How are we doing on 33 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: this fugazi Friday? That is essentially what I just witnessed, 34 00:01:53,920 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: because that Thursday night football game was uh was a 35 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: throwback of just a terrible product. The Bronco Sean Payton 36 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 1: absolutely curb stomp his old team blow him out. And 37 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 1: some thoughts on the Saints their coaching situation. Obviously their 38 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: season is over with the amount of injuries they have 39 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: and now with their record, they're screwed. Denver is not. 40 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: But some thoughts on Bow Knicks after having some really 41 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 1: really high hopes for him coming into the year and 42 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: then watching him play so far early on in this season, 43 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: especially the last couple nights. Didn't want to hit on 44 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: Brady and the broadcasting restrictions as well as Troy Aikman 45 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: had some comments about the Cowboys on local radio that 46 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 1: we're too kind essentially to McCarthy and his coaching staff. 47 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 1: And then Sunday Night Football, you got, what are the 48 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 1: Steelers going to do a quarterback? Are they really going 49 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: to start Russell Wilson and bench justin fields? Mike Williams 50 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 1: after Aaron Rodgers said that he ran the wrong route, 51 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: has just been mia for the week. They're trying to 52 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: trade them. Probably no trade value now Davante's there. It's 53 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: always something with the Jets, it really is. I hope. Well, 54 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: we'll get into it and Stucky will join us as well. 55 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: Mail bag will be Saturday, so it'll be Stucky. We'll 56 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: go over some gambling thoughts, a couple of games I 57 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: really like. Also got a little underdog parlay for college 58 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: football Nebraska Illinois in Georgia. If you want to do 59 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: money line, you can get pretty aggressive. You can get 60 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 1: like thirty five to one. Actually those three are seventeen. 61 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 1: If you want to add Tennessee Who's a Home Dog, 62 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 1: I think that gets you about thirty five to one. 63 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 1: But I think that my original one with Illinois, with 64 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: Nebraska in Georgia, it gets you to about seventeen to one. 65 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 1: That's money line if you want to take the points 66 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: a little safer. But I think I'm think I'm gonna 67 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: sprinkle to keep myself engaged on Saturday, but stuck you 68 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,119 Speaker 1: will join us, will be a little bit about about gambling, 69 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: as we do every week, and then, like I said, 70 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: mail Bag this weekend, subscribe to the podcast wherever you listen. 71 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 1: If you listen on Collins Feed, make sure you subscribe 72 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: to three and out YouTube page as well.

I was thinking watching the game the 89 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: night as the Saints season is over. I mean their 90 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 1: season is officially over on October seventeenth, million injuries. Half 91 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 1: their team didn't even dress for this game. They lost 92 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: another five or six starters during the game. You know, 93 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: it's most people, I would say my age. If you 94 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: haven't been married or in a serious relationship long, you 95 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: have probably been through the situation where you break up 96 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: with somebody and then you see on Instagram that they're 97 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,839 Speaker 1: dating someone new, or maybe you get a divorce and 98 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: you see that your ex wife is in a relationship 99 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 1: and it hurts. It stings, even if you don't even 100 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: like them that much. But there is just this emotional 101 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: toll that takes out of you when you go to 102 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: their page and you see him smiling, and maybe the 103 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 1: guys got more money than you, maybe he's better looking 104 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 1: than you. But it's still only on the internet. In 105 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: any moment you want, you can turn it off. There 106 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: has to be a different feeling than when she comes 107 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 1: to pick up the kids in his range rover, or 108 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,600 Speaker 1: if you're sitting at dinner and they pull up right 109 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: next to you, like that would really suck. And I 110 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,280 Speaker 1: felt for the Saints fans tonight because listen, he quit 111 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: on you. He said, I didn't want your job anymore. 112 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,480 Speaker 1: A couple years later, he goes to a much richer owner, 113 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 1: to a more more quee NFL franchise. Now he has 114 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,599 Speaker 1: his young quarterback and he comes into your house on 115 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:39,839 Speaker 1: Drew Brees's night, this being Sean Payton, when he shows 116 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: up for a luncheon in the middle of the day 117 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: wearing a Broncos jersey no fuck's given, which I appreciate, 118 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: and just kicks the living crap out of you and 119 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 1: just ruins. Listen, I was very, very hopeful for this team. 120 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,799 Speaker 1: I can't even begin to judge. Whatever the hell roster 121 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 1: they're rolling out. They have no chance when they lose 122 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: all these wide receivers, Taysom Hill, the offensive lineman, it's 123 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 1: their starting quarterback. It's over. But even if you factor 124 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 1: in all the different variables and understand the context, it's 125 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 1: another thing to watch Sean Payton kick your ass and 126 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: he left you with Dennis Allen. You know, And this 127 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 1: is the thing I went back and forth on gambling 128 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: on the Saints to make the playoffs slash win the Division, 129 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: two separate bets that are both clearly losers. Is that 130 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: Sean Payton, like his guy was Dennis Allen. And the 131 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: reason he's your head coach is really because Sean Payton 132 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: just picked up and left and you just hired him 133 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: because he was there and it was easy, and he's 134 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: been atrocious. And we're getting a bow Nicks here in 135 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 1: a second. But Richard Sherman went off at halftime calling 136 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 1: out the Saints, essentially quitting on their head coach, and 137 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: I agree to a point. I also think they're just 138 00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: rolling out such scrub players. But as the game went on, 139 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: I think there were some parallels to the game we 140 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: saw the other day in London where guys clearly quit. 141 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 1: And you know, we say this a lot in the NBA, 142 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 1: I mean half the NBA games by the second half, like, 143 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: no one's trying. It just doesn't matter who knows. In 144 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 1: baseball they play seven hundred games, how often, guys are 145 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 1: just kind of going through the motions. In football for 146 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,559 Speaker 1: the most part, because it's such a violent game, because 147 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 1: your contracts are rarely guaranteed long, you're just constantly fighting 148 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: for your ass. You're just constantly in survival mode. You're 149 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 1: just constantly trying to keep your head above water. And 150 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 1: in a game, like most guys try really hard no 151 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: matter what. And as that game went on, I'm like, 152 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 1: I think Richard's kind of got a point. I mean, guys, 153 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 1: because listen, I don't think Tyron Matthew dropped the interception 154 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 1: because he's trying to get Dennis Allen fired. I just 155 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 1: think maybe he lost his concentration, maybe just not that 156 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: end of the game. Maybe they just realized they got 157 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: no shot before the ball even kicked off. But as 158 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: that game went on, guys were over it. They're not 159 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 1: even trying, which is something and one of the main 160 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:12,560 Speaker 1: reasons the NFL is such, you know, has become such 161 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: a big deal and laughed all these other team sports 162 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 1: because they don't have to worry about that. Guys constantly try. 163 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 1: You might not win, you might not be good, but 164 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:22,559 Speaker 1: the effort's always there. And you're watching that tonight, you're like, 165 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 1: this ain't good. And while Sean Payton's got a good 166 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,439 Speaker 1: gig making a ton of money, he's got a young quarterback. 167 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: Now they got a long way to go. The Saints 168 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 1: probably should fire their coach tomorrow morning. I would give 169 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:40,359 Speaker 1: Gary Kubiak son Clint Kubiak might just be time to 170 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 1: give him the second half of the season and give 171 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:47,839 Speaker 1: him a trial run. Now, I'm not acting like you're 172 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: gonna strike oil with this, but after two games everyone 173 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 1: was talking about him becoming a head coach somewhere else. 174 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: Obviously he knows what he's doing offensively. But if you 175 00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: fire Dennis Allen at the end of the season, you 176 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 1: would interview guys like him. So you already got him 177 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 1: on your staff now is he ready? I don't know 178 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: why not give it a trial run? What else do 179 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: you have to lose more games, more players to injury 180 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 1: To me the move after watching that performance and guys 181 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: clearly tapping out as the game was going on, which 182 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:26,199 Speaker 1: again I don't totally blame veteran players when they look 183 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 1: around and they go, we got no shot, Like it's 184 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: easy to say I would have fought till the bitter end. Well, 185 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 1: here's a butter knife. Go to a gunfight, because that's 186 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: essentially what that game was for a lot of the guys. 187 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,959 Speaker 1: But we have a long resume now for being a 188 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: head coach. I was like, well, he coached the Raiders 189 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 1: when they're okay. Well, now he's coached Saints and it 190 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: just constantly looks the same. They're obviously not gonna win. 191 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 1: This guy was already coaching for his job coming into 192 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: this season. Give Kubiak a trial run, see what he's got. 193 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 1: Maybe you'll like it, and maybe you'll feel comfortable, because again, 194 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:00,200 Speaker 1: these would be the type guys that you interviewed you 195 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: at season to then. So it would not shock me 196 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 1: if by the time we've woken up or maybe this weekend, 197 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 1: that Dennis Allen is relieved of his duties. And this 198 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: is not something like I'm not here acting like I 199 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 1: don't really care because this team now with these injuries, 200 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: is completely irrelevant. I'm just speaking if I was a 201 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: Saints fan, that's what I would want. Let's see what 202 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 1: Kubiak has. If I was in the front office and 203 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 1: I was Mickey Loomis or I was one of the 204 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: you know, the Benson family members, like what are we doing? 205 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: What is the point? Because after a night like tonight 206 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 1: when Sean Payton and the Broncos embarrass us on Drew 207 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: Brees night, when he's trying to do the chant, I 208 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: mean the chant. If you had a chance to look 209 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 1: on social media, Drew Brees on Wednesday posted this chant 210 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 1: that he wanted the fans to do, and it's it's 211 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 1: has to be one of the more complicated back and 212 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 1: forth in the history of chance. And I watched him 213 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: attempt to execute it at halftime. It's hard to tell 214 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 1: because of the audio, but I just think he got 215 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,719 Speaker 1: a little over aggressive on his attitude to be a 216 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: you know, to pump up the crowd. It's like one two, 217 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 1: It's like he talks, they talk, and he goes to 218 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: like twelve. A lot going on, but man, tough to 219 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: be a Saints fan, tough to be a Saints future 220 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: backer to begin the season. But it's over. I think 221 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 1: when we look at the Broncos and Bo Nicks, I 222 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 1: might have got a little overhyped and over excited during 223 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 1: the preseason because bo nix Is has looked all over 224 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 1: the map this regular season. It's why with me and 225 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: Colin were talking on Sunday and we were talking about 226 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: his party list of taking him over bow Nicks. Listen, 227 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 1: I wouldn't have taken half the guys he took well 228 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: before we got to bow Knicks over Purty, but you 229 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: could not take Purdy or excuse me, bo Nicks over Purty. 230 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 1: On October seventeenth, twenty twenty four, they're playing a different sport, 231 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 1: but they had Drew Brees in the booth and obviously 232 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 1: he's tied with Sean Payton, and they were asking about 233 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 1: bow Knicks and he said, like, he does some things 234 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: really really well, clearly movement, throwing on the move and 235 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: being able to dial up run plays for him. And 236 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,479 Speaker 1: then right away it was like a third down play. 237 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 1: They dialed one up for bow Knicks and he got 238 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 1: like twenty five yards down like the two or three 239 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 1: yard line. He clearly is a really good athlete, but 240 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 1: when you watch him in the pocket where you watch 241 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: him have to be comfortable making throws down the field. 242 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 1: It's all over the map. There were a couple passes 243 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 1: tonight that looked like he started ten games in his career. 244 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: No one in the history of college football has more starts. 245 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 1: And it's not like this guy played at cal Pauly 246 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: and UC Davis. This guy played at Auburn and then Oregon. 247 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: This guy was in bright Light's big moment games in 248 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,079 Speaker 1: front of a ton of people, with a boatload of 249 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 1: people watching on television. So in terms of pressure, in 250 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 1: terms of just playing the sport, he's done it a lot. 251 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:17,680 Speaker 1: And you watch him. You did last week in the 252 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 1: first half this week, at moments during the game, even 253 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 1: though the Broncos were in complete control, he could have 254 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 1: played the worst game of his career and they still 255 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: were gonna win because New Orleans was not gonna be 256 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 1: able to score and the Broncos were gonna be able 257 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: to run the ball because the defense kind of was 258 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 1: over it. But this guy is a long way to go. 259 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: It's weird we talked about him and I'm guilty of 260 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 1: this too, And same thing with Pennix, Like, hey, these 261 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 1: guys are twenty three to twenty four year old players, 262 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 1: a ton of starts on their resume, plug and play starter. 263 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 1: Now it doesn't mean, right when you plug and play them, 264 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 1: he's gonna light up the world. But he's gonna look 265 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 1: rated to roll. And I'm watching him, I go he 266 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 1: actually looks more like a project. He just kind of 267 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: runs around. Sometimes sometimes he makes play, sometimes he doesn't. 268 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 1: There was a play tonight where he threw a ball. 269 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 1: There was a wide open receiver probably fifteen yards away 270 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 1: from then there was another guy probably twelve yards behind 271 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 1: that guy, and then there's this open turf and I 272 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 1: don't know what he was doing, but somehow he threw 273 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 1: it to the middle of both guys. They literally were 274 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 1: both wide open and he hit the turf in between 275 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: them both. And those are plays. And I'm rooting for 276 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: this guy. I want to see him be a good player, 277 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 1: but he's not remotely close And as someone that was 278 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: like interested in backing him from fourteen to one to 279 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: win Rookie of the Year, like, he does not look 280 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 1: like the other guys right now. Now, part of it 281 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 1: is the weapons on Denver, Like they got a long 282 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 1: way to go in this building process. But this is 283 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 1: a legit project for Sean Payton. This is a guy 284 00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:00,040 Speaker 1: like he has some elements. I think why when he 285 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 1: originally wanted to transition from Breeze to Taysom Hill. The 286 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 1: problem is Taysom couldn't throw, and Taysom eventually, I know 287 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: he's injured. Now landed at the right position, this hybrid 288 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 1: full back, tight end, running back thing. He's not a quarterback, 289 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 1: but he's a football player. Bo Nick shows me enough 290 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: where I was like, yeah, I think he's gonna be 291 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: a quarterback. I mean, obviously he's a quarterback, but I'm 292 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: not confident, like how good the guy's gonna be. Now, 293 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 1: they already have a pretty good running game. The wide receiver, 294 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: that'll be a position I would imagine they invest in 295 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 1: in the offseason slash, you know, free agency and in 296 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: the draft moving forward. But he needs to get a 297 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: lot better because for a guy, and sometimes this happens 298 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: with running quarterbacks, is sometimes in the pocket, like I 299 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 1: get it, you're pressured, you move, but sometimes like you 300 00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: just gotta take a step up and throw the ball. 301 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 1: And you saw a rattler doing this a lot tonight. 302 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 1: Obviously you don't want to get crushed in the pocket, 303 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 1: but sometimes you think you're gonna get and it's just pressure. 304 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: You got to move up. And these guys both kind 305 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 1: of take off, and it throws off the play. And 306 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 1: it gets back to when you have these quarterbacks like 307 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:14,360 Speaker 1: Drew Brees, for example, he could never run, so he 308 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 1: had to master the slides, the climbing in the pocket. 309 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:23,399 Speaker 1: That's where he dominated. But these runners go a little 310 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: pressure and then they try to leave and sometimes they 311 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,640 Speaker 1: break a big run and sometimes they run into a sack. 312 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: But what they often do, and this is what coaches. 313 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,199 Speaker 1: While they don't say this publicly, they say it a 314 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 1: lot behind the scenes. And I know I've spent a 315 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,640 Speaker 1: lot of time around him. It fucks up the offense. 316 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:43,400 Speaker 1: So I just I thought it would be a smoother transition. 317 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:45,960 Speaker 1: And I know they're four and three and it's obviously 318 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:51,199 Speaker 1: trending toward being pretty successful. But he's for them to 319 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 1: be like what I think he wants them to be 320 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 1: one day, like a playoff contender. And I'm not socking 321 00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: about a team that could like win nine games, maybe 322 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 1: snaking the I'm talking I got to build a program 323 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 1: that you can contend. He's got to get a lot better, 324 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,720 Speaker 1: a lot better. And for a guy that is a 325 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 1: much older player coming out of college with all those reps, 326 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 1: it's if you were of the side of the ledger 327 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:17,879 Speaker 1: that was like, Eh, I don't really see it. I 328 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 1: think this is kind of rich. I kind of see 329 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 1: what you're saying right now, because I've been a little 330 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:26,640 Speaker 1: disappointed with the play the last couple of weeks, and 331 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 1: you know, one was a loss and tonight was a win. 332 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 1: But man, he's got to calm down a little bit. 333 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,920 Speaker 1: So yeah, other than that, Denver, New Orleans. I saw 334 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: who's playing next week. The Vikings are playing the Rams. 335 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,920 Speaker 1: Hopefully the Rams can get a little healthy because sometimes 336 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,160 Speaker 1: these Thursday night games, it's one thing when you get 337 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,960 Speaker 1: a really good game, you know, Tampa, Atlanta, Seattle, San Francisco, 338 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:52,639 Speaker 1: and then you get Knights like tonight, You're like, is 339 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 1: this what it used to be like in twenty fifteen. 340 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:59,160 Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, he did a couple other quick things 341 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 1: before we get out of here, Tom Brady. Everyone made 342 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 1: such a big deal. Obviously it was because he was 343 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 1: officially given the go ahead that he was officially, you know, 344 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 1: a minority owner of the almost said Oakland Raiders, of 345 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: the Vegas Raiders, and everyone's like, look at all these restrictions, 346 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: Well we do about these things. Right before the season started, Remember, 347 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 1: so unless someone thought that he was going to get 348 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 1: denied as the owner of the Raiders, which clearly was 349 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 1: not going to happen. He's been abiding by these restrictions 350 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:39,439 Speaker 1: the entire time, and one thing listening to Tom like 351 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:42,679 Speaker 1: he's still trying to kind of find his way and 352 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 1: figure it out. He is not going to be an apeman. 353 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: He is not going to be a guy blasting people. 354 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 1: That is not his style. While that it was his 355 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: style as a player, he would ride your grass. Even 356 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning said like, listen, I'll do this, but I 357 00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: don't want to be critical of guys. When you were playing, 358 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: you were on everyone twenty four to seven, three sixty five. 359 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,880 Speaker 1: That's why we're so fascinated with you guys. But that's 360 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: that's not what they're gonna do, which is their prerogative. 361 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 1: So him not being able to do what go to 362 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 1: the facilities, Hey, he doesn't want you anyway. If he 363 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:16,880 Speaker 1: has to pick up a phone call and get these 364 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 1: guys in the horn, he will where I do think 365 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 1: he could get weird and listen, I don't know. I 366 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 1: don't have Tom Brady's bank account, so I don't know 367 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: how much money he ultimately needs he would clearly need 368 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:29,959 Speaker 1: a lot more if he ever wanted to purchase one 369 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:33,160 Speaker 1: of these teams outright for himself and be the majority 370 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 1: stakeholder in the squad. But to me, and this is 371 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: what I always about, Drew Brees, John Elway fit this bill 372 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,399 Speaker 1: and did it like they feel like guys like be 373 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 1: the team president, be the GM, just go all in 374 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:50,159 Speaker 1: on that. But if I'm another team and he's and 375 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: I start hearing or knowing that, he starts getting more 376 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: involved with Mark Davis as he should. If I'm Mark Davis, like, 377 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 1: I want your advice on every I want you to 378 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 1: be my close com off of us what I've been saying, Well, 379 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 1: if that does grow and the NFL is like junior 380 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:10,160 Speaker 1: high word travels fast, I think people are gonna start 381 00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:14,439 Speaker 1: getting uneasy, even though he's not allowed, like even with 382 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,920 Speaker 1: this creepy in there talking to him, So it's it's 383 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,680 Speaker 1: a very slippery slope. I understand why Tom accepted the job. 384 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 1: They gave him three hundred and seventy five million dollars 385 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 1: or whatever. He's getting paid three hundred and seventy five 386 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 1: fucking million dollars to call these games, doesn't matter if 387 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 1: he's good or not, probably help him make more purchases, 388 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: invest that money to try to grow it to you know, 389 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 1: purchase more percentage of the team. But I could see 390 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 1: if I was on another team, I would just it's 391 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 1: just a bizarre situation and just my for my, uh 392 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 1: my own sake. What I hope he does. I really 393 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:51,880 Speaker 1: hope he kind of takes on a John Lway roll 394 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 1: and just runs the Raiders as like team. Just the 395 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:01,400 Speaker 1: head hauncho Mark Davis goes you can troll it, which 396 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 1: would obviously be the worst case scenario if you're Antonio 397 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 1: Pierce or Tom Telesco, because I'm sure Tom would want 398 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 1: to bring in his own guys. This is whenever I 399 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 1: say like they're not Aikman. Aikman will say things which 400 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 1: I appreciate because he's just being honest and like when 401 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 1: you see guys, this is what I kind of like 402 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,159 Speaker 1: about Bill every once in a while starting taking some 403 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,719 Speaker 1: shots like what do you think those guys sound like? 404 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 1: When the microphone and the camera is not on. We 405 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,479 Speaker 1: all kind of talk the same about people in our 406 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: industry right when we're quote unquote off the record, But 407 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,639 Speaker 1: only a small percentage of people talk like they do 408 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: off the record as they do on the record. Let's face, 409 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 1: society as a whole is pretty fake. Most people are 410 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: pretty fraudulent. They say things behind your back that they 411 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 1: would never say to your face. And you know, these 412 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,679 Speaker 1: these famous players that get into broadcasting, they're they're like 413 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 1: mister Jekyl and doctor you know, doctor Jekyll and mister Hyde. 414 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 1: They're two separate people. And Troy Aikman feels like a 415 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:06,439 Speaker 1: pretty open book. He's pretty transparent. And he went on 416 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 1: local radio in Dallas and basically said, the wide receivers 417 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:15,160 Speaker 1: for Dallas run the shittiest routes in the NFL. They're sloppy, 418 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:18,440 Speaker 1: they're terrible, and he doesn't know what's going on. He says, 419 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 1: you throw on the film of the Ravens, of the Packers, 420 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 1: of the forty nine ers, you watch the best teams 421 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 1: run routes how seriously they take him, and then you 422 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:30,479 Speaker 1: watch the Cowboys run routes. I went, damn, you know, 423 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,239 Speaker 1: if I was Jerry or Steven and listen, It's not 424 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:37,920 Speaker 1: like Troy has not said aggressive things about the Cowboys before, 425 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:42,119 Speaker 1: but that's a pretty direct reflection of McCarthy and the 426 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,480 Speaker 1: coaching staff. So and he was talking about CD. He 427 00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 1: was talking about the whole crew, how these kind of 428 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 1: run around do what they want, and then everyone complains 429 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 1: when the offense looks terrible. Now, their offense, they didn't 430 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 1: just lose forty seven to nine because their routes aren't crisp. 431 00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,119 Speaker 1: But I don't think Troy's just making that up. It's 432 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:01,879 Speaker 1: like it's hard to play quarterback when you don't exactly 433 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 1: know where people are gonna go, and then they start 434 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 1: bitching and moaning you're not throwing the ball. So these 435 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 1: some of these things, you know, drip drip, drip. If 436 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 1: you'r Mike, you better fix some of this shit. Because 437 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 1: Jerry's old. Now he's edgy. I I am still a 438 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:25,000 Speaker 1: little I How do I want to put this. I 439 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:29,680 Speaker 1: don't quite believe that they've just been winning games. They're 440 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 1: playing a home game. I want to say, a good opponent, 441 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,640 Speaker 1: a talented opponent. They haven't been good because they haven't 442 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,919 Speaker 1: been winning games. But this opponent you have to take 443 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:42,199 Speaker 1: seriously in the Jets, and you're just gonna start. Russell 444 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: Wilson a guy who literally got injured I think a 445 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 1: couple of days right before training camp because he was 446 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 1: doing some training method that hurt his calf, so he 447 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:56,200 Speaker 1: has been missed a ton of training camp. Obviously, he's 448 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 1: been in and out of practice up until the last 449 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 1: couple of weeks. And you're just gonna throw them out 450 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 1: there against the Jets in a pretty big game, like 451 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 1: this is a game if you're Tomlin and you're the Steelers, 452 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,119 Speaker 1: you can kind of put a nail in their coffin 453 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 1: and dance a little bit on their grave on Sunday 454 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,199 Speaker 1: Night football the most watched television show in America, and 455 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: you're just gonna roll out Russell Wilson in that environment. 456 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:22,159 Speaker 1: I started thinking today it actually probably would be easier 457 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:27,479 Speaker 1: to start Russell Wilson on the road if this is 458 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 1: really gonna happen. And I'm still very very i would say, 459 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,359 Speaker 1: hesitant to believe this. I think this is more gamesmanship 460 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 1: with a first time head coach, a guy that's also 461 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,480 Speaker 1: the defensive coordinator who's kind of learned on the fly. 462 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,920 Speaker 1: It's basically fucking with him, hoping to make him spend 463 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 1: a couple extra hours every night, make him a little 464 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:50,280 Speaker 1: more tired, make them feel a little more overwhelmed. But 465 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:54,200 Speaker 1: I've follow enough people that like I don't think that 466 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:56,880 Speaker 1: there's not a possibility. This isn't real, especially if he's 467 00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:00,639 Speaker 1: actually taken first team reps. I think if you do 468 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,879 Speaker 1: it at home and then the offense looks terrible and 469 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 1: he's a sitting duck back there and it's dink and 470 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 1: dunk kind of strategy that he's implemented these last couple 471 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,919 Speaker 1: of years, away Russell Wilson's plate is not working, the 472 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:16,119 Speaker 1: fans would freak out. They would immediately start booing and 473 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: chanting for Justin Fields. So I actually think the easiest 474 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 1: way to do it would be if you did want 475 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 1: to go to Russell, start Justin if the offense was bad, 476 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 1: then make a change, and with you paying both these 477 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 1: guys one million dollars, that feels like the most likely scenario. Again, 478 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:35,480 Speaker 1: where I stand right now Thursday night, my guess would 479 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 1: be that Tomlin has been messing with the Jets and 480 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 1: that Justin Fields will be the starter. But then you 481 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: see Justin Fields being asked about this question during the 482 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:51,000 Speaker 1: week and giving a very very mature answer but saying like, yeah, 483 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 1: if it does happen, I didn't play well enough. So 484 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:58,159 Speaker 1: maybe they've been on him hardcore in the meetings in 485 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:03,719 Speaker 1: the film room. So who knows. But I have a 486 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:08,400 Speaker 1: hard time closing my eyes and seeing Russell Wilson, who 487 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 1: has not played a snap this season, who's missed the 488 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: majority of practices so far since training camp started. Starting 489 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 1: on Sunday night against the Jets, who are listen, I'm 490 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: not a believer, but you'd have to be naive to 491 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,880 Speaker 1: think that you're not gonna get a very very strong 492 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 1: effort from the guys, and Russell's gonna beat that. Now 493 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 1: I'm not saying like I feel great, I'm gonna bet 494 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 1: the Steelers, but even Justin Field's beating that. But at 495 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:36,640 Speaker 1: the end of the day, he can just take off 496 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 1: and to me, Russell, like the running days are over, 497 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 1: so he's got to pick you apart. Well, they're not 498 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 1: exactly rolling out Plexico bursts and Antonio Brown right now. 499 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 1: So now my hope is I just think the Jets thing. 500 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:54,400 Speaker 1: It's I said it last week, been saying it all 501 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,679 Speaker 1: this week. It's got this NBA feel to it. You know. 502 00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 1: In the NBA, it's like they love claiming their player friendly, 503 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: Like Lebron loves shitting on owners that treat players shitty, 504 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 1: and then he just treats any teammate that he thinks 505 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,440 Speaker 1: isn't good enough the moment he can upgrade like shit 506 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 1: as well. He treats them exactly like an owner or 507 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,120 Speaker 1: GM would. And that's what Aaron Rodgers did this week 508 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 1: to Mike Williams, who the Jets I'm pretty sure gave 509 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 1: eight million dollars to this offseason, who's coming off of 510 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:27,159 Speaker 1: major injury, who may never be the same. But Rogers 511 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 1: crushed him for not running the wrong or the right 512 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,959 Speaker 1: route at the end of the Bills game, which I 513 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 1: have no issue with. Everyone's like, you can't you can 514 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 1: say whatever you want. Did he run the wrong route? 515 00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 1: Or do we have to fake it? Does he have 516 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 1: to see it like yeah, I don't really want to 517 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 1: talk about it, or can't he be like, yeah, I 518 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 1: shouldn't have thrown it and Mike Williams ran the wrong route? 519 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 1: Because if that's what's happened, isn't that what we always 520 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 1: want to know, like what actually happened? And football is 521 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,240 Speaker 1: the one sport it's like, well, unless you know the plays, 522 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: unless you know where he's supposed to go, unless you 523 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 1: know the hot rout, unless you know the checks, unless 524 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 1: you know the coverages. No, Aaron literally told you he 525 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 1: did the wrong fucking thing, which happens all the time 526 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 1: in the NFL. But then a day later they trade 527 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 1: for DeVante and then this guy's just been missing for 528 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 1: personal reasons. Obviously. I saw Schreker's like he's he's available 529 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 1: in trade. Well, I got news free and no one's 530 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 1: gonna want this guy at eight million dollars. No one's 531 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 1: trading for him. Absolutely, maybe in the USFL, but that 532 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 1: those leagues or those teams in that league couldn't afford it. 533 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 1: So I this is where if I'm the Steelers, I 534 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 1: try to get on these guys early and try to 535 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 1: get them to crack because they got so much going on. 536 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 1: You got some other big games like Houston, Green Bay, Right, Lions, Minnesota, Niners, Chiefs, 537 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 1: like one of these teams could get down early and 538 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 1: come back like they're all just normal squads, right, good squads, 539 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 1: good players. This Jets thing one has been a ticking 540 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 1: time bomb since the training camp started, But with every 541 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 1: day that went by this week, it's like more and 542 00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 1: more's going on. That's why I hope Tomlin, who really 543 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: good at having a feel for a squad and when 544 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 1: to push the right Buttons doesn't screw this up and 545 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 1: give the Jets an opening. Okay, back at it again 546 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 1: with my main man from the Action Network. You can 547 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: hear him on Big Bets on Campus, hear him on 548 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 1: the Action Network podcast. Find him on YouTube do a 549 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 1: little six pack every week. He's he's he likes to gamble. 550 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 1: I like to gamble. That's why we talk gambling. I 551 00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 1: I gotta be I gotta be real with everybody. I'm 552 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 1: feeling a lot better this Thursday than I did last night. 553 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 1: I was. I was struggling. I had a late night 554 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 1: and Thursday was not kind to me. But I battled 555 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 1: it out. But I feel good a week later. A 556 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 1: lot of boozing in the town of Nashville, in the 557 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 1: in the South, and you know, Stucky, how are we doing? 558 00:30:54,520 --> 00:31:01,680 Speaker 3: Good? Brother, Glad that you had a nice trip, and yeah, Nashville, 559 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 3: we'll definitely do that to you. Had a great one 560 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 3: of those weekends where I had a great weekend in 561 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 3: college one almost everything and then gave it all back 562 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 3: in the NFL. Actually I preferred that way. I mean, 563 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 3: I prefer to win in both days, but instead of 564 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 3: losing all day Saturday and then getting it back on 565 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 3: Sunday if you're gonna just because the Saturday college football 566 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 3: sweat is longer and there's so many more games. And 567 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:39,000 Speaker 3: but yeah, I as someone who searches for underdogs unders 568 00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 3: more often than not in the NFL, definitely not the 569 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 3: best weekend for me to be bet in the NFL. 570 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 3: It was the first time since the merger that road 571 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 3: favorites went nine to zero against the spread. So very 572 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 3: chalky weekend. 573 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:56,720 Speaker 1: And but when and when you say merger, you mean 574 00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 1: AFL nineteen seventy, so it's it's been. 575 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 3: A while last weekend ever since nineteen seventy four road favorites. 576 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:09,520 Speaker 3: So definitely a chalky weekend. So but lood for it. 577 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:13,760 Speaker 3: And it was a boring the college football state was 578 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:18,719 Speaker 3: so exciting that NFL Sunday sucks was the worst I 579 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 3: could ever remember. I mean, what was the most exciting game? 580 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 1: It was? It was bad. It was really really bad. 581 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 3: It was in my exciting moments. 582 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 1: Yeah it was. It might have been this morning game 583 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:35,560 Speaker 1: just because you got like as Doug Peterson canna get 584 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 1: fired on the field. I no, I don't know, You're right, 585 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:45,400 Speaker 1: it was. It was horrendous slate of ball for well, 586 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 1: part of it is a lot of the good teams 587 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 1: weren't bye weeks right, so you had, you know, Minnesota, 588 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 1: the Chiefs, the forty nine ers had just played. You 589 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 1: guys in theory were playing a big game. But Washington, 590 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 1: I I I commend them. They're much better than I 591 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 1: thought they would be. But it was one of those 592 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 1: games where never once did it cross your mind the 593 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:08,800 Speaker 1: Ravens could lose this game. But it was entertaining watch. 594 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:13,959 Speaker 1: But other than that, it was like I just I refused, 595 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,360 Speaker 1: you know, I got a big TV setup, like probably 596 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 1: you do too. I was like the Colts Titans, I 597 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:22,719 Speaker 1: don't have. I don't care about that. It's just not 598 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 1: getting a box, like I just don't care, you know. 599 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 1: It's just and I think as the season goes, you 600 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 1: start getting some of those like to me, the Giants 601 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 1: now become like I don't need to watch you anymore, 602 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 1: but this week you play the Eagles, I gotta keep 603 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 1: tabs on you. But if it was like Giants Titans, 604 00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 1: you know, or Dolphins Paths or even the Sunday game 605 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 1: for those of us that live on the West Coast beside, 606 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 1: I can just watch Drake May highlights after the game. 607 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 1: What do I need to watch two? I mean horrendous football. 608 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 1: I mean I would imagine they're both gonna be top 609 00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 1: four drafting teams, the Jag in the Patriots. I guess 610 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:05,040 Speaker 1: the Jags could rattle off a couple of wins throughout 611 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 1: the season, but pretty doubtful. 612 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 3: Yeah they could. I mean, it's it's bleak. I mean, 613 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:14,279 Speaker 3: we give London that game last week and then it 614 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:15,840 Speaker 3: was an all ended up being an awful game. Then 615 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,640 Speaker 3: we give them Pats Jags this week. It is a 616 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 3: good spot for the Jags just because they're used to 617 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 3: London especially and now they are adjusted. Last year they 618 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 3: blew out the Bills in this spot. So and then 619 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 3: you know, the Patriots have a first time head coach, 620 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 3: first time quarterback going there. But the Jags might just 621 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 3: be in quit mode. They they they could end up 622 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 3: with a top pick because they might end up they 623 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,759 Speaker 3: might end up with trading people. They might end up 624 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:50,600 Speaker 3: trading like the tradable. Yeah, so Evan Ingram, they traded 625 00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:53,719 Speaker 3: one of their defensive linemen to Seattle this week, so 626 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:57,840 Speaker 3: it might end up being a fire sail there in 627 00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 3: a division that looks over for Houston. So so yeah, 628 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:02,759 Speaker 3: it could get ugly in Jacksonville. 629 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 1: Well before we dive into the NFL. Do you know 630 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,560 Speaker 1: what sucks? And it's pretty clear I guess back to 631 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 1: the NFL, they are doing this like there's gonna be 632 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 1: a package. I would guess ten to twelve games every 633 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 1: year that morning kickoff. Like I don't know who's I 634 00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:21,400 Speaker 1: get why they're doing it for just more money, but 635 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 1: like that's gonna become a thing, like they're getting more 636 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:25,839 Speaker 1: and more aggressive. I didn't realize how I looked at 637 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,400 Speaker 1: the schedule yesterday, did you know? I mean you would 638 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:32,320 Speaker 1: know this doubleheader Monday night, but the second game is later, 639 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 1: Like what are we doing for those of you guys 640 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 1: that live on the East goes the kick doesn't kick 641 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 1: off till six, but there's already a game going on. 642 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:43,200 Speaker 1: So I not only are we gonna have this morning 643 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:46,680 Speaker 1: Sunday package, which is inevitable in the future as like 644 00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 1: like it's equivalent to like a Thursday package, we are 645 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 1: also clearly they are dabbling in this Monday double header 646 00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 1: like that is they're getting more and more aggressive. That's 647 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:59,319 Speaker 1: something that are we gonna have half the week's gonna 648 00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: have a double head because that that feels like we're we'reheaded, 649 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:02,440 Speaker 1: doesn't it. 650 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:07,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, or we're going to see or it could be end, 651 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 3: or we're going to see more Friday games. 652 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,000 Speaker 1: Aren't they legally not allowed to do that. 653 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, they only can do it before a certain date. 654 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:17,879 Speaker 3: You're right, at which the NFL, of course, they found 655 00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 3: that loophole. There's a there's a the NFL will probably 656 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:24,279 Speaker 3: find a way to get this change. But I think 657 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 3: that there's a law that protects hi staball protects high 658 00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:34,880 Speaker 3: school football and college all on Friday nights. But it 659 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:39,240 Speaker 3: says like it's the starts from the third or second 660 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 3: Friday in September until a certain date, which is why 661 00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 3: the NFL was able to squeeze the What was that 662 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:49,800 Speaker 3: I think the Packers. 663 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:51,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, the Brazil game Friday night. 664 00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:55,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, they squeezed it in like the day before that 665 00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:58,400 Speaker 3: that deadline started. So yeah, you might be right if 666 00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 3: they can't get that change. So yeah, I think that 667 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 3: that's where we're headed. I don't even I mean, my 668 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 3: I got I have to start winning more bets because 669 00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:09,399 Speaker 3: I got to afford all my cable bills. I mean, 670 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:12,799 Speaker 3: I have cable the packages that I paid for for 671 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:16,680 Speaker 3: all the different streaming services. My wife wanted to watch 672 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:18,960 Speaker 3: the show last night and I was like, I pay 673 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:21,400 Speaker 3: for every single streaming service we have. You have to 674 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:23,360 Speaker 3: have it. She says, no, you don't. It's on n 675 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:25,920 Speaker 3: MGM plus. I'm like, all right, just sign up for it. 676 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't even know what this is, but 677 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 3: now I have an MGM plus. Uh so yeah, and 678 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 3: then to get all the sports packages. It's insane. I 679 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 3: have YouTube TV for NFL Red Zone two, so it's crazy. 680 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 3: And yeah, this is where we're head at. The NFL 681 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:44,440 Speaker 3: wants to take over every single time stoting day possible. 682 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 3: It's uh yeah, it's they. They know that we're addicts. 683 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:52,279 Speaker 3: I mean, look, I was sitting there. I had no 684 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 3: money on the Jets Bills game. Yeah, the Jets Bills 685 00:37:57,239 --> 00:37:59,960 Speaker 3: game on Monday night one of the worst officiated games 686 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:04,799 Speaker 3: I've ever seen. Jesus watch. I couldn't turn it off 687 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:09,359 Speaker 3: and just it was it was a bad product that night. 688 00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:10,959 Speaker 3: Couldn't turn it off. 689 00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:12,680 Speaker 1: So you know where, you know where it hit me 690 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:14,799 Speaker 1: was not Sunday because at the end of the day, 691 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:19,200 Speaker 1: it is Josh Allen and Aaron Rodgers. It was or Monday. 692 00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 1: It was Sunday night, the Giants first the Bengals in 693 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 1: just a horrendous game, and I realized I was like, 694 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 1: you know, if I was selling insurance or I was 695 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 1: a farmer or doing something, I would still be watching this. 696 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:35,279 Speaker 1: I have the sickness in me, and in a weird way, 697 00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:36,960 Speaker 1: I kind of enjoyed it. Like there were a couple 698 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,360 Speaker 1: of plays I'm like, that was sweet, and it was 699 00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:41,719 Speaker 1: It's like, why am I doing this to myself? Like 700 00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 1: I the Bills Monday Night football has been You and 701 00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 1: I are similar age. I mean, such a big deal 702 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 1: growing up. It means a lot to me. But the 703 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 1: Sunday night game, like when you get certain matchups, you 704 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 1: get Ravens, Chiefs or you know whatever, it feels incredible. 705 00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 1: But then they they every once in a while they 706 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:00,520 Speaker 1: throw you a curve ball. You're like, what are they 707 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 1: doing to me? And then I find myself just enthralled 708 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 1: as I did. I'm like, is Brian dave Ball gonna 709 00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:07,320 Speaker 1: pull this off? Could Danie Jones lead him on a 710 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 1: drive as fucking Joe Burrow was up with the offense. 711 00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:10,920 Speaker 3: It's just it's a. 712 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:15,279 Speaker 1: Sickness, you know, we all have. Uh, let's just stick 713 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 1: with the NFL. We'll get to college a little later. 714 00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 1: Let's go with the What's What's sad is the headline 715 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:25,400 Speaker 1: game because they are just taking up all the oxygen 716 00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:28,920 Speaker 1: like they're the Dallas Cowboys or something. The New York Jets, 717 00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:34,279 Speaker 1: you know, I love the Bills. Last week, I don't know. 718 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 1: I think the game. Did the game end up closing 719 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:37,960 Speaker 1: it three? I think it originally opened to like two 720 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:45,960 Speaker 1: and a half, so they still covered. And listen, I 721 00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 1: think if you really look at it, that swing in 722 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:51,359 Speaker 1: the middle of the game that they score, they're up ten, 723 00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,120 Speaker 1: then he hits a fucking hail Mary, right, and then 724 00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 1: they get the ball, and then they drive down the 725 00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 1: field and then they miss a field goal. If he 726 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 1: misses the hail Mary and the fucking guy just hits 727 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:04,200 Speaker 1: a field goal like that, there's a ten point swing 728 00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:06,360 Speaker 1: in the middle of the game, and it's probably unravels 729 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,360 Speaker 1: and said it goes the other way and somehow the 730 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 1: Jets get a swing. I don't think the Jets are 731 00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:15,280 Speaker 1: that good now. DeVante, who like Amari Cooper, clearly quit 732 00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:19,759 Speaker 1: on their teams, which I'm pretty anti quitting. But if 733 00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 1: I was playing with Deshauna Watson, or I was playing 734 00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:24,399 Speaker 1: for the Raiders, Like it'd probably cross my mind too 735 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:26,840 Speaker 1: if I were those guys. So it's weird, Like I 736 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:31,360 Speaker 1: understand where they're coming from, but how often does a 737 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:33,879 Speaker 1: line I mean, I looked right before all these lines 738 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:39,880 Speaker 1: are presented by DraftKings. It originally was like Steelers minus 739 00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:43,400 Speaker 1: one and a half or two. Now as of Thursday morning, 740 00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:46,560 Speaker 1: it's Steelers plus two and a half based on a 741 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 1: wide receiver getting traded, like understandable money comes in as 742 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:53,040 Speaker 1: a week goes on. That seems pretty extreme to me. 743 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:56,319 Speaker 1: And it's not like Matt Lafleur's the coach or he's 744 00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:58,400 Speaker 1: coming back to Green Bay where they've been all along, 745 00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:01,560 Speaker 1: like this is a new place. We saw Olbrick, who 746 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:04,759 Speaker 1: was a little overwhelmed at that one part was at 747 00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:07,440 Speaker 1: this in the first half when like twelve men on 748 00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:09,360 Speaker 1: the field, he's calling the defense. Well, of course he 749 00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 1: is first game ever fucking being a head coach and 750 00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:15,120 Speaker 1: he's trying to be the defensive coordinator like Rogers, who 751 00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:18,359 Speaker 1: is clearly showing his age. Yeah he can still throw 752 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 1: a great out route, but he does not move. He 753 00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:25,920 Speaker 1: is getting peppered in this game. Obviously, the Steelers probably 754 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:29,759 Speaker 1: aren't some juggernaut. But if any team can hit this guy, 755 00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 1: Tyron Smith looks like me or you out there, and 756 00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,719 Speaker 1: what if they pepper this guy early and he is 757 00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:39,600 Speaker 1: just like because that's one area that it's clearly been 758 00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:41,920 Speaker 1: difficult for him to keep getting up. Now he has, 759 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:44,399 Speaker 1: but sooner or later someone gets the right shot on him, 760 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:47,759 Speaker 1: like he's forty years old. So just adding Devonte Adams like, 761 00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:51,320 Speaker 1: I'm not a huge Steelers guy. I think Tomlin's messing 762 00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:52,880 Speaker 1: with them. I don't know where you stand on this 763 00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:56,360 Speaker 1: with Russell Wilson. Maybe I'm wrong on this one, but 764 00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:59,279 Speaker 1: I think justin Field is gonna start. I just think 765 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:03,640 Speaker 1: the Jets, I just couldn't, in good conscious, conscious conscious 766 00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:08,200 Speaker 1: with them as a road team take them giving points 767 00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 1: like that. That seems crazy to me. They're two and four, 768 00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:14,040 Speaker 1: they have been losing for a decade plus. 769 00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, well, the first thing I the first 770 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,680 Speaker 3: time I said about going back to that hail Mary, Well, 771 00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:21,319 Speaker 3: it's amazing that Rogers is so good at this, but 772 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:25,120 Speaker 3: I mean this is They're an NFL head coach, Sean 773 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 3: mcdermot's a great defensive mind. It's stunned. It's stunning. To 774 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:30,720 Speaker 3: see in college and the NFL when there's a clear 775 00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:34,040 Speaker 3: I guess that wasn't the clearest hail Mary example. There 776 00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:36,360 Speaker 3: was a chance they would just throw it to the sidelines, 777 00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 3: but in that scenario they only rushed too. Rushing two 778 00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 3: against five offensive linemen is useless. 779 00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:47,160 Speaker 1: You might as well you might as almost drop eleven. 780 00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:49,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, drop everybody. You're never gonna get to the quarterback 781 00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:53,200 Speaker 3: and you're going up against a seventy five year old man. 782 00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:56,440 Speaker 3: Bring four or five. Don't give them time to wind up. 783 00:42:57,040 --> 00:42:59,800 Speaker 3: They also had a quarterback spy in the middle of 784 00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:02,200 Speaker 3: the field on him, Like what are we doing? Auburn 785 00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 3: did that against UH Alabama last year? Like who cares? 786 00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:10,200 Speaker 3: If he runs? And then you don't have then you 787 00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:13,279 Speaker 3: have little Damar Hamlin back there, like put it put 788 00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:16,200 Speaker 3: one of your you have Matt Collins, you have Coleman. 789 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:21,280 Speaker 3: Put what it's crazy? Like every detail should be covered. Yeah, 790 00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:23,439 Speaker 3: in the NFL, and that was just a complete mess. 791 00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:26,840 Speaker 3: Could have costs in the game the Jets give you. 792 00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:30,360 Speaker 3: I mean, the light has moved three points, which is 793 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 3: surprising just for a receiver, I will say, like he's 794 00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:36,520 Speaker 3: gonna have familiarity with the terminology of the offense like 795 00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,400 Speaker 3: with I mean, you know, the Hackett is not no 796 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:41,920 Speaker 3: longer calling the plays, but Rogers still has a big influence. 797 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:47,279 Speaker 3: He has chemistry with with DeVante. And the biggest thing 798 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:51,360 Speaker 3: is that you're Mike Williams has washed, so the upgrade 799 00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:57,239 Speaker 3: is potentially massive. The worry, as you stated, is just 800 00:43:57,480 --> 00:44:02,560 Speaker 3: Rogers can't really move and you have TJ. Watt. How 801 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,120 Speaker 3: much damage can he cause in this game? Because the 802 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:07,640 Speaker 3: Jets offensive line hasn't been great, that would be my 803 00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:10,560 Speaker 3: biggest worry, you know, and I will say it has 804 00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:13,279 Speaker 3: been three points, but it isn't a true three points 805 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,320 Speaker 3: because you're moving from one to you know, from plus 806 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:18,440 Speaker 3: one to minus two. So it's not the same as 807 00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:20,759 Speaker 3: if you were to move say across the key number, 808 00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:23,359 Speaker 3: if it went from like minus one to minus four, 809 00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:24,680 Speaker 3: minus four to minus one, et cetera. 810 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:25,320 Speaker 1: What you're saying. 811 00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:29,760 Speaker 3: The other thing is that the Steelers they have lots 812 00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:34,400 Speaker 3: of offensive line injuries. I mean, they've lost their projected 813 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 3: starting tackle already, they lost their best offensive lineman in 814 00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:41,719 Speaker 3: Daniels last week, and now they're gonna be without their center. 815 00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:44,200 Speaker 3: Zach Frazier, the rookie out of West Virginia has been 816 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:46,600 Speaker 3: one of the best offensive linemen in the NFL this year, 817 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 3: so they have a cluster of injuries on the offensive line. 818 00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:52,000 Speaker 3: I don't I would like the Jets here if Russell 819 00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:55,520 Speaker 3: Wilson starts number one, well. 820 00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:57,000 Speaker 1: Do you think he's do you think he's going to 821 00:44:57,120 --> 00:44:59,319 Speaker 1: or do you think I don't know. 822 00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:02,359 Speaker 3: It wouldn't make sense. I but I mean, Fields wasn't 823 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:04,600 Speaker 3: great last week. He's been pretty good this year. I 824 00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:06,719 Speaker 3: mean he threw a he threw a pick last week 825 00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:10,200 Speaker 3: that was horrendous that got overturned from a bad roughing 826 00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 3: the passer. He got built out like two or three 827 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:17,440 Speaker 3: times with roughing the passer calls last week. But I 828 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:21,239 Speaker 3: just think Russ is washed and you don't have any 829 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:23,120 Speaker 3: of the upside that Fields gives you with his legs. 830 00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:25,760 Speaker 3: With Russ now, he just like I don't, I wouldn't. 831 00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:29,680 Speaker 3: I don't get it. So I don't know, but I 832 00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 3: would like the Jets of Russco's maybe there will throw 833 00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 3: him out there and if it doesn't go well, you know, 834 00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:40,800 Speaker 3: you just go right back to field. So there's not college. Yeah, 835 00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 3: there's not much downside risk. So but the thing that 836 00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 3: I would worry about with the Steelers is that this. 837 00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:51,319 Speaker 3: I mean the defense what is obviously amazing, probably get 838 00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:54,960 Speaker 3: high spit back, but the back end of the defense 839 00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:59,160 Speaker 3: I still have questions about at slot corner too. They 840 00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:01,239 Speaker 3: got a rookie usn't really been tested yet. I mean, 841 00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:03,759 Speaker 3: you look who the Steelers have played this year. They 842 00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:07,920 Speaker 3: played at Atlanta. It was Cousins' first game. Historically quarterbacks 843 00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:11,920 Speaker 3: off an injury when not playing in preseason struggle immensely 844 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:13,800 Speaker 3: in their first game, and they just didn't have the 845 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 3: lineup under center. It was a disastrous game. Then they 846 00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:19,719 Speaker 3: played bow Knicks in his second start. Then they played 847 00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:22,520 Speaker 3: the Chargers when Herbert and all their offensive lineman got hurt. 848 00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:25,239 Speaker 3: Then they played the Colts who just just moved the 849 00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:28,360 Speaker 3: ball up and down the field, put up thirty on them. 850 00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:32,799 Speaker 3: You know. Then they played Dallas and that offense with injuries, 851 00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:36,400 Speaker 3: and then Vegas last week with Aidan O'Connell. And I mean, 852 00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:38,080 Speaker 3: then they lose the Dallas at home, and they played 853 00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:43,080 Speaker 3: Aidan O'Connell and the Raiders without their top two receivers 854 00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:47,440 Speaker 3: and offensive line injuries. Yes, they win that game by twenty. 855 00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:50,240 Speaker 3: They gave up three hundred yards in that game. Somehow, 856 00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:54,960 Speaker 3: yard wage was pretty much equal. There was a blocked punt, 857 00:46:55,280 --> 00:47:01,319 Speaker 3: multiple personal fouls, awful personal fouls on the Raiders, so 858 00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:04,800 Speaker 3: that game is actually closer. It's like the Steelers' schedule 859 00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:07,960 Speaker 3: has been very questionable. When you dig into it, Jets 860 00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:10,879 Speaker 3: will be the more desperate team here. But yeah, there's 861 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:14,319 Speaker 3: a chance to watch his rex this game. But I 862 00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:16,240 Speaker 3: need to see H's playing for the quarterback of the Steelers 863 00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:18,440 Speaker 3: because if it is, Russ isn't played yet this year, 864 00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:20,920 Speaker 3: so you can't expect some Russ there. Big doesn't have 865 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:24,520 Speaker 3: the upside of his legs, and the offense is still 866 00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:25,200 Speaker 3: really limited. 867 00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:29,719 Speaker 1: Okay, one of the headlining games is actually a really 868 00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:32,480 Speaker 1: good slate. You got Houston at Green Bay, you get 869 00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:36,000 Speaker 1: the Lions at Minnesota, and you have a Super Bowl rematch. Now, 870 00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:39,080 Speaker 1: Andy Reids twenty one and four off of bye, I mean, 871 00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:42,400 Speaker 1: he became a legend with that move. He was dominant 872 00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:45,760 Speaker 1: off of bye. And while he's going on the road 873 00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:49,160 Speaker 1: to San Francisco, they're kind of coming off of Mini 874 00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:52,319 Speaker 1: by And because the Chiefs played on Monday night, the 875 00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 1: forty nine Ers played on Thursday night, it's really just 876 00:47:55,239 --> 00:47:57,839 Speaker 1: a seventy two hour difference instead of a seven day 877 00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:02,280 Speaker 1: seven plus day difference, right, so it's not as crazy. 878 00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:06,000 Speaker 1: And if you remove two years ago, which I think 879 00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:09,960 Speaker 1: was like Pretty Party's first or second start, they got destroyed, 880 00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:12,759 Speaker 1: they got killed it. It was Christian McCaffrey's first game there. 881 00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:15,400 Speaker 1: Actually Jimmy might have been playing. I forget if you 882 00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:17,719 Speaker 1: look at the two Super Bowls when they've both had 883 00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:20,440 Speaker 1: two weeks to prepare for each other. The forty nine 884 00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:22,320 Speaker 1: Ers had a twenty to ten lead heading into the 885 00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:25,640 Speaker 1: fourth quarter in twenty twenty. Honestly, with like six minutes left, 886 00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:27,359 Speaker 1: they were in control of that game, and the Chiefs 887 00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:30,719 Speaker 1: flipped it last year. I mean they were leading the 888 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:33,040 Speaker 1: game with two minutes to go, like they had a 889 00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:34,600 Speaker 1: field goal lead, and Mahomes just let them and then 890 00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:36,799 Speaker 1: obviously it went to overtime. So it's like, when you've 891 00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:39,560 Speaker 1: given both these two teams, it's truly been a coin flip. 892 00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:44,680 Speaker 1: And I obviously to me because the forty nine Ers 893 00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:48,279 Speaker 1: fucked around and lost the Rams in Arizona game, this 894 00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:51,320 Speaker 1: game is really important to them, just you know, playing 895 00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:53,880 Speaker 1: for seeding. When you look at obviously, luckily for them, 896 00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:56,960 Speaker 1: the NFC North can only get one team, you know, 897 00:48:57,040 --> 00:48:59,960 Speaker 1: with a with a home field by like between like one, 898 00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:03,560 Speaker 1: two and three. But we'll see Atlanta and Tampa, you know, 899 00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:06,800 Speaker 1: have pretty big games this week. But the forty nine ers, like, 900 00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:08,919 Speaker 1: if you want maybe you won't be the one seed, 901 00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:11,160 Speaker 1: but you want that two seed. What do you think 902 00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:13,920 Speaker 1: twelve wins? Like you all of a sudden, you go 903 00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:16,160 Speaker 1: to three and four and you just like you just 904 00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:18,160 Speaker 1: you got to rattle off like four or five straight 905 00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:20,279 Speaker 1: victories to get back to where you wanted to be. 906 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:23,120 Speaker 1: So I like the forty nine ers in this spot. 907 00:49:23,560 --> 00:49:25,759 Speaker 1: The Chiefs obviously just don't need to win it. They 908 00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:28,279 Speaker 1: got a pretty big buffer, and maybe this is the 909 00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:30,719 Speaker 1: game that kind of lights the fire to make them 910 00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:33,640 Speaker 1: to make some sort of wide receiver move. But I 911 00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:37,280 Speaker 1: think the greatest number that obviously works in their favor 912 00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:41,200 Speaker 1: that Andy riidappha Bay is somewhat neutralized because the forty 913 00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:42,720 Speaker 1: nine ers played on Thursday Night football. 914 00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:45,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree. I'm glad to hear that you like 915 00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:48,200 Speaker 3: the Niners. I like them too. I bet them minus one. 916 00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:50,839 Speaker 3: It's scary going against Patch Mahomes's underdog, but it's it's 917 00:49:50,840 --> 00:49:53,640 Speaker 3: minus one. I mean, if you look historically Mahomes is 918 00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:56,120 Speaker 3: seven to zer against the spread when catching three or more. 919 00:49:57,280 --> 00:49:59,880 Speaker 3: And you know, during the regular season if the spread 920 00:49:59,920 --> 00:50:02,560 Speaker 3: is between three and three, so you say, okay, he's 921 00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:06,000 Speaker 3: just got to win the game. He's five hundred against 922 00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:09,680 Speaker 3: the spread. Last year he lost both games where he 923 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:10,839 Speaker 3: was in the spot. I think he was a one 924 00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:14,279 Speaker 3: point favorite at home to the Bills and lost, and 925 00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:18,040 Speaker 3: a one point favorite at home against the Eagles and lost. 926 00:50:18,719 --> 00:50:22,920 Speaker 3: So he's not completely invincible. And look last year, I 927 00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:24,760 Speaker 3: sat here and told you I'm not bet the Niners 928 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:26,399 Speaker 3: were two and a half point favorites in the Super Bowl. 929 00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:28,880 Speaker 3: I said, I'm not doing it, not betting against Mahomes. 930 00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:31,360 Speaker 3: They'll find a way to come back. The adjustments on 931 00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:33,600 Speaker 3: defense made the difference. I played the first half. That's it. 932 00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:36,360 Speaker 3: That line is two two and a half on a 933 00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:38,880 Speaker 3: neutral field. It's one now in San Francisco. And I 934 00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:41,600 Speaker 3: agree that by advantage is neutralized and the Chiefs are 935 00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:45,920 Speaker 3: significantly I shouldn't say significantly, but I think, you know, 936 00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:49,000 Speaker 3: materially worse than they were. 937 00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:51,359 Speaker 1: Rice is gone. The running back's gone, like Cko. 938 00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:55,760 Speaker 3: Rice is gone. There's no exposiveness in this offense. Kelsey 939 00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:58,799 Speaker 3: is traveling around the world with Taylor Swift. He's not 940 00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:00,480 Speaker 3: he's I mean, he's number one or older. We saw 941 00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:02,560 Speaker 3: him in the regular season last year, looked washed. He'll 942 00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:06,360 Speaker 3: probably find a way to you know, drink his his 943 00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:10,280 Speaker 3: his juice or whatever his regiment is, to get into 944 00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:16,200 Speaker 3: to shape. Not hitting anything nefarious, but he just in 945 00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:18,520 Speaker 3: the playoffs he turns into a different guy right now. 946 00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:21,239 Speaker 3: He is no burst of separation. The kelsey in the 947 00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:25,120 Speaker 3: playoffs was he was flashing. Now not so much. There's 948 00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:29,680 Speaker 3: no all there's no explosiveness in this offense at all. 949 00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:32,719 Speaker 3: All the exposiveness is on the forty nine side. I 950 00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:35,839 Speaker 3: also think the Chiefs defense just taking a step back. Now. 951 00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:37,759 Speaker 3: It might not show in the numbers, but I do 952 00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:41,800 Speaker 3: think that when they play competent offenses, they're really going 953 00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:44,959 Speaker 3: to miss snead on the outside. I think they're vulnerable there. 954 00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:48,680 Speaker 3: The run defense numbers look good, but I mean, look, 955 00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:52,000 Speaker 3: I'm here to tell you that they played They played 956 00:51:52,040 --> 00:51:55,960 Speaker 3: the Falcons who lost too offensive line, two starting offensive 957 00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:58,480 Speaker 3: linemen and the and by the way, the Falcons should 958 00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:00,400 Speaker 3: have won that game. They don't get two four downs 959 00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:01,680 Speaker 3: in the red zone at the end, and then they 960 00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:07,440 Speaker 3: dubb completely blown clear cut pass interference in the end 961 00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:10,440 Speaker 3: zone that I don't know how it wasn't called speaking 962 00:52:10,440 --> 00:52:12,600 Speaker 3: of pass interference if there's not a fourth and sixteen 963 00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:15,520 Speaker 3: pass in appearance after a Chiefs defensive touchdown. They lose 964 00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:19,799 Speaker 3: to the Bengals at home, and you know there are 965 00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:24,279 Speaker 3: Ravens tow away from potentially losing that game. So you know, 966 00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:26,479 Speaker 3: this team could easily be two and three, not five 967 00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:28,960 Speaker 3: to ozer. Their one win that came by more than 968 00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:31,880 Speaker 3: one possession was against the Saints, and you say, oh, look, 969 00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:34,839 Speaker 3: their offense looked a little a bit more confident. Well, 970 00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:37,560 Speaker 3: the Saints just gave up fifty two to Baker Mayfield 971 00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:41,759 Speaker 3: at home, so that Saints defense has issues. So yeah, 972 00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:43,760 Speaker 3: and the forty nine ers on the flip side should 973 00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:47,080 Speaker 3: be five and one. They're one loss at Minnesota, they 974 00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:50,759 Speaker 3: blow double they're three wins by double digits, and then 975 00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:53,600 Speaker 3: they blow that double digit lead against the Cardinals because 976 00:52:53,640 --> 00:52:57,640 Speaker 3: they their kickers hurt, and then they somehow blow that game, 977 00:52:57,920 --> 00:52:59,279 Speaker 3: and that they were. 978 00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:01,040 Speaker 1: Terrible in the red zone in that game too. It 979 00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:02,200 Speaker 1: was it was pretty embarrassing. 980 00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:08,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, they need I mean hopefully during the bye or 981 00:53:08,239 --> 00:53:10,120 Speaker 3: during their mini by Shanahan worked a little bit on 982 00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:11,839 Speaker 3: I know he doesn't like to, but work a little 983 00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:13,759 Speaker 3: bit on special teams because that that is one of my. 984 00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:16,200 Speaker 1: Nest in this game. Oh no, no, no. 985 00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:19,319 Speaker 3: Is the special team's advantage for the Chiefs. So yeah, 986 00:53:19,360 --> 00:53:21,080 Speaker 3: it's tough to bet against the Homes and like this 987 00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:23,640 Speaker 3: Chiefs team finds a way. But I think the forty 988 00:53:23,719 --> 00:53:28,480 Speaker 3: nine Ers super Bowl revenge more the more desperate team here, 989 00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:31,840 Speaker 3: and they just have the much better offense right now, 990 00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:34,799 Speaker 3: and I think a defense that's at least on par 991 00:53:35,400 --> 00:53:38,200 Speaker 3: with the Chiefs, so you know, and they're at home. 992 00:53:38,320 --> 00:53:40,600 Speaker 3: I think like this line should be closer to three. 993 00:53:40,880 --> 00:53:42,760 Speaker 3: So yeah, I bet the forty nine Ers. 994 00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:45,320 Speaker 1: It's funny perty takes a lot of shit when really 995 00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:49,520 Speaker 1: this season, like Kyle deserves it because the Niners, when 996 00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:51,600 Speaker 1: you think of like the best offenses in the league, 997 00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:54,080 Speaker 1: if you just ask a casual football fan, I don't 998 00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:55,919 Speaker 1: think the forty nine Ers would come out of their mouth. 999 00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:59,040 Speaker 1: And Baltimore obviously is like dominating right now. Number one 1000 00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:02,080 Speaker 1: on you know, average per game the Niners or second, 1001 00:54:02,560 --> 00:54:05,799 Speaker 1: he's had a Detroit, had a Green Bay, had a Tampa. 1002 00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:09,359 Speaker 1: Like their offense yard wise has moved the ball at 1003 00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:13,200 Speaker 1: will against everybody really except Minnesota, but their red zone 1004 00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:15,800 Speaker 1: offense up until the Seattle game when he threw a 1005 00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:17,800 Speaker 1: couple of touchdowns to Kittle. I don't really count the 1006 00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:20,840 Speaker 1: last run, but like a true when the game's in 1007 00:54:20,880 --> 00:54:22,359 Speaker 1: the balance, like can you score in the red zone. 1008 00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:25,359 Speaker 1: It's been bad and this notion they're like, oh, it's 1009 00:54:25,400 --> 00:54:27,840 Speaker 1: all Christian McCaffrey. It's like, well, you still got George Kittle, 1010 00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:30,800 Speaker 1: who's six foot three and a half. Juwan Jennings is 1011 00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:33,600 Speaker 1: a is a tall receiver, I use a great route 1012 00:54:33,640 --> 00:54:35,800 Speaker 1: runner and Deebo's like one of the great gadget players. 1013 00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:37,719 Speaker 1: So to me, it's it's on Kyle to like kind 1014 00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:39,680 Speaker 1: of dial of some of these plays in the Thursday 1015 00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:41,680 Speaker 1: night game Ryan Grubb. They didn't hit any of them, 1016 00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:43,919 Speaker 1: but he's like dialing up sweet plays. Guys are open. 1017 00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:46,120 Speaker 1: Gino's just missed a couple or you know, the guy 1018 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,880 Speaker 1: couldn't drag his foot but you could see. Like, I 1019 00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:50,719 Speaker 1: just think Kyle, for whatever reasons, it has been a 1020 00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:52,759 Speaker 1: little off when they've gotten close to the red zone. 1021 00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:55,399 Speaker 1: Maybe he just misses Christian McCaffrey that much, and it's 1022 00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:58,200 Speaker 1: throws off his game plan through the week. But they 1023 00:54:58,480 --> 00:55:01,480 Speaker 1: their problem has not been someone mnemic offense. It's been 1024 00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:05,880 Speaker 1: struggles scoring touchdowns, but moving the ball from the twenty 1025 00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:08,080 Speaker 1: to the twenty. I mean only the Ravens have done 1026 00:55:08,080 --> 00:55:08,880 Speaker 1: it better this season. 1027 00:55:09,440 --> 00:55:11,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, No, offense has been great. Party has been great. 1028 00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:15,640 Speaker 3: I mean just statistically, Party has been exponentially better than 1029 00:55:15,640 --> 00:55:18,480 Speaker 3: Mahomes this year. Part of that is just the weapons 1030 00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:22,120 Speaker 3: for Kansas City, the check goes out the tackles, there's 1031 00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:25,120 Speaker 3: still issues at boat tackle spots. So yeah, I trust 1032 00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:27,640 Speaker 3: the forty nine ers offense much more than the Chiefs here, 1033 00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:30,799 Speaker 3: and that Chiefs. The Chiefs run defensive numbers look a 1034 00:55:30,840 --> 00:55:34,440 Speaker 3: bit better. But like I said, the last three games, 1035 00:55:34,960 --> 00:55:39,000 Speaker 3: they faced the Chargers without their two tackles and are 1036 00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:44,239 Speaker 3: you know, hampered Herbert the Falcons who moved the ball 1037 00:55:44,239 --> 00:55:46,440 Speaker 3: on them, but they got two. Their starting right tackle 1038 00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:48,799 Speaker 3: in starting center went out in the first half of 1039 00:55:48,840 --> 00:55:52,640 Speaker 3: that game. And the Saints, who are missing multiple offensive 1040 00:55:52,680 --> 00:55:57,799 Speaker 3: linemen so their defensive line has been in as favorable 1041 00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:00,360 Speaker 3: positions over the past month as you can can be. 1042 00:56:00,560 --> 00:56:02,160 Speaker 3: So I like the Niners to get done at home. 1043 00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:06,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. Chris Jones. Chris Jones is the one problem as 1044 00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:07,720 Speaker 1: he was in the Super Bowl. You know, the guards 1045 00:56:07,719 --> 00:56:10,400 Speaker 1: and centers for the Niners can be a little iffy, 1046 00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:13,720 Speaker 1: But like you said, they're having tackle issues. I thought 1047 00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:17,160 Speaker 1: Bosa was a little throwback defensive player of the year 1048 00:56:17,280 --> 00:56:20,520 Speaker 1: level performance the other night in Seattle. Now he's got 1049 00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:23,479 Speaker 1: ten days, like that's a pretty big wild card. 1050 00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:24,759 Speaker 3: If the Chiefs tackles are. 1051 00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:28,080 Speaker 1: Just playing shitty, he could eviscerate them, right. 1052 00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:30,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, I would think that if you're into betting the 1053 00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:37,600 Speaker 3: awards markets, this would be the week. Now. Mahomes is 1054 00:56:37,719 --> 00:56:43,800 Speaker 3: usually really good at avoiding sacks, but I'm trying to 1055 00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:46,479 Speaker 3: pull up the awards. You can bet right now. 1056 00:56:46,719 --> 00:56:49,440 Speaker 1: You can bet like defensive player of the week, defense 1057 00:56:49,480 --> 00:56:52,440 Speaker 1: player of the year, So damn, you're getting pretty into 1058 00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:54,480 Speaker 1: the weeds here. You go to defensive player of the week. 1059 00:56:55,600 --> 00:56:59,640 Speaker 3: Like both uh is he's like fifteen to one now, 1060 00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:05,360 Speaker 3: so I mean, yeah, like wat is like even money, 1061 00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:09,240 Speaker 3: which is crazy right now, because you had Aiden Hudgson 1062 00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:11,320 Speaker 3: was gonna win it, like he just had to stay healthy, 1063 00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:14,560 Speaker 3: but he so he's out now. But I think both 1064 00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:20,040 Speaker 3: as the potential to potentially rise because this game will 1065 00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:23,080 Speaker 3: get all the eyeballs. He has a good matchup here. 1066 00:57:24,320 --> 00:57:26,240 Speaker 1: I think there's only two. I think there's only two 1067 00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:28,960 Speaker 1: or three games on the afternoon one o'clock. They're a 1068 00:57:28,960 --> 00:57:31,320 Speaker 1: couple of crappy one o'clock games. They were one twenty five. 1069 00:57:31,360 --> 00:57:33,720 Speaker 1: I mean, this is gonna be twenty million people. 1070 00:57:33,520 --> 00:57:35,200 Speaker 3: Watching, all eyes all eyes. 1071 00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:41,760 Speaker 1: Well, it's you know, the Hutchinson injury. That sucked to lose. 1072 00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:46,400 Speaker 1: To me, there's nothing like losing a player like just 1073 00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:48,880 Speaker 1: one of guys laying on the ground like that. It's 1074 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:51,680 Speaker 1: one thing, though if it's just a knockdown, drag out game. 1075 00:57:51,760 --> 00:57:54,840 Speaker 1: It's another thing when it's a massacre. Yeah, you know, 1076 00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:56,240 Speaker 1: it's just like it. 1077 00:57:56,520 --> 00:57:57,600 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1078 00:57:57,720 --> 00:58:00,160 Speaker 1: I think if you played the Lions in Minnesota they 1079 00:58:00,200 --> 00:58:03,400 Speaker 1: played ten times this versonal of Minnesota, that's good. I 1080 00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:06,240 Speaker 1: think the Lions would win like seven eight. I think 1081 00:58:06,440 --> 00:58:09,120 Speaker 1: because I'm a big believer in the Lions, I do 1082 00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:12,080 Speaker 1: think that that is a massive kick in the nuts, 1083 00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:15,680 Speaker 1: just emotionally. And you saw it. Jared Goff after the 1084 00:58:15,720 --> 00:58:17,800 Speaker 1: game give it to Dan Campbell calling him the rock. 1085 00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:20,560 Speaker 1: I mean, they this is gonna be this is why 1086 00:58:20,640 --> 00:58:23,800 Speaker 1: you you know, hired the Dan Campbell's the Tomlins, the hardballs. 1087 00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:26,720 Speaker 1: Really for the this is like their strength because this 1088 00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:28,520 Speaker 1: is the type of thing where you look around, he's 1089 00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:31,880 Speaker 1: clearly he's the best player on the team. Like he's 1090 00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:33,600 Speaker 1: not like, you know, one of the best players on 1091 00:58:33,600 --> 00:58:35,000 Speaker 1: one of the best No, he's like the best player 1092 00:58:35,040 --> 00:58:37,600 Speaker 1: on the team and arguably had thrown his hat in 1093 00:58:37,600 --> 00:58:39,959 Speaker 1: the ring. Is like hey, TJ. Watt, Miles, Garrett nick Bosa, 1094 00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:42,520 Speaker 1: like I'm one of you guys. And to have his 1095 00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:46,120 Speaker 1: leg wrapped around another guy's leg. Like they already had 1096 00:58:46,120 --> 00:58:49,520 Speaker 1: some defensive question marks, not necessarily against Dallas. Their offense 1097 00:58:49,640 --> 00:58:52,520 Speaker 1: is clearly was humming. But I mean, Dallas, me and 1098 00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:54,280 Speaker 1: you probably could have found a way if we were 1099 00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:57,280 Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator for whoever, to dial up fifteen points 1100 00:58:57,280 --> 00:59:00,840 Speaker 1: against that cowboy defense. I don't know. I get Minnesota's 1101 00:59:00,840 --> 00:59:03,040 Speaker 1: coming off a bye and they have an excellent coaching 1102 00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:08,160 Speaker 1: staff with Kevin O'Connell and Flores, but I kind of 1103 00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:10,680 Speaker 1: like the Lions getting points now. The one thing that 1104 00:59:10,680 --> 00:59:13,000 Speaker 1: gives me pause is like that emotional let down, like 1105 00:59:13,040 --> 00:59:16,200 Speaker 1: this has probably been a very emotional week for them, uh, 1106 00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:19,600 Speaker 1: with just you know, him in a hospital, right, I mean, 1107 00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:21,320 Speaker 1: I don't even know if he's out of the hospital 1108 00:59:21,320 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 1: bed yet he's gonna be probably in a wheelchair or 1109 00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:25,960 Speaker 1: a scooter or something like. It's it's not you just like, hey, 1110 00:59:25,960 --> 00:59:27,720 Speaker 1: he broke his arm. He's gonna be okay, Like this 1111 00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:31,560 Speaker 1: is a pretty traumatic injury. But I'm I'm still taking 1112 00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:36,040 Speaker 1: the Lions. But it's it's risky. Would what would this 1113 00:59:36,120 --> 00:59:39,600 Speaker 1: line be if Hutchinson's leg was fine he was playing this. 1114 00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:48,720 Speaker 3: Game, Ah, I would probably, I mean maybe one, like 1115 00:59:48,800 --> 00:59:53,680 Speaker 3: a half point or so, but it I think it's 1116 00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:56,880 Speaker 3: a big, a huge loss. I mean, their defense is 1117 00:59:56,960 --> 01:00:01,880 Speaker 3: essentially built around him getting pressure, and you know, it's 1118 01:00:01,880 --> 01:00:04,520 Speaker 3: a pass funnel defense. They're very good, good, very good 1119 01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:09,160 Speaker 3: against the run. They're vulnerable on the back end where 1120 01:00:09,160 --> 01:00:12,080 Speaker 3: they want to play more man coverage and you know 1121 01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:16,600 Speaker 3: they don't have the greatest secondary, but they're relying on 1122 01:00:16,680 --> 01:00:19,680 Speaker 3: him getting pressure and then your coverage on the back 1123 01:00:19,800 --> 01:00:23,320 Speaker 3: end doesn't have to hold up as long. On top 1124 01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:27,360 Speaker 3: of that, they don't have great depth at the position. 1125 01:00:27,520 --> 01:00:30,880 Speaker 3: They already lost Davenport, who they brought in to play 1126 01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:33,600 Speaker 3: on the other side, so now they're defensive and their 1127 01:00:33,720 --> 01:00:40,600 Speaker 3: edge rush situation is extremely underwhelming without Hutchinson. So yeah, 1128 01:00:40,680 --> 01:00:44,840 Speaker 3: it's this might end up being an injury that costs 1129 01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:46,480 Speaker 3: them a shot at winning the Super Bowl. 1130 01:00:46,680 --> 01:00:50,240 Speaker 1: Well, I think they got a big trade. You know, 1131 01:00:50,760 --> 01:00:54,320 Speaker 1: Crosby made comment today and Mark Davis can say all 1132 01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:57,040 Speaker 1: he wants, We're not trading him. Crosby basically like, I'm 1133 01:00:57,080 --> 01:00:59,360 Speaker 1: not rebuilding and the Raiders are about to nuke this 1134 01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:03,720 Speaker 1: bitch fucking started over. To me, their GM comes from 1135 01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:06,600 Speaker 1: the Rams. Would you offer two ones right now for 1136 01:01:06,680 --> 01:01:12,160 Speaker 1: Max Crosby if you were them, probably I would. And 1137 01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:14,080 Speaker 1: then and also a big picture, you just have them 1138 01:01:14,080 --> 01:01:16,520 Speaker 1: when Hutchinson, who just it's just a leg break will 1139 01:01:16,560 --> 01:01:18,520 Speaker 1: come back and then all of a sudden, I like 1140 01:01:18,560 --> 01:01:20,760 Speaker 1: the Lions even more next year if you're like, yeah, 1141 01:01:20,800 --> 01:01:22,280 Speaker 1: Crosby and Hudginson, Holy. 1142 01:01:22,240 --> 01:01:24,360 Speaker 3: And then all their young their young secondary piece that 1143 01:01:24,400 --> 01:01:28,280 Speaker 3: they drafted will get better exactly. Yeah. 1144 01:01:28,080 --> 01:01:30,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, and the offense is all under contract. 1145 01:01:31,120 --> 01:01:35,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is your window. You you going, because I 1146 01:01:35,840 --> 01:01:37,760 Speaker 3: don't think this year that their defense would hold up 1147 01:01:37,760 --> 01:01:40,280 Speaker 3: in the playoffs if they don't make a move. It 1148 01:01:40,480 --> 01:01:43,680 Speaker 3: just it just wouldn't For this week. I mean, I 1149 01:01:43,720 --> 01:01:45,240 Speaker 3: don't really have a few out three. I would like 1150 01:01:45,560 --> 01:01:50,120 Speaker 3: I would play Detroit, but there are the offense. 1151 01:01:50,640 --> 01:01:52,720 Speaker 1: Minnesota is just gonna be six and oh and then 1152 01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:54,280 Speaker 1: all of a sudden are gonna look out, They're gonna 1153 01:01:54,280 --> 01:01:54,880 Speaker 1: be like ten and one. 1154 01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:58,400 Speaker 3: I don't know the Vikings have the I have this 1155 01:01:58,480 --> 01:02:00,120 Speaker 3: weird vibe with the Bikers that they're gonna be like 1156 01:02:00,120 --> 01:02:02,600 Speaker 3: a team that goes ten and oh and then loses 1157 01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:04,760 Speaker 3: in the first round of the playoffs. If the Vikings 1158 01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:08,640 Speaker 3: win this game, they here, here are the rest of 1159 01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:17,360 Speaker 3: their games. Tell me when you're confident they'll lose, Rams, Colts, Jags, Titans. 1160 01:02:17,880 --> 01:02:21,160 Speaker 1: Bears, They're gonna they're gonna have a good record. 1161 01:02:20,960 --> 01:02:27,800 Speaker 3: Clearly, Falcons, Bears. I mean, yeah, they they could be 1162 01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:29,880 Speaker 3: a team that's like there was the number that Steelers 1163 01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:31,440 Speaker 3: in like the Kobe they were like ten and oh 1164 01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:34,400 Speaker 3: and then they lost like five straight and then got 1165 01:02:34,920 --> 01:02:41,120 Speaker 3: their teams. Yeah, the Vikings give me vibes to that. 1166 01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:42,680 Speaker 3: But this should be a really good game. 1167 01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:46,000 Speaker 1: Well because Minnesota's already won, They've already beat the Texans, 1168 01:02:46,040 --> 01:02:48,280 Speaker 1: they've already beat the Niners, and they already won at Lambeau. 1169 01:02:48,640 --> 01:02:50,640 Speaker 1: So it's like I would imagine those are the three 1170 01:02:50,680 --> 01:02:53,000 Speaker 1: hardest games of the season beside going to Detroit. 1171 01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:58,560 Speaker 3: Yeah. So yeah, the Lions offense, it was humming last week. 1172 01:02:58,560 --> 01:03:00,560 Speaker 3: Ben Johnson's in his bag. You could tell that they 1173 01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:03,720 Speaker 3: after the buye they wanted to get an offensive lineman 1174 01:03:03,760 --> 01:03:06,520 Speaker 3: a touchdown so bad in that game they ended up 1175 01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:09,160 Speaker 3: giving up points trying to do it. They had offensive 1176 01:03:09,160 --> 01:03:12,400 Speaker 3: linemens split out. They were it was they were doing 1177 01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:15,320 Speaker 3: their you know, the eligible receiver trying to throw to them. 1178 01:03:15,680 --> 01:03:17,960 Speaker 3: They were, they were. He was just in his bag. 1179 01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:20,960 Speaker 3: But you got to remember that the Dallas defense was 1180 01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:25,000 Speaker 3: completely decimated by injury. The week before, the Seattle defense 1181 01:03:25,080 --> 01:03:28,480 Speaker 3: was completely decimated by injury. And before that the offense 1182 01:03:28,640 --> 01:03:33,000 Speaker 3: was struggling a bit. So where is was it just 1183 01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:36,120 Speaker 3: a fact of Was it just that the offense was 1184 01:03:36,240 --> 01:03:39,040 Speaker 3: off slow start? Now they're they're kind of humming? Or 1185 01:03:39,120 --> 01:03:42,400 Speaker 3: is do we see golf kind of? You know, sometimes 1186 01:03:42,400 --> 01:03:45,040 Speaker 3: he shows that he's he's still a pumpkin deep under 1187 01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:49,600 Speaker 3: underneath all all of the outer layers. Can Flores turned 1188 01:03:49,640 --> 01:03:51,439 Speaker 3: him back into a pumpkin with a couple of weeks 1189 01:03:51,480 --> 01:03:53,600 Speaker 3: to a pair. He's going to bring pressure. Now, Detroit 1190 01:03:53,640 --> 01:03:56,040 Speaker 3: does have a really good offensive line. They have a 1191 01:03:56,040 --> 01:04:00,560 Speaker 3: good run game, But I would worry about the defense 1192 01:04:00,600 --> 01:04:04,680 Speaker 3: for Detroit here because Minnesota great offensive line, no Hutchinson, 1193 01:04:05,600 --> 01:04:07,400 Speaker 3: and I don't think that they could cover them the 1194 01:04:07,440 --> 01:04:10,720 Speaker 3: back end, great home field here. So yeah, I think 1195 01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:13,760 Speaker 3: that Minnesota is a small favorite. It is probably about right, 1196 01:04:14,400 --> 01:04:16,560 Speaker 3: but I wouldn't fault you for taking Detroit. 1197 01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:28,080 Speaker 1: You know, it's funny when one game jumped out to 1198 01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:29,480 Speaker 1: me a couple of days ago, when I was looking 1199 01:04:29,520 --> 01:04:31,880 Speaker 1: at the slate on like Tuesday morning, and you had 1200 01:04:31,920 --> 01:04:37,360 Speaker 1: mentioned it before we press record is Seattle against the Falcons, 1201 01:04:37,560 --> 01:04:41,040 Speaker 1: and Falcons Panther game was one of those classic like 1202 01:04:41,120 --> 01:04:44,960 Speaker 1: afternoon Sunday last week and just an awful day of 1203 01:04:45,200 --> 01:04:49,200 Speaker 1: NFL games that was like this thing, I just how 1204 01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:52,600 Speaker 1: irrelevant is this matchup once you know Atlanta's gonna win. 1205 01:04:53,360 --> 01:04:56,520 Speaker 1: But I just think you get the extra by one thing. 1206 01:04:56,640 --> 01:05:01,040 Speaker 1: I was really really Ryan Grubb. Anytime a coach who 1207 01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:03,800 Speaker 1: has coached his entire career, even if he's become elite 1208 01:05:03,880 --> 01:05:06,680 Speaker 1: in college, but he's never worked in the NFL, I 1209 01:05:06,720 --> 01:05:10,000 Speaker 1: always just am unsure when he makes the jump. Not 1210 01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:12,160 Speaker 1: because I don't think he knows x's nose, but it's 1211 01:05:12,200 --> 01:05:15,160 Speaker 1: a big difference dealing with pros. Even though you have 1212 01:05:15,280 --> 01:05:18,520 Speaker 1: nil guys, now, you know, dealing with DK Metcalf, dealing 1213 01:05:18,520 --> 01:05:22,880 Speaker 1: with whoever and coaching them hard, implementing what you need 1214 01:05:22,920 --> 01:05:26,919 Speaker 1: to do, and the understanding you have of like how 1215 01:05:27,080 --> 01:05:29,360 Speaker 1: so and so runs a defense, how this guy runs it? 1216 01:05:29,400 --> 01:05:32,360 Speaker 1: You just have never played against them. He's pretty good. 1217 01:05:33,800 --> 01:05:37,040 Speaker 1: I think Ryan Grubb is pretty awesome. And in that 1218 01:05:37,080 --> 01:05:39,400 Speaker 1: game there were a couple of red zone trips where 1219 01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:40,720 Speaker 1: even when they didn't score, I was like, God, this 1220 01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:44,080 Speaker 1: fucking guy. It looks like Washington if you gave him, 1221 01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:47,200 Speaker 1: you know, the Niners offensive weapons with a good quarterback. 1222 01:05:47,400 --> 01:05:49,200 Speaker 1: You know, he's got Geno Smith who just can be 1223 01:05:49,320 --> 01:05:51,840 Speaker 1: very very hit or miss. But I know, you know, 1224 01:05:52,240 --> 01:05:55,080 Speaker 1: Mike McDonald's just a stud. They've just had a million 1225 01:05:55,120 --> 01:05:58,400 Speaker 1: injuries on defense. I think their coaching staff's really really good. 1226 01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:01,960 Speaker 1: And I just you give me plus three against the Falcons, 1227 01:06:01,960 --> 01:06:05,160 Speaker 1: who clearly are going to be solid when the dust sedtles. 1228 01:06:05,160 --> 01:06:06,640 Speaker 1: They're going to be a playoff team. Are they going 1229 01:06:06,680 --> 01:06:08,360 Speaker 1: to win the division? My Saints are and shambles. 1230 01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:09,000 Speaker 3: That thing's over. 1231 01:06:09,040 --> 01:06:12,840 Speaker 1: But Tampa, they got a big game, gets you guys 1232 01:06:12,880 --> 01:06:17,160 Speaker 1: on Monday night. But I don't know that Seattle number 1233 01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:19,240 Speaker 1: jumped out to me, I think there's some value there 1234 01:06:19,280 --> 01:06:19,720 Speaker 1: for sure. 1235 01:06:20,800 --> 01:06:23,600 Speaker 3: I agree. Yeah, I bet Seattle here plus three. I 1236 01:06:23,600 --> 01:06:27,920 Speaker 3: think these teams are about equal, and just from a 1237 01:06:27,960 --> 01:06:31,920 Speaker 3: powerty's perspective, Yeah, Atlanta home field is not much well. 1238 01:06:31,920 --> 01:06:34,240 Speaker 1: Seattle is fully healthy. I mean i'd like them to 1239 01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:35,080 Speaker 1: win the game outright. 1240 01:06:35,440 --> 01:06:37,040 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I think they still are. I mean I 1241 01:06:37,040 --> 01:06:38,880 Speaker 3: would love to. We'll see if frequel And can give 1242 01:06:38,880 --> 01:06:40,320 Speaker 3: it a go. He's playing at an all pro level 1243 01:06:40,360 --> 01:06:43,000 Speaker 3: their corner, but they should be healthier up front. I mean, 1244 01:06:43,040 --> 01:06:44,680 Speaker 3: if you look at what Seattle has done this year, 1245 01:06:44,720 --> 01:06:47,800 Speaker 3: they started off three and oho, but you knew that 1246 01:06:48,360 --> 01:06:50,960 Speaker 3: it wasn't going to be that because they beat Bnicks, 1247 01:06:51,280 --> 01:06:54,840 Speaker 3: Jacoby Brissette and then whoever the Dolphins were throwing out there, 1248 01:06:54,840 --> 01:07:00,880 Speaker 3: and Skyler Thompson and Tim Boyle. Competition, you know, increased competition, 1249 01:07:01,600 --> 01:07:03,800 Speaker 3: and they lost three straight. But it was one of 1250 01:07:03,800 --> 01:07:08,320 Speaker 3: the hardest stretches that any team will have to face 1251 01:07:08,360 --> 01:07:11,040 Speaker 3: this season. They played, they went to Detroit and then 1252 01:07:11,120 --> 01:07:12,640 Speaker 3: you know, came home in a short week to play 1253 01:07:12,640 --> 01:07:14,360 Speaker 3: the Giants, then played to forty nine ers on a 1254 01:07:14,360 --> 01:07:17,640 Speaker 3: short week, three games in eleven days. Ravished by injuries, 1255 01:07:18,240 --> 01:07:18,920 Speaker 3: that's brutal. 1256 01:07:19,520 --> 01:07:22,439 Speaker 1: So two teams that were in the NFC Championship last year. 1257 01:07:22,640 --> 01:07:24,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, the two of the best offenses the NFL. When 1258 01:07:24,920 --> 01:07:28,040 Speaker 3: your defense is just completely deactmint of injuries, so they 1259 01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:30,360 Speaker 3: needed the rest you had. You know, you had a 1260 01:07:30,520 --> 01:07:33,920 Speaker 3: trip out to New England too, and so they needed 1261 01:07:33,920 --> 01:07:36,720 Speaker 3: the rest. I like the staff, So the extra time 1262 01:07:36,720 --> 01:07:40,920 Speaker 3: to repair should be favorable for both Grubb and McDonald, 1263 01:07:40,920 --> 01:07:44,520 Speaker 3: and they should be healthier on defense up front. If 1264 01:07:44,560 --> 01:07:47,240 Speaker 3: woman can't go and they're still banged up in the secondary. 1265 01:07:47,600 --> 01:07:50,680 Speaker 3: I still think they can keep up with Atlanta because 1266 01:07:50,960 --> 01:07:54,040 Speaker 3: this Seattle offense is really good as long as they 1267 01:07:54,040 --> 01:07:57,520 Speaker 3: can get pass protection. A couple injuries on the right 1268 01:07:57,560 --> 01:07:59,439 Speaker 3: side of the offensive line, they're dealing it, but doesn't 1269 01:07:59,480 --> 01:08:04,680 Speaker 3: matter against Atlanta. Atlanta cannot generate pressure. They're incapable of doing. 1270 01:08:04,680 --> 01:08:08,640 Speaker 3: It looked last week against Carolina, Carolina missing a couple 1271 01:08:08,680 --> 01:08:13,800 Speaker 3: offensive linemen didn't matter. Andy Dalton had all day to throw. 1272 01:08:14,280 --> 01:08:17,040 Speaker 3: They are the only team that gets less pressure than 1273 01:08:17,640 --> 01:08:21,200 Speaker 3: Atlanta's Carolina, who has nobody left on their defense due 1274 01:08:21,200 --> 01:08:24,840 Speaker 3: to injuries. So Gino should have all day here with 1275 01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:28,960 Speaker 3: his bevy of weapons to cook and I think they 1276 01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:31,320 Speaker 3: can keep up with Atlanta. And if you get a 1277 01:08:31,360 --> 01:08:34,000 Speaker 3: couple guys in the secondary back, I liked it even more. 1278 01:08:34,680 --> 01:08:36,720 Speaker 3: And if you look at Atlanta, all this Atlanta team 1279 01:08:36,760 --> 01:08:39,320 Speaker 3: does is play close games. Even that Carolina team who 1280 01:08:39,320 --> 01:08:42,800 Speaker 3: had no I mean everyone was out for them. They 1281 01:08:42,840 --> 01:08:48,120 Speaker 3: had the ball down eight driving in the fourth quarter 1282 01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:51,080 Speaker 3: in the red zone and threw a pick and then 1283 01:08:51,200 --> 01:08:53,280 Speaker 3: it got out of hand from there. The rest of 1284 01:08:53,320 --> 01:08:56,360 Speaker 3: their games. Look, if Sirianni runs the ball, they lose 1285 01:08:56,400 --> 01:09:01,440 Speaker 3: that game. If they get if Fuo doesn't hit a 1286 01:09:01,479 --> 01:09:04,400 Speaker 3: sixty yard field goal in the game they had two 1287 01:09:04,560 --> 01:09:08,479 Speaker 3: non offensive touchdowns against the Saints, they lose that game. 1288 01:09:08,760 --> 01:09:10,880 Speaker 1: And they don't they hit the PI got him like 1289 01:09:10,920 --> 01:09:13,200 Speaker 1: thirty five yards to get him in field goal range. 1290 01:09:13,479 --> 01:09:17,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, and if they don't get the spike down with 1291 01:09:17,400 --> 01:09:19,839 Speaker 3: one second to go, and then when a coin toss, 1292 01:09:20,200 --> 01:09:22,640 Speaker 3: they lose to the Bucks. The game they won an overtime, 1293 01:09:23,320 --> 01:09:26,120 Speaker 3: so you know, arguably should have beat the Chiefs, but 1294 01:09:26,160 --> 01:09:30,479 Speaker 3: they arguably should have three more losses on and then 1295 01:09:30,479 --> 01:09:32,080 Speaker 3: all they do is play close Kings. I expect this 1296 01:09:32,120 --> 01:09:35,760 Speaker 3: to be another close game, and I like the Seahawks catches. 1297 01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:38,040 Speaker 3: There's a lot of trends here, and yeah, has been 1298 01:09:38,040 --> 01:09:40,160 Speaker 3: pretty unlucky when it comes to turnovers. So you go 1299 01:09:40,280 --> 01:09:42,639 Speaker 3: back to that Detroit game that DK fumble hit another 1300 01:09:42,640 --> 01:09:44,679 Speaker 3: big fumble in another game this year. 1301 01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:46,880 Speaker 1: He turns the ball over a lot though he. 1302 01:09:46,880 --> 01:09:49,840 Speaker 3: Does, but just in general, like their defense, if you 1303 01:09:49,920 --> 01:09:53,080 Speaker 3: look under the hood, should have more turnovers. And their 1304 01:09:53,120 --> 01:09:55,800 Speaker 3: offense has lost a ton of EPA for turnovers, so 1305 01:09:55,840 --> 01:09:59,200 Speaker 3: they've been running a bit bad, so they could have 1306 01:09:59,200 --> 01:10:01,840 Speaker 3: some regression. I mean a lot of trends. Back up 1307 01:10:02,160 --> 01:10:05,680 Speaker 3: the Seahawks here, three straight losses, road underdog, road underdogs 1308 01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:09,280 Speaker 3: with extra rest, three or more. A lot of these 1309 01:10:09,320 --> 01:10:12,040 Speaker 3: trends are right right around sixty percent against the spread historically, 1310 01:10:12,120 --> 01:10:13,360 Speaker 3: So I agree with you. I like Seattle. 1311 01:10:13,840 --> 01:10:18,240 Speaker 1: We don't usually mention Monday night games. But Tampa, you know, 1312 01:10:18,280 --> 01:10:21,000 Speaker 1: Baker leaves the league and touchdown passes, they've looked really 1313 01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:25,000 Speaker 1: explosive passing the game. The Ravens who Derreck Henry is 1314 01:10:25,040 --> 01:10:28,000 Speaker 1: on pace for like two g's and twenty five touchdowns. 1315 01:10:28,600 --> 01:10:31,799 Speaker 1: The run defense is awesome, but the pass defense is 1316 01:10:31,840 --> 01:10:35,120 Speaker 1: more than questionable. Like when you look at that game, 1317 01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:38,080 Speaker 1: do you get a little nervous if you're Ravens like 1318 01:10:38,120 --> 01:10:40,840 Speaker 1: stopping this passing offense which is really humming right now, 1319 01:10:40,960 --> 01:10:43,360 Speaker 1: or just you just run down their throat and Tampa's 1320 01:10:43,400 --> 01:10:45,400 Speaker 1: defense isn't quite as good as it's been in a 1321 01:10:45,439 --> 01:10:45,960 Speaker 1: year's past. 1322 01:10:46,880 --> 01:10:51,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I'm a little bit nervous, but I 1323 01:10:51,680 --> 01:10:54,719 Speaker 3: think that the key is, you've seen this Tampa offense 1324 01:10:54,760 --> 01:10:57,040 Speaker 3: operate at its best this year when it's run game 1325 01:10:57,120 --> 01:11:00,240 Speaker 3: gets going, like they were running all over New Orleans 1326 01:11:00,439 --> 01:11:06,320 Speaker 3: last week and yeah, Bucky Sean Tucker flash last week. 1327 01:11:06,640 --> 01:11:08,840 Speaker 3: So last year they couldn't run it at all and 1328 01:11:08,880 --> 01:11:12,640 Speaker 3: Baker was kind of bailing them out at an unsustainable rate. So, 1329 01:11:12,800 --> 01:11:14,679 Speaker 3: but they're not going to run on Baltimore. We saw 1330 01:11:14,680 --> 01:11:18,320 Speaker 3: that last week. Tampa does have the receivers. You need 1331 01:11:18,360 --> 01:11:22,200 Speaker 3: really good receivers to beat this Ravens team. But do 1332 01:11:22,280 --> 01:11:26,040 Speaker 3: I trust Baker to be consistent enough without a complimentary 1333 01:11:26,120 --> 01:11:31,519 Speaker 3: run game? No? Not really. This this total starting to 1334 01:11:31,520 --> 01:11:33,439 Speaker 3: get up there. I can see both offensive scoring, but 1335 01:11:33,880 --> 01:11:37,000 Speaker 3: Ravens is gonna run a lot. Tampa plays slow. I 1336 01:11:37,040 --> 01:11:39,800 Speaker 3: don't know. I might be a contrarian under I think 1337 01:11:39,800 --> 01:11:41,360 Speaker 3: the line is I think it's the three. I would 1338 01:11:41,360 --> 01:11:47,040 Speaker 3: play the Ravens. But yeah, certainly. Ravens have had like 1339 01:11:47,160 --> 01:11:51,200 Speaker 3: a number of weeks where they've gotten up for opponents 1340 01:11:51,640 --> 01:11:54,559 Speaker 3: like the Bills game in brime time, huge game, needed it, 1341 01:11:55,120 --> 01:11:58,719 Speaker 3: go to Sincy in overtime, need it, huge for the division, 1342 01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:01,840 Speaker 3: get it. And then you get Jane Daniels. The Battle 1343 01:12:01,840 --> 01:12:05,920 Speaker 3: of Belt weigh like there's a rivalry there between Washington 1344 01:12:06,120 --> 01:12:09,840 Speaker 3: and Baltimore, even if they don't play frequently. Just between 1345 01:12:09,880 --> 01:12:12,920 Speaker 3: the players, there's a lot of familiarity. You have all 1346 01:12:12,920 --> 01:12:14,800 Speaker 3: the Daniels type, you get up for that, you win 1347 01:12:14,840 --> 01:12:16,040 Speaker 3: the game. Now you're sitting at four and two in 1348 01:12:16,080 --> 01:12:19,840 Speaker 3: good position. So now you're going down to Tampa. It's 1349 01:12:19,880 --> 01:12:25,920 Speaker 3: a non conference game. So like there's just from like 1350 01:12:25,960 --> 01:12:29,840 Speaker 3: a letdown perspective how the schedule breaks, it's not a 1351 01:12:29,880 --> 01:12:34,599 Speaker 3: great spot for Baltimore. That would concern me a bit, 1352 01:12:35,240 --> 01:12:38,520 Speaker 3: But it's hard to see Tampa getting many stops. 1353 01:12:38,880 --> 01:12:42,679 Speaker 1: What do you think about my college football underdog Parlay 1354 01:12:42,920 --> 01:12:47,400 Speaker 1: Tennessee at home plus three, Nebraska going to IU plus 1355 01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:50,720 Speaker 1: six and a half, Illinois against the team that you 1356 01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:53,759 Speaker 1: said sucked and you were dead right, Michigan at home 1357 01:12:54,160 --> 01:12:56,000 Speaker 1: plus three and a half. That seems crazy to me, 1358 01:12:56,760 --> 01:12:59,320 Speaker 1: And you know, I was at that Oklahoma game, which 1359 01:12:59,560 --> 01:13:02,800 Speaker 1: was seven to three with only a couple of minutes 1360 01:13:02,880 --> 01:13:04,320 Speaker 1: left to go in the first half, and I get 1361 01:13:04,360 --> 01:13:06,360 Speaker 1: he hadn't he'd missed a couple of games. But quinn 1362 01:13:06,400 --> 01:13:09,760 Speaker 1: Ewers doesn't exactly look like Andrew Luck out there. I mean, 1363 01:13:09,760 --> 01:13:11,680 Speaker 1: they ran the ball really well, they throw a lot 1364 01:13:11,680 --> 01:13:13,559 Speaker 1: of quick screens, and they got some dudes, and obviously 1365 01:13:13,560 --> 01:13:16,000 Speaker 1: their defense is really good. It's not like I'm a 1366 01:13:16,080 --> 01:13:19,439 Speaker 1: huge believer in Georgia, but eventually this team is gonna 1367 01:13:19,439 --> 01:13:21,479 Speaker 1: play a close game. You would think that Georgia would 1368 01:13:21,479 --> 01:13:23,720 Speaker 1: get really up for it. Plus four and a half, 1369 01:13:23,800 --> 01:13:26,200 Speaker 1: So I go Tennessee, Nebraska, Illinois, Georgia. 1370 01:13:27,760 --> 01:13:30,960 Speaker 3: I don't hate it. I was the games I played 1371 01:13:30,960 --> 01:13:35,000 Speaker 3: Georgia as well. There's a little bit. What we're seeing 1372 01:13:35,040 --> 01:13:36,760 Speaker 3: this year is that did we talk about this every week? 1373 01:13:36,760 --> 01:13:40,599 Speaker 3: The elite teams are not as elite because they've been 1374 01:13:40,640 --> 01:13:44,760 Speaker 3: in years past. The talent has kind of dispersed due 1375 01:13:44,800 --> 01:13:47,400 Speaker 3: to the new college football dancy of the transfer portal. 1376 01:13:47,479 --> 01:13:51,960 Speaker 3: Nil Texas has looked the part, and if you look 1377 01:13:51,960 --> 01:13:53,600 Speaker 3: at their metrics, they look like the best team in 1378 01:13:53,600 --> 01:13:58,800 Speaker 3: the country. But there's we've seen this this year these 1379 01:13:58,840 --> 01:14:00,920 Speaker 3: teams that they haven't really played anybody. You can say 1380 01:14:00,960 --> 01:14:02,800 Speaker 3: how they played Michigan Michigan sticks. I mean, like the 1381 01:14:02,800 --> 01:14:07,040 Speaker 3: Michigan Cup dominated by Washington. Uh is the team that 1382 01:14:07,439 --> 01:14:07,680 Speaker 3: is not? 1383 01:14:07,720 --> 01:14:10,000 Speaker 1: How is Mischi? How is Michigan favored in that game? 1384 01:14:11,160 --> 01:14:16,240 Speaker 3: Yeah? Uh? Insane? I mean they're going to there, they're 1385 01:14:16,280 --> 01:14:18,280 Speaker 3: off of a bye, They're going to Jack Tuttle, but 1386 01:14:18,280 --> 01:14:21,479 Speaker 3: they still don't have receivers. But you know, Texas played 1387 01:14:21,600 --> 01:14:23,720 Speaker 3: Michigan when they were I mean it was just a 1388 01:14:23,840 --> 01:14:26,720 Speaker 3: joke what they were, what they had at quarterback. Texas 1389 01:14:26,760 --> 01:14:30,160 Speaker 3: beats Oklahoma, Oklahoma's you know, playing a backup quarterback and 1390 01:14:30,200 --> 01:14:33,640 Speaker 3: had no receivers at all, with offensive line injuries. 1391 01:14:33,600 --> 01:14:35,640 Speaker 1: And their defense was given it to their defense was 1392 01:14:35,640 --> 01:14:37,439 Speaker 1: given it to them for a half up until the 1393 01:14:37,439 --> 01:14:39,400 Speaker 1: two minutes to go and they started fumbling and they 1394 01:14:39,439 --> 01:14:41,040 Speaker 1: just gave him a couple easy touchdowns. 1395 01:14:41,640 --> 01:14:43,839 Speaker 3: Yeah. And if you look at the other Texas games, 1396 01:14:44,600 --> 01:14:48,200 Speaker 3: I mean, so that's those are you know, Oklahoma's original 1397 01:14:48,240 --> 01:14:53,479 Speaker 3: backup Michigan, who's their quarterbacks now a third string? You 1398 01:14:53,520 --> 01:14:58,240 Speaker 3: know they played utsas since bench their quarterback Uel Monroe. 1399 01:14:58,240 --> 01:15:00,360 Speaker 3: I mean, these aren't good teams as their bet since 1400 01:15:00,400 --> 01:15:04,080 Speaker 3: bench their quarterback, Mississippi State's backup quarterback, they haven't played 1401 01:15:04,080 --> 01:15:06,479 Speaker 3: anybody yet. We've seen this a number of times this year. 1402 01:15:07,520 --> 01:15:12,240 Speaker 3: Oh Miss destroying everybody, right, looks so good, step up 1403 01:15:12,240 --> 01:15:15,400 Speaker 3: in class and you know they lose to Kentucky, They 1404 01:15:15,400 --> 01:15:21,320 Speaker 3: lose to LSU, Tennessee, all the talk about Tennessee. They 1405 01:15:22,360 --> 01:15:25,559 Speaker 3: lose to Arkansas and arguably should have lost to Florida 1406 01:15:25,960 --> 01:15:30,200 Speaker 3: once they stepped up in class. Alabama destroying all these 1407 01:15:30,240 --> 01:15:33,280 Speaker 3: teams out of conference. They lose to Vanderbilt, probably should 1408 01:15:33,280 --> 01:15:36,040 Speaker 3: have lost to South Carolina too, So we I mean, 1409 01:15:36,080 --> 01:15:39,639 Speaker 3: there's countless examples of this once. I mean, Ohio State 1410 01:15:39,800 --> 01:15:43,800 Speaker 3: look dominant, favored at Oregon lose outright, So do we 1411 01:15:43,960 --> 01:15:46,760 Speaker 3: really know how good? We know that they're they're super talented, 1412 01:15:47,280 --> 01:15:49,880 Speaker 3: but do we really know how good? And George is 1413 01:15:49,920 --> 01:15:52,280 Speaker 3: gonna be the more desperate team here, You're gonna there's 1414 01:15:52,280 --> 01:15:55,160 Speaker 3: been more upsets in college football this year because I 1415 01:15:55,200 --> 01:15:59,160 Speaker 3: think there's not as that the sense of urgency isn't 1416 01:15:59,200 --> 01:16:00,760 Speaker 3: as great with the twelve off team PLAYFF like you 1417 01:16:00,760 --> 01:16:03,800 Speaker 3: can afford a couple losses. Georgia's schedules brutal, like they 1418 01:16:03,800 --> 01:16:07,160 Speaker 3: still go to Ole Miss. They still play Tennessee. You 1419 01:16:07,200 --> 01:16:11,400 Speaker 3: know they they already lost a game this season. I 1420 01:16:11,439 --> 01:16:14,559 Speaker 3: think they'll come out focused here after how they came 1421 01:16:14,600 --> 01:16:18,000 Speaker 3: out against Alabama, and they're they're the much more battle 1422 01:16:18,040 --> 01:16:21,400 Speaker 3: tested team. There's definitely some issues. The wide receiver room 1423 01:16:21,520 --> 01:16:24,040 Speaker 3: is not as talented as it's been. The defense doesn't 1424 01:16:24,040 --> 01:16:26,640 Speaker 3: have as much depth due to the transfer portal. The 1425 01:16:26,720 --> 01:16:29,559 Speaker 3: secondary is that issue, specifically against play action where viewers 1426 01:16:29,640 --> 01:16:33,200 Speaker 3: usually thrives. But I agree, I had to take the 1427 01:16:33,240 --> 01:16:35,600 Speaker 3: points here the one game there, I don't I just 1428 01:16:35,640 --> 01:16:39,479 Speaker 3: don't know, so I can't even give you a strong 1429 01:16:39,479 --> 01:16:43,280 Speaker 3: opinion as Alabama Tennessee. I have no idea what's going 1430 01:16:43,360 --> 01:16:47,160 Speaker 3: to happen in that game. Alabama has issues on the 1431 01:16:47,479 --> 01:16:50,360 Speaker 3: especially you know, their offensive line has issues. They can't 1432 01:16:50,439 --> 01:16:54,400 Speaker 3: protect Noural, which is a problem against the Texas defensive line. 1433 01:16:54,400 --> 01:16:57,840 Speaker 3: But tech, excuse me, it's a Tennessee defensive line. But 1434 01:16:57,920 --> 01:17:01,920 Speaker 3: Tennessee's down there. You know, they're quarterback of their defense 1435 01:17:01,960 --> 01:17:04,920 Speaker 3: and Peely their their star linebacker. It's a huge loss. 1436 01:17:05,920 --> 01:17:10,240 Speaker 3: So you know Ken Milroll get enough time to take 1437 01:17:10,280 --> 01:17:15,880 Speaker 3: advantage of the vulnerable Tennessee secondary. We'll see on the 1438 01:17:15,920 --> 01:17:17,719 Speaker 3: other end, the Alabama secondary. 1439 01:17:17,720 --> 01:17:19,439 Speaker 1: What's up with What's up with Nico right now? 1440 01:17:19,520 --> 01:17:24,400 Speaker 3: How he looks horrendous. So the Alabama secondary has major issues. 1441 01:17:25,000 --> 01:17:30,679 Speaker 3: They're very young. They can be exploited. The Tennessee offensive line, 1442 01:17:30,800 --> 01:17:33,920 Speaker 3: the tackle position has been very murky. And Nico can't 1443 01:17:33,960 --> 01:17:35,439 Speaker 3: hit a throw. I mean he can't hit a throw 1444 01:17:35,479 --> 01:17:38,280 Speaker 3: down field. He's been inaccurate. He looks like he's just 1445 01:17:38,720 --> 01:17:42,679 Speaker 3: he's lost his confidence for now. His footwork has been off. 1446 01:17:43,000 --> 01:17:46,040 Speaker 3: So can he take advantage of the Alabama secondary? I 1447 01:17:46,040 --> 01:17:50,719 Speaker 3: don't know. So there's there's so many variables here. Look 1448 01:17:50,720 --> 01:17:54,800 Speaker 3: how similar these teams were right we they both look 1449 01:17:54,880 --> 01:17:58,200 Speaker 3: dominant out of conference, and we say these teams are 1450 01:17:58,240 --> 01:18:02,080 Speaker 3: definitely going to the playoff them in Tennessee prior to 1451 01:18:02,120 --> 01:18:06,840 Speaker 3: the last couple of weeks. Then Tennessee loses as a 1452 01:18:06,880 --> 01:18:11,720 Speaker 3: big favorite to Arkansas and Alabama loses is a big 1453 01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:13,320 Speaker 3: favorite to Vanderbilt. 1454 01:18:13,520 --> 01:18:17,479 Speaker 1: I'd even rewind before those games. They you know, Tennessee 1455 01:18:17,520 --> 01:18:21,679 Speaker 1: goes to Oklahoma, they host Georgia. They both dominate those games. Really, 1456 01:18:21,800 --> 01:18:24,200 Speaker 1: I know the Bama Georgia game. So you feel even 1457 01:18:24,280 --> 01:18:26,920 Speaker 1: better about both. You start going could Tennessee win the 1458 01:18:27,000 --> 01:18:30,920 Speaker 1: national championship. Holy shit, look at the Bourne Milroe and 1459 01:18:30,960 --> 01:18:32,760 Speaker 1: then it immediately flips. 1460 01:18:33,120 --> 01:18:36,559 Speaker 3: And then on top of that, you say, okay, there 1461 01:18:37,720 --> 01:18:43,640 Speaker 3: they lost the game. Next week, big favorites, big, big favorites. 1462 01:18:44,280 --> 01:18:48,800 Speaker 3: You expect them to bounce back at home and Alabama 1463 01:18:48,920 --> 01:18:51,320 Speaker 3: at home against South Carolina. South Carolina, show have won 1464 01:18:51,360 --> 01:18:53,479 Speaker 3: that game. They don't turn it over a million times, 1465 01:18:53,680 --> 01:18:58,240 Speaker 3: miss a field goal, and you come out with that 1466 01:18:58,320 --> 01:19:01,680 Speaker 3: performance Tennessee at home in prime time against a bad 1467 01:19:01,720 --> 01:19:04,639 Speaker 3: Florida team. If Graham Hearts doesn't get hurt, they lose 1468 01:19:04,680 --> 01:19:08,360 Speaker 3: that game. Game that still went to overtime, a game 1469 01:19:08,360 --> 01:19:11,040 Speaker 3: where Florida is and I couldn't score first of goal 1470 01:19:11,040 --> 01:19:13,280 Speaker 3: with the one fumbled. It had a number of mistakes 1471 01:19:13,320 --> 01:19:15,360 Speaker 3: the end of the half, they couldn't get a day, 1472 01:19:15,360 --> 01:19:17,160 Speaker 3: had a field goal taken off the board because of it. 1473 01:19:18,920 --> 01:19:20,960 Speaker 3: I think twelve men on the field or delay game penalty. 1474 01:19:21,600 --> 01:19:24,080 Speaker 3: Florida should have won that game. So both these teams, 1475 01:19:24,080 --> 01:19:26,920 Speaker 3: it's like that was the performance after you got upset 1476 01:19:27,560 --> 01:19:29,760 Speaker 3: and now this is a big game. So I don't know, 1477 01:19:29,880 --> 01:19:33,160 Speaker 3: I have no idea. There's so many questions on both teams. 1478 01:19:33,960 --> 01:19:35,559 Speaker 3: So yeah, I mean taking the points. 1479 01:19:35,760 --> 01:19:37,840 Speaker 1: I might take them off the ticket and just go 1480 01:19:37,880 --> 01:19:40,680 Speaker 1: with Nebraska, Illinois, Georgia because you're right that think's a 1481 01:19:40,720 --> 01:19:43,479 Speaker 1: total wild card. 1482 01:19:43,240 --> 01:19:44,960 Speaker 3: I did play Nebraska as well. 1483 01:19:45,160 --> 01:19:48,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's obviously Indiana has been a great story, 1484 01:19:48,200 --> 01:19:50,479 Speaker 1: but that seems like a lot of points. Honestly, that 1485 01:19:50,520 --> 01:19:54,040 Speaker 1: feels like upset potential just to win the game outright, No, 1486 01:19:54,120 --> 01:19:54,559 Speaker 1: I agree, I. 1487 01:19:54,560 --> 01:19:56,920 Speaker 3: Agree, Yeah, No, I mean Indiana has been great, that 1488 01:19:56,960 --> 01:19:58,720 Speaker 3: they haven't really played anybody. This will be the I mean, 1489 01:19:58,720 --> 01:20:01,360 Speaker 3: they haven't played a top fifty team in my Poweriting's 1490 01:20:01,439 --> 01:20:05,800 Speaker 3: Nebraska arguably top twenty five team, big step up in class, 1491 01:20:05,880 --> 01:20:07,599 Speaker 3: and I don't I think this line hasn't played because 1492 01:20:07,640 --> 01:20:10,479 Speaker 3: Indiana has been covering every week and they have been great. 1493 01:20:11,600 --> 01:20:15,160 Speaker 3: But I will say if Nebraska illin Nebraska lost to Illinois, 1494 01:20:15,200 --> 01:20:19,080 Speaker 3: Illinois had a ridiculous pick in the end zone and 1495 01:20:20,479 --> 01:20:22,400 Speaker 3: on what looked like it was going to be a 1496 01:20:22,439 --> 01:20:24,880 Speaker 3: touchdown for Nebraska, game goes to overtime, it was. If 1497 01:20:25,000 --> 01:20:28,320 Speaker 3: Nebraska wins that game, they're six and oh also just 1498 01:20:28,360 --> 01:20:31,599 Speaker 3: like Indiana, and this line is a couple points lower. 1499 01:20:32,160 --> 01:20:35,080 Speaker 3: So I agree, I think Nebraska is super live in 1500 01:20:35,120 --> 01:20:38,599 Speaker 3: this game. Yeah, I mean Nebraska loses every one possession game, 1501 01:20:38,640 --> 01:20:40,240 Speaker 3: So that's probably what's gonna happen here. They'll find a 1502 01:20:40,240 --> 01:20:43,519 Speaker 3: way to lose. Their special teams are bad too, and 1503 01:20:43,640 --> 01:20:45,479 Speaker 3: that's probably what it'll cost them. But yeah, too many 1504 01:20:45,520 --> 01:20:49,799 Speaker 3: points here. But that Albama Tennessee game, I have no clue. 1505 01:20:51,680 --> 01:20:54,639 Speaker 1: Let's ended on that, stucky. Let's uh. I'm pretty excited 1506 01:20:54,720 --> 01:20:57,120 Speaker 1: college football slate. This is a pretty good football slate. 1507 01:20:57,200 --> 01:20:57,920 Speaker 1: I mean, Sunday in. 1508 01:20:58,360 --> 01:21:00,679 Speaker 3: The NFL closes this one in the NFL. I knew 1509 01:21:00,720 --> 01:21:02,479 Speaker 3: going in the slate was bad. I mean there was 1510 01:21:02,520 --> 01:21:05,720 Speaker 3: a ton of road favorite just big mismatches, and yeah, 1511 01:21:06,080 --> 01:21:07,880 Speaker 3: and we're getting we're getting two of the worst games 1512 01:21:07,880 --> 01:21:11,400 Speaker 3: out of the way before all the action starts with whatever, 1513 01:21:12,040 --> 01:21:14,400 Speaker 3: you know, the Thursday night game is not good? 1514 01:21:14,479 --> 01:21:15,960 Speaker 1: And then the Yeah, if I didn't do this for 1515 01:21:16,080 --> 01:21:17,800 Speaker 1: if I didn't do this for a living, you know, 1516 01:21:17,840 --> 01:21:21,040 Speaker 1: Thursday night, we're recording this before, I would probably take 1517 01:21:21,120 --> 01:21:23,000 Speaker 1: Maria to dinner or something and I and just not 1518 01:21:23,080 --> 01:21:25,840 Speaker 1: even pay attention. Yeah, that would be a game where 1519 01:21:25,880 --> 01:21:27,479 Speaker 1: I might just be like, you know, I'll wait for 1520 01:21:27,520 --> 01:21:28,799 Speaker 1: the weekend to watch the football. 1521 01:21:29,240 --> 01:21:31,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, and if you're feeling tired, or go out, you know, 1522 01:21:32,320 --> 01:21:34,080 Speaker 3: go out a little hard. This is a good Sunday 1523 01:21:34,120 --> 01:21:38,000 Speaker 3: to sleep in for the for the London game. I 1524 01:21:38,040 --> 01:21:39,519 Speaker 3: will end it on this because I feel like I 1525 01:21:39,600 --> 01:21:41,639 Speaker 3: usually give tons of ugly picks. I didn't give enough. 1526 01:21:42,240 --> 01:21:44,599 Speaker 3: I didn't give any really any this week. I'll say 1527 01:21:44,680 --> 01:21:48,240 Speaker 3: I did buy the Browns. That was my other favorite 1528 01:21:48,280 --> 01:21:51,719 Speaker 3: pick in addition to the Seahawks and Niners covered last week. Yeah, 1529 01:21:51,880 --> 01:21:53,679 Speaker 3: it's just too many points. They played really well against 1530 01:21:53,680 --> 01:21:55,600 Speaker 3: Borrow that defense. The team will get up for this. 1531 01:21:56,479 --> 01:21:59,320 Speaker 3: They hate they hate the Bengals each other divisional home game. 1532 01:21:59,479 --> 01:22:05,160 Speaker 3: Bengals nothing but play close games all season long. Cooper loss, 1533 01:22:04,960 --> 01:22:08,680 Speaker 3: it hurts, But this team couldn't throw the ball. I 1534 01:22:08,680 --> 01:22:10,680 Speaker 3: mean like they're the only team the NFL doesn't have 1535 01:22:10,680 --> 01:22:13,479 Speaker 3: twenty points of three hundred dards total offense. So how 1536 01:22:13,520 --> 01:22:15,519 Speaker 3: much can he really be worth it a spread? Now, 1537 01:22:15,960 --> 01:22:17,680 Speaker 3: Clayton's gonna go back to the offense. They should have 1538 01:22:17,680 --> 01:22:20,840 Speaker 3: been running that Stefanski heavier sets, lean on the ground game. 1539 01:22:21,200 --> 01:22:24,080 Speaker 3: You got your tackles back, Rubb's gonna come back. Give 1540 01:22:24,120 --> 01:22:26,240 Speaker 3: them some juice. We'll get ten I imagine ten to 1541 01:22:26,280 --> 01:22:29,080 Speaker 3: fifteen carries. Throw to your tight ends run the ball, 1542 01:22:29,280 --> 01:22:32,040 Speaker 3: which you can do on sincy rely on your defense. 1543 01:22:32,200 --> 01:22:34,360 Speaker 3: This should be a lower scoring game, you know, six 1544 01:22:34,439 --> 01:22:37,519 Speaker 3: six and a half points super valuable. Burrow's won in 1545 01:22:37,600 --> 01:22:40,360 Speaker 3: three the past three years against Cleveland with four touchdowns 1546 01:22:40,360 --> 01:22:44,560 Speaker 3: four interceptions. This defense has given him issues. So I 1547 01:22:45,040 --> 01:22:49,160 Speaker 3: think and look, Cleveland's offense bad, bad, maybe even historically bad. 1548 01:22:50,040 --> 01:22:53,040 Speaker 3: But they're not this bad. I mean, they're they're converting 1549 01:22:53,479 --> 01:22:59,400 Speaker 3: nineteen percent of their third downs. That is unspeakably unheard 1550 01:22:59,439 --> 01:23:04,280 Speaker 3: of it. Since two thousand, there's been one team that's 1551 01:23:04,320 --> 01:23:08,240 Speaker 3: been under twenty five percent, yet alone under twenty That 1552 01:23:08,400 --> 01:23:10,720 Speaker 3: was the two thousand and five Niners. I think that 1553 01:23:10,840 --> 01:23:12,760 Speaker 3: was Mike and you would probably, I mean you would 1554 01:23:12,760 --> 01:23:13,479 Speaker 3: know Mike Nolan. 1555 01:23:14,240 --> 01:23:15,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was bad team. 1556 01:23:15,840 --> 01:23:17,679 Speaker 3: That was like one of the worst offenses of all time. 1557 01:23:17,840 --> 01:23:22,360 Speaker 3: Who was the It was Gore probably Brandon Lloyd who 1558 01:23:22,439 --> 01:23:23,880 Speaker 3: was the quarterback of that team. I don't even know. 1559 01:23:23,920 --> 01:23:27,200 Speaker 1: It might have been a Tim Rite type type guys. 1560 01:23:27,360 --> 01:23:29,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, they was. They're one of the worst offenses ever. 1561 01:23:29,280 --> 01:23:32,920 Speaker 3: They were at twenty four that was the that's the 1562 01:23:32,960 --> 01:23:38,000 Speaker 3: lowest since two thousand, I should say you. 1563 01:23:38,240 --> 01:23:41,880 Speaker 1: That was the time in college we were having conversations 1564 01:23:41,880 --> 01:23:44,240 Speaker 1: out on the West Coast. Could the USC Trojans with 1565 01:23:44,280 --> 01:23:46,120 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll beat the Niners? And it was like a 1566 01:23:46,520 --> 01:23:48,840 Speaker 1: legit argument where a lot of people felt strongly the 1567 01:23:48,840 --> 01:23:53,000 Speaker 1: Trojans could give the Niners a game. Yeah, I still 1568 01:23:53,200 --> 01:23:54,519 Speaker 1: you know, if you look back at some of those 1569 01:23:54,560 --> 01:23:57,080 Speaker 1: rosters that led to Alex Smith the number one overall pick. 1570 01:23:57,160 --> 01:24:00,120 Speaker 1: But the Niners were really really putrid, and then you know, 1571 01:24:00,160 --> 01:24:01,960 Speaker 1: they were so shitty they ended up with the Patrick 1572 01:24:02,000 --> 01:24:04,680 Speaker 1: Willison's the Vernon Davis's over the next couple of years. 1573 01:24:05,040 --> 01:24:08,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it was bad. They started. 1574 01:24:11,960 --> 01:24:16,479 Speaker 1: Maybe, uh Tim Ortay type quarterbacks. 1575 01:24:16,120 --> 01:24:19,280 Speaker 3: Did they really? They started Arnez Battle for eight games. 1576 01:24:19,680 --> 01:24:21,439 Speaker 1: Yeah he got a little run. 1577 01:24:22,080 --> 01:24:25,040 Speaker 3: Oh no, okay, maybe he was and never run it. 1578 01:24:25,479 --> 01:24:28,640 Speaker 3: Uh yeah he was, yeah, no, no, no, never mine he 1579 01:24:28,720 --> 01:24:31,040 Speaker 3: I was gonna say, how did he start a quarterback? Okay, 1580 01:24:31,360 --> 01:24:37,479 Speaker 3: Cody Pickett started a couple of games, Ken Dorsey started 1581 01:24:37,640 --> 01:24:43,360 Speaker 3: a handful of games, Tim Retey and Alex Smith. Alex 1582 01:24:43,400 --> 01:24:44,759 Speaker 3: Smith must have got hurt or something. 1583 01:24:45,600 --> 01:24:47,920 Speaker 1: Well what happened is or that was must have been 1584 01:24:47,920 --> 01:24:50,439 Speaker 1: his rookie year, so they just drafted him. It was 1585 01:24:50,439 --> 01:24:52,880 Speaker 1: one of those they didn't want to play him, I think, 1586 01:24:53,000 --> 01:24:54,720 Speaker 1: and then it's one of the because back then it 1587 01:24:54,760 --> 01:24:56,720 Speaker 1: was much more in vogue. Like I don't care where 1588 01:24:56,720 --> 01:24:59,200 Speaker 1: you were drafted, you just didn't play. But when you're 1589 01:24:59,240 --> 01:25:01,800 Speaker 1: that shitty, you get kind of thrown into the fire. 1590 01:25:02,800 --> 01:25:04,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, this team is bad, but I did play the Browns. 1591 01:25:04,560 --> 01:25:08,479 Speaker 3: I think it's just a bit too many points. It's ugly, 1592 01:25:08,520 --> 01:25:12,400 Speaker 3: but yeah, nineteen percent for the Browns. They they they 1593 01:25:12,479 --> 01:25:15,559 Speaker 3: hit a screen pass last week in the second half. 1594 01:25:15,600 --> 01:25:17,240 Speaker 3: They finally got their run game going. Helps to get 1595 01:25:17,240 --> 01:25:19,280 Speaker 3: their tackles back because the tackle situation was really bad. 1596 01:25:20,320 --> 01:25:21,920 Speaker 3: They had a screen pass I think for a first 1597 01:25:21,920 --> 01:25:25,400 Speaker 3: down against the Eagles. I think it ended a stretch 1598 01:25:26,120 --> 01:25:29,040 Speaker 3: of twenty sixth straight third down. 1599 01:25:29,600 --> 01:25:30,639 Speaker 1: This is pretty crazy. 1600 01:25:31,120 --> 01:25:36,120 Speaker 3: Twenty six The NFL team insane, So you would imagine 1601 01:25:36,160 --> 01:25:38,439 Speaker 3: they got to just anything's better. But they're gonna run it, 1602 01:25:38,439 --> 01:25:41,120 Speaker 3: throw to your tight ends, punt it, rely on your 1603 01:25:41,160 --> 01:25:43,599 Speaker 3: d This would be a lower scoring game, so, like, 1604 01:25:44,640 --> 01:25:49,759 Speaker 3: I don't know, Bengals probably win, like seventeen fourteen, twenty seventeen. 1605 01:25:50,840 --> 01:25:54,639 Speaker 1: If I hit my underdog college football parlay, I will 1606 01:25:54,640 --> 01:25:57,040 Speaker 1: I'll throw a little juice on that because then all 1607 01:25:57,080 --> 01:25:59,000 Speaker 1: of a sudden, the Browns cover again. They just be 1608 01:25:59,040 --> 01:26:00,840 Speaker 1: a covering machine. Start riding them. 1609 01:26:01,240 --> 01:26:01,439 Speaker 3: Yep. 1610 01:26:02,800 --> 01:26:05,639 Speaker 1: Okay, stucky, have a good weekend. Talk to you soon. 1611 01:26:06,160 --> 01:26:08,559 Speaker 3: See you, buddy, absolutely brother. Enjoy this light. I'll see 1612 01:26:08,600 --> 01:26:09,000 Speaker 3: you next week. 1613 01:26:12,760 --> 01:26:13,479 Speaker 1: The volume
