680
Speaker 4: tricks that he has as an athlete forces guys to

919
00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:02,200
Speaker 4: try too hard to make a play and then he

920
00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:05,359
Speaker 4: just takes advantage of it every time. It's it's it's

921
00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:08,640
Speaker 4: insane in the number of times, even last week, where

922
00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:10,680
Speaker 4: I thought, oh, yeah, this play is dead in the water,

923
00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:12,719
Speaker 4: and then all of a sudden, a little flick of

924
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:16,040
Speaker 4: the wrist and it's a fifteen yard game. Even saving

925
00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:18,680
Speaker 4: them from negative plays when it looks like all is

926
00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:20,359
Speaker 4: lost and all of a sudden, it's like, nope, it's

927
00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:22,640
Speaker 4: just second, ten, second and ten in completion.

928
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:26,640
Speaker 5: Mahomes just is so good at that part of it.

929
00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:30,040
Speaker 4: He's great at the carve them up, but his ability

930
00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:32,920
Speaker 4: to make something out of nothing all the time because

931
00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:36,839
Speaker 4: he forces people to make decisions. Is just it's it's

932
00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:37,920
Speaker 4: like nothing I've ever seen.

933

Speaker 3: No, dude, I I'm with you.

934
00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:43,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's funny because you going, well, that's

935
00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:45,000
Speaker 2: Recncy bias.

936
00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:51,040
Speaker 3: Well, all I know is that is a damn good

937
00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:55,360
Speaker 3: quarterback playing man, Are you like bias? It's great?

938
00:47:55,480 --> 00:48:00,600
Speaker 2: This sometimes like we don't we don't recognize it. Dude,

939
00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:02,040
Speaker 2: look listen to this.

940
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:02,640
Speaker 3: Right, So.

941
00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:09,319
Speaker 2: Joel Embiid scores seventy points this week in a game.

942
00:48:10,080 --> 00:48:11,040
Speaker 3: I'm sure you saw it.

943
00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:19,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I just tweet out, hey, you know, uh,

944
00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:22,040
Speaker 2: you know modern we're watching the modern day Will, like

945
00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:25,239
Speaker 2: I didn't see Will Chamberlain, right, but all the old

946
00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:27,399
Speaker 2: heads they all talk about, you know, the whole thing,

947
00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:29,239
Speaker 2: how dominant, how great.

948
00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:33,760
Speaker 3: And I'm you know, I'm sure every bit right away.

949
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:37,040
Speaker 2: He's not Wilt Will blah blah, and they the amount

950
00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:39,840
Speaker 2: of back lives, like what do you We're watching the

951
00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:43,200
Speaker 2: modern day Will like he is. He's the he's by

952
00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:45,480
Speaker 2: far the best big man. I mean, the joker's there.

953
00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:50,600
Speaker 2: But you know it beads different how he plays. I

954
00:48:50,600 --> 00:48:55,480
Speaker 2: mean he scored seventy points effortlessly, like that was something

955
00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:58,480
Speaker 2: that you go, oh my god, like if it's not

956
00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:04,279
Speaker 2: a blowout like he probably he plays more minutes. I

957
00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:08,400
Speaker 2: just I'm implored by it, right, like seventy points and

958
00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:12,640
Speaker 2: it was almost effortless, and yet you can't give it up.

959
00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:16,400
Speaker 5: We live in a hater society.

960
00:49:16,680 --> 00:49:20,879
Speaker 4: I mean, that's what That's what Twitter Acts created, right,

961
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:24,680
Speaker 4: Like I used to say, it's important to remember, you know,

962
00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:27,600
Speaker 4: everybody wants a voice, but not everybody uses that voice

963
00:49:27,600 --> 00:49:30,880
Speaker 4: with any level of responsibility. And you know, Twitter x

964
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:33,200
Speaker 4: is an example of that. And now we live in

965
00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:37,080
Speaker 4: a spot where the easiest thing to do is essentially

966
00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:39,359
Speaker 4: act like we're in sixth grade again and just be like, nah,

967
00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:42,040
Speaker 4: he sucks. And the answer you know what I mean

968
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:45,280
Speaker 4: like by saying that, And to me, I think the

969
00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:48,600
Speaker 4: the funny thing is the opposite approach is actually a

970
00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:51,640
Speaker 4: better one. Like like I said, as a lifelong diehard

971
00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,799
Speaker 4: Raiders fan, I can look at Mahomes and say, you

972
00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:57,960
Speaker 4: know what, he's so good. It explains part of why

973
00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:00,439
Speaker 4: this era of Raiders football is what it is because

974
00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:02,239
Speaker 4: you got to take on my Homes and Andy root

975
00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:05,399
Speaker 4: Man like that's just like for the rest of the time,

976
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:07,759
Speaker 4: there's a whole group of AFC East fans that will say,

977
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:11,560
Speaker 4: hey man, we got our butts kicked by Brady and Belichick.

978
00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:14,799
Speaker 4: Like it's just it almost becomes a to me. If

979
00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:17,960
Speaker 4: you build up greatness, then it only makes you a

980
00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:21,160
Speaker 4: appreciate what you're seeing, b understand your result if you're

981
00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:24,920
Speaker 4: not a fan of that greatness. But unfortunately, the quicker

982
00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:27,359
Speaker 4: thing for somebody to do is say, oh, I've seen better,

983
00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:29,799
Speaker 4: like that's where we are now. It's it's almost like

984
00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:32,080
Speaker 4: walking by a street magician and no matter what their

985
00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:34,040
Speaker 4: trick is, they could be levitating ten feet off the

986
00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:34,480
Speaker 4: ground and.

987
00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:36,239
Speaker 5: They're like, I'm not impressed. I've seen better.

988
00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:39,080
Speaker 4: That's where we are with everything we see now as

989
00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:41,440
Speaker 4: a society. I don't know how to fix that. But

990
00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:44,839
Speaker 4: this weekend is sort of in the NFL terms, is

991
00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:48,839
Speaker 4: the glowing example of four stories that you know.

992
00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:50,440
Speaker 5: If you told and you you as a.

993
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:53,240
Speaker 4: Writer, know this perspective and how you tell a story

994
00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:54,759
Speaker 4: is everything. Like if you and I get in a

995
00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:57,239
Speaker 4: foot race and I win, I could turn around and

996
00:50:57,280 --> 00:50:58,600
Speaker 4: tell all my buddies that I've.

997
00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:00,880
Speaker 5: Finished first and you finished last.

998
00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:03,160
Speaker 4: You can tell your buddies you finished in second and

999
00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:03,919
Speaker 4: I finished second.

1000
00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:04,800
Speaker 5: To last We're.

1001
00:51:04,680 --> 00:51:07,600
Speaker 4: Both saying the same thing, We're just saying it in

1002
00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:10,440
Speaker 4: a different way. And that's what's happening right now with

1003
00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:12,759
Speaker 4: so much of the way we cover guys like we

1004
00:51:12,800 --> 00:51:16,160
Speaker 4: would rather the fact that, you know, last night, even

1005
00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:18,520
Speaker 4: if you look across the NBA, you mentioned going off

1006
00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:21,640
Speaker 4: on points like Don goes off for seventy three last night,

1007
00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:24,880
Speaker 4: that's that doesn't get That doesn't get covered near as

1008
00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:27,040
Speaker 4: much as Don Chic's kicking a fan out because the

1009
00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:28,640
Speaker 4: fan said he seemed like he was fat.

1010
00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:30,400
Speaker 5: Or whatever, Like he spent more time about the treadmill.

1011
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:34,520
Speaker 4: Like we we crave negativity in our viewpoint. We crave

1012
00:51:34,600 --> 00:51:38,040
Speaker 4: negativity in our stories. Like if we instead looked at

1013
00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:41,840
Speaker 4: this whole weekend from a class half full perspective, imagine

1014
00:51:41,840 --> 00:51:43,719
Speaker 4: how much more we would appreciate the game we're going

1015
00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:44,200
Speaker 4: to see.

1016
00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:50,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, dude, you're you're spot on man. Shaye? What is that? Shaye?

1017

1026
00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:09,839
Speaker 9: have been a better yo. You're right, You're right.

1027
00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:13,640
Speaker 2: You know he was doing he was doing uh e

00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:16,239
Speaker 2: or other our former producer.

1029
00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:18,000
Speaker 8: Yeah, he used to do that.

1030
00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:23,279
Speaker 3: You would do that. His yeo would be yo. That

1031
00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:24,040
Speaker 3: was his yo.

1032
00:52:24,280 --> 00:52:24,759
Speaker 8: I missed that.

1033
00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:25,080

Speaker 3: Yo, like you the yo. No.

1038
00:52:40,280 --> 00:52:42,320

00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:44,480
Speaker 4: word yo, I get like middle aged white guy head

00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:47,799
Speaker 5: ticks up when I say it.

Speaker 4: I don't know why yo happens in like automatically, my

1044
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:53,520
Speaker 4: head's ticking up like I'm looking at something on my ceiling.

1045
00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:59,440
Speaker 3: I don't know. That was one of my favorite words

1046
00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:01,919
Speaker 3: Yo yo.

1047
00:53:02,280 --> 00:53:05,560

00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:11,279
Speaker 4: the boys depending on how you say yo, Like maybe

1050
00:53:11,320 --> 00:53:12,919
Speaker 4: that's why I don't get a lot of street cred,

1051
00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:14,920
Speaker 4: Like yo doesn't have enough like.

1052

Speaker 5: I need to Yo.

1053

Speaker 2: Here's the one true wisdom you can't aspire.

1054
00:53:24,480 --> 00:53:25,400
Speaker 3: For street credit.

1055
00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:28,839
Speaker 2: It's just oh that's fair, you know what I mean,

1056

00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:37,960

00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:38,319
Speaker 3: Okay?

1060
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:39,600
Speaker 8: Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah.

1061
00:53:39,640 --> 00:53:43,680
Speaker 2: Fad on or or Gazey. I want to make sure

1062
00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:46,880
Speaker 2: I call him by his proper name.

1063
00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:47,080
Speaker 5: Gets street cred.

1064
00:53:47,200 --> 00:53:51,880
Speaker 3: That's that's Gayzy nailed it, nailed it?

1065
00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:53,000
Speaker 8: Yeah, I agree?

1066
00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:57,640
Speaker 3: Well what is that? Wait? Like we look at balls,

1067
00:53:57,640 --> 00:53:58,840
Speaker 3: like how do you look at my homes?

1068
00:53:59,680 --> 00:54:02,400
Speaker 9: I mean, and when I see Mahoe Okay, to be honest,

1069
00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:06,200
Speaker 9: it was funny because I mean I see him as

1070
00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:09,600
Speaker 9: almost the second coming of Tom Brady. But like I mean,

1071
00:54:09,640 --> 00:54:12,879
Speaker 9: I mean pretty sure everyone sees that, Like I don't.

1072
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:15,880
Speaker 9: I haven't seen someone that disagrees with me. But like

1073
00:54:16,239 --> 00:54:18,960
Speaker 9: when you have new people coming in and like this

1074
00:54:19,040 --> 00:54:23,000
Speaker 9: year was kind of just something that wasn't necessarily his year,

1075
00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:25,560
Speaker 9: but he's coming back and like he's able to turn

1076
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:29,600
Speaker 9: it around in the playoffs and like that quickly. I

1077
00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:32,960
Speaker 9: don't know, I don't think he's wrong at all. I

1078
00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:35,160
Speaker 9: just I don't think he's wrong at all. I think

1079
00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:38,759
Speaker 9: I think Mahomes is yeah. I mean I said he's

1080
00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:42,399
Speaker 9: a second coming, And just imagine, like.

1081
00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:45,520
Speaker 5: How different if everybody in the sports bart was like,

1082
00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:46,840
Speaker 5: oh my god, I can't believe.

1083
00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:50,279
Speaker 4: We're seeing Like Mahomes versus Lamar Jackson is a sort

1084
00:54:50,280 --> 00:54:54,239
Speaker 4: of matchup that actually deserves the hype it's going to get.

1085
00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:57,319
Speaker 4: You've got presumptively a two time MVP in his age

1086
00:54:57,360 --> 00:54:59,879
Speaker 4: and Lamar and the way he has played this year,

1087
00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:02,080
Speaker 4: and then you got Mahomes who's doing this with the

1088
00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:04,320
Speaker 4: team that they should not be here, like the Chiefs

1089
00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:07,200
Speaker 4: is a team on paper should not be here, and

1090
00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:12,040
Speaker 4: Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes together have there's this cemented

1091
00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:15,440
Speaker 4: bond between that, like there's a cultural phenomenon, like the

1092
00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:17,880
Speaker 4: commercials with the Nuggets in it and everything, like this

1093
00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:20,799
Speaker 4: should be a cultural phenomenon moment. There should not be

1094
00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:23,239
Speaker 4: a moment of doubt. This should be a moment of

1095
00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:25,560
Speaker 4: celebrated greatness where you pop your feet up and you're like,

1096
00:55:25,600 --> 00:55:28,719
Speaker 4: oh my god, I cannot believe we are watching these

1097
00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:33,160
Speaker 4: two young quarterbacks. Like a week after we get Alan v. Mahomes,

1098
00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:37,560
Speaker 4: we get Mahomes v. Jackson. Just injected in my veins,

1099
00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:39,319
Speaker 4: like that should be our approach on all of it.

1100
00:55:40,719 --> 00:55:43,719
Speaker 2: And by the way, the second game is gonna be

1101
00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:48,760
Speaker 2: ridiculous too with those offenses. Like two there are two great,

1102
00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:52,240
Speaker 2: great offenses that are going to go head to head

1103
00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:55,919
Speaker 2: in the second game in the NFC too, Like that's

1104
00:55:55,920 --> 00:55:56,640
Speaker 2: gonna be a ques.

1105
00:55:57,680 --> 00:56:00,440
Speaker 4: By the way, I think those are two the biggest

1106
00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:03,680
Speaker 4: stories you could ever ask for, like a redemption story

1107
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:05,879
Speaker 4: of a quarterback that a franchise and a fan base

1108
00:56:05,960 --> 00:56:08,799
Speaker 4: gave up on, versus a quarterback that was picked with

1109
00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:09,919
Speaker 4: the last selection.

1110
00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:10,640
Speaker 5: In the NFL draft.

1111
00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:13,359
Speaker 4: When you when you simply say it that way, it's

1112
00:56:13,360 --> 00:56:16,600
Speaker 4: a reason for every single team this year to have hope,

1113
00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:19,160
Speaker 4: like maybe we can find our golf. Maybe there's somebody

1114
00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:21,400
Speaker 4: on the trash pile for another team that's gonna be

1115
00:56:21,440 --> 00:56:24,080
Speaker 4: epic for us. Maybe we can maybe we can have

1116
00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:26,719
Speaker 4: that moment right And then the other side of it is,

1117
00:56:26,760 --> 00:56:29,520
Speaker 4: instead of sitting here debating the greatness of party, let's

1118
00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:32,000
Speaker 4: sit here and debate, Oh my god, I can my

1119
00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:35,080
Speaker 4: team find the next rock Party in the seventh round

1120
00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:37,440
Speaker 4: of the NFL Draft. Probably not, but it gives you

1121
00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:40,160
Speaker 4: at least like that makes this more special looking around

1122
00:56:40,160 --> 00:56:42,439
Speaker 4: at being like if we turned around and just said

1123
00:56:42,440 --> 00:56:45,120
Speaker 4: the same statement. Man, I can't believe he was mister

1124
00:56:45,160 --> 00:56:49,040
Speaker 4: irrelevant with joy. Think how much differently it's received, and

1125
00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:50,839
Speaker 4: it's like, yeah, he's mister irrelevant.

1126
00:56:50,880 --> 00:56:52,440
Speaker 5: Like it's just it's crazy to me.

1127
00:56:52,880 --> 00:56:56,919
Speaker 3: You got a good way looking things there, gazy yo,

1128
00:56:57,480 --> 00:56:58,239
Speaker 3: right he do?

1129
00:56:58,520 --> 00:57:00,839
Speaker 9: Yeah, I only jump in right. I know we moved

1130
00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:03,759
Speaker 9: on from Mahomes and Lamar Jackson, but I wanted to

1131
00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:06,480
Speaker 9: jump back into the game. I wanted to. I did

1132
00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:10,399
Speaker 9: want to add one last thing to that. No one's

1133
00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:14,400
Speaker 9: really talking about how great the that QB rivalry is

1134
00:57:14,440 --> 00:57:17,040
Speaker 9: going to be, really, at least around my friends, Like,

1135
00:57:17,080 --> 00:57:18,800
Speaker 9: I feel like the only thing that people are talking

1136
00:57:18,800 --> 00:57:21,160
Speaker 9: about is how much they don't want to see Pat

1137
00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:23,560
Speaker 9: Mahomes in it again, or how much they don't want

1138
00:57:23,560 --> 00:57:26,120
Speaker 9: to see Taylor Swift at least in it. And it's

1139
00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:28,919
Speaker 9: like it's something where you bring this up to where

1140
00:57:28,960 --> 00:57:30,720
Speaker 9: how cool it's going to be and how great of

1141
00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:32,640
Speaker 9: a matchup this is going to be, and I feel

1142
00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:35,880
Speaker 9: like it's getting just totally thrown away just because of

1143
00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:37,520
Speaker 9: how much people don't want to see them in the

1144
00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:38,040
Speaker 9: super Bowl.

1145
00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:40,440
Speaker 2: You know what it is, and you touched on something

1146
00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:42,960
Speaker 2: and we should actually touch on that. We should we

1147
00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:45,640
Speaker 2: make this a larger part of the conversation. It's a

1148
00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:49,560
Speaker 2: great point that you touched on. And we are a

1149
00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:57,520
Speaker 2: society that has a short shelf life of fatigue. We

1150
00:57:57,560 --> 00:58:03,040
Speaker 2: get tired of people like eet so fast. Like I

1151
00:58:03,080 --> 00:58:08,280
Speaker 2: heard people ripping Jason Kelcey because he was shirtless in Buffalo.

1152
00:58:09,040 --> 00:58:11,680
Speaker 8: Yeah on the screen time. Yeah, I saw that.

1153
00:58:11,920 --> 00:58:16,120
Speaker 2: And I was like, dude, he's fun loving, Like, first

1154
00:58:16,160 --> 00:58:17,400
Speaker 2: of all, you should be on SNL.

1155
00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:19,280
Speaker 3: He's you know, he.

1156
00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:21,480
Speaker 8: Be a great host.

1157
00:58:21,840 --> 00:58:22,280
Speaker 3: He would.

1158
00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:26,919
Speaker 2: He's like that, he's got that thing going right, He's

1159
00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:30,880
Speaker 2: Tommy Boy, who is an NFL center, Like, come on,

1160
00:58:31,520 --> 00:58:33,320
Speaker 2: like that was that was awesome?

1161
00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:36,320
Speaker 3: But yet we hate it? Why do we hate it?

1162
00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:38,800
Speaker 2: Goes while he's Kelsey, I'm tired of Kelsey and I'm

1163
00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:42,760
Speaker 2: tired of Taylor Swift and all. We have this fatigue,

1164
00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:45,080
Speaker 2: and I want you to talk about this. Gazy you

1165
00:58:45,080 --> 00:58:49,080
Speaker 2: have a great sense of like, yeah, you know, you

1166
00:58:49,080 --> 00:58:53,880
Speaker 2: should be a sociologist of human being, So I want

1167
00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:58,400
Speaker 2: you to talk about that. All right, they are fatigue syndrome.

1168
00:58:59,040 --> 00:59:04,000
Speaker 2: Where the Fellas right here, Fox Sports Radio, Welcome Backfellas.

1169
00:59:07,560 --> 00:59:12,080
Speaker 2: Jason fits Anthony Gargana as we hang out. It's a

1170
00:59:12,080 --> 00:59:12,840
Speaker 2: great song too.

1171
00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:16,720
Speaker 4: I mean, based on the music selection alone, today feels

1172
00:59:16,760 --> 00:59:20,120
Speaker 4: like Mighty Mark goes back to his place. There's like

1173
00:59:20,520 --> 00:59:24,840
Speaker 4: a silk robe. The music's just lightly playing throughout the house.

1174
00:59:24,880 --> 00:59:28,560
Speaker 4: Maybe like a mid day glass of wine money Marxist

1175
00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:30,120
Speaker 4: like that's how I've got it in my head, like

1176
00:59:30,120 --> 00:59:32,280
Speaker 4: a little little.

1177
00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:33,760
Speaker 3: Pipe, little pipe.

1178
00:59:33,840 --> 00:59:36,360
Speaker 8: Maybe you know, Mighty looks good right now. That's all

1179
00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:39,240
Speaker 8: I'm gonna say. The Foxworth studios are going up.

1180
00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:43,680
Speaker 6: That would be my sister's music. If it's the that song,

1181
00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:45,360
Speaker 6: that's when my sister's music time.

1182
00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:47,760
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, she loved her Earth for the Fire.

1183
00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:50,760
Speaker 8: Oh yes, that's good.

1184
00:59:51,080 --> 00:59:52,320
Speaker 5: Okay, a couple of things.

1185
00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:56,959
Speaker 4: Number One, there is no time on music anymore because

1186
00:59:56,960 --> 00:59:59,960
Speaker 4: Spotify exist, so everybody can find everything, right like stream

1187
01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:02,560
Speaker 4: services allow everybody to be into everything. So you know,

1188
01:00:02,560 --> 01:00:05,240
Speaker 4: I'm just saying, open your horizon. It's number two to

1189
01:00:05,320 --> 01:00:08,400
Speaker 4: all airs, all genres, all times, number two. I don't

1190
01:00:08,400 --> 01:00:10,439
Speaker 4: know if I ever told you discussing, but years ago,

1191
01:00:10,520 --> 01:00:11,480
Speaker 4: I when the.

1192
01:00:11,520 --> 01:00:12,920
Speaker 5: NFL Draft was in Cleveland.

1193
01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:15,720
Speaker 4: Covering the draft that year, I talked to a bunch

1194
01:00:15,760 --> 01:00:18,040
Speaker 4: of rock and roll Hall of famers, right, And so.

1195
01:00:17,960 --> 01:00:20,480
Speaker 5: The whole tie in was what's it take to be

1196
01:00:20,520 --> 01:00:21,280
Speaker 5: a Hall of Famer?

1197
01:00:21,360 --> 01:00:23,200
Speaker 3: Right? A great story?

1198
01:00:23,240 --> 01:00:25,240
Speaker 5: So yeah, it was. It was fun.

1199
01:00:25,280 --> 01:00:27,680
Speaker 4: And I talked to Earth Wind and Fire and I

1200
01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:30,240
Speaker 4: asked the guys we were on a zoom because of

1201
01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:32,760
Speaker 4: the COVID times at the time. I asked him, you know,

1202
01:00:32,840 --> 01:00:36,040
Speaker 4: when you're sitting there and you're in the studio and

1203
01:00:36,080 --> 01:00:38,960
Speaker 4: you're recording a song, you know, like September, Like, what's that?

1204
01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:40,120
Speaker 5: What's that moment feel like?

1205
01:00:40,240 --> 01:00:40,400
Speaker 3: Right?

1206
01:00:40,480 --> 01:00:41,720
Speaker 5: Like, how does it you're.

1207
01:00:41,600 --> 01:00:44,000
Speaker 4: In this is a timeless song the rest of time

1208
01:00:44,040 --> 01:00:46,320
Speaker 4: will remember, right, what does it feel like when you're

1209
01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:49,680
Speaker 4: recording something like that? And they, without hesitation, they were like, oh,

1210
01:00:49,680 --> 01:00:51,560
Speaker 4: we all hated this song. We all thought it was terrible,

1211
01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:52,800
Speaker 4: Like none of us thought it was going to be

1212
01:00:52,800 --> 01:00:54,760
Speaker 4: a hit. The guy in the band that wrote it,

1213
01:00:54,800 --> 01:00:56,480
Speaker 4: we thought he was crazy. We thought it was dumb.

1214
01:00:56,560 --> 01:00:58,320
Speaker 4: We didn't like it when we recorded it, and now

1215
01:00:58,320 --> 01:00:59,800
Speaker 4: we all wish we'd written it because he made all

1216
01:00:59,800 --> 01:01:02,440
Speaker 4: the So it's you know, it's just a reminder nobody

1217
01:01:02,440 --> 01:01:04,080
Speaker 4: knows a hit even when you're recording it. There you

1218
01:01:04,120 --> 01:01:05,080
Speaker 4: go music story of that.

1219
01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:06,680
Speaker 3: Why it's a great story.

1220
01:01:07,720 --> 01:01:09,920
Speaker 5: That's also it was stunning to me.

1221
01:01:13,160 --> 01:01:17,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, But I asked every Hall of Famer that I

1222
01:01:17,560 --> 01:01:20,800
Speaker 4: talked to the same question, like because one of our

1223
01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:22,640
Speaker 4: we knew we were going to do a thematic on

1224
01:01:22,760 --> 01:01:25,640
Speaker 4: what's it like having your your song playing an aridia

1225
01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:28,240
Speaker 4: or stadium stadium, right like when you hear it a

1226
01:01:28,280 --> 01:01:31,600
Speaker 4: sporting event. So I asked, I mean, over and over,

1227
01:01:31,640 --> 01:01:33,439
Speaker 4: and it was earth Wind and Fire and like jon

1228
01:01:33,600 --> 01:01:36,240
Speaker 4: Jet and def Leppard, bon Jovi, Like we asked all

1229
01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:41,160
Speaker 4: these different people, and every single one of them, without knowing,

1230
01:01:41,360 --> 01:01:44,000
Speaker 4: gave me the same basic answer when they were all like,

1231
01:01:44,040 --> 01:01:46,440
Speaker 4: it's not my song, it's the world song. And you

1232
01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:48,600
Speaker 4: make music so that the world takes it, and then

1233
01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:50,920
Speaker 4: when the world takes it makes it part of something special,

1234
01:01:51,400 --> 01:01:53,160
Speaker 4: then you know that you've done what you're supposed to do,

1235
01:01:53,160 --> 01:01:54,800
Speaker 4: which is give it to the world. And I just

1236
01:01:54,840 --> 01:01:56,960
Speaker 4: sat there and I was like, man, when the fourth

1237
01:01:57,160 --> 01:01:59,520
Speaker 4: fifth Hall of Famer says that in a row, that

1238
01:01:59,640 --> 01:02:02,560
Speaker 4: shows the humility of that era of musicians, And I'm

1239
01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:05,480
Speaker 4: not sure frankly exists at the same level in many

1240
01:02:05,520 --> 01:02:07,479
Speaker 4: of them today, like sounding like the old man.

1241
01:02:07,400 --> 01:02:09,560
Speaker 5: On the block. But I a lot of my even

1242
01:02:09,600 --> 01:02:10,080
Speaker 5: a lot of my.

1243
01:02:10,040 --> 01:02:12,240
Speaker 4: Friends that have had success in the business do not

1244
01:02:12,320 --> 01:02:14,200
Speaker 4: take that same selfless mindset.

1245
01:02:14,320 --> 01:02:16,640
Speaker 5: So you know, there you go, music story of the day.

1246
01:02:16,760 --> 01:02:20,800
Speaker 2: What a great story. So who was who said that

1247
01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:24,360
Speaker 2: the duty was to put it out in the universe?

1248
01:02:26,840 --> 01:02:29,440
Speaker 5: Like literally, it must be a conversation.

1249
01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:31,960
Speaker 4: They've all had some like jon Jett was the first

1250
01:02:31,960 --> 01:02:34,400
Speaker 4: one that she was like, oh, I don't have any songs.

1251
01:02:34,640 --> 01:02:37,840
Speaker 4: She's like, whatever I've done, I've done to give to

1252
01:02:37,880 --> 01:02:40,080
Speaker 4: the world and if the world wants to.

1253
01:02:40,080 --> 01:02:41,520
Speaker 5: Use it, then that's great.

1254
01:02:41,560 --> 01:02:43,640
Speaker 4: And then when I talked to def Leppard, which was

1255
01:02:43,640 --> 01:02:47,640
Speaker 4: like the next day, the exact same answer. What it

1256
01:02:47,720 --> 01:02:50,800
Speaker 4: was like, you know, the immediate answer was the same.

1257
01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:53,720
Speaker 4: They even started like, I, we don't have songs. The

1258
01:02:53,760 --> 01:02:56,080
Speaker 4: world has our music and that's why you make music.

1259
01:02:56,200 --> 01:02:58,320
Speaker 4: And you know, I ended up having a really long

1260
01:02:58,360 --> 01:03:03,000
Speaker 4: conversation after our interview with Richie Samboro, who was, you know,

1261
01:03:03,040 --> 01:03:05,720
Speaker 4: my childhood idol, Like my first concept was bon Jovi,

1262
01:03:06,120 --> 01:03:08,840
Speaker 4: and Richie and I had become friends over the years

1263
01:03:09,040 --> 01:03:12,480
Speaker 4: after that interview. But it was amazing when I was

1264
01:03:12,520 --> 01:03:14,919
Speaker 4: asking him about like that level of success and he said,

1265
01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:16,760
Speaker 4: you know, the most incredible thing is when the world

1266
01:03:16,760 --> 01:03:18,800
Speaker 4: takes your music and makes it their own. And I

1267
01:03:18,840 --> 01:03:20,040
Speaker 4: just sat there looked at all of it, and I

1268
01:03:20,080 --> 01:03:21,880
Speaker 4: was like, man, I've been lucky in my life to

1269
01:03:21,880 --> 01:03:24,600
Speaker 4: be a part of some some hit songs. I've never

1270
01:03:24,840 --> 01:03:26,840
Speaker 4: even sat down and thought of it that way. It

1271
01:03:26,880 --> 01:03:29,400
Speaker 4: just shows you how different the mindset was for that

1272
01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:30,120
Speaker 4: that generation.

1273
01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:34,640
Speaker 3: That's awesome. Man, I need more. I need a you

1274

01:03:46,040 --> 01:03:48,280
Speaker 3: I don't know anything about that world.

01:03:48,320 --> 01:03:50,680
Speaker 2: I that's the world that I'm I'm really interested in

1281
01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:53,520

1337
01:07:14,920 --> 01:07:19,320
Speaker 2: let me ask you, buddy, because we were talking about,

1338
01:07:20,360 --> 01:07:22,680
Speaker 2: you know, before we were talking about the music, which

1339
01:07:22,760 --> 01:07:25,840
Speaker 2: was so incredible, I mean, just amazing.

1340
01:07:26,320 --> 01:07:28,720
Speaker 3: Do we have a fatigue issue?

1341
01:07:28,760 --> 01:07:34,040
Speaker 2: Like I bring up Mahomes and we gush over them,

1342
01:07:34,080 --> 01:07:38,120
Speaker 2: but somewhere someone's driving in their car listening at home

1343
01:07:38,240 --> 01:07:41,959
Speaker 2: and they're rolling their eyes like, oh god, Mahomes again,

1344
01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:46,040
Speaker 2: And why do we have an issue with fatigue?

1345
01:07:48,320 --> 01:07:51,560
Speaker 4: I it's an interesting question because I think it actually

1346
01:07:51,640 --> 01:07:55,840
Speaker 4: is part of life now, Like think about social media.

1347
01:07:56,040 --> 01:07:59,280
Speaker 4: If you go on the greatest trip of your life

1348
01:07:59,400 --> 01:08:00,760
Speaker 4: and you're going, you know.

1349
01:08:00,720 --> 01:08:03,240
Speaker 5: If somebody is like if I've decided this.

1350
01:08:03,240 --> 01:08:05,800
Speaker 4: Summer, I'm going to Italy, and you know, I go

1351
01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:07,640
Speaker 4: to Gargano and I get all the help I need

1352
01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:09,080
Speaker 4: to make sure that I get to Italy and have

1353
01:08:09,120 --> 01:08:11,360
Speaker 4: the trip of my life. Right the first day that

1354
01:08:11,400 --> 01:08:14,680
Speaker 4: I post pictures, everybody will love them, like, they'll retweet them,

1355
01:08:14,760 --> 01:08:17,240
Speaker 4: everybody will comment on them. You'll get, oh my god,

1356
01:08:17,280 --> 01:08:19,400
Speaker 4: this is great. If I'm there for two weeks. By

1357
01:08:19,400 --> 01:08:22,479
Speaker 4: the end of two weeks, nobody's commenting on any of it. Right, Like,

1358
01:08:22,760 --> 01:08:24,960
Speaker 4: if you have a friend that wins the lottery once,

1359
01:08:25,360 --> 01:08:27,320
Speaker 4: you're so happy for your friend. If they win the

1360
01:08:27,360 --> 01:08:30,320
Speaker 4: lottery twice, now they're the lucky sob and why don't

1361
01:08:30,360 --> 01:08:31,000
Speaker 4: you ever get.

1362
01:08:30,880 --> 01:08:31,320
Speaker 5: Any of that?

1363
01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:36,200
Speaker 4: Like it's a very interesting spot, Like we only want

1364
01:08:36,520 --> 01:08:40,439
Speaker 4: enough success to be happy for somebody, and I'm including

1365
01:08:40,760 --> 01:08:44,559
Speaker 4: personal lives, I'm including fandom. We want somebody to be

1366
01:08:44,600 --> 01:08:46,680
Speaker 4: able to love their team for a second. And then

1367
01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:49,240
Speaker 4: it's like great, now, but you've had enough. That's enough

1368
01:08:49,280 --> 01:08:51,360
Speaker 4: cake for you. Now you must go to the back

1369
01:08:51,400 --> 01:08:54,320
Speaker 4: of the line. And it almost feels like we want

1370
01:08:54,560 --> 01:08:56,680
Speaker 4: because in our own lives we want to have these

1371
01:08:56,720 --> 01:08:59,080
Speaker 4: great things. It's like we want this cycle of it

1372
01:08:59,160 --> 01:09:03,559
Speaker 4: because you're right, Like, how many people went through fatigue

1373
01:09:03,600 --> 01:09:05,800
Speaker 4: with the greatness of the Bulls at one point, went

1374
01:09:05,840 --> 01:09:07,800
Speaker 4: through the fatigue with the greatness of the Lakers, go

1375
01:09:07,880 --> 01:09:10,240
Speaker 4: through the fatigue with the greatness of Steph and the

1376
01:09:10,280 --> 01:09:12,080
Speaker 4: greatness of the Warriors.

1377
01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:13,120
Speaker 5: Like it's it's my god.

1378
01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:15,000
Speaker 4: The Nuggets would kill to me at a spot where

1379
01:09:15,000 --> 01:09:17,519
Speaker 4: they're important enough to get to fatigue, right, Like, but

1380
01:09:18,439 --> 01:09:20,240
Speaker 4: we do this all the time in the NBA, Like

1381
01:09:20,320 --> 01:09:22,920
Speaker 4: we want somebody to win a couple of championships after

1382
01:09:22,960 --> 01:09:26,519
Speaker 4: a couple who we are done, and it's just this

1383
01:09:26,560 --> 01:09:30,400
Speaker 4: is what happens. And I think the hard part about

1384
01:09:30,400 --> 01:09:35,160
Speaker 4: that is it takes so much energy to root against

1385
01:09:35,400 --> 01:09:38,200
Speaker 4: success that like, I just would rather root for my

1386
01:09:38,200 --> 01:09:41,040
Speaker 4: own success than for someone else's failure. That's just how

1387
01:09:41,120 --> 01:09:42,280
Speaker 4: I'm I'm natured as.

1388
01:09:42,200 --> 01:09:42,920
Speaker 5: A person, I think.

1389
01:09:43,160 --> 01:09:45,920
Speaker 4: And I said this to somebody, you know, because certainly

1390
01:09:46,080 --> 01:09:48,439
Speaker 4: sports fans do this every time. We're going to pick

1391
01:09:48,479 --> 01:09:51,679
Speaker 4: the games today, and inevitably, when we pick the games,

1392
01:09:51,760 --> 01:09:54,360
Speaker 4: if if we are wrong about a game, that fan

1393
01:09:54,400 --> 01:09:56,519
Speaker 4: base is going to come to us on Twitter x

1394
01:09:56,560 --> 01:09:58,880
Speaker 4: and then say you're an idiot, You're a moron, this

1395
01:09:58,960 --> 01:10:00,639
Speaker 4: is why you shouldn't have a job. But nobody should

1396
01:10:00,640 --> 01:10:02,800
Speaker 4: ever listen to you, and they're gonnatrol you. And I've

1397
01:10:02,840 --> 01:10:05,760
Speaker 4: always looked at that and thought, man, I don't understand it.

1398
01:10:05,880 --> 01:10:08,479
Speaker 4: In the biggest moments, if my beloved Raiders win a

1399
01:10:08,520 --> 01:10:10,840
Speaker 4: Super Bowl, I am not going to use that moment

1400
01:10:11,200 --> 01:10:14,840
Speaker 4: to talk to Chiefs fans, Chargers fans, Broncos fans, the

1401
01:10:14,880 --> 01:10:16,840
Speaker 4: media that didn't pick them any of those six. I'm

1402
01:10:16,840 --> 01:10:19,760
Speaker 4: going to find other Raiders fans and I'm gonna celebrate it,

1403
01:10:19,920 --> 01:10:23,960
Speaker 4: Like I just think that's become celebration of success has

1404
01:10:24,040 --> 01:10:27,479
Speaker 4: become more rare in society left and right, which means

1405
01:10:27,520 --> 01:10:29,960
Speaker 4: it becomes more rare in society when we start looking

1406
01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:33,240
Speaker 4: at our favorite sports teams and in our favorite favorite

1407
01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:34,320
Speaker 4: franchises and players.

1408
01:10:35,800 --> 01:10:41,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, dude, I completely I am completely on board with that.

1409
01:10:41,960 --> 01:10:45,640
Speaker 2: I mean, spot on. I feel the same way, like

1410
01:10:47,000 --> 01:10:52,960
Speaker 2: you want to celebrate your success like Roberie in somebody's

1411
01:10:53,080 --> 01:10:57,599
Speaker 2: nose that I mean, I don't know why even think

1412
01:10:57,680 --> 01:11:02,040
Speaker 2: about that. Why Colles walso back to, like too many

1413
01:11:02,080 --> 01:11:05,679
Speaker 2: of us had bad karma, Like you're so worried about

1414
01:11:05,680 --> 01:11:10,360
Speaker 2: sticking it up somebody's ear, Like you know, like, how

1415
01:11:10,400 --> 01:11:13,320
Speaker 2: about you don't do that and maybe you put some backtually,

1416
01:11:13,400 --> 01:11:16,200
Speaker 2: some good will to the universe and it'll maybe it'll

1417
01:11:16,200 --> 01:11:16,800
Speaker 2: come back to you.

1418
01:11:18,720 --> 01:11:23,760
Speaker 4: It's so funny because it's you say karma, which makes

1419
01:11:23,800 --> 01:11:24,880
Speaker 4: me think of the Taylor Swift thing.

1420
01:11:24,920 --> 01:11:27,560
Speaker 5: Even like the amount of yelling everybody's.

1421
01:11:27,120 --> 01:11:28,920
Speaker 4: Doing about stuff like that, and it's like it's such

1422
01:11:28,960 --> 01:11:31,679
Speaker 4: wasted energy, you know, Like and we're in this deep

1423
01:11:31,720 --> 01:11:33,800
Speaker 4: meta thought process now on a Saturday morning and I

1424
01:11:33,840 --> 01:11:36,120
Speaker 4: get people are driving around and they're like, ah, I'll

1425
01:11:36,160 --> 01:11:39,360
Speaker 4: just talk about sports. But like we're in such a

1426
01:11:39,400 --> 01:11:42,840
Speaker 4: weird energy as a world where it's like we just

1427
01:11:42,960 --> 01:11:46,800
Speaker 4: want to hate on everything and we just like, to me,

1428
01:11:46,880 --> 01:11:49,320
Speaker 4: it doesn't it doesn't make sense. Like you're you're a

1429
01:11:49,360 --> 01:11:52,599
Speaker 4: family man and you love all of the sports you're

1430
01:11:52,600 --> 01:11:55,080
Speaker 4: involved with your kids, like that's part of your identity,

1431
01:11:55,160 --> 01:11:57,679
Speaker 4: right Like think about when when.

1432
01:11:57,720 --> 01:12:03,360
Speaker 3: It came last night, not go well, no I'm sorry.

1433
01:12:03,240 --> 01:12:06,000
Speaker 4: But think about your like like your kids right now,

1434
01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:09,480
Speaker 4: you're you were seeing the next generation And I genuinely

1435
01:12:09,520 --> 01:12:13,240
Speaker 4: don't believe right now the next generation is as eager

1436
01:12:13,320 --> 01:12:17,320
Speaker 4: to poop all over everything that everybody does, and if

1437
01:12:17,320 --> 01:12:19,599
Speaker 4: they did, you'd say something like you would look at

1438
01:12:19,600 --> 01:12:21,120
Speaker 4: your kid and be like, hey, don't be that. Like

1439
01:12:21,439 --> 01:12:23,320
Speaker 4: if your kid went over to the other kid on

1440
01:12:23,320 --> 01:12:25,400
Speaker 4: the other side, it was like you suck. Everything about

1441
01:12:25,400 --> 01:12:28,120
Speaker 4: you sucks and your life sucks. Right, Like you would

1442
01:12:28,160 --> 01:12:29,639
Speaker 4: look at your kid and be like, which problem?

1443
01:12:29,760 --> 01:12:30,000
Speaker 5: Right?

1444
01:12:30,360 --> 01:12:34,240
Speaker 4: And the funny thing is that there's this weird tipping

1445
01:12:34,320 --> 01:12:36,840
Speaker 4: scale in society where all of a sudden we go

1446
01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:40,000
Speaker 4: from like, why would you say that's negative?

1447
01:12:41,360 --> 01:12:43,479
Speaker 3: Like I like, I'm like there's times when.

1448
01:12:45,640 --> 01:12:50,800
Speaker 2: Masmo, my youngest who's ten, he says to me, I

1449
01:12:50,960 --> 01:12:57,000
Speaker 2: Jalen hurt stinks and I and I go, yo, no,

1450
01:12:57,479 --> 01:13:00,720
Speaker 2: we're not doing that. No, no, no, no, you're not.

1451
01:13:01,160 --> 01:13:05,679
Speaker 2: You're you don't judge anybody. He's playing in the NFL

1452
01:13:06,080 --> 01:13:08,839
Speaker 2: blah blah blah blah. You know, like, you're an athlete,

1453
01:13:08,960 --> 01:13:14,519
Speaker 2: you should admire what those accomplishments and someday maybe that

1454
01:13:14,680 --> 01:13:15,640
Speaker 2: could be you.

1455
01:13:15,640 --> 01:13:17,440
Speaker 3: You don't, you don't have that attitude.

1456
01:13:18,680 --> 01:13:21,240
Speaker 4: It's but the funny thing is we're in the spot

1457
01:13:21,280 --> 01:13:24,160
Speaker 4: where like even those goalposts think about the way people

1458
01:13:24,160 --> 01:13:27,040
Speaker 4: react to what we say, and it's a fair criticism. Look,

1459
01:13:27,080 --> 01:13:28,800
Speaker 4: if somebody wants to come at me and say I

1460
01:13:28,880 --> 01:13:31,439
Speaker 4: never played in the NFL, why do they want my opinions,

1461
01:13:31,439 --> 01:13:32,799
Speaker 4: that's fine, Like I can't change.

1462
01:13:32,600 --> 01:13:33,200
Speaker 3: Your mind on that.

1463
01:13:33,439 --> 01:13:37,360
Speaker 5: I have my retorts to that, but I can't change

1464
01:13:37,400 --> 01:13:38,160
Speaker 5: your opinion on it.

1465
01:13:38,200 --> 01:13:40,760
Speaker 4: But then all of a sudden, you've got guys that

1466
01:13:40,840 --> 01:13:43,120
Speaker 4: did play in the league that will then sit on

1467
01:13:43,200 --> 01:13:45,160
Speaker 4: TV and give their opinion, and everybody's like, oh, but

1468
01:13:45,240 --> 01:13:45,800
Speaker 4: this guy sucks.

1469
01:13:45,800 --> 01:13:46,960
Speaker 5: He was never good in the league.

1470
01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:50,920
Speaker 4: So like we we unless everybody's looking for and this

1471
01:13:51,000 --> 01:13:53,080
Speaker 4: is I had this deep conversation with some of my

1472
01:13:53,080 --> 01:13:56,240
Speaker 4: buddies that work in media the other day about like

1473
01:13:56,320 --> 01:13:59,840
Speaker 4: confirmation bias, Like I genuinely believe that a lot of

1474
01:14:00,040 --> 01:14:03,040
Speaker 4: fans out there now don't want critical writing or thinking

1475
01:14:03,080 --> 01:14:05,240
Speaker 4: about their favorite team. They want to go to a

1476
01:14:05,320 --> 01:14:10,080
Speaker 4: site where their opinions of their favorite team can be supported.

1477
01:14:10,200 --> 01:14:12,479
Speaker 4: Like everybody will say, yeah, you're right, that's what people want.

1478
01:14:12,520 --> 01:14:15,200
Speaker 4: Like during the off season, if I come in and

1479
01:14:15,240 --> 01:14:17,200
Speaker 4: say that the Raiders are going to be bad next year,

1480
01:14:17,240 --> 01:14:19,880
Speaker 4: I will get crushed by Raiders fans. It happened, It happened.

1481
01:14:19,920 --> 01:14:22,280
Speaker 4: The last two summers where people came in and said, ah,

1482
01:14:22,280 --> 01:14:24,320
Speaker 4: you don't know what you're talking about. And then if

1483
01:14:24,400 --> 01:14:27,040
Speaker 4: during the process of the team not being particularly good,

1484
01:14:27,360 --> 01:14:29,120
Speaker 4: I'm like, well, you know there's this and this to

1485
01:14:29,120 --> 01:14:31,840
Speaker 4: build on. Now you're a homerk. Like everybody hates what

1486
01:14:31,920 --> 01:14:34,559
Speaker 4: you have to say unless it agrees with them. Everybody

1487
01:14:34,600 --> 01:14:38,320
Speaker 4: just wants they want. People don't want to be they

1488
01:14:38,360 --> 01:14:39,400
Speaker 4: don't want their thought process.

1489
01:14:39,760 --> 01:14:43,559
Speaker 2: By the way, it's just nonsense too, Like it's it's

1490
01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:49,120
Speaker 2: a waste of energy. Yeah, like all the conversation, I

1491
01:14:49,560 --> 01:14:53,840
Speaker 2: don't I don't, brother, I don't know. We'll continue to

1492
01:14:53,880 --> 01:14:59,160
Speaker 2: try to hyber it out help the world. Anthony gark

1493
01:14:59,200 --> 01:15:04,719
Speaker 2: Gado where the fellas Fox Sports Radio all Right, fellas

1494
01:15:04,880 --> 01:15:10,080
Speaker 2: from the tire rec dot Com studios, Jason fitz Gayzy

1495
01:15:10,720 --> 01:15:15,880
Speaker 2: because Shay Mighty Mark is the entire crew.

1496
01:15:19,320 --> 01:15:24,519
Speaker 3: Let's get into Ravens a little bit, because I they're good.

1497
01:15:24,600 --> 01:15:27,280
Speaker 3: I mean, we talked about spags earlier.

1498
01:15:29,200 --> 01:15:34,559
Speaker 2: McDonald And with that defense is done, we'll go into

1499
01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:38,679
Speaker 2: the greatness of Lamar coming up. But the Ravens defense

1500
01:15:38,760 --> 01:15:42,439
Speaker 2: in the matchup zone that they play is a fast

1501
01:15:42,680 --> 01:15:46,960
Speaker 2: It's going to be like the defensive matchup. It's really interesting,

1502
01:15:47,800 --> 01:15:51,800
Speaker 2: FITZI like, I could see both defenses are going to

1503
01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:56,200
Speaker 2: be really because it's a conscience to style. Like the

1504
01:15:56,200 --> 01:15:58,880
Speaker 2: the Ravens play this matchup zone where they flow to

1505
01:15:58,960 --> 01:16:02,519
Speaker 2: the football Bill Blitz, you know, either ro Kwan or

1506
01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:06,080
Speaker 2: Patrick Queen and go with their you know, five or

1507
01:16:06,120 --> 01:16:10,480
Speaker 2: six man pressures and then float in the football. Kyle Hamilton,

1508
01:16:11,560 --> 01:16:13,519
Speaker 2: it's going to be a you know, I think the

1509
01:16:13,600 --> 01:16:17,679
Speaker 2: game is going to certainly for the Chiefs, the tackle

1510
01:16:17,760 --> 01:16:20,760
Speaker 2: spot is going to be dictate what they can do

1511
01:16:20,880 --> 01:16:23,000
Speaker 2: offensively and can they hold their blocks.

1512
01:16:24,640 --> 01:16:27,080
Speaker 4: What you said about the defense and the way it flows,

1513
01:16:27,120 --> 01:16:29,760
Speaker 4: I think is also an important part of what makes

1514
01:16:29,760 --> 01:16:34,840
Speaker 4: the Ravens defense really good because it requires tremendous understanding

1515
01:16:35,000 --> 01:16:37,040
Speaker 4: of where to be, when to be, and not.

1516
01:16:37,080 --> 01:16:38,040
Speaker 5: To over pursue.

1517
01:16:38,120 --> 01:16:40,280
Speaker 4: And one thing that was interesting again, I'll go back

1518
01:16:40,280 --> 01:16:42,719
Speaker 4: to a conversation I have with Dominique Foxworth last weekend.

1519
01:16:43,200 --> 01:16:46,639
Speaker 4: He pointed out the triple option play that was run

1520
01:16:46,760 --> 01:16:49,439
Speaker 4: by the Texans at one point where they were trying

1521
01:16:49,439 --> 01:16:51,880
Speaker 4: to basically fool the defense and they were running all

1522
01:16:51,880 --> 01:16:55,400
Speaker 4: these different plays and the fact that the Ravens defense

1523
01:16:55,479 --> 01:16:57,720
Speaker 4: saw it and didn't overreact to it. If you go

1524
01:16:57,760 --> 01:17:00,360
Speaker 4: back and watch the Browns games, there were couple of

1525
01:17:00,400 --> 01:17:03,240
Speaker 4: times that the Browns essentially over pursued themselves out of

1526
01:17:03,320 --> 01:17:06,280
Speaker 4: the play, and that's part of what the Texans were

1527
01:17:06,320 --> 01:17:08,679
Speaker 4: banking that the Ravens would also do. And this Ravens

1528
01:17:08,720 --> 01:17:12,880
Speaker 4: defense doesn't do that. They flow to the ball instead

1529
01:17:12,920 --> 01:17:15,679
Speaker 4: of swarm to the ball, which is a small difference,

1530
01:17:15,720 --> 01:17:18,839
Speaker 4: but it's a big difference. So they're very disciplined defense

1531
01:17:19,120 --> 01:17:22,600
Speaker 4: that simply doesn't make a lot of mistakes. And you know,

1532
01:17:22,720 --> 01:17:25,880
Speaker 4: part of that's coaching, part of that's the players, part

1533
01:17:25,880 --> 01:17:28,600
Speaker 4: of its comfort in this system, but there has to

1534
01:17:28,640 --> 01:17:31,200
Speaker 4: be you almost have to have a little voice in

1535
01:17:31,200 --> 01:17:33,759
Speaker 4: your head from what Foxworth was telling me that screaming

1536
01:17:33,800 --> 01:17:37,240
Speaker 4: this is my responsibility, just do that in those moments,

1537
01:17:37,680 --> 01:17:40,640
Speaker 4: and that's what they do beautifully. So what's interesting is,

1538
01:17:40,680 --> 01:17:43,759
Speaker 4: I said earlier, Mahomes forces defensive players to make a decision.

1539
01:17:44,360 --> 01:17:46,640
Speaker 4: The thing of it is he's taking on an incredibly

1540
01:17:46,680 --> 01:17:50,400
Speaker 4: disciplined defense. It's capable of making those decisions. So I

1541
01:17:50,439 --> 01:17:52,960
Speaker 4: think that's what really becomes the most interesting part of

1542
01:17:52,960 --> 01:17:55,599
Speaker 4: this to me is that you know what will because

1543
01:17:55,600 --> 01:17:59,960
Speaker 4: Mahomes is essentially being asked to be Superman. I will

1544
01:18:00,040 --> 01:18:03,120
Speaker 4: acquiesced the Pacheco has gotten better, Rashi Rice has really

1545
01:18:03,160 --> 01:18:06,599
Speaker 4: grown up in front of our eyes. But I think

1546
01:18:06,600 --> 01:18:09,680
Speaker 4: you're asking Mahomes to be Superman against the defense that

1547
01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:12,960
Speaker 4: might have kryptonite. Like I feel like this actually really

1548
01:18:13,000 --> 01:18:14,000
Speaker 4: lines up for the Ravens.

1549
01:18:14,080 --> 01:18:17,479
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, dude, I kind of feel the same way. Man.

1550
01:18:17,840 --> 01:18:24,680
Speaker 2: I do you know I love Andy and Spags and Mahomes,

1551
01:18:24,760 --> 01:18:27,120
Speaker 2: and I do I love that I love them and

1552
01:18:27,200 --> 01:18:31,639
Speaker 2: I you know, personally love them and admire them from

1553
01:18:31,680 --> 01:18:33,439
Speaker 2: a as a fan of football.

1554
01:18:34,600 --> 01:18:37,040
Speaker 3: Well, I think this is a tough matchup, man, This

1555
01:18:37,240 --> 01:18:39,920
Speaker 3: is a really really.

1556
01:18:39,640 --> 01:18:43,360
Speaker 2: Tough matchup for him, and the game will be dictated

1557
01:18:43,439 --> 01:18:45,080
Speaker 2: up front. I mean, I know they're going to try

1558
01:18:45,120 --> 01:18:48,880
Speaker 2: to lean on Pacheco, and because you can run on

1559
01:18:48,920 --> 01:18:53,800
Speaker 2: this Ravens defense, the keys going to be you know,

1560
01:18:54,040 --> 01:18:57,599
Speaker 2: can they get you a couple of chunk plays? Now

1561
01:18:57,640 --> 01:19:01,920
Speaker 2: that that matchup zone is a little uh susceptible that

1562
01:19:02,040 --> 01:19:05,640
Speaker 2: if you can buy time, which obviously Macombs can, so

1563
01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:10,800
Speaker 2: you gotta be pinpoint accurate. That was Stafford earlier in

1564
01:19:10,840 --> 01:19:14,320
Speaker 2: the year. Uh, or you gotta buy time and and

1565
01:19:14,400 --> 01:19:17,840
Speaker 2: try to get them to uh to kind of you know,

1566
01:19:17,960 --> 01:19:18,920
Speaker 2: floil a little bit.

1567
01:19:20,160 --> 01:19:22,840
Speaker 4: Also, I think your your your point here on you

1568
01:19:22,880 --> 01:19:25,760
Speaker 4: can run them becomes such an important like I I

1569
01:19:25,960 --> 01:19:28,400
Speaker 4: just did what everybody does. We make it about mahomes.

1570
01:19:28,880 --> 01:19:31,800
Speaker 4: But man Pacheco's gotta play well, he's there has to

1571
01:19:31,840 --> 01:19:33,479
Speaker 4: be running at both sides. You're gonna have to run

1572
01:19:33,520 --> 01:19:35,960
Speaker 4: the ball well. And I love the idea of seeing

1573
01:19:36,000 --> 01:19:39,000
Speaker 4: what Monkin's offense looks like against bags defense, Like that's

1574
01:19:39,040 --> 01:19:41,040
Speaker 4: just that to me is the chess match and all

1575
01:19:41,080 --> 01:19:42,000
Speaker 4: of this too that I love.

1576
01:19:43,160 --> 01:19:46,680
Speaker 2: Oh, that's gonna be incredible. It really is like that

1577
01:19:46,840 --> 01:19:49,160
Speaker 2: of that whole piece. And look they got Mark Andrews,

1578
01:19:49,520 --> 01:19:52,280
Speaker 2: So now you have another weapon, you know, kind of

1579
01:19:52,280 --> 01:19:55,840
Speaker 2: back in the fault. I mean likely who's been a

1580
01:19:55,920 --> 01:19:59,639
Speaker 2: stud right now you add Mark Andrews. So we'll dive

1581
01:19:59,720 --> 01:20:02,880

1601
01:21:16,200 --> 01:21:21,360
Speaker 2: the great stories beneath the surface of these championship games.

1602
01:21:21,600 --> 01:21:27,680
Speaker 2: Chiefs and Ravens and uh Lions Niners. Look at the

1603
01:21:27,680 --> 01:21:29,720
Speaker 2: Lions and Niners come up a little bit. But let's

1604
01:21:30,360 --> 01:21:33,679
Speaker 2: kind of put a put a bow on this Ravens

1605
01:21:34,400 --> 01:21:41,120
Speaker 2: Chiefs matchup. Lamar isn't an interesting FITZI that Lamar who

1606
01:21:41,439 --> 01:21:45,080
Speaker 2: everybody could have had last year, right like he's he's there.

1607
01:21:45,240 --> 01:21:49,920
Speaker 2: Everybody's there, you know, and you look at what he's

1608
01:21:50,080 --> 01:21:54,160
Speaker 2: done and the growth, and he to me like, he's

1609
01:21:54,160 --> 01:22:00,479
Speaker 2: a he's so interesting because he's improved his mechanics and

1610
01:22:00,479 --> 01:22:07,840
Speaker 2: he's fundamentals, but he's kept his ability to freelance, right, Like,

1611
01:22:07,880 --> 01:22:10,600
Speaker 2: So that's kind of a fine line, right because you.

1612
01:22:10,560 --> 01:22:11,400
Speaker 5: Don't want Lamar.

1613
01:22:12,720 --> 01:22:16,599
Speaker 2: You don't want to strip Lamar of that free willing nature,

1614
01:22:16,680 --> 01:22:20,320
Speaker 2: like you want to allow him to create, and he's

1615
01:22:20,400 --> 01:22:24,880
Speaker 2: but would still create within the parameters of quarterback good

1616
01:22:24,920 --> 01:22:25,759
Speaker 2: quarterback play.

1617
01:22:26,320 --> 01:22:27,000
Speaker 3: And he's done that.

1618
01:22:28,760 --> 01:22:32,679
Speaker 4: Doesn't that at some level to speak to Todd munkin

1619
01:22:33,000 --> 01:22:36,880
Speaker 4: doing a great job as an offensive coordinator. And it's

1620
01:22:36,920 --> 01:22:39,600
Speaker 4: funny because something I said at the very beginning of

1621
01:22:39,640 --> 01:22:40,280
Speaker 4: the season is.

1622
01:22:40,160 --> 01:22:42,240
Speaker 5: We talked about Monkin's offense. Go back and watch it

1623
01:22:42,240 --> 01:22:43,080
Speaker 5: at Georgia.

1624
01:22:43,479 --> 01:22:46,040
Speaker 4: He used a ton of tight ends and it took

1625
01:22:46,040 --> 01:22:48,439
Speaker 4: a minute for all of that to come together. But

1626
01:22:48,520 --> 01:22:50,599
Speaker 4: it feels like he's taken some of his best passing

1627
01:22:50,640 --> 01:22:53,680
Speaker 4: concepts from Georgia, brought him to the NFL, and then

1628
01:22:53,800 --> 01:22:58,200
Speaker 4: also allowed Lamar to be Lamar. And what's frustrating for me,

1629
01:22:58,280 --> 01:23:01,479
Speaker 4: I said earlier, I want great coaches to be like chopped.

1630
01:23:01,520 --> 01:23:02,200
Speaker 5: But here's the thing.

1631
01:23:02,600 --> 01:23:06,000
Speaker 4: If you put one hundred musicians in a room and

1632
01:23:06,040 --> 01:23:07,600
Speaker 4: you ask him, hey, is that guitar player in a

1633
01:23:07,680 --> 01:23:09,960
Speaker 4: good most of the one hundred are at least going

1634
01:23:10,000 --> 01:23:12,439
Speaker 4: to be able to identify if the person is talented.

1635
01:23:12,520 --> 01:23:14,880
Speaker 4: No matter the style of music they're playing. You can

1636
01:23:15,000 --> 01:23:17,760
Speaker 4: identify if they're talented. If you take Gordon Ramsey and

1637
01:23:17,800 --> 01:23:20,360
Speaker 4: put them in any kitchen in the world and say, hey,

1638
01:23:20,400 --> 01:23:21,320
Speaker 4: is this chef talented?

1639
01:23:21,400 --> 01:23:23,160
Speaker 5: I think he's going to be able to see it.

1640
01:23:23,160 --> 01:23:24,680
Speaker 5: It's maddening to me.

1641
01:23:25,120 --> 01:23:28,439
Speaker 4: That there are only thirty two NFL franchises, thirty one

1642
01:23:28,479 --> 01:23:31,280
Speaker 4: of them, in the theory, would have had a shot

1643
01:23:31,320 --> 01:23:33,120
Speaker 4: at Lamar no matter what it would have taken to

1644
01:23:33,120 --> 01:23:36,400
Speaker 4: get him. And of those thirty one, several actually had

1645
01:23:36,439 --> 01:23:40,599
Speaker 4: a dire need at quarterback and couldn't identify that this

1646
01:23:40,840 --> 01:23:43,800
Speaker 4: was what they'd be getting. Like that, Tell me I'm wrong,

1647
01:23:43,880 --> 01:23:46,560
Speaker 4: Tell me you're wrong, Tell me we're wrong as a media,

1648
01:23:46,720 --> 01:23:49,720
Speaker 4: that's okay. Tell me that NFL teams looked around and said,

1649
01:23:49,760 --> 01:23:52,160
Speaker 4: now we're all good, we're set, and now Lamar is

1650
01:23:52,200 --> 01:23:54,479
Speaker 4: doing what he's doing. And how often do we hear

1651
01:23:54,520 --> 01:23:58,720
Speaker 4: people around Baltimore say he just needs competent coaching. Well,

1652
01:23:58,760 --> 01:24:00,400
Speaker 4: the rest of the league should have seeing that, for

1653
01:24:00,520 --> 01:24:03,640
Speaker 4: damn sure. It's frustrating to me that the rest of

1654
01:24:03,640 --> 01:24:06,360
Speaker 4: the league looked around and passed on somebody, not just

1655
01:24:06,400 --> 01:24:08,400
Speaker 4: because like, take the money aside. I don't care about

1656
01:24:08,400 --> 01:24:10,800
Speaker 4: the money. Take all of those issues aside, and then

1657
01:24:10,880 --> 01:24:12,559
Speaker 4: just look at it and me like, this guy's playing

1658
01:24:12,600 --> 01:24:15,040
Speaker 4: this way and you decided you were better off with

1659
01:24:15,080 --> 01:24:17,599
Speaker 4: Desmond Ritter. Let's just call it what it is at

1660
01:24:17,640 --> 01:24:19,000
Speaker 4: this point, Like that's maddening.

1661
01:24:20,160 --> 01:24:22,759
Speaker 2: Dude, you're spot on, I mean, and the ridder situay,

1662
01:24:23,000 --> 01:24:29,240
Speaker 2: I mean, think about the fortunes if the Falcons have Lamar. Now,

1663
01:24:29,760 --> 01:24:31,639
Speaker 2: I don't know that you know, they're gonna be able

1664
01:24:31,640 --> 01:24:35,519
Speaker 2: to devise an offense that gets the best out of

1665
01:24:35,600 --> 01:24:39,880
Speaker 2: them the way Monkin did. But just imagine Lamar, even

1666
01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:43,920
Speaker 2: you know Lamar from last year, who just stays healthy.

1667
01:24:45,000 --> 01:24:48,679
Speaker 2: You're gonna tell me what Drake London and Bjohn Robinson

1668
01:24:48,760 --> 01:24:52,960
Speaker 2: and Kyle Pitts that the Falcons aren't you know, well,

1669
01:24:52,960 --> 01:24:56,640
Speaker 2: they're easily they easily win the South, but you know

1670
01:24:56,960 --> 01:24:58,360
Speaker 2: they're they're probably contender.

1671
01:24:58,560 --> 01:25:02,400
Speaker 3: They have good young defense, and you Lamar there, come on, I.

1672
01:25:02,320 --> 01:25:03,760
Speaker 5: Mean, you at least got to try too.

1673
01:25:04,160 --> 01:25:06,479
Speaker 4: And for anyone that says, well, they just thought Baltimore

1674
01:25:06,560 --> 01:25:09,160
Speaker 4: was gonna match it, okay, at least try and put

1675
01:25:09,200 --> 01:25:13,280
Speaker 4: Baltimore in such a hard financial situation that you know

1676
01:25:13,320 --> 01:25:15,200
Speaker 4: they have to swallow hard when they just you know

1677
01:25:15,320 --> 01:25:17,000
Speaker 4: that moment when you're about to write a big check

1678
01:25:17,000 --> 01:25:19,120
Speaker 4: and you just sort of gulp, like that's at least

1679
01:25:19,240 --> 01:25:22,240
Speaker 4: make Baltimore do that. And the fact that so many

1680
01:25:22,280 --> 01:25:25,600
Speaker 4: teams just decided to stay on the sidelines, and now

1681
01:25:25,640 --> 01:25:26,719
Speaker 4: we're seeing this from Lamar.

1682
01:25:26,840 --> 01:25:28,240
Speaker 5: And again I'll say.

1683
01:25:28,120 --> 01:25:30,559
Speaker 4: This, like I said earlier, I don't really care about

1684
01:25:30,600 --> 01:25:31,679
Speaker 4: the contract situation.

1685
01:25:31,760 --> 01:25:33,040
Speaker 5: I don't care about any of that.

1686
01:25:33,080 --> 01:25:35,599
Speaker 4: And people want to find some reason to doubt Lamar

1687
01:25:35,680 --> 01:25:37,920
Speaker 4: because they doubted him when he was drafted, or because

1688
01:25:38,200 --> 01:25:40,639
Speaker 4: the comments that were made about him then, or because

1689
01:25:40,640 --> 01:25:43,000
Speaker 4: of the money he wants or whatever, because of his

1690
01:25:43,080 --> 01:25:44,599
Speaker 4: lack of playoff success, all.

1691
01:25:44,439 --> 01:25:45,639
Speaker 5: These things that I just don't.

1692
01:25:46,040 --> 01:25:49,439
Speaker 4: I just don't care, cause, like what I do, I'm

1693
01:25:49,439 --> 01:25:51,920
Speaker 4: looking at a quarterback that this year, right now, to

1694
01:25:51,960 --> 01:25:56,240
Speaker 4: this point in this season, has absolutely played lights out.

1695
01:25:56,320 --> 01:25:58,559
Speaker 4: That's all I'm caring about. Coming into this weekend. I'm

1696
01:25:58,560 --> 01:26:01,360
Speaker 4: not caring about what happened in a playoff game against

1697
01:26:01,360 --> 01:26:03,479
Speaker 4: the Chargers a few years ago. I care about this

1698
01:26:03,520 --> 01:26:07,519
Speaker 4: season right now, and with this offense, this season, this way,

1699
01:26:07,680 --> 01:26:09,800
Speaker 4: the Ravens have clearly, throughout the course of the year

1700
01:26:09,880 --> 01:26:11,880
Speaker 4: been the best team in the NFL, and they are

1701
01:26:11,920 --> 01:26:14,519
Speaker 4: playing like it right now. Like Lamar's gonna get his

1702
01:26:14,560 --> 01:26:16,680
Speaker 4: flowers because nobody's going to have any choice but to

1703
01:26:16,680 --> 01:26:17,280
Speaker 4: give it to him.

1704
01:26:17,800 --> 01:26:21,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, dude, I hear you. Man, I'm with you. I

1705
01:26:22,040 --> 01:26:25,880
Speaker 3: think you're spot odd and it's good.

1706
01:26:26,120 --> 01:26:27,880
Speaker 2: I love what you said about monktting and the tight

1707
01:26:27,960 --> 01:26:31,439
Speaker 2: end because I mean, think about it. You know, he

1708
01:26:31,520 --> 01:26:36,120
Speaker 2: was always comfortable with Andrews. They then drafted Lakely and

1709
01:26:36,200 --> 01:26:39,759
Speaker 2: Charlie Colar. By the way, how about the Iowa guy.

1710
01:26:41,120 --> 01:26:43,120
Speaker 2: They don't have offense, but they have tight ends.

1711
01:26:43,400 --> 01:26:47,640
Speaker 5: It's believable all day every day. Man, like something in

1712
01:26:47,640 --> 01:26:48,960
Speaker 5: the corn. There something in the corn.

1713
01:26:49,200 --> 01:26:53,000
Speaker 2: My god, that Laporte is the best of all. Mus Grave,

1714
01:26:54,960 --> 01:26:58,439
Speaker 2: you name it. What's his name from Buffalo? I mean

1715
01:26:59,000 --> 01:27:03,639
Speaker 2: that draft Laporta looks like a star man.

1716
01:27:04,000 --> 01:27:06,720
Speaker 3: He's just amazing, and look.

1717
01:27:06,800 --> 01:27:10,280
Speaker 2: Likely comes in when Andrews gets hurt and he has

1718
01:27:10,360 --> 01:27:14,679
Speaker 2: been spectacular. And Charlie Colark too was filled in nicely,

1719
01:27:14,720 --> 01:27:17,559
Speaker 2: but as a second tight end. But Man, Likely has

1720
01:27:17,560 --> 01:27:18,560
Speaker 2: been terrific.

1721
01:27:20,120 --> 01:27:23,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, and to the point that there was a period

1722
01:27:23,160 --> 01:27:25,720
Speaker 4: when Mark Andrews went out that I sat there and said, oh, Man,

1723
01:27:25,800 --> 01:27:28,760
Speaker 4: I don't know, like the receivers were asking a lot

1724
01:27:28,800 --> 01:27:31,960
Speaker 4: of these receivers to suddenly develop into it. And then

1725
01:27:31,960 --> 01:27:34,000
Speaker 4: all of a sudden Likely steps in and just his

1726
01:27:34,720 --> 01:27:38,040
Speaker 4: lights out. Likely I don't know the lol that's the

1727
01:27:38,080 --> 01:27:41,920
Speaker 4: new nickname, but Likely came in and played incredible, And

1728
01:27:42,360 --> 01:27:44,680
Speaker 4: during all of this time it was buying Zay a

1729
01:27:44,680 --> 01:27:47,240
Speaker 4: little bit more time to sort of develop into who

1730
01:27:47,280 --> 01:27:50,559
Speaker 4: he is too. He's been great since the outset buddy

1731
01:27:50,640 --> 01:27:53,240
Speaker 4: mindset at training camp that Lamar was calling him the

1732
01:27:53,320 --> 01:27:56,960
Speaker 4: human joystick on the third day of practice, and just

1733
01:27:57,160 --> 01:27:59,240
Speaker 4: the ascension there into this offense.

1734
01:27:59,240 --> 01:28:01,400
Speaker 5: It's just they've done everything.

1735
01:28:01,120 --> 01:28:03,160
Speaker 4: The right way this year, not just by bringing in

1736
01:28:03,520 --> 01:28:06,200
Speaker 4: a coach that can modernize their offense, but by bringing

1737
01:28:06,200 --> 01:28:07,960
Speaker 4: in weapons he can throw too as well. It's just

1738
01:28:08,400 --> 01:28:11,280
Speaker 4: that's why we're seeing this version of lamarl It's it's

1739
01:28:11,600 --> 01:28:13,160
Speaker 4: which came first to the chicken of the egg they

1740
01:28:13,160 --> 01:28:16,639
Speaker 4: finally gave him competent NFL offense and talent around him

1741
01:28:16,640 --> 01:28:18,479
Speaker 4: and coaching around him, and Bam, all of a sudden,

1742
01:28:18,560 --> 01:28:19,320
Speaker 4: you get this version.

1743
01:28:20,120 --> 01:28:24,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's I mean that offense. Man, my god, It's

1744
01:28:24,880 --> 01:28:28,639
Speaker 2: just it looks so much different. And like you got

1745
01:28:28,640 --> 01:28:33,160
Speaker 2: the sense with Houston right that at some point they

1746
01:28:33,600 --> 01:28:36,160
Speaker 2: would just grind them down and it would open up.

1747
01:28:36,200 --> 01:28:37,839
Speaker 3: And that's exactly kind of what happened.

1748
01:28:39,600 --> 01:28:42,200
Speaker 4: And now you look at it and say, how do

1749
01:28:42,320 --> 01:28:44,280
Speaker 4: you how do you stop them?

1750
01:28:44,400 --> 01:28:45,599
Speaker 5: How do you slow them down?

1751
01:28:46,160 --> 01:28:48,799
Speaker 4: Because you got to be able to do sort of everything. Well,

1752
01:28:49,040 --> 01:28:51,479
Speaker 4: but that's why, as we said earlier, it's the chess

1753
01:28:51,479 --> 01:28:54,760
Speaker 4: match that I love. Like you are absolutely right to

1754
01:28:54,800 --> 01:28:57,040
Speaker 4: turn around and say, hey, look at the way Spags

1755
01:28:57,040 --> 01:28:59,240
Speaker 4: has played this year, right, or coach this year? I

1756
01:28:59,240 --> 01:29:02,519
Speaker 4: should say, so, now you have Monk and v. Spags

1757
01:29:02,920 --> 01:29:05,000
Speaker 4: and this is it feels like one of those big

1758
01:29:05,000 --> 01:29:07,679
Speaker 4: moments for an offensive play caller, Like it just feels

1759
01:29:07,720 --> 01:29:10,360
Speaker 4: like this is one of those prove it Monking goes

1760
01:29:10,400 --> 01:29:12,200
Speaker 4: in the Ravens, go and have a big game. Monk,

1761
01:29:12,240 --> 01:29:13,920
Speaker 4: It's going to be a head coaching candidate in the year.

1762
01:29:14,160 --> 01:29:16,600
Speaker 4: It's just it comes from this sort of platform, this

1763
01:29:16,640 --> 01:29:20,759
Speaker 4: sort of opportunity. But the Ravens can do so many

1764
01:29:20,800 --> 01:29:23,559
Speaker 4: things well in layers on an offense, right, So like

1765
01:29:23,880 --> 01:29:26,280
Speaker 4: they can beat you five, seven, twelve, fifteen all the

1766
01:29:26,320 --> 01:29:28,720
Speaker 4: way down, right, So that makes it so hard to

1767
01:29:28,760 --> 01:29:31,360
Speaker 4: defend Spags. You mentioned he's gonna come in with four

1768
01:29:31,400 --> 01:29:33,719
Speaker 4: game plans. He's gonna need all of them and more

1769
01:29:33,760 --> 01:29:37,320
Speaker 4: because the Ravens simply have never shut down this year

1770
01:29:37,560 --> 01:29:40,320
Speaker 4: against I shouldn't say never, The Ravens mostly have not

1771
01:29:40,400 --> 01:29:42,960
Speaker 4: shut down this year when they've played great teams. I

1772
01:29:43,000 --> 01:29:44,679
Speaker 4: don't expect that they'll shut down in this game.

1773
01:29:45,520 --> 01:29:50,360
Speaker 3: Now, listen, I'm with you, man, I feel the same way. Now.

1774
01:29:50,400 --> 01:29:52,800
Speaker 2: The other side of bulls is interesting too, which is

1775
01:29:53,600 --> 01:29:57,559
Speaker 2: the Andy Reid v McDonald in that defense that we

1776
01:29:57,600 --> 01:30:00,760
Speaker 2: talked about. So the matchups are really good. And then

1777
01:30:00,880 --> 01:30:03,960
Speaker 2: like when we talk about Andy, I was thinking about this.

1778
01:30:04,360 --> 01:30:09,080
Speaker 2: Last week he beat Sean McDermott, who was from his tree,

1779
01:30:09,360 --> 01:30:12,839
Speaker 2: and this week he's got Horball who's also from his tree.

1780
01:30:13,439 --> 01:30:16,920
Speaker 2: I mean that's pretty impressive. Like, you know, he's going

1781
01:30:16,960 --> 01:30:18,840
Speaker 2: through all his pupils.

1782
01:30:20,160 --> 01:30:24,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, and he's doing it in a way where I

1783
01:30:24,080 --> 01:30:27,040
Speaker 4: cannot believe this. I'll say this, people will roll their eyes.

1784
01:30:27,080 --> 01:30:30,760
Speaker 4: I don't think we give Andy Reid enough credit. I

1785
01:30:30,880 --> 01:30:34,320
Speaker 4: just feel like we're seeing one of the greatest and

1786
01:30:34,360 --> 01:30:37,599
Speaker 4: we see that constantly, like this concept, and it's frustrated

1787
01:30:37,640 --> 01:30:39,920
Speaker 4: me for a long time, this concept that, oh, will

1788
01:30:39,920 --> 01:30:40,920
Speaker 4: you put anybody in that.

1789
01:30:40,880 --> 01:30:42,519
Speaker 5: Office with Mahomes and it'll be great.

1790
01:30:42,560 --> 01:30:46,519
Speaker 4: No, it's not just Mahomes, Like, you gotta scheme people open.

1791
01:30:46,760 --> 01:30:48,680
Speaker 4: You gotta find a way to get people open. And

1792
01:30:49,080 --> 01:30:51,640
Speaker 4: for all of the difficulties they've had this year at

1793
01:30:51,640 --> 01:30:55,120
Speaker 4: the wide receiver position, can we acknowledge it's been individual

1794
01:30:55,160 --> 01:30:57,840
Speaker 4: wide receivers dropping the football, not guy's not getting open.

1795
01:30:58,160 --> 01:31:01,320
Speaker 4: They're open all over the place. Like Kansas City's offense

1796
01:31:01,360 --> 01:31:04,240
Speaker 4: by design gets people. If you want to get open

1797
01:31:04,240 --> 01:31:07,240
Speaker 4: and get looks, go play for Andy Reid because he's somehow,

1798
01:31:07,280 --> 01:31:10,280
Speaker 4: some way always seems to have a design that when

1799
01:31:10,280 --> 01:31:13,719
Speaker 4: we the whole stadium, whole of the place knows exactly

1800
01:31:13,760 --> 01:31:16,280
Speaker 4: who's getting the ball, still gets the ball. And that's

1801
01:31:16,439 --> 01:31:18,280
Speaker 4: that's been happened in the last few weeks with rashe

1802
01:31:18,400 --> 01:31:21,320
Speaker 4: Rice Like the broadcast last week did a nice job

1803
01:31:21,320 --> 01:31:23,360
Speaker 4: of pointing out some of his development as a receiver.

1804
01:31:23,760 --> 01:31:26,559
Speaker 4: But my god, like rashe Rice feels like he's opened

1805
01:31:26,600 --> 01:31:28,680
Speaker 4: every other play right now, And I don't think that

1806
01:31:28,760 --> 01:31:30,800
Speaker 4: happens if for she Rice is a wide receiver for

1807
01:31:30,840 --> 01:31:33,400
Speaker 4: the Panthers, right like that happens because he's a wide

1808
01:31:33,400 --> 01:31:34,479
Speaker 4: receiver for Andy Reid.

1809
01:31:35,439 --> 01:31:36,040
Speaker 3: Yeah. Man.

1810
01:31:36,200 --> 01:31:40,719
Speaker 2: And and then how about that throw Mahomes, the one

1811
01:31:40,800 --> 01:31:44,040
Speaker 2: to Valdez scantling on the sideline. The ball caught valve,

1812
01:31:44,080 --> 01:31:49,439
Speaker 2: that's caught Valdez scantling like he made sure he's stuck

1813
01:31:49,479 --> 01:31:50,479
Speaker 2: it in his shoulder pad.

1814
01:31:50,680 --> 01:31:52,599
Speaker 3: He made sure that he couldn't drop it.

1815
01:31:53,680 --> 01:31:57,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, which is think about to what you're asking a

1816
01:31:57,760 --> 01:32:01,240
Speaker 4: quarterback to do and having faith in somebody that nobody

1817
01:32:01,240 --> 01:32:03,240
Speaker 4: else would have faith in at this point, you know,

1818
01:32:03,360 --> 01:32:06,320
Speaker 4: like they always talk about confidence from a quarterback and

1819
01:32:06,400 --> 01:32:07,960
Speaker 4: timing from the quarterback.

1820
01:32:07,560 --> 01:32:09,360
Speaker 5: And trust from the quarterback.

1821
01:32:09,800 --> 01:32:12,759
Speaker 4: Mahomes should have none of that with any of these guys.

1822
01:32:13,120 --> 01:32:15,960
Speaker 4: And then he turns around and does It's just it's

1823
01:32:16,120 --> 01:32:18,479
Speaker 4: it's every time the ball is in the air, there's

1824
01:32:18,520 --> 01:32:21,320
Speaker 4: a collective gasp of everyone holding their breath to see

1825
01:32:21,320 --> 01:32:24,439
Speaker 4: who's gonna attempt to catch that pass.

1826
01:32:24,479 --> 01:32:25,400
Speaker 5: It's pretty wild.

1827
01:32:25,800 --> 01:32:29,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is all right, let's do this because I

1828
01:32:29,800 --> 01:32:35,240
Speaker 2: want to get into Niners Lions, and we're gonna start

1829
01:32:35,400 --> 01:32:37,880
Speaker 2: We'll dive deep, like we just stayed with Baltimore Kansas

1830
01:32:37,920 --> 01:32:40,880
Speaker 2: City and hit every angle and there's lots to get to,

1831
01:32:40,960 --> 01:32:45,920
Speaker 2: like shatahand both offenses. But the one thing I want

1832
01:32:45,920 --> 01:32:48,960
Speaker 2: to start with coming up is the city of Detroit.

1833
01:32:50,560 --> 01:32:54,400
Speaker 2: And I think about that franchise and with Daven Dured

1834
01:32:55,760 --> 01:32:59,240
Speaker 2: and the only, I mean, the only bright spot in

1835
01:32:59,360 --> 01:33:04,800
Speaker 2: all those was Barry And now you actually have a

1836
01:33:04,840 --> 01:33:08,840
Speaker 2: team that is really good and there's no fan base

1837
01:33:08,880 --> 01:33:11,640
Speaker 2: that deserves it, like I think, like the like the Lions,

1838
01:33:11,680 --> 01:33:15,320
Speaker 2: like it's really really cool. So we'll start there and

1839
01:33:15,360 --> 01:33:20,320
Speaker 2: then dive into Niners Lions in the NFC title game

1840
01:33:20,680 --> 01:33:25,120
Speaker 2: where the fellas. He's Jason Fitzamanthony Garganta right here Fox

1841
01:33:25,160 --> 01:33:34,519
Speaker 2: Sports Radio. So Whitey Mark brought up an interesting question

1842
01:33:34,680 --> 01:33:39,320
Speaker 2: during the break. He asked me if I knew what

1843
01:33:39,600 --> 01:33:46,120
Speaker 2: the breakfast. There was a movie called Moonstruck and she

1844
01:33:46,320 --> 01:33:49,639

1866
01:35:00,400 --> 01:35:02,200
Speaker 5: So you don't like a good running egg on a

1867
01:35:02,200 --> 01:35:03,000
Speaker 5: burger like.

1868
01:35:03,520 --> 01:35:05,599
Speaker 2: Oh no, yeah, no, I can't do it. I know

01:35:05,720 --> 01:35:07,800
Speaker 2: the egg on the burger. Thing made a run. I

01:35:08,600 --> 01:35:10,000
Speaker 2: ran from it.

1871
01:35:12,200 --> 01:35:14,560
Speaker 5: It made a run. I ran. That's amazing.

1872
01:35:16,160 --> 01:35:19,920
Speaker 4: We we, by the way, we should very much make

1873
01:35:19,920 --> 01:35:21,479
Speaker 4: sure that you never come over to my place for

1874
01:35:21,520 --> 01:35:24,840
Speaker 4: breakfast because it's usually two cups of egg whites that

1875
01:35:24,960 --> 01:35:26,400
Speaker 4: you know, just a little bit of cheese on some

1876
01:35:26,439 --> 01:35:29,080
Speaker 4: egg whites. And that's almost every day of my life,

1877
01:35:29,080 --> 01:35:30,040
Speaker 4: two cups of egg whites.

1878
01:35:30,120 --> 01:35:34,519
Speaker 2: So i'd bet you I wish I wish I liked

1879
01:35:34,520 --> 01:35:39,240
Speaker 2: eggs like I wish I could listen make life a

1880
01:35:39,280 --> 01:35:41,360
Speaker 2: lot easier because.

1881
01:35:41,240 --> 01:35:44,479
Speaker 4: The you know, the sour dough bread thing with the

1882
01:35:44,479 --> 01:35:46,719
Speaker 4: egg in the middle of it is a very British

1883
01:35:46,720 --> 01:35:48,600
Speaker 4: thing too, where they put like the like when I

1884
01:35:48,640 --> 01:35:50,400
Speaker 4: was in London the first time I had that, that's

1885
01:35:50,400 --> 01:35:51,960
Speaker 4: the first time I had it that way, humble break

1886
01:35:52,000 --> 01:35:54,120
Speaker 4: the way I said that. But you put the little

1887
01:35:54,160 --> 01:35:56,080
Speaker 4: egg inside the hole in the sami.

1888
01:35:56,320 --> 01:35:57,400
Speaker 5: That's good, it's good stuff.

1889
01:35:57,400 --> 01:35:59,559
Speaker 4: Like I'm I'm if that's the only part of the

1890
01:35:59,640 --> 01:36:01,000
Speaker 4: British breakfast I really liked.

1891
01:36:01,000 --> 01:36:03,720
Speaker 2: Because they also like people were talking about it what

1892
01:36:03,760 --> 01:36:08,600
Speaker 2: that was called, and then somebody said it was exsbetted

1893
01:36:08,680 --> 01:36:10,880
Speaker 2: that I guess there's there's a sauce on top of

1894
01:36:10,920 --> 01:36:11,879
Speaker 2: it for okay.

1895
01:36:11,680 --> 01:36:14,600
Speaker 4: Eggs Benedict is totally Whoever said that was ex Benedict,

1896
01:36:15,000 --> 01:36:18,360
Speaker 4: go have some ex ex Benedict is English muffin, all right,

1897
01:36:18,479 --> 01:36:20,840
Speaker 4: it's a it's a perfect so okay, if you've ever

1898
01:36:20,880 --> 01:36:23,960
Speaker 4: had an egg McMuffin, right, The concept of an egg

1899
01:36:24,040 --> 01:36:27,400
Speaker 4: McMuffin was McDonald saying, how do we make an easily

1900
01:36:27,439 --> 01:36:31,360
Speaker 4: digestible like quick easy egg, Benedict, that's what it is like.

1901
01:36:31,439 --> 01:36:34,360
Speaker 4: So it's supposed to be an English muffin with a

1902
01:36:34,360 --> 01:36:37,599
Speaker 4: piece of like ham on it and then an egg

1903
01:36:37,800 --> 01:36:39,840
Speaker 4: and then a Hollandais sauce on top of it, so

1904
01:36:39,920 --> 01:36:41,120
Speaker 4: that that that's eggs Benny.

1905
01:36:41,200 --> 01:36:44,000
Speaker 5: But uh, the egg McMuffin was just there.

1906
01:36:44,200 --> 01:36:47,000
Speaker 4: Instead, they replaced a Hollandais sauce with the slice of

1907
01:36:47,000 --> 01:36:51,120
Speaker 4: American cheese, and they made the egg, you know, easily easy,

1908
01:36:51,320 --> 01:36:53,439
Speaker 4: floppable instead of running.

1909
01:36:53,640 --> 01:36:55,160
Speaker 5: So that's that's the only difference.

1910
01:36:54,880 --> 01:36:59,400
Speaker 2: There, okay. And then the wae with the hole that

1911
01:37:00,200 --> 01:37:02,639
Speaker 2: ks talking about like he thought.

1912
01:37:02,479 --> 01:37:04,559
Speaker 6: You I thought. I just thought you might know the

1913
01:37:04,680 --> 01:37:07,080
Speaker 6: name of it. That's all my question was about. Just

1914
01:37:07,160 --> 01:37:08,840
Speaker 6: I didn't know if it was a name to it.

1915
01:37:08,960 --> 01:37:10,599
Speaker 6: I was gonna I didn't want to look it up

1916
01:37:10,640 --> 01:37:13,400
Speaker 6: yet before consulting you.

1917
01:37:14,000 --> 01:37:14,680
Speaker 3: I didn't know.

1918
01:37:14,840 --> 01:37:18,120
Speaker 2: I yeah, I'm not a breakfast and I don't think

1919
01:37:18,160 --> 01:37:22,200
Speaker 2: that that's a I think that's a pretty common breakfast.

1920
01:37:22,200 --> 01:37:23,920
Speaker 3: I don't think that's a cultural thing.

1921
01:37:24,680 --> 01:37:26,559
Speaker 4: I always grew up and a hole. That was what

1922
01:37:26,880 --> 01:37:29,240
Speaker 4: like what I mean, that's what I've always grew up.

1923
01:37:29,280 --> 01:37:30,600
Speaker 4: That's what I always heard. After I had it, I

1924
01:37:30,600 --> 01:37:31,280
Speaker 4: always heard.

1925
01:37:31,240 --> 01:37:33,120
Speaker 3: And hooleenhole there you go.

1926
01:37:34,240 --> 01:37:36,120
Speaker 4: I don't know if that's accurate, though, I mean, that

1927
01:37:36,400 --> 01:37:39,080
Speaker 4: could just be you know, a bunch of country bumpkins

1928
01:37:39,080 --> 01:37:39,880
Speaker 4: sitting on a tour bus.

1929
01:37:39,920 --> 01:37:42,040
Speaker 5: Somebody calls it egg and hole. I don't know, but

1930
01:37:42,080 --> 01:37:43,280
Speaker 5: that's what i've that's what I heard.

1931
01:37:43,840 --> 01:37:48,000
Speaker 2: All right, Listen, that's good, all right, Uh, thanks Marky,

1932
01:37:48,160 --> 01:37:52,160
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. Uh, let's talk about the

1933
01:37:52,200 --> 01:37:58,680
Speaker 2: city of Detroit, all right, and what the city of

1934
01:37:58,760 --> 01:38:02,800
Speaker 2: Detroit has endured. Like we talk about the plight of Buffalo. See,

1935
01:38:02,800 --> 01:38:08,000
Speaker 2: there's different types of suffering. Buffalo has suffered from the

1936
01:38:08,040 --> 01:38:14,439
Speaker 2: curse of close. Like there's a special kind of torture

1937
01:38:15,800 --> 01:38:22,439
Speaker 2: that leads you to the mountaintop only to go tumbling

1938
01:38:22,560 --> 01:38:26,080
Speaker 2: back down before you get elation, right before you can

1939
01:38:26,120 --> 01:38:26,839
Speaker 2: get that elation.

1940
01:38:28,240 --> 01:38:30,000
Speaker 3: That's a special type of torture.

1941
01:38:30,800 --> 01:38:36,040
Speaker 2: The lion's torture is that they have been just horrific

1942
01:38:37,240 --> 01:38:43,280
Speaker 2: forever and ever and ever. And that's just a state

1943
01:38:43,320 --> 01:38:49,599
Speaker 2: of misery where there's no joy ever, and the only

1944
01:38:49,760 --> 01:38:52,720
Speaker 2: joy that you get is maybe a player comes in

1945
01:38:54,040 --> 01:38:56,960
Speaker 2: like a Barry Sanders that you get to just watch

1946
01:38:58,240 --> 01:39:04,160
Speaker 2: even though your team blows. Like that's that's a type

1947
01:39:04,200 --> 01:39:09,480
Speaker 2: of misery of sports, misery that is deep and wounding.

1948
01:39:09,880 --> 01:39:10,280
Speaker 3: Fitsy.

1949
01:39:11,760 --> 01:39:14,360
Speaker 4: It's interesting to me because I've got a couple of

1950
01:39:14,360 --> 01:39:16,200
Speaker 4: friends that are big Lions fans, and I asked them

1951
01:39:16,200 --> 01:39:19,640
Speaker 4: the other day, Hey, did you just preliminarily have you

1952
01:39:19,760 --> 01:39:22,360
Speaker 4: looked at maybe flights, like you think of a flight

1953
01:39:22,439 --> 01:39:24,439
Speaker 4: out for the Super Bowl, Like if you start and

1954
01:39:24,479 --> 01:39:26,160
Speaker 4: a lot of fan bases, you start to get to

1955
01:39:26,240 --> 01:39:28,160
Speaker 4: Champ weekend, a lot of fan bases you know this,

1956
01:39:28,240 --> 01:39:29,719
Speaker 4: are getting out there and they're like, I'll get ahead,

1957
01:39:29,720 --> 01:39:31,680
Speaker 4: I'll buy the flight. I can always get it refunded, right,

1958
01:39:31,760 --> 01:39:35,600
Speaker 4: that sort of thing. And the few Lions fans of

1959
01:39:35,640 --> 01:39:38,200
Speaker 4: my life haven't found any yet that even some of

1960
01:39:38,200 --> 01:39:40,599
Speaker 4: the people that have the means have been like, nah,

1961
01:39:40,600 --> 01:39:43,080
Speaker 4: it's the Lions, we'll screw it up. I think that

1962
01:39:43,160 --> 01:39:46,600
Speaker 4: speaks to what you're talking about. There's a level of

1963
01:39:46,680 --> 01:39:48,639
Speaker 4: joy and what they've seen, but also just a level

1964
01:39:48,680 --> 01:39:51,200
Speaker 4: of caution in really being able to embrace it. And

1965
01:39:51,240 --> 01:39:55,360
Speaker 4: it's funny because everything about this Lions team is easy

1966
01:39:55,360 --> 01:39:59,920
Speaker 4: to root for, the players, the stadium experience over the

1967
01:40:00,040 --> 01:40:03,360
Speaker 4: last few weeks, you had a coach, the identity of

1968
01:40:03,400 --> 01:40:08,200
Speaker 4: this team. It's just look, no discredit to forty nine

1969
01:40:08,280 --> 01:40:10,439
Speaker 4: Ers fans, but let's be real here, if you are

1970
01:40:10,479 --> 01:40:12,840
Speaker 4: not a life on diehard forty nine Ers fan, you

1971
01:40:12,880 --> 01:40:15,599
Speaker 4: are rooting for the for the Lions. America is rooting

1972
01:40:15,600 --> 01:40:17,519
Speaker 4: for the Lions. Like the script writers need to get

1973
01:40:17,520 --> 01:40:18,880
Speaker 4: it right and put Detroit in the super Bowl.

1974
01:40:18,880 --> 01:40:24,559
Speaker 2: That's totally there's no In fact, it's you know again,

1975
01:40:24,600 --> 01:40:30,920
Speaker 2: the Niners are one of these you know, amazing you

1976
01:40:30,960 --> 01:40:35,440
Speaker 2: know franchises of all time, right, they're an all time franchise.

1977
01:40:37,640 --> 01:40:40,320
Speaker 3: What's sort of roof for there? I mean, it's clear

1978
01:40:40,479 --> 01:40:42,200
Speaker 3: we all want to see de truck is.

1979
01:40:43,000 --> 01:40:47,080
Speaker 2: Deep down we all know we all can relate to

1980
01:40:47,200 --> 01:40:47,920
Speaker 2: those people.

1981
01:40:49,640 --> 01:40:51,000
Speaker 3: I mean, if you have a soul.

1982
01:40:51,800 --> 01:40:55,639
Speaker 4: That's but what we were saying there is so real.

1983
01:40:55,960 --> 01:40:59,320
Speaker 4: Like we were talking earlier about how you know, as fans,

1984
01:40:59,360 --> 01:41:01,800
Speaker 4: so often there's like a line and you only want

1985
01:41:01,840 --> 01:41:05,160
Speaker 4: so much success. The opposite is if you're a fan

1986
01:41:05,200 --> 01:41:07,439
Speaker 4: of a team that has just struggled to find it.

1987
01:41:07,840 --> 01:41:10,759
Speaker 4: The Lions are the great hope, right Like, how many

1988
01:41:10,800 --> 01:41:13,640
Speaker 4: times have we heard the Dan Campbell comparisons over the

1989
01:41:13,720 --> 01:41:16,400
Speaker 4: last couple of weeks with other coaching hires, right Like,

1990
01:41:16,439 --> 01:41:21,480
Speaker 4: it's you know, you've got to find your Dan Campbell. Like, unbelievably,

1991
01:41:21,960 --> 01:41:24,680
Speaker 4: Jared Goff was doubted at every step. Dan Campbell was

1992
01:41:24,680 --> 01:41:26,559
Speaker 4: doubted at every step the Heck, a lot of people

1993
01:41:26,640 --> 01:41:29,760
Speaker 4: gave the Lions an f for their draft last year,

1994
01:41:29,840 --> 01:41:31,839
Speaker 4: and that draft class has turned out to be absolutely

1995
01:41:31,920 --> 01:41:34,120
Speaker 4: incredible for him, right Like, this is a Lions team

1996
01:41:34,479 --> 01:41:36,720
Speaker 4: that has been doubted at every step, and now they

1997
01:41:36,760 --> 01:41:39,320
Speaker 4: sit right where they are and they're not here because

1998
01:41:39,360 --> 01:41:40,000
Speaker 4: they're lucky.

1999
01:41:40,240 --> 01:41:41,360
Speaker 5: They're here because they're good.

2000
01:41:41,680 --> 01:41:44,080
Speaker 4: Like this is that's the part of it we need

2001
01:41:44,120 --> 01:41:47,280
Speaker 4: to really hone in on, because like the way that

2002
01:41:47,360 --> 01:41:49,040
Speaker 4: they have played throughout the course of the season.

2003
01:41:49,320 --> 01:41:51,479
Speaker 5: Yeah, they've had some games that I think.

2004
01:41:51,280 --> 01:41:53,439
Speaker 4: Were regrettable, and turnover has been them of the butt,

2005
01:41:53,560 --> 01:41:55,040
Speaker 4: But for the most part, they've been one of the

2006
01:41:55,040 --> 01:41:57,559
Speaker 4: better teams in the NFC and in the playoffs, they've

2007
01:41:57,560 --> 01:41:59,680
Speaker 4: been every bit the deserving team of being where they

2008
01:41:59,720 --> 01:42:00,360
Speaker 4: are right now.

2009
01:42:02,200 --> 01:42:05,720
Speaker 2: You know, uh, you got a glimpse of the few.

2010
01:42:05,800 --> 01:42:08,600
Speaker 2: Every once in a while, the league will give you

2011
01:42:08,680 --> 01:42:12,799
Speaker 2: a glimpse of the future. And that game last year,

2012
01:42:13,040 --> 01:42:15,360
Speaker 2: it was like one of the last games of the season.

2013
01:42:16,320 --> 01:42:20,200
Speaker 3: Lions went into green Bay. Green Bay needed the game.

2014
01:42:20,240 --> 01:42:22,400
Speaker 2: I think it was the Sunday night game to end

2015
01:42:22,400 --> 01:42:27,920
Speaker 2: the season, and they won at Lambeau and you went,

2016
01:42:28,040 --> 01:42:31,839
Speaker 2: you know what, that's going to carry over. They're building

2017
01:42:31,920 --> 01:42:36,000
Speaker 2: something and lo and behold man, that team. Look what

2018
01:42:36,080 --> 01:42:42,040
Speaker 2: they did. They take they draft Gibbs and then they

2019
01:42:42,200 --> 01:42:45,200
Speaker 2: take and then they pay Montgomery.

2020
01:42:46,600 --> 01:42:50,000
Speaker 3: How about that? But that's an underrated move right there.

2021
01:42:51,120 --> 01:42:53,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, and a move that was questioned at the time,

2022
01:42:53,320 --> 01:42:57,479
Speaker 4: right like yeah, you start thinking about sort of the

2023
01:42:57,479 --> 01:43:00,000
Speaker 4: way we reacted to that, and it only made people

2024
01:43:00,040 --> 01:43:04,400
Speaker 4: will yell more. But you look at this, like we

2025
01:43:04,520 --> 01:43:08,599
Speaker 4: mentioned earlier, they also draft Laporta. Brian Branch has turned

2026
01:43:08,600 --> 01:43:10,160
Speaker 4: out to be a big player for him, you know,

2027
01:43:10,200 --> 01:43:13,719
Speaker 4: and we won't know for several years, but they draft

2028
01:43:13,720 --> 01:43:16,240
Speaker 4: Hendon Hooker in the third round. Who they knew they

2029
01:43:16,280 --> 01:43:18,320
Speaker 4: were going to red shirt this year, but they give

2030
01:43:18,400 --> 01:43:20,840
Speaker 4: themselves sort of it could Hendon Hooker turn into their

2031
01:43:20,920 --> 01:43:25,559
Speaker 4: Jordan Love maybe? Who knows, right, so I'm saying that

2032
01:43:25,600 --> 01:43:27,760
Speaker 4: because the Lions have become the sort of franchise that

2033
01:43:27,840 --> 01:43:30,000
Speaker 4: now deserves benefit of the doubt for what they're doing.

2034
01:43:30,280 --> 01:43:31,240
Speaker 5: And that's wild.

2035
01:43:31,520 --> 01:43:34,680
Speaker 4: Like that's think about that statement, like we should be

2036
01:43:34,720 --> 01:43:36,719
Speaker 4: looking at it and be like, hey, smart move the Lions.

2037
01:43:37,160 --> 01:43:39,720
Speaker 5: The Lions do smart things, so that's probably a smart move.

2038
01:43:40,000 --> 01:43:40,760
Speaker 5: Like that's where we.

2039
01:43:40,720 --> 01:43:44,240
Speaker 2: Are on Detroit now, I know, I mean just building

2040
01:43:44,280 --> 01:43:46,400
Speaker 2: their team. Hold the thought because I want to go

2041
01:43:46,479 --> 01:43:50,080
Speaker 2: further with the Lions. I'm enamored and that offense is

2042
01:43:50,960 --> 01:43:54,839
Speaker 2: just really really good. But first, let's find out what's trending.

2043

2085
01:46:28,400 --> 01:46:32,320
Speaker 2: Back to the Fellas, All right, thanks, buddy, We are

2086
01:46:32,400 --> 01:46:37,120
Speaker 2: the Fellas live from the tier rack dot com studios.

2087
01:46:38,600 --> 01:46:41,240
Speaker 3: So let's go further with his offense.

2088
01:46:41,280 --> 01:46:49,280
Speaker 2: I mean, Goff has become exactly the kind of quarterback

2089
01:46:49,360 --> 01:46:55,120
Speaker 2: that the offense sets up for, right, because you need

2090
01:46:55,160 --> 01:46:59,000
Speaker 2: someone to make a couple stick throws, right someone I

2091
01:46:59,040 --> 01:47:02,519
Speaker 2: don't want to say game manager because he's more than that.

2092
01:47:02,840 --> 01:47:06,559
Speaker 2: And you know, you look at Saint Brown and he's

2093
01:47:06,880 --> 01:47:08,160
Speaker 2: every bit of C. D.

2094
01:47:08,439 --> 01:47:12,679
Speaker 3: Lamb, and like they'll use him in that.

2095
01:47:12,640 --> 01:47:17,840
Speaker 2: Role, feed him targets Laporta we talked about earlier. I

2096
01:47:18,280 --> 01:47:21,479
Speaker 2: love him man to me, he's Kelsey in the making

2097
01:47:22,560 --> 01:47:25,120
Speaker 2: and with that running game. And then you got you

2098
01:47:25,280 --> 01:47:29,479
Speaker 2: throw in like at Josh Reynolds right like that. That's

2099
01:47:29,680 --> 01:47:32,800
Speaker 2: and James and James the Williams who's starting to come

2100
01:47:32,840 --> 01:47:37,120
Speaker 2: on a little bit. Like that offense is a nasty offense.

2101
01:47:37,200 --> 01:47:40,280
Speaker 3: Man, That's that's a really strong offense.

2102
01:47:41,200 --> 01:47:44,480
Speaker 4: I'm gonna add one other thing to that offense. And

2103
01:47:44,520 --> 01:47:46,600
Speaker 4: this is just it's seared.

2104
01:47:46,240 --> 01:47:47,280
Speaker 5: In my brain. Right.

2105
01:47:47,320 --> 01:47:49,240
Speaker 4: Maybe it's because I was talking to a bunch of

2106
01:47:49,240 --> 01:47:52,439
Speaker 4: fat guys Sunday night, But there was a play in

2107
01:47:52,520 --> 01:47:55,559
Speaker 4: the in the game last weekend where Piney Sewell had

2108
01:47:55,600 --> 01:47:58,000
Speaker 4: to pull all the way across the line. I had

2109
01:47:58,000 --> 01:47:59,640
Speaker 4: to pull all the way across to blow up the

2110
01:47:59,640 --> 01:48:01,759
Speaker 4: block on the other side, which freed up the running

2111
01:48:01,800 --> 01:48:04,040
Speaker 4: back to go up the gut. And I looked at

2112
01:48:04,040 --> 01:48:07,000
Speaker 4: that and I thought, Man, how many people right now

2113
01:48:07,040 --> 01:48:10,479
Speaker 4: sitting here yelling about their favorite football team don't realize

2114
01:48:10,479 --> 01:48:14,200
Speaker 4: that Pine Suel, who is all of three hundred and something,

2115
01:48:15,000 --> 01:48:18,240
Speaker 4: can run forty yards faster than ninety percent of the

2116
01:48:18,240 --> 01:48:21,160
Speaker 4: people that are sitting there on their couch watching football. Like,

2117
01:48:21,640 --> 01:48:25,439
Speaker 4: the level of athleticism from that offensive line is I

2118
01:48:25,439 --> 01:48:28,559
Speaker 4: think stunning, and it's good. They're going to need every

2119
01:48:28,560 --> 01:48:31,599
Speaker 4: ounce of it because obviously, you know, how they match

2120
01:48:31,680 --> 01:48:35,519
Speaker 4: up against Bosa and Chase Young and the forty nine

2121
01:48:35,600 --> 01:48:37,360
Speaker 4: ers defensive front is going to be a huge part

2122
01:48:37,400 --> 01:48:40,639
Speaker 4: of this football game. But it's also interesting to me, cousin,

2123
01:48:40,680 --> 01:48:44,000
Speaker 4: because I think there's real opportunities with that line to

2124
01:48:44,720 --> 01:48:46,680
Speaker 4: you know, sort of mix things up. There's going to

2125
01:48:46,720 --> 01:48:48,880
Speaker 4: be opportunities where when we saw this a couple of

2126
01:48:48,880 --> 01:48:52,320
Speaker 4: times last week, where they let Bosa go free, you know,

2127
01:48:52,439 --> 01:48:54,040
Speaker 4: and all of a sudden just to try and dump

2128
01:48:54,080 --> 01:48:55,960
Speaker 4: the ball around him, Like, can you make an aggressive

2129
01:48:56,000 --> 01:48:59,040
Speaker 4: defensive line make mistakes? I think that there is a

2130
01:48:59,040 --> 01:49:02,040
Speaker 4: lot that's really fake favorable for this Lion's offense. I

2131
01:49:02,600 --> 01:49:04,680
Speaker 4: genuinely believe they're gonna be able to score points on

2132
01:49:04,680 --> 01:49:06,760
Speaker 4: the forty nine ers. And part of that comes from

2133
01:49:06,760 --> 01:49:08,679
Speaker 4: all the weapons you just laid out, all the speed

2134
01:49:08,720 --> 01:49:10,760
Speaker 4: they have, and the fact that Jared Goff has been

2135
01:49:10,800 --> 01:49:11,479
Speaker 4: in these moments.

2136
01:49:11,479 --> 01:49:13,240
Speaker 5: He knows what big football plays like.

2137
01:49:13,240 --> 01:49:13,320
Speaker 2: Like.

2138
01:49:13,400 --> 01:49:15,080
Speaker 5: It's not we forget that.

2139
01:49:15,120 --> 01:49:18,680
Speaker 4: He's been in these He's been NFC Championship game, not

2140
01:49:18,760 --> 01:49:22,080
Speaker 4: something new for him, right, So he's gonna have comfort

2141
01:49:22,120 --> 01:49:23,880
Speaker 4: in this. I think that the Lions are gonna move

2142
01:49:23,920 --> 01:49:25,880
Speaker 4: the football. I think the Lions are gonna score points.

2143
01:49:27,439 --> 01:49:31,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I look, I think both teams are gonna score

2144
01:49:34,720 --> 01:49:37,080
Speaker 2: and it's just gonna be like who can get the stops?

2145
01:49:37,160 --> 01:49:38,280
Speaker 3: Right? Can you can't?

2146
01:49:38,280 --> 01:49:41,240
Speaker 2: And again because you look on the flip side, and

2147
01:49:41,560 --> 01:49:45,960
Speaker 2: it's interesting because of what Shanahan does and what Purty

2148
01:49:45,960 --> 01:49:49,720
Speaker 2: and I know you've loved Party from the jump and

2149
01:49:50,400 --> 01:49:51,759
Speaker 2: you know what he's been.

2150
01:49:51,640 --> 01:49:54,440
Speaker 3: Able to do with that offense.

2151
01:49:54,600 --> 01:49:57,320
Speaker 2: I think they're going to try to You're gonna get

2152
01:49:57,360 --> 01:50:02,400
Speaker 2: heavy McCaffrey, right, because that's the one area where the

2153
01:50:02,920 --> 01:50:05,519
Speaker 2: Lions don't have any answer, especially with McCaffrey out of

2154
01:50:05,560 --> 01:50:06,200
Speaker 2: the backfield.

2155
01:50:06,920 --> 01:50:08,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know.

2156
01:50:08,200 --> 01:50:13,559
Speaker 4: That's like party was not great. Look, we can two

2157
01:50:13,640 --> 01:50:16,240
Speaker 4: things can be true at once. Perty had a rough

2158
01:50:16,280 --> 01:50:20,200
Speaker 4: game and a great last drive, right, Like, just the

2159
01:50:20,240 --> 01:50:23,040
Speaker 4: accuracy was all over the place early on on that game.

2160
01:50:23,080 --> 01:50:26,040
Speaker 4: And you know how much of that was the weather,

2161
01:50:26,520 --> 01:50:27,040
Speaker 4: how much.

2162
01:50:26,920 --> 01:50:28,920
Speaker 5: Of that was just the nerves? We don't know.

2163
01:50:29,360 --> 01:50:31,240
Speaker 2: I mean, the one thing I want to give the

2164
01:50:31,320 --> 01:50:34,840
Speaker 2: benefit of doubt with is like he kept he came

2165
01:50:34,880 --> 01:50:37,040
Speaker 2: on with the glove, he took the glove off, like

2166
01:50:37,640 --> 01:50:40,600
Speaker 2: he clearly was having issues with the football. It was

2167
01:50:40,640 --> 01:50:44,559
Speaker 2: a driving rainstorm. So I mean, I'm fine to give

2168
01:50:44,600 --> 01:50:45,920
Speaker 2: him the benefit of the doubt there.

2169
01:50:46,560 --> 01:50:47,599
Speaker 5: Yeah, one hundred.

2170
01:50:48,360 --> 01:50:52,920
Speaker 4: I think in a world of sweeping generalizations, last week

2171
01:50:52,960 --> 01:50:55,479
Speaker 4: we went from pretty sucks to Perty's great all in

2172
01:50:55,600 --> 01:50:58,920
Speaker 4: one game. And I think the answer probably a little

2173
01:50:58,920 --> 01:51:01,200
Speaker 4: in the middle on that. But like, this game should

2174
01:51:01,200 --> 01:51:04,040
Speaker 4: not come down to brock Perty and look, Debo being

2175
01:51:04,080 --> 01:51:06,439
Speaker 4: cleared and medically and letting the world know that he's

2176
01:51:06,479 --> 01:51:08,840
Speaker 4: one hundred percent, no hesitation, He's not one hundred percent,

2177
01:51:08,840 --> 01:51:12,679
Speaker 4: but there's no limitations is huge for this offense because

2178
01:51:12,680 --> 01:51:14,120
Speaker 4: they don't look as good without him in there. But

2179
01:51:14,120 --> 01:51:16,720
Speaker 4: you're right, this is all about Christian McCaffrey, and I

2180
01:51:16,720 --> 01:51:19,760
Speaker 4: feel like to use the old Madden analogy. Sometimes you're

2181
01:51:19,760 --> 01:51:22,240
Speaker 4: playing Madden with people and you feel like if you

2182
01:51:22,360 --> 01:51:24,479
Speaker 4: just force them to punt, you won the game. That's

2183
01:51:24,479 --> 01:51:27,160
Speaker 4: how the Lions defense is gonna feel like. Anytime they

2184
01:51:27,160 --> 01:51:29,000
Speaker 4: get the forty nine ers off the field, it's like, hey,

2185
01:51:29,000 --> 01:51:31,320
Speaker 4: we got a shot here. I feel like the Lions

2186
01:51:31,320 --> 01:51:33,719
Speaker 4: can score. But you're right, I don't think the Lions

2187
01:51:33,720 --> 01:51:35,720
Speaker 4: can necessarily stop the forty.

2188
01:51:35,520 --> 01:51:38,000
Speaker 5: Nine ers from scoring. And that's why this game just

2189
01:51:38,040 --> 01:51:38,879
Speaker 5: becomes electric.

2190
01:51:39,960 --> 01:51:44,439
Speaker 2: I know, dude, it's so true. It's so true. You

2191
01:51:44,479 --> 01:51:47,160
Speaker 2: bring up Madden, you know what's wild like? And I

2192
01:51:47,200 --> 01:51:49,760
Speaker 2: saw the last couple of weeks. Do you remember the

2193
01:51:49,800 --> 01:51:55,760
Speaker 2: Colts Texas game to get in the playoffs where they

2194
01:51:55,800 --> 01:51:59,000
Speaker 2: get they bleed like half the fourth quarter on that

2195
01:51:59,120 --> 01:52:04,200
Speaker 2: drive cults and then they can't convert the fourth and two.

2196
01:52:05,520 --> 01:52:12,120
Speaker 2: And last week it was similar with these coaches. You

2197
01:52:12,200 --> 01:52:15,360
Speaker 2: gotta make sure you score. I know they want to

2198
01:52:15,360 --> 01:52:17,839
Speaker 2: play mad and not leave any and not leave the clock.

2199
01:52:17,960 --> 01:52:21,360
Speaker 2: But Buffalo is the same way, like you got to

2200
01:52:21,400 --> 01:52:22,680
Speaker 2: go and score.

2201
01:52:23,800 --> 01:52:24,320
Speaker 5: Like you can't.

2202
01:52:24,960 --> 01:52:27,439
Speaker 2: And I know I get why Buffalo is steak bid

2203
01:52:27,560 --> 01:52:32,760
Speaker 2: from the thirteen seconds and everything, but you still like,

2204
01:52:33,280 --> 01:52:36,559
Speaker 2: you gotta score, you gotta tie it or go ahead

2205
01:52:36,680 --> 01:52:38,920
Speaker 2: or whatever it is. You gotta get the ball in

2206
01:52:38,960 --> 01:52:40,439
Speaker 2: the end zone before you worry about clock.

2207
01:52:41,160 --> 01:52:42,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, and we know that Dan Campbell is gonna be

2208
01:52:42,960 --> 01:52:46,400
Speaker 4: bestI in this game. I will say this, what about

2209
01:52:46,439 --> 01:52:50,280
Speaker 4: the other side? Because you mentioned the way we feel

2210
01:52:50,320 --> 01:52:52,639
Speaker 4: about Buffalo And there's been plenty of hate to Josh

2211
01:52:52,680 --> 01:52:55,639
Speaker 4: Allen from a lot of places not here about the

2212
01:52:55,760 --> 01:52:58,720
Speaker 4: lack of success in the playoffs. The forty nine Ers

2213
01:52:58,760 --> 01:53:03,120
Speaker 4: are in the NFC Championship game again, Like at some point,

2214
01:53:03,479 --> 01:53:05,760
Speaker 4: the through here is Kyle Shanahan is going to start

2215
01:53:05,760 --> 01:53:07,800
Speaker 4: to feel some of this pressure, right, Like if the

2216
01:53:07,920 --> 01:53:11,160
Speaker 4: Lions and Dan Campbeill go out and win, then are

2217
01:53:11,200 --> 01:53:13,920
Speaker 4: there going to be rumblings about I don't know, Shanahan

2218
01:53:14,040 --> 01:53:16,000
Speaker 4: can't seem to win, that can't seem.

2219
01:53:15,800 --> 01:53:18,400
Speaker 5: To get him over the homp. Like that's the unfair

2220
01:53:18,439 --> 01:53:19,240
Speaker 5: world we live in.

2221
01:53:19,280 --> 01:53:22,599
Speaker 4: But man, it's amazing to me that in a world

2222
01:53:22,640 --> 01:53:25,559
Speaker 4: where everybody else seems to be sticky for some reason,

2223
01:53:25,960 --> 01:53:28,519
Speaker 4: Kyle Shanahan and the forty nine Ers are teflong, Like they.

2224
01:53:28,400 --> 01:53:30,559
Speaker 5: Get to the NFC championship game with the Super.

2225
01:53:30,360 --> 01:53:32,880
Speaker 4: Bowl basically every year, but they don't win it and

2226
01:53:32,880 --> 01:53:33,840
Speaker 4: everybody's good with it.

2227
01:53:35,640 --> 01:53:39,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel you. Man, it's a great point.

2228

Speaker 2: selections and props that he likes.

2243
01:54:44,800 --> 01:54:46,880
Speaker 3: Uh, my man gains he.

2244
01:54:46,960 --> 01:54:53,320
Speaker 2: One question that Vince McMahon story is grizzly and he's

2245
01:54:53,360 --> 01:54:59,480
Speaker 2: accused of He stepped down as chairman and so he is,

2246
01:55:00,320 --> 01:55:04,080
Speaker 2: he's now out. I mean that stuff is just nasty.

2247
01:55:04,240 --> 01:55:05,600
Speaker 2: Do what's filed that lawsuit?

2248
01:55:06,360 --> 01:55:06,640
Speaker 5: Yeah?

2249
01:55:06,680 --> 01:55:11,200
Speaker 4: And he for anyone that doesn't know, wwe just completed

2250
01:55:11,240 --> 01:55:14,120
Speaker 4: their merger, right so now it's t KO. I think

2251
01:55:14,160 --> 01:55:17,280
Speaker 4: there was no choice here, knowing that they're moving forward

2252
01:55:17,320 --> 01:55:20,000
Speaker 4: as a company, knowing that you know, the Rock was

2253
01:55:20,040 --> 01:55:21,800
Speaker 4: just named to the board. It's I think it's an

2254
01:55:21,840 --> 01:55:26,080
Speaker 4: important distinction that not only does Vince step down, but

2255
01:55:26,160 --> 01:55:27,800
Speaker 4: he's also at least.

2256
01:55:27,560 --> 01:55:29,200
Speaker 5: From what I read not no longer on the board

2257
01:55:29,240 --> 01:55:29,840
Speaker 5: of directors.

2258
01:55:29,840 --> 01:55:34,520
Speaker 4: So he completely becomes disassociated with the new brand. And

2259
01:55:34,560 --> 01:55:37,560
Speaker 4: based on what's in that lawsuit and what's alleged, I mean,

2260
01:55:37,840 --> 01:55:39,640
Speaker 4: I know there's still steps to go in that, but

2261
01:55:40,240 --> 01:55:42,680
Speaker 4: if even a fraction of what he's been alleged to

2262
01:55:42,680 --> 01:55:46,440
Speaker 4: have done is true, then you know, A, he should

2263
01:55:46,520 --> 01:55:49,440
Speaker 4: be disassociated with the brand. But b this is one

2264
01:55:49,440 --> 01:55:51,320
Speaker 4: of those things that if you're TKO and you just

2265
01:55:51,360 --> 01:55:54,200
Speaker 4: complete this huge merger, the last thing you need is

2266
01:55:54,240 --> 01:55:56,880
Speaker 4: any of this. Also, you've got to look internally at

2267
01:55:56,920 --> 01:55:59,640
Speaker 4: the culture of what you're doing and saying, how did

2268
01:55:59,640 --> 01:56:02,160
Speaker 4: this happen? Right like, and who in the building could

2269
01:56:02,160 --> 01:56:04,320
Speaker 4: have known, should have known would have known, like how do.

2270
01:56:04,280 --> 01:56:07,320
Speaker 5: You make sure something like this never happens?

2271
01:56:07,400 --> 01:56:11,160
Speaker 4: Like it is so wild to me in today's world

2272
01:56:11,440 --> 01:56:13,160
Speaker 4: that you know, I've said for a long time, like

2273
01:56:13,320 --> 01:56:16,560
Speaker 4: just everybody should be looking at their previous social media.

2274
01:56:16,600 --> 01:56:18,760
Speaker 4: Every person should be looking at the way they've acted.

2275
01:56:18,760 --> 01:56:20,680
Speaker 4: Everybody should be looking at saying how do.

2276
01:56:20,640 --> 01:56:22,680
Speaker 5: We do better? How do we be better? Left and right?

2277
01:56:22,920 --> 01:56:24,920
Speaker 4: But if you're a company, like how do you get

2278
01:56:24,920 --> 01:56:27,720
Speaker 4: to this point with Vince even still in this position,

2279
01:56:28,640 --> 01:56:31,400
Speaker 4: knowing what's been accused and the fact this isn't the

2280
01:56:31,400 --> 01:56:33,680
Speaker 4: first time that he's stepped away, Like this is all

2281
01:56:33,760 --> 01:56:36,080
Speaker 4: just an abject disaster for tko.

2282
01:56:36,280 --> 01:56:40,000
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, that's that's just nasty stuff.

2283
01:56:40,640 --> 01:56:41,000
Speaker 3: All right.

2284
01:56:41,040 --> 01:56:44,160
Speaker 2: So I gotta ask you this question. So today's the

2285
01:56:44,200 --> 01:56:45,879
Speaker 2: first Saturday with no football?

2286
01:56:47,280 --> 01:56:49,440
Speaker 3: What do you like? What? What now you go to?

2287
01:56:49,480 --> 01:56:52,640
Speaker 2: You're a sports bar on Saturday's type of guy you're

2288
01:56:52,680 --> 01:56:54,680
Speaker 2: going to go just to watch Kyle hoops.

2289
01:56:54,520 --> 01:56:55,080
Speaker 3: That get on.

2290
01:56:56,840 --> 01:56:58,280
Speaker 5: I'm mixing it up today, all right.

2291
01:56:58,400 --> 01:57:01,200
Speaker 4: So you know I'm up in Connecticut and not far

2292
01:57:01,240 --> 01:57:04,520
Speaker 4: from here is Mohegan sun To Casino, and there is

Speaker 4: TV celebrities are gonna be there.

2295
01:57:09,640 --> 01:57:11,520
Speaker 5: Maybe that's why I got food on the brain. So

2296
01:57:11,560 --> 01:57:12,480
Speaker 5: I think I'm gonna go up.

01:57:24,560 --> 01:57:26,280
Speaker 4: bad dudes are going to be pouring tequila.

2302
01:57:26,360 --> 01:57:28,120
Speaker 5: So I think I'm gonna go up to casino and

2303
01:57:28,160 --> 01:57:29,200
Speaker 5: make mid day mistakes.

2304
01:57:29,400 --> 01:57:31,040
Speaker 4: You know, I'll sit in the sport book for a

2305
01:57:31,040 --> 01:57:33,800
Speaker 4: little bit, Russell the hoofs, but but yeah, mostly I

2306
01:57:33,840 --> 01:57:35,879
Speaker 4: think I'm just gonna make bad decisions at the casino.

2307
01:57:35,920 --> 01:57:36,520
Speaker 5: What about you.

2308
01:57:37,080 --> 01:57:42,000
Speaker 3: Oh that's listen my weekends, you know, my weekends. The

2309
01:57:42,800 --> 01:57:47,000
Speaker 3: night so I coach.

2310
01:57:48,480 --> 01:57:51,280
Speaker 2: My fifth grade basketball team, so we played a lot

2311
01:57:51,280 --> 01:57:54,280
Speaker 2: of we play fifth and sixth grades, our merds together,

2312
01:57:55,320 --> 01:57:56,600
Speaker 2: so we play a lot of.

2313
01:57:56,640 --> 01:57:58,280
Speaker 3: Sixth grade teams. The last night, we had a sixth

2314
01:57:58,280 --> 01:58:00,280
Speaker 3: grade team and.

2315
01:58:01,800 --> 01:58:04,040
Speaker 2: We're all losing by ten, And I was proud of

2316
01:58:04,040 --> 01:58:06,000
Speaker 2: the kids because we were down twelve and offing to

2317
01:58:06,000 --> 01:58:09,720
Speaker 2: start the game because they pressed us from the beginning. Now,

2318
01:58:10,440 --> 01:58:13,200
Speaker 2: I put in a press break and how we're supposed

2319
01:58:13,200 --> 01:58:19,080
Speaker 2: to react when a team presses us. But imagine the

2320
01:58:19,120 --> 01:58:23,440
Speaker 2: fifth graders who if you automatically put pressure on them

2321
01:58:23,440 --> 01:58:26,120
Speaker 2: from the start of the game, they somehow forget everything

2322
01:58:26,160 --> 01:58:28,080
Speaker 2: that we taught, that we were that we went over

2323
01:58:28,120 --> 01:58:28,720
Speaker 2: to practice.

2324
01:58:29,760 --> 01:58:32,960
Speaker 3: So it was it was like I had to make sure.

2325
01:58:33,240 --> 01:58:36,920
Speaker 2: And it's so interesting where you work with kids and

2326
01:58:37,000 --> 01:58:40,440
Speaker 2: when they're in stressful environments, and this is where you

2327
01:58:40,520 --> 01:58:41,640
Speaker 2: got to understand them.

2328
01:58:41,720 --> 01:58:41,960
Speaker 3: Right.

2329
01:58:43,400 --> 01:58:47,800
Speaker 2: They're they're like melting under this press They're you know,

2330
01:58:47,880 --> 01:58:49,440
Speaker 2: they're turning the ball over.

2331
01:58:49,680 --> 01:58:52,440
Speaker 3: The other team's getting layups, and then.

2332
01:58:52,320 --> 01:58:56,040
Speaker 2: They I called time out twice. Each time I called

2333
01:58:56,080 --> 01:58:57,800
Speaker 2: time out, they come walking over. They looked like they

2334
01:58:57,840 --> 01:59:01,839
Speaker 2: were gonna cry, and I had to go listen, guys,

2335
01:59:02,760 --> 01:59:06,920
Speaker 2: stay with me. Come on, no crying, no power. I

2336
01:59:06,960 --> 01:59:10,040
Speaker 2: have no pout rule. You're out of the game. Pouting

2337
01:59:10,080 --> 01:59:13,840
Speaker 2: you're out, Like you gotta stay with me. Man, all right,

2338
01:59:14,000 --> 01:59:16,720
Speaker 2: Like it's okay, just the game. We'll get through it.

2339
01:59:16,760 --> 01:59:18,560
Speaker 2: We'll just kind of calm down.

2340
01:59:19,760 --> 01:59:22,360
Speaker 3: Man. It tests you, Fitzy.

2341
01:59:22,800 --> 01:59:24,760
Speaker 5: I'm telling you real quick. I'll say this.

2342
01:59:24,800 --> 01:59:26,959
Speaker 4: I had a music teacher when I was at Juilliard

2343
01:59:26,960 --> 01:59:29,080
Speaker 4: as a kid. Then I would come off stage, and

2344
01:59:29,120 --> 01:59:30,880
Speaker 4: if I was freaking out, there was like, hey, you

2345
01:59:30,920 --> 01:59:32,640
Speaker 4: were thinking while you were playing. And if you're thinking

2346
01:59:32,640 --> 01:59:35,080
Speaker 4: in a performance, you didn't practice hard enough, you know,

2347
01:59:35,160 --> 01:59:37,400
Speaker 4: so you gotta run them harder in practice, because that's

2348
01:59:37,400 --> 01:59:38,080
Speaker 4: the only solution.

2349
01:59:38,200 --> 01:59:40,400
Speaker 5: Make them cry a practice, not during the game. There

2350
01:59:40,400 --> 01:59:40,680
Speaker 5: we go.

2351
01:59:40,880 --> 01:59:41,520
Speaker 3: I'm terrible.

2352
01:59:43,720 --> 01:59:47,400

2368
02:00:45,200 --> 02:00:49,000
Speaker 2: bat if, we're gonna if I ask you for picks.

2369
02:00:50,560 --> 02:00:56,800
Speaker 2: I'm so torn with both games. Like Baldy said to me,

2370
02:00:56,840 --> 02:00:59,800
Speaker 2: yes today, well who do you like? And I was like,

2371
02:01:00,880 --> 02:01:05,840
Speaker 2: I vacillate. I hate to be that dude, but I yes,

2372
02:01:06,120 --> 02:01:09,800
Speaker 2: me a lean. I probably leaned Baltimore just because of

2373
02:01:09,840 --> 02:01:13,879
Speaker 2: the Chiefs O line. I think that's the biggest weakness

2374
02:01:14,000 --> 02:01:18,400
Speaker 2: for Kansas City. But I mean, you know, I mean

2375
02:01:18,920 --> 02:01:20,440
Speaker 2: you doubt Mahomes.

2376
02:01:20,800 --> 02:01:25,720
Speaker 4: You know what you get, gotcha right Like, So for me,

2377
02:01:26,000 --> 02:01:28,080
Speaker 4: I'm in on Baltimore. I think Baltimore center to the

2378
02:01:28,080 --> 02:01:32,360
Speaker 4: super Bowl. But you're also right that it's bad business.

2379
02:01:32,360 --> 02:01:34,080
Speaker 4: But I think it's Mahomes. We all know that at

2380
02:01:34,080 --> 02:01:34,480
Speaker 4: this point.

2381
02:01:34,560 --> 02:01:35,120
Speaker 1: It just is.

2382
02:01:35,640 --> 02:01:37,760
Speaker 4: Baltimore is a better team though top to bottom in

2383
02:01:37,800 --> 02:01:41,760
Speaker 4: my mind. So and Baltimore has done this all year.

2384
02:01:41,800 --> 02:01:42,560
Speaker 5: All year long.

2385
02:01:42,640 --> 02:01:45,960
Speaker 4: Every time they've played really good teams, they've shown up right.

2386
02:01:46,080 --> 02:01:51,160
Speaker 4: So there isn't a hole in the repertoire for Baltimore

2387
02:01:51,240 --> 02:01:53,160
Speaker 4: for what they've done this year, Like the resume is

2388
02:01:53,640 --> 02:01:56,640
Speaker 4: without question. So I'm all in on Baltimore. I think

2389
02:01:56,640 --> 02:01:59,520
Speaker 4: Baltimore's center to the super Bowl. I actually think the

2390
02:01:59,560 --> 02:02:02,400
Speaker 4: other game gets tougher because my mind tells me it's

2391
02:02:02,400 --> 02:02:06,640
Speaker 4: San Francisco for sure, but then I don't know. Just

2392
02:02:07,200 --> 02:02:09,640
Speaker 4: it's never that easy. It's never one v one. And

2393
02:02:09,680 --> 02:02:11,240
Speaker 4: then I look at it and say, as we talked

2394
02:02:11,280 --> 02:02:15,400
Speaker 4: about earlier, all those weapons for Detroit, Man, it just

2395
02:02:15,520 --> 02:02:18,760
Speaker 4: this feels like the one of those games where a

2396
02:02:18,800 --> 02:02:22,320
Speaker 4: stupid aggressive play call eight it changes a game from

2397
02:02:22,360 --> 02:02:26,160
Speaker 4: being anybody's game to not anybody's game. Like, yes, I

2398
02:02:26,280 --> 02:02:29,600
Speaker 4: just like, I get Dan Campbell's identity and look, it works,

2399
02:02:29,600 --> 02:02:30,720
Speaker 4: so who am I to question it?

2400
02:02:30,760 --> 02:02:31,760
Speaker 5: But I don't know.

2401
02:02:31,800 --> 02:02:33,560
Speaker 4: This feels like one of those they went from fourth

2402
02:02:33,640 --> 02:02:35,160
Speaker 4: and two in their own end and all of a

2403
02:02:35,160 --> 02:02:37,600
Speaker 4: sudden they were down by fourteen and he ain't coming.

2404
02:02:37,440 --> 02:02:38,080
Speaker 5: Back from that again.

2405
02:02:38,800 --> 02:02:42,560
Speaker 3: You're still the same way, man, I think the same thing.

2406
02:02:42,600 --> 02:02:47,880
Speaker 2: I'm like, this is where Dan and I love his mentality, right,

2407
02:02:47,920 --> 02:02:51,240
Speaker 2: I completely I love it. I love his mentality, but

2408
02:02:51,280 --> 02:02:55,600
Speaker 2: he's got to be careful on this spot. Like I'm

2409
02:02:55,680 --> 02:03:01,600
Speaker 2: all for keeping your identity and everything else, but you don't,

2410
02:03:01,800 --> 02:03:06,000
Speaker 2: please don't do anything foolish like too reckless?

2411
02:03:06,480 --> 02:03:07,920
Speaker 5: Right, And where's the like?

2412
02:03:07,960 --> 02:03:10,840
Speaker 4: Because the interesting thing is that recklessness is what got

2413
02:03:10,880 --> 02:03:14,640
Speaker 4: you there? Right, So where's the line on like, you know,

2414
02:03:15,160 --> 02:03:16,920
Speaker 4: they're damned if they do, and damned if they don't.

2415
02:03:17,200 --> 02:03:18,560
Speaker 5: If Dan Campbell comes in.

2416
02:03:18,480 --> 02:03:20,560
Speaker 4: And suddenly doesn't go for it, then we're gonna say, oh,

2417
02:03:20,600 --> 02:03:23,360
Speaker 4: he clammed up in the biggest opportunities. But then at

2418
02:03:23,400 --> 02:03:25,280
Speaker 4: the same time, when you're taking all the forty nine

2419
02:03:25,360 --> 02:03:28,839
Speaker 4: ers who can score at will from so many different places,

2420
02:03:29,360 --> 02:03:32,600
Speaker 4: you can't dig yourself into a hole. Like I think

2421
02:03:32,640 --> 02:03:35,480
Speaker 4: aggressiveness is going to be really interesting in play cauling

2422
02:03:35,560 --> 02:03:40,040
Speaker 4: aggressive is in it's interesting in the approach, and down

2423
02:03:40,080 --> 02:03:43,000
Speaker 4: in distance like fourth downs become very interesting in this

2424
02:03:43,160 --> 02:03:45,840
Speaker 4: like which team trust their offense to be.

2425
02:03:45,800 --> 02:03:48,040
Speaker 5: Able to handle those situations.

2426
02:03:48,080 --> 02:03:51,400
Speaker 4: I think the NFC Championship game is the tougher one

2427
02:03:51,400 --> 02:03:52,280
Speaker 4: to predict in my mind.

2428
02:03:55,520 --> 02:04:00,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess, yes.

2429
02:04:00,640 --> 02:04:04,360
Speaker 2: I don't know, like I think about it as much

2430
02:04:04,360 --> 02:04:07,120
Speaker 2: as I and and listen, I do think like when

2431
02:04:07,160 --> 02:04:11,200
Speaker 2: it comes to Baltimore, like they're you know, they're really

2432
02:04:11,240 --> 02:04:16,600
Speaker 2: good and I'm with you on that something about like

2433
02:04:16,720 --> 02:04:21,120
Speaker 2: that Chiefs thing man that I just go just be careful,

2434
02:04:22,240 --> 02:04:24,880
Speaker 2: right like Andy and my.

2435
02:04:24,960 --> 02:04:28,960
Speaker 3: Homes and you know they're.

2436
02:04:30,240 --> 02:04:32,960
Speaker 2: Because I agree with you onless they're a four point favorite,

2437
02:04:33,040 --> 02:04:35,640
Speaker 2: right and that and that's healthy. I mean that means

2438
02:04:35,680 --> 02:04:40,280
Speaker 2: you're a favorite on a neutral site, and I love

2439
02:04:40,320 --> 02:04:44,120
Speaker 2: the matchups. I guess I've seen them do it, and

2440
02:04:45,360 --> 02:04:48,360
Speaker 2: I've seen you know, Spags have his way, and I've

2441
02:04:48,400 --> 02:04:49,880
Speaker 2: seen Andy have his way.

2442
02:04:50,000 --> 02:04:52,080
Speaker 3: And we went over Mahomes.

2443
02:04:52,080 --> 02:04:55,080
Speaker 2: We we we did the whole Mahomes thing earlier in

2444
02:04:55,080 --> 02:04:59,480
Speaker 2: the showcase. You missed it, and it's worth it's it's

2445
02:04:59,520 --> 02:05:02,640
Speaker 2: worth for peating. So let me just call it up.

2446
02:05:02,720 --> 02:05:06,080
Speaker 2: These are this is Patrick Mahomes in the playoffs.

2447
02:05:06,280 --> 02:05:06,720
Speaker 3: Okay.

2448
02:05:07,440 --> 02:05:10,720
Speaker 2: He has played sixteen games in his career in the playoffs,

2449
02:05:11,160 --> 02:05:16,000
Speaker 2: which is akin to a full season. He'st thrown for

2450
02:05:16,200 --> 02:05:20,280
Speaker 2: four thousand, five hundred and sixty one yards. He has

2451
02:05:20,320 --> 02:05:26,000
Speaker 2: thrown thirty eight touchdowns only seven interceptions. He's rushed for

2452
02:05:26,120 --> 02:05:30,280
Speaker 2: five more touchdowns, run for four hundred and thirty five yards.

2453
02:05:30,760 --> 02:05:34,680
Speaker 2: I mean, no ver, no man like, that's ridiculous. It's

2454
02:05:34,760 --> 02:05:39,880
Speaker 2: quarterback rating one to ozh six point seven. Now you

2455
02:05:39,960 --> 02:05:42,280
Speaker 2: want to tell me that all but one of those

2456
02:05:42,320 --> 02:05:44,360
Speaker 2: games are at home, I go, okay.

2457
02:05:44,320 --> 02:05:47,440
Speaker 3: But you're playing the best of the best.

2458
02:05:47,520 --> 02:05:51,280
Speaker 2: It's the playoffs, so the best defense is the best teams.

2459
02:05:51,840 --> 02:05:56,760
Speaker 2: And my man in sixteen games thrown for forty five

2460
02:05:56,840 --> 02:05:59,960
Speaker 2: hundred yards, thirty eight touchdowns, running for another five hundred

2461
02:06:00,400 --> 02:06:01,880
Speaker 2: and another five thoughtsdowns.

2462
02:06:02,120 --> 02:06:03,480
Speaker 3: That's unbelievable, dude.

2463
02:06:04,960 --> 02:06:09,440
Speaker 4: So then what do you do when all of the

2464
02:06:09,480 --> 02:06:13,360
Speaker 4: rest of the analysis points to one team, but that

2465
02:06:13,440 --> 02:06:15,720
Speaker 4: one piece points to the other, and that one piece

2466
02:06:15,800 --> 02:06:18,480
Speaker 4: is the most important piece. This is what makes this

2467
02:06:18,520 --> 02:06:22,160
Speaker 4: whole process so impossible. Is like everything you're saying about

2468
02:06:22,240 --> 02:06:24,640
Speaker 4: Mahomes speaks to why, no matter what the rest of

2469
02:06:24,680 --> 02:06:27,080
Speaker 4: the team looks like, if this version of the Chiefs

2470
02:06:27,440 --> 02:06:30,720
Speaker 4: wins the Super Bowl, my god, Like, it's just this

2471
02:06:30,760 --> 02:06:32,880
Speaker 4: should not be the way, Like, this should not be

2472
02:06:32,960 --> 02:06:35,400
Speaker 4: a super Bowl winning team. And I'm not saying that

2473
02:06:35,440 --> 02:06:38,200
Speaker 4: like they're not good in certain places. I don't want

2474
02:06:38,240 --> 02:06:41,080
Speaker 4: Chiefs fans to come at me and say I'm disrespecting.

2475
02:06:41,440 --> 02:06:45,480
Speaker 4: It's just most of the time, a super Bowl caliber team,

2476
02:06:45,760 --> 02:06:48,800
Speaker 4: especially with the Chiefs, says looked better than this one.

2477
02:06:48,840 --> 02:06:50,960
Speaker 4: Like the number of times we've sat here this year

2478
02:06:50,960 --> 02:06:53,120
Speaker 4: and said this thing is left for dead in the water,

2479
02:06:53,280 --> 02:06:56,440
Speaker 4: and then Mahomes does mahomesy and things, and they just

2480
02:06:56,480 --> 02:06:59,280
Speaker 4: won in Buffalo. So if you just beat Josh Allen

2481
02:06:59,360 --> 02:07:02,200
Speaker 4: in Buffalo, you can beat anybody anywhere. There's no doubt

2482
02:07:02,200 --> 02:07:04,000
Speaker 4: about that. So you know, I'm not going to buy

2483
02:07:04,040 --> 02:07:06,760
Speaker 4: that going to Baltimore is tougher than going to Buffalo

2484
02:07:06,800 --> 02:07:07,960
Speaker 4: and the elements that they.

2485
02:07:07,840 --> 02:07:08,760
Speaker 5: Played in last week.

2486
02:07:09,080 --> 02:07:13,080
Speaker 4: So it becomes the great equalizer and it makes all

2487
02:07:13,120 --> 02:07:16,280
Speaker 4: of this impossible. It's like having the one trump card

2488
02:07:16,280 --> 02:07:19,360
Speaker 4: that nobody can get through because if you look positioned

2489
02:07:19,360 --> 02:07:21,440
Speaker 4: by position or match up by matchup and you think, yeah,

2490
02:07:21,480 --> 02:07:22,760
Speaker 4: this is the Ravens game to win.

2491
02:07:23,480 --> 02:07:25,760
Speaker 5: But Mahomes is going to Mahomes. I don't know how

2492
02:07:25,800 --> 02:07:26,440
Speaker 5: you survived that.

2493
02:07:26,600 --> 02:07:31,040
Speaker 4: And you know, if you were Baltimore, even if you're

2494
02:07:31,040 --> 02:07:33,480
Speaker 4: a Ravens fan, you should feel confident. But how can

2495
02:07:33,520 --> 02:07:36,040
Speaker 4: you feel confident going up against Patrick.

2496
02:07:35,880 --> 02:07:38,080
Speaker 5: Mahomes like that. It's just this is such a.

2497
02:07:38,000 --> 02:07:40,720
Speaker 4: Weird spot to be in where the one yeah, but

2498
02:07:41,000 --> 02:07:42,400
Speaker 4: is one that nobody can defend.

2499
02:07:42,800 --> 02:07:47,240
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, now, and that's where the conundrum lies. There's

2500
02:07:47,240 --> 02:07:48,960
Speaker 2: some Listen, I agree with you. I mean on paper

2501
02:07:49,240 --> 02:07:53,600
Speaker 2: and you look at it and I could strip it.

2502
02:07:53,640 --> 02:07:57,360
Speaker 2: Like one of the things that you know I can

2503
02:07:57,440 --> 02:08:00,440
Speaker 2: look at for in Baltimore's favor is I look get

2504
02:08:00,680 --> 02:08:05,480
Speaker 2: the Chiefs. They go, well, let's think about this. You

2505
02:08:05,720 --> 02:08:10,120
Speaker 2: played two teams. You had Miami that was just decimated

2506
02:08:10,120 --> 02:08:17,280
Speaker 2: by injuries, Buffalo's defense decimated by injuries and no Gabe Davis.

2507
02:08:17,840 --> 02:08:22,480
Speaker 2: So like you caught both teams, you know, really shorthanded,

2508
02:08:22,480 --> 02:08:27,360
Speaker 2: particularly the defensive end. Baltimore's not shorthanded defensively, they had

2509
02:08:27,400 --> 02:08:32,240
Speaker 2: a really difficult, difficult defense and the way they play

2510
02:08:32,280 --> 02:08:36,480
Speaker 2: their matchup zone where they floated a football. This is

2511
02:08:36,560 --> 02:08:42,280
Speaker 2: a different beast. This isn't you know a Dolphins team

2512
02:08:42,360 --> 02:08:45,520
Speaker 2: that just had no teeth or a Bills team that

2513
02:08:45,560 --> 02:08:49,000
Speaker 2: had loaded up on aging pass roshers to try to

2514
02:08:49,040 --> 02:08:53,480
Speaker 2: take advantage of the Chiefs tackle situation. Because like, to me,

2515
02:08:53,640 --> 02:08:58,880
Speaker 2: that's the biggest the biggest mismatch in the game is

2516
02:08:59,080 --> 02:09:03,600
Speaker 2: Kansas City's edges in protection and I think that's what

2517
02:09:03,640 --> 02:09:06,520
Speaker 2: they're most vulnerable, and that's the one thing that could

2518
02:09:06,520 --> 02:09:09,480
Speaker 2: swing the game. Because if you go back and you

2519
02:09:09,560 --> 02:09:14,920
Speaker 2: remember the Super Bowl that Mahomes lost Fitsie and the

2520
02:09:15,000 --> 02:09:18,600
Speaker 2: Chief's offense struggled, it was because of their tackle situation.

2521
02:09:19,280 --> 02:09:22,440
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I mean that offensive line just got embarrassed,

2522
02:09:22,720 --> 02:09:26,160
Speaker 4: embarrassed in that game. And we all know that, particularly

2523
02:09:26,200 --> 02:09:29,760
Speaker 4: Aiden Hutchinson's become such a superstar. He can absolutely get

2524
02:09:29,800 --> 02:09:33,440
Speaker 4: after it. It's and when you mentioned that, it makes

2525
02:09:33,440 --> 02:09:35,919
Speaker 4: me think about the fact that I'm under selling Pachecko

2526
02:09:35,960 --> 02:09:38,320
Speaker 4: in this whole thing because the Chiefs know that, so

2527
02:09:38,360 --> 02:09:40,600
Speaker 4: they're going to have to run the football, and by

2528
02:09:40,600 --> 02:09:43,720
Speaker 4: the way, they should be able to run the football. So, like,

2529
02:09:44,200 --> 02:09:46,680
Speaker 4: this feels like one of those games where Pachecko is

2530
02:09:46,720 --> 02:09:49,400
Speaker 4: good enough that drives extend and then Mahomes makes two

2531
02:09:49,520 --> 02:09:52,120
Speaker 4: or three plays that you just you're sitting there saying,

2532
02:09:52,160 --> 02:09:53,440
Speaker 4: I don't know how it made that play, but he

2533
02:09:53,520 --> 02:09:56,520
Speaker 4: extended the drive, third and twelve, he picked up thirteen somehow,

2534
02:09:56,840 --> 02:09:58,640
Speaker 4: and it just and all of a sudden, before you

2535
02:09:58,680 --> 02:10:00,000
Speaker 4: know it, you're in the fourth quarter of a one

2536
02:10:00,040 --> 02:10:02,920
Speaker 4: score game. And is anybody betting against Patrick Mahomes in

2537
02:10:02,960 --> 02:10:04,360
Speaker 4: the fourth quarter of a one score game?

2538
02:10:04,680 --> 02:10:06,440
Speaker 5: I heard the stat yesterday.

2539
02:10:06,560 --> 02:10:11,000
Speaker 4: In his entire career, In Patrick Mahomes's entire career, there

2540
02:10:11,040 --> 02:10:14,040
Speaker 4: have been four times ever he's lost a game by

2541
02:10:14,080 --> 02:10:17,080
Speaker 4: more than one score. Ever, so then you've got to

2542
02:10:17,200 --> 02:10:19,680
Speaker 4: like come in and say, Okay, in his entire career

2543
02:10:19,960 --> 02:10:22,360
Speaker 4: in the NFL, if he's only lost four times by

2544
02:10:22,400 --> 02:10:24,680
Speaker 4: more than one score, that means this is probably going

2545
02:10:24,760 --> 02:10:26,560
Speaker 4: to be a one score game. Are we betting against

2546
02:10:26,600 --> 02:10:30,160
Speaker 4: Mahomes in a one score game in the AFC Championship game?

2547
02:10:30,160 --> 02:10:32,000
Speaker 4: Now I'm talking myself out of it because and that's

2548
02:10:32,000 --> 02:10:33,480
Speaker 4: what I'm doing. I'm talking myself out of it.

2549
02:10:33,520 --> 02:10:34,480
Speaker 5: I'm right back to the chase.

2550
02:10:34,560 --> 02:10:37,000
Speaker 2: I know why, Well, I'll talk you back into it,

2551
02:10:37,040 --> 02:10:40,440
Speaker 2: which is give me the weekness on Baltimore, I mean

2552
02:10:40,480 --> 02:10:44,280
Speaker 2: because I look at them offensively, and now they're gonna

2553
02:10:44,280 --> 02:10:46,400
Speaker 2: get Andrews back there.

2554
02:10:47,120 --> 02:10:47,840
Speaker 3: They went through a.

2555
02:10:47,880 --> 02:10:51,240
Speaker 2: Legion of running backs, like I remember when they lost

2556
02:10:52,120 --> 02:10:56,800
Speaker 2: you know, forget Dobbins, JK. They lost Keaton Mitchell. And

2557
02:10:56,880 --> 02:10:59,640
Speaker 2: I thought Keaton Mitchell, who had been a great change

2558
02:10:59,640 --> 02:11:03,320
Speaker 2: of base back for them as a weapon, it was

2559
02:11:03,320 --> 02:11:07,920
Speaker 2: going to hurt. But Gus and Justice Hill I've been terrific.

2560
02:11:08,920 --> 02:11:11,879
Speaker 2: I love bringing in Dalvin Cook, who's got fresh legs.

2561
02:11:12,680 --> 02:11:15,080
Speaker 2: If you need to churn it up, he still could play.

2562
02:11:16,000 --> 02:11:21,400
Speaker 2: So the receivers, I mean, Zay Hill has just blossomed.

2563
02:11:22,480 --> 02:11:27,320
Speaker 2: He's a stud. You got Beckham, you got you know,

2564
02:11:27,400 --> 02:11:31,000
Speaker 2: a veteranly you know, like Agalar. I can't believe I'm

2565
02:11:31,000 --> 02:11:33,800
Speaker 2: saying that, but you know, listen and then you got

2566
02:11:33,800 --> 02:11:37,440
Speaker 2: the ray of tight ends and then the magic of Lamar.

2567
02:11:38,400 --> 02:11:39,440
Speaker 3: That's a great offense.

2568
02:11:42,000 --> 02:11:46,880
Speaker 4: I mean, there is some element of all of this

2569
02:11:47,080 --> 02:11:49,480
Speaker 4: that speaks to why the Ravens are where they are

2570
02:11:49,520 --> 02:11:54,440
Speaker 4: this year, and why the Ravens have been you know,

2571
02:11:54,560 --> 02:11:56,800
Speaker 4: sort of the fact that we're having this conversation speaks

2572
02:11:56,800 --> 02:11:59,200
Speaker 4: to how invisible that that greatness has been much of

2573
02:11:59,200 --> 02:12:03,560
Speaker 4: the year, truly, Like, it's just it is interesting that

2574
02:12:03,840 --> 02:12:05,880
Speaker 4: they have not gotten to me the same reverence that

2575
02:12:05,960 --> 02:12:09,760
Speaker 4: comes with most first overall, like number one overall seed,

2576
02:12:09,800 --> 02:12:12,200
Speaker 4: they get to buy, they come back, it's ten ten

2577
02:12:12,280 --> 02:12:14,320
Speaker 4: and a half, and all of a sudden, the second

2578
02:12:14,320 --> 02:12:17,160
Speaker 4: half is explosive, right, and you have these moments where

2579
02:12:17,200 --> 02:12:19,520
Speaker 4: the Ravens have answered every question with who they've played

2580
02:12:19,560 --> 02:12:21,240
Speaker 4: and how they've played them this year. They don't have

2581
02:12:21,280 --> 02:12:25,560
Speaker 4: any holes Like again now I'm talking about Aga into Baltimore.

2582
02:12:25,600 --> 02:12:28,400
Speaker 4: They don't have any holes playing the way Lamar's playing.

2583
02:12:28,440 --> 02:12:28,520
Speaker 5: Like.

2584
02:12:29,280 --> 02:12:34,480
Speaker 2: There's a great organization too. That organization is a great organization.

2585
02:12:36,080 --> 02:12:40,840
Speaker 4: I mean here every year, right, It's just they're consistently good.

2586
02:12:40,960 --> 02:12:44,760
Speaker 4: They're consistently both of these organizations haven't figured out like that.

2587
02:12:44,920 --> 02:12:46,280
Speaker 5: There's also that moment.

2588
02:12:46,040 --> 02:12:48,000
Speaker 4: Of every team that sucks right now could be looking

2589
02:12:48,000 --> 02:12:49,760
Speaker 4: at both of these organizations and saying, I.

2590
02:12:49,720 --> 02:12:51,000
Speaker 5: Don't need to steal the people.

2591
02:12:51,320 --> 02:12:54,000
Speaker 4: That's what the mistake everybody makes, everybody right now hiring

2592
02:12:54,240 --> 02:12:56,120
Speaker 4: is trying to hire the people from these I don't

2593
02:12:56,160 --> 02:12:58,240
Speaker 4: need the people. I need the structure. I need to

2594
02:12:58,280 --> 02:13:01,080
Speaker 4: figure out how they've built what they built. Need the blueprint, right, Like,

2595
02:13:01,120 --> 02:13:03,600
Speaker 4: that's by far the easiest way to do that, like

2596
02:13:03,720 --> 02:13:05,839
Speaker 4: is to go the toughest. It takes the most patience,

2597
02:13:05,880 --> 02:13:08,480
Speaker 4: but you know, you go out and you get to

2598
02:13:08,520 --> 02:13:10,240
Speaker 4: get the blueprint and see where it goes from there.

2599
02:13:10,280 --> 02:13:10,480
Speaker 3: Yeah.

2600
02:13:11,040 --> 02:13:15,720
Speaker 2: I had Joe Flacco on uh the other day, Baldy

2601
02:13:15,720 --> 02:13:17,800
Speaker 2: and I were talking to Joe Flaco on our NFL

2602
02:13:18,480 --> 02:13:24,160
Speaker 2: All NFL podcasts that we do daily, and Flacco was

2603
02:13:24,200 --> 02:13:28,200
Speaker 2: talking about his time in Baltimore and he was like, dude,

2604
02:13:28,680 --> 02:13:32,880
Speaker 2: like that organization is just so buttoned up top the

2605
02:13:32,880 --> 02:13:36,920
Speaker 2: bottom of the great Owner and they're just you know,

2606
02:13:37,280 --> 02:13:41,720
Speaker 2: for years was Ozzie the whole thing, Harball. They're just

2607
02:13:42,800 --> 02:13:46,200
Speaker 2: like really professional and they draft well.

2608
02:13:46,760 --> 02:13:49,040
Speaker 3: And they just know how to build it.

2609
02:13:49,120 --> 02:13:53,920
Speaker 2: Man, And I just get I'm impressed by that and

2610
02:13:53,960 --> 02:13:56,280
Speaker 2: you're right, like you know, and he's done the same

2611
02:13:56,280 --> 02:14:00,680
Speaker 2: thing in Kansas City. He made Philadelphia contender, and he

2612
02:14:00,760 --> 02:14:03,560
Speaker 2: goes to Kansas City and rebuilds that whole thing. And

2613
02:14:04,320 --> 02:14:06,520
Speaker 2: that's why this is a great AFC Championship game.

2614
02:14:08,240 --> 02:14:12,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, and just a reminder, it's two great coaches and

2615
02:14:12,640 --> 02:14:15,280
Speaker 4: two great quarterbacks that are both young enough to be

2616
02:14:15,320 --> 02:14:18,000
Speaker 4: playing for another ten years if they want to, right, Like,

2617
02:14:18,760 --> 02:14:21,680
Speaker 4: these are two these are two franchises that have positioned

2618
02:14:21,680 --> 02:14:23,720
Speaker 4: themselves to be where they are today, where they are

2619
02:14:23,760 --> 02:14:26,560
Speaker 4: moving forward, Like this is a really cool moment. I mean,

2620
02:14:26,880 --> 02:14:29,360
Speaker 4: just as an NFL junkie, it's a cool moment to see,

2621
02:14:29,720 --> 02:14:31,959
Speaker 4: Like we spend so much of our time focused on dysfunction,

2622
02:14:33,040 --> 02:14:36,080
Speaker 4: We've got living, breathing examples of function happening in these

2623
02:14:36,160 --> 02:14:38,240
Speaker 4: games in a way that you look at it's like, man,

2624
02:14:38,240 --> 02:14:40,080
Speaker 4: this is this is football at its best. This is

2625
02:14:40,680 --> 02:14:43,360
Speaker 4: There is not a single team left in this final

2626
02:14:43,360 --> 02:14:45,280
Speaker 4: four that I'm looking at saying yeah, but this is

2627
02:14:45,360 --> 02:14:48,080
Speaker 4: like Butler in the NCAA Tournament the one year that's

2628
02:14:48,080 --> 02:14:48,880
Speaker 4: like magical run.

2629
02:14:48,960 --> 02:14:51,400
Speaker 5: But where's it gonna go? Right, Like this is these

2630
02:14:51,400 --> 02:14:51,960
Speaker 5: are four.

2631
02:14:51,800 --> 02:14:55,000
Speaker 4: Deserving teams for deserving franchises, four coaches that have gotten

2632
02:14:55,000 --> 02:14:57,360
Speaker 4: that figured out. Four you know, all the way across

2633
02:14:57,360 --> 02:15:00,000
Speaker 4: the board, Like this is just it's gotta be good.

2634
02:15:00,440 --> 02:15:02,080
Speaker 3: It's gonna be good. It's gonna be good.

2635
02:15:02,120 --> 02:15:06,680
Speaker 2: And then the NFC man again like both offenses, here's

2636
02:15:06,720 --> 02:15:08,080
Speaker 2: my question in the NFC.

2637
02:15:09,160 --> 02:15:11,720
Speaker 3: Can Detroit stop San Francisco?

2638
02:15:13,680 --> 02:15:15,120
Speaker 5: No?

2639
02:15:15,120 --> 02:15:17,720
Speaker 4: No, But can San Francisco stop Detroit? I don't like

2640
02:15:17,760 --> 02:15:20,400
Speaker 4: this truly feels like a game to me, like hammer

2641
02:15:20,440 --> 02:15:22,680
Speaker 4: the Over. It feels like a hammer of the over

2642
02:15:22,720 --> 02:15:25,720
Speaker 4: game to me, doesn't it? Like both these quarterbacks should

2643
02:15:25,760 --> 02:15:29,360
Speaker 4: be able to find some opportunities. Absolutely, These wide receivers

2644
02:15:29,400 --> 02:15:31,640
Speaker 4: on both sides, tight ends should be able to find

2645
02:15:31,880 --> 02:15:35,520
Speaker 4: plenty like this feels like hammering the points over, hammering

2646
02:15:35,600 --> 02:15:37,760
Speaker 4: yardage overs like this just feels like we'll ask a

2647
02:15:37,760 --> 02:15:39,920
Speaker 4: big brain about this. But like, to me, this feels

2648
02:15:39,920 --> 02:15:42,080
Speaker 4: like all the numbers that I can get to give

2649
02:15:42,120 --> 02:15:43,160
Speaker 4: me yards I want.

2650
02:15:43,240 --> 02:15:44,959
Speaker 5: Because I think these.

2651
02:15:44,760 --> 02:15:48,200
Speaker 4: Two teams, as weird as it sounds to say the

2652
02:15:48,240 --> 02:15:51,360
Speaker 4: forty nine ers in the Lions, especially offensively, I don't

2653
02:15:51,360 --> 02:15:54,720
Speaker 4: think they're that different. I really don't like their ability

2654
02:15:54,760 --> 02:15:56,960
Speaker 4: to get explosive chunk plays from anywhere.

2655
02:15:57,120 --> 02:15:58,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, is not that different.

2656
02:15:58,280 --> 02:16:00,760
Speaker 4: The way that they use the way that the Lions

2657
02:16:01,360 --> 02:16:03,240
Speaker 4: used two guys at they're running back to be there.

2658
02:16:03,320 --> 02:16:06,800
Speaker 4: McCaffrey still like the net total on it is very

2659
02:16:06,800 --> 02:16:09,240
Speaker 4: comparable like that, the approach is very comparable.

2660
02:16:09,280 --> 02:16:15,000
Speaker 2: Like I think, yeah, you know, like I think they're

2661
02:16:15,040 --> 02:16:18,240
Speaker 2: very similar outside you listen, I mean think about it, right,

2662
02:16:18,360 --> 02:16:22,760
Speaker 2: Saint Brown is every bit of CD Lamb. And then

2663
02:16:22,800 --> 02:16:26,800
Speaker 2: you got two unique receivers in Deebo and Ayyuk and

2664
02:16:27,640 --> 02:16:30,440
Speaker 2: Jennings will do well. And then you've got Josh Randalls

2665
02:16:30,440 --> 02:16:34,000
Speaker 2: and Jamison Williams. I mean, they're they're they're both really explosive.

2666
02:16:34,040 --> 02:16:36,000
Speaker 2: I think golf and party you're kind of asked to

2667
02:16:36,040 --> 02:16:37,519
Speaker 2: do very similar things.

2668
02:16:37,959 --> 02:16:38,199
Speaker 3: Yep.

2669
02:16:38,480 --> 02:16:40,920
Speaker 4: I think the biggest difference here that I keep leaning

2670
02:16:40,920 --> 02:16:44,080
Speaker 4: to is that golf is golf has seen some you

2671
02:16:44,120 --> 02:16:46,440
Speaker 4: know what I mean, Like golf's been through. It ain't

2672
02:16:46,440 --> 02:16:49,640
Speaker 4: nothing gonna phase golf at this point. Like the fact

2673
02:16:49,680 --> 02:16:52,760
Speaker 4: that he's become such a beloved hero in Detroit is

2674
02:16:52,800 --> 02:16:55,600
Speaker 4: such a like great storyline to all of this. But

2675
02:16:56,200 --> 02:16:58,360
Speaker 4: you know, for somebody that just is going to be

2676
02:16:58,440 --> 02:17:01,840
Speaker 4: very capable of managing the moment, I genuinely believe that

2677
02:17:01,879 --> 02:17:05,040
Speaker 4: the emotion of an NFC Championship game for Jared Goff

2678
02:17:05,120 --> 02:17:06,920
Speaker 4: is just it's just today a day.

2679
02:17:07,040 --> 02:17:08,640
Speaker 3: Worry about Detroit out of the dome.

2680
02:17:09,600 --> 02:17:14,640
Speaker 4: No, I think there's a just a I don't know,

2681
02:17:14,720 --> 02:17:17,640
Speaker 4: a joy that they've played with through this process that

2682
02:17:17,680 --> 02:17:20,120
Speaker 4: I think they carry with them. It's just coming in.

2683
02:17:20,240 --> 02:17:23,879
Speaker 4: They they understand there's no pressure on them. They understand

2684
02:17:23,879 --> 02:17:26,640
Speaker 4: what a level of underdog they are. I feel like

2685
02:17:26,680 --> 02:17:29,720
Speaker 4: that's a pretty pretty easy They are also not going

2686
02:17:29,760 --> 02:17:32,360
Speaker 4: to know. Again, I don't want forty nine Ers fans

2687
02:17:32,360 --> 02:17:34,400
Speaker 4: to get mad here, but I've been to that stadium

2688
02:17:34,480 --> 02:17:39,000
Speaker 4: multiple times. They're not going to this thunderous home field advantage.

2689
02:17:39,000 --> 02:17:42,280
Speaker 4: That is just I feel the floor rocking, like I think,

2690
02:17:42,360 --> 02:17:43,600
Speaker 4: I think Detroit's gonna be fine.

2691
02:17:44,800 --> 02:17:48,840
Speaker 2: All right, Wow, we'll see what the big brain things

2705
02:18:56,520 --> 02:18:59,840
Speaker 2: Our buddy Brad Feinberg, our betting analyst who is h

2706
02:19:00,800 --> 02:19:06,600
Speaker 2: had a wonderful season. We're down the three games, Bradley sad,

2707
02:19:06,760 --> 02:19:09,480
Speaker 2: We're only down the three games, but two great games

2708
02:19:09,560 --> 02:19:11,320
Speaker 2: we got in store for us.

2709
02:19:12,320 --> 02:19:14,920
Speaker 11: Yeah, I think, no question about it. You know, look,

2710
02:19:15,280 --> 02:19:19,240
Speaker 11: it's I think this is fair. These are probably I

2711
02:19:19,240 --> 02:19:23,080
Speaker 11: think these teams proved they're probably the arguably the four

2712
02:19:23,120 --> 02:19:28,400
Speaker 11: best teams. So I will say this. Detroit kind of

2713
02:19:28,400 --> 02:19:30,560
Speaker 11: got a little fortunate. I think in both their games,

2714
02:19:30,600 --> 02:19:33,760
Speaker 11: at least from the stat perspective, they kind of were

2715
02:19:33,760 --> 02:19:36,360
Speaker 11: actually outplayed in both games, but they they were able

2716
02:19:36,400 --> 02:19:38,320
Speaker 11: to get the win. And we'll talk about that game

2717
02:19:38,360 --> 02:19:40,320
Speaker 11: and what I think their success level will be. But

2718
02:19:41,160 --> 02:19:44,600
Speaker 11: happy for that city. You saw like just the pure

2719
02:19:44,959 --> 02:19:48,480
Speaker 11: jubilants and emotion FIRS city that hasn't had any football

2720
02:19:48,520 --> 02:19:52,880
Speaker 11: success really ever. So it was nice to see.

2721
02:19:54,000 --> 02:19:56,000
Speaker 4: I mean, you just mentioned that game. Don't tease me.

2722
02:19:56,120 --> 02:19:58,560
Speaker 4: Let's get straight to it. So what do you think?

2723
02:19:58,600 --> 02:20:00,560
Speaker 4: We've been talking about these games all morning. What do

2724
02:20:00,600 --> 02:20:03,080
Speaker 4: you make of the Lions versus the forty nine ers?

2725
02:20:03,959 --> 02:20:07,680
Speaker 11: You know, it's funny. This line has been interesting. Open

2726
02:20:07,879 --> 02:20:11,480
Speaker 11: six and a half, crept up to seven and a half.

2727
02:20:11,840 --> 02:20:15,400
Speaker 11: Now I see it's down to seven. Look, I bet,

2728
02:20:15,480 --> 02:20:17,640
Speaker 11: I bet San Francisco. I gave out to my clients

2729
02:20:17,680 --> 02:20:20,400
Speaker 11: San Francisco and minus six and a half. I still

2730
02:20:20,480 --> 02:20:24,240
Speaker 11: like the minus seven. Look, everything in this game tells

2731
02:20:24,280 --> 02:20:30,200
Speaker 11: me every fiber I have in my body that this

2732
02:20:30,360 --> 02:20:36,520
Speaker 11: is going to be a Samisco route. I understand that

2733
02:20:37,400 --> 02:20:40,199
Speaker 11: sim got away with one last week, and they actually

2734
02:20:40,240 --> 02:20:42,360
Speaker 11: got in my opinion, guys, I don't know if you

2735
02:20:42,400 --> 02:20:44,200
Speaker 11: agree with me. I think they got severely. I played

2736
02:20:44,240 --> 02:20:47,119
Speaker 11: last week by Green Bay. Green Base did everything except

2737
02:20:47,160 --> 02:20:50,720
Speaker 11: win that game, but they have played them. Love was

2738
02:20:50,760 --> 02:20:54,439
Speaker 11: really good until the end.

2739
02:20:54,560 --> 02:20:56,679
Speaker 3: Packers are going to be really good.

2740
02:20:57,000 --> 02:20:59,440
Speaker 11: Yeah, the Packers are a team that it's certainly on

2741
02:20:59,480 --> 02:21:02,920
Speaker 11: the rise. That division. You think about it, that division,

2742
02:21:04,160 --> 02:21:06,959
Speaker 11: even the Bears, Look, if they draft a good quarterback,

2743
02:21:07,360 --> 02:21:09,680
Speaker 11: can or if they whatever they do with the field situation,

2744
02:21:10,160 --> 02:21:13,160
Speaker 11: they're going to be improving as well. Yeah, and Detroit

2745
02:21:13,240 --> 02:21:16,039
Speaker 11: is going to be good for years with Troy, so.

2746
02:21:16,040 --> 02:21:17,480
Speaker 3: He's got some good young players too.

2747
02:21:17,560 --> 02:21:18,440
Speaker 5: So like their they do.

2748
02:21:18,560 --> 02:21:20,760
Speaker 11: They have great receivers, They have great receivers, and see

2749
02:21:20,760 --> 02:21:22,920
Speaker 11: what they do with the quarterback situation. But yeah, that division,

2750
02:21:23,440 --> 02:21:26,160
Speaker 11: I think it's going to become arguably the toughest division

2751
02:21:26,560 --> 02:21:29,480
Speaker 11: the next couple of years in the NFL terms. Probably

2752
02:21:29,600 --> 02:21:34,920
Speaker 11: good young teams. But I just really believe this is

2753
02:21:34,959 --> 02:21:36,600
Speaker 11: going to be And now again the key will be

2754
02:21:36,640 --> 02:21:41,000
Speaker 11: here again the weather. If we saw Party struggle badly,

2755
02:21:41,320 --> 02:21:45,280
Speaker 11: and I mean, Anthony, one of my favorite things in

2756
02:21:45,320 --> 02:21:48,480
Speaker 11: life is, how could tomorrow's newspaper have red just by

2757
02:21:48,600 --> 02:21:53,120
Speaker 11: quick little things different? If you watched that game last week, guys,

2758
02:21:53,560 --> 02:21:57,920
Speaker 11: Party had I think what four dropped interceptions and he

2759
02:21:58,000 --> 02:22:01,119
Speaker 11: got away with it because they were all dropped, one

2760
02:22:01,160 --> 02:22:04,640
Speaker 11: of them being an easy picks. There Again, I cannot strep.

2761
02:22:05,040 --> 02:22:07,080
Speaker 11: I really felt that green Bay should have not only

2762
02:22:07,120 --> 02:22:10,240
Speaker 11: won that game, but probably won that game by fourteen

2763
02:22:10,280 --> 02:22:15,000
Speaker 11: points conservatively, but they didn't I and I just really

2764
02:22:15,080 --> 02:22:16,920
Speaker 11: think again now again, if the weather's going to be

2765
02:22:16,959 --> 02:22:20,280
Speaker 11: like that again, which I've teams some stuff where could

2766
02:22:20,320 --> 02:22:22,600
Speaker 11: be wighing again, that could hurt for me. But I

2767
02:22:23,480 --> 02:22:27,119
Speaker 11: do not think Detroit's defense will have especially with Deebo

2768
02:22:27,200 --> 02:22:31,080
Speaker 11: Samuel playing guys, will be able to stop this Samprusco's offense.

2769
02:22:31,160 --> 02:22:33,920
Speaker 11: And the key to me watching Simpcisco all year and

2770
02:22:33,959 --> 02:22:36,480
Speaker 11: it's amazing and I've heard people talk about it and

2771
02:22:36,520 --> 02:22:39,480
Speaker 11: I kind of poo poot it, but it just seems

2772
02:22:39,520 --> 02:22:44,280
Speaker 11: to be the case, having watched them against Baltimore and

2773
02:22:44,680 --> 02:22:49,680
Speaker 11: against Green Bay. When they play when they're trailing, they're

2774
02:22:49,760 --> 02:22:52,640
Speaker 11: just not even close to the same team. They are

2775
02:22:52,680 --> 02:22:55,039
Speaker 11: not close to the same team. They are a team

2776
02:22:55,080 --> 02:22:57,640
Speaker 11: that needs to be able to be playing from lead,

2777
02:22:57,800 --> 02:23:01,520
Speaker 11: have their play action available, just play from in front,

2778
02:23:01,560 --> 02:23:04,320
Speaker 11: and when they play from in front, they're unstoppable. I

2779
02:23:04,360 --> 02:23:08,040
Speaker 11: think they're gonna play from in front tomorrow and the

2780
02:23:08,080 --> 02:23:14,680
Speaker 11: Detroit again, I feel like they got really badly up.

2781
02:23:14,879 --> 02:23:16,800
Speaker 11: I think badly, but they got up from a yard

2782
02:23:16,840 --> 02:23:19,560
Speaker 11: for play perspective, they did get badly up. Played both

2783
02:23:19,600 --> 02:23:23,240
Speaker 11: these games I just don't think it's going to be

2784
02:23:23,280 --> 02:23:26,039
Speaker 11: able to work for them tomorrow. I and I I

2785
02:23:26,080 --> 02:23:27,960
Speaker 11: think we're gonna see a and if you want to

2786
02:23:28,000 --> 02:23:31,800
Speaker 11: take an alternate lineh Sam just gonna win by a big,

2787
02:23:31,840 --> 02:23:34,480
Speaker 11: big number. I think we're gonna see I don't think

2788
02:23:34,480 --> 02:23:35,680
Speaker 11: that game is gonna be competitive.

2789
02:23:35,840 --> 02:23:37,160
Speaker 3: I just don't.

2790
02:23:37,320 --> 02:23:40,279
Speaker 11: I think there is going to have a lot of success.

2791
02:23:40,600 --> 02:23:44,320
Speaker 11: And I think Detroit, I think we're gonna see one

2792
02:23:44,320 --> 02:23:46,240
Speaker 11: of those games. So they just the game gets out

2793
02:23:46,240 --> 02:23:49,360
Speaker 11: of hand, and I like them, even though again I

2794
02:23:49,360 --> 02:23:51,560
Speaker 11: thought the line. I thought the line would come in.

2795
02:23:52,080 --> 02:23:54,360
Speaker 11: It's seven seven and a half and that's basically what

2796
02:23:54,400 --> 02:23:56,240
Speaker 11: it is. It's not that I think it's a bad line,

2797
02:23:56,480 --> 02:23:58,360
Speaker 11: but I just like this matchup for Se Francisco, and

2798
02:23:58,360 --> 02:24:01,160
Speaker 11: again I expect them just gonna be playing from the lead,

2799
02:24:01,440 --> 02:24:03,640
Speaker 11: and for Detroit to have any chance in this game,

2800
02:24:04,160 --> 02:24:06,320
Speaker 11: I just think they need to be able to play

2801
02:24:06,320 --> 02:24:08,640
Speaker 11: from the lead, or at least because I don't I

2802
02:24:08,680 --> 02:24:11,560
Speaker 11: think if it becomes a quick Samms school lead, I

2803
02:24:11,800 --> 02:24:14,320
Speaker 11: think we're gonna see Detroit in real trouble, which is

2804
02:24:14,320 --> 02:24:15,279
Speaker 11: what I think is gonna happen.

2805
02:24:16,040 --> 02:24:19,200
Speaker 2: So I just look at the weather. It doesn't look

2806
02:24:19,240 --> 02:24:23,480
Speaker 2: like any rain. Yeah, it looks pretty, it looks pretty dry.

2807
02:24:23,640 --> 02:24:25,000
Speaker 2: It's just like a two percent chance.

2808
02:24:25,800 --> 02:24:28,039
Speaker 11: And I did take guys in that game. I did

2809
02:24:28,080 --> 02:24:30,880
Speaker 11: take George Kittle under four and a half catches twelve

2810
02:24:30,959 --> 02:24:33,160
Speaker 11: and five this year, thirteen and five last year, so

2811
02:24:33,160 --> 02:24:36,360
Speaker 11: we're talking twenty five and ten the last two years.

2812
02:24:36,879 --> 02:24:40,280
Speaker 11: I love Christian McCaffrey's under in rushing. I know it's

2813
02:24:40,280 --> 02:24:40,600
Speaker 11: not fun.

2814
02:24:40,840 --> 02:24:43,040
Speaker 3: Really, I'll tell you why.

2815
02:24:43,520 --> 02:24:45,959
Speaker 11: The average ninety one yards a game this year, okay,

2816
02:24:46,000 --> 02:24:47,560
Speaker 11: and they made this over under eighty eight and a

2817
02:24:47,600 --> 02:24:50,160
Speaker 11: half eighty seven and a half in that area. The

2818
02:24:50,280 --> 02:24:52,360
Speaker 11: lines are number one in the NFL, allowing sixty one

2819
02:24:52,440 --> 02:24:55,600
Speaker 11: rush yards per game the running backs and three point

2820
02:24:55,600 --> 02:24:57,240
Speaker 11: six yards per How I can.

2821
02:24:57,200 --> 02:24:59,120
Speaker 2: See damage out of the back So I think I

2822
02:24:59,160 --> 02:25:03,280
Speaker 2: said that to early earlier, to FITZI that I like

2823
02:25:03,440 --> 02:25:06,720
Speaker 2: McCaffrey out of the backfield to catch the ball, to

2824
02:25:06,720 --> 02:25:07,080
Speaker 2: get him.

2825
02:25:07,160 --> 02:25:10,560
Speaker 11: So again, that's certainly possible, but I think it's gonna

2826
02:25:10,560 --> 02:25:12,440
Speaker 11: be hard to run on this retort team. I don't

2827
02:25:12,440 --> 02:25:14,760
Speaker 11: think any running back is run for over seventy yards

2828
02:25:14,800 --> 02:25:19,320
Speaker 11: against them all season. So they're basically giving McCaffrey his

2829
02:25:19,400 --> 02:25:23,039
Speaker 11: average in the hardest matchup possible, So I don't think

2830
02:25:23,040 --> 02:25:25,039
Speaker 11: he's going to get there in Jameis and Williams. Anthony,

2831
02:25:25,720 --> 02:25:28,200
Speaker 11: I listen, under two and a half catches twenty and

2832
02:25:28,280 --> 02:25:30,879
Speaker 11: two the last two years. I'll take my chances on

2833
02:25:30,959 --> 02:25:33,640
Speaker 11: that that goes under two and a half catches. He

2834
02:25:33,720 --> 02:25:37,040
Speaker 11: catches big balls like he well, deep balls. But the

2835
02:25:37,120 --> 02:25:38,879
Speaker 11: thing he doesn't get the volume, and.

2836
02:25:39,160 --> 02:25:42,920
Speaker 2: I like his under all right, Uh, the big brain

2837
02:25:43,000 --> 02:25:45,760
Speaker 2: with us hanging out, how do people reach you?

2838
02:25:45,879 --> 02:25:48,240
Speaker 3: And then we'll dive into the other game.

2839
02:25:49,080 --> 02:25:53,640
Speaker 11: Yeah, I appreciate that, Anthony. Brad's that's on Twitter. Anthony

2840
02:25:53,720 --> 02:25:57,320
Speaker 11: now up over ninety units in basketball, which is insane. Again,

2841
02:25:57,360 --> 02:25:59,400
Speaker 11: this is just betting one unit per game. You get

2842
02:25:59,760 --> 02:26:04,920
Speaker 11: all I stoff, all my futures everything. Brad DEA's on Twitter.

2843
02:26:04,920 --> 02:26:09,200
Speaker 11: I don't know anyone in the industry who's Again, I

2844
02:26:09,240 --> 02:26:11,840
Speaker 11: just started this service four months ago. I don't know

2845
02:26:11,879 --> 02:26:15,360
Speaker 11: anyone who's had a more successful turn than me. And

2846
02:26:15,400 --> 02:26:17,040
Speaker 11: I'm being honest about that, and I don't like it.

2847
02:26:17,120 --> 02:26:18,320
Speaker 11: Thought I'm trying to my own horn.

2848
02:26:18,400 --> 02:26:22,280
Speaker 2: But no, yeah, you've you've We've known each other, We've

2849
02:26:22,280 --> 02:26:25,280
Speaker 2: been friends for years. So I've I've watched you and

2850
02:26:25,320 --> 02:26:27,240
Speaker 2: you just I mean, you're you've been doing this your

2851
02:26:27,280 --> 02:26:27,720
Speaker 2: whole life.

2852
02:26:27,720 --> 02:26:33,040
Speaker 3: You're amazing at it. Let me ask you this. So Baltimore,

2853
02:26:33,720 --> 02:26:35,720
Speaker 3: the weather's it's going to rain tomorrow.

2854
02:26:35,879 --> 02:26:39,200
Speaker 2: It's gonna be temperate, right, it's gonna be fifty degrees,

2855
02:26:39,240 --> 02:26:40,520
Speaker 2: but it's going to rain tomorrow.

2856
02:26:41,520 --> 02:26:43,920
Speaker 3: This game is a fascinating game.

2857
02:26:43,959 --> 02:26:45,640
Speaker 2: I mean, I I love the X and O of

2858
02:26:45,680 --> 02:26:49,640
Speaker 2: it and just kind of going back and forth between

2859
02:26:49,640 --> 02:26:53,920
Speaker 2: the do teet with the two defenses Spags and McDonald

2860
02:26:54,360 --> 02:26:57,360
Speaker 2: and kind of how they're gonna go against that. That

2861
02:26:57,879 --> 02:27:03,480
Speaker 2: matchup zone versus Spags his pressure is really interesting. And

2862
02:27:03,480 --> 02:27:06,040
Speaker 2: then of course the obvious, which is Mahomes and Lamar.

2863
02:27:06,600 --> 02:27:07,920
Speaker 2: How do you kind of suss it out?

2864
02:27:08,920 --> 02:27:11,200
Speaker 11: Yeah, I got this one wrong, Anthony, which is on

2865
02:27:11,280 --> 02:27:15,640
Speaker 11: the lake in terms of I took the Chief plus three.

2866
02:27:15,400 --> 02:27:15,880
Speaker 3: And a half.

2867
02:27:16,200 --> 02:27:17,520
Speaker 11: And what I mean I got it wrong is the

2868
02:27:17,520 --> 02:27:20,920
Speaker 11: lines up before And I really thought this line would

2869
02:27:20,920 --> 02:27:23,800
Speaker 11: settle in closer to maybe Baltimore Lank three lane fifteen

2870
02:27:23,840 --> 02:27:26,240
Speaker 11: ring one twenty. I didn't think it would ever move

2871
02:27:26,280 --> 02:27:27,680
Speaker 11: the other way. But I think what's happened was the

2872
02:27:27,760 --> 02:27:31,880
Speaker 11: Chief injury report was very substantial, and I think we've

2873
02:27:31,879 --> 02:27:34,920
Speaker 11: gotten a lot of bets on Baltimore based off based

2874
02:27:34,959 --> 02:27:38,199
Speaker 11: off the Chiefs injury report. They're not gonna have Joe Toney,

2875
02:27:38,280 --> 02:27:42,840
Speaker 11: one of the best offensive linemen. Will it gains, Yeah,

2876
02:27:43,000 --> 02:27:45,720
Speaker 11: Willie Gave is the key linebacker, potentially a spy. On

2877
02:27:45,800 --> 02:27:50,720
Speaker 11: Lamar still questionable, and the Checko I think he's gonna play,

2878
02:27:50,800 --> 02:27:53,560
Speaker 11: but is questionable as well. But I think he's gonna play.

2879
02:27:54,360 --> 02:27:56,760
Speaker 11: But listen, you know it's twenty of the Chiefs, Anthony

2880
02:27:56,879 --> 02:28:00,160
Speaker 11: or a team that I've been very, very confident my

2881
02:28:00,200 --> 02:28:02,920
Speaker 11: own head would not do it, would not get there

2882
02:28:02,959 --> 02:28:04,760
Speaker 11: to the Super Bowl. Again. I'm like, they're just not

2883
02:28:04,959 --> 02:28:09,600
Speaker 11: that good. But I just think this line, especially at four,

2884
02:28:11,280 --> 02:28:13,440
Speaker 11: is attacked too high. I think the Ravens will win

2885
02:28:13,480 --> 02:28:15,879
Speaker 11: the game. I expect the Ravens to win the game,

2886
02:28:15,879 --> 02:28:17,360
Speaker 11: but I think the game will be close. I think

2887
02:28:17,400 --> 02:28:21,480
Speaker 11: it'll be close. I think it'll be a battle that

2888
02:28:21,560 --> 02:28:24,240
Speaker 11: comes down to the end. I just do you think

2889
02:28:24,240 --> 02:28:26,720
Speaker 11: the Ravens are personally the better team, and I'd like

2890
02:28:27,080 --> 02:28:30,440
Speaker 11: the fact that their past defense is so good as well,

2891
02:28:30,800 --> 02:28:33,120
Speaker 11: But I just think four points is a little bit

2892
02:28:33,160 --> 02:28:35,040
Speaker 11: too high. I thought this numbers should have been three.

2893
02:28:35,520 --> 02:28:37,480
Speaker 11: So you want to give me a full point off

2894
02:28:37,480 --> 02:28:39,360
Speaker 11: what I make the number with three being king in

2895
02:28:39,400 --> 02:28:42,760
Speaker 11: the NFL, I'm gonna take the Chiefs getting four points,

2896
02:28:42,959 --> 02:28:44,960
Speaker 11: and I think, again, I think that's a very good

2897
02:28:45,040 --> 02:28:47,880
Speaker 11: game chance. This game just comes down to the last possession,

2898
02:28:48,320 --> 02:28:50,480
Speaker 11: kind of like the Bills game we saw last week.

2899
02:28:51,480 --> 02:28:54,119
Speaker 11: But I think the Ravens are a far better team

2900
02:28:54,160 --> 02:28:58,680
Speaker 11: than Buffalo, I really do. The Bills couldn't get a stop.

2901
02:28:59,200 --> 02:29:01,039
Speaker 11: The Ravens will be able to get stops. To me,

2902
02:29:01,120 --> 02:29:03,160
Speaker 11: that's difference in this game, and this is why I

2903
02:29:03,200 --> 02:29:05,680
Speaker 11: do the Ravens school eventually win the game. The Bills

2904
02:29:05,760 --> 02:29:09,959
Speaker 11: could not get one stop. Their defense was absolutely shot

2905
02:29:10,280 --> 02:29:14,320
Speaker 11: and couldn't do anything. This Ravens team can absolutely get stops,

2906
02:29:15,320 --> 02:29:17,640
Speaker 11: and I think that'll be the difference in why I

2907
02:29:17,680 --> 02:29:19,879
Speaker 11: think the Baltimore is going to win a close, close game.

2908
02:29:20,160 --> 02:29:22,120
Speaker 11: By again, I like the Chiefs giving the four here.

2909
02:29:22,959 --> 02:29:25,240
Speaker 4: So one thing that's interesting to me is we've been

2910
02:29:25,240 --> 02:29:27,400
Speaker 4: talking about what do you do when you analyze the game,

2911
02:29:27,920 --> 02:29:30,160
Speaker 4: and the one thing you can't factor in is mahomes right,

2912
02:29:30,200 --> 02:29:33,400
Speaker 4: Because everything you're saying, we all agree with. The Ravens

2913
02:29:33,400 --> 02:29:36,080
Speaker 4: are a better football team. But Mahomes just does Mahomes things.

2914
02:29:36,120 --> 02:29:39,240
Speaker 4: So from a betting standpoint, when you've got one guy

2915
02:29:39,280 --> 02:29:41,920
Speaker 4: that just changes the playing field on all of it,

2916
02:29:42,440 --> 02:29:44,680
Speaker 4: how do you let that, Like your numbers are going

2917
02:29:44,720 --> 02:29:46,480
Speaker 4: to tell you one thing, but Mahomes is going to

2918
02:29:46,480 --> 02:29:47,039
Speaker 4: tell you another.

2919
02:29:47,360 --> 02:29:49,760
Speaker 5: How do you let that impact your strategy?

2920
02:29:49,800 --> 02:29:52,200
Speaker 11: Well? Well, here's the thing though, being fair about though,

2921
02:29:52,240 --> 02:29:54,480
Speaker 11: but Baltimore has a guy like that too. I mean,

2922
02:29:54,560 --> 02:29:57,360
Speaker 11: you know, a different kind of way than Mahomes, but

2923
02:29:57,440 --> 02:30:00,200
Speaker 11: Lamar can just make those pleas with his legs to

2924
02:30:00,240 --> 02:30:03,680
Speaker 11: say the thing. But look, I mean again, I think

2925
02:30:03,720 --> 02:30:05,840
Speaker 11: this line is that I just came in too high. Look,

2926
02:30:05,840 --> 02:30:07,879
Speaker 11: and the fact that I have that guy that can

2927
02:30:07,879 --> 02:30:10,439
Speaker 11: get you also that back to a cover right in Mahomes,

2928
02:30:10,520 --> 02:30:13,520
Speaker 11: it's just an added bonus of a huge added bonus.

2929
02:30:13,560 --> 02:30:16,200
Speaker 11: Like if this game is a ten point game with

2930
02:30:16,840 --> 02:30:18,960
Speaker 11: three minutes to go and it's you know, twenty to

2931
02:30:19,000 --> 02:30:23,040
Speaker 11: ten or twenty seven seventeen Baltimore, I feel like, Okay,

2932
02:30:23,080 --> 02:30:25,280
Speaker 11: Mahomes can just do anything at any time and get

2933
02:30:25,280 --> 02:30:28,080
Speaker 11: me that back to a cover, which is obviously a nice,

2934
02:30:28,400 --> 02:30:31,920
Speaker 11: nice luxury sort of speak what they have. But again

2935
02:30:31,959 --> 02:30:33,800
Speaker 11: I think this is going to be out of the

2936
02:30:33,800 --> 02:30:36,000
Speaker 11: two games, guys, the game that's gonna be the more

2937
02:30:36,000 --> 02:30:38,360
Speaker 11: exciting him. There's a prop I like in it. I

2938
02:30:38,959 --> 02:30:41,320
Speaker 11: just this top one seven of his last eight. It's

2939
02:30:41,320 --> 02:30:44,080
Speaker 11: eleven and three at the last fourteen. And I know

2940
02:30:44,160 --> 02:30:45,800
Speaker 11: he's a little banged up, but I'm just gonna take

2941
02:30:45,840 --> 02:30:48,880
Speaker 11: my chances watching the Chiefs, the checko over thirteen and

2942
02:30:48,920 --> 02:30:51,120
Speaker 11: a half rush attempts. I see no reason why he

2943
02:30:51,120 --> 02:30:54,360
Speaker 11: will not get his fourteen rushing attempts. He's become a

2944
02:30:54,520 --> 02:30:57,520
Speaker 11: massive part of this guys, of this team's game plan.

2945
02:30:58,640 --> 02:31:00,760
Speaker 11: Andy doesn't even use anyone else running the ball anymore.

2946
02:31:00,760 --> 02:31:05,200
Speaker 11: It's basically checko exclusively. Maybe Edward Dalaier got one carry,

2947
02:31:05,600 --> 02:31:07,720
Speaker 11: but I like to check over thirteen the f rushing

2948
02:31:07,720 --> 02:31:10,760
Speaker 11: attempts one of my favorite props of the weekend, maybe

2949
02:31:10,800 --> 02:31:11,480
Speaker 11: my favorite one.

2950
02:31:12,120 --> 02:31:15,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I totally see that. And you know what you

2951
02:31:15,000 --> 02:31:17,480
Speaker 2: can rush on You can run on Baltimore.

2952
02:31:17,720 --> 02:31:21,000
Speaker 11: That's that's the way, Anthony, you nailed it. The way

2953
02:31:21,040 --> 02:31:23,880
Speaker 11: to actually beat Baltimore. Third, pass defense has been top

2954
02:31:24,040 --> 02:31:27,280
Speaker 11: three all year. The rush defense has actually not been good,

2955
02:31:27,920 --> 02:31:29,879
Speaker 11: kind of like you know, and and and and but

2956
02:31:30,200 --> 02:31:32,680
Speaker 11: on the on the counter flip. You know, can't see's

2957
02:31:32,720 --> 02:31:34,960
Speaker 11: rush defense has not been good, so that you know

2958
02:31:35,200 --> 02:31:36,879
Speaker 11: that may not be the best open for them. And

2959
02:31:36,959 --> 02:31:39,520
Speaker 11: we saw, and again the only thing that does confirm me.

2960
02:31:39,840 --> 02:31:45,880
Speaker 11: We saw James Cook and Josh Allen did run five, six, four, seven,

2961
02:31:46,080 --> 02:31:49,119
Speaker 11: six eight. All the Chiefs couldn't get a stop either

2962
02:31:49,480 --> 02:31:51,840
Speaker 11: rushing the ball. It was just it was death by

2963
02:31:51,879 --> 02:31:55,199
Speaker 11: a thousand plays, right, I mean, the Bills couldn't. Josh

2964
02:31:55,200 --> 02:31:58,800
Speaker 11: Allen's attempt to completion his average air depth on his

2965
02:31:58,879 --> 02:32:01,680
Speaker 11: complete passes, the see a stat like this was zero

2966
02:32:01,800 --> 02:32:05,000
Speaker 11: point seven. I want you only think about that zero

2967
02:32:05,120 --> 02:32:08,080
Speaker 11: point seven in depth of his completions.

2968
02:32:08,200 --> 02:32:11,160
Speaker 3: So basically everything was at the longest scribbage.

2969
02:32:11,440 --> 02:32:14,000
Speaker 11: Yeah, everything was a lot of screamings, which I it's

2970
02:32:14,040 --> 02:32:16,440
Speaker 11: just amazing. But that shows you that that Buffalo team,

2971
02:32:16,879 --> 02:32:20,520
Speaker 11: in my opinion, was extremely flawed. And Alan just played

2972
02:32:20,520 --> 02:32:23,240
Speaker 11: again I think he's a I mean I thought he.

2973
02:32:24,440 --> 02:32:26,520
Speaker 3: They clearly another receiver, and.

2974
02:32:26,760 --> 02:32:30,440
Speaker 11: Yeah he did drops that path. But Allen played, in

2975
02:32:30,440 --> 02:32:32,800
Speaker 11: my opinion, or an absolute herculean game. I don't think

2976
02:32:32,840 --> 02:32:36,200
Speaker 11: he realized how the deck was stacked against him, in

2977
02:32:36,240 --> 02:32:39,240
Speaker 11: my opinion, because to me, my takeaway in that game.

2978
02:32:39,520 --> 02:32:41,560
Speaker 11: It was almost like Anthony the guy and said, he's

2979
02:32:41,600 --> 02:32:45,280
Speaker 11: like watching a game like where in baseball a team

2980
02:32:45,320 --> 02:32:48,000
Speaker 11: has to have, like you know, a rally of like

2981
02:32:48,160 --> 02:32:49,720
Speaker 11: seven hits in a row versus the other team. He

2982
02:32:49,800 --> 02:32:52,320
Speaker 11: just had a Graham slam. The Chiefs had to play

2983
02:32:52,400 --> 02:32:55,480
Speaker 11: where they could just their drives lasted in two minutes.

2984
02:32:55,520 --> 02:32:57,680
Speaker 11: The Bills had the last ten minutes because they couldn't

2985
02:32:57,680 --> 02:33:00,160
Speaker 11: get a big play. It was and it's just thought hard.

2986
02:33:00,360 --> 02:33:01,440
Speaker 11: It's a hard way to win that way.

2987
02:33:01,920 --> 02:33:05,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, listen, we got we gotta run. Great stuff as always,

2988
02:33:05,480 --> 02:33:08,480
Speaker 2: big brain. That's a good luck, all right, and then

2989
02:33:08,600 --> 02:33:13,080
Speaker 2: uh you next week about everything else, but awesome, buddy.

3002
02:33:56,160 --> 02:33:59,720
Speaker 2: a case of the hiccups and it's driving.

3003
02:34:01,400 --> 02:34:02,400
Speaker 8: It's been like an hour.

3004
02:34:03,840 --> 02:34:06,320
Speaker 5: So God, that's amazing. I told Shae.

3005
02:34:06,320 --> 02:34:07,840
Speaker 4: He asked me what to do with this, and I

3006
02:34:07,879 --> 02:34:10,280
Speaker 4: told him when I get the hiccups, they last for

3007
02:34:10,320 --> 02:34:13,039
Speaker 4: me for hours, and my friends always just sit there

3008

Speaker 4: and laugh at me.

3009
02:34:13,800 --> 02:34:14,600
Speaker 5: Through the whole process.

3010
02:34:14,600 --> 02:34:17,119
Speaker 4: And the hardest part is everybody has some like, oh,

3011
02:34:17,200 --> 02:34:20,160
Speaker 4: you get rid of hiccups by doing insert method here.

3012
02:34:20,600 --> 02:34:23,800
Speaker 4: None of them have worked for like, none of that

3013
02:34:23,840 --> 02:34:26,200
Speaker 4: stuff ever works for me. So he asked me what

3014
02:34:26,280 --> 02:34:27,840
Speaker 4: the curious and I'm like, I don't know, but Shaye,

Speaker 4: if you figure it out, let me know, because I

3016
02:34:30,400 --> 02:34:32,920
Speaker 4: have the same problem chronically, so I would take I'll

3017
02:34:32,959 --> 02:34:35,640
Speaker 4: take any advice you get out of this learning experience.

3018
02:34:37,160 --> 02:34:39,360
Speaker 3: So you're you're a hiccup man. I didn't know that.

02:35:23,000 --> 02:35:29,000
Speaker 3: Can happen to the c C crack it up. I

02:35:29,320 --> 02:35:29,879
Speaker 3: get here him.

3035
02:35:29,879 --> 02:35:34,920
Speaker 2: He's cracking up all right, So uh kicks. So we're

3036
02:35:34,959 --> 02:35:41,240
Speaker 2: both fault. So we're both your your own Baltimore and

3037
02:35:41,879 --> 02:35:44,560
Speaker 2: saying in San fran man, how about the brain?

3038
02:35:44,720 --> 02:35:47,600
Speaker 3: The brain likes the Niners in a row?

3039
02:35:49,120 --> 02:35:52,040
Speaker 4: Why do I feel like he's man? I feel like right,

3040
02:35:52,959 --> 02:35:55,600
Speaker 4: he's right, you know, because he's always right. That's why

3041
02:35:55,640 --> 02:36:00,400
Speaker 4: we bring him on. Yeah, I'm feeling Baltimore. I'm gonna

3042
02:36:00,400 --> 02:36:06,600
Speaker 4: say Baltimore twenty seven one. And yeah, I think San

3043
02:36:06,640 --> 02:36:09,039
Speaker 4: Francisco is gonna win this game because I want I

3044
02:36:09,080 --> 02:36:10,760
Speaker 4: want the Lions to win so bad. But I think

3045
02:36:10,760 --> 02:36:12,440
Speaker 4: we're gonna get Baltimore San Francisco.

3046
02:36:13,560 --> 02:36:16,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I do too, I and I agree, like I

3047
02:36:17,000 --> 02:36:18,760
Speaker 2: want to see the Allions bad.

3048
02:36:19,280 --> 02:36:22,320
Speaker 3: I don't want to see the Lions. I just don't.

3049
02:36:22,400 --> 02:36:26,959
Speaker 2: I I don't think Detroit can stop them. That's my

3050
02:36:27,080 --> 02:36:31,480
Speaker 2: biggest fear. I don't know how you stop them. I

3051
02:36:31,560 --> 02:36:34,880
Speaker 2: don't if you'd on one defense though, But if you're

3052
02:36:34,879 --> 02:36:36,800
Speaker 2: gonna been on one defense, you've been on San Francisco.

3053
02:36:37,160 --> 02:36:41,240
Speaker 2: Like San Francisco they still have Fred Warner, you still have,

3054
02:36:41,520 --> 02:36:46,039
Speaker 2: you know, a good front like that's still a really

3055
02:36:46,080 --> 02:36:48,840
Speaker 2: good team. Like you know, I think they have some

3056
02:36:48,920 --> 02:36:52,120
Speaker 2: matrees in the secondary, but they're front seven's legit.

3057
02:36:53,800 --> 02:36:56,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're right, one hundred percent. You were absolutely right

3058
02:36:56,360 --> 02:36:59,200
Speaker 4: about that. And Fred Warner, by the way, is just

3059
02:36:59,560 --> 02:37:02,240
Speaker 4: what a in a position that people don't get paid

3060
02:37:02,240 --> 02:37:04,520
Speaker 4: that often, what a difference maker, you know what I mean?

3061
02:37:04,560 --> 02:37:07,280
Speaker 2: Like, I'm glad you said that because I went, I

3062
02:37:07,320 --> 02:37:08,840
Speaker 2: meant to bring it. So it's all my it's in

3063
02:37:08,879 --> 02:37:14,039
Speaker 2: my notebook. But to bring up these teams that do

3064
02:37:14,160 --> 02:37:18,879
Speaker 2: not believe in linebackers and safeties and full backs and

3065
02:37:18,920 --> 02:37:22,960
Speaker 2: a running game for that matter, like the old school

3066
02:37:23,879 --> 02:37:31,440
Speaker 2: is back and it's proven in these teams Baltimore. Look

3067
02:37:31,480 --> 02:37:37,880
Speaker 2: at line bro Kwan uh Patrick, Queen, Kyle Hamilton, right,

3068
02:37:38,520 --> 02:37:43,840
Speaker 2: Ricard is their full back? Right that they use? The Niners.

3069
02:37:44,160 --> 02:37:46,959
Speaker 2: We just got done talking about Fred Warner. You got

3070
02:37:47,040 --> 02:37:50,240
Speaker 2: you know, that's a great linebacking corps. You got juice

3071
02:37:50,400 --> 02:37:54,840
Speaker 2: at full back. I mean, they're they're old school, the

3072
02:37:54,879 --> 02:37:56,160
Speaker 2: old school type teams.

3073
02:37:56,879 --> 02:37:58,200
Speaker 5: Well, and look at last weekend.

3074
02:37:58,200 --> 02:38:00,800
Speaker 4: I mean, if the Bills would have it's not their

3075
02:38:00,840 --> 02:38:05,040
Speaker 4: fault that they were absolutely razor thin at the linebacking position,

3076
02:38:05,120 --> 02:38:08,520
Speaker 4: but my god, like that was a big key to

3077
02:38:08,560 --> 02:38:09,600
Speaker 4: why they lost the games.

3078
02:38:09,640 --> 02:38:11,600
Speaker 5: They just didn't have enough depth at that position.

3079
02:38:11,680 --> 02:38:15,440
Speaker 4: It's it's yeah, it's funny because I think in modern football,

3080
02:38:15,480 --> 02:38:17,320
Speaker 4: people want to make so much of it about spreading

3081
02:38:17,320 --> 02:38:18,840
Speaker 4: it out and throwing the ball, and we just talked

3082
02:38:18,879 --> 02:38:21,040
Speaker 4: about the Bills and the line of scrimmage and throwing

3083
02:38:21,040 --> 02:38:23,280
Speaker 4: the ball right at the line. There's a part of

3084
02:38:23,280 --> 02:38:25,640
Speaker 4: that that's a necessary part of every offense. But you

3085
02:38:25,760 --> 02:38:29,080
Speaker 4: still have to in the current climate, you've got to

3086
02:38:29,080 --> 02:38:31,200
Speaker 4: be able to run the football when you need to

3087
02:38:31,240 --> 02:38:33,400
Speaker 4: run it, and you need to be able to stop

3088
02:38:33,440 --> 02:38:36,200
Speaker 4: the other team from doing the same. Like that's and

3089
02:38:36,240 --> 02:38:38,119
Speaker 4: we're going to see that. We're going to see that

3090
02:38:38,520 --> 02:38:41,760
Speaker 4: today or tomorrow. I said, say when when late in

3091
02:38:41,800 --> 02:38:43,400
Speaker 4: the game, when the Ravens have the ball and all

3092
02:38:43,440 --> 02:38:45,640
Speaker 4: the conversations is going to be ooh, are the Chiefs

3093
02:38:45,640 --> 02:38:46,080
Speaker 4: even going to.

3094
02:38:46,080 --> 02:38:47,720
Speaker 5: Get the ball back from a home? You've got to

3095
02:38:47,720 --> 02:38:50,439
Speaker 5: be able to run the ball at some league.

3096
02:38:50,240 --> 02:38:54,279
Speaker 2: Legatory shot at mahomes pacing on the sidelines, right.

3097
02:38:54,640 --> 02:38:56,920
Speaker 4: Right, that's the annoying shot, Not Taylor Swift. It's my

3098
02:38:56,959 --> 02:38:58,800
Speaker 4: home's pacing on the sideline. Wait and get to the ball.

3099
02:38:58,800 --> 02:38:59,480
Speaker 5: That I can't stand.

3100
02:39:01,440 --> 02:39:02,560
Speaker 3: What's your place for the game?

3101
02:39:04,160 --> 02:39:05,280
Speaker 5: You know what? I think I'm going to go to

3102
02:39:05,320 --> 02:39:09,400
Speaker 5: a local sports establishment and sit amongst the people. Local

3103
02:39:09,400 --> 02:39:11,040
Speaker 5: bar reaction. Yeah, I feel like I want to be

3104
02:39:11,080 --> 02:39:12,560
Speaker 5: amongst the people for the chaos of this.

3105
02:39:12,640 --> 02:39:16,600
Speaker 2: What's cousin, dude, that's we'll probably just do the family,

3106
02:39:18,320 --> 02:39:21,120
Speaker 2: all the boys they'll be watching, they'll watch with me.

3107
02:39:21,879 --> 02:39:24,760
Speaker 2: We'll get some football food, make a day of it,

3108
02:39:25,400 --> 02:39:28,640
Speaker 2: you know. So that's kind of where we're at. Man,

3109
02:39:28,840 --> 02:39:31,160
Speaker 2: I can't wait for it, I really can't. I mean,

3110
02:39:31,920 --> 02:39:35,920
Speaker 2: I'm hoping two great ones, you know. Listening you enjoyed Fitzie.

3111
