1 00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:13,080 Speaker 1: A spooky Halloween night ahead at MetLife Stadium. We're the 2 00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:16,239 Speaker 1: only thing scarier than Jets fans after Aaron Rodgers first 3 00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:19,920 Speaker 1: completion might be what's gonna happen starting tomorrow if they 4 00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:22,759 Speaker 1: lose the sixth game in a row. Judy Batists and 5 00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 1: Brian Baldinger have the latest on the field leading up 6 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 1: to kick off against CJ. Stroud and the Texas Lamar 7 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:33,159 Speaker 1: Jackson also given Ravens fans a scare absent for practice 8 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:34,280 Speaker 1: for a second straight day. 9 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 2: Is it rest? Is it the back the knee? 10 00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:39,319 Speaker 1: If you just need a little extra time to work 11 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:41,920 Speaker 1: on his Trent Dilferd costume. We'll tell you what they're 12 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:46,239 Speaker 1: saying in Baltimore about the reigning NFL MVP. Maybe the 13 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 1: scariest costume of all this year, Daniel Jones Jersey. Maybe 14 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 1: there one warned by Daniel Jones himself. But is it 15 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 1: time for the Giants to turn out the lights? You know, 16 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 1: before the teenagers starts showing up with rolls of tepee. 17 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: I'm not a pumpkin pod, so let's just start this 18 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 1: show before you all goest. This welcome inside with the 19 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:09,959 Speaker 1: Insiders alongside Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafalo and on the 20 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 1: field at MetLife Stadium at Judy and Batista, I am 21 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 1: Tom Pelaicero. Week nine in the NFL, let's go. It 22 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,480 Speaker 1: feels like an elimination game for the Jets. It feels 23 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 1: like a Texans team, based on their injuries at the 24 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: wide receiver position, has a lot of questions surrounding them 25 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 1: as well. Statue liberty not all that close to East broutherverb, 26 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,959 Speaker 1: but we'll let that part slide Prime video tonight, the 27 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,759 Speaker 1: Bats will be out. Hopefully it's not actually gonna look 28 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: like that inside the stadium, but you never know. Judy 29 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 1: looks pretty nice right here at this moment. What are 30 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: you looking for in this matchup as we get week 31 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 1: nine rolling, Well. 32 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 3: First of all, it is a beautiful, warm Halloween night 33 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 3: for football. 34 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 4: What are we looking for? 35 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 3: Well, you're looking for the Jets to salvage their season 36 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 3: somehow by getting a win two and six five losses 37 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 3: in a row. They've turned over about everything they could 38 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 3: possibly turn over, including today, they're going to have a 39 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 3: new kicker. Riley Patterson is going to be the kicker. 40 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:13,239 Speaker 3: Greg Zerline went on IR earlier this week, but listen, 41 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 3: the Jets are struggling. There's no way around it. Since 42 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,239 Speaker 3: they got rid of Robert Sala, they are zero to three. 43 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 3: The offense has been marginally better since they switched play callers, 44 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 3: the defense has actually taken a step back, especially in 45 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 3: the running game. That might mean we get a heavy 46 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 3: dose of Joe Mixon from the Texans tonight. It's worth 47 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 3: mentioning the Texans are six and two, but they certainly 48 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 3: have their share of adversity right now. Stefan Diggs the 49 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 3: receiver out for the season with an ACL tear, and 50 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 3: they are also without Nico Collins tonight, who is still 51 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:44,640 Speaker 3: on IR with a hamstring. 52 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 4: So C. J. 53 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 3: Stroud comes into this game without his top two wide receivers. 54 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 4: This is a do or die situation. 55 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 3: I feel like we've been saying that for the last 56 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 3: few weeks with the New York Jets, but this is 57 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 3: really do or die because if they drop to two 58 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 3: and seven, am I doing the correctly? They would have 59 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 3: to win out to get to ten wins. That is 60 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 3: a very tall order. And of course the music just 61 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 3: can't blasting on. 62 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 5: Yes, of course they love to do that there at 63 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 5: MetLife Stadium. We're in his seventy nine degrees right now 64 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 5: all around the area here in North Jersey. And I 65 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 5: say that because it is less than half that in 66 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:22,079 Speaker 5: Minnesota where Tom Pellisero lost power today because of a 67 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 5: blizzard on Halloween, so we got short sleeves. I'll be 68 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 5: out in shorts handing out candy in just a couple 69 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 5: of minutes. 70 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 2: Here. 71 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 5: The Jets looking for a few sweet traits here tonight 72 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 5: in this game. Alan mazzard Ian, as you reported earlier, 73 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 5: are going to be placed on IR has officially been 74 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 5: assuming four o'clock has officially been placed on injurr reserve, 75 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 5: so he's down for four games. But Devonte Adams is 76 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 5: there because Aaron Rodgers wanted him as well, so plenty 77 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 5: of receivers. This just feels like Judy, a get right 78 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 5: situation for the Jets, like backs against the wall. At 79 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 5: some point, they've got to play better than they have 80 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 5: been playing here. And if you win this game, i'mann 81 00:03:59,120 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 5: do it. 82 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 6: Do it. 83 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 5: If you win this game at Cardinals home against the Colts, 84 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 5: bye week to get right home against the Seahawks at 85 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 5: the I mean you look at the rest of the way. 86 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 2: There are winnable games here. 87 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 5: There are, but they just gotta What I want to 88 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,359 Speaker 5: see from the Jets, and I haven't seen it, is 89 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 5: they've got to play with an edge. 90 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 6: They look like they're just sleepwalking and everything they do. 91 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,479 Speaker 5: I want to see a Jets team that comes out 92 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 5: dictates things, plays physical football, plays fast football, maybe literally 93 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 5: plays fast go, no huddle, something like that. Just dictate 94 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 5: the tempo of this game. I believe that's what the 95 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 5: Jets want to do. 96 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 2: In this case. We'll see if they can do it 97 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 2: off the jump. 98 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, and that really has been their goal ever since 99 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 7: Jeff Obert took over as interim coach. Was you know, 100 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 7: they have that physicality on defense, can they match it 101 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 7: an offense? And you do it by the run game, 102 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 7: I mean, obviously that's one way to do it. You 103 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 7: could also be physical in the past game as well. 104 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 7: That's what they want to bring. They want to play 105 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 7: fast and they want to be physical. 106 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 8: You mentioned the energy. 107 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 7: When Devonte Adams came over here, it seemed to me 108 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 7: just based on his words, the words of his team 109 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 7: minutes that the first thing he identified was just they 110 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 7: were lacking juice, and you know, he tried to implore them, 111 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 7: tried to get it out of them. Tried to get 112 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 7: that effort on the field. 113 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 8: Last week. It sounded like practice was a little better 114 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 8: the game. 115 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 7: Maybe it was better, but they still didn't end up winning. 116 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 7: They need something, and so much of the problem here 117 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,239 Speaker 7: is they are talented. Woody Johnson saying this is among 118 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 7: the most talented rosters he has ever seen for the Jets. 119 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 7: It just hasn't translated to win. So you're right, Mike, 120 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 7: I think we all kind of do the same thing. 121 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 7: It's like, well, if they win here, they could just 122 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 7: win all the rest of their games. But to do that, 123 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 7: you have to win one game. That's how it has 124 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 7: to start. You have to win one, and then after 125 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 7: one you can win two, and then three is after that. 126 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 8: They have a long road ahead, but winningtons streak. 127 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: Avakis Ian is back on a Thursday night here. Listen, 128 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,840 Speaker 1: the offense has averaged over three or fifty yards per 129 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: game each of the last three weeks. Here, They've scored 130 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: at a decent clip. It would be better if they 131 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,479 Speaker 1: could actually make a kick. So Riley Patterson steps in now, 132 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: they'll try to find that juice. Who's this game to 133 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 1: a Texans team that does not have its top two 134 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,279 Speaker 1: wide receivers you have to think, really horrible what the 135 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: approach should be in the remaining four days leading up 136 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 1: to the trade deadline. The Packers, on the other hand, 137 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 1: have survived just about everything that's been thrown at him 138 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:18,359 Speaker 1: this season, including multiple injuries to Jordan Love, who was 139 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 1: back on the practice field today. This is video from 140 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: my old Green Bay Prescazette colleague Wes Hodkowincer now works 141 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,279 Speaker 1: for the Packers. Jordan Love out there. They got the 142 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: snow in the rain there too. It's that wintry miss 143 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: mix with like the big flakes. They're kind of heavy 144 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: and they're wet. Anyway, that's beside the point here. Jordan 145 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 1: Love back onto the field after suffering when an MRI 146 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 1: confirmed Ian is a relatively minor groin injury. They just 147 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: got to see how he responds to treatment. The fact 148 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 1: he's out there on a Thursday, I would think boats 149 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: pretty well for his chances being out there for a 150 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 1: game on Sunday against the Lives. 151 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 8: I was thinking the same thing. 152 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,119 Speaker 7: And look, you can see the positivity in those clips, 153 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,480 Speaker 7: the handshakes. That look's like a guy who is very 154 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 7: excited to be out in the field. Reading the body 155 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 7: language and handshakes. 156 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 8: Yes, I get it. 157 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 7: That looks like a guy who's really excited to be 158 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 7: on the field, and the fact that he is that. 159 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 7: Look at these, I mean, this is some stellar handshaking 160 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 7: and high fiving right here. That to me, the mobility 161 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 7: and the hips and the groin while doing those handshakes 162 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 7: is certainly something that bodes well for him playing. But 163 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 7: you're right, he's there on a Thursday. He is going 164 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 7: to push like crazy to play. The MRI came back 165 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 7: showing a relatively minor groinstrain. 166 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 8: This looks like a guy who has a very very 167 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 8: real chance of playing. We didn't get much from at Lafour. 168 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 7: He did his thing where he says limited is limited 169 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 7: because you know, de la four loves talking about injuries 170 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 7: whether or not someone is going to play. But I 171 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 7: would say this, if all goes well and he continues 172 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 7: along the path, he has been going pretty good chance 173 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 7: we see him in a huge game on something. 174 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: Well you remember the first time too, Not to go 175 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: too deep into the handshake thing here, but the first 176 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: week that Jordan Love got back out there after the 177 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: knee injury, it was just kind of like very tight 178 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: movements rolling out. 179 00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 2: This does look like the tone. 180 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 1: Of things is a little bit different here, and obviously 181 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,559 Speaker 1: he wants to play with everything that's on the line. 182 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 1: Jared Goff, the Lions quarterback, also is in line to 183 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 1: be out there on Sunday, even though he did not 184 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 1: practice on Wednesday. Got back on the field today full 185 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: participant according the injury report, which Mike based on Jared 186 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 1: Goff's own words, and the participation today need to erase 187 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: any doubts, if any existed about whether or not he's 188 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 1: going to be available. 189 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 5: He seems to be on pace to play on Sunday 190 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 5: and to continue potentially this torrid pace that he is on. 191 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,840 Speaker 5: I mean, the last four games, one hundred percent completion percentage, 192 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 5: seventy two eighty eight eighty narry an interception to be 193 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 5: found in there. Hasn't thrown an interception since September twenty two, 194 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 5: went the entire month of October without throwing a pick, 195 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 5: and how could you There's nobody around I'm on Ross 196 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 5: Saint Brown right there. Literally impossible to throw an interception. 197 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 5: So yeah, it looks like Jerry Goff is on track 198 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 5: for this huge divisional matchup, which is great. We want 199 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 5: to see both quarterbacks out there. We want these teams 200 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 5: to be at full strength. Very excited to see this 201 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 5: one coming up on Sunday with both quarterbacks again set 202 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 5: to play in this one. 203 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 1: High a fifty chance of rain in Green Bay on Sunday. 204 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 1: By the way, if you're looking at him, that's gone 205 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: through the forecast here. We've also got a quarterback injury 206 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: issue potentially in Baltimore where Lamar Jackson, who is, let's 207 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 1: be honest, no stranger to missing large chunks of practice 208 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 1: time during the course of the week. 209 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:26,719 Speaker 2: A lot of times it's illness. John R. 210 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 1: Must On Wednesday it's a rest day. He popped up 211 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: on the injury report as backslash knee. Did not practice 212 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: again on Thursday. Again, Judy based on day history here 213 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: with Lamar, I said, there's a decent chance we see 214 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: him right back out there on Friday and he plays 215 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 1: on Sunday. But you're talking about the raining NFL MVP 216 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 1: whose legs are a weapon, and apparently one of those 217 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 1: legs as well as the back, is given enough of 218 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,080 Speaker 1: an issue that he misses a couple of practice. 219 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I could be surprised still if we don't see 220 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 3: him on the field on Sunday. 221 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 4: Having said that, any time. 222 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 3: To quarterback miss both days of practice, As you said, 223 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson does miss practice. But when you miss both 224 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 3: days of practice and you pop up on the injury 225 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 3: report with the injuries and not just veteran rest day 226 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 3: or something like that, it bears watching. We will not 227 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 3: hear from John Harbaugh today. Yesterday he made light of it, 228 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 3: you know, rest day, and then. 229 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 4: We saw the injuries pop up. 230 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 3: It's also important to look at the calendar here. 231 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 4: They're coming off the loss to the Browns. 232 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 3: They have the Broncos this weekend to of course are 233 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 3: coming in hot, and then on Thursday they played the Bengals. 234 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 4: So they have the two games in five days thing. 235 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 3: Maybe they are just trying to get Lamar to get 236 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 3: off his feet a little bit, but certainly bears watching tomorrow. 237 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 1: Speaking of the Bengals, they are currently three and five, 238 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: two games back of the Ravens, three games back of 239 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 1: the Steelers, who right now are in first place in 240 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: the AFC North. I was at that game last week 241 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 1: against the Eagles. 242 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 2: It was competitive. 243 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 1: It was seventeen all late third quarter, and then the 244 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:59,080 Speaker 1: Eagles just kind of seemed to physically wear them down, 245 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 1: hit a big play to Devonte Smith. The Bengals backs 246 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 1: are against the wall zero to four at home this 247 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 1: season that could be tough to dig out of, and 248 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: even Joe Burrow is saying this is an important one. 249 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 1: On Sunday, they're facing a Raiders team that's had a 250 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 1: lot of struggles but actually beat the Ravens back in 251 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,319 Speaker 1: Week two in one of the outcomes that still remains 252 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 1: hard to accept. Look at some of the notable teams 253 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 1: below five hundred. These are a lot of teams that 254 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: I think, especially the Bengals, the Dolphins, the Jets, the Cowboys, 255 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 1: people had as playoff teams going into this season. 256 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 2: Ian rapport, I come to. 257 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: You of that entire list right there, and you got 258 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: a lot of talented players, of talented quarterbacks here. 259 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 2: Who do you envision having the best chance to make 260 00:11:58,280 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 2: it all the way back and get into the playoffs? 261 00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 9: Here? 262 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 8: This is always such a wild thing. 263 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 7: You look back at last year you had a couple 264 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 7: teams who at this point had had three wins make 265 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 7: the playoffs, and you're like, do we really not know 266 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 7: anything by this time of year, And the answer is, yeah, 267 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 7: we really don't know everything. So I would look at 268 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 7: that list and I would say the Los Angeles Rems, 269 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 7: who two weeks ago we were wondering whether or not 270 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 7: they would trade Cooper Cup because they only had one win, 271 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 7: looked like they were heading the wrong direction total rebuild, win, 272 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 7: two games, Cooper Cup, Pukadakua both back. 273 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 8: Suddenly this offense looks pretty good. 274 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 7: Running the ball well, Matthew Stafford is really slinging it 275 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:36,199 Speaker 7: like a young. 276 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 8: Matthew Stafford almost. 277 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 7: This looks like a team to me that is poised 278 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,839 Speaker 7: to go on a run if they stay healthy, meaning 279 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 7: if their receivers stay healthy. Offensive line's been kind of 280 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 7: up and down health wise anyway, But this to me 281 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 7: looks like the ultimate Sean McVay team where everyone goes, yeah. 282 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 8: I know they don't have the time. 283 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 7: Just we haven't heard of all these mid to late 284 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 7: round draftics who were playing and then they had the 285 00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,959 Speaker 7: like they always do, which is somehow getting into the playoffs. 286 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 8: That is what I'm envisioned for this rams. 287 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 4: All right, I'm going all in. 288 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 3: The Jets are my team that I think is going 289 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 3: to make a run here. 290 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, I know. 291 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 3: We have thought this all along, but I feel like 292 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 3: they've got the talent on the team. That if they 293 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,720 Speaker 3: could just get one win, and as I think Mike 294 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 3: made the point, like if they could just maybe get 295 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 3: into a rhythm, get. 296 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 4: Into an offensive flow. 297 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 3: Especially they have winnable games on the schedule, Cardinals, called Seahawks, 298 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 3: Dolphin's Jabbuars. 299 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 4: There are teams there that are beatable. 300 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 3: Of course, we've been saying that all along about the Jets, 301 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 3: but they just have to start winning games and then 302 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,680 Speaker 3: it is possible to run off a few games. Certainly, 303 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 3: I think the AFC East the division is almost certainly 304 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 3: out of reach now with the Buffalo Bills, but there's 305 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 3: a whole clump of teams there in the AFC that 306 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 3: are going to. 307 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 4: Be buying for those three wildcard spots. 308 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 3: I think the Jets, if they can pull it together, 309 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 3: and it has just are tonight for sure, But if 310 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 3: they can pull it together, I do think they could 311 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,439 Speaker 3: run off a few wins here and at least get themselves. 312 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 4: Back in the mix. 313 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 6: The Jets. 314 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 5: Meanwhile, we've talked about a couple of these moves, made 315 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 5: a flurry of moves before tonight's game. One of them 316 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 5: Tack McKinley, the former first round pick, signed to the 317 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 5: practice squad. So the Jets really doing a lot of 318 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 5: work on the roster and the practice squad to get 319 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 5: themselves potentially set up for a run if they could 320 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 5: just win. As Ian said, the one game before the 321 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 5: second and the third, all that stuff, I am going 322 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 5: to go with the Cincinnati Bengals here. And I could 323 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 5: look at the schedule and say the Raiders winnable game, 324 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 5: like I've done that for a bunch of teams. I 325 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 5: can't because I've already done it with them, and I've 326 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 5: done it a couple of times, and in spots where 327 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 5: I thought they were going to step up, they didn't. 328 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 5: And of course they throw the schedule up in the 329 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 5: control room now for me to not go through it 330 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 5: all for you. But the point being is that this 331 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 5: team still has the talent, it has the coaching staff, 332 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 5: it has the. 333 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 2: People that have been there and done it. 334 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 5: And I've said about since they got off to a 335 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 5: bad start in the first couple of weeks, this is 336 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 5: still a day injurious team because this is the team 337 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 5: that has already shown you that they can go on 338 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 5: the road. In the post, like may have to go 339 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 5: to Buffalo Cool already won there, may have to go 340 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 5: to Kansas City, no problem, already won. 341 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 6: There may have to go to Baltimore. 342 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 5: And I played the Ravens at home in the postseason, 343 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 5: but beat them in the playoffs. So these teams that 344 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 5: they're gonna have to see potentially in the playoffs, they 345 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 5: know that they can beat them, and they know that 346 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 5: they can beat them in their stadium. They just gotta 347 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 5: get on that role. Look, we're gonna come back to 348 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 5: this segment in a couple of weeks. One of us 349 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 5: three is probably gonna be right. I don't know if 350 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 5: it's gonna be me. Two of us are gonna look 351 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 5: ridiculous because those teams are gonna be setting up to drest. 352 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 5: But like one of these teams is gonna catch fire 353 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 5: and get the momentum and get going. 354 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:39,479 Speaker 2: Maybe too, We'll see. 355 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: We'll maybe come back to Judy tomorrow to find out 356 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 1: how she's feeling about that predictable. There are other teams 357 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 1: that have issues, including the Saints. A ton of injuries 358 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: for them, but they're getting some reinforcements at the most 359 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 1: important position. Derek Carr continues to track toward returning to 360 00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: the lineup after missing several games because of that oblique strain. 361 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:05,000 Speaker 1: They tried out Jake Hayner, They tried out the rookie 362 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: quarterback Spencer Rattler. They have not been able to get 363 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 1: a win a big challenge ahead. They got a long 364 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 1: way to go, but do still have a bunch of 365 00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: division games left, and according to Dennis Allen, it does 366 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: seem like Derek Carr raid to roll this week against 367 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 1: the Panthers. The Patriots also potentially could have their starting 368 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: quarterback in the lineup. Drake May officially listed for a 369 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: second straight day as a limited participant in practice. If 370 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 1: he goes to full participation on Friday, that would certainly 371 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 1: put him in line to clear the concussion protocol. Obviously, 372 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 1: there's bigger conversations that are involved there organizationally, an independent 373 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 1: neurologists would have to clear him to return. With the 374 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 1: fact that he's at least out there on a limited 375 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 1: basis these past couple of days good sign in the 376 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: big picture and also about the possibility he'll be ready to. 377 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 2: Roll against Tennessee. 378 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 1: The Giants are open Daniel Jones can get on a roll, 379 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 1: and they continue to give him opportunities to show one 380 00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:00,480 Speaker 1: last time that they can win with him. If it 381 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 1: doesn't happen this week, what could happen next. Let's talk 382 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 1: about it right after this on The Insiders. 383 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 5: You know, somebody sent me something the other day and 384 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 5: it said that Zach Wilson and Tommy DeVito have more 385 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 5: touchdown passes at MetLife Stadium than Daniel Jones and Aaron Rodgers, 386 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:29,920 Speaker 5: like within the last whatever it is, but that being said, 387 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:34,200 Speaker 5: Brian Dable sticking with Daniel Jones as his starting quarterback. 388 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:36,160 Speaker 5: We expected that, I said we were talking the other night. 389 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 5: We're not near the point where they bench them, but 390 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 5: there is a point at which they might have to 391 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 5: because he's got that twenty three million dollar injury guarantee 392 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:46,919 Speaker 5: for next year, and if he gets hurt in a 393 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,640 Speaker 5: game this year and he can't pass a physical at 394 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 5: some point next year, then the Giants are on the 395 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:53,919 Speaker 5: hook for twenty three million. We've seen it with other teams, 396 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 5: and as Daniel Jones gets set to play at home 397 00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 5: again in MetLife Stadium, trying to improve on those numbers, 398 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 5: and look why, I'm sure there's a variety of reasons, 399 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 5: but perhaps the fan base and the pressure and knowing 400 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 5: that he's playing at home. 401 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 2: I remember, as. 402 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 5: Mark Ross joins US for his front office view. 403 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:12,160 Speaker 6: I remember the other. 404 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,399 Speaker 5: Night talking to somebody who said he may be waving 405 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 5: a terrible towel himself and like happier that he's in 406 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:21,359 Speaker 5: a road environment than actually playing at home. So, Judy, 407 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,360 Speaker 5: with all that said about the injury guarantee and where 408 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 5: the Giants stand and the fact they're still behind Daniel Jones, 409 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 5: they did like some things that they saw from him 410 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 5: against the Steelers, including increased fire when he was yelling 411 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,439 Speaker 5: at people during that failed two point conversion. He's just 412 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 5: got to start better, playing better everywhere, but namely at home. 413 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 4: He's got to start playing better. 414 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:44,879 Speaker 3: But you do wonder, as you said, at some point 415 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 3: there is going to have to be a conversation about 416 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 3: when the future considerations overtake the current situation. 417 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 4: We're not there yet. I'm not sure we're even close. 418 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 4: We're only at the halfway point of. 419 00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 3: The season, so certainly the season is still salvageable mathematically. 420 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 4: But look, we know that they have looked to move 421 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:06,919 Speaker 4: on from Daniel Jones already. 422 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 3: They did a deep dive on quarterbacks this previous offseason, 423 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 3: as was documented very nicely on hard Knocks, so they 424 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 3: are certainly in their minds preparing. 425 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,399 Speaker 4: To move on from Daniel Jones at some point. The 426 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 4: question is when do they. 427 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 3: Decide that this season is too far gone and that 428 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 3: it is okay to bench the quarterback to stave off 429 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 3: the injury guarantee. That is a delicate line because certainly 430 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 3: John Marra is always conscious of wanting to put the 431 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 3: best possible product on the field. 432 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 4: And if they still believe that Daniel Jones is the 433 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 4: best possible product on the field, what do you do 434 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 4: in that case? This is a very delicate situation. 435 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 3: We have seen teams do this in the past, but 436 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 3: that is happening much later in the season. I'm gonna 437 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 3: let you guys take it, because I can't hear myself thinking. 438 00:19:54,720 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 5: This don't turn around, run Jenny, run. 439 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 8: And yeah, I mean that's yeah. I was wondering what 440 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:05,919 Speaker 8: the response would be. 441 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 6: That's it. 442 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:07,920 Speaker 8: I mean, that's that's the best response. 443 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:12,400 Speaker 7: Judy obviously is going to get uh well anyway, So yes, 444 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 7: for the New York Giants and Dan Jones, let's get 445 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:15,159 Speaker 7: back to that. 446 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 8: Let's get back to that conversation. 447 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 6: Yes, this is. 448 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,439 Speaker 7: Something that I think everyone is known heading into the season. 449 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:22,680 Speaker 7: This was the possibility that the Giants would do what 450 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 7: the Raiders ended up doing with Derek Carr. We've seen 451 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 7: a couple other teams do, which is protect themselves in 452 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:30,880 Speaker 7: future years by mentioning the quarterback. 453 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 8: There is a problem with that. The problem with that 454 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:35,120 Speaker 8: is when you do. 455 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:38,199 Speaker 7: It, you're sending a signal to everyone else in the 456 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 7: locker room that we are not winning and that winning 457 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:42,640 Speaker 7: is not the most important thing. 458 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:44,120 Speaker 8: Money is the most important thing. 459 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 7: The NFL is a business, it is a reality, and 460 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 7: then it's definitely true. But it does suck and the 461 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 7: players know it. I mean, look, Daniel Jones gives the 462 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 7: Giants the best chance to win. 463 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 6: That is clear. 464 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 8: I know that because he is. 465 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,719 Speaker 7: Currently their starting quarterback, just as all the other quarterbacks 466 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 7: we're starting as well, the same way with Russell Wilson. 467 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:04,879 Speaker 8: In Denver and on and on. 468 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 7: Once you take him out for money reasons, it tells 469 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 7: the locker room that we are not trying to win 470 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 7: any more, which organizationally, at that point, if the season 471 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,120 Speaker 7: is out of reach, that would probably be the best 472 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 7: thing you want to get a better draft pick. I'm 473 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,400 Speaker 7: just saying we're a coach like Brian Dable, who cares 474 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 7: about the players, who cares about the locker room. The 475 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 7: signal is loud and clear, So yes, it is some 476 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 7: of the Giants are going to consider if the time 477 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 7: is right, if the season is out of reach. I'm 478 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 7: just saying it is unbelievably complicated, much more so than 479 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 7: being like, all right, we'll just save some money. 480 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 8: Daniel goes it down. 481 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 5: Mark, you had the experience of some tough quarterback decisions 482 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 5: being made. In fact, you were there with the Giants 483 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 5: when they decided to bench Eli Manning for Geno Smith 484 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,959 Speaker 5: at one point. So how would you handle it? I mean, 485 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 5: what are you seeing? How would you handle it if 486 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:51,880 Speaker 5: you were the Giants at this point? 487 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,640 Speaker 10: Well, that's the big question is who's making the decision 488 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 10: on Daniel Jones. Is it Brian Daball, Is it Joe 489 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:01,119 Speaker 10: Shane or is it John Marra? Are they talking about it? 490 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,640 Speaker 10: So you know, I've been there where sometimes the emotions 491 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:07,120 Speaker 10: get involved instead of the football decisions there in that building, 492 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 10: and the emotions may weigh out again as far as 493 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 10: playing Daniel Jones and if he gets hurt and who 494 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 10: and he has a propensity to get hurt. Now, it's 495 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 10: not as if this is a guy that's shown to 496 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 10: stay on the field. So you are taking even on 497 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 10: more of a risk than a regular player, a regular quarterback, 498 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:24,639 Speaker 10: because he gets hurt all the time. So is it 499 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 10: the decision of emotionally get you know what, if Daniel 500 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 10: gets hurt, it's okay, We'll still pay him, or is it, 501 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 10: you know what, let us save this money. 502 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:34,639 Speaker 6: And you know, I don't think you and I'd have 503 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 6: to push. 504 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 10: Back a little bit on him giving them the best 505 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 10: chance to win because last year when he didn't play 506 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 10: and Tyrod Taylor and Tommy Cutltz did get in there, 507 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,959 Speaker 10: the offense played better, they won some games. They look 508 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 10: like they had more life in them last year when 509 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:49,879 Speaker 10: those guys got in when Daniel Jones got out. So 510 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 10: you know, I really don't think that locker room is 511 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:54,120 Speaker 10: looking at Daniel go in there weekend and week out, 512 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 10: especially at home, and saying, man, this guy is really 513 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,639 Speaker 10: getting this in there, you know, crushing it for us. 514 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 10: So you know, it all really goes back to is 515 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 10: this going to be a business decision or a decision 516 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 10: of you know, emotional with Daniel, Like let's just keep 517 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,400 Speaker 10: going out here. And I'd really like to know from 518 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 10: Brian Dabole just watching his interactions with Daniel Jones. 519 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:14,120 Speaker 6: I don't think there's any way he's just. 520 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 10: Going to say, let's just keep trotting this guy out 521 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 10: here and saying I've got my job on the line 522 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 10: for him. 523 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:20,879 Speaker 6: But you know things could be different going forward. 524 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, Look, whatever you think of Daniel Jones at this point, 525 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 5: and the Giants have yet to make the decision that 526 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,160 Speaker 5: we're talking about to move on from him. In talking 527 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:32,360 Speaker 5: to people at the game the other night, they did mention, look, 528 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 5: he's still inside twelve months from a torn acl so 529 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:39,400 Speaker 5: perhaps a little bit more athleticism, a little bit more comfortability. 530 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 6: He turns the court like. 531 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 5: He's still got a chance to make the decision for 532 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 5: them by playing better football and by being more comfortable. 533 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 5: We shall see. This is why we watch the games 534 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,159 Speaker 5: and let these things play out. Mark Ross, thank you 535 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:53,440 Speaker 5: very much. Judy Batista. Don't go anywhere. Don't walk into 536 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,639 Speaker 5: any abandoned Cavin's or I guess in the case of 537 00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 5: the stadium, there some dark tunnels. Don't do what people 538 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 5: do in hard movies and wind up whacked. Stay there 539 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:03,919 Speaker 5: because we're coming back to you after the break. We 540 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 5: are talking Thursday night football. Ian get out of here. 541 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 5: By the way, Ian's gone, he's gonna go trick or treating. 542 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 2: He's going as the kool Aid man. No, really, he is. 543 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 6: But when we come back, we're. 544 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:16,200 Speaker 5: Gonna talk Texans Yets with Judy Mattista. 545 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 6: And Brian Baldinger. 546 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 2: Jets going all black like witches. 547 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,879 Speaker 1: Maybe they can brew something a little bit different tonight 548 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 1: against the Texans as they kick off Week nine on 549 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 1: Prime Video MetLife Stadium. It's beautiful out there, not spooky 550 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 1: at all, but when the sun goes down, well, if 551 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 1: you haven't been on the Meadowlands rail, I'm just gonna 552 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:42,640 Speaker 1: leave that part there. 553 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:44,280 Speaker 2: Let's go out to the field right now. 554 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: Judy Matiste, Brian Baldinger are on the scene. 555 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:50,400 Speaker 2: Guys, tell me what we're looking for. How we're doing 556 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 2: out there. 557 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,919 Speaker 3: Well, we are looking for a change of fortune for 558 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:59,160 Speaker 3: the New York Jets. Maybe, Baldy, you're around this team 559 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 3: an awful lot, and you know it has just gone 560 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 3: sideways for them in every possible way on a five. 561 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 4: Game losing streak. And this is a tough. 562 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:12,160 Speaker 3: Get right matchup for the Jets because the Texans defense 563 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 3: has just been fantastic, allowing a very low I think 564 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,360 Speaker 3: fifty three percent completion percentage. 565 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers, we know has to play better. What do 566 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:20,920 Speaker 4: you think about this one? 567 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:24,199 Speaker 11: Well, I mean to follow with the Halloween them the 568 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:26,679 Speaker 11: Texans have some real goblins, you know. I mean you 569 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 11: look at what Will Anderson is doing. He's following up 570 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 11: that defensive Rookie of the Year year last year with 571 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,919 Speaker 11: a much better year right now. Danielle Hunter's coming and 572 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:35,639 Speaker 11: done exactly what they were hoping to do. 573 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 6: And they've got Danikon. 574 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,360 Speaker 11: Watrie back who was suspended the first six games. They've 575 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 11: got three guys that can get home. And it's been 576 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 11: a problem for Aaron Rodgers this year. He's been in 577 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 11: far too much of a hurry to get rid. 578 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 8: Of the ball. 579 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 2: He doesn't want to hold it long and. 580 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 11: So he's not let some things develop down the field. 581 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 11: But he's gonna have to trust the guys up front. 582 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,399 Speaker 11: We don't know the status yet of Gorgon Moses at 583 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 11: right tackle. We might know a little bit later here, 584 00:25:57,800 --> 00:25:59,680 Speaker 11: but it could be a little bit questionable about the 585 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 11: right time. So they've got to play better up front. 586 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 11: For Annon Rodgers, I think they've played. 587 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 4: Better, and we know that Rogers's bank up. 588 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 3: Key's been on the entry report with injuries all up 589 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 3: and down his legs, although he said he's feeling a 590 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 3: little better this week. Taking Kayne Pepper and water, Darton, 591 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 3: I use a Kayanne Pepping my shelf. 592 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,879 Speaker 4: You're really interesting. All right, we'll talk about that off camera. 593 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 3: All right, let's talk about the Texans now, who were 594 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 3: facing a few little bit of adversity in themselves using 595 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,720 Speaker 3: Stefan Diggs. They are still without Nico Collins, so down 596 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 3: their top. 597 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,160 Speaker 4: Two receivers, certainly four tenths more work for. 598 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,679 Speaker 3: Tank Dell and maybe a very heavy dose of Joe Mixon, 599 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:39,440 Speaker 3: especially because since Robert Solid was fired, not only are 600 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:41,959 Speaker 3: they ozer and three since then, but the defense, especially 601 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 3: the run defense, has taken a little bit of a step. 602 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:45,160 Speaker 8: Be what is he there? 603 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,399 Speaker 11: Well, the Texans aren't nearly as powerful or have the 604 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 11: firepower without Lego Collins. 605 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,919 Speaker 2: He's their big play guy. He's been out and you 606 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 2: could tell. 607 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 11: And now without Diggs, you're gonna lead on John Metchi 608 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 11: who came in last week, and Robert Woods, Tank Dell, 609 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,639 Speaker 11: you know, Shultz to the tight end, but probably a 610 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 11: heavy dose of Joe Mixon and honestly C. J. Stroud 611 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 11: is excellent at extending plays. There's bet you right there 612 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,680 Speaker 11: with that catch Xavier Hutchinson number nineteen. I mean, I 613 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:11,920 Speaker 11: go through the roster of guys that he can throw 614 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,399 Speaker 11: to right now. And one thing about C. J. Stroud 615 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 11: when he extends to play, because he can do it 616 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 11: as well as like he does right here, his eyes 617 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,439 Speaker 11: are up down the field and he'll find the open receiver. 618 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 11: I mean, that just happened to be Diggs right there, 619 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:25,399 Speaker 11: but you know they'll find the open receiver. He's excellent 620 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 11: at keeping his eyes down the field. 621 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 3: He also doesn't make many mistakes, has a very low 622 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:30,720 Speaker 3: interception rate. 623 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 4: Baldi, thank you. 624 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,719 Speaker 3: We will be watching and hoping for better things from 625 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 3: the Jets, at least a competitive game here. 626 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 1: Tom, Thank you very much, Judy and Baldymore from you 627 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:44,959 Speaker 1: guys in just a little bit here. Morgan Moses, by 628 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 1: the way, sounds like he will play tonight. Pretty important 629 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 1: against that Texans pass rush. The Jets and everybody else 630 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 1: in the AFC East are four games back in the 631 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 1: win column of the Buffalo Bills, who just keep rolling 632 00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:00,200 Speaker 1: regardless of who Josh Allen's throwing for Week nine, other 633 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 1: important division till season high twenty seven points for the 634 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: Dolphins in Tua Tongue of ILOs first game back from 635 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: his latest concussion. Still haven't seen the really monster games 636 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 1: from guys like Jalen Wattle and Tyreek Hill. Oh there's 637 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: hope is Tuas settles more into the mix. Maybe that 638 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 1: comes this week against Buffalo. 639 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 12: A lot of the games that you played against Buffalo, 640 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 12: you've suffered some pretty big injuries have entered the thought 641 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 12: process of your mind that every time you play them 642 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 12: something happens. 643 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 13: No, no, no, I'm a football player. 644 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:15,960 Speaker 6: Go out there. 645 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 13: If you have any any of those thoughts, I think 646 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 13: it's like I think that's when it's time to call it, man. 647 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 13: So go out there.

Gives himself a time now 659 00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 15: steps up fires heads towards the end zone. 660 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 2: I like that he likes that. 661 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 5: Surprise the Commanders won that game.

I 664 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 5: think it might have something to do with that team 665 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 5: that we just saw. 666 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, let's just lead off with that. 667 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 10: I mean I was already surprise leading into that last player, 668 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 10: and then jayde Daniels just keeps. 669 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 6: Taking it to another level. Mike. 670 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 10: I mean that was absolutely crazy. And coming into the 671 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:56,200 Speaker 10: season I had high hopes for Jane Daniels start neck 672 00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 10: and neck with Caleb Williams, who would be the rookie 673 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 10: of the year, and I thought they would be scrappy 674 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 10: and competitive and you know, be in the mix, but 675 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 10: would never would have thought they would have taken it 676 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 10: to this level of Okay, are we the best team 677 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 10: in the NFC outside of Detroit and Green Bay? And 678 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 10: we're right in the mix, and right there Terry McLaurin, 679 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 10: really Jade Daniels getting him going, all those years of 680 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 10: McLaren in the wilderness with no quarterbacks taking his game 681 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 10: to another level. So surprise number one, just Jayde and 682 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 10: Daniels of how well they're playing and how good they've 683 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 10: gotten so fast, and just how exciting they are as well, Mike, 684 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 10: So keep an eye out for this Commander's team down 685 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 10: the stretch. 686 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:31,760 Speaker 6: They are for real. 687 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. 688 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 5: And the reason you could consider them coming in neck 689 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 5: and neck and why Jade and Daniels have been set 690 00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 5: up to actually pull ahead in this race is because 691 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 5: of Cliff Kingsbury, the offensive coordinator. We knew he was 692 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 5: going to be. Jaden was going to be more well 693 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 5: equipped than maybe some of the other rookie quarterbacks that 694 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:49,920 Speaker 5: were out there. He has taken it and run with 695 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 5: it at this point, all right, give us their second surprise. 696 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 10: So, Mike, coming into the year, if I said Patrick 697 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 10: Mahomes had nine interceptions and eight touchdowns at this point, 698 00:31:58,040 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 10: what would you think their record would be? 699 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 6: Not good? 700 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 2: Right now? 701 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 6: Undefeated? I mean, in this team, it's just. 702 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 10: Crazy where the Patrick Mahomes is still not being Patrick 703 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 10: Mahomes until he needs to be Patrick Mahomes. But the 704 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 10: consistency is not there, the explosiveness is not there, and 705 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:15,600 Speaker 10: it just does not matter because they're actually running the 706 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 10: ball now with the resurgent Kareem Hunt. But of course, 707 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 10: my man, Steve Spagnolo, the architect of our two thousand 708 00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 10: and seven Super Bowl champion defense, is just taking his 709 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 10: game to another level, his coaching to a whole another 710 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 10: level with that defense. Just really just keeping your winning 711 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,680 Speaker 10: games for Kansas City while Mahomes just makes plays when 712 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 10: he needs to, and maybe some of those young guys 713 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:40,240 Speaker 10: will start emerging. Xavierworthy, looking at you on offense, we 714 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 10: always know Kelsey's there, but really, Andy Reid, the masterful 715 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:46,480 Speaker 10: coaching job, Steve Spagnola even taking it to another level 716 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 10: on defense running the ball. 717 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 6: Mahome's doing it when he needs to and they're undefeated. 718 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 10: Unreal, huge surprise there, not that they're undefeated, but the 719 00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 10: way they're doing it. 720 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 5: Once again, Mike, we're almost in the coach hiring season. 721 00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 5: Steve Spagnolo. It's about high time that he got a job, 722 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 5: or at least strong consideration for a head coaching job. 723 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 5: Keep doing this, help stop the run while the offense 724 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:12,280 Speaker 5: is running the football, regardless of what your old world 725 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 5: quarterback is doing. That is a winning formula still in 726 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 5: the NFL. One more surprise for the folks on Halloween, Mark. 727 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 10: Well, how about the dominance of the NFC North. I 728 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 10: mean a couple of teams that he thought Detroit would 729 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:27,720 Speaker 10: be good in Green Bay, but I mean how Minnesota 730 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 10: is playing. You talk about head coach candidates. Ben Johnson there, 731 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 10: the offensive coordinator of the Lions, and what he's doing. 732 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:34,959 Speaker 6: There is just phenomenal. 733 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 10: With the best offense in the league, Jared Golf playing 734 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 10: at the MVP level, all those playmakers there. Then you 735 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,600 Speaker 10: go to Green Bay Coach of the Year candidate Matt Lafleur, 736 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 10: yourd Love gets hurt, doesn't play two games. He's having 737 00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 10: Malik Willis look like the man there and taking it 738 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 10: to another level. 739 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 6: All those young playmakers. 740 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 10: Of course, the huge surprise of Minnesota and the way 741 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 10: Sam Darnold is playing, Kevin O'Connell, the way he's got 742 00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 10: him playing in on the defense, Brian Flores dominating games, 743 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 10: blitzing all over the place. And then finally with Chicago, 744 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:07,840 Speaker 10: finally has their quarterback. 745 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:09,879 Speaker 6: Know they had the heartbreak last week. 746 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 10: If they didn't have the heart break, the Jade Daniels 747 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,320 Speaker 10: may be right there in the mix with. 748 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 6: Those other teams. 749 00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,399 Speaker 10: They took a step back there, but at least they 750 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:20,400 Speaker 10: have the answer there with Caleb Williams. Those playmakers are 751 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 10: starting to come together, the defenses playing well, and could 752 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:26,480 Speaker 10: we have all four of these teams making the playoffs, 753 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 10: one of these teams representing the NFC in the Super Bowl, 754 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 10: and one of these teams possibly winning the Super Bowl. 755 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 10: A huge chance of all those things happening, Mike, because 756 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:38,160 Speaker 10: this is just a super exciting division. A lot of 757 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 10: star power quarterback, a lot of great coaches, a lot 758 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 10: of exciting teams, and complete surprise that the NFC Norses 759 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 10: has been this dominant all over the place. 760 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 5: Here come the bulk of the divisional games, though, and 761 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:53,000 Speaker 5: for all four of these teams to make the postseason. 762 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:54,759 Speaker 5: You see the Bears in last place. I hate to 763 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 5: say that at four and three, but you are in 764 00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,080 Speaker 5: last place. Going to have to win some of these 765 00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:00,800 Speaker 5: divisional games to keep this club together. Can't let the 766 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 5: Lions go fourteen to fifteen wins whatever. That's not gonna 767 00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:06,759 Speaker 5: get all four of these teams in. So here we go, 768 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:10,240 Speaker 5: getting ready for some battles in the NFC North. Mark Ross, 769 00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:13,720 Speaker 5: thank you very much for your insight here and your surprises. 770 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 5: Surprise we're gonna talk cal that's not a surprise. 771 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:18,200 Speaker 2: We're talking Cowboys. 772 00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:21,719 Speaker 5: Jane Slater is gonna be joining us, always providing the 773 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 5: context on the Cowboys. She's up next here on the Insiders. 774 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:34,800 Speaker 1: Not the way the Cowboys wanted to start off the season. 775 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 1: Definitely not the way Dak Prescott wanted to start off 776 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:42,719 Speaker 1: this season. Career low passer rating so far during Dallas's 777 00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 1: three and four start forward Dak certainly hoping they can 778 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,720 Speaker 1: get things rolling this week against the Falcons, who welcome 779 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:53,080 Speaker 1: you back to the Insiders, Tom Pelacero. Now join by 780 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:57,359 Speaker 1: our friend Jane Slater, who covers the Cowboys very closely. Jane, 781 00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:59,719 Speaker 1: let's talk about the other side of the ball for 782 00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:03,320 Speaker 1: the it doesn't sound like the market Micah Parson's help. 783 00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:05,680 Speaker 2: Is coming, at least not this week. 784 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,840 Speaker 1: How does that run defense put this thing together and 785 00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:11,880 Speaker 1: make their mard against Bjeon Robinson and a good Falcons offense. 786 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:16,760 Speaker 9: I've got you some technical difficulties, just like the Cowboys 787 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 9: have had all sorts of difficulties this year on that 788 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:23,799 Speaker 9: side of the ball. Good summation there, Tom about some 789 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:25,879 Speaker 9: of the injuries that they've had. But let's really start 790 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:29,320 Speaker 9: drilling down about this opponent this weekend and the challenge 791 00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:32,319 Speaker 9: of Bjeon Robinson. You know, the Cowboys against the forty 792 00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:34,440 Speaker 9: nine ers last weekend gave up two hundred and twenty 793 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 9: three yards on the ground. But now you've got Bjeon 794 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,360 Speaker 9: Robinson that they've got to go up against now, even 795 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,440 Speaker 9: though he is a running back on this roster. It 796 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:46,319 Speaker 9: was Jordan Lewis and Trayvon Diggs this week who told 797 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 9: us that they play positionless football on this offense. In 798 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:53,839 Speaker 9: other words, regardless if you're a wide receiver running back, 799 00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 9: they can move you all around the field. And when 800 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:59,399 Speaker 9: you look at Bjon Robinson, he is the third most 801 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 9: targeted receiver. He's got one hundred plus scrimmageorge in three 802 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 9: straight games and four touchdowns in that span. And this 803 00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:08,720 Speaker 9: is a Cowboys run de that's ranked thirty first against 804 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,919 Speaker 9: the run. And you know, again keep in mind, it's 805 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 9: not just Bijon Robinson on the ground you have to 806 00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:17,400 Speaker 9: do with. You've also got Tyler Algier. According to NFL 807 00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,560 Speaker 9: Pro these two are in the top five in terms 808 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 9: of speed. So now you're going to need this defense 809 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:26,040 Speaker 9: to play fast. But you can't exactly load the box 810 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 9: against them either. I mean, I was just in Tampa 811 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,320 Speaker 9: covering them going up against the Bucks. And this is 812 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:35,879 Speaker 9: a team that not only has Algier Robinson, but you've 813 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 9: got Kyle Pitts, You've got Darnell Mooney, You've got Drake London, 814 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:41,759 Speaker 9: guys that they move all over the field. So I'm 815 00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 9: going to be really interested to see how Mike Zimmer 816 00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 9: decides to scheme this thing up. 817 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:52,120 Speaker 1: Now, the Falcons pass rus statistically has not been all 818 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 1: that great either so far this season, Jane. They made 819 00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 1: the big trade before the season for matt Judon hasn't 820 00:37:56,960 --> 00:38:00,319 Speaker 1: maybe had quite the impact that they were anticipating. How 821 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:02,759 Speaker 1: did the Cowboys take that as they try to get 822 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 1: Dak and that offense going. 823 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:08,319 Speaker 9: I love that you brought up Matthew jude On. I mean, 824 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:10,400 Speaker 9: we certainly expect more out of him. He's getting a 825 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:12,680 Speaker 9: lot of double team this year. Tom and I had 826 00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 9: to ask stats double check this for me a couple 827 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 9: of times because I didn't believe my eyes. I knew 828 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:18,840 Speaker 9: that they had one of the lowest pressure rates in 829 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 9: the league, but this is how many sacks they have 830 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:24,880 Speaker 9: this season according to Next Gen Stats, just six, So 831 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:28,960 Speaker 9: we know that this is an opportunity then for Dak Prescott. 832 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:30,879 Speaker 9: I went up to Dak Prescott in the locker room 833 00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 9: and I said, do you see it as an opportunity 834 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 9: and maybe finally get that confidence of your offensive lineup. 835 00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:39,400 Speaker 9: Jerry Jones talk this week that the communication hasn't necessarily 836 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:42,080 Speaker 9: been there. Dak says that they've been practicing really hard 837 00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:44,880 Speaker 9: this week. This is probably the best they've looked. But 838 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 9: with that being said, he said, Nah, I'm not jinxing 839 00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 9: this thing. I see every week as an opportunity. But 840 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 9: he's not sitting here and saying, Aha, this is the 841 00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:54,359 Speaker 9: week we. 842 00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 2: Really pop off. 843 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:57,800 Speaker 9: But this would be an opportunity really for this entire 844 00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:01,080 Speaker 9: team to sort of galvanized bound back for which has 845 00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:03,839 Speaker 9: really felt like a tough week after that forty nine 846 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 9: Ers game. And I'll be honest, Tom, it would be 847 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:09,360 Speaker 9: such a cowboys thing to do when it feels like 848 00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 9: the Falcons, you know, they're leading the NFC South, they 849 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:14,439 Speaker 9: feel good coming off of that Tampa win. To go 850 00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:18,000 Speaker 9: and beat the Falcons on the road despite all of 851 00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:20,399 Speaker 9: their weapons, it's just a very cowboy thing to do. 852 00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:24,240 Speaker 9: And again, an opportunity here if you allow Dak Prescott 853 00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 9: to sit back there in the pocket a little while. 854 00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 1: We've been pretty good overall on the road. Jane Slater, 855 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 1: thank you very much. Look forward to talking with you 856 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:36,360 Speaker 1: again soon. The Cowboys still in it, and against all odds, 857 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 1: so are the Rams. 858 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:42,400 Speaker 6: This guy just ended up passing Dan Marino. 859 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:43,279 Speaker 4: He's like. 860 00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:54,359 Speaker 15: Time night at timing completion since and this was all 861 00:39:54,400 --> 00:40:05,880 Speaker 15: one tonight. 862 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:15,640 Speaker 6: On my son's first birthday. 863 00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:25,120 Speaker 5: Oh game ball swap going on all over there. Happy birthday, 864 00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:29,279 Speaker 5: Sean mcvay's young one year old son. There are the 865 00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:33,400 Speaker 5: NFC West standings, which are now clumped up together because 866 00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:35,960 Speaker 5: the Rams won that game. I've been riding that high 867 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:38,480 Speaker 5: for a week now because they played last Thursday. Now 868 00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:41,319 Speaker 5: I got the Seahawks coming up on Sunday. As we 869 00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:43,479 Speaker 5: try to figure out which team is going to put 870 00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:46,240 Speaker 5: which team or teams are going to put a five 871 00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:48,759 Speaker 5: in the lost column. Bridget Condon is going to be 872 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 5: there to sit barring a tie, going to be there 873 00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:53,399 Speaker 5: to see it between the Rams and the Seahawks. Let's 874 00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:55,759 Speaker 5: talk about the Rams and how they build momentum off 875 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:57,000 Speaker 5: of that victory last week. 876 00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:59,400 Speaker 16: Yeah, Mike, that video was awesome. And I was in 877 00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:01,759 Speaker 16: that locker room last Thursday night, and while there was 878 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 16: a ton of excitement. You could tell that players weren't 879 00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:06,160 Speaker 16: trying to get too high or too low. They were 880 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:09,839 Speaker 16: trying to just remember what their real goal is and 881 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:13,879 Speaker 16: not let that big win on primetime Thursday night distract them. 882 00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:17,600 Speaker 16: Because of course they go Sunday now to the Seahawks Lumenfield, 883 00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:19,960 Speaker 16: which is one of the toughest places to play in 884 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,319 Speaker 16: the NFL. We both know that, But you just talked 885 00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:24,759 Speaker 16: about the NFC West standings. This is so interesting. The 886 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,360 Speaker 16: Rams are just a half game out of first place. 887 00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 16: Every team in the NFC West is within one game 888 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,440 Speaker 16: of each other, so it's going to be such an 889 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:36,279 Speaker 16: important game for the Rams. Matthew Stafford talked about this 890 00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 16: week how having Pukanakua and Cooper Cup back on the 891 00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:42,799 Speaker 16: field practicing has made a huge difference. Remember, yeah, they 892 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:45,279 Speaker 16: were both back in that game against the Vikings, but 893 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:48,879 Speaker 16: they really only had like one actual practice walk through 894 00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:51,680 Speaker 16: together and now they've had an entire week to prepare 895 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:55,640 Speaker 16: for the Seahawks. He said, our offense is based on timing, rhythm, 896 00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:58,960 Speaker 16: and trust, and that gets built on the practice field. 897 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:03,080 Speaker 16: So he feels really prepared heading into Sunday in Seattle. 898 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:06,160 Speaker 16: And it's no question that The offense looked completely different 899 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,319 Speaker 16: last Thursday with those guys on the field, and it's 900 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,640 Speaker 16: impacting Matthew Stafford. His passer rating is more than twenty 901 00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:16,600 Speaker 16: points more with Cooper Cup on the field than without him. 902 00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:18,799 Speaker 16: And they're hoping that the health of those guys and 903 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:21,520 Speaker 16: another week of practice like this is the right time 904 00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:24,160 Speaker 16: for them to just keep building, building, building, and it's 905 00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:25,920 Speaker 16: going to start Sunday in Seattle. 906 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:29,800 Speaker 5: Other side of this game, Seahawks keep getting house money 907 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:31,680 Speaker 5: and then giving it right back at all to a 908 00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:33,680 Speaker 5: hot start, then drop the couple in a row, then 909 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,759 Speaker 5: go into Atlanta and win and then lose a disappointing 910 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:40,000 Speaker 5: one against the Bills. Your sense for the vibe in 911 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:41,799 Speaker 5: Seattle after last week's. 912 00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 16: Loss, Yeah, Mike, you said it, and Jaren Reid said 913 00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:46,719 Speaker 16: it this week. The nose tackle for this Seahawks team, 914 00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:49,640 Speaker 16: he said, I think we're pissed off, but we're even keeled. 915 00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:51,960 Speaker 16: And he said, we have a chance to change our 916 00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:55,080 Speaker 16: future and it starts today. You just talked about it. 917 00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:57,840 Speaker 16: The Seahawks started three and zero, then they dropped three, 918 00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:01,840 Speaker 16: They won one, and then they lost last against the Bills. 919 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:04,160 Speaker 16: Reid said, they have to find a way on defense 920 00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:06,919 Speaker 16: to be more consistent. They can't have moments where they're 921 00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:09,200 Speaker 16: doing well and then moments where they're giving up a 922 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:12,719 Speaker 16: ton of points. Because this Seahawks defense since Week four 923 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:15,799 Speaker 16: has given up more points or yards per play than 924 00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:18,920 Speaker 16: any other team in the NFL, and that is going 925 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:21,440 Speaker 16: to be a challenge when you're going against Matthew Stafford 926 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,200 Speaker 16: and a Rams team that just came off a season 927 00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:27,640 Speaker 16: high thirty points in Week eight against the Vikings. He 928 00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:30,280 Speaker 16: was asked, how do you stop Matthew Stafford in this offense? 929 00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:33,360 Speaker 16: And he mainly just said, look, it doesn't matter what 930 00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:35,880 Speaker 16: they do. Regardless of what they're going to do on offense, 931 00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:38,960 Speaker 16: we have to focus on ourselves and we have to 932 00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:41,440 Speaker 16: do our job. And that is the mindset for the 933 00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:44,200 Speaker 16: Seahawks heading into this big divisional matchup. 934 00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:47,600 Speaker 5: Mike on Sunday, Bridget got a busy weekend coming up, 935 00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:49,480 Speaker 5: so I want you to chill tonight and get ready. 936 00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:51,399 Speaker 5: I also want you because you and your husband are 937 00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:55,319 Speaker 5: expecting congratulations again by the way, but I want you 938 00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:57,600 Speaker 5: to go out and enjoy your last kid free Halloween. 939 00:43:57,640 --> 00:43:59,920 Speaker 5: It's nice, it's great, but they just little. 940 00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:00,480 Speaker 2: It's crazy. 941 00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 5: Once the kids are involved, So you know, take a 942 00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:07,799 Speaker 5: breath and soak this one in.
