0:00:43.040 --> 0:00:47.040
<v Speaker 2>Welcome in What Riven nick Wright Episode two eighty six,

0:00:47.680 --> 0:00:50.600
<v Speaker 2>got a lot to do today, I need I'm trying

0:00:50.600 --> 0:00:53.239
<v Speaker 2>to have this show today not be ninety minutes, so

0:00:53.280 --> 0:00:56.440
<v Speaker 2>we'll hop right into it. Here's what missed the cut? Uh,

0:00:57.200 --> 0:00:59.600
<v Speaker 2>just a ridiculous way for the Colts to lose in

0:00:59.640 --> 0:01:03.960
<v Speaker 2>the sin into their playoff hopes. The NBA Cup final tonight.

0:01:04.400 --> 0:01:06.920
<v Speaker 2>Not in the show, but it is great matchup Jannis

0:01:07.000 --> 0:01:09.880
<v Speaker 2>and Shay and the Drones in New Jersey that I

0:01:09.880 --> 0:01:15.839
<v Speaker 2>have dedicated absolutely zero mental band with two locked into

0:01:15.840 --> 0:01:18.880
<v Speaker 2>the NFL. Also a little poker stuff that I might

0:01:18.880 --> 0:01:21.720
<v Speaker 2>be able to update you guys about Demand's great to

0:01:21.760 --> 0:01:25.240
<v Speaker 2>see you. Hope you had a wonderful weekend. Heard you

0:01:25.280 --> 0:01:28.440
<v Speaker 2>made some great chicken noodle soup. I'm told I was

0:01:28.440 --> 0:01:30.839
<v Speaker 2>told to ask you how how did it turn out?

0:01:31.240 --> 0:01:33.080
<v Speaker 2>Go on a scale of one to ten, give it

0:01:33.120 --> 0:01:33.559
<v Speaker 2>a grade.

0:01:35.240 --> 0:01:37.120
<v Speaker 3>I'd have to give it a f. I didn't get done.

0:01:37.959 --> 0:01:40.840
<v Speaker 3>All go back in there this weekend.

0:01:41.720 --> 0:01:44.920
<v Speaker 2>Sorry about that. That's kind of a bummer of a

0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:48.040
<v Speaker 2>way to start the show. My apologies. I didn't mean

0:01:48.080 --> 0:01:53.880
<v Speaker 2>to do there. You could have just been like I had,

0:01:53.920 --> 0:01:55.680
<v Speaker 2>give it a six. I'll do better next time. But

0:01:55.760 --> 0:01:59.600
<v Speaker 2>I appreciate that your first instinct is honesty. All right,

0:01:59.680 --> 0:02:02.120
<v Speaker 2>Let's get to the football from the weekend.

0:02:02.160 --> 0:02:05.280
<v Speaker 3>Go ahead, all right, Yeah, So the Chiefs won a

0:02:05.320 --> 0:02:08.840
<v Speaker 3>little bit more convincingly against the Browns this weekend. But

0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:11.520
<v Speaker 3>Patrick Mahomes went down with another high ankle spring. How

0:02:11.520 --> 0:02:13.840
<v Speaker 3>are you feeling about that? By the way, you're nervous.

0:02:13.880 --> 0:02:15.000
<v Speaker 3>I know we've been here before.

0:02:16.280 --> 0:02:18.480
<v Speaker 2>I'll get into that in a moment. It is part

0:02:18.520 --> 0:02:19.960
<v Speaker 2>of the answer, So go ahead.

0:02:20.520 --> 0:02:23.200
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, so Josh Allen and the Bills they beat

0:02:23.200 --> 0:02:25.160
<v Speaker 3>the lines and have put up ninety over the last

0:02:25.200 --> 0:02:28.120
<v Speaker 3>couple of games. So it seems like that conversation of

0:02:28.160 --> 0:02:31.760
<v Speaker 3>who the best quarterback is is back back in action,

0:02:32.120 --> 0:02:33.760
<v Speaker 3>and would you say that that's fair.

0:02:35.320 --> 0:02:39.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, So this enraged me yesterday on television, and so

0:02:39.919 --> 0:02:46.640
<v Speaker 2>first a little news I guess on Patrick. Anyone saying

0:02:48.240 --> 0:02:52.200
<v Speaker 2>Kansas City should consider shutting him down for the season

0:02:52.919 --> 0:02:57.400
<v Speaker 2>until the playoffs, I can tell you it is a

0:02:57.680 --> 0:03:01.880
<v Speaker 2>zero percent chance of that happening. Zero percent. There is

0:03:02.040 --> 0:03:06.320
<v Speaker 2>no chance he is shut down for the season. And

0:03:06.480 --> 0:03:12.079
<v Speaker 2>folks operating as if it is a guarantee that he

0:03:12.200 --> 0:03:18.520
<v Speaker 2>does not play this week are incorrect. Now I'm not

0:03:18.639 --> 0:03:22.919
<v Speaker 2>sitting here telling you, oh Man hammer the Chiefs plus

0:03:22.960 --> 0:03:26.280
<v Speaker 2>two and a half because he's definitely playing and that

0:03:26.360 --> 0:03:29.920
<v Speaker 2>line will flip back to Chiefs by four, which it

0:03:30.080 --> 0:03:33.840
<v Speaker 2>was before the injury news. I'm not saying that. What

0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:38.080
<v Speaker 2>I am saying is it has not yet been determined

0:03:38.520 --> 0:03:42.640
<v Speaker 2>if he is or isn't playing this week. I personally

0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:47.040
<v Speaker 2>would not play him this week and then plan to

0:03:47.120 --> 0:03:51.480
<v Speaker 2>play him Wednesday against the Steelers. That way he doesn't

0:03:51.480 --> 0:03:56.360
<v Speaker 2>have that super compressed rest. But that's the news on it.

0:03:56.880 --> 0:04:02.640
<v Speaker 2>Now to this best Quarterback of live conversation, which is

0:04:02.880 --> 0:04:11.240
<v Speaker 2>utterly and thoroughly and legitimately not only maddening and I

0:04:11.320 --> 0:04:18.080
<v Speaker 2>don't want to sound to hyperbolic here, but an indictment

0:04:18.320 --> 0:04:25.520
<v Speaker 2>on our state of conversational affairs and an indictment on

0:04:25.680 --> 0:04:33.640
<v Speaker 2>folks ability to actually follow their own edicts. Okay, so

0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:39.240
<v Speaker 2>let me give you guys a quick recap of the

0:04:39.279 --> 0:04:44.480
<v Speaker 2>best quarterback a live discussion over the last few years.

0:04:45.080 --> 0:04:53.560
<v Speaker 2>Going into twenty twenty two, it was an actual legitimate

0:04:54.040 --> 0:04:58.440
<v Speaker 2>debate to have Mahomes had won an MVP in twenty

0:04:58.480 --> 0:05:01.880
<v Speaker 2>eighteen and and then won the Super Bowl and Super

0:05:01.920 --> 0:05:07.680
<v Speaker 2>Bowl MVP in twenty nineteen, then had really a historically

0:05:07.760 --> 0:05:12.479
<v Speaker 2>great twenty twenty season. But Tom Brady, who had won

0:05:12.520 --> 0:05:15.719
<v Speaker 2>the Super Bowl in twenty eighteen in his first year

0:05:15.760 --> 0:05:19.480
<v Speaker 2>with Tampa, they rally at the end of the year.

0:05:20.000 --> 0:05:24.080
<v Speaker 2>He's spectacular, the defense is great, beats Mahomes in the

0:05:24.120 --> 0:05:29.719
<v Speaker 2>Super Bowl. Meanwhile, as that's happening, Aaron Rodgers bounces back

0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:36.560
<v Speaker 2>wins League MVP. Twenty twenty one comes around, Brady almost

0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:44.200
<v Speaker 2>wins League MVP at forty something years old. Aaron Rodgers

0:05:44.279 --> 0:05:50.880
<v Speaker 2>wins another MVP, and Mahomes has an awful second half

0:05:50.920 --> 0:05:54.120
<v Speaker 2>against the Bengals in the playoffs and they don't make

0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:58.040
<v Speaker 2>the super Bowl, going for their third straight appearance in

0:05:58.080 --> 0:06:02.640
<v Speaker 2>the Super Bowl, and then the chief trade Tyreek Hill,

0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:06.840
<v Speaker 2>and it's like, oh, my goodness, this is a real discussion.

0:06:07.960 --> 0:06:14.719
<v Speaker 2>Is it Brady still unbelievably? Is it Patrick? Is it

0:06:14.880 --> 0:06:19.760
<v Speaker 2>Aaron Rodgers? Those are the candidates. That was also the

0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:23.400
<v Speaker 2>year of the thirteen second playoff game, and that was

0:06:23.440 --> 0:06:28.200
<v Speaker 2>the year some of the Josh Allen stuff really started

0:06:28.240 --> 0:06:34.599
<v Speaker 2>to take off in a historically unprecedented manner. Where again

0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:38.320
<v Speaker 2>we've talked about it before, Josh got more credit for

0:06:38.560 --> 0:06:43.120
<v Speaker 2>almost beating the Chiefs than Joe Burrow got for actually

0:06:43.160 --> 0:06:47.400
<v Speaker 2>beating the Chiefs, and they both got more credit than

0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:50.880
<v Speaker 2>Matt Stafford got for actually beating the team that beat

0:06:50.920 --> 0:06:52.840
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs, which is the team that beat the Bills

0:06:52.880 --> 0:06:55.360
<v Speaker 2>and winning the Super Bowl. So there we're at in

0:06:55.480 --> 0:07:00.720
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty two. Then in twenty twenty two, without Hill,

0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:06.440
<v Speaker 2>Patrick Mahomes has a masterclass. The Chiefs of the number

0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:09.200
<v Speaker 2>one seed. They're the highest scoring team in the league.

0:07:09.320 --> 0:07:11.400
<v Speaker 2>They put up the most yards of anyone in the league.

0:07:11.560 --> 0:07:15.760
<v Speaker 2>Mahomes has more yards in the season than any quarterback

0:07:15.920 --> 0:07:21.440
<v Speaker 2>in NFL history. In the playoffs, he suffers a brutal injury,

0:07:21.840 --> 0:07:25.440
<v Speaker 2>misses no time, beats Joe Burrow with a drive with

0:07:25.600 --> 0:07:29.320
<v Speaker 2>thirty seconds left in the game, then puts up thirty

0:07:29.360 --> 0:07:32.480
<v Speaker 2>eight points in a Super Bowl to win the game,

0:07:32.800 --> 0:07:36.320
<v Speaker 2>with the critical play being a thirty yard run on

0:07:36.400 --> 0:07:41.360
<v Speaker 2>a busted up ankle. And everyone says okay, oh yeah,

0:07:41.400 --> 0:07:46.080
<v Speaker 2>And Tom Brady retires and Aaron Rodgers misses the playoffs

0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:51.119
<v Speaker 2>and Josh Allen loses a home playoff game getting blown

0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:55.840
<v Speaker 2>out to Joe Burrow. All right, That's how twenty twenty

0:07:55.840 --> 0:08:00.800
<v Speaker 2>two went, and the best quarterback live discussion was over

0:08:01.560 --> 0:08:04.520
<v Speaker 2>Brady's out of the league. Rogers is on the down

0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:11.560
<v Speaker 2>slope and leaving Green Bay. Josh Allen had his just

0:08:11.640 --> 0:08:17.480
<v Speaker 2>a horrific playoff loss and a middling regular season. Burrow

0:08:17.880 --> 0:08:22.840
<v Speaker 2>couldn't get it done. And Patrick has one of the

0:08:22.880 --> 0:08:25.400
<v Speaker 2>greatest years anyone's had in the history of the sport. Again,

0:08:25.440 --> 0:08:28.200
<v Speaker 2>the most yards anyone's ever had, most points in the league,

0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:31.640
<v Speaker 2>most yards in the league by a team, thirty eight

0:08:31.640 --> 0:08:33.640
<v Speaker 2>points in the Super Bowl, and did it on an injury.

0:08:34.200 --> 0:08:40.160
<v Speaker 2>That's how twenty twenty two ended, and everyone unanimously said

0:08:40.200 --> 0:08:43.800
<v Speaker 2>all the media, this might be the best quarterback I've

0:08:43.800 --> 0:08:48.520
<v Speaker 2>ever seen, certainly the best quarterback in the league. Then

0:08:48.559 --> 0:08:55.040
<v Speaker 2>we get to last year, and last year the Chiefs

0:08:55.080 --> 0:09:00.720
<v Speaker 2>look shaky start to finish. Mahomes has his worst statistic season.

0:09:01.400 --> 0:09:06.640
<v Speaker 2>Now it's not as bad as the season, and Aaron

0:09:06.720 --> 0:09:10.240
<v Speaker 2>Rodgers is out of it because popped his achilles. Tom

0:09:10.280 --> 0:09:16.320
<v Speaker 2>Brady is retired. Lamar at this point two straight years,

0:09:16.320 --> 0:09:18.840
<v Speaker 2>by the way, let's bring him into it, has not

0:09:19.000 --> 0:09:23.440
<v Speaker 2>finished the season healthy two straight years, has not played

0:09:23.440 --> 0:09:25.960
<v Speaker 2>in a playoff game when we're into twenty twenty three,

0:09:26.280 --> 0:09:31.959
<v Speaker 2>so he's not in the discussion at that time. It's Josh, Joe,

0:09:32.400 --> 0:09:35.280
<v Speaker 2>and Patrick, but it's really just Patrick. But then the

0:09:35.320 --> 0:09:39.960
<v Speaker 2>season starts and Patrick is struggling, but Joe's not there

0:09:40.000 --> 0:09:41.960
<v Speaker 2>to take advantage of it because he's injured at the

0:09:41.960 --> 0:09:45.040
<v Speaker 2>start of the year and playing poorly. Finally plays well,

0:09:45.200 --> 0:09:48.960
<v Speaker 2>then he's injured again. Josh, the story last year was

0:09:48.960 --> 0:09:52.080
<v Speaker 2>holy shit, that's a lot of turnovers. So much so

0:09:52.880 --> 0:09:56.960
<v Speaker 2>they're five or six and six and fire the offensive coordinator,

0:09:58.200 --> 0:10:00.760
<v Speaker 2>and the big shift they make is they become a

0:10:00.880 --> 0:10:05.760
<v Speaker 2>more run centric team. But the Chiefs keep looking shaky

0:10:06.120 --> 0:10:11.920
<v Speaker 2>and keep looking bad, and everyone says, oh, my goodness,

0:10:12.200 --> 0:10:15.760
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna be on the road, which was correct. They're vulnerable,

0:10:16.200 --> 0:10:19.960
<v Speaker 2>They're not the same. It's the worst receiving cores in

0:10:20.000 --> 0:10:28.480
<v Speaker 2>the league. They're cooked. And then Patrick plays four games

0:10:28.520 --> 0:10:33.920
<v Speaker 2>of perfect football in the playoffs, going up against the

0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:37.600
<v Speaker 2>league's highest score or the most prolific offense in Miami

0:10:38.160 --> 0:10:42.520
<v Speaker 2>and blowing them out, going into Josh's building and wildly

0:10:42.600 --> 0:10:47.600
<v Speaker 2>outplaying him, going into Lamar's building and wildly outplaying him,

0:10:48.120 --> 0:10:50.760
<v Speaker 2>and then playing in the Super Bowl against Purty who

0:10:50.840 --> 0:10:58.000
<v Speaker 2>almost won MVP and out playing him, and everyone says, okay, seriously,

0:10:58.120 --> 0:11:02.520
<v Speaker 2>this time, we won't have this debate again. My bad,

0:11:02.880 --> 0:11:09.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry. Of the active quarterbacks starting quarterbacks now, the

0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:13.320
<v Speaker 2>only other one with MVPs again, if we take Rogers

0:11:13.360 --> 0:11:16.080
<v Speaker 2>out of you know, was forty and missed the year,

0:11:16.760 --> 0:11:20.839
<v Speaker 2>is Lamar, who has as many MVPs as playoff victories.

0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:24.840
<v Speaker 2>None of them have Super Bowl wins. Of the guys

0:11:24.880 --> 0:11:30.000
<v Speaker 2>in the discussion, and okay, yeah, we won't make that

0:11:30.080 --> 0:11:38.480
<v Speaker 2>mistake again. Now we get to this season where there

0:11:38.559 --> 0:11:42.680
<v Speaker 2>is not another quarterback in the league that coming off

0:11:42.720 --> 0:11:47.920
<v Speaker 2>back to back Super Bowls with this schedule and this

0:11:48.160 --> 0:11:51.240
<v Speaker 2>expectation and it being everyone super Bowl would have this

0:11:51.280 --> 0:11:54.400
<v Speaker 2>team thirteen and one. They're thirteen and one. They have

0:11:54.480 --> 0:11:57.680
<v Speaker 2>the best record in the league after a rocky opening

0:11:57.760 --> 0:12:00.720
<v Speaker 2>six games of the season that they were undefeated despite

0:12:00.760 --> 0:12:07.240
<v Speaker 2>Patrick's play, He's played great, and folks are like, yeah,

0:12:07.280 --> 0:12:10.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, I just think Josh is better and we've

0:12:10.800 --> 0:12:15.840
<v Speaker 2>never seen it happen in sports and be like, oh,

0:12:15.840 --> 0:12:20.920
<v Speaker 2>it's like Brady Manning. Brady Manning. When that was a

0:12:21.000 --> 0:12:27.439
<v Speaker 2>debate in the mid twenty tens, Peyton's numbers for his

0:12:27.600 --> 0:12:33.920
<v Speaker 2>career and MVPs were so overwhelming compared to Tom's. Peyton

0:12:33.960 --> 0:12:41.360
<v Speaker 2>had far better stats multiple MVPs. Tom had neither. Josh

0:12:41.440 --> 0:12:46.160
<v Speaker 2>Allen is having an awesome year. This year Josh Allen

0:12:46.240 --> 0:12:50.080
<v Speaker 2>Is having is not would not be one of the

0:12:50.200 --> 0:12:53.040
<v Speaker 2>three best seasons Patrick Mahomes has had in his career.

0:12:54.120 --> 0:12:58.080
<v Speaker 2>Twenty eighteen, Patrick was better than this. Twenty twenty, the

0:12:58.200 --> 0:13:02.319
<v Speaker 2>forgotten season when Patrick had had thirty eight touchdown six picks,

0:13:02.720 --> 0:13:05.280
<v Speaker 2>five thousand yard or forty seven hundred yards. Part of

0:13:05.280 --> 0:13:07.160
<v Speaker 2>me would have been five thousand, but he skipped the

0:13:07.160 --> 0:13:10.120
<v Speaker 2>final game and they went fourteen to one and twenty

0:13:10.160 --> 0:13:12.760
<v Speaker 2>twenty two, Patrick was better than this. Again, Josh having

0:13:12.800 --> 0:13:15.640
<v Speaker 2>a great year, And I gotta listen to people saying

0:13:16.640 --> 0:13:18.920
<v Speaker 2>Josh Allen at his best as the best quarterback I've

0:13:18.920 --> 0:13:25.880
<v Speaker 2>ever seen, which is just utter nonsense. It's just total foolishness.

0:13:26.320 --> 0:13:29.200
<v Speaker 2>I have to listen to people saying, oh no, like

0:13:30.559 --> 0:13:35.120
<v Speaker 2>it is now a real debate. Is Josh Allen having

0:13:35.160 --> 0:13:39.320
<v Speaker 2>a better individual season than Patrick Mahomes? Of course this year,

0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:42.160
<v Speaker 2>there's no doubt about that. There's no argument there. So

0:13:42.360 --> 0:13:46.240
<v Speaker 2>was Lamar. By the way, there's no argument there. But

0:13:46.360 --> 0:13:51.120
<v Speaker 2>in order to be in the best quarterback alive discussion,

0:13:51.280 --> 0:13:53.800
<v Speaker 2>first of all, it probably helps to not be playing

0:13:54.400 --> 0:13:56.760
<v Speaker 2>at the exact same time as the best quarterback ever.

0:13:57.000 --> 0:14:01.600
<v Speaker 2>But take that part out of it. Historically speaking, you

0:14:01.800 --> 0:14:06.960
<v Speaker 2>always had to have some accomplishment. And so for the

0:14:07.000 --> 0:14:10.360
<v Speaker 2>guys in it, I will ask you, Demansey, I'm gonna

0:14:10.360 --> 0:14:12.000
<v Speaker 2>put you on the spot. There's a little unfair, so

0:14:12.040 --> 0:14:16.680
<v Speaker 2>it can be a little rhetorical. What's the best win

0:14:16.760 --> 0:14:21.440
<v Speaker 2>of Josh Allen's career? Does somebody tell me? I'd love

0:14:21.520 --> 0:14:25.080
<v Speaker 2>to know it. Was it the playoff game against Skyler Thompson?

0:14:26.600 --> 0:14:29.120
<v Speaker 2>Was it the playoff win against Lamar Jackson when it

0:14:29.200 --> 0:14:31.680
<v Speaker 2>was ten to three and then Lamar threw a pick six,

0:14:31.960 --> 0:14:35.320
<v Speaker 2>they won seventeen to three. What's the best win of

0:14:35.320 --> 0:14:37.040
<v Speaker 2>his career? I want to know.

0:14:37.520 --> 0:14:40.920
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I can't think of it. People are predicating

0:14:40.920 --> 0:14:43.840
<v Speaker 3>everything based off of what they've who can beat the

0:14:43.960 --> 0:14:46.720
<v Speaker 3>Chiefs and Mahomes. I do think those regular season wins

0:14:47.400 --> 0:14:49.600
<v Speaker 3>is where it carries weight in people's heads, and then

0:14:49.640 --> 0:14:52.960
<v Speaker 3>you get to the postseason and you see the regular season. Okay,

0:14:52.960 --> 0:14:55.320
<v Speaker 3>the regular season win didn't matter, but I do think

0:14:55.320 --> 0:14:57.480
<v Speaker 3>that a lot of people saw that Josh Allen beat

0:14:57.520 --> 0:15:00.320
<v Speaker 3>Mahomes head up. This year, he's having this year, I

0:15:00.400 --> 0:15:02.280
<v Speaker 3>think coming into this season. Here's the thing.

0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:05.320
<v Speaker 2>He beat head up. He beat him head up in

0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:09.800
<v Speaker 2>the regular season last three times they played. That's and listen. Okay,

0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:13.720
<v Speaker 2>So right now, the leading contender for the best win

0:15:13.920 --> 0:15:18.200
<v Speaker 2>of Josh Allen's career is an early season, regular season

0:15:18.200 --> 0:15:21.160
<v Speaker 2>game against the Chiefs. Got it? Now, let's bring because

0:15:21.160 --> 0:15:24.000
<v Speaker 2>folks want to we do the same thing with Lamar.

0:15:24.560 --> 0:15:29.560
<v Speaker 2>What's Lamar's biggest moment? Playoff win against Houston is the answer.

0:15:29.920 --> 0:15:32.960
<v Speaker 2>I know that one. That's his that's his biggest moment

0:15:33.800 --> 0:15:36.280
<v Speaker 2>and then we'll see if you build on it. You

0:15:36.440 --> 0:15:42.840
<v Speaker 2>don't get to swear to an audience as everyone in

0:15:42.920 --> 0:15:48.160
<v Speaker 2>the media did in February last year. I'll never make

0:15:48.200 --> 0:15:52.080
<v Speaker 2>this mistake again. I'll never be dumb enough to say

0:15:52.560 --> 0:15:56.320
<v Speaker 2>someone's better than this guy, or this guy doesn't have it,

0:15:57.040 --> 0:16:02.080
<v Speaker 2>or argue about it. And everybody did. It was across

0:16:02.200 --> 0:16:06.360
<v Speaker 2>the board. All the folks who said no, this is

0:16:06.400 --> 0:16:10.600
<v Speaker 2>the year, last year, they don't have it then paid

0:16:10.600 --> 0:16:12.840
<v Speaker 2>their pound of flesh by saying my bad, won't do

0:16:12.880 --> 0:16:16.680
<v Speaker 2>it again. And the fact that we are seeing people

0:16:16.800 --> 0:16:22.280
<v Speaker 2>do it again when the Chiefs are the only one

0:16:22.400 --> 0:16:28.720
<v Speaker 2>loss team in the league is unfucking believable. Truly, when

0:16:29.000 --> 0:16:32.520
<v Speaker 2>every time this year Patrick's had the ball in his

0:16:32.640 --> 0:16:35.600
<v Speaker 2>hands with a chance to go win the game, he's

0:16:35.680 --> 0:16:39.840
<v Speaker 2>done it, and people are still like, uh, yeah, it's

0:16:39.920 --> 0:16:46.600
<v Speaker 2>just I've changed my mind. It's embarrassing. It undercuts your

0:16:46.640 --> 0:16:50.120
<v Speaker 2>ability to be taken seriously as an analyst as opposed

0:16:50.160 --> 0:16:54.640
<v Speaker 2>to just seeing where the wind's blowing. And there is

0:16:54.720 --> 0:17:02.000
<v Speaker 2>a very weird narrative piece of this, which is Jared

0:17:02.120 --> 0:17:09.000
<v Speaker 2>Goff has had a spectacular year. One horrific game where

0:17:09.000 --> 0:17:13.159
<v Speaker 2>he threw five picks, they somehow won anyway, Jared Goff

0:17:13.280 --> 0:17:16.400
<v Speaker 2>just had a five hundred yard, five touchdown game, his

0:17:16.480 --> 0:17:21.480
<v Speaker 2>team allowed forty and they lost, and everyone's like, Okay,

0:17:21.600 --> 0:17:26.600
<v Speaker 2>MVP race over, it's Josh Allen's which Josh would have

0:17:26.640 --> 0:17:29.800
<v Speaker 2>my vote right now? For the record. Nine days ago,

0:17:31.280 --> 0:17:35.160
<v Speaker 2>Josh had did exactly what Jared just did and everyone

0:17:35.240 --> 0:17:39.720
<v Speaker 2>said it helped him. Nine days ago, Josh scored forty

0:17:39.760 --> 0:17:43.360
<v Speaker 2>in a loss, had unbelievable stats. Are like, that's why

0:17:43.400 --> 0:17:48.320
<v Speaker 2>he's MVP. This week, Jared Goff is five hundred yards

0:17:48.320 --> 0:17:50.359
<v Speaker 2>and five touchdowns and a loss. We were like, MVP

0:17:50.520 --> 0:17:55.440
<v Speaker 2>race over, it's Josh's it's uh and listen, I think

0:17:55.480 --> 0:18:00.600
<v Speaker 2>the guy's playing great. I truly do, and I think

0:18:00.640 --> 0:18:04.080
<v Speaker 2>he is right now heaving Josh Allen the deserving MVP.

0:18:04.880 --> 0:18:11.479
<v Speaker 2>But I cannot believe we are back to a place

0:18:13.000 --> 0:18:18.800
<v Speaker 2>when the defense the two time defending Super Bowl MVP

0:18:20.640 --> 0:18:26.320
<v Speaker 2>has his team at thirteen and one, going for a

0:18:26.440 --> 0:18:32.880
<v Speaker 2>three peat, with a season where they have lost either

0:18:32.960 --> 0:18:35.480
<v Speaker 2>for the year or for giant portions of the year.

0:18:36.280 --> 0:18:41.040
<v Speaker 2>Number one running back number one, two, four and five,

0:18:41.119 --> 0:18:46.560
<v Speaker 2>wide receivers number three, four to five tight end their

0:18:46.640 --> 0:18:51.520
<v Speaker 2>left tackle, their number two, number three corner, their number

0:18:51.520 --> 0:18:55.040
<v Speaker 2>one defensive end, their number one, their number two kicker,

0:18:56.440 --> 0:18:59.119
<v Speaker 2>dealt with all that Lion's dealing with injuries right now,

0:18:59.200 --> 0:19:02.320
<v Speaker 2>and be like I'm in it's a shame. Seasons probably

0:19:02.400 --> 0:19:10.040
<v Speaker 2>over for them, and we are we are having this

0:19:10.280 --> 0:19:18.440
<v Speaker 2>discussion when every other quarterback demonse that is in the

0:19:18.520 --> 0:19:26.400
<v Speaker 2>discussion their best season of their career cumulatively from individual

0:19:26.560 --> 0:19:29.359
<v Speaker 2>and team success. Put them together and make it a

0:19:29.480 --> 0:19:32.080
<v Speaker 2>chart of how you want to weigh it. Every other

0:19:32.240 --> 0:19:39.119
<v Speaker 2>quarterback we're discussing Alan Lamar Burrow, those guys, the best

0:19:39.240 --> 0:19:43.320
<v Speaker 2>season of their individual careers would be the worst season

0:19:43.359 --> 0:19:48.080
<v Speaker 2>of Patrick's. I'm gonna say it again, every other quarterback

0:19:48.160 --> 0:19:50.840
<v Speaker 2>in this What is the best season of Josh Allen's career?

0:19:51.240 --> 0:19:54.760
<v Speaker 2>This right now we might be in the midst of it. Statistically,

0:19:54.880 --> 0:19:58.440
<v Speaker 2>we are in the midst of it, but we don't

0:19:58.440 --> 0:20:01.639
<v Speaker 2>have the full picture of it yet. What would it

0:20:01.920 --> 0:20:07.920
<v Speaker 2>would be? What twenty twenty Okay, getting blown out in

0:20:07.960 --> 0:20:13.400
<v Speaker 2>the AFC Championship Game and coming third in MVP voting. Yeah,

0:20:13.440 --> 0:20:16.159
<v Speaker 2>that would be horrifying. That'd be the worst season of

0:20:16.240 --> 0:20:21.080
<v Speaker 2>Patrick's career, the worst. What's the best season of Lamar's career.

0:20:21.840 --> 0:20:24.280
<v Speaker 2>It's actually his first year as a starter or this year,

0:20:24.320 --> 0:20:25.880
<v Speaker 2>but again, we gotta wait and see how this year

0:20:25.920 --> 0:20:28.960
<v Speaker 2>plays all out was first year as a starter, going

0:20:29.080 --> 0:20:33.760
<v Speaker 2>fourteen and two, winning the MVP and losing your first

0:20:33.800 --> 0:20:37.480
<v Speaker 2>playoff game and playing terribly in it, well that would

0:20:37.480 --> 0:20:41.960
<v Speaker 2>be heart like horrifying. And so I just think that

0:20:44.800 --> 0:20:52.680
<v Speaker 2>it is a sad state of sports media affairs when

0:20:52.840 --> 0:20:56.760
<v Speaker 2>folks can be so loud wrong all of last year,

0:20:59.320 --> 0:21:03.360
<v Speaker 2>try to a hone for it in February and then

0:21:04.440 --> 0:21:07.720
<v Speaker 2>just be like, ah, the audience isn't paying that close

0:21:07.760 --> 0:21:12.600
<v Speaker 2>of attention. I'll just do it again. So I know,

0:21:12.680 --> 0:21:14.159
<v Speaker 2>I said I wanted to go fast in staid. I

0:21:14.240 --> 0:21:18.040
<v Speaker 2>spend twenty minutes on the a's, but I mean on

0:21:19.160 --> 0:21:21.359
<v Speaker 2>the first topic. But you can ask me the follow

0:21:21.440 --> 0:21:23.400
<v Speaker 2>up here and we can talk a little bit more

0:21:23.440 --> 0:21:24.879
<v Speaker 2>about the one seed stuff.

0:21:25.960 --> 0:21:28.199
<v Speaker 3>So Buffalo gets New England two times to end up

0:21:28.240 --> 0:21:30.920
<v Speaker 3>the year. Do you think that they could potentially lock

0:21:31.000 --> 0:21:32.840
<v Speaker 3>up the one seed with those easy games? And the

0:21:32.920 --> 0:21:34.200
<v Speaker 3>Chiefs have in their sleep.

0:21:34.880 --> 0:21:39.480
<v Speaker 2>So listen, here's the deal. Let's just assume Buffalo goes

0:21:39.560 --> 0:21:43.720
<v Speaker 2>three and zero. If Buffalo loses once then their base

0:21:43.840 --> 0:21:47.760
<v Speaker 2>probably cooked. If Buffalo loses once, then they would need

0:21:47.840 --> 0:21:49.720
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs to go zero and three the rest of

0:21:49.720 --> 0:21:52.800
<v Speaker 2>the way, but to be the one. But let's assume

0:21:52.960 --> 0:21:56.320
<v Speaker 2>Buffalo go. If they go New England Jets New England,

0:21:56.800 --> 0:22:01.840
<v Speaker 2>Let's just assume Buffalo runs the table. Right, they would

0:22:01.960 --> 0:22:07.400
<v Speaker 2>need Kansas City to lose twice. Kansas City's not gonna

0:22:07.440 --> 0:22:16.000
<v Speaker 2>lose twice. And I believe that if Patrick doesn't play

0:22:16.320 --> 0:22:21.960
<v Speaker 2>on Saturday, I think that that is a great Chris

0:22:22.200 --> 0:22:27.359
<v Speaker 2>Jones activate moment against that Texans offensive line. And this

0:22:27.480 --> 0:22:29.560
<v Speaker 2>is the other thing I'm gonna and they could theoretically,

0:22:29.640 --> 0:22:33.720
<v Speaker 2>I mean, Vegas thinks Mahomes isn't gonna play, and yes

0:22:33.840 --> 0:22:36.720
<v Speaker 2>the Texans are the favorites, but it's a two point line.

0:22:37.240 --> 0:22:39.879
<v Speaker 2>It's not quite a coin flip, but it's very very close.

0:22:40.320 --> 0:22:43.480
<v Speaker 2>I did not love at all how Houston played this week.

0:22:44.200 --> 0:22:48.720
<v Speaker 2>I thought Houston's game this week was not encouraging, and

0:22:48.840 --> 0:22:53.160
<v Speaker 2>I thought Stroud was against Miami. I thought Stroud once again,

0:22:53.400 --> 0:22:55.600
<v Speaker 2>like I mean, through the ball twenty six times for

0:22:55.640 --> 0:22:57.239
<v Speaker 2>one hundred and thirty yards. It was kind of an

0:22:57.320 --> 0:23:01.880
<v Speaker 2>awkward game for him. So I think Houston can get

0:23:02.000 --> 0:23:08.000
<v Speaker 2>got and I just don't believe Kansas City is losing twice.

0:23:08.680 --> 0:23:13.320
<v Speaker 2>There also is a weird potential. I'm not saying this

0:23:13.480 --> 0:23:18.840
<v Speaker 2>is gonna happen, but there is a odd possibility that Denver.

0:23:20.200 --> 0:23:27.080
<v Speaker 2>If Denver beat Cincinnati in a week, they could go

0:23:27.280 --> 0:23:32.960
<v Speaker 2>into Week eighteen locked into their spot, and would Denver

0:23:33.160 --> 0:23:35.240
<v Speaker 2>be like, we're just gonna give ourselves a bye week

0:23:35.720 --> 0:23:39.439
<v Speaker 2>and rest people. In that phot everybody thought the Chiefs

0:23:39.560 --> 0:23:42.960
<v Speaker 2>might be resting people and that would help Denver in

0:23:43.040 --> 0:23:45.480
<v Speaker 2>that Week eighteen game. I wonder if that could go

0:23:45.600 --> 0:23:49.119
<v Speaker 2>the other way. But this is why all those close

0:23:49.200 --> 0:23:53.040
<v Speaker 2>wins and everything matters, because, yeah, if the Chiefs only

0:23:53.280 --> 0:23:56.680
<v Speaker 2>had a one game cushion, which would really be a

0:23:56.760 --> 0:23:58.720
<v Speaker 2>half game cushion because they lost head to head to

0:23:58.760 --> 0:24:03.679
<v Speaker 2>Buffalo and Mahomes just suffered this ankle injury, then you're nervous.

0:24:04.400 --> 0:24:07.560
<v Speaker 2>Then it's like, man, if you think Buffalo's going three

0:24:07.640 --> 0:24:10.040
<v Speaker 2>and oh, you also have to go three and oh

0:24:10.600 --> 0:24:12.920
<v Speaker 2>or you lose the bye week. And I don't care

0:24:13.000 --> 0:24:15.000
<v Speaker 2>nearly as much about home field advantage as I do

0:24:15.119 --> 0:24:20.200
<v Speaker 2>the bye week. But they're thirteen to one and Buffalo's

0:24:20.240 --> 0:24:24.679
<v Speaker 2>ten and three and oh, No, I'm sorry. That couldn't

0:24:24.680 --> 0:24:27.119
<v Speaker 2>be right. Buffalo's eleven and three. Chiefs are thirteen and

0:24:27.160 --> 0:24:29.280
<v Speaker 2>one and Buffalo's eleven and three, so they have a

0:24:29.359 --> 0:24:31.440
<v Speaker 2>game to play with. So no, I'm not as concerned.

0:24:31.480 --> 0:24:33.280
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's move on to the next topic.

0:24:34.080 --> 0:24:36.080
<v Speaker 3>So the injury. The injuries have been stacking up for

0:24:36.119 --> 0:24:39.720
<v Speaker 3>the Lions heavily on that defensive side. But now David

0:24:39.800 --> 0:24:42.760
<v Speaker 3>mccoverery's down and he's out for the rest of the season.

0:24:42.840 --> 0:24:46.480
<v Speaker 3>Most likely, Dan Campbell went for that gutsy on sidekick

0:24:46.560 --> 0:24:49.000
<v Speaker 3>and a lot of people were not agreeing with that.

0:24:49.680 --> 0:24:53.120
<v Speaker 3>Do you think that they officially peaked too early? They're

0:24:53.160 --> 0:24:54.800
<v Speaker 3>obviously still a dangerous team.

0:24:55.960 --> 0:24:59.800
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how dangerous they are with these defensive injuries,

0:25:00.560 --> 0:25:05.280
<v Speaker 2>and I think they listen, They've allowed seventy nine points

0:25:05.320 --> 0:25:08.240
<v Speaker 2>the last two weeks. Buffalo's actually allowed eighty six the

0:25:08.359 --> 0:25:11.240
<v Speaker 2>last two weeks. It's an underrated story for a team

0:25:11.320 --> 0:25:13.840
<v Speaker 2>that everyone's just handing the Lombardi two. But that's fine.

0:25:16.920 --> 0:25:20.320
<v Speaker 2>Both Buffalo and Detroit each of the last two weeks

0:25:20.359 --> 0:25:23.639
<v Speaker 2>have both allowed more points than the Chiefs have allowed

0:25:23.760 --> 0:25:26.320
<v Speaker 2>in any game one game for get back to back

0:25:26.440 --> 0:25:29.879
<v Speaker 2>in the last two years. But again they've earned a

0:25:29.920 --> 0:25:31.760
<v Speaker 2>lot more benefit of the doubt than the two time

0:25:31.840 --> 0:25:36.480
<v Speaker 2>defending champs for the best record in football. But listen,

0:25:37.520 --> 0:25:39.440
<v Speaker 2>I want to talk to Troit's injuries that I want

0:25:39.440 --> 0:25:46.600
<v Speaker 2>to talk Dan Campbell. Detroit's injuries are so clustered defensively

0:25:47.320 --> 0:25:50.720
<v Speaker 2>and so devastating that I think they're in real trouble.

0:25:50.880 --> 0:25:55.359
<v Speaker 2>And here's the problem, demanse. It is, it looked like

0:25:55.480 --> 0:26:00.480
<v Speaker 2>the Lions sailing to the one seat right now, all

0:26:00.560 --> 0:26:06.320
<v Speaker 2>of a sudden, it is so on the board that

0:26:06.480 --> 0:26:12.399
<v Speaker 2>they fall to either the two or Minnesota catches them,

0:26:12.480 --> 0:26:16.800
<v Speaker 2>which means they fall to the five. Minnesota, Philly and

0:26:16.880 --> 0:26:22.320
<v Speaker 2>Detroit are all twelve and two. Minnesota gets Detroit week eighteen,

0:26:22.440 --> 0:26:26.440
<v Speaker 2>so Minnesota technically controls its own destiny for the one seed.

0:26:27.119 --> 0:26:30.920
<v Speaker 2>Problem for Detroit is if Minnesota catches them, they fall

0:26:31.040 --> 0:26:33.840
<v Speaker 2>to the five. You fall to the five, what's your

0:26:33.920 --> 0:26:37.399
<v Speaker 2>first playoff game? Either at Tampa who already beat you

0:26:37.560 --> 0:26:41.080
<v Speaker 2>this year or at the Rams who played you overtime

0:26:41.160 --> 0:26:44.440
<v Speaker 2>this year. That's not great. You fall to just the

0:26:44.560 --> 0:26:49.440
<v Speaker 2>two seed. Who do you get? Probably Washington? I think

0:26:49.480 --> 0:26:53.440
<v Speaker 2>you would beat Washington, but maybe Green Bay. Green Bay

0:26:53.480 --> 0:26:56.359
<v Speaker 2>who you've beaten twice, but we just saw play you

0:26:56.520 --> 0:26:59.800
<v Speaker 2>thirty four to thirty one to the final moment. It

0:26:59.920 --> 0:27:07.880
<v Speaker 2>is very on the board. Detroit goes from ten fourteen

0:27:07.960 --> 0:27:10.719
<v Speaker 2>days ago, Oh my god, Detroit's the favorite to win

0:27:10.800 --> 0:27:13.280
<v Speaker 2>the super Bowl for the first time in franchise history,

0:27:14.119 --> 0:27:17.119
<v Speaker 2>to one and done in the playoffs. Football is a

0:27:17.200 --> 0:27:21.080
<v Speaker 2>cruel game, man to cruel and you're by the way.

0:27:21.240 --> 0:27:26.240
<v Speaker 2>Like Cincinnati had a nice run back to back conference

0:27:26.320 --> 0:27:29.560
<v Speaker 2>title games with the super Bowl mixed in last year,

0:27:29.680 --> 0:27:32.640
<v Speaker 2>injuries killed them. This year they're just not good. San

0:27:32.720 --> 0:27:37.760
<v Speaker 2>Francisco had a hell of a run right five years,

0:27:37.840 --> 0:27:41.240
<v Speaker 2>four NFC title games, two Super Bowl appearances. They're cooked

0:27:41.280 --> 0:27:44.560
<v Speaker 2>for the year. Philly is in the midst of an

0:27:44.600 --> 0:27:48.640
<v Speaker 2>excellent run. With that said, win a super Bowl, tear

0:27:48.720 --> 0:27:52.200
<v Speaker 2>it down, build it back up, make another Super Bowl

0:27:52.600 --> 0:27:55.320
<v Speaker 2>melt down at the end of the year, recover this year.

0:27:56.920 --> 0:28:01.720
<v Speaker 2>The Buffalo has not had the fall apart. But Buffalo,

0:28:01.880 --> 0:28:05.479
<v Speaker 2>also of those teams, is the one to never actually

0:28:05.600 --> 0:28:08.800
<v Speaker 2>break through and get to the super Bowl and then

0:28:09.000 --> 0:28:11.760
<v Speaker 2>then of course again started being obnoxious. There's the team

0:28:11.800 --> 0:28:14.440
<v Speaker 2>that's been to four of the last six super Bowls

0:28:14.480 --> 0:28:18.680
<v Speaker 2>and six of the last six final fours. Uh now

0:28:18.760 --> 0:28:25.560
<v Speaker 2>to Dan Campbell, the onside kick was an absurdity and

0:28:27.160 --> 0:28:30.560
<v Speaker 2>did you how did you feel about it? Demanse down

0:28:30.720 --> 0:28:32.400
<v Speaker 2>ten twelve minutes left.

0:28:33.880 --> 0:28:36.439
<v Speaker 3>No, I think there you probably could have kicked it off.

0:28:36.680 --> 0:28:38.920
<v Speaker 3>I talked to it, I talked to the producers about it,

0:28:39.000 --> 0:28:41.520
<v Speaker 3>and it's just I think it's a seven percent chance

0:28:41.560 --> 0:28:43.920
<v Speaker 3>of you were covering an on side kick. So it's

0:28:44.000 --> 0:28:47.360
<v Speaker 3>just basically saying that you don't trust the defense eight

0:28:47.440 --> 0:28:50.360
<v Speaker 3>percent to stop Josh Allen in the Bills. And that

0:28:50.680 --> 0:28:54.479
<v Speaker 3>makes fun of sense. It's like, where where's your hope at?

0:28:54.560 --> 0:28:56.040
<v Speaker 3>What do you think is more likely to come out?

0:28:56.080 --> 0:28:58.680
<v Speaker 3>And he thought that the on side kick was more

0:28:58.800 --> 0:28:59.640
<v Speaker 3>likely to get them to win.

0:29:00.000 --> 0:29:05.280
<v Speaker 2>And it's problematic for two reasons. One is, here were

0:29:05.360 --> 0:29:08.720
<v Speaker 2>the possessions the Bills had leading up to the on

0:29:08.880 --> 0:29:11.400
<v Speaker 2>side kick? The three possessions leading.

0:29:11.240 --> 0:29:11.520
<v Speaker 3>Up to it.

0:29:11.600 --> 0:29:14.920
<v Speaker 2>Okay, we're the question is were the Bills just marching

0:29:15.000 --> 0:29:17.720
<v Speaker 2>up and down the field every possession and the answers

0:29:17.760 --> 0:29:23.600
<v Speaker 2>actually know they weren't. The possessions were Detroit forced the

0:29:23.720 --> 0:29:28.680
<v Speaker 2>one punt all game? They forced the next possession, Buffalo

0:29:28.840 --> 0:29:34.680
<v Speaker 2>scored a touchdown, but that drive started on Detroit's twenty

0:29:34.920 --> 0:29:38.040
<v Speaker 2>six because of a Detroit fumble, so that's not We

0:29:38.120 --> 0:29:39.960
<v Speaker 2>don't know if they would have stopped them on a

0:29:40.040 --> 0:29:42.800
<v Speaker 2>full field. They started in the twenty six and the

0:29:42.920 --> 0:29:47.000
<v Speaker 2>next possession Buffalo kicked a field goal, so it had

0:29:47.040 --> 0:29:52.080
<v Speaker 2>gone punt twenty six yard touchdown drive field goal. So

0:29:52.240 --> 0:29:55.840
<v Speaker 2>you actually had a chance of stopping them. But the

0:29:55.960 --> 0:29:58.840
<v Speaker 2>point you made, Demanse's, to me the more important one.

0:29:59.320 --> 0:30:04.840
<v Speaker 2>Dan cam can no longer sell. I believe, in my defense,

0:30:05.560 --> 0:30:15.680
<v Speaker 2>two weeks in a row he has done wildly irrational things,

0:30:16.320 --> 0:30:21.360
<v Speaker 2>purely because he is telling the world and those players. No,

0:30:21.520 --> 0:30:24.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't trust you at all. Can you stop Jordan

0:30:25.040 --> 0:30:28.880
<v Speaker 2>Love for thirty seconds? So we just kicked this field

0:30:28.920 --> 0:30:31.720
<v Speaker 2>going fourth down? No, I don't think you can.

0:30:32.600 --> 0:30:36.040
<v Speaker 3>Can you get up primary guys? You know, he's got

0:30:36.080 --> 0:30:38.800
<v Speaker 3>a bunch of the injuries, and like maybe like that

0:30:38.920 --> 0:30:39.560
<v Speaker 3>feeds into it.

0:30:40.680 --> 0:30:43.600
<v Speaker 2>Of course that feeds into it. But my point is

0:30:44.320 --> 0:30:48.160
<v Speaker 2>those are his primary guys now. Now, those are the

0:30:48.240 --> 0:30:53.920
<v Speaker 2>guys now he's got to go to war with. And again,

0:30:54.040 --> 0:30:58.000
<v Speaker 2>this is a terrible analogy, just awful, but I'm just

0:30:58.040 --> 0:31:00.600
<v Speaker 2>gonna use it as he doesn't won't even really makes sense.

0:31:01.160 --> 0:31:06.920
<v Speaker 2>But if it's like, hey, uh, here's the deal, guys, Nick,

0:31:07.720 --> 0:31:11.560
<v Speaker 2>you can either we've got a cash bonus for the

0:31:11.680 --> 0:31:22.160
<v Speaker 2>pod coming. Either you answer ten consecutive trivia questions correct

0:31:23.040 --> 0:31:27.440
<v Speaker 2>or demands, gets one right, and I'm like, give give

0:31:27.480 --> 0:31:30.960
<v Speaker 2>me the questions. And then next week they give us

0:31:31.080 --> 0:31:35.320
<v Speaker 2>the same thing, and I'm like it, give me the questions.

0:31:36.280 --> 0:31:39.240
<v Speaker 2>But then you and I are about to enter a

0:31:39.400 --> 0:31:44.760
<v Speaker 2>single elimination uh trivia playoffs, And I'm like, don't worry. Man,

0:31:44.840 --> 0:31:46.400
<v Speaker 2>you and me were a team, you'd be like, man,

0:31:46.480 --> 0:31:50.000
<v Speaker 2>you don't trust me, Like what are you talking about?

0:31:50.640 --> 0:31:51.360
<v Speaker 3>Like you know?

0:31:51.760 --> 0:31:55.600
<v Speaker 2>And so it's okay, thanks, I'm glad. It was a

0:31:55.720 --> 0:32:01.400
<v Speaker 2>kind of a weird one, but like it's it is. So.

0:32:01.680 --> 0:32:05.720
<v Speaker 2>I really respect Dan Campbell and I think he is

0:32:06.000 --> 0:32:08.560
<v Speaker 2>way more good than bad for the Lions. I don't

0:32:08.560 --> 0:32:12.600
<v Speaker 2>even think that's a question. But we're seeing some creaks

0:32:12.800 --> 0:32:14.760
<v Speaker 2>and the thing I can't.

0:32:17.120 --> 0:32:20.680
<v Speaker 3>He gets very like very gritty. I don't know falls

0:32:20.760 --> 0:32:23.200
<v Speaker 3>into the to the whole lore of it.

0:32:23.880 --> 0:32:26.719
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how to explain it does, but sometimes

0:32:26.800 --> 0:32:29.640
<v Speaker 2>you need Sometimes discretion is the better part of valor.

0:32:30.080 --> 0:32:35.360
<v Speaker 2>But also watching this Lions team just get brutalized by injuries.

0:32:36.400 --> 0:32:38.560
<v Speaker 2>It made me think of what he said to them,

0:32:39.280 --> 0:32:41.560
<v Speaker 2>what he said to the at the podium after the

0:32:41.720 --> 0:32:45.200
<v Speaker 2>NFC championship game. They kind of blew last year when

0:32:45.200 --> 0:32:46.680
<v Speaker 2>he was like, yeah, I told the guys we may

0:32:46.800 --> 0:32:49.760
<v Speaker 2>never be back here. This might have been our best chance.

0:32:50.560 --> 0:32:52.200
<v Speaker 2>He said that to the media, and it was like,

0:32:52.400 --> 0:32:56.080
<v Speaker 2>really stunning. He was just being honest. He was like, yeah,

0:32:56.080 --> 0:32:58.959
<v Speaker 2>I told the guys, like it's really hard, this might

0:32:59.040 --> 0:33:01.680
<v Speaker 2>have been our best chance. Hopefully that motivates them, you know,

0:33:01.800 --> 0:33:05.120
<v Speaker 2>over the summer. But it was true. And this is

0:33:05.200 --> 0:33:08.240
<v Speaker 2>why Man Lions looked like the best team in football

0:33:08.280 --> 0:33:12.440
<v Speaker 2>three weeks ago. Now they're in a three way tie

0:33:12.480 --> 0:33:19.240
<v Speaker 2>atop their conference and the injuries are just absolutely devastating.

0:33:20.520 --> 0:33:20.880
<v Speaker 2>All right.

0:33:21.000 --> 0:33:28.160
<v Speaker 3>Next, So the Eagles won aerially. Aerially gets Pittsburgh, and

0:33:29.440 --> 0:33:32.200
<v Speaker 3>y know, Jalen Hurts took like maybe a victory lap

0:33:32.280 --> 0:33:34.520
<v Speaker 3>on the podium. Seems like it might have annoyed you

0:33:34.560 --> 0:33:36.240
<v Speaker 3>a little bit, though, what's your what's your gripe here?

0:33:38.640 --> 0:33:38.959
<v Speaker 3>All right?

0:33:39.520 --> 0:33:43.440
<v Speaker 2>So Jalen Hurts played great, by the way, past the game,

0:33:43.480 --> 0:33:47.680
<v Speaker 2>played great, great win for them. Uh we were by

0:33:47.760 --> 0:33:50.600
<v Speaker 2>the way, good job by us not falling it last

0:33:50.640 --> 0:33:53.360
<v Speaker 2>week into the oh Man Tomlin getting all those points

0:33:53.440 --> 0:33:59.480
<v Speaker 2>trap because non conference game, different spot. We understood that Philly,

0:33:59.720 --> 0:34:02.560
<v Speaker 2>that Pittsburgh's game of the year is next week or

0:34:02.680 --> 0:34:05.719
<v Speaker 2>this week against Baltimore. They win that game, they win

0:34:05.840 --> 0:34:10.160
<v Speaker 2>the division. So you know, different circumstance. By the way, again,

0:34:10.280 --> 0:34:14.960
<v Speaker 2>sorry to bring up the Chiefs again. Sneaky potential, slight

0:34:15.200 --> 0:34:19.120
<v Speaker 2>benefit of this brutal three games in ten days stretch.

0:34:19.760 --> 0:34:24.240
<v Speaker 2>The Chiefs have a real chance of playing consecutive games,

0:34:24.960 --> 0:34:28.520
<v Speaker 2>maybe three in a row, depending on what happens with Denver. Well, well,

0:34:28.520 --> 0:34:31.920
<v Speaker 2>it wouldn't just let me just go consecutive games, consecutive

0:34:32.000 --> 0:34:37.680
<v Speaker 2>games against teams that the previous week clinched their division.

0:34:38.640 --> 0:34:41.960
<v Speaker 2>This week, Houston clinched the South, So I wonder how

0:34:42.040 --> 0:34:46.000
<v Speaker 2>that impacts them for this game on Saturday. And if

0:34:46.080 --> 0:34:51.480
<v Speaker 2>the Steelers win on Saturday, they clinched the North. How

0:34:51.520 --> 0:34:53.840
<v Speaker 2>does that impact them for the game on Wednesday. But

0:34:54.000 --> 0:34:57.120
<v Speaker 2>let me set that aside. Jalen hurts, So, Jalen Hurts

0:34:57.120 --> 0:35:03.480
<v Speaker 2>plays great, they win, and he says smugly. So that's

0:35:03.520 --> 0:35:04.760
<v Speaker 2>what y'all wanted to see.

0:35:04.680 --> 0:35:05.000
<v Speaker 3>Right.

0:35:06.920 --> 0:35:13.880
<v Speaker 2>As if the media started this buddy. Here is the

0:35:14.120 --> 0:35:22.160
<v Speaker 2>order of operations. The Philadelphia Eagles win their ninth straight

0:35:22.280 --> 0:35:26.960
<v Speaker 2>game to get to eleven and two. Sakuon Barkley is

0:35:27.040 --> 0:35:30.680
<v Speaker 2>the toast of the town. Might win MVP from the

0:35:30.800 --> 0:35:37.120
<v Speaker 2>running back position. Seems like the defense is elite, seems

0:35:37.200 --> 0:35:40.359
<v Speaker 2>like all's good. Media shows up in the locker room

0:35:40.440 --> 0:35:45.600
<v Speaker 2>after AJ Brown, who was visibly pissed on the sidelines,

0:35:46.120 --> 0:35:49.640
<v Speaker 2>They ask him about it. AJ Brown, who is not

0:35:49.960 --> 0:35:53.319
<v Speaker 2>in the media, says, hey, Aj, what do you need

0:35:53.400 --> 0:35:58.000
<v Speaker 2>to work on? Passing? Makes it vote? He seems angry

0:35:58.040 --> 0:36:03.600
<v Speaker 2>and pissed. The next day, the longest tenured Eagle goes

0:36:03.800 --> 0:36:08.560
<v Speaker 2>on the radio and says, yeah, man, AJ's super pissed.

0:36:09.120 --> 0:36:11.440
<v Speaker 2>Probably better to keep that in house. And it's just

0:36:11.560 --> 0:36:15.000
<v Speaker 2>such a shame because he and Jalen used to be friends.

0:36:15.920 --> 0:36:20.040
<v Speaker 2>That's what happened. This was not a media creation. This

0:36:20.320 --> 0:36:24.560
<v Speaker 2>was your star wide receiver and your defense team leader creation.

0:36:25.360 --> 0:36:27.160
<v Speaker 2>And so for him to then come out and be like,

0:36:27.200 --> 0:36:30.759
<v Speaker 2>all right, you guys demanded it, So we gave it

0:36:30.840 --> 0:36:35.400
<v Speaker 2>to you. Your guys demanded it, And by the here's

0:36:35.440 --> 0:36:39.760
<v Speaker 2>the thing. And even in a win, the Eagles can't

0:36:39.880 --> 0:36:43.920
<v Speaker 2>stay out of their own media way, because even in

0:36:44.000 --> 0:36:48.320
<v Speaker 2>a win, you got Siriani and the defensive line coach

0:36:48.760 --> 0:36:52.680
<v Speaker 2>going belly to belly yelling at each other. Big Dom

0:36:52.840 --> 0:36:54.800
<v Speaker 2>is sitting there like, what am I supposed to do? That?

0:36:54.960 --> 0:36:58.160
<v Speaker 2>Dude's actually bigger than me, Like I, this is not

0:36:58.280 --> 0:37:05.080
<v Speaker 2>what I'm equipped for, and so I just I can't.

0:37:05.600 --> 0:37:09.200
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's just unfathomable. The like I told you, So,

0:37:10.760 --> 0:37:15.920
<v Speaker 2>now here's the thing, man, Maybe here is the thing

0:37:16.520 --> 0:37:21.000
<v Speaker 2>to win the super Bowl. That is what we need

0:37:21.120 --> 0:37:26.320
<v Speaker 2>to see in the Super Bowl. You are going to

0:37:26.440 --> 0:37:29.879
<v Speaker 2>be playing if you get there, either the Kansas City

0:37:30.040 --> 0:37:33.560
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs or the Buffalo Bills, or I'll be nice to

0:37:33.640 --> 0:37:35.800
<v Speaker 2>demand and include the Baltimore Ravens.

0:37:37.320 --> 0:37:37.920
<v Speaker 3>Appreciate it.

0:37:38.760 --> 0:37:42.600
<v Speaker 2>If you're playing one of those three teams, you're gonna

0:37:42.680 --> 0:37:45.640
<v Speaker 2>have to be able to win through the air. You're

0:37:45.719 --> 0:37:47.520
<v Speaker 2>not gonna be able to ground and pound your way

0:37:47.600 --> 0:37:49.880
<v Speaker 2>to a win in that game. So, yes, that is

0:37:49.960 --> 0:37:53.719
<v Speaker 2>what people needed to see, but we weren't demanding it.

0:37:54.360 --> 0:37:59.799
<v Speaker 2>Your teammates were also. I will say this, shout out

0:37:59.840 --> 0:38:07.360
<v Speaker 2>to Jail and Hurts for reminding of America what real

0:38:07.600 --> 0:38:11.040
<v Speaker 2>jewelry can look like. Not some of this, not not

0:38:12.000 --> 0:38:16.520
<v Speaker 2>not not some of this. Oh man, I I I

0:38:17.640 --> 0:38:21.239
<v Speaker 2>got this on loan and I spent again. I'm gonna

0:38:21.239 --> 0:38:23.400
<v Speaker 2>say a big amount of money, but not you know, I,

0:38:24.040 --> 0:38:27.120
<v Speaker 2>Oh I got this this sweet pendant for eight grand

0:38:27.239 --> 0:38:31.120
<v Speaker 2>No no, no, that's that right there. That was at

0:38:31.280 --> 0:38:34.440
<v Speaker 2>least a six figure medallion. And it looked like it

0:38:35.160 --> 0:38:39.440
<v Speaker 2>and I respect it. Like there there is uh Sometimes

0:38:39.520 --> 0:38:43.680
<v Speaker 2>you think like, oh man, like how much money do

0:38:43.800 --> 0:38:47.960
<v Speaker 2>the ballplayers have? And the answer is the most like

0:38:48.200 --> 0:38:52.160
<v Speaker 2>whenever there's a question about in like kind of like

0:38:53.160 --> 0:38:56.319
<v Speaker 2>I don't want tosarily say hip hop culture, but kind

0:38:56.360 --> 0:38:59.960
<v Speaker 2>of is like urban hip hop athlete culture. In that culture,

0:39:00.520 --> 0:39:06.440
<v Speaker 2>it's a lot of musicians that have jewelry. It's not

0:39:06.560 --> 0:39:10.759
<v Speaker 2>ballplayer jewelry. And by the way, Jalen hurts, the last

0:39:10.840 --> 0:39:13.799
<v Speaker 2>thing he wanted was for an NBA player to walk

0:39:13.840 --> 0:39:17.640
<v Speaker 2>into that press conference because then all it's like, oh man,

0:39:18.080 --> 0:39:22.600
<v Speaker 2>you got that guaranteed, you got that fully guaranteed jewelry.

0:39:23.440 --> 0:39:27.479
<v Speaker 2>And so I listen, Jalen looked great and played great,

0:39:27.840 --> 0:39:30.200
<v Speaker 2>and I give him credit, But that hole, that's what

0:39:30.320 --> 0:39:32.680
<v Speaker 2>you wanted to see. The grass is green where you

0:39:32.840 --> 0:39:36.160
<v Speaker 2>water it well, then put a little fertilizer on the

0:39:36.239 --> 0:39:39.919
<v Speaker 2>passing game then fella, because that was a concern. Quick

0:39:40.000 --> 0:39:48.239
<v Speaker 2>break right back, What's right? Welcome back in What's right

0:39:48.280 --> 0:39:51.160
<v Speaker 2>with Nick? Right? Uh? So we got a bunch still

0:39:51.239 --> 0:39:54.960
<v Speaker 2>to do today, and I want to give you guys

0:39:55.120 --> 0:39:59.000
<v Speaker 2>an update if we can on uh poker w s

0:39:59.080 --> 0:40:03.160
<v Speaker 2>op paradigse at the Bahamas. So we got a clip

0:40:03.200 --> 0:40:04.520
<v Speaker 2>we can play and then I'll tell you guys what

0:40:04.600 --> 0:40:08.480
<v Speaker 2>I was doing. Go ahead and roll the clip. The

0:40:08.719 --> 0:40:12.040
<v Speaker 2>dream would be to win this thing, yes, but I don't.

0:40:12.120 --> 0:40:14.680
<v Speaker 2>It takes a while, and that's really the only reason

0:40:14.920 --> 0:40:18.520
<v Speaker 2>I couldn't win. It is the time, the time, and

0:40:18.719 --> 0:40:22.880
<v Speaker 2>so given the time constraints, the second dream is to

0:40:23.040 --> 0:40:28.319
<v Speaker 2>commentate it. So this what do you laugh about? Tom's Yeah,

0:40:28.360 --> 0:40:31.719
<v Speaker 2>I could just have the time, the time. I mean,

0:40:32.280 --> 0:40:36.080
<v Speaker 2>it is six million for first place. Shout out, so

0:40:36.560 --> 0:40:40.120
<v Speaker 2>little poker stuff here quickly. So the World Series of

0:40:40.200 --> 0:40:43.520
<v Speaker 2>Poker is in not so much of a cold war,

0:40:43.680 --> 0:40:48.480
<v Speaker 2>kind of a hot war with these other poker entities,

0:40:49.120 --> 0:40:51.520
<v Speaker 2>and they decided they were going to try to basically

0:40:51.760 --> 0:40:57.680
<v Speaker 2>steal the December Poker Festival corner from their competitors. And

0:40:57.800 --> 0:41:01.120
<v Speaker 2>they have this massive World Series of Poker Paradise event

0:41:01.680 --> 0:41:05.680
<v Speaker 2>at Atlantis and the Bahamas that this year had a

0:41:05.840 --> 0:41:08.040
<v Speaker 2>twenty five well they had a half a million dollar

0:41:08.160 --> 0:41:11.120
<v Speaker 2>invitational buy in, multiple one hundred thousand dollars buy ins

0:41:11.160 --> 0:41:13.959
<v Speaker 2>for like the super pros or the super rich business people,

0:41:14.280 --> 0:41:18.279
<v Speaker 2>but they also had a twenty five thousand dollars buy

0:41:18.360 --> 0:41:25.000
<v Speaker 2>in super main event with a fifty five zero million

0:41:25.200 --> 0:41:29.960
<v Speaker 2>dollars guaranteed total prize pool, the biggest in the history

0:41:30.040 --> 0:41:32.960
<v Speaker 2>of poker as far as a guarantee. And what that

0:41:33.120 --> 0:41:36.400
<v Speaker 2>guarantee means is, so if it's twenty five thousand to

0:41:36.640 --> 0:41:39.239
<v Speaker 2>enter and you're guaranteeing there'll be fifty million in the

0:41:39.280 --> 0:41:43.759
<v Speaker 2>prize pool, they needed two thousand entries. They needed two

0:41:43.880 --> 0:41:46.600
<v Speaker 2>thousand people to put up twenty five grand to play,

0:41:46.920 --> 0:41:51.080
<v Speaker 2>or enough people to rebuy, meaning they bust out and

0:41:51.160 --> 0:41:53.960
<v Speaker 2>then put another twenty five thousand in. I met a

0:41:54.040 --> 0:41:57.240
<v Speaker 2>guy there who fired six bullets in it. One hundred

0:41:57.239 --> 0:42:01.239
<v Speaker 2>and fifty grand in this thing, and it really and

0:42:01.320 --> 0:42:03.600
<v Speaker 2>if not, they got to put the money up themselves.

0:42:04.280 --> 0:42:07.719
<v Speaker 2>And they didn't get to two thousand, but my god,

0:42:07.840 --> 0:42:11.120
<v Speaker 2>they got close. I think they got to one nine

0:42:11.239 --> 0:42:14.960
<v Speaker 2>hundred and eighty seven something around there. So they came

0:42:15.160 --> 0:42:18.120
<v Speaker 2>like fifteen to twenty people short, so they almost hit

0:42:18.160 --> 0:42:21.160
<v Speaker 2>it without an overlay. There still was a slight overlay,

0:42:21.480 --> 0:42:25.160
<v Speaker 2>And I did commentary for it on Saturday, and I

0:42:25.239 --> 0:42:26.840
<v Speaker 2>think I'm gonna be doing more and more of the

0:42:26.920 --> 0:42:29.879
<v Speaker 2>World Series of Poker, and it is like my favorite thing.

0:42:30.400 --> 0:42:35.200
<v Speaker 2>And I'm gonna tell you this. It is. I've said

0:42:35.200 --> 0:42:37.920
<v Speaker 2>this four of all, say it again. Nothing gives me

0:42:38.160 --> 0:42:41.600
<v Speaker 2>more of like a childlike thrill, like when a kid

0:42:41.800 --> 0:42:47.120
<v Speaker 2>meets their favorite athlete, than when these professional poker players

0:42:48.080 --> 0:42:51.600
<v Speaker 2>are like I don't want to say want to meet me,

0:42:51.760 --> 0:42:53.920
<v Speaker 2>because it's not like that, but like aware of me

0:42:54.600 --> 0:42:57.040
<v Speaker 2>from the sports stuff, because so many of these guys

0:42:57.080 --> 0:43:00.480
<v Speaker 2>are also big time sports gamblers. And obviously, where else

0:43:00.480 --> 0:43:02.160
<v Speaker 2>would you go for your sports picks this year other

0:43:02.239 --> 0:43:05.320
<v Speaker 2>than Danny Parkins right here, Danny by the way, thirty

0:43:05.400 --> 0:43:10.120
<v Speaker 2>one and seventeen now against the spread thirty one and seventeen.

0:43:11.560 --> 0:43:15.399
<v Speaker 2>But so I get to see like Chance Cornith, who's

0:43:15.440 --> 0:43:18.239
<v Speaker 2>one of the greatest players in the world. After I

0:43:18.360 --> 0:43:22.560
<v Speaker 2>was done commentating, I played in a pot limit Omaha

0:43:22.719 --> 0:43:25.480
<v Speaker 2>cash game and he just sat with me and we

0:43:25.640 --> 0:43:28.440
<v Speaker 2>chatted and he sweated my cards. I tried to get

0:43:28.480 --> 0:43:32.200
<v Speaker 2>in the game with Jamie Golden Chris Moneymaker, which looked

0:43:32.280 --> 0:43:36.000
<v Speaker 2>like one of the softest PLO games running at the moment.

0:43:36.080 --> 0:43:38.440
<v Speaker 2>But there it was. Nobody was getting up like. It

0:43:38.560 --> 0:43:41.200
<v Speaker 2>was just so much fun. So if you check out

0:43:41.200 --> 0:43:46.040
<v Speaker 2>the wsop's YouTube page for Day one C the middle

0:43:46.080 --> 0:43:49.160
<v Speaker 2>part of Day one, see you can see some of

0:43:49.239 --> 0:43:51.279
<v Speaker 2>my commentary. And I hope that you're doing more of it.

0:43:51.640 --> 0:43:54.239
<v Speaker 2>All right, demon's let's talk a little Travis Hunter before

0:43:54.280 --> 0:43:55.040
<v Speaker 2>we get to our game.

0:43:56.040 --> 0:43:58.840
<v Speaker 3>Uh So, yeah, we wanted to discuss the Travis Hunters

0:43:58.880 --> 0:44:03.360
<v Speaker 3>getting the heisman. You wanted to discuss his girlfriend slash fiance,

0:44:03.680 --> 0:44:06.040
<v Speaker 3>So go ahead and let you go there.

0:44:08.440 --> 0:44:12.839

<v Speaker 3>Uh.

0:44:20.200 --> 0:44:23.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna have a take that might be might make

0:44:23.239 --> 0:44:27.759
<v Speaker 2>some of my friends in the media mad, might be unpopular.

0:44:27.840 --> 0:44:28.040
<v Speaker 3>Take.

0:44:29.360 --> 0:44:33.560

0:44:33.840 --> 0:44:34.160
<v Speaker 3>Please?

0:44:35.200 --> 0:44:35.920
<v Speaker 2>Like? Can we? Like?

0:44:36.040 --> 0:44:36.920
<v Speaker 3>She can?

0:44:37.120 --> 0:44:43.160
<v Speaker 2>Can we? I Travis doesn't yet fully know how to

0:44:43.239 --> 0:44:48.920
<v Speaker 2>be famous, His fiance definitely doesn't know how to be famous.

0:44:50.040 --> 0:44:56.200
<v Speaker 2>Their kids and the number of grown ass men that

0:44:56.400 --> 0:45:01.239
<v Speaker 2>are like, oh, trap, Like I've I've sniffed it out.

0:45:02.280 --> 0:45:05.400
<v Speaker 2>She didn't stand fast enough when he won the award.

0:45:06.040 --> 0:45:09.919
<v Speaker 2>She seems you know to me, me, me, he better

0:45:10.080 --> 0:45:14.000
<v Speaker 2>get a prenup er, he better break. Now's your exit.

0:45:15.760 --> 0:45:21.000
<v Speaker 2>You guys are jerks, man Like, seriously, it's so out

0:45:21.040 --> 0:45:26.560
<v Speaker 2>of line. Here's the thing, I know nothing about this relationship,

0:45:26.840 --> 0:45:31.239
<v Speaker 2>and I'm not gonna act as if every relationship's good

0:45:31.960 --> 0:45:35.839
<v Speaker 2>and that there are you know, obviously it's not leave

0:45:36.080 --> 0:45:40.840
<v Speaker 2>that to his actual people. Like this is this is

0:45:40.920 --> 0:45:45.440
<v Speaker 2>my frustration, and I really am shocked at And this

0:45:45.680 --> 0:45:51.080
<v Speaker 2>is like a real indictment on current social media because

0:45:51.120 --> 0:45:54.400
<v Speaker 2>it was pervasive. You couldn't avoid it and you couldn't

0:45:54.440 --> 0:45:57.080
<v Speaker 2>then like folks feel like, well, it's all over social media,

0:45:57.120 --> 0:45:59.600
<v Speaker 2>so I have to comment on it now. I'm commenting

0:45:59.800 --> 0:46:07.120
<v Speaker 2>on the commentary all of it. Guys. This kid has

0:46:07.320 --> 0:46:12.000
<v Speaker 2>people in his life. He has Dion Sanders in his life.

0:46:13.200 --> 0:46:19.560
<v Speaker 2>He has coaches and mentors and actual friends and actual

0:46:19.760 --> 0:46:24.960
<v Speaker 2>family that can give him actual advice. He doesn't. It's

0:46:25.040 --> 0:46:29.160
<v Speaker 2>not helpful for him or the young woman to have

0:46:30.200 --> 0:46:41.160
<v Speaker 2>her twelve second disposition or offhanded comment analyzed and broken

0:46:41.360 --> 0:46:47.920
<v Speaker 2>down and so again, I don't think I people be

0:46:48.000 --> 0:46:51.440
<v Speaker 2>like Nick. Last week you talked about Belichick's relationship, I

0:46:52.680 --> 0:46:55.759
<v Speaker 2>talking about a seventy two year old man's decision to

0:46:55.880 --> 0:46:58.960
<v Speaker 2>publicly date a twenty four year old to me is

0:46:59.080 --> 0:47:05.160
<v Speaker 2>in bounds. Ripping a civilian who didn't sign up to

0:47:05.280 --> 0:47:11.000
<v Speaker 2>be this level of celebrity just endlessly because of her

0:47:11.200 --> 0:47:15.200
<v Speaker 2>body language or a curt comment during like an autograph

0:47:15.320 --> 0:47:23.800
<v Speaker 2>signing is so just mean. And I, I guess I

0:47:24.200 --> 0:47:29.240
<v Speaker 2>have a hard time not thinking about maybe you'll appreciate this, Demanse.

0:47:29.920 --> 0:47:32.640
<v Speaker 2>I have a hard time not whenever it's young people

0:47:33.200 --> 0:47:37.760
<v Speaker 2>not thinking about your or Diora. If the audience doesn't

0:47:37.840 --> 0:47:41.439
<v Speaker 2>know one of Demonsi's sisters, the nineteen year old your

0:47:41.719 --> 0:47:50.440
<v Speaker 2>or Diora's most spoiled or annoying moments of late teenage

0:47:50.640 --> 0:47:53.520
<v Speaker 2>early you know what I mean? Like whatever you're whatever

0:47:53.640 --> 0:47:59.040
<v Speaker 2>you're like, you know you're AH, wouldn't want that shared

0:47:59.080 --> 0:48:02.080
<v Speaker 2>all over the internet. Kind of look like a jerk

0:48:02.200 --> 0:48:07.000
<v Speaker 2>or entitled or whatever. Those moments and how they are

0:48:07.080 --> 0:48:10.400
<v Speaker 2>not at all indicative of who you are, but indicative

0:48:10.440 --> 0:48:14.440
<v Speaker 2>of adolescents and young adulthood and people having bad days

0:48:14.520 --> 0:48:17.000
<v Speaker 2>and all of it and of all of a sudden

0:48:18.080 --> 0:48:23.640
<v Speaker 2>that were broadcast to the world and now it's like

0:48:23.760 --> 0:48:26.279
<v Speaker 2>you gotta break up with her, and what it does like,

0:48:26.440 --> 0:48:31.880
<v Speaker 2>I just think it's so crummy, and I I just

0:48:32.000 --> 0:48:37.440
<v Speaker 2>think people don't realize or remember what it's like to

0:48:37.600 --> 0:48:42.040
<v Speaker 2>be around that age and how in our own head

0:48:42.239 --> 0:48:47.960
<v Speaker 2>we all are or were. I to this day, I

0:48:48.120 --> 0:48:55.320
<v Speaker 2>have a very vivid memory, very vivid of being in

0:48:55.520 --> 0:49:00.120
<v Speaker 2>my mom's dad, my grandfather. This is maybe like an

0:49:00.160 --> 0:49:02.480
<v Speaker 2>embarrassing story to tell, but I don't mind telling it

0:49:02.600 --> 0:49:06.920
<v Speaker 2>because I maybe maybe people will give people just a

0:49:07.080 --> 0:49:13.600
<v Speaker 2>touch more grace being in my mom's father's hospital room.

0:49:14.960 --> 0:49:15.400
<v Speaker 3>He was.

0:49:17.000 --> 0:49:23.040
<v Speaker 2>Ninety something at the time, and it was he ended

0:49:23.120 --> 0:49:26.520
<v Speaker 2>up living like another I don't know, six months, nine months,

0:49:26.600 --> 0:49:28.920
<v Speaker 2>something like that, but in the moment, it was like, oh,

0:49:29.040 --> 0:49:32.879
<v Speaker 2>he might be dying right now. I remember being in there,

0:49:34.360 --> 0:49:40.840
<v Speaker 2>and I remember my mom understandably being super disappointed is

0:49:40.880 --> 0:49:44.920
<v Speaker 2>probably the right word with me, because I couldn't get

0:49:45.000 --> 0:49:48.520
<v Speaker 2>off my phone because I was in a fight with

0:49:48.680 --> 0:49:52.520
<v Speaker 2>my girlfriend in college and I was so just I

0:49:52.600 --> 0:49:55.440
<v Speaker 2>couldn't see the world past my own nose. And it

0:49:55.600 --> 0:49:58.120
<v Speaker 2>was the thing, like that was the thing that I

0:49:58.280 --> 0:50:02.040
<v Speaker 2>was seeing at the moment, I didn't have the I

0:50:02.360 --> 0:50:05.880
<v Speaker 2>hadn't activated the full levels of like compassion in my

0:50:06.120 --> 0:50:10.160
<v Speaker 2>brain yet to recognize, Amen, whatever's going on with you.

0:50:11.360 --> 0:50:16.120
<v Speaker 2>Your mom is worried her father is dying, like he

0:50:16.400 --> 0:50:18.960
<v Speaker 2>you know what I mean, This could be your last

0:50:19.200 --> 0:50:25.080
<v Speaker 2>moments together, like get out of your own stuff and

0:50:25.280 --> 0:50:28.960
<v Speaker 2>be there for your people. I still look back on

0:50:29.080 --> 0:50:33.600
<v Speaker 2>that and cringe, and I'm so grateful that he didn't

0:50:33.719 --> 0:50:36.960
<v Speaker 2>die that weekend and that I got more time with him.

0:50:37.680 --> 0:50:40.000
<v Speaker 2>But I also look back on it and try to

0:50:40.040 --> 0:50:45.279
<v Speaker 2>get myself grace, Like, eh, I was nineteen, Like it

0:50:45.560 --> 0:50:49.279
<v Speaker 2>was like I couldn't I couldn't see anything bigger than that.

0:50:50.320 --> 0:50:54.840
<v Speaker 2>And so I only even tell that story because everyone's

0:50:55.080 --> 0:50:59.640
<v Speaker 2>dragging this girl, because I couldn't even watch the clip

0:51:00.160 --> 0:51:02.839
<v Speaker 2>because I felt it was so like just everyone's comment

0:51:02.840 --> 0:51:05.759
<v Speaker 2>to her. So meet but evidently like he was doing

0:51:05.880 --> 0:51:08.320
<v Speaker 2>some meet and greet and she said like wait, I

0:51:08.360 --> 0:51:10.840
<v Speaker 2>gotta sit here all day or something like that. I

0:51:10.880 --> 0:51:14.799
<v Speaker 2>don't know, and everyone's like, oh, this selfish whatever man,

0:51:15.000 --> 0:51:23.400
<v Speaker 2>like yeah, do you know any twenty somethings? Yeah, like that,

0:51:23.680 --> 0:51:29.840
<v Speaker 2>that's that's the deal. And so I just I I

0:51:30.080 --> 0:51:32.800
<v Speaker 2>just felt it. And here's the last piece of it

0:51:33.000 --> 0:51:40.759
<v Speaker 2>that I'm gonna say. I also think that people are

0:51:40.960 --> 0:51:44.960
<v Speaker 2>lying when they're like, I'm just trying to help Travis. No,

0:51:45.080 --> 0:51:49.640
<v Speaker 2>you're not, You're just trying to comment on the hot topic.

0:51:51.239 --> 0:51:55.040
<v Speaker 2>If it was really about helping Travis, some of these

0:51:55.120 --> 0:51:59.400
<v Speaker 2>people are big enough, they might have access to Travis.

0:52:00.440 --> 0:52:05.080
<v Speaker 2>Some of our legit famous NFL athletes or former NFL

0:52:05.120 --> 0:52:10.080
<v Speaker 2>athletes whatever, certainly have access to Prime. And if you

0:52:10.280 --> 0:52:13.520
<v Speaker 2>don't trust the people in his circle to know more,

0:52:14.719 --> 0:52:18.799
<v Speaker 2>and so I don't. I didn't like it. I didn't

0:52:18.880 --> 0:52:24.360
<v Speaker 2>like it one bit, and I just I it feels

0:52:24.440 --> 0:52:28.960
<v Speaker 2>to me like there is a part of all of

0:52:29.120 --> 0:52:35.080
<v Speaker 2>us kind of losing our compassion is maybe.

0:52:34.920 --> 0:52:35.439
<v Speaker 3>The right word.

0:52:35.480 --> 0:52:42.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure understanding because the empathy there, you'll thank you,

0:52:44.560 --> 0:52:49.320
<v Speaker 2>because our social media algorithms are really just like really

0:52:49.440 --> 0:52:52.440
<v Speaker 2>sending us this stuff and then it starts to snowball.

0:52:54.920 --> 0:52:56.279
<v Speaker 2>So like, I don't know, I don't know if you

0:52:56.360 --> 0:52:59.040
<v Speaker 2>wanted to say anything demand say, I know you didn't

0:52:59.040 --> 0:53:01.160
<v Speaker 2>know where I was gonna go with that, had no

0:53:01.239 --> 0:53:04.040
<v Speaker 2>idea you saw this in the rundown that I was

0:53:04.080 --> 0:53:04.680
<v Speaker 2>gonna rip her.

0:53:05.760 --> 0:53:09.400
<v Speaker 3>No, no, no, there was no chance. I figured I

0:53:09.520 --> 0:53:12.400
<v Speaker 3>figured you would lean more of that side than in

0:53:12.520 --> 0:53:16.680
<v Speaker 3>that direction. But yeah, I didn't realize we were talking

0:53:16.680 --> 0:53:19.319
<v Speaker 3>about the girlfriend until it got over here. They got

0:53:19.360 --> 0:53:22.040
<v Speaker 3>switched up. But yeah, I mean it's they're obviously kids,

0:53:22.120 --> 0:53:24.239
<v Speaker 3>and I see why you you said, if you can

0:53:24.320 --> 0:53:27.640
<v Speaker 3>be in that state while your mom's dad is literally passing,

0:53:28.160 --> 0:53:30.520
<v Speaker 3>it's like I get it, Like it is hard to

0:53:30.560 --> 0:53:33.640
<v Speaker 3>see pass and I remember I'm like four or five

0:53:33.719 --> 0:53:34.320
<v Speaker 3>years removed.

0:53:34.840 --> 0:53:37.239
<v Speaker 2>Uh yeah, I mean you might. I think she's a

0:53:37.280 --> 0:53:40.400
<v Speaker 2>little older. She might be around I'm not sure exactly

0:53:40.440 --> 0:53:42.040
<v Speaker 2>how old she is. Maybe I should have looked this up.

0:53:42.040 --> 0:53:43.400
<v Speaker 2>Maybe one of the producers can put it in the

0:53:43.480 --> 0:53:45.759
<v Speaker 2>rundown for me. She I think she's a little older

0:53:45.800 --> 0:53:48.000
<v Speaker 2>than Travis, so she might be around your age. But

0:53:48.200 --> 0:53:48.880
<v Speaker 2>like it's all.

0:53:50.800 --> 0:53:55.680
<v Speaker 3>The large media that's criticizing.

0:53:55.200 --> 0:53:59.400
<v Speaker 2>Her certainly didn't and did not sign up for the

0:54:00.440 --> 0:54:03.919
<v Speaker 2>this level of public spotlight. Like that's the other piece

0:54:03.960 --> 0:54:06.600
<v Speaker 2>of it. The other piece of it is, Okay, she's

0:54:06.680 --> 0:54:11.160
<v Speaker 2>twenty three, so I mean, yeah, so around Travis's ades, like,

0:54:11.239 --> 0:54:16.280
<v Speaker 2>it's just thank you, I I have I have different

0:54:17.920 --> 0:54:20.520
<v Speaker 2>X there. I don't know, I've spent enough time on it.

0:54:20.680 --> 0:54:24.000
<v Speaker 2>There's different rules for people that are like I want

0:54:24.160 --> 0:54:27.960
<v Speaker 2>to be in the public eye at all times, and

0:54:28.480 --> 0:54:31.040
<v Speaker 2>you know the I feel like I.

0:54:33.680 --> 0:54:37.600
<v Speaker 3>I have an oh go ahead, no, no, go ahead,

0:54:37.680 --> 0:54:39.840
<v Speaker 3>you have a no, I just I.

0:54:41.320 --> 0:54:46.440
<v Speaker 2>I have. I understand that every time. And I'm not

0:54:46.520 --> 0:54:49.360
<v Speaker 2>acting like I'm some big celebrity, but I'm a public person.

0:54:49.880 --> 0:54:52.360
<v Speaker 2>I understand that every time I go out in public,

0:54:53.200 --> 0:55:00.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm accountable for every action in a way if I

0:55:00.360 --> 0:55:05.240
<v Speaker 2>had you know, the my producer who does a great job, Hubbs,

0:55:05.480 --> 0:55:08.320
<v Speaker 2>isn't you know what I mean? Like Hubbs has a

0:55:08.360 --> 0:55:12.040
<v Speaker 2>big time, important job, but it's a relatively anonymous job.

0:55:12.680 --> 0:55:20.720
<v Speaker 2>And I I you are more accountable in public because

0:55:20.719 --> 0:55:25.240
<v Speaker 2>of this than the other guys you work with behind

0:55:25.280 --> 0:55:28.160
<v Speaker 2>the scenes on the Herd because you have you know,

0:55:28.800 --> 0:55:33.240
<v Speaker 2>you have a public profile to a degree. Travis didn't

0:55:34.680 --> 0:55:37.960
<v Speaker 2>sign up to be a celebrity. He's a celebrity because

0:55:38.000 --> 0:55:40.359
<v Speaker 2>of his own excellence. But he still knows it now.

0:55:41.520 --> 0:55:46.440
<v Speaker 2>The girlfriend like I I had never seen this person

0:55:46.640 --> 0:55:51.040
<v Speaker 2>until two weeks ago, So like you can be like.

0:55:51.120 --> 0:55:55.120
<v Speaker 3>Oh, I'm gonna say one thing. I'm not playing Devil's

0:55:55.160 --> 0:55:58.440
<v Speaker 3>advocate or anything. Yeah, No, she wasn't. She was in

0:55:58.520 --> 0:56:02.440
<v Speaker 3>the Adidas commercial. She isn't like yeah, literally yes commercial.

0:56:02.600 --> 0:56:06.120
<v Speaker 2>No, that's you know what that's actually So that is

0:56:06.640 --> 0:56:09.680
<v Speaker 2>a fair point that she now has signed up at

0:56:09.840 --> 0:56:13.920
<v Speaker 2>some level of public profile and I forget about that.

0:56:14.040 --> 0:56:18.160
<v Speaker 2>That is a good point. I would add two things

0:56:18.200 --> 0:56:21.640
<v Speaker 2>to One is so if she is a public person now,

0:56:21.920 --> 0:56:25.200
<v Speaker 2>it's brand new to her. And the other one is,

0:56:26.040 --> 0:56:31.560
<v Speaker 2>I think this vitriol she's been receiving, she would have

0:56:31.640 --> 0:56:34.200
<v Speaker 2>been receiving either way. Oh and that's the other thing.

0:56:34.600 --> 0:56:37.880
<v Speaker 2>People killed him, now that you mentioned it. People killed

0:56:37.960 --> 0:56:40.480
<v Speaker 2>him and her for that, like what she doing in

0:56:40.520 --> 0:56:45.200
<v Speaker 2>the commercial. Hey man, he loves her like I they

0:56:45.800 --> 0:56:48.440
<v Speaker 2>and again they're they're young kids, and a lot of

0:56:48.560 --> 0:56:53.160
<v Speaker 2>us are like man, look back on are high school

0:56:53.239 --> 0:56:56.360
<v Speaker 2>or college sweethearts. And I, you know, I always felt

0:56:56.480 --> 0:57:04.320
<v Speaker 2>I remember I'm not gonna name names because certain factions

0:57:04.360 --> 0:57:07.200
<v Speaker 2>on the internet will seize on it, but I remember

0:57:07.280 --> 0:57:11.200
<v Speaker 2>watching the Chiefs win their first Super Bowl and everyone

0:57:11.320 --> 0:57:15.880
<v Speaker 2>is celebrating with their you know, parents and wives or whatever,

0:57:17.400 --> 0:57:20.480
<v Speaker 2>and there was a certain player, very high level player,

0:57:21.280 --> 0:57:25.280
<v Speaker 2>who is his whole celebrations with his girlfriend. And I

0:57:25.400 --> 0:57:28.000
<v Speaker 2>remember seeing it and thinking to myself, I'm like, oh, man,

0:57:28.960 --> 0:57:33.360
<v Speaker 2>I really hope that relationship doesn't turn sour at some point,

0:57:34.040 --> 0:57:38.040
<v Speaker 2>because this is an artifact. You know what I mean.

0:57:38.120 --> 0:57:42.440
<v Speaker 2>This is it's the same way I felt when Tiger

0:57:43.240 --> 0:57:48.240
<v Speaker 2>won the Masters, after everything, the last major he's won,

0:57:48.840 --> 0:57:51.320
<v Speaker 2>his kids come and greet him, and his girlfriend does

0:57:51.440 --> 0:57:54.480
<v Speaker 2>two and it's like, oh, it's a risky one, like

0:57:54.640 --> 0:57:57.440
<v Speaker 2>because and now you can get married and divorced, obviously,

0:57:58.720 --> 0:58:01.000
<v Speaker 2>and in both of those instant when I saw it,

0:58:01.840 --> 0:58:04.680
<v Speaker 2>not only did that player and Tiger end up bringing

0:58:04.760 --> 0:58:07.000
<v Speaker 2>up with that person, but it appears to have been

0:58:07.200 --> 0:58:09.920
<v Speaker 2>kind of an ugly aftermath, and I'm like, oh, that

0:58:10.160 --> 0:58:12.480
<v Speaker 2>sucks that, Like you know what I mean. When they

0:58:12.520 --> 0:58:16.520
<v Speaker 2>are playing your Hall of Fame video and show you

0:58:17.520 --> 0:58:20.040
<v Speaker 2>winning your first Super Bowl, it's like the embrace with

0:58:20.240 --> 0:58:22.840
<v Speaker 2>its like iikes, but like that's the And so if

0:58:22.880 --> 0:58:27.800
<v Speaker 2>somebody close to Travis was like, hey, this is your

0:58:27.880 --> 0:58:30.480
<v Speaker 2>first commercial, think about this, you know what I mean, Like,

0:58:30.640 --> 0:58:35.120
<v Speaker 2>way that way exactly what it was, that's legitimate advice, right,

0:58:35.200 --> 0:58:39.360
<v Speaker 2>he doesn't need it from the internet. All right, let's

0:58:39.440 --> 0:58:42.240
<v Speaker 2>quickly play I don't even know what this is bracket.

0:58:43.400 --> 0:58:45.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure what we call it, but go ahead.

0:58:45.520 --> 0:58:48.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, So while some teams are slowing down, others are

0:58:48.040 --> 0:58:51.120
<v Speaker 3>getting hot at the right time. History always, history has

0:58:51.120 --> 0:58:53.560
<v Speaker 3>always says that there's that one dark horse team that

0:58:53.680 --> 0:58:55.840
<v Speaker 3>gets hot at the end of the season. So we're

0:58:55.840 --> 0:58:57.360
<v Speaker 3>gonna do a quick bracket on packet.

0:58:58.400 --> 0:59:02.040
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, we've got seventeen. So this is so we're

0:59:02.160 --> 0:59:05.960
<v Speaker 2>removing the favorites. So the Chiefs, the Eagles, the Bills,

0:59:06.040 --> 0:59:08.760
<v Speaker 2>the Lions are out of there. And then it's like

0:59:08.880 --> 0:59:13.600
<v Speaker 2>the I don't want to play team. So the the

0:59:13.720 --> 0:59:18.520
<v Speaker 2>producers correctly figured out my love for the Rams and

0:59:18.640 --> 0:59:21.960
<v Speaker 2>gave them the one seed in the bye smart you

0:59:22.000 --> 0:59:24.000
<v Speaker 2>could have given you know, put an eight seed in there,

0:59:24.120 --> 0:59:27.400
<v Speaker 2>Like who would the eight seed be right now, I

0:59:27.440 --> 0:59:29.800
<v Speaker 2>don't know, the Chargers or something that's smart. So the

0:59:29.920 --> 0:59:34.480
<v Speaker 2>Rams advanced bottom side of their bracket for playoff dark Horses,

0:59:34.800 --> 0:59:37.760
<v Speaker 2>Packers or Broncos, no question about it, that would be

0:59:37.800 --> 0:59:42.400
<v Speaker 2>the Packers. Packers even maybe better than dark horse Packers. Legit,

0:59:42.520 --> 0:59:46.080
<v Speaker 2>good team. They just have a brutal role ahead of them.

0:59:46.600 --> 0:59:49.840
<v Speaker 2>Like listen, they're ten and four. Jordan's playing well, it's

0:59:49.960 --> 0:59:52.920
<v Speaker 2>just a very very say it, yeah he is, But

0:59:53.040 --> 0:59:56.320
<v Speaker 2>they's just three straight road games to make the Super Bowl.

0:59:56.360 --> 1:00:00.720
<v Speaker 2>That's probably too much for them, but they credit to them.

1:00:00.960 --> 1:00:02.960
<v Speaker 2>Go to the other side of the bracket. This one's

1:00:03.000 --> 1:00:07.640
<v Speaker 2>easy to Bucks or Commanders. Bake show is cooking Commanders,

1:00:08.280 --> 1:00:10.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, not as wildly as they were, But that's

1:00:10.400 --> 1:00:15.320
<v Speaker 2>not easy one. And then this one, Demonsey's not gonna

1:00:15.400 --> 1:00:20.440
<v Speaker 2>like my answer you and I'm gonna do that. I mean,

1:00:20.480 --> 1:00:25.800
<v Speaker 2>I mean, if you're asking me who I would be

1:00:25.920 --> 1:00:30.160
<v Speaker 2>more concerned about the Vikings with that Brian Flores defense

1:00:30.240 --> 1:00:34.360
<v Speaker 2>and Justin Jefferson or the Ravens with that defense and

1:00:34.480 --> 1:00:37.320
<v Speaker 2>Lamar's playoff history, I'd be more concerned with the Vikings.

1:00:37.680 --> 1:00:42.960
<v Speaker 2>That's just my answer people. I mean, left side of

1:00:43.000 --> 1:00:46.560
<v Speaker 2>the bracket, Rams, Packers, that'd be a great playoff game.

1:00:47.680 --> 1:00:51.280
<v Speaker 2>I'd go with Stafford and McVeigh. So I'd say the Rams,

1:00:51.760 --> 1:00:59.840
<v Speaker 2>right side of the bracket, Bucks, Vikings. My heart says

1:01:00.040 --> 1:01:03.640
<v Speaker 2>make show. My head says Vikings. Vikings are legit team man.

1:01:04.480 --> 1:01:06.800
<v Speaker 2>And by the way, we're including them as a dark

1:01:06.840 --> 1:01:09.560
<v Speaker 2>horse even though they they're twelve and two, the second

1:01:09.600 --> 1:01:11.960
<v Speaker 2>best record in the league and my number one is

1:01:12.040 --> 1:01:14.560
<v Speaker 2>the number one seed and our thing playoff dark horse

1:01:14.600 --> 1:01:16.560
<v Speaker 2>the Rams. I think the Rams can get to the

1:01:16.600 --> 1:01:19.600
<v Speaker 2>super Bowl. Oh I didn't tell you. Maybe I did

1:01:19.720 --> 1:01:25.280
<v Speaker 2>tell you. Hold on when the Rams were they started

1:01:25.400 --> 1:01:29.800
<v Speaker 2>one in four? Yeah, I let me let me see

1:01:29.800 --> 1:01:31.760
<v Speaker 2>if I can find the date of this. I have

1:01:31.880 --> 1:01:32.880
<v Speaker 2>to check it was the date.

1:01:34.040 --> 1:01:35.360
<v Speaker 3>I might have said something about it.

1:01:36.760 --> 1:01:42.080
<v Speaker 2>Oh my futures bet. Maybe it'll be maybe it'll be

1:01:42.240 --> 1:01:45.840
<v Speaker 2>on the slip when I made it. So I made

1:01:45.880 --> 1:01:53.480
<v Speaker 2>this bet on October twenty fifth at one am. Okay,

1:01:53.920 --> 1:01:55.640
<v Speaker 2>that's healthy. What am I doing?

1:01:55.720 --> 1:01:56.160
<v Speaker 3>What was so?

1:01:56.440 --> 1:01:58.240
<v Speaker 2>Let me see what the Rams had done that day.

1:02:00.120 --> 1:02:04.080
<v Speaker 2>So one am, October twenty fifth is when I made

1:02:04.120 --> 1:02:04.600
<v Speaker 2>this bet.

1:02:05.160 --> 1:02:06.200
<v Speaker 3>That day day.

1:02:08.200 --> 1:02:09.720
<v Speaker 2>It was that that was a Monday.

1:02:10.200 --> 1:02:12.640
<v Speaker 3>It was a Monday at one am. Yeah. Well wait,

1:02:12.720 --> 1:02:17.000
<v Speaker 3>October October twenty fifthday.

1:02:16.640 --> 1:02:20.400
<v Speaker 2>October twent It was right after the Rams had beaten

1:02:20.480 --> 1:02:23.960
<v Speaker 2>the Vikings. So the Rams had beaten the Vikings on

1:02:24.080 --> 1:02:27.160
<v Speaker 2>Thursday Night football to get to three and four. They

1:02:27.200 --> 1:02:29.280
<v Speaker 2>had started one and four, They got to three and four,

1:02:30.320 --> 1:02:37.160
<v Speaker 2>and I put a not small wager on them at

1:02:37.400 --> 1:02:40.360
<v Speaker 2>seventy five to one to win the Super Bowl.

1:02:40.880 --> 1:02:41.400
<v Speaker 3>To win it?

1:02:42.600 --> 1:02:46.320
<v Speaker 2>Wow, win the super Bowl seventy five to one, when

1:02:46.360 --> 1:02:50.760
<v Speaker 2>they were three and four. Uh yeah, I mean not

1:02:50.880 --> 1:02:53.520
<v Speaker 2>a not a massive I'm gonna text it to demons

1:02:53.680 --> 1:02:57.960
<v Speaker 2>because I I one thing that old age and I

1:02:58.000 --> 1:03:01.800
<v Speaker 2>guess professional success is pollue did is my ability to

1:03:01.920 --> 1:03:06.120
<v Speaker 2>determine what is like what is bet sizing. So I

1:03:06.360 --> 1:03:09.280
<v Speaker 2>just texted to you de Monsey. I would say I

1:03:09.440 --> 1:03:14.840
<v Speaker 2>put a medium sized bet on the Rams at seventy

1:03:14.920 --> 1:03:17.880
<v Speaker 2>five to one to win the Super Bowl. So I

1:03:18.000 --> 1:03:19.600
<v Speaker 2>am bett cooking for me.

1:03:19.960 --> 1:03:24.800
<v Speaker 3>I wait, so can you put bets on teams? Just

1:03:25.000 --> 1:03:25.760
<v Speaker 3>making it there?

1:03:26.640 --> 1:03:26.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

1:03:27.600 --> 1:03:30.520
<v Speaker 3>Okay, that's what That's what I figured, right.

1:03:31.640 --> 1:03:34.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, listen, are you saying like I don't

1:03:35.280 --> 1:03:38.920
<v Speaker 2>I'm team never hedge. But what I will tell you

1:03:39.120 --> 1:03:43.400
<v Speaker 2>is this, I if the Rams make the Super Bowl

1:03:43.400 --> 1:03:47.280
<v Speaker 2>and are playing the Chiefs, I will be putting something

1:03:47.440 --> 1:03:51.120
<v Speaker 2>bet in on the Chiefs. Yeah, the and you know

1:03:51.440 --> 1:03:53.720
<v Speaker 2>the and I'll have it to where I can't lose.

1:03:53.800 --> 1:03:56.919
<v Speaker 2>That's not really a hedge as much as me going

1:03:57.000 --> 1:03:59.400
<v Speaker 2>with what I want. But if it's like Rams bills,

1:04:00.160 --> 1:04:02.240
<v Speaker 2>I won't cash out. I won't bet the bills. I'll

1:04:02.320 --> 1:04:05.600
<v Speaker 2>just let it right, all right, quick break right back?

1:04:05.760 --> 1:04:14.320
<v Speaker 2>Answer some listener questions. What's right all right, welcome back

1:04:14.400 --> 1:04:16.600
<v Speaker 2>in What's right with Nick? Right DEMONSI, let's answer some

1:04:16.720 --> 1:04:17.880
<v Speaker 2>listener questions quickly.

1:04:18.640 --> 1:04:21.600
<v Speaker 3>Uh forday, how could you explain the Jets going for

1:04:21.680 --> 1:04:24.040
<v Speaker 3>the touchdown instead of a game winning field goal?

1:04:25.240 --> 1:04:28.120
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so I it's because the Jet I saw other

1:04:28.160 --> 1:04:31.360
<v Speaker 2>people asking about this. This was actually not a mistake.

1:04:31.440 --> 1:04:33.640
<v Speaker 2>It was kind of borderline, but it wasn't a mistake.

1:04:35.120 --> 1:04:39.240
<v Speaker 2>It's because the Jags had timeouts. So the Jets get

1:04:39.920 --> 1:04:43.240
<v Speaker 2>they have first in goal from the one with sixty

1:04:43.360 --> 1:04:48.600
<v Speaker 2>eight seconds left, and the Jags have two timeouts. So

1:04:48.760 --> 1:04:51.880
<v Speaker 2>let's just say you do what today is asking you do.

1:04:52.360 --> 1:04:56.960
<v Speaker 2>You kneel down? Okay, timeout you too. You went from

1:04:57.000 --> 1:04:59.680
<v Speaker 2>a minute eight to a minute five. Give them three

1:04:59.720 --> 1:05:01.800
<v Speaker 2>second for a kneel. That one's a long time. You

1:05:01.920 --> 1:05:05.640
<v Speaker 2>kneel down again. Time out, first second down gone. Now

1:05:05.680 --> 1:05:09.960
<v Speaker 2>there's a minute too. Third down, you're kneeling again. Okay.

1:05:11.280 --> 1:05:17.360
<v Speaker 2>Clock runs now, twenty two seconds left. Kick your field goal.

1:05:17.800 --> 1:05:23.200
<v Speaker 2>Kicking off with like eighteen seconds left up three. It's

1:05:23.280 --> 1:05:27.560
<v Speaker 2>not a it's not a great chance you lose, but

1:05:28.360 --> 1:05:30.800
<v Speaker 2>you have to execute the field goal, and you have

1:05:30.880 --> 1:05:34.040
<v Speaker 2>to keep them out of field goal range. If the

1:05:34.200 --> 1:05:38.040
<v Speaker 2>Jags had one or zero timeouts, then obviously you kneel

1:05:38.440 --> 1:05:42.240
<v Speaker 2>and then kick the field goal's time expires. Because they didn't,

1:05:43.040 --> 1:05:46.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm fine with the Jets doing what they did. What

1:05:46.880 --> 1:05:53.080
<v Speaker 2>you're probably supposed to do there, like the maximum value

1:05:53.280 --> 1:06:00.120
<v Speaker 2>proposition there is, if I'm being honest, is kneel once, Yes,

1:06:01.760 --> 1:06:06.000
<v Speaker 2>to make them burn a timeout, then then run the ball,

1:06:07.240 --> 1:06:10.000
<v Speaker 2>and if you get stopped, make them burn another timeout,

1:06:10.160 --> 1:06:12.880
<v Speaker 2>then run it again. And if you get stopped, then

1:06:12.920 --> 1:06:15.520
<v Speaker 2>you're kicking the field goal with twenty seconds. Anyway, that's

1:06:15.800 --> 1:06:20.520
<v Speaker 2>probably the absolute peak. But that what they did was

1:06:20.600 --> 1:06:22.720
<v Speaker 2>not bad. They scored a touchdown immediately and then of

1:06:22.800 --> 1:06:24.000
<v Speaker 2>course Mac Jones threw a pick.

1:06:24.040 --> 1:06:27.439
<v Speaker 3>All right next oohman one two three. If you changed

1:06:27.480 --> 1:06:30.040
<v Speaker 3>nothing else but have the Bills Ravens game this weekend

1:06:30.080 --> 1:06:32.640
<v Speaker 3>instead of September, is Lamar MVP.

1:06:33.960 --> 1:06:39.040
<v Speaker 2>That's such a great question that if Lamar, if they

1:06:39.240 --> 1:06:43.800
<v Speaker 2>just beat the Bills this weekend instead of in September, Yeah,

1:06:44.040 --> 1:06:45.000
<v Speaker 2>how that changes things?

1:06:45.920 --> 1:06:49.920
<v Speaker 3>Nine completion game that he had that was against Houston.

1:06:50.680 --> 1:06:51.360
<v Speaker 3>That was Houston.

1:06:51.520 --> 1:06:54.320
<v Speaker 2>Next week he got blown out by Buffalo by the

1:06:54.400 --> 1:06:57.240
<v Speaker 2>Ravens and then did that against Houston. That's the old

1:06:57.360 --> 1:07:00.640
<v Speaker 2>order of operations thing that really impacts the MVP race.

1:07:00.760 --> 1:07:05.120
<v Speaker 3>All right, next, yep, Eric, Hey, Nick, love the show.

1:07:05.560 --> 1:07:07.840
<v Speaker 3>I'm an NBA fan first, and I feel your NBA

1:07:07.960 --> 1:07:11.080
<v Speaker 3>coverage has decreased. Has the way him mount has, the

1:07:11.120 --> 1:07:14.040
<v Speaker 3>way slash him out you consume the NBA, especially during

1:07:14.120 --> 1:07:15.800
<v Speaker 3>NFL changed in the last few years.

1:07:16.720 --> 1:07:19.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean this year in particular, I'm consuming way

1:07:19.520 --> 1:07:23.400
<v Speaker 2>less during the NFL. I don't think the games are

1:07:23.480 --> 1:07:26.160
<v Speaker 2>quite as fun to watch. I don't the and listen,

1:07:26.200 --> 1:07:29.880
<v Speaker 2>I still love the league and we'll cover it extensively

1:07:30.000 --> 1:07:32.480
<v Speaker 2>post football. But yes, the answer to that is, yeah,

1:07:32.480 --> 1:07:37.120
<v Speaker 2>it has. Let's go to WX WX.

1:07:37.520 --> 1:07:39.640
<v Speaker 3>What does Sirianni have to do for you to acknowledge

1:07:39.720 --> 1:07:41.760
<v Speaker 3>him as a good coach? All he does is win

1:07:42.000 --> 1:07:44.600
<v Speaker 3>far beyond what you expect him to. At some point

1:07:44.720 --> 1:07:46.080
<v Speaker 3>you have to give him. You have to give this

1:07:46.160 --> 1:07:46.480
<v Speaker 3>one up.

1:07:47.560 --> 1:07:50.880
<v Speaker 2>Okay, listen, those are great points and I and I've

1:07:50.920 --> 1:07:53.520
<v Speaker 2>always said wins are a coaching stat The counterpoint to

1:07:53.640 --> 1:07:57.320
<v Speaker 2>that is the Eagles thought of replacing him for Bill

1:07:57.400 --> 1:08:01.880
<v Speaker 2>Belichick this offseason. Three weeks or a month into the year.

1:08:02.080 --> 1:08:05.919
<v Speaker 2>He's screaming at his own fans. Uh when they beat

1:08:06.000 --> 1:08:09.360
<v Speaker 2>the Browns, and even this week there was like this

1:08:09.680 --> 1:08:13.400
<v Speaker 2>nonsense on the sidelines, like they do win and maybe

1:08:13.440 --> 1:08:15.440
<v Speaker 2>he is better than I give him credit for. I

1:08:15.560 --> 1:08:18.800
<v Speaker 2>also don't know exactly what he does. Kellen Moore calls

1:08:18.840 --> 1:08:21.719
<v Speaker 2>the offense. Vic Fangio calls the defense. Seems like AJ

1:08:21.880 --> 1:08:24.080
<v Speaker 2>Brown dictates whether or not they're passing the ball a

1:08:24.120 --> 1:08:27.760
<v Speaker 2>lot or not. He's not even allowed to discipline Jail

1:08:27.840 --> 1:08:30.400
<v Speaker 2>and Carter the position coach won't allow it. I mean,

1:08:30.439 --> 1:08:33.240
<v Speaker 2>it's a weird spot. All right, fun show, good job,

1:08:33.640 --> 1:08:35.759
<v Speaker 2>see you guys on Thursday. I gotta go do Colin

1:08:35.840 --> 1:08:37.680
