1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:07,159
Speaker 1: Game day, he's every day. No, it's Texans all excess,

2
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:10,720
Speaker 1: all right, Welcome to the podcast. It's the Search, Part two,

3
00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 1: Episode two of this series, which we hope is only

4
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:19,079
Speaker 1: a one year series for a long long time. As

5
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 1: episode two, we talked about some of the candidates, the

6
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:25,400
Speaker 1: reported candidates in episode one. But now since we last

7
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:29,480
Speaker 1: left you with the Search, well many candidates have been

8
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 1: interviewed and the Texans have been releasing the interviews as

9
00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 1: they have taken place. And here we are. This is

10
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 1: being recorded right after the divisional round, Johnny, and it's

11
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:41,959
Speaker 1: fun to talk about. We'll talk about some of these

12
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:45,600
Speaker 1: games because they involve Texans coaching candidates and that's cool.

13
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 1: I like this. You can evaluate the performance on the flight.

14
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 1: It's not just about how they do in the postseason, obviously,

15
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: it's a body of work here and more than that

16
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 1: even but it's cool, Yeah, it is. You had forty

17
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 1: nine ers Dmkran's. Obviously, you had the Giants Eagles, which

18
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,080
Speaker 1: had Mike Kafka one side, and you had changed I

19
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 1: Can and Johnathan Gannon on the other for the Eagles,

20
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: so you you certainly had that going on, which was

21
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 1: it was kind of fun to watch um. The games

22
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 1: weren't like last year. Last year's divisional playoff round was unbelievable.

23
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 1: I mean last year's playoff. Last year's divisional playoff round

24
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: Michael Dona is one of the best two days in sports.

25
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: Ye can't. It would be just it would be dubious.

26
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,319
Speaker 1: If you had that every year, I'd wonder, wait a minute,

27
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 1: what's going on here? But are you with me on

28
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 1: this though? Look, all right, Mahomes gets hurt, and I

29
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,319
Speaker 1: heard Sean and Seth talking about it, Well, it wasn't

30
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 1: that fun to watch if you don't have a dog

31
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:38,559
Speaker 1: of the fight or whatever the case. Maybe and maybe

32
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 1: that's true, But to me, I was really intrigued by

33
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:43,960
Speaker 1: how Andy Read and company, how they were going to

34
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: navigate their way to a win with a banged up

35
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 1: Mahomes after they had already played Chad Henny semi Texans

36
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 1: killer Chad Henny as I mean, it's not like he's

37
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: that enormous success, but he's had definitely some success against

38
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 1: the Texans, and he did pretty well with that ninety

39
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 1: plus yard drive. I almost texted you, guys, but I

40
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 1: knew exactly the answer that I was gonna get Chad

41
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: Hanny went in the game. All was texted both you

42
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 1: and Andrea, and I knew Andrea was gonna be like

43
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 1: SE told you. And it was a tremendous drive and

44
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 1: obviously Pacheco's run was massive on that drive. But Peyton

45
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: Manning said something that I've said for years, and it's

46
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 1: a lot easier to do at the high school college

47
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 1: level because you have you have eight more minutes in college.

48
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,519
Speaker 1: You have eighteen more minutes in high school, and that's

49
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 1: making adjustments at the half. Payton Manning said, He's like, look,

50
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 1: and I've said it. We've talked about a million times.

51
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 1: Twelve minutes goes fast, faster than you think. It's enough

52
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 1: time to kind of readjust yourself, go to the bathroom,

53
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 1: have an orange slice, maybe grab a crustable, and that's it.

54
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 1: An accrustable and that's it. I mean, that's about all

55
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: the time you have it. All right, let's go back out.

56
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 1: So you have to make adjustments in the game during

57
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 1: the game and go if you're gonna make one. And

58
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 1: that's one where Andy Reid was like, man, okay, do

59
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 1: I stick with right now a guy that's got one leg,

60
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: or do I go to my backup a guy that

61
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,399
Speaker 1: I trusted, I rely on, and all right, I'm gonna

62
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,080
Speaker 1: go with that. And he goes ninety eight yards on

63
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: a drive and I mean it was you know, he

64
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: made key throws throughout that drive. I mean it looked

65
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: like Mahomes, But who does and he did it. And

66
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,239
Speaker 1: I think that's that's the one thing to keep in

67
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 1: mind as we talk about this search. We talk about

68
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 1: this guy's background, this guy's background, that guy does this,

69
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 1: that guy does that. The biggest thing to me as

70
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: a head coach. And you won't know this until a

71
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 1: guy gets into that moment as being a head coach,

72
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 1: which guy can make can force his staff and get

73
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 1: his staff to make adjustments when they need to be made.

74
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 1: You keep getting like yesterday. I think it was a

75
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 1: great example yesterday. Yesterday being Sunday, the Bengals and the Bills.

76
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 1: Now I don't know if it's because of snow and

77
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 1: they couldn't see the white jersey Bengals blitzing from the edge,

78
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: but I don't know how many times the defensive backs

79
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 1: came out of blitz and the Bills never picked it up,

80
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 1: never picked it up. That's an adjustment that I really

81
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 1: welcome team, which the Bills are needed to make, and

82
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: they didn't make it. They didn't pick that adjustment up,

83
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 1: and so the Bengals kept going to it and the

84
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 1: Bills were never never really able to stop it. So

85
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: game plan prep is huge, but then being able to

86
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 1: make those adjustments in real time, real time you send

87
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: a sidine and go, hey man, they keep bringing Hilton

88
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,119
Speaker 1: from the edge when you see twenty one in the slot.

89
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: Here's how we're gonna adapt, Here's how we're gonna adjust. It.

90
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: Never felt like the Bills were able to make that adjustment.

91
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 1: So whether it's Stiken or Kafka Gannon, Thomas Brown, Damika,

92
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 1: Ryan Schampayn, whomever, that coach has got to be able

93
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 1: to make those adjustments or get his staff to make

94
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: those adjustments, even if it's walking over to the offensive

95
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 1: line huddle, even though it's a defensive minded head coach

96
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: walking over the offensive line huddle and saying, hey, they're

97
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 1: doing this to you defensively. We need to change this. Yeah,

98
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,280
Speaker 1: what are you gonna do about that? Do it? Coach?

99
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: I gotta go back and you'll help the defense. And

100
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 1: your staff then has to do that. And that's the

101
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 1: kind of head coach. I think you've got to be

102
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 1: able to have is one that make those adjustments from

103
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: week to week, but also drive to drive if needed,

104
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 1: and that's massive in this league. The game involving the

105
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 1: Cowboys in the forty nine ers, obviously, Demiko Ryan's defense

106
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 1: did a tremendous job. Twelve points the total for the

107
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys in that Divisional round game. They lost Pollard

108
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: in the first half. It was big. But look, you

109
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 1: have Ezekiel Elliott, you have Dak Prescott. Yeah, I mean,

110
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 1: the San Francisco forty nine Ers aren't gonna cry any

111
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: tears for you. They're playing a third string mister irrelevant

112
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,279
Speaker 1: quarterback and doing pretty darn well with it. And I

113
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: know they've been at it for a while. This was

114
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: an in game adjustment that the Cowboys had to make

115
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 1: and they didn't make it very well, and Dak through

116
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,159
Speaker 1: two interceptions and all of that. But I thought that

117
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 1: Demiko's defense, the whole demeanor of Demiko on the sideline,

118
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 1: the way the guys play hard for him. I know

119
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 1: they've got a squad, Johnny, They've got a lot of

120
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 1: talent on that side of the ball, and he's grown

121
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 1: up with them from a position coach to a coordinator,

122
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 1: and here he is in the NFC Championship Game again

123
00:05:58,200 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 1: and a chance to get to the Super Bowl. It's

124
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 1: gonna be awesome to see if he can do it.

125
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 1: But I liked what I saw out of him on

126
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,839
Speaker 1: Sunday against that Dallas offense. Yeah, there's no doubt that

127
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 1: you're right. Without Pollard. Oh yeah, Ezekiel Eliott, he's still

128
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,840
Speaker 1: pretty good. He's not what he used to be, but

129
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,599
Speaker 1: he's still pretty good, except for when they haven't played center.

130
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 1: Um that's at that's unfortunate. But Demiko, Yeah, Demiko's got

131
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 1: some talents. Let's not let's not get it twisted. There's

132
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 1: some talent, but there's also something to be said for Okay,

133
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:30,160
Speaker 1: you got talent, but what do you do with it?

134
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 1: We see a lot of coaches that have a lot

135
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 1: of talent and then they do nothing with it. They

136
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: you know, they can't make adjustments. They just roll out

137
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: the balls and let him play. And that only gets

138
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:44,039
Speaker 1: you so far. And I feel like when I watched

139
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 1: the forty nine, I feel like it's a very discipline group.

140
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 1: They tackle well, and I think that's that's a lot

141
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 1: of the players but it's also on the coaching staff

142
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: guys that have to be in the right position. Jimmy

143
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,359
Speaker 1: Ward was in a perfect position to make that one interception.

144
00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 1: I thought that was I was arguably the biggest player

145
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 1: the game. Six to six, cows are going down, potentially

146
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 1: gonna score for the half. I think it was before

147
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:08,160
Speaker 1: the half, and Dack throws a ball into a spot

148
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: where he didn't expect Jimmy Warre to be. But Jimmy

149
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 1: Warred is there tips it. Fred Warner makes a play.

150
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 1: And by the way, I said this last year getting

151
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: ready for the forty nine ers, and I'll say it again,

152
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: I think Fred Warner is the top ten player in

153
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 1: this league. He's incredible. He is absolutely incredible. And to

154
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 1: your point about growing up with Demiko. When Fred Warner

155
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 1: got into the league, Demiko was his position coach. Yeah,

156
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 1: And it's just that relationship has grown and grown and grown,

157
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:35,559
Speaker 1: and you can see that relationship with linebackers and defense

158
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 1: coordinators over the years. You know, Lovey had that with

159
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 1: his His guys are a locker and breaks up in

160
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 1: Chicago for a long long time. So that'll be one

161
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 1: thing that Demiko has had and had that relationship so

162
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 1: Fred Warner if Demiko ends up taking you know what

163
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 1: he said, coaching jobs, and hopefully it's here, but he's

164
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 1: gonna have to forge that relationship quicker than not. But

165
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 1: he's also coming here with a lot of stroke. He'll be,

166
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 1: you know, number one defense. Guys are gonna pay attention.

167
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 1: Of course, we always knew when he was a player, guys,

168
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 1: you know, he spoke, people paid attention. He wasn't called

169
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 1: cap for you know, leverage you can call it's got cap.

170
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 1: I mean, he's called cap for a reason. So so

171
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 1: there's there's definitely that I thought the most impressive performance

172
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 1: all weak and he's not. It's funny because Robert Hensley

173
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 1: Texas is lou Anon Rumbo, the defensive coordinator for the Bengals,

174
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 1: put on a show against he did. He did. He's

175
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 1: just not his name is not being considered as such.

176
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 1: And I don't know if that's just the defensive mindset.

177
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 1: There are not many of those out there. I don't know,

178
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:32,719
Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. Lou Ana Rumos a

179
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: little bit older, he put on a show. The others

180
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 1: were the two Eagles coordinators. The Eagles absolutely dominated team.

181
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 1: They had already seen twice this year. Yeah. Dominated I

182
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 1: mean it wasn't even it wasn't even a ball game. Mark,

183
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 1: he was doing point Saturday night. Shut it off. I

184
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:48,439
Speaker 1: shut it off half. I'm like, well, I'm not wasting

185
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 1: my time, elementary, No way you I shut it off

186
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 1: a half. Yeah, it's gross. Im this prediculous. Jack's about

187
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 1: twenty ain't nothing. Yeah, I mean well, I mean I

188
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:07,560
Speaker 1: kept tabs on it. Yeah. And the Giants game, I'm like, no, Um,

189
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:12,280
Speaker 1: the Eagles. It's interesting because when we played the Eagles

190
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: here and and we're going toe to toe with them

191
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 1: on at the half and that one and we've got

192
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 1: the ball in the third quarter. It's interesting because the

193
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:23,680
Speaker 1: Eagles did a kind of a you know, tellustrator. They

194
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 1: did it with their their defensive backs. Coach to Hard

195
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 1: Wilson and talked about that the interception that got flipped

196
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 1: going the other way, and so, um, that was it

197
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 1: was interesting to see that. But those those coordinators Stiken

198
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 1: and Gannon, it's to me, it's interesting because you can see,

199
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,439
Speaker 1: you know, young guys are always trying to You're always

200
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: trying to come up with something new. You know. That

201
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:50,839
Speaker 1: was like, hey check this out, Hey watch me do this.

202
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 1: Those guys just they have they've they've cultivated a plan

203
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,719
Speaker 1: and they follow it and it doesn't mean they can't

204
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: adjust to it, and quite the contrary, but they don't

205
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,680
Speaker 1: have to do flashy things. They're not bringing this guy

206
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 1: off this edge and dropping three guys into coverage. You're

207
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 1: not showing you nine to laun of scrimmage and then

208
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,480
Speaker 1: blitzing five and dropping four. You know, they just play good,

209
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 1: solid football when you have And this is one of

210
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,440
Speaker 1: the things that I think is even more key in

211
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 1: the NFL now. And we saw this. We seen this

212
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,360
Speaker 1: with the Texans, and it felt like it was it

213
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 1: was telling about the Texans when guys went down, especially

214
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 1: the Dallas game. When guys went down in the Dallas game,

215
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:30,959
Speaker 1: you know, like I think about Stephen Nelson, Stephen Nelson

216
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 1: goes down a Dallas game, tray moon Smith stepped in, yeah,

217
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: and two picks. Two picks played a pre solid ball

218
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 1: game all around. Read blanket ship for rookie safety for

219
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: the Eagles, not only I mean Traymont's got some pelts

220
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 1: on the wall. He's been around for a little bit.

221
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,199
Speaker 1: Read blanket Ships is a rookie and the Eagles have

222
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 1: had some guys banged up in a secondary read blanket

223
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 1: ships gotta go in. He makes some huge plays in

224
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 1: that game. So to get something out of an undrafted

225
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 1: rookie at this time of year, I think speaks a

226
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:01,319
Speaker 1: lot to Jonathan Gannon a defensive side and Shane Stike

227
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 1: and on the offensive side that offense. That offense was

228
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:07,559
Speaker 1: just a machine and Jalen seemingly is about as healthy

229
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 1: as he could be. But this is a great challenge,

230
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 1: all right, Mike Kafka, and I believe that's the proper pronunciation,

231
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 1: not like Franz Kafka with metamorphosis, but Mike Kafka, I'm

232
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 1: not taking anything away from his performance this year with

233
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones and that offense, which overperformed. Come on and

234
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,680
Speaker 1: they win a playoff game on the road against the Vikings.

235
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 1: And I know the Vikings are the subject of many

236
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 1: memes NFL memes. People mocked them and Kirk Cousins and

237
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 1: the chains and all that. I get it. But you're

238
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 1: on the road at Minnesota. We've been there. It's a

239
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 1: very tough place to play. They got that victory on

240
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 1: the road, a playoff win first time in a long

241
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 1: time for the Giants. Good season, maybe a great season,

242
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 1: degree of difficulty in the context of where we thought

243
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 1: they would be, right, But the Eagles are an elite

244
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 1: team and Johnny and so I'm just gonna put this

245
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: Kafka thing on up to the side. I don't know

246
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 1: what the Texans think of Kafka they interview him, but

247
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 1: I'm not going to take anything away from his performances

248
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: here based on that playoff loss. I mean, Daniel Jones

249
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,319
Speaker 1: kind of turned back into Daniel Jones in that game.

250
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 1: But so what, they had a really nice year and

251
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 1: he's an up and coming coach and good for him,

252
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:13,680
Speaker 1: and who knows, maybe he's the next coach of the Texans.

253
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 1: But I like those guys in Philly, Gannon, stike In

254
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 1: obviously love Demiko. I think it's fascinating to see this

255
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 1: NFC Championship game and these three top Texans coaching candidates

256
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,559
Speaker 1: going at it this week, and especially Ryan's versus stike In.

257
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 1: And I know it's about more than that, it's the players,

258
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 1: but it's really cool to see that. I have a

259
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 1: feeling the road ends here for the forty nine ers. Perty. Oh,

260
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 1: I want to bring up something here. Oh, it's a

261
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 1: little tangent here on Trey Lance because I was watching

262
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 1: the game with great intensity the Dallas Cowboys versus the

263
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 1: forty nine ers, rooting for the forty nine ers because

264
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: I don't want Das to do anything obviously, and I thought, man,

265
00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: I can see why Shanahan and co. Really wanted the

266
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 1: side of Trey Lance to them. Maybe it's look, look

267
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 1: what Mahomes did for the previous led by Alex Smith,

268
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs offense right, previously led by him, and

269
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 1: takes it to another level. I think their feelings that

270
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,319
Speaker 1: Trey Lance was going to take them to another level. Yeah,

271
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 1: they're not going to get to that level with Brock

272
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,479
Speaker 1: Purdy in all likelihood, but they're super solid with Purdy.

273
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:25,480
Speaker 1: And I don't know what they're thinking going forward, but

274
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 1: I can tell just the way he was calling that game,

275
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 1: he was very careful, let's not do too much with

276
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 1: Brock here. Okay, still a rookie. This is a tough spot.

277
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 1: The ball's coming out a little wobbly at times, and

278
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 1: he's making those solid intermediate area throws. Good, good good.

279
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:46,199
Speaker 1: I got to feel that their feeling is Trey Lance

280
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 1: can take us to magical places where we've never been

281
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,760
Speaker 1: with this offense, and they might still feel that way, Johnny,

282
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,200
Speaker 1: I don't know, but we'll see. For now, it's Sunday

283
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: Brock Purdy against Jalen Hurts in the NFC Championship. A

284
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 1: couple of things. Number One, we were able to run

285
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,679
Speaker 1: the ball against that Eagles defense. Let's say we have

286
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 1: the Texans. If the forty nine ers can run the

287
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 1: ball the way that we were able to much, then

288
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 1: Brock Purty is going to be able to dominate. With

289
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,000
Speaker 1: the bootleg game. That has been a big part of

290
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 1: what they do because we saw it here in Houston.

291
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:24,160
Speaker 1: Zone zone, zone, boot zone, boot split, zone, boot you

292
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 1: they run that bootleg. Kyle's run that bootleg, and what

293
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 1: he's done is he's evolved with that bootleg. It is

294
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 1: as as it was with Matt, but it's even more

295
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 1: so I think with pretty must say Matt match Shop,

296
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 1: where everybody thinks the bootleg is, you know, a guy

297
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 1: boots and then all of a sudden he's looking at

298
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 1: one half of the field and he's thrown to somebody

299
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 1: on that side. The boot game has now become almost

300
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 1: like a just a play action to give you some

301
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 1: kind of half roll action and then throw it back

302
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 1: the other way too. That that's what I used to

303
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 1: love with Kyle Shannahan. That's one of my favorite concepts

304
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 1: in all football is to roll throwback, boot, throwback, and

305
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 1: that's what Purty can do. That part of the game

306
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,200
Speaker 1: was really taken away because they couldn't run the football.

307
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,240
Speaker 1: They just could not get the run game going. And

308
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,600
Speaker 1: I think some of that had to do with Dallas's

309
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 1: front Michael Parsons was playing different spots and I think

310
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 1: that kind of threw the forty nine ers off a

311
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 1: little bit. But I do think there was a little

312
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 1: bit of that. But here they are going on the road.

313
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 1: They're now the underdog. So I think actually Kyle Shanahan's

314
00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 1: in a better spot that way, because they went to

315
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 1: LA last year, played the Rams, and I feel like

316
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 1: this is just my thirty thousand foot view from a distance.

317
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 1: I felt that way with Garoppolo, like they knew there

318
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 1: were certain things they weren't going to get out of Jimmy.

319
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 1: They just knew it. I feel like they can get

320
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:54,680
Speaker 1: more out of Purdy Wow, because habits aren't totally ingrained

321
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 1: in him yet. They've started with him from the beginning

322
00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 1: and I think there's there now. I've always thought that

323
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 1: Trey Lance was the guy that they thought could give

324
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 1: them the kind of mahomes S sort of thing they're

325
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 1: looking for, and you still don't know. He played three

326
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 1: games last year, one against US where he got better

327
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 1: during the game against US. I think he started one game,

328
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 1: broke his leg and that was it. One game man

329
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:22,760
Speaker 1: one game in twenty two. So I think if I'm Kyle,

330
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 1: I know I can't go into the game and be

331
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 1: that conservative with him. I've got to be a little

332
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 1: bit better about opening some things up for him. And

333
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 1: that means getting the run game going. If that means

334
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 1: using debo a little bit more, I gotta use debo,

335
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 1: maybe put McCaffrey out. Why that seemed to throw the

336
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 1: Cowboys off a little bit, even though they knew it

337
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,680
Speaker 1: was coming, Like how do you hand them McCaffrey and

338
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 1: when he lines up in different spots, And I think

339
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 1: that's where Kyle has to really kind of tap into

340
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 1: that a little bit more this week. But I think

341
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:55,520
Speaker 1: perty will give them just as good a shot of

342
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 1: going to beat in Philly because I think Kyle will

343
00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 1: coach a little bit more like he's the underdog as

344
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 1: opposed to they're the favorite. Playing at home, everybody expect

345
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:03,960
Speaker 1: you when I think he'll let his hair down a

346
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,639
Speaker 1: little bit, whatever he's got left of it, and and

347
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 1: let purty not hurt the team. But I think to

348
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:11,919
Speaker 1: beat Philly you gotta get up into the thirties. I

349
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:15,400
Speaker 1: think also Kyle felt like, look, Dallas isn't scoring us today.

350
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 1: Let's not. Let's not, you know, throw this game away

351
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 1: if you will. Oh, you got to get to the

352
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:20,920
Speaker 1: thirties to beat Philly, And I think that will open

353
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 1: it up for him a little bit. If you're Dallas,

354
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,360
Speaker 1: if you're Jerry Jones, you're Mike McCarthy. And I'm telling

355
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 1: you before the game, nineteen points for San Francisco, take

356
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 1: it or take the unknown. Oh I take nineteen. We're

357
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 1: gonna score three touchdowns in this game. But they didn't.

358
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:37,640
Speaker 1: And there it is. They made a couple of field

359
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 1: goals though. That was good for them, you're good for them.

360
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 1: How about that one block? That thing was going nowhere.

361
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,199
Speaker 1: You know, he's probably so glad it was blocked, because

362
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 1: if that's all that helped him a sales free and

363
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:55,119
Speaker 1: get shanked, it's just another one. What a story that was.

364
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 1: I thought, Jimmy Johnson in the pre game, and I

365
00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 1: don't usually watch all these pre games. When I had

366
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,719
Speaker 1: it on the other it is over, and Jimmy Johnson

367
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 1: said that kickers man, once they get the yips, you

368
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 1: can't trust him. That I mean, once they get the yips. Ouch. Yeah,

369
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 1: but I'll give it to him. He bounced back. He

370
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:12,119
Speaker 1: made a couple of field goals, and I know a

371
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 1: lot of people have it was a twenty five year

372
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,920
Speaker 1: to go. Yeah, it's that goalpost. Looked about those uprights

373
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 1: looked about six inches apart through at that point. The

374
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 1: fact that he was out there so early and then

375
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:28,000
Speaker 1: everybody's all the gamesmanship, everybody's around him before interference, it

376
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 1: was so in his head. And that's that's the thing

377
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 1: about kickers. Look, I did a show with Chris Barr,

378
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 1: legendary Kent State and NFL kicker, Chris Bar This is

379
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 1: a long time ago, Johnny, and he just he once

380
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 1: told me, and I'll never forget it because, like I do,

381
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,919
Speaker 1: a great kicker reference right there. He said, it's all

382
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 1: about your brain. He said, all these guys in the

383
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 1: NFL can kick it a mile, and some guys more

384
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 1: longer than others. Whatever he goes, it's all about what's

385
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 1: between your ears and can you handle that, can you

386
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 1: handle the pressure? Can you get step up there? Make

387
00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,080
Speaker 1: the big kick at a big time? All right? So

388
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:03,440
Speaker 1: it's demikover versus Stike in. It's Gannon trying to hold

389
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:06,160
Speaker 1: his own on the Philly side against that Shanahan led

390
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,719
Speaker 1: offense for San Francisco. Early thought on the winner on

391
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 1: Sunday NFC Championship game. I've said San Francisco for a while.

392
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 1: I remember the first day we asked Dre who was

393
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 1: the best team, who would you put your money on

394
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 1: and go into Super Bowl? And that was I thought,

395
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 1: san Francisco. He said, San Francisco. I've I've been in

396
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 1: favor of San Francisco. If here's the difference. I think

397
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,159
Speaker 1: San Francisco's got a six and a half or a

398
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,800
Speaker 1: seven in their in their bag. They're gonna have to

399
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,159
Speaker 1: be at ten and they've got the capability of being that.

400
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 1: The Eagles to me, are a solid nine across the board. Yeah,

401
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:40,679
Speaker 1: like the Eagles are gonna be a nine. You know

402
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:42,960
Speaker 1: that at home? At home, they're gonna be a nine.

403
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 1: And they don't change. They're nine wherever they play them.

404
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:47,639
Speaker 1: So but the forty nine ers a goot that six

405
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:48,879
Speaker 1: and a half seven in them, which I think is

406
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 1: what they got against the Cowboys. The forty nine ers

407
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 1: best beast, the Eagles best oh, the top level performance

408
00:19:56,840 --> 00:20:01,719
Speaker 1: if they get there, I'm picking the Eagles. What about Bengals? Chiefs, Oh,

409
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 1: we don't know about Mahomes And as we're recording, those

410
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,640
Speaker 1: things can be changing as we speak. I got the Bengals, though.

411
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 1: The Bengals just look so hot to me. And I

412
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 1: know they're banged up here and there and everywhere, but gosh,

413
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,880
Speaker 1: Joe Burrows so confident. They are feeding off of that.

414
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 1: And when Romo, I know Romo gets a lot of heat,

415
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 1: but when he's talking about Burrow just standing up at

416
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 1: the line and Peyton Manning in the situation looking around

417
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,880
Speaker 1: like I'm gonna go to the slot left here, I'm

418
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:29,919
Speaker 1: gonna pick my guy when I get to get up

419
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 1: to the line of scrimmage and see the matchup, which

420
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 1: is what Manning used to do, and Brady too. They

421
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 1: could just do it. If Burrows that good, if they're

422
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,639
Speaker 1: really operating like that, good night everybody. I mean, he

423
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:43,440
Speaker 1: is so polished right now, so confident I cannot pick

424
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,880
Speaker 1: against Joe Burrow in that game. The Bengals are three

425
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:50,880
Speaker 1: and oh in twenty twenty two against the Chiefs. They

426
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,919
Speaker 1: beat him in week seventeen the regular season. Wow, then

427
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:55,520
Speaker 1: they beat him in the playoffs, and then they beat

428
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,199
Speaker 1: him this season. I think that's got to stop. I

429
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,520
Speaker 1: think Mahomes will do everything in his power to make

430
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:04,320
Speaker 1: it stop. And or Chad Henning here, but here's or

431
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,440
Speaker 1: Chad Henning. I don't think Henny beats him. I think

432
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 1: here's the thing to think about. When we played Mahomes

433
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,880
Speaker 1: in nineteen up there, he was coming off the week

434
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:17,199
Speaker 1: before he had injured his ankle against the Colts. He

435
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 1: played against us, but you could tell he was not

436
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:24,359
Speaker 1: the same. The scrambles were out and that was big.

437
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 1: And Louanna Rumo will put the heat on him and

438
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 1: force him to do it. I think it's very tough

439
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 1: to be a team four team times in a row.

440
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:33,520
Speaker 1: But if any team is gonna do it, it's the Bengals.

441
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 1: But I'm not gonna be a prisoner at the moment.

442
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,199
Speaker 1: I've thought Kansas City. I thought Buffalo is gonna come

443
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:38,960
Speaker 1: out of there, and if it wasn't Buffalo's Kansas City.

444
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,120
Speaker 1: I just think Buffalo or Kansas City playing at home

445
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 1: with mahomes. Whether it's a one hundred percent or not,

446
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 1: who knows. But I think Cincinnati will scheme it up

447
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:50,639
Speaker 1: and make it tough for him. But I think Kansas

448
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,639
Speaker 1: City in the end will not let four times in

449
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,520
Speaker 1: a row it won't happen. So I'm going Kansas City,

450
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:59,639
Speaker 1: and you gotta twist my arm or go at Philadelphia.

451
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,439
Speaker 1: But I'm San Francisco, Kansas City, San Francisco. Yeah, I mean,

452
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 1: I'll be pulling for Demico. Trust me, he's family, you know,

453
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 1: whether he's the head coach or not. I'm pulling for Demiko.

454
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 1: But in fact, if he's not going to be the

455
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 1: head coach, then you want the other guys to be

456
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:15,160

466
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 1: do I always say about Mahomes, it's the runs that

467
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,879
Speaker 1: kill you as much as anything at select times. And

00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 1: he won't be able to do that, you would think

469
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:54,480
Speaker 1: as well as he usually does. All Right, that's gonna
