But yeah, I don't want to compete 10 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:25,799 Speaker 2: against ourselves. 11 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:27,880 Speaker 1: Remember we got some teams off this week. That makes 12 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:30,400 Speaker 1: it a little more interesting. Yeah, And the buys run 13 00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 1: all the way through Week fourteen this year. 14 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:34,839 Speaker 2: Which is Fantasy playoffs, right, yeah, yeah. 15 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 1: So it's very relevant here. Let's look at defenses as 16 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,880 Speaker 1: we always do. The New York Giants are two thousand 17 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:45,519 Speaker 1: dollars against the Dolphins. New. The Panthers against Detroit are 18 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 1: twenty two hundred New. The Titans against Indianapolis are twenty 19 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 1: four hundred. 20 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 2: It's not bad. I mean that's a running team against 21 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 2: a good run d Yeah, I would think that's a 22 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 2: low scoring game. 23 00:00:56,320 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 1: The Vikings against KC are twenty five hundred against the 24 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:04,560 Speaker 1: Eagles or twenty six hundred The Steelers against the Ravens 25 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 1: are twenty seven hundred. Cardinals against Cincinnati twenty eight hundred. 26 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 2: Who would have thought that? Wow, you know, before the 27 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 2: season started. 28 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 1: The Raiders three thousand. The Saints against the Patriots are 29 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 1: three thousand. That's not bad. 30 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 2: That's gonna be a low scoring game. 31 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,919 Speaker 1: Oh yeah yeah. Jets against Denver are thirty one hundred. 32 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 2: I like those two. 33 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 1: Patriots against the Saints are thirty one hundred. Broncos against 34 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: the Jets are thirty two hundred. 35 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,679 Speaker 2: Rather than Jets, and I would too. Broncos are terrible. 36 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: Colts against the Titans are thirty two hundred. The Cowboys 37 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: against San Francisco are thirty two hundred. No, the Chiefs 38 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 1: against Minnesota are twenty five or thirty three hundred. 39 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 2: I should say, what do you think about Jets or Saints? 40 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: I would play the Saints. 41 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 2: I'm fine with it. Yeah, I just think a smidge 42 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 2: is cheaper. 43 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. I think that Patriots offense right now is. 44 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 2: A mess disaster. 45 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think I'm with you. I think it's 46 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: like a seventeen sixteen game, yeah, somewhere sixteen thirteen something 47 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 1: along those lines.

Yeah, but they don't block anybody. I 136 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 2: mean after watching game. 137 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 1: Jordan Love is fifty eight hundred. 138 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 2: That's not bad against a bad. 139 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: Against a bad Yeah.

They've had corner issues, they've 149 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 2: been allowing good receiver production. I like Stafford a lot 150 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:47,600 Speaker 2: in that game. 151 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: Josh Dobbs is fifty two hundred. 152 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,480 Speaker 2: That's not bad either.

I mean, 162 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 2: does he get the two hundred yards? Probably he's gonna 163 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 2: run a little bit too, run a little bit.

Saquon Barkley's eighty one hundred, but 184 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: he's questionable. 185 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 2: Brian was that big a gap that we wanted. 186 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 1: To Jean Robinson is seventy seven hundred.

They're thirtieth against opposing running backs. 194 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 2: Maybe it's not bad. 195 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 1: Aaron Jones is sixty nine hundred. He's questionable for this game. 196 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:51,559 Speaker 1: They're twenty against posing running backs. Jonathan Taylor is sixty 197 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: eight hundred. Although they get an out next to him here. Really, 198 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 1: if they get some news here. 199 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 2: That maybe there's something that happened recently, I have not 200 00:08:57,920 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 2: heard end today. 201 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 1: Kieran Williams sixty seven hundred.

You can plug him right 204 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:12,079 Speaker 2: in if you want. 205 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: I mean, he won't catch a ton of passes, but 206 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 1: he might score twice. Use him a lot. Yeah, and 207 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: he's gonna get the football. 208 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 2: I think they win in games they win, he's gonna 209 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 2: get a lot of four quarters. 210 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:23,319 Speaker 1: Now that's slightly above. There's there's some other guys here 211 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: that I might like better. Joe Mixon against Arizona is 212 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:32,719 Speaker 1: sixty four hundred. Arizona's thirty first against opposing running backs. 213 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:34,679 Speaker 2: Really, they've been bad. 214 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 1: Alvin Kamara is sixty three hundred. Yeah, twenty one point 215 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 1: four points last week. Just catching dumpoffs. 216 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 2: Against the Patriots too. That could be a real dump 217 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 2: off that situation. 218 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 1: Raheem Mostert is sixty two hundred. 219 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 2: Devon A. 220 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: Chan is sixty one hundred. Why is a Chan cheaper 221 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: than shouldn't be against the Giants who are twenty third 222 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: against opposing running backs? 223 00:09:57,920 --> 00:09:58,959 Speaker 2: Shouldn't be? That's cheap? 224 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 1: Like I like that one. I think maybe even better 225 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: than Montgomery.

So who's some names you like there? I 356 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 2: thought Lamb was cheap. 357 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 1: I like Lamb was cheaper than he should be. 358 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 2: I liked Waddle, I like DeVonta Smith. Forget some of 359 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 2: the other names that were I thought were values. I 360 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 2: thought Ayuk was a value. 361 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson's probably under priced at six thouand no. 362 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 2: I don't know if I want two jets though we 363 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 2: have haul right. 364 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true, that's true. 365 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 2: Awful defense. But Jakoby Myers at fifty five dreds attractive. 366 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 1: I mean you could go. You could go Zay Flowers 367 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 1: and Jakoby Myers at fifty five hundred each. 368 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 2: I've been at, Say Flowers catches seven passes. 369 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 1: Without a doubt, like he's averaging uh twelve point four 370 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 1: points per game in fantasy. He's gonna he's gonna get 371 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: that because he'll get he probably catches seven passes. 372 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 2: I have no problem with that. 373 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 1: Now will he score? 374 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 2: I don't know, but who knows. 375 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: Do you want Zay Flowers and get Chakobe Myers? Yeah, 376 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 1: I don't mind that at all. 377 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 2: I would think we'd have a lot to spend on 378 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 2: a flex. 379 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 1: Then that gets us up to an average of sixty 380 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 1: three hundred. We can spend the rest of the way, 381 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 1: and one of those is the tight end. We might 382 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 1: be able to pay up for a tight end and 383 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 1: get one of the studs. 384 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 2: Okay, I was gonna say the opposite. Let's go get 385 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 2: a sheepy tight end and then go get a Montgomery. 386 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 1: We can do that too, you know. I mean if 387 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 1: we go zach Ertz at thirty five. 388 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 2: Hundred, yeah, that's not a bad one. 389 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: Let's plug it in and then all of a sudden. 390 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 2: Now he's another high volume guy. 391 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 1: Now our average is up to we can spend seventy 392 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: seven hundred or our last two positions. 393 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 2: Which are two spots a flex. 394 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: A wide receiver and a flex. 395 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 2: How about like waddle. 396 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 1: Or well, let's see, so if we plug in in 397 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 1: our flex position, if we plug it, say A Montgomery into. 398 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 2: That, Okay, I'm fine with that. 399 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: Let me see here, where's he at? He's he's sixty 400 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,399 Speaker 1: six hundred. That then leads us with eighty eight hundred 401 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: for the final wide receivers. 402 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,200 Speaker 2: But is that tyrek? Uh? 403 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:17,879 Speaker 1: Not quite? 404 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,679 Speaker 2: Tyreek is nine thousand Jefferson Runners, he's. 405 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 1: Ninety four hundred. That would get us Cooper Cup or 406 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: Devonte Adams. But then we would have both raiders receivers. 407 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,119 Speaker 1: Although everything is funneled through those two receivers. 408 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 2: They do kid, Yeah, let's just uh so through like 409 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:39,880 Speaker 2: the eighty seven or eighty six. 410 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: Is eighty six is Cup, eighty one is DeVonta Adams. 411 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:44,880 Speaker 1: So if we if we do that, we have money 412 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:50,200 Speaker 1: left over. Aj Brown is eight thousand, chases seventy nine hundred, 413 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 1: A Monross Saint Brown is seventy eight hundred. 414 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:55,640 Speaker 2: What if we got rid Of Myers. Could we afford 415 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:57,679 Speaker 2: like Waddle and Lamb. 416 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 1: If we get rid of, we have an average We 417 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 1: have fourteen three left for the final two receivers spots 418 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:10,439 Speaker 1: we could replace. We could replace him with Devonte Adams 419 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,159 Speaker 1: and have sixty two hundred left. 420 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 2: Okay, who's that get us? 421 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:17,400 Speaker 1: Sixty two hundred would get us? Brandon Brandon Ayuk wo. 422 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 2: Ayuk was one of my favorite names. I think the 423 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 2: world doesn't realize how good he is yet. 424 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:26,680 Speaker 1: So that would be Stafford, Bresall, devinih Chan, Jay Flowers, 425 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: Devonte Adams, Brandon Ayuk, Zach Ertz, David Montgomery, and the 426 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 1: Saints defense. 427 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:35,919 Speaker 2: I approved that message. I like it. Yeah, I mean 428 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 2: Yuk made made my day. 429 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 1: All right. So that's the that's the lineup then. So 430 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,399 Speaker 1: we got Matthew Stafford at quarterback for fifty six hundred. 431 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 1: We got Brece Hall at running back for fifty four hundred. 432 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:47,880 Speaker 1: That's way too cheap. 433 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:49,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, he started to hit a stride. 434 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 1: Devin Chan at running back is sixty one hundred. 435 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 2: I don't understand why he's not more than most. 436 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,199 Speaker 1: H Yeah, that doesn't make sense. Now, Zay Flowers at 437 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 1: fifty five hundred against the Steelers. Uh, that's a volume 438 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 1: kind of thing. DeVante Adams at eighty one hundred in 439 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,679 Speaker 1: every revenge game. You think the Devonte Adams scores in 440 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 1: this game? 441 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe twice. Sure, he's awesome. 442 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 1: Brandon Ayuk at sixty two hundred. 443 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 2: So much happier with Adams than Myers too. Yeah, I 444 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 2: didn't dislike the Myers call. 445 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:21,200 Speaker 1: I mean Adams. Ayuk is a solid pairer man. Zach 446 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 1: Ertz at thirty five hundred at tight end. 447 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:27,959 Speaker 2: I bet he catches five balls yeah for thirty Yeah. 448 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: Then you got David Montgomery at the flex because he 449 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 1: is the number one running back in Detroit. Whether people 450 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:35,120 Speaker 1: believe that or. 451 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 2: Not, it's clear. 452 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: Uh. 453 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:37,640 Speaker 2: And then the Saints they win. 454 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. And the Saints defense against New England at three thousand. 455 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 2: Mac Jones is a problem man, and Theirs are line. 456 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:46,280 Speaker 1: Their offensive line is a mess right now. 457 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 2: Sacks in the future. 458 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 1: There locking it in, do it well. Congratulations, We are 459 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,959 Speaker 1: in one thing I wanted to talk about today, Matt Well. 460 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 1: We're on the subject of fantasy football, and it's actually 461 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 1: still irrelevant. So a lot of the fantasy football managers 462 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 1: out there, and I listened to it quite a bit. 463 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:06,919 Speaker 1: I listened to Serious Fantasy, yeah a lot, listening to 464 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 1: a show today and he said the Steelers' backfield is 465 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 1: basically a timeshare right now. 466 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 2: There's a big, big misconception. 467 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 1: On that that is one hundred percent false. 468 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 2: They're only looking at snap counts and target share, but 469 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 2: it's they're not looking at usage. 470 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 1: They're not looking at usage at all. Naji Harris is 471 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,399 Speaker 1: still the lead back in this backfield. 472 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 2: Yes, I mean there's not an ore next to their 473 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 2: name on the depth charge. 474 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: And there's also this misconception out there that Najie Harris 475 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:34,400 Speaker 1: is having a bad year. 476 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 2: Oh man, no, his best year yet. 477 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: Like he is running better than I've ever seen him 478 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:43,359 Speaker 1: run on a week to week basis. The problem has 479 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: been has been the offense hasn't gotten in the red 480 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 1: zone for him to score a touchdown. 481 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,400 Speaker 2: I don't have it in front of me, but I'm 482 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 2: sure we talked about it earlier in the week, but 483 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 2: not everyone probably remembers. I mean, there was four or 484 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 2: five really pressing categories, yards after contact, explosive, run rate, 485 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:04,400 Speaker 2: and I retweeted somebody his numbers are better in all 486 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 2: those categories. Then they've been either one of his years. Yeah, 487 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 2: I mean it's his best year yet. 488 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 1: Jalen Warren is the third downback. 489 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,439 Speaker 2: Yeah that is what he say've been. 490 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:16,960 Speaker 1: Yeah when you pass, when in two of your games 491 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: you've been behind by twenty points or so, give or take. Yeah, 492 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: your third downback is going to be on the field 493 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:23,880 Speaker 1: a lot. 494 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:28,399 Speaker 2: Yeah that's more game script than the depth charge stuff. 495 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: Like this is if they can if this is a Tavy. 496 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 2: Steeler fan listening knows that, yeah, you know, maybe not 497 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:34,880 Speaker 2: every fantasy and a list across the world. 498 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 1: I just think it's a complete misconception. And somehow he's 499 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: like he's having a better season Rymondrie Stevenson. 500 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, I didn't expect that, but he is. 501 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean he's he looks better. I didn't realize 502 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,200 Speaker 1: Stevenson was like sixty sixty carries for one hundred and 503 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: seventy yards or what. 504 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 2: It's been really surprising. I'm a big Stevenson believer. I 505 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 2: don't know if he's hurt or what. 506 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:56,920 Speaker 1: But their lines, their lines have an issue. 507 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 2: It's bad. And then was afraid of the passing game 508 00:21:58,880 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 2: and the same stuff. 509 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 1: Not right right, But no, I think Nausey looks better 510 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 1: than he has his entire career, and. 511 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:07,440 Speaker 2: This is one of the best games he's ever played 512 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 2: a Steeler. I think it's not the only bright spot. 513 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 2: Was the only bright spot on the offense. 514 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, Now, if they can get into that kind of 515 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,120 Speaker 1: if they can keep that kind of game script where 516 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:20,680 Speaker 1: they keep the game close against the Ravens, I think 517 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 1: he'll have some success here. Right, You're not going to 518 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:31,120 Speaker 1: have if Nagy Harris finishes this game with eighteen carries 519 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,919 Speaker 1: for seventy eight yards or something like that, like the 520 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: Steelers have a chance to win. 521 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 2: I do too, and we are in a fantasy segment. 522 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,439 Speaker 2: But when when we were reading out the off the 523 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 2: DFS stuff, I'm like, Naugi's too cheap. I didn't say that, 524 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:47,399 Speaker 2: but I was considering it. It was like, I thought that. 525 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 1: Would continue to be like that because he's gonna They're 526 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 1: going to start scoring touchdowns here at some point. Oh sure, 527 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:54,920 Speaker 1: hopefully soon. 528 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 2: Two days from now. 529 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 1: But I mean, he's just I think he's been completely 530 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 1: under valued in fantasy football as well. He's Jalen Warren's 531 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 1: taking over that back to not I've said this a 532 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 1: thousand times. It's not going to happen. It's nothing against 533 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:09,440 Speaker 1: Jalen Warren. 534 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 2: No, it's not going to happen. 535 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 1: I think it's I think it's I think it's some 536 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 1: of it is the fantasy guys who drafted Jalen Warren, 537 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 1: Well he's he's the hot name here because he's going 538 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 1: to take over that back. I think they're trying to 539 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 1: force their narrative in the reality. 540 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 2: How smart I was. I took Jalen Warren back in 541 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:28,119 Speaker 2: April and dfl or in best Ball or whatever. I 542 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:31,639 Speaker 2: took him Labor Day weekend or whatever. What was I 543 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 2: going to say? 544 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 1: Though? 545 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 2: The problem with Harris and that's why fantasy football correlates 546 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 2: a lot to the real world. But also running for 547 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 2: quarterbacks is too important. Yeah, and so are receptions and 548 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 2: touchdowns for running backs, which isn't his specialty. 549 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:48,399 Speaker 1: It's one of the reasons why in our league, the 550 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 1: league that we play in, you get a point every 551 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: five carries. 552 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,199 Speaker 2: Yeah. I'man another one like the Dynasty one like that. 553 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 1: We did that way back when I can remember. 554 00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,360 Speaker 2: The workhorses get a little something. Yeah. 555 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: The argument it was always like Drome Bettest is perfect. 556 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 1: Drome Bettests will get twenty five carries in the game, 557 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 1: never catch a pass. 558 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 2: And be like one of the most important to you. 559 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 1: He's the most important. He's the guy that touches the ball. 560 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,959 Speaker 1: The only guy touches it more is the quarterback, and 561 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 1: he gets eight points. 562 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 2: He's closing off the game against nine boxes and stuff 563 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 2: like that too, right, right, No, I think there's value there. 564 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 1: So, uh yeah, I think you know, if you're obviously 565 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,439 Speaker 1: if your league doesn't do that, doesn't value touches for 566 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 1: carries for running backs, you should probably try to implement 567 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:32,159 Speaker 1: that because it is it does balance out against the 568 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 1: It's not the same as getting a point per catcher 569 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 1: a half point per catch, no, but what it does 570 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,120 Speaker 1: balance the running back stuff out a little bit. 571 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 2: The decimal scoring league that I'm in, it's very similar 572 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,680 Speaker 2: to yours, but instead of five increments, you get point 573 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 2: twenty five for every carry. 574 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's a little bit more. You actually get 575 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 1: a point every four carries every four That's why a 576 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: guy like David Montgomery I drafted him this year in 577 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 1: our league because I'm like, well. 578 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 2: He's going to get the carries like the Connors of 579 00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 2: the world. 580 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, those guys, yeah, yeah, the guys that go 581 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:02,959 Speaker 1: out there and get an average or average eighteen touches, 582 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: eighteen carries per game, have. 583 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:13,360 Speaker 2: Value, likes them, Yeah, they trust them in those situations. Anyways, well, 584 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 2: off season topic, but I always thought defenses should get 585 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 2: a point or something if their team wins. 586 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,640 Speaker 1: We used to do that. We used to get two 587 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 1: points per win. It was my suggestion, and then the 588 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 1: rest of the guys do it. The rest of the 589 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 1: guys all hated it because they, you know, end up 590 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,679 Speaker 1: losing a game because the defense wanted at the end 591 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:31,879 Speaker 1: and they got an extra two points. 592 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 2: Defense had something to do with you won the. 593 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,879 Speaker 1: Game, Yeah, did you win the game? That's you know, 594 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 1: you could. 595 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 2: I hate when your quarterback throws a pick six and 596 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,680 Speaker 2: your defense has to eat those points, right, Yeah. 597 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 1: That's that's not fair, right right, or that you know, 598 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,159 Speaker 1: he gives up an interception or is a fumble recovery 599 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,679 Speaker 1: inside the five and they punch it in and that 600 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 1: goes against your defense. Yeah, So anyways, we're gonna take 601 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 1: another break. He is Matt Williamson. I am Dale, Lallie. 602 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 1: You're listening to the drive here on Steelers Nation Radio. 603 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 1: When we come back, we'll been through around the rest 604 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,360 Speaker 1: of the games on the slate for Sunday and Monday 605 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 1: when we come back right after this on the Drive, 606 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 1: Steeler Fans, you can gear up with the latest Sideline apparel, 607 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 1: hats or jerseys of your favorite players, authentic memorabilia, custom items, 608 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 1: and exclusives you can only find directly from the team 609 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,639 Speaker 1: at one of the official Steelers pro shops located at 610 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 1: Akroscher Stadium, Grove City Premium Outlets, Tanger Outlets, or visit 611 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 1: online at shop dot Steelers dot com.

Yeah, good slate 616 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 1: of games that will kick off at nine to thirty am. 617 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 1: Don't you forget. Yeah, if you have your Jaguars, this 618 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:52,439 Speaker 1: is easy because they were already over there last week, 619 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: but now the Bills are over there as well, and 620 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 1: you get Jaguars at two and two at the Bills 621 00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:00,440 Speaker 1: three and one in London. That's an NFL Network kicks 622 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 1: off at nine thirty am. The Bill's favored by five 623 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,040 Speaker 1: and a half. The over under is forty eight and 624 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 1: a half. 625 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 2: I love how the Bills are playing, not just because 626 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:12,160 Speaker 2: they dismantled a super hot Miami team, but I think 627 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,679 Speaker 2: on both sides of the ball, they're really good. But 628 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 2: I think staying over there is a huge advantage. 629 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: Not only that the Bills just won a big game 630 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 1: last week. I smell a little bit of a letdown here. 631 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:23,160 Speaker 1: I still think they win the game. 632 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 2: I went to the points. 633 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:25,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll take the five and a half. 634 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 2: Though, Yeah, I think staying over there And you mentioned it. 635 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 2: They went pretty late this week too. 636 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: It was like me yesterday they made the trip. 637 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't like the sound of that. Yeah, I 638 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 2: think they win, but I'll take five and a half. 639 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 1: You got the two and two Texans at the two 640 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 1: and two Falcons. Just kicks off the one o'clock games. 641 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 1: Atlanta favored by one and a half, the over under 642 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 1: forty one and a half. 643 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,399 Speaker 2: I like Atlanta here. I think I could see Houston 644 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 2: letting down and just being young after a huge win 645 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 2: and reading their headlines a little bit this week, and 646 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 2: I think Atlanta is going to be able to run 647 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:54,959 Speaker 2: the ball and run the ball and run. 648 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 1: They will run the ball. Yeah, the Steelers ran the 649 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 1: ball effectively in that game. The problem was is the 650 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 1: offense wasn't on the field the entire first quarter. I mean, 651 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 1: if you think about the script of that game, that's 652 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,639 Speaker 1: why I don't understand why people didn't got so angry 653 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 1: with the offense. I understand why they got any get it. 654 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,680 Speaker 1: The offense was on the field for one possession off 655 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,439 Speaker 1: the bat right in the first the entire first quarter. 656 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: So by the time they got their second possession, they're 657 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 1: already down ten nothing. 658 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 2: And that was on the d that's on the defense. 659 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 2: Of course, the offense could have held the ball longer, 660 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 2: but they only got it once and. 661 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 1: They had two rushing first downs and then all of 662 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 1: a sudden, it's you know it, pick it throws the 663 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 1: interception and you don't get the ball again. 664 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,640 Speaker 2: I thought the defense was worse than the offense, and then. 665 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: I thought so too. Yeah, and I can't. 666 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 2: I know that that's not popular, but I thought it was. 667 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, that can't happen. No, I'm with you. I kind 668 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 1: of like Atlanta in that game. I think the things 669 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 1: have a tendency to even out a little bit. You know, 670 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 1: let me see, and the Falcons know what that they 671 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 1: want to run the football They're going to run the football. 672 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 1: And it doesn't matter if if they were down ten 673 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,160 Speaker 1: points after the first quarter, They're still going to run 674 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 1: the football. 675 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 2: They're still going to run the football. Yeah. 676 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 1: The Panthers at oh and four are at the Lions 677 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 1: at three and one. Detroit favor by ten the old 678 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:11,480 Speaker 1: Runners forty four. That's a big number for a young 679 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:12,200 Speaker 1: football team. 680 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 2: I'm still gonna give it in their building. Golf defense 681 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 2: is shaping up. I don't like where Carolinas at at all. 682 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 1: Frank Reich as a head coach five to two and 683 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 1: one against the spread in his career, as at least 684 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 1: a six point underdog. 685 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 2: Really as seven games, ten's. 686 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 1: A lot seven, that's eight. 687 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:34,520 Speaker 2: There was a one in there. 688 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:39,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, so upj math there you got that one. I probably, 689 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I like the Lions to win it. I 690 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 1: don't know if I want to lay ten then tends 691 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 1: a lot in it. But yeah, you got the two 692 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: and two Titans at the two and two Colts. A 693 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:53,280 Speaker 1: big AFC South showdown here. The entire AFC South right 694 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 1: now is two and two. I know, crazy. Uh, there's 695 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 1: a good chance maybe that the winner of this game 696 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 1: comes out of this in first place. In the AFC South. 697 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, it definitely could happen. 698 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 1: Tennessee favored by two at Indianapolis. The over under is 699 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 1: forty three. I'll take points at home, running dog at 700 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 1: home against of course, it's a running dog against the 701 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 1: one of the league's toughest run defenses. 702 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 2: Still, I just don't think there's gonna be many points 703 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 2: in that game. I don't think I don't take the points. 704 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 1: I might play the under at forty three. 705 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, that seems a lot. I know the Steeler game 706 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 2: is the lowest over under, but I think this game 707 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 2: should be. 708 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,600 Speaker 1: It's pretty close. If not that one, then New Orleans 709 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 1: and New England again. Yeah, Nike, the home team or 710 00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 1: the Titans have covered in five straight meetings against the Colts, 711 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 1: but the Cults were really bad. 712 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Colts have gotten better. 713 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 1: The biggest, the biggest spread of the weekend. You got 714 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 1: the one in three Giants at the three and one Dolphins. 715 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 1: Miami favored by eleven. The over under is forty eight 716 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 1: and a half. 717 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 2: I'll lay the points. I think Miami is quite good 718 00:30:56,040 --> 00:31:00,479 Speaker 2: and the Giants are far from good. I think Phil Slaves, 719 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 2: I think Jones gets hit a lot. Yeah, I'll take 720 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 2: Miami there. 721 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, Daniel Jones. Could he run his way into keeping 722 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 1: the sure would, Yeah, you know, but I don't know 723 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 1: if their defense can slow down. 724 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 2: That's the problem. Uh. 725 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 1: You get the two and two Saints at the one 726 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: and three Patriots, New England favored by one. The over 727 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 1: under is thirty nine. 728 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 2: I'll take the points. 729 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, give me, I'll take the Saints. 730 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 2: And I didn't like it always saw from car but 731 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 2: I hope it's better this week, one another week, you know, 732 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 2: from the injury. Yeah. 733 00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:38,400 Speaker 1: According to according to ESPN, the Patriots have to have 734 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 1: the worst past block win rate in the NFL at 735 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 1: thirty nine point seven percent. That's one of the things. 736 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 1: So there's somebody who puts out a chart I don't 737 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 1: I don't know who it is on social media on 738 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 1: Twitter or X or the former Yeah, the ex Twitter 739 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 1: as I like to call, and he matches up. He 740 00:31:57,160 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 1: has a chart that matches up PFF's grade against ESPN's. Great. 741 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 2: It might be a third one on it. 742 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 1: There's like three there and the one outlier on that 743 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 1: that doesn't match up, like the rest of them are 744 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 1: all pretty close. 745 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 2: To what they are is the Steelers. 746 00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:13,920 Speaker 1: Because Pro Football Focus has them as the worst pass 747 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:15,600 Speaker 1: blocking group in the league. 748 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 2: But the other ones don't, and the other ones don't. Yeah, 749 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 2: which is weird, but that's why he does it, so 750 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,040 Speaker 2: you don't get Yeah, if it's just a pro football 751 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 2: focused one, you look terrible. But no, I hear what 752 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 2: you're saying. 753 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 1: So, but ESPN has the Patriots as the worst pass. 754 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 2: You mentioned that, I guess was last segment. It's a 755 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 2: lot worse than people think. Yeah, it's it's a disaster. 756 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 1: By the way, Adrian clem is the offensive line coach there, 757 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 1: Remember him? Remember him? 758 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 2: Uh? Yeah? I like to. 759 00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 1: I like to. The Saints have the better defense, especially 760 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 1: especially now with Jude On and. 761 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 2: Gonzalez out, And is j C. 762 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 1: Jackson going to come in and play right away from 763 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:56,840 Speaker 1: the I don't care if he does or not. Uh yeah, 764 00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 1: I'll take them. 765 00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:58,320 Speaker 2: Saints have weapons. 766 00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 1: Yeah right, that's the other thing. You got the four 767 00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 1: and oh Eagles at the two and two Rams, Philadelphia 768 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 1: favored on the road by four and a half, the 769 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 1: over unders fifty and a half. I would expect a 770 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 1: lot of Eagles fans in less Tis. 771 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 2: I would think there's a lot of green in the stage. Yeah, 772 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 2: I don't think the Rams, though. 773 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 1: Fifty and a half over under in that game. That's 774 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 1: a lot. 775 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 2: It's a lot. That's why I liked our Stafford pick, 776 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 2: and I think there could be a lot of points 777 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 2: in that game. I don't love where the Eagles are at. 778 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 2: I think they end up winning it, but I think 779 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:26,120 Speaker 2: the Rams keep that closed. 780 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:27,959 Speaker 1: The four and a half is probably too much too give. 781 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 2: That's more of a field goal game. 782 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 1: The one in three Bengals are at the one in 783 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 1: three Cardinals. This is a four o'clock game. Cincinnati favored 784 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: by three. The over runner forty four and a half. 785 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 1: Should Cincinnati be favored by three right now over anybody? 786 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 2: I think Arizona should be favored by three in this game. 787 00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm kind of surprised, folks. As bad as the 788 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 1: Steelers offense has been, and it's been bad, oh yeah, 789 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 1: Cincinnati's offense has been worse. It has and I know 790 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 1: Burrow came out. So Burrow made a statement this week, 791 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 1: My calf feels better coming out of a game than 792 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 1: at any other time this season. 793 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 2: That doesn't mean he's healthy, that doesn't mean it's good. 794 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 1: It just means he's He didn't tweak it during the game. 795 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:09,319 Speaker 1: But that doesn't mean he's he's one hundred percent healthy. 796 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:11,720 Speaker 2: Actually means he isn't right. He was said, Oh it's. 797 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:13,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll know I'm back to normal. That's not what 798 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 1: he said. 799 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 2: And Higgins is questionable. And no, I'll think the Cardinals 800 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:18,839 Speaker 2: are gonna give me points at home. 801 00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I just think I think they can just win 802 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:24,200 Speaker 1: this outright too. 803 00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:26,399 Speaker 2: I'm not saying they will, but if you'renn give me points, 804 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 2: I'm in. 805 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:29,960 Speaker 1: H You got the one and three Jets at the 806 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 1: one and three Broncos, that's the fourth game. 807 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:33,840 Speaker 2: They might it might be toasted. 808 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:36,239 Speaker 1: Uh, the one and three Jets are the one and 809 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:38,279 Speaker 1: three Broncos Denver favored by two. 810 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 2: I think that's wrong too. 811 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,839 Speaker 1: I think that's wrong. And the over under is forty 812 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:43,560 Speaker 1: three and a half. That might be wrong too, But. 813 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:47,319 Speaker 2: No, I like the Jets to win outright. Yeah. 814 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:48,680 Speaker 1: I don't know how the I don't know how the 815 00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 1: Broncos score more than like thirteen points, fourteen points somewhere, 816 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 1: and I think they're I think they're scoring. I think 817 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 1: they score in the teams so that. 818 00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:00,239 Speaker 2: I think Zach Wilson might not stink anymore. I mean, 819 00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 2: I'm worried that I would eat those words. But you're 820 00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:04,760 Speaker 2: going to be able to just run The football defense 821 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:06,720 Speaker 2: is so bad it's awful, Yeah, awful. 822 00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:11,880 Speaker 1: Yeah. I just think that they're they'll run right through them. 823 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 1: You got the three and one Chiefs at the one 824 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: and three Vikings k C favored by four. The over 825 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 1: under fifty two and a half. 826 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,480 Speaker 2: I think the Vikings keep that to a field goal. 827 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 2: Chiefs Chiefs aren't. 828 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 1: Chiefs are not playing well right now. 829 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 2: No, they aren't dominating any means. They're figuring things out. 830 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:32,759 Speaker 1: The over under might even be too high on. 831 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:35,360 Speaker 2: That could be. I bet Kansas City. 832 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:40,920 Speaker 1: Is Kansas City. Kansas City's defense is played okay, and I'm. 833 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:42,719 Speaker 2: Maledgeable one off in the betting world, but I bet 834 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 2: most case games have gone under. Yeah, I just they 835 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:49,399 Speaker 2: they're not because you know, yeah, and how bikes keep 836 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:49,800 Speaker 2: that closed. 837 00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 1: The Chiefs are two and five against the spread in 838 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 1: their past seven road games. 839 00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:56,279 Speaker 2: Spread there a little better than they are. 840 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 1: People still they got mahomes or a juggernaut. That's not 841 00:35:59,200 --> 00:35:59,840 Speaker 1: been the case. 842 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 2: It hasn't. Vikings d has been a little better than 843 00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 2: I thought, too well coached, you know. 844 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:07,960 Speaker 1: Uh, you got the three and one Cowboys just being 845 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 1: the Sunday night game three and one Cowboys at the 846 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:14,959 Speaker 1: four and o forty nine Ers San Francisco favored by four. 847 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:16,960 Speaker 1: The over under is forty five. 848 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 2: If it was two and a half, I would take 849 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:22,839 Speaker 2: the the Niners. I think that's a field goal game. 850 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:23,880 Speaker 2: It's all said and done. 851 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:25,719 Speaker 1: It wasn't in the playoffs last year. 852 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:26,400 Speaker 2: I know, I know. 853 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:29,799 Speaker 1: I don't trust you know this. I don't trust Dak 854 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 1: Prescott at all in a big game. 855 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:33,440 Speaker 2: I just think four is a good number. 856 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:35,279 Speaker 1: I think I think they turned Zach pre I think 857 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,279 Speaker 1: they turned Dak Prescott over a couple of times in 858 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:40,480 Speaker 1: this game. Could and I think the forty nine Ers cover. 859 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 2: I said this on my podcast. It's an hour ago 860 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:47,879 Speaker 2: or whatever. If it's a blowout, it's not in Dallas's favor. Yeah, 861 00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,840 Speaker 2: Like I could see them getting beat bad or it 862 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:51,799 Speaker 2: being a really close game. 863 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:53,840 Speaker 1: Parsons is dealing with a little bit of an injury, 864 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 1: like they're just not I don't know. 865 00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:59,239 Speaker 2: I hear, I hear it. If it was three or under, 866 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 2: I would definitely take the Niners. 867 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 1: And the final game, the Monday night game. This week, 868 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:07,560 Speaker 1: you've got the Devonte Adams revenge game. 869 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 2: A lot of Steeler fans went to Vegas. How many 870 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 2: cheeseheads are gonna. 871 00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:15,399 Speaker 1: Be yeah, right, yeah, the two and two Packers at 872 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:17,879 Speaker 1: the one and three Raiders. Green Bay favored by one. 873 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:20,920 Speaker 1: The over under forty five or forty four and a half. 874 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,759 Speaker 2: Actually, last I saw that green Bay was getting one, and. 875 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:25,680 Speaker 1: This is apparently changed. 876 00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:27,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, but maybe it has. I wouldn't know, but I 877 00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:29,279 Speaker 2: like the Packers will win big. Actually, I think the 878 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:32,080 Speaker 2: Raiders are bad. I do think Devonte could go crazy. 879 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:35,759 Speaker 2: But I consider Jordan Love even for one of our quarterbacks. 880 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:37,640 Speaker 2: And I don't know if Jones and Watson are playing. 881 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:41,839 Speaker 2: It doesn't look phenomenal. But yeah, how many the Packers there. 882 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:42,799 Speaker 2: It's going to be a Hume game. 883 00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:45,040 Speaker 1: The Raiders a zero and three against the spread in 884 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:48,920 Speaker 1: their last three games. Josh McDaniels in his past forty 885 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:52,160 Speaker 1: three games as a head coach is sixteen and twenty 886 00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:56,200 Speaker 1: seven against the spread. He started six and zero against 887 00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:59,520 Speaker 1: the spread really as a head coach, so it's been 888 00:37:59,560 --> 00:37:59,960 Speaker 1: really bad. 889 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:02,399 Speaker 2: Since they're horrible. I think they're a pretty bad team. 890 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:06,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, maybe maybe next year when Belichick is coaching 891 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 1: the Raiders and the McDaniels is his offensive coordinator. That 892 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:11,120 Speaker 1: will work out a little better. 893 00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:15,759 Speaker 2: That's probably what they're both suited to do. I don't 894 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 2: love Green Bay, but I think they're the better team. 895 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:18,359 Speaker 1: I think so too. 896 00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 2: If that's more or less a home game for him, Yeah, 897 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:21,759 Speaker 2: one's line up. 898 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's gonna do it for our game or our 899 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:28,279 Speaker 1: look at the games this week. We're going to get 900 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:30,319 Speaker 1: to another break when we come back. It's time for 901 00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:32,960 Speaker 1: our picks in the Steelers Ravens game. Matt and I 902 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:36,480 Speaker 1: will do that right after this welcome back. I am 903 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:39,399 Speaker 1: Dale Lallie. He is the Matt Williamson. There is no 904 00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:41,920 Speaker 1: imitation there. There's plenty of imitators out there. He's the 905 00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:45,560 Speaker 1: only one. There aren't many Dale Lawley's out there now, 906 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,080 Speaker 1: but there's probably quite a few Matt Williamson's. 907 00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 2: I'm sure my kids a year or two ago googled 908 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,799 Speaker 2: Matt Williamson, and I was the most well known one. 909 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:55,440 Speaker 1: Oh well, there you go. 910 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:59,120 Speaker 2: That's probably changed. My stock's definitely dropping. 911 00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:04,920 Speaker 1: Anyways, Matt, it's time for us to make our picks 912 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 1: in the Steelers Ravens game. 913 00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:13,920 Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't know, man, help me go first, Go ahead, 914 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:18,239 Speaker 2: So in my little brain, my little cranium, I've been 915 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:22,080 Speaker 2: going back and forth. Are the team that's playing better? 916 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:27,120 Speaker 2: Clearly the Ravens going to dominate this game, and don't 917 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 2: care that the names are Tomlin Harbaugh Raven Steelers or 918 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,440 Speaker 2: is this gonna be a Raven Steeler game? And I 919 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:39,359 Speaker 2: don't know, you know, I mean, watching both games, I 920 00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:43,760 Speaker 2: went with twenty four to ten Baltimore. And I bet 921 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 2: you and Pursuda, who I talked to last night that 922 00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 2: sees all these games are gonna have it be a 923 00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:52,320 Speaker 2: field goal game one way or another because you've lived 924 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,279 Speaker 2: through it, and not that I haven't watched them over 925 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 2: the years too. So I don't know what to do. 926 00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 2: But I'm gonna go with twenty four to ten Baltimore 927 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:04,520 Speaker 2: or and take the emotion out of it and all 928 00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:07,239 Speaker 2: that stuff and just pick the better team. 929 00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:11,839 Speaker 1: Okay, I get it. I think the Steelers come out 930 00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,560 Speaker 1: and do keep this a closer football game than that. 931 00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 1: I do not see the offense. So what we've seen 932 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:22,440 Speaker 1: thus far from the Steelers bad performance by the offense 933 00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 1: a little bit better against the Bengals or the Browns 934 00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 1: in Week two, even though that's a good defense. We 935 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:36,000 Speaker 1: saw another step forward against the Raiders. Now, we saw 936 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:38,200 Speaker 1: a step back last week, and yes, I get that, 937 00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:41,480 Speaker 1: so I expect them to get back and get things 938 00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:43,480 Speaker 1: righted a little bit. I do expect Kenny Pickett to 939 00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:45,600 Speaker 1: play better. I do expect them to lean more on 940 00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:47,840 Speaker 1: Augie Harrison, Najie Harris's. 941 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:48,799 Speaker 2: I like what he's doing. 942 00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:50,239 Speaker 1: I like what he's doing, and I think I think 943 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,120 Speaker 1: he'll have some success, And if he can have success, 944 00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 1: the Steelers can stay in this game. I don't know 945 00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:01,840 Speaker 1: that the Ravens necessarily have our head and shoulders better 946 00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:02,560 Speaker 1: at kicker. 947 00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:05,239 Speaker 2: No, not necessarily, I don't. 948 00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:07,279 Speaker 1: I don't think. I mean in years past, Oh yeah, 949 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 1: Tucker's the Tuckers. He's shown he's human. 950 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:11,960 Speaker 2: This year, yeah, I eventually's gonna get old, right, Yeah, 951 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:13,120 Speaker 2: he's greatest ever. 952 00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,320 Speaker 1: So I think you know that kind of levels of 953 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:17,920 Speaker 1: playing field. I do think this is going to be 954 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:21,960 Speaker 1: a field position game. Field position game, because they all are. 955 00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:24,600 Speaker 1: Neither team comes out and just blows the other one's 956 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:28,279 Speaker 1: doors off. Not typically it happens here and there, but 957 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:31,440 Speaker 1: not on a consistent basis. Ever. I mean it's like 958 00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:34,000 Speaker 1: once every decade. 959 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:35,440 Speaker 2: I nine out of ten, don't. I mean that's my 960 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:36,720 Speaker 2: big concern with my prediction. 961 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:39,719 Speaker 1: So I do think that, and I think that Mike 962 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:44,399 Speaker 1: Tomlin challenged his team this week, uh physically in terms 963 00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:46,880 Speaker 1: of of hey, guys, that that what we put on 964 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:50,359 Speaker 1: the field in terms of our physicality last week. That 965 00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:52,480 Speaker 1: can't be. That's that's below the line. 966 00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:53,720 Speaker 2: That's something you can control. 967 00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:56,319 Speaker 1: That is one percent something that you can control as 968 00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 1: a player. And so I expect the Steelers to come 969 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 1: out and physically matched the Ravens. If not, you know, 970 00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:07,960 Speaker 1: out physical, then you know, the Ravens just played a 971 00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:09,840 Speaker 1: physical game against the Browns last week. 972 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:13,000 Speaker 2: You know, I don't spite not having quarterbacks. The Browns 973 00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:13,799 Speaker 2: are the Browns are. 974 00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:18,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a physical game. The injuries do concern me 975 00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:20,400 Speaker 1: a little bit here with some of the guys that 976 00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:22,479 Speaker 1: the Steelers are going to be missing here. But again 977 00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 1: we talked about that depth and the wounded animal situation here. 978 00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:30,239 Speaker 2: Proud organization. I get all that part. And what's your 979 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:30,960 Speaker 2: what's your score? 980 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:32,239 Speaker 1: I'm getting to that. 981 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 2: Oh okay, I thought I interrupted right what you were saying. No, 982 00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:38,799 Speaker 2: I'm getting there by all means. 983 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:41,040 Speaker 1: You know, I think if the Steelers can force a 984 00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:43,279 Speaker 1: turnover or two which I think they're capable of doing. 985 00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:47,120 Speaker 1: They can stay in this game. And and you know, 986 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:50,600 Speaker 1: despite Pickett throwing four interceptions thus far, the Steelers have 987 00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 1: done a pretty good job taking care of the football 988 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:56,319 Speaker 1: overall as a whole. Uh, the weather could affect this game, 989 00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:58,880 Speaker 1: and I'm not sure which team that favors. 990 00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:01,919 Speaker 2: I'm not either. I think it could slow down edge 991 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:06,120 Speaker 2: pass rushers a little, but both these teams are mutter esque. Yeah. 992 00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:08,759 Speaker 1: I do think that the team that were and the 993 00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:10,800 Speaker 1: Ravens don't do this as much as they used to. 994 00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:14,319 Speaker 1: That relies more on the RPO stuff and your mesh 995 00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:16,000 Speaker 1: points and all that kind of stuff and getting the 996 00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:20,319 Speaker 1: handoffs correct. Weather can affect that, but they don't do 997 00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:21,359 Speaker 1: it as much as they used to. 998 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:24,600 Speaker 2: No, there's not as much. You're right about that option stuff. 999 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:27,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, the read option stuff just isn't as prevalent 1000 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:28,920 Speaker 1: as it was before. That's one. It's one change a 1001 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 1: Todd Monkin has made for the Ravens question. In the end, 1002 00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:36,479 Speaker 1: I can't pick the Steelers in this game, not given 1003 00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:39,799 Speaker 1: the way they played last week. I'm going to take 1004 00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:42,960 Speaker 1: the Ravens twenty three seventeen. I do think the Steelers 1005 00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:48,719 Speaker 1: score a few more points than what's expected these things. Like, 1006 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:50,680 Speaker 1: so the last time they played it was a sixteen 1007 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:55,799 Speaker 1: thirteen game down in Baltimore. Yes, you typically get in 1008 00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:58,480 Speaker 1: divisional games, one game that goes over and one that 1009 00:43:58,520 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 1: goes under. 1010 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:01,279 Speaker 2: Have they I mean that's just me. 1011 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:05,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, when you look at you know, two teams that 1012 00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:07,799 Speaker 1: know each other well and play each other a lot, 1013 00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:12,359 Speaker 1: there's typically you never you rarely see what both games are, 1014 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:18,719 Speaker 1: thirteen to ten something like that. Okay, I just you know, 1015 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:22,960 Speaker 1: Will I'd be pleasantly surprised if the Steelers. No, I 1016 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:26,680 Speaker 1: think the Steelers can win this game. I just I'm 1017 00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:27,919 Speaker 1: just not going to pick it right now. 1018 00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:29,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, just have a bad taste in my 1019 00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:32,560 Speaker 2: mouth of what I saw in Houston. A big concern for me, 1020 00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:37,080 Speaker 2: Two big concerns. One is the biggest one, honestly is 1021 00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:40,840 Speaker 2: the starts. If they have a slow start the Steelers 1022 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 2: against this team Ravens, have a touchdown lead at the half, 1023 00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:50,719 Speaker 2: they suffocate you. And I think that's that worries me 1024 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:51,040 Speaker 2: a lot. 1025 00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:53,040 Speaker 1: I think if you can keep it within one score, 1026 00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:56,120 Speaker 1: you're still okay. Maybe you can't be two scores, Yeah, 1027 00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:58,760 Speaker 1: you can't. They you can't allow them to just continue 1028 00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:00,319 Speaker 1: to milk time off the clock because they'll do that 1029 00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:01,120 Speaker 1: all day long. 1030 00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:04,360 Speaker 2: All day long. Yeah, you know, and and and you know. 1031 00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:06,120 Speaker 2: So that worries me is. 1032 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:07,640 Speaker 1: If you could keep it, if you could keep it 1033 00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:11,120 Speaker 1: to seven or under, I think you're okay because Pickett 1034 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:13,720 Speaker 1: did show the ability last year against the same Ravens 1035 00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:17,320 Speaker 1: defense in the in the game's winning moments, moments to 1036 00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:18,399 Speaker 1: take you down and win the game. 1037 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:20,399 Speaker 2: And he has faced this defense. We keep talking about 1038 00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:23,000 Speaker 2: the coordinator change that didn't happen, that happened two years ago. 1039 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:24,359 Speaker 2: Only face this guy. 1040 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:26,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is the one that he has faced. So 1041 00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:29,840 Speaker 1: he is he is familiar with this. He's he's ready 1042 00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:33,560 Speaker 1: readied himself to play these guys now three times. And 1043 00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:39,520 Speaker 1: I will say this today, Pickett didn't even have the 1044 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:43,920 Speaker 1: knee brace on. Like he's moving. He's moving around fine. 1045 00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:47,360 Speaker 1: And the that that's the knee bone bruce thing, I 1046 00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:48,920 Speaker 1: don't even think is a concern right now. 1047 00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:51,520 Speaker 2: Good, that's great. Well, I didn't expect that when I 1048 00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:57,320 Speaker 2: saw that play. I hope I'm wrong, But through four games, 1049 00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:02,360 Speaker 2: this is true. When the Steeler defense makes big plays, 1050 00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:07,719 Speaker 2: they're in it. When they don't, they get beat bad. 1051 00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:12,640 Speaker 2: Now that needs to change. Is this offense sets you 1052 00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:14,520 Speaker 2: up for a lot of big plays. I don't think 1053 00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:14,919 Speaker 2: it does. 1054 00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:15,480 Speaker 1: It doesn't. 1055 00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:17,359 Speaker 2: They don't put the ball on harms way. I will 1056 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:19,879 Speaker 2: say it doesn't happen. I will say this though, if 1057 00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:23,760 Speaker 2: you look at TJ. Watts home numbers versus his road numbers, 1058 00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:27,439 Speaker 2: he gets a lot more sacks at home. He also 1059 00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 2: has a streak going against the Ravens and an AFC 1060 00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:33,520 Speaker 2: North craziness, and you think they're gonna get held out. 1061 00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:35,160 Speaker 2: Do you think he's gonna have zero this week? 1062 00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:36,960 Speaker 1: Yeah? No, I don't think so at all. 1063 00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 2: And I do think is going to play. 1064 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:40,600 Speaker 1: I think is going to be the right tackle for 1065 00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens. And that is scary. 1066 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:45,880 Speaker 2: What might be the best player in the field. I 1067 00:46:45,880 --> 00:46:47,399 Speaker 2: mean I'm not dismissing that at all. 1068 00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:49,560 Speaker 1: He's right there with Lamar right right, yeah. I mean 1069 00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:51,400 Speaker 1: that's your two queens on the chessboard. 1070 00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:53,080 Speaker 2: But when we talk Monday, it might be like, what 1071 00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:55,640 Speaker 2: was unbelievable? I think that's very possible. 1072 00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:57,680 Speaker 1: He could have a James Harrison type. You know they 1073 00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:01,160 Speaker 1: have a teacher ten. But if you think back to 1074 00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:04,520 Speaker 1: that game, like the game that James Harrison had against 1075 00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:07,359 Speaker 1: the Ravens in two thousand and seven, when he had 1076 00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:11,600 Speaker 1: like ten tackles, three sacks, two forced fumbles in interception. 1077 00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:14,759 Speaker 2: I mean, it just was like saying defensive he did 1078 00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:15,200 Speaker 2: that in the. 1079 00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:17,879 Speaker 1: Same game that Ben Roethlisberger. I think he had four 1080 00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:22,400 Speaker 1: first half touchdowns against the Ravens and nobody talks about that. 1081 00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:25,600 Speaker 1: It's all about the James Harrison at the greatest game 1082 00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:27,160 Speaker 1: I've ever seen a defensive player. 1083 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:31,359 Speaker 2: Had a couple of things I forget. Yeah, I mean 1084 00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:33,359 Speaker 2: that's good at the defensive games you've ever seen. 1085 00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:35,880 Speaker 1: Again, if you're getting in there, if you're beating the 1086 00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:39,480 Speaker 1: offensive tackle at the on running plays and blowing up 1087 00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:42,480 Speaker 1: running play, if you're getting there as Lamar is handing 1088 00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:44,480 Speaker 1: the football off and you can force a fumble. 1089 00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:46,279 Speaker 2: And if they're not able to attack your corners because 1090 00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 2: you got to get her on. 1091 00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:50,760 Speaker 1: That guy, that could certainly I mean. 1092 00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:54,080 Speaker 2: Beat off a lot. 1093 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:57,400 Speaker 1: Think back to the game against the Browns. Like again, 1094 00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:01,160 Speaker 1: Dwan Jones is a rookie lele as a second year player, 1095 00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:02,920 Speaker 1: Dwan Jones is a better player. 1096 00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:06,080 Speaker 2: Much rather have Jones. 1097 00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 1: And t J watch just turned him into a turnstyle. 1098 00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:11,840 Speaker 2: He looks phenomenal this year. Yeah, and you're talking about, 1099 00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:15,680 Speaker 2: you know, proud guys bouncing back after sub par performances. 1100 00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:19,120 Speaker 1: I just think I think back to Wat Watt's sitting 1101 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:21,120 Speaker 1: there after that game in Houston is saying, I had 1102 00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:23,440 Speaker 1: a bad game. I had a bad day. I had 1103 00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:25,480 Speaker 1: a bad you know, the defense as a whole, he did. 1104 00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:28,480 Speaker 1: But by his standards, you know, when he was, so 1105 00:48:28,520 --> 00:48:32,160 Speaker 1: when he's ticked off, I expect him to bounce back. 1106 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:34,319 Speaker 1: I expect the rest of the defense to bounce back again. 1107 00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:37,280 Speaker 2: I think I think phenomenal if they win this game. 1108 00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:40,440 Speaker 1: It's because the Again, if the defense forces some turnovers, 1109 00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:42,680 Speaker 1: the Steelers can absolutely win this game. But I think 1110 00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:44,399 Speaker 1: the offense plays better as well this year. 1111 00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:46,080 Speaker 2: And I don't think that's a good trend to lean on. 1112 00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:48,160 Speaker 1: It's it's not you know, I don't. 1113 00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:50,359 Speaker 2: I mean, but that's better than anybody at doing it. 1114 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:53,560 Speaker 1: It's it's one a how they're built to built the play. 1115 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:56,680 Speaker 1: It's not an accident. That's what they're their defense. They're 1116 00:48:56,680 --> 00:48:59,640 Speaker 1: built to ride their defense. That's where all the money 1117 00:48:59,680 --> 00:49:02,080 Speaker 1: on offense, or all the money on that the roster 1118 00:49:02,239 --> 00:49:05,480 Speaker 1: is spent on that side of the ball. You know, 1119 00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:08,160 Speaker 1: we haven't seen Meca Fitzpatrick make a big play yet, 1120 00:49:08,280 --> 00:49:10,520 Speaker 1: a big, big play like it looks great a turnover yet, 1121 00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:11,600 Speaker 1: but he looks fantastic. 1122 00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:14,520 Speaker 2: He's due Mica and Watt and high Smith don't worry 1123 00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:15,080 Speaker 2: me at all. 1124 00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:17,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I could see one of those guys making 1125 00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:21,400 Speaker 1: getting the Steelers an early touchdown and then the offense 1126 00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:24,680 Speaker 1: kind of right, yeah, because if you make your Ravens. 1127 00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:26,520 Speaker 2: A big play in the first quarter on defense would 1128 00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:27,200 Speaker 2: go a long way. 1129 00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:29,080 Speaker 1: You want to talk about a team that's not built 1130 00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:31,680 Speaker 1: you get that crowd moving. You know, a team that's 1131 00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:34,920 Speaker 1: not built to play from behind, it's the Baltimore Ravens. 1132 00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:36,960 Speaker 2: I don't know anymore. 1133 00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:39,160 Speaker 1: I mean I still don't think they are. I mean 1134 00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:45,160 Speaker 1: because they because their passing game, their passing game right 1135 00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:49,600 Speaker 1: now is set up for them to do twelve play drives. 1136 00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:54,040 Speaker 2: No agreed, Agreed, Yeah, I tend to agree with you. 1137 00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:56,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, they're throwing it better, and they're 1138 00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:59,520 Speaker 1: throwing it, but they're still a run first team. 1139 00:49:59,840 --> 00:50:03,560 Speaker 2: They so are. Yeah, I mean that's our strengths. Yeah, 1140 00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:07,319 Speaker 2: I'm interested. I mean what you don't want again is 1141 00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:10,799 Speaker 2: the slow start, the crowd turn yeah, and. 1142 00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:13,040 Speaker 1: You know if they go out and go three and 1143 00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:16,719 Speaker 1: out on the first possession and the booze start, that's 1144 00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:18,040 Speaker 1: really counter productive. 1145 00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:20,280 Speaker 2: First of all, you're not doing your team anything. 1146 00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:22,040 Speaker 1: You're not doing your team any favors by. 1147 00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:24,240 Speaker 2: Doing understand your displeasure. 1148 00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:26,359 Speaker 1: Correct, Yeah, But at the same time, do you want 1149 00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:27,680 Speaker 1: them to win the game or you don't want them 1150 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:29,239 Speaker 1: to win the game. That's not the best way to 1151 00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:29,480 Speaker 1: do it. 1152 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:33,080 Speaker 2: That's not the best way to help the mood. Everyone 1153 00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:35,920 Speaker 2: understands what's going on here, folks. Yeah, you're not helping. 1154 00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:38,560 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, I'm really looking forward. I wouldn't 1155 00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:40,239 Speaker 1: even mind the Steelers offense and go with a little 1156 00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:41,400 Speaker 1: bit of pace in this game. 1157 00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:44,200 Speaker 2: If I win the coin flip, I want Baltimore to 1158 00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:44,680 Speaker 2: get the ball. 1159 00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:47,040 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I want my I want my best unit 1160 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:47,560 Speaker 1: on the field. 1161 00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:50,680 Speaker 2: Hopefully get a hit on Lamar. Yeah, get a tip 1162 00:50:50,719 --> 00:50:52,839 Speaker 2: pass or something along lines early, and then you get 1163 00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:53,800 Speaker 2: the ball and come out of the second. 1164 00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:56,120 Speaker 1: I'll be honest too, this Baltimore defense is not as 1165 00:50:56,120 --> 00:50:58,080 Speaker 1: scary as ones in the past. 1166 00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:02,520 Speaker 2: I'm closed. I mean, their numbers are phenomenal, but I 1167 00:51:02,719 --> 00:51:06,400 Speaker 2: truly and I'm not trying to make Steeler fans happy 1168 00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:11,480 Speaker 2: or you know, optimistic. Their numbers don't reflect what you watch, right, 1169 00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:12,759 Speaker 2: It's a fine. 1170 00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:14,080 Speaker 1: You can run against this team. 1171 00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:17,759 Speaker 2: It's a mediocre defense to meet team made some brutal team. 1172 00:51:17,880 --> 00:51:20,880 Speaker 1: Their defensive numbers are propped up by the fact that 1173 00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:23,800 Speaker 1: their offense holds the ball so long. And it always 1174 00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:25,200 Speaker 1: has been to some degree. 1175 00:51:25,400 --> 00:51:28,239 Speaker 2: Burrow was an NFL quarterback, and you know, Minshew was 1176 00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:30,279 Speaker 2: the best quarterback they played, and then you for and 1177 00:51:30,320 --> 00:51:33,200 Speaker 2: then they good, but not in week one of his 1178 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:34,200 Speaker 2: whole career he wasn't. 1179 00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:37,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, they force you into playing their style of football 1180 00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:39,360 Speaker 1: game more more so than. 1181 00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:42,719 Speaker 2: They understand complimentary football. They know exactly what they're doing 1182 00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:44,399 Speaker 2: with it, you know, right, they get it. 1183 00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:46,839 Speaker 1: But at the same that's why these games always play 1184 00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:49,080 Speaker 1: out the way they do, right, right, because both of 1185 00:51:49,120 --> 00:51:51,600 Speaker 1: these teams when they play each other, know exactly what 1186 00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:53,600 Speaker 1: they wanted, how they want to play the game is 1187 00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:54,799 Speaker 1: exactly the same way. 1188 00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:58,480 Speaker 2: It's why whenever we host the draft and they draft somebody, 1189 00:51:58,520 --> 00:52:00,520 Speaker 2: it's like steel probably taking him with the next guy. 1190 00:52:00,600 --> 00:52:02,919 Speaker 1: Yeah right, they try to draft the same guy. 1191 00:52:03,520 --> 00:52:05,439 Speaker 2: I always hope that there's gonna be a football life 1192 00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:08,360 Speaker 2: or thirty for thirty with Kevin Colbert and ausie K 1193 00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:10,880 Speaker 2: Newsome sitting there having a cold one, or on a 1194 00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:13,480 Speaker 2: fishing boat or something like, you told this guy for me, 1195 00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:15,080 Speaker 2: You took this guy for me. I knew you were 1196 00:52:15,080 --> 00:52:17,360 Speaker 2: gonna take him, and then, you know, I'd love to 1197 00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:20,560 Speaker 2: see them do that sometimes Harbor and Tom Win do 1198 00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:22,040 Speaker 2: it twenty years from now when they're old man. 1199 00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:26,000 Speaker 1: You know, Matt, we will be back next week to see, 1200 00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:28,160 Speaker 1: well whether we were right or whether we were wrong, 1201 00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:29,799 Speaker 1: or whether we were on the right track with some 1202 00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:33,000 Speaker 1: of this stuff. On Monday, we'll be back to do that. 1203 00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:35,319 Speaker 2: In the meantime times the tape is bad, but the 1204 00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:37,759 Speaker 2: situation isn't for the same, and if they do win, 1205 00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:39,560 Speaker 2: they're gonna they're in a good spot. 1206 00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:41,360 Speaker 1: They're in a good spot heading into their by with 1207 00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:45,040 Speaker 1: some guys coming back, Yeah, most notably I think Deontay 1208 00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:47,919 Speaker 1: Johnson one is back coming out of the bus, which 1209 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:51,040 Speaker 1: is huge.
