And I mean the way he walks 178 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 2: around and he looks. I just I'm I'm enjoying him 179 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 2: as a small guy. But I just know when when 180 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 2: we say, hey, mister Stick's is coming, you're gonna you're 181 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 2: gonna recognize that it ain't me that's that's coming. 182 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 3: Mister Styx is on the way. So yeah, that's that's 183 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 3: what it be. 184 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 2: And speaking of on the way, fellas, the Bills are 185 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 2: on the way, I mean they they have blown out 186 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 2: what has seemingly been a Dallas Cowboys team that well 187 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 2: looks to be a a Super Bowl contending need I say, 188 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 2: a Super Bowl contending type of team, and they go 189 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 2: out and they get waxed by the Bills. So now 190 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 2: they have a Chargers team that is head coachless. Uh 191 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:39,959 Speaker 2: they have a Patriots team that is head coachless, dang 192 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 2: almost head coachless lomost and then they finish out with 193 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 2: a with a strong one with the Dolphins on January seventh, 194 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 2: which you know we all know that that's that's like 195 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 2: almost like a preview of top teams right there. What's 196 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,679 Speaker 2: y'alls take on the on the Bills right now? Can 197 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:57,559 Speaker 2: we trust them? 198 00:08:58,040 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 3: Oh? Absolutely? 199 00:08:58,960 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 1: Man? 200 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 4: You know, I said, I said earlier this week that 201 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:05,679 Speaker 4: the Buffalo Bills remind me of our seventeen that went 202 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 4: on to you know, win the Super Bowl, because they're 203 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 4: flying under the radar and nobody is really uh you 204 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 4: know looking for the Bills, you know, to to first 205 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 4: of all make the playoffs, and they may be in 206 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,559 Speaker 4: a position to win the AFC East after all. And 207 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:26,079 Speaker 4: week you know what was week seventeen, Week eighteen when 208 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 4: they played the Miami Dolphins. And I just think that, 209 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:31,599 Speaker 4: you know, if Josh Allen contain used to play the 210 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 4: way he's been playing over the past month, and you know, 211 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 4: if he gets hot, you know he can you know, 212 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 4: you know wild this football team, you know, for the 213 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 4: for the remainder of the season, for these three weeks 214 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 4: to win the AFC East and get into the playoffs. 215 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 4: Because right now, if you're a AFC football team, I mean, 216 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 4: outside of probably I would say Baltimore and Kansas City, 217 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 4: you don't want to play the Buffalo Bills right now. 218 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 4: And if they sneak into the playoffs, which everybody had 219 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:06,439 Speaker 4: pretty much written them off because you know the way 220 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 4: they was playing, you know, you know, in the first 221 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,319 Speaker 4: part of the season, and then Ken Dorsey gets fired, 222 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 4: and now you look at how efficient and how effective 223 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,719 Speaker 4: the offense have been since Joe Brady has become the 224 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 4: offensive coordinator. I mean, I mean, it's been night and day, 225 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 4: but offensively for this team. So right now, man, listen, 226 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 4: the Buffalo Bills are on a track to be hot 227 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,439 Speaker 4: and be playing the best football right now. That's what 228 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:39,559 Speaker 4: you want going into the playoffs. 229 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 5: The Bills are looking like a team that nobody wants 230 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,440 Speaker 5: to play. Oh man, please let me avoid Buffalo, like 231 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 5: nobody wants to play. Josh Shalen and the Bills the 232 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 5: way they look right now, think they just blew the 233 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 5: Dallas Cowboys out, who everybody was high on. Jos shalindn't 234 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 5: even for one hundred yards. Josh Allen didn't throw for 235 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 5: a hundred yards, and they blew the Cowboys out. And 236 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 5: so now they're showing us we can win a different way. 237 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 5: We don't have to be so reliant on Josh Allen 238 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 5: that they can continue to play this brand of football, 239 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 5: this title of football, this style of football where it's 240 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,439 Speaker 5: just isn't Josh Allen, Oh, he got to win the 241 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 5: game for us. He don't win the game for us. 242 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 5: He has a bad game. We don't really have a chance. 243 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,839 Speaker 5: I was extremely impressed the way they I mean, they 244 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 5: just big boy the Cowboys. This the table we want 245 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 5: to sit at. Y'all go find another table. And the 246 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 5: Cowboys had no choice but to find another table. And 247 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 5: so that style of football in the playoffs that travels. 248 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 5: Can they do it week in and week out is 249 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 5: the question. They have not shown us they can do 250 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 5: they They have been shown us they can do it, 251 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 5: and they've been so incon assistant that that's why it's 252 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 5: do you trust the Bills if they can play first way, 253 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 5: if they can continue to know they're not gonna always 254 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 5: run for over two hundred yards, but if they can 255 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 5: just run the ball effectively, the way they. 256 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,679 Speaker 3: Play defense with Josh Allen. They're scary. Now. 257 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 5: The wild card is this Stefan Diggs. If you look 258 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 5: at the last six seven games, he's been somewhat of 259 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 5: a non factor, and so you are not going to 260 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 5: be able to win big playoff games which you are 261 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 5: best receiver not playing like your best receiver. 262 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 3: They have to figure that out. What's going on? Is 263 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 3: it him? 264 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 5: Is it the offenses that play design, is it not 265 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 5: the whatever it is. They got to figure that out 266 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 5: because they are a team that nobody wants to play, 267 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 5: because they everybody knows. We play the Bills. Unless Josh 268 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 5: Allen turns the ball over, win a dogfight. If they 269 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:04,080 Speaker 5: can run the ball, it's over. Cook is a beast too. 270 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 5: We'll see what happens with that. 271 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 3: That's t J. 272 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 2: Hutchman's eyes, Plexico Birds.

Fellas, this 339 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 2: team is pretty We talked about a dangerous team in 340 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 2: this Buffalo Bills team. But the Los Angeles Rams, Oh 341 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 2: did I say the La Rams don't look now, but 342 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:11,919 Speaker 2: they're eight and seven and they have a tilt coming 343 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 2: with well, the new York Giants. You know Danny de Vito, 344 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 2: he's he's tired of being the veto of the NFL. 345 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,880 Speaker 2: But they got they got a very winnable game coming 346 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,359 Speaker 2: up against the Giants, and then they finish out the 347 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 2: year with the San Francisco forty nine Ers, which the 348 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:36,400 Speaker 2: Niners may have the number one seed wrapped up by 349 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 2: next week and may not have much to play for. 350 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,880 Speaker 2: This team could possibly this Rams team could possibly put 351 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 2: together a two game winning streak heading into what seemingly. 352 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:47,880 Speaker 3: Is a lock for. 353 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 2: A wild card bid in the NFC, in the second 354 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 2: place finish in the West. 355 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 3: What what I mean? What's your take? How are you 356 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 3: guys seeing this? 357 00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 2: With the playing out with Sean mcvayan, these Los Angeles Rams? 358 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 5: Man, When when you look at does anybody want to 359 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 5: play the Rams the way they're playing on offense? That 360 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 5: that's the thing where you don't want to play a 361 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 5: team that's quarterbacked by Matthew Stafford. He duds won a 362 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 5: Super Bowl. Who's playing extremely well offensively? You got Cooper Cup, 363 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 5: you got Pooka Naku, got Kyron Williams Rookie of the Year. 364 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,639 Speaker 5: He's missed four games and is a second leading rusher 365 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 5: in the National Football League. 366 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,720 Speaker 3: I know CJ. Stroud is the guy, but Pooka has poo. 367 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 5: If CJ doesn't, I believe see this will be the 368 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:48,640 Speaker 5: last weekend that CJ misses the concussion. But Pooka gonna 369 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 5: be right there for Rookie of the Year, if not winning, 370 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 5: not winning the way that he's playing. And so who 371 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,400 Speaker 5: wants to play the Rams in the playoffs? That that's 372 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 5: you don't want to play them? Points per game, they're 373 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 5: in the top ten yards per game, they're in the 374 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 5: top ten, and so they can beat you on the ground. 375 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:09,639 Speaker 5: We know they can beat you in the air. And 376 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 5: so the way the Rounds are playing, what Sean McVay 377 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 5: has done with a team that, let's be honest, people 378 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,400 Speaker 5: thought would win three four games, they're going to beat 379 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:19,400 Speaker 5: the Giants this weekend. 380 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:21,199 Speaker 3: And it's what you said. 381 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 5: The Niners may have home field advantage wrapped up, they 382 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 5: may shit everybody. The Rounds will get into the playoffs. 383 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:28,400 Speaker 3: And so. 384 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 5: For a team that many thought was rebuilding, which they are, 385 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 5: but they're rebuilding and being very competitive on their way 386 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 5: to the playoffs. The way they're playing offensively with Sean 387 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 5: McVay Matthew Stafford. Nobody wants to see the rounds. And 388 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:48,360 Speaker 5: you got to give Raheen Morris a ton of credit, Yes, 389 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 5: you do, because when they when they traded Jayalen Ramsey 390 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 5: and they started to get rid of pieces, the thought was, Okay, yeah, 391 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 5: the Rams are rebuilding, and this is a rebu They're 392 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:05,359 Speaker 5: just rebuilding and being competitive and winning at the same time. 393 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 5: And so what he's done on the defensive side of 394 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 5: the ball, that can't go un notice because everything getsn't 395 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 5: mentioned and we're not on the same page. It doesn't 396 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,360 Speaker 5: matter what the offensive defense is doing. It's complimentary football, 397 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 5: and that's what they're doing in Los Angeles. 398 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 3: Man. 399 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 4: I think for the Rams, with what I've been saying offensively, man, 400 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:25,920 Speaker 4: it's just gonna come down to Matthew Stafford. I mean, 401 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 4: you know, he's been playing well over the last month. 402 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 4: No I give him that, but you know he can 403 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 4: go on these binges of having inconsistent play for weeks 404 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:36,879 Speaker 4: at a time, and you know, just like the other 405 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 4: day when he was scamming out to his left, he 406 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,680 Speaker 4: throws this side underarm pass, Like why would you even 407 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:46,640 Speaker 4: put the ball in harm's way in a situation like that. 408 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 3: You know, we've seen him. 409 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 4: You know he can be a common cause of you 410 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 4: at times as far as turning the football over. It's 411 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 4: just like you said for Raheem Man this defense with 412 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 4: you know, you know, getting rid of von Miller and 413 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:00,199 Speaker 4: you know, getting rid of Jadon and Ramsey. I mean, 414 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,159 Speaker 4: obviously you still have Aaron Donald. He's getting double and 415 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 4: sometimes triple team on on defense. But uh, just last 416 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 4: week what they scored. They scored thirty one points, thirty points, 417 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 4: So the office is really clicking. And you look at 418 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,719 Speaker 4: this kid pooking the cop Man. They actually found a 419 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 4: true gym, you know in this young man. What the 420 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 4: ninety six catches thirteen hundred yards, those are first. 421 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 3: Team he gonna set the rookie right, Yeah. 422 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 4: He's one hundred and forty seven yard from setting the 423 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 4: rookie record, broke and those those are first team All 424 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 4: Pro numbers man, And this kid is a rookie. And 425 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 4: you know I saw that play he made the other day, 426 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 4: man falling down. I mean that's still what you played 427 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 4: the wide receiver position. 428 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 3: Man. 429 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 4: So obviously they have everything they need. Kroen wings Man, 430 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:47,880 Speaker 4: this is the way this guy's been running the football 431 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 4: and they can get this kid to uh, you know, 432 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 4: DeMarcus Robinson to keep playing the way that he's playing. 433 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:56,120 Speaker 4: In addition to Cooper Cup and Pooking the cop man. 434 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 4: This office can be good, but it's gonna come to 435 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 4: the Killies Hill this office and come down to Matthew Staff. 436 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 4: Can he be consistent weekend and week out and play 437 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,120 Speaker 4: good football? That's what That's what it's gonna come down 438 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 4: to for the. 439 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 2: Rams, I'm gonna go on the defense side or ball, y'all. 440 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 2: Y'all mentioned it, but y'all stayed offensive heavy. Y'all left 441 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,400 Speaker 2: a lot of meat on the bone for me. Ernest Jones. 442 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 2: If you don't know his name, you need to get 443 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 2: to know his name. He's a linebacker. He's out of 444 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 2: South South Carolina balling. I mean he is bawling. He's 445 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 2: got four and a half sacks. He's over one hundred 446 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:36,359 Speaker 2: tackles in his his you know, in this season at 447 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 2: one hundred and thirty two, dude is getting it in. 448 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 3: You also got the safety and mister Fuller, Jordan Fuller. 449 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 3: You know, if you're a Buckeye fan, you know that 450 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:52,199 Speaker 3: that he can ball. And let's not get it confused. 451 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:56,199 Speaker 2: The anchor of this defense where you always have a 452 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,359 Speaker 2: chance is Aaron Donald. 453 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 3: He's still he has wietly, which. 454 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 2: I don't understand because maybe it's because they've been they 455 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 2: lost for so much, or just have been an inconsistent 456 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 2: team for much of this year and they weren't accomplishing 457 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:12,440 Speaker 2: at the level that they were when they were heading 458 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 2: towards their Super Bowl run. But he has quietly, obscurely 459 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 2: had a masterful season. 460 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 3: Again, like the dude. The dude has six sacts like 461 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 3: that might not be as many as as it has 462 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,399 Speaker 3: been in the past, but he's got he's got pass deflections. 463 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:37,160 Speaker 2: He's got six pass defenses, which is for a defensive lineman, 464 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 2: that's a lot. He's forced to fumble. 465 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 3: He has played at a very very high level, an 466 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 3: MVP level. 467 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,479 Speaker 2: If you asked me for the duration of this season, 468 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,399 Speaker 2: and yeah, I give a lot of credit. 469 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 3: I give a lot of credit to. 470 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:58,360 Speaker 2: Raheem Morris for pulling together what would seemingly be a 471 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 2: patchwork style of of a defense. And and so in 472 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 2: looking at where you know this team currently is, if 473 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,399 Speaker 2: they get into the playoffs, I don't see them, of course, 474 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,160 Speaker 2: I mean who knows. 475 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 3: I mean I know, I know. 476 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:17,200 Speaker 2: You saying that that Stafford has played inconsistent, which he has, 477 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:19,959 Speaker 2: but he's also a VET at this point, and like 478 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 2: you mentioned as well, TJ, he's a super Bowl winning 479 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:25,880 Speaker 2: VET and he knows how to play out a high level. 480 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 3: He might have been playing possible. I mean, I don't know. 481 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 2: I don't know if he's in the road and it's like, okay, 482 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 2: like I'm gonna play dead for a minute, Okay, site 483 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 2: got you. 484 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 3: I'm get up. I'm gonna runup off this road. You 485 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 3: ain't running me over. 486 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,879 Speaker 2: It's it's it's getting closer to the playoffs and the 487 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 2: way he played and in that last game, the way 488 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 2: he was, you know, finding angles and and delivering the ball. 489 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 2: If Cooper Cup stays healthy with him and and Pooka 490 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 2: out there playing the way that that they're playing, and 491 00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 2: and and just you know. 492 00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 3: For for what it's worth, if you're able to get 493 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 3: something out of Williams out of the backfield, and even 494 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,919 Speaker 3: you know, the titand hasn't it hasn't been a large 495 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,440 Speaker 3: pop part of what it is that they got going 496 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 3: on within their offense. But if they're able to actually 497 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 3: get some things going with their running attack, could this 498 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 3: could get it could get ugly. 499 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 2: For somebody in the first round, you know, I mean, 500 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 2: it really could be a problem for somebody that they 501 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:30,639 Speaker 2: play in the first round of the playoffs. 502 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,640 Speaker 3: That's kind of how I look at it.

We just talked 541 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:34,399 Speaker 2: about Pooka Nakua and him making a push for that 542 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:37,959 Speaker 2: Rookie of the Year award. It seemed like it was 543 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,399 Speaker 2: just a runaway trained for for CJ. 544 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 3: Stroud. But here comes to concussion. He's missed. 545 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:46,679 Speaker 2: Now, you know, heading into another game that he's not 546 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:48,879 Speaker 2: going to be able to play being in the protocol, 547 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,439 Speaker 2: But I mean he was in the conversation if you 548 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 2: ask me for Offensive Player of the Year, maybe even 549 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 2: MVP of the league as a rookie with the performing 550 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 2: is that he has put together in the resurgence and 551 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 2: reemergence of the Houston Texans, they will not have him 552 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,159 Speaker 2: going against the Browns. This is a This is a 553 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 2: big game for them. They're still pushing to try to 554 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 2: make it into the playoffs, keep those playoff hopes alive. 555 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,359 Speaker 2: And this Browns team, well they're trying to figure it 556 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:23,679 Speaker 2: out as well. But Joe Flacco has come on like 557 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 2: a storm. The Delaware Blue Hen is doing his thing 558 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:31,880 Speaker 2: right now. How do you guys see this playing out? 559 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:36,119 Speaker 2: Is the magic carpet ride with Demico Ryans and this CJ. 560 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 2: Stroud Let's Houston Texans team this weekend. Are they in 561 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 2: over their heads or can they continue the magic until 562 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 2: CJ gets back and finish it out with a season 563 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 2: finale to get into the playoffs. 564 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 5: Anytime you're plan with your backup quarterback, you know you're 565 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 5: running uphill. It's gonna be more than a dogfight, and 566 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 5: you're going against it team in the Cleveland Browns that 567 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:08,520 Speaker 5: defensively present so much of a challenge that front, the 568 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 5: way they played, the way they get after the quarterback, 569 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 5: that within itself is tough with your starting quarterback in 570 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 5: the game, let alone the back another backup case, Keenum 571 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 5: has been around the National Football League a long time, 572 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 5: but being around it and getting snaps on a constant basis, 573 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 5: that's a different story. And so that defense, the way 574 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 5: they play. And now with Flacco, I mean, he's playing 575 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 5: good football. It's not great for he's turning the ball 576 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 5: over here and there, but he's making the plays when 577 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 5: they need them. Flacco is a guy that's won a 578 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 5: Super Bowl, big arm, can play in any type of weather. 579 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:48,640 Speaker 5: His game travels. It doesn't matter where he goes, rain, 580 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 5: sleep snow. When he's gonna be able to throw the 581 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 5: football because his arm is that good, and so it's 582 00:29:54,920 --> 00:30:00,239 Speaker 5: gonna be tough for the Texans to get to they 583 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 5: want to go. And that's the play what Demko Ryans 584 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 5: has done in his first year as a coach. We 585 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 5: didn't expect this, Like they just had the second pick 586 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 5: and they're fighting for the playoffs. Not only are they 587 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:15,719 Speaker 5: fighting for the playoffs, they don't even have their starting 588 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 5: quarterback when it really matters and they think of things 589 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,200 Speaker 5: and they're still fighting for the playoffs. And so for me, 590 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 5: this season is a win. But I don't believe they 591 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 5: can get to where they want to go without CJ. 592 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 3: Stroud under center. 593 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 4: Oh Man, just say what you were saying, lav I 594 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 4: was saying. You know, some people were talking about pooking 595 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 4: the coup being the rookie of the year now, especially that, uh, 596 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 4: you know, CJ. Stroude has missed a couple of games. 597 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,200 Speaker 4: But I don't care what happens with the with the 598 00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 4: Houston Texans for the rest of the year because de 599 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 4: Miko o'rions is my coach of the year. I mean, 600 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 4: I really think that he went in there and did 601 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 4: a job that nobody could foresee. I mean we were 602 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 4: talking about the Houston Texans, the Carolina Panthers, and the 603 00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 4: Arizona Cardinals being three of the worst team than all 604 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 4: of football. And now you look at this team, man, 605 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 4: and they're three way tie for first place in the 606 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 4: AFC South and they may make the playoffs, they may 607 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 4: win the division. I mean, who who would have thought that? 608 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 4: Especially the way she say Stroud's been playing. Man, you know, uh, 609 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 4: I mean, there's really nothing that you just said about 610 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 4: the young man that he hasn't you know done. Man, 611 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 4: I think he has come in and exceeded everybody expectations 612 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 4: as far as what he was going to be. I mean, 613 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 4: you would be expected for him to be playing this 614 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 4: this type of football, you know, three four, five years 615 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 4: in and he's just a rookie. Also, so I'm looking 616 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 4: for the Houston Texas, man, it's gonna really come down 617 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 4: to the wire in the last game of the season 618 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 4: in this AFC South Conference, man. And for the Browns, listen, 619 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 4: I just I'm always gonna go with defense, you know, 620 00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 4: playing in Pittsburgh and obviously you know, playing here in 621 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 4: New York. Man, all the teams that I've played on, 622 00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 4: they all We've always been defense heavy teams and you 623 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 4: are never out of a football game, especially you the 624 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 4: Cleveland Browns, when you got the best defense in all 625 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 4: of football. It's like you said, man, look, Joe Flacco 626 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:16,720 Speaker 4: doesn't pass the eye test and none flashy about his game. 627 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 4: He's been around for a long time. Like I said, 628 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 4: he's a Super Bowl winning quarterback and he knows how 629 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 4: to play the game football. He's going to manage the 630 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 4: game well enough that he's going to keep them in 631 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 4: the game. Especially with this defense that you have, you 632 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 4: just don't know, you know what you're going to get 633 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 4: from the Officially, if Mark Cooper can raise his level 634 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 4: of play, that just makes his team that much more dangerous. 635 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 4: So I'm not counting the Browns out because they have 636 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 4: the best defense, but going forward, you just don't know. 637 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,320 Speaker 4: You know what you're going to get from the Cleveland Browns. 638 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 4: We can and week out and they're like this mystery 639 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 4: piece in the AFC. But I'm going to ride with defense. 640 00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 4: So Cleveland Browns are never out of it. You know. 641 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 2: It's interesting you think about like the coaches that have 642 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 2: left the Kyle Shanahan coaching tree, and I'll just keep 643 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 2: it to two right now, which is Robert Salah and 644 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 2: Jamiko Ryans because they, you know, Jamiko obviously success uh 645 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,480 Speaker 2: Salah sala is having a hell of a time trying 646 00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 2: to figure this thing out in New York. And I 647 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:27,280 Speaker 2: would not I would not venture to say that Houston, 648 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 2: after post post Deshaun Watson, everything was in more shambles 649 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:35,040 Speaker 2: than New. 650 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 3: York the New York Jets. I would not. I would 651 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 3: not understate that. 652 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 2: I think that there as far as a buildout, right, 653 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 2: it was going to take just as much, if not more, 654 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:47,560 Speaker 2: to try to build out what's going on in Houston 655 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 2: than what you got going on in New York. 656 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:51,239 Speaker 3: Can you agree with this? 657 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:56,239 Speaker 4: Do the New York Jets have a better group of 658 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:59,720 Speaker 4: guys on defense as far as a unit than the 659 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:00,560 Speaker 4: Houston Texans do? 660 00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 3: Easily? I think easily they do. I think easily they do. 661 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,000 Speaker 2: I think he's done a fine job with this this 662 00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:13,720 Speaker 2: Texans defense. But if you're talking about expectations, big name players, playmakers, 663 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,400 Speaker 2: the Jets have that they have all of that with 664 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:21,960 Speaker 2: their defense, and yet Robert Salah cannot figure out in 665 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 2: which in a season where the division is up for grabs, 666 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 2: it's not even like it's a defined the New England 667 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 2: Patriots and everyone else. It's it's a season where you 668 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 2: could have really really established yourself as being one of 669 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:40,040 Speaker 2: those teams, and he has not been able to do it. 670 00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 2: And yet you look out of Demico Rans in his 671 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:45,520 Speaker 2: first season has been able to do some tremendous and 672 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:48,479 Speaker 2: amazing things with this Houston Texans team. 673 00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:51,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, you know, they. 674 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 2: Have a number two overall drive pick as well that 675 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:55,840 Speaker 2: that played in New York as well, and we saw how. 676 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 3: That all played out. 677 00:34:56,680 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 2: So the second pick, I'm just you know, I'm just 678 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 2: pointed out the obvious shots out to Demiko Rans in 679 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:07,320 Speaker 2: the Houston Texas, shots out the Plexico Burds and tjhchmand Zada, 680 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,200 Speaker 2: and shots out to all of our people that's out 681 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 2: there listening to everything that we're going to listen.

What's y'all's 745 00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:16,759 Speaker 2: take on it? 746 00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:18,160 Speaker 3: Man? 747 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:22,000 Speaker 5: We knew just from being around I didn't tear my achilles. 748 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:25,360 Speaker 5: We spoke about this, LeVar you did and being around 749 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 5: guys that have coming back in the same same season, 750 00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 5: huh was like huh, and it looked like. 751 00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 3: Wow, is he really about to do this? Obviously it 752 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:37,480 Speaker 3: did not happen. 753 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:42,480 Speaker 5: It gave a lot of Jets fans hope, probably players 754 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:44,320 Speaker 5: in the locker room hope. 755 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:48,399 Speaker 3: But the disappointing thing is I don't know who it is. 756 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 5: There's somebody on that team that had a roster spot 757 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:57,160 Speaker 5: that no longer has one, and so it's a domino 758 00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:01,600 Speaker 5: effect that not many think about. It's a guy that's 759 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,920 Speaker 5: a fringe player. He's just trying to stick in the league. 760 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 5: Where you know, with the rules now, they're so different 761 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:09,840 Speaker 5: from when we played with the practice squad. You know, 762 00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:11,399 Speaker 5: you can only be on the practice squad. I believe 763 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:13,239 Speaker 5: it was a couple of years when we played. Now 764 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 5: God's can be on the practice squad six seven, eight, 765 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:19,759 Speaker 5: nine years and you can be taken up and down 766 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:21,960 Speaker 5: on the rostraw thraw. I mean, there's just so many 767 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 5: different rules nowadays. But that to me, that that kind 768 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 5: of sucks for whoever that young man is that was 769 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:35,480 Speaker 5: the fringe player that once they activated Aaron Rodgers, he 770 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,960 Speaker 5: loses a roster spot and now he has to go 771 00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:44,000 Speaker 5: find another team to play for. And so it's around Christmas, 772 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 5: the holidays, we've been talking, you know, playing the Christmas music, 773 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:50,520 Speaker 5: and so for him and his family, he's being released 774 00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 5: around the holidays, and that sucks for him and his family. 775 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:56,279 Speaker 3: And that's not that's not much people don't think about that. 776 00:39:56,800 --> 00:40:00,759 Speaker 5: And so there's a young man that was on team 777 00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:03,360 Speaker 5: that is no longer on the team. Around the holidays, 778 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:05,800 Speaker 5: and that sucks for him. But I wish Sharon Rodgers 779 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:06,640 Speaker 5: and just the best. 780 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:09,920 Speaker 3: I mean, at this point, why would you activate him 781 00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 3: to the to the. 782 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 4: Roster just to practice. It just doesn't you don't need 783 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,800 Speaker 4: it doesn't even make any sense. Why is he practicing though? 784 00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:25,440 Speaker 4: What is he trying to do? Gutia Achilles? Nobody is 785 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 4: coming back off of Achilles four months removed from a surgery. 786 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:33,880 Speaker 4: Ain't going to play football, And just for all the 787 00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:37,399 Speaker 4: reasons what TJ was talking about, it just makes no sense, 788 00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 4: Like what is he trying to do? And we just 789 00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:45,560 Speaker 4: I think two weeks ago he went on the mcifee 790 00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 4: show and he was just like, you know, it's an 791 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:51,000 Speaker 4: organizational problem, and you know all of these things that 792 00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:54,359 Speaker 4: are that's going on, how they get this information in 793 00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:56,880 Speaker 4: and out of the locker room, all of these things 794 00:40:56,880 --> 00:41:00,920 Speaker 4: are surrounding him. And every single day that we wake 795 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:02,960 Speaker 4: up over hill to the east coasting in the Big Apple 796 00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:06,240 Speaker 4: is Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Rodgers and Rodgers like, yo, man, 797 00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:10,920 Speaker 4: the season's over, Like why you taking the spot of it? 798 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 4: Just like they said, young man, that can be playing 799 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:18,520 Speaker 4: for the rest of the season and you're not going 800 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:24,720 Speaker 4: to play and it's it's sadder from an organizational standpoint 801 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,800 Speaker 4: for them making the move. That's what I don't understand 802 00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:28,080 Speaker 4: about it. 803 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:31,839 Speaker 3: It's sub it's subs than the substanviewe huge.

This 809 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:53,600 Speaker 2: team stinks and they have grossly underperformed. You used a 810 00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,200 Speaker 2: high drive pick on a guy. He's not doing well. 811 00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 2: And you know what, Your only storyline of hope for 812 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 2: a very very very large media market and a very 813 00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:07,160 Speaker 2: very hardcore fan fan base is to sell the hope 814 00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:10,239 Speaker 2: that Aaron Rodgers could possibly come back this season. And 815 00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:14,640 Speaker 2: by doing that, you almost because you're almost preserving the 816 00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:15,880 Speaker 2: coaches jobs. 817 00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:17,719 Speaker 3: Those are all coaching jobs. 818 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:19,719 Speaker 2: That Aaron Rodgers wants to come back if he's going 819 00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:21,040 Speaker 2: to come back and play next year. 820 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:24,000 Speaker 3: This is up one game.
