47
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:09,080
Speaker 1: let's uh I guess diving into the game. Uh you

48
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: You could hear it on Al's voice. I mean, Al's

49
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 1: Al's been in the bright lights well before I was

50
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:22,959
Speaker 1: even born. Obviously the you know, the famous hockey game. Uh.

51
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: I was born eighty four. So Al Michaels has been

52
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 1: a big deal for a long time, and he clearly

53
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 1: has been the number one NFL guy, even over Buck

54
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 1: and even over Nance for decades now. And I don't

55
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 1: truly understand. I mean, I have some theories why he

56
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 1: did Thursday Night Football. One, it's you get to trailblaze

57
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: a little bit, right, You're the first guy full time streamer,

58
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: so even long after he's gone, the first guy that

59
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 1: ever jumped at it was Al Michaels too. I'm sure

60
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 1: they paid him a lot of money. Three, he has

61
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,839
Speaker 1: his weekends off because even when you know you're doing

62
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: a Sunday night game, he's still probably got travel on Saturday.

63
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 1: What can you do now? He can play golf on Saturday,

64
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 1: he can play golf on Sunday. He's got a little

65
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 1: bit of time to breathe. But these games, especially the

66
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 1: last several weeks, have been awful. And no hate to

67
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 1: anyone that's a Panther fan or a Falcon fan. For

68
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 1: me personally, those aren't the brands that really move the

69
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,039
Speaker 1: needle for me. Like when I see you guys on TV,

70
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 1: if that game was a Sunday, it would be a

71
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,840
Speaker 1: Sunday morning game for us on the West Coast. I'm sorry, Like,

72
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 1: I'm not a big fantasy football guy, so I can't

73
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 1: totally totally relate to like chiming into every single game

74
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 1: because I got a player on that game. But I

75
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 1: do gamble, so so I know what it's like to

76
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,720
Speaker 1: pay attention to games that aren't regional or I'm not

77
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:47,280
Speaker 1: a fan of or whatever that's the division. I'm sorry

78
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 1: that I just disliked the most. And when I say

79
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 1: dislike just it's pretty meaningless. To me, it just doesn't

80
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 1: move me emotionally at all, but watching the game tonight,

81
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:01,719
Speaker 1: it kind of hit me like Dave A. Temper, the

82
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 1: owner of the Panthers, who is I do think that

83
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 1: the Billions, the show Billions on Showtime or I guess

84
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 1: HBO Showtime was after specifically Steve Cohen, the guy that

85
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 1: now owns the Mets, but I've read that parts of

86
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 1: it were also David Tepper, who kind of like an

87
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 1: axl Rod type figure in On Wall Street, obviously one

88
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,919
Speaker 1: of the great traders of all time, and recently with

89
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 1: how much it costs to buy a team, you have

90
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 1: to have so much money, right, one of the stories

91
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,159
Speaker 1: that happened today, like, I'm sorry, I'm not gonna spend

92
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,719
Speaker 1: much time reading when politicians are going after Dan Snyder.

93
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,159
Speaker 1: Just tell me when he sells the team. Now, I

94
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 1: get if I was a Washington Commander fan, I'd be

95
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,840
Speaker 1: interested in that story, but that was a story like,

96
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,280
Speaker 1: I'm not reading an article on this. Just tell me

97
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 1: when they pop him, he goes to jail or he

98
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 1: sells the team, Like I'm done. We've seen a million

99
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 1: stories on this guy, but whenever that team is sold,

100
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 1: someone's gonna buy it for six billion dollars. So the

101
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: market you know of potential buyers are me and you.

102
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,360
Speaker 1: It's it's a small list of people. We already know him.

103
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: It's like bezos, like seven other people. So when these

104
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,919
Speaker 1: guys buy the team at an astronomical value, you know

105
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 1: they are used to winning in life and winning at

106
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 1: their business. Yet David Tepper and even Arthur Blank when

107
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 1: he bought the team twenty plus years ago, I had

108
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,239
Speaker 1: to google and he bought it in two thousand one,

109
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 1: he inherited Michael Vick. So Michael Vick had been the

110
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: number one pick the year before, so we got to

111
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: inherit one of the most spectacular, awesome, fun players like

112
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:36,280
Speaker 1: NFL history in a second year. That's pretty lucky. That's

113
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:41,160
Speaker 1: not normal. Most times you're inheriting a bad franchise, the Browns,

114
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 1: the Panthers, kind of what he's inheriting with the Broncos

115
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 1: now in theory, like he's inheriting Russell Wilson. Will see

116
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: how that plays out. But part of the business when

117
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,599
Speaker 1: you buy these teams, if you're David Tepper, you hire

118
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 1: a guy to be your head coach, and then you

119
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:57,840
Speaker 1: pray to God that he can draft you a quarterback.

120
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 1: But most of these guys great in Wall Street. You

121
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:05,720
Speaker 1: know the Walten's, they owned Walmart, Bezos, dominant businessman. They're

122
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,040
Speaker 1: great at their business. They know how to make money.

123
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 1: Yet when you buy the football team, you really know nothing.

124
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: Like you might be a football fan, but you don't

125
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 1: like no scheme. You don't know really what makes a

126
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 1: great coach. In your mind. You're like, I know what

127
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 1: makes a great leader. I've hired a ton of managers.

128
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 1: I've hired a ton of you know, senior executives. It

129
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 1: is nothing in common with the football coach. So you

130
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 1: interview all these guys with great resumes that have been

131
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 1: winning at various spots, either as a coordinator, as a

132
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 1: former head coach, or as a college head coach, and

133
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 1: you kind of hope to get it right. Like David

134
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 1: Tepper hired Matt Rule, who was extremely successful at Temple

135
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 1: and Baylor. But when you look back, it's like he

136
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 1: had only worked one year in the NFL as an

137
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 1: assistant offensive line coach and then he couldn't find a

138
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 1: quarterback and it blew up in his face because I'm

139
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 1: watching his team tonight, loosely watching his team. That was

140
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 1: a terrible game. But the Panthers have a lot of

141
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 1: good players, but they have no quarterback. P J. Walker

142
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 1: is a fun little player. He's probably like a third

143
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 1: string maybe like a fringe second string guy. And when

144
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 1: you don't have a quarterback, it doesn't matter how much

145
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 1: talent you have, And when you don't have a coach,

146
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 1: you're fucked, like you have no shot. So all these

147
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 1: guys buying all these teams are basically just praying to God,

148
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 1: did they get their coaching interview right? And then that

149
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 1: guy can find a quarterback. And let's face it, there's

150
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 1: a huge element of luck with finding a quarterback just

151
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago. And because the media hype

152
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,199
Speaker 1: and listen, I guess I don't consider myself media, but

153
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 1: I'm part of the hype machine, and I fell victim

154
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 1: to it. Like I liked the quarterback class a lot

155
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 1: two years ago. Love Trevor Lawrence, Love Justin Fields was

156
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 1: fascinated and intrigued by Trey Lance. Wasn't the biggest Zack

157
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 1: Wilson guy, but didn't dispute his talent. And that quarterback

158
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,959
Speaker 1: class looks pretty terrible, you know. Trevor Lawrence has been

159
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 1: very up and down for a guy that was held

160
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 1: to such regard, I mean, I mean he was. He

161
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:06,079
Speaker 1: was the level of prospect of an Andrew luck of

162
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 1: like a Shaquille O'Neal, of a Lebron James, of a

163
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 1: Bryce Harper like no one can argue that anyone listening

164
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 1: that follows this game pretty closely knows he was held

165
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: in the highest of high regards. And it's it hasn't

166
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 1: been terrible of recent memory, but it should have been

167
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 1: a little bit better, a little quicker, just just in

168
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 1: my opinion. And Fields now looks like he's kind of

169
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 1: coming on, but we'll see. I mean, Trey Lances started

170
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 1: four games as a shattered ankle. The Jets win only

171
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 1: in spite of Zack Wilson and Mac Jones. Average of

172
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 1: the day is long. So the quarterback. The whole thing

173
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: with quarterbacks is the unknown. Think about years before that

174
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield, complete bust, uh Sam Donald also a complete bust.

175
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 1: Josh Rosen, he's like a practice squad guy. There are

176
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 1: two quarterbacks in that draft and they turned out to

177
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,200
Speaker 1: be really good. Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen, but no

178
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 1: one knows coming up in this draft. I love Bryce Young,

179
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:03,079
Speaker 1: he's any I'm a big fan of Will Levis's talent,

180
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 1: but who knows. So it's just that C. J. Stroud

181
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 1: and then all the other guys in this class. No,

182
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:12,199
Speaker 1: nobody has any clue. Like most good gms, I can

183
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 1: find a good d tackle, I can find a good safety,

184
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 1: but if you don't find the quarterback, you got no shot.

185
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 1: And now he's looking for a head coach again. So

186
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 1: even when they go on this head coaching search, which

187
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 1: I would imagine they've already done do due diligence, They've

188
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,440
Speaker 1: already contacted agents, they already have a short list. It's

189
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 1: hard to interview people like you can't interview coordinators. Now

190
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 1: you probably could do some back channel interviewing college head coaches.

191
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 1: But he's not gonna He's not gonna hire a college

192
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 1: head coach after he just did, unless it was Jim Harbaugh. Uh.

193
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 1: Maybe he'll wait to see what NFL coaches are fired.

194
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 1: But again, it's gonna be an educated guests, which you

195
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 1: could argue most things in life for educated guess is

196
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 1: the differences when Bezos was dealing with Amazon, when Jet,

197
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 1: when David Tepper was dealing with the stock market when

198
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 1: and uh, the Waltons were dealing with anything inside Walmart.

199
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: They knew what they were doing and they knew how

200
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 1: to turn into a profit. When you own an NFL team,

201
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 1: that the element of luck. It's kind of like golf.

202
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 1: You know, you hit it. Even when you hit a

203
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 1: good shot, it could easily fucking be land under sand.

204
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: It could easily land plugged in the rough. You know,

205
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: just as easily it could bounce and be five ft

206
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 1: from the green. And you watch him right now, and

207
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 1: you know, you just see like, I think the Panthers

208
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 1: have a good future, but they don't get a coach

209
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 1: and they don't get a quarterback. Did Dave ever spent

210
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 1: a lot of money to keep losing? And on the

211
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 1: flip side, I think Arthur Smith is really good. I've

212
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 1: watched their team pretty closely, probably for the last month.

213
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 1: I watched him kick the hell out of the forty Niners.

214
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 1: I watched their game last week against the Chargers. I

215
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:55,080
Speaker 1: thought they thoroughly outplayed him. Uh, I give them credit.

216
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 1: I didn't love the Drake London draft pick. He looks

217
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,559
Speaker 1: pretty damn good. Obviously, Kyle Pitts is really good. They

218
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,680
Speaker 1: also don't have a quarterback. I like Marcus Mariota one time,

219
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 1: the one time I went to Titan's practice, he was

220
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:10,559
Speaker 1: the starting quarterback. The center at Fresno State who's now

221
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 1: coaching at Auburn actually as an assistant coach, was a

222
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 1: g A at at Oregon when Mariota was there, and

223
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,439
Speaker 1: after some press conferences and stuff, I went over and

224
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,079
Speaker 1: bullshited with him. Took like ten minutes. We talked for

225
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 1: a while. Every person I've ever known that has known

226
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 1: Marcus Mariota swears by the guy. His character is a

227
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 1: ten out of ten fantastic human being. He's a pretty

228
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:38,199
Speaker 1: average quarterback, you know. So the Falcons are a good example,

229
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 1: kind of like the Carolina Panthers. They got some really

230
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,200
Speaker 1: good players, and the difference is, like the Panthers don't

231
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 1: have a coach. I think the Falcons coach is pretty good.

232
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 1: If Arthur Smith, the son of the dude that created

233
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:54,199
Speaker 1: started FedEx, is a billionaire, and I know people love

234
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:57,319
Speaker 1: to shoot on like rich kids. If you're a rich

235
00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 1: lazy kid, the last thing in a million years you

236
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 1: would ever want to do as be an NFL football coach,

237
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 1: because like google Arthur Smith's resume, he had to work

238
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 1: his way up from position coach to position coach, finally

239
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,320
Speaker 1: became a coordinator. But he's not considered a guy of

240
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:17,080
Speaker 1: any head coach, right Mike Vrabel inherited him. Mike Varibel

241
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 1: got hired at the job, and Arthur Smith was already

242
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 1: there and he made him the offensive coordinator after uh

243
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 1: La Fleur got the job at Green Bay. So he's

244
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:30,199
Speaker 1: not considered like a Shanahan guy, a Belichick guy, Sean

245
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 1: Payton guy. He's just Arthur Smith. Yet, when I watched

246
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 1: his teams and I know he lost tonight, hell, I

247
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 1: know he lost last week against the Chargers, I go,

248
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: how is he so competitive? You know why? He's really good.

249
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 1: His team's tough and they're fantastic in the run game.

250
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 1: He does not have a quarterback. It might seem like

251
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 1: he does because he has Marcus Mariotta, a famous name.

252
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure Marcus Mariota is like a two million

253
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:57,080
Speaker 1: dollar quarterback. Marcus Mariota is a backup right now, a

254
00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 1: solid middle of the road backup. But he's there full

255
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 1: time starter now. Maybe Desmond Ritter, the guy they drafted

256
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 1: from Cincinnati, can become a starter, and maybe they get

257
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 1: some gem I don't know, uh I you know, watching

258
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 1: with Cincinnati, I'll be honest, I thought he was pretty average.

259
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,360
Speaker 1: It's not like they loved him. They drafted him in

260
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 1: the third round. But if they can't find a quarterback, like,

261
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 1: their ceiling is only so high because that division is

262
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 1: pretty wide fucking open. Tom Brady is, you know, gonna

263
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 1: be fifty seven years old, and let's face it, this

264
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 1: is his last year on Tampa Bay. He's either gonna

265
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 1: retire or leave. The Saints are royally screwed. I mean

266
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 1: they coach is a major question mark, and they don't

267
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: have a quarterback. In Carolina doesn't have a quarterback or

268
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 1: a coach. So the one thing Atlanta has to feel

269
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 1: comfortable about is they like their coach as they should.

270
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:53,080
Speaker 1: High level guy. He has like an ethos, he has

271
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 1: something that he can He has like when you watch

272
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:58,480
Speaker 1: his teams, it's very obvious what you're watching. And a

273
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: lot of young coaches. I say it all the time

274
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,680
Speaker 1: time when you think of young offensive guys, they like

275
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 1: to throw the ball to me. He reminds me of

276
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan. He he would I don't care whose quarterback is,

277
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: he'd want to run it forty times a game, and

278
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 1: he's good at it. He's a fantastic run schemer, and

279
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: the better quarterback you get when that is kind of

280
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 1: your ethos, you have a chance, especially if they can

281
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 1: build up that defense. Now I don't know much about

282
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 1: his GM. Uh. You know they're gonna be drafted probably

283
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 1: in like the top thirteen fourteen. If they hit on

284
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 1: a pick uh, maybe they can be competitive. But I'll

285
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 1: tell you this, I've watched Arthur Smith now probably fourth

286
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 1: full game of the Atlanta Falcons, and that's a lot

287
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 1: for me. I haven't done much watching of the Atlanta

288
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 1: Falcons the last three or four years. Couldn't pay me

289
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 1: to watch Matt Ryan skip balls into people's hands, and

290
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 1: I'm impressed. If I was a Falcon fan, I would

291
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 1: be bullish on Arthur Smith. But we gotta figure out

292
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 1: a way to get a quarterback because Marcus Mariota, like

293
00:15:56,440 --> 00:16:00,920
Speaker 1: I said, fantastic human being average quarter back. And they

294
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 1: know that. It's not like it's not like they think

295
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 1: that he's some future starter for them. The problem, though,

296
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 1: is for all these teams without a quarterback, like, what

297
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 1: do you do? How do you find a guy if

298
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 1: you're not drafting one or two where the Lions, you

299
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 1: know where the Texans are probably gonna be drafting. And

300
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 1: let's face it, like whether these guys are worthy or not,

301
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 1: those top quarterbacks are gonna go there. Jimmy Garoppolo is

302
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 1: a free agent, Like where do you find the guy?

303
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 1: And this is what I get back to when you

304
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 1: buy the team. There's just a huge element of luck.

305
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 1: I mean, look at look at the Cowboys. How they

306
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,360
Speaker 1: get the starting quarterback. They found him in the fourth round.

307
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 1: Look at look at Seattle there whatever six and three

308
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 1: where they find their court is Geno Smith. No one

309
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:42,920
Speaker 1: thought Gino Smith was gonna be that good, not a soul.

310
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 1: You know. How how did the Rams get Matt Stafford? Well,

311
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 1: just randomly the Lions decided to trade them, and they

312
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 1: traded multiple first like that. Those type transactions don't happen

313
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 1: that much. So I don't know. Just you gotta keep

314
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 1: your fingers crossed and hope and pray, because I would

315
00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 1: say this for the Falcons, Like I said I, you

316
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 1: do have a coach that you should feel somewhat confident

317
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 1: in the future if you can just get him a

318
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:08,360

00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 1: I think the culture the worst watch in the NFL.

349
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:57,199
Speaker 1: Cardinals stink they're in entertaining tobaccle to watch the culture

350
00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 1: not and once you can't keep firing assistant coach like

351
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:03,400
Speaker 1: head coach done. And now I think, obviously the story breaks.

352
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 1: They hired Jeff Saturday, and at first I thought it

353
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,199
Speaker 1: was insane, just like every other human being, because the

354
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,880
Speaker 1: news broke on Adam Scheffter's Twitter, and then like thirty

355
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 1: minutes later I'm hacked. I had no access. He follow

356
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,760
Speaker 1: me on Twitter, crypto person has my my accountcil who

357
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,919
Speaker 1: knows if I'll ever get back. But that's neither here

358
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 1: nor there. The reality of the situation is if I'm

359
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:26,199
Speaker 1: sitting in during Jim rsay seat, I've watched his coaching

360
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:31,440
Speaker 1: staff be incredibly awful, Like it's hard to be much

361
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 1: worse than they've been. So what if I'm sitting in

362
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,399
Speaker 1: his seat going, I'm the boss, I signed the checks.

363
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 1: I don't want any of these guys to be the

364
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:42,720
Speaker 1: interim coach. So he hires Jeff Saturday, which, yeah, jaw dropping,

365
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:44,640
Speaker 1: but we've seen a couple of hires the last couple

366
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: of years be kind of crazy. I don't actually care,

367
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 1: and I don't think most people necessarily do. But a

368
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,200
Speaker 1: lot of people, you know, the fake outrage that Jeff.

369
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,399
Speaker 1: They could have named Bill Gates the head coach. They

370
00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,920
Speaker 1: could have named uh, Bobby knights Son the head coach.

371
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 1: They could have named Reggie Wayne the head coach. It

372
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:08,520
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. The team stinks, a putrid team, that the

373
00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:11,160
Speaker 1: whole place is gonna get blown up, probably beside the

374
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 1: general manager. That being said, once you hire him like

375
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pay attention. I'm gonna watch his press conference,

376
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:20,919
Speaker 1: not the one where he's sitting there with the owner,

377
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 1: but the one where he's talking by himself, and he

378
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:26,159
Speaker 1: got pretty defensive. Now, being a head coach in the

379
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 1: NFL is intense, being at the highest level of any

380
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 1: profession and essentially being the CEO is not easy. But

381
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,679
Speaker 1: there's a reason you get defensive. Help. It happens to me,

382
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:40,280
Speaker 1: it happens to you usually because whatever someone's saying to

383
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:44,160
Speaker 1: you has some validity. And one thing that Jeff Saturday

384
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 1: really hung his hat on in this press conferences. He

385
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 1: played with the best in the business, played with Hall

386
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 1: of famers, played on teams fourteen, he was a fourteen

387
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 1: year NFL lineman, playoffs twelve times. All that stuff is factual.

388
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 1: There is a big gap though, between you know, being

389
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:07,920
Speaker 1: a great player and playing with great players than coaching

390
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:12,360
Speaker 1: great players. Now, they're always some similarities and some fundamental

391
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:17,400
Speaker 1: philosophical beliefs in how you play, but coaching and playing

392
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:24,200
Speaker 1: are two completely different crafts. Belichick, Sean Payton, Andy Reid,

393
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,879
Speaker 1: Last time I checked, never played it down in the NFL.

394
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,960
Speaker 1: And you know what, it doesn't matter because playing in

395
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 1: the NFL does not equate to being a good coach

396
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 1: in the NFL, just like not playing in the NFL

397
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,800
Speaker 1: doesn't mean that you can't be a high level coach. Now,

398
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 1: I looked and really thought about it, like, there are

399
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 1: some guys that had long NFL careers and our head coaches.

400
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:52,200
Speaker 1: Mike Vrabel is one right, was a long time NFL starter.

401
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 1: Was never like some all time great player, but very

402
00:21:56,200 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 1: very good starting player on very good teams. But Mike

403
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 1: rabel didn't transition directly to being a coach. He he

404
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 1: was basically an apprentice under Urban Meyer for a long

405
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:11,160
Speaker 1: period of time. First he just went back to help

406
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,639
Speaker 1: out his buddy Luke Fickle at Ohio State. When that

407
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,879
Speaker 1: program got blown up, Urban kept him was there for

408
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,600
Speaker 1: a while. Then while with Billy O'Brien, was a position

409
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:21,879
Speaker 1: coach for a long period of time and was a

410
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 1: coordinated for one year, so saw it from a different angle.

411
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:29,399
Speaker 1: Doug Peterson, who was a long time backup for guys

412
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:34,640
Speaker 1: like Brett Farve, Dan Marino, Donovan McNabb, well, what happened?

413
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,920
Speaker 1: I was there. I think his second year he was

414
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,639
Speaker 1: a quality control guy for Andy Reid worked his way

415
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 1: up a quarterback coach and then became an offensive coordinator,

416
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,640
Speaker 1: so he learned the craft from from a different position.

417
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:51,240
Speaker 1: The reason you have confidence in anything you do is

418
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 1: because of the time you put into doing it right.

419
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 1: Your your confidence is not created overnight. I saw it

420
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:02,880
Speaker 1: was the Marines birthday as I'm recording this Happy birthday

421
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:06,159
Speaker 1: to all the Marine Corps out there, and listen, I

422
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 1: have a ton of respect, guys. I went to high

423
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:11,639
Speaker 1: school with Drew Coker, Brad Bitler, Michael Cleary went to

424
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,120
Speaker 1: the Marines. We we graduated high school and oh three

425
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 1: they went like oh four range and that was what

426
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 1: IRAQ was going on. So it wasn't just sitting at

427
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 1: the base in uh Fort Bragg. I mean, it was

428
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 1: the real deal ton of respect, the ultimate amount of

429
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,919
Speaker 1: respect for everyone in the Marine Corps out there, and

430
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,719
Speaker 1: especially people that I knew personally they were in it.

431
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:36,560
Speaker 1: But I saw this this uh the Marine Corps instagram

432
00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 1: basically this happy birthday kind of montage of highlights, and

433
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 1: I I remember watching this famous clip of uh I

434
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 1: think he was a general. I don't know his exact position,

435
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:53,040
Speaker 1: but he's in this like minute instagram that the Marines

436
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 1: put out and he was asked, like, what keeps you

437
00:23:56,080 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 1: awaken night and his response was, you know, pretty pretty intense.

438
00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 1: He said, nothing. I keep other people awake at night.

439
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 1: They struggle to sleep at night knowing I'm here. I mean,

440
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:11,440
Speaker 1: you could watch and go. That's pretty arrogant thing to say.

441
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,400
Speaker 1: And then you realize he believes that, just like all

442
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,920
Speaker 1: the Marines are kind of you know, can be cocky

443
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,879
Speaker 1: because of the work they put in, like Tom Brady

444
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:24,680
Speaker 1: and Peyton Manning get their confidence from fucking grinding ninety

445
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:28,720
Speaker 1: hour weeks on the field, off the field in preparation

446
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 1: for the game. That's their craft. That's what they do.

447
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 1: The reason Belichick and Andy Reid and Sean mcvagh and

448
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan the moment they walk to the position on

449
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 1: game day are confident that they can win is because

450
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 1: of they've learned it for years as an assistant coach

451
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,359
Speaker 1: or then as a head coach, and then the time

452
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 1: they have put in honing in on that craft in

453
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:53,600
Speaker 1: season and in the off season. You can only get

454
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,840
Speaker 1: good at something by putting in time. Now, Jeff saturday

455
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 1: Infaris did not claim to be good at this. He

456
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 1: basically said, I have no clue, but as I said

457
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,640
Speaker 1: earlier in the week, it actually got cut out because

458
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 1: we ended up going a long time with Colin. Is

459
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:11,680
Speaker 1: it is a much I think I said this to Colin.

460
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:15,280
Speaker 1: It's a much easier transition to go from scratch to

461
00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 1: be a GM than it is from go to scratch

462
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 1: to be a head coach, because I can lean on

463
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:23,360
Speaker 1: people as a GM, my college coordinator, my pro director,

464
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:28,360
Speaker 1: my head coach. It's virtually impossible. It is impossible. Now,

465
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 1: that doesn't mean that there are a lot of players

466
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 1: that if they wanted to coach, they would be good

467
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 1: at it, and a law probably a large percentage of

468
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:39,800
Speaker 1: them will never go into coaching at the NFL level.

469
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,119
Speaker 1: They'll messing around with high school with their kids and

470
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,200
Speaker 1: you know, lower levels and maybe even college because they're

471
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,680
Speaker 1: so rich and the time it takes. Like, I don't

472
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:51,119
Speaker 1: blame anyone worth two hundred plus million dollars, it's not

473
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:53,080
Speaker 1: worth it to be an NFL head coach. I don't

474
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 1: need the money, and too, I don't need the stress.

475
00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:58,440
Speaker 1: Now I've said if Philip Rivers, if Peyton Manning, if

476
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 1: Drew Brees, they wanted to he coaches and just get

477
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,159
Speaker 1: into being a quarterback coach and then a coordinator. You

478
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 1: don't think they could do it. They could, but it

479
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,439
Speaker 1: would take time. No different than the reason Peyton Manning

480
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 1: was a really good player is because he honed in

481
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,160
Speaker 1: on his craft since he was like seven years old,

482
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 1: through high school through college, early on his NFL career

483
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 1: and he developed you know, the ten thousand hours. And

484
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,560
Speaker 1: when you see Jeff Saturday, you know, I don't think

485
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:29,120
Speaker 1: it's gonna work right, Not not that I don't think

486
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 1: the bell, Bill Belichick or Bill Barcelves in his prime

487
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:33,880
Speaker 1: if you just put him on this Colts team would

488
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:37,200
Speaker 1: have a chance. They're playing Sam Ellinger. But I also

489
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,880
Speaker 1: saw like when he got defensive, it's because he knows

490
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 1: like this, this is kind of crazy, because it is crazy.

491
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,199
Speaker 1: It's very difficult to be an NFL head coach the

492
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,359
Speaker 1: time it takes the ability to deal with all these

493
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:52,720
Speaker 1: different people, Like he can say, well, I've been in

494
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:54,920
Speaker 1: a locker room with all these people. They're not all

495
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:58,479
Speaker 1: depending on you. So if you don't like a defensive tackle,

496
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,119
Speaker 1: or you don't like a corner, or you don't like

497
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 1: the kicker, it doesn't matter when you're the starting center.

498
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:06,399
Speaker 1: Like ultimately you gotta get along with the guys on

499
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,400
Speaker 1: your unit. As the head coach, you gotta get not

500
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:12,440
Speaker 1: necessarily like everyone, but you gotta be able to motivate them.

501
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 1: You gotta know how they tick. You deal with everyone.

502
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 1: Why because everyone's staring at you. Why is it hard

503
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,239
Speaker 1: to be a parent, Whether you have one kid or

504
00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 1: four kids, they all look at you when it's time

505
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:25,160
Speaker 1: to eat, when it's time to go to school, when

506
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:27,959
Speaker 1: it's time to do everything. You're the leader of the house.

507
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:31,159
Speaker 1: It's no different as the head coach, even as the CEO.

508
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 1: Like you're seeing all these people get blown out right

509
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:38,479
Speaker 1: now in these tech jobs, Like ultimately Zuckerberg probably personally

510
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:40,399
Speaker 1: didn't talk to a lot of the people we fired.

511
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,240
Speaker 1: But when I'm the head coach of an NFL team,

512
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: a college team, a high school team, I'm interacting talking

513
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:50,960
Speaker 1: obviously more with some guys than others, but with every player,

514
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 1: with every assistant coach, and the only way, Like I

515
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,199
Speaker 1: get natural respect as the leader because I'm the boss,

516
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:02,160
Speaker 1: but you also earn more respect over time. Like when

517
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 1: you watch Mike Vrabel, is Mike Vrabel's success have anything

518
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 1: to do with his playing career. No one on that

519
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,160
Speaker 1: team actually gives a ship. You know why guys play

520
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:13,879
Speaker 1: hard for him, whether it's Derrick Henry, whether it's Ben Jones,

521
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 1: whether it's the dudes on defense, because they respect him

522
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,440
Speaker 1: as a coach. They respect when he tells them things

523
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 1: about how to get ready for the game, about how

524
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:26,439
Speaker 1: to live their life, about the scheme. It's working. It

525
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 1: is turning into success, and that's taking time. And I

526
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:32,639
Speaker 1: would imagine if he was sitting right here, he's be like,

527
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,480
Speaker 1: I learned a lot from Urban Meyer. I learned a

528
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 1: lot from my position group at Ohio State. I then

529
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 1: learned a lot with my position group with the Houston Texans.

530
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:46,239
Speaker 1: It takes time, and let's face it, like this, the

531
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:49,440
Speaker 1: only reason Saturday is the coaches because the owner, Like,

532
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:52,920
Speaker 1: not in a million years would Chris Ballard have chosen

533
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 1: this guy to be as head coach, because you wouldn't

534
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 1: choose an interim coach from outside your building. Now listen,

535
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:01,720
Speaker 1: I've it over and over. Steve Wilkes is one of

536
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:04,640
Speaker 1: the worst head coaches I've ever seen. Was a complete embarrassment,

537
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 1: was a joke. But like, why did they choose him?

538
00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 1: Like I said, I think the owner liked him? One

539
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,040
Speaker 1: and two. He was already there, so he knows the

540
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 1: players and he knows the roster. It's just an easy

541
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:19,720
Speaker 1: transition in a tough time. Chris Ballard, whether he likes

542
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 1: these guys or not, probably would have chosen August Bradley,

543
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 1: you know, a John Fox, just for an easy transition

544
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 1: and then figure it out after the season. But this

545
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 1: also speaks to he's playing the Raiders this week. And

546
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:38,960
Speaker 1: Josh McDaniels is probably one of the more famous assistant

547
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 1: coaches over the last several decades, and his head coaching

548
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 1: career is well documented. Now I'm not gonna beat a

549
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 1: dead horse. Is a fucking train wreck, absolute disaster. Apologize

550
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:51,360
Speaker 1: the kids for swearing so much. My mom thinks I

551
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 1: got kicked off Twitter. Actually didn't, I got locked out, scammed. Uh,

552
00:29:56,320 --> 00:30:00,720
Speaker 1: it's stolen for swearing, but that's not true. But Josh McDaniels,

553
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:03,840
Speaker 1: under no circumstances gonna lose this game. You can't lose

554
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 1: to a head coach who has never coached a game

555
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 1: in college or the pros who came in in early November.

556
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 1: You cannot lose to a quarterback who's never not only

557
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 1: never won a game, never thrown an NFL touchdown. You

558
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,680
Speaker 1: have to win this game, like just period, point blank,

559
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 1: end of story. You cannot lose to this version of

560
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts. Now, am I confident they win? No?

561
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 1: I'm not. I just saw Darren Waller went on injury reserve,

562
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 1: hunter Renfro went on injury reserve, and just let's face it,

563
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 1: the team is pretty lifeless. I would be. I can't imagine,

564
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 1: in a weird way, you think Jeff Saturday is nervous,

565
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 1: I would imagine Josh McDaniels is more nervous. His team's atrocious.

566
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 1: They can't win a game. They've been getting their ass

567
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,760
Speaker 1: kicked by the Saints. Two weeks ago, they blow another

568
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,640
Speaker 1: seventeen point lead to the Jags, and now you're playing

569
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,280
Speaker 1: this guy. I've said over and over I I did

570
00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:01,080
Speaker 1: not watch the Colts recently. Wouldn't do it, couldn't do it,

571
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 1: can't do it. Quote my guy, Mike Singletary. Can't do it.

572
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 1: They were too boring, it was too shitty of a product.

573
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 1: There the equivalent of like once you eat a bad

574
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 1: meal at a place, if you've only gone one time,

575
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 1: you're probably not going back. I'd seen enough of the

576
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:20,400
Speaker 1: Colts I wasn't going back, but now I'm paying attention

577
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,360
Speaker 1: just like you. If you're a fan of the Giants,

578
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:27,640
Speaker 1: if you're a fan of the Cardinals, Seattle Saints, whoever,

579
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,720
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter who you're a fan of. If you're

580
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 1: not a fan of the Colts, you're paying attention to

581
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:36,600
Speaker 1: this game. How could you not? What the hell is

582
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 1: Jeff Saturday gonna do? We all are and listen, I

583
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 1: don't think he's necessarily gonna be a one and done coach,

584
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 1: but you're If you lose this game, and you're two

585
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 1: and seven and just lost to Jeff Saturday and Sam

586
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 1: Ellinger and Parks Fraser, you might be time to start

587
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 1: packing your bags and speaking about packing your bags, like

588
00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 1: I listen, I've said over and over my personality. I

589
00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 1: can't operate out of spite and vengeance. I don't do

590
00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:09,240
Speaker 1: well and anger. Uh. It wastes my energy. I don't

591
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 1: I'm not productive that way. Some people thrive with that mindset,

592
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,040
Speaker 1: and listen, you have to figure out what works for

593
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:19,360
Speaker 1: you and then take advantage of that. For me, it

594
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,920
Speaker 1: has to be more optimistic, it has to be more positive.

595
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:25,880
Speaker 1: That's when I'm the most productive. Clearly, some players and

596
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 1: some coaches operate well kind of out of spite, out

597
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 1: of vengeance, out of vengeance. Belichick is a great example.

598
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 1: Right the moment you start talking ship, it's when he

599
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 1: operates the best, the moment he has a specific angle

600
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,320
Speaker 1: to take you down. It's why does he beat the

601
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 1: Jets all the time, because, deep down, for whatever reason,

602
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:48,480
Speaker 1: he hates the Jets, truly hates. Now, I'm not saying

603
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:50,720
Speaker 1: that I like everybody, and there are some people that

604
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:53,800
Speaker 1: I don't like. And if I got the opportunity and

605
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 1: a direct one on one situation, I would hope to

606
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 1: win and get the advantage, and I would take more

607
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 1: joel a out of beating some people, just like I take.

608
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 1: I don't take joy out of other people's failures. But

609
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:07,480
Speaker 1: when there are certain people that fail, if you don't

610
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:10,080
Speaker 1: like them, you know, I'm not losing sleep over it.

611
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:14,040
Speaker 1: And when McCarthy got fired, and I'm as guilty as

612
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 1: anybody probably outside like die hard Packers fans that truly

613
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 1: wanted him gone for a long period time, I would

614
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 1: have been one of the first to say Rogers is right,

615
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:25,280
Speaker 1: total meat head had to get him away. Now I'm

616
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:27,720
Speaker 1: not disputing no matter what's going on with the Cowboys

617
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,640
Speaker 1: these last two years that it was time for a divorce,

618
00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 1: it had run its course. But the way everyone talked

619
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 1: about him, the way everyone shipped on him, and then

620
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 1: the way the Packers went on to kick ass and

621
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 1: take names. When the floor came in, Rogers got a

622
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,200
Speaker 1: swag back, won a couple of m vps. It was like,

623
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:48,360
Speaker 1: kind of like Brady Belichick. Clearly it was Rogers. And

624
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,960
Speaker 1: I still believe that if I had to take one

625
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 1: guy over the last fifteen years, Rogers or or McCarthy,

626
00:33:56,040 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 1: we'd all choose Rogers, every single person, probably including McCarthy's family.

627
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:05,360
Speaker 1: But it's not going well for the Packers and they

628
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 1: are really shitty. And it was one of the predictions

629
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,480
Speaker 1: that everyone was making picking Minnesota. I'm like, I don't

630
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:14,000
Speaker 1: see it. They got no dbs. The Packers are gonna

631
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,720
Speaker 1: be just as good. What are we talking about. Clearly,

632
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:20,680
Speaker 1: at three and six in the Minnesota Vikings are are

633
00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:23,759
Speaker 1: currently seven and one. I mean they're a win and

634
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 1: a loss away from this this division being over, like done,

635
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:31,399
Speaker 1: put a nail in the coffin and think of who

636
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:34,879
Speaker 1: can kind of do it is Mike McCarthy like Mike

637
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 1: McCarthy isn't just having success since he fired Mike Nolan

638
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago. He's kicking ass and taking

639
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:42,799
Speaker 1: names now. The playoff loss last year was bad, he

640
00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 1: was a favorite at home, got his ass kicked by

641
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:48,719
Speaker 1: the forty niners. But bounce back this season. Loses his

642
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,839
Speaker 1: quarterback Week one and then is basically six and one

643
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:55,200
Speaker 1: the rest of this season. Like in the last two years,

644
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy twelve and five last year six to he's

645
00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 1: eighteen and seven. Like Mike McCarthy is having a lot

646
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:04,719
Speaker 1: of success. Now he's gonna be judged because he's a

647
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 1: Cowboys head coach and a former Super Bowl winning coach?

648
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:11,359
Speaker 1: How can you do in the playoffs? But like, think

649
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 1: about this, and I talked about it was stuck you

650
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:16,200
Speaker 1: a little bit later when I first saw the line, Like,

651
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 1: I didn't pay that much attention to the schedule beside

652
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,239
Speaker 1: a couple of big games earlier in the week. When

653
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:24,759
Speaker 1: I saw Packers plus five, I'm like, oh, green Bay

654
00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:27,640
Speaker 1: at the Dallas Cowboys. Green Bay still gett in some respect. No,

655
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:30,839
Speaker 1: green Bay is at home at Lambeau. So if you're

656
00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy, you come back to Lambeau where enough time

657
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 1: has passed, enough success has happened, he'll get a standing.

658
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 1: Oh but you can kind of end the Floor and

659
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:43,880
Speaker 1: but more specifically, Rogers kind of season in early to

660
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 1: mid November, and your team would be seven and two

661
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,280
Speaker 1: with a chance, like all of the needs to happen.

662
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 1: It probably inevitable the Eagles are gonna lose one of

663
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,640
Speaker 1: these random games. And if you can just hold serve,

664
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:58,279
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you're just one game back. They're

665
00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:01,319
Speaker 1: eight and one, you're seven in two. You know they're

666
00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:03,759
Speaker 1: nine and one, you're eight in two. You just gotta

667
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 1: hold serve. But if he's your second running back, like

668
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 1: you're in pretty good shape. So I'm fascinated by this

669
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:14,319
Speaker 1: Spike vengeance game. Even though McCarthy will play it like

670
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:17,680
Speaker 1: he feels like he's a happy, go lucky, jolly big guy,

671
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:21,080
Speaker 1: right but deep down he's gotta want this big time

672
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:24,520
Speaker 1: and it's advantage him. So there's pressure on McCarthy to

673
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:27,040
Speaker 1: win this game. There's pressure on Rogers and the Floor

674
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:31,960
Speaker 1: just to save their season. Um this one. I'm for

675
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,360
Speaker 1: for a game with the Packers, who were a tough watch.

676
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:36,880
Speaker 1: Right now, I'm pretty fascinated by this game. And then

677
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 1: this is a couple of quick things NFL in Germany. Uh.

678
00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:42,480
Speaker 1: Who would have thought at the beginning of the season

679
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:44,200
Speaker 1: that would have been like the Tampa would have been

680
00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:47,480
Speaker 1: really good. This would have been a terrible Seattle team classic,

681
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:51,239
Speaker 1: one of those throwaway games now like can Seattle knock

682
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 1: tamp out? Is Seattle really this good? And they have

683
00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:57,839
Speaker 1: been so far, and Kenneth Walker has been probably one

684
00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:00,040
Speaker 1: of the if not the best rookie offensive play a

685
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:04,919
Speaker 1: definitely of late. Uh. Brady somewhat saves that season last

686
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:08,000
Speaker 1: week with that little drive going to Germany. Good little

687
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:11,200
Speaker 1: stat It's kind of crazy when you close your eyes,

688
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:13,400
Speaker 1: it doesn't make that much sense, but I guess you know,

689
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,800
Speaker 1: Germany's higher up there. The difference of flying from Tampa

690
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:19,839
Speaker 1: to Germany and flying from Seattle to Germany actually isn't

691
00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:22,719
Speaker 1: that much farther you would think, you know, it would

692
00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:26,239
Speaker 1: be a dramatic disadvantage for Seattle, which I'm pretty sure

693
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 1: flew earlier in the week, But the flight I forget

694
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 1: the exact mileage, but it's not near the gap that

695
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:36,000
Speaker 1: you think that it would be kind of like Seattle

696
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:38,439
Speaker 1: in this game. But you know, you just you never

697
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:41,239
Speaker 1: want to ride off old Thomas Brady. A lot of

698
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:43,359
Speaker 1: m v P talk, and now that Josh Allen, who

699
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:45,799
Speaker 1: knows with his injury. I just saw on Thursday that

700
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 1: he was absent from practice at least a portion that

701
00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:51,640
Speaker 1: the media can see if he's in and out of

702
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 1: the lineup for the from moving forward or shell of himself,

703
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,080
Speaker 1: like he's just not gonna win the MVP, and a

704
00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:59,280
Speaker 1: lot of people are trying to force two into that spot.

705
00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:03,200
Speaker 1: Here here's if this season continues the way it's been

706
00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:05,680
Speaker 1: going to me, you know who my m VP would be.

707
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:09,879
Speaker 1: Jalen's right there too, But as of right now, Tyree Hill,

708
00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,759
Speaker 1: Like to me, Tyree Hill. Besides, like Micah Parsons and

709
00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:15,799
Speaker 1: they're they're just not gonna give it to a defensive player.

710
00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:18,000
Speaker 1: He'll win Defensive Player of the Year. Tyree Hill would

711
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 1: be my m VP. That guy is that guy is

712
00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,719
Speaker 1: the most important player in the Miami Dolphins. Who if

713
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:26,560
Speaker 1: they go you know, eleven and six or twelve and five. Hell,

714
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:28,959
Speaker 1: if they win that division, they've already beaten the Bills once,

715
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:31,880
Speaker 1: I'd have no problem voting that guy at the m

716
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:33,799
Speaker 1: v P. Plus I've said over and over. I give

717
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 1: him a lot of respect. I thought he would go

718
00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:38,520
Speaker 1: to Miami kind of like cash out, you know, get

719
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:42,279
Speaker 1: that huge third contract, last big contract, and just kind

720
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:46,520
Speaker 1: of chill. He has been a dominant force, uncoverable. He's

721
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:50,480
Speaker 1: unstoppable right now. And I give him his competitive character

722
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:52,880
Speaker 1: a lot of credit because I think a lot of

723
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:56,439
Speaker 1: people in his shoes might have done a little mail

724
00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:59,880
Speaker 1: in job and he did not. Uh, and then the

725
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:04,440
Speaker 1: injured game. Think about this last year they combined for

726
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:07,440
Speaker 1: twenty three wins. Ironically they played each other in the

727
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:10,919
Speaker 1: playoffs because the way they both lost Week eight team.

728
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,000
Speaker 1: So even if you remove Week eighteen, which you can't

729
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:18,799
Speaker 1: technically do because the eighteenth or the seventeenth game Week

730
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:20,759
Speaker 1: eight team because there's a bye week, so you know,

731
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,879
Speaker 1: the seventeenth game is actually a out of conference game.

732
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:26,800
Speaker 1: And both the Rams Week eight team played the Niners

733
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:29,440
Speaker 1: and Cardinals played Seattle, so they would have played that game,

734
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 1: but they were both One was twelve and four and

735
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:35,200
Speaker 1: the other was uh eleven and five coming into that game.

736
00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:38,960
Speaker 1: So all that the the the Cardinals had to do

737
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,719
Speaker 1: was especially the Rams lost, was win the game, and

738
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 1: they didn't. They should have won the division, but they

739
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:45,920
Speaker 1: combined for twenty three wins, and obviously the Rams kick

740
00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:49,440
Speaker 1: their ass in that Monday night football Divisional game, which

741
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:51,160
Speaker 1: I'm a fan of. I like a good Monday night

742
00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:56,040
Speaker 1: playoff game. Now Stafford is in the concussion protocol, and

743
00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,560
Speaker 1: clearly he's a shell of himself. This year he has

744
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:00,719
Speaker 1: been I'll give him someone of the then him fitted out.

745
00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 1: Even though he's always throwing a lot of interceptions. He

746
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:05,440
Speaker 1: doesn't look right part of it. Their online is even worse.

747
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,640
Speaker 1: Beside Cooper Cup. They can't run the ball, and the

748
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:11,160
Speaker 1: Cardinals have been a disaster. I was flipping around HBO

749
00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:14,799
Speaker 1: Max the other day. Girlfriends out of town, uh in

750
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:17,319
Speaker 1: Mexico for this wedding. I couldn't go. You know, some

751
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,520
Speaker 1: of us gotta work. You know, some of us can't

752
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:23,600
Speaker 1: just fall weddings. Man. People now granted this wedding and

753
00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:27,759
Speaker 1: her friend you just I'm a big spring, summer wedding guy,

754
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:29,360
Speaker 1: but you gotta do what you gotta do. I'm not

755
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:32,160
Speaker 1: here to tell Plus COVID pushed everything back. It is

756
00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 1: what it is. But I'm here working, no no big deal,

757
00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:38,600
Speaker 1: just taking care of the dog. And I was flipping

758
00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:41,080
Speaker 1: around HBO Max, because you know, I used to watch

759
00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:44,600
Speaker 1: the show Industry fantastic show, very interesting, very entertaining, and

760
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 1: I stumble upon, Oh, the Cardinals mid season hard knocks.

761
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 1: I refused to press play, like I'm not I'm sorry.

762
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:54,600
Speaker 1: Anything cool happens, I'll find it on the internet. Which

763
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:56,359
Speaker 1: those are things I used to find on Twitter. Now

764
00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:58,720
Speaker 1: that I'm scammed out, maybe I won't find on the internet.

765
00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:01,320
Speaker 1: Who knows, but I I'm not watching that. I just

766
00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:05,160
Speaker 1: I just refuse. But the reality is someone who loses

767
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 1: this game is the Cards lose their three and seven

768
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:12,640
Speaker 1: and Buddha Baker's injured. Kyler is dealing with a hamstring,

769
00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:16,360
Speaker 1: and hamstring like most quarterbacks, hamstring is not a normal injury,

770
00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:18,880
Speaker 1: but when you're an athlete like him and very dependent

771
00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:22,160
Speaker 1: on running, like that's Michael Vick got a hamstring injury.

772
00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:24,200
Speaker 1: I remember, Like that's part of the deal. Here is

773
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:28,280
Speaker 1: Lamar got one too. It's just not a normal quarterback injury.

774
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:31,000
Speaker 1: More concussion, because sometimes you get crushed, as Stafford is

775
00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:35,040
Speaker 1: did get one. I mean, it's not inconceivable that we

776
00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 1: get Colton McCoy verse Wafford. But it's looking like Kyler

777
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:42,839
Speaker 1: will play and then more than likely, I guess they'll

778
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:44,439
Speaker 1: just be up in the air, depending if you can find,

779
00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:47,239
Speaker 1: you know, fix the protocol. But for the Cardinals to

780
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:49,000
Speaker 1: be three and seven, and there's a lot of talk

781
00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 1: like it's Kingsbury gonna lose his job, you know, who knows,

782
00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:55,040
Speaker 1: Like I don't necessarily expect it, but it won't necessarily

783
00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:57,800
Speaker 1: just because they own a bunch of money. But who's

784
00:41:57,800 --> 00:41:59,839
Speaker 1: gonna want to coach Kyler say the same thing about

785
00:41:59,880 --> 00:42:02,000
Speaker 1: the Holts, like, who's gonna want to coach the Colts?

786
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:05,200
Speaker 1: They fired their coach, they hired Jeff Saturday. So you

787
00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:09,040
Speaker 1: work for the Colts, you just know the Jim Mercy

788
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:12,040
Speaker 1: is always talking to those Peyton manning teams. They're just

789
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:13,920
Speaker 1: kind of going behind your back talking to people. Now,

790
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:15,680
Speaker 1: maybe that's just part of the deal in the NFL.

791
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:17,880
Speaker 1: The owner has his people that he's gonna talk to you.

792
00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:20,960
Speaker 1: But it feels a little weird. I guess if I

793
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 1: had to bet right now, Kingsbury gets another year but

794
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:26,239
Speaker 1: and is forced to fire some coaches. But who knows,

795
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:30,480
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm crazy. The Rams like there's their season from help.

796
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,440
Speaker 1: The big picture of thing is gonna be let's say

797
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:35,239
Speaker 1: they lose this game, you'd be three and six. You

798
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:38,080
Speaker 1: don't have any draft picks, so you're not really into

799
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 1: bottoming out because Detroit has your pick. Like you're trying

800
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:44,799
Speaker 1: to win. You're not tanking. There's no reason to tank,

801
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,799
Speaker 1: you don't have access to anything. Um, this game is

802
00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:53,560
Speaker 1: just fascinating to me because someone is who the loser

803
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:56,800
Speaker 1: of this game is gonna feel like they're the Detroit Lions,

804
00:42:57,320 --> 00:43:03,640
Speaker 1: and I'm excited to see who it is. Back at

805
00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:06,920
Speaker 1: it again. I think we have some clarity with my

806
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:10,759
Speaker 1: main man, Stucky Action Network. Follow him on Twitter and

807
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:14,759
Speaker 1: app that I'm scammed locked out of and find him

808
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:18,480
Speaker 1: on the Action Network. He does multiple podcast Thursday Action

809
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:22,879
Speaker 1: Network podcasts as well as big Bets on Campus Stucky. Uh,

810
00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:25,440
Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals I think officially are dead to you,

811
00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:28,919
Speaker 1: and uh, we can't bet on Frank Reich to lose

812
00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:32,280
Speaker 1: his money anymore. So I think we got some clarity

813
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:35,760
Speaker 1: from the gambling guts. Yeah, it's I I tested fate

814
00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:39,719
Speaker 1: with Usually it's like after week nine with Cliff Kingsbury

815
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:43,080
Speaker 1: is an automatic fade and I was like, well it's

816
00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:48,000
Speaker 1: week nine, Um, let's go with it. And uh, it

817
00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:51,520
Speaker 1: was just they're arguing with each other everything. It was

818
00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:53,520
Speaker 1: just a disaster to watch. They couldn't even get a

819
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:55,800
Speaker 1: snap off. The Seattles running the same basic place. You know,

820
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 1: I spent ours two air yards per throw and through

821
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:05,080
Speaker 1: for two seven yards. Just embarrassing preparation. Um yeah, it

822
00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 1: was rough. And then you know the Colts think about this.

823
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:14,520
Speaker 1: They that they knew the place, they knew new England's

824
00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:17,080
Speaker 1: plays they were calling. They'll check him out and said,

825
00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:19,480
Speaker 1: check lit knew our plays. He's named the new play caller.

826
00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:24,680
Speaker 1: They their defense completely shut down the Patriots and granted

827
00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:29,640
Speaker 1: Johnathan Territi play and they still got absolutely blown out.

828
00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:34,040
Speaker 1: They averaged one point nine yards per play, the fewest

829
00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:40,000
Speaker 1: for Colts team since the seventies. They had your sacked

830
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:44,879
Speaker 1: nine times, zero third down conversions and uh, if you're

831
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:47,359
Speaker 1: into advance, that's negative thirty five e p A one

832
00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:50,520
Speaker 1: of the nine worst offensive games in the NFL over

833
00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:55,160
Speaker 1: the past twenty five years. It was so shitty that uh,

834
00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:57,480
Speaker 1: I had to watch Jeff Saturday's first press conferences, the

835
00:44:57,520 --> 00:44:59,799
Speaker 1: head coach. He said that gm rcay called him during

836
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:03,560
Speaker 1: the game and basically offered him the job. During the game,

837
00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:07,040
Speaker 1: so hard to blame. We can talk Shot all we

838
00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:09,239
Speaker 1: want about her, say hard to blame him. If I

839
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:11,520
Speaker 1: owned the team and I watched that, I fucking someone

840
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:14,160
Speaker 1: would have to go. And we've already fired people like that.

841
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:17,600
Speaker 1: It was time, you know, not not saying what's crazy

842
00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:21,719
Speaker 1: to me is now Granted, the Colts tackles, you know,

843
00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:23,759
Speaker 1: it's not like they're playing with Trent Williams. But their

844
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:26,359
Speaker 1: offensive line over the last several years has been one

845
00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:29,680
Speaker 1: of the more complete units. Is just abysmal. I mean

846
00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:32,240
Speaker 1: you watch I don't watch them play anymore, like I

847
00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:36,920
Speaker 1: refuse like I'm not watching that football. I don't. I

848
00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:39,719
Speaker 1: don't need to talk about him except like ship like

849
00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:43,839
Speaker 1: Jeff Saturday. But the actual football is completely me It's

850
00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:47,759
Speaker 1: terrible to watch and start their offensive line. They could

851
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:50,839
Speaker 1: have fucking Michael Vickens prime, he'd be running for his life. Yeah,

852
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:53,239
Speaker 1: they have so much money invested in that line too,

853
00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:58,280
Speaker 1: which hampers other parts of their roster. If it's gonna

854
00:45:58,320 --> 00:45:59,880
Speaker 1: be like this because it was supposed to be one

855
00:45:59,920 --> 00:46:01,600
Speaker 1: of the best offensive lines in the NFL and now

856
00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:04,439
Speaker 1: it's one of the worst. Yeah, it's brutal. I'm interested

857
00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:06,719
Speaker 1: to see what happens with Saturday because you know some

858
00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:08,680
Speaker 1: of his quotes. He's just like, you know, I'm not

859
00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:12,359
Speaker 1: gonna be aggressive. I just take points when we can, uh,

860
00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:16,600
Speaker 1: just get get yards they might he's an offensive lineman.

861
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:19,719
Speaker 1: My favorite clip of him is I don't know when

862
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:23,439
Speaker 1: him and Manning were playing together and Manning goes over

863
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:26,239
Speaker 1: and just says it, starts yelling at him. He points

864
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:27,600
Speaker 1: at him. It's one of the few times you'll see

865
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:30,279
Speaker 1: Manning on this island with a live clip with him

866
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:34,239
Speaker 1: yelling and he Manning says, just happen, just half and

867
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,160
Speaker 1: pass block? Just half the pass block? Uh, and then

868
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:40,319
Speaker 1: Saturday's yelling back at him. Run the damn ball, Run

869
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:42,400
Speaker 1: the dad. Why can't we run the damn balls? Like?

870
00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:45,759
Speaker 1: That's my memory of Saturday. If Terrible looks like he's back,

871
00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:50,160
Speaker 1: it might just be forty dives on Sunday, So I'm

872
00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:53,319
Speaker 1: curious to see how they place out. Do do you

873
00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:56,719
Speaker 1: think before we dive into a couple of games, like

874
00:46:57,719 --> 00:47:01,720
Speaker 1: Josh McDaniels, can you imagine if you lose to Jeff

875
00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:05,160
Speaker 1: Saturday and Sam Ellinger, Like it's it's already been a

876
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:07,800
Speaker 1: I mean, it's one of the bigger it's the biggest

877
00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:10,719
Speaker 1: disaster in that division, and Denver was considered probably the

878
00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:13,280
Speaker 1: biggest disaster in the league. And the Raiders are worse.

879
00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:16,520
Speaker 1: I mean they're sucking two and six. You lose to

880
00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:19,560
Speaker 1: Jeff Saturday, a guy that's never coached in college or

881
00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:22,920
Speaker 1: the pros, and a quarterback who did I see his

882
00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:25,439
Speaker 1: Stady's never throwing a touchdown in the NFL. Let alone

883
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:28,560
Speaker 1: obviously won a game. I mean, you can, you cannot.

884
00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:30,799
Speaker 1: You can lose to Trevor Lawrence and Doug Peterson, right,

885
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,359
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence was the next lock and Doug Peterson won

886
00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:36,160
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl. Like that sucks. It looks like a

887
00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:39,040
Speaker 1: bad loss, but like those guys are real NFL people.

888
00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:43,120
Speaker 1: Jeff Saturday, Sam Ellinger, I know. I mean, are we

889
00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:45,719
Speaker 1: talking about a one and done coach? Yeah, I mean

890
00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:48,880
Speaker 1: that we all like the fake Twitter accounts with the

891
00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:52,640
Speaker 1: check marks, maybe a little foreshadowing the fake chefter this

892
00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:57,880
Speaker 1: week tweet out Josh McDaniels has been fired. Um, maybe

893
00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:02,799
Speaker 1: that was a little foreshadowing to uh, what could potentially happen.

894
00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:08,799
Speaker 1: It's it's a mess for the Raiders as a what

895
00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:12,759
Speaker 1: what happened to the line? Jeff Saturday, Frank Reich, are

896
00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:18,000
Speaker 1: are they worth? Obviously Frank's probably worth more points, right, Yeah,

897
00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:21,000
Speaker 1: I think the market still has some respect for Reich

898
00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:27,600
Speaker 1: and has some questions for about Saturday. But it's I mean,

899
00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:33,000
Speaker 1: like the line was and it went up a little bit.

900
00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:35,120
Speaker 1: But it's the Raiders and the Raiders are you know,

901
00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:38,400
Speaker 1: It's not like everyone is rushing to bet the Raiders. Um,

902
00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:40,680
Speaker 1: that's not going to be a heavily beat game. I

903
00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:44,040
Speaker 1: can't figure out the Raiders. And technically you should be

904
00:48:44,080 --> 00:48:46,800
Speaker 1: buying low on the Colts here and you get Jonathan

905
00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:49,799
Speaker 1: Taylor back. But I just that is a game I

906
00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:54,399
Speaker 1: want to stay far far away from. Okay, let's let's

907
00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:57,200
Speaker 1: dive into a game. The Jags get a pretty nice

908
00:48:57,200 --> 00:49:00,600
Speaker 1: win against the Raiders playing Kansas City that if you

909
00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:04,480
Speaker 1: siphon out that Niner game has not really been explosive

910
00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:07,480
Speaker 1: point team like they have been in years past. So

911
00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:09,400
Speaker 1: when you give a team, you know, nine and a

912
00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:12,400
Speaker 1: half points to me, I mean it's the Chiefs have

913
00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:14,600
Speaker 1: not just been some consistent like thirty seven points on

914
00:49:14,640 --> 00:49:16,000
Speaker 1: the board. I mean a lot of times they are

915
00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:19,120
Speaker 1: in the low twenties. So the nine and a half

916
00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:24,880
Speaker 1: would be a little tasty, especially coming off you know, Tennessee.

917
00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:27,640
Speaker 1: It's weird right there, a playoff team, but we don't

918
00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:29,239
Speaker 1: look at them like a juggernaut. But there are just

919
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:32,600
Speaker 1: a consistent team that wins ten plus games. And that

920
00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:35,560
Speaker 1: was an impressive win when the Chiefs were not playing well,

921
00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:38,640
Speaker 1: given that Patrick Mahomes just refused to let him lose,

922
00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:41,200
Speaker 1: like a little bit of a come down here against

923
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:43,799
Speaker 1: a team that's ultimately going to be drafting in the

924
00:49:43,800 --> 00:49:46,759
Speaker 1: top ten. So I guess the plus nine and a half,

925
00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:50,239
Speaker 1: uh makes a little sense. Yeah, I took the plus

926
00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:53,000
Speaker 1: nine a half. I mean, uh, scoring is down a

927
00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:55,680
Speaker 1: little bit across the board in the NFL underdogs as

928
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:58,479
Speaker 1: a result or just crushing it. Marginal victory is down.

929
00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:01,080
Speaker 1: Take underdogs between three and a half and ten or

930
00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:04,120
Speaker 1: hitting at sixty four and a half percent this year,

931
00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:06,719
Speaker 1: which is insane. But yeah, this line is too high.

932
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:09,719
Speaker 1: I didn't bet this yet. I'm going to bet it.

933
00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:11,960
Speaker 1: I will bet nine and a half, but why it's

934
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:13,480
Speaker 1: a dead number right now. I'm gonna wait to see

935
00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:15,719
Speaker 1: if it gets to ten. If it doesn't all be ten.

936
00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:17,279
Speaker 1: If not, I still like it at nine and a half.

937
00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:19,440
Speaker 1: So I'm just reading it's more likely to get to

938
00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:23,279
Speaker 1: ten than nine. Yeah, I think that it might. You're

939
00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:29,759
Speaker 1: probably gonna have heavy public action on Kansas City. Let's

940
00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:33,399
Speaker 1: say it's and then any time it hits ten, it'll

941
00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:38,160
Speaker 1: get snatched up real quick by h sharp money. So yeah,

942
00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:39,960
Speaker 1: you know, and going from nine and a half to

943
00:50:40,040 --> 00:50:42,080
Speaker 1: nine eight and a half is meaningless. So I think

944
00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:44,040
Speaker 1: it might. It might touch ten, but it will not

945
00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:46,440
Speaker 1: last long. So I'm gonna see if I can grab it.

946
00:50:46,480 --> 00:50:48,560
Speaker 1: But you know, nine is a dead number in the NFL,

947
00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:51,959
Speaker 1: but I think it's too many points. Regardless, the Jaguars

948
00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:57,000
Speaker 1: have look their top ten of pressure rate, and Mahomes

949
00:50:57,040 --> 00:50:59,359
Speaker 1: has struggled under pressure this year, and the offensive line

950
00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:01,600
Speaker 1: is just not in well, it's just like kind of

951
00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:05,200
Speaker 1: like the Colts. He was under fire all night against Tennessee.

952
00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:07,160
Speaker 1: And if you look at the Chiefs home games this year,

953
00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:12,080
Speaker 1: they won by three over the Chargers, easily could have lost.

954
00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:15,200
Speaker 1: They won by three over the Titans, who didn't complete

955
00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:17,719
Speaker 1: a pass to a receiver with a quarterback who went

956
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:22,720
Speaker 1: five of sixteen um and ran thirty five fewer plays.

957
00:51:22,920 --> 00:51:25,120
Speaker 1: They won by one at home over the Raiders, and

958
00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:28,400
Speaker 1: again they easily could have lost and they lost a Buffalo.

959
00:51:29,080 --> 00:51:31,719
Speaker 1: That's been their home results this year. Mahomes, if you're

960
00:51:31,719 --> 00:51:34,719
Speaker 1: gonna fade him, you want to do it when he's

961
00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:38,200
Speaker 1: a favorite of seven plus points. He's twelve and seventeen

962
00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:41,200
Speaker 1: against the spread. Chiefs have the Chargers on deck, which

963
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:44,560
Speaker 1: will essentially lock up the division. You know, coming off

964
00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:47,600
Speaker 1: a hard, fun game, they probably just you know, don't

965
00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:49,719
Speaker 1: be the show a lot. Let's get a lead and

966
00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:53,600
Speaker 1: then back door will be open. They'll sit on it.

967
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:56,600
Speaker 1: But I also think that Jacksonville can compete here, and

968
00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:58,840
Speaker 1: they have all year there one. They finally won a

969
00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:02,160
Speaker 1: close game last last week there one in six now,

970
00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:05,640
Speaker 1: in one possession games, they have not lost by more

971
00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:09,759
Speaker 1: than one possession. They're feisty. I think eat C N.

972
00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:12,560
Speaker 1: Lawrence can move the ball in this Chief's defense. They

973
00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:15,840
Speaker 1: can get some pressure. Mahomes will make his plays. Jacksonalls

974
00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:19,239
Speaker 1: knowing the cover Kelsey just a little bit too high

975
00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:22,160
Speaker 1: the line here, I'll side with the dog. Well, it's

976
00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:24,480
Speaker 1: crazy is coming into the season. It's like, well, all

977
00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:26,719
Speaker 1: four teams can win the a f C West. You know,

978
00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:30,000
Speaker 1: it's fucking wide open. And now I mean the Chargers

979
00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:32,359
Speaker 1: lose the Niners, the Broncos and Raiders are any good.

980
00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:34,160
Speaker 1: The Chiefs win a couple of straight games, like you said,

981
00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:35,799
Speaker 1: they got the Chargers next, all of a sudden, they

982
00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:38,520
Speaker 1: got hats and T shirts by the time they're eating turkey,

983
00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:41,480
Speaker 1: you know, unofficially, right. I mean that just shows you,

984
00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:44,680
Speaker 1: man this you cannot trust those other three teams that

985
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:48,439
Speaker 1: you just can't. And the Chiefs just slow steady this year,

986
00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:50,920
Speaker 1: like you said, they have not that they've actually what

987
00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:53,600
Speaker 1: the eye test, they've struggled at home. I mean, they

988
00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:57,080
Speaker 1: have just not been the same team and they're gonna

989
00:52:57,160 --> 00:53:00,520
Speaker 1: cruise what eleven twelve wins and win the division potentially

990
00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:03,120
Speaker 1: by three games. Yeah, yeah, And it just shows you

991
00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:06,160
Speaker 1: it's funny to look back at narratives about the NFL

992
00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:07,920
Speaker 1: and how predictable it can be from a year to

993
00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:09,840
Speaker 1: year basis. I mean, the a f what we thought

994
00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:13,160
Speaker 1: that division was gonna be is somehow the a f

995
00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:16,879
Speaker 1: CFCs the a f c s too. Yeah, but it's

996
00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:19,120
Speaker 1: like who would have thought, Like the Patriots are in

997
00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:22,320
Speaker 1: the last place and everyone is competing in that division

998
00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:26,759
Speaker 1: with the Bills, and like it's you gotta love the NFL. Well,

999
00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:28,320
Speaker 1: if I would have told you the Patriots are in

1000
00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:31,120
Speaker 1: last place on November ten, Like, oh, they're you know,

1001
00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:34,440
Speaker 1: they're two and seven, They're god awful. It's actually like

1002
00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:37,719
Speaker 1: they're five and four. They feel like they're probably gonna

1003
00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:42,439
Speaker 1: be a nine or ten win team, you know, honestly, Yeah,

1004
00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:48,120
Speaker 1: big pictures dive into the Browns at the Dolphins, like,

1005
00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:50,160
Speaker 1: clearly the Dolphins aren't going away, And a lot of

1006
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:52,400
Speaker 1: people talk about to winning the MVP if I was

1007
00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:54,680
Speaker 1: betting on the m v P, like, I'm sorry, Tyreek

1008
00:53:54,719 --> 00:53:57,880
Speaker 1: kills the MVP of that team. Uh, but the Jets,

1009
00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:00,560
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. Obviously, They're defense is good,

1010
00:54:00,640 --> 00:54:02,560
Speaker 1: they've been running the ball, but I don't think you

1011
00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:05,719
Speaker 1: can just sustain winning it with their quarterback who was

1012
00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:07,640
Speaker 1: just a mess. Now you could argue Mac Jones ain't

1013
00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:10,600
Speaker 1: that much better. I just trust Bill more than I

1014
00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:13,520
Speaker 1: trust saw A. Plus, he plays them again and he

1015
00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:15,120
Speaker 1: always kicks their ass, and he gets him at home

1016
00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:17,520
Speaker 1: because he already beat him on on the road. So

1017
00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:20,279
Speaker 1: I mean, if you had to, if you had to pick,

1018
00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:23,959
Speaker 1: if you went Buffalo, assuming Josh is you know, gonna

1019
00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:27,239
Speaker 1: be able to keep playing Buffalo Miami, then would you

1020
00:54:27,239 --> 00:54:30,080
Speaker 1: go Patriots? Chets. Yeah, I mean that is that a

1021
00:54:30,120 --> 00:54:32,920
Speaker 1: three playoff team division potentially? Yeah, it could be. It

1022
00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:36,040
Speaker 1: depends on I mean, if you figure, depends what the

1023
00:54:36,120 --> 00:54:39,399
Speaker 1: Chargers do, if they can get healthier, which they've got

1024
00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:41,600
Speaker 1: a big couple of games coming up, but they could

1025
00:54:41,640 --> 00:54:43,919
Speaker 1: fall behind quick and then all of a sudden you're saying,

1026
00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:47,120
Speaker 1: it's just the Chiefs from that division, and the Bengals too.

1027
00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:49,200
Speaker 1: If Jamaar chases out a while, yeah, and then it's

1028
00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:50,759
Speaker 1: just like it's just gonna be that looks like just

1029
00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:53,560
Speaker 1: the Titans. So there's some spots opening up. It could

1030
00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:59,840
Speaker 1: easily be a three you know, crazy scenari of four team. Uh,

1031
00:55:00,280 --> 00:55:02,919
Speaker 1: but I think three is is pretty realistic. And yeah,

1032
00:55:02,960 --> 00:55:05,200
Speaker 1: the Jets impressed me last week with their defense because

1033
00:55:05,239 --> 00:55:08,399
Speaker 1: they were playing so many backup quarterbacks and getting so

1034
00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:10,160
Speaker 1: lucky at the end of games. But they were playing,

1035
00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:13,160
Speaker 1: you know, one of the best offenses in the NFL. Now,

1036
00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:16,960
Speaker 1: granted it's a home division game, weird things happening in

1037
00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:21,839
Speaker 1: those Zach Wilson didn't throw his picks, which he normally will,

1038
00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:25,319
Speaker 1: you only fumbled once. He's ultimately going to hold them back.

1039
00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:27,960
Speaker 1: But the defense showed me a lot they can get

1040
00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:32,719
Speaker 1: pressure without blitzing. You know, Sauce Garner is just so

1041
00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:35,319
Speaker 1: good for a rookie, and their special teams are also

1042
00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:38,319
Speaker 1: playing a lot better, so they'll be feisty. But you

1043
00:55:38,320 --> 00:55:40,080
Speaker 1: know they'll start losing some of these close games and

1044
00:55:40,120 --> 00:55:43,000
Speaker 1: Wilson will cost them. Uh yeah, I trust the Patriots

1045
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:45,239
Speaker 1: just just a tab more. You could argue the big

1046
00:55:45,280 --> 00:55:48,360
Speaker 1: difference between the Jets, Dolphins, and Patriots is just simply

1047
00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:51,520
Speaker 1: two is a lot better than the obviously Zack Wilson

1048
00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:54,560
Speaker 1: and Mac Jones. I don't and listen, I think to uh,

1049
00:55:54,719 --> 00:55:56,640
Speaker 1: the hype he gets on the internet, it's probably a

1050
00:55:56,640 --> 00:55:59,960
Speaker 1: little stronger than what I watch, but he is much

1051
00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:03,160
Speaker 1: more functional and playing with those guys, I mean seventeen

1052
00:56:03,200 --> 00:56:08,200
Speaker 1: and ten or fucking monsters. Those guys are asking It's

1053
00:56:08,239 --> 00:56:11,880
Speaker 1: why I think you like Cleveland this week. I I

1054
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:14,080
Speaker 1: just do not trust Jacoby and I know that they

1055
00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:16,279
Speaker 1: you know, they look pretty good. What wasn't two weeks

1056
00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:19,120
Speaker 1: ago against the Bengals on that Monday night game? And

1057
00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:22,719
Speaker 1: I think Monday night games for teams that it's weird.

1058
00:56:22,760 --> 00:56:25,000
Speaker 1: The Browns actually aren't a city team. They're just playing

1059
00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:27,200
Speaker 1: with their backup quarterback who's not gonna be the starting

1060
00:56:27,239 --> 00:56:29,920
Speaker 1: quarterback for much longer. But just even bad teams get

1061
00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:32,600
Speaker 1: up for those Monday night games. It's a really big deal,

1062
00:56:32,680 --> 00:56:34,960
Speaker 1: especially divisional games. We've seen it in years past when

1063
00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:37,719
Speaker 1: the Giants suck. Remember they almost beat the Bucks a

1064
00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:40,160
Speaker 1: couple of years ago. Like, just bad teams Monday Night,

1065
00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:42,040
Speaker 1: it's it's a it's a big deal if you're a

1066
00:56:42,120 --> 00:56:45,839
Speaker 1: human being. Uh So I would like Miami, I guess

1067
00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:48,080
Speaker 1: this weekend. But it's weird, Like I don't even love

1068
00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:50,960
Speaker 1: Miami that much. I just kind of love their two

1069
00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:54,200
Speaker 1: receivers because their defense isn't that great. But I just,

1070
00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:56,520
Speaker 1: you know, Jacoby can just be so hit or miss.

1071
00:56:56,560 --> 00:56:59,120
Speaker 1: I guess you just run the ball consistently. But is

1072
00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:01,200
Speaker 1: that something? Is the fan Ski just you know, I

1073
00:57:01,239 --> 00:57:03,160
Speaker 1: know he takes a lot of ship in Cleveland Land

1074
00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:07,399
Speaker 1: about being passed happy sometimes. Yeah, I like Cleveland. Here

1075
00:57:07,400 --> 00:57:09,279
Speaker 1: I took I took them plus four, like to plus three.

1076
00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:12,000
Speaker 1: Now they've actually been really good on like there their

1077
00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:15,120
Speaker 1: fifth and EPA per drop back, their offensive top ten

1078
00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:17,280
Speaker 1: e p A and the on the league this year.

1079
00:57:17,360 --> 00:57:20,480
Speaker 1: They they've just been really unlucky and they're actually getting

1080
00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:23,120
Speaker 1: healthier to they're coming off a by here. They should

1081
00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:25,760
Speaker 1: get Denzel Award back. Their offensive line should be at

1082
00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:28,480
Speaker 1: full strength. And if you look at what they've done

1083
00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:32,640
Speaker 1: this year right there, three they have three wins. The

1084
00:57:32,680 --> 00:57:36,800
Speaker 1: Dolphins have six wins. But the Browns here, they're losses.

1085
00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:38,280
Speaker 1: The Shoar they lost by one of the Jets game

1086
00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:40,480
Speaker 1: they should have won, lost by three to the Falcons game,

1087
00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:43,440
Speaker 1: they should have won two to the Chargers game they

1088
00:57:43,440 --> 00:57:46,439
Speaker 1: should have won three to the Ravens. Held the Ravens

1089
00:57:46,480 --> 00:57:48,600
Speaker 1: of two yards, by the way, that's another key here.

1090
00:57:48,840 --> 00:57:52,880
Speaker 1: Brown's defense over their previous two games has figured something out.

1091
00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:56,960
Speaker 1: Garrett's obviously dominating, but they were missing assignments. But they

1092
00:57:57,000 --> 00:58:00,880
Speaker 1: look so much better. The communication was better, they simplified

1093
00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:03,360
Speaker 1: the scheme against the Ravens and then the Bengals too

1094
00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:07,280
Speaker 1: good offenses before the bye, so and their defense was

1095
00:58:07,320 --> 00:58:10,400
Speaker 1: a disaster early in the season. So yeah, I think

1096
00:58:10,400 --> 00:58:13,440
Speaker 1: their defense is trending up. But that's one in four

1097
00:58:14,120 --> 00:58:18,640
Speaker 1: in games decided by six points or less. Do you

1098
00:58:18,640 --> 00:58:23,720
Speaker 1: know what the Dolphins are? They are five and oh

1099
00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:26,760
Speaker 1: they beat the Ravens by four and a miraculous comeback

1100
00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:29,680
Speaker 1: when the Bills by two, they got out game by two.

1101
00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:33,400
Speaker 1: They beat the Steelers by six at home, and then

1102
00:58:33,440 --> 00:58:35,880
Speaker 1: in the last two weeks they beat the Lions and

1103
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:40,200
Speaker 1: Bears by four and three. So why well, their offense

1104
00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:44,200
Speaker 1: was humming, but their defense is really bad right now.

1105
00:58:44,240 --> 00:58:46,080
Speaker 1: They also have the worst special teams in the league

1106
00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:49,040
Speaker 1: if you look at some advanced metrics. But their defense

1107
00:58:49,080 --> 00:58:50,760
Speaker 1: is bad right now. And the reason is they don't

1108
00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:54,440
Speaker 1: get pressure and their secondaries decimated, so they can't do anything.

1109
00:58:54,440 --> 00:58:57,560
Speaker 1: They can't they can't let's, they can't cover. They need

1110
00:58:57,560 --> 00:58:59,840
Speaker 1: to get Jones back. They have a bye coming up.

1111
00:59:00,280 --> 00:59:02,200
Speaker 1: You know, Brandon Jones, I gotta get back Byron Jones,

1112
00:59:02,280 --> 00:59:05,040
Speaker 1: I gotta get back. Davian Howard has been playing hurt.

1113
00:59:05,160 --> 00:59:08,840
Speaker 1: That other backup corners are hurt. They can't stop anybody,

1114
00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:11,880
Speaker 1: and they are just finding ways to win late with

1115
00:59:11,920 --> 00:59:17,439
Speaker 1: that offense. By two, three, four not gonna happen forever there.

1116
00:59:17,480 --> 00:59:19,320
Speaker 1: That's what's gonna hold him back. Their defense has to

1117
00:59:19,320 --> 00:59:21,480
Speaker 1: get healthier to just they don't have to be great

1118
00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:25,320
Speaker 1: on defense just to get a few stops. Uh So, yeah,

1119
00:59:25,360 --> 00:59:27,720
Speaker 1: I think the Browns, off of a buyer defense trending

1120
00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:29,840
Speaker 1: up offense should be able to move the ball in

1121
00:59:29,920 --> 00:59:33,360
Speaker 1: this decimated Miami team. I'll gladly take over three year

1122
00:59:33,400 --> 00:59:36,120
Speaker 1: with Cleveland. Yeah, I guess when I and when I

1123
00:59:36,160 --> 00:59:39,040
Speaker 1: said past happy, I just meant more because obviously Chubb's

1124
00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:41,840
Speaker 1: having an incredible season. He's just called past plays that

1125
00:59:41,920 --> 00:59:44,240
Speaker 1: have led to like red zone picks for Jacobe that

1126
00:59:44,880 --> 00:59:47,400
Speaker 1: I didn't quite realize. I mean, when you watch him,

1127
00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:50,200
Speaker 1: my takeaway is like, I know Derrick Henry's come on

1128
00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:52,000
Speaker 1: this last three or four weeks, but Chubb's the best

1129
00:59:52,080 --> 00:59:54,320
Speaker 1: running back in the league. I mean, he's on pace

1130
00:59:54,440 --> 00:59:59,160
Speaker 1: for potentially like two thousand yards and he's fucking incredible.

1131
00:59:59,720 --> 01:00:02,320
Speaker 1: And what's the way to slow down and really explosive

1132
01:00:02,360 --> 01:00:06,400
Speaker 1: offense Kyle Shanahan style. Just pound the ball, slow the

1133
01:00:06,440 --> 01:00:09,480
Speaker 1: game down, and don't give as many shots to the

1134
01:00:09,520 --> 01:00:12,440
Speaker 1: other team, Right, Yeah, it should be control the ball here,

1135
01:00:12,560 --> 01:00:15,920
Speaker 1: keep their office on the sides and were set can

1136
01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:18,640
Speaker 1: make all the throws when he's under who just turns

1137
01:00:18,680 --> 01:00:21,680
Speaker 1: the ball over when he's under pressures when it's problematic

1138
01:00:21,720 --> 01:00:24,840
Speaker 1: but the offense aren't getting pressure. The Browns have one

1139
01:00:24,880 --> 01:00:27,040
Speaker 1: of the best offensive lines in the NFL. Should be

1140
01:00:27,040 --> 01:00:30,680
Speaker 1: at full strength this week and Miami is gonna be

1141
01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:32,640
Speaker 1: worried about the run, like he's gonna make some easy

1142
01:00:32,680 --> 01:00:36,960
Speaker 1: plaction throws here against the secondary that is decimated. So yeah,

1143
01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:40,560
Speaker 1: I think this will be a close game, but I'll

1144
01:00:40,600 --> 01:00:43,320
Speaker 1: gladly take over a field goal here. Crazy thing is

1145
01:00:43,360 --> 01:00:46,320
Speaker 1: looking at some of these offensive stats, if they just

1146
01:00:46,360 --> 01:00:49,400
Speaker 1: had a healthy Deshaun Watson the whole season, it would

1147
01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:52,120
Speaker 1: be hard to not say this team is a playoff team, right, Yeah,

1148
01:00:52,120 --> 01:00:54,000
Speaker 1: And that's that's what's said if you're a Browns fan,

1149
01:00:54,080 --> 01:00:56,240
Speaker 1: if you know, if lots of comes back. Now we'll

1150
01:00:56,240 --> 01:00:57,400
Speaker 1: talk about this later in the year, but I'm a

1151
01:00:57,400 --> 01:01:00,400
Speaker 1: little concerned if like Watson has a played in seven's, like,

1152
01:01:00,560 --> 01:01:03,000
Speaker 1: you don't come back and be like you saw him

1153
01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:05,240
Speaker 1: in the preseason. He looked there's because we russ like,

1154
01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:08,560
Speaker 1: that's why you have a preseason. But if it's hey,

1155
01:01:08,560 --> 01:01:10,600
Speaker 1: it took him a couple of days, would really hurt

1156
01:01:10,640 --> 01:01:13,560
Speaker 1: the Browns. Is all of these losses one and four

1157
01:01:13,840 --> 01:01:17,320
Speaker 1: in these games decided by four points or less if

1158
01:01:17,320 --> 01:01:20,480
Speaker 1: they were the opposite right and one of the three

1159
01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:24,040
Speaker 1: to put themselves in position to get to the playoffs.

1160
01:01:24,280 --> 01:01:27,560
Speaker 1: When Watson comes back, and then by the time you

1161
01:01:27,560 --> 01:01:29,000
Speaker 1: get to the plaoffs, you do as a wild card.

1162
01:01:29,040 --> 01:01:31,959
Speaker 1: If you have Watson acclimated into the offense, they would

1163
01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:34,320
Speaker 1: have been scary. But they lost all his coin flips.

1164
01:01:34,360 --> 01:01:38,480
Speaker 1: So it's a huge updilk climb. Now, I hadn't been

1165
01:01:38,480 --> 01:01:41,240
Speaker 1: paying attention to this game just because the Packers in

1166
01:01:41,280 --> 01:01:44,240
Speaker 1: a weird way, they are relevant because they're the Packers

1167
01:01:44,240 --> 01:01:47,120
Speaker 1: and they got Rogers, but their team is not. And

1168
01:01:47,280 --> 01:01:50,480
Speaker 1: when I saw the line that you like the Packers

1169
01:01:50,480 --> 01:01:54,680
Speaker 1: plus five, I'm like, damn, you know they're they're you know,

1170
01:01:55,440 --> 01:02:00,000
Speaker 1: posting the Cowboys, and then you realize or excuse me,

1171
01:02:00,120 --> 01:02:02,440
Speaker 1: I mean they're they're on the road. And then you

1172
01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:06,000
Speaker 1: realize once I clicked the game that no, that they're

1173
01:02:06,560 --> 01:02:09,040
Speaker 1: they're at home. And this would have been a line.

1174
01:02:09,200 --> 01:02:11,200
Speaker 1: I mean, we've talked to a lot about look aheadlines.

1175
01:02:11,240 --> 01:02:13,320
Speaker 1: I would imagine at the beginning of the season would

1176
01:02:13,360 --> 01:02:16,919
Speaker 1: be like a what a nine points swing the other way?

1177
01:02:16,960 --> 01:02:20,200
Speaker 1: So it shows you how low the Packers. I mean,

1178
01:02:20,240 --> 01:02:24,160
Speaker 1: it's pretty embarrassing, like just from a gambling standpoint, reflective

1179
01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:26,520
Speaker 1: of the team that is very unbiased, Like that is

1180
01:02:26,560 --> 01:02:30,560
Speaker 1: an embarrassing line. I mean that that to me reflects

1181
01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:34,320
Speaker 1: like your team is in fucking shambles, and then watching

1182
01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:36,880
Speaker 1: that game last week, every time you look dudes limping

1183
01:02:36,880 --> 01:02:39,360
Speaker 1: off the field, dudes in a boot, a dude's hurt.

1184
01:02:39,960 --> 01:02:42,240
Speaker 1: So it's one thing they just haven't played well, and

1185
01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:44,280
Speaker 1: then they just lost a lot of dudes. I mean,

1186
01:02:44,320 --> 01:02:46,280
Speaker 1: one of the best players on defense is out for

1187
01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:49,280
Speaker 1: the season now. And the other thing is when does

1188
01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:52,479
Speaker 1: Rogers ever throw picks like that? Like every everyone gets

1189
01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:55,600
Speaker 1: fooled on like an out round right, a corner jumps it.

1190
01:02:55,600 --> 01:02:58,560
Speaker 1: It's happened to Brady Peyton, Manning, Brett far But the

1191
01:02:58,640 --> 01:03:01,560
Speaker 1: picks over the middle where the corner runs underneath, like

1192
01:03:01,680 --> 01:03:05,080
Speaker 1: that's that's a shitty quarterback interception, especially in the in

1193
01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:07,920
Speaker 1: the red zone. My take on on Rodgers is like

1194
01:03:08,520 --> 01:03:11,240
Speaker 1: it'd be human nature. You know, when you get to

1195
01:03:11,360 --> 01:03:14,000
Speaker 1: be great at anything, you don't lose your confidence right away.

1196
01:03:14,040 --> 01:03:16,280
Speaker 1: But after a while, if you start looking around, you've

1197
01:03:16,320 --> 01:03:20,440
Speaker 1: tried everything, nothing's working. Maybe he's lost his confidence a

1198
01:03:20,480 --> 01:03:22,920
Speaker 1: little bit, which would be I mean, kind of normal

1199
01:03:22,960 --> 01:03:26,760
Speaker 1: for any human being when you're not having success over

1200
01:03:26,840 --> 01:03:30,640
Speaker 1: and over and over again. And if he's lost his confidence,

1201
01:03:30,720 --> 01:03:34,200
Speaker 1: even if it's from down to eighty. They are really fucked,

1202
01:03:34,200 --> 01:03:37,800
Speaker 1: and I would I'd be very leery gambling on them

1203
01:03:37,800 --> 01:03:40,720
Speaker 1: at all. Yeah, I mean, I I hold my nose.

1204
01:03:40,760 --> 01:03:43,600
Speaker 1: Maybe I'll jakes myself, but this is my The Packers

1205
01:03:43,640 --> 01:03:45,880
Speaker 1: have treated me very well. I'm eight no on betting

1206
01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:48,840
Speaker 1: Packers games this year. Just seems to have a good

1207
01:03:48,880 --> 01:03:50,880
Speaker 1: feel on them. The only time I bet them is

1208
01:03:50,920 --> 01:03:55,280
Speaker 1: against the Bills when they got that back door. But

1209
01:03:54,240 --> 01:03:59,040
Speaker 1: they did cover. If you dig into their stats like

1210
01:03:59,080 --> 01:04:01,760
Speaker 1: they're they're a lead get like. So let's take football

1211
01:04:01,760 --> 01:04:04,120
Speaker 1: outsiders as a measure d d o A to adjust

1212
01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:07,400
Speaker 1: for opponent. People think that the Packers are horrendous and

1213
01:04:07,440 --> 01:04:09,880
Speaker 1: the Vikings are decent. If you look at this, adjust

1214
01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:12,280
Speaker 1: for opponent doesn't account for injury, so it doesn't account

1215
01:04:12,280 --> 01:04:14,840
Speaker 1: for the fact that the Vikings have played some backup quarterbacks.

1216
01:04:15,360 --> 01:04:23,760
Speaker 1: The Packers on offense are league average. Offensive Vikings are six.

1217
01:04:25,000 --> 01:04:31,040
Speaker 1: Packers defense eighteen, Vikings defense nineteen. So what's happened with

1218
01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:34,040
Speaker 1: the Packers is I mean they're twelfth and net drive

1219
01:04:34,120 --> 01:04:39,240
Speaker 1: success rate eleven in net yards per play their second

1220
01:04:39,280 --> 01:04:42,520
Speaker 1: and rush success rate you know, tenth and success rate

1221
01:04:42,560 --> 01:04:46,160
Speaker 1: on offense, they actually can move the ball officially mainly

1222
01:04:46,200 --> 01:04:49,320
Speaker 1: through the They're very good running the ball, which I

1223
01:04:49,320 --> 01:04:53,240
Speaker 1: think they'll lean on here. Score. Yeah, they have been

1224
01:04:53,280 --> 01:04:56,920
Speaker 1: so unlucky in the red zone with turnovers and fourth downs.

1225
01:04:56,960 --> 01:05:00,560
Speaker 1: They are twenty percent. They've lost from an ep A perspective,

1226
01:05:00,640 --> 01:05:03,920
Speaker 1: thirty points on fourth down conversions there are three for

1227
01:05:04,080 --> 01:05:07,840
Speaker 1: fifteen and they've been huge four downs, just massive swings.

1228
01:05:08,520 --> 01:05:11,840
Speaker 1: And there's also obviously they don't have a lot of explosiveness,

1229
01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:14,680
Speaker 1: but they're able to move the ball and they're just

1230
01:05:14,680 --> 01:05:19,439
Speaker 1: getting unlucky on turnovers, red zone things that are there's

1231
01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:21,800
Speaker 1: a lot of variants in you would think that there's

1232
01:05:21,840 --> 01:05:24,680
Speaker 1: some correction, some regression coming. So they're not as bad

1233
01:05:24,720 --> 01:05:27,560
Speaker 1: as they look. They're not great. They're just to me,

1234
01:05:28,160 --> 01:05:32,080
Speaker 1: a league average team that's getting unlucky, and also, you know,

1235
01:05:32,160 --> 01:05:34,600
Speaker 1: dealing with some growing pains. The offensive lines had injuries,

1236
01:05:34,600 --> 01:05:37,200
Speaker 1: now they have injuries on defense. But this is a

1237
01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:39,600
Speaker 1: must win for them. Rigs has never been an underdog

1238
01:05:39,720 --> 01:05:42,880
Speaker 1: more than three points at home, and I think they'll

1239
01:05:42,880 --> 01:05:45,120
Speaker 1: be able to run the ball. I think you'll get

1240
01:05:45,120 --> 01:05:47,720
Speaker 1: a spirited effort, and I think this is just buying

1241
01:05:48,080 --> 01:05:50,040
Speaker 1: the stock at a low point, just like that against

1242
01:05:50,040 --> 01:05:51,919
Speaker 1: the Bills, and if you think about it, that line

1243
01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:55,520
Speaker 1: closed around ten at Buffalo. Buffalo was also off of

1244
01:05:55,680 --> 01:05:58,400
Speaker 1: by one of the best home field advantages in the

1245
01:05:58,520 --> 01:06:02,640
Speaker 1: NFL in i'me time too. And the Packers are playing

1246
01:06:02,640 --> 01:06:05,880
Speaker 1: in their fourth stadium in four weeks. Just got looked

1247
01:06:05,920 --> 01:06:09,320
Speaker 1: awful against Washington and they were catching ten there on

1248
01:06:09,360 --> 01:06:12,880
Speaker 1: the road. Okay, let's swing the home field back the

1249
01:06:12,920 --> 01:06:15,200
Speaker 1: other way, and they covered that game, by the way.

1250
01:06:15,320 --> 01:06:17,480
Speaker 1: Let's swing the home field back the other way. And

1251
01:06:17,480 --> 01:06:21,720
Speaker 1: we're going to Green Bay and Dallas now is laying

1252
01:06:21,880 --> 01:06:25,680
Speaker 1: five on the road in Lambeau. You you account for

1253
01:06:25,680 --> 01:06:28,000
Speaker 1: the home field. We're basically saying the Bills at full

1254
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:31,520
Speaker 1: strength and the Cowboys are the same. Don't buy. I

1255
01:06:31,520 --> 01:06:34,520
Speaker 1: think this line should be three. You know, I think

1256
01:06:34,520 --> 01:06:38,439
Speaker 1: the Cowboys should be favored. But um, I think you're

1257
01:06:38,960 --> 01:06:41,240
Speaker 1: catching the Packers. That's what you really want to do

1258
01:06:41,720 --> 01:06:43,560
Speaker 1: when you're betting the NFL by low So I think

1259
01:06:43,560 --> 01:06:46,480
Speaker 1: you're catching the Packers at the low point. There could

1260
01:06:46,520 --> 01:06:49,280
Speaker 1: be some regression coming. They've been the unluckiest team in

1261
01:06:49,320 --> 01:06:52,360
Speaker 1: the NFL by far. This is just a league average team.

1262
01:06:52,360 --> 01:06:54,200
Speaker 1: That's what they're gonna be all year. You hope they

1263
01:06:54,240 --> 01:06:56,600
Speaker 1: get some breaks, but there's too much value this number

1264
01:06:56,600 --> 01:06:58,919
Speaker 1: for me to pass up. You know, it's crazy looking

1265
01:06:58,960 --> 01:07:02,840
Speaker 1: at points per game is like towards the bottom ten

1266
01:07:03,040 --> 01:07:06,200
Speaker 1: are the Bucks and the Packers at eighteen and seventeen

1267
01:07:06,200 --> 01:07:10,000
Speaker 1: point one. I mean that's I mean two teams that

1268
01:07:10,120 --> 01:07:12,240
Speaker 1: I mean the Bucks still might get there just based

1269
01:07:12,280 --> 01:07:16,439
Speaker 1: on their division. But the reviewed is, like I guess

1270
01:07:16,440 --> 01:07:18,920
Speaker 1: depending on who you talk to, as you know, playoff

1271
01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:22,840
Speaker 1: locks and playoff consistent stalwart teams with Brady and Rogers,

1272
01:07:23,320 --> 01:07:25,600
Speaker 1: and the eye test is as bad as like you

1273
01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:29,120
Speaker 1: just watch them. They like you said, they just can't score.

1274
01:07:29,360 --> 01:07:32,120
Speaker 1: And ultimately, like my always pushed back on on the

1275
01:07:32,240 --> 01:07:36,640
Speaker 1: on the stats, like you know, yards per play, the

1276
01:07:37,040 --> 01:07:39,560
Speaker 1: rushing stats, the passing. Ultimately, the point of the game

1277
01:07:39,600 --> 01:07:41,720
Speaker 1: is to have more points than the other team. And

1278
01:07:41,760 --> 01:07:43,240
Speaker 1: you know some of these games, I mean the Packers

1279
01:07:43,280 --> 01:07:45,920
Speaker 1: has lost the lines, not like the lines and thirty points. Right,

1280
01:07:46,120 --> 01:07:47,919
Speaker 1: what was the final in that game fifteen and nine,

1281
01:07:48,200 --> 01:07:51,240
Speaker 1: fifteen and nine, I graded it out as a Packers

1282
01:07:51,240 --> 01:07:52,920
Speaker 1: like I gred out with the final scores based on

1283
01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:56,600
Speaker 1: that's as a twelve point win. Um. They had four

1284
01:07:56,680 --> 01:08:00,000
Speaker 1: hundred yards of offense to the lines two D and fifty.

1285
01:08:01,000 --> 01:08:03,680
Speaker 1: Uh the ar play five point six to four point five. Yeah,

1286
01:08:03,720 --> 01:08:05,760
Speaker 1: I get what you're saying. There is it's it's it's

1287
01:08:05,760 --> 01:08:10,680
Speaker 1: red zone turnover. Fourth downs. There were one for four.

1288
01:08:11,200 --> 01:08:14,760
Speaker 1: Again they just and with the I normally agree with.

1289
01:08:14,800 --> 01:08:18,200
Speaker 1: You can't just look at the stats. There's there's a

1290
01:08:18,200 --> 01:08:20,400
Speaker 1: lot of times there's an underlying story. It's one of

1291
01:08:20,400 --> 01:08:23,680
Speaker 1: the reasons why I love watching the games and and

1292
01:08:23,720 --> 01:08:26,880
Speaker 1: trying to understand from that perspective as well. But like

1293
01:08:26,960 --> 01:08:29,360
Speaker 1: the fourth down thing, I do think is very flukey

1294
01:08:29,400 --> 01:08:33,120
Speaker 1: because their second in the NFL in rush success, right,

1295
01:08:33,120 --> 01:08:34,640
Speaker 1: they were a good rushing team, like they should be

1296
01:08:34,680 --> 01:08:37,920
Speaker 1: picking up these four downs. And then the red zone turner,

1297
01:08:38,040 --> 01:08:42,599
Speaker 1: like Rogers usually doesn't throw picks. He doesn't turn it over.

1298
01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:45,400
Speaker 1: It's a Hall of Fame quarterback. So that was that

1299
01:08:45,479 --> 01:08:47,519
Speaker 1: was my point on the style of the turnover. So

1300
01:08:47,760 --> 01:08:51,320
Speaker 1: to me, the throwback pass, you know, fuck, he he

1301
01:08:51,479 --> 01:08:55,200
Speaker 1: shorted it whatever. That's a weird play. But the passes

1302
01:08:55,320 --> 01:08:57,760
Speaker 1: over the middle where the guy undercuts like that, that's

1303
01:08:57,760 --> 01:09:00,720
Speaker 1: a shitty quarterback pick. In my opinion at this he's

1304
01:09:00,720 --> 01:09:06,000
Speaker 1: definitely um forcing it. And I think he's a little

1305
01:09:07,040 --> 01:09:09,559
Speaker 1: you know, just generation in the pocket because he's been

1306
01:09:10,080 --> 01:09:12,920
Speaker 1: getting he's just been under fire so much. The good

1307
01:09:12,920 --> 01:09:15,200
Speaker 1: news is their offensive line is like the healthy it

1308
01:09:15,240 --> 01:09:18,320
Speaker 1: set it's been all years. So you hope that, you know,

1309
01:09:18,320 --> 01:09:20,360
Speaker 1: back to your the rookie Tom that he's putting staffs

1310
01:09:20,520 --> 01:09:22,640
Speaker 1: was actually playing really well. They got Jenkins back in

1311
01:09:22,760 --> 01:09:26,040
Speaker 1: left guard. You hope that they can. Yeah, I assume

1312
01:09:26,080 --> 01:09:28,040
Speaker 1: they're just gonna lean on the run game here, short

1313
01:09:28,080 --> 01:09:30,400
Speaker 1: passing attack. That's what you have to do against Dallas.

1314
01:09:30,560 --> 01:09:33,360
Speaker 1: So you don't let that their defensive line take over

1315
01:09:33,400 --> 01:09:35,479
Speaker 1: the game. You can run on them a little bit.

1316
01:09:35,640 --> 01:09:38,799
Speaker 1: I'm assuming you're gonna get the best effort from their defense.

1317
01:09:38,840 --> 01:09:41,040
Speaker 1: This is it like if they want to make any

1318
01:09:41,080 --> 01:09:45,280
Speaker 1: outside shot at the playoffs, they're three and six. You

1319
01:09:45,360 --> 01:09:49,360
Speaker 1: lose this game, you're done your seasons over um. If

1320
01:09:49,400 --> 01:09:51,120
Speaker 1: you win it and you get the four and six,

1321
01:09:51,560 --> 01:09:54,559
Speaker 1: you know you're in the NFC. All of a sudden,

1322
01:09:54,800 --> 01:09:57,840
Speaker 1: four and six, you're you're in the playoffs. Like look

1323
01:09:57,840 --> 01:10:01,960
Speaker 1: at the the NFC standings. It's Philly Dallas Giants there

1324
01:10:02,680 --> 01:10:06,920
Speaker 1: have six or more wins. The Vikings have seven, The

1325
01:10:06,920 --> 01:10:11,160
Speaker 1: Seahawks have six there's still another spot in the playoffs.

1326
01:10:11,200 --> 01:10:13,880
Speaker 1: Everyone else the next highest is four wins, so you're

1327
01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:17,160
Speaker 1: right there to potentially make a run. But you don't

1328
01:10:17,200 --> 01:10:19,320
Speaker 1: win this game, you're done. So I assume you're gonna

1329
01:10:19,320 --> 01:10:23,400
Speaker 1: get their best effort everything they got um and uh,

1330
01:10:23,439 --> 01:10:26,240
Speaker 1: I just think the line is too high. Basically, it's crazy.

1331
01:10:26,280 --> 01:10:28,000
Speaker 1: They said the Chiefs can't score. They lead the league

1332
01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:29,920
Speaker 1: in scoring, but I mean they do the Cardinal game,

1333
01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:32,880
Speaker 1: the Niner game, and I think that Raider game was

1334
01:10:32,920 --> 01:10:35,040
Speaker 1: at twenty nine, So they have a couple three or

1335
01:10:35,040 --> 01:10:37,040
Speaker 1: four high scoring games that probably helped boost that a

1336
01:10:37,080 --> 01:10:39,160
Speaker 1: little bit. But yeah, the Chiefs, they don't have the

1337
01:10:39,160 --> 01:10:43,840
Speaker 1: same explosiveness they still have now Grant grant at the

1338
01:10:43,920 --> 01:10:48,200
Speaker 1: Forts were decimated by injuries on defense that game. They

1339
01:10:48,240 --> 01:10:50,840
Speaker 1: still have now, am I Jackson will that will be

1340
01:10:50,880 --> 01:10:56,120
Speaker 1: toast unless Trevor Lawrence goes off. If they the Chiefs

1341
01:10:56,160 --> 01:10:59,400
Speaker 1: have one of their days every month or so, they

1342
01:10:59,479 --> 01:11:04,080
Speaker 1: when everything is clicking, it is a spectacle to watch.

1343
01:11:04,080 --> 01:11:06,960
Speaker 1: And then Mahomes is just on another level. You just

1344
01:11:07,040 --> 01:11:09,080
Speaker 1: chalk it up. So they've had a couple one of

1345
01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:11,160
Speaker 1: those things, but it's not the same explosive. The offensive

1346
01:11:11,160 --> 01:11:14,960
Speaker 1: line isn't playing as well. Um so yeah, the Chiefs

1347
01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:17,280
Speaker 1: are don't have that same blowout potential on a week

1348
01:11:17,320 --> 01:11:21,679
Speaker 1: to week basis, Well stucky. Let's uh when some bets

1349
01:11:21,720 --> 01:11:23,200
Speaker 1: have a good weekend. Bro, let's have a good one.

1350
01:11:23,240 --> 01:11:47,240
Speaker 1: See the volume
