Last week I went 0:01:14.600 --> 0:01:20.640 with two breakfast burritos, hash browns and orange juice. Today, 0:01:21.240 --> 0:01:24.680 I am going to go with, you know, an old standard. 0:01:24.959 --> 0:01:28.800 Let's just go sausage McMuffin, sausage, you know, sausage, biscuit, 0:01:29.200 --> 0:01:33.360 hash browns, orange juice, done and done, delivered a trintage 0:01:33.680 --> 0:01:35.680 and hopefully we'll have that before the end of the show. 0:01:35.720 --> 0:01:38.360 See how easy that was. Now focus on the show 0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:41.280 while McDonald's brings the food right to my door. One 0:01:41.280 --> 0:01:43.440 of these days, we'll have it delivered to Demonsa in 0:01:43.480 --> 0:01:48.000 Los Angeles. That day, however, is not today on today's show, 0:01:48.000 --> 0:01:52.800 our week three gambling show. Yeah, fresh off winning week 0:01:52.840 --> 0:01:55.760 for that young man, winning week for this not quite 0:01:55.840 --> 0:02:00.280 as young man, and I'm feeling great about the late 0:02:00.880 --> 0:02:07.000 You know, I am in demons A picks competition with. 0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:11.400 Last year. Oh okay, no, so it's different. 0:02:11.560 --> 0:02:14.600 So so I'm in. In fact, let's just do this 0:02:14.639 --> 0:02:17.800 real quick, because I meant to last week say why 0:02:17.840 --> 0:02:21.520 I was not giving out survivor picks on this year 0:02:21.639 --> 0:02:25.720 A show, And the answer is because I am. Yes, 0:02:25.800 --> 0:02:28.400 I'm in that survivor contest I was in last year, 0:02:28.720 --> 0:02:31.600 where you know, there's twenty thousand people in it for 0:02:31.680 --> 0:02:34.799 twenty five bucks an entry and first prize like half 0:02:34.800 --> 0:02:37.079 a million bucks. That's not the one I'm focused on, though. 0:02:38.120 --> 0:02:42.400 I'm in the Circa Survivor contest Circa Casino in l 0:02:42.520 --> 0:02:46.640 In Vegas. It's one thousand dollars an entry. There are 0:02:46.760 --> 0:02:52.800 ten entries maximum. It's a nine million dollar prize because 0:02:52.840 --> 0:02:56.880 there were nine thousand entries, okay, nine thousand injuries to 0:02:56.919 --> 0:03:01.280 start the year. Me and a buddy spl it the 0:03:01.320 --> 0:03:05.160 maximum entries ten entries, so we're so it's not like 0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:07.680 I have five hes five. We have ten, and we 0:03:07.800 --> 0:03:09.600 kind of try to hive mind. 0:03:09.360 --> 0:03:11.840 It through two weeks. 0:03:12.639 --> 0:03:18.280 Of the original nine thousand entries, there are six thousand remaining, 0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:22.440 So already a third of the field has been lopped off. 0:03:23.240 --> 0:03:29.000 Of our ten injuries. How many do you think are remaining. 0:03:30.919 --> 0:03:32.000 I'd give it nine ten. 0:03:32.120 --> 0:03:36.520 Maybe let's go ten, let's go full ten. So we've 0:03:36.760 --> 0:03:40.920 we I we've got a full ten remaining, and we 0:03:41.160 --> 0:03:50.040 have used already on multiple entries Atlanta, Washington. In fact, 0:03:50.120 --> 0:03:52.760 let me let me just pull up, because this part 0:03:52.840 --> 0:03:56.320 is public. Let me let me pull up. Who so 0:03:56.520 --> 0:04:01.119 far we have used in our injuries three on Tampa, 0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:08.560 one on Atlanta, two on Washington three last week on 0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:15.360 the Giants in the comeback. We have great teams remaining. Now, 0:04:15.400 --> 0:04:20.640 the Circus Survivor Contest is unique because Thanksgiving Day and 0:04:20.839 --> 0:04:26.080 Christmas Day are their own weeks. So this Thanksgiving and Christmas, 0:04:26.120 --> 0:04:28.839 there's only three games each day, so you have to 0:04:28.920 --> 0:04:32.080 make sure you're planning out that you have good teams. So, 0:04:32.160 --> 0:04:36.719 for instance, just a little note, this week, the Chiefs 0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:41.320 and the Cowboys are both twelve plus point favorites, but 0:04:41.600 --> 0:04:44.400 a lot of people are gonna want to save the 0:04:44.440 --> 0:04:47.920 Cowboys for Thanksgiving and the Chiefs for Christmas. So there's 0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:51.239 a lot of strategy. But that's why I'm not giving 0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:54.479 out Survivor picks this year because we're talking real money 0:04:54.480 --> 0:04:56.480 and people, you know, once we get late in the year, 0:04:56.520 --> 0:04:58.680 I don't want people to be able to try to get, 0:04:58.680 --> 0:05:01.360 you know, game out where I'm going with it. So 0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:05.400 that is so last week was great gambling week. We 0:05:05.440 --> 0:05:09.440 had the live bet that we talked about on Tuesday. 0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:11.919 So all that we're going to get to the our 0:05:12.040 --> 0:05:15.440 picks in the B block of the show. Demonse had 0:05:15.480 --> 0:05:19.279 a great teaser last week that won with relative ease. 0:05:19.560 --> 0:05:21.760 We'll get to all that, but before we get to that, 0:05:21.800 --> 0:05:23.599 we need to get to the stories of the day. 0:05:24.000 --> 0:05:27.720 Here's what missed the cut. Kareem Hunt returning to Cleveland, 0:05:28.080 --> 0:05:32.279 Jerry Jones telling Mike McCarthy to take a bow, and 0:05:32.839 --> 0:05:39.039 Jason Kelsey jokingly confirms the rumors about his brother Travis 0:05:39.120 --> 0:05:43.160 dating Taylor Swift. It is not for the show, demanse, 0:05:43.720 --> 0:05:46.479 but I broke that news. I guess it kind of 0:05:46.520 --> 0:05:50.640 is for the show. To your mother this morning, that 0:05:50.640 --> 0:05:59.200 that Travis might be dating. No, you nailed it, she No, 0:06:00.080 --> 0:06:04.680 you tried to know your honest instant reaction. You know, 0:06:04.800 --> 0:06:07.800 you you might know your mother better than me, and 0:06:07.920 --> 0:06:10.080 I mean, you've known her for ten years longer, so 0:06:10.120 --> 0:06:15.680 I suppose maybe it's fair. But the she instantly got 0:06:15.760 --> 0:06:20.280 upset and wanted to come on the show to discuss it. 0:06:20.920 --> 0:06:25.440 But her feelings on it were so strong. Yeah, really, 0:06:26.240 --> 0:06:29.000 I was like, you know, I'm not sure if it's 0:06:29.040 --> 0:06:34.520 safe for air. She was really upset about that. Maybe 0:06:34.560 --> 0:06:37.000 if she moderates a bit, we can discuss it on 0:06:37.080 --> 0:06:40.360 a future pod or if it becomes officially official. All right, 0:06:40.720 --> 0:06:42.960 let's get to the show. What are we starting with today? 0:06:43.960 --> 0:06:45.600 All right, it's night the forty nine Ers play the 0:06:45.640 --> 0:06:49.400 Giants with no Saquan your Super Bowl pick in the NFC, 0:06:49.520 --> 0:06:53.760 Dallas plays the frisky Arizona Cardinals, and your Chiefs play 0:06:53.800 --> 0:06:56.760 the Bears. There are a bunch of other easy games 0:06:56.760 --> 0:07:01.280 this week Indian Baltimore, Buffalo at Washington. To mind, if 0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:04.440 the if the favorites always win, betting would be super easy, 0:07:04.760 --> 0:07:07.120 So teams are bound to get upset. Who do you 0:07:07.160 --> 0:07:08.839 think is gonna be upset this weekend? 0:07:09.240 --> 0:07:14.160 Okay, I don't think Dallas or the Chiefs are real 0:07:14.400 --> 0:07:19.880 upset candidates, But what I will say is the and 0:07:19.880 --> 0:07:22.400 we're gonna talk about the Bears later in this segments. 0:07:22.440 --> 0:07:26.280 You see the Justin Fields news. I actually think that 0:07:26.360 --> 0:07:29.680 the Fields press conference might bode well for his performance 0:07:29.720 --> 0:07:32.440 this week, but we'll talk about that after I answer 0:07:32.480 --> 0:07:39.000 this question. I I don't you know, Buffalo at an 0:07:39.160 --> 0:07:43.720 undefeated Washington team that has played well coming off of 0:07:43.920 --> 0:07:48.840 stirring victory. I don't consider that an easy game. 0:07:49.800 --> 0:07:50.640 I don't. 0:07:50.880 --> 0:07:53.080 I don't consider that like a walk in the park 0:07:53.160 --> 0:07:57.880 game that but that Washington defense is legit. Sam Howell, 0:07:57.920 --> 0:08:00.600 I gotta give him credit, played great in the second 0:08:00.640 --> 0:08:04.960 half last week, and the other game that really jumps 0:08:04.960 --> 0:08:09.360 out to me is the Dolphins and the Broncos. So 0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:14.560 the Broncos have fallen apart in the second half of 0:08:14.640 --> 0:08:20.160 these games. But this is a kitchen sinks try to 0:08:20.240 --> 0:08:24.480 save the season game for Sean Payton. It's a maybe 0:08:24.600 --> 0:08:27.440 try to save his career as a starter game for 0:08:27.520 --> 0:08:32.200 Russell Wilson. I think that Dolphins defense can get got 0:08:32.960 --> 0:08:36.880 and so that to me is an interesting spot with 0:08:37.040 --> 0:08:39.760 Miami and Denver. But the one I want to talk 0:08:39.800 --> 0:08:43.199 about is the game that's tonight the forty nine Ers 0:08:43.240 --> 0:08:46.600 in the Giants. That is a ten and a half 0:08:46.679 --> 0:08:51.800 point spread for a Giants team that it because there's 0:08:51.840 --> 0:08:56.160 no Saquon is just gonna have to lean on your 0:08:56.240 --> 0:09:01.120 guy Daniel Jones against that Niners defense. And this is 0:09:01.200 --> 0:09:04.520 a real litmus test game. Not can he win because 0:09:04.520 --> 0:09:08.440 the Niners are better, but can he look competent? So 0:09:08.559 --> 0:09:12.480 I want to ask you, how confident are you that 0:09:12.600 --> 0:09:17.640 your guy Daniel Jones can just look baseline competent against 0:09:17.640 --> 0:09:18.840 this Niners defense. 0:09:19.440 --> 0:09:23.480 Oh, I'm not super confident. I mean they haven't played 0:09:23.520 --> 0:09:26.640 two super good teams. I mean the Cowboys are obviously good, 0:09:27.360 --> 0:09:30.760 but a yep, I think it's I think it's gonna 0:09:30.760 --> 0:09:33.559 be a fourteen point loss. 0:09:34.800 --> 0:09:37.559 Oh I'm taking well, that might show up in Nick's 0:09:37.559 --> 0:09:40.840 picks the Giants and Niners for tonight, So I don't 0:09:40.840 --> 0:09:43.240 want to spend too much more time on it because 0:09:43.280 --> 0:09:45.320 you and I might be on other sides of that one. 0:09:45.679 --> 0:09:49.199 But if I had to pick a trap, Indy Baltimore 0:09:49.280 --> 0:09:51.520 is too hard to discuss right now because we don't 0:09:51.559 --> 0:09:55.480 know if Anthony Richardson's playing, and I know he's a rookie, 0:09:55.520 --> 0:10:01.240 but he gives you more upside than Gardner does. Buffalo Washington, Yeah, 0:10:01.360 --> 0:10:04.520 Lamar has been excellent or was excellent week two? Uh, 0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:10.240 Buffalo Washington and Miami Denver are two that I have 0:10:10.400 --> 0:10:13.880 a little let's take an extra beat looking at those games. 0:10:14.160 --> 0:10:18.360 I like the fact that the producers didn't even include 0:10:18.400 --> 0:10:22.600 as a possible trap game Jacksonville and the Texans. They 0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:24.920 just know that I'm not gonna give any even the 0:10:25.200 --> 0:10:29.079 slightest consideration that the Jags could falter to the Texans. 0:10:29.120 --> 0:10:32.760 All right, next, All right, it's Week two and the 0:10:32.800 --> 0:10:35.960 Chicago Bears are already looking a hot mess. The defensive 0:10:35.960 --> 0:10:39.480 coordinator resigned out of nowhere yesterday. Justin Fields blamed his 0:10:39.600 --> 0:10:43.040 robotic play on the coaching staff. You can probably cash 0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:44.880 her under seven and a half ticket already. 0:10:45.559 --> 0:10:49.880 H you got about that bet. What a great preseason 0:10:49.960 --> 0:10:54.160 wager by me. And you weren't on that show. Uh, 0:10:54.400 --> 0:10:58.480 we're you were not on the preseason game. You we did. 0:10:59.000 --> 0:11:03.120 You had gave her exact show exactly the initial show. 0:11:03.200 --> 0:11:06.920 My logic on the Bears were was very simple that 0:11:08.320 --> 0:11:10.600 if they went seven and ten, it would be a 0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:14.640 great season. They'd be thrilled with and the under would 0:11:14.720 --> 0:11:19.200 still hit. Right now, Bears fans would crawl across shattered 0:11:19.240 --> 0:11:21.480 glass if you told him they were gonna go seven 0:11:21.559 --> 0:11:24.840 and ten, they would be thrilled with that. I forgot 0:11:24.880 --> 0:11:27.000 I made that bet. What a great bet. Go ahead 0:11:28.000 --> 0:11:28.400 all right? 0:11:28.480 --> 0:11:31.080 So in your opinion, do you think Fields is redeemable 0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:32.400 or is this all over? 0:11:34.040 --> 0:11:34.160 So? 0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:40.240 I do think he's redeemable. I think that Fields the 0:11:41.000 --> 0:11:43.000 I know you're gonna laugh at me, but he was 0:11:43.200 --> 0:11:46.600 such a great high school and collegiate player, and he 0:11:46.640 --> 0:11:50.160 has so many great physical tools that I'm not gonna 0:11:50.240 --> 0:11:53.200 just throw him out. I'm not gonna just say okay, 0:11:53.240 --> 0:11:54.280 the guy can't play. 0:11:54.840 --> 0:12:00.760 Now they are doing right now? What inverse? Like? Oh, 0:12:00.800 --> 0:12:03.280 he was super good in high school. In college, he 0:12:03.520 --> 0:12:06.400 sucks in the pros, so I gotta give him a chance. 0:12:06.760 --> 0:12:10.760 But the guy high school in college and does good 0:12:10.760 --> 0:12:13.480 in the NFL. Oh, I've got to see more. I've 0:12:13.520 --> 0:12:15.520 got I need more, David, But I get it. I 0:12:15.559 --> 0:12:17.720 see it. Yes, I'm gonna harp on that every time 0:12:17.760 --> 0:12:18.280 it comes up. 0:12:18.320 --> 0:12:21.280 By the way, that's fine, That's totally fine. But at 0:12:21.360 --> 0:12:25.360 least I'm consistent that logical tree flows. 0:12:25.559 --> 0:12:27.000 Yes, no, it does, it does. 0:12:28.600 --> 0:12:32.800 You're right, and obviously right now, it's not as if 0:12:32.840 --> 0:12:37.120 because of Justin Field's high school and collegiate resume, I 0:12:37.160 --> 0:12:40.760 am then going to say I'm gonna say he's better 0:12:40.800 --> 0:12:44.040 than brock Party right now, He's not better than Brock Party. 0:12:44.400 --> 0:12:46.559 Do I in my heart of hearts, if you were 0:12:46.559 --> 0:12:50.199 to tell me one of these two quarterbacks is going 0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:55.320 to one day be excellent, I would pick fields. But 0:12:55.720 --> 0:12:58.160 if you were to ask me one of these two 0:12:58.280 --> 0:13:01.920 quarterbacks is going to be washed out and a total 0:13:01.960 --> 0:13:04.760 button Party can't really be a bus but you understand 0:13:04.760 --> 0:13:07.960 what I mean, like not even be a starting quarterback 0:13:08.280 --> 0:13:10.760 in this league in three years. I would also pick 0:13:10.800 --> 0:13:14.160 fields for that, Like to me, the because of his 0:13:14.240 --> 0:13:16.760 play in the pros. We have to open up the 0:13:16.800 --> 0:13:20.880 possibility that he's not gonna translate to this level. I 0:13:21.120 --> 0:13:24.560 also did not think he was trying to throw his 0:13:24.640 --> 0:13:27.640 coaches under the bus. Even if he was throwing his 0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:31.199 coaches under the bus, the reality to me in Chicago 0:13:31.360 --> 0:13:36.120 is very simple. He is not being coached well and 0:13:36.200 --> 0:13:41.520 he is playing terribly, and then you are there are 0:13:41.640 --> 0:13:44.800 certain things that are flatly on coaching. There's a great 0:13:44.840 --> 0:13:49.319 clip going around the internet of the three plays that 0:13:49.520 --> 0:13:53.920 led to the goal line pick six that ended the 0:13:53.960 --> 0:13:59.760 Bucks game that the Chicago Bears called an inside screen 0:13:59.800 --> 0:14:03.839 to the running back on first down. It was unsuccessful, 0:14:04.240 --> 0:14:07.040 but Tampa was off sides, so now they have first 0:14:07.080 --> 0:14:11.400 and five. They lined up in the same formation and 0:14:11.520 --> 0:14:15.560 called an inside screen to the running back again, same formation, 0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:20.160 same play. It was successful, but there was a holding penalty, 0:14:20.360 --> 0:14:22.480 so now they got Now they're in first down for 0:14:22.520 --> 0:14:27.760 a third straight time. They ran an inside screen to 0:14:27.840 --> 0:14:31.200 the running back out of that formation for a third 0:14:31.600 --> 0:14:35.840 play in a row, and it got picked and Tampa's 0:14:35.880 --> 0:14:39.680 defense after the game was asked about it and said, yeah, 0:14:39.680 --> 0:14:41.680 it was really easy. They kept running the same play 0:14:41.680 --> 0:14:43.960 out of the same formation so we knew what was coming. 0:14:44.440 --> 0:14:49.680 That's coaching. That is flatly coaching. Now there's another clip 0:14:49.720 --> 0:14:53.000 of fields in the first half having a clean pocket 0:14:53.640 --> 0:14:56.440 right around the red zone with res we were running 0:14:56.600 --> 0:15:00.800 wide open into the end zone down the sea, and 0:15:00.880 --> 0:15:04.320 he just doesn't see it, drops his eyes and runs 0:15:04.320 --> 0:15:07.440 and takes a sack. So he has not been good. 0:15:07.800 --> 0:15:11.560 The coaching has not been good. What is true, in 0:15:11.720 --> 0:15:17.960 my opinion, is they are because they want him to 0:15:18.040 --> 0:15:22.880 develop as a pocket passer. They are leaning too far 0:15:23.040 --> 0:15:28.440 away from what makes him dangerous, which is the fact 0:15:29.000 --> 0:15:31.560 that he is as good of a running thread at 0:15:31.600 --> 0:15:35.200 the quarterback position as we have ever seen. And if 0:15:35.240 --> 0:15:42.080 they let that continue to be his fastball while making 0:15:42.200 --> 0:15:47.680 defenses afraid of that first, the passing game will be easier. 0:15:48.040 --> 0:15:51.560 But he also must be better in the passing game. 0:15:51.920 --> 0:15:55.600 Fact the matter is, though the Bears had the number 0:15:55.640 --> 0:15:59.560 one pick of the draft, traded it away because they 0:15:59.600 --> 0:16:03.400 believe in fields. So they need to ride with justin 0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:07.880 fields obviously, and try to figure this out. Now, what 0:16:08.000 --> 0:16:12.200 I will say is now, the thing with the decordinator 0:16:13.080 --> 0:16:16.240 seems to be not football related. We don't know what 0:16:16.360 --> 0:16:19.880 happened there, and there was some misinformation going on on 0:16:19.960 --> 0:16:22.240 the internet yesterday. I don't know what happened there. That 0:16:22.360 --> 0:16:25.800 obviously hurts them for this weekend, but it's not a 0:16:25.800 --> 0:16:28.120 football story, at least at the time being far. 0:16:28.280 --> 0:16:28.640 We know. 0:16:30.520 --> 0:16:36.680 Fields talking about getting more to what he's comfortable with, 0:16:36.880 --> 0:16:41.120 not thinking too much, not being robotic. I think potentially 0:16:41.160 --> 0:16:44.800 could help him this weekend for Kansas City. I think 0:16:44.840 --> 0:16:48.240 that as a Chiefs fan, I wanted them to change nothing. 0:16:48.640 --> 0:16:51.120 The fact that it looks like he might try to 0:16:51.160 --> 0:16:54.160 go back to just doing what's natural for him will 0:16:54.160 --> 0:16:57.080 give him more of a fighting chance. But that Chiefs 0:16:57.120 --> 0:16:58.200 defense is legit. 0:16:59.040 --> 0:17:01.920 Go ahead. I think it's gonna be a pretty pretty 0:17:01.960 --> 0:17:05.160 decent game. Got two quarterbacks struggling to throw the ball 0:17:05.240 --> 0:17:06.960 right now, shoot Lake even out? 0:17:07.000 --> 0:17:11.159 All right, Okay, next, just let's just move on to 0:17:11.240 --> 0:17:12.160 the next top. 0:17:14.320 --> 0:17:18.560 Former Chiefs former chief former Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Vietneme 0:17:18.720 --> 0:17:21.760 was passed up for a head coaching job in the 0:17:21.880 --> 0:17:25.240 last two seasons. BN me is now what in Washington 0:17:25.280 --> 0:17:27.320 and Sam Howe is two and zero and they just 0:17:27.320 --> 0:17:30.680 put up thirty five in Denver. Meanwhile, the Chiefs lost 0:17:30.960 --> 0:17:34.040 lost their offensive coordinator and they've struggled a bit. You've 0:17:34.080 --> 0:17:36.679 also thought bne Me deserved a head coaching job. Do 0:17:36.760 --> 0:17:38.560 you think it's time for the rest of the league 0:17:38.600 --> 0:17:41.159 to admit that they've missed out in the enemy? I 0:17:41.200 --> 0:17:44.000 hate my last name. I'm sorry, that's all right. 0:17:44.080 --> 0:17:48.639 Here's what I find interesting now. He is getting some 0:17:48.840 --> 0:17:53.639 credit in the media for what Washington is doing, and 0:17:53.680 --> 0:17:56.280 he deserves it. Probably more credit than he's getting, but 0:17:56.320 --> 0:18:00.640 he deserves it. Sam Howell has looked good and the 0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:03.879 hanging thirty five on that Denver defense and an eighteen 0:18:03.920 --> 0:18:07.439 point comeback and howl dropping dimes. He deserves credit for that. 0:18:09.160 --> 0:18:12.199 I still think he's getting slighted a bit in this 0:18:12.359 --> 0:18:19.560 regard last year when Josh Allen struggled what the general 0:18:19.720 --> 0:18:24.159 media consensus was, Uh, he misses Brian Dabele. He misses 0:18:24.200 --> 0:18:28.680 Brian Abele. The Chiefs offense has not looked sharp through 0:18:28.800 --> 0:18:33.840 two weeks. No one has said, oh, they miss Eric Benemy. 0:18:34.240 --> 0:18:36.919 You know, so I still feel like he's only getting 0:18:37.040 --> 0:18:38.800 half the credit he deserves. 0:18:38.840 --> 0:18:39.119 Now. 0:18:39.920 --> 0:18:44.639 Am I concerned about the Chiefs because he's gone. Not 0:18:44.760 --> 0:18:48.360 in the long term. I Angreid and Mahomes and Matt 0:18:48.440 --> 0:18:51.680 Nagy's there they'll figure it out. But I do think 0:18:51.760 --> 0:18:56.520 that it is it is at least somewhat related that 0:18:56.560 --> 0:18:59.159 the enemy's gone and the offense doesn't look as sharp. 0:19:00.160 --> 0:19:06.520 Also think that his best path to being a head coach. 0:19:07.320 --> 0:19:12.159 It's a weird spot because he kind of needs Washington 0:19:12.359 --> 0:19:16.959 to falter, because his best path might be they fire 0:19:17.119 --> 0:19:21.159 Ron Rivera and then higher, you know, give him the 0:19:21.160 --> 0:19:26.800 promotion from within. But if they fire Ron Rivera, that's 0:19:26.840 --> 0:19:30.199 probably because Washington's offense has faltered, because I think that 0:19:30.320 --> 0:19:33.480 defense is legit. So he's in a weird spot. But 0:19:33.960 --> 0:19:38.280 through two weeks. And I made this point before and 0:19:38.320 --> 0:19:43.840 I'll just make it again very quickly. Here, uh the 0:19:43.960 --> 0:19:46.520 fact that if we just want to go to the 0:19:46.600 --> 0:19:52.800 Mahomes era, right, since Mahomes has been a starting quarterback 0:19:52.840 --> 0:19:56.560 in this league, the teams and they're off and they're 0:19:56.640 --> 0:20:01.120 coordinators that have gotten head coaching jobs that were in 0:20:01.160 --> 0:20:05.800 the Super Bowl, Right, So the Patriots had Flores and 0:20:07.640 --> 0:20:12.280 pardon me, Flores and Josh McDaniel, they're the coordinators. They 0:20:12.320 --> 0:20:16.240 both get head coaching jobs eventually, the Rams there they 0:20:16.320 --> 0:20:19.520 had that year in the twenty nineteen Super Bowl or 0:20:19.560 --> 0:20:24.000 twenty eighteen season, twenty nineteen, Brandon Staley's the DC. I 0:20:24.000 --> 0:20:26.920 don't even I think Zach Taylor's the OC. They both 0:20:26.960 --> 0:20:29.800 get head coaching jobs. The next year. For the Chiefs, 0:20:29.880 --> 0:20:33.880 it's Eric b Enemy and Steve Spagnolo. Now Spagnolo already 0:20:33.880 --> 0:20:35.960 had been a head coach and got fired. He's a 0:20:36.080 --> 0:20:38.639 kind of a DC forever now, so he set him aside. 0:20:38.840 --> 0:20:42.480 B Enemy doesn't get it. The Niners defensive coordinators, Robert 0:20:42.600 --> 0:20:45.680 sala he gets a head coaching job. The offensive coordinators 0:20:45.720 --> 0:20:50.000 Mike McDaniel, he gets a head coaching job, his protege 0:20:50.760 --> 0:20:54.239 on the on the defensive side for the Niners, by 0:20:54.240 --> 0:20:56.000 the way, to Miko Ryans, he also got a head 0:20:56.040 --> 0:20:56.640 coaching job. 0:20:57.000 --> 0:20:57.560 Tampa. 0:20:58.280 --> 0:21:02.480 Their coordinators don't get head coaching jobs. They're black coordinators. 0:21:02.840 --> 0:21:06.680 The Chiefs are in that Super Bowl. Obviously we talked 0:21:06.680 --> 0:21:12.040 about it there. The Rams. Then it's Kevin O'Connell. He 0:21:12.080 --> 0:21:17.600 gets a head coaching job Cincinnati. The who's the Zach 0:21:17.640 --> 0:21:20.960 Taylor who came from Sean McVay. He's now the Bengals 0:21:20.960 --> 0:21:23.800 head coach. And the Eagles both their coordinators get head 0:21:23.800 --> 0:21:29.240 coaching jobs. So it did seem wildly unfair and I 0:21:29.359 --> 0:21:31.600 stand by all of that, and I think the early 0:21:31.720 --> 0:21:35.520 returns are showing why the enemy should have gotten a 0:21:35.560 --> 0:21:37.960 longer look or a fairer look than he was getting. 0:21:38.280 --> 0:21:40.760 I understand it's early, but that's where I landed on 0:21:40.800 --> 0:21:42.560 it then, and that's where I land on it now. 0:21:42.600 --> 0:21:45.879 All right, next, well said, all right? On Tuesday, EU 0:21:45.960 --> 0:21:48.960 teams that you wanted to talk about Dion and Colorado University. 0:21:49.760 --> 0:21:52.080 Since then, Dion said his kids will be returning to 0:21:52.080 --> 0:21:56.040 Colorado next season. If there a season continues, why would 0:21:56.040 --> 0:21:58.680 he return to Colorado next year? All right? 0:21:58.760 --> 0:22:02.520 So here's the deal on that. So Caleb is gonna 0:22:02.520 --> 0:22:05.880 go number one in this draft no matter what. Shador 0:22:07.359 --> 0:22:10.960 is right now projected to be the third or fourth 0:22:11.000 --> 0:22:16.520 quarterback taken. So everybody has Caleb number one. Most people 0:22:16.560 --> 0:22:21.320 have Drake may number two. Then there's debate bo Nicks 0:22:21.320 --> 0:22:24.720 who he plays this week, Shadoor, you ares the kid 0:22:24.760 --> 0:22:27.000 at Texas. Those are the other guys in the three 0:22:27.119 --> 0:22:33.520 four five ring. The difference in money between being the 0:22:33.640 --> 0:22:36.600 number one pick of the draft number one pick of 0:22:36.640 --> 0:22:40.359 this last year's draft, Bryce Young got five years forty 0:22:40.440 --> 0:22:43.879 million fully guaranteed. The number ten pick got five years 0:22:43.920 --> 0:22:49.760 twenty million fully guaranteed Shador has a real chance to 0:22:49.840 --> 0:22:53.719 be the number one pick of the following year's draft. 0:22:54.400 --> 0:22:57.879 You then add this fact part to it, which is 0:22:57.920 --> 0:23:00.560 a new element. Joel Klapp brought the up on the herd, 0:23:00.560 --> 0:23:03.960 and he's correct. How much money can Shoudoor Sanders make 0:23:04.840 --> 0:23:10.680 next year at Colorado? Could he make ten million dollars 0:23:10.800 --> 0:23:14.360 in nil money? That's what Joel said. I think he's right. 0:23:15.040 --> 0:23:19.320 I think Shador might actually be able to make more 0:23:19.440 --> 0:23:24.920 money coming back for college in his unique situation, and 0:23:24.960 --> 0:23:28.960 then also improve his draft stock. So because of that, 0:23:29.600 --> 0:23:32.760 I think it is a unique spot. Now, it doesn't 0:23:32.800 --> 0:23:35.600 mean he definitely should come back, and guys can get 0:23:35.680 --> 0:23:37.639 hurt and there are different things that could happen. 0:23:38.119 --> 0:23:39.400 But I don't think. 0:23:39.240 --> 0:23:43.200 It's unreasonable to say you come back, give yourself a 0:23:43.280 --> 0:23:45.040 chance to be the number one pick and make the 0:23:45.160 --> 0:23:50.480 money anyway, and then also have a much larger starting 0:23:50.640 --> 0:23:54.000 NFL contract. It might be the best thing for his 0:23:54.680 --> 0:23:59.359 development as a player and for his finances. So in 0:23:59.400 --> 0:24:01.880 that regard, there it is. We're in a brave new 0:24:01.920 --> 0:24:05.320 world of college athletics and what it makes sense for 0:24:05.320 --> 0:24:07.840 you guys to do. We're not to do. All right, 0:24:07.880 --> 0:24:09.040 what are the follow ups here? 0:24:09.720 --> 0:24:11.520 Uh? Do you think they can beat Oregon this week 0:24:11.600 --> 0:24:17.960 without Travis Hunter? And then okay, hold on before get listen. 0:24:17.960 --> 0:24:21.760 They're twenty one point dogs for a reason. I do 0:24:21.880 --> 0:24:28.119 think it's worth noting Colorado has played poorly or underachieved, 0:24:28.119 --> 0:24:30.520 if you will, in one game this year. That was 0:24:30.520 --> 0:24:32.840 the game they were a huge favorite. When they were 0:24:32.880 --> 0:24:35.639 a massive dog to TCU. They played great when it 0:24:35.680 --> 0:24:38.160 was a pick them against their two point line. Against Nebraska, 0:24:38.200 --> 0:24:42.000 they rolled them. So I think being an underdog suits them. 0:24:42.400 --> 0:24:46.200 Oregon deserves to be favored. Oregon's at home, Oregon has 0:24:46.240 --> 0:24:52.199 the better roster, and uh, Colorado is without it's you know, 0:24:52.280 --> 0:24:54.840 other than should or it's best player, number one, another 0:24:55.000 --> 0:24:59.359 number one kid in high school, Travis Hunter. With that said, 0:25:00.600 --> 0:25:05.159 Oregon's not great at all defensively. Now, could I see 0:25:05.200 --> 0:25:09.880 like these next two Colorado games could be games they 0:25:09.920 --> 0:25:15.120 score thirty five points and lose the Colorado USC game 0:25:15.240 --> 0:25:19.320
