1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:06,800 Speaker 1: They around the NFL podcast He's done locking up the. 2 00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:10,680 Speaker 2: Charger from the Chris Wesling podcast studio. 3 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:12,000 Speaker 3: It's around the NFL. 4 00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:15,400 Speaker 2: My name is Dan hansis got heroes here, Greg Rosenthal 5 00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:18,760 Speaker 2: and Mark Sessler. Yeah, I would say in our locks 6 00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:23,120 Speaker 2: competition that locking up the Chargers is just asking for trouble. 7 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:25,680 Speaker 2: Whether you're a fan or enjoy their brand of football, 8 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:28,000 Speaker 2: it's not. It's not predictable on any. 9 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:32,519 Speaker 4: Level, right, But you know, I appreciate what Jason's attempting 10 00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:35,920 Speaker 4: to do there Jason Zumwelt, But like the actual facts 11 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 4: are that I promised to never lock them again this season. 12 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,479 Speaker 3: If Greg I would have, I would happily do it. 13 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:44,200 Speaker 5: I'll be curious see if anyone dares lock against them 14 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,599 Speaker 5: this week. I feel like that's that's the most Uh, 15 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 5: that's the biggest point spread you could lock. 16 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:52,159 Speaker 3: So we'll see interesting pick against just. 17 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 2: Maybe when he's playing Patrick Mahomes they would, but it's 18 00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 2: been a tough matchup for him. Yes, this is a 19 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 2: I don't know if another week will tie it. Perhaps 20 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 2: I'm not sure. I don't remember how it works, but 21 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 2: there won't be another week that has more teams unbuy 22 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 2: than a Week seven. Cincinnati, Dallas, Tennessee Jets, Carolina, Houston 23 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 2: all off this week, so we have a fewer games 24 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:17,679 Speaker 2: to get to. 25 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 3: I want to just throw a couple things out there. 26 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 2: First of all, injuries, you're kind of going through the game, 27 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 2: you're thinking about what's going on. 28 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 3: In the league right now. 29 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 2: Injuries feel like and I know injuries are always a 30 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 2: big part of our league, but I counted up eight teams, 31 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 2: that's a quarter of the league have a major injury 32 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 2: issue at the quarterback position. 33 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 3: Which it's early for that. 34 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 2: There's nothing worse than dealing with an injury at the 35 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 2: quarterback position. It can kind of take down a whole operation. 36 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 2: In some cases it has. There are also as we 37 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 2: enter Week seven boys, fifteen teams. Was my eldest son, 38 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 2: Jack hopped into bed with me this morning and I 39 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 2: was looking at the standings and I was just going 40 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 2: through it all with him, and then he want to 41 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 2: see like everything. 42 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 3: So, oh, you could do that. The Deeper Metrics itemized it. 43 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 2: I guess you could call it that, and then it 44 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 2: was the entire league one through thirty two, and then 45 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 2: it caught my eye. There are fifteen teams, nearly half 46 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 2: the league that are either three and two, three and 47 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 2: three or two and three, So parody is as strong 48 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 2: as ever. Things are wide open, and you throw in 49 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 2: the injuries to the all over the league, including out 50 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:24,919 Speaker 2: the quarterback position, it's a wide open season. 51 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 4: Well, it's exactly what the NFL wants the mission accomplished 52 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 4: on the battle. 53 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 3: Yes, I guess it's what we want. I don't know. 54 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 4: I would say last year the one thing, but because 55 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 4: I always feel like, oh, there's way more injuries this year, 56 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 4: and then you if you dig down, it's like one 57 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 4: percent more. But like last year, and you did this 58 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 4: with QB Index with the end you have to rank 59 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 4: every quarterback that appeared in a game, and they were 60 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 4: like forty eight of them. So it's like, I think 61 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 4: we're on pace to hit that again. Basically we're gonna 62 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 4: we're gonna have more. 63 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, whether the data backs up that there are more 64 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,679 Speaker 2: injuries this year, I don't know, it doesn't really matter. 65 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 2: It's more just like it's just a reminder of how 66 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 2: that is such a major factor in these seasons. 67 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 3: You could go into a season feeling good about your. 68 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 2: Roster, but it is the depth of your roster that 69 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 2: really ultimately at least. 70 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 4: It's also the week where I mean, and I've been 71 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 4: barely tracking the fantasy league. I mean then, but there's 72 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 4: a lot of squawking about, like a bunch of teams 73 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 4: on buys and a bunch of injuries already, You've got 74 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 4: like Joe Fabeats starting at running back at. 75 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 2: This I'm gonna this is my favorite week of the year, 76 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 2: by the way, So we got my my favorite team 77 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 2: on buy. 78 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm having a totally lost fantasy year. 79 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 2: I'm already out of contention essentially, which thinks, but also 80 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 2: there's a freedom to that. There is, So I got 81 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,119 Speaker 2: there no jets to worry about. I got no fantasy 82 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 2: like thing to like obsess over.

No, there are. 108 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,159 Speaker 4: More, you know what with there, I might be the 109 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 4: only one with triple G, only one on the planet. 110 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 4: I would guarantee you that's not the case. 111 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 3: I don't know. 112 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 4: I've googled, I don't know. It's possible. 113 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 3: There's not another Dan Hansis. I can tell you that there. 114 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 4: Is a Mark Cecil with a sn and I think 115 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 4: he's like a chef on the East Coast. 116 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 3: Kill him. Yeah, he's got to go, he must go. 117 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 5: I'm taking Lions Ravens. Let's you know, remove Donner dram 118 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 5: out here. 119 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:07,919 Speaker 3: What a game. 120 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 5: I mean, we already talked one of the games of 121 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 5: the year's Dolphins Eagles. But there's two games this week, Dan, 122 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 5: involving two teams ranked in the top seven DVOA on 123 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 5: the season, and that's your number two Detroit Lions right 124 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 5: now and your number four Baltimore Ravens. So that's a 125 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,039 Speaker 5: little numerical support to the feeling that I've had that 126 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 5: this Ravens team is better than the dumb mistakes that 127 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 5: they made. That underlying foundation in terms of how tough 128 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 5: they are on both sides of the ball, how much 129 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 5: they move the ball, and how well they've done preventing 130 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 5: other teams to move the ball is the profile of 131 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 5: a really good team. And it's to show me something 132 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,599 Speaker 5: game for both teams, kind of like who's tougher? 133 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 3: That's how I start. 134 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 5: Both of these teams have been able to run the 135 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 5: ball at various points, but not all the time, and 136 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 5: I think they both really want to. 137 00:05:58,279 --> 00:05:59,679 Speaker 3: So who's going to be tougher? Upfront? 138 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,359 Speaker 4: I love the idea of like Rokwan Smith, who is 139 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 4: a big friend of our show, for various reasons dating 140 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 4: back to last season and Patrick Queen end of the show. 141 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 5: I mean, he was the subject of a much debated 142 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 5: emergency podcast. 143 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 4: Yeh, but he's been like that trade, which you know, 144 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 4: like the Bears gave up, gave. 145 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 3: Up on him, like the superstar. 146 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 4: He's been great for them and I think he's made 147 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 4: Patrick Queen better and and their defense are. 148 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,679 Speaker 3: Good a lot, a little bit of a flash playing focus. 149 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,919 Speaker 4: I know in the end the emergency podcast looks like 150 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 4: he should be in the Defensive Player of the Year. Yeah, 151 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 4: it was. It was pressing, and like they've they've been 152 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 4: good versus the past as well, and it's like, I 153 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 4: I like this Lion's passing game. I feel like there's 154 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 4: been these periods with Jared Goff where it's like, Okay, 155 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 4: he fits in the offense, but it's not because of 156 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 4: Jared Goff. And it's like Jared Goff's making some plays 157 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 4: because he's got some talent around him. 158 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 3: And then they got a great offensive lines. 159 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 4: So now I'm like Jared Goff is like actually on 160 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 4: a week two week basis. 161 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,040 Speaker 3: Playing the best football of his entire career and. 162 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 4: Feels like he's PFF's number one quarterback, very similar to 163 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 4: twenty eighteen at this point in the season, when he 164 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 4: was a legit MVP candidate. 165 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,599 Speaker 2: We all owe Jared goffin apology because I can't remember 166 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 2: another player that reached the heights that he did in 167 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 2: Los Angeles that was ever written off or thought of 168 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 2: more as an afterthought. 169 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 3: Go check the tape of this podcast. 170 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 2: Maybe one of us was into it, but it all 171 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 2: seemed like that's Stafford trade. He was the guy that 172 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 2: went back to make the money work. He was the 173 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 2: guy that would simply serve as the bridge till the Lions, 174 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 2: you know, hit the reboot the quarterback position, and instead 175 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 2: he's become a real obvious difference maker. Now does that 176 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 2: mean that he can't be flummis that he can't fail 177 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 2: in a big spot if you cook him up and 178 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 2: put him in a comfortable spot. Of course, that can happen. 179 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 2: It just hasn't really happened very often in Detroit. 180 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 5: And this is one week where it could. Because I'm 181 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 5: really impressed with Mike McDonald. I give John Harbaugh a 182 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 5: lot of credit for this hire that he made to 183 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 5: replay McDonald, Don Wink, Martindale. Harbor has been really good 184 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 5: at hires in general. I would say that's one of 185 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 5: his strengths as a coach. And if anyone can make 186 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 5: Jared Goff hold the ball a little longer and can 187 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 5: cook him up with some pressures, I think it's Mike 188 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 5: McDonald in this Ravens defense. Now, they do have some injuries. 189 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 5: Marcus Williams we saw go right past us in London 190 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 5: with that hamstring injury. I don't think he's gonna play 191 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 5: in this game. They don't have a great pass rush, 192 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 5: which is surprising for such a good defense, but they 193 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 5: do like to cook you up a little bit with 194 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 5: their pressure. 195 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 3: I think they use like their secondary and their pressure 196 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 3: a lot too. 197 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 4: They have eleven different players with a sack that's no team, 198 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 4: No team can touch that. I you know, I think 199 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 4: though with Detroit with no David Montgomery, Jamiir Gibbs is 200 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,079 Speaker 4: still banged up. It sounds like he could potentially play, 201 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 4: but even like Craig Reynolds, their number three guy, it 202 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 4: didn't practice on Wednesday. 203 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 3: We'll see about I. 204 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 5: Think it's a Jamiir Gibbs game. I think they're gonna 205 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 5: need some time for that. 206 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know what, let's have a big Jamiir 207 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 2: Gibbs game because they drafted him to be an immediate 208 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 2: impact player and let's see if he's healthy enough to 209 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 2: do so. 210 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 3: Yeah. 211 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 2: Almost talked about the top of the show. A lot 212 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 2: of quarterback injuries. Almost every team we're going to talk 213 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 2: about has a position group that's kind of under siege. 214 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 2: For the Lions, it is that running back room with injuries. 215 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 2: That's that is a good game, Greg, It's a great game. 216 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:11,079 Speaker 5: They're three point favorites, by the way, the Baltimore Ravens 217 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 5: in this game, and they need. 218 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 2: That feels that seems like a little overly respectful, but. 219 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 5: It's basically saying two even ish teams. I think that's 220 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 5: that's right. But you Baltimore feels like, let's pick it. Yeah, 221 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:23,319 Speaker 5: let's pick it. 222 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 3: I like the Lions. I'm taking Baltimore. 223 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I like Detroit. I think Ravens and we were 224 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 2: we saw it up close in London. They're red zone 225 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 2: issues that jump out to me. And I think the 226 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 2: Lions are going to continue to move the ball and 227 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 2: put up points. Are the Ravens or the Ravens able 228 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 2: to do that and match them? If this game starts 229 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 2: turning into maybe not a shootout, but gets into the twenties. 230 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 4: I came really close to locking the Lions. I think 231 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 4: that this is the reason all this game is. I 232 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:52,319 Speaker 4: don't remember a time in my life when Detroit Baltimore 233 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 4: was something that was a source of intrigue for me, 234 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 4: and it's completely that. 235 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:58,599 Speaker 5: It's very intriguing. I don't want to beat a you know, 236 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 5: the same drum every week. But man, we just need 237 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 5: Bateman in Beckham to make plays for them, because I 238 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 5: think that's where the mismatch could be. Detroit's been sneaky, 239 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:08,719 Speaker 5: very banged up in their secondary and they should be 240 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 5: able to win some of those one on ones on 241 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 5: the outside, but they haven't. 242 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: That was the game of the Week presented by Draft 243 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: King sports Book.

This is an easy one. 250 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,079 Speaker 2: I believe this could have easily been the first overall pick. 251 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:36,559 Speaker 2: The Los Angeles Chargers traveling to Arrowhead to face the 252 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:40,319 Speaker 2: Kansas City Chiefs. Chiefs are laying five and a half 253 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 2: points here. By the way, the over under that Lion's 254 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 2: Ravens game forty three. That feels alright to me forty 255 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 2: three here it's forty eight. And we talked about it 256 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 2: on the show Wednesday. Mikole Hardman joins the Chiefs or 257 00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:00,319 Speaker 2: rejoins the Chiefs in a trade from the Jets. You 258 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 2: assume this is a guy that is going to be 259 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 2: able to join the fray and be a part of 260 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 2: this offense rather quickly. And while he is not a 261 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 2: difference maker, he was a real piece of that team 262 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 2: when he was there, and they need somebody. I think 263 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 2: that's the thing that's gonna jump out to me here, 264 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 2: and we can get into the Charger side of it, 265 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 2: and how much Herbert struggled on Monday night and the 266 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 2: disappointment of that game. But the Chiefs, for me, one 267 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:26,680 Speaker 2: of the biggest stories in the league is in the 268 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:28,839 Speaker 2: second half of the regular season, because Kansas City is 269 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,680 Speaker 2: gonna be alright, They're going to go thirteen and four, 270 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 2: twelve and five or fourteen and three, and they're gonna 271 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 2: be there. But are they going to be able to 272 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 2: identify either on the roster now or at the trade deadline, 273 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 2: that missing piece on their offense, and in a game 274 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 2: with against an elite passer like Herbert, will they be 275 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 2: able to get into. 276 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 3: A shootout and win if it comes to that. 277 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,839 Speaker 5: I think they're not ready for that now. But I 278 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 5: think this is a perfect test because we've just seen 279 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 5: this matchup so many times in the Brank's Daily era, 280 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 5: and so we know what a Chief's offense looks like 281 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 5: against this Chargers defense. And I know the Chargers defense 282 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 5: came out of the by with a relatively promising performance 283 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 5: against Dallas, couldn't get the stops when they really needed it, 284 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 5: and you took a fourth down stop early in the 285 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 5: game that took some points off the board. And I 286 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,320 Speaker 5: hesitate to say that, like, ooh, the Chargers defense is 287 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 5: really making some big improvements. The old Chargers Chiefs offense 288 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 5: rather Dan like, would get thirty two points in this 289 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 5: matchup every single time, every single time. And so if 290 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 5: they are stuck in a low scoring game, and I 291 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 5: kind of expect they will be, then we know it's 292 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 5: absolutely different. They're gonna have to start taking some guys 293 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 5: out of the lineup, whether it's Val the Scantling or 294 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 5: sky Moore. 295 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 3: Someone's got to get taken out. Yeah, I don't. 296 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 4: I think Dan yesterday thought, well, Michael Hardman, fine, but 297 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 4: like you kind of would want the Chiefs to go 298 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:56,319 Speaker 4: source and find someone a little bit more juicy, and 299 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 4: they didn't do that. 300 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 3: I don't. The trade to me feels but they do. 301 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 3: But that this is not going to solve their problems. 302 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 3: I'm four. 303 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,559 Speaker 4: This is their defense. I mean, that's like the Chiefs defense, 304 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 4: which is, you know, second fewest yards per game, and 305 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 4: like there's just consistency. They've had the same coaching staff 306 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 4: there for so long, and like they've got nine they've 307 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 4: been given nine days rest off to that kind of 308 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 4: wacky game against the Broncos, right, I kind of felt 309 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 4: like the Chiefs were just sort of screwing around during 310 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 4: part of that game, just sort of throwing things at 311 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 4: the no. 312 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 5: I think they were, I hear what you're saying. They 313 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 5: throw a lot of trick plays and all that stuff. 314 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,080 Speaker 5: But it's kind of like because their normal stuff doesn't work. 315 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 3: Well, they are working through that. 316 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,439 Speaker 4: But it's like, I think their defense is one of 317 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,959 Speaker 4: the reasons they're allowed to do that without getting caught 318 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 4: into tight losses. 319 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 5: You mentioned the rest tough break here for the Chargers. 320 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 5: I mean, this is a legitimate gripe that the Chiefs 321 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 5: get five extra days rest. 322 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 3: In the in the biggest road division games, in these. 323 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 2: Two teams especially right, Yeah, there are some insane stat 324 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 2: about that that. 325 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 3: Let's see. Let me see if I can find it. 326 00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:58,680 Speaker 3: It is. 327 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 2: Andy Reid with four plus days of rest advantage as 328 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 2: head coach in his career twenty seven and three. 329 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 4: That just makes me like, imagine him like taking long, 330 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 4: comfortable naps. 331 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 2: And some of this is he's had great head coach 332 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 2: and has had great teams, but plus thirty three turnover 333 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 2: differential average final score essentially twenty six to sixteen. And yeah, 334 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 2: so LA's against it a little bit right now, Greg, 335 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 2: What did you take from the Herbert performance on Monday night? 336 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 5: I thought people got a little carried away wanting to 337 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 5: like show hey for once, it was justin Herbert's fault. 338 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 5: I thought he played a pretty good three quarters. Certainly 339 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 5: didn't end that game well really, I thought he missed 340 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 5: a lot of threat. He missed plenty of throws, but 341 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 5: he made plenty of throws too. 342 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 3: I don't know like. 343 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 5: Why the glove, on the offhand would make that big 344 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 5: of a difference inaccuracy. I'm not smart enough to know that, 345 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 5: so I don't really that doesn't make sense to me 346 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 5: as the reason why. 347 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 3: Who's saying that? Well, just like that. 348 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 5: That his performance was so odd off accuracy wise, and 349 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 5: for the first time, he's playing with this broken finger 350 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 5: and he's wearing a glove, which he he absolutely never does. 351 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 5: It doesn't seem like that's the reason why, because he 352 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 5: also made a lot of really good throws in that game. 353 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 5: The thing that is Herbert's superpower, though, I think makes 354 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 5: them look worse in games like that, which is like 355 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 5: he refuses to take a sack. So in a game 356 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 5: where he was heated up, he was pressured on almost 357 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 5: fifty percent of his passes. That's the most in any 358 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 5: Chargers game this year. It's like that would lead the 359 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 5: league by far if that was consistent. You know, getting 360 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 5: pressured that much, he just gets rid of the ball 361 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 5: and so he's having to make quick decisions. He refuses 362 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 5: to take a sack, and it led to a lot 363 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 5: of bad throws, but they were also as you mentioned, 364 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 5: just like four or five throws he missed. 365 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:40,119 Speaker 3: Ones that usually. 366 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 2: So that was I would imagine he was very frustrated 367 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 2: with his performance there. 368 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 5: I give this Chiefs linebacker group a lot of credit. 369 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 3: I really like them. 370 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 5: Nick Bolton, Drew Tranquil when he's out there, Willie Gate like, 371 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 5: I think that's been a little bit of their secret sauce. 372 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 5: They're pretty good at every level of their defense. You 373 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 5: mentioned the stats like they were legit top ten defense. 374 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 5: So this is a different Chiefs defense than the charge. 375 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 3: Those guys have been. They generate big takeaway right, Bolton 376 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 3: and Tranquiled, it's like God passing downs. I really liked them. 377 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 2: The other guy that's jumped out to me with the 378 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 2: Chiefs again, that's the offense. 379 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 3: And I'm really interested in here. 380 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 2: Is Isaiah Pachenko. 381 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 3: That's a tough name for me. 382 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 2: Check he's been good and sat it right. He has 383 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 2: not been He has not been the problem for them. 384 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 2: But again they need that. They need somebody else and 385 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 2: maybe you we'll see something this week. Khalil Mack, by 386 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 2: the way, has seven sacks this year. Really good. 387 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, I mean one. 388 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 4: I went down that road with Shaq Barrett though that 389 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 4: one time, and I got, you know, totally fried with 390 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 4: my instant analysis on that situation. 391 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 3: Your analysis being that he will that good? 392 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 4: Well, it was that all whenever you get these guys 393 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 4: that have this game where like suddenly you play at 394 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 4: a different, like human level, and then you I typically 395 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 4: think you end up like three sacks. 396 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 5: You thought he would be a bad free agent signing. No, 397 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 5: I believe it was your thing. And then he was 398 00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 5: kind of the key to a Super Bowl champion. 399 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 4: That's tilting the accuracy completely. 400 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 3: I believe he was seen as a key difference maker. 401 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 3: I just don't buy these. It's these one game explosions. 402 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:12,360 Speaker 3: You brought it up. That's fair. Why did I do that? 403 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 3: All Right? The third overall pick goes to Mark and alright, yeah, 404 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 3: that's easy for me. 405 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 4: I probably would have taken this at number two and 406 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,440 Speaker 4: been like verbally fried by the group. But I'm gonna 407 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 4: go Browns at cults what I think it's a fair coming. 408 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:31,360 Speaker 4: I'll start here. 409 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,640 Speaker 2: Hey, nobody is nobody's gonna fry you, huh for taking 410 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 2: the Browns. 411 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:37,919 Speaker 3: This is good. Number three? Now, Mark, this is a 412 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,159 Speaker 3: safe Oh yeah, it's great. No one's gonna judge you. 413 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,159 Speaker 5: Well, you know what, but your favorite quarterback plays for 414 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 5: the other team though, you know, back in the day 415 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,120 Speaker 5: he was your I did have Ashew thing. 416 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 3: But Minshew. 417 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,359 Speaker 4: You know, if they get the version of Gardner Minshew 418 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:52,399 Speaker 4: they got last week, which was what three picks in 419 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 4: a strip sack and Cleveland is not actually for out 420 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 4: good their defense has been. They have not been generating takeaways. 421 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:00,440 Speaker 4: I think they have four on the year, which is 422 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 4: a little surprising for how. 423 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 3: Good they've been. 424 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 4: But Mint that version of Minshew, It's like, I feel 425 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 4: like Minshew can like he'll give you two or three 426 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,360 Speaker 4: games where he's a little spicy, then the floor falls out. 427 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 3: I don't remember ever seeing him that bad. 428 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,879 Speaker 4: No, he looked awful, and that was the Jaguars defense 429 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 4: being better than we've expected them to be. 430 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,479 Speaker 3: Him. He made a lot of bad decisions, yeah, and 431 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 3: just terrible. 432 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:23,639 Speaker 5: It's almost like he was like, I'm gonna show the 433 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 5: Jaguars what they're missing out and then he just oh. 434 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:27,360 Speaker 3: They're happy. 435 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 4: They seem happy to have moved on to a different 436 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 4: quarterback of potential Hall of Famer down the road. I 437 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 4: love this game for Cleveland as long as they get 438 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 4: it depends. I think for me, what happens a quarterback, 439 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 4: there's been some I think just the whole of Shawn 440 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,399 Speaker 4: Watson's situation, it's been really weird. Well is it the 441 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 4: Mark Mark Cooper news? No, okay, good, but that maybe 442 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 4: co Mary Cooper said he will He's going to practice today. 443 00:18:49,280 --> 00:19:00,400 Speaker 2: So the Shawn Watson UH currently dealing with of a 444 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 2: mystery injury later now revealed as a micro tear of 445 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 2: the rotator cuff, and rap Sheet reported in the past 446 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 2: hour that Watson is practicing today Thursday, for the first 447 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:16,719 Speaker 2: time in a while. Per oc Alex Van Help, confirming 448 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 2: a report from Amari Cooper. 449 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, Mark Cooper, like, I kind of appreciate a player coming. 450 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 4: Is it a teammates, don't know, he's just giving us 451 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 4: information like first and information about his teammate. 452 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,919 Speaker 3: Ahh, I got a big scoop. Yeah, gets shipped right 453 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,199 Speaker 3: into an immediate career. You know. 454 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,439 Speaker 4: For me, it's like they this is a still a 455 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:37,880 Speaker 4: Browns offense that I think is quite suspicious. Uh, they 456 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 4: you don't have Nick Chubb. Jerome Ford helped out a 457 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 4: little bit. 458 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:42,400 Speaker 3: Last week. They survived with PJ. 459 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,399 Speaker 4: Walker playing a really bad game at quarterback. Not a 460 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,680 Speaker 4: bad spot if to Sean Watson plays, He's not doesn't 461 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:49,640 Speaker 4: sound healthy to me. But if he plays, like, how 462 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,200 Speaker 4: about show up for once? Show up for once, because 463 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 4: I think the defense can absolutely just take care of it. 464 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 3: A Colts offense that like with Jonathan Taylor, like he 465 00:19:58,520 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 3: needs to show up at some point. 466 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 5: Well, Watson had his best game I think as a 467 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 5: Brown on the game. He got hurt, so can he 468 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,920 Speaker 5: keep that going. It's against the Colts defense. We mentioned 469 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 5: on Wednesday, Grover Stewart's now out for six games. To me, 470 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 5: that was the one thing that had a chance to 471 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 5: make this defense special. It's definitely not special otherwise, but 472 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 5: they had a couple good defensive tackles. It's just hard 473 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:24,119 Speaker 5: to imagine this Gardner Minshew offense going up against the 474 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 5: best defense in the league. The way that the Jags 475 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 5: played the Colts last week was straight up disrespectful. It 476 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:35,280 Speaker 5: was crazy. It didn't matter what formation the Colts did. 477 00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:38,399 Speaker 5: I think it was it Derek Klassen on Twitter put this, 478 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 5: put this out there that you could they were putting 479 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 5: out four wide receivers and it didn't matter, like the 480 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 5: Jaguars were just staying in there. Maybe it was Nate 481 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,879 Speaker 5: Tice in their base formation and basically saying we're not 482 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 5: gonna let you run the ball no matter what we 483 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:54,120 Speaker 5: will you can put howmever many receivers are out there, 484 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 5: and we'll just leave our cornerbacks on an island. This 485 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 5: is Jacksonville. I mean their cornerbacks. It's not the Browns 486 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 5: by any means. It's like, well, we'll give you one 487 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 5: on ones everywhere, but no matter what, we're not gonna 488 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,400 Speaker 5: let you run. And we don't think your wide receivers 489 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,439 Speaker 5: can beat us, and we don't think Gardner Minshew can 490 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,639 Speaker 5: beat us. And you know what, they were absolutely right, 491 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 5: and so like, why wouldn't the Browns play that way? 492 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 5: Why wouldn't every team play that way? Because Michael Pittman's 493 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:19,879 Speaker 5: the only guy that you really worry about, and you 494 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 5: don't worry about Gardner Minshew being special making special throws. 495 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,359 Speaker 5: And by the way, like the Browns lock you down 496 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:27,360 Speaker 5: on the outside better than any. 497 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:28,880 Speaker 3: Team in the league. It is a tough match. 498 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 4: I have a stat that Greg will absolutely not care about. 499 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 3: Okay, let's hear it. We know where how Greg Greg 500 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 3: is in this world. I'm in your head, on my head. 501 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 3: It's just the first thing that came to my mind 502 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 3: when I read this right. 503 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 2: When people think back to past conversations, that doesn't mean 504 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 2: that you live in their head. 505 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:49,679 Speaker 4: It is sumptuous exactly living in your head you are not, 506 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 4: first of all. 507 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 3: That's that's what they always say. Right now, So it 508 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:55,440 Speaker 3: makes me feel better, just I know. It's fine. 509 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,160 Speaker 4: Fewest yards allowed through five games in a season by 510 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 4: a team since the nineteen seventy one Cults, that is 511 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 4: the Browns. I mean, I threw that out there on 512 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:07,360 Speaker 4: Sunday night the last time. But remember when I was saying, 513 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 4: I thought this, like the nineteen ninety four Bill Belichick defense, 514 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 4: it's better than that so far. The last time they 515 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 4: finished with the number one total defense, the Browns nineteen 516 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,639 Speaker 4: fifty five. There have been a lot of years of 517 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,359 Speaker 4: bad defense, and it's like, I think the Niners game 518 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 4: last week was not all Cleveland's defense entirely. There was 519 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 4: some weather involved and some other stuff. But like when 520 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 4: they put it on teams like they really do it. 521 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 4: And so I'm gonna know because I'm telling you why 522 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 4: I'm saying that, because I'm taking the Cleveland Browns, I 523 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,200 Speaker 4: think for the first time in a really long time, 524 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 4: and I'm locking them up against the cults on the road. 525 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 4: They're giving up two point five points, two and a 526 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 4: half points. 527 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 2: Very nerve wracking for me and Rosenthal. Why locking up 528 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 2: the Brownies. You haven't done it a lot. 529 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 4: I didn't see a lot of good luck opportunities. 530 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,200 Speaker 5: We get dark Sessler if they blow it against the 531 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 5: Minshew And that line is probably gonna change if Watson plays, 532 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:01,679 Speaker 5: which at this point, if he's practicing, signs are pointing up. 533 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,400 Speaker 2: It's actually gone up to three already. Why practice, He's 534 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 2: got to be feeling somewhat better to be practicing. So yeah, 535 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 2: all right, that's I think it's a solid look. I 536 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,440 Speaker 2: think the Browns are in good position in that game. 537 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 2: Let's see. All right, one more Marks sneaks back to you. 538 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 3: All right. 539 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 4: I like to watch disasters just unfold before my eyes, 540 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:21,200 Speaker 4: and I am Maggie. 541 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:23,679 Speaker 3: You like blowouts you can finish your notes with in 542 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 3: quarter two? Is what you're like to see. 543 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:28,120 Speaker 2: Well, he's got the Brownies, and he wants to keep 544 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,639 Speaker 2: the focus where it needs in this case. 545 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 4: I mean, I think you've sent some passion around my 546 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 4: distaste and or almost actually joy for what's occurring to 547 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:37,160 Speaker 4: the patriots. 548 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 3: Weird because he wrote the Belichick letters, Yeah, what is 549 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 3: that about. 550 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 2: Let's let's let's sit there for a second, because I 551 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,920 Speaker 2: noticed there was a real venom. And this is coming 552 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 2: from a guy that adores this type of heat on 553 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 2: the Patriots. But I sense you talking about the Pats 554 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 2: and and Belichick in a way with a hissing sense. 555 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:57,439 Speaker 2: What where is that coming from? Why are you so 556 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 2: mad about the Patriots? And again, I'm not complaining. 557 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:02,360 Speaker 3: No, no, no, I love it. I'm just curious. 558 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 4: I agree that it's curious to me too, because like overall, 559 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 4: I have, like Bill Belichick's one of my like kind 560 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 4: of overall favorite NFL figures of all time. But I 561 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 4: kind of like they've also quietly been living in this 562 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 4: like dream carpet ride for decades, and it's like you 563 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 4: just it got normalized and it's different and it's new 564 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 4: and it's interesting, and it's like if the if Belichi 565 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 4: truly is the greatest coach and he has a chance 566 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,920 Speaker 4: to continue this job beyond this year, it's like I'm 567 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:29,399 Speaker 4: more interested to see how he gets out of this 568 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 4: mess than the how often he. 569 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 5: Won with I mean the carpet ride ended five years ago. 570 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 5: Five years did pretty long time. 571 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 4: I did, but like they but you'd argue that they 572 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:39,880 Speaker 4: they were a playoff two. 573 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 3: I mean like that, like maybe mac Jones work. They were, 574 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 3: they were hanging around nine wins. 575 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 2: This is different the second As I said at the time, 576 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:48,680 Speaker 2: they weren't special anymore. 577 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 3: Now they're bad. They're bad. How bad will they be? 578 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 2: This seems like a chance for them to I don't 579 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 2: mean they're back in July and in general in the past, 580 00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:00,239 Speaker 2: even post Brady, when they're in their Bill they they 581 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 2: they can be competitive. But this is the same team 582 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 2: that got shut out by the Saints a couple of 583 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 2: weeks ago. 584 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 3: And they're giving up ninety raising the hand that doesn't 585 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 3: I call him. 586 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 5: Mark has not actually drafted the game yet or revealed 587 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 5: what the game is, so I think that is a 588 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 5: good point of it. 589 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 4: It is Bills at Patriots and the Patriots at home 590 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 4: are getting nine points. I don't know if that's ever 591 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 4: happened to Build Belichick in New England. Maybe maybe be 592 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 4: before Tom Brady. They were a bad team. Then they 593 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 4: were a bad team. And this is like another little 594 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 4: thing that stood out to me. Where is this little thing? 595 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:33,199 Speaker 3: Hold on? 596 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,920 Speaker 4: You have to go back to the nineteen ninety two 597 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 4: Dick McPherson run New England Patriots. Greg you remember those years, 598 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 4: just a disaster for an offense. 599 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 5: This, the year where he won five or six games, 600 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:48,400 Speaker 5: was actually one of the best, like Patriots seasons. 601 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 3: This was not that year. This was not that year. 602 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:52,880 Speaker 4: I remember that with some spicy comacks and he's crying 603 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 4: on the sideline. You know, probably wish he still was 604 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 4: at Syracuse, But I get that. I don't for me 605 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 4: a little bit too. It's like the Bills escaped that 606 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 4: Giants game. They escaped. I think if that call doesn't happen, 607 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 4: if Darren Waller gets a call on the end like that, 608 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,399 Speaker 4: the Bills are asking a huge question about the Bills. 609 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 4: It's like Josh Allen, he'd been dominant in stretches, he 610 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 4: leads the league and completion percentage. He's also been I 611 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 4: think in that Giant scheme, like he left some passes 612 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 4: on the field and like seem to not read certain 613 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 4: wide open guys. And it's like outside of Stepan Digs, 614 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,119 Speaker 4: it's like it's hard to really say he's connected with 615 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 4: someone on a consistent basis. Miss James Cook on what 616 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 4: could have been a big touchdown a week ago. So 617 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 4: I think it's like, if you can't do it in 618 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 4: this game, Buffalo, I mean, this is a place to 619 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 4: go flex your muscles. And I think it's there's some 620 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,879 Speaker 4: added juice to it with being New England, get right, because. 621 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:40,160 Speaker 3: I I for a couple of weeks I. 622 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 4: See the Bills as like a dominant operation and then 623 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 4: I'm like, I don't don't trust them. 624 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 3: They're a weird too. 625 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,159 Speaker 2: They're like a team that you kind of know what's 626 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 2: coming by the end of the first quarter, like they're 627 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:49,439 Speaker 2: even going to just put. 628 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:51,639 Speaker 3: It on a team or they're just a little bit 629 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 3: out of sync. 630 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,359 Speaker 2: And they did to their credit, after what was a 631 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 2: woeful first half against the Giants. They had a couple 632 00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 2: of long touchdown drives in the second half and the 633 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,879 Speaker 2: defense didn't exactly light the world on fire either, and 634 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:04,640 Speaker 2: they were able to hold off at the very end there. 635 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 2: So they were very fortunate to get out of there 636 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,360 Speaker 2: with a win. And if nothing else, I guess it's 637 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,160 Speaker 2: a reminder to that team that you know, you can't 638 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,440 Speaker 2: just walk into any building and say where the Bills 639 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 2: and just roll because look at it, it's almost beat you. 640 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 2: In primetime that would have been a huge amos rs. 641 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 2: They own this matchup. 642 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 5: These are not the Giant I trust them to destroy 643 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:25,159 Speaker 5: the Patriots way more than I just, you know, against 644 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:27,199 Speaker 5: the Giants, who there was you know, a lot of 645 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:31,199 Speaker 5: coaching crossover there in terms of you know, knowledge and 646 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 5: dable and it just is an unfamiliar matchup versus a 647 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:40,400 Speaker 5: team that you ended. Whatever was left that was special 648 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 5: to me, truly ended at the end of the. 649 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 3: Patriots playoff season. 650 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 5: Actually like that, even though they made the playoffs that season, 651 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:53,239 Speaker 5: the fact that they lost forty seven to seventeen in 652 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:57,439 Speaker 5: the playoffs and didn't stop Josh Allen one single time 653 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 5: in that game or the regular season game before late 654 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 5: in the regular season. This defense this year, which I 655 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 5: thought had a chance to be very good, is not 656 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 5: gonna be good because of injuries partly and because it's 657 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 5: just not happening for some of their young players up 658 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:18,159 Speaker 5: front really growing in a way that I expected. But 659 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 5: injuries are a huge part of it. They have twenty 660 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 5: players on their injury report this week. 661 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 3: That is almost half the roster. 662 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:29,880 Speaker 5: That is outrageous, and like seven or eight of them 663 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:31,879 Speaker 5: are just out out there. They've got the thing where 664 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 5: like they can't even field a normal in actives list 665 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,720 Speaker 5: because they've got more players that are out than they 666 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 5: have in actives, and then they've got another fifteen guys 667 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 5: on the injury report. 668 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 4: So it's so good luck with that the real disadvantage 669 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 4: for me this week. 670 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 5: Let's see something out of von Miller though or no, 671 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:48,400 Speaker 5: I don't know if it's gonna happen this week, but 672 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 5: like I think it's just something to watch throughout the 673 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 5: course of the season that he hasn't not only been 674 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 5: playing a full complement of snaps, but just doesn't even 675 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 5: look remotely like von Miller, which is, you know, always 676 00:28:57,760 --> 00:28:59,840 Speaker 5: a risk when you're a thirty four year old coming 677 00:28:59,920 --> 00:29:01,240 Speaker 5: up off of it. 678 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 3: It's fair to ask the question, greg E. 679 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 2: All right, let's take a break and when we come back, 680 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 2: we'll get back to the draft. All right, welcome back. 681 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 2: It comes back to me and I will grab a 682 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 2: game that I feel like is gonna be interesting. The 683 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 2: Atlanta Falcons are traveling to Tampa to face the Buccaneers, 684 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:28,479 Speaker 2: who are getting two and a half. Do we have 685 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:31,959 Speaker 2: the Baker sound, Yeah, let's listen to Baker, who you know. 686 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 2: The Lions game last week was a tough one. I 687 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 2: think they I think internally Tampa entering that game three 688 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 2: and one, I believe saw it as a measuring stick 689 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 2: game and they did not measure up. 690 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:43,479 Speaker 3: And there's a lot of frustration. Let's listen to Baker. 691 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 3: We sucked today. I sucked today. We sucked today. It 692 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 3: was awful. If we play like that, we're gonna lose 693 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 3: every time. 694 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 6: So I mean, the defense and special teams did an 695 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 6: amazing job yet again, and offense, we just need to 696 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 6: pick her up. 697 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 3: Okay, I like it. Yeah, same, I like it. 698 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 2: They're owning up to it. And and they did leave 699 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 2: plays on the field. Baker did not play very well, 700 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 2: but they also you know, they just missed a couple ones, 701 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 2: very frustrating performance. He missed the young kid Palmer a 702 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 2: couple of times. The Evans hookup wasn't there. Godwin was 703 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 2: the only player they really had any type of chemistry. 704 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 2: And their screen game, which is an important part of 705 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 2: their offense, they couldn't get that going. And a lot 706 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 2: of credits got to go to Detroit and what they've 707 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 2: been able to do all year, which has become a 708 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 2: well balanced team, and they and they messed, They messed 709 00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 2: with Tampa now they get the Falcons, and the Falcons 710 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 2: to me have been a disappointing team boys on really 711 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 2: on both sides of the ball, and I just feel like. 712 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:43,560 Speaker 5: Too disagree with you there. But defense has been solid. 713 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 4: But you're right on offense, yes, okay, I mean could 714 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 4: put it what we were saying a month ago. 715 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 3: What were we saying? What is their DVOA? Overall? 716 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 5: It's buried twenty fifth? For sure, They're not They're not great. 717 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 5: I just didn't expect much on defense. 718 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 4: They've been on defense on third down like red zone. 719 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 3: To pick their average, which for them is better. 720 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,240 Speaker 2: I believe Tampa at home is in a very good 721 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 2: spot here against Atlanta, and I keep on thinking that 722 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 2: we're gonna eventually get the bottoming out game at the 723 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 2: quarterback position for Atlanta where Arthur Smith, instead of these 724 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 2: constant cuts to the sideline and he's stroking his mustache 725 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 2: and frustration, he actually does something about it. I think 726 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 2: it's gonna happen after this game. I'm locking up the 727 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 2: Tampa Bay Buccaneer, which I didn't think I would ever 728 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 2: do this season, lock up a Baker Mayfield team, but 729 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 2: I like what I've seen from the Bucks overall, I 730 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 2: like him at home and I like him. 731 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 3: I liked hearing Baker and that he's pissed and they're 732 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 3: looking to take it out on something. I'm with you. 733 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 4: I almost locked this too, and I'd see this as 734 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 4: a low scoring game that allows the Bucks to magnify 735 00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 4: their strengths. They are third against the run in terms 736 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 4: of EPA six feuis yard rushing yards. Well, listen to 737 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 4: some of these totals. This year, Vikings held to forty 738 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 4: one yards of the ground. Bad rushing team Bears sixty seven, 739 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 4: Saints seventy. 740 00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 3: The Lions forty. 741 00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 4: I know they were without some guys, but it's like, 742 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 4: this is what they do. Vidavea, as much as Baker Mayfield, 743 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 4: is kind of the guy in this game that I 744 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 4: think can take Atlanta, who for all the whistling and 745 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 4: I did a lot of it about what their identity 746 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:12,840 Speaker 4: would be this year, it's like the fourteenth best rushing team. 747 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 4: They've not been that great at that and they put 748 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 4: Desmond Ridder into a situation at times if you stop 749 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 4: the run where this guy that you just want to 750 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 4: not make mistakes has been making mistakes the last couple 751 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 4: of games and starting to turn the ball over, and 752 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 4: I don't love the situation for the Falcons, and I'm 753 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:27,200 Speaker 4: with you. I'm with you, Dan, I feel like this 754 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 4: could be where the trigger because this is a good 755 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 4: roster and the defense is solid and you've got parts, 756 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 4: and it's like, why not try Taylor Heineke if you're 757 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 4: going to get the same results with Ritter. 758 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:38,240 Speaker 3: I hear that one good game in a bunch of 759 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 3: bad games. 760 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 5: I hear all of that. I think you guys are right. 761 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:42,959 Speaker 5: I think last week kind of was a bottoming out. 762 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 5: I think he's had a couple bottoming out, and you're right, 763 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 5: it's just sort of on Smith to make the change 764 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:51,880 Speaker 5: at some point. But Arthur Smith bears as big a 765 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 5: you know, blame of anyone, not that he picked Ridder 766 00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 5: and that he stuck with Ridder, but that everything else 767 00:32:58,040 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 5: is such a mess. 768 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 3: I mean, you get a delay game on the goal line. 769 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 4: Essentially with the game on the leadle, and then you 770 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 4: come back and you almost the that's not on the 771 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 4: quarterback and what happens is an ensuing play. 772 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 3: Greg they ri Or throws a terrible right. It was 773 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 3: almost like you. 774 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 2: Get you get to delay a game, Greg game, then 775 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 2: you almost get cocked again and then you kind of 776 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 2: panicky threw it up for grabs. 777 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:20,239 Speaker 5: Okay, so terrible, that's Arthur Smith. But more, you know, 778 00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 5: looking from above is this run game. And that's the 779 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 5: thing that really gets me in this matchup a year ago, 780 00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 5: and I think this is a good litmus test, kind 781 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 5: of like I talked about with Chiefs Chargers. In this 782 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 5: matchup a year ago, teams are pretty similar for the 783 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:36,840 Speaker 5: most part. The Falcons ran for one fifty one and 784 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 5: one seventy fourth. They split the two games, but the 785 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 5: Falcons running game got it, got it going both times. 786 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 5: You remember last year's Falcons running game, it was. 787 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 4: Awesome, Yeah, Tyler Lgier. It did not have Bejon Robinson, 788 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:51,760 Speaker 4: who is awesome. And yet this year they're eighteenth in 789 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 4: DVOA in terms of they're running attack and it's not 790 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 4: about Bajon Robinson. Tayler Jeer is the perfect example of 791 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 4: how much worse it is because he he's the same player. 792 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 4: He averaged almost five yards per carry a year ago 793 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 4: and he's averaging three point two. 794 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 3: Now. 795 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 5: It's the blocking, it's the scheme. Everyone came prepared for it. 796 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:12,800 Speaker 5: There's different defenses which are maybe a little more ready 797 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 5: for this zone blocking scheme, and even though they have 798 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:19,160 Speaker 5: the same offensive line in the same scheme, none of 799 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 5: it's really working. And that's Arthur Smith. And you look 800 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 5: at the Rams, for instance, in them and the forty 801 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:27,960 Speaker 5: nine ers, who their running game is very diverse. They 802 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:29,360 Speaker 5: mix a lot of power, they do a lot of 803 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 5: different things. The Falcons are kind of they're do what 804 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 5: they do the zone running game, and they came back 805 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:35,719 Speaker 5: with what they did a year ago and it is 806 00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 5: not working. And to me, that's that's messed up their 807 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:41,799 Speaker 5: entire team. And Ridder's that fault too, but it's messed 808 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 5: up Ridder too. And I don't know, because it's a 809 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 5: tough matchup against a pretty good Bucks running I guess 810 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 5: like if. 811 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:51,040 Speaker 4: You like teams, teams you know new for months, this 812 00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:52,480 Speaker 4: is what the Falcons want to be. And they're going 813 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,239 Speaker 4: to put out a quarterback with very little experience. And 814 00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:57,840 Speaker 4: I think defenses this year versus even a year ago 815 00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 4: are like preparing and planning for the Falcons in a 816 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:03,279 Speaker 4: different way, selling out to stop the ground game, and 817 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 4: it's putting in these games. These games were Riders throwing 818 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:07,560 Speaker 4: the ball thirty five to forty times like that was 819 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 4: not the plan. 820 00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 5: I mean last week Ritter had ten there were ten 821 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 5: passes defense for their opponent. He put it on the 822 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:15,359 Speaker 5: other team's hands ten games and. 823 00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:19,000 Speaker 2: That was And he's thrown Yeah, he's thrown five interceptions 824 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 2: in the last three weeks. And if you were actually 825 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:23,960 Speaker 2: watching the games like this was coming. He was throwing 826 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:25,760 Speaker 2: the ball right in the hands of the defenders every 827 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:28,239 Speaker 2: week in the first month, and he was just the 828 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:30,080 Speaker 2: beneficiary of a lot of good luck and a lot 829 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:32,319 Speaker 2: of drops. And now they're not dropping the ball. And 830 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:34,160 Speaker 2: I think, like what you're saying with the running scheme 831 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:36,400 Speaker 2: and what's not quite right there? 832 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:40,279 Speaker 4: I think everything year, but the quarterback play was so 833 00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:41,440 Speaker 4: terrible last year. 834 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:43,719 Speaker 3: I know it was part of it. I know, so, 835 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 3: but what is it then that like, what is it? 836 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 5: I think, Well, sometimes there's things that are un explainable. 837 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 5: But the team that they brought back and the scheme 838 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:54,080 Speaker 5: teams are more ready for it for whatever reason, and 839 00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:54,719 Speaker 5: they're not playing it. 840 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:56,600 Speaker 2: They have I don't know, but they have a prodigy 841 00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 2: at running back and who has not been a problem. 842 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:01,719 Speaker 2: But you know, I'm not gonna say anything negative about him, 843 00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 2: but he's not winning games. 844 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:03,240 Speaker 3: By himself. 845 00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:06,959 Speaker 2: He's he's usually has a beautiful highlight reel play every week? 846 00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:08,879 Speaker 3: Is that? Does he need to get the ball more? 847 00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 4: Is it? 848 00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:10,040 Speaker 3: I don't know. 849 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:12,960 Speaker 2: It does seem like it's time to do something, Arthur, 850 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,320 Speaker 2: to mix this thing up before you blow the season. 851 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 3: And yet the winner fired. 852 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:19,760 Speaker 5: Is uh maybe my favorite because I don't trust the Saints. 853 00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:21,440 Speaker 5: This could this could sound bad when you listen to 854 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:23,839 Speaker 5: it on Friday, but just like it's crazy how big 855 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 5: interesting game is? 856 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 3: Interesting game? All right? Uh, Greg, you're up? 857 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:32,880 Speaker 5: Okay, I am gonna take a late game. Steelers at Rams. 858 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:36,799 Speaker 5: Rams favored by three good value pick. At this point, 859 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:40,680 Speaker 5: I think, uh, this Rams seem very watchable. Steelers coming 860 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:43,440 Speaker 5: off of bye Are they gonna be different? One of 861 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:46,319 Speaker 5: the things that I look to with the Rams is 862 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:48,239 Speaker 5: if you can protect Stafford. He's one of the best 863 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,399 Speaker 5: quarterbacks in the league. I think he is playing as 864 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:53,680 Speaker 5: well in the regular season as just about any of 865 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:56,839 Speaker 5: his great regular seasons. As someone who wrote the QB 866 00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:59,799 Speaker 5: Index for basically all of most of Stafford's career, I 867 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:02,400 Speaker 5: could tell you at the end of the year he 868 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:05,919 Speaker 5: would end up usually eleven to fifteen. He actually didn't 869 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,320 Speaker 5: have that many great regular seeds. He had a couple 870 00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:11,799 Speaker 5: and this, to me is one of them. But their 871 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 5: offensive line when they've gone up against great competition hasn't 872 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:19,680 Speaker 5: protected him as well. And this is great competition, so 873 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 5: high Smith and what if you can get after Stafford, 874 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 5: the Steelers can make this an uglier game. 875 00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:26,640 Speaker 3: And I think I. 876 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 5: Thought really hard about locking up the Rams here. I 877 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:31,840 Speaker 5: do like them to win this game. They are favored 878 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 5: by three. I didn't pull the trigger in the end 879 00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:38,240 Speaker 5: because what and high Smith just worry me and Tomlin coming. 880 00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:40,840 Speaker 4: Off of by It's like the Steelers are a weird defense, 881 00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 4: and I really I think we've all kind of like 882 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 4: yards per game or sort of they can they could 883 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,360 Speaker 4: be mystified and not really tell the story, but they 884 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 4: give up the third most yards per game on defense. 885 00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:53,479 Speaker 4: But their takeaways at the end of games and close games, 886 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:58,360 Speaker 4: especially like it's like TJ Watch Magic Power absolutely completely 887 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 4: changed the script. And I think it's a huge thing 888 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 4: about them, like we're in this, I see this being 889 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 4: real tight. I like the fact for a really bad 890 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 4: offense that probably at this point you just lean on 891 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:11,480 Speaker 4: Jaalen Warren and George Pickens, you know, Jayleen Warren feels 892 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 4: like he could be a little he could be a 893 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 4: little bit special for a really vanilla attack. But you 894 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:18,800 Speaker 4: are getting Pat Fryarmouth back at practice this week. Deontay 895 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 4: Johnson's back at practice. 896 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:25,279 Speaker 5: Like, I mean, that's huge, Absolutely, a wide receiver as 897 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 5: good as Pickins is right, I mean, this is an 898 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 5: offense that this is hard to do almost They have 899 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 5: average twelve point six points per game. 900 00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 3: They're the worst red zone attack in the league. 901 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,959 Speaker 4: They've scored thirty point plus points one twice since twenty 902 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:39,920 Speaker 4: twenty one, and they have a cross four hundred yards 903 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:41,680 Speaker 4: as an offense in fifty three games. 904 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, and they're they're facing an offense that is going 905 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:47,840 Speaker 2: to score points. I think it's a tough matchup for Pittsburgh. 906 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,720 Speaker 2: You gotta travel across the gotta travel across the country. 907 00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:53,400 Speaker 2: I know you're coming off your buye and I imagine 908 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:56,440 Speaker 2: Tomlin has been obsessing over this roster and how to 909 00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 2: fix things. So maybe you see a little bit different 910 00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:01,080 Speaker 2: in terms of scheme and matt on the offensive side 911 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:02,839 Speaker 2: of the ball. But I think the Rams are gonna 912 00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:06,080 Speaker 2: They're gonna continue to play well at home and score points. 913 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 2: And I just don't see it. I don't see it 914 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:10,319 Speaker 2: coming with this offense, with this quarterback right now, the 915 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:13,480 Speaker 2: ability to score twenty two points or whatever it's gonna take. 916 00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:16,879 Speaker 5: Okay, I agree for the most part. And I love 917 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 5: the energy that Raheem Morris has. The Rams defense played with. 918 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:21,600 Speaker 5: They're not the most talented group, they play with a 919 00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:24,000 Speaker 5: lot of energy, you can see it. But Deontay Johnson 920 00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:28,560 Speaker 5: is a huge addition for a team we've recognized can't 921 00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:31,760 Speaker 5: really win schematically, but he's just a player that wins 922 00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 5: on his own. He gets open about as regularly as 923 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,080 Speaker 5: any number two type of receiver in the league. Friarmouth 924 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 5: is a big time player for them too, So that 925 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 5: really changes their offense and makes it challenging for the 926 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:46,040 Speaker 5: Rams defense. And then you flip it and you lose 927 00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:47,520 Speaker 5: Kyron Williams on the Rams side. 928 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:49,360 Speaker 3: We didn't hit that on Wednesday. 929 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:52,320 Speaker 5: He's going to be out, according to the reports, multiple weeks. 930 00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:55,799 Speaker 5: His backup also was hurt Ronnie Rivers last week. He's 931 00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:58,320 Speaker 5: out four to five weeks. He was put on injured reserve. 932 00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 5: And so they're doing this thing where they're like trying 933 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 5: out a bunch of different players during practice. They Zach 934 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:06,279 Speaker 5: Evans is a guy they've liked who's a special it's 935 00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:09,520 Speaker 5: been a special teamer. They actually re signed Darryl Henderson 936 00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:12,200 Speaker 5: to their practice, but weird one. That's why old Royce 937 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:14,719 Speaker 5: Freeman who's bounced around, is there. So they're just they're 938 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:16,120 Speaker 5: trying things and they want to run the ball. But 939 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:17,279 Speaker 5: that's a pretty sick that kills him. 940 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 4: Kiren Williams, like in that second half against the cardif 941 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:22,239 Speaker 4: time was I thought that was what they could be 942 00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 4: for weeks and weeks going forward. 943 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:27,520 Speaker 2: Uh, somebody feels very confident this week? Oh yeah, wow, 944 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:29,040 Speaker 2: I didn't. 945 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,440 Speaker 6: Let's sad to the Cincinnati What have we got, Eric Robert, Yes, guys, 946 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:35,480 Speaker 6: the Cincinnati Zoo has weighed in. No video this week, 947 00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 6: no video, no message, but they're. 948 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 3: Probably all in jail. The way they're fighting. It's it's 949 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:43,239 Speaker 3: amazing as fully the one member of the zoo is 950 00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:44,799 Speaker 3: out and one of them is a child. 951 00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:49,279 Speaker 6: So I assume I'm texting Nick, right, Uh? 952 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:52,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, typically so Nick Nick he calls himself the zoo 953 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:54,640 Speaker 2: keeper now I believe which is the brand. 954 00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 6: So no video message, but he didn't want to let 955 00:40:56,600 --> 00:41:00,120 Speaker 6: you know. They picked the Rams over the Steelers and 956 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:03,040 Speaker 6: the only thing he wanted me to I guess that 957 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:06,760 Speaker 6: you guys know is that quotes Greg is a coward. 958 00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:10,640 Speaker 3: That's all he wanted me to tell you guys. It 959 00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:11,760 Speaker 3: doesn't even make sense. 960 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,040 Speaker 4: Keep that messaging clean and simple. I like it. 961 00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:16,400 Speaker 3: Make sure you call Greg a coward on my behalf 962 00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:17,080 Speaker 3: end quote. 963 00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:20,080 Speaker 2: So he texted you and he here's my pick, and 964 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:20,960 Speaker 2: tell Greg he's. 965 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:21,319 Speaker 3: At the coward. 966 00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:23,919 Speaker 6: He was busy, you know, So no video this week 967 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:26,480 Speaker 6: if you if I can't get to it, make sure 968 00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:28,320 Speaker 6: you call Greg a coward on my behalf. 969 00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:31,760 Speaker 3: All right, and now you have there, you go.

And you're according to your standards and worlds. 973 00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:41,040 Speaker 3: I mean clearly. 974 00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:44,799 Speaker 5: Nick is a competitive guy who's never won a lock 975 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:48,000 Speaker 5: championship and never really been in contention in the final 976 00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:48,880 Speaker 5: week or so. 977 00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:50,279 Speaker 3: He wants what I have. 978 00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 2: Feels like a good time to check in.

Put Greg 997 00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:43,000 Speaker 3: and the crosshairs. 998 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 5: Really, that would be another lock. There's too many this 999 00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:49,239 Speaker 5: This week's stuff. This week is tough. 1000 00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 3: All right, let's see Greg back to you. 1001 00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:54,799 Speaker 5: Okay, I'm gonna take the worst game on the board. 1002 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:57,560 Speaker 5: I like to do that as my backup morning Mark. 1003 00:42:57,480 --> 00:42:59,600 Speaker 2: Likes to do that. High in the draft. Other people 1004 00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:01,080 Speaker 2: tend to lower with the pick. 1005 00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:03,120 Speaker 5: Okay, I can leave a different one for you, Dan. 1006 00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:07,200 Speaker 5: I'm going to take Raiders minus three. At the Chicago Bears. 1007 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:10,120 Speaker 5: We've reached it, guys, We're at week seven. This is 1008 00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:15,120 Speaker 5: a terrible game, and we have in the National Football League, 1009 00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:17,439 Speaker 5: And I, for once I think that is necessary because 1010 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,279 Speaker 5: I want to point out this is not one of 1011 00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:25,640 Speaker 5: those spring leagues. It's not the XFL, it's not the AFL. 1012 00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:29,120 Speaker 5: I think they combined the CFL. They are going to combine. 1013 00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:32,960 Speaker 5: But we got we got Aid and O'Connell potentially starting 1014 00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 5: for the Raiders, but we don't know. And we've got 1015 00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:42,160 Speaker 5: Tyson Badgen expected to start for the Chicago Bears. I 1016 00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:46,120 Speaker 5: went and watched this Badgeant sixteen dropbacks because people were like, hey, 1017 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:49,280 Speaker 5: Badgin actually was kind of fun. I was like, why, Ah, 1018 00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:51,440 Speaker 5: he was kind of a mild disaster and what am 1019 00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:51,920 Speaker 5: I missing? 1020 00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:54,839 Speaker 4: Yeah, he dropped back to past sixteen times. He had 1021 00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:59,839 Speaker 4: two disastrous turnovers. He made one really nice seam throw 1022 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,319 Speaker 4: I think was that to Mooney. I forget number two on. 1023 00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:05,239 Speaker 3: That must have really registered the yogals. And he had 1024 00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:06,360 Speaker 3: a couple he had a couple. 1025 00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:08,960 Speaker 5: He had a couple of throws that were that were fine. 1026 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:10,800 Speaker 5: He got rid of the ball a little quicker than fields. 1027 00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 5: But I saw nothing in that game that made me 1028 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 5: think they're upgrading that quarterback put it that way, so, 1029 00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:17,760 Speaker 5: I I guess I get why the Raiders are favored, 1030 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:21,040 Speaker 5: but man, having Aiden O'Connell potentially favored by three points 1031 00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 5: is also outrageous. 1032 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 2: Maybe is Max Max Crosby just has four sacks and 1033 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:27,080 Speaker 2: ruins the game single handed. 1034 00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean if they did throw in Brian Hoyer, 1035 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,200 Speaker 4: this is like he's lost twelve straight starts. 1036 00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:35,400 Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, I should, I should anymore provide context here 1037 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:37,799 Speaker 5: that I'm just guessing O'Connell. 1038 00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:39,960 Speaker 3: But maybe it will be Hoyer. 1039 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,200 Speaker 5: There was a report that they had decided who their 1040 00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:45,600 Speaker 5: starter will be, and the idea was maybe like Hoyer 1041 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:47,759 Speaker 5: was coming in when it's like replacing during the game 1042 00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:50,680 Speaker 5: and Garoppo is not practicing, but he's also not ruled out. 1043 00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:51,520 Speaker 3: We don't know much more. 1044 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:53,480 Speaker 4: It's uh, yeah, I mean this is these these are 1045 00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:57,200 Speaker 4: like the games like this just both teams just eminate depression. 1046 00:44:57,200 --> 00:44:59,040 Speaker 3: I just cannot. I'm glad you're watching the strike have 1047 00:44:59,080 --> 00:44:59,480 Speaker 3: a nice time. 1048 00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:01,680 Speaker 5: But here's what's a difference. One of them is favored 1049 00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:03,759 Speaker 5: to be four and three after that Sunday ends. 1050 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,279 Speaker 3: Isn't that crazy? Well, yeah, it's fraudulent. It's what it is. 1051 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:10,400 Speaker 3: I mean, Josh Jacobs is this is this is interesting. 1052 00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 4: I have to wonder if this someone just cooked this 1053 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:16,240 Speaker 4: into our research notebook as a complete fake. Josh Jacobs 1054 00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:20,160 Speaker 4: is on pace to join someone named Toffy LeMans the only. 1055 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,759 Speaker 3: Player that's a mark man now. 1056 00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:24,799 Speaker 4: It's the only player to average under three yards per 1057 00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:26,919 Speaker 4: carry the season after leading the NFL and rushing Toughy 1058 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:30,600 Speaker 4: Lemons who existed back in nineteen thirty seven. So well done, 1059 00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:32,839 Speaker 4: Josh Jacobs, and we've got this. DeVante Adams is now. 1060 00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:35,000 Speaker 4: But it's not Josh Jacobs. That's the thing. It's kind 1061 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 4: of like the Falcons. 1062 00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 5: I'm more convinced than every yards per carry is like 1063 00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:40,319 Speaker 5: an offensive line. Well, if we know anyth about Josh Jacobs, 1064 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:42,160 Speaker 5: there was some suspicion that what he was last year 1065 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:43,440 Speaker 5: was just going to be for the next three or 1066 00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:43,960 Speaker 5: four years. 1067 00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 4: He's always been hot and cold. The offense feels disorganized 1068 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:48,759 Speaker 4: to me. DeVante Adams is upset. I think we've got 1069 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:50,400 Speaker 4: some sound for him. We predicted this. 1070 00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:51,520 Speaker 3: Let's listen to me. 1071 00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:54,080 Speaker 7: It's not just about you know, I'm sure people thinking 1072 00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:56,040 Speaker 7: like you know what they won the game they won 1073 00:45:56,080 --> 00:45:57,960 Speaker 7: the Packers game. You know why is there an issue? 1074 00:45:58,120 --> 00:45:59,880 Speaker 7: I mean, you see why it is the issue. You know, 1075 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 7: y'all should know who I am, know what I'm about 1076 00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:04,640 Speaker 7: at this point. So it's not about you know when 1077 00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:07,920 Speaker 7: when you when you're a player like me mentally is 1078 00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:11,960 Speaker 7: my benchmark is not wins and losses, is greatness. So 1079 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:13,919 Speaker 7: when I go out there, I expect to be able 1080 00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:16,000 Speaker 7: to have that ability to put that on tape and 1081 00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 7: have an influence on the game. And that's like I 1082 00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:21,359 Speaker 7: say every week, that's my purpose for being here. I'm 1083 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:22,680 Speaker 7: not here just to hang out. 1084 00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:26,799 Speaker 2: It's like the the Factory's blank number of days without 1085 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:29,000 Speaker 2: an accident, and then he got to somebody falls off 1086 00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:31,280 Speaker 2: a ladder or into a vat of acid or something, 1087 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:31,839 Speaker 2: and then. 1088 00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:34,000 Speaker 3: You have to erase the chalkboard. It's a tragedy. 1089 00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:35,319 Speaker 2: One of those would be worse than the other one. 1090 00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:36,919 Speaker 2: And uh, and then you have to put the zero 1091 00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:39,160 Speaker 2: and it's a tough move. That's went back to zero 1092 00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:42,280 Speaker 2: days without a wide receiver chirping to the media about 1093 00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:42,799 Speaker 2: their role. 1094 00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:46,439 Speaker 3: Of course, not EVERYR wide receiver is the same. 1095 00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:49,239 Speaker 2: DeVante Adams he can chirp because he's Devanta Adams and 1096 00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:49,799 Speaker 2: that's hard. 1097 00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:52,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, to me, that's productive chirping it. And it was 1098 00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:54,520 Speaker 5: on a question of why he wants to be better. 1099 00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:57,920 Speaker 2: Sure, I'm not I'm not taking anything. I'm not you know, 1100 00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:00,200 Speaker 2: going after ATMs. I'm more just saying this is part 1101 00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:03,600 Speaker 2: of what comes with having wide receivers and high profile 1102 00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:04,520 Speaker 2: ones and elite ones. 1103 00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:05,520 Speaker 3: You gotta get them the ball. 1104 00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:07,480 Speaker 2: If you don't get them the ball, you're gonna hear 1105 00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:10,880 Speaker 2: about it, either inside the building or outside or And 1106 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:11,879 Speaker 2: that's what's happening here. 1107 00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:14,120 Speaker 3: And they do have to do it. They figure out away. 1108 00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:17,360 Speaker 3: He's been like, you know, more of a decoin spots. 1109 00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:19,279 Speaker 4: But I do think he was like sold a bill 1110 00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:21,319 Speaker 4: of goods on some level because it's like, come back 1111 00:47:21,360 --> 00:47:23,160 Speaker 4: and here's this story. I never thought it was gonna 1112 00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:24,960 Speaker 4: turn out great, but like come play with your best 1113 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:27,600 Speaker 4: friend Derek Carr. Then you move on from Derek Carr 1114 00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:29,640 Speaker 4: in a way that Demania Adams never understood. 1115 00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:32,279 Speaker 2: At the same time, like that was a calculated risk 1116 00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:35,359 Speaker 2: from the very star. Sure, you went to a Raiders 1117 00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:39,200 Speaker 2: organization that has not done much of anything in years. 1118 00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:41,480 Speaker 2: You joined kind of a mid tier quarterback that is 1119 00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:43,759 Speaker 2: a buddy of yours, and you left Aaron Rodgers and 1120 00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:45,960 Speaker 2: the Packers behind. It was always a bit of a gamble. 1121 00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:47,960 Speaker 2: The money was great and getting back to Vegas or 1122 00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,680 Speaker 2: whatever it is was great, I wonder, and we could 1123 00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:53,520 Speaker 2: save it for a conversation next week. If this is 1124 00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:56,600 Speaker 2: the first of maybe a very quick story. 1125 00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:59,160 Speaker 4: It feels flash pointy, but we have talked about this before. 1126 00:47:59,200 --> 00:47:59,919 Speaker 3: There was a move. 1127 00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:02,360 Speaker 5: He's also, by the way, on pace for thirteen hundred 1128 00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:03,120 Speaker 5: and fifty yards. 1129 00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:05,799 Speaker 2: He's not having like totally different though last year he 1130 00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:07,960 Speaker 2: was a monster. He was every bit as productive and 1131 00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:10,799 Speaker 2: good as he was with Aaron Rodgers playing with Derek Carr. 1132 00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:12,759 Speaker 2: But it just doesn't feel the same this year. 1133 00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:15,040 Speaker 4: And he's and you've got and if you've got you know, 1134 00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:17,560 Speaker 4: people like Brian Hoyer and Aidan O'Connell in there, it's 1135 00:48:17,600 --> 00:48:18,840 Speaker 4: not going to get any better. And like I was 1136 00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:20,879 Speaker 4: just saying to Greg, like, could you if they weren't 1137 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,160 Speaker 4: in the same division and the Raiders wanted to get 1138 00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:25,319 Speaker 4: out of this, because it's just there's no just if 1139 00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:28,000 Speaker 4: he wound up on the Chiefs, all right, wow. 1140 00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:28,600 Speaker 3: Let's move on. 1141 00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:32,560 Speaker 2: I was trying not to throw anything out there because 1142 00:48:32,600 --> 00:48:35,120 Speaker 2: we save it for a conversation. 1143 00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:36,320 Speaker 3: That's a fantasy that's not about to happen. 1144 00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:41,279 Speaker 2: Never know, all right, I am up and this one 1145 00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:44,319 Speaker 2: actually works out nicely because I really do. I was 1146 00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:47,600 Speaker 2: thinking about it after the Wednesday show, like, ah, should 1147 00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:48,040 Speaker 2: I have been? 1148 00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:50,920 Speaker 3: And I wasn't the only one that said nay, I don't. Oh. 1149 00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:52,800 Speaker 3: I was actually with the Giant the Giants. 1150 00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:55,839 Speaker 2: I saved the Giants Washington the Giants so and then 1151 00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:57,839 Speaker 2: I was thinking to myself, if I was willing to 1152 00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:04,160 Speaker 2: save the Giants in the Fork Committee proceedings, do I 1153 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:07,640 Speaker 2: owe it to the g men and to to the board, 1154 00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:10,040 Speaker 2: to the committee to lock the g Men this week 1155 00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:12,680 Speaker 2: against the Commanders. And ultimately I went against doing that 1156 00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:15,200 Speaker 2: because you just don't lock one in five football teams 1157 00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:17,840 Speaker 2: because they got that way for a reason. 1158 00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:21,320 Speaker 3: However, I do I like the Giants this week. 1159 00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:26,319 Speaker 2: I thought, even in a crushing loss to Buffalo, I 1160 00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:29,480 Speaker 2: like this idea that the worst is the worst has 1161 00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:31,560 Speaker 2: passed this team. I didn't think. I don't think that 1162 00:49:31,719 --> 00:49:34,799 Speaker 2: this coaching staff overnight became bad. I think there's a 1163 00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:37,440 Speaker 2: reason why they were an organization on the upswing going 1164 00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:39,880 Speaker 2: into this year. I think they're gonna steady the ship 1165 00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:41,839 Speaker 2: and and and that's why I didn't want to fork 1166 00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:44,319 Speaker 2: them because I think I think in about a month, 1167 00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:47,680 Speaker 2: in about a month to six weeks from now, we'll 1168 00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:49,319 Speaker 2: be talking about, oh, the Giants, Oh they have a 1169 00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:51,319 Speaker 2: sneaky three game winning streak all of a sudden. Yeah, 1170 00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:53,200 Speaker 2: it's like and maybe that only gets them back to 1171 00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:55,240 Speaker 2: four and six. And it's not like you're you're pounding 1172 00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:57,120 Speaker 2: the table that they're they're going to the super Bowl 1173 00:49:57,239 --> 00:49:59,879 Speaker 2: or anything. But I think there's gonna be some life. 1174 00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:02,919 Speaker 2: I think it starts here. I think the Giants at home, 1175 00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:05,880 Speaker 2: what is this situation? A quarterback, I would say that's important. 1176 00:50:06,080 --> 00:50:08,720 Speaker 2: But Tyrod Taylor, I think is a good enough backup 1177 00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:13,200 Speaker 2: where the offense will remain functional. And against Washington, which 1178 00:50:13,239 --> 00:50:15,600 Speaker 2: is kind of a hard team to figure out week 1179 00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:19,520 Speaker 2: to week, this feels like a g men victory week. 1180 00:50:19,719 --> 00:50:22,480 Speaker 3: I might be alan on this. This is a crazy matchup. 1181 00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:25,560 Speaker 4: They were heading into Week seven and these teams have 1182 00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:28,280 Speaker 4: combined to give up seventy seven sacks and it's pretty 1183 00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:31,160 Speaker 4: it's thirty four for Washington and thirty three for the Giants. 1184 00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:33,239 Speaker 4: I mean, we've seen it a lot in New York 1185 00:50:33,320 --> 00:50:36,279 Speaker 4: on prime time and with Sam Howell, who's been like 1186 00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:40,279 Speaker 4: a really interesting quarterback, I think, but it's not like 1187 00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:42,719 Speaker 4: how it's different than the New York's offensive line is 1188 00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:45,000 Speaker 4: one of these units you're talking about, like every time 1189 00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:47,600 Speaker 4: you turn around, they lose a starter, they lose backups, 1190 00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:50,200 Speaker 4: they lose third string guys, like it is a complete disaster. 1191 00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:52,440 Speaker 4: And I think a lot of that is Daniel Jones 1192 00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:55,920 Speaker 4: getting crushed because of that injury situation. But Washington grades 1193 00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:58,520 Speaker 4: out by certain metrics. It's like around the eighth best 1194 00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:03,520 Speaker 4: blocking pass blocking unit. And Howell holds that ball thirty 1195 00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:07,280 Speaker 4: four of his sacks, thirteen of them are essentially charged 1196 00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:09,600 Speaker 4: on him according to PFF. So you know, I think 1197 00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:12,800 Speaker 4: if he could that goes back to his pre college 1198 00:51:12,840 --> 00:51:14,160 Speaker 4: tape two. You know, if you look at some of 1199 00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:16,440 Speaker 4: the scouting reports. So I mean, if he could change that, 1200 00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:18,839 Speaker 4: I think they've really got They've got like the chance 1201 00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:22,239 Speaker 4: to have a quarterback that is extremely productive. But this 1202 00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:24,600 Speaker 4: is maybe a chance for a pretty defunct Giants pass 1203 00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:26,760 Speaker 4: rush to caveon Thibodeau. 1204 00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:29,239 Speaker 3: Our friend like to him and the company do something there. 1205 00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:32,080 Speaker 2: I could count the number of sacks the gized I've 1206 00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:33,520 Speaker 2: had on all season on one. 1207 00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:34,560 Speaker 3: Hit, yeah, fie. 1208 00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:40,520 Speaker 5: And that's despite the most blitz heavy team in the league. 1209 00:51:40,520 --> 00:51:42,680 Speaker 5: I'm not sure if they actually have passed if they're 1210 00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:45,520 Speaker 5: ahead of Minnesota at this point, but they've been one 1211 00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:49,080 Speaker 5: two all year, so they blitzed like crazy and they 1212 00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:52,200 Speaker 5: never get home. So that's kind of the question of 1213 00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:54,319 Speaker 5: every team that plays the Giants is like, how are 1214 00:51:54,320 --> 00:51:56,799 Speaker 5: you going to handle the blitz? And the answer for 1215 00:51:56,880 --> 00:52:00,000 Speaker 5: almost every team has been awesome. The Giants are terrible. 1216 00:52:00,360 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 5: I don't see it. I know they had like a 1217 00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:06,120 Speaker 5: good sixty minutes in Buffalo in a matchup we talked 1218 00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:08,759 Speaker 5: about already, But for the most part, I think that 1219 00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:11,680 Speaker 5: they are the worst team in the NFL, along with 1220 00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:13,759 Speaker 5: the Panthers and now you can throw the Patriots in there. 1221 00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:16,200 Speaker 5: But in terms of like the total resume, I think 1222 00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:19,840 Speaker 5: they're it. And they're so injured on the offensive line. 1223 00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:24,440 Speaker 5: They're losing new guys in practice. Shane Lemieux tore his 1224 00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:27,880 Speaker 5: biceps on Wednesday. He was another I think he was 1225 00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:30,520 Speaker 5: actually a replacement. I'm losing check of who's the replacement, 1226 00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:33,120 Speaker 5: who wasn't he was he was, but he had been 1227 00:52:33,160 --> 00:52:35,319 Speaker 5: there previously and been a starter previously. 1228 00:52:35,719 --> 00:52:39,280 Speaker 3: Evan Neil was a top ten pick a year ago. 1229 00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:42,480 Speaker 5: It's funny how like Cavon sometimes gets attentions like Cavin's 1230 00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:42,879 Speaker 5: been fine. 1231 00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:44,600 Speaker 4: He hasn't been great, but he hasn't been bad. 1232 00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:47,279 Speaker 5: Evan Neil was a top ten pick and I think 1233 00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:50,640 Speaker 5: according to PFF, was ranked second to last among all 1234 00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:51,880 Speaker 5: qualifiers at tackle. 1235 00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:53,120 Speaker 3: It's time to get him off tack. 1236 00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:57,160 Speaker 4: He's injured. Andrew Thomas is injured. Still he's not coming back, 1237 00:52:57,280 --> 00:53:00,359 Speaker 4: like their center is still injured. So I'd just think 1238 00:53:00,440 --> 00:53:04,759 Speaker 4: Washington's gonna eat. And I like the I like the Commanders. 1239 00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:07,399 Speaker 4: I like them getting two and a half. 1240 00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:09,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, and yes, I think what you're saying. We're talking 1241 00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:11,960 Speaker 2: about the struggles and the injury issues of that line. 1242 00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:14,960 Speaker 2: The Giants have allowed close to one hundred pressures, the 1243 00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:18,759 Speaker 2: Commanders of ninety one pressures, and that's ninth most in 1244 00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:19,280 Speaker 2: the NFL. 1245 00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:21,239 Speaker 3: So here's the thing. 1246 00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:25,480 Speaker 2: I will you can call me in front of the committee, 1247 00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:27,840 Speaker 2: which will be a little weird because who's also the 1248 00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:29,200 Speaker 2: chairperson on Wednesday? 1249 00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:31,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, feels that fell. 1250 00:53:31,480 --> 00:53:33,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, you could call me in front of the committee 1251 00:53:33,840 --> 00:53:36,080 Speaker 2: on Sunday night. If the Giants don't find a way 1252 00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:40,200 Speaker 2: in this game, I will not only apologize for delaying 1253 00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:44,279 Speaker 2: work on the Giants, I will fork them myself, which is, 1254 00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:46,319 Speaker 2: you know, difficult to do. I have many friends that 1255 00:53:46,360 --> 00:53:50,560 Speaker 2: are supporters of boudreamn But it will be overdue. We 1256 00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:51,480 Speaker 2: shall see what happened. 1257 00:53:51,480 --> 00:53:54,440 Speaker 5: What if I, at that point, just to be annoying, 1258 00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:56,280 Speaker 5: was like, no, actually, now I'm going to stop. 1259 00:53:57,040 --> 00:53:58,680 Speaker 3: Stop the fork. I did want to say to you, 1260 00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:00,680 Speaker 3: Greg and not the Giants. You would never stopped. Oh 1261 00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:00,880 Speaker 3: that's it. 1262 00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:04,759 Speaker 5: Daniel Jones did practice Wednesday and Thursday, but has not 1263 00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:10,520 Speaker 5: been cleared for contact, so that leads his availability in 1264 00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:14,440 Speaker 5: question because there is, as far as I'm concerned, a 1265 00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:16,600 Speaker 5: lot of contact in an NFL game and. 1266 00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:18,000 Speaker 3: Let's let's move. 1267 00:54:18,040 --> 00:54:19,520 Speaker 2: But we didn't get a chance to talk about this 1268 00:54:19,560 --> 00:54:22,120 Speaker 2: as a group this Sunday night game against Buffalo Man 1269 00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:25,400 Speaker 2: when when Sakon was heating up and he's running the football, 1270 00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:27,880 Speaker 2: you look good, you gotta kee keep feeding into him 1271 00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:30,120 Speaker 2: that Too many times they went away from that, including 1272 00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:33,120 Speaker 2: on their their penultimate scoring drive when you should have 1273 00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:35,680 Speaker 2: just seen they were wearing down the Buffalo Bills. 1274 00:54:35,880 --> 00:54:39,479 Speaker 3: Can they do that against Washington? Uh? We shall see. 1275 00:54:39,600 --> 00:54:41,920 Speaker 2: Mark we're going to close out the draft with a 1276 00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:43,400 Speaker 2: double header from the Cesstag. 1277 00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:47,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm somehow now getting two late games. That should 1278 00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:48,840 Speaker 4: make for an interesting second part of the day. 1279 00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:52,600 Speaker 2: Old sly Cestog did you have any type of game plan, 1280 00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:55,840 Speaker 2: Kaiser associated, Well, well, yeah, one of. 1281 00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:57,239 Speaker 4: Them is going to be given a nick shut. Yeah, 1282 00:54:57,280 --> 00:54:59,520 Speaker 4: I'm gonna say we we will handle this. We'll figure 1283 00:54:59,520 --> 00:55:01,399 Speaker 4: it out, figure out behind the scenes. The listener does 1284 00:55:01,480 --> 00:55:04,719 Speaker 4: not care at all. Uh, all right, Cardinals at Seahawks. 1285 00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:08,719 Speaker 4: I have to admit my my uh temporary luster for 1286 00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:12,200 Speaker 4: the Cardinals operation took a big hit in the second 1287 00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:15,640 Speaker 4: half of that Rams game. A number of serious, uh 1288 00:55:15,680 --> 00:55:18,600 Speaker 4: deficiencies were revealed. One that I think will really hurt 1289 00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:21,040 Speaker 4: them in this game. They they're like the second one 1290 00:55:21,040 --> 00:55:23,520 Speaker 4: of the like they're a bottom five run defense, and 1291 00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:29,879 Speaker 4: it shows. 1292 00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:29,760 Speaker 3: About them has been offense related. 1293 00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:32,040 Speaker 4: It has been, and it's been you know all even 1294 00:55:32,040 --> 00:55:34,040 Speaker 4: that has been happening for about thirty minutes out of 1295 00:55:34,080 --> 00:55:37,200 Speaker 4: sixty in games, only five teams are giving up more points. 1296 00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:38,400 Speaker 4: I think this is a kind of game where if 1297 00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:41,319 Speaker 4: you're Seattle, it's in Seattle, they're you know, they're giving 1298 00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:43,360 Speaker 4: up seven and a half I could see them covering 1299 00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:45,480 Speaker 4: without too much of a headache there. 1300 00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:47,960 Speaker 3: The Dobbs train has fallen off a little bit. 1301 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:50,960 Speaker 4: I think this is a great spot for Kenneth Walker, 1302 00:55:51,719 --> 00:55:52,720 Speaker 4: just to run them wild. 1303 00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:55,320 Speaker 3: And I the one thing I noticed about. 1304 00:55:55,160 --> 00:55:58,839 Speaker 4: Seattle's injury report that there were Tyler Lockett a little 1305 00:55:58,880 --> 00:56:01,520 Speaker 4: banged up, DK Metcalf a little banged up, Zach Sharbonne 1306 00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:02,399 Speaker 4: a little banged up. 1307 00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:03,920 Speaker 3: I don't know. 1308 00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:05,799 Speaker 4: I think I think in a way that may not 1309 00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:08,040 Speaker 4: matter too much. If these guys can get out get 1310 00:56:08,040 --> 00:56:10,120 Speaker 4: on the field to some degree. I would like to 1311 00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:12,520 Speaker 4: see one last little note on their offense. Jackson Smith 1312 00:56:12,520 --> 00:56:15,680 Speaker 4: and Jigba yardish totals in five games. 1313 00:56:16,440 --> 00:56:17,279 Speaker 3: I was wrong about this. 1314 00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:18,799 Speaker 4: I thought he would be coming in as like an 1315 00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:22,800 Speaker 4: offensive rookie the year type candidate thirteen yards, thirty four, ten, five, 1316 00:56:23,080 --> 00:56:25,480 Speaker 4: forty eight. I don't know, thought they were like I 1317 00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:27,319 Speaker 4: thought he'd like. You seem to me like the guy 1318 00:56:27,320 --> 00:56:29,120 Speaker 4: that come in and translate pretty quickly. 1319 00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:32,480 Speaker 5: Now they're Passingham has been quite uneven. I think last 1320 00:56:32,640 --> 00:56:37,080 Speaker 5: week against Cincinnati was a great example. Like Gino threw 1321 00:56:37,920 --> 00:56:40,480 Speaker 5: five or six passes as pretty as anyone in the 1322 00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:43,120 Speaker 5: league and had a ton of great completions, but when 1323 00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:44,640 Speaker 5: they needed to, they couldn't get it done. They've been 1324 00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:47,920 Speaker 5: very bad in situational football, red zone and third downs. 1325 00:56:48,120 --> 00:56:50,360 Speaker 3: It's very important. They haven't been able to spread around. 1326 00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:53,120 Speaker 5: Now they are like the Giants, a team that's lost 1327 00:56:53,200 --> 00:56:55,840 Speaker 5: three or four starting offensive lineman and they haven't looked 1328 00:56:55,880 --> 00:56:58,319 Speaker 5: so bad that like they're getting all the blame because 1329 00:56:58,320 --> 00:57:00,120 Speaker 5: of that. But maybe that's showing up. I think think 1330 00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:02,279 Speaker 5: they're going to get one of their tackles back this week. 1331 00:57:02,360 --> 00:57:02,759 Speaker 3: Is that right? 1332 00:57:02,800 --> 00:57:05,960 Speaker 5: I think is it Cross that's returning, not Lucas, so 1333 00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:07,480 Speaker 5: that that's something. 1334 00:57:07,760 --> 00:57:08,840 Speaker 3: But I see you twelves. 1335 00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:10,960 Speaker 5: By the way, I happen to follow a lot of 1336 00:57:11,840 --> 00:57:17,080 Speaker 5: Seahawks fans on Twitter, Theawks media and Chris and I 1337 00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:23,120 Speaker 5: saw some Drew Lock chatter popping up this week, and 1338 00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:27,200 Speaker 5: I just want to say, how dare you Seahawks Twitter? 1339 00:57:27,960 --> 00:57:29,280 Speaker 3: How dare you? 1340 00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:32,320 Speaker 4: He's played well this year, He's been an above average 1341 00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:35,160 Speaker 4: starting quarterback. He played well in that game for the 1342 00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:38,120 Speaker 4: most part. That pressure was on on Quick. It wasn't 1343 00:57:38,160 --> 00:57:40,040 Speaker 4: a great game. I I I got on him for 1344 00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:42,000 Speaker 4: holding the ball too long last week, but like their 1345 00:57:42,040 --> 00:57:43,520 Speaker 4: offensive line was a disaster. 1346 00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:46,000 Speaker 3: In that game, and he's been very good. If you 1347 00:57:46,040 --> 00:57:48,680 Speaker 3: want Drew Locke, you can have him. You don't deserve it. 1348 00:57:48,680 --> 00:57:51,040 Speaker 3: And you look at what was the face Greg that 1349 00:57:51,120 --> 00:57:52,720 Speaker 3: just made on our usage. We could pull that up 1350 00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:53,280 Speaker 3: on a replay. 1351 00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:55,480 Speaker 4: I never want to to be around it. 1352 00:57:55,960 --> 00:57:57,760 Speaker 3: Listen, this is a bit of a straw straw man. 1353 00:57:58,120 --> 00:58:01,840 Speaker 3: Now this is your way to They'll they'll let you know. 1354 00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:04,439 Speaker 3: There was a lot of Drew don't start, Greg. 1355 00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:06,760 Speaker 4: There are massive things that happened from fan bases that 1356 00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:09,040 Speaker 4: you would say have no credence and you totally ignore this. 1357 00:58:09,080 --> 00:58:11,720 Speaker 4: One's stick sticking with you. Yeah, I have a higher bar? 1358 00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:13,040 Speaker 3: Are they in your head? Greg? 1359 00:58:15,360 --> 00:58:17,880 Speaker 2: Think about this, Greg, this is kind of smart, very 1360 00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:20,960 Speaker 2: smart of you by saying, oh, people are talking about 1361 00:58:21,080 --> 00:58:23,120 Speaker 2: Drew lock should be the starter, and then you could 1362 00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:26,200 Speaker 2: poopoo that and bury it because obviously that's ridiculous, But 1363 00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:28,400 Speaker 2: then it allows you to get away from the more 1364 00:58:28,480 --> 00:58:32,960 Speaker 2: nuanced conversation, which is statistically, Gino has not been as 1365 00:58:32,960 --> 00:58:35,280 Speaker 2: good this year as he was last year, and in 1366 00:58:35,320 --> 00:58:37,880 Speaker 2: a big spot last week, Gino was unable to get 1367 00:58:37,920 --> 00:58:40,640 Speaker 2: the job done. And I'm not saying I'm not saying 1368 00:58:40,680 --> 00:58:43,040 Speaker 2: that Gino is now not the answer for them. He 1369 00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:47,400 Speaker 2: is over drew locks, certainly, But I believe there's certainly 1370 00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:49,680 Speaker 2: is something in play here, GREGI that we could be 1371 00:58:49,720 --> 00:58:52,720 Speaker 2: back on the Geno coaster a little bit. Now, that 1372 00:58:52,760 --> 00:58:55,320 Speaker 2: doesn't mean it's like the Geno coaster of the old 1373 00:58:55,720 --> 00:59:00,320 Speaker 2: Jet Stays. He's a better player, but maybe he's just 1374 00:59:00,360 --> 00:59:02,400 Speaker 2: a little more up and down this year than last year, 1375 00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:04,240 Speaker 2: which was shockingly steady for most of them. 1376 00:59:04,400 --> 00:59:05,640 Speaker 3: I think you can remove. 1377 00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:08,840 Speaker 5: I think if you're including the what's going on around him, 1378 00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:10,920 Speaker 5: he's basically the same guy. And then I look at 1379 00:59:10,920 --> 00:59:16,320 Speaker 5: the stats like completing completion percentage over expected, uh, basically 1380 00:59:16,360 --> 00:59:20,160 Speaker 5: the same. He's twelfth in that EPA plus C POE composite, 1381 00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:21,440 Speaker 5: like he's tenth in PFF. 1382 00:59:21,480 --> 00:59:23,920 Speaker 3: He was eleventh last year. Like that's exactly to me. 1383 00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:25,880 Speaker 5: Who he looks like is a guy who's not quite 1384 00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:28,520 Speaker 5: a top ten quarterback, a little outside that, but he's 1385 00:59:28,560 --> 00:59:29,200 Speaker 5: playing well. 1386 00:59:29,240 --> 00:59:31,640 Speaker 4: I just want to see how get to watch the games, 1387 00:59:32,040 --> 00:59:32,600 Speaker 4: That's what I mean. 1388 00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:39,160 Speaker 2: You just see it how the season unfolds for Seattle. Well, 1389 00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:40,240 Speaker 2: I'll make my next pick. 1390 00:59:40,280 --> 00:59:42,080 Speaker 3: If you like, Oh I thought you had something to say, 1391 00:59:42,080 --> 00:59:42,440 Speaker 3: go ahead. 1392 00:59:42,440 --> 00:59:44,760 Speaker 5: They can't go to in the division, a sneaky big game. 1393 00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:45,920 Speaker 5: They can't well they couldn't see how. 1394 00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:47,720 Speaker 4: I don't think the Cardinals can do that. All right, 1395 00:59:47,760 --> 00:59:50,560 Speaker 4: last game seven and a half there, this is a stinker. 1396 00:59:50,600 --> 00:59:53,840 Speaker 4: Green Bay at Denver, Broncos getting a point in that one, 1397 00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 4: yelling sorry it doesn't attract me. 1398 00:59:57,280 --> 00:59:57,880 Speaker 3: Have you lost? 1399 00:59:58,280 --> 01:00:03,520 Speaker 2: Because A Sessler's state your football fandom and as an analyst, 1400 01:00:03,600 --> 01:00:07,880 Speaker 2: you don't like long standing setups for teams like Aaron 1401 01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:10,400 Speaker 2: Rodgers and the Packers drove you crazy for years, and 1402 01:00:10,440 --> 01:00:13,720 Speaker 2: you did have a fascination with this new Packers earlier 1403 01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:14,120 Speaker 2: in the year. 1404 01:00:14,160 --> 01:00:15,440 Speaker 3: Is that is that by the wayside? 1405 01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:15,680 Speaker 2: Now? 1406 01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:19,080 Speaker 4: I think, like I just I don't really trust like 1407 01:00:19,160 --> 01:00:22,560 Speaker 4: the Jordan Love offense to do a lot down the 1408 01:00:22,560 --> 01:00:24,880 Speaker 4: stretch where they're going to be. They feel like they're 1409 01:00:24,880 --> 01:00:27,320 Speaker 4: merging into sort of a non story to me, that said, 1410 01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:29,440 Speaker 4: this is a great place to get right. The Broncos 1411 01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:33,720 Speaker 4: defense is an absolute car crash on ice. I think 1412 01:00:33,720 --> 01:00:36,440 Speaker 4: if you get Aaron Jones is back at practice, that 1413 01:00:36,560 --> 01:00:39,000 Speaker 4: to me is a huge factor for green Bay. They 1414 01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:40,960 Speaker 4: have not been able to run the ball. Well, they've 1415 01:00:41,160 --> 01:00:43,880 Speaker 4: really missed David Bacterry. But if you get Aaron Jones back, 1416 01:00:43,880 --> 01:00:47,880 Speaker 4: and he's special. Even in his lone appearance, he had 1417 01:00:47,920 --> 01:00:50,400 Speaker 4: a few big plays. It kind of gives Jordan Love 1418 01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:52,760 Speaker 4: and everyone else a chance to do something. So I 1419 01:00:53,040 --> 01:00:55,160 Speaker 4: want to see what happens there against a terrible defense. 1420 01:00:55,200 --> 01:00:57,520 Speaker 4: To that point, Green Bay would be back on track. 1421 01:00:57,560 --> 01:01:01,040 Speaker 4: Their last two games Jordan Love one touch down, five picks, 1422 01:01:01,480 --> 01:01:05,040 Speaker 4: fifty one point eight rating, sixteen point five points per game. 1423 01:01:05,080 --> 01:01:07,480 Speaker 4: As an offense, they've been They've taken seven sacks. I 1424 01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:09,080 Speaker 4: think back Toori has a lot to do with that. 1425 01:01:10,280 --> 01:01:12,000 Speaker 4: I don't know, if you can't beat the Broncos, you 1426 01:01:12,080 --> 01:01:12,840 Speaker 4: got big problems. 1427 01:01:12,840 --> 01:01:15,280 Speaker 3: Because I agree, we all it's like couldn't beat the Raiders. 1428 01:01:15,280 --> 01:01:16,520 Speaker 3: That to me is the same. 1429 01:01:16,680 --> 01:01:19,400 Speaker 4: Well that's why I think they're not They're they're far 1430 01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:21,959 Speaker 4: away from being special. But and I know you can't, 1431 01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:24,800 Speaker 4: like you can't critique Russell Wilson. It's like he has 1432 01:01:24,840 --> 01:01:26,800 Speaker 4: been better, et cetera. But last two games that's a 1433 01:01:27,280 --> 01:01:29,760 Speaker 4: man no no, because I think it's like if I 1434 01:01:29,760 --> 01:01:31,360 Speaker 4: think it's it's like, if you're gonna go out and 1435 01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:33,479 Speaker 4: just kill Russell Wilson, then you haven't watched him play 1436 01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:34,200 Speaker 4: like he had. 1437 01:01:34,200 --> 01:01:36,320 Speaker 3: We did, though, we did after last week game. He 1438 01:01:36,360 --> 01:01:36,880 Speaker 3: was terrible. 1439 01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:39,040 Speaker 4: The last two games, he's been terrible like the rest 1440 01:01:39,080 --> 01:01:41,240 Speaker 4: big season. Fine, I'm just saying in general, you can't 1441 01:01:41,280 --> 01:01:41,760 Speaker 4: just say. 1442 01:01:42,880 --> 01:01:45,400 Speaker 2: And you had bone heads on and Bruscyl saying, oh, 1443 01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:47,760 Speaker 2: he's been a problem. He was the problem in the 1444 01:01:47,760 --> 01:01:50,360 Speaker 2: second half against the Jets. He was the problem big 1445 01:01:50,400 --> 01:01:53,160 Speaker 2: time last week. So if he's trending downward, this actually 1446 01:01:53,240 --> 01:01:55,840 Speaker 2: could get worse for Denver, if that's possible. 1447 01:01:55,880 --> 01:01:57,680 Speaker 4: But if he's the only thing I wonder a little 1448 01:01:57,680 --> 01:02:00,280 Speaker 4: bit is like do you keep them like in if 1449 01:02:00,280 --> 01:02:02,360 Speaker 4: he gets worse because you are trying to get like 1450 01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:05,600 Speaker 4: one of the two or three college quarterbacks. I don't know, No, 1451 01:02:05,720 --> 01:02:07,320 Speaker 4: I don't think that's well. 1452 01:02:07,360 --> 01:02:10,640 Speaker 5: First of all, you start saying that they would tank 1453 01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:12,400 Speaker 5: by not playing Jared's Didham. 1454 01:02:12,400 --> 01:02:15,680 Speaker 3: I mean that feels well, stretch. I'm not seeing Larretts Didam. 1455 01:02:15,680 --> 01:02:17,760 Speaker 4: You're not sitting on uh, you're not sitting on Kurt 1456 01:02:17,800 --> 01:02:18,520 Speaker 4: Warner back there. 1457 01:02:18,560 --> 01:02:19,000 Speaker 3: I get that. 1458 01:02:19,040 --> 01:02:22,120 Speaker 4: But like Russell Wilson the experiment, there's no way he's 1459 01:02:22,160 --> 01:02:24,640 Speaker 4: their starter next year on any levels. So it's like, 1460 01:02:24,640 --> 01:02:25,480 Speaker 4: what are you doing with him? 1461 01:02:25,520 --> 01:02:27,960 Speaker 3: Now? Did you guys hear that? What you can do. 1462 01:02:28,080 --> 01:02:31,120 Speaker 2: Did you guys hear that Jerry Judy and Courtland Sutton 1463 01:02:31,160 --> 01:02:32,000 Speaker 2: are on the trade block? 1464 01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:35,400 Speaker 3: You cannot wait until and they have been since like 1465 01:02:35,560 --> 01:02:36,840 Speaker 3: Y two, K, Well. 1466 01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:39,440 Speaker 5: They try they Here's the thing, Denver tried to trade 1467 01:02:39,440 --> 01:02:42,080 Speaker 5: them this offseason and when no one really wanted him 1468 01:02:42,240 --> 01:02:44,960 Speaker 5: at any reasonable price, then they had to pretend like 1469 01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:47,520 Speaker 5: they didn't try to trade him. And this is like 1470 01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:52,440 Speaker 5: from the Sean Payton media playbook, where look, he's got 1471 01:02:52,800 --> 01:02:59,880 Speaker 5: more national media in his pocket than any coach since 1472 01:02:59,880 --> 01:03:04,320 Speaker 5: I haven't done this job. He he owns the media 1473 01:03:04,720 --> 01:03:08,479 Speaker 5: and controls the narrative around him better I would say 1474 01:03:08,480 --> 01:03:12,880 Speaker 5: than any coach since his former boss Bill Parcells and 1475 01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:17,680 Speaker 5: him presiding over one of the most disappointing, poorly run 1476 01:03:17,720 --> 01:03:21,040 Speaker 5: teams in the NFL is a real test for that 1477 01:03:21,320 --> 01:03:24,240 Speaker 5: theory and the professionalism of everyone. Ever it's correct, Like 1478 01:03:24,320 --> 01:03:27,760 Speaker 5: I know it's getting on Sean Pitton for what about 1479 01:03:28,400 --> 01:03:29,080 Speaker 5: He's like, I'm with. 1480 01:03:29,160 --> 01:03:31,160 Speaker 3: You, like, up until the season, he's getting killed by 1481 01:03:31,160 --> 01:03:34,120 Speaker 3: people right now, was getting killed in the place. 1482 01:03:34,200 --> 01:03:36,200 Speaker 2: You know what, He's a laughing bock right now. But 1483 01:03:36,240 --> 01:03:39,840 Speaker 2: it's football fans and social media. I'm sure it's also 1484 01:03:39,920 --> 01:03:42,160 Speaker 2: been a good coach. It's not like we're like it's king. 1485 01:03:42,840 --> 01:03:44,800 Speaker 3: He's getting destroyed this year. 1486 01:03:45,760 --> 01:03:48,080 Speaker 2: But I guess to the point, and I don't follow 1487 01:03:48,120 --> 01:03:49,600 Speaker 2: it in the way that you do, Greg, So I 1488 01:03:49,680 --> 01:03:50,360 Speaker 2: can't tell you. 1489 01:03:50,440 --> 01:03:53,040 Speaker 3: I'm curious what the names are if you want to share. 1490 01:03:52,800 --> 01:03:55,720 Speaker 4: Them, every single one. But who's parenting for him right now? 1491 01:03:55,760 --> 01:03:57,800 Speaker 4: Like who's saying, actually, you guys are wrong Sean Payne. 1492 01:03:58,440 --> 01:03:59,920 Speaker 4: It's not it's not really the opinion. 1493 01:04:00,440 --> 01:04:04,959 Speaker 5: It's more like how the news is presented, like even 1494 01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:08,840 Speaker 5: the Judy Sutton stuff, Like there are ways that you 1495 01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:12,240 Speaker 5: report on what's going on inside of the building. I 1496 01:04:12,240 --> 01:04:16,120 Speaker 5: think that doesn't happen with Denver because look, I think 1497 01:04:16,160 --> 01:04:18,280 Speaker 5: he's got everyone like I wouldn't. 1498 01:04:18,280 --> 01:04:19,760 Speaker 3: I don't even need to single out a name. 1499 01:04:19,920 --> 01:04:23,120 Speaker 5: If there's someone powerful in the media, Sean Payton has 1500 01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:25,760 Speaker 5: a favorable relationship that I think gets him better. 1501 01:04:25,880 --> 01:04:28,360 Speaker 2: Okay, I mean, all right, we'll see what happens. I mean, 1502 01:04:28,400 --> 01:04:31,080 Speaker 2: here's the other thing. It ain't twenty ten anymore, right, 1503 01:04:31,160 --> 01:04:34,560 Speaker 2: And he might have these great relationships, but if the 1504 01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:37,960 Speaker 2: team is terrible, and the and the roster is not 1505 01:04:38,040 --> 01:04:40,760 Speaker 2: getting better, and they the whole thing's gonna crumble. It 1506 01:04:40,760 --> 01:04:43,320 Speaker 2: doesn't matter who you're in bed with in the or 1507 01:04:43,360 --> 01:04:45,120 Speaker 2: in cohoots with in the media. 1508 01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:47,000 Speaker 3: Uh tughsich for Broncos. 1509 01:04:47,120 --> 01:04:49,520 Speaker 5: It's a big test for Lafleur too, who's I think 1510 01:04:49,560 --> 01:04:53,840 Speaker 5: at as discouraging a couple games as he's had since 1511 01:04:53,880 --> 01:04:57,200 Speaker 5: his first year as coach in in Green Bay because 1512 01:04:57,240 --> 01:04:59,960 Speaker 5: they started off okay and they've looked like, you know, 1513 01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:01,880 Speaker 5: one of the worst offenses in the league the last 1514 01:05:01,880 --> 01:05:04,520 Speaker 5: couple of weeks. And so here here's a matchup where 1515 01:05:04,520 --> 01:05:06,640 Speaker 5: you should take advantage of we are getting healthier, where 1516 01:05:06,640 --> 01:05:08,680 Speaker 5: we are coming off of by I'm not giving up 1517 01:05:08,720 --> 01:05:10,520 Speaker 5: on this Packers team totally. I wasn't that high on 1518 01:05:10,600 --> 01:05:12,240 Speaker 5: him to begin with, But I just think they at 1519 01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:15,840 Speaker 5: least have a chance to develop during the season into 1520 01:05:15,880 --> 01:05:18,600 Speaker 5: an interesting watch with an interesting team. 1521 01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:21,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what I mean. And it's the real test. 1522 01:05:21,040 --> 01:05:23,600 Speaker 3: And if Aaron Jones is playing, uh, run the rock. 1523 01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:26,439 Speaker 2: If aj Dillon is gonna be in tandem or leading, 1524 01:05:26,920 --> 01:05:28,880 Speaker 2: run the Rock, because you could just wear that team 1525 01:05:28,920 --> 01:05:29,919 Speaker 2: down in the second half. 1526 01:05:29,960 --> 01:05:33,280 Speaker 3: You see it every week, all right? That is the draft. 1527 01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:38,280 Speaker 3: Anything else to hit before we say goodbye? 1528 01:05:38,760 --> 01:05:40,520 Speaker 4: Well, we were waiting to see if Mark was gonna 1529 01:05:40,560 --> 01:05:41,800 Speaker 4: flip off his lock, but did. 1530 01:05:41,720 --> 01:05:44,080 Speaker 3: You have something he didn't do it? Well, this is 1531 01:05:44,120 --> 01:05:45,800 Speaker 3: the moment. This is the moment. 1532 01:05:45,560 --> 01:05:49,520 Speaker 4: Mark, all right, I'm gonna do it, get the locks. 1533 01:05:49,760 --> 01:05:51,920 Speaker 4: If I hadn't brought it to this now you know, 1534 01:05:51,960 --> 01:05:54,120 Speaker 4: I've been mulling this for a while. Yeah, defensive, Look, 1535 01:05:54,440 --> 01:05:56,320 Speaker 4: I do think one thing with the locks. I just 1536 01:05:56,360 --> 01:05:58,840 Speaker 4: definitely like I tried to not overthink it, but of 1537 01:05:58,840 --> 01:06:00,280 Speaker 4: course I one warning. 1538 01:06:00,400 --> 01:06:04,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, we've all been there, right, you jump out of 1539 01:06:04,640 --> 01:06:07,720 Speaker 2: a lock, You're almost going through double the pain because 1540 01:06:07,800 --> 01:06:10,240 Speaker 2: you're tracking that first game. Should I have locked it? 1541 01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:13,400 Speaker 2: What if that team wins then the new team loses? 1542 01:06:13,480 --> 01:06:16,000 Speaker 2: And yeah, I mean you are just living through it. 1543 01:06:16,080 --> 01:06:18,520 Speaker 2: You're going through war in your mind. And now we 1544 01:06:18,600 --> 01:06:19,320 Speaker 2: throw it to Mark. 1545 01:06:19,400 --> 01:06:24,000 Speaker 4: It's yeah, decision twenty twenty us about that situation, which 1546 01:06:24,040 --> 01:06:26,120 Speaker 4: you know we've been through. It's more about the show 1547 01:06:26,160 --> 01:06:28,560 Speaker 4: and what I think creates an element of spice. And 1548 01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:31,720 Speaker 4: it's like, you know, Greg wouldn't go take on the 1549 01:06:31,760 --> 01:06:35,840 Speaker 4: West Brothers a week ago, which was a little suspect 1550 01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:38,560 Speaker 4: you know what I was that that wasn't that wasn't 1551 01:06:38,560 --> 01:06:39,240 Speaker 4: thinking about the show. 1552 01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:41,040 Speaker 5: Why would I be taking a team that I didn't 1553 01:06:41,040 --> 01:06:42,880 Speaker 5: feel that strong was gonna win, and I'm glad I 1554 01:06:42,920 --> 01:06:44,640 Speaker 5: didn't because by the way they lost, although they. 1555 01:06:44,520 --> 01:06:48,640 Speaker 2: Didn't all your media people that are all friends and 1556 01:06:48,680 --> 01:06:51,200 Speaker 2: love Geno Smith, that felt like a time to get 1557 01:06:51,240 --> 01:06:53,640 Speaker 2: behind the Great Seattle Empire. 1558 01:06:53,960 --> 01:06:56,160 Speaker 3: Are you arguing that I should have taken a loss. 1559 01:06:56,920 --> 01:06:59,919 Speaker 2: Well, it clearly was hindsight, it was the right move. 1560 01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:04,080 Speaker 2: But but point being as a showman. As a showman, I. 1561 01:07:03,360 --> 01:07:06,240 Speaker 4: I think you know, we we we've enjoyed covering these 1562 01:07:06,240 --> 01:07:09,960 Speaker 4: Monday night games night after night, yes, or week after week, 1563 01:07:10,080 --> 01:07:12,800 Speaker 4: and uh, of course I'm gonna take Greg in a 1564 01:07:12,800 --> 01:07:13,360 Speaker 4: little lock up. 1565 01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:15,880 Speaker 3: This is Sunday night. Then oh we'll we cover Sunday. 1566 01:07:15,680 --> 01:07:18,960 Speaker 4: Night too, but it's week we come back into the 1567 01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:21,400 Speaker 4: studio to cover Sunday night after we do the whole show, 1568 01:07:21,400 --> 01:07:24,120 Speaker 4: and like, uh, I'm gonna take the Dolphins. I I 1569 01:07:24,160 --> 01:07:26,560 Speaker 4: think it's you know, a little suspect, but I like it. 1570 01:07:26,600 --> 01:07:29,880 Speaker 2: And in fact, uh kind of tying it all together 1571 01:07:30,360 --> 01:07:32,840 Speaker 2: when my nine year old son Jack and we were 1572 01:07:32,840 --> 01:07:34,600 Speaker 2: going through the schedule and I was like, who should 1573 01:07:34,600 --> 01:07:36,760 Speaker 2: I lock this week? And you know, oh, I was 1574 01:07:36,800 --> 01:07:38,640 Speaker 2: talking about rightly, but I was trying to explain it 1575 01:07:38,680 --> 01:07:41,200 Speaker 2: to him. He kept on pointing at the Dolphins. Well, 1576 01:07:41,240 --> 01:07:45,320 Speaker 2: I got to pick the Dolphins, and again I had 1577 01:07:45,320 --> 01:07:49,480 Speaker 2: too much respect, uh for Philly's operation and being pissed 1578 01:07:49,680 --> 01:07:53,160 Speaker 2: quite frankly after what happened in week six to do that. 1579 01:07:53,320 --> 01:07:54,800 Speaker 3: But I think they will. 1580 01:07:54,880 --> 01:07:57,600 Speaker 4: There's another thing, like, there's another scene I can imagine 1581 01:07:57,600 --> 01:08:00,560 Speaker 4: that doesn't mean this will happen where it's like, uh oh, 1582 01:08:00,720 --> 01:08:03,280 Speaker 4: Eagles back against the backs, up against the wall big time. 1583 01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:04,440 Speaker 4: Now two straight losses. 1584 01:08:04,680 --> 01:08:06,480 Speaker 3: You know what this is? Everyone acts like the Dolphins 1585 01:08:06,520 --> 01:08:08,040 Speaker 3: can't go on the road and handle the business. 1586 01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:11,960 Speaker 2: Miamis if you win a lock off with Rosenthal, I 1587 01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:13,440 Speaker 2: mean right takes you out here. 1588 01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:15,760 Speaker 3: He's up three, and that's a tough spot. Right you 1589 01:08:15,840 --> 01:08:16,120 Speaker 3: take him. 1590 01:08:16,280 --> 01:08:18,360 Speaker 2: This is a major momentum swing. And I would not 1591 01:08:18,400 --> 01:08:20,280 Speaker 2: bet against you to win the whole thing if the 1592 01:08:20,640 --> 01:08:21,519 Speaker 2: take care of business on. 1593 01:08:21,479 --> 01:08:24,759 Speaker 5: Sunday, although I would also not, you know, bet against 1594 01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:28,559 Speaker 5: an extremely dark Sessler not even enjoying the Brown's win 1595 01:08:29,080 --> 01:08:31,799 Speaker 5: if the Browns happened to win early and then. 1596 01:08:31,680 --> 01:08:35,600 Speaker 3: This falls apart. The news for us though, is that sports. 1597 01:08:36,920 --> 01:08:37,120 Speaker 2: Die. 1598 01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:42,519 Speaker 4: By the way, that was not from today's show. I 1599 01:08:42,560 --> 01:08:44,400 Speaker 4: don't wish death upon it. That was when I was 1600 01:08:44,439 --> 01:08:47,040 Speaker 4: disrespected before the you know, I'd come.
