Speaker 3: right for what top dogs closers go for. And and

19
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,600

20

00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 3: to go through my head, so I gotta I gotta

49
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 3: him up.

50
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 2: It's like, wow, I'm a terrible human being.

51
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 3: But it's what happens when you go and watch a

52
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 3: bunch of King and the Hill reruns.

53
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 2: He's in your brain for over forty years.

54
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: Tire acts, but helping customers find the right tires for how,

58
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: tire buying should be.

59
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 3: What I did just debate though, with the Devin Williams

60
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 3: signing was whether I should slow play it and wait

61
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 3: to see your reaction when Steve Disager had it at

62
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 3: his update.

63
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 2: Oh it was awesome. It was awesome. I'm excited.

64
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 3: I was like, if I do that then you might explode.

65
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 3: I'm excited, and we have to just jump right off

66
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 3: into some other ramoms.

67
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 1: I went into print things off. I came back to

68
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 1: here you just got Devin Williams. I'm like, wow, really

69
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 1: that fault only there was going to print something off

70
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,919
Speaker 1: the computer. Yeah, it just happened. I'm like, wow, that's fantastic.

71
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 3: Okay, then you immediately left the room and went and

72
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:14,960
Speaker 3: started printing again.

73
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:24,239
Speaker 1: I went, so, so again, if the Mets sun any

74
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 1: more closers slash set up, then we'll bring it to you.

75
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 1: But tonight Monday night football again, I want to know

Speaker 1: on Monday night football.

78
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 2: They said this last spring, you know we need, we need,

00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 2: we need the.

80
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 1: Rebuilding Giants on a Monday night game in week thirteen. Yeah,

81
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 1: let's have that.

82
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 3: They also said, seem that we don't really know how

83
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 3: good they're They also said, a rebuilding New England team.

84
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 1: There's no way you thought that you got lucky. You

85
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 1: got lucky with New England.

86
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 3: But who is that executive that's like, yeah, you know,

87
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 3: we got to put these craptastic.

88
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 1: Teams on like week eleven, twelve, and thirteen. Let's hit

89
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 1: that sweet spot where you know people have holidays and things,

90
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 1: they're going, oh, we got to make sure we put

91
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: good teams on. No, no, no, let's put all the big

92
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 1: question marks and the teams that stink a Week eleven,

93
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 1: Week twelve, Week thirteen, I.

94
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 2: Mean it is that.

95
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 3: On the plus side, I mean you do have the

96
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 3: Patriots resplendent to those uniforms reminiscent of the Steve Grogan

97
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 3: era with Mike Vrabel rocking a mustache.

98
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 1: That is the time period. No, the unis do look good. Now,

99
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,480
Speaker 1: the the throwback unis do look good. I gotta say,

100
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:26,719
Speaker 1: I enjoy it.

101
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 2: They remind you of Tom Brady kicking your ounds.

102
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: No might No, actually remind me the eighties and and

103
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,919
Speaker 1: and Grogan and uh and and and garn Varis and

104
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 1: beating us in the wildcard game in the early eighties.

105
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: Andre Tippett. No, that's what that's a reminds me of

106
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 1: Dray Tippitt. When I see these uniforms, I think of

107
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: Steve Grogan and Andre Tippet.

108
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,359
Speaker 2: Those are the two guys. I gotta dig that. Yeah,

109
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 2: that's it. But again, they look good. They look good.

110
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 3: I know it looks clean. If you're gonna have they

111
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 3: also look really clean. Because the Giants haven't done a

112
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 3: lot of anything. If you're gonna give me a bad game,

113
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 3: at least give me one team that looks good in

114
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 3: their uniform doing It's like, I say, Okay, maybe it's

115
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 3: not as bad because they look good doing it.

116
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 2: So all right, that's fine. That's that time of year.

117
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,600
Speaker 3: You keep waiting for the lower third to say you

118
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 3: can buy this uniform on the NFL shot.

119
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 1: But we are the nine and a half minute mark

120
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 1: of the third quarter and the Patriots Giants game is

121
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 1: really close. If you have the Giants getting twenty three,

122
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,279
Speaker 1: it is thirty to seven. It has been all New England.

123
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,679
Speaker 1: Did you say thirty seven? From the in row? From

124
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 1: the jump? Tonight they have been dominating New York. Jackson

125
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 1: Dart looks alternately okay and get rusty. In his first

126
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: start back after concussion, nearly gets another one on a

127
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:37,960
Speaker 1: big hit going out of bounds when he's got to

128
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 1: protect himself, and instead he tries to run towards the

129
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 1: stick for the first down and gets absolutely blown up

130
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,359
Speaker 1: on his way out of bound. So that's on Jackson Dart.

131
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: But I mean, this game is going exactly how he

132
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: thought it was gonna go. Hey, New England's at home.

133
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:52,839
Speaker 1: They do nothing but beat bad teams. I'm sure they'll

134
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 1: beat the Giants badly tonight, and that's what we're getting.

135
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 1: So it's this game is not a surprise.

136
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,360
Speaker 3: Another great example of just take care of the business,

137
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,280
Speaker 3: don't play with your food, going obliterate them. When they

138
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 3: had that long protracted drive to start the game that

139
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 3: ended up with a field goal try, it's like, ah,

140
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:12,039
Speaker 3: this could be interesting and then it wasn't. Uh, then

141
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 3: it got out of sorts really quickly. To your point,

142
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,239
Speaker 3: Jackson Dart has had a couple of near misses putting

143
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,479
Speaker 3: himself in harm's way to the point where that is

144
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 3: now the only talking point when the Giants are on

145
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 3: the field. Yeah, they're down big, what do they need

146
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:30,159
Speaker 3: to do? But look, Jackson Jackson Dart is hands but

147
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 3: he needs to get down. He needs to protect himself

148
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 3: at this point, it's a drinking game. Protect himself. Yeah, yeah,

149
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:37,359
Speaker 3: you know you have to.

150
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 1: It's it's well, I mean really that's the It's like

151
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 1: it's like a mantra that Giants fans like where they

152
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 1: get taken over, like because you know, stranger things just

153
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 1: came out. It's like, you know, the the mind flayers

154
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,600
Speaker 1: and Vechner are taking over people's minds and making them

155
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,600
Speaker 1: just say things like Giants fans have been taken over

156
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 1: by whatever the vecna of the Giants would be, and

157
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 1: they're walking around going protect him, protect him, slide out

158
00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: of bounds, protect him, protect him.

159
00:06:59,279 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 2: You must protect.

160
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,239
Speaker 3: You have a little salty At the number of times

161
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 3: in my timeline I'm getting the here's the guy dressed

162
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 3: up as Vecna just sitting on a post or sitting

163
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:07,880
Speaker 3: in a chair.

164
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 2: It's like, come on, give me some of the magic.

165
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 3: Let me keep some of my childlike wonder instead of

166
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 3: I'm waiting for this guy to start, you know, smoking

167
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 3: a heater.

168
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 1: I gotta think, I gotta think of smoking a cigarette.

169
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 1: The ben Affleck posty ben Athlete is an outside I

170
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 1: do have to say, I do believe, and I may

171
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: be the first person to say this. I mean, I

172
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 1: wonder how much this version of Vecna is based on

173
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 1: Eddie from Iron Maiden, because it looks a lot like

174
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 1: Eddie from and Number of the Beast, like Vecna looks

175
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 1: a lot like it. Of course, that's the eighties and

176
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 1: in the middle of it the heyday for Iron Maiden.

177
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: I wonder how much I said, you know, let's make

178
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: Vecna look like Eddie. Do you think Bruce Dickinson starts

179
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 1: showing up? Tell you what Bruce Dickinson shows up. I'll

180
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 1: be wearing gold plate at Diapers. Never question Bruce Dickinson.

181
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 1: He walks onto the set and delivers that line and

182
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 1: immediately gets defeated. Is that what you're anticipating?

183
00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 2: Now?

184
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: We do have to talk about one play this game

185
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 1: for the next few minutes, because it is that important

186
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 1: in the grand scheme of the final score of this game. No,

187
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 1: not that important in the grand scheme of Hey, we

188
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 1: have to talk about this play. We have to talk

189
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 1: about this. The Patriots are up seventeen nothing to start

190
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 1: this game. The field goal punt, touchdown, seventeen nothing, right,

191
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 1: Jackson Dart throws a touchdown pass, and now the Giants,

192
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 1: facing a fourth down from the Patriots thirty yard line,

193
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,079
Speaker 1: are about to kick a field goal that would tie

194
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 1: or bring it to within one score, and all of

195
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 1: a sudden, the seventeen nothing Patriots lead is now seventeen

196
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 1: to ten, and you're thinking, wait a minute, the Giants

197
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,680
Speaker 1: may have something. Here here's Jackson Dart rally around me.

198
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:45,319
Speaker 1: I will see you, I will see you through hell,

199
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 1: and you think, okay, maybe this could become a game,

200
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 1: except this.

201
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 3: Iron mate would be playing in the background as here

202
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 3: in the trooper.

203
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 1: Follow me to free.

204
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:04,560
Speaker 3: Six, six, the number of the beast hell and five ball.

205
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,959
Speaker 1: So Young Wayku is out there for a field goal,

206
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 1: forty five yard field goal. This is going to make

207
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 1: it a seventeen to ten game. Except this happened forty

208
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 1: seven yard try now by Young Way.

209
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:22,960
Speaker 4: Coo and he stumbled. Jellen gets swallowed up Patriots ball.

210
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 4: I don't think I've ever seen that. Look like his

211
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 4: foot right end of the turf.

212
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,079
Speaker 2: You're laughing at the poor gal. It's been that kind

213
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 2: of year.

214
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 5: Here it is.

215
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 2: Troy Aikman hasn't seen it. I've never seen it.

216
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 1: Young Way who goes to kick the ball and he

217
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:50,800
Speaker 1: simply kicks the ground about two feet behind the football.

218
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 1: Now you see this game, it's it's it's on a

219
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:57,320
Speaker 1: great turf. There's no mud anywhere, there's no slipperiness, there's

220
00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 1: no everything is it's perfect kicking condition. Again, I have

221
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 1: never seen as much as I love kicking field goals

222
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 1: before we played football, I loved I never did this.

223
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 1: This guy, this is a professional field goal kicker in

224
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 1: the NFL, and he goes in and he kicks two

225
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 1: feet behind the ball into the ground like he goes

226
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,640
Speaker 1: in it like it's it's not like, well, he duffs

227
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,559
Speaker 1: it a little bit and he kicked a little bit

228
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: behind the ball. He doesn't get it like he like,

229
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 1: I've hit golf shots like this where a man I

230
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 1: want to hit a couple of inches behind the ball.

231
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: But because you know, I'm a I'm a duffer, and

232
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 1: obviously I did duffer. Because I'm a duffer. He once

233
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,319
Speaker 1: in a while you'll get that swing where a man

234
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 1: I hit about a foot behind the ball.

235
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:40,320
Speaker 2: But that's what this is.

236
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 3: He he kicks and and he lands two feet behind

237
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 3: the football, and then the Giants have to pull it

238
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 3: up and run some kind of crazy ass run around

239
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 3: with the ball because it's not like he even got through.

240
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 3: It's not like he hit it and he brought it

241
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 3: through and it was low. The Giants call on this.

242
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 3: The play by play is even worse. They just thought

243
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 3: he got a block. Oh it's been blocked.

244
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,120
Speaker 1: No, No, he just he kicked two feet kicked the

245
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 1: ground two feet behind the ball.

246
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 2: I'm gonna give me you do that.

247
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 3: The Giant's crew credit then, because that meant they had

248
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,319
Speaker 3: a really bad viewing point and they.

249
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,719
Speaker 2: Were not watching it on a television right.

250
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 3: That means they were end zone or something somewhere.

251
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 2: So I was like, I must have been blocked. And

252
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:20,760
Speaker 2: then they see the replay they say, what the hell

253
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 2: is that like?

254
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 3: As he strides towards the ball and look, I'll be

255
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 3: the first to admit I don't usually look at the

256
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 3: footing of a guy until something's gone terribly wrong, right,

257
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 3: but where he ends up with his plant foot, he's

258
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 3: far ahead of the ball and realizes it and then

259
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 3: literally kicks a giant divot to use your golf thing

260
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 3: with his kicking leg and to where he gets nowhere

261
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 3: near the football. And obviously they're laughing about it in

262
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 3: the press box, but you, you and I were talking about

263
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 3: this before the show, was like, I don't think I've

264
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 3: seen this. And this guy's had a lot of bad

265
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 3: moments begin his His very first field goal for the

266
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 3: Chargers was a kick way too soon.

267
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 1: He missed at the end and the Chargers thought he

268
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 1: made it and they set the cannon off like they

269
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 1: thought he they thought he you know, they they won

270
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: the game and he missed it. I mean, he's had

271
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 1: he's had moments too soon, James bringing memories. I'm sorry,

272
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,319
Speaker 1: man to me, No, I don't need to hear the

273
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:23,839
Speaker 1: butt fubble.

274
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:24,199
Speaker 5: That's fine.

275
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 3: I don't need to hear that, going all the way

276
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 3: back to twenty seventeen for that one, then a long,

277
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 3: long career in Atlanta where he was fantastic, Yeah for

278
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 3: a good chunk of times.

279
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 2: Yeah.

280
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 3: And then we have this play that will now become

281
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 3: the punctuation mark of what has been a disastrous effort.

282
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:44,600
Speaker 3: You've got guys once again disciplinarian, uh kind of consequences

283
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 3: for Abdul Carter. You've got Jackson Dart just trying not

284
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 3: to get hurt. That's really the subplot of all Giants

285
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 3: games at this point. And then we're watching the Patriots

286
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 3: roll up, which I know is vexing for you. I

287
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 3: see you know what, Listen, you think that's bad. I've

288
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 3: seen this.

289
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 1: I've seen the Patriots win super Bowls for the last

290
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 1: twenty years. It doesn't matter that it's Drake May and

291
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 1: Ramandre Stevenson and Trevion Anderson and Christian Gonzales. I've seen

292
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,319
Speaker 1: that uniform with I'm okay if it happens. I've seen

293
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:11,960
Speaker 1: it so many times.

294
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 3: I will say this, though, you use this uniform and

295
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 3: we invoke the name of Grogan and others.

296
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 2: How about a rematch forty years later what we're getting

297
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:21,840
Speaker 2: right now? How about it?

298
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 1: That's where home field advantage is getting right now.

299
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 2: Bears. Bears are the number one seed in the EDFC.

300
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:28,839
Speaker 1: I was waiting to see if we could do the

301
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:30,960
Speaker 1: whole first segment before we brought that up.

302
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 3: Well, only because of those great uniforms, and they bring

303
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 3: back such memories of well defenders terrorizing quarterbacks wearing such

304
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 3: Because there's a new documentary. I don't know if you

305
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 3: know this, there's another new documentary making of the Super

306
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,320
Speaker 3: Bowl shuffle that in because we need Yeah, the sixty

307
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 3: nine Mets and the eighty five Bears, we need more

308
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 3: on that. We need we need more shows on it.

309
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 3: Those guys are still around and need money.

310
00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 1: Or had they not let Buddy Ryan go, they probably

311
00:13:57,640 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: would have won back to them.

312
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 3: Well, if those guys hadn't lifted him over their shoulders

313
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 3: and pissed Ditka off, Yeah, it might have been able.

314
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:04,800

Speaker 1: How are you?

362
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 5: What's going on? Gentlemen?

363
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 2: Hello?

364
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 1: You know this is another game that I don't think

365
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 1: anybody's really surprised by we're watching the Patriots beat the

366
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:39,360
Speaker 1: crap out of the Giants, because this is what the

367
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 1: Patriots do. They beat bad football teams. But look, are

368
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: you believing in the Patriots? Are they really this good?

369
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: Do you really want to see more? Because I know

370
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 1: where are you with where they are right now?

371
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 2: This season?

372
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 5: Well, I mean, it's it's super impressive what they did.

373
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 5: It might not be the most blue chip laden roster

374
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 5: of the world, but they play. They put our asses

375
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:07,920
Speaker 5: off collectively. There's a lot of belief there that manifests

376
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 5: itself in a lot of different ways. Mike Vrabels gets,

377
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 5: you know, even the public act is dig He gets

378
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 5: so much out of his teams, and he gets them

379
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,920
Speaker 5: to believe they're capable of something of some things that

380
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,200
Speaker 5: you and I and Vegas and a lot of people

381
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:29,359
Speaker 5: with these season starts don't believe this is a team

382
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 5: that you know, we know what happened in Fox Prole

383
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 5: and to Brady at Belichick, they wanted a ridiculous rate.

384
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 5: They almost never trailed, Every tumble went their way, every

385
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 5: break went their way, like and then that place turned

386
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:46,480
Speaker 5: into a house of hers when Brady left. And now

387
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 5: they've restored a home field advantage. This quarterback is super special.

388
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 5: And look, there's no great teams. I mean, this is

389
00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:00,400
Speaker 5: the worst version of the Chiefs we've seen since well

390
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 5: homes that we get together. Defending champs are finding ways

391
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 5: to create controversy at lay eggs and two ridiculous things

392
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 5: by the week. I don't know if there's any super teams.

393
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:14,399
Speaker 5: I mean we all would have said the Rams that

394
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:19,199
Speaker 5: we just saw what happened. So I can't discount the

395
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:24,119
Speaker 5: Patriots like I can't say they've become frauds on the

396
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 5: playoffs time, like they're going to have home field advantage.

397
00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,440
Speaker 5: Might they come up a little small by the more

398
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 5: experienced team knock them all? Sure, but maybe not. They're

399
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 5: clearly one of the best teams in the NFL. And

400
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:51,359
Speaker 5: if you want to define that as well as mostly

401
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:55,159
Speaker 5: come against bad teams, well again that we can go

402
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 5: through every team's wins and losses, you're going to find

403
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,679
Speaker 5: the supposed best teams all have a couple of losses

404
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 5: at daylable with that and probably don't have the high

405
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,920
Speaker 5: end quality of wins that you would want from your

406
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 5: you know, foot running potential champion in a normal year.

407
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:20,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's the larger point though, right, is

408
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 3: that you know who actually is good? You mentioned the Rams,

409
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,680
Speaker 3: which would have been the leader in the clubhouse out

410
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:29,480
Speaker 3: coming back this way. You also have Denver that escapes

411
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 3: on the two point. True, I bat it down nine

412
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,359
Speaker 3: in a row. But you go through the laundry list

413
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,880
Speaker 3: of wins there, there's not a lot of heavyweights.

414
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 2: You just beat who's on the schedule.

415
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:43,119
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean your career wins. Do you see what

416
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:48,280
Speaker 5: happened in January? I mean I don't. I don't know,

417
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 5: Like we would probably say, right, like the bill's biggest

418
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,359
Speaker 5: wins are the Ravens week flooded. We see the Ravens

419
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 5: are incredibly flown to you, and then they beat the Chiefs,

420
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,119
Speaker 5: and well, chiefs don't beat anybody on the road, do

421
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:03,920
Speaker 5: you know what I mean? So like if that's to

422
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 5: build's best ridds, well, okay, well how great are those lids?

423
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 5: You know what I mean? Like, what what is that?

424
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,399
Speaker 5: What is being the Chiefs at home this year? Like

425
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 5: what does that really really need? Like I'm not sure

426
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,600
Speaker 5: it means a whole lot, Like we can do the

427
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 5: same exercise, Like to me, the Bears and the Patriots

428
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:28,440
Speaker 5: are front of the same deal with coaches have only

429
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 5: been there a couple of years, quarterbacks who've only been

430
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:36,440
Speaker 5: there a couple of years exceeding expectations. Do we get

431
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 5: it away that you might say might pretend some some

432
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 5: regression in terms of all the fourth quarter stuff, that

433
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:46,640
Speaker 5: all the turnovers and like delay was like never really

434
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 5: had to trail, like play from behind it all this year.

435
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 5: But you look at time spent leading time, spit trailing,

436
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 5: time spent with with with you know, even be guys

437
00:20:56,320 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 5: have never had to trail. So that begs questions. But

438
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 5: I don't think it means that they're absolutely fake that

439
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 5: they put the stream together two or three weeks in January.

440
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 5: I don't know. I'm he's putting a whole lot of

441
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 5: money on it, But I also don't think you can

442
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 5: discount it.

443
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to.

444
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,359
Speaker 1: I want to thirty for thirty on how the hell

445
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,640
Speaker 1: they lost to the Raiders week one, Like, I mean,

446
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:21,719
Speaker 1: I want four hour How did this absolutely happen? How

447
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 1: did can this actually happen?

448
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:28,359
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know, I mean, yeah, at home, but

449
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 5: that was the start of the pet cat receive at

450
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,120
Speaker 5: peaks Right then and day I mean that you don't

451
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 5: want to talk about, you want to talk about let

452
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 5: it all hang out right away, like, And that's how

453
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,200
Speaker 5: Pete lives. He lives every day to the fullest. And

454
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:46,159
Speaker 5: you know he reached the pinnacle of his Raiders coaching

455
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:50,879
Speaker 5: career and his personal revenge game at Foxborough in the

456
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 5: middle of the summer. You know, it did, like early September.

457
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 3: So yeah, that was great, got the best of everybody,

458
00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:58,680
Speaker 3: relieve them of their duties, and now move on.

459
00:21:58,840 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 2: Man, that's how it goes.

460
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 1: Ja Jason Locking for our guests here Fox Sports Radio,

461
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,240
Speaker 1: Jason Smith, Mike Carmon. All right, So now the Bears,

462
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know, you know what kind of

463
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 1: odds they were. If I could say, hey, by week thirteen,

464
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,120
Speaker 1: I want the Bears as the number one seed.

465
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:13,640
Speaker 2: In the NFC.

466
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,920
Speaker 3: But I canna tell you, Jakes, if the Bear, if

467
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 3: the Chiefs were winning like the Bears, we'd make all

468
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 3: kinds of excuses for them. Look how they're pulling stuff

469
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:25,400
Speaker 3: out at the end, complimentary football. But the Bears, it's like, ah, yeah,

470
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 3: that the Bear. The Bears are finding ways to do it.

471
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,119
Speaker 3: And this is a pretty talented roster man. This is

472
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 3: like the era of good feeling now for Chicago.

473
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, and like I did, I do I see a

474
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 5: whole lot of all pro type players on the football team.

475
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:46,240
Speaker 5: I really don't, but I love them with the like

476
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 5: kind of like like I said with the Patriots, and

477
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 5: maybe put Denver in that category as well. In terms

478
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 5: of the young quarterback, I don't. I don't know that

479
00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 5: the Bears have a dominant defense that they are. They

480
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:04,640
Speaker 5: have a dominant trade that dominant traders. They steal three

481
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:09,920
Speaker 5: possessed me from you a game with the Turtles, that's

482
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,680
Speaker 5: real for them. It keeps happening, so I can't say

483
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:16,040
Speaker 5: that it won't happen again. Is it gonna happen next year?

484
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,439
Speaker 5: I don't know. It's gonna happen in the playoffs. I

485
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 5: don't know, but a damn site keeps happening in the

486
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:25,720
Speaker 5: regular season, and I don't think that's going a way.

487
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:33,879
Speaker 5: So like, I don't know, guys, like this could be

488
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:38,400
Speaker 5: a year like where it's truly wide open and there's

489
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,560
Speaker 5: a bit of a changing to the guy and we

490
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 5: get you know, I don't know, Houston against Chicago at

491
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 5: the super Bowl or something like that, but it might

492
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 5: it might be out there. Man, it might be a

493
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:55,800
Speaker 5: little bit bleep crazy. I think it has. It has

494
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 5: that sort of potential.

495
00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, plus seventeen turnover differential right now. Now, Houston tied

496
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:05,359
Speaker 3: with the Rams and Buccaneers at plus nine, uh for

497
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:09,440
Speaker 3: second place in that category. But you mentioned Houston, and

498
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,120
Speaker 3: all of a sudden we got a lot of intrigue

499
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 3: in the AFC South as Trevor Lawrence in his run

500
00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:15,560
Speaker 3: game have gotten things going.

501
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 2: CJ.

502
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 3: Stroud's back with the great defense, and then we still

503
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 3: have the Colts h and Daniel Jones's broken leg handicapped

504
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 3: the final four weeks.

505
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 5: Well, look, I've been saying and writing in the post

506
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,399
Speaker 5: for a long time that mumps division and going to

507
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,199
Speaker 5: the playoffs, and the Colts aren't necessarily one of them.

508
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:37,919
Speaker 5: Uh you know, yeah, you got the soft cargo thing

509
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 5: though he got Dago Zones playing with the broken shoulder

510
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,800
Speaker 5: or whatever it is. You've had some certainly some regression

511
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 5: for them. You uh, you have like you got some

512
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 5: tough face games coming up. Jacksonville three is smoked the

513
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:59,600
Speaker 5: Beers and I don't really like the quarterback, but they

514
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 5: want games. Do they have a signature with do they

515
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:08,160
Speaker 5: have a dominant trait other than turnovers, even that has

516
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 5: plowed up since the beginning of the year. I don't

517
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 5: know that they do. I don't really think they have

518
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 5: a huge or discernible hopefield advantage. But like, could they

519
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:28,479
Speaker 5: win that division? I think they absolutely could win that division. Yeah,

520
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 5: I like, I think used To could win that division.

521
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:36,880
Speaker 5: I mean, I think Indianapolis could win that division. I mean,

522
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 5: I don't think three teams from that division are going

523
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:44,160
Speaker 5: to the playoffs, but I guess that's full of mathematical probability,

524
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:50,880
Speaker 5: like possibility. You know, Houston be beating Buffalo could turn

525
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:55,080
Speaker 5: out to be a really significant tiebreaker. So yeah, I

526
00:25:55,119 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 5: mean I do dart any team there. I mean, at

527
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,640
Speaker 5: various times this year, I've made the case for three

528
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:09,159
Speaker 5: to four teams to win that division. The goodness is

529
00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 5: one of them probably right with one of them, Tennessee.

530
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 2: At some point, you got right about without one.

531
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 5: Hundred percent, right, Jogi Bear would say, yeah, I got

532
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:22,240
Speaker 5: a one hundred chance of being at least thirty three

533
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 5: percent right, Yeah, exactly.

534
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 3: He's on Twitter at Jason lock and four. That's at

535
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,680
Speaker 3: Jason lock and four. I want to bet one oh

536
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,880
Speaker 3: five seven. The fan in Baltimore, Odessey, Washington Post Jay

537
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:34,640
Speaker 3: is always buddy, appreciate.

538
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,919
Speaker 1: Your time, my friend. Enjoy that that win percentage air.

539
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:37,879
Speaker 1: We'll talk to you next week.

540
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, let's get three more points of this football teer

541
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:43,439
Speaker 5: game here, boys get let's get the over all, right.

542
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,920
Speaker 1: Jason, Yeah, Look, you know the main point is, Look,

543
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:51,480
Speaker 1: you think about what we talked about the Patriots, and yes,

544
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:55,639
Speaker 1: their schedule is incredibly easy. But when you look at Okay,

545
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 1: they've beaten some allegedly good teams. But that's the thing

546
00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 1: is that there's nobody you can and say, well, this

547
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,160
Speaker 1: team is a top everybody. What do we say last week?

548
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 1: There's nobody to believe in. The Rams are the only

549
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 1: team to believe it. And now the Rams let me down.

550
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 1: Like the Rams, come on, man, really you go.

551
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,720
Speaker 3: You were walking the beach trying to figure things out,

552
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,359
Speaker 3: like reach, you go win to Carolina and let and

553
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,679
Speaker 3: let Bryce Young well look like like like a Pro

554
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,359
Speaker 3: Bowl quarterback against you, the best defense in the NFC.

555
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 3: Like there was one team to believe in last week.

556
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,439
Speaker 3: Now there's no teams. There are no great teams, and

557
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:30,520
Speaker 3: it's hard to measure one team's schedule against another because well,

558
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 3: how good of a win is this? How good of

559
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,280
Speaker 3: a win is this? I just look at the Patriots

560
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,720
Speaker 3: and go, wow, I feel like they had a five

561
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 3: week stretch of I think. I don't think the teams

562
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 3: have five total wins when they're playing, so it is

563
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 3: an easy schedule. But the flip side to give the

564
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 3: Patriots credit is I again, I don't know what teams

565
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 3: I can say right now.

566
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:49,720
Speaker 1: Yeah they're great, Yeah they're really really great. Yeah they're

567
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 1: even the Broncos great record, But how you need it

568
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 1: overtime to beat Marcus Mariota last night? I mean, come on, man,

569
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,440
Speaker 1: really need a big stand on a two point play

570
00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:58,640
Speaker 1: to beat the Commanders?

571
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:02,199
Speaker 3: Come on, dude, immediately see the replay of how wide

572
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:05,920
Speaker 3: open the running back and yeah, wide receiver did a

573
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 3: good job of picking off to guys like all he's

574
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:10,760
Speaker 3: got to do is get the ball out over the

575
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 3: art stretched arm. But to that point, right, all the

576
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 3: young quarterbacks, all the teams and trying to parse it

577
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:18,880
Speaker 3: all out, it's kind of like the college football landscape.

578
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:20,640
Speaker 3: We're like, all right, this was a really good win

579
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 3: back in the second week of September. Now that team's

580
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,120
Speaker 3: four and seven, How good a win, is it?

581
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:27,400
Speaker 5: Yes?

582
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 3: Debate right, I mean, and we're doing that a lot

583
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,720
Speaker 3: as we get ready for the next round of playoff

584
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 3: rankings and everything tomorrow. It's that same thing. It's like,

585
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:37,920
Speaker 3: all right, is that really a quality win anymore?

586
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 2: I don't know. It's difficult.

587
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,400
Speaker 1: I mean it you look and go, well, how you

588
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:46,120
Speaker 1: can't do the transitive property? Look, they beat these three teams.

589
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,200
Speaker 1: These three teams lost to these two teams. These two

590
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 1: teams lost. It's really there are there are zero teams,

591
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:53,520
Speaker 1: and I really I feel like the Rams they let

592
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:55,480
Speaker 1: me down. Now, I'm kind of pissed at the Rams.

593
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 3: I mean on the plus side for the Patriots to

594
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:01,480
Speaker 3: plus ninety two for the years. So generally they're curb

595
00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:04,000
Speaker 3: shopping when given an opportunity, won't you play bad? Team's

596
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:07,000
Speaker 3: supposed to win? Well, that's us uh style. Time out

597
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,240
Speaker 3: to find out what's trending in the wide world of sports.

598
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 3: So someone who's been called the Lane Kiffin of Fox

599
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 3: Sports Radio really day to day, we don't know where

600
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,680
Speaker 3: he's going to be. It's Steve Desager, But I would

601
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 3: like to stay with this show until I go to

602
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:19,720
Speaker 3: my new show.

603
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 1: Did you Pray on It? Did you pray last night

604
00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 1: to pray on it?

605
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 7: Make their playoff coming up?

606
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:24,240
Speaker 2: Do? I?

607
00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 7: How about I leave and then I still get paid

608
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 7: for this show for the next few weeks.

609
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 1: Okay, as long as you tell me how difficult a

610
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 1: decision it was for all.

611
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:35,239
Speaker 7: The people who didn't hear the people, the journalists who

612
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,200
Speaker 7: got a hold of the contract. Lane Kiffen's new deal

613
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,000
Speaker 7: with LSU. He's going to get bonus money for his

614
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 7: old team Old Miss advancing to the season's playoffs, and

615
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 7: then if they keep winning over the next month, he'll

616
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 7: keep getting more bonus money from the Old Miss victories. Also,

617
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 7: if his LSU club wins the national title, he'll automatically

618
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 7: become the nation's highest paid coach. And LSU, by the way,

619
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 7: still ow's former coach Brian Kelly over fifty million dollars

620
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 7: after firing him in October, it is still paying former

621
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 7: coach at Oorgeron as well.

622
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 2: I need a thirty for thirty on.

623
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 1: Does LSU have the most nil money of any team?

624
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,320
Speaker 1: I mean, really, this is insane the money they're spending.

625
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 1: They're spending, but I thought the governor was getting it

626
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 1: under control.

627
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 7: Right, right exactly. Let's believe the politicians. Yet again, if nil,

628
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:24,760
Speaker 7: If you're talking about the image of the coaches, yes,

629
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:28,000
Speaker 7: I go, it's going to somebody's image, not necessarily making

630
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 7: it onto the playing field. BYU head coach Kalate Sataki

631
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 7: is reportedly a candidate for the Penn State job. His

632
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 7: team is going to be in its conference final this weekend,

633
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 7: so you could guess that he doesn't really want to

634
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 7: hear much about that. Jason Smith, we have a Penn

635
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 7: State story, okay, and we have a UCLA story with

636
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 7: coaching as well.

637
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 2: We want the Penn State story first. Okay.

638
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:51,640
Speaker 7: I mentioned Sataki and he reportedly has met with Penn State. Yes,

639
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 7: but he's trying to deflect this week. Obviously, They've got

640
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 7: a big game to play this weekend. UCLA's new football coach.

641
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 3: Well, now, the big thing about this, though, is that

642
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,480
Speaker 3: and with BYU with no no, Yeah, with with BYU

643
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 3: clearly with Satake, hoping this doesn't mushroom into something bigger

644
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:10,120
Speaker 3: than it is.

645
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 2: J Holy cow. If you thought that was good, wait

646
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:15,479
Speaker 2: till this one coming up.

647
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 7: Now, those are not served at the restaurants I attend chess.

648
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,600
Speaker 7: For the record, UCLA's new coach will be Bob Chesney,

649
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:24,840
Speaker 7: who will still coach James Madison this weekend in the

650
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 7: Sunbelt title game plus any playoff after that.

651
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 2: TJ.

652
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:32,880
Speaker 3: Clearly the question for Chesney Kenny winn at his new school.

653
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:34,920
Speaker 7: Okay, I think we all got.

654
00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:35,280
Speaker 2: That, TJ.

655
00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 3: When the sun goes down? Will Chesney be able to

656
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 3: get victories? Chesney saying, there goes my life at Westwood

657
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 3: for UCLA.

658
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:47,720
Speaker 2: Did you get a boys of fall equipping while you're

659
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 2: at it?

660
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:48,800
Speaker 3: Oh?

661
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 7: They fallen enough this past fall. Kentucky fired coach Mark Stoops.

662
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 7: Anything there, that's that mean? That's the last name that's

663
00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:56,000
Speaker 7: asking for?

664
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 2: Well, TJ.

665
00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 3: Clearly, Kentucky, he stooped as far as they could until

666
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:03,480
Speaker 3: they had to make a change.

667
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 2: He'd been there thirteen years.

668
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 7: Over the last two seasons he went nine to fifteen,

669
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 7: including Saturday's forty one nothing loss at rival Louisville. Yeah,

670
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 7: there is a little money involved here as well. This

671
00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 7: is a guy who this past year for the bad record,

672
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:21,240
Speaker 7: earned nine million dollars and was signed until twenty thirty one,

673
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 7: so he still owed over thirty five million dollars. Jonathan

674
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:29,120
Speaker 7: Smith was just fired by Michigan State yesterday Spartan's new

675
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:32,680
Speaker 7: head football coach, Pat Fitzgerald X of Northwestern. By the way,

676
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 7: Texas A and M fell to number seven in the

677
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 7: new AP poll. For what it's worth, the new committee

678
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:38,880
Speaker 7: rankings come out Tuesday, but with the A and M

679
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 7: loss this past Friday, Georgia is in the SEC title

680
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 7: game next Saturday, going back to Atlanta to pay to

681
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:48,560
Speaker 7: face Alabama. Texas Tech will be against BYU in the

682
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:52,800
Speaker 7: Big twelve title game. Fox TV this Saturday night has

683
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:55,760
Speaker 7: number one Ohio State against number two ranked Indiana for

684
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 7: the Big Ten crown in Indianapolis. Now Miami is ranked

685
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,640
Speaker 7: number twelve well, but Duke will be in the ACC

686
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:07,000
Speaker 7: Championship game against Virginia. Go figure College Football selection Sunday, an.

687
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 3: Eleven way tie, She's Duke make it to the ACC Championship.

688
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,320
Speaker 7: Seemingly half of the Mountain West Conference tied for first

689
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 7: as well, and they announced in advance we're just going

690
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 7: to the computers. We won't have humans involved in this.

691
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 7: Whatso mean?

692
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:21,800
Speaker 5: Really? Is it? That?

693
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:24,400
Speaker 1: Is it that tough for a tiebreaker? You have to

694
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 1: have foresight, You have to say, okay, new new situation

695
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:29,880
Speaker 1: with the playoff, let's vote on it. Let's just make

696
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,840
Speaker 1: sure the highest ranked teams are into the conference championship game?

697
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:34,360
Speaker 1: Why why could we not do that?

698
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 2: Why could we do?

699
00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:38,360
Speaker 3: Like Texas breaker football. You meet at a gas station,

700
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:39,440
Speaker 3: do you flip a coin?

701
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 2: I can go for that.

702
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 7: I can go for that too, the reference of computers.

703
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,120
Speaker 7: Do we not all remember when Pete Carroll was coaching

704
00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 7: a good team at USC about twenty years ago, and

705
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 7: they were ranked number one in both polls, but the

706
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:53,080
Speaker 7: computers did not have them. In the BCS National Title Game,

707
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 7: the Mets gave reliever Devin Williams a three year deal

708
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 7: closer Edwin Diaz as a free agent. I assume you're

709
00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 7: you're gonna have them both.

710
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,200
Speaker 1: Yes, of course, yes, And we may or may not

711
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,239
Speaker 1: have Alonzo. If Devin Williams is I can't look at

712
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 1: that guy. The Mets will let him go. If it's

713
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:08,680
Speaker 1: okay to bring him BA, they'll bring him back.

714
00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:09,240
Speaker 2: Can he pitch?

715
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:13,359
Speaker 1: He's going to be the designated hitter if they bring

716
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 1: him back. Well, now let's get to the Monday night

717
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 1: football game. There's not been a lot to talk about here.

718
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,239
Speaker 1: It was thirty to seven Patriots over the Giants at

719
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:25,439
Speaker 1: the half. It's now thirty to fifteen. As yes, there's

720
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:28,120
Speaker 1: been a two point conversion from Jackson Dart, who is

721
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,839
Speaker 1: back started after missing time with a concussion. His two

722
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:34,480
Speaker 1: point pass, he first scrambled around a literal distance of

723
00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:37,919
Speaker 1: over forty yards before he threw to the end zone successfully.

724
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 1: Thirty to fifteen were mid fourth quarter of this game,

725
00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:43,920
Speaker 1: but it's been a blowout. After the first quarter, it

726
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,759
Speaker 1: was Patriots seventeen nothing, their largest lead at the end

727
00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:50,720
Speaker 1: of one in six years. For the Giants, their largest

728
00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:53,720
Speaker 1: deficit at the end of one in nearly twenty years.

729
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:58,680
Speaker 1: By halftime, that Giant's deficit was their second largest ever

730
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,319
Speaker 1: on a Monday Night football game. Before tonight, they've played

731
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 1: on Monday Night football seventy five times. There are three

732
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,239
Speaker 1: late games in the NBA, including at the end of

733
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:09,719
Speaker 1: one the Lakers at home tied with Phoenix thirty one

734
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 1: to zero. Luka Donsich in the first twelve minutes has

735
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 1: twenty points, eight of eleven from the floor. Meanwhile, Anthony

736
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 1: Davis twenty three points in his twenty two minutes, most

737
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:22,759
Speaker 1: of that scoring in the first half. Dallas leads at

738
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:26,239
Speaker 1: Denver ninety eight ninety seven. Late in the third Washington

739
00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:29,480
Speaker 1: was two and sixteen, but edge Milwaukee. The Clippers are

740
00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:32,319
Speaker 1: just awful this year five and sixteen. The record they

741
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:35,160
Speaker 1: lost at Miami won forty to one, twenty three. Back

Speaker 1: you are absolutely the play of the day forty seven yard.

764
00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:38,640
Speaker 4: Try now by Young waycoo and he stumbled jell EN's

765
00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:41,520
Speaker 4: get swallowed up Patriots ball.

766
00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:43,880
Speaker 2: I don't think I've ever seen that.

767
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:48,800
Speaker 4: Looked like he just stubbed his foot right into the turf.

768
00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:52,479
Speaker 2: Oh it's been that.

769
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:53,000
Speaker 4: Kind of year.

770
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 3: There he is ESPN on the call, Joe Buck Troy Aikman,

771
00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:01,080
Speaker 3: you know, and you wonder and people start talking about

772
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 3: it online, some doctors like, is he gonna have some

773
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 3: kind of toe injury? Is he gonna have turf toe something?

774
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:10,000
Speaker 3: Because he missed the ball by two feet he kicked

775
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:13,359
Speaker 3: two feet behind the ball. Yeah, no, his posture as

776
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 3: he did his approach, like because his plant foot ends

777
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:18,319
Speaker 3: up going out in front of the football and it's

778
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:22,160
Speaker 3: almost like he realizes he missed strode in that initial

779
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:26,600
Speaker 3: approach to the ball and straight into the ground and

780
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:27,800

00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:35,759

00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:52,959
Speaker 3: It's a year when everything has gone wrong, mavers cert

792
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:56,280
Speaker 3: and ripping the team and pulling down social media posts.

793
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:57,640
Speaker 2: You fired a coach.

794
00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:01,040
Speaker 3: You talk about your quarterback in and out of the tent,

795
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,440
Speaker 3: former coach going into tent to try to protect him

796
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,880
Speaker 3: and look after him. You had a brief moment of

797
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 3: scatabo scatabo. How's were in a helmet playing video games

798
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:13,239
Speaker 3: for crying out loud? Come on, now, I do have

799
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:14,960
Speaker 3: one bit of good news for the Giants. You want

800
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:16,399
Speaker 3: a big, hot take off, it's a night's game.

801
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:19,160
Speaker 1: I got one for you. This has not been his

802
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:22,120
Speaker 1: greatest game, obviously. You know, fourteen out of nineteen he's

803
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 1: only thrown for one hundred yards. It's the Giants are

804
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 1: a bad football team and weapons are getting hurt all

805
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:29,520
Speaker 1: the time. Tyrone Tracy just left the game with what

806
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:31,680
Speaker 1: looked like it could have been a head injury on

807
00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:34,480
Speaker 1: a tackle. You've already said we've lost Malik neighbors. You

808
00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:37,080
Speaker 1: lost Scataboo. I mean you're still trying to make Darius

809
00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:39,240
Speaker 1: Slayton's going to be forty five years old, still catching

810
00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:40,240
Speaker 1: passes for the Giants.

811
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:41,200
Speaker 2: Hey, we got him.

812
00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:45,279
Speaker 3: First round pick. Doesn't show up a lot of times. Yeah, you,

813
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:48,760
Speaker 3: I've seen enough from him this year. The Giants will

814
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,279
Speaker 3: have head coach TBA next year who will come in

815
00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:54,680
Speaker 3: with an offensive background. The Giants job is the best

816
00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:57,960
Speaker 3: job in football in the last three few years, because

817
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 3: you're coming in with an opportunity to seek seed. You

818
00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:04,480
Speaker 3: have a fresh slate that players need coming in, and

819
00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 3: you have Dart. You'll have Neighbors coming back, Scatabu coming back,

820
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,279
Speaker 3: great defensive line, hopefully get up Dual Carter to more games.

821
00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:14,000
Speaker 3: Have his first sack tonight, So congratulations. But I will

822
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:15,879
Speaker 3: tell you this, I'll give you this bolt prediction. By

823
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 3: this time next year, by next December, we're talking about

824
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:21,840
Speaker 3: Jackson Dart being one of the top five quarterbacks in

825
00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:24,239
Speaker 3: the NFL. You've seen him flash, you've seen him put

826
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:26,920
Speaker 3: numbers up, You've seen him grab this team by the throat,

827
00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 3: You've seen his leadership. I have no doubt in my mind.

828
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 3: By this time next year, full training camp with the starters,

829
00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 3: full full season with his weapons. Again, watch out, He'll

830
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:38,880
Speaker 3: be a top five quarterback in the end. He'll be

831
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:40,520
Speaker 3: a consensus top five guy by this time.

832
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:42,920
Speaker 2: Are they gonna have five offensive linemen that can keep

833
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:43,239
Speaker 2: him up?

834
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:43,440
Speaker 5: Right?

835
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,880
Speaker 3: Will he change his style and approach? Because I know

836
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:49,240
Speaker 3: that's what makes him special And this is where it's maddening.

837
00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:52,080
Speaker 3: We talk about quarterbacks and their ability to move and

838
00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:55,839
Speaker 3: elude defenders in the pocket, get to the edge and

839
00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:58,680
Speaker 3: make plays, and that's been fantastic a watch. I don't

840
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:01,080
Speaker 3: trust that he's ever getting there by he's gonna be

841
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:04,080
Speaker 3: that guy that could have been a top Look at you,

842
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:05,800
Speaker 3: I'm saying this about a giant.

843
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 2: I don't want this to happen, but it's going just

844
00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:08,880
Speaker 2: like it is.

845
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:12,160
Speaker 3: He's electric and he's fun as hell to watch. I

846
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:13,319
Speaker 3: don't trust he's staying up.

847
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:16,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, but this is not for him where it's gonna

848
00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:19,759
Speaker 1: be hard for him to unlearn, like Cam Newton or

849
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:23,720
Speaker 1: Kaepernick or RG three because his scrambling abilities. I scrambled

850
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,319
Speaker 1: got out about this is not I'm Lamar Jackson' running

851
00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:27,320
Speaker 1: in the middle of the field and I gotta no

852
00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:27,880
Speaker 1: one to slide.

853
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:30,480
Speaker 2: This is this is more. Hey, just make the smarter,

854
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:33,040
Speaker 2: Just make the smart. It's made a lot of dumb plays.

855
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:35,120
Speaker 2: Go back. He used to do the thing like he

856
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 2: was Nelson Munch run down.

857
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:36,960
Speaker 5: It goes.

858
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:38,759
Speaker 2: I see that guy over there, I'm gonna go hit him.

859
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,000
Speaker 1: That's an easy enough thing for him to fix in

860
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:42,920
Speaker 1: the offsea. I don't see this as being something that's

861
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:45,200
Speaker 1: that big a deal. Plus a lot more weapons a personality,

862
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:47,920
Speaker 1: have more weapons to make plays and and it'll be

863
00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:50,000
Speaker 1: a little bit don't have to do everything himself like

864
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 1: he's trying to do it.

865
00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:52,640
Speaker 3: Whoever the new coaches has to say, you don't have

866
00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:54,600
Speaker 3: to pretend you're you're a linebacker.

867
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:56,839
Speaker 2: Lane Kiffin will get the best out of him next year.

868
00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 3: You watch, is he gonna talk to Marty Smith with

869
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:00,480
Speaker 3: a violinist behind him?

870
00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:03,600
