14
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:50,880
Speaker 1: back to the Richard Sherman Podcast. It's a rough week

15
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,240
Speaker 1: for a lot of teams. But did some teams found

16
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 1: some hope? Mitchell? Yeah. I mean we started early, rich

17
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 1: with the two of your former teams, Tampa Bay Buck

18
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 1: in the years taking on the Seattle Seahawks Red hot

19
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks in Germany, unique setting. Um, the Seahawks were cold.

20
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,040
Speaker 1: It is cold to start this game. I mean your thoughts,

21
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,959
Speaker 1: your takeaways from this game? Obviously big, big win for

22
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 1: the Bucks. But what are your thoughts after this this game? Rich, Well,

23
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: just a slow start for the Seahawks. You know they

24
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 1: got they can't start slow like that. International games are

25
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 1: always tough, you know, the time difference and all that.

26
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 1: You know, still played solid. Um, there wasn't much on

27
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 1: the ground game you you don't don't expect much against

28
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay and Tarik had another interception on a

29
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: on a weird play covering Brady. I mean, I don't

30
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 1: understand what they were thinking there. But um, it's a

31
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: great win for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. And I told

32
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 1: people you can't let Brady stick around, you know, in

33
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 1: that division. He's still up in the air and he's

34
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 1: gonna find a way. Now, well, it certainly seems like

35
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: he's gonna find a way that divisions a cake walk

36
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 1: for Tampa Bay going forward if Atlanta and the Panthers

37
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 1: and the Saints are playing the way they are. But

38
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: like you said, Rich, I mean this this Seahawks team

39
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: kind of went away from their ground and pound identity.

40
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker the third really held that Bay all game.

41
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 1: Only ten carries for seventeen yards. What do they have

42
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: to do to bounce back and get right because obviously

43
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: this is a little bit of wake up call going

44
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,839
Speaker 1: into the bye week. Well, they're gonna have to run

45
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: the ball, you know, and that's that's that's the thing

46
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 1: they they executed in the past game. But they've gotta

47
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 1: be able to run the ball. And I don't think

48
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 1: you're gonna play against the tap Bay Buccaneers front every week,

49
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,359
Speaker 1: you know, vidaveez and moving for anybody. But I think

50
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 1: they'll be fine. Well, rich we saw one of the

51
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,119
Speaker 1: most insane games of the year, maybe the last decade.

52
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 1: Frankly uh in in Buffalo um uh face off of

53
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: to Richard Sherman. Power ranked top five teams in the

54
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings and the Buffalo Bills, and the Bills just

55
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 1: let this one get away with huge mistakes down the stretch.

56
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 1: I mean, your thoughts on this game, rich Certainly there

57
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,639
Speaker 1: was some iconic plays made in this one, and it's

58
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,920
Speaker 1: gonna go down. Is is one of those games that

59
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 1: we play on repeat, uh, you know, on NFL all

60
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 1: the time. Right. Well, look, it didn't look like Justin

61
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 1: Jefferson was gonna lose this game. No matter what happened.

62
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,919
Speaker 1: So he willed this team to the victory. UM. Kirk

63
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 1: Cousins fighting off the stigma that he can't win big games.

64
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:07,799
Speaker 1: You know there are people writing him off. Halfway through

65
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 1: this game. And Josh Allen, Josh Allen has turned the

66
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 1: ball over down to stretch the last couple of games.

67
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 1: You know, there's two losses in a row for the

68
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills. Um, so there's gonna be a conversation there

69
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 1: about you know, kind of history directory right now. But

70
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 1: the Bills dropped the game. You know, that's two in

71
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 1: a row. You gotta that means something. And Josh Allen

72
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 1: leading the NFL and interceptions that means something. Um, the

73
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 1: Vikings Patrick Peterson two interceptions. Um, that defense stepping up

74
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 1: in a big way. UM, justin Jefferson again, Dalvin Cook

75
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 1: made some huge plays down the stretch. That team, I mean,

76
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 1: they proved they can win big games and Buffalo proved

77
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 1: they can lose big games. Another tight loss by the

78
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills. It's kind of been the story since two

79
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 1: thousand and twenty one with this team. They can't win

80
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 1: single possession games for the life of them. UM, I

81
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 1: think more insane the stat line that's developing with the

82
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings this year. I mean they're eight and one,

83
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 1: but five of their wins this year have come with

84
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: I'm trailing in the last two and a half seconds

85
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 1: of the game. Rich. I mean, they could easily be

86
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 1: I don't know, three and six, as they are eight

87
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 1: and one, and this team just figuring out a way

88
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: to win, and they're justin. Jefferson is putting this team

89
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 1: on his back. Twenty game with a hundred plus receiving

90
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,719
Speaker 1: yards Rich most of the first three seasons of anyone

91
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 1: in NFL history. What is this guy mean to the

92
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings. I mean he means everything and and and

93
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 1: in the game, he's playing against Stefon Diggs, who's who's

94
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,279
Speaker 1: having his revenge game against the Minnesota Vikings. Uh, he

95
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 1: went out there and he outshined him. And and that's

96
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 1: nothing against Stefon did, because he played a heck of

97
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 1: a game itself. Von Miller played a heck of a game.

98
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,600
Speaker 1: But Kirk Cousins thirty for fifty three, fifty seven, a touchdown,

99
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 1: two interceptions. Uh, he ended with that offense. You know,

100
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: he made some big players down stretched, some big throws

101
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 1: and justin Jefferson, that one hand kitch that's gonna be

102
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 1: shown for years to going forward. I mean, you can

103
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,479
Speaker 1: say what you want there eight and one. They're leading

104
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,679
Speaker 1: that division and they're walking away from the Green Bay Packers,

105
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,279
Speaker 1: and there they certainly are, and they're doing with the

106
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: balance ta. You know, Dalvin Cook had a great game,

107
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 1: big run. He's playing against his brother, whole family in town.

108
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 1: Patrick Peterson back to his old roots. Two picks and

109
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 1: soon including a game sealer. This Viking team might be

110
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,040
Speaker 1: for real. Um, how far can they climb up your

111
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,039
Speaker 1: power ranks, rich Because I know, I know they're a

112
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 1: team that is just sneaking by win after win. But

113
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 1: are they among the top three elite in this league

114
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 1: at this point? Oh? Yeah, they're definitely among the top three. Um,

115
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 1: you can't. You can't put them over the Philadelphia Eagles

116
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 1: are the Kansas City Chiefs with how they're playing, but

117
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,599
Speaker 1: you can definitely put them in a three spot. Well, Richard,

118
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 1: we saw another doozy. I mean, right before we jumped

119
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: on here today we saw another ote thriller. The Dallas

120
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 1: Cowboys playing at green Bay. Green Bay desperately needs a win,

121
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,720
Speaker 1: and they figure out a way to come out on

122
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 1: top of the three point win an ot against the

123
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: red hot Dallas Cowboys. Richard, At least from my vantage point,

124
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 1: it looked like Green Bay tried to establish a new

125
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,040
Speaker 1: identity with this team, that they went away from the past,

126
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:57,840
Speaker 1: that they just handed the ball to Aaron Jones and

127
00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 1: they say, you go to work and we're gonna fill it.

128
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 1: And on the back end, Aaron Aaron Rodgers only through

129
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 1: the ball seven times in the first half. I mean,

130
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: your takeaways from this game, is green Bay back to

131
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,839
Speaker 1: some degree? No, no, but they but but it shows

132
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 1: how how how incomplete that the Dallas Cowboys are, um,

133
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 1: and they're not ready for the spot by, they're not

134
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 1: ready for the top pot. Um. They showed a lot

135
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 1: of holes. You know. Aaron Rodgers played well, Um, but

136
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:26,839
Speaker 1: they ran the ball. Christian Watson, after some very big struggles,

137
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 1: played a heck of a game. Three reception touchdowns, the

138
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: first rookie with three reception touchdown since Randy Moss in

139
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 1: the game. UM, and he had a hundred yards and

140
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: that was really cool. Um. Dak Prescott struggled to interceptions,

141
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,599
Speaker 1: UM two costs. The interceptions. Aaron Jones played really well,

142
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 1: he played confident, Uh, and they can win like this.

143
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: You know who didn't struggle again, rich Our boy Tony

144
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: Pollard rushes hundred fifteen yards a Toddy. I mean, give

145
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 1: this man the rock. Maybe maybe something different works out

146
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 1: if they give that ball ball to him on more

147
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 1: consistent basis like they are. But like you said, rich

148
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 1: I mean, it seems like Dak Prescott has a lot

149
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 1: of fold on his shoulders with this game. They let

150
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 1: this one slip away. They had a two score lead

151
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 1: going down the stretch of this game and just frankly

152
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 1: blew it and Christian Watson kudos to him. Four receptions

153
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 1: a hundred and seven yards. Three Toddies could have had

154
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 1: a fourth Tuddy. I mean he he got ball lost

155
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 1: in the lights or something on that one go route.

156
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 1: But Richard, this team, you know, it's interesting to see

157
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: how they adapt because I don't think I don't think

158
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers gonna go down without a fight in this season.

159
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: But you know, like you said, Richard's gonna take a

160
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 1: heck of a lot more than one game at home

161
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 1: to come back. And they host they host the Titans

162
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 1: on Thursday Night Football next week. Rich We're gonna uh

163
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 1: halfway decent game for you to to go down to

164
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 1: the Green Bay. I know Green Bay is not your

165
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 1: favorite spot in the world, but that could be an

166
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: interesting matchup. Yeah, it can definitely be an anteresting match

167
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 1: up and they both need to win. UM. Green Bay

168
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: needs to get closer to and Tennessee just came out

169
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 1: with a big win today against ver Broncos who are

170
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 1: struggling there and kind of a free fall mode. You're

171
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: you're watching UM them struggle and they're getting They're given

172
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,679
Speaker 1: a better pick to the Seattle's Teahawks. As they struggle,

173
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: they're not scoring a lot of points, and you know,

174
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: the blame can be everywhere. Russell Wilson was sacked six times,

175
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: UM fifty passing six yards, but Ryan Tannehill was very

176
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: what solid, you know, fifty five to touchdowns. Derrick Henry

177
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 1: kind of got held in checked for the most part.

178
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 1: That Denver defense is very stout UM Nick Westbrook UM

179
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 1: went off two tuddies, five catches one nineteen and then

180
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 1: the unknowns making huge plays UM and making putting a

181
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:46,440
Speaker 1: lot of pressure on that Denver offense. Original the Tennessee

182
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: is just a mystery to me. I don't know what

183
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: your thoughts on them. We haven't talked a whole lot

184
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 1: about them on this podcast all year. I feel like

185
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 1: I feel this might be the first time we've actually

186
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 1: talked about them. And they're six and three, you know,

187
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: I mean, they seem to do this every year. You

188
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,600
Speaker 1: know that they've they're firmly in the mix of the

189
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 1: FC South. I mean, they seem to be for the

190
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 1: last five years in that mix. And they're doing it

191
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,680
Speaker 1: with a guy and ran it, Ryan Tannehill, which sure's

192
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,319
Speaker 1: a Tier three, Tier four quarterback in this league. But

193
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 1: they're getting it done rich And and it's gonna be

194
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 1: you know, They're gonna go in and then give a

195
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 1: lot of trouble to the Grand Bay Packers on Thursday night.

196
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:22,920

213
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 1: to talk to him to talk about them, but we

214
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 1: have to. I mean, we've talked enough about justin fields

215
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,960
Speaker 1: of the last couple of weeks and the Detroit Lines,

216
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,720
Speaker 1: my hometown Detroit Lines went into Chicago and pulled off

217
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,440
Speaker 1: a win, a miraculous win, a one point win, thirty

218
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 1: one to thirty. But again, I mean, my biggest takeaway

219
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 1: was was how right and identifying how Chicago was so

220
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 1: wrong over this year and they've seemed to take in

221
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 1: your advice and other analyst advice and giving justin fields

222
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,679
Speaker 1: of football. I mean, he's becoming a true problem man.

223
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:52,079
Speaker 1: I mean, if Chicago can tie up some other loose ends,

224
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 1: they easily win this game. I mean they were up

225
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 1: four teen plus points and numerous occasions of this game

226
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 1: and and they just let it get away. Um, do

227
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: you see the trajectory of Justin Fields? Did you think

228
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 1: that he can be a true star in this league

229
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 1: by the right players. He is a star and he's

230
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: playing like a star, you know. I mean, he's ran

231
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:12,560
Speaker 1: for five yards in the past five games, I think,

232
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 1: and that's broke an NFL record for quarterback rushman football.

233
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,440
Speaker 1: And he's beneficial once the football. He's got eleven touchdowns,

234
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 1: one interception. It was calls the pick six today. You know,

235
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,359
Speaker 1: he has to fix that. But he's made the Chicago's

236
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 1: Bears a very watchable football team and a very competitive

237
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 1: football team, and it gives their fans hope for the future.

238
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,559
Speaker 1: They'll they'll pick early in the draft this year. But

239
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,239
Speaker 1: you can see what they have with just the Fields,

240
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 1: No question about that, No question about that. And I

241
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 1: don't know what's happening with the rams Um Cooper Cup

242
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,839
Speaker 1: gets hurt. Um suddenly Matt Stafford's not playing. All of

243
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:48,960
Speaker 1: a sudden, that defense disappears Uh, it's it's it's really strange.

244
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,559
Speaker 1: Two backup quarterback Cope McCoy comes out with a win.

245
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,319
Speaker 1: But it's really a bad look for the Rams with

246
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 1: you know, the high expectations they had coming into the season. Um,

247
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,680
Speaker 1: it's not it's not looking great. How does this happened?

248
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 1: I mean, how truly does this happen? This is a

249
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 1: miraculous fall from grace from the Rams. How does this

250
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 1: even transpire? Rich? I don't know. I wish I could

251
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 1: tell you. I mean, their defense just isn't playing up

252
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,080
Speaker 1: to par. I mean they're battling, but offensively, they just

253
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 1: don't have answers. They don't have anybody that can can

254
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 1: separate outside of Cooper Cup. And eventually that was gonna

255
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 1: come up back and bite you. You know last year

256
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: they got away with it. He had most targets in

257
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 1: the league, the most catches, most yards, triple Carron winner. Um,

258
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 1: NFL defense is adjusted. They made the adjustments and now

259
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: they have to find out another way to get points

260
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 1: on the board. Well, and that injury. The Cooper Cup

261
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 1: did not look good. I mean the dB undercut him.

262
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,120
Speaker 1: Um kind of a sketchy play. I don't know what

263
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,840
Speaker 1: his prodignosis is but it certainly doesn't look like he's

264
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 1: gonna be playing uh next week, Um, Richard, they're they're

265
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 1: at the Saints. I mean, did they possibly lose this game?

266
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 1: I mean they could. You know, the Saints are kind

267
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 1: of a um, they're a mystery um weekend and week out.

268
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 1: You know, they just lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers. But

269
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 1: you know they can play well some games. Some games

270
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 1: they don't show up. So, um, maybe they played Jamis

271
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 1: Winston and they got a puncher's chance. Um. But it's

272
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 1: just a weird year in the Nastional Football League. Honestly,

273
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 1: it's a weird year, and uh, the playoffs are probably

274
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 1: gonna be more weird. It's finally some parody. There's true parody,

275
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 1: and tomorrow it's game is gonna be one of consistent parody.

276
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 1: I mean, we got the l A Chargers going against

277
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,960
Speaker 1: your San Francisco forty Niners. This gives San fran an

278
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 1: opportunity to get right back in the thick of things

279
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 1: in that division. Um. I know you've been talking about

280
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 1: it for the last several weeks. As soon as they

281
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 1: get healthy, watch out. You know, they add somebody like

282
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 1: CMC they get Debo coming off an injury. Hopefully he's back.

283
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 1: I mean, Brandon a Juke's gotta had an opportunity the

284
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks to be the man, and he's

285
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 1: taken the reins and ran with it. George Kittle's come

286
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 1: back and played well. Now they're just getting there to

287
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 1: defense back and healthy. Um. I want to hear your

288
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:56,599
Speaker 1: thoughts on the future ahead and this season for the

289
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 1: forty Niners on and that everything is right in front

290
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 1: of him. They gotta play well. They gotta win these

291
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 1: ball games tonight. Tonight's a big game against the l

292
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: A Chargers. They have to be able to run the

293
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 1: football at late charges. That are one of the worst

294
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 1: defenses against the run, so they have to establish that.

295
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey has been a god sending for Kyle Shanahan

296
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 1: and this offense. They're getting healthy at the right time

297
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 1: and they still don't have their garm step back, which

298
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 1: is huge for that defense. But when they get him back,

299
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 1: I just don't see them getting beat consistently. Um. But

300
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,640
Speaker 1: they they're behind a ball you know. They they don't

301
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 1: have a lot of margin forever error. They're gonna have

302
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: to fight through on the road in the playoffs and

303
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 1: they're gonna have to win these games. What do we

304
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: have a lot for us ahead? I know we're gonna

305
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 1: be getting into power ranks, you know, coming in the

306
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 1: middle of this week. But um, i'll let you sign

307
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 1: us off here on on this week's episode and and

308
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 1: we'll look forward to our guests on Tuesday. Well, I

309
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 1: appreciate it. We got we got some it's gonna be

310
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 1: shaken up in the power rankings. The Miami Dolphins and uh,

311
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 1: you know f A. Jeff Wilson Jr. Has changed that team,

312
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 1: Um in a big way. Um, you didn't think they

313
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 1: could get better. I don't think a lot of people

314
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 1: saw that as a huge move, but it's been paying dividends.

315
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 1: He had a hundred nineteen today on seventeen carries. Um,

316
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 1: they're a dangerous team. And with the Buffalo Bills kind

317
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 1: of in free fall, they're making a difference. And then

318
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 1: the Jets. The Jets just just they had a week

319
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 1: off and they they had a positive week off, you know,

320
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 1: with with the Buffalo Bills losing, you know, they're all

321
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 1: in the tie for first in this division. And that's huge.

322
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 1: You know, nobody expected that coming into the season. Um,

323
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 1: going forward, it's gonna be interesting. These teams are gonna

324
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 1: have to fight. The FC is much more of a

325
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 1: dog fight than anybody expect. That can't wait? Well, I

326
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:32,480
Speaker 1: mean you brought it up and and before we sign off,

327
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: I do want to touch on the Dolphins. They seem

328
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 1: to be this this replicated San Francisco forty Niners offense

329
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 1: with maybe some more high pro flyer file receivers with

330
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill and and Jalen Waddle. Um, what is the

331
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 1: limit for this team? Are they legitimate a FC title contenders?

332
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: I mean, this guy's the limit. I mean, they haven't

333
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,720
Speaker 1: lost many games with two of starting under center this season.

334
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: And he's got such a rapport with Waddle in Tyreeke

335
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:00,880
Speaker 1: and Jeff Wilson Jr. Has added the whole new element.

336
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 1: He and Rhine are you know, uh two man punch

337
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 1: that m rivals some of the best in the National

338
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 1: Football League right now. I think, Um, they they are

339
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:13,400
Speaker 1: an opportunistic defense. They brought Bradley Chubb in to show

340
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 1: up that uh that defensive line and uh it's it's

341
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 1: God's limit. Well, Richard, that that concludes our Sunday recap
