That's how the Chiefs won games every single 13 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:43,319 Speaker 2: week last year and so far this year, it's how 14 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 2: they've lost games. 15 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 1: We need to talk about it. 16 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 2: It is the first zero and two start for Patrick Mahomes. 17 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 1: Ready for it since high school, since high school. 18 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 2: Good evening, good late evening, good early evening, wherever you 19 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 2: may be in these Fox Sports radio studios.

And of course they were favored 41 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 3: because the Saints are the Saints. But when you have 42 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 3: a backup situation going and and you know your backup 43 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 3: is an ex starter who may or may not have, 44 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 3: you know, been good enough for his team. Now, Mac 45 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 3: Jones is a Pro Bowl He was a Pro bowler 46 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 3: in New England before they decided to let anyone be 47 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 3: the offensive coordinator. A couple guys who had no business 48 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 3: calling offensive plays. And he you know, he did not 49 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 3: benefit from that at all. Right, it set him back. 50 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 3: But to see him come out and we heard that 51 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 3: brock Purdy was going to be out at least this week, 52 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 3: but maybe a couple of weeks, and he had an 53 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 3: opportunity to come out and then to be able to 54 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 3: throw the ball thirty nine times on the road. For 55 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 3: whatever reason this Saints decided, Hey, we not dying today. 56 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 3: They came to play Spencer Ratler also played well and 57 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 3: then he goes on to throw three touchdowns and no interceptions, yes, 58 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 3: and almost two hundred and eighty yards passing. So for me, 59 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 3: that really stood out because we've been saying this all 60 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 3: off season, ever since the schedules come out. The San 61 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 3: Francisco forty nine ers they have a good opportunity number one, 62 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 3: to take hold of the NFC because or at least 63 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 3: their division, because they have the weakest schedule now. Injury 64 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 3: injuries can derail that in a heartbeat. And it stood 65 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 3: out because they're two to zero. I know you're excited. 66 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 3: They fought it. It was ugly last week, brought Prety 67 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 3: through a ass you've never should have thrown. They end 68 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 3: up winning that in the last few seconds of that 69 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 3: game last week, and then you have your backup coming 70 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 3: in on the road and getting to win. What this 71 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 3: is telling me is this team is different from last 72 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 3: year because when they dealt with injuries last year, it 73 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 3: was just a dumpster fire. And the resilience of this 74 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 3: team combined the early resilience combined with their lack of 75 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,840 Speaker 3: strength of schedule bodes well for the San Francisco forty 76 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 3: nine ers when they started getting these guys back healthy. 77 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 2: This is why sometimes, and I know it's been a 78 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 2: big thing in our business the last few weeks because 79 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 2: Ryan Clark and blah blah blah and people doing the 80 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 2: whole like don't you talk to people who've never played 81 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,479 Speaker 2: before like that, Like we're not allowed to talk about 82 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 2: the sport. And I support that. Of course we can 83 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 2: talk about the sport. Everybody brings their own perspective. There 84 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:53,719 Speaker 2: are moments that I feel get highlighted when we get 85 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 2: the opportunity to talk to people who have actually done 86 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 2: these things, because there is an appreciation sometimes for things 87 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 2: that fans will look at and dismiss and those who've 88 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 2: done it realize that's not to be dismissed. I'll tell 89 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 2: you something I said and look, it got made fun 90 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 2: of for it because. 91 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,480 Speaker 1: That's how sports radio works. 92 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 2: But something I said on Thursday or Friday of this 93 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 2: week in the Bay Area, and I spent the whole 94 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 2: week saying, I expect nothing. Everyone's kind of doing the 95 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 2: Oh Mac Jones has played before, he'll come in and 96 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 2: he'll look good because it's Kyle's system, and I'm like, maybe, 97 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 2: but like, I'm not. 98 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: Counting on that. 99 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 2: This is hard. This is very hard. There's no Brock, 100 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 2: there's no Kittle. We didn't know if Juwan was gonna play. 101 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 2: You're on the road for the second week in a row. 102 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure the other team pays their players. There's 103 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 2: all these things going on, and I'm like, you can't 104 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 2: act like. 105 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: This is just so turnkey. 106 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 2: And so what I said was with everything that's going on, 107 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 2: all the adversity there's facing, and we didn't even know 108 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,239 Speaker 2: the university they'd faced. Once the game started, Kyle ustik 109 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 2: a concussion, find out that Trent Williams was planning to 110 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 2: not play today until he got to the building. 111 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,280 Speaker 1: Like, there's a lot going on. 112 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 2: So all I said was, if they come out of 113 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 2: this thing with all that has taken place, two to 114 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 2: zero on the road, I am. 115 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: Going to be very very impressed. 116 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 2: And I am, and I don't think many people are 117 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 2: going to be because I'm already on Twitter getting the 118 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 2: whole like relaxed dog, it's the Saints, and I'm like, 119 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 2: it doesn't matter who that team is. The forty nine 120 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 2: ers stand to be much better at the end of 121 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,479 Speaker 2: the year than they are now. If they can be 122 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 2: blessed with health, all those rookies on the defensive side, 123 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 2: in theory will be better. They can gel as a team, 124 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 2: get their receiving core back, they have a chance to 125 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:58,919 Speaker 2: be better. And now they've got two road wins in 126 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 2: the back pocket before for any of that starts that 127 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 2: cannot be undersold. And oh, by the way, I brow up, 128 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 2: maybe the Seahawks team they beat last week. 129 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 3: Ah, maybe that team wasn't that bad, not that bad. 130 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: Maybe that team wasn't that bad. 131 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 2: I don't know if you all watch football today in Pittsburgh. 132 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 2: So I'm with you, man, like I am going to 133 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 2: be trumpeting all week. Do not under sell what has 134 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 2: just taken place with the forty nine ers start, even 135 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 2: if you want to call it ugly, call it ugly. 136 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the NFL games are so hard to win. 137 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 3: I've been on great teams, I've been on bad teams. 138 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 3: I've been on okay teams. The one thing I know 139 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 3: about every single team I've been on, you have to 140 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 3: have been able to collectively lock in and really focus 141 00:07:55,400 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 3: in on the objective at hand. And that's any given week, 142 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 3: no matter who's hurt, who's playing, who's there, who's not, 143 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 3: you have to lock in and and really put it 144 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 3: all on the line. And when I see a team 145 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 3: missing key components, the number one key component in your quarterback, 146 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 3: their number one of receiving weapon and be able to 147 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 3: go on the road, it doesn't really matter who they're playing, 148 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 3: because it's so that in itself is destabilizing to a team. 149 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 3: And whenever you can raise your head above the fray 150 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 3: and come away with the victory on situations, I have 151 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 3: to take my eye of my hat off to you, 152 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,079 Speaker 3: and I gotta keep my eye on you. And because 153 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 3: there's something to be said about resilience, there's something to 154 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 3: be said about what a win like that means in 155 00:08:54,679 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 3: the locker room. Right, we didn't have all our pieces, Yes, right, 156 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 3: we did not have all our pieces, and we came 157 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 3: away with the victory. And so that is call momentum. 158 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 2: Tell you what absolutely like, I'm with you and we 159 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 2: can extend it well, be beyond the one team that 160 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 2: we're talking about. Absolutely, division in which they play my 161 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 2: friend is seven and one. Yea, And they're not allowed 162 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 2: to be eight to zero because two of them played 163 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 2: each other last week, so they are seven and one, 164 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 2: and you can Titans and Saints, and the Saints are 165 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 2: two of the losses in fact, and Carolina Panthers and 166 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 2: all the teams that the NFC West has beaten seven 167 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 2: and one, seven and one with a bunch of them, 168 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 2: a bunch of them have been on the road, including 169 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 2: what the Seahawks did today, what the forty nine ers 170 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 2: have done both days, all of that. So you and 171 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 2: I both said it a few weeks ago that NFC 172 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 2: West might not have the highest but it's got a 173 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 2: really high floor because I don't think any of the 174 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 2: four teams are bad. There's no dormat where you get 175 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 2: your two games against that team that doesn't exist. That's 176 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 2: been proven already through these first two weeks, and so 177 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 2: that division is going to be a war all year long. 178 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I think you know the team coming out 179 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 3: of that division will be blood. It'll be two teams 180 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 3: coming out of that division presumably for the playoffs. It's 181 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 3: it's I'm telling you the forty nine ers and forty 182 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 3: nine or faithfuls should be happy. They should be a 183 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 3: static because they know they're going to get these pieces back. 184 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 3: They know they will get healthy, and when that happens, 185 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 3: they'll already all of those guys in backup roles are playing. 186 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 3: That's what you call adding depth to your roster. So 187 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 3: if something does happen down the road as we get 188 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 3: into the you know, the groundhog days of the NFL 189 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 3: second half, presumably, and someone goes down, the team has 190 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 3: faith that it can win games on the road or 191 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 3: at home without key valuable pieces. That's what it's all about. 192 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 2: We'll hop back to the Chiefs and Mahomes in just 193 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 2: a second, Bills and Ravens two. We'll get you ready 194 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 2: for the game that's kicking off in eight minutes. One 195 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 2: more thing on that forty nine er game today. This 196 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,679 Speaker 2: is a little bit of an intricate deal. I know 197 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 2: you'll get what I'm about to say. 198 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: That was the perfect way for Mac. 199 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 2: Jones to play for the health of the entire discussion. 200 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 2: And here's what I mean. I don't know how many 201 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 2: of you watched the entire game. He came out wobbly. 202 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 2: The stats that you referenced were very good. He made 203 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 2: some big time throws. He also had moments where he 204 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 2: kind of looked like a backup. He doesn't have the 205 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 2: pocket presence of the legs that some others around the league, 206 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 2: including the starter with the forty nine ers have. He 207 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 2: fumbled at one point, kept the same ain'ts in the 208 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 2: football game. 209 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: So here's what I mean by that. 210 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 2: He played really well and I was impressed, and he 211 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 2: showed that they've elevated their backup position and he can 212 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 2: win a football game while also not making anybody think 213 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 2: that the star. Thank you, thank you. And if you 214 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 2: think that, then you're a box score baby. That's my 215 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 2: that's my take. If you think that, all you did 216 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 2: was look at the box score. If you watch that 217 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 2: football game, you saw the moments where the forty nine 218 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 2: ers were missing their starting QB. But he also did 219 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 2: well enough and in the situation that he's thrown into 220 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 2: week two in a new system, beautiful performance. 221 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: Beautiful performance. 222 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,560 Speaker 2: And like you just said, the Niners need to feel 223 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 2: not bulletproof, but they need to feel a lot, a 224 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 2: lot more depth than what they had last year. 225 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think when you come off a year like 226 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 3: you had last year for a team that's been historically good, 227 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 3: especially the last four years prior to last year, then 228 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 3: you have questions. When people start getting hurt. The first 229 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 3: thing you do is go to your your default setting 230 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 3: of oh no, here we go again. But when you 231 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 3: can come That's why I said keeping your head above 232 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,720 Speaker 3: the frame. When you can come out of that and 233 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 3: be like, oh no, this is different, this isn't this 234 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 3: isn't last year, and you can start with adversity and 235 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:34,839 Speaker 3: with wins. It does tremendous, tremendous things in that locker room. 236 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:39,079 Speaker 3: That added value of winning like this is unbelievable, especially 237 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 3: on the road. 238 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: Mahomes is zero and two. 239 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 3: Oh my goodness. 240 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 1: The Chiefs now. I'm gonna give them a little grace. 241 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 2: They have played two opponents I think are both quality opponents. 242 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 2: I think the Chargers are a very good team. The 243 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,079 Speaker 2: Eagles are obviously the defending champs. 244 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 3: I can't wait to get into this on these. 245 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: They already had to go to a different cune. 246 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 2: Oh, they played very close one score football games. They 247 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 2: have got their own adversity at their receiver position that 248 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:12,840 Speaker 2: they are popular with the. 249 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes is there. 250 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 3: Okay, cool, cool. 251 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes is there. I think he threw for at 252 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 2: least seventy or eighty yards today. What was the final talent. 253 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 3: Murder? 254 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 2: It's like late third quarter that I was on red Z, 255 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes is throwing for sixty yards. I'm like, what 256 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 2: what's going on in this football game? 257 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 3: Guess what the uh? And this is a direct correlation. 258 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 3: Guess what the Kansas City Chiefs were last year? They 259 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 3: were a team that won seventeen straight one score games, 260 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 3: and they won him in. 261 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 2: A crazy, ridiculous fashion, Just ridiculous, constant, ridiculous. 262 00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 3: What I know to be a fact is team teams 263 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 3: that do that the next year struggle in winning those games. 264 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, not sustainable. 265 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 3: It is completely not sustainable. It just so happens that 266 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 3: they've lost two one score games back to back to start. 267 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 1: Just so happens. 268 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 3: Just so happens. 269 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 1: All right, more on that. 270 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 2: Plus, we get you ready for the Kirk Cousins Bowl, 271 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 2: in which he's not playing. 272 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: The Falcons and the. 273 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 2: Vikings are about to get together on Sunday night football. 274 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 2: We're gonna watch it together.

I like that. 312 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 3: I'm curious even though they're one and zero, I'm really 313 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 3: curious to really see just who they are and what 314 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,880 Speaker 3: they're about to bring to the table this year. It's 315 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 3: jury still out in my opinion on Jam McCarthy. 316 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:47,480 Speaker 1: Yep. 317 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 3: So it's one of those Okay, you played a Bears 318 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 3: team in a tight game who got fifty one put 319 00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 3: on them today? So you know, I just want to 320 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 3: know who the Minnesota Vikings are. We know they have 321 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 3: an excellent roster, we know they have excellent coaching, but 322 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 3: can they be can we get a rehash of Sam 323 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,920 Speaker 3: Darnold and JJ McCarthy a little bit younger, a little 324 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 3: bit more athletic. Is that possible? 325 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 2: While you're talking obviously a Vikings fans like, can we 326 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 2: talk about the defense before we talk about the offense, 327 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:38,120 Speaker 2: because the Falcons have the ball. They handed it off 328 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 2: to Bijon Robinson twice and they're already down there practically 329 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 2: to the red zone. 330 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,160 Speaker 1: So the red zone the Falcons. 331 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, Falcons are coming in hot after two plays, them 332 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 2: moving down the field. 333 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,160 Speaker 1: And I'm with you, I do not. 334 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:57,119 Speaker 2: I do not think that that win in Chicago last 335 00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:01,200 Speaker 2: week tells me a whole lot of Vikings at all. 336 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 2: I mean, first of all, they're getting they're getting punked 337 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,400 Speaker 2: around for two and a half quarters at least now 338 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 2: game goes four quarters. I give them credit for coming 339 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 2: back and rallying the way they did. But yes, to me, 340 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:19,879 Speaker 2: week two is always your best informational week of the 341 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,960 Speaker 2: entire NFL season because you have to you have to 342 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,640 Speaker 2: grab everything you saw week one, and then you've got 343 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 2: to see all of those teams do something else against 344 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,919 Speaker 2: someone else, and then you're able to kind of go, oh, 345 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 2: that thing that happened the first week actually meant something 346 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,119 Speaker 2: or it didn't. And as you just pointed out watching 347 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 2: the Bears play football today that certainly we're doing yeah 348 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,719 Speaker 2: something and that that to a degree, whether anybody likes 349 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:47,920 Speaker 2: it or not, it downgrades a little bit of what 350 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:49,440 Speaker 2: we saw from the Vikings. 351 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 1: I also thought Atlanta outplayed Tampa for the majority. 352 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 3: Michael Pennix, Yeah, out play Baker May. 353 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:57,679 Speaker 2: Absolutely and they So it was kind of like the 354 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 2: Vikings got outplayed in won, the Falcon outplayed someone else 355 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 2: and lost. So let's see these two get together again. 356 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 2: And I do I like Atlanta. I know they're an 357 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,360 Speaker 2: underdog tonight. I like them to win this game. 358 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 3: Out right, And so going into this game, I guess 359 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 3: it's safe to say there's a question mark because there's 360 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 3: a question mark on both sides, like who are they? 361 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 3: And you start to discover who teams are as early 362 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,680 Speaker 3: as the second week. The first week it's a one 363 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:29,159 Speaker 3: off anything, you know, it's just it's like that, the 364 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 3: NFL is like that. But the second week, if you 365 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 3: can stack consistency and you okay, okay, they're doing this consistently, 366 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:42,439 Speaker 3: they're not doing that consistently. Like there's several teams that 367 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:46,359 Speaker 3: played today where I'm like, oh, even though they won 368 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 3: last year, I see glaring holes in either the offensive 369 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 3: side of the ball or the defensive side of the ball. 370 00:20:55,000 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 3: And you know, most notably the Pittsburgh Steelers. Like that 371 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 3: to me is wild. 372 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 1: You just that was my team that I was referring 373 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:09,479 Speaker 1: to earlier. 374 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 2: Yep, when I said there was one football team this 375 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:17,440 Speaker 2: week who Week one, everybody went hey, okay, And then 376 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,920 Speaker 2: week two, I was like, never mind, I'm I'm out 377 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:24,919 Speaker 2: on this party, and the Steelers are it. And and 378 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 2: there's all kinds of evidence in multiple directions. There's the 379 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 2: game that they won last week, and then what did 380 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 2: that team do today? Well, the Jets certainly look like 381 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 2: what they look like the Jets again, So if the 382 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 2: Jets are actually still the Jets, then what was it 383 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:40,400 Speaker 2: that Pittsburgh actually was. 384 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 1: Doing last week? Grinding out a win over that team? 385 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 2: Then you come home for your home opener, your home opener, 386 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:53,120 Speaker 2: and traditionally a vaunted defense. This is the Steelers defense 387 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,119 Speaker 2: we're talking about, and they have now been carved up 388 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 2: by Justin Fields and the Jets, even though they won, 389 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 2: and then carved up by Sam Donald and the Seahawks, 390 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 2: who couldn't even get to mid teens last week in 391 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 2: their home opener. I just think there's there's a checklist 392 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 2: going on there. We're not done yet, but that's a 393 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 2: lot of evidence that the Steelers are not in a 394 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 2: very good spot. 395 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's something off, and it's unlike the Steelers, but 396 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 3: in that division, if you can't play defense a little bit, brother, 397 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 3: this thing is gonna be over before it even gets started. 398 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 3: And that's they did all of this to get Aaron 399 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 3: Rodgers in and he's coming in, he's trying to sling 400 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 3: the ball around the yard. But the fact that they can't, 401 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 3: they can't stop anybody. Yep, Like it's bad. 402 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 2: Right, They're just like they're just like the Bengals. It's 403 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 2: like the Bengals with a worse offense is basically what 404 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 2: they look like to me so far. 405 00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:04,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's you can't, I mean, as good as they've 406 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 3: been historically, you can't give up one hundred yard rushers 407 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:17,919 Speaker 3: back to back. It just it throws off your equilibrium. 408 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 3: Just like whenever we're a minute long and now I'm 409 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 3: discombobulated because Steve Dezeger should be giving us this smooth, 410 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,160 Speaker 3: sultry voice right about now. 411 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 6: Good evening, gentlemen, and you kind of reference this the 412 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 6: Kansas City Chiefs.

I'm trying to figure it out. 511 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 2: So I'm a Lions fan. I've never won a damn thing. 512 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 2: I appreciate the hell out of stuff that usually is, 513 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 2: even just if it gets to be or B plus level, 514 00:28:56,640 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 2: which hit Jared Goff's name in every city we've visited 515 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 2: it as if he's Joe Montana or Tom Brady, even 516 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 2: though he's good like good player, but would chant his 517 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 2: name like crazy, even though what has happened when he's 518 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 2: taken us to the playoffs. They've lost, They've lost football games, 519 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 2: they blew a seventeen point lead in the NFC title 520 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 2: game two years ago, et cetera, et cetera. 521 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 1: Ben Johnson has offered a promotion. 522 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,479 Speaker 7: Would you have to take you have to take that? 523 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 1: You? I don't what are we booing? What's being don 524 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 1: I don't understand what he did? What did he do? 525 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, not him personally that the offense didn't look good 526 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 6: in the first game without him, and the Lions, of 527 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 6: course had the NFC's best offense last year, and where 528 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 6: the conference's top passing team and where the league's top 529 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 6: scoring team thirty three points a game, and now they 530 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 6: don't have him. That's all I can figure. It's just 531 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 6: his absence. But to actually Boo his appearance on the 532 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:53,720 Speaker 6: field pregame raised an eyebrow. 533 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 3: Yeah that makes sense to you, he from, No, it 534 00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 3: doesn't make sense. And it also doesn't make sense, uh 535 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 3: me about the mechanics of quarterback sneak fourth down JJ McCarthy. No, 536 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 3: that was territory and you fumble the snap. 537 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 7: Fourth and one no gain? 538 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 3: Why we can even go forward in your own territory 539 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 3: this building. 540 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 6: Which means Atlanta can take over. Give it to Robinson again. 541 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 6: He's got five carries for over fifty yards already. 542 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 3: They're in score. There can score points right now. If 543 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 3: they don't gain another yard, they have another three points. 544 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 6: They have a new kicker tonight. Remember after losing last 545 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 6: week at the end, young Waykup was not cut, but 546 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 6: he just isn't. 547 00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 2: Active deactivated for Parker Romo, who celebrated as if it 548 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 2: was his birthday on his field goal attempt a few 549 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 2: minutes ago, which was a short one that barely went 550 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 2: into I. 551 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:53,560 Speaker 6: Medi eight yards of barely meanwily. I talked about the 552 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 6: Patriots kicker. You think the Patriots could use John Parker 553 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 6: Romo right now? 554 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 2: I mean a lot of teams could use. You want 555 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 2: to know what I do know Dallas doesn't need a kicker. 556 00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 3: They do not good ward. I like, what is there? 557 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 3: Four yards? The team sixty. 558 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 7: Four yards the final regulation? 559 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 2: Oh my god, that was one of the greatest kicks 560 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 2: I've ever seen in my life. 561 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 6: And when they got the ball again in overtime, You're thinking, Okay, 562 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 6: he's already made it from sixty four, so they almost 563 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 6: don't need a first down here, right, And you know 564 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 6: they got within fifty inside fifty and they won it. 565 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 6: But you know, you and I both know he probably 566 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,280 Speaker 6: could have made another sixty four yarder. It's such an 567 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:38,480 Speaker 6: easy swing of the leg with him. And didn't he 568 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 6: make a sixty five about a year ago, So it's 569 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 6: not a It. 570 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 2: Would have been good from seventy five if the thing 571 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 2: was it was like it flew well above the crossbar 572 00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 2: in meantime, I'm I'm for sure. The Colts coaching staff 573 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 2: watched the Cowboy game because at the end of their game, 574 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:59,400 Speaker 2: they're down by two points and they're like out at 575 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 2: their own they're at the forty one yard line. 576 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 7: Sixty yard attempt at tend them for you, But. 577 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 2: They were running the ball as if they were like, 578 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 2: we're good, we're in field goal range. 579 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:09,480 Speaker 1: Let's just run the clocks. 580 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 6: Because you're indoors, doesn't mean anything goes through. 581 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 1: I'm like looking at the kicker. 582 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 2: I'm like, they're looking at you thinking sixty yards were good, right, 583 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 2: like you'll make that. 584 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 7: And then he attempted it and it was short. It 585 00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 7: wasn't as closed it left or right. It just didn't 586 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 7: make it. 587 00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 2: And then the penalty allows him to move fifteen yards 588 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 2: and try again. He from I was thinking to you 589 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 2: all day, cause you and I have now because you 590 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:37,280 Speaker 2: came on my show locally this week too.

I need some help here. You got 690 00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:25,360 Speaker 2: to explain this to me now, because I don't understand it. 691 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:27,840 Speaker 2: I don't like not understanding things. I just want to understand. 692 00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:30,000 Speaker 2: If you'd explain it to me, then I won't be 693 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:39,480 Speaker 2: bugged anymore. Okay, Why is anybody ever bringing the ball 694 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:41,759 Speaker 2: out of the end zone on a kickoff? 695 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:47,240 Speaker 1: Why is anybody ever. 696 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:53,840 Speaker 2: Bringing the ball out of the end zone on a kickoff? 697 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:56,959 Speaker 2: We can wait till next week to find out why 698 00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:58,319 Speaker 2: anybody's kicking. 699 00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:58,720 Speaker 1: It in there. 700 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:03,760 Speaker 2: Even understand that. But this is what happens when stupid 701 00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:07,279 Speaker 2: meets stupid, you get stupid er. It's stupid to kick 702 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,120 Speaker 2: the ball in the end zone. It's stupid her to 703 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 2: bring it out. I can't tell you how many players 704 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:16,160 Speaker 2: I've watched. They're two yards deep in the end zone, 705 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:18,880 Speaker 2: they catch the thing and they come flying out of 706 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:22,319 Speaker 2: there because they're gonna return it all the way. They're 707 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,879 Speaker 2: going one hundred and two and they're gonna have their 708 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:27,520 Speaker 2: big moment. No you're not, dude. You're gonna be down 709 00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:31,080 Speaker 2: at the twenty one yard line and you could have 710 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 2: had it at the thirty five, or you could return 711 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:38,320 Speaker 2: it out to the thirty five, and then what happens, 712 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:42,480 Speaker 2: Oh damn it, I see a yellow hanky. Because what 713 00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:47,120 Speaker 2: often happens in special teams on kick returns the blocking 714 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:48,080 Speaker 2: team holds. 715 00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:50,280 Speaker 1: Is what just happened. 716 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:52,200 Speaker 2: Minnesota brought it out of the end zone and only 717 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:54,920 Speaker 2: made it to the twenty and got a penalty, so 718 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:59,360 Speaker 2: they moved back from there and went nowhere and punt. 719 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:01,879 Speaker 2: Just explain it to me, like. 720 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 3: This is as close to an explanation. 721 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:07,279 Speaker 1: I can give you. 722 00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:13,640 Speaker 3: All of those guys returning kicks really like it, and 723 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:17,360 Speaker 3: they're really good at it. Okay, it's like buying a 724 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 3: sports car in New York. You don't have anywhere to 725 00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:25,560 Speaker 3: drive it. 726 00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 1: This is a great analogy. 727 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:36,319 Speaker 3: Actually, you don't have anywhere to drive. So you may 728 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:40,399 Speaker 3: get up at three am and go out and get 729 00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:43,840 Speaker 3: on the turnpike just to open it up once or 730 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:47,720 Speaker 3: twice a week, and probably we'll get a speeding ticket. 731 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 3: But what are you supposed to do. I made a 732 00:39:54,680 --> 00:40:00,280 Speaker 3: living or I made a career of doing this, so good. 733 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,480 Speaker 3: Then I'm in the league and I get a chance 734 00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:06,480 Speaker 3: to do it. Oh, but they're telling me I can't 735 00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:09,439 Speaker 3: do it. And every time I touch it, I think 736 00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:12,520 Speaker 3: I can score a touchdown, no matter where, no matter 737 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:16,920 Speaker 3: where I am. Remember Devin Hester and Dante Hall used 738 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:18,880 Speaker 3: to bring it out from the back of the end zone, 739 00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:23,240 Speaker 3: like like reaching over the back of the end zone 740 00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:29,080 Speaker 3: and grabbing it and taking off. That's that's it. That's 741 00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 3: why you can't even stop yourself that. 742 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 2: That's a wonderful explanation. Where's the coach to go, young man? 743 00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:38,240 Speaker 2: Don't do that. 744 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:40,120 Speaker 3: That's your wife at home, like I know you're not 745 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 3: going out in the sports car. Still, yeah, you should listen, 746 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 3: but you can't help yourself. 747 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:51,799 Speaker 2: It's a good explanation, it's a good act, like I'm 748 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:53,480 Speaker 2: glad that what I'm saying is right, but it was 749 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 2: also a good yes, the very good Yeah. Okay, let's 750 00:40:57,200 --> 00:41:00,120 Speaker 2: do Three things are top observations nack. 751 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:01,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. 752 00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:05,240 Speaker 2: It's week two in the National Football League. We're watching 753 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:08,680 Speaker 2: Sunday night football. The Falcons lead the Viking six to nothing, 754 00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 2: although they were about to be in position to basically 755 00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:16,360 Speaker 2: make it a two score game. Drake London, on a 756 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:19,799 Speaker 2: pass into the high red zone, fumbles the football and 757 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:22,560 Speaker 2: the Vikings pick it up, and so that was a 758 00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:25,320 Speaker 2: little bit of a momentum swing. We'll keep an eye 759 00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:27,719 Speaker 2: on that as they now try to take it the 760 00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:28,480 Speaker 2: other direction. 761 00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:29,680 Speaker 1: But it's not just this one. 762 00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:32,839 Speaker 2: It's all of the football games on the week too, 763 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:35,520 Speaker 2: Slate that we've been talking out two more that are 764 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:37,920 Speaker 2: coming up tomorrow night that will help get you ready 765 00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 2: for as well. However, every single week in this football season, 766 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:46,160 Speaker 2: right about now, which is six o'clock Pacific, nine o'clock 767 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:51,040 Speaker 2: Eastern time, we bring you three things, which are our 768 00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 2: three top observations, the three top things on our mind 769 00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:02,720 Speaker 2: after watching a full day of football, and everything as 770 00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:05,080 Speaker 2: it did, come together. So here we go. Let's do 771 00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:08,120 Speaker 2: it three things, and my man eat from salam. You 772 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:08,880 Speaker 2: want to go first? 773 00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:09,800 Speaker 3: You please? 774 00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:12,640 Speaker 1: Oh? Okay, I get to go first. Here it is. 775 00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 2: Same old Bengals, but two and oh, let's not forget 776 00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:23,920 Speaker 2: them in the same conversation that you and I had 777 00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:27,440 Speaker 2: about the forty nine ers, which is that, how have 778 00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:29,959 Speaker 2: the Bengals arrived at two? And oh, well, they've beaten 779 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:33,840 Speaker 2: the Browns and the Jags. Nobody thinks much of those teams. Also, 780 00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:36,200 Speaker 2: the Browns missed a field goal in order for the 781 00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 2: Bengals to win, and today the Bengals needed a touchdown 782 00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:41,560 Speaker 2: from a yard out with less than a minute to 783 00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:45,719 Speaker 2: go in order to grind one out and overcome three 784 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:51,360 Speaker 2: interceptions by their backup quarterback who's also a high level backup. 785 00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:55,480 Speaker 2: And so here we are again. The Bengals can score, 786 00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:57,760 Speaker 2: but they can't stop anyone. 787 00:42:58,440 --> 00:42:59,719 Speaker 1: And how's this going to work? 788 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:02,919 Speaker 2: And then Burrow goes out and he's probably gonna miss 789 00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 2: some time with a toe injury. Good go lot. Does 790 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:09,680 Speaker 2: this sound familiar? This is the forty nine Ers. This's 791 00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:12,319 Speaker 2: the same two things going on. We got a turf 792 00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:16,400 Speaker 2: toe quarterback and a wonky weird way to get to 793 00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:20,920 Speaker 2: two and zero. But they're here. So it is the 794 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:23,920 Speaker 2: same old Bengals, and I have my concerns. But the 795 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:27,279 Speaker 2: difference is is remember the start of their year last year, 796 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:30,240 Speaker 2: it was a mess and they couldn't recover. This time, 797 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,759 Speaker 2: they found a way to actually win both games. 798 00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:36,960 Speaker 3: Okay, I like it, all right? All right for me, 799 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:38,919 Speaker 3: My first one is they are who we thought they were. 800 00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:44,640 Speaker 3: And I'm going to start with the Baltimore Ravens. Okay, 801 00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 3: the Baltimore Ravens are good. Despite hey man, what we 802 00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:55,400 Speaker 3: saw in the fourth quarter last week. The Baltimore Ravens 803 00:43:55,960 --> 00:44:00,400 Speaker 3: are a team that teams are going to have. Unless 804 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:06,279 Speaker 3: you have a Josh Allen, you're going to struggle against them. 805 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:08,960 Speaker 3: They showed us last week that they can run the 806 00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:11,120 Speaker 3: ball with the best of them. They didn't run the 807 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 3: ball as well, but they managed to put up this week. 808 00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 3: But they managed to put up forty one points. Lamar 809 00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 3: Jackson had four touchdown passes. I mean, they are They're immaculate. 810 00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:25,399 Speaker 3: And on the flip side of that, I'll also say 811 00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:29,640 Speaker 3: the Buffalo Bills are legit watching them play football last 812 00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:32,920 Speaker 3: week and this week they should be the odds on 813 00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:36,759 Speaker 3: favor to win it all. I don't see Josh Allen is. 814 00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:42,760 Speaker 3: He's levitating right now, likes he's ascending to another level 815 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:47,120 Speaker 3: before our eyes. So they are who exactly we thought 816 00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:47,480 Speaker 3: they were. 817 00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:49,720 Speaker 1: I love what you're saying, Bills and Ravens. 818 00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:52,840 Speaker 2: To me feel a lot like early returns might be 819 00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:56,840 Speaker 2: kind of like early's nineties Cowboys Niners. Yes, where we 820 00:44:56,920 --> 00:44:59,799 Speaker 2: knew the super Bowl was actually the conference title game. 821 00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:01,719 Speaker 2: We'll see if we get there. A long way to go, 822 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:05,080 Speaker 2: but I'm with you, those two teams are just different. Okay, 823 00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:07,640 Speaker 2: speaking of they are who we thought they were, I'm 824 00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:10,040 Speaker 2: so glad you use that phrase because it leads perfectly 825 00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:13,560 Speaker 2: into my second point, which before I make it, it 826 00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:29,360 Speaker 2: needs a little musical flavor, if you will. How many 827 00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:33,920 Speaker 2: times must we take this disgrace another man's fan throwing 828 00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:37,399 Speaker 2: insults in our face? The Packers are our greatest team 829 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:40,520 Speaker 2: through ever played that game, even and from. 830 00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:42,560 Speaker 3: Times that time they been I a little lame. 831 00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:46,360 Speaker 2: How could you ever love a team with Jim McMahon, 832 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:49,919 Speaker 2: not even Porky Big he was as big at him. 833 00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:54,720 Speaker 3: They got our rampantation that's mostly based on lock the Bears. 834 00:45:54,840 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 2: You still suck, Yeah, sing it with me, still. 835 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:04,879 Speaker 1: Sun, The Bears still suck. The Bear Bear still suck. 836 00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:12,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, really really sucks. Bears still suck. Yeah, ladies and gentlemen, 837 00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:17,280 Speaker 2: the Bears still suck. I don't know how to feel 838 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:20,560 Speaker 2: about that team coming out of the Monday night game. 839 00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:23,040 Speaker 2: I'm like you, I thought you were going to win, 840 00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:25,560 Speaker 2: and then and then you look like you were gonna win, 841 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,319 Speaker 2: and then you won most of the game and then 842 00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:31,600 Speaker 2: all of a sudden everything went all bears ish, and 843 00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:35,840 Speaker 2: and you lost that game. And you've got your fancy 844 00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:39,920 Speaker 2: new head coach who's a great offensive coordinator. You've got 845 00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:42,759 Speaker 2: your number one pick in the draft in year two, 846 00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:47,080 Speaker 2: and it's supposed to make sense, and and and these 847 00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:50,759 Speaker 2: on defense, the monsters of the Midway, like what on 848 00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:57,480 Speaker 2: Earth is going on? Just embarrassed, outclassed, and totally outplayed 849 00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:01,480 Speaker 2: in every facet of the game in Detroit today. And 850 00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:04,120 Speaker 2: so we have our answer. You've got a new head coach, 851 00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:09,120 Speaker 2: and it doesn't matter. The Bears still suck. 852 00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:14,919 Speaker 3: Okay, And you're absolutely right. They just look disjointed. They 853 00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:23,600 Speaker 3: look like every time Caleb Williams drops back, it's very inconsistent. 854 00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:28,239 Speaker 3: That's the thing. Good pass, bad play. Yep, good pass, 855 00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:31,080 Speaker 3: bad play. And I know it's gonna take some time 856 00:47:31,160 --> 00:47:33,280 Speaker 3: for him and Ben Johnson to get on the same page. 857 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:36,839 Speaker 3: But you don't have time. This is the NFL. There's 858 00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:39,080 Speaker 3: not a lot of time out there just being handed 859 00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:41,719 Speaker 3: out for you to figure it out. Their jobs on 860 00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:45,120 Speaker 3: the line and decisions will be made before you're ready 861 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:49,439 Speaker 3: for them to be made. And so I just it's 862 00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 3: been two years of high hopes coming into the season 863 00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:54,560 Speaker 3: for the Bears, and it just seems like it's the 864 00:47:54,600 --> 00:48:00,839 Speaker 3: same old same all for me. Uh oh, we got 865 00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:06,080 Speaker 3: trouble and I'm gonna start. I'm always trying to do 866 00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:09,400 Speaker 3: two teams. I'm gonna start with the Chiefs. We mentioned 867 00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:13,040 Speaker 3: it earlier in the show, and the fact that they 868 00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:16,320 Speaker 3: are not able to close out these one score games. 869 00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:22,920 Speaker 3: This is going this is a problem, okay. And yes, 870 00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 3: they played two dynamic teams the Chargers. We're not sure 871 00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:30,520 Speaker 3: if they're a dynamic, but they sure look like Justin 872 00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:34,560 Speaker 3: Herbert just stepped right on up and outduel with Patrick Mahomes. 873 00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:39,319 Speaker 3: But they're going to New York this coming week and 874 00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:43,920 Speaker 3: playing a scrappy Giants team that we watched give Dallas 875 00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:48,320 Speaker 3: everything they had and look, man, it's easy to say 876 00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:51,359 Speaker 3: they're gonna, of course blow them out, but then they 877 00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:54,200 Speaker 3: have the Ravens, So they're in a crazy well at 878 00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:56,520 Speaker 3: the end of the first quarter of the season after 879 00:48:56,560 --> 00:49:02,320 Speaker 3: four games, they could be one in three. There's a trouble. 880 00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:08,200 Speaker 3: There's a mouse in the house. And on the flip side, 881 00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:10,560 Speaker 3: I want to also talk about the Steelers. We talked 882 00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:14,960 Speaker 3: about that earlier. That defense is a problem. They're going 883 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:18,719 Speaker 3: to be in trouble, especially in this division, because that 884 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:22,640 Speaker 3: defense isn't able to stop anybody, and so this thing 885 00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:26,680 Speaker 3: can spiral out of control no matter what Aaron Rodgers does. 886 00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:32,239 Speaker 3: That's the scary, crazy part. They must play defense first. 887 00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:37,400 Speaker 2: Always have and I would have said always will, But 888 00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:40,640 Speaker 2: so far this year I'm with you. I like your phrase. 889 00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:45,719 Speaker 2: Uh oh yeah, it doesn't look good. Okay, here is 890 00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:50,319 Speaker 2: my number three and it is Jackson. Dark has to 891 00:49:50,320 --> 00:49:53,799 Speaker 2: wait for week five. There were rumors on Monday and 892 00:49:53,840 --> 00:49:57,360 Speaker 2: Tuesday that Brian day Ball was pushing for this to 893 00:49:57,440 --> 00:49:58,279 Speaker 2: happen right now. 894 00:49:58,360 --> 00:49:58,839 Speaker 1: Why wait? 895 00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:03,560 Speaker 2: Ausell Wilson looked like he was washed quite frankly Week 896 00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:08,760 Speaker 2: one against Washington. Don't get me wrong, the Giants still lost. 897 00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:14,879 Speaker 2: Russell still threw a really bad interception in overtime and 898 00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:17,520 Speaker 2: took a couple sacks at the wrong time. 899 00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:19,200 Speaker 1: At the same time. 900 00:50:19,719 --> 00:50:25,719 Speaker 2: Four hundred fifty yards passing today for Russell Wilson and 901 00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:30,319 Speaker 2: three touchdown throws. And here's the fact I learned from 902 00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:34,760 Speaker 2: listening to my partner Ephraim, and the New York Giants 903 00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:40,200 Speaker 2: are not going to say to their prize rookie Jackson Dart, Okay, 904 00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:41,799 Speaker 2: your job. 905 00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:45,000 Speaker 1: As the Chiefs come to town, that's the wrong time. 906 00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:48,800 Speaker 2: To do that. That's the wrong time. That's a good defense. 907 00:50:49,160 --> 00:50:52,560 Speaker 2: That's a good team. The following week, the Los Angeles 908 00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:53,720 Speaker 2: Chargers come to town. 909 00:50:54,120 --> 00:50:56,320 Speaker 1: That's a good defense. That's a good team. 910 00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:59,560 Speaker 2: So what Russell did today, even though it may only 911 00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:04,399 Speaker 2: betistically important, I think, is he pushed that can down 912 00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:06,280 Speaker 2: the road a couple of weeks. 913 00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:08,800 Speaker 1: You're still lost, which is perfect. 914 00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:11,279 Speaker 2: Keep building the zero to four that you and I 915 00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:15,280 Speaker 2: both predicted, which would lead to Jackson Dart being named 916 00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:16,959 Speaker 2: the starter for the rest of the year. 917 00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:20,040 Speaker 1: On October fifth in New Orleans. 918 00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:22,960 Speaker 2: That will be the spot in my opinion, when Jackson 919 00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:25,240 Speaker 2: Dart will get the gig. 920 00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:27,719 Speaker 3: And I'll say this about Brian day Ball and that 921 00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:31,480 Speaker 3: coaching staff. They to me, they're doing some things that 922 00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:35,120 Speaker 3: are undermining them as a team. Interesting as hot as 923 00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:39,920 Speaker 3: Russell Wilson was today, and they had these plays where 924 00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:42,960 Speaker 3: they brought Jackson Dart in, Yeah, I know. Russell Wilson 925 00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:44,439 Speaker 3: was like, what are you? I mean they were throwing 926 00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:47,480 Speaker 3: some of those downs, they were throwing them away. It 927 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:49,279 Speaker 3: was like second and three and then you bring them 928 00:51:49,320 --> 00:51:52,759 Speaker 3: in and now like, what are you doing? The man 929 00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:55,759 Speaker 3: almost threw for five hundred yards. Yeah, it's not the 930 00:51:55,800 --> 00:52:01,400 Speaker 3: time to play every down matters. Don't don't get cute. 931 00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:04,440 Speaker 3: Don't get cute. And I didn't like that, I really didn't. 932 00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:06,880 Speaker 3: I thought that was undermining of the team and the 933 00:52:06,960 --> 00:52:12,000 Speaker 3: rhythm and the flow that was happening. For me, I'm 934 00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:14,880 Speaker 3: going to step out of the world of football for 935 00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:21,560 Speaker 3: my last one trend. Do you ever seen the movie 936 00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:26,680 Speaker 3: Hustling Flow with Terrence Terrence Howard? Absolutely, he had a 937 00:52:26,680 --> 00:52:30,960 Speaker 3: song in They're called Whoop that Trick? Yes, And I 938 00:52:31,200 --> 00:52:36,800 Speaker 3: spent Saturday night, like most people on the planet, watching 939 00:52:37,239 --> 00:52:41,560 Speaker 3: one of the biggest boxing matches, real boxing matches ever 940 00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:48,919 Speaker 3: with Bud Crawford and Canela Alvarez. And I watched Bud 941 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:56,160 Speaker 3: Crawford whoop that trick like he beat him. It's to 942 00:52:56,200 --> 00:53:00,200 Speaker 3: the point where I was like, oh wow, everybody was 943 00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:03,240 Speaker 3: saying because Bud was moving up to weight classes. Canelo 944 00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:05,600 Speaker 3: is a naturally bigger fighter, and you could tell his 945 00:53:05,719 --> 00:53:09,400 Speaker 3: latch his back. Canelo is huge the power and to 946 00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:13,360 Speaker 3: have Crawford stand toe to toe with him and out 947 00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:21,920 Speaker 3: box him, it was a masterful, masterful fight. And you know, 948 00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:25,240 Speaker 3: my hat goes off to Canelo as well, a true champion, 949 00:53:25,360 --> 00:53:29,720 Speaker 3: But Bud Crawford is the undisputed pound for pound best 950 00:53:29,719 --> 00:53:33,879 Speaker 3: boxer on the planet Earth, and it was just at 951 00:53:33,960 --> 00:53:37,480 Speaker 3: forty two and old. If he retired today, he goes 952 00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:41,200 Speaker 3: down in history as one of the very few who 953 00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:45,280 Speaker 3: can be move up five weight classes and be champion, 954 00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:48,279 Speaker 3: but be undisputed in three of those weight classes. So, 955 00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:54,960 Speaker 3: you know, shout out to Bud Crawford and his whole crew. 956 00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:59,120 Speaker 3: That was a tremendous, tremendous fight on Netflix this weekend. 957 00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:03,160 Speaker 2: I am really digging this U e from takes one 958 00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:06,600 Speaker 2: of his three and goes completely somewhere else thing that 959 00:54:06,640 --> 00:54:08,800 Speaker 2: you've been doing for the last two weeks. 960 00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:10,480 Speaker 1: I like it. 961 00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:13,439 Speaker 3: It's just so much out there. Man, there's a lot 962 00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:13,960 Speaker 3: out there. 963 00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:17,520 Speaker 1: There is a lot out there.

I had to go get that instead. Yeah, 974 00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:50,279 Speaker 2: I probably would have been smarter for me to go 975 00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:51,000 Speaker 2: watch the fight. 976 00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:55,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it was.

It's 981 00:55:10,920 --> 00:55:13,080 Speaker 3: one of those things where people were saying boxing are 982 00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:16,480 Speaker 3: losing Boxing is losing some of his luster because of 983 00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:20,960 Speaker 3: the exhibition fights and the YouTubers fighting and the spectacle 984 00:55:21,040 --> 00:55:25,120 Speaker 3: of it all.

And she said something that I want to 1010 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:43,239 Speaker 2: run by you and get your take, So. 1011 00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:43,719 Speaker 1: We'll do that. 1012 00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:46,359 Speaker 2: Coming up next with you from Salami, Mark, whether it's 1013 00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:49,200 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. 1014 00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:49,640 Speaker 1: That's a good jam right there. 1015 00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:54,960 Speaker 2: We are live in the Fox Sports Radio studios, Mark 1016 00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:59,000 Speaker 2: Willardy from salam quick reminder.

What once was twenty seven to three is 1029 00:57:41,840 --> 00:57:45,880 Speaker 2: now twenty seven to twenty two, and the Panthers have 1030 00:57:46,480 --> 00:57:50,480 Speaker 2: executed a on side kick and they've got the ball 1031 00:57:50,520 --> 00:57:52,680 Speaker 2: and they're on the move, and I don't remember exactly 1032 00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:55,000 Speaker 2: how it went, but it was something something to the 1033 00:57:55,040 --> 00:58:00,000 Speaker 2: effect of intentional grounding followed by defensive holding, followed by 1034 00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:04,439 Speaker 2: roughing the passer, followed by something, and it was back 1035 00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:05,880 Speaker 2: and forth and back and forth, and it. 1036 00:58:05,840 --> 00:58:09,640 Speaker 1: Didn't go anywhere, and the Cardinals won the football game. 1037 00:58:10,600 --> 00:58:16,720 Speaker 2: And my daughter goes too many penalties in the National 1038 00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:20,560 Speaker 2: Football League. Has it always been like this, because I 1039 00:58:20,560 --> 00:58:24,480 Speaker 2: don't feel like it's always been like this, And she's sixteen, 1040 00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:27,960 Speaker 2: so it's not like she's got years and years under 1041 00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:34,280 Speaker 2: her belt of watching the NFL. But I'm like, I 1042 00:58:34,280 --> 00:58:37,200 Speaker 2: don't even know if that thought hadn't crossed my mind, 1043 00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:39,959 Speaker 2: but it was an interesting thought, especially from a young 1044 00:58:39,960 --> 00:58:44,720 Speaker 2: fan who really loves watching. I mean, if the penalties 1045 00:58:44,720 --> 00:58:47,600 Speaker 2: are there, you gotta call them. We had also just 1046 00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:52,720 Speaker 2: come from watching the Broncos Colts finish, which those of 1047 00:58:52,760 --> 00:58:56,160 Speaker 2: you who didn't watch that end, the Colts move all 1048 00:58:56,200 --> 00:58:59,560 Speaker 2: the way down, but then they get conservative kind of 1049 00:58:59,600 --> 00:59:02,120 Speaker 2: settle for a sixty yard field goal attempt at the 1050 00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:06,600 Speaker 2: buzzer comes nowhere close, but there was a leverage penalty, 1051 00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:09,400 Speaker 2: and all. 1052 00:59:09,240 --> 00:59:10,280 Speaker 1: The websites had already put. 1053 00:59:10,360 --> 00:59:13,840 Speaker 2: The Broncos won the game, and there's a whole hold 1054 00:59:13,880 --> 00:59:17,600 Speaker 2: on a second move fifteen yards forward. Kick it again. 1055 00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:21,960 Speaker 2: This time it's good Colts win. What would you have 1056 00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:24,960 Speaker 2: said to her? Too many penalties in the in the NFL? 1057 00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:27,240 Speaker 3: No, no, no, no. I would have said, no, no, no, honey, 1058 00:59:27,360 --> 00:59:31,000 Speaker 3: just this game. These are two bad teams trying to 1059 00:59:31,080 --> 00:59:31,919 Speaker 3: give away a game. 1060 00:59:32,160 --> 00:59:34,840 Speaker 1: Okay, so let's that's a funny response. 1061 00:59:34,480 --> 00:59:37,080 Speaker 3: So let's not watch this. And I would have immediately 1062 00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:41,640 Speaker 3: turned it off. So I wouldn't sully sully her, you know, 1063 00:59:41,680 --> 00:59:45,960 Speaker 3: her notion of what the NFL is. Yeah, I mean, 1064 00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:47,920 Speaker 3: watching that game, it was hard to watch because at 1065 00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:51,360 Speaker 3: a certain point it was just like, okay, it's just 1066 00:59:51,520 --> 01:00:01,760 Speaker 3: not like Carolina. It's just not good football. It's just 1067 01:00:01,800 --> 01:00:05,120 Speaker 3: not good football by any stretches the imagination. So it's 1068 01:00:05,280 --> 01:00:11,960 Speaker 3: difficult to it's difficult to watch them play like I 1069 01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:15,440 Speaker 3: even if they do something good, it just doesn't doesn't 1070 01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:22,840 Speaker 3: bryce feel small again. He feels very small out there, 1071 01:00:23,480 --> 01:00:30,640 Speaker 3: and so he plays small and it's it's difficult as 1072 01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:33,400 Speaker 3: JJ McCarthy just threw a pick, but there's a flag down, So. 1073 01:00:34,520 --> 01:00:35,520 Speaker 1: Too many penalties. 1074 01:00:36,760 --> 01:00:44,480 Speaker 3: But it's just makes it difficult to watch and to see. 1075 01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:48,680 Speaker 3: You know, I don't know, man, I was watching that 1076 01:00:48,760 --> 01:00:50,440 Speaker 3: game and I was trying not to watch it, but 1077 01:00:50,520 --> 01:00:52,680 Speaker 3: I was like, oh, you know, it's Brian's gonna be 1078 01:00:52,680 --> 01:00:54,680 Speaker 3: able to bring him back. He had a perfect opportunity, 1079 01:00:55,120 --> 01:00:57,439 Speaker 3: defense got him the ball back. It was right there 1080 01:00:57,480 --> 01:01:02,280 Speaker 3: for the taking, and it just fizzle doubt, And you know, 1081 01:01:02,480 --> 01:01:06,800 Speaker 3: Carolina was like, look, we're gonna he came back after 1082 01:01:06,840 --> 01:01:09,400 Speaker 3: we benched him last year and he finished up okay, 1083 01:01:09,920 --> 01:01:13,960 Speaker 3: so let's take another chance on him. And they'll be 1084 01:01:14,080 --> 01:01:20,880 Speaker 3: drafting in the top two pick three picks in the 1085 01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:24,400 Speaker 3: NFL draft next April, and they will take a quarterback. 1086 01:01:26,960 --> 01:01:28,960 Speaker 2: Like I'm sitting here already, and I don't know how 1087 01:01:29,040 --> 01:01:30,919 Speaker 2: much he's caught your eye. I know he's the top 1088 01:01:30,960 --> 01:01:34,080 Speaker 2: ten pick, so maybe this isn't surprising. But my man, 1089 01:01:36,040 --> 01:01:40,640 Speaker 2: Tep McMillan can be a star in this league. He 1090 01:01:40,720 --> 01:01:43,080 Speaker 2: can be a star as he's played two football games. 1091 01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:47,000 Speaker 2: And I'm watching him right now and I'm going I 1092 01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:50,320 Speaker 2: am going to predict the contract holdout followed by a 1093 01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:53,280 Speaker 2: trade two and a half years from now. 1094 01:01:53,360 --> 01:01:54,360 Speaker 1: Already, I'm gonna do it. 1095 01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:58,520 Speaker 2: Now, do it now, because is that, like, maybe I'm wrong, 1096 01:01:58,560 --> 01:02:00,480 Speaker 2: Maybe they're gonna find the beasnees in the draft. 1097 01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:02,520 Speaker 1: They're going to have their dude and it'll all change. 1098 01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:08,600 Speaker 2: But are they going to be able to build in 1099 01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:10,080 Speaker 2: the next two to three years? 1100 01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:12,760 Speaker 1: What's necessary for it to make sense? 1101 01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:16,000 Speaker 2: I don't know, man to pay who I think is 1102 01:02:16,080 --> 01:02:18,360 Speaker 2: on his way to being an elite receiver is talent 1103 01:02:18,400 --> 01:02:23,480 Speaker 2: skills as ball skills are incredible and what is the 1104 01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:25,840 Speaker 2: wide receiver market two and a half years from now? 1105 01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:28,400 Speaker 2: And on top of that, are we doing fifty a year? 1106 01:02:28,520 --> 01:02:31,400 Speaker 3: No, we're not doing that. That's gonna change. On top 1107 01:02:31,440 --> 01:02:36,680 Speaker 3: of that, it's just not him at the quarterback. It's 1108 01:02:37,160 --> 01:02:37,840 Speaker 3: sure eye. 1109 01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:38,200 Speaker 1: To the ball. 1110 01:02:38,280 --> 01:02:41,120 Speaker 3: And there's so many holes that they haven't been plugging 1111 01:02:42,840 --> 01:02:46,680 Speaker 3: all of this time. Like you can you can build. 1112 01:02:46,680 --> 01:02:49,960 Speaker 3: And I know they went heavy defense this draft, this 1113 01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:53,040 Speaker 3: past draft, so there's time to see if that really 1114 01:02:53,040 --> 01:02:56,520 Speaker 3: pays them. Next year is when we'll really see if 1115 01:02:56,680 --> 01:03:01,960 Speaker 3: those defensive picks from this year really take hold. Right, 1116 01:03:02,040 --> 01:03:04,680 Speaker 3: a lot of young players on the defensive side of 1117 01:03:04,720 --> 01:03:08,440 Speaker 3: the ball, but they really got to get a handle 1118 01:03:08,440 --> 01:03:14,120 Speaker 3: of this thing. And it's you know, C. J. Stroud 1119 01:03:14,200 --> 01:03:17,600 Speaker 3: was right there and they decided that they were going 1120 01:03:17,640 --> 01:03:23,600 Speaker 3: to take Bryce Young B Young. Yeah, it's crazy. 1121 01:03:23,960 --> 01:03:25,920 Speaker 2: As of late, it pays to be the second pick 1122 01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:28,680 Speaker 2: in the draft, not the first, ask Caleb and Jayden right. 1123 01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:34,240 Speaker 3: But even the history of Alabama quarterbacks outside of Jalen 1124 01:03:34,280 --> 01:03:36,000 Speaker 3: Hurts who didn't. 1125 01:03:35,720 --> 01:03:39,520 Speaker 1: Finish right, Yeah, what is that? 1126 01:03:39,920 --> 01:03:41,080 Speaker 3: What does that even look like? 1127 01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:43,400 Speaker 1: I would love to actually dive into that a little 1128 01:03:43,440 --> 01:03:44,440 Speaker 1: bit more with. 1129 01:03:44,440 --> 01:03:46,720 Speaker 3: You here, but let's dive into Steve first. 1130 01:03:46,760 --> 01:03:48,600 Speaker 1: Let's dive into Steve I like that. 1131 01:03:49,800 --> 01:03:52,360 Speaker 6: Uh more on this and the penalties that you bring up. 1132 01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:56,120 Speaker 6: Let me see quickly. It's Falcon six, likings three, two 1133 01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:58,280 Speaker 6: minutes to go in the first half. A quarterback that 1134 01:03:58,320 --> 01:04:02,720 Speaker 6: Ephraim has talked about Justin Herbert looks like a quarterback. Yes, 1135 01:04:02,960 --> 01:04:05,840 Speaker 6: six six, two thirty five. Bryce Young is five to 1136 01:04:05,960 --> 01:04:07,680 Speaker 6: ten two oh five. 1137 01:04:07,640 --> 01:04:11,680 Speaker 3: Maybe five ten. That's a generous five ten. 1138 01:04:12,160 --> 01:04:16,520 Speaker 6: Bryce Young was taken number one overall just a couple 1139 01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:18,920 Speaker 6: of years ago in the same draft where the Colts 1140 01:04:18,920 --> 01:04:22,600 Speaker 6: took Anthony Richardson number four overall, by the way, and 1141 01:04:22,680 --> 01:04:26,160 Speaker 6: Tennessee drafted quarterback Will Levis early in round number two. 1142 01:04:27,160 --> 01:04:30,040 Speaker 6: As for the penalties, allow me to focus on the 1143 01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:34,320 Speaker 6: New York Giants because on the opening kick return at 1144 01:04:34,400 --> 01:04:36,960 Speaker 6: Dallas today, they had a holding call that ruined a 1145 01:04:37,000 --> 01:04:40,560 Speaker 6: sixty seven yard runback. That, my friends, was a poor 1146 01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:43,320 Speaker 6: tend of things to come. Because the Giants had six 1147 01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:47,560 Speaker 6: penalties on the first drive of the game, tackle James 1148 01:04:47,640 --> 01:04:51,440 Speaker 6: Hudson was benched. It got so bad eventually it was 1149 01:04:51,440 --> 01:04:54,720 Speaker 6: a sixteen play drive took nearly nine minutes. They eked 1150 01:04:54,720 --> 01:04:56,760 Speaker 6: out a field goal for a three to nothing lead. 1151 01:04:57,360 --> 01:04:59,880 Speaker 6: Nine penalties first half of the Giants they finished with 1152 01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:04,360 Speaker 6: fourteen penalties for one hundred and sixty yards, wound up 1153 01:05:04,400 --> 01:05:08,000 Speaker 6: losing in overtime, even though Russell Wilson threw for four 1154 01:05:08,160 --> 01:05:12,720 Speaker 6: fifty Dallas forty to thirty seven. The final bare football 1155 01:05:13,120 --> 01:05:16,600 Speaker 6: it was Philadelphia winning at KC twenty seventeen. In that game, 1156 01:05:16,680 --> 01:05:20,120 Speaker 6: the quarterbacks kept getting blitzed. To remember, famously, in the 1157 01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:23,760 Speaker 6: Super Bowl win for the Eagles last season, Philly did 1158 01:05:23,760 --> 01:05:27,360 Speaker 6: not blitz Patrick Mahomes at all and kept sacking him 1159 01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:31,040 Speaker 6: time and time again. Today in Kansas City, they blitzed 1160 01:05:31,080 --> 01:05:34,480 Speaker 6: Mahomes eleven times, almost thirty percent of the time he 1161 01:05:34,560 --> 01:05:39,240 Speaker 6: dropped back to pass. The Chiefs defense meanwhile blitz Jalen 1162 01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:42,640 Speaker 6: Hurts even more than that, the equivalent of nearly two 1163 01:05:42,680 --> 01:05:44,680 Speaker 6: thirds of the time he dropped back to pass, but 1164 01:05:44,760 --> 01:05:48,040 Speaker 6: he combated it by getting the ball out so quickly 1165 01:05:48,120 --> 01:05:50,840 Speaker 6: that according to nets Chench stats, it was the quickest 1166 01:05:50,920 --> 01:05:54,840 Speaker 6: of Hurt's career average time two point one seconds and 1167 01:05:54,880 --> 01:05:57,400 Speaker 6: the ball was out. And I mentioned last hour that 1168 01:05:57,480 --> 01:06:00,880 Speaker 6: Daniel Jones in the Indianapolis game which wound up a 1169 01:06:00,920 --> 01:06:03,320 Speaker 6: win at the end against Denver had over three hundred 1170 01:06:03,400 --> 01:06:08,320 Speaker 6: yards passing two total touchdowns. Just against the Blitz, Daniel 1171 01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:12,640 Speaker 6: Jones had two hundred and sixty five yards passing sixteen 1172 01:06:12,720 --> 01:06:16,320 Speaker 6: of twenty five in those situations against Denver twenty nine 1173 01:06:16,400 --> 01:06:19,240 Speaker 6: twenty eight, the final on a forty five yard field 1174 01:06:19,280 --> 01:06:21,840 Speaker 6: goal on the final play. Speaking of field goals, in 1175 01:06:21,880 --> 01:06:24,560 Speaker 6: that Philly win at Case twenty to seventeen, the final 1176 01:06:24,720 --> 01:06:27,640 Speaker 6: Jake Elliott, who just about could not make a long 1177 01:06:27,680 --> 01:06:30,840 Speaker 6: field goal last season, hit from fifty one and fifty 1178 01:06:30,840 --> 01:06:33,360 Speaker 6: eight in a game where the Eagles won by three. 1179 01:06:33,400 --> 01:06:36,680 Speaker 6: Arizona held on to beat Carolina twenty seven to twenty two. 1180 01:06:37,160 --> 01:06:40,360 Speaker 6: In this game going on at Minnesota tonight, no touchdowns, 1181 01:06:40,400 --> 01:06:43,360 Speaker 6: yet Minnesota mid second quarter did have a thirty three 1182 01:06:43,440 --> 01:06:46,640 Speaker 6: yard field goal that kept a seventeen play drive over 1183 01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:49,480 Speaker 6: nine minutes worth just to get him on the board 1184 01:06:49,520 --> 01:06:53,840 Speaker 6: with something. JJ McCarthy with one interception. He also botched 1185 01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:57,480 Speaker 6: a fourth and short sneak early in the game. Six 1186 01:06:57,520 --> 01:07:01,080 Speaker 6: to three. Falcons lead Bijon Robinson on eight carries, has 1187 01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:04,960 Speaker 6: sixty six yards rushing. There's not much more to say 1188 01:07:04,960 --> 01:07:07,720 Speaker 6: about this game as for the Cincinnati contest, thirty one 1189 01:07:07,840 --> 01:07:10,959 Speaker 6: twenty seven Bengals over Jacksonville on a touchdown with about 1190 01:07:10,960 --> 01:07:14,080 Speaker 6: twenty seconds left. It was a quarterback sneak by Jake 1191 01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:16,920 Speaker 6: Browning that won it. Then that ended a fifteen played, 1192 01:07:17,040 --> 01:07:21,480 Speaker 6: ninety two yard drive. Browning with three total touchdowns three interceptions. 1193 01:07:21,480 --> 01:07:24,280 Speaker 6: He was in the game because the star quarterback Joe 1194 01:07:24,280 --> 01:07:27,480 Speaker 6: Burrow left after being sacked in the second quarter. Hobbled 1195 01:07:27,480 --> 01:07:29,800 Speaker 6: to the locker room with a toe injury, had an MRI. 1196 01:07:30,040 --> 01:07:33,200 Speaker 6: He's in a walking boot. NFL media reporting that surgery 1197 01:07:33,320 --> 01:07:36,959 Speaker 6: is possible because it could be a Grade three strain. 1198 01:07:36,680 --> 01:07:37,680 Speaker 7: Of the ligament in there. 1199 01:07:37,800 --> 01:07:42,000 Speaker 6: If so, if it's surgery, we're talking months plural that 1200 01:07:42,120 --> 01:07:45,680 Speaker 6: Burrow would be missing this season. Wins for New England 1201 01:07:45,680 --> 01:07:48,120 Speaker 6: and the Rams on the Road San Francisco as well. 1202 01:07:48,160 --> 01:07:50,680 Speaker 6: Buffalo won thirty to ten at the Jets. At Detroit, 1203 01:07:50,720 --> 01:07:53,840 Speaker 6: it was fifty two to twenty one Lions over Chicago 1204 01:07:54,000 --> 01:07:57,840 Speaker 6: Jared Goff five touchdown passes.

UCLA 1209 01:08:13,920 --> 01:08:17,679 Speaker 6: Football fired coach to Sean Foster. Virginia Tech fired coach 1210 01:08:17,760 --> 01:08:20,720 Speaker 6: Brent Prye, whose team also started zero to three. The 1211 01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:23,519 Speaker 6: top three and the ap pole stayed the same. Ohio State, 1212 01:08:23,640 --> 01:08:27,000 Speaker 6: Penn State, and LSU. In the ballgame at Boston tonight, 1213 01:08:27,040 --> 01:08:29,400 Speaker 6: the Red Sox scored six in the first inning. It's 1214 01:08:29,439 --> 01:08:31,519 Speaker 6: now six to four over the Yankees in the bottom 1215 01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:34,719 Speaker 6: of the eighths. Toronto already won today and a shout 1216 01:08:34,760 --> 01:08:37,719 Speaker 6: out to an offensive lineman in an NFL game today, 1217 01:08:37,760 --> 01:08:40,320 Speaker 6: and this got brought up briefly on the Fox broadcast, 1218 01:08:40,400 --> 01:08:44,200 Speaker 6: But in that game at Kansas City, a key interception 1219 01:08:44,800 --> 01:08:47,120 Speaker 6: that Mahomes threw is only one of the day that 1220 01:08:47,160 --> 01:08:49,800 Speaker 6: went off. Travis Kelsey at the goal line and a 1221 01:08:49,800 --> 01:08:50,799 Speaker 6: long run back. 1222 01:08:50,640 --> 01:08:52,040 Speaker 3: For Philly was amazing. 1223 01:08:52,120 --> 01:08:55,960 Speaker 6: Who chased him down? But the young offensive lineman Josh Simmons, 1224 01:08:56,840 --> 01:08:59,599 Speaker 6: and he did hit a max speed of eighteen point 1225 01:08:59,680 --> 01:09:02,720 Speaker 6: three miles per hour. Wow, to make the tackle on 1226 01:09:02,760 --> 01:09:05,600 Speaker 6: the sideline and prevent the touchdown. 1227 01:09:05,280 --> 01:09:06,040 Speaker 3: Rather than moving. 1228 01:09:06,120 --> 01:09:11,200 Speaker 2: Oh that's incredible. By the way, this is also incredible. 1229 01:09:11,200 --> 01:09:12,519 Speaker 2: I want to go back to one of the first 1230 01:09:12,520 --> 01:09:16,599 Speaker 2: sentences that you just uttered in this discussion, Steve, did 1231 01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:18,920 Speaker 2: you say that Bryce Young is five to ten? 1232 01:09:19,520 --> 01:09:22,080 Speaker 7: He is listed at five Okay. 1233 01:09:21,920 --> 01:09:24,639 Speaker 1: So you don't even think maybe he might not even. 1234 01:09:24,520 --> 01:09:26,720 Speaker 6: Be five to ten, kind of like Drew Brees for 1235 01:09:26,800 --> 01:09:29,559 Speaker 6: most of his career was probably taller listed than he was. 1236 01:09:29,600 --> 01:09:31,479 Speaker 6: That type of thing for the amount of batted down 1237 01:09:31,600 --> 01:09:33,600 Speaker 6: passes that we saw over the years. 1238 01:09:33,479 --> 01:09:33,920 Speaker 1: For sure. 1239 01:09:34,040 --> 01:09:36,360 Speaker 2: But I get just take it from from somebody who 1240 01:09:36,920 --> 01:09:40,519 Speaker 2: lives and works in San Francisco. People look at Brock 1241 01:09:40,560 --> 01:09:44,360 Speaker 2: Purdy and they're like, that guy's too small. He's listed 1242 01:09:44,479 --> 01:09:47,679 Speaker 2: at three inches taller than Bryce Young. 1243 01:09:48,360 --> 01:09:50,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if Brock is six to one. He's 1244 01:09:50,240 --> 01:09:51,120 Speaker 1: listed at six to one. 1245 01:09:51,240 --> 01:09:53,880 Speaker 7: Drew Brees was listed at six foot yeah. 1246 01:09:53,640 --> 01:09:57,280 Speaker 3: Which he wasn't. But yeah for an arm. 1247 01:09:56,960 --> 01:10:00,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, Brock probably isn't either. But if you think Brock 1248 01:10:00,160 --> 01:10:04,880 Speaker 2: Purty is small, what is Bryce Young tiny? 1249 01:10:05,439 --> 01:10:05,960 Speaker 3: He's tiny? 1250 01:10:06,200 --> 01:10:09,160 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, that's a tough one. You know. 1251 01:10:09,280 --> 01:10:11,360 Speaker 2: The other thing that I want to do throw at you, 1252 01:10:11,479 --> 01:10:13,920 Speaker 2: especially just off of what Steve was talking about. 1253 01:10:14,280 --> 01:10:15,439 Speaker 1: Hey, is Daniel Jones? 1254 01:10:15,439 --> 01:10:24,240 Speaker 3: Good man? I tell you what, Like my segment last week, 1255 01:10:24,280 --> 01:10:28,760 Speaker 3: one man's trash is another man's treasure, right, goodness gracious, 1256 01:10:29,840 --> 01:10:32,719 Speaker 3: he looks like a different quarter. 1257 01:10:32,720 --> 01:10:34,719 Speaker 6: Let me put it this way. The offense he's running 1258 01:10:35,280 --> 01:10:36,920 Speaker 6: has yet to punt this season. 1259 01:10:37,400 --> 01:10:39,120 Speaker 3: He looks like a different quarterback. 1260 01:10:39,360 --> 01:10:41,680 Speaker 1: That'll hold up. Hold up. 1261 01:10:42,360 --> 01:10:45,120 Speaker 2: I know last week they had seven drives and seven scores. 1262 01:10:45,680 --> 01:10:49,280 Speaker 2: I was not aware that the punter watched again today, 1263 01:10:49,479 --> 01:10:50,720 Speaker 2: that is correct. 1264 01:10:51,600 --> 01:10:53,360 Speaker 7: There were five for five on field. 1265 01:10:53,160 --> 01:10:57,320 Speaker 1: Goals week two. They haven't punted yet. 1266 01:10:57,520 --> 01:10:57,760 Speaker 3: No. 1267 01:10:57,880 --> 01:11:00,479 Speaker 6: Apparently in the last twenty years that an old happened 1268 01:11:00,479 --> 01:11:02,839 Speaker 6: to two different teams. Make it three down. The Colts 1269 01:11:02,920 --> 01:11:06,000 Speaker 6: opening the season with back to back games with no punts. 1270 01:11:06,200 --> 01:11:08,360 Speaker 1: Good thing that the Colts first two games have been 1271 01:11:08,400 --> 01:11:08,760 Speaker 1: at home. 1272 01:11:08,800 --> 01:11:11,120 Speaker 2: Those would have been wasted plane tickets if they're taking 1273 01:11:11,120 --> 01:11:12,040 Speaker 2: that guy with them. 1274 01:11:12,439 --> 01:11:15,439 Speaker 3: Look, what I'm saying is, whenever you have a quarterback 1275 01:11:15,439 --> 01:11:19,080 Speaker 3: who can throw for three to sixteen no picks, only 1276 01:11:19,080 --> 01:11:22,040 Speaker 3: sacked one time, and a running back to run for 1277 01:11:22,080 --> 01:11:28,679 Speaker 3: one sixty five, Hey, man, that is that is tough 1278 01:11:28,720 --> 01:11:29,280 Speaker 3: to deal with. 1279 01:11:29,439 --> 01:11:30,160 Speaker 1: I just listen. 1280 01:11:30,240 --> 01:11:32,040 Speaker 2: I'm not going to tell you that Daniel Jones is 1281 01:11:32,040 --> 01:11:33,719 Speaker 2: some sort of star that we didn't know about. 1282 01:11:33,760 --> 01:11:34,599 Speaker 1: I will just say this. 1283 01:11:35,760 --> 01:11:40,120 Speaker 2: My eyes are open to the possibility of you know, 1284 01:11:40,200 --> 01:11:43,280 Speaker 2: whether this is and and Stafford is a bad example, 1285 01:11:43,360 --> 01:11:47,599 Speaker 2: but maybe a darnold who it's like, get him out 1286 01:11:47,760 --> 01:11:52,439 Speaker 2: of that situation, give him a different offensive line, a 1287 01:11:52,439 --> 01:11:55,960 Speaker 2: different play caller. And I don't know if that could 1288 01:11:56,000 --> 01:11:58,080 Speaker 2: be great, but it looks like maybe it will be 1289 01:11:58,120 --> 01:12:01,639 Speaker 2: something viable right now looks very viable. 1290 01:12:02,120 --> 01:12:04,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, he looked in full control. 1291 01:12:04,720 --> 01:12:06,080 Speaker 1: That's a good defense he played. 1292 01:12:06,439 --> 01:12:08,679 Speaker 3: He looks in full that's a great defense. He looks 1293 01:12:08,680 --> 01:12:12,400 Speaker 3: in full control of the offense, the flow of at 1294 01:12:12,400 --> 01:12:16,760 Speaker 3: the pacing of it, the decision making. Hey, if he 1295 01:12:16,880 --> 01:12:19,840 Speaker 3: continues on, No, this has been two games, all right, 1296 01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:20,639 Speaker 3: and I get it. 1297 01:12:21,960 --> 01:12:25,839 Speaker 6: But the only time he had an absolutely full season, 1298 01:12:26,040 --> 01:12:29,680 Speaker 6: he had a good season with the Giants winning. He 1299 01:12:29,720 --> 01:12:32,160 Speaker 6: completed two thirds of his passes, he had like eight 1300 01:12:32,240 --> 01:12:33,240 Speaker 6: hundred yards rushing. 1301 01:12:34,040 --> 01:12:36,320 Speaker 3: It just seemed like it was a lot of pressure 1302 01:12:36,320 --> 01:12:40,240 Speaker 3: in New York and they were very inept from top 1303 01:12:40,320 --> 01:12:44,080 Speaker 3: down still in that building. And so he got from 1304 01:12:44,120 --> 01:12:46,320 Speaker 3: under that. Because its similar to the quarterbacks, any of 1305 01:12:46,320 --> 01:12:50,519 Speaker 3: the Jets quarterbacks, to believe, It's just it's very heavy 1306 01:12:50,680 --> 01:12:54,280 Speaker 3: in New York and expectations can be draining, especially for 1307 01:12:54,320 --> 01:12:56,720 Speaker 3: a young player trying to figure it out at the 1308 01:12:56,800 --> 01:13:00,320 Speaker 3: quarterback position. But you know, they got a big game 1309 01:13:00,360 --> 01:13:03,920 Speaker 3: which they should be favored in in division against the 1310 01:13:03,960 --> 01:13:08,160 Speaker 3: Titans next week, so they could start this thing three 1311 01:13:08,200 --> 01:13:09,360 Speaker 3: and oh. 1312 01:13:09,760 --> 01:13:13,120 Speaker 2: Almost almost ready to say that they should start three 1313 01:13:13,120 --> 01:13:14,600 Speaker 2: and oh, I know that that's that. 1314 01:13:14,640 --> 01:13:15,920 Speaker 1: One's on the road though, isn't it? 1315 01:13:16,360 --> 01:13:16,519 Speaker 3: Yes? 1316 01:13:17,000 --> 01:13:18,000 Speaker 1: On the road at Tennessee. 1317 01:13:18,080 --> 01:13:20,600 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, but still and then at the Rams after that, 1318 01:13:20,840 --> 01:13:23,400 Speaker 2: at the Rams after that. Interesting, man, it's an interesting 1319 01:13:23,439 --> 01:13:27,840 Speaker 2: club with the way that they've started. And and not 1320 01:13:28,160 --> 01:13:31,760 Speaker 2: a whole lot of talk about Anthony Richardson anymore. So 1321 01:13:32,320 --> 01:13:34,920 Speaker 2: I want to talk about Burrow also, especially off of 1322 01:13:34,960 --> 01:13:37,679 Speaker 2: what Steve just said. So we're in the Fox Sports 1323 01:13:37,720 --> 01:13:40,120 Speaker 2: Radio studios, and we'll do that coming up next with 1324 01:13:40,160 --> 01:13:42,240 Speaker 2: e from Salama Mark with at Fox Sports Radio. 1325 01:13:43,200 --> 01:13:45,760 Speaker 1: Okay, it's live in the Fox Sports Radio studios. 1326 01:13:45,880 --> 01:13:48,400 Speaker 2: This has gotten I think a little bit buried during 1327 01:13:48,479 --> 01:13:53,360 Speaker 2: our show because it's still not official and they haven't 1328 01:13:53,400 --> 01:13:57,880 Speaker 2: fully figured out, but the tea leaves are everywhere that 1329 01:13:58,000 --> 01:14:03,280 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow's injury is not just a multi week injury 1330 01:14:04,840 --> 01:14:08,320 Speaker 2: from It might be a multi month injury. And at 1331 01:14:08,360 --> 01:14:13,439 Speaker 2: this stage of mid September, if you are looking at 1332 01:14:13,479 --> 01:14:15,799 Speaker 2: an injury and the report is that it could sideline 1333 01:14:15,840 --> 01:14:19,320 Speaker 2: him up to three months, we're actually talking about something 1334 01:14:19,360 --> 01:14:21,400 Speaker 2: that I don't know for all. 1335 01:14:21,240 --> 01:14:23,879 Speaker 1: Intents and purposes. That's kind of the season. 1336 01:14:24,800 --> 01:14:29,120 Speaker 2: Could Jake Browning, who is a high level backup, could 1337 01:14:29,200 --> 01:14:32,519 Speaker 2: he work them into the playoffs to Joe's return shirts possible? 1338 01:14:33,280 --> 01:14:35,640 Speaker 2: A little far fetched for me to believe that in 1339 01:14:35,720 --> 01:14:38,320 Speaker 2: the AFC with the power teams that they're going to 1340 01:14:38,400 --> 01:14:42,400 Speaker 2: throw out there. But we got to get to this 1341 01:14:42,560 --> 01:14:46,040 Speaker 2: because the report is from both Ian Rappaport and Tom 1342 01:14:46,120 --> 01:14:49,400 Speaker 2: Pilasero and others that what you're looking at is a 1343 01:14:49,479 --> 01:14:53,679 Speaker 2: Grade three turf toe Grade one you might be able 1344 01:14:53,680 --> 01:14:57,200 Speaker 2: to play next week. Grade two is probably something in 1345 01:14:57,240 --> 01:15:00,719 Speaker 2: the neighborhood of what brock Party's dealing with. Game two 1346 01:15:00,800 --> 01:15:06,360 Speaker 2: games maybe three grade three turf tow you need surgery, 1347 01:15:07,400 --> 01:15:12,680 Speaker 2: and that's what Burrow is potentially looking at. And this 1348 01:15:13,760 --> 01:15:18,280 Speaker 2: changes the league, it changes the FC, it changes Fantasy football. 1349 01:15:18,960 --> 01:15:24,479 Speaker 2: This is our first major cage rattler of the season. 1350 01:15:24,479 --> 01:15:29,280 Speaker 3: I would say, yeah it is, And I mean, you know, 1351 01:15:29,400 --> 01:15:33,040 Speaker 3: no disrespect to Jake Browning, but you know, three picks 1352 01:15:33,040 --> 01:15:36,680 Speaker 3: in a game that's not gonna get it done for you. 1353 01:15:39,640 --> 01:15:47,639 Speaker 3: Baltimore's I mean, the Bengals are in such a fragile state, 1354 01:15:48,880 --> 01:15:58,840 Speaker 3: I should say, and that division is a monster, and 1355 01:15:58,880 --> 01:16:03,920 Speaker 3: having Jake Browning and be the guy, it's gonna be 1356 01:16:04,400 --> 01:16:08,000 Speaker 3: a tall task. So if Burrow is if they do 1357 01:16:08,040 --> 01:16:10,280 Speaker 3: play him on IR because of he has surgery, that's 1358 01:16:10,320 --> 01:16:15,960 Speaker 3: we'll go. It's gonna have to. You know, Jamar Chase 1359 01:16:18,040 --> 01:16:22,000 Speaker 3: was Browning's favorite target. So my question to you is, 1360 01:16:22,560 --> 01:16:25,080 Speaker 3: do you stick with Browning or do you make a 1361 01:16:25,080 --> 01:16:25,959 Speaker 3: call to Atlanta. 1362 01:16:26,920 --> 01:16:27,920 Speaker 1: It's a great question. 1363 01:16:29,680 --> 01:16:32,400 Speaker 2: You know, we're sitting here watching this football game tonight, 1364 01:16:32,439 --> 01:16:35,000 Speaker 2: and at a certain point they did pan over to 1365 01:16:35,120 --> 01:16:39,639 Speaker 2: Kirk and I listen, I don't know all the inner 1366 01:16:39,680 --> 01:16:42,360 Speaker 2: workings of what's going on there, and I know that 1367 01:16:42,560 --> 01:16:45,599 Speaker 2: NFL fans get a little triggered sometimes when people start 1368 01:16:45,600 --> 01:16:47,240 Speaker 2: feeling for players because. 1369 01:16:46,960 --> 01:16:49,200 Speaker 1: They're like, you're getting paid and shut up. 1370 01:16:49,080 --> 01:16:50,960 Speaker 2: And do it, Like because Kirk is making a lot 1371 01:16:51,000 --> 01:16:53,719 Speaker 2: of money to stand there and watch football games. 1372 01:16:53,720 --> 01:16:57,240 Speaker 1: That's true, But I do feel for the situation. 1373 01:16:57,960 --> 01:17:01,400 Speaker 2: He has very little time left in his career, and 1374 01:17:01,560 --> 01:17:06,559 Speaker 2: Kirk has been totally silent, which is kind of amazing, 1375 01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:09,760 Speaker 2: to be honest with you. Somebody who's as accomplished in 1376 01:17:09,800 --> 01:17:12,760 Speaker 2: this league as Kirk Cousins is, for him to just 1377 01:17:12,920 --> 01:17:18,800 Speaker 2: basically watch his career just wind down to nothing is 1378 01:17:19,680 --> 01:17:23,280 Speaker 2: fascinating to watch him do it silently, and maybe in 1379 01:17:23,320 --> 01:17:27,400 Speaker 2: the back of his mind, he's waiting for this exact situation. 1380 01:17:28,360 --> 01:17:30,960 Speaker 2: Maybe that's what he decided to do. I'm gonna sit here, 1381 01:17:31,320 --> 01:17:34,559 Speaker 2: I'm gonna wait. I'm gonna see if something happens to Tua, 1382 01:17:34,720 --> 01:17:36,720 Speaker 2: or if something happens to somebody that we're not even 1383 01:17:36,760 --> 01:17:42,320 Speaker 2: thinking about, and then look at potential options there. If 1384 01:17:42,360 --> 01:17:45,960 Speaker 2: you're asking me, if I were the Bengals, would I 1385 01:17:45,960 --> 01:17:46,599 Speaker 2: make that call? 1386 01:17:46,680 --> 01:17:47,960 Speaker 1: Absolutely? Now. 1387 01:17:48,000 --> 01:17:50,200 Speaker 2: I don't know about the financial structure, of it all. 1388 01:17:51,280 --> 01:17:54,799 Speaker 2: And I don't even think at this point Kirk would 1389 01:17:54,880 --> 01:17:56,519 Speaker 2: command a first round draft pick. 1390 01:17:57,520 --> 01:17:59,000 Speaker 3: No, I don't think so. 1391 01:17:59,200 --> 01:18:02,920 Speaker 2: You know, but there's no Someone tell me what he's 1392 01:18:02,960 --> 01:18:07,599 Speaker 2: doing there? Yeah, what's he doing in Atlanta? You don't 1393 01:18:07,640 --> 01:18:09,439 Speaker 2: and I don't want to hear. Oh, you'll love having 1394 01:18:09,439 --> 01:18:12,719 Speaker 2: a backup. You don't do that to people. I don't 1395 01:18:12,720 --> 01:18:15,400 Speaker 2: believe that. I don't believe you put someone like that 1396 01:18:15,479 --> 01:18:17,840 Speaker 2: over the shoulder of a young player. And I don't 1397 01:18:17,840 --> 01:18:25,240 Speaker 2: believe you barry accomplished players as insurance policies when they 1398 01:18:25,240 --> 01:18:26,320 Speaker 2: could be out there performing. 1399 01:18:28,800 --> 01:18:35,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I know he wants to play. It 1400 01:18:36,160 --> 01:18:44,080 Speaker 3: seems like it's a situation where the Bengals would need him. 1401 01:18:44,320 --> 01:18:47,800 Speaker 3: I mean, you get away with that against Jacksonville, but 1402 01:18:48,400 --> 01:18:52,559 Speaker 3: you know, moving forward, he's gonna be very few games 1403 01:18:52,560 --> 01:18:58,720 Speaker 3: you win throwing three picks, and so you know, they 1404 01:18:58,800 --> 01:19:02,479 Speaker 3: face the Vikings, They've Brian Flores and the Vikings defense. 1405 01:19:02,560 --> 01:19:07,440 Speaker 3: Next they face the Broncos defense, the Lions, the Packers, 1406 01:19:07,439 --> 01:19:08,160 Speaker 3: the Steelers. 1407 01:19:08,680 --> 01:19:11,920 Speaker 1: Like, they're not gonna win those games. 1408 01:19:12,000 --> 01:19:14,719 Speaker 3: This is going to be not gonna win those games 1409 01:19:15,040 --> 01:19:17,439 Speaker 3: a problem. 1410 01:19:17,640 --> 01:19:19,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, their schedule, I mean you just said it. 1411 01:19:20,520 --> 01:19:22,920 Speaker 2: I mean just the next four weeks alone at Minnesota 1412 01:19:22,960 --> 01:19:25,120 Speaker 2: at Denver home to Detroit at Green Bay. 1413 01:19:25,240 --> 01:19:27,080 Speaker 3: My goodness, that is a gauntlet. 1414 01:19:27,120 --> 01:19:29,559 Speaker 2: You're gonna send Jake Browning out there to do that? Now, 1415 01:19:29,640 --> 01:19:32,320 Speaker 2: let me just say this right here. It's a good 1416 01:19:32,320 --> 01:19:34,519 Speaker 2: idea from you. I agree with it. They won't do it. 1417 01:19:35,080 --> 01:19:37,160 Speaker 3: No, I don't think they will either. They won't do it. 1418 01:19:37,200 --> 01:19:38,000 Speaker 3: I don't think they will. 1419 01:19:38,080 --> 01:19:41,599 Speaker 2: They're gonna stick Browning out there and then they'll get 1420 01:19:41,640 --> 01:19:42,560 Speaker 2: what they get. 1421 01:19:43,560 --> 01:19:50,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just it's setting up to be another another 1422 01:19:52,120 --> 01:19:56,960 Speaker 3: just regretful season for the Bengals. And even though they 1423 01:19:57,040 --> 01:20:01,320 Speaker 3: flipped the script and they're two to zero, it could 1424 01:20:01,680 --> 01:20:05,240 Speaker 3: this could fall off the rails extremely fast, which it 1425 01:20:05,320 --> 01:20:06,280 Speaker 3: looks like you will. 1426 01:20:06,520 --> 01:20:08,120 Speaker 1: They kind of should be ohing too. 1427 01:20:08,560 --> 01:20:10,400 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, oh yeah, it should be going. 1428 01:20:10,240 --> 01:20:12,080 Speaker 1: Too easy for sure. 1429 01:20:12,200 --> 01:20:14,439 Speaker 3: Last week we've figured out a way to win these 1430 01:20:14,479 --> 01:20:19,320 Speaker 3: two games even with major injuries, which is to be commended. 1431 01:20:19,840 --> 01:20:23,840 Speaker 3: But is it sustainable? That's the question. Is it sustainable? 1432 01:20:24,240 --> 01:20:27,160 Speaker 3: And I don't believe it is not. With Jake Brownie, 1433 01:20:27,800 --> 01:20:29,400 Speaker 3: I agree with you. I agree with you. 1434 01:20:29,520 --> 01:20:32,840 Speaker 2: It also begs a completely different question that's not about 1435 01:20:32,840 --> 01:20:37,559 Speaker 2: the Bengals, but it's about Joe, and I personally hate 1436 01:20:37,560 --> 01:20:42,879 Speaker 2: the phrase injury prone. I don't like blaming athletes for injury. However, 1437 01:20:43,400 --> 01:20:48,160 Speaker 2: there is a conversation there. There's a conversation about the 1438 01:20:48,280 --> 01:20:51,519 Speaker 2: injury history that is building for Joe Burrow. So we'll 1439 01:20:51,520 --> 01:20:54,040 Speaker 2: get to that a little bit coming up next from 1440 01:20:54,040 --> 01:20:56,160 Speaker 2: salam Mark Willard, Fox Sports Radio. 1441 01:20:57,360 --> 01:20:57,960 Speaker 1: End of the night. 1442 01:20:58,200 --> 01:21:01,759 Speaker 2: We go on Week two in the National Football League, 1443 01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:06,280 Speaker 2: the Falcons and Minnesota Vikings opening up second half play 1444 01:21:06,439 --> 01:21:09,639 Speaker 2: as we speak with the Falcons up by three. Nine 1445 01:21:10,000 --> 01:21:12,600 Speaker 2: to six is the score. We are live in the 1446 01:21:12,640 --> 01:21:16,080 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio studios talking all of it out. A 1447 01:21:16,080 --> 01:21:18,320 Speaker 2: lot of great games today, not a lot of upsets. 1448 01:21:18,640 --> 01:21:21,240 Speaker 2: Things starting to take shape. I always like week two, 1449 01:21:21,400 --> 01:21:24,000 Speaker 2: as I said, because that, to me is when you 1450 01:21:24,080 --> 01:21:27,240 Speaker 2: really feel like you start to get a sense of 1451 01:21:27,280 --> 01:21:30,160 Speaker 2: the identity of a team, the personality of a team, 1452 01:21:30,400 --> 01:21:35,240 Speaker 2: who they are, what they can do. Now, the Cincinnati Bengals, 1453 01:21:35,320 --> 01:21:39,400 Speaker 2: it appears, have just changed their identity and their personality 1454 01:21:39,640 --> 01:21:43,480 Speaker 2: against their will. The sound, the drum beat, the staircase 1455 01:21:43,520 --> 01:21:46,200 Speaker 2: that we're climbing right now is telling us that Joe 1456 01:21:46,240 --> 01:21:49,920 Speaker 2: Burrow is going to miss a significant amount of time. 1457 01:21:49,960 --> 01:21:52,479 Speaker 2: It's not for sure yet, but it's definitely going to 1458 01:21:52,520 --> 01:21:54,800 Speaker 2: be at least a few weeks. Sounds like it might 1459 01:21:54,840 --> 01:21:57,479 Speaker 2: be a few months. Joe might miss a good portion 1460 01:21:57,560 --> 01:22:01,000 Speaker 2: of the season. I need from if that happens. That's 1461 01:22:01,000 --> 01:22:04,600 Speaker 2: a third time already. That's a third time already in 1462 01:22:04,680 --> 01:22:08,160 Speaker 2: his young career, that he will miss the majority of 1463 01:22:08,240 --> 01:22:12,080 Speaker 2: a season. I never like this phrase, but I want 1464 01:22:12,120 --> 01:22:14,960 Speaker 2: to know what you do with it? What do you 1465 01:22:15,040 --> 01:22:23,440 Speaker 2: do with in football? The phrase injury prone? 1466 01:22:23,840 --> 01:22:26,960 Speaker 3: It's a real phrase. I mean, it's a real thing. 1467 01:22:28,520 --> 01:22:33,200 Speaker 3: And the reason it's like that and it's said like 1468 01:22:33,240 --> 01:22:37,280 Speaker 3: that is because anyone can get hurt on any play. Sure, 1469 01:22:38,280 --> 01:22:44,640 Speaker 3: that's why most contracts outside of quarterbacks aren't guaranteed. The 1470 01:22:44,880 --> 01:22:49,280 Speaker 3: chance for career ending injury or season inding injury could 1471 01:22:49,320 --> 01:22:55,439 Speaker 3: happen on every single play. The difference with being labeled 1472 01:22:55,479 --> 01:22:59,920 Speaker 3: injury prone and not is it tends to happen to 1473 01:22:59,920 --> 01:23:05,040 Speaker 3: you on any set play, any set play, any given time. 1474 01:23:06,640 --> 01:23:10,639 Speaker 3: And so I think it's one of those situations where 1475 01:23:10,920 --> 01:23:13,640 Speaker 3: guys can play their whole career and not have a 1476 01:23:13,920 --> 01:23:22,320 Speaker 3: significant career ending or time ending injury. But then some guys, 1477 01:23:22,360 --> 01:23:26,479 Speaker 3: for whatever reason, it's just on them and there's no 1478 01:23:27,880 --> 01:23:36,559 Speaker 3: scientific explanation. It just happens. And so once you get 1479 01:23:36,600 --> 01:23:38,880 Speaker 3: that label. The one thing I do know is once 1480 01:23:38,920 --> 01:23:43,120 Speaker 3: you start having serious injuries, your body never fully gets 1481 01:23:43,160 --> 01:23:49,000 Speaker 3: back one hundred percent. So the common thing that happens 1482 01:23:49,680 --> 01:23:54,959 Speaker 3: most of the time is when you're coming back from injury, 1483 01:23:55,040 --> 01:23:59,640 Speaker 3: your body learns how to overcompensate for the injury. What's say, 1484 01:23:59,680 --> 01:24:02,360 Speaker 3: it's a knee are an achilles, So you put a 1485 01:24:02,400 --> 01:24:04,960 Speaker 3: lot of pressure on the opposite leg, the opposite knee, 1486 01:24:04,960 --> 01:24:10,240 Speaker 3: the opposite ankle, the opposite hip, and it kind of 1487 01:24:10,280 --> 01:24:13,879 Speaker 3: throws things off. And even though when you get healthy, 1488 01:24:14,000 --> 01:24:16,760 Speaker 3: you know your body's different and it'll never get back 1489 01:24:16,760 --> 01:24:20,600 Speaker 3: to where it was prior, and it may and everybody's 1490 01:24:20,640 --> 01:24:24,640 Speaker 3: bodies is different, that the makeup of an individual athlete's 1491 01:24:24,640 --> 01:24:28,360 Speaker 3: body is completely different. And so once you start having 1492 01:24:28,400 --> 01:24:31,880 Speaker 3: it over and over and over again, then you're like, oh, okay, 1493 01:24:31,960 --> 01:24:34,360 Speaker 3: well you're injury prone. Because you are. It's not a 1494 01:24:34,439 --> 01:24:40,400 Speaker 3: negative thing, it's what it is. It's what it is. 1495 01:24:41,120 --> 01:24:44,400 Speaker 3: So case in point, if Dak Prescott ends up, God forbid, 1496 01:24:44,479 --> 01:24:46,479 Speaker 3: and I never throw that, I never want to die. 1497 01:24:46,520 --> 01:24:48,559 Speaker 3: I hate about it, So I don't even want to 1498 01:24:48,880 --> 01:24:51,000 Speaker 3: I strike that from the record because you know, I 1499 01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:53,080 Speaker 3: don't want to put that out there. But let's just say, 1500 01:24:53,080 --> 01:24:58,200 Speaker 3: any quarterback who's been or any player who's had season 1501 01:24:58,320 --> 01:25:01,679 Speaker 3: ending injury or it's been a long time on ir 1502 01:25:01,800 --> 01:25:03,960 Speaker 3: or whatever that is, if it happens again this year, 1503 01:25:04,080 --> 01:25:05,799 Speaker 3: then yes, you get that. Moniker. 1504 01:25:10,360 --> 01:25:12,840 Speaker 2: The other interesting thing to me about this one, and 1505 01:25:12,880 --> 01:25:17,120 Speaker 2: you bring up Dak even though you got took. 1506 01:25:16,920 --> 01:25:19,679 Speaker 1: It from the record. Yes, but you bring up his name. 1507 01:25:19,720 --> 01:25:20,120 Speaker 1: That's fine. 1508 01:25:20,120 --> 01:25:22,800 Speaker 2: You're allowed to say the words Dak Prescott and I 1509 01:25:22,880 --> 01:25:25,400 Speaker 2: say the words Joe Burrow. And to me, maybe this 1510 01:25:25,560 --> 01:25:28,840 Speaker 2: isn't fair, But like I know, when an NFL team 1511 01:25:28,920 --> 01:25:32,960 Speaker 2: goes in to its season, it probably needs to plan 1512 01:25:33,760 --> 01:25:35,320 Speaker 2: for its left tackle. 1513 01:25:36,360 --> 01:25:39,679 Speaker 1: You might miss a game or two. Your edge rusher, 1514 01:25:40,200 --> 01:25:41,120 Speaker 1: you might miss a few. 1515 01:25:41,240 --> 01:25:44,679 Speaker 2: Your tight end, you're wide receiver, definitely, you're running backs. 1516 01:25:45,880 --> 01:25:52,520 Speaker 2: But quarterback quarterback is the position that most franchises cannot 1517 01:25:52,600 --> 01:25:53,679 Speaker 2: withstand injury. 1518 01:25:54,520 --> 01:25:56,280 Speaker 1: They just can't handle it. 1519 01:25:56,280 --> 01:25:58,679 Speaker 2: It's why I mean to go look at the records 1520 01:25:58,720 --> 01:26:01,760 Speaker 2: of NFL teams the last couple of years when a 1521 01:26:01,760 --> 01:26:03,080 Speaker 2: backup quarterback is playing. 1522 01:26:03,120 --> 01:26:03,839 Speaker 1: It's stunning. 1523 01:26:04,400 --> 01:26:09,360 Speaker 2: It's a stunningly bad record when the backup starts a game, 1524 01:26:09,880 --> 01:26:12,479 Speaker 2: even those who say, well, we've got a high level backup. 1525 01:26:12,760 --> 01:26:16,280 Speaker 2: High level backup is also known as very low level starter. 1526 01:26:17,439 --> 01:26:21,320 Speaker 2: That's what that's called, right, That's Mac Jones, that's Jake Browning. 1527 01:26:21,600 --> 01:26:25,000 Speaker 2: These are people who no one wants as their starting 1528 01:26:25,080 --> 01:26:26,080 Speaker 2: quarterback anymore. 1529 01:26:26,800 --> 01:26:29,000 Speaker 1: So what that. 1530 01:26:29,040 --> 01:26:31,080 Speaker 2: Means is is that I look around the league and 1531 01:26:31,120 --> 01:26:35,160 Speaker 2: I see that position because you do take some hits, obviously, 1532 01:26:35,240 --> 01:26:38,920 Speaker 2: but you take a lot fewer than just about every 1533 01:26:38,960 --> 01:26:43,960 Speaker 2: other position on the field, and you can, and often 1534 01:26:44,040 --> 01:26:46,800 Speaker 2: do you make it through, like seventeen games from your 1535 01:26:46,840 --> 01:26:54,160 Speaker 2: quarterback is not an unreasonable hope or request. So I 1536 01:26:54,200 --> 01:26:57,400 Speaker 2: do think it's even different when we're talking about a quarterback. 1537 01:26:57,439 --> 01:27:01,720 Speaker 2: And yes, Dak has had some injury issues, and now 1538 01:27:01,760 --> 01:27:06,120 Speaker 2: this is the third one for Joe Burrow, brock Purdy 1539 01:27:06,200 --> 01:27:09,000 Speaker 2: had one not too long ago. We've talked about Kirk Cousins, 1540 01:27:09,320 --> 01:27:14,880 Speaker 2: he toren ACL, Tom Brady toren ACL. But there are 1541 01:27:14,880 --> 01:27:18,800 Speaker 2: also quarterbacks out there who I think went their entire career. 1542 01:27:20,080 --> 01:27:21,799 Speaker 1: Without having one of these injuries. 1543 01:27:21,840 --> 01:27:25,200 Speaker 2: So for a guy number one pick in the draft 1544 01:27:25,800 --> 01:27:28,400 Speaker 2: and considered one of the top four or five qbs. 1545 01:27:28,080 --> 01:27:30,400 Speaker 1: In the game to be dealing with this now for. 1546 01:27:30,360 --> 01:27:33,679 Speaker 2: The third time in what I think is a five 1547 01:27:33,720 --> 01:27:34,719 Speaker 2: to six year career. 1548 01:27:34,880 --> 01:27:39,240 Speaker 1: Andrew, Look, yeah, that's another that's a good one. Andrew, Yeah, 1549 01:27:39,720 --> 01:27:40,320 Speaker 1: up and left. 1550 01:27:40,600 --> 01:27:43,599 Speaker 3: He was like, I can't take it anymore. Yeah, Andrew. Look, 1551 01:27:43,760 --> 01:27:46,600 Speaker 3: he got back healthy, so he thought, and then he 1552 01:27:46,800 --> 01:27:50,160 Speaker 3: wasn't and they didn't know what it was, and he 1553 01:27:50,320 --> 01:27:54,400 Speaker 3: just couldn't take it anymore. The mental and physical toll. 1554 01:27:54,960 --> 01:27:57,160 Speaker 3: And this is what a lot of people don't know about. 1555 01:27:57,520 --> 01:28:01,559 Speaker 3: The mental and physical toll injuries and coming back from 1556 01:28:01,600 --> 01:28:10,080 Speaker 3: injury takes on a player. It's unbelievable. It's unbelieve you 1557 01:28:10,080 --> 01:28:15,600 Speaker 3: want to talk about fits of emotional depression and uncertainty. 1558 01:28:16,720 --> 01:28:21,479 Speaker 3: It just is a world wind because you know your 1559 01:28:21,560 --> 01:28:26,400 Speaker 3: window is very small. It's so limited doing this thing 1560 01:28:26,479 --> 01:28:31,839 Speaker 3: that you love. And whenever you keep, for whatever reason, 1561 01:28:33,760 --> 01:28:41,240 Speaker 3: missing that window, then it becomes a problem mentally. Like 1562 01:28:41,720 --> 01:28:49,479 Speaker 3: it's a lot of guys go through counseling HM. When 1563 01:28:49,560 --> 01:28:53,040 Speaker 3: you come back, you fight, you come back from for 1564 01:28:53,120 --> 01:28:55,880 Speaker 3: an end from an injury and you feel in good 1565 01:28:56,000 --> 01:29:02,479 Speaker 3: finally and then you get hurt again. It's devastating to 1566 01:29:02,600 --> 01:29:08,960 Speaker 3: that player. It changes how they play because now they're 1567 01:29:09,280 --> 01:29:13,640 Speaker 3: worried about the next one. And if you're playing football 1568 01:29:13,960 --> 01:29:16,680 Speaker 3: and you're worried about getting hurt, you're not a very 1569 01:29:16,720 --> 01:29:17,639 Speaker 3: good football player. 1570 01:29:17,760 --> 01:29:18,000 Speaker 1: Yep. 1571 01:29:20,680 --> 01:29:22,639 Speaker 3: Football is one of the sports you have to play 1572 01:29:22,800 --> 01:29:25,240 Speaker 3: with caution to the win, and it's hard to do 1573 01:29:25,320 --> 01:29:29,240 Speaker 3: that if you've had one, two, three serious injuries. 1574 01:29:29,479 --> 01:29:31,160 Speaker 1: What's the worst one you ever had? 1575 01:29:34,439 --> 01:29:42,400 Speaker 3: I tore my moniscus pretty bad, but I never had 1576 01:29:42,479 --> 01:29:44,920 Speaker 3: a couple times, but I never missed a significant like 1577 01:29:45,240 --> 01:29:50,559 Speaker 3: I had knee surgery and started eleven days later. Right like, 1578 01:29:51,040 --> 01:29:54,439 Speaker 3: you know, I broke I broke two fingers on my 1579 01:29:54,520 --> 01:29:56,719 Speaker 3: right hand, and then I shattered my knuckle on my 1580 01:29:57,160 --> 01:29:59,680 Speaker 3: excuse me, yes, shattered my knuck on my left hand 1581 01:29:59,680 --> 01:30:01,799 Speaker 3: at the you know, around the same time I started 1582 01:30:01,840 --> 01:30:04,519 Speaker 3: to four I started fourteen games with two broken hands, 1583 01:30:06,120 --> 01:30:10,920 Speaker 3: you know, So like my talerant for pain. Now, it's ridiculous, 1584 01:30:10,960 --> 01:30:12,920 Speaker 3: doesn't make any sense. I don't even know when something's 1585 01:30:12,960 --> 01:30:16,680 Speaker 3: really wrong with me, all right, Like I just don't know. 1586 01:30:17,000 --> 01:30:17,760 Speaker 1: You're conditioned. 1587 01:30:17,800 --> 01:30:20,240 Speaker 3: You know, I'm conditioned. I have a herniated disk in 1588 01:30:20,320 --> 01:30:22,360 Speaker 3: my bag my shoulder. I tore my labors and never 1589 01:30:22,360 --> 01:30:24,280 Speaker 3: got them fixed. Some days I can't raise my armor 1590 01:30:24,800 --> 01:30:28,080 Speaker 3: I just don't know. But when I was playing the 1591 01:30:28,120 --> 01:30:31,519 Speaker 3: only time I never missed a significant amount of time 1592 01:30:32,240 --> 01:30:37,479 Speaker 3: like season ending injury. But I've had surgery a couple 1593 01:30:37,560 --> 01:30:42,080 Speaker 3: times in the middle of the year and still, you know, 1594 01:30:42,160 --> 01:30:46,519 Speaker 3: came back and played. I was an injury prone you 1595 01:30:46,600 --> 01:30:48,240 Speaker 3: know what I mean. I never had one of those. 1596 01:30:48,280 --> 01:30:51,360 Speaker 3: Now everybody's gonna have nix and bruises and get your 1597 01:30:51,439 --> 01:30:53,600 Speaker 3: leg taped up, and like I had to cast on 1598 01:30:53,680 --> 01:30:56,640 Speaker 3: my hands. Those aren't that. That doesn't put you in 1599 01:30:57,000 --> 01:31:01,120 Speaker 3: the category of injury prone. Injury prone. In that category, 1600 01:31:01,200 --> 01:31:06,920 Speaker 3: you're not available for your team for long periods for stretches, 1601 01:31:08,320 --> 01:31:12,400 Speaker 3: and you know, I was thankful not to have stretches 1602 01:31:12,479 --> 01:31:12,680 Speaker 3: like that. 1603 01:31:16,880 --> 01:31:20,000 Speaker 2: I got one other question for you, and this one 1604 01:31:20,040 --> 01:31:26,679 Speaker 2: is selfish. What do you say right now to someone 1605 01:31:26,680 --> 01:31:29,120 Speaker 2: who has Joe Burrow as their fantasy quarterback? 1606 01:31:29,200 --> 01:31:30,719 Speaker 1: Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. 1607 01:31:30,720 --> 01:31:32,759 Speaker 2: I know this is rude. I know we're not supposed 1608 01:31:32,800 --> 01:31:35,080 Speaker 2: to talk about me, and it's me. 1609 01:31:35,439 --> 01:31:40,639 Speaker 3: It's me. What have I been saying to myself is oh god, 1610 01:31:41,160 --> 01:31:44,240 Speaker 3: what on the flip side of that? My backup quarterback 1611 01:31:44,640 --> 01:31:46,240 Speaker 3: is Jared Golf. 1612 01:31:46,640 --> 01:31:50,000 Speaker 1: Okay, all right, you could do some things there. 1613 01:31:49,960 --> 01:31:51,920 Speaker 3: I wish you I had them in the game today. 1614 01:31:52,160 --> 01:31:53,160 Speaker 1: You could do some things there. 1615 01:31:53,160 --> 01:31:55,000 Speaker 3: It's safe to say that I lost that game with 1616 01:31:55,160 --> 01:31:56,439 Speaker 3: Joe Burrow as my quarterback. 1617 01:31:56,600 --> 01:32:01,480 Speaker 2: Yep, yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah. 1618 01:32:01,640 --> 01:32:03,120 Speaker 1: You know how you and I are both in too 1619 01:32:03,120 --> 01:32:03,759 Speaker 1: many leagues. 1620 01:32:03,960 --> 01:32:06,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I got a good day for me. 1621 01:32:07,360 --> 01:32:11,519 Speaker 2: Joe Joe, Joe, Joe's my quarterback in two oh gosh, 1622 01:32:11,760 --> 01:32:13,360 Speaker 2: in two of them. 1623 01:32:13,280 --> 01:32:15,759 Speaker 1: And uh and uh and one of them? 1624 01:32:16,439 --> 01:32:19,400 Speaker 2: Is is that that two quarterback thing that I do? 1625 01:32:19,960 --> 01:32:21,160 Speaker 2: You want to know who the other one is?

Guess what 1632 01:32:39,120 --> 01:32:41,200 Speaker 2: the backup is? Matt Stafford. 1633 01:32:41,520 --> 01:32:43,960 Speaker 3: He's my only healthy one, and he. 1634 01:32:44,080 --> 01:32:46,800 Speaker 1: Was the one we spent all August thinking. 1635 01:32:46,640 --> 01:32:46,800 Speaker 2: Was. 1636 01:32:49,160 --> 01:32:49,800 Speaker 3: I hit away? 1637 01:32:50,280 --> 01:32:52,080 Speaker 1: So stupid? What are we doing? 1638 01:32:52,680 --> 01:32:54,880 Speaker 3: What are we doing in our lives?

He almost fell out 1647 01:33:30,200 --> 01:33:30,799 Speaker 3: of his chip. 1648 01:33:31,479 --> 01:33:34,519 Speaker 2: I told him before the game, and to his credit, 1649 01:33:34,680 --> 01:33:36,640 Speaker 2: he agreed with me. He didn't a homer take me. 1650 01:33:37,560 --> 01:33:39,880 Speaker 2: I'm like, I don't know about your dudes, man. I 1651 01:33:39,960 --> 01:33:42,559 Speaker 2: know they won last week, but I don't know about 1652 01:33:42,600 --> 01:33:45,040 Speaker 2: your dudes, and I don't really like tonight for them. 1653 01:33:45,840 --> 01:33:47,360 Speaker 1: And there's a long way to go. 1654 01:33:48,200 --> 01:33:50,639 Speaker 2: This actually is right about the time they started playing 1655 01:33:50,640 --> 01:33:54,160 Speaker 2: football on Monday night. About halfway through the third quarter. 1656 01:33:54,800 --> 01:33:58,120 Speaker 2: They woke up and maybe they will hear too. But 1657 01:33:58,520 --> 01:34:00,559 Speaker 2: sleep is the right word. It's been a lot of 1658 01:34:00,560 --> 01:34:01,840 Speaker 2: it here so far into Viking. 1659 01:34:01,880 --> 01:34:02,120 Speaker 1: See. 1660 01:34:02,160 --> 01:34:04,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not not very not very entertaining. 1661 01:34:05,200 --> 01:34:06,800 Speaker 6: All it takes as a touchdown all of a sudden 1662 01:34:06,800 --> 01:34:09,200 Speaker 6: they're back in it, though, guys, So let's hope and see. 1663 01:34:09,600 --> 01:34:11,439 Speaker 1: Maybe they should trade for Kirk cousins. 1664 01:34:11,760 --> 01:34:14,320 Speaker 3: Oh please think about that. 1665 01:34:14,560 --> 01:34:17,360 Speaker 7: Oh please, No, I don't want to beg but maybe 1666 01:34:17,400 --> 01:34:18,080 Speaker 7: he would win this. 1667 01:34:18,040 --> 01:34:23,360 Speaker 1: Game by you like that?

I knew they would. 1695 01:35:55,280 --> 01:35:58,000 Speaker 3: I actually thought it would be a bounce back year 1696 01:35:58,040 --> 01:36:01,800 Speaker 3: for them offensively. Defensively, they carried a mantle for them 1697 01:36:01,880 --> 01:36:05,479 Speaker 3: last year, had a top five defense, which Patrick Mahomes needed. 1698 01:36:05,680 --> 01:36:09,719 Speaker 3: And remember he didn't even make the Pro Bowl because 1699 01:36:09,720 --> 01:36:13,080 Speaker 3: his numbers were extremely pedestrian, although they made it to 1700 01:36:13,120 --> 01:36:17,720 Speaker 3: the Super Bowl. But I just didn't expect it to 1701 01:36:17,760 --> 01:36:22,000 Speaker 3: be like this. I the Colts and Daniel Jones did 1702 01:36:22,040 --> 01:36:29,320 Speaker 3: not see this coming one of them at all. Uh. 1703 01:36:29,400 --> 01:36:36,639 Speaker 3: But that's the two glaring ones that that stick out 1704 01:36:36,720 --> 01:36:36,920 Speaker 3: to me. 1705 01:36:37,040 --> 01:36:42,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, Like, I mean, the Bills are good, we had 1706 01:36:42,600 --> 01:36:43,920 Speaker 2: that nailed it, yep. 1707 01:36:45,240 --> 01:36:49,960 Speaker 3: I didn't think the Cowboys would be you know, well. 1708 01:36:49,760 --> 01:36:50,479 Speaker 1: What are they? 1709 01:36:50,640 --> 01:36:55,920 Speaker 3: I mean they kind of I don't know, we don't 1710 01:36:55,920 --> 01:37:00,639 Speaker 3: know what they are right right, but like flashy and and. 1711 01:37:02,520 --> 01:37:04,960 Speaker 1: What's the right word, just. 1712 01:37:05,040 --> 01:37:12,599 Speaker 3: We not buttoned up rights. 1713 01:37:11,680 --> 01:37:16,120 Speaker 1: They're fast food. They're fast food. You go there sometimes 1714 01:37:16,880 --> 01:37:17,840 Speaker 1: it's really. 1715 01:37:17,560 --> 01:37:19,600 Speaker 2: Fun and then you come home and you're like, oh 1716 01:37:19,680 --> 01:37:21,000 Speaker 2: my god, I feel like crap. 1717 01:37:21,240 --> 01:37:24,280 Speaker 3: That's watching What is it the Green Bay Packers. 1718 01:37:24,520 --> 01:37:26,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's one of mine. But you go ahead, what 1719 01:37:26,920 --> 01:37:27,320 Speaker 1: do you see? 1720 01:37:27,439 --> 01:37:27,519 Speaker 2: No? 1721 01:37:27,680 --> 01:37:29,800 Speaker 3: You you speak on them because I've been speaking, So 1722 01:37:29,880 --> 01:37:30,760 Speaker 3: you speak on them, and I. 1723 01:37:30,880 --> 01:37:34,720 Speaker 2: Well, I told you, and I'm gonna call myself out 1724 01:37:34,800 --> 01:37:36,720 Speaker 2: right here. I think it was three weeks before the 1725 01:37:36,760 --> 01:37:41,000 Speaker 2: season and and and I'm not someone that falls for 1726 01:37:41,080 --> 01:37:44,200 Speaker 2: the preseason trap. I don't get excited by oh he 1727 01:37:44,280 --> 01:37:48,280 Speaker 2: looked good and he didn't look good. But something about 1728 01:37:48,479 --> 01:37:53,160 Speaker 2: the injury situation they were facing, something about just everything 1729 01:37:53,240 --> 01:37:56,280 Speaker 2: that I was watching throughout the month of August looked 1730 01:37:56,920 --> 01:37:59,240 Speaker 2: out of sync. So I didn't think they were a 1731 01:37:59,280 --> 01:38:03,280 Speaker 2: bad team, but I'm like, ah, that feel like they're 1732 01:38:03,280 --> 01:38:06,519 Speaker 2: going to start slow to me, and my god, they 1733 01:38:06,560 --> 01:38:11,680 Speaker 2: have not. And I definitely still thought Detroit was the 1734 01:38:11,720 --> 01:38:15,240 Speaker 2: class of the division. And I'm not one hundred percent 1735 01:38:15,400 --> 01:38:20,080 Speaker 2: off of that, but I have my doubts. Now Green 1736 01:38:20,080 --> 01:38:22,920 Speaker 2: Bay has not left their home confines yet. That's important 1737 01:38:22,920 --> 01:38:27,600 Speaker 2: to me. They will obviously, though the opponents over the 1738 01:38:27,600 --> 01:38:30,880 Speaker 2: next few weeks are not the most daunting things ever. 1739 01:38:30,960 --> 01:38:32,960 Speaker 2: I know, in a couple of weeks they will play 1740 01:38:33,080 --> 01:38:35,679 Speaker 2: right here in front of us with the Micah Parsons 1741 01:38:35,680 --> 01:38:37,439 Speaker 2: Bowl two weeks from tonight. 1742 01:38:37,840 --> 01:38:39,920 Speaker 1: It's going to be the Packers and the Cowboys. That'll 1743 01:38:39,960 --> 01:38:40,559 Speaker 1: be interesting. 1744 01:38:41,439 --> 01:38:44,400 Speaker 2: But to take care of those two opponents right out 1745 01:38:44,439 --> 01:38:47,920 Speaker 2: of the gate, Detroit and Washington, and do so as 1746 01:38:47,960 --> 01:38:51,960 Speaker 2: convincingly as they did not only tells me that team 1747 01:38:52,200 --> 01:38:55,040 Speaker 2: is in sync and is very good. But I'm really 1748 01:38:55,080 --> 01:38:59,559 Speaker 2: hearing all of the roster construction conversations out and about 1749 01:38:59,640 --> 01:39:04,360 Speaker 2: right now about Green Bay because I think that they're 1750 01:39:04,400 --> 01:39:07,120 Speaker 2: not just ready to play right now, They're going to 1751 01:39:07,160 --> 01:39:10,120 Speaker 2: be ready to play for a long time. They have 1752 01:39:10,240 --> 01:39:14,920 Speaker 2: drafted well, they have positioned themselves financially well, they have 1753 01:39:15,040 --> 01:39:19,280 Speaker 2: paid Jordan Love, and they ephrom They are one of, 1754 01:39:19,479 --> 01:39:22,759 Speaker 2: if not the best team out there, I guess, along 1755 01:39:22,800 --> 01:39:27,000 Speaker 2: with the Ravens and Bills, who have not fallen for 1756 01:39:27,160 --> 01:39:30,240 Speaker 2: this stupid thirty to forty million dollar receiver thing. 1757 01:39:31,439 --> 01:39:33,400 Speaker 1: And I think you're seeing it, That's what I think 1758 01:39:33,439 --> 01:39:33,840 Speaker 1: you're seeing. 1759 01:39:33,920 --> 01:39:36,800 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, because they draft well, they got a bunch 1760 01:39:36,840 --> 01:39:41,240 Speaker 3: of young, talented receivers and a young quarterback, and they 1761 01:39:41,360 --> 01:39:46,680 Speaker 3: allow them to grow together. They allowed them to, you know, 1762 01:39:46,840 --> 01:39:52,480 Speaker 3: figure it out, and it's it's doing wonders for their chemistry, 1763 01:39:52,520 --> 01:39:55,679 Speaker 3: their team. They went out and made a brilliant move 1764 01:39:55,760 --> 01:39:58,960 Speaker 3: right before the season getting Michael Parsons. That defense has 1765 01:39:59,000 --> 01:40:03,240 Speaker 3: different energy to it. And I started this year off 1766 01:40:03,320 --> 01:40:09,760 Speaker 3: saying I'm not sure about Jordan Love. The jury still out, yep, 1767 01:40:10,000 --> 01:40:13,280 Speaker 3: and he's calling them back in. I can tell you 1768 01:40:13,320 --> 01:40:17,400 Speaker 3: that just his first two weeks, I'm pleasantly surprised by 1769 01:40:17,600 --> 01:40:23,800 Speaker 3: his command of the offense, his accuracy, and they're just 1770 01:40:23,920 --> 01:40:27,000 Speaker 3: as as a team. They're playing extremely well. 1771 01:40:28,800 --> 01:40:30,880 Speaker 2: They have a lot of answers at a lot of 1772 01:40:30,920 --> 01:40:36,040 Speaker 2: key positions right now, That's what I see, and they 1773 01:40:36,080 --> 01:40:41,760 Speaker 2: are just kind of in a sound spot in terms 1774 01:40:41,840 --> 01:40:44,080 Speaker 2: of how they can attack that for the next few years. 1775 01:40:44,240 --> 01:40:46,960 Speaker 2: Jacobs has been another one of those running backs that 1776 01:40:47,040 --> 01:40:50,640 Speaker 2: you talked about last year that somebody didn't want and 1777 01:40:50,680 --> 01:40:54,680 Speaker 2: then ended up being just a complete bargain for the 1778 01:40:54,760 --> 01:40:58,439 Speaker 2: team where he arrived. It is right next to Derrick 1779 01:40:58,520 --> 01:41:02,519 Speaker 2: Henry and last year is Joe Mixon, and and and 1780 01:41:02,560 --> 01:41:03,680 Speaker 2: there were a lot of them. 1781 01:41:03,720 --> 01:41:05,880 Speaker 1: There are a lot of them out and about throughout 1782 01:41:05,920 --> 01:41:06,400 Speaker 1: the league. 1783 01:41:07,400 --> 01:41:12,599 Speaker 2: Who somebody, you know, Saquon Barkley being the headliner, somebody 1784 01:41:12,600 --> 01:41:14,760 Speaker 2: didn't really want to pay them. They let him go 1785 01:41:15,360 --> 01:41:18,880 Speaker 2: and they turned that other team into a really good team. 1786 01:41:18,920 --> 01:41:20,960 Speaker 2: And so I just see them as having a lot 1787 01:41:20,960 --> 01:41:24,280 Speaker 2: of answers right now, and they're impressive. I'll give you 1788 01:41:24,320 --> 01:41:25,920 Speaker 2: one more team though, that's on the other side of 1789 01:41:25,920 --> 01:41:28,640 Speaker 2: the ledger and they won today. 1790 01:41:29,200 --> 01:41:32,080 Speaker 1: But I'm super underwhelmed by the New England Patriots. 1791 01:41:32,320 --> 01:41:36,040 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and that'll sound silly because you're like, Mark, 1792 01:41:36,120 --> 01:41:38,519 Speaker 2: what did you expected something from the New England Patriots. 1793 01:41:38,520 --> 01:41:43,479 Speaker 2: I did. I did. I expected them to be well coached. 1794 01:41:43,560 --> 01:41:46,559 Speaker 2: I think Drake May is a good young player, and 1795 01:41:46,640 --> 01:41:49,799 Speaker 2: I know, boy he helped all your fantasy teams today. 1796 01:41:50,240 --> 01:41:51,599 Speaker 1: He did a really good job. 1797 01:41:52,439 --> 01:41:55,000 Speaker 2: But off of that loss that they had last week, 1798 01:41:55,280 --> 01:41:57,760 Speaker 2: which I did not think was very good, you then 1799 01:41:57,880 --> 01:42:00,400 Speaker 2: had the Miami Dolphins, who weren't he be able to 1800 01:42:00,479 --> 01:42:03,599 Speaker 2: run a play against the Colts come out and just. 1801 01:42:03,640 --> 01:42:05,320 Speaker 1: Move the ball all over the field on you. I 1802 01:42:05,360 --> 01:42:06,200 Speaker 1: know that they were home. 1803 01:42:07,439 --> 01:42:09,719 Speaker 2: The Patriots were lucky to get out of this one, 1804 01:42:10,400 --> 01:42:13,120 Speaker 2: and with Vrabel as their coach, I'm having a hard 1805 01:42:13,120 --> 01:42:15,400 Speaker 2: time understanding why their defense looks the way they do. 1806 01:42:15,479 --> 01:42:16,160 Speaker 1: They look awful. 1807 01:42:16,320 --> 01:42:18,599 Speaker 3: Yeah, it looks like they're trying to figure it out. 1808 01:42:19,400 --> 01:42:21,400 Speaker 3: The good thing about them is they're one and one 1809 01:42:23,240 --> 01:42:27,080 Speaker 3: and so you really just gotta They're really trying to 1810 01:42:27,120 --> 01:42:31,240 Speaker 3: figure it out. The biggest thing is, well, we didn't 1811 01:42:31,280 --> 01:42:36,759 Speaker 3: expect them to be anything, but they just don't seem 1812 01:42:37,320 --> 01:42:39,160 Speaker 3: I don't know, it's hard to explain. I put them 1813 01:42:39,160 --> 01:42:43,639 Speaker 3: in the same category as Carolina and the Miami Dolphins. 1814 01:42:44,680 --> 01:42:47,920 Speaker 3: They just have more talent and more expensive. They're more 1815 01:42:47,960 --> 01:42:51,000 Speaker 3: expensive with none of the results. 1816 01:42:51,240 --> 01:42:51,479 Speaker 1: Yep. 1817 01:42:52,479 --> 01:42:57,160 Speaker 3: It's just difficult to spend that level of money and 1818 01:42:57,600 --> 01:43:01,479 Speaker 3: watch that roll out onto the field every week. It 1819 01:43:01,520 --> 01:43:06,320 Speaker 3: will be like, I don't know, under paying Steve de 1820 01:43:06,400 --> 01:43:10,160 Speaker 3: Seger for him being the best in the business. 1821 01:43:10,479 --> 01:43:14,000 Speaker 7: Wit paying what guys? There's a game going on. 1822 01:43:14,000 --> 01:43:16,439 Speaker 3: But if not, they don't stop lying to the people. 1823 01:43:16,520 --> 01:43:20,720 Speaker 6: No touchdowns yet. Falcons and Vikings six for six on 1824 01:43:20,880 --> 01:43:23,360 Speaker 6: field goals combine. They're about to start the fourth quarter. 1825 01:43:23,439 --> 01:43:27,360 Speaker 6: It's twelve six Atlanta leading. There is one offensive star 1826 01:43:27,439 --> 01:43:28,240 Speaker 6: in this game. 1827 01:43:28,160 --> 01:43:29,839 Speaker 3: Robs University at Sexas. 1828 01:43:29,920 --> 01:43:31,519 Speaker 7: I'm sorry, what was it? What was the first name? 1829 01:43:31,560 --> 01:43:33,479 Speaker 1: Again? University at sex. 1830 01:43:33,520 --> 01:43:34,879 Speaker 7: Okay, so he's. 1831 01:43:34,640 --> 01:43:36,960 Speaker 6: Back to Bijon now. They went through the whole thing 1832 01:43:37,000 --> 01:43:40,960 Speaker 6: on the broadcast tonight. Apparently he likes Bijon better, not 1833 01:43:41,080 --> 01:43:43,400 Speaker 6: the relative, and he whatever. 1834 01:43:43,200 --> 01:43:43,960 Speaker 7: Make up your money? 1835 01:43:44,280 --> 01:43:45,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, what are we doing? 1836 01:43:45,360 --> 01:43:48,439 Speaker 6: B Jon Robinson with fifteen carries one hundred and nineteen 1837 01:43:48,520 --> 01:43:51,720 Speaker 6: yards rushing for the Falcons. They only have about one 1838 01:43:51,800 --> 01:43:54,519 Speaker 6: hundred yards of offense outside of him. And again, just 1839 01:43:54,560 --> 01:43:57,760 Speaker 6: starting the fourth quarter at Minnesota, Falcons up twelve to six. 1840 01:43:58,160 --> 01:44:02,080 Speaker 6: Philadelphia won at Kansas City twenty to seventeen. The Philadelphia 1841 01:44:02,120 --> 01:44:04,920 Speaker 6: offense didn't too much, but they're two and zero now 1842 01:44:05,000 --> 01:44:07,000 Speaker 6: and the Chiefs are zero to two. In fact, AP 1843 01:44:07,240 --> 01:44:10,479 Speaker 6: looked it up. What's the winning percentage for a team 1844 01:44:10,560 --> 01:44:14,000 Speaker 6: that did with the Eagles offense today in this century? 1845 01:44:14,520 --> 01:44:17,599 Speaker 6: When your team averages only three point seven yards per 1846 01:44:17,640 --> 01:44:21,520 Speaker 6: play or less, and you have no special teams touchdowns 1847 01:44:21,560 --> 01:44:24,280 Speaker 6: in the game and no defensive touchdowns in the game, 1848 01:44:24,840 --> 01:44:29,880 Speaker 6: your winning percentage is one forty five. And yet Philadelphia 1849 01:44:29,920 --> 01:44:32,599 Speaker 6: got a fifty one yard field goal from Jake Elliott, 1850 01:44:32,640 --> 01:44:35,880 Speaker 6: a fifty eight yard field goal from him, and they 1851 01:44:35,920 --> 01:44:39,400 Speaker 6: got the interception off of Travis Kelcey at the goal 1852 01:44:39,479 --> 01:44:42,720 Speaker 6: line to prevent a score, and Philly wins by three, 1853 01:44:42,880 --> 01:44:46,760 Speaker 6: twenty to seventeen. Indianapolis won a forty five yard field 1854 01:44:46,800 --> 01:44:49,760 Speaker 6: goal on the final play defeated Denver twenty nine to 1855 01:44:49,920 --> 01:44:52,439 Speaker 6: twenty eight. The Broncos had missed a forty two yard 1856 01:44:52,439 --> 01:44:55,720 Speaker 6: field goal attempt with about three minutes left. Arizona led 1857 01:44:55,760 --> 01:44:59,200 Speaker 6: Carolina twenty seven to three late in the third quarter. 1858 01:44:59,439 --> 01:45:02,439 Speaker 6: Then the Panther Bryce Young threw three short touchdown passes, 1859 01:45:02,439 --> 01:45:04,840 Speaker 6: but Carolina did miss a couple of two point tries 1860 01:45:05,080 --> 01:45:09,000 Speaker 6: twenty seven to twenty two. Arizona the final. A reminder, 1861 01:45:09,040 --> 01:45:11,760 Speaker 6: we have two games on Monday schedule, Tampa Bay at 1862 01:45:11,760 --> 01:45:14,880 Speaker 6: Houston and then at ten pm Eastern time, it's the 1863 01:45:15,000 --> 01:45:18,600 Speaker 6: Chargers at Las Vegas. Crazy game at Dallas today and 1864 01:45:18,720 --> 01:45:21,559 Speaker 6: overtime win for the Cowboys forty to thirty seven over 1865 01:45:21,600 --> 01:45:24,080 Speaker 6: the Giants. Brandon Aubrey tied it with a sixty four 1866 01:45:24,160 --> 01:45:27,400 Speaker 6: yard field goal at the end of regulation. Baltimore sent 1867 01:45:27,439 --> 01:45:29,960 Speaker 6: the Browns to zero to two forty one seventeen to 1868 01:45:30,000 --> 01:45:34,120 Speaker 6: the final. Four touchdown passes for Lamar Jackson, and he 1869 01:45:34,240 --> 01:45:37,679 Speaker 6: throws the downfield ball all four of his touchdown passes today. 1870 01:45:37,680 --> 01:45:41,800 Speaker 6: We're targeting a receiver at least ten yards downfield. In fact, 1871 01:45:41,880 --> 01:45:44,719 Speaker 6: if you look it up last year plus this year, 1872 01:45:45,400 --> 01:45:50,559 Speaker 6: Lamar Jackson's thrown thirty two touchdown passes over ten air yards. 1873 01:45:50,680 --> 01:45:53,760 Speaker 6: That's way more than anybody else on the quarterback list. 1874 01:45:54,240 --> 01:45:57,280 Speaker 6: Cam Ward did not win at Tennessee. However, he did 1875 01:45:57,320 --> 01:45:59,800 Speaker 6: have an amazing play. The Rams won the game thirty 1876 01:45:59,840 --> 01:46:03,000 Speaker 6: three nineteen, but the number one overall selection cam Ward. 1877 01:46:03,439 --> 01:46:06,120 Speaker 7: If you saw the scramble and go this way, go. 1878 01:46:06,160 --> 01:46:08,599 Speaker 6: That way and scramble a little more and then throw 1879 01:46:08,640 --> 01:46:11,080 Speaker 6: it to the other side of the field touchdown. In 1880 01:46:11,160 --> 01:46:14,880 Speaker 6: the box score, it's a nine yard TD. They looked 1881 01:46:14,880 --> 01:46:16,760 Speaker 6: it up. You know, with next gen stats they can 1882 01:46:16,800 --> 01:46:20,679 Speaker 6: get all of this. He actually threw the ball over 1883 01:46:20,800 --> 01:46:23,120 Speaker 6: forty yards in the air from one side of the 1884 01:46:23,120 --> 01:46:24,960 Speaker 6: field to the end zone in the other side of 1885 01:46:25,000 --> 01:46:27,679 Speaker 6: the field nine yard touchdown. By the way, the Rams 1886 01:46:27,720 --> 01:46:29,760 Speaker 6: early in that game got a forty five yard TD 1887 01:46:29,920 --> 01:46:33,439 Speaker 6: run from Pukinakua, the wide receiver on a fourth and one. 1888 01:46:33,680 --> 01:46:36,840 Speaker 6: Detroit fifty two to twenty one over Chicago.
