Detroit 48 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 1: one of my favorite stops. So we'll get to the 49 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: Lions in this one. Steve, let's talk about these the 50 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: the this trend of this week. We had a remarkable 51 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: defensive performance across the league. Eighteen point four points per 52 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: game per team. If to put that in context, that 53 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: is the lowest average for a single week since Week fifteen, 54 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: twenty fourteen. Now we haven't played the Monday night game yet, 55 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 1: so that number could either go up or down. But 56 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 1: as a whole, defenses came out and performed in Week six. 57 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 2: Was this week six? Yeah? Six? 58 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:30,639 Speaker 4: I mean, look was this week six? 59 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 2: Scott? We know idea what week. 60 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 4: It is, and we saw great defensive performances. 61 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 3: I mean, what the Jets did, what the Browns did 62 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 3: with those Detroit Lions did. But James, we cannot excuse 63 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 3: offensive ineptitude. 64 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 4: And we're gonna wait till we get to our E. 65 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 3: Block for me to really exercise a hammer on the 66 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 3: Atlanta Falcons execution in the fourth quarter, because it wasn't 67 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 3: just great defense, it was faltering on offense. But speaking 68 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 3: of great defenses, nobody may have played a better. 69 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 4: Defensive game than the Cleveland Browns. 70 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 3: As we enter a segment, we're calling teams that may 71 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 3: have saved their season. 72 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 4: We're going full game show on this JP And you know, 73 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 4: when we think. 74 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 3: About this, the Cleveland Browns upset the San Francisco forty 75 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 3: nine Ers. Sure, the storyline is that Deshaun Watson was 76 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 3: in PJ Walker and this and that, But to hold 77 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 3: a team that has been averaging more than thirty points 78 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 3: a game in the San Francisco forty nine ers to 79 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 3: seventeen points games? 80 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 4: What about the Browns. 81 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 3: We've been talking about their defense all season, but what 82 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 3: about that effort that they showed out there in that game. 83 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: We're talking about defenses saving seasons. Steve, think about this. 84 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: They are now three and two, they did have their bye. 85 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: Remember the Bengals are at the bottom of the AFC. 86 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 2: North at three and three. 87 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: This is the only division in football that doesn't have 88 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: a team with a losing record. 89 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 2: This was a monster statement win. 90 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: As my good buddy Connor Orr used to, you know, 91 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: be work with us at NFL Network. Put it the 92 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 1: statement win of the Deshaun Watson era in Cleveland, and 93 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson didn't even play in it. One a defensive 94 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: performance that. 95 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 2: This team went out and had. 96 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: You know that I rave about Jim Schwartz and that 97 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 1: he was your best acquisition that any team made this offseason. 98 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 1: No team has reached three hundred yards against this Cleveland 99 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: Browns defense. San Francisco had the two hundred and fifteen yards. 100 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 1: It was the fewest number of total yards Kyle Shanahan 101 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,479 Speaker 1: has had with his offense since he became the head 102 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 1: coach of the forty nine ers. I mean, this is 103 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: a massive statement that this group made upfront. And what 104 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: we saw Steve is really Jim Schwartz at his best right. 105 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: It's now that he knows he has multiple pass rushers 106 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: up front. 107 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 2: It's not just Miles Garrett. 108 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 1: You and I were texting with each other on Sunday 109 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,559 Speaker 1: going Now, there's other guys up there that can make plays. 110 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 1: It's Dalvin Tomlinson, it's an Arias Smith and getting all 111 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 1: of these guys after you upfront, with a secondary that 112 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: can compliment it, with three very good corners in a 113 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 1: safety in Roddy McLeod that knows this system. He has 114 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: all the peace and they think a lot of those 115 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: pieces were there last year. They've added a couple more 116 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 1: and now the defensive coordinator has put it all. 117 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 3: Together and the secondary. I'm glad you mentioned it because 118 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:12,479 Speaker 3: you know Denzel Award, Greg Newsome. 119 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 4: God blanking on who had Emerson Martin Emerson. Emerson has 120 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 4: been insane this year. 121 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 3: I mean, you look at how well the secondary is playing, 122 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 3: and oftentimes to rush and the coverage go hand in hand. 123 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 3: But Jim Schwartz is telling his dbs, you play man 124 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:30,159 Speaker 3: to man. Okay, this is what you do. 125 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 4: Now. 126 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 3: The Niners, they lost Christian McCaffrey, they lost Deebo Samuel 127 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 3: to injury, but again it happens, but they didn't have 128 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 3: their quarterback Deshaun Watson. 129 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 4: PJ. Walker started. And here's the whole thing. For as 130 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 4: great of. 131 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 3: A game as the Browns defense played, the Niners still 132 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 3: should have won had they made some field goals. We're 133 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 3: gonna discuss that a little bit later with Judy Bautista. 134 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 3: And you also mentioned the Cincinnati Bengals. This is a 135 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 3: team that absolutely saved their season. 136 00:05:58,560 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 4: Let's listen to their quarterback Joe Burt. 137 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 5: There were definitely points, like I said, opportunities that we 138 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 5: had we didn't capitalize on, but we got the win. 139 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 5: It's a lot easier to fix things when you're three 140 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 5: and three than if you had lost this one. 141 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 2: So uh, never gonna apologize for a win. JP. 142 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 3: We know a week ago Joey Burrow before they play 143 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 3: to Arizona said that was a must win. 144 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 4: To me, this was the must win. They're playing a 145 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:25,040 Speaker 4: good Seahawks team. 146 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,840 Speaker 3: I mean, this was a good game, and had they 147 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 3: lost this game, they would have been two and four 148 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 3: going into the buy and they've got to have one 149 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 3: of the most difficult schedules coming out of that five 150 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 3: any team left in the NFL. So getting a win 151 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 3: like this by lou Anarumo and the way that defense 152 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 3: dialed it up, they really kept seatlet Bay. They got 153 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,840 Speaker 3: two picks of Gino Smith. That was the difference in 154 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 3: the ball game. So we're seeing some defenses come together 155 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 3: and James, you know, one of your big question marks, 156 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 3: she pointed out several times about this Bengals defense, was 157 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 3: two new safeties coming in communication figuring that out from 158 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 3: watching this game, didn't you think this whole eleven, the 159 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 3: whole unit looked more glued in than they had all season. 160 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: They certainly did. Steve, we were always curious about the secondary. 161 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: I think Cam Taylor Brett had a great game, physical 162 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 1: corner that was following DK Metcalf all over the field. 163 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: And you knew, you just knew, as we said, things 164 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: were gonna come around for Joe Burrow's calf. You also 165 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: kind of knew how good of a coach lou and 166 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: Rimo is and that he was gonna finally start piecing 167 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: this together with his group, right, And I think what 168 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: we saw and it's been the case, and I've covered games. 169 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 2: I remember one specifically against the. 170 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 1: Chiefs a few years ago where they get teams get 171 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: down inside the goal to go distance and they just 172 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: can't score against this Lorimo defense. 173 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 2: Steve. 174 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: They're just so good when teams get down in the 175 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: short yardage goal to go situation, I believe where they 176 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: were one for five Seattle in the red zone and 177 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: so they have this bend but don't break. And that's 178 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: the point you're making, right, This effort that this team 179 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 1: has where they play up front with guys like DJ 180 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 1: Reider and Hendrickson and Sam Hubbard. They got after Gino 181 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: Smith at the end of this game and they made 182 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: big plays. The guys who were getting paid upfront made 183 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: big plays when they needed to at the end of 184 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 1: this game. I think this was a huge step, not 185 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: just for Joe Burrow. In another game, where he looks healthier. 186 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: Huge step for this defense. As you mentioned after that, 187 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 1: buy Niners, Bills, Texans, raven Steelers, Jags after that, Yeah. 188 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 3: Not very nice at all. And JP another team that 189 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 3: saved their season. This was a team where, oh, let's say, 190 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 3: four plays into Week one, we had them on. 191 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 2: C p R. 192 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:37,559 Speaker 4: Is that a CPR? 193 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, CPR right, I mean that's New York Jets. Yeah, 194 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 3: I mean they just yea, you know, they came out, 195 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 3: they won against Denver. Now they won two straight. We 196 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 3: have some more information. Let's hear from the Jets. 197 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 6: Thought defense for the usual outstanding. You know, through these 198 00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 6: first six weeks, we've played a gaunt little quarterbacks and 199 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:03,840 Speaker 6: I know we haven't gotten all wins, but we've embarrassed 200 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 6: all of them and just really really proud of the defense. 201 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 6: And it's resolved. 202 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 3: We've embarrassed all of those and you know what he did. 203 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 3: Jalen Hurts did not look good at all yesterday. I 204 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 3: know there's been some questions coming into the season, but 205 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 3: the way that the Jets defensive front, and we know 206 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 3: that is the strength of their team, they handle things 207 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,199 Speaker 3: against the Eagles offensive line, and once they did James 208 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 3: Hurts didn't look comfortable. They tried to play a little 209 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 3: bit more horizontal stuff moving him. It didn't look like 210 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 3: the functionality of their offense was anywhere in sync. But 211 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 3: I'm putting that all on the Jets and their takeaways, 212 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,439 Speaker 3: the fact that they are snatching the ball away from teams. 213 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 3: Look at the number of takeaways. There are three takeaways 214 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 3: or more in all of their three wins. James, I 215 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,679 Speaker 3: think we know how the New York Jets are going 216 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 3: to get victories this year by that that group, that 217 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 3: group in the dark green jerseys. 218 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 2: They're that this is a lot of green in this 219 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 2: in this game. Yeah, it was. 220 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 1: It was a lot of green in this game in 221 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: the field's green. I was kind of, you know, it's 222 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: tough on the eyes a little bit, but you're right, Steve. 223 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 1: You look what they did to Josh Allen three picks, 224 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes two picks, Jalen Hurt you mentioned it, three picks. 225 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 1: I'll say Dak Prescott actually did play pretty well against them, 226 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 1: But this defense, they got so much juice, and being 227 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: in that locker room a week ago in Denvery, I 228 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: could you could actually just field in the room this 229 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: kind of hope, this positivity and kind of where they're 230 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,199 Speaker 1: at right now. And I'm curious. I didn't want to 231 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: make this about him, but I'm gonna bring them up. 232 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 1: Steve Aaron Rodgers on the sideline, no boot, no crutches, 233 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 1: throw in the football. Does that play a part at 234 00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: all in this group on this defense? 235 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 2: Going? He's over there? But what if we just got 236 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 2: us into a good position by the end of the season, 237 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 2: What if he could return? I wonder if that, honestly that. 238 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: He's a good at all and kind of the positivity 239 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,439 Speaker 1: that is around this group of late over the last 240 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 1: couple of weeks. 241 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:03,200 Speaker 4: I mean, that's my point. 242 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 2: I don't know, am I reaching? 243 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 4: Yeah? I mean you're reaching. I mean there's no doubt 244 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 4: about that. But yeah, I mean who knows, like how 245 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,319 Speaker 4: some of these veteran players. No, but I mean, like CJ. 246 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 4: Mullsey might be like, if. 247 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 3: We can get there, maybe maybe this guy can get 248 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 3: us over the top. I mean, because look, the defense 249 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 3: is going to have to get them there. We've seen 250 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 3: it and it's absolutely worked. So you know, who knows 251 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 3: whatever they're doing, maybe they had, you know, like our 252 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 3: sparring partners a lot of times on the speedbag or 253 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 3: the heavy bag. They'll put their face of an opponent 254 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 3: U there. Maybe Sean Payton's face was still on there 255 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 3: and they still had a little bit more to get 256 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 3: out of their system from the week before from what 257 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 3: he said. So it is what it is. But tape 258 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 3: speak of defense. Here, here's a team we tend not 259 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 3: to talk about their defense that much. 260 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:47,920 Speaker 2: We better. 261 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:53,679 Speaker 7: The Dtroit Lions held the Tampa Bay Bucks, who are 262 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 7: winning the NFC South, to no touchdowns and getting their 263 00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 7: victory and to approve to five and one oh where 264 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 7: ties the record. 265 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 3: As the best teams in the NFL. What about you've 266 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,199 Speaker 3: been talking about Aaron Glenn the DC and the way 267 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 3: this defense was horrible last year, but over the past 268 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 3: eight game, finally games at twenty twenty two and this year, 269 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 3: the way that group is playing absolute complimentary football at 270 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 3: the highest level to that high functioning offense. 271 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, the Bucks only crossed midfield three times, Steve in 272 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: the entire game. 273 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,839 Speaker 2: I mean, this defense is playing really well. 274 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: And you're right, I mean you use the word you 275 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: want to use. For the first half of the season 276 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 1: last year, right, they were a joke. They were a 277 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 1: laughing stock. They were just one of the worst defenses 278 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: in football, and you look at where they're at now 279 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 1: and they are playing phenomenal. And what stands out to 280 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 1: me is before the season started, you know, it was 281 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 1: playing great on that back end, kind of epitomized the 282 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: identity of Dan Campbell, Chauncey Gardner, Johnson, yeah back there, 283 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 1: and that was like a big pick up for them 284 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,960 Speaker 1: in terms of the identity and the way that defense 285 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: kind of felt about himself. And then they lose him. 286 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: But they haven't missed a beat. I mean, they've hit 287 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 1: on draft picks. Aiden Hutchinson has been a monster up front. 288 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,680 Speaker 1: But to me, what also stands out, and not just 289 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: the defense, but real quick, we saw Jamison Williams for 290 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: the first time and he catches a forty five yard 291 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 1: touchdown pass and I just don't want to say that 292 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 1: this is why a Monroe Saint Brown had twelve catches 293 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 1: a career high. But now this offense has the ability 294 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 1: to beat you on a variety of levels. I can 295 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: picture James and Williams just opening things up for a 296 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 1: great receiver like a Monroe Saint Brown to have just 297 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 1: more room to operate. 298 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 2: I'm excited to see where this other side. 299 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: Of the ball continues to go as well. It's scary. 300 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 1: They got weapons. They're banged up, but they got weapons. 301 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 4: It's scary because you know that's gonna work one week. 302 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 3: You know you're gonna see a mon Ross Saint Brown 303 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 3: take the coverage other side James and it is going 304 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 3: to be And then again Laporta on the tight end. 305 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 2: Who who's playing great for Alas? 306 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 4: I mean this could be. 307 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 3: I mean this offense is already frightening and now getting 308 00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 3: it back. And I think they only score twenty points. 309 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 3: It was tied the season low. Oh, but they're more 310 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 3: of the higher scoring teams on Sunday. But to add 311 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:06,079 Speaker 3: Jamison Williams and to get him into the fold now 312 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 3: with the way this defense is playing huge, I think 313 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 3: we're gontinue having conversation about the Lions being one of 314 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 3: the best teams in the NFL teams. 315 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 2: I love it. I love it. 316 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 1: This is kind of a Lion show a little bit. 317 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 1: We finally pumped them up a little bit, and I 318 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 1: love it. All my boys that I have from Detroit, 319 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: they came right now and they're rolling. 320 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 2: They're absolutely rolling. You know who's not rolling those teams? 321 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 2: The two undefeated. 322 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 1: Teams that are now tied with the Lions with the 323 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 1: best record in the NFL. 324 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 2: They both went down. 325 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: Is there room for concern with the Niners and the 326 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: Eagles or not. Judy Batista was at that game right there. 327 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 1: We break it down on the NFL report coming up 328 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 1: next to give the Niners the league snaff is down, 329 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 1: the kick is up, the kick. 330 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 8: Is good, it's no good, and the Browns. 331 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: Will beats for forty nine ers ninetead the seven. 332 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 4: He pushed it line to the right. 333 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 9: It's always tough to miss that last kick, but that 334 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 9: happens in football. You know, we they played better than 335 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 9: us today and you know that was the last play. 336 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 9: But there was a lot more today than just that. 337 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 9: I thought we made way too many mistakes on offense, 338 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 9: you know, just losing a couple of guys in the game. 339 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 9: We had to switch a couple of guys around, and 340 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 9: we weren't quite ready for that, which starts with me 341 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 9: with too many mistakes. 342 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 10: Like it's the NFL. You get opportunities, you gotta gotta 343 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 10: take advantage of them, and so there's definitely some throws 344 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 10: and opportunities. I feel like that were there for me 345 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 10: and I missed on them, and that, you know, made 346 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 10: us be behind the sticks, and then you have to 347 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 10: get a third down, which is tough on the road here, man, 348 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 10: And that's something I gotta learn from, man. So definitely 349 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 10: gonna be. 350 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 2: Real about it. And we got we all gotta, you. 351 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 10: Know, look ourselves in the mirror and see the flaws 352 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 10: and stuff and get better from it. 353 00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 2: But it starts with me, all. 354 00:15:59,040 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 4: Right, that's lengthy. 355 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 3: Started with our own and Soiliano on the Cleveland Browns 356 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 3: radio call, pushing it wide right. Then you hear Kyle 357 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 3: Shanahans and Brock Purty, the head coach of the forty 358 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 3: nine ers and their quarterback JP that were joined by 359 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 3: Judy Batista and Judy before we spend a lot of 360 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 3: time on the forty nine ers, you were at this game, 361 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 3: just kind of what was this game like for the 362 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 3: Cleveland Browns. James and I opened up the gay block, 363 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 3: calling it a defensive just virtuoso. 364 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 11: Yeah, it was a masterpiece. Actually, the word the Niners 365 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 11: kept using to describe this game was grimy, and I 366 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 11: think that's a really appropriate word because it. 367 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 8: Was like a rock fight, right, I mean, it was 368 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 8: not pretty. Neither offense was getting the ball moving very much. 369 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 11: But the defense, I mean, the Browns defense was just tremendous, 370 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 11: and you know, had had brock Purdy on the run 371 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 11: and under dress really the entire game, and they just 372 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 11: could not get any rhythm going. Brock Purty said after 373 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 11: the game he kept thinking, at any moment, Okay, we're 374 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,679 Speaker 11: gonna get it going. We're gonna get it going. That 375 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 11: was their mindset. It just didn't happen. Certainly, the injuries 376 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 11: to McCaffrey and Depot played a very big part in that, 377 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 11: because that first drive, that first drive the Niners had. 378 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 8: Was like clockwork right. They were running big chunks of yardage. 379 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 8: It was perfect, and you're thinking, I mean I was 380 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 8: sitting in the press box thinking this game is going 381 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 8: to be fifty to nothing. I mean, this is a disaster. 382 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 8: I could start writing it right now. And then slowly 383 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 8: you could see the Browns defense just taking over and 384 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 8: they were getting the Niners behind the chains at long second, 385 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 8: second and long third and long they could not convert. 386 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 8: And then of course that allows Jim Schwartz to do 387 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 8: what Jim Schwartz loves to do, and that is on 388 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 8: Leasha pass rush. And you know, this is the game 389 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 8: you were waiting for brock Purty to have. All along, 390 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 8: we were wondering, is he. 391 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 11: Ever going to have a game where he looks sort 392 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 11: of discompopulated and can't recover. And the reality of the 393 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 11: situation is it was inevitable a game like this was 394 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:06,199 Speaker 11: going to happen, and in part happened because he's usual 395 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:10,479 Speaker 11: safety net, Christian McCaffrey Deebo Samuel were both gone at 396 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 11: the same time and they just couldn't get anything going. 397 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 11: And still having said that, and this is a testament 398 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,120 Speaker 11: to how very good San Francisco forty nine ers are 399 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,719 Speaker 11: and how hard they're going to be to knockout this season. 400 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 8: Still they should have won the gain. 401 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, they should have won the game. You miss a 402 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,199 Speaker 1: forty one yard field goal that you most likely should make. 403 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 1: Rock Party still got them. You could say in the 404 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,400 Speaker 1: field goal range, and everybody would be saying, Judy that well, 405 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: rock Party did his job at the end of the game, 406 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 1: even though. 407 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 2: They struggled, and he put him out there. 408 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,399 Speaker 1: So we have the Niners go down, were undefeated, the 409 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 1: Eagles go down. They were undefeated. So I want to 410 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 1: play a little game real quick about concerned or not concerned. 411 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,920 Speaker 1: I heard you kind of break down the Niners side 412 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 1: of things, So Judy, I wanted to know, are you 413 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:53,119 Speaker 1: concerned at all about the forty nine ers? 414 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:54,160 Speaker 2: And then Steve follow. 415 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,680 Speaker 8: Up, I am not concerned about the forty nine ers. 416 00:18:58,160 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 8: Let me rephrase this. 417 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 11: I would be concerned about the injuries, right, But we 418 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 11: saw I saw McCaffrey and Debo both were in the 419 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 11: locker room after the game and did not appear to 420 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 11: be in any kind of distress. Actually, Trent Williams had 421 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 11: a boot on his right foot, so he looked to 422 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,679 Speaker 11: be in worse shape than either of those two, and 423 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:17,439 Speaker 11: he came back and played the game. But he's like 424 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 11: remarkably tough and has a ridiculous pain threshold. So the injuries, 425 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,680 Speaker 11: which always seems to be an issue for the forty 426 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 11: nine ers coming down the stretch, that concerns me. But 427 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 11: nothing else about yesterday concerns me. It was sort of 428 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 11: the perfect storm of things. The conditions were bad, they 429 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,199 Speaker 11: had the injuries, They made a lot of mistakes. I 430 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,879 Speaker 11: thought kyleie Used just said something really profound in the 431 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 11: locker room, and he said, you know, you can think 432 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 11: about that five and zero record and think you're perfect 433 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 11: all the time. He said, sometimes it's better to make mistake. 434 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 11: You learn more from mistakes than you do from success. 435 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 11: So like, basically, sometimes it's better to have a reality check. 436 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 11: And obviously it's much better to have a reality check 437 00:19:57,040 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 11: in week six than a week seventeen, for example. 438 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean this game, and I think what happened 439 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 3: throughout the league this weekend goes to show you how 440 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 3: hard it is to play at a high level every 441 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 3: week in the NFL, and no team had been breezing along. 442 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 3: I won't say breezing along with playing at such a 443 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 3: high level than the forty. 444 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 4: Nine ers, But Judy, I do want to ask you 445 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 4: this because we. 446 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 3: Saw the dourest of brock Party was under I mean, 447 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 3: you saw a look on his face sometimes that you 448 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,159 Speaker 3: hadn't seen. It was like, oh man, they've kind of 449 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 3: figured us out. They know what we're trying to do here. 450 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 3: You know, with all this talk about brock Party and 451 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 3: James and I have led the fan club for him 452 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:33,200 Speaker 3: to be in the m VP conversation, someone's gonna say 453 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:35,159 Speaker 3: probably a lot of we're gonna say, see, he's not 454 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 3: good enough to elevate his guys Is that fair when 455 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:41,400 Speaker 3: you're when you're down a couple of stars. 456 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:50,399 Speaker 1: Uh, No, we're gonna do that week one. For Patrick Mahomes, 457 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 1: you could, let's put an on the game. 458 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 2: I don't. And Christian McCaffrey, I want to be clear. 459 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,879 Speaker 11: I am not putting Brock Party in the same conversation 460 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 11: with Patrick Mahomes. 461 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 8: Quite yet, let's just start there. 462 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 4: But no, we have I know you have. 463 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:06,880 Speaker 8: But he should be. 464 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 11: Certainly before this game, he should have been an MVP candidate. 465 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 11: I think it's easy to sort of look at this 466 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 11: game and say, well, you know, he was the last 467 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 11: pick on the draft, so this was inevitable. We're going 468 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,119 Speaker 11: to have a game like this again. There were a 469 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 11: whole lot of things going on in this game. The 470 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 11: conditions were very bad. You saw the balls slip out 471 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 11: of his hands. They had a lot of mistakes, there 472 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 11: were drops, there were penalties, There was a lot going on. 473 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 11: It was not all on Brock Purty. Did he recover 474 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,359 Speaker 11: well no, but you heard Kyle Shanahan and that clip 475 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 11: we just play played say it. None of them adjusted 476 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:42,919 Speaker 11: very well, Like he did not think they had the 477 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,720 Speaker 11: guys ready who needed to adjust. When the guys went 478 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 11: out that were injured, and that's something they have to 479 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 11: work on. And I think that's sort of what's good 480 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,160 Speaker 11: about losing in Week six. If you are a team 481 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 11: of this calibrees, it showed you what you got to 482 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 11: work on. They've still got stuff to work on. 483 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 8: They got to be on their p's and q's, and 484 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 8: now they will address those things. And I big picture, 485 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 8: I am not concerned about the forty nine ers. 486 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 2: Not concern I'm not concerned. 487 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 1: You know why, Judy, Because Kyle shannan just is not 488 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 1: going to play Jim Schwartz every week all times. Kyle 489 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 1: Shanahan is one an eight against Jim Schwartz. He worn't 490 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,679 Speaker 1: as an offensive coordinator in two thousand and eight in 491 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 1: the Houston Texans, So he's not going to fight Schwartzy 492 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:27,119 Speaker 1: every single week, all right, Judy, concerned or not concerned 493 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 1: about the Philadelphia Eagles loss to the Jets where they 494 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: I think nine or ten times tried to hand the 495 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,160 Speaker 1: game to Robert Solids team. 496 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 11: Yeah, there were some issues in the game that I 497 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 11: was like, what are we doing here? Like when you're 498 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,880 Speaker 11: driving to try to put the Jets away, to try 499 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:46,439 Speaker 11: to score a touchdown, I'm like how about we just 500 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:48,160 Speaker 11: run the ball and run the clock. 501 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 8: I know that's unpassioned. 502 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,879 Speaker 11: And pumped it and pin an offense way back that 503 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,119 Speaker 11: struggles to move the ball right. So okay, But so 504 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,359 Speaker 11: I didn't love the game management there. But big picture, 505 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 11: am I concerned about the Eagles? No, We've been saying 506 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 11: this these few weeks here of this season. Is right, 507 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 11: they're not quite clicking, they're not quite in the groove. 508 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,160 Speaker 11: While the offense was clearly not in the groove. I mean, 509 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 11: Jalen Hurts did not play well. Each interception he threw 510 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 11: was worse than the one before. But again, you got 511 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 11: to give some credit to the Jets. The Jets have 512 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:27,880 Speaker 11: a really, really good defense, and you got to give 513 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 11: it to them. 514 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 8: They befuddled the Eagles. 515 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,440 Speaker 11: But you're not playing a defense like that every week, 516 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 11: and the Eagles had one game like this, And again 517 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 11: I think, just like if your a team like the Eagles, 518 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 11: just like the forty nine ers of this caliber, with 519 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 11: this kind of roster, you look at a game like 520 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 11: this and say, all right. 521 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:46,200 Speaker 8: What did it show us that we need to work on? 522 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 8: And we're going to address. 523 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,399 Speaker 11: Those things because this can't happen again. And it certainly 524 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 11: can't happen in January. But did you come out of 525 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 11: that game thinking there's still not one of the two 526 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 11: or three best teams in the NFC, maybe one of 527 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,119 Speaker 11: the two or three best teams in the entire I 528 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 11: felt No. I mean, I still think they're one of 529 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 11: the top five teams in the entire league. 530 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 8: So no, not worried. 531 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 2: Only six. 532 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean they're still not clicking, but they're still 533 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 3: better than most teams, Judy, And you know, again, I 534 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 3: just give so much credit to what the Jets did. 535 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 3: I just can't even look at the Eagles like, Okay, 536 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:21,479 Speaker 3: let's not forget. 537 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 4: I mean, Lane Johnson James. 538 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 3: Went out for the Eagles, and that's that's really when 539 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 3: things seem to turn. 540 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 1: When their right tackle was done right, that changed everything. 541 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 1: You saw Jalen Hurts play differently once Lane Johnson went down. 542 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: He just kept trying to leave the pocket as quickly 543 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,480 Speaker 1: as he could and try to get out there in 544 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 1: some space and make some plays. And that's the trust 545 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 1: that he has in Lane. We'll see how long he's out, 546 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:46,959 Speaker 1: but that is my little concern. If they're not one 547 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:50,399 Speaker 1: hundred percent up front, guys, I think that could be 548 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 1: a concern of sense, but there's not a lot of 549 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,880 Speaker 1: concern when there were bad drops by DeVante Smith and 550 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 1: a drop by Dallas Goddard, just weird picks. It was execution. 551 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 1: It wasn't bad play calling. They should have put the 552 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,119 Speaker 1: Jets away. But this is one they're gonna look back 553 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: on and go. I can't believe we ended up losing 554 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 1: that game. The one concern I do have also is 555 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 1: they finished this game with only one starter of their 556 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: secondary still on the field. That's how many injuries they 557 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,159 Speaker 1: have had to the safety position. In the corner position 558 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,679 Speaker 1: was just James Bradberry the only one back there that 559 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 1: was still a regular starter. 560 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 11: This is the time of the season where you start worried, 561 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 11: where you start worrying about the injuries piling up. 562 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 8: That's my takeaway from these. 563 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 1: Launch and we're approaching and we're approaching the trade deadline. 564 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: I wonder if Howi Roseman is ever active at any 565 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 1: other point other than the. 566 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 2: Start officials to improve this roster. 567 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,920 Speaker 1: Usually always he is, Judy. Wonderful to have you as always, 568 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,680 Speaker 1: nice seeing you. Glad you're back up in New York 569 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 1: no longer in Cleveland. Coming up, we have Cameron Woolf 570 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:50,400 Speaker 1: joining us with an inside look. 571 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 2: We're gonna break this down. 572 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,880 Speaker 1: A new play caller already for number one overall pick, 573 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,880 Speaker 1: Bryce Jung. It's offensive coordinator Thomas Brown. We're gonna break 574 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 1: this down from every angle on the NFL forus. Cameron 575 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 1: Wolfe coming out, Welcome back to the NFL Report, James Palmer, 576 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 1: Steve which with you and that handsome man right over 577 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 1: there is Cameron wolf and Cam we brought you on. 578 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 2: We are already having it. 579 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:13,119 Speaker 1: And then the news breaks about Thomas Brown now taking 580 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 1: over play calling for the Carolina Panthers. 581 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 2: I want you to hear this. On September fourteenth, right near. 582 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:19,120 Speaker 1: The beginning of the season, I think we're in week two, 583 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:23,159 Speaker 1: we had Thomas Brown on the show and we asked 584 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 1: him his play calling philosophy. 585 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 3: Cam, listen to this, and Thomas, we saw in preset 586 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 3: second half of games you were calling the place. Frank 587 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 3: Reichers said, at some point, you guys are going to 588 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:36,399 Speaker 3: make the transition, whatever that is this season, next season, whatever, 589 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 3: You're gonna be the play caller. How do you guys 590 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:41,159 Speaker 3: work with that? How does Frank work with you? And 591 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 3: when you coach under Sean McVay and maybe teaching you 592 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:46,639 Speaker 3: some of the things and taking your input on some 593 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,399 Speaker 3: things you guys can forge when that transition takes place. 594 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,360 Speaker 12: But one, I've always been a sponge, so have an 595 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 12: opportunity to, like you mentioned before, being in the environment 596 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 12: with so many great minds around us, but the kind 597 00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 12: of one on one time with Frank every single day 598 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:01,119 Speaker 12: with to get that game plan. 599 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:02,360 Speaker 2: To talk about certain ideas. 600 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,160 Speaker 12: Obviously winning on guy like coach Calwood as well, who 601 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 12: can kind of obviously add advice from his vast experience 602 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,760 Speaker 12: from a behind the standpoint, But I think it's about 603 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 12: the daily collaboration and me understanding more about him and 604 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 12: kind of vice versa in combination with putting out buzzing 605 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 12: players in the best spot to have success right weekend 606 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 12: and week out. 607 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 1: Tom, I'm fascinated by play callers. I love when guys 608 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: say there's so much in the zone. They're not even 609 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,399 Speaker 1: looking at the sheet, right, They're just they're just calling it. 610 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 1: But everybody kind of has a different description of it, right. 611 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 1: Some guys say it's a science, some guys say it's 612 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:36,360 Speaker 1: an art. Some guys say it's a feel. How would 613 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:38,440 Speaker 1: you describe play calling. 614 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 12: I think the biggest part of it is about preparation, 615 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:43,640 Speaker 12: you know, so obviously being able to have a fell 616 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 12: on game is important. Being able to adapt in the 617 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 12: just opinion, what the opponent is giving is going to 618 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,360 Speaker 12: be a big part of you having success on game day. 619 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,640 Speaker 12: But it's about what are you doing throughout the week 620 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 12: putting the game and putting the game on from a 621 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 12: game plan standpoint, how you bring it to life more importantly, 622 00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 12: how you explain those details to your play because all 623 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,199 Speaker 12: boiled down to not how smart you claimed to be 624 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 12: a want to be as a play caller, but how 625 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 12: smart are your players what those guys can activate on 626 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 12: game day? 627 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 2: All right? Cam, I think you did have a little inkling. 628 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 1: Is that the word that this change was maybe happening 629 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,679 Speaker 1: and they're heading into a bye It does kind of 630 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:21,120 Speaker 1: add up a little bit. 631 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 2: What do you got for us? 632 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:24,400 Speaker 13: Yeah, James, definitely, I talked. 633 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 14: I was actually at this game this weekend, this past Sunday, 634 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,119 Speaker 14: and I talked to a key Panthers figure and I 635 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 14: asked him the question, when is the move to Thomas 636 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 14: Brown happening? And he said, watch this Dolphins game. Depending 637 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,679 Speaker 14: on how it goes, it could be imminent. Now emminent 638 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 14: ended up being less than twenty four hours later, as 639 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 14: our insiders reported earlier. But this move was this move 640 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 14: was coming. They obviously have struggled out the gate. They're 641 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 14: ow to six. Bryce Young has not played to level 642 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 14: that he's capable of or that they want him to. 643 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 14: And they love Thomas Brown's potential as a play caller. 644 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 14: He called plays in the second half of every preseason 645 00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 14: game and like he's done in every step of the way. 646 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 13: He's blown own Frank right away with that ability. 647 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 14: So it allows Frank right to take a step back 648 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:07,440 Speaker 14: and really allows Thomas Brown to push Bryce Young. And 649 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 14: I want to tell you a little bit about this, 650 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 14: because Bryce Young is gonna be a great player in 651 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 14: this league, but he has to be coached and there's 652 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 14: some elements of him that they wanted him to be 653 00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 14: more urgent, to play faster. He's got that California cool vibe. 654 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 14: Bottom Thomas Brown's gonna pus him. Thomas Brown's gonna get 655 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,720 Speaker 14: him to be the quarterback they want him to be 656 00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 14: and to fix some of the issues they had with 657 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 14: this offense. 658 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 13: And so he's going to get a couple of weeks 659 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 13: to plan. 660 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 14: With this bye week, but expect a different level of intensity, 661 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 14: a different level of speed when Thomas Brown's out there 662 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 14: leading this offense and call him plays when they come 663 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 14: out of the buy. 664 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 3: So, Cam, you said something that I found very interesting, 665 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 3: you know, when you were speaking to someone saying, hey, 666 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 3: depending on how the Miami game falls out, a change 667 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 3: is imminent. 668 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 4: I have covered sports for more than thirty years of 669 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 4: my life, NBA, major college football, NFL. 670 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 3: I have never had a head coach say, man, if 671 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 3: I call a bad game, I am going to I'm 672 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 3: gonna strip myself of my my duties. And when I 673 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:04,600 Speaker 3: hear the word imminent, that tends to come from somebody 674 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 3: high above. So let's go ahead and walk through a 675 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 3: timeline of this last week. Frank Wright comes out and 676 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 3: talks about head coach David Tepper and the relationship are 677 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 3: the owner David Tepper and basically saying he's involved, like 678 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 3: he has his hands all in the kool aid. 679 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 4: And then Sunday morning. 680 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 3: Our only et Rappaport reports how, hey, there's a watch 681 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 3: on Frank Reich and how the offense goes and how 682 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 3: Bryce Young develops. 683 00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 4: Could determine some things. 684 00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 3: So to me, imminent sounds like owner David Tepper, even 685 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,480 Speaker 3: though Frank Wrich said this was one hundred percent his decision, 686 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 3: that he had something to do with this change, because 687 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 3: everything we continue to be hurt, you know, to hear 688 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 3: and be glad. It seems like David Tepper has got 689 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 3: an itsy trigger finger. Did Tepper have anything to do 690 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 3: with this decision, because it sure as hell sounds like 691 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:52,080 Speaker 3: he did. 692 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 14: Steve the Panthers are saying that it was Frank Reich's decision. 693 00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 14: He says today one hundred percent my decision. But I'll 694 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 14: tell you what, David Tepper and Nicole have been around 695 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 14: every step of the way from the draft, from the 696 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 14: pre draft process. 697 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 13: I saw them walking the sidelines on the. 698 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 14: Game yesterday, walking right next to Scott Fitterer and Dan Morgan, 699 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 14: their whole front office, and so they were definitely involved 700 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 14: in it. Now what percentage of it was Frank Wright 701 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 14: versus the pushing the ownership. That might be something only 702 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 14: they know, But you can't tell me that Tepper wasn't 703 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:22,800 Speaker 14: involved in this at all. He has made clear he 704 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:25,480 Speaker 14: wants to see Bryce Young be the quarterback they traded 705 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 14: up to get and he has not got that. 706 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 13: So far and so. 707 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 14: Frank Wright, there was a feel that they had to 708 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 14: make some sort of change. I knew that the Thomas 709 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 14: Brown to play call and move was going to happen. 710 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 14: The only uncertainty was the timing. The timing might be 711 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 14: what we're talking about here, and that maybe that's where 712 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 14: ownership came into play and had a heavier handed. 713 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 1: When things aren't going well, what happens, right, Changes happen. 714 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 1: You try to find ways to correct what's been going on, 715 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 1: and we already saw them and those changes guys prior 716 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 1: to this move, in this change in terms of play callers, right, 717 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:02,080 Speaker 1: what did they do kind of simplified things. Frank Wright 718 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 1: made a big point about saying, when things aren't going well, 719 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 1: you don't add more, right, you take stuff away and 720 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:09,480 Speaker 1: you make it simpler. They took stuff off of Bryce 721 00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 1: Young's plate pre snap and that's no slight to Bryce 722 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 1: Young and the process area is and the mental ability 723 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 1: he has at the quarterback spot, that's what everybody raves about. 724 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 1: It's almost like there was so much put on him 725 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 1: early because he could handle it going okay, he can 726 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 1: handle all of this, but it's still a lot for 727 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 1: a young quarterback. So it took away some of the verbiage, 728 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: took away some of the pre snap responsibilities, and we've seen, Actually, 729 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 1: don't you think Kim a better quarterback over maybe the 730 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 1: last two weeks than we did in the beginning of 731 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 1: the season in a sense from Bryce Young? But where 732 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 1: my mind goes with this entire thing is all right, 733 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 1: now we've made these changes, then we made more changes, 734 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:48,960 Speaker 1: then we had a conversation with the owner, and now 735 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 1: we're changing play calling. 736 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 2: This is still a very young quarterback that now is 737 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 2: going through another change. 738 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 1: When we all talk about continuity with young quarterbacks, do 739 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 1: you think Bryce Young takes us back in any sense 740 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 1: because now you're changing everything for him once again. 741 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 2: Heading into this Bywey, I. 742 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 14: Think Thomas Brown will be a net positive for Bryce 743 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 14: because what we've seen is them being one of the 744 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 14: bottom offenses in the league. I'll tell you what at 745 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 14: that game, he had two of the best drives I've 746 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 14: seen him play in his career, leading those touchdowns in 747 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:20,680 Speaker 14: the first quarter against the Dolphins, and there were key 748 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 14: things to watch there. They were moving up tempo, he 749 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:26,080 Speaker 14: didn't have a lot of responsibilities pre snap, and he 750 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 14: was using the risk band and I think the risk 751 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 14: band's key because I heard about this this past week. 752 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 14: Bryce Young was very hesitant early in the season to 753 00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 14: use the risk band. He wanted to be able to 754 00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 14: spit out all the play calls himself. You want to 755 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 14: show that you're this smart processing quarterback like he is, 756 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 14: and they were slow. They had a lot of penalties, 757 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 14: they were processing slow. The reality is Tom Brady used 758 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 14: the risk band. You've got to be able to adjust 759 00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 14: to what your scheme and flow of it is. I 760 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 14: think you'll see more urgency from the offense and also 761 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 14: a little bit more pressure on Bryce Young to be 762 00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:58,960 Speaker 14: and be within the offense. One other thing to note 763 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 14: that I think you'll see a wise h This was 764 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 14: one of the lowest motion teams in the NFL this 765 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,240 Speaker 14: past year. They were in the bottom eight. They're mixing 766 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 14: a couple offenses with Frank Craik and the Rams. The 767 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:12,839 Speaker 14: Rams traditionally have been a high motion team. They've been 768 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 14: in the top ten motion in the last few years. 769 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:17,400 Speaker 14: They've been effective at it. I think when Thomas Brown's 770 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,160 Speaker 14: taking over his play caller, you'll see a little bit 771 00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:21,399 Speaker 14: more motion and maybe you see a little bit more 772 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:25,399 Speaker 14: effectiveness in the processing. The anticipation that Bryce Young really 773 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 14: excels in and so I do think it may take 774 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 14: a little time to adjudge for price, but ideally he 775 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:33,279 Speaker 14: gets to do more of what he excelled in Alabama 776 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 14: under Thomas Brown and more of a New Age offense 777 00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 14: than what they were running over the first six weeks. 778 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:41,279 Speaker 3: Here here, here's ry anticipated on of Thomas Brown. 779 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 4: What position did he play in college? 780 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:45,520 Speaker 2: Running back? 781 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 4: What position did he play? What position? Has coached in 782 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 4: the NFL? Mainly running the ball. 783 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:54,400 Speaker 3: Bryce Young is throwing the damn ball thirty seven times 784 00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:57,719 Speaker 3: a game. Yep, that's like that's Patrick Mahomes range. This 785 00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 3: is granted they're playing for behind. He's got to throw. 786 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 4: They bail on the run too quickly. 787 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 3: So Thomas Brown's gonna say, hey, halftime like Dolphins game, 788 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 3: he actually twenty one to fourteen, we can still run 789 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:11,800 Speaker 3: the ball. He is going to find a way to 790 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:14,279 Speaker 3: set up blocking schemes. He was just a running back coach. 791 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,919 Speaker 3: He's a tight ends coach. He knows how to organize things. 792 00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:20,120 Speaker 3: He was a run game coordinator. So I think you're 793 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 3: gonna seed to run the ball a lot more. Maybe 794 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:24,279 Speaker 3: not a lot more, but they're gonna run it more 795 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 3: to help out Bryce Young all this stuff, but you know, 796 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,759 Speaker 3: dumbing down the verbiage and all that.

They are going 806 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:55,879 Speaker 1: to host the Texans and the Colts before they hit 807 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:58,479 Speaker 1: the road to face the Chicago bar There. 808 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 2: Those are three very winnable games. 809 00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:06,160 Speaker 1: Cam very very quickly, maybe fifteen twenty seconds, tell me this. 810 00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:10,760 Speaker 1: If they lose those games, what is David Teffans against? 811 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 2: What quarterback? 812 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:14,080 Speaker 4: Section's who puts the quarterback for the Textans? 813 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:14,560 Speaker 10: C J. 814 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 13: Stroud Absolutely, And that's a J. 815 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 2: Stroud, Steve Right. 816 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:17,960 Speaker 3: C J. 817 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:22,439 Speaker 14: Stroud has been amazing, amazing with quite questionable supporting cast 818 00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:24,360 Speaker 14: going into the season offensive side of the ball. And 819 00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 14: so owners are comparison to people we took Bryce Young. 820 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:28,920 Speaker 13: Why is CJ. 821 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,239 Speaker 14: Stroud looking like this and our guy's not looking like this, 822 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 14: and so this is an important period of time, this 823 00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 14: next month, and that's why I think that the change 824 00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:38,520 Speaker 14: was made. Now a very key time to see Bryce 825 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,400 Speaker 14: Young look like he is supposed to look, and briefly 826 00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:43,480 Speaker 14: before I go, I think there was one more interesting 827 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 14: thing that I saw as we walked out. 828 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:46,759 Speaker 13: Bryce Young got an. 829 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 14: Embraced from Tua as he's leaving the field, and I 830 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:53,280 Speaker 14: think it's important to show that embrace because Tua dealt 831 00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 14: with a lot of struggles over the first two years 832 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:57,879 Speaker 14: of his career, and he told me when I asked him, 833 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 14: he essentially shared with Bryce Young what he would want 834 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:02,879 Speaker 14: somebody to tell him as a rookie to block out 835 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,879 Speaker 14: the media, the naysayers, grow through your struggles and run 836 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,359 Speaker 14: your own race to a live that and came through 837 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:11,720 Speaker 14: it better. Bryce has never failed really at anything throughout 838 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:13,640 Speaker 14: his career, and so it's a chest of adversity for 839 00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:16,120 Speaker 14: him and how he takes this challenge. I love that 840 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,320 Speaker 14: Tua did that, and I'm eager to see how Bryce 841 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:21,759 Speaker 14: responds to the challenge of what he essentially is being 842 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:24,280 Speaker 14: told he wasn't good enough over the first six weeks 843 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:25,240 Speaker 14: of his NFL career. 844 00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:30,359 Speaker 2: Love it camp brilliant. This was great stuff, man, great stuff. God. 845 00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:30,799 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. 846 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,759 Speaker 1: I didn't want to say this, but this might be 847 00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:37,319 Speaker 1: the most disastrous organization in the NFL at the moment 848 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 1: where we stand at this point in the NFL. It 849 00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:43,200 Speaker 1: is wild down there in Carolina. We'll have to keep 850 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:44,799 Speaker 1: an eye on it. The guy who was picked right 851 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:45,640 Speaker 1: after Bryce. 852 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:47,680 Speaker 2: Young, well out c J.

You wrote about teams 885 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:28,879 Speaker 1: that are better than their record is, and this team 886 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:31,640 Speaker 1: was in kind of that group. What have you seen 887 00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 1: from the Houston Texans that makes you impressed? Now that 888 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:36,200 Speaker 1: they're heading into their buy at three. 889 00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 15: And three, you look at their wins, they're three and three, 890 00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:43,040 Speaker 15: and those three wins came against Pittsburgh, they came against Jacksonville, 891 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:44,799 Speaker 15: and they came against New Orleans and they blew out 892 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 15: two of those teams, which tells me that they're really, 893 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 15: really a serious team, not just a flute next to 894 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:52,960 Speaker 15: the team that got lucky against some lesser squads, but 895 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:56,280 Speaker 15: a team that can play with legitimate, well coached squads. 896 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,799 Speaker 15: But then you also look at the fact that when look, 897 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,719 Speaker 15: I'm guilty of this, when this team started playing this year, 898 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:04,480 Speaker 15: I thought three coaches in three years, riocky. 899 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:07,359 Speaker 2: Quarterback, it's going to take some time. CJ. Stroud proved 900 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:07,880 Speaker 2: me wrong. 901 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,800 Speaker 15: But the balance they have on this on this team, 902 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 15: going into that New Orleans game, they were eleventh in 903 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:15,360 Speaker 15: the league in scoring offense, eleventh in the league and 904 00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:19,520 Speaker 15: scoring defense. This team talked about all off season about 905 00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:22,279 Speaker 15: building a team around whoever they drafted a quarterback, and 906 00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:24,799 Speaker 15: you're seeing it play out now. I'm really impressed by 907 00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:27,160 Speaker 15: what they've done. You look at the AFC South, one 908 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 15: game behind Jacksonville, they feel a lot like Jacksonville felt 909 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:31,520 Speaker 15: last season. 910 00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:33,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, but Jeff, one thing, you know, if you could, 911 00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:36,000 Speaker 3: because I think one of our big questions with the 912 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:39,759 Speaker 3: Texans was well two organizationally, as you mentioned, they have 913 00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:42,360 Speaker 3: been a train wreck and now you have a bunch 914 00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:45,799 Speaker 3: of the first year coaches and coordinators. What about the 915 00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 3: fact that Demico Ryans could assemble the staff of first 916 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,799 Speaker 3: year guys that could have this type of impact right 917 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:56,120 Speaker 3: away when there was constant chaos in Houston for two 918 00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 3: respective seasons. 919 00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:01,760 Speaker 15: Well, it speaks to what he learned with the forty 920 00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,120 Speaker 15: nine ers, being around Kyle Shanahan of that outfit, and 921 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:06,680 Speaker 15: you look at the success Mike McDaniels had in Miami 922 00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:07,240 Speaker 15: as well. 923 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:10,800 Speaker 2: These guys are very good organization. They're players coaches. 924 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 15: I love this new age of coaches coming into this league, 925 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:16,319 Speaker 15: younger guys who have a better feel for how to 926 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:19,960 Speaker 15: deal with the media, how to connect with the younger players, 927 00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:22,160 Speaker 15: and I think you're seeing that happen here. You know, 928 00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:24,880 Speaker 15: I think Jamaica Rians has great credibility obviously as a 929 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 15: former player and a player for the Texans, but he 930 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:31,319 Speaker 15: also understands that organization, the politics, and he's okay with 931 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:33,480 Speaker 15: everything there, and so I think that he's done a 932 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:37,319 Speaker 15: tremendous job and should be with Robert Salah talked about 933 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:38,360 Speaker 15: it as a Coach of the Year candidate. 934 00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:42,920 Speaker 1: Now, I totally agree, and I think that I'd be 935 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:45,239 Speaker 1: told repeatedly Robertson should be in a mix. 936 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:48,160 Speaker 2: I told him should be in the mix. I love. 937 00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:50,880 Speaker 1: I mean, everybody, you could ask casual fans that are 938 00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 1: not tens of you know, the Houston Texans, say who 939 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:55,600 Speaker 1: is the offensive coordinator of the Houston Texans. I don't 940 00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 1: know how many of them would tell you it's Bobby Slowak, 941 00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:00,319 Speaker 1: Like I it's it's it's a name that many people 942 00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:03,280 Speaker 1: didn't know. Demiko Ryans knew him well. And this offense 943 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:05,319 Speaker 1: is playing pretty well, Jeff. And that's why I want 944 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:06,759 Speaker 1: to kind of hit you on that side of the 945 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 1: ball because this stat jumped out. 946 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:10,920 Speaker 2: Of me and I thought it was bonkers. It says 947 00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:11,560 Speaker 2: c J. 948 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:14,720 Speaker 1: Straud was sacked for the first time since Week two 949 00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:17,160 Speaker 1: in this game this past Sunday. That's one hundred and 950 00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:21,440 Speaker 1: seventeen consecutive pass plays without a sack. And it wasn't 951 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 1: like his offensive line has been intact and all of 952 00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:26,719 Speaker 1: the starters have been there and the run game has 953 00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:27,440 Speaker 1: been dominant. 954 00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 2: It hasn't they were going to rely on that as well. 955 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:32,759 Speaker 1: So what has he done, because so much of this 956 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 1: is right the head coach and the foundation that you 957 00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:37,960 Speaker 1: build when you want to flip a culture. But when 958 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:40,400 Speaker 1: you have a quarterback that's young, that's part of that 959 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:43,279 Speaker 1: new culture, playing the way CJ. Shroud is, it's a 960 00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:44,799 Speaker 1: lot easier to buy in as well. 961 00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:47,279 Speaker 15: Yeah, well he's comment and he hasn't had to do 962 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:50,040 Speaker 15: too much and a lot like what brock Perdy did 963 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:52,759 Speaker 15: in San Francisco. Granted he has way more weapons and 964 00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:56,120 Speaker 15: way more experienced in the offensive coaching area. Was Kyle 965 00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:58,000 Speaker 15: Shanahan there, but he came in and he trusted his 966 00:42:58,040 --> 00:42:59,840 Speaker 15: skill set and he trusted well was in. 967 00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:00,480 Speaker 4: Front of them. 968 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:03,840 Speaker 15: I agree with you with the the offensive line for 969 00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:06,080 Speaker 15: the Texan has been underrated story here. And we kind 970 00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:07,440 Speaker 15: of joked in the first couple of weeks of the 971 00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:09,480 Speaker 15: season when they were, you know, getting beaten up and 972 00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:11,840 Speaker 15: not running the football very effectively and a lot of 973 00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:14,360 Speaker 15: guys were hurt that whereas it's leading. But now you 974 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:17,000 Speaker 15: realize they have some really good depth and when Lermie 975 00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:19,640 Speaker 15: Tony's Tunels healthy, George Fans is healthy, when they have 976 00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:23,000 Speaker 15: those guys on the on the book nds, they're available, 977 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:26,879 Speaker 15: they're pretty good offensive line and so you know, again 978 00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:29,399 Speaker 15: I didn't see it coming. But a lot of times 979 00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:32,239 Speaker 15: when you're building with the offensive line and up front, 980 00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:34,600 Speaker 15: you don't recognize that stuff until these kind of stats 981 00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:35,200 Speaker 15: get thrown out. 982 00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:37,719 Speaker 4: That's right. Titus Howard is also back. You know, they're 983 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:39,280 Speaker 4: they're start starting offensive lineman. 984 00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,279 Speaker 3: But let's go to the West Coast because the team 985 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:44,480 Speaker 3: that we a lot of folks thought was gonna be 986 00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:49,040 Speaker 3: terrible in the Los Angeles Rams, they've been in every game. 987 00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:49,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm right there. 988 00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:52,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I thought they were gonna be better because 989 00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:53,640 Speaker 3: just because Stafford was gonna throw the ball at the 990 00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:55,440 Speaker 3: Cooper Cup all that, But I didn't realize Cooper Cup, 991 00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 3: we're gonna be out and. 992 00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:58,719 Speaker 4: Poop Pooka Nakua was gonna slip right in. 993 00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:02,360 Speaker 3: But to me, Jeff, watching the Rams, the job Raheem 994 00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 3: Morris has done with a defense where you have one 995 00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:09,040 Speaker 3: recognizable player, that's one of the best coaching jobs that 996 00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:10,480 Speaker 3: we've seen in the NFL all season. 997 00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:11,439 Speaker 2: Yeah. 998 00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:14,080 Speaker 15: Yeah, quietly, they've been up there statistically as well. You 999 00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:16,520 Speaker 15: look at what they've done on defense and an offense, 1000 00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:18,600 Speaker 15: and I agree. You know, look, Raheem Morris, we know 1001 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:20,360 Speaker 15: is a very underrated coach in the NFL, and I 1002 00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:22,799 Speaker 15: don't know why he hasn't gotten a second shot at. 1003 00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:23,439 Speaker 2: Being a head coach. 1004 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 15: But they've been very sound on what they've done, and 1005 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:29,120 Speaker 15: really they've only had a couple losses there where you say, man, 1006 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:31,680 Speaker 15: things have broken right like that Niners game a seven 1007 00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 15: point loss, that Bengals game a three point loss. He's 1008 00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 15: kept them close to some teams that have a lot 1009 00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:39,120 Speaker 15: of firepower, and it speaks to what he's done there. 1010 00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 15: But I'll say McVeigh, Sean mcvaigh's in that same category. 1011 00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:45,000 Speaker 15: I thought he was great when he had all the stars, 1012 00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:46,400 Speaker 15: but you look at what he's done with the Pooka 1013 00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:49,040 Speaker 15: and Nakuas and the Kien Williams and making that work. 1014 00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 15: Watching them play last week, we were there Steve against 1015 00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:54,080 Speaker 15: Philadelphia and that was a tight game for a long time, 1016 00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:55,960 Speaker 15: and I thought, man, this is how is this happening? 1017 00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:58,560 Speaker 2: And it speaks to they what they're doing with that 1018 00:44:58,680 --> 00:44:59,640 Speaker 2: coaching staff. 1019 00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:01,799 Speaker 4: Real quick, Jp, and you mentioned it, I think it's 1020 00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:02,839 Speaker 4: real quick. 1021 00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:06,160 Speaker 3: Their upcoming run of games, Jeff, they've got five very 1022 00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:08,520 Speaker 3: winnable games right now.

He goes for to kick the 1119 00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:10,560 Speaker 3: field goal and get within a touchdown so you don't 1120 00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:13,480 Speaker 3: have to put pressure on to make a two point conversion. 1121 00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:17,000 Speaker 3: Later next possession, Desien Ritter throws a pick what when 1122 00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:19,600 Speaker 3: they were threatening to go in. Then they fail on 1123 00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:22,280 Speaker 3: a fourth down and then as they're driving to score again, 1124 00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:24,560 Speaker 3: they can't get in and out of the huddle, they're 1125 00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:26,759 Speaker 3: having to burn time out so they don't get delay 1126 00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:29,959 Speaker 3: of games, and then they throw another pick. 1127 00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:31,240 Speaker 4: It was a disaster. 1128 00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:34,239 Speaker 3: We talked to all the show about teams that opportunities 1129 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:38,279 Speaker 3: to win. They had multiple opportunities to win, and they 1130 00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:41,399 Speaker 3: just reinforced the pain. 1131 00:49:41,560 --> 00:49:44,000 Speaker 4: All right, JP, we're gonna come back. 1132 00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:47,480 Speaker 2: This is my Arthur Smith.
