1
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:13,160
Speaker 1: The Lions are officially playoff bound again, but he could

2
00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:16,360
Speaker 1: have predicted that part back in like August. The real

3
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:20,759
Speaker 1: question remains, what if anything stands between Detroit and a

4
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:24,279
Speaker 1: trip to Super Bowl fifty nine. Our guy Baldy's gonna

5
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 1: be here to break down the biggest threats in the NFC.

6
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:29,160
Speaker 2: It's Week fourteen.

7
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,519
Speaker 1: Your fantasy team has ridden the heroics of Lamar Jackson

8
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:35,559
Speaker 1: or Jayden Daniels all season, and now with your playoff

9
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,920
Speaker 1: hopes on the line, welcome to buy Mgeddon.

10
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 2: Never fear.

11
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 1: Adam Rank is here to save your fantasy season again.

12
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 1: There's always a little drama in the AFC North every game,

13
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 1: sometimes literally.

14
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:50,120
Speaker 2: As the game is ending.

15
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 1: George Pickens and Greg Newsom aren't done brawling either. Just

16
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 1: a little less snow and a lot more sass.

17
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 2: Welcome inside. With the inside.

18
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 1: There's alongside Ian Rappaport and Mike Garafalo, I am Tom

19
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 1: Pelisserro Larry Ogin Jobi another member of the Steelers is

20
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: going to be joining us, and just a little bit

21
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,119
Speaker 1: might have some thoughts on that. Right now, guys, we've

22
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 1: got three spots in the playoffs field. There are still

23
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:22,919
Speaker 1: twenty five teams alive for the other eleven with five

24
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 1: weeks to go, and we've got some injuries that are

25
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,839
Speaker 1: impacting some of those teams still in the chase.

26
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 2: Let's start out with the Eagles.

27
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: Who's tight end Dallas Goddard suffered that knee injury last week.

28
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 2: No surprise ruled out.

29
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,680
Speaker 1: No decision yet on whether or not potentially he could

30
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: land on short term i R, though they do not

31
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 1: believe that this is something that's season ending. Some surprises

32
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 1: popping up on the list. Kenneth Walker the third ankling

33
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 1: calf injuries. He's listed his questionable before a big game

34
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 1: against Arizona. The Bills have been kind of limping along

35
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 1: all season. Dalton Kinka, Keon Coleman listed as questionable. Blik

36
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: Neighbors popping up, had a hip flexer in practice today,

37
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: the he injured. He's questionable, and so he is the

38
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: aforementioned George Pickens. We'll have more on him momentarily, but

39
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,639
Speaker 1: first let's talk about that.

40
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 2: Game last night.

41
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 1: Dan Campbell a chance to get his Lions into the

42
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:15,519
Speaker 1: playoffs again doing what Dan Campbell does, going for it

43
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 1: on fourth downs and going for it and going for

44
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 1: it and going for it. Again all the way till here, guys,

45
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 1: there's forty three seconds left. Everyone in the world is thinking,

46
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 1: you're just gonna kick the field goal and get a sound.

47
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 1: They step on Jared Goff. Maybe not the greatest four work,

48
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,519
Speaker 1: but they step on Jared Goff. He gets the handoff off,

49
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: they converted Jake bates On once again to kick the

50
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 1: field goal as time expires. That's how they knock off

51
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 1: the Packers once again. That's how the Lions seal another

52
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 1: return trip to.

53
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 2: The NFL playoffs.

54
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 1: Still got some work to do to wrap up the

55
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: NFC North Division title because the Vikings are sitting there

56
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 1: still only with two losses and the loss Colum Packers

57
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 1: nine and four. They're going to get in as a

58
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 1: wild card team. But for the Lions, the first NFC

59
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 1: team to clinch their spot.

60
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,239
Speaker 2: What was your biggest takeaway from that game last night?

61
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,920
Speaker 3: My biggest takeaway was those fourth downs. And you know,

62
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 3: there's a lot of reasons I think we all really

63
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 3: like and appreciate Dan Campbell, and it's about more than

64
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 3: just his postgame locker room sessions, which are awesome, whether

65
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:24,359
Speaker 3: or not a guy's yaking in the.

66
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:24,799
Speaker 4: Garbage or not.

67
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 3: They're still excellent. But one of the coolest things about

68
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 3: Dan Campbell, guys, is he has normalized going for it

69
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 3: on fourth down even when people think you're crazy, even

70
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 3: in your own territory, even when.

71
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 2: You don't get it.

72
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 3: And he has thrived using this. I mean, no one

73
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 3: has gone for more and fourth down than Dan Campbell

74
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 3: since who was hired. He's been successful on on.

75
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 4: When was it Thursday night? There you go Thursday night?

76
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 2: Four or five?

77
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 4: On fourth down?

78
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 3: Jared Goff has over one hundred passer rating on fourth

79
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 3: downs like they are right, whatever it was. You know,

80
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 3: these games are all during the days anyway, I think

81
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 3: Jared gov is a better put back on fourth down

82
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 3: when he's not getting stepped on, you know. I think

83
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 3: what Dan Campbell has done is make it okay to

84
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 3: be aggressive and go for things even if the percentages

85
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 3: aren't exactly what you think, which to me opens up

86
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 3: the entire playbook for the entire world of coaches to

87
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 3: do whatever they think is best to the team, not

88
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 3: caring about criticism.

89
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,039
Speaker 2: And I love it so much and.

90
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 3: The fact that he is thriving doing it makes it

91
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 3: even better.

92
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 2: Got set.

93
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 1: We got several text messages last night after the one

94
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: failed fourth down from their own thirty two yard line,

95
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 1: with people saying Dan Campbell's an idiot, those people then

96
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 1: taking it back a little bit later. Listen, there's a

97
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: lot of outcome based analysis in all of this, but

98
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 1: don't overlook the fact the Lions are good at this.

99
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: They convert over half of their fourth downs and by

100
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 1: playing four down football, it allows them to play this

101
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 1: really aggressive style. It's baked into their DNA. Whether you

102
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 1: like it or not, Dan Campbell is going to continue

103
00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: to do it. That's why the Lions right now sitting

104
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: in the number one slot in the NFC playoff picture.

105
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,039
Speaker 1: You see the Vikings and the Packers, two other teams

106
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 1: in the same division. Still those top two wild card spots.

107
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: We're going to have a Vikings Falcons game on Sunday

108
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 1: in Minnesota, potential playoff preview. There what else jokes out

109
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,279
Speaker 1: at you, Mike about the NFC playoff picture as it stands?

110
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 2: Now.

111
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 5: Look, I'll be covering the Eagles on Sunday, and I'm

112
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,799
Speaker 5: just watching that game last night. I'm thinking about Detroit

113
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 5: being at home and how I think that's going to

114
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 5: be a huge advantage for them to be able to

115
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 5: play every single playoff game at home. Look if the

116
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 5: Eagles they've got two losses. If the Eagles win their

117
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 5: next two games Sunday in the following week and the

118
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 5: Lions lose to the Bills, which could conceivably happen, the

119
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:45,039
Speaker 5: Lions still have that conference tiebreaker, So Detroit, the Eagles

120
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 5: are going to need a conference loss here to get

121
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 5: into the first overall seed right here. So I think

122
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,039
Speaker 5: Detroit right now is looking at this. I don't know

123
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 5: what the percentages would be, but i'd say overwhelming favorite

124
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 5: now to be the number one seed. Think about having

125
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 5: to go into Ford Field two. Team's going to have

126
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 5: to do it. We saw what the atmosphere was like

127
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 5: last year when they hosted the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. It

128
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 5: was electric in that place, and that's gonna be a

129
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 5: tough place for somebody to go in and win the

130
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 5: NFC championship game. Think about that crowd knowing they'd be

131
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,600
Speaker 5: only sixty minutes away from a Super Bowl. I think

132
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 5: last night's win was absolutely.

133
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 2: Enormous for Detroit.

134
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,919
Speaker 1: I don't want to face the Lions anywhere right now,

135
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 1: even if their entire front seven is hurt, which right

136
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,359
Speaker 1: now that's basically true. They're playing with a bunch of

137
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,719
Speaker 1: guys that they picked up off the street, but facing

138
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 1: them in Detroit. Mike, you are absolutely right. I would

139
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 1: not want to be walking into that building. I would

140
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 1: like to be a fly on the wall for a

141
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 1: Steelers Brown's rematch on Sunday for a lot of different reasons,

142
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: including the fact that the last time we saw these

143
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 1: teams on the field, literally the.

144
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 2: Last time we saw this.

145
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 1: In the background, it's WrestleMania with George Pickens and Greg

146
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 1: Newsom while the final Hail Mary is literally still in

147
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:03,280
Speaker 1: the air. George Pickens was asked today if maybe, you know,

148
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: maybe they'd talk it out before the game.

149
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 6: Today, before the game. I mean, I don't even know

150
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 6: who that means. He's trash tard, like I first.

151
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 7: Game, you get the nay, yeah, I mean it's it's

152
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 7: pretty easy, man.

153
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 2: We say it in our room.

154
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 7: Smart tough, a koind of a resilient team, and I'm

155
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 7: all about the team.

156
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 2: Obviously.

157
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 7: He's a guy that cares more or so about himself,

158
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 7: and you could see that in the penalties that he causes.

159
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 7: And you know, for me, my job is to try

160
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 7: to do whatever I can help the team win. So

161
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 7: there's never gonna be no one on one battle for me.

162
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 7: My battles to try to help my team. Just nah,

163
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 7: that's a that's a like I said, he does that

164
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 7: type of stuff all the time. There will never be

165
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 7: a man that ever could fuel me in any type

166
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 7: of way.

167
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: So definitely not slipping that in as the one more question,

168
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 1: by the way to George Pickens a bold move.

169
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 2: There no follow ups. That's enough.

170
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 1: Doesn't know who Greg Newsom is except Newsom says, yeah

171
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: he does because one time he DMed me.

172
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 2: He's got it right there.

173
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 1: Back in twenty nineteen, they were both in college saying

174
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 1: live this is fun Ian in a game that otherwise

175
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 1: has very few implications, at least on the brown side

176
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 1: of things.

177
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 2: Steel are still trying to wrap up the.

178
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 1: AFC North, but a little bit of spice, especially involving

179
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: a guy in George Pickens who is not shy about

180
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:22,679
Speaker 1: taking on the smoke.

181
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 3: No, I think George Pickens is here for all of

182
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 3: it and creates a lot of it. And you know,

183
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 3: I get a couple thoughts on this. First of all,

184
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 3: understand that everybody keeps receipts. Now, it's kind of the thing, right,

185
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 3: So if you've done something bad or good, sometimes bad

186
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 3: but maybe good, people are going to have receipts.

187
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 4: It is going to be out there.

188
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,319
Speaker 3: So understand before you say something like, I don't know

189
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 3: what that dude is like. He might have slid in

190
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 3: the DMS and you probably do know who he is,

191
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 3: So just be aware of that, just for future reference,

192
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 3: for all future trash targets you're going to pull that

193
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,719
Speaker 3: I don't even know who this guy is. The other

194
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 3: thing is the AFC North is the best and we're

195
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,319
Speaker 3: learning this and I think the Hard Knock episode has

196
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 3: at least the one we've seen, has been awesome. You know,

197
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 3: these are some of the most fun games to watch,

198
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:10,200
Speaker 3: and it's hard to describe what the intensity is like

199
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 3: for someone who's not used to seeing it, right, because

200
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,880
Speaker 3: it really does, to me at least, feel like playoff football,

201
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,960
Speaker 3: and some of these feelings, some of these rivalries are

202
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 3: very real, and so to see these two guys kind

203
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 3: of bring it to life in this very petty, you know,

204
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 3: trash talking situation.

205
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 4: I'm here for all of that.

206
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 3: I love the petty, embrace the petty, and God forbid,

207
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 3: God forbid George Pickens catches the touchdown over Greg Newsom,

208
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,440
Speaker 3: or Newsom catches the ball over Pickens, it takes to

209
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 3: the crib.

210
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 4: I'm just I'm just here for all of that.

211
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 8: Just bring it all to me.

212
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 5: We had two denials in the AFC North this week,

213
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 5: Joe Burrow denying that he had anything to do with

214
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 5: purchasing a batmobile despite the fact that he's on camera

215
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 5: and on.

216
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 2: Mike saying that he did.

217
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 5: And then George Pickens saying, I have no idea who

218
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 5: that guy is that I just fought with just a

219
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 5: couple of weeks ago. Here's what I want to see,

220
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 5: and through the magic of hard knocks we can see it.

221
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 5: I want to see how Mike Tomlin handles George Pickens,

222
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,439
Speaker 5: knowing that this is out there and making sure.

223
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 2: That his head is in the game.

224
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 5: We saw him tell Pickens the other day after that

225
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,559
Speaker 5: interception early on where he thought he should have gotten

226
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:17,720
Speaker 5: a flag, and yes he should have.

227
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 2: I need you in the game. That's not going to

228
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,560
Speaker 2: decide the game. Stay with me, Stay with me.

229
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 5: Mike Tomlin has realized that George Pickens needs to be

230
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 5: handled a little bit differently than some other players. So

231
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 5: you know, all week long, he's going to be trying

232
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 5: his best to make sure that his.

233
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 2: Head is in the game.

234
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,320
Speaker 5: And then let's see what happens on game day as well,

235
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 5: because if the extra curriculars start early on, it's one

236
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 5: thing for it to happen after a failed here game

237
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 5: over right, that's one thing. It's another thing that happened

238
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 5: early in the game, in the middle of the game,

239
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 5: at a clutch point in the game. I can't wait

240
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 5: to see how Tomlin handles this, seeing as how he

241
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 5: handled his emotions so well the other day.

242
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 1: Here's one more thing I know from twenty plus years

243
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: covering the NFL, there are some players who don't know

244
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,959
Speaker 1: the other player's name. I'm not saying that's the case here,

245
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 1: but it's entirely possible. George Pikett, if you said number zero,

246
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 1: might have had a better chance than Greg Newsom, because

247
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 1: the look on his face was very much like I've

248
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 1: never heard that name of my life. If not, George,

249
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 1: about you fantastic acting in the moment. Coming back to

250
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 1: this on the Insiders, let's talk about the forty nine

251
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 1: ers who have an uphill battle to be able to

252
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:26,959
Speaker 1: get into the playoffs here, but any talk about trading

253
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan, firing Kyle Shanahan.

254
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 2: John Lynch has a reaction to it. Let's just put

255
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:33,199
Speaker 2: it that way.

256
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 1: We've also got another member of the Steelers, Larry Ogan

257
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 1: Joby on the show, Walter Payton Man of the Year

258
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 1: nominee and a core part of a Pittsburgh defense. That's

259
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 1: a big reason they are on top right now in

260
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 1: the AFC North.

261
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 2: So how do they finish it off? We'll ask Larry

262
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:50,920

Speaker 3: just one second. I want to start with with Larry here,

294
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 3: who you know. I think Cam really explained it exceptionally well.

295
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,200
Speaker 3: The kind of work that you do with the First

296

Speaker 3: and Many Foundation and in so many other ways in

297
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 3: Pittsburgh you talked about shining the light and others. Let's

298
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 3: shine the light on you for a second if you were,

299
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 3: if you were to become the first Nigerian born Walter

300
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 3: Payton Award winner, what would.

301
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 4: That mean to you?

302
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 8: I mean everything. I think it's a humbling experience.

303
00:13:56,360 --> 00:14:00,079
Speaker 10: Even be nominated, oh man, you know the falling cam's footsteps.

304
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 10: But being able to impact lives and given a way

305
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 10: that it's so big is very important. And you know,

306
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,960
Speaker 10: coming from an immigrant family, I think that a lot

307
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 10: of times you don't understand your impact. And me being

308
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 10: introduced to football and just everything that football has done

309
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 10: for me in my life. It's like it'd feel wrong

310
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 10: for me not to be able to get back in

311
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 10: because of that.

312
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 8: I have a heart to give my parents.

313
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 10: You know, growing up we didn't have a lot, but

314
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 10: they always you know, tried to give out of nothing

315
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 10: and that kind of followed me through the league and

316
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:32,880
Speaker 10: being able to get back and get back in Big

317
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 10: veg has always been important to me.

318
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 8: So the opportunity win would be amazing.

319
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 10: But just being nominated and you know, shining that light

320
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 10: and being a beacon for people and allowing them to

321
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 10: understand that they have an opportunity to do these things

322
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 10: that they want to do.

323
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 8: I think is super important.

324
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 6: Larie.

325
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,680
Speaker 11: I was in Las Vegas last year in saal cam

326
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 11: when he won the award, and you know, it's very hummy.

327
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 11: I think it's the biggest award in the NFL. I

328
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 11: mean there was accolades for play on the field man,

329
00:14:58,240 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 11: you know, player of your.

330
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 6: Lot sho, but I think this this is the ward.

331
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 11: Tell me about your foundation line because it's a big

332
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,520
Speaker 11: part of why you've been nominated here and what you're

333
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 11: trying to do right now.

334
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 10: Yeah, so first of many started probably my I want

335
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 10: to say my second or third year and really being

336
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 10: a first generation Nigeria. My parents immigrated from Nigeria back

337
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 10: in I want to say, nineteen eighty nine. My dad

338
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 10: got here nineteen ninety three, my mom got here. I

339
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 10: was born in ninety four, so you know, we moved

340
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 10: to Greensboro, North Carolina, where I was raised. And a

341
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 10: lot of times when you're starting out and it's a

342
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 10: different environment because your parents were raised in Nigeria, but

343
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 10: you know you're being raised in the States. So sometimes

344
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 10: it's kind of a disconnect and when you're growing up,

345
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 10: and I felt like, you know, if I do make

346
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 10: it to a place where I can, you know, be

347
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,280
Speaker 10: a life for people. I want to start with mentorship,

348
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 10: you know, being able to mentor young kids and have

349
00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:51,880
Speaker 10: them understand that, like there's somebody in their position as

350
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 10: well that understands what they've been through.

351
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 8: You know, especially young immigrant kids. We need a little mentorship,

352
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 8: we need a little guidance.

353
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 10: And for me, it's you know, finding those kids, pinpointing them,

354
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 10: especially at a young age, and you know, kind of

355
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 10: guiding them a love of leading them alone through you know,

356
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 10: their journey, and I think that's super important.

357
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 3: There's plenty to talk about with the Steelers, and for

358
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,640
Speaker 3: sure we will get to that. I heard an interesting

359
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 3: story about you though, involving you your parents when you

360
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,440
Speaker 3: were younger. From what I was told, you're kind of

361
00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 3: late to football, surely much later than these seven or

362
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 3: eight year olds who play. You know a lot of

363
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 3: times when people start tell us, for those who have

364
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 3: not heard, how you ended up playing football and what

365
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 3: role your parents had in that.

366
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 8: So it was kind of ironic.

367
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 10: I was pretty I was pretty obese kid when I

368
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 10: was growing up, so I was about three hundred and

369
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 10: fifty pounds when I first started playing football. Actually, before

370
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 10: that real reason why I started playing football school, my

371
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 10: mom took away at my xbox. She was kind of

372
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 10: annoyed too much. They're like, man, you're gonna kill yourself.

373
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 10: You don't if you don't kind of change your life.

374
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 10: So they met a coach with my dad was at

375
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 10: the park with my sister. His name was Robert Mitchell,

376
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,400
Speaker 10: and he told my dad, I think I can help

377
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 10: your son.

378
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,159
Speaker 8: So one day he picked me up. He took me

379
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 8: to work out.

380
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,359
Speaker 10: I was kind of annoyed because I wasn't used to

381
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,120
Speaker 10: waking up early and going to workout. That wasn't really

382
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 10: mean because I was off all night playing video games

383
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,679
Speaker 10: and whatnot. And one day we were driving past the

384
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 10: high school and he was like, you're gonna play football.

385
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 10: I'm like, no, I'm not. He's like, yes you are.

386
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 10: I'm like no, i'm not. He's like, yes you are.

387
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,719
Speaker 10: We got an argument in the car. Off me got

388
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 10: to permissions tip. He took it to my mom. My

389
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,160
Speaker 10: mom signed it. I was on the football field that Saturday.

390
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,160
Speaker 10: You know, I couldn't make it through the first workouts,

391
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 10: you know, they were doing sprints. I was running, couldn't finish.

392
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 10: Coaches came up to me the next day the or like, Larry,

393
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:44,760
Speaker 10: we'll make sure you're still here. I'm like, yeah, I'm

394
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 10: still here, but in my head, I'm like only because

395
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 10: I have to be.

396
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 8: But I ended up.

397
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,920
Speaker 10: Going from three point fifty summer of my sophomore year

398
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,120
Speaker 10: to two forty seven the summer of my junior year.

399
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 10: So I ended up losing one hundred pounds in the year,

400
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,959
Speaker 10: and I kind of asked my coach, you know what

401
00:17:59,040 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 10: I needed to do.

402
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 8: And I think the turning point for me was they

403
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:04,359
Speaker 8: gave the award for most.

404
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:07,159
Speaker 10: Improved JV Player and I won, and that was like

405
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 10: the first time my life felt like I earned something

406
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 10: that I really worked for and it kind of just

407
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 10: set the trajectory. So I asked my coach, you know

408
00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 10: what I needed to do. Said, you had to get faster,

409
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:16,639
Speaker 10: you had to get stronger, and you had to perfect

410
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 10: your technique. So you know, every day after practice, you know,

411
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 10: grinding and running and losing all good way you end

412
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,919
Speaker 10: up going into your junior year and make All Conference senior,

413
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 10: your All Conference senior, but all that kind of cool

414
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,399
Speaker 10: stuff and then you get five starship offers it with

415
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:33,600
Speaker 10: Charlotte Firman, Howard, prest Heert and Kataba and I took

416
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 10: won official Visit wasn't on any of the Max preps

417
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 10: or nothing like that. Just took wonderficial visits to Charlotte,

418
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,120
Speaker 10: fell in love with it, and I became the first

419
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 10: player ever drafted from the university. And you know a

420
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 10: lot more detail, but it was, like I said, it's

421
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,640
Speaker 10: been a tremendous blessing. Like football has done so much

422
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 10: for me. It's taken me so many different places. And

423
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:54,959
Speaker 10: I always tell people's a blessing to be a blessing.

424
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,359
Speaker 10: And I don't take this position. I'm in for granted.

425
00:18:57,960 --> 00:18:59,919
Speaker 10: And all I want to do is, you know, he

426
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,159
Speaker 10: and be life brothers and let them know that they

427
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 10: can do it too.

428
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 6: Lara.

429
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 11: I remember when you were a young buck coming out

430
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:08,120
Speaker 11: of Charlotte. I remember there was a brand new program

431
00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 11: that you just mentioned about, and you went to Cleveland

432
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 11: drafted the third round by Cleveland. So you just happen

433
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 11: to play Cleveland again this week. And there's you know,

434
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:20,160
Speaker 11: there's guys over there like Joel Antonio that you were there.

435
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 11: He like when you play against him or Wyatt Teller,

436
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 11: guys that you were in the locker room with every

437
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 11: day for a couple of years. Like, is anything said

438
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 11: out there on the field this weekend between you?

439
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 6: I know you're the respectors there, but.

440
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,879
Speaker 10: Yeah, we always, you know, dap each other like David

441
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 10: always walk over, you know, in like a dead ball

442
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:40,440
Speaker 10: thousand like that, and we'll dap each other up and

443
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 10: all that kind of stuff.

444
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 8: But you know, so there's always a relationship.

445
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 10: You know, he spent a lot of years with those guys,

446
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:48,400
Speaker 10: and you know, you build memories. And now you guys

447
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 10: are going against each other. I think that's just the

448
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 10: nature of the business. And you do it with a

449
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,359
Speaker 10: smile on your face, and you know, you know, excity

450
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,119
Speaker 10: for another opportunity, and that's the game of football, and

451
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 10: this is what it is.

452
00:19:58,560 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 4: Love it, Larry.

453
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,280
Speaker 3: You play the game of football extremely well and obviously

454
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:05,640
Speaker 3: off the field, it has been extremely cool to learn

455
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,159
Speaker 3: about and listen to you talk about everything you do.

456
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 3: Congratulations on being a Walter Payton Award nominee and obviously

457
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 3: good luck on Sunday against your old team.

458
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:17,760
Speaker 8: Big Now Works.

459
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 3: Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills have been certainly one

460
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,919
Speaker 3: of the best stories in the NFL, one of the

461
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,280
Speaker 3: best teams in the NFL. Big one coming up on

462
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 3: Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams.

463
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:30,919
Speaker 2: What do they have cooked up for us?

464
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 3: Some sort of razzle dazzle flee ficker Josh Allen throwing

465
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 3: the ball to himself and catching it. We'll get into

466
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:38,639
Speaker 3: it coming up next on the Insiders.

467
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,960
Speaker 1: I still think Josh Allen did snow angels after the game,

468
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 1: so was icing down that funny bone after it got hit.

469
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 1: That thing hurts. The Bills already have clinched the AFCE East.

470
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:51,320
Speaker 1: The Chiefs are in as well. Take a look at

471
00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 1: the rest of the AFC playoff picture, which seems relatively clear,

472
00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 1: though we still got five Sundays left, four things to change.

473
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Insiders. Tom Pellicero joined out there

474
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:08,920
Speaker 1: in Los Angeles by Jeffrey Chidia as well as Bridget Condon,

475
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,760
Speaker 1: Jeffrey Rams Bills coming up this week. Ram's still in

476
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:16,400
Speaker 1: it in a wide open NFC West. Obviously you got

477
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,800
Speaker 1: deal with Josh Allen, But where does it start for

478
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 1: this LA defense.

479
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:20,600
Speaker 6: Well, I'll tell you what time.

480
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,120
Speaker 12: I love how they showed so many quarterback highlights when

481
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 12: they were showing all those Buffalo plays because their run

482
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 12: game is a big part of what they're doing here.

483
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 12: Bridget it starts with James Cook and it starts with

484
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 12: Ray Davis. Those guys are a big part of this offense.

485
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,280
Speaker 12: In fact, Josh Allen said, one reason he's not running

486
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,680
Speaker 12: as much this season, He's on pace for a second

487
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,440
Speaker 12: lowest rushing yards in his career, is because these guys

488
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,480
Speaker 12: are getting it done. He wants them to eat, he

489
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 12: wants them to have more opportunities. And Joe Brady, their

490
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,600
Speaker 12: offensive coinator, echoed that thought because he looked at this

491
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,880
Speaker 12: offense as a big trust thing, a big chemistry thing.

492
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:53,199
Speaker 12: These guys all know they can make plays, and that

493
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:55,440
Speaker 12: run game is what's allowing Josh Allen to be more

494
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,479
Speaker 12: comfortable and more mature this season.

495
00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:59,359
Speaker 13: You talk about that run game for the Bills, but

496
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,439
Speaker 13: it's just as important, maybe even more important for the Rams.

497
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,119
Speaker 13: On Sunday when they face the Bills. I want to

498
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,160
Speaker 13: put in perspective what that means for their big two

499
00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 13: losses that they've had recently. That Eagles game the Dolphins game.

500
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 13: They rush for under one hundred yards. Their last four

501
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 13: games that they won, they rush for more than one

502
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 13: hundred yards. I talked to Kyron Williams this week on

503
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 13: the phone, and he just had a great mindset. He said,

504
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 13: we have to be able to score early in this game.

505
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 13: He said, we can't abandon the run game. That's when

506
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 13: things change, and that's when things start to go downhill.

507
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,719
Speaker 13: Of course, if they get, you know, behind early, they

508
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,400
Speaker 13: abandon the run game, have to rely on Matthew Stafford,

509
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,399
Speaker 13: which isn't a bad thing either. Of course, he's an

510
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 13: incredible passer, but when they have that run game, it

511
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 13: makes them a tough team to stop. I also asked

512
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,840
Speaker 13: him about going up against the Bills and James cook.

513
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,399
Speaker 13: Of course he won't be playing defense, but you know,

514
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:50,680
Speaker 13: going as a running back against a running back. He said,

515
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,760
Speaker 13: whenever I play good running backs, it's always like a

516
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,400
Speaker 13: hidden competition for him in his mind. And I asked him,

517
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:58,160
Speaker 13: you know, you guys both came out of that twenty

518
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 13: twenty two draft class or you friends to your relationship

519
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 13: with him, and all he said to me was, it's

520
00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 13: somebody that went before me.

521
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:05,360
Speaker 2: In the draft.

522
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:09,120
Speaker 13: James Cooks was James cook was one hundred and one

523
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 13: picks above Kyron Williams. He definitely remembers that and he's like, Yeah,

524
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 13: maybe people didn't believe in me in twenty twenty two,

525
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,359
Speaker 13: but I know who I am now and I have

526
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:18,639
Speaker 13: the stage to show them.

527
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 2: Been a long time since the Rams beat the Bills

528
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:22,920
Speaker 2: at home.

529
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 1: According to what it says right here, nineteen eighty three

530
00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:26,600
Speaker 1: at Anaheim Stadium.

531
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 2: That could be completely made up.

532
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,200
Speaker 1: It sounds made up, but I'm gonna believe it because

533
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:31,120
Speaker 1: it's on the page here.

534
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 2: Bill's Mafia Bridget.

535
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 1: They travel really well, and there's there's a familiarity between these.

536
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 2: Teams as well.

537
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 13: Yeah, I think we all were at that game, right,

538
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 13: we were all alive then, nineteen eighty three, that's the year.

539
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 13: I remember it just like it was yesterday. No, but

540
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,879
Speaker 13: it's also a homecoming for safety Taylor rat Remember he

541
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 13: was drafted to the Rams in twenty twenty nineteen. He

542
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 13: spent four seasons with them, He won a Super Bowl

543
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 13: with this team, and now he's coming back for the

544
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 13: first time to play the Rams. He did return last

545
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 13: year play the Chargers at Sofi Stadium. I asked him

546
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:04,880
Speaker 13: what it's going to be like, and he said, you.

547
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 14: Know, I'm not really sure what kind of emotions.

548
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,640
Speaker 13: I'm gonna have, but he loves those guys. He spoke

549
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 13: very highly of both Cooper Cup and Matthew Stafford, saying

550
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 13: Cup is a great competitor, he does everything. He's very

551
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 13: detail oriented, called Stafford one of the best arm talents

552
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,800
Speaker 13: to ever grace the field in the NFL, adding they're

553
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 13: going to have their hands full on Sunday, and yes,

554
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 13: they've already clinched a playoff spot, but look, this is

555
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 13: a Bills team that that was just goal number one.

556
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 13: They are dying to get back to the super Bowl.

557
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,919
Speaker 13: The last time that happened nineteen ninety four, three years

558
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:36,680
Speaker 13: before Taylor Rapp was even born.

559
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:39,199
Speaker 12: I'm glad you mentioned Taylor rap because he's going to

560
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,359
Speaker 12: have his hands full that secondary when Buffle's going to

561
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,119
Speaker 12: have their hands full with Pooka Nakua and Cooper Cup.

562
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,399
Speaker 12: Cup talked about that first night game they played a

563
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 12: few years ago, when Buffalo came into LA twenty twenty

564
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 12: two season opener and got railed by the Bills thirty

565
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:53,240
Speaker 12: one to ten.

566
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:55,200
Speaker 8: Cupp said, they're still.

567
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 12: Doing a lot of similar things in buffal but what's

568
00:24:56,720 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 12: different about the secondary is that it's leading the Bills defense.

569
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 12: Now you talk about Taylor Rapp and Damar Hamblin and

570
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:04,640
Speaker 12: Christian Benford and Rasulle Douglas.

571
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:06,120
Speaker 8: These guys are really good tacklers.

572
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 12: They're really good at man coverage. They're also really cheap,

573
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 12: not much investment there, but they're getting a lot of return.

574
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,880
Speaker 12: In fact, so much return that Hey, Coachean McDermott said,

575
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 12: when Michael High came back out of a retirement, Hey,

576
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:17,440
Speaker 12: we're pretty good here, Micha.

577
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 8: Hide and go to practice squad.

578
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:20,480
Speaker 12: The guys who got are playing at a very high level.

579
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 13: Everybody's so excited, too, Tom to have Micah Hyde back

580
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 13: in the locker room. I was talking to Dawson Knox,

581
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:27,159
Speaker 13: obviously a tight end for this team, and at the

582
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,040
Speaker 13: end of our conversation, I said, anything you want to

583
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:30,360
Speaker 13: add He's like, yeah, let's.

584
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,120
Speaker 14: Talk about Michael Hyde being back. I was like, Oh,

585
00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:33,120
Speaker 14: I wasn't going to ask you.

586
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,080
Speaker 13: You obviously play on offense, but just you know, interesting

587
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,879
Speaker 13: to see what having him as an addition back in

588
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:40,960
Speaker 13: that locker room will do for this team on Sunday.

589
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,919
Speaker 1: So much veteran attrition for the Bills in the offseason.

590
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 1: But Michael Hyde very respected in that locker room. Jeffrey Bridgett,

591
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:50,920
Speaker 1: thank you very much. Rams were, by the way, a

592
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:55,400
Speaker 1: playoff team last year. Who knocked him out? You guessed it, guys.

593
00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 15: I'm so freaking proud of him. That's the way to

594
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 15: show up. You talk about pressure, We live in a sure,

595
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,639
Speaker 15: that's what we freaking thrive. You did it again, You

596
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 15: did it again. It doesn't matter who's playing for us,

597
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 15: It don't matter what's going on. You always find a

598
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:13,680
Speaker 15: way to win. That's what champions do. This is not happenstance, man,

599
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:17,240
Speaker 15: This doesn't just happen. This has been in the making. Man,

600
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,240
Speaker 15: this has been in the making. All right, We're all

601
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,920
Speaker 15: supposed to be here together. Man, we're destined for this.

602
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,119
Speaker 15: Just stay the course. All the stats you need as

603
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:27,920

Speaker 2: Hey, Like he said, this just don't just happen.

610
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 6: Boys, we're different again.

611
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 2: I'll say it again.

612
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:49,719
Speaker 6: This group'sing different.

613
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:51,120
Speaker 4: Went I'll do what did they win?

614
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 2: Who put the hand up?

615
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 8: At the end there.

616
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,720
Speaker 5: I urge you after this program is over, because we

617

621
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,399

Speaker 5: bring in Baldy, that is the gentleman that was just laughing.

623
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:13,399
Speaker 5: Bring him back here in a like Kentucky Derby mint

624
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 5: ish suit here looking sharp Friday night.

625
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:18,200
Speaker 2: Hopefully, hopefully you got a.

626
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:22,880
Speaker 5: Holiday party to go to after this one. The Yeah,

627
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,080
Speaker 5: the Lions are going to a party. It's called the playoffs,

628
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 5: and potentially he could be hosting that party.

629
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:29,160
Speaker 2: All the way through.

630
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:33,160
Speaker 5: Uh, Dan Campbell, they've been true to what they said

631
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,520
Speaker 5: they were going to be. And Dan Campbell's fourth down

632
00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 5: decisions aggressive? Has the public split your thoughts on the

633
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:40,440
Speaker 5: fourth downs?

634
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 11: Well, we're just gonna call him Dan, Dan gamble, Dan

635
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 11: gambler like he went forth last night, might get it

636
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 11: paid off. I mean he tried five times last night,

637
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 11: he converted four. I mean two of the fourth down

638
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 11: conversions last night were touchdowns. Remember the little Texas route

639
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 11: to Jamiir Gibbson, like right there, that's it. I mean

640
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,159
Speaker 11: that's a fourth down and two right there, that's a

641
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:04,400
Speaker 11: big difference. He had one, you know, to Tim Patrick

642
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 11: on fourth and three. This one right here, a little

643
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:10,520
Speaker 11: stick route right there on the end zone. I mean

644
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:12,760
Speaker 11: those are touchdowns now. And then you know, at the

645
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 11: end of the game, they gave it to Montgomery, you know,

646
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 11: on fourth and one. They didn't want to give the

647
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,440
Speaker 11: ball back to green Bay. And I think part of it, Mike,

648
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,199
Speaker 11: honestly was he said it in the locker room he

649
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 11: doesn't care who who's playing, because I saw Kwan Alexander

650
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 11: and Jamal Adams, and I saw a bunch of guys

651
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 11: just signed off literally the bus stop this past week

652
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 11: that were out there playing for him, And he kind

653
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 11: of knew that Green Bay's offense they could go the distance,

654
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 11: and so I think he had to stay in front

655
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 11: of it. He wanted to end the game with the

656
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,240
Speaker 11: ball in their hands and not give it back to

657
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:49,760
Speaker 11: Jordan Love. So he made some critical decisions, but ultimately

658
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 11: they converted their fourth downs last night, four or five,

659
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,160
Speaker 11: and it was the difference between you know, winning their

660
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 11: eleven straight and possibly losing to the Packers.

661
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 5: And one of the things that you talk to coaches

662
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,360
Speaker 5: and quarterbacks around this lag Josh Allen's a big one

663
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 5: on this one. They could win the game, but if

664
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 5: they don't finish the game with the football in their hands,

665
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 5: if they have the chance to do it, miserable, right,

666
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 5: Like once these guys like to finish the game. The

667
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 5: Lions had a chance. I think that was a big part.

668
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 5: We're gonna finish the game. They're not even gonna touch

669
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 5: the football. That was a big part of what dang

670
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 5: I waited.

671
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:20,160
Speaker 8: To do there.

672
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 11: I mean, Josh Allen, you know he still remembers those

673
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 11: fatal thirteen seconds to Kansas City in a playoff game.

674
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 6: You know, I mean, that was it. It haunts you

675
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:29,760
Speaker 6: for a long time. Mike.

676
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, sorry, Buffalo Baudy apologizes.

677
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:33,640
Speaker 6: Been bringing that up.

678
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 5: But that's in the back of the head, right.

679
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 6: That's another one that's in the rear viewer.

680
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, I love you, pal, go enjoy your Friday night

694
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 16: final weeks of the final week of fantasy football season,

695
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 16: they decided to have six teams on a bye And

696
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 16: now we're in by mcgeddon and I'm like William, I'm like,

Speaker 4: Everybody. Yeah, that's what we're doing.

701
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 2: They got us off that oil drilling.

702
00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:47,440
Speaker 16: Platform to put us out there to go out and

703
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:52,040
Speaker 16: save your fantasy season this week. And obviously the movie

Speaker 16: studio went and let us use the movie poster, so we.

705
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 4: And Mac just do what we did in ourselves. Listen,

706
00:30:57,680 --> 00:30:58,160
Speaker 4: I don't care.

707
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 16: Don't think that you're gonna stop me from ripping off

708
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,959
Speaker 16: that great movie Aerosmith would have signed off too.

709
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 6: Don't want to close.

710
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 16: MA looks really good, all right, but listen the roughnecks

711
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 16: that are gonna help save your season. Let's talk about

712
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 16: the quarterback position. This literally happened my friend Carla. Somehow

713
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 16: I managed to drive from the studio of NFL Fantasy

714
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:24,760
Speaker 16: Live to Huntington Beach, California, Go pick up my kids

715
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:27,880
Speaker 16: and set somebody's lineup starting with these quarterbacks. Here are

716
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:31,240
Speaker 16: four quarterbacks you can find this week. If you need somebody.

717
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,280
Speaker 16: With Lamar Jackson and Jayde Daniels out, we got Will Levis,

718
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:38,000
Speaker 16: Aidan O'Connell, mac Jones, Cooper Rush. But I love Will

719
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 16: Levis this week. Who's playing host of the Jacksonville Jaguars.

720
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 16: Over the last three games, Will Levis has average or

721
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,760
Speaker 16: at least scored more than fifteen Fantasy points in each

722
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 16: one of those games. And now he's going up against

723
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 16: the Jacksonville Jaguars, who've given up the most fantasy points

724
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,160
Speaker 16: to quarterbacks this season. This is the player that I

725
00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,120
Speaker 16: am picking up and if you don't get Will Levis

726
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 16: that I do it to Mac Jones, I want to

727
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:02,320
Speaker 16: be part of this game.

728
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 4: I know that some people.

729
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 16: Don't think this is going to be high scoring, but

730
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 16: I think this is going.

731
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,440
Speaker 4: To be a sneaky high scoring game.

732
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 16: All right, let's go to the running back position because

733
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:13,120
Speaker 16: obviously Dereck Henry is not going to be there this week.

734
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:15,000
Speaker 16: What I mean, I'm just teeing myself up this. Don't

735
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:16,040
Speaker 16: worry you guys, take a break.

736
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 6: I know you're very.

737
00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 2: No.

738
00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:22,120
Speaker 1: I listen to here Ian and Mike talk. Just save

739
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 1: our American asses.

740
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 17: Rank Let's go all right, I can see listen Jerome Ford, Uh,

741
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 17: Jalen Warden, Jalen Warren, cam Akers.

742
00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 4: But since here McCormick is a player that.

743
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 16: I would sincerely I would love to pick up. Since McCormick, yo,

744
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:43,800
Speaker 16: he's available.

745
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:45,440
Speaker 2: I just literally picked.

746
00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 4: Them up for my friend right now as I was

747
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:48,360
Speaker 4: setting her lineup. And listen.

748
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,280
Speaker 16: Last week he had a career high in rushing yards

749
00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 16: against the Kansas City Chiefs. That's a tough matchup. It

750
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:57,080
Speaker 16: is very difficult to run against that team. The matchup

751
00:32:57,120 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 16: against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this week, is so muchmuch easier,

752
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 16: and so I really think that if you are looking

753
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 16: at this at this quandary, because Joe Mixon is also

754
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:12,120
Speaker 16: out sincere McCormick's he's rostered in one percent of NFL

755
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 16: dot com leagues.

756
00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:17,360
Speaker 5: Hey, Ray, I could spend my life in this suite surrender.

757
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,120
Speaker 5: I could stay lost in this moment forever.

758
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 2: But we got to move on.

759
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,080
Speaker 5: So I gotta ask you about the wide receivers.

760
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:27,280
Speaker 16: Oh man, I guess I butchered this by just jumping

761
00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:30,280
Speaker 16: over this. But there's guys like Xavier Worthy, Kim Coleman,

762
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 16: Nick Westbrook, a Keene. But one guy I really love

763
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 16: is Cavante Turpin of the Dallas Cowboys, who's had at

764
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:40,840
Speaker 16: least fifty receiving guards in three consecutive games.

765
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:43,560
Speaker 4: And now he's going up against the Cincinnati Bengals.

766
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:46,480
Speaker 16: Who've been one of the most generous teams to opposing

767
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,520
Speaker 16: wide receivers this season. I really like him to get

768
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 16: the opportunities from Cooper Rush in a game that we

769
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 16: expect to be a shootout in Dallas. And you know what,

770
00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 16: in addition to fantasy football, if you're looking for a

771
00:33:58,320 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 16: guy who could score a touchdown at any.

772
00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:02,120
Speaker 4: More moment, it might be Turpin'.

773
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 3: So you guys are all hitting Armageddon. When I think

774
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 3: of Roughneck, I think of mc light, So I would

775
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:10,160
Speaker 3: say this rank when I beat nine to one one,

776
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:12,439
Speaker 3: I want you there with all of.

777
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 4: My tight ends.

778
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 3: So give me some of those.

779
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:16,879
Speaker 4: Oh, I'm gonna give you two guys real quick.

780
00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 16: Pat friar Mouth and Grant calcata With Given the injury

781
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:25,759
Speaker 16: concerns with Dallas Goddard, Grant cal Katara has been able

782
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:29,480
Speaker 16: to step up. But Pat Fryarmuth, I do know this

783
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:31,360
Speaker 16: is going to be chasing the fantasy points because he

784
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:33,759
Speaker 16: had a monster game last week, and it's very it's

785
00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 16: very dangerous to go out there and continue to chase

786
00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:38,920
Speaker 16: the same thing. But listen, not only did the makers

787
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:41,680
Speaker 16: of Armageddon make the same movie as Deep Impact and

788
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:43,840
Speaker 16: release him at the same time, I'm willing to do

789
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,359
Speaker 16: that here and going back to Pat friar Move, He's

790
00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:48,479
Speaker 16: available on a lot of fantasy leagues and I'm picking

791
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:49,560
Speaker 16: up and starting him this week.

792
00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 2: Rank.

793
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,440
Speaker 1: My fantasy team is four million pounds of fuel, one

794
00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:55,680
Speaker 1: nuclear weapon, and a thing with two hundred and seventy

795
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 1: thousand moving parts built by the lowest bidder makes you

796
00:34:58,080 --> 00:34:58,760
Speaker 1: feel good.

797
00:34:58,600 --> 00:34:59,200
Speaker 2: Doesn't it?

798
00:34:59,280 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 6: Not me?

799
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 2: I'm out, but thank you for trying anyway.

800
00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:08,640
Speaker 1: Coming up after this on The Insiders, Russell Wilson, Jameis Winston,

801
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 1: let's snow this time around. Maybe we'll talk about the Steelers,

802
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:14,759
Speaker 1: where things go from here, and a lot more when

803
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 1: Sarah Walls joins the show.

804
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 2: Next, it's The Insiders.

805
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:22,600
Speaker 3: You got a big AFC North rematch. Last time it

806
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:26,759
Speaker 3: was all snow globe, Jameis Winston talking about God and

807
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:30,600
Speaker 3: snowstorms and snowballs and how lovely things were and then

808
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:32,160
Speaker 3: everything went crazy after that.

809
00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:34,320
Speaker 2: Will we get that again?

810
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 4: One can only hope.

811
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:40,000
Speaker 3: Let's talk to Sarah wallsh specifically about this game. As

812
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,840
Speaker 3: we mentioned obviously, Sarah, it is going to be a

813
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:47,400
Speaker 3: rematch of what was a fantastic and bonkers game. Do

814
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,960
Speaker 3: we expect it to be similar to last time?

815
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:52,319
Speaker 18: Well, it's going to be different. And I'll go back

816
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:54,600
Speaker 18: to something you just said. You mentioned the weather. Here's

817
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:58,680
Speaker 18: the forecast Sunday in Pittsburgh expected to be forty five

818
00:35:59,160 --> 00:35:59,720
Speaker 18: and sunny.

819
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 14: That's parcticlalarly springlight conditions in.

820
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 18: Compared to what you were just mentioning, which is the

821
00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:05,960
Speaker 18: last Hey, I'm not going that.

822
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:06,799
Speaker 14: I'm for that.

823
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:09,040
Speaker 18: I have to stand out there, but you're looking at

824
00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:11,560
Speaker 18: the pictures of last time they played. It ended up

825
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,720
Speaker 18: a Browns victory in Cleveland, and the Steelers wide receiver

826
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:18,440
Speaker 18: George Pickens said that because of those conditions, it saved

827
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:21,759
Speaker 18: the Browns, basically baming that on the weather. Of course,

828
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:24,239
Speaker 18: there was a scuffle after that game with Pickens and

829
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:27,719
Speaker 18: Greg Newsom. Now Pickens showed up on the injury report today.

830
00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:30,440
Speaker 18: He practiced all week, but this Friday he showed up

831
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:33,799
Speaker 18: as limited because of a hamstring. It says he's questionable.

832
00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:36,840
Speaker 18: His rivalry with Newsom that's still going at a healthy

833
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:39,120
Speaker 18: clip because he was also asked about him today. They

834
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:40,399
Speaker 18: got into it after that game.

835
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 2: He said he.

836
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:42,400
Speaker 14: Didn't know who Newsom was.

837
00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:42,759
Speaker 2: Well.

838
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,560
Speaker 18: Newsom had a response because he was asked about those comments,

839
00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:48,799
Speaker 18: and Newsom said, you can't find it disrespectful if you

840
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:51,360
Speaker 18: don't care about the person that's saying those things. So

841
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,719
Speaker 18: that's just a little extra drama baked into Sunday's game.

842
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:56,759
Speaker 18: Some other good news for the Steelers, though, ian they

843
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,359
Speaker 18: expect to have Alex high Smith back. He's missed three

844
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:03,320
Speaker 18: games with that ankle injury. But the drama is probably

845
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:05,680
Speaker 18: coming to a boil on Pittsburgh Sunday.

846
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 3: Not that I want you standing out there in the

847
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:10,960
Speaker 3: snow on game day morning covering that game. I'm just

848
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:13,239
Speaker 3: saying the visual it's better than you standing out there

849
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:17,040
Speaker 3: just regular cold. Anyway, both of these quarterbacks on a

850
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 3: little bit of a hot streak, a little bit of

851
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:18,879
Speaker 3: a heater.

852
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:21,320
Speaker 4: Both these offenses in general.

853
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:23,240
Speaker 3: What should we expect of these offenses?

854
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:24,520
Speaker 4: What do they want to do on Sunday?

855
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:27,480
Speaker 18: Well, if you look at the numbers that Russell Wilson's

856
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:30,520
Speaker 18: and Jameis Winston put up last week combined, they threw

857
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 18: for over nine hundred yards seven touchdowns.

858
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:35,760
Speaker 14: Let's start with the Steelers side of things.

859
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:38,800
Speaker 18: Russell Wilson obviously having a fantastic season for the Steelers,

860
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:40,320
Speaker 18: he said, so much of what they've been able to

861
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:43,200
Speaker 18: do on offense is the versatility he has, and he

862
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:45,920
Speaker 18: talked about how successful they've been at the line of

863
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:49,280
Speaker 18: scrimmage this week, he said, being able to check plays,

864
00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 18: to call audibles.

865
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:52,279
Speaker 14: He said, those are some of the things that they

866
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:53,680
Speaker 14: have been really good at.

867
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:55,920
Speaker 18: Making sure that they find themselves in the right situation,

868
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:58,400
Speaker 18: which they have been plenty of times this season. On

869
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:01,240
Speaker 18: the flip side of things, James Winston had huge numbers.

870
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:04,520
Speaker 18: He had four passing touchdownps, but he also had three interceptions.

871
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:06,440
Speaker 14: Two of them were picked sixes.

872
00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:10,080
Speaker 18: Longtime Cleveland lyman Joel buttonio I talked to him today

873
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:12,359
Speaker 18: and he said that Jamis has really been very good

874
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:14,200
Speaker 18: energy for them. But he also said they got the

875
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:16,479
Speaker 18: full Jamis experience last week, and what.

876
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:18,239
Speaker 14: He means by that is the highs, the lows, and

877
00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 14: then of course the Jamis viral equips where he asked some.

878
00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:25,480
Speaker 18: Help from above to deliver him from those pick sixes.

879
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 18: On a more serious note, though, this week jay I

880
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 18: always provides a great quote on Morcius.

881
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:31,480
Speaker 14: Note this week he said the team.

882
00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:35,319
Speaker 18: Model, however, is to be smart, not conservative. He said,

883
00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 18: you can't go into a game worrying about the turnovers.

884
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 18: Betonio said that the good thing about Jamis is he

885
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:43,080
Speaker 18: has this memory that he remembers things, but he says

886
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:43,759
Speaker 18: it's so short term.

887
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:45,319
Speaker 14: He goes, I'm not even sure if he remembers storing

888
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,359
Speaker 14: the pick sixers right after he throws him.

889
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:49,920
Speaker 18: Because he's a guy that just moves on, takes accountability,

890
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,600
Speaker 18: and they thrive. Got that energy he brings, so we'll

891
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,879
Speaker 18: see what he can bring into Pittsburgh's place on Sunday.

892
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:59,080
Speaker 3: Ian when I had a beagel little Molly, she was

893
00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:01,239
Speaker 3: just like that and then twenty minutes later be like,

894
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,960
Speaker 3: did I eat then go eat again? Certainly helps James

895
00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:06,759
Speaker 3: my dog twice yesterday, why as he has the last

896
00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:07,640
Speaker 3: couple of weeks.

897
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:09,799
Speaker 14: I bet my dog twice yesterday and he looked just

898
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:10,959
Speaker 14: as sake.

899
00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 18: Yeah, and he runs over there. And then I got

900
00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:16,799
Speaker 18: in trouble because I didn't know. I'm sorry, we just

901
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:19,200
Speaker 18: digressed into a dog conversation. It just made me remember

902
00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 18: I got in trouble for that yesterday. Short term memory.

903
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:24,200
Speaker 4: This is what the viewers are here for.

904
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 2: Sarah.

905
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 4: Let's talk more offline about your dog. Thank you very much.

906
00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:29,759
Speaker 4: Enjoy that game.

907
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:32,080
Speaker 3: Enjoyed the Steelers, who, by the way, are going to

908
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:36,719
Speaker 3: be playing on Christmas Day against the Chiefs on Netflix.

909
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:39,600
Speaker 3: A lot of reasons to watch Netflix on Christmas Day,

910
00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:42,719
Speaker 3: A lot of reasons Ravens Texans as well, nothing but

911
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:44,800
Speaker 3: great games. I'm just saying that is going to be

912
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 3: an awesome broadcast all together. Meanwhile, for the San Francisco

913
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,919
Speaker 3: forty nine Ers. I mean, how could I possibly talk

914
00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:55,040
Speaker 3: about Kyle Shanahan being on the hot seat. I know

915
00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:57,319
Speaker 3: it's been a struggle, but how in the world will

916
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,879
Speaker 3: be using Shanahan and hot seat in the same set.

917
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:02,680
Speaker 3: The only way you could find out is by continuing

918
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:05,040
Speaker 3: to watch the last six minutes of The Insiders.

919
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:06,360
Speaker 4: Anyway, keep watching.

920
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:10,120
Speaker 1: Challenging season for the forty nine ers, a whole lot

921
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:13,880
Speaker 1: of injuries, more losses than wins. When it comes to

922
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:17,520
Speaker 1: the future of coach Kyle Shanahan, is there even a

923
00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:18,080
Speaker 1: story here?

924
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:22,799
Speaker 19: John Lynch, I've found the whole discussion on Kyle, and

925
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:26,920
Speaker 19: you know, like some of the stuff rather comical.

926
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:29,520
Speaker 8: I mean, we have won for the last.

927
00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:33,200
Speaker 19: Division, for the last five division championships.

928
00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 8: We've been in two Super Bowls.

929
00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:37,480
Speaker 19: Look, the standard here is to win championships and we've

930
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:40,440
Speaker 19: fallen short of that. I understand, But we have an

931
00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:43,240
Speaker 19: excellent head coach and the fact people are talking about

932
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,840
Speaker 19: stuff like that, you know, I do find it comical.

933
00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:49,240
Speaker 19: We're one hundred percent behind Kyle and what he brings

934
00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:52,880
Speaker 19: to our organization, and like I said, our focus is

935
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:56,759
Speaker 19: really on the Bears and doing everything we can. That's

936
00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:59,319
Speaker 19: where Kyle's focus is, and that's where all our focus is.

937
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:04,640
Speaker 1: Listen, you put the highest paid best players on IR

938
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:07,160
Speaker 1: for a bunch of teams, Mike, it's probably gonna be

939
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:10,360
Speaker 1: hard to rack up wins if Kyle Shanahan some of

940
00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:14,400
Speaker 1: became available, be snatched up like that by everybody with

941
00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:15,520
Speaker 1: a availability.

942
00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:17,239
Speaker 2: But what do you make of what? John Lynch?

943
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:17,839
Speaker 6: Just stand there.

944
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:21,840
Speaker 5: I see a guy coming off a Super Bowl loss,

945
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:25,560
Speaker 5: having a disappointing season, some injuries factored in there, and

946
00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:27,520
Speaker 5: people putting him on the hot seat. Reminds me of

947
00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:30,080
Speaker 5: last year when a coach was coming off a Super

948
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 5: Bowl loss and was put on the hot seat. How's

949
00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:36,360
Speaker 5: Nick Sirianni doing. Everybody relax, take a step back, Allyan.

950
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:40,520
Speaker 3: I mean, it's utterly ridiculous. Like everyone knows how good

951
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:43,080
Speaker 3: of a coach Kyle Shanahan is. But I would say this,

952
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:46,279
Speaker 3: like Mike said, God forbid, they decide to find which

953
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:47,880
Speaker 3: they are not going to. But I'm just saying, if

954
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 3: they do, he would be the most popular coach we

955
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:56,600
Speaker 3: have seen ever maybe ever, I mean right, like, one

956
00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:58,040
Speaker 3: of the top coaches in the NFL.

957
00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:00,640
Speaker 4: It's insane. Why are we even talking about this is

958
00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 4: your fault?

959
00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:01,399
Speaker 12: Time.

960
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:04,760
Speaker 1: But if you you need somebody doesn't hurt to try

961
00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:07,080
Speaker 1: to make a call. It's virtually impossible, but you get

962
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 1: a call. Everybody
