It's The Herd. Whatever platform you're on, thanks 10 00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 1: for making us part of your day. I have a 11 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 1: very interesting topic in about five minutes I'm gonna get 12 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 1: to before I get to my picks. Now, I will 13 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: admit I'm gonna stay away from Chiefs Lions. I want 14 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:51,839 Speaker 1: to watch the game. I think it's a field goal 15 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: game either way. I think Kansas City is better than 16 00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: people think, but I think Detroit's run game is demoralizing 17 00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 1: and clock controlling and difficult, so I'm gonna stay away 18 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 1: from that. I'm taking some ugly teams this week. 19 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 3: I have no fears, so I'll be discussing Ceast Lions later. 20 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 3: Some numbers for you not great for your number one 21 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:10,559 Speaker 3: team in the heart hierarch. 22 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: So let me just say this you feast on ugly teams. 23 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 1: You bet Carolina more than like Carolina guy at but 24 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,959 Speaker 1: I I got my picks this week and I like him. 25 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:23,479 Speaker 1: Here we go. 26 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:27,960 Speaker 2: Let's blaze it up up. 27 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 4: It's Collins blazing fuck Seahawks at check. 28 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,039 Speaker 1: Ah Seattle plus one and a half go money line. 29 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 1: They're gonna win this puppy out right. One of five 30 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 1: teams to hold a fourth quarter lead in every game. 31 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,559 Speaker 1: Even the games they lost, they could have won. Number 32 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 1: two scoring offense. Since Week two. They've been a great 33 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: road team with Mike McDonald eight game road winning streak, 34 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 1: and donald is on an absolute eater in his last 35 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 1: three weeks of passer rating over one thirty. The Jags 36 00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: on short rest off a highly emotion no win, probably 37 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 1: the biggest Jags win in several years. Offensively, they are 38 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: terrible on third down. The Seahawks played their worst defensive 39 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,639 Speaker 1: game of the season. They'll be in a bad mood. 40 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 1: Watch Seattle's defense come back. Revert to what we know. 41 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:23,080 Speaker 1: They are the turnover regression for Jacksonville. They're not going 42 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 1: to keep getting three and four turnovers a game. Seattle 43 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:31,359 Speaker 1: wins outright in a bad mood. Cross Country thirty twenty seven. 44 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,639 Speaker 1: Hawks rebound from that loss last week. 45 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:36,079 Speaker 2: Patriots six seat. 46 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: Take the under Patriots Saints under forty five and a 47 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 1: half points. Neither team runs the ball right. Patriots and 48 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 1: Saints are scoring under twenty points in half their games 49 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: this year. New England's again coming off an emotional, dramatic, 50 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: tough road win. I think they come back down to earth. 51 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: I think they win, but it's going to be ugly 52 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: and low scoring. They're a top ten scoring defense. Christian 53 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 1: Gonzalez now he's back. It's hard to throw on them. 54 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 1: The Saints Spencer Rattler's interesting nine touchdown passes an eleven 55 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: career starts. These are two teams still finding their way. 56 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:18,239 Speaker 1: Can't run the ball. Patriots win, but take the under. 57 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 1: Let's say at twenty one to twenty ugly choppie game. 58 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: Take the under. 59 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:25,920 Speaker 2: Chargers at DOLFHI. 60 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: Can't believe it, but I'm gonna take Miami plus the 61 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: four and a half. Listen two at home has been 62 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: good his last seven home games. He's not the problem. 63 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: One twelve passer rating. Chargers could be on their third 64 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 1: running back and their third left tackle. They are a 65 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: mess and what that does they settle for field goals. 66 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 1: They are struggling in the red zone, so even if 67 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: they dominate time of possession, they're not gonna dominate in 68 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: the red zone. Justin Herbert, three straight games with at 69 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: least one interception. So I get a team traveling cross 70 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 1: country on backups to backups, a Miami coach fighting for 71 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: his career, and they're getting four and a half at home. 72 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna take the Dolphins. Chargers probably win 73 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: this game twenty four to twenty three. I'm absolutely taking 74 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: the points with the Dolphins. Titan said Raiders again, I'm 75 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: betting ugly this week. I like the Raiders minus three 76 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: and a half. They're coming off a humiliating road loss. 77 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,839 Speaker 1: What the teams do when they're humiliated. The Giants got 78 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 1: humiliated last week they beat the Eagles. They have found 79 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: a rushing game with Ashton genty. Look at the last 80 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 1: two weeks for the Raiders one hundred and seventy three 81 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 1: yards rushing yards per game. So they're gonna lean on that. 82 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: And folks, Tennessee's awful forget to win last week. They're awful. Hell, 83 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 1: the twenty points are fewer and four to five games 84 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: allowing six yards of play, so again, I don't love Gino. 85 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna run the ball. It's gonna be ugly. 86 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 1: The Raiders were humiliated. Maybe it's one of their few 87 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,919 Speaker 1: wins on the year, but I'm gonna take it. Swallow 88 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: the points. Twenty six seventeen over. What I think in 89 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: Tennessee right now is easily the worst team in the league. 90 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 2: Bears at Commanders. 91 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: My favorite bet of the week is the Commander's minus 92 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,280 Speaker 1: four and a half. They're two and zero at home, 93 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 1: both blowout wins last three weeks, averaging twenty seven plus 94 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: points in three games. Okay, so they're getting points on 95 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: the board. Jayden Daniels last week looked excellent according to PFF. 96 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: They also have the best special teams and their defense 97 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: is getting after it upfront. So I think you're gonna 98 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: see the Washington of last year. Terry mcclaurin could play 99 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 1: the Bears. They've lost four straight in prime time. They're 100 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: not a rise to the moment franchise. They've been a 101 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 1: bad road team forever. Their defense is allowing the most yards. 102 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: Do you know that lost in all this Caleb Williams discussion. 103 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: Their defense is allowing six points, seven yards of play. 104 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 1: It's atrocious. The Commanders win thirty three twenty six. J 105 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: Mack doesn't love my picks. I'm taking some ugly I'm 106 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 1: taking the points in Miami. At home, I'm taking the Raiders. 107 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: Raiders had the Bears beat last week if not for 108 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 1: that field goal. You don't like my picks. You know 109 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: what happened. 110 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,359 Speaker 3: If you lie down with dogs, you get fleas colin 111 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 3: and there there's some gross this year, so I respect that. 112 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 3: By the way, did you look at the Seahawks' injury report. 113 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 3: Three of the four starters in the secondary maybe down 114 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 3: this week? Not great at all against Trevor Lawrence who's 115 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 3: slinging it. 116 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 1: So you're gonna take a team to take it. That 117 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: is literally kind of bipolarish at home after the most 118 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,480 Speaker 1: important win for the franchise national TV game in years. 119 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 1: I mean, let's be honest about Jacksonville. When's the last 120 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: time they played back to back great games against good teams. 121 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: Here's what I'm surprised that you're taking close spreads. There's 122 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 1: some big ones out there. 123 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 4: Big. 124 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 3: It looks like Lamar's not going to go inter sults 125 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 3: are big. Looks like Kyler's on this show what did 126 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 3: I do a week ago? 127 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 1: Bills are going to crush the same Packers are going 128 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: to crush the Cowboys. Chargers are going to crush the 129 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: Giants last what was last night? Eagle is going to 130 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: crush I stayed away from all of them, all right, 131 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: But you know what game I actually like. I could 132 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: be out of my mind here, don't tell me. Dolphins. Raiders. Yeah, 133 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: that you're out of your mind for. 134 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 3: So when you when you they're running the ball now right, 135 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 3: good run defense to I mean, I can just think 136 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 3: at everything else and you're not good. 137 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 1: So I want you to think about this. I'm not 138 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 1: saying it's true, but I just want you to think 139 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 1: about it. When Russell Wilson was dominating the league, we 140 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 1: were absolutely sure Hall of Famer, magical. The future of 141 00:07:54,440 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 1: the sport is Jalen Hurts. Think about this the next 142 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. Oh, let me throw some things at you. 143 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: Both are undersized, but thick and athletic. Both had to 144 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: transfer in college. Their coaches were like, yeah, I'm going 145 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: to start somebody else in college. Both throw a nice 146 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 1: deep ball, but neither was a first round pick. Both 147 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: are playmakers from the pocket, but they're not pocket quarterbacks. 148 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:35,439 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson and Jalen very successful with stacked rosters when 149 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 1: they have a run game and a great defense. Both 150 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: two super Bowls, win one, lose one. We like their personalities, 151 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 1: but neither is beloved by teammates. I've been told that 152 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 1: about Jalen Hurts. We've seen it with Russell and in 153 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: their Super Bowl winning season. In Russ's and in Jalen, 154 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 1: they threw under two hundred year yards Russell seven times, 155 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 1: Hurts eight. There's a lot of similarities to the thick, mature, elusive, 156 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: not great from the pocket. How many times has Greg 157 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: co Cell come on this show? He did it for 158 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 1: years with Russell Wilson, he said, Russell Wilson has planned 159 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 1: ad libs. He's not great from the pocket. That's why, 160 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 1: said Greg Cosell, he often throws the deep ball because 161 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 1: he's not good in the middle of the field. What 162 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: did Greg Cosell say this week about Jalen Hurts. He 163 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 1: doesn't throw the ball well over the middle of the field. 164 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: Go listen to Greg co Cell with Russell in his 165 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 1: prime and Jalen. It's the same thing. It's the same thing. 166 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: Consistently under two hundred yards when you've got the players 167 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: so and I loved Russell and I'm the defender at 168 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: all costs, which hurts, But I mean now you got 169 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: players only meetings A J Brown. Jalen Hurts drama. Russell 170 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 1: had teammate drama. Here was Jalen on his struggles last night. 171 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 5: I want to go out there and play the type 172 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 5: of ball we know we're capable of playing, and a 173 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:21,839 Speaker 5: lot of that, you know, for the Brandon both kind 174 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 5: of established ourselves to play. It's been playing with good detail, 175 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 5: being smarter situations, and being able to capitalize on some 176 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,440 Speaker 5: of these big point swings in the game. And so 177 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 5: we got to be a better We got to do 178 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 5: a better job at that. And I have to leave 179 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 5: better in terms of executing in those situations because it 180 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,839 Speaker 5: starts with me in the red zone in two minutes. 181 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 6: Operationally. 182 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,679 Speaker 1: Oh, he's great at the podium. Russell Wilson always been 183 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 1: great at the podium. Mature, start, start, You don't like 184 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 1: the comms. But by the way, last week, when I 185 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 1: suggested Russell Wilson wouldn't be a Hall of Famer, push back. 186 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 1: Would you vote in Jalen Hurts to the Hall of fame. 187 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 1: I mean, neither's a first round pick, neither great from 188 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 1: the pocket, neither beloved by teammates. Both get to a 189 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 1: couple Super Bowls, but even in their super Bowl winning seasons, 190 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 1: half the games they are under two hundred yards. Both 191 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: had drama with some teammates. I'm not saying it's out there, 192 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 1: but it's interesting. 193 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:27,960 Speaker 2: Is it not? 194 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: Kind of interesting? Just you know, I'm not saying it 195 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: with great conviction. I'm saying it with great curiosity, but 196 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:43,439 Speaker 1: it's it's kind of interesting. Our quarterback whisper is around 197 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: the corner, Brady Quinn shows up. We got I'm telling you, Oregon, Indiana, USC, Michigan, 198 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 1: just a couple of them.

He 218 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,960 Speaker 1: is joining us on a day in which we think 219 00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 1: the New York Giants have found their franchis quarterback. And Jordan, 220 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 1: it could be bon Nix, it could be Josh Allen. 221 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 1: It's always turbulent. This is not a summer flight to Arizona. 222 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 1: It's bumpy, hits rough. So I watched Jackson Dart last week, 223 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:14,559 Speaker 1: and then I watch him this week, and I look 224 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 1: at quarterbacks and I go, can he make throws or 225 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 1: make plays that I'm like, Wow, that's special. I think 226 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 1: I've seen special with Jackson Dart. Not consistent, what do 227 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 1: you see you're the master at this what do you see? 228 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 9: Well, I just like to keep it simple, and he's 229 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,960 Speaker 9: two in one, and I'm not concerned with who they 230 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 9: lost to and who they beat, because you could make 231 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 9: the argument, man, how do you lose to the Saints? 232 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 9: And then you can also make the same argument and 233 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 9: go how they beat the Eagles? I think he's two 234 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 9: and one, And he's two and one with three big obstacles, 235 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 9: which makes it more impressive. 236 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 6: One is personnel. 237 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:55,079 Speaker 9: We saw last night on the broadcast all the players 238 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 9: that aren't playing at receiver for them, right, I mean, 239 00:13:57,760 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 9: I'm like googling these guys' names. 240 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:00,120 Speaker 3: Right. 241 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 9: So the one is, you know he's playing with with 242 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 9: you know, a short deck, an empty cabinet, whatever cliche 243 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 9: you want to use. Where you got Wandell Robinson's his 244 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 9: go to guy? Okay, So that's one. 245 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 6: Two, he's playing on a team that's lost more than 246 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 6: they've won. 247 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 9: I'm not calling them losers, but they've lost more than 248 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 9: they've won this franchise the last few years. And so 249 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 9: you're not entering into a well oiled machine where everyone 250 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 9: is accustomed to winning the close game, right. 251 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 6: And then three, he's a rookie. And I've said this on. 252 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 9: Your show before, and we've talked about this off camera, 253 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 9: is I think quarterbacks are survivalists and they got to 254 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 9: do what they got to do to survive, and early 255 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 9: in guys careers, and there's a connection here to Josh 256 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 9: Allen on this too, sometimes you got to run around 257 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 9: and make plays. I don't think his career he's going 258 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 9: to average fifty yards rushing a game, but he has 259 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 9: through his first three starts because he's had to. These 260 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 9: aren't designed quarterback runs. These are plays that he's making, 261 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 9: and so you know he's he's doing all three. He's 262 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 9: handling all three of those obstacles well to the tune 263 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 9: of two and one. And the other thing that's overarching 264 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 9: on this is that, like the elephant in the room, like, 265 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 9: he's also doing it in New York where everything's overscrutinized, 266 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 9: and a lot of young quarterbacks have a hard time 267 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 9: doing that. 268 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: So I want to ask you about Listen, there's a 269 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 1: lot of smart offensive guys out there in the league 270 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 1: and out of it, like yourself, Kyle Shanahan. I thought 271 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 1: Mac Jones it was done. I thought his temperament was off. 272 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 1: I had heard things inside the building at New England 273 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 1: that were not winning kind of quarterback traits from people 274 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: I trust, And all of a sudden he goes and 275 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 1: he's humble and he's always thrown a nice ball. What 276 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: is I mean? Kyle obviously is just better than most 277 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 1: at this? Is it the talking? The dialogue? 278 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 6: Is? 279 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: Is it mechanics? 280 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 6: Like? 281 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: What is it about Kyle and quarterbacks that almost always 282 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: elevates them? 283 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 9: Well, Colin, you're a world class communicator, right, and so 284 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 9: at some point you learned a lot of how to communicate. 285 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 6: Right. 286 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 9: So for me, when I was doing more public speaking 287 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 9: and get in front, I used to watch this guy, 288 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 9: Simon Sinek, and he has this famous video where it's 289 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 9: all about the why. Whether you're in sales, whether you're 290 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 9: trying to have a take on TV where you're trying 291 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 9: to lead a room full of people, you got to 292 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 9: have a take. His thing was about the why, and 293 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 9: I really took that as a coach, and the more 294 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 9: I can connect why somebody needs to do something as 295 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 9: opposed to what to do, the more helpful I've been 296 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 9: as a coach, and now as I have clients college 297 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 9: and pro and even high school where the coaches. I've 298 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 9: just come to the conclusion coaches tell you what to do, 299 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 9: but not necessarily why to do it, and maybe they 300 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 9: know why, but they have a hard time explaining it. 301 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 6: I didn't really. 302 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 9: Learn this about Kyle Shanahan, though I've known him a 303 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 9: long time. I have a I interviewed with him when 304 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 9: he was the quarterback coach at the Houston Texans when 305 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 9: I was at the Combine. I mean, I've known this 306 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 9: guy forever, but until Sam Darnold went there to back 307 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 9: up Brock, who. 308 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,479 Speaker 6: I've spent a lot of time with Sam and really understood. 309 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 5: Oh. 310 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 6: I think that's what it is about Kyle Shanahan. 311 00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 9: He gets all this love for his play design and 312 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 9: how he used his personnel. 313 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 6: I don't know, it's subjective. 314 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 9: I don't know if he does that better than everyone, 315 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:09,159 Speaker 9: but I think and been learning how Sam's experience and 316 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 9: how much he grew in one year of not starting was. 317 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 9: I think Kyle helps quarterbacks understand why they are doing 318 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 9: this footwork, Why we are going to have this guy 319 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 9: outside release and then cross his face, Why we are 320 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 9: going to set run. 321 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 6: This to set that up? 322 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 9: And I just think Kyle's why as it pertains to 323 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 9: helping quarterbacks understand the nuances of the offense is why 324 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 9: guys go there and play their best football. And it's 325 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 9: also why and credit to my business partner Mike White, 326 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 9: who's a Niner fan and works with all the guys 327 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 9: with go back to that draft of Mac Jones, because 328 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 9: we had Trevor Lawrence in our group, Mac Jones and 329 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,880 Speaker 9: Trey Lance and all that, which is why Mike from 330 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 9: day one has been saying Max Jones is a perfect 331 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 9: fit in Kyle shanahan offense. Don't worry about what he 332 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:56,920 Speaker 9: can't do, and so he's he's getting some you know, 333 00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 9: some love for that right now, because as we've seen 334 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 9: through three games with Max Jones, it doesn't matter what 335 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 9: Mac Jones can't do. 336 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 1: He can do all the things that Kyle requires. So 337 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,359 Speaker 1: you never gave up on Sam Donald. He and Baker 338 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 1: put on a clinic last week. It was one of 339 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 1: the most entertaining games I've seen. It was I mean, 340 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: it was Canadian Football League. It was just up and 341 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: down the field, and you never gave up on Donald. 342 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:23,880 Speaker 1: I wondered if he could ever get the reckless I've 343 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: always said this, you can coach a lot can you 344 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 1: get the reckless out of Carson Wentz or Sam Donald? 345 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:33,640 Speaker 1: I didn't know if you could. Why didn't you give 346 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,879 Speaker 1: up on Donald when everybody else did? Well? 347 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 9: If you go back to Sam in high school, in college, 348 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,959 Speaker 9: she was a playmaker, right and there was some incredible 349 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,639 Speaker 9: memories from college, you know, Rosebull, MVP and all that stuff, 350 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:48,120 Speaker 9: some high highs. But I remember going through the draft 351 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 9: process with Sam and every GM and owner wanted to 352 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 9: talk about the fact that he was a fumbler. 353 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:53,239 Speaker 6: And I think he had like eleven his last year 354 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 6: at I see, and then you go. 355 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 9: Through this first couple of years in the NFL, and 356 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 9: I don't have the stats in front of me, but 357 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 9: he was a fumbler. And it's not the coaches didn't 358 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 9: tell him keep two hands on the ball. But even 359 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 9: that clip right there, as he's transitioning from right to left, 360 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,640 Speaker 9: going through his front side, you know he's bought into 361 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:14,159 Speaker 9: this idea that movement and being under control can allow 362 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 9: you to not take your hand off the ball to 363 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 9: get going and running. 364 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 6: And so we're. 365 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 9: Coming up on twenty something games where he hasn't taken 366 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 9: his left hand off the ball in a situation where 367 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:26,439 Speaker 9: he hasn't or where he shouldn't, And so it's that 368 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,680 Speaker 9: sounds really in the weeds and detailed. The reason I never 369 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 9: give up on him is because he's been focused on 370 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,120 Speaker 9: a bunch of things like that, He's willing to get 371 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,680 Speaker 9: drugged through the m out of New York, be a bust, 372 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 9: hear all the things that everybody says about him, and 373 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 9: just every off season reset. 374 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 6: And so I think I've said this to you, Colin. 375 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 9: There's certain quarterbacks like Sam, like my brother where because 376 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 9: they have the ability to reset every year, regardless if 377 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 9: it was terrible or awesome, because the way they don't 378 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,880 Speaker 9: cut corners ever, and they do all the little things right, 379 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,640 Speaker 9: and their ability to block out all the noise. Players 380 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 9: like that, and obviously with a lot of talent. I've 381 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:04,400 Speaker 9: been telling them, and I've been telling Sam for about 382 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 9: five years now, the same line over and over and 383 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 9: over again. There will be a time and a place 384 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 9: for All you have to do is play to the 385 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 9: best of your abilities, and you'll be in every game 386 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 9: with a chance to make a run at the end, verbatim. 387 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 9: And that's what we're seeing here out of Sam and Baker, right. 388 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 9: And I know you've had your issues with Baker over 389 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 9: the years. I didn't necessarily disagree with you. But it's 390 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:25,440 Speaker 9: when you're winning and it works and it's in the 391 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 9: right environment, it's. 392 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:27,640 Speaker 6: Not a problem. 393 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I said this. Cleveland is a rough environment, 394 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 1: a pulsive owner, kind of a bitter press. Everybody in 395 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 1: Cleveland poke Baker in the ribs, and everybody in Tampa 396 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 1: opens doors for him. It's more chill. He's got a 397 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:42,119 Speaker 1: very supportive GM and owner. An environment for people with 398 00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 1: fiery personalities is key. So there's two questions I want 399 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: to ask you. Fifteen quarterbacks now have one hundred plus 400 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:52,640 Speaker 1: passer rating fifteen and it was six two years ago. 401 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: Some of this is there's a lot of good offensive 402 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,160 Speaker 1: coaches out there. Some of it maybe we've had very nice, 403 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: warm fall weather. Even in Buffalo it's eighty degrees. Maybe 404 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 1: it's that. Maybe it's because everybody plays zone so it's 405 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,639 Speaker 1: a kind of throw to a spot, and these guys 406 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: from seven on seven to coaching, you know, yourself included, 407 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: they're just these guys are good beating up zones. I 408 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,199 Speaker 1: don't know what it is, but it's like the Golden Age. 409 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,159 Speaker 1: Is it the quarterback? Is it the coaching. Is it 410 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 1: the zone defense? Half the league is one hundred passer wady? 411 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 9: Why, Well, I don't think it's the defense because as 412 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 9: I watch tape every week, there's a bunch of stuff 413 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 9: people are running on third down that didn't exist three 414 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 9: years ago, and it continually evolves. 415 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 6: So I don't think it's the defense. 416 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 9: Right These these pass rushers aren't getting a little skinnier 417 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 9: and a little slower. But I think what it is 418 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:46,919 Speaker 9: is the quarterback and the offensive coordinators ability to manufacture 419 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 9: more hypercentage throws. 420 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 6: And it sounds simple, right, like, let's just. 421 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 9: Get the ball out of your hands and let your 422 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:55,439 Speaker 9: playmakers make plays, says every coach ever. We got a 423 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 9: big you know, the little bill's third and fourth grade flag. 424 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,080 Speaker 9: We play tomorrow with my fourth grader. We're going to 425 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,400 Speaker 9: operate under the same pretense of let's get the ball 426 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,399 Speaker 9: out of our hands and let our guys eat. But 427 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 9: I think it's being on the same page and the evolution, 428 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 9: like we've talked about in how high school and college 429 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 9: what quarterbacks are asked to do, and I think there's 430 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:16,199 Speaker 9: more ways to in with motions and with shifts and 431 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:21,479 Speaker 9: with formations to be able to create more high percentage throws. 432 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 9: So if I can just have a quarterback get five 433 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:27,880 Speaker 9: more completions a game and they average four to eight 434 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 9: yards of completion, you start doing simple math. That might 435 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 9: move your pastor rating up five, six, ten points right there. 436 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 6: And that's if you're not throwing the playmakers. 437 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, one more pro and then college. Jalen Hurts. 438 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 1: Greg Cosell's been saying this. He said it years ago 439 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 1: about Russell. He said, Colin, he throws a deep ball, 440 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:52,880 Speaker 1: some of it out of necessity, doesn't You can see 441 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: there's times there's stuff open in the middle of the field. 442 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,639 Speaker 1: He doesn't see it. And Jalen Hurts similarly, Greg co 443 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 1: Sell has said to me times he just doesn't see 444 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: stuff in the middle. He's very good up the sidelines, 445 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 1: great kid, accurate. I watch Jalen Hurts and there it 446 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:12,639 Speaker 1: does appear that he is better throwing outside than the 447 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:17,919 Speaker 1: interior where Brady lived or Manning lived. It kind of 448 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,879 Speaker 1: makes sense, Jordan, because offensive lineman, how are six seven 449 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 1: like that's what the world has produced. When you watch 450 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:28,439 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts and the struggles, what do you see? 451 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:31,919 Speaker 9: Well, I just think I'm not going to say it 452 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:34,919 Speaker 9: has nothing to do with him and his personal like 453 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 9: his game. 454 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:39,679 Speaker 6: But you keep replacing coordinators every year, and. 455 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 9: Because whether excuse me, whether you're doing that because your 456 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,400 Speaker 9: team is struggling or because your team's in the Super 457 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 9: Bowl every year, either way you start shifting coordinators. 458 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 6: The media and the fans want to make it about scheme. 459 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,119 Speaker 9: This guy's a good coordinator, that guy's a bad coordinator. 460 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,679 Speaker 9: But the reality is you don't get that continuity, and 461 00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 9: you can't continue to get to like level four, level 462 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:04,200 Speaker 9: five levels in protections, in routes, in reads and combinations. 463 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,120 Speaker 9: I think one of the most underrated thing in sports 464 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 9: that I don't see owners do is say, we've got 465 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 9: a great offensive coordinator, let's just pay. 466 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:14,119 Speaker 6: Him like a head coach. 467 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 9: If it's going to cost us a chance to win 468 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,200 Speaker 9: a Super Bowl and make a run, let's just drastically 469 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 9: overpay him so we don't lose him and do what 470 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 9: we got to do to keep him. And unfortunately, he 471 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,679 Speaker 9: had Shane Stiking and then he had Killen Moore, and 472 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 9: I honestly don't know the guy's name right now, who's 473 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,960 Speaker 9: the coordinator in Philly? And I think that's a big 474 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,879 Speaker 9: portion of it. And then the second part and we 475 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 9: saw it on that clip right there, the out route 476 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 9: that got picked is. I still think with Jalen there's 477 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 9: a part of his game that needs to evolved in 478 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 9: the simple, the uncontested throats, the simple movements getting yourself 479 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 9: to the same spot. That's the place where I actually 480 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 9: see accuracy fall off. And those are like unforced airs, 481 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 9: and that's something that can be built over time. All 482 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,680 Speaker 9: of his momentum still going left, he never gets into 483 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 9: his front side, that ball goes inside, and that's just 484 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 9: what happens. But this is also a super Bowl and 485 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,680 Speaker 9: VP and a winner and a guy with a unique 486 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 9: skill set. But what you got to do when when 487 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 9: you're down, what you got to do when you have 488 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 9: a team like this it's not living up to standard 489 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,720 Speaker 9: on offense, is you can't miss those balls down the field, 490 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:15,679 Speaker 9: and particularly when you got guys who are frustrated with 491 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 9: their production. 492 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: One last question, I love Dante more at Oregon. Cleveland's 493 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: got two first round picks. Rams have two first round picks, 494 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: Giants have their quarterback. There's about four or five teams, 495 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:30,440 Speaker 1: I don't know. I watched them at Penn State game 496 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:34,879 Speaker 1: and I went wow, stoic, calm, accurate better as the 497 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: game went. This is what you do for a living. 498 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:41,400 Speaker 1: You told me years before people talked about many quarterbacks 499 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:43,639 Speaker 1: they would work. What do you see with that kid? 500 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:45,120 Speaker 6: This kid's a star. 501 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 9: I think the national media is going to start to 502 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:49,880 Speaker 9: I'm here, you are talking about them, right. 503 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 6: I think you're going to start to learn more about 504 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:52,199 Speaker 6: this guy. 505 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 9: So I actually want to use this minute to just 506 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:56,719 Speaker 9: help you better understand who he is, and your listeners 507 00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 9: understand who is because they're going to watch him play 508 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 9: and come up with their opinions. Honestly, he's set up 509 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 9: for a Heisman National championship type year. But I've known 510 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 9: him since he was in high school, went through Leader 511 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,119 Speaker 9: Lemon process and all that, And he was at UCLA 512 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 9: and I was up there throwing with Burrow and a 513 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,360 Speaker 9: couple of guys at UCLA when Chip Kelly was there, 514 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:18,120 Speaker 9: and I just got done hanging out with Dante throwing 515 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 9: a little bit, and I was asking Chip about him, 516 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 9: and I said, Hey, how's Dante doing and all that, 517 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 9: and he goes, Dante is one of the most appreciative 518 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 9: football players I've ever coached, And I'm like, what do 519 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 9: you mean? 520 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 6: Appreciative. 521 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 9: Well, you grew up in a really tough part of Detroit, 522 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 9: and so his teammates and a lot of guys knew that. 523 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 9: A lot of times at UCLA he would just in 524 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 9: the middle of the night, just walk around campus late 525 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 9: at night because where he grew up, he couldn't do that. 526 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 6: And he was just he was always talking about how 527 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:45,399 Speaker 6: grateful he is. 528 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 9: You say, by the way, he's not even playing at 529 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,879 Speaker 9: this time, He's just so grateful to be there and 530 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 9: be around this and the environment and what they had, 531 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 9: and that was at UCLA. And so if that's your 532 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 9: foundation of like gratitude and humility, and then we see 533 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:03,200 Speaker 9: what we're and he's I think just warming up, you 534 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 9: have a very sustainable athlete. Because if that's their foundation 535 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 9: and their talented and their clutch, I mean, his face 536 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:14,919 Speaker 9: didn't change once in that game, then you're set up 537 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 9: for success. And we've seen how productive these and efficient 538 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 9: these quarterbacks coming out of Oregon have been, from Dylan 539 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,719 Speaker 9: to Bot even before that, and so I actually think 540 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,439 Speaker 9: this s guy's the limit. I won't be surprised if 541 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 9: everybody has them number one on their marks coming out 542 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 9: here soon. 543 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 6: Whether or not he Leaves. I don't know. 544 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,959 Speaker 9: I think he's a big picture guy, but he's definitely 545 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,119 Speaker 9: set up for success. I don't see a repeat of 546 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:35,960 Speaker 9: what happened last year where they win the big one 547 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,479 Speaker 9: in the season and then they come up short at 548 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:38,719 Speaker 9: the end. 549 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 6: I think it's going to be Oregon here in the 550 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 6: mix at the end. 551 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 1: Okay.

If I'm starting a franchise, well, I'd like 604 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 1: to see him play a single NBA game. I've seen 605 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: enough in college.

He's set to face Lamar 624 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:11,959 Speaker 3: Jackson this week. Oops, Lamar Jackson is still not one 625 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 3: hundred percent and he may not play well. When Verse 626 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 3: was asked about it, here's what he said about not 627 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 3: facing Lamar. 628 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 6: Curious about it. I want to play Lamar just because, like, 629 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 6: you know. 630 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 10: He's one of the best quarterbacks you know, like currently, 631 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 10: and then also you know, you put him in that 632 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 10: conversation of not just running quarterbacks for quarterbacks every like 633 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 10: he's up in that conversation Pat Mahomes, Lamar is definitely 634 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 10: on there. I want to get Josh Allen. He owed 635 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 10: me a couple. But uh, I thought Tom Brady was 636 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:41,960 Speaker 10: gonna come back, so I thought I was gonna get 637 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 10: my shot of him. But now there's a couple of 638 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 10: dudes in the league. I definitely got my eye on 639 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 10: that I want to get at least one time. 640 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 1: I'm not touching this game. I'm not touching it. Ravens 641 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 1: have too much pride. Maybe a few of those guys 642 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,479 Speaker 1: are coming back to play. I'm not touching Rams will win, 643 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:57,200 Speaker 1: but I'm not touching with him. A little chicken over there. 644 00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 3: Huh, you're afraid to touch the Rams last night you 645 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 3: were throwing Levice. I was not. 646 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 2: I did not. 647 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:06,280 Speaker 3: I warry you about the bill, but I wasn't. Like 648 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 3: that's one of my picks. It definitely would not have 649 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 3: made my picks here headlines. Let me ask you, though, 650 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 3: he said, Lamar Jackson's one of the best quarterbacks ever. 651 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:15,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. 652 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 3: Us see, he's already like a top ten quarterback all time. 653 00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 1: Is that what we're talking ever? Well, in the history 654 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 1: of the league. Yes, how many people have played quarterback? 655 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 1: A thousand, let's say a thousand. If you're top fifteen, 656 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 1: you are absolutely elite. Is Lamar. Now, Lamar might be close. 657 00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 3: Can you be top fifteen without getting to a super Bowl? 658 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 1: How is that possible? San Marino got to one and 659 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 1: he's top five. He got to a super Bowl period. 660 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,480 Speaker 1: I mean, I get it. Lamar's got the MVP. I'm 661 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 1: talking you're talking resume, I'm talking talent. 662 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 3: Well, talent is extremely subjective. Jared Versus might see talent 663 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 3: here you see and you watch Lamar, do you think 664 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 3: a bunch of people go, you know, he's actually slow? 665 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 3: Not that subjective. Anybody watched Jaws Allan and go kind 666 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 3: of a weak arm. It's not that subjective. It's it's talented. 667 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 3: People saw Cam Newton as talented. 668 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: You know, how did that end up? Well, well again, 669 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 1: he's not Lamar Jackson not consistent. He was super talented. 670 00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I like these discussions. 671 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 2: I know you don't. 672 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,600 Speaker 3: Final story, Colin is the Bengals traded for Joe Flacco 673 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,320 Speaker 3: and uh he was basically announced as the starter after 674 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 3: walking into the building. Jamar Chase, Jamar, are you ready 675 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 3: for this? Jamar Chase was asked about his new quarterback. 676 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 1: Here we go. 677 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 11: Everybody know who he is, you know, one of the 678 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 11: greatest quarterbacks I ever played, but it's good get him 679 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 11: out there, and we had some good reps in the day, 680 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 11: getting a good filler of the offense. He calls, he 681 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 11: plays a little fast, so that was something NW just hearing. 682 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 11: Butter and he's pretty smooth, you know, I mean he 683 00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 11: knows the inswered ouse. No, I appreciate organizations trying to 684 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 11: trying to make this work. 685 00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 1: So gotta make it work. No, I'm not a perfect 686 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 1: I like that. 687 00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 4: You like that at the end. 688 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,360 Speaker 3: Appreciate the organization which you bang on more than anybody 689 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:09,799 Speaker 3: trying to make this well. 690 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 1: I appreciate when an employee is supportive of the guys upstairs. 691 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 1: Bengals drive me nuts, But I like that's a that's 692 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 1: a smart supportive or is this man? 693 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:22,400 Speaker 2: These guys stink the organization? 694 00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:24,200 Speaker 1: How I feel about the Bengals. 695 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:26,840 Speaker 3: I want you to pile on more because there's a 696 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 3: certain producer here fifteen feet away from me. 697 00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,600 Speaker 1: He complains about the Bengals more than anybody.

He's not delusion. 700 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 3: I'm a realistic Jet stink. Jack Taylor should have been 701 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:39,000 Speaker 3: fired two years ago. 702 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:42,800 Speaker 1: Boy, you love to fire people. 703 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:43,160 Speaker 11: I do. 704 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:48,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're fired.

That is a big one 717 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:23,640 Speaker 1: for the Trojans. Michigan can lose that game. They're on 718 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:26,839 Speaker 1: the road, they got a freshman quarterback Michigan. They can 719 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:29,919 Speaker 1: lose that game. That's fine us. He can't lose that game. 720 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 1: Pressure is on the Indiana could go to Oregon and 721 00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:35,319 Speaker 1: they can lose that game. 722 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:37,799 Speaker 3: I called about tickets to this because it's a hot, 723 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:39,680 Speaker 3: hot ticket, and they said, you've got a box there. 724 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:40,880 Speaker 1: I could probably squeeze in. 725 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:41,600 Speaker 3: You can go. 726 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: I'm not I have I'm watching the game with Actually 727 00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: the other. 728 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:51,440 Speaker 3: Side you're hanging out with Michigan people who cowherd. A 729 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 3: lot of you people fly over the Midwest. I committed 730 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 3: to it. Linked Riley is not a happy man hearing that. 731 00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,239 Speaker 1: Oh boy, it's the Herd. 732 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 4: You want to catch live editions of The Herd weekdays 733 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:05,960 Speaker 4: in noon Easter nine am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio 734 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,439 Speaker 4: FS one and the iHeartRadio app. 735 00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:12,399 Speaker 3: Play the Fox Super six NFL Challenge.

One of the questions 738 00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:23,440 Speaker 3: is which quarterback will have the most passing yards this week? Stafford, 739 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:28,759 Speaker 3: Dak Daniel Jones or Sammy Darnold Colin. 740 00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:33,480 Speaker 1: Who you got should be a layup? Well. I think 741 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:36,399 Speaker 1: Stafford against the Ravens is a good spot. I think 742 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,680 Speaker 1: Darnold against the Jags will be interesting. Jacksonville has lived 743 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 1: off turnover creation and that will come back down to earth. 744 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:50,839 Speaker 1: I mean, Jacksonville may may have a recovery somewhere. The 745 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:55,680 Speaker 1: so J McK and I have always disagreed on brock Purty. 746 00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,120 Speaker 1: I think he's fine. I think it's a lot about 747 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 1: Shanahan and the system. He doesn't have winning record, you know, 748 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,920 Speaker 1: when he doesn't have Christian McCaffrey and the team is 749 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:09,320 Speaker 1: better offensively today or as good with Mac Jones. Jalen 750 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:12,360 Speaker 1: Hurts similarly. I love Jalen Hurts, but I think his 751 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:16,440 Speaker 1: intangibles are better than his tangibles is forever I've been 752 00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:20,240 Speaker 1: hearing about size doesn't matter for quarterbacks. Yet does Russell 753 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:22,360 Speaker 1: Wilson doesn't throw the ball well over the middle of 754 00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:26,400 Speaker 1: the field. Either does Tua. Either does Jalen Hurts. Greg 755 00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 1: Cosel looks at every snap. Here's what he said about 756 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts throwing down the middle of the field. 757 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:36,279 Speaker 12: One thing Jalen Hurts has never done particularly well. He's 758 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 12: not a window throw. He doesn't throw the ball between 759 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,680 Speaker 12: the numbers and as I said we were talking earlier, 760 00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:44,279 Speaker 12: fifteen to twenty five yards. In fact, he's got the 761 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:47,239 Speaker 12: fewest attempts of any quarterback in the league throwing the 762 00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:50,600 Speaker 12: ball between fifteen and twenty five yards between the numbers. 763 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:52,160 Speaker 6: He doesn't see the game that way. 764 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,719 Speaker 12: They have to be a running football team, and right 765 00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:56,680 Speaker 12: now they're not running the ball at all, and the 766 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:59,279 Speaker 12: old line is hurt, it's banged up, and it's not 767 00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:01,960 Speaker 12: played anywhere near as well as it has the last 768 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,360 Speaker 12: three four years, when it was arguably the best in 769 00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:04,920 Speaker 12: the league. 770 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:10,080 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, similarly, like Jalen Hurts, had his best years 771 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,759 Speaker 1: when he had a dominant run game. So last year 772 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:18,360 Speaker 1: dominant Eagle run game, Jalen Hurts is very good. This 773 00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:22,399 Speaker 1: year running game struggling, Jalen Hurt's not as good. It's 774 00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,560 Speaker 1: the same with Russell Wilson. He's never had a great 775 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,640 Speaker 1: run game. Didn't have it in Denver, didn't have it 776 00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:29,279 Speaker 1: in Pittsburgh, didn't have it first couple of games without 777 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:32,839 Speaker 1: Skataboo in New York Sctataboo wasn't starting. So it's it's 778 00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:35,920 Speaker 1: it's not anti. But when Greg Cosel comes out and 779 00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 1: tells you, yeah, he's just not he's he can't see 780 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,240 Speaker 1: the field particularly well, Tua has at least been honest 781 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:43,279 Speaker 1: about it. Tua tells you, yeah, there's some throws I 782 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 1: can't see, so they're there. You know, It's like you 783 00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:50,120 Speaker 1: can be an action star and not be a big, strong, 784 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:55,360 Speaker 1: physical actor. But it does help, you know, James Bond, 785 00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 1: you know it helps you know Schwarzenegger, big strong, physical guy. 786 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:03,359 Speaker 1: Sliced a loan Vin Diesel. It helps. If you're kind 787 00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 1: of physically imposing to be an action star, you probably 788 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:09,320 Speaker 1: don't need to be. I mean, Matt Damon isn't. Jason 789 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,200 Speaker 1: Bourne was pretty cool, but it can help. And it's 790 00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:14,439 Speaker 1: like quarterbacks six to two and a half. An up 791 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:17,200 Speaker 1: kind of helps you can see the field better. So 792 00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:19,160 Speaker 1: it's not a knocking anybody. It's just the reality of 793 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,280 Speaker 1: what we have. So the games this weekend. The one 794 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,399 Speaker 1: game I did not put in the Blazing five that 795 00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 1: I will probably regret it is Pittsburgh at home against 796 00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:34,919 Speaker 1: Cleveland starting I think Flaco or excuse me today he's 797 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:38,839 Speaker 1: in Cincinnati starting Dylan Gabriel is I may end up 798 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,279 Speaker 1: regretting it. But the reason I didn't bet it is 799 00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:44,400 Speaker 1: because of last night. Nobody would have guessed the Giant's 800 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:48,799 Speaker 1: house the Eagles. I stay away from a lot of 801 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:53,000 Speaker 1: these divisional games, and I know Pittsburgh should win this game. 802 00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:57,000 Speaker 1: But Mike Tomlin's been a great underdog coach, but Mike 803 00:39:57,080 --> 00:40:00,520 Speaker 1: Doomlin as a favorite has not been as good. Dylan 804 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,680 Speaker 1: Gabriel is the kind of guy that could come out 805 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 1: because if TJ. Watt had a huge year, no he hasn't, 806 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:09,880 Speaker 1: so I look at the Steelers and I'm like, should 807 00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:14,399 Speaker 1: the Steelers win? Absolutely? I think the Steelers will win. 808 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:17,000 Speaker 1: But if Dylan Gabriel come out and was kind of 809 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:21,120 Speaker 1: like eighteen to twenty six and it was just you know, 810 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:24,920 Speaker 1: Cleveland's defense is absolutely legit. Go ask the Packers. 811 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 3: Home road splits are significant. At home, they were great 812 00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:29,839 Speaker 3: against the Packers. Then they go to Detroit and it's like, oh, 813 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:33,319 Speaker 3: they can't stop anybody. Big news, Shdor Sanders was just 814 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:36,600 Speaker 3: named the backup quarterback according to seven Kevin Stefanski. So 815 00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 3: Dylan Gabriel is a tweaked ankle on the opening drive 816 00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 3: away from seeding quarterback to Shador Sanders. 817 00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:47,920 Speaker 1: That game is now must CTV. Well it makes it interesting. 818 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:51,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought it was gonna be Bailey Zappi. I 819 00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:53,600 Speaker 3: still think you had one of the funniest Zappie lines ever. 820 00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:56,640 Speaker 3: Remember Yep Zappie when you were doing like the campaign's love. Yeah, 821 00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:58,280 Speaker 3: I'll never forget that because it was hilarious. 822 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:03,239 Speaker 1: Don't be crappier. We'll see Bailey's happy. No. I, But 823 00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:07,439 Speaker 1: that that's the game. These Divisional Route two weeks ago 824 00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 1: rams are going to crush the Niners.
