Speaker 2: Game Time?

15
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 1: All right, we'll get to John Middlecoff in about ten minutes,

16
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 1: the former NFL scout, and he'll join me for an

17
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 1: hour of going through most of the games, not all,

18
00:00:58,080 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: but most of the games in the league. Let's start

19
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,639
Speaker 1: with Chicago and Houston. So, first of all, the Texans

20
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:06,680
Speaker 1: had seven sacks, most in the NFL this year, and

21
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,679
Speaker 1: eleven quarterback hits. That's the most this week in the NFL.

22
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 1: So Caleb Williams didn't have much of a chance now

23
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 1: he had two picks, would have had a third, but

24
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:18,120
Speaker 1: a penalty let him off the hook. All these young

25
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 1: quarterbacks are struggling. Bo Nix is struggling, Caleb's struggling. You know,

26
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 1: Michael Pennix is a lucky one. He's not playing. Don't

27
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 1: forget Lamar Jackson got eleven weeks or ten weeks to

28
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 1: watch Joe Flacko play in Baltimore, and Mahomes got sixteen

29
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 1: or fifteen weeks to watch Alex Smith play. It's really hard,

30
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,399
Speaker 1: and the Texans may hit harder than every team in

31
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 1: the league. They're at home.

32
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:43,119
Speaker 2: Not much of.

33
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 1: A dynamic run game for the Bears, so it's all

34
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 1: on Kleb Williams's feet, legs, Houdini act.

35
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 2: You know his timing.

36
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 1: DJ Moore got very frustrated with him in the fourth

37
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 1: quarter with a couple of minutes left. But I mean,

38
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 1: what am I supposed to take from this? Houston's a

39
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 1: better team, a better roster. At home Sunday Night football,

40
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: c J. Stroud had more time to throw the first half.

41
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: C J. Strowd threw for one hundred and seventy three

42
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 1: yards in a touchdown and was mostly very very comfortable

43
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 1: and he's got more good weapons. Now I do like

44
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 1: DJ Moore, but Roma Dunze is a kid, he's a rookie,

45
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 1: and Keenan Allen's hurt. Everything was in Houston's favor. I'm

46
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 1: you know, if not for the fumble, they w a

47
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:26,079
Speaker 1: won by two touchdowns. So I didn't think it was

48
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: going to be a competitive game, and the Bears made

49
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: it competitive. I thought they played some really good defensive football.

50
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 1: But this is I mean, c J. Stroud's better, the

51
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 1: team's better, the rosters better, they're at home, the coach

52
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:41,119
Speaker 1: is probably better. I will say this about Caleb Williams.

53
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 1: First of all, the Bears offense doesn't have much of

54
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 1: an identity, and it doesn't have an identity because Caleb

55
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: Bright now is running for his life and he's trying

56
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,919
Speaker 1: to figure the league out. So, you know, the good

57
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:55,959
Speaker 1: teams in this league you sort of know what they

58
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 1: are on both sides of the ball, but especially on offense,

59
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 1: they have, you know, a sense of what they are are.

60
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 1: Chicago doesn't have that, By the way, Houston does. You know,

61
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 1: we're in week two, heading into week three. Houston does

62
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: have an identity. One of the more accurate passers in

63
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 1: the league, multiple threats. Nico Collins is they compared him

64
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 1: to Andre Johnson earlier in the game.

65
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 2: I don't know if he's that good, but a.

66
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 1: Big targets Joe Mixon, speed targets good tight ends. I mean,

67
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 1: the Houston Texans, there's an argument that's the second best

68
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 1: team in the league. I mean, really, CJ. Stroud's comp

69
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 1: coming into the NFL was Jared Goff, and I remember

70
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: saying that's a fair comp. I think he runs a

71
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 1: little better, but he is kid's dynamite. He is effortlessly accurate,

72
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 1: deep ball, intermediates, flat everything. He's really special, and so

73
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 1: I think the Houston Texans are completely legitimate Super Bowl team. Again,

74
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 1: if not for a fumble, this would have been over earlier.

75
00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: The Bears, you just got to be patient. You just

76
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: got to give him time. I mean, they got a

77
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 1: gift win in Week one. They were out played by Tennessee.

78
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 1: So you're one in one. You take a deep breath.

79
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 1: Caleb Williams took a beating to night between the sacks

80
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: and the hits, and he got popped on the sideline.

81
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 1: Bear fans wanted to flag. If not for that, for

82
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,280
Speaker 1: the punch by the Texans. But you know, it's a

83
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 1: big stadium, there's layers, You're not going to see everything.

84
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 1: I just think you have to protect him better. I

85
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:25,479
Speaker 1: don't think I've seen a quarterback take that kind of

86
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: beating all year. In fact, I haven't. I'm not sure

87
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 1: the second worst quarterback beating I've seen, but that was

88
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,720
Speaker 1: that was Ross tonight, you know. And some of it is,

89
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 1: you know, he's trying to extend plays, which you know,

90
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: I saw Justin Herbert get banged up a little doing that.

91
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 2: I saw Joe Burrow fumble today doing that.

92
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 1: You know. But these are pro athletes, they're gamers, they're

93
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 1: you know, there's a shortage of great offensive linemen, especially tackles.

94
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 2: In the NFL.

95
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,479
Speaker 1: Everybody's got a good edge rusher. Every team, it feels like,

96
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 1: has a good edge rusher or two. There's maybe six

97
00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 1: great left tackles in football, maybe maybe four to six

98
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: good right tackles. So it's an issue, and the quarterbacks

99
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 1: take the beating for it. So I wouldn't get too

100
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: freaked out. I mean, the Bears were picked for third

101
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 1: or fourth place. It's funny right now Minnesota is two

102
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: and oh everybody else in their division is one and one,

103
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:19,039
Speaker 1: So the entire NFC North except for Minnesota, has a loss.

104
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 1: How about Sammy Darnold. We'll talk about that with John Middlecoff.

105
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 1: And you know, the Houston Texans are two and oh

106
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: and everybody else in their division is oh and two,

107
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 1: so they pulled away. But you know, my big takeaway

108
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:38,360
Speaker 1: tonight is simply the better team at home, the better quarterback,

109
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 1: probably the better coach, the better roster one. And I

110
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 1: can't beat up on Kayleb Williams too much. Bow Nick's

111
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 1: had a rough day. I thought Jade Daniels for Washington,

112
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: he's really really electric. His comp coming in was Lamar Jackson.

113
00:05:55,560 --> 00:06:00,600
Speaker 1: He's not that fast, but he's he's special. And again

114
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 1: JJ McCarthy will sit due to injury, and Michael Pennix

115
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,480
Speaker 1: will sit for at least another week.

116
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 2: I don't know.

117
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:11,919
Speaker 1: We'll watch the Eagles and Falcons tomorrow. But the Houston

118
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 1: Texans struggled with protection in the first half. They were

119
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,720
Speaker 1: struggling to protect CJ. Stroud. That said, he still too

120
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:21,719
Speaker 1: for about one hundred and seventy five yards. But it

121
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: is remarkable to turnaround. I'm trying to think the last

122
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: time there was an NFL franchise that was a laughing stock.

123
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 1: The following year they made the playoffs, and then the

124
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 1: year after that they may be the second best team

125
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 1: in the league. I mean they hit on everything GM coach, quarterback,

126
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, and multiple draft picks.

127
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 2: They hit on everything.

128
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 1: It's still not a strong ownership group, but Houston's always

129
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 1: had money. It's a big city, and you know, they've

130
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 1: got money to spend, and they did on Stefan Diggs

131
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 1: and Joe Mixon. So they just have everything. I mean,

132
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 1: they've got everything. The coach, the corps, nators, the quarterback,

133
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 1: the left tackle, a run game, multiple weapons, a decent

134
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,039
Speaker 1: pass rush. I mean, tonight's pas rush was insane. You know,

135
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 1: let's be honest. This is what makes the NFL king.

136
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 1: Today was one of the craziest days I can ever remember.

137
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 1: Now Week three, if you go to the early window,

138
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 1: it's not great. This was an all timer early window day,

139
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 1: but I mean it's a crazy, crazy day. Mcvay's oh

140
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 1: and two John Harbaughs oh and two, Joe Burrows oh

141
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 1: and two. San Francisco got hammered today. That scores not indicative.

142
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 1: They got pushed all over the field. They were lucky.

143
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 1: It was that close. So and tonight I think Chicago's lucky.

144
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 3: It was that close.

145
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: I mean, if you want to, if you really want

146
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 1: to say something about Caleb Williams, he kept fighting. This

147
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 1: should have been a three touchdown game. It felt like,

148
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 1: I mean, how many quarterbacks. I mean, it was like

149
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 1: one of one beating in the NFL this year. I mean,

150
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: I know guys are sore on on Monday. I wouldn't

151
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 1: want to be Caleb Williams. You want to get in

152
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 1: that ice tub really quickly tomorrow. But for all of

153
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 1: Caleb williams elusiveness, the Bears only average three point three

154
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 1: yards of play. So, I mean, he's pretty magical athlete.

155
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 1: But I don't think the offensive line protection has been optimal.

156
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 1: And I also think Tom Brady's talked about this. I

157
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 1: think it comes in stages. Quarterbacking in the NFL comes

158
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 1: in stages. You know, the first year it's the learning curve,

159
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:37,200
Speaker 1: it's surviving. Year two it's growth. You know, the light

160
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 1: tends to come on. Second year at some point Thanksgiving,

161
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 1: Christmas somewhere around there, and then the third year you're

162
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 1: off and running. I think they're really good quarterbacks by

163
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 1: year two can audible their way out of some of

164
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 1: the pressures. You know, and I've said this, it's such

165
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 1: an advantage, you know, either having a strong offensive coordinator.

166
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 1: Jayden d Annials I think does in Washington he looked

167
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 1: better today and c J.

168
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 2: Stroud did.

169
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 1: I mean, look at Malik Willis today with Green Bay

170
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 1: and Matt Lafleur and that offensive staff. That was the

171
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 1: best Malik Willis has ever looked. So as Shane Walder

172
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 1: and the guy for Caleb Williams. The Bears have always

173
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 1: had a defensive culture. It's I mean, the best thing

174
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,440
Speaker 1: you can say is that Caleb Williams a big, strong

175
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 1: kid who moves well, and they're one on one. But

176
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 1: I mean, they have a long way to go. In Chicago,

177
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 1: there was all sorts of pre snap penalties and in

178
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 1: the first half they just they just don't look tight.

179
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,360
Speaker 1: And there were also a couple of plays, a couple

180
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 1: of throws by Kayleb Williams that are simply not going

181
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: to work in pro football, a couple of lollipop throws.

182
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 1: One of the lollipop throws, I think it was first half,

183
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: got picked. It may have an early second half first half,

184
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 1: got picked and a penalty against.

185
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 2: Houston and gated it.

186
00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 1: But it was just a throw you can't make in

187
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 1: the NFL. You know, when you're so gifted, you get

188
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,200
Speaker 1: away with so much in high school, in college that

189
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,080
Speaker 1: you just can't in the NFL. And I think Caleb's

190
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:13,200
Speaker 1: still trying to figure out what I can't do. Like

191
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,559
Speaker 1: he's not sliding. He did a couple of times late

192
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,319
Speaker 1: in the second half. He did a good job scrambling

193
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 1: and sliding, but he got popped on the sideline. That

194
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 1: was the punch moment. You can't take that hit, dude.

195
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 1: You got to get down, slide, do something. You can't

196
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,200
Speaker 1: take that hit. So I think he's still trying to

197
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 1: figure out. Caleb is what he can get away with

198
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:36,679
Speaker 1: in the NFL, And tonight not much of anything. All Right,

199
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: We're going to have a lively one here on Sunday.

200
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 1: John middlecoff Our Week two reaction, presented by Uber Eats

201
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 1: get almost almost anything for game day. Former NFL scout

202
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:51,079
Speaker 1: John Middlecoff, As we start today, Let's start Kansas City Cincinnati.

203
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 2: You know it's funny.

204
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:56,439
Speaker 1: I've argued this forever that Bill Parcells used to ride

205
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 1: Phil Simms, Phil throw it down the field. Okay, I'm

206
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,000
Speaker 1: not interested in you know, one interception.

207
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 2: No picks.

208
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 1: You know today Mahomes has two ugly picks, almost had three,

209
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 1: Borough has none, and Kansas City wins. And by the way,

210
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 1: in this opener against Baltimore, it was one of the

211
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 1: ugliest picks not named will Levis Mahomes against Baltimore. And

212
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,480
Speaker 1: it's funny about Kansas City is that, you know, we

213
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:23,839
Speaker 1: we think of Kansas City as so efficient, but they

214
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:27,160
Speaker 1: make a lot of mistakes. John, They are vulnerable. They

215
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 1: give you opportunities, but they're always usually good starting a

216
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,719
Speaker 1: game and finishing. In the middle of it, it can

217
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 1: get choppy, but once again late like against Baltimore, they

218
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,079
Speaker 1: finished Cincinnati off. I felt terrible for Cincinnati in a

219
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,840
Speaker 1: way because at one point in this game, they put

220
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,840
Speaker 1: up a graphic that the last six matchup between these

221
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,280
Speaker 1: two teams Bengals Chiefs, they'd eat scored one hundred and

222
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 1: fifty points.

223
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 2: Like it is so even.

224
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 1: But I guess my takeaway is Cincinnati can go toe

225
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 1: to toe with Kansas City forever. But Kansas City has

226
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,440
Speaker 1: this ability to start and end quickly, and they're a

227
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 1: flawed team right like they're I mean, when I watch them,

228
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 1: I think, God, they give you opportunities, don't they.

229
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, big picture, I don't know how Kansas City,

230
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 3: after winning back to back Super Bowls can take these

231
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 3: type games week in and week out without eventually run

232
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 3: out of juice. I mean, that felt like a playoff game,

233
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 3: didn't it. The intensity, the physicality that that was I

234
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,679
Speaker 3: had because the Arizona LA game ended so fast. I

235
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 3: mean I think it was over five minutes into the game.

236
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 3: The Steelers versus the Broncos on one TV and the Chiefs,

237
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,200
Speaker 3: it was like two different sports being played in those

238
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 3: two games. I do think, for whatever reason, that graphic

239
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:41,840
Speaker 3: kind of illustrated it. Cincinnati plays this team better than anyone.

240
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:43,920
Speaker 3: I mean, they've beat him in the playoffs. They went

241
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 3: toe to toe with him a couple of years ago,

242
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,200
Speaker 3: easily could have beat him again in the playoffs. Probably,

243
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,199
Speaker 3: you know they're gonna be kicking themselves. Should have won

244
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 3: this game. I hate to see the game decided on

245
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 3: a late penalty, Yeah, but it is what it is.

246
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,040
Speaker 3: I just think at the end of the day, the

247
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,440
Speaker 3: Chiefs culture completely flipped when they traded Tyreek Hill and

248
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 3: they have this physical kind of I mean, they're a

249
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 3: defensive team. I mean, Spac Doola is just brilliant. They

250
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,680
Speaker 3: are going through some growing pains starting a rookie left hack. Yeah,

251
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 3: I mean, because so many teams now you just watch

252
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 3: around the NFL, even the bad teams have pass rushers

253
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:20,079
Speaker 3: and they move him around. They're gonna put him over

254
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 3: that kid every single week. And Mahomes, luckily, he's a

255
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:28,120
Speaker 3: great scrambler. You know, Kelsey looks his age, he's no

256
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,320
Speaker 3: longer and he's kind of saving himself for the end

257
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 3: of the season. And they did that again last year.

258
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:35,199
Speaker 3: But god, he's no longer. I would say the week in,

259
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 3: week out dominant player.

260
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's funny.

261
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 1: I wrote down four plays three plays in this game

262
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 1: because I started. Really it was a close game, so

263
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm gonna write down the big plays.

264
00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:45,559
Speaker 2: In the fourth quarter.

265
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 1: Mahomes to Kelsey, huge gainer, third and six, trailing twenty five,

266
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 1: twenty three, Kansas City gets that spags blitz sack, late

267
00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: flag on Cincinnati. The three big plays to me, all

268
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,079
Speaker 1: went in Kansas City favor. They remind me a little

269
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,679
Speaker 1: bit like an old KG boxer, like Sugar Ray Leonard

270
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 1: out of his prime. They win the end of the round.

271
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 1: Like you get shots at him, you may knock them down.

272
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 1: It's not always aesthetically pleasing, but they kind of figure

273
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,960
Speaker 1: out how to manipulate the judges, manipulate the game. You

274
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 1: see this in the NBA with old teams. They did

275
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 1: just have a way of figuring out how to play

276
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 1: the game late. There there's an art to football at

277
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 1: the end of a game and using your timeouts and

278
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 1: field position that the Chiefs do not give you a

279
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 1: ten on out of ten performance, boy, but in the

280
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 1: big moments, John, that's where Kelsey's last year in the playoffs,

281
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 1: he was huge in the red zone, huge on third

282
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 1: or fourth down. And I think that's what they are.

283
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,440
Speaker 1: They they they as they go through growing pains, they're

284
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 1: still the great closing team in this sport.

285
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 3: Well, they're not as phased as much as remember two

286
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 3: years ago Mahomes went through an awful stretch where he

287
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 3: had a bunch of turnovers and they were playing bad.

288
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,400
Speaker 3: I think this was not last year, but two years ago,

289
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 3: and now they still have that happen. But their defense

290
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 3: is so good. Yeah, they're just such good open field tacklers.

291
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 3: I thought, also, you know, they don't mentally crack. They

292
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 3: ended up still kicking a field goal. But but Jamar

293
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 3: Chase freaking out about a hip drop. Bro, he grabbed

294
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 3: you by your shoulder pads and then he lets you down,

295
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 3: like relax. And Joe Burrow's known him forever as like

296
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 3: trying to come and he won't listen to anybody. And

297
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:26,080
Speaker 3: that kind of ultimately wasn't the difference in the game.

298
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 3: But that doesn't happen to Kansas City. If anything, they

299
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,200
Speaker 3: get the guy off the field. They're not giving up

300
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 3: fifteen free yards and let Andy or whoever yell at

301
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 3: each other. But they're not yelling at the ref.

302
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 2: And that's nope, that's right.

303
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 3: And that Jamar Chase, I mean besides Burrow and he

304
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 3: I mean, he's one of their best players, one of

305
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 3: the better players in the league. You cannot lose your

306
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 3: shit like that in that spot. It's really unacceptable. I

307
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 3: mean it really. Yeah.

308
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 1: I felt like Cincinnati sort of lost this game, not

309
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 1: that Kansas City didn't make plays.

310
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 2: They deserve it.

311
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 1: They're impossible to me to root against because I just

312
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 1: I really again, I liked old fighters and I liked

313
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 1: teams that are great in the clutch. There's a New

314
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 1: England quotient, Like you feel like sometimes do they have

315
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 1: the best players out here today?

316
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 3: Don't they feel like the Patriots the way they play now,

317
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 3: like that dynasty They didn't early on with Tyreek they

318
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 3: do not.

319
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 2: Yeah.

320
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 1: Like, at the bottom line is they're more physical, they

321
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 1: have a better coach, their quarterbacks better in crisis, and

322
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 1: they don't beat themselves now dramatically. They're much more fun

323
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 1: to watch, I think than New England was outside of

324
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 1: the Randy Moss years. Yeah, but it's very much best coach,

325
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 1: best quarterback, don't beat themselves a mother with two minutes

326
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 1: to go in the game, third downs, fourth downs, red zone.

327
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 1: They're just they're magic. And maybe that in the history

328
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 1: of football's always been the case with the best team.

329
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: But I thought Sincinnat Jamar Chase losing, they're cool giving

330
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 1: up the big sack, the pass interference late. You know again,

331
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 1: Casey deserved it. But Cincinnati in this spot, which Buffalo's

332
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 1: done against, this team, which Baltimore's done against, this team,

333
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 1: beat themselves.

334
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 3: This wouldn't be the end of the world for Cincinnati

335
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 3: to lose at Kansas City if they hadn't just blown

336
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 3: such an awful game. And I don't have I have

337
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 3: strong opinions on a lot of coaches. I'm kind of

338
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:07,879
Speaker 3: indifferent on Zach Taylor. I don't know much about him.

339
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:09,920
Speaker 3: I don't hear him talk that often. I don't hear

340
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:13,520
Speaker 3: bad things about him. People like the guy. He clearly

341
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,439
Speaker 3: has done a pretty good job over the course of

342
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:19,680
Speaker 3: his career. But you watch this performance and you go,

343
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 3: you should win the division. But you find yourself, oh,

344
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 3: in two, they don't get up for games. They obviously

345
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,960
Speaker 3: get up for Kansas City, But how do I take

346
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,159
Speaker 3: you seriously when you lose it home to the Patriots?

347
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 3: So are you know? They probably should win ten to

348
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:36,200
Speaker 3: eleven games if Burro's healthy. But you put yourself behind

349
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:37,359
Speaker 3: the eight ball all of a sudden you might be

350
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 3: struggling to get a wild cards.

351
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 1: Well, the good news is ravens row and two and

352
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 1: the Steelers. Over the course of a season. You know,

353
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 1: the Steelers have faced Kirk Cousins and then bow Knicks.

354
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 1: I mean, bo Nix is a kid. I mean, they're

355
00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:50,360
Speaker 1: just there's nothing you can see.

356
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 3: He was bad today. He was bad, and I have

357
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 3: money on him to win offensive rookie, he was atrocious.

358
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,359
Speaker 1: Now for a segment called making It Look Easy, brought

359
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:05,920
Speaker 1: to you by Morgan and Morgan, America's largest injury law firm. Today,

360
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 1: Sam Darnold made it look easy. Two hundred and sixty

361
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 1: eight yards two tds ran around and win against his

362
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:14,520
Speaker 1: former team, the Niners. Just like Sam made it look easy,

363
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 1: Morgan and Morgan makes it so easy to submit a claim.

364
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:20,200
Speaker 1: They have over one hundred offices nationwide, more than eight

365
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 1: hundred lawyers with over fifteen billion dollars recovered from over

366
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 1: three hundred thousand clients. Morgan and Morgan has a proven

367
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 1: track record of fighting to get you full and fair compensation.

368
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,479
Speaker 1: They've been fighting for the people for over thirty five years.

369
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 1: If you're ever injured, go to Fourthpeople dot com, slash Colin,

371
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 1: largest injury law firm. Winning in the NFL is hard,

372
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:55,280
Speaker 1: but hiring Morgan and Morgan is easy. Okay, I want

373
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,399
Speaker 1: to talk Cowboys Saints, so we all know coaching matters,

374
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:03,920
Speaker 1: but holy you give Derek Carr kubias kid, Gary Kubiak's

375
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 1: kid the coach the coordinator first of all, the motions,

376
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 1: the shifting, it's a totally different offense. I watched the

377
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 1: Jets Titans Nat Hackett's offense. I mean, Aaron's one of

378
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,880
Speaker 1: the smarter guys in the league. Playing quarterback. Very little motion,

379
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 1: very remedial, doesn't really challenge Aaron intellectually. Now, I think

380
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 1: the Saints have more talent outside of quarterback. They got

381
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 1: more players. But I'm watching the Saints offense against Dallas,

382
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 1: and we can blame Dallas, but they are moving all.

383
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:31,439
Speaker 2: Over the field.

384
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:36,040
Speaker 1: Jesus, It's just it's amazing what happens when you have

385
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:41,320
Speaker 1: a competent quarterback. I'm not asking for great baker Derek.

386
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:45,440
Speaker 1: You protect him and you have a coordinator who can

387
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:49,639
Speaker 1: change stuff up. And I'm watching the Saints today. They

388
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 1: average seven point seven yards a play. They were fifty

389
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 1: percent on third down. I mean, Derek Carr was only

390
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 1: what did I have here? Eleven of sixteen to the

391
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 1: never to the football. It was all motions, and it

392
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:07,840
Speaker 1: was like, that's when I buy into a team, when

393
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:11,159
Speaker 1: it's beyond it's not just that they're scoring. This coach,

394
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 1: this coordinator. It's a little like Detroit last year, though.

395
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 2: They're not as good.

396
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,919
Speaker 1: At some point, they're just going to score points if

397
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,080
Speaker 1: they play inside or in play in good weather. Your

398
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 1: thoughts on that game.

399
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,119
Speaker 3: Well, the MVP race right now is Derek Carr, Sam Darnold,

400
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,879
Speaker 3: and Baker Mayfield fighting it out, So I listen. I'm

401
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 3: probably dead wrong on the Broncos, but I pounded the

402
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,640
Speaker 3: drum leading into the start of the season on the Saints. Yeah,

403
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:38,359
Speaker 3: I liked him to win the division. I liked him

404
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 3: to make the playoffs. They went nine to eight last

405
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:43,119
Speaker 3: year and for half the season their offense was atrocious.

406
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 3: They have a good defense. They have a really good

407
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,439
Speaker 3: players the season. Yes, Dennis Allen, some of his stats

408
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 3: against the spread and stuff, I get it. But defensively,

409
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 3: everyone in the NFL sings his praises. He's good. Kubiak,

410
00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 3: the Shanahans and Kubiak might as well be one family, right,

411
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:04,160
Speaker 3: Gary played for Mike than Kyle worked for Gary. One

412
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,920
Speaker 3: of the Kubiaks now works for Kyle. They're all one

413
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,160
Speaker 3: in the same. That offense does two things well, makes

414
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 3: it easy on the quarterbacks and features the running back. Well,

415
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 3: no team has more invested in the running back room

416
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 3: than the Saints and Alvin Kamara is an excellent player,

417
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,640
Speaker 3: and he's perfect for this scheme. Why he can he's

418
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 3: a good zone runner and he's an excellent pass catcher.

419
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,400
Speaker 3: What does that offense like to do? Throw the ball

420
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:29,120
Speaker 3: to the a lot?

421
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 1: Like why McCaffrey is so unbelievable with San Francisco, it's

422
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:32,880
Speaker 1: the same.

423
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:36,719
Speaker 3: They're very similar players. They were Christians a little more physical,

424
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:39,399
Speaker 3: I would say between the tackles. But Alvin Kamara, when

425
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 3: he's right, is a Pro Bowl level guy, and today

426
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:43,480
Speaker 3: he was. I would imagine he's the offensive player of

427
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:45,840
Speaker 3: the week. I mean, I think he had seventeen touchdowns today.

428
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,680
Speaker 3: But Kubiak, and you never know because when these guys

429
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,120
Speaker 3: work for McVeigh, when they work for Sean Payton, when

430
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 3: they work for Kyle, they don't actually call the plays.

431
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 3: But like when you tell me, his name's Kubiak, so yeah,

432
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,400
Speaker 3: I would imagine he's gonna know the offense pretty well.

433
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:02,360
Speaker 3: He's been Brilliant's someone that covers the Saints today tweeted

434
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 3: like he might get a head coaching job before the

435
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,720
Speaker 3: season's even over. I mean, he has been. Their defense

436
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:09,720
Speaker 3: was awesome. The Cowboys didn't have a shot today and

437
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,320
Speaker 3: Obviously Dak throws a couple bad picks, but that's just

438
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:16,159
Speaker 3: they ran into a bus saw and when Derek, like

439
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 3: Derek has had a really no one dealt with more instability.

440
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 3: For the first nine years of his career, the team

441
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 3: literally moved, yet they stayed in a spot. They ran

442
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:28,440
Speaker 3: through coaches, they had the Gruden situation. Derek has seen

443
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 3: a lot of shit and by the end of the

444
00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:33,880
Speaker 3: year last year he looked pretty good. And now the offense,

445
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,920
Speaker 3: they have good wide receivers, they have a good running game.

446
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 3: They drafted uh, I think the tackle for Morgan State,

447
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 3: who literally could play all five positions. So they're just

448
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,920
Speaker 3: right now they are to me, the Bucks are good too.

449
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 3: Like that division, I think most people just took a

450
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:51,879
Speaker 3: giant dump on like it sucks. Actually, they got two

451
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,399
Speaker 3: pretty good teams and two quarterbacks who if you just

452
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,160
Speaker 3: that have a lot of talent around him, can play well.

453
00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,640
Speaker 3: That the Saints I liked him a lot.

454
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 1: They've been Yeah, And I also think if you consider

455
00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 1: Derek Carr a B to a B plus quarterback, which

456
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:08,119
Speaker 1: I think Baker is, which I think Gino's closer to

457
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,879
Speaker 1: B B minus. But if you look at the Saints

458
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 1: roster between I think Jeff Ireland and Mickey Loomis are

459
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 1: the two guys running personnel. They don't miss in a

460
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:19,920
Speaker 1: lot of draft picks. John, if you start writing, I

461
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,359
Speaker 1: mean Tomorrio Davis is one of the best linebackers.

462
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 2: In the game.

463
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,360
Speaker 1: Oh fantastic, Yeah, I mean he's a thumper. They got

464
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 1: eight to ten Pro Bowl level players. We just know

465
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 1: the Niners players right like they're such a national team.

466
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 1: The Saints aren't. They're wildly popular in Louisiana, big in

467
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: the South, but Breeze leaves, you know who's Dennis Allen.

468
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 1: They're not a big national team anymore. You watch that

469
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,200
Speaker 1: game against Dallas. To me, that wasn't about the Cowboys.

470
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 1: It was about the on line. Camara the play call again,

471
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 1: Derek Carr was six to thirteen on third downs. He

472
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,159
Speaker 1: didn't throw the ball, They didn't ask him to do anything.

473
00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:00,359
Speaker 1: It was it's very brock pretty. It's a really easyft

474
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 1: when you're throwing on second and four and third and one.

475
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:07,239
Speaker 3: The other thing is they have some more similarities than

476
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,400
Speaker 3: people would realize. With the Steelers. Over the last couple

477
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 3: of years, quarterback play has been really atrocious. If you

478
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,679
Speaker 3: get good quarterback play, and you have a good defense,

479
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 3: and you have some skill guys, like, you're gonna be

480
00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:19,920
Speaker 3: pretty good. And like the other thing they have going

481
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 3: for him is they get two cupcake games against the Panthers.

482
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 3: Those are two wins. They're gonna be confident playing Atlanta

483
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 3: and Tampa just because they play them all the time.

484
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 3: I feel even stronger, Like I'm not saying this is

485
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,679
Speaker 3: a super Bowl team, but like, if Derek stays healthy,

486
00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,200
Speaker 3: that team can't win twelve games. I mean they got

487
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 3: high end players at a lot of key position. That

488
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,919
Speaker 3: was today because you never know when you beat the

489
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,240
Speaker 3: crap out of an awful team. And I like them today.

490
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:48,840
Speaker 3: I liked them a lot plus six. I thought that

491
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,719
Speaker 3: number was a pretty crazy. They came out today like

492
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 3: they were going to the Super Bowl. Did they not

493
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,000
Speaker 3: like that? They was over quick.

494
00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:00,399
Speaker 1: I'll tell you the wise guys love Dallas. Dallas in

495
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 1: the regular season is an unbelievable home favorite. They are

496
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:09,159
Speaker 1: very much Tyson in his prime. They can lose to somebody,

497
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,639
Speaker 1: they can lose to an off holy Field or on Lennox,

498
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,120
Speaker 1: but you put him as a favorite. They knock out

499
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 1: like Dallas is one right home team against against usually.

500
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,080
Speaker 1: I mean, the Saints don't beat good teams. The last

501
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,360
Speaker 1: three years they crushed Dallas.

502
00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:25,400
Speaker 3: I mean, I think Kubiak has thrown his hat into

503
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 3: the ring really really quick as a guy that's obviously

504
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 3: now on everyone's radar. The one thing is when you

505
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:33,680
Speaker 3: play Zimmer, he's gonna blitz a lot. And it happened

506
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 3: to Kyle to day with Flores, who's very similar. If

507
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 3: you call the right play on the blitz, you're gonna

508
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 3: get a huge explosive play, and that happened over and

509
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 3: over early in that game. And then at Snowball we're

510
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:45,840
Speaker 3: on the opposite side with the forty nine ers. He

511
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:47,520
Speaker 3: was hitting the blitz, but they were getting home and

512
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:51,119
Speaker 3: stacking the quarterback and they didn't hit the play. But Kubiak,

513
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:53,359
Speaker 3: I mean, we're only two weeks in, but he's an

514
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 3: early front runner for Assistem of the Year right now.

515
00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:58,400
Speaker 3: That's for damn sure, let's talk Niners.

516
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 1: You know him well. My favorite out of the week

517
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 1: was Minnesota at home getting points. I think Kevin O'Connell

518
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,120
Speaker 1: is I said this last week, he's Kevin Stefanski. Before

519
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,800
Speaker 1: everybody realized how good Stefanski was dealing with all that

520
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:12,440
Speaker 1: Cleveland nonsense, and he just continues to put out good

521
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 1: game plans. Again, they didn't ask a ton of Darnold

522
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,720
Speaker 1: seventeen to twenty six, two hundred and seventy yards. He

523
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,920
Speaker 1: had five rushes. You know, Fred Warner made a great

524
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 1: play because he's Fred Warner on an interception like that's

525
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 1: not a great interception, but again it Fred, You know

526
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,440
Speaker 1: that that wouldn't have been picked off by ninety five

527
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 1: percent of the linebackers.

528
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 2: In the league.

529
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:32,639
Speaker 3: Might be the only guy, but yeah, I.

530
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:34,640
Speaker 1: Mean it was a great play. But what I looked

531
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 1: at was the time of possession thirty five minutes to

532
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:40,360
Speaker 1: twenty five. Minnesota controlled the football. I mean it could

533
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 1: have been how if you take away the fumble by

534
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:47,920
Speaker 1: Minnesota and the great Fred Warner picked John this could

535
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 1: have been a blowout. It could have been a blood

536
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 1: bath Niners.

537
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 3: He got worked work, I mean they got killed ky

538
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:56,359
Speaker 3: Cat that was and he has one or two of

539
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 3: these a year. I mean, it was a bad rough

540
00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 3: day for Kyle Special teams. They had a punt block.

541
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 3: Flores was taking him to the woodshed, getting free guys

542
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 3: all over. Py Perty had a bad pick, could have

543
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 3: probably thrown another one. Defensively, they had some herors, But

544
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,080
Speaker 3: the story of the game and one of the stories

545
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 3: of the early year sam Donold. I mean that throw

546
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,679
Speaker 3: he made the touchdown Jesus to Justin Jefferson, I mean

547
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 3: is seventy yards in the air. I mean you see

548
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,440
Speaker 3: the arm strength, but the accuracy, and you think back

549
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,879
Speaker 3: to the Fred Warner play. I think those are the

550
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,600
Speaker 3: plays early on in his career where he just kind

551
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:31,440
Speaker 3: of melts yes, and to me, whatever happened last year

552
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 3: with Kyle and they talked about it with Purdy, the

553
00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:36,040
Speaker 3: maturation of just learning how to study. He just kind

554
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:37,840
Speaker 3: of feels like a different guy. And I think we

555
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:41,680
Speaker 3: have an example with Baker Mayfield. Some people mature at

556
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 3: slower rates, whether it be football wise or personally and physically.

557
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,680
Speaker 3: His talent, obviously, the touchdown to Jefferson is going to

558
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:51,080
Speaker 3: be all over social media. He made some other throws

559
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,639
Speaker 3: on third down that were just like, I mean, he

560
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:55,840
Speaker 3: was slicing it that he was the better quarterback on

561
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 3: the field today. He was awesome. And then there was

562
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 3: another play his second touchdown while it was wide open.

563
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,159
Speaker 3: Those are plays maybe early in his career. Maybe he

564
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 3: air mails, maybe he freaks out. Like he just feels very,

565
00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:11,400
Speaker 3: very under control. And I didn't think the Vikings were

566
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:13,359
Speaker 3: gonna be very good, even though I thought it would

567
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,200
Speaker 3: probably go pretty well for him. You start two to zero,

568
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, there's a path for you to

569
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,960
Speaker 3: get to nine ten wins. I mean, this is and

570
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 3: that home field advantage, right, you'd have to say that

571
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 3: Minnesota has one of the better ones in the league.

572
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,680
Speaker 3: And that's like you said, that wasn't just a win.

573
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,400
Speaker 3: You're playing the Niners, who's coming off a short week.

574
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:34,080
Speaker 3: That wasn't ass cask kicking.

575
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 1: I mean, if you don't get that fumble. And again

576
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:39,960
Speaker 1: I mean Fred Warner made a great pick and a

577
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 1: big hit causes a fumble. But this this could have

578
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 1: been a three touchdown blowout.

579
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,280
Speaker 3: The score does not reflect at all.

580
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 1: I mean, the time of possession is insane. And I

581
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:53,720
Speaker 1: also think it's funny with Darnold. You mentioned he's under control.

582
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: What's interesting when I watched Sam, it feels like he

583
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 1: sped his delivery up. Yet he's more under control, if

584
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,959
Speaker 1: that makes any sense. So his feet aren't nervous, his

585
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 1: body's great, but it feels like O'Connell, who was a

586
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:10,480
Speaker 1: quarterback in the league. They've you know, the knock on

587
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 1: him all with Steve Kaim told me on Friday on

588
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 1: FS one, I said, did you like Darnold coming out?

589
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 2: And he goes, I didn't.

590
00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:17,880
Speaker 1: I didn't really like him. I didn't like his mechanics.

591
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:21,520
Speaker 1: He was too slow. Totally fair criticism. And Sam's a

592
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 1: playmaker like Mahomes. He's gonna throw bad picks. All these

593
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 1: guys that run around throw bad picks. I mean, Jesus

594
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 1: Mahomes has two or three terrible picks this year. I

595
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,800
Speaker 1: can live with it. But Sam also five six different

596
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:40,960
Speaker 1: times takes off. And what Sam's also done. I think

597
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 1: he's sped his he sped his delivery up a little bit.

598
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 1: His feet are under control.

599
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 2: But I think.

600
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:49,239
Speaker 1: O'Connell gives him. And I've heard guys talk about this,

601
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:55,920
Speaker 1: Matt Hasselbeck talks about this. Sam looks like O'Connell gives

602
00:29:55,960 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 1: him clear things like he drops and he immediately is

603
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 1: staring down a second later staring down or to play.

604
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:06,959
Speaker 1: His head's not moving all over the place. I feel

605
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 1: like he's really intentional. I guess that's the way to

606
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 1: say it like, I don't feel like he's out of control.

607
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,640
Speaker 1: Even if he moves in the pocket, he feels in control.

608
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:17,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, they mentioned this on the broadcast. He much has

609
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:20,040
Speaker 3: said to them that one thing he did last year

610
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,200
Speaker 3: and he's carried in this year is tying his feet

611
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 3: with his upper body because clearly that was really out

612
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 3: of whack. And that's where you get throwing. You know,

613
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 3: you get to throw a lot of picks. Like, It's

614
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 3: one thing Mahomes is brilliant at. Despite him kind of

615
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 3: moving all over the place, he can always set himself

616
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,200
Speaker 3: when he needs to make it throw. It's why he's

617
00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,840
Speaker 3: pretty accurate going to his left, going to his right.

618
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 3: And like you said, Sam is a playmaker because he

619
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 3: has a massive arm. But if you can one problem

620
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:48,719
Speaker 3: was early in his career he couldn't hit layups. Yeah, Like,

621
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,360
Speaker 3: I'm sure we'll talk about Anthony Richardson. If you can't

622
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 3: do the basic stuff, you have no chance cause you're

623
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 3: only going to hit the occasional sweet sixty yard bomb.

624
00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 3: You have to hit second and set in the out route,

625
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,239
Speaker 3: hit the guy and stride to move the chains. And

626
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:05,600
Speaker 3: that's what Sam did all day to day. And he

627
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,120
Speaker 3: did last week against the Giants. I mean, he's he

628
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 3: looks like a really solid player who's gonna start in

629
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 3: this league. For a while, I had the thought today, like,

630
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 3: if he's gonna play like this all year? I know,

631
00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:19,240
Speaker 3: you just invested in a player, but you just let

632
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 3: this guy walk if he's gonna play at this level.

633
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 3: It's one thing to do it against the Giants, it's

634
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,680
Speaker 3: another thing to light up the forty nine ers like

635
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:28,720
Speaker 3: a Christmas tree. So if he does this as the

636
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:32,200
Speaker 3: season goes on to the Lions, the Packers, I do,

637
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:34,880
Speaker 3: it's not just like you just let him walk, And

638
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 3: that's not usually the way the NFL works. You kind

639
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:38,720
Speaker 3: of deal with what you got and you just kind

640
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 3: of ride it and figure it out later. Yeah.

641
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,800
Speaker 1: It's interesting for the Niners too, because the Rams got dusted.

642
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 1: Good coaches and quarterbacks who get humiliated almost always play

643
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:50,200
Speaker 1: well the following well weak and the Rams get their

644
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 1: left tackle back, which was a huge problem. And I

645
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 1: don't know his bowl. I don't know Bosa's situation physically. Now,

646
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 1: McCaffrey's go.

647
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 3: He was fine. I think he's okay, he'll.

648
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,080
Speaker 1: Be fine, So it'll probably be a Niners win. But

649
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:01,080
Speaker 1: you know the scheduling.

650
00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:02,000
Speaker 2: You know, we don't.

651
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,920
Speaker 1: You and I take scheduling very seriously. You look, you

652
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 1: looked at Minnesota schedule in the first six weeks, You're like,

653
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 1: oh my god, they can go one six. Now you're

654
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:12,480
Speaker 1: two and zero. Shit, if you go three and three

655
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 1: the back in the middle of that schedule for Minnesota,

656
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 1: Detroit doesn't look nearly as good Chicago. You know, we

657
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 1: don't know what we're getting. I want to talk to

658
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 1: Troit Tampa. So you know, there's the old saying in

659
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 1: almost every industry strike when the iron's hot. So Ben

660
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 1: Johnson Lions OC is the hottest guy in the lake.

661
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 1: I've watched them back to back weeks. Second half last week,

662
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 1: they weren't very good against Tampa. Jared Goff through fifty

663
00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 1: five times and Tampa had injuries in the back end

664
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 1: of their defense. I'm watching them, and I'm like, I mean,

665
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,400
Speaker 1: Detroit had an edge in first downs, in time of possession,

666
00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 1: and yet something's missing, like golf should not be throwing

667
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 1: fifty five a game with an average secondary. That was

668
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:04,720
Speaker 1: my take on it.

669
00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:06,600
Speaker 3: To me. One thing that stood out in that game

670
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:11,200
Speaker 3: when you watch the two quarterbacks, Baker's not Lamar Jackson,

671
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 3: but he can move. Golf cannot so when you start

672
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 3: hitting golf, it really rattles them and throws them off.

673
00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:19,360
Speaker 3: And that happened today and balls were flying all over

674
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,440
Speaker 3: the place, a couple awful picks over the middle of

675
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 3: the field. He can't add lib like one thing, Donald

676
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 3: like watching Donald and perty like. Those guys can move

677
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 3: and keep him play alive. Jared Goff cannot. So if

678
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:31,480
Speaker 3: it is not there, and it's not there fast. The

679
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,640
Speaker 3: other thing is I gotta give this guy credit. Now

680
00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 3: he's he had a good year last year, won a

681
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 3: playoff game, and now he's having a good start. Todd

682
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 3: Bowles is an excellent defensive coordinator, I mean excellent. So

683
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 3: when you look at that game, you just go Todd Bowles,

684
00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 3: who's just as a defensive coordinator, non head coach, he

685
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,200
Speaker 3: might be the best in the league. Against Ben Johnson.

686
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 3: I think the thing with Ben Johnson big picture. He

687
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 3: turned a lot of people off last year, Yes, and

688
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:57,080
Speaker 3: the word out, the way he handled things. Listen, if

689
00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 3: you don't want to leave, you don't want to leave.

690
00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:00,960
Speaker 3: But he calls them as their flying into him. It's

691
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:04,320
Speaker 3: been bizarre the ways that's happened. I still think their

692
00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 3: talent on offense is so immense that it's going to

693
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 3: be hard for that over the course of the season.

694
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:12,640
Speaker 3: Because Jamison Williams had a big play today, you have

695
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,080
Speaker 3: that to go. Saint Brown gets banged up a lot.

696
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,080
Speaker 3: You watch the Lions and there's a lot of times

697
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:18,839
Speaker 3: where he's coming up you're like to hear his knee.

698
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,319
Speaker 3: He hurt his hip. But they got two good running backs,

699
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,760
Speaker 3: their offensive line. They should not be struggling to score points.

700
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:28,279
Speaker 3: But credit to Tampa. I watched Tampa and go well.

701
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:30,879
Speaker 3: Baker's playing well, and Godwin and Evans are as good

702
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:33,120
Speaker 3: of a one to two combination. We got one guy's

703
00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 3: go to the Hall of Fame, and Godwin asked Tom

704
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 3: Brady about him and he loves a freaking guy. They

705
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:38,920
Speaker 3: look good college. You know.

706
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:42,400
Speaker 1: The other thing the golf lack of mobility. And I

707
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:44,920
Speaker 1: like Jared a lot, but if you if you go

708
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 1: to the big games in this league, that mobility thing

709
00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:54,280
Speaker 1: is why Mahomes is hoisting trophies. He had a forty

710
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 1: five yard run in last year's Super Bowl. If you

711
00:34:56,560 --> 00:35:02,160
Speaker 1: look at Jalen Hurbs, Allen Mahomes, the mobility thing's not

712
00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:05,160
Speaker 1: a small thing. Now, Kyler was off the freaking rails today.

713
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 2: Oh Jesus, it.

714
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,040
Speaker 3: Just insane, best game of his life.

715
00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, but the golf thing isn't a small thing. Is

716
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,680
Speaker 1: that when you get into these second half, so the

717
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:16,000
Speaker 1: first half is almost.

718
00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 3: Cousins is the same, Right, they can't move, they're sitting down.

719
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,719
Speaker 1: So you get into these situations, your first half is

720
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,120
Speaker 1: largely the first couple of drives are on script. Maybe

721
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:28,040
Speaker 1: your third even a bit. Second half is not. It's

722
00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:31,400
Speaker 1: not just a little thing to say GoF is incapable

723
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:35,800
Speaker 1: of moving. Because this staff's best coaches are on offense.

724
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 1: It's not like Belichick, where Belichick was literally just giving

725
00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:42,320
Speaker 1: Tom Field position turnovers in six So Detroit's going to

726
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:44,880
Speaker 1: score their way to championships. They're going to be in

727
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,000
Speaker 1: these shootouts. Well, you're not gonna throw for four touchdowns

728
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 1: in big games. So one of the things that I

729
00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 1: took away I wrote in my notes today, Aaron Rodgers

730
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:58,240
Speaker 1: is no longer mobile. It completely reduces the Jets offense,

731
00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:00,719
Speaker 1: which we'll get to next. But Goff's in ability to move.

732
00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:05,680
Speaker 1: I also wrote this down Baker. Now, I don't know

733
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:09,160
Speaker 1: if he lost a little weight. I know Lamar lost weight.

734
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 3: He did. I think he did it last year that

735
00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:11,160
Speaker 3: he talked about.

736
00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:13,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I think Baker's moving better than he's

737
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 1: ever moved in his career.

738
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:20,360
Speaker 3: Dramatically. I think just thinking about Goff that game that

739
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 3: we just witnessed Cincy, and can't set how often how

740
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:26,479
Speaker 3: often those two guys had to scramble to keep plays

741
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 3: absolutely And Mahome's probably a little bit better athlete than Joe,

742
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 3: but Joe can move fine. Jared Goff and Kirk Cousins

743
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:37,000
Speaker 3: fall under this category of they're not like the elite

744
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:40,879
Speaker 3: old school pocket quarterbacks, but when they are, you know,

745
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 3: they do have time, they can look really good, but

746
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:46,920
Speaker 3: it does have to be perfect. And every defensive coordinator

747
00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:49,719
Speaker 3: hit the guy early and it throws him off. And

748
00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 3: GoF got hit early and he just skipping balls. He

749
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:56,920
Speaker 3: was just off and he cannot be He physically is

750
00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:59,799
Speaker 3: incapable at the NFL level to move around and keep

751
00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 3: it play alive because once the play doesn't hit right away,

752
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:07,399
Speaker 3: they either block for an extra couple seconds or they're

753
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:10,200
Speaker 3: just screwed. And Cousins falls under the same category. Those

754
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:13,839
Speaker 3: players don't really exist anymore. Colin. All the good quarterbacks,

755
00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:17,800
Speaker 3: they all can move, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, Justin, Herbert Mahomes,

756
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 3: Burrow Purdy, Jalen Hurst. Mobility is a big part of

757
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:25,640
Speaker 3: them because half these plays. These defenders, I mean a

758
00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:29,040
Speaker 3: top of millionaires on that side, defensive coordinators making a lot.

759
00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:31,200
Speaker 3: You have to be able to keep plays alive. He

760
00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:33,799
Speaker 3: just cannot. Now. I like him better than Cousins, and

761
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 3: I like his team better. But you saw today like

762
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,840
Speaker 3: that's like the reason maybe the Lions can't win a

763
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:42,160
Speaker 3: Super Bowl is, like, you face enough good defens is,

764
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 3: you're gonna be in trouble because he gets thrown off.

765
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:48,000
Speaker 3: He looks like a different player than when he's really humming.

766
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,479
Speaker 1: It's time for this week's player I thought might give

767
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 1: you almost almost anything to redo his game, brought to

768
00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 1: you by Uber Eats. This week it's Will Levis again,

769
00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 1: who had an even uglier turnover than last week. Five

770
00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:06,400
Speaker 1: turnovers for Will Levis. Already through two games, the Titans

771
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:09,360
Speaker 1: are zero and two. That was this week's Uber Eats

772
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:13,239
Speaker 1: Player of the Week. Get almost almost anything for game day,

773
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:18,280
Speaker 1: delivered with Uber Eats, the official on demand delivery partner

774
00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:27,640
Speaker 1: of the NFL uber eats order. Now I want to

775
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:31,239
Speaker 1: talk Jets Tennessee. So the notes I wrote down. You know,

776
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 1: I remember hearing years ago that Aaron Rogers didn't love

777
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:37,120
Speaker 1: a lot of motion. He didn't like his screwing around.

778
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:39,960
Speaker 1: Aaron liked to go to the line, do a motion,

779
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:42,799
Speaker 1: don't don't try to trick people. Just let me see

780
00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:44,440
Speaker 1: the defense and where I can go. And that was

781
00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:48,240
Speaker 1: and I've heard that on more than one occasion with Aaron.

782
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:51,520
Speaker 1: He wasn't a huge fan of all the moment, you know,

783
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,560
Speaker 1: the movement, the jumbo sets, the trickery. Just let me

784
00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 1: get to the line, let me look around, let me

785
00:38:56,680 --> 00:39:00,560
Speaker 1: see the guys that I can attack. But that doesn't

786
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:02,640
Speaker 1: mean you're not going to have some I mean you

787
00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:05,600
Speaker 1: will watch the Saints and the Niners. Kevin O'Connell's teams.

788
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:09,120
Speaker 1: They're really smart teams. Mike McDaniel. Shit, they're moving constantly.

789
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:13,280
Speaker 1: The motion percentages are through the roof. The Jets offense

790
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:16,839
Speaker 1: that get plays in late there's very little motion. It's

791
00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:20,440
Speaker 1: it doesn't challenge Aaron at all. Now, Breese Hall made

792
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:23,080
Speaker 1: a hell of a catch in the end zone. But

793
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:25,920
Speaker 1: the tight thing about this with Will Levis, who may

794
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 1: have the worst judgment of any quarterback I've ever seen.

795
00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 1: The Titans had more yards, more passing yards, more first downs,

796
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:36,400
Speaker 1: and fewer punts than the Jets. In the timeout we're talking.

797
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 1: Aaron's a top ten quarterback, Will Levis maybe the worst.

798
00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:43,880
Speaker 1: How is that possible? And my takeaway is because I

799
00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:47,759
Speaker 1: think the better coaching on the offensive side is you

800
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,600
Speaker 1: know it is the Callahans, But I'm watching the Jets

801
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:52,520
Speaker 1: and you know, they won, and I thought they'd win

802
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:55,880
Speaker 1: more comfortably. But God, John, I mean, you were a

803
00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 1: scout in this league. The Jets offense is just put

804
00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:01,360
Speaker 1: it in Aaron's hands, try to get it to Garrett

805
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,840
Speaker 1: or Breeze. It doesn't fool anybody.

806
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:07,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I text you after last week and

807
00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:10,880
Speaker 3: everyone's like, can't overreact or playing the Niners. Well, we

808
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:12,880
Speaker 3: hadn't seen Aaron Rodgers because we didn't see him in

809
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:16,719
Speaker 3: the preseason. You talk about movement, He's Jared Goff Kirk

810
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,799
Speaker 3: Cousins with a much better arm, and a huge part

811
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:22,719
Speaker 3: of his brilliance over his career was he's probably the

812
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,360
Speaker 3: greatest behind the line of scrimmage scramble thrower in the

813
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:28,400
Speaker 3: history of the league and that is done. Yeah, so

814
00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:31,160
Speaker 3: he is. He's Jared Goff with a stronger arm now,

815
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 3: but he doesn't have a great offensive cornwall and their personnel.

816
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:38,200
Speaker 3: They have one wide receiver. So what happened today, Well,

817
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:40,800
Speaker 3: the Titans traded and paid Snead a lot of money,

818
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:43,719
Speaker 3: neutralized Garrett Wilson a little bit. Now they got two

819
00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:46,600
Speaker 3: players on offense, a running back in a wide receiver.

820
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,000
Speaker 3: This is not like they don't have a sweet tight end.

821
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:52,000
Speaker 3: They don't have a deep wide receiver room. How many

822
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:54,279
Speaker 3: guys do they lose day on defense? Jermaine Johnson. We

823
00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:57,560
Speaker 3: pass rusher got carted off the field, Mosley got hurt,

824
00:40:57,600 --> 00:41:00,480
Speaker 3: he didn't come back. Hassan Reddick is already giving up

825
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,120
Speaker 3: one of the worst business decisions in the history of

826
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:05,040
Speaker 3: the world. Eight million dollars just hasn't shown up. So

827
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:07,919
Speaker 3: like you can, Soli can say all he wants out

828
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:10,680
Speaker 3: of sight, out of mind, you're missing that player. Yeah,

829
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,759
Speaker 3: so their defense isn't nearly as good as it has

830
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 3: been the last couple of years. And then you factor in, Yeah,

831
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:20,200
Speaker 3: Rogers is an upgrade over their quarterback play. Zach Wilson.

832
00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:21,879
Speaker 3: Whoever the hell they've been rolling out for the last

833
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:25,440
Speaker 3: two years. But relative to what they traded for, he's

834
00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:28,399
Speaker 3: to me a shell of himself. This notion that like, oh,

835
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:30,400
Speaker 3: he still throws a great ball. If me and you

836
00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:32,839
Speaker 3: took Dan Marino out to a high school field right now,

837
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:35,720
Speaker 3: Dan Marino would throw a beautiful spiral, right Aaron Rodgers

838
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:38,799
Speaker 3: is gonna throw a beautiful spiral into a seventies. What

839
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:41,400
Speaker 3: made him an elite player or a high end player

840
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:45,160
Speaker 3: was the athleticism combined with the accuracy and the arms set.

841
00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:49,479
Speaker 3: The athleticism. Now his movement he feels like more Ridgie doesn't.

842
00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:51,960
Speaker 3: He's just looking at and he knows it. He's he

843
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,840
Speaker 3: knows he can't run, he's not trying to run. He

844
00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:58,640
Speaker 3: looks like a different player still relative for them upgrade. Yeah,

845
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:01,240
Speaker 3: but I don't view the Jets is a playoff team

846
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:04,239
Speaker 3: at all, Colin. I mean, I think things have to

847
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 3: go so perfectly. They've already got injuries with guys that

848
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,480
Speaker 3: haven't even been injured before. So what happens when they're injured.

849
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:11,280
Speaker 3: Guys get injured.

850
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,359
Speaker 1: I said this before the season. I said, folks, if

851
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:16,839
Speaker 1: Bryce Hall twists an ankle, just roll your coverage over

852
00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:20,799
Speaker 1: Garre at Wilson. Aaron doesn't move. He's now ten and

853
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,440
Speaker 1: eleven in his last twenty one games, and that that

854
00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:27,360
Speaker 1: game was more about Will Levis. I mean again, Titans

855
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 1: had more passing yards, more first downs, fewer punts. That

856
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:33,040
Speaker 1: is the worst quarterback in the league.

857
00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:36,440
Speaker 3: You know, he's given away literally two games and no question,

858
00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:39,640
Speaker 3: I mean two games. Their defense, I'm Titans defense just

859
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:41,600
Speaker 3: watching football these last couple of weeks has been one

860
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:45,440
Speaker 3: of the better units. They have been fantastic. And Will Levis,

861
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:47,759
Speaker 3: you were on this a long time ago. Other people

862
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,279
Speaker 3: have jumped on the bandwagon. I think everyone You're not

863
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:53,239
Speaker 3: gonna find a supporter, probably including his coach today. That

864
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:55,280
Speaker 3: was he was screaming at him when he had that turnover.

865
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:57,960
Speaker 3: Just it's unheard of. I mean, it's like high school

866
00:42:58,000 --> 00:42:58,520
Speaker 3: level turnot.

867
00:42:58,560 --> 00:42:59,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what it is.

868
00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:04,120
Speaker 1: So I called I called somebody in the NFL as

869
00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:08,680
Speaker 1: a coach who's since been let go, and somebody I've

870
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 1: been friends with for five or six years. And I

871
00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 1: called him and I said, all right. I texted him,

872
00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:17,439
Speaker 1: I said, hey, can we I got some questions about

873
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:20,719
Speaker 1: a couple of guys, and so we talked, and.

874
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:24,040
Speaker 2: You know, he knows I love football, and he.

875
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:26,480
Speaker 1: Asked me about a couple of guys, and he asked

876
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:30,000
Speaker 1: me about Will Levis, and I said, it really worries me.

877
00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:34,200
Speaker 2: I just see narcissism. I see I see kind of

878
00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:34,600
Speaker 2: a guy.

879
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:39,279
Speaker 1: You know, the gun show at the you know, at

880
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:46,439
Speaker 1: Combine and both those last two games. And I'll kind

881
00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:50,280
Speaker 1: of wedge this in. He's made mistakes that a selfish

882
00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:55,360
Speaker 1: player would make. He has made egregiously bad plays with

883
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:59,920
Speaker 1: certain different times. Not just those two, but he's made

884
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:03,880
Speaker 1: several players where it's like, dude, protect your team in

885
00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:08,920
Speaker 1: this spot. The Chicago pick is egregious. Protect your team.

886
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:12,560
Speaker 1: Will's into Will. Will loves his arm, Will love the

887
00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:15,399
Speaker 1: way look the head bend. He's cool. I get it.

888
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:20,960
Speaker 1: Confidence matters. But there are times in this league game

889
00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:26,080
Speaker 1: managing Tom Brady managed a lot of leads, he managed

890
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:29,400
Speaker 1: a lot of moments. Will gets into these and it's like,

891
00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:32,399
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make a play. It's like, bro, Bro, you're

892
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:36,239
Speaker 1: tied fourth quarter with Aaron Rodgers. This is a winnable

893
00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:39,080
Speaker 1: game now. And I just over the course of a game,

894
00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:42,200
Speaker 1: he really reminds me of Jay Cutler, and Jay Cutler

895
00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:43,839
Speaker 1: was a guy that was never liked in the room.

896
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:46,640
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. We can criticize him. People in the room

897
00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:50,200
Speaker 1: like Aaron, people out may not. I think Will Levis

898
00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:52,240
Speaker 1: could lose a locker room really fast.

899
00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:55,080
Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't even know who their backup is, but

900
00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,440
Speaker 3: I mean, to me, you could mention him immediately. I mean,

901
00:44:57,480 --> 00:45:00,120
Speaker 3: it's I hear that Jay Cutler just kind of the

902
00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:02,839
Speaker 3: reckless nature. Jay Cutler was in a different universe as

903
00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:04,960
Speaker 3: a player than Will. I mean, Will Levis is just

904
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:10,120
Speaker 3: not an NFL starter. You know, highlight plays and this

905
00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:12,480
Speaker 3: is what Bill harped on about Caleb in the preseason

906
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:16,040
Speaker 3: are meaningless, whether it's the preseason or regular season game.

907
00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:18,799
Speaker 3: If you can't do normal stuff well, and then in

908
00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:21,759
Speaker 3: the big spots like the Joe Burrow fumble, Like to me,

909
00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:24,479
Speaker 3: I don't really hold that against him kind of freakish play.

910
00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:26,839
Speaker 3: You have confidence that he can manage a game. That's

911
00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:29,719
Speaker 3: why he's such a great player. Where Will Levis now

912
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:32,319
Speaker 3: back to back games, coming off a moment where you

913
00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:37,000
Speaker 3: just did something that was the just everyone who's making

914
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:39,040
Speaker 3: fun of you around the league, you think you would

915
00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:42,319
Speaker 3: kind of overcompensate and really just say hey bad, take

916
00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:45,000
Speaker 3: a sack if I have to, and he did the opposite,

917
00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:48,000
Speaker 3: and then as coach freaked out in another winnable game.

918
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:49,799
Speaker 3: I mean the Jets were, like you said, all the

919
00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:53,040
Speaker 3: stats they were against the Ropes, they did not look good. No,

920
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:58,040
Speaker 3: I mean they were losing players. I'm thinking this is

921
00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:00,920
Speaker 3: going to be really, really bad because the Patriots have

922
00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:02,960
Speaker 3: been kind of feisty. It's like they wouldn't be some

923
00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:06,279
Speaker 3: lock to win on Thursday night. And then you find

924
00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:07,960
Speaker 3: a way to win. You get a momentum, you beat

925
00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:09,400
Speaker 3: the Patriots, all of a sudden, you feel kind of

926
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:12,480
Speaker 3: good about yourself. But I have come away these two

927
00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:16,239
Speaker 3: weeks being very very concerned. Jets defense is worse than

928
00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:20,000
Speaker 3: we had thought, and Rogers, who we just were. I

929
00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:22,919
Speaker 3: was only going off like NFL Network highlights, thinking like god,

930
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:25,439
Speaker 3: Rogers is kind of limping around and you watch a move,

931
00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:28,840
Speaker 3: he's just he's very ginger. Yeah, and he does not

932
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:33,040
Speaker 3: want to leave the little radio four feet radios. We've

933
00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:35,359
Speaker 3: all been watching the guy for fifteen years. No one

934
00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:38,080
Speaker 3: was quicker take off, set his feet and throw a strike.

935
00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:39,240
Speaker 3: Those days are gone.

936
00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:43,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to talk about Chargers Panthers. First of all,

937
00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:46,080
Speaker 1: Bryce Young has an offensive coach and better weapons. He

938
00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:48,480
Speaker 1: may not be able to play one for twelve on

939
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:52,520
Speaker 1: third down sixty nine passing yards. He moves well, he

940
00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:55,840
Speaker 1: doesn't throw well. But here's what was a big moment

941
00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:57,919
Speaker 1: in this game. So the Chargers were favored by about

942
00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:01,040
Speaker 1: six they blew him out. So once again, it is

943
00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:05,560
Speaker 1: exactly what we expected. Justin Herbert goes fourteen to twenty

944
00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 1: has about a half dozen rushes, so you know they

945
00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:12,080
Speaker 1: get Joe Alt Now they have the elite tackle play,

946
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:16,000
Speaker 1: elite edge rusher play, and we worried about they don't

947
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:18,719
Speaker 1: have a number one. Well, Quinton Johnson today had five

948
00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:20,839
Speaker 1: catches and two touchdowns. So Quentin's the guy they got

949
00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:23,080
Speaker 1: out of TCU. Brandon Staley didn't know.

950
00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:25,359
Speaker 2: How to develop him. He was a disaster last year.

951
00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:26,120
Speaker 2: I'm not sure if he.

952
00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:28,319
Speaker 3: Lost his confidence they had thrown into the I mean

953
00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:28,640
Speaker 3: he was.

954
00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:32,840
Speaker 1: Just I didn't even target him last year. He made

955
00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:36,919
Speaker 1: any heck of a catch day for a touchdown if

956
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:39,680
Speaker 1: he hits. So now you got the slot kit out

957
00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:40,160
Speaker 1: of Georgia.

958
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:41,200
Speaker 2: JK.

959
00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:43,759
Speaker 1: Dobbins is like a You see that flip into the

960
00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:44,480
Speaker 1: end zone like he's a.

961
00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:46,960
Speaker 3: Different look looks like a top five or six running

962
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 3: back in the NFL.

963
00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:49,560
Speaker 1: Right, so now I've got a top ten quarterback. I've

964
00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:52,680
Speaker 1: got a top five coach JK. Dobbins, I have a

965
00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:56,360
Speaker 1: run game, elite tackles, elite edge rushers. If Quinton Johnson

966
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:59,920
Speaker 1: along with their slot guy out of Georgia. Okay, now,

967
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:02,160
Speaker 1: oh you do have a weapon. Because he was a

968
00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:05,279
Speaker 1: big kid. But he reminded me last year a little

969
00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:07,359
Speaker 1: bit of Stephen Hill, the bust for the Jets years ago,

970
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:09,640
Speaker 1: the wide receiver, the guy that just could run fast,

971
00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:11,600
Speaker 1: look great in the hotel lobby. But you're like, what

972
00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:17,480
Speaker 1: is it not Today? I thought it's amazing, John. Their

973
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:20,040
Speaker 1: time of possession advantage was thirty six to twenty three.

974
00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:24,080
Speaker 1: It's so horrible. It's so Michigan. But I thought to myself,

975
00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:28,319
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm looking around at these teams. This

976
00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 1: team could be a twelve win team. John elite tackles,

977
00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:34,719
Speaker 1: elite quarterback, elite coach, elite ed rushers. Now a star back,

978
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:37,480
Speaker 1: time of possession dominance. Now we know the Raiders are

979
00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:38,279
Speaker 1: better than we thought.

980
00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:42,760
Speaker 3: Yeah. I was kicking myself because that game was over fast.

981
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:47,239
Speaker 3: That I get Jim Harbaugh against this panther situation and

982
00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:49,680
Speaker 3: didn't bet at the mortgage, Like what was I doing?

983
00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 3: You know, Jim, and we've been talking about this. I

984
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:54,799
Speaker 3: was in the car this week when he came on

985
00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:59,480
Speaker 3: with you. His personality is dramatically different than the guy

986
00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:01,520
Speaker 3: I remember when I was around in San Francisco who

987
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:03,479
Speaker 3: had this huge chip on his shoulder and was tight.

988
00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:05,719
Speaker 3: It felt like the way the last couple of years

989
00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:07,920
Speaker 3: in Michigan proving like, hey guys, I'm one of the

990
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:09,839
Speaker 3: best in the business. I don't know if it's been

991
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:12,719
Speaker 3: the weight's been lifted off his shoulders, but I know this,

992
00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:14,759
Speaker 3: and I think Jim might have said this to you

993
00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:16,440
Speaker 3: or I heard him say this somewhere. Is that his

994
00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:19,719
Speaker 3: dad was at a training camp practice and looked at

995
00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:21,960
Speaker 3: him and said, I think JK looks like the guy

996
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:24,839
Speaker 3: a couple of years ago before he got injured. If

997
00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:28,720
Speaker 3: you give Jim Harbaugh a top end running back, because

998
00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:30,439
Speaker 3: we know he's always gonna have a good offensive lines,

999
00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:32,360
Speaker 3: why he you know, everyone thought he was nuts, like

1000
00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:34,239
Speaker 3: he's gonna take a wide receiver, Like no, guys, he's

1001
00:49:34,239 --> 00:49:36,759
Speaker 3: gonna take a offensive lineman. And then he calls them

1002
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:39,920
Speaker 3: skill positions their defense is always going to be solid.

1003
00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 3: Why one, he's just an elite hier like he hires

1004
00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:47,919
Speaker 3: well so like and John does too, they hire good

1005
00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:50,920
Speaker 3: defensive coaches, so their defense is going to be well coached,

1006
00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:53,279
Speaker 3: even if they're going to be better personnel wise than

1007
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:56,080
Speaker 3: a couple of years. But like what he does translates.

1008
00:49:56,400 --> 00:49:59,359
Speaker 3: He controls the line of scrimmage on offense, which even

1009
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:01,239
Speaker 3: if you have a way better offense than him, he

1010
00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:03,960
Speaker 3: keeps you off the field, and that wasn't the case today.

1011
00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:06,319
Speaker 3: But he can just run it down your throat. So

1012
00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:08,680
Speaker 3: if he can run it down your throat, Jim Harbaugh

1013
00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:11,160
Speaker 3: is a lock to win double digit games in college

1014
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:13,799
Speaker 3: or the pros. And clearly the Broncos are not going

1015
00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:16,040
Speaker 3: to be very good. I still think the raid one

1016
00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:20,200
Speaker 3: advantage the Raiders had. The Ravens offensive line is not good,

1017
00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:22,280
Speaker 3: and the Raiders do have a good defensive line. Yeah,

1018
00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:24,279
Speaker 3: they were down ten in the fourth quarter and came

1019
00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:25,920
Speaker 3: to him, but it was an impressive win on the

1020
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:28,680
Speaker 3: rod was But to me, the Ravens I got I

1021
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:31,120
Speaker 3: got red flagged. I mean, they got some weird stuff

1022
00:50:31,200 --> 00:50:34,680
Speaker 3: going on. But I think Jim Harbaugh can finish second

1023
00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:36,880
Speaker 3: in this Division with ten or eleven wins and be

1024
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:39,239
Speaker 3: in the playoffs. Yeah, you know, I don't think he

1025
00:50:39,239 --> 00:50:41,360
Speaker 3: can beat the Chiefs. Their team is not good enough

1026
00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:43,120
Speaker 3: maybe in an individual.

1027
00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:46,479
Speaker 1: Game, but they are built to beat Kansas City.

1028
00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:49,360
Speaker 3: Well, they're built to plan an ugly you know, twenty

1029
00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:50,200
Speaker 3: three to twenty game.

1030
00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:53,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, their time of possessions so far this season are

1031
00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:57,720
Speaker 1: really impressive. And it's just it's it's it's funny because

1032
00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:01,360
Speaker 1: just think about this. Six months ago, before the national

1033
00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:05,200
Speaker 1: before the college football playoffs, seventy percent of fans and

1034
00:51:05,320 --> 00:51:08,600
Speaker 1: media were still doubting Jim Harbaugh. He was getting crushed,

1035
00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:11,080
Speaker 1: he couldn't coach in the Penn State game. He's overrated.

1036
00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:15,720
Speaker 1: And now you look at him and you're like like, stop, stop, media, stop.

1037
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:19,600
Speaker 1: This guy is absolutely phenomenal. This seem almost reminds me.

1038
00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:21,960
Speaker 3: Well, he's not very but he's not even hateable anymore.

1039
00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:24,160
Speaker 3: The way he carries himself, the way he interacts. He's

1040
00:51:24,200 --> 00:51:27,080
Speaker 3: actually much more lovable now because he used to have

1041
00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:31,000
Speaker 3: like this aggressive he was tough on the press, definitely publicly.

1042
00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:34,760
Speaker 3: He could befriend him off this version of Jim Harbaugh,

1043
00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:38,560
Speaker 3: and I didn't fall in this closely like in Michigan.

1044
00:51:38,560 --> 00:51:40,520
Speaker 3: Part of it. He was suspended a couple times last year.

1045
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:42,719
Speaker 3: Just in terms of his daily press conferences. He's a

1046
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:45,480
Speaker 3: new man. I mean he's I bet the Spanishes are

1047
00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:48,399
Speaker 3: like God, this is incredible, the way he interacts, how

1048
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:51,040
Speaker 3: happy he is. I mean, he's just he feels like

1049
00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:54,120
Speaker 3: a different person. Maybe he's sixty now, life's good. I

1050
00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:58,279
Speaker 3: don't know. Southern California. He feels completely different than the

1051
00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:00,560
Speaker 3: guy at Stanford at the forty nine. And I would

1052
00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:04,399
Speaker 3: say early on in Michigan, just his mannerisms, his communication,

1053
00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:07,359
Speaker 3: just his just everyday demeanor. Yeah.

1054
00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:10,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I think some of it is he's inherited

1055
00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:16,440
Speaker 1: some decent quarterbacks Alex Smith. He's I think he realizes,

1056
00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:20,799
Speaker 1: holy crap, I got a top five quarterback here. That

1057
00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:24,600
Speaker 1: makes everybody happier. And Tom Telasco deserves some credit. They've

1058
00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:28,040
Speaker 1: got players. I mean they just Tom made a mistake.

1059
00:52:28,160 --> 00:52:30,759
Speaker 1: He hired the wrong guy. Brian Dabel was out there.

1060
00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:34,320
Speaker 1: He knew Dabel, but they ended up going with Brandon Staley.

1061
00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:37,400
Speaker 1: If he has Dabel, maybe Jim Harbaugh stays in college.

1062
00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:39,600
Speaker 1: You know, it's weird how things work. If the doctor

1063
00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:43,120
Speaker 1: for the Miami Dolphins gives Drew Brees the thumbs up.

1064
00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:46,319
Speaker 1: May never go to Alabama, he stays, you know, he

1065
00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:47,719
Speaker 1: was starting to kind of get things.

1066
00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:48,240
Speaker 2: Going in Miami.

1067
00:52:48,640 --> 00:52:50,680
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, at the bottom line, if Dabel gets

1068
00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:53,200
Speaker 1: the job and not Brandon Stalely, my take is justin

1069
00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:57,399
Speaker 1: Herbert's good and Harbaugh's probably staying at college one more year.

1070
00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:00,279
Speaker 1: But it's it is interesting to watch them. This team

1071
00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:03,839
Speaker 1: reminds me a little of the Stanford team, which if

1072
00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:05,440
Speaker 1: you go back to the early years, once they got

1073
00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:07,560
Speaker 1: Andrew Luck, you had this great quarterback and he only

1074
00:53:07,560 --> 00:53:10,240
Speaker 1: threw like twenty five times a game. They were pounding it,

1075
00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:13,239
Speaker 1: running down your throat. They had good tackles, they had

1076
00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:18,400
Speaker 1: a pass rush. So I think it's interesting td Tuddy

1077
00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:20,640
Speaker 1: taking it to the house in for six, whatever you

1078

Speaker 2: I want to talk Rams Arizona. Listen.

1108
00:54:44,640 --> 00:54:46,680
Speaker 1: Rams don't know any players. I mean, they're just they're just.

1109
00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:49,680
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup was limped today. Pooka is already out. Tyler

1110
00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:55,240
Speaker 1: Higgsby's out. Let's talk Marvin Harrison and Kyler So Marvin Harrison.

1111
00:54:55,320 --> 00:54:57,880
Speaker 1: The best college receiver I ever saw was Randy Moss.

1112
00:54:58,320 --> 00:55:00,799
Speaker 1: The second was Calvin Johnson. I think Marvin reminds me

1113
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:06,840
Speaker 1: a little of Calvin Johnson. Size, length, hatching, radius, hands.

1114
00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:10,120
Speaker 1: He didn't run like Moss, either did Calvin. But you're

1115
00:55:10,120 --> 00:55:15,200
Speaker 1: not going to catch him from behind. But now you

1116
00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:17,960
Speaker 1: know the first week Steve Kim told me he'd watched

1117
00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:20,520
Speaker 1: the film and the tape and he said Marvin was nervous.

1118
00:55:20,719 --> 00:55:24,600
Speaker 1: He was playing slow. He's not really a burner, but

1119
00:55:24,719 --> 00:55:26,600
Speaker 1: in a league you saw it today with the Rams,

1120
00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:31,960
Speaker 1: in a league that has a lack of corners, and

1121
00:55:33,320 --> 00:55:35,960
Speaker 1: you know, with Kyler's ability to run, you have to

1122
00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:38,799
Speaker 1: have a spy. He's going to get some one on

1123
00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:40,600
Speaker 1: one man and they run the football well.

1124
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:41,680
Speaker 2: So it's like you.

1125
00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:44,279
Speaker 1: Start looking at Arizona and you're like, you know, we

1126
00:55:44,320 --> 00:55:47,160
Speaker 1: watched Buffalo handle Miami. Buffalo is probably pretty good team.

1127
00:55:47,719 --> 00:55:51,359
Speaker 1: They took a big lead on them. Harrison is I mean,

1128
00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:53,799
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, they have two backs. Kyler had

1129
00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:56,120
Speaker 1: his best game maybe as a pro. Marvin Harrison and

1130
00:55:56,160 --> 00:55:59,120
Speaker 1: I will argue this. I think their coach is good

1131
00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:00,520
Speaker 1: on his side of the ball. I think they play

1132
00:56:00,520 --> 00:56:03,279
Speaker 1: their ass off defensively. What do you make of Arizona

1133
00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:04,440
Speaker 1: and Kyler?

1134
00:56:05,600 --> 00:56:08,919
Speaker 3: I don't know where Kyler ranks, you know, one through

1135
00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:12,120
Speaker 3: twelve or whatever. He's probably close to ten through twelve

1136
00:56:12,160 --> 00:56:14,880
Speaker 3: than he is three or four. But when he's on,

1137
00:56:15,160 --> 00:56:17,200
Speaker 3: there can't there's a short list of players that you

1138
00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:20,680
Speaker 3: would rather watch. Wow, he is as entertaining as they get.

1139
00:56:20,719 --> 00:56:23,760
Speaker 3: Like what Deshaun Watson has become like no one wants

1140
00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:28,040
Speaker 3: to watch him. Kyler's the opposite. He's like, this is awesome.

1141
00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:31,960
Speaker 3: He's always gonna have some limitations in the pocket just

1142
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:35,520
Speaker 3: because of height, but just a pure talent. You know,

1143
00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:38,480
Speaker 3: you've been watching sports longer than me. He has to

1144
00:56:38,520 --> 00:56:41,200
Speaker 3: be one of the great true blue chip just talents

1145
00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:44,560
Speaker 3: in the history of sports to have that much capability

1146
00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:46,799
Speaker 3: to do the things he can do at five foot nine.

1147
00:56:47,800 --> 00:56:51,480
Speaker 3: I mean his speed, his arm strength, his accuracy on

1148
00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:54,879
Speaker 3: the move. Obviously, Harrison's a really good player. One thing

1149
00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:57,680
Speaker 3: I heard in the offseason when he got drafted is

1150
00:56:58,400 --> 00:57:01,400
Speaker 3: the one transition part for Marvin Harrison was going to

1151
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:05,120
Speaker 3: be the overwhelming majority of players Heath saw in college

1152
00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:08,120
Speaker 3: these last couple of years were guys not NFL corners

1153
00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:10,279
Speaker 3: for a lot of guys in the Big Ten. And

1154
00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:12,520
Speaker 3: he came to the NFL and he's immediately facing the

1155
00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:16,200
Speaker 3: first week the Bills. Rasuell Douglas. This guy's making ten

1156
00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:18,160
Speaker 3: million dollars a year, probably has a couple kids at home,

1157
00:57:18,200 --> 00:57:19,920
Speaker 3: drives a range row that lives in a mansion, and

1158
00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:23,160
Speaker 3: he's trying to take your lunch and Marvin, it was

1159
00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:26,040
Speaker 3: going to be a wake up moment. And today they

1160
00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:28,480
Speaker 3: don't exactly have Jalen Ramsey out there anymore, so you

1161
00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:31,440
Speaker 3: get a confidence he gets an early catch. I loved

1162
00:57:31,560 --> 00:57:34,400
Speaker 3: from a gambling perspective betting on Marvin Harrison whatever his

1163
00:57:34,520 --> 00:57:37,280
Speaker 3: props were, because last week it was so like it

1164
00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:38,920
Speaker 3: was such a big story. You knew they were going

1165
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:40,960
Speaker 3: to try to feed him the ball right to get

1166
00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:43,440
Speaker 3: his confidence moving. They have a lot of talent, Like

1167
00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:45,640
Speaker 3: if Kyler's just he doesn't need to play like today.

1168
00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:48,360
Speaker 3: But if he's playing well, Trey McBride, if you just

1169
00:57:48,400 --> 00:57:50,560
Speaker 3: did this draft from scratch with GMS, would be a

1170
00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:55,480
Speaker 3: top five touch tight end. James Connor is a running

1171
00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:57,880
Speaker 3: back no one talks about. Whenever I was last year,

1172
00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:00,400
Speaker 3: this guy could play on my team and he dad yes,

1173
00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:03,680
Speaker 3: and like you said, my buddies with Philly, I know

1174
00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:06,800
Speaker 3: the way it ended right. Defensively, he got a lot

1175
00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:10,240
Speaker 3: of shit Gannon. They love the guy and they and

1176
00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:12,600
Speaker 3: I remember hearing like he might be a better head

1177
00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:14,920
Speaker 3: coach than he was a pure schematics guy, because how

1178
00:58:14,920 --> 00:58:16,680
Speaker 3: good he is with players, how good of a leader

1179
00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:18,720
Speaker 3: he is, the way he carries himself. He's a really

1180
00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:22,240
Speaker 3: smart guy. I don't know if they're a playoff team

1181
00:58:22,280 --> 00:58:24,680
Speaker 3: because the one thing with Kyler is he can be

1182
00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:29,480
Speaker 3: a very up and down. He's got a streak exactly

1183
00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:31,280
Speaker 3: like he could score thirty in the next game he

1184
00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:34,960
Speaker 3: scores five points like Buddy. But but when he's healthy,

1185
00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:38,040
Speaker 3: he is a He's He's on a top five list

1186
00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:40,840
Speaker 3: of guys that would keep defensive coordinators up throughout the

1187
00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:42,000
Speaker 3: week because he can do stuff like that.

1188
00:58:42,080 --> 00:58:46,480
Speaker 1: And like Minnesota, we may not love their overall roster,

1189
00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:49,240
Speaker 1: but you look at Minnesota's offensive pieces and they don't

1190
00:58:49,240 --> 00:58:53,680
Speaker 1: even have Jordan Madison. Yet it's like Minnesota's got left tackle,

1191
00:58:53,880 --> 00:58:57,920
Speaker 1: backed tight end, two receivers, quarterback coach, like they got dogs.

1192
00:58:58,000 --> 00:59:02,160
Speaker 1: I mean Arizona McBride, the two backs, Marvin Harrison, they

1193
00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:03,720
Speaker 1: had another kid make a nice catch in the back

1194
00:59:03,720 --> 00:59:08,040
Speaker 1: of the end zones like Kyler. I just watched them

1195
00:59:08,040 --> 00:59:12,480
Speaker 1: today and I'm like, I mean the two teams in

1196
00:59:12,520 --> 00:59:15,440
Speaker 1: the league that I've watched and I've went, Wow, Saints

1197
00:59:15,760 --> 00:59:18,640
Speaker 1: and even though they're one and one, Arizona that first

1198
00:59:18,640 --> 00:59:21,120
Speaker 1: half against Buffalo, Buffalo was on the ropes.

1199
00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:25,400
Speaker 3: The one thing Kyler and if you remember back, you know,

1200
00:59:25,600 --> 00:59:27,480
Speaker 3: was it three or four years ago when they started

1201
00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:31,800
Speaker 3: like eleven and one, he can like he wears down

1202
00:59:31,880 --> 00:59:33,840
Speaker 3: over the course of the year, as guys do get

1203
00:59:33,840 --> 00:59:36,320
Speaker 3: shots on him when he is healthy and clearly he

1204
00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:39,160
Speaker 3: is right now he can be like an MVP candidate.

1205
00:59:39,480 --> 00:59:43,080
Speaker 3: Can he look like that? And one thing that's very

1206
00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:46,080
Speaker 3: clear and the two a hit which was awful to

1207
00:59:46,120 --> 00:59:50,160
Speaker 3: watch was avoidable. He got a slide. Jaden Daniels, another guy,

1208
00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:56,200
Speaker 3: incredible runner, cannot slide the smart quarterbacks, like I thought

1209
00:59:56,240 --> 00:59:58,200
Speaker 3: the moment that to a moment happened, I was like,

1210
00:59:58,240 --> 01:00:00,880
Speaker 3: I bet every quarterback beside like golf, because you don't

1211
01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:03,080
Speaker 3: even need to show him this. And Kirk Cousins is

1212
01:00:03,120 --> 01:00:05,560
Speaker 3: gonna watch that like ten times with their quarterback coach,

1213
01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:10,000
Speaker 3: like you guys are too important to us to not slide. Yes,

1214
01:00:10,080 --> 01:00:12,600
Speaker 3: this is not the nineteen eighties and seventies, but you

1215
01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:15,640
Speaker 3: will still get injured if you run into these defenders.

1216
01:00:16,120 --> 01:00:18,440
Speaker 3: And if Kyler, who is a baseball player, is a

1217
01:00:18,440 --> 01:00:21,440
Speaker 3: good slider and it's so fast, can get to the

1218
01:00:21,520 --> 01:00:23,800
Speaker 3: edges and get out of bounce, can avoid just the

1219
01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:27,160
Speaker 3: meaningless hits you don't need. Jayden Daniels is taking like

1220
01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:29,280
Speaker 3: he has such a special talent, but he's taking so

1221
01:00:29,320 --> 01:00:32,800
Speaker 3: many meaningless brutal that just wears you over the course

1222
01:00:32,840 --> 01:00:35,640
Speaker 3: of the year. And eventually if a guy holds you

1223
01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:38,120
Speaker 3: up and another guy's coming in, it could injure season.

1224
01:00:38,640 --> 01:00:42,200
Speaker 3: Non I'm talking breaking a clavicle, breaking an arm. And

1225
01:00:42,600 --> 01:00:44,640
Speaker 3: I do think Kyler's now been around a long time

1226
01:00:44,720 --> 01:00:47,200
Speaker 3: and he has the capability to slide. He just every

1227
01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:50,080
Speaker 3: time he runs should never get tackled, right, And if

1228
01:00:50,120 --> 01:00:52,320
Speaker 3: I was them, I would never never call like a

1229
01:00:52,400 --> 01:00:55,760
Speaker 3: Josh Allen power run between the tackles. Any run beside

1230
01:00:55,760 --> 01:00:58,600
Speaker 3: when he's scrambling around is an edge run. But how

1231
01:00:58,600 --> 01:01:00,360
Speaker 3: do you not call something for him because he is

1232
01:01:01,040 --> 01:01:03,400
Speaker 3: that today? This is where you get if you're the

1233
01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:07,040
Speaker 3: Rams and the Bengals. When you lose, like the Rams

1234
01:01:07,080 --> 01:01:09,560
Speaker 3: lost a coin flip game week one, then all of

1235
01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:11,800
Speaker 3: a sudden, it's snowballs. Now they're getting the Niners, who

1236
01:01:11,840 --> 01:01:13,600
Speaker 3: are also going to be pissed off who kind of

1237
01:01:13,640 --> 01:01:15,040
Speaker 3: owned you all of a sudden. You look, we're zero

1238
01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:17,040
Speaker 3: to three and we think we're pretty good. You know

1239
01:01:17,920 --> 01:01:19,640
Speaker 3: that can happen the Bengals. Same thing. All of a sudden,

1240
01:01:19,640 --> 01:01:21,840
Speaker 3: it's like, oh, that's why you got to take advantage

1241
01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:23,120
Speaker 3: when you have those coin flip games.

1242
01:01:23,160 --> 01:01:25,920
Speaker 1: I will say this, San Francisco lost, Baltimore Rams zho

1243
01:01:25,960 --> 01:01:30,520
Speaker 1: and two. It is a long season. I will stay Bengals. Yeah,

1244
01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:35,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna circle back though, of all those teams big picture,

1245
01:01:35,880 --> 01:01:38,200
Speaker 1: let's wrap it up with this big picture of all

1246
01:01:38,240 --> 01:01:41,320
Speaker 1: the teams that are scrapping. I like Cincinnati. First of all,

1247
01:01:41,320 --> 01:01:44,480
Speaker 1: T Higgins is coming back. They just lost a game

1248
01:01:44,520 --> 01:01:46,439
Speaker 1: they could have won against Kansas City. That's a pretty

1249
01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:51,720
Speaker 1: damn good loss. Joe Burrow's fantastic. Burton will become more

1250
01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:53,600
Speaker 1: of a player. You know, he's just a young receiver.

1251
01:01:53,640 --> 01:01:55,880
Speaker 1: You got guys like him. Over a four or five

1252
01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:59,200
Speaker 1: game stretch, can become a different player. I think Baltimore's

1253
01:01:59,240 --> 01:02:01,400
Speaker 1: oh lines of mass. I think the Rams all lines

1254
01:02:01,400 --> 01:02:05,960
Speaker 1: a mess. Those are real concerns. I look at Cincinnati,

1255
01:02:06,560 --> 01:02:10,560
Speaker 1: John if they reeled off eight straight wins, I wouldn't

1256
01:02:10,600 --> 01:02:11,160
Speaker 1: be surprised.

1257
01:02:12,320 --> 01:02:14,360
Speaker 3: Well, they win every They beat every team in the

1258
01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:17,840
Speaker 3: league beside the Chiefs today. Right, I mean so that

1259
01:02:18,320 --> 01:02:20,720
Speaker 3: like that version of the game is a twelve thirteen

1260
01:02:20,760 --> 01:02:24,000
Speaker 3: win team. So I'm with you. I just you know,

1261
01:02:24,040 --> 01:02:26,120
Speaker 3: the Borough injury is always in the back of your head.

1262
01:02:26,160 --> 01:02:29,480
Speaker 3: Can he stay healthy? I just they do? You know,

1263
01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:32,000
Speaker 3: Jamar Chase, you have to wonder if his outburst is

1264
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:34,120
Speaker 3: a little A lot going on with his contract now

1265
01:02:34,120 --> 01:02:36,440
Speaker 3: he says I'm good for the season. They just got

1266
01:02:36,440 --> 01:02:38,680
Speaker 3: a lot going on. You know. T Higgins is having

1267
01:02:38,680 --> 01:02:41,080
Speaker 3: to answer questions like is he faking an injury because

1268
01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:44,400
Speaker 3: he's pissed off of the contract. This is this is

1269
01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:46,800
Speaker 3: a spot that if you told me, like Tomlin, you

1270
01:02:46,800 --> 01:02:49,600
Speaker 3: know John Harbaugh or Jim Harball was handling the guys

1271
01:02:49,640 --> 01:02:51,680
Speaker 3: Beck he can handle it. You see Zach trying to

1272
01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:54,360
Speaker 3: get Jamar Chase younger guy, even though he's now been

1273
01:02:54,360 --> 01:02:55,960
Speaker 3: a head coach for a what it's a tough position.

1274
01:02:56,760 --> 01:02:59,680
Speaker 3: It's not easy, but I'm with you. I mean, they're

1275
01:02:59,720 --> 01:03:02,919
Speaker 3: just when Joe's right, they're really good. The one team

1276
01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:04,920
Speaker 3: that I'm concerned of that I liked as a playoff

1277
01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:08,280
Speaker 3: team was our guy, Chris Ballard and Shane Steiken win

1278
01:03:08,360 --> 01:03:13,720
Speaker 3: Indy their quarterback to lose. I loved the Colts because

1279
01:03:13,760 --> 01:03:17,280
Speaker 3: I was like Malik Willis and then Malik Willis looked

1280
01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:21,080
Speaker 3: better than an Anthony Richardson, you know Bo Nicks or

1281
01:03:21,320 --> 01:03:25,960
Speaker 3: the rookie quarterback and he was bad andthy Richardson what

1282
01:03:26,000 --> 01:03:26,880
Speaker 3: was that? Well?

1283
01:03:27,120 --> 01:03:31,360
Speaker 1: And it concerned you because Steiken had Herbert as a rookie.

1284
01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:34,920
Speaker 1: Herbert set NFL rookie records. He made Jalen Hurts an

1285
01:03:35,000 --> 01:03:37,880
Speaker 1: MVP level player. This is the best off one he

1286
01:03:37,960 --> 01:03:41,840
Speaker 1: made Gardner Minshew last year. I mean Minshew had those

1287
01:03:41,840 --> 01:03:46,920
Speaker 1: guys on the doorstep. This Richardson thing, It's like he

1288
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:49,840
Speaker 1: may be a remarkable player, but staffs matter. I mean,

1289
01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:53,000
Speaker 1: Malik Willis in the first half with Lafleur in that

1290
01:03:53,080 --> 01:03:55,400
Speaker 1: culture looked better than he ever did in Tennessee. I

1291
01:03:55,400 --> 01:03:57,760
Speaker 1: mean Tennessee gave up on that guy for about two games.

1292
01:03:58,960 --> 01:04:00,600
Speaker 1: He looked like, oh he could.

1293
01:04:00,760 --> 01:04:03,240
Speaker 3: He were good. I gave got credit. He was good.

1294
01:04:03,720 --> 01:04:07,920
Speaker 1: So now Shane Steichen's had an entire off season with

1295
01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:14,600
Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson that was a mess. He looked lost.

1296
01:04:15,480 --> 01:04:17,320
Speaker 3: I do think what's scary is I think if you

1297
01:04:17,360 --> 01:04:20,040
Speaker 3: look at every you know, the highest level of sports,

1298
01:04:20,120 --> 01:04:22,400
Speaker 3: right just because you throw one hundred and two miles

1299
01:04:22,400 --> 01:04:24,040
Speaker 3: an hour, you could have the best pitching coach, he

1300
01:04:24,120 --> 01:04:27,360
Speaker 3: might not teach you how to throw strikes. You could be,

1301
01:04:27,680 --> 01:04:29,800
Speaker 3: you know, the most talented guy in the NBA, and

1302
01:04:29,840 --> 01:04:31,880
Speaker 3: you could get Chip England, the shooting coach, and he

1303
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:35,600
Speaker 3: just can't help you out to make you know open shots.

1304
01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:38,640
Speaker 3: I do think in football, for every Josh Allen and

1305
01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:42,160
Speaker 3: guys that are able to improve their accuracy historically speaking,

1306
01:04:42,200 --> 01:04:44,240
Speaker 3: there are way more examples of guys that are just

1307
01:04:44,360 --> 01:04:47,720
Speaker 3: all over the map and right now, whether it's like

1308
01:04:47,800 --> 01:04:50,120
Speaker 3: we talked about Sam Darnold, it was way too sped

1309
01:04:50,200 --> 01:04:52,600
Speaker 3: up early on in his career, had a small You

1310
01:04:52,640 --> 01:04:55,120
Speaker 3: watch him, he is kind of set at times and

1311
01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:58,360
Speaker 3: the ball just flies. Yes, I mean like he has

1312
01:04:58,560 --> 01:05:03,320
Speaker 3: no he has no clue where it's going. You're like, oh,

1313
01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:05,320
Speaker 3: I don't know what you can do as a coach

1314
01:05:05,800 --> 01:05:07,680
Speaker 3: to fix that level of wells.

1315
01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:11,360
Speaker 1: Think about this, Malik Willis as Malik Willis as a

1316
01:05:11,360 --> 01:05:16,000
Speaker 1: spot starter, they had a forty minute to nineteen minute

1317
01:05:16,040 --> 01:05:19,360
Speaker 1: time of possession advantage with Shane Steikn.

1318
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:22,600
Speaker 3: I mean, well, because when you're that inaccurate, you're gonna

1319
01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:24,560
Speaker 3: you're gonna give up plays. You're not gonna roll any time.

1320
01:05:24,600 --> 01:05:27,640
Speaker 1: Okay, So just look at the accuracy of Herbert as

1321
01:05:27,640 --> 01:05:30,280
Speaker 1: a rookie and Hurts as a young player, and we

1322
01:05:30,280 --> 01:05:33,000
Speaker 1: don't think the Packers defense is great. Shit, Philadelphia ran.

1323
01:05:32,960 --> 01:05:35,440
Speaker 2: Up and down like, oh, they looked terrible, terrible.

1324
01:05:36,080 --> 01:05:39,040
Speaker 1: He threw the ball thirty four times, he completed fifty percent,

1325
01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:42,480
Speaker 1: he had three picks, and he looked lost. So this

1326
01:05:42,520 --> 01:05:45,960
Speaker 1: is one of those things where Steiken has made every

1327
01:05:46,040 --> 01:05:49,440
Speaker 1: quarter he's taken, every quarterback he's had, and now I

1328
01:05:49,440 --> 01:05:52,840
Speaker 1: think Herbert will become what he was. With him, He's

1329
01:05:52,880 --> 01:05:57,840
Speaker 1: made everybody better. He had an off season like I

1330
01:05:57,920 --> 01:05:59,720
Speaker 1: wants that today, and I'm like, Malik Willis has better

1331
01:05:59,720 --> 01:06:02,800
Speaker 1: than that Richard at least.

1332
01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:05,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, in all interceptions like you were saying earlier, are

1333
01:06:05,160 --> 01:06:07,720
Speaker 3: not the same, Like Dak and Goff threw someone bad

1334
01:06:07,760 --> 01:06:09,960
Speaker 3: games off over the middle of the field, Like it's

1335
01:06:10,000 --> 01:06:12,680
Speaker 3: gonna happen. Those guys whatever, I still have faith in

1336
01:06:12,720 --> 01:06:15,000
Speaker 3: them over the course of the year. This is a

1337
01:06:15,040 --> 01:06:17,440
Speaker 3: guy that if you're like, hey, you can jump off

1338
01:06:17,440 --> 01:06:19,800
Speaker 3: the bandwagon right now, I think you'd have to lean

1339
01:06:19,880 --> 01:06:23,840
Speaker 3: that way. I guess it's possible to correct it. It

1340
01:06:23,840 --> 01:06:25,960
Speaker 3: feels like it would be have to be a pretty

1341
01:06:26,000 --> 01:06:29,000
Speaker 3: hard correction on this player. Because the other thing is

1342
01:06:29,080 --> 01:06:32,680
Speaker 3: Jalen people question like his arm strength and his past,

1343
01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:35,000
Speaker 3: but he did have Like this guy played for Saban,

1344
01:06:35,320 --> 01:06:38,200
Speaker 3: then he went to Lincoln Riley Gardner Minshew had already

1345
01:06:38,240 --> 01:06:40,160
Speaker 3: been a starter in the NFL. That this guy has

1346
01:06:40,200 --> 01:06:43,320
Speaker 3: a very limited track record in college and the pros

1347
01:06:43,760 --> 01:06:46,240
Speaker 3: and accuracy was a huge question mark. And the other

1348
01:06:46,280 --> 01:06:49,560
Speaker 3: thing you see is Jalen does have touch, like he's

1349
01:06:49,600 --> 01:06:52,760
Speaker 3: a great deep ball thrower down the sideline. This guy

1350
01:06:52,800 --> 01:06:56,360
Speaker 3: has no change up. Everything is going at warp speed.

1351
01:06:56,400 --> 01:06:59,000
Speaker 3: And when everything's going at warp speed, it is very

1352
01:06:59,040 --> 01:07:01,840
Speaker 3: difficult to be considered an accurate quarterback. And the other

1353
01:07:01,880 --> 01:07:04,480
Speaker 3: thing is Paul's fly off. Guy's hands go up in

1354
01:07:04,520 --> 01:07:07,240
Speaker 3: the air and usually a safety is behind your offensive player.

1355
01:07:07,280 --> 01:07:08,800
Speaker 3: It's gonna lead to a lot of This guy could

1356
01:07:08,840 --> 01:07:11,800
Speaker 3: easily lead the league interceptions this season, I would I

1357
01:07:11,800 --> 01:07:13,080
Speaker 3: would say he's the betting favorite.

1358
01:07:13,160 --> 01:07:15,760
Speaker 1: Well, and as we talket Green Bay Colts, I think

1359
01:07:15,800 --> 01:07:19,360
Speaker 1: the one thing that I've really noticed is, you know,

1360
01:07:19,360 --> 01:07:22,320
Speaker 1: you always have to be careful. The grass is always greener,

1361
01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:24,920
Speaker 1: and you know Aaron's seeing it.

1362
01:07:24,960 --> 01:07:25,240
Speaker 3: Now.

1363
01:07:25,360 --> 01:07:27,880
Speaker 1: You go from Matt Lafleur to Matt Hackett. You know,

1364
01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:30,560
Speaker 1: you go from the Packers always have a stable offensive

1365
01:07:30,560 --> 01:07:31,760
Speaker 1: line to the Jets.

1366
01:07:31,480 --> 01:07:32,400
Speaker 2: Kind of makeshift.

1367
01:07:32,840 --> 01:07:35,800
Speaker 1: You go from no owner stability, Mark Murphy to the

1368
01:07:35,880 --> 01:07:40,080
Speaker 1: Jets impulsive ownership. Is I think Matt Lafleur got a

1369
01:07:40,080 --> 01:07:43,280
Speaker 1: little lost because you know, McCarthy won a Super Bowl

1370
01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:45,560
Speaker 1: and then he takes over and he had some playoff

1371
01:07:45,600 --> 01:07:48,880
Speaker 1: struggles and we always lump those on Matt Lafleur. That's

1372
01:07:48,880 --> 01:07:51,840
Speaker 1: why you're losing in the playoffs. Matt Lafleur, I gotta

1373
01:07:51,880 --> 01:07:54,600
Speaker 1: tell you, I'm watching Jordan Love at the end of

1374
01:07:54,680 --> 01:07:58,480
Speaker 1: last year and I'm watching Malik Willis today, and those

1375
01:07:58,480 --> 01:08:01,200
Speaker 1: guys are both talented. But Jordan Love last year to

1376
01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:03,680
Speaker 1: start the season, John was raw, like he looked like

1377
01:08:03,720 --> 01:08:07,880
Speaker 1: he just wasn't what Jordan Love went from I mean

1378
01:08:08,040 --> 01:08:11,920
Speaker 1: really bad to like an MVP over the course of

1379
01:08:11,960 --> 01:08:14,640
Speaker 1: the season, like you you know, you know, you don't

1380
01:08:14,640 --> 01:08:17,200
Speaker 1: get an off season. You're in the middle of it.

1381
01:08:17,880 --> 01:08:20,479
Speaker 1: Malik Willis today and again, maybe I'm making too much.

1382
01:08:20,520 --> 01:08:23,040
Speaker 1: That'll be the only game he starts, but I was like, shit,

1383
01:08:23,160 --> 01:08:24,880
Speaker 1: he's totally under control.

1384
01:08:26,560 --> 01:08:28,200
Speaker 3: The other thing is this is not a player that

1385
01:08:28,360 --> 01:08:30,400
Speaker 3: was with them in OTA's and training camp. They traded

1386
01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:31,800
Speaker 3: for him at the end of the fifty three man.

1387
01:08:31,960 --> 01:08:32,479
Speaker 2: That's right.

1388
01:08:33,360 --> 01:08:36,160
Speaker 3: You could argue through two weeks the most impressive win

1389
01:08:36,200 --> 01:08:39,559
Speaker 3: of the season is Matt Lafleur winning a game with

1390
01:08:39,640 --> 01:08:42,600
Speaker 3: Malik Willis. I would say that's an incredible accomplished.

1391
01:08:42,200 --> 01:08:45,519
Speaker 1: Incredible and I think we've all because they struggled last

1392
01:08:45,520 --> 01:08:47,439
Speaker 1: couple of years with Aaron in the playoffs, I.

1393
01:08:47,479 --> 01:08:49,320
Speaker 2: Think he took the hit on that.

1394
01:08:49,880 --> 01:08:51,800
Speaker 1: But I always feel with Aaron, and this is not

1395
01:08:51,880 --> 01:08:54,040
Speaker 1: disrespectful Aaron, but Aaron was going to blow him off

1396
01:08:54,080 --> 01:08:55,679
Speaker 1: on certain play. Aaron's gonna do what Aaron.

1397
01:08:55,520 --> 01:08:55,880
Speaker 2: Wants to do.

1398
01:08:55,920 --> 01:08:57,800
Speaker 1: So it was a fifty to fifty offense. I mean,

1399
01:08:58,280 --> 01:09:00,160
Speaker 1: Aaron's coachable, but he was gonna do what he want

1400
01:09:00,280 --> 01:09:00,439
Speaker 1: to do.

1401
01:09:01,560 --> 01:09:01,760
Speaker 2: You know.

1402
01:09:02,360 --> 01:09:05,400
Speaker 3: Matt wanted him to play under center in the Shanahan

1403
01:09:05,479 --> 01:09:07,960
Speaker 3: offense to give him a lot of layups, and Aaron

1404
01:09:08,000 --> 01:09:09,799
Speaker 3: fought against it because he loved being in the shotgun,

1405
01:09:09,880 --> 01:09:11,559
Speaker 3: like you said, and seeing everything. And they kind of

1406
01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:13,040
Speaker 3: met in the middle, and what happened. He started to

1407
01:09:13,040 --> 01:09:16,040
Speaker 3: win MVPs. Matt Ryan pushed against it early on because

1408
01:09:16,040 --> 01:09:18,599
Speaker 3: you turn your back once you get comfortable shooting fish

1409
01:09:18,640 --> 01:09:21,080
Speaker 3: in a barrel for those type guys. But Aaron loved

1410
01:09:21,080 --> 01:09:23,360
Speaker 3: doing his thing in the shotgun and now he can

1411
01:09:23,439 --> 01:09:26,240
Speaker 3: just run his offense. But today I don't even he

1412
01:09:26,400 --> 01:09:29,800
Speaker 3: just to corral Malik Willis with probably less than ten

1413
01:09:29,840 --> 01:09:32,760
Speaker 3: to twelve plays. I mean, it's just I don't care

1414
01:09:32,800 --> 01:09:34,720
Speaker 3: how bad the Colts are on defense. What a win

1415
01:09:34,760 --> 01:09:35,519
Speaker 3: for the package, I.

1416
01:09:35,479 --> 01:09:37,960
Speaker 1: Know, huge win, you know, I almost look at that

1417
01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:40,600
Speaker 1: Brazil game with the and I'm just like, okay, the

1418
01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:43,519
Speaker 1: youngest team in the league went to Brazil. They stayed

1419
01:09:43,560 --> 01:09:45,920
Speaker 1: like two hours away from the stadium. Was like, I

1420
01:09:45,920 --> 01:09:46,920
Speaker 1: don't even count that.

1421
01:09:47,800 --> 01:09:49,760
Speaker 3: It just matters how quick they You know, is Jordan

1422
01:09:49,800 --> 01:09:51,519
Speaker 3: Love going to miss a month? Is he able to

1423
01:09:51,560 --> 01:09:53,680
Speaker 3: come back in a week? You know? I mean they

1424
01:09:53,960 --> 01:09:56,720
Speaker 3: kind of slow played us this week. Clearly he wasn't

1425
01:09:56,760 --> 01:09:58,960
Speaker 3: gonna play, But is he Is he closer to being

1426
01:09:59,000 --> 01:10:01,080
Speaker 3: ready next week or is he a month away? Like

1427
01:10:01,360 --> 01:10:03,160
Speaker 3: if they can get them back in two or three

1428
01:10:03,200 --> 01:10:06,439
Speaker 3: weeks and just go five hundred with Malik Willis, they'd

1429
01:10:06,479 --> 01:10:08,160
Speaker 3: be off and running and you'd be like, oh, yeah,

1430
01:10:08,240 --> 01:10:09,640
Speaker 3: they were like at the beginning of the season. I

1431
01:10:09,680 --> 01:10:10,920
Speaker 3: like them to be in the playoffs.

1432
01:10:11,520 --> 01:10:14,040
Speaker 1: On more NFL Scout, his podcast is three and out.

1433

Speaker 3: Same And do you know what, really before you get that,

1436
01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:27,320

1437
01:10:27,360 --> 01:10:29,559
Speaker 3: five and they're bye weeks, it is really hard to

1438
01:10:29,600 --> 01:10:31,880
Speaker 3: watch eight games a once. Like guy had to go like, yeah,

1439
01:10:31,920 --> 01:10:33,720
Speaker 3: I'm just not gonna watch the Browns and Jacks, right

1440
01:10:33,720 --> 01:10:36,479
Speaker 3: now I don't need to. There's just too many games

1441
01:10:36,479 --> 01:10:37,280
Speaker 3: going on in the morning.

1442
01:10:37,360 --> 01:10:40,679
Speaker 1: No. I mean that Washington, New York was actually wildly entertaining,

1443
01:10:40,680 --> 01:10:42,920
Speaker 1: but I had that on I can't pay attention to
