Speaker 1: What was your final wings and motts count?

10
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 2: It was insane.

11
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,239

Speaker 3: My final food count, I had eleven wings, two mots

15
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 3: of Rellistics, three buffalo shrimp, a basket of fries, half

16
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 3: of the you tray that came for the table, and

17
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 3: a piece.

18
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:06,320
Speaker 2: Of chocolate cake and to diet cokes with lemon.

19
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: I'm all disappointed in the amount of mozzarella sticks that

20
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 1: were consumed there, but yet I'll.

21
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 2: Bring us more or I would have had more.

22
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 1: You were trying to share with the group. How many

23
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: people were you with?

24
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 2: There were twelve of us.

25
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 1: Wow, yeah, stucky, I know you. You go pretty hard

26
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 1: for the Super Bowl every year. What was it like

27
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:23,840
Speaker 1: on your end?

28
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 4: Ah? Terrible. I had a wholeful super Bowl because of

29
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 4: the fourth quarter. First, the whole day was awful. I

30
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 4: ordered I pre ordered one hundred and fifty wings for

31
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 4: the bar at I pre ordered them at noon and

32
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 4: they're supposed to get there at six at six thirty. Nothing,

33
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 4: I call and they didn't. They got the orders mixed

34
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,360
Speaker 4: up and never got my order, so I had to

35
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 4: order again. Got that. They ended up getting there at

36
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 4: like eight thirty, and everyone was hungry. I bought so

37
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 4: many squares of this big of this big bar pool

38
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 4: and there was only like a one row and one

39
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 4: column left. I got both two's, so there's thousands of

40
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 4: dollars down the drain. And then my five like main

41
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 4: positions on the game, where I had the Seahawks under

42
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 4: twenty five and a half total points, which I thought

43
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 4: was gonna be good.

44
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 1: That's what we usually think.

45
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 4: And then I had under three and a half touchbacks,

46
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 4: so Drake May throws a pick six after two short

47
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 4: field scores, there's a pick six and then there's a

48
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 4: touchback after that, so then I have Hunter Henry props,

49
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 4: so I'm like, all right, well, at least they're getting

50
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 4: blown out, and then the Pats are gonna met the ball.

51
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 4: He gets a concussion and doesn't come in for the

52
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 4: final dry, so it's Austin Hooper who gets the catches.

53
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 4: So I had Henry over sixteen and a half longest catch.

54
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 4: His longest catch was sixteen. Henry over three and a

55
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 4: half receptions. He ends with three under twenty five and

56
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 4: a half Seahawks, they score a pick six to go

57
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 4: over in the fourth quarter under three and a half touchbacks.

58
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 4: There's four touchbacks because of that pick six. And then

59
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,839
Speaker 4: my other main position was over seven and a half

60
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 4: total runners in the game. There was seven and the

61
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 4: Patriot there was no sneak from Barner. There was no

62
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 4: no one else in the Patriots ran it. They didn't

63
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,079
Speaker 4: get creative, so I lost. The only thing I got

64
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:30,360
Speaker 4: right was under under longest punt return great, and then

65
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 4: I had some Barner touchdown, but I even had what

66
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 4: could have saved the day. I also had some all

67
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 4: unders which all got blown up.

68
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: In the fourth and that was such an under game too.

69
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 1: But it just they got aggressive. The Pats got aggressive

70
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: at the end, just trying.

71
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 4: To yeah, and then he gets gets a concussion.

72
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 1: So we all did. I think we all did pretty bad.

73
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 1: Did not hit the parlay Kendrick's leg of Drake May

74
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: throwing a pick the one to come through. I saw.

75
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: I saw the shit eating grin on Kendrick's face when

76
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: you mentioned Austin Hooper, because I know you were on Hoop,

77
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 1: but I was going through the app. We all sucked.

78
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 4: Okay, Also defensive MVP, which could have said that, but

79
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,919
Speaker 4: any defensive player to gain MVP and guy.

80
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 1: Controude, So let's just let's just get to it. Let's

81
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: just get to the main dish. We'll start with the

82
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 1: MVP because Kendrick's all up in arms over the kicker

83
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,039
Speaker 1: with a bunch of chip shots not getting m VP.

84
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 1: I think if anybody other than Kenneth Walker, and it

85
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: was pretty obvious throughout the game that if Seattle won,

86
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 1: which they was never really a sweat, that they were

87
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,720
Speaker 1: going to that Kenneth Walker was going to claim MVP.

88
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 1: I thought, Devin Witherspoon, if you're just looking at things

89
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 1: schematically in the and and the basically the strip sack

90
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 1: that he had that sealed the game. I think you're

91
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,480
Speaker 1: gonna make made a case for him. Why Jason Myers.

92
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 1: I mean, other than the fact that the guy hit

93
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: a bunch of easy field goals, how does that equate

94
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: super Bowl MVP status.

95
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 3: He had the most points, He did the things he

96
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 3: was supposed to do. Honestly, if it wasn't for the

97
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 3: absolute breakdown of the offensive line in the second.

98
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 2: Half, he he he.

99
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 3: Should have been my MVP one because I think he

100
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 3: deserved it too. I think it would have been so funny.

101
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 3: I just I needed it for the plot. It was

102
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 3: the super Bowl we deserved, it was the MVP we deserved,

103
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 3: and for the hilarity of it all. He had an

104
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 3: incredible first half, didn't miss extra points.

105
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 2: Also, his my king him or the punter like that?

106
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 1: Then, dude, I knew that the game sucked when the

107
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,039
Speaker 1: punter started getting credit for the way he spun the

108
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 1: ball off of his foot of like, this is not

109
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,719
Speaker 1: going to go down as one of the all time

110
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 1: great super Bowls. I was good with the way that

111
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,719
Speaker 1: it went. As far as Walker getting it, he is

112
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 1: the first running back that we've seen since Terrell Davis

113
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 1: in Super Bowl thirty two to take home Super Bowl MVP. Stucky.

114
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:00,600
Speaker 1: Do you think the voters got it right?

115
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 4: I get I mean, I guess it was. It's a

116
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 4: tricky one. I mean, the fact that Walker had such

117
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,920
Speaker 4: a successful day against that run defense, Uh, he deserves

118
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:17,039
Speaker 4: his flowers for that. But I mean, honestly, it just

119
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:18,919
Speaker 4: the way that that game went, it feels like it

120
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 4: should have been someone on the Seahawks defense. I mean,

121
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 4: Drake May was miserable. He now he ends with the

122
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 4: worst EPA in NFL history in any postseason. Uh, he

123
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 4: was terrible. Again. I don't know what the Patriots game

124
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 4: plan was. What what did they They didn't do anything creative, nothing.

125
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 2: They they were so unprepared for that game. It was

126
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,679
Speaker 2: the defense they were playing.

127
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 4: What what did they do for the past two weeks?

128
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 4: There was there was? They just drop back Drake May

129
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,040
Speaker 4: with that offensive line after and just pray.

130
00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 1: Never mind the fact that Vrabel was one of the

131
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 1: most aggressive coaches in the NFL all year. They've got

132
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 1: a fourth and one midfield in the middle of that

133
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 1: game and they punt. That's not been their brand all year.

134
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: It just felt like they played scared. They got away

135
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 1: from who they were. And I do think the Drake

136
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 1: may injury perhaps played a factor in this, because we

137
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 1: did see the story that he received in an injection

138
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 1: in his shoulder prior to the game. That means there

139
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 1: was some real pain there, and I felt like he

140
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 1: only got worse in terms of missing some throws that

141
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 1: he's been making all year as the game went along.

142
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 1: Is that toar doll shot starts to wear off. It

143
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,800
Speaker 1: felt like that was an impact in my opinion, Kendra.

144
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 1: Has that been a big conversation around your area.

145
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's been a massive conversation, just because all of

146
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 3: the people who are known to be very in the

147
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 3: Patriots pocket up here were very adamant that it was fine.

148
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 3: It wasn't going to be a story, it wasn't going

149
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 3: to be a difference maker. I'm sorry, if you take

150
00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 3: a tour it all shot, it's not enough.

151
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 2: It's not something you haven't been struggling with. It is.

152
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 3: You don't choose to do that if something is not wrong.

153
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 3: And I get that he was on the injury report

154
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 3: and they wound up, you know, taking him off and

155
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 3: saying he was fine.

156
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, getting a tourt all shot.

157
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 3: Is not being fine, and so that's been like a

158
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 3: big conversation up here. The other thing that's been a

159
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 3: big conversation I watched up to the first half before

160
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 3: we hopped on here just to kind of make sure

161
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 3: that I wasn't seeing things that I wasn't in the

162
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 3: moment full of hooters and in a daze.

163
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:34,080
Speaker 2: But Will Campbell was terrible.

164
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 3: That was one of the worst performances that I've seen

165
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:39,199
Speaker 3: from him all season.

166
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 2: On him and Drake both, but it starts with Will Campbell.

167
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,200
Speaker 3: The other big story up here has been that he

168
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,959
Speaker 3: had just a disaster of a game and declined to

169
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 3: speak to the media last night. So it seems like

170
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 3: things are not all peachy Keene up here at the moment,

171
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:59,199
Speaker 3: which you knew they would be, but in ways that Drake.

172
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 1: I saw an interview with him in the national media.

173
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,679
Speaker 1: Is there a specific sector of the media that he declined.

174
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,439
Speaker 2: Will Campbell declined the Will Campbell.

175
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, sorry, yeah, uh no, he was You're right,

176
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,079
Speaker 1: he was terrible. The fact that guard like he is

177
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 1: a guard, the fact that he that May got sacked

178
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:19,439
Speaker 1: six times, and Will Campbell couldn't block a tissue box

179
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 1: last night, and I and I still couldn't get home

180
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 1: on DeMarcus Lawrence to record a sack was a little

181
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 1: bit depressing.

182
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 3: I know, I tailed you on that one. That was

183
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 3: that was very depressing considering everything.

184
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 1: Oh everybody else got involved. Don't worry. We had Devin

185
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 1: Witherspoon sacks and all of that stuck you. How much

186
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 1: of the lack of offensive firepower that we saw from

187
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,439
Speaker 1: New England do you put on the injury that we

188
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: we tried to kind of brush under the rug.

189
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 4: I mean, here, here's a rebuttal to that, though, is

190
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 4: that to what kend was saying, may look like he

191
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 4: looked against all of the top five defenses he faced

192
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,200
Speaker 4: in the playoffs. He's been horrible all playoffs and he's

193
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 4: horrible again. So and on this there was another step

194
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,599
Speaker 4: up in class as far as the opposing defense that

195
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 4: he faced. So he was he was terrible literally from

196
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,440
Speaker 4: start to finish in the playoffs again when he finally

197
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 4: had a face top defenses. So yeah, I there's there's

198
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:18,560
Speaker 4: definitely questions moving forward about you know, he was inching

199
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,560
Speaker 4: towards everyone saying that he might be a top five

200
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 4: quarterback in the league. We might have rushed the judgment

201
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 4: and in the end, the schedule one, the schedule arguers

202
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 4: all were proven right.

203
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,440
Speaker 3: And how much of his struggles in the postseason do

204
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,559
Speaker 3: you think are related to him being hurt though, or

205
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 3: just the step up in class?

206
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 4: I mean, what was he hurt in the.

207
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 3: People are saying it's been for a few weeks now.

208
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 1: I just figured it was the weather. You know that

209
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 1: I was willing to dismiss the lack of productivity because

210
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 1: the guy was playing in blizzards for two.

211
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:54,679
Speaker 2: Thirds of where I was at.

212
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 4: I mean, there's if you can't put all on him either.

213
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 4: The offensive line is still a problem. The wide receivers

214
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 4: aren't elite at getting separation. But you cannot not come

215
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 4: away from watching him in the postseason and say, like

216
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,560
Speaker 4: he was missing wide open guys. He looked frazzled in

217
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:18,720
Speaker 4: the pocket. His lack of pocket presence and awareness was

218
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 4: evident from the start. I mean, he did not look

219
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:28,840
Speaker 4: comfortable once under pressure since the Chargers game in the

220
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 4: first round. So yeah, there's and if you look, there's

221
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:36,680
Speaker 4: a clear difference in who the Pats faced during the

222
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:40,679
Speaker 4: regular season, the defenses they faced versus the playoffs, and

223
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 4: Drake May's production fell off a cliff, and it doesn't.

224
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,080
Speaker 4: You can't blame at all on him. But I also

225
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 4: find it amazing that Josh McDaniels has now been on

226
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 4: the offensive staff of ten teams that have made a

227
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 4: Super Bowl since two thousand and they've scored a total

228
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 4: of three points in the first quarter. Three points in

229
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 4: ten Super Bowls.

230
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 2: That's a great scott like that.

231
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 4: It's embarrassing. They came up with nothing. You have two

232
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 4: weeks to prepare. There was nothing creative. There was You

233
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:18,080
Speaker 4: didn't try to, you know, get your wide receivers involved

234
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 4: in the run game, try a trick play here or there,

235
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 4: come up with something different schematically and said just drop

236
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,080
Speaker 4: Dre Drake may back against this defense and hope and

237
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 4: pray that that what did they They didn't come up

238
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 4: with anything creative over the tw weeks and that's but

239
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 4: it's pretty crazy. Twenty years, ten super Bowls, twenty five years,

240
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,319
Speaker 4: ten Superls, three first quarter points.

241
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 1: It's unfortunate that we don't have a game next week

242
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,320
Speaker 1: because the Patriots would be a great bet. After getting

243
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,960
Speaker 1: blown out. This would be a pretty un brand for

244
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 1: the podcast to go back into the Patriots. Well next year, though,

245
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,199
Speaker 1: you know, you've got that trend that you can follow

246
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 1: teams coming off of a Super Bowl loss that really

247
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 1: struggle and Kansas City was the latest example of that

248
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 1: this year. The Patriots early on next year could be

249
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 1: a really strong fade candidate. So keep that in your

250
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:10,680
Speaker 1: back pocket.

251
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:14,559
Speaker 4: For next year. Everything went. Look, it's not a given

252
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 4: that you're going to get back to the super Bowl.

253
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,200
Speaker 4: Like if I think about all the quarterbacks that really

254
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,319
Speaker 4: good quarterbacks that have only made one Super Bowl, some

255
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 4: have never made any super Bowls. In order to get

256
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 4: to a super Bowl unless you're like the elite of

257
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 4: the elite, and a lot of times to get to

258
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 4: a super Bowl, you need a number of things to

259
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 4: break your way, which they did for the most part

260
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 4: with the Patriots. It was injuries, the sket they were

261
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,559
Speaker 4: healthy for most of the year, They had a last

262
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 4: place schedule that ended up being the easiest of any

263
00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:47,360
Speaker 4: team this century. And then in the playoffs they get,

264
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 4: you know, a backup quarterback in the ANFC Championship game.

265
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,480
Speaker 4: You have all of the elite quarterbacks in the AFC

266
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 4: were taken out or didn't make the playoffs. This was

267
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,560
Speaker 4: every single thing broke the Patriots away. This year for

268
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 4: them to get to the super Bowl next year, Guess what,

269
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 4: you got a first place schedule. You now have a

270
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,920
Speaker 4: target on your back. You're probably not gonna have as

271
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 4: good of injury luck, and I doubt that they get

272
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,000
Speaker 4: back there next year. So this was the year and

273
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 4: they got to the super Bowl, but they took credits

274
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 4: them for taking advantage of the schedule. But you're not

275
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 4: gonna get Jarrett Stidham in the AFC Championship Game ever again.

276
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 4: And now you have a first place schedule and things

277
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 4: are going to get much more difficult for the Patriots

278
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 4: next year.

279
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 1: Usually after a team wins the Super Bowl, we just

280
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 1: automatically install them as the favorites and somewhat overwhelmingly. And

281
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:41,880
Speaker 1: it doesn't feel like that is going to be the

282
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 1: case this year. I do believe they are tied with

283
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 1: the Rams. Yeah, they're both at plus nine p fifty

284
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 1: to win the Super Bowl next year are the Seattle Seahawks.

285
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 1: But typically when you see this team that's they go

286
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 1: through this run in the playoffs and they hoist the Lombardi,

287
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 1: there's that conversation the next of man, like, who's gonna

288
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 1: beat this team next year? Is there a dynasty forming

289
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 1: and all of that, and it doesn't feel like this

290
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,880
Speaker 1: is that year. Definitely for the Patriots as being on

291
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 1: the losing side, but for Seattle as well.

292
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 3: Kendra, I was gonna say, I hate to continue to

293
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 3: be a Pats troll, but the second the total comes

294
00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 3: out for next year, I might be on the under

295
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 3: Like I, you can't tell me that there's not going

296
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 3: to be some sort of one weird regression. There's no

297
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 3: way they're gonna spend money. I just I don't see

298
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 3: them going out and actually doing the right thing by

299
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 3: getting a new left tackle and moving Will Campbell to guard, like,

300
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 3: I just don't see them doing the right things to

301
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 3: get better, and their schedule is about to get a

302
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 3: lot more difficult.

303
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 4: Probably I would think it's do you know I blame

304
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:48,800
Speaker 4: for the I mean that Super Bowl was horrendous, by

305
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:50,520
Speaker 4: the way, one of the worst goals I've ever watched.

306
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 1: It was terrible. I turned it off with two minutes

307
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 1: to go. I don't think I've ever turned to Super

308
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 1: Bowl up if not.

309
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 4: Nothing happened for the first like the if what was

310
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 4: the most memorable play of the first half.

311
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 3: I have to say it got to a point where

312
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 3: we were all sitting in Hooters, which was they sold out,

313
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 3: packed out Hooters, by the way, and it was so

314
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 3: silent that we could hear them doing dishes in the back.

315
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 4: That's amazing. What was the first Oh, I also had

316
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 4: zero zero first quarter tie, which was amazing. I ended

317
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 4: at three nothing h even the Patriots had they kicked

318
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 4: the touch back to start the game, Like, you couldn't

319
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 4: you let them start the thirty five? So but what

320
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 4: was the most memorable play of the first half?

321
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 3: That punt that the Seahawks punter had that it was

322
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 3: an absolute bomb. Yeah.

323
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 1: I agree with our producer David Payne and our private

324
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 1: puts national anthem to flyover epic ten out of ten. Yeah.

325
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 4: But do you know I blamed all this. I mean

326
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 4: partly it's John Harball for not for kneeling down. Uh

327
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 4: he could have if he just ran a play and

328
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 4: then kick the field goal, the Ravens could have been here.

329
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,920
Speaker 4: But I blame the Bills. It's always the Bill's fault.

330
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:09,400
Speaker 4: The Bills number one, if they just they get that

331
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 4: dumb fourth down stop when Trevor Lawrence's shin hits and

332
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,359
Speaker 4: then they have to beat the Jags, which is fine.

333
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:17,879
Speaker 4: I mean I think the Jags. If the Jags won

334
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:19,159
Speaker 4: that game, I think the Jags were gonna go to.

335
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:21,240
Speaker 3: The You know who didn't look this shitty against the

336
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 3: Seattle Seahawks this season, the Jacksonville Jaguars bit they were

337
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 3: really good against.

338
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 4: I think the Jags were gonna go to the super

339
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 4: Bowl and they would have given us their offense would

340
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,680
Speaker 4: have at least looked confident, and Liam Cohen would have

341
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:37,680
Speaker 4: had an actual game plan. Yeah, that was whatever Bills.

342
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 4: The Bills would have put up put up a fight

343
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 4: against Seattle. So the Bills whatever, they beat Jacksonville. We

344
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,399
Speaker 4: all hated that was the matchup that we put the

345
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 4: Bills in.

346
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 3: Jags, And what's the point of them winning their division

347
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,440
Speaker 3: if they're gonna pull the Bills Like that's such bull crap.

348
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:53,680
Speaker 2: We seriously need to get to a point where it's

349
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 2: like a school yard pick them.

350
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 3: You get the best in the conference, you pick who

351
00:17:58,080 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 3: you want to play first, and then the second place

352
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:00,400
Speaker 3: gets a pick.

353
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 2: That's the only way that this is going to solve.

354
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 2: And this bullshit's gonna end.

355
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:09,159
Speaker 4: But let's yes, the Jags got screwed, so but the

356
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 4: Bills win. Okay, that's fine. So then they go to

357
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:17,399
Speaker 4: Denver and not only did they lose, they took the

358
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 4: Broncos right to the brink. So Bonnicks gets hurt and

359
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,679
Speaker 4: is out for the year. So then Jared Stidham has

360
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:27,879
Speaker 4: to start in the AFC Championship game, and that's how

361
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 4: we get the Patriots in the Super Bowl. So in

362
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 4: the end, it's always the Bill's fault.

363
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 1: Yes, And to your point about the first half, let

364
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,639
Speaker 1: me just run through the play by play here. Field

365
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 1: goal for Seattle, punt, punt, punt, punt, punt, field goal, punt, punt, punt,

366
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,400
Speaker 1: field goal, end of half. That was the first half

367
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:51,160
Speaker 1: of the Super Bowl.

368
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:51,840
Speaker 4: Amazing.

369
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 1: That is what we witnessed last night.

370
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,440
Speaker 4: And had a long halftime. So and then the third

371
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,879
Speaker 4: it felt so long. Yeah, in the third quarter, the

372
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 4: lead up to the Super Bowl two is so long,

373
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,959
Speaker 4: Like the afternoon, the three thirty, the six thirty is

374
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 4: it feels like it's like ten hours, so you're waiting

375
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 4: for the game and then nothing pretty much happened until

376
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:20,120
Speaker 4: like eight thirty at night. So it was that that'll

377
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 4: go down as one of the worst Super Bowls I

378
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 4: can ever remember. Not then, and then I also lost

379
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,199
Speaker 4: every single bet that I made, So a little, nice

380
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:28,120
Speaker 4: little cherry on top.

381
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, a great, great way to end the season.

382
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:31,680
Speaker 4: In the fourth quarters, like all my bets were looking

383
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,520
Speaker 4: okay in the most boring game ever. So I was like, well,

384
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 4: at least some of my bets look good and then

385
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 4: of course everything blows up in the fourth quarter. So

386
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 4: I will I will not look back fondly on the

387
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 4: Super Bowl or my betting performance.

388
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 1: I will never rewatch this one. I can guarantee that.

389
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,200
Speaker 1: One other note, I know that he wasn't ever gonna

390
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,919
Speaker 1: win MVP in this game because he didn't need to

391
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 1: be elite last night. And that is the quarterback of

392
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,240
Speaker 1: the Seahawks, Sam Darnold, who go was completely overlooked in

393
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:02,480
Speaker 1: our entire dialogue here.

394
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 2: He wanted to throw a pick.

395
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:07,600
Speaker 1: So oh, he was definitely trying. He wanted to get

396
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 1: involved in that pick parlay that we had. But if

397
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 1: you look at the waves of impact that that Darnald

398
00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 1: acquisition created, it's pretty outstanding. So the Seahawks won a

399
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. That's first and foremost. The Vikings fired their

400
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:25,199
Speaker 1: general manager. The Raiders wound up with the Gino Smith.

401
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 1: They were so bad with him they get the number

402
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 1: one overall pick, which is going to be Fernando Mendoza,

403
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,359
Speaker 1: and then the Seahawks offensive coordinator becomes their new head coach.

404
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 1: And he admitted that in the postgame interview the catalyst

405
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 1: to all of this was Seattle choosing Darnald over Gino

406
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 1: is what set all of this into motion. It's just

407
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 1: amazing when you watch the ripple effect of Sam Darnold

408
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,280
Speaker 1: winding up with the Seattle Seahawks.

409
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 3: I put this in our notes, but him being the

410
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 3: first of his draft class quarterback wise to win a

411
00:20:55,840 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 3: Super Bowl between him Lamar, Josh Allen, and Josh Rosen, hilarious.

412
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:02,480
Speaker 2: Hilarious.

413
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:05,200
Speaker 3: By the way, I did see a really good meme

414
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 3: that someone sent in our group chat, and it was

415
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 3: like Sam Donald and this woman in the corner and

416
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 3: then like a person sitting in the back in a

417
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,120
Speaker 3: coup chair with a Jets hat on, and the girl

418
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 3: is like, is this okay?

419
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,560
Speaker 2: It's just the Jets in the back in the chair.

420
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,320
Speaker 2: I thought that that was so good.

421
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:29,720
Speaker 4: You mentioned Donald, and I mean, yeah, it's an important No,

422
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 4: I mean, who wasn't great in this?

423
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:32,440
Speaker 2: No, he was not great.

424
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,159
Speaker 4: He was actually pretty bad. I thought I mean, what

425
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 4: have you finished nineteen to thirty eight or two hundred yards?

426
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 4: I think the biggest storyline of the entire season and

427
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 4: of the Super Bowl. It was the microcosm of this season.

428
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:50,920
Speaker 4: Was you mentioned the decision to move on from Gino

429
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 4: and bringing Donald, which was important, but the decision to

430
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 4: move on from Pete Carroll and to go to Mike McDonald. Right,

431
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 4: this is a guy that won a Super Bowl, that

432
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:05,440
Speaker 4: was beloved in Seattle to make that sit that aggressive

433
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 4: decision to move on to new coach, and I think

434
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 4: that was the key storyline of the season. We've talked

435
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,640
Speaker 4: about this ad nausea, right, Ben Johnson, his impact not

436
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:20,399
Speaker 4: only to Chicago, but his loss and that impact to

437
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 4: Detroit and what happen with them. Liam Cohen not only

438
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 4: his impact on Jacksonville but how much Tampa missed him.

439
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:29,680
Speaker 4: And you can go on and on about these coaches

440
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 4: and the coaching changes, and then the most impactful of

441
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 4: all was McDonald going to Seattle and the defense that

442
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 4: he was able to craft and lead this team to

443
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 4: a Super Bowl. And it just shows the impact of coordinators,

444
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 4: coaches and change can have on an organization in just

445
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 4: one season. In the NFL, and then you look, I

446
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 4: think that's again going to be a huge storyline going

447
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 4: into next year. I didn't even mentioned. I mean, you

448
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 4: could talk about the Eagles right there, the offensive coordinator

449
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 4: mets that they had all year and how that ended

450
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,159
Speaker 4: up costing them. But you go into next year with

451
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:10,679
Speaker 4: ten new head coaches, right you have Lafleur at Arizona,

452
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:16,399
Speaker 4: Stefanski in Atlanta, Mint and Baltimore, Brady and Buffalo, Monkin

453
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:22,359
Speaker 4: and Cleveland, Kubiak in Vegas, Hafley and Miami, Harball in

454
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 4: New York, McCarthy and Pittsburgh, Sala and Tennessee, and then

455
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 4: you go on to all the coordinator changes. One of

456
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:32,879
Speaker 4: our jobs is going to be and I think this

457
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:36,200
Speaker 4: is going to be key to wind total betting futures

458
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:39,679
Speaker 4: is determining which one of those hires or handful of

459
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:44,639
Speaker 4: hires it's going to have the most positive and also

460
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,359
Speaker 4: the least positive or the most negative impact to that team.

461
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 2: And it's like the Lions effect from last year.

462
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, and we saw both of their coordinators leave and

463
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 3: they missed the postseason. You know, like that was the

464
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:58,639
Speaker 3: number one thing that I thought about when their win

465
00:23:58,760 --> 00:23:59,640
Speaker 3: total came out.

466
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:03,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, like Mike McDaniel going to the Chargers as a

467
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:08,160
Speaker 4: new offensive coordinator with their you know now healthy offensive line.

468
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,879
Speaker 4: How much impact does that have? There's so many storylines

469
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 4: and you can tell that NFL teams I think are

470
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 4: now being more aggressive when it comes to coaching changes

471
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 4: and moving on from guys and understanding the impact that

472
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:27,639
Speaker 4: coordinator moves, head coaching changes can have. And that was

473
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 4: extremely evident this season and ended up ending with a

474
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,040
Speaker 4: ended up leading to a super Bowl in Seattle because

475
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:34,640
Speaker 4: of McDonald.

476
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,119
Speaker 1: I think you may have just identified our first episode

477
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 1: theme in the off season is trying to track down

478
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,880
Speaker 1: what those coaching moves are. You detailed a lot of them,

479
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,400
Speaker 1: but figuring out how to value that going into next

480
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 1: season is going to be extremely valuable. We'll keep the

481
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 1: conversation rolling, but first a word from our very own

482
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:57,160
Speaker 1: Kendri Middleton.

Speaker 2: If your bet wins, the crown is yours?

493
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: All right, Kendra post super Bowl, load it up on

494
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 1: wings and Mazzarella sticks and Triump didn't even know Hooters

495
00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:31,399
Speaker 1: had that.

496
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 2: They're so good?

497
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:33,840
Speaker 1: What's on your mind?

498
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 4: What sell could you have been?

499
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:48,120
Speaker 3: All one Monaco not being the entrance song. He went

500
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,640
Speaker 3: with the song everybody thought he would open with, which

501
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:51,560
Speaker 3: is so boring.

502
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:53,639
Speaker 2: I was like disappointed in that.

503
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 3: I thought that the set for the halftime show was

504
00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,199
Speaker 3: very catered to the TV audience, which makes sense, like

505
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:01,240
Speaker 3: that's where as people are going to be watching. I

506
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:04,199
Speaker 3: expected more of the like Shakira style stage, but I

507
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 3: liked that it was interactive, which led me to I

508
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 3: know that you guys have been chronically online like myself,

509
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,639
Speaker 3: and we all saw that the bushes that were around

510
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 3: the set were actually people dressed as bushes. Could you

511
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 3: imagine being on a gummy dressed like a bush going

512
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 3: to do the Super Bowl halftime show?

513
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,119
Speaker 2: Because that is my personal dream.

514
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,720
Speaker 3: It gives like the Stanford you guys know the Stanford mascot,

515
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 3: how it's like a tree and it's a different person

516
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 3: from their band every week that has to go dress

517
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,120
Speaker 3: up as the tree and like dance around at their stuff.

518
00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 3: This is my dream, dreams to be a tree, To

519
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,400
Speaker 3: be a tree at the super Bowl halftime show off

520
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:47,480
Speaker 3: a gummy.

521
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:51,160
Speaker 1: Yes, I think she specifically said loaded on THHC while

522
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 1: also dressed as a tree is the specific time.

523
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,200
Speaker 2: Sometimes when I'm high in public, I get anxious.

524
00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:58,840
Speaker 3: But if I'm hiding in that and I get to

525
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 3: just stand there and vibe and listen to Bad Bunny

526
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:04,480
Speaker 3: and like not have actual, real human thoughts, that is

527
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:05,520
Speaker 3: so ideal.

528
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 4: I stopping you from doing that in your own house.

529
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 1: That's true, you could do that on the podcast We

530
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:11,360
Speaker 1: won't judge you.

531
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 4: Yeah.

532
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,919
Speaker 3: I do think that we should do a four twenty

533
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:17,119
Speaker 3: episode the Stressed is Trees.

534
00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:21,919
Speaker 1: I did. I did very minimal Bad Bunny research, And

535
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 1: by research, I mean just listening to a few of

536
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 1: his songs that were popular and either I didn't listen

537
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,160
Speaker 1: to them enough to recognize them, or he didn't play

538
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:32,119
Speaker 1: them last night.

539
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:37,640
Speaker 2: So he played is it anything, only.

540
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 1: Part of it. Stucky that Mia song. I was vibing

541
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 1: to that on Saturday and then he didn't even sing

542
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,640
Speaker 1: it right or did I miss it?

543
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 2: I don't what.

544
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 1: I'm not going to sing it here me me that one.

545
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:52,400
Speaker 2: I don't.

546
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 1: I don't know that's a song with Cardi B. I

547
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:56,119
Speaker 1: like it.

548
00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:00,480
Speaker 4: Oh, So, speaking of Cardi B, there's what what Evan?

549
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 4: Can you clarify? So there's a huge controversy on the

550
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 4: prediction markets with stage or not.

551
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:10,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I.

552
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:11,240
Speaker 1: Mean definitely on stage.

553
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 3: Yeah.

554
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 5: What's all I gotta say is I got paid out.

555
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,120
Speaker 5: I took no and there's more money in my account.

556
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 5: But it wasn't, So I think they're saying technically she wasn't.

557
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:24,880
Speaker 5: I really don't want to look into it more because

558
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:26,480
Speaker 5: I feel like they're going to catch me and they're

559
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 5: going to take my money away from me. So I

560
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 5: just want to leave it alone and move on to

561
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:30,960
Speaker 5: college basketball.

562
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:31,879
Speaker 1: I don't know.

563
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:34,639
Speaker 4: Was she not on stage?

564
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,520
Speaker 5: Was just I guess they're trying to say she like

565
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 5: wasn't a performer, or but I thought the bet was.

566
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 5: I think that like I had the Gaga bet that

567
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:46,240
Speaker 5: lost because she obviously was a performer, but Cardi b

568
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 5: I'm guessing that they said that she wasn't. And there

569
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 5: was a lot of people on a lot of different

570
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 5: shows who had action on that bet because they're like,

571
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 5: why would you be on stage? She's there with Stefan Diggs,

572
00:28:57,800 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 5: blah blah blah blah blah.

573
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 1: But was is that the specific wording of the bet?

574
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 1: Was it perform or appear on stage?

575
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 5: We read yeah, she did not perform, and I think

576
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:11,920
Speaker 5: that was the difference, but a.

577
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 1: Lot of.

578
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 3: Was that it was it had to be a performance. Also,

579
00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 3: I added into our notes that allegedly Cardi and Stefan

580
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:24,760
Speaker 3: Diggs broke up last night.

581
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 2: I did do the research. They both.

582
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 3: Unfollowed each other on Instagram, and.

583
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 2: Apparently he brought another.

584
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,360
Speaker 3: Girl back to his room last night after they all

585
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:43,440
Speaker 3: went out and she found out and freaked out, allegedly.

586
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 4: Which returning in the TMZ here, I will say, I

587
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 4: don't how much how liquid were those on stage bets

588
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:55,840
Speaker 4: on the prediction market? Seven? Yeah?

589
00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:00,160
Speaker 5: Very I mean there's so much volume. There was a

590
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:05,160
Speaker 5: a lot of money. To me like, oh yeah, of course.

591
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 4: I mean, listen, you know you used to be able

592
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,280
Speaker 4: to bet these things, you know, back in the day

593
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 4: before legalized down but you could I mean, what would

594
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 4: you could get like a fifty dollars bat down right

595
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 4: like correct? Which no, they're not, you're not. You don't

596
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:22,640
Speaker 4: have to worry about insider trading like there's but as

597
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:24,520
Speaker 4: these markets get more looking, I mean, how many people

598
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:28,480
Speaker 4: are involved in the actual production that are you know,

599
00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:32,440
Speaker 4: workers at the stadium that know all these things.

600
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 5: So Gago was Goago was definitely inside information because she

601
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,960
Speaker 5: was at like minus five hundred, minus six hundred, which

602
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:42,440
Speaker 5: made little sense, and she obviously a lot of people

603
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 5: obviously knew about that. But I believe me, like most

604
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 5: of that is definitely a little insidery, which you could understand.

605
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:56,280
Speaker 5: But this one just had a lot of controversy, which

606
00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 5: is obviously making the market more public, if that makes sense.

607
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 1: If I may, Evan, what motivated you to bet on

608
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 1: this in the first place?

609
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 5: Sitting there talking with my wife and a few other people,

610
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 5: and I was bored and I wanted to kind of

611
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:13,800
Speaker 5: diversify my portfolio. And during the Super Bowl and that

612
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,760
Speaker 5: was honestly the funny thing is on our stream for

613
00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 5: our playbook live show in the morning, I told everyone

614
00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 5: I had the no Gaga bet which lost, but failed

615
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 5: to tell people that I had that CARDI b bet,

616
00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 5: which now I guess won, and I've you know, I'm

617
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 5: taking that money and running.

618
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 2: This is shady.

619
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 3: I think I learned that I'm not going to bet

620
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 3: heavy on the super Bowl, Thanksgiving or Christmas next year.

621
00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:39,800
Speaker 3: I'm going to keep it the same as I always do.

622
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 2: I can't go hand for these anymore.

623
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 4: I hate I hate the super Bowl. I hate this

624
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 4: when as far any game during the whole year, the

625
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 4: super Bowl is one of my least favorite games, which

626
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 4: is crazy to say, but there's two weeks leading up

627
00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:59,120
Speaker 4: to one game you're so sick of talking about, like

628
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 4: I'm talking to as a as someone who does content,

629
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 4: you're so sick of talking about it, right, and then

630
00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 4: you have like the lead up to the game, and

631
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:10,920
Speaker 4: then there's the long halftime and it's just it's exhausting.

632
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 4: I'd like, I look, I'm more excited about a random,

633
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 4: you know, Tuesday night mac football game than the super Bowl.

634
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 1: So yeah, we just treated it so differently. I had

635
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:29,040
Speaker 1: twelve bets on this game. No what I'm saying, well,

636
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:30,960
Speaker 1: I would never have twelve. Yeah, it could be the

637
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 1: biggest Game of the week in Week six. I would

638
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,080
Speaker 1: never put twelve bets.

639
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 4: On again out in the super Bowl. I mean, you had,

640
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 4: that's part of it. That's part of the fun. I mean,

641
00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:40,880
Speaker 4: that's that's one of the that's part of the fun.

642
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 4: Like you, it's hard to find you're not gonna have

643
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:43,840
Speaker 4: like a huge edge on the side or total I

644
00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 4: don't think in the super Bowl at the end of

645
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:49,320
Speaker 4: the year. So uh yeah, I always did gen out

646
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:52,960
Speaker 4: and make a bunch of bets. That's part of the

647
00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:55,040
Speaker 4: fun of it, like sweating the props. But obviously I

648
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:58,120
Speaker 4: got everyone wrong, so maybe I shouldn't do that.

649
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like going out a winner. Did not happen here.

650
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:04,880
Speaker 1: All right, guys, let's plant our flag presented by DraftKings.

651
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:06,120
Speaker 1: The crown is yours.

652
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 2: M flag in a shut up, I'm trying to plant

653
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:11,080
Speaker 2: my flag here.

654
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 1: Okay, you're really planning your flag in that thing. Obviously,

655
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,760
Speaker 1: if we have no game next week, sadly to plant

656
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,120
Speaker 1: our flag on. But let's plant our flag for twenty

657
00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:24,640
Speaker 1: twenty six or for the champion of that we'll be

658
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty seven, whichever direction you guys want to

659
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 1: go on this. If you want to go Super Bowls.

660
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:32,600
Speaker 1: To quick tidbit on that Seattle, as I mentioned earlier,

661
00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 1: tied with the Rams at plus nine point fifty to

662
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 1: win the Bowl, followed by the Bills at eleven to one.

663
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 1: The Eagles, Ravens and the Patriots are next at thirteen

664
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 1: to one. Kendro, what are you looking at for twenty

665
00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:46,880
Speaker 1: twenty six?

666
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,320
Speaker 3: I didn't take this as a plant your flag for

667
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:52,840
Speaker 3: a Super Bowl situation. I took it as like a

668
00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:54,360
Speaker 3: plant your flag on a team that you think is

669
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 3: going to be a lot better next year. And it

670
00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 3: might be a little dead to say now, but I've

671
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 3: been saying it for quite some time, so I'm going

672
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:03,880
Speaker 3: to continue to lap on this. I think the New

673
00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:06,640
Speaker 3: York Giants are going to be sick. That defensive line

674
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 3: is baller. People like to make jokes that Jackson Dart

675
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 3: and Camp Scatabow are going to have the most electric

676
00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:14,600
Speaker 3: five year career ever. I totally agree. The coaching's going

677
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,080
Speaker 3: to help. Their draft positioning is going to help. I

678
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 3: think that the New York Giants are going to be

679
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 3: so good next year.

680
00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:25,200
Speaker 1: They clearly got a huge coaching upgrade. That's going to

681
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:26,800
Speaker 1: be one of the teams that we give a huge

682
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:29,280
Speaker 1: tick up to because of who they added. You mentioned

683
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:34,799
Speaker 1: the draft implications. They pick fifth in what.

684
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 2: Should be telling me a quarterback though exactly.

685
00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:40,080
Speaker 1: And it's a loaded class outside of the quarterback position,

686
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,000
Speaker 1: so that should help them as far as some of

687
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:44,759
Speaker 1: the skill positions go, or if they want to add

688
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:46,920
Speaker 1: another piece to a defense, that should be a lot better.

689
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:50,720
Speaker 1: I like that. Look that will be definitely be a team.

690
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 1: Where did they end up finishing. I guess they finished

691
00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:54,799
Speaker 1: in the last place in their division, So they're also

692
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:57,160
Speaker 1: going to be fortunate enough to get that easy schedule.

693
00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 1: So we saw how beneficial that can be. I like that,

694
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:02,360
Speaker 1: look stucky. What about you? Where will you plant your flag?

695
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,360
Speaker 1: Whether it's for the season, a team that you like,

696
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:05,239
Speaker 1: or the Super Bowl.

697
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:07,480
Speaker 4: I have no idea. I haven't even started to think

698
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 4: about or look it. Next year. I will plant my

699
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:13,560
Speaker 4: flag on Kansas beating Arizona tonight, handing them their first

700
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 4: loss in Lawrence. That's my that's my plant to flag

701
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 4: for today.

702
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:21,680
Speaker 1: Market what's the what's the line on that game?

703
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:26,520
Speaker 4: I think plat Kansas plus two at home and Daron

704
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 4: Peterson as long as he plays, I don't know. Sometimes

705
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:30,720
Speaker 4: they he doesn't play in the second half of games.

706
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 4: I think his his people call down and say, don't play.

707
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,920
Speaker 4: But he played like the entire game against Utah on Saturday.

708
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:40,000
Speaker 4: So but if he plays the whole game, Kansas beats

709
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,280
Speaker 4: Arizona tonight, that's my plan flag.

710
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,920
Speaker 1: I kind of like that idea of just planting a

711
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,399
Speaker 1: flag on something entirely different. I do have the heat

712
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 1: minus seven tonight, So if you want to go at

713
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:52,160
Speaker 1: the NBA route, I'm gonna go with the Falcons. I

714
00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 1: already place the bet on it seventy five to one.

715
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:55,640
Speaker 1: Now here's the thing.

716
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:03,279
Speaker 4: Literally, just stay on our quarterback like I.

717
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 3: Love you, but this is you are literally being like

718
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 3: you know what, tread on me, daddy and handing the

719
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:11,680
Speaker 3: sports book your wallet.

720
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:18,040
Speaker 1: I mean still, I still think position to NFC South. Yes,

721
00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 1: James Pierce did get arrested. It doesn't look good for

722
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:25,040
Speaker 1: him and his future. Ten and a half sacks last year. Uh,

723
00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:29,040
Speaker 1: their quarterback situation is in flux. But uh there what

724
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:31,400
Speaker 1: we go back to the coaching upgrade. I think they

725
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 1: get a massive coaching upgrade with Stefanski, and I love

726
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,280
Speaker 1: the talent on that team and I hate that division.

727
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 1: So this is just about carrying a seventy five to

728
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:44,440
Speaker 1: one ticket into the playoffs. That's the that's the flag

729
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:46,440
Speaker 1: plant right there, stuck. He looks like he wants to

730
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:48,000
Speaker 1: vomit on his sweater right now.

731
00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:50,920
Speaker 4: I mean, at least I don't go division. No one

732
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:52,640
Speaker 4: will let you down more than the Atlanta Falcons.

733
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 2: That's what I said when you put it in and

734
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 2: we talked about it. The first one, I was like,

735
00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:57,880
Speaker 2: why not just the division? And even that is dumb

736
00:36:57,880 --> 00:36:58,239
Speaker 2: ast shit.

737
00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:01,800
Speaker 1: Where the bron I think the Broncos are like eighteen

738
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:03,880
Speaker 1: to one. That might not be a bad idea for Jans.

739
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,319
Speaker 2: Might fuck around and win that division next year.

740
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:12,160
Speaker 4: Uh, tough division because everyone is just like the same,

741
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:14,759
Speaker 4: everyone's like you same.

742
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:20,120
Speaker 2: The most money I made with on that division were

743
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:20,600
Speaker 2: just like.

744
00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:23,800
Speaker 4: Middle class, like just buying for a promotion.

745
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 1: Another one that I think is interesting, So I mentioned

746
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:29,719
Speaker 1: the Broncos. What about the Chiefs at fifteen to one?

747
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:31,759
Speaker 1: That you are never going to get the Kansas City

748
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:34,480
Speaker 1: Chiefs any cheaper than that.

749
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:36,960
Speaker 3: So that's they're like, even though they have a better

750
00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:39,880
Speaker 3: draft position this year, they still are just too old

751
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:40,960
Speaker 3: and need to retool.

752
00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 2: Like, I don't think it's going to be this year.

753
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 3: I think if they're going to be a good team

754
00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,520
Speaker 3: again and make like a decent run, it's going to

755
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:48,640
Speaker 3: be next year. I get that the schedule they're gonna

756
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:51,120
Speaker 3: pull is probably going to be favorable this year, especially

757
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:54,239
Speaker 3: at those odds, but they just need to change too

758
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:56,680
Speaker 3: many old people over they are.

759
00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 1: I think they're going to get really aggressive in the

760
00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:00,279
Speaker 1: off season and they're gonna end up catch and some

761
00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:02,479
Speaker 1: hype when they do that, we're going.

762
00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:07,480
Speaker 4: To making a Falcon's super Bowl quick slip in the

763
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:10,160
Speaker 4: YouTube description because no one would ever click that. So

764
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:12,640
Speaker 4: I kind of agree that's fair.

765
00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:14,840
Speaker 1: You know what, maybe they're getting longer odds now.

766
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 3: That I was crazy for the Panthers though, So you

767
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:19,640
Speaker 3: know what, more power to your sister.

768
00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:22,839
Speaker 1: Thank you.

769
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 4: Who do you think is if you had to for

770
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:32,680
Speaker 4: your you get a free million dollars risk free if

771
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:37,880
Speaker 4: you name both super Bowl participants next year and you

772
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:45,319
Speaker 4: got to choose right now, nothing else obs Atlanta.

773
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:43,800
Speaker 1: And.

774
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,200
Speaker 4: So you're going to Atlanta, Chiefs, you go with?

775
00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:51,920
Speaker 1: We did. I didn't know. I didn't know we were

776
00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 1: getting I'm trying to make a million, I'm not trying.

777
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:55,680
Speaker 1: I didn't know we were getting a million dollars for

778
00:38:55,719 --> 00:39:00,160
Speaker 1: free here.

779
00:38:56,480 --> 00:39:00,880
Speaker 4: Change if you if you get right, who would you

780
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 4: go with?

781
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,760
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say the Ravens.

782
00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:08,720
Speaker 4: And trying to get on my good side?

783
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:13,359
Speaker 2: Was I on your bad side? No, I'm gonna say

784
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:18,080
Speaker 2: the Ravens and forty nine ers.

785
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:26,640
Speaker 4: Hmm, I'm gonna say the I want to say the Jags,

786
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:29,200
Speaker 4: but I'm gonna say Jags.

787
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,640
Speaker 3: Twitter's already going crazy with the logo of next year

788
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:35,399
Speaker 3: being handsaid Jags Cowboys, so that's what has.

789
00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:37,480
Speaker 2: Been running all over Jags Twitter this morning.

790
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:40,759
Speaker 4: This is tough because what's I don't I don't know

791
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:42,359
Speaker 4: what's gonna happen with the Rams. I want to say

792
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 4: the Rams, but.

793
00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:48,000
Speaker 1: They are the They have the shortest odds along with Seattle,

794
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:50,480
Speaker 1: so if you're just playing the odds game, the Rams

795
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:51,640
Speaker 1: would be the right choice.

796
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:54,240
Speaker 3: I also wanted to say the Rams, but I feel

797
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:56,280
Speaker 3: like Stafford, this was his last year.

798
00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,719
Speaker 2: Of like being old and good. Next year he might

799
00:39:58,760 --> 00:39:59,879
Speaker 2: just be like old and mid.

800
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:04,560
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm gonna answer the question. I'm curious to

801
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:07,160
Speaker 1: see where Stucky goes to. I just want to get

802
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:10,440
Speaker 1: this thought bubble popped here. I think Washington is going

803
00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 1: to be sneaky next year. They were so over hyped

804
00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:15,920
Speaker 1: going into this season. Jaydon Daniels is still a really

805
00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:18,880
Speaker 1: good quarterback. I think that that could be a team

806
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:22,839
Speaker 1: that's that returns to being on the rise. The Chargers are.

807
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:28,240
Speaker 3: Interesting because of this move dummy, who's a dummy, dan Quinn.

808
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,319
Speaker 4: Their defense is so old and slow. They need to

809
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:32,920
Speaker 4: they need to do a lot on the defensive side

810
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:38,239
Speaker 4: of the ball. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go Chargers Rams.

811
00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:42,120
Speaker 1: In l A and the Super Bowls and so.

812
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:50,719
Speaker 4: That's that's that's what I'm going with.

813
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,080
Speaker 3: All thirty seven of their fans would show.

814
00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 4: And I'm going I'm going Jags Rams.

815
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:58,560
