Watch them fall into 44 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 1: oblivion the second half of this season. They get to 45 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 1: the finish line and then they gag it away and 46 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: it's all your influence because you went down to the crossroads. 47 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:16,919 Speaker 2: I do want to tell you this. 48 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 1: I did. I did have a transmitter, and I did 49 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,679 Speaker 1: tell DJ Moore on that play in overtime. Hey dude, 50 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:25,639 Speaker 1: don't worry about running this one out. We're gonna throw 51 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 1: it to you long on the next play. Just don't 52 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 1: run it out. It's fine. I don't even think he's 53 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:30,679 Speaker 1: gonna throw a tea. Don't eve worry about it. You 54 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 1: given all the scandals and sports, you probably don't want 55 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 1: to put that on the air, even has some joke. 56 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 4: Just just just a little word of advice. 57 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 1: Don't worry about it. Don't worry, don't run it out. 58 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: It's okay. It's just just, you know, just kind of 59 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,919 Speaker 1: meander around. And you know, I don't even think there's 60 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:48,799 Speaker 1: gonna be video of you after this. It's okay. He's 61 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 1: not gonna throw a tea, he's not gonna throw it taser. 62 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 2: Well, you know, you know how he could have helped 63 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 2: himself by running the route out. 64 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 1: No no, well no no, no, I mean, once that's done, 65 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 1: that's done, be a stand up guy in the locker 66 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 1: room and either say no, this was the read and 67 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: this is why this guy was wrong. That guy was wrong, 68 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 1: or I slowed up footing, even if you want to 69 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 1: claim footing on your seventieth route of the day or 70 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: whatever it was. And when they do exit interviews and 71 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 1: you're clearing out your lockers, you show up then too. 72 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:24,079 Speaker 1: Because you don't do those two things, you're not helping 73 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 1: your cause. This is what What did I tell you, 74 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 1: big number one wide receiver. That's the only thing that 75 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: should be the only thing you go out and get 76 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: this offseason that you really need to fill and not 77 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 1: rely on the draft. On. 78 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 2: Dude, I'm Santa Claus.

We're not 94 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 2: going to complete cha might. 95 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 4: Teen teams, you're definitely bound to hit two. So congratulations. 96 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 1: My preseason picks the beginning of the year, it took 97 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: like fifteen teams. My official picks still alive. Both are 98 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:20,679 Speaker 1: still alive. 99 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:22,599 Speaker 2: Don't Jets give me this moment? 100 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 1: No, that was three years ago. Man, those three years. 101 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 3: Even still, even if it was three years ago, I 102 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 3: mean that it's not well, but for the sake of argument, 103 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 3: it was years ago. 104 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 1: It still, you know, really decimates anything else that came 105 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 1: after three years ago. I wasn't the only one when 106 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,159 Speaker 1: the Jets got Aaron Rodgers. I wasn't the only one. 107 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 5: Man. 108 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 3: I was the old man on the porch yelling this 109 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 3: is going to end badly. I really thought it was 110 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,919 Speaker 3: going to be more than a flag waving in four snaps. 111 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 1: But yeah, no, no, unfortunately, that was it. That was 112 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl for the Jets that year. 113 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 2: That was it. 114 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 1: Those four snaps, the one complete pass and yeah, that 115 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: was it. 116 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,280 Speaker 2: That was the only thing I did. 117 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: I mean, really, the best, I mean, the best part 118 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 1: of Aaron Rodgers was prior to the for everything good 119 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: was prior to the first snap he took with the Jets. Yeah, 120 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: that was everything that was good. 121 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 2: Now and now I boxed them. 122 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 1: Snap. Yeah, I know, I know, I know. It's you 123 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: know what, you know what. This is not about the Jets. 124 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: This is not about the Jets. We will make our 125 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 1: picks and I'll again both my teams are alive, still alive. Meanwhile, 126 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 1: college football today, the I mean really I love this 127 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: story because it's just shows that college football just has 128 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 1: no regulations, no rules, nobody steering the boat. Uh, the 129 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 1: College Football Playoff is going to stay at twelve teams 130 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 1: for next season? 131 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 2: Wait what I told you? For certain? This is going 132 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 2: to sixteen teams. 133 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 1: It's got to. It solves all the problems that they 134 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,359 Speaker 1: ran into this year. But I forgot one thing, sorry 135 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 1: college football, and that they couldn't figure out a way 136 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: to make it happen. Apparently the biggest thing was there 137 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,840 Speaker 1: was a difference of opinion between the Big Ten and 138 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 1: the SEC as to what they wanted the expansion to be. 139 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: Whereas the SEC wanted to go to sixteen teams and 140 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 1: the Big Ten wanted in a year or two to 141 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: go to twenty four teams, which is like, oh my goodness, 142 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: going And because of that, it's staying at twelve for 143 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: next year. This is what happens when there's no adults 144 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 1: at a table, because that's what college football is, zero 145 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 1: adults at a table, and everything that college football does 146 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: is just every five minutes something changes. I can't believe 147 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: the Big Ten wanted to actually make it a whole 148 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 1: thing where we're not going to vote for the playoff. 149 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: We can't go to twenty four. What are you worried about? 150 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: Just bring it up next year. They'll change it next year. 151 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 1: College Tell me the last time college football did something 152 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: that stayed in place for longer than a year before 153 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: it was changed or altered or adjusted or gotten rid of. 154 00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 2: Entirely. 155 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: College football is in every five It's not even a 156 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 1: year to year sport. It's a month to month sport. 157 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: So I don't know why the Big Ten melted down 158 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 1: and held their breath and soon O kick on to 159 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: twenty four teams. 160 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 2: We don't want it. 161 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: Just wait, wait until next year and people are upset 162 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: with sixteen teams and we'll go. Then we'll get to 163 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: twenty four. I don't know why you had to draw 164 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: the line in the sand on this. So now nobody's 165 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: getting more teams in next year. The Big Ten's not 166 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 1: getting more teams in, that SEC is not getting more 167 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 1: teams in, and all the issues you could have figured 168 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: out this year. What do we do with teams who 169 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 1: make it to their conference championship games and lose a 170 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: game and have three losses? How do we deal with them? 171 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: How do we deal with them? Over teams that don't 172 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 1: make it into a conference championship game and have a 173 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: couple of losses at Miami, All of that would have 174 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: been solved with sixteen teams, Everything would have been solved. 175 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 1: So of course college football can't solve it. This is 176 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: typical when there's no adults at the table. 177 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 3: What's great about this is on this Friday we have 178 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 3: at least three monster college related stories. Now we can 179 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,239 Speaker 3: do for the next I don't know, twelve hours because 180 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 3: they're just so nuancedin kind of catastrophic. In this particular case, 181 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 3: it always goes back to the same idea of whoever 182 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 3: has a little bit of power wants a little bit 183 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 3: more and they want to stre You know, when we 184 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 3: talk about guaranteed placement, is your third place team better 185 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 3: than our third place team if we both have a 186 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 3: three loss team as its strength to schedule, go on 187 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 3: to a bunch of tie breakers and you fight over 188 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 3: what that mythical next last entrant to the playoff field 189 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 3: would be. And when you're the sec in the big ten, 190 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 3: the two big dogs of this, of course, you're you're 191 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:37,319 Speaker 3: fighting for your fiefdoms. It's like anything, right, people that 192 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 3: go into hiring, what are they gonna do. They're gonna 193 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 3: bring people they know and their friends on board. Hi, 194 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 3: everybody that has forgotten how business works, whether it's professional 195 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 3: sports or the guy selling widgets down the street, it's 196 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 3: all the same thing. And in this particular case, it's 197 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 3: if you've got power, you want a little bit more. 198 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 3: We always joke about Montgomery Burns and I trade it 199 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 3: all for a little more. And that's exactly what why 200 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 3: we have an impass here. And you get that pesky 201 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 3: notre dame thing sitting out there in terms of the 202 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,319 Speaker 3: promises that have been made to them, and so that 203 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 3: throws a wrinkle into all of it. As you tried 204 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 3: this expansion and the next set of playing rules, not 205 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 3: only for your regular season, but how moneys are spent 206 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,719 Speaker 3: and capped if there's a cap, and how these have 207 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 3: to be adjudicated, and that's why we got to where 208 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,559 Speaker 3: we are today. It's like, hey, is everybody okay with 209 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 3: just moving forward this way? Yeah, okay, we'll fight more 210 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 3: and get more lobbyists involved for the next round. 211 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,439 Speaker 1: You know. And this is this is part of the 212 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,199 Speaker 1: agreement of what they This is part of the story 213 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: of what happened today, is that the changes that we 214 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 1: found that were rumored. That we found out is that hey, 215 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,959 Speaker 1: if you if you win your conference, you know, you 216 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:54,479 Speaker 1: automatically go to the playoffs, just like in college basketball, 217 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 1: and Notre Dame is guaranteed a spot if they get 218 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: in the top twelve. Okay, number one, Now, okay, first 219 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: rule is good. 220 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:03,079 Speaker 2: I love it. 221 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: If you win power for conference, you win your conference, 222 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: you get in. I think that. I think that's the 223 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 1: right call right now. The new look PAC twelve gets 224 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 1: that as well. So that's pretty cool. 225 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 2: So I like it. 226 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: Right, you don't have to be a high seed. But 227 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 1: but I kind of like that rule the whole Notre 228 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,680 Speaker 1: Dame thing. I come away from this. The two things 229 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: that I really want the most is next year, I 230 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: want the play. I want Big Ten and this is 231 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 1: I say this in a Michigan house, right, I've gown 232 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: to a Michigan house, Michigan gear, Michigan. I want the 233 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 1: Big Ten and Notre Dame to get snubbed so bad 234 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:35,079 Speaker 1: because I have had it. 235 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 2: I have had it well and a big Mac. But 236 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 2: I'll have a big Mac whenever I want to. 237 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: But I have had it with big with the Big ten, 238 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 1: and there, Hey, you know we are so far above 239 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:46,959 Speaker 1: everybody us in the SEC. Oh no, no, now, it's 240 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 1: just us. They've had a big run in the last 241 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:51,559 Speaker 1: three or four years. And I get it, right, you 242 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,079 Speaker 1: have three national champions in a row. I understand this, 243 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: But all of a sudden, they're acting like, hey, for 244 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,439 Speaker 1: forty years, we've been carrying the water for college football 245 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:02,959 Speaker 1: and they've not been right, they've not so now I 246 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: want to see them take a duck. And Notre Dame 247 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: I have I mean, they're superiority. 248 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 2: Like I have just had it with we. We don't 249 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 2: want to go to a bowl game because we got excluded. 250 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:13,959 Speaker 1: Forget about the seniors since their hope and dream last 251 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:15,559 Speaker 1: time they get to go to a bowl game. No no, no, 252 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 1: no no, And even Marcus Freeman said, boy, we should 253 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 1: be playing right when when the bowl season get boy, 254 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 1: we should be playing. 255 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 2: No, we're gonna go to a bowl because we because we. 256 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 1: Didn't get to go, and now we want to guarantee 257 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 1: that in the top twelve we have to get in 258 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: because we're Notre Dame. I've had it with that superiority. 259 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: I really have those two things. I want to see 260 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 1: them take a dive next year. I want to see 261 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 1: Notre Dame undefeated, ranked thirteenth all season long and get snuffed. 262 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:41,679 Speaker 1: I want to see them thirteen. No Tre Dame. Look 263 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 1: at the schedule they're playing, and they're playing they close 264 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,319 Speaker 1: against Syracuse, my goodness. I mean, Steve Angel's gonna throw 265 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: for five touchdowns. I mean, but I want to say, 266 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: go under. I want to see Notre Dame twelve and 267 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: oh at thirteen and get excluded because those two things 268 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,959 Speaker 1: I've had it with right now with hey, we're so 269 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 1: superior to everything else. And this is why college football 270 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,559 Speaker 1: is the way it is because again, there's nobody in 271 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 1: charge of anything, and there's again no adults at the table, 272 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:08,839 Speaker 1: and everybody's allowed to make whatever rules they want to. 273 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,559 Speaker 2: So Notre Dame can stand up and say we're Notre Dame. 274 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 2: We're gonna we're gonna do We're not gonna join a conference. 275 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 2: No no, no, we're gonna do this. 276 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 1: We're gonna We're gonna maintain our independence and still get 277 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: what we want. Now it's conference is good for everybody 278 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,320 Speaker 1: else at this point, you can do it. You can 279 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 1: join because it's about the greater good. No no, no, 280 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: there's no greater good in college football. It's what benefits 281 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,839 Speaker 1: me right now at this moment in time. So those two, 282 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 1: those two entities no tredame to Big ten. I hope 283 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: they take a big dive and they get snuffed next year. 284 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 2: All right, let's go through a couple of these things. 285 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 3: First off, try growing up in Chicago with a bunch 286 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 3: of people that have absolutely no connection to the fighting 287 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 3: Irish but claim them nothing to do with the campus. 288 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,199 Speaker 3: They can't even claim that they're Catholic, and you have 289 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 3: the superiority complex that goes with that. 290 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 2: Deal with that for a minute. 291 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 3: By the way, you also gave up your household. You're 292 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:58,439 Speaker 3: a Syracuse household, dare you, or at least get that 293 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 3: split up there to say, hey, we're a Michigan house. Old, 294 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 3: you've seen it all power, what's wrong with you? 295 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:08,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I've been live Well, well, hey my wife went 296 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: to Michigan. 297 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 2: That's half the house. That is, that is half the house. 298 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, the way you gave it, you said, you gave 299 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,959 Speaker 1: it up all together. We're a Michigan house, not even 300 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,760 Speaker 1: a Michigan and Syracuse. You just took yourself out of 301 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,320 Speaker 1: the equation. But in terms of the Big Ten, it's 302 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 1: not a matter of whether you've been dominant for forty years. 303 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,079 Speaker 1: It's a matter of whether you're dominant under this new 304 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: set of rules of engagement and to right now the 305 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 1: Big ten. Can you even got fine bomb apologizing for 306 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:40,719 Speaker 1: talking out? Is uh backside coming into the year and 307 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 1: throughout the year you ever got him going intoing a 308 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 1: mea culpa realizing hey, maybe things have changed a little bit. 309 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 3: So yeah, it's it's not a matter of the forty years. 310 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,719 Speaker 3: That's the note name thing. And if we want to 311 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 3: be right, that's fifty years, sixty years at this point. 312 00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 3: But when we get down to it, not to mention 313 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 3: they yes they did make a national title. Don't equate 314 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 3: me to cam Newton. As we're sitting here and they 315 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,959 Speaker 3: do have Marcus Freeman. All those things are great. The 316 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 3: big TV revenue, no question about it. But the point 317 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 3: with the Big ten is that right now they can 318 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 3: play by by a bit of their own. 319 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:16,560 Speaker 2: Set of rules. 320 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 3: You've got the massive TV deals revenue coming in and 321 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 3: right now you're you're dominating. So yeah, you're gonna get chesty. 322 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 2: But but like I said, this, this is not good 323 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 2: for the game. 324 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 1: This is just pulling college football in a different direction 325 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 1: every five minutes. All right, there's there's gotta be something. 326 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 1: There's no one to pull that emergency brake and say, okay, 327 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 1: we're really out of control here. Players are getting paid 328 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 1: in the tens of millions of the Look at just 329 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: in the last five years, all the money we have 330 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 1: to get shell out. Coaches are quitting, players are leaving. 331 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 1: We don't even know what kind of bowl system we have. 332 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 1: Play like it is some it is completely the wild 333 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 1: West Man, And there's gotta be There's gotta be some 334 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 1: kind of Wiatt. There's gonna be some kind of doc 335 00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 1: Holiday to come in here.

Ready 385 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:25,159 Speaker 1: to get ready, get ready. The Buffalo Bills search for 386 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,640 Speaker 1: a new head coach again. The Bills are the gift 387 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 1: that keeps on giving, right. I mean, this is now 388 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 1: six days in a row. We get a big headline 389 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,439 Speaker 1: because the Bills fired Sean McDermott. This is just awesome. 390 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,919 Speaker 1: The Bills search for a new head coach has taken 391 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 1: them to Philip Rivers, who has never coached at the 392 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 1: collegiate or professional level. Interviewed with the Bills today in Florida. 393 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 1: Now he's, you know, still the coach at his high 394 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,959 Speaker 1: school in Fair Hope, Alabama. He of course came out 395 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,120 Speaker 1: of retirement this year to play a handful of games 396 00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 1: with the Colts. Really impressed. He could still sling it 397 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 1: up and down the field a bit. It didn't go 398 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: well for the Colts in the end, but you know, 399 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers for being out of the game for nearly 400 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:10,640 Speaker 1: five years, pretty good. And now here come the Bills 401 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 1: looking at Philip Rivers to be their head coach. Now, 402 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 1: the first big thing is this, right, The first big 403 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:19,920 Speaker 1: thing to know is this is that there was a 404 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 1: lot of talk when Rivers came out of retirement. Are 405 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: you going to do this because you're pushing your Hall 406 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 1: of Fame induction right So now, because he played again, 407 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: he can't go in for another five years. He was 408 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 1: set to potentially get voted in. Now we'll talk to 409 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 1: Jason Cole NFL Insider, Pro Football Hall of Fame voter 410 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 1: coming up next hour on the show. He said, yeah, 411 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: I don't know that Rivers would have got in right away, 412 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:42,880 Speaker 1: but after a couple of ballots, that's what you're looking 413 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 1: at for Philip Rivers. Now they can't talk about the 414 00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 1: guy for another five years. So there was that big 415 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 1: debate right now. I said, Oh my goodness, Philip Rivers 416 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 1: is coming out of retirement. What's going to happen with 417 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:53,920 Speaker 1: this guy? Oh my goodness, I'm watching with one one 418 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,359 Speaker 1: with my eyes between my fingers. What's going to happen 419 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:56,679 Speaker 1: to the guy? 420 00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 2: Now? 421 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: Luckily he was okay, came out of it, fine, play 422 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 1: okay enough in a couple of games. But the biggest 423 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:07,399 Speaker 1: thing is I guarantee you there's no way the Bills 424 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 1: are interviewing Philip Rivers for their head coaching job if 425 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 1: he didn't come out of retirement and come back and 426 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 1: play in the NFL and get on everybody's radar screen again, 427 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 1: because the Bills, if they fire Sean McDermott and Philip 428 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: Rivers is coaching high school football in Alabama, there's no 429 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 1: way the Bills are saying, hey, Philip Rivers, let's go. 430 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: But seeing him come back, seeing the respect that he 431 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:32,639 Speaker 1: has around the league, seeing how his comeback was received, 432 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: seeing that he's able to come back and is able 433 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 1: to get right back in with his teammates who followed 434 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 1: him and all said wonderful things about him. It's like 435 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers got a chance to get back in front 436 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: of everybody and hermind. Everyone, Yeah, this is the guy 437 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 1: was I had the respect of my teammates. I was 438 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:49,879 Speaker 1: able to come back here and play with guys that 439 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 1: are twenty five years younger than I am. And I'm 440 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,119 Speaker 1: sure the Bills said, hey, you know what might not 441 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 1: be crazy, and also, hey, it would get us out 442 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:58,880 Speaker 1: of the stink of what's going on with Sean McDermott, 443 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 1: because you know, there's a petition going on. The fans 444 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: want McDermott back. What gets us out of this, and 445 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 1: that's let's go talk to Philip Rivers. And it's a 446 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: great idea. And I guarantee you he is not in 447 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 1: this position to potentially be a head coach in the 448 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:15,400 Speaker 1: NFL unless he came back and got back on everybody's 449 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: radar screens over the course of the past month and 450 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 1: a half. 451 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I'm glad we talked about that yesterday. 452 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:24,120 Speaker 3: He could find that whole discussion about the petition yesterday 453 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 3: as it developed and we look at it. Here is 454 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 3: when Philip Rivers got back, and that clock for the 455 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 3: Hall of Fame. And you can all debate whether he 456 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 3: is or isn't a Hall of Famer. What it did was, 457 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:45,640 Speaker 3: immediately for radio, television, print, and the ships at sea, 458 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:49,119 Speaker 3: everybody wanted to talk to an ex teammate, ex coach, 459 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:53,119 Speaker 3: x anything of Philip Rivers to find out about his 460 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:57,119 Speaker 3: football acumen, his mindset, what kind of teammate he was, 461 00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 3: what kind of leader he was.

I'm 552 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 1: gonna do the smart thing and leave that to a 553 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 1: really good defensive coordinator, right, like Philip Rivers has the 554 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:37,920 Speaker 1: cachet to come in and get an immediate buy in. 555 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,399 Speaker 1: Because when you think about that, it's like, who's the 556 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 1: coach that's gonna come in and is going to get 557 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 1: that buy in from Allen? You talked about, hey, let's 558 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,920 Speaker 1: get him to the next level, but not that you 559 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: always need that the quarterbacks blessing, but you're talking about 560 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,200 Speaker 1: one of the top two most talented quarterbacks in the 561 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 1: NFL of the last decade, and so yeah, it kind 562 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 1: of matters that the coach that comes in you kind 563 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,120 Speaker 1: of get that blessing or the nod or you get hey, 564 00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: you know what, Yeah, this is our guy and I 565 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 1: get it. And is it going to be a defensive 566 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 1: coordinator young DC that comes in that all of a sudden, 567 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 1: Josh Ally, this is the way that's gonna go. Oh, 568 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:13,879 Speaker 1: I don't know, it's gonna be an offensive coordinator that 569 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:17,160 Speaker 1: Josh Allen's not really familiar with, and maybe his idea 570 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 1: of an offense doesn't mesh. Yeah, I don't know. But 571 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 1: here comes Philip Rivers, and Allen said wonderful things about 572 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 1: Rivers when he came back. So he watched his games 573 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,200 Speaker 1: and it was amazing to see him play at the 574 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,120 Speaker 1: level he did and see him communicate with his teammates 575 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 1: the way he did. Like that's almost like a blessing 576 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 1: right there that you've already gotten from Josh Allen, even 577 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 1: though he had no idea that that's what was going 578 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 1: on at the time. Like, you know, there's things that 579 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 1: he solves in Buffalo. Look, the defense is still going 580 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 1: to be an issue in building the offense is gonna 581 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:45,679 Speaker 1: be an issue and going out getting the right playmakers. 582 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 1: But that's something for every head coach with this year, 583 00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 1: when when it's such a weird season and you can 584 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 1: sit back and say, I've heard worse ideas.

Hey, but everybody got retained and they're 1001 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:34,239 Speaker 2: ready to run it back. 1002 00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:36,960 Speaker 1: Eh yeah, sure, No, never mind that you're going to 1003 00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:38,640 Speaker 1: watch a guy that you kicked out of the building 1004 00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:41,279 Speaker 1: potentially go to the Super Bowl as a quarterback or 1005 00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:43,759 Speaker 1: another team that seems really underpaid. 1006 00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:45,719 Speaker 2: Now at thirty million dollars a year, when did. 1007 00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:51,600 Speaker 3: Justin Jefferson and Joe Burrow demand trades They can go Reteamo, man, 1008 00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:52,320 Speaker 3: I'll tell. 1009 00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:54,600 Speaker 4: You, Jason promo says you have the Jets in the 1010 00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 4: super Bowl. 1011 00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:57,719 Speaker 2: It does. It's not a promo, it's a show. 1012 00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:00,839 Speaker 4: Open highlighted it so the master years ago. 1013 00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:05,080 Speaker 2: It's from three years it really was. That was a 1014 00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:07,040 Speaker 2: bold strategy, like a million to one. 1015 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:09,640 Speaker 1: Tysan and Mary still played drops of something I said 1016 00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:12,719 Speaker 1: in twenty fourteen. So I mean, come on, man, it's 1017 00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:17,279 Speaker 1: it eas different years ago. Didn't I just say yes? 1018 00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:19,680 Speaker 1: When when the Jets were eliminated, I picked them for 1019 00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:21,279 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl? You thought there was gonna be a 1020 00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:22,200 Speaker 1: special exemption. 1021 00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:25,920 Speaker 3: Lody Johnson would say, I'm the president of everybody, the 1022 00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:27,440 Speaker 3: Jets in the playoffs. 1023 00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:33,440 Speaker 1: Let's go AFC Championship Game first, Patriots and the Broncos. 1024 00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:36,680 Speaker 1: I picked the Broncos for the Super Bowl before the season. 1025 00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:39,759 Speaker 1: I'm sticking with them. I laid out yesterday how it's 1026 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:42,600 Speaker 1: gonna have to go for them. They're gonna you gotta 1027 00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:45,080 Speaker 1: come out. Jared Siham is going to run the same 1028 00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:47,799 Speaker 1: offense that Bo Nicks had. There's gonna be wrinkles, there's 1029 00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:50,680 Speaker 1: gonna be excitement, there's gonna be juice. You're gonna see 1030 00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:53,239 Speaker 1: the Broncos come with the same type of confidence that 1031 00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:55,520 Speaker 1: they would have if Bo Nix was the quarterback. Because 1032 00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,600 Speaker 1: you can't win otherwise. There's no tape on Jared Ciam. 1033 00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:01,080 Speaker 1: You have no idea what to expect. Sean Payton is 1034 00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:04,480 Speaker 1: a tremendous offensive coach, and the first half things are 1035 00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:07,719 Speaker 1: gonna go Denver's way. They gotta put touchdowns on the board, 1036 00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:10,400 Speaker 1: not field goals. Because the second half is the Patriots 1037 00:47:10,440 --> 00:47:12,600 Speaker 1: start getting what Jared's didn't want to do. Remember the 1038 00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:15,720 Speaker 1: guys a backup. After all, it's gonna get much more difficult. 1039 00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:18,479 Speaker 1: There's more three and outs and the Patriots are gonna 1040 00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:21,319 Speaker 1: start denting the scoreboard. They gotta get everything they can 1041 00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:23,880 Speaker 1: done in the first half, and I'm gonna say they do. 1042 00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:26,759 Speaker 1: And as New England starts to eat into the league 1043 00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:28,759 Speaker 1: in the second half, this is when you see the 1044 00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:32,759 Speaker 1: Broncos defense stand up and win this game for them. 1045 00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:35,919 Speaker 1: Drake May has shown you I will give the ball 1046 00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:39,160 Speaker 1: to the other team, especially when he gets frustrated. The 1047 00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:41,600 Speaker 1: best thing about Drake May look give him all kinds 1048 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:45,319 Speaker 1: of credit this year, his decision making, his confidence, knowing 1049 00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:47,880 Speaker 1: where to go with the football. He never gets rattled. 1050 00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:51,000 Speaker 1: He gets to his third fourth progression like some guys 1051 00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:53,840 Speaker 1: stick on their first progression. But when you don't have 1052 00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:55,840 Speaker 1: a game where you're making a lot of plays and 1053 00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:59,319 Speaker 1: the Broncos defense is Look, it's the best defense left 1054 00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:02,600 Speaker 1: in the NFL playoffs. It's gonna get frustrating May as 1055 00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:05,400 Speaker 1: a young quarterback. He's going to force a couple of plays. 1056 00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:08,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say the Denver defense wins it with a 1057 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:11,000 Speaker 1: big play at the end. They will frustrate May. They'll 1058 00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:13,480 Speaker 1: get at least a couple of turnovers. Denver to the 1059 00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:17,080 Speaker 1: Super Bowl with Jared Stidham. Twenty to sixteen is your 1060 00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:19,040 Speaker 1: final score. I know the Stidham thing. 1061 00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:22,239 Speaker 3: I was at the trading card spot going through some 1062 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:25,520 Speaker 3: stuff earlier and Stidham was the talk of the town 1063 00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:28,560 Speaker 3: and I was watching people buy stacks of him. They're 1064 00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:32,800 Speaker 3: making their bet with their wallet ahead of this big start. 1065 00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:35,480 Speaker 3: I'll tell you the guys that are gonna matter in 1066 00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:43,920 Speaker 3: this giant thing ready, Wilson Bradbury on when you Moses, Morgan, 1067 00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:47,880 Speaker 3: Moses and Will Campbell. Those five guys, can they stop 1068 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:51,920 Speaker 3: the Denver pass rush which accounted for sixty eight sacks 1069 00:48:52,920 --> 00:48:54,200 Speaker 3: in the regular season. 1070 00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:55,680 Speaker 2: That's the tale of the tape. 1071 00:48:56,040 --> 00:49:00,440 Speaker 3: Keeping Drake May clean and letting him process normally, not 1072 00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:03,800 Speaker 3: getting sped up as we've seen. As you so alluded 1073 00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:06,600 Speaker 3: to in terms of being careless with the football. This 1074 00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:10,080 Speaker 3: point spread like sentiment has been there. We talked about 1075 00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:12,360 Speaker 3: it that a lot on last night's show of you know, 1076 00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:16,279 Speaker 3: the talking points and how folks little engine that could 1077 00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:19,719 Speaker 3: kind of thing for Stidham and a love of Sean 1078 00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:23,520 Speaker 3: Payton and whatever else. But they've also put with their 1079 00:49:23,560 --> 00:49:26,239 Speaker 3: wallets because the spread's gone from five and a half 1080 00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:32,000 Speaker 3: New England before the week really went on to it's 1081 00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:35,160 Speaker 3: now a four point spread. So hopefully you got in 1082 00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:39,160 Speaker 3: early if you were looking to maybe back the Patriots 1083 00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:41,800 Speaker 3: on this one. I'll still take them to win the 1084 00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:46,319 Speaker 3: game outright. One in the trench is late, one extra play, 1085 00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:52,160 Speaker 3: one missed read by Stidham, field goal kicking contest perhaps 1086 00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:55,680 Speaker 3: in the end, but two great defenses. And I can't 1087 00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:58,640 Speaker 3: wait to watch the chess match between Peyton and Vrabel 1088 00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:01,719 Speaker 3: in this one, right, which defense comes up with one 1089 00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:04,399 Speaker 3: more stop? Because the thing with Denver's defense is we've 1090 00:50:04,440 --> 00:50:08,480 Speaker 3: watched it carved up. If you don't get home, you 1091 00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:11,239 Speaker 3: can get them in the secondary. It's take nothing away 1092 00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:13,919 Speaker 3: from the individual efforts of certain. 1093 00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:14,239 Speaker 2: And those guys. 1094 00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:17,120 Speaker 3: I mean, they've played some magnificent football overall, but the 1095 00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:22,560 Speaker 3: last few weeks they've gotten got and there's an opportunity, so. 1096 00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:25,640 Speaker 1: Are on opposite sides. The AFC Championship game to the 1097 00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:29,680 Speaker 1: NFC wee go, where once again I picked the Rams 1098 00:50:29,719 --> 00:50:32,560 Speaker 1: of the Super Bowl before the season. I'm sticking with 1099 00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:34,480 Speaker 1: the Rams. The key to this game is going to 1100 00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:37,640 Speaker 1: be the first quarter into the second quarter, the Rams 1101 00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:39,920 Speaker 1: defense again, which is the second best defense left in 1102 00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:42,279 Speaker 1: the playoffs, and that Seahawks are right there too. I mean, 1103 00:50:42,320 --> 00:50:44,400 Speaker 1: that's the big theme this year is defense have carried 1104 00:50:44,680 --> 00:50:46,400 Speaker 1: three of these four teams all the way to the 1105 00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:50,080 Speaker 1: final four. They have to frustrate the Seahawks offense, and 1106 00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:53,520 Speaker 1: they will because Sam Darnold, much like Drake May, will 1107 00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:56,720 Speaker 1: get antsy and he will absolutely give you the football. 1108 00:50:56,800 --> 00:50:58,640 Speaker 1: We've seen it before. We've seen it before in games 1109 00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:00,880 Speaker 1: against the Rams. The game's gonna be more of a 1110 00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:04,520 Speaker 1: rock fight, even though both offenses are good. The d'ser 1111 00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:06,719 Speaker 1: lights out and it will be more of a fight 1112 00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:09,400 Speaker 1: for points. But in a game like this, I'm not 1113 00:51:09,520 --> 00:51:13,120 Speaker 1: gonna take Darnald to go out over Matthew Stafford. I 1114 00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:15,320 Speaker 1: have more confidence that the Rams are gonna make the 1115 00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:18,600 Speaker 1: clutch plays offensively because I can see on big third 1116 00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:22,760 Speaker 1: and sevens this is where you see Stafford find Pooka Nakua, 1117 00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:26,000 Speaker 1: here's your big completion to Devonte Adams, and slowly he 1118 00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:28,239 Speaker 1: starts chewing up yards and they start being able to 1119 00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:31,640 Speaker 1: control the clock. They've made the clutch plays. They've played 1120 00:51:31,719 --> 00:51:34,400 Speaker 1: all season to get to this point, going back to 1121 00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:37,160 Speaker 1: where they were last year against Philadelphia. Not quite the 1122 00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:39,640 Speaker 1: inclement environment they had to play in in Philadelphia, not 1123 00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:41,480 Speaker 1: quite what they had to play in in Chicago. It's 1124 00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:44,239 Speaker 1: gonna seem like they're playing back in Los Angeles, but 1125 00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:47,440 Speaker 1: they'll make the clutch plays late. Darnald turns it over 1126 00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:49,839 Speaker 1: a couple of times and kind of a big theme 1127 00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:52,000 Speaker 1: with him in Drake May and the Rams went at 1128 00:51:52,040 --> 00:51:54,680 Speaker 1: twenty four to twenty and we got a Rams Broncos 1129 00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:55,239 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. 1130 00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:59,160 Speaker 3: Rams have done a good job of avoiding the catastrophe right. 1131 00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:02,840 Speaker 3: You didn't get the term over no drops, fairly clean 1132 00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:06,120 Speaker 3: although uneventful football for much of that game against the Bears. 1133 00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:09,279 Speaker 3: And you look at the year of living dangerously down 1134 00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:14,000 Speaker 3: the stretch, including a couple of head scratching lost go 1135 00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:16,879 Speaker 3: back to that game against Atlantic. Can we but all 1136 00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:19,399 Speaker 3: of that to say the thing for Seattle that I'm 1137 00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:22,160 Speaker 3: most concerned about is there's no charboney. I mean Veylas 1138 00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:24,680 Speaker 3: Jones got to chirp a little bit as the Bears 1139 00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:27,359 Speaker 3: went down in defeat. He's one of the guys that's 1140 00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:30,840 Speaker 3: up for them, as well as George Hallani Go Broncos 1141 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:34,359 Speaker 3: Boise State guy. But Kenneth Walker the third is going 1142 00:52:34,480 --> 00:52:37,600 Speaker 3: to have to be huge in this game. They're gonna 1143 00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:40,280 Speaker 3: have to establish the run early. And that's the strength 1144 00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:43,640 Speaker 3: of this Rams defense is its front right, opportunistic in 1145 00:52:43,719 --> 00:52:46,719 Speaker 3: the secondary, but all predicated on slowing down the run, 1146 00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:52,800 Speaker 3: forcing you into disadvantageous long second and long third down situations. 1147 00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:57,759 Speaker 3: So all that said, that defense also swarms and have 1148 00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:00,279 Speaker 3: used it before. If you're new to the show, come in. 1149 00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:02,080 Speaker 3: If you've heard it before, you're gonna love it because 1150 00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:05,000 Speaker 3: you're gonna picture it in your head.
