1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,960 Speaker 1: The ball comes out of the hands of Rogers. Minutes 2 00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:09,400 Speaker 1: we're covered in it in zone litter. Floyd just pass 3 00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: it is for the touchdown. De Fronte Adams, It's Adams 4 00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:22,320 Speaker 1: again for the touchdown. Flips it. It's all It is 5 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:29,040 Speaker 1: a touchdown. Yes, the velvet tones of Jim Nance and 6 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:33,559 Speaker 1: the CBS NFL network simulcast. Yes. The Green Bay Packers 7 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:38,559 Speaker 1: got it together just in time on Thursday Night, scoring 8 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:42,640 Speaker 1: uh consecutive touchdown drives, three straight touchdown drives in the 9 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 1: second half after a sack strip fumble put the Bears 10 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 1: ahead temporarily early in the third quarter. In the end 11 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,600 Speaker 1: a twenty six to ten victory four the Packers who 12 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 1: moved to four and to Dan Hans is here alongside 13 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 1: Chris Westling West. It looked pretty grim when Leonard Floyd 14 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 1: recovered that ball in the end zone. Either blue Birds 15 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 1: are back out at lambeau Field. But Aaron Rodgers and 16 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,399 Speaker 1: the Packers they put things back together and save some 17 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: face tonight. Packers always score on the opening drive of 18 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: the game because they have the benefit of scripted plays, 19 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 1: which allows Aaron Rodgers to be more decisive and get 20 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:27,039 Speaker 1: rid of the ball faster. Then they lapsed into sandlot 21 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: ball after that. And that's what. It shouldn't take nearly 22 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 1: three quarters for Aaron Rodgers to find his rhythm against 23 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 1: an undermanned, frankly not so good Bears defense, and that's 24 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 1: what happened tonight. I think optimists will say they fixed 25 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 1: their problems in the second half. I don't think they did. Yeah, 26 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 1: it was almost a gimme. The game was already you know, 27 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 1: stacked in the Packers favor, the fact that they were 28 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: a superior team, uh, the fact that they were at home, 29 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 1: the fact that it's Thursday night where the home team 30 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 1: usually thrives. And then Brian Hoyer gets his left arms 31 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 1: snapped on by a Clay Matthew his helmet shot, and 32 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: enter Matt Barkley, who was just dreadful in this game, 33 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 1: six of fifteen for eighty one yards and to two interceptions. 34 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:09,839 Speaker 1: So the Bears essentially had no chance in this game 35 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 1: when you look at it. So if anybody you know, 36 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: we're not handing out lollipops around here for the Packers effort, 37 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: but you do at least give them credit for looking 38 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 1: like some semblance of an offense that is tough to handle, 39 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: because they did score touchdowns, like I said, in three 40 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: straight UH possessions in the second half to put the 41 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:32,080 Speaker 1: game away. Rogers, UH, Davante Adams and Time on Contgomery 42 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 1: UH and UH Randall cop those were the three guys 43 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,920 Speaker 1: that he relied on. At one point, I tweeted, UH, 44 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: you know when they were in the red zone, this 45 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: is where they really missed Jordy Nelson And honestly, West, 46 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: it feels like Jordy Nelson must not be even close 47 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: to the same guy anymore for him to not blow 48 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: up in this game. I don't think he is the 49 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: same guy. He certainly doesn't have Rogers trust. There were 50 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,359 Speaker 1: at least two times when Nelson broke open and Rodgers 51 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,079 Speaker 1: didn't see him. But the the stats are gonna be misleading. 52 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 1: In this game, that trio of Packers receivers joined the 53 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:05,920 Speaker 1: ninety Patriots as the only trio ever to have ten 54 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: receptions a piece in a game. And that's because Time, 55 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: Montgomery and Randall Cob were used as as basically surrogates 56 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 1: for the running game short passes within five to six 57 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: yards of the line of scrimmage. Davante Adams was the 58 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 1: only one getting open consistently beyond eight or nine yards, 59 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 1: and I don't know if that's something that can they 60 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: can do going forward. Next week is a potential shootout 61 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 1: in Atlanta. So you figured without Eddie Lacy, without James Starks, 62 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 1: they're gonna do the same method of attack and in 63 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 1: that in that game, very weird, weird performance by their 64 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: offense because and Aaron Rodgers was very frustrated um early 65 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: on in this game. Uh you know, he threw third 66 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: He had thirty nine completions in this game, which was 67 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: a franchise record, but it took until his fifty five 68 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: pass of the game to go over three hundred yards, 69 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: which really again puts into respective how this is not 70 00:03:58,080 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: was in the gabber zone. He was in the gabbered 71 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: n for the game, which is outrageous. Um. But that's 72 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: just what the Packers are right now. They are not 73 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: an explosive team to watch. And they left some plays 74 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: on the Randall cop left two touchdowns on the field 75 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: in the first half, which speaks to again and I 76 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 1: think Cobbs and Night it was good defense. We should 77 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: say that, but I don't know. I want to say 78 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: a lot of receivers make that play, but I think 79 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 1: Randall Cobb of two years ago makes those plays at 80 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: least one of them to let, to let two of 81 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: those opportunities, so instead of four teen, you get six 82 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: off that. That's the kind of stuff that has been 83 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,799 Speaker 1: haunting the Packers. But you know, we can't kill the Packers. 84 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 1: They took care of business in this game. And uh, 85 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,720 Speaker 1: their their backfield is something to watch here. I thought 86 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 1: Ti Montgomery was still weird to watch a number eighty 87 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 1: eight getting the ball stuck in his gut on draw 88 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: plays and things of that nature. But we might see 89 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: a lot more of that because Montgomery did a nice job. 90 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: Rookie Don Jackson, who they promoted from the practice squad, 91 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 1: he he left just two carries and then left with 92 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: the left hand injury. We don't know what's going on 93 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 1: with him. So they're running game. We don't know what 94 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 1: to expect from Green Bay's running attack. It's gonna be 95 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers uh and this passing game that's gonna have 96 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,479 Speaker 1: to lead them. Let's see if they're up to the 97 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 1: task against better uh opposition. They serve notice about six 98 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 1: years ago that they had a scorched earth policy against 99 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 1: defensive backfields in Atlanta in the playoffs when they just exploded. 100 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: Maybe they can recapture that next week in Atlanta. I 101 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 1: don't I doubt it, but we'll see. We'll see. In 102 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 1: one last note, nineteen penalties for one and sixty four 103 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 1: yards in this game. Another little ugly subplot of primetime football. 104 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 1: Clean it up, guys. All right, that's the Thursday night 105 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 1: football game. Now, what's what we're gonna do here? Uh? 106 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: You and I are going to throw to you and 107 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: I and Connie Fox and let's do it. We'll preview 108 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 1: all the games in week number seven. Let's do it. 109 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 1: The Around the NFL Podcast does want to make flowers today? 110 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,799 Speaker 1: Welcome back to another edition of the Around the FL Podcast. 111 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 1: My name is Dan Hansas, and I am joined by 112 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: a room filled with some heroes, Connie Fox, Colleen Wolf, 113 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: and Christopher Westling.

Just so, I'm doing a 118 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 1: TV hit on NFL Network with Steve Weisch. They kind 119 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: of looked like a crime fighting duo from a pilot 120 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 1: that was never picked up Buddy Cops kind of. Yeah, 121 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: he did one with us on NFL. Now he was 122 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: standing in front of Big Ben. He was in a 123 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 1: black overcode. No where do you get that? I don't know, 124 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: it's weird. I have to talk to talk to him 125 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: about his microphone placement too high on his face. We'll 126 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 1: talk to that. We'll talk about that a lot of 127 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 1: get to Mark not with us today. Uh, he will 128 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 1: be uh hopefully back with us on Sunday, so that 129 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: leaves the triplets. I don't know if we've ever done 130 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: Annie Zeus show before. This is a little, a little different. 131 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: It's been a fun night. Yeah. Today started, by the way, 132 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: with me turning the corner into like the Valet parking 133 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: lot area, and there's Connie Fox getting out of her 134 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: car and I was ninety eight percent sure it was. 135 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: Colleen says like, oh, this is funny. So on my 136 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: car radio, on my serious there was a cold Play 137 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: song playing, Uh, you know the one that goes he 138 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 1: blasts it. I start turning it up louder and just 139 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: to see how Colin reacts, and she won't react to it, 140 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: and I turn it up louder until the point where 141 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: it's like filling up the entire NFL that we're parking lot, 142 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 1: and she never turns around. And then I was thinking 143 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: about this actually after we spoke about it, because you 144 00:07:57,520 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: said you didn't want to turn around because you thought 145 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 1: that might be some one trying to get your attention 146 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 1: by being cool. No. No, I meant like I didn't 147 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: know if somebody was doing that for real, And then 148 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: I just didn't really I wasn't sure I wanted to 149 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: talk to that person. I was gonna say, like, that's 150 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: kind of like you're from Philly, Um, I'm from New York. 151 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 1: Spent time at the Jersey Shore. That was kind of 152 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: a move, like people would like rip their music and 153 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: pull up totally the ladies. And maybe Colleen is a 154 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: woman that you lived by the Jersey Shore. I'm sure 155 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 1: that was done to you many times, and maybe that 156 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 1: was you shutting it out. Maybe that was like a 157 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: callback of my subconscious But also I just want to 158 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: add that Dan comes gets out of his car with 159 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 1: a green solo cup, no shoes on, and like, what 160 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 1: are you doing blaring cold Play? A little bit eccentric 161 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 1: entrance today? Yeah? Better moved by. You just have to 162 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: turn around, don't even acknowledge, just hope it goes in 163 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:02,079 Speaker 1: did my own business? Today is the Thursday edition of 164 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 1: the Around the NFL podcast, sponsored and brought to you 165 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 1: by Mr Flames Economics class in v Haigue, the Netherlands. 166 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 1: And I should report that someone from the advertising department 167 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 1: of this company did reach out to me yesterday. Uh 168 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 1: in a completely perplexed state. What is who is this? 169 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 1: Is this a real thing? What was Mark talking about 170 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 1: on the last show during his live read? And I 171 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 1: just calmly explained exactly what it was, that it was 172 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 1: absolutely legitimate. We have a sponsor and it is Mr 173 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 1: far Today. You heard at the top of the show, 174 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 1: well you heard me and you heard Chris Westling as 175 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 1: we broke down the Thursday night recap Bears at Packers, 176 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:58,839 Speaker 1: filling in for Greg of course. Uh So now we 177 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 1: have a lot of other games to get to. In fact, 178 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: with the Dallas Cowboys and Carolina Panthers on by, that 179 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 1: leaves dirty teams uh too already played. So that means 180 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 1: there are four team games to talk about, nicely done 181 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 1: the same thing every week. So I at this point 182 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 1: I should not even have to be thinking about it. 183 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 1: So why don't we get into it, folks? And uh, 184 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: why don't we start We'll do you know, usually to 185 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 1: go in time order and the London game, which by 186 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 1: the way, it takes place at twicken Numb Stadium. No, no, Ham, 187 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:38,439 Speaker 1: think it's Ham. People that aren't plugged in twick it 188 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 1: twicken what just call it Twickers for short, like they 189 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: do in London. Twickers Twickers going to the Twicks. Yeah, 190 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:47,079 Speaker 1: that's it. Okay. Anyway, usually do the games and in 191 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: order of when they're played. But we're gonna push it 192 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: back a little bit. So let's start with the one 193 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: pm games here in America UM, the Home of the Brave, 194 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: in the Land of the Free UM. And we'll start 195 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 1: Colleen Wolf with all the Saints who are heading to 196 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 1: Kansas City, uh to face the can't Well they're facing 197 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs, and which makes sense. Uh, the 198 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,439 Speaker 1: Saints are a team they cannot stop anybody. I mean 199 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 1: we know that, but the Chiefs, no one is going 200 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,439 Speaker 1: to confuse them with a dynamic as a dynamic team. 201 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 1: So what are your thoughts about this game? And where 202 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: does Jamal Charles fit into this offense? In case alright. 203 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,319 Speaker 1: So sure the Chiefs. You might look at them and 204 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 1: think they're not a dynamic team, but I think that 205 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 1: they'll be able to run the ball well in this 206 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: game because they're playing the Saints. So Jonathan Stewart did 207 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,679 Speaker 1: it last week. I think Spencer Ware and Charles Jamal 208 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: Charles are much more effective than Stewart, so I think 209 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 1: they'll be able to do well on the ground there. Plus, 210 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,960 Speaker 1: the Saints are not good against tight ends, so they 211 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: haven't been all year. I think that Travis Kelsey could 212 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 1: have a big day there, um because their linebackers have 213 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 1: just struggled so much. They I don't know what's going 214 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 1: on with them, um all. On the other side of things, 215 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 1: you have Drew Brees that I feel like the Kansas 216 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 1: City defense it's just not nearly as dominant as it 217 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,200 Speaker 1: used to be, especially with Justin Houston out. And then 218 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: you know you have mark Ingram who could actually do 219 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,839 Speaker 1: well on the ground if Alan Bailey is out. So 220 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 1: you have a lot of differences here with Justin Houston. 221 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 1: He could have come off the pop this week if 222 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: he was ready, but I don't think he's ready. That's right, right, Levin. 223 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: They're eligible, Yeah, I don't know if we're gonna see 224 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 1: Justin Houston, and even if we did, it's not like 225 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 1: he was gonna have a large role immediately on the 226 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 1: side of defense, right, And so when you just have 227 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: Marcus Peters there in that secondary, I think that the 228 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 1: Saints have way too many options just for Marcus Peters 229 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 1: to sort of defend um. I think they really miss 230 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 1: Seawan Smith at this point. So the secondary has sort 231 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,680 Speaker 1: of been a little spotty. But I like the Chiefs 232 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 1: in this game. Yeah, the Saints have averaged almost ten 233 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 1: more points at home than on the road over the 234 00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 1: last three years. That's a problem. And when you mentioned 235 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: in their defense, it's not just that they have trouble 236 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 1: covering and they can't stop the run. When they do cover, 237 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: all you have to do is do what Cam Newton 238 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 1: did last week. Throw it up for clip grabs and 239 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 1: near their goal line, you get past interference calls and 240 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: then have Jonathan Stewart running in that was that was 241 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 1: their offense last week. The Panther's offense was just get 242 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 1: past interference calls on the Saints uh sub optimal cornerbacks. 243 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,200 Speaker 1: It's it's the same old story with the Saints. They 244 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 1: are second in total offense in the league, second and 245 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 1: scoring first and passing uh. And yet here we are, 246 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 1: we're thirty first, and total defense we're last, and scoring 247 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 1: thirty first and passing defense. They're fatally flawed team. And 248 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 1: that's why I like the Chiefs in this game, who 249 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 1: are three and two. By the way, I liked I 250 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 1: like them at home. I always liked them at home. 251 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 1: But against the A team with this much um uh, 252 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 1: this many flaws on the defensive side of the ball, 253 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,839 Speaker 1: I just don't see the Saints winning many road games 254 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 1: all season. No, they're not built to do that. They 255 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 1: play basketball when they're at home, and they can't play 256 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 1: that stile outdoors. Yeah, I agreed with Marks Rant. I 257 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 1: think it was last week about the Saints and how 258 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: they're they're boring to watch. I mean, they're putting up points, 259 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,680 Speaker 1: but it's the same thing every single year with them, 260 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,199 Speaker 1: and it's like, at what point do you finally actually 261 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,720 Speaker 1: get a defense that can play and defend a team. 262 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: It's like when everybody loves Raymond hit like it's eighth 263 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 1: season and there are people that still liked watching Everybody 264 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: loves Raymond, But who are those people? Are they Yeah, 265 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 1: everybody else is kind of like, all right, we've seen 266 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: this everything. So the show wasn't even good after the 267 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: third or fourth season. Let's just move on. The Saints 268 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 1: are the everybody loves Raymond in the NFL. I knew 269 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 1: some girls who thought that Ray Romano was hot. No, 270 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 1: who thought that the mom on that show was hilarious, 271 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 1: And they were just they were the biggest fan of 272 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 1: the mom. And I was just like, you can't watch 273 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: that show. Stop Patricia Heaton. I believe that. No. I 274 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 1: meant raised mom, But Patricia Patricia Heaton was just a pure, 275 00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 1: wanton evil. I've never seen the program myself. Oh she was, 276 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 1: she did. She spent the whole show yelling at Ray 277 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 1: It was awful. Yes, you get still worked up about 278 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 1: Everybody Loves Well, you know, you know my theory on 279 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 1: nineties television shows. They exist, All sitcoms from nine exist 280 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 1: only to pound the idea into females heads that all 281 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: men are cavemen and you must be the stronger one 282 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: in the relationship. That's a strong opinion. All right, let's 283 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: move on. Love on West gets fired up on random stuff, 284 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: comes go back and watch them all. Every man is 285 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: an idiot. Who can't do anything right. Um, let's move on. 286 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 1: I like that. I've heard you say the theory before correct. 287 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 1: I will watch closely next time I watch at nineties sitcom, uh, 288 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 1: to see for myself if that's true. Let's move on 289 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: a a f C South matchup, the a f C South, 290 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 1: which Kylie and I don't know if you're aware is 291 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: but uh, this one is a cults at Titans, and 292 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what West. I'm smart and a little bit. 293 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 1: Nobody cares about anybody's fantasy teams. But I did drop 294 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 1: Marcus Mariota to pick up Tony Romo three weeks ago, 295 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 1: stup all my budget, and I said, oh, this is 296 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 1: a beautiful move. It's gonna work out. It's gonna be 297 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 1: the biggest bang fest ever because not only is Marcus 298 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: Mariota Mariota again, Tony Romo and gonna play Daddy's in 299 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: trouble West Mariota back. Okay, you would think so by 300 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 1: the passer ratings and the touchdowns. He missed a lot 301 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 1: of throws last week, a lot of easy throws. They 302 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: would have helped his receivers get run, get yards after 303 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 1: the catch, and he hits some big throws. Both of 304 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 1: them were diving catches by Kendall Wright and Richard Matthews. 305 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 1: I don't think Mariota is back. I don't think he's 306 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 1: comfortable yet in this offense. The results are a little 307 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 1: bit better, but he's also playing some stinking dog teams. 308 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 1: Is kendall Right back? Kendall Right is back, and he 309 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 1: is their best receiver. And you know, on the Cult 310 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: side of the ball there, you could go through a 311 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 1: whole season and I'll find too many losses that were 312 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 1: as stomach punch bad had as Sunday nights a game, 313 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 1: the game was over against a Houston Texans team where 314 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 1: they showed no signs of life their entire home fan 315 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,880 Speaker 1: base that poured out of that building. Fourteen point lead 316 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 1: for the Cults of five minutes ago, and they don't 317 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 1: find a way. Uh, we might be talking about a 318 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: little bit of a hot butt situation. Uh in Indianapolis 319 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 1: right now. They gotta win some games. And if if 320 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 1: they go into Tennessee and fall to two and five, 321 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: I can't with this drop. This drop is so uncomfortable. 322 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 1: Every time I hear it when I'm not here, it 323 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 1: makes me so skittish. I can't I can't listen. That's 324 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: Chaz Paganos, but it's a fake whimper. That's it is 325 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,399 Speaker 1: what it is, that's life in the NFL West. Just 326 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:46,640 Speaker 1: Chuck Pogano in trouble. If they can't find a way 327 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: to win this game. He should be GM should be 328 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: in trouble. Everybody should be in trouble except the quarterback 329 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 1: in the running back. Yeah, they're not gonna be able 330 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:55,920 Speaker 1: to run the ball like they did last week Frank Gore, 331 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 1: he went off. But I feel like the Titans have 332 00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 1: been able to to do well against the run they have. 333 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 1: It's gonna be another fifty five games or so before 334 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: they have a yard rusher. This analysis isn't really hard. 335 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,439 Speaker 1: The Titans have back to back games of six sacks 336 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: and the Colts Andrew Luck has been sacked twenty three times, 337 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 1: the most of any quarterback in the NFL. Seems like 338 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: it might be a problem for the Colts offensive line 339 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 1: in this game. And one last thing before we get 340 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 1: out of this game, because you know, like I said, 341 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 1: this is abut game. But um de Marco Murray explained 342 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 1: this to me. Wes, Yes, the Cowboys drove him into 343 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: the ground two years ago. And he didn't look like 344 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 1: the same guy last year. Played an entire season. Uh 345 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 1: looks slow. Couldn't get to the whole, couldn't get around 346 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 1: the corner. And now all of a sudden he's back 347 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 1: to uh, the two thousand fourteen version, and he's two 348 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 1: years older. But what am I missing here? How did 349 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,440 Speaker 1: this happen? Several things going on here. By the end 350 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 1: of the two thousand and fourteen season, in which he 351 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 1: was Offensive Player of the Year, you could see his 352 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,879 Speaker 1: legs were gone. The Cowboys that used him up. You 353 00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:59,679 Speaker 1: can't carry the ball, You can't touch the ball five 354 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: hundred times in the season, and he touched the ball 355 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 1: four ninety seven times. So you see this a lot 356 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 1: with guys who have four hundred touches in a season. 357 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 1: They're terrible the next year because their legs are gone 358 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 1: and they're injured for a good port portion of year, 359 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 1: and then they bounced back to a certain degree the 360 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 1: next year. Maybe not all the way back. And also 361 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 1: Chip Kelly's offense wasn't suitable for him. Maybe they should 362 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 1: keep Derrick Henry a little bit more involved, just to 363 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 1: keep ms absolutely remember how excited everyone was about that 364 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,639 Speaker 1: one to punch and then Murray looks so good and 365 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 1: almost it made him made Henry irrelevant. But maybe that's 366 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 1: maybe they'll do it this week because Lamar Miller he 367 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 1: went off last week, he did well against them, So 368 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,640 Speaker 1: maybe this is the week that they get both DeMarco 369 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,119 Speaker 1: and Derrick Henry involved again. Anybody can run on the 370 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 1: cool exactly. Let's move on and we'll talk about what 371 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:45,880 Speaker 1: might be one of the games of the week, if 372 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 1: not the game of the week at least in the NFC. 373 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 1: The Minnesota Vikings five and oh. Coming off their bye week, 374 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:55,880 Speaker 1: they head to Philadelphia to face the Eagles. And the Eagles, 375 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 1: who were three and oh are now three and two 376 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 1: and uh s uh? What in your mind has separated 377 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,199 Speaker 1: the Eagles of the first three weeks from the Eagles 378 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 1: that that have lost their last two games? What has changed? 379 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 1: The offensive line? Big V is a problem. Big V 380 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: by Tie playing right tackle in place of suspended Lane Johnson, 381 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 1: got worked over by Ryan Carrigan last week. Carrigan had 382 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 1: three sex in the first half alone. Did you see 383 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: his jersey after the first player the game? It looked 384 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: like it went through a shredder. Carson Wentz, I thought 385 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 1: you're talking at large V. L Large Large V was 386 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 1: an issue. And Jason Kelsey, the center, has had a 387 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 1: pretty bad year. He's been good in the past. Jason 388 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 1: Peters isn't really himself anymore as all pro self. When 389 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,640 Speaker 1: everybody was healthy and playing well, you could hide Kelsey. 390 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 1: Peters could play just well enough, but you had Lane 391 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:49,359 Speaker 1: Johnson and both guards playing at a really high level. 392 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 1: Now you've got two or three problem areas on that line, 393 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: and that is a recipe for disaster. You make the 394 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,640 Speaker 1: Redskins look like a ferocious pass rushing team. Now you've 395 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 1: got the Vikings coming in. This is a This is 396 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 1: the kind of matchup that can lose a game. Then 397 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: I'm worried about Carson Wentz in this game. Just with 398 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 1: you have Daniel Hunter, who's going to be going after 399 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 1: big V Large V. Giant byes. And then like you said, 400 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 1: Jason Kelsey, I mean, he's gonna have Lindval Joseph coming 401 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 1: at him. Limbal Joseph can bench press Kelsey, lift him 402 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 1: up over his head and just throw him. I mean, 403 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 1: Kelsey is the lightest center in the league, and Limball 404 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 1: Joseph is the best nose tackle in the league. It's 405 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:31,640 Speaker 1: a bad match. Well here, you know, colleg what what from? 406 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: You're from vi Philly and you've been through a lot 407 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,159 Speaker 1: of tough times with the Eagles, and tell tell me 408 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 1: what I've been through in my life, through a lot 409 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,680 Speaker 1: of highs under Andy Reid and a lot of lows. 410 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:47,159 Speaker 1: And you subscribe to the notion that what must what 411 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: goes up, must come down. So you're thinking now that 412 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 1: Eagles are gonna tank? Just everything started so well. But 413 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:54,680 Speaker 1: you know what, I don't think the Eagles are gonna 414 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 1: take I would like ever to hear everyone's game pick 415 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 1: on this one, but my pick here is the Philadelphia Eagles. 416 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,360 Speaker 1: I think Vikings. Really, I think the Vikings are due 417 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: for a loss. I respect the Vikings. I really like 418 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 1: what they've seen. After all, they are the team of 419 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:17,199 Speaker 1: a t L team team graphic. Is this like a 420 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:20,640 Speaker 1: Sam Bradford thing that you have going on here? Listen? 421 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 1: Do I trust Sam Bradford? Not totally. Do I trust 422 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 1: him on the road, not entirely. This is on the road, 423 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 1: but he's used to playing in this but he played 424 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 1: absolutely at a mediocre level when he was in this building. 425 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 1: I'm just saying I think the Vikings are gonna get 426 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 1: picked off. And I think the Eagles are a legitimately 427 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 1: good team and at home coming off two losses. I 428 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,199 Speaker 1: like the spot for Philly here. The one thing I 429 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 1: will agree with you about is Sam Bradford. He knows 430 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: the defense's weakness is probably better than anybody, so he 431 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 1: knows that he's going to be able to exploit the 432 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,640 Speaker 1: heck out of that secondary plus say hell, you could 433 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: say hell, I don't know, can I A? All right, 434 00:22:55,800 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 1: He's gonna exploit the hell out of them even but 435 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 1: this is this is going all over the place. But 436 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 1: you have isn't stuff on Digg is gonna be back 437 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,359 Speaker 1: to in this game? Should for? The theology podcast was 438 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: all right, and we saw de Shawan Jackson and Pierre 439 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:15,680 Speaker 1: Garson what they did last week against the Eagles. So look, 440 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,160 Speaker 1: I think that Sam Bradford and Steffon Diggs will probably 441 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,639 Speaker 1: do the same. But I mean, I'm picking the Vikings 442 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: in this game. I think the slide is real. I 443 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 1: think the Eagles are really and this matchup is terrible 444 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 1: for them. I like the Vikings convincingly. Okay, well I'll 445 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:34,840 Speaker 1: show you guys. Is this your your lock? No? No, no, no, 446 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 1: I'm not locking it up, you asked me, if I'm 447 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:39,720 Speaker 1: locking it up. I am not locking it up. Let's 448 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 1: move on and we'll talk about a f C North 449 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,679 Speaker 1: battle between the Cleveland Browns oh and six wouldn't it 450 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: be fitting, by the way, and not a fitting in 451 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,159 Speaker 1: a great way and not one that would but they 452 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 1: get their first win? No, well, that would be somewhat 453 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 1: fitting too, But wouldn't it be so Brown's If the 454 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 1: Calves win the NBA title and then the Indians, who 455 00:23:59,920 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: are now in the World Series, win Baseball's World Championship, 456 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 1: and then the Browns drop an oh and sixteen, that 457 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:12,439 Speaker 1: would probably be though rock bottom, you would think, finally 458 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 1: rock bottom. A long way to go. If if there 459 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:17,959 Speaker 1: was a year that they were going to do it, 460 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 1: it would definitely be this year. In that very sismically, 461 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,679 Speaker 1: We're going to truly find out if God hates the 462 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 1: Browns if that were to happen. But a long way 463 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:31,119 Speaker 1: to go for both and save it for theology. The 464 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 1: u S. You roll in here with your handsome Henley 465 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 1: shirt today and you and your breast cancer wearing his 466 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 1: pin centered on your shirt, and you're talking about God 467 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:44,879 Speaker 1: and Hell and the things that you don't believe in 468 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 1: will believe in this. The Cleveland Browns transition are better 469 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 1: than an O and six team on some level. They're 470 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 1: competitive and Cincinnati they haven't been the Bengals this year, 471 00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 1: not the Bengals of last year. Anyway, No, still waiting 472 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,919 Speaker 1: for Tyler Effort to be back. He said today that 473 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 1: he's ready. He participated in eleven and eleven on eleventh today. Um, 474 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 1: but he really hasn't obviously been himself because first it 475 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,359 Speaker 1: was the ankle, then it was the back. But today 476 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 1: he said that his ankle it feels great. So now 477 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:17,879 Speaker 1: he's just sort of waiting on the back. And it 478 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 1: was pouring today at practice and he was able to cut, 479 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 1: he was able to plant that foot. Um, so he's 480 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:25,679 Speaker 1: sort of nursing him his way back. It's obviously not 481 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 1: his decision whether or not he'll be on the field, 482 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 1: So if he is on the field on Sunday, he'll 483 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 1: probably be limited, I would think. Um, but this is 484 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: a good matchup for a j Green because Joe Hayden 485 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 1: he missed practice again today, so I think it would 486 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 1: probably be him against like Tracy Howard. Is that who 487 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,360 Speaker 1: is there? So I don't know somebody, somebody who I'm 488 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,159 Speaker 1: not sure and that says a lot. So you have 489 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:53,399 Speaker 1: a j Green against him. And look, the Browns did 490 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 1: a good job with DeMarco, so Jeremy Hill he's not. 491 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: They probably won't run the ball well, so it's going 492 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,919 Speaker 1: to be all in the air. Brown's held DeMarco Murray 493 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 1: down in large part because Danny Shelton, the first round 494 00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 1: pick last year, is finally playing great, uh, dominating the 495 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,920 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. He looks like another nucleus player for them. 496 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 1: So I think they're O and six. But they're playing 497 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 1: everyone tough and you're finding building blocks. Christian kirk'sy at 498 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:23,440 Speaker 1: middle linebacker orright inside linebacker, Danny Shelton, Corey Coleman, who 499 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:25,399 Speaker 1: should be back in the next week or two, and 500 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 1: Terrell Prior, who is just jumping over defensive backs to 501 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:32,439 Speaker 1: catch the balls. I think the Browns things are starting 502 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,119 Speaker 1: to look up, even if it's not showing in the 503 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 1: box score. Cody Kessler looks like he's gonna stay in 504 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,840 Speaker 1: the starting lineup even when Josh McCown is ready to return, 505 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:42,680 Speaker 1: which is the right decision here, I think, UH. One 506 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 1: thing to keep an eye and troll Prior such an 507 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 1: important part of this offense. He has a hamstring issue, 508 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:51,120 Speaker 1: has not practiced yet as of Thursday, so we'll see 509 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:53,880 Speaker 1: if he practices and if he does how much on Friday, 510 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 1: so we don't know how much. If they don't have prior. 511 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 1: That's a major hitter there, offense, especially when pieces like go, hey, 512 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:03,119 Speaker 1: well your bill all says, and Gaby I talked to you. 513 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 1: I figure you go, you go for sixty cashes and 514 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 1: yaws and seven twitchdowns. Let's say you disappear. What are 515 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:14,680 Speaker 1: your big guys? He's gonna be around all Sunday. He's 516 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: looking at a mirror by the way, talking to himself. 517 00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:20,160 Speaker 1: There his production lives and dies with Josh McCown. He's 518 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 1: a McCown favorite, the mccount favorite. H And also this 519 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 1: is Hugh Jackson's first game. Uh jacks game, revenge game. 520 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:33,680 Speaker 1: We're really hazy on revenge games here. It's not our thing. Also, 521 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 1: James White was able to run well, so maybe Duke 522 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 1: Johnson will be able to do a good job since 523 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:42,160 Speaker 1: um Carlos Dansby is sort of struggling right now. He's 524 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:46,160 Speaker 1: struggling more in past coverage, struggling mightily in pass coverage. 525 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:49,439 Speaker 1: Perfect did two against the Patriots. There there might be 526 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 1: something to the Hugh Jackson revenge game angle, because word 527 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 1: around the campfire in Cincinnati was that he and Marvin 528 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 1: Lewis had a succession plan in place, that Marvin would 529 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 1: coach another a year or two he would take over 530 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: and Mike Brown mixed it. Whoa succession plans do not. 531 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:09,360 Speaker 1: I'm staring at my shirt. It's a nice shirt. Succession 532 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,160 Speaker 1: plans do not always. Do you want me to get 533 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 1: out of here? You should? I leave you two alone. 534 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: I don't know what the last shirt comment was. I 535 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 1: wasn't even looking at it. I was looking at West. 536 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:22,440 Speaker 1: Succession plans don't always work out. Because once upon a time, 537 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,960 Speaker 1: I will remind everyone in the world that Bill Belichick 538 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 1: was supposed to uh replace Bill Bell Bill Parcels. That 539 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 1: didn't work out for the Jets. Whatever, Let's move on. 540 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 1: The guy resigns on like a cocktail napkin show some class. 541 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 1: That was one of the most bizarre things we've ever 542 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,440 Speaker 1: seen in the NFL. I would love to do that 543 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 1: resign on a cop to Yeah, um okay, Now, as 544 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 1: we said, Greg Rosenthal UH is in London, a hero, 545 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 1: one of the boys. One of the American boys going 546 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 1: overseas saying it's a fight for our country or fight 547 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:07,960 Speaker 1: for the NFL. Cover the NFL. And now we bring 548 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 1: him live from London via the phone, Mr Rosatal, What 549 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 1: is happening? Hey, Rosie? Was my second time today talking 550 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,880 Speaker 1: to Connor by the way, I mean you can call me, 551 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,920 Speaker 1: you know, Connor Colleen. It's late at night here Dan 552 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 1: your barnage accent. I used to think this is kind 553 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:37,840 Speaker 1: of a silly, silly thing that he does, not very accurate. 554 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 1: It's all anyone talks like around here. It's basic chimillions, 555 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 1: Gary barnage is around it, Greg. I appreciate that, and 556 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 1: it's funny. Do you hear your theme song by the way, 557 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 1: I hear its vaguely. I hear it lightly, yes, like um, 558 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 1: there's a tambourine involved. I just did a barnage right 559 00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 1: before you came on, so it's fitting what I'm coming 560 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: seeing here. And I mean it was like it was 561 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 1: like being back out in the streets listening to what's 562 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 1: going on in London. Gregs we did, uh, I did 563 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: a hit outside of big Ben in Parliament. We've been 564 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:20,120 Speaker 1: I've been going up to the rams practice there staying 565 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 1: at a strangely at like a five star luxury resort 566 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 1: which is very quaint in the English countryside, with fireplaces 567 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 1: and everything it is. It's a it's a strange place 568 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 1: to see like three hundred pound men in like sweatpants 569 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 1: ducking through doorways because they don't fit them at all. 570 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 1: But but it's a it's a lovely locale. Can we 571 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 1: throw up if anyone's watching this on YouTube? Can we 572 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: throw up that board again? I just want Greg you 573 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 1: to know how you're being described watching this show. Uh 574 00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 1: hash These are different bullet points around the NFL hero 575 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 1: former boss rules from his throne of ease, and a 576 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 1: lifelong contrarian. What do you think about that? Well, my 577 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 1: first instinct was to disagree with the lifelong, but you've 578 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:12,440 Speaker 1: painted me into a corner here. Um, yeah, you're in 579 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 1: a tough spot there. So what's you've been uh what 580 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 1: you've been covering the Rams exclusively or both sides of this? Well, 581 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 1: the giants will get here tomorrow Friday, uh as as 582 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 1: we're taping this. So I've been up at the Rams, 583 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 1: got there just in time to catch the end of 584 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,960 Speaker 1: them talking on Wednesday, and then was up up there 585 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 1: at practice in uh in lovely, I don't know where 586 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 1: it is, Twickenham Stadium stadium TWI, yeah, don't say twicken hand. 587 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 1: There's a lot of a lot of podcasts fans though 588 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 1: in the media. I have to say, other other guys 589 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 1: who have their own podcast through all vaguely disappointed it's 590 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 1: me here instead of Connor and Mark. But up, they're 591 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 1: doing doing what they can. Um. Have you managed to 592 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 1: stumble upon any secret Jeff Fisher meetings where he's going 593 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 1: over his plan to go seven and nine this year? No? 594 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 1: But um, but along those lines, you know, Steve wei 595 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 1: Shall just say reported just now on NFL Network that 596 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 1: that you know, you never know if they'll make a 597 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 1: change to Jared Goff during this bye week. So depending 598 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 1: on how case Keenum plays in this game, if he 599 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 1: doesn't play too well, uh, it sounds like they're gonna 600 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 1: Goff more practice reps regardless. And that's that they're getting 601 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 1: a little closer to itching towards putting him in a lineup. 602 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 1: And to me, that's that might be a recipe for 603 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:45,760 Speaker 1: seven nights, that might be a recipe for six and 604 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 1: ten or five and a one. But you know what, 605 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 1: I think even if it does mean I'm taking a 606 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 1: step back, that would be a positive. I've I've that's 607 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 1: been my opinion that they need to get this guy 608 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:56,800 Speaker 1: in the lineup when they think the time is right. 609 00:32:57,280 --> 00:32:59,040 Speaker 1: They shouldn't hold on with the hope that they go 610 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 1: nine and snaps having been sneak in the playoffs. I agree. 611 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 1: And the way that Giants defense is playing lately, and 612 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:07,800 Speaker 1: the way you know, I know the Rams are coming 613 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 1: off a good offensive game, but that was against the 614 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: bang up Lions team. It would not surprise me at 615 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 1: all for Kate Keenum to look a lot worse this week. 616 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:17,760 Speaker 1: And if and if that's the case, I do kind 617 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: of think we might see goff coming out of there. 618 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:23,400 Speaker 1: By Greg, we've been reluctant to give this coaching staff 619 00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 1: much credit. Do you think Rob Boris deserves some credit 620 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 1: for how relatively well case Keenum has played and Kenny 621 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: Britt having a career year, Kenny Britt playing like somebody 622 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:38,320 Speaker 1: lit a fire under his butt too. Yeah, I think 623 00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 1: that's fair that they've maximized what they have. And then 624 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 1: you know the thing everyone has given Todd Gurley a past. 625 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:48,560 Speaker 1: Dan's kind of hit this note a little bit lately, 626 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 1: like is it is it summon Todd Gurley and and 627 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 1: watching that last game against the Lions, he had some holes. 628 00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 1: I mean he had some holes. I think it's if 629 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:01,400 Speaker 1: some of the best running backs in the league got 630 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:03,600 Speaker 1: the amount of holes that he did in the first half, 631 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 1: they would have ripped off some bigger games, Like he's 632 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 1: getting the five, six, seven, but he's not. I don't 633 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 1: know what it is, but he's not making the big 634 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 1: the big plays. I did not see what I did 635 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 1: not see these holes you're referring to coaches film. Baby, 636 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 1: I'm diving deep into the Rams Greig, what's going on 637 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 1: with the defense? And m Robert Quinn. I know he's back, 638 00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 1: but they have a couple of guys that are really 639 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 1: banged up. Yeah, they're gonna be without Tremaine Johnson, Uh, 640 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 1: their cornerback. I think the feeling with the Rams is 641 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 1: that their defense isn't really that bad, but their cornerbacks 642 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 1: are terrible. Like they're putting I think they're quietly putting 643 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:47,320 Speaker 1: the blame on on that position, especially without Tremine Johnson. Meanwhile, 644 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:50,279 Speaker 1: they're playing the Giants with Genora's Jenkins was on their 645 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:53,319 Speaker 1: team last year and Fisher said that he's playing better 646 00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 1: than any cornerback in the league. So I think I 647 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:57,880 Speaker 1: think they were regret letting Genora's Jenkins go. And I 648 00:34:57,880 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 1: don't think Johnson is going to be back. He was 649 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 1: limp around in a boot today. But yes, they do 650 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,239 Speaker 1: get They do get Robert Quinnbeck, which is nothing else 651 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 1: should help Aaron Donald to who they were talking about, 652 00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 1: is now getting triple teamed sometimes on place Greg. So 653 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:14,800 Speaker 1: before we let you go here, you have to tell us, um, 654 00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:17,680 Speaker 1: what are you doing out there?

I've only been here for a 666 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,440 Speaker 1: little over twenty four hours, and half of that has 667 00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 1: been spent in in cars and cat like the practice 668 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:06,120 Speaker 1: facilities two hours away in traffic. Uh. Then there was 669 00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 1: a lot of going around. Today. I'm going to some availabilities. Tomorrow, 670 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 1: I'm writing some stuff. So it's it's a grand time. 671 00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:16,600 Speaker 1: But Saturday, I think Saturday would be today if this happens, 672 00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:20,240 Speaker 1: which it won't. If it does, I owe you an apology. 673 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 1: In fact, I'll buy you a sandwich. Well, you know 674 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:27,680 Speaker 1: how I hate losing. You know that, So I might 675 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 1: just hold it just to get that sand you know 676 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,239 Speaker 1: what I mean, Like it was, it was on the 677 00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,279 Speaker 1: border line. You also know that I'm not much of 678 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,359 Speaker 1: a planner. So no, it's not just that I think 679 00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 1: your anti social. You're not like a bar guy or 680 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 1: a guy that likes to booze a lot. I'm saying, Uh, 681 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 1: the planning of it, everything that goes along with it, 682 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:48,280 Speaker 1: I just I can't see coming together. That's just my prediction. 683 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,840 Speaker 1: That's all. This is like a challenge a little bit. 684 00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:54,839 Speaker 1: The power of the Around the NFL podcast is such 685 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 1: I think you could just send a tweet out. It's 686 00:36:57,120 --> 00:37:00,400 Speaker 1: like a bat signal and just the hands. Fans are 687 00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:03,560 Speaker 1: gonna come flocking from all over the There's a lot 688 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,319 Speaker 1: of rosy fans to Greg, so just be careful, look 689 00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 1: out for stalkers. Uh, be safe where the cobble stone? 690 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,240 Speaker 1: And Uh? Should we check in with you on Sunday? 691 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:14,279 Speaker 1: I don't know what the time situation is going to be. 692 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 1: Is that not a realistic thing? Okay, so let's talk 693 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:20,279 Speaker 1: again on Sunday. I look forward to it, all right, 694 00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 1: by Greg? Let's play him out? Where did you find 695 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:42,319 Speaker 1: this music? They send our boys overseas and we want 696 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 1: him back. We want um always back too, But we 697 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 1: send the right ones offseas and they send a lead. 698 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:50,359 Speaker 1: I like, Greg, which war was this? World War two? 699 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,319 Speaker 1: W W two? The Great War? World War one? The 700 00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:58,040 Speaker 1: song was over there over there? Remember that? I don't 701 00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:02,839 Speaker 1: remember it. We all one more note about this game, 702 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 1: because it's becoming a story around the league. Josh Brown, 703 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:09,120 Speaker 1: the Giants kicker, who of course, has suspended one game 704 00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:15,759 Speaker 1: for domestic violence. UH situation some more came to light recently, uh, 705 00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 1: as recently as today Thursday, which has now led to 706 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:23,560 Speaker 1: the Giants decision to not have Brown travel uh to London. 707 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 1: So I think um, Josh Brown's career with the Giants, 708 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 1: um at the very least could be endanger now because 709 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 1: of his domestic violence past. That more and more is 710 00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,360 Speaker 1: coming to light. Not a good situation for the Giants, 711 00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 1: and maybe when they could have handled this situation better, 712 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:42,040 Speaker 1: I'd like to see them get in front of this, 713 00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:47,640 Speaker 1: not behind it next time exactly. Let us move on 714 00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:50,759 Speaker 1: and talk about another NFC East team, the Washington Redskins 715 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 1: back here in the States. They traveled to Detroit to 716 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 1: face the Lions, and Uh, I don't know, West, I 717 00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:01,320 Speaker 1: feel like I've been on this train a little sooner 718 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:03,640 Speaker 1: than other people. That the lines are a kind of 719 00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 1: fun team. That they're not a great team, but the 720 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,919 Speaker 1: team if you watch their games, and they're gonna play 721 00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 1: some entertaining games, and we know Maddie Stafford is gonna 722 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:12,960 Speaker 1: be throwing the ball around and Couter is gonna be 723 00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:15,759 Speaker 1: doing his Couter stuff. I'm in on this line team. 724 00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,479 Speaker 1: They're fun to watch this year, they are fun to watch. 725 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:22,200 Speaker 1: Stafford played a brilliant game last week. According to Pro 726 00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 1: Football Focus. His accuracy rate, which factors in spiked balls, 727 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:31,239 Speaker 1: UH throwaways, was ninety three point one percent, which is 728 00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:33,719 Speaker 1: about as eh as you're going to see. He was 729 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:36,800 Speaker 1: on point, and their offense is a little bit different 730 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:40,960 Speaker 1: this year. They throw mostly within ten yards and get 731 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:43,960 Speaker 1: everybody going after the catch. He did have one really 732 00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:47,319 Speaker 1: nice throw on a on a free play when it 733 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,239 Speaker 1: was a defensive off side and hit Golden Tape for 734 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:51,040 Speaker 1: a big play Golden Tate. And I don't know why 735 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:53,800 Speaker 1: he hasn't been good all year because he looks spectacular. 736 00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:56,400 Speaker 1: He looked just like the guy that had ninety nine catches. 737 00:39:56,440 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 1: I don't know where he's been. He was right back 738 00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:03,680 Speaker 1: to his old ways celebrating and being golden. Uh. If 739 00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:05,719 Speaker 1: he If he's back now and your pair him with 740 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 1: Marvin Jones, their offense is even gonna be bigger and 741 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:12,520 Speaker 1: a Quan Bolden. Also, by the way, uh it's Matthew Stafford. 742 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:15,400 Speaker 1: We cannot refer to him as Matt Stafford. That was 743 00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:20,400 Speaker 1: a note that uh NFL network received. Really, yeah, I 744 00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:22,680 Speaker 1: called him Maddie. Is that allowed? No? I don't think so. 745 00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:27,359 Speaker 1: I think it's got to be Matthew. That's why can't 746 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 1: I call Matt Stafford. I think it's you know what, 747 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:33,520 Speaker 1: I think it is Matt Stafford kind of sounds like 748 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:35,960 Speaker 1: a frat boy from Alabama. Wasn't that what he is? 749 00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:40,680 Speaker 1: Oh he's from Dallas, from Dallas and Matthew more refined. 750 00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:43,239 Speaker 1: I think that's what he's going for. Sense, we have 751 00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:45,439 Speaker 1: to take this seriously, Like we can't call Adam Jones 752 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 1: pac Man, we have to call Michael Vick, Mike Vick. 753 00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:49,759 Speaker 1: I mean, can't we just not pay attention to this? 754 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:51,919 Speaker 1: We could do whatever we want. And by the way, 755 00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 1: and this is one of the stranger subplots of the 756 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:58,440 Speaker 1: whole season. Uh, just like the Bills have turned it around, 757 00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:01,680 Speaker 1: the Redskins are now four too. So before you know, 758 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 1: as much as I'm saying, I think the Lions are 759 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:05,480 Speaker 1: fun and and all this stuff, and they're not an 760 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:08,839 Speaker 1: easy beat at home, we cannot discount the Redskins call 761 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:11,400 Speaker 1: in because they're winning every single week now. Not to 762 00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:15,719 Speaker 1: mention Matt Jones. Look, he's been running well and he'll 763 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:19,279 Speaker 1: probably probably have another good game with Helodi Noda out. 764 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:22,399 Speaker 1: I would expect that. Plus, like the Lions don't really 765 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:26,759 Speaker 1: have a good pass rush, So Kirk Cousins, whatever you 766 00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:30,080 Speaker 1: think of him, he'll probably have time to throw. Yeah, 767 00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:34,360 Speaker 1: Deshaun Jackson has not practiced this week. Jordan Reed tried 768 00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:36,799 Speaker 1: to practice limited Wednesday and then was held out on 769 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:40,719 Speaker 1: Thursday again, so it could be his weapons could be 770 00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:43,359 Speaker 1: a little to diminished. Kirk Cousins, maybe he'll throw another 771 00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:46,440 Speaker 1: touchdown to Vernon Davis, who will not fake shoot a 772 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:49,360 Speaker 1: free throw this time. Becose you can't fake shoot a 773 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:52,560 Speaker 1: free throw, but you can mimic the Incredible Hulk, which 774 00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:57,920 Speaker 1: Ryan Kerrigan did three times. How arbitrary and capricious rule 775 00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:00,920 Speaker 1: to follow this week? I don't know, West. Before we 776 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:05,280 Speaker 1: move on, are you ready for this? Is You're Henley 777 00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:07,200 Speaker 1: ready for this? I don't know. I don't think my 778 00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:14,200 Speaker 1: hens ready for this. Jelly Joe Barry revenge game really 779 00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 1: pulled that one. Let's move on another one PM game, 780 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,759 Speaker 1: the Oakland Raiders, team of a t L runner up 781 00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 1: at the Jacksonville Jaguars. Um listen, nobody cares about my 782 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 1: fantasy team, but in my two quarterback league, not only 783 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 1: did I drop Marcus Mariotta and pick up Tony Romo, 784 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:40,240 Speaker 1: what else did you do my other starters? Blake Bortles. 785 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:43,880 Speaker 1: What a nightmare season? And you know why because I 786 00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,920 Speaker 1: got sucked into our own podcast and said Flake Portals 787 00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:50,720 Speaker 1: and Marcus mariottal taking me to the Promised Land. Anyway, 788 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:54,880 Speaker 1: Flake Portals has been terrible. But here we go West 789 00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 1: at home against the Raiders defense. They can't stop anybody. 790 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 1: If ever, Jack's bill is gonna get their offense going, 791 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,759 Speaker 1: how about this week? I don't see it, damn. And 792 00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: I'll tell you you know, I think the world of 793 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:11,319 Speaker 1: Greg Rosenthal's quarterback index were almost always in lockstep. In 794 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:15,000 Speaker 1: his first paragraph, he writes he includes Blake Bortles among 795 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:16,880 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks who had their best game of the season 796 00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:19,880 Speaker 1: last week, and I gotta tell you I thought he 797 00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:23,640 Speaker 1: was awful. They didn't move the ball for three quarters. 798 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,400 Speaker 1: They finally come back and score seventeen points in the 799 00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:30,080 Speaker 1: fourth quarter, with Blake Bortles relying almost wholly on defensive 800 00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:34,520 Speaker 1: penalties to move the ball. It wasn't his passing, which 801 00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:37,360 Speaker 1: he still has a major hitch in his delivery. His 802 00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:39,800 Speaker 1: kicks his back leg out like a baseball pitcher. It 803 00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:43,759 Speaker 1: takes him forever to wind up. Sydney, get the Jaguars 804 00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:47,160 Speaker 1: on the phone. I want Wesley speaking with their offensive coordinator. 805 00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:52,920 Speaker 1: Who's I I want West to fix this mechanical flaw. 806 00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:54,839 Speaker 1: Can you do it for us? Said? You know, I'm 807 00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:57,840 Speaker 1: my best Okay, Well, this is why he's getting so 808 00:43:57,880 --> 00:43:59,719 Speaker 1: many balls batted down at the line of scrimmage. Is 809 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:02,240 Speaker 1: why he's throwing Alan Hearns into double coverage and taking 810 00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:04,399 Speaker 1: big hits over the middle because it takes him three 811 00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:07,200 Speaker 1: seconds to wind up and throw the ball. But Oakland's 812 00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 1: Oakland secondary, they've sort of struggled though. Seawan Smith. He 813 00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:12,120 Speaker 1: does look so much better than he did at the 814 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:14,960 Speaker 1: beginning of the year. But yeah, they don't look good. 815 00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:17,400 Speaker 1: And I have Alan Hearn's which I'm ready to drop 816 00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:20,839 Speaker 1: because he's not doing anything. Nothing's working on Jackson's offense. Well, 817 00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:24,400 Speaker 1: here's here's a telling stat. Alan Robinson led the NFL 818 00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:27,440 Speaker 1: last year in plays of twenty or more yards. This year, 819 00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:30,520 Speaker 1: he's not in the top fifty in plays of Lake 820 00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 1: Bordo is a sinking this offense. Something's got to give here, 821 00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:35,719 Speaker 1: Jacksonville or nothing, or this is just gonna be a 822 00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:38,400 Speaker 1: terrible game because this is the number twenty nine ranked 823 00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:42,840 Speaker 1: offense and Jacksonville in the last ranked defense in Oakland. 824 00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:46,600 Speaker 1: So you know, Oakland though, at four and two, uh, 825 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:48,319 Speaker 1: if they can like I've said, and one of the 826 00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:50,200 Speaker 1: reasons I pushed them hard as the team of a 827 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,480 Speaker 1: t L is that as bad as the defense has been, 828 00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:54,799 Speaker 1: they've been able to steal some games. So once you 829 00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:56,799 Speaker 1: give yourself a little cushion, if you can figure some 830 00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 1: things out on defense and go from being thirty one 831 00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:02,520 Speaker 1: to say twenty or so, and your offense stays your offense, 832 00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 1: you're an eleven win team in my mind. But they 833 00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 1: gotta start turning the corner a little bit here. It's 834 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:09,920 Speaker 1: getting late early. Yeah, the Raiders offensive line has looked really, 835 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:13,000 Speaker 1: really good, so Derek Carr will be able to throw. 836 00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:16,640 Speaker 1: I mean, the Jags pass rage really really struggles. So 837 00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:19,640 Speaker 1: I think I don't know. I've heard about their defense. 838 00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:23,680 Speaker 1: What happened to Saxon? What happened to it? What about 839 00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:27,560 Speaker 1: that does that beach house? We're told it's in Miami 840 00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 1: on the beach, but it's not even on the beach, 841 00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:35,760 Speaker 1: And I was in Miami with one new beach from 842 00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:40,880 Speaker 1: the goddamn it. Don't you lie to me. One one great, 843 00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:45,400 Speaker 1: one bright spot for this defense, Jalen Ramsey. He takes 844 00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:47,440 Speaker 1: it as a personal insult when you complete a pass 845 00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:50,280 Speaker 1: on him, which is a sign of yeah, great quarterback, 846 00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:53,000 Speaker 1: right corner and he is a great cornerback already. All right, 847 00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:56,160 Speaker 1: so let's let's move on now. Hell, let's pick that 848 00:45:56,200 --> 00:46:00,120 Speaker 1: game Oakland Jack's I got the offense just because as 849 00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:03,799 Speaker 1: I needed to have, and Jacksonville's offense is no, I 850 00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:06,600 Speaker 1: can't do it. I think Oakland and Blackjack del Rio 851 00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:08,640 Speaker 1: will pull another one out of the rabbit out of 852 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:11,440 Speaker 1: the hat. Close win, two to three point win for 853 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:14,480 Speaker 1: the Raiders. I won't be picking the Jaguars again the 854 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:16,880 Speaker 1: rest of the year until Blake Bortles fixes that delivered 855 00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:22,680 Speaker 1: Raiders five and two. Raiders Mark it in? Are you 856 00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:26,120 Speaker 1: locking it? No, it's not my lock. It's not my lock. Oh, 857 00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:29,360 Speaker 1: Mark wasn't here today. I should say he's locking in. Uh, 858 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:32,319 Speaker 1: Bengals lose to Browns. He's been talking about it all week, 859 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:35,160 Speaker 1: the brown He's picking the Browns again. He has said 860 00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:37,320 Speaker 1: that the Bengals are gonna lose this game. He's locking 861 00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:40,400 Speaker 1: that up. He didn't give me permission to say that, 862 00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:43,040 Speaker 1: but I'm saying anyway, Mark, Mark thinks it's a lock. Alright. 863 00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:49,440 Speaker 1: I respect it because you know what, and I forgot 864 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:51,960 Speaker 1: mine now, bad job. But I forgot your lock, I 865 00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:55,040 Speaker 1: forgot my lock. I'm locking up. I know I am locked. 866 00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:57,520 Speaker 1: I got caught up with Greg in London. I'm locking 867 00:46:57,640 --> 00:47:01,440 Speaker 1: up the Giants. Uh MPs in London. Lock that up? 868 00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:06,760 Speaker 1: Miss placed locks of the week. I've gotten four straight 869 00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:10,200 Speaker 1: locks of the week wrong. But it's all changing. Uh, 870 00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:13,719 Speaker 1: starting quite a great segment. Four straight locks of the 871 00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:19,360 Speaker 1: week wrong, that's part of the sauce. Yeah, exactly. Let's 872 00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:21,800 Speaker 1: move on talk about it. A f C East matchup 873 00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:26,000 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills, who have won four straight games. Um 874 00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:28,680 Speaker 1: ever since they got beat on Thursday night by the Jets. 875 00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:31,680 Speaker 1: They have turned their season around, unbeatable since and look 876 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:35,280 Speaker 1: damn good. And now they travel to Miami, damn good. 877 00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:39,000 Speaker 1: And I'm believing damny neither West. Save it for the 878 00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:44,480 Speaker 1: expletive podcast. Um oh you're saying damn ing damn that's 879 00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:48,840 Speaker 1: theology as well. Okay, I got you anyway, Colleen. Dolphins 880 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:51,799 Speaker 1: they beat the Steelers last week and credit a nice job. 881 00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:55,319 Speaker 1: Nobody thought you were gonna do that. Uh. Can they 882 00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:57,560 Speaker 1: go on? And this is the reason why. And everybody 883 00:47:57,560 --> 00:47:59,400 Speaker 1: thought I was crazy on Tuesday show. I was not 884 00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:02,160 Speaker 1: going to fork the Dolphins yet I think they have 885 00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:03,960 Speaker 1: a little run in them to make people think, oh, 886 00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:06,120 Speaker 1: maybe they're not so bad. And I kind of think 887 00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:09,319 Speaker 1: that run continues right now against the Bill. What do 888 00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:12,120 Speaker 1: you think about this game? Okay, well, I think that 889 00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:16,879 Speaker 1: you're onto something there because sure, the Dolphins um won 890 00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:19,359 Speaker 1: the game in part because Ben Roethlisberger was hurt, But 891 00:48:19,520 --> 00:48:21,920 Speaker 1: this was the first game all year that the Dolphins 892 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:25,560 Speaker 1: had their their entire offensive line intact. So you had 893 00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:28,640 Speaker 1: Laramie Tunsil, Brandon Albert, and Mike Pouncey all there. They 894 00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:30,919 Speaker 1: all had missed time at some point during the year, 895 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:34,080 Speaker 1: so that's a huge reason why j j. I was 896 00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:36,600 Speaker 1: able to run. He ran for over two hundred yards. 897 00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:39,720 Speaker 1: Everybody knows that by now, But in this matchup, Marcel 898 00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:41,840 Speaker 1: Darius I was not aware than it's not going to 899 00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:45,680 Speaker 1: play and I mean, I would think that J J I. 900 00:48:45,719 --> 00:48:47,160 Speaker 1: E Is going to be able to take advantage of 901 00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:51,799 Speaker 1: that matchup. Also, um, I mean, I just I feel 902 00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:54,279 Speaker 1: like on the other side of things that you have 903 00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:57,560 Speaker 1: Anthony Lynn. Anthony Lynn, I feel like is this year's 904 00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:01,080 Speaker 1: Jim Bob Cooterer Because everybody is sort of like, oh, 905 00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:04,319 Speaker 1: once Anthony Lynn came in here, everything turned around. And 906 00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:09,120 Speaker 1: so it's like they want I even did like the 907 00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:11,920 Speaker 1: hands in it, but it's so true. They've been running 908 00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:15,480 Speaker 1: the ball well, and Lashawn McCoy looks like a completely 909 00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:18,680 Speaker 1: different player in this system with whatever they're doing well 910 00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:21,400 Speaker 1: they're running the ball, that's a different thing. Three touchdowns 911 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:24,360 Speaker 1: in that game last week. Here's the problem. Leshan McCoy 912 00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:27,919 Speaker 1: on Wednesday suffered a hamstring injury practice and the way 913 00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:32,120 Speaker 1: it was explained, not a serious hamstring injury, but also 914 00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:35,840 Speaker 1: not a precautionary removing from practice one like more in 915 00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:38,680 Speaker 1: the moderate range. He's right now expected as a game 916 00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:42,200 Speaker 1: time call, and that's terrible news for Buffalo because this 917 00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:45,200 Speaker 1: guy had hit a groove now and he is the 918 00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:47,759 Speaker 1: centerpiece west of this offense. There's no doubt, right. I 919 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:51,120 Speaker 1: think what point you have to ask at what point 920 00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:53,440 Speaker 1: do the injury start to mount for the Bills, because 921 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:57,560 Speaker 1: it sounds like it's trending towards McCoy not playing. Robert 922 00:49:57,600 --> 00:50:01,520 Speaker 1: Woods hasn't practice, Sammy Watkins is out. Those are their 923 00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:05,799 Speaker 1: three best weapons on offense. I don't know it's gonna be. 924 00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:07,560 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a tougher game than people think. They've 925 00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:11,239 Speaker 1: outscored opponents fifty three over the last four games, which 926 00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:14,799 Speaker 1: is flat out domination. But they're gonna be severely undermanned 927 00:50:14,960 --> 00:50:17,319 Speaker 1: in Miami. Yeah, Tyrod Taylor is going to be under 928 00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:19,239 Speaker 1: a ton of pressure too, so he's gonna have to 929 00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:21,319 Speaker 1: get a lot of yards scrambling. You know what else? 930 00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:25,880 Speaker 1: This is? Oh no, what revenge game? Wounded duck game? 931 00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:31,600 Speaker 1: Not a wounded duck game. It isn't the guy who 932 00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:33,120 Speaker 1: used to be the head coach and I can't remember 933 00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:39,040 Speaker 1: his name, No colle, no Doug Marone. He's the coach 934 00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:44,920 Speaker 1: of Jacksonville. Just pipe down, Colleen, Just relaxes. This is 935 00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:49,600 Speaker 1: the guys, the Mario Williams revenge game. He's got revenge agendas. 936 00:50:49,680 --> 00:50:52,040 Speaker 1: This is one of them. Can he get revenge from 937 00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:54,359 Speaker 1: the bench. I don't know. I thought he'd be cut 938 00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:56,719 Speaker 1: this week, but he's still there. I thought you thought 939 00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:58,359 Speaker 1: you made that your locking the way I locked that up. 940 00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:00,839 Speaker 1: I don't lock it up. No, I didn't lick it up. 941 00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:06,880 Speaker 1: All right, let's move on. Uh. The Baltimore Ravens. Everything 942 00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:09,640 Speaker 1: was great. They were three and three and out. What 943 00:51:09,840 --> 00:51:13,640 Speaker 1: goes up must come down? Three and three now now 944 00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:17,080 Speaker 1: three game losing streak. They lost at the meadow Lands 945 00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:19,799 Speaker 1: last Sunday to the Giants, and they stay at the 946 00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:23,120 Speaker 1: meadow Lands this week to face the Jets at one 947 00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:25,879 Speaker 1: in five. It's all over for the Jets. And Ryan 948 00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:28,719 Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick something that we were not aware of last time 949 00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:32,400 Speaker 1: we were with you. He was in fact bench fits 950 00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:36,640 Speaker 1: Magic fits Magic is no more. Uh. They're putting Gino 951 00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:39,880 Speaker 1: Smith in the lineup, and Colleen, is that going to 952 00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:43,120 Speaker 1: change anything? Uh? For the Jets on offense in your 953 00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:50,160 Speaker 1: it's not. I'm sorry, I couldn't make the worse. I mean, 954 00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:55,439 Speaker 1: well they yes, yeah, I think so, I mean the turnovers. Well, 955 00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:59,520 Speaker 1: the problem is the Ravens are also super injured, so 956 00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:02,360 Speaker 1: they so many guys that are banged up. So it 957 00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:05,040 Speaker 1: won't be the same team that Gino Smith is facing. 958 00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:09,960 Speaker 1: Um Terrell Suggs is out, Elvis Dumerville won't play. C J. 959 00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:13,760 Speaker 1: Moseley is banged up, Jimmy se Steve Smith. Yeah, Marshall 960 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:15,920 Speaker 1: Yonda won't play. But like, the team is so different. 961 00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:18,959 Speaker 1: But in terms of the Jets, I guess it could 962 00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:22,720 Speaker 1: get worse with Gino. According to our Reacharch department, thirty 963 00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:28,000 Speaker 1: quarterbacks have thrown eight hundred passes since uh, two thirteen. 964 00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:31,319 Speaker 1: I believe in Gino Smith ranks last in every major category. Yeah. 965 00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:33,160 Speaker 1: I mean that's the thing that has always surprised me 966 00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:37,080 Speaker 1: about our colleague Greg Rosenthal, who has always thought that 967 00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:38,799 Speaker 1: Gino was the guy ready to turn the corner. And 968 00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:41,759 Speaker 1: I think, what happens, and some people do. And by 969 00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:45,200 Speaker 1: the way, Jets Twitter come back to me. Everyone every 970 00:52:45,239 --> 00:52:48,520 Speaker 1: six months or so, Jets Twitter comes after me because 971 00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:50,759 Speaker 1: that's the our fan base. We're just so sad and 972 00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:54,360 Speaker 1: miserable that sometimes we just consume, consume our own brute 973 00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:57,439 Speaker 1: out of anger and sadness. And it was my time 974 00:52:57,600 --> 00:53:00,680 Speaker 1: yesterday because I had I had the onion the state 975 00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:03,839 Speaker 1: uh that I wasn't huge on the idea of giving 976 00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:07,279 Speaker 1: Geno the Smith, uh, the starting job during a time 977 00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:09,960 Speaker 1: where he's been, you know, running his mouth to reporters 978 00:53:10,040 --> 00:53:12,880 Speaker 1: and and showing up Ryan Fitzpatrick on the sideline by 979 00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:15,359 Speaker 1: acting like a goober. I didn't love the decision to 980 00:53:15,360 --> 00:53:18,960 Speaker 1: give Gino this job, and I got killed for it. Whatever. 981 00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:21,640 Speaker 1: But here's the thing who has a strong opinion like that. 982 00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:26,440 Speaker 1: It's that's my other point. Jets fans don't come after 983 00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:32,600 Speaker 1: me ever. But number ten two, number two let's spin forward. 984 00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:34,759 Speaker 1: As a fan base, we thought we had to win. 985 00:53:34,960 --> 00:53:37,959 Speaker 1: Now team we don't win, So now we gotta figure 986 00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:40,080 Speaker 1: out what's next. And that does not mean Ryan Fitzpatrick 987 00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:42,680 Speaker 1: and it doesn't mean Geno Smith. How long before we 988 00:53:42,719 --> 00:53:44,960 Speaker 1: can get Bryce Petty into a game and get a 989 00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:47,719 Speaker 1: look at this kid? That's my The only thing I'm 990 00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:49,799 Speaker 1: taking from the season now is when can I see 991 00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:54,719 Speaker 1: Bryce Petty or maybe Hackenburg? That's what are you saying? 992 00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:57,440 Speaker 1: Jets fans like you guys should all come together and 993 00:53:57,520 --> 00:54:00,120 Speaker 1: together you will be better and that will never happening 994 00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:02,640 Speaker 1: each other apart. I would love that to happen. West. 995 00:54:02,680 --> 00:54:04,520 Speaker 1: You say it's pathetic, but that's what a team has 996 00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:06,880 Speaker 1: to do. I'd say it's pathetic because there's no reason 997 00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:08,920 Speaker 1: to think that Bryce Petty is some kind of answer. 998 00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:11,680 Speaker 1: But we don't know. Nobody thought that Dak Prescott was 999 00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:14,280 Speaker 1: the answer this year before he started. Not a comparison 1000 00:54:14,320 --> 00:54:16,920 Speaker 1: you can even make, because Bryce Petty has embarrassed himself 1001 00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:19,680 Speaker 1: in the preseason and Dak Prescott has played really well. 1002 00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:22,200 Speaker 1: You're thinking of Christian Hackenberg now I'm I'm thinking of 1003 00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:24,719 Speaker 1: Bryce Petty. Bryce Petty looked good in the preseason. What 1004 00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:27,279 Speaker 1: about the year before he well that was that was 1005 00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:30,800 Speaker 1: his Hackenburg red shirt year coming out of that Bailor system. 1006 00:54:31,120 --> 00:54:33,799 Speaker 1: He made some really nice plays in the preseason. I'm 1007 00:54:33,800 --> 00:54:35,719 Speaker 1: not saying Bryce Petty is the answer, but it's a 1008 00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:38,200 Speaker 1: waste of time right now. With Gino Smith, who's not 1009 00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:41,040 Speaker 1: gonna be on this team next year, that's all the 1010 00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:45,520 Speaker 1: Jets fans have right now. Did you hear his voicemail? Yeah, 1011 00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:48,560 Speaker 1: that's why I'm checking on him. He's not doing great. 1012 00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:50,319 Speaker 1: This is potential to be the worst game of the week. 1013 00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:54,240 Speaker 1: It's a It's two teams that are middle hasn't practiced 1014 00:54:54,320 --> 00:54:56,440 Speaker 1: yet this week, and their passing game was broken for 1015 00:54:56,480 --> 00:54:58,200 Speaker 1: a large stretch of the game against the Giants. They 1016 00:54:58,200 --> 00:54:59,959 Speaker 1: couldn't move the ball. Why don't we move on then 1017 00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:02,120 Speaker 1: talk about, well, this game is not much better, but 1018 00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:05,920 Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay bucking two and three. We don't even 1019 00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:07,799 Speaker 1: have Greg here to pump up the buck, so this 1020 00:55:07,880 --> 00:55:11,480 Speaker 1: is not much And Kaepernick, Yeah, they're traveling to San Francisco, 1021 00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:16,000 Speaker 1: UH to face Colin Kaepernick and the forty Niners, who 1022 00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:19,359 Speaker 1: have lost five straight after their annual will Look, they're 1023 00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:21,959 Speaker 1: not that bad. Week one performance in front of Chris 1024 00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:25,360 Speaker 1: Berman in the world. Um, that's a big ballabat on. 1025 00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:29,560 Speaker 1: But now Wes, the Niners are running Colin Kaepernick back 1026 00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:32,200 Speaker 1: out there, and I know it's kind of a um 1027 00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:35,480 Speaker 1: happy story for a lot of people because Kaepernick is 1028 00:55:36,520 --> 00:55:39,040 Speaker 1: his politics and the decision he's made. And you could 1029 00:55:39,280 --> 00:55:42,640 Speaker 1: definitely get behind him for how he's comported himself the 1030 00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:45,799 Speaker 1: last few months. But as a player, did you see 1031 00:55:45,800 --> 00:55:50,000 Speaker 1: anything as a player to to get excited about in 1032 00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:54,200 Speaker 1: his first start of the year. Uh, maybe his scrambling ability. 1033 00:55:54,880 --> 00:55:56,640 Speaker 1: This is another one I'm gonna have to disagree with 1034 00:55:56,680 --> 00:55:58,840 Speaker 1: Greg on. He tried to paint this picture that Kaepernick 1035 00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:03,080 Speaker 1: was some upgrade on Gabbett or not entirely bad, and 1036 00:56:03,160 --> 00:56:06,040 Speaker 1: every there's a there was a basically a hit piece 1037 00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:08,840 Speaker 1: on Kaepernick came out from Bleacher to Bleacher Report with 1038 00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:11,880 Speaker 1: undisclosed Bills players saying he's done. He'll never be a 1039 00:56:11,880 --> 00:56:14,399 Speaker 1: good quarterback again. That was the reaction from the team 1040 00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:16,640 Speaker 1: that beat him. I saw a quarterback who miss more 1041 00:56:16,719 --> 00:56:18,960 Speaker 1: throws than any quarterback in the league last week. Even 1042 00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:21,320 Speaker 1: his touchdown throw is pretty large. He missed so many 1043 00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:25,239 Speaker 1: throws and I like the stance he's taken. I think 1044 00:56:25,239 --> 00:56:28,239 Speaker 1: it's something American needs to discuss. But on the field, no, 1045 00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:31,279 Speaker 1: I don't think he's the answer for them. Yeah. I 1046 00:56:31,320 --> 00:56:33,759 Speaker 1: mean when you watch this team, it's really hard to 1047 00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:38,799 Speaker 1: pick out bright spots with in general. Um, I think 1048 00:56:38,800 --> 00:56:43,200 Speaker 1: the Bucks too. They just placed Vincent Jackson on injured reserve. 1049 00:56:43,320 --> 00:56:45,799 Speaker 1: Not like he was a huge thing or anything, but 1050 00:56:45,920 --> 00:56:49,200 Speaker 1: it's just like it's tough to really pull anything out 1051 00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:52,839 Speaker 1: of this game. That's that's great Cameron Braid, maybe Adam humphreyes, 1052 00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:57,480 Speaker 1: Mike Evans, but yeah, um yeah, I don't think this 1053 00:56:57,680 --> 00:56:59,640 Speaker 1: needs too much more discussion this game. But I will 1054 00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:01,840 Speaker 1: tell you was because I know you love when I 1055 00:57:01,840 --> 00:57:07,239 Speaker 1: start digging through the week seven research notes. This game 1056 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:14,200 Speaker 1: needs it. Isn't this Greg's music? Okay? The Buccaneers have 1057 00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:17,360 Speaker 1: never won on a Week seven road game. Oh in fifteen, 1058 00:57:18,200 --> 00:57:23,840 Speaker 1: lock it up. It is what it is, doesn't anything. 1059 00:57:24,080 --> 00:57:26,520 Speaker 1: I'm saying it's in the research packet. I believe it's 1060 00:57:26,520 --> 00:57:28,640 Speaker 1: in there. It just doesn't mean anything. I'm just say, 1061 00:57:28,680 --> 00:57:33,000 Speaker 1: what if it was a Week eight road game? I 1062 00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:36,240 Speaker 1: guess you want my guests. They've been moderately more successful 1063 00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:39,680 Speaker 1: historically in Week eight exceven. That's a definition of a 1064 00:57:39,720 --> 00:57:43,320 Speaker 1: meaningless stat Hey, take it up with the media research department. 1065 00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:45,200 Speaker 1: Bro Doug Martin will be back in this game. I 1066 00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:47,200 Speaker 1: don't want to talk about this game anywhere. Okay, fine, Fine, 1067 00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:50,400 Speaker 1: it was like Navarro Bowman, he's out. Fine, let's move on. Okay, 1068 00:57:50,560 --> 00:57:56,600 Speaker 1: let's go San Diego Superchargers. Oh, by the way, you know, 1069 00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:58,280 Speaker 1: I try. I was thinking about maybe we should work 1070 00:57:58,320 --> 00:58:00,320 Speaker 1: these guys, and everybody in this room is like, no, 1071 00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:03,560 Speaker 1: the Chargers. They're going to the Super bull Man. So 1072 00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:06,800 Speaker 1: we didn't even come close to forking the Charges, should we? 1073 00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:10,320 Speaker 1: Because yeah, because they're so good at losing like close games. 1074 00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:13,840 Speaker 1: Now they go to Atlanta to face the Falcons team 1075 00:58:13,880 --> 00:58:17,560 Speaker 1: that now four and two. Uh so they had their 1076 00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:20,800 Speaker 1: four game winning streak snapped, and in my opinion, in 1077 00:58:20,800 --> 00:58:23,919 Speaker 1: a bogus manner in Seattle, I think they I think, yes, West, 1078 00:58:23,960 --> 00:58:26,320 Speaker 1: You're right, they We don't know if they would have 1079 00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:29,080 Speaker 1: Atlanta would have finished off that drive in the last 1080 00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:31,680 Speaker 1: minute of that game. I like to think they would have. 1081 00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:33,640 Speaker 1: I think they would have moved in and hit that kick, 1082 00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:35,480 Speaker 1: and they should be five and one right now. So 1083 00:58:35,720 --> 00:58:38,280 Speaker 1: I'm not even a Falcons fan, and I'm still mad 1084 00:58:38,280 --> 00:58:40,160 Speaker 1: about how that game played out. So my point being, 1085 00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:42,800 Speaker 1: Falcons are still looking good in my mind, even despite 1086 00:58:42,840 --> 00:58:46,360 Speaker 1: coming off a loss, and I fully expect Colleen the 1087 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:51,840 Speaker 1: Falcons to lay the wood on the charge. Yeah you 1088 00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:55,040 Speaker 1: disagree with me, I disagree, Okay, Okay, let's hear I 1089 00:58:55,120 --> 00:59:01,600 Speaker 1: disagree so much. What my lock of the week? I'm 1090 00:59:02,120 --> 00:59:07,320 Speaker 1: up Chargers. It is locked. It's locked in, it's loaded. 1091 00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:09,120 Speaker 1: Because what we do is we put things in the 1092 00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:11,680 Speaker 1: vault and we said we're gonna lock them up, and 1093 00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:13,680 Speaker 1: then we go out and get sandwiches or have a 1094 00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:15,360 Speaker 1: couple of bruise and we never lock it up. And 1095 00:59:15,400 --> 00:59:17,160 Speaker 1: that's why we keep losing these games. It will be 1096 00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:23,439 Speaker 1: locked up. I'm explain yourself. You gotta explain it. Just locks. 1097 00:59:25,600 --> 00:59:28,440 Speaker 1: I know, I'm you know, I'm getting crazy here. Uh. 1098 00:59:28,480 --> 00:59:30,640 Speaker 1: Nobody is a bigger fan of the Falcons than me 1099 00:59:30,800 --> 00:59:35,880 Speaker 1: right now watching that offense. This the team you're picking against. 1100 00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:42,480 Speaker 1: Nobody's Yes, that's why it's a conflicting. But I just 1101 00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:45,320 Speaker 1: feel like everybody is so high right now on the 1102 00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:48,280 Speaker 1: Falcons that this game and everybody wants to say, oh 1103 00:59:48,360 --> 00:59:50,600 Speaker 1: San Diego, like they've only lost a couple of games. 1104 00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:56,600 Speaker 1: They lost you know that they kept losing. Finally they 1105 00:59:56,600 --> 01:00:01,280 Speaker 1: went Finally they won. Right now starts everything. I got 1106 01:00:01,360 --> 01:00:04,440 Speaker 1: Joey Bosa in there, who really helps improve the defense. 1107 01:00:04,480 --> 01:00:07,600 Speaker 1: The offensive line is getting healthier and healthier. The Falcons 1108 01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:10,600 Speaker 1: really don't have a pass rush. Vic Beasley. He was 1109 01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:13,440 Speaker 1: great against the Broncos, but I mean, I feel like 1110 01:00:13,480 --> 01:00:16,160 Speaker 1: that didn't even really count in that game. The Falcons look, 1111 01:00:16,240 --> 01:00:19,520 Speaker 1: their linebackers have a really hard time covering tight ends. 1112 01:00:19,640 --> 01:00:23,600 Speaker 1: Hunter Henry he came in here. He's really impressive. This 1113 01:00:24,200 --> 01:00:27,600 Speaker 1: rookie season for him has been awesome. So you have 1114 01:00:27,840 --> 01:00:30,600 Speaker 1: I mean, Greg Olsen struggled against them or did well 1115 01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:33,400 Speaker 1: against them. Jimmy Graham did well against them. Plus Melvin 1116 01:00:33,440 --> 01:00:35,000 Speaker 1: Gordon is going to have a really good chance of 1117 01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:36,880 Speaker 1: getting going here. Yeah, maybe even like three and a 1118 01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:39,760 Speaker 1: half yards to carry. Listen, I'm just saying this is 1119 01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:43,160 Speaker 1: what's gonna happen. Locking in That wasn't bad. That was 1120 01:00:43,200 --> 01:00:45,840 Speaker 1: a pretty good explanation. I really do think. Okay, I felt, 1121 01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:49,000 Speaker 1: and I disagree, but Okay, the Falcon spent two weeks 1122 01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:52,000 Speaker 1: on the West Coast. They're tired, all right, battling two 1123 01:00:52,080 --> 01:00:55,560 Speaker 1: very alright, alright, alright, alright, this has shoot up potential. 1124 01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:57,680 Speaker 1: I follow somewhere between both of you, guys. Dan's not 1125 01:00:57,680 --> 01:01:00,200 Speaker 1: giving the Charges enough respect for being an offense can 1126 01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:02,680 Speaker 1: move the ball on anyone. Okay, they moved the ball 1127 01:01:02,720 --> 01:01:06,720 Speaker 1: every week, But you're mentioning a lot of these matchups. 1128 01:01:07,640 --> 01:01:10,120 Speaker 1: Jason Vrett's out for the year. He's gonna cover Julio Jones, 1129 01:01:10,120 --> 01:01:16,440 Speaker 1: who's gonna cover Mohammed Sanu, Who's gonna cover Taylor Gabriel. 1130 01:01:14,800 --> 01:01:19,000 Speaker 1: Not to mention the guys coming out of the backfield, 1131 01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:21,840 Speaker 1: Devonte Freeman and Tevin Coleman, who were the best complementary 1132 01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:23,600 Speaker 1: backfield in the league. I just think the Falcons have 1133 01:01:23,640 --> 01:01:26,400 Speaker 1: way too many weapons for the Chargers, even though Joey 1134 01:01:26,400 --> 01:01:29,320 Speaker 1: Bosa to me, I know Dan has been huge on him. 1135 01:01:29,400 --> 01:01:32,360 Speaker 1: He's a difference making kind of talent. I just think 1136 01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:35,320 Speaker 1: the Falcons have too many weapons. PSA and Ingraham will 1137 01:01:35,320 --> 01:01:37,120 Speaker 1: be able to get a lot of pressure on Matt 1138 01:01:37,200 --> 01:01:41,040 Speaker 1: Ryan if offensive line is really good. Is this to me? 1139 01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:44,680 Speaker 1: Has playing at home a hundred and seventy five yards 1140 01:01:44,680 --> 01:01:47,040 Speaker 1: and two touch ons for Julio Jones written all over it. 1141 01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:50,520 Speaker 1: One of those game plan wrecking type performances that sends 1142 01:01:50,520 --> 01:01:55,040 Speaker 1: a team scattered. The Charger secondary is little dicey. Yeah. 1143 01:01:55,080 --> 01:01:56,800 Speaker 1: I think these are the two highest scoring teams in 1144 01:01:56,800 --> 01:01:59,040 Speaker 1: the league. Yeah, it will be Uh, it'll be a 1145 01:01:59,080 --> 01:02:02,760 Speaker 1: fun game to watch if you like shootouts. Let's move on. 1146 01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:06,640 Speaker 1: Who's your picking the game? Was Falcons? You're taking the Falcs? 1147 01:02:06,800 --> 01:02:09,680 Speaker 1: Like it moving because I'm the biggest fan not calling. 1148 01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:15,800 Speaker 1: Nobody likes the Falkins more than me. Uh. Let's move 1149 01:02:15,880 --> 01:02:19,120 Speaker 1: on to the throne of ease, and I'll tell you 1150 01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:22,800 Speaker 1: what you wanna talk about. Throne of ease. Just so 1151 01:02:22,880 --> 01:02:25,000 Speaker 1: happens that Big Ben goes out of the lineup right 1152 01:02:25,040 --> 01:02:28,360 Speaker 1: before the big showdown against the Pats, So there will 1153 01:02:28,400 --> 01:02:32,800 Speaker 1: be no Ben Roethlisberger at Hines Field on Sunday, and 1154 01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:36,120 Speaker 1: maybe not for several more weeks beyond that. The initial 1155 01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:38,720 Speaker 1: report which he can miss his few as uh just 1156 01:02:38,840 --> 01:02:41,240 Speaker 1: one game, but now it's looking like a more standard 1157 01:02:41,480 --> 01:02:44,000 Speaker 1: type timetable for anybody that gets their knee cut open. 1158 01:02:44,840 --> 01:02:48,960 Speaker 1: But here we are now, Landry Jones first, Bill Belichick's 1159 01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:51,640 Speaker 1: defense and West I don't like the sound of that. 1160 01:02:51,960 --> 01:02:54,760 Speaker 1: Are you ready for a hot take on it? Needed? 1161 01:02:56,200 --> 01:02:58,720 Speaker 1: The Steelers should be thankful that Big Ben's not playing 1162 01:02:58,720 --> 01:03:00,360 Speaker 1: in this game. If he only misses is a game 1163 01:03:00,440 --> 01:03:03,800 Speaker 1: or two, they can look back and have plausible deniability 1164 01:03:03,880 --> 01:03:05,880 Speaker 1: about the fact that the Patriots were gonna whip them 1165 01:03:05,920 --> 01:03:09,200 Speaker 1: up and down the field. What because they can't get 1166 01:03:09,240 --> 01:03:11,800 Speaker 1: after the quarterback, they have no pass rush. Tom Brady 1167 01:03:11,880 --> 01:03:14,040 Speaker 1: is gonna sit back there and pick this defense apart. 1168 01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:16,360 Speaker 1: And I think that the Patriots would have won by 1169 01:03:16,360 --> 01:03:18,400 Speaker 1: two touchdowns no matter if Big Ben was playing. Wait 1170 01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:20,880 Speaker 1: a second, let's see that's a hot take. That's spicy. 1171 01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:22,280 Speaker 1: I just said it was hot to see you and 1172 01:03:22,360 --> 01:03:25,680 Speaker 1: Skips Skip Bayliss sitting up on the dais together. Because 1173 01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:29,880 Speaker 1: what makes you think anybody's stopping Tom Brady. I am 1174 01:03:29,920 --> 01:03:32,520 Speaker 1: not defending that. I think you are probably absolutely right 1175 01:03:32,560 --> 01:03:35,360 Speaker 1: that the Patriots can drop a forty burger here potentially, 1176 01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:38,680 Speaker 1: But when the Steelers are right, nobody can stop them either. 1177 01:03:38,760 --> 01:03:40,440 Speaker 1: So I'm just saying we were kind of robbed of 1178 01:03:40,440 --> 01:03:44,480 Speaker 1: the potential really fun offense versus offense battle. I think 1179 01:03:44,480 --> 01:03:48,480 Speaker 1: you're underselling the Patriots defense among the top five I 1180 01:03:48,520 --> 01:03:51,479 Speaker 1: believe in scoring defense in the NFL. Are number two. 1181 01:03:51,920 --> 01:03:54,160 Speaker 1: There you go, So I think, yeah, you're you're really 1182 01:03:54,280 --> 01:03:58,000 Speaker 1: underselling what they've done this year. I just think the 1183 01:03:58,040 --> 01:04:00,200 Speaker 1: Patriots are the better team by quite a it in 1184 01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:02,720 Speaker 1: this matchup, and I don't think the Steelers have the 1185 01:04:02,800 --> 01:04:05,920 Speaker 1: defense to contain to even hope to contain Tom Brady 1186 01:04:05,960 --> 01:04:08,720 Speaker 1: and Grin and Martella's Ben and Needlman and James White. 1187 01:04:08,840 --> 01:04:10,840 Speaker 1: I will say this was and you know I hate 1188 01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:12,960 Speaker 1: to say so. Once they meeted to get in the playoffs, 1189 01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:15,240 Speaker 1: the Steelers can say, hey, we didn't have Big Ben 1190 01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:17,840 Speaker 1: that game. We can feel good. It's a pretty saucy 1191 01:04:17,880 --> 01:04:20,640 Speaker 1: take I like to take. I like to take because 1192 01:04:21,200 --> 01:04:23,000 Speaker 1: you can get the stamp of approval. As much as 1193 01:04:23,040 --> 01:04:25,080 Speaker 1: I as much as I hate to admit it, it 1194 01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:28,400 Speaker 1: does feel like it's a chess checker situation with the 1195 01:04:28,440 --> 01:04:31,480 Speaker 1: Patriots and the rest of the a f c UH 1196 01:04:31,640 --> 01:04:33,720 Speaker 1: is as good as the Steelers can be when everything 1197 01:04:33,840 --> 01:04:37,640 Speaker 1: is clicking. The Pats are just a well rounded team. 1198 01:04:37,760 --> 01:04:40,760 Speaker 1: Until you know Tom, the gradual decline starts, which could 1199 01:04:40,760 --> 01:04:44,640 Speaker 1: be any week now, just watch out stand stand by 1200 01:04:44,680 --> 01:04:47,400 Speaker 1: my preseason statement that they won't lose a game with 1201 01:04:47,440 --> 01:04:49,520 Speaker 1: Tom Brady in the lineup this year, through the playoffs 1202 01:04:49,560 --> 01:04:51,720 Speaker 1: as well, all the way, they will not lose a game. 1203 01:04:52,040 --> 01:04:55,160 Speaker 1: Where do you come down on this one. Uh, Connie, Well, 1204 01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:57,520 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, without big Ben, that offense is gonna 1205 01:04:57,560 --> 01:05:01,000 Speaker 1: have trouble. The onus is on Levy on Bell to 1206 01:05:01,160 --> 01:05:03,880 Speaker 1: really run the ball or just be more involved. He wasn't. 1207 01:05:04,080 --> 01:05:07,080 Speaker 1: He didn't run the ball um as many times as 1208 01:05:07,120 --> 01:05:11,000 Speaker 1: I thought he would last week when um when Big 1209 01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:15,200 Speaker 1: Ben went down. I think I think with big Ben 1210 01:05:15,360 --> 01:05:18,400 Speaker 1: under center, they like to use him more as a receiver. 1211 01:05:18,440 --> 01:05:20,120 Speaker 1: Now they're going to have to use him as a runner. 1212 01:05:20,240 --> 01:05:21,920 Speaker 1: They yeah, they have to. I think they only ran 1213 01:05:22,000 --> 01:05:23,960 Speaker 1: him like ten times last week. I had to look 1214 01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:26,120 Speaker 1: it up. But it's a totally different offense with Landry 1215 01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:28,240 Speaker 1: Jones and it. Yeah, and we saw what it is 1216 01:05:28,440 --> 01:05:32,480 Speaker 1: last year and we're very experienced watching this team with 1217 01:05:32,560 --> 01:05:37,280 Speaker 1: Larry Jones. Landry Jones and they should get Larry Joes. 1218 01:05:38,160 --> 01:05:40,280 Speaker 1: Somebody get Larry on. There was a power for it 1219 01:05:40,280 --> 01:05:42,400 Speaker 1: in the NBA in the seventies and eighties named Larry Jones. 1220 01:05:42,440 --> 01:05:47,240 Speaker 1: I think his nickname was Mr Mean. One last now 1221 01:05:47,280 --> 01:05:50,520 Speaker 1: that was Larry Smith. Alright, disregard everything I said. Okay, 1222 01:05:51,280 --> 01:05:56,000 Speaker 1: one last thing before we move on West. It's a 1223 01:05:56,080 --> 01:06:02,320 Speaker 1: La Garry Blunt revenge game. It is, so he's gonna 1224 01:06:02,360 --> 01:06:04,240 Speaker 1: get revenge for the Steelers letting him go, and then 1225 01:06:04,240 --> 01:06:07,840 Speaker 1: he went and picked up a ring in New England. Yeah, 1226 01:06:07,880 --> 01:06:11,920 Speaker 1: something like that. All right, let's move on Sunday night football. 1227 01:06:12,720 --> 01:06:15,360 Speaker 1: You know, we've had some bad games on in primetime 1228 01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:18,960 Speaker 1: this year, but you can uh sleep well heading towards 1229 01:06:19,360 --> 01:06:23,440 Speaker 1: Sunday knowing that we have a nice NFC West battle there. Well, 1230 01:06:23,560 --> 01:06:25,560 Speaker 1: we'll get to it, all right. We set it up 1231 01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:28,360 Speaker 1: for us before you chop it down. The Seattle Seahawks 1232 01:06:28,360 --> 01:06:31,440 Speaker 1: four and one, Uh, coming off, Yes, that controversial win 1233 01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:33,800 Speaker 1: over the Falcons, and they're building now. They travel to 1234 01:06:33,920 --> 01:06:38,960 Speaker 1: Glendale University of Phoenix Stadium to face the Arizona Cardinals 1235 01:06:39,080 --> 01:06:43,080 Speaker 1: and uh West, we talked about this earlier today. Uh. 1236 01:06:43,160 --> 01:06:46,200 Speaker 1: Even though the Cardinals beat up on the Jets, there's 1237 01:06:46,200 --> 01:06:49,000 Speaker 1: still not a lot to get truly pumped up about 1238 01:06:49,040 --> 01:06:51,200 Speaker 1: about their offense or really where they're at right now, 1239 01:06:51,360 --> 01:06:53,800 Speaker 1: right not knowing that, but it might be a bad 1240 01:06:53,840 --> 01:06:58,800 Speaker 1: game to watch. Parson Palmer has a hamstring injury and 1241 01:06:58,840 --> 01:07:02,280 Speaker 1: hasn't practiced yet this week, So yeah, that's gonna be 1242 01:07:02,280 --> 01:07:05,320 Speaker 1: a bad game at Drew Stanton starts. But I think 1243 01:07:05,360 --> 01:07:07,440 Speaker 1: this is a team that has has to be a 1244 01:07:07,520 --> 01:07:11,000 Speaker 1: David Johnson Larry Fitzgerald offense. We talked about this coming 1245 01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:12,960 Speaker 1: out of the Monday Night game, that they can't protect 1246 01:07:12,960 --> 01:07:16,080 Speaker 1: Carson Palmer. They can't they can't really do anything against 1247 01:07:16,080 --> 01:07:18,000 Speaker 1: blitz Is this year because Palmer is not moving well 1248 01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:19,880 Speaker 1: in the pocket and he's not gonna be moving well 1249 01:07:19,920 --> 01:07:22,400 Speaker 1: with a hamstring injury. So this is gonna have to 1250 01:07:22,400 --> 01:07:25,040 Speaker 1: be David Johnson. And we saw what happened in weeks seventeen, 1251 01:07:25,720 --> 01:07:28,120 Speaker 1: even though the Cardinals weren't really trying as hard as 1252 01:07:28,200 --> 01:07:31,240 Speaker 1: they would in a meaningless game last year, Seahawks absolutely 1253 01:07:31,240 --> 01:07:34,280 Speaker 1: shut David Johnson down. This is this, and this is 1254 01:07:34,320 --> 01:07:36,680 Speaker 1: also comes from our research notes, which ties into what 1255 01:07:36,720 --> 01:07:39,560 Speaker 1: you're saying. Seahawks have no fear of going to Arizona either. 1256 01:07:39,640 --> 01:07:42,600 Speaker 1: They've won the last three straight games between these teams 1257 01:07:42,600 --> 01:07:46,760 Speaker 1: combined score one oh five to thirty four. Seattle always 1258 01:07:46,760 --> 01:07:49,840 Speaker 1: travels well, but especially in Arizona. They don't go there 1259 01:07:49,840 --> 01:07:52,560 Speaker 1: and get intimidated by the scene. Seattle is the better team, 1260 01:07:52,560 --> 01:07:58,520 Speaker 1: I think. But Russell Wilson, he still doesn't really look healthy, 1261 01:07:58,640 --> 01:08:00,680 Speaker 1: he's not running as well. He's past pretty about that 1262 01:08:00,720 --> 01:08:04,160 Speaker 1: past much though for Arizona being an equalizer with a 1263 01:08:04,200 --> 01:08:07,280 Speaker 1: golden and Jones coming off the edges. I like that 1264 01:08:07,360 --> 01:08:11,960 Speaker 1: bookend pass rushers, something they lacked last year definitely, and 1265 01:08:12,040 --> 01:08:13,560 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. He'll be able to get the ball to 1266 01:08:13,640 --> 01:08:16,719 Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham. I think that um Doug Baldwin will probably 1267 01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:19,600 Speaker 1: be taken out of it by Patrick Peterson, but I 1268 01:08:19,640 --> 01:08:21,559 Speaker 1: mean they'll I don't know if it will. It might 1269 01:08:21,600 --> 01:08:25,679 Speaker 1: be a good game. I'm hoping so trying to talk 1270 01:08:25,760 --> 01:08:28,280 Speaker 1: myself into it a little bit, even though last Sunday 1271 01:08:28,400 --> 01:08:31,479 Speaker 1: Night was a poor Mark Last Sunday Oh yeah, Mark 1272 01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:35,439 Speaker 1: a Mark. Mark was catatonic when that game went to overtime. Uh, 1273 01:08:35,479 --> 01:08:37,640 Speaker 1: you know that wouldn't I wouldn't say that was a 1274 01:08:37,680 --> 01:08:41,719 Speaker 1: great game. We're overdue. I'm also I'm kind of appealing 1275 01:08:41,760 --> 01:08:44,800 Speaker 1: to the football gods. You know what. I'm even going 1276 01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:50,439 Speaker 1: next level West, stand down. Dear Jesus, please, I am 1277 01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:53,599 Speaker 1: so bored of watching these bad games on Sunday night. 1278 01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:57,400 Speaker 1: Al Chris and Michelle Tafoya tell him or give us 1279 01:08:57,439 --> 01:08:59,439 Speaker 1: a great game on Sunday night. That's all I ask. 1280 01:08:59,560 --> 01:09:06,879 Speaker 1: I Love Jesus, Dear Buddha, oh Wes, please follow suit. Buddha. 1281 01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:09,519 Speaker 1: Is that where we're coming from now? I mean, we 1282 01:09:09,560 --> 01:09:11,040 Speaker 1: have to save it, but yeah, there's a lot of 1283 01:09:11,360 --> 01:09:13,599 Speaker 1: we have to save it, but you can do it. Dan, fine, 1284 01:09:13,840 --> 01:09:17,400 Speaker 1: your religions, all right, but mine's not. Yeah, imagine no, 1285 01:09:19,280 --> 01:09:23,280 Speaker 1: all right, let's pick this game Seattle at Arizona, Colleague 1286 01:09:24,080 --> 01:09:31,360 Speaker 1: Um taking Seattle's Seattle Christian Kristen Michael's National breakout game. 1287 01:09:31,640 --> 01:09:34,639 Speaker 1: You think it's happened on the National Radar out plays 1288 01:09:34,720 --> 01:09:37,679 Speaker 1: David Johnson in this game. Who I could totally see 1289 01:09:37,680 --> 01:09:39,920 Speaker 1: that happening. I love that you kind of I will 1290 01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:44,360 Speaker 1: lock it up. You're locking it up, locking it up. 1291 01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:51,320 Speaker 1: Kristen Michael out produces David Johnson in this game. I 1292 01:09:51,360 --> 01:09:54,960 Speaker 1: will say this, Wes and Kristin Michael has had some 1293 01:09:55,080 --> 01:09:58,400 Speaker 1: nice moments this season. For the for the Awakening, for 1294 01:09:58,520 --> 01:10:01,240 Speaker 1: Seawoke to truly be sup thing that you predicted properly, 1295 01:10:01,520 --> 01:10:03,880 Speaker 1: we need a big time game here. I let the 1296 01:10:03,880 --> 01:10:07,840 Speaker 1: record stand. I predicted this properly. I'm talking we want 1297 01:10:07,880 --> 01:10:10,120 Speaker 1: him to run for thirteen fourteen under yards. In fact, 1298 01:10:10,120 --> 01:10:12,599 Speaker 1: I predicted both running backs in this game properly, and 1299 01:10:12,720 --> 01:10:19,160 Speaker 1: Terence West so stick it is as he lived up 1300 01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:22,200 Speaker 1: to all this shout out of a cannon when you 1301 01:10:22,200 --> 01:10:25,599 Speaker 1: watch him run, Okay, he's averaging what almost five yards 1302 01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:27,200 Speaker 1: per carry and the rest of their running backs are 1303 01:10:27,200 --> 01:10:30,280 Speaker 1: averaging under two yards per carry. That puts it in perspective. 1304 01:10:30,880 --> 01:10:33,759 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, I wouldn't say it statistically. Is blowing 1305 01:10:33,760 --> 01:10:35,639 Speaker 1: the league away at this point. His game films blowing 1306 01:10:35,680 --> 01:10:40,120 Speaker 1: the league away. Okay, all right, the eye and the 1307 01:10:40,160 --> 01:10:43,599 Speaker 1: Sky doesn't lie, Dan, Trust your eyes next August. When 1308 01:10:43,600 --> 01:10:45,639 Speaker 1: you see a running back running like Kristin Michael, trust 1309 01:10:45,680 --> 01:10:48,360 Speaker 1: your eyes. All right. Well, I I stand by. I 1310 01:10:48,400 --> 01:10:50,040 Speaker 1: need a hundred and fifty yards out of him. If 1311 01:10:50,040 --> 01:10:51,680 Speaker 1: you're gonna talk him up like this, I want to 1312 01:10:51,720 --> 01:10:54,320 Speaker 1: see a dynamic performance. All the I and the Sky stuff. 1313 01:10:54,400 --> 01:10:58,639 Speaker 1: Give me the numbers on the paper. The world revolves 1314 01:10:58,680 --> 01:11:03,479 Speaker 1: around Dan Hanson is expect as. All right, last game, 1315 01:11:04,120 --> 01:11:09,639 Speaker 1: little Monday night football, and uh, here we go. Yeah 1316 01:11:09,720 --> 01:11:12,920 Speaker 1: it is the brock Oswalder well or the John Elway 1317 01:11:12,960 --> 01:11:16,080 Speaker 1: revenge games. Somebody's definitely a revenge game. Yeah, but it's 1318 01:11:16,280 --> 01:11:20,080 Speaker 1: brock Oswalder, who was groomed to take over for Peyton Manning. 1319 01:11:20,680 --> 01:11:23,599 Speaker 1: Uh opted to take more money to go to Houston 1320 01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:26,880 Speaker 1: and is now the the Texans starting quarterback. And but 1321 01:11:27,000 --> 01:11:29,200 Speaker 1: you know what ball teams are foreign to so you think, 1322 01:11:29,240 --> 01:11:32,080 Speaker 1: oh that everybody things worked out for everybody. I don't know. 1323 01:11:32,240 --> 01:11:35,880 Speaker 1: We're gon. We still have to see, um, Colleen, if 1324 01:11:35,880 --> 01:11:38,720 Speaker 1: Brock Oswalder is the guy, and this will be a 1325 01:11:38,720 --> 01:11:42,120 Speaker 1: big referendum against the best defense in football or the 1326 01:11:42,160 --> 01:11:44,840 Speaker 1: a f C against his old team with all the 1327 01:11:44,880 --> 01:11:47,920 Speaker 1: motivation in the world, Brock's gotta do something here. I 1328 01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:50,599 Speaker 1: don't think Brock is gonna look like the guy in 1329 01:11:50,680 --> 01:11:53,760 Speaker 1: this game. This is gonna be tough for him. The 1330 01:11:53,800 --> 01:11:57,519 Speaker 1: Broncos they have Gary Kubiak back, he's getting He's well 1331 01:11:57,640 --> 01:12:01,040 Speaker 1: rested now he's trying to get more sleep. And look, 1332 01:12:01,200 --> 01:12:04,320 Speaker 1: you have Gary Kubiack and Wade Phillips who know him 1333 01:12:04,360 --> 01:12:07,439 Speaker 1: really well. They know his tendencies. This defense is going 1334 01:12:07,479 --> 01:12:10,680 Speaker 1: to be able to exploit him. Plus Trevor Simeon. He 1335 01:12:10,680 --> 01:12:12,960 Speaker 1: has another week to get better. Um, he didn't look 1336 01:12:12,960 --> 01:12:16,240 Speaker 1: one percent healthy last week. And like, I just feel 1337 01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:20,000 Speaker 1: like the Texans aren't the team that they were stocked 1338 01:12:20,040 --> 01:12:22,320 Speaker 1: and loaded to be in the off season. They don't 1339 01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:25,280 Speaker 1: look like it right now. Their defense isn't as dominant 1340 01:12:25,320 --> 01:12:27,800 Speaker 1: as they was as they were J. J. Watt that 1341 01:12:27,880 --> 01:12:32,240 Speaker 1: injury really hurt them. And I just don't think Lamar Miller. 1342 01:12:32,240 --> 01:12:34,120 Speaker 1: I mean, he did well against the Colts last week, 1343 01:12:34,160 --> 01:12:36,920 Speaker 1: but the Broncos that's a totally different story. Yes, it 1344 01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:39,240 Speaker 1: will not be that easy against Denver, that's for sure. 1345 01:12:39,520 --> 01:12:42,360 Speaker 1: Three Revenge is all on Denver side in this game. 1346 01:12:42,600 --> 01:12:44,960 Speaker 1: How is brock Oswarre gonna need revenge after that he 1347 01:12:45,040 --> 01:12:47,559 Speaker 1: was gifted thirty seven million just because he played for 1348 01:12:47,600 --> 01:12:50,760 Speaker 1: the Broncos. The defense can't be happy that he left 1349 01:12:50,840 --> 01:12:52,519 Speaker 1: him high and dry and basically thought he was too 1350 01:12:52,600 --> 01:12:55,599 Speaker 1: good for them. I think is it a thank you game? 1351 01:12:56,800 --> 01:12:58,880 Speaker 1: I don't think thanks I don't think we have thank 1352 01:12:58,920 --> 01:13:03,080 Speaker 1: you games? Do we in the National Football League? Never better? 1353 01:13:03,680 --> 01:13:06,679 Speaker 1: How about this worst case scenario? By the way, Brock 1354 01:13:06,880 --> 01:13:08,880 Speaker 1: is bottoming out playing the way he did for three 1355 01:13:08,920 --> 01:13:12,200 Speaker 1: and a half quarters last Sunday night, and we here 1356 01:13:12,320 --> 01:13:13,920 Speaker 1: we we look over to the pan, over to the 1357 01:13:13,960 --> 01:13:17,040 Speaker 1: sideline and there he is putting on the helmet and 1358 01:13:17,080 --> 01:13:27,280 Speaker 1: get loose Tom Savage baby again? One more is one 1359 01:13:27,320 --> 01:13:29,960 Speaker 1: of my favorite drops. West Well, Tom Savage started game 1360 01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:32,920 Speaker 1: this year not injury related, No question in my mind? 1361 01:13:33,400 --> 01:13:37,599 Speaker 1: Whoa is that a lock. I don't know, Like, well, 1362 01:13:37,640 --> 01:13:39,479 Speaker 1: I don't know, there's got to be like a step 1363 01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:42,639 Speaker 1: below a lock. I just brock us while it does 1364 01:13:42,680 --> 01:13:44,519 Speaker 1: nothing for me, I don't think he's the answer. He's 1365 01:13:44,600 --> 01:13:49,559 Speaker 1: got some mettmburger DNA and let's see that. That's uh. 1366 01:13:49,760 --> 01:13:53,000 Speaker 1: Will Fuller is dealing with the hamstring issues, so he's 1367 01:13:53,200 --> 01:13:55,400 Speaker 1: I feel like he's not as fast either as he was. 1368 01:13:56,000 --> 01:13:58,080 Speaker 1: So yeah, the fact that this is being played in 1369 01:13:58,160 --> 01:14:01,080 Speaker 1: Denver two is not a G eight situation for Brock. 1370 01:14:01,160 --> 01:14:03,160 Speaker 1: Maybe it was in Houston. You can talk yourself into 1371 01:14:03,200 --> 01:14:04,920 Speaker 1: it a little bit, but you get the feeling not 1372 01:14:05,000 --> 01:14:07,160 Speaker 1: only is a guy that's been a scattershot player, but 1373 01:14:07,320 --> 01:14:10,599 Speaker 1: also on the road, crowd going nuts, noise of fact, 1374 01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:13,519 Speaker 1: A lot of this is not shaping up well for 1375 01:14:13,560 --> 01:14:16,439 Speaker 1: the Texans here. Yeah, the Texas Rundy wasn't able to 1376 01:14:16,439 --> 01:14:19,280 Speaker 1: stop Frank Gore, so c J. Anderson he should be 1377 01:14:19,320 --> 01:14:21,200 Speaker 1: able to run. So he hasn't been doing much either 1378 01:14:21,240 --> 01:14:23,439 Speaker 1: since No, but maybe this is the game that he does. Yeah, 1379 01:14:23,439 --> 01:14:27,120 Speaker 1: they're talking about more Davante Booker this week. Again. Interesting 1380 01:14:27,760 --> 01:14:29,800 Speaker 1: all right, I think we all have Denver in the 1381 01:14:29,800 --> 01:14:32,280 Speaker 1: Monday night. Yes, Okay, So there you go. That is 1382 01:14:32,280 --> 01:14:36,720 Speaker 1: our uh preview of all the Sunday games and the 1383 01:14:36,760 --> 01:14:40,760 Speaker 1: Monday night uh affair. The next time you hear from us, 1384 01:14:40,880 --> 01:14:43,400 Speaker 1: we will be breaking down all the games that we 1385 01:14:43,520 --> 01:14:47,840 Speaker 1: just previewed. That's how the wheel operates. Colleen. Thank you? 1386 01:14:48,160 --> 01:14:52,599 Speaker 1: What goes up? I don't know? Does that work? Not? Really? 1387 01:14:54,479 --> 01:15:00,720 Speaker 1: You are a hero both real and uh figurative. Sure 1388 01:15:00,760 --> 01:15:05,080 Speaker 1: sure about that? Mixed signals. You're getting mixed signals signals. 1389 01:15:07,320 --> 01:15:10,280 Speaker 1: When I turned the corner and I'm I'm ripping Chris 1390 01:15:10,320 --> 01:15:17,160 Speaker 1: Martin shoes, I got iced tea in my cup there. Well, 1391 01:15:17,200 --> 01:15:19,639 Speaker 1: everybody was asking you what's in the solo cup? Dan? 1392 01:15:20,640 --> 01:15:22,479 Speaker 1: I thought it was lean. I do like the idea 1393 01:15:22,520 --> 01:15:25,240 Speaker 1: of like eight thirty in the morning, pouring some whiskey 1394 01:15:25,280 --> 01:15:28,080 Speaker 1: into a solo cup and driving to work blasting cold Play. 1395 01:15:28,200 --> 01:15:31,640 Speaker 1: It all makes sense. That sounds like it sounds like 1396 01:15:31,640 --> 01:15:35,360 Speaker 1: a guy that is panicking about the child number two arriving. 1397 01:15:36,120 --> 01:15:40,960 Speaker 1: All right, that's it until Sunday night. Uh.
