Speaker 1: have notes, takes a note feedback. NNA have fun today.

10
00:00:46,748 --> 00:00:48,388
Speaker 1: But the beauty is we get to talk more. So

11
00:00:48,508 --> 00:00:53,028
Speaker 1: let's lead block all right. AFC playoff picture, because tis

12
00:00:53,068 --> 00:00:56,708
Speaker 1: this season. Bill's twelve and three. They have obviously clinched

13
00:00:56,708 --> 00:01:00,268
Speaker 1: the AFC East, as the Chiefs had in the done

14
00:01:00,308 --> 00:01:03,508
Speaker 1: a couple weeks ago. In the West, Bengals um they

15
00:01:03,548 --> 00:01:06,588
Speaker 1: have a playoff, but the North still up for grabs.

16
00:01:06,948 --> 00:01:09,508
Speaker 1: But let's take a look at these two in the

17
00:01:09,508 --> 00:01:13,228
Speaker 1: top spots in particular, and how they can clinch home

18
00:01:13,308 --> 00:01:15,988
Speaker 1: field and a bye, which is the top spot in

19
00:01:16,028 --> 00:01:18,468
Speaker 1: the AFC. They both need to win out. But the

20
00:01:18,588 --> 00:01:21,068
Speaker 1: name that you draw to the game that you go

21
00:01:21,188 --> 00:01:25,388
Speaker 1: to inherently Bills at Bengals. Oh my gosh, it's Monday

22
00:01:25,428 --> 00:01:29,428
Speaker 1: Night football this weekend, so feels like a heavier lift.

23
00:01:30,028 --> 00:01:32,108
Speaker 1: Let's talk what it would mean for these two teams

24
00:01:32,108 --> 00:01:35,308
Speaker 1: and how good they are to have home field advantage

25
00:01:35,348 --> 00:01:38,508
Speaker 1: and a buy to enter the playoffs. But which team

26
00:01:38,508 --> 00:01:40,788
Speaker 1: do you think would find it more useful to have

27
00:01:40,828 --> 00:01:42,708
Speaker 1: a buy in a home field advantage in the first week?

28
00:01:42,868 --> 00:01:45,588
Speaker 1: So hard to figure out which team needs it more

29
00:01:45,628 --> 00:01:48,188
Speaker 1: as both of them are relatively healthy at this point

30
00:01:48,228 --> 00:01:51,108
Speaker 1: in the season. But who doesn't want a first round by?

31
00:01:51,348 --> 00:01:54,348
Speaker 1: But as I look at this, this is Kansas City territory.

32
00:01:54,388 --> 00:01:57,148
Speaker 1: They're used to being at home throughout the playoffs. In

33
00:01:57,148 --> 00:01:59,348
Speaker 1: this struct where Patrick Mahomes has been at the Helm

34
00:01:59,548 --> 00:02:02,908
Speaker 1: with Andy Read, they've been extremely successful. Out of the

35
00:02:02,988 --> 00:02:05,908
Speaker 1: last three seasons, they've been to two Super Bowls, and

36
00:02:05,948 --> 00:02:09,188
Speaker 1: there have been one common denominator, multiple but one in

37
00:02:09,228 --> 00:02:12,788
Speaker 1: particular common denominator throughout the playoffs. Both times that they

38
00:02:12,788 --> 00:02:15,188
Speaker 1: went to the super Bowl, they were the number one seed,

39
00:02:15,428 --> 00:02:19,108
Speaker 1: they had home field advantage, and they had a first

40
00:02:19,228 --> 00:02:22,868
Speaker 1: round bye. It is huge you look out. In twenty nineteen,

41
00:02:23,068 --> 00:02:24,988
Speaker 1: they get that bye, they go on to the Super

42
00:02:25,028 --> 00:02:27,868
Speaker 1: Bowl and obviously we know they fall short and they

43
00:02:27,908 --> 00:02:30,788
Speaker 1: lose to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. That next year first

44
00:02:30,868 --> 00:02:34,428
Speaker 1: round by again they go on to win the Super Bowl,

45
00:02:34,708 --> 00:02:37,228
Speaker 1: and then this past year they play in a wild

46
00:02:37,228 --> 00:02:40,388
Speaker 1: card game against Pittsburgh. As they advanced, they end up

47
00:02:40,468 --> 00:02:43,908
Speaker 1: losing in an NFC championship. And it's been the thing

48
00:02:43,988 --> 00:02:46,788
Speaker 1: for Kansas City there used to being at Arrowhead whether

49
00:02:46,868 --> 00:02:50,108
Speaker 1: fans are going absolutely insane. This past week we saw

50
00:02:50,148 --> 00:02:52,748
Speaker 1: a fan in the coal no shirt on, take his

51
00:02:52,868 --> 00:02:55,668
Speaker 1: boot off, pours beer in his boot and you know

52
00:02:55,708 --> 00:02:58,108
Speaker 1: how that finished. Yes, we saw it this weekend at

53
00:02:58,228 --> 00:03:02,228
Speaker 1: Arrowhead Stadium. Those fans go absolutely insane. So for the

54
00:03:02,308 --> 00:03:05,108
Speaker 1: Kansas City teams being at home where they've had the

55
00:03:05,268 --> 00:03:07,628
Speaker 1: most success in the playoffs. So if y'all had to

56
00:03:07,708 --> 00:03:10,228
Speaker 1: choose one team, they both want it. I know what

57
00:03:10,308 --> 00:03:13,348
Speaker 1: it's like. I remember being with the Patriots in twenty nineteen.

58
00:03:13,548 --> 00:03:16,188
Speaker 1: We played in Miami Dolphins last game of the season.

59
00:03:16,428 --> 00:03:18,988
Speaker 1: If we win that game, we get a first round

60
00:03:19,068 --> 00:03:21,588
Speaker 1: by we lose that game, I remember being in the

61
00:03:21,588 --> 00:03:24,028
Speaker 1: locker room and it felt like we had already lost

62
00:03:24,028 --> 00:03:27,868
Speaker 1: a playoff game. Just how defeated everybody was. That next

63
00:03:27,868 --> 00:03:30,268
Speaker 1: week we go out to Tennessee, Titans roll into town,

64
00:03:30,508 --> 00:03:33,148
Speaker 1: and the wild Card send us packing back home on

65
00:03:33,188 --> 00:03:36,308
Speaker 1: a vacation. So a first round by is huge for

66
00:03:36,348 --> 00:03:38,668
Speaker 1: a team to rest up, even I think bigger than

67
00:03:38,908 --> 00:03:40,828
Speaker 1: the home field at vantage. I think the Patriots are

68
00:03:40,828 --> 00:03:42,828
Speaker 1: still on that vacation. If we're looking at my being,

69
00:03:42,908 --> 00:03:45,108
Speaker 1: my gosh, I can't believe we're sitting here with the

70
00:03:45,148 --> 00:03:46,828
Speaker 1: Chiefs and Bills and they're both twelve and three, Like,

71
00:03:46,828 --> 00:03:49,108
Speaker 1: what are the chances? It's so crazy with two weeks left,

72
00:03:49,148 --> 00:03:51,868
Speaker 1: both twelve and three. And also if you look at Buffalo,

73
00:03:52,268 --> 00:03:54,668
Speaker 1: everything they've been through this year, the last few years,

74
00:03:54,668 --> 00:03:55,988
Speaker 1: trying to get over the Chiefs, trying to get over

75
00:03:56,028 --> 00:03:58,828
Speaker 1: the Mountain, and then this year, whether injury, all that,

76
00:03:58,908 --> 00:04:00,668
Speaker 1: and like lose to the Bengals, I think you're screwed.

77
00:04:00,828 --> 00:04:02,668
Speaker 1: Like loose the Bengals, I think they're going back to

78
00:04:02,788 --> 00:04:04,628
Speaker 1: Arrowhead maybe for a title game or to be that's

79
00:04:04,628 --> 00:04:06,988
Speaker 1: all it has to be. Because the Chiefs are playing

80
00:04:06,988 --> 00:04:08,908
Speaker 1: the Broncos and the Raiders, and those are just two

81
00:04:08,948 --> 00:04:12,108
Speaker 1: teams that they just wear out year after year beat

82
00:04:12,148 --> 00:04:14,228
Speaker 1: both of them and Bills lose to the Bengals, and

83
00:04:14,228 --> 00:04:16,108
Speaker 1: it's like, all right, back an arrowhead. It's just that

84
00:04:16,348 --> 00:04:18,468
Speaker 1: easy and it goes that fast. But I think in

85
00:04:18,508 --> 00:04:21,068
Speaker 1: this conversation, home field is great, and we've talked about

86
00:04:21,108 --> 00:04:23,468
Speaker 1: it a bunch. I think the buy is so big,

87
00:04:23,548 --> 00:04:25,908
Speaker 1: and it's big every year, of course, but just look

88
00:04:25,948 --> 00:04:28,388
Speaker 1: at the AFC field and tell me, do you want

89
00:04:28,388 --> 00:04:30,788
Speaker 1: to play two playoff games to get to the super

90
00:04:30,788 --> 00:04:32,948
Speaker 1: Bowl or do you want to play three? Who do

91
00:04:32,948 --> 00:04:35,308
Speaker 1: you want to play? There? Like even teams right now,

92
00:04:35,388 --> 00:04:38,988
Speaker 1: like the Chargers are like streaking and they feel like

93
00:04:39,068 --> 00:04:42,668
Speaker 1: this year's Bengals. The Ravens are mysterious and in this

94
00:04:42,788 --> 00:04:46,588
Speaker 1: enigma that we don't know, the Jaguars are dangerous, the Dolphins,

95
00:04:46,588 --> 00:04:48,668
Speaker 1: who the hell knows. But like, just take your pick

96
00:04:48,708 --> 00:04:50,428
Speaker 1: and throw a dart at the screen and be like,

97
00:04:50,628 --> 00:04:52,508
Speaker 1: would you like to have a week off? Like it's

98
00:04:52,508 --> 00:04:54,508
Speaker 1: almost like you'd like to have the week off more

99
00:04:54,588 --> 00:04:57,948
Speaker 1: than the home field, especially now, just to batten down

100
00:04:58,028 --> 00:05:00,148
Speaker 1: the hatches and get right and chill out. It's like

101
00:05:00,308 --> 00:05:02,508
Speaker 1: the buy is always high stakes, and it's particularly high

102
00:05:02,508 --> 00:05:04,708
Speaker 1: stakes when it went to one. But this af see,

103
00:05:04,748 --> 00:05:06,548
Speaker 1: we know this is going to be a royal rumble,

104
00:05:06,588 --> 00:05:08,948
Speaker 1: we know this is gonna be one month of chaos

105
00:05:08,988 --> 00:05:12,148
Speaker 1: and bedlam, and it's just that Bye is so, so,

106
00:05:12,148 --> 00:05:14,188
Speaker 1: so massive. And then if you look at the home

107
00:05:14,188 --> 00:05:16,428
Speaker 1: field side of him, the thing that keep striking me

108
00:05:16,428 --> 00:05:18,828
Speaker 1: about you're talking about Mahomes and the Chiefs. This guy,

109
00:05:18,868 --> 00:05:21,748
Speaker 1: in this crazy career that he's had, has never played

110
00:05:21,788 --> 00:05:24,628
Speaker 1: a road playoff game Nike never ever. It's like, so

111
00:05:24,668 --> 00:05:26,468
Speaker 1: he's the only road games he's playing in the playoffs

112
00:05:26,468 --> 00:05:28,788
Speaker 1: are super Bowls, So he's never had this, Well we

113
00:05:28,868 --> 00:05:31,308
Speaker 1: got to go to Pittsburgh and win, or Tennessee or anything.

114
00:05:31,428 --> 00:05:34,268
Speaker 1: It's only Arrowheads. So if he wakes up and has

115
00:05:34,308 --> 00:05:35,748
Speaker 1: to go to the division around to any one of

116
00:05:35,788 --> 00:05:38,028
Speaker 1: those cities, it's like he's a rookie again. He's never

117
00:05:38,068 --> 00:05:40,268
Speaker 1: done that. And that's a really rare thing and speaks

118
00:05:40,268 --> 00:05:42,228
Speaker 1: to how well they've been said in the regular season

119
00:05:42,228 --> 00:05:44,628
Speaker 1: with the records, but I would say probably Buffalo by

120
00:05:44,668 --> 00:05:47,148
Speaker 1: a nos. Yeah, but it's it's whoever gets that by

121
00:05:47,308 --> 00:05:49,628
Speaker 1: It's almost like they already have a playoff win. And

122
00:05:49,708 --> 00:05:52,548
Speaker 1: in this AFC more than ever, it's massive. I'm right

123
00:05:52,588 --> 00:05:54,628
Speaker 1: there with you. Twofold the Bills. I go with the

124
00:05:54,668 --> 00:05:56,668
Speaker 1: Bills that they need it to have the buy in

125
00:05:56,788 --> 00:05:58,668
Speaker 1: the home field. But I think a lot of it

126
00:05:58,708 --> 00:06:00,668
Speaker 1: has to do with Patrick Mahomes. You know, just just

127
00:06:00,708 --> 00:06:02,468
Speaker 1: to put it into context, Kyle, you hit the nail

128
00:06:02,468 --> 00:06:04,708
Speaker 1: on the head. But it's not just like one time

129
00:06:04,788 --> 00:06:06,388
Speaker 1: he's gone through the playoffs and he's got to play

130
00:06:06,428 --> 00:06:08,748
Speaker 1: at home and go to a super Bowl. It's nine games.

131
00:06:08,748 --> 00:06:12,228
Speaker 1: He's played nine postseason games at Arrowheads a lot. He's

132
00:06:12,268 --> 00:06:15,908
Speaker 1: throw twenty six touchdowns at home at Arrowhead in the

133
00:06:15,948 --> 00:06:19,548
Speaker 1: postseason and just two picks. That is a wild advantage

134
00:06:19,548 --> 00:06:22,148
Speaker 1: that Patrick Mahomes has for the Chiefs in the postseason.

135
00:06:22,148 --> 00:06:24,588
Speaker 1: If I'm the Bills, even just one game, even if

136
00:06:24,628 --> 00:06:26,708
Speaker 1: you have to host hosts and then if you have

137
00:06:26,908 --> 00:06:29,708
Speaker 1: something crazy happens and someone's got to come in where

138
00:06:29,748 --> 00:06:32,828
Speaker 1: you didn't expect him. But it's it's that extra game

139
00:06:32,908 --> 00:06:34,588
Speaker 1: that I think, like we all know what it feels

140
00:06:34,628 --> 00:06:36,588
Speaker 1: like to work months on end. You see that vacation

141
00:06:36,708 --> 00:06:40,668
Speaker 1: what I know here, see it coming February and you're

142
00:06:40,748 --> 00:06:42,908
Speaker 1: like wait and then to have it kind of sneak

143
00:06:42,948 --> 00:06:44,588
Speaker 1: up on you and be a gifts in early January.

144
00:06:44,588 --> 00:06:47,268
Speaker 1: I think for the bodies in particular, you talked to

145
00:06:47,668 --> 00:06:50,068
Speaker 1: Josh Allen every week. I know he's one week at

146
00:06:50,108 --> 00:06:55,788
Speaker 1: a time, but you have to You've you've monitored his

147
00:06:55,828 --> 00:06:59,068
Speaker 1: emotional kind of stamina this whole way. I think he

148
00:06:59,108 --> 00:07:01,228
Speaker 1: could use a break down the stretchhair just a beat,

149
00:07:01,268 --> 00:07:04,228
Speaker 1: oh my god, because if you ask him, how big

150
00:07:04,428 --> 00:07:06,388
Speaker 1: would that one seed b for you guys? As a

151
00:07:07,228 --> 00:07:10,308
Speaker 1: lock in, we're just trying to complimentary football one game

152
00:07:10,308 --> 00:07:13,868
Speaker 1: at a time, so locked in so absolutely massive, especially him,

153
00:07:13,868 --> 00:07:16,708
Speaker 1: and like he goes to California and is by they rest,

154
00:07:16,788 --> 00:07:19,468
Speaker 1: they relax, they recover. And also I'm looking at them

155
00:07:19,468 --> 00:07:21,708
Speaker 1: a homes thing seven and two at home in the playoffs.

156
00:07:22,148 --> 00:07:25,748
Speaker 1: Both of those losses were in overtime back to Brady

157
00:07:25,788 --> 00:07:27,748
Speaker 1: and the Pats and then and then Burrow in the Bengals.

158
00:07:27,748 --> 00:07:30,508
Speaker 1: So it's like they're not even genuine losses, like they're

159
00:07:30,508 --> 00:07:32,948
Speaker 1: just they have to go extra to beat them. But

160
00:07:32,988 --> 00:07:34,708
Speaker 1: I think they could use the break bad. I think

161
00:07:34,708 --> 00:07:36,868
Speaker 1: they are getting ready for the stretch run. And it's

162
00:07:36,908 --> 00:07:39,268
Speaker 1: like that that is like the powerball right now, the AFC.

163
00:07:39,348 --> 00:07:41,268
Speaker 1: If you can get that sweet sweet bye. We talked

164
00:07:41,268 --> 00:07:43,068
Speaker 1: about this yesterday, And I think it's important to bring

165
00:07:43,148 --> 00:07:44,868
Speaker 1: up again is just what Buffalo has had to deal

166
00:07:44,908 --> 00:07:48,468
Speaker 1: with as a city team. Like the fact that they

167
00:07:48,508 --> 00:07:51,268
Speaker 1: lost von Miller earlier this month is like a blip

168
00:07:51,308 --> 00:07:53,388
Speaker 1: on this team's radar at this point, because if everything

169
00:07:53,388 --> 00:07:55,028
Speaker 1: that I have they've had to go through Buffalo has

170
00:07:55,068 --> 00:07:58,228
Speaker 1: just been under I mean the weather that has affected

171
00:07:58,268 --> 00:08:01,148
Speaker 1: this town, the team, their travel, I mean, this is

172
00:08:01,428 --> 00:08:05,308
Speaker 1: at this point, Jason, like, this is so challenge emotionally

173
00:08:05,348 --> 00:08:07,628
Speaker 1: for players to go this far down the stretch and

174
00:08:07,668 --> 00:08:09,468
Speaker 1: like it's a lot. And Kyle, I think that's like

175
00:08:09,508 --> 00:08:12,108
Speaker 1: a direct coat from you, Kylie Yester. It's a lot

176
00:08:12,148 --> 00:08:14,668
Speaker 1: to go through three back to back to back games

177
00:08:14,668 --> 00:08:17,908
Speaker 1: in twelve days. This is between Thanksgiving and early December.

178
00:08:18,108 --> 00:08:19,908
Speaker 1: You get your game, move to Detroit, you go back

179
00:08:19,908 --> 00:08:22,708
Speaker 1: to Buffalo. The weather is just NonStop. It affects your

180
00:08:22,708 --> 00:08:26,308
Speaker 1: community in a really harsh way. And so I think

181
00:08:26,348 --> 00:08:28,548
Speaker 1: that goes back to the just two games in January

182
00:08:28,788 --> 00:08:30,828
Speaker 1: at home in the postseason. That'd be a gift for

183
00:08:30,868 --> 00:08:32,788
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. Yeah, for sure. And I think when

184
00:08:32,828 --> 00:08:35,148
Speaker 1: you go through some of these things that that adversity

185
00:08:35,188 --> 00:08:38,108
Speaker 1: helps build character, helps bring your team together when they're

186
00:08:38,108 --> 00:08:40,508
Speaker 1: there and they have to stay in Chicago on Christmas Eve,

187
00:08:40,668 --> 00:08:42,788
Speaker 1: and now you're just hanging out at a local bar

188
00:08:42,988 --> 00:08:44,628
Speaker 1: and it's just you and the guys. It's almost like

189
00:08:44,668 --> 00:08:47,188
Speaker 1: being back at training camp in college where you all

190
00:08:47,228 --> 00:08:49,788
Speaker 1: stay in one dorm and you're forced to be around

191
00:08:49,788 --> 00:08:51,908
Speaker 1: each other. So it's a very nice thing to get

192
00:08:51,948 --> 00:08:54,428
Speaker 1: some camaraderie in the middle of all of that's going on.

193
00:08:54,708 --> 00:08:56,788
Speaker 1: But as I listen to everything we said at the table,

194
00:08:57,028 --> 00:09:00,868
Speaker 1: it just reaffirms that Patrick Mahomes needs the home field

195
00:09:00,868 --> 00:09:03,828
Speaker 1: advantage and the byeway because, like we just said, he's

196
00:09:03,908 --> 00:09:06,588
Speaker 1: never had to travel to play a play all game.

197
00:09:06,748 --> 00:09:09,668
Speaker 1: So for them to continue to advance way, why something different,

198
00:09:09,748 --> 00:09:11,708
Speaker 1: stay at home. If they're able to get this number

199
00:09:11,748 --> 00:09:14,188
Speaker 1: one seed, it'll be huge. But we'll see what happens.

200
00:09:14,308 --> 00:09:17,068
Speaker 1: If the Bengals were able to win Monday night against Buffalo,

201
00:09:17,188 --> 00:09:19,348
Speaker 1: like that's a table flipping thing. It's like, oh my god.

202
00:09:19,388 --> 00:09:22,628
Speaker 1: The AFC title game really is the Arrowhead invitation because

203
00:09:22,948 --> 00:09:25,948
Speaker 1: camaraderie adversity all stop Buffaloes don't through is great. You

204
00:09:25,988 --> 00:09:29,228
Speaker 1: know what else, It's just great Kelsey like Travis Kelsey,

205
00:09:29,308 --> 00:09:31,188
Speaker 1: like I'm respecting you guys have gone through it, but

206
00:09:31,228 --> 00:09:33,188
Speaker 1: I'm still Kelsey and I win every single time we

207
00:09:33,228 --> 00:09:35,988
Speaker 1: play you guys in a big game. It's the Buffalo

208
00:09:36,068 --> 00:09:38,668
Speaker 1: thing is massive too, and it's taking a very dark

209
00:09:38,708 --> 00:09:40,668
Speaker 1: turn too, Like there are people who are losing their

210
00:09:40,668 --> 00:09:42,988
Speaker 1: lives in Western New York right now, and the Bills

211
00:09:43,028 --> 00:09:45,548
Speaker 1: and Stefan and Josh are talking about it about how

212
00:09:45,748 --> 00:09:48,828
Speaker 1: we're rallying around this community. So they have massive, massive

213
00:09:48,828 --> 00:09:52,588
Speaker 1: amounts of emotional inspiration and baggage. But when it comes

214
00:09:52,628 --> 00:09:54,748
Speaker 1: time to play the game, like they gotta beat Cincinnati

215
00:09:54,868 --> 00:09:57,308
Speaker 1: and Kansas City's gonna be like held that they don't

216
00:09:57,868 --> 00:09:59,868
Speaker 1: that game Monday night. Let's just start talking about it now,

217
00:09:59,868 --> 00:10:01,388
Speaker 1: all right, Okay, we'll take a being able to talk

218
00:10:01,388 --> 00:10:03,188
Speaker 1: to Ian and then we will look ahead to that

219
00:10:03,188 --> 00:10:07,668
Speaker 1: fam call game. Ian. Big news around the league yesterday

220
00:10:07,788 --> 00:10:09,588
Speaker 1: comes out. What's the latest? What do we need to know?

221
00:10:09,628 --> 00:10:11,308
Speaker 1: What are we talking about this morning? Well, let's talk

222
00:10:11,308 --> 00:10:15,068
Speaker 1: about Twa Takavalo, the Miami Dolphins starting quarterback once again.

223
00:10:15,188 --> 00:10:18,708
Speaker 1: In the NFL's concussion protocol. This actually came up not

224
00:10:18,868 --> 00:10:22,188
Speaker 1: during the game, but after the game. Two reported symptoms

225
00:10:22,228 --> 00:10:25,548
Speaker 1: of a concussion was once again placed in the concussion protocol,

226
00:10:25,588 --> 00:10:28,628
Speaker 1: obviously not his first time this season had that very

227
00:10:28,708 --> 00:10:31,228
Speaker 1: scary hit on national TV, he was taken to a hospital,

228
00:10:31,548 --> 00:10:34,548
Speaker 1: missed two games, and then of course the situation before

229
00:10:34,668 --> 00:10:37,708
Speaker 1: that earlier on in the season when it seemed he

230
00:10:37,828 --> 00:10:39,828
Speaker 1: was out for a head injury, then later amended to

231
00:10:39,868 --> 00:10:42,988
Speaker 1: a neck injury. Either way, a lot of sad questions

232
00:10:43,028 --> 00:10:45,908
Speaker 1: about this. Doctor Alan Sills, dada US chief Medical Officers

233
00:10:45,908 --> 00:10:49,028
Speaker 1: talked to Judy Batista on Total Access last night and

234
00:10:49,108 --> 00:10:53,268
Speaker 1: said two exhibited zero injury behaviors, zero symptoms that would

235
00:10:53,308 --> 00:10:56,708
Speaker 1: have triggered the protocol during the game. So as of

236
00:10:56,788 --> 00:11:00,028
Speaker 1: now there is no investigation into this situation, obviously to

237
00:11:00,148 --> 00:11:04,268
Speaker 1: his status very much in doubt for this weekend. Meanwhile,

238
00:11:04,708 --> 00:11:08,628
Speaker 1: JJ Watt announced his retirement seemingly out of nowhere, though

239
00:11:08,628 --> 00:11:11,228
Speaker 1: my understanding this is something that jj Watt has known

240
00:11:11,308 --> 00:11:13,588
Speaker 1: for probably a couple of months that this season would

241
00:11:13,628 --> 00:11:16,668
Speaker 1: be his last, announced that he had played his final

242
00:11:16,708 --> 00:11:18,948
Speaker 1: home game, already has two more games on the road.

243
00:11:19,068 --> 00:11:20,548
Speaker 1: And you know, guys, I mean, this is one of

244
00:11:20,548 --> 00:11:23,148
Speaker 1: the true greats. Three time Defensive Player of the Year,

245
00:11:23,228 --> 00:11:26,588
Speaker 1: seven time All Pro, five time Pro Bore plus Man

246
00:11:26,628 --> 00:11:28,908
Speaker 1: of the Year after everything he did with Hurricane Harvey.

247
00:11:29,028 --> 00:11:30,628
Speaker 1: I think all of us have a moment where they

248
00:11:30,748 --> 00:11:33,708
Speaker 1: were watching a game, we're like, wow, JJ Watt is amazing.

249
00:11:33,868 --> 00:11:35,948
Speaker 1: There's so many of them. Either way, one of the

250
00:11:36,108 --> 00:11:40,948
Speaker 1: greats of all time called it a career yesterday. Yeah,

251
00:11:40,988 --> 00:11:43,828
Speaker 1: that was a surprising news. But also can't wait to

252
00:11:43,828 --> 00:11:46,388
Speaker 1: celebrate him and everything he's done in the game of football.

253
00:11:46,428 --> 00:11:47,988
Speaker 1: And as he and you mentioned away from the game

254
00:11:47,988 --> 00:11:49,828
Speaker 1: of football, we're going to talk about him later in

255
00:11:49,868 --> 00:11:52,108
Speaker 1: Good Morning Football. It's just crazy to hear after the

256
00:11:52,188 --> 00:11:53,988
Speaker 1: game he had last week, he was coming off the

257
00:11:54,028 --> 00:11:56,028
Speaker 1: line like he was twenty five years old. It was

258
00:11:56,068 --> 00:11:58,348
Speaker 1: incredible to watch rap She thanks very much. We'll talk

259
00:11:58,348 --> 00:11:59,908
Speaker 1: to you in a little bit. It's the final game

260
00:11:59,988 --> 00:12:03,108
Speaker 1: the season on Thursday Night Football and we go, oh,

261
00:12:03,148 --> 00:12:05,708
Speaker 1: it's a doozy deck. Prescott and the Cowboys take on

262
00:12:05,788 --> 00:12:08,788
Speaker 1: King Henry and the Titans. This is a musty matchup.

263
00:12:08,828 --> 00:12:10,708
Speaker 1: There's a lot of layers to it. We're gonna unpack

264
00:12:10,748 --> 00:12:13,028
Speaker 1: this one in the second hour of the show Cowboys Titans.

265
00:12:13,028 --> 00:12:16,148
Speaker 1: It's Thursday Night Football tomorrow eight fifteen pm Eastern on

Speaker 1: Prime Video. In stream it on NFL. Plus, you just

267
00:12:19,868 --> 00:12:22,628
Speaker 1: mentioned a JJ watch announced. It looks like he's going

268
00:12:22,668 --> 00:12:26,028
Speaker 1: to retire. Does this career deserve its own movie? Wow?

269
00:12:26,628 --> 00:12:29,108
Speaker 1: A JJ Watt movie? And if so, what film franchise

270
00:12:29,148 --> 00:12:31,548
Speaker 1: would be a part of? We asked the important questions here.

271
00:12:31,588 --> 00:12:34,308
Speaker 1: I'm Good Morning Football on a Wednesday. Don't go anywhere,

272
00:12:34,388 --> 00:12:51,228
Speaker 1: my friends. Hey, we're back on Good Morning Football and

273
00:12:51,228 --> 00:12:54,348
Speaker 1: it's time for white Board Wednesday, where we get to

274
00:12:54,428 --> 00:12:56,588
Speaker 1: ask questions, fill in the blanket or answers on here

275
00:12:56,588 --> 00:12:58,948
Speaker 1: and then it lives on an Let's kick it off

276
00:12:58,948 --> 00:13:01,588
Speaker 1: with the first or three questions. After a dominant display

277
00:13:01,708 --> 00:13:04,068
Speaker 1: from his defense on Monday night against the Colts, Charger's

278
00:13:04,068 --> 00:13:07,988
Speaker 1: head Brandon Stey called their efforts quote a complete performance.

279
00:13:08,188 --> 00:13:10,748
Speaker 1: It's pretty high praise the player that you want to see,

280
00:13:10,828 --> 00:13:14,468
Speaker 1: just a single player a complete performance in week seventeen

281
00:13:14,828 --> 00:13:23,108
Speaker 1: is go ahead, no Peter today. So because I'm going

282
00:13:23,188 --> 00:13:26,308
Speaker 1: with Sam Darnel. Last week we saw the running game

283
00:13:26,388 --> 00:13:29,348
Speaker 1: take off Dante for him and Chuba Hubbard went all

284
00:13:29,668 --> 00:13:32,068
Speaker 1: but Sam Darneld was efficient to two hundred and fifty

285
00:13:32,108 --> 00:13:35,508
Speaker 1: yards passing one touchdown. This guy has played really well

286
00:13:35,588 --> 00:13:37,988
Speaker 1: since he's inserted in the lineup and has done a

287
00:13:38,068 --> 00:13:40,628
Speaker 1: really good job for the Carolina Panthers. So much as

288
00:13:40,668 --> 00:13:43,988
Speaker 1: going on, the division is still up for grabs. If

289
00:13:44,028 --> 00:13:46,828
Speaker 1: you can haul it, you can have it. That is

290
00:13:46,908 --> 00:13:49,428
Speaker 1: coming straight from Kyle Brant. He said that weeks ago

291
00:13:49,508 --> 00:13:52,188
Speaker 1: with the division and it is still the case. A

292
00:13:52,308 --> 00:13:55,308
Speaker 1: huge game against Tampa Bay, going against Tom Brady, who

293
00:13:55,388 --> 00:13:57,188
Speaker 1: may have not been as best this year, but in

294
00:13:57,228 --> 00:13:59,908
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter win his winning time, the witching hour,

295
00:14:00,348 --> 00:14:03,508
Speaker 1: Tom Brady comes alive and finds a way. Sam Darnel,

296
00:14:03,628 --> 00:14:05,508
Speaker 1: you need to have a com pleat performance. You need

297
00:14:05,548 --> 00:14:07,348
Speaker 1: to be able to lead your team to victory this

298
00:14:07,468 --> 00:14:10,348
Speaker 1: week if you want to have the division a great

299
00:14:10,388 --> 00:14:14,628
Speaker 1: opportunity for Sam Donald and the Carolina Panthers. Keep pounding, pounding.

300
00:14:14,668 --> 00:14:16,508
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the guy who's got to travel

301
00:14:16,588 --> 00:14:18,228
Speaker 1: all the way across the country in order to have

302
00:14:18,268 --> 00:14:20,548
Speaker 1: a bounce back game. And that's the Mike White experience.

303
00:14:20,588 --> 00:14:22,348
Speaker 1: The Mike White lotus as well, because this is the

304
00:14:22,428 --> 00:14:24,748
Speaker 1: name of the director for the fantastic show that everybody's

305
00:14:24,788 --> 00:14:27,028
Speaker 1: raving about. Haven't seen you yet. Mike White broke a

306
00:14:27,068 --> 00:14:28,668
Speaker 1: couple of ribs a couple of weeks ago. But then

307
00:14:29,068 --> 00:14:31,108
Speaker 1: when the Jets scored a touchdown last week. I did

308
00:14:31,148 --> 00:14:33,108
Speaker 1: see you with the flicker of celebration, and I was like,

309
00:14:33,148 --> 00:14:34,988
Speaker 1: he's good to go. He's gonna bounce back. If you

310
00:14:35,068 --> 00:14:36,948
Speaker 1: can lift your arms up over then you can do this.

311
00:14:37,348 --> 00:14:39,468
Speaker 1: I really said this yesterday. I really feel for Robert

312
00:14:39,508 --> 00:14:42,268
Speaker 1: Sala and just what he is attempting to do, because

313
00:14:42,268 --> 00:14:44,828
Speaker 1: I think the Jets they have talents, they're good, the

314
00:14:44,988 --> 00:14:48,628
Speaker 1: defense is young, they're great, and they play. They're playing

315
00:14:48,708 --> 00:14:51,828
Speaker 1: really well except for that one little sneaky quarterback position,

316
00:14:51,868 --> 00:14:54,308
Speaker 1: which feels important at times. Mike Waite, make a name

317
00:14:54,348 --> 00:14:57,508
Speaker 1: for yourself, have a complete performance, and take yourself into

318
00:14:57,508 --> 00:15:00,708
Speaker 1: the offseason, perhaps with really a lot of conversation around here.

319
00:15:01,628 --> 00:15:03,908
Speaker 1: I like that they went to like ten doctors to

320
00:15:04,028 --> 00:15:09,148
Speaker 1: try to I represented our guy Peace Reggs up here,

321
00:15:09,348 --> 00:15:12,028
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna go with Jamar Chase. Jamar Chase is

322
00:15:12,028 --> 00:15:14,148
Speaker 1: We've been wrapped up all the year in this Justin

323
00:15:14,268 --> 00:15:17,508
Speaker 1: Jefferson experience, which has been great. Chase a little under

324
00:15:17,508 --> 00:15:19,548
Speaker 1: the radar, all right, this is his old college teammate,

325
00:15:19,548 --> 00:15:21,908
Speaker 1: and it was like last year was the Jamar Chase here. Well,

326
00:15:21,988 --> 00:15:24,228
Speaker 1: Jamar Chase has been playing really good the last few weeks.

327
00:15:24,228 --> 00:15:25,468
Speaker 1: You know, he was injured the middle of the year.

328
00:15:25,588 --> 00:15:27,508
Speaker 1: But you know what, I would love to see him

329
00:15:27,548 --> 00:15:30,908
Speaker 1: on Monday Night give the Bills his best punch. I

330
00:15:31,028 --> 00:15:32,788
Speaker 1: want to see if the Bills can handle that. If

331
00:15:32,868 --> 00:15:35,668
Speaker 1: Jamar Chase goes for one sixty and two, can the

332
00:15:35,708 --> 00:15:38,788
Speaker 1: Bill still win? Because there's thoughts about Buffalo secondary then

333
00:15:38,828 --> 00:15:41,308
Speaker 1: it might be a little bit suspect, and I would

334
00:15:41,348 --> 00:15:44,028
Speaker 1: love Jamar Chase to reintroduce himself just in time for

335
00:15:44,108 --> 00:15:46,148
Speaker 1: the playoffs. About Look, I know you love all these

336
00:15:46,188 --> 00:15:48,388
Speaker 1: other receivers and my guy, Justin Jervis is great, but

337
00:15:48,628 --> 00:15:50,588
Speaker 1: I'm the sensation who we got the Bengals to a

338
00:15:50,868 --> 00:15:53,668
Speaker 1: super Bowl. Jamar Chase, reintroduce yourself and that was a

339
00:15:53,708 --> 00:15:56,308
Speaker 1: great player as a superstar. Monday Night, We're ready Bills.

340
00:15:56,308 --> 00:15:58,148
Speaker 1: That'll be a challenge for them. J J. Watt, as

341
00:15:58,228 --> 00:16:00,748
Speaker 1: we mentioned, announced yesterday that he will be retiring at

342
00:16:00,788 --> 00:16:03,228
Speaker 1: the season. He's already played his final home game. He's

343
00:16:03,228 --> 00:16:05,508
Speaker 1: got two left to go. He had twelve seasons in

344
00:16:05,588 --> 00:16:08,828
Speaker 1: the league. We're not really sure what Watt we'll do next,

345
00:16:08,868 --> 00:16:11,228
Speaker 1: but we know that we'll know about it. But he

346
00:16:11,308 --> 00:16:15,028
Speaker 1: does have some experience appearing in movies and television shows.

347
00:16:15,268 --> 00:16:17,988
Speaker 1: So let's pick a movie franchise that we would love

348
00:16:18,068 --> 00:16:20,468
Speaker 1: to see JJ Watt start in that we think he

349
00:16:20,508 --> 00:16:23,268
Speaker 1: would be the perfect character for. Okay, you know when

350
00:16:23,308 --> 00:16:25,348
Speaker 1: we don't have enough movies, we don't have enough Fast

351
00:16:25,428 --> 00:16:28,108
Speaker 1: and Furious, we need more. Let's go. It would be

352
00:16:28,188 --> 00:16:31,588
Speaker 1: what maybe number fifteen. I don't know. JJ Watt and

353
00:16:31,748 --> 00:16:34,108
Speaker 1: his brothers they become the villains and the next Fast

354
00:16:34,148 --> 00:16:37,388
Speaker 1: and Furious for the villains taking on Dominic Toretto, and

355
00:16:37,508 --> 00:16:40,628
Speaker 1: they're the gang led by JJ Watt, and they're these

356
00:16:40,668 --> 00:16:43,828
Speaker 1: football players on the weekend, but during the week they're

357
00:16:43,908 --> 00:16:46,588
Speaker 1: running the game and they're just causing trouble. You have JJ,

358
00:16:46,868 --> 00:16:50,508
Speaker 1: TJ and Derek, the Watt brothers, the Watt Gang. They're

359
00:16:50,588 --> 00:16:53,668
Speaker 1: out there. JJ's leading him, he's walking around, no shirt on.

360
00:16:53,828 --> 00:16:56,428
Speaker 1: Camera's falling along and they're getting it done. So I

361
00:16:56,508 --> 00:16:59,428
Speaker 1: want to see JJ Watt and the family and a

362
00:16:59,628 --> 00:17:02,868
Speaker 1: Fast and the Furious fifteen at that point, right, I know,

363
00:17:02,988 --> 00:17:05,108
Speaker 1: because at that point someone else is retire. They're going

364
00:17:05,148 --> 00:17:06,108
Speaker 1: to be in it, so it's going to be at

365
00:17:06,188 --> 00:17:08,508
Speaker 1: least like fifteen sixteen seventeen. I had to write a

366
00:17:08,548 --> 00:17:10,388
Speaker 1: little I had to change the name of my movie,

367
00:17:10,508 --> 00:17:12,308
Speaker 1: so we've already seen him in this outfit, so I

368
00:17:12,348 --> 00:17:14,508
Speaker 1: feel like it fits immediately that JJ Watt in a

369
00:17:14,548 --> 00:17:17,148
Speaker 1: white tank top just all like sweat as got dirt

370
00:17:17,188 --> 00:17:19,308
Speaker 1: on his face and JJ Watt and die Hard needs

371
00:17:19,348 --> 00:17:22,908
Speaker 1: to happen. Jj Watt in die Hard workout Harder, I

372
00:17:22,948 --> 00:17:25,188
Speaker 1: think is what the first one should be called, because

373
00:17:25,748 --> 00:17:28,588
Speaker 1: as the summary goes, John McClean realizes that there is

374
00:17:28,708 --> 00:17:31,708
Speaker 1: no one to save, that no one can save hostages

375
00:17:31,788 --> 00:17:33,308
Speaker 1: except for him, and it just sounds like j J

376
00:17:33,428 --> 00:17:35,388
Speaker 1: Watt is that kind of hero that he could really

377
00:17:35,468 --> 00:17:37,948
Speaker 1: fulfill that for people that need him most. And he

378
00:17:38,068 --> 00:17:40,388
Speaker 1: finds himself in a precarious situation with a white tank

379
00:17:40,468 --> 00:17:42,828
Speaker 1: top on and he just has to do it gets

380
00:17:42,908 --> 00:17:44,948
Speaker 1: done in a white tank top, and it just it

381
00:17:45,068 --> 00:17:46,948
Speaker 1: feels like it fits. And then also I think what

382
00:17:47,068 --> 00:17:49,108
Speaker 1: we're knowing is that jj Watt can just kind of

383
00:17:49,188 --> 00:17:51,588
Speaker 1: keep the chapters going. So we're picking franchises that have

384
00:17:51,788 --> 00:17:53,628
Speaker 1: lots of options and could go on for years and

385
00:17:53,748 --> 00:17:55,748
Speaker 1: years and years because we need more JJ Watt. John

386
00:17:55,748 --> 00:17:57,988
Speaker 1: MacLean does a lot of talking to himself too, and

387
00:17:58,668 --> 00:17:59,948
Speaker 1: used to be miked up and he would kind of

388
00:17:59,988 --> 00:18:01,708
Speaker 1: talk to hold him like it kind of talks. Yes,

389
00:18:03,228 --> 00:18:05,948
Speaker 1: very easily baked and work got montages, I think too,

390
00:18:06,068 --> 00:18:07,708
Speaker 1: within the die hard like I have to prepare to

391
00:18:07,788 --> 00:18:11,268
Speaker 1: take down the terrors sitter in the building. So tough guy,

392
00:18:11,388 --> 00:18:13,588
Speaker 1: fast and furious, tough guy die hard. Yeah, I zag

393
00:18:13,628 --> 00:18:15,308
Speaker 1: a little bit. Guys, I'm gonna go with and I'm

394
00:18:15,308 --> 00:18:17,828
Speaker 1: gonna phrase it properly. JJ watch should be in the

395
00:18:17,908 --> 00:18:21,508
Speaker 1: Twilight saga. This is kind of perfect. I've seen those films.

396
00:18:21,628 --> 00:18:24,468
Speaker 1: I've even read those books. You got a bunch of

397
00:18:24,628 --> 00:18:27,708
Speaker 1: like beautiful looking white people and you get them together

398
00:18:27,868 --> 00:18:30,468
Speaker 1: with him and his brothers, and they're beautiful and they

399
00:18:30,548 --> 00:18:32,748
Speaker 1: love the camera and it always finds them. It's all

400
00:18:32,748 --> 00:18:34,988
Speaker 1: beautifully shot. But they're like when it's time to throw down,

401
00:18:35,068 --> 00:18:38,068
Speaker 1: like those Cullens can scrap, like they can run really fast.

402
00:18:38,268 --> 00:18:40,388
Speaker 1: And there's that big one, what's his name, Ken looks

403
00:18:40,868 --> 00:18:43,708
Speaker 1: he looks like a WAP brother. It's TJ and JJ

404
00:18:43,988 --> 00:18:46,308
Speaker 1: and and it would be kJ Kelen looks. He looks

405
00:18:46,348 --> 00:18:48,908
Speaker 1: like it and so TJ, JJ and Derek can show up.

406
00:18:48,988 --> 00:18:50,788
Speaker 1: I saw Bad Moms, the movie that he's in. He

407
00:18:50,908 --> 00:18:53,068
Speaker 1: plays like the junior high soccer coach, and he's going

408
00:18:53,148 --> 00:18:55,948
Speaker 1: back and forth with Melakuts. He's genuinely funny. He's really

409
00:18:56,068 --> 00:18:58,428
Speaker 1: really good. So I think in the Twilight Soaga where

410
00:18:58,628 --> 00:19:01,708
Speaker 1: they're being funny and intentionally, which JJ also does sometimes,

411
00:19:01,748 --> 00:19:02,908
Speaker 1: I think it could be good in that and bring

412
00:19:02,988 --> 00:19:05,108
Speaker 1: the brothers and I wreck some stuff and up some whrewolves.

413
00:19:05,188 --> 00:19:07,068
Speaker 1: I mean JJ Watt. The way he's been playing recently

414
00:19:07,108 --> 00:19:10,348
Speaker 1: has a vampire quality. You're not aging backwards at times,

415
00:19:10,508 --> 00:19:12,508
Speaker 1: which is what Edward Cullen did. Yeah, he really did,

416
00:19:12,668 --> 00:19:15,348
Speaker 1: just press pause. It's it's I'm still trying to figure

417
00:19:15,348 --> 00:19:18,188
Speaker 1: out exactly why JJ announced it now, as as a

418
00:19:18,388 --> 00:19:20,868
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, I've seen some theories a farewell tour,

419
00:19:21,388 --> 00:19:23,188
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, two weeks of the farewells? What does that mean?

420
00:19:23,348 --> 00:19:26,268
Speaker 1: Farewell tour? You go around wherever they're playing last home game,

421
00:19:26,308 --> 00:19:28,788
Speaker 1: everybody gets to celebrate JJ watch. So if I wouldn't

422
00:19:28,908 --> 00:19:30,708
Speaker 1: to do it before the last home game next you

423
00:19:30,748 --> 00:19:32,788
Speaker 1: can really like soak in maybe so now you got

424
00:19:32,908 --> 00:19:35,468
Speaker 1: to go somewhere else Arizona, or maybe you just do

425
00:19:35,508 --> 00:19:39,908
Speaker 1: it after the last game and maybe oh, J J Watt,

426
00:19:39,988 --> 00:19:41,428
Speaker 1: what do you mean we want to celebrate it on

427
00:19:41,548 --> 00:19:44,268
Speaker 1: then do it for seventeen games like the random two

428
00:19:44,348 --> 00:19:46,588
Speaker 1: games left, But you don't know in September maybe if

429
00:19:46,588 --> 00:19:49,828
Speaker 1: you're gonna retire. But the way we're going now with retirements,

430
00:19:49,868 --> 00:19:51,188
Speaker 1: like he could have done it five times over in

431
00:19:51,228 --> 00:19:54,028
Speaker 1: the season and we would have not Maybe it comes back. Hey, listen,

432
00:19:54,268 --> 00:19:56,748
Speaker 1: Larry Fitzgerald still hasn't announced it, like he could have

433
00:19:56,828 --> 00:19:58,628
Speaker 1: done that. I still don't know if he's done the

434
00:19:58,708 --> 00:20:01,748
Speaker 1: time he is interesting? Yeah, what is interesting? Good Morning

435
00:20:01,868 --> 00:20:06,268
Speaker 1: Football is presented by Old Trapper Beef Jerky. What's your beef?

436
00:20:07,908 --> 00:20:10,828
Speaker 1: That's a squad right there. What's your beef? That's the question,

437
00:20:10,908 --> 00:20:13,148
Speaker 1: and that's what it's time for. Jamie. I understand you

438
00:20:13,228 --> 00:20:15,108
Speaker 1: have a take and you have a beef with something. Well,

439
00:20:15,188 --> 00:20:17,708
Speaker 1: I have found some people that exist in the world

440
00:20:17,748 --> 00:20:20,108
Speaker 1: that have such a beef with a certain team in

441
00:20:20,148 --> 00:20:22,068
Speaker 1: the NFL that I had to highlight. Okay, what do

442
00:20:22,108 --> 00:20:25,228
Speaker 1: you got? So the baseline reason we all love football

443
00:20:25,588 --> 00:20:27,548
Speaker 1: sports in general, doesn't matter if you just change a

444
00:20:27,628 --> 00:20:29,468
Speaker 1: channel and got to us. It's just you like sports.

445
00:20:29,548 --> 00:20:32,148
Speaker 1: Say here, it's because it's competition. You want to win,

446
00:20:32,508 --> 00:20:34,428
Speaker 1: You want to see your team win. You want to

447
00:20:34,468 --> 00:20:38,028
Speaker 1: see the team that beats your team loose. Seeing the

448
00:20:38,108 --> 00:20:41,628
Speaker 1: team that neighbors yours and maintaining an utter disdain for

449
00:20:41,788 --> 00:20:45,948
Speaker 1: them absolutely commonplace. This is a story of fantasy football

450
00:20:46,028 --> 00:20:49,548
Speaker 1: lovers alike because you can quite quickly identify the villain

451
00:20:49,588 --> 00:20:51,428
Speaker 1: in this story and apply it to your own life.

452
00:20:51,508 --> 00:20:55,308
Speaker 1: For example, Yankees fans, you don't want someone mockingly asking

453
00:20:55,388 --> 00:20:58,148
Speaker 1: you who's your daddy, and you definitely don't own a

454
00:20:58,228 --> 00:21:00,868
Speaker 1: pair of Red Sox Lakers fans. Everyone seems to be

455
00:21:00,908 --> 00:21:02,388
Speaker 1: annoyed with you, so we're just going to move on

456
00:21:02,468 --> 00:21:04,188
Speaker 1: with that. But you know how it feels, you get

457
00:21:04,428 --> 00:21:07,788
Speaker 1: a stain across the board. It's accepted in sports. How

458
00:21:07,828 --> 00:21:10,748
Speaker 1: about Vikings Packers? Though playing this weekend, felt like a

459
00:21:10,788 --> 00:21:13,468
Speaker 1: good time to display what this rivalry looks like from

460
00:21:13,868 --> 00:21:16,308
Speaker 1: the western side of the Mississippi River. A couple of

461
00:21:16,348 --> 00:21:18,708
Speaker 1: weeks ago, I was back home in Minnesota for game

462
00:21:18,788 --> 00:21:21,188
Speaker 1: day morning for the incredible Cults Vikings game. But the

463
00:21:21,268 --> 00:21:22,948
Speaker 1: night before, I went to dinner with friends. A man

464
00:21:22,988 --> 00:21:25,748
Speaker 1: approached our table and he said, Hi, my name is Charlie.

465
00:21:25,828 --> 00:21:28,388
Speaker 1: I graduated from the same high school that you did,

466
00:21:28,668 --> 00:21:30,148
Speaker 1: a couple of years ahead of you can I have

467
00:21:30,188 --> 00:21:31,548
Speaker 1: a minute of your time to tell me about your

468
00:21:31,588 --> 00:21:34,628
Speaker 1: fantasy tell me about your fantasy football league. I was like, seriously, Charlie,

469
00:21:34,668 --> 00:21:36,588
Speaker 1: this is what we're gonna interrupt dinner for. But we'll

470
00:21:36,628 --> 00:21:39,148
Speaker 1: go with it. Charlie graduated high school in the mid

471
00:21:39,268 --> 00:21:41,148
Speaker 1: nineties from the same high school, probably a fan of

472
00:21:41,228 --> 00:21:44,108
Speaker 1: Drew Hill, and he's had the same fantasy football league

473
00:21:44,148 --> 00:21:46,228
Speaker 1: for the last twenty years with all guys that went

474
00:21:46,308 --> 00:21:48,948
Speaker 1: to my high school. It's your typical fantasy football league,

475
00:21:49,108 --> 00:21:51,548
Speaker 1: except for one thing. One thing really caught my ear.

476
00:21:51,708 --> 00:21:55,388
Speaker 1: Packers players are banned in no league. Packers players are banned.

477
00:21:55,428 --> 00:21:57,428
Speaker 1: You can't draft them. That's right. This league does not

478
00:21:57,508 --> 00:22:00,428
Speaker 1: allow a single Packer player to be drafted. No Aaron Rodgers,

479
00:22:00,908 --> 00:22:03,828
Speaker 1: no Christian Watson, no Aaron Jones. They do not exist

480
00:22:03,988 --> 00:22:06,468
Speaker 1: in their points system. Now, for as deep as the

481
00:22:06,548 --> 00:22:09,548
Speaker 1: Packers annoyance runs in this league, you'd think the rules

482
00:22:09,948 --> 00:22:12,508
Speaker 1: would apply to across the board. But that's not just

483
00:22:12,588 --> 00:22:14,908
Speaker 1: what summs this lead up. Nope. In fact, it's the

484
00:22:14,988 --> 00:22:17,708
Speaker 1: group's pathologic true love for the Vikings that is the

485
00:22:17,748 --> 00:22:20,988
Speaker 1: backbone here. So the Packers, they're bad guys out of here.

486
00:22:21,028 --> 00:22:23,348
Speaker 1: We got that. Here's the next layer. If you start

487
00:22:23,428 --> 00:22:26,148
Speaker 1: a player on a team that is playing against the

488
00:22:26,308 --> 00:22:28,548
Speaker 1: Vikings that week, you are put on a list list.

489
00:22:28,748 --> 00:22:31,828
Speaker 1: You're considered treasonist, and you are subjected to their infamous

490
00:22:32,308 --> 00:22:36,308
Speaker 1: betrayer report. By the end of the year, if you

491
00:22:36,428 --> 00:22:40,028
Speaker 1: are the unfortunate holder of the fantasy team with players

492
00:22:40,068 --> 00:22:43,348
Speaker 1: who scored the most points against the Vikings, you are

493
00:22:43,388 --> 00:22:46,268
Speaker 1: relentlessly harassed for being atop the betrayer report list for

494
00:22:46,308 --> 00:22:51,348
Speaker 1: the entire offseason. You are the ultimate betrayer blake every

495
00:22:51,388 --> 00:22:54,508
Speaker 1: other fantasy league naturally, there's a wrestling style championship belt,

496
00:22:54,628 --> 00:22:57,188
Speaker 1: which the guys who win get to obtain for the offseason.

497
00:22:57,228 --> 00:22:59,308
Speaker 1: You're encouraged to share photos at the belt in your

498
00:22:59,388 --> 00:23:02,668
Speaker 1: daily life. This belt has been photographed across the country

499
00:23:03,228 --> 00:23:08,828
Speaker 1: at weddings with newborn babies, and my personal favorite, in

500
00:23:08,948 --> 00:23:12,148
Speaker 1: a pregnancy photo shoot. Yes, indeed this fell. Yeah, she's

501
00:23:12,148 --> 00:23:14,868
Speaker 1: got her baby bump. And then this is Charlie holding

502
00:23:14,908 --> 00:23:17,388
Speaker 1: the belt. Seriously, I'm sure his wife was strolled about this.

503
00:23:17,468 --> 00:23:19,788
Speaker 1: She actually looks committed to the team. On the other

504
00:23:19,908 --> 00:23:22,748
Speaker 1: end of the spectrum, whoever finishes last in this league

505
00:23:22,988 --> 00:23:25,748
Speaker 1: is forced to prominently display a trophy that is less

506
00:23:25,748 --> 00:23:27,988
Speaker 1: than appropriate for morning television in their homes. It was

507
00:23:28,028 --> 00:23:30,868
Speaker 1: described to me as a free anatomy lesson for any

508
00:23:30,988 --> 00:23:34,628
Speaker 1: manager with young children. That's true, let that trophy he cannot.

509
00:23:37,068 --> 00:23:39,268
Speaker 1: My brief chat with my new friend Charlie it gave

510
00:23:39,308 --> 00:23:41,188
Speaker 1: me a lot of warm fuzzies for the hatred that

511
00:23:41,268 --> 00:23:44,548
Speaker 1: is entrenched in football and rivalries, because at the end

512
00:23:44,588 --> 00:23:46,468
Speaker 1: of the day, this league is compiled of four things

513
00:23:46,508 --> 00:23:49,548
Speaker 1: that we all well know and love. Lifelong friendships, a

514
00:23:49,668 --> 00:23:53,068
Speaker 1: collective disdain for all things Packers and obsession with the Vikings,

515
00:23:53,468 --> 00:23:57,668
Speaker 1: and one inappropriate trophy. Can you imagine what the guys

516
00:23:57,748 --> 00:24:00,508
Speaker 1: from the Back to the Roots League feel this weekend?

517
00:24:00,708 --> 00:24:02,948
Speaker 1: To hell with their rosters. The Vikings have a chance

518
00:24:02,988 --> 00:24:05,628
Speaker 1: to do something they haven't done in five years sweep

519
00:24:05,708 --> 00:24:09,028
Speaker 1: the regular season series against that team from Wisconsin. So

520
00:24:09,188 --> 00:24:12,028
Speaker 1: while the Packers don't exist in the imaginations of the

521
00:24:12,188 --> 00:24:16,108
Speaker 1: Special League, they most certainly will be a reality on

522
00:24:16,188 --> 00:24:19,388
Speaker 1: the frozen tundra of Lambeau this Sunday afternoon. Could there

523
00:24:19,428 --> 00:24:20,948
Speaker 1: be a more fitting way to ring in the first

524
00:24:21,028 --> 00:24:23,148
Speaker 1: day of twenty twenty three for these guys with zero

525
00:24:23,428 --> 00:24:26,108
Speaker 1: entrance on the Betrayer Report this week, because again, in

526
00:24:26,188 --> 00:24:28,748
Speaker 1: this forty something collective group of brains, the Packers do

527
00:24:28,868 --> 00:24:31,988
Speaker 1: not exist. Then watching their beloved Vikings well up against

528
00:24:31,988 --> 00:24:34,988
Speaker 1: their arch rivals, this fantasy football league. I was obsessed

529
00:24:35,068 --> 00:24:38,948
Speaker 1: with learning guys, the Betrayer Report, the Championship Belt, the

530
00:24:39,108 --> 00:24:41,788
Speaker 1: Anti Packer League. I mean, my god, it was like

531
00:24:41,908 --> 00:24:44,388
Speaker 1: everything I wanted baked into a league. What are you

532
00:24:44,428 --> 00:24:47,068
Speaker 1: guys think? It's a great great great stories. I mean,

533
00:24:47,068 --> 00:24:48,668
Speaker 1: I'd love to have the pictures to prove it. I

534
00:24:48,788 --> 00:24:50,268
Speaker 1: do have a question, like, all right, so you're in

535
00:24:50,428 --> 00:24:53,308
Speaker 1: Charlie's league and it's a critical week coming down the stretch,

536
00:24:53,388 --> 00:24:55,708
Speaker 1: and you're like, well, you know, I got Philip Rivers

537
00:24:55,788 --> 00:24:58,468
Speaker 1: on by, There's Rogers sitting there right there on the

538
00:24:58,548 --> 00:25:00,828
Speaker 1: waivers winning MVPs. Maybe I just throw them into my

539
00:25:00,948 --> 00:25:03,188
Speaker 1: roster for one week. Oh god, Earns, you just top

540
00:25:03,228 --> 00:25:05,268
Speaker 1: of the like you're just for the season. You're the

541
00:25:05,348 --> 00:25:08,068
Speaker 1: ultimate prety. Here's the other thing about the inappropriate trophy.

542
00:25:08,228 --> 00:25:10,588
Speaker 1: They have a rule that if you get texted something

543
00:25:10,748 --> 00:25:12,988
Speaker 1: that says you have to go and take a selfie

544
00:25:13,068 --> 00:25:16,348
Speaker 1: with the inappropriate trophy within like the hour. If they're

545
00:25:16,388 --> 00:25:18,268
Speaker 1: like rush back to your house and be like, yeah,

546
00:25:18,348 --> 00:25:20,668
Speaker 1: here it is. I'm full display in my home, just

547
00:25:20,868 --> 00:25:23,748
Speaker 1: carried around with you. But for me, I'd rather earn

548
00:25:23,828 --> 00:25:25,788
Speaker 1: the belt. I don't care about the betrayer report. Put

549
00:25:25,828 --> 00:25:27,908
Speaker 1: me on the top if I get the belt, especially

550
00:25:27,948 --> 00:25:29,948
Speaker 1: if you've watched the Vikings defense. If I have an

551
00:25:29,948 --> 00:25:31,988
Speaker 1: offensive guy playing against him, I'm putting him in a

552
00:25:32,028 --> 00:25:34,748
Speaker 1: game because he's probably gonna go off, so wins a win.

553
00:25:34,868 --> 00:25:39,428
Speaker 1: Give me the belt. Maybe the betrayer list will become

554
00:25:39,428 --> 00:25:41,428
Speaker 1: commonplace now in fantasy football. We should run it by

555
00:25:41,428 --> 00:25:43,788
Speaker 1: Adam Rank when we get him on Let's talk Cowboys

556
00:25:43,868 --> 00:25:45,788
Speaker 1: at the top of the next hour on Good Morning Football.

557
00:25:46,028 --> 00:25:47,788
Speaker 1: How about someone approaching Jamie and arrest and being like,

558
00:25:47,828 --> 00:26:01,908
Speaker 1: can I tell you about my fantasy league? Yea. Let's

559
00:26:01,948 --> 00:26:05,948
Speaker 1: take a look at first the NFC playoff picture. You

560
00:26:06,108 --> 00:26:09,828
Speaker 1: know the teams. It's that one with a beautiful lone

561
00:26:09,988 --> 00:26:11,748
Speaker 1: star at the top of your screen that we're going

562
00:26:11,828 --> 00:26:13,988
Speaker 1: to focus on here, because the Cowboys are taken on

563
00:26:14,028 --> 00:26:16,548
Speaker 1: the Titans. They are the five seed with a shot

564
00:26:16,788 --> 00:26:19,468
Speaker 1: stealing the NFC East from the Eagles, which is shocking

565
00:26:19,508 --> 00:26:21,228
Speaker 1: because the Eagles have just been found on the left

566
00:26:21,228 --> 00:26:23,388
Speaker 1: side of your screen all year long. But there is

567
00:26:23,388 --> 00:26:25,788
Speaker 1: a chance if Dallas wins out and Philly drops their

568
00:26:25,868 --> 00:26:28,468
Speaker 1: last two, Cowboys would be division champs and the Eagles

569
00:26:28,668 --> 00:26:31,748
Speaker 1: go to fifth. But all that becomes a move point

570
00:26:31,828 --> 00:26:34,988
Speaker 1: if the Cowboys lose to the Titans. Here's Cowboys executive

571
00:26:35,028 --> 00:26:37,948
Speaker 1: vice president Stephen Jones on the confidence he has in

572
00:26:38,108 --> 00:26:42,308
Speaker 1: Dallas heading into this postseason. Certainly, as we move forward,

573
00:26:42,468 --> 00:26:44,268
Speaker 1: you know, we've got a lot of confidence and know

574
00:26:44,508 --> 00:26:46,468
Speaker 1: that as we move forward, we'll be able to move

575
00:26:46,548 --> 00:26:49,228
Speaker 1: to football and have confidence will move to football. On

576
00:26:49,388 --> 00:26:51,988
Speaker 1: top of that, I think our defense will step up

577
00:26:52,028 --> 00:26:53,868
Speaker 1: and make plays for us. I think we're right at

578
00:26:53,908 --> 00:26:56,268
Speaker 1: the top of the league on turnovers in terms of

579
00:26:56,388 --> 00:26:59,908
Speaker 1: creating turnovers, and I think that'll continue. I think between

580
00:26:59,988 --> 00:27:02,908
Speaker 1: the pressure and where our back ends playing certainly points

581
00:27:02,948 --> 00:27:05,908
Speaker 1: to us having a lot of confidence in being able

582
00:27:05,988 --> 00:27:09,388
Speaker 1: to have success in the playoffs. All right, two weeks

583
00:27:09,468 --> 00:27:11,548
Speaker 1: left in the season, we have to unpack some of

584
00:27:11,588 --> 00:27:15,068
Speaker 1: this for the Cowboys and as their regular season winds down,

585
00:27:15,468 --> 00:27:17,508
Speaker 1: one of those games being a Thursday night football game

586
00:27:17,508 --> 00:27:19,988
Speaker 1: against the Titans. What do we make of this matchup?

587
00:27:20,068 --> 00:27:23,188
Speaker 1: This team, Kyle, how they handle this situation? Moving forward.

588
00:27:23,828 --> 00:27:27,228
Speaker 1: Here's what you do. Win your last two games, okay,

589
00:27:27,708 --> 00:27:29,508
Speaker 1: And I far be it for me to tell someone

590
00:27:29,588 --> 00:27:31,908
Speaker 1: to say, take it one game at a time. Take

591
00:27:31,948 --> 00:27:34,188
Speaker 1: it one game at a time, all right, because what

592
00:27:34,308 --> 00:27:36,188
Speaker 1: happens is the end of the season, especially a team

593
00:27:36,268 --> 00:27:40,388
Speaker 1: like this, there's so high profile and so celebrated that

594
00:27:40,428 --> 00:27:41,628
Speaker 1: when you get towards the end of the year and

595
00:27:41,628 --> 00:27:43,428
Speaker 1: you've got a good record, you start getting real excited,

596
00:27:43,468 --> 00:27:45,148
Speaker 1: like you want to start opening your presence before you

597
00:27:45,228 --> 00:27:48,628
Speaker 1: got them. Just take it easy. I'm seeing quotes from

598
00:27:48,708 --> 00:27:52,108
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones about meeting in Philadelphia a third time and

599
00:27:52,228 --> 00:27:55,908
Speaker 1: selling in Das like I'm confident will happen. Jackie, you're

600
00:27:55,948 --> 00:27:58,188
Speaker 1: one and three in the playoffs. That's it, all right.

601
00:27:58,748 --> 00:28:00,348
Speaker 1: Since you guys won the Super Bowl when I was

602
00:28:00,428 --> 00:28:03,748
Speaker 1: in high school, you have four total playoff wins. That's hits.

603
00:28:04,108 --> 00:28:07,188
Speaker 1: So let's finish the last couple of games. Let's have

604
00:28:07,308 --> 00:28:10,148
Speaker 1: a nice wildcard round and just win this thing. It's

605
00:28:10,188 --> 00:28:13,708
Speaker 1: there's I get accused of being a hater. Yeah, I

606
00:28:13,788 --> 00:28:16,228
Speaker 1: have nothing personal against the Cowboys at all at all.

607
00:28:16,428 --> 00:28:18,068
Speaker 1: I grew up loving the Cowboys and it was my

608
00:28:18,108 --> 00:28:20,588
Speaker 1: favorite player. I've just seen this movie. So many times

609
00:28:20,708 --> 00:28:22,108
Speaker 1: we get here and they have a good record and

610
00:28:22,188 --> 00:28:24,628
Speaker 1: good players and famous players and the owners talking and

611
00:28:24,788 --> 00:28:27,228
Speaker 1: it just doesn't end well. And I just I'm waiting

612
00:28:27,388 --> 00:28:30,268
Speaker 1: now for months to see why this team is different

613
00:28:30,388 --> 00:28:33,268
Speaker 1: than any other Cowboys team I've seen. And forget ancient history,

614
00:28:33,548 --> 00:28:37,908
Speaker 1: recent history, Dak teams, last year's team. Last year's team

615
00:28:37,948 --> 00:28:39,788
Speaker 1: looked really good and they were at home and they

616
00:28:39,828 --> 00:28:41,628
Speaker 1: were playing the Niners, and they're like, oh, the Cowboys

617
00:28:41,628 --> 00:28:43,908
Speaker 1: should win. I still don't see why. I like a

618
00:28:43,988 --> 00:28:45,828
Speaker 1: lot of things about them, but like when I start

619
00:28:45,948 --> 00:28:48,228
Speaker 1: hearing them saying, oh, this feels special and I would

620
00:28:48,268 --> 00:28:52,268
Speaker 1: love to see Philadelphia again. Never mind Philadelphia, about Tennessee Titans,

621
00:28:52,428 --> 00:28:54,748
Speaker 1: who are gonna be out to save their lives on Thursday.

622
00:28:54,828 --> 00:28:57,508
Speaker 1: They win that game, they win the last game, and

623
00:28:57,588 --> 00:29:00,068
Speaker 1: then a nice little wildcard victory, and then we'll get

624
00:29:00,108 --> 00:29:02,148
Speaker 1: to work. That's how I feel. It's just cart before

625
00:29:02,148 --> 00:29:04,268
Speaker 1: the horse, you know what I'm saying, Like, let's folk

626
00:29:04,468 --> 00:29:06,388
Speaker 1: us a little bit here. This is really tricky for

627
00:29:06,468 --> 00:29:09,508
Speaker 1: the Cowboys because Kyle, you nailed it like the Titans.

628
00:29:09,628 --> 00:29:12,228
Speaker 1: While some could argue that, like, don't play their guys

629
00:29:12,268 --> 00:29:14,228
Speaker 1: because the only game it matters to the Titans, which

630
00:29:14,228 --> 00:29:16,228
Speaker 1: we'll talk about this is the week a team game.

631
00:29:16,308 --> 00:29:18,508
Speaker 1: That was what Peter was saying yesterday, like, oh, Titans,

632
00:29:18,748 --> 00:29:21,188
Speaker 1: doesn't matter what happens. No, you have to figure it

633
00:29:21,268 --> 00:29:23,108
Speaker 1: out fast. If you're the Titans, you have to figure

634
00:29:23,148 --> 00:29:25,028
Speaker 1: out what's going on. If you make it into a

635
00:29:25,148 --> 00:29:28,588
Speaker 1: fighting spot in the postseason, you better have your identity, right, Commanders.

636
00:29:28,748 --> 00:29:31,188
Speaker 1: Let's remember who played spoiler to the Eagles perfect season

637
00:29:31,348 --> 00:29:34,108
Speaker 1: not so long ago. Was the Commander? So what sweet

638
00:29:34,548 --> 00:29:36,708
Speaker 1: tune that would be for Washington if they could do

639
00:29:36,828 --> 00:29:39,428
Speaker 1: that to the Cowboys. I look at Dak Prescott once again,

640
00:29:39,428 --> 00:29:41,508
Speaker 1: it's a nice round number. He's played ten games this

641
00:29:41,628 --> 00:29:44,028
Speaker 1: season due to injury. His first five games he had

642
00:29:44,068 --> 00:29:46,788
Speaker 1: four picks. His last five games he's at eight. But

643
00:29:46,948 --> 00:29:50,108
Speaker 1: what's odd is that the Cowboys offense is actually producing

644
00:29:50,188 --> 00:29:52,748
Speaker 1: at a much higher rate in the last five compared

645
00:29:52,748 --> 00:29:55,868
Speaker 1: to the first five. They're scoring eight points more per game.

646
00:29:56,108 --> 00:29:57,908
Speaker 1: What does that look like? Does that mean that Dak

647
00:29:58,108 --> 00:30:01,748
Speaker 1: is taking deeper shots, He's taking higher risk and there's

648
00:30:01,788 --> 00:30:04,908
Speaker 1: more reward there. But man, the risk, it's uggle at times.

649
00:30:04,948 --> 00:30:07,308
Speaker 1: It puts them in bad spots against the Jaguars. It

650
00:30:07,468 --> 00:30:09,468
Speaker 1: kicked off last week's game with the pick, and you're like,

651
00:30:09,628 --> 00:30:12,188
Speaker 1: oh boy, here we go back to back picks over

652
00:30:12,268 --> 00:30:13,908
Speaker 1: a span of two games. What is going on at

653
00:30:13,948 --> 00:30:16,548
Speaker 1: deck that last week's game was great and it was needed.

654
00:30:16,668 --> 00:30:19,028
Speaker 1: Cowboys had to beat the Eagles. The Eagles were without

655
00:30:19,108 --> 00:30:21,548
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts, of course, But I look at Dak and like,

656
00:30:21,748 --> 00:30:23,908
Speaker 1: are you showing us a side of you that we

657
00:30:23,988 --> 00:30:25,868
Speaker 1: had not seen before? Which is a more of a

658
00:30:26,028 --> 00:30:28,068
Speaker 1: risk take her quarterback? But here it comes with a

659
00:30:28,108 --> 00:30:31,188
Speaker 1: side of points and extra yards. But what is that

660
00:30:31,308 --> 00:30:32,988
Speaker 1: going to come at? What risk will you put your

661
00:30:33,028 --> 00:30:35,428
Speaker 1: team into? In January? So I look at him. Is

662
00:30:35,428 --> 00:30:37,268
Speaker 1: he gonna rise to the occasion because he has to

663
00:30:37,308 --> 00:30:39,868
Speaker 1: be the difference? Yeah, you've mentioned identity, And I look

664
00:30:39,908 --> 00:30:42,548
Speaker 1: at the Cowboys defense because for them, they've been a

665
00:30:42,668 --> 00:30:45,948
Speaker 1: strong part of their games and their winning games this season,

666
00:30:46,028 --> 00:30:48,588
Speaker 1: and their defense is almost like that crazy like college

667
00:30:48,628 --> 00:30:51,468
Speaker 1: girlfriend you have where there's times where she just drives

668
00:30:51,508 --> 00:30:53,948
Speaker 1: you insane. You're like what am I doing? But there's

669
00:30:53,988 --> 00:30:55,948
Speaker 1: those moments where it's just like, Oh, that's why I

670
00:30:56,028 --> 00:30:58,628
Speaker 1: love this woman. She's crazy, but my goodness, and those

671
00:30:58,708 --> 00:31:01,508
Speaker 1: moments happen different times, different for those moments. We're not

672
00:31:01,548 --> 00:31:04,028
Speaker 1: gonna get into detailing that. You don't have it. It's

673
00:31:04,068 --> 00:31:06,468
Speaker 1: a morning show. And you look at her, and that's

674
00:31:06,508 --> 00:31:09,308
Speaker 1: the Cowboys defense because in these last three games, they've

675
00:31:09,308 --> 00:31:12,108
Speaker 1: given up ninety seven points, averaging over thirty points a

676
00:31:12,188 --> 00:31:14,948
Speaker 1: game on defense, but they're taking the ball away as

677
00:31:15,028 --> 00:31:18,108
Speaker 1: such a high clip with Stephen Jones mention those three games,

678
00:31:18,268 --> 00:31:22,908
Speaker 1: they have nine takeaways, multiple interceptions, forcing fumbles, and that's

679
00:31:22,948 --> 00:31:24,468
Speaker 1: what has been all about. You look at this past

680
00:31:24,548 --> 00:31:27,588
Speaker 1: Ego games. They have four turnovers in that game, and

681
00:31:27,788 --> 00:31:30,948
Speaker 1: that's how you have the ability to win even when

682
00:31:31,108 --> 00:31:34,188
Speaker 1: Dak has interceptions, when they're still putting points up because

683
00:31:34,188 --> 00:31:36,548
Speaker 1: their defense is taken it away and they're leading the

684
00:31:36,708 --> 00:31:39,628
Speaker 1: NFL right now with thirty takeaways. But why are they

685
00:31:39,668 --> 00:31:41,788
Speaker 1: giving up so many points? Why are they giving up

686
00:31:42,028 --> 00:31:44,348
Speaker 1: the big plays, a double move to Zay Jones down

687
00:31:44,388 --> 00:31:47,148
Speaker 1: the sideline, Gardner Mischu putting up over three hundred and

688
00:31:47,188 --> 00:31:50,628
Speaker 1: fifty yards passing in this past game. So it drives

689
00:31:50,668 --> 00:31:52,628
Speaker 1: you crazy when you washed them, because it's just like

690
00:31:52,908 --> 00:31:56,188
Speaker 1: the amount of talent, the amount of potential. Michael Michael

691
00:31:56,228 --> 00:31:59,188
Speaker 1: Parsons then you have digs in the secondary, but you're

692
00:31:59,228 --> 00:32:01,628
Speaker 1: still trying to put your finger on why the games

693
00:32:01,668 --> 00:32:03,868
Speaker 1: are ending and they're plus thirty points and putting it

694
00:32:03,908 --> 00:32:06,788
Speaker 1: all up. But our girlfriend, my goodness, the way she

695
00:32:06,868 --> 00:32:09,268
Speaker 1: can make you feeling let's go. You'll take it. So

696
00:32:09,668 --> 00:32:11,708
Speaker 1: continue to take the ball away and you can find

697
00:32:11,788 --> 00:32:14,308
Speaker 1: ways to win those games can play, you know, like

698
00:32:14,428 --> 00:32:17,028
Speaker 1: my reference Bill drew Ill in the in the bar

699
00:32:17,228 --> 00:32:20,068
Speaker 1: right talking about it. I know. Um coming up on

700
00:32:20,108 --> 00:32:22,428
Speaker 1: Go Morning Football two time to my law. Unfortunately is

701
00:32:22,468 --> 00:32:26,068
Speaker 1: back in concussion protocol. Our own Judy Bautista and the

702
00:32:26,228 --> 00:32:29,988
Speaker 1: NFL's chief Medical Officer, doctor Allan Sills, have a discussion

703
00:32:30,188 --> 00:32:34,548
Speaker 1: about his status. Later on plus NFC South, Oh, our

704
00:32:34,628 --> 00:32:38,468
Speaker 1: sweet sweet NFC South. We love it. Who's gonna take it?

705
00:32:38,828 --> 00:32:40,388
Speaker 1: You don't even have to pay for it. It's free.

706
00:32:40,828 --> 00:32:43,988
Speaker 1: If you can haul it, you can have it. And

707
00:32:44,148 --> 00:32:46,228
Speaker 1: yet no one's haul it. We'll get into it after this.

708
00:32:46,468 --> 00:32:48,548
Speaker 1: No one's come to pick it up. No, does anybody

709
00:32:48,588 --> 00:32:49,188
Speaker 1: have to pick up
