I 9 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,400 Speaker 5: would say we're more successful than the NFC South. 10 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 2: Yes, that's it. Were better. 11 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 3: I think we can make plays in the NFC South person, 12 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 3: I think we could hit a couple holes, make a 13 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 3: couple of catches, like I can do what Kyle Pitts does. 14 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 3: Two for twelve every week. 15 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:45,599 Speaker 2: No problem.

You can probably hear 24 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 6: the alarm going right over the top of my right 25 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:20,960 Speaker 6: shoulder here, as it is something absolutely unprecedented for us. 26 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 6: We have this game on the closest game, the Philadelphia 27 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 6: and Buffalo game.

Amazing. 42 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 4: I thought it was good for team morale. We used 43 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 4: to have fire alarms all the time over at our coman. 44 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 2: God forsaken building. 45 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,919 Speaker 3: I think it was built on an ancient Indian burial, 46 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 3: old ye Pall Center. 47 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 4: It was a weekly and it was a nice time 48 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 4: to see your coworkers. This was a little different because 49 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 4: we were going out into the parking lot where the 50 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 4: Chargers and Ravens Sunday night football game, the fans were 51 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 4: getting ready for it, and it smelled like old Qualcomm 52 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 4: out there. The weed was a little bit. 53 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 3: Of a funk in the air, and then a mixture 54 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 3: with the sausage and the peppers and the onions and 55 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 3: it just cooking all around us. Reminded you of what 56 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 3: we have sacrificed to be here in the studio all 57 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:47,079 Speaker 3: these years. 58 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: And yet and everyone on their phone watching the game, 59 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:50,519 Speaker 1: and yet. 60 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 3: Us going outside that building when there's a seventy thousand 61 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 3: fans streaming in without our bodyguards also major security risk 62 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 3: for us, but we were okay with that as well, 63 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 3: and in the end everything worked out. 64 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 2: I still don't know what the issue was, but. 65 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 5: The issue feels mildly faked meal though. If fire truck 66 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 5: did pull up at one point, I think costs about 67 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 5: twenty thousand dollars for the company when that happens. 68 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 3: How about the old Trojan horse where the fire truck 69 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 3: pulls up and then a bunch of like firefighters go in, 70 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 3: but they're not really firefighters. 71 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 2: One of those deals. 72 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 5: Oh that's a shore like a water Gate operation. 73 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,640 Speaker 2: We're not safe right now? Right? Fun? Not so fun? 74 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 2: Is all this happening during one of the games of 75 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 2: the year. 76 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,920 Speaker 3: Eagles Bills were able to kind of stay with the 77 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 3: game on our iPhones and whatnot, But when we got 78 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 3: back in the building, it was chaos on that field 79 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 3: with some dramatics and yes, yet another Billy victor. 80 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 7: First ten at the twelve, Perks and the gun Swift 81 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 7: COEs in motion. 82 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 8: Perks on a quarterback draw, he's at the five, he's 83 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 8: in touchdown. 84 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 2: Eagles at my hurts? Does are you killing me? 85 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 9: Are you kidding me? 86 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 1: He's amazing. 87 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 10: No, there's a party that Liga Financial Field. 88 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 5: At theles of ten and one. 89 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 7: I want to win, You're wins. 90 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 2: You're all invited. There's a part here at Lica Financial Field. 91 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,599 Speaker 2: Oh the bongos to the Eagles. 92 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,840 Speaker 3: A little bit of a bounce back from producer Eric 93 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 3: after last week. 94 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 5: Kind of noble of Eric. He's a Bills fan in. 95 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 3: Right, bowing his head and saying, I dishonored the bongos 96 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 3: last week, and to show you how important they are, 97 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 3: I'm going to hand them out to the team that 98 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 3: maybe just ended my team season. 99 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,280 Speaker 2: That's pretty good producer Eric. 100 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 9: At job bigger than sports, guys at jobs bigger than sports. 101 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 3: There is the call from Eagles Radio and it was 102 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 3: dramatic indeed, because the Eagles, once again trailing at halftime, 103 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 3: find a way getting a fifty nine yard field goal 104 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 3: from their gifted kicker, and then Jake Elliott, and then 105 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 3: after giving up a field goal in overtime, and then 106 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:11,919 Speaker 3: very near touchdown by the Bills, and a little bit 107 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 3: of a miscommunication between Josh Allen and his receiver, Eagles 108 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 3: take the ball, go right down the field and yes, 109 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 3: Jalen Hurts moves the Eagles to ten and one. 110 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 2: Drama. What a game. 111 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 4: This is just one of the best games of the 112 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 4: season and one of the most confounding teams I can 113 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,719 Speaker 4: think of, because you give them all the credit in 114 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 4: the world for finding a way to win each one 115 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 4: of these games. But they're the rich Man Steelers right now. 116 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 4: They have been out gained by at least one hundred yards, 117 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 4: not just outgained, outgained by at least one hundred yards 118 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,919 Speaker 4: in four straight games, and they found a way in 119 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 4: each one. And it's a heartbreaker for the Bills because 120 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 4: they got their best from Josh Allen. I thought, God 121 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 4: mode Josh Allen, who had some setbacks in this game. 122 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,279 Speaker 4: I know he had the inners, but James Bradberry made 123 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,280 Speaker 4: an incredible play on that one play. And what did 124 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 4: he do to respond to that interception? He went on 125 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 4: a go ahead touchdown drive late in the fourth quarter. 126 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 4: He answered Phillies couple of early touchdowns on the third 127 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 4: quarter with his own Touchdownder, I don't want to hear 128 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:17,159 Speaker 4: anything about Josh Allen. He was very likely the best 129 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 4: quarterback in the NFL today. And yet the Bill's defense, 130 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 4: their best with all their injuries, might just not be 131 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 4: good enough because they were great in the first half. 132 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 4: They stymied Jalen Hurts to you know, under fifty yards passing, 133 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,280 Speaker 4: and in the second half when their defense or their 134 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 4: offense was doing enough, at one point they give up touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, 135 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 4: three and out game tyn field goal touchdown, And there 136 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 4: was just no resistance at the end. And he just 137 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 4: felt like Sean McDermott is spinning all these wheels on 138 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 4: the dial defensively and they weren't going to get any pressure. 139 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,479 Speaker 4: And you give Hurts all the credit in the world 140 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 4: of being able to bounce back from that first half 141 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 4: of the. 142 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 10: Wow. 143 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 5: I mean the first half by Allen and Buffalo's defense 144 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 5: was it, Jase. It gave me signals and ideas that 145 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 5: this was the game that Bills fans were waiting for, 146 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,119 Speaker 5: and it just did not complete. I think of little 147 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 5: moments like the James Cook drop on what would have 148 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 5: been a very clear touchdown early no points on that. 149 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 5: There was the moment where Hassan Reddick absolutely launched Josh 150 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 5: Allen to the ground, ripped his jersey. It looked like 151 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 5: a horse caller. Uh, they don't get that call. Instead 152 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 5: they called Josh Allen for intentional grounding. Then Jalen Carter 153 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 5: blocks of Bills would be field goal. It's like these 154 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 5: little moments where it's like against Philadelphia in a raucous 155 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 5: downpour in Philly, you gotta almost be perfect, and they 156 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 5: were perfect in so many ways, but then you let 157 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 5: the Eagles back in in that second half, and it's 158 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 5: like the Eagles are imperfect to look at they were, 159 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 5: they are not the version of the Eagles we saw 160 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 5: last year at this time in the regular season, but 161 00:07:58,080 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 5: you can't let them back in because they win two 162 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:01,679 Speaker 5: many different ways. Will always make the play. 163 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 3: The Bills having winning time of possession of this game 164 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 3: had over. 165 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 10: For reminder that the Ravens and Chargers game is coming 166 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 10: up at eight twenty two Eastern on NBC. 167 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 2: Thank you, Jim. 168 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 3: The time of possession forty minutes and thirty seconds in 169 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 3: favor of the Bills. Total plays ninety two to sixty five, 170 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 3: total yards five TOHO five to three seventy eight. And 171 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 3: yet here are the things that stand out to me 172 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 3: everything Mark just said an allan interception in this game, 173 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 3: and allan miscommunication with his receiver who was a Gabe 174 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 3: Davis on an optical illusion from where our camera viewpoint 175 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 3: was in overtime where it looked like it was going 176 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 3: to be a walk in touchdown and instead in a 177 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 3: choice route, the wide receiver goes one way, Alan throws 178 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 3: it the other way, and then it's the defense. And 179 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 3: it's like two things I hated about the way. And 180 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,559 Speaker 3: I know Eric agrees, you have a three point lead 181 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 3: at the end of regulation. Why does it feel like 182 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 3: to me that you're conceding the tie at that point 183 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 3: in the game. You're playing very safe, You're letting the 184 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 3: Eagles move right down the field into field goal position. 185 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 3: It's almost like you're attempting. We don't want to lose 186 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 3: this game, and if we can get if we can 187 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 3: get out of this with a tie, it's a win. 188 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 3: And yes, of course Elliott makes an amazing kick, so 189 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 3: you can't kill the Bills, But I just didn't like 190 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 3: how easily they let him into field goal possession, and 191 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,559 Speaker 3: then in overtime you get the field goal to go ahead. 192 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 2: Okay, even after the miscommunication, make a play. You need 193 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 2: to make a play. 194 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 3: You need to recover a fumble, you need to have 195 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,959 Speaker 3: an interception, you need von Miller stops spinning around near 196 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 3: the line of scrimmage. 197 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 2: You need to get a sack and be the closer. 198 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 3: Again, they could not make a play, and that's why 199 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 3: their season is in great peril. 200 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:51,960 Speaker 5: Net it's on the brink. They have a buy, then 201 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 5: they have the Chiefs. After that. I you know, Greg, 202 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:56,079 Speaker 5: I know one thing true of your nuts, and I'm 203 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 5: with you that after Jake Elliott made that fifty nine 204 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 5: yard field goal, the Bills had time a little bit 205 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 5: of time where they could have at least taken a 206 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 5: shot down field to try to return and answer on 207 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 5: their own. And they don't. 208 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:09,679 Speaker 4: They don't even do anything. They had twenty seconds. You're 209 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 4: the Buffalo Bills. Your best chance to ever win the 210 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 4: Super Bowl was ended by a drive shorter than twenty seconds. 211 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 4: Like you had a time out, you also used one 212 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:23,200 Speaker 4: of your timeouts to supposedly ice Jake Ellie. 213 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,439 Speaker 1: You're not gonna ice him. He's in the rain. That 214 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: gave him more power. He may not have make it 215 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: if you didn't nice. Let's see. 216 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,319 Speaker 3: Let's hear that call, by the way, from Merril Reeves 217 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:36,319 Speaker 3: Jake Elliott in the rain in late November in Philadelphia. 218 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 3: I mean, these kickers are better than ever and the 219 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 3: Kickers Club is gonna be hopping tonight for Jake Elliott. 220 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 2: Let's hear that call. 221 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 8: He swings the leg with the same speed whether it's 222 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 8: an extra point or sixty order. 223 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 2: Let's see what he does here. 224 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 5: Hold your breath, ball a spot, the kick is away, and. 225 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 2: The kick is that's going over Tom. 226 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 5: He is amazing, He amazing. 227 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 2: What a kicker. 228 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 1: Now, that's one of the all time kicks. 229 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 4: I mean it's not gonna top you know Vinitari's one 230 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 4: in the in the snow and regulation against the Raiders. 231 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 4: But that is since we've been doing this show one 232 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 4: of the most impressive kicks I've seen to do it 233 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 4: in that spot and also have the knowledge that on 234 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 4: the other side of the ball is Tyler Bass, Who's 235 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 4: you know, a good kicker. I would say a top 236 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:31,079 Speaker 4: ten kicker usually has a kick blocked in this rain, 237 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 4: hooks a kick in this rain, and I'm thinking, man, 238 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 4: this is tough conditions to be kicking in. 239 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 1: And Elliott pipes it from fifty nine. 240 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 4: It would have been good from sixty and it just 241 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 4: like so many one players would have changed the result 242 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 4: potentially of this game. And you can always go back 243 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 4: and do that. But ultimately, like the Eagles, best players 244 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 4: made huge plays when it mattered, and Jake Elliott is 245 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 4: one of those. Because for everything that you said, yep, 246 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 4: Dan about them, you know, being a little too conflict, 247 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 4: I I hear you that joeyaln Hurts was incredible, Like 248 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 4: multiple things can be true. He made so many great 249 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 4: plays in the second half of this game after playing 250 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 4: a little paniced in the first half, including that third 251 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 4: and fifteen throw where Zakias made a great. 252 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,679 Speaker 1: Play to catch that touchdown right. 253 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,960 Speaker 4: But the reality is, if Elliott doesn't hit that fifty 254 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 4: nine yarder. The last sequence from the Eagles was, you know, 255 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,200 Speaker 4: one of their best players, Kelsey, having a penalty hurts 256 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 4: them actually making pretty good pressure and hurts getting rid 257 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 4: of the ball, almost fumbling it, but he got rid 258 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 4: of the ball first and fifteen. 259 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: Then they run the ball, kind of waste some time. 260 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 4: Then another penalty on Kelsey, and then aj Brown catches 261 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 4: a ball that almost was a fumble incomplete on third down, 262 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 4: right right call, but like things could have changed, and 263 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,199 Speaker 4: if he catches that, they would have had a fire 264 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 4: drill to have to try to kick that thing. And 265 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 4: they're third and set, fourth and seventeen there because they 266 00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 4: didn't execute offensively. But that's what this Eagles team is about. 267 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 4: Even though the defense was not good on this day, 268 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 4: they made just enough plays too. 269 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,319 Speaker 3: I was referring greg though to uh at the point 270 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 3: getting once it got to the other side of the fifty, Okay, 271 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 3: then they why it just didn't think didn't see they were. 272 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,319 Speaker 1: Trying to that time off the clock, and it didn't 273 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:17,200 Speaker 1: work that At. 274 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 5: One point though, the Bills were almost perfect on third 275 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 5: and long, it was like they kept getting out of jam, 276 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 5: getting into jams and getting out of them too, and 277 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 5: it really came down to just like a handful of 278 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,440 Speaker 5: plays in this thing. I mean, it's like it looked 279 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 5: in the first half to me like the rain and 280 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 5: the terrible weather was affecting one team and not the other, 281 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 5: and that was it was like I was surprised that 282 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 5: that was Philadelphia, that it was affecting and then they 283 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 5: come climbing back into it. 284 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, there were a couple of miscommunications too, and like 285 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 4: there there was another throat that Alan Allen's receivers sold 286 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 4: them out. They they were close so many times. We 287 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 4: should point out the Eagles got bad news before this game. 288 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 4: Lane Johnson didn't suit up, which is extremely rare. 289 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 2: Uh. 290 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 1: Then Fusher Cox left in the middle of this game. 291 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 2: M hmm. 292 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 4: Jalen Carter was going in and out. So they they 293 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 4: found way despite those injuries. 294 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, and again another reminder that the Ravens and Chargers 295 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 3: game is coming up at eight twenty two Eastern on NBC. 296 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:12,320 Speaker 2: Thank you. 297 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 5: As a group, Yes, we were equally mystified why that 298 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 5: announcement was made. I say, buckly twelve to thirteen times. 299 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 3: We we've we surmised that it had something to do 300 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 3: with the game running late and the agreement in place 301 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 3: with the Sunday night football coverage on NBC, and yet 302 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 3: it didn't stop being annoying it. 303 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 5: I think it was annoying to Nance after a point too, 304 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 5: the skift happens. 305 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 11: You cannot, Oh my god, you cannot lose that game, Buffalo. 306 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 5: No, that's and yet it's a killer. 307 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 3: And yet I have love for you Bills fans because 308 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 3: in the back of my mind, I'm like, Josh Allen's 309 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 3: gonna win this game. 310 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 2: He had, He's playing so great, But somehow. 311 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 3: They find a way. They're an organization, They're one of 312 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 3: those teams starcross teams. They always seem to find a 313 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 3: way in the round. 314 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 5: How high the pressure is dialed up when they come 315 00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 5: out of their by with Kansas City and Dallas and 316 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 5: back to back game, so. 317 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 2: Right, they had to have this game. I think their 318 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 2: season's over. 319 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 4: I don't think it's over because I think we saw tonight. 320 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 4: You know how good they can be offensively, and I 321 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 4: think they can be better defensively than this. 322 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 1: They didn't close the game. 323 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 4: But I do agree that the specter of both these 324 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 4: teams schedule is hanging over this game. Because Philly's got 325 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 4: San Francisco in Dallas next and if they had lost 326 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 4: this game, it would have felt like, oh wow, suddenly 327 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 4: the Eagles are actually in a little bit of trouble. 328 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 4: But they just don't let that happen. It's amazing, and 329 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 4: they get a little lucky. I mean, I had to 330 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 4: have it missfield goals on the other side, is a 331 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 4: little lucky that them making a mistake offensively is a 332 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 4: little lucky. 333 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 3: All right, here we go save that because on NFL 334 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 3: Plus tomorrow, Greg, we're gonna talk this game as well. 335 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 2: Bill's Eagles just start. 336 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 5: We'll say all different things tomorrow. 337 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 3: All right, let's head to another great ending, this one 338 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 3: in Houston. 339 00:15:55,720 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 12: From the left hash from fifty eight yards away, Matt 340 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 12: Ammndola trullid, Maddie. 341 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 13: Johnson puts it down. There's the kick, the fifty eight 342 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 13: yard field goal. Is it hits the crossbar? It is 343 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 13: no It hit the crossbar and came back. 344 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 2: The field goal is no good and. 345 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 1: The Jags takeover. 346 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 8: It'll take a knee one time. 347 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 2: Wow, great call by Frank Franzi. W O kV. It 348 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 2: was that close. 349 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 3: Ramon Doolan the Texans, but it is the Jacksonville Jaguars 350 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 3: who come out on top twenty four to twenty one 351 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 3: in a matchup between two young star quarterbacks from the 352 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 3: AFC South. It was Trevor Lawrence who had the big 353 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 3: day here three hundred and sixty four yards added a touchdown. 354 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 3: And I don't know if that's changed since the final, 355 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 3: but out of nowhere, Greg, the Jags were the number 356 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 3: one seed in AFC after this win. 357 00:16:58,120 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 2: Is that still where they stand? 358 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:03,120 Speaker 4: That is not where they stand by tiebreaker because of 359 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 4: the Chiefs, But it's a way a four way tie 360 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 4: as we're taping, but a three way tie really Chiefs 361 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:09,400 Speaker 4: in Miami. 362 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 1: And this game had had everything. 363 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 4: It had what felt like almost a clinching win here 364 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,119 Speaker 4: for the AFC South for the Jaguars, going up to 365 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 4: with five to play is massive. The quarterback play, for 366 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 4: the most part, was fantastic. There was some really questionable 367 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:28,440 Speaker 4: play calls by both sides, just ones that didn't work out. 368 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 4: Doug Peterson going for and all or nothing touchdown on 369 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 4: the last play of the first half that didn't work out. 370 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 4: The Texans with some very strange short yardage QB calls 371 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 4: in shotgun with no chance of running the ball, explosive plays. 372 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 4: But when the Jaguars got the ball there at the 373 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 4: end of this game, or rather when the Texans had 374 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,360 Speaker 4: the ball late in this game and they're driving. It's 375 00:17:55,440 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 4: one eighteen left and c. J. Stroud has the ball 376 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 4: and he's on the thirty seven yard line of the Jaguars, 377 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 4: I'm thinking, well, this is overtime or it's a touchdown. 378 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,199 Speaker 4: What's gonna happen? And what happened was what's happened in 379 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 4: a lot of Jaguars games this season. Josh Allen happened 380 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 4: the other Josh Allen. Both Josh Allen's with fantastic days. 381 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 4: This one can celebrate though. He gets the split sack 382 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 4: on the first play, and he had so many big 383 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:23,159 Speaker 4: plays in this game two and a half sacks. 384 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 1: That puts him in a long yarded situation. 385 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 4: They have a couple incompletions and then they have to 386 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:30,880 Speaker 4: go for this long field goal, and it just felt 387 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 4: like CJ. Stroud was in like I'm gonna go back 388 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 4: there and make a play mode, and they had a 389 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 4: lot of plays go against him. It was a terrible 390 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:41,719 Speaker 4: officiating game, but he couldn't make the plays. Ultimately, on 391 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 4: those two long yarded situations, they don't get it, and 392 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 4: the Jaguars are probably gonna be your AFC South champions. 393 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 5: And their defense is one of the unpredicted surprises of 394 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 5: the entire campaign. And I mean Josh Allen seems to 395 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:56,880 Speaker 5: do this all the time, and Stroud has been a 396 00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 5: masterful quarterback late in games with his game winning drives, 397 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,159 Speaker 5: and it's like I was watching the Sudie Gar I 398 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 5: had the feeling like, oh, they're not going to be denied, 399 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 5: and like something about the Texans feel inevitable with Stroud 400 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 5: and instead like their defense. Jacksonville's defense completely stood up 401 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 5: and did his job. 402 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 1: One of those games where like c J. 403 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 4: Stroud hit a fifty eight yard or early to Tank 404 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 4: Dell that was called back on a totally bogus illegal shit. 405 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 4: I thought Row was insane, totally insane, and it reminded 406 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 4: me of the touchdown he had a Dell a week ago. 407 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:31,679 Speaker 4: And it just started like a cavalcade of bad calls. 408 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 4: There was a holding they totally missed a defensive holding 409 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 4: call on a Trevor Lawrence interception, and then there were 410 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 4: multiple pis on the Texans that kept drives going for 411 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,720 Speaker 4: Jacksonville and some no calls late in this game that 412 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 4: were just insane and it was distracting and it was 413 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:52,879 Speaker 4: annoying because like, you just wanted to enjoy this game. 414 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:54,960 Speaker 4: And I did think maybe Stroud because he's hit so 415 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 4: many of those plays lately and you can't fault him 416 00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,400 Speaker 4: at all. But it was just like an I'm gonna 417 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 4: hold the ball for and try to make a play mode. 418 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 4: There wasn't as many plays in rhythm. His three point 419 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 4: eight time to throw was the longest by any quarterback 420 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 4: all season in a game, and it worked a number 421 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 4: of times. He was twenty six for thirty six for 422 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 4: three zero four. But they didn't quite finish their drives. 423 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 4: That's why they only finished with twelve points. 424 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 3: I mean totally can see they split their head to 425 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 3: head matchups, right, So we have that a two game 426 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 3: lead with what six to play, where we had now one, two, three, 427 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 3: four five, Yeah, six to play, So they have a shot. Obviously, 428 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,639 Speaker 3: the Texans still take this division. I don't trust the 429 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 3: Jacks still. However, I think we should point out because 430 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:39,639 Speaker 3: we did have some conversations about Lawrence that that this 431 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 3: is around the time last year. Remember this is when 432 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 3: the games counts after Thanksgiving, where he got really hot 433 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 3: and he helped carry that team and they even made 434 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,399 Speaker 3: noise in the postseason. So keep an eye on what 435 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 3: Lawrence does here. He's he has six touchdowns in the 436 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:56,159 Speaker 3: last two weeks. Now maybe it's his turn to get 437 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 3: a little shine here in the division. And what's been 438 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 3: kind of a CJ. Strouds story this year. 439 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 5: He's been the story. I mean, there is a huge 440 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 5: matchup looming next week between the Broncos and Texans, but 441 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 5: I kind of like the Texans schedule in general. They've 442 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,120 Speaker 5: got the Jets and the Titans after that. I think 443 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:15,920 Speaker 5: they're like absolutely wild card worthy and some weird stuff 444 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,120 Speaker 5: is happening in the AFC in general. But we'll see 445 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 5: about the division. 446 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 4: That their total lack of a threat of running killed 447 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:23,919 Speaker 4: them in this game. They like refuse to run it 448 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 4: on third and one, fourth and one. Singletary got most 449 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 4: of the stats, even though Damian Pierce was back, but 450 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 4: they combined for thirty two yards on eleven carries. 451 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: CJ. 452 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 4: Stroud was their leading rusher, also at a rushing touchdown. 453 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 4: Like they are a little limited, and there were moments 454 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 4: in this game I thought Lawrence played a good game, 455 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 4: but I thought it was a great game plan by 456 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:50,440 Speaker 4: the Jaguars because there were wide open receivers multiple times, 457 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,440 Speaker 4: kind of on busts, just on like swing passes, they're 458 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 4: tight end rumbled for a forty seven yard play, like 459 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 4: Kirk was wide open right before the half for a 460 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 4: fifty seven yard play. Lawrence is like completion percentage of overexpect. 461 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 4: It was actually like a negative three point six in 462 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 4: this game. I think he played well because in the end, 463 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 4: like Ridley dropped a long touchdo in the end, they 464 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 4: went outside and they went deep, and that's what I've 465 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:13,360 Speaker 4: been asking them to do all year and they did 466 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:15,639 Speaker 4: it with success. So I can't fault them. But I 467 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:17,479 Speaker 4: think it was just a good aggressive game plan by 468 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:18,160 Speaker 4: the Jaguars. 469 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,720 Speaker 3: Trevor Lawrence, C. J. Stroud, Anthony Richardson, who obviously had 470 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 3: a promising rookie season cut short by injury. There are 471 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,399 Speaker 3: some there's some good young talent in this division, and 472 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 3: Trevor Lawrence doesn't like it. 473 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 14: I want the teams in our division to be as 474 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 14: bad as possible, So no, I'm not. That's how I 475 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 14: see it, And the way they're playing it's exciting. Yes, 476 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:40,880 Speaker 14: there's gonna be some I'm sure some great matchups down 477 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 14: the road, and CJ's playing, He's playing lights out. He's 478 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 14: doing a great job. I mean, to be a rookie 479 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:46,879 Speaker 14: and to play how he is. I got a lot 480 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:48,119 Speaker 14: of respect for him. I know that, I know how 481 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 14: hard it is. You know, I've been in that position. 482 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,679 Speaker 14: So he's doing a great job and it's gonna be 483 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:55,679 Speaker 14: fun for years to come hopefully. So But no, I mean, 484 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 14: I wouldn't prefer that. I'd prefer I'd prefer if you know, guy, 485 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 14: the guys in our division didn't have good quarterbacks and 486 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 14: be better for us. 487 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 5: But you know what I like about him, Like you 488 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,679 Speaker 5: got these quarterbacks coming out in like four thousand dollars 489 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 5: three piece suits. He's like in a dented hoodie and 490 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:12,880 Speaker 5: like an orange hat with his long hair hanger. 491 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 3: That made me think of him saying I prefer that 492 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 3: the division sucks. I don't know if you guys caught it, 493 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,400 Speaker 3: which I agree, i'd be the same with. I don't 494 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 3: know if you caught Alex Smith on the ESPN this morning, 495 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 3: ethering everyone at the DAIS. They were having a conversation 496 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 3: about Tom Brady's comments that the league feels watered down 497 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 3: and the play is not at a high level. And 498 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 3: Alex Smith was like, whoa, stop the clocks here, Tom, 499 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 3: you played in the AFC East and that is that 500 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 3: was a terrible division your entire career. And then it's like, oh, 501 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,680 Speaker 3: there's Rex Ryan on the dais, there's Teddy Bruski, there's 502 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:51,919 Speaker 3: Randy Moss, and they're all like hamanahamana. But good for you, 503 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 3: Alex Smith. I like that he said that. 504 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:59,640 Speaker 5: I mean, I think Tom Brady's overall point is well conceived. 505 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:01,160 Speaker 2: Is Alex Smith? Yeah? 506 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:04,439 Speaker 4: Yeah, But it's also the most cliche thing, like lazy 507 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 4: thing for an old ex player that's really not paying 508 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 4: that close attention to the game to say. And Alex 509 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 4: Smith is lazy too. Because the Patriots, I love throw 510 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:14,679 Speaker 4: this one. I had a higher winning percentage against the 511 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:16,159 Speaker 4: rest of the league than they did and then their 512 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 4: own division throughout their run. 513 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:18,159 Speaker 2: How about that? 514 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,880 Speaker 3: Like that sounds like a Greg fact. Can we check 515 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 3: that one? You know, some of these Willing Hilly facts 516 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 3: are thrown out lately. It's true his winning percentage was 517 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:28,360 Speaker 3: higher outside the AFC's. 518 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,280 Speaker 4: They were both were extremely high. I was like six 519 00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:32,439 Speaker 4: sixty whatever it was. They were basically the same. But 520 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:33,440 Speaker 4: they were slightly. 521 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:34,159 Speaker 2: Better on a data dive on that. 522 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:36,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, they were slightly better outside the division. 523 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 4: You know, those Dolphins gave them troubles down and they 524 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 4: dominated everyone. 525 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 1: Was the point. 526 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 4: It's not like anyone outside the division was doing any 527 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:44,679 Speaker 4: better whatever. 528 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 7: All right, next, Rashid in motion, here's car now wants 529 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 7: to throw in or sept he's got great grass forty 530 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:01,880 Speaker 7: fifty forty. 531 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 1: Twenty straded out Jesse touch. 532 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:05,119 Speaker 2: Down Atlanta. 533 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 1: And New Orleans commits their first ret zone turnover of. 534 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 2: The year, and it wouldn't be their last. 535 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:23,440 Speaker 3: On Sunday, the call there West Durham w ZGC. 536 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 2: Good call. 537 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 3: Derek Carr threw a pick six, Taysom Hill later lost 538 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 3: to fumble at the ten yard line, and the Falcons, 539 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 3: opportunistically on defense keep themselves in the game. 540 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 2: On the same day that Desmond. 541 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 3: Ritter was doing his usual high wire act that included 542 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 3: falling off a few times. But in the end, a 543 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:49,400 Speaker 3: Ridder touchdown passed the Bijon Robinson gave Atlanta breathing room, 544 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:51,199 Speaker 3: and they held on for a twenty four to fifteen 545 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 3: win over the Saints, a win that puts the Falcons 546 00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 3: into a tie in first place. With the Saints at 547 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 3: five and six. That tells you a lot about what 548 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,680 Speaker 3: you need to know about the NFC South. It's not good. 549 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 3: The football in this game was not very good, but 550 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:11,679 Speaker 3: it was fun and sloppy and ultimately you could sense 551 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 3: the tension and the bad blood between these teams, which 552 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:19,360 Speaker 3: is famous. This was a game though, that we'll get 553 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 3: the people in New Orleans fired up because it was 554 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 3: the ultimate saintsy game on offense. 555 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 5: Yeah. I mean, this is your concern about the Derek 556 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 5: Carr experience in general, because you're going to get some highs. 557 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 5: He's a tough player, but the lows are going to 558 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 5: cost you. They were zero for five in the red 559 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:41,119 Speaker 5: zone today in general, and I guess from a Falcons angle, 560 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 5: you know, we've waited for a game like this, which 561 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 5: seems to be more the blueprint that they were hoping for, 562 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 5: with two hundred and twenty eight yards on the ground, 563 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 5: Bejon Robinson running all over the place. But the problem is, 564 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,360 Speaker 5: I think we have enough evidence to suggest and tell 565 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,920 Speaker 5: us that Desmond Ritter is just going to keep costing 566 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 5: you one way or another and is exactly who they 567 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:01,640 Speaker 5: are right now. 568 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean. 569 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 3: You have to Arthur Smith has been under fire for 570 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 3: this whole season, and I don't think that's going to 571 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,640 Speaker 3: change after this game. But they did seem to finally 572 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,159 Speaker 3: understand a few things, making sure to get Bije on 573 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 3: the ball, who went over one hundred total yards and 574 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 3: had two touchdowns in this game. 575 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:20,680 Speaker 2: It needs to drive through him. 576 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 3: Enough of this silly business about all we want to 577 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 3: keep him fresh. It's late November, it's time. They also 578 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 3: kind of de emphasized Tyler Algier. They gave Quarterell Patterson 579 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 3: some work and they found a nice balance because Patterson 580 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:35,879 Speaker 3: did some work in this game, Bijeon made his plays, 581 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 3: and then when it was time to close out the 582 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:39,960 Speaker 3: game in the fourth quarter, it was Algier who had 583 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:43,840 Speaker 3: some tough runs that helped chew up the clock and 584 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 3: take this thing home. So there is something to be 585 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 3: said for Atlanta's ability to make those stops because it 586 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 3: was a crazy those stops in the red zone, because 587 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 3: the Saints moved the ball pretty well in this game. 588 00:27:58,200 --> 00:27:59,880 Speaker 2: In fact, I believe they punted once. 589 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 4: One hundred and forty four total yards. Right, Falcons defens 590 00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:04,440 Speaker 4: has not been playing well in general. 591 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 3: So they were kind of going up and down the 592 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 3: field until they got into the red zone. And I guess, 593 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 3: on the subject not accusing you guys of this, but 594 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:15,399 Speaker 3: on the subject of laziness, it's I think it's very 595 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 3: easy to just point a Car and be like he's 596 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,119 Speaker 3: the reason. But then you watch the games and you 597 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 3: see what a team effort it is. It's rahiit Shahi 598 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:25,480 Speaker 3: dropping a ball at the goal line. It's Car obviously 599 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 3: throwing a bad pick six to Jesse Bates, and then 600 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 3: it's Taysom Hill trying too hard to get extra yardage 601 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 3: and him fundling fumbling it. It's penalties along the offensive 602 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 3: line that are pushing them out of the zone. And 603 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 3: all these things are coming together and making a vicious 604 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 3: stew of this team that is just not putting it together. 605 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 3: And yes, you're gonna hear more I would imagine about 606 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 3: Jameis Winston potentially coming in. But I guess my point 607 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 3: is there's there's more guys that aren't playing sound football 608 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 3: on this offense. 609 00:28:56,400 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 2: Here's Dennis Allen on his quarterback, some some good and 610 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 2: some bad. 611 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 15: You know, you know, obviously I got to go back 612 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:08,400 Speaker 15: and look at the interception to see exactly what happened 613 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 15: on that look I knew Bates was a really good player, 614 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:15,320 Speaker 15: and it's not the first time he's made it play 615 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 15: like that. So I thought there were some plays that 616 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 15: that that Derek made, and I think there were some 617 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 15: plays that you know, we'd like to have back. 618 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 3: And I agree with that assessment, and you could and 619 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 3: and it's it's fair that Carr needs to be better 620 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 3: and maybe this is just who he is, but it's 621 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 3: a very frustrating watch. 622 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 16: Well. 623 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 4: His defense is a total disappointment. The only difference with 624 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 4: the Falcons running attack today, it's not like they gave 625 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 4: it more to Bizon really or anything. It's just like 626 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 4: they were good at it. They've been bad at it 627 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 4: all year. They haven't been getting a consistent push on 628 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 4: their offensive line, they haven't been getting consistent yardage. And 629 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 4: whoever was running the ball back there got it done. 630 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 4: And so if you're getting pushed around defensively, that's not 631 00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 4: what Dennis Allen wants. He he he played everything in 632 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 4: the red zone on like penalties and in the turnovers today, 633 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 4: but they've been sloppy in the red zone all year. 634 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 4: Alave got hurt in this game. He had a concussion 635 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 4: right and he'd left in this game, and they already 636 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 4: put Lattimore on injured reserve right before the game this weekend, 637 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 4: and Thomas is uninjured reserve. They were the healthiest team 638 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 4: in the NFL going into a couple of weeks ago, 639 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 4: and now they're suddenly catching the injury bug at a 640 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 4: bad time, and it is I think the fans are 641 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:27,320 Speaker 4: out for blood. 642 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: I don't think anyone people. 643 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 4: Aren't thrilled with Derek Carr, but they're I think the 644 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 4: anger is mostly focused at Dennis Allen. 645 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think they've wanted Dennis Allen gone since last season. 646 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: A cents they got that. 647 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 3: I think it's interesting also that like and again, I 648 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 3: think Carr is one of those guys. Some guys struggle, 649 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 3: and it's seemed globally like what's wrong with this offense? 650 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 3: For some reason, sometimes I feel like he becomes just 651 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 3: the guy everybody points to. 652 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 4: It's the eye test, but to me is the ultimate 653 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:57,480 Speaker 4: eye test guy that that like, he's he's a frustrating watch. 654 00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 3: I agree with that frustrates me endless, Like, but why 655 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 3: don't we why aren't we hearing things about their play 656 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 3: calling in the red zone? 657 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, Pete Carmichael didn't even want to be quarterback? 658 00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:12,200 Speaker 3: Is there a car That's that's my point. He is 659 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 3: a lightning rod, That's all I'm saying. 660 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 5: Car is too heavily scapegoaded because other quarterbacks around the 661 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 5: league right now are playing at no higher level. But 662 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 5: there's something about the Derek Carr like experience. I think 663 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 5: a lot of it is early on his career. You 664 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 5: could shape his performances statistically to the picture of a 665 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 5: better quarterback than he seems to be when you're watching him. 666 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 4: And Carmichael has been take you know, locally, I don't know, 667 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 4: you know, I'm locked into the Saints coverage, but like 668 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 4: they're they're tired of everything about this team. But Carmichael 669 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 4: takes a ton of heat this year locally. He's not 670 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 4: someone who obviously is getting much attention astally. 671 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 1: The crazy in this division. 672 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 4: I mean, podcasts are free, freely available, the websites are available. 673 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 1: You check it out. 674 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 4: But you are going to be dragged through this because 675 00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 4: it's like none of this is going anywhere. They're both 676 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 4: five and six, The Bucks are four and four, four 677 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 4: wins on the season, and like this this is gonna 678 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 4: be a crawl to the finish, and there's gonna be 679 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 4: more of these days and like, you're not gonna be 680 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 4: like led out of this. 681 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 1: They're gonna be in it to the end. All these teams, 682 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 1: one of. 683 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 5: Them is gonna be the fourth seed. I mean, that's 684 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 5: at an outrage. 685 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 3: Shout out to Honey Badger, who had two picks in 686 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 3: this game and Jesse Bates, who I said had we 687 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 3: heard had the pick six and also had the punch 688 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:25,840 Speaker 3: out on Taysom Hill. It's a two point game at 689 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 3: that point with the Saints poised to take the lead. 690 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 2: I believe it was the fourth quarter. 691 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 3: Uh, and he punches that ball out and that was 692 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 3: as close as the Saints came in this game. 693 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 2: So a huge win for the Falcons. 694 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 3: Ridder, I'll let me just say Ritter also played another 695 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 3: Ritter esque game in that about deep into the second quarter, 696 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 3: you're saying, oh, wow, he's having his best game. Then 697 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 3: he has a miserable red zone interception, throws another bad 698 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,040 Speaker 3: pick and this just is just this, like this y 699 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 3: yin and yang with him. 700 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 2: I don't think he's a. 701 00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 3: At this point a playoff quarterback, but you can understand 702 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 3: why Arthur Smith is going to stick with them moving forward, 703 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 3: all right, up next, we roll on to Cincinnati, where 704 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 3: the Steelers got to face a Joe Burrow free Cincinnati 705 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 3: team desperate for a win. 706 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 10: Bengals third and three empty the set from there thirty two. 707 00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 10: They're two for eight on third downs a trio thirteen 708 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 10: to seven. Brownie pinches the left receiver, big rush, he 709 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 10: is crist fight. 710 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 2: TJ. Watt? What what was that? A freak train? No? 711 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 2: It was number ninety. 712 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:36,040 Speaker 12: Wow is about all you can say? 713 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 2: Was here? Was he blocked there? 714 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,480 Speaker 5: Not by a functioning human? 715 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 15: Oh? 716 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 2: Wow? All right? So TJ. 717 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 3: Watt with a crushing hit on Jake Brown in one 718 00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 3: of several big plays by the Pittsburgh defense in a 719 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:58,000 Speaker 3: sixteen to ten win over the Bengals. Pittsburgh now seven 720 00:33:58,040 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 3: and four, and there they are, the Bengals with ol 721 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 3: Joe Burrow, five and six and winless in their division. 722 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 2: It all adds up to very bad news in Cincy. 723 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 3: But for Pittsburgh, mark progress another win, and also the 724 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,880 Speaker 3: offense did something today that they had never done under 725 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:16,759 Speaker 3: the previous offensive coordinator of Matt Cande. 726 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, it was a Joe Burrow free game for the Steelers, 727 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:22,840 Speaker 5: but a Matt Canada free game also for the Steelers 728 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:28,280 Speaker 5: and incomes Mike Sullivan, longtime NFL assistant, to call the plays, 729 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 5: and for the first time in forty fifty eight games, 730 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:34,840 Speaker 5: they cracked four hundred yards and give them some applause. 731 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:36,880 Speaker 5: Deserve it. 732 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:40,879 Speaker 4: We were like knee deep in the pandemic season when 733 00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 4: the last time year, I mean. 734 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 5: Week two of twenty twenty, how much must it suck? 735 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:49,319 Speaker 3: Early showing legitimate empathy here for Matt Canada, who maybe 736 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:52,480 Speaker 3: wasn't great at his job in Pittsburgh, but he's probably 737 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:54,240 Speaker 3: a little down on the dump sitting on the couch 738 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 3: watching the games and did fifty eight games as their 739 00:34:57,800 --> 00:34:59,480 Speaker 3: OC I believe the number was, and never got four 740 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 3: hundred two. Immediately watched the team that just fired him 741 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 3: cross that threshold. You gotta have some second thoughts about 742 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 3: some decisions you've made. 743 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:09,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, like, had it come three weeks from now, it 744 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:12,880 Speaker 5: would feel and look days out immediately. 745 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 4: He's probably also a little salty that, like, they had 746 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 4: the hardest schedule in the league by far for offenses, 747 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:21,480 Speaker 4: in terms of opposing defenses, and then they played the 748 00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 4: team that's giving up the most explosive plays in the 749 00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:26,000 Speaker 4: league and can't stop anyone on the ground late in game. 750 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,400 Speaker 4: Then again, the Steelers only scored sixteen points, which is, 751 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:29,520 Speaker 4: oh yeah, so that's the thing. 752 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:34,320 Speaker 5: Like it from a yardage standpoint, I thought Pickett played 753 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,400 Speaker 5: a pretty good game. You know, he's actually snapped the 754 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 5: Steelers franchise record for contexts and consecutive passes without an interception, 755 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:45,239 Speaker 5: so he's not giving the ball away. There were more 756 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:49,840 Speaker 5: big shots downfield. Uh, Pat Fryarmuth made a huge difference. 757 00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 5: He had one hundred and twenty yards off nine catches. 758 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:53,760 Speaker 5: I mean, he was or of the of the offense 759 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 5: Najie Harris ninety nine yards and a touchdown. And then 760 00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 5: I'm we played the TJ. Watt highlight because he does 761 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 5: this every week. I mean, he ended two drives with 762 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:07,279 Speaker 5: like titanic crushings of Jake Browning, who is just a guy. 763 00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 5: He's Jake Browning was not helpless, and he's not really 764 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:13,760 Speaker 5: entirely the reason that they're going to lose these games. 765 00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:16,279 Speaker 5: He can move a little bit on his feet. He 766 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:18,759 Speaker 5: had one or two nice drives. But it's like you're 767 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,319 Speaker 5: just watching the ghost and the husk of a team 768 00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 5: that we thought could go to the super Bowl. 769 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, the defensive you know, issues have been there. You know, 770 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:28,799 Speaker 4: they're zero to four in the division, they're one and 771 00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:30,879 Speaker 4: six in the conference now. A lot of those games, 772 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:33,840 Speaker 4: obviously most of them are with Joe Burrow, so they 773 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 4: had issues. But it's depressing to feel like the Bengals 774 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:39,680 Speaker 4: at five and six are already basically out of our 775 00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 4: lives for the season. 776 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:41,240 Speaker 1: Zach Taylor. 777 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 2: You know, I gotta bring up Zach Taylor a little bit. 778 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 1: Four and twenty in starts without Joe Burrow as. 779 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:48,680 Speaker 5: Bengals, Well, and it looked like it today and part 780 00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 5: of it Bill Delchick and starts without Tom Brady there, 781 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:53,800 Speaker 5: four and fifty. 782 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:56,600 Speaker 4: Well, during those during that stretch, and they were they 783 00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:58,800 Speaker 4: were great, right, They went three and one with Jimmy 784 00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 4: g and Jeoey Brissett went eleven and five with Matt Castle. 785 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:03,359 Speaker 4: That during that stretch they were great. 786 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 5: They look doomed because if you're gonna have Jake Browning, 787 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:07,839 Speaker 5: to the truth, you gotta be able to like. 788 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 2: I'm just saying, you can't go after Zach Taylor. 789 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:13,400 Speaker 4: Yes, in that way when I'm just my point is 790 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:14,719 Speaker 4: they're probably not gonna be winning. 791 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 2: Of course, they're gonna suck without Joe Burrow. 792 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, come on, well, yeah, I mean, you know, I 793 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:22,920 Speaker 5: predicted before the season that the Steelers would have twelve wins. 794 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:25,480 Speaker 5: If they accomplish that, it will be done in the 795 00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 5: most milk toast fashion possible, because I. 796 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:29,200 Speaker 1: Know it's maybe they'll get better. 797 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:31,960 Speaker 5: I mean, their defense is legit. I I think it's 798 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:33,880 Speaker 5: encouraging what they did on offense, but I don't I 799 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:35,399 Speaker 5: need to see it weeks in a row to buy 800 00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:35,799 Speaker 5: into it. 801 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,279 Speaker 3: I'm kind of The division is a little bit of 802 00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 3: a bummer from where it was a month ago because 803 00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:44,920 Speaker 3: Cleveland and we'll talk about them later, is just kind 804 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:47,960 Speaker 3: of a mess now because their quarterback position. The Bengals 805 00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 3: are more or less out of it as we know, 806 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:52,759 Speaker 3: Pittsburgh is even with this game. It's so it's not 807 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:55,160 Speaker 3: like it's like pinch me watching this offense. And then 808 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 3: you have the Ravens. 809 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:59,759 Speaker 2: Of course they're hanging around though. Seven and four, yep, 810 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 2: anything else. 811 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 9: I have something, guys, if we're going to go and 812 00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:05,520 Speaker 9: we got a break here, a little bit of housekeeping, yes, 813 00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:09,160 Speaker 9: you know, coming in a phrase.

That's right, that was a big win for. 816 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:16,640 Speaker 5: The Cincinnati this week. 817 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:19,759 Speaker 4: Yeah, wait to bring that up, But that's good because 818 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:21,799 Speaker 4: he would have had a conspiracy theory if we forgot. 819 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:23,399 Speaker 9: I don't want to get too far down the road. 820 00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 9: And then I forgot at the circle. 821 00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:28,479 Speaker 1: Back doubly annoyed watching the end of that game. 822 00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:31,960 Speaker 3: I gotta say, the zoo with the zoo keeper, Nick 823 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 3: Wrestling got the magic touch. 824 00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:36,240 Speaker 5: Three. 825 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:39,799 Speaker 2: It's not over, Greg, not not at all. 826 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:42,320 Speaker 1: And think of these late wins he had the Eagles 827 00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:42,920 Speaker 1: last week too. 828 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,560 Speaker 5: With these late I mean we did eradicate the entire competition. 829 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:48,319 Speaker 2: He's it's a great, incredible start. 830 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 5: Canceled the competition for Nick. 831 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,279 Speaker 3: All right, let's take a break and then we will 832 00:38:54,280 --> 00:39:02,279 Speaker 3: bring in another Nick.

Led us head to Denver, 835 00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:14,960 Speaker 3: where the resurgent Broncos look to keep it up against 836 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:15,719 Speaker 3: the Brownies. 837 00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 12: Second down goal from the two Javonte Williams to the 838 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 12: right of. 839 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:21,839 Speaker 2: Russell, two receivers on each side of the set. 840 00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 12: He brings MEM's emotion. He keeps it again, running to 841 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 12: the right side Wilson leaps into the end zone, touchdown. 842 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:34,839 Speaker 12: Denver three quarterback keeps on this drive Wilson from three 843 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:35,720 Speaker 12: yards out. 844 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:36,759 Speaker 10: Are you kidding me? 845 00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:39,720 Speaker 17: Are we looking at thirty four year old Russell Wilson 846 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,240 Speaker 17: or twenty four year old Russell Wilson. 847 00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 2: Oh, David Logan with a call he didn't like that. 848 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 2: Russell Wilson ran. 849 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:54,400 Speaker 3: For a touchdown and threw a touchdown pass and that 850 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:57,280 Speaker 3: was kind of a vintage Russ throw later in the game, 851 00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 3: giving the Broncos the extra cushion in a twenty nine 852 00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:06,720 Speaker 3: to twelve win over the Browns. Let's welcome in the pipe, 853 00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:12,799 Speaker 3: Nick Shook, and Nick, you had a Browns team here 854 00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:16,840 Speaker 3: that is struggling at the quarterback position and a Denver 855 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:20,480 Speaker 3: team that cannot stop winning all of a sudden. This 856 00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:23,320 Speaker 3: is one of the more surprising developments of the season. 857 00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 18: We are witnessing an absolute attitude shift in Denver. 858 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:27,920 Speaker 2: Guys. 859 00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 18: This is a team that started one to five and 860 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:32,760 Speaker 18: got a you know, seventy burger dropping them by Miami. 861 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:34,200 Speaker 5: They look like a team that had no life. 862 00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 2: Sean Payton was a disaster. 863 00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:37,240 Speaker 18: Russell Wilson was over the hill, and all a sudden, 864 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:39,960 Speaker 18: they started winning some games, key'd mostly by their defense, 865 00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 18: But now it's all coming into form. Now if you 866 00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:44,120 Speaker 18: look at the stats, you'll think, well, Russell didn't didn't 867 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:46,160 Speaker 18: really do that much. We didn't have to do that much. 868 00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:48,440 Speaker 18: I mean, the defense played really well for the most part. 869 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:52,719 Speaker 18: The ground game was fantastic against the NFL's scariest defense, 870 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,600 Speaker 18: and they put a bit together a complimentary win that 871 00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:59,279 Speaker 18: only further emphasized this turnaround that's happening in Denver right now. 872 00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:01,880 Speaker 18: They're six and five, and frankly, if they play like 873 00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:04,000 Speaker 18: this guy's on a weekly basis, and especially in the 874 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:05,319 Speaker 18: road where they haven't been as good as they've been 875 00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 18: at home, then we're talking about a Denver Broncos team 876 00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:09,399 Speaker 18: that's gonna end up in the playoffs. That's how good, 877 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 18: that's how strong they look right now. They play with 878 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:15,279 Speaker 18: an attitude, they out physical the Browns. Russell Wilson's got 879 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:18,360 Speaker 18: a nice streea games played together here, everything's just starting 880 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:20,359 Speaker 18: to come together. It's really pretty for the first time. 881 00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:21,280 Speaker 18: It's twenty fifteen. 882 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,520 Speaker 2: The Broncos. They matter, and they play like that matter. 883 00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:25,000 Speaker 2: It's fun. 884 00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:27,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, this was a great coaching job by Sean Payton. 885 00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:31,080 Speaker 5: They talked about coming into the game wanting to remove 886 00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:34,719 Speaker 5: Miles Garrett, who was ineffective in this game and then 887 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,560 Speaker 5: could not lift his left arm for the most of 888 00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:40,160 Speaker 5: the second half. Oh no, no, see what's going on there? 889 00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:42,520 Speaker 5: It did not look good to me. They came in 890 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:44,840 Speaker 5: the Browns without Denzel Ward, who I think is a 891 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:48,200 Speaker 5: huge part of this Jim Schwartz defense, No Anthony Walker 892 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:52,600 Speaker 5: and Denver you know, showing zero fear about the Cleveland 893 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:55,680 Speaker 5: Browns defense. Ran the ball right up the gut of 894 00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:59,080 Speaker 5: Cleveland's d like from the start. They had one hundred 895 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,640 Speaker 5: yards before the first half ended. Wow, Russell a lot 896 00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 5: of it. And the reason I think that you got 897 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:05,439 Speaker 5: that comment about Russell Wilson looking like the old Russell 898 00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:07,759 Speaker 5: Wilson is that the element of his game that's been 899 00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 5: missing in the earlier parts of this season and last 900 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,320 Speaker 5: year was the mobility and the guy on the ground 901 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:14,719 Speaker 5: who can affect you. And I thought he did a 902 00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:17,719 Speaker 5: nice job against Cleveland on the ground today and they 903 00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:20,160 Speaker 5: you know, if you're Cleveland, you're going into the game 904 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 5: with Dorian Thompson Robinson at rookie who's still learning on 905 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 5: the job. He gets absolutely destroyed by Baron Browning, he was, 906 00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:32,280 Speaker 5: you know, lights out, a concussion time, bloody lip removed 907 00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:32,719 Speaker 5: from the game. 908 00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:33,040 Speaker 1: PJ. 909 00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:36,360 Speaker 5: Walker comes in and for both of these quarterbacks, I 910 00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:39,800 Speaker 5: thought that tell tell me if you thought Kevin Stefanski 911 00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 5: did some weird stuff in this game, they got way 912 00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:44,399 Speaker 5: too cute. They didn't stick with what was working, which 913 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:46,400 Speaker 5: I thought they ran the ball pretty well early, they 914 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:48,440 Speaker 5: got away from it to all these sort of trick plays. 915 00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:51,799 Speaker 5: One that cost them dearly on a terrible fumble, and 916 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,040 Speaker 5: you got like, how many drops in this game and 917 00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:57,680 Speaker 5: how many bad David Djokhu plays that put their quarterbacks 918 00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,400 Speaker 5: into a terrible situation because they were hanging around until 919 00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:01,399 Speaker 5: the floor fell out late. 920 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:03,480 Speaker 18: Yeah, they actually had a chance to put together a 921 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:05,759 Speaker 18: comeback before dtr got hurt and even after he got 922 00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:07,919 Speaker 18: knocked out of the game. That's where the two sides 923 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:10,520 Speaker 18: of Kevin Stefanci's coin really came into play. Because you know, 924 00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:12,480 Speaker 18: Greg has talked about this, and I totally agree that 925 00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:14,400 Speaker 18: Kevin Stefanski has done a great job of coaching them 926 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:16,759 Speaker 18: in certain situations and getting guys open, especially with everything 927 00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:18,879 Speaker 18: they're dealing with a quarterback. But there's been many other 928 00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:20,560 Speaker 18: instances in which he's tried to be the smartest guy 929 00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:22,440 Speaker 18: in the room and he's gotten way too cute. So 930 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:24,120 Speaker 18: as soon as dtr comes out of this game at 931 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,320 Speaker 18: the start of the fourth quarter, you got PJ. Walker 932 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,480 Speaker 18: back there, who, by the way, is not an NFL quarterback. 933 00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 18: We can all agree on that at this point, and 934 00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:33,000 Speaker 18: they run a reverse. They run a reverse that starts 935 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:35,200 Speaker 18: with Elijah Boor in the backfield. He tosses the ball 936 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:37,440 Speaker 18: to Pierre Strong, who lined up as a receiver and 937 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:39,279 Speaker 18: he's a running back in case for those who don't know, 938 00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:41,680 Speaker 18: he's a running back, and he did not catch that pitch. 939 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,360 Speaker 18: It was a fubble. Denver goes down scores. It's a 940 00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:46,960 Speaker 18: backbreaking touchdown, and the Browns go from being in a 941 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,279 Speaker 18: position where they're winning the game on the ground and 942 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:51,200 Speaker 18: they're really close to tying it up or taking the 943 00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:53,680 Speaker 18: leader because they were only down five points at that moment, 944 00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:55,480 Speaker 18: to suddenly being completely out of it because you know 945 00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:56,960 Speaker 18: that PJ. Walker is not going to throw them to 946 00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:58,920 Speaker 18: a victory. And as soon as he got another opportunity, 947 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,959 Speaker 18: he was overwhelmed, overmatched. I would have blitzed the living 948 00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:04,880 Speaker 18: daylights out of it. Much like the Broncos did creative pressure, 949 00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,200 Speaker 18: just a great coaching job on both sides of the ball. 950 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:10,719 Speaker 18: They out schemed Jim Schwartz's defense. A lot of the 951 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:13,680 Speaker 18: runs were just excellently designed. They attacked the perimeter, they 952 00:44:13,719 --> 00:44:16,160 Speaker 18: won the perimeter. The Browns missed those guys on defense, 953 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,200 Speaker 18: no doubt, but they were just the better team both 954 00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:21,360 Speaker 18: in execution and in coaching. And Kevin Stefanski did himself 955 00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:24,080 Speaker 18: zero favors with trying to be the smartest guy in 956 00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:25,240 Speaker 18: the room in certain situation. 957 00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:28,080 Speaker 3: Here would be because we're seeing it at the Metal 958 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:30,560 Speaker 3: Lands right now too. My concern about the Browns mark 959 00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:33,359 Speaker 3: you do you agree that as good as the defense is, 960 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:36,040 Speaker 3: if the offense is going to be stuck in mud, 961 00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 3: it's going to be a lot of three and outs 962 00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:41,400 Speaker 3: or just a bad field position, and you're going to 963 00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:44,920 Speaker 3: continue to put the d into difficult situations and eventually 964 00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:47,240 Speaker 3: the damn cracks when you keep doing that. The offense 965 00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:49,200 Speaker 3: needs to be more giving them more right now. 966 00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:53,239 Speaker 5: Yeah, it reminds me of the loss to Baltimore. It's 967 00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 5: the worst possible situation for Cleveland that this is what 968 00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:57,680 Speaker 5: it is going forward to. And I think you get 969 00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:01,680 Speaker 5: to a point where the injuries have mounted. Like I mentioned, 970 00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:04,719 Speaker 5: no Denzil Board and we'll see what happens with him. 971 00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:07,120 Speaker 5: Amari Cooper went out of this game. I'm really concerned 972 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:09,040 Speaker 5: to hear about what happened to Miles Garrett. You don't 973 00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:11,920 Speaker 5: have Nick Chubb, you lost your starting quarterback, you lost 974 00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:18,040 Speaker 5: Jack Conklin, Jederick Wills, Marcius Goodwin, Rodney McCleod, your second quarterback, 975 00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:20,680 Speaker 5: Jacob Phillips, jackiem Grant, and we'll see what happens with 976 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:22,279 Speaker 5: the rest of these guys. It's like you're just down 977 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,759 Speaker 5: to the point where too many positions are vulnerable and 978 00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:27,560 Speaker 5: you can't just rely on defense to continue to stack 979 00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 5: wins here. 980 00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:30,000 Speaker 4: Well and to your point like teams will see that 981 00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:32,560 Speaker 4: and a couple of times that the Browns defense hasn't 982 00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 4: looked great, it's because of. 983 00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:34,840 Speaker 1: The run defense. 984 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 4: I'm not going to put them giving up one hundred 985 00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:39,560 Speaker 4: yards rushing in the first half on their quarterback. So 986 00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:42,600 Speaker 4: it's so hard for a defense to be that dominant 987 00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:45,040 Speaker 4: every single week. You're gonna need some weeks for your 988 00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:48,239 Speaker 4: offense to pick him up. And I can't expect the 989 00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:51,759 Speaker 4: Broncos defense to stay this good because it's just a 990 00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:54,800 Speaker 4: little crazy. But since that Jets game that was where 991 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:56,799 Speaker 4: I know they lost the next week on Thursday Night 992 00:45:56,800 --> 00:45:59,160 Speaker 4: Football to the Chiefs, but that game was actually, you know, 993 00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:01,640 Speaker 4: reasonably close. They kind of bottomed out in that Jeff's 994 00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:04,759 Speaker 4: game where they gave up thirty one points. They've give 995 00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:09,359 Speaker 4: averaged sixteen and a half points allowed. That's over a 996 00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:13,000 Speaker 4: six game stretch here, and they've forced let's count them up, 997 00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:15,960 Speaker 4: they had twelve turnovers and three games coming to this week, 998 00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:19,120 Speaker 4: so that's fifteen turnovers they forced in the last four weeks. 999 00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:20,239 Speaker 1: That's pretty outrageous. 1000 00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:22,520 Speaker 4: Like, yeah, Sean Payton's doing a great job and they're 1001 00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:25,680 Speaker 4: limiting mistakes and they're really playing complimentary. But Vance Joseph's like, 1002 00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:27,920 Speaker 4: got this group playing great. It's pretty crazy. 1003 00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:30,959 Speaker 3: We uh, six weeks ago, I think it was work 1004 00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:33,760 Speaker 3: the Denver BRONCX whoops sailed who have now won five. 1005 00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:36,719 Speaker 2: Games in a row. So keep an eye on again 1006 00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:37,799 Speaker 2: the bottom of these guys. 1007 00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:40,200 Speaker 4: That a record for us, like for someone to like, 1008 00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:42,680 Speaker 4: don't I don't actually think they are in the playoffs 1009 00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:45,120 Speaker 4: as of today, just because of tiebreakers, right like that 1010 00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:47,160 Speaker 4: for the quickest for a team to get back in. 1011 00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:50,839 Speaker 4: It's a problem position that after getting forged, But you. 1012 00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:53,239 Speaker 3: Gotta you gotta give them credit because like Nick said, 1013 00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 3: and we got to move on. But to start the 1014 00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:59,280 Speaker 3: season the way they did, and that with that historic 1015 00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:00,440 Speaker 3: seventy burd you're. 1016 00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 2: Like to now be on a five game winning streak 1017 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:03,520 Speaker 2: and be right in the mix. 1018 00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:04,239 Speaker 9: Uh. 1019 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:06,640 Speaker 3: Credit to everyone involved there, and let's see if they 1020 00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:09,360 Speaker 3: keep it up. And that was the Sunday Drive presented 1021 00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:12,920 Speaker 3: by Toyota Let's Go places learn more at Toyota dot com. 1022 00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:16,440 Speaker 3: Slash Grand Highlander. Speaking of teams on a streak, remember 1023 00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:19,399 Speaker 3: the Colts were like, oh, the Colts are back there. 1024 00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:22,520 Speaker 3: They're in that number seven spin still around. And not 1025 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:26,200 Speaker 3: only are they still around, they are very much in 1026 00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:30,759 Speaker 3: playoff contention to Indie we go shotgun stat for Mayfield 1027 00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:33,600 Speaker 3: in the pocket, the ball stripped, the ball is out 1028 00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:35,840 Speaker 3: gone around the thirty eight yard line on. 1029 00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:43,040 Speaker 11: The recovery by Tyo at tang Bo and a strip 1030 00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 11: sack by steps. 1031 00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 4: That someone's been drinking, like gets home tonight from the 1032 00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:56,160 Speaker 4: flay his wife, It's like, how is the game con 1033 00:47:56,760 --> 00:47:58,360 Speaker 4: com gone? 1034 00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:02,439 Speaker 3: Yes, that was Matt Taylor, but he was an Ebicon guy. 1035 00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:07,080 Speaker 2: Ebcom evercom guy is Rick Van Terri. 1036 00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:13,760 Speaker 3: I believe, oh ex coach ebcom. Yes, it was another 1037 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:19,600 Speaker 3: win for the Colts. Jonathan Taylor two touchdowns and the 1038 00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:22,680 Speaker 3: defense comes up with a late turnover in a twenty 1039 00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:27,800 Speaker 3: seven twenty win over the Bucks. So yes, that's three 1040 00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:31,279 Speaker 3: wins in a row for Indy now six and five show. 1041 00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:36,040 Speaker 18: Yeah, you know, Gardner Minshew doesn't give you a high ceiling, right, 1042 00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:38,080 Speaker 18: But the most important thing that he should do is 1043 00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:40,319 Speaker 18: not hurt you. And he threw a pick today, but 1044 00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:42,560 Speaker 18: he also had a rushing touchdown and he did what 1045 00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:44,359 Speaker 18: he's done for most of these games, which is key 1046 00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:47,800 Speaker 18: completions in certain situations, struggles on third down, but keeps 1047 00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:50,440 Speaker 18: them afloat. And in this type of matchup, it was 1048 00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:53,080 Speaker 18: the defense's game to win. And what did they win it. 1049 00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:55,640 Speaker 18: They picked off Baker Mayfield after he came back from 1050 00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:59,160 Speaker 18: an early injury. Ronnie Harrison, making his Colts debut, gets 1051 00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:00,800 Speaker 18: a pick of his former Rounds teammate. 1052 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:02,520 Speaker 2: They turned that into a touchdown. 1053 00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:05,440 Speaker 18: They sacked Baker a number of times, They pressure him 1054 00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:08,920 Speaker 18: fourteen times, they get after him, and even after Rashad 1055 00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:11,880 Speaker 18: White ran fifteen times for one hundred yards, the Buccaneers 1056 00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:15,319 Speaker 18: still couldn't piece together enough consistent offensive production to get 1057 00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:17,480 Speaker 18: back into this game. Now, credit to them, they did 1058 00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:19,080 Speaker 18: make it interesting at the end. That's what led to 1059 00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:22,280 Speaker 18: that strip sack and the repeated mention of Samson ebucom 1060 00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:25,640 Speaker 18: But it had to come down to that for them 1061 00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:27,719 Speaker 18: to even have that opportunity, because they weren't. 1062 00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:28,880 Speaker 2: Able to get out of their own way. 1063 00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:31,239 Speaker 18: And it's another loss that is all too familiar for 1064 00:49:31,239 --> 00:49:33,480 Speaker 18: Buccaneers fans right now. You get both sides, like I said, 1065 00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:35,320 Speaker 18: you get both sides of the Kevin Stefanski's coin. You 1066 00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:38,319 Speaker 18: get both sides of the Baker Mayfield coin, which is gritty, tough, 1067 00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:39,680 Speaker 18: gonna go all the way to the end and give 1068 00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:41,640 Speaker 18: you everything he's got, but he's also gonna make a 1069 00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:43,680 Speaker 18: few errors and if they're in crucial spots, they'll probably 1070 00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:44,359 Speaker 18: lose you a game. 1071 00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:45,680 Speaker 2: And that's definitely what happened today. 1072 00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:48,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, we talked about Derek Carr being a frustrating watch 1073 00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:51,400 Speaker 5: far too often, but I think Mayfield fits into the 1074 00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:54,640 Speaker 5: same sort of category where you got like the heightened 1075 00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:56,920 Speaker 5: good of him today because every one of these games 1076 00:49:57,080 --> 00:49:59,759 Speaker 5: he'll like rumble for a first down on third and long, 1077 00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:01,640 Speaker 5: and it's kind of like he jazz is up the 1078 00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:03,359 Speaker 5: team and you can see what you like about him, 1079 00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:05,680 Speaker 5: and it'll convert a couple of big throws to Godwin 1080 00:50:05,800 --> 00:50:08,399 Speaker 5: or Evans, but then it's the killer turnover. And it's 1081 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:10,080 Speaker 5: like I was watching this out of the corner of 1082 00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:12,640 Speaker 5: my eye and got all aspects of Baker Mayfield today 1083 00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:14,960 Speaker 5: and that's why they're, you know, largely the record they 1084 00:50:14,960 --> 00:50:19,240 Speaker 5: are right now and untrustworthy, but he's not a terrible quarterback. 1085 00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:20,880 Speaker 5: It's just like he kind of reminds me of the 1086 00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:22,839 Speaker 5: other version of Gardner Minshew a little bit. 1087 00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:23,279 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1088 00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:25,319 Speaker 3: I think when you were out, Mark, I had talked 1089 00:50:25,320 --> 00:50:27,920 Speaker 3: about like I enjoyed watching Baker this year in a 1090 00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:30,800 Speaker 3: way that's been different than past years. It feels like 1091 00:50:30,840 --> 00:50:32,800 Speaker 3: he's like in a nice spot and a little little 1092 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:35,520 Speaker 3: under the radar and these ups and downs of his career, 1093 00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:38,000 Speaker 3: but like you're saying, there's there's always going to be 1094 00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:41,399 Speaker 3: moments where he's who he is, both good and bad. 1095 00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:43,359 Speaker 3: And I think it's gotten a beat and they've gotten 1096 00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:45,920 Speaker 3: a couple of wins out of it. They are very 1097 00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:48,000 Speaker 3: similar players, those two quarterbacks, no doubt about it. 1098 00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:50,600 Speaker 5: I mean the Bucks were three and one's it's not 1099 00:50:50,719 --> 00:50:52,400 Speaker 5: been a good six seven weeks. 1100 00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:56,000 Speaker 4: Here, No, and Devin White is kind of having the 1101 00:50:56,920 --> 00:51:01,360 Speaker 4: opposite contract year season. Let's say what Antoine Winfield is 1102 00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:03,000 Speaker 4: on his own team. I think Winfield is an All 1103 00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:07,239 Speaker 4: Pro candidate. Devin White. Every week you watch, you see 1104 00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:09,759 Speaker 4: him getting beat for big plays, for touchdowns. A couple 1105 00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:12,640 Speaker 4: touchdowns in this game, I think he missed Levante David 1106 00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:15,440 Speaker 4: And then on the other side, another free agent, Michael 1107 00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:17,880 Speaker 4: Pittman ten for one oh seven. He's on pace for 1108 00:51:17,880 --> 00:51:21,120 Speaker 4: about twelve hundred yards. Like there's this argument I think 1109 00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:22,879 Speaker 4: in India of like, well, how much do you pay him? 1110 00:51:22,920 --> 00:51:26,279 Speaker 4: Is he really a one? It's like it doesn't really matter. Yeah, 1111 00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:30,439 Speaker 4: he's a top twenty whatever receiver in his prime. He's 1112 00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:33,040 Speaker 4: going to get paid a lot of money. Like, if 1113 00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:35,160 Speaker 4: you don't want to pay him, someone else will pay 1114 00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:36,640 Speaker 4: him twenty three million dollars a year. 1115 00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:40,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, but he's an interesting guy and almost like you 1116 00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:42,000 Speaker 3: got to make sure he goes to the right team 1117 00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:42,319 Speaker 3: for that. 1118 00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:44,480 Speaker 1: But here's the thing. He's surrounded by nothing. 1119 00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:47,080 Speaker 4: He's had a terrible quarterback situation and all he does 1120 00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:51,400 Speaker 4: is produced that's extremely valuable. Even if you're the twentieth 1121 00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:53,880 Speaker 4: best ride receiver in the league, like, that's worth twenty 1122 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:54,839 Speaker 4: million dollars a year. 1123 00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:56,160 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter if you're not a one. 1124 00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:57,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, and you got to think about the fact that 1125 00:51:57,680 --> 00:52:00,120 Speaker 5: this is still Anthony Richardson's team starting next season and 1126 00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:02,320 Speaker 5: you don't start stripping talent away from him. 1127 00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:04,840 Speaker 18: Yeah, that's a good point because I think that production 1128 00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:06,960 Speaker 18: comparison wise, the guy I think of comes top of 1129 00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:08,840 Speaker 18: mind is Robert Woods. Like, Robert Woods is never going 1130 00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:10,360 Speaker 18: to be a number one, but he's consistent. He was 1131 00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:12,439 Speaker 18: consistent in LA for a long time before they moved 1132 00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:14,439 Speaker 18: on from him. You can get similar production from Michael 1133 00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:17,399 Speaker 18: Pittman with an upgraded quarterback in Anthony Richardson returning Colts 1134 00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:19,399 Speaker 18: fans should be pumped. They should really be pumped about 1135 00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:21,200 Speaker 18: the way this team is battling right now without that 1136 00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:23,759 Speaker 18: quarterback with Gardner Minshew and with it the way this 1137 00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:25,680 Speaker 18: defense is playing.

Thanks guys, Let's keep rolling. 1165 00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:47,799 Speaker 3: Let's go to Vegas where the Chiefs are looking to 1166 00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:48,399 Speaker 3: find a way. 1167 00:53:48,320 --> 00:53:51,120 Speaker 2: To count get some momentum going, and they did. 1168 00:53:51,760 --> 00:53:54,080 Speaker 19: Now it's third and five after having first and twenty 1169 00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:57,399 Speaker 19: Edwards Hilaire is in, that's the third down, back trying 1170 00:53:57,440 --> 00:54:00,480 Speaker 19: to get the call right. Here comes Watching in I 1171 00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:03,279 Speaker 19: gotta throw a crossing pattern. Caught Rice starting angling twenty 1172 00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:05,560 Speaker 19: five up the sideline, fifteen. 1173 00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:11,719 Speaker 8: Inside the fight and touchdown Canzaw City of thirty nine. 1174 00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:13,640 Speaker 1: Y'rek crossing pattern. 1175 00:54:13,600 --> 00:54:15,560 Speaker 13: And then swimming up the sideline. 1176 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:21,440 Speaker 2: Rushi Rice m mitch Holt is with a call Chiefs Radio. 1177 00:54:21,680 --> 00:54:23,440 Speaker 3: And we mentioned Rice in the lead up to this 1178 00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:27,319 Speaker 3: game that the Chiefs desperately need somebody to become a 1179 00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:31,840 Speaker 3: real thread in that offense beyond Travis Kelcey and Rice 1180 00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:34,920 Speaker 3: did the thing on Sunday eight for one oh seven, 1181 00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:36,799 Speaker 3: and that touchdown in a thirty one to. 1182 00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:39,280 Speaker 2: Seventeen win over the Raiders. 1183 00:54:39,320 --> 00:54:42,279 Speaker 3: And yes, you might say, oh, beating the Raiders with 1184 00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:47,440 Speaker 3: a beat up Mason Crosby nothing to you know, you know, 1185 00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:49,400 Speaker 3: organize a parade over And that's true. 1186 00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:50,960 Speaker 2: And yet I watched this. 1187 00:54:51,040 --> 00:54:54,160 Speaker 3: Game and it made me feel like the Chiefs got 1188 00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:57,080 Speaker 3: to win here that that they can really use as 1189 00:54:57,080 --> 00:55:01,000 Speaker 3: a springboard going forward, not just because that they won 1190 00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:02,839 Speaker 3: by two scores, but also how they did it. They 1191 00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:07,120 Speaker 3: fall behind fourteen nothing in this game and they are 1192 00:55:07,320 --> 00:55:10,960 Speaker 3: absolutely asleep at the wheel. At one point in the 1193 00:55:11,040 --> 00:55:14,839 Speaker 3: second quarter, the Raiders have gained over two hundred yards 1194 00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:16,359 Speaker 3: of offense and the Chiefs have about ten. 1195 00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:17,960 Speaker 2: It was nine first downs to one. 1196 00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:20,959 Speaker 3: It would have been seventeen nothing if Daniel Carson didn't 1197 00:55:21,040 --> 00:55:22,680 Speaker 3: shank a thirty yard field goal. 1198 00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:25,799 Speaker 2: And then they just kind of got back on track 1199 00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:26,720 Speaker 2: like the old Chiefs. 1200 00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:30,759 Speaker 3: They put up a touchdown, bing bang, another touchdown, and 1201 00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:36,080 Speaker 3: crucially boys after halftime, where they have bizarrely struggled this 1202 00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:39,440 Speaker 3: year on offense, they go right down the field their 1203 00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:42,080 Speaker 3: first possession for a touchdown and really seize control of 1204 00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:45,240 Speaker 3: the game, put the game away with that Rice touchdown 1205 00:55:45,280 --> 00:55:46,879 Speaker 3: late and you get that win. 1206 00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:50,360 Speaker 2: You're eight and three. All things considered, with all the hand. 1207 00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:52,319 Speaker 3: Ringing we did a ton of it on Sunday night 1208 00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:54,759 Speaker 3: last week, the Chiefs are in very good position to 1209 00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:56,160 Speaker 3: get where they want to be, which is the number 1210 00:55:56,200 --> 00:55:56,919 Speaker 3: one seed in the age. 1211 00:55:56,920 --> 00:55:58,840 Speaker 5: And it was a concerning start, but I'm looking at 1212 00:55:58,880 --> 00:56:02,840 Speaker 5: what happened after the Raiders second touchdown and in terms 1213 00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:05,760 Speaker 5: of net yardage on the resulting drives, the Chiefs defense, 1214 00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:08,440 Speaker 5: which was awesome for part of last week, gave up 1215 00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:11,359 Speaker 5: thirteen yards eleven six. There was a field goal drive 1216 00:56:11,400 --> 00:56:13,520 Speaker 5: the thirty one, seven and nine. So it's like they 1217 00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:15,480 Speaker 5: put the clamps on and it's like I still trust 1218 00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:17,240 Speaker 5: their defense week to week to be special. 1219 00:56:17,640 --> 00:56:20,400 Speaker 4: They've been great on that side. In the secondary, I 1220 00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:22,840 Speaker 4: don't need to see anymore. It's the offense. I'm wondering 1221 00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:25,360 Speaker 4: how it evolves, and I think you saw a very 1222 00:56:25,560 --> 00:56:30,640 Speaker 4: clear shift in strategy today until deep garbage time. Total 1223 00:56:30,680 --> 00:56:34,439 Speaker 4: targets for the Chiefs wide receivers ten for Rashie Rice. 1224 00:56:34,520 --> 00:56:36,399 Speaker 4: You've been calling for that. We we've been saying he's 1225 00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:40,120 Speaker 4: the guy, A combined four for everyone else. Now, obviously 1226 00:56:40,160 --> 00:56:42,400 Speaker 4: it's not going to be like that. In terms of 1227 00:56:42,440 --> 00:56:45,120 Speaker 4: the wide receivers. I'm not talking Kelsey, I'm not talking Pacheco, 1228 00:56:45,400 --> 00:56:47,600 Speaker 4: who both did their thing in the receiving game. In 1229 00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:50,160 Speaker 4: terms of the wide receivers, it was Rice for ten, 1230 00:56:50,440 --> 00:56:52,359 Speaker 4: and then Watson and More combined for four and then 1231 00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:54,400 Speaker 4: garbage time he threw a couple around. He tried to 1232 00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:56,799 Speaker 4: give Marcus Valdez scanty one and it goes for a 1233 00:56:56,800 --> 00:56:58,279 Speaker 4: negative yard like that was. 1234 00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:00,319 Speaker 3: His only target, which is notable because it was of 1235 00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:03,480 Speaker 3: course MVS who dropped the go ahead touchdown on Sunday 1236 00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:05,800 Speaker 3: night against the Eagles. He's the guy, right, you know, 1237 00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:09,480 Speaker 3: taking him out of the mix MVS and hopefully elevating 1238 00:57:09,480 --> 00:57:12,799 Speaker 3: in the end. I think Isaiah Pachenko, I just like 1239 00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:14,600 Speaker 3: I like him as a player. I like the way 1240 00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:16,840 Speaker 3: he runs the football. And then I thought, notably in 1241 00:57:16,880 --> 00:57:20,040 Speaker 3: the red zone if you you know, Reid could sometimes 1242 00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:23,720 Speaker 3: just get pass crazy, and they were hammering the ball 1243 00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:27,120 Speaker 3: into Pochanko inside the five, not trying to generate easy 1244 00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:31,040 Speaker 3: touchdowns for Travis Kelce. It was just like trusting their 1245 00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:34,440 Speaker 3: offensive line and Pachanko, and that worked twice in this game. 1246 00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,520 Speaker 3: So there was a lot to positives here and a 1247 00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:41,480 Speaker 3: lot to build on on the raider side of the ball. 1248 00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:44,680 Speaker 3: Just like we were talking about, Jonathan Taylor is warming up. 1249 00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:48,040 Speaker 3: Josh Jacobs turned on the Jets on a long sixty 1250 00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:50,240 Speaker 3: three yard touchdown run in the second quarter. 1251 00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:51,680 Speaker 2: It was kind of the beginning of the end for them. 1252 00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:54,000 Speaker 3: Offensively, but it was just a reminder that he is 1253 00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:56,360 Speaker 3: really kind of back to the dude he was last 1254 00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:58,880 Speaker 3: year when you watch him play. Finished with one hundred 1255 00:57:58,880 --> 00:58:02,280 Speaker 3: and ten, his second one hundred yard game in three weeks, 1256 00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:06,680 Speaker 3: and Max Crosby became the first player this season who 1257 00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:09,600 Speaker 3: was listed as doubtful. There had been sixty seven guys 1258 00:58:10,440 --> 00:58:12,720 Speaker 3: listed as doubtful. He plays in this game with a 1259 00:58:12,720 --> 00:58:15,040 Speaker 3: bad knee, and it's a knee injury that I believe 1260 00:58:15,120 --> 00:58:16,880 Speaker 3: is going to require surgery. So we're gonna see how 1261 00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:18,760 Speaker 3: much longer you could gut it out. But this guy 1262 00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:21,160 Speaker 3: is the face of the Raiders, and as long as 1263 00:58:21,240 --> 00:58:23,040 Speaker 3: he's on the field, you feel like they have a chance. 1264 00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:25,400 Speaker 3: Let's see how much how much longer you could stay 1265 00:58:25,400 --> 00:58:27,000 Speaker 3: on the field because you could tell he was hobbled. 1266 00:58:27,040 --> 00:58:29,400 Speaker 3: He did get a sack in this game, but he 1267 00:58:29,480 --> 00:58:30,000 Speaker 3: is not at one. 1268 00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:33,960 Speaker 5: That's that's hopeful about Josh Jacobs, And I wonder if 1269 00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:36,320 Speaker 5: you still saw an uptick in terms of like the 1270 00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:40,600 Speaker 5: whole overall Raiders experience with the coaching situation. I know, 1271 00:58:40,840 --> 00:58:42,840 Speaker 5: you know results aside. This was a tough loss, but 1272 00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:46,439 Speaker 5: they're still hanging around. They still matter, and I felt 1273 00:58:46,440 --> 00:58:48,080 Speaker 5: like they didn't matter a month ago at all. 1274 00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:51,840 Speaker 1: Yeah eight yards with Aiden O'Connell, I think, yeah, pretty happy. 1275 00:58:51,880 --> 00:58:54,760 Speaker 3: I think Antonio Pierce has done a good job. There's 1276 00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:57,280 Speaker 3: a great and this is the reason you love. Crosby 1277 00:58:57,400 --> 00:59:01,200 Speaker 3: is a player where he got kind of knocked someone 1278 00:59:01,240 --> 00:59:04,120 Speaker 3: collided with his leg. He goes down in a heap 1279 00:59:04,520 --> 00:59:06,440 Speaker 3: and he kind of peels himself off the turf and 1280 00:59:06,480 --> 00:59:10,200 Speaker 3: again you could tell he's gotten through it. And Pierce 1281 00:59:10,360 --> 00:59:14,000 Speaker 3: sends in a substitute for Crosby, and Crosby is like, 1282 00:59:14,040 --> 00:59:16,080 Speaker 3: I'm not coming out of the game, and they had 1283 00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:17,800 Speaker 3: twelve men on the field because he refused to come 1284 00:59:17,840 --> 00:59:19,480 Speaker 3: out of the game. So Pierce had a call time 1285 00:59:19,520 --> 00:59:21,800 Speaker 3: out to get Crosby off the field. And then you 1286 00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:24,640 Speaker 3: see Crosby just hissed off on the sideline and Pierce 1287 00:59:25,000 --> 00:59:27,160 Speaker 3: talking to him, and then you think to yourself, Josh 1288 00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:29,880 Speaker 3: McDaniels isn't able to have that conversation with Max Crosby. 1289 00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:32,960 Speaker 3: Antonio Pierce a guy that has been through the wars 1290 00:59:32,960 --> 00:59:35,880 Speaker 3: in a different way ken. So yes, the Raiders arrow 1291 00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:38,800 Speaker 3: up in general compared to where they were with McDaniels, 1292 00:59:39,320 --> 00:59:40,040 Speaker 3: but also. 1293 00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:41,720 Speaker 2: They came down to earth here, especially on defense. 1294 00:59:41,720 --> 00:59:44,800 Speaker 4: Do you remember that doubtful used to supposed to be 1295 00:59:45,120 --> 00:59:47,960 Speaker 4: about a twenty five percent chance of playing. That was 1296 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:49,960 Speaker 4: the idea of it, right, So if he's one in 1297 00:59:50,080 --> 00:59:53,880 Speaker 4: sixty seven, he's the first one. I guess that's changed. 1298 00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:56,200 Speaker 4: I think now it means unlikely to play. I don't 1299 00:59:56,200 --> 00:59:58,080 Speaker 4: know if they still do the twenty five percent thing. 1300 00:59:58,280 --> 01:00:00,640 Speaker 4: And if so, you know, we didn't invest gation here. 1301 01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:03,240 Speaker 4: We need more doubtful players to play. Bump it up 1302 01:00:03,280 --> 01:00:04,160 Speaker 4: to twenty five percent. 1303 01:00:04,200 --> 01:00:06,200 Speaker 3: Get on that beat. That could be an off season 1304 01:00:07,480 --> 01:00:10,160 Speaker 3: run of episodes. Maybe we do like a seven part series. 1305 01:00:11,000 --> 01:00:12,600 Speaker 5: It could be like the you know, Jordan rod rig 1306 01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:14,000 Speaker 5: did her you know, play Callers one. 1307 01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:14,600 Speaker 2: We'll just do us. 1308 01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:16,280 Speaker 5: We just got a series undoubtful. 1309 01:00:16,360 --> 01:00:18,160 Speaker 2: How do we turn through like June? 1310 01:00:18,840 --> 01:00:21,080 Speaker 5: That's this is how we could do a series on 1311 01:00:21,120 --> 01:00:23,480 Speaker 5: each of the designations Probable. What does it really mean? 1312 01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:26,280 Speaker 4: It's like I saw a breaking news they come across 1313 01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:29,240 Speaker 4: the screen on Friday. It was like breaking news, Max 1314 01:00:29,280 --> 01:00:31,600 Speaker 4: Crosby will try to play. Then I was like, well, 1315 01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:34,400 Speaker 4: that's well, I'm not surprised by that. Of course he's 1316 01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:37,840 Speaker 4: gonna try. It's Max Crosby. 1317 01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:42,200 Speaker 3: Can I can I offer a suggestion, Mark, because probable, 1318 01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:45,280 Speaker 3: what does it really mean? Kind of sounds like another 1319 01:00:45,320 --> 01:00:46,560 Speaker 3: episode of this guy gets It. 1320 01:00:46,600 --> 01:00:49,720 Speaker 5: Actually, well, you know, there's a lot of content coming 1321 01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:51,880 Speaker 5: out of that corner of the universe. But I can 1322 01:00:51,960 --> 01:00:52,880 Speaker 5: always do for one. 1323 01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:53,640 Speaker 1: It'd be nice. 1324 01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:58,000 Speaker 3: All right, let's keep moving here. There was a time 1325 01:00:58,000 --> 01:01:02,200 Speaker 3: where Patriots v. Giants evokes some of the greatest drama 1326 01:01:02,280 --> 01:01:03,760 Speaker 3: football in the twenty first century. 1327 01:01:04,520 --> 01:01:07,120 Speaker 2: I'm not referring to today's game, though you should not be. 1328 01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:10,160 Speaker 17: The rookie is set from thirty five to tie it 1329 01:01:12,160 --> 01:01:15,040 Speaker 17: snap is good, kick on its way and over in 1330 01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:19,240 Speaker 17: it it's no good mister White laugh? Or yes, mister 1331 01:01:19,360 --> 01:01:24,640 Speaker 17: White laugh. So another rookie beats Bill Belichick. I said 1332 01:01:24,680 --> 01:01:28,520 Speaker 17: that Ryland had missed one from thirty five earlier this year. 1333 01:01:28,360 --> 01:01:29,600 Speaker 2: And he misses it again. 1334 01:01:30,480 --> 01:01:35,160 Speaker 3: Whoa greggy Carl Banks with the dagger there with Bob 1335 01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:39,960 Speaker 3: Poppa on the call Chance radio. Yeah, the rookie Chad Ryland, 1336 01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:46,600 Speaker 3: who was drafted in the fourth round. One of many 1337 01:01:46,640 --> 01:01:50,200 Speaker 3: many misses by Belichick in recent years. That was the 1338 01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:55,280 Speaker 3: difference in a ten to seven Giants win. Wasn't Mark Sessler? 1339 01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:58,000 Speaker 3: Because of course this is a game that was hyped 1340 01:01:58,080 --> 01:02:01,040 Speaker 3: up as being the winner is really the loser when 1341 01:02:01,080 --> 01:02:03,919 Speaker 3: you talk about draft standing. But the Giants seemed happy, 1342 01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:06,400 Speaker 3: Tommy DeVito and his family seemed happy. 1343 01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:08,160 Speaker 2: And the metal ends the fans went home happy. 1344 01:02:08,240 --> 01:02:12,120 Speaker 5: Tommy DeVito was by far the most enjoyable aspect to 1345 01:02:12,160 --> 01:02:14,400 Speaker 5: one of the more unwatchable games I've ever sat through 1346 01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:18,240 Speaker 5: in our corporate offices. But I will say before that kick, 1347 01:02:18,640 --> 01:02:20,960 Speaker 5: reg and I were talking, were like, don't you find 1348 01:02:20,960 --> 01:02:22,720 Speaker 5: a way to kind of miss this kick and stay 1349 01:02:22,720 --> 01:02:24,320 Speaker 5: in the contention for the first over. 1350 01:02:24,360 --> 01:02:26,280 Speaker 1: He got to tell Ryland before the kick, you know, 1351 01:02:26,440 --> 01:02:27,320 Speaker 1: just just hook it. 1352 01:02:27,320 --> 01:02:29,840 Speaker 3: It's like the opposite of what Belichick told out of 1353 01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:32,160 Speaker 3: Vittieri all those years ago, if you miss this kick, 1354 01:02:32,200 --> 01:02:34,240 Speaker 3: you're gone, when he was like a rookie. This time 1355 01:02:34,280 --> 01:02:38,680 Speaker 3: it's like, if you make this kick, you're gone. 1356 01:02:37,560 --> 01:02:39,400 Speaker 2: And he shanked it his job. 1357 01:02:40,080 --> 01:02:44,240 Speaker 4: By Balichick's reaction, I think this theory not too not 1358 01:02:44,360 --> 01:02:47,080 Speaker 4: too solid. I think he was very frustrated to see 1359 01:02:47,080 --> 01:02:49,240 Speaker 4: the kickery. He got rid of Nick folk for who's 1360 01:02:49,240 --> 01:02:50,080 Speaker 4: having a great season. 1361 01:02:50,120 --> 01:02:52,640 Speaker 3: Speaking of Nick Fole, let's listen to I might have 1362 01:02:52,760 --> 01:02:55,640 Speaker 3: asked Eric to pull some zolac on this. 1363 01:02:55,720 --> 01:02:57,680 Speaker 2: Let's listen to the sentient power raid. 1364 01:02:57,520 --> 01:03:01,040 Speaker 3: Bottle snaps, Barricker holds, it is picked and it clears 1365 01:03:01,080 --> 01:03:01,400 Speaker 3: the line. 1366 01:03:02,280 --> 01:03:06,080 Speaker 8: Right good, Well, it's no good and it Hook's left 1367 01:03:06,480 --> 01:03:07,680 Speaker 8: with three seconds to. 1368 01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:10,760 Speaker 16: Go another one to get dissected after this, had to 1369 01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:12,080 Speaker 16: get rid of Nick Folk, right. 1370 01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:16,400 Speaker 2: You guest, are automatic. Wow, by the way, Nick Folk 1371 01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:17,520 Speaker 2: had another bomb today. 1372 01:03:17,720 --> 01:03:19,720 Speaker 3: You know, Nick Folk looks like he's about fifty five, 1373 01:03:20,840 --> 01:03:23,120 Speaker 3: but he can still kick it fifty five. And that 1374 01:03:23,240 --> 01:03:26,479 Speaker 3: was a decision that just so many Greg, so many 1375 01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:27,800 Speaker 3: Belichick decisions. 1376 01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:30,600 Speaker 2: And I earlier in the season, I was on the other. 1377 01:03:30,480 --> 01:03:32,760 Speaker 3: Side of it, Greg, where I thought, I think Belichick 1378 01:03:32,840 --> 01:03:35,920 Speaker 3: is probably gonna be safe. But the way the games 1379 01:03:35,960 --> 01:03:38,480 Speaker 3: are playing out now, with the farce of Mac Jones 1380 01:03:38,560 --> 01:03:42,000 Speaker 3: starting and getting benched after two interceptions, and then you 1381 01:03:42,120 --> 01:03:44,640 Speaker 3: bring in Billy Zappi and then you're blowing games with 1382 01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:46,800 Speaker 3: the rookie kicker you didn't need to get it all 1383 01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:50,000 Speaker 3: feels like a clean start. And I think Peter King 1384 01:03:50,120 --> 01:03:53,680 Speaker 3: was on our buddy Kevin Clark's show this week and 1385 01:03:54,280 --> 01:03:56,040 Speaker 3: he's kind of put it out there that he that 1386 01:03:56,160 --> 01:04:00,680 Speaker 3: there's a vibe he was getting that that Robert Kraft 1387 01:04:00,720 --> 01:04:05,920 Speaker 3: wants a kind of a younger thinking, more fresh minded 1388 01:04:05,920 --> 01:04:08,120 Speaker 3: approach to the organization, and none of that seems to 1389 01:04:08,120 --> 01:04:09,800 Speaker 3: connect with the seventy something Belichick. 1390 01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:12,840 Speaker 4: No, And you wonder, I wonder whether that connects with 1391 01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:15,200 Speaker 4: like Drod Mayo, who is younger, and I don't know, 1392 01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:18,000 Speaker 4: is he going to bring a different approach or not 1393 01:04:19,320 --> 01:04:22,200 Speaker 4: to watch like these game to watch Mac Jones in 1394 01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:26,280 Speaker 4: this game just completely not be there. He's collapsed in 1395 01:04:26,320 --> 01:04:29,560 Speaker 4: on himself almost unlike any quarterback I've ever seen that's 1396 01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:31,840 Speaker 4: shown a high level of play at one point. I mean, 1397 01:04:31,840 --> 01:04:34,920 Speaker 4: this was a guy who numbers wise was like eleventh 1398 01:04:34,920 --> 01:04:36,960 Speaker 4: in PFF twelfth and the EPA as a rookie like 1399 01:04:37,000 --> 01:04:39,680 Speaker 4: really showed it. It was a solid started quarterback at a rookie. 1400 01:04:39,760 --> 01:04:42,640 Speaker 4: To regress this far where he was like playing in 1401 01:04:42,680 --> 01:04:45,560 Speaker 4: a way that was begging to be benched almost at 1402 01:04:45,640 --> 01:04:49,320 Speaker 4: every moment, like backing away from from throws, like backing 1403 01:04:49,320 --> 01:04:52,520 Speaker 4: away from pressure that wasn't there, it is wild to see. 1404 01:04:52,560 --> 01:04:55,240 Speaker 4: It is wild that he got like the opportunity to 1405 01:04:55,280 --> 01:04:57,040 Speaker 4: even start this game. There was one play where they 1406 01:04:57,080 --> 01:04:58,520 Speaker 4: didn't let him throw the ball on third and eight 1407 01:04:58,560 --> 01:05:00,720 Speaker 4: and they handed off to Zeke is a total give 1408 01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:03,680 Speaker 4: up play, but actually they had They blocked it perfectly 1409 01:05:03,680 --> 01:05:06,800 Speaker 4: and Zeke had a prairie to run through. Any running 1410 01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:08,600 Speaker 4: back picks up that they're done, and then Zeke's like 1411 01:05:08,880 --> 01:05:11,240 Speaker 4: chugging to the sideline and they tackle him, and I 1412 01:05:11,320 --> 01:05:13,320 Speaker 4: was just like another weird this is the Patriots in 1413 01:05:13,360 --> 01:05:13,840 Speaker 4: twenty twenty. 1414 01:05:13,920 --> 01:05:14,040 Speaker 10: Uo. 1415 01:05:14,160 --> 01:05:17,120 Speaker 5: It's total mismanagement. I can't think of a quarterback that's 1416 01:05:17,120 --> 01:05:20,240 Speaker 5: sort of been a like falling off a cliff like 1417 01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:22,280 Speaker 5: Mac Jones has from where he was, you know, midway 1418 01:05:22,280 --> 01:05:25,680 Speaker 5: through his rookie season, but terrible coaching around him last year. 1419 01:05:26,080 --> 01:05:28,080 Speaker 5: It's happening all over again. I think it matters when 1420 01:05:28,120 --> 01:05:31,160 Speaker 5: you have a starting quarterback and you're sending out messages 1421 01:05:31,160 --> 01:05:33,720 Speaker 5: through the press all week that you're gonna everyone might play. 1422 01:05:34,240 --> 01:05:36,880 Speaker 5: What's happening with it, And it's like he's deserved, you know, 1423 01:05:36,920 --> 01:05:39,320 Speaker 5: the chance to be demoted because he's played terribly today 1424 01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:43,320 Speaker 5: and he's not seen the fielded through terrible interceptions. Zapi 1425 01:05:43,400 --> 01:05:45,160 Speaker 5: came in in through one too. It's like the Giants 1426 01:05:45,200 --> 01:05:48,520 Speaker 5: defense inside of this effort played really well and they've 1427 01:05:48,520 --> 01:05:51,320 Speaker 5: had these games where Wink Martindale's defense has shown a 1428 01:05:51,360 --> 01:05:53,080 Speaker 5: lot of promise. It's like, I don't know if you're 1429 01:05:53,080 --> 01:05:55,440 Speaker 5: the Giants what you're building for. But like the Tommy 1430 01:05:55,440 --> 01:05:58,800 Speaker 5: DeVito experience in reverse on the flip side shows me 1431 01:05:58,840 --> 01:06:01,960 Speaker 5: that Brian Dable can coachquarterbacks like he looked functional again today. 1432 01:06:01,960 --> 01:06:04,400 Speaker 5: It wasn't perfect. It was a terrible range, just like 1433 01:06:04,440 --> 01:06:06,960 Speaker 5: in Philadelphia, but a guy like Jalen Hyatt bailed him 1434 01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:08,240 Speaker 5: out and had a lot of big plays. 1435 01:06:08,280 --> 01:06:09,080 Speaker 1: Those are nice throws. 1436 01:06:09,080 --> 01:06:11,200 Speaker 4: Though he's played, he's out playing Mac Jones and Zach 1437 01:06:11,240 --> 01:06:11,920 Speaker 4: Wilson to the. 1438 01:06:13,600 --> 01:06:14,960 Speaker 5: You know what this is like the second he took 1439 01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:17,280 Speaker 5: six sacks from the Patriots. Again today, it's keeps getting 1440 01:06:17,320 --> 01:06:19,880 Speaker 5: you know, shredded, but he's making plays outside of it. 1441 01:06:19,920 --> 01:06:22,480 Speaker 5: And I give them credit for a team that has 1442 01:06:22,520 --> 01:06:23,600 Speaker 5: not given up on their coach. 1443 01:06:23,760 --> 01:06:27,160 Speaker 2: Two QB thoughts from this game. One. 1444 01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:32,400 Speaker 3: Tommy DeVito has this window and moment in time where 1445 01:06:32,400 --> 01:06:34,920 Speaker 3: he will be the starting quarterback of the Giants. And 1446 01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:37,400 Speaker 3: it's not going to happen after this year because they're 1447 01:06:37,440 --> 01:06:38,920 Speaker 3: going to go in a new direction or they're going 1448 01:06:38,960 --> 01:06:41,800 Speaker 3: to go back to Daniel Jones more than likely, But 1449 01:06:41,880 --> 01:06:46,560 Speaker 3: in this moment, uh, there's there's Jersey Boy undrafted player 1450 01:06:46,640 --> 01:06:49,800 Speaker 3: that has he will be talked about, trust me, is 1451 01:06:49,800 --> 01:06:51,640 Speaker 3: someone that grew up in this area. He'll be talked 1452 01:06:51,680 --> 01:06:54,840 Speaker 3: about twenty five years from now as a sometimes as 1453 01:06:54,840 --> 01:06:58,000 Speaker 3: a punchline, sometimes has reminiscing like wasn't that crazy that 1454 01:06:58,080 --> 01:06:59,720 Speaker 3: this guy was our quarterback? A guy that you would 1455 01:06:59,720 --> 01:07:02,959 Speaker 3: expect being in section three fourteen was actually our QB. 1456 01:07:03,400 --> 01:07:05,440 Speaker 3: Just kind of a fun little thing and an otherwise 1457 01:07:05,680 --> 01:07:08,840 Speaker 3: dreary season for the Giants and mac Jones. I've never 1458 01:07:08,840 --> 01:07:10,479 Speaker 3: been the biggest fan of him, but I also think 1459 01:07:11,080 --> 01:07:15,920 Speaker 3: he could be a somewhat successful system quarterback with the 1460 01:07:16,000 --> 01:07:16,560 Speaker 3: right setup. 1461 01:07:16,800 --> 01:07:17,800 Speaker 2: I think they broke him. 1462 01:07:18,080 --> 01:07:21,000 Speaker 3: I think there's so much more than just him at 1463 01:07:21,040 --> 01:07:23,240 Speaker 3: play here, and we know how they let him down 1464 01:07:23,320 --> 01:07:23,760 Speaker 3: last year. 1465 01:07:23,760 --> 01:07:24,600 Speaker 2: But you're right what you. 1466 01:07:24,520 --> 01:07:28,200 Speaker 3: Said about like the way they've talked about him in 1467 01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:31,520 Speaker 3: the media and their quarterback situation didn't don't instill any 1468 01:07:31,560 --> 01:07:34,560 Speaker 3: don't empower him in any way, and he's clearly playing 1469 01:07:34,600 --> 01:07:37,960 Speaker 3: like a young quarterback who doesn't believe in himself and 1470 01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:39,360 Speaker 3: the scheme and the team that he. 1471 01:07:39,320 --> 01:07:42,400 Speaker 4: Played, Like where's Bill O'Brien and all this right, it 1472 01:07:42,400 --> 01:07:44,960 Speaker 4: hasn't improved getting rid of Patricia Hunter. Henry said he 1473 01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:47,360 Speaker 4: didn't know who the starter was until they ran out there. 1474 01:07:47,520 --> 01:07:50,320 Speaker 4: Ballichick consisted he told Mac Jones at some point before 1475 01:07:50,320 --> 01:07:53,280 Speaker 4: they got on the plane, but the team didn't seem 1476 01:07:53,320 --> 01:07:57,320 Speaker 4: to know. The most newsworthy coaching report from this game 1477 01:07:57,360 --> 01:08:00,680 Speaker 4: that was before it by Jake Lazer, yes, a report 1478 01:08:00,720 --> 01:08:04,800 Speaker 4: that he expected a mutual parting of ways between Brian 1479 01:08:04,880 --> 01:08:06,840 Speaker 4: Dable and Wink Martindale. 1480 01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:09,120 Speaker 1: Possibly before the end of the season. 1481 01:08:09,760 --> 01:08:11,680 Speaker 4: Dave All of course was asked about and said that 1482 01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:13,320 Speaker 4: was you know, the only thing we argue about is 1483 01:08:13,360 --> 01:08:13,800 Speaker 4: like who. 1484 01:08:13,600 --> 01:08:14,680 Speaker 1: Gets the last lights of piece. 1485 01:08:15,560 --> 01:08:20,840 Speaker 4: But it was really pointed that, like he gave Wink 1486 01:08:20,880 --> 01:08:24,240 Speaker 4: Martindale the game ball after this game, so it has 1487 01:08:24,320 --> 01:08:27,360 Speaker 4: to be the first ever game ball issued in the 1488 01:08:27,400 --> 01:08:30,080 Speaker 4: history of the NFL. In response to a Jay Glazer report. 1489 01:08:30,160 --> 01:08:32,360 Speaker 4: What's going on, Like, there's no way Wing Martindale gets 1490 01:08:32,360 --> 01:08:34,400 Speaker 4: that game ball unless that report gets out there. And 1491 01:08:34,439 --> 01:08:37,680 Speaker 4: I I one hundred percent trust Jay Glazer that he's 1492 01:08:37,720 --> 01:08:38,200 Speaker 4: got this thing. 1493 01:08:38,240 --> 01:08:40,160 Speaker 3: Now as a fellow insider, I just got to say, 1494 01:08:40,160 --> 01:08:42,360 Speaker 3: I gotta respect what Jay was able to do. 1495 01:08:42,360 --> 01:08:45,400 Speaker 4: Right exactly, just that there's tension there. They're just inside 1496 01:08:45,439 --> 01:08:46,720 Speaker 4: the build they're bickering at each other. 1497 01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:47,439 Speaker 1: Whatever it is. 1498 01:08:48,320 --> 01:08:51,120 Speaker 3: All right, let's take a break and then we will 1499 01:08:51,120 --> 01:08:52,960 Speaker 3: finish out is Sunday Slate. 1500 01:08:56,640 --> 01:08:58,000 Speaker 2: All right, welcome back. 1501 01:08:58,040 --> 01:09:00,760 Speaker 3: Of course, you had the three thanks Giving games, and 1502 01:09:00,800 --> 01:09:03,360 Speaker 3: you can check out the podcast previous to this one 1503 01:09:03,439 --> 01:09:06,120 Speaker 3: for our reaction to those games. There was, for the 1504 01:09:06,120 --> 01:09:10,599 Speaker 3: first time a Black Friday game. It was a Black Friday. Indeed, 1505 01:09:10,640 --> 01:09:12,839 Speaker 3: at least for my team to the meadowlands. 1506 01:09:12,920 --> 01:09:18,719 Speaker 2: We go spoils act to throw looking for man rush. 1507 01:09:19,400 --> 01:09:20,479 Speaker 2: They're chasing them down. 1508 01:09:20,680 --> 01:09:23,840 Speaker 1: Get you off towards the m drove and then it's 1509 01:09:23,960 --> 01:09:24,519 Speaker 1: picked off. 1510 01:09:24,800 --> 01:09:27,560 Speaker 2: Oh that's gonna get interest. They haven't, and it's a 1511 01:09:27,920 --> 01:09:28,320 Speaker 2: good call. 1512 01:09:28,600 --> 01:09:32,200 Speaker 13: At the twenty thirty, he's cutting back. 1513 01:09:32,000 --> 01:09:35,120 Speaker 2: Inside forty of My New York for twenty five to 1514 01:09:35,240 --> 01:09:44,479 Speaker 2: twenty to the right til five pay cut play. 1515 01:09:46,240 --> 01:09:51,000 Speaker 3: Jimmy Cephalo Orfalo Cephalo, Jimmy Cefalo with the call. 1516 01:09:51,360 --> 01:09:52,120 Speaker 2: With Joe Rose. 1517 01:09:52,160 --> 01:09:54,599 Speaker 3: I think it was Rose who pointed out this could 1518 01:09:54,680 --> 01:09:58,200 Speaker 3: be interesting. Yes, the Hail Mary for the Jets at 1519 01:09:58,200 --> 01:09:59,639 Speaker 3: the end of the half, set up by a two 1520 01:09:59,720 --> 01:10:04,320 Speaker 3: inner exception, Tim Boyle throws it up for grabs, it 1521 01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:10,880 Speaker 3: gets intercepted and then run back ninety nine yards. Just 1522 01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:13,360 Speaker 3: the latest indignity for the New York Jets and the 1523 01:10:13,439 --> 01:10:17,040 Speaker 3: latest win for the Miami Dolphins, who cruise on Black 1524 01:10:17,080 --> 01:10:21,040 Speaker 3: Friday to a thirty four to thirteen win. So the 1525 01:10:21,080 --> 01:10:25,759 Speaker 3: Dolphins another team at eight and three, and in this game, 1526 01:10:26,560 --> 01:10:29,559 Speaker 3: it was like like the other Thursday games, it was 1527 01:10:29,640 --> 01:10:30,720 Speaker 3: not very competitive. 1528 01:10:30,960 --> 01:10:33,480 Speaker 2: It was two teams going in very different directions. 1529 01:10:33,840 --> 01:10:36,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it was the end of the third quarter. 1530 01:10:37,160 --> 01:10:39,840 Speaker 4: I wrote down the stats in the box score that 1531 01:10:39,960 --> 01:10:43,200 Speaker 4: the Dolphins had had sixty one plays, the Jets had 1532 01:10:43,240 --> 01:10:45,680 Speaker 4: had twenty two. The Dolphins had had three hundred and 1533 01:10:45,680 --> 01:10:50,320 Speaker 4: thirty five yards, the Jets had had fifty. That says, 1534 01:10:50,400 --> 01:10:52,920 Speaker 4: you know, complete domination pretty much on both sides of 1535 01:10:52,920 --> 01:10:54,719 Speaker 4: the ball. You know, they would have had seventeen points 1536 01:10:54,720 --> 01:10:57,519 Speaker 4: in their first three drives the Dolphins if Tyreek Hill 1537 01:10:57,520 --> 01:10:59,640 Speaker 4: didn't drop a pass in the end zone. And then 1538 01:10:59,680 --> 01:11:02,600 Speaker 4: once it defense does start playing well, they get a 1539 01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:06,200 Speaker 4: couple turnovers on to it, including one with two seconds 1540 01:11:06,280 --> 01:11:09,559 Speaker 4: left to set up that Hail Mary. That's what happens. 1541 01:11:09,600 --> 01:11:12,280 Speaker 4: And you just felt for everyone there, But I guess 1542 01:11:12,320 --> 01:11:13,600 Speaker 4: you didn't feel I guess there were a lot of 1543 01:11:13,640 --> 01:11:17,120 Speaker 4: Dolphins fair then good job by the Dolphins now traveling well. 1544 01:11:17,000 --> 01:11:19,439 Speaker 3: It's also Jets fail Loud aren't gonna watch it right, 1545 01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:24,120 Speaker 3: barbit right selling their tickets because it's outrageous, and I mean, 1546 01:11:24,160 --> 01:11:28,600 Speaker 3: it's just we don't need it, not today. It's just like, 1547 01:11:29,680 --> 01:11:31,519 Speaker 3: why does it have to be like this? Why can't 1548 01:11:31,520 --> 01:11:33,559 Speaker 3: we just lose like regular teams? Why do we need 1549 01:11:33,600 --> 01:11:36,600 Speaker 3: the hail Mary pick six to add to all the 1550 01:11:36,640 --> 01:11:41,080 Speaker 3: other frustrations being a fan of this team for the 1551 01:11:41,120 --> 01:11:44,480 Speaker 3: game to kind of be remembered this way, and it's 1552 01:11:44,560 --> 01:11:47,200 Speaker 3: just brutal, and Tim Boyle is obviously not the answer, 1553 01:11:47,680 --> 01:11:50,200 Speaker 3: and just like Zach Wilson is not the answer. But 1554 01:11:50,240 --> 01:11:52,880 Speaker 3: like I said last week, with this Jets team and 1555 01:11:52,920 --> 01:11:56,000 Speaker 3: this regime, you get what you deserve. And they set 1556 01:11:56,040 --> 01:11:58,920 Speaker 3: themselves up for this and they ignored all the warning 1557 01:11:58,960 --> 01:12:02,320 Speaker 3: signs and now the chickens have come home to roost 1558 01:12:02,439 --> 01:12:05,439 Speaker 3: and it blows my mind. As let's you know, I 1559 01:12:05,479 --> 01:12:08,759 Speaker 3: want to hear from Robert Sali here, Robert Salad now, 1560 01:12:08,960 --> 01:12:13,120 Speaker 3: And we talked about his stammering reply to Michael k 1561 01:12:13,240 --> 01:12:15,800 Speaker 3: a few weeks back when asked about Zach Wilson and 1562 01:12:16,120 --> 01:12:19,720 Speaker 3: you know, his starting job now he's being asked about 1563 01:12:20,040 --> 01:12:22,920 Speaker 3: Nathaniel Hackett, which is obviously a thorny issue because he's 1564 01:12:22,960 --> 01:12:25,559 Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers's boy and everything is about Aaron Rodgers with 1565 01:12:25,600 --> 01:12:28,439 Speaker 3: his team, and once again the coach is revealed to 1566 01:12:28,520 --> 01:12:29,600 Speaker 3: be powerless. 1567 01:12:29,680 --> 01:12:32,640 Speaker 20: Essentially, I'd be a really long answer, an answer for 1568 01:12:32,680 --> 01:12:35,559 Speaker 20: another day, I guess, But you know, when you look 1569 01:12:35,560 --> 01:12:38,479 Speaker 20: at it all and again, it's it's a little bit 1570 01:12:38,479 --> 01:12:41,519 Speaker 20: of everything. Whether the calls could be better, whether the 1571 01:12:41,560 --> 01:12:45,559 Speaker 20: execution can be better, whether our one on one battles 1572 01:12:45,600 --> 01:12:49,320 Speaker 20: can be better. You know, it's it's taking advantage of 1573 01:12:49,360 --> 01:12:54,880 Speaker 20: the situations we have. When we get him. Do I think, 1574 01:12:54,880 --> 01:12:56,479 Speaker 20: play caller, we'll fix that. 1575 01:12:58,640 --> 01:12:59,040 Speaker 2: I don't know. 1576 01:12:59,760 --> 01:13:04,799 Speaker 5: Let me hold on, like so you cannot, you cannot 1577 01:13:04,960 --> 01:13:08,800 Speaker 5: go into next season because this season is essentially it 1578 01:13:08,880 --> 01:13:11,280 Speaker 5: is over for the Jets, and it's become poisoned in 1579 01:13:11,320 --> 01:13:15,200 Speaker 5: every possible way. The Nathaniel Hackett question is a fair question. 1580 01:13:15,720 --> 01:13:17,640 Speaker 5: I think one thing I'm wat when I'm watching the 1581 01:13:17,680 --> 01:13:19,599 Speaker 5: Jets because there's got to be a schism in that building. 1582 01:13:19,600 --> 01:13:22,080 Speaker 5: If there's a schism in the Giants building. They didn't 1583 01:13:22,080 --> 01:13:26,519 Speaker 5: have a single drive go for over sixteen yards until 1584 01:13:26,560 --> 01:13:28,760 Speaker 5: the fourth quarter. I mean, that's absurd. And what that 1585 01:13:28,840 --> 01:13:31,280 Speaker 5: tells me a little bit is that we're watching other 1586 01:13:31,320 --> 01:13:34,280 Speaker 5: teams around the league that flexibly change what they do 1587 01:13:34,360 --> 01:13:37,200 Speaker 5: on offense depending on what's happening at quarterback, what's happening 1588 01:13:37,240 --> 01:13:40,880 Speaker 5: in other positions. Good coaches find flexible, creative ways out 1589 01:13:40,920 --> 01:13:43,880 Speaker 5: of jams. And Nathaniel Hackett, I don't know how else 1590 01:13:43,920 --> 01:13:47,080 Speaker 5: to put it on. He's organizing the weekly call sheet, 1591 01:13:47,680 --> 01:13:50,040 Speaker 5: the weekly attack, the way they're going to do things 1592 01:13:50,360 --> 01:13:54,000 Speaker 5: has shown zero ability to recreate anything they're doing at all. 1593 01:13:54,040 --> 01:13:57,679 Speaker 5: Tim Boyle's only positive quality is that he's not Zach Wilson. 1594 01:13:57,880 --> 01:14:00,599 Speaker 3: Yeah, the obvious move would be to remove the play caller, 1595 01:14:00,640 --> 01:14:03,479 Speaker 3: but again it's all tied to Rogers And then you 1596 01:14:03,520 --> 01:14:05,960 Speaker 3: see the report on Sunday and I just don't want 1597 01:14:05,960 --> 01:14:08,080 Speaker 3: to even we don't need to dwell too much of this, Seamon, 1598 01:14:08,080 --> 01:14:08,920 Speaker 3: because it's it's. 1599 01:14:08,760 --> 01:14:10,200 Speaker 2: All gross and ugly. 1600 01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:14,560 Speaker 3: But the Ian report this morning that Aaron Rodgers is 1601 01:14:14,640 --> 01:14:17,320 Speaker 3: ramping up his rehaby he could return in some for 1602 01:14:17,439 --> 01:14:19,600 Speaker 3: him to practice in the in the next week, and 1603 01:14:19,640 --> 01:14:21,720 Speaker 3: he's still targeting potentially Christmas Eve. 1604 01:14:22,280 --> 01:14:26,240 Speaker 2: What are we doing? Like, who is in charge? 1605 01:14:26,320 --> 01:14:28,479 Speaker 3: Because I know it's not the head coach because I 1606 01:14:28,520 --> 01:14:30,880 Speaker 3: listen to him and every week he gets a little 1607 01:14:30,920 --> 01:14:31,720 Speaker 3: more powerless. 1608 01:14:32,080 --> 01:14:34,040 Speaker 2: And I don't think that GM's in charge either. 1609 01:14:34,080 --> 01:14:36,960 Speaker 3: I think it is the injured quarterback that's turning forty, 1610 01:14:37,200 --> 01:14:40,200 Speaker 3: that brought in all these bums from Green Bay along 1611 01:14:40,240 --> 01:14:44,080 Speaker 3: with him, and they need to have a you know, 1612 01:14:44,200 --> 01:14:46,720 Speaker 3: Jesus needs to take the wheel of this team and 1613 01:14:46,880 --> 01:14:51,400 Speaker 3: before this turns into as embarrassing a fiasco as anything 1614 01:14:51,400 --> 01:14:54,519 Speaker 3: else previously, because right now I am teetering in my 1615 01:14:54,600 --> 01:14:57,599 Speaker 3: belief that even with healthy Aaron Rodgers, that this team 1616 01:14:57,680 --> 01:15:00,040 Speaker 3: right now is set up in terms of coaching and 1617 01:15:00,120 --> 01:15:02,360 Speaker 3: management to ever come out of the darkness. 1618 01:15:02,360 --> 01:15:04,840 Speaker 4: And it is as dark as it could be right now. 1619 01:15:04,880 --> 01:15:08,040 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, Salas fifteen and thirty. If it continues on 1620 01:15:08,080 --> 01:15:10,400 Speaker 4: this path, I don't think it should be surprising if 1621 01:15:10,479 --> 01:15:13,040 Speaker 4: both he and Joe Douglas lose their jobs and they 1622 01:15:13,080 --> 01:15:15,160 Speaker 4: blow up the whole whole thing. But it depends a 1623 01:15:15,200 --> 01:15:16,360 Speaker 4: little bit on how the rest of. 1624 01:15:18,000 --> 01:15:18,439 Speaker 1: It goes. 1625 01:15:18,479 --> 01:15:21,559 Speaker 4: But they had Lazard was a healthy scratch guaranteed eleven 1626 01:15:21,600 --> 01:15:24,200 Speaker 4: million dollars. I guaranteed more than that for this game, 1627 01:15:24,360 --> 01:15:27,479 Speaker 4: which is wild to flip to the Dolphins. They lost 1628 01:15:27,520 --> 01:15:30,800 Speaker 4: Jalen Phillips, who, to me, along with Jalen Ramsey, is 1629 01:15:30,840 --> 01:15:34,360 Speaker 4: the most important player on their defense, was playing at 1630 01:15:34,400 --> 01:15:38,320 Speaker 4: an outrageous level. Was gonna he still will, you know, 1631 01:15:39,200 --> 01:15:43,040 Speaker 4: get a massive, massive contract, but that you know, torn 1632 01:15:43,040 --> 01:15:46,040 Speaker 4: Achilles is just a huge. 1633 01:15:45,680 --> 01:15:47,519 Speaker 1: Loss because I know that a lands Turf ray. 1634 01:15:47,600 --> 01:15:51,439 Speaker 4: I really thought you you saw the difference because Phillips missed. 1635 01:15:51,479 --> 01:15:52,680 Speaker 4: I think it was two or three games in the 1636 01:15:52,680 --> 01:15:54,080 Speaker 4: middle of the season. I really thought you saw a 1637 01:15:54,120 --> 01:15:57,080 Speaker 4: massive difference because they have a deep defensive line and 1638 01:15:57,120 --> 01:16:00,320 Speaker 4: Wilkins is good, but man, Phillips is the one true 1639 01:16:00,360 --> 01:16:02,760 Speaker 4: difference maker. And then I also think they got to 1640 01:16:02,760 --> 01:16:05,080 Speaker 4: be a little worried that it's It's just I said 1641 01:16:05,080 --> 01:16:07,280 Speaker 4: it before. It's just been a while since we saw 1642 01:16:07,800 --> 01:16:10,720 Speaker 4: a great to a game. He now has twenty interceptions 1643 01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:12,880 Speaker 4: and fumbles on the year. He only had fourteen all 1644 01:16:12,920 --> 01:16:17,599 Speaker 4: of last time. Twenty total interceptions and fumbles combined. Now, wow, 1645 01:16:17,640 --> 01:16:19,080 Speaker 4: there were some bad snaps in there. I want to 1646 01:16:19,120 --> 01:16:20,120 Speaker 4: go through what the fumbles are. 1647 01:16:21,320 --> 01:16:23,759 Speaker 2: Say a lot, he didn't. They didn't lose all those fumbles. 1648 01:16:23,800 --> 01:16:27,599 Speaker 4: But no, no, I I whoa, yeah, he doesn't lead 1649 01:16:27,640 --> 01:16:30,400 Speaker 4: the League in fumble recoveries, because some of those are 1650 01:16:30,439 --> 01:16:33,920 Speaker 4: are bad snaps and everything, but there were some like 1651 01:16:33,960 --> 01:16:35,760 Speaker 4: this game where it was his own fumble and he 1652 01:16:35,800 --> 01:16:37,840 Speaker 4: was picked off twice in the and these weren't like 1653 01:16:38,120 --> 01:16:42,400 Speaker 4: making excuse interceptions. These are just bad interceptions. And then 1654 01:16:42,120 --> 01:16:45,240 Speaker 4: they just they have a freak. They have a brain 1655 01:16:45,360 --> 01:16:47,120 Speaker 4: freeze on third and one and fourth and one. 1656 01:16:47,160 --> 01:16:50,599 Speaker 1: It's crazy. They they just refuse to run the ball forward. 1657 01:16:50,760 --> 01:16:52,840 Speaker 4: They finally did it later in this game, but they 1658 01:16:52,920 --> 01:16:54,920 Speaker 4: just refuse to do it and they never pick it up. 1659 01:16:54,960 --> 01:16:58,640 Speaker 4: They're one of the worst teams. It's so crazy. So 1660 01:16:58,800 --> 01:17:01,439 Speaker 4: it's just little things. They're eaten three. But these are 1661 01:17:01,479 --> 01:17:03,080 Speaker 4: things that they're gonna be his thinking about. 1662 01:17:03,160 --> 01:17:05,000 Speaker 3: I know this is nothing new, but you see it 1663 01:17:05,040 --> 01:17:07,000 Speaker 3: on those throws to the outside on the pick six 1664 01:17:07,040 --> 01:17:08,880 Speaker 3: that he threw to Brandon Eckles and then the I 1665 01:17:09,320 --> 01:17:12,400 Speaker 3: that came before the hall Mary, Like, he just doesn't 1666 01:17:12,439 --> 01:17:14,920 Speaker 3: have great arm strength, so it's just his margin forerer 1667 01:17:15,080 --> 01:17:16,320 Speaker 3: is smaller and when he's. 1668 01:17:16,080 --> 01:17:19,840 Speaker 4: Not sharp, you know still, and he had many great 1669 01:17:20,120 --> 01:17:22,479 Speaker 4: it was a tepical too, a game where like, look, 1670 01:17:22,520 --> 01:17:23,720 Speaker 4: he had some dimes. 1671 01:17:23,360 --> 01:17:25,200 Speaker 2: And so he mixes them in He's like, you see 1672 01:17:25,320 --> 01:17:25,880 Speaker 2: both sides. 1673 01:17:25,920 --> 01:17:29,320 Speaker 3: It's just okay, all right, let's move on and head 1674 01:17:29,400 --> 01:17:30,960 Speaker 3: to the desert where. 1675 01:17:30,680 --> 01:17:32,880 Speaker 2: The Rams were looking feisty again. 1676 01:17:33,680 --> 01:17:36,720 Speaker 8: Back to throw, Stafford lobs it left side and so 1677 01:17:37,080 --> 01:17:43,920 Speaker 8: cuts touchdown. Karen Williams touchdown lay. The second year tailback 1678 01:17:44,360 --> 01:17:48,280 Speaker 8: takes a bow after his second receiving touchdown of the day. 1679 01:17:48,720 --> 01:17:53,680 Speaker 8: It's fourn counting for Matthew Stafford, and now this playoff 1680 01:17:53,800 --> 01:17:55,759 Speaker 8: push has teeth. 1681 01:17:56,120 --> 01:17:58,400 Speaker 1: Whoa JB like that? 1682 01:17:58,720 --> 01:18:01,960 Speaker 2: Our dude call? Yeah? Why not? 1683 01:18:02,280 --> 01:18:02,880 Speaker 5: Five and six? 1684 01:18:03,240 --> 01:18:05,880 Speaker 2: Why not the Rams in the playoffs? 1685 01:18:06,400 --> 01:18:10,400 Speaker 3: After Matt Stafford throws the season high four touchdown passes 1686 01:18:10,439 --> 01:18:14,200 Speaker 3: and Kyron Williams comes back into the lineup and is 1687 01:18:14,240 --> 01:18:17,840 Speaker 3: a major difference maker in this game, running for a 1688 01:18:17,880 --> 01:18:21,360 Speaker 3: buck forty three and also catching six passes for sixty 1689 01:18:21,400 --> 01:18:26,560 Speaker 3: one yards two touchdown catches thirty seven to fourteen. 1690 01:18:27,160 --> 01:18:31,240 Speaker 2: The final pretty impressive, Greg. 1691 01:18:31,920 --> 01:18:34,559 Speaker 4: It's against an Arizona defense which is obviously one of 1692 01:18:34,560 --> 01:18:36,960 Speaker 4: the worst in the league, and it has new injuries, 1693 01:18:37,080 --> 01:18:39,879 Speaker 4: so that is a caveat and they've owned this matchup, 1694 01:18:40,160 --> 01:18:43,400 Speaker 4: but it is extremely impressive to see them dominate the 1695 01:18:43,400 --> 01:18:45,760 Speaker 4: line of scrimmage. The Rams to dominate the line of 1696 01:18:45,800 --> 01:18:48,000 Speaker 4: scrimmage in such a way that you can run for 1697 01:18:48,080 --> 01:18:50,439 Speaker 4: two twenty eight, that Kyron can go for two h 1698 01:18:50,640 --> 01:18:53,880 Speaker 4: five yards from scrimmage, that you can put up thirty 1699 01:18:53,920 --> 01:18:57,200 Speaker 4: seven points in four hundred and fifty seven yards in 1700 01:18:57,280 --> 01:19:01,679 Speaker 4: a game where Puka Nakua Cooper Cup combined for forty 1701 01:19:01,720 --> 01:19:05,000 Speaker 4: five yards. Actually, I think that is a great sign 1702 01:19:05,520 --> 01:19:07,960 Speaker 4: for the health of this team that they can stay 1703 01:19:08,600 --> 01:19:11,799 Speaker 4: feisty because the defense plays with a lot of energy. 1704 01:19:11,840 --> 01:19:14,439 Speaker 4: They did a nice job today. Donald is playing out 1705 01:19:14,479 --> 01:19:17,760 Speaker 4: of his mind. But it needs to be an offensive team, Markie, 1706 01:19:17,800 --> 01:19:20,200 Speaker 4: and this was one of the rare kind of special 1707 01:19:20,360 --> 01:19:22,400 Speaker 4: offensive days that they've had this season where they put 1708 01:19:22,400 --> 01:19:22,880 Speaker 4: it out together. 1709 01:19:22,920 --> 01:19:27,040 Speaker 5: Iron Williams last appeared before today against the Cardinals when 1710 01:19:27,080 --> 01:19:30,120 Speaker 5: we were in London and they had a scant rushing 1711 01:19:30,200 --> 01:19:32,439 Speaker 5: yardage in the first half. Then he exploded for one 1712 01:19:32,520 --> 01:19:35,280 Speaker 5: hundred and fifty eight. So in two games against the 1713 01:19:35,280 --> 01:19:38,400 Speaker 5: Cardinals back to back, they've allowed nearly four hundred yards 1714 01:19:38,439 --> 01:19:42,599 Speaker 5: to him. He's a very interesting player because it's not 1715 01:19:42,680 --> 01:19:48,160 Speaker 5: fluky like. He was absolutely gashing Arizona from wire to wire. 1716 01:19:48,280 --> 01:19:50,840 Speaker 5: This game was eight seven at one point with Kyler 1717 01:19:50,880 --> 01:19:53,559 Speaker 5: Murray running in for a touchdown and they never scored again. 1718 01:19:53,720 --> 01:19:55,800 Speaker 5: They don't look any better on offense with Kyler Murray 1719 01:19:55,800 --> 01:19:56,960 Speaker 5: than they did with Josh Doupps. 1720 01:19:57,040 --> 01:20:01,599 Speaker 4: Hmm, yeah, is that true. I don't know if that's true. 1721 01:20:01,600 --> 01:20:03,800 Speaker 4: They haven't been turning it over. I think they've looked 1722 01:20:03,800 --> 01:20:05,240 Speaker 4: a little bit, but you're right, they're not. They're not 1723 01:20:05,320 --> 01:20:08,920 Speaker 4: lighting it up special. After that first drive where the 1724 01:20:08,920 --> 01:20:10,800 Speaker 4: Cardinals went right down the field, I think their next 1725 01:20:10,800 --> 01:20:13,160 Speaker 4: eight drives they had something like a total of eighty yards. 1726 01:20:13,160 --> 01:20:15,720 Speaker 4: And yeah, it's it's the rookies for the Rams. We 1727 01:20:15,720 --> 01:20:17,679 Speaker 4: don't need to go too long on them, but it's 1728 01:20:17,800 --> 01:20:21,200 Speaker 4: it's pretty crazy that they didn't. They didn't have a 1729 01:20:21,200 --> 01:20:23,639 Speaker 4: first round draft pick, am I right? And yet they 1730 01:20:23,680 --> 01:20:26,000 Speaker 4: have one of the best rookie classes in a long time. 1731 01:20:26,040 --> 01:20:27,880 Speaker 4: And that was the whole idea they loaded up with 1732 01:20:27,920 --> 01:20:32,200 Speaker 4: these picks. They have four guys making huge difference. Steve 1733 01:20:32,240 --> 01:20:34,320 Speaker 4: Avila is going to be starting at guard for them 1734 01:20:34,360 --> 01:20:36,720 Speaker 4: for a long time, like a difference making guard. You 1735 01:20:36,760 --> 01:20:40,360 Speaker 4: have Pukinakua. You have Byron Young, who's among the leaders 1736 01:20:41,120 --> 01:20:44,240 Speaker 4: in quarterback hits and certainly tops among all rookies. And 1737 01:20:44,280 --> 01:20:46,880 Speaker 4: then Kobe Turner had a couple of sacks today and 1738 01:20:46,880 --> 01:20:47,840 Speaker 4: has been a really good starter. 1739 01:20:47,960 --> 01:20:50,360 Speaker 1: That's four rookie starters. They're five and six. 1740 01:20:50,400 --> 01:20:53,799 Speaker 4: This is actually, I think basically exactly what Sean McVay 1741 01:20:53,880 --> 01:20:56,120 Speaker 4: was hoping for out of this season. Some meaningful games 1742 01:20:56,120 --> 01:20:58,519 Speaker 4: in December and the rookies and and real guys we 1743 01:20:58,520 --> 01:20:59,120 Speaker 4: can build around. 1744 01:20:59,120 --> 01:21:00,639 Speaker 1: And oh, by the way, Aaron I don't still playing 1745 01:21:00,680 --> 01:21:01,360 Speaker 1: at it really high. 1746 01:21:01,439 --> 01:21:04,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, like this is you're right, this is what he wanted, 1747 01:21:04,439 --> 01:21:07,360 Speaker 3: which is this is a development year with all these 1748 01:21:07,400 --> 01:21:10,960 Speaker 3: young players. If we could be in contention while we're developing, 1749 01:21:11,760 --> 01:21:13,479 Speaker 3: and then you could build with a nice draft and 1750 01:21:13,520 --> 01:21:15,719 Speaker 3: free agency class next year, all of a sudden, you're back. 1751 01:21:15,800 --> 01:21:19,519 Speaker 2: So yeah, so far the path there is clear for them. 1752 01:21:19,560 --> 01:21:21,519 Speaker 3: They've they've done a nice job and it's just now 1753 01:21:21,560 --> 01:21:24,479 Speaker 3: about can you keep Stafford upright and healthy because when 1754 01:21:24,520 --> 01:21:27,320 Speaker 3: he is healthy and slinging it, they can score points 1755 01:21:27,320 --> 01:21:30,160 Speaker 3: of Villa was their first pick, thirty six overall in 1756 01:21:30,200 --> 01:21:32,360 Speaker 3: the second round, so you. 1757 01:21:32,320 --> 01:21:33,840 Speaker 2: Know, I think they have a first round pick this 1758 01:21:33,920 --> 01:21:35,800 Speaker 2: year coming up, and first. 1759 01:21:35,520 --> 01:21:38,000 Speaker 4: Time in like a decade, Hey doo and and Stafford 1760 01:21:38,000 --> 01:21:41,160 Speaker 4: who's touched down interception ratios looks so wonky all year, 1761 01:21:41,200 --> 01:21:43,479 Speaker 4: it's been annoying for how well he's played. It's nice 1762 01:21:43,520 --> 01:21:45,160 Speaker 4: to see him just put up a four spot. It's 1763 01:21:45,160 --> 01:21:48,000 Speaker 4: like a corrective measure. I don't know what he did 1764 01:21:48,040 --> 01:21:51,040 Speaker 4: in the off season, but I swear he is moving 1765 01:21:51,120 --> 01:21:54,479 Speaker 4: better and looks more agile and mobile than he's ever 1766 01:21:54,520 --> 01:21:56,840 Speaker 4: looked in his career, Like he was evading a ton 1767 01:21:56,880 --> 01:21:59,840 Speaker 4: of sacks and making good sort of second reaction plays today. 1768 01:22:00,439 --> 01:22:01,760 Speaker 2: Love it, Love to see it. 1769 01:22:02,840 --> 01:22:04,479 Speaker 3: Don't think he has an outside shot at the Hall 1770 01:22:04,520 --> 01:22:07,720 Speaker 3: of Fame, the Strong Final a couple of years. 1771 01:22:08,280 --> 01:22:09,080 Speaker 1: I think he has a shot. 1772 01:22:09,160 --> 01:22:09,559 Speaker 5: Fringy. 1773 01:22:10,120 --> 01:22:12,519 Speaker 4: I think he has a decent shot. Oh sure, if 1774 01:22:12,560 --> 01:22:14,360 Speaker 4: I would do it, But he has a shot. Browns 1775 01:22:14,400 --> 01:22:17,160 Speaker 4: next week they are in the mix. 1776 01:22:17,640 --> 01:22:20,120 Speaker 5: They have Browns, then Ravens. They also have the Niners 1777 01:22:20,120 --> 01:22:22,040 Speaker 5: on their schedule out. Oh yeah, it's gonna be. 1778 01:22:22,080 --> 01:22:22,840 Speaker 1: But there's there in the mix. 1779 01:22:22,880 --> 01:22:24,720 Speaker 5: There's some winnable games in there too. 1780 01:22:24,760 --> 01:22:27,280 Speaker 4: You could go across the sidewalk mark for that game 1781 01:22:27,400 --> 01:22:31,519 Speaker 4: Brown's Rams, you know, I guess I could little four 1782 01:22:31,560 --> 01:22:33,800 Speaker 4: to twenty five action come back for the pod. 1783 01:22:34,000 --> 01:22:37,080 Speaker 3: You could uh put on a ninety five miles Garret 1784 01:22:37,200 --> 01:22:38,639 Speaker 3: Jersey and put LEVI over it. 1785 01:22:39,760 --> 01:22:41,240 Speaker 2: Nice little one, nice little ape. 1786 01:22:41,280 --> 01:22:43,120 Speaker 1: Ah, Okay, there you go. 1787 01:22:43,760 --> 01:22:45,360 Speaker 2: Well across?

Let us 1817 01:23:54,200 --> 01:23:59,200 Speaker 3: now move to Nashville where the Titans get the woebegone Panthers. 1818 01:23:59,080 --> 01:24:03,439 Speaker 1: Rice seventeen to thirty for one four on the day. 1819 01:24:04,080 --> 01:24:05,719 Speaker 2: Come on, Price, do something. 1820 01:24:05,840 --> 01:24:08,400 Speaker 1: But right here, three receivers to the left. Come on, 1821 01:24:08,560 --> 01:24:11,480 Speaker 1: Titan's showing pressure, get a cup. 1822 01:24:11,560 --> 01:24:13,080 Speaker 2: Come on, throw it left side. 1823 01:24:13,200 --> 01:24:14,320 Speaker 1: Chart he's hit. 1824 01:24:14,640 --> 01:24:15,479 Speaker 2: He's dropped. 1825 01:24:17,080 --> 01:24:21,040 Speaker 16: Now my body hooker got him, basically at the line 1826 01:24:21,080 --> 01:24:25,960 Speaker 16: of scrimmage, and ladies and gentlemen, this one is a 1827 01:24:26,040 --> 01:24:27,280 Speaker 16: minute fifty five. 1828 01:24:27,920 --> 01:24:32,920 Speaker 1: I'm being over. Yes, been a minute since they had 1829 01:24:32,920 --> 01:24:33,920 Speaker 1: a win. So I get it. 1830 01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:34,640 Speaker 2: I told you. 1831 01:24:34,720 --> 01:24:39,719 Speaker 3: Then they when the color guy forgets what his job 1832 01:24:39,800 --> 01:24:43,679 Speaker 3: is and he just screams out some type of guttural 1833 01:24:44,360 --> 01:24:49,880 Speaker 3: response one of my favorite things. Yes, yes, and it 1834 01:24:50,000 --> 01:24:54,559 Speaker 3: was indeed a Saints excuse me, a Titans team that 1835 01:24:54,680 --> 01:24:58,639 Speaker 3: needed to win and stayed undefeated at home, by the way, 1836 01:24:59,280 --> 01:25:03,280 Speaker 3: and taking care of business here against the Panthers seventeen 1837 01:25:03,840 --> 01:25:09,240 Speaker 3: to ten. That one in ten Panthers and Bryce Young 1838 01:25:09,800 --> 01:25:14,280 Speaker 3: in this game. That was a checked out of a 1839 01:25:14,320 --> 01:25:18,360 Speaker 3: play for that screen the DJ Shark on a fourth 1840 01:25:18,360 --> 01:25:21,559 Speaker 3: and six that went nowhere, and Frank Reich said after 1841 01:25:21,600 --> 01:25:24,280 Speaker 3: the game that listen that that was the right move. 1842 01:25:24,479 --> 01:25:27,320 Speaker 3: They're showing a defense, a zero defense that if you 1843 01:25:27,360 --> 01:25:31,439 Speaker 3: beat that blitz, that can go for a touchdown. But 1844 01:25:31,479 --> 01:25:33,960 Speaker 3: they didn't quite run the right route. That's not typically 1845 01:25:34,000 --> 01:25:38,280 Speaker 3: sharks purview. But they had some injuries and it doesn't 1846 01:25:38,320 --> 01:25:40,479 Speaker 3: work out. And that's just like the story of this team, 1847 01:25:40,600 --> 01:25:43,080 Speaker 3: like they can't seem to get it going. Bryce Young 1848 01:25:43,160 --> 01:25:46,599 Speaker 3: can't seem to get it going, and as a result, 1849 01:25:47,240 --> 01:25:50,400 Speaker 3: they are steaming not towards. 1850 01:25:50,200 --> 01:25:53,120 Speaker 2: The number one overall pick because they traded it. So 1851 01:25:53,200 --> 01:25:55,479 Speaker 2: it's like a lot of negativity and a lot of pain. 1852 01:25:55,560 --> 01:25:58,439 Speaker 3: And then you see here's a tweet I believe from 1853 01:25:58,479 --> 01:26:01,439 Speaker 3: Joe Person who covers the Panthers after the game. 1854 01:26:01,920 --> 01:26:04,320 Speaker 2: Uh, we might be we might be steaming. 1855 01:26:04,000 --> 01:26:07,599 Speaker 3: Towards another episode of a Tepper b talking our new 1856 01:26:07,640 --> 01:26:10,679 Speaker 3: big series ready to launch. At some point the season, 1857 01:26:11,040 --> 01:26:15,720 Speaker 3: person reports leaving the locker room, David Tepper shook his head. 1858 01:26:15,280 --> 01:26:18,439 Speaker 5: And yelled, that's not good. 1859 01:26:20,560 --> 01:26:25,880 Speaker 21: Well, it's f dash dash dash, But I think, I think, 1860 01:26:26,040 --> 01:26:31,720 Speaker 21: and I'm sorry, Eric, but this is this is journalism. 1861 01:26:31,720 --> 01:26:34,240 Speaker 2: It's the owner, the owner. 1862 01:26:34,520 --> 01:26:37,160 Speaker 5: We have to assume that's the word that's being right. 1863 01:26:37,720 --> 01:26:38,760 Speaker 1: It could have been a different word. 1864 01:26:38,760 --> 01:26:42,200 Speaker 4: It could have been like Franngie break Franjie one of 1865 01:26:42,200 --> 01:26:42,599 Speaker 4: the great. 1866 01:26:44,400 --> 01:26:48,280 Speaker 5: I mean, there's there's you know, oh man, there's evidence 1867 01:26:48,320 --> 01:26:51,800 Speaker 5: that the owner is the one that Bryce Young over 1868 01:26:51,840 --> 01:26:53,320 Speaker 5: anyone else too. And well, of. 1869 01:26:53,280 --> 01:26:56,120 Speaker 3: Course, well yeah, and I think there's obviously a lot 1870 01:26:56,160 --> 01:26:59,400 Speaker 3: of that's mean to say, blame to go around, but 1871 01:26:59,479 --> 01:27:01,720 Speaker 3: with c. J. Strad doing what he's doing, it's just 1872 01:27:01,760 --> 01:27:03,719 Speaker 3: all the more frustrating. So you have all that going 1873 01:27:03,720 --> 01:27:06,160 Speaker 3: on around Charlotte, it's just a bad vibe. On the 1874 01:27:06,160 --> 01:27:09,519 Speaker 3: Tennessee side of things, you got some positive Derrick Henry 1875 01:27:09,600 --> 01:27:12,679 Speaker 3: had two touchdowns here and Henry I feel like this year, 1876 01:27:13,080 --> 01:27:15,120 Speaker 3: you see it's a different version of Henry because what 1877 01:27:15,160 --> 01:27:17,720 Speaker 3: he used to do and what made him a Hall 1878 01:27:17,720 --> 01:27:20,320 Speaker 3: of Famer makes them hall of famer is he would 1879 01:27:20,320 --> 01:27:22,200 Speaker 3: have these days where he was just kind of like 1880 01:27:22,600 --> 01:27:25,680 Speaker 3: waiting to break one, and his numbers look mundane, and 1881 01:27:25,720 --> 01:27:27,920 Speaker 3: then bang he goes for sixty eight and then that 1882 01:27:28,040 --> 01:27:31,840 Speaker 3: average jumps from three point two on eighteen carries to 1883 01:27:32,000 --> 01:27:34,880 Speaker 3: five point nine or whatever like those. You don't see 1884 01:27:34,880 --> 01:27:37,920 Speaker 3: those runs as much anymore, but he still is a guy. 1885 01:27:37,960 --> 01:27:40,000 Speaker 3: You get the ball to him in the red zone, 1886 01:27:40,120 --> 01:27:41,680 Speaker 3: he could find a way so they get it to 1887 01:27:41,720 --> 01:27:45,479 Speaker 3: Henry will Levis is not equalled that debut game yet 1888 01:27:45,479 --> 01:27:47,080 Speaker 3: and not come close to not throw a touchdown on 1889 01:27:47,200 --> 01:27:49,559 Speaker 3: this game, but I thought I saw some progress from 1890 01:27:49,640 --> 01:27:52,920 Speaker 3: him this week in terms of his decision making and 1891 01:27:53,040 --> 01:27:55,599 Speaker 3: in general. I thought it was a pretty clean effort 1892 01:27:55,800 --> 01:27:59,240 Speaker 3: by the Titans. A team that's four and seven, four 1893 01:27:59,280 --> 01:28:01,080 Speaker 3: and one in home, should say not undefeated. 1894 01:28:01,120 --> 01:28:04,599 Speaker 4: Well, that was their only home loss was in London. 1895 01:28:06,400 --> 01:28:07,960 Speaker 4: What they have to be they have to have the 1896 01:28:08,000 --> 01:28:11,120 Speaker 4: worst record for any team that hasn't lost in their 1897 01:28:11,160 --> 01:28:13,679 Speaker 4: home stadium like entering December. 1898 01:28:13,720 --> 01:28:15,439 Speaker 3: And I'll can see what a what a feat Yeah, 1899 01:28:15,479 --> 01:28:17,839 Speaker 3: I'll can see to you Mark that you watching Giants 1900 01:28:17,880 --> 01:28:20,360 Speaker 3: Pats is probably the worst game of the day. But 1901 01:28:21,120 --> 01:28:23,280 Speaker 3: two hundred and sixty four yards with the Titans, two 1902 01:28:23,400 --> 01:28:26,720 Speaker 3: fifty eight for the Panthers. This was not a game 1903 01:28:26,720 --> 01:28:29,200 Speaker 3: that it's going to like be sticky in my brain 1904 01:28:29,280 --> 01:28:29,800 Speaker 3: moving forward. 1905 01:28:29,880 --> 01:28:32,759 Speaker 5: No, sure, and I've yet to examine it super closely, 1906 01:28:32,840 --> 01:28:34,559 Speaker 5: so I could be wrong about that. I can look 1907 01:28:34,560 --> 01:28:38,080 Speaker 5: forward to intee you that Patriots Giants was no treat. 1908 01:28:38,200 --> 01:28:40,600 Speaker 4: I want to hear your breakdown of really what you 1909 01:28:40,720 --> 01:28:42,719 Speaker 4: take away from from this game. 1910 01:28:44,240 --> 01:28:48,120 Speaker 5: I did read that Jeffrey Simmons was absolutely dominant. 1911 01:28:47,800 --> 01:28:53,280 Speaker 4: Retackles for loss, had a sack in this game. He's great. 1912 01:28:53,680 --> 01:28:55,320 Speaker 4: I think that's all we need. 1913 01:28:55,680 --> 01:28:56,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, do we have any Oh? 1914 01:28:56,680 --> 01:28:59,880 Speaker 4: Wait, I do have an update on on Frank Wright 1915 01:29:01,120 --> 01:29:04,760 Speaker 4: that actually to me is more Frank, more concerning, maybe 1916 01:29:04,840 --> 01:29:09,639 Speaker 4: even than the owner yelling that word. Will Counkle of Fox, Yeah, 1917 01:29:09,800 --> 01:29:13,880 Speaker 4: real person, local Fox hust as you. I don't know, 1918 01:29:14,120 --> 01:29:17,200 Speaker 4: but he says he was told Frank Reich's coaching seat 1919 01:29:17,280 --> 01:29:21,479 Speaker 4: is quote on fire her source. Now, to be fair, 1920 01:29:21,560 --> 01:29:25,200 Speaker 4: Will Conkle works at Fox twenty six Houston. 1921 01:29:25,280 --> 01:29:27,080 Speaker 1: He's reporting on the Panthers. 1922 01:29:27,160 --> 01:29:29,120 Speaker 4: I'm sure he does a great job, but I'm right, 1923 01:29:29,280 --> 01:29:30,479 Speaker 4: I'm not familiar with it. 1924 01:29:30,720 --> 01:29:32,200 Speaker 2: I don't know what the sourcing is on this. I 1925 01:29:32,240 --> 01:29:33,360 Speaker 2: don't know how we reported this. 1926 01:29:33,479 --> 01:29:37,160 Speaker 3: But he is right because Frank Reich has the kind 1927 01:29:37,160 --> 01:29:40,559 Speaker 3: of a sad sack look on the sideline, and he 1928 01:29:40,640 --> 01:29:44,280 Speaker 3: was brought in to work with Bryce Young and and 1929 01:29:45,560 --> 01:29:48,120 Speaker 3: make him a big time player. He's shown very little 1930 01:29:48,200 --> 01:29:50,800 Speaker 3: progress or averaging twelve points a game in the last 1931 01:29:50,840 --> 01:29:53,280 Speaker 3: five weeks. And on top of everything else, it should 1932 01:29:53,280 --> 01:29:58,120 Speaker 3: be said, in fairness to to the young quarterback that 1933 01:29:58,320 --> 01:30:00,919 Speaker 3: they had injuries on the interior of the offensive line. 1934 01:30:01,120 --> 01:30:03,719 Speaker 3: So that's not making any easier. He does play small. 1935 01:30:04,880 --> 01:30:06,600 Speaker 3: You watch these games and you see it. Just he 1936 01:30:06,680 --> 01:30:09,160 Speaker 3: doesn't look like he's in a comfortable place in the 1937 01:30:09,200 --> 01:30:15,760 Speaker 3: league right now. So you know, three Carolina coaches had 1938 01:30:15,840 --> 01:30:19,799 Speaker 3: seasons with thirteen or more losses from ESPN, Dom Caper's 1939 01:30:19,840 --> 01:30:23,679 Speaker 3: four and twelve and ninety eight, Seafert, George Seffertlan Panthers. Yeah, 1940 01:30:23,840 --> 01:30:28,880 Speaker 3: one of the aviators with the white hair, George Seffert 1941 01:30:28,920 --> 01:30:31,639 Speaker 3: one in fifteen in two thousand and one, John Fox 1942 01:30:31,680 --> 01:30:35,559 Speaker 3: two and fourteen in twenty ten before Cam got there. 1943 01:30:36,080 --> 01:30:39,439 Speaker 3: They all were fired after that season. This smells like 1944 01:30:39,520 --> 01:30:42,000 Speaker 3: a two and fifteen one and done for Reich.

Since he 1966 01:31:30,680 --> 01:31:34,080 Speaker 3: replaced Richardson, they've been a mess. 1967 01:31:34,240 --> 01:31:34,439 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1968 01:31:34,560 --> 01:31:37,719 Speaker 4: Right, It is a reminder because I frustration must be immense. 1969 01:31:37,760 --> 01:31:40,519 Speaker 4: I'm guilty of this too. You know Richardson, we weren't 1970 01:31:40,600 --> 01:31:43,320 Speaker 4: fans of it, and there was this whole idea just like, hey, 1971 01:31:43,960 --> 01:31:46,640 Speaker 4: David Tepper's going to come in and he's been successful 1972 01:31:46,680 --> 01:31:48,840 Speaker 4: and he's run business. It was like, now they've got 1973 01:31:48,840 --> 01:31:51,320 Speaker 4: great ownership. He's gonna get what he wants. That's what 1974 01:31:51,360 --> 01:31:54,080 Speaker 4: Tepper does. And it's like, actually, you're gonna do what 1975 01:31:54,560 --> 01:31:57,640 Speaker 4: most new NFL owners is, which is just waste your 1976 01:31:57,680 --> 01:32:00,800 Speaker 4: first five years with a ton of mistake favors. 1977 01:32:01,040 --> 01:32:05,479 Speaker 3: My favorite Panther's trope the first couple of years in 1978 01:32:05,520 --> 01:32:08,000 Speaker 3: this era was Teppard knows how to close a deal. 1979 01:32:08,160 --> 01:32:08,400 Speaker 19: Right. 1980 01:32:09,160 --> 01:32:13,000 Speaker 5: Well, you know we're not uh still paying Matt rule. 1981 01:32:13,400 --> 01:32:16,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, we are not trading on the open stock market. 1982 01:32:17,120 --> 01:32:21,720 Speaker 3: We are not absorbing other businesses and hostile takeovers. 1983 01:32:22,120 --> 01:32:27,120 Speaker 2: We're trying to lift Lombardies a little different, all right. 1984 01:32:27,160 --> 01:32:28,080 Speaker 2: To Sunday ef football. 1985 01:32:28,160 --> 01:32:33,320 Speaker 5: He sends Zay Flowers wide to the right. Cowie brings 1986 01:32:33,360 --> 01:32:35,519 Speaker 5: flowers in motion to the left. He gives them the 1987 01:32:35,560 --> 01:32:36,639 Speaker 5: flowers on the jet sweet. 1988 01:32:36,640 --> 01:32:38,080 Speaker 1: He cuts himself the numbers. 1989 01:32:37,800 --> 01:32:41,280 Speaker 2: Piece of the herby turn turn burn touch. 1990 01:32:43,840 --> 01:32:47,599 Speaker 1: Jase is in the barn. I'm a raven knock out. 1991 01:32:47,400 --> 01:32:50,920 Speaker 2: The Chargers in away, I love it, I love it. 1992 01:32:51,840 --> 01:32:53,400 Speaker 2: Jaz is in the barn. 1993 01:32:55,560 --> 01:33:03,120 Speaker 3: Jerry Sandusky with the call yes Zay Flowers in a 1994 01:33:03,200 --> 01:33:06,120 Speaker 3: third and short scenario that just need the first down, 1995 01:33:07,600 --> 01:33:10,800 Speaker 3: but Zay saw daylight and he took advantage of it, 1996 01:33:10,840 --> 01:33:14,599 Speaker 3: taking it to the house his second touchdown of the game. 1997 01:33:14,680 --> 01:33:16,760 Speaker 3: That was from thirty seven yards out, and it was 1998 01:33:18,360 --> 01:33:22,160 Speaker 3: the decider in a Ravens twenty to ten win over 1999 01:33:22,240 --> 01:33:25,840 Speaker 3: the Chargers. The Chargers all but dead now at four 2000 01:33:25,880 --> 01:33:30,360 Speaker 3: and seven after another lackluster primetime performance in the Ravens 2001 01:33:31,080 --> 01:33:35,719 Speaker 3: nine to three sit a top the AFC with six 2002 01:33:35,800 --> 01:33:40,280 Speaker 3: games to play, ors five games to play. Dan Hansen's 2003 01:33:40,680 --> 01:33:45,200 Speaker 3: with Greg Now, as we made our hasty retreat from 2004 01:33:45,280 --> 01:33:50,800 Speaker 3: Sofi Stadium back to our respective homes, Mark didn't make it. 2005 01:33:51,120 --> 01:33:57,080 Speaker 3: Mark ran into some traffic, some type of holiday parade 2006 01:33:57,080 --> 01:33:59,400 Speaker 3: in Hollywood. So it's just going to be you and me, 2007 01:33:59,520 --> 01:34:04,000 Speaker 3: Greg and the Ravens feel no pain after yet another win. 2008 01:34:04,720 --> 01:34:06,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel for Mark. 2009 01:34:06,920 --> 01:34:08,680 Speaker 4: We were trying to avoid the traffic and he got 2010 01:34:08,720 --> 01:34:10,960 Speaker 4: stuck in the Hollywood Christmas parade. 2011 01:34:11,040 --> 01:34:14,760 Speaker 3: So from moving to Hollywood, which is you know, your 2012 01:34:14,760 --> 01:34:16,400 Speaker 3: whole life is traffic when you live in that. 2013 01:34:16,479 --> 01:34:17,160 Speaker 2: Part of the city. 2014 01:34:19,000 --> 01:34:22,719 Speaker 4: I'm I'm sure he's feeling like Chargers fans right now, 2015 01:34:22,760 --> 01:34:27,840 Speaker 4: like we just went through this whole experience to just 2016 01:34:28,120 --> 01:34:33,360 Speaker 4: end in such an incredibly frustrating and yet familiar way. 2017 01:34:33,400 --> 01:34:36,160 Speaker 4: Like the Chargers, they find ways to lose games in 2018 01:34:36,200 --> 01:34:38,439 Speaker 4: new and creative ways in this Ravens team, even though 2019 01:34:38,439 --> 01:34:40,040 Speaker 4: they're gonna come out of this, and you could hear 2020 01:34:40,080 --> 01:34:42,760 Speaker 4: it in Lamar Jackson's voice after the game, very frustrated 2021 01:34:42,760 --> 01:34:47,439 Speaker 4: with what he said was a flat offensive performance. They 2022 01:34:47,439 --> 01:34:50,360 Speaker 4: can win like any type of different game, and this 2023 01:34:50,439 --> 01:34:53,479 Speaker 4: was a game where they're plus four in turnovers, and 2024 01:34:53,520 --> 01:34:56,320 Speaker 4: they can also almost blow any ten point lead in 2025 01:34:56,360 --> 01:34:58,360 Speaker 4: the fourth quarter. It felt like they might do that 2026 01:34:58,479 --> 01:35:02,000 Speaker 4: here with the Chargers is driving down only three with 2027 01:35:02,080 --> 01:35:04,720 Speaker 4: a couple of minutes to go, but this defense is 2028 01:35:04,800 --> 01:35:09,120 Speaker 4: ultimately just too good to lose to all But like 2029 01:35:09,439 --> 01:35:12,080 Speaker 4: real contending teams, I know they've had had some slip 2030 01:35:12,160 --> 01:35:15,000 Speaker 4: up performances, but on a day like today, it's hard 2031 01:35:15,080 --> 01:35:16,600 Speaker 4: not to feel like they're one of the you know. 2032 01:35:16,680 --> 01:35:19,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, And Jason Garrett said it on the telecast, weirdly, 2033 01:35:19,360 --> 01:35:21,360 Speaker 3: filling in for Chris Collinsworth. I don't know what the 2034 01:35:21,439 --> 01:35:25,439 Speaker 3: details were on that either, but Garrett pointed out that yes, 2035 01:35:25,560 --> 01:35:28,880 Speaker 3: this is not the two thousand Ravens, and no team 2036 01:35:28,920 --> 01:35:32,679 Speaker 3: really is the two thousand Ravens except perhaps the eighty 2037 01:35:32,680 --> 01:35:36,519 Speaker 3: five Bears, but they're built similarly and how they how 2038 01:35:36,560 --> 01:35:40,639 Speaker 3: the defense is huge upfront and elements of the how 2039 01:35:40,640 --> 01:35:43,599 Speaker 3: they constructed that side of the ball, and they play 2040 01:35:43,640 --> 01:35:46,160 Speaker 3: well and they make you earn every yard and they 2041 01:35:46,280 --> 01:35:49,200 Speaker 3: hit you hard, and it's just a well coach, well 2042 01:35:49,240 --> 01:35:54,320 Speaker 3: schemed attack or defense. And the Chargers quite frankly, are 2043 01:35:54,320 --> 01:35:58,400 Speaker 3: not built to beat a good defense, which seems weird 2044 01:35:59,200 --> 01:36:03,839 Speaker 3: when Justin Herbert is your quarterback and you have Austin 2045 01:36:03,880 --> 01:36:06,400 Speaker 3: Eckler as you're running back, and you have Keenan Allen 2046 01:36:06,439 --> 01:36:09,320 Speaker 3: closing in on one hundred catches before December. 2047 01:36:09,720 --> 01:36:11,040 Speaker 2: But that's really the offense. 2048 01:36:11,120 --> 01:36:13,000 Speaker 3: And that's part of the problem with this team is 2049 01:36:13,040 --> 01:36:16,400 Speaker 3: that they lost Mike Williams, and Quinton Johnson has been 2050 01:36:16,439 --> 01:36:20,439 Speaker 3: a bust in his first year, and and Eckler hasn't 2051 01:36:20,439 --> 01:36:22,920 Speaker 3: been the same player this year, and Herbert has not 2052 01:36:23,000 --> 01:36:25,400 Speaker 3: been able to lift the offense. 2053 01:36:26,120 --> 01:36:27,679 Speaker 2: With the cast that he has. 2054 01:36:27,720 --> 01:36:30,280 Speaker 3: He averaged less than five yards attempt in this game, 2055 01:36:30,360 --> 01:36:36,640 Speaker 3: had a costly sack fumble late that obviously you know 2056 01:36:36,680 --> 01:36:38,840 Speaker 3: he was beat up on the play as well, and 2057 01:36:38,880 --> 01:36:41,880 Speaker 3: he's been taking a beating at times this year. It's 2058 01:36:41,920 --> 01:36:45,640 Speaker 3: just been very frustrating for this Chargers offense, which was 2059 01:36:45,640 --> 01:36:48,760 Speaker 3: supposed to be better with Kellen Moore this year, but 2060 01:36:48,960 --> 01:36:49,960 Speaker 3: I just haven't seen that. 2061 01:36:50,720 --> 01:36:54,920 Speaker 4: No Quinton Johnson has kind of killed them because after 2062 01:36:54,960 --> 01:36:57,840 Speaker 4: Williams's injury and Josh Palmer's injury, that's their two and 2063 01:36:57,880 --> 01:37:01,200 Speaker 4: their three, and Palmer was a really good three. They 2064 01:37:01,240 --> 01:37:02,880 Speaker 4: just needed him to step up. I think he would 2065 01:37:02,920 --> 01:37:06,240 Speaker 4: have been benched if they had any other options. And 2066 01:37:06,280 --> 01:37:09,120 Speaker 4: in this game, like he has the two killer drops 2067 01:37:09,280 --> 01:37:13,680 Speaker 4: and then he gets hurt unfortunately, and look, Herbert like 2068 01:37:14,840 --> 01:37:17,040 Speaker 4: was doing everything they could. And I just thought that 2069 01:37:17,120 --> 01:37:19,760 Speaker 4: third quarter into the fourth quarter drive that they spent 2070 01:37:19,880 --> 01:37:22,360 Speaker 4: nineteen plays in over eight and a half minutes to 2071 01:37:22,400 --> 01:37:27,080 Speaker 4: go before it ends getting nothing because of the clowney 2072 01:37:27,520 --> 01:37:31,280 Speaker 4: sack fumble was just so fitting because they knew they 2073 01:37:31,360 --> 01:37:33,599 Speaker 4: needed big plays at that point, but they just don't 2074 01:37:33,600 --> 01:37:35,439 Speaker 4: have it. That was the only way that they were 2075 01:37:35,479 --> 01:37:37,160 Speaker 4: going to move the ball, even though they were kind 2076 01:37:37,200 --> 01:37:40,200 Speaker 4: of killing the clock on themselves. And yeah, they did 2077 01:37:40,200 --> 01:37:42,479 Speaker 4: get the touchdown the next drive after that. They didn't 2078 01:37:42,520 --> 01:37:45,000 Speaker 4: totally lay down in this game, but there's just a 2079 01:37:45,000 --> 01:37:48,280 Speaker 4: total lack of explosion. I'm amazed how how keenan Allen 2080 01:37:48,720 --> 01:37:50,720 Speaker 4: is racking up. He had fourteen for one zh six 2081 01:37:50,840 --> 01:37:53,400 Speaker 4: like doing this week after week when opposing defense is no, 2082 01:37:53,800 --> 01:37:54,920 Speaker 4: that's basically all they have. 2083 01:37:55,240 --> 01:37:59,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it was fourteen catches on sixteen targets 2084 01:37:59,439 --> 01:38:03,160 Speaker 3: for a while. Was the receptions were echoing the targets 2085 01:38:03,200 --> 01:38:05,320 Speaker 3: until late in the fourth quarter. But also, you know, 2086 01:38:05,680 --> 01:38:08,000 Speaker 3: and this is not taking away from Allen, but he 2087 01:38:08,320 --> 01:38:12,120 Speaker 3: is the greatest chain mover in the game right now. 2088 01:38:12,120 --> 01:38:15,519 Speaker 3: He's not a dynamic downfield player. He averaged seven and 2089 01:38:15,560 --> 01:38:17,320 Speaker 3: a half yards of reception. He got one hundred and 2090 01:38:17,320 --> 01:38:20,640 Speaker 3: six yards off fourteen catches. So while he is an 2091 01:38:20,720 --> 01:38:22,920 Speaker 3: essential part of an offense that any team would love 2092 01:38:22,960 --> 01:38:26,679 Speaker 3: to have, he's not your prototypical number one all Pro 2093 01:38:27,000 --> 01:38:30,240 Speaker 3: game wrecker in the same way as other players across 2094 01:38:30,240 --> 01:38:33,080 Speaker 3: the league at that possession. So they need someone with him, 2095 01:38:33,240 --> 01:38:37,320 Speaker 3: and it's just not there. And you know, what is 2096 01:38:37,360 --> 01:38:40,600 Speaker 3: that Wait, what's that sound I hear? What is that 2097 01:38:40,680 --> 01:38:43,040 Speaker 3: sound I hear in the distance in the sky above us? 2098 01:38:43,120 --> 01:38:49,080 Speaker 3: Is Oh, my goodness, the rain maker. 2099 01:38:51,400 --> 01:38:52,559 Speaker 2: Oh it's the rain maker. 2100 01:38:53,120 --> 01:38:53,559 Speaker 1: That's right. 2101 01:38:53,600 --> 01:38:56,240 Speaker 4: All you boys and girls, get your ad Ben Calendar's 2102 01:38:56,280 --> 01:39:02,559 Speaker 4: out and start unwrapping Greg the say flowers, thank you 2103 01:39:02,720 --> 01:39:05,000 Speaker 4: very much for not going down at the one yard line. 2104 01:39:05,000 --> 01:39:07,559 Speaker 4: That would have been a tough way to go out. 2105 01:39:07,640 --> 01:39:11,360 Speaker 3: Greg, you are living the most charmed existence this season. 2106 01:39:11,520 --> 01:39:16,960 Speaker 2: I must say I envy you. It's high level envy. 2107 01:39:17,240 --> 01:39:21,720 Speaker 3: Justin Tucker misses a automatic kick for him to keep 2108 01:39:21,760 --> 01:39:23,280 Speaker 3: it the spreads three and a half. 2109 01:39:23,880 --> 01:39:25,479 Speaker 1: He missed it up, by the way, too. 2110 01:39:25,680 --> 01:39:27,960 Speaker 2: We locked this up too. He locked it up as well. 2111 01:39:28,320 --> 01:39:29,280 Speaker 2: He misses the kick. 2112 01:39:29,320 --> 01:39:33,040 Speaker 3: The Chargers take over fail as they do, and then 2113 01:39:33,160 --> 01:39:36,640 Speaker 3: it is comes down to what looks like to be 2114 01:39:36,720 --> 01:39:39,720 Speaker 3: a thirteen to ten win if they just pick up 2115 01:39:39,720 --> 01:39:42,040 Speaker 3: the first down, and yes they not. 2116 01:39:42,080 --> 01:39:45,040 Speaker 11: Only does he get the first down on third and short, 2117 01:39:45,200 --> 01:39:47,439 Speaker 11: he doesn't go down because he wanted to do his 2118 01:39:47,479 --> 01:39:51,639 Speaker 11: penalty kick celebration and that gets Greg the rain Maker 2119 01:39:51,720 --> 01:39:52,160 Speaker 11: lock up. 2120 01:39:52,240 --> 01:39:55,320 Speaker 3: I just I'm just so jealous of you, Greg. Everything 2121 01:39:55,360 --> 01:39:56,920 Speaker 3: you touch turns the gold this season. 2122 01:39:57,600 --> 01:40:00,000 Speaker 2: Stop. I mean, damn, that's a record with a pick 2123 01:40:00,160 --> 01:40:00,519 Speaker 2: this year. 2124 01:40:01,400 --> 01:40:03,880 Speaker 1: Well that was a lock. That is eleven and one. 2125 01:40:04,000 --> 01:40:06,960 Speaker 4: As I've said, luck is luck is the most important, 2126 01:40:07,320 --> 01:40:08,680 Speaker 4: you know ingredient to all this. 2127 01:40:08,680 --> 01:40:11,080 Speaker 3: This one was, especially on the Rainmaker side of things, 2128 01:40:11,120 --> 01:40:13,720 Speaker 3: really yes, you know, everything is kind of clicking in 2129 01:40:14,040 --> 01:40:15,880 Speaker 3: on Rosenveal Boulevard this season. 2130 01:40:16,120 --> 01:40:19,240 Speaker 4: Well, when they got the stop on Herber and you 2131 01:40:19,240 --> 01:40:21,519 Speaker 4: know when when the charters are going, I'm feeling so 2132 01:40:21,560 --> 01:40:23,799 Speaker 4: many emotions here because yes, I want all the children, 2133 01:40:23,920 --> 01:40:27,800 Speaker 4: especially overseas, you know, our Scottish listeners all the Yeah, 2134 01:40:27,800 --> 01:40:30,160 Speaker 4: I want them and their kids to the Scottish listeners 2135 01:40:30,160 --> 01:40:32,479 Speaker 4: have to do with this. Well, they're just they're they're big. 2136 01:40:32,640 --> 01:40:35,000 Speaker 4: They love they love Saint Nick, they love the Rainmaker. 2137 01:40:35,120 --> 01:40:39,760 Speaker 4: I don't know, I uh, I was thinking, you know, 2138 01:40:40,000 --> 01:40:41,720 Speaker 4: I'm torn because I kind of want to see a 2139 01:40:41,760 --> 01:40:43,519 Speaker 4: good game. I want to see Justin Herbert, one of 2140 01:40:43,600 --> 01:40:45,600 Speaker 4: my favorite players in the league, go down and not 2141 01:40:45,720 --> 01:40:48,400 Speaker 4: have one of these games where he gets the ball 2142 01:40:48,439 --> 01:40:50,639 Speaker 4: again at the end of the game and they can't score. 2143 01:40:50,640 --> 01:40:53,120 Speaker 4: It ends up happening, you know, twice in this game essentially, 2144 01:40:53,880 --> 01:40:56,280 Speaker 4: But when the Ravens got it back, you know, I 2145 01:40:56,680 --> 01:40:59,040 Speaker 4: was thinking, if they stop them three times in a row, 2146 01:40:59,280 --> 01:41:03,480 Speaker 4: Tucker gets a chance at redemption there, but instead Flowers 2147 01:41:04,040 --> 01:41:06,200 Speaker 4: pops the big one. And that's why no one should 2148 01:41:06,240 --> 01:41:09,040 Speaker 4: ever actually do this. And I was mad, by the 2149 01:41:09,080 --> 01:41:13,400 Speaker 4: way at John Harbaugh and I know it's a kind 2150 01:41:13,400 --> 01:41:15,800 Speaker 4: of analytics guy way to think about it, but I 2151 01:41:15,960 --> 01:41:18,360 Speaker 4: hated that field goal attempt go for it on fourth 2152 01:41:18,400 --> 01:41:20,840 Speaker 4: and too. I hated their play calling tonight. They just 2153 01:41:20,880 --> 01:41:23,040 Speaker 4: refuse to run the ball like they were running the 2154 01:41:23,040 --> 01:41:25,280 Speaker 4: ball great. And it is the one thing I believe 2155 01:41:25,320 --> 01:41:27,439 Speaker 4: in this Ravens team. I love the way Clowney and 2156 01:41:27,439 --> 01:41:29,000 Speaker 4: always playing. I love the way they run the ball, 2157 01:41:29,240 --> 01:41:33,519 Speaker 4: but their passing attack is erratic, and they're gonna need 2158 01:41:33,560 --> 01:41:36,400 Speaker 4: them their receivers in Lamar to win some games and 2159 01:41:36,680 --> 01:41:38,280 Speaker 4: you just don't know which one's gonna show up. And 2160 01:41:38,280 --> 01:41:39,880 Speaker 4: tonight they could have just won that game if they 2161 01:41:39,920 --> 01:41:42,960 Speaker 4: just ran the ball more frequently, and if they had 2162 01:41:42,960 --> 01:41:44,960 Speaker 4: gone for that fourth and too to just just try 2163 01:41:45,000 --> 01:41:47,639 Speaker 4: to put the way ball game away there, that's fine. 2164 01:41:47,680 --> 01:41:52,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, Keith Mitchell deserves more touches than he's got. He 2165 01:41:52,080 --> 01:41:53,559 Speaker 3: got nine in this game and he turned it into 2166 01:41:53,640 --> 01:41:56,439 Speaker 3: sixty four yards. I just think every time he touches 2167 01:41:56,479 --> 01:41:59,439 Speaker 3: the ball he makes their offense better. And you are 2168 01:41:59,560 --> 01:42:01,960 Speaker 3: right about to Damian Clowney. I mean, he looked five 2169 01:42:02,040 --> 01:42:05,360 Speaker 3: years younger, and I know it probably annoys Browns fans 2170 01:42:06,120 --> 01:42:09,479 Speaker 3: because of him. He didn't live up to the promise 2171 01:42:09,520 --> 01:42:11,439 Speaker 3: of a number one overall pick, and then last year 2172 01:42:11,479 --> 01:42:14,160 Speaker 3: he essentially quit on that team, and now he's in 2173 01:42:14,360 --> 01:42:17,439 Speaker 3: hated Baltimore and playing at a high level he had. 2174 01:42:17,439 --> 01:42:20,640 Speaker 3: That's like the holy trinity for a defensive player when 2175 01:42:20,680 --> 01:42:22,560 Speaker 3: you can get the sack, the force, fumble and the 2176 01:42:22,600 --> 01:42:28,080 Speaker 3: fumble recovery on Herbert. So Clowney has been almost predictably 2177 01:42:28,640 --> 01:42:31,040 Speaker 3: the best version of himself once he got to Baltimore. 2178 01:42:31,400 --> 01:42:33,800 Speaker 4: Well, they take other people's players and they make them better, 2179 01:42:33,920 --> 01:42:38,120 Speaker 4: like pat Rokwan. Smith is just outrageous how good he's playing. 2180 01:42:38,120 --> 01:42:40,839 Speaker 4: You get Clowney, van Noy's making plays. I mean Hamilton 2181 01:42:40,920 --> 01:42:43,800 Speaker 4: that that was their own pick. But when he made 2182 01:42:43,840 --> 01:42:46,000 Speaker 4: a big play early in the game, I think it 2183 01:42:46,040 --> 01:42:48,479 Speaker 4: was on Eckler and then did the the too small 2184 01:42:48,560 --> 01:42:52,400 Speaker 4: celebration Dan, which you know felt personal to Eckler, you know, 2185 01:42:52,520 --> 01:42:54,120 Speaker 4: not the not the tallest guy. 2186 01:42:54,200 --> 01:42:57,080 Speaker 3: It's been a tough year for Austin Eckler. That's seven 2187 01:42:57,120 --> 01:42:59,360 Speaker 3: and a half sacks for Clowney. I've been tracking very 2188 01:42:59,360 --> 01:43:02,120 Speaker 3: closely for over a decade. Will you ever get to ten? 2189 01:43:02,320 --> 01:43:05,040 Speaker 3: Maybe this year this could be it. 2190 01:43:06,120 --> 01:43:07,920 Speaker 4: Might you might get a Super Bowl ring here, this 2191 01:43:08,000 --> 01:43:10,840 Speaker 4: team is nine and three. It's it's why I when 2192 01:43:10,840 --> 01:43:12,760 Speaker 4: you ask me who's the one seed, you know is 2193 01:43:12,800 --> 01:43:15,600 Speaker 4: the Jaguars early in the day, and then there was 2194 01:43:15,680 --> 01:43:18,439 Speaker 4: the Chiefs at midday. And as I was saying, I 2195 01:43:18,479 --> 01:43:20,000 Speaker 4: was like, is this going to be dated? Well, no, 2196 01:43:20,120 --> 01:43:22,400 Speaker 4: because you listened all the way to the end and 2197 01:43:22,439 --> 01:43:24,120 Speaker 4: now the Ravens are the one seed. 2198 01:43:23,920 --> 01:43:28,439 Speaker 3: In the It changed hands three times today four yeah. 2199 01:43:28,280 --> 01:43:31,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, because the Dolphins had I think it started with 2200 01:43:31,720 --> 01:43:34,559 Speaker 4: the Dolphins went to the Jags, went to the Chiefs. 2201 01:43:34,600 --> 01:43:35,400 Speaker 1: Now it's the Ravens. 2202 01:43:36,120 --> 01:43:38,360 Speaker 3: One last thing I missed it before, but I wanted 2203 01:43:38,400 --> 01:43:44,800 Speaker 3: to let you know in the Cadence rankings, I know 2204 01:43:44,840 --> 01:43:46,760 Speaker 3: you're your top ten at the end of the year. 2205 01:43:47,720 --> 01:43:51,000 Speaker 3: I want you to keep your eye on Titans quarterback 2206 01:43:51,000 --> 01:43:59,680 Speaker 3: Will Levis, who has a throaty, aggressive, masculine Cadence call 2207 01:44:00,160 --> 01:44:06,040 Speaker 3: and it's something that warrants close eye as his career 2208 01:44:06,080 --> 01:44:07,480 Speaker 3: continues to unfold. 2209 01:44:07,720 --> 01:44:08,559 Speaker 1: Looking forward to it. 2210 01:44:08,640 --> 01:44:10,400 Speaker 4: That's why we got to finish this so I can 2211 01:44:10,800 --> 01:44:12,919 Speaker 4: dive into that tape. What what a what a transition 2212 01:44:13,000 --> 01:44:16,320 Speaker 4: that's like the rot the farm to rogers of Cadences. 2213 01:44:16,360 --> 01:44:18,719 Speaker 4: Because Tannehill is one of the one of the greats 2214 01:44:18,720 --> 01:44:19,519 Speaker 4: of his generation. 2215 01:44:19,840 --> 01:44:22,559 Speaker 2: YEP, I don't think it's a coincidence. All right, that's it. 2216 01:44:23,400 --> 01:44:27,840 Speaker 3: We're assuming Mark will get back to his home by 2217 01:44:28,120 --> 01:44:28,679 Speaker 3: Ian Mark. 2218 01:44:28,720 --> 01:44:31,120 Speaker 4: I feel for you, buddy, because I don't not that 2219 01:44:31,160 --> 01:44:32,960 Speaker 4: he's going to listen to this, but I know how 2220 01:44:32,960 --> 01:44:35,479 Speaker 4: frustrated he probably is sitting in that traffic. 2221 01:44:35,680 --> 01:44:38,400 Speaker 3: I got curiously, I got a lot of like panicked, 2222 01:44:38,439 --> 01:44:40,880 Speaker 3: angry texts about it, but it wasn't the three of us. 2223 01:44:40,920 --> 01:44:43,320 Speaker 2: So maybe he's he's afraid of you.
