1
00:00:06,413 --> 00:00:08,933
Speaker 1: NFL Covers Zero with Matt Jones and Drew Franklin is

2
00:00:08,933 --> 00:00:21,293
Speaker 1: a production of the NFL and iHeart Podcast. It's episode

3
00:00:21,332 --> 00:00:25,453
Speaker 1: one of the NFL Cover zero podcast. I am Matt

4
00:00:25,613 --> 00:00:29,453
Speaker 1: Jones and joining me is Drew Franklin sitting over there,

5
00:00:29,773 --> 00:00:32,493
Speaker 1: well actually directly in front of me, Drew, with this

6
00:00:32,573 --> 00:00:35,773
Speaker 1: is our first episode. I hope you're excited, very excited.

7
00:00:35,893 --> 00:00:38,173
Speaker 2: Just right now, I'm looking at the NFL logo behind

8
00:00:38,173 --> 00:00:40,613
Speaker 2: your head and it kind of feels surreal that we're

9
00:00:40,613 --> 00:00:41,293
Speaker 2: able to do this.

10
00:00:41,493 --> 00:00:44,253
Speaker 1: Yeah, So for people who are listening for the first time,

11
00:00:44,333 --> 00:00:48,333
Speaker 1: Drew and I've worked together for seventeen years and we

12
00:00:48,373 --> 00:00:52,213
Speaker 1: are big sports fans, and we have thought for a

13
00:00:52,253 --> 00:00:55,173
Speaker 1: long time the NFL is one of the most fun sports.

14
00:00:55,253 --> 00:00:59,253
Speaker 1: But sometimes the podcasts take it very seriously, and we're

15
00:00:59,373 --> 00:01:01,333
Speaker 1: like a lot of fans. We just enjoy watching the

16
00:01:01,373 --> 00:01:03,493
Speaker 1: games and having a good time. And so what this

17
00:01:03,613 --> 00:01:06,333
Speaker 1: podcast is going to do is cover the NFL well,

18
00:01:07,133 --> 00:01:09,333
Speaker 1: you know, I won't say from a non serious way,

19
00:01:09,373 --> 00:01:10,933
Speaker 1: but just as a fan, we don't do We're not

20
00:01:10,932 --> 00:01:12,893
Speaker 1: gonna do a lot of x's and o's. We're just

21
00:01:12,932 --> 00:01:15,973
Speaker 1: gonna be like two guys, you know, sitting and talking

22
00:01:16,012 --> 00:01:17,973
Speaker 1: about the games, and Drew, I'm looking forward to that.

23
00:01:18,693 --> 00:01:20,773
Speaker 1: You and I do this anyway, so we might as

24
00:01:20,813 --> 00:01:23,013
Speaker 1: well talk about it. We'll have guests on throughout the year.

25
00:01:23,292 --> 00:01:27,812
Speaker 1: We're gonna do shows that we will record right after

26
00:01:27,853 --> 00:01:30,013
Speaker 1: the last game on Sunday, so when you wake up

27
00:01:30,012 --> 00:01:31,932
Speaker 1: on Monday morning, it's there.

28
00:01:32,012 --> 00:01:33,053
Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll have a lot of fun.

29
00:01:33,053 --> 00:01:36,773
Speaker 2: We might leave the advanced statistics, all those metrics to

30
00:01:36,813 --> 00:01:39,572
Speaker 2: someone else because we don't know that. Not a big

31
00:01:39,613 --> 00:01:41,813
Speaker 2: player perspective between the two of us, not a lot

32
00:01:41,853 --> 00:01:44,412
Speaker 2: of football in our background, but like many people listening,

33
00:01:44,413 --> 00:01:46,413
Speaker 2: we just love watching the NFL. We'll talk about the

34
00:01:46,452 --> 00:01:48,933
Speaker 2: stories even off the field too, just anything fun happening

35
00:01:48,973 --> 00:01:51,813
Speaker 2: on a Sunday. We'll be taking notes. Totally agree.

36
00:01:51,893 --> 00:01:56,493
Speaker 1: So now, if you've ever, if you're aware of our work,

37
00:01:56,893 --> 00:02:01,773
Speaker 1: we often have technical difficulties and screw ups. This was

38
00:02:01,773 --> 00:02:04,293
Speaker 1: our first one. So this episode you're about to listen to.

39
00:02:04,413 --> 00:02:06,612
Speaker 1: And by the way, if you have not yet, go

40
00:02:06,773 --> 00:02:11,373
Speaker 1: to where you get podcasts or YouTube's or twitters and

41
00:02:11,413 --> 00:02:14,973
Speaker 1: you click on subscribe, because we'd like to have you

42
00:02:15,013 --> 00:02:17,733
Speaker 1: as a subscriber. Go ahead and do that. Now, NFL

43
00:02:17,813 --> 00:02:21,693
Speaker 1: Cover zero, we would appreciate it. We recorded this episode,

44
00:02:22,293 --> 00:02:28,213
Speaker 1: the first one last week, and then all of a sudden,

45
00:02:28,733 --> 00:02:31,253
Speaker 1: as soon as we finished, we got an Adam Schefter

46
00:02:31,373 --> 00:02:34,853
Speaker 1: alert that Micah Parsons had been traded. So when you

47
00:02:34,933 --> 00:02:37,613
Speaker 1: listen to this, I don't want you to think that

48
00:02:37,733 --> 00:02:42,213
Speaker 1: we don't know that Makah Parsons has been trading. We

49
00:02:42,333 --> 00:02:45,813
Speaker 1: do know that allegedly to Green Bay four years, one

50
00:02:45,893 --> 00:02:48,093
Speaker 1: hundred and eighty eight million dollars for two first round

51
00:02:48,093 --> 00:02:51,293
Speaker 1: picks and Kenny Clark. We know that, but we had

52
00:02:51,373 --> 00:02:53,533
Speaker 1: just already done this and we felt good about it,

53
00:02:53,573 --> 00:02:55,133
Speaker 1: and we didn't want to redo the whole thing. We'd

54
00:02:55,133 --> 00:02:59,653
Speaker 1: have to redo our entire premise of the show in

55
00:02:59,813 --> 00:03:02,213
Speaker 1: order to put it in. So we're going to just

56
00:03:02,413 --> 00:03:05,133
Speaker 1: deal with Micah Parsons. But you have to understand that

57
00:03:05,173 --> 00:03:07,893
Speaker 1: when you hear the pack rating and you see the

58
00:03:07,933 --> 00:03:11,813
Speaker 1: Cowboys rating, it would have been different had we known

59
00:03:11,813 --> 00:03:12,573
Speaker 1: about the trade.

60
00:03:12,613 --> 00:03:15,093
Speaker 2: Incredible timing. We were on our way home. I wasn't

61
00:03:15,133 --> 00:03:17,613
Speaker 2: out of the parking garage when the group text got

62
00:03:17,693 --> 00:03:20,493
Speaker 2: hit with the graphic that went around announcing the news,

63
00:03:20,493 --> 00:03:22,893
Speaker 2: So we just missed that about thirty minutes it happens.

64
00:03:22,973 --> 00:03:27,573
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, I sometimes you don't. Sometimes you don't

65
00:03:27,573 --> 00:03:31,853
Speaker 1: get the news earlier. I just recently, you know, heard

66
00:03:31,893 --> 00:03:34,893
Speaker 1: that the Olympics were over. Wasn't aware you've been dealed

67
00:03:34,893 --> 00:03:37,213
Speaker 1: in with football? Well? I just I watch it on

68
00:03:37,333 --> 00:03:39,213
Speaker 1: streaming and I was like, you know, I was just

69
00:03:39,293 --> 00:03:42,773
Speaker 1: getting through all the events. Some bad lagging it as well.

70
00:03:42,893 --> 00:03:46,693
Speaker 1: I'm in Kentucky. Internet's not fast, so so yes, now

71
00:03:47,053 --> 00:03:50,573
Speaker 1: knowing that, we'll start with that. You are a secondary

72
00:03:50,613 --> 00:03:54,533
Speaker 1: Cowboys fan. Are you sad to see Micah gone? I am.

73
00:03:55,893 --> 00:03:57,813
Speaker 2: It's a big pr hit. I mean that city just

74
00:03:57,893 --> 00:04:01,013
Speaker 2: lost Luca. Micah is the other big star in that town.

75
00:04:01,053 --> 00:04:04,693
Speaker 1: You're about to trade JR. Ewing as well for you

76
00:04:04,733 --> 00:04:05,133
Speaker 1: older fum.

77
00:04:05,253 --> 00:04:07,933
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you really leaved in a real rebuild, they

78
00:04:07,973 --> 00:04:09,893
Speaker 2: got the pieces for something here if you make those

79
00:04:09,973 --> 00:04:14,693
Speaker 2: picks work. Have some concerns about the Cowboys making it work,

80
00:04:14,733 --> 00:04:17,133
Speaker 2: since it's been several years since they've made much work there.

81
00:04:17,452 --> 00:04:20,053
Speaker 2: But it's hard to watch Michael Parsons at twenty six

82
00:04:20,133 --> 00:04:22,772
Speaker 2: years years old walk out that door for an NFC contender.

83
00:04:22,853 --> 00:04:25,253
Speaker 1: I did hear this morning he has an F four

84
00:04:26,532 --> 00:04:31,652
Speaker 1: F five vertebrae something I don't know how many f's

85
00:04:31,733 --> 00:04:34,452
Speaker 1: there are in your vertebrae. I feel like four and

86
00:04:34,532 --> 00:04:38,293
Speaker 1: five those are important ones. So hopefully he's okay, But

87
00:04:38,573 --> 00:04:41,493
Speaker 1: but you know, he might miss the first week. Nobody

88
00:04:42,092 --> 00:04:45,573
Speaker 1: knows for sure. But do you think maybe the Packers

89
00:04:45,573 --> 00:04:48,413
Speaker 1: should have done more injury checks with his F four

90
00:04:48,452 --> 00:04:49,853
Speaker 1: and F five springs?

91
00:04:50,253 --> 00:04:52,212
Speaker 2: No, I think they're still going to make out good

92
00:04:52,212 --> 00:04:54,253
Speaker 2: on this as long as they win right away.

93
00:04:54,293 --> 00:04:54,652
Speaker 3: He wouldn't.

94
00:04:54,693 --> 00:04:56,452
Speaker 2: He wasn't cheap on their end. There's gonna be some

95
00:04:56,493 --> 00:04:57,013
Speaker 2: salary cap.

96
00:04:57,133 --> 00:05:02,333
Speaker 1: He'say highest paid player non quarterback. Ever, is you think

97
00:05:02,332 --> 00:05:02,933
Speaker 1: he's worth it?

98
00:05:03,493 --> 00:05:04,013
Speaker 3: Probably?

99
00:05:04,293 --> 00:05:07,013
Speaker 2: I like that he retired his mom for that kind

100
00:05:07,053 --> 00:05:09,293
Speaker 2: of money? Will you retire my mom? And like all

101
00:05:09,332 --> 00:05:10,412
Speaker 2: the moms, I'm.

102
00:05:10,253 --> 00:05:11,852
Speaker 1: Not go ahead and say I feel like his mom already.

103
00:05:12,412 --> 00:05:14,933
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, you're one. He had made a bunch

104
00:05:14,933 --> 00:05:16,373
Speaker 1: of money. I mean his mom had to be at

105
00:05:16,373 --> 00:05:19,732
Speaker 1: some point, like, okay, like four Pro Bowls? Why am

106
00:05:19,772 --> 00:05:22,933
Speaker 1: I still working? You know, you're on the cover of Madden, Like,

107
00:05:23,053 --> 00:05:27,253
Speaker 1: why am I still working? Micah? I've always told my

108
00:05:27,293 --> 00:05:29,573
Speaker 1: mom that if I'd made it in sports, because she'll

109
00:05:29,613 --> 00:05:33,053
Speaker 1: always send me some picture of like Lamar Jackson bought

110
00:05:33,092 --> 00:05:34,772
Speaker 1: his mom a car, and she'll be like in this

111
00:05:34,813 --> 00:05:36,933
Speaker 1: suite and I go, Mom, I would have bought you

112
00:05:37,013 --> 00:05:41,173
Speaker 1: a car too. I wouldn't have accepted it, like, well,

113
00:05:41,532 --> 00:05:45,853
Speaker 1: you know what, it's very nice. So I'm now the Packers.

114
00:05:45,892 --> 00:05:48,133
Speaker 1: Are they a super Bowl favorite? To you? Yeah?

115
00:05:48,173 --> 00:05:51,573
Speaker 2: It's crazy how quickly the change around them. I mean,

116
00:05:51,693 --> 00:05:53,693
Speaker 2: obviously they're in a good spot as it is, but

117
00:05:53,733 --> 00:05:55,253
Speaker 2: it feels like just a few weeks ago, people are

118
00:05:55,293 --> 00:05:57,772
Speaker 2: wondering if Jordan Love has a thumb, if they're gonna

119
00:05:57,772 --> 00:05:59,053
Speaker 2: be okay, And suddenly.

120
00:05:58,933 --> 00:06:01,413
Speaker 1: Love's good to go. They were wondering if he hadn't details.

121
00:06:01,452 --> 00:06:02,812
Speaker 3: I asked two of them, Oh, they're healthy.

122
00:06:03,532 --> 00:06:05,693
Speaker 2: But you go from just worrying about that wondering if

123
00:06:05,733 --> 00:06:07,853
Speaker 2: you can reap repeats the magic from last year. It's

124
00:06:07,853 --> 00:06:09,412
Speaker 2: all of a sudden you have the best pass rusher

125
00:06:09,452 --> 00:06:10,452
Speaker 2: in the NFL on your team.

126
00:06:10,532 --> 00:06:15,452
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you know it does change. The NFC North,

127
00:06:15,493 --> 00:06:18,493
Speaker 1: which was maybe the best division anyway, gets even better.

128
00:06:19,813 --> 00:06:22,452
Speaker 1: I'm always hesitant to spend that much money on a

129
00:06:22,452 --> 00:06:26,053
Speaker 1: non quarterback. To me players, I'm not gonna say they're fungible.

130
00:06:26,133 --> 00:06:28,772
Speaker 1: They're not. Michael Parsons is huge, but I don't know

131
00:06:28,813 --> 00:06:32,332
Speaker 1: if if one player changes the entire course of your team,

132
00:06:32,972 --> 00:06:35,972
Speaker 1: unless it's a quarterback, but we will find out. But

133
00:06:36,493 --> 00:06:40,973
Speaker 1: I love watching Dallas make another ridiculous decision. I love

134
00:06:41,053 --> 00:06:44,693
Speaker 1: watching Jerry Jones try to explain it in a press conference.

135
00:06:45,493 --> 00:06:47,813
Speaker 1: If you could have picked the worst time he could

136
00:06:47,813 --> 00:06:49,773
Speaker 1: have made this deal, it would have been now. If

137
00:06:49,772 --> 00:06:51,772
Speaker 1: you were to say, what was the least amount of

138
00:06:51,853 --> 00:06:56,612
Speaker 1: leverage he had last year before the draft this year

139
00:06:56,652 --> 00:06:58,332
Speaker 1: after the season, if you were to put it on

140
00:06:58,373 --> 00:07:02,173
Speaker 1: a timeline, I think he traded it literally the worst

141
00:07:02,212 --> 00:07:05,493
Speaker 1: moment he had leverage. Way to go, Jerry, I'd love

142
00:07:05,532 --> 00:07:06,133
Speaker 1: to play poker.

143
00:07:06,693 --> 00:07:09,813
Speaker 2: And also with the timing, my wife a diehard Cowboys fan.

144
00:07:09,853 --> 00:07:13,052
Speaker 2: We were about two episodes into the new Netflix documentary

145
00:07:13,173 --> 00:07:16,052
Speaker 2: on the Cowboys, and after the Mica news, she's out, like,

146
00:07:16,133 --> 00:07:17,172
Speaker 2: I can't watch the rest of this.

147
00:07:17,253 --> 00:07:17,812
Speaker 3: I'm not ready.

148
00:07:17,853 --> 00:07:20,853
Speaker 1: I'm too hurt. Yeah. Well, anyway, that's the way it goes.

149
00:07:20,893 --> 00:07:23,292
Speaker 1: So what you're gonna hear from now on is the

150
00:07:23,333 --> 00:07:28,133
Speaker 1: podcast we did. We basically ranked all the teams and watchability.

151
00:07:28,573 --> 00:07:31,453
Speaker 1: We decided if we were going to watch if a

152
00:07:31,453 --> 00:07:34,172
Speaker 1: team was on, where would we rank in terms of

153
00:07:34,173 --> 00:07:35,693
Speaker 1: how we would want to watch them? Would you want

154
00:07:35,733 --> 00:07:38,492
Speaker 1: to watch them more than any other team or less

155
00:07:38,533 --> 00:07:43,093
Speaker 1: than any other team? Again, if we'd known about Micah Dallas,

156
00:07:43,093 --> 00:07:46,292
Speaker 1: probably lower, Green Bay higher. But that's the way it goes.

157
00:07:46,733 --> 00:07:48,493
Speaker 1: But we did want you to know we do know

158
00:07:48,533 --> 00:07:52,172
Speaker 1: about Micah, and we wish them both the best of luck. Now,

159
00:07:52,413 --> 00:07:54,933
Speaker 1: Billy is our producer. I want to show something. Hen

160
00:07:55,013 --> 00:07:57,773
Speaker 1: me that book there, Bill, okay, so you know, to prepare.

161
00:07:58,493 --> 00:07:59,213
Speaker 1: I bought a book.

162
00:07:59,293 --> 00:08:01,333
Speaker 2: Oh my, that's not any book, that's a phone book.

163
00:08:01,453 --> 00:08:03,253
Speaker 1: First of all, this is I'm holding it up to

164
00:08:03,293 --> 00:08:07,453
Speaker 1: the camera here. This is the Sharp Football Analysis. Some

165
00:08:07,493 --> 00:08:08,372
Speaker 1: guy named Warren.

166
00:08:08,893 --> 00:08:11,013
Speaker 2: I follow Warren Warren's Sharp.

167
00:08:11,213 --> 00:08:14,252
Speaker 1: Now I don't know who Warren Sharp is, but Warren Sharp,

168
00:08:14,373 --> 00:08:16,653
Speaker 1: I think, I think you can say really likes the football.

169
00:08:16,693 --> 00:08:18,693
Speaker 1: If you look on the screen for those of you,

170
00:08:18,693 --> 00:08:21,373
Speaker 1: you know you on YouTube, you'll see the pages are

171
00:08:21,413 --> 00:08:24,693
Speaker 1: color coded. There are lots of numbers. And I bought

172
00:08:24,733 --> 00:08:26,933
Speaker 1: it because somebody told me if you read the Sharp

173
00:08:26,933 --> 00:08:30,333
Speaker 1: Football Preview, you'll have everything you need to know. So

174
00:08:30,373 --> 00:08:32,253
Speaker 1: I bought it and thought, okay, and then I opened that.

175
00:08:32,493 --> 00:08:36,573
Speaker 1: I'm not reading that, all right, I'm not reading that.

176
00:08:36,693 --> 00:08:39,533
Speaker 1: There's a lot of stuff in here. I'm not reading

177
00:08:39,573 --> 00:08:43,173
Speaker 1: all that, but I am mesmerized by how beautiful the

178
00:08:43,253 --> 00:08:46,253
Speaker 1: color is. Guess how much this book costs me? Oh, guy,

179
00:08:46,373 --> 00:08:48,333
Speaker 1: I can just tell by the printing job on. That

180
00:08:48,373 --> 00:08:49,893
Speaker 1: alone had to have been outrageous. Honest.

181
00:08:50,493 --> 00:08:53,053
Speaker 2: Hold on, it's about as thick as I'd say the Columbus,

182
00:08:53,093 --> 00:08:56,093
Speaker 2: Ohio phone book forty five dollars.

183
00:08:56,173 --> 00:09:00,133
Speaker 1: This is like seventy four dollars. That's how much this

184
00:09:00,213 --> 00:09:00,653
Speaker 1: book was.

185
00:09:02,253 --> 00:09:03,973
Speaker 2: Look what I know this is not ind visual, but

186
00:09:04,013 --> 00:09:05,653
Speaker 2: I am holding a piece of paper that I got

187
00:09:05,653 --> 00:09:08,253
Speaker 2: from the eye lobby with a pen I borrowed from

188
00:09:08,253 --> 00:09:11,813
Speaker 2: a salesperson, and I jotted some notes down, so seventy.

189
00:09:11,133 --> 00:09:13,773
Speaker 1: Four pages or seventy four dollars, and I just was like,

190
00:09:13,773 --> 00:09:15,413
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna read this. So I gave it to Billy,

191
00:09:15,733 --> 00:09:18,773
Speaker 1: and I said, Billy, as we go through teams, I

192
00:09:18,813 --> 00:09:20,293
Speaker 1: want you to give me a fact. I don't want

193
00:09:20,293 --> 00:09:22,093
Speaker 1: to feel like I wasted this seventy four dollars. Warren

194
00:09:22,133 --> 00:09:23,053
Speaker 1: Sharp put a lot of time.

195
00:09:23,413 --> 00:09:25,613
Speaker 2: He's got a great mustache too, by the way we do. Yeah,

196
00:09:25,613 --> 00:09:27,053
Speaker 2: there's probably a lot of money we'll go to just

197
00:09:27,093 --> 00:09:28,373
Speaker 2: keeping that thing looking good.

198
00:09:29,613 --> 00:09:32,253
Speaker 1: Mustache wax. That GE's where a lot of the money goes.

199
00:09:32,653 --> 00:09:35,493
Speaker 1: So I want to feel like Warren did his work

200
00:09:35,533 --> 00:09:37,173
Speaker 1: for good reason, and I want to feel like I

201
00:09:37,173 --> 00:09:39,613
Speaker 1: didn't waste seventy four dollars. So I asked Billy to

202
00:09:40,173 --> 00:09:43,453
Speaker 1: as we go through teams, give me one fact from

203
00:09:43,493 --> 00:09:46,413
Speaker 1: Warren for each team. Billy, are you prepared to do that?

204
00:09:46,533 --> 00:09:48,933
Speaker 3: Well, you gave me this assignment thirty minutes ago, so

205
00:09:48,973 --> 00:09:51,653
Speaker 3: we're we're about halfway through the teams and the other

206
00:09:51,693 --> 00:09:52,893
Speaker 3: half we will do it on the fly.

207
00:09:53,173 --> 00:09:56,293
Speaker 1: You've got this so most you know you can do

208
00:09:56,413 --> 00:09:59,133
Speaker 1: like a preview. Here's what I want to do. I

209
00:09:59,293 --> 00:10:01,253
Speaker 1: enjoy watching the games. I don't know about you, Drew.

210
00:10:01,333 --> 00:10:05,133
Speaker 1: When I see the schedule, sometimes I think that team

211
00:10:05,333 --> 00:10:07,773
Speaker 1: is going to be fun to watk and sometimes I

212
00:10:07,813 --> 00:10:12,093
Speaker 1: think I can't. I can't do this right. It's Sunday

213
00:10:12,173 --> 00:10:15,933
Speaker 1: Night football? Are you telling me it's the Saints again? Like,

214
00:10:16,453 --> 00:10:17,093
Speaker 1: I can't do it.

215
00:10:17,093 --> 00:10:19,053
Speaker 2: Occasionally there will be a bad matchup that will make

216
00:10:19,053 --> 00:10:20,613
Speaker 2: me watch something on Netflix.

217
00:10:20,693 --> 00:10:23,373
Speaker 1: It's probably more Thursday night football. That's where you get it,

218
00:10:23,693 --> 00:10:26,813
Speaker 1: those Thursday night games. And it's like I love kirkharb Street,

219
00:10:27,293 --> 00:10:31,133
Speaker 1: but can I do this again? So we decided we

220
00:10:31,133 --> 00:10:33,973
Speaker 1: were going to rank the thirty two teams one to

221
00:10:34,053 --> 00:10:38,853
Speaker 1: thirty two just in watchability. This is my if the

222
00:10:38,933 --> 00:10:43,093
Speaker 1: team is on my screen, do I want to watch them?

223
00:10:43,413 --> 00:10:44,973
Speaker 1: And do? I think There's a lot of factors that

224
00:10:45,013 --> 00:10:47,653
Speaker 1: go into this. One is how good are they right?

225
00:10:47,693 --> 00:10:50,813
Speaker 1: Probably the main factor. Two do they have like a

226
00:10:50,853 --> 00:10:55,093
Speaker 1: player or a style that's interesting? Then it might be

227
00:10:55,813 --> 00:10:59,613
Speaker 1: you know, are there storylines with them? What is their

228
00:10:59,613 --> 00:11:03,933
Speaker 1: home field advantage? Like I would even go visually, what

229
00:11:03,973 --> 00:11:07,213
Speaker 1: does it look like to watch a game? Like when

230
00:11:07,293 --> 00:11:10,973
Speaker 1: Minnesota's college team plays, they seem to be playing in

231
00:11:11,013 --> 00:11:14,253
Speaker 1: a dungeon, and so I think the combination of the

232
00:11:14,253 --> 00:11:16,333
Speaker 1: color of their uniforms and all that I cannot watch

233
00:11:16,413 --> 00:11:20,293
Speaker 1: a Golden Gopher football game. We have ranked. You and

234
00:11:20,333 --> 00:11:22,213
Speaker 1: I each have a list of our top of our

235
00:11:22,813 --> 00:11:25,693
Speaker 1: NFL teams one to thirty two, and we're gonna do

236
00:11:25,973 --> 00:11:28,653
Speaker 1: a draft. I'll pick one, you'll pick one, and at

237
00:11:28,653 --> 00:11:33,013
Speaker 1: the end we will have our thirty two team official

238
00:11:33,093 --> 00:11:35,813
Speaker 1: ranking of how watchable these teams are. I like this.

239
00:11:36,453 --> 00:11:39,053
Speaker 2: There's some teams that like I hate watch We're all

240
00:11:39,053 --> 00:11:39,852
Speaker 2: familiar with the team.

241
00:11:39,893 --> 00:11:40,613
Speaker 1: You don't like to do that.

242
00:11:40,653 --> 00:11:42,893
Speaker 2: But yes, I'm gonna watch them just so that they

243
00:11:43,093 --> 00:11:45,093
Speaker 2: I can root for them to lose. So I consider

244
00:11:45,213 --> 00:11:47,293
Speaker 2: that another thing. You know in the NFL, it's all

245
00:11:47,293 --> 00:11:49,933
Speaker 2: these beautiful stadiums. We don't get the Minnesota domes, but

246
00:11:50,053 --> 00:11:52,533
Speaker 2: places with potential snow will give you a little bonus

247
00:11:52,533 --> 00:11:54,413
Speaker 2: points there if there's a chance I'm gonna see a

248
00:11:54,453 --> 00:11:54,933
Speaker 2: snow game.

249
00:11:54,973 --> 00:11:56,493
Speaker 3: So I factored that in a little bit to night.

250
00:11:56,533 --> 00:12:00,493
Speaker 1: I didn't go do the snow weather. But that's actually

251
00:12:00,533 --> 00:12:02,852
Speaker 1: good because are you more likely to watch a game

252
00:12:02,893 --> 00:12:03,733
Speaker 1: when it's snows. Oh?

253
00:12:03,773 --> 00:12:04,373
Speaker 3: Absolutely.

254
00:12:04,773 --> 00:12:06,533
Speaker 2: I will turn off my favorite team to watch the

255
00:12:06,573 --> 00:12:07,413
Speaker 2: sloppy snow game.

256
00:12:07,493 --> 00:12:10,053
Speaker 1: I'm exactly like that. So we have it. We'll go

257
00:12:10,213 --> 00:12:14,893
Speaker 1: back and forth. I'll tell you what, how many fingers

258
00:12:14,893 --> 00:12:16,093
Speaker 1: am I holding up? One or two?

259
00:12:17,813 --> 00:12:19,852
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say too, all right, it was two.

260
00:12:19,973 --> 00:12:21,933
Speaker 1: So I'm going you have the first pick, all right,

261
00:12:21,973 --> 00:12:24,013
Speaker 1: and you are picking for the for the group. What

262
00:12:24,133 --> 00:12:26,613
Speaker 1: is the most watchable team in the NFL to you?

263
00:12:26,933 --> 00:12:29,373
Speaker 2: Well, it is kind of lame to answer this way,

264
00:12:29,413 --> 00:12:31,133
Speaker 2: but it is the first pick. It's going to be

265
00:12:31,173 --> 00:12:34,173
Speaker 2: a popular pick. I'm going with the New Hollywood, Kansas

266
00:12:34,253 --> 00:12:37,173
Speaker 2: City with the recent news this week their their brand

267
00:12:37,293 --> 00:12:39,693
Speaker 2: just got even bigger with now Taylor will be moving

268
00:12:39,733 --> 00:12:43,053
Speaker 2: into Kansas City. Then, of course we have the Mahomes magic,

269
00:12:43,493 --> 00:12:46,293
Speaker 2: all the improbable finishes. Anytime they play the you know,

270
00:12:46,373 --> 00:12:48,653
Speaker 2: the Ravens, the Bills, the Bengals, it seems to come

271
00:12:48,693 --> 00:12:51,333
Speaker 2: down to the wire. So, even though they're not a

272
00:12:51,373 --> 00:12:53,853
Speaker 2: team I particularly care for, it's hard to not watch

273
00:12:53,893 --> 00:12:55,573
Speaker 2: a Chiefs game when they're on TV. And now you've

274
00:12:55,573 --> 00:12:56,413
Speaker 2: added the Swifties.

275
00:12:56,493 --> 00:12:58,413
Speaker 1: Yeah, I have Chiefs number two, but I'll take them

276
00:12:58,413 --> 00:13:00,213
Speaker 1: at number one. I think it was close, whether it

277
00:13:00,253 --> 00:13:03,053
Speaker 1: was one or two, all right, it's a lot of factors.

278
00:13:03,093 --> 00:13:06,733
Speaker 1: One I think the most important thing. They're good. Especially

279
00:13:06,813 --> 00:13:09,293
Speaker 1: in recent years, it seems like they are in a

280
00:13:09,373 --> 00:13:12,133
Speaker 1: million close games because they don't they don't blow teams out.

281
00:13:12,173 --> 00:13:13,853
Speaker 1: I think what last year they were eleven to one

282
00:13:13,973 --> 00:13:16,413
Speaker 1: or something in one score game. So it always comes

283
00:13:16,453 --> 00:13:18,813
Speaker 1: down to the end. Mahomes usually ends up with the ball,

284
00:13:19,213 --> 00:13:21,053
Speaker 1: has a chance to do it. Mahomes is fun to watch.

285
00:13:21,293 --> 00:13:24,133
Speaker 1: You know, a little bit of a dad bod, a

286
00:13:24,173 --> 00:13:28,133
Speaker 1: little bit dorky, but crazy good. You know, Travis Kelcey

287
00:13:28,973 --> 00:13:32,773
Speaker 1: used to think Travis Kelsey was goober. Now he's America's sweetheart.

288
00:13:32,893 --> 00:13:35,413
Speaker 1: I kind of like him. He's got the mustache, he's kind,

289
00:13:35,453 --> 00:13:38,093
Speaker 1: he seems like he's he's kind of an idiot, but

290
00:13:38,213 --> 00:13:42,653
Speaker 1: like in the Lovable We All Have, he's a lovable idiot, right,

291
00:13:43,133 --> 00:13:47,373
Speaker 1: Andy Reid mustache rotun? How are you not gonna like

292
00:13:47,413 --> 00:13:49,053
Speaker 1: a row Ton guy with a mustache? Looks like a

293
00:13:49,053 --> 00:13:53,213
Speaker 1: Philadelphia cop, but a good one. He's not corrupt, right,

294
00:13:53,253 --> 00:13:56,533
Speaker 1: not one that's being investigated. More like a school crossing guard.

295
00:13:56,693 --> 00:14:01,333
Speaker 1: He looks like he looks like Billy laugh On, a

296
00:14:01,493 --> 00:14:04,333
Speaker 1: very nice school crossing guard. Then you throw in the

297
00:14:04,413 --> 00:14:08,013
Speaker 1: chief stadium right. That looks fun.

298
00:14:08,373 --> 00:14:10,333
Speaker 3: I've been. It's as good as it gets.

299
00:14:10,533 --> 00:14:15,813
Speaker 1: Mike Snow. Mike Snow, Now you mentioned Kansas City. We've

300
00:14:15,813 --> 00:14:19,693
Speaker 1: been in Kansas City. Good barbecue, decent stuff going on.

301
00:14:20,173 --> 00:14:21,973
Speaker 1: But it's crazy to me to think that Taylor Swift

302
00:14:22,093 --> 00:14:25,453
Speaker 1: kind of lives there, you know. I mean she basically

303
00:14:25,533 --> 00:14:27,693
Speaker 1: has to live there with Travis Kelsey and they are

304
00:14:27,693 --> 00:14:30,573
Speaker 1: maybe the two most famous people in America and they

305
00:14:30,573 --> 00:14:32,973
Speaker 1: are in Kansas City. Do you think that's strange?

306
00:14:33,013 --> 00:14:35,813
Speaker 2: That's why my pick I called it the New Hollywood. Honestly,

307
00:14:35,893 --> 00:14:38,333
Speaker 2: before this engagement, I probably would have had them two

308
00:14:38,413 --> 00:14:41,653
Speaker 2: or three. But I think America is gonna just that.

309
00:14:41,733 --> 00:14:43,733
Speaker 2: This is now our our home base. This is our

310
00:14:43,773 --> 00:14:46,493
Speaker 2: center point of America. Is Kansas City. I'm not even

311
00:14:46,493 --> 00:14:48,773
Speaker 2: sure if it's in Missouri or Kansas, but we'll think

312
00:14:48,813 --> 00:14:50,053
Speaker 2: it's in Missouri.

313
00:14:50,133 --> 00:14:52,133
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that is now. It is now the celebrity

314
00:14:52,133 --> 00:14:54,333
Speaker 1: hot bed. TV is gonna be games. Do you think

315
00:14:54,373 --> 00:14:57,173
Speaker 1: they just go to like regular restaurants in Kansas City? Well,

316
00:14:57,533 --> 00:14:59,413
Speaker 1: they just go to I mean, I don't know what

317
00:14:59,453 --> 00:15:01,053
Speaker 1: the good places are there. Well, it just opened.

318
00:15:01,093 --> 00:15:04,093
Speaker 2: It's the fifteen eighty seven Steakhouse by Travis Kelcey.

319
00:15:03,893 --> 00:15:07,173
Speaker 1: And Pat Mahomes. Oh they have it just opened.

320
00:15:07,333 --> 00:15:10,013
Speaker 2: Yeah, they'll she'll have her own room.

321
00:15:10,533 --> 00:15:12,293
Speaker 1: Why is it fifteen? Oh the numbers?

322
00:15:12,413 --> 00:15:14,013
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah yeah, but it's it's supposed to be a

323
00:15:14,053 --> 00:15:16,733
Speaker 2: big deal, literally just opening right now. So okay, so

324
00:15:16,773 --> 00:15:18,133
Speaker 2: I'd expect you'd be there a lot.

325
00:15:18,333 --> 00:15:20,133
Speaker 1: I also, I mean I kind of liked the Chiefs

326
00:15:20,133 --> 00:15:24,053
Speaker 1: before because old Joe Montana played there, you know, when

327
00:15:24,053 --> 00:15:26,333
Speaker 1: he was kind of washed up. They had a safety

328
00:15:26,573 --> 00:15:29,133
Speaker 1: who had a rap song that I could sing. Billy

329
00:15:29,253 --> 00:15:34,213
Speaker 1: right now, do you remember Eric Barry of course, Eric Barry,

330
00:15:35,093 --> 00:15:38,373
Speaker 1: Eric Barry, You're so scared. I don't know if that's

331
00:15:38,413 --> 00:15:41,773
Speaker 1: exactly I don't remember, but you could look it up.

332
00:15:41,933 --> 00:15:46,053
Speaker 1: He had a song called Eric Barry and I loved it,

333
00:15:46,333 --> 00:15:49,453
Speaker 1: and so you know, I had some Chiefs positivity before that. Oh.

334
00:15:49,893 --> 00:15:52,293
Speaker 2: I had a friend who had family in Kansas City

335
00:15:52,453 --> 00:15:54,653
Speaker 2: when we were in middle school. About once a year

336
00:15:54,653 --> 00:15:55,973
Speaker 2: we'd go and I'd get to go to Chiefs game.

337
00:15:55,973 --> 00:15:58,173
Speaker 2: There were photos of me where I'm fully painted red

338
00:15:58,173 --> 00:15:59,813
Speaker 2: and yellow, like I was all in there for a

339
00:15:59,813 --> 00:16:02,213
Speaker 2: little while. I wouldn't never call him my favorite, but

340
00:16:02,213 --> 00:16:03,453
Speaker 2: I've had a plenty of trips.

341
00:16:03,333 --> 00:16:04,413
Speaker 3: Arrowhead that were a wild time.

342
00:16:04,453 --> 00:16:07,053
Speaker 1: I don't know if you want those photos out different time.

343
00:16:07,853 --> 00:16:09,413
Speaker 1: So I think the Chiefs are a pretty good number

344
00:16:09,453 --> 00:16:11,813
Speaker 1: one pick. Feels like they play at four thirty with

345
00:16:11,973 --> 00:16:14,813
Speaker 1: Jim Nantz and Tony Romo almost every week. So I

346
00:16:14,813 --> 00:16:17,533
Speaker 1: agree with that. My number one team is I think

347
00:16:17,573 --> 00:16:20,093
Speaker 1: most people would put here, and so it'll be number

348
00:16:20,093 --> 00:16:23,493
Speaker 1: two for us as the Bills. I think again, same

349
00:16:23,573 --> 00:16:28,293
Speaker 1: kind of thing. Really good. Josh Allen is maybe the

350
00:16:28,333 --> 00:16:31,493
Speaker 1: most exciting player to watch. He bounces off people, but

351
00:16:31,573 --> 00:16:33,533
Speaker 1: really a lot of it's about the fans. Right, it

352
00:16:33,573 --> 00:16:36,573
Speaker 1: gets dark in Buffalo at two thirty in the afternoon,

353
00:16:36,893 --> 00:16:39,693
Speaker 1: so the game is it's always dark there, no matter what.

354
00:16:40,093 --> 00:16:43,333
Speaker 1: It's snowing. You throw people through tables, and then there's

355
00:16:43,333 --> 00:16:45,653
Speaker 1: just the history of they've never won. They find a

356
00:16:45,653 --> 00:16:49,413
Speaker 1: way to collapse at the end. They look sad. I

357
00:16:49,413 --> 00:16:51,373
Speaker 1: don't think anybody would say there's anywhere that looks to

358
00:16:51,373 --> 00:16:53,373
Speaker 1: be more fun. You know, that's a team that they

359
00:16:53,413 --> 00:16:56,453
Speaker 1: almost lost the team a couple different times in their history.

360
00:16:56,613 --> 00:16:58,533
Speaker 1: So the Bills for me pretty strong. Number two.

361
00:16:58,573 --> 00:17:01,693
Speaker 2: Yeah, button Bills are number two for me. Also, like

362
00:17:01,773 --> 00:17:04,853
Speaker 2: if you don't enjoy the current Bills era with the Mafia,

363
00:17:04,933 --> 00:17:06,813
Speaker 2: Josh Allen, you just have hate your heart. I don't

364
00:17:06,853 --> 00:17:08,773
Speaker 2: care if they're you got your favorite team. They're a

365
00:17:08,812 --> 00:17:13,013
Speaker 2: likable group. Even like to bring up twifties again, when

366
00:17:13,093 --> 00:17:14,933
Speaker 2: Jason Kelsey went to a game of few years ago,

367
00:17:15,413 --> 00:17:17,533
Speaker 2: they're just showing him in the crowd with his shirt off.

368
00:17:17,573 --> 00:17:19,773
Speaker 2: The Bills games maybe more than any other team in

369
00:17:19,773 --> 00:17:22,253
Speaker 2: the NFL. It's an experience that's fun to watch from afar.

370
00:17:22,493 --> 00:17:24,973
Speaker 1: By the way, I already forgot part of the show,

371
00:17:25,053 --> 00:17:27,133
Speaker 1: which is I was supposed to go to Billy for

372
00:17:27,213 --> 00:17:29,813
Speaker 1: a fun fact for each team from Warren Sharp. Hey,

373
00:17:29,813 --> 00:17:34,173
Speaker 1: we first first episode, really we got through one team

374
00:17:34,253 --> 00:17:36,292
Speaker 1: and I had already forgotten to go to Billy. So

375
00:17:36,373 --> 00:17:38,693
Speaker 1: let me go back for a second, go to the Chiefs.

376
00:17:39,013 --> 00:17:41,253
Speaker 1: What was Warren Sharp's fun Chiefs back?

377
00:17:41,453 --> 00:17:43,213
Speaker 3: Well, the Chiefs may be fun to watch, but they

378
00:17:43,253 --> 00:17:46,052
Speaker 3: don't throw the ball down field. It's out of the

379
00:17:46,093 --> 00:17:49,413
Speaker 3: one hundred and ninety two team seasons since twenty nineteen,

380
00:17:49,533 --> 00:17:52,653
Speaker 3: the twenty twenty four Kansas City Chiefs ranked one eighty

381
00:17:52,773 --> 00:17:56,532
Speaker 3: nine and rate of passes thrown fifteen plus air yards.

382
00:17:56,533 --> 00:17:59,493
Speaker 3: So Patrick Mahomes, he's so great he done to throw

383
00:17:59,573 --> 00:18:00,973
Speaker 3: the ball past fifteen yards.

384
00:18:01,013 --> 00:18:03,773
Speaker 1: Okay, explain to me, what's your number? How many years

385
00:18:03,813 --> 00:18:05,373
Speaker 1: of that football.

386
00:18:04,973 --> 00:18:08,693
Speaker 3: Since twenty nineteen? There s one and ninety two individual

387
00:18:08,853 --> 00:18:09,613
Speaker 3: team seasons.

388
00:18:09,613 --> 00:18:11,093
Speaker 1: Okay, and it came in one hundred and eighty nine.

389
00:18:11,093 --> 00:18:12,733
Speaker 3: Hundred and eighty nine out of one ninety two.

390
00:18:12,813 --> 00:18:14,693
Speaker 1: It is a little surprising. And that's partially why I

391
00:18:14,733 --> 00:18:16,413
Speaker 1: think they're gonna be better this year, because they're gonna

392
00:18:16,413 --> 00:18:18,213
Speaker 1: have guys to throw down the field. But it's amazing.

393
00:18:18,613 --> 00:18:22,973
Speaker 1: He's considered universally the best quarterback and the third fourth

394
00:18:23,053 --> 00:18:25,933
Speaker 1: worst team in the last what six years to throw

395
00:18:25,973 --> 00:18:27,333
Speaker 1: the ball down the field, that's impressible.

396
00:18:27,333 --> 00:18:29,093
Speaker 2: Ice, Well, you got Kills. You don't throw too far,

397
00:18:29,253 --> 00:18:31,292
Speaker 2: but they do throw it far. If it's fourth and

398
00:18:31,413 --> 00:18:33,093
Speaker 2: thirty four in the games on the line they get

399
00:18:33,093 --> 00:18:34,413
Speaker 2: a completion, that's when they go along.

400
00:18:34,493 --> 00:18:36,693
Speaker 1: That's definitely true. All right, So now number two give

401
00:18:36,733 --> 00:18:37,893
Speaker 1: me a Buffalo Bills fac.

402
00:18:37,813 --> 00:18:39,572
Speaker 3: Oh, it's all about getting over the hump in the

403
00:18:39,573 --> 00:18:42,973
Speaker 3: playoffs for the Bills. The Bills average over twenty four

404
00:18:43,013 --> 00:18:46,613
Speaker 3: points per game in the playoff losses they've had over

405
00:18:46,653 --> 00:18:50,493
Speaker 3: the last five years. Conversely, the opponents score on average

406
00:18:50,653 --> 00:18:53,332
Speaker 3: thirty three points in the games that the Bills have

407
00:18:53,453 --> 00:18:54,613
Speaker 3: lost in the playoffs.

408
00:18:55,093 --> 00:18:57,573
Speaker 1: So they scored nine less points in the play Yeah,

409
00:18:57,613 --> 00:19:00,493
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say to Warren, I think that stat's better

410
00:19:00,653 --> 00:19:03,573
Speaker 1: if it's flipped. I mean, I kind of would have

411
00:19:03,653 --> 00:19:08,733
Speaker 1: assumed that they score less points in the teams when

412
00:19:08,733 --> 00:19:10,653
Speaker 1: they lose in the place. Am I supposed to be

413
00:19:10,653 --> 00:19:11,973
Speaker 1: surprised by that stat?

414
00:19:12,253 --> 00:19:13,813
Speaker 3: Maybe by how many points they score?

415
00:19:13,893 --> 00:19:16,253
Speaker 1: And so they scored nine points less than the other.

416
00:19:16,093 --> 00:19:19,213
Speaker 3: Team, that's right, in the playoffs, Okay, in their losses.

417
00:19:19,613 --> 00:19:21,453
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say. I mean, that's not a shocking

418
00:19:21,893 --> 00:19:24,773
Speaker 1: the chief stat little shocking bill stat.

419
00:19:25,093 --> 00:19:27,052
Speaker 2: Maybe not do we mention the potential for snow and

420
00:19:27,053 --> 00:19:29,572
Speaker 2: Buffalo because they're the one that's the they got all

421
00:19:29,613 --> 00:19:30,453
Speaker 2: the snow points.

422
00:19:30,573 --> 00:19:33,532
Speaker 1: If Buffalo ever built a dome, I think they should

423
00:19:33,533 --> 00:19:36,812
Speaker 1: have to forfeit their their team. I mean, because that

424
00:19:36,933 --> 00:19:40,173
Speaker 1: that's the thing that's their biggest home field advantage. And

425
00:19:40,293 --> 00:19:42,572
Speaker 1: Buffalo is also the place where wasn't who was the player?

426
00:19:42,613 --> 00:19:44,572
Speaker 1: Was it Ocho Cinco who said there's nowhere to go

427
00:19:44,613 --> 00:19:45,413
Speaker 1: here but Appleby's.

428
00:19:45,453 --> 00:19:48,213
Speaker 2: I think it's t t o to a lot of

429
00:19:48,213 --> 00:19:49,733
Speaker 2: Applebee's when he was up there for a year.

430
00:19:50,853 --> 00:19:53,173
Speaker 1: There's no reason to disparage Apple.

431
00:19:54,173 --> 00:19:55,453
Speaker 3: Give me my hometown, that's all.

432
00:19:55,493 --> 00:19:55,813
Speaker 1: We have.

433
00:19:55,973 --> 00:19:58,653
Speaker 2: Birthdays and celebrations were going to Apple.

434
00:19:58,693 --> 00:20:01,253
Speaker 1: When I went to Applebee's, I felt like we're going

435
00:20:01,373 --> 00:20:04,733
Speaker 1: big time, eating good in the neighborhood. Number three. You

436
00:20:04,773 --> 00:20:05,453
Speaker 1: get to pick.

437
00:20:07,493 --> 00:20:11,773
Speaker 2: All right, number three. It's a team nearby us. I'm

438
00:20:11,813 --> 00:20:14,773
Speaker 2: not necessarily a fan, but when Joe Burrow is throwing

439
00:20:14,773 --> 00:20:17,213
Speaker 2: to Jamar Chase, there's not much better in the NFL

440
00:20:17,213 --> 00:20:19,013
Speaker 2: when that offense is rocking. So I went with the

441
00:20:19,013 --> 00:20:22,773
Speaker 2: Bengals at three. Also like that their defense is usually chaos,

442
00:20:22,773 --> 00:20:25,373
Speaker 2: so they're getting a lot of shootouts. But it's all

443
00:20:25,373 --> 00:20:27,413
Speaker 2: Bengals locally here in Kentucky. We have a lot of

444
00:20:27,413 --> 00:20:30,253
Speaker 2: friends who like the Bengals, so I put them at third,

445
00:20:30,293 --> 00:20:31,853
Speaker 2: but mostly just Burrow to chase.

446
00:20:31,973 --> 00:20:33,493
Speaker 1: Maybe a lot of people, maybe some people out there

447
00:20:33,573 --> 00:20:35,933
Speaker 1: that consider that a surprising pick. I had him at

448
00:20:35,973 --> 00:20:38,213
Speaker 1: number four, so I can't you know, I didn't have

449
00:20:38,293 --> 00:20:40,613
Speaker 1: a much lower I think it's the Burrow chase thing, right,

450
00:20:41,013 --> 00:20:46,532
Speaker 1: the do not let your girlfriend see Joe Burr, Like

451
00:20:46,573 --> 00:20:49,572
Speaker 1: if she's tuned in to watch the game hoping to

452
00:20:49,573 --> 00:20:53,053
Speaker 1: see Travis and Taylor and she sees Joe Burrow, especially

453
00:20:53,093 --> 00:20:56,493
Speaker 1: like me, we live in Lexington, So if I, like,

454
00:20:56,533 --> 00:20:58,853
Speaker 1: if you're with a woman in Lexington and she burrows it,

455
00:20:58,893 --> 00:21:00,773
Speaker 1: she might be like that sin is not that far,

456
00:21:02,253 --> 00:21:05,332
Speaker 1: Like like I could meet him maybe if we go

457
00:21:05,453 --> 00:21:08,973
Speaker 1: up there and he's is he married? He's not married. No,

458
00:21:09,013 --> 00:21:09,813
Speaker 1: he's dating.

459
00:21:09,853 --> 00:21:12,133
Speaker 2: Remember when they got robbed or whatever, he got exposed

460
00:21:12,133 --> 00:21:13,933
Speaker 2: that he had a he was dating some model.

461
00:21:14,013 --> 00:21:16,453
Speaker 1: Oh we had a secret girlfriend. Yeah, yeah, that was he's.

462
00:21:16,373 --> 00:21:17,532
Speaker 2: At the house or whatever it was.

463
00:21:17,693 --> 00:21:20,413
Speaker 1: That would be the worst way to get caught. Yeah,

464
00:21:20,653 --> 00:21:23,853
Speaker 1: he's just trying to keep the house gets broken into

465
00:21:24,733 --> 00:21:28,373
Speaker 1: and it turns out you had a woman there. That

466
00:21:28,413 --> 00:21:29,733
Speaker 1: would be a bad day for Joe.

467
00:21:29,933 --> 00:21:32,052
Speaker 2: That'd still probably trade place with the Joe if I

468
00:21:32,093 --> 00:21:33,733
Speaker 2: was given the opportunity, though Joe seems to have a

469
00:21:33,733 --> 00:21:36,253
Speaker 2: pretty good life going for him. Bengals I probably would

470
00:21:36,253 --> 00:21:38,693
Speaker 2: have had in the thirties before Joe Burrow on this list.

471
00:21:38,813 --> 00:21:41,253
Speaker 1: But he and Chase that they're the offense and he

472
00:21:41,293 --> 00:21:43,733
Speaker 1: has a lot. There's a long line of quarterbacks, you know,

473
00:21:43,773 --> 00:21:48,333
Speaker 1: Boomers Sison, the one that gets forgotten, Ken Anderson. Do

474
00:21:48,413 --> 00:21:49,573
Speaker 1: you know the name Ken Anderson.

475
00:21:49,653 --> 00:21:51,933
Speaker 2: I've met Ken Anderson here in Lexington at a golf

476
00:21:51,973 --> 00:21:55,092
Speaker 2: outing and he was the NFL MVP when you Yeah,

477
00:21:55,253 --> 00:21:58,093
Speaker 2: and I went as Boomer Sison for Halloween as a

478
00:21:58,093 --> 00:22:01,533
Speaker 2: little kid. I guess now that I've done the Chiefs beingles,

479
00:22:01,533 --> 00:22:03,293
Speaker 2: I like the Tights. Maybe I just love the whole league,

480
00:22:03,293 --> 00:22:05,013
Speaker 2: But yeah, I was a Boomer, had the full outfit

481
00:22:05,053 --> 00:22:07,333
Speaker 2: and the helmet when Kumar.

482
00:22:07,053 --> 00:22:10,533
Speaker 1: Assasin for for well. I always say this, but it's

483
00:22:10,573 --> 00:22:12,933
Speaker 1: my one Ken Anderson fact. My mom went to law

484
00:22:12,933 --> 00:22:16,413
Speaker 1: school with Ken Anderson while he played for the Bengals.

485
00:22:17,293 --> 00:22:21,053
Speaker 1: He was also in law school. Can you imagine if

486
00:22:21,413 --> 00:22:24,653
Speaker 1: an MVP. So let's just say, like Josh Allen were

487
00:22:24,693 --> 00:22:28,052
Speaker 1: to also be in law school, Like we don'd Stephen

488
00:22:28,093 --> 00:22:30,093
Speaker 1: Addy say on first take, how in the world is

489
00:22:30,093 --> 00:22:32,533
Speaker 1: he supposed to focus when he has a tort law

490
00:22:32,693 --> 00:22:35,253
Speaker 1: class in the morning, But Ken Anderson did that.

491
00:22:35,453 --> 00:22:38,653
Speaker 2: I imagine you're watching Sunday night football, watching Allen come

492
00:22:38,733 --> 00:22:41,173
Speaker 2: back to beat the Ravens, and then at am, there

493
00:22:41,213 --> 00:22:42,853
Speaker 2: he is in your class. Just he's in your group

494
00:22:42,973 --> 00:22:43,933
Speaker 2: working on the group project.

495
00:22:44,013 --> 00:22:46,733
Speaker 1: He's my mom said, like he was in her civil

496
00:22:46,813 --> 00:22:49,893
Speaker 1: procedure small group and my mom did not know who

497
00:22:49,933 --> 00:22:52,413
Speaker 1: he was. And people were like, you realize Ken Anderson

498
00:22:52,533 --> 00:22:55,893
Speaker 1: is your partner. She didn't even she didn't know who

499
00:22:55,893 --> 00:22:59,213
Speaker 1: he was. She was like, that's Ken. He always comes

500
00:22:59,213 --> 00:23:05,093
Speaker 1: in here, dirty bar one day, nice guy. So what

501
00:23:05,253 --> 00:23:06,053
Speaker 1: is our Bengals fund?

502
00:23:06,613 --> 00:23:09,253
Speaker 3: The Bengals are the only offensive line, right.

503
00:23:09,293 --> 00:23:09,893
Speaker 1: How'd you say it?

504
00:23:09,933 --> 00:23:12,373
Speaker 3: The Bengals, thank you, are the not the Bengals. The

505
00:23:12,413 --> 00:23:15,253
Speaker 3: Bengals are the only offensive line to rank twenty fifth

506
00:23:15,333 --> 00:23:17,093
Speaker 3: or worse for four straight years.

507
00:23:17,173 --> 00:23:19,532
Speaker 1: Yeah, their offensive line is awful. They claim it's better,

508
00:23:20,333 --> 00:23:22,812
Speaker 1: but I doubt it for people who don't live in Cincinnati.

509
00:23:23,093 --> 00:23:26,773
Speaker 1: The Bengals practice facility is under the interstate next to

510
00:23:26,853 --> 00:23:31,693
Speaker 1: a train station. You think you think I'm making this up.

511
00:23:32,013 --> 00:23:35,532
Speaker 1: If you drive on I seventy five between Kentucky and Cincinnati,

512
00:23:35,813 --> 00:23:38,693
Speaker 1: you drive over what looks to be like a chemical

513
00:23:38,733 --> 00:23:41,613
Speaker 1: waste dump, and right next to it is the brand

514
00:23:41,613 --> 00:23:44,333
Speaker 1: new Bengals practice facility. And I always think it's kind

515
00:23:44,333 --> 00:23:50,052
Speaker 1: of funny that, Like, it's nice, but you also conceivably

516
00:23:50,413 --> 00:23:55,693
Speaker 1: could have hobos coming off the train joining you and

517
00:23:55,773 --> 00:23:56,813
Speaker 1: running out patterns.

518
00:23:57,053 --> 00:23:58,773
Speaker 2: They don't even have a goalpost to kicker. There's like

519
00:23:58,813 --> 00:24:01,173
Speaker 2: those two smoke stacks said that factory. He just goes

520
00:24:01,173 --> 00:24:03,733
Speaker 2: out in the parking lot starts kicking through that. A

521
00:24:03,773 --> 00:24:06,933
Speaker 2: lot of seems like isolate themselves out somewhere. It's maybe

522
00:24:06,933 --> 00:24:08,773
Speaker 2: one of the busiest roads in America, and people are

523
00:24:08,773 --> 00:24:10,013
Speaker 2: just flying by a looking.

524
00:24:10,013 --> 00:24:12,493
Speaker 1: In the middle of downtown, like you can literally sit

525
00:24:12,573 --> 00:24:17,093
Speaker 1: and watch the practice from the bridge. We don't encourage that,

526
00:24:17,133 --> 00:24:19,373
Speaker 1: by the way, Yeah, don't go watching it, but you could.

527
00:24:19,373 --> 00:24:22,853
Speaker 1: All right, number four, it's my pick. I actually had

528
00:24:22,853 --> 00:24:24,853
Speaker 1: it at number three, but we had the exact same

529
00:24:24,933 --> 00:24:26,773
Speaker 1: top four. We didn't talk about this before. I have

530
00:24:26,813 --> 00:24:30,453
Speaker 1: the Ravens. Really, it all comes down to Lamar. To

531
00:24:30,453 --> 00:24:32,093
Speaker 1: be quite frank with you, I think the Ravens are

532
00:24:32,133 --> 00:24:35,373
Speaker 1: actually kind of boring to watch besides Lamar. Lamar, though,

533
00:24:35,493 --> 00:24:38,133
Speaker 1: is the most exciting player in football. And then last

534
00:24:38,173 --> 00:24:42,413
Speaker 1: year they had the Derrick Henry addition that helped make them.

535
00:24:42,453 --> 00:24:44,453
Speaker 1: But if the Ravens are in the game, it's awesome.

536
00:24:44,973 --> 00:24:47,493
Speaker 1: You know. We still if you're my age, you still

537
00:24:47,533 --> 00:24:49,173
Speaker 1: think of them as a defensive team, but that's really

538
00:24:49,173 --> 00:24:54,013
Speaker 1: not the case anymore. It's really Lamar, and it's amazing

539
00:24:54,053 --> 00:24:55,813
Speaker 1: that a team can be number four because a one guy.

540
00:24:55,933 --> 00:24:56,733
Speaker 1: But I think they are.

541
00:24:57,293 --> 00:24:59,213
Speaker 2: I'm glad we did this order because this was my

542
00:24:59,333 --> 00:25:01,092
Speaker 2: first one where I got a little wild. I had

543
00:25:01,133 --> 00:25:03,613
Speaker 2: them much farther down because I said, I hate watch

544
00:25:03,693 --> 00:25:07,613
Speaker 2: teams as a Titans guy. See, and Derek Henry still

545
00:25:07,613 --> 00:25:09,973
Speaker 2: look like he's young. I can't watch it. We got

546
00:25:10,093 --> 00:25:12,653
Speaker 2: rid of him because he's too old. Let's get out.

547
00:25:12,733 --> 00:25:15,853
Speaker 2: He can't do it anymore. He's thirty one, thirty two,

548
00:25:16,133 --> 00:25:18,773
Speaker 2: and I know Saquan's out there, but I'm saying Derek

549
00:25:18,813 --> 00:25:20,572
Speaker 2: Henry will be the best running back next year.

550
00:25:20,453 --> 00:25:23,653
Speaker 1: And in running back here, thirty two is like eighty eight. Yeah,

551
00:25:23,693 --> 00:25:25,733
Speaker 1: like I mean, and he's still out there doing it.

552
00:25:25,773 --> 00:25:27,813
Speaker 1: And for him to go to a rival that head

553
00:25:27,813 --> 00:25:28,333
Speaker 1: to also.

554
00:25:28,173 --> 00:25:31,052
Speaker 2: Well, see, I've also been to go to Not that

555
00:25:31,093 --> 00:25:32,693
Speaker 2: they happen often, but I try to go to Titans

556
00:25:32,733 --> 00:25:35,613
Speaker 2: playoffs games. Ravens have gotten me twice with heartbreak over

557
00:25:35,613 --> 00:25:35,973
Speaker 2: the years.

558
00:25:36,013 --> 00:25:37,893
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, when I say rival, that's what I mean.

559
00:25:38,333 --> 00:25:39,573
Speaker 1: You all lost in the playoffs too.

560
00:25:39,813 --> 00:25:43,133
Speaker 2: You got a Louisville guy and Lamar who actually admire

561
00:25:43,173 --> 00:25:45,493
Speaker 2: and appreciating the NFL. But still they're a team that

562
00:25:45,533 --> 00:25:47,693
Speaker 2: when I turn it on, there's more emotions than I'm

563
00:25:47,693 --> 00:25:48,373
Speaker 2: just watching the game.

564
00:25:48,893 --> 00:25:49,292
Speaker 1: You didn't have.

565
00:25:49,533 --> 00:25:51,933
Speaker 2: I had him at seven because I won King Henry

566
00:25:51,933 --> 00:25:54,093
Speaker 2: and Nashville, not in Baltimore. That was the big one,

567
00:25:54,173 --> 00:25:57,653
Speaker 2: all right. So it's Chiefs, Bills, Bengals, Ravens. It's pretty good.

568
00:25:57,733 --> 00:25:59,733
Speaker 1: Top four. Give me a Baltimore. Tell me what Warren

569
00:25:59,733 --> 00:26:00,373
Speaker 1: Sharp thinks.

570
00:26:00,533 --> 00:26:03,292
Speaker 3: Since twenty twenty, the Ravens are twenty three and twenty

571
00:26:03,333 --> 00:26:07,292
Speaker 3: four in one score games. That's the eighteenth best in

572
00:26:07,333 --> 00:26:08,533
Speaker 3: the NFL in that time.

573
00:26:08,653 --> 00:26:12,693
Speaker 1: That's a terrible fact. They're basically in the middle of

574
00:26:12,733 --> 00:26:13,133
Speaker 1: the pack.

575
00:26:14,013 --> 00:26:16,973
Speaker 3: For comparison, the Steelers who made the playoffs last year

576
00:26:17,053 --> 00:26:20,733
Speaker 3: are thirty seven and fifteen. That's number two win ray, Okay, so.

577
00:26:20,693 --> 00:26:25,013
Speaker 1: That would have been a good fact for the Steelers Baltimore.

578
00:26:25,853 --> 00:26:29,173
Speaker 1: They're always all right, that's okay, you know what. One's

579
00:26:29,373 --> 00:26:32,053
Speaker 1: one had good facts for three of the four. I'll

580
00:26:32,093 --> 00:26:35,613
Speaker 1: add one. The Ravens are undefeated. If Derek Henry gets

581
00:26:35,693 --> 00:26:38,373
Speaker 1: ninety yards. I think they were twelve and oer last year. Again,

582
00:26:38,413 --> 00:26:40,493
Speaker 1: Derek Henns is still in his prime. I miss him.

583
00:26:40,773 --> 00:26:42,653
Speaker 1: You think he'll be good this year? Yes? The best?

584
00:26:42,813 --> 00:26:45,292
Speaker 1: All right? Tell me who you got? What's next? Speak

585
00:26:45,613 --> 00:26:46,053
Speaker 1: number five?

586
00:26:46,053 --> 00:26:47,812
Speaker 2: Well, speaking of let's get weird, this is where I

587
00:26:47,813 --> 00:26:48,933
Speaker 2: had to put my own team.

588
00:26:49,053 --> 00:26:51,573
Speaker 1: I had them at four. The camp I'm not letting

589
00:26:51,573 --> 00:26:51,933
Speaker 1: you do that.

590
00:26:52,013 --> 00:26:53,093
Speaker 2: The cam Ward experience.

591
00:26:53,213 --> 00:26:55,613
Speaker 1: I'm not letting you get the Titan. You cannot listen.

592
00:26:55,653 --> 00:26:57,453
Speaker 1: We got to put this in a graphic out to

593
00:26:57,493 --> 00:26:59,893
Speaker 1: the public. I cannot put the Titans. That's the number

594
00:26:59,933 --> 00:27:01,292
Speaker 1: three five most interesting.

595
00:27:01,453 --> 00:27:03,653
Speaker 2: At some point when we're doing if I'm sitting down

596
00:27:03,733 --> 00:27:05,052
Speaker 2: watching like, where are your bears?

597
00:27:05,093 --> 00:27:07,653
Speaker 3: I mean they're probably there, but I.

598
00:27:07,613 --> 00:27:10,493
Speaker 1: Mean that's part of the game. We have our teams.

599
00:27:10,693 --> 00:27:12,933
Speaker 1: But to be honest with you, you're gonna put him somewhere.

600
00:27:12,973 --> 00:27:17,173
Speaker 1: I feel like objectively, Caleb Williams is more interesting.

601
00:27:17,373 --> 00:27:22,693
Speaker 2: Cam Ward the number one pick this year, year, his

602
00:27:22,813 --> 00:27:23,813
Speaker 2: years the number one pick.

603
00:27:26,053 --> 00:27:29,813
Speaker 1: If it's games on TV and it's Titans or it's Bears,

604
00:27:30,413 --> 00:27:33,812
Speaker 1: his team or my team, who are you more excited

605
00:27:33,813 --> 00:27:35,693
Speaker 1: to watch? Neither?

606
00:27:35,853 --> 00:27:38,013
Speaker 3: But I guess the Bears if we're choosing it. I

607
00:27:38,013 --> 00:27:39,573
Speaker 3: hate to say that for you. What happened to a

608
00:27:39,693 --> 00:27:42,253
Speaker 3: draft order? Why don't we need some? We have an order.

609
00:27:42,373 --> 00:27:44,533
Speaker 1: The problem is we're gonna put this on a graphic

610
00:27:44,613 --> 00:27:46,213
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be the first time people are gonna

611
00:27:46,213 --> 00:27:49,253
Speaker 1: know us, and you're gonna have the Titans fifth, it's

612
00:27:49,373 --> 00:27:54,733
Speaker 1: cam Ward, it's my team. Where do you want them seventeenth?

613
00:27:54,853 --> 00:27:56,133
Speaker 1: This is ruining the graphic.

614
00:27:56,213 --> 00:27:57,733
Speaker 2: I just want to where you said you had the

615
00:27:57,773 --> 00:27:58,613
Speaker 2: Bears at fifth?

616
00:27:58,893 --> 00:28:00,572
Speaker 1: That but that was that's that's object But.

617
00:28:00,573 --> 00:28:02,573
Speaker 2: They don't I mean, they don't belong in the top two.

618
00:28:02,893 --> 00:28:05,893
Speaker 1: Caleb Williams is exciting. Like with Caleb, you don't know

619
00:28:05,893 --> 00:28:08,853
Speaker 1: what color his fingernails are gonna be right, You don't

620
00:28:08,893 --> 00:28:11,653
Speaker 1: know if he's got you know, think about the games

621
00:28:11,733 --> 00:28:14,013
Speaker 1: last year. Every game we had came down to the wire.

622
00:28:14,053 --> 00:28:17,653
Speaker 1: You had to fame the Hail Mary game against the Commanders.

623
00:28:18,613 --> 00:28:20,533
Speaker 1: The ball ends up in his hands in the fourth

624
00:28:20,613 --> 00:28:22,773
Speaker 1: quarter with the chance to go win all the time.

625
00:28:23,533 --> 00:28:26,293
Speaker 2: But you just made my case for cam Ward. He's

626
00:28:26,373 --> 00:28:28,653
Speaker 2: last year's Caleb Williams. That's why he should be ahead

627
00:28:28,693 --> 00:28:28,773
Speaker 2: of it.

628
00:28:28,853 --> 00:28:31,693
Speaker 1: We're not watchle to know what cam Ward looks like.

629
00:28:32,413 --> 00:28:36,213
Speaker 2: Well, it's not a beauty watch fire the big skin.

630
00:28:36,293 --> 00:28:37,053
Speaker 3: What are we talking about?

631
00:28:37,053 --> 00:28:40,573
Speaker 1: They got helmets on the pigskin. I'm just defending.

632
00:28:41,933 --> 00:28:43,973
Speaker 2: I'm defending my Titans, who I think might be one

633
00:28:43,973 --> 00:28:44,533
Speaker 2: of the worst teams.

634
00:28:44,893 --> 00:28:46,133
Speaker 1: What just know?

635
00:28:47,133 --> 00:28:48,053
Speaker 3: How about on the graphic?

636
00:28:49,013 --> 00:28:50,213
Speaker 1: He ruined the graphic?

637
00:28:53,013 --> 00:28:56,133
Speaker 3: Yeah, for a podcast called Cover zero with Titans in

638
00:28:56,173 --> 00:28:57,213
Speaker 3: the top five of watching.

639
00:28:57,453 --> 00:29:00,733
Speaker 1: I can't believe the Titans are number four, five, okay,

640
00:29:00,733 --> 00:29:02,373
Speaker 1: but then the Bears are going to be number six,

641
00:29:03,253 --> 00:29:06,453
Speaker 1: so we were I mean, this this is by cat.

642
00:29:06,573 --> 00:29:08,613
Speaker 1: We've ruined it right there. But we'll we'll have to

643
00:29:08,613 --> 00:29:10,813
Speaker 1: put a look our faces next to each one of

644
00:29:10,853 --> 00:29:13,733
Speaker 1: them says it's our team, all right, give me a

645
00:29:13,773 --> 00:29:16,653
Speaker 1: Titans fun fact. Good luck.

646
00:29:18,373 --> 00:29:21,853
Speaker 3: They were really bad last year. Two and six and

647
00:29:21,853 --> 00:29:23,813
Speaker 3: one score games. If you want to keep that name going.

648
00:29:23,693 --> 00:29:26,373
Speaker 1: There we go two and six and one score game.

649
00:29:26,613 --> 00:29:29,493
Speaker 1: You're a Titans fan. Cam Ward's the only reason to

650
00:29:29,533 --> 00:29:31,813
Speaker 1: watch the team. Apparently it's the reason the fifth best

651
00:29:31,853 --> 00:29:34,373
Speaker 1: reason to watch any team, but right, is there any

652
00:29:34,373 --> 00:29:35,893
Speaker 1: other reason to watch or not at all?

653
00:29:36,213 --> 00:29:36,853
Speaker 3: I love him.

654
00:29:36,893 --> 00:29:40,053
Speaker 2: It's been a been a rough existence since nineteen ninety nine.

655
00:29:40,093 --> 00:29:42,533
Speaker 2: We've had a few good years. Those are getting few

656
00:29:42,533 --> 00:29:45,693
Speaker 2: and far between. But cam Ward in the little glimpses

657
00:29:45,733 --> 00:29:47,733
Speaker 2: we got him in the preseason, It's not just me

658
00:29:47,813 --> 00:29:50,413
Speaker 2: being a fan. There's some excitement around him and thinking

659
00:29:50,453 --> 00:29:52,413
Speaker 2: he could be one of those dudes. I don't know

660
00:29:52,413 --> 00:29:54,253
Speaker 2: if we're gonna have a Jaylen Daniels run of a

661
00:29:54,333 --> 00:29:56,053
Speaker 2: year ago and make the playoffs, but I think he

662
00:29:56,453 --> 00:29:57,613
Speaker 2: is one that a lot of people will want to

663
00:29:57,613 --> 00:29:58,413
Speaker 2: see how he pans out.

664
00:29:58,493 --> 00:30:01,213
Speaker 1: Yeah, I I just for just comparison's sake. I had

665
00:30:01,213 --> 00:30:07,973
Speaker 1: the Titans twenty ninth. It's perfect twenty ninth. I had

666
00:30:07,973 --> 00:30:10,933
Speaker 1: the Titans twenty ninth. I feel like most of the

667
00:30:10,933 --> 00:30:13,333
Speaker 1: time when I watch the Titans, the field is coming

668
00:30:13,413 --> 00:30:16,613
Speaker 1: up like the field has been. It feels like you

669
00:30:16,653 --> 00:30:19,773
Speaker 1: all get more divots in the field. Do you should

670
00:30:19,773 --> 00:30:20,613
Speaker 1: see the upper deck?

671
00:30:20,853 --> 00:30:22,173
Speaker 2: If you go to a game, you look down and

672
00:30:22,213 --> 00:30:24,013
Speaker 2: the concrete has cracks in your thing, and there's a

673
00:30:24,053 --> 00:30:25,093
Speaker 2: chance I could end up in the.

674
00:30:25,013 --> 00:30:26,853
Speaker 1: Parking lot if they don't fix this. Yeah.

675
00:30:26,893 --> 00:30:30,013
Speaker 2: Also, it's very fitting for the Titans to make a

676
00:30:30,053 --> 00:30:31,853
Speaker 2: bad pick at the top of the draft, because that's

677
00:30:31,893 --> 00:30:34,093
Speaker 2: exactly what they do. It's a little tribute taking the

678
00:30:34,093 --> 00:30:37,293
Speaker 2: Titans number four. Okay, so the Titans end up number five.

679
00:30:38,133 --> 00:30:39,733
Speaker 2: I guess we're going with the Bears number six. My

680
00:30:39,813 --> 00:30:43,413
Speaker 2: case is gonna have an exciting offense, lots of weapons.

681
00:30:43,533 --> 00:30:44,453
Speaker 2: Caleb Williams.

682
00:30:44,813 --> 00:30:48,533
Speaker 1: You get to see an SNL skip from the eighties

683
00:30:48,573 --> 00:30:51,133
Speaker 1: every time they play while they show the guys go bubbers.

684
00:30:51,293 --> 00:30:54,653
Speaker 1: They keep showing all those guys. Think they've all passed away, unfortunately,

685
00:30:54,933 --> 00:30:58,253
Speaker 1: but they're still on there. You got the mustaches. They're

686
00:30:58,253 --> 00:31:00,653
Speaker 1: also the only stadium I've ever been to that only

687
00:31:00,693 --> 00:31:05,053
Speaker 1: serves RC cola. Oh wow, did you know that? No,

688
00:31:05,333 --> 00:31:08,893
Speaker 1: they're official soft drink is not coke and it's not

689
00:31:08,973 --> 00:31:12,973
Speaker 1: Pepsi's RC, so you can all the RC. You can

690
00:31:13,013 --> 00:31:17,853
Speaker 1: only get RC products. Impressive that's really strange, Like, is there,

691
00:31:17,933 --> 00:31:19,773
Speaker 1: first of all, is there any other place in the

692
00:31:19,973 --> 00:31:22,613
Speaker 1: United States where you can only get I think you

693
00:31:22,613 --> 00:31:25,253
Speaker 1: could go to the RC factory and they would still

694
00:31:25,293 --> 00:31:26,173
Speaker 1: offer you a coke.

695
00:31:26,333 --> 00:31:28,333
Speaker 2: I grew up around the corner from an RC plant,

696
00:31:28,373 --> 00:31:29,893
Speaker 2: and I thought when it closed that was the end

697
00:31:29,893 --> 00:31:31,893
Speaker 2: of r C. That was like thirty years ago. You're

698
00:31:31,893 --> 00:31:34,053
Speaker 2: telling me it's still out there floating around. It's the

699
00:31:34,053 --> 00:31:38,053
Speaker 2: only drink you can get it sold. Your field is

700
00:31:38,173 --> 00:31:41,213
Speaker 2: RC so one of the oldest stadiums that they're just

701
00:31:41,253 --> 00:31:42,333
Speaker 2: going for the nostalgia thing.

702
00:31:42,613 --> 00:31:45,413
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess so, So there you go, and that,

703
00:31:45,653 --> 00:31:47,853
Speaker 1: to me is the fun fact for Chicago. But does

704
00:31:47,893 --> 00:31:49,213
Speaker 1: Warren have one better than that?

705
00:31:49,693 --> 00:31:53,173
Speaker 3: Caleb Williams took a league high sixty eight sacks last year.

706
00:31:53,413 --> 00:31:56,893
Speaker 1: Yeah, well I felt that watching. I mean, he that's

707
00:31:56,893 --> 00:32:00,453
Speaker 1: over four sacks a game, and he he was he

708
00:32:00,813 --> 00:32:02,333
Speaker 1: held the ball too long, but he also had a

709
00:32:02,373 --> 00:32:05,853
Speaker 1: tearbo offensive Lindy. They upgraded it during the off season.

710
00:32:06,813 --> 00:32:09,733
Speaker 1: Watch him hopefully, Yeah, call him Missouri. That's exactly right,

711
00:32:09,773 --> 00:32:11,533
Speaker 1: all right, number who's next for you?

712
00:32:12,453 --> 00:32:13,773
Speaker 2: Well, if you didn't like my last one, I don't

713
00:32:13,813 --> 00:32:17,893
Speaker 2: think you're gonna like this one. Well, they are America's team,

714
00:32:17,933 --> 00:32:20,693
Speaker 2: so America will agree with me. But just the chaos

715
00:32:20,693 --> 00:32:22,373
Speaker 2: of the Dallas Cowboys.

716
00:32:22,253 --> 00:32:24,093
Speaker 1: I don't think that's a bad pick. Actually, I mean

717
00:32:24,133 --> 00:32:27,653
Speaker 1: I have them, you have them, what they were fifth

718
00:32:27,653 --> 00:32:30,933
Speaker 1: on my list, I have them eight, So like, I

719
00:32:31,013 --> 00:32:33,573
Speaker 1: don't think that's a terrible And it's because of the drama.

720
00:32:33,773 --> 00:32:36,093
Speaker 2: The drama, I mean, are they ever going to be

721
00:32:36,133 --> 00:32:36,653
Speaker 2: good again?

722
00:32:37,413 --> 00:32:39,813
Speaker 1: It is because of the drama. And then the agonizing

723
00:32:39,933 --> 00:32:44,293
Speaker 1: shots of pain on the fans' faces are also great.

724
00:32:44,333 --> 00:32:46,333
Speaker 1: And then I love when Troy Aateman's doing the game

725
00:32:46,493 --> 00:32:51,013
Speaker 1: and his disgust about his former organization comes through. That's

726
00:32:51,013 --> 00:32:52,413
Speaker 1: so I don't think the Cowboys are crazy.

727
00:32:52,413 --> 00:32:55,573
Speaker 2: Bit Yeah, if Prescott can stay healthy this year, you

728
00:32:55,613 --> 00:32:58,253
Speaker 2: got Lamb and Picking, so that's a good duo. Also,

729
00:32:58,373 --> 00:33:00,413
Speaker 2: just little side things like when the light comes through

730
00:33:00,413 --> 00:33:02,533
Speaker 2: the stadium and blinds everybody, like, how do you have

731
00:33:02,573 --> 00:33:03,413
Speaker 2: the nicest stadium?

732
00:33:05,653 --> 00:33:08,813
Speaker 1: That is all always bizarre to me because they always

733
00:33:08,853 --> 00:33:10,893
Speaker 1: have that one light and the announcers will go, this

734
00:33:11,093 --> 00:33:12,493
Speaker 1: is hurting people.

735
00:33:12,813 --> 00:33:16,133
Speaker 2: Remember Lamb last year dropped to touch your home Pro

736
00:33:16,213 --> 00:33:17,933
Speaker 2: Bowl receiver dropped the pass.

737
00:33:17,733 --> 00:33:20,693
Speaker 1: And the end zone and you've been before. And I

738
00:33:20,733 --> 00:33:23,133
Speaker 1: think watching a game at Cowboys Stadium has to be

739
00:33:23,173 --> 00:33:25,773
Speaker 1: like what it's like to watch a concert at the Sphere,

740
00:33:26,733 --> 00:33:29,013
Speaker 1: Like it doesn't feel like you're in a real place.

741
00:33:29,213 --> 00:33:33,333
Speaker 1: It's so beautiful and so it almost feels like you're

742
00:33:33,333 --> 00:33:36,133
Speaker 1: in a theater, you're not in a football stadium.

743
00:33:36,373 --> 00:33:38,773
Speaker 2: And because that screen so big, you look up instead

744
00:33:38,773 --> 00:33:40,893
Speaker 2: of even though the live ashes right in front of you,

745
00:33:40,853 --> 00:33:41,373
Speaker 2: you've never.

746
00:33:41,213 --> 00:33:43,653
Speaker 1: Seen a moment on the game on the field. Now

747
00:33:43,653 --> 00:33:46,453
Speaker 1: you're only looking at the stadium. Also, note when you

748
00:33:46,493 --> 00:33:51,213
Speaker 1: park there, I'm still walking back to my car. The

749
00:33:51,253 --> 00:33:54,973
Speaker 1: parking lots are so far you get your steps in though.

750
00:33:55,173 --> 00:33:55,973
Speaker 1: That's that's good.

751
00:33:56,133 --> 00:33:58,813
Speaker 2: And if you haven't been, you know it's not Dallas Dalla.

752
00:33:58,893 --> 00:34:00,453
Speaker 2: It's out on its own, so if you're trying to

753
00:34:00,533 --> 00:34:02,013
Speaker 2: make a day out of it, there's a few things

754
00:34:02,053 --> 00:34:03,413
Speaker 2: around it, but it's kind of out there on it,

755
00:34:03,413 --> 00:34:04,493
Speaker 2: so you see it when you're flying in.

756
00:34:04,773 --> 00:34:07,413
Speaker 1: Its way out there, right to go. So this will

757
00:34:07,453 --> 00:34:09,252
Speaker 1: be number eight for the group. I'm gonna take the

758
00:34:09,373 --> 00:34:16,293
Speaker 1: Lions mostly because they used to be towards the bottom

759
00:34:16,292 --> 00:34:18,533
Speaker 1: of the list for me because I hate the indoor stadiums.

760
00:34:19,093 --> 00:34:21,572
Speaker 1: But I do like watching Dan Campbell. I always feel

761
00:34:21,613 --> 00:34:25,452
Speaker 1: like at some point, uh, he's gonna spontaneously combust. He

762
00:34:25,533 --> 00:34:28,252
Speaker 1: reminds me of the gym teacher from Beavis and butt

763
00:34:28,252 --> 00:34:32,013
Speaker 1: Head and then Aiden Hutchinson. I get to see his family,

764
00:34:32,133 --> 00:34:34,652
Speaker 1: always enjoy that. I hope they're doing good. I love

765
00:34:34,652 --> 00:34:36,532
Speaker 1: showing them. Yeah, they love showing them. I hope they're

766
00:34:36,573 --> 00:34:38,892
Speaker 1: doing really well. The offense was really exciting. Now I

767
00:34:38,933 --> 00:34:41,772
Speaker 1: don't know without Ben Johnson if they will be quite

768
00:34:41,812 --> 00:34:44,692
Speaker 1: as exciting. But you know, it seems like a fan

769
00:34:44,732 --> 00:34:48,453
Speaker 1: base that's desperate to win, and so I enjoy the Lions,

770
00:34:48,453 --> 00:34:50,013
Speaker 1: and then I think the Lions are one of the

771
00:34:50,053 --> 00:34:52,013
Speaker 1: top teams in the league. Along with the vikings of

772
00:34:52,093 --> 00:34:56,852
Speaker 1: people dressed up in costumes, you know, there are people

773
00:34:56,933 --> 00:35:00,652
Speaker 1: dressed up as in Lions gear, or they'll have like, uh,

774
00:35:00,772 --> 00:35:03,133
Speaker 1: there'll be a plumber, or they'll be dressed as Mario

775
00:35:03,332 --> 00:35:04,652
Speaker 1: or Luigi.

776
00:35:04,372 --> 00:35:06,292
Speaker 2: Or they'll just wear shoulder pads to the game with

777
00:35:06,332 --> 00:35:06,732
Speaker 2: the Lions.

778
00:35:06,772 --> 00:35:07,212
Speaker 3: There's a lot of.

779
00:35:07,172 --> 00:35:09,452
Speaker 1: People who think they might check in then at some point.

780
00:35:09,812 --> 00:35:11,852
Speaker 1: So so the Lions come in next.

781
00:35:11,893 --> 00:35:13,372
Speaker 3: For me, I'm glad we're getting back on track.

782
00:35:13,453 --> 00:35:15,093
Speaker 2: I had the Lions as my next if it had

783
00:35:15,133 --> 00:35:16,692
Speaker 2: been my pick, So we agreed on this one.

784
00:35:16,933 --> 00:35:19,572
Speaker 1: All right, what is your line? First of all? Cowboys? Fact?

785
00:35:19,573 --> 00:35:21,332
Speaker 1: I skipped them to what's your Cowboys? Yeah?

786
00:35:21,372 --> 00:35:21,812
Speaker 3: Cowboys?

787
00:35:21,812 --> 00:35:22,052
Speaker 1: Fact?

788
00:35:22,453 --> 00:35:25,613
Speaker 3: The Cowboys have made the playoffs twelve times since nineteen

789
00:35:25,652 --> 00:35:28,172
Speaker 3: ninety eight. They're four and twelve. Eight of those trips

790
00:35:28,172 --> 00:35:30,093
Speaker 3: were brief zero to one postseason.

791
00:35:30,453 --> 00:35:34,412
Speaker 1: They have only won four playoff games since win ninety eight.

792
00:35:35,093 --> 00:35:38,493
Speaker 1: It's crazy. They've had some hard burners. Four playoff games

793
00:35:38,493 --> 00:35:45,373
Speaker 1: in twenty seven years now, that Warren Sharp slash Billy

794
00:35:46,652 --> 00:35:50,573
Speaker 1: is a pretty amazing statistic. Four and twenty seven years.

795
00:35:50,973 --> 00:35:53,332
Speaker 1: I kind of hope they win now, just I don't

796
00:35:53,413 --> 00:35:55,732
Speaker 1: like looking at Steven a and his cowboy hat. That

797
00:35:55,852 --> 00:35:58,292
Speaker 1: never it never makes me happy. All right? What is

798
00:35:58,372 --> 00:35:59,533
Speaker 1: the Lions? Fact?

799
00:35:59,533 --> 00:36:03,413
Speaker 3: The Lions drafted Tate Ratledge in the second round from Georgia.

800
00:36:03,893 --> 00:36:04,412
Speaker 3: He allowed you.

801
00:36:04,372 --> 00:36:09,333
Speaker 1: To stop right there, that's the fact. There, go ahead.

802
00:36:09,933 --> 00:36:12,372
Speaker 3: He allowed just one sack in three years as a

803
00:36:12,372 --> 00:36:15,973
Speaker 3: starter at Georgia, only ten pressures, only four penalties in

804
00:36:16,053 --> 00:36:17,812
Speaker 3: over sixteen hundred snaps.

805
00:36:18,332 --> 00:36:20,372
Speaker 1: That don't really stuck out for you, you big Tate

806
00:36:20,453 --> 00:36:20,932
Speaker 1: Ratlage g.

807
00:36:21,172 --> 00:36:24,292
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean one sack in three years as a

808
00:36:24,292 --> 00:36:25,652
Speaker 3: starter at an SEC school.

809
00:36:25,772 --> 00:36:28,732
Speaker 1: That's have a Do you have a picture of Tate Ratledge?

810
00:36:28,772 --> 00:36:29,373
Speaker 1: Are you related?

811
00:36:29,613 --> 00:36:33,292
Speaker 3: It's close to Yeah, it's the last name thing. Just

812
00:36:33,413 --> 00:36:38,172
Speaker 3: move a letter Rutledge Ratledge Billyard sports on Twitter if

813
00:36:38,212 --> 00:36:38,853
Speaker 3: you want to follow.

814
00:36:39,212 --> 00:36:41,252
Speaker 1: Look at him trying to get the NFL bump for

815
00:36:41,332 --> 00:36:42,532
Speaker 1: the Twitter account.

816
00:36:44,852 --> 00:36:46,652
Speaker 2: We know Billy will shoot a shot on those things.

817
00:36:46,692 --> 00:36:51,453
Speaker 1: That's exactly right. Jennifer Lawrence, you asked her out, Uh,

818
00:36:51,533 --> 00:36:55,053
Speaker 1: Tate Ratledge. I'd get a chance. I think we could

819
00:36:55,093 --> 00:36:58,692
Speaker 1: pull strings and maybe get Tate Ratledge on the pom.

820
00:36:58,692 --> 00:37:01,492
Speaker 3: Glad you didn't say be an honor. We can meet

821
00:37:01,573 --> 00:37:02,772
Speaker 3: Jennifer Lawrence to that'd be funy.

822
00:37:03,093 --> 00:37:06,133
Speaker 1: We're getting Tate Ratledge. I want you to start working

823
00:37:06,212 --> 00:37:07,972
Speaker 1: it on this Oh, I'm working on it. Okay, Well,

824
00:37:08,013 --> 00:37:10,133
Speaker 1: I mean you're the producer. I think you need to

825
00:37:10,172 --> 00:37:13,533
Speaker 1: call the lines. Just go, uh, may I have the

826
00:37:13,573 --> 00:37:16,053
Speaker 1: lines and say we'd like to get taped because he

827
00:37:16,093 --> 00:37:17,172
Speaker 1: can't get a lot of requests.

828
00:37:18,772 --> 00:37:21,172
Speaker 3: Sounds pretty good. Will you see the expectations?

829
00:37:21,493 --> 00:37:23,772
Speaker 2: Ask for Tate rat and if you can't get him,

830
00:37:23,812 --> 00:37:25,133
Speaker 2: get the entire Hutchinson family.

831
00:37:25,692 --> 00:37:28,372
Speaker 1: We know they're there. No, No, I think we're going

832
00:37:28,453 --> 00:37:31,053
Speaker 1: to discover that Tate Rat in addition to not giving

833
00:37:31,172 --> 00:37:34,332
Speaker 1: away Sacks, is a fine young fella that helps you.

834
00:37:34,533 --> 00:37:37,573
Speaker 1: All right, Good Georgia boys, Southern charm. Good, all right,

835
00:37:38,573 --> 00:37:41,332
Speaker 1: let's see back to you. Who what is it? I

836
00:37:41,372 --> 00:37:45,332
Speaker 1: went with our defending Super Bowl champs here, kind of

837
00:37:45,332 --> 00:37:47,372
Speaker 1: surprising the Eagles all the way at number nine. I

838
00:37:47,413 --> 00:37:49,652
Speaker 1: had them at twelve, but we had them that far.

839
00:37:49,732 --> 00:37:50,973
Speaker 1: We had to go all the way to nine to

840
00:37:50,973 --> 00:37:53,212
Speaker 1: get the Eagles. Why the Eagles this way? Why wouldn't

841
00:37:53,212 --> 00:37:55,252
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl champs be higher than this for both

842
00:37:55,292 --> 00:37:57,772
Speaker 1: of us? That's a good question. I mean, they are

843
00:37:57,812 --> 00:38:01,692
Speaker 1: fun to watch, They're absolutely loaded with talent. I think

844
00:38:01,772 --> 00:38:03,732
Speaker 1: part of it is I kind of hate how their

845
00:38:03,973 --> 00:38:06,692
Speaker 1: their GM Howie keeps getting away with robbery on Draft night,

846
00:38:06,732 --> 00:38:07,692
Speaker 1: and I don't like that they're.

847
00:38:07,533 --> 00:38:09,692
Speaker 2: As good as they should be. Also, I mentioned that

848
00:38:09,772 --> 00:38:12,252
Speaker 2: Derrick Henry thing's hard for me. I still can't look

849
00:38:12,252 --> 00:38:14,852
Speaker 2: at AJ Brown. That dude should be retiring as a

850
00:38:14,893 --> 00:38:17,093
Speaker 2: Titan one day and they let him go to Philadelphia.

851
00:38:17,172 --> 00:38:19,012
Speaker 2: So I have a little bit of a hard time

852
00:38:19,053 --> 00:38:22,933
Speaker 2: watching AJ there. Arthur one, as I call him, have success.

853
00:38:23,852 --> 00:38:27,412
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurt's too handsome. That's a problem for me. You

854
00:38:27,453 --> 00:38:30,812
Speaker 1: know these guys going back to Brady. When you have

855
00:38:30,893 --> 00:38:33,972
Speaker 1: dudes too handsome, I can't deal with it. He's another one.

856
00:38:34,053 --> 00:38:36,332
Speaker 1: Don't watch a game, which don't if you've got with

857
00:38:36,413 --> 00:38:38,252
Speaker 1: your girl, don't watch a game when Jalen Hurts. Come on,

858
00:38:38,493 --> 00:38:40,172
Speaker 1: there's a couple people. We'll get to one here in

859
00:38:40,212 --> 00:38:43,292
Speaker 1: a minute too. There's like three quarterbacks. You can't let

860
00:38:43,332 --> 00:38:46,212
Speaker 1: your girl run, can't let her around Joe Burrow, can't

861
00:38:46,252 --> 00:38:47,372
Speaker 1: let her around Jalen.

862
00:38:47,133 --> 00:38:49,213
Speaker 2: Hurts, especially when he starts to tush pushing.

863
00:38:49,372 --> 00:38:52,972
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, and he smiles and just if it doesn't work,

864
00:38:53,172 --> 00:38:56,932
Speaker 1: then I did enjoy the Saquon Barkley rejuvenation, you know,

865
00:38:57,292 --> 00:38:59,892
Speaker 1: the Toush push, though they bring him down the list.

866
00:38:59,933 --> 00:39:02,133
Speaker 1: From me, I wasn't putting a team that Toush pushes

867
00:39:02,172 --> 00:39:04,172
Speaker 1: in the top ten. Fourth and one should be exciting,

868
00:39:04,172 --> 00:39:07,333
Speaker 1: and it's not exciting. They get it every single time.

869
00:39:07,692 --> 00:39:11,612
Speaker 1: I hate the Tush push, and that makes them down

870
00:39:11,613 --> 00:39:13,413
Speaker 1: for me. So I think number nine is good because

871
00:39:13,453 --> 00:39:15,372
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna put him high when they're pushing all

872
00:39:15,372 --> 00:39:15,813
Speaker 1: that Tush.

873
00:39:15,893 --> 00:39:18,452
Speaker 2: I've mentioned jealousy with some some former players my team

874
00:39:18,533 --> 00:39:21,453
Speaker 2: let walk, but I mean New York Giants watching Saquon

875
00:39:21,493 --> 00:39:24,772
Speaker 2: Bark they go to the Eagles and it's got two yards.

876
00:39:25,093 --> 00:39:27,453
Speaker 2: I think I would shut down the entire organization.

877
00:39:27,573 --> 00:39:31,652
Speaker 1: He also looked like a corpse at the end, and

878
00:39:31,852 --> 00:39:34,133
Speaker 1: with the Giants, I mean he look he looked. He

879
00:39:34,133 --> 00:39:36,252
Speaker 1: looked like Tate Ratlet's trying to run it. We're trying

880
00:39:36,252 --> 00:39:36,852
Speaker 1: to run the ball.

881
00:39:36,933 --> 00:39:38,493
Speaker 2: And then there's that clip like, well, we hope he

882
00:39:38,493 --> 00:39:40,732
Speaker 2: doesn't go to the Giant the Eagles, and then he

883
00:39:40,772 --> 00:39:42,613
Speaker 2: goes to Eagles and he's amazing.

884
00:39:43,133 --> 00:39:45,652
Speaker 1: So normally a Super Bowl champ defending you think would

885
00:39:45,652 --> 00:39:47,373
Speaker 1: be in the top three or four. But the Eagles

886
00:39:47,613 --> 00:39:49,093
Speaker 1: down the list. And I don't think we're the only

887
00:39:49,133 --> 00:39:52,492
Speaker 1: ones I feel like this. They're like boring good. You're

888
00:39:52,533 --> 00:39:53,093
Speaker 1: just so good.

889
00:39:53,133 --> 00:39:53,973
Speaker 3: It's so complete.

890
00:39:54,053 --> 00:39:54,772
Speaker 1: We just know you're good.

891
00:39:54,812 --> 00:39:55,493
Speaker 3: I don't have to watch it.

892
00:39:55,692 --> 00:39:56,732
Speaker 1: Give me an Eagles fact.

893
00:39:56,973 --> 00:39:59,652
Speaker 3: Jalen Hurts has scored thirty three of his career rushing

894
00:39:59,692 --> 00:40:02,692
Speaker 3: touchdowns on the tush push. That's sixty percent of all

895
00:40:02,732 --> 00:40:03,812
Speaker 3: of his rushing scores.

896
00:40:04,573 --> 00:40:07,053
Speaker 1: See that's in and of itself should not be allowed.

897
00:40:07,732 --> 00:40:11,773
Speaker 1: Sixty percent of his touchdowns are tush pushing. That doesn't

898
00:40:11,812 --> 00:40:13,613
Speaker 1: feel he's gonna have to admit to this as a

899
00:40:13,652 --> 00:40:16,053
Speaker 1: little fraudulent. I'm not gonna like it. I'm gonna when he.

900
00:40:16,053 --> 00:40:18,053
Speaker 2: Has a record for rushing touchdowns, that should be an

901
00:40:18,053 --> 00:40:20,493
Speaker 2: as he'll have probably the quarterback record.

902
00:40:20,533 --> 00:40:22,732
Speaker 1: I mean, I have to think he's probably in the

903
00:40:22,812 --> 00:40:25,813
Speaker 1: vicinity on his way soon. So all right, My next

904
00:40:25,812 --> 00:40:30,453
Speaker 1: one on the list, he's the Commanders and the reason

905
00:40:30,533 --> 00:40:33,973
Speaker 1: is Jalen Jade Daniels. They probably if we were starting

906
00:40:33,973 --> 00:40:35,692
Speaker 1: this last year, they probably would have been one of

907
00:40:35,692 --> 00:40:38,293
Speaker 1: the bottom six or seven teams. They hadn't been interesting

908
00:40:38,332 --> 00:40:40,852
Speaker 1: in a long time. But he's fun. I'm gonna I'm

909
00:40:40,893 --> 00:40:42,452
Speaker 1: kind of wondering is they're gonna be a second year

910
00:40:42,533 --> 00:40:44,852
Speaker 1: curse for him, a lost c J. Stroud where he

911
00:40:44,893 --> 00:40:48,053
Speaker 1: takes sort of a drop. They had game after game

912
00:40:48,133 --> 00:40:50,292
Speaker 1: that they won at the end last year. I think

913
00:40:50,292 --> 00:40:53,613
Speaker 1: they're gonna take a regression this year. But Washington fans

914
00:40:53,652 --> 00:40:56,133
Speaker 1: are a big reason I have number ten. They've had

915
00:40:56,212 --> 00:40:58,652
Speaker 1: so little to cheer about that last year. They just

916
00:40:58,692 --> 00:41:02,493
Speaker 1: seem so happy, you know. They just I like people

917
00:41:02,533 --> 00:41:06,652
Speaker 1: who who are very happy in that stadium four and

918
00:41:06,692 --> 00:41:09,812
Speaker 1: a half hours from Washington, DC. So by the time

919
00:41:09,852 --> 00:41:12,973
Speaker 1: they get there and you know, they've had to trek

920
00:41:12,973 --> 00:41:15,772
Speaker 1: across the Oregon Trail to get to the stadium. I

921
00:41:15,852 --> 00:41:17,332
Speaker 1: like seeing them get to have a good time.

922
00:41:17,652 --> 00:41:19,493
Speaker 2: I had them just to spot away. So we're pretty

923
00:41:19,573 --> 00:41:23,453
Speaker 2: like minded here too. Obviously, Daniels last year getting the playoffs,

924
00:41:23,493 --> 00:41:25,213
Speaker 2: But like you said, there's a little bit of charm

925
00:41:25,252 --> 00:41:27,972
Speaker 2: when these teams that have sucked our entire lives are

926
00:41:28,133 --> 00:41:30,412
Speaker 2: are good, Like we have the Lions in the Super

927
00:41:30,413 --> 00:41:33,172
Speaker 2: Bowl conversation. I could remember a good Lions here before

928
00:41:33,172 --> 00:41:35,452
Speaker 2: he recently. Commanders, you'd have to go all the way

929
00:41:35,453 --> 00:41:38,493
Speaker 2: back to the early nineties. I mean, we Bengals. Some

930
00:41:38,533 --> 00:41:41,053
Speaker 2: of these teams that seemed like they were awful forever

931
00:41:41,493 --> 00:41:43,212
Speaker 2: have really served and it made last year fun to

932
00:41:43,252 --> 00:41:44,332
Speaker 2: watch with the Commanders well things.

933
00:41:44,332 --> 00:41:47,253
Speaker 1: I'll note that's interesting. Our top five most interesting teams

934
00:41:47,292 --> 00:41:50,613
Speaker 1: to watch all AFC teams, and then the next five

935
00:41:50,613 --> 00:41:54,932
Speaker 1: were NFC. So THEAFC is an objectively more interesting league

936
00:41:54,973 --> 00:41:58,093
Speaker 1: at the top than the NFC. But the NFC does

937
00:41:58,172 --> 00:42:01,812
Speaker 1: come in next. Give me a Washington Commanders.

938
00:42:01,332 --> 00:42:04,412
Speaker 3: That also includes the Titans, but here's your Commanders. I

939
00:42:04,413 --> 00:42:07,212
Speaker 3: hope the twenty twenty four Commanders were the most successful

940
00:42:07,252 --> 00:42:10,013
Speaker 3: fourth down team, not just last season, but in recent

941
00:42:10,292 --> 00:42:14,493
Speaker 3: NFL history. Washington covered eighty seven percent of their twenty

942
00:42:14,533 --> 00:42:16,173
Speaker 3: three fourth down at one flash.

943
00:42:16,252 --> 00:42:18,333
Speaker 1: That is a high number. Eighty seven percent.

944
00:42:18,493 --> 00:42:21,012
Speaker 3: Next closest was the twenty eighteen Saints, who had eighty

945
00:42:21,053 --> 00:42:23,133
Speaker 3: one percent of their sixteen attempts.

946
00:42:23,732 --> 00:42:25,772
Speaker 1: And they and Alvin Kamar at that time kind of

947
00:42:25,852 --> 00:42:28,812
Speaker 1: running forward and they had debo this year. That'll be fun,

948
00:42:29,372 --> 00:42:33,332
Speaker 1: so interesting. That's a see one sharp when he wants to,

949
00:42:33,372 --> 00:42:34,812
Speaker 1: when he focuses.

950
00:42:35,453 --> 00:42:37,533
Speaker 3: When I find the right one, when he comes to the.

951
00:42:37,573 --> 00:42:53,212
Speaker 1: Right ones goes all right, what's next for you?

952
00:42:54,453 --> 00:42:56,412
Speaker 2: This is one I can't believe I put here, but

953
00:42:56,493 --> 00:42:58,053
Speaker 2: I really think they're going to be exciting.

954
00:42:58,053 --> 00:42:59,093
Speaker 3: And that's the Vikings.

955
00:42:59,133 --> 00:43:02,652
Speaker 2: With JJ McCarthy making his debut a year too late.

956
00:43:03,133 --> 00:43:06,332
Speaker 2: I watched that entire Week one preseason game where they

957
00:43:06,332 --> 00:43:07,772
Speaker 2: got to see him for the first time after he

958
00:43:07,772 --> 00:43:10,652
Speaker 2: missed the whole year with injury in Minnesota. Was rocking

959
00:43:10,732 --> 00:43:12,133
Speaker 2: to see him on his first series.

960
00:43:12,372 --> 00:43:13,172
Speaker 3: He looked good there.

961
00:43:13,212 --> 00:43:15,573
Speaker 2: They didn't play him much in the preseason, but a

962
00:43:15,613 --> 00:43:18,093
Speaker 2: team that's been pretty good lately with Jefferson and all.

963
00:43:18,093 --> 00:43:19,973
Speaker 2: They've known that offense. Now we get to see McCarthy

964
00:43:20,013 --> 00:43:21,412
Speaker 2: go to it. So I'm just interested to see how

965
00:43:21,413 --> 00:43:22,093
Speaker 2: that looks well.

966
00:43:22,093 --> 00:43:25,053
Speaker 1: The exception of your boneheaded Titans pick. I've been in

967
00:43:25,093 --> 00:43:28,292
Speaker 1: the vicinity with you on all these JJ McCarthy, I

968
00:43:28,332 --> 00:43:30,133
Speaker 1: think is probably not going to be good, but I

969
00:43:30,172 --> 00:43:33,172
Speaker 1: want to watch it again. A lot of people dressed

970
00:43:33,212 --> 00:43:35,333
Speaker 1: up at these games. This is where you bring people.

971
00:43:35,332 --> 00:43:39,852
Speaker 1: Everybody sort of wears the fur, you know, they wear

972
00:43:39,933 --> 00:43:44,452
Speaker 1: fur on their shoulders like giant gonzales. And they come

973
00:43:44,493 --> 00:43:47,052
Speaker 1: in and they all are very hefty and and they wear,

974
00:43:47,133 --> 00:43:50,812
Speaker 1: you know, have shields. Some people will get swords in there.

975
00:43:51,212 --> 00:43:54,053
Speaker 1: Hard for me to surprise me. They let that through security.

976
00:43:54,332 --> 00:43:57,212
Speaker 1: That's what the shoulder are for. Keep it all safe here.

977
00:43:57,573 --> 00:44:02,252
Speaker 1: Everybody's armed, just in case something happens. The team itself,

978
00:44:03,013 --> 00:44:05,812
Speaker 1: you know, were great last year. I never believed they

979
00:44:05,852 --> 00:44:07,292
Speaker 1: were going to go to the super Bowl, and of

980
00:44:07,332 --> 00:44:09,692
Speaker 1: course they collapsed in the final week. But I'll be

981
00:44:09,692 --> 00:44:11,892
Speaker 1: interested to see what they do with JJ McCarthy. Very

982
00:44:11,973 --> 00:44:15,412
Speaker 1: rare though, to be the number one, what overall seed

983
00:44:15,413 --> 00:44:18,172
Speaker 1: in the playoffs, Number two and then just get ready

984
00:44:18,172 --> 00:44:18,772
Speaker 1: of your quarterback.

985
00:44:18,852 --> 00:44:21,172
Speaker 2: Yep, that's gonna be a fun division, and I know

986
00:44:21,212 --> 00:44:23,332
Speaker 2: your team's in it. As an outsider, I think all

987
00:44:23,372 --> 00:44:25,052
Speaker 2: those teams look look pretty good this year.

988
00:44:25,133 --> 00:44:27,532
Speaker 1: So I'll go next. This is number twelve for our group.

989
00:44:27,573 --> 00:44:29,852
Speaker 1: I'll take this. Well, first of all, give me a

990
00:44:29,933 --> 00:44:30,572
Speaker 1: Vikings fact.

991
00:44:30,893 --> 00:44:34,613
Speaker 3: Nearly fifty percent of Sam Darnold's dropbacks last year lasted

992
00:44:34,732 --> 00:44:38,692
Speaker 3: three plus seconds. The NFL average was thirty two percent.

993
00:44:39,413 --> 00:44:43,092
Speaker 3: So he holds out well, he had all the time

994
00:44:43,093 --> 00:44:44,012
Speaker 3: in the world back there.

995
00:44:44,093 --> 00:44:50,853
Speaker 1: Yeah, probably takes a pill for that, he can, probably

996
00:44:50,852 --> 00:44:53,452
Speaker 1: helps him. Okay, Well that's good. That's a long time.

997
00:44:53,732 --> 00:44:54,932
Speaker 1: I don't know is that good or bad?

998
00:44:54,973 --> 00:44:57,573
Speaker 3: Though it means you have a good offensive line. But yeah,

999
00:44:57,613 --> 00:44:58,293
Speaker 3: I don't know if.

1000
00:44:58,812 --> 00:45:00,292
Speaker 1: I mean he holds on the ball too long.

1001
00:45:01,533 --> 00:45:04,772
Speaker 3: Either or yeah. You don't have to read more about

1002
00:45:04,772 --> 00:45:05,492
Speaker 3: what Warren Sharp say.

1003
00:45:05,573 --> 00:45:08,813
Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll see what Lawren says. By the way, Warren,

1004
00:45:08,852 --> 00:45:11,213
Speaker 1: that color page you use for the Vikings very ugly,

1005
00:45:11,772 --> 00:45:15,252
Speaker 1: very ugly. That's what. That's a weird looking green. Let's

1006
00:45:15,292 --> 00:45:15,893
Speaker 1: go purple.

1007
00:45:16,053 --> 00:45:16,613
Speaker 3: That's purple.

1008
00:45:17,453 --> 00:45:19,332
Speaker 1: Oh you had it on something? Yes, all right? The

1009
00:45:19,332 --> 00:45:23,133
Speaker 1: Steelers Steelers they're going to be number twelve. For me?

1010
00:45:23,212 --> 00:45:25,852
Speaker 2: What this is gonna be our biggest discrepancy? Where'd you

1011
00:45:25,893 --> 00:45:26,772
Speaker 2: have thirty two?

1012
00:45:29,372 --> 00:45:32,252
Speaker 1: I think the Steelers are the worst team to watch

1013
00:45:32,493 --> 00:45:33,093
Speaker 1: thirty two.

1014
00:45:33,652 --> 00:45:36,133
Speaker 2: I do not care to see Aaron Rodgers this year.

1015
00:45:36,292 --> 00:45:40,093
Speaker 2: I've never liked the Steelers. If they're on my TV, Wow,

1016
00:45:40,372 --> 00:45:42,812
Speaker 2: turn on Gilded Age on HBO. I want nothing to

1017
00:45:42,852 --> 00:45:44,133
Speaker 2: do with the damn Steels.

1018
00:45:44,172 --> 00:45:47,573
Speaker 1: Steelers are the least interesting team to watch in the NFL.

1019
00:45:47,652 --> 00:45:50,413
Speaker 1: Last year we went to a Steelers game in Pittsburgh.

1020
00:45:50,613 --> 00:45:53,372
Speaker 1: Was yeah, it was fine, But then they go and

1021
00:45:53,413 --> 00:45:54,453
Speaker 1: aed Aaron Rodgers.

1022
00:45:55,133 --> 00:45:57,172
Speaker 2: I just can't do it. I want nothing to do

1023
00:45:57,212 --> 00:45:57,572
Speaker 2: with it.

1024
00:45:57,852 --> 00:46:03,652
Speaker 1: Wow. Well, first of all, thirty no one disliked Aaron

1025
00:46:03,692 --> 00:46:08,972
Speaker 1: Rodgers worse than me. Clearly you do. That's an amazing

1026
00:46:09,133 --> 00:46:12,133
Speaker 1: call by you to put them last. Let me give

1027
00:46:12,212 --> 00:46:15,332
Speaker 1: him the case for twelve. I like Mike Tomlin. If

1028
00:46:15,372 --> 00:46:18,252
Speaker 1: you were to look up the word stoic in the dictionary,

1029
00:46:18,332 --> 00:46:22,373
Speaker 1: it's gonna be Mike Tomlin. Facial expression never changes ever,

1030
00:46:22,772 --> 00:46:25,053
Speaker 1: like he's got the same look on his face. He

1031
00:46:25,133 --> 00:46:28,692
Speaker 1: looks mildly disappointed in his children at all times.

1032
00:46:28,973 --> 00:46:31,572
Speaker 2: I enjoyed that and he's looked the same for twenty years.

1033
00:46:31,652 --> 00:46:33,172
Speaker 2: I think if you took a picture of him from

1034
00:46:33,212 --> 00:46:34,932
Speaker 2: every season and you had to guess what year was,

1035
00:46:34,973 --> 00:46:35,493
Speaker 2: that you wouldn't know.

1036
00:46:35,533 --> 00:46:38,333
Speaker 1: They'd all look exactly. He does an age very exactly.

1037
00:46:39,413 --> 00:46:42,052
Speaker 1: If you watch a Steelers game is required by law.

1038
00:46:42,252 --> 00:46:44,613
Speaker 1: I think it is an executive order that was passed

1039
00:46:44,852 --> 00:46:47,372
Speaker 1: by Lyndon Baines Johnson that they have to say that

1040
00:46:47,372 --> 00:46:50,412
Speaker 1: they're blue collar. The words blue collar are coming out

1041
00:46:50,652 --> 00:46:54,012
Speaker 1: at some point. They're gonna say that during the game. Then.

1042
00:46:54,212 --> 00:46:56,892
Speaker 1: I love the fact that they have this team. They

1043
00:46:56,893 --> 00:46:59,893
Speaker 1: have winning record every year, no chance at ever finding

1044
00:46:59,933 --> 00:47:03,453
Speaker 1: a capable quarterback, not not even interested, Like they're just like,

1045
00:47:03,573 --> 00:47:06,772
Speaker 1: you know what since Roethlisberger? Hey can you play? Let's

1046
00:47:06,772 --> 00:47:09,972
Speaker 1: give you a shot. Hey Billy, Hey, Tate Ratley. You're right,

1047
00:47:10,852 --> 00:47:14,212
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, would you like to keep? Yeah? Aaron Rodgers,

1048
00:47:15,332 --> 00:47:17,252
Speaker 1: I know you might be on a podcast. Why don't

1049
00:47:17,252 --> 00:47:20,932
Speaker 1: you come join us? Uh and play? I think that's good.

1050
00:47:21,732 --> 00:47:22,133
Speaker 3: I do.

1051
00:47:22,493 --> 00:47:24,053
Speaker 2: I came off as a little hater there, and I

1052
00:47:24,093 --> 00:47:26,692
Speaker 2: am a bit of a hater. What Tomlin does there

1053
00:47:26,772 --> 00:47:29,133
Speaker 2: is pretty amazing. How they're in the mix, the defense,

1054
00:47:29,172 --> 00:47:32,453
Speaker 2: we all know the Steelers brand, but this year specifically,

1055
00:47:32,493 --> 00:47:33,452
Speaker 2: I just I can't do it.

1056
00:47:33,652 --> 00:47:37,572
Speaker 1: They're dead last. So I hate Aaron Rodgers so much

1057
00:47:37,692 --> 00:47:39,973
Speaker 1: that one of my friends for my birthday, which is today,

1058
00:47:40,013 --> 00:47:42,613
Speaker 1: by the way, because one of my friends got me

1059
00:47:43,613 --> 00:47:48,493
Speaker 1: an Aaron Rodgers like bobblehead. Okay, and it's an Aaron

1060
00:47:48,573 --> 00:47:54,053
Speaker 1: Rodgers Jets bobble all right. Now here's what's interesting about it.

1061
00:47:54,453 --> 00:47:58,613
Speaker 1: I said, Wow, they knew it would be like something

1062
00:47:58,613 --> 00:48:02,453
Speaker 1: I wouldn't like, and they said yeah. It was five dollars,

1063
00:48:04,252 --> 00:48:06,093
Speaker 1: so it was very cheap. Now here's what was interesting.

1064
00:48:06,973 --> 00:48:08,852
Speaker 1: It was Jets. And I looked at it and I go,

1065
00:48:09,413 --> 00:48:12,172
Speaker 1: why is it all green? And by all green, I

1066
00:48:12,212 --> 00:48:16,493
Speaker 1: mean his face is green, his hair is green, everything

1067
00:48:16,613 --> 00:48:21,772
Speaker 1: is green. And she said, I don't know. Then she

1068
00:48:21,812 --> 00:48:26,412
Speaker 1: looks up online. This was a Jets bibblehead and it

1069
00:48:26,613 --> 00:48:30,413
Speaker 1: said as a special for Aaron Rodgers one in fifty

1070
00:48:31,133 --> 00:48:36,133
Speaker 1: are all green. So I got a rare Aaron Rodgers.

1071
00:48:36,133 --> 00:48:42,013
Speaker 1: I got a one in fifty all green Aaron Rodgers

1072
00:48:42,252 --> 00:48:48,492
Speaker 1: Jets bobblehead. So I hate it, but I wonder do

1073
00:48:48,573 --> 00:48:50,892
Speaker 1: I have a steal? Is this like an antique road

1074
00:48:50,973 --> 00:48:53,292
Speaker 1: show thing? And only one in fifty are all green?

1075
00:48:53,652 --> 00:48:55,932
Speaker 2: Two things. That sounds like there was a misprint. They're

1076
00:48:55,973 --> 00:48:59,613
Speaker 2: trying to spin it to sell that batch and not

1077
00:48:59,652 --> 00:49:02,093
Speaker 2: lose anyone. Know what right back, you could just say

1078
00:49:02,133 --> 00:49:05,373
Speaker 2: it's day after ayahuasca trip. Aaron, he's a little sick. Now, fillwell,

1079
00:49:05,413 --> 00:49:07,332
Speaker 2: little green, We're coming back down to earth with the

1080
00:49:07,372 --> 00:49:07,852
Speaker 2: rest of us.

1081
00:49:07,973 --> 00:49:09,652
Speaker 1: I'm gonna bring it in here and show it to you.

1082
00:49:09,692 --> 00:49:13,692
Speaker 1: It's awful. You can't even really tell it's Aaron Rodgers

1083
00:49:13,732 --> 00:49:15,852
Speaker 1: because think about it. If you just had a statute

1084
00:49:15,852 --> 00:49:18,493
Speaker 1: and it was all green, how do you know what

1085
00:49:18,573 --> 00:49:22,892
Speaker 1: it looks like? And Aaron Rodgers going to give me

1086
00:49:22,933 --> 00:49:23,973
Speaker 1: a jab? Steelers.

1087
00:49:24,413 --> 00:49:27,252
Speaker 3: Speaking of Tomlin, he has led the Steelers to eighteen

1088
00:49:27,372 --> 00:49:29,292
Speaker 3: straight non losing seasons.

1089
00:49:29,372 --> 00:49:32,733
Speaker 1: Amazing. But also I think in fact everyone.

1090
00:49:32,413 --> 00:49:34,332
Speaker 3: Knows well Warren Sharp had it in his book.

1091
00:49:36,172 --> 00:49:38,573
Speaker 2: He uses more colors in there than the bottle hit.

1092
00:49:38,732 --> 00:49:41,332
Speaker 3: That's true, all right.

1093
00:49:42,212 --> 00:49:44,453
Speaker 1: I thought the fun fact was gonna be Mike Tomlin

1094
00:49:44,533 --> 00:49:47,973
Speaker 1: is the coach run back? They used towels, all right?

1095
00:49:48,013 --> 00:49:49,373
Speaker 1: Who's at number thirteen?

1096
00:49:49,812 --> 00:49:52,172
Speaker 2: Oh it's my pick, all right, lucky number thirteen. Let

1097
00:49:52,212 --> 00:49:53,813
Speaker 2: me get back on track. I got a little chaotic

1098
00:49:53,852 --> 00:49:55,692
Speaker 2: even though it was yours. Putting them at thirty two

1099
00:49:56,053 --> 00:49:59,613
Speaker 2: was wild. I have here the Green Bay Packers just

1100
00:49:59,772 --> 00:50:01,732
Speaker 2: exactly who I would have had we would have hit

1101
00:50:01,732 --> 00:50:03,613
Speaker 2: it the same time. I just mentioned that's gonna be

1102
00:50:03,652 --> 00:50:07,933
Speaker 2: a fun competitive division all this week that Jordan Loves

1103
00:50:07,973 --> 00:50:10,133
Speaker 2: Thumb's good to go. He has two thumbs. That's very

1104
00:50:10,172 --> 00:50:12,372
Speaker 2: important when your quarterback. Actually just the throwing win as

1105
00:50:12,413 --> 00:50:14,772
Speaker 2: all the needs. But Tom two thumb is gonna be

1106
00:50:14,772 --> 00:50:15,692
Speaker 2: the Packers quarterback.

1107
00:50:15,732 --> 00:50:16,013
Speaker 1: Mario.

1108
00:50:16,453 --> 00:50:17,972
Speaker 3: Look at that this guy.

1109
00:50:18,372 --> 00:50:20,092
Speaker 1: I mean, that was what Jordan Love would have said.

1110
00:50:20,332 --> 00:50:20,852
Speaker 1: That's not me.

1111
00:50:21,652 --> 00:50:23,372
Speaker 2: Good team though had a good year last year. I

1112
00:50:23,372 --> 00:50:25,293
Speaker 2: think Love's gonna take another jump. But the real reason

1113
00:50:25,332 --> 00:50:28,212
Speaker 2: they're right here. I said it before the show. Snow potential,

1114
00:50:28,332 --> 00:50:30,692
Speaker 2: A lot of snow potential here. This in Buffalo got

1115
00:50:30,692 --> 00:50:33,613
Speaker 2: a big bump for cold weather, snowy games.

1116
00:50:33,692 --> 00:50:37,732
Speaker 1: You pro are con wearing cheese on your head. Bro.

1117
00:50:38,093 --> 00:50:40,252
Speaker 2: We were blessed to go to a Lambeau game last year.

1118
00:50:40,332 --> 00:50:43,052
Speaker 2: I had an absolute blast. That's a bucket list I wanted.

1119
00:50:43,172 --> 00:50:45,093
Speaker 2: It was still cold, we had to sit on our cardboard,

1120
00:50:45,133 --> 00:50:46,932
Speaker 2: but that's a place where I'm going. I want the

1121
00:50:46,933 --> 00:50:49,573
Speaker 2: frozen tundra bring the weather and we were cold, but

1122
00:50:50,212 --> 00:50:51,533
Speaker 2: that can get real nasty.

1123
00:50:51,613 --> 00:50:53,973
Speaker 1: I was there for a week one last year with ESPN,

1124
00:50:54,533 --> 00:50:57,412
Speaker 1: and I'm the only person who's ever nearly passed out

1125
00:50:57,413 --> 00:51:01,533
Speaker 1: of heat exhaustion in lambeau Field. It was I believe

1126
00:51:02,093 --> 00:51:04,892
Speaker 1: one hundred and fourteen degrees and I decided to wear

1127
00:51:04,893 --> 00:51:07,772
Speaker 1: a hoodie. I don't know why, and I was so

1128
00:51:07,973 --> 00:51:11,732
Speaker 1: hot and and the Packers lost. It was it was

1129
00:51:11,772 --> 00:51:14,892
Speaker 1: brutal cool placed. I mean, like the best stadium and

1130
00:51:14,933 --> 00:51:19,533
Speaker 1: go to on television. I like it because you know,

1131
00:51:19,652 --> 00:51:23,052
Speaker 1: usually people are bundled up right there see their breath

1132
00:51:23,093 --> 00:51:24,933
Speaker 1: coming out, so you get to see how their cheeks

1133
00:51:24,933 --> 00:51:28,452
Speaker 1: get really rosy, you get to see the breath. There's

1134
00:51:28,453 --> 00:51:31,133
Speaker 1: always people on the sidelines. The other team always looks

1135
00:51:31,133 --> 00:51:34,413
Speaker 1: so sad to be there. One of the few stadiums

1136
00:51:34,413 --> 00:51:37,332
Speaker 1: you could see actual ice on the field right like

1137
00:51:37,372 --> 00:51:41,932
Speaker 1: you can see white ice. Packers games end up inevitably

1138
00:51:41,973 --> 00:51:44,492
Speaker 1: producing some of the best weather moments, so I'm with you.

1139
00:51:44,652 --> 00:51:46,692
Speaker 1: Whether the team was good or not, you can put

1140
00:51:46,732 --> 00:51:46,932
Speaker 1: them in.

1141
00:51:47,013 --> 00:51:49,692
Speaker 2: You remind me of someone about bundling up and blowing

1142
00:51:49,692 --> 00:51:51,732
Speaker 2: out your breath there. I like when the opposing team

1143
00:51:51,812 --> 00:51:54,412
Speaker 2: comes out without sleeves and it being tough. And then

1144
00:51:54,493 --> 00:51:56,372
Speaker 2: halfway through the first quarter, the guy that had his

1145
00:51:56,413 --> 00:51:58,852
Speaker 2: shirt off is completely bundled up and you can see

1146
00:51:58,893 --> 00:52:00,332
Speaker 2: the regret and his face. But they try to be

1147
00:52:00,573 --> 00:52:02,652
Speaker 2: the tough guys there in Lambeau in the beginning.

1148
00:52:02,732 --> 00:52:06,452
Speaker 1: Is there anywhere in America that sells those jackets they

1149
00:52:06,453 --> 00:52:10,013
Speaker 1: wear on NFL sidelines except the NFL Like those big,

1150
00:52:10,372 --> 00:52:15,613
Speaker 1: huge jackets. It's like a jacket a nineteen ten New

1151
00:52:15,692 --> 00:52:18,533
Speaker 1: York gangster would wear, except it's a football with a

1152
00:52:18,533 --> 00:52:21,133
Speaker 1: football logo, and it seems to be made of plastic.

1153
00:52:21,413 --> 00:52:23,893
Speaker 1: Usually yeah, the gangster versus saying.

1154
00:52:23,652 --> 00:52:25,493
Speaker 2: They had their Tommy guns in there, but this is

1155
00:52:25,573 --> 00:52:28,932
Speaker 2: just to cover I guess them pads and they're plastic.

1156
00:52:29,093 --> 00:52:31,053
Speaker 1: It doesn't feel like a comfortable jacket.

1157
00:52:31,493 --> 00:52:33,692
Speaker 2: Now certainly wouldn't fit in my closet, your luggage, but

1158
00:52:33,692 --> 00:52:35,093
Speaker 2: I guess it's necessary in Lamba.

1159
00:52:35,252 --> 00:52:37,573
Speaker 1: What's the Packers? What's their fact?

1160
00:52:37,652 --> 00:52:40,052
Speaker 3: The Packers ranked number one in the NFL last year

1161
00:52:40,093 --> 00:52:43,773
Speaker 3: in receiver air eight percent of passes were not caught

1162
00:52:43,812 --> 00:52:46,532
Speaker 3: by either drops, not getting their feet in bounds, or

1163
00:52:46,692 --> 00:52:47,252
Speaker 3: you know the.

1164
00:52:48,172 --> 00:52:53,453
Speaker 1: Route, So they are an air prone wide receiving George

1165
00:52:53,453 --> 00:52:54,212
Speaker 1: Love would put out.

1166
00:52:54,372 --> 00:52:56,613
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Jayden Reid was the worst out of all

1167
00:52:56,692 --> 00:53:00,053
Speaker 3: receiver eligible receivers. The second worst was mister Wicks on

1168
00:53:00,093 --> 00:53:00,893
Speaker 3: the same team.

1169
00:53:01,732 --> 00:53:04,813
Speaker 1: So the two worst wide receivers in football for airs

1170
00:53:04,812 --> 00:53:08,453
Speaker 1: were both on the same team. Yes. Wow, that's a problem.

1171
00:53:08,732 --> 00:53:11,813
Speaker 1: By the way, you just calling people out like Jayden Reid,

1172
00:53:12,772 --> 00:53:14,053
Speaker 1: Well you have something against you.

1173
00:53:14,093 --> 00:53:16,412
Speaker 3: I'm sure they're used to it. NFL players gotta have

1174
00:53:16,493 --> 00:53:16,932
Speaker 3: thick skin.

1175
00:53:17,252 --> 00:53:18,932
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, if you're going to be on this

1176
00:53:19,493 --> 00:53:22,252
Speaker 1: NFL Cover zero podcast, you gotta be ready for the

1177
00:53:22,292 --> 00:53:27,013
Speaker 1: heavy heat from Billy and the big phone. Be better

1178
00:53:27,053 --> 00:53:30,452
Speaker 1: start catching the ball every week, all right, So I'll

1179
00:53:30,453 --> 00:53:33,892
Speaker 1: go next fourteen. I'll put the Broncos, all right. The

1180
00:53:33,933 --> 00:53:36,012
Speaker 1: reason I say that they would not have been on

1181
00:53:36,053 --> 00:53:38,613
Speaker 1: this list for a long time. But the reason I

1182
00:53:38,613 --> 00:53:41,772
Speaker 1: put him is bow Nicks as fun. I'm expecting a

1183
00:53:41,852 --> 00:53:46,453
Speaker 1: bow Knicks massive regression year. Mark it down. I watched

1184
00:53:46,493 --> 00:53:49,652
Speaker 1: him play too much in college. He did crazy things,

1185
00:53:49,692 --> 00:53:54,412
Speaker 1: he made crazy decisions. Things just went too well in

1186
00:53:54,933 --> 00:53:57,452
Speaker 1: year one. I think it takes a I think it

1187
00:53:57,493 --> 00:54:01,813
Speaker 1: takes a step back. Sean Payton like him always looks

1188
00:54:01,812 --> 00:54:04,933
Speaker 1: when they show him on the sidelines, perplexed and staring

1189
00:54:05,013 --> 00:54:08,133
Speaker 1: up into the crowd. Every showing he always has a

1190
00:54:08,172 --> 00:54:10,893
Speaker 1: look of befuddlement, like and he's looking in the crowd

1191
00:54:10,933 --> 00:54:13,093
Speaker 1: like where's my family. I always see that when I

1192
00:54:13,093 --> 00:54:15,172
Speaker 1: play them or when they play. But I do think

1193
00:54:15,212 --> 00:54:18,573
Speaker 1: they're entertaining. I think bo Nicks is entertaining. Fourteenth bo

1194
00:54:18,692 --> 00:54:20,972
Speaker 1: Nix is very entertaining. I feel like I watched him

1195
00:54:20,973 --> 00:54:24,053
Speaker 1: play college football for forty two years. I feel like

1196
00:54:24,053 --> 00:54:27,053
Speaker 1: I grew up watching bow Knicks play quarterback. Speaking of

1197
00:54:27,053 --> 00:54:29,812
Speaker 1: Britain Deleage quarterback. By the way, in NFL history, with

1198
00:54:29,893 --> 00:54:32,253
Speaker 1: only five letters, when you add up to two.

1199
00:54:32,133 --> 00:54:33,932
Speaker 2: Names, it's gotta be one of the shortest names.

1200
00:54:35,372 --> 00:54:38,852
Speaker 1: I did this stat once Warren Sharp's book, but I

1201
00:54:38,852 --> 00:54:40,933
Speaker 1: did it last year. He's the only player in NFL

1202
00:54:41,013 --> 00:54:43,772
Speaker 1: history who's only had five Because you know, if you

1203
00:54:43,772 --> 00:54:48,133
Speaker 1: think about it, four is the minimum, right, because you

1204
00:54:48,252 --> 00:54:51,052
Speaker 1: just got a letter? Yeah, I mean I don't even

1205
00:54:51,093 --> 00:54:54,092
Speaker 1: know a human being with only two letters in each name.

1206
00:54:54,732 --> 00:54:58,812
Speaker 1: Mo By, I have one. Can you think of one?

1207
00:54:58,893 --> 00:55:00,772
Speaker 1: Can you think of anybody with only four letters in

1208
00:55:00,812 --> 00:55:01,172
Speaker 1: their name?

1209
00:55:01,292 --> 00:55:03,533
Speaker 3: I'll give you three, mister T.

1210
00:55:04,453 --> 00:55:07,093
Speaker 1: That's that's that's not a that's not a legal name.

1211
00:55:07,172 --> 00:55:08,772
Speaker 3: Oh you didn't say legal man.

1212
00:55:08,893 --> 00:55:10,973
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I don't think so. I with that. Bonnicks

1213
00:55:11,372 --> 00:55:15,573
Speaker 1: the fewest letters in their name of any NFL player

1214
00:55:15,732 --> 00:55:16,413
Speaker 1: in history.

1215
00:55:16,533 --> 00:55:18,172
Speaker 2: I just thought of another one that tas Bonicks. I

1216
00:55:18,212 --> 00:55:21,532
Speaker 2: don't have four have a fun tyd Low. I think

1217
00:55:21,573 --> 00:55:24,932
Speaker 2: his name is Tyrone Touche. I'll put that one back

1218
00:55:24,933 --> 00:55:27,613
Speaker 2: in the jar. But so there you go. Just a

1219
00:55:27,613 --> 00:55:30,212
Speaker 2: little fact for you while we're talking Denver quarterbacks. My

1220
00:55:30,212 --> 00:55:33,093
Speaker 2: favorite preseason moment happened this week. They cut Ben Denucci

1221
00:55:33,372 --> 00:55:36,133
Speaker 2: and he immediately went and did my favorite thing, airport beer.

1222
00:55:36,613 --> 00:55:37,253
Speaker 1: She's sweet.

1223
00:55:37,332 --> 00:55:39,732
Speaker 2: It said, nothing tastes better than getting cut by the

1224
00:55:39,852 --> 00:55:42,372
Speaker 2: NFL airport beer. It was a seventh time getting cut,

1225
00:55:42,413 --> 00:55:45,252
Speaker 2: and he tweeted his airport beer not a better beer

1226
00:55:45,252 --> 00:55:46,652
Speaker 2: in the world than the one at the airport.

1227
00:55:46,692 --> 00:55:48,172
Speaker 1: Did he go straight from being cut to.

1228
00:55:48,172 --> 00:55:50,133
Speaker 2: The airport and it's a seven time it's happened, And

1229
00:55:50,133 --> 00:55:52,493
Speaker 2: he tweeted his beverage, said you all wouldn't understand, but

1230
00:55:52,732 --> 00:55:55,253
Speaker 2: getting cut by the NFL airport beer is the number

1231
00:55:55,252 --> 00:55:57,613
Speaker 2: one beer. I haven't had the cut version, but I've

1232
00:55:57,652 --> 00:56:00,293
Speaker 2: had the airport version, and I'm same wavelength Ben.

1233
00:56:00,652 --> 00:56:05,493
Speaker 1: My friend Max Stuffy. He played punter for the University

1234
00:56:05,493 --> 00:56:08,212
Speaker 1: of Kentucky for people who don't know, and he tried

1235
00:56:08,252 --> 00:56:11,892
Speaker 1: out for the Broncos right, and uh it was it

1236
00:56:11,933 --> 00:56:13,573
Speaker 1: was a punting battle for years ago. It's him and

1237
00:56:13,852 --> 00:56:16,493
Speaker 1: somebody else. And I don't know if Max will be

1238
00:56:16,493 --> 00:56:18,093
Speaker 1: listening to this. Max, I'm sorry, I'm gonna say this,

1239
00:56:18,172 --> 00:56:21,693
Speaker 1: but he lost the punting battle. He still is very

1240
00:56:21,732 --> 00:56:24,853
Speaker 1: angry about the fact that he lost the punning battle.

1241
00:56:25,053 --> 00:56:27,412
Speaker 1: He insisted whoever it was the beating, that he was

1242
00:56:27,453 --> 00:56:29,572
Speaker 1: better than him. And I'm on Max's side, of course

1243
00:56:29,613 --> 00:56:32,333
Speaker 1: he's better than them. But what I like is Max

1244
00:56:32,493 --> 00:56:40,692
Speaker 1: blamed the altitude. He said that the altitude is what

1245
00:56:40,772 --> 00:56:43,932
Speaker 1: caused him to lose. And I would ask him, what

1246
00:56:43,973 --> 00:56:46,252
Speaker 1: do you mean. I mean, it's not like that guy.

1247
00:56:46,332 --> 00:56:49,212
Speaker 1: Other guy kicked in a different altitude and he was like,

1248
00:56:49,372 --> 00:56:53,492
Speaker 1: altitude doesn't work with how I kick. Not sure what

1249
00:56:53,533 --> 00:56:55,692
Speaker 1: it means, but I did make the point to him,

1250
00:56:55,893 --> 00:57:00,332
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to play in Denver regardless, but he

1251
00:57:00,732 --> 00:57:03,412
Speaker 1: Max will not go back to Denver because of that. Well.

1252
00:57:03,413 --> 00:57:06,452
Speaker 2: I remember we were passing through Denver on a trip

1253
00:57:06,533 --> 00:57:08,172
Speaker 2: last year with Max and he did, wanted to drive

1254
00:57:08,212 --> 00:57:10,332
Speaker 2: around it. I mean, weren't even do anything related to

1255
00:57:10,372 --> 00:57:13,453
Speaker 2: Mico's and didn't think you wanted to go through Denver

1256
00:57:13,493 --> 00:57:13,772
Speaker 2: at all.

1257
00:57:13,812 --> 00:57:14,933
Speaker 1: Tell me what you got? Fifteen?

1258
00:57:16,093 --> 00:57:18,452
Speaker 3: Uh you want a fact, get your checked in there.

1259
00:57:18,533 --> 00:57:21,093
Speaker 3: Sure they were ten and seven last year. In those

1260
00:57:21,133 --> 00:57:23,572
Speaker 3: ten wins, they only won one of those games by

1261
00:57:23,773 --> 00:57:24,293
Speaker 3: one score.

1262
00:57:24,573 --> 00:57:26,412
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that. If you're wanting to make a case

1263
00:57:26,453 --> 00:57:28,853
Speaker 1: for them to be better, their wins were not flukes

1264
00:57:28,933 --> 00:57:29,693
Speaker 1: last year. Yeah.

1265
00:57:30,213 --> 00:57:33,412
Speaker 3: By comparison, the Chiefs won fifteen games eleven yeah score games.

1266
00:57:33,453 --> 00:57:35,613
Speaker 1: So that there are people who would that's that is

1267
00:57:35,613 --> 00:57:37,892
Speaker 1: a good a good stamp. All right, what's next for you?

1268
00:57:39,253 --> 00:57:42,173
Speaker 2: I am might be wild colored, we'll see, but this

1269
00:57:42,213 --> 00:57:44,173
Speaker 2: will be one of the worst teams in football. But

1270
00:57:44,613 --> 00:57:50,133
Speaker 2: I Shadoor Sanders in Cleveland. The quarterback situation were interested, right,

1271
00:57:50,372 --> 00:57:52,452
Speaker 2: I mean, the Browns are gonna suck no.

1272
00:57:52,413 --> 00:57:53,333
Speaker 3: Matter who they go with.

1273
00:57:53,453 --> 00:57:56,533
Speaker 2: But you have forty five year old Joe Flacco and

1274
00:57:56,653 --> 00:57:58,773
Speaker 2: two rookies fighting for a spot. So I have the

1275
00:57:58,773 --> 00:58:00,133
Speaker 2: Browns here at fifteen.

1276
00:57:59,813 --> 00:58:01,213
Speaker 1: If that's a little higher than I had them, But

1277
00:58:01,253 --> 00:58:02,932
Speaker 1: I don't I don't think that's a crazy case. I

1278
00:58:02,933 --> 00:58:05,532
Speaker 1: mean the Chador drama, especially if we get to mid

1279
00:58:05,653 --> 00:58:09,133
Speaker 1: season and the Browns are two and six or something,

1280
00:58:09,413 --> 00:58:11,253
Speaker 1: then I think you get interested. Does he play? And

1281
00:58:11,293 --> 00:58:13,333
Speaker 1: then you got the Dylan Gabriel piece, like if they're

1282
00:58:13,333 --> 00:58:16,892
Speaker 1: probably gonna play Dylan Gabriel first with the Browns, will

1283
00:58:16,933 --> 00:58:18,693
Speaker 1: they give him a chance? Will the fans give him

1284
00:58:18,693 --> 00:58:20,573
Speaker 1: a chance? Or will they just be calling for Jador?

1285
00:58:21,053 --> 00:58:22,493
Speaker 1: You know a lot of these rookies, it takes a

1286
00:58:22,493 --> 00:58:24,412
Speaker 1: few games. He might you know, Dylan Gabriel might not

1287
00:58:24,413 --> 00:58:26,653
Speaker 1: even get the few games to give it a chance. So, yeah,

1288
00:58:26,653 --> 00:58:28,933
Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of interest in the Browns,

1289
00:58:29,053 --> 00:58:31,773
Speaker 1: another team where people are dressed up a lot home

1290
00:58:32,293 --> 00:58:33,053
Speaker 1: maybe the most.

1291
00:58:33,133 --> 00:58:34,413
Speaker 3: I mean they eat dog bones.

1292
00:58:34,493 --> 00:58:39,173
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you never know what Again, back to

1293
00:58:39,213 --> 00:58:41,493
Speaker 1: watching a game with a woman that doesn't like football,

1294
00:58:41,653 --> 00:58:44,133
Speaker 1: Turn on a Browns game, have him show the crowd,

1295
00:58:44,173 --> 00:58:46,533
Speaker 1: and then look at your woman's reaction. She'll be like,

1296
00:58:47,133 --> 00:58:50,093
Speaker 1: what are these people doing? Have they showered? Why are

1297
00:58:50,093 --> 00:58:52,613
Speaker 1: they dressed like that? And I'll go, well, they're the

1298
00:58:52,693 --> 00:58:56,053
Speaker 1: dog Pound and you'll they'll go why I thought their

1299
00:58:56,133 --> 00:58:59,853
Speaker 1: nickname was the Browns? And you don't really have an answer.

1300
00:59:00,133 --> 00:59:00,573
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1301
00:59:01,213 --> 00:59:03,333
Speaker 2: I have a good dog pound story. I know two

1302
00:59:03,333 --> 00:59:05,932
Speaker 2: guys in Ohio, one's Browns fans one's Bengals, and they

1303
00:59:05,933 --> 00:59:09,892
Speaker 2: did bet loser or the winner. No winner got to

1304
00:59:09,933 --> 00:59:13,093
Speaker 2: take the other one to their home team. The guy

1305
00:59:13,173 --> 00:59:15,253
Speaker 2: bought tickets and the dog pound, and the Bengals fan

1306
00:59:15,293 --> 00:59:16,972
Speaker 2: went and set in the dog pound. He didn't make

1307
00:59:17,013 --> 00:59:19,173
Speaker 2: it a quarter. It was so rough in his Bengals jersey.

1308
00:59:19,973 --> 00:59:20,693
Speaker 1: Bengals jersey.

1309
00:59:20,773 --> 00:59:22,572
Speaker 2: He didn't know they had dog pound tickets. He said,

1310
00:59:22,573 --> 00:59:24,893
Speaker 2: I'm taking the game. He was telling me his story.

1311
00:59:24,973 --> 00:59:26,613
Speaker 2: He made it a matter of minutes and had to

1312
00:59:26,613 --> 00:59:27,053
Speaker 2: get out that.

1313
00:59:27,173 --> 00:59:32,573
Speaker 1: People like hiding, not violent, but just barking, NonStop, reltless

1314
00:59:32,813 --> 00:59:34,852
Speaker 1: for being a Bengals fan right in the middle of it.

1315
00:59:34,973 --> 00:59:38,293
Speaker 1: I like that night. Then let's go for mine number sixteen. Well,

1316
00:59:38,493 --> 00:59:39,773
Speaker 1: first of all Browns fact.

1317
00:59:40,053 --> 00:59:42,333
Speaker 3: At this time last summer, the Browns were favored in

1318
00:59:42,533 --> 00:59:45,932
Speaker 3: nine games before the season started. This year, just one.

1319
00:59:46,893 --> 00:59:49,693
Speaker 3: They're only favored in one game one game this year. Wow.

1320
00:59:49,852 --> 00:59:53,253
Speaker 2: I have another Browns fact too, But the Pro Football

1321
00:59:53,293 --> 00:59:56,373
Speaker 2: Focus ranked the all players in the NFL and Miles

1322
00:59:56,413 --> 00:59:57,492
Speaker 2: Garrett was number one.

1323
00:59:58,293 --> 01:00:00,613
Speaker 1: I can see it. I can see it. Plus Joe Flacco.

1324
01:00:01,333 --> 01:00:03,653
Speaker 1: It's gonna be nice seeing a fifty eight year old quarterback.

1325
01:00:03,693 --> 01:00:05,733
Speaker 1: I want to see how that works out. He's old,

1326
01:00:06,173 --> 01:00:08,773
Speaker 1: he's kind of brittle. I love that image.

1327
01:00:08,813 --> 01:00:10,653
Speaker 2: I guess it's been two seasons ago where they had

1328
01:00:10,693 --> 01:00:12,573
Speaker 2: to call him out of retirement and he's like sitting

1329
01:00:12,613 --> 01:00:14,653
Speaker 2: coach in a Southwest flight on his way to save

1330
01:00:14,733 --> 01:00:17,372
Speaker 2: the team. Someone took a picture. He just looks like

1331
01:00:17,372 --> 01:00:19,372
Speaker 2: a dad on his way to Disney vacation. And then

1332
01:00:19,372 --> 01:00:20,733
Speaker 2: a few days later that I think he goes and

1333
01:00:20,733 --> 01:00:21,213
Speaker 2: wins the game.

1334
01:00:21,213 --> 01:00:22,253
Speaker 1: They made him fly coach.

1335
01:00:22,493 --> 01:00:25,533
Speaker 2: He's just amongst him on this flight to to you know,

1336
01:00:25,733 --> 01:00:27,573
Speaker 2: restart his career, and then I think ended up having

1337
01:00:27,573 --> 01:00:28,173
Speaker 2: a great run.

1338
01:00:28,493 --> 01:00:30,733
Speaker 1: I'm glad you're using the phrase amongst them. I think

1339
01:00:30,813 --> 01:00:32,693
Speaker 1: that's it's a good one. All right, I'm gonna go

1340
01:00:33,253 --> 01:00:38,892
Speaker 1: sixteen halfway point Tampa Bay. The reason I picked Tampa Bay.

1341
01:00:38,933 --> 01:00:41,452
Speaker 1: Baker Bayfield is fun. You know, you never know what

1342
01:00:41,533 --> 01:00:44,773
Speaker 1: make or playfield is gonna do. He scrambles around. I

1343
01:00:44,813 --> 01:00:49,693
Speaker 1: know that's Billy's team. Very attractive people in the stadium.

1344
01:00:49,733 --> 01:00:52,693
Speaker 1: That's another one. Like now again, another group of dressing

1345
01:00:52,813 --> 01:00:55,892
Speaker 1: up people. This is a lot of women dressing up

1346
01:00:55,893 --> 01:00:59,572
Speaker 1: as swashbucklers. You know women like to wear pirates, don't

1347
01:00:59,613 --> 01:01:02,253
Speaker 1: y'all have a festival? It's like they do down there.

1348
01:01:02,293 --> 01:01:04,173
Speaker 3: Well, there's a pirate ship in the stadium that they

1349
01:01:04,253 --> 01:01:04,493
Speaker 3: know that.

1350
01:01:04,573 --> 01:01:07,773
Speaker 1: But there's a festival in Tampa where everybody dresses his pirates, right.

1351
01:01:07,733 --> 01:01:10,533
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I imagine. So yeah, I don't know.

1352
01:01:10,613 --> 01:01:11,613
Speaker 1: I thought you lived there.

1353
01:01:11,693 --> 01:01:12,813
Speaker 3: I did for twelve years.

1354
01:01:12,893 --> 01:01:14,932
Speaker 1: It seems like you know about it. You remember the

1355
01:01:14,973 --> 01:01:15,933
Speaker 1: biggest festival.

1356
01:01:16,053 --> 01:01:17,573
Speaker 3: No, didn't remember the festival.

1357
01:01:19,852 --> 01:01:23,293
Speaker 1: I am fairly certain that there's a festival in Tampa,

1358
01:01:23,333 --> 01:01:26,293
Speaker 1: a big one where people dress up as pirates, and

1359
01:01:26,333 --> 01:01:28,733
Speaker 1: it feels like that's a fun dress up. So the

1360
01:01:28,773 --> 01:01:31,493
Speaker 1: combination of that in Baker hasn't met sixteen for.

1361
01:01:31,573 --> 01:01:33,012
Speaker 2: Me, what's a pirate's favorite letter?

1362
01:01:35,253 --> 01:01:35,412
Speaker 1: No?

1363
01:01:36,253 --> 01:01:36,613
Speaker 3: The sea?

1364
01:01:38,013 --> 01:01:40,933
Speaker 1: Thank you? Also like Tampa. I watched.

1365
01:01:41,573 --> 01:01:43,373
Speaker 3: I watched Tampa. I can't believe.

1366
01:01:43,693 --> 01:01:45,733
Speaker 1: I was so mad at you for telling that joke

1367
01:01:45,773 --> 01:01:47,733
Speaker 1: because it was so stupid, and then you actually had

1368
01:01:47,733 --> 01:01:48,213
Speaker 1: a good way.

1369
01:01:48,213 --> 01:01:49,653
Speaker 3: Everybody everybody goes for ar there.

1370
01:01:50,293 --> 01:01:52,773
Speaker 1: Take that one with you. But Gasparilla, that's the name

1371
01:01:52,813 --> 01:01:53,493
Speaker 1: of the festival.

1372
01:01:54,493 --> 01:01:55,972
Speaker 3: I have to check it out next time I'm down

1373
01:01:56,013 --> 01:01:56,412
Speaker 3: the next time.

1374
01:01:56,413 --> 01:01:58,013
Speaker 1: You're doing there for twelve years.

1375
01:01:58,253 --> 01:01:59,932
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was the first twelve though, so it wasn't

1376
01:01:59,973 --> 01:02:01,492
Speaker 3: like I chose where I was going.

1377
01:02:01,533 --> 01:02:03,653
Speaker 1: Oh you were a child, Okay, Yeah, still though, I

1378
01:02:03,653 --> 01:02:04,933
Speaker 1: feel like you should have heard of it. If I

1379
01:02:04,973 --> 01:02:06,133
Speaker 1: can pay the Bucks a compliment.

1380
01:02:06,533 --> 01:02:09,093
Speaker 2: I watched the entire Week one preseason game because they're

1381
01:02:09,133 --> 01:02:11,773
Speaker 2: playing the Titans, who are the fifth most likable watchable

1382
01:02:11,813 --> 01:02:12,613
Speaker 2: team in the NFL.

1383
01:02:12,653 --> 01:02:14,972
Speaker 1: But Billy, I think you guys are going to be good.

1384
01:02:15,013 --> 01:02:18,573
Speaker 1: The running backs are stacked, the rookies look good. Bucks.

1385
01:02:18,573 --> 01:02:19,892
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not gonna have him in the super

1386
01:02:19,893 --> 01:02:21,972
Speaker 2: Bowl conversation, but I think you're due for a fun year.

1387
01:02:22,093 --> 01:02:26,293
Speaker 1: It's another team where they mentioned an offensive lineman a lot.

1388
01:02:26,852 --> 01:02:31,573
Speaker 1: Tristan wors Yeah, there's never been a game where they

1389
01:02:31,613 --> 01:02:33,693
Speaker 1: don't bring up Tristan wors I don't know if he

1390
01:02:33,733 --> 01:02:36,733
Speaker 1: has I don't know if he has pictures that he holds,

1391
01:02:37,773 --> 01:02:40,372
Speaker 1: if he's got pictures of the announcers that he's threatening him,

1392
01:02:40,372 --> 01:02:42,613
Speaker 1: if they But Tristan Wurfs is mentioned a lot in

1393
01:02:42,733 --> 01:02:43,573
Speaker 1: game broadcasts.

1394
01:02:43,693 --> 01:02:45,173
Speaker 2: He's pretty good boy.

1395
01:02:45,253 --> 01:02:46,413
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's a great left tackle.

1396
01:02:46,493 --> 01:02:48,213
Speaker 1: All right, So give me a Bucks fun fact.

1397
01:02:48,733 --> 01:02:53,013
Speaker 3: Well, besides Mike Evans tying Jerry Rice for consecutive thousand

1398
01:02:53,053 --> 01:02:55,053
Speaker 3: yard seasons and looking to break the record this year,

1399
01:02:55,053 --> 01:02:57,253
Speaker 3: The twenty twenty four Bucks scored one hundred and fifty

1400
01:02:57,253 --> 01:02:59,213
Speaker 3: two points in the fourth quarter. That was the most

1401
01:02:59,253 --> 01:03:00,333
Speaker 3: in the NFL last year.

1402
01:03:00,813 --> 01:03:03,892
Speaker 1: Okay, well, they lose Liam Cohen as their offensive coordinator,

1403
01:03:04,173 --> 01:03:06,613
Speaker 1: so we'll see if they'll be able to keep it going.

1404
01:03:06,573 --> 01:03:08,972
Speaker 1: All We're gonna take a break right here. We are halfway.

1405
01:03:09,453 --> 01:03:11,973
Speaker 1: If you want to pause it and maybe go outside

1406
01:03:12,013 --> 01:03:14,653
Speaker 1: and mow your grass. That would be a weird thing

1407
01:03:14,693 --> 01:03:16,693
Speaker 1: to do, but nevertheless, we could take a little break.

1408
01:03:16,693 --> 01:03:32,932
Speaker 1: We'll be right back. He's the NFL cover zero. All right.

1409
01:03:33,413 --> 01:03:37,173
Speaker 1: Time for part two. We are doing our appointment watching teams.

1410
01:03:37,493 --> 01:03:40,133
Speaker 1: We've done the first sixteen. Let's go what's next, Drew,

1411
01:03:40,133 --> 01:03:42,532
Speaker 1: What's number seventeen? And we're starting to get into teams

1412
01:03:42,533 --> 01:03:44,253
Speaker 1: that are harder to watch. But what do you Got?

1413
01:03:44,973 --> 01:03:47,532
Speaker 2: I still like to watch this team occasionally, even though

1414
01:03:47,573 --> 01:03:49,213
Speaker 2: they ripped my heart out many years ago.

1415
01:03:49,372 --> 01:03:51,932
Speaker 1: But the Rams have some potential this year. I'm gonna

1416
01:03:51,933 --> 01:03:54,372
Speaker 1: put them here. I was close to having the you

1417
01:03:54,372 --> 01:03:55,333
Speaker 1: got them? About where I do.

1418
01:03:55,533 --> 01:03:57,973
Speaker 2: I feel a connection to Matthew Stafford right now, my

1419
01:03:58,053 --> 01:04:00,532
Speaker 2: back is killing me. He has back problems. I feel

1420
01:04:00,533 --> 01:04:02,893
Speaker 2: like if he can overcome his back problems, the Rams

1421
01:04:02,973 --> 01:04:06,293
Speaker 2: might have something. I'm dealing with that too, first first

1422
01:04:06,372 --> 01:04:08,333
Speaker 2: year without Cooper Cup since I don't know, since they

1423
01:04:08,333 --> 01:04:09,492
Speaker 2: were in Saint Louis, I don't know.

1424
01:04:09,533 --> 01:04:12,933
Speaker 1: But uh so, what is mad Stever's playing or not playing?

1425
01:04:13,013 --> 01:04:14,933
Speaker 1: He's not playing, he's got back problems.

1426
01:04:14,973 --> 01:04:15,892
Speaker 3: He's practicing again.

1427
01:04:16,053 --> 01:04:19,493
Speaker 1: Yeah, well so, I mean I have overcome those that

1428
01:04:19,613 --> 01:04:22,493
Speaker 1: problems can change day to day like their day. Like you,

1429
01:04:22,533 --> 01:04:24,333
Speaker 1: if you have back problems, you can one day feel

1430
01:04:24,333 --> 01:04:26,213
Speaker 1: like you can do the everything and the next day

1431
01:04:26,253 --> 01:04:30,852
Speaker 1: you can't move. Can can do either way. Uh. I

1432
01:04:31,933 --> 01:04:34,293
Speaker 1: think if the Rams, if Matthew Stafford, if you told

1433
01:04:34,333 --> 01:04:36,333
Speaker 1: me he was healthy all year, I think they're a

1434
01:04:36,413 --> 01:04:39,333
Speaker 1: dark horse super Bowl contender. If he's not, and it's

1435
01:04:39,333 --> 01:04:41,813
Speaker 1: a Jimmy G experience, then we're at step three of

1436
01:04:41,893 --> 01:04:46,852
Speaker 1: how'd your girlfriend? Because Jimmy G? I mean I want

1437
01:04:47,053 --> 01:04:50,333
Speaker 1: Jimmy G like your your girlfriend will will leave you

1438
01:04:50,372 --> 01:04:54,092
Speaker 1: in a heartbeat. I mean, he is arguably the most

1439
01:04:54,093 --> 01:04:56,813
Speaker 1: handsome person they ever play sports. Think about him, Brady

1440
01:04:57,933 --> 01:05:01,852
Speaker 1: by Jones, Those are the two most handsome people to

1441
01:05:02,013 --> 01:05:06,573
Speaker 1: em play to ever play sports. But Jimmy G. Part

1442
01:05:06,573 --> 01:05:08,492
Speaker 1: of me wants Jimmy G to play because people act

1443
01:05:08,533 --> 01:05:10,213
Speaker 1: like he stinks. I don't think he stinks.

1444
01:05:10,893 --> 01:05:13,293
Speaker 2: Listen, he's in LA We don't need Jimmy G going

1445
01:05:13,293 --> 01:05:15,053
Speaker 2: and leading them to the super Bowl. He's got enough

1446
01:05:15,093 --> 01:05:17,573
Speaker 2: going for him. We don't need him in former Hollywood.

1447
01:05:17,613 --> 01:05:19,453
Speaker 2: Kansas City's the new Hollywood.

1448
01:05:19,013 --> 01:05:20,253
Speaker 3: But in the old La La Land.

1449
01:05:20,333 --> 01:05:22,813
Speaker 2: We don't need Jimmy G becoming some A list celebrity

1450
01:05:22,813 --> 01:05:23,933
Speaker 2: because he's good at football.

1451
01:05:24,013 --> 01:05:28,333
Speaker 1: Like Sean McVay, he kind of looks like a guy

1452
01:05:28,372 --> 01:05:30,293
Speaker 1: who who would try to get you to sign up

1453
01:05:30,333 --> 01:05:33,173
Speaker 1: for P forty five class or whatever it is those

1454
01:05:33,213 --> 01:05:36,573
Speaker 1: things are. He's you know, he's always wearing the kind

1455
01:05:36,573 --> 01:05:39,173
Speaker 1: of muscle shirts, but apparently it seems like a very

1456
01:05:39,213 --> 01:05:43,213
Speaker 1: smart dude. They sort of create wide receivers out of

1457
01:05:43,852 --> 01:05:47,453
Speaker 1: you know, they just get tiny guys from anywhere and

1458
01:05:47,493 --> 01:05:48,213
Speaker 1: they end up good.

1459
01:05:48,613 --> 01:05:49,972
Speaker 2: Added DeVante Adams too.

1460
01:05:50,213 --> 01:05:53,293
Speaker 1: Yeah, so who didn't do a whole lot last year?

1461
01:05:53,333 --> 01:05:56,453
Speaker 1: I think with the with the name, but I enjoyed

1462
01:05:56,493 --> 01:05:58,892
Speaker 1: watching the Rams. Great You has been the greatest show

1463
01:05:58,893 --> 01:06:01,573
Speaker 1: on turf. A couple of times. I think they'll be

1464
01:06:01,613 --> 01:06:03,452
Speaker 1: good again this year, So I think this is a

1465
01:06:03,453 --> 01:06:04,133
Speaker 1: good spot for me.

1466
01:06:04,293 --> 01:06:05,813
Speaker 2: I have the greatest show on turf. You just took

1467
01:06:05,813 --> 01:06:07,653
Speaker 2: me back to that one yard stop when the Rams

1468
01:06:07,893 --> 01:06:10,733
Speaker 2: ripped my heart out. But not even just this year.

1469
01:06:10,773 --> 01:06:12,813
Speaker 2: With the Rams, they're usually on at four thirty. When

1470
01:06:12,813 --> 01:06:15,852
Speaker 2: we've gone through that first slate, I usually find myself watching.

1471
01:06:15,573 --> 01:06:17,813
Speaker 1: A Rams game. Give me a fun fact.

1472
01:06:18,453 --> 01:06:20,853
Speaker 3: Slow starts are the name of the game for the Rams.

1473
01:06:20,852 --> 01:06:23,773
Speaker 3: They ranked thirty first in first quarter points per game.

1474
01:06:23,813 --> 01:06:25,492
Speaker 3: That's down from tenth a year.

1475
01:06:25,893 --> 01:06:28,413
Speaker 1: Kind of amazing because on paper, you would think they'd

1476
01:06:28,413 --> 01:06:30,293
Speaker 1: be good at that. You know, you get this offensive

1477
01:06:30,333 --> 01:06:33,053
Speaker 1: genius who probably comes up with a scripted set of

1478
01:06:33,093 --> 01:06:35,693
Speaker 1: plays to start the game. You would think Sean McVay

1479
01:06:35,733 --> 01:06:37,173
Speaker 1: would be one of the best in the league. It's

1480
01:06:37,453 --> 01:06:38,973
Speaker 1: at scoring a lot of points at the beginning, but

1481
01:06:39,013 --> 01:06:40,852
Speaker 1: it just had it did not happen last year.

1482
01:06:40,933 --> 01:06:42,452
Speaker 2: It didn't and part of that, you know, he's got

1483
01:06:42,493 --> 01:06:44,412
Speaker 2: the coaching tree. I feel like half the league now

1484
01:06:44,453 --> 01:06:47,133
Speaker 2: their head coaches have got some connection to McVeigh. So

1485
01:06:47,852 --> 01:06:49,693
Speaker 2: he's been putting out a lot of a lot of

1486
01:06:49,733 --> 01:06:50,653
Speaker 2: coaches everywhere too.

1487
01:06:50,773 --> 01:06:53,452
Speaker 1: All right at eighteen, I'm gonna go with the Dolphins.

1488
01:06:54,093 --> 01:06:56,492
Speaker 1: That's who I had, Nicks. Look, we really did an

1489
01:06:56,413 --> 01:06:59,253
Speaker 1: amazing job if it wasn't for your stupid Titans pick.

1490
01:06:59,333 --> 01:07:02,813
Speaker 1: We've been pretty pretty good at putting where things where

1491
01:07:02,813 --> 01:07:06,333
Speaker 1: they are. I have the Dolphins here a couple things.

1492
01:07:06,493 --> 01:07:09,533
Speaker 1: Enjoy watching Tua. He does scare me. I don't like like,

1493
01:07:09,613 --> 01:07:12,412
Speaker 1: I just don't want even get hurt so much that

1494
01:07:12,533 --> 01:07:16,532
Speaker 1: it makes it hard. Mike McDaniel, I think I love

1495
01:07:16,573 --> 01:07:20,213
Speaker 1: to hate because I think he love. Oh you love

1496
01:07:20,293 --> 01:07:21,053
Speaker 1: Mike McDaniel.

1497
01:07:21,453 --> 01:07:24,493
Speaker 2: You've mentioned all these quarterbacks girlfriends might leave their brothers

1498
01:07:24,573 --> 01:07:28,293
Speaker 2: for my wife. If Mike McDaniel, I thinks Mike McDaniel's house,

1499
01:07:28,333 --> 01:07:31,012
Speaker 2: it's not so much it's that dorky funny, Like he's

1500
01:07:31,053 --> 01:07:31,653
Speaker 2: not funny.

1501
01:07:31,693 --> 01:07:32,852
Speaker 3: He's like a teenager.

1502
01:07:33,093 --> 01:07:34,093
Speaker 1: He's not funny at all.

1503
01:07:34,253 --> 01:07:36,253
Speaker 3: I think he's pretty funny, unintentionally funny.

1504
01:07:36,733 --> 01:07:38,773
Speaker 1: Okay, I'll give you that, But I think he thinks

1505
01:07:38,773 --> 01:07:40,333
Speaker 1: he's intentionally fun Yeah.

1506
01:07:40,372 --> 01:07:42,813
Speaker 2: He looks like a kid that just played a bunch

1507
01:07:42,813 --> 01:07:44,253
Speaker 2: of meden and they picked him up in like you're

1508
01:07:44,253 --> 01:07:44,733
Speaker 2: a head coach.

1509
01:07:44,813 --> 01:07:48,412
Speaker 1: Now. No, he looks like a kid who puts out

1510
01:07:48,413 --> 01:07:52,452
Speaker 1: a rap song in middle school and everyone laughs, and

1511
01:07:52,493 --> 01:07:55,453
Speaker 1: then he thinks he's a rapper, Like I mean, the

1512
01:07:55,493 --> 01:07:59,413
Speaker 1: way he dresses and all that, he's just he's ridiculous.

1513
01:07:59,533 --> 01:08:03,412
Speaker 1: And then those glad and he he's so I don't

1514
01:08:03,413 --> 01:08:05,773
Speaker 1: know's it's it's it's it's like a he's social. But

1515
01:08:05,852 --> 01:08:08,453
Speaker 1: then also at first I kind of thought he was cool,

1516
01:08:09,013 --> 01:08:11,693
Speaker 1: and now you know, you hear players kind of whispering like, okay,

1517
01:08:12,453 --> 01:08:14,412
Speaker 1: a little bit of a dork. So I don't know

1518
01:08:15,493 --> 01:08:18,093
Speaker 1: what The other thing that works against him is it

1519
01:08:18,293 --> 01:08:20,933
Speaker 1: only always feels like there's only fourteen to fifteen people

1520
01:08:21,173 --> 01:08:23,652
Speaker 1: at the games there that hurts them. It starts at

1521
01:08:23,693 --> 01:08:26,813
Speaker 1: one o'clock, most of the crowd gets there at two

1522
01:08:26,853 --> 01:08:29,652
Speaker 1: point thirty and the game is almost over. It just

1523
01:08:29,773 --> 01:08:33,333
Speaker 1: always seems to be really hot there. I'm sure it is,

1524
01:08:33,773 --> 01:08:36,333
Speaker 1: but Tula in and of himself is probably worth six

1525
01:08:36,452 --> 01:08:37,053
Speaker 1: or eight points.

1526
01:08:37,253 --> 01:08:40,932
Speaker 2: Tyreek walla. They got some playmaking. One pm in Miami

1527
01:08:41,053 --> 01:08:43,053
Speaker 2: is usually when people are leaving the club from the

1528
01:08:43,133 --> 01:08:46,213
Speaker 2: night before. That's why they're slow arrivers. With the McDaniel thing,

1529
01:08:46,253 --> 01:08:48,813
Speaker 2: I like, not so much when he's trying hard, but

1530
01:08:48,933 --> 01:08:50,893
Speaker 2: like there's there's bloopers of where he's walking in a

1531
01:08:50,973 --> 01:08:53,213
Speaker 2: stadium and the camera's following him and he'll just take

1532
01:08:53,213 --> 01:08:55,973
Speaker 2: off running trying to outrun the camera, or a little

1533
01:08:56,053 --> 01:08:58,532
Speaker 2: goofy things. In press conferences. He can be a little

1534
01:08:58,532 --> 01:08:59,773
Speaker 2: bit of a try hard but I like more of

1535
01:08:59,813 --> 01:09:02,772
Speaker 2: the unstry's more of the unintentional comedy.

1536
01:09:03,253 --> 01:09:05,053
Speaker 1: Right now, I know you've seen this, true because we've

1537
01:09:05,053 --> 01:09:06,572
Speaker 1: talked about it before. But if for those of you

1538
01:09:06,693 --> 01:09:10,933
Speaker 1: that have not ever seen it, take a minute go

1539
01:09:11,173 --> 01:09:13,692
Speaker 1: google Mike McDaniel's parents wedding photo.

1540
01:09:14,253 --> 01:09:15,333
Speaker 2: I'm going to do this right now. I don't think

1541
01:09:15,372 --> 01:09:15,773
Speaker 2: i've seen this.

1542
01:09:15,973 --> 01:09:18,293
Speaker 1: You do not seen this. Everybody needs to do that.

1543
01:09:18,412 --> 01:09:21,053
Speaker 1: Mario wants you to google Mike McDaniel's parents wedding photo.

1544
01:09:21,253 --> 01:09:23,013
Speaker 1: It's one of the great photos. It's one of those

1545
01:09:23,053 --> 01:09:26,293
Speaker 1: photos that kind of shows how like in America, anything

1546
01:09:26,372 --> 01:09:28,213
Speaker 1: could happen, because you look at that family and you go,

1547
01:09:28,973 --> 01:09:32,692
Speaker 1: can you imagine what that party was like? Like it's anything,

1548
01:09:32,973 --> 01:09:35,572
Speaker 1: And the dad looks to be one of the I

1549
01:09:35,612 --> 01:09:37,093
Speaker 1: will say this, his dad looks to be one of

1550
01:09:37,133 --> 01:09:38,333
Speaker 1: the coolest people I've ever seen.

1551
01:09:38,492 --> 01:09:39,492
Speaker 3: Yeahroh, I like.

1552
01:09:39,572 --> 01:09:42,013
Speaker 2: Mike McDaniel even more. I don't know how I've seen this.

1553
01:09:42,333 --> 01:09:45,572
Speaker 1: I mean, look at the dad. The dad is kind

1554
01:09:45,612 --> 01:09:48,013
Speaker 1: of awesome, And I just want to know what those

1555
01:09:48,093 --> 01:09:51,532
Speaker 1: two families talked about at the wedding. It feels like

1556
01:09:51,733 --> 01:09:54,892
Speaker 1: it feels like the table would have been very entertaining

1557
01:09:54,973 --> 01:09:56,812
Speaker 1: as you watch those two groups of people.

1558
01:09:56,653 --> 01:09:59,692
Speaker 2: Interact, do you think, yeah, absolutely, it's hard to look

1559
01:09:59,693 --> 01:10:00,133
Speaker 2: at dad.

1560
01:10:00,412 --> 01:10:02,532
Speaker 1: Mario pulled dad up there? Look at look at look

1561
01:10:02,572 --> 01:10:04,213
Speaker 1: at dad right there? Does he not look like a

1562
01:10:04,333 --> 01:10:06,973
Speaker 1: fun dude? Like put everything aside about his son? He

1563
01:10:07,133 --> 01:10:07,612
Speaker 1: looks like a.

1564
01:10:07,693 --> 01:10:11,973
Speaker 2: Fun dude now that I've seen photos of his family

1565
01:10:12,773 --> 01:10:14,013
Speaker 2: even higher on my list.

1566
01:10:14,333 --> 01:10:16,173
Speaker 3: As he go out, the swag is even higher.

1567
01:10:16,612 --> 01:10:20,053
Speaker 1: It is a swaggy family, all right, tell me about fun.

1568
01:10:20,133 --> 01:10:22,452
Speaker 3: Fact two has been pretty good at throwing the ball.

1569
01:10:22,612 --> 01:10:24,853
Speaker 3: Over the last three years. He's been number one in

1570
01:10:24,933 --> 01:10:27,853
Speaker 3: success rate and number two in completion rate on all

1571
01:10:28,013 --> 01:10:29,692
Speaker 3: passes fifteen yards down the field.

1572
01:10:30,412 --> 01:10:34,013
Speaker 1: Fifteen yards down the field. See see if you told

1573
01:10:34,093 --> 01:10:37,253
Speaker 1: me that stat with the way to have played, I

1574
01:10:37,293 --> 01:10:38,412
Speaker 1: would think he's been like.

1575
01:10:38,733 --> 01:10:41,933
Speaker 3: One of the worst. Yeah, I could thought how fast

1576
01:10:41,973 --> 01:10:42,612
Speaker 3: he throws it out.

1577
01:10:42,693 --> 01:10:45,053
Speaker 1: But what I'm saying is like if he is number

1578
01:10:45,093 --> 01:10:47,893
Speaker 1: one in the league. It passes over fifteen yards. I

1579
01:10:47,973 --> 01:10:50,812
Speaker 1: would think he's a dominant player because in my mind,

1580
01:10:51,253 --> 01:10:53,652
Speaker 1: he runs so much and the short pass is what

1581
01:10:53,813 --> 01:10:57,452
Speaker 1: he does well. So it's kind of amazing when you

1582
01:10:57,532 --> 01:10:59,572
Speaker 1: tell me that stat that he has not been played

1583
01:10:59,612 --> 01:11:01,692
Speaker 1: better than he has, You know what I mean, because

1584
01:11:01,693 --> 01:11:03,492
Speaker 1: I would have thought his weakness.

1585
01:11:04,572 --> 01:11:06,973
Speaker 2: That's mostly got to be Tyreek Hill is running as

1586
01:11:07,053 --> 01:11:09,013
Speaker 2: far as fast as he can and he's chucking, and

1587
01:11:09,053 --> 01:11:11,093
Speaker 2: I would say Tyreek was on the receiving end of

1588
01:11:11,173 --> 01:11:11,412
Speaker 2: many of.

1589
01:11:11,412 --> 01:11:14,253
Speaker 1: It probably right. Still, though, that's kind of an amazing stat.

1590
01:11:14,253 --> 01:11:17,053
Speaker 1: All right, what's next? Uh?

1591
01:11:17,333 --> 01:11:17,812
Speaker 2: Is this one?

1592
01:11:18,053 --> 01:11:18,532
Speaker 3: You know?

1593
01:11:18,813 --> 01:11:19,572
Speaker 1: You begs me.

1594
01:11:20,173 --> 01:11:26,253
Speaker 2: I'm standing Florida. I'm going with Duve. Okay, I liked

1595
01:11:26,492 --> 01:11:29,933
Speaker 2: I like the Cohen Lawrence there it is. I like

1596
01:11:30,013 --> 01:11:32,732
Speaker 2: the Cohen Lawrence connection. I think that might work, even

1597
01:11:32,773 --> 01:11:35,372
Speaker 2: though this is a divisional rivalry. For me, I think

1598
01:11:35,452 --> 01:11:37,932
Speaker 2: Lawrence might have a little life left now that Cohen's

1599
01:11:37,973 --> 01:11:40,692
Speaker 2: as head coach. And then of course Travis Hunter, if

1600
01:11:40,693 --> 01:11:43,213
Speaker 2: he's really gonna play both sides of the ball. Anyone

1601
01:11:43,293 --> 01:11:45,452
Speaker 2: that watches football wants to see how this is gonna work.

1602
01:11:46,293 --> 01:11:49,452
Speaker 1: Liam Cohen, for those of you not in Kentucky Land

1603
01:11:49,653 --> 01:11:52,692
Speaker 1: get ready because the Liam Cohen experiences. First of all, fun,

1604
01:11:52,733 --> 01:11:54,853
Speaker 1: I think he's a really good offensive coordinator. I think

1605
01:11:54,893 --> 01:11:58,373
Speaker 1: he's gonna really I mean, listen, he revitalized Baker Mayfield's

1606
01:11:58,412 --> 01:12:01,572
Speaker 1: career with the Rams. He obviously took him to another

1607
01:12:01,693 --> 01:12:04,213
Speaker 1: level in Tampa Bay. He's the reason Will lev has

1608
01:12:04,253 --> 01:12:07,772
Speaker 1: got drafted in the NF Draft. Here's the thing about him.

1609
01:12:07,893 --> 01:12:11,492
Speaker 1: Whatever he says to you, and don't believe it. When

1610
01:12:12,093 --> 01:12:16,133
Speaker 1: this is a tree, like there's nothing he can say that.

1611
01:12:16,412 --> 01:12:18,293
Speaker 1: I love him, but like, I'm not gonna believe it.

1612
01:12:18,372 --> 01:12:20,652
Speaker 1: Word he said. True story. When he took the Tampa

1613
01:12:20,693 --> 01:12:24,173
Speaker 1: Bay offensive coordinator's job, I put out a tweet where

1614
01:12:24,173 --> 01:12:26,053
Speaker 1: I was quoting a guy in Tampa Bay that said

1615
01:12:26,093 --> 01:12:29,013
Speaker 1: Liam Cohen was the leading candidate. I tweet out, Liam

1616
01:12:29,093 --> 01:12:32,933
Speaker 1: Cohen's the leading candidate for the Tampa Bay offensive coordinator job.

1617
01:12:33,093 --> 01:12:36,532
Speaker 1: He calls me up and he goes, where'd you hear that?

1618
01:12:37,053 --> 01:12:40,652
Speaker 1: That's crazy? That's not true. And I went, I mean

1619
01:12:40,733 --> 01:12:42,973
Speaker 1: it was a guy in Tampa and he was like, well,

1620
01:12:42,973 --> 01:12:44,692
Speaker 1: it's not true. I don't know why you put that out.

1621
01:12:45,053 --> 01:12:46,693
Speaker 1: Thirty minutes later, it was announced he was taking the

1622
01:12:46,733 --> 01:12:51,253
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator job, like he literally like, I mean you were.

1623
01:12:52,372 --> 01:12:54,013
Speaker 1: I mean it's like, did you think do you think

1624
01:12:54,013 --> 01:12:56,532
Speaker 1: I'm not going to exist thirty minutes from now? Like,

1625
01:12:56,653 --> 01:12:59,372
Speaker 1: what is the point of lying to me for thirty minutes?

1626
01:12:59,653 --> 01:13:00,973
Speaker 3: I think his old.

1627
01:13:00,853 --> 01:13:02,932
Speaker 2: Boston Lexi's and got a little bit of a surprise

1628
01:13:03,013 --> 01:13:03,893
Speaker 2: on that exit too.

1629
01:13:04,213 --> 01:13:06,893
Speaker 1: Well, y'all can put those pieces together. Why are the

1630
01:13:07,053 --> 01:13:10,652
Speaker 1: thirty minutes? It's like, man, you could have just ignored it.

1631
01:13:11,173 --> 01:13:13,492
Speaker 1: But so anyway, I like Liam calling I'm pulling for

1632
01:13:13,653 --> 01:13:16,973
Speaker 1: Duvall and then you have really good at that. Then

1633
01:13:17,013 --> 01:13:20,173
Speaker 1: you have Josh Allen. There are Josh Allen. But I

1634
01:13:20,253 --> 01:13:23,492
Speaker 1: don't I do not think he's the biggest truth teller

1635
01:13:23,572 --> 01:13:24,452
Speaker 1: in the world. Yeah.

1636
01:13:24,693 --> 01:13:27,253
Speaker 2: I know there's some some election and stories to back

1637
01:13:27,333 --> 01:13:29,612
Speaker 2: that up too, but uh, he is a good offensive

1638
01:13:29,653 --> 01:13:32,133
Speaker 2: coach and the Travis Hunter is the real reason there

1639
01:13:32,173 --> 01:13:33,133
Speaker 2: where they are in my list.

1640
01:13:33,253 --> 01:13:35,612
Speaker 1: All right, I'm gonna go next. This would be a number.

1641
01:13:35,693 --> 01:13:37,333
Speaker 1: First of all, tell me Jacksonville.

1642
01:13:36,893 --> 01:13:40,013
Speaker 3: Think fact this sentence has no other context along with it.

1643
01:13:40,653 --> 01:13:42,973
Speaker 3: Trevor Lawrence is one of the most sensitive quarterbacks to

1644
01:13:43,053 --> 01:13:44,532
Speaker 3: pressure over the last two years.

1645
01:13:44,733 --> 01:13:49,452
Speaker 1: Oh so they mean like feelings. Yeah, I'm not.

1646
01:13:49,492 --> 01:13:51,933
Speaker 3: Sure it's a bus according to Warren.

1647
01:13:52,013 --> 01:13:53,773
Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to assume that that Warren is not

1648
01:13:53,893 --> 01:13:57,532
Speaker 1: talking about football, like just in lives, like if if

1649
01:13:57,612 --> 01:14:00,973
Speaker 1: he faces a pressure field situation a little sensitive, he

1650
01:14:01,013 --> 01:14:03,652
Speaker 1: gets a little sensitive. And then so his wife is like,

1651
01:14:05,492 --> 01:14:07,173
Speaker 1: I need you to make a decision. Where are we

1652
01:14:07,213 --> 01:14:10,452
Speaker 1: sending our kids? Are we going to private school or

1653
01:14:10,532 --> 01:14:15,853
Speaker 1: public school? In Trevor's line, it just like, don't put

1654
01:14:15,853 --> 01:14:17,293
Speaker 1: this pressure on this too much.

1655
01:14:17,773 --> 01:14:18,452
Speaker 3: Don't try.

1656
01:14:20,933 --> 01:14:26,213
Speaker 1: Me now, you know, not to do this to be please.

1657
01:14:29,612 --> 01:14:30,572
Speaker 1: That's what I would assume.

1658
01:14:30,612 --> 01:14:33,652
Speaker 2: It's like, I feel like that was a great Trevor

1659
01:14:33,733 --> 01:14:34,492
Speaker 2: Laarrens personation.

1660
01:14:36,173 --> 01:14:40,213
Speaker 3: Sensitive Trevor, this is birthday.

1661
01:14:41,733 --> 01:14:44,572
Speaker 1: Read the line to get all pressure, what kind of pressure?

1662
01:14:44,733 --> 01:14:46,692
Speaker 3: I know he's just sensitive under pressure.

1663
01:14:47,013 --> 01:14:49,652
Speaker 1: Just what it says, He's just sensitive to pressure, no

1664
01:14:49,813 --> 01:14:50,372
Speaker 1: other content.

1665
01:14:51,253 --> 01:14:53,053
Speaker 2: I took it as it might be like physical touch,

1666
01:14:53,333 --> 01:14:55,732
Speaker 2: like can't sit through a deep tissue massage and possible

1667
01:14:55,853 --> 01:14:57,652
Speaker 2: you mean like literal pressure?

1668
01:14:58,053 --> 01:14:58,253
Speaker 3: I do.

1669
01:14:58,612 --> 01:15:01,133
Speaker 1: I do like that warn't sharp. I'm gonna think about

1670
01:15:01,173 --> 01:15:04,333
Speaker 1: that all year when things happen with Trevor Lawrence, I'm

1671
01:15:04,333 --> 01:15:06,853
Speaker 1: gonna be like the dude sensitive if he's coach to

1672
01:15:06,933 --> 01:15:13,492
Speaker 1: the trainer's table. Be careful, be careful with hey, hey, Liam,

1673
01:15:14,253 --> 01:15:18,733
Speaker 1: be nice. Things are hard, all right. The reason I

1674
01:15:18,813 --> 01:15:23,213
Speaker 1: had the Giants at twentieth oh me too, did right,

1675
01:15:23,973 --> 01:15:26,692
Speaker 1: is I think it's fun. I think the Giants are fun.

1676
01:15:26,733 --> 01:15:31,053
Speaker 1: First of all, again sad the sights of the Giants fans.

1677
01:15:31,412 --> 01:15:33,772
Speaker 1: When I watch a Giants game, the camera will pay

1678
01:15:33,813 --> 01:15:37,053
Speaker 1: to somebody. He'll just be shaking his head. It's just

1679
01:15:37,213 --> 01:15:40,133
Speaker 1: very angry, as anybody from New York knows. Getting to

1680
01:15:40,253 --> 01:15:44,492
Speaker 1: Giants Stadium is a herculean feet and you can see

1681
01:15:44,532 --> 01:15:46,093
Speaker 1: on their face they're like, I came all the way

1682
01:15:46,133 --> 01:15:49,293
Speaker 1: out here, and this is what we're gonna do. And

1683
01:15:49,492 --> 01:15:54,053
Speaker 1: now you throw into that the Russell Wilson experience, which

1684
01:15:54,733 --> 01:15:59,933
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson Giants fans that's not gonna work. And then

1685
01:16:00,053 --> 01:16:02,933
Speaker 1: Jackson Dart being sitting there right behind them the fans

1686
01:16:03,013 --> 01:16:04,853
Speaker 1: wanted to play. I think the Giants are gonna be

1687
01:16:04,933 --> 01:16:08,453
Speaker 1: entertaining to watch for this sort of anger purposes.

1688
01:16:08,693 --> 01:16:11,213
Speaker 2: How did you mention the craziness in that room? Didn't say, Jamis,

1689
01:16:11,293 --> 01:16:13,973
Speaker 2: I mean, it's what a That's true even with the

1690
01:16:14,053 --> 01:16:17,133
Speaker 2: Browns in the conversation there's no wilder qb room than

1691
01:16:17,173 --> 01:16:19,492
Speaker 2: what they have in New York. I don't think it's

1692
01:16:19,532 --> 01:16:21,733
Speaker 2: going to be a good year for them between the

1693
01:16:21,853 --> 01:16:24,293
Speaker 2: Jets and Giants. MetLife probably not gonna get a lot

1694
01:16:24,293 --> 01:16:27,733
Speaker 2: of wins this year, but watchable just because of the

1695
01:16:27,813 --> 01:16:29,933
Speaker 2: division they're in with a lot of good teams and

1696
01:16:30,093 --> 01:16:32,213
Speaker 2: what kind of chaos can come out of that quarterback room.

1697
01:16:32,412 --> 01:16:36,173
Speaker 1: Also, no game goes by where they don't mention Michael Straighthan.

1698
01:16:36,412 --> 01:16:40,572
Speaker 1: I think, by the way, can be on fewer shows.

1699
01:16:42,372 --> 01:16:45,013
Speaker 1: I don't think there's you know, my ex seems like

1700
01:16:45,053 --> 01:16:46,733
Speaker 1: a good guy to me, but like, I don't know,

1701
01:16:46,853 --> 01:16:48,492
Speaker 1: he needs to be on everything. I mean, there comes

1702
01:16:48,532 --> 01:16:50,612
Speaker 1: a point where you go, Okay, I've got I got

1703
01:16:50,693 --> 01:16:54,412
Speaker 1: my straight hand fixed, you know, I damn good good

1704
01:16:54,452 --> 01:16:56,173
Speaker 1: TV host. We don't need him on every chow. He

1705
01:16:56,213 --> 01:16:57,813
Speaker 1: didn't have to be on every channel all the time.

1706
01:16:57,853 --> 01:16:58,813
Speaker 1: Give me a Giants back.

1707
01:16:59,532 --> 01:17:02,652
Speaker 3: The Giants haven't had a ten win season since twenty sixteen.

1708
01:17:03,452 --> 01:17:07,893
Speaker 1: It's been that long. Wow, that's wild. So they haven't

1709
01:17:07,893 --> 01:17:10,692
Speaker 1: won team games since twenty sixteen.

1710
01:17:10,213 --> 01:17:10,973
Speaker 3: Ice a decade.

1711
01:17:11,372 --> 01:17:12,333
Speaker 1: One compliment to them.

1712
01:17:12,452 --> 01:17:14,612
Speaker 2: I think Abdul Carter is going to be one of

1713
01:17:14,653 --> 01:17:15,253
Speaker 2: those dudes.

1714
01:17:15,653 --> 01:17:18,652
Speaker 1: It was the league guys. I completely agree with you

1715
01:17:18,733 --> 01:17:19,452
Speaker 1: are you're up next.

1716
01:17:20,893 --> 01:17:24,893
Speaker 2: I went with the San Francisco forty nine ers here,

1717
01:17:25,452 --> 01:17:26,532
Speaker 2: you know, for your last year.

1718
01:17:26,612 --> 01:17:29,053
Speaker 1: But for a good team, this is very low. I

1719
01:17:29,133 --> 01:17:31,213
Speaker 1: mean they were in a super Bowl. Yeah, we were

1720
01:17:31,253 --> 01:17:33,612
Speaker 1: in Super Bowl two years ago, and then you got

1721
01:17:33,693 --> 01:17:36,173
Speaker 1: them at twenty first and with an offense with a

1722
01:17:36,253 --> 01:17:37,853
Speaker 1: coach that's pretty exciting by the way. I have them

1723
01:17:37,933 --> 01:17:39,173
Speaker 1: this low too, but it's crazy.

1724
01:17:40,213 --> 01:17:42,972
Speaker 2: Yeah, last year was weird with a lot of injuries.

1725
01:17:43,053 --> 01:17:45,333
Speaker 2: I mean, you go from being in the Super Bowl

1726
01:17:45,452 --> 01:17:47,372
Speaker 2: to where the we like four or five games of

1727
01:17:47,452 --> 01:17:49,372
Speaker 2: Lara bole year. So kind of the interest is just

1728
01:17:49,452 --> 01:17:52,093
Speaker 2: will they rebound? I've never Maybe it's because they're the

1729
01:17:52,133 --> 01:17:55,173
Speaker 2: West Coast at four thirty slot. I don't focus on

1730
01:17:55,293 --> 01:17:57,053
Speaker 2: those teams as much as I do the East Coast

1731
01:17:57,093 --> 01:17:58,093
Speaker 2: the one o'clock games.

1732
01:17:57,933 --> 01:18:01,932
Speaker 1: So I don't they're still playing on a baseball stadium

1733
01:18:02,412 --> 01:18:04,692
Speaker 1: that I know they don't, but I feel like they did.

1734
01:18:04,813 --> 01:18:06,612
Speaker 2: But this year especially, I want to see if they've

1735
01:18:06,653 --> 01:18:08,932
Speaker 2: really fallen off or if that was a blip last.

1736
01:18:08,853 --> 01:18:10,652
Speaker 1: Year and they can put it back together. I'm heavily

1737
01:18:10,733 --> 01:18:15,293
Speaker 1: invested in brock Party being overrated. I mean, they gave

1738
01:18:15,372 --> 01:18:17,333
Speaker 1: him all that money. I think it's a mistake. So

1739
01:18:17,492 --> 01:18:19,133
Speaker 1: part of me, I'm going to be rooting against him,

1740
01:18:19,133 --> 01:18:21,293
Speaker 1: which is not fair. Brock Party's never done anything to me,

1741
01:18:22,693 --> 01:18:25,372
Speaker 1: but I've just kind of been big on the Brock

1742
01:18:25,452 --> 01:18:28,612
Speaker 1: Party as a fluke. And you know, sometimes you just

1743
01:18:28,653 --> 01:18:31,093
Speaker 1: take an opinion so strongly you have to hang on

1744
01:18:31,293 --> 01:18:34,213
Speaker 1: to it. So I'm going to be actively rooting against

1745
01:18:34,333 --> 01:18:38,013
Speaker 1: them in all the games. Everyone gets hurt for them, though,

1746
01:18:38,452 --> 01:18:41,013
Speaker 1: I mean like they just stay hurt every year. Just

1747
01:18:41,093 --> 01:18:42,333
Speaker 1: everyone's hurt all the time.

1748
01:18:42,452 --> 01:18:44,412
Speaker 2: I have a soft spot for Brock Party because when

1749
01:18:44,412 --> 01:18:46,173
Speaker 2: he did lead them a couple of years ago, every

1750
01:18:46,253 --> 01:18:48,333
Speaker 2: game they'd do a graphic of what people are getting paid.

1751
01:18:48,773 --> 01:18:51,213
Speaker 2: It was just all these multi millionaires and like brock Party,

1752
01:18:51,492 --> 01:18:53,612
Speaker 2: you know, seventeen bucks in a Nuber ride home before

1753
01:18:53,612 --> 01:18:54,133
Speaker 2: we're paying.

1754
01:18:53,973 --> 01:18:57,853
Speaker 1: Him as criminally underpaid. That year we were so good. Yeah,

1755
01:18:58,013 --> 01:19:02,093
Speaker 1: well I don't. I mean, listen, Brock this isn't anything personal.

1756
01:19:02,133 --> 01:19:04,213
Speaker 1: I just want you to fail because I need I

1757
01:19:04,372 --> 01:19:07,173
Speaker 1: need to in a continued argument I have with people,

1758
01:19:07,213 --> 01:19:09,532
Speaker 1: I need to say they shouldn't have given him that money.

1759
01:19:09,572 --> 01:19:10,333
Speaker 1: Give me a forty nine.

1760
01:19:10,333 --> 01:19:12,572
Speaker 3: In fact, speaking of money, the forty nine Ers are

1761
01:19:12,612 --> 01:19:14,452
Speaker 3: one of two teams, along with the Eagles, to have

1762
01:19:14,612 --> 01:19:19,892
Speaker 3: seven players making at least nineteen million dollars each. Brock Purty, Bosa, IUK,

1763
01:19:19,973 --> 01:19:24,652
Speaker 3: Trent Williams, Fred Werner, George Kittle, and CMC.

1764
01:19:25,893 --> 01:19:29,693
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey. Do you know what CMC? Like, that was

1765
01:19:29,733 --> 01:19:30,572
Speaker 1: a weird thing to call?

1766
01:19:31,253 --> 01:19:32,133
Speaker 3: Oh it's his nickname.

1767
01:19:32,813 --> 01:19:34,412
Speaker 1: Boys do it run? CMC?

1768
01:19:35,452 --> 01:19:36,372
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, exactly.

1769
01:19:37,053 --> 01:19:38,812
Speaker 1: You didn't know who that was, right, You just read

1770
01:19:38,853 --> 01:19:40,652
Speaker 1: the That's what Warren Sharp said.

1771
01:19:40,773 --> 01:19:43,293
Speaker 3: Oh no, that's what I wrote down as an abbreviated

1772
01:19:43,452 --> 01:19:44,612
Speaker 3: Christian McCaffrey CMC.

1773
01:19:44,733 --> 01:19:45,492
Speaker 1: Yeah, Billy calls it.

1774
01:19:45,532 --> 01:19:47,372
Speaker 2: And just we went full names for every player. Then

1775
01:19:47,412 --> 01:19:48,492
Speaker 2: you're like, I'm a boy, CMC.

1776
01:19:49,813 --> 01:19:52,412
Speaker 1: I feel like Nick Bosa, he tell us what he

1777
01:19:52,492 --> 01:19:54,652
Speaker 1: thinks about the like I feel like, I don't know.

1778
01:19:56,412 --> 01:19:58,573
Speaker 1: I just feel like I don't really know his stances

1779
01:19:58,893 --> 01:20:00,612
Speaker 1: and I'm kind of curious. Do you know why he

1780
01:20:00,693 --> 01:20:02,053
Speaker 1: keeps him so close to the vest.

1781
01:20:02,572 --> 01:20:04,652
Speaker 3: I'm not sure. Okay, he should share.

1782
01:20:04,893 --> 01:20:06,773
Speaker 1: You should let us know because right now, I mean,

1783
01:20:07,053 --> 01:20:10,333
Speaker 1: at this point, I think we're not sure. I'm gonna

1784
01:20:10,372 --> 01:20:14,173
Speaker 1: go next here at twenty two with the Seahawks. I

1785
01:20:14,253 --> 01:20:16,492
Speaker 1: think I just like it because you know, I feel

1786
01:20:16,492 --> 01:20:19,013
Speaker 1: like they're always showing somebody pounding on a drum. I

1787
01:20:19,253 --> 01:20:22,412
Speaker 1: enjoy them. They added green to the colors. That that

1788
01:20:22,773 --> 01:20:24,973
Speaker 1: was a good good. They do have a good color scheme.

1789
01:20:25,013 --> 01:20:27,492
Speaker 1: They always tell me that the crowd is the twelfth Man.

1790
01:20:28,093 --> 01:20:29,973
Speaker 1: It feels like to me their crowd is similar to

1791
01:20:30,013 --> 01:20:33,133
Speaker 1: everywhere else. But I keep getting told that it's good.

1792
01:20:33,452 --> 01:20:35,612
Speaker 1: I know Geno Smith doesn't play for him anymore, but

1793
01:20:35,693 --> 01:20:39,013
Speaker 1: I like that they replace Geno Smith with what is

1794
01:20:39,093 --> 01:20:42,652
Speaker 1: basically just another version of Geno Smith with Sam Darnold.

1795
01:20:42,693 --> 01:20:44,612
Speaker 1: I like the idea of we're just gonna just keep

1796
01:20:44,773 --> 01:20:48,933
Speaker 1: doing that kind of thing. But usually the Seahawks are

1797
01:20:48,973 --> 01:20:53,973
Speaker 1: good for a one interesting late afternoon games. I'll put

1798
01:20:54,013 --> 01:20:56,772
Speaker 1: the Seahawks here because we're getting into bad territory.

1799
01:20:56,893 --> 01:20:59,293
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean some of these games, it's really a struggle.

1800
01:21:00,372 --> 01:21:03,572
Speaker 2: The Seahawks need some branding right now. I mean, they

1801
01:21:03,653 --> 01:21:05,732
Speaker 2: had the fun even with Russell, who's little bit corny,

1802
01:21:05,773 --> 01:21:09,412
Speaker 2: but like be Smoe with Marshawn for while, they've always

1803
01:21:09,452 --> 01:21:12,813
Speaker 2: had that. They had the second k DK, the secondary

1804
01:21:12,973 --> 01:21:13,372
Speaker 2: legion to.

1805
01:21:13,372 --> 01:21:14,333
Speaker 1: Boom there for a while.

1806
01:21:14,653 --> 01:21:16,812
Speaker 2: I don't really know what they're selling. Maybe they're selling

1807
01:21:16,853 --> 01:21:18,253
Speaker 2: the twelfth Man, but they need to get some of

1808
01:21:18,293 --> 01:21:20,772
Speaker 2: that back, some star power, or just bring back those

1809
01:21:20,773 --> 01:21:23,412
Speaker 2: awesome uniforms from the early nineties before they added the

1810
01:21:23,492 --> 01:21:24,053
Speaker 2: neon green.

1811
01:21:24,572 --> 01:21:26,853
Speaker 1: I've said this before in other places, but when I

1812
01:21:26,973 --> 01:21:31,853
Speaker 1: was a kid, ESPN got Sunday Night Football, Okay, And

1813
01:21:31,933 --> 01:21:34,572
Speaker 1: when ESPN got Sunday Night Football, they did a new

1814
01:21:34,853 --> 01:21:38,173
Speaker 1: commercial to get you to watch it. Paul McGuire was

1815
01:21:38,253 --> 01:21:40,933
Speaker 1: the color announcer for it, and they created a song

1816
01:21:41,733 --> 01:21:45,293
Speaker 1: and I remember no words of the song except one

1817
01:21:45,333 --> 01:21:46,652
Speaker 1: of the lines was there was a guy on the

1818
01:21:46,653 --> 01:21:50,572
Speaker 1: Seahawks named Cortes Kennedy, Okay, And in the song, I

1819
01:21:50,653 --> 01:21:54,053
Speaker 1: remember the line was something like, if you don't watch

1820
01:21:54,293 --> 01:21:58,013
Speaker 1: ESPN Sunday Night Football, they go, mister Cortes Kennedy will

1821
01:21:58,053 --> 01:22:01,492
Speaker 1: find your house, and they showed him like walking up

1822
01:22:01,492 --> 01:22:04,133
Speaker 1: to your door in a Seahawks uniform. And I was

1823
01:22:04,173 --> 01:22:05,133
Speaker 1: a little scared.

1824
01:22:04,853 --> 01:22:08,253
Speaker 3: As a child, a little traumatized for it.

1825
01:22:08,333 --> 01:22:11,133
Speaker 1: Was a little scared because Cortes Kennedy was a big guy,

1826
01:22:11,372 --> 01:22:13,612
Speaker 1: and since I didn't watch the Seahawks, I didn't really

1827
01:22:13,653 --> 01:22:17,492
Speaker 1: know who he was, and now fast forward thirty years later,

1828
01:22:18,293 --> 01:22:22,812
Speaker 1: I still sometimes will say, mister Cortez Kennedy, will find

1829
01:22:22,893 --> 01:22:26,293
Speaker 1: your house. I bet somebody can find that audio. The

1830
01:22:26,452 --> 01:22:29,532
Speaker 1: NFL's got it in their archives somewhere, so that I

1831
01:22:29,612 --> 01:22:32,253
Speaker 1: still stick with that. The Seahawks stays in my mind.

1832
01:22:32,372 --> 01:22:34,973
Speaker 2: That so, if not Cortez Kennedy. Right now, if you

1833
01:22:35,013 --> 01:22:37,452
Speaker 2: were sitting home the doorbell ring, which NFL player would

1834
01:22:37,452 --> 01:22:38,772
Speaker 2: you want to be at the door of the most.

1835
01:22:40,572 --> 01:22:44,372
Speaker 1: Entire last year just NFL player that I would, well,

1836
01:22:44,372 --> 01:22:48,372
Speaker 1: I'd want some. Probably Jason Kelsey. I feel like I

1837
01:22:48,412 --> 01:22:50,693
Speaker 1: feel very fun. I feel like he'd be cool to

1838
01:22:50,813 --> 01:22:53,572
Speaker 1: talk to, wouldn't be intimidating. It seems like he'd accept

1839
01:22:53,612 --> 01:22:56,372
Speaker 1: me for who I am without judging.

1840
01:22:56,933 --> 01:22:57,933
Speaker 2: He'd bring his own beer.

1841
01:22:58,293 --> 01:23:00,732
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I think I think Jason kell The other thing,

1842
01:23:01,093 --> 01:23:02,692
Speaker 1: when I went to law school, there's a guy named

1843
01:23:02,693 --> 01:23:05,492
Speaker 1: Teddy Werner who's now like CEO of the Milwaukee Brewers,

1844
01:23:05,532 --> 01:23:07,572
Speaker 1: but he went to Lost with me. I always found

1845
01:23:07,572 --> 01:23:10,933
Speaker 1: it interesting. His favorite player was Steve Largent, and he

1846
01:23:11,173 --> 01:23:16,652
Speaker 1: was very wealthy, dressed very well, handsome, like smart, but

1847
01:23:17,612 --> 01:23:21,732
Speaker 1: he would wear a Steve Largent jersey. The law school

1848
01:23:21,813 --> 01:23:24,772
Speaker 1: class all the time. I just found it so weird.

1849
01:23:25,053 --> 01:23:27,692
Speaker 1: We're duke law school, but man's walking into Steve Largent

1850
01:23:27,813 --> 01:23:30,293
Speaker 1: Jersey all the time. That's so those are the two

1851
01:23:30,333 --> 01:23:30,973
Speaker 1: things I know about.

1852
01:23:33,173 --> 01:23:34,853
Speaker 3: That's a great breakdown of Seattle this year.

1853
01:23:35,213 --> 01:23:36,333
Speaker 1: Who's neck? What's the next one?

1854
01:23:36,412 --> 01:23:37,013
Speaker 3: You want a fact?

1855
01:23:37,173 --> 01:23:38,013
Speaker 1: Yeah? Oh?

1856
01:23:38,372 --> 01:23:40,612
Speaker 3: On top of all those facts that just did, there's more.

1857
01:23:40,693 --> 01:23:43,253
Speaker 3: I got more. We talked about Sam Darnold, how he

1858
01:23:43,293 --> 01:23:47,533
Speaker 3: needs time right well, warrener Sharp's twenty twenty five rankings

1859
01:23:47,653 --> 01:23:51,213
Speaker 3: for Seattle by position, he has their offensive line thirtieth,

1860
01:23:51,933 --> 01:23:52,932
Speaker 3: so he needs.

1861
01:23:52,773 --> 01:23:54,133
Speaker 1: A lot of time and they don't have a good

1862
01:23:54,213 --> 01:23:57,492
Speaker 1: time correct. Interesting see you actually combined facts there. You

1863
01:23:57,612 --> 01:23:58,532
Speaker 1: kind of took Warren.

1864
01:23:58,773 --> 01:24:00,612
Speaker 3: I went a little above, and I was like Warren and.

1865
01:24:00,653 --> 01:24:05,372
Speaker 1: Billy molded into one fact, Like Phil is feeling himself

1866
01:24:05,412 --> 01:24:21,372
Speaker 1: now in these facts? All right, what's next? Twenty three?

1867
01:24:24,093 --> 01:24:24,612
Speaker 1: Twenty three?

1868
01:24:24,893 --> 01:24:26,572
Speaker 2: I don't love this pick here, but that's kind of

1869
01:24:26,733 --> 01:24:29,013
Speaker 2: territory in. I went with the Raiders. That's who I

1870
01:24:29,133 --> 01:24:33,173
Speaker 2: am kind of interested in the gentee experience and just

1871
01:24:33,253 --> 01:24:35,173
Speaker 2: the Vegas games can be fun because they got the

1872
01:24:35,213 --> 01:24:37,812
Speaker 2: little club there. You mentioned Miami in Vegas they really

1873
01:24:37,893 --> 01:24:39,932
Speaker 2: haven't been to bed yet when they're at their games.

1874
01:24:40,333 --> 01:24:42,853
Speaker 2: So just the whole Vegas experience and the curiosity in

1875
01:24:42,893 --> 01:24:44,572
Speaker 2: their rookie running back is why I have them here.

1876
01:24:44,653 --> 01:24:48,093
Speaker 1: Another great stadium for people dressing up, you know. I mean,

1877
01:24:48,173 --> 01:24:51,692
Speaker 1: although the Raider Nation they're they're wearing spikes again, how

1878
01:24:51,773 --> 01:24:55,452
Speaker 1: does that get through security? I've never totally understood. Love

1879
01:24:55,532 --> 01:24:58,372
Speaker 1: the Pete Carroll's there. That's what I'm excited about. Seventy

1880
01:24:58,412 --> 01:25:04,492
Speaker 1: three years old will headbutt you. He's so excited all

1881
01:25:04,572 --> 01:25:06,572
Speaker 1: the time. But in a way I don't find annoying.

1882
01:25:07,133 --> 01:25:09,492
Speaker 1: Like everything that you know, once you get past like

1883
01:25:09,973 --> 01:25:12,612
Speaker 1: a certain age, sometimes people slow down. You question. I

1884
01:25:12,653 --> 01:25:15,013
Speaker 1: don't question that. I think Pete Carroll could beat me

1885
01:25:15,173 --> 01:25:18,852
Speaker 1: up right now. And so I'm gonna watch the Raiders.

1886
01:25:19,333 --> 01:25:22,093
Speaker 1: Love the color scheme, love the fans, love Pete Carroll,

1887
01:25:22,093 --> 01:25:26,652
Speaker 1: as far as the players brought bowers really good instant

1888
01:25:26,653 --> 01:25:29,733
Speaker 1: see what happens ash and gent But otherwise, yeah, some.

1889
01:25:29,813 --> 01:25:33,293
Speaker 2: Young pieces on offense to go with Gino there. I

1890
01:25:33,452 --> 01:25:35,652
Speaker 2: love Vegas and it's it's fun watching them, But I

1891
01:25:35,973 --> 01:25:38,173
Speaker 2: do feel like the Raiders shouldn't have been the team

1892
01:25:38,253 --> 01:25:41,013
Speaker 2: there that they don't carry that Raiders brand like.

1893
01:25:41,093 --> 01:25:41,612
Speaker 1: They used to.

1894
01:25:41,933 --> 01:25:44,372
Speaker 2: It's a little more flashy and look at our Vegas

1895
01:25:44,412 --> 01:25:46,692
Speaker 2: strip now when they used to be the big intimidating team.

1896
01:25:46,933 --> 01:25:51,253
Speaker 1: Yeah, you it does feel a little not exactly what

1897
01:25:51,372 --> 01:25:53,813
Speaker 1: they what they should be. But I'm excited to have them.

1898
01:25:54,452 --> 01:25:57,933
Speaker 1: The Raiders are are, you know, relatively interesting. I will

1899
01:25:58,013 --> 01:26:01,733
Speaker 1: go right here. Fact I always have to remind me

1900
01:26:01,813 --> 01:26:02,173
Speaker 1: go ahead.

1901
01:26:02,893 --> 01:26:07,133
Speaker 3: Warren Sharp has has dove into rest advantage and disadvantage,

1902
01:26:07,253 --> 01:26:10,452
Speaker 3: and the Raiders have the number one largest net rest

1903
01:26:10,773 --> 01:26:13,892
Speaker 3: disadvantage this year at minus nineteen days.

1904
01:26:14,813 --> 01:26:15,932
Speaker 1: How do they how do they compete?

1905
01:26:16,532 --> 01:26:19,173
Speaker 3: Like when you have a game on Thursday night football

1906
01:26:19,333 --> 01:26:20,612
Speaker 3: and then you've got to turn it around.

1907
01:26:22,213 --> 01:26:24,812
Speaker 1: The other team will have nineteen more days of rest

1908
01:26:24,893 --> 01:26:28,293
Speaker 1: than they will. Yeah, I've heard people say that that's

1909
01:26:28,532 --> 01:26:32,333
Speaker 1: very important. I think where it plays in a lot

1910
01:26:32,452 --> 01:26:36,012
Speaker 1: is when a team plays on Monday night then versus Sunday,

1911
01:26:36,133 --> 01:26:39,293
Speaker 1: or even Saturday, or Sunday versus a Thursday, et cetera.

1912
01:26:39,452 --> 01:26:40,892
Speaker 1: So interesting.

1913
01:26:41,093 --> 01:26:43,973
Speaker 2: Raiders also have the problem. This happens in Nashville a lot.

1914
01:26:44,093 --> 01:26:45,733
Speaker 2: But you you're in that setting, you look up and

1915
01:26:45,813 --> 01:26:48,372
Speaker 2: it's mostly the away team because it's such a destination city.

1916
01:26:48,372 --> 01:26:50,093
Speaker 2: Who wouldn't want to go watch their NFL team in

1917
01:26:50,213 --> 01:26:52,772
Speaker 2: last problem? Yeah, so they always have a great turnout

1918
01:26:52,813 --> 01:26:53,372
Speaker 2: from the opponent.

1919
01:26:53,572 --> 01:26:55,452
Speaker 1: Well, another team that has that same problem, which I'm

1920
01:26:55,452 --> 01:26:58,213
Speaker 1: going to say is the Cardinals. I'm putting them next.

1921
01:26:58,412 --> 01:27:01,053
Speaker 1: The reason I'm putting them next, they're always involved in shootouts.

1922
01:27:01,612 --> 01:27:04,053
Speaker 1: They seem to pull up sets. And then Kyler Murray,

1923
01:27:05,213 --> 01:27:08,173
Speaker 1: assuming he's held at any given moment, fun to watch.

1924
01:27:08,412 --> 01:27:13,173
Speaker 1: He's just like a new big guy around with and

1925
01:27:13,293 --> 01:27:16,612
Speaker 1: it's very fun to watch him be little bitty uh

1926
01:27:17,013 --> 01:27:19,452
Speaker 1: and and I think he's excited. Hen't even though he

1927
01:27:19,492 --> 01:27:21,452
Speaker 1: sometimes does doesn't thing? You know, it never feels like

1928
01:27:21,492 --> 01:27:25,973
Speaker 1: to me his helmet fits though. Have you ever noticed

1929
01:27:26,013 --> 01:27:27,933
Speaker 1: it like goes down over his eyes. It feels like

1930
01:27:28,013 --> 01:27:29,933
Speaker 1: a lot. I just feel I think they could do

1931
01:27:30,093 --> 01:27:33,652
Speaker 1: one change to make him a better quarterback, just getting

1932
01:27:33,773 --> 01:27:36,213
Speaker 1: one smaller size on the helmets because it's just a

1933
01:27:36,333 --> 01:27:36,853
Speaker 1: little big.

1934
01:27:37,133 --> 01:27:40,692
Speaker 2: I think there's nobody that's more fun to watch scramble

1935
01:27:40,773 --> 01:27:43,372
Speaker 2: than Kyler Murray. He does like he just keeps going

1936
01:27:43,452 --> 01:27:46,133
Speaker 2: backwards and making defensive lineman trip over their own feet.

1937
01:27:46,893 --> 01:27:49,293
Speaker 2: This year, I think he probably have his best offense

1938
01:27:49,372 --> 01:27:51,572
Speaker 2: that he's had since he's been there. So if Murray's

1939
01:27:51,612 --> 01:27:53,492
Speaker 2: ever gonna work and really take him to another level,

1940
01:27:53,572 --> 01:27:54,572
Speaker 2: this might be the year he can do it.

1941
01:27:54,612 --> 01:27:57,013
Speaker 1: Have you've seen the picture of Marvin Harrison. You know

1942
01:27:57,173 --> 01:28:00,772
Speaker 1: he he looks like Batista? Yeah, I mean he's gotten huge,

1943
01:28:01,532 --> 01:28:04,492
Speaker 1: Like he's ripped, like you know how DK Metcalf used

1944
01:28:04,492 --> 01:28:06,372
Speaker 1: to look. That's how he looks. Now. I don't know

1945
01:28:06,372 --> 01:28:09,133
Speaker 1: if that's gonna make him good, but he's ripped.

1946
01:28:09,293 --> 01:28:09,452
Speaker 3: Well.

1947
01:28:09,492 --> 01:28:11,452
Speaker 2: When I said the offense has gotten better, I actually

1948
01:28:11,492 --> 01:28:13,652
Speaker 2: had that image of Marvin Harrison Junior in my head.

1949
01:28:13,813 --> 01:28:15,412
Speaker 1: He's gonna be a piece in that big piece in

1950
01:28:15,492 --> 01:28:16,772
Speaker 1: that will give me a fact.

1951
01:28:17,773 --> 01:28:20,652
Speaker 3: The head coach, Jonathan Gannon, is in his third year.

1952
01:28:21,213 --> 01:28:23,173
Speaker 3: He was the defensive coordinator for the Eagles before he

1953
01:28:23,253 --> 01:28:25,772
Speaker 3: was a head coach. Last year, their defense was twenty seventh.

1954
01:28:26,372 --> 01:28:28,933
Speaker 3: Their first year with Gannon, they were thirty second.

1955
01:28:29,452 --> 01:28:31,452
Speaker 1: So it got worse and it got.

1956
01:28:31,293 --> 01:28:31,973
Speaker 3: A little bit better.

1957
01:28:32,013 --> 01:28:37,293
Speaker 1: But if thirty second that he hasn't been related to Rich.

1958
01:28:37,213 --> 01:28:39,733
Speaker 3: Gannon, I don't know. I don't know that.

1959
01:28:40,412 --> 01:28:43,853
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter if he is. I just was. I

1960
01:28:44,013 --> 01:28:46,013
Speaker 1: just was curious, all right, So your next what do

1961
01:28:46,053 --> 01:28:46,333
Speaker 1: we got.

1962
01:28:48,452 --> 01:28:52,933
Speaker 2: I have maybe again maybe the worst team. I got

1963
01:28:52,973 --> 01:28:54,213
Speaker 2: three teams. I think it would be the worst, but

1964
01:28:54,253 --> 01:28:57,412
Speaker 2: I have the Saints here. Just how could you not

1965
01:28:57,532 --> 01:29:00,452
Speaker 2: have the Saints as the most boring? Well, they are boring,

1966
01:29:00,532 --> 01:29:01,893
Speaker 2: but I think that's why I want to watch them.

1967
01:29:01,893 --> 01:29:04,772
Speaker 2: I mean, the name Spencer Rattler, their starting quarterback, Ratler

1968
01:29:05,412 --> 01:29:08,293
Speaker 2: like collar shock when they made that that draft pick, right,

1969
01:29:08,492 --> 01:29:10,093
Speaker 2: is this really the answer? And I think we're going

1970
01:29:10,173 --> 01:29:11,812
Speaker 2: to learn that they are going to continue to suck.

1971
01:29:11,893 --> 01:29:13,612
Speaker 2: So it's more of a I just want to see

1972
01:29:14,013 --> 01:29:16,372
Speaker 2: how this Spencer Ratler experiment is going to work out.

1973
01:29:16,372 --> 01:29:17,852
Speaker 2: When they could have done better in the draft.

1974
01:29:17,853 --> 01:29:20,693
Speaker 1: I had them last. The reason I had them last is,

1975
01:29:20,853 --> 01:29:24,893
Speaker 1: first of all, always so dark in that state. I

1976
01:29:24,933 --> 01:29:27,452
Speaker 1: don't know why they don't turn more lights on. It

1977
01:29:27,612 --> 01:29:32,133
Speaker 1: feels like it is always so dark in there. That's

1978
01:29:32,213 --> 01:29:35,053
Speaker 1: part of it. They'll they'll do a shot from one

1979
01:29:35,053 --> 01:29:36,933
Speaker 1: of the endzones you can't even see the other end zone.

1980
01:29:37,093 --> 01:29:40,452
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's it's so they just need light.

1981
01:29:41,013 --> 01:29:43,853
Speaker 1: And then I don't think there's ever been in an

1982
01:29:43,933 --> 01:29:47,133
Speaker 1: NFL team where I know less players than I do

1983
01:29:47,253 --> 01:29:50,372
Speaker 1: the Saints. I don't know anyone on that team. I mean,

1984
01:29:51,053 --> 01:29:54,973
Speaker 1: who is on the team, Kamar, I think he still is, right?

1985
01:29:55,093 --> 01:29:55,372
Speaker 1: He is?

1986
01:29:55,933 --> 01:29:57,532
Speaker 3: And then who Chris Olave?

1987
01:29:57,933 --> 01:30:00,532
Speaker 2: Yeah, got Chris, Okay, he's still on the team. He's

1988
01:30:00,532 --> 01:30:02,652
Speaker 2: got Spencer Rattler throwing to him. It would be a

1989
01:30:02,693 --> 01:30:04,412
Speaker 2: great year for him, Spencer.

1990
01:30:04,532 --> 01:30:07,053
Speaker 1: The fact that you have Tyler Shuck and Spencer Rattler

1991
01:30:07,133 --> 01:30:08,893
Speaker 1: is joints is they're going to be off.

1992
01:30:08,973 --> 01:30:10,812
Speaker 2: And I left out the second part of my point.

1993
01:30:11,213 --> 01:30:13,372
Speaker 2: If Arch Manning actually looks good this year, it's going

1994
01:30:13,452 --> 01:30:15,853
Speaker 2: to be a tank watch for Arch kind of thing

1995
01:30:15,933 --> 01:30:17,532
Speaker 2: with them in the number one pick next year.

1996
01:30:17,893 --> 01:30:19,333
Speaker 1: But do we know Arch is good?

1997
01:30:19,452 --> 01:30:20,652
Speaker 3: No, I don't think he'll be that.

1998
01:30:21,253 --> 01:30:23,532
Speaker 2: But if he does live up to the billing, there

1999
01:30:23,572 --> 01:30:26,013
Speaker 2: will be a lot of Saints tanking to get the

2000
01:30:26,133 --> 01:30:26,732
Speaker 2: number one pick.

2001
01:30:27,013 --> 01:30:27,973
Speaker 1: Give me a Saints fact.

2002
01:30:28,133 --> 01:30:30,412
Speaker 3: The Saints defense may not be good, but they're ranked

2003
01:30:30,452 --> 01:30:34,213
Speaker 3: number one in generating offensive holds, and in fact, it's

2004
01:30:34,293 --> 01:30:36,213
Speaker 3: the third straight year they've been in the top three.

2005
01:30:37,733 --> 01:30:39,452
Speaker 1: See these are the stats that are just too deep

2006
01:30:39,492 --> 01:30:43,013
Speaker 1: for me. When you're who created the hole so that

2007
01:30:43,213 --> 01:30:45,652
Speaker 1: their first and generated offensive holds, which I would just

2008
01:30:45,693 --> 01:30:48,213
Speaker 1: sort of rite off is being random but then you

2009
01:30:48,333 --> 01:30:49,893
Speaker 1: tell me they've been in the top three for three

2010
01:30:49,933 --> 01:30:53,372
Speaker 1: straight years. That can't be random, so they must. I

2011
01:30:53,452 --> 01:30:57,133
Speaker 1: guess their defense is such that maybe they are quick twitch.

2012
01:30:57,452 --> 01:31:01,213
Speaker 3: Cameron Jordan, yeah, gets hold held all the time, or they.

2013
01:31:01,173 --> 01:31:03,333
Speaker 2: Teach them to, you know, grab the hands and kind

2014
01:31:03,333 --> 01:31:05,773
Speaker 2: of teach him to sell it a little bit.

2015
01:31:06,492 --> 01:31:08,253
Speaker 1: Well, I'm gonna be watching for that this year thanks

2016
01:31:08,293 --> 01:31:12,053
Speaker 1: to you and Warren. How many holds do they? Did?

2017
01:31:12,093 --> 01:31:15,452
Speaker 1: They draw? It was an interesting fact. I guess I'm

2018
01:31:15,452 --> 01:31:19,053
Speaker 1: on up next. I'm gonna go to the Patriots. I

2019
01:31:19,173 --> 01:31:23,693
Speaker 1: hate the Patriots mostly because of Bill Simmons. When I

2020
01:31:23,733 --> 01:31:26,253
Speaker 1: was growing up, my friend Trevor liked Washington, and I

2021
01:31:26,293 --> 01:31:29,053
Speaker 1: hated Washington even though I love Trevor, because I was like,

2022
01:31:29,093 --> 01:31:32,572
Speaker 1: I don't want Trevor to be happy. What you would

2023
01:31:32,572 --> 01:31:36,253
Speaker 1: think with your friend. I just didn't want him to

2024
01:31:36,253 --> 01:31:37,933
Speaker 1: be happy, So I wanted them to lose for them.

2025
01:31:38,133 --> 01:31:40,133
Speaker 1: I feel that way about Bill Simmons, not my friend,

2026
01:31:40,173 --> 01:31:42,173
Speaker 1: only many ones. Actually, you haven't man him at all.

2027
01:31:42,293 --> 01:31:45,412
Speaker 1: Talk to him one time and I listened to almost

2028
01:31:45,412 --> 01:31:49,732
Speaker 1: everything he does. But he's so annoyed about the Patriots

2029
01:31:49,853 --> 01:31:51,412
Speaker 1: that I want them to lose every game, and when

2030
01:31:51,452 --> 01:31:54,933
Speaker 1: they lose a big game, I just keep refreshing the

2031
01:31:54,973 --> 01:32:02,053
Speaker 1: podcast feed, waiting to mock him. So I don't want

2032
01:32:02,133 --> 01:32:04,492
Speaker 1: him to be good. I don't like Drake may. I

2033
01:32:04,572 --> 01:32:07,973
Speaker 1: don't like the uniforms people from Boston. Boston sports fans

2034
01:32:08,013 --> 01:32:12,692
Speaker 1: are usually arrogant, and so I'm anti Patriots. But they

2035
01:32:12,773 --> 01:32:14,492
Speaker 1: might be better, and that's why I don't have them last.

2036
01:32:15,053 --> 01:32:17,733
Speaker 2: I had them next here too. I also don't like

2037
01:32:17,813 --> 01:32:20,772
Speaker 2: the Patriots just you know too many people that latched

2038
01:32:20,813 --> 01:32:24,612
Speaker 2: on to that dynasty that pretend they're lifelong Patriots fans.

2039
01:32:24,612 --> 01:32:26,733
Speaker 2: I'm like, you're from western Kentucky. Why do you like

2040
01:32:26,813 --> 01:32:29,652
Speaker 2: the Patriots? However, I have a connection to the Patriots.

2041
01:32:30,452 --> 01:32:36,732
Speaker 2: My Peloton user name is bike Verbel, so big Verbel guy.

2042
01:32:37,333 --> 01:32:39,652
Speaker 2: I didn't want him to leave Nashville, and I want

2043
01:32:39,733 --> 01:32:42,053
Speaker 2: him to be happy. So even though I don't like

2044
01:32:42,173 --> 01:32:45,333
Speaker 2: the Patriots, I want my guys able to have a

2045
01:32:45,372 --> 01:32:45,852
Speaker 2: good career.

2046
01:32:46,452 --> 01:32:49,452
Speaker 1: Let's go back to bike. Yeah, so I'm gonna guess

2047
01:32:49,572 --> 01:32:51,412
Speaker 1: just I mean, let me guess. I'm gonna guess you'd

2048
01:32:51,452 --> 01:32:54,412
Speaker 1: got on Peloton during COVID, right, yeah, when we were hot,

2049
01:32:54,813 --> 01:32:57,572
Speaker 1: And do you have a Peloton still? Do, I'll you

2050
01:32:57,693 --> 01:33:02,772
Speaker 1: have it before covid. Uh No, you're one of those

2051
01:33:02,813 --> 01:33:06,532
Speaker 1: people that made the stock like shoot up. Yeah, all right,

2052
01:33:07,293 --> 01:33:10,893
Speaker 1: you're a clever guy. You like puns. How long did

2053
01:33:10,933 --> 01:33:12,333
Speaker 1: it take you to come up with Bike Rabel?

2054
01:33:13,733 --> 01:33:16,253
Speaker 2: Well, Bichel kid Gilchrist was too long. That was my

2055
01:33:16,372 --> 01:33:18,973
Speaker 2: first pick. Like I said, the Titans were hot in

2056
01:33:19,053 --> 01:33:20,772
Speaker 2: that area era kind of short.

2057
01:33:20,853 --> 01:33:21,013
Speaker 1: There.

2058
01:33:21,452 --> 01:33:24,213
Speaker 2: One thing that's interesting about it is I don't know

2059
01:33:24,213 --> 01:33:26,253
Speaker 2: if you all a peloton, but you can hide, you

2060
01:33:26,293 --> 01:33:29,253
Speaker 2: can high five just strangers, like go get them. There

2061
01:33:29,293 --> 01:33:31,173
Speaker 2: are a lot of people who I think think I'm

2062
01:33:31,253 --> 01:33:34,053
Speaker 2: Mike Rabel because I have his picture also as my picture,

2063
01:33:34,572 --> 01:33:35,893
Speaker 2: so I get it like it was.

2064
01:33:35,893 --> 01:33:37,253
Speaker 3: More so when it was Titans.

2065
01:33:37,293 --> 01:33:38,733
Speaker 2: But I get a lot of like tighten up, go

2066
01:33:38,853 --> 01:33:40,333
Speaker 2: get them, coach, and I just want to be like, no,

2067
01:33:40,412 --> 01:33:41,933
Speaker 2: it's just my username bike Rabel.

2068
01:33:42,013 --> 01:33:46,173
Speaker 1: But so you're doing like stolen valor on the bike

2069
01:33:46,532 --> 01:33:50,412
Speaker 1: from Yeah, I've actually never confessed this to anyone, but yeah,

2070
01:33:50,412 --> 01:33:53,573
Speaker 1: I'm bike Verbel on there for from. I still do Peloton,

2071
01:33:53,693 --> 01:33:55,692
Speaker 1: Like I know that was huge, but I don't talking

2072
01:33:55,693 --> 01:33:56,293
Speaker 1: about it anymore.

2073
01:33:56,372 --> 01:33:57,612
Speaker 2: It's been about a year and a half for me.

2074
01:33:58,412 --> 01:34:01,532
Speaker 2: So you stop paying the well, they have a lot

2075
01:34:01,532 --> 01:34:05,412
Speaker 2: of other stuff on there. You like stretches, stretch on it. Yeah,

2076
01:34:05,492 --> 01:34:07,372
Speaker 2: they did a bike on the bike like, once you're

2077
01:34:07,412 --> 01:34:09,253
Speaker 2: a peloton member, I can pull up on TV.

2078
01:34:09,452 --> 01:34:11,053
Speaker 1: I mean, do you have to? I mean you could

2079
01:34:11,093 --> 01:34:12,213
Speaker 1: stretch on your own, right.

2080
01:34:12,253 --> 01:34:14,372
Speaker 2: I am, But I like fit people to tell me

2081
01:34:14,452 --> 01:34:16,133
Speaker 2: I'm doing it, and I just kind of watch them

2082
01:34:16,372 --> 01:34:17,612
Speaker 2: and I'm like, well, he hasn't happened.

2083
01:34:18,412 --> 01:34:21,812
Speaker 1: Talked. There was a woman who got kind of TikTok famous.

2084
01:34:22,093 --> 01:34:24,452
Speaker 1: She was like, I think, an instructor, right, And she'd

2085
01:34:24,492 --> 01:34:26,692
Speaker 1: be facing you and she was very attractive and she'd

2086
01:34:26,773 --> 01:34:29,812
Speaker 1: like he should go, go, you should do this. Yeah,

2087
01:34:29,933 --> 01:34:32,693
Speaker 1: and then she'd be dancing and all this and I

2088
01:34:32,973 --> 01:34:36,013
Speaker 1: wasn't riding a bike, but she had me just moving

2089
01:34:36,053 --> 01:34:36,612
Speaker 1: in my chair.

2090
01:34:37,053 --> 01:34:40,133
Speaker 2: She works for ESPN now, really, Jen, I think is

2091
01:34:40,173 --> 01:34:40,492
Speaker 2: her name?

2092
01:34:41,173 --> 01:34:43,253
Speaker 1: Jen? What sims the.

2093
01:34:43,532 --> 01:34:46,293
Speaker 2: Peloton instructors are like? They all became their own little

2094
01:34:46,293 --> 01:34:47,293
Speaker 2: celebrities over time?

2095
01:34:47,813 --> 01:34:51,412
Speaker 1: Really? Yeah? Huh, Well good for her. I haven't seen

2096
01:34:51,412 --> 01:34:55,053
Speaker 1: her riding on the peloton on TikTok, but I was

2097
01:34:55,093 --> 01:34:58,213
Speaker 1: gonna buy a peloton during that period, Glad I just

2098
01:34:58,412 --> 01:35:00,812
Speaker 1: didn't because I thought you know what. A month later,

2099
01:35:00,893 --> 01:35:02,933
Speaker 1: I won't do it. I don't regret it, but I

2100
01:35:04,532 --> 01:35:06,093
Speaker 1: probably need to get back on it. It's been a while.

2101
01:35:06,213 --> 01:35:07,133
Speaker 3: Got to get the close off of it.

2102
01:35:07,293 --> 01:35:09,532
Speaker 1: All Right, you're next? Or what's First? Of all? What's

2103
01:35:09,532 --> 01:35:09,972
Speaker 1: the Patriots?

2104
01:35:10,013 --> 01:35:12,813
Speaker 3: Fact could be a good year for Vrabel. The Patriots

2105
01:35:12,853 --> 01:35:15,253
Speaker 3: have the easiest schedule in the AFC and the second

2106
01:35:15,333 --> 01:35:16,253
Speaker 3: easiest in the NFL.

2107
01:35:16,412 --> 01:35:19,293
Speaker 1: They do have a very easy schedule. The forty nine ers,

2108
01:35:19,293 --> 01:35:21,253
Speaker 1: who we talked about earlier, I think have the easiest game.

2109
01:35:21,173 --> 01:35:21,492
Speaker 3: Believe so.

2110
01:35:21,853 --> 01:35:25,213
Speaker 1: But the Patriots schedule. If they're decent, they could end

2111
01:35:25,333 --> 01:35:27,013
Speaker 1: up making the playoffs. All Right, what's next? We have

2112
01:35:27,253 --> 01:35:30,933
Speaker 1: six more? This would be I guess what? Twenty seven?

2113
01:35:31,133 --> 01:35:34,213
Speaker 2: Twenty seven, and I am going to Atlanta for the

2114
01:35:34,693 --> 01:35:38,893
Speaker 2: sophomore Michael Pennock's experience. I feel like Atlanta hadn't been

2115
01:35:38,933 --> 01:35:41,532
Speaker 2: good in a long time, and maybe he's given them

2116
01:35:41,532 --> 01:35:43,093
Speaker 2: a lot, a little bit of faith. They had some

2117
01:35:43,213 --> 01:35:46,933
Speaker 2: explosive games a year ago. Basically, with what's left on

2118
01:35:47,013 --> 01:35:49,253
Speaker 2: the board, I would turn to Atlanta if I'm watching again.

2119
01:35:50,412 --> 01:35:53,612
Speaker 1: Yeah, I haven't been really interested in Atlanta game since

2120
01:35:53,693 --> 01:35:58,693
Speaker 1: Michael Vick or the Dirty Bird dance. Think about the

2121
01:35:58,773 --> 01:36:01,612
Speaker 1: Falcons for me only means one thing, Chris Myers is

2122
01:36:01,653 --> 01:36:04,732
Speaker 1: going to be on my screen, you know Fox as

2123
01:36:04,773 --> 01:36:08,093
Speaker 1: Chris Myers only calls in NFC South games, and really

2124
01:36:08,133 --> 01:36:10,573
Speaker 1: I think he only CAUs Falcons game. I mean I've

2125
01:36:10,653 --> 01:36:14,692
Speaker 1: listened to him say welcome back to Atlanta, thirteen to ten,

2126
01:36:14,933 --> 01:36:18,333
Speaker 1: three minutes to go, Panthers have the ball. I think

2127
01:36:18,412 --> 01:36:24,333
Speaker 1: that's happened eighty three times in the last four years. Yeah,

2128
01:36:24,412 --> 01:36:27,053
Speaker 1: so I'm not I mentioned with Michael Pennis because he's

2129
01:36:27,093 --> 01:36:29,492
Speaker 1: so old as a as a second year player, and

2130
01:36:29,532 --> 01:36:32,412
Speaker 1: people forget him in that draft class. But this is

2131
01:36:32,412 --> 01:36:33,733
Speaker 1: about where I would have put him. I might have

2132
01:36:33,733 --> 01:36:36,692
Speaker 1: even put him lower. Billy, give me a Falcons. Yeah.

2133
01:36:36,773 --> 01:36:38,933
Speaker 3: Before the season last year, they signed Kirk Cousins to

2134
01:36:39,053 --> 01:36:41,452
Speaker 3: a four year, one hundred and eighty million dollars deal.

2135
01:36:41,773 --> 01:36:43,652
Speaker 1: He's still on the team. Like after they give after

2136
01:36:43,653 --> 01:36:45,053
Speaker 1: they get take his job, he's still on.

2137
01:36:45,053 --> 01:36:48,612
Speaker 3: The team, including one hundred million guaranteed. He went seven

2138
01:36:48,693 --> 01:36:52,013
Speaker 3: and seven and was benched to Michael Pennox, who they

2139
01:36:52,093 --> 01:36:53,372
Speaker 3: drafted with the eighth overall pick.

2140
01:36:53,853 --> 01:36:55,293
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's your fact.

2141
01:36:56,013 --> 01:36:58,333
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was it for Atlanta Warren.

2142
01:36:58,693 --> 01:36:59,933
Speaker 1: They Warren take Atlanta off.

2143
01:37:01,173 --> 01:37:03,812
Speaker 3: Well, it was more just like wow, that decision.

2144
01:37:04,173 --> 01:37:05,933
Speaker 2: Still, I'll give you one the habit one more than

2145
01:37:05,973 --> 01:37:08,293
Speaker 2: a games since twenty seventeen.

2146
01:37:09,733 --> 01:37:13,293
Speaker 1: Wow. So like the like the Cowboys and the Giants

2147
01:37:13,333 --> 01:37:16,532
Speaker 1: with those crazy stats in the NFC hasn't even been great.

2148
01:37:16,572 --> 01:37:18,692
Speaker 1: You would think they would happen. I guess I'll go next.

2149
01:37:19,333 --> 01:37:24,173
Speaker 1: I'll take the Jets again. Part of the reason I

2150
01:37:24,253 --> 01:37:26,933
Speaker 1: picked them, like with some other teams, sadness, I mean,

2151
01:37:26,973 --> 01:37:29,893
Speaker 1: the amount. And then there's guys who have the like

2152
01:37:29,973 --> 01:37:34,293
Speaker 1: the firemen, you know, and there's people that they play roles.

2153
01:37:34,412 --> 01:37:37,053
Speaker 1: It's kind of like they're their own celebrities at these games.

2154
01:37:37,452 --> 01:37:40,932
Speaker 1: Jets kind of like, you know, the village people of football.

2155
01:37:41,133 --> 01:37:43,652
Speaker 1: They have the Jets plumber, you have the Jets fireman.

2156
01:37:44,973 --> 01:37:47,532
Speaker 1: I am excited. I like Justin Fields. I got a

2157
01:37:47,532 --> 01:37:49,333
Speaker 1: soft spot in ma RT for Justin Fields because he

2158
01:37:49,372 --> 01:37:51,253
Speaker 1: was in Chicago. I want to see him do well.

2159
01:37:51,452 --> 01:37:55,412
Speaker 1: And then that defense is really good. Their defense is awesome,

2160
01:37:55,933 --> 01:37:59,412
Speaker 1: and I do have to assume that when they hold

2161
01:37:59,492 --> 01:38:02,093
Speaker 1: teams to fifty yards and still they have to be

2162
01:38:02,253 --> 01:38:04,572
Speaker 1: so angry at the offense. I would love to be

2163
01:38:04,653 --> 01:38:06,333
Speaker 1: in the locker room when the Jets defense is just

2164
01:38:06,572 --> 01:38:08,972
Speaker 1: furious at the offensive.

2165
01:38:09,333 --> 01:38:11,612
Speaker 2: I do love some Sauce Gardner one of the better

2166
01:38:11,693 --> 01:38:14,772
Speaker 2: personalities in the league. But if you're watching the Jets

2167
01:38:14,813 --> 01:38:17,532
Speaker 2: this year, you're probably just checking on fields. They're not

2168
01:38:17,733 --> 01:38:20,452
Speaker 2: gonna be good. Might win fourteen if it is good.

2169
01:38:21,173 --> 01:38:22,053
Speaker 1: I actually.

2170
01:38:23,333 --> 01:38:23,372
Speaker 3: It.

2171
01:38:24,133 --> 01:38:26,732
Speaker 1: I think they win seven or eight. I think they're

2172
01:38:26,733 --> 01:38:30,612
Speaker 1: gonna surprise you because I think justin fields isn't as

2173
01:38:30,653 --> 01:38:32,772
Speaker 1: bad as people think, and I think that defense is great.

2174
01:38:33,653 --> 01:38:37,293
Speaker 2: So their schedule, though, is not doing the many favors

2175
01:38:37,372 --> 01:38:39,612
Speaker 2: in that division in some of the other games of him.

2176
01:38:39,693 --> 01:38:41,813
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I'm gonna take your I don't know

2177
01:38:41,853 --> 01:38:43,853
Speaker 1: what the over under is, but assuming it's probably like

2178
01:38:43,933 --> 01:38:45,572
Speaker 1: five and a half or something like that, I'm gonna

2179
01:38:45,572 --> 01:38:47,053
Speaker 1: take the over. I give me a Jets. Fact.

2180
01:38:47,133 --> 01:38:49,612
Speaker 3: We've been talking streaks. The Giants were the one that

2181
01:38:49,733 --> 01:38:52,253
Speaker 3: haven't had a ten win season since twenty sixteen. It's

2182
01:38:52,333 --> 01:38:55,852
Speaker 3: the Jets that haven't had a winning season since twenty fifteen.

2183
01:38:57,333 --> 01:39:01,813
Speaker 1: Wow, it's sad. I just I just I want good

2184
01:39:01,853 --> 01:39:05,892
Speaker 1: things for the secondary teams in New York. I always

2185
01:39:05,933 --> 01:39:10,293
Speaker 1: feel bad for the Jets, the Mets, the Mets, the Nets.

2186
01:39:11,093 --> 01:39:14,733
Speaker 1: They all rhyme the Jets, the Mets, the Nets, the Islanders.

2187
01:39:15,452 --> 01:39:17,372
Speaker 1: I can always feel sorry for those people because it

2188
01:39:17,452 --> 01:39:20,293
Speaker 1: feels like the Devils. They're also I guess that's the

2189
01:39:20,412 --> 01:39:23,692
Speaker 1: New Jersey Devils, and I feel like those people they

2190
01:39:23,813 --> 01:39:26,652
Speaker 1: always have to look at big Brother being rude to them.

2191
01:39:27,572 --> 01:39:28,572
Speaker 1: I feel some sympathy.

2192
01:39:28,893 --> 01:39:30,612
Speaker 2: I do too, And I know some of it's just

2193
01:39:30,693 --> 01:39:32,013
Speaker 2: kind of where you grew up in New York, but

2194
01:39:32,053 --> 01:39:33,652
Speaker 2: you also had an opportunity to pick one of the

2195
01:39:33,693 --> 01:39:35,532
Speaker 2: other ones, and you no one was going to say anything.

2196
01:39:35,532 --> 01:39:37,093
Speaker 2: If you're from New York and you like the Yankees,

2197
01:39:37,133 --> 01:39:38,773
Speaker 2: no one's gonna call you out. But it's like you

2198
01:39:38,893 --> 01:39:39,772
Speaker 2: chose that existence.

2199
01:39:39,853 --> 01:39:42,173
Speaker 1: I think some of it is like kids like rhymes,

2200
01:39:42,893 --> 01:39:44,452
Speaker 1: that could be it well, easier to teach the kids

2201
01:39:44,492 --> 01:39:49,613
Speaker 1: the Jets, Nets, Mets, it's easy when you have Rangers,

2202
01:39:50,452 --> 01:39:53,053
Speaker 1: Nicks gets harder. That's got to be it.

2203
01:39:53,293 --> 01:39:56,052
Speaker 3: That's the reason the Yankees Yankees.

2204
01:39:56,333 --> 01:40:01,732
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, you're next. I have the Houston Texans next.

2205
01:40:01,813 --> 01:40:04,812
Speaker 1: What is okay? So let's wear twenty nine. The Texans

2206
01:40:04,853 --> 01:40:09,213
Speaker 1: are legitimately good, and they are so boring that even

2207
01:40:09,213 --> 01:40:12,933
Speaker 1: though they're legitimately good and have a quarterback that, if

2208
01:40:12,973 --> 01:40:14,532
Speaker 1: we did this last year, would have been ranked as

2209
01:40:14,532 --> 01:40:16,692
Speaker 1: a top five to seven quarterback. We have them at

2210
01:40:16,733 --> 01:40:19,213
Speaker 1: twenty nine, and by the way, I'm not saying you're wrong.

2211
01:40:19,293 --> 01:40:20,333
Speaker 1: I had them at twenty eight.

2212
01:40:20,612 --> 01:40:23,692
Speaker 2: So I won a playoff game last year and gave

2213
01:40:23,733 --> 01:40:25,773
Speaker 2: the Chiefs a good fight if I'm not mistaken in

2214
01:40:25,813 --> 01:40:28,572
Speaker 2: the second round. But they're just I mean, they're the

2215
01:40:28,612 --> 01:40:31,372
Speaker 2: Houston Texans. They're kind of boring. They're in the AFC

2216
01:40:31,572 --> 01:40:34,812
Speaker 2: South Stroud's good and they are a good team. They're

2217
01:40:34,813 --> 01:40:36,853
Speaker 2: gonna run away with the South easily this year. But

2218
01:40:37,013 --> 01:40:39,333
Speaker 2: I just if a Texans game on it's one of

2219
01:40:39,372 --> 01:40:40,772
Speaker 2: the teams I'm watching the least.

2220
01:40:42,612 --> 01:40:45,372
Speaker 1: I'm gonna sit here and think. I don't want to

2221
01:40:45,532 --> 01:40:50,133
Speaker 1: speak too quickly, but Mario, I think I'm gonna say,

2222
01:40:50,452 --> 01:40:52,013
Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever watched the Texans game in

2223
01:40:52,093 --> 01:40:52,893
Speaker 1: my entire life.

2224
01:40:54,333 --> 01:40:56,293
Speaker 3: Oh, come on those playoff games.

2225
01:40:56,452 --> 01:40:58,893
Speaker 1: Since they're always on Saturday at one o'clock and I'm

2226
01:40:58,933 --> 01:41:05,213
Speaker 1: doing so Yeah, I don't know have I watched. I

2227
01:41:05,372 --> 01:41:08,533
Speaker 1: like Aaron Fox at least when he's on podcasts.

2228
01:41:08,733 --> 01:41:11,253
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's been gone. Awhile uh.

2229
01:41:15,173 --> 01:41:19,773
Speaker 1: Played the jj wats gone to Uh can you all

2230
01:41:19,893 --> 01:41:23,973
Speaker 1: think of one Houston Texans moment.

2231
01:41:23,853 --> 01:41:28,492
Speaker 3: Andre Johnson fighting Courtland Finnegans Titans.

2232
01:41:29,452 --> 01:41:31,452
Speaker 2: Well, winning the playoff game last year was a pretty

2233
01:41:31,452 --> 01:41:31,813
Speaker 2: big deal.

2234
01:41:32,253 --> 01:41:35,173
Speaker 1: That was two years ago. It didn't they win last

2235
01:41:35,213 --> 01:41:38,933
Speaker 1: year too? Uh, let's see, but you're probably maybe we

2236
01:41:38,973 --> 01:41:39,372
Speaker 1: should know.

2237
01:41:39,412 --> 01:41:42,053
Speaker 2: This regardless, the Texans even in the playoffs isn't something

2238
01:41:42,053 --> 01:41:43,412
Speaker 2: I would have thought of a few years ago till

2239
01:41:43,412 --> 01:41:43,973
Speaker 2: they got Stroud.

2240
01:41:45,213 --> 01:41:48,133
Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't think I've ever seen him play. I've

2241
01:41:48,213 --> 01:41:50,612
Speaker 1: never met a Texans fan, so that's for sure.

2242
01:41:50,933 --> 01:41:52,452
Speaker 3: Beat the Chargers and lost to the Chiefs.

2243
01:41:52,572 --> 01:41:57,173
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, well, oh no, I do remember the Chiefs game, Okay,

2244
01:41:57,253 --> 01:41:59,572
Speaker 1: I get I do. I did. Actually, they they kept

2245
01:41:59,612 --> 01:42:02,213
Speaker 1: that close, so I take that back. The first ever

2246
01:42:02,333 --> 01:42:06,973
Speaker 1: Texans game I watched was last year Divisional ploffs against

2247
01:42:07,013 --> 01:42:07,492
Speaker 1: the Chiefs.

2248
01:42:07,572 --> 01:42:07,813
Speaker 3: I do.

2249
01:42:08,372 --> 01:42:11,053
Speaker 1: I do vaguely remember that game. Give me a they're

2250
01:42:11,093 --> 01:42:11,412
Speaker 1: gonna have.

2251
01:42:11,412 --> 01:42:13,612
Speaker 2: A good record again because that division is so bad.

2252
01:42:13,853 --> 01:42:14,893
Speaker 1: Give me a Texans fact.

2253
01:42:14,973 --> 01:42:18,093
Speaker 3: Yeah. Despite all that success, their offense ranked twenty ninth

2254
01:42:18,173 --> 01:42:19,253
Speaker 3: in overall efficiency.

2255
01:42:20,333 --> 01:42:22,452
Speaker 1: Really yeah, and they got they won a playoff game

2256
01:42:22,492 --> 01:42:25,253
Speaker 1: twenty ninth. Yeah. CJ. Stroud had a big regression year,

2257
01:42:25,653 --> 01:42:28,013
Speaker 1: so be interesting thirty. When guys have a good rookie

2258
01:42:28,053 --> 01:42:30,253
Speaker 1: year in a bad second year, the third year usually

2259
01:42:30,333 --> 01:42:33,372
Speaker 1: decides their career if you look historically, so it'll be

2260
01:42:33,412 --> 01:42:35,532
Speaker 1: interesting to see what they do. I'm gonna go thirtieth.

2261
01:42:35,572 --> 01:42:39,133
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take the Panthers sneakily. If you're like me

2262
01:42:39,452 --> 01:42:42,853
Speaker 1: and you are a Chris Meyers stan, you would have

2263
01:42:43,013 --> 01:42:44,733
Speaker 1: known that the Panthers were kind of fun at the

2264
01:42:44,813 --> 01:42:47,892
Speaker 1: end of the year. Last year, Bryce Young's good, Xavier

2265
01:42:48,093 --> 01:42:53,253
Speaker 1: Legrett they beat up on some teams towards the end

2266
01:42:53,293 --> 01:42:57,253
Speaker 1: of the year. So I think Bryce Young, I don't

2267
01:42:57,253 --> 01:42:59,253
Speaker 1: know if he's good, but I think he's better than

2268
01:42:59,372 --> 01:43:02,492
Speaker 1: probably the average football fan realizes, because you kind of

2269
01:43:02,532 --> 01:43:06,013
Speaker 1: wrote off his career and then he came back, you know,

2270
01:43:06,333 --> 01:43:10,213
Speaker 1: last year after he won the job back. So yeah,

2271
01:43:10,293 --> 01:43:12,333
Speaker 1: I'm kind of I'm kind of in on the Panthers.

2272
01:43:12,412 --> 01:43:15,412
Speaker 1: Thirtieth is obviously pretty low. I'm not that in on him,

2273
01:43:15,452 --> 01:43:17,852
Speaker 1: but I do. I think they'll they'll have their moments.

2274
01:43:18,293 --> 01:43:20,492
Speaker 2: I went to a real life Panthers game shortly after

2275
01:43:20,532 --> 01:43:21,973
Speaker 2: he was picked. It was one of his first games,

2276
01:43:21,973 --> 01:43:23,173
Speaker 2: and it was hard to watch. I was like this

2277
01:43:23,253 --> 01:43:25,973
Speaker 2: guy has no business being a starting quarterback. I can't

2278
01:43:26,013 --> 01:43:27,572
Speaker 2: believe he was a number one pick. This is a

2279
01:43:27,612 --> 01:43:30,692
Speaker 2: horrible experience experiment. But then last year, as you said,

2280
01:43:30,733 --> 01:43:32,133
Speaker 2: he kind of turned it on and they've got some

2281
01:43:32,213 --> 01:43:35,853
Speaker 2: optimism around him. Right now, they just lost feeling back

2282
01:43:35,933 --> 01:43:38,572
Speaker 2: to the to Minnesota, but they've got one of my

2283
01:43:38,653 --> 01:43:42,293
Speaker 2: favorite people in the entire league, Xavier Legett, in that accent,

2284
01:43:42,572 --> 01:43:44,372
Speaker 2: so I actually wanted that to work out.

2285
01:43:44,293 --> 01:43:45,133
Speaker 3: Really just for Xavier.

2286
01:43:45,173 --> 01:43:47,333
Speaker 1: Look at the problem with the Panthers is Charlotte is

2287
01:43:47,372 --> 01:43:51,813
Speaker 1: basically just one big bank, and their stadium is kind

2288
01:43:51,853 --> 01:43:53,933
Speaker 1: of a bank too. It's just if you've ever been

2289
01:43:53,973 --> 01:43:56,372
Speaker 1: in Charlotte. I lived in Charlotte one summer. It's a

2290
01:43:56,492 --> 01:43:59,773
Speaker 1: very sterile city and it feels like everything is is

2291
01:43:59,853 --> 01:44:02,692
Speaker 1: a Bank of America lobby and that's kind of how

2292
01:44:02,773 --> 01:44:05,893
Speaker 1: I feel like their stadium is too. But other than that,

2293
01:44:06,973 --> 01:44:13,333
Speaker 1: I also don't like their logo. But other than that, yeah, yeah,

2294
01:44:13,333 --> 01:44:16,612
Speaker 1: I'm just but that's why they're thirty. They're not the worst, though. Yeah,

2295
01:44:16,733 --> 01:44:18,853
Speaker 1: they're third to worst. They're third to worst. Give me

2296
01:44:18,893 --> 01:44:19,213
Speaker 1: a fact.

2297
01:44:20,013 --> 01:44:22,213
Speaker 3: My fact is about Bryce Young and his finish over

2298
01:44:22,253 --> 01:44:25,173
Speaker 3: the final ten weeks. He threw fifteen touchdowns to six interceptions,

2299
01:44:25,213 --> 01:44:28,213
Speaker 3: and had multiple touchdown passes in each of the season's

2300
01:44:28,293 --> 01:44:29,053
Speaker 3: final three games.

2301
01:44:29,093 --> 01:44:31,333
Speaker 1: See might be good. I'd be fun to watch them.

2302
01:44:31,372 --> 01:44:33,853
Speaker 1: I think they opened with the Jaguars in a game

2303
01:44:33,893 --> 01:44:37,293
Speaker 1: that before even and that I knew. You want to

2304
01:44:37,293 --> 01:44:39,053
Speaker 1: talk about a game. I knew Chris Myers was gonna

2305
01:44:39,053 --> 01:44:44,133
Speaker 1: be honest. When I saw Panthers Jaguars, I knew it

2306
01:44:44,253 --> 01:44:46,372
Speaker 1: was Chris Myers, and then Fox released it a couple

2307
01:44:46,372 --> 01:44:48,693
Speaker 1: of weeks ago. It was Chris Myers, like that was

2308
01:44:48,973 --> 01:44:52,053
Speaker 1: the game was made for him. What's next? You're getting

2309
01:44:52,093 --> 01:44:55,253
Speaker 1: to side here? What team is not coming in last?

2310
01:44:55,372 --> 01:44:55,773
Speaker 3: So go.

2311
01:44:57,253 --> 01:44:57,932
Speaker 1: Two choices.

2312
01:44:58,213 --> 01:45:00,173
Speaker 2: I mean, I've already made my decision without knowing how

2313
01:45:00,253 --> 01:45:01,612
Speaker 2: this is planning out. I got to go by what

2314
01:45:01,693 --> 01:45:04,293
Speaker 2: I have written down, and I have next the Chargers.

2315
01:45:04,412 --> 01:45:05,572
Speaker 1: All right, Chargers.

2316
01:45:07,933 --> 01:45:09,772
Speaker 2: What can I say about the Chargers.

2317
01:45:09,853 --> 01:45:12,853
Speaker 1: I'm a zero fan that there is no one in

2318
01:45:12,973 --> 01:45:15,532
Speaker 1: America that can prove they're a Chargers fan.

2319
01:45:16,333 --> 01:45:19,333
Speaker 2: I remember the COVID draft year where they would do

2320
01:45:19,452 --> 01:45:21,173
Speaker 2: a zoom and they'd have fans at home, and the

2321
01:45:21,253 --> 01:45:23,652
Speaker 2: Chargers came up and they just had like helmets because

2322
01:45:23,693 --> 01:45:25,013
Speaker 2: no one would even get on that zoom.

2323
01:45:25,572 --> 01:45:28,173
Speaker 1: Remember they would have like fifty fans, Remember in their

2324
01:45:28,253 --> 01:45:30,892
Speaker 1: living room, nobody was there. And then they're like, Chargers,

2325
01:45:31,253 --> 01:45:32,573
Speaker 1: we didn't really get anybody.

2326
01:45:32,693 --> 01:45:35,412
Speaker 2: I think the one woman I think they went to

2327
01:45:35,532 --> 01:45:37,213
Speaker 2: think she went viral that night because she was like

2328
01:45:37,372 --> 01:45:37,692
Speaker 2: the one.

2329
01:45:38,173 --> 01:45:40,452
Speaker 1: She was the one, the one Chargers when they do that,

2330
01:45:40,612 --> 01:45:44,452
Speaker 1: Jim Harball, and they might be good. I mean, they

2331
01:45:44,532 --> 01:45:48,053
Speaker 1: might be really good. Like I think I was listening

2332
01:45:48,133 --> 01:45:50,933
Speaker 1: to somebodcast that had them as the number five team

2333
01:45:51,053 --> 01:45:53,293
Speaker 1: in the NFL and we have them at thirty one.

2334
01:45:53,412 --> 01:45:55,612
Speaker 1: I mean, it could be the case that Chargers in

2335
01:45:55,653 --> 01:45:57,853
Speaker 1: the AFC Championship game and we feel stupid with it,

2336
01:45:58,372 --> 01:46:00,452
Speaker 1: especially with you having the Titans at number five.

2337
01:46:01,013 --> 01:46:03,572
Speaker 2: All right, Bears at number six, let's slow down on

2338
01:46:03,773 --> 01:46:06,492
Speaker 2: getting them in the championship game. But there is tension

2339
01:46:06,492 --> 01:46:09,852
Speaker 2: with Harrball and Justin Urvert I liked and the preseason

2340
01:46:09,893 --> 01:46:12,293
Speaker 2: Harball was out tailgating with the fans. He's at least

2341
01:46:12,372 --> 01:46:15,133
Speaker 2: trying to find fans and bring them into games, so

2342
01:46:16,173 --> 01:46:17,133
Speaker 2: must be worried at the game.

2343
01:46:17,293 --> 01:46:18,773
Speaker 3: But Antonio Gates.

2344
01:46:18,532 --> 01:46:21,652
Speaker 1: And Ladedian Tomlinson and Philip Rivers are eating at a

2345
01:46:21,733 --> 01:46:23,452
Speaker 1: restaurant across the street, and he said, I'll give you

2346
01:46:23,492 --> 01:46:25,253
Speaker 1: fifty dollars if you come stand next to my car

2347
01:46:25,293 --> 01:46:27,093
Speaker 1: and act like you're going to this game. Please come

2348
01:46:27,133 --> 01:46:30,612
Speaker 1: on with my team. Yeah, I can't act like I care.

2349
01:46:30,773 --> 01:46:33,013
Speaker 1: I mean, I do like their I do like their cool.

2350
01:46:33,053 --> 01:46:34,853
Speaker 1: You know. I think the color of the uniforms is nice.

2351
01:46:34,893 --> 01:46:38,972
Speaker 1: I like when they wear throwbacks. They're very rarely on television.

2352
01:46:39,013 --> 01:46:42,853
Speaker 1: It feels like Sunday Night football against the Chiefs once

2353
01:46:42,933 --> 01:46:47,253
Speaker 1: a year is usually when I see them play. But

2354
01:46:47,372 --> 01:46:50,692
Speaker 1: they could be good. Justin Herbert is a legitimately really good.

2355
01:46:50,773 --> 01:46:52,612
Speaker 1: He needs one big win. I think he gets it

2356
01:46:52,693 --> 01:46:55,173
Speaker 1: this year. But I can't put him higher than thirty.

2357
01:46:55,572 --> 01:46:57,772
Speaker 2: They won the Hall of Fame game a few weeks ago.

2358
01:46:57,893 --> 01:46:59,652
Speaker 2: Beating the Lions gets you a little.

2359
01:46:59,412 --> 01:47:01,773
Speaker 1: Fired up about the Chargers. It's always weird that they

2360
01:47:01,813 --> 01:47:04,493
Speaker 1: play that game. It's always in early.

2361
01:47:04,372 --> 01:47:08,893
Speaker 2: July now, like it's just an extra game and the preseason.

2362
01:47:09,133 --> 01:47:10,853
Speaker 1: Yeah, what do you got? Well?

2363
01:47:10,893 --> 01:47:13,452
Speaker 3: Warren Sharpe agrees with you. He says the Chargers don't

2364
01:47:13,612 --> 01:47:16,173
Speaker 3: have a home field advantage, so every game is either

2365
01:47:16,213 --> 01:47:18,692
Speaker 3: an away game or a neutral game.

2366
01:47:19,013 --> 01:47:21,492
Speaker 1: No, he's right, they have the least home field advantage

2367
01:47:21,532 --> 01:47:25,973
Speaker 1: of anyone because when the other AFC West teams play,

2368
01:47:26,053 --> 01:47:28,372
Speaker 1: they invade their stadium. I mean when the Chiefs and

2369
01:47:28,412 --> 01:47:32,492
Speaker 1: Broncos especially play, there are many more Chiefs and Broncos fans.

2370
01:47:32,492 --> 01:47:35,053
Speaker 1: And then you have people you mentioned this about Nashville

2371
01:47:35,093 --> 01:47:37,293
Speaker 1: and Vegas. There's people who say, hey, I want to

2372
01:47:37,973 --> 01:47:39,532
Speaker 1: go to LA. This is a good chance to go

2373
01:47:39,612 --> 01:47:43,253
Speaker 1: to LA and tickets will be the Chargers. That's exactly right.

2374
01:47:43,452 --> 01:47:45,333
Speaker 1: So that's the way it goes, all right. That means

2375
01:47:45,452 --> 01:47:50,932
Speaker 1: last place the most boring team to watch in the NFL,

2376
01:47:51,933 --> 01:47:56,933
Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts. Don't disagree another team, stadium's too dark.

2377
01:47:58,492 --> 01:48:00,812
Speaker 1: By the way, they were next to last. I mine

2378
01:48:01,173 --> 01:48:03,612
Speaker 1: stadium's too dark. The one thing that was interesting is

2379
01:48:03,733 --> 01:48:06,652
Speaker 1: in what way will Anthony Richardson fail this year? Now

2380
01:48:06,693 --> 01:48:08,333
Speaker 1: you get Daniel Jones. I mean, if you were to

2381
01:48:08,412 --> 01:48:13,532
Speaker 1: look up poor guy. I said, not if you look

2382
01:48:13,572 --> 01:48:14,813
Speaker 1: up poor guy, but if you were to look up

2383
01:48:14,813 --> 01:48:16,452
Speaker 1: a boy, think he was very poor. If you look

2384
01:48:16,532 --> 01:48:18,652
Speaker 1: up boring quarterback, you're gonna see Daniel Jones. I mean

2385
01:48:18,733 --> 01:48:21,692
Speaker 1: went to Duke or Goggles when he was in high school.

2386
01:48:21,733 --> 01:48:27,293
Speaker 1: I mean he's he is. The Colts, right, games always

2387
01:48:27,293 --> 01:48:30,612
Speaker 1: at one o'clock, feels like most of the time they're

2388
01:48:30,612 --> 01:48:32,213
Speaker 1: playing the Titans. And they won like.

2389
01:48:32,372 --> 01:48:34,213
Speaker 2: Seventeen in a row against the Titans.

2390
01:48:34,333 --> 01:48:39,053
Speaker 1: Yes, and it is. It's just not interesting and they

2391
01:48:39,213 --> 01:48:42,973
Speaker 1: every game is seventeen fourteen, and I just I can't

2392
01:48:43,053 --> 01:48:45,133
Speaker 1: think of anything that would make me want to tune

2393
01:48:45,173 --> 01:48:47,492
Speaker 1: into a Colts game. And they are only a couple

2394
01:48:47,572 --> 01:48:49,973
Speaker 1: hours from where we are, and I never have once

2395
01:48:50,173 --> 01:48:51,572
Speaker 1: thought about going to a game.

2396
01:48:52,372 --> 01:48:55,852
Speaker 2: Well, I hate that their stadium for Kentucky Basketball Final

2397
01:48:55,893 --> 01:48:58,933
Speaker 2: four reasons, but the Colts are what I have as

2398
01:48:58,973 --> 01:49:01,692
Speaker 2: a rivalry in the NFL. As you mentioned, they played

2399
01:49:01,693 --> 01:49:03,333
Speaker 2: the Titans a lot, had their number for many years,

2400
01:49:03,372 --> 01:49:05,692
Speaker 2: so I genuinely hate them. I have like an actual

2401
01:49:05,733 --> 01:49:08,853
Speaker 2: hatred of the Colts. However, right now I feel a

2402
01:49:08,853 --> 01:49:11,293
Speaker 2: little bit bad for them that just two years ago

2403
01:49:11,372 --> 01:49:14,333
Speaker 2: they had a top five pick, had several options. We're

2404
01:49:14,333 --> 01:49:16,973
Speaker 2: about to get our quarterback from a future you blink,

2405
01:49:17,013 --> 01:49:19,853
Speaker 2: you wake up, and Daniel Jones is your starting quarterback. Like,

2406
01:49:20,253 --> 01:49:22,093
Speaker 2: how did that happen in the span of a year

2407
01:49:22,133 --> 01:49:25,053
Speaker 2: and a half, But it happened to them, and I

2408
01:49:25,173 --> 01:49:26,973
Speaker 2: want the worst for them, but this might actually be

2409
01:49:27,053 --> 01:49:27,692
Speaker 2: too far for them.

2410
01:49:27,813 --> 01:49:31,213
Speaker 1: Well, it's interesting you said that you you hate them

2411
01:49:31,213 --> 01:49:33,293
Speaker 1: because they're your rival. I think if the NFL dot

2412
01:49:33,372 --> 01:49:36,652
Speaker 1: Com were to do a piece best Rivalries in the NFL,

2413
01:49:36,773 --> 01:49:38,893
Speaker 1: it Wou'd be low on the list. Last place would

2414
01:49:38,893 --> 01:49:40,933
Speaker 1: be Colts Titans. I wouldn't have even thought you were

2415
01:49:40,933 --> 01:49:44,013
Speaker 1: a rival. You're not even that close to each other geographically.

2416
01:49:45,133 --> 01:49:47,213
Speaker 2: There was a time when in the AFC South those

2417
01:49:47,253 --> 01:49:50,213
Speaker 2: two were good and the Jaguars sucked and the Texans

2418
01:49:50,253 --> 01:49:51,013
Speaker 2: were getting started.

2419
01:49:51,053 --> 01:49:52,773
Speaker 1: But Billy, do you agree with me in terms of

2420
01:49:52,933 --> 01:49:56,652
Speaker 1: rivalries near the bottom. Yeah, yeah, I don't think the

2421
01:49:56,693 --> 01:49:58,773
Speaker 1: Colts would even claim that. Would be like somebody that

2422
01:49:58,893 --> 01:50:02,012
Speaker 1: goes to Colorado State going we have a huge ribery. Wildly,

2423
01:50:02,213 --> 01:50:06,253
Speaker 1: you don't understand Colorado and you don't even understand how

2424
01:50:06,333 --> 01:50:09,293
Speaker 1: important that game is. That's what I would feel with

2425
01:50:09,412 --> 01:50:09,652
Speaker 1: that one.

2426
01:50:09,653 --> 01:50:12,173
Speaker 2: What do you think the old Kerry Collins Peyton Manning

2427
01:50:12,253 --> 01:50:13,412
Speaker 2: showdowns in the NFL?

2428
01:50:13,532 --> 01:50:19,253
Speaker 1: The best? Historically the best is Bears Packers, but recently Steelers.

2429
01:50:18,933 --> 01:50:21,652
Speaker 3: Raising Steelers Ravens. Yeah, Thanksgiving game.

2430
01:50:21,653 --> 01:50:25,013
Speaker 1: Yeah, Steelers Ravens. I think recently has produced the best

2431
01:50:25,053 --> 01:50:29,333
Speaker 1: games historically, I think most people would probably say Bears, Packers,

2432
01:50:29,372 --> 01:50:31,733
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean I make it a point to

2433
01:50:31,773 --> 01:50:33,173
Speaker 1: watch every Steelers Ravens the game.

2434
01:50:33,452 --> 01:50:35,773
Speaker 2: Yeah, I have one I mentioned. I used to go

2435
01:50:35,813 --> 01:50:38,772
Speaker 2: to Chiefs games a lot, the Chiefs Raiders. It's died

2436
01:50:38,853 --> 01:50:41,293
Speaker 2: down a little bit, but back when they were both

2437
01:50:41,372 --> 01:50:44,372
Speaker 2: really good. It was nasty and arrowhead when the Raiders

2438
01:50:44,412 --> 01:50:44,973
Speaker 2: were in town.

2439
01:50:45,733 --> 01:50:52,652
Speaker 1: In its heyday. Cowboys Eagles, Cowboys, Giants, Cowboys commander like Cowboys.

2440
01:50:52,733 --> 01:50:55,733
Speaker 1: Niners had a good run in their heyday. But for

2441
01:50:55,893 --> 01:50:58,812
Speaker 1: me in the NFL now, I mean, the only games

2442
01:50:58,893 --> 01:51:01,293
Speaker 1: that I'm like, I gotta see because these rivals are

2443
01:51:01,293 --> 01:51:04,093
Speaker 1: fun to watch each other is Steelers Ravens. Yeah, all

2444
01:51:04,173 --> 01:51:04,812
Speaker 1: right with your fact.

2445
01:51:05,532 --> 01:51:08,133
Speaker 3: It's been rough over the last two seasons with Anthony Richardson.

2446
01:51:08,253 --> 01:51:12,613
Speaker 3: Out of fifty five eligible quarterbacks, Richardson was last in accuracy,

2447
01:51:13,053 --> 01:51:15,933
Speaker 3: last in completion rate, and fifty out of fifty five

2448
01:51:16,133 --> 01:51:17,652
Speaker 3: in TD interception ratio.

2449
01:51:18,093 --> 01:51:20,813
Speaker 1: And if only someone could have seen that company with

2450
01:51:20,893 --> 01:51:22,933
Speaker 1: the fact that he also wasn't good in college, and

2451
