00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 2: Welcome in What's Right with Nick Wright Episode to seventy nine,

10
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 2: seventy to seventy seven. Thank you very much to want Hey,

11
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 2: my apologies. I skipped ahead a bit a ton to

12
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 2: do uh important Monday night football game line night wasn't

13
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 2: the most well played game. And I'm gonna say this

14
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 2: before we get to the playoff picture in week ten

15
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:13,839
Speaker 2: everything NFL. I mean two, I guess he's just gonna

16
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,399
Speaker 2: play football the way he wants to play football, and

17
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 2: we all gotta be okay with it because he's he

18
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 2: is playing with quite a bit of reckless abandon including

19
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 2: leading with his head on an attempted tackle after an interception,

20
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 2: and I can't. I have to imagine even the defensive

21
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:39,320
Speaker 2: players are playing, you know, with a bit of their

22
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 2: you know, heart in their throat. So I it's a

23
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 2: weird viewing experience where you're just like, get the ball out,

24
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 2: go down, don't do that. Like So, I don't know.

25
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 2: I am a little squeamish watching to a play, and

26
00:01:55,640 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 2: he does not seem to be. He plays a style

27
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 2: last year that was different than at any other quarterback.

28
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 2: Ball out instantly, any pressure, go down. This year he

29
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 2: was struggling, stopped playing that style, suffered another brutal concussion,

30
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 2: and now has come back and seems to be like,

31
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 2: well screw it. So I don't know what we do

32
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 2: with that. But that's my viewing experience watching Tua. All right,

33
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:33,359
Speaker 2: here's what missed the cut. Bronni's G League debut, the Saints'

34
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 2: interim head coach. We don't do scatological humor on this show.

35
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 2: The producers should know this. Two hundred and seventy seven

36
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 2: episodes in that probably didn't even need to be on

37
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 2: the screen. And Demons's breakdown of Carolina versus the Giants

38
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 2: that missed the cut because it actually was kind of

39
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 2: a fun game. But that was the old six thirty

40
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 2: am West Coast start time. That was a zero watch.

41
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 2: Even though you're a Daniel Jones guy, I guarantee that

42
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 2: was a zero watch. So all that coming in. Did

43
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 2: your teaser hit this week? I don't even remember.

44
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 3: It didn't hit three team or hit pretty big? Yeah?

45
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 2: Three teamer hit?

46
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 3: Yeah? Wow?

47
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 2: What a run three team or teaser for Demansee, we'll

48
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,080
Speaker 2: get into that on the Gambling Show. My five picks

49
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 2: started out three and oh and sadly ended three and two.

50
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 2: Lost the Sunday night football game by the hook, and

51
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 2: but I had no business winning that game anyway. I

52
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 2: had Detroit laying points. Jared Goff goes full, you know

53
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 2: Jared Goff. And then Monday night I had the Rams.

54
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 2: They had some opportunities to steal it, but didn't. Speaking

55
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 2: of that, demands, let's get right into Monday night before

56
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 2: we get into the rest of the NFL.

57
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 3: Go ahead. Yeah, So, in a must needed win, Miami

58
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 3: keeps their season alive against the Rams last night. Could

59
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 3: you see Miami sneaking into the AFC playoff picture.

60
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 2: So Rams quickly. The Rams playoff hopes are very very

61
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 2: simple and siffer than Miami just got to win the division.

62
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 2: Because in the NFC right now, you have Detroit, Philly,

63
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 2: Atlanta are leading their divisions and are all going to

64
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 2: be playoff teams. You then have Washington and Minnesota both

65
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:25,479
Speaker 2: with seven wins, so those teams look very good for

66
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 2: the playoffs, and Green Bay sitting there at six and three,

67
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 2: which leaves you one team potentially out of the NFC West,

68
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 2: and the Cardinals are sitting at six and four, the

69
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 2: Niners at five and four, and Los Angeles and Seattle

70
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 2: at four and five. So for the Rams, that was

71
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 2: a bad loss last night. The question is, though, can

72
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 2: they make up enough ground to steal the four seed

73
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 2: and keep the Cardinals and the Niners out of the playoffs.

74
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 2: If you're the Rams, you're like, man, the Niners won

75
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 2: a game they almost blew at the end. If the

76
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 2: Bucks can just punch it in and then you have

77
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,840
Speaker 2: a game that you're the favored in that you end

78
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 2: up losing, that one's simple. The AFC playoff picture is

79
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 2: very very different because three of the divisions feel totally locked.

80
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 2: The Chiefs locked in the AFC West, the Bills triple

81
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,480
Speaker 2: locked in the AFC East, five games clear of the

82
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,840
Speaker 2: Dolphins and the Texans, even though they're not playing well

83
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,039
Speaker 2: as of late. The cult season has gone off, the

84
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,279
Speaker 2: Rails going to a thirty nine year old Joe Flacco,

85
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,719
Speaker 2: where the future and the present seem to be in trouble.

86
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 2: The Texans are gonna win that division. Then you have

87
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:53,720
Speaker 2: the AFC North, where Pittsburgh and Baltimore are going to

88
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 2: be fighting for that division. There's five playoff teams, and

89
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 2: then the Chargers, who have all of a sudden one

90
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:04,039
Speaker 2: six three in a row. They're six and three. Their

91
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 2: losses this year don't look bad at all. A ten

92
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,839
Speaker 2: point loss to Pittsburgh, a touchdown loss to Kansas City,

93
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 2: a two point loss to the Cardinals. Now they don't

94
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 2: have any great wins, but they look to be positioned

95
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 2: pretty well. So we are looking at one AFC playoff

96
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 2: spot for the following teams. Denver at five and five,

97
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 2: Indy at four and six, the Dolphins at four and six,

98
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:41,559
Speaker 2: and Miami sneaky alive at three and six. Miami's next

99
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 2: two games demonse home for the Raiders home for the Patriots.

100
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 2: You then are at the Packers. That's tough, but you

101
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:56,600
Speaker 2: also have two left against the Jets and a Browns

102
00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 2: game left. Your tough ones are Packers Texans. Now, So

103
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 2: can the Dolphins get to nine and eight maybe? And

104
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 2: would nine and eight be good enough? I think nine

105
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 2: and eight is probably going to get you in as

106
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 2: the seventh seed. The question is what will your tie

107
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 2: breakers be? Who else will be nine and eight? So

108
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 2: let's just go through it real quick, because I think

109
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 2: that in the AFC, the Chiefs, Bills, Steelers, Ravens, Texans

110
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 2: feel like close to one hundred percent for the playoffs

111
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 2: right now. Now the Steelers, by the way, quick note

112
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 2: there's seven and two and we'll talk about them later,

113
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 2: do you know, I mean, there's no way you would

114
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 2: know off the top of your head. I just I

115
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:51,080
Speaker 2: had been talking about it yesterday. Their final eight games

116
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 2: demands ey because it's insane. Does the Steelers no? It

117
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 2: incredibly tough. Wheelers have not played a single divisional game yet,

118
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 2: so they have six divisional games. Yeah, the Steelers and

119
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 2: the Bears to the two toughest divisions, two teams that

120
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 2: have not played a single divisional game. Really bad news

121
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 2: for the Bears. The Steelers have six AFC North games left.

122
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 2: Now you can say that's not that tough because the

123
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 2: Browns stink, the Bengals aren't that good, but it's the

124
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 2: AFC North, like those are gonna be slugfests. And their

125
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 2: two non divisional games are Philly and the Chiefs. So

126
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 2: that is actually really good news for your Ravens and

127
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,440
Speaker 2: their ability to climb up and steal that division. But

128
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 2: I don't think Pittsburgh's gonna fall out of the playoff

129
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 2: picture entirely, obviously, so we'll put them in even though

130
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 2: they have the brutal schedule, and the Chargers have given

131
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 2: themselves given themselves a little bit of a margin of error.

132
00:08:54,800 --> 00:09:00,600
Speaker 2: They end the year going Broncos, Patriots, Raiders. So as

133
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 2: long as the Chargers don't just fall apart over the

134
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:10,199
Speaker 2: next month, Bengals, Ravens, Falcons, Chiefs, Bucks, they should be good.

135
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 2: So that then again leaves us Broncos, Colts, Bengals, Dolphins,

136
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:22,560
Speaker 2: four teams for one spot. What do the Broncos have

137
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:29,559
Speaker 2: coming up home for the Falcons, at the Raiders, home

138
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 2: for the Browns, home for the Colts, and then very

139
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:38,199
Speaker 2: tough stretch at the Chargers at the Bengals, but maybe

140
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 2: a super lucky And we talked about this. If you

141
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 2: remember before we the Broncos preseason win total was five

142
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 2: and a half and we took the over. They're sitting

143
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 2: at five already, they were five and three. One of

144
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 2: the reasons they got the best Week eighteen game you

145
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 2: can get. They get the Chiefs in Week eighteen. And

146
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 2: the reason that's the best game you can it is

147
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 2: it's the one time all year if you have to

148
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 2: play the Chiefs you might not be playing Mahomes. So

149
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 2: the Broncos schedule is pretty beneficial for them. I'm almost

150
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 2: just ready to cross off the Colts. And the problem

151
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 2: is the Colts do have games left against the Giants, Titans, Jets, Jacks, Yis.

152
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 2: But man oh man, they are falling apart, so to me,

153
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,840
Speaker 2: I'm gonna remove them, and then you have the Bengals

154
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 2: and the Dolphins. Bengals schedule the rest of the way

155
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 2: not easy. At the Chargers Sunday Night Football, two games

156
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 2: against the Steelers, and then I guess it's not brutal

157
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 2: at the Cowboys, at the Titans, home for the Browns,

158
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:55,440
Speaker 2: home for the Broncos, and then we get to Miami,

159
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 2: which was the purpose of this conversation, and we talked

160
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 2: about their schedule earlier Raiders, Patriots plus two Jets games.

161
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 2: I'm not ready to cross off the Dolphins entirely. I

162
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 2: think the Bengals are the most dangerous of those teams.

163
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 2: But the Bengals might end up being like the eighth

164
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 2: best team in the NFL and not make the playoffs

165
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 2: because they've lost all of these heartbreakers to really good teams.

166
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 2: Having heard all that demands a Broncos, Colts, Bengals, Dolphins.

167
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 2: Who would be your bet to be the seventh seed

168
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 2: in the AFC.

169
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 3: Broncos, Broncos, Colts, Bengals, Dolphins. I can't really, I don't.

170
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 3: I honestly would have to go with the Dolphins because

171
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,719
Speaker 3: the Bengals, I don't know if they're going to be

172
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,440
Speaker 3: able to turn it back on Colts. I just don't

173
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:47,959
Speaker 3: believe in.

174
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, and the Broncos defense is really good, but I

175
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 2: don't buy. I think bo Nicks has played fine, maybe

176
00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 2: a little better than I expected. I don't think he's

177
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 2: been great. What they do have going for him, obviously,

178
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:03,959
Speaker 2: is they already have five wins and the Dolphins are

179
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:07,680
Speaker 2: only at three So I just I think that we're

180
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:11,559
Speaker 2: in a weird spot in the AFC where a lot

181
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 2: of the playoff picture is gonna be pretty set, but

182
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:19,440
Speaker 2: that's seven seeds wide open. In the NFC, meanwhile, we

183
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,840
Speaker 2: might be in a position in a few weeks where

184
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 2: the only real race is divisional races, like who's gonna

185
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 2: win it between Philly and Washington, who's gonna win the

186
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 2: NFC West, But the NFC West, whoever wins it could

187
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,320
Speaker 2: is likely also the only playoff team out of there.

188
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 2: This is the first time we've really done this on

189
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,720
Speaker 2: the show where we do like a full playoff picture,

190
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,440
Speaker 2: but through ten weeks is about the time it starts

191
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,280
Speaker 2: to crystallize and we can get into it all right.

192
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 2: One team we don't have to worry about missing the playoffs,

193
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,560
Speaker 2: of course, is the undefeated, two time defending champion Kansas

194
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 2: City Chiefs. Demons, go right ahead, and we'll get to that.

195
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:58,800
Speaker 3: Yeah. So it looked like the Chiefs are gonna lose

196
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 3: for a minute there, and they blocked the field goal.

197
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 3: At the end of the game, they pulled it out.

198
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 3: This dark magic just continues. But you were saying that

199
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 3: this stretch of Denver and Buffalo was going to be

200
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 3: complicated from Homes, and the Chiefs thought that they were

201
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 3: going to lose. They're now underdogs to Buffalo. I know

202
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 3: how you always say you should take the Chiefs when

203
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 3: they're underdogs. What are you doing here? Do you still

204
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:20,960
Speaker 3: think that the Buffalo is going to be the Chiefs?

205
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 2: Well?

206
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 3: Going against Mahomes.

207
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 2: For the year, this was a game I had penciled

208
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:33,560
Speaker 2: in as a loss. The Chiefs try to be good

209
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 2: League teammates, and since they win all the actual Super Bowls,

210
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 2: they like to have other teams have a chance to

211
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 2: win their super Bowl. And the Bill's regular season game

212
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 2: against the Chiefs is, of course Buffalo's super Bowl every year,

213
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 2: and they've wanted a few years in a row, and

214
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 2: so shout out to them. Last year, the Bill's Chiefs game,

215
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:58,560
Speaker 2: if you remember, was the Travis Kelcey lateral to Cadaria's

216
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 2: Tony game. He was lined up off sides and that

217
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 2: kind of got Buffalo rolling on their stretched in the season.

218
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 2: It was one of the low points for the Chiefs

219
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 2: all week. I said, I thought the Chiefs could lose

220
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 2: to Denver. It felt very trap gamy, and it played

221
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 2: out very trap gamey also Denver's defense. There's only two

222
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 2: defenses in the league that are top five scoring and

223
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 2: top five yardage, the Kansas City Chiefs and the Denver Broncos.

224
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 2: So that game, being a low scoring defensive slugfest shouldn't

225
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 2: have shocked anybody. And the one weakness right now on

226
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 2: the Chiefs is that left tackle spot, and Denver ate

227
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,400
Speaker 2: that spot a live all games starting left tackle went

228
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 2: out with injury. The rookie came in. He's not ready

229
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 2: right now. The starter came back in later, but he's shaky.

230
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 2: And listen the Chiefs. I will not abide people saying

231
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 2: the Chiefs got lucky. Getting lucky is the other team

232
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 2: missing the field goal making a damn play? Is you

233
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 2: blocking the field goal? The Chiefs didn't get lucky, They

234
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 2: executed and stole a win that Denver could have had.

235
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:18,120
Speaker 2: But that's what great teams do. So I'll get to

236
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 2: the Bills piece of it in a moment. But here's

237
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 2: why this Chiefs team is so special. So throughout the year,

238
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 2: there have been a number of spots, number of games

239
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 2: demons where Mahomes has not played well early and then

240
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 2: Mahomes has made the plays late to win it. So Cincinnati.

241
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 2: He played terribly throughout long portions of that game. But

242
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 2: then fourth and six game on the line, hits the pass,

243
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 2: called back dude to penalty. Fourth and sixteen game on

244
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 2: the line, hits the pass, they interfere. They win the game.

245
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 2: The Niners game, he was not playing well. Hits the

246
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 2: down the sideline, then runs over Mustaf on the goal

247
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 2: line to win the game. There have been a number

248
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 2: of spots where Mahomes has kind of cleaned up his

249
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 2: own mess, so to speak. But there have been now

250
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 2: two games where Mahomes had a chance at the end

251
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 2: to ice the game and didn't do it. The Falcons

252
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 2: game got the ball back up five two first downs,

253
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 2: win the game. The Chiefs go three and out, Mahomes

254
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 2: misses a pass and all of a sudden, the Falcons

255
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 2: are driving to win. Third and one. The chief Stone

256
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 2: b genre Algier don't remember. Fourth and one, the chief

257
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 2: stoneum Chiefs win, defense bailed him out, and then Yester

258
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 2: or Sunday, Mahomes had an opportunity third and goal from

259
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 2: the two Travis wide open. He sails the pass that

260
00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 2: would have put the Chiefs up eight points, essentially the game.

261
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 2: Mahomes misses the throw and the special teams and Leo Chanal,

262
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 2: who's a regular player as well linebacker but plays special teams,

263
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:15,439
Speaker 2: saves the day. That is so much more reassuring for

264
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:18,679
Speaker 2: the Chiefs Super Bowl chances than if it was just

265
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:22,400
Speaker 2: one guy constantly doing it, if it was just always

266
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 2: Mahomes magic, then you feel like, man, it's a lot

267
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,280
Speaker 2: of pressure that Mahomes has to do it every single week.

268
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 2: That's not the story of this Chiefs team. So that

269
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 2: was a great win, a great win this Bills game.

270
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:40,120
Speaker 2: Let you mentioned the point spread. The Chiefs should never

271
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:45,160
Speaker 2: be underdogs when Patrick's healthy, and the results showing he's

272
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:50,120
Speaker 2: now eleven to one and one in his career against

273
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 2: the spread or I'm sorry, no, is it eleven to

274
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 2: one on one?

275
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:54,399
Speaker 3: No, he was.

276
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 2: He's ten and eleven and three straight up as an

277
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:03,399
Speaker 2: underdog and twelve one and one. Yeah, twelve one and

278
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,600
Speaker 2: one as a dog against the spread, and eleven and

279
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:11,400
Speaker 2: three straight up. He's won five straight. There's no scenario

280
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 2: where when Patrick is healthy the Chiefs should be underdogs,

281
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 2: so the line is insulting. I do think for the

282
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:28,240
Speaker 2: Bills this is almost the only meaningful game left on

283
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 2: their schedule. And here's why. If the Bills win Demansey,

284
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,600
Speaker 2: because the Bills already right have locked up the AFC East.

285
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,920
Speaker 2: If you bet one hundred dollars on the Bills to

286
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 2: win the AFC East right now, you win two dollars.

287
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 2: They are minus five thousand favorites, like, so that's done.

288
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:56,159
Speaker 2: So if you if they win this game, they get

289
00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:01,200
Speaker 2: one game back of Kansas City with the tiebreaker for

290
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:05,040
Speaker 2: the one seed. If they win this game, all they

291
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:09,200
Speaker 2: have to do is make up one game of ground

292
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:13,160
Speaker 2: on the Chiefs and they're the one seed. Flip side

293
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:17,680
Speaker 2: is if they lose this game, they are four games

294
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 2: back of Kansas City, So it goes you're either one

295
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 2: back or four back because of the tiebreaker principle. So

296
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:30,959
Speaker 2: if you're Buffalo and you win, then all of a sudden,

297
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,359
Speaker 2: the stakes of this season are the rest of the

298
00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 2: regular season are massive. But if you're Buffalo and you lose,

299
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:44,360
Speaker 2: then it's a really weird next six weeks. Like what

300
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:48,679
Speaker 2: are we playing for? We can't lose the division and

301
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:52,679
Speaker 2: we can't catch the one seed. So for all those reasons,

302
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 2: I think Buffalo is going to be a peak peak motivation.

303
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 2: The Chiefs also listen. They are already on one of

304
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:06,879
Speaker 2: the longest winning streaks in the history of the NFL.

305
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 2: The full list of winning streaks longer than the Chiefs,

306
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 2: thus the one they're on right now. Here's what it is.

307
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 2: John Madden's Raiders seventeen, Don Shula's Dolphins eighteen, peak Montana

308
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:34,440
Speaker 2: Niners eighteen, Patriots undefeated year eighteen, peak Lway Broncos back

309
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 2: to back championship eighteen, the Bears in the thirties eighteen,

310
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:43,919
Speaker 2: the Bears in the forties eighteen, Rogers Packers when they

311
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:47,280
Speaker 2: won the Super Bowl and then started thirteen to zero nineteen,

312
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:51,640
Speaker 2: and the Patriots back to back championships three to four

313
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 2: twenty one. That's the full list all of NFL history

314
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 2: of winning streaks longer than the one the Chiefs are

315
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 2: on right now. So they are due for a loss.

316
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:07,920
Speaker 2: I just don't think it's coming this week. I had

317
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:11,720
Speaker 2: said going into the year that the way I thought

318
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,440
Speaker 2: the chief season would go is they would lose Week

319
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:18,400
Speaker 2: four to the Chargers, Week eleven to Buffalo, and then

320
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:22,160
Speaker 2: a dumb one sometime after that and finished fourteen and three.

321
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:30,959
Speaker 2: I think the juice they got from that stolen victory yesterday.

322
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 2: Now they are. While they won't talk about it, there

323
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 2: has to be a bit of could we go undefeated

324
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 2: bouncing around in their head. And if they're not going

325
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 2: to I don't think it's Buffalo that ends it. And

326
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:55,639
Speaker 2: if it's not Buffalo, here's what they have demands. After

327
00:21:55,680 --> 00:22:02,119
Speaker 2: the Bills, Panthers, Raiders. Okay, so now you're twelve and

328
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:08,159
Speaker 2: zero after that, home for the Chargers at the Browns,

329
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,919
Speaker 2: home for the Texans at the Steelers at the Broncos.

330
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:19,840
Speaker 2: Now I'm gonna say something else that is controversial, not controversial,

331
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 2: but maybe unpopular. I don't want them to go for undefeated.

332
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 2: They play the Steelers on Christmas Day on a Wednesday,

333
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 2: after playing the previous game against the Texans on a Saturday.

334
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,680
Speaker 2: One of those games. If they're fourteen to oh going

335
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,640
Speaker 2: into the Texans game, one of those games, I want

336
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 2: them to sit there. Guys, that is a recipe for

337
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 2: massive injury. Playing on a short week Christmas Day against

338
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:57,399
Speaker 2: the Steelers a Wednesday one o'clock start against Pittsburgh is

339
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:01,159
Speaker 2: just an absurdity. It's kind of redem The NFL is

340
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 2: having the defending champs going for a three peat.

341
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 3: Do it?

342
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:09,000
Speaker 2: The first ever Windnesday game in NFL history. But so

343
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,360
Speaker 2: I would be fine with them punting on the undefeated season.

344
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 2: And there is a there is a fun wrinkle to

345
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 2: the end of the chief schedule, which is this, Let's

346
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,360
Speaker 2: say they're fifteen to oh going into that Steeler game.

347
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 2: If they were to punt on the Steeler game and

348
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 2: have that be the reason the Steelers not Baltimore win

349
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:36,239
Speaker 2: the division and then punt on the Bronco game and

350
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:39,600
Speaker 2: have that be the reason the Broncos not the Bengals

351
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 2: make the playoffs. That'd be pretty sick if the Chiefs

352
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:47,399
Speaker 2: can get rest while making the path to the Super

353
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 2: Bowl easier in the AFC. Just something to think about. So,

354
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:55,439
Speaker 2: but I think they're gonna beat Buffalo this week, and

355
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 2: I think they're gonna get to I think they're gonna

356
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 2: be twelve to oh hosting the Chargers on Sunday Night Football,

357
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,440
Speaker 2: and that could be a tough spot. Hosting the Chargers

358
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:08,360
Speaker 2: at twelve and zero and having locked up the one

359
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 2: seed at that point, that could be a tough spot.

360
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 2: That's the next one I'm circling. But yeah, I'll be

361
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 2: taking the Chiefs plus the points on my card this week.

362
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:20,479
Speaker 2: You're damn straight about that. It was alright, let's move on.

363
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 3: You you were saying that the best bet is to lie.

364
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 3: I have bet the Chiefs w when they're down or whatever,

365
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,920
Speaker 3: and I went to I went to fandue when I

366
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,959
Speaker 3: checked when they were down, and it was like they

367
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,879
Speaker 3: were like minus two ten and they were down four

368
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,680
Speaker 3: down fours, yeah, seven, whatever it may have been.

369
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:44,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. Yeah, yeah, I mean four hundred. They

370
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 2: started the game minus four hundred. You get the All right,

371
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:49,640
Speaker 2: let's go on to the Texans.

372
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 3: Uh so, yeah, CJ stout of the Texans. They looked

373
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 3: like they had rallied there and turned a new leaf,

374
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,399
Speaker 3: and they got shut out in the second quarter of

375
00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 3: the second half and got overcame by Jerry Golf Alliance.

376
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:03,919
Speaker 3: Everybody loved Houston this year, but they obviously have not

377
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 3: met expectations. Do you think everybody was too quick to

378
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,399
Speaker 3: throw Stroud into that great category?

379
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 2: Listen, I think Stroud's very, very good. But you know,

380
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:19,200
Speaker 2: coming into the year, I said, Packers Texans, at least

381
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 2: one of the two is going I said.

382
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 3: The said, I said the Packers weren't going to disappoint.

383
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 3: You said the Texans weren't disappoint.

384
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 2: You're you're right, they might both we'll see like you

385
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 2: know what I mean, like the and both quarterbacks have

386
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 2: not looked as good as they did last year. You know,

387
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:44,359
Speaker 2: Jordan's been banged up, and Jordan's been very boom busts

388
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,640
Speaker 2: so far. A lot of great plays, a ton of touchdowns,

389
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 2: a ton of interceptions. Cj who threw no interceptions last year,

390
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,399
Speaker 2: is kind of his calling card, has been a little

391
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 2: more mistake prone. His receivers have been banged up, and

392
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 2: for the Texans it they don't really have. Listen. Their

393
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 2: win against Buffalo is a great win, don't get me

394
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 2: wrong at all. But if you remember that was the

395
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:15,879
Speaker 2: game Buffalo had the ball on their own goal line

396
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 2: and threw it instead of running it, and then they

397
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 2: ended up punting people killed McDermott for it, and the

398
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 2: Texans get a field goal at the end. That's an

399
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 2: excellent win. There are other wins. Two point win against

400
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,440
Speaker 2: the Colts in week one, six point win against the

401
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,720
Speaker 2: Bears in week two, four point win against Jacksonville in

402
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 2: week four, they blew out the Patriots, and they sneaked

403
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 2: one away against the Colts a few weeks ago. In

404
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 2: the meantime, they lost to the Packers, lost to the Jets,

405
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,399
Speaker 2: which is an abysmal loss, lost to the Lions in

406
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 2: a game golf through five picks, got blown out by

407
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:54,640
Speaker 2: the Vikings. Now what the Texans have going for him

408
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 2: is they have a lot of time to get healthy,

409
00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 2: get Nicocollins back, because the offense has look the same,

410
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 2: and before the playoffs start, we are gonna find out

411
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 2: who the Texans really are from a playoff standpoint. In December.

412
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 2: Mid December, they have a stretch of Dolphins, Chiefs Ravens

413
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 2: and they're on the same schedule of the Chiefs of

414
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 2: they play Sunday, Saturday, Wednesday, so the Ravens do as well. Again,

415
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,919
Speaker 2: I don't love how the NFL set this up, but

416
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 2: it is what it is. In the meantime, get right

417
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,359
Speaker 2: game for the Texans this week against the Cowboys, then

418
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,320
Speaker 2: home for the Titans, then out at the Jags. So

419
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:42,480
Speaker 2: all that is. You know, they should stabilize, but right

420
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:47,119
Speaker 2: now they don't look like they have a They have

421
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 2: a well enough rounded offense, particularly when mixing's not cooking,

422
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:57,200
Speaker 2: to be a real playoff threat. The defense has been

423
00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 2: a little better than I expected particularly getting after the quarterback.

424
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,720
Speaker 2: The offense has not quite been there. I still think

425
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:09,160
Speaker 2: Stroud is excellent, but people putting them in the Super

426
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,159
Speaker 2: Bowl and him as the league MVP probably need to

427
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 2: pump their brakes just a bit, go ahead, just a bit.

428
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,200
Speaker 3: Do you think that Detroit has like a similar end

429
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 3: of game magic like the Chiefs, They just seem to

430
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 3: pull out the win.

431
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 2: Well, listen, I think that they fully believe, and I

432
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:29,159
Speaker 2: think they love their head coach, and I think that

433
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,679
Speaker 2: they are in a spot right now where at the

434
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 2: end of games you've got to feel like, if it's close,

435
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,719
Speaker 2: they're going to come through. So I think all of

436
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:42,800
Speaker 2: that works really well for them. Dak is done for

437
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:44,840
Speaker 2: the year. We'll discuss that on the other side.

438
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:45,360

00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:34,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, So DAK season might be over with his injured hamstring.

464
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 3: Now the Coboys can focus on more important things like

465
00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:42,360
Speaker 3: stadium upholstery. Micah Parsons didn't exactly stand up for his

466
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 3: coach when question about him give us a three step

467
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:46,680
Speaker 3: plan to fix Dallas.

468
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, listen, So Jerry just announced on the radio that

469
00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 2: Dax season is over one hundred percent done. He's having

470
00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 2: surgery on the injured hamstring. So here's the deal. And

471
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 2: we talk a ton about the Cowboys on TV, and

472
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 2: I don't apologize for that. It's smart business. But without Dak,

473
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:15,920
Speaker 2: they're not that interesting. So the we're not gonna spend

474
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:16,880
Speaker 2: a ton of time on it.

475
00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 3: Here.

476
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 2: There are a lot of things they should have done differently,

477
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 2: but they didn't. So now that they're in the bed,

478
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:32,200
Speaker 2: they're in. The number one thing they could do is

479
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:37,720
Speaker 2: bring in a real football person. Unfortunately, Jerry would have

480
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 2: to fire himself and he's not going to do it.

481
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 2: And in the past I have thought some of the

482
00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 2: Jerry Jones blame was overwrought. I do not think that

483
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 2: is the case this year. I think nearly every single

484
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:56,720
Speaker 2: major decision football wise, the Cowboys made over the last

485
00:31:56,840 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 2: nine months was the wrong decision From bringing back McCarthy,

486
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:04,800
Speaker 2: to slow playing CDs deal, to not getting Micah done,

487
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:08,720
Speaker 2: to waiting on Dak and then folding at the very

488
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 2: end and re signing Dak, sitting out free agency, telegraphing

489
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 2: your draft plans, not getting involved in the running back market,

490
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,280
Speaker 2: which by the way, I advocated for, but I was

491
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 2: wrong on letting your team wilter away. All of those

492
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:26,760
Speaker 2: are football moves. Jerry's over. It's not a single one

493
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 2: that worked out. And so there are a lot of

494
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 2: things they could do, but I simply know they won't.

495
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:41,080
Speaker 2: So first one would be bring in a real football person.

496
00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 2: Second one would be and this is a take nobody

497
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 2: has about Micah's podcast, and I want to know how

498
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 2: you feel about it. Demands. I have no problem with

499
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:58,479
Speaker 2: Micah doing the podcast, but you know the old Laura

500
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 2: Ingram nonsense, stick to sports, shut up and dribble all

501
00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:08,040
Speaker 2: that BS. I actually want Micah to do the opposite.

502
00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 2: Micah keep the podcast. One rule. You can talk about

503
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 2: anything you want except for football. You want to talk basketball,

504
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 2: you want to talk politics, you want to talk dating,

505
00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 2: you want to talk cooking, you want to talk anything

506
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:30,440
Speaker 2: you want, just no football. Keep the pod. Expand your horizons.

507
00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:33,240
Speaker 2: I don't think it's like taking away from your training time.

508
00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 2: I do think every time you do a quarterback ranking

509
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 2: it's a pain in the ass for the team. It's

510
00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:43,280
Speaker 2: like Jesus Man, did Micah just do ten quarterbacks and

511
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:47,000
Speaker 2: not list Dak well christ now? And then he does

512
00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 2: a new quarterback ranking includes Dak but puts him fifth

513
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 2: of like most clutch quarterbacks. That's even worse than leaving

514
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 2: him out. Then he's talking about Mike McCarthy like, Micah,

515
00:33:58,320 --> 00:33:59,800
Speaker 2: do the pod no.

516
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:04,400
Speaker 3: Full Yeah, I've hilarious.

517
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 2: And then like he he torches McCarthy says it's unintentional,

518
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,319
Speaker 2: then tweets out the real story will be on the

519
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:16,960
Speaker 2: edge with Micah Parsons like buddy like, it's just just

520
00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:23,879
Speaker 2: bad news. So that would be my advice there. I

521
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:29,959
Speaker 2: know there is some thought the Cowboys should trade Micah,

522
00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:32,799
Speaker 2: not because he's not awesome, but it's because it's the

523
00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 2: only way to kickstart or rebuild. You just you can't

524
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:41,880
Speaker 2: have the highest paid quarterback in the league, one of

525
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:44,960
Speaker 2: the highest paid wide receivers in the league and be rebuilding.

526
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:50,040
Speaker 2: You just can't. Once you paid Dak, you're not rebuilding.

527
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,000
Speaker 2: Trading away the best player on your team who's twenty

528
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:56,360
Speaker 2: four years old does not make you better. So you

529
00:34:56,480 --> 00:35:00,960
Speaker 2: have to build around Micah, Dak and CD. It's what

530
00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:07,440
Speaker 2: you have to do. And as far as coaches, realistic coaches,

531
00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:11,760
Speaker 2: I'd bring in Mike Vrabel, I'd bring in Mike Rabel,

532
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:17,799
Speaker 2: a real football, no bs, no nonsense person. That's what

533
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:23,080
Speaker 2: I would do. McCarthy's out, Vrabel's in Dax's rehabs, you

534
00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:28,880
Speaker 2: re signed Micah, and you hope to hit on a

535
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:33,000
Speaker 2: draft and spend some damn money in free agency. Those

536
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,000
Speaker 2: are the things that I would do. All right, let's

537
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:35,319
Speaker 2: move on.

538
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:39,080
Speaker 3: So, yeah, last week you went to Vegas to play

539
00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 3: poker with the Gronk Uh mind telling chat how it

540
00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:43,280
Speaker 3: went and myself because I don't.

541
00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:47,440
Speaker 2: Know either, Well, so I'm not going. I can't reveal

542
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 2: the results because it's gonna it's gonna be turned into

543
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:56,279
Speaker 2: a six episode YouTube show. Like you knows there's gonna be,

544
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:58,359
Speaker 2: so I don't want to spoil it. And that's coming

545
00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:02,360
Speaker 2: out in a few months. I will say it was

546
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:07,160
Speaker 2: me Gronk, Phil Locke, Antonios Fondiari, Phil Helm, youth Poker.

547
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:11,520
Speaker 2: People know who those last three names are. Uh, for

548
00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 2: twelve hours playing cards. It was an unbelievable time. Gronk

549
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:21,480
Speaker 2: is so much fun and such a good dude, and

550
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:24,279
Speaker 2: he and I had spent no real time together. I

551
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:29,120
Speaker 2: will tell one kind of funny anecdote of it. So

552
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:32,240
Speaker 2: Phil Locke, who is one of my favorite poker players

553
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,880
Speaker 2: ever in a legend used to be called the Unibomber,

554
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 2: wore the hoodie like over his eyes, sunglasses, whole thing.

555
00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 2: He was one of the alternates, so he was only

556
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:45,520
Speaker 2: gonna play if someone busted out, and someone did bust out,

557
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 2: so he was gonna come join us. And I was like,

558
00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:56,880
Speaker 2: you know, I don't get like nervous about meeting athletes.

559
00:36:56,920 --> 00:36:59,319
Speaker 2: I was not nervous about meeting Gronk at all, Like

560
00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:01,759
Speaker 2: I'm not that part of what I do. But I

561
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 2: do get nervous about meeting these pro poker players who

562
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,920
Speaker 2: I've always looked up to and enjoyed watching and all

563
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,920
Speaker 2: this stuff. So I was nervous about meeting Antonio's fondiari

564
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,400
Speaker 2: who might be my favorite player ever. But by the

565
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:15,759
Speaker 2: end of the night, Man again, I don't want to

566
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 2: spoil anything, but at one point it might look like

567
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:21,720
Speaker 2: I might need more money and Antonio just says across

568
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 2: the table, He's like, He's like, Nick, you know, if

569
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:27,080
Speaker 2: you need like fifty thousand, I'd just toss it to you.

570
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,759
Speaker 2: We had met ten hours ago. He was just gonna

571
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:33,880
Speaker 2: loan me fifty grand on reputation like the so like

572
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,520
Speaker 2: he and I are like text buddies now. It's one

573
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,200
Speaker 2: of the coolest things ever, Antonio. So he was meeting

574
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,600
Speaker 2: Antonio is great. I've known Phil Helmut for a while.

575
00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:45,880
Speaker 2: But when Phil Lock's coming over, I'm like, man, I

576
00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:50,200
Speaker 2: was like, there's a chance Phil Lock knows me. Like,

577
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 2: if you're a big sports fan, there's always a chance

578
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:54,720
Speaker 2: you know me. I was like, it'd be really cool

579
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:58,520
Speaker 2: if Phil Locke knew me. So Phil Lock comes over

580
00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:03,080
Speaker 2: to the table, seies Antonio, gives him a hug, Seese

581
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 2: Helm gives him a hug, sees Rob Gronkowski and says, Hi,

582
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:15,240
Speaker 2: I'm Phil what's your name? And I'm like, oh, I'm

583
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:19,799
Speaker 2: drawing stone dead on Phil Locke knowing me. If he

584
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 2: didn't recognize Rob Gronkowski, Uh Like, I was like, so

585
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:30,399
Speaker 2: I'm at about zero percent for him knowing me or

586
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 2: thinking what I do is cool or any of that stuff.

587
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:38,480
Speaker 2: And also how like disconnected from sports you have to

588
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:43,240
Speaker 2: be to not recognize Grunk? Like who are the Who's

589
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:50,160
Speaker 2: the full list demons of active NFL players more famous

590
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:55,160
Speaker 2: than Grunk? Full list? I think it's three people long.

591
00:38:56,719 --> 00:39:00,560
Speaker 2: I think there are three active NFL players more famous

592
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:03,960
Speaker 2: than Gronk. Do you do you have a guess?

593
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:07,880
Speaker 3: Very smallest? I mean, Patrick Mahomes gotta be one. What

594
00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 3: I mean, I imagine what the whole Taylor Swift thing. You're

595
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:13,839
Speaker 3: probably Travis Kelcey is in there as well.

596
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:17,759
Speaker 2: Travis kelce to Travis Kelcey, this is a quote from

597
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 2: Wilds before you Guess the third, But it's true. This

598
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:27,400
Speaker 2: is one of my favorite wild isms. Wildest said Taylor.

599
00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:36,760
Speaker 2: He said, Taylor Swift is so famous that her boyfriend's

600
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:44,240
Speaker 2: brother's wife is now famous. And I'm like, oh, that's true.

601
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:52,040
Speaker 2: I'm like, uh, that's accurate. Like Kylie Kelsey is a celebrity,

602
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:56,759
Speaker 2: Jason and again Jason Kelsey was already I understand it,

603
00:39:56,760 --> 00:40:03,440
Speaker 2: but like the right lineman. But now, yeah, yeah, Taylor

604
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:09,600
Speaker 2: Swift is so famous that her boyfriend's brother's wife is

605
00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:14,200
Speaker 2: a celebrity now. But yeah, Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelcey, and

606
00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:17,799
Speaker 2: I think there's only I don't think Lamar is more

607
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:22,080
Speaker 2: famous than Gronk, meaning like you know what I mean,

608
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:27,080
Speaker 2: like if you showed if you showed my sister just

609
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 2: a headshot of Lamar, I don't think she knows who

610
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,680
Speaker 2: it is. But I but Gronk because he's in all

611
00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:37,239
Speaker 2: the commercials, and you know what I mean, Like, I

612
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:39,400
Speaker 2: think she knows who Gronk is. Who do you have

613
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:40,279
Speaker 2: a guess on the third?

614
00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:49,080
Speaker 3: Maybe? Maybe? Oh? Aaron Rodgers? Aaron Aaron Rodgers.

615
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:52,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, who were you about to guess when you

616
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:52,880
Speaker 2: were saying.

617
00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:55,040
Speaker 3: What I was gonna say? Dak just because he plays

618
00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:56,759
Speaker 3: for the Cowboys and that's America's team.

619
00:40:56,880 --> 00:40:59,759
Speaker 2: No, but he's not more famous than Gronk. No, I

620
00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 2: think that. I think that if we are ranking football

621
00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 2: players by fame, I think this is active or retired.

622
00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:17,959
Speaker 2: I think the list is Tom Brady won, Patrick Mahomes two,

623
00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:24,600
Speaker 2: Travis Kelsey three, Aaron Rodgers for Rob Gronkowski.

624
00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:28,040
Speaker 3: Five Odell We did forget all. He's not active. He's

625
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,719
Speaker 3: not an active player active.

626
00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 2: Odell played last night, yeah, but I mean barely. He

627
00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:41,719
Speaker 2: did the celebration with Tyreek. But the Odell is So

628
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:46,600
Speaker 2: that's what's weird, Like, is Odell more famous than Joe Burrow?

629
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:50,040
Speaker 2: The answer that question is yes, yeah, he just is

630
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:51,359
Speaker 2: like you know and so like.

631
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:55,839
Speaker 3: Famous because is obviously more prominent in the NFL right now.

632
00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,560
Speaker 2: Correct, But it's the same type of thing like we

633
00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 2: I was discussing this with Wilds. Actually, are the three

634
00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:09,920
Speaker 2: most famous people associated with are three of the four

635
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:16,080
Speaker 2: most famous people associated with baseball? The retired guys on

636
00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:21,160
Speaker 2: the Fox postgame show, A Rod, Jeter, and Big Poppy.

637
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:28,840
Speaker 2: Are those three guys currently more famous than any active

638
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 2: baseball player other than Otani? And Otani's a weird one

639
00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:36,440
Speaker 2: because again, I think Otani is somewhat as far as

640
00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:40,560
Speaker 2: his face anonymous domestically, but he's one of the biggest

641
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:45,400
Speaker 2: celebrities in all of Asia. But like again, Otani and

642
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:49,600
Speaker 2: Judge are the only two guys even in the room

643
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:53,960
Speaker 2: as far as like compared to Jeter, A Rod, Big

644
00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:58,160
Speaker 2: Poppy like so yeah and the and so I don't

645
00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:01,000
Speaker 2: even so why do we talking this? Oh A grunt?

646
00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:06,840
Speaker 2: The so yeah? The thanks of Poker Stars. It was unbelievable.

647
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:09,799
Speaker 2: And when I when the episodes come out on their

648
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:14,160
Speaker 2: YouTube page, I'll obviously push them out and show you guys,

668
00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:34,600
Speaker 2: that was I lot. It was a lot, Yeah, a

669
00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:44,879
Speaker 2: lot going on. All right, let's the hold on mirror, Oh,

670
00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:47,839
Speaker 2: myriad corpse, says Nick didn't say if the guy knew him, well,

671
00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:49,759
Speaker 2: he didn't know Gronks, so no, he didn't know me.

672
00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:53,040
Speaker 2: The point that was myriad corpse. There were some context

673
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:56,040
Speaker 2: clues there that if the guy who's not a big

674
00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:59,360
Speaker 2: enough sportsman know who Rob Gronkowski is, he's not watching

675
00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:01,200
Speaker 2: First Things First? Or what's right with Nick?

676
00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:01,480
Speaker 3: Right?

677
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:03,480
Speaker 2: All right, let's play a quick game of right ends.

678
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:07,480
Speaker 3: Thank you, Maria corp right ends. The Cardinals are favored

679
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:09,920
Speaker 3: to win the NFC West, but the forty nine ers

680
00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:12,680
Speaker 3: have CMC back, and you can't count up in Veay

681
00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:15,799
Speaker 3: and Stafford. Despite the loss last night. The winner of

682
00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:19,680
Speaker 3: the NFC West will be hold on.

683
00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:24,920
Speaker 2: I'm shocked by the nine by the Cardinals being favored,

684
00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:29,720
Speaker 2: and it's because they're not. The Niners are the Vegas favorites.

685
00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:32,360
Speaker 2: Niners are plus one oh five Cardinals or plus one forty.

686
00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:36,080
Speaker 2: Now the Cardinals are have the better record, but the

687
00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:40,680
Speaker 2: right now the Niners are the slight favorite over Arizona.

688
00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:47,120
Speaker 2: I gotta say the Cardinals deserve some respect at this point.

689
00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:54,040
Speaker 2: Like the Cardinals don't have a bad loss. Now they

690
00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:58,280
Speaker 2: got blown out by the Commanders, but the Cardinals loss

691
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:02,799
Speaker 2: is demonse Week one against Buffalo came down to the

692
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:07,320
Speaker 2: final drive week three, a touchdown loss to the Lions.

693
00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:12,000
Speaker 2: Week four, got blown out by the Commanders. Oh, and

694
00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:14,520
Speaker 2: they got blown out by the Packers. So they've gotten

695
00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:18,640
Speaker 2: blown out. But they've lost to Bill's Lions, Commander's Packers,

696
00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:22,080
Speaker 2: so you know what I mean, they haven't lost. They've

697
00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:26,640
Speaker 2: handled their business against bad teams. They stole one against

698
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,800
Speaker 2: San Francisco, they blew out the Rams on their own.

699
00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:35,439
Speaker 2: So if they're a team right now that is not

700
00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:40,640
Speaker 2: going to lose to the bad teams. Here's their schedule

701
00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:45,719
Speaker 2: at Seattle, at the Vikings, home for the Seahawks, home

702
00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:49,759
Speaker 2: for the Patriots, at the Panthers, at the Rams, home

703
00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:55,920
Speaker 2: for the Niners. So that sweet, no no no, I

704
00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:56,800
Speaker 2: wasn't saying it's.

705
00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:00,239
Speaker 3: No no, no. Oh.

706
00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:02,359
Speaker 2: I wasn't saying it was good. I was just trying to,

707
00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:05,200
Speaker 2: kind of in real time in my head, say, if

708
00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:07,200
Speaker 2: we think they lose to the good teams and beat

709
00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:11,160
Speaker 2: the bad teams, right, so let's say that means let's

710
00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:15,000
Speaker 2: see that that means they split with the Seahawks. That

711
00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:19,560
Speaker 2: seems fair, and that they split at the Vikings at

712
00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 2: the Rams, that seems fair. So that'd be two wins.

713
00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:28,560
Speaker 2: And they beat the Patriots and Panthers, that's another two wins.

714
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:34,560
Speaker 2: That puts them at ten going into Week eighteen home

715
00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:38,560
Speaker 2: against the Niners. I think I might have just stumbled

716
00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:43,879
Speaker 2: on Sunday Night football Week eighteen. That might be the

717
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:47,480
Speaker 2: final game of the NFL season. Mark this down, social

718
00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:49,719
Speaker 2: media team, please a little see if we can get

719
00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:54,480
Speaker 2: a nice little classic two eventually. Correct, I'm putting my

720
00:47:54,719 --> 00:48:01,319
Speaker 2: flag in the sand. Week eighteen, Sunday Night Football, Cardinals

721
00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:06,960
Speaker 2: Niners with the NFC West Division on the line, I

722
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:10,520
Speaker 2: think that's the game we're gonna get. So the if

723
00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:14,560
Speaker 2: we're if I'm right that the Cardinals, yeah, we'll be

724
00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:18,160
Speaker 2: at ten and six going into that game the Niners.

725
00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:20,040
Speaker 2: Let me look at the Niners schedule the rest of

726
00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:23,160
Speaker 2: the way. Play a little again, mad Dog Mike and

727
00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:26,200
Speaker 2: the mad Dog style win loss, win loss. Here's what

728
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:30,800
Speaker 2: they have home for Seattle at the Packers, at the Bills,

729
00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:34,879
Speaker 2: home for the Bears, home for the Rams, at the Dolphins,

730
00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:39,759
Speaker 2: home for the Lions, and then at the Cardinals. So

731
00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:48,200
Speaker 2: if we think that Packers at Packers at Bills, yeah,

732
00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:50,080
Speaker 2: I mean I feel like there's at least two.

733
00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:51,400
Speaker 3: Losses, the games.

734
00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:57,480
Speaker 2: Really losable games home for the Lions, at the Bills,

735
00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:02,600
Speaker 2: at the Packers. Yeah, I mean, it's totally reasonable that

736
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:08,319
Speaker 2: the Cardinals could be leading the NFC West the rest

737
00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:10,959
Speaker 2: of the way. In fact, you know what, I'm gonna

738
00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:13,720
Speaker 2: go ahead and say, the Cardinals are gonna win the division.

739
00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:15,479
Speaker 2: Say it again.

740
00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:17,680
Speaker 3: They made it over that home. We were just talking

741
00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:24,400
Speaker 3: about how they had one had one back to back games.

742
00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:25,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, three years and now they've won.

743
00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:28,520
Speaker 3: By the way as well.

744
00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:33,759
Speaker 2: And I know Kyler is still cooking. And here's the

745
00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:36,080
Speaker 2: other thing that here's the other thing the Cardinals have

746
00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:39,920
Speaker 2: going for him two and ohero in the division with

747
00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:44,080
Speaker 2: the Niners already being one and two. So the Cardinals

748
00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:46,480
Speaker 2: put they beat the Niners head up. Now, the Niners

749
00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:48,759
Speaker 2: can get back on them on that, but they could

750
00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:52,399
Speaker 2: be in a position where they hold tie breakers over

751
00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:55,839
Speaker 2: the Niners, which is huge. Man, that Rams loss. If

752
00:49:55,840 --> 00:49:57,879
Speaker 2: the Rams had won last night, you'd feel like they

753
00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:02,120
Speaker 2: are five and four, healthy and right there to win

754
00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:05,719
Speaker 2: the division. All right, next, uh, so you have divorced her?

755
00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:08,120
Speaker 3: Did you want to talk about We're gonna hit on

756
00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:11,279
Speaker 3: the deebo Samuel the kick? It was that where you

757
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:13,640
Speaker 3: or is it just done?

758
00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:17,319
Speaker 2: Yes, no, we can talk about the Deebo Samuel thing.

759
00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:26,680
Speaker 2: It's a punk move by Deebo flatly. And here's why.

760
00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:36,000
Speaker 2: Any time you put your hands on someone who's not

761
00:50:36,239 --> 00:50:39,960
Speaker 2: allowed to put their hands back on you, it's a

762
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:44,719
Speaker 2: punk move. Those are the rules, and people like, oh,

763
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:48,479
Speaker 2: it's pro sports. There's arguments, there's whatever. It's why I've

764
00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:54,320
Speaker 2: always had a visceral negative reaction to the college coach

765
00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:58,840
Speaker 2: who pushes or grabs the face mask of a player

766
00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:04,520
Speaker 2: because the player is not allowed to respond. If Deebo

767
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:10,759
Speaker 2: had done that to George Kittle, I'd be fine with

768
00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:15,120
Speaker 2: it because Kittle can be like, all right, let's go.

769
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:19,080
Speaker 2: And it's not just about the fact that Diebo's a

770
00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:21,680
Speaker 2: favorite in the fight. That's not even what I'm talking about.

771
00:51:22,120 --> 00:51:26,719
Speaker 2: I'm saying the second year kicker and the long snapper

772
00:51:27,120 --> 00:51:32,080
Speaker 2: are not allowed to hit Deebo Samuel in the hierarchy

773
00:51:32,239 --> 00:51:36,759
Speaker 2: of the It would be again bad example here. But

774
00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:40,480
Speaker 2: I almost feel like it's the difference between at work

775
00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:43,960
Speaker 2: if I and I wouldn't do this, but if I

776
00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:48,480
Speaker 2: shoved wilds versus if I shoved one of the interns,

777
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:53,280
Speaker 2: Like if I shove wilds. Wilds can shove me back.

778
00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:56,960
Speaker 2: We are peers. There is not a power dynamic that

779
00:51:57,120 --> 00:52:01,320
Speaker 2: is missing there. But if I shove it intern, the

780
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:04,239
Speaker 2: guy's like probably like what am I supposed to do here? Like?

781
00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:07,480
Speaker 2: And so that I that's what I didn't like about it.

782
00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:10,440
Speaker 2: And not only do I think it did, it's I

783
00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:13,680
Speaker 2: know he made his next kick to me. That's not related.

784
00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:16,960
Speaker 2: It puts more pressure on the kid. It's not helpful.

785
00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:19,799
Speaker 2: I don't like any of it. I just don't like

786
00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:22,520
Speaker 2: the it's it's.

787
00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:25,759
Speaker 3: You can't do that guy jo either. You can't do

788
00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:27,600
Speaker 3: that guy's job. You can't kick the ball in the

789
00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:31,400
Speaker 3: field goal like you go out there and do it, like,

790
00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:32,920
Speaker 3: come on, dude.

791
00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:36,799
Speaker 2: Oh that's a good that's a good point too, which is, yeah,

792
00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:39,560
Speaker 2: you can't do that guy's job, and there's nobody else

793
00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:42,239
Speaker 2: there to do it. If you go down, at least

794
00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:45,560
Speaker 2: they have backups. There's nobody else to do his job.

795
00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:47,920
Speaker 2: I didn't even think about that, but I was just

796
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:50,680
Speaker 2: more along the lines of like, I just don't like

797
00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:57,400
Speaker 2: the uneven power dynamics of like, I am not someone

798
00:52:57,440 --> 00:53:02,239
Speaker 2: that thinks, oh there's no setting, there's no instance where

799
00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:06,360
Speaker 2: putting your hands on someone is acceptable. I don't. I

800
00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:10,080
Speaker 2: think that is too black and white actually, and I

801
00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:13,480
Speaker 2: hate when people are like, well, imagine if that happened

802
00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:18,560
Speaker 2: at your workplace, bro, It's not your workplace. Different workplaces

803
00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:23,520
Speaker 2: have different dynamics, and like the you know, I grew

804
00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:27,040
Speaker 2: up in firehouses, that is a different dynamic than if

805
00:53:27,080 --> 00:53:29,840
Speaker 2: you grow up in an accounting firm. Like, there's just

806
00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:37,080
Speaker 2: different you know, acceptable norms for different environments. Football is

807
00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:41,319
Speaker 2: one of them, where, eh, settling things with a little

808
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:45,480
Speaker 2: bit of physical violence between co workers might actually be okay,

809
00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:50,200
Speaker 2: but not when one guy can't hit the other one

810
00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:52,319
Speaker 2: back that that's just.

811
00:53:52,280 --> 00:53:55,279
Speaker 3: What Bob jumps. Like, so if he did something.

812
00:53:56,640 --> 00:54:01,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, so like it was people people, you know, we're like, Nick,

813
00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:03,680
Speaker 2: you didn't get this worked up with Travis and Andy.

814
00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:07,480
Speaker 2: The thing I didn't love about Travis and Andy was

815
00:54:07,560 --> 00:54:12,120
Speaker 2: the age dynamic. Was that Andy's forty years or thirty

816
00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:15,279
Speaker 2: years older than Travis, and you know, that felt like

817
00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:18,200
Speaker 2: he could have heard him. But if you remember Andy,

818
00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:22,120
Speaker 2: Andy is still a fiery son of a gun. And

819
00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:25,560
Speaker 2: when he was asked about it, about Travis knocking him backwards,

820
00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:28,279
Speaker 2: Andy was like, well, he caught me off guard. And

821
00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:31,359
Speaker 2: Andy's a huge dude, and Andy was gonna make it,

822
00:54:31,440 --> 00:54:35,080
Speaker 2: make it clear if need be. I think I could

823
00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:37,399
Speaker 2: take that guy for as long, at least as long

824
00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:40,360
Speaker 2: as we need it until someone else came. I would

825
00:54:40,360 --> 00:54:43,880
Speaker 2: feel if Travis had done what he did to Andy

826
00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:49,480
Speaker 2: to the equipment manager, I think that would be so

827
00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:54,520
Speaker 2: so different. But like, you know, Andy's allowed to hit

828
00:54:54,600 --> 00:55:00,440
Speaker 2: Travis back like and honestly Travis can't then respond had

829
00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:03,399
Speaker 2: bumped Andy and Andy had slugged him, Travis just has

830
00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:07,760
Speaker 2: to take it like he certainly can't punch that old

831
00:55:07,880 --> 00:55:12,480
Speaker 2: head coach back. And so I just the again, I'm

832
00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:15,640
Speaker 2: belaboring the same point, but that's just what bothered me

833
00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:21,080
Speaker 2: about it. Like I would have no problem with Mahomes

834
00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:25,960
Speaker 2: getting into a true screaming match with Chris Jones or

835
00:55:25,960 --> 00:55:31,520
Speaker 2: Travis Kelcey. It would really bother me if Mahomes got

836
00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:35,280
Speaker 2: like dressed down screaming match for like a practice squad receiver,

837
00:55:36,080 --> 00:55:39,120
Speaker 2: because it's like, well, that guy know, even if you're wrong,

838
00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:42,839
Speaker 2: you're right. So that that's that's my short takeaway of it,

839
00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:43,520
Speaker 2: all right.

840
00:55:43,480 --> 00:55:47,839
Speaker 3: Next he pops chill oudebo, you have divorced your your

841
00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:50,640
Speaker 3: bear's super Bowl take and not a moment too soon.

842
00:55:51,160 --> 00:55:54,359
Speaker 3: The Bears fired their offensive coordinator and he Reflus had

843
00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:56,880
Speaker 3: to confirm Calebi remain the starter after a loss to

844
00:55:56,920 --> 00:56:00,480
Speaker 3: the Patriots because reportedly players have been asked sking him

845
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:04,120
Speaker 3: to be bench for Tyson's badget the Bears.

846
00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:08,880
Speaker 2: Problem with respect with respect to Wadal and Sylvie the

847
00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:12,800
Speaker 2: radio show in Chicago. I don't buy that. I don't

848
00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:16,239
Speaker 2: buy that there's multiple players on the Bears who want

849
00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:18,719
Speaker 2: Tyson Badging as the starter. I don't buy that.

850
00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:21,359
Speaker 3: Do think there's some beef in in Chicago. I don't

851
00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:23,400
Speaker 3: know what it is, but I do think there's something brewin.

852
00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:23,799
Speaker 3: It might not.

853
00:56:24,080 --> 00:56:27,200
Speaker 2: I think there's a ton of problems. Yeah, oh, I

854
00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:29,279
Speaker 2: think there's a ton of problems, and I think guys

855
00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:31,680
Speaker 2: are probably some guys are unhappy with how Caleb has played,

856
00:56:31,719 --> 00:56:34,799
Speaker 2: and he hasn't played well last few weeks. There's no

857
00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:40,800
Speaker 2: denying that. But Tyson Bade Badgint is barely an NFL player,

858
00:56:40,840 --> 00:56:44,480
Speaker 2: Like that's not a thing. The short version is the

859
00:56:44,480 --> 00:56:47,240
Speaker 2: Bears problems are too big to be fixed during the season.

860
00:56:48,120 --> 00:56:53,240
Speaker 2: If firing Shane Waldron was a good first step, but uh,

861
00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:58,120
Speaker 2: they have coached the aggressiveness out of Caleb. It is

862
00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:01,719
Speaker 2: not lost on me. Demansay. That is worst three game

863
00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:06,640
Speaker 2: stretch of his career, his young career. He hasn't turned

864
00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:11,279
Speaker 2: the ball over, no picks he is he's gone too

865
00:57:11,280 --> 00:57:14,319
Speaker 2: far in the other direction. He's not taking it. He's

866
00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:16,720
Speaker 2: holding onto the ball if it's not wide open, he's

867
00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:22,000
Speaker 2: not throwing. So I to me, that is that is

868
00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:27,080
Speaker 2: coaching getting in his head. I now he again he

869
00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:30,520
Speaker 2: needs to overcome it. He needs to be better and

870
00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:33,280
Speaker 2: he needs to be more accurate on the easy stuff.

871
00:57:33,800 --> 00:57:36,200
Speaker 2: But he's not all of a sudden throwing the ball

872
00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:39,640
Speaker 2: over over the field. It's the opposite. He's refusing to

873
00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:43,200
Speaker 2: throw the ball. He's and so he has in this

874
00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:46,160
Speaker 2: three game PFF has n't rated with over the last

875
00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:52,320
Speaker 2: three games, Demonsee. One big time throw and zero turnover

876
00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:56,880
Speaker 2: worthy plays. That's not how a rookie quarterback supposed to develop,

877
00:57:57,320 --> 00:57:59,400
Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Like, give me ten big

878
00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:02,960
Speaker 2: time throw and twelve turnover worthy plays. Give me the

879
00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:07,920
Speaker 2: whole gamut, like Peyton Manning his rookie year, twenty eight picks. Fine,

880
00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:08,720
Speaker 2: what and.

881
00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:10,960
Speaker 3: So I think he's got a lot of his shoulders

882
00:58:10,960 --> 00:58:13,160
Speaker 3: man like I think even like some of his teammates

883
00:58:13,200 --> 00:58:16,000
Speaker 3: don't like him, like he obviously had all the hype

884
00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:19,280
Speaker 3: coming into this season. You got Jayde Daniels lighting stuff up.

885
00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:20,760
Speaker 3: I think he's got like a lot of stuff on

886
00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:23,880
Speaker 3: his shoulders and in his mind a lot and he

887
00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:28,920
Speaker 3: even sometimes I seem like, go ahead, yeah, sorry, no

888
00:58:29,040 --> 00:58:32,400
Speaker 3: you go. Sometimes you go, just like players like the

889
00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:34,640
Speaker 3: fifty to fifty balls. Like even I know that he's

890
00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:38,080
Speaker 3: missing his receivers sometimes, but sometimes I feel like his

891
00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:40,600
Speaker 3: receiver can go out there and go get the ball,

892
00:58:40,840 --> 00:58:43,680
Speaker 3: like I maybe two out of six times.

893
00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:45,800
Speaker 2: Doesn't seem like the whole team's pulling in the right

894
00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:49,200
Speaker 2: in the same direction, And it seems like the defensive

895
00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:53,560
Speaker 2: personnel was really mad at eber Flus for not taking

896
00:58:53,600 --> 00:58:58,760
Speaker 2: more accountability for the hail Mary loss, and so all

897
00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:02,000
Speaker 2: like they're that team that hail Mary, that Jayden Daniels

898
00:59:02,280 --> 00:59:05,840
Speaker 2: hail Mary. Might now the Bears offense was already shaky,

899
00:59:06,120 --> 00:59:09,240
Speaker 2: but might have broken the team. All right, Let's go

900
00:59:09,280 --> 00:59:11,600
Speaker 2: to the other rookie quarterbacks.

901
00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:14,880
Speaker 3: Are the first four or first of the four first

902
00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:17,880
Speaker 3: round quarterbacks who have played, Caleb has arguably been the

903
00:59:17,960 --> 00:59:22,400
Speaker 3: least effective. Not all his fault. Daniels, May and Nicks

904
00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:25,600
Speaker 3: have all been better than expected. Obviously, in a redraft,

905
00:59:25,920 --> 00:59:27,600
Speaker 3: the quarterbacks go in this order.

906
00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:34,840
Speaker 2: Oh, I mean, if it were me, they go in

907
00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:39,560
Speaker 2: the exact order they were taken A Caleb, Jade and

908
00:59:39,720 --> 00:59:44,200
Speaker 2: Drake Knicks and I And for the record, I think

909
00:59:44,320 --> 00:59:48,720
Speaker 2: anyone who if you were out on Caleb before the draft,

910
00:59:48,800 --> 00:59:51,240
Speaker 2: so fine, but if you had him as the number

911
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:56,160
Speaker 2: one player through you know, prior to this season, changing

912
00:59:56,200 --> 01:00:01,120
Speaker 2: that based off nine games is idiotic in my opinion. Now,

913
01:00:01,720 --> 01:00:04,600
Speaker 2: I do think a lot of people are reactionary and idiotic.

914
01:00:05,200 --> 01:00:10,160
Speaker 2: So I think a redraft probably would go Jaden, Caleb,

915
01:00:10,320 --> 01:00:15,320
Speaker 2: Drake bo. I don't think Caleb falls behind Drake May,

916
01:00:15,640 --> 01:00:18,480
Speaker 2: who hasn't shown that much or bow Nicks, who's been

917
01:00:18,680 --> 01:00:23,880
Speaker 2: as expected, kind of pro ready but low ceiling. Also,

918
01:00:25,040 --> 01:00:29,720
Speaker 2: I am just gonna point out that, and I'm listen.

919
01:00:29,760 --> 01:00:33,520
Speaker 2: I'm sad for Chet Holmgren that he just broke his hip.

920
01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:40,080
Speaker 2: But you know, one of my less popular but it

921
01:00:40,160 --> 01:00:45,000
Speaker 2: seems to be pretty relevant takes is careful of the

922
01:00:45,080 --> 01:00:48,920
Speaker 2: super skinny athlete I have Kevin. You know, Kevin Durant

923
01:00:48,960 --> 01:00:51,480
Speaker 2: proves it wrong and everyone else proves it right.

924
01:00:52,200 --> 01:00:52,960
Speaker 3: Uh.

925
01:00:53,120 --> 01:00:56,760
Speaker 2: I don't know if people have noticed, but Jade and

926
01:00:56,840 --> 01:01:05,280
Speaker 2: Daniels since the ribs doesn't run quite as much and

927
01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:10,760
Speaker 2: isn't quite as dynamic, and that is a concern, and

928
01:01:10,840 --> 01:01:12,080
Speaker 2: so well.

929
01:01:11,920 --> 01:01:14,280
Speaker 3: You definitely needed to take extra time off. Like he

930
01:01:14,360 --> 01:01:19,120
Speaker 3: came back early. I think they rushed that. He's definitely.

931
01:01:22,080 --> 01:01:25,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that was so the listen. I think Jaden's

932
01:01:25,040 --> 01:01:33,480
Speaker 2: been awesome. But part of that awesomeness is his dynamicism.

933
01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:36,040
Speaker 2: Is that a word? I always want to say that word.

934
01:01:36,520 --> 01:01:39,400
Speaker 2: It's like, no, I don't, It's definitely not that.

935
01:01:40,240 --> 01:01:40,600
Speaker 3: Sorry.

936
01:01:41,280 --> 01:01:45,560
Speaker 2: Uh, dynamicism the degree, Yeah, that is a word. Good

937
01:01:45,640 --> 01:01:50,960
Speaker 2: job by me with his legs is a huge part

938
01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:56,960
Speaker 2: of his value. And this last week he had three

939
01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:59,240
Speaker 2: carries for five yards. What you look confused? What are

940
01:01:59,240 --> 01:02:02,840
Speaker 2: you confused by? Is that not me dismissing your Yeah,

941
01:02:03,160 --> 01:02:14,280
Speaker 2: you said dynamicy. That's not the word dynamicism from No, no, no, Uh, listen,

942
01:02:14,320 --> 01:02:15,360
Speaker 2: maybe I'm using it wrong.

943
01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:22,360
Speaker 3: Oh wait, hold on, is it dynamicy?

944
01:02:23,760 --> 01:02:28,400
Speaker 2: I that's why, God, this is an embarrassing one. So

945
01:02:28,680 --> 01:02:33,240
Speaker 2: I think oh no synonyms? Uh oh no, yeah, no,

946
01:02:33,320 --> 01:02:37,280
Speaker 2: I am wrong, it's not I'm trying to the words dynamic.

947
01:02:37,960 --> 01:02:42,560
Speaker 2: I'm trying to turn it into dynamicism. I sound like

948
01:02:42,600 --> 01:02:48,040
Speaker 2: a moron, but the word is dynamism for some reason.

949
01:02:48,240 --> 01:02:52,680
Speaker 2: The Iced drop the Iced drops out. Gosh darn it,

950
01:02:53,000 --> 01:03:01,600
Speaker 2: bad beat for me. Dynamism. That's it, that job, Nick Wow,

951
01:03:02,160 --> 01:03:04,640
Speaker 2: drop a few of the old IQ points there, Pal,

952
01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:10,920
Speaker 2: All right, let's do u uh. Let's do Giants real quick.

953
01:03:11,720 --> 01:03:14,240
Speaker 3: The Giants lost to the Panthers, but you see a

954
01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:18,880
Speaker 3: silver lining for their future and your tweet Uh yes, yeah,

955
01:03:18,920 --> 01:03:21,600
Speaker 3: so you seem pretty optimistic. The worst NFC team in

956
01:03:21,600 --> 01:03:24,160
Speaker 3: the last ten years will turn it around. The Giants

957
01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:25,040
Speaker 3: future looks.

958
01:03:26,520 --> 01:03:30,160
Speaker 2: Listen, I think that. I think, let me do this

959
01:03:30,320 --> 01:03:35,440
Speaker 2: and then we'll do listener questions. I think both New

960
01:03:35,520 --> 01:03:39,080
Speaker 2: York football teams have a big opportunity here. We didn't

961
01:03:39,080 --> 01:03:41,280
Speaker 2: talk Jets at all in this show because how many

962
01:03:41,280 --> 01:03:43,560
Speaker 2: times can I tell you, guys, I told you dope. So,

963
01:03:44,760 --> 01:03:52,000
Speaker 2: but the Jets, Woody Johnson is gonna have to hand

964
01:03:52,040 --> 01:03:56,439
Speaker 2: over control of the team to Christopher Johnson because Trump won.

965
01:03:56,920 --> 01:04:00,200
Speaker 2: So he's gonna get another cushy ambassador gig and so

966
01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:02,720
Speaker 2: he can't run the team for at least four years.

967
01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:07,560
Speaker 2: Uh So that'll be good for the Jets. If Christopher

968
01:04:07,600 --> 01:04:10,760
Speaker 2: Johnson's like man, I didn't make this deal with Aaron Rodgers.

969
01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:13,840
Speaker 2: You're you're. We don't want you back next year. Buddy,

970
01:04:14,480 --> 01:04:19,120
Speaker 2: you're you're. You're You're old, injured, ineffective, a terrible leader.

971
01:04:19,360 --> 01:04:23,360
Speaker 2: Don't don't take accountability. You're not good anymore. We're moving on.

972
01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:27,640
Speaker 2: Jets can have great draft pick, try to get Sauce

973
01:04:27,720 --> 01:04:29,760
Speaker 2: back to where he was, because Sauce is going in

974
01:04:29,800 --> 01:04:33,919
Speaker 2: the wrong direction. Quinn William's still awesome, Garrett Wilson's good,

975
01:04:34,520 --> 01:04:37,880
Speaker 2: and build around a real coach and a real court,

976
01:04:37,920 --> 01:04:42,680
Speaker 2: a young quarterback fun Giants have a sick defensive line.

977
01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:47,120
Speaker 2: Neighbors is awesome. A franchise left tackle who's out with injury,

978
01:04:47,160 --> 01:04:50,680
Speaker 2: but he'll be back. Bring in Bill Belichick to set

979
01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:54,160
Speaker 2: a culture. Draft a quarterback with your top five pick,

980
01:04:54,200 --> 01:04:57,240
Speaker 2: and get rolling. So I mean, I think that's the

981
01:04:57,360 --> 01:05:02,480
Speaker 2: path forward for those teams. Oh hey, Pacheco designated return

982
01:05:02,680 --> 01:05:05,720
Speaker 2: to come back for UH from IR So he'll be

983
01:05:05,720 --> 01:05:08,320
Speaker 2: back in the next few weeks. Probably not gonna play

984
01:05:08,360 --> 01:05:11,040
Speaker 2: against the I'd be very surprised if he plays against

985
01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:14,280
Speaker 2: the Bills, but he'll be back for the December. Oh

986
01:05:14,600 --> 01:05:17,440
Speaker 2: checko and green Hunt Moms. I only have to throw

987
01:05:17,480 --> 01:05:20,280
Speaker 2: the ball fifteen times a game. What a funny team.

988
01:05:20,360 --> 01:05:23,800
Speaker 2: The Chiefs have turned into defensive oriented ground and pound

989
01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:27,000
Speaker 2: ball control. Love it. Answer some quick listener questions next,

990
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:35,280
Speaker 2: What's right? Welcome back in What's Right with Nick Wright?

991
01:05:35,520 --> 01:05:38,520
Speaker 2: All right, let's do some listener questions quickly to Monsey.

992
01:05:38,640 --> 01:05:43,120
Speaker 3: So chat suggestions on the most NFL most famous NFL players.

993
01:05:43,360 --> 01:05:46,000
Speaker 3: They chimed in and they said, uh, Sean or Peyton,

994
01:05:46,120 --> 01:05:47,920
Speaker 3: Sean Payton or Peyton Manning.

995
01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:50,960
Speaker 2: Peyton man Sean Payton never played football.

996
01:05:51,160 --> 01:05:56,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's just a coach, Peyton the dion Odell. Those

997
01:05:56,840 --> 01:05:58,720
Speaker 3: are the honorable admissions.

998
01:05:58,760 --> 01:06:01,320
Speaker 2: First, let me answer your quest us and Sean Peyton

999
01:06:02,120 --> 01:06:08,680
Speaker 2: played for the following football teams all justin nineteen eighty seven,

1000
01:06:09,520 --> 01:06:15,200
Speaker 2: the Chicago Bruisers, the Pittsburgh Gladiators, the Ottawa Roughriders, the

1001
01:06:15,280 --> 01:06:21,360
Speaker 2: Chicago Bears, and the Leicester Panthers. So my guess is

1002
01:06:22,120 --> 01:06:25,919
Speaker 2: he was a quarterback would be my guest. I don't

1003
01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:28,640
Speaker 2: know the answer to that, but regardless played at the

1004
01:06:28,640 --> 01:06:34,480
Speaker 2: Austra Illinois. Now to answer your questions, Peyton Manning should

1005
01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:38,480
Speaker 2: have been on the list. You're right, he is super

1006
01:06:38,640 --> 01:06:42,720
Speaker 2: duper famous still and Deon Sanders too, so I forgot

1007
01:06:42,720 --> 01:06:46,480
Speaker 2: I yeah, so I don't know where those guys fall

1008
01:06:46,520 --> 01:06:49,160
Speaker 2: on the list, but you're one hundred percent right. Those

1009
01:06:49,240 --> 01:06:54,920
Speaker 2: guys are more famous than any active player other than Mahomes,

1010
01:06:55,000 --> 01:07:00,000
Speaker 2: Kelsey and Rogers. There's no doubt about it all right.

1011
01:06:59,800 --> 01:07:04,040
Speaker 3: Now, Randon Swayze, H, do you think we'll start seeing

1012
01:07:04,440 --> 01:07:07,920
Speaker 3: no podcast clauses in contracts with guys like Micah seemingly

1013
01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:09,600
Speaker 3: undercutting teams pr.

1014
01:07:11,160 --> 01:07:14,280
Speaker 2: H. I think that would be a tough sell. I

1015
01:07:14,320 --> 01:07:20,520
Speaker 2: think here's the problem. The the only guys who are

1016
01:07:20,600 --> 01:07:23,800
Speaker 2: big enough to where they would have a podcast that'd

1017
01:07:23,840 --> 01:07:27,120
Speaker 2: be worth their while are guys that are big enough

1018
01:07:29,080 --> 01:07:32,520
Speaker 2: two guys that are big enough to have enough juice

1019
01:07:32,560 --> 01:07:33,800
Speaker 2: to be like, you're not telling me what I do

1020
01:07:33,840 --> 01:07:36,000
Speaker 2: in my off time, you know what I mean? And

1021
01:07:36,040 --> 01:07:38,040
Speaker 2: so like, now, it'd be one thing if it were

1022
01:07:38,720 --> 01:07:41,600
Speaker 2: injury related, like can't play basketball. Jalen Hurt said he

1023
01:07:41,600 --> 01:07:43,840
Speaker 2: has a handshake agreement not to play golf, which is

1024
01:07:43,840 --> 01:07:47,800
Speaker 2: a weird one. But uh so, no, I don't really

1025
01:07:47,840 --> 01:07:53,040
Speaker 2: think that's coming. Let's go to Let's go to Sakura Chew.

1026
01:07:54,520 --> 01:07:58,280
Speaker 3: Support you. Does Rabel even want Does Rabel even want

1027
01:07:58,280 --> 01:08:02,240
Speaker 3: the Dallas job? Lmao Jerry over is yeah, al Jerry

1028
01:08:02,240 --> 01:08:02,920
Speaker 3: over his shoulder.

1029
01:08:04,120 --> 01:08:08,480
Speaker 2: Well, so I'll do this this very quickly. Jobs that

1030
01:08:09,200 --> 01:08:12,120
Speaker 2: will be or should be open, we did this the

1031
01:08:12,160 --> 01:08:15,320
Speaker 2: other day, but we'll do it again. No NFC West teams,

1032
01:08:16,800 --> 01:08:22,240
Speaker 2: NFC South Saints job, Sorry about that. One of the

1033
01:08:22,240 --> 01:08:25,680
Speaker 2: worst jobs in football right now. So the Dallas job

1034
01:08:25,760 --> 01:08:30,360
Speaker 2: is better than that. NFC North Bears job, great job,

1035
01:08:30,680 --> 01:08:32,559
Speaker 2: but I gotta think the Bears are going to go

1036
01:08:32,600 --> 01:08:37,200
Speaker 2: with an offensive mind to pair with Caleb. Giants job,

1037
01:08:37,920 --> 01:08:41,880
Speaker 2: good job. Potentially Cowboys job is what we're talking about.

1038
01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:47,040
Speaker 2: Raiders job could be open, bad job. JAG's job could

1039
01:08:47,040 --> 01:08:49,439
Speaker 2: be open. I think that could be a good job

1040
01:08:49,600 --> 01:08:55,439
Speaker 2: if Bulky is gone. But I'm higher on Trevor than most.

1041
01:08:55,720 --> 01:08:59,840
Speaker 2: And then Cleveland job probably not going to be open.

1042
01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:04,800
Speaker 2: Jets job worse franchise in the league. So you can say,

1043
01:09:04,880 --> 01:09:07,320
Speaker 2: does he want it? How many jobs are going to

1044
01:09:07,360 --> 01:09:11,360
Speaker 2: be opened that are better? Maybe the Giants, the Bears,

1045
01:09:11,400 --> 01:09:13,920
Speaker 2: but I don't think they're going defense. So you know,

1046
01:09:13,960 --> 01:09:14,400
Speaker 2: it's just.

1047
01:09:15,240 --> 01:09:17,120
Speaker 3: Ever saying anything about the Cincinnati job.

1048
01:09:19,200 --> 01:09:23,320
Speaker 2: Well, I think that would be an amazing job because

1049
01:09:23,360 --> 01:09:27,800
Speaker 2: you have Burrow cheap ownership. And I don't think they're

1050
01:09:27,800 --> 01:09:30,120
Speaker 2: going to fire Zach Taylor like they would have to, really,

1051
01:09:31,160 --> 01:09:35,840
Speaker 2: if you're a Bengals fan. Honestly, what the probably best

1052
01:09:35,840 --> 01:09:38,880
Speaker 2: thing for the Bengals if you're a Bengals fan is

1053
01:09:38,920 --> 01:09:42,160
Speaker 2: for them to not win another game. Let me, that's

1054
01:09:42,200 --> 01:09:44,760
Speaker 2: not fair to Zach Taylor if you're a Bengals fan

1055
01:09:44,800 --> 01:09:49,760
Speaker 2: who doesn't like the head coach, because it would take

1056
01:09:49,800 --> 01:09:53,519
Speaker 2: a real fall off the cliff. I think for them

1057
01:09:53,520 --> 01:09:56,000
Speaker 2: to move on from the coach, all right. Last listener

1058
01:09:56,040 --> 01:09:59,040
Speaker 2: comment chartlet five said, Demanday is really developed into his

1059
01:09:59,080 --> 01:10:01,720
Speaker 2: own personality. It's been so cool to see. I could

1060
01:10:01,800 --> 01:10:04,040
Speaker 2: not agree more. These have been so much fun. I

1061
01:10:04,080 --> 01:10:05,920
Speaker 2: was bummed on Thursday when we couldn't do the pod.

1062
01:10:06,680 --> 01:10:09,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, and so yeah, there was some want of a

1063
01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:11,920
Speaker 3: lay that teaser on Live. Thank you Charte love It's

1064
01:10:12,200 --> 01:10:14,760
Speaker 3: it's been a journey, honestly. I used to be super yeah,

1065
01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:18,000
Speaker 3: super nervous doing this stuff, and I still get nervous

1066
01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:19,880
Speaker 3: about it, but it's it's really been a journey, and

1067
01:10:19,920 --> 01:10:22,160
Speaker 3: I appreciate the support. I've enjoyed doing it.

1068
01:10:22,160 --> 01:10:22,760
Speaker 2: It's been great.

1069
01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:25,040
Speaker 3: Used to love doing it, but I really love doing

1070
01:10:25,080 --> 01:10:27,720
