1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 1: Be Around the NFL Podcast, Love Breaks, good times. Come on,

2
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:11,119
Speaker 1: Welcome back to another edition to the Around the NFL Podcast.

3
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:13,119
Speaker 1: My name is Dan Hansas, and I'm joined by a

4
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:17,600
Speaker 1: room filled with heroes, Mark Sessler, Chris Westling, and Greg Rosa.

5
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 1: What's up, boys? Hey Dan? What is happening? One a day?

6
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 1: Week one? Week one, We're like week Fun. That's the

7
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,600
Speaker 1: new slogan the NFL will roll out for week ones

8
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 1: going forward. You put away your slogan, bringing up slogan

9
00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:36,240
Speaker 1: earrings coming back effective next week's I just thought about

10
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:37,960
Speaker 1: it this very second, so it's too late for the

11
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 1: week beginning of season slogan, but for the kickoff weekend

12
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,560
Speaker 1: week one, more like week fun. Somehow they're gonna grab

13
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:47,600
Speaker 1: that slogan and you will receive in the end no

14
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,519
Speaker 1: credit and no financial compensation for coming up with it.

15
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,240
Speaker 1: I predicted, but it's not an exaggeration. I mean everyone's

16
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 1: always this is the best week ever? Is the best

17
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 1: week one ever? There were seven or eight games that

18
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 1: ended in the last drive, at the last second, big comebacks.

19
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 1: I mean, the NFL came through. You couldn't have asked

20
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 1: for a better first week. From a personal standpoint, I

21
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,040
Speaker 1: think it's could have been a lot better, but we'll

22
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:10,960
Speaker 1: get to that. And uh, but a lot of games

23
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 1: came right down to the wire, Wes, and uh, you

24
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 1: like that, don't you. Yeah, I had a couple of them.

25
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 1: I was watching. It came down to the wire. Just

26
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 1: don't expect an upset today because they didn't happen exactly.

27
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 1: And we are taping this um during the beginning of

28
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 1: the Sunday night football game, and we are actually doing

29
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: this on periscope right now for the first time ever.

30
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 1: Were giving it a shot. We heard from the corporate

31
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: overlords on the third floor. Uh, people that don't listen

32
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: to our show, there will be no YouTube show on Sundays.

33
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: So instead we are taking this into our own hands,

34
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 1: giving it to the people on periscope. And you know

35
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 1: that's listen, man, you can't hold us down. No, I think. Look,

36
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 1: we're about the podcast. We're the number one podcast on

37
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 1: NFL media by far for a reason, because we love

38
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: the podcast. So I think this is cool we got

39
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 1: going on with periscope. It might look a little better

40
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: next week. We might have someone from the NFL helping

41
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 1: us and actually kind of walking around room and taping

42
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: us but this is cool and we don't mind being

43
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,359
Speaker 1: a completely rogue operation. If it calls for it. There's

44
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 1: a fifty percent chance they'll take this away from us

45
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,519
Speaker 1: as well. I would imagine we'll just play it by ear.

46
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,839
Speaker 1: But a lot of football to talk about. Greg, you're

47
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 1: you're giddy. Let's get to it. So let's do it, irishman,

48
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 1: let's talk about some football. Let's do it. And just

49
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 1: as an Eastern I guess I'm gonna pop up somewhere

50
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: in there on this periscope, so watch out, okay? Is

51
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:38,519
Speaker 1: that an Easter America is a special game, a unique game,

52
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 1: lay nowhere else on that. It is a rare game.

53
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: The men who play it make it. So oh yeah,

54
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 1: there we go. Let's start talking about for the first

55
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 1: time in the history of this show, gentlemen, the first

56
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,959
Speaker 1: game on Sunday that we're recapping is an Oakland Raiders game,

57
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 1: and they deserve it because a team that it in

58
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: down one point, tying a game late on a touchdown

59
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 1: pass or was it a run? I can't recall, but

60
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 1: they got within one point. And what is Jack del

61
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: Rio do? He hangs some serious onion? You notice these

62
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 1: um onions are sitting on top of the grown I

63
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: mean serious onion going for two. Derek Carr rewards his

64
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 1: coaches belief and converts to Michael Crabtree of all people

65
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 1: making the big catchings the Superdome where he was not

66
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: able to make the catch in the Super Bowl once

67
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 1: upon a time. And the result thirty five thirty four

68
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 1: the Raiders beat the Saints in New Orleans. Uh a

69
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 1: late sixty one yard attempt by Will Lutts, who's a person? Uh?

70
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 1: It went wide right or left? So Greg, your thoughts

71
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 1: about an amazing game? Will what he is a person? Uh? Well,

72
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 1: I think West should really start this one. He watched

73
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: it better. But it just goes to show you can't

74
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: buy too much hype about the Saints defense and off season.

75
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 1: They were actually doing pretty well outside of one drive

76
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: where Amari Cooper trashed the New Orleans secondary until Delvin

77
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 1: bro went down with what turned out to be I

78
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 1: believe a fractured fibulous Uh. That was a problem for

79
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 1: the Saints, but this was actually two two defenses that

80
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: really had trouble with the pass. For three and a

81
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 1: half quarters, it looked like Drew Brees could do whatever

82
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 1: he wanted and actually, all the way through the game,

83
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,720
Speaker 1: Drew Brees, Willie Snead, Brandon Cooks. That was the story

84
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: of the game really until Jack del Rio basically just said,

85
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 1: I'm not going to overtime because I don't trust my

86
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 1: defense to stop Drew Brees. Now when they when they

87
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: were lining up to go for that too, And this

88
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 1: is I believe I saw. It was the fourth or

89
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,599
Speaker 1: fifth time in NFL history that a team went for

90
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,599
Speaker 1: two to win the game in the closing seconds of

91
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,919
Speaker 1: the game, the first time since oh eight, I believe

92
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 1: it was John Gruden did it once. You thought they

93
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 1: shouldn't do it. You you thought Wet Wesseling thought that,

94
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 1: you know, you shouldn't. I thought left. I thought they

95
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 1: left way too much time on the clock for Drew

96
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 1: Brees to have a field goal drive right, and they

97
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 1: came down and almost it only came like a yard

98
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:08,840
Speaker 1: short of and of winning the game. You know who

99
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:13,039
Speaker 1: else thought, uh, uh should who else thought they should

100
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 1: have went for one? Not too the math nerds who

101
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 1: I've always been on the other side of the fence.

102
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,960
Speaker 1: You know, I've never been on in lockstep. Uh. ESPN

103
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: Stats and Research released the stat but that statistically the

104
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: odds for winning were more in the favor to kick

105
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 1: the p a T and then try to win in

106
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: overtime than going for two and then holding off Drew

107
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: Brees at the end. And guess what, Jack del Rio,

108
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 1: who's field himself with those big old onions, replies, good thing.

109
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 1: ESPN doesn't coach the Raiders. And because it was my

110
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 1: favorite call in a long time. Uh uh in terms

111
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,159
Speaker 1: of a coach call, let's hear the call from the

112
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:53,480
Speaker 1: Raiders broadcast. He doesn't make this. You lose? Yeah, very

113
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 1: shift like carry Nick going in the same formation. We're

114
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 1: gonna motion all Radi to the left to kid again,

115
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 1: A two carted to go up by a point, car

116
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 1: out of the shotgun, looks left, throws a lot for

117
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 1: Michael Crawtree. Cut it. He caught it. He caught it,

118
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:15,160
Speaker 1: My Raider say in the league for fair sweet revenge

119
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:20,160
Speaker 1: from Michael Crabtree inside the superdomin New Orleans where they

120
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: gave him pray shots to win the Super Bowl for

121
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 1: the forty Niners and he couldn't do it. Great call

122
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: right there. What do we know, Brandon? Now, that's uh,

123
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 1: that's Papa Greg, Papa I believe I believe that Papa's brother.

124
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,799
Speaker 1: I believe so yeah, I believe that is Greg Papa.

125
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 1: And what a call to call up that chart, that

126
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 1: Crabtree moment. Not in the same end zone that Mark

127
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 1: you and I and and Dan uh some come up

128
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 1: short in the Superdome, but absolutely what a fun ending

129
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,039
Speaker 1: well and how encouraging for I think for both teams

130
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 1: on offense to find out, you know, after a lot

131
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,600
Speaker 1: of hype for the Raiders, how much offensive firepower you

132
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 1: really have. I wonder if it's the acid test dot

133
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 1: come this week for either team against these defenses. Though

134
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 1: it seems I thought the Raiders secondary, which we quote

135
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 1: about all August and offseason, was gonna show up today

136
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 1: and they did the reverse. Well, it's a reminder the

137
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 1: preseason sometimes doesn't matter because the Saints offense. In the preseason,

138
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: there were a lot of worries about Sean Smith signed

139
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 1: a four year, forty million dollar contract away from the

140
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 1: Chiefs to land with the Raiders, and he was benched

141
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: by the third quarter. He was the victim on Brandon

142
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 1: victim on Brandon Cook's ninety eight yard franchise record touchdown

143
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 1: for the longest touchdown in Saints history. And he was

144
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 1: also I think he was beaten by Willie Snead on

145
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 1: a couple of plays. To Willie Sneed looked great in

146
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 1: this game. And Michael Thomas for all of the hype,

147
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 1: I mean, he looked good, reeled in all six of

148
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 1: his targets. But Willie Snead seems like he's their number two,

149
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 1: not not Michael Tom he is. He's a really interesting player.

150
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 1: Not a big physical guy, but he makes big physical catches.

151
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 1: And to me, if you're a Saints fan or someone

152
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 1: that supports them, this is about as crushing as it

153
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 1: gets to me, because I know, Okay, the offense look good,

154
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 1: there's good things to feel they had according to the

155
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 1: the box score in terms of the QB hits and

156
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 1: the Sacs almost no pressure on Derek Carr, and it

157
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 1: feels like more of the same. You know, it's every States,

158
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: it's every Saints game ever, right, but you are hoping

159
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: maybe this would somehow be different. Instead, you'll lose your

160
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 1: your best cornerback. Here for a long time, neither team

161
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 1: got pressure. Drew Brees fourteenth career, four hundred yard performance.

162
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 1: Let's move on to another great game, and you guys,

163
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 1: if you listened to our podcast and Thursday I did

164
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 1: make the announcement that if the Jaguars did not show

165
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 1: up in this game against the Packers, I was stepping

166
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 1: away from the profession here through the off season after

167
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 1: all the hype around the jackson You know what, they

168
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,320
Speaker 1: didn't win this game against the Packers, but they put

169
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 1: up a fight and that's enough to keep me employed

170
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 1: during the winter. But with the Jaguars in position for

171
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: a game when a touchdown time running out, Quentin Rollins, A,

172
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 1: Mika Hyde, and Damarius Randall all made big plays closing

173
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 1: it out. So the defense of the Packers stood strong,

174
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,400
Speaker 1: uh stood tall a twenty seven to twenty three win

175
00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: in Jacksonville. Greg, what were your takeaways here? Well, you

176
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 1: you watch week one and you're expecting, okay, what offseason

177
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 1: narrative is gonna be blown up? What's my big takeaway?

178
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 1: And sometimes, and I think this was partly true on

179
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,680
Speaker 1: Thursday night, sometimes it's just two teams that look pretty good,

180
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 1: and they look pretty even playing a well played game

181
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: that really you had no idea who's gonna win and

182
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 1: comes down to the last possession. To me, the Packers

183
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: secondary uh was something I wanted to highlight because I

184
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 1: think they were a key to the game. Quentin Rollins,

185
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 1: who got picked on, ended up making a big time

186
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 1: play to break up a play to Alan Robinson. Haha.

187
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 1: Clinton Dix made some big plays and I think both

188
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 1: secondaries looked very good in this game. A lot of

189
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 1: the problems that the Packers had an offense last year

190
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 1: had happened in this game. They weren't making plays early

191
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 1: in the down. They counted on Aaron Rodgers to just

192
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 1: make crazy plays, and you know what, he made him

193
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,880
Speaker 1: He beat the Jaguars. He he made all the big

194
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 1: plays when he needed to, and the Packers defense, to me,

195
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:54,599
Speaker 1: was just a little bit better today. It seemed to

196
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 1: me from what I saw that Jordy Nelson and Aaron Rodgers,

197
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: there's still work to go in terms of or chemistry

198
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 1: that he was not it. Maybe it resembled last year's

199
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:06,959
Speaker 1: offense to some degree because you're not getting Nelson out

200
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,199
Speaker 1: there on the field. Nine targets for Nelson for thirty

201
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 1: two yards, so that's that's not a very efficient. He

202
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:14,800
Speaker 1: caught six of them for five yards per catch. But

203
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 1: you know, there was no vertical element whatsoever. Uh in

204
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,599
Speaker 1: the Packers game Davante Adams had one chance for a

205
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,959
Speaker 1: long catch and he and he dropped it, and the

206
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 1: Nelson touchdown, which helped fantasy leaguers, came kind of on

207
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 1: a broken play. Both of Rodgers's touchdowns were just unbelievable

208
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,440
Speaker 1: individual efforts, which reminded me a little bit of last September. Yeah,

209
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 1: last September. Rogers carried this team with unbelievable, unrepeatable performances

210
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,199
Speaker 1: that can't go on all season. And if Jordy Nelson

211
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,439
Speaker 1: doesn't get back to I think that's a problem. He

212
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:45,760
Speaker 1: had all day to throw and they still have no

213
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 1: vertical element. I was gonna say, give give Jordy Nelson

214
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 1: a month. I want to see where he is, let

215
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 1: him get his feedback under him. And their offensive line

216
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 1: played really well. The Packers offensive line and Eddie Lacy

217
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,199
Speaker 1: both played really I mean, Dan, you have a sandwich

218
00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 1: riding on the fact that Green Bay's offense won't just

219
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 1: be vertical goal and intriguing, but records setting potentially. Well,

220
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: I look at the positive and I got they have

221
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,560
Speaker 1: to average thirty two points a game to hit five

222
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 1: thirty for the season, which is gonna be tough. They

223
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 1: didn't even really get it together today they got twenty seven,

224
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:14,199
Speaker 1: So I just need like a forty point game next

225
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 1: week and we're we're right on pace. I like that

226
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:18,719
Speaker 1: outlook if you're if you're a Jaguars fan, I think

227
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 1: that the most disappointing part was you didn't really see

228
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 1: any difference in a pass rush. Dante Fowler did not

229
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 1: have a good game. They really didn't get after Rogers

230
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,439
Speaker 1: at all. I was amazed. I think that all the

231
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:34,439
Speaker 1: investment they put in the secondary, Jalen Ramsey, Prince In Mukamara, um,

232
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: their safeties had a good game, that all look good,

233
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,079
Speaker 1: and that that all look promising that they would be better.

234
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 1: A little disappointed in Blake Bortles. Your boy, now he

235
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: was solid. Kind of Bortles e though, right, you know

236
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 1: he made he made a couple mistakes, but actually he

237
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,959
Speaker 1: was the biggest mistakes were really like time management, not

238
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 1: being able to get the players in and delay of games,

239
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 1: and they used the time outs very poorly well and

240
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: no Chris Ivory takes away a big part of what

241
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 1: this team wanted to do and how they wanted to

242
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,440
Speaker 1: reorganize their ground game. I mean they their preseason work

243
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 1: on the ground look great when Ivory and yelled and

244
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 1: were together. Did we get any info on that he

245
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: was in the hospital for a medical issue, some sort

246
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 1: of illness is what uh our guy NFL network insider

247
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,199
Speaker 1: Ian Rapport reported, but they didn't really expound on that.

248
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,079
Speaker 1: And the Faguars were not able to run the ball

249
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,679
Speaker 1: and the jack and the Packers I think really did

250
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 1: everything possible to prevent big plays. And that's how haw

251
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:28,959
Speaker 1: Clinton Dix and they did a great job. They threw

252
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 1: the ball fifteen times to Allen Robinson for only seventy

253
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 1: two yards. Uh, so they had a tough time going deep.

254
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:40,439
Speaker 1: Let's move on to a thriller late game, uh and

255
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 1: West It's it's time to welcome him back because Victor Cruz,

256
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 1: playing his first game in seven hundred days, had to

257
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 1: go ahead touchdown score in Big D the difference in

258
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: a twenty nineteen win by the Giants over the Cowboys,

259
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 1: a game uh that went down to literally the last second.

260
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott trying to lead Dallas into field goal range

261
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 1: with one minute to play, um past the Terrence Williams

262
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 1: cardinal mistake by Williams who instead of going out of

263
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 1: bounds and giving Dan Bailey shot of a long field

264
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:12,439
Speaker 1: goal or perhaps a Hail Mary from Prescott. Instead, the

265
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 1: clock runs out and the Giants escape with the win.

266
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 1: Mark Sessler, your thoughts, Well, it was really a tale,

267
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:21,959
Speaker 1: and people are gonna focus on that last drive for

268
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott, But it was really a tale of two

269
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 1: halves in my book, because the first half, what we

270
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: saw from Prescott and the Cowboys was absolute proof that

271
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: two thousand and fourteen can be brought back to life

272
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 1: in Dallas. They controlled the clock for twenty plus minutes.

273
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 1: Their first four drives were I believe it was fifteen plays.

274
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 1: Fifteen plays, eleven plays and seven all for scores. And

275
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,839
Speaker 1: so Prescott out of the gate looked very comfortable running

276
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,199
Speaker 1: the offense. I think he made a number of nice throws.

277
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,439
Speaker 1: They let him throw the ball forty five times. And

278
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: then in the second half it was the Giants, who

279
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 1: you know, They got in those red zone three times

280
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 1: and scored three touchdowns, and Eli Manning, whether you like

281
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 1: him or not, Eli Manning made a couple of big

282
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 1: throws and towards the end, what revealed to me was

283
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 1: with Dallas and their run defense just allowed an uninspiring

284
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 1: Giants run game to pound them up the middle over

285
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,319
Speaker 1: and over and New York really they hung in this game,

286
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 1: and I think with Dallas, it's not there's not a

287
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 1: lot of panic here. There's a I think presscott us

288
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 1: a lot to offer, but this one got away from them. Well,

289
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 1: we thought that Ezekiel Elliott and Dez Bryant would give

290
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 1: the Cowboys two big play threats at home run hitters,

291
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 1: and that didn't really happen today. Dez Bryant had the

292
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 1: one catch overturned that would have been a touchdown, But

293
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: it sounds like Dez was kind of an afterthought. It's

294
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,880
Speaker 1: not it's not football season until a Dez Briant big

295
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 1: play gets overturned. But that was the right call, right

296
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 1: I I think it was the right call. It looked

297
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 1: you know. I think I'm with West, who knows what

298
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,080
Speaker 1: to catch us anymore? But I was angry about this.

299
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 1: I just it doesn't touch the ground and it's not

300
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 1: a catch. I don't understand. It changed the game entirely,

301
00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: and I think honestly it took It took Dez Bryant

302
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: out of this game a little bit because he seemed

303
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 1: in a lot of beat writers noted this too, that

304
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 1: he was just his demeanor was a little bit tilted

305
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 1: in the second half. And with Elliott. I have no

306
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 1: questions about Elliot in general, but I think that the

307
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 1: Giants deserve credit for this defensive line showed up against

308
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 1: a very good offensive line, held Elliott to two point

309
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 1: five yards per carry. Well what about Jason Pierre Paul?

310
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 1: I saw a couple couple tweets, and you know, I

311
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 1: haven't watched the game fully yet, but just saying that

312
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,080
Speaker 1: he was all over the place, and that's making me

313
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 1: feel pretty good about a forgotten sandwich prop we have

314
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 1: long ago, Mario Williams versus JPP, and Mario Williams was

315
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 1: concussed bad week. Well you're off to a good start.

316
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 1: Things like like the offensive line for the SPENSI Mario

317
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 1: Williams was just just your way to brag about JPP. No.

318
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 1: I wanted. I wanted to hear hear about the Cowboys

319
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 1: offensive line because we think of them as the best

320
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 1: group in the league. But it sounds like they didn't

321
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 1: really win their matchups today. Well they didn't. They didn't

322
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 1: record a sack on on Dak Prescott. That's to do

323
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 1: with his mobility, but also just the fact that you

324
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 1: are playing the number one line in pro football. But

325
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,200
Speaker 1: when it came to the ground game, I think the

326
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 1: Dallas if they wanted, if their plan is to run

327
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 1: for hundred sixty seventy yards a game, they can't do

328
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 1: what happened today. I want to hear um because the

329
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 1: Oakland one was excellent. I'm hoping for a meltdown by

330
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 1: the local Dallas guys on the Terence Williams played. We

331
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: have that irish here. It is twelve seconds left, third down,

332
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 1: back to throw, throws it out, rock pounds to the yard,

333
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 1: to the vehicle plays who was that Williams? He didn't

334
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 1: get out of bounds on the clock is going to

335
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 1: here right now and the game is open to Terrence Williams.

336
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 1: Had turned right instead of left, they would have had

337
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 1: at least one more playing. Let me say this. Let

338
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 1: me say this about these Giants Cowboys games, because I

339
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 1: know they're not very popular around these parts. They're always entertaining.

340
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: I enjoyed always very competitive games with dramatic endings a

341
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,680
Speaker 1: lot of times. This one was no different. Terrence Williams

342
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 1: mis Q was like the Chris Webber time out in

343
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 1: college basketball. You're probably gonna lose the game anyway. I mean,

344
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,960
Speaker 1: they're the Cowboys, have very little chance to win in

345
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,679
Speaker 1: that situation. That image you'll remember is of Dez Bryant

346
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 1: just pointing go out of bounds, go out of bounds,

347
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:12,359
Speaker 1: and him ignoring it. And before we move on West,

348
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:16,680
Speaker 1: I think time to welcome Victor Cruz. Welcome back first

349
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 1: touchdown days. He's an actual football player again. He's back.

350
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,160
Speaker 1: It was the go ahead touchdown and he also had

351
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 1: another drive, a very big catch that helped him score

352
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 1: another another touchdown. As we happy for him. I don't

353
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,240
Speaker 1: know about that salsa dance. It's good to have him

354
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:32,959
Speaker 1: back on the field. I know it's only weak one,

355
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 1: but that's losing home game to a division foe is

356
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 1: the worst possible loss you can have. It just thinks

357
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 1: a little extra in Week one. Let's move on Matt Prator,

358
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:46,399
Speaker 1: a man who I remember the Super Bowl a few

359
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:50,439
Speaker 1: years back with forty niners, uh wearing a studded earring

360
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,359
Speaker 1: in his ear lobe, which I was like, a kicker,

361
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 1: you can't do that, bro. And then today Matt Prator,

362
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,160
Speaker 1: he was all set up to be the goat because

363
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:00,159
Speaker 1: he missed an extra point that looked like it was

364
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 1: gonna cost the Detroit Lions a game, but he comes back.

365
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 1: It's put The Lions moved down the field against the

366
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:08,480
Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts prator. It hits the forty three yard or

367
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,920
Speaker 1: and that was it. The final score. The Detroit Lions

368
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 1: thirty nine, Indianapolis called thirty five. The score got to

369
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 1: from thirty seven to thirty five on an absurd multilateral

370
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:23,879
Speaker 1: desperation attempt by the Cults special teams that ended in

371
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 1: a safety. But this was a game Greg Rosenthal that

372
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,119
Speaker 1: the Lions almost like get away, But you gotta give

373
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,720
Speaker 1: them credit. They got gumption. You have to give them credit.

374
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,200
Speaker 1: It was the exact type of game. Whoever had the

375
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 1: ball last was gonna win. These defenses had nothing. It

376
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:44,280
Speaker 1: looked like the Lions were going up against a practice

377
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 1: squad type of team. And we've talked about the Colts injuries.

378
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:50,239
Speaker 1: They lost their Remember they entered this game without their

379
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:52,680
Speaker 1: top two cornerbacks. They lost two of their top three

380
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:56,320
Speaker 1: cornerbacks in this game. So with that situation, you think

381
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford should rack up four d and fifty total yards.

382
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 1: I was really impressed by the way Andrew Luck went

383
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 1: up and down the field like it was two thousand

384
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 1: and fourteen. Once it was twenty one to three, I

385
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 1: believe it was late in the second quarter. They put

386
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 1: up thirty two points from that point for they did

387
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:17,160
Speaker 1: whatever they wanted. So everyone on offense has to feel

388
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 1: good about this game. But I'm gonna get on Chuck

389
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:22,600
Speaker 1: Bogano and the Colts offense for taking a bizarre time

390
00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 1: out with one fifteen left. Ended up. You know, it's

391
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 1: easy to point fingers now, but it ended up giving

392
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,359
Speaker 1: them the Lions time to win the game. You know

393
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:35,440
Speaker 1: how Mark is the quiet storm on Sunday's storm below

394
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,639
Speaker 1: the surface. That's how I am with premature honking on

395
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:41,119
Speaker 1: Twitter during games, and I was getting messages in the

396
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 1: first quarter the first half. Shouldn't we just admit that

397
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:47,200
Speaker 1: Andrew Luck's not very good? One of those two, you know,

398
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,160
Speaker 1: come back to Andrew Luck looks like a forty Niners quarterback.

399
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 1: That was one of the tweets two, and I'm just like,

400
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,399
Speaker 1: all right, mute. I must muted at least a thousand

401
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,119
Speaker 1: So wait, you muting not blocking? Well, it depends on

402
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 1: the it depends on the infraction. West is in love. No,

403
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: that's true. Paramore it's a kinder softler the old days,

404
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 1: he's blocking you. If you're at Paris, there's only there's

405
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 1: only twenty American citizens that haven't been blocked by West

406
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 1: at this point. So he's only got so much audience left.

407
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 1: If you're gonna do premature honking. And all you people

408
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,159
Speaker 1: crying about the Titans a team of a t L

409
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,360
Speaker 1: because they didn't show up, it's week one's weak one.

410
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,000
Speaker 1: In the old days, West would block you. He'd look

411
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 1: up your I P address, he'd send men to your

412
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,400
Speaker 1: doors to break your knees. Now he's sitting the mute

413
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,440
Speaker 1: next next thing, you know, he'll be like, oh that's

414
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 1: a good point. I differ in my opinion, Come on

415
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,440
Speaker 1: over to my house. But football is great for that reason. Well, yeah,

416
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,920
Speaker 1: I'm I'm not likely to say premature honking is a

417
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 1: good idea. Does it feel like the cults like Andrew

418
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,359
Speaker 1: Luck could lead, the lead and lead, you could touchdown passes,

419
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 1: but the cults go six and ten. Because as we've

420
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 1: talked about, Ryan Grigson has two has put together a

421
00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 1: team that is mass is bizarre. The way he's put

422
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:58,680
Speaker 1: together is a terrible He's getting fired in January the

423
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,159
Speaker 1: coach is getting fired. It's a little and you know what,

424
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:05,160
Speaker 1: I will do some honking this team. He is gonna

425
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:06,679
Speaker 1: be the new and Luck is gonna be the new

426
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 1: Dan Marino until they get better, uh support system around him.

427
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,160
Speaker 1: I can honk about the coach and GM. I think

428
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,679
Speaker 1: Andrew Luck is beyond reproach. But I'm not gonna get

429
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,040
Speaker 1: excited about this team until they got some better talent. Well,

430
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,359
Speaker 1: I always trust an offense and if not for that

431
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,879
Speaker 1: ridiculously fast I think fifty second, fifty yard whatever it

432
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 1: was that the Lions field goal drive to win this game,

433
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 1: This would have been the story of the day. One

434
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 1: of the stories in the NFL would have been lux

435
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:32,800
Speaker 1: come back and the way that they just went up

436
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,119
Speaker 1: and down the field. I was really impressed. Granted, their

437
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 1: defense bad, but in this AFC South that their offense

438
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,200
Speaker 1: I think should be enough to keep them around. You

439
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,880
Speaker 1: know what, I'm gonna tell you something, what they're gone?

440
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:48,360
Speaker 1: He said, Dolly Cooter. Oh yeah, Marvin Jones. Also, what's

441
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:50,880
Speaker 1: not the like about cop? Yeah? I wanna the Lions,

442
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:55,359
Speaker 1: uh Marvin Jones and the up tempo offense. And I

443
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:59,400
Speaker 1: know they were playing the but Riddick and Abdullah both

444
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 1: had fan tastic games. They used them in very smart ways.

445
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 1: Cougar with the brains. I love Couter, like, here's the

446
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 1: thing and this. I said this, not not to you know,

447
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:12,159
Speaker 1: toot the old horn. I don't do that. But on

448
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 1: Thursday Show, I said, isn't it possible that the Blinds

449
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 1: could be an entertaining team, especially if Abdullah gets heated

450
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:20,959
Speaker 1: up in this Marvin Jones Golden tape thing is interesting?

451
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 1: And Stafford has a good Stafford season. They look like

452
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 1: a fun team to watch. I got a lot of

453
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 1: positive tweets about a mirror Abdul today. People really liked

454
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 1: what they saw. Yeah, he he was. He was terrific.

455
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:32,720
Speaker 1: Made a lot of people miss theoretic at the end

456
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:34,879
Speaker 1: of the game, had a had a drive where I

457
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 1: mean he was calling up the ghosts of Barry Sanders.

458
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 1: I know Barry still alive, but wow, he was gonna

459
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 1: say it was that breaking news. I'm just saying ghost World,

460
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:48,720
Speaker 1: well the plane ghost. You know he's making people miss

461
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 1: it wasn't outrageous drive. When you watch it on game pass,

462
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,359
Speaker 1: you'll know what I'm talking about. All right, let's move on.

463
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,440
Speaker 1: So Barry Sanders alive. He's alive, all right, another breaking

464
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:03,920
Speaker 1: this justin for Los Angeles. Barry Sanders not dead, so

465
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:09,359
Speaker 1: reassuring to know that. Moving on, Jamis Winston, Oh, Greg

466
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 1: speaking honking Jameis Winston. Greg's boy got off to a

467
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 1: slow start on Sunday against the Falcons, but then went nuts.

468
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:19,280
Speaker 1: After he started two or five of the pick he

469
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 1: went off with four touchdowns, including some beautiful deepall hook

470
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 1: ups with Austin Saverian Jenkins and Mike Evans, and that

471
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 1: was all the Bucks would need. They ended up with

472
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:33,440
Speaker 1: a thirty one to twenty four win in Atlanta. Not

473
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 1: in the new facility, by the way, that new facility

474
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: opens next year. This is at the Georgia Dome. So

475
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,200
Speaker 1: so many spine tingling moments through the years in the

476
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 1: Georgia Dome. It's sad to see the final opening game

477
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,080
Speaker 1: at the Georgia Dome being a defeat. But Greg, you

478
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 1: don't care about that. You're excited about Jamis Winston because

479
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,959
Speaker 1: you got like seventeen thousand sandwich wagers tied to him.

480
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,679
Speaker 1: By sandwiches are looking good. I need them to make

481
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 1: the playoffs. They are in sole possession of first place.

482
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 1: In the NFC. Well, you need them to play the

483
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,680
Speaker 1: Falcons defense every week. Yeah, that would that would help

484
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 1: everything you would want to see in a Bucks game.

485
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 1: Week one happened. Mike Evans going deep, uh, like he

486
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 1: did a couple of years ago, a little more consistent.

487
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,399
Speaker 1: Doug Martin and Charles Sims both made really big plays.

488
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 1: Winston bounced back. The thing I like most about him

489
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 1: is that he's always aggressive. Like he can have a

490
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 1: terrible first quarter, but he's gonna always keep gunning. Question

491
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,200
Speaker 1: for you, because there was a lot of chatter about

492
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,720
Speaker 1: can we take our our no huddle, fast paced approach

493
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,400
Speaker 1: into enemy territory and they talked about maybe not doing

494
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 1: as much of that, but they were so effective in

495
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 1: the preseason doing that. Was that how they operated today.

496
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,040
Speaker 1: It's at points they did, at points they didn't. Uh.

497
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 1: It definitely worked in the second quarter. I mean, they

498
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 1: they were a streaky team. This game was up and

499
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 1: down in the Falcons fought back as as well as

500
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,880
Speaker 1: Jamis Winston played. I think Matt Ryan might have played

501
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:54,439
Speaker 1: even better in this game. This loss was not on him. Uh.

502
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 1: He led them back on a tough come back and

503
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,760
Speaker 1: really played well. But the Falcons had no running game

504
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:01,920
Speaker 1: to speak of. Tevin Coleman was in the mix a

505
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,200
Speaker 1: lot and was a big factor made some great plays

506
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,880
Speaker 1: in the passing game, but the Falcons just couldn't push

507
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 1: the Bucks around up front, and the Bucks had a

508
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 1: little more of a pass rush than they than they

509
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:14,440
Speaker 1: haven't in years past. Is Kwan Alexander making the I

510
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:21,680
Speaker 1: think Kuan Kuang has heaven We isolate that Kwan Alexander

511
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,440
Speaker 1: has to pass our friend on the desk, Kwan Lam

512
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,959
Speaker 1: in the Kuan power ranking. Whoa, you know, Kwan's got

513
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:29,439
Speaker 1: a bit of a temper around them. Might be careful.

514
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 1: He's the number one Kwan seventeen tackles, a sack, two

515
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 1: tackles for lost. He was everywhere. And Lavante David had

516
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 1: three tackles for lost. He looks like Lavonte David again.

517
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 1: And the two of them, I'm not saying they're the

518
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,480
Speaker 1: best linebacker group in the league, but they've got to

519
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 1: be among the fastest and the most exciting to watch.

520
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: Just a note downstairs, I mean, Greg, you know, absolutely

521
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:52,159
Speaker 1: glowing during this uh this event, this whole game. But

522
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,200
Speaker 1: they're a little bubbling up conversation about the Bucks being

523
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: the team of a T N and a t L

524
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 1: and listen, West and I shot that down right away

525
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:05,399
Speaker 1: based on two items. One their field, which is too sunny,

526
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 1: and we've discussed that it's hard to watch that that

527
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 1: can negate and I'm just saying it's The second one

528
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 1: is the Bucks uniform. And let's important to note that

529
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 1: Greg is color blind, so it's not an issue for Greg,

530
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,000
Speaker 1: but for the rest of us it would be a

531
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: large Their uniforms are literally vomit inducing. One day I

532
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 1: had a hangover and their uniforms made me see. You know,

533
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 1: I remember this old Chris Wesley and I used to

534
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,920
Speaker 1: know and love that said, oh, I have an open mind.

535
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,160
Speaker 1: I always I want to watch the football and see

536
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 1: what inspires me. I'm not gonna just go in. I'm

537
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 1: gonna give these teams a chance. Give Sorry, the uniforms

538
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:43,480
Speaker 1: are a deal breaker. A West, that's ridiculous. That's that

539
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 1: is weird. West, It's hideous. It's I can't watch the

540
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 1: Jets either. These Bucks are exciting, They're hideous. They make

541
00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:53,040
Speaker 1: every player look ten times slower than they are in

542
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 1: real life. I'm not even gonna just about that. I

543
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:56,879
Speaker 1: thought you were a football man. By the way, my

544
00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,639
Speaker 1: boy Chelyn Patel over in Tampa, big Bucks fan, texted

545
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,200
Speaker 1: me on Friday. Good to know some folks at NFL

546
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 1: dot com aren't sleeping on Jamis and the Bucks. Your

547
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:10,080
Speaker 1: boy Rosenthal is on point. Who is the person that

548
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 1: texted you? My boy shellin what he's talking about? So

549
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:19,720
Speaker 1: you are unnationally known as someone who's connected to this team.

550
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 1: You gotta be feeling good. I am. You're like Joe

551
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:27,160
Speaker 1: Bucks fans favorite writer. It's like me, Jamis Winston. That's

552
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 1: who people think of when they think of the Bucks.

553
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:38,400
Speaker 1: Speaking of potential team of a t OR, the heavy

554
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 1: favorite going into Week one was the Tennessee Titans, which

555
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 1: made their play on Sunday a little bit troublesome. They

556
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 1: failed to move the ball. Uh, it appears, at least

557
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:51,959
Speaker 1: based on the score, a twenty five to sixteen defeat

558
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:55,560
Speaker 1: to the Minnesota Vikings. A very good team obviously, But

559
00:27:56,000 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 1: Chris Westling, you are the king of the committee to

560
00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 1: nominate and elect the Titans as a team of a

561
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,639
Speaker 1: t L. Anything in this game will start from the

562
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,719
Speaker 1: Tennessee side that had you a little noivus. Well, they

563
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,440
Speaker 1: weren't just the favorite entering week one. They were the

564
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:14,639
Speaker 1: prohibitive favorite entering the third quarter of this game. They

565
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:18,400
Speaker 1: were in complete control and then absolutely melted down after

566
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 1: Marcus Mariotta threw a pick six on a careless play

567
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,199
Speaker 1: in which he just didn't see Eric Kendricks, and then

568
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 1: they fumble on a read options snap between Mariota and

569
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 1: DeMarcus Murray DeMarco Murray. Then Murray fumbles again. It was

570
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,919
Speaker 1: those three second half turnovers that doomed the Titans. They

571
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 1: actually outgained the Vikings in this game. You want to

572
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:38,600
Speaker 1: write a book how not to be the team of

573
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 1: a t L I think losing at home to Sean

574
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,240
Speaker 1: Hill has to be the first chapter. I think it

575
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 1: lost to the Vikings defense though, because it sounds like,

576
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:48,600
Speaker 1: you know, Connor or was at the game and did

577
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 1: a great write up, and he was glowing. I was

578
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 1: i aming with him during the game. He was glowing

579
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 1: over this team, saying how fun they were to watch,

580
00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 1: how the way that they used players and move them

581
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,080
Speaker 1: around pre snap or almost it was like it was artistry.

582
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 1: That's why I was confused because I heard the same things.

583
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 1: And then with three minutes of the fourth quarter they

584
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 1: had ten points. I was wondering what I think they

585
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:10,800
Speaker 1: got off to a fast second, the wheels came off,

586
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:12,959
Speaker 1: the second half turnovers was what it was. But if

587
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:14,960
Speaker 1: you are if you're trying to get away from being

588
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 1: the Titoons, Uh, you can't lay an egg like this

589
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 1: in week one because especially with Mike Malarkey involved, and

590
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 1: I know we move past that as a problem that

591
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:25,800
Speaker 1: this was a very Mike Malarkey type way to start

592
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:27,920
Speaker 1: a season. Well, you know how they're built. They are

593
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:30,600
Speaker 1: not a team that's going to come from behind. They

594
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,040
Speaker 1: once they lose the lead, I don't know if there's

595
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 1: any coming back. And as much as I like Mariota,

596
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:39,360
Speaker 1: there was no deep ball again today. Well, and also

597
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 1: this is a team that I think we wouldn't have

598
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 1: been surprised had they come out maybe against Minnesota, but

599
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,280
Speaker 1: in general, hundred and eighty yards rushing kind of just

600
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 1: keep dominating the way two point nine yards per attempt

601
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,880
Speaker 1: with sixty four total yards. Well, that's that's the thing.

602
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:55,959
Speaker 1: Their style invites games to be close, so it can

603
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 1: feel like they're the dominant team in the first half,

604
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,080
Speaker 1: but you're only up ten point And if you're that

605
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 1: type of team, you can't have turnovers, and you really

606
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 1: need to have a better defense if you're gonna be

607
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 1: a defense. Wasn't too bad they they had Adrian Peterson

608
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,080
Speaker 1: had one of the worst games of his careers. Today

609
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 1: is uh, did Sean Hill do enough to keep the

610
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,760
Speaker 1: job in Week two? I thought he did. If you

611
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 1: would have asked me at halftime, I would have thought

612
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 1: Sam Bradford was gonna come into that game. And then

613
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,760
Speaker 1: he came out in the second half, let a few drives,

614
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:27,080
Speaker 1: and really the Titans were stack in the box, so

615
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 1: they made it easy on Sean Hill and Stefan Diggs

616
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:32,240
Speaker 1: had a really good game and made them pay for

617
00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:35,640
Speaker 1: stack in the box. Derrick Henry do anything? Derrick Henry

618
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 1: turned to a basically a one yard dump off pass

619
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 1: into a twenty nine yard game. But he didn't do

620
00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:43,160
Speaker 1: much as a runner and they didn't. I didn't think

621
00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 1: they used him enough as a runner. How about Taj

622
00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:47,920
Speaker 1: sharpe Am, I still alive in my sandwich bet that

623
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:52,480
Speaker 1: he might potentially lead all rookie receivers. He is just

624
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 1: he is locked and loaded as the number one receiver.

625
00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,160
Speaker 1: No doubt he is the go to target for Mariotas

626
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 1: he just said it. Was load. He was drunk at

627
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 1: the game, and that's got to make you nervous. Still

628
00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:06,960
Speaker 1: at seven catches and hebriated. Pretty good game. Vikings gotta

629
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 1: be fired up to win. They gotta be feeling good

630
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 1: win a game like this on the road with with Hill.

631
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,239
Speaker 1: I tend to think Sam Bradford's definitely starting Week two,

632
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,680
Speaker 1: but maybe I'm crazy. Well politically, how do you keep

633
00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 1: Sam Bradford on the bench after you just Shippings and

634
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 1: all the all the hype about Stefon Diggs kind of

635
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 1: taking making a leap this offseason. He comes through with

636
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 1: a hundred and three yards. He had a good game.

637
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 1: I agree. I think they'll have to go with Bradford

638
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,280
Speaker 1: and maybe a lot of Sean Hill. Success today was

639
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,560
Speaker 1: just that the Titans were stacking the box and it

640
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:37,360
Speaker 1: made it easy for any quarterback to go out there

641
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 1: and move the ball. Oh, I love this. By the way.

642
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 1: They have a game, uh next week against the Packers

643
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 1: the Vikings. Yeah, the Vikings do in their building. Mhm.

644
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 1: Win that football game and everyone's gonna be saying, uh,

645
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 1: teddy who They're still gonna do it. They're a balanced team.

646
00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:59,360
Speaker 1: I think that I'm looking that's the way the football

647
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:03,360
Speaker 1: Cogniscent operates. They cast humans aside. I will still have

648
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 1: Mr Bridgewater in my thought. It would be an agro

649
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 1: response for the fan base for that to be it.

650
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 1: That's I'm saying, Okay, let's move on. Oh another season.

651
00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:16,880
Speaker 1: If Cleveland Browns football is underway and the man that

652
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 1: they essentially said we don't want that guy, We're gonna

653
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 1: trade him somewhere else and get all the draft picks.

654
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz starts against the Brownies in Week one and

655
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:28,760
Speaker 1: he plays very well. Twenty two thirty seven, two and

656
00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 1: seventy eight yards, two touchdowns through the air. That would

657
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:33,560
Speaker 1: be enough because the Browns could not move the ball

658
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 1: themselves at twenty nine to ten win for the Eagles

659
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 1: in Philly. A nice start to the season for the Eagles. Mark,

660
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 1: did you like the way Carson Wentz played football today?

661
00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:45,280
Speaker 1: I did? I I Number one, I don't even want

662
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:48,440
Speaker 1: to judge quarterbacks entirely on their first season of play,

663
00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 1: So a first game, I don't know what to expect

664
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,400
Speaker 1: in certain atmospheres to paint what team you're on. Carson

665
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 1: Wentz for me, and there's a reason I liked him

666
00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: in the in the potential of Cleveland taking him is

667
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 1: because he very much fits an a f C North

668
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: type quarterback, but he also fits Philadelphia Eagles football. This

669
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,840
Speaker 1: guy is aggressive, he throws the ball down field, he

670
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 1: is One thing I like about him is he got

671
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:13,440
Speaker 1: rocked a couple of times today and did not He

672
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,480
Speaker 1: kept his footing and finished with the past. Now I

673
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 1: still think Carson Wentz he's raw. There's still work to

674
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 1: be done. He sales passes high. There were mistakes to

675
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:24,640
Speaker 1: be made, but at the same time, you know, he

676
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:28,240
Speaker 1: kept generating points. It was one pass after our next

677
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 1: where it was a great catch combination with a good throw,

678
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 1: but once keeps moving the ball where on the opposite

679
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 1: side of the field you're seeing what someone without Carson

680
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 1: Wentz did and without the parts around the quarterback. Philadelphia

681
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 1: is a much better place for a rookie quarterback to

682
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 1: be in Cleveland. Is the Browns defense so inept that

683
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,240
Speaker 1: we should take this performance with a grain of salt.

684
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,320
Speaker 1: The Browns defense, one thing I thought that they tackled

685
00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 1: better than they did in the preseason. They were probably

686
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 1: the worst tackling team I've seen in years. In the preseason,

687
00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:58,360
Speaker 1: they shored that up. I think that there's major issues

688
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,640
Speaker 1: because they can't stop the run and their secondary is

689
00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:04,920
Speaker 1: an absolute mess. So yes, I don't think it's a

690
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 1: game that we can say, here's what we can really

691
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:09,239
Speaker 1: tell about Carson Wentz, that he's going to go out

692
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:11,799
Speaker 1: and face much tougher opponents over the next month. They

693
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,160
Speaker 1: give they give up four yards to a team that

694
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 1: we said that had among the worst receiver groups. Now

695
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:19,240
Speaker 1: they got Jordan Matthews back. Well, they made Jordan Matthews

696
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,440
Speaker 1: look like Mike Young, Michael Irvin and then and then

697
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,279
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz and in his first first start, how did

698
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,200
Speaker 1: r G three look against the good Eagles. I also

699
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:29,880
Speaker 1: think it's hard to r G three. It seems like

700
00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 1: Cleveland has a deep ball or bust offense. That's all

701
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:35,040
Speaker 1: they have. You you connect a couple of deep passes,

702
00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:37,480
Speaker 1: you cannot run the ball, you know. R G three

703
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:39,960
Speaker 1: was their leading rusher going into the fourth quarter, and

704
00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:42,520
Speaker 1: then they got some yardage in garbage time when they

705
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 1: were it was past situations when they were running with

706
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,440
Speaker 1: with Isaiah Crowell. I think it is a very incomplete

707
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 1: offense that is weeks and months and maybe even seasons

708
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:55,520
Speaker 1: away from really having the parts in place to comp Well,

709
00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:57,879
Speaker 1: I'm saying, okay, I'm saying they're gonna need a whole

710
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:00,600
Speaker 1: another draft and a whole another free agency period to

711
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:03,000
Speaker 1: to impose their will on team. This is where it

712
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:05,600
Speaker 1: could feel like a bit of a con if you

713
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:07,600
Speaker 1: if you say there's no you don't even have to

714
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 1: show strides in the year one, because we have all

715
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 1: these draft picks in that year. In that year, you

716
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:14,360
Speaker 1: gotta make some progress. Where is Duke Johnson in this

717
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:17,680
Speaker 1: game plan? Three rushes and three catches? I thought he

718
00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 1: was supposed to be a weapon. I think I think that.

719
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,520
Speaker 1: I think the big mistake in Cleveland was you had

720
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:24,480
Speaker 1: a good offensive line when you had nothing else on

721
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:26,440
Speaker 1: the team for a long time, and then when you

722
00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:29,240
Speaker 1: finally start building, getting some other parts in places somewhere

723
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:31,880
Speaker 1: wide receivers. I mean. RG three got rocked in the

724
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,520
Speaker 1: second half of this game. Three sacks. He's hurt. He

725
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:38,800
Speaker 1: heard distillcated elbow or or left shoulder brand shoulder, but

726
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:40,520
Speaker 1: he looked like he got hit in the head two

727
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:43,200
Speaker 1: a couple of times. I don't know how long RG

728
00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:46,440
Speaker 1: three lasts at all, or how many how any quarterbacks.

729
00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 1: I don't understand, mate, got to targets, but no catches.

730
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:54,799
Speaker 1: No y'alledge. I was one of the best ends, mate,

731
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:58,399
Speaker 1: all says you bunge and now you don't even talg

732
00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:01,399
Speaker 1: at me in the office and not well. He threw

733
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 1: a two passes to Gary Barnes that Gary Barnet should

734
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 1: have caught and one in the first drive slowed things down. Secondly,

735
00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 1: Gary Barnage, when Josh McCown was not on the field

736
00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:14,200
Speaker 1: last season, was a very different player in his line

737
00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:16,200
Speaker 1: over the course of a year would have been very different.

738
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:18,920
Speaker 1: And so sometimes some of these guys match up well

739
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 1: with a certain quarterback. We're not seeing that with r

740
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:23,759
Speaker 1: G three and Gary Barnage. Will you provide us with

741
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:30,440
Speaker 1: one word to describe cam Irving Flighty And I'll say,

742
00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 1: because he flew us. He flew a snap right over

743
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 1: r G three's head for a for a safety. And

744
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:37,959
Speaker 1: that is the moment when people in the office for saying,

745
00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 1: oh Cleveland still game. I'll tell you you know, I said,

746
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 1: at a certain point, usually it's in the first or

747
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:44,640
Speaker 1: second quarter with a Brown's game game over and I'm

748
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:47,440
Speaker 1: eighty one for eighty one calling these games. And I

749
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:49,400
Speaker 1: did it again brown should not play in Week one

750
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 1: market a sneaky, solid mood A day kind of seemed

751
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,120
Speaker 1: like you thought, Well, honestly, I think that other unlike

752
00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:57,400
Speaker 1: other years, and I honestly the Eagles deserved to be

753
00:36:57,440 --> 00:36:59,360
Speaker 1: talked about much more than the Browns. The Browns do

754
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,480
Speaker 1: not deserve much billion this entire season. I know they're

755
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 1: not gonna win these games, and so there's no emotion

756
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,920
Speaker 1: attached to it. Dan, the periscope crew just wanted to

757
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 1: let you know they appreciated the barnage impressions. Oh thanks mate, Um,

758
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 1: that was a little Australian. But wow, Jordan Matthews having

759
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:18,960
Speaker 1: that breakout years, he looked great and I think that

760
00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:20,800
Speaker 1: had a lot to do with him lining up against

761
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:22,880
Speaker 1: the thirty three year old Tremont Williams in the slot,

762
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:25,359
Speaker 1: also lining up quite a bit outside in this game,

763
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,600
Speaker 1: which is different than the Chip Kelly era. Let's move on, gentlemen,

764
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 1: and talk about those Houston UH Texans who have a

765
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,120
Speaker 1: new quarterback and a new running back, and for one

766
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:38,240
Speaker 1: week at least, things look to be all good in Houston.

767
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:40,959
Speaker 1: The Texans got a lot out of their boy, Lamar Miller,

768
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:43,040
Speaker 1: who had a career high twenty eight carries for a

769
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:45,680
Speaker 1: hundred and six yards to go along with four catches.

770
00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:48,879
Speaker 1: He led the way in a tree to fourteen win

771
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 1: over the Chicago Bears. Mark Sessler tell me about the

772
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:56,480
Speaker 1: new look Texans offense, brock Osweiler and Lamar Miller leading

773
00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:58,520
Speaker 1: the way and a rookie. Yeah, I think I think

774
00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:00,800
Speaker 1: that those are the two big takeaways. Lamar Miller is

775
00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:03,560
Speaker 1: going to get fed twenty eight carries today. They're not

776
00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:05,960
Speaker 1: going to shy away or play games with him. Uh.

777
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 1: He he looked very good at times, had a costly fumble,

778
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:10,400
Speaker 1: and you know, the Texans kind of this was a

779
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:12,560
Speaker 1: weird game where the Bears looked like the better team

780
00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:16,040
Speaker 1: for for early parts of this. But Will Fuller, what

781
00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 1: an exciting rookie, Yes, because you know we he had.

782
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:23,000
Speaker 1: He dropped what would have been an electrifying touched long

783
00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:25,800
Speaker 1: touchdown catch, but he made up for it. Five catches,

784
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 1: a hundred and seven yards a touchdown and he's just someone.

785
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:31,960
Speaker 1: Then the minute he catches the ball, everyone on defense

786
00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:33,759
Speaker 1: is scared that they're close to having to try to

787
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,680
Speaker 1: tackle this guy. He's an unusual athlete and he adds

788
00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 1: a completely different dimension across from DeAndre Hopkins and makes

789
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:43,040
Speaker 1: Brock cosswill look better than Brock Hossweiler is I think

790
00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,200
Speaker 1: that speed. I think Kevin Patrick wrote the write up

791
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:49,880
Speaker 1: and and mentioned that he's the perfect compliment to DeAndre Hopkins,

792
00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:52,120
Speaker 1: and I think that's why the Texans didn't take La

793
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:54,560
Speaker 1: Kwan Treadwell or someone like that. They wanted his speed

794
00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:57,040
Speaker 1: out there. People criticized that pick a little bit and

795
00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:00,600
Speaker 1: you said unusual athlete, and I think that's right. Fuller

796
00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:04,160
Speaker 1: really stands out on the field, which doesn't happen a

797
00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:06,200
Speaker 1: lot with NFL players, And to think that he's an

798
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:09,239
Speaker 1: unusual athlete opposite DeAndre Hopkins, who's one of, in the

799
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:13,080
Speaker 1: best ways, the most unusual athletes in the NFL. Watch out.

800
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,759
Speaker 1: How did J J. Watt look? Well? I think J. J.

801
00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 1: Watt did all he could to get out here for

802
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 1: Week one, but this was not the defensive player of

803
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:22,640
Speaker 1: the year. J J. Watt not a lot of pressure,

804
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:27,319
Speaker 1: and I mean honestly a lot. He he played a bunch,

805
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:28,920
Speaker 1: but it was not it was It was just a

806
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:30,720
Speaker 1: matter of him not being the guy that you're normal

807
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,799
Speaker 1: used to seeing the other story across the field. All

808
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:36,879
Speaker 1: Sean Jeffrey had a great game. And really, this Bears team,

809
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:41,120
Speaker 1: which I ripped on Thursday's podcast, they hung in here.

810
00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:43,879
Speaker 1: They hung in here for much longer than I thought

811
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,120
Speaker 1: they would. And I don't think that they're gonna be

812
00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:50,600
Speaker 1: uh especially frisky team, but they are this John Foxy

813
00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 1: type team that's gonna hang around in certain games. Entered

814
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:55,359
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter with the lead, it looks like they did.

815
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:57,400
Speaker 1: And their offensive line is a mess, but they you

816
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,319
Speaker 1: know they I'm not I'm not in love with their game.

817
00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 1: But but the all show on Jeffrey thing. If they

818
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 1: can keep him going, they can they can make plays.

819
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:07,200
Speaker 1: Blown breakout season three QB hits, tackle, two tackles for

820
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:09,520
Speaker 1: last in a sack in Week one. All right, let's

821
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:15,960
Speaker 1: move on all hell. A J. Green, the underappreciated superstar

822
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:20,720
Speaker 1: A J. Green single handedly uh save the Bengals today,

823
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:22,920
Speaker 1: who were outplayed in so many ways by the New

824
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:25,440
Speaker 1: York Jets in the meadow Lands. But Green kept on

825
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 1: making plays with mostly Durell reevus and coverage. I should

826
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:32,640
Speaker 1: be noted twelve for one eighty and a touchdown for

827
00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:36,880
Speaker 1: A J. Green and a big reception late in the

828
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:39,480
Speaker 1: fourth quarter. That's set up a field goal by Mike Nugent.

829
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:43,279
Speaker 1: That was the difference in the game. Two Bengals over

830
00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:46,359
Speaker 1: the Jets. And it was a game that, like I said,

831
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:48,280
Speaker 1: the Jets should have won this game. They had seven

832
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 1: sacks of uh Andy Dalton, and I give Andy Dalton

833
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:54,160
Speaker 1: a lot of credit to when a quarterback gets sacks

834
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 1: seven times, including five times in the first half. Some

835
00:40:56,719 --> 00:40:58,839
Speaker 1: guys that you know, not have their eyes down field,

836
00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:01,000
Speaker 1: their look a little happy in the pocket. He didn't

837
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:02,759
Speaker 1: look like any of that. He played a very good

838
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:05,960
Speaker 1: game after a slow start and lead them to the

839
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,640
Speaker 1: go ahead and game winning field goal. And uh on

840
00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 1: that Jets defensive line which could be scary, by the way,

841
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:14,839
Speaker 1: because Sheldon Richardson suspended this week and Steve McClendon, who

842
00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:17,239
Speaker 1: was the replacement for Snacks uh two and a half

843
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:20,560
Speaker 1: sacks Leonard Williams and making the lead candidate uh here

844
00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 1: in the NFL dot Com around the NFL page two

845
00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:26,359
Speaker 1: sacks all over the look like Geno Atkins, and Geno

846
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:27,960
Speaker 1: Atkins was playing in the game, he looked more like

847
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:32,520
Speaker 1: Geno Atkins. But ten QB hits and seven sacks absolutely

848
00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:35,120
Speaker 1: no reason the Jets let this get away. And nine

849
00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:37,600
Speaker 1: tackles for last two. That's I really feel like Andy

850
00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 1: Dalton has turned the corner in his career. I think

851
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:42,960
Speaker 1: he has to. I mean he the Jets absolutely were

852
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:45,879
Speaker 1: assaulting him very early. He threw a bad pick when

853
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,319
Speaker 1: he was under duress, but he just hung in the game.

854
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:52,000
Speaker 1: And I listen, this is a good team. The Bengals

855
00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:54,239
Speaker 1: are very good team. So as a Jets fan, you

856
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,520
Speaker 1: you you chalk it up to you know, you just

857
00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:58,640
Speaker 1: got beat on a late kick. But at the same time,

858
00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:01,440
Speaker 1: in this stretch of games, six games where they need

859
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:03,680
Speaker 1: to win three of them to be have a pulse

860
00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:05,520
Speaker 1: going into the second half, to give one away at

861
00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:07,719
Speaker 1: home like this. Yeah, And I was sitting next to

862
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:09,520
Speaker 1: you all day and I could tell that you really

863
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:12,959
Speaker 1: really wanted and needed this win. Because here's what's coming

864
00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:16,239
Speaker 1: up for the New York Jets, the Bills, the chief

865
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:18,880
Speaker 1: in a short week in Buffalo, right, So forget the Bills.

866
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 1: That's not the hardest thing the world. But Chiefs, Seahawks, Steelers,

867
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:25,520
Speaker 1: and Cardinals are your four games after That's why where

868
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:29,360
Speaker 1: there You needed to win that game today Because the Bills,

869
00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:31,400
Speaker 1: they might not be a great team, but they swept

870
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:33,360
Speaker 1: the Jets last year and on a short week on

871
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:35,480
Speaker 1: the road when the Bills lost in Week one, that's

872
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:37,400
Speaker 1: a very tough game. You know who I need to

873
00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:40,640
Speaker 1: check in with, uh because living out in l A,

874
00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:42,600
Speaker 1: I don't have a lot of people to vent to

875
00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:44,120
Speaker 1: about the Jets, and not a lot of Jet fans

876
00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:46,600
Speaker 1: in the office. So I'd like to, you know, talk

877
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:48,640
Speaker 1: to my dad, Keith. So you guys have all met,

878
00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:53,120
Speaker 1: and Dad likes to leave me a voice milks. You

879
00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:55,759
Speaker 1: knows I'm busy on Sunday, So I figured, why don't

880
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:58,839
Speaker 1: we hear from Keith hands this long time Jet fan

881
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:02,400
Speaker 1: UH his favorite player Joe Namath growing up. In fact,

882
00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:06,440
Speaker 1: my dad once UH went to the old hofstro training

883
00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:09,719
Speaker 1: camp UM with a buddy UH one summer and I

884
00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:13,239
Speaker 1: think or so and saw Joe Willie sneaking in UH

885
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 1: drunk with a teammate right before curfew, and UM, so

886
00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:18,880
Speaker 1: my dad goes way back with the Jets. A lot

887
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:20,879
Speaker 1: of suffering. Here's what he had to say about the game.

888
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:26,239
Speaker 1: Here's my review of the Jets angles one failure in

889
00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:29,840
Speaker 1: the red zone. Sure able to look at score in

890
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:31,640
Speaker 1: the red zone and a number of times they were

891
00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:33,879
Speaker 1: down there. They would have this game wouldn't even been close.

892
00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:38,080
Speaker 1: Number two full costs and four points. Next three big

893
00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:42,000
Speaker 1: dropped by Marshal at midfield at the end, followed by

894
00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:47,520
Speaker 1: Fitzpatrickson's interception. So the offense failed when they had basically

895
00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:50,439
Speaker 1: fifty six seconds to get within field will range, which

896
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:53,960
Speaker 1: they should have been able to do before offensive play

897
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 1: calling in the red zone. The imagination now and then

898
00:43:56,680 --> 00:43:59,279
Speaker 1: was terrible today. And then the last thing, and I

899
00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:02,879
Speaker 1: think the biggest thing was the defense, which played great

900
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:05,200
Speaker 1: in terms of getting a lot of sacks and some

901
00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:07,880
Speaker 1: stuffs on a run. But the big thing is Cincinnati

902
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:11,360
Speaker 1: did the screen that was successful when Green got a

903
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:13,880
Speaker 1: hundred and eighty odds, which for the most part was

904
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:17,719
Speaker 1: done on just screens. So that's a review of the

905
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:21,600
Speaker 1: game we had lost for the Jets opening day. I

906
00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:23,480
Speaker 1: feel for your dad. I mean, I hanging out with

907
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:25,360
Speaker 1: your dad one time before the Super Bowl that he

908
00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:27,720
Speaker 1: went to and we went this was in New Orleans

909
00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:29,520
Speaker 1: and we went out for drinks and we and I

910
00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:31,400
Speaker 1: tried to explain how harder this to be a Browns fan,

911
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:33,319
Speaker 1: but hearing your dad talked about the Jets and how

912
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:35,440
Speaker 1: hard it's been for him going back way back when

913
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:38,600
Speaker 1: I mean this, he's actually his behavior is very good

914
00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:40,680
Speaker 1: here because I'm sure he's quite quite irritating. I think

915
00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:43,200
Speaker 1: Dan's gotta be a little worried that Keith analysis just

916
00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:48,759
Speaker 1: in overwhelming. Dan's Jets analysis absolutely filled in everything better

917
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:51,279
Speaker 1: than I could. So my dad, my dad's been through

918
00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:55,120
Speaker 1: it all with Darrelle Revis in coverage a j Green

919
00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:58,319
Speaker 1: ten of ten for fifty two yards and a TV

920
00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:02,200
Speaker 1: and a perfect three quarterback rating for a while. Yeah,

921
00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:05,600
Speaker 1: we allowed to be a concerned about reasons absolutely because

922
00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:07,839
Speaker 1: I mean the fifty four yard touchdown, which is how

923
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:10,840
Speaker 1: Cincinnati got on the board. That was a miscommunication in

924
00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:12,800
Speaker 1: the secondary. He thought he had safety help and the

925
00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:15,520
Speaker 1: safety kind of froze. So that wasn't all on Rivas.

926
00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 1: But in the old days, Revis would have taken care

927
00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:20,080
Speaker 1: of it anyway. Wanted to need the safety and the

928
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 1: reception at the end that allowed uh Nugent to have

929
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,319
Speaker 1: a forty five yard kick instead of a fifty fifty

930
00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:27,839
Speaker 1: three yard kick. Because just because what we saw last year,

931
00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:30,080
Speaker 1: and I hope there was the risk injury last year,

932
00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:33,239
Speaker 1: but it looks like it's a situation where and Green

933
00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:35,239
Speaker 1: got the reception to put them in better range. It

934
00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:38,320
Speaker 1: looks like Revs just isn't at that level anymore, and

935
00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:40,800
Speaker 1: he's gonna not. There's no more Revs island against the

936
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:43,839
Speaker 1: level quarterback wide receiver at that level. It's just those

937
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:45,719
Speaker 1: days are over. This season is set up to be

938
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:47,920
Speaker 1: the A J. Green season because of the lack of

939
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:50,640
Speaker 1: options and just the point of his career. In the

940
00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:53,560
Speaker 1: point of Andy Dalton's career, he has a great chance

941
00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:55,279
Speaker 1: to lead the league in receiving and just be in

942
00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:57,520
Speaker 1: the mix. It's criminal that he's never mentioned in the

943
00:45:57,600 --> 00:46:00,960
Speaker 1: conversations with Antonio Browns and Julio Joe. Absolutely, And you know,

944
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:02,360
Speaker 1: I was thinking watching the end of the game, you

945
00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:05,040
Speaker 1: now sort of expect Andy Dalton and the Bengals to

946
00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:07,520
Speaker 1: win these games late or to make the drive late

947
00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:09,680
Speaker 1: because he did it so many times first half of

948
00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:12,320
Speaker 1: the last year. So different than the Cincinnati Bengals that

949
00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:14,839
Speaker 1: I've known for thirty years or forty years. And one

950
00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:17,839
Speaker 1: last note in the Bengals defense, which played very well,

951
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:20,480
Speaker 1: Brandon Marshall and Eric Decker, who were the best tandem

952
00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:22,480
Speaker 1: in the league, I thought last year held to five

953
00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:26,440
Speaker 1: catches in about sixty yards and Marshall, as my dad reference,

954
00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:29,160
Speaker 1: had a terrible drop in that last possession. That stuff happens.

955
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:32,160
Speaker 1: That's a good defense. No matter who's coaching under Marvin Lewis,

956
00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:35,920
Speaker 1: their secondary always plays well. That's a good team. I

957
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:39,680
Speaker 1: think this could be the year was could come to

958
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:41,640
Speaker 1: come on. They were like eleven and oh last year

959
00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:43,239
Speaker 1: and everyone thought they were like one of the best

960
00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:45,920
Speaker 1: teams in the NFL. Let's okay, let's talk again in January.

961
00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:49,359
Speaker 1: All right, let's move on. Oh. Disaster for the San

962
00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 1: Diego Chargers, who jumped out to a twenty one three

963
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:56,960
Speaker 1: on the road in Kansas City. A shocking situation where UH.

964
00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:59,520
Speaker 1: For a long stretch in this game, this looked like

965
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:03,400
Speaker 1: a game that was UH in San Diego's hands for

966
00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:05,480
Speaker 1: a big the upset of the upset of the week.

967
00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:09,280
Speaker 1: Then disaster strikes first off, fourth year wide out Keenan Allen,

968
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:12,000
Speaker 1: who when he's on the field is almost impossible to

969
00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:14,759
Speaker 1: cover as we've seen when he's healthy. He goes down

970
00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:17,120
Speaker 1: with a non contact knee injury and there's one of

971
00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:18,840
Speaker 1: those bad ones where the cart comes out and the

972
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:22,120
Speaker 1: players crying as he's getting carded out. As of this podcast,

973
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:24,400
Speaker 1: we don't know how bad it is, but I certainly

974
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:26,560
Speaker 1: would not be surprised if that's the last time we

975
00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:29,640
Speaker 1: see Keenan Allen. And then, to compound matters for the Chargers,

976
00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:33,480
Speaker 1: they blow the game. Alex Smith leads the Chiefs all

977
00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:36,839
Speaker 1: the way back with a late touchdown uh and then

978
00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:40,839
Speaker 1: in overtime Smith goes in on a design run play

979
00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:44,279
Speaker 1: a thirty three twenty seven win for the Chiefs over

980
00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:47,600
Speaker 1: the Chargers, and like I said, mark a crushing loss

981
00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:50,600
Speaker 1: for the Charges. Whore not only lose a golden opportunity

982
00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:52,879
Speaker 1: to set the tone for the season in a beautiful way,

983
00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:55,279
Speaker 1: they might have lost one of the most important players. Yeah.

984
00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:57,600
Speaker 1: I mean, you talk about what teams do all off

985
00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:00,680
Speaker 1: season is you add players and try you come up

986
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:03,120
Speaker 1: with your philosophy on offense. And the whole plan here

987
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:07,080
Speaker 1: was to have Keenan Allen paired with Travis Benjamin. You

988
00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:09,400
Speaker 1: have Keenan Allen, who's your do everything guy, and Travis

989
00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:12,719
Speaker 1: Benjamin who's your deep threat that takes you know, defensive

990
00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:16,360
Speaker 1: guys and takes nail DeAndre Hopkins and Will Fuller exactly.

991
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:18,400
Speaker 1: And now, and I can tell you this from experience,

992
00:48:18,440 --> 00:48:20,400
Speaker 1: Travis Benjamin is a talent and athlete, but he is

993
00:48:20,440 --> 00:48:23,840
Speaker 1: not a number one receiver. Seven catches for thirty two yards.

994
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:27,160
Speaker 1: It's it's not a good situation, and it the kind

995
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:30,440
Speaker 1: of things that happened today completely overshadows what was a

996
00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:33,360
Speaker 1: really nice game by Melvin Gordon and what looked like

997
00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:37,120
Speaker 1: gate a massive uprising for the Chargers. Instead, it's a

998
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:40,040
Speaker 1: crushing loss. Gotta be one of the biggest comeback losses

999
00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:43,400
Speaker 1: they've ever Nobody is smarting right now, worse than the Chargers.

1000
00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:46,160
Speaker 1: You were gonna tomorrow, feeling like a bomb went off. Well,

1001
00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:49,520
Speaker 1: the theme to me and a lot of these games

1002
00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:53,080
Speaker 1: was teams the way they were last year. That's how

1003
00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:55,799
Speaker 1: they were a lot of times today. The Bengals come

1004
00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:57,880
Speaker 1: back to win a game, the Seahawks find a way

1005
00:48:57,920 --> 00:48:59,960
Speaker 1: to win close, the Broncos had that late game Matt.

1006
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:02,920
Speaker 1: The Chargers think, think they're in good shape, and what

1007
00:49:03,160 --> 00:49:07,280
Speaker 1: happens injuries and just a calamity loss that you can't believe.

1008
00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:10,760
Speaker 1: To just feel like, uh, it's all starting over again,

1009
00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:13,440
Speaker 1: has to be so disappointing if you're a Chargers fan.

1010
00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:15,680
Speaker 1: Jamal Charles didn't playing this game either, as we know,

1011
00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:19,000
Speaker 1: and Spencer wear is proving himself over and over again

1012
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:21,440
Speaker 1: as a guy that could be a starter for almost

1013
00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:23,759
Speaker 1: any team in the league. He had up eleven uh

1014
00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:26,200
Speaker 1: carries for seventy yards and a touchdown. That's an average

1015
00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:28,000
Speaker 1: of almost six and a half yards to carry and

1016
00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:30,920
Speaker 1: then receiving, he was targeted eight times, seven catches for

1017
00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:33,439
Speaker 1: a hundred and twenty nine yards. I mean, this guy

1018
00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:36,359
Speaker 1: is a really talented guy. And when Jamal Charles comes back,

1019
00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:38,600
Speaker 1: I know this guy, Jamal Charles is an all time

1020
00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:40,480
Speaker 1: type player. There's no way that he's not gonna be

1021
00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:43,200
Speaker 1: splitting carries. Yeah, I agree with you. He's gonna be

1022
00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:46,239
Speaker 1: splitting carries. He's gonna be east back in and real quick.

1023
00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:49,440
Speaker 1: On Keenan Allen. There are never in the NFL more

1024
00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:51,719
Speaker 1: than ten or twelve guys at a time who are

1025
00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:55,600
Speaker 1: legitimate number one receivers, which means draw and beat double coverage,

1026
00:49:55,840 --> 00:49:57,520
Speaker 1: come up big and third down, come up big in

1027
00:49:57,560 --> 00:49:59,840
Speaker 1: the red zone, and make plays down the field. Keenan

1028
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:02,000
Speaker 1: Allen is one of those guys. And if you look

1029
00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:05,520
Speaker 1: at Philip Rivers without him, he's nineteen and nineteen with

1030
00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:08,160
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen in the lineup three and eight with Keenan

1031
00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:11,360
Speaker 1: Allen on the sideline. His passer ratings eight teen points

1032
00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:14,959
Speaker 1: better with Keenan Allen in the lineup last Johnson either.

1033
00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:16,880
Speaker 1: So they have a lack of depth there. They do.

1034
00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:19,320
Speaker 1: And last year in ninety yards more per game with

1035
00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:22,279
Speaker 1: Allen in the lineup was a centerpiece for them. You

1036
00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:25,200
Speaker 1: shouldn't have him concerned at all about the Chiefs getting

1037
00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:26,840
Speaker 1: down the way they did in this game. That's not

1038
00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:28,920
Speaker 1: the Chiefs from last It's a week it, you know,

1039
00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:31,120
Speaker 1: the Chiefs especially, you can say this it's week one.

1040
00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:34,160
Speaker 1: They have been blown out by some bad teams in

1041
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:37,000
Speaker 1: Week one over the last three or four years, including

1042
00:50:37,040 --> 00:50:40,000
Speaker 1: the Titans a couple of years ago. And and I

1043
00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:42,879
Speaker 1: just saw Chiefs fans you know, tweeted basically, oh it's

1044
00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:45,200
Speaker 1: Week one disaster all every It's tough to tell. I mean,

1045
00:50:45,239 --> 00:50:47,280
Speaker 1: I tend to think with these the week ones sometimes

1046
00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:49,160
Speaker 1: in the second half, these players aren't used to playing

1047
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:51,400
Speaker 1: so much, like maybe it's a sign that the Chargers

1048
00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:53,920
Speaker 1: defense has a little something. I'm not giving up on them.

1049
00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:57,280
Speaker 1: And they just ended up wilting against a powerful team

1050
00:50:57,320 --> 00:51:00,600
Speaker 1: on the road that had a lot of snaps. Our

1051
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:02,759
Speaker 1: periscope has been going up and down. We were up

1052
00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:05,440
Speaker 1: to viewers at one point that was cool. You know,

1053
00:51:05,520 --> 00:51:09,480
Speaker 1: we're we got people making anti Semitic jokes against me.

1054
00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:12,719
Speaker 1: It's it's not that's that's unacceptable. But I noticed that

1055
00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:16,480
Speaker 1: that Irish came in here at one point for his

1056
00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:19,360
Speaker 1: so called Easter egg and the numbers dipped significantly. So

1057
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:23,040
Speaker 1: let's not try that act again. It out again by

1058
00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:25,120
Speaker 1: fifty people. A dipped when I did that. I just

1059
00:51:25,239 --> 00:51:29,480
Speaker 1: want to say, anybody that's affiliated with the KKK or

1060
00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:31,719
Speaker 1: any other hate group, you're not welcome to our Paris

1061
00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:34,240
Speaker 1: not at all. Or if you just have negative feelings

1062
00:51:34,280 --> 00:51:36,839
Speaker 1: about people based on their race or Creed, I want

1063
00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:40,000
Speaker 1: you out a or create the band. If you like Creed,

1064
00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:46,319
Speaker 1: you're out beat. It like my sacrifice when you who

1065
00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:51,680
Speaker 1: with me that, Now the Paris Grove crowd gets to

1066
00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:55,719
Speaker 1: look at Greg's body language with free I'm a hair

1067
00:51:55,960 --> 00:52:00,560
Speaker 1: pleas be think that's a lyric, but you know the

1068
00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:03,560
Speaker 1: Creed lyrics pretty well. Listen. I was of that generation.

1069
00:52:04,120 --> 00:52:06,040
Speaker 1: You were in your own world. Say, oh, you know,

1070
00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:08,560
Speaker 1: I was in New Orleans. It was, you know, very

1071
00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:10,960
Speaker 1: cool hip hop culture. I don't know what's going on

1072
00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:13,399
Speaker 1: in the mainstream. I was like a twenty year old

1073
00:52:13,480 --> 00:52:15,959
Speaker 1: kid that was a round creed at all times, whether

1074
00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:18,160
Speaker 1: I wanted it or not. Take it easy, bro, you

1075
00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:21,400
Speaker 1: know well you you know, you just you threw that

1076
00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:23,960
Speaker 1: at me. I had come back a little bit, but

1077
00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:25,759
Speaker 1: I don't you know, I would never make fun of

1078
00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:30,120
Speaker 1: your your creed. I see what you did, I see

1079
00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:34,160
Speaker 1: what you did there. All right, let's move on. Let's

1080
00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:37,360
Speaker 1: put the train back on the old tracks, fellas, and

1081
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:40,400
Speaker 1: let's talk about a team that that should not be

1082
00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:43,840
Speaker 1: too proud of themselves. Uh. The Seattle Seahawks, who to me,

1083
00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:46,480
Speaker 1: you take care of business week one in your building

1084
00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:49,520
Speaker 1: against the flood Miami Dolphins. Team take the gift from

1085
00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:52,200
Speaker 1: the schedule makers, go win the football game. But here

1086
00:52:52,239 --> 00:52:54,440
Speaker 1: they were, with one minute to play, they had not

1087
00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:58,160
Speaker 1: scored a touchdown. Uh, and then what happens? Russell Wilson

1088
00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:02,240
Speaker 1: banged up UH with a lower leg injury. He responds

1089
00:53:02,280 --> 00:53:04,920
Speaker 1: to a Ryan tannehill eighty six yard go ahead touchdown

1090
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:07,520
Speaker 1: drive with one of his own fourteen play seventy five

1091
00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:10,719
Speaker 1: yards that culminated with this. That's a cute up eight

1092
00:53:10,960 --> 00:53:14,200
Speaker 1: second and goal from the one with forty five seconds left.

1093
00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:18,120
Speaker 1: The Dolphins leading by four Seattle second a goal from

1094
00:53:18,160 --> 00:53:22,920
Speaker 1: the one, Wilson blobs it up to the inside Catwood touchdown,

1095
00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:26,480
Speaker 1: touchdown Seattle and to go back in front with thirty

1096
00:53:26,560 --> 00:53:30,279
Speaker 1: one second tribat. The final score was twelve to ten.

1097
00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:33,439
Speaker 1: The Seahawks hold off the Dolphins. Will we look into

1098
00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:37,279
Speaker 1: this game, Greg, I think West is in the best

1099
00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:39,480
Speaker 1: position to tell you he watched it and mean, I

1100
00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:42,240
Speaker 1: still watched the end of this game, and I had thoughts.

1101
00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:46,840
Speaker 1: Then just hold those thoughts inside because I want to

1102
00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:49,200
Speaker 1: hear him from West. First, he said the Seahawks shouldn't

1103
00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:51,680
Speaker 1: be proud of themselves, but Russell Wilson should because down

1104
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:54,719
Speaker 1: four with four minutes ago after Ryan Tannehill took the

1105
00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:57,880
Speaker 1: lead and playing on one leg essentially, Russell Wilson and

1106
00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:01,479
Speaker 1: his own touchdown drive made some plays and he really

1107
00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:04,560
Speaker 1: his mobility is a big part of his game. He

1108
00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:07,600
Speaker 1: didn't have that today for to two full quarters, two

1109
00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:10,120
Speaker 1: and a half quarters, I think, And to lead this

1110
00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:13,600
Speaker 1: team down with his offensive line really getting manhandled by

1111
00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:17,279
Speaker 1: the especially on the interior of the offensive line being

1112
00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:19,680
Speaker 1: manhandled by the Dolphins, it was it was a strong showing,

1113
00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:23,759
Speaker 1: uh for a guy who we don't whether you like

1114
00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:27,040
Speaker 1: the label or not. He's just a winner. M Yeah.

1115
00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:29,080
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, Seattle is another team that in

1116
00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:32,319
Speaker 1: Week one. They've had some issues early in the season two,

1117
00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:34,759
Speaker 1: and I think that to get out of here with

1118
00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:37,719
Speaker 1: a win with a hurt quarterback and the way that

1119
00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:39,480
Speaker 1: they did it when they got down and they scored,

1120
00:54:39,640 --> 00:54:42,520
Speaker 1: they gave Miami zero chance to get back in this game.

1121
00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:44,600
Speaker 1: With the way that they squeezed the clock out. It

1122
00:54:44,719 --> 00:54:47,479
Speaker 1: was it's you know, this could have been really really

1123
00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:50,759
Speaker 1: ugly fall to Miami. They're they're not worried. I mean,

1124
00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:52,600
Speaker 1: I'm sure that coaching staff is gonna have things they

1125
00:54:52,640 --> 00:54:55,239
Speaker 1: want to correct, especially on offense, but I don't think

1126
00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:58,480
Speaker 1: they're worried about how many points they were favored by

1127
00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:00,920
Speaker 1: or anything. They're thinking about the act. They got the

1128
00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:03,400
Speaker 1: ball with four minutes left, needing a touchdown to win,

1129
00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:05,239
Speaker 1: and you get it. That's a nice deposit in the

1130
00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:08,360
Speaker 1: old Mojo bank and the Seahawks. How many times have

1131
00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:10,680
Speaker 1: we seen this story with the way they win these games.

1132
00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:13,120
Speaker 1: It's just like it reminds me. I've said it before

1133
00:55:13,160 --> 00:55:14,920
Speaker 1: in this podcast. It reminds me so much of the

1134
00:55:14,960 --> 00:55:17,640
Speaker 1: early era Patriots and after a while. But you can't

1135
00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:20,360
Speaker 1: say it's luck. That's just what they do. How was

1136
00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:24,760
Speaker 1: seawoke looking Kristen Michael in his first game of the season, Thomas.

1137
00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:29,880
Speaker 1: They had almost an even distribution of carries between Kristen

1138
00:55:29,960 --> 00:55:32,840
Speaker 1: Michael and Thomas Rawles. It seemed Michael got most of

1139
00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:35,200
Speaker 1: the work early, Roles got a lot of the work

1140
00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:37,600
Speaker 1: in the third quarter. They finally turned back to Kristen

1141
00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:40,680
Speaker 1: Michael on the game winning drive. He dominated that drive

1142
00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:43,560
Speaker 1: as far as playing time goes, and he outplayed Roles,

1143
00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:45,960
Speaker 1: which is to be expected after Roles missed the preseason.

1144
00:55:46,520 --> 00:55:48,480
Speaker 1: This is a one two punch. We've heard Pete Carroll

1145
00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:50,640
Speaker 1: say that, and I expected to be the hot hand

1146
00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:53,960
Speaker 1: situation for basically the bulk of the year until one

1147
00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:56,279
Speaker 1: of these guys proves to be superior. But I thought

1148
00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:58,520
Speaker 1: Kristen Michael looked good and he had his longest run

1149
00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:01,000
Speaker 1: of day taken away by a penalty. He had four

1150
00:56:01,040 --> 00:56:02,839
Speaker 1: point four yards per carry. It probably would have been

1151
00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:04,920
Speaker 1: over five if not for that. I mean, Rawles was

1152
00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:07,160
Speaker 1: at two point seven yards percarry. I get the hot

1153
00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:09,959
Speaker 1: hand thing, and it's very clear that they're loyal to Rawles.

1154
00:56:10,040 --> 00:56:13,920
Speaker 1: That that last they trust. But with some running backs,

1155
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:16,160
Speaker 1: and you know most teams are running back by committee

1156
00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:18,520
Speaker 1: to some degree. But in terms of Michael, do do

1157
00:56:18,560 --> 00:56:20,239
Speaker 1: you think he's someone that if you pull him for

1158
00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:23,440
Speaker 1: twelve snap twelve carries a game versus letting him keep going,

1159
00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:25,839
Speaker 1: that you're not going to get the same guy. That's

1160
00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:29,840
Speaker 1: a good question. Their their styles are so different that Rawles, uh,

1161
00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:32,080
Speaker 1: he's that what do they describe him as a bowling

1162
00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:37,000
Speaker 1: ball full of butcher knives? I mean, he's he's and

1163
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 1: he looked amazing last year. He's gonna lower his shoulder

1164
00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:42,120
Speaker 1: in power through tackles, Kristen. Michael looks like he's shot

1165
00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:44,719
Speaker 1: out of a canon. He just full speed burst up

1166
00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:46,840
Speaker 1: the middle and that's how he ran to dates and

1167
00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:49,120
Speaker 1: every once in a while. One of the reasons they

1168
00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:52,160
Speaker 1: trust Rawles probably over Michael is he'll give you maybe

1169
00:56:52,160 --> 00:56:54,960
Speaker 1: a bone headed play. And then in the touchdown winning

1170
00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:59,160
Speaker 1: drive he blocked. He blocked an on coming Russia. He

1171
00:56:59,280 --> 00:57:02,120
Speaker 1: seems so out of his block against the rusher or

1172
00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:05,440
Speaker 1: unhappy with the guy that he starts staring the guy down. Meanwhile,

1173
00:57:05,520 --> 00:57:08,479
Speaker 1: Russell the ground passed, he blocks him to the ground.

1174
00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:10,879
Speaker 1: He stands over Meanwhile, Russell Wilson throws a screen pass,

1175
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:13,920
Speaker 1: it hits uh Michael and the soulder pads. I imagine

1176
00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:16,400
Speaker 1: they'll catch that in their team film stuff. Well he was.

1177
00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:19,160
Speaker 1: There was laughing going on between him and the sideline

1178
00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:21,320
Speaker 1: after night, they were like, what are you doing your clown? Uh?

1179
00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:24,760
Speaker 1: Should Dolphins fans feel good about this? I mean, it

1180
00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:27,000
Speaker 1: is kind of impressive to go there and do something

1181
00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:30,560
Speaker 1: abo they feel good about it. Kenny Stills have one

1182
00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:32,440
Speaker 1: of the worst drops. It was like a Clobe Kobe

1183
00:57:32,520 --> 00:57:35,640
Speaker 1: Fleaner level drop wide open would have been a seventy

1184
00:57:35,680 --> 00:57:38,280
Speaker 1: something your touchdown, probably no one on the screen, and

1185
00:57:38,360 --> 00:57:40,840
Speaker 1: he just dropped it in a game that ended twelve ten.

1186
00:57:41,400 --> 00:57:44,480
Speaker 1: You when you are an underdog on the road, when

1187
00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:46,560
Speaker 1: you those things happen and you lose the game, you

1188
00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:48,760
Speaker 1: just it kills you. Well, you can feel good about

1189
00:57:48,840 --> 00:57:51,240
Speaker 1: your defense if you're the Dolphins. They showed up today,

1190
00:57:51,320 --> 00:57:54,640
Speaker 1: but the wide receiver corps with what five minutes left

1191
00:57:54,680 --> 00:57:57,920
Speaker 1: in the game, they their wide receivers had ten yards

1192
00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:01,200
Speaker 1: on five catches. Well, DeVante Park is not there. He's

1193
00:58:01,200 --> 00:58:03,000
Speaker 1: not supposed to be there for a while. J J

1194
00:58:03,120 --> 00:58:05,560
Speaker 1: I didn't even make the trip because I gotta wonder

1195
00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:06,840
Speaker 1: if he'll be on the team and he's a healthy

1196
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:09,800
Speaker 1: scratching who knows. Harry Foster looked good. He did. He

1197
00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:13,280
Speaker 1: was less than three yards of carry according to the stats. Well,

1198
00:58:13,320 --> 00:58:15,480
Speaker 1: I'm telling you what, well how he played, he played

1199
00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:19,240
Speaker 1: well room run, but he had that old cutting ability

1200
00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:21,000
Speaker 1: that he had. What the Texans was on display today.

1201
00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:22,960
Speaker 1: I mean, if they're if their front line can be

1202
00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:25,240
Speaker 1: that dominant, you know we were. We talked a lot

1203
00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:28,400
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, maybe an m v P. This Dolphin secondary

1204
00:58:28,480 --> 00:58:30,240
Speaker 1: one of the worst in league, and yet they basically

1205
00:58:30,320 --> 00:58:32,160
Speaker 1: did the job. They certainly did enough to win. It

1206
00:58:32,400 --> 00:58:36,040
Speaker 1: also sounds like Seattle's secondary forget about the idea idea

1207
00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:37,720
Speaker 1: of them taking a step back. It seems like they

1208
00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:40,920
Speaker 1: shut this offense down today. Outside of that Kenny Stills

1209
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:45,640
Speaker 1: drop and the the game to go ahead touched on

1210
00:58:45,720 --> 00:58:48,280
Speaker 1: that Ryan Tannehill had that drive. They didn't play as

1211
00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:50,080
Speaker 1: well then, but for most of the game, you know,

1212
00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:57,120
Speaker 1: they were dominant. Let's move on, gentlemen, all right. The

1213
00:58:57,200 --> 00:59:01,480
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills headed to uh Baltimore to start their season. Rex, Ryan,

1214
00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:03,680
Speaker 1: it's been a house of harrors for Rex. He can't

1215
00:59:03,760 --> 00:59:07,040
Speaker 1: he kind of rose to prominence as a coordinator and

1216
00:59:07,120 --> 00:59:10,080
Speaker 1: defensive assistant with the Ravens, but has never beaten them,

1217
00:59:10,400 --> 00:59:12,400
Speaker 1: uh in his time with the Jets and Bills, And

1218
00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:16,440
Speaker 1: that didn't change a thirteen seven loss for the Bills.

1219
00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:20,560
Speaker 1: The Ravens really gave Tyrod Taylor a lot of trouble,

1220
00:59:20,880 --> 00:59:23,200
Speaker 1: holding the quarterback to just a hundred and eleven yards

1221
00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:26,720
Speaker 1: passing on fifteen of twenty two. And um, you know,

1222
00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:28,800
Speaker 1: I'll speak a little broadly on this one because I

1223
00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:30,480
Speaker 1: didn't really catch any of it, but I will say

1224
00:59:30,520 --> 00:59:34,200
Speaker 1: that that type of performance from Tyrod Taylor that that

1225
00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:37,840
Speaker 1: those were kind of peppered into last season two. And

1226
00:59:37,920 --> 00:59:39,640
Speaker 1: that's why I was so surprised when they did hand

1227
00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:41,440
Speaker 1: out the money. And I don't know how much was guaranteed,

1228
00:59:41,480 --> 00:59:46,240
Speaker 1: but uh, this type of performance, you're not moving your team.

1229
00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:48,200
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna put a little put a little heat

1230
00:59:48,240 --> 00:59:50,800
Speaker 1: on Tyrod here for in his first game after that

1231
00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:53,960
Speaker 1: big contract, that offense did apple absolutely nothing against the

1232
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:56,040
Speaker 1: team that is not this is not the two thousand Ravens.

1233
00:59:56,080 --> 00:59:58,880
Speaker 1: It's fair to do that because the Ravens said after

1234
00:59:58,920 --> 01:00:02,200
Speaker 1: the game, we wanted to make Tyrod Taylor a quarterback,

1235
01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:04,880
Speaker 1: meaning take his legs away. And what happened was the

1236
01:00:04,960 --> 01:00:08,640
Speaker 1: Ravens turn out their best game on defense in five years.

1237
01:00:08,680 --> 01:00:11,440
Speaker 1: As far as total yards hundred sixty total yards under

1238
01:00:11,520 --> 01:00:13,360
Speaker 1: sixty yards. They're the worst offense in the league for

1239
01:00:13,360 --> 01:00:16,920
Speaker 1: a week one Buffalo Yes, well and Sammy Watkins, who

1240
01:00:17,120 --> 01:00:19,520
Speaker 1: at some point needs to be a week to week

1241
01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:24,080
Speaker 1: big money receiver for this team forty three yards and

1242
01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:26,520
Speaker 1: it's it, doesn't you know, it wasn't like that the

1243
01:00:26,640 --> 01:00:29,840
Speaker 1: Ravens exploded either, but you got Mike Wallace making big

1244
01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:32,280
Speaker 1: plays in this game. What's the last time Mike Wallace

1245
01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:35,680
Speaker 1: had a sixty six yard touchdown or something in that realm?

1246
01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:39,600
Speaker 1: I mean, he's he's back to life. Six targets. It's

1247
01:00:39,760 --> 01:00:42,160
Speaker 1: it's just one game, but the Ravens are trying to

1248
01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:45,520
Speaker 1: rebuild that that winning sort of culture and it might

1249
01:00:45,560 --> 01:00:48,520
Speaker 1: not be the prettiest team in the world. But suddenly

1250
01:00:48,600 --> 01:00:50,680
Speaker 1: Dennis Pitt is back on the field. I remember, what

1251
01:00:50,760 --> 01:00:52,920
Speaker 1: a cool story. Great great to see him. He made

1252
01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:54,920
Speaker 1: a few plays and saying, oh, broside pairman is back

1253
01:00:54,960 --> 01:00:57,080
Speaker 1: on the field. Our first round picks finally back. Okay,

1254
01:00:57,120 --> 01:01:00,280
Speaker 1: Mike Wallace, this pick, this pickup might help. Joe Blaco

1255
01:01:00,440 --> 01:01:02,360
Speaker 1: is back from his torn a c l Terrell Suggs

1256
01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:04,720
Speaker 1: makes some some plays and it's it's something to feel

1257
01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:06,640
Speaker 1: good about. You win an ugly game and you move on.

1258
01:01:06,760 --> 01:01:08,520
Speaker 1: That's the type of thing the Ravens are used to doing.

1259
01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:10,840
Speaker 1: If Dennis Pitta played for the New York Giants, we

1260
01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:12,680
Speaker 1: would have written three stories per week about him for

1261
01:01:12,680 --> 01:01:14,800
Speaker 1: the last three years. Well we did write. I feel

1262
01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:17,280
Speaker 1: like I've written a lot of Dennis Pitted stories. Point take.

1263
01:01:17,440 --> 01:01:19,320
Speaker 1: He got a fraction of the stories of Victor Cruz.

1264
01:01:19,360 --> 01:01:21,440
Speaker 1: Did I want to watch? She's still throwing shade of

1265
01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:25,000
Speaker 1: Victor Cruz. People who write about Victor Cruz? What a

1266
01:01:25,080 --> 01:01:28,120
Speaker 1: great story about Victor Cruz gets back on the field,

1267
01:01:28,200 --> 01:01:30,480
Speaker 1: wins the game in Dallas on Week one. Sure there

1268
01:01:30,480 --> 01:01:33,080
Speaker 1: will be seventeen long forms this week about Victor Cruz.

1269
01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:35,959
Speaker 1: That's not nice, think pieces long forms all over the place.

1270
01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:39,400
Speaker 1: Another guy who's West New York slander mess in fairness.

1271
01:01:39,680 --> 01:01:42,320
Speaker 1: Another guy gets a lot of ink from US Digital

1272
01:01:42,400 --> 01:01:46,360
Speaker 1: in Steve Smith Sr. Nine targets in this game nineteen

1273
01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:49,560
Speaker 1: yards probably that probably means he was the least efficient receiver.

1274
01:01:49,640 --> 01:01:51,320
Speaker 1: And like I'm I'm looking forward to watch and see

1275
01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:53,200
Speaker 1: how that happened. Get you know, high game of six.

1276
01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:55,520
Speaker 1: So it's gonna take them some time maybe to get

1277
01:01:55,600 --> 01:01:57,480
Speaker 1: him back into the Smith's a Hall of Famer. He

1278
01:01:57,560 --> 01:02:00,400
Speaker 1: deserves the ink. Absolutely does that ever happen? Five catches

1279
01:02:00,480 --> 01:02:04,840
Speaker 1: for an average of three point eight yards. We trav Travis.

1280
01:02:04,880 --> 01:02:09,120
Speaker 1: Benjamin's attempting to capture those numbers out West. All right,

1281
01:02:09,200 --> 01:02:11,840
Speaker 1: that's uh, that's what's going on, and let's now move

1282
01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:25,560
Speaker 1: on to Sunday night football. It ain't easy being in

1283
01:02:25,600 --> 01:02:31,520
Speaker 1: a room filled with Patriots fans got Greg Greg from

1284
01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:35,120
Speaker 1: Martha's vineyards, so on that region makes sense to a

1285
01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:38,200
Speaker 1: break West who quit on his hometown team to become

1286
01:02:38,200 --> 01:02:41,800
Speaker 1: a bandwagon jopp down. Someone's a little salty. I don't

1287
01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:45,880
Speaker 1: hear lightning crashes or cards crashing in this one. Mark

1288
01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:47,640
Speaker 1: you know who's you know, kind of giving up on

1289
01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:51,840
Speaker 1: the Browns as a fish. I love bluing an organization.

1290
01:02:51,960 --> 01:02:56,080
Speaker 1: The Patriots are anyway, the Pats. Things go their way

1291
01:02:56,120 --> 01:02:58,440
Speaker 1: all the time. And it happened again on Sunday night.

1292
01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:02,840
Speaker 1: Chandler cana zero. This is a very makeable uh forty

1293
01:03:03,120 --> 01:03:06,120
Speaker 1: seven yard or was it uh late? With seconds to

1294
01:03:06,160 --> 01:03:09,200
Speaker 1: go in the game. The difference in a one win

1295
01:03:09,640 --> 01:03:13,240
Speaker 1: for the New England Patriots, who without Tom Brady and

1296
01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:19,480
Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski, manage to beat the Cardinals who could not

1297
01:03:20,320 --> 01:03:23,600
Speaker 1: could not get down the field. Uh close enough for

1298
01:03:23,640 --> 01:03:26,080
Speaker 1: the kicker to make an even easier kick. I mean,

1299
01:03:26,160 --> 01:03:28,440
Speaker 1: you gotta make that kick, Chandler. I'm very disappointed in you.

1300
01:03:28,720 --> 01:03:32,000
Speaker 1: So the Patriots are one to Oh Jimmy Garoppolo plays. Okay,

1301
01:03:32,120 --> 01:03:34,960
Speaker 1: he'll be painted as a god on, but that's just

1302
01:03:35,040 --> 01:03:38,840
Speaker 1: the way it is in this country of band wagon jumpers. Uh,

1303
01:03:39,200 --> 01:03:41,919
Speaker 1: here we go, take it away. I've never seen Dan

1304
01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:48,120
Speaker 1: so salty so uh taking it personally, But personally I'm

1305
01:03:48,160 --> 01:03:51,200
Speaker 1: just a real fan, that's all. Then, Jimmy Garoppolo, first

1306
01:03:51,200 --> 01:03:52,960
Speaker 1: of all, you you said people are gonna make him

1307
01:03:52,960 --> 01:03:54,840
Speaker 1: out to be great. What more do you want? He

1308
01:03:55,000 --> 01:03:58,280
Speaker 1: goes into Arizona, one of the most talented teams in

1309
01:03:58,400 --> 01:04:01,200
Speaker 1: the league. He get them to score I think almost

1310
01:04:01,280 --> 01:04:04,120
Speaker 1: on every second half drive, including a drive when they

1311
01:04:04,200 --> 01:04:06,920
Speaker 1: needed points to go ahead. And he doesn't have Nate

1312
01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:09,960
Speaker 1: Solder his left tackle, he doesn't have Gronk and he

1313
01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:12,680
Speaker 1: and he does everything you need to do. Even Christopher

1314
01:04:12,800 --> 01:04:16,000
Speaker 1: wesseleyn who has been doubting Garoppolo this whole time, was

1315
01:04:16,040 --> 01:04:18,280
Speaker 1: impressed by what he saw. If you can get a

1316
01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:21,840
Speaker 1: backup quarterback to play like that in the NFL, you're

1317
01:04:21,880 --> 01:04:25,440
Speaker 1: gonna win a lot of games. I you, listen, this

1318
01:04:25,680 --> 01:04:27,640
Speaker 1: was just a fun game. I know Dan is painting

1319
01:04:27,760 --> 01:04:31,000
Speaker 1: us all as Patriots fans, but it is. It was.

1320
01:04:31,280 --> 01:04:33,040
Speaker 1: I was rooting for the Cardinals, but that was a

1321
01:04:33,160 --> 01:04:36,959
Speaker 1: fun second half. I think both teams show well. Listen,

1322
01:04:37,000 --> 01:04:41,480
Speaker 1: I mean the Arizona Cardinals. Had they known the circumstance

1323
01:04:41,560 --> 01:04:43,200
Speaker 1: of this game months ago and who would be in

1324
01:04:43,280 --> 01:04:45,919
Speaker 1: and who would be out, to think they would lose

1325
01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:50,120
Speaker 1: this game, gotta win that game. Gotta win that game,

1326
01:04:50,200 --> 01:04:52,200
Speaker 1: you gotta you gotta make the kick and get out

1327
01:04:52,200 --> 01:04:53,760
Speaker 1: of there with a win. They didn't play very well,

1328
01:04:54,440 --> 01:04:56,680
Speaker 1: uh in this game. And the Patriots, and to the

1329
01:04:56,760 --> 01:05:01,080
Speaker 1: credit of the coaching staff and and Garoppolo, who played well. Uh,

1330
01:05:01,280 --> 01:05:03,200
Speaker 1: you know, they deserved the win. But at the same time,

1331
01:05:03,680 --> 01:05:06,760
Speaker 1: the Cardinals the mojo was lacking for much of this game,

1332
01:05:06,880 --> 01:05:09,600
Speaker 1: but then the second half they were making plays. David

1333
01:05:09,720 --> 01:05:14,360
Speaker 1: Johnson was making plays. It's of great throws. Larry Fitzgerald

1334
01:05:14,440 --> 01:05:19,080
Speaker 1: put on a show defense. They kept they kept the

1335
01:05:19,120 --> 01:05:20,840
Speaker 1: Patriots out of the endz Ande, but what they couldn't

1336
01:05:20,880 --> 01:05:23,240
Speaker 1: do is stopped them on third down. In the second half,

1337
01:05:23,320 --> 01:05:26,200
Speaker 1: the Patriots wasted a lot of time and they kicked

1338
01:05:26,520 --> 01:05:29,240
Speaker 1: field goals, and they were very productive on offense. Even

1339
01:05:29,240 --> 01:05:31,320
Speaker 1: though they weren't lighting up the scoreboard, they were moving

1340
01:05:31,360 --> 01:05:33,840
Speaker 1: the ball. I know this doesn't happen every time Larry

1341
01:05:33,880 --> 01:05:36,560
Speaker 1: FitzGeralds on national TV, but it seems like every time

1342
01:05:36,920 --> 01:05:39,480
Speaker 1: he's on national TV, he just puts together like the

1343
01:05:39,600 --> 01:05:41,320
Speaker 1: highlight film that you can use in his Hall of

1344
01:05:41,360 --> 01:05:43,840
Speaker 1: Fame well, and it reminds me of the Packers game

1345
01:05:43,920 --> 01:05:46,200
Speaker 1: two games ago for the Cardinals in the playoffs, where

1346
01:05:46,240 --> 01:05:51,040
Speaker 1: Larry Fitzgerald just decided to take over the contest and

1347
01:05:51,160 --> 01:05:54,040
Speaker 1: there was nothing he couldn't do. He can't kick the

1348
01:05:54,080 --> 01:05:56,480
Speaker 1: field goal though, that's the one thing he couldn't do well.

1349
01:05:56,600 --> 01:05:58,840
Speaker 1: They had the holding call. You know, there was a

1350
01:05:58,880 --> 01:06:02,840
Speaker 1: lot of strategy in terms of the time outs. Belichick

1351
01:06:03,080 --> 01:06:05,800
Speaker 1: used the time outs very strangely. If they had gotten

1352
01:06:05,840 --> 01:06:07,760
Speaker 1: the ball back, I think he would have been criticized.

1353
01:06:07,960 --> 01:06:11,600
Speaker 1: Arians used his time out strangely. But then Carson Palmer

1354
01:06:11,680 --> 01:06:15,280
Speaker 1: on third was a dart to Geron Brown. I mean,

1355
01:06:15,360 --> 01:06:17,520
Speaker 1: they made enough plays that you would want to see

1356
01:06:17,600 --> 01:06:19,600
Speaker 1: to win. I don't know if if you're a Cardinals fan,

1357
01:06:19,960 --> 01:06:23,680
Speaker 1: if you're overly concerned. But it's a home loss and

1358
01:06:23,760 --> 01:06:26,320
Speaker 1: they're in a tough division against Seattle and every game counts,

1359
01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:28,080
Speaker 1: I think you had to be a little bit concerned,

1360
01:06:28,640 --> 01:06:31,440
Speaker 1: especially the one position you've been talking about for a

1361
01:06:31,520 --> 01:06:34,240
Speaker 1: couple of months with them. Cornerback Brandon Williams is a

1362
01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:36,360
Speaker 1: problem out there. He might be a good player someday,

1363
01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:39,720
Speaker 1: but he's a liability right now. Well, this is a

1364
01:06:39,840 --> 01:06:42,600
Speaker 1: game where I think it helps the Patriots that they've

1365
01:06:42,600 --> 01:06:44,720
Speaker 1: been planning for this game for a while and I

1366
01:06:44,840 --> 01:06:48,440
Speaker 1: know they're missing players. But Garoppolo was put in a

1367
01:06:48,560 --> 01:06:51,080
Speaker 1: situation to succeed. Some of the plays to Hogan in

1368
01:06:51,120 --> 01:06:54,280
Speaker 1: the first half and and then Bennett, they were plays

1369
01:06:54,320 --> 01:06:56,040
Speaker 1: that were well designed. But you have to give him

1370
01:06:56,080 --> 01:06:58,479
Speaker 1: credit for getting out of trouble a lot of times

1371
01:06:58,520 --> 01:07:01,200
Speaker 1: when their the pocket was collapsing round. I thought Garoppolo

1372
01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:05,640
Speaker 1: was very poised. He made a number of big throws

1373
01:07:05,960 --> 01:07:08,160
Speaker 1: and the game would have been quite different at the end.

1374
01:07:08,400 --> 01:07:10,480
Speaker 1: There was a third down play where he escaped the

1375
01:07:10,520 --> 01:07:13,520
Speaker 1: pocket and was running towards the first down marker deep

1376
01:07:13,600 --> 01:07:15,960
Speaker 1: in Cardinals territory. He didn't get it. They had to

1377
01:07:16,040 --> 01:07:18,040
Speaker 1: kick the field goal. But had he snuck forward a

1378
01:07:18,120 --> 01:07:20,720
Speaker 1: few more yards and gotten the first down, Cardinals probably

1379
01:07:20,720 --> 01:07:23,040
Speaker 1: wouldn't have even gotten the opportunity kicked that field So

1380
01:07:23,200 --> 01:07:25,480
Speaker 1: many good players in this game, Dan, you have to

1381
01:07:25,560 --> 01:07:29,600
Speaker 1: at least enjoy it on some level for the football

1382
01:07:29,800 --> 01:07:31,520
Speaker 1: of it. Yes, I would have enjoyed it a lot

1383
01:07:31,600 --> 01:07:37,480
Speaker 1: more if a the Cardinals won. B Uh, if my

1384
01:07:37,600 --> 01:07:39,400
Speaker 1: team won today, then I could just be more like

1385
01:07:39,480 --> 01:07:42,000
Speaker 1: sitting back and enjoying it. But I need the Patriots

1386
01:07:42,080 --> 01:07:46,200
Speaker 1: the bomb during this rady absence. So them being handed

1387
01:07:46,800 --> 01:07:49,520
Speaker 1: victory on Sunday night in the week one by the

1388
01:07:49,560 --> 01:07:52,000
Speaker 1: football gods who apparently are not even keeping track of

1389
01:07:52,080 --> 01:07:55,520
Speaker 1: who gets all the breaks. A kick that you should

1390
01:07:55,560 --> 01:07:58,200
Speaker 1: just put straight down the middle and we all go

1391
01:07:58,360 --> 01:08:01,720
Speaker 1: home as winners. Oh what can I say? I mean

1392
01:08:01,840 --> 01:08:04,000
Speaker 1: some teams have all the luck, the Patriots and graduations. Well,

1393
01:08:04,040 --> 01:08:05,920
Speaker 1: where the luck comes in a little bit. Now, if

1394
01:08:05,960 --> 01:08:08,800
Speaker 1: you're the Patriots, this was the game everyone talked about

1395
01:08:08,880 --> 01:08:12,320
Speaker 1: all offseason. How do you possibly win in Arizona without

1396
01:08:12,360 --> 01:08:14,520
Speaker 1: Tom Brady in week one. Now you're home for the

1397
01:08:14,600 --> 01:08:18,479
Speaker 1: next three weeks against the Dolphins, the Texans, and the Bills.

1398
01:08:18,560 --> 01:08:20,800
Speaker 1: It is very possible. Everyone said you gotta get out

1399
01:08:20,840 --> 01:08:24,800
Speaker 1: of this Garoppolo situation. At least two and two, four

1400
01:08:24,840 --> 01:08:29,559
Speaker 1: and oh is a possibility. It's always if you're lucky

1401
01:08:29,960 --> 01:08:33,880
Speaker 1: Patriots man, you guys are excited for at all, It's

1402
01:08:33,920 --> 01:08:37,360
Speaker 1: easy to say two is very much possible to you.

1403
01:08:37,360 --> 01:08:39,920
Speaker 1: Wouldn't you certainly wouldn't expect it at this well, that

1404
01:08:39,960 --> 01:08:43,000
Speaker 1: would be disappointing. Gud it lose two games against the Dolphins,

1405
01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:44,800
Speaker 1: Texans and Bills, of course it would. It would be

1406
01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:47,240
Speaker 1: disappointing when when all three of those games are at home.

1407
01:08:47,320 --> 01:08:50,600
Speaker 1: But now there's tape on Garoppolo, people are gonna make adjustments.

1408
01:08:50,840 --> 01:08:53,479
Speaker 1: Things are gonna change. This seemed to be a game

1409
01:08:53,520 --> 01:08:55,639
Speaker 1: where they really played their a game. But I don't

1410
01:08:55,640 --> 01:08:57,640
Speaker 1: think they were lucky in any way because if if

1411
01:08:57,680 --> 01:08:59,519
Speaker 1: you look at the two drives, the two teams back

1412
01:08:59,800 --> 01:09:02,320
Speaker 1: in fourth there even in total yards, there even in

1413
01:09:02,439 --> 01:09:04,880
Speaker 1: yards for play, that everything about this game were two

1414
01:09:04,960 --> 01:09:07,920
Speaker 1: teams that looked even, which is surprising when you're when

1415
01:09:07,960 --> 01:09:10,840
Speaker 1: you're missing Tom Brady, one head a kicker that made

1416
01:09:10,880 --> 01:09:12,920
Speaker 1: a fifty three yard or one had one that missed

1417
01:09:12,960 --> 01:09:15,680
Speaker 1: a makeable forty something yarder in two thousands sixteen. And

1418
01:09:15,920 --> 01:09:17,439
Speaker 1: I mean, I think the Patriots are of all the

1419
01:09:17,479 --> 01:09:19,680
Speaker 1: credit in the world. Then that's the danger now of

1420
01:09:19,960 --> 01:09:21,960
Speaker 1: everybody in the a f C. Because now you look

1421
01:09:22,000 --> 01:09:23,840
Speaker 1: at that schedule, like Mark, you're saying, there's no way

1422
01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:25,800
Speaker 1: they're gonna do any worse than two and two. So

1423
01:09:25,880 --> 01:09:28,439
Speaker 1: now they're okay. You lose that first game and then

1424
01:09:28,479 --> 01:09:30,920
Speaker 1: you start there's some panicking going on and then you think, oh,

1425
01:09:30,960 --> 01:09:33,920
Speaker 1: it's one in three possible, could be worse. Paths are

1426
01:09:33,960 --> 01:09:36,479
Speaker 1: gonna be okay on the page for the page it is.

1427
01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:38,680
Speaker 1: And the Patriots, he even had they lost this and

1428
01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:40,720
Speaker 1: I know you're not gonna like this comment. And they're

1429
01:09:40,720 --> 01:09:42,800
Speaker 1: not a team that does panic and they they just

1430
01:09:42,960 --> 01:09:45,280
Speaker 1: do things a little bit differently than than our teams.

1431
01:09:45,280 --> 01:09:47,080
Speaker 1: And as a Jets fan, I would say, you know,

1432
01:09:47,200 --> 01:09:49,040
Speaker 1: one option for you if it gets real bleak, is

1433
01:09:49,080 --> 01:09:51,200
Speaker 1: to do what I do, which is turn off your

1434
01:09:51,240 --> 01:09:54,760
Speaker 1: internal world entirely and have zero expectations. I can't the

1435
01:09:54,760 --> 01:09:57,160
Speaker 1: team you grew up rooting for. I can't. Yeah, I can't.

1436
01:09:57,520 --> 01:09:59,800
Speaker 1: You're in a total rebuild mode. So I get that.

1437
01:10:00,120 --> 01:10:02,559
Speaker 1: So you're able to be a little more detached. West

1438
01:10:02,640 --> 01:10:07,679
Speaker 1: quit on the Bengals now carrying that before before starting.

1439
01:10:07,840 --> 01:10:11,680
Speaker 1: That's the thing, up and down carrying that water. You

1440
01:10:11,800 --> 01:10:14,080
Speaker 1: got to get some video of of West doing this

1441
01:10:14,160 --> 01:10:17,479
Speaker 1: because of our motions are just corporate overlords decided we

1442
01:10:17,520 --> 01:10:22,800
Speaker 1: didn't need video of our show. Um. Yeah, so that's it, goodwin. Greg,

1443
01:10:22,800 --> 01:10:25,800
Speaker 1: You're you're happy. You're very happy man. Today. I was

1444
01:10:25,840 --> 01:10:28,760
Speaker 1: happy before that. Yes, this is this is this is

1445
01:10:28,840 --> 01:10:30,479
Speaker 1: kind of old I'll tell you something about Greg. By

1446
01:10:30,520 --> 01:10:32,800
Speaker 1: the way, this is an old school Patriots thing, like

1447
01:10:32,920 --> 01:10:35,519
Speaker 1: you'd like to see a situation where things are against them.

1448
01:10:35,600 --> 01:10:37,880
Speaker 1: You were open about the fact that you were excited

1449
01:10:37,920 --> 01:10:40,080
Speaker 1: to see what would happen with Croppolo for four weeks.

1450
01:10:40,120 --> 01:10:42,160
Speaker 1: I said that in April that I thought there's something

1451
01:10:42,160 --> 01:10:43,920
Speaker 1: about it that I'm curious. I want to see how

1452
01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:46,160
Speaker 1: they respond as a whole team. Greg, at one point

1453
01:10:46,360 --> 01:10:48,519
Speaker 1: while we were there, was like midway through the fourth quarter,

1454
01:10:48,920 --> 01:10:52,960
Speaker 1: started snapping at me and he was he was honking.

1455
01:10:53,000 --> 01:10:56,120
Speaker 1: He's like I was holding back about the Browns and Jets,

1456
01:10:56,160 --> 01:10:58,880
Speaker 1: and this is what I get in return when it's like,

1457
01:10:59,600 --> 01:11:01,960
Speaker 1: that's the like, by the way, I'm over here rooting

1458
01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:05,519
Speaker 1: for that. I was. I was pointing out a truth,

1459
01:11:05,840 --> 01:11:07,920
Speaker 1: which is that when the Jets and the Browns are on,

1460
01:11:08,080 --> 01:11:10,960
Speaker 1: we're sensitive enough. We're not We're not cat calling out

1461
01:11:11,000 --> 01:11:13,759
Speaker 1: in jah and making fun of bad plays. And that's

1462
01:11:13,800 --> 01:11:15,920
Speaker 1: because you guys are busy doing your own stuff. No,

1463
01:11:16,120 --> 01:11:19,439
Speaker 1: but like, I'm allowed to watch a game and be excited.

1464
01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:21,400
Speaker 1: But you were honking, which was showing you as a

1465
01:11:21,439 --> 01:11:23,880
Speaker 1: real fan, which was good. Like game I like this.

1466
01:11:24,040 --> 01:11:25,519
Speaker 1: I felt like, oh, it's so hard to be a

1467
01:11:25,560 --> 01:11:29,320
Speaker 1: Patriots fan. Well, hold on, I mean, let's talk one thing.

1468
01:11:29,400 --> 01:11:32,479
Speaker 1: This was the best week one we've seen since any

1469
01:11:32,560 --> 01:11:35,280
Speaker 1: of us have worked. Six games decided by two points

1470
01:11:35,360 --> 01:11:37,760
Speaker 1: or less. Would have been seven if there was a

1471
01:11:37,880 --> 01:11:42,240
Speaker 1: silly safety on laterals in Indianapolis, would have been seven games.

1472
01:11:42,280 --> 01:11:44,840
Speaker 1: So it really was seven games. So probably I think

1473
01:11:44,920 --> 01:11:47,599
Speaker 1: it goes without saying the most competitive weeks even count

1474
01:11:48,600 --> 01:11:52,000
Speaker 1: to three comeback or whatever. It was three by the

1475
01:11:52,120 --> 01:11:54,599
Speaker 1: Chiefs with which they want in overtime, which was another

1476
01:11:54,640 --> 01:11:59,120
Speaker 1: great game. Absolutely, So there, you know, listen, bad week

1477
01:11:59,520 --> 01:12:03,040
Speaker 1: for me personally, but a great week for watching the NFL.

1478
01:12:03,560 --> 01:12:06,639
Speaker 1: And uh, that's it. That's it for the Week one recap,

1479
01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:11,400
Speaker 1: which ends on a very sour note. Dan, It's only

1480
01:12:11,439 --> 01:12:13,360
Speaker 1: going to get worse from here. I know. Well, that's

1481
01:12:13,360 --> 01:12:17,040
Speaker 1: the thing. You start to have these realizations, boiler nightmares

1482
01:12:17,200 --> 01:12:19,840
Speaker 1: happening once again. Spoiler alert, Patriots are going to the

1483
01:12:19,880 --> 01:12:23,200
Speaker 1: super Bowl. I think we're looking at it a full

1484
01:12:23,439 --> 01:12:27,439
Speaker 1: prediction by Chris Wesling. The Patriots going to the super Bowl.

1485
01:12:28,280 --> 01:12:30,680
Speaker 1: I can't happen. One tonight that made their season. There

1486
01:12:30,840 --> 01:12:34,639
Speaker 1: were already there. It's over that. They are absolutely thirteen

1487
01:12:34,680 --> 01:12:37,080
Speaker 1: and three, fourteen and two. Same thing they do every year.

1488
01:12:37,640 --> 01:12:41,640
Speaker 1: It's done. Stamp it Tuesday. Next time you hear us,

1489
01:12:43,120 --> 01:12:52,080
Speaker 1: we will make our official nominations for the team eight. So, uh,

1490
01:12:52,800 --> 01:12:54,400
Speaker 1: you know, after Week one we have a little more

1491
01:12:54,479 --> 01:12:58,160
Speaker 1: to go off. I believe the Titans who are the favorite.

1492
01:12:58,160 --> 01:12:59,920
Speaker 1: I would still put the Titans of the favorite right now.

1493
01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:02,080
Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe not see what comes up on

1494
01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:04,280
Speaker 1: game pass. We'll watch game pass. You go down into

1495
01:13:04,280 --> 01:13:06,840
Speaker 1: your laboratory and do some findings. I will go down

1496
01:13:06,920 --> 01:13:09,439
Speaker 1: to my lab and I'll see what I find. Uh,

1497
01:13:10,080 --> 01:13:12,080
Speaker 1: but I will not be nominating the Titans. I can

1498
01:13:12,120 --> 01:13:15,720
Speaker 1: tell you that needs some options. Yeah, I agree, I'm

1499
01:13:15,720 --> 01:13:18,400
Speaker 1: gonna nominate I I support the Titans as an as

1500
01:13:18,439 --> 01:13:20,479
Speaker 1: an idea, but I'm gonna nominate a different team too.

1501
01:13:21,040 --> 01:13:23,960
Speaker 1: Great thanks to everyone that watch us in periscope, we

1502
01:13:24,120 --> 01:13:26,120
Speaker 1: did find out next next week we're gonna blow it

1503
01:13:26,160 --> 01:13:29,280
Speaker 1: out a little more and be a little more high quality.

1504
01:13:29,320 --> 01:13:31,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, we probably should have done it for

1505
01:13:31,040 --> 01:13:33,599
Speaker 1: this game recap two. But that will all that stuff

1506
01:13:33,640 --> 01:13:37,640
Speaker 1: we'll figure out, um in our attempt to reach you,

1507
01:13:38,280 --> 01:13:41,880
Speaker 1: the loyal listener slash viewer. Um. If if we're not

1508
01:13:41,880 --> 01:13:44,320
Speaker 1: gonna get help in this building, we're gonna do it ourselves.

1509
01:13:44,479 --> 01:13:46,559
Speaker 1: That's how we've been doing it from the start. All right,

1510
01:13:47,400 --> 01:13:52,439
Speaker 1: that's it for Sunday Night's edition of the Around the

1511
01:13:52,560 --> 01:13:55,200
Speaker 1: NFL podcast. That's fine, right, that's fine, right, I'll throw

1512
01:13:55,200 --> 01:13:59,360
Speaker 1: you that bone. Irish s sneaky Patriots fan. Yeah. Uh,

1513
01:14:00,240 --> 01:14:03,800
Speaker 1: Irish's dad actually told me that he's a Patriots and

1514
01:14:04,120 --> 01:14:07,840
Speaker 1: Giants fan, which I found at odds. It's impossible. How

1515
01:14:07,920 --> 01:14:10,040
Speaker 1: could one be a fan of both of those teams?

1516
01:14:10,320 --> 01:14:12,840
Speaker 1: Covering all your bases? That baby boomer stuff, you know

1517
01:14:12,880 --> 01:14:14,600
Speaker 1: what I mean? I don't get it, all right, and

1518
01:14:14,680 --> 01:14:18,839
Speaker 1: I have the real outro on it. Yeah, I get garbage.

1519
01:14:20,800 --> 01:14:23,080
