I'm sitting there, I'm watching everything play out, 26 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 3: and all I can think about as the Phillies advanced 27 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 3: was like, man, all I can think about was Couz 28 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 3: because I'm sitting here thinking to you, and I'm like 29 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 3: the marathon of the Major League Baseball season, and you 30 00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 3: get through it and you get a first round win, 31 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 3: you get a wild Card win, you get into this situation, 32 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 3: and the reward for making it through the marathon, the 33 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 3: gauntlet of the Major League Baseball season is you get 34 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 3: to take on a Braves team that I feel like, 35 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 3: since I don't know June, all we've been hearing is 36 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 3: this could be. 37 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: One of the greatest teams of all time. 38 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 3: Like get you go through all this work and you 39 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 3: suddenly you're facing a freight train coming right at you. 40 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 3: You know, I like your pluckiness. I like to I 41 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 3: like to I hear the confidence in your voice. I 42 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 3: respect that. I just I was feeling for it. I 43 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:31,920 Speaker 3: was like, of all the matchups to get I don't know, 44 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 3: I kind of I was hoping for better for you. 45 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 3: Somewhere across my heart broke a little bit. You go 46 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,679 Speaker 3: through this long season, you advance, and now you got 47 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 3: to take on a Braves team that I think the 48 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,920 Speaker 3: world is sort of a waiting to become like a 49 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 3: Disney movie or something. 50 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 2: You know, It's funny because I feel like completely the opposite. 51 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 2: I feel brimming with confidence because while I think that 52 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 2: Atlanta team is, I respect it. It's a great lineup, man, 53 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 2: it really Isn't mean you go around the horn and 54 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 2: you're looking at all from everybody from Olsen to Alby's 55 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:12,920 Speaker 2: to you know, Acunya to Riley right, I mean the 56 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 2: Azuna Rosario, I mean his name just keep coming, Michael Harris. 57 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 2: I mean, they just come at you one after another, 58 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 2: and they're completely dangerous. Like when you talk about the 59 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 2: one of the best teams, they have one of the 60 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 2: best lineups, and they have a great starting pitcher. But 61 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 2: it's singular. You know, Spencer Strider is an amazing, amazing town. 62 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 2: He's got an incredible arm, he's a tremendous picture. But 63 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 2: they only got one real starter right now. I mean 64 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 2: Freed coming off all the injuries he's had, He's got 65 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 2: a blister. I mean, you know, I mean he's good. 66 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 2: I mean he's good. But that's it. And then you're 67 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 2: talking about Bryce's elder in Game three. I gotta tell you, 68 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 2: I think advantage pitching when it comes to the Phillies 69 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 2: in both the starting rotation and the bullpen. And while 70 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 2: I think the Braves lineup is special and ridiculous and 71 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 2: one for the ages, the Phillies lineup is really really good. 72 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 2: Like it's not even used the word plucky. I would 73 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,600 Speaker 2: say that they're a legitimate, you know, slugging team that 74 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 2: is well suited to beat the Braves. Oh yeah again, 75 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,839 Speaker 2: because they beat them last year. Do you like to me? 76 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 2: The more the story and the pressure is more on 77 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 2: Atlanta Fitsie where the Braves go, oh bleep, we got 78 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 2: to face that team, We got to go into that 79 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:47,479 Speaker 2: ballpark that is just like no other scene across Major 80 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 2: League Baseball. I think the big story is do the 81 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 2: Braves have enough nerve to get past the first round 82 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 2: in a short series? 83 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 3: Well, look, there's a couple of things here. Because everything 84 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 3: you just said, which is everything you know, I've heard 85 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 3: and everybody I've talked to and tried to get an 86 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,479 Speaker 3: insight on what to expect out of this. Here's the 87 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,919 Speaker 3: wild thing to me, Like, I feel like you can 88 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 3: watch baseball for three seconds and you learn the basic principle. 89 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,839 Speaker 3: The playoff baseball is always about pitching, right, That's what 90 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 3: we all learn and everybody knows it because the way 91 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 3: they use rotations, the way the series work. You can 92 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 3: have a team that was so so, but if you 93 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 3: have the right pitching staff, you can get through tons 94 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 3: of you can have a tremendous amount of postseason. 95 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 2: It's sex. 96 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,239 Speaker 1: We all learned that. That's like baseball one to one. 97 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 3: The weirdest part about this is everything you said I 98 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 3: agree with, Like, I think the pitching is a real 99 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 3: question mark through playoff series for the Braves that I 100 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 3: think is fair to ask. Every time I try to 101 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 3: talk to anybody that I think is an expert or 102 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 3: a guru, and I say, why aren't we talking about? 103 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 3: The answer I get it is well, the rest of 104 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 3: the roster is just that good, Like the offense is. 105 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 1: So good that this is the exception to the rule. 106 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 3: What you're saying makes sense, and especially given the way, 107 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 3: You're right, the Phillies have hit the ball over the 108 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 3: last what three four months? 109 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:02,679 Speaker 2: Particularly, but line I mean once Tray Turner gets gets 110 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 2: rolling right like because he needs a legitimate it's Captain America, right. 111 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 2: I mean you're talking about the lineup that starts with 112 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 2: you know, schwar Bomb and then goes to Turner and 113 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 2: Alec Bohm and Bryce Harper and Costianos and Scott who 114 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 2: hit the Grand Slam the other night. I mean, I 115 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 2: mean that lineup other than like eight nine is a 116 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 2: little light, but I look at that top and the 117 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 2: first seven real Muto is is a formidable lineup. Like 118 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 2: it's not like, you know, you're facing a punching Judy 119 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 2: type of squad. 120 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,280 Speaker 3: And that's why, honestly, I think this is going to 121 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 3: be one of those must watch series for everybody, because 122 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 3: I do think it turns out to be at least 123 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 3: a better series than it could have been. 124 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,480 Speaker 1: In a lot of ways, it just. 125 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 3: Feels like the world not the world, but it feels 126 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 3: like every baseball expert I've talked to is like, yep, 127 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 3: just how do I mean, look at ESPN wrote an 128 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 3: article the other day that was like, how does how 129 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 3: do any of these teams beat the Braves, Like that's 130 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,279 Speaker 3: how good the Braves seem to be to everybody. 131 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: It's like, well, you know, got to write a whole 132 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 1: article on how. 133 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 3: Each of these teams could find a way to take 134 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 3: down the Braves. It just feels like Atlanta has been 135 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 3: put up on this perch, on this mound, and you're right, 136 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 3: maybe there's pressure that comes with that. I just don't 137 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 3: know that Atlanta even feels that, like, so that's a 138 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 3: wild part of it. This is camp, this is can't miss, 139 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 3: This is can't miss. This is by far that this 140 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 3: will be I think the best series of the first 141 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 3: round obviously, But it is funny because it feels like 142 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 3: the world out outside of feeling feels like the world is. 143 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: In on the Braves. 144 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 3: And I'm sitting over here saying like, hey, I'm a cousin, 145 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 3: Like this thing goes one way, Like the fellows want 146 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 3: to go to a World Series game together and you're 147 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 3: gonna have to uck that up, so like we're gonna 148 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 3: need this thing to advance. 149 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 2: I will say too, it is a blue October in 150 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 2: Los Angeles. I know our man Figgy is a feeling it. 151 00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 2: He can't wait, happy Blue October to you fig Yes, 152 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 2: it's happy blogged over it to both of you. And 153 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 2: by the way, so a couple of things on the 154 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 2: Phillies and Braves. I think to a certain degree, you're 155 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 2: both right, if that makes any sense. I think the 156 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 2: Phillies for your point, because do have all the right 157 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 2: to be confident because they beat them last year. 158 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 4: They do have an excellent lineup. 159 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 5: The Braves do have all the pressure on their shoulders 160 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 5: because they lost to the Phillies last season in this 161 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 5: exact same scenario. But I also think because of that 162 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 5: they're fairly confident. They're going to have a different mindset 163 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 5: going into the series, and I do think that they 164 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 5: have just as good of a shot of winning. Like 165 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 5: I understand the confidence from Philadelphia. We've already beaten them 166 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 5: last year, but that was last year. It's a little 167 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,719 Speaker 5: bit different, a little bit more offensive punch this year 168 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 5: for Atlanta. And from a pitching staff standpoint, I know 169 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 5: you said the Atlanta staff doesn't scare you. I don't 170 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 5: know if the Philly staff necessarily scares me either. From 171 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:47,719 Speaker 5: the other side of. 172 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 2: It, really no, what about wheel Saw I. 173 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 4: Like Wheeler, but is Wheeler that much better than Strider. 174 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 4: If we're saying that's a shows two cancel. 175 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 5: Okay, Now, if Freed and it's to your point, Freda 176 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 5: has had some injury issues and got to Freed last 177 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:01,680 Speaker 5: year in the playoffs. 178 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:03,559 Speaker 4: Admittedly so, but. 179 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,839 Speaker 2: And he didn't want to blister. I know, advantage Nola 180 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 2: all day long. Scare me either, dude, I mean, you know, 181 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 2: way unscare me. I think he's better than Freed. 182 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 4: I don't if all things were equal, he's not, at 183 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 4: least not to me real. 184 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 2: All right, Well, yeah, and then you're going, you know, 185 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 2: and then you got you know, the three start the game, 186 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 2: three starters, sware. 187 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 4: I think it's kind of a wash. The deeper you 188 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 4: go down. 189 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 2: I agree, I do think to wash. But then I 190 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 2: did you get to the bullpen? And I think it's 191 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 2: a clear advantage. Did Phillies get the crosser? Six guys 192 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 2: at you that have ridiculous arms to keep kirkering? Oreon? 193 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 2: Did you see this kid who came up from eight 194 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 2: ball this year who's throwing you know ninety eight would 195 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 2: back you up with it with a twelve sixth slider, 196 00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 2: like a slider that just dives all things off the play. 197 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I will say the Bullpen had their worst 198 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 3: month in September statistically, like they for Atlanta. 199 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: So you know, I have to. 200 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 3: Ask you guys, maybe maybe I'm just being too simple here. 201 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 3: There are we undervaluing Acunya, like because you keep mentioning 202 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,199 Speaker 3: last year series, But last year Akunya was not the 203 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 3: Acuna of this year, right, you know there there's a difference. 204 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: You know, there's just you got. 205 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 2: The I mean, listen, I mean, he's had an historical season. 206 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 2: I mean you're talking about a great, great season. I 207 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 2: agree with you, he's a great, great player. But on 208 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 2: the other side, you got Bryce Harper, so like you're 209 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 2: gonna have stars Olcindy's ridiclus, Riley's ridiculous, and they have 210 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 2: a great lineup. But on the other side, it's the 211 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 2: same thing, like you got the Harper and Schwarber and 212 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 2: you know Trey Turner, I. 213 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 5: Mean trade turn was not the best postseason player, but 214 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 5: it might not matter because their lineup is so deep. 215 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 4: I'll give you that. 216 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 2: And he's also hitting with age hitting well. And I 217 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 2: don't know about you know, I know you you know 218 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 2: he was in La you with Washington. He wasn't a 219 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 2: good post he's a performer there either this is this 220 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 2: is a long spitch, the one run and which remember 221 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 2: you know when they win it. He doesn't really do 222 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 2: much so like I hear you, but I look at 223 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 2: him and I think he's in the World Baseball Classic. 224 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 2: He was, he was the man, right, Like I, I 225 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 2: think he is a great talent. So I mean, I 226 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 2: think he's in that, you know, plus. 227 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 5: Plus he's one of the best players in baseball when 228 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 5: he's right. Absolutely, I'm just saying in bigger moments and 229 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 5: of all respect to the I don't know that he's 230 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:33,559 Speaker 5: a shrinker. 231 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 4: Yes, historically he has been. Yes, hees. 232 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. I don't know when you like, 233 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 2: when you go with that small the sample size. 234 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 5: Small, I mean a couple of postseason runs with the Dodgers, 235 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 5: a couple of with the Nationals, even in the Nationals. 236 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 2: Look at let's go analyze it and we'll look at it. 237 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 2: I mean, you if you hit me with the lumper thing, 238 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 2: I you know, I don't why. 239 00:11:57,679 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: Look that up. 240 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 5: I'll also tell you you can't throw on my face. Man, 241 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 5: this Phillies bullpen. When you when you look at who 242 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 5: your closer is, Kreg Krimble. You're trusting him in a 243 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 5: big spot. 244 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 2: I got four guys I could throw in that spot. 245 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 4: All right, well are you? 246 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 2: I mean? I'll be honest, I got I got four 247 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 2: live arms that I could throw in that spot. I got. 248 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 2: I have no fear ridiculous? 249 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: Did did Figga just deflect? 250 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 2: Though? 251 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 3: Like, because now we're having this whole conversation down playing 252 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 3: like both the Phillies and the Braves to some level, 253 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 3: And you haven't told me anything about the dot Like, 254 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 3: what's your level of Dodger confidence over there. 255 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 5: In the first round? It's Arizona extremely high? 256 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: Uh, I can't that, I'll give you, but but just 257 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 1: moving forward through that? 258 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 4: Oh not the best with that pitching staff? Absolutely not? 259 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 5: Okay, No, And look this their their general manager, Andrew 260 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:44,319 Speaker 5: Freeman comes from the Tampa Bay mindset. 261 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:45,559 Speaker 4: He basically built Tampa Bay. 262 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 5: And we saw what happened with them in this playoffs 263 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 5: trying to piecemeal together pitching staffs and opener this and 264 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,959 Speaker 5: match up that and analytics. Now, I do think one 265 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 5: thing that works in the Dodgers is not in their favor, 266 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 5: but it's almost born out of necessity. They just don't 267 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 5: have the health in their pitching staff at this point, 268 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:02,839 Speaker 5: so they almost have to, you know, perform that way 269 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 5: as opposed to in the past it was just a 270 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 5: philosophical way that they did things. So it's very you're 271 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 5: asking a lot for a bullpen to have to carry 272 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 5: the bulk of your innings, big innings throughout an entire 273 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 5: postseason run. I do think it can catch up with them, 274 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 5: So I think they'll get by Arizona in probably five 275 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 5: four games. Excuse me, but whoever they play in the 276 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 5: second round of Phillies or the Brave is gonna be 277 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 5: tough sledding for them. 278 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:29,199 Speaker 2: I mean, listen, they and they still have a great lineup. 279 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, Unfortunately, I agree with you there pitching. 280 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 2: It's quick. Listen, it's the beauty of baseball. And if 281 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 2: I'm in Baltimore today, I can't I could. I can't 282 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 2: sleep this morning looking forward to finally getting back. What 283 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 2: a great story the Orioles. 284 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:50,199 Speaker 5: Were absolutely coming about over one hundred plus losses turning 285 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,840 Speaker 5: it around to one hundred plus wins. 286 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 3: It is also significant too, because no matter what sport 287 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 3: we're talking about, just to be real, we don't pay 288 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 3: attention to new team teams until they have some sort 289 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 3: of playoff success. 290 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:03,079 Speaker 2: True, right, And so. 291 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 3: When you talk about the turnaround over two seasons from 292 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 3: just abject disaster to what they expect for a young 293 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 3: roster to be something that's competitive for quite a long 294 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 3: time for Baltimore, I think one of the significant things 295 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 3: here is this is the this is like get to 296 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 3: know your time now. We're like the world is about 297 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 3: to date the Baltimore Orioles. And I think that's what's 298 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 3: great playoffs, you know, and it's like everybody's gonna fall 299 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 3: in love with this team. And I think that's one 300 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 3: of the cool things that happens, especially because baseball has 301 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 3: a hard time at times during the regular season cutting 302 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 3: through to casuals. Casuals are going to watch this and 303 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 3: be like, wait, this is entertaining, and this story of 304 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 3: redemption for this franchise is incredible For a city that 305 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 3: also is true incredibly passionate about their team, I think 306 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 3: this is a big win for the There's a big 307 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 3: chance for the Orioles to win for the next several years. 308 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 5: And that same applies to Minnesota to a certain degree 309 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 5: to what seem they had won a playoff series in forever. 310 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 5: Having some good young talent. They know they can bash 311 00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 5: that bash the baseball out of the park. So I 312 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 5: think they're kind of along with the Baltimore sort of 313 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 5: America's darling because they've been so long suffering for a 314 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 5: while too. 315 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you're both going up against you know, let's 316 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 2: let's face it.

And I 435 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 2: got to get into the passing of Dick Buckets because 436 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 2: we got a legit Bears fan with us, a guy 437 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 2: who grew up in that era, and like I was 438 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 2: from the era of Lawrence Taylor, like I grew when 439 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 2: I was a kid, Like Lawrence Taylor was the dominant 440 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,919 Speaker 2: force of a linebacker. But you have always heard of 441 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 2: the specter of buckists, like Buckuts was, you know, linebacker 442 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 2: when linebackers really really mattered in that sport. And it's 443 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 2: it's odd right that he passes and the Bears finally 444 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 2: break that streak and Fields has a really good game. 445 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 2: It was a it was a good night night in 446 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 2: that you're bittersweet with Buckets, but you got to celebrate 447 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 2: his legacy and you want a football game, Mudy Mark. 448 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 2: It worked. 449 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:11,439 Speaker 1: They actually did it. 450 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 10: They all the defense seemed to all figure out how 451 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:19,919 Speaker 10: to work hard at the same time, and the offensive 452 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 10: line did their job to protect protect so that he 453 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:27,120 Speaker 10: could so Fields could you know, drop back and make 454 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 10: a play and you know, run from side to side. 455 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 10: So they all figured out how to do the hard 456 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 10: work at the same time. 457 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 4: It all worked out. 458 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:40,160 Speaker 2: You know, tell us about like Buckets, Like how about 459 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 2: a fitsy Buckets was has always been this, you know, 460 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 2: this legendary figure and he was he per signified linebacker Finci. 461 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:54,919 Speaker 3: And there's a crossover appeal to everything that he was. Right, Like, 462 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 3: some guys became bigger than the game and they became 463 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 3: pop culture phenomenons. Buckets did this that because of his personality. 464 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,199 Speaker 3: But the funny thing is the personality is only a 465 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,119 Speaker 3: fraction of who the football player was, right, Like the 466 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 3: football player of Dick Buckis was somebody that to your 467 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 3: point defined a generation of how the game was played 468 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 3: at a time when linebacker was the definition of defense. 469 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 3: I think, you know, for anybody young listening, you got 470 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 3: to remind people that the linebacker position used to be 471 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,159 Speaker 3: sort of the cog that made the entire defense go. 472 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: It was everything. 473 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,879 Speaker 3: So not only was it the communicator, but it was 474 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 3: the setting of tone for physicality in an era that 475 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,440 Speaker 3: you know, it was about how quickly can you track 476 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 3: somebody down and how hard can you hit them in 477 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 3: the process. Right, So buck has personified all of that 478 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 3: while doing it with this bigger, larger than live personality 479 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 3: that really made him a pop culture phenomenon. And sometimes 480 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 3: when that happens, I think we remember so much about 481 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 3: the human being. But you got to strip all that 482 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 3: away for a second when you're talking about Buckets and 483 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 3: just remember the football player, because you're talking about a 484 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,479 Speaker 3: level of dominance. That also changed the way that the 485 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 3: Bears were viewed as a franchise and how they approached football. 486 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 1: Right. 487 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:04,119 Speaker 3: So, I just think that what Buckets did for the 488 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 3: Bears as an organization resonated for multiple generations. What Buckets 489 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 3: did for the NFL resonated for multiple generations, and then 490 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 3: who Buckets became as a you know, TV sort of 491 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:18,080 Speaker 3: personality and an actor and all of these other things 492 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 3: that you would see him in that was all born 493 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 3: out of the fact that he was so incredible on 494 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 3: a football field. 495 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,199 Speaker 2: Did you see Mark? Yeah, I mean you had to. 496 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 2: I mean he had to be one of your heroes. 497 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 10: Right absolutely, you know, watching the games and you know, 498 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 10: I guess you know, receivers and anybody else was afraid 499 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,160 Speaker 10: to come through the middle because you had to deal 500 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 10: with him. And obviously, back in that day, players could 501 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 10: hit each other and they didn't get in trouble, and 502 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 10: Buckets would make you pay for coming in the middle. 503 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 6: You would pay dearly. 504 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:51,679 Speaker 1: You got the stretcher, he's not walking. 505 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 2: I mean it was nasty. I mean, I call you back. 506 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 2: You watched some of the you watch some of the 507 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 2: old tape, old film and stuff, and you go, man, 508 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 2: the game was. It might have the speed or the strength, 509 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 2: but it had the viciousness man all day long. 510 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 10: Just vicious hits, just his intensity, which you know came 511 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 10: down to singletary. 512 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 6: We had that kind of intensity. 513 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 10: But I think you kind of learned how to do 514 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,880 Speaker 10: that kind of intensity from watching Dick buckets, you know, 515 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 10: rule the linebacker thing. It just to hold the Bears 516 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 10: defense together that way. 517 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 3: You guys mentioned the physicality in the way they used 518 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 3: to hit. I just think it's funny if you ever 519 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,640 Speaker 3: go back on YouTube and watch like football games from 520 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:38,959 Speaker 3: the seventies and eighties, they're all out there. Watch how 521 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 3: differently built the bodies of the players are. Like it 522 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:44,439 Speaker 3: looks like everybody's skip leg day. Everybody was like super 523 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 3: super top heavy and just running like a you know, 524 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 3: like the flintstone feet and then massive, massive shoulders that 525 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 3: were just going to knock you into the ground. It's 526 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 3: funny how now you can see that because of the 527 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 3: way the game has changed, conditioning and training has changed. 528 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:00,680 Speaker 1: The body's balanced much more. 529 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 3: Buckas was a good example of that too, just like 530 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 3: huge on top and anybody in the waist. 531 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:11,400 Speaker 2: Yeah that's the truth. Like they were almost like barrels 532 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:11,920 Speaker 2: with feet. 533 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you're right, it's true. 534 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 2: Oh man, that's great stuff.

Does Fields performance Thursday? 566 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 2: Does that breathe life into him for you? 567 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 1: Yeah? I think it shows that. 568 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 3: You know, frankly, we got to be equally positive if 569 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 3: we as we would be negative, right, we were all 570 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 3: ready to fire Eberflus and let all of this move on. 571 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,879 Speaker 3: And you know, the conversation last week is that, you know, 572 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 3: Justin Fields is out and somebody's gonna trade for him, 573 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 3: and the Bears are gonna tank and Kayleb Williams is 574 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:28,680 Speaker 3: gonna be their new quarterback. 575 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 1: And he came out and he played really well. 576 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:32,440 Speaker 3: Now, I think part of that is on the fact 577 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 3: that the commander's defense was just abysmal. 578 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 1: In that game. 579 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 3: I don't think that, you know, I was better to 580 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 3: be lucky than good. My friend, like, I was doing 581 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 3: my fantasy football show for Yahoo, and they asked me 582 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 3: a player to watch in that game. I actually said 583 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 3: on air, DJ Moore is going to go off tonight, 584 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 3: even I didn't think DJ Moore would go off to 585 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 3: that level, like just the basic skill of I don't know, tackling. 586 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 3: Somebody was like, it's just I was a little stunned 587 00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 3: by that. But I think this shows you that there 588 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 3: is something too, as much as Justin Fields spoke out 589 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 3: a couple of weeks ago, there is something to just 590 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 3: consistently stay in the course for a young quarterback and 591 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 3: trying to get better every week. And you know Justin 592 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 3: Fields did that. So the problem is the Bears, I 593 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 3: still don't think are very good. And the Bears are 594 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 3: gonna be stuck in this situation where they're gonna have 595 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 3: to figure out how good Fields can be because the 596 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 3: next draft class is so loaded at quarterback. That's a 597 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 3: real conversation that's got to happen around Justin Fields. So 598 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 3: you know, I say going into Thursday night that the 599 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 3: week before was one week until we saw it two 600 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 3: weeks in a row. Now we've seen it two weeks 601 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 3: in a row, and he looks pretty good. It looks 602 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 3: like things have clicked. So I think the coaches have 603 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:40,479 Speaker 3: changed a little bit of what they're asking him to do. 604 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 3: He seems more comfortable in this offense, and that felt 605 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:45,080 Speaker 3: like the sort of win where you step back and 606 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 3: you say, wait a minute, maybe we do have something. 607 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 3: I just think everybody needs to calm down in the 608 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 3: early part of a football season and remember that we 609 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 3: aren't really gonna know who any of these players or 610 00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 3: teams are for seven, eight, nine weeks, and right now 611 00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 3: we're just overreacting to what we've seen the bad from 612 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 3: justin fields. Now we'll overreact to what we've seen. 613 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 1: That's good. We got to get like half a season 614 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 1: to figure out where he is. 615 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:10,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, now I figure what's your vibe when it 616 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 2: comes to fields? 617 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 5: So I remember saying a few weeks ago that I said, 618 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 5: the guy really can't play. And the only hope that 619 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 5: he has to be be a competent NFL starter is 620 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 5: if he's in an offense that accentuates his talents, you know, 621 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 5: something like to what the Eagles run or what Anthony 622 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 5: Richards is having success in Indianapolis, having really done that. 623 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 5: Granted he's played two really bad defenses, but I'll give 624 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 5: credit where credit is due. You play who's in front 625 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 5: of you, and I do think he's playing with more 626 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:37,680 Speaker 5: confidence these last couple of weeks. Still has some easy 627 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 5: throws and I think he missed on Thursday. But certainly 628 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 5: you put up those bigger numbers with someone like DJ Moore, 629 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 5: you know you're you're improving. So I'll give him all 630 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 5: the credit in the world for, you know, sucking it 631 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 5: up and taking responsibility and playing better these last couple 632 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 5: of weeks. 633 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 4: We'll see if he can carry it on. I don't 634 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 4: know if he can. I hope he does. I don't, 635 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 4: you know, wish him to play terribly right right, but 636 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 4: I hope he has able to turn the corner and 637 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 4: you know, be able to turn things around for the 638 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 4: Bears franchise, because I mean, they've been so quarterback starred 639 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 4: for I mean ever, Mark was the last good Bears 640 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 4: quarterback quarterback. 641 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 10: Jim McMahon way way, way way back, and you're gonna 642 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 10: even argue with color good he actually was. 643 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 4: I like Cutler, but even Cutler was not as good 644 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 4: as he should have been. 645 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 2: He was talented, definitely, Definitely he had to hate the face, 646 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 2: Yes he did. 647 00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:26,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think to you guys, we just got to 648 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,960 Speaker 3: accept that Thursday night football is going to be weird 649 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 3: all year long. Like Thursday night football is always weird. 650 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 3: Like a couple of rules of thumb that I found 651 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 3: on Thursday Night football. 652 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: A if you're a. 653 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 3: Dabbler, always bet the over on rushing yards for any 654 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 3: mobile quarterback. It's just I mean, I've been doing it 655 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 3: for two years and it wins ever more often than not. 656 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:47,280 Speaker 3: It was I think forty six and a half for 657 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 3: fields on Thursday night. 658 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 1: He went over it. Like, but the reason that. 659 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 2: That's smart you're not containment short week, No, I think 660 00:31:57,720 --> 00:31:58,480 Speaker 2: you're spot. 661 00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 3: On, like exactly, because it's a short week, things break down, 662 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 3: people aren't as prepared and then all of a sudden, 663 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 3: everybody just goes to their natural instincts. But the fact that, 664 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 3: and you know this as well as anybody, because like 665 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 3: the fact that most of these teams have like a 666 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 3: walkthrough and a meeting to get ready for a game, 667 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 3: and that's it. 668 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 1: You know, how can you really be prepared for Thursday 669 00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 1: night football? You can't. 670 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 3: So the nice part about it is that the NFL 671 00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 3: gets to make a bunch of money and we get 672 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 3: an extra night of football. The bad part about it 673 00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 3: is I don't think Thursday Night Football is ever going 674 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 3: to be anything other than a weird outlier that makes 675 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 3: you know, sometimes bad teams will look good and good 676 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 3: teams will look bad, and you'll just have to chalk 677 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,200 Speaker 3: it off to like, all right, there we go, that 678 00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 3: was just Thursday night football. 679 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I you know, listen, I get it, and I 680 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 2: think you're right, you know, I mean, this is the 681 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 2: sport is tough to play on a short week. Now 682 00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 2: before you've always hated it, fig Oh. 683 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, I've never been a big fan of it for 684 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 4: that reason. You know, it's just very unpredictable. Teams aren't 685 00:32:57,760 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 4: fully healthy, you don't know what to expect, and these 686 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 4: games all too important, and you know, to be left 687 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 4: up to the vagaries of just having a short week. 688 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 4: If it's a special thing on Thanksgiving, maybe do something 689 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 4: at the end of the season, but every single week 690 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:11,840 Speaker 4: with the stakes this high, I'm just not the biggest 691 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:13,920 Speaker 4: fan of it. One thing I'll say before we move 692 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 4: off of this past. 693 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 5: Thursday's game, specifically, and we're talking about eber Flus being 694 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 5: on the hot seat and whether or not he should 695 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,360 Speaker 5: have lost his job. Why is nobody saying anything about 696 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 5: Ron Rivera. Can we like what has he done so special, 697 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 5: especially in his tenure at Washington and really outside of 698 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 5: really one maybe two seasons in Carolina, has he done 699 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 5: to be anointed as some great head coach. They've been 700 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 5: average his entire time in Washington. His baby on the 701 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 5: defensive side of the ball is terrible. In the secondary. 702 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 5: You have number one picks all up and down the 703 00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 5: defensive line and they're getting pushed around every single week, 704 00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 5: including by a Bears offensive line which no disrespect mark 705 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 5: is not good, is not good at all, and they 706 00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 5: get dominated up front. 707 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:57,760 Speaker 2: Well, I'll tell you this. I mean, I don't think 708 00:33:57,760 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 2: he'll be back next year. I would hope not if 709 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:03,600 Speaker 2: I'm a Commanders fan. I mean, remember this year he 710 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 2: almost had to be because of the ownership change. 711 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:08,480 Speaker 4: Correct, I get that. 712 00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:11,760 Speaker 2: Like when they come when Josh Harris comes in, it's late, 713 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:15,320 Speaker 2: it's you know, it's training camp is already on their way. 714 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 2: You're not going to make any change. You're just gonna 715 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 2: go status quad and the one thing I'll say about 716 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:23,440 Speaker 2: because Ron Ron's a good football man. He may not 717 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,840 Speaker 2: be the greatest head coach, but I think he's a 718 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 2: good football man and he's good for stability. So I 719 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 2: think it's just this season was just about that, let's 720 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:35,840 Speaker 2: let them get like, get let they're getting Josh Harris 721 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:38,879 Speaker 2: in that group, kind of get you, get their feet 722 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 2: wet a little bit, and then they would go in 723 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 2: and make a change. 724 00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:45,879 Speaker 3: I'm a double down on that even and say cause 725 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:49,400 Speaker 3: like I think he earned this season just for surviving 726 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:51,560 Speaker 3: what it's like to be the head coaches. Yeah, with 727 00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:53,799 Speaker 3: the lack of stability there, Like when you're spending as 728 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:56,160 Speaker 3: much time talking to Congress as you are talking to 729 00:34:56,200 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 3: your football team, that's a distraction the great deserves, right. 730 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, And the. 731 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:03,960 Speaker 3: Interesting part about this year is really going to be 732 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 3: at some point if the wheels fall off, what do 733 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,400 Speaker 3: they do? Because you know, Jack del Rio is the 734 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 3: defensive coordinator there. He obviously has head coaching experience at 735 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 3: a couple of different levels, so they could fire Ron 736 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 3: Rivera and immediately bring somebody up that has, you know, 737 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:19,640 Speaker 3: experienced as a head coach. And then Eric b Enemy 738 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:23,360 Speaker 3: has been the talking point for the last several years 739 00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 3: of you know, deserves a shot, deserves a shot, deserves 740 00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 3: a shot, like does he step up in an interim roll? 741 00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 2: Like? 742 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:31,239 Speaker 3: I think one thing that's interesting is that if the 743 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 3: commanders want change, that's easy to make with this particular staff, 744 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:37,880 Speaker 3: the way it's built, It's easier than it would be 745 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:41,280 Speaker 3: in some situations. But I think if your Washington's ownership 746 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,720 Speaker 3: group right now, you're just stepping back and you're analyzing everything, 747 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 3: and you're asking yourself, do we have the right people 748 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 3: in every like all the way from season ticket sales 749 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 3: to head coaching right now? 750 00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:56,720 Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, you know, it's good, but it can 751 00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 2: I don't know. I mean it's with the all the 752 00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:04,040 Speaker 2: stuff that they've had in the coffers, it's not good enough. 753 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:07,600 Speaker 2: So I would look at everything football. Ops. I agree 754 00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 2: with you, spot Online. Let's say quick too. We'll come 755 00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 2: right back, and we got to start our little foray 756 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:18,319 Speaker 2: into college football and the day's college football action where 757 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:21,080 Speaker 2: the fella is right here on Fox Sports Radio. 758 00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 9: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 759 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 9: the nation.

The thing for me is 785 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 3: I grew up, you know, an eighties hair metal fan, 786 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:54,360 Speaker 3: Like my first concert was Skid Rope bon Jovi, and like. 787 00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 1: I remember reading an interview when I was. 788 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:57,840 Speaker 3: A kid where John bon Jovi said, our job is 789 00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:00,400 Speaker 3: to write six minute movies.

You're just putting it. You're putting it 796 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:14,840 Speaker 3: in a music form. Now it's a three and a 797 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:17,239 Speaker 3: half minute version of it instead of a six minute song. 798 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:20,240 Speaker 3: But like, it's funny that that it's very movie related 799 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 3: for me, even when. 800 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:24,360 Speaker 2: I write, that's awesome, man, that's cool.

Well, 898 00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:11,160 Speaker 3: you'r DVR or you're gonna shut everything off. 899 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 1: Now and be okay, okay now. 900 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,960 Speaker 2: I mean, because here's the thing. The game starts at six. 901 00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:21,200 Speaker 2: Anthony's game starts at six forty five. So I'll sit 902 00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:25,680 Speaker 2: on the phone throwing warm ups, right, and I can 903 00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,719 Speaker 2: watch it on my phone. I'll probably do that and 904 00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:33,480 Speaker 2: then as long as I keep enough juice, and then 905 00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:35,680 Speaker 2: I'll you know, check it every once in a while 906 00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 2: because there's no way in the world I'll be able 907 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:41,279 Speaker 2: to not check the score. I just there's no way 908 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:44,359 Speaker 2: I know it. I can't. I can't. It's too much 909 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,879 Speaker 2: the fact that an event is happening. I'm not about 910 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:51,280 Speaker 2: r with sports, Like when an event happens, I can't 911 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:52,000 Speaker 2: sit back. 912 00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 1: And go I'm just gonna DVR and watch it later. 913 00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:55,600 Speaker 2: It drives me nuts. 914 00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:58,800 Speaker 3: I have to be really calculated, like when the Raiders 915 00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:02,000 Speaker 3: have played and I'm doing something else. So like, especially 916 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:04,080 Speaker 3: when I was touring, if I had a show, you know, 917 00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:06,600 Speaker 3: and couldn't rutch it. But the amount of times that 918 00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:08,880 Speaker 3: means I have to turn everything off. I have to 919 00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:11,399 Speaker 3: turn my phone completely off, I have to turn all 920 00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:13,760 Speaker 3: my devices completely off, and I have to stay away 921 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:16,520 Speaker 3: from absolutely anything until I can get in front of 922 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:18,239 Speaker 3: the TV. And then I watched the game from the 923 00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:20,720 Speaker 3: outset because the one thing that's the bummer is usually 924 00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:23,480 Speaker 3: the Raiders lose. So suddenly, you know, I've spent all 925 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:25,799 Speaker 3: day trying to protect myself from knowing the score. And 926 00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:28,040 Speaker 3: then somebody will be you know, you know, walking through 927 00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:30,240 Speaker 3: somewhere and somebody'd be like, oh man, tough loss today, 928 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:31,920 Speaker 3: and I'm like, OK, right now, I'm gonna go back 929 00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:34,319 Speaker 3: and watch that. So I have to turn everything off 930 00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:36,360 Speaker 3: if I'm gonna do it, So like I actually become 931 00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:40,239 Speaker 3: completely disconnected from the world for as long as it 932 00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 3: takes me to get to the DVR where I have 933 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:42,800 Speaker 3: taped the game. 934 00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. See, I hear you. I can't shut out the world, Figgie, 935 00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 2: can you shut the world out? 936 00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 4: Because I can't do that in today's day and age. 937 00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:54,479 Speaker 5: No, it was easier, I'd say ten twelve years ago 938 00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:56,879 Speaker 5: before the twitter verse, you know, popped up or whatever 939 00:44:56,920 --> 00:44:59,279 Speaker 5: the hell it's called now. You just and I'm just 940 00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:02,760 Speaker 5: constantly b with alerts from social media for different sports 941 00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:05,319 Speaker 5: things that are happening, so it's almost it's difficult for 942 00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:09,280 Speaker 5: me to avoid it if I tried today. So previously, 943 00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:12,040 Speaker 5: absolutely you have to be more proactive, go online, check 944 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:13,880 Speaker 5: a score out, and I could do it if I 945 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:16,239 Speaker 5: wanted to, and I did at times, but now I've 946 00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:17,240 Speaker 5: just totally submitted. 947 00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:17,960 Speaker 4: There's just no way. 948 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:20,040 Speaker 5: If there's a live sporting event going on, I'm just 949 00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:21,440 Speaker 5: I'm going to know what's happening. 950 00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:23,799 Speaker 4: So I've just fully submitted it. At this point. 951 00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:26,239 Speaker 5: I'll go back and watch things the NFL, plus the 952 00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:30,239 Speaker 5: DVR all that stuff. Yeah, but yeah, I've totally given 953 00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:31,960 Speaker 5: up on being able to shut the world out. 954 00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:34,279 Speaker 4: Don't talk to me, dude, I'm taping it that those 955 00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:34,919 Speaker 4: days are over. 956 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:38,800 Speaker 2: I will I actually, yeah. 957 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:41,120 Speaker 3: I've learned to get off of social media during Raiders 958 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 3: games because I've been streaming some version of Sunday Ticket 959 00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:47,360 Speaker 3: for as long as they'd had to stream overile just 960 00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:51,279 Speaker 3: this year, and like between that and I don't even 961 00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:53,480 Speaker 3: watch I don't even watch red Zone during Raiders games 962 00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:56,640 Speaker 3: because Red Zone is always ahead, so I have to 963 00:45:56,680 --> 00:45:58,600 Speaker 3: stay off Twitter.

FITZI Texas only five against Oklahoma. 992 00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:34,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think the line's wrong. I'm gonna be 993 00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:38,040 Speaker 3: honest for a second. If Texas and I believe Texas 994 00:47:38,080 --> 00:47:40,160 Speaker 3: is going to go in there and beat the hell 995 00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:44,319 Speaker 3: out of Oklahoma. And when they do that, when they 996 00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:47,479 Speaker 3: do that, my god, Texas needs to be the number 997 00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:48,320 Speaker 3: one team in the country. 998 00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:48,440 Speaker 1: Like. 999 00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 3: This isn't about being anti Georgia or anti Michigan. 1000 00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:52,720 Speaker 1: I'm neither. 1001 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:56,440 Speaker 3: It's just about, at some point asking teams to play 1002 00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:59,920 Speaker 3: other teams that have some sort of worthwhile resume to 1003 00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:03,040 Speaker 3: Like right now, Texas has a win over Alabama, who 1004 00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:05,960 Speaker 3: at the time was number three, and they absolutely crushed 1005 00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:09,279 Speaker 3: number twenty four Kansas last week. Now, maybe Alabama and 1006 00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:11,839 Speaker 3: Kansas aren't that good, but at the time they were 1007 00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:13,920 Speaker 3: viewed to be at least that good. Now they have 1008 00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:16,560 Speaker 3: a chance against number twelve Oklahoma in a world where 1009 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:19,400 Speaker 3: Georgia has yet to play four quarters of football together 1010 00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:20,200 Speaker 3: in one game. 1011 00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:22,640 Speaker 1: I cannot figure out for the life. 1012 00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:24,919 Speaker 3: Of me why they're number one based on anything other 1013 00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:27,600 Speaker 3: than what we thought they would be in reputation. And 1014 00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:30,239 Speaker 3: Michigan has played a bunch of cupcakes in the batsket Like, 1015 00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:33,440 Speaker 3: I'm not sitting here sitting saying, oh my god, this 1016 00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:36,120 Speaker 3: is some epic win. I don't have epic wins from 1017 00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:39,080 Speaker 3: anybody other than at least Texas. When you're talking about 1018 00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:41,160 Speaker 3: the top three right now. When they go in and 1019 00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:44,200 Speaker 3: I think they will and they dominate Oklahoma, that my god, 1020 00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:46,440 Speaker 3: We've got to If they're not number one, then what 1021 00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:48,160 Speaker 3: is the point of the ap top twenty five? 1022 00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:53,719 Speaker 2: All right, So just for your ratification, Oklahoma beats Arkansas 1023 00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,080 Speaker 2: State seventy three, now, if it may be SMU twenty 1024 00:48:56,080 --> 00:49:00,160 Speaker 2: eight to eleven. They beat Tulsa sixty six seventeen, eat 1025 00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:03,560 Speaker 2: Cincinnati on the road twenty to six, and then last 1026 00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:05,760 Speaker 2: week they put a fifty burger up on Iowa State 1027 00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 2: fifty to twenty. So that's where you're at with who 1028 00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:14,360 Speaker 2: Oklahoma is. And again they've looked dominant against far you know, 1029 00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:18,560 Speaker 2: less superior teams. I'm with you. I love Texas, man. 1030 00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:23,120 Speaker 2: I mean, Texas buries Kansas last week. They've buried Baylor, 1031 00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:27,520 Speaker 2: they buried Wyoming, they beat Alabama. I mean, I don't 1032 00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:30,680 Speaker 2: know what Texas needs to do. I was shocked at 1033 00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:34,560 Speaker 2: the line only five Figgi, you're a good line reader. Five? 1034 00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:35,720 Speaker 2: Don't that seems short. 1035 00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:37,440 Speaker 5: I don't know if I'm a good line reader or not, 1036 00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:40,719 Speaker 5: but it doesn't surprise me. You know, Kansas last week 1037 00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:43,040 Speaker 5: didn't have their starting quarterback and late in the third 1038 00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:45,279 Speaker 5: quarter that was a one possession game. Yes, they pulled 1039 00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:47,759 Speaker 5: away late, and that's what great teams do. We also 1040 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:50,640 Speaker 5: have to consider outside of last season when Texas shut 1041 00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:53,640 Speaker 5: Oklahoma out. Regardless of which of these teams has been 1042 00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:57,279 Speaker 5: good or bad, this game is almost always close. It's 1043 00:49:57,320 --> 00:50:00,279 Speaker 5: a rivalry game. Venables defense has much improved this year 1044 00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:03,160 Speaker 5: from what it was last year. Yes, uh so not that. Look, 1045 00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:05,680 Speaker 5: they haven't played great composition. You're one hundred percent right, 1046 00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:08,760 Speaker 5: but their defense is so much improved. Texas. The final 1047 00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:12,720 Speaker 5: score looks dominant over Kansas. It really wasn't, considering Kansas 1048 00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:14,759 Speaker 5: didn't have one of the best playmakers in the countries in. 1049 00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:21,560 Speaker 2: Daily overstate it now but position full disclosed drama Texas 1050 00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:24,919 Speaker 2: like I like Texas, like I vote Texas would beat Alabama. Sure, 1051 00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:28,560 Speaker 2: some of his stayting. And you know some people don't 1052 00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:29,120 Speaker 2: like Texas. 1053 00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:30,719 Speaker 5: I have nothing against them, and I agree with you 1054 00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:34,040 Speaker 5: guys that they should be number one, But I don't 1055 00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:35,719 Speaker 5: mind the line being a touchdown or less. 1056 00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:39,320 Speaker 3: I will say this and I'll always admit my bias. 1057 00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:43,120 Speaker 3: Kansas coach Lance Lightpold close friend of mine. I always 1058 00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:45,520 Speaker 3: root for Kansas. I watched every snap of that game, 1059 00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:48,760 Speaker 3: and I think that Lanceloppold is one of the better 1060 00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:50,759 Speaker 3: coaches in the country when it comes to making the 1061 00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:53,440 Speaker 3: most out of whatever he has. And without Daniels as 1062 00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:56,800 Speaker 3: a quarterback, they were limited to say it politely throughout 1063 00:50:56,800 --> 00:50:59,799 Speaker 3: the course of that game. But I expected Kansas and 1064 00:50:59,840 --> 00:51:02,719 Speaker 3: to be a one score game. I think right now 1065 00:51:02,719 --> 00:51:04,960 Speaker 3: on a neutral field, if you give me Kansas versus 1066 00:51:04,960 --> 00:51:07,160 Speaker 3: Oklahoma on a neutral field, I think. 1067 00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:08,120 Speaker 1: That's a darn close game. 1068 00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:11,359 Speaker 3: I don't think Oklahoma is any better than Kansas definitively 1069 00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:15,160 Speaker 3: across the board. And so the argument for Oklahoma this 1070 00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:17,600 Speaker 3: year has been a combination of well their defense is 1071 00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:19,680 Speaker 3: given up far less points per game. Again, I don't 1072 00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:22,200 Speaker 3: think they've played anybody, and Dylan Gabriel seems to have 1073 00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:25,120 Speaker 3: a rhythm. Again, I don't think they've played anybody. So 1074 00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:27,960 Speaker 3: when I look at this matchup, I've got a Texas 1075 00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:30,400 Speaker 3: team that has been tested, the Texas team that is 1076 00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:33,400 Speaker 3: playing quality defense for the Big twelve, particularly with a 1077 00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:36,040 Speaker 3: good quarterback with good weapons around him, and with a 1078 00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:39,480 Speaker 3: solid They've got solid lines on both sides. I think 1079 00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:42,880 Speaker 3: Texas is being undervalued because, and I've done it myself. 1080 00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:45,279 Speaker 3: Every year we come in and say is Texas back? 1081 00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:47,960 Speaker 3: And the answer to that is usually hell no. And 1082 00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:50,279 Speaker 3: the problem is, at some point we can't judge this 1083 00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:53,239 Speaker 3: Texas team by the fact the previous year's teams haven't 1084 00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:56,440 Speaker 3: been able to hold the course on being back. I 1085 00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:58,680 Speaker 3: don't know if Texas is back long term in this 1086 00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:01,920 Speaker 3: weird college football year, but in this matchup, if I'm 1087 00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:04,960 Speaker 3: looking at it, like the scale of Justice, Lady Liberty, 1088 00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:07,080 Speaker 3: on one side, I got proof of concept. On the 1089 00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:10,359 Speaker 3: other side, I got nothing from Oklahoma. So that's why 1090 00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:11,799 Speaker 3: I think Texas rolls in this game. 1091 00:52:11,920 --> 00:52:14,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, like the thing, and I don't disagree with most 1092 00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:16,319 Speaker 5: of what you said there. The problem is when it 1093 00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:18,279 Speaker 5: comes to this rivalry thing, most of the time you 1094 00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:20,000 Speaker 5: can just throw it out of the window. Like I 1095 00:52:20,040 --> 00:52:22,799 Speaker 5: said last year, I think was an aberration. Regardless of 1096 00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:24,879 Speaker 5: how good or bad these teams are. If I think 1097 00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:28,320 Speaker 5: the previous five matchups are all within one score, Oklahoma 1098 00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:30,440 Speaker 5: was great at certain points. Texas was much better at 1099 00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:33,719 Speaker 5: certain points. I think having a dynamic quarterback or at 1100 00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:36,600 Speaker 5: least an impact quarterback does matter. And that game last 1101 00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:39,279 Speaker 5: week is even closer if Daniels is playing. So the 1102 00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:42,040 Speaker 5: fact that you have Gabriel in there, I think makes 1103 00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:43,960 Speaker 5: a difference for Oklahoma. I don't think they're gonna win, 1104 00:52:44,520 --> 00:52:46,520 Speaker 5: make no mistake about it. Do I think the Oklahoma's 1105 00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:49,120 Speaker 5: winning this game today. But I do think a one 1106 00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:51,680 Speaker 5: score or even if it's ten, you know, or you know, 1107 00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:54,799 Speaker 5: I personally believe that this is gonna be more of 1108 00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:56,799 Speaker 5: a closer to a one possession game. And I do 1109 00:52:56,880 --> 00:52:58,839 Speaker 5: not think that Texas just gonna steamroll them. 1110 00:52:58,920 --> 00:52:59,279 Speaker 2: I don't. 1111 00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:03,200 Speaker 5: Interesting history and his history and his rivalry says that 1112 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:04,840 Speaker 5: that is not going to happen. 1113 00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:07,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, well, the history of it is. I do 1114 00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:10,520 Speaker 2: think this Texas team's really good and I agree. 1115 00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:11,239 Speaker 1: I think should. 1116 00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:15,000 Speaker 2: I think they're legit. So you know, you listen. Your 1117 00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:18,440 Speaker 2: point about the rivalry is right. I mean that that Oklahoma, 1118 00:53:18,520 --> 00:53:21,759 Speaker 2: mean that that this rivalry has always been wild no 1119 00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:25,799 Speaker 2: matter who's been up. There's been times when Oklahoma recently 1120 00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:30,480 Speaker 2: who when Oklahoma went through its run and was in 1121 00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:35,080 Speaker 2: a dominant state and Texas played them tough. Because it 1122 00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:37,719 Speaker 2: is that storied rivalry. We'll come back. I'm gonna kind 1123 00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:40,600 Speaker 2: of look at the other one, including can Kentucky my 1124 00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:44,880 Speaker 2: man's southside Chuck, I know he's all Kentucky up his 1125 00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:53,080 Speaker 2: Wildcats against Georgia their first stiff test.

Ohio State has had flashes of 1149 00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:26,520 Speaker 3: that dominance particularly, but this just feels like the sort 1150 00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:28,920 Speaker 3: of game where the Terrapins have been able to take 1151 00:55:28,960 --> 00:55:31,680 Speaker 3: advantage of a lot of teams that they're better than. 1152 00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:33,840 Speaker 3: This is where they're squarely like, I think the line 1153 00:55:33,840 --> 00:55:36,239 Speaker 3: on this is probably right. I think Ohio State kind 1154 00:55:36,239 --> 00:55:39,080 Speaker 3: of runs away with this football game. It's just the 1155 00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:41,440 Speaker 3: Terps aren't ready for the amount of points that Ohio 1156 00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:42,399 Speaker 3: State can put up on them. 1157 00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:45,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the same thing. Ohio State is nineteen figure. 1158 00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:48,920 Speaker 2: I think the say there, I do not see a 1159 00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:49,680 Speaker 2: scare here. 1160 00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:53,480 Speaker 5: Uh, it depends on what your definition of scare is. 1161 00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:55,759 Speaker 5: I do think Maryland can cover the nineteen, but I 1162 00:55:55,760 --> 00:55:58,560 Speaker 5: do think it'll end up being, you know, ten ish points. 1163 00:55:58,600 --> 00:55:59,520 Speaker 5: I think Maryland can. 1164 00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:01,640 Speaker 2: Score me one possession fourth quarter. 1165 00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:02,080 Speaker 13: Uh. 1166 00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:04,640 Speaker 5: You know what, I could see that. I can definitely 1167 00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:06,600 Speaker 5: see that happening with the way that Maryland can score. 1168 00:56:06,640 --> 00:56:08,680 Speaker 5: You mentioned now, FITZI brings up a good point. Ohio 1169 00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:12,480 Speaker 5: State really hasn't burst it out yet, and we're expecting 1170 00:56:12,520 --> 00:56:15,000 Speaker 5: that to happen. But sometimes when it comes to teams 1171 00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:17,480 Speaker 5: like this, it just doesn't, especially when incorporating a new 1172 00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:21,560 Speaker 5: quarterback in column Accord, who's been solid but certainly nothing special. 1173 00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:24,400 Speaker 5: And we know Tagobaoloa can have some big games and 1174 00:56:24,440 --> 00:56:26,000 Speaker 5: they can score some points, and I think they can 1175 00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:27,359 Speaker 5: move the ball against Ohio State. 1176 00:56:27,680 --> 00:56:29,200 Speaker 4: I do not think Maryland wins at all. 1177 00:56:29,239 --> 00:56:31,280 Speaker 5: But if we're saying this can be a one possession 1178 00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:33,600 Speaker 5: game going into the fourth quarter and maybe Ohio State 1179 00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:36,520 Speaker 5: wins by ten, I can absolutely see that happening. 1180 00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:37,440 Speaker 2: Kaik so you got it. 1181 00:56:37,840 --> 00:56:40,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't love the over under on this one. 1182 00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:42,000 Speaker 3: I think it was fifty seven last time I looked 1183 00:56:43,040 --> 00:56:45,279 Speaker 3: to the point that Figgie was just making like both 1184 00:56:45,320 --> 00:56:47,360 Speaker 3: these teams can score, right. This just feels like this 1185 00:56:47,480 --> 00:56:49,320 Speaker 3: is going to be to me, I think Ohio State's 1186 00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:51,399 Speaker 3: gonna win by twenty, but I could see this being 1187 00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:53,960 Speaker 3: like literally fifty to thirty sort of thing. It just 1188 00:56:53,960 --> 00:56:55,560 Speaker 3: feels like points are going to be all over the 1189 00:56:55,600 --> 00:56:56,960 Speaker 3: place on this agree. 1190 00:56:57,040 --> 00:56:58,279 Speaker 2: Fifty seven seems light. 1191 00:56:58,480 --> 00:56:59,200 Speaker 4: It does seem low. 1192 00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:05,000 Speaker 2: Hmm. That's interesting. We had the big brain on we'll 1193 00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:10,840 Speaker 2: run it by them. LSU missou uh miszoo five and 1194 00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:14,400 Speaker 2: oh LSU. Disappointing three and two, FITZI. 1195 00:57:14,560 --> 00:57:16,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think one of the hardest parts about 1196 00:57:16,360 --> 00:57:18,680 Speaker 3: that is what you just said is disappointing three and two, 1197 00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:21,800 Speaker 3: Because if you're LSU, your belief for a lot of 1198 00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:24,400 Speaker 3: this season has been like, hey, don't worry about that 1199 00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:26,440 Speaker 3: Week one loss, even though it was a blowout. 1200 00:57:26,480 --> 00:57:27,640 Speaker 1: In the tank commandments of the. 1201 00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:30,200 Speaker 3: College football playoffs say thou shalt never get blown out. 1202 00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:32,280 Speaker 3: You could still look at it and say, hey, we 1203 00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:34,520 Speaker 3: got a path, right Like now they don't have a 1204 00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:38,200 Speaker 3: path so losing Ole Miss was catastrophic for where they 1205 00:57:38,200 --> 00:57:39,880 Speaker 3: want to get to this season, for what they thought 1206 00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:43,120 Speaker 3: they could be. LSU people around the program genuinely thought 1207 00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:44,800 Speaker 3: they could shock the world and they could get their 1208 00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:47,440 Speaker 3: way to the college football playoff. Now with two losses, 1209 00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:50,200 Speaker 3: they can't. And in my mind, on top of that, 1210 00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:52,680 Speaker 3: you got to sort of shake off the weird loss 1211 00:57:52,680 --> 00:57:55,160 Speaker 3: that came in that old miss game, where you know, frankly, 1212 00:57:55,200 --> 00:57:57,200 Speaker 3: that was such a wild game. I'm looking at this 1213 00:57:57,200 --> 00:58:00,200 Speaker 3: Missouri thing and my biggest question isn't even about the 1214 00:58:00,200 --> 00:58:03,280 Speaker 3: players or the ability of the players. My biggest question 1215 00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:05,720 Speaker 3: is the mental focus and the give a damn when 1216 00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:07,200 Speaker 3: you come on the field against Missouri. 1217 00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:08,160 Speaker 1: This goes one of two ways. 1218 00:58:08,200 --> 00:58:11,040 Speaker 3: If LSU is angry thunder of the gods, then I 1219 00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:13,120 Speaker 3: think they could win this game easily. But if they're 1220 00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:16,120 Speaker 3: distracted because their season is over, things start to really 1221 00:58:16,160 --> 00:58:16,680 Speaker 3: free fall in. 1222 00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:18,160 Speaker 1: Missouri could win this football game. 1223 00:58:18,960 --> 00:58:22,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, the bubble. When your bubble bursts, Yeah, you never 1224 00:58:22,840 --> 00:58:24,400 Speaker 2: know how you're going to react to it. 1225 00:58:24,440 --> 00:58:26,000 Speaker 1: And I feel you. 1226 00:58:27,920 --> 00:58:32,920 Speaker 2: The fig Washington State unbeaten now takes on UCLA. 1227 00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:36,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, the UCLA's had one of the better defenses in 1228 00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:39,280 Speaker 5: the country early on, but they also haven't played anybody. 1229 00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:41,360 Speaker 5: They did but you know, lost to Utah, but pretty 1230 00:58:41,400 --> 00:58:43,040 Speaker 5: much help them down the majority of the game, but 1231 00:58:43,160 --> 00:58:46,600 Speaker 5: Utah's had their offensive issues. Washington State cam Ward but 1232 00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:48,479 Speaker 5: not one of the best quarterbacks in the Pac twelve. 1233 00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:50,480 Speaker 5: He's one of the best quarterbacks in the country. And 1234 00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:52,520 Speaker 5: a lot of people don't see Washington State play because 1235 00:58:52,520 --> 00:58:55,040 Speaker 5: they're tucked up in the corner of the country there. 1236 00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:57,520 Speaker 5: But they're one of the best teams in college football 1237 00:58:57,560 --> 00:59:00,000 Speaker 5: so far early on this year. So I like washing 1238 00:59:00,120 --> 00:59:03,000 Speaker 5: In State going into Ucla to get a victory. And look, 1239 00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:05,040 Speaker 5: I think Ucla is favored by three and a half 1240 00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:06,600 Speaker 5: four points, depending on where you look. 1241 00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:08,640 Speaker 2: I like the Coogs by at least a touchdown. I 1242 00:59:08,680 --> 00:59:14,320 Speaker 2: think they roll all right. Fitzi Alabama, A and M. 1243 00:59:14,560 --> 00:59:20,360 Speaker 2: So we talked last week about BAMA and the Mississippi 1244 00:59:20,360 --> 00:59:25,360 Speaker 2: State and curious to see there was no scare there, 1245 00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:29,080 Speaker 2: because I thought maybe there was a scare Alabama roles 1246 00:59:30,200 --> 00:59:35,280 Speaker 2: and now A and M battle of one loss teams. 1247 00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:39,480 Speaker 2: Bama a two point favorite on the road, coylein station. 1248 00:59:40,120 --> 00:59:44,880 Speaker 3: So the interesting challenge here for Alabama defensively is that 1249 00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:47,920 Speaker 3: Texas A and M is wildly balanced. It is rare 1250 00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:50,760 Speaker 3: to find a team in college football that is committed 1251 00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:53,640 Speaker 3: to both running and throwing the football at an even clip, 1252 00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:56,160 Speaker 3: and this year that is Texas A and M's method. 1253 00:59:56,280 --> 00:59:58,600 Speaker 3: So their method is to wear you down. A perfect 1254 00:59:58,680 --> 01:00:01,600 Speaker 3: drive for this A and M team is a you know, 1255 01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:03,360 Speaker 3: we held the ball for eight and a half minutes 1256 01:00:03,440 --> 01:00:05,960 Speaker 3: with six runs and six passes on the drive. That 1257 01:00:06,120 --> 01:00:08,920 Speaker 3: takes a lot of defensive discipline. The other thing that 1258 01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:10,840 Speaker 3: I think is really concerning here is A and M's 1259 01:00:10,880 --> 01:00:14,240 Speaker 3: defense has struggled to get any sort of turnovers. So 1260 01:00:14,720 --> 01:00:16,680 Speaker 3: the way you're gonna beat Milrow in Alabama as you're 1261 01:00:16,680 --> 01:00:18,360 Speaker 3: gonna try and force them to make mistakes. 1262 01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:21,160 Speaker 1: I just don't know that Alabama is going to do that. 1263 01:00:21,360 --> 01:00:24,360 Speaker 3: So when you start looking at a really even football game, 1264 01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:27,880 Speaker 3: Alabama's got a challenge and can they shut down a 1265 01:00:28,000 --> 01:00:30,520 Speaker 3: very balanced offense. A and M's got a challenge of 1266 01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:34,320 Speaker 3: can they force mistakes for Alabama? I feel like Alabama's 1267 01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:36,880 Speaker 3: gonna win this football game. But man, this feels like 1268 01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:39,320 Speaker 3: one of those back and forth just punched in the face. 1269 01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:41,800 Speaker 3: I think I've been punched in the gut, being wrong 1270 01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:44,120 Speaker 3: about Alabama a couple of times this year, good and bad. 1271 01:00:44,360 --> 01:00:47,000 Speaker 3: So I'm hesitant to get anywhere near this game from 1272 01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:49,280 Speaker 3: a betting standpoint, But when you look at the action 1273 01:00:49,360 --> 01:00:51,280 Speaker 3: on the field, it feels like this comes down to 1274 01:00:51,520 --> 01:00:54,000 Speaker 3: this is a one possession football game, right between two 1275 01:00:54,560 --> 01:00:57,040 Speaker 3: football teams that at times lack discipline. They both have 1276 01:00:57,040 --> 01:00:59,040 Speaker 3: a lot of talent. It's a one possession football game. 1277 01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:01,600 Speaker 2: Are you sold on A and M? 1278 01:01:02,280 --> 01:01:02,840 Speaker 1: No? 1279 01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:05,040 Speaker 2: No, because I'm not. I was just going to say, 1280 01:01:05,080 --> 01:01:07,480 Speaker 2: like I look at him, I go all right like that. 1281 01:01:07,640 --> 01:01:09,400 Speaker 2: You know we liked him against the all Burn because 1282 01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:12,400 Speaker 2: we talked about it on the show. I mean, all right, 1283 01:01:12,440 --> 01:01:15,280 Speaker 2: they beat Arkansas last week. I mean it's still a 1284 01:01:15,280 --> 01:01:16,760 Speaker 2: team that got rolled by Miami. 1285 01:01:17,960 --> 01:01:20,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, And look, I'm not sitting here. I know that. 1286 01:01:20,440 --> 01:01:23,000 Speaker 3: You know, Max Johnson is somebody that is getting a 1287 01:01:23,040 --> 01:01:25,720 Speaker 3: lot of praise right now. He's okay, you know, But 1288 01:01:25,720 --> 01:01:27,840 Speaker 3: but here's the biggest thing for me, and I'll die 1289 01:01:27,880 --> 01:01:30,160 Speaker 3: on this. So all day long, Jimbo Fisher is paid 1290 01:01:30,200 --> 01:01:32,800 Speaker 3: to be the head football coach, not the head football recruiter, 1291 01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:34,960 Speaker 3: and at some point the talent that A and M 1292 01:01:35,040 --> 01:01:38,160 Speaker 3: has has to actually even out to the talent that 1293 01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:40,680 Speaker 3: they show on the football and it feels like on 1294 01:01:40,720 --> 01:01:42,880 Speaker 3: the football field, and year in and year out, it 1295 01:01:42,920 --> 01:01:45,680 Speaker 3: feels to me like A and M is a talented 1296 01:01:45,720 --> 01:01:48,040 Speaker 3: team that underperforms on the field. And this year, when 1297 01:01:48,080 --> 01:01:50,480 Speaker 3: I watch him, it just feels like a pretty good 1298 01:01:50,480 --> 01:01:52,880 Speaker 3: football team. But there's too many five stars on that 1299 01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:55,200 Speaker 3: team to be a pretty good football team. There's too 1300 01:01:55,240 --> 01:01:58,400 Speaker 3: much star power, there's too many dollars on that coaching staff. 1301 01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:01,880 Speaker 3: Like I think mediacrate is a disappointment for A and M. 1302 01:02:01,920 --> 01:02:04,560 Speaker 3: Particularly like they are if you're just if you were 1303 01:02:04,560 --> 01:02:06,600 Speaker 3: playing the video game version of them, they should be 1304 01:02:06,640 --> 01:02:09,480 Speaker 3: much better than they are. So I'm not really buying, 1305 01:02:09,600 --> 01:02:12,000 Speaker 3: you know, Like I said, a defense that's having a 1306 01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:15,160 Speaker 3: hard time generating turnovers and an offense that you know, 1307 01:02:15,200 --> 01:02:16,200 Speaker 3: we can say is balanced. 1308 01:02:16,200 --> 01:02:18,680 Speaker 1: But I still don't buy into their quarterback long term. 1309 01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:22,360 Speaker 2: Yeah I don't either. I look, I'm I look at 1310 01:02:22,360 --> 01:02:25,920 Speaker 2: this game. I just I look at this. To me, 1311 01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:31,919 Speaker 2: is too short figure Bama. I look at A and M, 1312 01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:34,200 Speaker 2: and I match them up along the fronts and it 1313 01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:36,919 Speaker 2: comes out Bama every time to. 1314 01:02:36,880 --> 01:02:37,640 Speaker 4: A certain degree. 1315 01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:39,920 Speaker 5: But Bamas not necessarily played up front the way that 1316 01:02:39,960 --> 01:02:42,640 Speaker 5: we typically see them, and to fits a point, you 1317 01:02:42,680 --> 01:02:44,440 Speaker 5: know they do have Texas A and M has a 1318 01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:47,440 Speaker 5: bunch of star recruits, a lot of talent, So you 1319 01:02:47,480 --> 01:02:49,760 Speaker 5: know what the line is, what two on this I 1320 01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:51,959 Speaker 5: can this is honestly for me to pick them based 1321 01:02:51,960 --> 01:02:54,200 Speaker 5: on how both teams have played this season. You mentioned 1322 01:02:54,240 --> 01:02:56,720 Speaker 5: Max Johnson has played wells and stepping in as a 1323 01:02:56,720 --> 01:02:59,600 Speaker 5: starting quarterback for them, So I really can see this 1324 01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:01,120 Speaker 5: game going out of the way and I would not 1325 01:03:01,160 --> 01:03:02,960 Speaker 5: be surprised if Texas A and M one at all. 1326 01:03:03,720 --> 01:03:06,080 Speaker 3: By the way, Texas A and M has fourteen sacks 1327 01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:08,560 Speaker 3: in the last two games, which everybody's making a huge 1328 01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:11,520 Speaker 3: deal about, but I mean Auburn and Arkansas in those 1329 01:03:11,520 --> 01:03:13,919 Speaker 3: two games. I know their SEC opponents, so nobody feels 1330 01:03:13,960 --> 01:03:16,120 Speaker 3: like you can say anything bad about an SEC opponent. 1331 01:03:16,520 --> 01:03:19,040 Speaker 3: Both of those offensive lines played like hot garbage in 1332 01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:21,560 Speaker 3: that game. So yeah, find out that one in that's 1333 01:03:21,600 --> 01:03:22,280 Speaker 3: A and M. 1334 01:03:22,680 --> 01:03:23,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. 1335 01:03:23,360 --> 01:03:25,480 Speaker 4: I will say losing to Miami. I do think Miami 1336 01:03:25,560 --> 01:03:27,320 Speaker 4: is a pretty good scene this year too, so I 1337 01:03:27,360 --> 01:03:29,800 Speaker 4: don't know if that's a terrible loss. 1338 01:03:30,240 --> 01:03:30,840 Speaker 1: I agree with you. 1339 01:03:30,920 --> 01:03:32,479 Speaker 4: They lost badly for sure. 1340 01:03:32,800 --> 01:03:35,080 Speaker 2: At the game, they weren't Banrass today. 1341 01:03:35,200 --> 01:03:37,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, but I think that's yeah, I think that's more 1342 01:03:37,440 --> 01:03:39,640 Speaker 5: of an indictment or I should say a credit to Miami. 1343 01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:42,840 Speaker 5: I think Miami's really turned a corner, especially offensively this year. 1344 01:03:42,960 --> 01:03:45,240 Speaker 2: So yeah, I've read at Collins. Actually I agree with you. 1345 01:03:45,880 --> 01:03:47,439 Speaker 2: Figured it's some trending. 1346 01:03:47,280 --> 01:03:47,600 Speaker 1: All right. 1347 01:03:47,640 --> 01:03:50,000 Speaker 5: Well, well Star some college football matchup from Friday night 1348 01:03:50,080 --> 01:03:51,320 Speaker 5: had a couple of them on the slate in the 1349 01:03:51,320 --> 01:03:55,280 Speaker 5: Big Ten, Nebraska defeating Illinois twenty to seven despite committing 1350 01:03:55,320 --> 01:03:58,640 Speaker 5: ten penalties for seventy yards and committing three turnovers. 1351 01:03:58,840 --> 01:04:00,600 Speaker 4: They improved at three and three on the season. 1352 01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:03,640 Speaker 5: Big Twelve Action Oklahoma State defeating Kansas State twenty nine 1353 01:04:03,640 --> 01:04:06,760 Speaker 5: to twenty one, Polks intercepting Wildcats quarterback. 1354 01:04:06,440 --> 01:04:08,480 Speaker 4: Will Howard three times on the night. 1355 01:04:08,720 --> 01:04:10,480 Speaker 5: As Couz mentioned a few minutes ago, the Big New 1356 01:04:10,600 --> 01:04:13,400 Speaker 5: kickoff game on Fox will feature fourth ranked Ohio State 1357 01:04:13,440 --> 01:04:16,560 Speaker 5: taking on five and zero Maryland.

George is a fourteen and a half 1382 01:05:26,920 --> 01:05:32,880 Speaker 2: point favorite against Kentucky, and Kentucky's had chances in the 1383 01:05:32,920 --> 01:05:36,440 Speaker 2: past to shock the world. This is a pretty good 1384 01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:41,360 Speaker 2: Kentucky team. Can this be the most coming off of 1385 01:05:41,400 --> 01:05:44,600 Speaker 2: the Florida win? Can this be the moment Fitsie that 1386 01:05:44,720 --> 01:05:46,760 Speaker 2: they scare Georgia? 1387 01:05:47,480 --> 01:05:50,720 Speaker 1: So God, I want it? And by the way, I 1388 01:05:50,840 --> 01:05:54,320 Speaker 1: rarely dole out nicknames, but uh, Ray Davis, the running 1389 01:05:54,360 --> 01:05:56,800 Speaker 1: back for Kentucky is now sweet baby Ray. That's uh. 1390 01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:05,280 Speaker 3: The Vandy transfer getting over there and going to a 1391 01:06:05,320 --> 01:06:09,800 Speaker 3: real football program and suddenly showing the wheels right two 1392 01:06:09,880 --> 01:06:12,360 Speaker 3: hundred and eighty yards was impressive. And I don't care 1393 01:06:12,400 --> 01:06:14,280 Speaker 3: who it's again, so I don't care what that situation is. 1394 01:06:14,280 --> 01:06:16,880 Speaker 3: Two hundred and eighty yards is impressive, especially when you 1395 01:06:16,920 --> 01:06:19,680 Speaker 3: factor it in with the fact that last week Auburn 1396 01:06:19,840 --> 01:06:22,520 Speaker 3: was able to run the football against Georgia's So I 1397 01:06:22,560 --> 01:06:25,560 Speaker 3: am a little concerned if I'm Georgia. As I said 1398 01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:28,240 Speaker 3: earlier in my rant about Texas being number one, If 1399 01:06:28,240 --> 01:06:31,560 Speaker 3: we're being realier, Georgia played one half of football in 1400 01:06:31,640 --> 01:06:34,479 Speaker 3: an SEC game, and then in another SEC game played 1401 01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:36,320 Speaker 3: about a quarter and a half of football, and that's 1402 01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:39,160 Speaker 3: enough for them to be undefeated, which is great, But 1403 01:06:39,240 --> 01:06:41,400 Speaker 3: that's not enough to justify being the number one team 1404 01:06:41,400 --> 01:06:43,840 Speaker 3: in the country. At some point, Georgia's got to look 1405 01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:46,040 Speaker 3: like the best team in the country, not just be 1406 01:06:46,200 --> 01:06:48,560 Speaker 3: Georgia the defending champion that we know has the right 1407 01:06:48,640 --> 01:06:50,600 Speaker 3: coaches and right recruits and we know they can put 1408 01:06:50,600 --> 01:06:51,040 Speaker 3: it together. 1409 01:06:51,160 --> 01:06:53,160 Speaker 1: They actually have to look like it this year. This 1410 01:06:53,240 --> 01:06:56,000 Speaker 1: game goes a long way towards that. My biggest problem 1411 01:06:56,000 --> 01:06:57,720 Speaker 1: with this game is it, let's be real. 1412 01:06:57,800 --> 01:07:01,240 Speaker 3: As great as sweet Baby Ray is running, the Leary, 1413 01:07:01,240 --> 01:07:04,320 Speaker 3: the quarterback for Kentucky is just like you can put 1414 01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:06,240 Speaker 3: all the sweet Baby Rays on bad chicken you want, 1415 01:07:06,280 --> 01:07:08,280 Speaker 3: and it's still not going to be good. Leary's been 1416 01:07:08,320 --> 01:07:10,400 Speaker 3: bad chicken so far. I think it's completion percent. It's 1417 01:07:10,440 --> 01:07:13,320 Speaker 3: just under fifty percent. Like this is dry to the bone, 1418 01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:17,120 Speaker 3: overcooked chicken. Got my guy's a liability back there trying 1419 01:07:17,160 --> 01:07:20,000 Speaker 3: to throw the football. So the problem is you can't 1420 01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:23,400 Speaker 3: be one dimensional and beat Georgia. But the one dimension 1421 01:07:23,440 --> 01:07:26,160 Speaker 3: they have man if Leary is hot, and then yeah, 1422 01:07:26,240 --> 01:07:28,240 Speaker 3: Kentucky can give him a game. If not, and I 1423 01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:30,640 Speaker 3: don't think he will be I think Georgia wins, but man, 1424 01:07:30,720 --> 01:07:32,720 Speaker 3: Kentucky is a better football program. Than we want to 1425 01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:35,040 Speaker 3: give him credit for. And Georgia is not playing as 1426 01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:36,240 Speaker 3: well as the credit they're getting. 1427 01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:40,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, my main south side chop. You can't wait for tennight, 1428 01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:44,800 Speaker 2: seven pm Eastern FIGI how about you, what do you think? 1429 01:07:44,920 --> 01:07:49,400 Speaker 2: Do you think that Kentucky can keep this thing close on. 1430 01:07:50,280 --> 01:07:52,280 Speaker 5: The way that George's played this year for all the 1431 01:07:52,280 --> 01:07:54,800 Speaker 5: reasons that fits he brought up and to their point 1432 01:07:54,800 --> 01:07:56,800 Speaker 5: about them, First of all, I'm surprised that Devin Leary 1433 01:07:56,840 --> 01:07:58,960 Speaker 5: has been this bad and they still and they've been 1434 01:07:58,960 --> 01:08:01,200 Speaker 5: able to weather this storm and still come into this 1435 01:08:01,280 --> 01:08:04,240 Speaker 5: matchup at five and zero. But you mentioned like a 1436 01:08:04,840 --> 01:08:07,760 Speaker 5: one dimensional team can't beat Georgia. Auburn was on the 1437 01:08:07,760 --> 01:08:10,040 Speaker 5: brink last week and they threw for eighty eight yards. 1438 01:08:10,080 --> 01:08:12,400 Speaker 5: I talked about going into last weekend's game, how all 1439 01:08:12,440 --> 01:08:15,040 Speaker 5: full of a quarterback situation that they have. I didn't 1440 01:08:15,040 --> 01:08:16,680 Speaker 5: think they were gonna run for over two hundred yards 1441 01:08:16,680 --> 01:08:19,160 Speaker 5: against the Georgia front. That Georgia front has not impressed 1442 01:08:19,160 --> 01:08:22,599 Speaker 5: me whatsoever this year on the defensive line. So knowing 1443 01:08:22,640 --> 01:08:24,880 Speaker 5: that Kentucky is one of the better rushing teams, Ray 1444 01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:27,759 Speaker 5: Davis had a great rushing game against the Florida defense 1445 01:08:27,800 --> 01:08:30,519 Speaker 5: that we thought was better upfront? I have what's the 1446 01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:32,559 Speaker 5: line is fourteen and a half on this At the 1447 01:08:32,760 --> 01:08:35,680 Speaker 5: very least Kentucky covers the spread would not surprise me 1448 01:08:35,680 --> 01:08:37,160 Speaker 5: at all if they end up getting a victory. 1449 01:08:37,360 --> 01:08:40,800 Speaker 3: Well, you make a really good point about Auburn being 1450 01:08:40,920 --> 01:08:43,960 Speaker 3: terrible throwing the football last week, and I am the 1451 01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:46,160 Speaker 3: first to jump up and down and admit, like my 1452 01:08:46,280 --> 01:08:49,759 Speaker 3: own Yeah, And when you said that, I thought, man, 1453 01:08:50,240 --> 01:08:55,000 Speaker 3: am I just managing my expectations because it's Kentucky, And 1454 01:08:55,080 --> 01:08:57,479 Speaker 3: I think I am to a certain degree. Like you 1455 01:08:57,920 --> 01:09:00,360 Speaker 3: you watch Auburn not throw the football and you're like, fine, 1456 01:09:00,360 --> 01:09:04,680 Speaker 3: they're allborn right, Like there's just there's institutional like generational 1457 01:09:04,760 --> 01:09:07,880 Speaker 3: whatever around Kentucky football that I just said is breaking through. 1458 01:09:08,120 --> 01:09:09,679 Speaker 3: And then I did the very thing I tell people 1459 01:09:09,680 --> 01:09:12,840 Speaker 3: not to do. You make a great point if they're 1460 01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:14,920 Speaker 3: able to run, if if that wasn't a one week 1461 01:09:14,960 --> 01:09:16,920 Speaker 3: aberration to run on the football that week, that way 1462 01:09:16,960 --> 01:09:19,280 Speaker 3: for Kentucky. And I don't believe it is man that 1463 01:09:19,439 --> 01:09:20,720 Speaker 3: this is gonna be a better game than a lot 1464 01:09:20,760 --> 01:09:21,559 Speaker 3: of people want it to be. 1465 01:09:22,760 --> 01:09:26,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, I said, I completely say it. I love Kentucky 1466 01:09:26,600 --> 01:09:29,479 Speaker 2: in this game. I think it's a scare piece all 1467 01:09:29,520 --> 01:09:34,360 Speaker 2: the way as we move further into the evening. In 1468 01:09:34,400 --> 01:09:37,720 Speaker 2: the evening games, this is pretty much of a one 1469 01:09:37,720 --> 01:09:40,200 Speaker 2: of these light weeks. When it comes to great matchups, 1470 01:09:40,280 --> 01:09:47,160 Speaker 2: I mean they're good. Notre Dame Louisville, Miami, not fing Georgia, 1471 01:09:47,200 --> 01:09:49,679 Speaker 2: tech USC's got Arizona. I mean, there's not a lot 1472 01:09:49,680 --> 01:09:54,120 Speaker 2: of great matchups. Michigan's got Minnesota, so it's kind of light. 1473 01:09:54,320 --> 01:09:58,479 Speaker 2: Kentucky Georgia is clearly the best game I think of 1474 01:09:58,520 --> 01:10:02,080 Speaker 2: the evening you have the Red River Rock early at noon, 1475 01:10:02,640 --> 01:10:07,080 Speaker 2: and then you have Kentucky Georgia FITZI and that's that's 1476 01:10:07,120 --> 01:10:11,760 Speaker 2: really the other game. The Notre Dame Louisville game is interesting, 1477 01:10:12,360 --> 01:10:15,040 Speaker 2: but I mean Notre Dame if I mean they got 1478 01:10:15,040 --> 01:10:15,599 Speaker 2: to win. 1479 01:10:16,439 --> 01:10:17,439 Speaker 1: They don't just have to win. 1480 01:10:17,520 --> 01:10:20,000 Speaker 3: I think Notre Dame has to win big, right like 1481 01:10:20,360 --> 01:10:22,439 Speaker 3: when you aren't in a conference, as we talk about 1482 01:10:22,439 --> 01:10:24,880 Speaker 3: every year for the college football Playoff, and you start 1483 01:10:24,880 --> 01:10:27,400 Speaker 3: thinking about what, like Louisville's having a better season than 1484 01:10:27,400 --> 01:10:30,519 Speaker 3: most people expected this year. So if you're Notre Dame, 1485 01:10:30,560 --> 01:10:33,000 Speaker 3: this is one of the rare times on the schedule 1486 01:10:33,000 --> 01:10:35,280 Speaker 3: where you can you can sort of pick up a 1487 01:10:35,360 --> 01:10:38,240 Speaker 3: landmark win against a team that you should be better than, 1488 01:10:38,280 --> 01:10:40,800 Speaker 3: you should be capable of beating. I don't know what 1489 01:10:40,960 --> 01:10:42,960 Speaker 3: to take and you tell me what you think. But 1490 01:10:43,040 --> 01:10:46,519 Speaker 3: like you guys know already in our month working together, 1491 01:10:46,800 --> 01:10:49,280 Speaker 3: I have been just straight up like the fan club 1492 01:10:49,320 --> 01:10:51,759 Speaker 3: of Sam Hartman has been. I feel like I'm the president. 1493 01:10:51,800 --> 01:10:54,080 Speaker 3: I got the street team T shirts and everything. And 1494 01:10:54,120 --> 01:10:56,360 Speaker 3: there were moments against Duke where I looked at it 1495 01:10:56,400 --> 01:10:58,759 Speaker 3: and I was like, yeah, that's exactly see, that's Hartman, 1496 01:10:58,840 --> 01:11:02,400 Speaker 3: That's exactly what I expected. I still thought that coming 1497 01:11:02,439 --> 01:11:05,040 Speaker 3: off of Ohio State that Notre Dame would have a 1498 01:11:05,080 --> 01:11:07,280 Speaker 3: more dominant performance against Duke, Like they beat a good 1499 01:11:07,280 --> 01:11:09,479 Speaker 3: football team, but they didn't go out and beat a 1500 01:11:09,479 --> 01:11:10,280 Speaker 3: good football team. 1501 01:11:10,400 --> 01:11:14,639 Speaker 2: But that game was on the road, I mean, yeah, 1502 01:11:14,760 --> 01:11:19,360 Speaker 2: game day there. I thought that was a situation. I 1503 01:11:19,400 --> 01:11:23,400 Speaker 2: thought the situation made it really difficult Notre Dame coming 1504 01:11:23,479 --> 01:11:26,439 Speaker 2: off the loss at Ohio State the week before, in 1505 01:11:26,479 --> 01:11:28,800 Speaker 2: the matter which they should have won. I thought it 1506 01:11:28,840 --> 01:11:31,240 Speaker 2: was a tough spot. I thought I was actually impressed. 1507 01:11:31,479 --> 01:11:32,320 Speaker 2: How about you faked? 1508 01:11:32,360 --> 01:11:34,200 Speaker 5: I mean, there's something to be said for if you're 1509 01:11:34,240 --> 01:11:36,680 Speaker 5: a person who thinks Notre Dame is taking that next 1510 01:11:36,720 --> 01:11:39,840 Speaker 5: step and is a legit national championship contender. You know, 1511 01:11:39,960 --> 01:11:42,280 Speaker 5: you're able to weather through that and be able to 1512 01:11:42,600 --> 01:11:45,160 Speaker 5: beat Duke, not necessarily convincingly, and run them off their 1513 01:11:45,200 --> 01:11:47,360 Speaker 5: home field, but not have to rely on a fourth 1514 01:11:47,400 --> 01:11:49,640 Speaker 5: and sixteen scramble from Sam Hartman to beat them. Like, 1515 01:11:49,680 --> 01:11:50,479 Speaker 5: does that make sense? 1516 01:11:50,880 --> 01:11:51,120 Speaker 1: Yeah? 1517 01:11:51,160 --> 01:11:54,680 Speaker 5: If Notre Dame has the expectations that you feel they 1518 01:11:54,720 --> 01:11:57,000 Speaker 5: should and they should be a playoff team, you would 1519 01:11:57,040 --> 01:11:59,040 Speaker 5: think they go in and win more convincingly. One thing 1520 01:11:59,080 --> 01:12:01,679 Speaker 5: I'd say about this match of Louisville, I think talent 1521 01:12:01,720 --> 01:12:04,559 Speaker 5: for talent up and down the roster is really not 1522 01:12:04,720 --> 01:12:07,519 Speaker 5: that big of a gap except at the quarterback position, 1523 01:12:07,960 --> 01:12:10,120 Speaker 5: and I think that's what the difference is. But otherwise, 1524 01:12:10,360 --> 01:12:12,800 Speaker 5: you know, Louisville I think is a very solid team, 1525 01:12:13,439 --> 01:12:15,920 Speaker 5: but their quarterback is just really inconsistent, and that's a 1526 01:12:16,000 --> 01:12:17,640 Speaker 5: plumber is really going to hold them back. He did 1527 01:12:17,720 --> 01:12:19,920 Speaker 5: last week against NC State. They just happened to get 1528 01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:21,599 Speaker 5: a victory because the defense played well. 1529 01:12:21,960 --> 01:12:26,720 Speaker 2: But yeah, I'm thirteen ten in that game and their defense. 1530 01:12:26,360 --> 01:12:28,240 Speaker 5: Played better than I thought they would have to be honest, 1531 01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:30,880 Speaker 5: Louisville has had this very solid year, but the quarterback 1532 01:12:30,920 --> 01:12:33,080 Speaker 5: is what's ultimately going to end up derailing their season 1533 01:12:33,120 --> 01:12:33,920 Speaker 5: because he's. 1534 01:12:33,760 --> 01:12:34,559 Speaker 4: Just not good enough. 1535 01:12:34,920 --> 01:12:39,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's fair to mentioned though, they really haven't played anybody. 1536 01:12:39,040 --> 01:12:43,719 Speaker 2: I mean, you squeak past Georgia Tech in the opener, 1537 01:12:43,840 --> 01:12:48,040 Speaker 2: then you beat Murray State, you win at Indiana, and 1538 01:12:48,080 --> 01:12:51,599 Speaker 2: then you beat Boston College, and then last week's squeaked 1539 01:12:51,600 --> 01:12:55,880 Speaker 2: by the NC State. So you know, I mean, I 1540 01:12:56,000 --> 01:12:57,599 Speaker 2: temper my enthusiasm a little bit. 1541 01:12:58,560 --> 01:13:00,639 Speaker 3: I feel like that's, by the way something and we'll talk, 1542 01:13:00,720 --> 01:13:02,439 Speaker 3: you know, we'll talk to the big brain about this later. 1543 01:13:02,800 --> 01:13:04,800 Speaker 3: Like I'm trying to figure out how we're supposed to 1544 01:13:04,840 --> 01:13:06,439 Speaker 3: make much out of heads or tails out of most 1545 01:13:06,439 --> 01:13:09,120 Speaker 3: of college football right now, because to your point, most 1546 01:13:09,120 --> 01:13:12,120 Speaker 3: teams haven't really played anybody. So I'm sitting here and like, oh, 1547 01:13:12,160 --> 01:13:14,320 Speaker 3: I could look at the analytics all day, the numbers, 1548 01:13:14,560 --> 01:13:16,559 Speaker 3: and if a computer wants to crunch it, that's fine, 1549 01:13:16,800 --> 01:13:19,639 Speaker 3: But those analytics are wildly different depending on who's played 1550 01:13:19,640 --> 01:13:22,479 Speaker 3: who and if anybody's actually played to anybody. Like, it's 1551 01:13:22,520 --> 01:13:25,040 Speaker 3: been a really entertaining college football season. But I'm gonna 1552 01:13:25,040 --> 01:13:26,639 Speaker 3: say the same thing today I said a week ago. 1553 01:13:26,800 --> 01:13:28,720 Speaker 3: I still don't think we really know who's good. I 1554 01:13:28,720 --> 01:13:30,360 Speaker 3: still don't think we know who the top four teams 1555 01:13:30,360 --> 01:13:32,240 Speaker 3: in the country are. Like, I still don't know that 1556 01:13:32,320 --> 01:13:34,559 Speaker 3: we know who the dominant team in college football is 1557 01:13:34,640 --> 01:13:36,479 Speaker 3: because nobody's really played anybody yet. 1558 01:13:36,520 --> 01:13:40,360 Speaker 2: Agreed. Agreed, We'll get into that next hour with real 1559 01:13:40,439 --> 01:13:41,160 Speaker 2: or fugazy. 1560 01:13:41,680 --> 01:13:42,000 Speaker 1: Mmm. 1561 01:13:42,439 --> 01:13:47,799 Speaker 2: We'll be doing that, all right. Sit tight, fellas hanging 1562 01:13:48,400 --> 01:13:56,960 Speaker 2: on a Fox Football Saturday. Fellas from the tire Raq 1563 01:13:57,479 --> 01:14:04,439 Speaker 2: dot Com studio. I gotta tell you, I am fitsy. 1564 01:14:04,520 --> 01:14:08,080 Speaker 2: I cannot wait for baseball. I really am looking forward 1565 01:14:08,120 --> 01:14:12,600 Speaker 2: tore Like. These series are really interesting. I mean, you know, 1566 01:14:12,720 --> 01:14:17,240 Speaker 2: Baltimore Texas is a great series. It's gonna be there. 1567 01:14:17,280 --> 01:14:21,640 Speaker 2: I mean, it's great matchups, the two really good lineups 1568 01:14:21,680 --> 01:14:25,559 Speaker 2: that could just pound the baseball, you know, I mean, 1569 01:14:25,800 --> 01:14:29,160 Speaker 2: And it's funny because Baltimore's well, yeah, obviously they won 1570 01:14:29,160 --> 01:14:32,640 Speaker 2: one hundred and one games and they're a favorite. I 1571 01:14:32,680 --> 01:14:35,120 Speaker 2: think Texas is live if I'm gonna look at it 1572 01:14:35,120 --> 01:14:39,280 Speaker 2: from a betting standpoint, Texas is live, man, trust me 1573 01:14:39,320 --> 01:14:39,679 Speaker 2: on that. 1574 01:14:40,280 --> 01:14:40,519 Speaker 1: Well. 1575 01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:42,280 Speaker 3: And I can't talk out of both sides of my 1576 01:14:42,320 --> 01:14:44,320 Speaker 3: mouth when it comes to proof of concept, right, like, 1577 01:14:44,400 --> 01:14:47,479 Speaker 3: we have no idea what this Baltimore team is gonna 1578 01:14:47,479 --> 01:14:50,639 Speaker 3: look like in this situation because they haven't been there 1579 01:14:50,680 --> 01:14:53,320 Speaker 3: and it's a relatively young team, right, So I think 1580 01:14:53,320 --> 01:14:56,200 Speaker 3: there is this moment of just you've got one team 1581 01:14:56,240 --> 01:14:58,639 Speaker 3: that feels like they're the new kid on the block 1582 01:14:58,680 --> 01:15:02,320 Speaker 3: and it all fun and fancy and amazing to watch 1583 01:15:02,360 --> 01:15:05,120 Speaker 3: and really a kick in the pants with youth and 1584 01:15:05,240 --> 01:15:08,000 Speaker 3: stardom versus the Texas team that I think, you know, 1585 01:15:08,320 --> 01:15:10,599 Speaker 3: you have a little bit more comfortableness when you're talking 1586 01:15:10,640 --> 01:15:14,519 Speaker 3: about postseason. So to your point, it's it's interesting because 1587 01:15:14,520 --> 01:15:18,439 Speaker 3: I can make I think a dozen arguments that favor Texas. 1588 01:15:18,840 --> 01:15:21,280 Speaker 3: The better story to me is Baltimore winning. Like it 1589 01:15:21,439 --> 01:15:24,600 Speaker 3: just it feels like such a disaster to have the 1590 01:15:24,600 --> 01:15:27,559 Speaker 3: wheels fall off now. But the other side of it 1591 01:15:27,640 --> 01:15:29,599 Speaker 3: that I think is interesting. And I'll go back even 1592 01:15:29,840 --> 01:15:31,960 Speaker 3: when baseball season first started and at the time and 1593 01:15:32,000 --> 01:15:33,920 Speaker 3: I'm still at ESPN, right, and I remember talking to 1594 01:15:33,960 --> 01:15:36,280 Speaker 3: Jeff Passon, It's like, when is the wheels fo When 1595 01:15:36,280 --> 01:15:37,439 Speaker 3: will the wheels fall off? 1596 01:15:37,880 --> 01:15:39,000 Speaker 1: Of the orioles? 1597 01:15:39,120 --> 01:15:42,080 Speaker 3: Like I feel like we've been asking that question about 1598 01:15:42,120 --> 01:15:44,519 Speaker 3: every month, thinking, Okay, now, at some point this is 1599 01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:46,800 Speaker 3: going to normalize, like it's gonna They're gonna fall back 1600 01:15:46,840 --> 01:15:48,920 Speaker 3: to the crew. It's not gonna be this And every 1601 01:15:49,000 --> 01:15:51,040 Speaker 3: time they've done it, like there just seems to be 1602 01:15:51,240 --> 01:15:55,120 Speaker 3: a blind, youthful exuberance to what Baltimore is doing this year. 1603 01:15:55,160 --> 01:15:56,479 Speaker 3: That is hard for me to bet against that. And 1604 01:15:56,800 --> 01:15:58,479 Speaker 3: I'm all in on the Orioles in this series. 1605 01:16:00,160 --> 01:16:04,920 Speaker 5: Fig I'm kind of in on the Orioles, mostly because 1606 01:16:04,960 --> 01:16:07,559 Speaker 5: i just can't trust the Texas bullpen. It's been one 1607 01:16:07,600 --> 01:16:09,439 Speaker 5: of the worst in the second half of the season 1608 01:16:09,560 --> 01:16:12,640 Speaker 5: and it's really difficult to really make hay in the 1609 01:16:12,640 --> 01:16:15,040 Speaker 5: playoffs if you don't have a bullpen that you can trust. 1610 01:16:15,920 --> 01:16:17,920 Speaker 1: Think about this for a second, though, all because you 1611 01:16:18,000 --> 01:16:21,760 Speaker 1: guys are such the baseball like you guys are inside it. 1612 01:16:21,880 --> 01:16:25,240 Speaker 3: Think about our conversations this morning and how many teams 1613 01:16:25,520 --> 01:16:28,599 Speaker 3: you've made a question about when it comes to the bullpen, 1614 01:16:28,960 --> 01:16:32,720 Speaker 3: Like we are sitting here at Playoff Baseball, and what 1615 01:16:32,800 --> 01:16:35,679 Speaker 3: I'm hearing from you guys and I'm internalizing is questions 1616 01:16:35,680 --> 01:16:38,160 Speaker 3: about pitching, questions about the bullpen, question about pitching, questions 1617 01:16:38,200 --> 01:16:40,679 Speaker 3: about the bullpen across the board, Like it just makes 1618 01:16:40,680 --> 01:16:42,240 Speaker 3: me wonder if this year is going to be the 1619 01:16:42,280 --> 01:16:44,400 Speaker 3: exception to the rule because it feels like there's a 1620 01:16:44,400 --> 01:16:46,200 Speaker 3: fatal flaw to several of these staffs. 1621 01:16:48,520 --> 01:16:51,559 Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean listen, I think if you have a 1622 01:16:51,680 --> 01:16:55,280 Speaker 2: really good bullpen, it's a weapon, like it really can be. 1623 01:16:55,920 --> 01:16:59,600 Speaker 2: And teams have have rowed that. Yeah, you know, they've 1624 01:16:59,720 --> 01:17:00,519 Speaker 2: rode that thing. 1625 01:17:00,720 --> 01:17:02,479 Speaker 5: Think of those Kansas City teams that made it a 1626 01:17:02,520 --> 01:17:04,799 Speaker 5: back to back world sataries. I mean they their starters 1627 01:17:04,800 --> 01:17:07,360 Speaker 5: were nothing special, but their bullpen you get to the 1628 01:17:07,360 --> 01:17:08,760 Speaker 5: fifth inning there were lights out. 1629 01:17:10,439 --> 01:17:13,880 Speaker 2: You know. We in Philly in eight when the Phillies win, 1630 01:17:14,800 --> 01:17:18,280 Speaker 2: they had you know, Jamie Moyer as their number two 1631 01:17:18,560 --> 01:17:19,920 Speaker 2: and he was forty five. 1632 01:17:19,760 --> 01:17:21,439 Speaker 4: Years old throwing twelve miles an hour. 1633 01:17:21,760 --> 01:17:24,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was all about It's the truth. It was 1634 01:17:24,960 --> 01:17:28,519 Speaker 2: just all about their bullpen that you know, six seven, 1635 01:17:28,600 --> 01:17:30,599 Speaker 2: eight nine. Man, if you got if you got those 1636 01:17:30,680 --> 01:17:34,840 Speaker 2: roles figured out, it's why It's why I still say 1637 01:17:34,880 --> 01:17:38,919 Speaker 2: it Land is vulnerable. I say the Braves are vulnerable, 1638 01:17:39,280 --> 01:17:42,160 Speaker 2: Like they better win today because they have a huge 1639 01:17:42,200 --> 01:17:47,320 Speaker 2: advantage with Strider against Suarez showed no slip ups thick 1640 01:17:47,320 --> 01:17:50,280 Speaker 2: because if they lose today, series over because then you 1641 01:17:50,360 --> 01:17:51,840 Speaker 2: got Wheeler going Game two. 1642 01:17:53,840 --> 01:17:57,000 Speaker 1: I'll go back to though, like my I guess my 1643 01:17:57,040 --> 01:17:59,759 Speaker 1: bigger takeaway for more conversations this morning. 1644 01:18:00,439 --> 01:18:03,760 Speaker 3: We had a large debate earlier today about the Brave 1645 01:18:03,800 --> 01:18:06,559 Speaker 3: staff versus the Philly staff, and a large debate on 1646 01:18:06,640 --> 01:18:08,880 Speaker 3: the Dodgers and whether or not they have the staff 1647 01:18:08,880 --> 01:18:12,479 Speaker 3: that is necessary. And then you look at at the 1648 01:18:11,840 --> 01:18:15,120 Speaker 3: you know, the reliever situation. It's not good enough for 1649 01:18:15,160 --> 01:18:17,760 Speaker 3: the Orioles. It's concerned, you know, for the Rangers. Like 1650 01:18:17,800 --> 01:18:21,320 Speaker 3: you can go up and down and find a question 1651 01:18:21,439 --> 01:18:24,160 Speaker 3: mark about the pitching staff for several of these teams, 1652 01:18:24,479 --> 01:18:26,600 Speaker 3: which doesn't feel normal when we get into this. I 1653 01:18:26,600 --> 01:18:28,840 Speaker 3: feel like usually when we get into playoff baseball, to 1654 01:18:28,880 --> 01:18:30,880 Speaker 3: your point, it's a hey, this staff is right, this 1655 01:18:30,920 --> 01:18:33,160 Speaker 3: staff is right. And it feels like in this conversation 1656 01:18:33,200 --> 01:18:34,960 Speaker 3: this morning, it's been a lot about what's wrong with 1657 01:18:34,960 --> 01:18:36,120 Speaker 3: several of the pitching staffs. 1658 01:18:37,800 --> 01:18:43,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I listen. I think I think that's the 1659 01:18:43,320 --> 01:18:47,839 Speaker 2: one flaw, certainly with Atlanta and the Dodgers starting staff. 1660 01:18:47,840 --> 01:18:50,920 Speaker 5: Fig right, I think the Dodgers' pen is probably of 1661 01:18:51,000 --> 01:18:52,960 Speaker 5: all the teams the best. The problem is it's just 1662 01:18:53,000 --> 01:18:54,800 Speaker 5: going to be over text because they need to use it. 1663 01:18:54,840 --> 01:18:56,160 Speaker 5: More because they have no starters. 1664 01:18:56,880 --> 01:18:59,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I like the Dodgers pen. I like the Phillies pan. 1665 01:18:59,200 --> 01:19:00,000 Speaker 4: To Philly pit is good. 1666 01:19:00,200 --> 01:19:03,599 Speaker 5: Yes, I'm not saying that Phillies pen is terrible except 1667 01:19:03,600 --> 01:19:05,080 Speaker 5: for except for the closer. 1668 01:19:06,240 --> 01:19:07,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, but the beautiful beauty he's. 1669 01:19:07,720 --> 01:19:11,080 Speaker 2: Not even like you know, listen, they'll use him to 1670 01:19:11,120 --> 01:19:13,760 Speaker 2: close games, but they don't use him every time. And 1671 01:19:13,960 --> 01:19:15,479 Speaker 2: I don't think he's as bad as you do. But 1672 01:19:15,520 --> 01:19:17,880 Speaker 2: I love their lot. I think they have great live 1673 01:19:18,040 --> 01:19:19,519 Speaker 2: arms in that pen. 1674 01:19:19,479 --> 01:19:21,080 Speaker 5: Which is what you need, by the way, to make 1675 01:19:21,120 --> 01:19:22,920 Speaker 5: it through the postseason, for sure. So they have that 1676 01:19:23,040 --> 01:19:26,679 Speaker 5: working on their favorites. Alvarado's nasty uh huh. Yeah, Hey, Sarah, 1677 01:19:26,680 --> 01:19:30,040 Speaker 5: Anthony this kid.

Two bad teams going at it right, But 1698 01:20:47,280 --> 01:20:52,680 Speaker 2: yet this is why the NFL is unbelievable. Because I 1699 01:20:53,240 --> 01:20:55,960 Speaker 2: wasn't going to miss the game. I had a thing 1700 01:20:56,000 --> 01:20:58,200 Speaker 2: I had to go to, and I made sure I 1701 01:20:58,280 --> 01:21:01,400 Speaker 2: was back by you know whoever. It was close to nine. 1702 01:21:01,400 --> 01:21:03,400 Speaker 2: I got in on the like in the middle of 1703 01:21:03,439 --> 01:21:06,479 Speaker 2: the end of the first quarter and then watched it 1704 01:21:06,800 --> 01:21:10,880 Speaker 2: like it's two bad teams, Yet I'm drawn to the 1705 01:21:11,439 --> 01:21:16,200 Speaker 2: I'm drawn to this thing right like a fly, like 1706 01:21:16,280 --> 01:21:19,080 Speaker 2: to light. Like I couldn't wait to come back and 1707 01:21:19,120 --> 01:21:20,519 Speaker 2: watch that trash game. 1708 01:21:21,760 --> 01:21:25,280 Speaker 3: That's the most interesting part of what they've built. And 1709 01:21:25,320 --> 01:21:27,240 Speaker 3: it's something that you know, we get out. Like one 1710 01:21:27,280 --> 01:21:29,519 Speaker 3: of my shows, I host overt Yeah, who's a fantasy 1711 01:21:29,560 --> 01:21:30,080 Speaker 3: football show? 1712 01:21:30,160 --> 01:21:31,000 Speaker 1: Right before kickoff? 1713 01:21:31,360 --> 01:21:34,000 Speaker 3: And I said, is that we started our show? I said, 1714 01:21:34,040 --> 01:21:36,759 Speaker 3: you know what, Like at some point fantasy football and gambling, 1715 01:21:37,040 --> 01:21:38,840 Speaker 3: the NFL owes the tip of the cap to both 1716 01:21:38,880 --> 01:21:41,080 Speaker 3: of them because so many people still have skin in 1717 01:21:41,080 --> 01:21:44,320 Speaker 3: the game on a terrible football game that you're watching 1718 01:21:44,360 --> 01:21:48,000 Speaker 3: it eagerly, and with a terrible football game between two 1719 01:21:48,000 --> 01:21:50,880 Speaker 3: teams that frankly, you know, nobody's sitting in the middle 1720 01:21:50,880 --> 01:21:53,000 Speaker 3: of Montana should really give a damn about one way 1721 01:21:53,040 --> 01:21:55,400 Speaker 3: or the other. Why do they care? Because people have 1722 01:21:55,479 --> 01:21:57,680 Speaker 3: money on it, and because everybody was looking at their 1723 01:21:57,720 --> 01:22:00,679 Speaker 3: fantasy football lineups to figure out if they were playing 1724 01:22:00,720 --> 01:22:04,400 Speaker 3: against or accidentally benched DJ Moore right, Like, so you 1725 01:22:04,439 --> 01:22:07,400 Speaker 3: can become a cultural phenomenon even when the game isn't good. 1726 01:22:07,479 --> 01:22:10,160 Speaker 3: And we live in a world where, frankly, you know, 1727 01:22:10,200 --> 01:22:12,480 Speaker 3: I know this is a hurtful thing to say, especially 1728 01:22:12,520 --> 01:22:14,280 Speaker 3: giving your heart and where it is today, but like 1729 01:22:14,560 --> 01:22:16,559 Speaker 3: we live in a world where a bad Thursday night 1730 01:22:16,560 --> 01:22:19,080 Speaker 3: football game buried on Amazon, where you can't get away 1731 01:22:19,120 --> 01:22:19,360 Speaker 3: from it. 1732 01:22:19,400 --> 01:22:21,640 Speaker 1: If it's bad, you can't just flip the channel. That 1733 01:22:21,840 --> 01:22:24,920 Speaker 1: bad football game buried on Amazon will get more eyeballs 1734 01:22:24,960 --> 01:22:28,040 Speaker 1: than most Major League Baseball playoff moments, right, Like, it's 1735 01:22:28,080 --> 01:22:29,479 Speaker 1: just it's what they've built. 1736 01:22:29,479 --> 01:22:32,800 Speaker 3: They've built a cultural phenomenon that has all of us 1737 01:22:32,840 --> 01:22:35,760 Speaker 3: gravitating to every single game, no matter who it is, 1738 01:22:35,800 --> 01:22:38,400 Speaker 3: no matter how bad it is. Because frankly, in July, 1739 01:22:38,600 --> 01:22:40,800 Speaker 3: we'll all be sitting here saying, right now, I would 1740 01:22:40,920 --> 01:22:47,800 Speaker 3: kill just to watch a bad Bears Commanders. 1741 01:22:47,800 --> 01:22:51,360 Speaker 2: Like I don't even realize. I go, I had that 1742 01:22:51,439 --> 01:22:53,920 Speaker 2: one of these moments, how of you do this? Right? 1743 01:22:53,960 --> 01:22:57,200 Speaker 2: But like I have these conversations with myself, right, I 1744 01:22:57,280 --> 01:23:03,599 Speaker 2: usually am you know, ripping myself right, chastising ripping myself, 1745 01:23:03,840 --> 01:23:07,280 Speaker 2: And I go, dude, what do you care? Like why 1746 01:23:07,320 --> 01:23:10,280 Speaker 2: are you? Like? What are you doing? Like, look at yourself? 1747 01:23:10,960 --> 01:23:16,080 Speaker 2: You couldn't wait to turn on Bears freaking Commanders, And 1748 01:23:16,400 --> 01:23:19,960 Speaker 2: it's amazing. Like I think I even was texting a 1749 01:23:20,000 --> 01:23:22,120 Speaker 2: buddy of mine, was like, hey, you know, it was 1750 01:23:22,160 --> 01:23:23,720 Speaker 2: who you like and all the other stuff, but we 1751 01:23:23,720 --> 01:23:27,200 Speaker 2: were actually talking about the game. My buddy Boo Boo 1752 01:23:27,280 --> 01:23:29,479 Speaker 2: was like, he was like, what do you think, Like 1753 01:23:29,640 --> 01:23:32,120 Speaker 2: we're with this game like it like it actually matters. 1754 01:23:32,280 --> 01:23:33,200 Speaker 1: These are two bad. 1755 01:23:33,080 --> 01:23:37,640 Speaker 2: Teams, yet we're and it's beyond just you know, let 1756 01:23:37,720 --> 01:23:40,240 Speaker 2: me throw fifty bucks in the game, or let me 1757 01:23:40,280 --> 01:23:43,719 Speaker 2: see what justin fields is my DFS quarterback or captain 1758 01:23:43,800 --> 01:23:47,080 Speaker 2: or whatever. It's still it's just I don't know what's 1759 01:23:47,080 --> 01:23:52,800 Speaker 2: the NFL Like, the NFL has this amazing grip on us, 1760 01:23:53,439 --> 01:23:55,760 Speaker 2: and you're right, fantasy and gambling or I have a 1761 01:23:55,800 --> 01:23:59,360 Speaker 2: big piece of it, but it even transcends that. 1762 01:24:00,479 --> 01:24:04,320 Speaker 3: And the funny part about it is because the look 1763 01:24:04,360 --> 01:24:06,559 Speaker 3: in the mirror that you just mentioned is something that 1764 01:24:07,080 --> 01:24:10,280 Speaker 3: I find myself. There two defining moments every year in 1765 01:24:10,360 --> 01:24:14,040 Speaker 3: my football fandom that I feel exactly what you felt. 1766 01:24:14,320 --> 01:24:17,439 Speaker 3: One is the inevitable Sunday when I realize that all 1767 01:24:17,479 --> 01:24:19,559 Speaker 3: hope has gone for the Raiders and that I have 1768 01:24:19,600 --> 01:24:21,800 Speaker 3: put myself back in this situation where I'm sitting on 1769 01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:24,519 Speaker 3: the couch watching a helpless football team and my heart 1770 01:24:24,600 --> 01:24:26,200 Speaker 3: is being ripped out like that. 1771 01:24:26,400 --> 01:24:27,200 Speaker 1: Every year I have. 1772 01:24:27,160 --> 01:24:29,439 Speaker 3: The realization of like I just wish I wasn't this 1773 01:24:29,479 --> 01:24:31,840 Speaker 3: big of a fan. Happens every year. Of course, next 1774 01:24:31,920 --> 01:24:33,400 Speaker 3: year I'll be sitting on the couch saying the same 1775 01:24:33,400 --> 01:24:36,160 Speaker 3: exact thing at some point in the season. So that's inevitable. 1776 01:24:36,160 --> 01:24:39,160 Speaker 3: But there is for me inevitably, and it's usually sometime 1777 01:24:39,160 --> 01:24:42,559 Speaker 3: in November where I'm sitting there watching a game between 1778 01:24:42,600 --> 01:24:44,680 Speaker 3: two teams that are terrible, when I look around and 1779 01:24:44,760 --> 01:24:46,439 Speaker 3: I'm like, man, there are so many things I should 1780 01:24:46,520 --> 01:24:49,439 Speaker 3: be doing right now, and I am sucked in to 1781 01:24:49,720 --> 01:24:54,040 Speaker 3: this game. It's a weird part of what's been created 1782 01:24:54,080 --> 01:24:57,120 Speaker 3: out of a sport that everybody loves. 1783 01:24:57,280 --> 01:24:58,439 Speaker 1: It's the reason I do what I do. 1784 01:24:58,520 --> 01:25:01,519 Speaker 3: My love of the NFL is the reason I wanted 1785 01:25:01,560 --> 01:25:05,599 Speaker 3: to get into this business. But you know, arguably it's live. 1786 01:25:05,800 --> 01:25:08,080 Speaker 3: It might be the worst of the four major sports. 1787 01:25:08,360 --> 01:25:10,400 Speaker 3: You know, on TV, we have to have red Zone 1788 01:25:10,439 --> 01:25:12,880 Speaker 3: to keep us engaged half the time because everybody's so 1789 01:25:12,960 --> 01:25:15,320 Speaker 3: add with all of it. Like, and it's still the 1790 01:25:15,400 --> 01:25:19,000 Speaker 3: thing that people flock to, myself included, every single Sunday. 1791 01:25:19,000 --> 01:25:21,679 Speaker 3: It's not just about the game and Thursday now and Monday. 1792 01:25:21,920 --> 01:25:24,000 Speaker 3: It's about the tradition that comes around it. It's about 1793 01:25:24,040 --> 01:25:27,040 Speaker 3: the feeling around it. It's it's around the nostalgia around 1794 01:25:27,080 --> 01:25:29,000 Speaker 3: it everything that you feel when you hear like that 1795 01:25:29,120 --> 01:25:31,639 Speaker 3: song that reminds you of where you went, were where 1796 01:25:31,680 --> 01:25:34,920 Speaker 3: you were, like life moments. That's what football has created 1797 01:25:34,960 --> 01:25:36,760 Speaker 3: for so many of us, and when it becomes that 1798 01:25:37,080 --> 01:25:39,040 Speaker 3: it's larger than the sport. It's part of a culture. 1799 01:25:39,080 --> 01:25:39,880 Speaker 3: It's part of life. 1800 01:25:40,240 --> 01:25:44,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is. It is like did you find now 1801 01:25:44,080 --> 01:25:46,880 Speaker 2: you you're again? We talk about you know, Fairrisday, You've 1802 01:25:46,880 --> 01:25:49,559 Speaker 2: always hated Thursday and football. I love it because it's 1803 01:25:49,600 --> 01:25:52,799 Speaker 2: just more football. But you know, you're right about the quality. 1804 01:25:52,840 --> 01:25:56,120 Speaker 2: And I just remember thinking, oh my god, Whychton in Chicago, 1805 01:25:56,240 --> 01:25:59,400 Speaker 2: Like why am I like so into it? Like were 1806 01:25:59,439 --> 01:26:00,840 Speaker 2: you on to it too? 1807 01:26:01,040 --> 01:26:04,559 Speaker 1: No? But I love you. 1808 01:26:04,560 --> 01:26:08,160 Speaker 2: You're You're like you're the I'm the wide eyed optimist 1809 01:26:08,160 --> 01:26:12,200 Speaker 2: and you're the citecal uh you know, abrasive young guy. 1810 01:26:12,320 --> 01:26:13,040 Speaker 2: It's amazing. 1811 01:26:13,200 --> 01:26:15,240 Speaker 5: So and the part of the problem is I'm a 1812 01:26:15,240 --> 01:26:16,880 Speaker 5: bit of a ringer when it comes to this. I 1813 01:26:17,080 --> 01:26:19,320 Speaker 5: because of the NFL plus and I've business the second 1814 01:26:19,360 --> 01:26:20,759 Speaker 5: time on the show I've mentioned it. I'm not getting 1815 01:26:20,760 --> 01:26:23,960 Speaker 5: paid for this, I swear, But I can commit thirty 1816 01:26:24,000 --> 01:26:26,439 Speaker 5: four minutes to watching the replay later that night or 1817 01:26:26,479 --> 01:26:28,960 Speaker 5: the next morning as opposed to committing three hours to 1818 01:26:28,960 --> 01:26:31,080 Speaker 5: sit there and watch bad football. And that's the choice 1819 01:26:31,120 --> 01:26:32,760 Speaker 5: I choose to make, honestly, when it comes to the 1820 01:26:32,760 --> 01:26:36,479 Speaker 5: Thursday night schedule, I will scout out. So I had 1821 01:26:36,520 --> 01:26:38,920 Speaker 5: plans this week with my family. We're determined at what 1822 01:26:39,000 --> 01:26:40,760 Speaker 5: night we're going to do stuff. And Thursday came up 1823 01:26:40,800 --> 01:26:43,759 Speaker 5: and I was like, let's see who's on the duck. Oh, Bears, Washington. 1824 01:26:44,120 --> 01:26:46,720 Speaker 5: I can skip that, but I am intrigued by Justin 1825 01:26:46,720 --> 01:26:48,320 Speaker 5: Fields and how he looks, and you know how it 1826 01:26:48,360 --> 01:26:49,880 Speaker 5: would go. So I'll go back and watch and see 1827 01:26:49,880 --> 01:26:51,320 Speaker 5: how the game played out afterwards. 1828 01:26:51,720 --> 01:26:52,439 Speaker 4: But I don't. 1829 01:26:52,600 --> 01:26:54,120 Speaker 5: I don't need to set up my couch for three 1830 01:26:54,120 --> 01:26:56,800 Speaker 5: and a half hours to watch the Bears and Commanders live. 1831 01:26:56,960 --> 01:26:57,360 Speaker 4: I don't. 1832 01:26:57,640 --> 01:26:59,200 Speaker 1: So can I give you a hot take care? 1833 01:26:59,280 --> 01:26:59,880 Speaker 2: For sure? 1834 01:27:00,479 --> 01:27:03,400 Speaker 3: Look, I think it's because it's the beginning of the week, 1835 01:27:03,680 --> 01:27:05,799 Speaker 3: Like Thursday feels like now we made it to Thursday 1836 01:27:05,840 --> 01:27:08,080 Speaker 3: night football, which means we're basically to Friday, which means 1837 01:27:08,080 --> 01:27:10,960 Speaker 3: we're basically to the weekend. I am more likely to 1838 01:27:11,040 --> 01:27:15,120 Speaker 3: sit through a terrible, three hour Thursday night game than 1839 01:27:15,160 --> 01:27:17,200 Speaker 3: I am to sit through a Monday night football game. 1840 01:27:17,200 --> 01:27:19,760 Speaker 3: I don't really care about because by Monday night, I've 1841 01:27:19,760 --> 01:27:23,759 Speaker 3: gone through days of content creation and days of watching 1842 01:27:23,880 --> 01:27:26,680 Speaker 3: and days of work and days of enjoyment. Like by 1843 01:27:26,720 --> 01:27:28,840 Speaker 3: Monday night, it's like, man, this game better be good 1844 01:27:28,920 --> 01:27:31,040 Speaker 3: or it's not. I'll watch a bad Thursday night football 1845 01:27:31,040 --> 01:27:33,559 Speaker 3: game before I'll watch a middle of the ground, middle 1846 01:27:33,560 --> 01:27:34,400 Speaker 3: of the pack Monday night. 1847 01:27:34,439 --> 01:27:37,040 Speaker 5: For that's so interesting because I'm the exact opposite, because 1848 01:27:37,080 --> 01:27:38,719 Speaker 5: Monday night is like, all right, this is the kapper, 1849 01:27:38,920 --> 01:27:41,320 Speaker 5: even if it is a couple of bad teams, average teams, 1850 01:27:41,720 --> 01:27:43,879 Speaker 5: like this is it. This is the last quality football 1851 01:27:43,920 --> 01:27:45,719 Speaker 5: for the week and for another couple of days until 1852 01:27:45,720 --> 01:27:47,000 Speaker 5: the weekend turns itself over. 1853 01:27:47,320 --> 01:27:49,759 Speaker 4: So I'm the exact opposite of that. It's interesting. 1854 01:27:50,520 --> 01:27:52,519 Speaker 2: I'm the opposite of both the I watch every game, of. 1855 01:27:52,560 --> 01:27:53,000 Speaker 1: Course you do. 1856 01:27:54,880 --> 01:27:57,640 Speaker 3: And by the way, NFL plus really is like, I know, 1857 01:27:57,640 --> 01:27:59,559 Speaker 3: we don't get paid for this, no freebason, you should 1858 01:27:59,560 --> 01:28:02,679 Speaker 3: start paying for it. But I will say if nobody's 1859 01:28:02,720 --> 01:28:04,879 Speaker 3: ever checked it out, the ability to watch a contensed 1860 01:28:04,920 --> 01:28:07,240 Speaker 3: football game. One thing I get asked all the time 1861 01:28:07,280 --> 01:28:09,160 Speaker 3: by people that want to break into the business is 1862 01:28:09,160 --> 01:28:11,880 Speaker 3: how do you watch enough to know what you're talking 1863 01:28:11,880 --> 01:28:14,240 Speaker 3: about and my answer to that as always, NFL Plus 1864 01:28:14,400 --> 01:28:17,679 Speaker 3: is a godsend because you literally can watch every game 1865 01:28:18,000 --> 01:28:19,960 Speaker 3: every week if you car out the time, and it 1866 01:28:20,000 --> 01:28:21,479 Speaker 3: doesn't take that much time to do it. 1867 01:28:21,479 --> 01:28:22,200 Speaker 4: It really doesn't. 1868 01:28:22,320 --> 01:28:26,360 Speaker 5: The longest broadcast might be forty minutes tops for a replay. 1869 01:28:26,560 --> 01:28:27,200 Speaker 4: It's amazing. 1870 01:28:28,960 --> 01:28:32,720 Speaker 2: No, it's the truth, man, it really is. But I 1871 01:28:32,800 --> 01:28:36,720 Speaker 2: tell you one thing though, Sunday Night's going to be amazing. 1872 01:28:37,960 --> 01:28:43,600 Speaker 2: Oh God should be right, I mean, Geese jallous San Francisco, 1873 01:28:43,960 --> 01:28:45,760 Speaker 2: I mean, it's going to be incredible. 1874 01:28:46,400 --> 01:28:48,360 Speaker 5: Are you guys buying into the Some people are saying 1875 01:28:48,439 --> 01:28:50,080 Speaker 5: this is a must win for Dallas and I was like, 1876 01:28:50,200 --> 01:28:53,639 Speaker 5: unless you're one in three, I really believe that must 1877 01:28:53,680 --> 01:28:55,920 Speaker 5: win in week five. I think it'd be a statement 1878 01:28:55,960 --> 01:28:58,200 Speaker 5: win for them because, you know, getting the monkey off 1879 01:28:58,200 --> 01:29:00,240 Speaker 5: their back. San Francisco's kind of been the thorn their 1880 01:29:00,280 --> 01:29:02,320 Speaker 5: side these last few years and going to be a 1881 01:29:02,320 --> 01:29:05,559 Speaker 5: big victory and confidence boost for them. But the must 1882 01:29:05,560 --> 01:29:07,320 Speaker 5: win stuff seems pretty ridiculous to me. 1883 01:29:07,920 --> 01:29:11,559 Speaker 3: I'll actually go the opposite way when it comes to statement. 1884 01:29:11,600 --> 01:29:13,320 Speaker 3: When I'm with you on must win, this is not 1885 01:29:13,360 --> 01:29:15,320 Speaker 3: a must win. I don't even think it's a statement 1886 01:29:15,360 --> 01:29:18,320 Speaker 3: opportunity for the Cowboys because the Cowboys will always be 1887 01:29:18,439 --> 01:29:20,720 Speaker 3: judged by what they do in January. So if they 1888 01:29:20,760 --> 01:29:24,040 Speaker 3: go out today or Sunday night and they win by sixty, 1889 01:29:24,360 --> 01:29:26,720 Speaker 3: but then they turn around and they lose in January, 1890 01:29:26,880 --> 01:29:29,479 Speaker 3: same old Cowboys. If they get beat by sixty here 1891 01:29:29,720 --> 01:29:32,320 Speaker 3: and they turn around and win in January, that changes 1892 01:29:32,320 --> 01:29:34,759 Speaker 3: the conversation. I think the Cowboys are in the most 1893 01:29:34,880 --> 01:29:37,799 Speaker 3: unenviable spot in all of sports, where they are damned 1894 01:29:37,880 --> 01:29:40,840 Speaker 3: no matter what they do, because great success right now 1895 01:29:40,840 --> 01:29:43,040 Speaker 3: will be greeted with it. Yeah, but let's wait and 1896 01:29:43,080 --> 01:29:45,800 Speaker 3: see what it looks like in the postseason, and tremendous 1897 01:29:45,880 --> 01:29:48,559 Speaker 3: failure right now will lead to oh man, these guys 1898 01:29:48,560 --> 01:29:51,000 Speaker 3: suck and everybody needs to get fired. Like they literally 1899 01:29:51,040 --> 01:29:54,360 Speaker 3: can't do anything to win the court of popular opinion. 1900 01:29:54,840 --> 01:29:59,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, except I think the bigger thing that 1901 01:29:59,160 --> 01:30:01,200 Speaker 2: you touch on that I'm all on board with is 1902 01:30:01,880 --> 01:30:06,479 Speaker 2: you can't get blown out if you're Dallas, Like, you 1903 01:30:06,520 --> 01:30:09,479 Speaker 2: can't because people still go they look at him and 1904 01:30:09,560 --> 01:30:12,120 Speaker 2: there's a bit of a side eye, like listen, New 1905 01:30:12,160 --> 01:30:16,640 Speaker 2: England was made for them, right, because that defense is 1906 01:30:16,760 --> 01:30:20,559 Speaker 2: just nasty. Right, They score two more touchdowns and you're 1907 01:30:20,600 --> 01:30:24,120 Speaker 2: able to just dominate that game. People still have that 1908 01:30:24,200 --> 01:30:27,040 Speaker 2: Arizona game in the back of their mind, going all right, 1909 01:30:27,080 --> 01:30:30,559 Speaker 2: well they're good, we get it, but how good are they? 1910 01:30:31,160 --> 01:30:35,320 Speaker 2: So if San Francisco drills them, then all of a sudden, 1911 01:30:35,600 --> 01:30:39,280 Speaker 2: none of these games forty to nothing, thirty to ten, thirty, 1912 01:30:39,280 --> 01:30:42,120 Speaker 2: eight to three, they don't mean anything because if San 1913 01:30:42,120 --> 01:30:46,760 Speaker 2: Francisco beats them, the Truism will become Arizona. 1914 01:30:46,960 --> 01:30:50,400 Speaker 3: It's the hardest part about all of that to me, 1915 01:30:50,479 --> 01:30:54,200 Speaker 3: because you're not wrong, But like, realistically, where do we 1916 01:30:54,240 --> 01:30:56,120 Speaker 3: expect the Cowboys to be right now? Like I think 1917 01:30:56,120 --> 01:30:58,320 Speaker 3: the Cowboys are going to be in a dogfight the 1918 01:30:58,320 --> 01:31:01,040 Speaker 3: rest of the year to be they're either one of 1919 01:31:01,080 --> 01:31:02,560 Speaker 3: the top wild cards or they're going to have a 1920 01:31:02,560 --> 01:31:04,880 Speaker 3: shot at their division, depending on what happens with Philly, 1921 01:31:05,280 --> 01:31:07,160 Speaker 3: who right now is finding ways to win even though 1922 01:31:07,200 --> 01:31:10,080 Speaker 3: we're all finding ways to doubt them. So let's you know, 1923 01:31:10,160 --> 01:31:12,360 Speaker 3: when you play this thing out and you look at 1924 01:31:12,360 --> 01:31:14,200 Speaker 3: what's gonna happen for the Cowboys over the course of 1925 01:31:14,240 --> 01:31:15,920 Speaker 3: the rest of the season. They've got a lot of 1926 01:31:15,920 --> 01:31:18,240 Speaker 3: fluff games ahead of them, and they've got some tough games. 1927 01:31:19,080 --> 01:31:21,759 Speaker 3: I don't think until we hit, you know, the NFC 1928 01:31:21,840 --> 01:31:24,280 Speaker 3: Championship game that they hope to be in, that any 1929 01:31:24,320 --> 01:31:26,680 Speaker 3: of it will change the way we view Dak. It 1930 01:31:26,720 --> 01:31:29,960 Speaker 3: won't change the way we view McCarthy. And you know, frankly, 1931 01:31:30,000 --> 01:31:32,639 Speaker 3: if the Cowboys don't win another or don't lose another 1932 01:31:32,680 --> 01:31:36,080 Speaker 3: game this season, the Cowboys finish fifteen sixteen and one 1933 01:31:36,439 --> 01:31:38,360 Speaker 3: and they go to the playoffs and they lose, people 1934 01:31:38,400 --> 01:31:40,960 Speaker 3: are going to be fired and calling fire McCarthy. If 1935 01:31:40,960 --> 01:31:43,400 Speaker 3: the Cowboys lose all the games for the rest of 1936 01:31:43,400 --> 01:31:45,879 Speaker 3: the year, they're going to be firing, calling to fire McCarthy. 1937 01:31:45,920 --> 01:31:48,080 Speaker 3: Either way, That's what I'm saying, is like, either way, 1938 01:31:48,080 --> 01:31:49,120 Speaker 3: the whole thing is probably here. 1939 01:31:49,400 --> 01:31:51,479 Speaker 2: I can't I can't do that. Though I can't go, 1940 01:31:52,080 --> 01:31:55,920 Speaker 2: I'm going to judge in January. I've never been. I've 1941 01:31:56,000 --> 01:31:58,040 Speaker 2: kind of I don't even like that. I hear you 1942 01:31:58,560 --> 01:32:02,160 Speaker 2: public opinion wise, but I look at them a little differently. 1943 01:32:02,200 --> 01:32:05,280 Speaker 2: I don't know how good Like I know that that 1944 01:32:05,400 --> 01:32:09,479 Speaker 2: defense is dominant, but I don't know how good they 1945 01:32:09,560 --> 01:32:13,880 Speaker 2: are as a team. And I think I'm I'm fascinated 1946 01:32:13,920 --> 01:32:16,720 Speaker 2: by this matchup. I'm so anxious to see, because I 1947 01:32:16,760 --> 01:32:21,080 Speaker 2: think I'll get a better read on who this Cowboys 1948 01:32:21,200 --> 01:32:24,400 Speaker 2: team is after they play San Francisco. 1949 01:32:24,520 --> 01:32:29,320 Speaker 5: Fick yeah, because go on, Fits, cause the big thing 1950 01:32:29,360 --> 01:32:31,320 Speaker 5: for Dallas is they beat up on the also Rams, 1951 01:32:31,360 --> 01:32:34,519 Speaker 5: but they struggle against quality teams. This will probably be 1952 01:32:34,600 --> 01:32:36,479 Speaker 5: the best team that they play this year, not named 1953 01:32:36,479 --> 01:32:38,639 Speaker 5: the Philadelphia Eagles, who they still have to see twice. 1954 01:32:39,040 --> 01:32:41,880 Speaker 5: If you beat San Francisco and split with Philadelphia, you 1955 01:32:42,040 --> 01:32:44,880 Speaker 5: win at Buffalo or something to end the season. 1956 01:32:45,439 --> 01:32:47,320 Speaker 4: I mean, that's pretty that's a statement. 1957 01:32:47,400 --> 01:32:48,720 Speaker 5: I mean, you beat up some of the some of 1958 01:32:48,760 --> 01:32:50,760 Speaker 5: the quality teams in the league, and that's something they 1959 01:32:50,760 --> 01:32:54,200 Speaker 5: haven't really done in this DAC tenure, and I think 1960 01:32:54,240 --> 01:32:56,400 Speaker 5: it would infuse it with a confidence. To your point, Fits, 1961 01:32:56,439 --> 01:32:58,920 Speaker 5: once you get into the postseason when everybody's zero and 1962 01:32:59,000 --> 01:33:02,120 Speaker 5: zero and the dictation changes and as championship or a bust. 1963 01:33:02,160 --> 01:33:02,519 Speaker 4: I get it. 1964 01:33:02,880 --> 01:33:05,040 Speaker 5: But I do think that's a big game from a 1965 01:33:05,080 --> 01:33:07,680 Speaker 5: public opinion standpoint, if they can go into San Francisco 1966 01:33:07,720 --> 01:33:09,599 Speaker 5: and beat them because they haven't been able to do it. 1967 01:33:09,920 --> 01:33:11,559 Speaker 5: If they can find a way to win their division 1968 01:33:11,560 --> 01:33:14,519 Speaker 5: and beat the Eagles, you know, I think and again, 1969 01:33:14,600 --> 01:33:17,040 Speaker 5: we win some of the more tougher matchups on their 1970 01:33:17,080 --> 01:33:19,080 Speaker 5: schedule this year. I do think it will go a 1971 01:33:19,080 --> 01:33:22,120 Speaker 5: long way from a public opinion standpoint going into the postseason. 1972 01:33:22,840 --> 01:33:24,600 Speaker 5: So I do think this is a big matchup for 1973 01:33:24,640 --> 01:33:25,600 Speaker 5: them from that standpoint. 1974 01:33:25,800 --> 01:33:28,000 Speaker 3: Look at their last six games to y'all, Like, they 1975 01:33:28,040 --> 01:33:31,000 Speaker 3: got the Seahawks, who you know, so far are playing 1976 01:33:31,040 --> 01:33:33,360 Speaker 3: better than some people expected. Then they have the Eagles 1977 01:33:33,400 --> 01:33:38,000 Speaker 3: at Buffalo, at Miami versus the Lions, and with the Commanders. 1978 01:33:38,000 --> 01:33:40,040 Speaker 1: So let's say the Commanders are an easy one in there. 1979 01:33:40,200 --> 01:33:40,760 Speaker 1: The rest of. 1980 01:33:40,720 --> 01:33:44,080 Speaker 3: That spot, the Eagles, Bills, Dolphins, Lions, those are all 1981 01:33:44,120 --> 01:33:46,400 Speaker 3: going to be teams in my thought right there that 1982 01:33:46,479 --> 01:33:48,800 Speaker 3: are competing to be the best in their conference respectively 1983 01:33:49,120 --> 01:33:51,599 Speaker 3: across the board. Lions maybe best in their division. Maybe 1984 01:33:51,600 --> 01:33:54,480 Speaker 3: they're not in the same caliber. But that's a gauntlet 1985 01:33:54,479 --> 01:33:56,280 Speaker 3: to end the season for the Cowboys. 1986 01:33:56,760 --> 01:33:59,680 Speaker 5: So if they say, go, what is that three and 1987 01:33:59,760 --> 01:34:02,360 Speaker 5: one in those games? I mean that that does nothing 1988 01:34:02,400 --> 01:34:04,720 Speaker 5: for your perception of them going into the postseason. 1989 01:34:04,840 --> 01:34:07,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I think it does. Yeah, one hundred percent. 1990 01:34:07,520 --> 01:34:07,920 Speaker 1: All of this. 1991 01:34:08,320 --> 01:34:10,559 Speaker 3: I'm just saying that that no matter what they do 1992 01:34:10,760 --> 01:34:14,959 Speaker 3: in this Sunday, it's we're not going to care in January, 1993 01:34:15,080 --> 01:34:17,200 Speaker 3: and you're both right that like maybe that's not the 1994 01:34:17,280 --> 01:34:20,360 Speaker 3: right way, but like for me, the proof of concept 1995 01:34:20,400 --> 01:34:23,439 Speaker 3: has been sort of put put the standard has been 1996 01:34:23,479 --> 01:34:26,280 Speaker 3: put out there so far in advance for the Cowboys 1997 01:34:26,280 --> 01:34:28,280 Speaker 3: that they're sort of in a no win situation. 1998 01:34:27,920 --> 01:34:29,679 Speaker 1: On the other side of this. That makes sense. 1999 01:34:29,760 --> 01:34:32,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I guess I need, like, I like, I 2000 01:34:32,680 --> 01:34:36,479 Speaker 2: need to see what they look against look like against 2001 01:34:36,800 --> 01:34:39,840 Speaker 2: San Francisco, Like I really do. I got it because 2002 01:34:40,120 --> 01:34:42,080 Speaker 2: I think their offense, like we know they have a 2003 01:34:42,080 --> 01:34:44,640 Speaker 2: good defense, right, Like, so the game gets out of 2004 01:34:44,640 --> 01:34:48,679 Speaker 2: hand last week because their defense is completely dominant. There's 2005 01:34:48,680 --> 01:34:52,280 Speaker 2: no pressure on the Cowboys offense. So in three of 2006 01:34:52,360 --> 01:34:56,240 Speaker 2: their four games it was their defense that just won 2007 01:34:56,280 --> 01:34:59,519 Speaker 2: the game and it got out of hand. So I'm 2008 01:34:59,560 --> 01:35:04,360 Speaker 2: curious see what the Dallas offense is against this Niners team, 2009 01:35:05,000 --> 01:35:09,639 Speaker 2: because if they struggle and San Francisco wins by double digits, 2010 01:35:09,920 --> 01:35:11,800 Speaker 2: that tells me a lot. That tells me to think 2011 01:35:12,080 --> 01:35:15,439 Speaker 2: we'll get into this coming up real fugazy. But if 2012 01:35:15,520 --> 01:35:20,519 Speaker 2: Dallas loses by double digits and their offense struggles, then 2013 01:35:20,520 --> 01:35:21,679 Speaker 2: they're a fugazee figgy. 2014 01:35:23,040 --> 01:35:24,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, so far, there's nothing to say that they can 2015 01:35:25,040 --> 01:35:28,040 Speaker 5: eventually turn it around. But again against the San Francisco team, 2016 01:35:28,080 --> 01:35:30,920 Speaker 5: who they've struggled against recently. I think even for their 2017 01:35:30,960 --> 01:35:33,679 Speaker 5: personal psyche going up against them, it would be huge 2018 01:35:33,720 --> 01:35:35,400 Speaker 5: if they can go in and get themselves a victory. 2019 01:35:35,439 --> 01:35:36,760 Speaker 4: So I'm right there with you. 2020 01:35:38,360 --> 01:35:42,920 Speaker 2: All right, FITZI your test. We're gonna do real fugazy 2021 01:35:44,560 --> 01:35:49,320 Speaker 2: as we go through it. What's real? What's a fugaze 2022 01:35:49,640 --> 01:35:54,639 Speaker 2: coming up next? Fellas? Fox Sports Radio, all right, welcome 2023 01:35:54,720 --> 01:36:01,680 Speaker 2: back here we are Fellas on a Fox Football Saturday. 2024 01:36:03,479 --> 01:36:07,840 Speaker 2: I'm excited, man, what a big day, big weekend. This 2025 01:36:07,960 --> 01:36:11,120 Speaker 2: is why October is the greatest? Is it the best? 2026 01:36:11,760 --> 01:36:14,599 Speaker 2: Is it October like the greatest month? 2027 01:36:14,640 --> 01:36:18,880 Speaker 3: Fitzieh not even close like October. When you combine the 2028 01:36:19,400 --> 01:36:21,760 Speaker 3: like a a and this isn't even a hot take. 2029 01:36:21,880 --> 01:36:25,519 Speaker 3: Fall is far better than summer weatherwise. So you combine 2030 01:36:25,960 --> 01:36:28,800 Speaker 3: the beautiful weather with the fact that we now have 2031 01:36:29,000 --> 01:36:33,120 Speaker 3: every everything kicking into gear, like even the NHL season 2032 01:36:33,160 --> 01:36:35,479 Speaker 3: comes back in about a week, right, so in the 2033 01:36:35,479 --> 01:36:37,439 Speaker 3: next few days, so all of a sudden, get we 2034 01:36:37,479 --> 01:36:40,759 Speaker 3: get everything coming back while baseball is at its peak, 2035 01:36:41,040 --> 01:36:43,720 Speaker 3: while we're getting more meaningful football that looks better. While 2036 01:36:43,760 --> 01:36:47,760 Speaker 3: we're getting rivalries across college football that are amazing to watch. 2037 01:36:48,040 --> 01:36:51,920 Speaker 3: This is October, October into November, by far chef's kiss. 2038 01:36:51,960 --> 01:36:54,280 Speaker 3: And then you combine the fact that you get Halloween, 2039 01:36:54,400 --> 01:36:56,920 Speaker 3: Thanksgiving and Christmas like. 2040 01:36:57,000 --> 01:37:01,200 Speaker 2: No, it's got hit peak. I got to slow down, 2041 01:37:01,240 --> 01:37:02,120 Speaker 2: figure slowed down. 2042 01:37:02,200 --> 01:37:05,519 Speaker 5: Man didn't even mention the start of the NBA season, 2043 01:37:05,560 --> 01:37:07,000 Speaker 5: by the way, which gets wedged in there too. 2044 01:37:07,200 --> 01:37:08,840 Speaker 4: So it's a lot going on all at once. 2045 01:37:09,120 --> 01:37:12,080 Speaker 3: Octobery eight season doesn't count, like we don't count NBA 2046 01:37:12,439 --> 01:37:13,240 Speaker 3: until Christmas Day. 2047 01:37:13,240 --> 01:37:14,439 Speaker 1: Don't tell me otherwise, you know. 2048 01:37:14,560 --> 01:37:16,320 Speaker 3: And this year it'll have to be the day after 2049 01:37:16,400 --> 01:37:18,360 Speaker 3: Christmas because there's still a NFL on Christmas Day. 2050 01:37:18,360 --> 01:37:19,360 Speaker 1: I don't know how that's gonna work. 2051 01:37:21,439 --> 01:37:25,280 Speaker 5: Oh my god, that's incredible.

Or for gayzey? All Right? 2060 01:37:52,360 --> 01:37:57,639 Speaker 2: That's right. Let's start off with a person, because you remember, 2061 01:37:58,280 --> 01:38:01,519 Speaker 2: a person, a thing, a play can all be real, 2062 01:38:01,640 --> 01:38:04,679 Speaker 2: and it can all be for gazy. And let's start 2063 01:38:04,840 --> 01:38:09,160 Speaker 2: off in San Francisco. And the quarterback who is not 2064 01:38:09,479 --> 01:38:17,280 Speaker 2: Dak Prescott but Brock Pardy. Is brock Purdy real or 2065 01:38:17,400 --> 01:38:19,120 Speaker 2: off U gayzy fincy? 2066 01:38:19,680 --> 01:38:21,760 Speaker 3: See, I am glad you brought this one up coming, 2067 01:38:21,800 --> 01:38:23,559 Speaker 3: says I got this on my chest. All right, let's 2068 01:38:23,600 --> 01:38:26,800 Speaker 3: just start acknowledging something. The yah butt on brock Purdy 2069 01:38:26,880 --> 01:38:30,559 Speaker 3: needs to stop because see, at some point you could say, well, 2070 01:38:30,600 --> 01:38:32,760 Speaker 3: what would you look like in another system. I don't 2071 01:38:32,800 --> 01:38:35,040 Speaker 3: give a damn what he would look like another If 2072 01:38:35,120 --> 01:38:37,200 Speaker 3: you didn't have this coach, I don't care he does. 2073 01:38:37,560 --> 01:38:39,000 Speaker 3: At some point you have to look at all of 2074 01:38:39,080 --> 01:38:42,360 Speaker 3: this like Voltron, Like no one robot in Voltron was 2075 01:38:42,400 --> 01:38:45,280 Speaker 3: gonna kick your butt, but all those robots together would 2076 01:38:45,320 --> 01:38:47,960 Speaker 3: stack into one massive butt kicking robot. Look it up, kids, 2077 01:38:48,000 --> 01:38:50,280 Speaker 3: It was a popular cartoon in the eighties. My point 2078 01:38:50,320 --> 01:38:53,360 Speaker 3: to this is, at some point these weapons, this coach, 2079 01:38:53,479 --> 01:38:56,719 Speaker 3: and this quarterback are linked together. And the real answer 2080 01:38:56,800 --> 01:39:00,400 Speaker 3: that we've gotten is clear. Brock Perdy is the answer 2081 01:39:00,479 --> 01:39:03,360 Speaker 3: for the forty nine ers. Brock Party is real. Brock 2082 01:39:03,439 --> 01:39:05,880 Speaker 3: Purty is going to be a very good quarterback for 2083 01:39:05,960 --> 01:39:08,320 Speaker 3: them for as long as they need him to be 2084 01:39:08,439 --> 01:39:11,280 Speaker 3: because he understands the system, he understands the coach, He 2085 01:39:11,439 --> 01:39:13,280 Speaker 3: understands how to make the most out of the offense. 2086 01:39:13,360 --> 01:39:16,439 Speaker 3: I am done qualifying who brock Purty is because it 2087 01:39:16,520 --> 01:39:18,599 Speaker 3: doesn't matter. He doesn't have to know what it would 2088 01:39:18,600 --> 01:39:20,560 Speaker 3: be like to play for Lafleur in Green Bay. He 2089 01:39:20,640 --> 01:39:22,160 Speaker 3: doesn't have to know what it would be like to 2090 01:39:22,200 --> 01:39:24,920 Speaker 3: play for McDaniels in Vegas. None of that matters. He 2091 01:39:25,040 --> 01:39:27,760 Speaker 3: gets to play with Kyle Shanahan in this offense. He 2092 01:39:27,840 --> 01:39:30,080 Speaker 3: will always have weapons around him, he will always have 2093 01:39:30,200 --> 01:39:31,920 Speaker 3: the right coach, and as long as he has that 2094 01:39:32,000 --> 01:39:34,519 Speaker 3: while he's developing too my god, I'm all in on this. 2095 01:39:34,560 --> 01:39:37,040 Speaker 3: Stop qualifying brock Party and just let him be real. 2096 01:39:37,360 --> 01:39:45,160 Speaker 14: Oh my god, s like mister Pardy oh figure real 2097 01:39:45,520 --> 01:39:47,559 Speaker 14: or for Gayzy brock Party. 2098 01:39:47,680 --> 01:39:49,559 Speaker 5: It's really hard for me to follow that up because 2099 01:39:49,560 --> 01:39:51,519 Speaker 5: you pretty much stole the words right out of my mouth. 2100 01:39:51,640 --> 01:39:54,280 Speaker 5: I mean, what more do you want the guy to do? 2101 01:39:54,400 --> 01:39:56,519 Speaker 5: When he's been healthy, He's been amazing. He hasn't lost 2102 01:39:56,600 --> 01:39:59,360 Speaker 5: a game. Yet, does he have the big sturdy features 2103 01:39:59,400 --> 01:40:01,640 Speaker 5: as he's six with two with a cannon of an arm. No, 2104 01:40:01,800 --> 01:40:04,960 Speaker 5: but he wins football games and ultimately that's all that matters. 2105 01:40:05,320 --> 01:40:07,800 Speaker 5: He's playing well in this You mentioned the system thinks 2106 01:40:07,880 --> 01:40:09,759 Speaker 5: that can to go Fitzie, you know how many systems 2107 01:40:09,800 --> 01:40:10,240 Speaker 5: did Joe. 2108 01:40:10,120 --> 01:40:13,200 Speaker 4: Montana play in one his entire career. I'm not saying 2109 01:40:13,280 --> 01:40:14,360 Speaker 4: brock Party is Joe Montana. 2110 01:40:14,640 --> 01:40:17,320 Speaker 5: When people label certain guys as system quarterbacks, you know 2111 01:40:17,600 --> 01:40:19,400 Speaker 5: you succeed in the system that you're in and if 2112 01:40:19,400 --> 01:40:21,800 Speaker 5: it's suited to your talents, take advantage of it. That's 2113 01:40:21,840 --> 01:40:24,519 Speaker 5: what Brock Party has done. So yes, I'm also tired 2114 01:40:24,520 --> 01:40:26,679 Speaker 5: of the brock Party hate. The guy has done nothing 2115 01:40:26,920 --> 01:40:29,240 Speaker 5: but when he's been productive and he's not just riding 2116 01:40:29,280 --> 01:40:31,400 Speaker 5: a gravy chain. This guy has five touchdowns doing reception, 2117 01:40:31,439 --> 01:40:33,200 Speaker 5: it's completing over seventy percent of his passes. 2118 01:40:33,560 --> 01:40:34,559 Speaker 4: He's carrying his weight. 2119 01:40:34,920 --> 01:40:38,000 Speaker 3: So, by the way, if any quarterback could win, then 2120 01:40:38,040 --> 01:40:39,840 Speaker 3: would they have lost in the playoffs without him? 2121 01:40:39,880 --> 01:40:42,600 Speaker 1: I'm just saying. I'm just saying I. 2122 01:40:42,680 --> 01:40:45,040 Speaker 5: Still think they would have lost to Philadelphia by that 2123 01:40:45,120 --> 01:40:46,759 Speaker 5: game absolutely would have been competitive. 2124 01:40:46,960 --> 01:40:47,200 Speaker 1: Couple. 2125 01:40:49,640 --> 01:40:51,559 Speaker 3: No, No, no, but I'm just saying, like, I'm just saying, 2126 01:40:51,600 --> 01:40:53,600 Speaker 3: we sit there and say, well, any quarterback could do this, 2127 01:40:53,760 --> 01:40:56,120 Speaker 3: well no, not any not any quarterback could do this, 2128 01:40:56,280 --> 01:40:58,280 Speaker 3: Like I don't. I mean, he's better than Jimmy G 2129 01:40:58,479 --> 01:41:01,280 Speaker 3: was in that system. And I'm not saying Jimmy G's. 2130 01:41:01,080 --> 01:41:01,559 Speaker 1: A life saver. 2131 01:41:01,680 --> 01:41:03,439 Speaker 3: My god, I have to watch him every Sunday, but 2132 01:41:03,600 --> 01:41:05,680 Speaker 3: he's better than Jimmy G was. So like, let's not 2133 01:41:05,760 --> 01:41:08,639 Speaker 3: turn this into any quarterback can do that, when fact 2134 01:41:08,800 --> 01:41:09,920 Speaker 3: is any quarterback can't. 2135 01:41:10,360 --> 01:41:11,320 Speaker 4: Trey Lanscher couldn't do it. 2136 01:41:13,120 --> 01:41:15,360 Speaker 1: Preach. Wow, you guys, I love it. 2137 01:41:15,479 --> 01:41:15,639 Speaker 14: Man. 2138 01:41:15,640 --> 01:41:18,320 Speaker 2: Any guys on the same thing, Dolf parody not Oh 2139 01:41:18,479 --> 01:41:22,320 Speaker 2: that's party alright, figg figgi. 2140 01:41:22,880 --> 01:41:25,360 Speaker 4: Before we move on, hit us with some training, all right, 2141 01:41:25,400 --> 01:41:29,320 Speaker 4: Well do some NFL Newspackers. Offensive tackle David Baktiari announced 2142 01:41:29,560 --> 01:41:31,599 Speaker 4: he's gonna have surgery on his left knee. 2143 01:41:31,600 --> 01:41:34,760 Speaker 5: He's gonna miss the remainder of the season. A tough 2144 01:41:34,800 --> 01:41:37,080 Speaker 5: sledding for their All Pro. It's his fifth surgery on 2145 01:41:37,240 --> 01:41:40,000 Speaker 5: that knee since twenty twenty, and some believe that his 2146 01:41:40,280 --> 01:41:43,280 Speaker 5: career could potentially be in jeopardy. So obviously thinking about 2147 01:41:43,360 --> 01:41:45,720 Speaker 5: him and his future. Speaking of Green Bay, they play 2148 01:41:45,760 --> 01:41:47,920 Speaker 5: the Raiders on Monday night in Las Vegas. Raiders will 2149 01:41:47,960 --> 01:41:51,600 Speaker 5: have their quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo back under center after he 2150 01:41:51,680 --> 01:41:54,960 Speaker 5: cleared concussion protocol. On Friday, forty nine, Ers did acquire 2151 01:41:54,960 --> 01:41:57,639 Speaker 5: defensive van Randy Gregory from Denver for a sixth round 2152 01:41:57,720 --> 01:42:00,200 Speaker 5: draft pick. Dolphins traded a sixth round pick to the 2153 01:42:00,280 --> 01:42:03,720 Speaker 5: Bears for receiver Chase Claypool and a seventh rounder.

Brian Dabel 2174 01:43:09,040 --> 01:43:12,320 Speaker 2: who was the architect of the Bills offense that was 2175 01:43:12,479 --> 01:43:15,360 Speaker 2: just so good. Who all make Josh Allen too, one 2176 01:43:15,360 --> 01:43:19,439 Speaker 2: of the elite quarterbacks in the league is presiding over 2177 01:43:19,560 --> 01:43:25,200 Speaker 2: a disaster in New York. Is Brian Dable real? Or 2178 01:43:25,400 --> 01:43:26,719 Speaker 2: for Gayzy Fitzy. 2179 01:43:27,280 --> 01:43:29,840 Speaker 1: Oh he's real. 2180 01:43:31,240 --> 01:43:34,120 Speaker 3: Uh, he's real, but we're asking a lot from him, 2181 01:43:34,160 --> 01:43:36,640 Speaker 3: if that makes sense. I'm still gonna go back to 2182 01:43:36,800 --> 01:43:39,519 Speaker 3: what it's gotten worse. Yeah, but but look at what 2183 01:43:39,720 --> 01:43:42,920 Speaker 3: and I know it's normalized now, but look at Josh Allen. Right, 2184 01:43:43,040 --> 01:43:46,439 Speaker 3: Like Josh Allen was a shell of who he was 2185 01:43:46,640 --> 01:43:48,920 Speaker 3: for part of last year and really didn't look like 2186 01:43:49,160 --> 01:43:52,080 Speaker 3: the decision making was back on par until we two 2187 01:43:52,320 --> 01:43:54,320 Speaker 3: of this year, right, like it started all normalized a 2188 01:43:54,360 --> 01:43:56,439 Speaker 3: little bit, but like Josh Allen took a step back 2189 01:43:56,560 --> 01:43:58,679 Speaker 3: not being around Brian Dable. That has to say something 2190 01:43:58,680 --> 01:44:00,960 Speaker 3: about Dable too, Like how much of this is about 2191 01:44:00,960 --> 01:44:02,759 Speaker 3: the fact that we all sort of knew that Daniel 2192 01:44:02,840 --> 01:44:05,679 Speaker 3: Jones wasn't that good to begin with and the Giants 2193 01:44:05,720 --> 01:44:08,280 Speaker 3: were going to have issues if Saquan wasn't healthy and 2194 01:44:08,439 --> 01:44:09,840 Speaker 3: Daniel Jones didn't play well. 2195 01:44:10,000 --> 01:44:14,040 Speaker 2: So like, I just think their line is atrocious. Like 2196 01:44:14,160 --> 01:44:17,479 Speaker 2: I listen Daniel Jones aside, and I'm surprised that he 2197 01:44:17,600 --> 01:44:20,160 Speaker 2: wanted to marry Daniel Jones, But the rest of that 2198 01:44:20,240 --> 01:44:25,040 Speaker 2: team is built horribly. Their defense sucks, Their own line 2199 01:44:25,200 --> 01:44:30,320 Speaker 2: is awful. I mean, I expected a lot more out 2200 01:44:30,400 --> 01:44:33,160 Speaker 2: a table, I'll be honest with you, especially since he's 2201 01:44:33,200 --> 01:44:34,639 Speaker 2: got fingerprints on personnel. 2202 01:44:35,439 --> 01:44:37,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's probably a fair point. 2203 01:44:37,360 --> 01:44:39,240 Speaker 3: Like that's where it gets dangerous when you do have 2204 01:44:39,320 --> 01:44:42,760 Speaker 3: fingerprints on personnel. The reality of it is, you know, 2205 01:44:43,080 --> 01:44:44,800 Speaker 3: I'll go back to one of my best friends as 2206 01:44:44,840 --> 01:44:47,400 Speaker 3: a Giants fan, and he had the highest expectations in 2207 01:44:47,439 --> 01:44:50,640 Speaker 3: the world last year. The problem is they overachieved and 2208 01:44:51,160 --> 01:44:53,519 Speaker 3: they weren't as good as their record looked and now 2209 01:44:53,520 --> 01:44:55,720 Speaker 3: all of a sudden, everybody expected the next leap. I 2210 01:44:55,720 --> 01:44:58,040 Speaker 3: don't think they were ready to take that, so I 2211 01:44:58,160 --> 01:45:00,559 Speaker 3: say real, But man, I do have a little bit hesitation. 2212 01:45:01,160 --> 01:45:05,000 Speaker 2: I do you make a good point, Figgie Brian Dable 2213 01:45:05,120 --> 01:45:06,200 Speaker 2: real or fugazy? 2214 01:45:06,400 --> 01:45:09,679 Speaker 5: Yeah, considering that he took a ginormous project and turned 2215 01:45:09,760 --> 01:45:11,839 Speaker 5: him into one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL 2216 01:45:11,960 --> 01:45:13,760 Speaker 5: over a couple of years, I think it's too soon 2217 01:45:13,880 --> 01:45:15,960 Speaker 5: for me to say that he's fugazy. Knowing that the 2218 01:45:16,040 --> 01:45:18,400 Speaker 5: Giants have just been pretty dysfunctioned over the last few years, 2219 01:45:18,439 --> 01:45:21,080 Speaker 5: regardless of who the coach has been, I agree with fits. 2220 01:45:21,360 --> 01:45:23,800 Speaker 5: Last year was an anomaly. They won games that they 2221 01:45:23,800 --> 01:45:26,280 Speaker 5: shouldn't have made it to the postseason, won a postseason game. 2222 01:45:26,960 --> 01:45:27,479 Speaker 4: He was working. 2223 01:45:27,600 --> 01:45:29,559 Speaker 5: He was working from behind the eight ball with Daniel Jones. 2224 01:45:29,560 --> 01:45:32,120 Speaker 5: To begin with, Yes, he has saying personnel, and maybe 2225 01:45:32,160 --> 01:45:35,000 Speaker 5: that's a mistake. Everybody's not a good coach and GM 2226 01:45:35,240 --> 01:45:37,599 Speaker 5: maybe he's just a good coach and shouldn't have saying personnel. 2227 01:45:37,920 --> 01:45:40,040 Speaker 5: That could be the misstep. I still have faith in 2228 01:45:40,120 --> 01:45:42,320 Speaker 5: him as a head coach. I just thought, maybe it 2229 01:45:42,360 --> 01:45:44,280 Speaker 5: doesn't work out with the New York Giants because it 2230 01:45:44,400 --> 01:45:46,920 Speaker 5: is a poorly built roster. I will say, when you 2231 01:45:47,040 --> 01:45:50,600 Speaker 5: have Saquon Barkley in the backfield, it is the deodorant 2232 01:45:50,680 --> 01:45:52,320 Speaker 5: for a lot of your funk for lack of a 2233 01:45:52,360 --> 01:45:55,160 Speaker 5: better term, and they don't have that, and that's showing 2234 01:45:55,200 --> 01:45:55,840 Speaker 5: itself this year. 2235 01:45:55,920 --> 01:45:58,240 Speaker 4: So I think that's part of it too, all. 2236 01:45:58,120 --> 01:46:00,840 Speaker 2: Right Now, I would never say that Bill Belichick is 2237 01:46:00,880 --> 01:46:05,360 Speaker 2: a for gaze. However, if I say this statement that 2238 01:46:06,160 --> 01:46:12,000 Speaker 2: Bill Belichick is cocked and that Bill Belichick has just 2239 01:46:12,520 --> 01:46:15,880 Speaker 2: is done as great as the career he is he's had, 2240 01:46:16,640 --> 01:46:21,080 Speaker 2: that it's over for Bill Belichick, is that statement real 2241 01:46:22,080 --> 01:46:23,680 Speaker 2: or a for gazy fitsy. 2242 01:46:24,479 --> 01:46:26,200 Speaker 1: Real, real, real and more real? 2243 01:46:26,479 --> 01:46:30,360 Speaker 3: And like, look, Bill Belichick the coach just can't seem 2244 01:46:30,439 --> 01:46:33,360 Speaker 3: to handle Bill Belichick the GM because look up and 2245 01:46:33,439 --> 01:46:37,000 Speaker 3: down the roster, it's just not as good as the 2246 01:46:37,120 --> 01:46:40,120 Speaker 3: rest of the division. Like I mean, frankly, I'm not 2247 01:46:40,200 --> 01:46:43,200 Speaker 3: sure they don't have even considering Zach Wilson, the fourth 2248 01:46:43,280 --> 01:46:46,160 Speaker 3: best quarterback in their own division, who was drafted by 2249 01:46:46,280 --> 01:46:48,280 Speaker 3: Bill Belichick, a move I didn't like at the time. 2250 01:46:48,320 --> 01:46:50,639 Speaker 3: I've never been in on Mac Jones, and I'm even 2251 01:46:50,720 --> 01:46:52,720 Speaker 3: more out on mac Jones. As we continue and you 2252 01:46:52,840 --> 01:46:55,320 Speaker 3: learn that like when you don't have that guy, everything 2253 01:46:55,439 --> 01:46:57,680 Speaker 3: is more difficult. But on top of that, last year, 2254 01:46:57,720 --> 01:47:00,600 Speaker 3: the conversation was, well, everybody took a step because the 2255 01:47:00,640 --> 01:47:04,240 Speaker 3: coordinators weren't good. The coordinators were hired by Bill Belichick. 2256 01:47:04,360 --> 01:47:06,519 Speaker 3: So like this concept of well, they don't have a 2257 01:47:06,560 --> 01:47:08,760 Speaker 3: lot of talent they're working with is his fault. The 2258 01:47:08,880 --> 01:47:11,040 Speaker 3: concept that, well, the coaching may not have been the 2259 01:47:11,120 --> 01:47:13,519 Speaker 3: best is his fault. And now they're sitting in a 2260 01:47:13,600 --> 01:47:17,360 Speaker 3: situation where clearly, at best, they're the third best team 2261 01:47:17,400 --> 01:47:20,240 Speaker 3: in their own division, at best with at best the 2262 01:47:20,320 --> 01:47:22,519 Speaker 3: third best quarterback, and there is no way to coach 2263 01:47:22,560 --> 01:47:24,640 Speaker 3: your way out of it. I think if the Patriots 2264 01:47:24,680 --> 01:47:26,720 Speaker 3: want to win more Super Bowls, I don't think Bill 2265 01:47:26,760 --> 01:47:28,639 Speaker 3: Belichick's the guy that's going to do that moving forward. 2266 01:47:28,680 --> 01:47:31,240 Speaker 3: I take nothing away from what he's accomplished. Two things 2267 01:47:31,280 --> 01:47:33,839 Speaker 3: can be universally true. You can be the single greatest 2268 01:47:33,880 --> 01:47:35,560 Speaker 3: coach of all time, and you can now be in 2269 01:47:35,640 --> 01:47:38,120 Speaker 3: a situation where you are not capable of winning a 2270 01:47:38,160 --> 01:47:38,599 Speaker 3: Super Bowl. 2271 01:47:38,640 --> 01:47:40,080 Speaker 1: And I think that's where the Patriots are. 2272 01:47:41,800 --> 01:47:46,760 Speaker 2: All right, Figgy, Bill Belichick cooked? Is that statement real? 2273 01:47:46,920 --> 01:47:48,080 Speaker 2: Or for Gaysy, It's. 2274 01:47:48,000 --> 01:47:52,320 Speaker 5: Real And FITZI, I had this conversation with Anthony maybe 2275 01:47:52,400 --> 01:47:54,840 Speaker 5: two years ago when he had us list the top 2276 01:47:54,960 --> 01:47:57,439 Speaker 5: quarterback to excuse me, the top head coaches in the NFL, 2277 01:47:57,479 --> 01:47:59,759 Speaker 5: and I have Bill Belichick, I think in the bottom 2278 01:47:59,800 --> 01:48:02,320 Speaker 5: tier year of the top five, and Anthony said I 2279 01:48:02,439 --> 01:48:04,280 Speaker 5: was insane, and I was like, I see the decline. 2280 01:48:04,640 --> 01:48:07,919 Speaker 5: The quality of the assistance is going down. The drafting 2281 01:48:08,040 --> 01:48:11,840 Speaker 5: has been terrible. It's all falling apart at this point 2282 01:48:11,840 --> 01:48:14,160 Speaker 5: in time, and you see, but not having Tom Brady 2283 01:48:14,240 --> 01:48:17,479 Speaker 5: to prop up some inadequacies on that offense over the 2284 01:48:17,560 --> 01:48:21,280 Speaker 5: last few years is really starting to show itself. To 2285 01:48:21,400 --> 01:48:24,080 Speaker 5: your point, Fitz, he's he was a great coach, still 2286 01:48:24,120 --> 01:48:26,000 Speaker 5: probably the best coach in the history of the sport, 2287 01:48:26,280 --> 01:48:28,560 Speaker 5: but as of right now, he's lost a step. And 2288 01:48:28,680 --> 01:48:30,400 Speaker 5: maybe it's one of those he needs to have something 2289 01:48:30,479 --> 01:48:32,479 Speaker 5: taken off of his plate. Maybe he doesn't need to 2290 01:48:32,520 --> 01:48:34,479 Speaker 5: be the president of football operations. It just needs to 2291 01:48:34,520 --> 01:48:37,320 Speaker 5: focus on coaching on the field. But the system they 2292 01:48:37,360 --> 01:48:39,479 Speaker 5: have in place right now is not working. So yeah, 2293 01:48:39,520 --> 01:48:42,400 Speaker 5: he's definitely taken a shot. He's down a tier. For me, 2294 01:48:43,439 --> 01:48:45,320 Speaker 5: you said that, I will back you up. On that 2295 01:48:45,479 --> 01:48:48,400 Speaker 5: statement that you said it, and it was a couple 2296 01:48:48,439 --> 01:48:52,600 Speaker 5: of years ago. All right, let's keep it going. The 2297 01:48:52,760 --> 01:48:58,840 Speaker 5: Bengals real well for Gayzy FITSI. 2298 01:49:00,000 --> 01:49:00,800 Speaker 1: They're for gay Zy. 2299 01:49:01,320 --> 01:49:04,240 Speaker 3: I can't believe I'm saying this, but man, the problem 2300 01:49:04,360 --> 01:49:07,519 Speaker 3: is they're they're throwing They're throwing good money at bad 2301 01:49:07,760 --> 01:49:09,600 Speaker 3: at this point. And what I mean by that is, 2302 01:49:10,160 --> 01:49:12,560 Speaker 3: you know, anybody that's ever sat, you know, at the 2303 01:49:12,720 --> 01:49:16,120 Speaker 3: tables in Vegas or any casino, you know that you 2304 01:49:16,280 --> 01:49:18,400 Speaker 3: just hit a losing streak, and suddenly you just keep 2305 01:49:18,600 --> 01:49:21,719 Speaker 3: doubling down and doubling down and doubling down. The minute 2306 01:49:21,760 --> 01:49:25,439 Speaker 3: they played and injured Joe Burrow, they started doubling down 2307 01:49:25,600 --> 01:49:27,960 Speaker 3: on the losing streak. And the problem is now they're 2308 01:49:27,960 --> 01:49:31,599 Speaker 3: pot committed where you can no longer afford. You can't 2309 01:49:31,600 --> 01:49:34,760 Speaker 3: sit him because your record is abysmal and you can't 2310 01:49:34,840 --> 01:49:37,680 Speaker 3: win games without him, but because you played him, your 2311 01:49:37,720 --> 01:49:38,559 Speaker 3: record's abysmal. 2312 01:49:38,680 --> 01:49:42,000 Speaker 1: So they've created the own situation they're in. He's not 2313 01:49:42,080 --> 01:49:42,759 Speaker 1: gonna get healthy. 2314 01:49:42,920 --> 01:49:44,519 Speaker 3: They haven't been able to change the play calling in 2315 01:49:44,560 --> 01:49:46,439 Speaker 3: a way that's really been able to move their offense 2316 01:49:46,479 --> 01:49:49,679 Speaker 3: at this point. I don't love where the offense looks, 2317 01:49:49,720 --> 01:49:51,880 Speaker 3: and I don't love the ability for Joe Burrow to 2318 01:49:51,920 --> 01:49:54,280 Speaker 3: get healthy while he's playing. If the Bengals want to 2319 01:49:54,320 --> 01:49:56,400 Speaker 3: be for real, they need to sit Burrow for four 2320 01:49:56,439 --> 01:49:58,360 Speaker 3: to six weeks. And if they're gonna do that, how 2321 01:49:58,400 --> 01:50:00,080 Speaker 3: many of those games are they gonna win? Can they 2322 01:50:00,120 --> 01:50:03,040 Speaker 3: dig themselves out? So the very hole they've created by 2323 01:50:03,200 --> 01:50:05,760 Speaker 3: not forcing him to sit is the hole that makes 2324 01:50:05,800 --> 01:50:06,440 Speaker 3: them fugazy. 2325 01:50:06,479 --> 01:50:12,960 Speaker 5: To me, I like it, Uh, figure the Bengals real fugazy, 2326 01:50:13,160 --> 01:50:16,360 Speaker 5: one hundred percent fugay zy for the same reasons that 2327 01:50:16,479 --> 01:50:18,479 Speaker 5: fits lined up. And by the way, you just gave 2328 01:50:18,520 --> 01:50:20,840 Speaker 5: this guy two hundred and seventy five million dollars, Why 2329 01:50:20,840 --> 01:50:22,760 Speaker 5: are you putting him at risk at this point in time? 2330 01:50:23,120 --> 01:50:25,960 Speaker 5: Take the hit early on, put them on injury reserve, 2331 01:50:26,000 --> 01:50:28,679 Speaker 5: and see if he can get healthy, because Heaven forbid 2332 01:50:28,800 --> 01:50:30,840 Speaker 5: you throw him out there this weekend against Arizona or 2333 01:50:30,840 --> 01:50:33,599 Speaker 5: it's the Seahawks next week and he gets injured even 2334 01:50:33,640 --> 01:50:35,880 Speaker 5: worse and he's out for the season, a guy that's 2335 01:50:35,920 --> 01:50:38,760 Speaker 5: already missed time with major injuries these last couple of years. 2336 01:50:39,080 --> 01:50:41,280 Speaker 5: Why is it worth the risk If I have to 2337 01:50:41,360 --> 01:50:44,400 Speaker 5: punt on twenty twenty three to save myself for the 2338 01:50:44,479 --> 01:50:45,160 Speaker 5: next eight years. 2339 01:50:45,360 --> 01:50:45,760 Speaker 1: You do it. 2340 01:50:46,080 --> 01:50:47,000 Speaker 4: It's smart business. 2341 01:50:47,320 --> 01:50:48,920 Speaker 5: I understand that you feel like you have a certain 2342 01:50:49,000 --> 01:50:51,559 Speaker 5: championship Wendell that's not gonna go anywhere you have him, 2343 01:50:51,840 --> 01:50:54,320 Speaker 5: you have Jamar Chase. I do think mixing his shot. 2344 01:50:54,360 --> 01:50:56,080 Speaker 5: They have to do something with that run game because 2345 01:50:56,120 --> 01:50:59,760 Speaker 5: that's not appropriate. I fell off of a cliff over 2346 01:51:00,240 --> 01:51:03,320 Speaker 5: what's you know? Like, God, this does happen with running backs. 2347 01:51:03,560 --> 01:51:06,920 Speaker 5: It definitely happens with telbacks. Definitely uickly with these I 2348 01:51:07,000 --> 01:51:09,559 Speaker 5: did neither. So it's really bad at this point in time, 2349 01:51:09,640 --> 01:51:11,840 Speaker 5: with really no way out. To be honest with you, 2350 01:51:11,960 --> 01:51:13,960 Speaker 5: I think if I were the Bengals, I'd sit Burrow 2351 01:51:14,000 --> 01:51:15,960 Speaker 5: for as long as I can. I'm not saying that 2352 01:51:16,040 --> 01:51:18,800 Speaker 5: they should tank, but if this calf is bothering them, 2353 01:51:18,840 --> 01:51:20,960 Speaker 5: you sit them down for four weeks. If it's still 2354 01:51:21,000 --> 01:51:22,519 Speaker 5: bothering them, you sit them out for the rest of 2355 01:51:22,520 --> 01:51:24,559 Speaker 5: the year. Punt on the season, and try to run 2356 01:51:24,600 --> 01:51:26,439 Speaker 5: this thing back in twenty twenty four when he's healthy. 2357 01:51:27,479 --> 01:51:33,920 Speaker 2: All right, Uh, this statement the most overrated bar food 2358 01:51:34,800 --> 01:51:41,800 Speaker 2: chicken wings, because I've had more bad chicken wings than 2359 01:51:41,920 --> 01:51:45,600 Speaker 2: good ones, real or fugazi FITSI. 2360 01:51:45,640 --> 01:51:49,200 Speaker 3: Okay, that's fugezy. You've lost your mind and look like 2361 01:51:49,280 --> 01:51:52,559 Speaker 3: I said, you can't. Connecticut's known for two things, pizza 2362 01:51:52,600 --> 01:51:56,360 Speaker 3: and wings. And there's a place up in Connecticut, Jay Timothy's. 2363 01:51:56,400 --> 01:51:59,400 Speaker 3: The food TV has named America's best wings multiple times. 2364 01:51:59,640 --> 01:52:01,599 Speaker 3: When I got up there and everybody's I gotta try 2365 01:52:01,640 --> 01:52:03,400 Speaker 3: the wings, I was like, hey, wings and wings.

The floor on wings 2377 01:52:38,760 --> 01:52:41,479 Speaker 3: not gonna be particularly bad, and the ceiling is gonna 2378 01:52:41,520 --> 01:52:42,559 Speaker 3: be particularly high. 2379 01:52:42,640 --> 01:52:44,000 Speaker 1: That's that's what you're looking for. 2380 01:52:44,200 --> 01:52:46,160 Speaker 2: Like I particularly, no, man, I think you can. I 2381 01:52:46,240 --> 01:52:48,360 Speaker 2: think you can make a bad win.

Like do we really 2469 01:57:29,200 --> 01:57:32,680 Speaker 3: believe that Kelsey is suddenly losing for this? This concept 2470 01:57:32,840 --> 01:57:35,360 Speaker 3: that football players will lose focus if they do anything 2471 01:57:35,400 --> 01:57:38,440 Speaker 3: outside of football is so stupid to me, like who 2472 01:57:38,560 --> 01:57:41,080 Speaker 3: he's dating will not pull any focus from what he 2473 01:57:41,200 --> 01:57:42,080 Speaker 3: does in preparation. 2474 01:57:44,160 --> 01:57:47,880 Speaker 2: I just don't even understand it, Like people, people are 2475 01:57:47,920 --> 01:57:50,040 Speaker 2: you and beings like you know you have a life 2476 01:57:50,080 --> 01:57:53,080 Speaker 2: outside of football, whether you know you got a girlfriend, 2477 01:57:53,120 --> 01:57:57,400 Speaker 2: a wife, a kid, or you got many girlfriends right like, 2478 01:57:57,480 --> 01:58:01,200 Speaker 2: it doesn't notes of it matters.

I can't take 2480 01:58:04,160 --> 01:58:04,640 Speaker 2: it any more. 2481 01:58:04,720 --> 01:58:10,760 Speaker 4: Figgy, Oh trust me, I've been over it since day one. 2482 01:58:10,880 --> 01:58:12,640 Speaker 5: I understand why the league is doing it, Like you 2483 01:58:12,680 --> 01:58:15,480 Speaker 5: guys mentioned marketing, reaching an audience he hadn't reached before. 2484 01:58:15,520 --> 01:58:19,400 Speaker 5: They're changing social media profiles, all that stuff. But I'm 2485 01:58:19,480 --> 01:58:21,560 Speaker 5: just I don't care until your point fifty for it 2486 01:58:21,600 --> 01:58:23,360 Speaker 5: to get to a point where you're asking Travis Kelcey 2487 01:58:23,360 --> 01:58:25,520 Speaker 5: about it at a press conference when he's trying to 2488 01:58:25,560 --> 01:58:27,960 Speaker 5: get ready for a game. You're turning in it. You 2489 01:58:28,280 --> 01:58:30,720 Speaker 5: as a media us are turning it into a distraction 2490 01:58:30,880 --> 01:58:33,000 Speaker 5: for them. We don't have to ask him about it. 2491 01:58:33,440 --> 01:58:35,000 Speaker 5: We get enough of we can bombard it with it 2492 01:58:35,080 --> 01:58:37,680 Speaker 5: by the TV networks already as it is, it's not 2493 01:58:37,840 --> 01:58:41,640 Speaker 5: important happy for him, Happy for them.

He was cute the first couple of weeks. 2496 01:58:48,880 --> 01:58:51,120 Speaker 5: Can we stop and just start talking about football in 2497 01:58:51,200 --> 01:58:52,520 Speaker 5: the Kansas City Chiefs offense? 2498 01:58:53,040 --> 01:58:54,040 Speaker 4: Can we talk about that now? 2499 01:58:54,120 --> 01:58:56,560 Speaker 1: Wouldn't that be fair to his relationship too, because if 2500 01:58:56,640 --> 01:58:59,400 Speaker 1: you are trying to start a relationship, having to answer 2501 01:58:59,520 --> 01:59:02,720 Speaker 1: questions it every two seconds is probably daunting also, so 2502 01:59:03,120 --> 01:59:04,680 Speaker 1: you know, maybe we should all just back down and 2503 01:59:04,760 --> 01:59:05,160 Speaker 1: let them be. 2504 01:59:05,600 --> 01:59:07,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, we talked about play.

I don't know 2534 02:00:56,640 --> 02:00:58,600 Speaker 3: if you have. I just need you like I need 2535 02:00:58,680 --> 02:01:00,760 Speaker 3: that to be a like on T shirts. But you 2536 02:01:00,840 --> 02:01:03,440 Speaker 3: are right, everything about this is I think it's about 2537 02:01:03,440 --> 02:01:06,360 Speaker 3: the drama. You know you're gonna get good matchups A 2538 02:01:06,400 --> 02:01:08,320 Speaker 3: lot of weekends in sports are you gonna get good 2539 02:01:08,360 --> 02:01:09,560 Speaker 3: matchups with great drama? 2540 02:01:09,760 --> 02:01:12,680 Speaker 1: And when you start talking across the board college football. 2541 02:01:12,360 --> 02:01:15,400 Speaker 3: Obviously the Red River rivalry, which we all have to 2542 02:01:15,440 --> 02:01:17,520 Speaker 3: slow down when we say because otherwise we sound. 2543 02:01:17,360 --> 02:01:20,880 Speaker 1: Like Elmer Fudd. Is that brings all the heat? I mean, 2544 02:01:20,920 --> 02:01:22,200 Speaker 1: we know that that's the case. 2545 02:01:22,520 --> 02:01:24,840 Speaker 3: But also I would argue that Texas A and M 2546 02:01:24,920 --> 02:01:28,120 Speaker 3: in Alabama even has become such a landmark. Hey, what's 2547 02:01:28,120 --> 02:01:30,400 Speaker 3: this game going to look like? Everybody cares about? We 2548 02:01:30,560 --> 02:01:33,360 Speaker 3: talked earlier about Georgia Kentucky. There's trauma on these things, 2549 02:01:33,400 --> 02:01:35,120 Speaker 3: and you can look at it and say, hey, there 2550 02:01:35,160 --> 02:01:39,160 Speaker 3: are going to be divisions in major conferences in college 2551 02:01:39,200 --> 02:01:42,760 Speaker 3: football that will take a huge step towards being decided today. 2552 02:01:43,000 --> 02:01:46,200 Speaker 3: And then yet tomorrow you've got, as you mentioned, the 2553 02:01:46,240 --> 02:01:48,800 Speaker 3: Cowboys and the forty nine ers in the game that 2554 02:01:48,960 --> 02:01:51,840 Speaker 3: just feels bigger than a regular season football game, which 2555 02:01:51,920 --> 02:01:54,440 Speaker 3: just has that certain it factor to it. And then 2556 02:01:54,480 --> 02:01:56,600 Speaker 3: on top of all of that, you pile on what 2557 02:01:56,720 --> 02:01:59,080 Speaker 3: I think there were some pretty significant game ones in 2558 02:01:59,200 --> 02:02:02,520 Speaker 3: baseball today. I think it's pretty significant for Baltimore cut 2559 02:02:02,640 --> 02:02:05,520 Speaker 3: to come out and win this game one against Texas 2560 02:02:05,640 --> 02:02:08,120 Speaker 3: at home for a young team that's in the playoffs. Like, 2561 02:02:08,160 --> 02:02:10,360 Speaker 3: I think, it's not just about the fact that there 2562 02:02:10,440 --> 02:02:13,400 Speaker 3: are good games. It's a fact that there is tremendous 2563 02:02:13,520 --> 02:02:16,680 Speaker 3: drama and importance to each of those games. That makes 2564 02:02:16,760 --> 02:02:19,080 Speaker 3: it feel more pressing and more important. 2565 02:02:20,360 --> 02:02:23,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you know it's funny because we do and 2566 02:02:24,000 --> 02:02:26,000 Speaker 2: we'll do at the end of our segment today, which 2567 02:02:26,120 --> 02:02:30,360 Speaker 2: is what are we watching? And you know, I look 2568 02:02:30,400 --> 02:02:32,680 Speaker 2: at the I look at these playoffs and I'm going 2569 02:02:33,280 --> 02:02:36,320 Speaker 2: to the baseball theater see. To me, it's about the 2570 02:02:36,440 --> 02:02:41,480 Speaker 2: theater of October. And like I think Texas Baltimore is 2571 02:02:42,080 --> 02:02:46,680 Speaker 2: an elite matchup. Twins are fun, scary, Astro is way better, 2572 02:02:47,840 --> 02:02:53,400 Speaker 2: Dodgers terrific lineup. You know, I worry about how hot 2573 02:02:53,480 --> 02:02:57,640 Speaker 2: Arizona is. Dodgers should win Philly's Braves. To me, is 2574 02:02:58,080 --> 02:03:02,560 Speaker 2: you know, to elite heavyweights going toe to toe, Like 2575 02:03:02,760 --> 02:03:08,440 Speaker 2: I mean, so, I think there is incredible like October drama. Figure, 2576 02:03:08,800 --> 02:03:11,240 Speaker 2: what do you say? I agree? 2577 02:03:11,360 --> 02:03:13,200 Speaker 5: And I don't know if I I don't necessarily agree 2578 02:03:13,240 --> 02:03:16,080 Speaker 5: that the Astros are way better. They're more experienced, but 2579 02:03:16,120 --> 02:03:18,600 Speaker 5: they certainly have not been way better this season. I 2580 02:03:18,680 --> 02:03:20,440 Speaker 5: do think they'll win that series. But I don't think 2581 02:03:20,480 --> 02:03:21,520 Speaker 5: it's going to be a walkover. 2582 02:03:22,240 --> 02:03:22,360 Speaker 1: Uh. 2583 02:03:22,880 --> 02:03:25,320 Speaker 2: We would just kind of down Twitter days to get hit, 2584 02:03:26,000 --> 02:03:29,840 Speaker 2: and you got that decent started pitching. Correct. So with that, 2585 02:03:30,800 --> 02:03:33,960 Speaker 2: just haard that that Astros man, they just are a 2586 02:03:34,080 --> 02:03:35,840 Speaker 2: machine though they're kind of vampires. 2587 02:03:35,920 --> 02:03:36,560 Speaker 4: Yeah and yeah. 2588 02:03:36,560 --> 02:03:38,480 Speaker 5: Every time we want to declare them dead or think 2589 02:03:38,520 --> 02:03:40,360 Speaker 5: that they've lost a step, you know, they wind up 2590 02:03:40,400 --> 02:03:41,960 Speaker 5: in the postseason and they find them were in the 2591 02:03:41,960 --> 02:03:42,520 Speaker 5: World Series. 2592 02:03:42,640 --> 02:03:44,800 Speaker 4: I don't deny that they're one of those teams. I'll 2593 02:03:44,880 --> 02:03:45,760 Speaker 4: just never pick against. 2594 02:03:46,000 --> 02:03:48,520 Speaker 5: You know, pick against Alabama a couple of weeks ago, 2595 02:03:48,560 --> 02:03:50,160 Speaker 5: and it came back and bited me against Ole miss 2596 02:03:50,200 --> 02:03:52,160 Speaker 5: So I said leading up to that point, I'm never 2597 02:03:52,200 --> 02:03:54,080 Speaker 5: picking against aban and I did it and it bit me. 2598 02:03:54,400 --> 02:03:56,600 Speaker 5: So I can't pick against Houston for that same reason. 2599 02:03:56,720 --> 02:03:59,320 Speaker 5: It happens every single year. I'm just saying I would 2600 02:03:59,360 --> 02:04:01,160 Speaker 5: not sleep on Minnesota, all right. 2601 02:04:01,280 --> 02:04:02,640 Speaker 3: So I got to ask both of you guys a 2602 02:04:02,760 --> 02:04:05,000 Speaker 3: question because at this point, as you both know, I 2603 02:04:05,040 --> 02:04:08,960 Speaker 3: don't have a favorite baseball team right now.

So which one of your teams? 2609 02:04:20,400 --> 02:04:23,360 Speaker 3: Am I bandwagoning to try and get the opportunity, because like, 2610 02:04:23,640 --> 02:04:27,280 Speaker 3: realistically I could bandwagon you know, Philly, obviously I could 2611 02:04:27,320 --> 02:04:31,320 Speaker 3: bandwagon the Dodgers here.

Yeah, your ingrained rivalries. You know, 2787 02:12:34,240 --> 02:12:36,640 Speaker 5: either the Padres are getting up there, you know, the 2788 02:12:37,040 --> 02:12:40,000 Speaker 5: Giants obviously historically are one of them. The Yankees all, 2789 02:12:40,080 --> 02:12:43,440 Speaker 5: I feel like that's more of a little absolutely. 2790 02:12:44,360 --> 02:12:46,280 Speaker 12: I love what the Phillies and the Dodgers. I've gone 2791 02:12:46,400 --> 02:12:48,560 Speaker 12: it's like, it's like a respected rivalry. It's a fun 2792 02:12:48,600 --> 02:12:51,320 Speaker 12: game to watch oways like with Giants and Dodgers. Recently 2793 02:12:51,360 --> 02:12:53,880 Speaker 12: it hasn't been what it's been, And even Padres and Dodgers, 2794 02:12:53,960 --> 02:12:56,400 Speaker 12: it's like, oh, it's like, it's not any good teams. 2795 02:12:56,640 --> 02:12:58,680 Speaker 12: So the Phillies are probably the only team when the 2796 02:12:58,720 --> 02:13:01,920 Speaker 12: Dodgers do play them. This is a rivalry that actually matters. 2797 02:13:01,960 --> 02:13:03,560 Speaker 12: This is a rivalry where we almost see them in 2798 02:13:03,600 --> 02:13:05,440 Speaker 12: the postseason almost every year in the past, like what 2799 02:13:05,600 --> 02:13:08,200 Speaker 12: five years, So it's it's it's honestly, it's one of 2800 02:13:08,240 --> 02:13:10,120 Speaker 12: the only rivalries that I look forward to watching. 2801 02:13:11,360 --> 02:13:13,920 Speaker 3: Cousin you gotta I mean, in the spirit of reel 2802 02:13:13,960 --> 02:13:16,360 Speaker 3: with fugacy, can we all agree that it's real that 2803 02:13:16,480 --> 02:13:18,440 Speaker 3: the Dodger dog is wildly overrated. 2804 02:13:18,480 --> 02:13:20,800 Speaker 1: It's just a big hot dog. It's just a big 2805 02:13:20,880 --> 02:13:21,240 Speaker 1: hot dog. 2806 02:13:21,440 --> 02:13:24,320 Speaker 2: Like that funny.

I gotta tell you. 2812 02:13:35,000 --> 02:13:38,120 Speaker 2: I was supremely impressed by the Dodger Dog. 2813 02:13:38,560 --> 02:13:39,800 Speaker 4: The Dodgers. 2814 02:13:41,040 --> 02:13:42,320 Speaker 1: Concession mediocrity. 2815 02:13:42,400 --> 02:13:44,280 Speaker 3: Like somebody sat down in a boardroom and said, look, 2816 02:13:44,320 --> 02:13:46,440 Speaker 3: what concession do we want to be famous for? And 2817 02:13:46,520 --> 02:13:49,400 Speaker 3: the answer was, how about a really long, subpar hot dog. 2818 02:13:50,160 --> 02:13:51,040 Speaker 2: You took it sub par? 2819 02:13:51,200 --> 02:13:51,400 Speaker 1: Really? 2820 02:13:51,640 --> 02:13:54,040 Speaker 6: Have you had the Super Dodger dog the one? 2821 02:13:54,200 --> 02:13:55,960 Speaker 4: I have to have the Super Dodger dog, but I 2822 02:13:56,080 --> 02:13:57,440 Speaker 4: can't tolerate the original one. 2823 02:13:57,560 --> 02:14:00,560 Speaker 6: The Super Dodger dog is good. I like that evermore, 2824 02:14:01,040 --> 02:14:01,600 Speaker 6: it's better. 2825 02:14:02,480 --> 02:14:04,880 Speaker 3: I have not had the Super Dodger dog because I 2826 02:14:05,040 --> 02:14:06,720 Speaker 3: was out on the Dodger dog. So if like you're 2827 02:14:06,720 --> 02:14:08,520 Speaker 3: out on something, why do you want the super. 2828 02:14:09,160 --> 02:14:11,680 Speaker 12: Try the Super Dodger dog.

And I got a lot 2929 02:18:48,280 --> 02:18:49,879 Speaker 13: of stuff this week, and I like Anthony, I look 2930 02:18:49,920 --> 02:18:51,680 Speaker 13: forward to talking to you about a lot of good 2931 02:18:51,720 --> 02:18:53,119 Speaker 13: winners and good games for this weekend. 2932 02:18:53,640 --> 02:18:56,480 Speaker 2: All right, Well, let's start off with baseball because I 2933 02:18:56,600 --> 02:19:01,560 Speaker 2: can't wait, all right. I love to fill maybe not today, 2934 02:19:01,680 --> 02:19:04,640 Speaker 2: but I love the Phillies in this series. I think 2935 02:19:04,680 --> 02:19:08,720 Speaker 2: the Phillies will beat them again. Wheeler with Game two 2936 02:19:08,840 --> 02:19:10,160 Speaker 2: and Whiller for Game five. 2937 02:19:11,400 --> 02:19:13,960 Speaker 13: We went head to head. Here, my friends, I took 2938 02:19:14,320 --> 02:19:16,280 Speaker 13: I got a good number. I took the Braves minus 2939 02:19:16,320 --> 02:19:20,600 Speaker 13: the dollars sixty. The line has gone up. Well, Anthony, 2940 02:19:21,200 --> 02:19:23,680 Speaker 13: I listen, I actually will tell you this. I do 2941 02:19:23,840 --> 02:19:25,720 Speaker 13: have the Phillies rated as the second best team in 2942 02:19:25,720 --> 02:19:27,800 Speaker 13: the National League. Actually, I think I haven't marided to 2943 02:19:27,840 --> 02:19:31,080 Speaker 13: the second best team overall in all of the postseasons. 2944 02:19:31,400 --> 02:19:33,760 Speaker 13: But I did think the Braves are the best team. 2945 02:19:34,760 --> 02:19:38,119 Speaker 13: I again, now the line has gone off, but I did. 2946 02:19:38,240 --> 02:19:41,560 Speaker 13: I do have a ticket on the Braves minus one sixty. 2947 02:19:42,360 --> 02:19:44,960 Speaker 13: I think they're the better team. I really do. But 2948 02:19:45,080 --> 02:19:47,840 Speaker 13: to me, there's a reason they won wenty more games 2949 02:19:47,879 --> 02:19:50,160 Speaker 13: from the Phillies. But again, anything in a short series, 2950 02:19:50,520 --> 02:19:55,000 Speaker 13: it's certainly possible. But now I do lean Atlanta, I think, 2951 02:19:55,120 --> 02:19:56,879 Speaker 13: And I'll give you a prop in the game one 2952 02:19:56,959 --> 02:20:02,240 Speaker 13: that I like a bunch Rangers Farez to give up 2953 02:20:02,280 --> 02:20:04,600 Speaker 13: over four and a half hits. Braves led the league 2954 02:20:04,600 --> 02:20:09,480 Speaker 13: and hits for me to lose this game. Flrez would again. 2955 02:20:09,760 --> 02:20:12,280 Speaker 13: Could they take him out after three innings four innings 2956 02:20:12,760 --> 02:20:16,520 Speaker 13: after he gives up three hits. It's possible, but if 2957 02:20:16,560 --> 02:20:18,400 Speaker 13: that's the case, I would think that they would give 2958 02:20:18,480 --> 02:20:20,160 Speaker 13: him a chance to at least give a few runs 2959 02:20:20,440 --> 02:20:23,360 Speaker 13: before they go to their bullpen. But I do think 2960 02:20:23,400 --> 02:20:26,199 Speaker 13: it's look. I respect that there was a lot antony. Again, 2961 02:20:26,240 --> 02:20:28,280 Speaker 13: I rad ranked as the second best team, but I 2962 02:20:28,360 --> 02:20:29,560 Speaker 13: just think the Braves are the best team. 2963 02:20:30,400 --> 02:20:32,560 Speaker 1: Is there a series you look at right now that 2964 02:20:32,640 --> 02:20:33,680 Speaker 1: you like the underdog again? 2965 02:20:35,160 --> 02:20:37,920 Speaker 13: You know, one series again? And I did actually bet 2966 02:20:37,959 --> 02:20:43,520 Speaker 13: Baltimore today with British, who's been their number one starter. 2967 02:20:44,760 --> 02:20:47,360 Speaker 13: But I do actually think Texas is going to win 2968 02:20:47,440 --> 02:20:50,880 Speaker 13: that series. I like Evan Carter being caught up to 2969 02:20:50,920 --> 02:20:53,039 Speaker 13: me to changing their team a lot. Oh my god, 2970 02:20:53,120 --> 02:20:57,160 Speaker 13: he Carter, Yeah, he looks like you're the guy had 2971 02:20:57,200 --> 02:21:00,040 Speaker 13: been following like the miners for a long time and 2972 02:21:00,280 --> 02:21:02,640 Speaker 13: they've gotten healthy, like they're at least their hitters have. 2973 02:21:03,200 --> 02:21:06,879 Speaker 13: Where their lineup now I think is the second best 2974 02:21:07,320 --> 02:21:10,280 Speaker 13: after the Braves. And I think Baltimore, ever since say 2975 02:21:10,320 --> 02:21:15,160 Speaker 13: all Steelk's ball Pista, the least close games they were 2976 02:21:15,200 --> 02:21:16,680 Speaker 13: winning at needs to be a lot harder for them 2977 02:21:16,840 --> 02:21:19,200 Speaker 13: because their bullpen, to me, is now a weakness. And 2978 02:21:19,280 --> 02:21:22,760 Speaker 13: then a series like this British has been great, but 2979 02:21:23,080 --> 02:21:25,840 Speaker 13: outside of that, and Rodriguez has been pretty decent. But 2980 02:21:26,520 --> 02:21:28,760 Speaker 13: I think they're gonna have a hard time holding texas 2981 02:21:28,800 --> 02:21:32,440 Speaker 13: As bats down. That would be my favorite. I guess 2982 02:21:32,800 --> 02:21:34,760 Speaker 13: they're only a slight underdogs, but that would be my 2983 02:21:34,800 --> 02:21:36,840 Speaker 13: favorite one there. And I did bet the Dodgers also 2984 02:21:37,800 --> 02:21:41,560 Speaker 13: laying two to one odds against the Diamondbacks. I think 2985 02:21:41,640 --> 02:21:45,800 Speaker 13: Arizona a big future in Arizona. Crazy odds, but I 2986 02:21:45,879 --> 02:21:48,240 Speaker 13: do think they're overmatched against the Dodgers. But as I 2987 02:21:48,280 --> 02:21:50,840 Speaker 13: will cost from everyone in the best of five series, 2988 02:21:50,920 --> 02:21:55,920 Speaker 13: baseball's not like basketball, not like football. The underdog could 2989 02:21:55,959 --> 02:22:00,840 Speaker 13: win very, very easily. So there is That's what I'm saying. 2990 02:22:00,840 --> 02:22:04,199 Speaker 13: The Suntilies certainly can win because they're a great team 2991 02:22:04,320 --> 02:22:09,840 Speaker 13: and baseball, apparently speaking in the short series, anything can happen. 2992 02:22:11,320 --> 02:22:15,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it is baseball. I mean, I'm a big 2993 02:22:15,440 --> 02:22:18,400 Speaker 2: believer in that because bats go cold. I'll tell the 2994 02:22:18,520 --> 02:22:21,600 Speaker 2: other thing too. When you're a little advice, I think 2995 02:22:21,640 --> 02:22:25,400 Speaker 2: you'll agree. You know, watch how a team comes out, 2996 02:22:25,480 --> 02:22:29,200 Speaker 2: because don't be afraid of coming right back to it too. 2997 02:22:29,320 --> 02:22:32,000 Speaker 2: Even if an underdog wins, come right back to them, 2998 02:22:32,080 --> 02:22:35,400 Speaker 2: because like you could see if a team goes cold 2999 02:22:35,800 --> 02:22:39,039 Speaker 2: and has no bats. That's something that that can last. 3000 02:22:40,360 --> 02:22:43,320 Speaker 13: Again, Look, you're absolutely right. Look it's very it's a 3001 02:22:43,520 --> 02:22:46,800 Speaker 13: very informed sport baseball, so to speak, right, I mean, 3002 02:22:46,840 --> 02:22:49,040 Speaker 13: it's like it's how you're It's almost like golf when 3003 02:22:49,080 --> 02:22:52,200 Speaker 13: guys are hot or whatnot. Baseball is the same kind 3004 02:22:52,240 --> 02:22:55,080 Speaker 13: of way, and you'll you'll see guys for you know, Look, 3005 02:22:55,120 --> 02:22:58,240 Speaker 13: look at Trey Turner's a perfect example. The first four 3006 02:22:58,280 --> 02:23:01,040 Speaker 13: months of the season, Trade Turner really struggled, you know, 3007 02:23:01,120 --> 02:23:02,600 Speaker 13: and then in the last two months he went back 3008 02:23:02,640 --> 02:23:05,160 Speaker 13: to being the trade Turner he's been over years. So 3009 02:23:05,800 --> 02:23:09,840 Speaker 13: guys he getting in in in thruts or are hot 3010 02:23:10,040 --> 02:23:13,040 Speaker 13: or whatnot throughout the season, and it happens all the time. 3011 02:23:13,120 --> 02:23:15,240 Speaker 13: I will say this, the Rae's not having Charlie Morton 3012 02:23:15,800 --> 02:23:17,600 Speaker 13: is a big blow for them because I think if 3013 02:23:17,640 --> 02:23:19,920 Speaker 13: he was there, I really would have liked the Brave 3014 02:23:20,440 --> 02:23:22,800 Speaker 13: but he's third, number three starter. But I just think 3015 02:23:22,879 --> 02:23:25,840 Speaker 13: having Freed and the Strider is going to be too 3016 02:23:25,920 --> 02:23:27,840 Speaker 13: much as great as we were if I start don't 3017 02:23:27,840 --> 02:23:32,080 Speaker 13: trust Aaronola despite his shutout and again some marlnsingan. 3018 02:23:31,480 --> 02:23:36,320 Speaker 2: Too all right, So yeah, what he got there Fini. 3019 02:23:36,680 --> 02:23:38,320 Speaker 3: Well, no, I want to take him over to college 3020 02:23:38,360 --> 02:23:41,120 Speaker 3: football because I'm dying to know some of his thoughts 3021 02:23:41,160 --> 02:23:44,279 Speaker 3: on what to look at today, specifically with a conversation 3022 02:23:44,440 --> 02:23:46,480 Speaker 3: that cousin and I were having earlier in the show, 3023 02:23:46,800 --> 02:23:49,880 Speaker 3: and like, this is a very deep thought here. But 3024 02:23:50,320 --> 02:23:52,480 Speaker 3: we're looking at all these college football matchup trying to 3025 02:23:52,480 --> 02:23:54,320 Speaker 3: figure out what to make of metrics when most of 3026 02:23:54,400 --> 02:23:57,000 Speaker 3: these teams haven't played anybody. When you're looking at it, 3027 02:23:57,120 --> 02:23:59,080 Speaker 3: how hard is it to figure out? You know, look 3028 02:23:59,120 --> 02:24:03,080 Speaker 3: at we're looking at Tech Oklahoma, Like, who's Oklahoma really played? 3029 02:24:03,080 --> 02:24:05,320 Speaker 3: How do we know anything about Oklahoma right now in 3030 02:24:05,360 --> 02:24:07,160 Speaker 3: this matchup? So how does that factor in for you 3031 02:24:07,280 --> 02:24:09,640 Speaker 3: when you're looking at what the bet look? 3032 02:24:09,800 --> 02:24:12,640 Speaker 13: There's always look, it's never easy to do that, because 3033 02:24:12,640 --> 02:24:17,480 Speaker 13: you're right, until teams play better competition to a certain extent, 3034 02:24:17,640 --> 02:24:20,240 Speaker 13: Let's be honest, you're always it always is going to 3035 02:24:20,280 --> 02:24:22,200 Speaker 13: be an educated guest to a certain extent, until you 3036 02:24:22,280 --> 02:24:26,000 Speaker 13: play good team versus good team. Now Texas, of course, Jason, 3037 02:24:26,040 --> 02:24:29,720 Speaker 13: they had the team the game against Alabama, which is 3038 02:24:29,800 --> 02:24:32,400 Speaker 13: probably you know, one of the more impressive performances this 3039 02:24:32,520 --> 02:24:37,560 Speaker 13: year now, and that game specifically, I actually lean Oklahoma. 3040 02:24:37,600 --> 02:24:39,320 Speaker 13: I think Oklahoma is a good chance to win the game. 3041 02:24:39,360 --> 02:24:41,440 Speaker 13: But my favorite bet in that game actually, I like 3042 02:24:41,560 --> 02:24:45,920 Speaker 13: under sixty one points. I really do believe Oklahoma's defense 3043 02:24:46,640 --> 02:24:51,040 Speaker 13: is for real. I think their defense finally is good. 3044 02:24:51,800 --> 02:24:55,039 Speaker 13: I know Texas has a good defense. Look last year's 3045 02:24:55,080 --> 02:24:57,039 Speaker 13: game I think was forty nine to nothing. I would 3046 02:24:57,080 --> 02:25:00,760 Speaker 13: be stunned if Texas does anything like that offensively here, 3047 02:25:01,680 --> 02:25:05,119 Speaker 13: I like doing Gabriel. But I do think that both 3048 02:25:05,160 --> 02:25:08,240 Speaker 13: these defenses can hold these teams to a lower scoring game. 3049 02:25:08,320 --> 02:25:10,680 Speaker 13: I wouldn't be shocked again. I think this game is 3050 02:25:10,680 --> 02:25:12,840 Speaker 13: gonna be played in the forties, not the sixties. I 3051 02:25:13,000 --> 02:25:14,440 Speaker 13: like under sixty one points here. 3052 02:25:15,640 --> 02:25:20,240 Speaker 2: Wow, okay, yeah, I like it all right. Let me 3053 02:25:20,760 --> 02:25:24,280 Speaker 2: let me go further with you. Let's go Alabama A 3054 02:25:24,520 --> 02:25:28,360 Speaker 2: and M and the other one that is I'm kind 3055 02:25:28,400 --> 02:25:32,680 Speaker 2: of looking at, and I'm going I like, i'd like 3056 02:25:32,800 --> 02:25:35,240 Speaker 2: Notre Dame. I still don't think Louisville's play anybody. But 3057 02:25:35,800 --> 02:25:37,520 Speaker 2: where are you looking at with those two teams those 3058 02:25:37,560 --> 02:25:37,920 Speaker 2: two games? 3059 02:25:37,959 --> 02:25:40,600 Speaker 13: Well, I'll start off for the Alabama game, Anthony. Yeah, Look, 3060 02:25:40,879 --> 02:25:43,480 Speaker 13: you know text A and M. Wagman got hurt. Looks 3061 02:25:43,520 --> 02:25:48,680 Speaker 13: like we're get Max Johnson. Look, Alabama since they made 3062 02:25:48,680 --> 02:25:51,200 Speaker 13: the decision to stick with Milroe, look like a better 3063 02:25:51,320 --> 02:25:54,840 Speaker 13: team here than they've been. But I like the way 3064 02:25:54,879 --> 02:25:58,040 Speaker 13: AM's played in their loss. Looks a lot better now, right, 3065 02:25:58,200 --> 02:26:02,520 Speaker 13: I mean, Miami feel quite good. I wish it was three. 3066 02:26:02,760 --> 02:26:04,320 Speaker 13: I mean, this is not a game on my card. 3067 02:26:04,480 --> 02:26:06,760 Speaker 13: I wish it was three, even if the obviously three 3068 02:26:06,760 --> 02:26:09,800 Speaker 13: and a half enough play. But I lean her to 3069 02:26:09,840 --> 02:26:14,000 Speaker 13: A and M. My numbers made this game pick. Getting 3070 02:26:14,040 --> 02:26:16,800 Speaker 13: two and a half points not quite enough for to 3071 02:26:16,840 --> 02:26:19,280 Speaker 13: pull the trigger on it. But I do lean A 3072 02:26:19,400 --> 02:26:21,200 Speaker 13: and M. And then the other game I think. Look, 3073 02:26:21,200 --> 02:26:23,959 Speaker 13: I agree with you, but not Dame has been missing 3074 02:26:24,000 --> 02:26:25,560 Speaker 13: a lot of their receivers and getting some of those 3075 02:26:25,560 --> 02:26:28,279 Speaker 13: guys back. That's the reason why to me that Duke game, Nogain, 3076 02:26:28,360 --> 02:26:30,560 Speaker 13: I that was a tough environment. Anyway, while that Duke 3077 02:26:30,600 --> 02:26:33,960 Speaker 13: game was so close, I agree. Look, Louisville is a 3078 02:26:34,000 --> 02:26:36,080 Speaker 13: team that I had a bunch of futures on. Their 3079 02:26:36,120 --> 02:26:38,800 Speaker 13: season went in total over which so far looks good. 3080 02:26:38,879 --> 02:26:40,920 Speaker 13: Knock on would But I agree with you. I think 3081 02:26:40,959 --> 02:26:43,520 Speaker 13: that they're a little bit overrated here. I do notre 3082 02:26:43,600 --> 02:26:46,240 Speaker 13: Dame's laying less than a touchdowns. It couldn't be a 3083 02:26:46,280 --> 02:26:49,480 Speaker 13: big game, good environment. But I do think Notre Dames jong. 3084 02:26:49,520 --> 02:26:51,640 Speaker 13: But the team is like played a much tougher schedule, 3085 02:26:52,240 --> 02:26:54,480 Speaker 13: and I trust them more and I think that they're 3086 02:26:54,520 --> 02:26:56,760 Speaker 13: ready for this game. I do think that they covered 3087 02:26:56,800 --> 02:26:58,120 Speaker 13: the game of them by at least touchdowns. 3088 02:26:59,200 --> 02:27:01,800 Speaker 1: Do you trust Georgia at all at this point, given 3089 02:27:01,800 --> 02:27:04,360 Speaker 1: the fact that they played four quarters together, No. 3090 02:27:04,480 --> 02:27:06,400 Speaker 13: I really don't. Look. Now Here's the thing I will 3091 02:27:06,480 --> 02:27:11,080 Speaker 13: say this is, and I'm going back twenty years, guys, 3092 02:27:11,080 --> 02:27:14,240 Speaker 13: I swear this is the most wide open year I've 3093 02:27:14,280 --> 02:27:16,560 Speaker 13: seen in twenty years in college football. It's not that 3094 02:27:16,640 --> 02:27:18,960 Speaker 13: Georgia is bad, don't get me wrong. It's just that 3095 02:27:19,120 --> 02:27:22,160 Speaker 13: we don't have a team like Traditionally, Alabama and Georgia 3096 02:27:22,160 --> 02:27:25,160 Speaker 13: and Ohio State have been so dominant year after year 3097 02:27:25,200 --> 02:27:29,280 Speaker 13: after year that those teams are basically unbeatable. We do 3098 02:27:29,400 --> 02:27:32,120 Speaker 13: not have that this year. Now, Kentucky, do I think 3099 02:27:32,160 --> 02:27:35,119 Speaker 13: Kentucky's team to maybe do it? Probably not. I don't 3100 02:27:35,120 --> 02:27:38,360 Speaker 13: know why trust Kentucky either line fourteen and a half. 3101 02:27:39,120 --> 02:27:41,320 Speaker 13: It's a pass for me. But I certainly am not 3102 02:27:41,480 --> 02:27:44,920 Speaker 13: laying big numbers with Georgia. The way their offenses. Look, 3103 02:27:44,959 --> 02:27:48,120 Speaker 13: I'm just not doing it. But I do think that 3104 02:27:48,840 --> 02:27:52,120 Speaker 13: someone's going to beat this Georgia team eventually. And I 3105 02:27:52,160 --> 02:27:54,440 Speaker 13: don't think George's going to win the national championship this year. 3106 02:27:54,440 --> 02:27:55,080 Speaker 13: I really don't. 3107 02:27:56,840 --> 02:28:00,440 Speaker 2: All right, NFL, let's take a look at tom is one. 3108 02:28:00,320 --> 02:28:00,600 Speaker 13: Of the game. 3109 02:28:00,640 --> 02:28:00,840 Speaker 2: I like. 3110 02:28:01,320 --> 02:28:04,520 Speaker 13: I just like Michigan lang eighteen against Minnesota. I think 3111 02:28:04,600 --> 02:28:07,119 Speaker 13: Michigan is right now. Their power rank is my number 3112 02:28:07,120 --> 02:28:09,840 Speaker 13: one team in college football right now. Minnesota I has 3113 02:28:10,360 --> 02:28:13,280 Speaker 13: not been impressed with at all. I think Michigan wins 3114 02:28:13,280 --> 02:28:14,600 Speaker 13: that one by over three touchdowns. 3115 02:28:17,360 --> 02:28:20,560 Speaker 2: Wow, I could say I like that. I love that pick. Actually, 3116 02:28:20,600 --> 02:28:23,640 Speaker 2: I think that picks spot on. And nobody knows Michigan 3117 02:28:23,720 --> 02:28:26,520 Speaker 2: like Brad does. He's in Michigan grad. Nobody knows them. 3118 02:28:26,840 --> 02:28:33,120 Speaker 2: Hey tomorrow night, Niners Cowboys? Ah, wow, where are you 3119 02:28:33,280 --> 02:28:34,920 Speaker 2: leaning here? Well? 3120 02:28:34,959 --> 02:28:36,959 Speaker 13: I do have a better linggum. I was all the stats. 3121 02:28:37,320 --> 02:28:39,400 Speaker 13: I mean, so far as stat wise, the forty nine 3122 02:28:39,480 --> 02:28:41,640 Speaker 13: ers have been the best team the NFL by a 3123 02:28:41,720 --> 02:28:45,480 Speaker 13: wide margin yards for playing metrics like that and all 3124 02:28:45,520 --> 02:28:48,800 Speaker 13: the wise guys like have them power radios are number 3125 02:28:48,840 --> 02:28:51,920 Speaker 13: one team. I will say this, Look, I think this 3126 02:28:52,120 --> 02:28:55,280 Speaker 13: line it's three and a half in most places. I 3127 02:28:55,320 --> 02:28:57,240 Speaker 13: think it's going to go to at least four everywhere. 3128 02:28:57,959 --> 02:29:03,120 Speaker 13: I do lean Dallas. I think Dallas last year's playoff game, 3129 02:29:03,640 --> 02:29:06,720 Speaker 13: if you really got played San Francisco and Dak Prescott 3130 02:29:06,920 --> 02:29:08,960 Speaker 13: put on one of the worst performances I've ever seen. 3131 02:29:09,400 --> 02:29:11,560 Speaker 13: Sy go A handledly lost the game. Could he do 3132 02:29:11,640 --> 02:29:14,920 Speaker 13: it again, Sure, But I think Dallas is a better 3133 02:29:14,959 --> 02:29:19,000 Speaker 13: team than San Francisco's just my personal opinion. I don't 3134 02:29:19,040 --> 02:29:21,640 Speaker 13: think Frisco's going eighteen and oh or probably seventeen and oh. 3135 02:29:22,000 --> 02:29:23,520 Speaker 13: I think this is one of the games they can lose, 3136 02:29:23,879 --> 02:29:25,440 Speaker 13: you know. And I think it will be a very 3137 02:29:25,480 --> 02:29:28,119 Speaker 13: good game, a very close game. A couple of props 3138 02:29:28,120 --> 02:29:30,760 Speaker 13: I will like. I like very much. Tony Powell over 3139 02:29:30,760 --> 02:29:33,160 Speaker 13: with fifty five and a half yards. I mean, geez, 3140 02:29:33,280 --> 02:29:36,920 Speaker 13: I don't get that at all. This guy averages about 3141 02:29:36,959 --> 02:29:39,440 Speaker 13: eighty yards a game, and the Christian McCaffrey over seventy 3142 02:29:39,480 --> 02:29:42,680 Speaker 13: seven and a half yards. Dallas's run defense has been 3143 02:29:42,879 --> 02:29:46,000 Speaker 13: extremely disappointing. I would be stunned at McAffrey doesn't get 3144 02:29:46,000 --> 02:29:48,800 Speaker 13: at least seventeen eighteen nineteen carries and get his eighty 3145 02:29:48,879 --> 02:29:50,760 Speaker 13: yards here. Really like that prop quite a bit. 3146 02:29:51,800 --> 02:29:53,200 Speaker 1: Is there a game out there that you're just in 3147 02:29:53,280 --> 02:29:54,560 Speaker 1: love with on Sunday? 3148 02:29:55,800 --> 02:29:57,640 Speaker 13: Yeah, I'll tell you a game, the game that I 3149 02:29:58,240 --> 02:30:00,920 Speaker 13: guess had my biggest bet on, and it's funny it 3150 02:30:01,040 --> 02:30:02,760 Speaker 13: Now the line's changed since I bet it, but I 3151 02:30:02,800 --> 02:30:05,120 Speaker 13: still do like it. It's on only moved to point 3152 02:30:05,120 --> 02:30:08,600 Speaker 13: in a half. But the Falcons opened to three against 3153 02:30:08,600 --> 02:30:12,160 Speaker 13: the Texans and it got down to Peckham. Now, Atlanta's 3154 02:30:12,160 --> 02:30:13,520 Speaker 13: a team I had a big bet on. Their season 3155 02:30:13,560 --> 02:30:18,840 Speaker 13: went under. Not a fan of Atlanta, but look, this 3156 02:30:19,040 --> 02:30:21,560 Speaker 13: is a game at home against a Texan team which 3157 02:30:21,560 --> 02:30:24,080 Speaker 13: against Stroud's been incredible and I like the way it looked. 3158 02:30:24,080 --> 02:30:27,080 Speaker 13: But I do think the Falcons. Look, they had back 3159 02:30:27,120 --> 02:30:29,760 Speaker 13: to back games, had to play in London against a 3160 02:30:29,920 --> 02:30:33,760 Speaker 13: better Jaguar team, and then they had the game at Detroit, 3161 02:30:34,959 --> 02:30:37,520 Speaker 13: which Detroit is just I think a legitimately good team. 3162 02:30:37,920 --> 02:30:39,600 Speaker 13: I think they're every bit as good as the Texans. 3163 02:30:39,640 --> 02:30:41,960 Speaker 13: I do actually have them rated a point better in 3164 02:30:42,040 --> 02:30:45,400 Speaker 13: my Power ratings. This line, someone's basically suggesting that Texans 3165 02:30:45,440 --> 02:30:47,560 Speaker 13: are the better team. I'm not ready to go there yet. 3166 02:30:47,600 --> 02:30:50,360 Speaker 13: I don't like Desan Ritter, but I think this is 3167 02:30:50,400 --> 02:30:53,560 Speaker 13: a spot and a game. Everyone's tilling the Texans how 3168 02:30:53,600 --> 02:30:56,040 Speaker 13: great they are after that huge win over Pittsburgh. I 3169 02:30:56,120 --> 02:30:58,120 Speaker 13: think Atlanta wins this game. Again, the line being less 3170 02:30:58,200 --> 02:31:00,400 Speaker 13: than a field goal, just think it's a little bit light. 3171 02:31:00,680 --> 02:31:02,560 Speaker 13: I like the Falcons to take care of business and 3172 02:31:02,560 --> 02:31:03,160 Speaker 13: get a win. There. 3173 02:31:04,000 --> 02:31:06,199 Speaker 2: About the Rams in the Eagles. 3174 02:31:06,440 --> 02:31:08,840 Speaker 13: Yeah, I like this one too, Anthony. I'm gonna hurt 3175 02:31:08,840 --> 02:31:09,320 Speaker 13: your feelings. 3176 02:31:09,720 --> 02:31:11,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, I know you be on the Rams. 3177 02:31:11,640 --> 02:31:14,760 Speaker 2: It's a it's a it's a tough spot I think 3178 02:31:14,800 --> 02:31:17,920 Speaker 2: for the Eagles because, first of all, Cup coming back. 3179 02:31:18,760 --> 02:31:22,840 Speaker 2: You know, Pooka is fantastic. The one area there's no 3180 02:31:22,959 --> 02:31:25,720 Speaker 2: Fletcher Cocks and the one area that you're going to 3181 02:31:25,760 --> 02:31:29,680 Speaker 2: attack the Eagles is down the field and secondary. So 3182 02:31:30,440 --> 02:31:32,720 Speaker 2: even though I have good corners, the safety play is 3183 02:31:32,720 --> 02:31:36,000 Speaker 2: a little suspect. So the matchup I think kind of 3184 02:31:36,080 --> 02:31:38,960 Speaker 2: favors the Rams. I figured you'd be on there. 3185 02:31:39,480 --> 02:31:42,760 Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah, Anthony, And it's interesting. Look I everything again, Antie, 3186 02:31:42,760 --> 02:31:45,840 Speaker 13: everything you just said is exactly how I handicap it. 3187 02:31:45,879 --> 02:31:48,040 Speaker 13: And I was this again. I always say in life, 3188 02:31:48,400 --> 02:31:50,120 Speaker 13: you know, one of the biggest mistakes people get is 3189 02:31:50,160 --> 02:31:53,520 Speaker 13: they'd rather be consistent over rather than being Rather being correct, 3190 02:31:53,560 --> 02:31:55,680 Speaker 13: I'd rather be right. I don't care if I'm consistent. 3191 02:31:55,760 --> 02:31:57,280 Speaker 13: I'll change my mind every week if I have to 3192 02:31:57,440 --> 02:31:59,520 Speaker 13: to get the right side. The Rams, who are team 3193 02:31:59,560 --> 02:32:02,240 Speaker 13: coming to the I was I thought they were going 3194 02:32:02,280 --> 02:32:04,200 Speaker 13: to be a gas can. I thought they're going to 3195 02:32:04,200 --> 02:32:04,680 Speaker 13: be awful. 3196 02:32:04,959 --> 02:32:06,840 Speaker 2: No, they're good. Yeah, Matt. 3197 02:32:06,959 --> 02:32:08,520 Speaker 13: You know what Matt Stafford looks like. He looks like 3198 02:32:08,560 --> 02:32:11,920 Speaker 13: Matt Stafford. He looks like arguably the best quarterback in 3199 02:32:11,959 --> 02:32:14,480 Speaker 13: the NFC right now, and I really think he probably 3200 02:32:14,640 --> 02:32:16,720 Speaker 13: is right now the way he's playing. The best quarterback 3201 02:32:16,760 --> 02:32:18,600 Speaker 13: in the NFC. This is a guy who has the 3202 02:32:18,640 --> 02:32:21,600 Speaker 13: pedigree being a probably on the Hall of Fame trajectory 3203 02:32:21,840 --> 02:32:24,680 Speaker 13: before he got hurt last year. He looks great and 3204 02:32:24,760 --> 02:32:28,959 Speaker 13: you're right. Having Nukua and now cut back, I think 3205 02:32:29,000 --> 02:32:31,520 Speaker 13: this team can really score. I made a pizza bet 3206 02:32:31,600 --> 02:32:35,600 Speaker 13: guys on Matt Stafford the league the weekend in passing 3207 02:32:35,680 --> 02:32:37,640 Speaker 13: yards at twelve twel odds. I think he's have a 3208 02:32:37,720 --> 02:32:39,640 Speaker 13: huge game. I bet him over two and sixty nine 3209 02:32:40,000 --> 02:32:41,840 Speaker 13: and a half yards. I think the Rams win this 3210 02:32:41,920 --> 02:32:43,960 Speaker 13: game outright, one of my favorite games in the week. 3211 02:32:44,400 --> 02:32:46,120 Speaker 2: Well, I think Digals are going to score, so I 3212 02:32:46,160 --> 02:32:49,560 Speaker 2: think that'll help. I like the over and then that 3213 02:32:49,680 --> 02:32:52,760 Speaker 2: why Stafford, I like that, that's a good bet. 3214 02:32:53,120 --> 02:32:55,160 Speaker 13: I also like the over. I do think, Gastony, I 3215 02:32:55,200 --> 02:32:57,680 Speaker 13: agree with you. I think both teams score, you know, 3216 02:32:58,040 --> 02:33:00,000 Speaker 13: at least in the mid twenties. And if that's the case, 3217 02:33:00,760 --> 02:33:03,360 Speaker 13: don't leave my misgan education. It's going over fifty points. 3218 02:33:03,800 --> 02:33:07,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, Hey, great stuff, Bradley, Thank you, buddy.
