1 00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:11,600 Speaker 1: This is straight Fire with Jason McIntyre. What is up, 2 00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 1: straight fire? Fam, It's me Jason McIntyre, Straight Fire. From Monday, November. 3 00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:20,880 Speaker 1: You have less than a week to go to the 4 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:24,000 Speaker 1: World Cup. I can't believe it. I'm so excited. I 5 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:26,639 Speaker 1: think we're two weeks out from Thanksgiving. It's about to 6 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:30,320 Speaker 1: get busy in what I believe is the best sports 7 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:34,559 Speaker 1: month on the calendar. For college basketball's underway. I know 8 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,159 Speaker 1: you guys watching a lot of college hoops over the weekend. 9 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:41,519 Speaker 1: College football was brutal weekend for the Pac twelve Rob G. 10 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:43,159 Speaker 1: I don't We're gonna get to Rob G in a 11 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 1: little bit, but I don't know how he's coping on 12 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 1: this fine Monday morning with his U c l A 13 00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:52,279 Speaker 1: Bruins Saturday night and then his Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday. 14 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 1: And at least the Lakers got the win. So there's that, 15 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 1: but rough weekend for rob G. I I had a 16 00:00:57,760 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 1: I don't want to say spectacular weekend. It was pretty 17 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: damn good. My kids. It appears both of their soccer 18 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,399 Speaker 1: teams in the youth leagues are about to get eliminated 19 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,960 Speaker 1: from the postseason. There's like, just like the World Cup, 20 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: there's group play, and um, I don't think they did 21 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 1: enough to advance, so that kind of stinks. Um, but 22 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,679 Speaker 1: it does mean more time for focusing on the NFL, 23 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: which was absolutely bonkers. Stop me if you've heard that before, right, 24 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: NFL every weekend is the greatest theater in sports. I 25 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 1: know a lot of people love college football, and I 26 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:31,399 Speaker 1: love it too. I love the NBA. I mean, Joel 27 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: Embiid had one of the greatest nights probably in the 28 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 1: last thirty years in the NBA last night, and it 29 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 1: was like, oh, the nice fifty nine points eleven awesome, 30 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 1: good job. And then just like I'll see your Joel 31 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 1: embiad night, historical night, and I'll raise you everything that 32 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: happened to the Vikings Bills game. Seriously, the Vikings Bills game. 33 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if anything is going to top that 34 00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 1: this year. Now. I don't have a running list of 35 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 1: games of the year, but Minnesota Buffalo just kept me 36 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: absolutely on my toes. Just an incredible game. Obviously from 37 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 1: a gambling standpoint, we had talked about the potential for 38 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 1: Josh Allen not playing and loving the Vikings and felt 39 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 1: great about that until like Saturday, where they're like, oh yeah, 40 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 1: Josh Allen probably gonna play. And then Sunday, Josh Allen's 41 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,360 Speaker 1: gonna start in the line shoots back up and you're like, 42 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: oh hell. And then the Bills, as they are wont 43 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 1: to do, go up. I believe they led by seven team. 44 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,239 Speaker 1: I've got like six pages of notes. Okay, not six pages, 45 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,639 Speaker 1: but you know what I mean. Yeah, they led at 46 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 1: late and a half, then they led and the third quarter. 47 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 1: At that point you're like, all right, this is you 48 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 1: know the Viking stories written, They go outdoors, they get 49 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,919 Speaker 1: their butts kicked. It happened against the elite Philadelphia Eagles. 50 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: It's happening against the elite Bills. And then on the 51 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: very next play, Dalvin Cook breaks off an eighty one 52 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 1: yard house call and it's like, oh, game on. And 53 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: this is when it got interesting. And I do believe 54 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: there is is we're gonna talk about the VP because 55 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: you know, folks, Josh Allen, you could just eliminate him, 56 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 1: cross him off from the NFL MVP race. I know 57 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: it's only week ten and people can say, Jay, there's 58 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 1: still a lot can happen, folks, Josh Allen has now 59 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 1: been garbage for three straight weeks. He was terrible in 60 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 1: the second half against Green Bay. Let the Packers come 61 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,080 Speaker 1: in the back door to cover, Thank you very much. 62 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 1: We were on the Packers in that one. Then last 63 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: week against the Jets, so it is a brutal red 64 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: zone pick, then one deep in his own end, and 65 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 1: the Jets pulled one of the biggest upsets of the 66 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: season season taking down the Buffalo Bills. And then Josh 67 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: Allen throws two more interceptions against the Vikings. Folks, he 68 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: is on I mean, I don't want to say Josh 69 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: Allen has become, you know, rookie year Josh Allen, but 70 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 1: right now he's kind of playing like it. Josh Allen 71 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: is not taking care of the football. The guy is 72 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: a turnover machine. Whe didn't get to the fumble yet. 73 00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: Because so much has happened in this game that it's 74 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: like it's tough to break it all down. But bottom 75 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 1: line is, after the Dalvin Cook score, the Bills are 76 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: right down the field and then Josh Allen, for whatever reason, 77 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: throws a curious interception right to Patrick Peterson. Now, Patrick Peterson, 78 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 1: it felt like he was watched last year. He's getting 79 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 1: Cook left and right comes back and like, well they 80 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: don't really have much of a secondary and Patrick Peterson like, 81 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: I'll take this gift, thank you, Josh Allen, I'll take it. 82 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: And and Minnesota drives right back down touchdown, but they 83 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: blow the extra point. You're like, oh, that's definitely not 84 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,359 Speaker 1: gonna come back to cost him. Of course late in 85 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: the game, needing to drive down and get a touchdown, uh, 86 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: to force so to take the lead or or or 87 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: win the game. And that's when the Justin Jefferson catch 88 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: happens on fourth and eighteen. I'm already calling it the 89 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 1: catch of the year. Nothing can top it, folks, Nothing, 90 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 1: fourth and eighteen, stealing the ball in mid air with 91 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: one by with one hand from a Bill's defender. You know, 92 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 1: every eighty thousand, all the eighty thousand fans in Orchard Park, 93 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 1: which just yelling, n get down, not don't try to 94 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 1: be a hero, don't try to catch knocked the ball down, 95 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 1: just bat it down, and Justin Jefferson comes up with. 96 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: The cool thing is it was right on the Vikings sideline. 97 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 1: So usually on the road, if there's an amazing play, 98 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 1: it's like, oh cool, that's a great play. But the 99 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:16,039 Speaker 1: entire Vikings sideline goes bonkers. Justin Jefferson hauls it in. 100 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 1: The Vikings go down. You're like, all right, we got this. 101 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,160 Speaker 1: I say, we are not even a Vikings fan, but 102 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 1: you know we have some futures on them this year 103 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 1: from from August. You can go back and listen. I'm 104 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: not just saying this, but we love the Vikings. I 105 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 1: love their chances. They were a bet on team. New coach. 106 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,159 Speaker 1: We like O'Connell. I mean Kirk Cousins, who was not 107 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: great on Sunday, gets him down. You think Jefferson has 108 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: a tuddy, but they roll them down at the one 109 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: foot line. Then they can't get in. They stall, and 110 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: you're like, ah, unlucky Buffalo has it. They survive and 111 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: Josh Allen, listen, you can't blame the injury, right, Maybe 112 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: he's just in a three week funk. He literally cannot 113 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: take the snap from the center on the one yard line. 114 00:05:56,160 --> 00:06:00,279 Speaker 1: Vikings recover touchdown. I don't know that I've ever first 115 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 1: seen anything like that where you dropped the step etcher one, 116 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 1: the other team recovers it for a touchdown and the 117 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 1: lead in the final minute. It's like the game was 118 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: just off the charts of course, because he's Josh Allen, 119 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: he comes right down the field and they get the 120 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 1: field goal. Of course, there was a missed drop by 121 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: Gabriel Davis on the sideline. He used like the turf 122 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: to catch it. We're not gonna get drilled down too deep. 123 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,359 Speaker 1: But bottom line is he should not have caught that. 124 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 1: They should have never been in line for the field goal. 125 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: And then in overtime, Josh Allen throws another pick in 126 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 1: the end zone, like literally throwing the football to Patrick Peterson. 127 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,119 Speaker 1: And at that point I had to jump on social 128 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 1: media and say something and I and it's got a 129 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: lot of pick up all these I mean, it was 130 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,280 Speaker 1: a tough Sunday from my social media feed. I had 131 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 1: to stop looking at it during the Niners game because 132 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins fans are very angry at me. We'll get 133 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: to that shortly, but I tweeted this out and it 134 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: got a blow a bunch of people worked up. If 135 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson makes that throw the Josh Allen made, he's 136 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 1: getting crucified on social media. That's now, folks. Four red 137 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:06,159 Speaker 1: zone interceptions for Josh Allen in the last three weeks. 138 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: Five of his six interceptions in the last three weeks 139 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: have come in the second half or overtime, so he's 140 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 1: throwing him in important spots late in games. Josh Allen 141 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: cost Buffalo that came against Minnesota. There's no way around it. 142 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 1: You can't blame the referees. I don't even know that 143 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: you can give Kirk Cousins all the credit. I think 144 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:32,559 Speaker 1: this was Josh Allen really crippling Buffalo, and that's something 145 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 1: nobody expected. Nobody had that on their bingo card. Nobody 146 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 1: had Josh Allen, the m v P favorite coming into 147 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: the season, vomiting all over himself in the clutch and 148 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 1: costing the Bills the game against the Vikings. So now 149 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 1: I know this. I've made this more about the Bills 150 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: than the Vikings. But I can't get over Buffalo losing 151 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: that game. Folks. They not fall to six and three. 152 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 1: Believe it or not, The Buffalo Bills are in third 153 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: place in the a f C East. Miami is one 154 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: big as they play one more game. The Jets are 155 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: two via tiebreaker over Buffalo at six and three, and 156 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:09,239 Speaker 1: then Buffalo is six and three. That's staggering. Now the Vikings, 157 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 1: I gotta give some props to him. Minnesota shout out 158 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins, Kevin O'Connell, and you know, David Cook had 159 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 1: a nice game, the big touchdown run. But the guy 160 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 1: here is Justin Jefferson. And ah, I mean, you don't 161 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: want to like go overboard and hype someone too much 162 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: based on a hot stretch. But guys, some of the 163 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 1: stuff Justin Jefferson's doing is ridiculous. He had ten for 164 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: a buck ninety three. He now in in his first 165 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: three seasons, he has more one yard receiving games than 166 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,079 Speaker 1: anyone in NFL history. It used to be Odell Beckham 167 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: and Randy Moss with nineteen apiece. Jefferson now has twenty 168 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 1: and oh, by the way, he's got like seven more 169 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: games to stretch out his record. Justin Jefferson's unguardable. Now. 170 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: Buffalo did not have Tradavious White their best cornerback, at 171 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,040 Speaker 1: least I don't think he played. They're still waiting to 172 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 1: bring him off the I r At least that was 173 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:03,959 Speaker 1: the last thing I saw. I'll quickly check the box 174 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:05,839 Speaker 1: score in case I'm wrong. At tradevious White play and 175 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 1: was invisible. Yeah, I don't see him doing it. Yeah, 176 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: he didn't even play. They did have Milano back missing 177 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: the safety obviously matters. Uh listen, justin Jefferson's unguardable and 178 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 1: Minnesota is now eight and one in folks, you know 179 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: what this really means is if the Eagles slip up, 180 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings have an outside shot at the number 181 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 1: one seed. And why is that huge? Because they play 182 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: in a freaking dome and if they're able to get 183 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: home field advantage somehow as opposed to having to go 184 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 1: outdoors to Philly, I like the Viking chance of a lot. 185 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: Now their defense is extremely suss outside of Jefferson. Like, listen, 186 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 1: Adam Dealon just saint ain't what he what what he 187 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 1: used to be. Hockinson is a weapon. We like him obviously, 188 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 1: k j Osborne's okay, Dalvin Cook has some juice um, 189 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: but ultimately this comes down to Kirk Cousins. And I 190 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: did see some people saying that, like, you know that 191 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: they're just getting kind of lucky. There now seven and 192 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:07,559 Speaker 1: oh in one score games, and this kind of sort 193 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: of feels a little bit like the l A Rams 194 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: last year who got very lucky in close games and 195 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 1: one them all. But you know what I mean, the 196 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: Rams keep peeling off last year, these close playoff wins, 197 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: and it's like, hey, they're winning close games. You know 198 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 1: that takes them luck. Okay, fine, next thing you know, 199 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 1: they're in the super Bowl. Next thing you know, oh, 200 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 1: they won the super Bowl. Like at some point it's like, okay, 201 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 1: So I think the Minnesota Vikings are the big winners 202 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 1: and the Buffalo Bills, folks, I don't think they. I 203 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 1: don't think they got a shot at the number one 204 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: scene anymore. It's looking a lot like Patrick Mahomes and 205 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs, who we liked this weekend. I 206 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 1: had them in the contest good weekend and the contest 207 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 1: three and two. A lot of people had losing weeks, 208 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: so I was able to move up a little bit. 209 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't think I have a legitimate shot. Um. 210 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 1: I think I hate to say, I hate to even 211 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: talk about this freaking team, but the Tennessee Titans, like 212 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 1: they're alive, guys, they legitimately have a chance at the 213 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: top spot. I mean again, I don't think they were 214 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: a good team. Uh they fell behind ted nothing with 215 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 1: the Broncos and then they you know, get a flee flicker, 216 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 1: garbage play and now here we are there six and three. 217 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens I think have a chance. They were on 218 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: a buy. They're getting healthy. I I'm waiting waiting for 219 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 1: this line to hit the UH. I don't I don't 220 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,080 Speaker 1: want to bet fourteen this week for the Ravens, but 221 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 1: I definitely think it's a smash spot for Baltimore. Probably 222 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 1: be my first bet. Uh later this morning when I 223 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 1: see the best line that I can find. But I 224 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 1: like Baltimore a lot. And then Miami. I don't think 225 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: you could discount Miami. So I'm gonna go ahead and 226 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 1: say it right now. This is only week ten. Buffalo 227 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,079 Speaker 1: is not getting the number one seed in the a 228 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:42,680 Speaker 1: f C, and that is a bit of a shocker. 229 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 1: Josh Allen will not win the m v P. It 230 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 1: ain't happening. Well, Jay, Who's who's gonna win the m 231 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 1: v P. I don't think that's very hard guys right now? 232 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: The clubhouse leaders Jalen hurt two place tonight, we'll do 233 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: a quick best bet. Not a great game. Eagles Washington 234 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:01,319 Speaker 1: and then Patrick Mahomes who was good again. Um, I 235 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 1: don't want to spend any time in this game. But 236 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 1: Chiefs moved to seven and two quietly, quietly, kinds Chiefs 237 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 1: are rolling And I don't know if you guys saw 238 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: that hit Juju Smith Schuster took got knocked out, straight up, 239 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: done like out, concussed. Have no idea what his status 240 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 1: is going to be going forward. He might be an 241 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 1: out a week or two. But they were able to 242 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: unleash Cadarius Tony, who they bought low. Do you guys 243 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 1: remember that from the New York Giants. It was kind 244 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 1: of like Giants were like, we're sick of this guy. 245 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,079 Speaker 1: He wants to be a rapper. He is a nightmare 246 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 1: in the locker room. He's not getting the ball. Like 247 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 1: Andy reads like, sure we will, we will take Cadarius Tony. 248 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 1: He had a touchdown catch, He had fifty seven yards receiving, 249 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 1: You had thirty three yards rushing. And Andy bed said, yeah, 250 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 1: let's let's put them on special teams. This is just 251 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:53,319 Speaker 1: another toy for Patrick Mahomes in that offense. She's looked good. Ultimately, 252 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 1: I still think the Chiefs are the best team in 253 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: the NFL. I know everybody said Buffalo for a while, 254 00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: you just can't say Buffalo right now, not the way 255 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 1: Josh Uns blaying that they can't not get back to 256 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 1: that perch. But right now they're definitely not a number 257 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: one or I don't even know if they're number two. 258 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 1: I might take the Eagles over the Bills right now 259 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: because Josh Allen is in this weird funk and you 260 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 1: cannot blame the elbow. So I think Minnesota the biggest 261 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 1: story today. You'll see it all on podcast, TV radio. 262 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: Vikings Bills was the game maybe of the season, but 263 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 1: a close second, I thought, and Rob you might disagree. 264 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers down fourteen in the fourth quarter, and 265 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 1: if you remember, I set it on this pod, I 266 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 1: set it on Cowherd Show. Everything in this game points 267 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: to the Dallas Cowboys. I can't find one stat that 268 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,839 Speaker 1: favors the Green Bay Packers. That being said, I'm betting 269 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 1: the Packers, and I didn't really want to because of 270 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 1: the McCarthy revenge angle, which is a real thing, and 271 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 1: I talked about it my buddy Dan, who listens to 272 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: the pot all the time. I saw him this weekend 273 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 1: and he's like, hey, so tell me the full story, 274 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 1: and you know, I filled him in and I listen. 275 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: I thought it was a great spot from McCarthy to 276 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 1: get revenge and dude up in the fourth quarter on 277 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,960 Speaker 1: the road. Yeah, you think it. It's locked down. And folks, 278 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: this number is staggering. The Dallas Cowboys a hundred and 279 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 1: nine five and oh when they led by fourteen or 280 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: more in the fourth quarter. H and now it's a 281 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 1: one because Christian Watson. Hello, I mean Christian Watson, the 282 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: rookie who the last time anybody talked about Watson, he 283 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: got a concussion last week. And then the other time 284 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 1: they talked about Watson, he got a concussion the week before. 285 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 1: And before that it was Watson dropping a touchdown pass 286 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: I believe on like the first drive of the season 287 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 1: against the Vikings, Aaron Rodgers put it in his bread 288 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 1: basket and he dropped it. And I'm happy for Watson. 289 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 1: This is a kid from North Dakota State. I think 290 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 1: he went to He was like a record setting just 291 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 1: a scoring machine. He's a burner. I don't know who 292 00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 1: he was cooking on Dallas. I haven't looked to see 293 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: if it was Digs or the other cornerback. But Watson 294 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: had himself a game. I mean three touchdowns um only 295 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 1: four catches, a hundred seven yards, three touchdowns and the 296 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 1: Packers get the win seventeen unanswered points to end the game. 297 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 1: And I know that Mike McCarthy is gonna take a 298 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 1: lot of heat for the fourth down call. It was 299 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 1: fourth and four. It was basically, do you want to 300 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: kick a fifty two yard field goal? And there's really 301 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:32,880 Speaker 1: I mean, okay, so you make the fifty two yard 302 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 1: field goal, they still get the ball on a chance 303 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: to win the game. Okay, So that's number one in overtime. 304 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 1: Number two, you missed the fifty two yard field goal. 305 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: They get great field position. So shouldn't the Dallas Cowboys, 306 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: even though Zeke didn't play yesterday, he was inactive, shouldn't 307 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 1: they be able to pick up four yards? I mean 308 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: they had a damn good offensive game. Cowboys moved the ball. Well, 309 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: we're talking about a team scored twenty eight points. They 310 00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 1: had four one total yards five point three yards per play. 311 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: I mean you look up at down their box scores. 312 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 1: Like Tony Pollard at a monster game for my fantasy team, 313 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 1: um ceedee Lamb had the best receiving game of his career, 314 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 1: eleven for one fifty. He had fifteen targets. He was 315 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: just destroying Jairo Alexander, who jail Alexander just got eaten 316 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 1: up by ceedee lamb um gallup looked okay. Dalton Schultz 317 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 1: had a screw up that resulted in an interception um 318 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 1: for Doc I think at the end zone by the 319 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 1: kid Rudy, who has now become like a mascot for 320 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 1: the Packers apparently. But if I'm McCarthy, do I go there? Listen? 321 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 1: He's in it. He wants to win this game. And 322 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: you don't kick field goals and beat Aaron Rodgers on 323 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: the road in overtime. What he's gonna get the ball back? 324 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 1: So I can't kill McCarthy for going for it the 325 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: play before, if you really want to break it down, 326 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: the play before Alexander was all over the back of 327 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: the receiver. It should have been p I. I mean 328 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: he got there at least a second early, maybe even 329 00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: a second and a half. And the weird part about 330 00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 1: the loss for Dallas is I think this is one 331 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 1: of the three best teams in the NFC, and they're 332 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 1: now in third place in their own division. Because the 333 00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:11,440 Speaker 1: Giants won against the Texans, we will not speak of 334 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:16,199 Speaker 1: that ugly game. And Dallas is now facing like an 335 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 1: uphill climb, and unfortunately folks. I know Cowboys fans don't 336 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 1: want to don't want to do this. I started to 337 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 1: like crunch some of the schedules and look at the everything. 338 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 1: I have a feeling Dallas is going to open the 339 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 1: playoffs in Tampa against Tom Brady because I think Brady 340 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 1: and the Bucks are gonna win, um the third seed. 341 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,280 Speaker 1: I think the Giants are gonna get the higher wild called. 342 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 1: They will go to San Francisco, I believe, and that's 343 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 1: gonna get ugly. But a quick word, rob G, before 344 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 1: I ask you about your favorite team in the league. 345 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons. All I heard all week was and Packers 346 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 1: offensive lines is not very good, bat struggling in and 347 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 1: out of line up. Michael Parsons is gonna have a 348 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:04,480 Speaker 1: monster game, rob G. Michael Parsons first game in his 349 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 1: career without a pressure, a pressure, zero quarterback pressures for 350 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons. He was on the milk carton in Mike 351 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 1: McCarthy's biggest game of the season off of by and 352 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:18,919 Speaker 1: he was part of a defense that got run over 353 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: to the tune of two hundred and seven yards for 354 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 1: Jones and Dylan Robb. I like Michael Parsons. I think 355 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 1: it's you're still defensive Player of the Year leader, but 356 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 1: this was this was not a good performance for Parsons. Yeah, 357 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: and I think, um, that's really not a big shock 358 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 1: to me. You know that they didn't perform out because 359 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 1: anybody who was anything about football, you say this about 360 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:49,399 Speaker 1: Aaron Donald, Michael Parsons, pick your favorite. You know, aggressive 361 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:54,160 Speaker 1: pass rushing type, defensive and interior alignement. The best way 362 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 1: to slow those guys down and to beat them is 363 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,680 Speaker 1: to run right at him over and over and over 364 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:04,680 Speaker 1: and over and over. And credit to Green Bay because 365 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 1: I thought that there was a few times we saw 366 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: it late in the broadcast, especially where Aaron Rodgers was 367 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 1: really piste off at Matt Lafleur for not being more 368 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 1: aggressive and letting him do his thing. But they stuck 369 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 1: to their principles throughout the game and said, no, we're 370 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 1: gonna pound these guys in the just repeatedly body blow, 371 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:25,360 Speaker 1: body blow, body blow, and eventually they're just gonna cave 372 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 1: and they're gonna will And that's exactly what they did 373 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 1: in Green Bay. Um, I will say, I don't know 374 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 1: if you think this is a big deal. I thought 375 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 1: this was a big deal coming into this game. There 376 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 1: was a lot of talk last week leading up into 377 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: Sunday about O'Dell Beckham Jr. And the Dallas Cowboys, Dak Prescott, 378 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott, Mica Parsons, Jerry Jones, Steven Jones. Almost every headline, 379 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:54,879 Speaker 1: at least one headline a day was about Dallas is 380 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:56,679 Speaker 1: gonna get O b J? Are they gonna get him 381 00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: next week? Is there gonna be before Christmas? So you 382 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:00,879 Speaker 1: know whats gonna be? And get it for a stretch run? 383 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 1: And it's like almost zero headlines related to the actual 384 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,159 Speaker 1: game coming up. It was like a foregone conclusion that 385 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:13,119 Speaker 1: Dallas was just gonna run through Green Bay, and the 386 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 1: bigger talking point had to be are they going to 387 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 1: get another receiver? Apparents that with Ceedee Lamb and Dallas, 388 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,640 Speaker 1: for all their success of this season and even going 389 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 1: back to last season, I don't think they've gotten the 390 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 1: benefit of the doubt or have earned the benefit of 391 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: the doubt where they can have these kind of weeks 392 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,159 Speaker 1: where they're talking about everything but football. You know what 393 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: I mean. I'm glad you brought that up. Well, first 394 00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 1: of all, the O. B J stuff is a little silly. 395 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 1: We don't even know how he's gonna do right, everybody's like, oh, 396 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 1: he's gonna come back and be oh b J like, 397 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: I mean, the guy, it's surgery. I mean, we've seen 398 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup return it. He's like not even I wouldn't 399 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 1: even says um. But you brought up a great point 400 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 1: the NFL, and and we don't often talk about this 401 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,200 Speaker 1: because like there's not really many places to go, but 402 00:20:56,320 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: the NFL is such a coin toss league. It's un believable. 403 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 1: We're glowingly speaking about the Packers and they're come back 404 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 1: and oh, well, the Cowboys, that's a tough loss to flip. 405 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: The script would be entirely flipped if they convert fourth 406 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 1: and fourth or there's not that kind of phantom ish 407 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 1: holding call on the Cowboys. The backup running back peeled 408 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 1: off like a twenty yard inference because Rob, you're right 409 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,160 Speaker 1: at the end of regulation the Packers got the ball back, 410 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: and you're like, all right, two minute rolls. This is 411 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: where Aaron Rodgers shines and Mike Lafleur calls a run. 412 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:38,440 Speaker 1: I was at mottlaflo calls a run and then you're like, okay, 413 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,399 Speaker 1: they're not using what's going on here, and then they 414 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,120 Speaker 1: call another run to Aaron Jones, and then they wait 415 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:45,119 Speaker 1: like eight seconds and called time out. And at that 416 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:48,399 Speaker 1: point you're like, what kind of two minute rows this? 417 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 1: They're down to like forty seconds, thirty seconds, they're not 418 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,880 Speaker 1: even making an effort, and then they call it passed. Finally, 419 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: but Rogers they you know, Dallas is waiting at this point, 420 00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 1: and they stuff it out. Rogers comes to the sideline 421 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 1: and he's f bombing floor, like what the hell are 422 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 1: we doing? Think about or I don't exactly know what 423 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 1: was said. All the lip readers are getting overtime paid there, 424 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 1: but it was essentially one of these like what are 425 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 1: you even doing? Rogers was heated and he's lucky that 426 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 1: they were able to pull off the win because that 427 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: would have been the story. I don't think that's even 428 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:19,880 Speaker 1: like a footnote? Is it? No? Not this morning? Yeah, 429 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 1: And that's that's how weird things work. So um Packers 430 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 1: get to win. Their season is still alive. I think 431 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 1: we can officially put a couple of teams seasons two 432 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 1: it's over. Like the defending Super Bowl champion Rams, they 433 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,640 Speaker 1: are not making the playoffs. Guys, they lost Cooper Cups hurt, 434 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: Stafford didn't play. It's over. Rams are done. Okay, let's 435 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:42,440 Speaker 1: just I don't even know what we're gonna talk about 436 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 1: it much more on the podcast. That's how bleak it is. 437 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,959 Speaker 1: It's over. They don't look good. They're unwatchable.

Another playoffs team from last 442 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,919 Speaker 1: year that it really hurt me financially this weekend. One 443 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: of my more wins than losses this weekend, but this 444 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 1: one hurt was Rob G's Las Vegas Raiders. And you know, 445 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 1: I want to carve out at least, you know, twenty 446 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 1: minutes here to dive deep on a team that I 447 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 1: believe is the most underachieving team in the NFL this season. 448 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 1: We're talking about a Raiders team that made the playoffs 449 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 1: last year with an interim coach, and then they bring 450 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:32,200 Speaker 1: in one of the better offensive minds offensive coordinators of 451 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 1: the last twenty years. I mean, listen, you can say 452 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 1: what you want about McDaniels as a head coach, and 453 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 1: it's it's not not a lot of good things. But 454 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 1: as an offensive guy, he's pretty damn good. Okay, we've 455 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 1: got a lot of evidence of that with Brady. I mean, 456 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 1: I believe McDaniels took Team Tebow to the playoffs. They 457 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 1: did not. Was that Tebow? Was that Tebow Josh McDaniels, 458 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,680 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure. Yeah. He got Jake Cutler out of town. No, 459 00:23:55,920 --> 00:24:00,040 Speaker 1: it was John Fox. Okay, so McDaniels, I have his 460 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 1: numbers here. He was fired for cheating before that ever happened. 461 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 1: Oh goodness, gracious, you're right. McDaniels lasted twenty eight games 462 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 1: in Denver, started out six and oh seven and twenty 463 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 1: four as a head coach. Since that good start in Denver, 464 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 1: McDaniels with the Raiders has been a train wreck. They 465 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,920 Speaker 1: added Davante Adams, who, by the way, I mean, Rob, 466 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:25,119 Speaker 1: how much do you like watching Davante Adams. He's like 467 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:27,200 Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson, but he's like older. I mean, the guy's 468 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 1: a veteran and just cooking. I mean, when he's getting 469 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 1: the ball, it's awesome. But Waller's on, I R Hunter, 470 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 1: Renfroze on, I R. I don't know what's up with 471 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs and listen, I've been fortunate enough that I 472 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,400 Speaker 1: have a couple of connections with the Raiders, and I've 473 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 1: been telling you guys about this for a couple of 474 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:49,160 Speaker 1: weeks now. But it is not good in Vegas. It's 475 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 1: it's bad. I don't know if we wake up Tuesday, Wednesday, 476 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:57,440 Speaker 1: Thursday and McDaniels is gone, I don't know if the 477 00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:00,679 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator's toast or the defensive court there, he might 478 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 1: be gone. You obviously can't take Derek Carr out, but 479 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 1: as we noted, like there's an out the Raiders have 480 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 1: with him, and I think it's over. Derek Carr was 481 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 1: practically crying talking to the media. Felt awful for the guy. 482 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 1: He's been there nine years, zero playoff wins, and he's 483 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,399 Speaker 1: considered like a top fifteen quarterback. I like him, but 484 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,679 Speaker 1: this is an undisciplined unit on both sides. They had 485 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 1: ten penalties in the game, okay, and the Raiders fans 486 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 1: booed them off the field after the loss. I something, 487 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 1: it's the small things, right. So it's fourth down and 488 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 1: ball game. They called time out and you're like, all right, 489 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 1: McDaniels gonna dial up. You know what these six or 490 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 1: seven yards, but damn they can get that. But they 491 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,879 Speaker 1: got they got Jacobs, they got Adams, they got players. 492 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 1: They called time out and essentially throw a one on 493 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 1: one jump ball to Davante Adams in the end zone 494 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 1: looking for a flag and there's no flag. And it 495 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:57,359 Speaker 1: was like, that's what you called the time out to 496 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:02,479 Speaker 1: draw up? I don't I holy disappointing. This is how 497 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 1: bad it was. Rob. I'm sure you've seen the stat. 498 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan had the longest run of his career, a 499 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:13,160 Speaker 1: thirty nine yard run, thirty nine yards from Matt Ryan 500 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 1: on third and three in the fourth quarter, like a 501 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 1: pivotal run. Matt Ryan thirty nine yards. So they lost 502 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 1: three in a row. It's over, and we're talking about 503 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:26,439 Speaker 1: the Raiders were supposed to get hot here going against 504 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 1: bad teams. They were playing New Orleans, who's struggling. That 505 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 1: was my worst preseason called was New Orleans, Jacksonville in 506 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 1: a funk an Indie which fired their coach and brought 507 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 1: on Jeff Saturday and they lost to all of them. 508 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 1: Here's the worst part about the Colts. So Jeff Saturday 509 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 1: comes in and it's like, I'm gonna name Joe Bob 510 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 1: over here who was getting coffee for frank right three 511 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 1: years ago. I'm gonna name him the play caller. Well, 512 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 1: you can't do that with Sam Ellinger as your quarterback. 513 00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 1: Sam Ellinger I think has two starts to his name 514 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,919 Speaker 1: maybe and I think it's two, maybe three. So they 515 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,159 Speaker 1: had to decide. So Jeff Saturday must have seen practice 516 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,160 Speaker 1: with this new play calling. But like, yeah, Sam Leger 517 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: cannot handle this. Let's bring back Matt Ryan. So Matt Ryan, 518 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 1: who was supposed to be done for the season, frank 519 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 1: Ick said, were Benji Matt Ryan. We're going with Sam 520 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 1: Ellinger for the rest of the year. Youth movement. Matt 521 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,640 Speaker 1: Ryan comes in and slays. I got a great stat 522 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 1: for you. The Indianapolis Culture were oh and nine against 523 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:29,879 Speaker 1: the spread in the first half this season. Oh and 524 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,239 Speaker 1: nine in the first half. They scored the first ten 525 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 1: points of the game, lead thirteen seven and a half. 526 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,880 Speaker 1: Like this is a team that had no earthly clue 527 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 1: what they were doing in the first half all season, 528 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:46,639 Speaker 1: and the Raiders came in and let them get I mean, 529 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:49,119 Speaker 1: they just let the Colts push them around. Rob This 530 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 1: has to be at or near rock bottom for you 531 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 1: as a as a Raiders fan. Were you throwing objects? 532 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 1: Were you cursing? I mean, did you contain yourself? What 533 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 1: was the vibe like yesterday? You know what's funny is 534 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 1: I was like super subdued during the game because shameless plug. 535 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 1: You know, I produced the odd couple of Fox Sports 536 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: Rader Christos Sard and Rob Parker weeknights Fox Sports, and 537 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 1: we did our picks against the spread on Friday night, 538 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 1: and the game that we talked about, of course, was 539 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,639 Speaker 1: the Colts and the Raiders. And that game had opened 540 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,879 Speaker 1: up as Raiders minus six had been bent down to 541 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 1: Raiders minus four and a half. And it's like, well, 542 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 1: that's kind of audience. See especially Jeff Saturday's never coached, 543 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 1: you know, Pop Warner, and he's out here calling NFL games. 544 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 1: One of our guys from the MGM Grant says, well, 545 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 1: it's all sharp money that's on the Colts. And they're like, well, 546 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: that can't be right. You know, there's no way that's true. 547 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 1: And it's like, you know what, I'm a Raider fan. 548 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,719 Speaker 1: Let me let me at least look at it semi objectively. 549 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 1: You got a defense that can't stop a nosebleed. You 550 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: have a former offensive lineman who wants to run the ball, 551 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 1: which they did to two on the plus yards rushing, 552 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 1: including you brought up the forty yards scamper by the 553 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 1: fleet of with Matt Ryan. Yeah. By the way, Jonathan 554 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 1: Taylor hadn't had a hundred yard games since the opener. 555 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: My son has him in fantasy and was like so excited, like, 556 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,480 Speaker 1: holy couch Tylor is alive. He's like the number one. 557 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 1: He's done nothing all season and JT breaks off a 558 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: sixty six yard or down the sideline. He looks, he 559 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 1: looks sprided, did he not? He absolutely did. And and 560 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 1: then you couple all of that with the team with 561 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 1: the Raiders who appear mentally broken. I mean, this has 562 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 1: been for a couple of weeks. Now, I know that 563 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:28,920 Speaker 1: Derek Carr getting emotional on the in the post game 564 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 1: is going to be the one that gets all the 565 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 1: the headlines. And you know, you know, guy crying at 566 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: the podium, you know, SATs I get it. But lost 567 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 1: in the sauce of that whole situation, Davante Adams again, 568 00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 1: who does not speak like I don't think people realize 569 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 1: that that when he did those talk about commercials, that 570 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 1: was the most anyone had heard him talk since he 571 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 1: got to the NFL like Davante Adams is the next 572 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 1: to have Cooper Cup is like the best receiver without 573 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 1: an ego. I think that I've seen in football in 574 00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: a long time. And he had said before the season, 575 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:03,760 Speaker 1: you know, this offense is like I think learning Mandarin. 576 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 1: He said a couple weeks ago that I don't know 577 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 1: why we're getting away from what's working for us. We're 578 00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:10,480 Speaker 1: throwing the ball over him and then of a sudden 579 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 1: we want to establish the running game. I don't get it. 580 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 1: Then he gets asked yesterday after the loss, do you 581 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 1: think that players are are not buying into McDaniel's system. 582 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 1: Adams shrugs his shoulders says, I don't think we're like 583 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: f what he's talking about, or I'm going against the grain. 584 00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 1: It's just a matter of executing when it's time. It's 585 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,239 Speaker 1: like you might see it as Oh, he didn't really 586 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 1: say anything in that comment. For when a guy who 587 00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 1: doesn't speak says something even remotely controversial, that should sound 588 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 1: alarm bells all throughout the Vegas alamita maven alulb be 589 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: anymore the Vegas headquarters. Like Josh McDaniels is turning into 590 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 1: the Adam Gaze of the Raiders. Like Adam Gaze has 591 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:01,680 Speaker 1: claimed to fame and the reason why it getting jobs was, Hey, 592 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 1: I called plays for Peyton Manning. I was the guy 593 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 1: behind the Denver Broncos offense that was blowing everybody out. 594 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,959 Speaker 1: I should be the next head coach of the Miami Dolphins. 595 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 1: I'll be the next coach of the New York Jesse. 596 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: Each time, it was established very quickly. This guy is 597 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:20,480 Speaker 1: in way over his head. He thinks he's smarter than 598 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: the rest of the room. He's not a leader of men. 599 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 1: Josh McDaniels claimed to fame has always been I called 600 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 1: plays for Tom Brady everywhere he goes since then. Denver 601 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 1: Broncos easy starts off hot, ends up sucking. He gets 602 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 1: fired because he was cheating, leaves the Colts at the 603 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 1: Altar when he gets hired to go there and decides 604 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 1: to run back and tuck tail, go back to New England, 605 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 1: gets hired in Vegas, promptly turns a playoff team which 606 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 1: got more talent, like I don't, It's not like they. 607 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: He came to a New York Giants franchise which was floundering, 608 00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 1: and he kind of just had a make lemonade out 609 00:31:58,080 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 1: of lemons and see what happens, which is exactly what 610 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 1: Brian Day was doing. He got a playoff roster, added 611 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:05,000 Speaker 1: the best receiver in football in my opinion, Davante Adams. 612 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 1: Added one of the better pass rushers of this generation 613 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 1: and challenge Jones and got demonstrably worse. He's a horrible 614 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 1: head coach. It should have been a Tarmat game for him. 615 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:16,959 Speaker 1: I know they're at home, but don't even let him 616 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 1: in the locker room. Just leave his bag right there 617 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: outside of the door. Call an uber form and say, hey, 618 00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,040 Speaker 1: you're gonna send you home. Here's the rest of your salary. 619 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 1: I do like that. Adam gay analogy's horrible. That's really good. 620 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 1: I just checked the go ahead and still that take 621 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 1: it on the herd. Chandler Jones zero sacks, zero quarterback 622 00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 1: hits zero on the season, unbelievable. I think he has 623 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:38,400 Speaker 1: half a sack. He was Maybe they gets stripped it 624 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 1: from a I don't know. I think I saw that 625 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 1: a couple that's that's oh yes, yes, because he has 626 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 1: he has one half a sack. Because they said on 627 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 1: the broadcast it would have been his first, uh, full 628 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 1: sack on the season, and Matt Ryan escaped because he's 629 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 1: so elusive, and then Max Crosby had to bring him down. 630 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 1: So I saw Mark Davis entered the locker room after 631 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 1: the game. Uh. It doesn't sound like anyone as any 632 00:32:56,640 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 1: intel on what happened, But it would be like Buster 633 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 1: Douglas over Mike Tyson if a coach on that staff, 634 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 1: not McDaniels, probably because they you know, is David's gonna 635 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 1: want to owe him a lot, because remember you had 636 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:13,239 Speaker 1: to pay a settlement with Gruden. Is David's gonna want 637 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 1: to pay McDaniels. I don't know. So somebody is going 638 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 1: to be the fall guy. Obviously it ain't gonna be 639 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 1: car But I think this team rob is gonna look 640 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,800 Speaker 1: a lot different next year. Now. I was also looking 641 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 1: around Darren Waller, if you remember, there was some talk 642 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 1: about him maybe going back for Davante Adams in that 643 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 1: trade way back when um the trade happened. It didn't 644 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,240 Speaker 1: happen with Waller didn't go. But at the trade deadline, 645 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 1: I don't know if it was Breer or Glazer, one 646 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 1: of them said Darren Waller was in some trade talks. 647 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 1: I would not be shocked if Darren Waller's out of town, 648 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:45,080 Speaker 1: and I would not be shocked at the end of 649 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 1: the season if Josh Jacobs they were like, hey, thanks 650 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 1: for your service, but but you can go get free agency, 651 00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:53,760 Speaker 1: get paid. I like Jacobs a lot, but I I 652 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 1: think McDaniel's selling point, the only one he can have 653 00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 1: to the owner, is hey, man, you gotta let me 654 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 1: get my guys in here. I'm not a bad coach. 655 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 1: I'm dealing with what you guys had. And then the 656 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 1: owners should say, well, bro, they got to the freaking playoffs. 657 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,279 Speaker 1: Now McDaniels will show the numbers that it was all 658 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:12,799 Speaker 1: spoken mirrors and look at the point differential and lucky 659 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 1: coin flip games and blah blah blah. Let me get 660 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,880 Speaker 1: Bryce Young or whoever he wants a quarterback. I'm not 661 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,440 Speaker 1: saying I know that that's not intel. I don't know 662 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:26,719 Speaker 1: who McDaniels wants as his quarterback. Yeah, I'll just I'll 663 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:30,680 Speaker 1: hold off. But you know, look who he's worked with historically. Um, 664 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 1: and I think that could probably be a guide. But 665 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,239 Speaker 1: there's still a lot of process to play out here. Um, 666 00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:39,160 Speaker 1: but I cannot see any scenario or Derek Carr's back, 667 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 1: and I feel bad drilling down on your raiders, so 668 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 1: deep up. But the Jets are off this week. Um 669 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:46,320 Speaker 1: so I just imagine. I know we're gonna move on, 670 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 1: but imagine if you're Davante Adams, you leave Aaron Rodgers, 671 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 1: not because you want to leave, but only because you're saying, 672 00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 1: I don't want to be with a young quarterback. Jordan's love. 673 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 1: I want to play with this guy. So he goes 674 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:59,440 Speaker 1: with Derek car He's gonna get there. What I'm assuming 675 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 1: if the things go the way they're going, Carl b 676 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:06,399 Speaker 1: Bench what week fourteen, Nathan Peterman the last three games 677 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 1: with their tanking the rest of the way, and then 678 00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 1: you drop the new quarterback? And can you sell that? 679 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 1: Can you sell that to Adams? Rob Is? Hey, Hey, Davante, 680 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: settled down, don't ask for a trade. Okay, here's what 681 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 1: we're gonna do with Car off the books. We can 682 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 1: go by two. We can go buy a cornerback, and 683 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 1: we can go buy an edge rusher. And we got 684 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 1: draft picks that we will be able to get in 685 00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:30,359 Speaker 1: in the trade for Car. And we wait, you talking 686 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:33,160 Speaker 1: about my best buddy. I don't know how Adams is 687 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 1: gonna handle it. It's gonna be interesting. But McDaniels is 688 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 1: gonna sure as should have to sell us, sell them 689 00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:41,759 Speaker 1: hard on We're not going down, Um, we'll be bouncing back. 690 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's true. The other team that 691 00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:45,279 Speaker 1: is done, I think, Rob and I think you'd agree 692 00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:48,080 Speaker 1: with me, is the Denver Broncos. I really want to 693 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 1: be done with this team forever. Russell Wilson, I think 694 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 1: he's gonna escape scoring because so much other stuff happened yesterday. 695 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,759 Speaker 1: But basically at one pass to a wide open dude 696 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 1: who never cut an NFL pass and he went like 697 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 1: sixty five yards for the touchdown. After that he did 698 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:08,239 Speaker 1: jack shit. Russell Wilson and the Broncos are toast. It's over. 699 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 1: They lost to uh Ryan Tannehill and whoever Westbrook a keyne. 700 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 1: I don't even know who that guy is. He catched 701 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 1: two touchdown passes. If I look at the highlights and 702 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:19,839 Speaker 1: see Patrick certain guarding him, I am gonna flip out 703 00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:21,759 Speaker 1: because I had money on the Broncos. I had him 704 00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:23,759 Speaker 1: on the contest and I you know, listen, you're never 705 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 1: gonna go perfect. But like Deadford, let nothing and they 706 00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:31,239 Speaker 1: gave up seventeen straight Nathaniel Hackett. I don't. Basically, we 707 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 1: just just start the who who's coaching the Denver Broncos 708 00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 1: next year? Um, because they ain't gonna be Hackey. That 709 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:40,040 Speaker 1: guy is a clown coming off. I think they had 710 00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,319 Speaker 1: the bye week, right, they played in London, then they 711 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:44,840 Speaker 1: had the bye week. So the good coaches off the 712 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:47,440 Speaker 1: by come in with a great install, right we've been 713 00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 1: we were starting to tape on this team. We know 714 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,440 Speaker 1: what they can can't do. We've got the descript boom 715 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:56,880 Speaker 1: Hackett punts like the first five possessions. Nothing not like what, no, 716 00:36:57,120 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 1: nothing at all. Table with the Giants comes in, first drive, Boom, touchdown, 717 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:04,560 Speaker 1: Shannon Boom, right down. I think they settled for a 718 00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 1: field goal, but they still drove down the field like 719 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:11,080 Speaker 1: Hacket couldn't even move the football, So I'm out on him. 720 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,839 Speaker 1: I do have to say, I don't know if Miami 721 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:16,440 Speaker 1: Dolphin fans are still listening it deep into this podcast, 722 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,399 Speaker 1: but I've got to say a quick word about to Yes, 723 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 1: I had the Browns and the contest. Congratulations to a 724 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:26,440 Speaker 1: Tyreke really good performance. Jeff Wilson looked good for Miami. 725 00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:29,920 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill obviously is very good. He didn't even have 726 00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:31,880 Speaker 1: a monster game, but they didn't really need him and 727 00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 1: they scored thirty nine points. This was the most impressive thing. 728 00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:36,880 Speaker 1: And no Dolphins, Fann'll pick this up because they're all 729 00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 1: just geeked about to uh and Justin Herbert lost. Oh 730 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:44,359 Speaker 1: my gosh, you know that kind of garbage. Facing Myles 731 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:51,080 Speaker 1: Garrett and j Davian Clowney. They combined for zero quarterback 732 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:55,120 Speaker 1: hits obviously, zero sacks, zero tackles for loss. They were 733 00:37:55,200 --> 00:38:03,719 Speaker 1: completely neutralized to a three TVs. Eight five. I don't know, Rob, 734 00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: I know we're given Gable a lot of credit for 735 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,480 Speaker 1: what he's done with the Giants, but this, with this 736 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:12,839 Speaker 1: Mike McDaniels offense, I don't think they punted on the day. 737 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,360 Speaker 1: They might have deep in the fourth quarter, but basically 738 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 1: they had seven different guys with multiple catches and to 739 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:22,320 Speaker 1: h since bouncing back from the concussion, ten touchdown, zero interceptions, 740 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,239 Speaker 1: Cleveland actually led seven nothing first drive. I was like, yeah, 741 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:28,920 Speaker 1: Brownies gonna take advantage of this Miami secondary. And it 742 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:31,760 Speaker 1: was like Miami touchdown, im a field goal, Miami touchdown, 743 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:34,480 Speaker 1: turn it around downs because McDaniels aggressive, his ship and 744 00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 1: then there was a brutal Chubb fumble. But Rob, I've 745 00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 1: been a to a doubter. The guys having a great season. Undeniable, 746 00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:45,880 Speaker 1: he has played great. This Jeff Wilson pick up from 747 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:49,280 Speaker 1: the Niners, he bat like a hundred seventeen yards. Listen, 748 00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 1: it's easy for us to sit here look at schedules 749 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 1: and pencil and losses to certain teams. And I've done 750 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,480 Speaker 1: that a lot of people did that with the Jets. Oh, 751 00:38:57,560 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 1: come on, Aaron Rodgers and Russell Wilson on the road 752 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:02,360 Speaker 1: back to act. No way they're winning that, no shot. 753 00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 1: Jets end up winning both of them and one of 754 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:07,319 Speaker 1: them they faced the backup quarterback. But who cares they want. 755 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:10,920 Speaker 1: I've looked at the Miami's Dolphins schedule and I said, 756 00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:12,760 Speaker 1: yet they listen, they're gonna be good. At the beginning, 757 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:14,480 Speaker 1: I didn't think there're gonna be seven and three good. 758 00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:19,399 Speaker 1: But wait until December hits and they have a buy 759 00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:23,360 Speaker 1: now to get healthy rest up. After that, they play Houston. 760 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 1: That's a that's a win. That will be at least 761 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:32,000 Speaker 1: seven point favorites. Rob at San fran at l A Chargers. 762 00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:35,319 Speaker 1: The Chargers should have Alan or Williams back by then 763 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:37,880 Speaker 1: I'm assuming they stay on the West coast. Right, You're 764 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,440 Speaker 1: not gonna go Miami, San Fran, back to Miami, back 765 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:42,719 Speaker 1: to l A. You're just gonna go Miami, stay on 766 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 1: the West coast. Then the big one at San Fran, 767 00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:53,320 Speaker 1: at Chargers at Buffalo Bills. So you're going from Miami 768 00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 1: to warm Weather on the West coast or decent Weather, 769 00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 1: Berry could be shitty. Who knows Chargers which is so 770 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:03,840 Speaker 1: far Buffalo December that will be a brutal game, and 771 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:07,040 Speaker 1: then green Bay and then back up north to New 772 00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,960 Speaker 1: England and then they close out with the Jets rob 773 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:15,120 Speaker 1: So after Houston they will play San Fran, which didn't 774 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 1: look great Sunday, but one Chargers, who should be healthier, 775 00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:24,840 Speaker 1: and they're they're always dangerous. Buffalo, green Bay potentially the 776 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 1: arrow pointing up for them. I don't know if that's fair. 777 00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:31,440 Speaker 1: New England. We don't know what's good to quarterback situation 778 00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:33,719 Speaker 1: is going to be. There's a scenario where they lose 779 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 1: like four or five of those games, or one or two. 780 00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 1: I don't know what to make of my mean, now, 781 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 1: are they a Super Bowl contender? I I think they've 782 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 1: got to be right outside the top five or six. Right, Oh, 783 00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:51,839 Speaker 1: I disagree. I think that their number two behind uh 784 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:55,800 Speaker 1: number two in the A f C or NFL. So 785 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:58,279 Speaker 1: you're a f C goes k C. Well, you know 786 00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 1: what if if I'm going to rank like over all teams, 787 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:02,719 Speaker 1: because in the NFC, it's it's hard to gauge because 788 00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:06,960 Speaker 1: it's such a wide open They're starting right, Like, if 789 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:08,719 Speaker 1: you were to give me odds, I'd say'd rather take 790 00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:11,480 Speaker 1: Tampa's OTTs to make the Super Bowl than Miami because 791 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:14,040 Speaker 1: of the division of the conference they plan. But in 792 00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,320 Speaker 1: terms of like the overall power rankings of the NFL, 793 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:20,760 Speaker 1: I got Miami second. They games that two has finished 794 00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 1: seven and oh two attack of tanglow excuse me. First 795 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:28,279 Speaker 1: in QB are first and passer rating first, in yards 796 00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 1: per attempt third, and completion percentage fourth in yards per game. Okay, 797 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:37,080 Speaker 1: let's just quickly go over the teams. Came back with 798 00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:39,960 Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles, too. He beat Since he came back, 799 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 1: he beat Pittsburgh, which is train wreck, dumpster fire, bad 800 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:48,920 Speaker 1: on whatever you want to use. Detroit garbage is a 801 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 1: safe ward. Chicago arguably the worst defensive the league. Right now, 802 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 1: they've They've scored twenty nine or more points I think 803 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,319 Speaker 1: in four straight games and lost all of them because 804 00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 1: they can't stop anybody. Might be three games and then Cleveland, 805 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 1: which I thought was gonna get healthier and be able 806 00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:09,360 Speaker 1: to slop. So I'll ask again, how good are the 807 00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:13,399 Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins before that? Well, with backup? This is what's 808 00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:18,080 Speaker 1: with backups? They lost to the Vikings, Jets, and Bengals 809 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:23,799 Speaker 1: before that impressive win over the Patriots to start once 810 00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:27,680 Speaker 1: in a lifetime, come back against the Ravens, and survive 811 00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:33,920 Speaker 1: a wild game against Buffalo. I just I don't think 812 00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:35,520 Speaker 1: it's that cut and dry. I've got to give them 813 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:37,880 Speaker 1: credit obviously, and they're gonna be Houston and moved eight 814 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:42,799 Speaker 1: in three. But these final six games, I mean, all 815 00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,359 Speaker 1: those teams either have a winning record or their five. 816 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,000 Speaker 1: I think this will be the real test, and at 817 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:52,640 Speaker 1: well at two of them will be in cold weather outdoors, 818 00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:55,759 Speaker 1: and we'll see how this offense of mc daniels does. 819 00:42:55,760 --> 00:43:00,719 Speaker 1: Because we have seen the San Francisco offense struggle. I mean, 820 00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:03,319 Speaker 1: I'm remembering San Francisco. Green Bay in the playoffs could 821 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 1: do like nothing they want on special teams. San Francisco 822 00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:09,440 Speaker 1: and the Rams. They really couldn't do much. It was 823 00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:12,400 Speaker 1: like a Deebo Samuel huge play. So we've seen them 824 00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:17,319 Speaker 1: kind of get bodied in the playoffs. Number two. Huh uh, Well, look, 825 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:19,719 Speaker 1: everything you said is true, and I'm not going to 826 00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:23,560 Speaker 1: dispute that. The only thing I'm gonna say is if 827 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:25,640 Speaker 1: you're gonna give and it's not you, but in general, 828 00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 1: if you're gonna give the Philadelphia Eagles from being the 829 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:30,799 Speaker 1: last undefeated team, then you need to give the same 830 00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:35,280 Speaker 1: credit to the Miami Dolphins because their resumes are eerily similar. 831 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:36,839 Speaker 1: It's like, hey, who have you beaten? And a matter 832 00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:42,480 Speaker 1: of fact, I'll say those wins against Buffalo and Baltimore 833 00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:45,279 Speaker 1: by Miami are better than anything that Philadelphia has done 834 00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:48,200 Speaker 1: this season. All Right, we call up the Eagles schedule 835 00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:52,480 Speaker 1: here like wait, hold on, hold, hold on, wait, which 836 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:56,040 Speaker 1: one's Buffalo? And who Buffalo and balt Okay, so Buffalo 837 00:43:56,160 --> 00:44:02,799 Speaker 1: was his home. Eagles best wins home against Minnesota, home 838 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:09,960 Speaker 1: against Cooper. Rah. Yeah, that's all I got. But they 839 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:14,279 Speaker 1: I'll say this, they did kill Pittsburgh at home. They 840 00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:17,799 Speaker 1: smoked Pittsburgh was Miami didn't even cover against them. Um, 841 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:20,239 Speaker 1: But then again, you know, Philly struggled with like big 842 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 1: Trail Jacksonville fourteen. Nothing couldn't put away Detroit totally, um Arizona. 843 00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:29,960 Speaker 1: I think Miami's for real and and to your part, 844 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:31,279 Speaker 1: will find out here in the next month or so 845 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:34,279 Speaker 1: how real they are. But I think that this team, 846 00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:36,440 Speaker 1: provided they can stay healthy, their weapons on the outside 847 00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:40,520 Speaker 1: are tremendous. To A is a much better quarterback than 848 00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:42,799 Speaker 1: I ever gave him credit for. I'm not saying he's 849 00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 1: elite like that, but he's accurate. He th good anticipations 850 00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:49,200 Speaker 1: having a great season, and they're scheming guys open, and 851 00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:52,040 Speaker 1: he's he's not afraid, to your point, hit the backup 852 00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:54,440 Speaker 1: fullback and the third string tight end if he has to, 853 00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:57,560 Speaker 1: because Tyree Hill and Jalen Wando draw so much attention 854 00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:00,640 Speaker 1: that he's just carbon teams up right now. So yeah, 855 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:03,879 Speaker 1: I can't put a wide receiver as like m VP 856 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:05,960 Speaker 1: of the league. I could do the offensive m VP, 857 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:09,720 Speaker 1: but most valuable obviously not the weird one with Tyreek 858 00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 1: and Tua is is to a different player than he 859 00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:15,839 Speaker 1: was last year. And some people would argue, well, yeah 860 00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:18,560 Speaker 1: he has Tyreek Hill, Okay, but he also has a great, 861 00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:22,400 Speaker 1: great play caller and McDaniel, who is clearly one of 862 00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:25,480 Speaker 1: the best young minds of football in the league. And 863 00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:28,960 Speaker 1: it's like, okay, so who's more valuable? Well, what happened 864 00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:33,800 Speaker 1: when they had Teddy and Skyler? Okay, so he's Tyreek 865 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:37,160 Speaker 1: more valuable. That's a fair question. He sucks up a 866 00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:39,719 Speaker 1: lot of oxygen for defenses. That's the one guy you 867 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:42,840 Speaker 1: can't get beat by. That being said, there will be 868 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:47,440 Speaker 1: some good tests for Tyreek Hill coming up. Namely, he's 869 00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:49,960 Speaker 1: gonna face and I can't. I can't give Stanley credit 870 00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:53,920 Speaker 1: Houston's Derek Stingley, who was drafted before Sauce Gardner. What 871 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:55,640 Speaker 1: a freaking embarrassment that is. I don't know if you 872 00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:57,520 Speaker 1: saw the highlight. Did you see Stanley get beat by 873 00:45:57,600 --> 00:46:00,279 Speaker 1: Darius Layton, missed the tackle and then Slay goes like 874 00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:03,600 Speaker 1: fifty yards for the tuddy. Yeah not good. Um, so 875 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:08,360 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill will face Sanford doesn't have any elite corners. 876 00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:11,640 Speaker 1: Chargers lost J. C. Jackson, so maybe he'll draw um 877 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:15,040 Speaker 1: the young Hayward trade, devious White. I'm assuming he's gonna 878 00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:19,560 Speaker 1: be back JR. Alexander Struggle Bus and then of course 879 00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 1: Sauce Gardner. So my m v P Valut ballot after 880 00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:26,840 Speaker 1: week ten, Rob I would say number one, just because 881 00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:31,200 Speaker 1: they're undefeated, Jalen Hurts number two. Patrick Mahomes, I would 882 00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:35,279 Speaker 1: go three. Sauce Gardner. Now I'm just kidding, Okay, to 883 00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:38,120 Speaker 1: a tug Vla. I think I have to have him 884 00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:41,680 Speaker 1: at three, and I'll go kirk Cousins at four. And 885 00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 1: that's where the that's where things get weird because it's 886 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:51,320 Speaker 1: like Jay, really, Kirk Cousins one touchdown, two interceptions against 887 00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:54,799 Speaker 1: the Bills, and now he's your fourth again, think about 888 00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:58,160 Speaker 1: how m VP voters vote. Guys, are you number one 889 00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:01,480 Speaker 1: or two in your conference? Are you the quarterback? That's? Really? 890 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:05,920 Speaker 1: All the batters? They ain't the heisman. We're like Jalen 891 00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,400 Speaker 1: Waddle can win out. It was a DeVante Smith j Waddle. 892 00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:12,520 Speaker 1: She's a couple of big mess ups. I don't know 893 00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:14,120 Speaker 1: people are gonna yell at me for, but we're leaving 894 00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:18,360 Speaker 1: them in no edits um. DeVante Smith could went to Hysman, 895 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:22,160 Speaker 1: running backs all over the place, winning hisman's um. Overall, 896 00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:27,279 Speaker 1: a really good Sunday in the NFL. Remember, and I'll 897 00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:29,719 Speaker 1: close with this before we do one other thing. So 898 00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:32,440 Speaker 1: fourteen teams made the playoffs last year going through the 899 00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:38,800 Speaker 1: NFC real quick Green Bay. I would say they're fifty 900 00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:45,560 Speaker 1: fifty prospect rob we'll hire maybe sixty. We're the same 901 00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:50,680 Speaker 1: Ballpark Phillies in forty niners. I think they're a lock. Yeah, 902 00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:54,279 Speaker 1: I think Dallas is a lock. Arizona made it last year. 903 00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:56,799 Speaker 1: I think they're on thin ice. I have some Colt 904 00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:58,960 Speaker 1: McCoy thoughts, will say for tomorrow because nobody really cares 905 00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:02,520 Speaker 1: about Arizona now. But I'll just say this, My guest 906 00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:06,200 Speaker 1: is Kingsbury was much happier with Colton McCoy's performance than 907 00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:09,280 Speaker 1: Kyler Marie Cope. McCoy. Ain't she waving off his plays 908 00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:12,120 Speaker 1: at the line of script. She's running, what they say, 909 00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:16,360 Speaker 1: And of course colcoy can't run. So I think you know, 910 00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:19,960 Speaker 1: Kingsbury's tailoring his game plan to McCoy at any rate 911 00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:23,840 Speaker 1: rams out and then Tampa Bay. I mean they I 912 00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:25,880 Speaker 1: just don't see who could win that division over Tampa. 913 00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:28,680 Speaker 1: So if you're looking like, hey, j what NFL Super 914 00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:31,880 Speaker 1: NFC futures would you buy? So if you want to 915 00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:33,879 Speaker 1: take a flyer on on Tampa, I don't think it's 916 00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:37,320 Speaker 1: the worst bet in the world we'll see um in 917 00:48:37,520 --> 00:48:42,880 Speaker 1: the a f C. Vegas is out, Steelers are out, Titans, 918 00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:47,160 Speaker 1: They're going back to the playoffs. That is, Chiefs are in, 919 00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:52,080 Speaker 1: Bills are in. I think the Bengels are good shape, 920 00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:55,080 Speaker 1: but not a lock because that schedule gets very tough. 921 00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:59,839 Speaker 1: And finally, the New England Patriots, who play the Jet 922 00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:03,680 Speaker 1: this week in it's gonna be a st It's gonna 923 00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:06,400 Speaker 1: be a stressful week for me. You're boy's gonna be stressed. 924 00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:08,640 Speaker 1: But the good news is I finished my tennis ladder, 925 00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:10,919 Speaker 1: so I don't have to play two tennis matches this week, 926 00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:13,319 Speaker 1: and by two I would do a warm up match 927 00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:15,640 Speaker 1: every week so I'm not coming in cold, and then 928 00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:19,120 Speaker 1: two days later played by match. This past week, I 929 00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:23,040 Speaker 1: had an incredible performance in my warm up match, this 930 00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:26,200 Speaker 1: guy play, who's just a really good player, solid, doesn't 931 00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:28,279 Speaker 1: make mistakes. I beat him for the first time in 932 00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:30,560 Speaker 1: a set and then lost the second set. So I 933 00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:34,000 Speaker 1: played this twenty six year old guy Friday Night, beat 934 00:49:34,080 --> 00:49:35,880 Speaker 1: him in the first set six four, was so excited, 935 00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:38,400 Speaker 1: lost four six, and then lost in the tiebreaker. So 936 00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:41,920 Speaker 1: the ladder ended fine. And I know Rob's like scoffing, 937 00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:44,759 Speaker 1: why are we talking tennis? Dude? The Lakers one last night. Um, 938 00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:46,759 Speaker 1: but I'm done with the tennis ladder, so I'm gonna 939 00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:50,480 Speaker 1: be start getting back into some some hoops. Your boy 940 00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:53,359 Speaker 1: hasn't played a lot of hoops lately, which really hurts me. Um. 941 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:56,359 Speaker 1: At any rate, Rob, we before we get the best bet, 942 00:49:56,840 --> 00:49:59,319 Speaker 1: should we do ninety seconds of the Lakers or it's 943 00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:01,680 Speaker 1: not even worth it? They won? What does it matter? 944 00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:04,719 Speaker 1: The net stink? Is that basically it? Or yeah, I 945 00:50:04,760 --> 00:50:06,960 Speaker 1: mean shout out to Anthony Davis very quiet. What was 946 00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:09,719 Speaker 1: it thirty seven and fifteen or something like that. Yeah, 947 00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:13,840 Speaker 1: really enhancing trade stock. Right. You know, if you're the 948 00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:18,560 Speaker 1: Atlanta Hawks and you just got beat up by um 949 00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:21,240 Speaker 1: Joel Embiid, I think and bad game the business Friday 950 00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:25,400 Speaker 1: night and beat an incredible weekend not for nothing. I mean, 951 00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:28,520 Speaker 1: nobody cares because the NFL is happening. Um, but Joel 952 00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:31,600 Speaker 1: bead Like is going to annihilate the Hawks. Janice is 953 00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:34,080 Speaker 1: going to annihilate the Hawks. You want to go get 954 00:50:34,120 --> 00:50:37,560 Speaker 1: Anthony Davis, put all your ships in the middle. But 955 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:40,040 Speaker 1: this is how weird the n NBA is, right, So 956 00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:42,960 Speaker 1: I keep in my timeline Sunday night during Sunday Night football, 957 00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:47,080 Speaker 1: preparing for the podcast, I'm seeing all these Darius Garland 958 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:49,799 Speaker 1: at twenty seven and the fourth serious Garland at fifty one. 959 00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:53,440 Speaker 1: It's like, oh wow, I go to look Rob the 960 00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:57,359 Speaker 1: Calves lost. Nobody even mentioned that the different Wolves beat him. 961 00:50:57,400 --> 00:51:01,960 Speaker 1: I'm like, wait, you're showing me Darry Garland highlights and 962 00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:06,600 Speaker 1: they lost the NBA is weird? Isn't it just very 963 00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:09,680 Speaker 1: super weird. I know you don't care one other quick notes. 964 00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:11,600 Speaker 1: It's all for It's all for Twitter. It's just like, oh, 965 00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:14,320 Speaker 1: look at this highlight. Look at these stats, Like Russell 966 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:17,040 Speaker 1: went off. Did you know that? I mean he was tremendous. 967 00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:19,400 Speaker 1: It was just awesome. And you see all this like this, 968 00:51:19,719 --> 00:51:21,839 Speaker 1: I mean all the Steph Curry means that you see 969 00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:23,880 Speaker 1: like oh Sturry cooking again. And then it's like, oh, 970 00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:25,480 Speaker 1: well they're five and seven. Oh I didn't even see 971 00:51:25,520 --> 00:51:28,000 Speaker 1: Donovan Mitchell did not play for the Caps. But yeah, 972 00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:31,520 Speaker 1: speaking of I was watching this intently because you know, 973 00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:34,239 Speaker 1: I have some futures on the Sacramento Kings, who I 974 00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:37,360 Speaker 1: believe started Owen four go to l A beat the 975 00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:41,640 Speaker 1: Lakers Friday. Darren Fox was insanely good. Did you watch that, 976 00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:46,720 Speaker 1: Robert No, no, okay, Darren Fox is good. And Keegan Murray, 977 00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:50,040 Speaker 1: my guy, I have Rookie of the Year futures on 978 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:54,040 Speaker 1: Keegan Murray and Ben Matherin and obviously Paolo, but you know, 979 00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:58,279 Speaker 1: I think Paulo's probably the likely favorite. The King's at 980 00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:02,560 Speaker 1: home get to five hundred by beating the Golden State Warriors. 981 00:52:02,880 --> 00:52:05,040 Speaker 1: Like you said, the Warriors are owing seven away from 982 00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:08,279 Speaker 1: their home state. What's it called, Oracle. I don't even 983 00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:10,000 Speaker 1: know what it's called anymore. It used to be Oracle 984 00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:14,160 Speaker 1: naming Chase Center. There you go. Thank you, gosh, Rob 985 00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:16,640 Speaker 1: on your game on our early Monday. Clearly I had 986 00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:21,040 Speaker 1: too much sports intake on Sunday. But listen, I'll say 987 00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:23,800 Speaker 1: it in a whisper Secondmental games are going to the playoffs. 988 00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:26,719 Speaker 1: They really are, guys. I'm excited. It's gonna be one 989 00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:29,879 Speaker 1: of my better calls I think of the NBA c's 990 00:52:30,920 --> 00:52:33,800 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 991 00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:36,840 Speaker 1: the nation. Catch all of our shows at Fox sports 992 00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:40,040 Speaker 1: Radio dot com and within the I Heart Radio app 993 00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:44,359 Speaker 1: search f s R to listen live. We'll quickly wrap 994 00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:48,160 Speaker 1: up Monday Night football and you guys know we've been 995 00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:49,759 Speaker 1: kind of on a heater with these. I think we 996 00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:55,000 Speaker 1: had Thursday night under um well, I don't even remember 997 00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:57,640 Speaker 1: what last Monday was or last Sunday. The days are 998 00:52:57,640 --> 00:52:59,480 Speaker 1: all bleeding together. And I know you guys are getting 999 00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:02,399 Speaker 1: this from from your from your wives, girlfriends, baby mama 1000 00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:06,600 Speaker 1: or whatever. It's like the holiday cards, seasons happening. It's 1001 00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:10,120 Speaker 1: like planning for Thanksgiving flights for the parents. Like and 1002 00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:12,800 Speaker 1: now listen, my wife fortunately does the bulk of this, 1003 00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:14,440 Speaker 1: but I have to, like, you know, pay attention to 1004 00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:17,399 Speaker 1: know what's going on. And I'm out of the loop 1005 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:19,400 Speaker 1: because you know, when you have a good gambling someday, 1006 00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:22,479 Speaker 1: you're like, oh, I gotta double down. I barely looked 1007 00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:25,080 Speaker 1: at Eagles Washington. I think I saw ten and a 1008 00:53:25,160 --> 00:53:29,080 Speaker 1: half or eleven. I can't give out a double digit 1009 00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:32,880 Speaker 1: favorite right now. Oh I know what last Thursday was. 1010 00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:35,880 Speaker 1: Eagles were double digit favorites against the Texans and did 1011 00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:39,480 Speaker 1: not cover. Now it's all coming back to me. I 1012 00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:45,080 Speaker 1: think the move guys. It's Monday night football, it's prime time. 1013 00:53:45,800 --> 00:53:49,320 Speaker 1: What you're gonna do when the under comes calling for you? 1014 00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:53,120 Speaker 1: So we'll go under forty three and a half Eagles 1015 00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:57,920 Speaker 1: Washington Eagles eleven point favorites. The number is down a 1016 00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:00,640 Speaker 1: little bit. Looks like an open forty four and a half, 1017 00:54:00,760 --> 00:54:03,759 Speaker 1: so it's down a point. But primetime unders, you know, 1018 00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:06,480 Speaker 1: they're a thing. Although with the Eagles that can be dicey. 1019 00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:10,120 Speaker 1: They the Eagles in Washington, the familiarity is pretty crazy, 1020 00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:13,000 Speaker 1: and other than a twenty four point second quarter for 1021 00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:15,800 Speaker 1: the Eagles, it was like pretty even the rest of 1022 00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:18,920 Speaker 1: the way, this Washington front is going to be able 1023 00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:20,600 Speaker 1: to stop the run. So this becomes a jail and 1024 00:54:20,719 --> 00:54:24,239 Speaker 1: hurts game, and if Washington get any secondary play at all, 1025 00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:27,000 Speaker 1: I think they're in great shape. I actually think Taylor 1026 00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:30,400 Speaker 1: Heineke is on the struggle bus here big time. We 1027 00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:32,279 Speaker 1: saw him kind of melt down against the Vikings and 1028 00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:36,359 Speaker 1: cost all of us money. That sucked. But I think 1029 00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:41,239 Speaker 1: there's a scenario here where it's like Eagles maybe even 1030 00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:45,040 Speaker 1: thirty three two six. I just don't see it being 1031 00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:48,680 Speaker 1: very close. And I don't know, Rob, do stole points 1032 00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:52,279 Speaker 1: matter to a team like the Philadelphia Eagles or are 1033 00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:55,120 Speaker 1: enough people still doubting them? Well here come the Vikings. 1034 00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:57,839 Speaker 1: Well the Eagles haven't played anybody like your producer Rob 1035 00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:02,320 Speaker 1: g He said that earlier, remember it comes, Tampa Eagles 1036 00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:09,520 Speaker 1: feel a little forgotten. I mean there has been conversation 1037 00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:11,640 Speaker 1: about them going perfect on the seasons. I don't know 1038 00:55:11,680 --> 00:55:14,640 Speaker 1: how forgotten you can be when you're being mentioned along 1039 00:55:14,719 --> 00:55:18,439 Speaker 1: the lines of the New England Patriots. I mean there's 1040 00:55:18,440 --> 00:55:21,040 Speaker 1: been actual conversation saying, hey, will they be better off 1041 00:55:21,160 --> 00:55:23,920 Speaker 1: losing a game because it thinks the pressure off of you. 1042 00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:28,600 Speaker 1: I'm just that idea. I think it's a little silly. Well, 1043 00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:30,719 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think that they're under the radar. 1044 00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:33,960 Speaker 1: I think that they're maybe they're not as sexy as 1045 00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:35,719 Speaker 1: what we've seen from these other teams. They're not having 1046 00:55:35,760 --> 00:55:38,640 Speaker 1: these miracle comebacks the way that the Minnesota Vikings are. 1047 00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:42,040 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts, as great as he is, is not Patrick Mahomes. 1048 00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:45,680 Speaker 1: You know, so it is you know who? The long 1049 00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:48,279 Speaker 1: story short though, I like I like Washington plus the 1050 00:55:48,360 --> 00:55:50,239 Speaker 1: eleven in this part, I don't. I don't hate that. 1051 00:55:50,360 --> 00:55:52,800 Speaker 1: You know who's starting to look like the Eagles is 1052 00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:57,520 Speaker 1: justin Fields in the Chicago Bears. Remember last year, the 1053 00:55:57,600 --> 00:55:59,879 Speaker 1: Eagles decided we're not going to have our young guy throw. 1054 00:56:00,360 --> 00:56:02,480 Speaker 1: We're just gonna hand it off, run the football, grinded out, 1055 00:56:02,480 --> 00:56:05,000 Speaker 1: grinded out, stick around and play defense and run the football. 1056 00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:07,440 Speaker 1: And they got to the playoffs that way. And then 1057 00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:09,160 Speaker 1: when you can't run against Tampa and you've got Jalen 1058 00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:14,279 Speaker 1: Hurt throwing, it's thirty to nothing. Um, I think I 1059 00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:15,839 Speaker 1: see that in the Bears. We're gonna have to say 1060 00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:18,319 Speaker 1: that this is going on very long. Uh, it's one 1061 00:56:18,400 --> 00:56:20,600 Speaker 1: day a lot happening. We didn't even get to pack 1062 00:56:20,680 --> 00:56:24,360 Speaker 1: twelve meltdown Saturday night. I mean, listen, it was a 1063 00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:26,640 Speaker 1: tough weekend for Rob, but you know what, it's all 1064 00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:28,920 Speaker 1: about surviving and advancing. And I'm sure Rob cleaned up 1065 00:56:28,920 --> 00:56:30,520 Speaker 1: in fantasy. How'd you do in fantasy? By the way 1066 00:56:31,320 --> 00:56:34,160 Speaker 1: I'm rolling, I will have one game tonight. Technically I 1067 00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:36,640 Speaker 1: need Terry McLaren to outscore candidate game well by like 1068 00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:38,719 Speaker 1: one point. And then I went but the other one, 1069 00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:42,080 Speaker 1: I'm cruising to a forty point victory. M hm. That's 1070 00:56:42,080 --> 00:56:43,880 Speaker 1: good to hear. My son and I went four know 1071 00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:46,960 Speaker 1: this weekend, and well, I mean, dude, I've got one 1072 00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:49,239 Speaker 1: of the best teams I've ever had. I mean, I 1073 00:56:49,360 --> 00:56:52,040 Speaker 1: hit the jackpot this past week. I told my son. 1074 00:56:52,160 --> 00:56:55,520 Speaker 1: Like here, the matchups tight end, you're kind of weak, 1075 00:56:56,160 --> 00:56:58,320 Speaker 1: you know, you could you could go for Cole Commet, 1076 00:56:58,440 --> 00:57:00,719 Speaker 1: who's lets me down all the time. Or you could 1077 00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:03,440 Speaker 1: go for Moreau because Waller's out and he opted for Moreau, 1078 00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:06,359 Speaker 1: who did well. Kemet had even a bigger game than 1079 00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:08,960 Speaker 1: just giving out free fantasy advice. All right, that's all 1080 00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:11,799 Speaker 1: for now, good luck, enjoy Monday night football. We'll talk 1081 00:57:11,880 --> 00:57:12,640 Speaker 1: to you tomorrow.
