<v Speaker 2>Welcome Man, Watch Driving the Great Episode two seventy nine

0:00:46.760 --> 0:00:52.240
<v Speaker 2>hour Week twelve Gambling Show spoiler alert. On The Gambling Show,

0:00:52.320 --> 0:00:54.960
<v Speaker 2>I had my worst week of the season and Demonde

0:00:55.000 --> 0:01:00.800
<v Speaker 2>crushed another teaser. So happy for you, gotta be honest,

0:01:00.800 --> 0:01:02.920
<v Speaker 2>A little sad for me. I thought my process was

0:01:03.000 --> 0:01:06.600
<v Speaker 2>quite sound last week. I liked where I was and

0:01:06.640 --> 0:01:10.399
<v Speaker 2>these were not close losses. These were not ah I

0:01:10.440 --> 0:01:15.639
<v Speaker 2>got unlucky, these were annihilations. I had the Falcons catching

0:01:15.680 --> 0:01:18.440
<v Speaker 2>a couple points and they lost by thirty to bow Knicks.

0:01:19.680 --> 0:01:24.399
<v Speaker 2>I waxed poetic about the Chiefs and Mahomes as an underdog.

0:01:24.520 --> 0:01:28.039
<v Speaker 2>They're down nine for the bulk of that fourth quarter.

0:01:28.280 --> 0:01:32.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean, really just a debacle, a true gambling tragedy

0:01:33.040 --> 0:01:37.560
<v Speaker 2>of a day. And it was you know, I have

0:01:37.720 --> 0:01:44.040
<v Speaker 2>been on bit of a cold streak after really ride

0:01:44.040 --> 0:01:49.320
<v Speaker 2>and high with my actual real life bets because I

0:01:49.360 --> 0:01:51.920
<v Speaker 2>make the bets that I the five picks. I make

0:01:51.960 --> 0:01:54.600
<v Speaker 2>those bets, but those aren't the only bets I make

0:01:54.640 --> 0:01:58.320
<v Speaker 2>throughout the week. And I'd been doing really well up

0:01:58.440 --> 0:02:06.280
<v Speaker 2>until a couple tuesdays ago, and it started with the election.

0:02:06.440 --> 0:02:14.119
<v Speaker 2>Bets got hammered, just absolutely brutalized on every front. There

0:02:15.040 --> 0:02:20.440
<v Speaker 2>A lost minus three hundred popular vote bet, obviously lost

0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:24.040
<v Speaker 2>overall winner, lost the state bets. So that wasn't great.

0:02:24.760 --> 0:02:31.600
<v Speaker 2>That weekend, I, i'll be honest, chased my gambling losses

0:02:32.240 --> 0:02:36.440
<v Speaker 2>or my election losses with some football bets. And then

0:02:36.600 --> 0:02:40.359
<v Speaker 2>this weekend I was like, well, luckily, the gambling gods

0:02:40.400 --> 0:02:42.960
<v Speaker 2>have given me a gift, and that gift is Patrick

0:02:43.000 --> 0:02:46.240
<v Speaker 2>Mahomes as an underdog. And so this is one of

0:02:46.240 --> 0:02:52.320
<v Speaker 2>those times where Demond's we pause, we regroup, We're very

0:02:52.480 --> 0:02:57.200
<v Speaker 2>very thankful that we have a good job and that

0:02:58.040 --> 0:03:01.960
<v Speaker 2>we have you know money. He set aside that your

0:03:03.639 --> 0:03:08.000
<v Speaker 2>mother doesn't always see as our annual gambling budget. While

0:03:08.040 --> 0:03:10.720
<v Speaker 2>that pot of money had been growing over the course

0:03:10.760 --> 0:03:15.280
<v Speaker 2>of the year, it's now somewhat depleted. And we regroup.

0:03:15.840 --> 0:03:18.520
<v Speaker 2>I mean, this is what we have to do. And

0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:21.799
<v Speaker 2>you get, you know, you get the weird call from

0:03:21.880 --> 0:03:25.040
<v Speaker 2>your accountant like, hey, I'm a little worried, is there

0:03:25.200 --> 0:03:28.040
<v Speaker 2>Like has your PayPal been hacked? And it's like, no,

0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:33.160
<v Speaker 2>just paying people I lost bets to. It's like really,

0:03:33.840 --> 0:03:36.480
<v Speaker 2>like are you no double check that. They're like this

0:03:36.680 --> 0:03:40.360
<v Speaker 2>is I'm like no, Like yeah, They're like, what is

0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:43.960
<v Speaker 2>what does the k H note line me? I'm like,

0:03:44.000 --> 0:03:48.120
<v Speaker 2>well it means Kamala Harris Like okay, what about what

0:03:48.280 --> 0:03:51.560
<v Speaker 2>about de T I was like, oh that was Lion's

0:03:51.640 --> 0:03:54.080
<v Speaker 2>minus three and a half. In a night, Jared Goff

0:03:54.200 --> 0:03:58.480
<v Speaker 2>through five interceptions like listen, this is Liz life. You

0:03:58.600 --> 0:04:02.360
<v Speaker 2>got it, like the the you you know, this is

0:04:03.040 --> 0:04:06.800
<v Speaker 2>the you know, the life I have chosen, so to speak,

0:04:07.120 --> 0:04:11.280
<v Speaker 2>And so I have to regroup. Is the short version,

0:04:11.400 --> 0:04:15.880
<v Speaker 2>and today is the path back to profitability. It's the

0:04:15.960 --> 0:04:18.400
<v Speaker 2>only way to Oh I didn't even mention and again

0:04:18.520 --> 0:04:22.200
<v Speaker 2>no spoilers, but mixed in in this two week period,

0:04:22.640 --> 0:04:25.760
<v Speaker 2>I did also play in the highest stakes poker game

0:04:25.800 --> 0:04:28.839
<v Speaker 2>of my life with Phil Locke, Phil Helm The Antonio's

0:04:28.920 --> 0:04:32.280
<v Speaker 2>Fondiari and others. And again that won't come out until

0:04:32.320 --> 0:04:34.760
<v Speaker 2>the spring on YouTube. And I'm not giving anything away,

0:04:35.279 --> 0:04:38.320
<v Speaker 2>but I what I will say is, do you think

0:04:38.360 --> 0:04:40.919
<v Speaker 2>I'd be more or less tilted if I had crushed

0:04:40.960 --> 0:04:41.680
<v Speaker 2>that game or not?

0:04:42.240 --> 0:04:42.560
<v Speaker 1>Like this?

0:04:42.760 --> 0:04:45.800
<v Speaker 2>So you guys, you guys, go ahead and do the

0:04:45.839 --> 0:04:49.800
<v Speaker 2>math on how the last you know, fifteen days have

0:04:49.920 --> 0:04:53.360
<v Speaker 2>gone for your old buddy Nick, right, and you know

0:04:53.720 --> 0:04:56.320
<v Speaker 2>we keep it moving, all right, Here's what missed the

0:04:56.360 --> 0:04:59.440
<v Speaker 2>cut on today's show. That was therapeutic man coach Ray

0:04:59.520 --> 0:05:02.240
<v Speaker 2>Lewis maybe to Florida Atlantic. Well, he's not gonna do

0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:07.480
<v Speaker 2>worse than Trent Dilfer. Lebron celebrates Dalton connect which has

0:05:07.560 --> 0:05:10.440
<v Speaker 2>been just a great draft pick by the Lakers. He's

0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:12.920
<v Speaker 2>been awesome and my favorite tennis player of all time,

0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:17.839
<v Speaker 2>Rofin Adah has retired. All right, demons, let's get to

0:05:18.680 --> 0:05:22.000
<v Speaker 2>an organization, a team, some people who somehow have managed

0:05:22.000 --> 0:05:23.839
<v Speaker 2>to have a worse last couple of weeks than me.

0:05:24.360 --> 0:05:25.840
<v Speaker 2>The New York Football Jets.

0:05:25.880 --> 0:05:30.039
<v Speaker 3>Go ahead, and so the Jets fired their GM somehow,

0:05:30.080 --> 0:05:32.960
<v Speaker 3>that's not the huge story coming out of there. Apparently

0:05:33.040 --> 0:05:35.960
<v Speaker 3>their owner of Woody Johnson wanted a bench Aaron Rodgers

0:05:36.000 --> 0:05:41.320
<v Speaker 3>after week four. This organization's obviously a mess from top

0:05:41.360 --> 0:05:43.440
<v Speaker 3>to bottom. You can't really just put it all on Rogers,

0:05:43.520 --> 0:05:46.160
<v Speaker 3>but he's a part of it. People say Belichick will

0:05:46.200 --> 0:05:48.599
<v Speaker 3>be a great coach again if someone else ran this team.

0:05:49.080 --> 0:05:51.039
<v Speaker 3>Do you think the same would be true for Aaron Rodgers.

0:05:52.560 --> 0:05:55.479
<v Speaker 2>No, So listen, it's obviously not all on Aaron and

0:05:55.520 --> 0:05:59.000
<v Speaker 2>what he is one of, if not the worst owner

0:05:59.000 --> 0:06:03.120
<v Speaker 2>in the league. And here is here is my big

0:06:03.200 --> 0:06:08.960
<v Speaker 2>concern if for Jet fans out there, because Jet fans,

0:06:09.560 --> 0:06:12.080
<v Speaker 2>the majority of them deserve better. And I say the

0:06:12.120 --> 0:06:14.560
<v Speaker 2>majority of them because I don't really care if Fireman

0:06:14.760 --> 0:06:17.839
<v Speaker 2>ed gets better or not. Ever since that guy ran

0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:19.960
<v Speaker 2>to the media and was like, they're not putting me

0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:22.040
<v Speaker 2>on the jumbo tron as much as they used to.

0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:26.320
<v Speaker 2>They're phasing me out, Like, buddy, relax, you're a guy

0:06:26.360 --> 0:06:28.880
<v Speaker 2>that wears a fireman's helmet to football games and they

0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:31.080
<v Speaker 2>really think you're the fifty fourth guy on the roster.

0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:34.520
<v Speaker 2>Like we calm down with the Jets ops are phasing

0:06:34.560 --> 0:06:38.760
<v Speaker 2>me out of the operation. But most Jet fans good folks,

0:06:39.520 --> 0:06:41.680
<v Speaker 2>and they have to deal with the fact that they

0:06:41.720 --> 0:06:45.360
<v Speaker 2>live in a two team city and if the people

0:06:45.440 --> 0:06:48.520
<v Speaker 2>aren't Jet fans or Giant fans. And while the Giants

0:06:48.520 --> 0:06:52.440
<v Speaker 2>have been a disaster for the last half decade, they

0:06:52.480 --> 0:06:57.040
<v Speaker 2>are a prestige franchise. They won Super Bowls with Parcels,

0:06:57.360 --> 0:07:00.920
<v Speaker 2>they won Super Bowls with Eli, They've played in big

0:07:01.000 --> 0:07:04.640
<v Speaker 2>games like so you have that little brother big brother thing,

0:07:04.839 --> 0:07:08.240
<v Speaker 2>and you add to it, a lot of Jet fans

0:07:08.279 --> 0:07:11.720
<v Speaker 2>are also Met fans, and a lot of Giant fans

0:07:11.760 --> 0:07:16.760
<v Speaker 2>are Yankee fans. That's usually how it goes, like Jets, Mets, Giants, Yankees,

0:07:16.760 --> 0:07:19.520
<v Speaker 2>and then everyone's a Knicks fan because nobody likes the Nets.

0:07:20.920 --> 0:07:24.120
<v Speaker 2>So you have like you get little Brother two times over.

0:07:24.440 --> 0:07:28.520
<v Speaker 2>So I do feel for Jet fans sincerely, again, except

0:07:28.520 --> 0:07:36.160
<v Speaker 2>for Firemanette. And I here's my concern. It appears to

0:07:36.200 --> 0:07:41.480
<v Speaker 2>me Woody Johnson might be the reason I think he

0:07:41.760 --> 0:07:46.560
<v Speaker 2>fired Joe Douglas, who I have no tears for Joe Douglas.

0:07:46.600 --> 0:07:50.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna bounce around here a bit. I apologize. It

0:07:50.280 --> 0:07:56.880
<v Speaker 2>is it is very very clear that Joe Douglas made

0:07:56.880 --> 0:07:59.840
<v Speaker 2>a lot of friends in the media. When a guy

0:08:00.000 --> 0:08:04.840
<v Speaker 2>who's thirty and sixty four and got six years to

0:08:04.880 --> 0:08:09.080
<v Speaker 2>be a general manager, people are like, oh, man, look

0:08:09.120 --> 0:08:13.040
<v Speaker 2>at all these great players he drafted. Bro, you ran

0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:16.720
<v Speaker 2>this team for six years. They were a disaster the

0:08:16.800 --> 0:08:20.840
<v Speaker 2>whole time. Yeah, the the drafts couldn't have been that great.

0:08:21.400 --> 0:08:23.920
<v Speaker 2>And you were like, oh, the twenty twenty two draft,

0:08:24.160 --> 0:08:28.920
<v Speaker 2>you're you had the fourth tenth, twenty sixth, and thirty

0:08:28.960 --> 0:08:31.640
<v Speaker 2>sixth pick of that draft. You're supposed to do well

0:08:31.680 --> 0:08:35.199
<v Speaker 2>in that draft. Now you got one of those extra

0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:37.920
<v Speaker 2>picks by trading the Jamal Adam trade, which wasn't all

0:08:37.960 --> 0:08:40.320
<v Speaker 2>time good trade, and credit to him for that. But

0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:44.360
<v Speaker 2>this the little mini violins for Joe Douglas because he

0:08:44.440 --> 0:08:46.880
<v Speaker 2>had been a friend to media and maybe fed some

0:08:47.000 --> 0:08:49.880
<v Speaker 2>stories like it was a little too much for my taste,

0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:55.240
<v Speaker 2>like he wasn't done wrong. But firing your GM mid

0:08:55.360 --> 0:08:59.400
<v Speaker 2>season is odd. It's just it's not like you're you

0:08:59.440 --> 0:09:02.120
<v Speaker 2>fire ahead coach mid season because you want to spark.

0:09:02.520 --> 0:09:04.679
<v Speaker 2>Firing your GM it doesn't make a lot of sense.

0:09:05.200 --> 0:09:08.319
<v Speaker 2>So why do I think Woody Johnson did it? And

0:09:08.440 --> 0:09:11.880
<v Speaker 2>here's where I feel badly for Jet fans because I

0:09:11.880 --> 0:09:14.400
<v Speaker 2>do believe Woody Johnson is gonna take a job with

0:09:14.480 --> 0:09:17.960
<v Speaker 2>the Trump administration like he did eight years ago, probably

0:09:18.000 --> 0:09:23.120
<v Speaker 2>ambassador to England once again, and when that happens, he

0:09:23.679 --> 0:09:27.320
<v Speaker 2>has to relinquish control of the team to his brother, Christopher.

0:09:29.080 --> 0:09:32.440
<v Speaker 2>I think what wood he is trying to do is

0:09:32.520 --> 0:09:35.800
<v Speaker 2>get a head start on everything as far as the

0:09:35.840 --> 0:09:40.240
<v Speaker 2>next head coach and the next GM, so he can

0:09:40.320 --> 0:09:45.560
<v Speaker 2>make those hires before he leaves. And that is going

0:09:45.640 --> 0:09:51.360
<v Speaker 2>to create such a terrible situation for the Jets because

0:09:52.160 --> 0:09:55.640
<v Speaker 2>that you're gonna have a new head coach, a new GM,

0:09:56.200 --> 0:10:00.240
<v Speaker 2>both potentially hired by a guy who now is no

0:10:00.280 --> 0:10:05.000
<v Speaker 2>longer in charge, and for the next four years Christopher's

0:10:05.080 --> 0:10:08.680
<v Speaker 2>gonna be there. Is he gonna want the people his

0:10:08.880 --> 0:10:13.120
<v Speaker 2>brother put in place? Are those people gonna feel like

0:10:13.360 --> 0:10:16.720
<v Speaker 2>who's the actual boss? Like? It's just a bad process.

0:10:17.280 --> 0:10:21.720
<v Speaker 2>What if Woody knows he's gonna take over an ambassadorship

0:10:22.679 --> 0:10:24.880
<v Speaker 2>to the United Kingdom like he did eight years ago,

0:10:25.240 --> 0:10:29.360
<v Speaker 2>then these should be Christopher's hires, because Christopher is gonna

0:10:29.400 --> 0:10:32.520
<v Speaker 2>be the one who oversees it. But it does not

0:10:32.679 --> 0:10:35.880
<v Speaker 2>appear that that's what's gonna happen. So that's bad news

0:10:35.880 --> 0:10:42.120
<v Speaker 2>for Jet fans. Now, the idea that wood he would

0:10:42.120 --> 0:10:46.520
<v Speaker 2>he I believe this reporting, Okay. I believe the reporting

0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:50.880
<v Speaker 2>that Woody Johnson went to Jeff Ulbrick last week and said,

0:10:50.920 --> 0:10:55.120
<v Speaker 2>you need to bench safety Tony Adams. I believe the

0:10:55.200 --> 0:11:01.840
<v Speaker 2>reporting that Woody Johnson gets ideas from fans on social

0:11:01.960 --> 0:11:05.839
<v Speaker 2>media and then brings them to the coaches and wants

0:11:05.840 --> 0:11:09.319
<v Speaker 2>them to implement it. And I believe the reporting that

0:11:09.360 --> 0:11:13.199
<v Speaker 2>Woody Johnson after week four wanted them to bench Aaron

0:11:13.280 --> 0:11:17.440
<v Speaker 2>Rodgers and then after week six wanted them to trade

0:11:17.440 --> 0:11:21.400
<v Speaker 2>for Aaron Rodgers Buddy Devonte Adams. Even though those two

0:11:21.480 --> 0:11:25.199
<v Speaker 2>things seem to be in conflict, it's because we have

0:11:25.320 --> 0:11:29.360
<v Speaker 2>no evidence whatsoever that Woody Johnson knows what he's doing. Now,

0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:33.920
<v Speaker 2>with all that said, as it turns out, benching Aaron

0:11:34.040 --> 0:11:38.319
<v Speaker 2>Rodgers would not have been the wrong decision. It would

0:11:38.320 --> 0:11:41.240
<v Speaker 2>have been real like now that we know what happened,

0:11:42.120 --> 0:11:45.679
<v Speaker 2>they wouldn't have been worse since he wanted to bench them.

0:11:45.679 --> 0:11:48.679
<v Speaker 2>They've lost six of seven, they fired their coach, they

0:11:48.720 --> 0:11:52.199
<v Speaker 2>fired their GM and one of the benefits of if

0:11:52.240 --> 0:11:55.520
<v Speaker 2>they would have benched Aaron Rodgers for Tyrod Taylor, they

0:11:55.559 --> 0:11:59.520
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't have traded for Devonte Adams, and that Devonte Adams

0:11:59.600 --> 0:12:02.679
<v Speaker 2>trade is now gonna end up being the worst trade

0:12:02.679 --> 0:12:07.000
<v Speaker 2>of the NFL season. That's gonna be around the seventieth

0:12:07.040 --> 0:12:11.280
<v Speaker 2>pick that they gave up for a dozen games of Davante,

0:12:11.520 --> 0:12:14.520
<v Speaker 2>dozen unproductive games of Vante Adams for a bad team.

0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:22.839
<v Speaker 2>They gave up for Davante the same almost exactly same

0:12:22.920 --> 0:12:28.280
<v Speaker 2>exact pick the Titans gave up for Lagerius Snead. They

0:12:28.320 --> 0:12:34.320
<v Speaker 2>got Sneed in his prime long contract. Because the Chiefs

0:12:34.360 --> 0:12:37.480
<v Speaker 2>are gonna have the Titans third round pick this upcoming

0:12:37.559 --> 0:12:40.680
<v Speaker 2>year right now that's projected to be picked sixty eight.

0:12:41.360 --> 0:12:44.080
<v Speaker 2>The Raiders are gonna get the jets upcoming third round

0:12:44.080 --> 0:12:46.960
<v Speaker 2>pick right now that's projected to be picked seventy. So

0:12:47.000 --> 0:12:50.960
<v Speaker 2>it's the same thing, like that's a disastrous trade. But

0:12:51.120 --> 0:12:56.160
<v Speaker 2>then this does The other reporting is that the Jets

0:12:56.160 --> 0:13:00.360
<v Speaker 2>don't want Aaron back next year. Okay, now there is

0:13:00.440 --> 0:13:04.160
<v Speaker 2>a little The other thing I'd be worried about if

0:13:04.160 --> 0:13:09.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm a Jet fan is this because it it what again?

0:13:09.200 --> 0:13:12.920
<v Speaker 2>Further reporting is that Aaron is actually really close with

0:13:13.040 --> 0:13:20.200
<v Speaker 2>Christopher does Aaron slow play will I or won't I

0:13:20.360 --> 0:13:24.640
<v Speaker 2>retire to try to prevent the Jets from cutting him

0:13:25.480 --> 0:13:30.120
<v Speaker 2>until Christopher takes over and then be like, no, I

0:13:30.160 --> 0:13:32.480
<v Speaker 2>want to come back and see if he can lean

0:13:32.559 --> 0:13:35.880
<v Speaker 2>on that relationship as a reason they don't cut him,

0:13:36.320 --> 0:13:42.120
<v Speaker 2>Because if they cut him, who is signing up demonsee

0:13:42.120 --> 0:13:46.839
<v Speaker 2>for Aaron Rodgers next year? Would Aaron Rodgers have a

0:13:46.880 --> 0:13:51.000
<v Speaker 2>single team in the league that says we want you

0:13:51.080 --> 0:13:53.920
<v Speaker 2>to be our Week one starter. I don't think so.

0:13:57.400 --> 0:14:02.080
<v Speaker 2>I got Here's like, I gotta think the third are

0:14:02.160 --> 0:14:06.320
<v Speaker 2>gonna draft a quarterback? Yeah? Like so, I I went

0:14:06.360 --> 0:14:10.480
<v Speaker 2>through it yesterday on the show, and we can we

0:14:10.559 --> 0:14:14.800
<v Speaker 2>can quickly do it here if we take the most

0:14:15.280 --> 0:14:20.560
<v Speaker 2>liberal view of what teams might be in the quarterback

0:14:20.600 --> 0:14:25.480
<v Speaker 2>business next year. Okay, AFC East, none of those teams

0:14:26.200 --> 0:14:28.760
<v Speaker 2>allen to a Drake may Or locked and the Jets

0:14:28.800 --> 0:14:35.920
<v Speaker 2>are This is under the assumption the Jets have cut Aaron, AFC, North, Ravens, Bengals,

0:14:36.040 --> 0:14:42.200
<v Speaker 2>no Browns. Maybe, But when the Browns are still dealing

0:14:42.200 --> 0:14:45.200
<v Speaker 2>with the Deshaun Watson thing, I don't think they're all

0:14:45.240 --> 0:14:46.840
<v Speaker 2>of a sudden gonna be like we're gonna bring in

0:14:46.880 --> 0:14:53.360
<v Speaker 2>another expensive old quarterback like so cross them out. Steelers

0:14:54.720 --> 0:14:59.080
<v Speaker 2>are an intriguing one only in this regard, neither Russ

0:14:59.080 --> 0:15:02.400
<v Speaker 2>nor Fields are on the contract for next year, so

0:15:03.240 --> 0:15:05.520
<v Speaker 2>they don't have their quarterback.

0:15:05.120 --> 0:15:08.920
<v Speaker 3>Under Rouns like I don't think Mike Aaron Rodgers.

0:15:08.960 --> 0:15:12.000
<v Speaker 2>Not after what's happened this year. I agree with you entirely.

0:15:12.360 --> 0:15:15.320
<v Speaker 2>I think not after the way it's gone. I think

0:15:15.360 --> 0:15:18.080
<v Speaker 2>he would have once upon a time, but not at

0:15:18.080 --> 0:15:21.000
<v Speaker 2>this point. And I think their plans probably to bring

0:15:21.080 --> 0:15:24.480
<v Speaker 2>Russell Wilson back right so like so, now the AFC

0:15:24.520 --> 0:15:30.320
<v Speaker 2>North is out AFC South. The Jags and Texans have

0:15:30.440 --> 0:15:36.360
<v Speaker 2>committed to their quarterbacks. They're not available. Titans Colts. I

0:15:36.400 --> 0:15:38.880
<v Speaker 2>don't think the Colts are gonna pull the plug on

0:15:38.920 --> 0:15:41.960
<v Speaker 2>Anthony Richardson. I think they're now that they've gone back

0:15:42.000 --> 0:15:44.760
<v Speaker 2>to him. I think they're gonna give him next year

0:15:44.840 --> 0:15:50.000
<v Speaker 2>to see. The Titans are maybe Chargers Broncos. They all

0:15:50.000 --> 0:15:51.880
<v Speaker 2>think they you know, they all have their guy or

0:15:51.920 --> 0:15:55.920
<v Speaker 2>think they have their guy. The Raiders are going to

0:15:56.000 --> 0:16:00.440
<v Speaker 2>be in the quarterback business. Tom Brady's gonna have a

0:16:00.520 --> 0:16:04.640
<v Speaker 2>strong say in that. Do we think Tom Brady, with

0:16:04.840 --> 0:16:08.880
<v Speaker 2>everything he represents about leadership team, any of it is

0:16:08.880 --> 0:16:12.560
<v Speaker 2>gonna be like Aaron Rodgers is the guy. Absolutely not.

0:16:12.880 --> 0:16:19.800
<v Speaker 2>They're gonna draft a quarterback. So there's that NFC East, Philly, Washington,

0:16:19.920 --> 0:16:25.200
<v Speaker 2>Dallas all as their quarterbacks. The Giants need one. The Giants'

0:16:25.880 --> 0:16:30.560
<v Speaker 2>new regime is gonna draft a quarterback flat like like

0:16:30.600 --> 0:16:34.000
<v Speaker 2>they are not. They're not close enough and don't have

0:16:34.080 --> 0:16:36.320
<v Speaker 2>the like to be like, oh, we're Aaron Rodgers away,

0:16:36.400 --> 0:16:39.360
<v Speaker 2>So they're out. No one in the NFC North is

0:16:39.400 --> 0:16:43.080
<v Speaker 2>in the quarterback business. No one in the NFC West

0:16:43.160 --> 0:16:46.080
<v Speaker 2>is in the quarterback business. So then we go to

0:16:46.160 --> 0:16:51.440
<v Speaker 2>the NFC South. Atlanta's got two quarterbacks, Tampa's committed to Baker,

0:16:52.280 --> 0:16:57.240
<v Speaker 2>Saints Panthers. Panthers are drafting their guy. The Saints just

0:16:57.360 --> 0:17:02.360
<v Speaker 2>extended Derek Carr and they're in hell. So when we

0:17:02.440 --> 0:17:06.520
<v Speaker 2>go through the whole thing, Demons, there is one team

0:17:07.119 --> 0:17:11.679
<v Speaker 2>that maybe would be in the Aaron Rodgers business. The

0:17:11.760 --> 0:17:17.080
<v Speaker 2>Tennessee Titans the only team, and I think that would

0:17:17.160 --> 0:17:19.920
<v Speaker 2>be crazy. I think the Titans need to be honest

0:17:19.920 --> 0:17:22.600
<v Speaker 2>about where they are. They're not Aaron and Aaron Rodgers

0:17:22.600 --> 0:17:25.080
<v Speaker 2>away and he's not that good. So I say all

0:17:25.080 --> 0:17:30.879
<v Speaker 2>that to say this, Even everyone's like, will Aaron retire,

0:17:33.000 --> 0:17:37.399
<v Speaker 2>I think gonna. It's gonna be a forced retirement. I

0:17:37.400 --> 0:17:39.439
<v Speaker 2>don't think there is going to be a team that

0:17:39.520 --> 0:17:42.440
<v Speaker 2>wants him as the Week one starter. I do think

0:17:42.520 --> 0:17:48.359
<v Speaker 2>there's a possibility that there is a team next year

0:17:48.480 --> 0:17:55.080
<v Speaker 2>during the season, if a quarterback gets injured, that a

0:17:55.240 --> 0:17:57.960
<v Speaker 2>really good team. The example I used on the show

0:17:58.080 --> 0:18:01.560
<v Speaker 2>yesterday was a team, say a team that's in the

0:18:01.600 --> 0:18:05.320
<v Speaker 2>position the Lions are right now, we're rolling, we can

0:18:05.400 --> 0:18:07.920
<v Speaker 2>win the Super Bowl. We have a great roster all

0:18:07.960 --> 0:18:12.760
<v Speaker 2>around it. That quarterback gets hurt, would that team potentially

0:18:12.880 --> 0:18:17.160
<v Speaker 2>call him? Maybe, But he hasn't put good tape out

0:18:17.200 --> 0:18:20.919
<v Speaker 2>there in three years. He obviously is not a leader,

0:18:21.359 --> 0:18:25.879
<v Speaker 2>he's obviously not accountable. So yes, the Jets thing's a disaster.

0:18:26.600 --> 0:18:29.520
<v Speaker 2>I also think we're watching the very end of Aaron Rodgers'

0:18:29.520 --> 0:18:40.120
<v Speaker 2>career and it is a nondescript, sad, self inflicted ending.

0:18:40.560 --> 0:18:43.760
<v Speaker 2>And so that's where I think we are with the Jets.

0:18:44.200 --> 0:18:46.399
<v Speaker 2>And I'm gonna say one other thing on this Demansey,

0:18:46.960 --> 0:18:50.639
<v Speaker 2>I'm totally fine with if that fifteen minutes right there

0:18:50.960 --> 0:18:53.080
<v Speaker 2>is the last we talk about the Jets. This year.

0:18:53.880 --> 0:18:56.560
<v Speaker 2>I don't need any more victory. Laps I was right.

0:18:56.920 --> 0:18:59.639
<v Speaker 2>Almost everyone else in the media was wrong. I'm fine

0:18:59.640 --> 0:19:05.800
<v Speaker 2>with it. Right, Like, there is a real soft skill

0:19:06.240 --> 0:19:11.000
<v Speaker 2>to being an NFL quarterback that involves leadership, that involves

0:19:11.040 --> 0:19:15.879
<v Speaker 2>taking accountability, that involves being there for your teammates, and

0:19:15.920 --> 0:19:19.080
<v Speaker 2>a hard skill of being an NFL quarterback that involves

0:19:19.680 --> 0:19:24.200
<v Speaker 2>being able to move, having two functioning achilles, still being

0:19:24.240 --> 0:19:28.040
<v Speaker 2>the player you once were, and Aaron goes over on

0:19:28.160 --> 0:19:31.960
<v Speaker 2>all of them. So we're listen, we're talking about if

0:19:32.000 --> 0:19:34.520
<v Speaker 2>Wood he's gonna take a job in the Trump administration,

0:19:35.000 --> 0:19:38.760
<v Speaker 2>maybe that maybe Aaron gets the ambassadorship to Peru and

0:19:38.800 --> 0:19:44.600
<v Speaker 2>can become America's foremost ayahuasca expert. But his career as

0:19:44.640 --> 0:19:48.920
<v Speaker 2>a relevant NFL player has a half dozen games left.

0:19:49.400 --> 0:19:54.000
<v Speaker 2>That's where we're at, all right, let's go to the

0:19:54.080 --> 0:19:55.080
<v Speaker 2>tiers if we can.

0:19:56.400 --> 0:19:59.200
<v Speaker 3>Yes, So the Committee shocked America on first things First,

0:19:59.240 --> 0:20:03.240
<v Speaker 3>yesterday you guys put Buffalo, Buffalo at number one, Kansas

0:20:03.240 --> 0:20:07.640
<v Speaker 3>City's at number two. Did you guys do Mahomes Mountain Yeah?

0:20:08.160 --> 0:20:12.119
<v Speaker 2>Orse on Tuesday, that's on Tuesdays. Yeah, so I do

0:20:12.280 --> 0:20:13.560
<v Speaker 2>Mahomes are still number one.

0:20:14.240 --> 0:20:16.920
<v Speaker 3>Okay, so it doesn't still number.

0:20:16.720 --> 0:20:18.960
<v Speaker 2>One on Mahomes Mountain. What do you mean it doesn't

0:20:18.960 --> 0:20:19.400
<v Speaker 2>make sense?

0:20:19.520 --> 0:20:22.920
<v Speaker 3>Would make sense. Here's Josh Allen to be the number

0:20:22.960 --> 0:20:25.119
<v Speaker 3>one on Mahomes Mountain because he's well.

0:20:25.800 --> 0:20:30.240
<v Speaker 2>So here's the thing. So it's again, it's a rich tapestry.

0:20:30.280 --> 0:20:32.520
<v Speaker 2>It's not just record, it's not just head to head,

0:20:32.560 --> 0:20:37.320
<v Speaker 2>it's not just stats. It's a lot of things. Patrick

0:20:38.600 --> 0:20:43.520
<v Speaker 2>is in a position right now where on and then

0:20:43.560 --> 0:20:47.960
<v Speaker 2>we'll get to the tiers where in order for someone

0:20:48.160 --> 0:20:52.520
<v Speaker 2>else to have a legitimate claim that they are the

0:20:52.560 --> 0:20:56.480
<v Speaker 2>best quarterback in the league, I think they have to

0:20:57.440 --> 0:21:05.800
<v Speaker 2>pull off the triple crown this season, meaning they have

0:21:05.880 --> 0:21:10.040
<v Speaker 2>to win League MVP, they have to beat Patrick in

0:21:10.080 --> 0:21:12.960
<v Speaker 2>the postseason, and they have to win the Super Bowl

0:21:14.280 --> 0:21:18.320
<v Speaker 2>if Josh or Lamar or Burrow, but Burrow's not gonna

0:21:18.320 --> 0:21:21.639
<v Speaker 2>have the opportunity do any of those things, or do

0:21:22.840 --> 0:21:25.640
<v Speaker 2>all of those things. Pardon me. And then you want

0:21:25.640 --> 0:21:29.040
<v Speaker 2>to say, going into next season, this guy is the

0:21:29.080 --> 0:21:32.400
<v Speaker 2>best quarterback in football, so be it. I might disagree,

0:21:32.440 --> 0:21:37.399
<v Speaker 2>but it'll be a fair argument. But when one guy

0:21:37.800 --> 0:21:42.399
<v Speaker 2>is the two time defending Super Bowl champion, we have

0:21:42.560 --> 0:21:46.720
<v Speaker 2>seen him each of the last two years, play perfect

0:21:47.119 --> 0:21:51.920
<v Speaker 2>postseason football, and the team does still have the best

0:21:51.960 --> 0:21:56.280
<v Speaker 2>record in the league, and he is in the discussion

0:21:56.359 --> 0:21:59.199
<v Speaker 2>for the greatest in the history of the league. He

0:21:59.320 --> 0:22:02.320
<v Speaker 2>is going to stay at top. Mahomes mountain the tiers.

0:22:02.440 --> 0:22:05.960
<v Speaker 2>On the other hand, again, we do have a committee.

0:22:05.960 --> 0:22:08.359
<v Speaker 2>There's a lot of people that vote on this. I

0:22:08.680 --> 0:22:12.600
<v Speaker 2>made similar arguments for the Chiefs that I just made

0:22:12.600 --> 0:22:14.920
<v Speaker 2>for Mahomes, like they need to lose more to be

0:22:15.280 --> 0:22:18.840
<v Speaker 2>knocked off. The committee said, hey, Buffalo's looked better in

0:22:18.840 --> 0:22:21.359
<v Speaker 2>the last six weeks. They just beat him head to head.

0:22:21.640 --> 0:22:24.560
<v Speaker 2>They beat him by more than one score, which is

0:22:24.600 --> 0:22:26.600
<v Speaker 2>only the fifth time in one hundred and twenty four

0:22:26.720 --> 0:22:30.000
<v Speaker 2>career games for Mahomes. He got the Chiefs got beaten

0:22:30.080 --> 0:22:33.639
<v Speaker 2>by more than eight points, so they went atop the tiers.

0:22:33.640 --> 0:22:35.560
<v Speaker 2>But go ahead with the rest of your question. Sorry

0:22:35.560 --> 0:22:36.000
<v Speaker 2>about that.

0:22:37.640 --> 0:22:41.000
<v Speaker 3>Yes, if Patrick Mahomes came out and said that losing

0:22:41.080 --> 0:22:44.840
<v Speaker 3>is probably a good thing, do you expect the Chiefs

0:22:44.920 --> 0:22:47.760
<v Speaker 3>to come out and be better after the loss or

0:22:47.840 --> 0:22:50.160
<v Speaker 3>you convinced that the team that you've seen so far

0:22:50.720 --> 0:22:52.400
<v Speaker 3>is all that they need to win the chip?

0:22:54.160 --> 0:22:58.840
<v Speaker 2>Well, I mean, people, there's a lot of speculation. Oh Man,

0:22:59.520 --> 0:23:03.760
<v Speaker 2>bad news for the Panthers. Chiefs angry coming off the loss.

0:23:03.800 --> 0:23:08.119
<v Speaker 2>They're gonna roll the Panthers this week, probably not probably

0:23:08.160 --> 0:23:14.639
<v Speaker 2>win by like four. Like I I the the Chiefs

0:23:15.680 --> 0:23:20.119
<v Speaker 2>don't operate as if the objective is to blow the

0:23:20.200 --> 0:23:24.479
<v Speaker 2>other team out. And I know that can frustrate people,

0:23:24.560 --> 0:23:27.479
<v Speaker 2>and it's why people foolishly are saying the Lions are

0:23:27.480 --> 0:23:30.880
<v Speaker 2>the best team in the league because they do do that.

0:23:31.680 --> 0:23:38.200
<v Speaker 2>But the Chiefs use the first half of these games

0:23:39.160 --> 0:23:43.159
<v Speaker 2>to work on things and then trust that in the

0:23:43.200 --> 0:23:45.720
<v Speaker 2>second half of these games will slowly the fourth quarter

0:23:46.200 --> 0:23:48.640
<v Speaker 2>they are going to find a way to win. Now,

0:23:48.680 --> 0:23:53.080
<v Speaker 2>this week it bit them and they need to, you know,

0:23:53.720 --> 0:23:56.600
<v Speaker 2>look at what happened and why it happened. But even

0:23:56.720 --> 0:24:02.080
<v Speaker 2>this week, when the Bills went up with fourteen minutes left,

0:24:02.359 --> 0:24:06.040
<v Speaker 2>what did you instantly see the single best drive of

0:24:06.080 --> 0:24:08.800
<v Speaker 2>the chief season? Bang bang bang bang bang right down

0:24:08.880 --> 0:24:11.760
<v Speaker 2>the field, no resistance, touchdown. And I'm sure in that

0:24:11.760 --> 0:24:14.720
<v Speaker 2>moment they were like, okay, great down to defense gets

0:24:14.720 --> 0:24:17.080
<v Speaker 2>a stop, Pat gets the ball, we go win the game.

0:24:17.800 --> 0:24:20.679
<v Speaker 2>Devens didn't get the stop. They played with fire a

0:24:20.680 --> 0:24:23.520
<v Speaker 2>little too much in that game, starting with Patrick's first

0:24:23.560 --> 0:24:28.119
<v Speaker 2>interception on the first play of the game, and all

0:24:28.160 --> 0:24:29.800
<v Speaker 2>of a sudden, you're down by nine to two minutes

0:24:29.880 --> 0:24:33.879
<v Speaker 2>left and the game's over. As far as my level

0:24:33.920 --> 0:24:39.280
<v Speaker 2>of concern for Kansas City, it's nonexistent. They are while

0:24:39.359 --> 0:24:42.640
<v Speaker 2>other teams are now injuries are starting to pile up

0:24:43.119 --> 0:24:46.240
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs in the next two weeks. Get Isaiah Pacheco back,

0:24:46.920 --> 0:24:49.720
<v Speaker 2>Get Charles amenehu Bak, who hasn't played since the playoffs

0:24:49.800 --> 0:24:53.439
<v Speaker 2>last year. There are now rumblings they are going to

0:24:53.440 --> 0:24:57.359
<v Speaker 2>get Hollywood Brown before the end of the regular season.

0:24:57.400 --> 0:25:00.440
<v Speaker 2>He hasn't played with them at all. And I have

0:25:00.520 --> 0:25:05.800
<v Speaker 2>more weapons and better offensively. And the other reason I

0:25:05.880 --> 0:25:09.000
<v Speaker 2>am not worried about the Chiefs at all is I

0:25:09.200 --> 0:25:13.760
<v Speaker 2>simply think the Mahomes interceptions are going to go away

0:25:13.920 --> 0:25:19.800
<v Speaker 2>come the postseason, because they always do. And the sneaky,

0:25:19.920 --> 0:25:25.520
<v Speaker 2>most important and craziest stat of this NFL season, Demons,

0:25:25.760 --> 0:25:33.159
<v Speaker 2>is the following. There are ten teams who have a

0:25:33.359 --> 0:25:37.840
<v Speaker 2>minus five or worse turnover differential in the NFL this year.

0:25:38.359 --> 0:25:46.480
<v Speaker 2>Ten teams. Okay, they those ten teams currently have the

0:25:46.520 --> 0:25:49.800
<v Speaker 2>worst record in the league, the second worst record, the

0:25:49.840 --> 0:25:53.760
<v Speaker 2>third worst record, the fourth worst record, the fifth worst record,

0:25:54.040 --> 0:25:57.920
<v Speaker 2>the sixth worst record, the eighth worst record, the ninth

0:25:57.960 --> 0:26:02.320
<v Speaker 2>worst record, and then Seattle which is five hundred, and

0:26:02.400 --> 0:26:04.760
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs, which have the best record in the NFL.

0:26:05.840 --> 0:26:09.080
<v Speaker 2>So let me say that again. Every team in the

0:26:09.160 --> 0:26:12.680
<v Speaker 2>league that has a plus minus of minus five or worse,

0:26:13.280 --> 0:26:17.199
<v Speaker 2>there's ten of them. Eight of them are eight of

0:26:17.240 --> 0:26:19.879
<v Speaker 2>the nine worst teams in the league, all two or

0:26:19.920 --> 0:26:25.160
<v Speaker 2>three win teams. And then the outlier is Seattle, which

0:26:25.200 --> 0:26:29.080
<v Speaker 2>despite the turnover differential, is five hundred. And then the

0:26:29.200 --> 0:26:32.680
<v Speaker 2>super outlier is the Chiefs, which are nine to one.

0:26:33.640 --> 0:26:37.520
<v Speaker 2>So they are they have played one of the toughest schedules,

0:26:37.760 --> 0:26:40.960
<v Speaker 2>they have the best record, and they're doing it despite

0:26:41.000 --> 0:26:44.359
<v Speaker 2>the fact they aren't forcing turnovers and they're turning the

0:26:44.400 --> 0:26:47.640
<v Speaker 2>ball over like crazy. Now some would say, oh, well,

0:26:47.640 --> 0:26:50.040
<v Speaker 2>that's gonna bite you in the playoffs, but they don't

0:26:50.080 --> 0:26:52.439
<v Speaker 2>turn the ball. Patrick doesn't turn the ball over in

0:26:52.480 --> 0:26:57.200
<v Speaker 2>the playoffs. Since the last time they lost a playoff game.

0:26:57.560 --> 0:27:02.280
<v Speaker 2>He's played seven he has one one turnover, and so

0:27:03.000 --> 0:27:08.960
<v Speaker 2>I just I I'm not concerned. What do you mean.

0:27:13.280 --> 0:27:15.240
<v Speaker 3>Higher than of the past.

0:27:16.560 --> 0:27:20.040
<v Speaker 2>It's not that much higher than last year. So that's

0:27:20.080 --> 0:27:24.399
<v Speaker 2>the thing people like I would be concerned if we

0:27:24.480 --> 0:27:28.800
<v Speaker 2>didn't see last year. And by the way, last year

0:27:29.280 --> 0:27:37.159
<v Speaker 2>this also applied. Last regular season, the Chiefs had the

0:27:37.200 --> 0:27:40.960
<v Speaker 2>fifth worst plus minus of any team in the league.

0:27:41.320 --> 0:27:45.360
<v Speaker 2>They were minus eleven. The other teams that were minus

0:27:45.400 --> 0:27:49.520
<v Speaker 2>eleven or worse were the Commanders who were awful, Minnesota

0:27:49.560 --> 0:27:54.440
<v Speaker 2>who was mediocre, the Falcons who were awful, and the Patriots,

0:27:54.840 --> 0:27:57.920
<v Speaker 2>who were third worst record in the league. And then

0:27:57.960 --> 0:28:02.720
<v Speaker 2>there's the Chiefs at minus tied with New England last year.

0:28:02.880 --> 0:28:05.879
<v Speaker 2>And then what happened in the playoffs. They stopped. They

0:28:05.960 --> 0:28:13.119
<v Speaker 2>stopped because Patrick stopped. And so there is. Last year's

0:28:13.200 --> 0:28:16.640
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs team was not good offensively. This year's Chiefs team

0:28:16.720 --> 0:28:17.880
<v Speaker 2>is good but not great.

0:28:18.160 --> 0:28:21.119
<v Speaker 3>Thinks like that wide receiver room was pretty bad and

0:28:21.200 --> 0:28:24.080
<v Speaker 3>now he's got better weapons, so I feel like should

0:28:24.119 --> 0:28:25.639
<v Speaker 3>be less likely to throw more paces.

0:28:25.920 --> 0:28:29.080
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how much better weapons he has this

0:28:29.200 --> 0:28:35.280
<v Speaker 2>year as presently constituted, so like like, and by the

0:28:35.320 --> 0:28:39.360
<v Speaker 2>DeAndre Hopkins is been an awesome addition, and the Chiefs

0:28:39.440 --> 0:28:43.000
<v Speaker 2>offense has looked really good since they added DeAndre Hopkins.

0:28:43.320 --> 0:28:45.760
<v Speaker 2>So the I mean in Mahomes's numbers are way better

0:28:45.840 --> 0:28:50.360
<v Speaker 2>since they added DeAndre Hopkins. Xavier Worthy will be a

0:28:50.400 --> 0:28:53.160
<v Speaker 2>good player if he stays healthy, but he's a rookie

0:28:53.200 --> 0:28:56.080
<v Speaker 2>wide receiver going through growing pains. And I want to

0:28:56.080 --> 0:28:59.320
<v Speaker 2>make this clear. Patrick has not played that well. His

0:28:59.320 --> 0:29:03.160
<v Speaker 2>footwork's it's been weird. He's had bad turnovers and more

0:29:03.200 --> 0:29:07.600
<v Speaker 2>games than not. I just and so if the Chiefs

0:29:07.640 --> 0:29:12.080
<v Speaker 2>get this level of play from Patrick Mahomes, they can

0:29:12.240 --> 0:29:15.920
<v Speaker 2>win the super Bowl, but it'll be a dogfight. But

0:29:16.160 --> 0:29:20.160
<v Speaker 2>if they get playoff Patrick Mahomes, which they do every

0:29:20.200 --> 0:29:23.920
<v Speaker 2>single year, then they're far and away by a mile,

0:29:24.000 --> 0:29:28.040
<v Speaker 2>the best team in the league. All right, next, Yeah,

0:29:28.080 --> 0:29:28.640
<v Speaker 2>so you've.

0:29:28.440 --> 0:29:30.840
<v Speaker 3>Been on an island when it comes to Lamar. Everybody

0:29:30.880 --> 0:29:34.160
<v Speaker 3>loves him, you see right through, I guess. And you

0:29:34.240 --> 0:29:36.600
<v Speaker 3>also find yourself being the most pro Bills guy and

0:29:37.000 --> 0:29:40.440
<v Speaker 3>anointing Josh Allen and the Bills. I'm so weird timing

0:29:40.960 --> 0:29:44.160
<v Speaker 3>Josh Allen just passed Lamar Jackson for the MVP race.

0:29:45.000 --> 0:29:46.720
<v Speaker 3>How far are you willing to take this? Or you

0:29:47.120 --> 0:29:48.560
<v Speaker 3>are you willing to take it as far as saying

0:29:48.560 --> 0:29:50.240
<v Speaker 3>that Josh Allen will win the NFL.

0:29:50.040 --> 0:29:54.280
<v Speaker 2>MVP right now, he's the deserving favorite. Listen to me,

0:29:54.400 --> 0:29:57.280
<v Speaker 2>the top two guys should be him and Saquon. I

0:29:57.280 --> 0:30:03.040
<v Speaker 2>think Saquan's reinvented that Eagles team and Saquan's numbers are unbelievable.

0:30:03.280 --> 0:30:05.760
<v Speaker 2>And he also has had a seven or eight touchdowns

0:30:05.880 --> 0:30:09.440
<v Speaker 2>sniped from him. But did you see this nine times

0:30:09.440 --> 0:30:13.880
<v Speaker 2>this year, Demons, he has ran the ball to the

0:30:13.920 --> 0:30:19.000
<v Speaker 2>one yard line and eight of the nine the next

0:30:19.040 --> 0:30:22.960
<v Speaker 2>play was a Jalen Hurts toush push Like so, I

0:30:22.960 --> 0:30:25.840
<v Speaker 2>mean there has just been so he is not He

0:30:25.880 --> 0:30:29.000
<v Speaker 2>could have seventeen eighteen touchdowns this year he has ten.

0:30:29.480 --> 0:30:32.120
<v Speaker 2>He could have, you know, a bunch more so. I

0:30:32.120 --> 0:30:35.120
<v Speaker 2>think Saquan's been unbelievable. Josh has been great, and in

0:30:35.160 --> 0:30:37.520
<v Speaker 2>the biggest game of the NFL season, Josh made the

0:30:37.520 --> 0:30:43.080
<v Speaker 2>game winning play like the So, I I got a

0:30:43.120 --> 0:30:47.960
<v Speaker 2>little annoyed on the TV show the other day because

0:30:49.040 --> 0:30:54.120
<v Speaker 2>uh Wilde said, my Bills takes are confusing, and I said,

0:30:54.160 --> 0:30:59.280
<v Speaker 2>it's actually not confusing at all. It's very very consistent

0:30:59.480 --> 0:31:04.200
<v Speaker 2>every single year. My opinion on the Buffalo Bills every

0:31:04.320 --> 0:31:07.680
<v Speaker 2>year I've been on TV has been one thing, and

0:31:07.680 --> 0:31:12.280
<v Speaker 2>one thing only, the correct opinion, Like that's what it's

0:31:12.320 --> 0:31:16.000
<v Speaker 2>It's not confusing at all. It's just I'm right. So

0:31:16.160 --> 0:31:19.520
<v Speaker 2>when everyone thinks the Bills, you know, three years ago,

0:31:19.680 --> 0:31:24.200
<v Speaker 2>are this unstoppable juggernaut, I said no, they're a good

0:31:24.280 --> 0:31:29.160
<v Speaker 2>but not great team. Last year, when folks said this

0:31:29.400 --> 0:31:33.240
<v Speaker 2>is the year that they're going to, you know, get

0:31:33.400 --> 0:31:35.960
<v Speaker 2>Kansas City, they've got it in Buffalo, I said, no,

0:31:36.240 --> 0:31:39.080
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs have another gear. They'll get them. Two years

0:31:39.160 --> 0:31:43.520
<v Speaker 2>ago when everyone said it's Mahomes and Allan, Allan Mahomes,

0:31:43.880 --> 0:31:47.640
<v Speaker 2>and I said, I think you're forgetting Joe Burrow in

0:31:47.720 --> 0:31:51.240
<v Speaker 2>this equation. Joe Burrow then played Allan in the playoffs.

0:31:51.280 --> 0:31:54.880
<v Speaker 2>He played great, Alan played poorly and beat him. This year,

0:31:54.960 --> 0:31:59.160
<v Speaker 2>when I said, you guys are drastically overrating the importance

0:31:59.160 --> 0:32:02.360
<v Speaker 2>of Stefan, Didy, Biggs, Hide and player, and this Bills

0:32:02.400 --> 0:32:05.240
<v Speaker 2>team is not gonna have to worry about the Jets

0:32:05.240 --> 0:32:07.960
<v Speaker 2>in that division. They're clearly the best team, and the

0:32:08.000 --> 0:32:10.840
<v Speaker 2>Bills are the second best team in the AFC. I've

0:32:10.840 --> 0:32:14.040
<v Speaker 2>been right again, and so this would be a year

0:32:14.520 --> 0:32:20.600
<v Speaker 2>that Josh deserves legitimate MVP consideration, unlike previous years when

0:32:20.640 --> 0:32:25.120
<v Speaker 2>it's been in my opinion, what people are actually doing

0:32:25.160 --> 0:32:29.480
<v Speaker 2>with Lamar this year, which is only discussing his great

0:32:29.560 --> 0:32:33.560
<v Speaker 2>games and trying to ignore the times he's struggled. That's

0:32:33.600 --> 0:32:36.400
<v Speaker 2>what we've done with Allen in the past. This year,

0:32:36.920 --> 0:32:39.600
<v Speaker 2>he's been the engine. He's been smarter with the ball.

0:32:39.960 --> 0:32:43.240
<v Speaker 2>He doesn't have great weapons, he has run the ball

0:32:43.320 --> 0:32:48.960
<v Speaker 2>more judiciously, but just as effectively. So yeah, like Josh,

0:32:48.960 --> 0:32:53.320
<v Speaker 2>Allen's been playing the quarterback position better than anyone in

0:32:53.360 --> 0:32:56.840
<v Speaker 2>football this year. His team's got the second best record

0:32:56.840 --> 0:33:01.760
<v Speaker 2>in the conference. That that's usually how you win lead and.

0:33:01.680 --> 0:33:03.560
<v Speaker 3>So you get on top of Mahomes Mountain.

0:33:03.600 --> 0:33:08.440
<v Speaker 2>Though no, again, it's a rich tapestry. And I do

0:33:08.560 --> 0:33:12.800
<v Speaker 2>have to tell you, like if it were called Allen's Alps,

0:33:13.280 --> 0:33:16.040
<v Speaker 2>then maybe he would have a stronger case. But it's

0:33:16.120 --> 0:33:18.920
<v Speaker 2>quite hard to knock the name's sake off the top

0:33:18.960 --> 0:33:21.400
<v Speaker 2>of the mountain. I mean, it just it just is

0:33:22.160 --> 0:33:24.880
<v Speaker 2>all right. Last one demonse, Uh so you.

0:33:24.840 --> 0:33:29.160
<v Speaker 3>Declare yourself NFC bachelor and things are getting pretty serious.

0:33:29.680 --> 0:33:32.239
<v Speaker 3>And now it's down to two teams. The winner of

0:33:32.320 --> 0:33:37.000
<v Speaker 3>Philly and the Rams will win your heart. Bachelor, Nick,

0:33:37.480 --> 0:33:39.560
<v Speaker 3>please make your decision. Who wins your heart?

0:33:39.600 --> 0:33:43.920
<v Speaker 2>Sunday. Oh that's a heck of a background. You've got there.

0:33:44.640 --> 0:33:48.040
<v Speaker 2>So here's the deal. I'm actually not gonna make a

0:33:48.080 --> 0:33:51.200
<v Speaker 2>prediction for this game. I'm gonna tell you what I'm

0:33:51.280 --> 0:33:54.640
<v Speaker 2>rooting for, though, So so I let me back up

0:33:54.720 --> 0:33:57.680
<v Speaker 2>in case the audience hasn't been following this demonsey on

0:33:57.720 --> 0:34:01.440
<v Speaker 2>the TV show. So my preseason pick was obviously the Bears,

0:34:02.280 --> 0:34:06.920
<v Speaker 2>and they're cooked. And they fired their offensive coordinator and

0:34:07.040 --> 0:34:09.400
<v Speaker 2>Caleb up until this past week and have been struggling,

0:34:09.480 --> 0:34:12.920
<v Speaker 2>and so they're cooked. So I've admitted defeat on that.

0:34:13.400 --> 0:34:19.279
<v Speaker 2>But I have to pick another team and I so

0:34:19.480 --> 0:34:22.239
<v Speaker 2>let's just go through the potential teams that didn't make

0:34:22.239 --> 0:34:26.880
<v Speaker 2>the final cut. Washington is slowing down a bit. Jaden

0:34:26.920 --> 0:34:29.240
<v Speaker 2>hasn't been the same guy since his ribs got cracked.

0:34:29.440 --> 0:34:33.200
<v Speaker 2>I don't really tough trust Kingsbury, so take them out.

0:34:33.400 --> 0:34:36.520
<v Speaker 2>The Packers I think have been a little smoke and

0:34:36.600 --> 0:34:39.560
<v Speaker 2>mirrors lately. I think they're good, but they're not gonna

0:34:39.600 --> 0:34:43.480
<v Speaker 2>win three consecutive playoff games all on the road, so

0:34:44.120 --> 0:34:47.720
<v Speaker 2>take them out. Obviously, no team from the NFC South

0:34:47.800 --> 0:34:51.920
<v Speaker 2>can do it. And in the NFC West, the Niners,

0:34:52.560 --> 0:34:55.759
<v Speaker 2>I think you're gonna miss the playoffs. The Cardinals are

0:34:55.800 --> 0:34:58.520
<v Speaker 2>a hell of a story, but they're not winning three

0:34:58.560 --> 0:35:03.040
<v Speaker 2>straight playoff games. Like, so, who's left? Who's left is

0:35:03.120 --> 0:35:09.640
<v Speaker 2>the Lions, the Eagles, and the Rams. Well, the Lions

0:35:09.920 --> 0:35:14.160
<v Speaker 2>a it would feel a little front running b coach

0:35:14.239 --> 0:35:17.719
<v Speaker 2>and Greg already picked them and C and I know

0:35:17.840 --> 0:35:21.040
<v Speaker 2>Lions fans very mad at me about this. I don't

0:35:21.120 --> 0:35:27.279
<v Speaker 2>fully trust Jared Goff, So they are They're out. So

0:35:27.360 --> 0:35:30.400
<v Speaker 2>then we have the Eagles in the Rams. Now the Rams.

0:35:31.080 --> 0:35:33.319
<v Speaker 2>I have abandon the Bears. They're four and six. The

0:35:33.400 --> 0:35:36.680
<v Speaker 2>Rams are only five and five. The Rams might not

0:35:36.800 --> 0:35:41.320
<v Speaker 2>even make the playoffs. However, they've won four out of five.

0:35:42.400 --> 0:35:46.520
<v Speaker 2>Stafford when he's got both his receivers is just deadly.

0:35:47.080 --> 0:35:50.960
<v Speaker 2>They crushed the draft on that defensive line with Verse

0:35:51.040 --> 0:35:54.839
<v Speaker 2>and Fisk, and they get pressure on the quarterback. Now

0:35:54.880 --> 0:35:59.399
<v Speaker 2>that their offensive lines getting healthier, they're dangerous. Mcveigh's as

0:35:59.440 --> 0:36:01.960
<v Speaker 2>good of a co coach as there is in that conference.

0:36:03.200 --> 0:36:07.640
<v Speaker 2>The Eagles. It's a weird spot because I don't trust

0:36:07.680 --> 0:36:11.560
<v Speaker 2>the coach at all, and I only kind of trust

0:36:11.600 --> 0:36:17.280
<v Speaker 2>the quarterback. But the defense went from awful to really

0:36:17.320 --> 0:36:21.439
<v Speaker 2>good with Fangio and his additions. I didn't think they'd

0:36:21.480 --> 0:36:24.240
<v Speaker 2>be able to do it when the receivers are healthy

0:36:24.640 --> 0:36:27.440
<v Speaker 2>and Jalen is willing to run the ball as he

0:36:27.560 --> 0:36:30.000
<v Speaker 2>is more this year than last year. That's how that

0:36:30.040 --> 0:36:33.480
<v Speaker 2>offense gets to twenty twenty two offense. Jalen hurts with

0:36:33.560 --> 0:36:36.760
<v Speaker 2>some Reid option stuff, Jalen Hurts running the ball, Tush

0:36:36.840 --> 0:36:40.440
<v Speaker 2>push cooking, and then deep shots to aj Brown who's

0:36:40.560 --> 0:36:46.799
<v Speaker 2>just unbelievable. And Saquan has been a world changer. So

0:36:48.400 --> 0:36:53.320
<v Speaker 2>it's Eagles Rams. I'm rooting for the Rams this weekend.

0:36:54.120 --> 0:36:58.000
<v Speaker 2>I would rather have the Rams be my pick, but

0:36:58.080 --> 0:37:02.319
<v Speaker 2>if they lose and fall to five, and they're a

0:37:02.360 --> 0:37:06.080
<v Speaker 2>long shot just to make the playoffs, so I hope

0:37:06.120 --> 0:37:09.440
<v Speaker 2>the Rams win because I want to ride with the Rams.

0:37:10.040 --> 0:37:13.719
<v Speaker 2>But if they don't, Philly is positioned so well to

0:37:13.760 --> 0:37:16.360
<v Speaker 2>be at the very least the two seed, maybe the

0:37:16.400 --> 0:37:21.759
<v Speaker 2>one seed of Detroit falters, and they have such a

0:37:21.800 --> 0:37:24.160
<v Speaker 2>well put together roster right now. I don't know if

0:37:24.239 --> 0:37:27.800
<v Speaker 2>Sirianni would screw it up, and in a game management off,

0:37:27.920 --> 0:37:32.040
<v Speaker 2>Sirianni versus Dan Campbell is really not like Dan Campbell's

0:37:32.080 --> 0:37:35.040
<v Speaker 2>got some game management issues himself, so it wouldn't be

0:37:35.080 --> 0:37:37.759
<v Speaker 2>as much of a killer. So I'm not making a

0:37:37.760 --> 0:37:41.600
<v Speaker 2>pick for this game. I'm gonna, you know, let the

0:37:41.680 --> 0:37:44.600
<v Speaker 2>chips fall where they may. But the winner of this game,

0:37:44.719 --> 0:37:47.120
<v Speaker 2>I've got going to the super Bowl. That's what I'm

0:37:47.120 --> 0:37:50.600
<v Speaker 2>telling you. The winner gets my pick for the NFC

0:37:51.280 --> 0:37:53.600
<v Speaker 2>to play the Chiefs in the Super Bowl. I hope

0:37:53.600 --> 0:37:56.959
<v Speaker 2>it's Rams. I would love to be able to root

0:37:57.040 --> 0:38:00.200
<v Speaker 2>for the Rams the rest of the year and Ian

0:38:00.280 --> 0:38:03.439
<v Speaker 2>McVeigh in the Super Bowl would be dope. No, I'd

0:38:03.520 --> 0:38:06.239
<v Speaker 2>rather play Philly because if the Rams get to the

0:38:06.280 --> 0:38:11.760
<v Speaker 2>super Bowl, it means they are they started one and four, Yeah,

0:38:11.800 --> 0:38:13.920
<v Speaker 2>I mean it would mean they you know that they

0:38:13.920 --> 0:38:18.719
<v Speaker 2>would probably at that point of one gosh, twelve out

0:38:18.760 --> 0:38:23.399
<v Speaker 2>of fifteen to get there, like it and so and

0:38:23.719 --> 0:38:26.960
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs like either of these teams would present problems

0:38:27.000 --> 0:38:30.759
<v Speaker 2>for the Chief's second corner, whether it's Devonte Smith or

0:38:31.080 --> 0:38:34.160
<v Speaker 2>Cooper Cup that the Chief's number two corner has to

0:38:34.200 --> 0:38:36.480
<v Speaker 2>line up against. But I'll be rooting for the Rams,

0:38:37.120 --> 0:38:41.520
<v Speaker 2>all right. Quick break What's Right? Gambling Show Week twelve

0:38:41.640 --> 0:38:44.279
<v Speaker 2>to Monsey's weekly winning teaser, and I try to get

0:38:44.280 --> 0:38:51.240
<v Speaker 2>back on the winning track. That's next, What's truck Welcome

0:38:51.280 --> 0:38:54.080
<v Speaker 2>back in What's Right? With Nick right episode two eighty

0:38:54.160 --> 0:38:56.600
<v Speaker 2>Did I say two to seventy nine earlier? Whatever it is,

0:38:56.640 --> 0:39:00.480
<v Speaker 2>it's episode two eighty. Uh, all right, let's get this

0:39:00.600 --> 0:39:04.040
<v Speaker 2>over with the recap of last week's picks, because these

0:39:04.040 --> 0:39:06.560
<v Speaker 2>are bad, these bad picks. You should have talked me

0:39:06.600 --> 0:39:08.279
<v Speaker 2>out of some of these, Demanse, I mean, this is

0:39:08.280 --> 0:39:11.399
<v Speaker 2>a train wreck. One in four, worst week of the year.

0:39:12.040 --> 0:39:16.640
<v Speaker 2>Pittsburgh plus three against Baltimore. That worked. It was obvious

0:39:16.800 --> 0:39:19.760
<v Speaker 2>on a lot of fronts. There was a brief moment

0:39:19.760 --> 0:39:21.880
<v Speaker 2>where it looked like I could get screwed if Lamar

0:39:22.080 --> 0:39:24.080
<v Speaker 2>could have pulled off the two point conversion. Then all

0:39:24.120 --> 0:39:27.280
<v Speaker 2>of a sudden, It's goes to overtime and Baltimore winning

0:39:27.280 --> 0:39:31.080
<v Speaker 2>by six is available. The other picks, though, Atlanta plus

0:39:31.120 --> 0:39:33.840
<v Speaker 2>two and a half at Denver they got boat raced,

0:39:34.320 --> 0:39:39.239
<v Speaker 2>absolutely just destroyed. Cleveland minus won at New Orleans. That

0:39:39.280 --> 0:39:43.759
<v Speaker 2>game was fourteen to fourteen, Demonse, and then I look

0:39:43.880 --> 0:39:46.600
<v Speaker 2>up what go ahead? No?

0:39:46.760 --> 0:39:49.800
<v Speaker 3>They why that I had that in my blazing five.

0:39:50.400 --> 0:39:53.640
<v Speaker 3>It was tied fourteen to fourteen. I think the kicker

0:39:53.719 --> 0:39:56.680
<v Speaker 3>missed the field goal. There was a flag. He ends

0:39:56.760 --> 0:39:59.719
<v Speaker 3>up kicking another field goal, misses it. Oh, yeah, no,

0:39:59.800 --> 0:40:01.120
<v Speaker 3>that that game screwed me as well.

0:40:01.160 --> 0:40:04.040
<v Speaker 2>And then this and then the Saints scored twenty one

0:40:04.160 --> 0:40:09.160
<v Speaker 2>unanswered Kasom Hill looks like damn Walter Peyton seven carries

0:40:09.200 --> 0:40:11.440
<v Speaker 2>for a buck thirty eight, lose by twenty one. So

0:40:11.520 --> 0:40:14.479
<v Speaker 2>that's a disaster. New England plus four and a half

0:40:14.520 --> 0:40:19.680
<v Speaker 2>against the Rams they bad They lose by eight, but

0:40:19.719 --> 0:40:23.040
<v Speaker 2>that one was gross two and we've already talked Chiefs Buffalo.

0:40:23.440 --> 0:40:26.160
<v Speaker 2>So really just a train wreck of a week. There's

0:40:26.200 --> 0:40:31.319
<v Speaker 2>no there's no getting around it. And we're now, how

0:40:31.360 --> 0:40:34.360
<v Speaker 2>long has it been since I had a five and

0:40:34.400 --> 0:40:40.759
<v Speaker 2>oh fill geez, I think I had a Let me check.

0:40:40.800 --> 0:40:42.680
<v Speaker 2>I think I had a four and one earlier this

0:40:42.719 --> 0:40:45.120
<v Speaker 2>week or earlier this year. I can look it up

0:40:45.160 --> 0:40:48.799
<v Speaker 2>real quick because our guy, our graphics guys sends me,

0:40:49.320 --> 0:40:51.319
<v Speaker 2>let me see. No, I had a four and one

0:40:51.360 --> 0:40:57.120
<v Speaker 2>in week five five and oh three, Well that's last year.

0:40:57.560 --> 0:41:01.360
<v Speaker 2>I think it's twenty twenty two. I don't think I

0:41:01.360 --> 0:41:05.239
<v Speaker 2>had a five and o last year. Yeah, so this

0:41:05.360 --> 0:41:07.799
<v Speaker 2>is a disaster. There's no way around it. I mean,

0:41:07.840 --> 0:41:11.879
<v Speaker 2>there's no mincing words here. We're twenty six, twenty eight

0:41:11.920 --> 0:41:16.080
<v Speaker 2>and one on the year, which means we need to

0:41:16.120 --> 0:41:19.160
<v Speaker 2>go at least four and one this week just to

0:41:19.200 --> 0:41:23.320
<v Speaker 2>get above five hundred five and oh would get us

0:41:23.680 --> 0:41:28.960
<v Speaker 2>nearing profitability at the least. So let's back to the

0:41:29.000 --> 0:41:33.120
<v Speaker 2>basics here. Some of these games, I gotta be honest,

0:41:33.440 --> 0:41:37.080
<v Speaker 2>are some ugly, grimy games, but you gotta do what

0:41:37.120 --> 0:41:40.319
<v Speaker 2>you gotta do. And demon'say, we're starting with Thursday night

0:41:40.320 --> 0:41:42.640
<v Speaker 2>football or starting with the game tonight. Go ahead.

0:41:43.160 --> 0:41:45.359
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, we've got a Cleveland plus three and a half

0:41:45.440 --> 0:41:47.439
<v Speaker 3>versus Pittsburgh.

0:41:47.680 --> 0:41:50.479
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. So it looks like you don't love this one.

0:41:51.239 --> 0:41:55.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm just going I'm instituting a rule for the rest

0:41:55.800 --> 0:42:01.040
<v Speaker 2>of Knicks picks the rest of the year. AFC North

0:42:01.320 --> 0:42:07.000
<v Speaker 2>teams that are home dogs of at least three is

0:42:07.040 --> 0:42:10.799
<v Speaker 2>an auto fire the rest of the year. If it

0:42:10.880 --> 0:42:15.120
<v Speaker 2>is an AFC North again in a divisional matchup, if

0:42:15.120 --> 0:42:19.000
<v Speaker 2>it's AFC North versus AFC North and the home team

0:42:19.080 --> 0:42:22.520
<v Speaker 2>is getting at least three, I'm betting it. So I

0:42:22.560 --> 0:42:25.839
<v Speaker 2>think this is a potential letdown spot for Pittsburgh after

0:42:25.840 --> 0:42:29.440
<v Speaker 2>the last week's game. The total in this game is

0:42:29.520 --> 0:42:34.000
<v Speaker 2>only thirty seven points, which means it's gonna Vegas says

0:42:34.040 --> 0:42:38.320
<v Speaker 2>it's gonna be very low scoring, low scoring games. Getting

0:42:38.360 --> 0:42:43.200
<v Speaker 2>the points feels good. Cleveland not quite as bad as

0:42:43.239 --> 0:42:47.080
<v Speaker 2>the final score suggests from last week, because again that

0:42:47.120 --> 0:42:50.320
<v Speaker 2>game was fourteen to fourteen and then it got away

0:42:50.360 --> 0:42:54.319
<v Speaker 2>from him. This just feels like another ugly Pittsburgh win

0:42:55.120 --> 0:43:00.520
<v Speaker 2>sixteen thirteen, seventeen fourteen, something like that. I'm getting three

0:43:00.520 --> 0:43:05.760
<v Speaker 2>and a half AFC nor Thunderdogs cover sixty one percent

0:43:05.760 --> 0:43:08.280
<v Speaker 2>of the time against the spread over the last six years.

0:43:08.520 --> 0:43:11.920
<v Speaker 2>That's the best of any division Pittsburgh. I mean, it's

0:43:12.040 --> 0:43:15.080
<v Speaker 2>short week for both teams, obviously, but Pittsburgh maybe a

0:43:15.080 --> 0:43:18.440
<v Speaker 2>bit of an emotional letdown after the Ravens game. I

0:43:18.600 --> 0:43:21.960
<v Speaker 2>like Cleveland getting the points in this spot, so I'll

0:43:21.960 --> 0:43:25.239
<v Speaker 2>take Cleveland plus three and a half and Jamis for

0:43:25.320 --> 0:43:29.120
<v Speaker 2>them to only have scored fourteen points. Jamis did have

0:43:29.880 --> 0:43:33.319
<v Speaker 2>three hundred and ninety five passing yards and two touchdowns

0:43:33.320 --> 0:43:36.120
<v Speaker 2>in that Browns game, so he played well. He had

0:43:36.120 --> 0:43:39.480
<v Speaker 2>a bounce back game after his poor performance the week before.

0:43:39.840 --> 0:43:41.840
<v Speaker 2>I don't think he's gonna do that against Pittsburgh, but

0:43:41.880 --> 0:43:43.680
<v Speaker 2>I'll take Cleveland plus three and a half.

0:43:43.760 --> 0:43:47.200
<v Speaker 3>Next, you've got Tampa Bay minus five and a half

0:43:47.200 --> 0:43:47.920
<v Speaker 3>of the Giants.

0:43:49.520 --> 0:43:55.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so Tampa's coming off a bye. They had got

0:43:55.200 --> 0:43:58.600
<v Speaker 2>a little extra life for their season over the last

0:43:58.640 --> 0:44:01.120
<v Speaker 2>couple of weeks because of how how Atlanta has looked.

0:44:02.480 --> 0:44:05.800
<v Speaker 2>You know, Baker's gonna be sharp. They got more life

0:44:05.800 --> 0:44:07.839
<v Speaker 2>in that they I don't think they're gonna have Mike

0:44:07.840 --> 0:44:11.760
<v Speaker 2>Evans this week, but Mike Evans returned to practice. Maybe

0:44:11.760 --> 0:44:14.479
<v Speaker 2>they'll have them this week, but they they know he's

0:44:14.560 --> 0:44:19.359
<v Speaker 2>coming back. And the Giants, it's not just that they're

0:44:19.400 --> 0:44:24.920
<v Speaker 2>starting Tommy DeVito, it's that the team seems pissed about it.

0:44:25.560 --> 0:44:28.640
<v Speaker 2>One of their star defensive players came out and said, yeah,

0:44:28.640 --> 0:44:31.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm mad that we're not starting the best quarterback we

0:44:31.520 --> 0:44:35.080
<v Speaker 2>have in Daniel Jones. Drew Locke is pissed. He's like,

0:44:35.160 --> 0:44:37.640
<v Speaker 2>I signed here thinking I was gonna be the number two.

0:44:38.000 --> 0:44:42.000
<v Speaker 2>So I don't know what's happened. Tommy DeVito is we

0:44:42.080 --> 0:44:46.120
<v Speaker 2>saw him last year. Is the reason they won the games.

0:44:46.160 --> 0:44:50.239
<v Speaker 2>They won. Their defense and special teams crushed. It was

0:44:50.360 --> 0:44:53.800
<v Speaker 2>less about Tommy DeVito. He was more mean than production.

0:44:54.680 --> 0:44:59.200
<v Speaker 2>I don't mind laying this many points because I think

0:44:59.239 --> 0:45:02.040
<v Speaker 2>this is a game. Tampa jumps out to a ten

0:45:02.160 --> 0:45:05.160
<v Speaker 2>point lead, and holds on to it. I don't think

0:45:05.239 --> 0:45:08.840
<v Speaker 2>the Giants are a backdoor cover type of team at all.

0:45:09.200 --> 0:45:10.840
<v Speaker 2>I think they might be a let go of the

0:45:10.960 --> 0:45:14.800
<v Speaker 2>rope type of team. Now they've be bench Daniel Jones,

0:45:15.080 --> 0:45:17.960
<v Speaker 2>so this feels to me like a twenty seven to

0:45:18.000 --> 0:45:23.719
<v Speaker 2>ten type of Tampa Bay victory rested healthier off a

0:45:23.800 --> 0:45:28.600
<v Speaker 2>bye Tommy DeVito, but Danny DeVito wouldn't be much difference,

0:45:28.640 --> 0:45:33.839
<v Speaker 2>I would assume. And so yeah, Tampa Bay minus five

0:45:33.880 --> 0:45:37.280
<v Speaker 2>and a half and by the way, road favorites off

0:45:37.320 --> 0:45:40.759
<v Speaker 2>a bye laying this much seven and two against the

0:45:40.800 --> 0:45:43.520
<v Speaker 2>spread in their last nine, that doesn't mean that much

0:45:43.560 --> 0:45:45.600
<v Speaker 2>to me, But I just like Tampa in this spot.

0:45:45.760 --> 0:45:51.959
<v Speaker 3>Next, you got Tennessee plus eight at Houston, So this.

0:45:51.920 --> 0:45:56.000
<v Speaker 2>Is another one of those ugly ones. However, I don't

0:45:56.120 --> 0:46:02.880
<v Speaker 2>think Houston's offensive line is good to warrant them being

0:46:03.680 --> 0:46:07.680
<v Speaker 2>more than a touchdown favorite against a good defensive front,

0:46:08.280 --> 0:46:12.200
<v Speaker 2>and the Titans, for all their weaknesses, their biggest strength

0:46:12.560 --> 0:46:16.800
<v Speaker 2>is that defensive front. I know that Jeffrey Simmons hasn't

0:46:16.840 --> 0:46:19.120
<v Speaker 2>had quite the year that he's had in years past.

0:46:19.239 --> 0:46:23.400
<v Speaker 2>He's still awesome. Harold Landry's really good to Andre sweatsman

0:46:23.480 --> 0:46:25.879
<v Speaker 2>good as a rookie. There are a lot like that

0:46:26.160 --> 0:46:29.719
<v Speaker 2>is the part of this game where I think Tennessee

0:46:30.400 --> 0:46:34.040
<v Speaker 2>has a decided edge. They're gonna run Tony Pollard a lot,

0:46:34.040 --> 0:46:38.160
<v Speaker 2>They're gonna try to shorten the game. Houston is, you know,

0:46:38.360 --> 0:46:41.399
<v Speaker 2>off a bit of not not a huge but off

0:46:41.440 --> 0:46:44.920
<v Speaker 2>a bit of a short week. And I didn't think

0:46:45.320 --> 0:46:48.479
<v Speaker 2>even though they ended up blowing out Dallas, I didn't

0:46:48.480 --> 0:46:52.440
<v Speaker 2>think they looked overly impressive. You know, throughout the early

0:46:52.560 --> 0:46:57.360
<v Speaker 2>portions of that game. They you take out the Dallas game,

0:46:57.920 --> 0:47:00.319
<v Speaker 2>they not take out. But prior to the Dallas game,

0:47:00.600 --> 0:47:04.000
<v Speaker 2>their last four they lost to the Packers, they beat

0:47:04.040 --> 0:47:07.439
<v Speaker 2>the Colts by three. They lost to the Jets, which

0:47:07.560 --> 0:47:12.799
<v Speaker 2>is a flashing red alert. They lost to the Lions

0:47:12.840 --> 0:47:18.800
<v Speaker 2>despite golf throwing five picks. There's only been two games

0:47:18.920 --> 0:47:22.840
<v Speaker 2>all year they blew out the opponent, the game against

0:47:22.880 --> 0:47:27.400
<v Speaker 2>the Patriots six weeks ago and this Monday against Dallas.

0:47:27.440 --> 0:47:31.320
<v Speaker 2>And even again that game kind of became a blowout

0:47:31.400 --> 0:47:35.520
<v Speaker 2>on the rush, fumble, stripsack, fumble six. It's just too

0:47:35.520 --> 0:47:41.480
<v Speaker 2>many points. I don't think it's a divisional game. You're

0:47:41.480 --> 0:47:44.680
<v Speaker 2>gonna play the Titans again. Later in the year. I

0:47:44.840 --> 0:47:50.279
<v Speaker 2>like Tennessee plus eight feels like maybe twenty to fourteen,

0:47:50.480 --> 0:47:54.040
<v Speaker 2>twenty to seventeen type of game. I don't love it.

0:47:54.560 --> 0:47:59.359
<v Speaker 2>But the right side of this game is Tennessee plus eight.

0:48:00.080 --> 0:48:03.480
<v Speaker 2>And also Tennessee this past week, if you weren't watching,

0:48:04.040 --> 0:48:07.000
<v Speaker 2>they got a great stop on four fourth and goal.

0:48:07.520 --> 0:48:11.880
<v Speaker 2>It got wiped away due to a really awful, uh

0:48:13.760 --> 0:48:18.040
<v Speaker 2>defenseless receiver penalty where but when you look at the replay,

0:48:18.160 --> 0:48:20.840
<v Speaker 2>it was a totally clean hit to the player's chest

0:48:21.400 --> 0:48:25.160
<v Speaker 2>that flipped that game. Otherwise they're right there with the

0:48:25.280 --> 0:48:29.000
<v Speaker 2>Vikings in that spot. The Vikings are better than the Texans.

0:48:29.280 --> 0:48:30.680
<v Speaker 2>I like Tennessee plus eight.

0:48:30.800 --> 0:48:35.280
<v Speaker 3>Next Green Bay minus one and a half versus San fran.

0:48:36.640 --> 0:48:40.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. So this is the first time in Purdy's regular

0:48:40.360 --> 0:48:45.200
<v Speaker 2>season career he's been an underdog, which is a banana's stat,

0:48:45.239 --> 0:48:50.080
<v Speaker 2>but it's a true stat. I don't I if Nicky

0:48:50.120 --> 0:48:54.759
<v Speaker 2>Bosa is not playing, this Niners defense goes from mediocre

0:48:55.280 --> 0:48:59.080
<v Speaker 2>to awful, and I don't know that he's playing. And

0:48:59.239 --> 0:49:02.160
<v Speaker 2>try as he might, if Nicky bos is not gonna

0:49:02.160 --> 0:49:05.160
<v Speaker 2>be out there, he can't make the Niners defense great again.

0:49:05.239 --> 0:49:10.560
<v Speaker 2>Like he wants to, and so that concerns me. I

0:49:10.840 --> 0:49:14.440
<v Speaker 2>don't think the Niners offense has been as crisp of

0:49:14.480 --> 0:49:18.200
<v Speaker 2>an operation. Shockingly, when Christian mccaffery's out or not looking

0:49:18.239 --> 0:49:22.360
<v Speaker 2>like Christian McCaffrey, you know they don't look quite the same.

0:49:22.880 --> 0:49:26.279
<v Speaker 2>I agree with Kyle Shanahan. Kyle Shanaan came out and

0:49:26.280 --> 0:49:28.640
<v Speaker 2>said brock Perty's playing at the exact same level he

0:49:28.680 --> 0:49:31.880
<v Speaker 2>did the last couple of years. Totally agree. And the

0:49:31.960 --> 0:49:34.840
<v Speaker 2>numbers are way different. Why because the pieces aren't the

0:49:34.880 --> 0:49:37.080
<v Speaker 2>same as they were the last couple of years. Brock

0:49:37.160 --> 0:49:41.759
<v Speaker 2>Purty is a mirror. He is going to reflect exactly

0:49:41.880 --> 0:49:45.400
<v Speaker 2>what the players around him have to offer. He's not

0:49:45.440 --> 0:49:48.239
<v Speaker 2>gonna elevate. He's not gonna pull you down, but he's

0:49:48.239 --> 0:49:55.200
<v Speaker 2>not gonna elevate. And so the Packers can't feel great

0:49:55.960 --> 0:49:59.920
<v Speaker 2>about how they've been playing. They escape against the Texans,

0:50:00.000 --> 0:50:03.400
<v Speaker 2>they escape against the Jags, they escape against the Bears.

0:50:03.680 --> 0:50:05.880
<v Speaker 2>They obviously lost the Lions in the middle of that.

0:50:06.760 --> 0:50:11.600
<v Speaker 2>The Packers to me, are a better team than San Francisco.

0:50:12.520 --> 0:50:16.399
<v Speaker 2>They are at home, they're laying less than a field goal.

0:50:17.560 --> 0:50:22.320
<v Speaker 2>Matt Lafouri against Shanahan twenty seven to twenty four, green

0:50:22.360 --> 0:50:25.600
<v Speaker 2>Bay win, twenty seven to twenty three. Green Bay wins

0:50:25.600 --> 0:50:28.200
<v Speaker 2>something like that. Packers are the better team at home

0:50:28.280 --> 0:50:30.440
<v Speaker 2>laying less than a field goal. I like green Bay

0:50:30.480 --> 0:50:33.040
<v Speaker 2>in the spot, yep.

0:50:33.280 --> 0:50:35.719
<v Speaker 3>I like green Bay though, all right? Next one, last

0:50:35.719 --> 0:50:38.160
<v Speaker 3>two picks Arizona minus one at Seattle.

0:50:39.800 --> 0:50:45.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, listen, the Cardinals are flying a little under the

0:50:45.560 --> 0:50:49.520
<v Speaker 2>radar right now. What I like about where they're at

0:50:49.640 --> 0:50:54.000
<v Speaker 2>is they're coming off a bye while Seattle is coming

0:50:54.000 --> 0:50:57.359
<v Speaker 2>off a super emotional kind of theft of a win

0:50:58.040 --> 0:51:04.680
<v Speaker 2>against San Francisco. Arizona has won four straight games. They

0:51:04.719 --> 0:51:09.360
<v Speaker 2>now play another team who's defense. I don't totally trust

0:51:09.840 --> 0:51:13.880
<v Speaker 2>Kyler's playing some of the best football of his career.

0:51:13.960 --> 0:51:17.920
<v Speaker 2>Arizona's knows that the Rams are likely coming for him.

0:51:18.320 --> 0:51:22.919
<v Speaker 2>They need this game. That The one point I don't

0:51:23.000 --> 0:51:26.800
<v Speaker 2>mind laying this is not you know, as long as

0:51:26.840 --> 0:51:29.080
<v Speaker 2>a lot of teams that's playing Seattle have to come

0:51:29.120 --> 0:51:34.120
<v Speaker 2>cross country, Arizona doesn't. I think Arizona's better. I think

0:51:34.160 --> 0:51:38.080
<v Speaker 2>that Seattle is still getting a little too much of

0:51:38.120 --> 0:51:41.560
<v Speaker 2>a lumin field bump from the bookmakers. They're one in

0:51:41.760 --> 0:51:44.880
<v Speaker 2>five against the spread at home this year eight and

0:51:45.000 --> 0:51:47.920
<v Speaker 2>fifteen at home against the spread over the last three years,

0:51:48.200 --> 0:51:51.080
<v Speaker 2>which means Vegas still thinks that that's more of a

0:51:51.120 --> 0:51:54.719
<v Speaker 2>home field advantage than it actually is. I like Arizona

0:51:54.840 --> 0:51:57.480
<v Speaker 2>to win outright, so laying the one point I obviously

0:51:57.520 --> 0:52:02.560
<v Speaker 2>don't mind. So five picks of the week Demanse Tonight

0:52:03.120 --> 0:52:06.800
<v Speaker 2>Cleveland getting three and a half at home against Pittsburgh,

0:52:07.160 --> 0:52:10.719
<v Speaker 2>Sunday Tampa laying five and a half at the Giants,

0:52:11.160 --> 0:52:16.640
<v Speaker 2>Tennessee getting eight at the Texans, Green Bay laying one

0:52:16.680 --> 0:52:19.520
<v Speaker 2>and a half at home against the Niners, and Arizona

0:52:19.920 --> 0:52:23.960
<v Speaker 2>laying one on the road at Seattle. But this is

0:52:24.040 --> 0:52:27.759
<v Speaker 2>the part the whole audience has been waiting for, where

0:52:27.800 --> 0:52:33.160
<v Speaker 2>Demandse prints money for everyone. Last week, Demanse had gave

0:52:33.200 --> 0:52:36.080
<v Speaker 2>out a teaser that counted for his record and a

0:52:36.160 --> 0:52:40.640
<v Speaker 2>super teaser that didn't. The teaser that counted hit because

0:52:40.640 --> 0:52:43.319
<v Speaker 2>he did a seven and a half pointer, so he

0:52:43.360 --> 0:52:46.319
<v Speaker 2>got Casey all the way to plus ten. So even

0:52:46.360 --> 0:52:50.080
<v Speaker 2>though they lost by nine, everybody had Kansas City plus

0:52:50.080 --> 0:52:52.920
<v Speaker 2>eight and a half, Demande had him plus ten. That

0:52:53.040 --> 0:52:57.000
<v Speaker 2>last point really mattered, so it hits and Pittsburgh won outright.

0:52:57.040 --> 0:52:59.799
<v Speaker 2>So plus ten and a half is great Demonse's super

0:53:00.080 --> 0:53:04.200
<v Speaker 2>teaser if people are interested, were those two picks plus Seattle,

0:53:04.600 --> 0:53:08.120
<v Speaker 2>which one outright but he was getting fourteen. The one

0:53:08.120 --> 0:53:11.200
<v Speaker 2>that ruined you was the one I did caution against

0:53:11.200 --> 0:53:16.279
<v Speaker 2>to be fair, which was Jacksonville. Because Detroit, you had

0:53:16.360 --> 0:53:19.320
<v Speaker 2>Jacksonville plus twenty one. You could have had him plus

0:53:19.400 --> 0:53:22.239
<v Speaker 2>forty one. It wouldn't have covered, if that makes you

0:53:22.320 --> 0:53:26.600
<v Speaker 2>feel any better. And because they lost fifty two to six,

0:53:27.080 --> 0:53:29.080
<v Speaker 2>so that one didn't work. But that one didn't count

0:53:29.080 --> 0:53:31.760
<v Speaker 2>for your record. So what are we doing this week?

0:53:32.640 --> 0:53:35.800
<v Speaker 3>This week is just a seven points te'eser two teamer.

0:53:36.400 --> 0:53:40.680
<v Speaker 3>We're teasing Kansas City against the against the Panthers down

0:53:40.719 --> 0:53:44.120
<v Speaker 3>to three and a half, and we're teasing New England

0:53:44.160 --> 0:53:49.040
<v Speaker 3>at Miami up to fourteen and a half. Was gonna

0:53:49.080 --> 0:53:51.480
<v Speaker 3>do a little half point to get it down to

0:53:51.560 --> 0:53:54.440
<v Speaker 3>Kansas City to three in New England up to fifteen.

0:53:55.040 --> 0:53:59.680
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, I think that they will blow out the Panthers,

0:53:59.760 --> 0:54:02.520
<v Speaker 3>unlike you. I don't think they'll like twenty one. But

0:54:02.560 --> 0:54:05.439
<v Speaker 3>I could see them beating ten twelve something like that.

0:54:06.280 --> 0:54:09.480
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, that's that's the teaser. It's at minus. The

0:54:09.520 --> 0:54:11.600
<v Speaker 3>odds aren't on your I think it's like minus one

0:54:11.680 --> 0:54:12.239
<v Speaker 3>sixty three.

0:54:13.440 --> 0:54:20.359
<v Speaker 2>No, minus one fifty, okay, minus one fifty. So the listen. Obviously,

0:54:20.440 --> 0:54:22.919
<v Speaker 2>with the Chiefs, you would love to get it through

0:54:22.960 --> 0:54:28.040
<v Speaker 2>the three I but I I I'm fine with that.

0:54:28.520 --> 0:54:31.879
<v Speaker 2>I love the New England side of it because New

0:54:31.920 --> 0:54:35.440
<v Speaker 2>England is you know, they let Drake may chuck the

0:54:35.480 --> 0:54:38.360
<v Speaker 2>whole game. So even if Miami jumps out to a

0:54:38.400 --> 0:54:42.439
<v Speaker 2>big lead, they are, you know, New England's the back

0:54:42.480 --> 0:54:43.400
<v Speaker 2>door covers alive.

0:54:43.520 --> 0:54:43.680
<v Speaker 3>Now.

0:54:43.719 --> 0:54:47.839
<v Speaker 2>New England historically, in the history of their franchise, they've

0:54:47.880 --> 0:54:52.480
<v Speaker 2>only won seventeen times. In Miami, they've played them sixty times,

0:54:52.800 --> 0:54:54.759
<v Speaker 2>so that's I don't think New England can win the

0:54:54.800 --> 0:54:59.440
<v Speaker 2>game outright, but getting fourteen and a half, yeah, in

0:54:59.480 --> 0:55:03.120
<v Speaker 2>a division game against a Dolphins team that just needs

0:55:03.160 --> 0:55:05.600
<v Speaker 2>to win that it can't be worried about style points.

0:55:05.800 --> 0:55:10.360
<v Speaker 2>And New England's been competitive, They've been at least competitive adjacent.

0:55:10.760 --> 0:55:14.160
<v Speaker 2>So I like, I like this one. I'll give you

0:55:14.200 --> 0:55:17.520
<v Speaker 2>an a minus. Not that, listen, my grades matter at

0:55:17.520 --> 0:55:21.560
<v Speaker 2>this point. I like I like this one a lot.

0:55:22.280 --> 0:55:26.080
<v Speaker 2>Thank you for the Okay, thanks, no, listen, you've been rolling.

0:55:27.120 --> 0:55:31.680
<v Speaker 2>We've got the Week twelve offer Okay, let's do it.

0:55:32.239 --> 0:55:35.560
<v Speaker 3>So Kansas City's obviously going to be Carolina this week,

0:55:35.560 --> 0:55:38.480
<v Speaker 3>all right, so if they do will probably be a

0:55:38.480 --> 0:55:41.160
<v Speaker 3>bit of a statement. So your offer this week is

0:55:41.200 --> 0:55:43.400
<v Speaker 3>going to be Carolina under seven and a half points

0:55:43.400 --> 0:55:46.479
<v Speaker 3>at plus three ninety and my homes to throw zero

0:55:46.560 --> 0:55:51.200
<v Speaker 3>interceptions at plus one hundred total parlay value at plus

0:55:51.200 --> 0:55:51.720
<v Speaker 3>eight eighty.

0:55:54.000 --> 0:55:57.640
<v Speaker 2>I hate to disappoint the audience, but I'm gonna have

0:55:57.880 --> 0:56:03.160
<v Speaker 2>to turn this offer down. Holding a team under eighth

0:56:03.400 --> 0:56:09.200
<v Speaker 2>is really hard, and like those way higher for that right, Yes,

0:56:09.640 --> 0:56:12.680
<v Speaker 2>that's that's how I feel like. I couldn't believe that

0:56:12.920 --> 0:56:18.880
<v Speaker 2>it was only plus three to ninety the Panthers now. Listen,

0:56:19.280 --> 0:56:23.400
<v Speaker 2>the Panthers twice this year have been held under eight points.

0:56:23.719 --> 0:56:27.440
<v Speaker 2>Against the Chargers they scored three and against the Commanders

0:56:27.440 --> 0:56:30.439
<v Speaker 2>they scored seven. But they've won two in a row,

0:56:30.960 --> 0:56:34.000
<v Speaker 2>they scoring twenty three and twenty bryce playing a little

0:56:34.000 --> 0:56:39.799
<v Speaker 2>bit better. So I under thirteen that I think is

0:56:39.920 --> 0:56:44.160
<v Speaker 2>totally reasonable, or under fourteen, I should say, under eight

0:56:44.840 --> 0:56:47.960
<v Speaker 2>I can't do, so I sadly have to turn the

0:56:48.000 --> 0:56:50.200
<v Speaker 2>offer down. Last week, the offer I gave out was

0:56:50.200 --> 0:56:54.120
<v Speaker 2>the Travis Kelce touchdown that didn't hit, but I didn't

0:56:54.160 --> 0:56:58.680
<v Speaker 2>mind the the process on it because Noah Gray got

0:56:58.719 --> 0:57:01.640
<v Speaker 2>two touchdowns. So the idea of the Chiefs were gonna,

0:57:01.880 --> 0:57:04.359
<v Speaker 2>you know, get down in the deep red zone and

0:57:04.600 --> 0:57:07.480
<v Speaker 2>you find a tight end was correct, but it was

0:57:07.520 --> 0:57:11.080
<v Speaker 2>no great for both of them. Instead of Kelsey under

0:57:11.200 --> 0:57:13.799
<v Speaker 2>thirteen and a half, they're putting it in there right now.

0:57:13.840 --> 0:57:19.320
<v Speaker 2>I think what the plus is if it is under

0:57:19.400 --> 0:57:22.080
<v Speaker 2>thirteen and a half and no picks for Mahomes is

0:57:22.120 --> 0:57:24.439
<v Speaker 2>plus three forty eight. All right, I'll take that one.

0:57:25.480 --> 0:57:31.240
<v Speaker 2>I'll take that one. I'll take twenty one thirteen Chiefs

0:57:31.360 --> 0:57:36.040
<v Speaker 2>kind of boring victory and the Panthers don't get two

0:57:36.080 --> 0:57:38.640
<v Speaker 2>touchdowns because the defense gotta be a little pissed about

0:57:38.680 --> 0:57:41.600
<v Speaker 2>how the Bills game ended. All right, let me answer something,

0:57:41.640 --> 0:57:44.360
<v Speaker 2>take quick break, come back, answer some listener questions. Next,

0:57:44.360 --> 0:57:51.800
<v Speaker 2>What's right? Welcome back in What's right? With Nick right, Demanse,

0:57:52.000 --> 0:57:54.280
<v Speaker 2>Let's do a few listener questions.

0:57:53.880 --> 0:57:57.560
<v Speaker 3>Please, Danny Tanner, any thoughts on the Hall of Fame

0:57:57.600 --> 0:58:00.400
<v Speaker 3>semifinalists and who do you think will be chosen this year?

0:58:01.360 --> 0:58:03.520
<v Speaker 2>So you guys know, I loved the Hall of Fame

0:58:03.600 --> 0:58:06.800
<v Speaker 2>stuff and last year when the semifinalists came out. We

0:58:07.040 --> 0:58:09.480
<v Speaker 2>whittled it down to the five who I thought should

0:58:09.520 --> 0:58:13.480
<v Speaker 2>make it, and I as I was even shocked by this.

0:58:13.760 --> 0:58:17.000
<v Speaker 2>We went five for five. Like I was, that was

0:58:17.880 --> 0:58:20.720
<v Speaker 2>like kind of an underrated One of my prouder things

0:58:21.000 --> 0:58:23.400
<v Speaker 2>was doing it on the fly. We whittled it from

0:58:23.440 --> 0:58:26.480
<v Speaker 2>twenty five to fifteen and fifteen to five. We did

0:58:26.520 --> 0:58:30.080
<v Speaker 2>not have Gates making it last year. That was incredibly controversial,

0:58:30.440 --> 0:58:33.920
<v Speaker 2>and we went five for five on that. I have

0:58:34.000 --> 0:58:36.360
<v Speaker 2>a lot of thoughts on it that I don't want

0:58:36.360 --> 0:58:39.400
<v Speaker 2>to rush right here. So at some point in the

0:58:39.400 --> 0:58:42.760
<v Speaker 2>next few weeks we'll do a big, long Hall of

0:58:42.800 --> 0:58:46.360
<v Speaker 2>Fame segment. I talked on TV yesterday about how I

0:58:46.360 --> 0:58:49.360
<v Speaker 2>don't think Eli should be in. We'll spend time on

0:58:49.440 --> 0:58:52.400
<v Speaker 2>that because I do think he will get in, but

0:58:52.480 --> 0:58:55.360
<v Speaker 2>I don't know that he'll be first ballot. So we'll

0:58:55.360 --> 0:58:57.040
<v Speaker 2>do all that, but just not today, all right.

0:58:57.160 --> 0:59:02.400
<v Speaker 3>Next, Kevin Marlow Nick of the three AFC West teams.

0:59:02.480 --> 0:59:04.960
<v Speaker 3>Which is the most intriguing the battle with the with

0:59:05.080 --> 0:59:06.840
<v Speaker 3>the Chiefs for the foreseeable future.

0:59:08.040 --> 0:59:12.720
<v Speaker 2>Oh, it's the Chargers. Without question. I like they have

0:59:12.800 --> 0:59:14.960
<v Speaker 2>the best coach of the group. They have the best

0:59:15.040 --> 0:59:18.120
<v Speaker 2>quarterback of the group. They have built. They're building through

0:59:18.120 --> 0:59:21.480
<v Speaker 2>the draft. No, the Chargers are coming. If they're not

0:59:21.520 --> 0:59:24.040
<v Speaker 2>already here, they're coming. So that'll be a that'll be

0:59:24.080 --> 0:59:25.280
<v Speaker 2>a hell of a battle.

0:59:25.040 --> 0:59:32.040
<v Speaker 3>Next Lamar Jackson. Nick, He says, thanks for watching Lamar Jackson.

0:59:32.640 --> 0:59:36.360
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, Nick, if you Brew, Wilds and de Bond's

0:59:36.360 --> 0:59:38.760
<v Speaker 3>they were on a seven on seven football team, what

0:59:38.800 --> 0:59:39.919
<v Speaker 3>would your positions be?

0:59:44.840 --> 0:59:49.280
<v Speaker 2>So I think Brew probably has to be all time

0:59:49.400 --> 0:59:52.160
<v Speaker 2>quarterback because he's not going to be moving all that

0:59:52.200 --> 0:59:54.560
<v Speaker 2>well because he's an old guy. So I think he

0:59:54.840 --> 0:59:57.480
<v Speaker 2>like he's got to be the quarterback. And then in

0:59:57.560 --> 1:00:02.439
<v Speaker 2>seven on seven, isn't it everyone else just a receiver? Yeah,

1:00:02.600 --> 1:00:05.480
<v Speaker 2>Like I don't really know. I I would.

1:00:05.680 --> 1:00:08.680
<v Speaker 3>I do think there's a sinner for some reason. Actually, no,

1:00:09.280 --> 1:00:12.680
<v Speaker 3>you gotta start of the quarterback might start off. I would.

1:00:13.440 --> 1:00:20.560
<v Speaker 2>I would make myself and demands the wide receivers. Wild's

1:00:20.560 --> 1:00:24.560
<v Speaker 2>the running back and Brew the quarterback. That's That's how

1:00:24.600 --> 1:00:30.640
<v Speaker 2>I would do it. Like Wild is sneaky really strong,

1:00:31.640 --> 1:00:37.040
<v Speaker 2>Like Wild is sneaky jacked. Yeah, for real, I I

1:00:37.040 --> 1:00:39.840
<v Speaker 2>I know it's it's It was as surprising to me

1:00:39.880 --> 1:00:43.439
<v Speaker 2>as anybody the first time I knew it. But but yeah,

1:00:43.480 --> 1:00:46.920
<v Speaker 2>Wild's in like Wild bikes a ton and lifts weights

1:00:46.960 --> 1:00:49.520
<v Speaker 2>I think every single day, So I think he would

1:00:49.560 --> 1:00:52.920
<v Speaker 2>be a good running back. You have the height and

1:00:52.960 --> 1:00:55.920
<v Speaker 2>the leaping ability for wide receiver, and I'd be a

1:00:56.040 --> 1:01:00.800
<v Speaker 2>Lad mcconkee possession receiver type, real great hand. Not gonna

1:01:00.800 --> 1:01:03.840
<v Speaker 2>really stretch the field on you these days, but yeah,

1:01:03.920 --> 1:01:05.800
<v Speaker 2>and bruis the quarterback, so that's how we'll do it

1:01:06.840 --> 1:01:08.640
<v Speaker 2>all right, Next we got.

1:01:08.480 --> 1:01:12.280
<v Speaker 3>A robber eighty four. I understand your skepticism of Nicks,

1:01:12.600 --> 1:01:15.960
<v Speaker 3>but are you showing growth already, especially without great receivers?

1:01:16.440 --> 1:01:20.360
<v Speaker 3>What do you think his ceiling is? Party great with avengers,

1:01:20.400 --> 1:01:23.160
<v Speaker 3>but won't be one himself yet.

1:01:23.160 --> 1:01:27.560
<v Speaker 2>Listen, I'm gonna my priors on bow Knicks are too

1:01:27.640 --> 1:01:32.720
<v Speaker 2>strong to move off after ten games. I mean the guy.

1:01:33.800 --> 1:01:38.360
<v Speaker 2>The age part of bo Nicks cannot be underplayed as

1:01:38.360 --> 1:01:40.760
<v Speaker 2>far as how much better is he going to get?

1:01:41.080 --> 1:01:45.720
<v Speaker 2>Bow Knicks is two and a half years older than

1:01:45.840 --> 1:01:52.840
<v Speaker 2>Anthony Richardson. He's three months younger than Trevor Lawrence. He

1:01:52.880 --> 1:01:55.960
<v Speaker 2>turns twenty five at the when the Super Bowl happens,

1:01:56.400 --> 1:01:59.919
<v Speaker 2>So I he as Sean Payton sixty games of College Star.

1:02:00.600 --> 1:02:03.280
<v Speaker 2>So I just think he's close to a finished product.

1:02:03.640 --> 1:02:06.320
<v Speaker 2>So I don't see this like upward trajectory. I think
