What they 85 00:04:01,108 --> 00:04:03,428 Speaker 6: did in the offseason was they got rid of a 86 00:04:03,468 --> 00:04:05,828 Speaker 6: whole bunch of guys that helped them to get to 87 00:04:05,988 --> 00:04:09,428 Speaker 6: those big games. They got rid of Drake Greenlaw, Javon Hargrave, 88 00:04:09,508 --> 00:04:13,228 Speaker 6: Malik Collins, Tarvarious World, Aaron Banks, Deebo, Samuel Tollano who falm. 89 00:04:13,268 --> 00:04:15,188 Speaker 7: Though they signed Brandon Nayuk, he. 90 00:04:15,108 --> 00:04:17,028 Speaker 6: Hasn't showed up yet and I hope he's okay. 91 00:04:17,108 --> 00:04:18,028 Speaker 7: That's a serious note. 92 00:04:18,068 --> 00:04:20,428 Speaker 6: Nick Votsa and Fred Warner this year, I are their 93 00:04:20,468 --> 00:04:21,788 Speaker 6: first round pick from last year. 94 00:04:21,868 --> 00:04:24,028 Speaker 7: I are Rob Pardy, George Kittle. 95 00:04:24,068 --> 00:04:26,148 Speaker 6: Whole bunch of guys have been hurt for a long 96 00:04:26,188 --> 00:04:26,868 Speaker 6: period of time. 97 00:04:27,628 --> 00:04:27,868 Speaker 7: Yeah. 98 00:04:27,868 --> 00:04:30,548 Speaker 6: If you were to tell me that sitting here today, 99 00:04:30,588 --> 00:04:32,428 Speaker 6: that if they were to win the next two games, 100 00:04:32,428 --> 00:04:35,348 Speaker 6: that they will be the number one seed in the NFC, 101 00:04:36,028 --> 00:04:36,908 Speaker 6: that's insane. 102 00:04:37,188 --> 00:04:38,508 Speaker 7: So when I'm thinking about. 103 00:04:38,308 --> 00:04:41,308 Speaker 6: The storyline, that is the most intriguing to me, and 104 00:04:41,348 --> 00:04:43,708 Speaker 6: it's the most fascinating to me. It's got to be 105 00:04:43,788 --> 00:04:46,708 Speaker 6: the team up there in the Bay Area. What Kyle 106 00:04:46,748 --> 00:04:49,388 Speaker 6: Shanahan and Robert Sala has been able to do this 107 00:04:49,508 --> 00:04:52,748 Speaker 6: year every single week, regardless of who is suiting up 108 00:04:52,788 --> 00:04:55,508 Speaker 6: and who has a helmet on, I think has been phenomenal. 109 00:04:55,588 --> 00:04:57,228 Speaker 7: So that Mike g is the thing. 110 00:04:57,468 --> 00:04:59,348 Speaker 6: Is it storyline that signs out to me out of 111 00:04:59,348 --> 00:04:59,988 Speaker 6: the NFC? 112 00:05:00,868 --> 00:05:04,788 Speaker 8: Yeah, Well, to me, I got two weeks left before 113 00:05:04,788 --> 00:05:06,508 Speaker 8: I have to make my call and my vote for 114 00:05:06,548 --> 00:05:09,508 Speaker 8: who the coach of the Year is it's Kyle Shanahan, Like, 115 00:05:09,588 --> 00:05:12,468 Speaker 8: you got two weeks the rest of the NFL to 116 00:05:12,508 --> 00:05:14,668 Speaker 8: dissuade me off of that one for everything that man 117 00:05:14,708 --> 00:05:16,388 Speaker 8: Tye just talked about. But I want to talk about 118 00:05:16,388 --> 00:05:17,548 Speaker 8: the Bears. That's the team that I'm looking at the 119 00:05:17,628 --> 00:05:19,668 Speaker 8: last two weeks because they're playing those forty nine ers 120 00:05:19,748 --> 00:05:22,388 Speaker 8: and then they're playing the Lions now looking like the 121 00:05:22,428 --> 00:05:24,548 Speaker 8: Lions might not make the playoffs at this point, but 122 00:05:24,588 --> 00:05:27,108 Speaker 8: there's still the Detroit Lions. There's still a tough team, 123 00:05:27,748 --> 00:05:29,748 Speaker 8: and they are still a team that beat the Bears 124 00:05:29,788 --> 00:05:32,028 Speaker 8: fifty two to twenty one early in the season. Now 125 00:05:32,028 --> 00:05:36,868 Speaker 8: the Bears win both of these games. Okay, you gotta 126 00:05:36,948 --> 00:05:40,228 Speaker 8: look back over the last third quarter of the season 127 00:05:40,708 --> 00:05:43,388 Speaker 8: and say, remember what we were saying about them earlier 128 00:05:43,388 --> 00:05:46,108 Speaker 8: in the year. They beat the Vikings, they beat the 129 00:05:46,388 --> 00:05:47,988 Speaker 8: I'm sorry, they beat the Cowboys, they beat the Raiders, 130 00:05:48,028 --> 00:05:50,108 Speaker 8: beat the Commanders, beat the Saints, and it's like, wait 131 00:05:50,148 --> 00:05:51,628 Speaker 8: till they see some real competition and. 132 00:05:51,628 --> 00:05:52,468 Speaker 7: They lost to the Ravens. 133 00:05:52,508 --> 00:05:54,668 Speaker 9: They were like, ha see, I told. 134 00:05:54,468 --> 00:05:57,148 Speaker 8: You, well, now I got wins against the Steelers. 135 00:05:57,508 --> 00:05:59,788 Speaker 9: They're going to the playoffs. But potentially winning the division. 136 00:06:00,748 --> 00:06:04,348 Speaker 8: The Eagles, the Packers almost the Packers twice. 137 00:06:04,468 --> 00:06:07,108 Speaker 9: Frankly, that first one was a close one. 138 00:06:06,948 --> 00:06:09,908 Speaker 8: And now the forty nine Ers and the Lions maybe 139 00:06:09,908 --> 00:06:13,748 Speaker 8: the close things out. I remember walking off that field 140 00:06:13,988 --> 00:06:16,748 Speaker 8: after the Black Friday game and hearing Jonathan Owens telling 141 00:06:16,748 --> 00:06:18,108 Speaker 8: his teammates that it's real now. 142 00:06:18,188 --> 00:06:19,148 Speaker 9: Huh, it's real now. 143 00:06:19,148 --> 00:06:22,028 Speaker 8: We just beat the defending Super Bowl champions. If they 144 00:06:22,028 --> 00:06:24,308 Speaker 8: win these last two games, you're going in. I know 145 00:06:24,388 --> 00:06:25,828 Speaker 8: some folks are still going to be like, ah, a 146 00:06:25,828 --> 00:06:29,188 Speaker 8: little skeptical, but to me, it's gonna be real, and 147 00:06:29,228 --> 00:06:30,748 Speaker 8: it's gonna be real because of what they've done over 148 00:06:30,788 --> 00:06:32,188 Speaker 8: the last quarter the third of the season. 149 00:06:32,668 --> 00:06:34,748 Speaker 4: I completely agree. And those are two good choices. 150 00:06:34,788 --> 00:06:37,108 Speaker 1: But I would go to the NFC playoff picture right 151 00:06:37,108 --> 00:06:39,148 Speaker 1: now because there's one logo that stands out to me 152 00:06:39,228 --> 00:06:41,668 Speaker 1: among all others. It's one that I've talked about going 153 00:06:41,708 --> 00:06:43,628 Speaker 1: back to the summer bits. Now everyone needs to be 154 00:06:43,668 --> 00:06:46,068 Speaker 1: talking about. I'll give you a clue. It's the biggest 155 00:06:46,068 --> 00:06:47,028 Speaker 1: logo on the screen. 156 00:06:47,468 --> 00:06:50,148 Speaker 4: We are sitting here on Christmas Eve in twenty twenty five. 157 00:06:50,348 --> 00:06:54,508 Speaker 1: And the Mike McDonald Sam donald Seahawks are the one. 158 00:06:54,908 --> 00:06:57,468 Speaker 1: They will be staying home and relaxing in the first 159 00:06:57,548 --> 00:06:58,468 Speaker 1: week of the playoffs. 160 00:06:58,468 --> 00:07:02,548 Speaker 4: If this continues. Unthinkable. Listen, you guys know this. I'm 161 00:07:02,628 --> 00:07:04,948 Speaker 4: very proud I picked them to win the division. They might. 162 00:07:05,708 --> 00:07:07,348 Speaker 4: I would not have had them as the one scene 163 00:07:07,348 --> 00:07:09,068 Speaker 4: in the NFC. No one would. I don't know if 164 00:07:09,108 --> 00:07:12,108 Speaker 4: anybody in the Seahawks would. And here's why they're intriguing. 165 00:07:12,748 --> 00:07:16,788 Speaker 1: Twelve and three, they beat the Rams, they're slain dragons. 166 00:07:16,828 --> 00:07:19,188 Speaker 1: They're going to have a buy at this continues. And 167 00:07:19,228 --> 00:07:20,508 Speaker 1: I still. 168 00:07:20,268 --> 00:07:23,148 Speaker 4: Feel like there's a palpable disbelief. I really do. And 169 00:07:23,188 --> 00:07:23,828 Speaker 4: I know why. 170 00:07:24,348 --> 00:07:27,508 Speaker 1: It's because last year's vikings. It's sitting right there, and 171 00:07:27,548 --> 00:07:29,308 Speaker 1: that's what we do as sports fans. We look at 172 00:07:29,308 --> 00:07:32,268 Speaker 1: what we know, and last year we know that Sam 173 00:07:32,308 --> 00:07:34,428 Speaker 1: Donald was on a very good team with a very 174 00:07:34,508 --> 00:07:36,708 Speaker 1: very good record, and then it just all fell out 175 00:07:36,708 --> 00:07:40,228 Speaker 1: of its face. And listen, Sam Donald was incredible at the 176 00:07:40,308 --> 00:07:42,588 Speaker 1: end of that Rams game. He made some big mistakes 177 00:07:42,588 --> 00:07:44,508 Speaker 1: at other points in that game. And there's I think 178 00:07:44,548 --> 00:07:46,628 Speaker 1: a belief for me, if you just turn on a 179 00:07:46,628 --> 00:07:49,748 Speaker 1: Seahawks game, that Sam Donald might mess this thing up, 180 00:07:49,988 --> 00:07:52,308 Speaker 1: maybe in the wildcard round if they even play in 181 00:07:52,348 --> 00:07:54,108 Speaker 1: the wildcard round, which they likely won't. 182 00:07:54,148 --> 00:07:54,988 Speaker 4: It this continues. 183 00:07:55,188 --> 00:07:57,788 Speaker 1: So I just think it's very interesting that it's this incredible, 184 00:07:57,828 --> 00:07:59,868 Speaker 1: cool story that is happening right in front of us 185 00:07:59,868 --> 00:08:02,468 Speaker 1: and that none of us saw. And I hate to 186 00:08:02,508 --> 00:08:04,708 Speaker 1: say it, I still believe that there is is a 187 00:08:04,788 --> 00:08:07,908 Speaker 1: disbelief in the quarterback in the big games. Once you 188 00:08:07,948 --> 00:08:10,228 Speaker 1: get into those playoff games and the Seahawks are playing 189 00:08:10,228 --> 00:08:13,388 Speaker 1: against you name it Philly or La again or Chicago 190 00:08:13,468 --> 00:08:16,028 Speaker 1: or whoever it may be, that still it's. 191 00:08:15,868 --> 00:08:16,468 Speaker 4: Not going to happen. 192 00:08:16,548 --> 00:08:18,828 Speaker 1: In fact, I mean, they got business this week, So 193 00:08:19,348 --> 00:08:20,268 Speaker 1: watch the Seahawks. 194 00:08:20,348 --> 00:08:21,988 Speaker 4: It's very cool that they are where they are. 195 00:08:22,428 --> 00:08:24,108 Speaker 1: I hope they can continue doing it, but I know 196 00:08:24,148 --> 00:08:25,908 Speaker 1: there's many many people who don't think they will. 197 00:08:26,228 --> 00:08:28,628 Speaker 2: Conflict of interest for me though, listening to Kyle talk 198 00:08:28,668 --> 00:08:31,428 Speaker 2: about the Seahawks because they have to go to Carolina 199 00:08:31,508 --> 00:08:34,108 Speaker 2: this weekend and take on the Panthers. Guys, simplest path 200 00:08:34,148 --> 00:08:36,668 Speaker 2: for the Seahawks to retain that number one overall seed 201 00:08:36,948 --> 00:08:39,068 Speaker 2: is to win out. They'd win the NFC West, they'd 202 00:08:39,068 --> 00:08:41,308 Speaker 2: beat the number one overall seed. But the Panthers are 203 00:08:41,348 --> 00:08:44,148 Speaker 2: great at home. They beat teams the Rams came to town, 204 00:08:44,228 --> 00:08:44,748 Speaker 2: they beat them. 205 00:08:44,828 --> 00:08:46,508 Speaker 3: The Seahawks go to go there this weekend. 206 00:08:46,708 --> 00:08:49,668 Speaker 2: There is a time now where the Panthers could be 207 00:08:49,708 --> 00:08:52,948 Speaker 2: hosting a playoff game for the first time since I 208 00:08:52,988 --> 00:08:55,508 Speaker 2: think twenty seventeen was the last time Carolina. 209 00:08:55,148 --> 00:08:55,428 Speaker 3: Was in it. 210 00:08:55,468 --> 00:08:58,308 Speaker 2: So, Kyle, we talked a lot about the Carolina Panthers 211 00:08:58,348 --> 00:09:01,428 Speaker 2: this summer, Bryce Young, we constantly are bellowing, let. 212 00:09:01,468 --> 00:09:04,428 Speaker 3: Us love you.

I don't see those people, but I don't know. 238 00:10:01,188 --> 00:10:02,028 Speaker 4: I got to feel when I. 239 00:10:01,988 --> 00:10:04,748 Speaker 1: Was sitting there saying, might do this, might do they 240 00:10:04,748 --> 00:10:05,908 Speaker 1: were kind of not in their heads. 241 00:10:05,908 --> 00:10:08,628 Speaker 4: God, I don't know you know what I'm talking about. 242 00:10:09,228 --> 00:10:13,188 Speaker 3: Come on, no, no, don't do that, Kyle, don't do 243 00:10:13,308 --> 00:10:15,228 Speaker 3: that to us.

I couldn't see them in that shot, 248 00:10:21,748 --> 00:10:23,228 Speaker 8: but I'm sure they're there. 249 00:10:25,308 --> 00:10:26,148 Speaker 9: But Jamie, you did what? 250 00:10:26,228 --> 00:10:26,708 Speaker 7: Hey they are? 251 00:10:26,828 --> 00:10:28,628 Speaker 9: I see an outline of a shadowy. 252 00:10:30,188 --> 00:10:34,308 Speaker 8: There's page, hey, high page Merry Christmas. Hope you get 253 00:10:34,348 --> 00:10:36,268 Speaker 8: everything you want this year. I just want to give 254 00:10:36,268 --> 00:10:37,588 Speaker 8: the Panthers some love because you tee us up. We 255 00:10:37,628 --> 00:10:39,068 Speaker 8: want to give the Panthers some love. Here's what I 256 00:10:39,068 --> 00:10:41,468 Speaker 8: love about the Panthers. Dave Canalis has got them like 257 00:10:41,668 --> 00:10:44,988 Speaker 8: manageable second and third downs. When I watched the Panthers 258 00:10:45,028 --> 00:10:48,188 Speaker 8: and when they're when they're clicking, they're not behind the sticks. 259 00:10:48,228 --> 00:10:51,748 Speaker 8: They're getting those efficient plays on first down. The offensive line. 260 00:10:51,828 --> 00:10:54,588 Speaker 8: We talked to Austin Corbin about this yesterday. Ten different combinations. 261 00:10:54,628 --> 00:10:57,108 Speaker 8: They're getting the push there, which allows you then to 262 00:10:57,148 --> 00:11:00,148 Speaker 8: get into second and five, second and four, and all 263 00:11:00,188 --> 00:11:02,348 Speaker 8: of a sudden, the entire game, the entire complexion of 264 00:11:02,348 --> 00:11:04,948 Speaker 8: the game changes. I think they're playing really smart, really 265 00:11:05,028 --> 00:11:09,228 Speaker 8: sound football, and Tampa Bay made the mistakes. Carolina did 266 00:11:09,228 --> 00:11:10,588 Speaker 8: not super impressive. 267 00:11:10,868 --> 00:11:12,348 Speaker 9: My wish. By the way, a couple of weeks ago 268 00:11:12,388 --> 00:11:12,988 Speaker 9: we talked about this. 269 00:11:13,028 --> 00:11:13,708 Speaker 7: What was our wish. 270 00:11:13,868 --> 00:11:17,748 Speaker 8: My wish was two games between the Panthers with some fireworks. 271 00:11:17,788 --> 00:11:19,868 Speaker 8: This was a good one week eighteen. I want to 272 00:11:19,868 --> 00:11:20,748 Speaker 8: see it come back around. 273 00:11:20,788 --> 00:11:21,268 Speaker 7: So I need the. 274 00:11:21,548 --> 00:11:25,308 Speaker 8: Buccaneers to beat the Dolphins or frankly, the Panthers to lose. 275 00:11:25,348 --> 00:11:27,188 Speaker 8: I want to set up a week eighteam between these teams. 276 00:11:27,188 --> 00:11:27,868 Speaker 9: I'm excited for. 277 00:11:29,308 --> 00:11:31,588 Speaker 2: All Right, enough with the NFC, put you to bed. 278 00:11:31,588 --> 00:11:33,468 Speaker 3: We got to focus on the AFC. 279 00:11:33,028 --> 00:11:35,228 Speaker 2: So the Steelers for example, because we're going to look 280 00:11:35,268 --> 00:11:37,748 Speaker 2: at the whole conference, but let's look at the American 281 00:11:37,788 --> 00:11:40,188 Speaker 2: Football Conference and the Pittsburgh Steelers right now. They can 282 00:11:40,228 --> 00:11:42,828 Speaker 2: clinch the AFC North this weekend with a win over 283 00:11:42,868 --> 00:11:46,268 Speaker 2: the Browns or a Ravens lost to the Packers on 284 00:11:46,388 --> 00:11:50,388 Speaker 2: Saturday night. So yesterday, a fired up Mike Tomlin spoke 285 00:11:50,428 --> 00:11:54,028 Speaker 2: about the fight that his team has from Sunday's win 286 00:11:54,148 --> 00:11:54,988 Speaker 2: against the Lions. 287 00:11:56,588 --> 00:11:59,468 Speaker 12: Just a noe blank component in our collective at the 288 00:11:59,548 --> 00:12:01,948 Speaker 12: end of the game on the short field and just 289 00:12:01,988 --> 00:12:06,588 Speaker 12: fighting down in and down out. Significant is certainly't easy. 290 00:12:07,268 --> 00:12:10,188 Speaker 12: We absorbed some penalties and so forth, but that's just 291 00:12:10,228 --> 00:12:13,108 Speaker 12: a component of play. I just think largely, man, our 292 00:12:13,108 --> 00:12:16,708 Speaker 12: guys cut their eyelids off, man and didn't blink and 293 00:12:16,748 --> 00:12:19,748 Speaker 12: stayed in the fight. And sometimes standing in the fight 294 00:12:19,828 --> 00:12:21,868 Speaker 12: is probably the biggest asset in your hip pocket. 295 00:12:23,028 --> 00:12:25,948 Speaker 2: Cut your eyelids off, Just cut them off, everybody and 296 00:12:26,028 --> 00:12:28,908 Speaker 2: stare at these AFC teams still fighting for the one seat. 297 00:12:29,108 --> 00:12:32,148 Speaker 2: There was four on the NFC NFC side. Look at 298 00:12:32,188 --> 00:12:34,548 Speaker 2: all those names. I'm not gonna list them off too many. 299 00:12:35,068 --> 00:12:38,388 Speaker 2: Just just drink it in on this Christmas Eve. All 300 00:12:38,468 --> 00:12:40,788 Speaker 2: those teams can still be a one seed. Guys, Mansai 301 00:12:40,988 --> 00:12:43,788 Speaker 2: AFC storyline that attrieuts you most in the final two weeks. 302 00:12:43,668 --> 00:12:44,348 Speaker 3: Of the regular season. 303 00:12:44,348 --> 00:12:45,548 Speaker 6: I want you to look at number two in New 304 00:12:45,548 --> 00:12:46,268 Speaker 6: England Patriots. 305 00:12:46,948 --> 00:12:48,068 Speaker 7: So yesterday we did. 306 00:12:48,148 --> 00:12:51,788 Speaker 6: We had the distinct privilege of announcing the Pro Bowl 307 00:12:51,828 --> 00:12:56,268 Speaker 6: wide receivers. Yeah right. Do you know that the Patriots 308 00:12:56,348 --> 00:12:59,468 Speaker 6: passing offense is a number one passing offense in the AFC. 309 00:12:59,708 --> 00:13:02,668 Speaker 6: They are the number four overall passing offense in the NFL, 310 00:13:03,228 --> 00:13:05,828 Speaker 6: Yet none of those wide receips are in the Pro Bowl. 311 00:13:06,268 --> 00:13:08,068 Speaker 7: That's how good that offense is. 312 00:13:08,428 --> 00:13:12,948 Speaker 6: They're so balanced you as a defender, the amount of 313 00:13:13,068 --> 00:13:14,428 Speaker 6: yards that they're putting up. 314 00:13:14,508 --> 00:13:17,268 Speaker 7: There is no go to wide receiver, there is no go. 315 00:13:17,188 --> 00:13:20,628 Speaker 6: To pass catcher. And when you don't have a tendency offensively, 316 00:13:21,108 --> 00:13:23,548 Speaker 6: it is really hard to scheme against you because I 317 00:13:23,628 --> 00:13:26,468 Speaker 6: can't roll coverage to any old wide receiver. I don't 318 00:13:26,508 --> 00:13:28,188 Speaker 6: know if Stevoon Diggs is going to go off with 319 00:13:28,268 --> 00:13:29,908 Speaker 6: you did against the Ravens the other night. 320 00:13:30,188 --> 00:13:31,788 Speaker 7: I don't know if Booty is going to go off. 321 00:13:31,828 --> 00:13:33,548 Speaker 6: I don't know if Pop Douglas is I don't know 322 00:13:33,548 --> 00:13:35,628 Speaker 6: if mccollins mc collins is going to go off. 323 00:13:35,668 --> 00:13:36,268 Speaker 7: I don't know. 324 00:13:36,668 --> 00:13:38,348 Speaker 6: All I know is number ten is going to throw 325 00:13:38,388 --> 00:13:39,868 Speaker 6: for a lot of yards and he's going to throw 326 00:13:39,908 --> 00:13:40,948 Speaker 6: for a lot of touchdowns. 327 00:13:41,068 --> 00:13:42,908 Speaker 7: Because they are the best passing. 328 00:13:42,588 --> 00:13:46,548 Speaker 6: Offense in the AFC and the number four overall passing offense. 329 00:13:46,228 --> 00:13:46,948 Speaker 7: In the NFL. 330 00:13:47,348 --> 00:13:49,988 Speaker 6: Yet none of their wide receivers made it to the 331 00:13:50,028 --> 00:13:50,468 Speaker 6: Pro Bowl. 332 00:13:50,508 --> 00:13:51,348 Speaker 7: That's how great they are. 333 00:13:51,388 --> 00:13:54,348 Speaker 8: Mike Gi, I don't know if Booty's going to go 334 00:13:54,388 --> 00:13:56,548 Speaker 8: off either, man Ty, you hope for it. 335 00:13:57,108 --> 00:13:59,748 Speaker 9: You never really know, though, if Booty's going to go off. 336 00:13:59,748 --> 00:14:04,348 Speaker 9: You just hope that it's gonna be tonight. Anybody, nobody? Okay, good? 337 00:14:04,948 --> 00:14:07,188 Speaker 8: Is Kyle watching a Christmas story?

I can do it. 348 00:14:34,028 --> 00:14:36,788 Speaker 8: I want to introduce you, America to somebody. His name 349 00:14:36,828 --> 00:14:39,948 Speaker 8: is Grant Yudinsky. He's the offensive coordinator for the Jacksonville Jaguars. 350 00:14:40,028 --> 00:14:41,988 Speaker 8: Liam Cohen is getting the lion's share of the credit, 351 00:14:42,108 --> 00:14:44,628 Speaker 8: the Jaguars share of the credit down there, if you will, 352 00:14:44,828 --> 00:14:48,188 Speaker 8: But that is Grant Udinsky who just came to Jacksonville 353 00:14:48,228 --> 00:14:52,668 Speaker 8: from Minnesota, Jamie, and yes, he is a big. 354 00:14:52,468 --> 00:14:54,508 Speaker 9: Reason why the Jaguars are. 355 00:14:54,428 --> 00:14:57,908 Speaker 8: Going right now, Grand Youwdinsky in short order is going 356 00:14:57,988 --> 00:15:02,068 Speaker 8: to be at least a hot head coaching I don't 357 00:15:02,068 --> 00:15:03,348 Speaker 8: want to put the head coaching thing on it, but 358 00:15:03,348 --> 00:15:06,708 Speaker 8: at least a hot head coach candidate, perhaps as soon 359 00:15:06,788 --> 00:15:09,708 Speaker 8: as this year, and if not, he will be a 360 00:15:09,788 --> 00:15:13,268 Speaker 8: candidate to be an offensive play caller for another team 361 00:15:13,308 --> 00:15:16,468 Speaker 8: that hires let's say, a defensive minded head coach. He 362 00:15:16,628 --> 00:15:19,588 Speaker 8: was thought extremely highly of in Minnesota, which is why 363 00:15:19,588 --> 00:15:21,908 Speaker 8: he landed in Jacksonville. He's now thought of extremely highly 364 00:15:21,948 --> 00:15:24,948 Speaker 8: of in Jacksonville, which is why he is now potentially 365 00:15:24,988 --> 00:15:26,588 Speaker 8: going to be up for some jobs here in the 366 00:15:26,588 --> 00:15:28,948 Speaker 8: coming weeks. Now, let's go to the other side of 367 00:15:28,948 --> 00:15:31,588 Speaker 8: the ball. Anthony Capanelli, the defensive coordinator. Now he is 368 00:15:31,628 --> 00:15:34,068 Speaker 8: getting some shine because it's clear that he is running 369 00:15:34,228 --> 00:15:36,388 Speaker 8: the defensive side of things. You see the energy, you 370 00:15:36,428 --> 00:15:39,268 Speaker 8: see the enthusiasm, you see everything he's capable of. The 371 00:15:39,348 --> 00:15:41,388 Speaker 8: reason that I bring up both of these men right 372 00:15:41,428 --> 00:15:43,828 Speaker 8: now is you go, boy, what a great season for 373 00:15:43,868 --> 00:15:46,148 Speaker 8: the Jaguars, and maybe they'll win a playoff game and 374 00:15:46,148 --> 00:15:46,668 Speaker 8: then maybe. 375 00:15:46,508 --> 00:15:47,828 Speaker 9: They'll get bounced in the divisional round. 376 00:15:47,868 --> 00:15:50,308 Speaker 8: You'll say, oh, what a great start for Liam Cohen 377 00:15:50,348 --> 00:15:53,108 Speaker 8: and the Jaguars. I'm not so sure that both of 378 00:15:53,108 --> 00:15:55,428 Speaker 8: these men that have been so instrumental in what they're 379 00:15:55,468 --> 00:15:56,908 Speaker 8: doing this year are gonna be. 380 00:15:56,988 --> 00:15:58,268 Speaker 9: There in twenty twenty six. 381 00:15:58,428 --> 00:16:00,908 Speaker 8: I think Campanelli's gonna get some looks for a head 382 00:16:00,988 --> 00:16:03,548 Speaker 8: coaching job. So to me, if I'm the Jaguars, it's 383 00:16:03,548 --> 00:16:04,548 Speaker 8: not house money. 384 00:16:04,628 --> 00:16:05,748 Speaker 7: It's got to happen. Now. 385 00:16:06,028 --> 00:16:08,148 Speaker 8: You've got Trevor Lawrence in the prime of his career, 386 00:16:08,188 --> 00:16:10,348 Speaker 8: You've got things going well, You've got a record that 387 00:16:10,388 --> 00:16:11,948 Speaker 8: maybe a lot of folks don't believe in, but I 388 00:16:11,988 --> 00:16:13,628 Speaker 8: know that you believe in, and you're able to go 389 00:16:13,668 --> 00:16:16,748 Speaker 8: into some tough places like Denver a small market team 390 00:16:16,748 --> 00:16:18,148 Speaker 8: going into a mile how which by the way, was 391 00:16:18,148 --> 00:16:20,508 Speaker 8: not a knock from Sean Payton, but anyway, they use 392 00:16:20,548 --> 00:16:22,428 Speaker 8: it work for their advantage. If I'm the Jaguars, I'm 393 00:16:22,468 --> 00:16:24,188 Speaker 8: going for it now. I know the windows now. 394 00:16:24,348 --> 00:16:26,988 Speaker 1: You damn right, and they should and they might. I'm 395 00:16:27,068 --> 00:16:31,068 Speaker 1: gonna do a heavy, heavy zag here. And my AFC 396 00:16:31,148 --> 00:16:34,708 Speaker 1: storyline that intrigues me, nay fascinates me, is the New 397 00:16:34,748 --> 00:16:36,988 Speaker 1: York Jets. Do you guys know that the New York 398 00:16:37,068 --> 00:16:39,348 Speaker 1: Jets do not have an interception this year? They have 399 00:16:39,428 --> 00:16:43,588 Speaker 1: played fifteen games and their defense has not intercepted a pass. 400 00:16:43,908 --> 00:16:46,348 Speaker 1: This is an historic streak. 401 00:16:46,788 --> 00:16:48,068 Speaker 4: How is this possible? 402 00:16:48,468 --> 00:16:52,308 Speaker 1: The Jets have played against the Browns no interceptions. They 403 00:16:52,348 --> 00:16:55,068 Speaker 1: just played the Saints no interceptions. They play at the 404 00:16:55,108 --> 00:16:58,668 Speaker 1: Dolphins already once Tua leads the league in interceptions, and 405 00:16:58,708 --> 00:17:00,348 Speaker 1: the Jets couldn't have won. 406 00:17:00,468 --> 00:17:01,748 Speaker 4: Let's put this in perspective. 407 00:17:02,428 --> 00:17:06,948 Speaker 1: There are three players on the Buffalo Bill's defensive line 408 00:17:07,308 --> 00:17:11,268 Speaker 1: who have an interception this year. Three different d linemen 409 00:17:11,348 --> 00:17:15,028 Speaker 1: have an interception. With two games to go, the Jets 410 00:17:15,068 --> 00:17:18,508 Speaker 1: could have a perfect season. Football happens, guys, even if 411 00:17:18,548 --> 00:17:22,108 Speaker 1: you don't perfectly jump Arounte and pick it. Something's deflected 412 00:17:22,148 --> 00:17:25,548 Speaker 1: at the line, there's an interception that a linebacker grabs 413 00:17:25,628 --> 00:17:25,828 Speaker 1: or a. 414 00:17:25,748 --> 00:17:28,308 Speaker 4: Big d tackle and it goes to interceptions. They haven't 415 00:17:28,348 --> 00:17:30,108 Speaker 4: even had that historically. 416 00:17:30,948 --> 00:17:35,748 Speaker 1: The Owen sixteen Lions in eight had four interceptions as 417 00:17:35,788 --> 00:17:40,508 Speaker 1: a defense. The Owen sixteen Browns in twenty seventeen had 418 00:17:40,788 --> 00:17:44,868 Speaker 1: seven interceptions as the defense. The twenty twenty five Jets 419 00:17:44,948 --> 00:17:49,588 Speaker 1: that have won three games have zero interceptions with two 420 00:17:49,628 --> 00:17:53,508 Speaker 1: games left to play. Those two games against the Patriots 421 00:17:53,508 --> 00:17:55,508 Speaker 1: and Drake May. Drake May has thrown three picks in 422 00:17:55,548 --> 00:17:59,468 Speaker 1: his last four games, get one, and then against the Bills, 423 00:17:59,908 --> 00:18:03,628 Speaker 1: which might be Josh Allen, it might be Mitch Trubisky. 424 00:18:03,948 --> 00:18:05,948 Speaker 4: For the love of God, get one. 425 00:18:06,508 --> 00:18:09,668 Speaker 1: Don't do this as the team that with a defensive 426 00:18:09,708 --> 00:18:12,468 Speaker 1: coach that they just brought in has not even a 427 00:18:12,508 --> 00:18:14,308 Speaker 1: single interception seventeen games played. 428 00:18:14,388 --> 00:18:15,468 Speaker 4: Is unfathomable. 429 00:18:15,748 --> 00:18:17,428 Speaker 1: I kind of want to happen because it'd be crazy, 430 00:18:17,588 --> 00:18:19,908 Speaker 1: But really, if I'm being honest, all I want for 431 00:18:19,988 --> 00:18:22,068 Speaker 1: Christmas is one Jets interception. 432 00:18:22,228 --> 00:18:23,788 Speaker 4: I don't think that's too much to ask. 433 00:18:24,428 --> 00:18:26,868 Speaker 2: I would really love to pop all of our thought bubbles. 434 00:18:26,868 --> 00:18:29,268 Speaker 2: When Kyle said I'm gonna zag, and what we actually 435 00:18:29,308 --> 00:18:31,508 Speaker 2: thought he was. I never would have thought that that 436 00:18:31,628 --> 00:18:33,668 Speaker 2: was your zag. And that's why you're you KB. You 437 00:18:33,708 --> 00:18:36,428 Speaker 2: are the gift that keeps on giving. I'm not sure 438 00:18:36,428 --> 00:18:38,348 Speaker 2: what I want out of that for the Jets defense, 439 00:18:38,708 --> 00:18:39,948 Speaker 2: we will stay tuned for that. 440 00:18:39,948 --> 00:18:40,988 Speaker 3: That's why we love football. 441 00:18:41,148 --> 00:18:44,188 Speaker 2: Ian Rappaport, Welcome inside the program Gold Morning Football, NFL 442 00:18:44,228 --> 00:18:48,028 Speaker 2: Network Insider with us rappet We are in the building 443 00:18:48,028 --> 00:18:49,628 Speaker 2: with the Minnesota Vikings ahead of. 444 00:18:49,548 --> 00:18:51,588 Speaker 3: Their game against the Lions tomorrow. 445 00:18:51,668 --> 00:18:53,908 Speaker 2: Manti and I actually got a beautiful tour of this 446 00:18:53,988 --> 00:18:56,628 Speaker 2: year building. Players I think are just starting to file 447 00:18:56,668 --> 00:18:57,988 Speaker 2: in for meetings and whatnot. 448 00:18:58,348 --> 00:19:01,028 Speaker 3: Do they have their quarterback tomorrow? Their QB one against 449 00:19:01,028 --> 00:19:01,548 Speaker 3: the Lions. 450 00:19:01,988 --> 00:19:04,348 Speaker 13: They do have a quarterback, but it is not the 451 00:19:04,668 --> 00:19:08,108 Speaker 13: quarterback QB one. JJ McCarthy not going to play for 452 00:19:08,148 --> 00:19:12,548 Speaker 13: the Minnesota Vikings tomorrow. Again, a frustrating, injury riddled season 453 00:19:12,628 --> 00:19:16,308 Speaker 13: continues for the talented JJ McCarthy. This time he's going 454 00:19:16,388 --> 00:19:18,868 Speaker 13: to be out because of a hairline fracture in his 455 00:19:19,068 --> 00:19:21,868 Speaker 13: right hand. You saw the high profile hit there. Kevin 456 00:19:21,908 --> 00:19:24,148 Speaker 13: O'Connell said they've scoured the film to try to figure 457 00:19:24,148 --> 00:19:27,148 Speaker 13: out when this actually happened, and they actually did a 458 00:19:27,148 --> 00:19:30,308 Speaker 13: bunch of Tessa McCarthy did MURRAI did a CT scan 459 00:19:30,388 --> 00:19:32,068 Speaker 13: everything to figure out what actually was. 460 00:19:31,988 --> 00:19:32,708 Speaker 9: Wrong with his hand. 461 00:19:32,988 --> 00:19:35,348 Speaker 13: Turned out to be a hairline fracture. Hasn't been ruled 462 00:19:35,388 --> 00:19:37,948 Speaker 13: out for week eighteen yet, which is a sign that's 463 00:19:37,988 --> 00:19:40,748 Speaker 13: really not that series is basically a glorified bone bruise, 464 00:19:41,068 --> 00:19:43,868 Speaker 13: but not going to play, which means Max Brozmer, the 465 00:19:44,028 --> 00:19:47,468 Speaker 13: undrafted free agent really a fascinating player, is going to 466 00:19:47,548 --> 00:19:51,588 Speaker 13: start once again for the Minnesota Vikings, JJ McCarthy making 467 00:19:51,668 --> 00:19:55,588 Speaker 13: just nine starts over his first two seasons. Meanwhile, other 468 00:19:55,708 --> 00:19:59,748 Speaker 13: news from this day from tomorrow, basically, Amanro Saint Brown, 469 00:19:59,828 --> 00:20:03,028 Speaker 13: the Lion star receiver, was out the first week a 470 00:20:03,108 --> 00:20:05,588 Speaker 13: first day of the this week with the knee injury, 471 00:20:05,668 --> 00:20:08,628 Speaker 13: Dan Campbell clarifying it really it's just irritation and in 472 00:20:08,788 --> 00:20:12,148 Speaker 13: the upgraded to a limited participant yesterday. My understanding is 473 00:20:12,188 --> 00:20:15,068 Speaker 13: we should expect amen Rod s Brown to play because 474 00:20:15,428 --> 00:20:17,788 Speaker 13: of course he always plays. Remember when they had had 475 00:20:17,788 --> 00:20:19,548 Speaker 13: that high ankle spray was supposed to miss the game 476 00:20:19,548 --> 00:20:22,028 Speaker 13: against the Cowboys and just didn't miss it. That is 477 00:20:22,068 --> 00:20:24,748 Speaker 13: how he rolls. Meanwhile, we are still up in the 478 00:20:24,788 --> 00:20:28,028 Speaker 13: air about the status of Lamar Jackson, the Baltimore Ravens 479 00:20:28,188 --> 00:20:31,508 Speaker 13: starting quarterback, dealing with a severe backup tusion. Was not 480 00:20:31,548 --> 00:20:34,588 Speaker 13: able to finish the last week's game against New England Patriots, 481 00:20:34,788 --> 00:20:37,788 Speaker 13: was listed as a non participant yesterday as signed that 482 00:20:37,908 --> 00:20:40,508 Speaker 13: potentially he could miss the game on Saturday. 483 00:20:40,948 --> 00:20:43,828 Speaker 1: Now they have their best wide receiver suspended and their 484 00:20:43,828 --> 00:20:45,308 Speaker 1: best pass rusher is still injured. 485 00:20:45,348 --> 00:20:48,028 Speaker 4: TJ. Whtt I saw Tomlin was talking about it this week. 486 00:20:48,148 --> 00:20:52,108 Speaker 1: And he was distinguishing between an injury issue and a 487 00:20:52,268 --> 00:20:54,788 Speaker 1: medical issue being two different things. Can you tell us 488 00:20:54,828 --> 00:20:55,948 Speaker 1: what we need to know about TJ. 489 00:20:56,028 --> 00:20:56,748 Speaker 4: Watt? What's going on. 490 00:20:57,268 --> 00:21:00,268 Speaker 13: Here's my understanding of where the TJ. Watt situation stands. Remember, 491 00:21:00,308 --> 00:21:02,948 Speaker 13: he has missed the last two weeks after having surgery 492 00:21:02,988 --> 00:21:05,628 Speaker 13: to repair a partially collapsed along. 493 00:21:05,708 --> 00:21:06,948 Speaker 4: Tomlin was asked about it. 494 00:21:06,868 --> 00:21:10,308 Speaker 13: This week and the reporter said to him, is it 495 00:21:10,388 --> 00:21:13,988 Speaker 13: fair to say that it's now more about getting into 496 00:21:14,068 --> 00:21:16,588 Speaker 13: game shape than it is deal with the injury? And 497 00:21:16,628 --> 00:21:19,788 Speaker 13: Tomlin said that is a fair estimation. In other words, 498 00:21:20,628 --> 00:21:23,868 Speaker 13: it certainly seems like TJ. White has mostly overcome his 499 00:21:24,068 --> 00:21:25,268 Speaker 13: partially collapsed along. 500 00:21:25,308 --> 00:21:26,748 Speaker 9: It seems that if he is going. 501 00:21:26,588 --> 00:21:29,508 Speaker 13: To play, it's about football and being in football shape, 502 00:21:29,508 --> 00:21:32,188 Speaker 13: because remember he didn't do anything had surgery, didn't do 503 00:21:32,268 --> 00:21:34,588 Speaker 13: anything for two weeks, So we'll see if he can 504 00:21:34,628 --> 00:21:36,788 Speaker 13: get there. But the fact that they haven't ruled him 505 00:21:36,828 --> 00:21:39,628 Speaker 13: out yet is a sign that there's a chance. 506 00:21:40,028 --> 00:21:41,828 Speaker 2: And put that on our list of intrigue for the 507 00:21:41,828 --> 00:21:44,028 Speaker 2: AFC side of things rap sheet.

Somebody. 854 00:38:21,868 --> 00:38:22,188 Speaker 10: Let me know. 855 00:38:22,628 --> 00:38:26,628 Speaker 22: They are three and three with glasses, they are seven 856 00:38:26,668 --> 00:38:30,348 Speaker 22: and one without. Evan has more on this compelling. 857 00:38:29,988 --> 00:38:32,988 Speaker 7: Story sometimes you get to do some real journalism in this. 858 00:38:33,388 --> 00:38:37,788 Speaker 17: We did ask Sean about this during our call on Saturday, 859 00:38:37,828 --> 00:38:40,788 Speaker 17: and he said it started with his son alerting him 860 00:38:40,908 --> 00:38:44,348 Speaker 17: to the fact that Bill's Mafia was talking about the 861 00:38:44,468 --> 00:38:46,988 Speaker 17: glasses and the record as you saw there just being 862 00:38:47,068 --> 00:38:50,028 Speaker 17: much more positive without and then his wife endorsed. So 863 00:38:50,708 --> 00:38:52,748 Speaker 17: that's why you no longer see the lenses. But they 864 00:38:52,788 --> 00:38:56,108 Speaker 17: were prescription, guys, This wasn't just a style thing for Sean. 865 00:38:56,308 --> 00:38:58,228 Speaker 22: Oh like JJ earlier this season. 866 00:39:00,228 --> 00:39:01,828 Speaker 4: Yeah, those are not prescription. 867 00:39:02,028 --> 00:39:02,668 Speaker 3: No, those are not. 868 00:39:02,988 --> 00:39:06,068 Speaker 1: Those have won four straight since his son told him, Dad, 869 00:39:06,188 --> 00:39:09,348 Speaker 1: the glasses aren't a thing. But my question is this, Mike, 870 00:39:10,108 --> 00:39:13,348 Speaker 1: does he now did Sean McDermott have contact lenses or 871 00:39:13,468 --> 00:39:15,668 Speaker 1: is he just going with nothing, Because if he's going 872 00:39:15,748 --> 00:39:18,188 Speaker 1: with nothing, I bet that's irritating and he's just doing 873 00:39:18,268 --> 00:39:20,788 Speaker 1: it to try to let everyone have what they want. 874 00:39:20,908 --> 00:39:24,028 Speaker 1: But that there's nothing worse than you can't see quite well, 875 00:39:24,268 --> 00:39:26,148 Speaker 1: so I'm actually impressed there's still wanting to despite that. 876 00:39:26,468 --> 00:39:29,148 Speaker 8: Well, I think once you know something is good juju 877 00:39:29,268 --> 00:39:31,068 Speaker 8: for you, I think you continue to do it. I mean, 878 00:39:31,228 --> 00:39:33,068 Speaker 8: I would assume that that's the case now, and I 879 00:39:33,108 --> 00:39:35,348 Speaker 8: expect them to see him, and I was just wondering 880 00:39:35,428 --> 00:39:39,508 Speaker 8: how CBS came up with that, But apparently fans don't 881 00:39:39,548 --> 00:39:40,028 Speaker 8: miss a trick. 882 00:39:40,108 --> 00:39:42,268 Speaker 9: That's the best part. Fans know everybody's out there like 883 00:39:42,308 --> 00:39:43,708 Speaker 9: we win when he wears glasses. 884 00:39:43,788 --> 00:39:46,268 Speaker 8: So good on those people, Good on CBS, and good 885 00:39:46,308 --> 00:39:48,308 Speaker 8: on everybody who came into the booth with us this week. 886 00:39:49,068 --> 00:39:51,348 Speaker 4: Mike, you've gone through a cavalcade of of mics, if 887 00:39:51,388 --> 00:39:52,548 Speaker 4: you will.
