But hey, they stood the test of 53 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,919 Speaker 1: time and they worked. It's amazing that you still had 54 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: some left over no matter how sick you were. 55 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 5: Well, I wonder if we still have some some tubs 56 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 5: of vic from nineteen seventy two that would still be 57 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:50,079 Speaker 5: good today. 58 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 4: And guaranteed I'm going to find someone eating just on principle, 59 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 4: because that was the best. 60 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 3: Like that's when I had a sense of smell. 61 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 4: I lost mine before COVID some illness and whatever, infection whatever, 62 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,639 Speaker 4: But like back then, that was that was the thing 63 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 4: that made you know you were alive in the winter. Yeah, 64 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 4: and that Josh it punched you in the face. 65 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: Used VIX. He put some of my nose as well, 66 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: right underneath you know, when you're stuffed up. Yeah, a 67 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 1: lot of the games could have used VIS. On Sunday 68 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: it was like we get this this dandy Bengals Ravens game, 69 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 1: and then it's just a complete letdown, even up until 70 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: Monday Night. We always talk about the Monday Night or 71 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: on this podcast and Dolphins Rams. I don't know if 72 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 1: Karen Williams is starting to become a thing with the 73 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: non touchdowns. But the third straight game that he didn't 74 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 1: score a rushing touchdown, in the second straight game he 75 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: didn't score a touchdown period. But Rams just had a 76 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: tough going of it against the Dolphins defense on Monday Night. 77 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 4: Rough run for the Rams, stafford an interception. Six straight 78 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 4: games for him, the longest of his career. He goes 79 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 4: for two hundred ninety three yards. He sacked four times, 80 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 4: misses a couple of wide open receivers. You you also have 81 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 4: a couple drop passes that were huge. Pukadakua ends up with, 82 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 4: you know, empty calories for fantasy purposes. 83 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 3: You take them. 84 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 4: However, they come right, nine catches, ninety eight yards, Like, 85 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 4: what a great day. You only said that if you 86 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 4: didn't watch the game, sure, right, because it was awful 87 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 4: all the way through. Cooper Cup ends up with a 88 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 4: seven catch, eighty yard day. Great, fantastic, But again, if 89 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:27,359 Speaker 4: you watched it, it was painful. The fact that DeMarcus 90 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,480 Speaker 4: Robinson was out of the box score until the final 91 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 4: two minutes. Who goes to the Dolphins. Dolphins defensive squad 92 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 4: which had been giving up about twenty four game, but 93 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 4: today they rally up right. Eight Chan does nothing on 94 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 4: the ground, just thirty seven yards and his twelve carries, 95 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 4: and you basically have a wash between the two rushing. 96 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,839 Speaker 3: Efforts and eight Chan owners. 97 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 4: And I know because well I was one until Guillotine 98 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 4: died in one of them that I had is the 99 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 4: you know, you saw the touchdown pass to Tyreek Hill 100 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,159 Speaker 4: and you started cursing because like, even if you only 101 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 4: had the thirty yards rushing or thirty seven yards rushing 102 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:10,119 Speaker 4: and what fifteen did have five receptions, So he helped 103 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 4: you there barely falling forward, but you know, touchdown there 104 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 4: makes that a lot more palatable game. 105 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, Instead. 106 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 4: It's all right, Yeah, he was good enough as a 107 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 4: flex play instead of the top five that you know 108 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 4: he was projected to be against this rams D so 109 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:30,480 Speaker 4: on both sides, Yeah, just tough sledding and for Kyron 110 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 4: Williams behind the shuffled offensive line and the inefficiencies that 111 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 4: are showing with Stafford, Yeah, it's going to be a 112 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 4: tough sled the back half of the season. 113 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 1: Well, what do you think about to us since his return, 114 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 1: because the Dolphins offense hasn't been what we had saw 115 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 1: had seen in the previous couple of seasons now that 116 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: he's been back. I mean, he can't complain from what 117 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: they did offensively Monday night because they won the football game. 118 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: But when you look at the numbers, you see too, 119 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 1: his numbers, you're like, okay, all right, yeah, you know, 120 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 1: two hundred yards that's threw a touchdown pass. Maybe not 121 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 1: what you expected. And then you look at everybody else 122 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: since your point about eight chan you Tyreek Hills touchdowns 123 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 1: saved his awful night. Jayalen Waddell had a nice couple 124 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 1: of catches here. He moster was nowhere to be found. 125 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,160 Speaker 1: Just really funky with the Miami Dolphins right now. 126 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, pretty odd, right, I mean he finish his quarterback 127 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:24,479 Speaker 4: twenty two for the week. Stafford's right there with him. 128 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 4: But you look at the last couple of weeks because 129 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,840 Speaker 4: even against the in the games the narrow losses to 130 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,280 Speaker 4: Buffalo into Arizona where they scored twenty seven points, still 131 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 4: pedestrian numbers for yes, right, two thirty four and a 132 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 4: touchdown in the twenty eight twenty seven lost Arizona two 133 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:44,719 Speaker 4: thirty one did have two touchdowns. Okay, solid against the Bills, 134 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 4: but not world beating. Okay, that's nice, nice mid line 135 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 4: kind of stuff. And then this week two oh seven, 136 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 4: one and one, and look if he throws an interception, 137 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 4: I don't want you going back trying to tackle anybody 138 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 4: or getting the way I mean, you got unbelievable, you know. 139 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 4: I like the I don't care, but he's he's man. 140 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 5: I also was listening to his post game afterwards, and 141 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 5: he was kind of like joking about you know, he 142 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 5: laughed about it a little bit, and I don't know 143 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 5: he only laughed because this isn't a joke, you know, 144 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 5: like this is your your life. 145 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: I I I don't care anymore. And I mean that 146 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: in a way of if he's down with it, yeah. 147 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 4: If he's on the field, yeah right, I'm one hundred 148 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 4: percent life. I'm just in the h I was just 149 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 4: thinking from the coaching I need this guy another seven 150 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 4: weeks from your your standpoint, Dan, I'm one hundred percent 151 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 4: in agreement. 152 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 5: Right. 153 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 4: It's like if you're good or bad, Like, I don't 154 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 4: care if you got a hurt ankle, the quad's messed up, 155 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 4: shoulder hurts. Whatever, if you go between the white lines, 156 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 4: we evaluate you the same. You don't get a bunch 157 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 4: of well butts. You either win or you lose. You 158 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 4: perform or you don't. 159 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 1: You know the seat to uh And I was just 160 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: reading some stats that since he returned, he had the 161 00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: highest success rates on pass is for first downs than 162 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: anybody else in the in the NFL. And that's all 163 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: fine and dandy, but you're not seeing the seventy yarders 164 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: to Tyreek Hill. You're not seeing those anymore. And maybe 165 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: the way that you now defend the Dolphins and try 166 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: to try to avoid those. But if that's the case 167 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: and this is what defenses are giving Miami, then you 168 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: could expect a lot more of this because it had to. 169 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: His numbers have been consistent. Tyreek Hill's numbers have not 170 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 1: been I mean, when you go from four catches for 171 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 1: eighty yards to three to sixteen, that's quite the gap, 172 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 1: but it's still four catches are three catches, you know, 173 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: so there's there's not as much variation with the Dolphins. 174 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,439 Speaker 1: And I'm just wondering now, like, are you capped? I wouldn't. 175 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: I can't trust Raheem most anymore. I think people wanted 176 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: to when he in the second half of this season. 177 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 1: I just think that the Dolphins now are just kind 178 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: of pedestrian when it comes to fantasy football. 179 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, I can't trust any of them, no at all. 180 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 4: I mean, eight Chan is still going to be a 181 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 4: back end two. Tyreek Hill is going to be a 182 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 4: mid to back two. Like like you said, three for sixteen. 183 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 4: Saves his day with the one yard touchdown catch, but 184 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:11,079 Speaker 4: otherwise he's being disappeared. That's his first touchdown since Week one. Yeah, 185 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 4: go all the way back and that was the eighty 186 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 4: yard after you know, the the fumble right, the punch out, 187 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 4: fumble recovery and touch back and that's it. 188 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 3: Like he's been a giant gap in between. 189 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 1: How about I pose this and you could jump into 190 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:28,680 Speaker 1: because I think we're all gonna be on the same page. 191 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 1: What three headed monster would you rather go forward with? Kyen, 192 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: Puka and cup or eighth Chan, Wattle and Tyreek. 193 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 4: I'm gonna grit my teeth, but I'll still I'll take 194 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 4: the Rams. My answer would secret options see find me 195 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 4: another trio, but I'll take the Rams even with the inefficiencies. 196 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: Going right now, I down with the Rams. 197 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 4: Yea Rams, You're at least getting the completions, right, sure, 198 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 4: especially when we talk about the fact that the vast 199 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 4: majority of lee are now at least half PPR, if 200 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 4: not full, So I know I'm at least getting Stafford 201 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 4: completing the ball. Whether I'm getting five yards of catch 202 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 4: doesn't matter, because each one of those points counts. 203 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, And my point too is how often when the 204 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: Dolphins are playing a game that you'd rather have the 205 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 1: other team's offensive weapons. Yeah, but I think that's where 206 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 1: we are now with the Miami Dolphins and to his 207 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: return and a tyment right now in what is a 208 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 1: jacked up AFC, completely jacked up heading into this weekend, 209 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 1: and I said this on my Sunday show, there were 210 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: six teams entering the weekend with two losses. Ian's Jets 211 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: weren't even one of those teams. Like, it was so 212 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: bad for the AFC because you had the Jaguars, you 213 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:49,959 Speaker 1: had the Patriots, you had the Raiders, you had the Browns. 214 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 1: They were on by six teams had entered the weekend 215 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 1: with a loss, and it allowed Ian's crappy Jets to 216 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: still be considered in the playoff picture because heck, well 217 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: they only had they had three wins. At least it 218 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,680 Speaker 1: put them tenth, you know, and that excuse me, Yeah, 219 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 1: it was in the tenth spot, so you know. So 220 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 1: it's just it's crazy, like how bad that conference actually 221 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: is because we talk about, you know, the good teams 222 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 1: and whatnot. The Dolphins, now with their third win, as 223 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 1: crazy as it is, could be difficult, but they're not 224 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 1: completely out of it just yet. Even though having three 225 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 1: wins through ten weeks of the season is not a 226 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: recipe for success. 227 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 4: In the playoffs, would you like me to give you 228 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:33,719 Speaker 4: the even crazier part going forward as much as we're 229 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 4: looking at the numbers and and look, the show is now, right, 230 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 4: the podcast is now. Thank you all for listening and 231 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 4: tuning in and being part of our extended family. The 232 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 4: Dolphins have the third weakest remaining schedule in all the NFL. 233 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 4: Tampa at three twenty eight. The last opponent they have 234 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 4: that is on the plus side as the Chargers. Then 235 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 4: you have Indianapolis. They've got two games on the plus side, 236 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 4: the Lions and the Broncos. Miami three games over there, 237 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:07,319 Speaker 4: Green Bay, Houston, San Francisco. None of those teams what 238 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,839 Speaker 4: we were expecting, right, Jordan loves turning the ball over 239 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 4: a ton. Houston has a lot of problems that were 240 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 4: masked up early, not anymore. We'll see what happens with 241 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 4: the receiving corps what have you. But that offensive line 242 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 4: is terrible and Stroud looks a little bit gun shy 243 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,239 Speaker 4: in terms of taking his shots. And then San Francisco 244 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 4: they get McCaffrey back. That wasn't a pretty win on 245 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 4: Sunday to win, but it wasn't pretty on the other side. 246 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 4: They've got the Raiders, they've got the Browns, they've got 247 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:41,839 Speaker 4: the Patriots and Ian they got you twice winning percentage 248 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 4: for the remaining teams for the Dolphins three ninety five. 249 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 1: Wow. Well, I should say I stumbled upon it. But 250 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 1: when the Broncos lost to the Chiefs on Sunday, I 251 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 1: just was like, Oh, that's gonna come back to bite Denver. 252 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: Then I just looked at the rest of the AFC 253 00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,679 Speaker 1: and I'm like, yeah, probably not, you know what I mean, 254 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:03,319 Speaker 1: Like realistically, like you're battling the Colts right now, who 255 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,720 Speaker 1: are a mess themselves. The Bengals obviously are a threat 256 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 1: but you know when you're looking for that final wild card. Yeah, 257 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: it's not a it's not a battle Royale that you 258 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: would have hoped that it would have been. Instead, it's 259 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: just a bunch of crap in the AFC, and whoever's 260 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 1: crap floats towards the end actually may have a shot 261 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 1: at making them mostly done. 262 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 4: Oh man, boy and c As we head into week eleven, 263 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 4: what do you got ian No. 264 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 5: I'm just gonna say, like, because of yeah, what you 265 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 5: were saying, there probably is going to be a nine 266 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 5: to eight team that sneaks in, which is just kind 267 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 5: of weird to think about. 268 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, but yeah, I mean you go through Indianapolis, 269 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 4: like you said, is got the the second easiest schedule 270 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 4: remaining Miami there, uh, and then you drift up a 271 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:48,959 Speaker 4: little bit. Denver teams they have remaining have a nice 272 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 4: even five hundred record. Cincinnati's right there with them at 273 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 4: five hundred. You've got but they've got the Steelers twice, 274 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 4: They've got the Chargers, and they've got the Broncos on 275 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 4: the other side. To see common opponents on the negative 276 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 4: side for Cincinnati and Denver, they both play the Browns. 277 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:14,199 Speaker 1: Okay, well, I'll say this when Ian said, like nine 278 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 1: and eight, you know, can get you in the playoffs, 279 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 1: that isn't too surprising. What's surprising is that there is 280 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: a playoff picture right now where you don't have five teams. Remember, 281 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 1: Mike get a couple a couple of years ago, we 282 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 1: laughed because the NFC playoff picture had fourteen teams in it. Yeah, 283 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 1: you know, like there are only like two teams, teams. 284 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 3: That were off the grid. 285 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, And that's what happens when you expand the 286 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: playoffs to seven teams. Everybody is still in the playoff picture. 287 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: But the AFC right now is so bad at the 288 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: bottom that I don't know how you could have any 289 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: more than ten right now. 290 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 4: It's like the Bills running away and hiding in the East. Yeah, 291 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 4: three three win teams behind them. Yes, a little bit 292 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 4: of cannibalism there in the North with the Steelers and Ravens. 293 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 4: They'll play this week, which will be on Houston. The 294 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 4: imperfect six and four Indianapolis had their chance and went 295 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 4: and got throttled by Buffalo Tennessee and Jacksonville deplorable. And 296 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 4: then you've got the Chiefs at nine and zero, Chargers 297 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 4: six and three, the Broncos at five and five, and 298 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 4: then the hapless Raiders who should were Sanders keeps thanking 299 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 4: every time they lose. So all that to say, it 300 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 4: goes back. We've talked about it for years on this podcast. 301 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 4: Ian's new to this one with us Dan Parody's bad. Sure, 302 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 4: the striving for parity is bad because this is what 303 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:38,560 Speaker 4: we get. 304 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 1: The Bills on the tiebreaker over the Dolphins because of 305 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: the season sweep, and if they beat the Jets in Buffalo, 306 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 1: they'll have that tiebreaker and they likely will then have 307 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: a five game lead when there's only seven games remaining now, 308 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 1: you know in the National Football League regular season, at 309 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 1: least for Buffalo and the Jets, you know, for that situation. 310 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, this is this thing could be 311 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: over next week. Yeah, I mean it's yeah, it's it's 312 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 1: pretty absurd. 313 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 4: All right, let's go into the backups. Who's Buffalo running 314 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 4: out there? My prediction of Josh Allen, his MVP goes 315 00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 4: to hell because he may be's sitting down like he's 316 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 4: Peyton Manning back to to day. 317 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 3: He does the Queen's Wave and walks off. 318 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: We lost one week of preseason football and got four 319 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 1: more of it. On the back half, thanks a lot. 320 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 1: Roger Goodell all right, he's like, Huhirk, I'm dan Byer, 321 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 1: Ian Roddy's our executive producer.

We've got our waiver wire that's coming 325 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 1: up next, but we'll also dive into what happened this 326 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 1: past week and what we did say was kind of 327 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: a crappy Week ten. Christian McCaffrey's returning so much more. 328 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 1: That's next here on I want your flex welcome back. 329 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 1: I am dan Byer.

My Seahawks were off in week ten, and 331 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 1: I'm I think I had the best week amongst US 332 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 1: three because with that happened, with what happened to Mike's 333 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: Bears against New England and Ian's Jets against the Cardinals. 334 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 1: Can't help but laugh, Yeah, rough week. At least the 335 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:16,479 Speaker 1: Seahawks didn't play. That's a little bit easier for me 336 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 1: than what you guys had to deal with. 337 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 3: Ian. I'll let you go first, I got to compose myself. 338 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I also have to compose myself as well. 339 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,360 Speaker 5: I'm still I'm still upset with the Jets. But if 340 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 5: the season wasn't already over, it's it's it's over now. 341 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know at what point on the Jets 342 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:36,640 Speaker 1: side of things, like why people continue to have hope. 343 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 5: I look, anyone who talked to me this week leading 344 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,880 Speaker 5: up knew that I was saying I could easily see 345 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 5: them losing this game, and in fact I expected them 346 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 5: to lose this game. Did I expect them to look 347 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:50,159 Speaker 5: that bad? No, But this is just it was so 348 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:53,120 Speaker 5: on brand for them to get everyone's hopes up last 349 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 5: week with the win over Houston. Looked pretty good in 350 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,360 Speaker 5: the second half, like you might have figured something out, 351 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 5: and then they just come out so flat from the 352 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 5: beginning of the game against Arizona. It's just it's so 353 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 5: on brand. And now, just as a jetsman, I know 354 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 5: they're going to win against Indy next week, Like I'm 355 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,199 Speaker 5: going to put money on that game personally, because this 356 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 5: is what they do. They're going to win when it's 357 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 5: too late. Sure, that's what they do every time. 358 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 1: Well, you know, the Texans were obviously shorthanded at wide 359 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: receiver and Mike mentioned earlier some of their struggles that 360 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: they've been experiencing. But it was also a home game 361 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 1: on a short week. You get a lot of momentum 362 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 1: with that, and there's an advantage to doing that, and 363 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 1: I think people bought in and believed that, all right, 364 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,120 Speaker 1: that was the turnaround. And also people just for some 365 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:41,160 Speaker 1: reason don't believe that the Arizona Cardinals are any good 366 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 1: and it is a big faux paws on their part 367 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 1: to think that. I mean, they are truly a team. 368 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 1: Trey Benson taking up his own role, you know, the 369 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 1: Cardinals are a good squad. It was just funny for 370 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 1: me to people from people believing in the Jets, thinking like, 371 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,440 Speaker 1: all right, this is going to be the week when 372 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 1: the Jets are who they are. Nothing that's going to change. 373 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is who he is and that's who they are, 374 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,879 Speaker 1: and their coaching staff isn't good enough to change anything. 375 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 1: In Arizona, sitting there right now atop that NFC West 376 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 1: just you know, having a good old time. 377 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 3: Right And we talked about the Rams. 378 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:15,479 Speaker 4: They had an opportunity to make some noise and at 379 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 4: least keep pace, they lose to the Dolphins, your Seahawks 380 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 4: on the by watching it all transpire. But you know, 381 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 4: we don't do a lot of game prediction, right, that's 382 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 4: become a huge thing in our. 383 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:30,119 Speaker 3: Whatever. 384 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 4: Everybody's going to do their picks against the spread, whatever. 385 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 4: Jason and I do a couple on Friday and it's 386 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 4: usually all right, one or two upsets and leave it 387 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 4: at that. And I picked both the Cardinals and the Patriots, 388 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 4: and he tried to keep me from the Patriots, saying, no, 389 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:49,639 Speaker 4: you're just mad as a Bears fan. I'm like, no, 390 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 4: I'm being real, Like, there are a lot of problems 391 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 4: with this team. This is not emotional. I didn't think 392 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 4: they were that great coming in. I thought it would 393 00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:02,439 Speaker 4: look a little prettier, but yeah, you know, the guts 394 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 4: of it were still bad. The offensive line, like you 395 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 4: could go and grab all the wide receivers you want, 396 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 4: you can't protect a quarterback. He's up to thirty eight 397 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 4: sacks taken on the year after this debacle. 398 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 5: That video that's going viral of the Patriots lineman helping 399 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:17,879 Speaker 5: him up after the sack. 400 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 3: That's not agreatable. No, that's just it. 401 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,200 Speaker 4: Right, Your alignment are nowhere to be found. This guy 402 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 4: feels pity on him because you're writhing around on the 403 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 4: ground in pain because you've been hit once again. We 404 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:30,879 Speaker 4: get down into the final minutes of the game, just 405 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 4: like last week, it's a lost cause you're not moving 406 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,680 Speaker 4: the football. He's getting his ass kicked and he's still 407 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 4: in the game. And I get it. It's nineteen to three, 408 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 4: like it's the NFL. It's only a two possession games 409 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 4: like No, it might as well have been. 410 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:44,120 Speaker 3: A forty point lead. 411 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 4: The way that game played out, just an absolute disaster, 412 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 4: abject failure. Williams sixteen of thirty for one hundred and 413 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 4: twenty yards. Again, the nine sacks on the day, missing 414 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 4: wide open receivers, and like, I'd be curious, I'd love 415 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 4: to pay a couple of alignment, a couple of quarterbacks 416 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 4: to just sit with me for an hour and let's 417 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,640 Speaker 4: go through his thirty eight sacks and you decide which 418 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,360 Speaker 4: column they go on and see if we can come 419 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:13,359 Speaker 4: to some consensus. Because it's easy to blame the lineman. 420 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,919 Speaker 4: And the line line is bad, right, we saw that 421 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:20,360 Speaker 4: even you know, but even with the shuffling this week. 422 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 4: Because I don't I don't know how much of this 423 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 4: got mentioned. They were down several starters again, more shuffling, 424 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 4: but you were already faulty before that. And now your 425 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 4: game plan is still We're going to drop back and 426 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 4: pass against the team that is giving up ample yardage 427 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 4: every game on the ground, Like we talked about it, 428 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 4: and part of the breakdown, and we'll get to the 429 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 4: report card was like teams are running all over them 430 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 4: for fantasy purposes. They were a bottom five defense. Yet 431 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 4: you Roshawn Johnson sees the ball once right, You're you're 432 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,159 Speaker 4: not going and barreling in to try to get the 433 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 4: four yards on first down to make it easy setups 434 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,400 Speaker 4: for second and six or second and five or whatever. 435 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:06,399 Speaker 4: Like just flawed all around you. You watched Waldron for years, 436 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 4: and you know, you bring back Eberflus. It's a whole 437 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 4: other cluster the way the organization is run. But for 438 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 4: Caleb Williams, now it becomes the all right, He's the 439 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 4: latest in a long line of NFL quarterbacks these last 440 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 4: couple of years that gets buried based on some bad 441 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 4: coaching decisions and the development of some bad habits that 442 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 4: they then can't break. 443 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, and and and Waldron was available because 444 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 1: there was a coaching change, not that he was pried away. 445 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 1: And you know, we talked a lot about the Jackson 446 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 1: Smith and Jigbit comments as well. Bring that up, but 447 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 1: you know a lot of times they even't sought. This 448 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:47,440 Speaker 1: past week of just a refresher of the Seahawks fans 449 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,480 Speaker 1: when they found the news that, you know, the Bears 450 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,680 Speaker 1: were going to hire Waldron, and nobody was nobody was 451 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:54,880 Speaker 1: really you know, nobody was really. 452 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 4: Mad Bears fans when the Raiders hired Getsy. It's like, hey, 453 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 4: good luck with that. Yeah, fine, they took Jackson Smith 454 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 4: and jig quote basically, yeah, good luck. 455 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 1: DJ Moore has been DJ less. Yeah, you know for 456 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:09,639 Speaker 1: the last month. 457 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 3: Three catches twenty four yards in this. 458 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 1: One, yes, which isn't too far off from what he's 459 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:19,120 Speaker 1: done the previous three games. Four catches thirty three yards, 460 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 1: two catches twenty seven yards, four catches twenty yards. I 461 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:24,639 Speaker 1: do think there was something on the route that he 462 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:27,879 Speaker 1: did take off. You know, it was an awful look. 463 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: I do think something did happen there. But when everything 464 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,640 Speaker 1: else is going on around him, sometimes you don't get 465 00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 1: that leeway. You don't get that uh that that that 466 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 1: moment of grace, if you will. So it was uh 467 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: And then him and Caleb Williams bumping shoulders. I know 468 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 1: I wasn't here last week, but after the Arizona gam 469 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 1: like there, you know, Williams prying himself off the field again, 470 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,679 Speaker 1: slowly walking off, and he and Dj Moore like they're 471 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: in you know, middle school hallways and their two rivals 472 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:58,679 Speaker 1: and they bumped shoulders and nobody moves and they just 473 00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:00,679 Speaker 1: continue to walk in opposite directions. 474 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 3: Just yeah, tough, tough look silliness. 475 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 4: At this point, for Dj Moore, the one thing he can, 476 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,720 Speaker 4: you know, rest quietly on is the giant mountain of 477 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,879 Speaker 4: money that the Bears gave him this offseason, as chronicled 478 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,720 Speaker 4: so beautifully in the Hard Knocks edition of the Bears, 479 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 4: one of the top storylines in what was otherwise a 480 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:24,360 Speaker 4: nice bedtime story because corg as hell. But no cursing, no, 481 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:30,360 Speaker 4: no firings, no anything, all positivity until it's not. Patriots 482 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:32,960 Speaker 4: didn't have to do anything grandiose. I do, like Drake may, 483 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,639 Speaker 4: I think the kid can play. It's just a function 484 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 4: of all right, bringing in some more talent around him 485 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 4: and developing their Ramandre Stevenson always a solid running back 486 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:47,159 Speaker 4: when he doesn't drop it. I know that's a big caveat, 487 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 4: but again, a guy, if you give him twenty carries, 488 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:54,400 Speaker 4: he takes care of business. Not world beating, but steady 489 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,400 Speaker 4: as they go. Not much to write home about from 490 00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 4: a receiving standpoint, you know, from the Patriots side. But yeah, 491 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 4: for Chicago it's it's pretty much in the tank. Like 492 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,640 Speaker 4: we were talking about with the Rams, or I should say, 493 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 4: with the Dolphins. How much do you trust any of 494 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 4: these guys. 495 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 3: At this point? 496 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 1: I don't. 497 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,399 Speaker 3: Right Switch still going to be a starter as a 498 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 3: number two. 499 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:15,879 Speaker 4: That's gonna be a big list though, because we're starting 500 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 4: to decide we really hate, you know, I love the Drake. 501 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 4: I hate the Drake, not Drake May in this case, 502 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 4: just the old Seinfeld reference. I don't want anything to 503 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,440 Speaker 4: do with the Chicago players because once again, cole Comet's 504 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 4: also an afterthought. 505 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:31,200 Speaker 3: Sure after a couple of. 506 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 4: Monster games, like all right, they got it, they got 507 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 4: their connection. 508 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 3: Two catches, thirteen yards. 509 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,359 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey had six catches for sixty eight yards in 510 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:43,400 Speaker 1: his forty nine Ers debut, to go along with thirteen 511 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: carries and thirty nine yards. Is this a thumbs up? 512 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: Is this a thumbs down? Or is it maybe right 513 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:53,879 Speaker 1: hand thumbs down, left hand thumbs up considering the rushing 514 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:57,160 Speaker 1: wasn't too good and the receiving was no, I don't 515 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 1: want to say exceptional, but pretty good. 516 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:03,160 Speaker 4: I'll take one hundred plus total yards and and nineteen 517 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 4: touches in my return to the field. 518 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:05,640 Speaker 3: Right. 519 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,679 Speaker 4: We talked about it last week, Dan while you were 520 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,399 Speaker 4: out of Hey, if he's going to be active, I 521 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 4: don't know what I'm getting, but they're not going to 522 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 4: do it for giggles. 523 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, right. 524 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,920 Speaker 4: I mean, especially go back to when that diagnosis came 525 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 4: down and we were all going to our online medical 526 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,160 Speaker 4: the sources to try to figure out what the hell 527 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 4: they were talking about with his legs as to how 528 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 4: dire it was, right, because all the internet doctors are 529 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:32,719 Speaker 4: like those things are going to pop at any moments, 530 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:35,400 Speaker 4: like well, they're gonna find out, and if they do, 531 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:38,960 Speaker 4: he's going to have the maximum number of touches his 532 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:42,479 Speaker 4: body can withstand when he returns to the field. And 533 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:46,360 Speaker 4: you know, while it wasn't world beating again, you get 534 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 4: you get a pretty good PPR day out of Himah 535 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 4: six catches. 536 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 1: The one good thing with the forty nine ers, which 537 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 1: I again they Tampa made a nice comeback at the 538 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 1: end and Moody missed a bunch of kicks. I stated, 539 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: no more excuses. I want to see it. Fantasy wise, 540 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 1: everybody was still getting theirs, Juwan Jennings, Ricky Pierce, all 541 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 1: new names instead of what we would get with say 542 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:17,639 Speaker 1: Brandon Aiyuk being in the mix. But CMC got his Deebo, 543 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 1: Samuel got a few carries, got a few catches, George 544 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 1: Kittle cut a touchdown. Nothing dropped off. Despite the problems 545 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 1: that San Francisco or the adversity San Francisco has faced 546 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 1: so far in the first part of the year, maybe 547 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: you know there is continued more value with Juwan Jennings, 548 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 1: who had a team high eleven targets in that game. 549 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, three point fifty three for prety contract year, all 550 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:44,879 Speaker 4: of those things. So we hang a star on that 551 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 4: as we go deeper in. He's got your Seahawks next 552 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:52,880 Speaker 4: at home that came on Fox, then at Green Bay, 553 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,440 Speaker 4: at Buffalo, and then the back half of the schedule. 554 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 4: I mean, look, they don't have any They've got a 555 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 4: pretty tough road. As you go through in the Bears 556 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:08,399 Speaker 4: whatever rams at home at Miami home against Detroit, and 557 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 4: then on the road at Arizona, which could be the 558 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 4: battle for the division at that point. 559 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,640 Speaker 1: Well, well, the Seahawks are not happy with their linebackers 560 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 1: and they continue to make changes after change after change. 561 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 1: We'll see how those linebackers respond to CMC crew coming 562 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 1: up here in week eleven. Any other standouts from what 563 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 1: we had in week ten? There was there was one 564 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,160 Speaker 1: thing that that I wanted to point out. I don't 565 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 1: know if it's as as big of a deal as 566 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 1: is maybe the other scenarios that that have played out, 567 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: But what about the Denver backfield? Mike Barry gums one, Okay, 568 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 1: all right, hey, you know what perfect we could? We could? 569 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 1: We can? 570 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 3: We can leave want to it ahead? 571 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, well we'll tease it. We'll tease it ahead, Michael, 572 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 1: breakdown the Broncos backfield. Plus, we'll do our report cards, 573 00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: see how we even did, Ian did and I even 574 00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 1: set my picks into the guys, and I'll grade myself 575 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:08,720 Speaker 1: for what was a again below average week of football action, 576 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 1: especially considering what the Thursday night gave us. Hopefully we 577 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 1: were better than below average on our picks. We'll find 578 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 1: out next here and I want your flex, all right, 579 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 1: wrapping things up here on I want your flex. Get 580 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 1: Mike at Swollen Dome, find me dan Byer at dan 581 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 1: Byer on Fox, and you can get Ian Roddy at 582 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: Ian Roddy Underscore. So I teased the Broncos backfield, and 583 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 1: in fact, Mike, I thought this was going to be 584 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 1: the week the Chiefs were going to get their first loss. 585 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 1: I had talked about it where if I had to 586 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:39,440 Speaker 1: pick a game, I thought it would probably be a 587 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 1: divisional game Broncos or Raiders. And I really like Denver 588 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 1: And what do you know, oh so close, but you 589 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 1: know what they say and only in horseshoes and hand grenades. 590 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 1: But there is a takeaway from what Denver did against 591 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: Kansas City, and that may be a changing of the 592 00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 1: guard in the backfield. 593 00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 4: Well, what we've seen, we know mcglothin. At this point, 594 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 4: we know Javonte Williams, Austin estime gets his opportunity. Fourteen 595 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 4: carries fifty three yards nearer, fifty percent snapshare as time, 596 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 4: it's it's time, time for a change, nicely done. I 597 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 4: like that. 598 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 1: Good time This time man. 599 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 3: Time has come today. 600 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 4: So yeah, I mean opportunity here second half of the season, 601 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 4: Sean Payton trying to figure out where he can get 602 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 4: a jump start. And this was a guy we talked 603 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 4: about going back to the preseason, Dan thinking thinking he'd 604 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 4: have an opportunity given you know, Williams has had his 605 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 4: moments but hasn't been world beating and that you know, 606 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:46,920 Speaker 4: estimate when healthy would probably see an opportunity, uh to 607 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 4: at least make a splash. And here, I mean they 608 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 4: almost jumped up and stung the Chiefs part of it. 609 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 4: You know, it's not a huge yards per carry average, 610 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 4: but good burst, good power, good opportunity. 611 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's not a burn by any means. But 612 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 1: if they're gonna go young and they like what he's got, 613 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: you got this, you know, rookie and rookie backfield and 614 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 1: Courtland Sutton doing this thing at the receiver position. So yeah, 615 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: maybe Denver's got a little something again in the AFC 616 00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: on there that doesn't take much and at five and 617 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 1: five right now, that's good enough to get you the 618 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 1: final wild card in the AFC. 619 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, pretty good defense, right that we've Yeah, good kind 620 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 4: of cliped that off as the season went on bo Nicks. 621 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 4: There are moments where it's like, all right, it's starting 622 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 4: to come together, and then there are others where while 623 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 4: he's not down in the Caleb Williams world, there's still 624 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 4: the I could I wait for the immediate reaction shot 625 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 4: from Sean Payton when a play goes awry or you 626 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 4: know the mystery misthrow or you know, absorbs a bad 627 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 4: sack or starts running around haplessly. But he's got the 628 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,440 Speaker 4: wheels enough to at least get himself out of trouble 629 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 4: on occasion. So all that to say, you know, maybe 630 00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,400 Speaker 4: some brighter heads days ahead for that offense. 631 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 1: I know this team was blown up by the Ravens 632 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 1: the week prior. That's going to happen to you. To 633 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,000 Speaker 1: lose the close one to the Chiefs. I mean they're 634 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 1: five losses of being five and five. They lost his 635 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:13,400 Speaker 1: Chiefs Ravens, Chargers, Steelers in the Seahawks on opening Day. 636 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:16,720 Speaker 4: Feeling pretty good about that, right, four playoff teams in 637 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 4: the Seahawks circling. 638 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I like it. I like it. And they 639 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 1: beat Nos time was very good. They beat the Jets too, 640 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 1: so you've got a tiebreaker over them. But they've beaten 641 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,360 Speaker 1: who they've I guess now as we look back at 642 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:34,480 Speaker 1: the season and see where everybody is, they've beaten who 643 00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 1: they've needed to beat. And when you've got a schedule 644 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 1: that includes the Falcons and Raiders again and the Browns 645 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:44,040 Speaker 1: coming up and Colts like those are all again winnable 646 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,959 Speaker 1: games for you for Denver before you end with Chargers, 647 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 1: Bengals and Chiefs. So it could be, uh, you know, 648 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:51,240 Speaker 1: Denver's gonna want to make their hay. But if that 649 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 1: he's in the bar and it could bode well for 650 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:57,480 Speaker 1: them in the postseason. Speaking yeah, speaking of voting well, Ian, 651 00:32:57,560 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 1: how do the streaming defense is going Week ten? 652 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 5: So it was a split down the middle because I 653 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,080 Speaker 5: gave you guys to the Giants and the Bills. Now 654 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 5: the Giants will start with the bad news. The Giants 655 00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 5: only gave you three points, So I guess the glass 656 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 5: half full version of that is that they didn't lose 657 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 5: you any points, which, as we've seen with defenses, can 658 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:14,880 Speaker 5: be the case. 659 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 4: Getting run over by m Hubbard and said question my 660 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 4: contract will you yeah? 661 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 5: Exactly fifty three? Yeah. So they had some issues with 662 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 5: Hubbard on his new contracts and stuff. But you know again, 663 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 5: still three points isn't as bad as it could have been. 664 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 5: But but the Bills seventeen points, so that has the 665 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 5: potential to have one year week just having that advantage 666 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 5: in the defensive category. They had three interceptions, a fumble recovery, 667 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 5: four sacks, and a touchdown. 668 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 4: So yeah, that touchdown right away? Yeah you want to 669 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 4: talk about me? 670 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, spiking, Yeah, so that happened. I already knew the 671 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 5: Bills one was going to hit. 672 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:52,960 Speaker 3: So that's where you start getting greedy. It's like, how 673 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:54,320 Speaker 3: bad can this get? 674 00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what the flower on Flacco is off 675 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 1: in Indianapolis. Right, you have now seen the turn again. 676 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 1: People forget like Flacco for the Browns were so bad 677 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 1: that Joe Flacco just had to play a couple of 678 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:13,919 Speaker 1: good games and people forgot about everything. But he threw 679 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:17,360 Speaker 1: two pick sixes in that division or in that wild 680 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 1: card game against the Houston Texans. 681 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's also funny now to look back that he 682 00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 5: wanted over DeMar Hamlin, who Now Hamlin's been having a 683 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,680 Speaker 5: pretty good year. He has a few interceptions or Flacco 684 00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:29,719 Speaker 5: just looks the complete opposite. So not that it's like, 685 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:31,759 Speaker 5: you know, revisionist history should have been the other way. 686 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 1: But that is the funniest controversy to me, this this 687 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: Comeback Player of the Year award that that is still 688 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,120 Speaker 1: talked about. And for those of you that may be 689 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 1: listening to the podcast, Joe Flacco won it last year 690 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:49,560 Speaker 1: because of what he did and coming in and taking 691 00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 1: over for for you know, for the Browns that they're 692 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:58,360 Speaker 1: quarterbacking carousel that they had in Cleveland. But there was 693 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 1: so much hype around Tomorrow Hamlin's return from almost dying 694 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 1: on the football field and coming back and playing that 695 00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 1: they made sure that the criteria was clear now and 696 00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 1: a situation like Hamlin's would trump what Flacco did. If 697 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,799 Speaker 1: you were thinking about a comeback Player of the year, 698 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:22,919 Speaker 1: crazy that you would that you would care so much 699 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 1: about this award. I mean tomor Hamlin only played in 700 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 1: three games last year, right, you know, Like I don't 701 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:31,399 Speaker 1: I know that sounds awful considering you know again of 702 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:33,719 Speaker 1: what he went through and how awful that night was 703 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 1: and everything leading up to it and wanting it. But 704 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,759 Speaker 1: like I get it for those who were like, man, 705 00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:42,040 Speaker 1: this comeback story for Joe Flacco being on the couch, 706 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 1: I totally get it at the end. Off was like, uh, 707 00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 1: you aren't going to ruin our great story. You're not 708 00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 1: going to do it. It's not going to happen. So they 709 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:48,920 Speaker 1: changed the. 710 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 4: Rules the impact versus you know, impact capital I versus 711 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 4: lowercase I, right on the football field versus global you know, 712 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 4: messaging and everything else that he can do with Deamorrow hamblin. 713 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 4: But from a football perspective, yeah, Joe Flacco coming in 714 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 4: leading you know, the Browns, the Browns coach of the year, 715 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 4: Stefanski too. 716 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 3: For a while, he was the odds. 717 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:15,400 Speaker 4: On favorite to be the first coach fired because of 718 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,959 Speaker 4: the Deshaun Watson thing, even though really it's Haslam doing 719 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,360 Speaker 4: the hostage negotiating thing going in. 720 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 1: But yeah, well so you know, so when Flacco leads 721 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:31,120 Speaker 1: the Browns to four straight wins to close out the season, 722 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 1: they clinched the playoff birth and then he doesn't play 723 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:36,480 Speaker 1: in Week eighteen. But in the in the six games 724 00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:39,720 Speaker 1: that he played, this is again this people forget this stuff. 725 00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:45,439 Speaker 1: He threw fourteen touchdowns, he threw ten interceptions in those 726 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 1: six games. So Ian, kudos to you on the Bills pick. 727 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:52,520 Speaker 1: And now people are just wondering, like, remember Joe Flacco 728 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:54,719 Speaker 1: didn't get a starting job in the NFL, and you 729 00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 1: would think that the way that we talk about him, 730 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:58,600 Speaker 1: that he would have been a starter amongst, you know, 731 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 1: teams in the National Football coming off of what he did. 732 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 1: But the interceptions were a problem. And the interceptions are 733 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 1: a problem again. 734 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,840 Speaker 4: But it becomes the what is he compared to X, 735 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 4: Y or Z. Right in Cleveland, I think if you 736 00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:17,080 Speaker 4: pulled people even with those ten interceptions, you won games. 737 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:18,920 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I did it. 738 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 4: So did Deshaun Watson. Thing throw them out, same thing. 739 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 4: Anthony Richardson's so been so erratic and confusing. It was like, yeah, 740 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:31,360 Speaker 4: well the old adage though, dan he in the you know, 741 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:34,000 Speaker 4: backup quarterbacks the most popular guy in the world until 742 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:34,879 Speaker 4: he actually has to play. 743 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:39,840 Speaker 1: It's very true, and that the conversation al in Indy 744 00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 1: is like, Okay, if we are gonna lose, then why 745 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:44,839 Speaker 1: don't we just see what our other guy, what our 746 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 1: first round pick does have, or at least allow him 747 00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 1: to work through it if Joe Flacco isn't that much better. 748 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 1: Flacco did throw for three hundred yards excuse me for 749 00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:01,240 Speaker 1: in five the final five games that he had last season, 750 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:03,960 Speaker 1: So even though he had all those interceptions, he did 751 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 1: have the yardage in four of those games were wins. 752 00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 1: So but all right, I think about the Bills, and. 753 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 4: He also had stories and questions coming out of the 754 00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:17,439 Speaker 4: Bears thing. Not to go back to that topic, but hey, 755 00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:19,120 Speaker 4: should Caleb Williams still be the starter? 756 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:20,279 Speaker 3: It's like, what are we doing? 757 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:25,880 Speaker 1: Yeah? Anyway, good tyson bag. It's like, yes he should be, Yes, 758 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:26,800 Speaker 1: he should be the starter. 759 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 4: I want to get killed, collect my contract. I do 760 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,399 Speaker 4: not want to play behind that o line. Yes, four 761 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 4: have Shane Waldron calling plays for me. 762 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:39,960 Speaker 1: Oh man, well, all right, my game, my my games 763 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:42,440 Speaker 1: that I had Survivor took the Chargers. 764 00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 3: There you go. 765 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:45,920 Speaker 1: That was that was a solid win. My Points of 766 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 1: Palooza only provided thirty seven points. But if Yung Waiku 767 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:50,879 Speaker 1: would have made more field goals, I would have been 768 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:53,360 Speaker 1: more happy about it. But I had Saints, Falcons and 769 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 1: kind of a one going out on a limbit and 770 00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 1: what was a bad week and there were one sided games. 771 00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 1: I'm not going to kill myself beat myself up over 772 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 1: it for picking the Saints and Falcons for being the 773 00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:08,520 Speaker 1: points of loose up. I will say my Oasis pick 774 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 1: to it. Did not listen to me to slide away. 775 00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:13,400 Speaker 1: And I also realized after I did it, I go, 776 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 1: I think I did slide away in week one, so 777 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,480 Speaker 1: I've already doubled up songs. So a bad job by me. 778 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 1: But two only threw one touchdown pass, so I can't 779 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:21,840 Speaker 1: say that I cashed in on Monday Night football. 780 00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 4: Well, you wanted him to slide and get out of 781 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:27,759 Speaker 4: harm's way. Listen, go back to that interception, retrot what 782 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:30,759 Speaker 4: are you doing? Or down and towards the he's on 783 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:34,319 Speaker 4: a scramble. It's like, get down, get down. But to 784 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,759 Speaker 4: your point, Dan, and I agree with you. Hey, you 785 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:37,680 Speaker 4: do what you're gonna do? 786 00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 1: Yeap oh man crazy? 787 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:45,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, my report card was boy, I failed. I'd be 788 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 4: repeating whatever grade this week was a tough one. 789 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:50,320 Speaker 3: I mean did okay? 790 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:55,280 Speaker 4: Quarterback wise right with the four of my top five 791 00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 4: finished in the top eleven, okay, I'll take it. Not 792 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:03,799 Speaker 4: pretty running back top five only one finished in the 793 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 4: top twelve, so only as one RB one. The rest 794 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:11,640 Speaker 4: of them, including Saquon Barkley. Barkley was twenty seven in 795 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 4: that beat down. Right, didn't need him. McCaffrey, who is 796 00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 4: I had the star on sitting in the six position, 797 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:22,080 Speaker 4: finished tenth in PPR league. So we're feeling good. Wide receiver, 798 00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:26,080 Speaker 4: same thing, just awful all around. Milik Neighbors thanked. I 799 00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 4: gotta keep reminding myself when you want to talk about 800 00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:32,480 Speaker 4: Melik Neighbors, remember Daniel Jones or somebody else is throwing 801 00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:37,440 Speaker 4: him the football ergo, don't bother the others. All failures 802 00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:41,680 Speaker 4: number six and the seven. The honorable mentions were Saint 803 00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:46,879 Speaker 4: Brown and Tyreek Hill. At least he'll scored. I'm desperate here, 804 00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:48,759 Speaker 4: I need some kind of positivity. 805 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:50,439 Speaker 3: Yeah. 806 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:54,239 Speaker 4: On the hot plays, we did have George Pickens and 807 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 4: Drake London as two of our guys cold soars. Caleb 808 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:02,240 Speaker 4: Williams has said stay as far away as possible. Tony 809 00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:06,680 Speaker 4: Pollard finishes RB twenty three, so those are two wins there. 810 00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 4: And then on the Ninja list, I did have Trey 811 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:13,799 Speaker 4: Benson on the list and so he at least gave you, 812 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,319 Speaker 4: you know, enough to be in back end RB two 813 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:22,319 Speaker 4: and Tyrone Tracy finished as RB eight. Otherwise losses really 814 00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,400 Speaker 4: light up the board. Back to the wide receivers, Jefferson 815 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 4: and Cooper Cup was eighteenth. I'm not taking a win 816 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:33,920 Speaker 4: on that Diebo was twenty third. Devonte Adams finished thirty 817 00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 4: fifth in what could have been a plus matchup or 818 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:39,879 Speaker 4: at least look like one. Bresee Hall see Jet suck. 819 00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:44,280 Speaker 4: He was twenty first. Sorry, I'm taking out my anger 820 00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:45,720 Speaker 4: on you in hey. 821 00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:47,279 Speaker 3: Kyron Williams was. 822 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:50,640 Speaker 4: Twenty first, so he gave us not much of anything. 823 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:54,839 Speaker 4: The hot plays Stafford finished twenty twenty first to two 824 00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:59,800 Speaker 4: is twenty second. Aaron Jones was number nineteen, Jonathan Taylor 825 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:03,759 Speaker 4: was number fourteen, DeAndre Swift number thirty two. Again going 826 00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 4: back to this was the worst, one of the worst 827 00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:10,960 Speaker 4: run defenses in the game. Didn't matter. Bears continue to 828 00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:14,560 Speaker 4: flail along the way. So we'll take our l's take 829 00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 4: our lumps. Get ready for Week eleven as the Giant, Cardinals, Buccaneers, 830 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 4: and Carolina Panthers all take the week off. 831 00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:24,680 Speaker 1: That's a pretty good week off of teams. 832 00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:28,240 Speaker 4: I was gonna say, other than Baker Mayfield and Bucky 833 00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 4: Irving and the Cardinals. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll miss James Connor. 834 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:33,719 Speaker 4: I like watching that guy. 835 00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:38,160 Speaker 1: Sure, Marvin Arrison Junior as well. Heck Trey McBride, what 836 00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:40,359 Speaker 1: a game he had running over all of the New 837 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:41,399 Speaker 1: York Jets. 838 00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 4: This past weekend the highest yardage output we've seen from 839 00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:49,360 Speaker 4: Kyler Murray coming into the game. He only had four 840 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:51,400 Speaker 4: games on the plus side of two hundred yards and 841 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:53,440 Speaker 4: he was barely north of that in those games. 842 00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:59,160 Speaker 1: So the let me just let me just touch on this. 843 00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:04,040 Speaker 1: The we are now in the sweet spot of games 844 00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 1: in the NFL. Okay, So what the NFL likes to 845 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:09,040 Speaker 1: do is they like to load up these games. Here 846 00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:12,520 Speaker 1: in mid to late November, you have about a three 847 00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:16,880 Speaker 1: or four week push of just amazing football. Bill's Chiefs. 848 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:19,520 Speaker 1: I think is the highlight for week eleven. Once you say, Mike, 849 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:22,200 Speaker 1: is that that's fair? Yeah? 850 00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:25,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I think those two late games on 851 00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:26,839 Speaker 4: on Sunday A. 852 00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:27,400 Speaker 3: The big ones. 853 00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:32,200 Speaker 1: So to have Alan against Mahomes that that's that's what 854 00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:34,960 Speaker 1: you want, That's what your your networks want. Then the 855 00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:38,960 Speaker 1: next week forty nine Ers at Green Bay. You know there, 856 00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:43,000 Speaker 1: there's there's there's that's quite a quite a matchup. Then 857 00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:46,120 Speaker 1: the next week is your Thanksgiving week, but then your 858 00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:49,919 Speaker 1: late game. These are your two games the Thanksgiving week 859 00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:53,120 Speaker 1: on the Sunday you have Eagles at Ravens and then 860 00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:55,400 Speaker 1: the Sunday night game is forty nine ers at Buffalo, 861 00:43:56,200 --> 00:44:00,479 Speaker 1: and then the the following week, Week fourteen, the week 862 00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:07,680 Speaker 1: after Thanksgiving gives you the Chargers at Chiefs, your Bears 863 00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 1: at forty nine ers in Buffalo against the Rams Dallas 864 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:16,279 Speaker 1: in Cincinnati was also nice quarterbacking game. But things have 865 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:19,239 Speaker 1: obviously changed. But yeah, you're getting in this. This is 866 00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:21,440 Speaker 1: what the NFL likes to do with. You had it 867 00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:24,040 Speaker 1: with Eagles Cowboys last week. It kind of started last week. 868 00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:26,200 Speaker 1: Over these next two or three weeks, you get these 869 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:29,799 Speaker 1: really marquee, juicy matchups that will be salivating over. 870 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:31,640 Speaker 4: I gotta say I was really kind of bummed because 871 00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:35,320 Speaker 4: early Sunday morning, you know, with the admission that Jalen 872 00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:37,799 Speaker 4: Hurts was battling an ankle, I was really looking forward 873 00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:42,920 Speaker 4: to Cooper Rush against Kenny Pickett. For about five minutes, 874 00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:44,360 Speaker 4: I'm like, oh, it was fun. And I looked at 875 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:46,200 Speaker 4: the number, I'm like, yeah, the number hasn't moved. 876 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:49,680 Speaker 1: You weren't doing a live radio show at that time. 877 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:52,760 Speaker 1: I compared it to the eighty seven strike with scab 878 00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:57,240 Speaker 1: players when it was thirty one to six. Clayton Tune 879 00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:59,080 Speaker 1: was in the game, Kenny Pickett was in the game. 880 00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:02,120 Speaker 1: Trade Lancers and the game it was Yes, it. 881 00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:04,000 Speaker 5: Was that bad Clayton dude. 882 00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:04,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. 883 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:04,919 Speaker 4: Yeah. 884 00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:08,040 Speaker 1: And the Jets weren't pulling Rogers. That was like the 885 00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:10,280 Speaker 1: funny thing, like he was still in the game. That's 886 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:13,000 Speaker 1: suing it. Yeah, all right, did we get everything? Okay, 887 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:14,719 Speaker 1: we get did our report cards? Waiver wire? 888 00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:16,759 Speaker 4: Yeah, we'll just do a quick waiver wire as we 889 00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:22,320 Speaker 4: run through. H estimate obviously is number one. We've got 890 00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:25,080 Speaker 4: Jalen war and we want to look at as well, 891 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:28,440 Speaker 4: a little bit deeper tight end position. Johnny Smith, who 892 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:30,279 Speaker 4: you saw running over people. That was one of my 893 00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:33,640 Speaker 4: highlights as Smith and I did the show and reacting 894 00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:36,960 Speaker 4: Dan on Monday nights. Like tack League still sucks in 895 00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:40,000 Speaker 4: week ten, like what should have been like a six 896 00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:42,520 Speaker 4: yard game becomes him barreling his way all the way 897 00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:44,640 Speaker 4: down to the the one yard line. 898 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:47,640 Speaker 3: What are we doing bouncing off multiple defenders? 899 00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:49,760 Speaker 4: How about someone actually trying to tackle him it instead 900 00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:52,000 Speaker 4: of doing the I'm gonna run my shoulder into you. 901 00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:53,200 Speaker 1: Who needs that? 902 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:56,640 Speaker 3: My bother Tyler Algier still out there. 903 00:45:56,680 --> 00:45:59,319 Speaker 4: He had a nice big game for Atlanta and that's 904 00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:01,760 Speaker 4: always the George card. He's owned in fewer than fifty 905 00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:05,239 Speaker 4: percent of leagues. I don't understand why. Well, you know 906 00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:08,040 Speaker 4: the one two punch and just insurance, right, I know 907 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:12,439 Speaker 4: benches are shorter, but still the commitment there. We talked 908 00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:16,080 Speaker 4: Trey Benson a little bit earlier, so move on from him. Obviously, 909 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:20,680 Speaker 4: Russell Wilson this week has a massive plus advantage matchup 910 00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:24,719 Speaker 4: available in about two thirds of leagues. Still, look, I 911 00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:29,120 Speaker 4: still have some very big questions about the Pittsburgh offense. 912 00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 4: But between Warren and Harris, the running the football more 913 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:35,680 Speaker 4: effectively the last month. The moon ball from Wilson is 914 00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:37,560 Speaker 4: it always going to be on target? Is always going 915 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:39,440 Speaker 4: to be right now, But you get an opportunity and 916 00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:41,840 Speaker 4: you get a chance. And this week that Ravens defense 917 00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:44,719 Speaker 4: is terrible. Right, you know, we did a deep dive 918 00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:46,680 Speaker 4: a little bit. You know, everybody keeps trying to ah 919 00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:48,960 Speaker 4: the Chiefs lucky this that whatever. It's like, you know what, 920 00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:51,719 Speaker 4: they don't have an obvious, huge deficiency like the rest 921 00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:53,840 Speaker 4: of every other team in this damn NFL. 922 00:46:54,239 --> 00:46:55,960 Speaker 1: Yes, that's very true, you know what I mean? 923 00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:59,920 Speaker 4: Like, all right, Ravens, the offense is great, that defense stick. 924 00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:02,400 Speaker 1: I hired somebody on Monday be like Ravens are going 925 00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:04,920 Speaker 1: to kill the Steelers, So why would you think that, Yeah, 926 00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:09,320 Speaker 1: they can't stop anything right now, So why would you 927 00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:11,799 Speaker 1: think all of a sudden they're going to destroy Pittsburgh 928 00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:16,239 Speaker 1: who probably can handle Lamar Jackson, you know, I mean 929 00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:18,560 Speaker 1: they could figure out Away or Derrick Henry. 930 00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:21,080 Speaker 3: Did you like the Jayden Daniels. 931 00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:24,840 Speaker 4: Uh? When folks tried to and Mike Talblin was like, 932 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:27,440 Speaker 4: all right, he's setting Lamar Jackson up. 933 00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:30,319 Speaker 1: I think put a stop to it. Yeah, really a. 934 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:34,000 Speaker 4: Right, So Ricky Piersoll into the mix with Sam Franz. Uh, 935 00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:36,320 Speaker 4: that's kind of the wing and a prayer. Hey, maybe 936 00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:39,239 Speaker 4: there's something here we can look at. Going back to Pittsburgh. 937 00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:40,719 Speaker 4: Mike Williams, he's not going to get a lot of 938 00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 4: opportunity opportunities, but if you're looking for the home run threat, 939 00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:47,279 Speaker 4: and certainly for daily fantasy, he's a guy you want 940 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:48,239 Speaker 4: gonna want to keep an. 941 00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:50,919 Speaker 3: Eye out for week to week. Uh. 942 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:56,040 Speaker 4: And I think that's it's a short list of really mustads. Otherwise, 943 00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:59,560 Speaker 4: you know, you start digging deeper into you know, Gus 944 00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:02,680 Speaker 4: Edward came back, and you know the Chargers are going 945 00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:04,399 Speaker 4: to want to run the football they're getting better play 946 00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:06,440 Speaker 4: out of it. Herbert the last couple of weeks, no 947 00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:09,840 Speaker 4: question about it. But the run is still going to 948 00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:13,160 Speaker 4: be the identity. So maybe you add him, wondering if 949 00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:15,719 Speaker 4: there's there are some weeks where he suddenly becomes the 950 00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:20,880 Speaker 4: bell cow once again. Johnston's been in play as well, 951 00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:24,400 Speaker 4: with them winging the ball a little bit, but otherwise, 952 00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:29,880 Speaker 4: you know, it's the situational football. The obvious must must 953 00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:33,799 Speaker 4: pickups necessary aren't really there at this point, thinning out 954 00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:35,399 Speaker 4: as we get to week eleven. 955 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:37,719 Speaker 1: All right, well, just like my playoff hopes are in, 956 00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 1: a lot of my fantasy leagues are fitting out. We 957 00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:42,839 Speaker 1: will end it there. Our quick little last segment just 958 00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:45,560 Speaker 1: took twenty minutes. Hey, but we had. 959 00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:47,920 Speaker 3: Fun get him on, get him over, get him in exactly. 960 00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:50,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so this is good times.
