Luckily it 198 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 2: kind of beached itself on the sand pottom boat. So, yeah, 199 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 2: I went through a bridge tunnel, you know, probably twenty 200 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 2: feet wide, concrete like on both sides. 201 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,719 Speaker 1: Do you think it like a bumper card through there? 202 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: Do you think it just I mean, it. 203 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 2: Didn't look like there was any big like scuffs or 204 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 2: any of that kind of stuff on there. But luckily 205 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 2: again you know, wow, But yeah, apparently the lift was 206 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 2: not engaged all the way. So we did not take 207 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,199 Speaker 2: the boat out the other day. This is the blame. 208 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:45,680 Speaker 2: The blame goes on somebody else. 209 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 1: But thankfully, yeah. 210 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 2: We would never be able to go back. 211 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: Well that's a heck of a way to start the day. 212 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 1: And then you guys rush to go deal golf with 213 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 1: us and meet up with me and Kyle. How'd you shoot? 214 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,559 Speaker 1: We were in different I know we were playing scramb 215 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: uh scramble right that we were doing. Yeah, how'd you shoot? 216 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:09,559 Speaker 2: The driver was awful? Yeah, but my irons. Irons were 217 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 2: looking pretty good. 218 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: That's kind of my day too. I learned if I 219 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 1: give a if I give a lean to the left 220 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 1: off the drive, I could do. Okay. It was never 221 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 1: the drive we would take. 222 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 2: But it was. 223 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: It was better. And then but then the iron play, Yeah, 224 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 1: I was all day. They were taking my shots. 225 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 2: So one of the guys in my group, he came 226 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 2: in from out of town. Uh, his dad is an 227 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 2: avid golfer, and so Cody's just like, hey, I don't 228 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 2: I don't want to bring my clubs. I don't want 229 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 2: to fly him up there. Hey, we're only going to 230 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 2: golf nine. You know that draft morning don't want to 231 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,679 Speaker 2: deal with it. So his dad's like, hey, I put 232 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 2: a bag together for you. So luckily Cody was hitting 233 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 2: the driver very well. Uh so we used a lot 234 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 2: of his drives on it because his dad gave him 235 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 2: a driver and two woods. The remainder of Cody's bags 236 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 2: was all ladies clubs, which I mean, Cody's a tall guy. 237 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 2: He's six foot yeah, so but yeah, he would go 238 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 2: out there, and then we agree, yeah, how. 239 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 1: Tall is his dad? 240 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 2: I think a little bit shorter. 241 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,679 Speaker 1: Okay, that makes sense, but yeah, well he's club a 242 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: little more forgiving, so probably. 243 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, so he was. He was really leaned down with 244 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 2: these ladies. And then the other thing too, is like 245 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 2: all these clubs are right handed and Cody is left handed. 246 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,440 Speaker 2: So I love the fact that left hand are using 247 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 2: right handed ladies clubs. That was That was you know 248 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 2: one of our members. 249 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 1: That's also to go for. 250 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 2: Well. 251 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 1: It was fun, you know it was. There was a 252 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 1: couple of times where our group's kind of you know, 253 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 1: met up there. 254 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,319 Speaker 2: Yeah.

I flipped you off, yeah, 256 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 2: like two big fingers like you were waving around dancing. 257 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: Do you remember what hold that was? I'm trying to 258 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 1: think mentally where I was at, like, maybe did something happen? 259 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 2: I think you're just being a dick. 260 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 1: Did I miss a putt? 261 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 2: This seemed like happy? Yeah, you were dancing around, flipping 262 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 2: people off. 263 00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:22,680 Speaker 1: Was I in the cart or not? 264 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 2: You were not? 265 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 1: I was not in the car. I was dancing. Yeah, 266 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: that might have been target at. You know, yeah, that 267 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 1: might have been you know. 268 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 2: That was that's your inner voice was saying the opposite 269 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 2: of give them a chuckle, a chuckle. 270 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: That's wonderful. Well, golf's fun, but when you have a 271 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 1: full day planned aheadie, it's it's a lot. But yeah, 272 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 1: you know, by the time you get through all the 273 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:50,320 Speaker 1: beer darts and beard darts is great. I don't if 274 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 1: anybody played beer darts fun game. Never just chuck a 275 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 1: dart in the middle of the field of a pile 276 00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 1: of cans, because you will not get that dart back 277 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 1: ever again. Who knows where that dart has ended up. 278 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 1: It is gone. It was literally two feet in front 279 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: of us one second and then it's just gone. 280 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. So yeah, one of our guys. You know, because 281 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 2: as you're playing beer darts. You're throwing your empties in 282 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 2: the middle, and one of the guys decided, just for 283 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 2: whatever dumb reason, to throw a dart at one of 284 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 2: the empty cans. 285 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 1: Now he's a jerk. You think I'm a jerk with 286 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 1: the middle finger? 287 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that completely absolved you, thank you, But yes, 288 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,239 Speaker 2: it was. I imagine that would have been very humorous 289 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 2: for an outsider to come by at that point, because 290 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 2: there was just there are probably seven forty year old 291 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 2: dudes on their hands and knees crawling over this patch 292 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 2: of grass looking for a dart. Like the flight flew 293 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 2: off of it, so it was just the dart. The 294 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 2: ground was soft because it had rained, and we. 295 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: This is a super old reference, but like, honey, I 296 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: struck the kids when like the parents are hands and knees, 297 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 1: you know, the Yeah, trying to look for the kids 298 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 1: in the grass Like that was us looking for this 299 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 1: dart everywhere. 300 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 2: That's we should have asked, Joe, if you had a 301 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 2: magnifying should that probably would have helped. 302 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that was something. But we never did find 303 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: that dart. In fact, luckily one of our league mates 304 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: had not shown up yet was able to bring us 305 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 1: some darts. But holy cow, that was quite the search 306 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 1: looking for that dart. But yeah, and then our grand 307 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 1: idea was to just play with one dart and it's 308 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 1: like this this game. It just takes all the energy 309 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 1: out of the game when you're playing with one dart. Yeah, 310 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 1: now fun time. And then you actually draft, which is 311 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: always fun. I don't know a lot of a lot 312 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: of leagues, they they switch up how the draft order is. 313 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 1: Sometimes just randomized. Sometimes you have to earn it. Our 314 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 1: league is like you know how a lot of them do, 315 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 1: where it starts with the loser from last year and 316 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: all the way to the winner at the at the 317 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: bottom there to kind of start your draft. But we 318 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: we reset after round four, which is always a great 319 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: excuse then to have what our league enjoys, which is 320 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: a very long break. And when we take that break, 321 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:11,440 Speaker 1: then we reshuffle the draft order again for rounds five 322 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 1: through fifteen. This year we has the new w W 323 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 1: two K game and it was like a randomized custom 324 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 1: players with all the league people and then a battle Royal. 325 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: It was so that was fun to see, you know, 326 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 1: oh here comes Eric, you know out and you got 327 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: to fight Stone called Steve Austin now. 328 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 2: And you know whoever got thrown out, whoever's named character 329 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 2: got thrown out first. That became last pack, that became 330 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 2: last year, and so it was kind of dramatic to see. Yeah, 331 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 2: when then the wrestlers announced and your guy runs out. 332 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 1: And the only thing I would have changed to that, 333 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 1: it's it's difficult because a lot of a lot of people, 334 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: most people were out of the match already before some 335 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 1: people even made it in the match. Like, I'd love 336 00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:00,080 Speaker 1: to see us all in a match start at the 337 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 1: same time and they go, but I know that's not possible, 338 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:04,639 Speaker 1: but like, that's what I would like. 339 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 2: To see, at least with only one coming in. It 340 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,160 Speaker 2: allowed you to kind of focus in. Yeah. 341 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 1: True. 342 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 2: That and the fact that, for whatever reason, the random 343 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,639 Speaker 2: character generator I mean made me a like a purple 344 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 2: turtle turtle LF Like, I'm not sure how that works. 345 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 1: But but we've done some different things. We've had Coach 346 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 1: Gruden last year selected our draft order. That's fun to 347 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 1: watch what he had to say about us. 348 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,159 Speaker 2: You mentioned beer dart, so we've been doing that for 349 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 2: a couple of years. That's kind of become our official sport. 350 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 2: But we did a couple of years ago where our 351 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 2: hosts filled up balloons and then each balloon had like 352 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 2: a slip of paper in there. And so you take 353 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,880 Speaker 2: turns throwing each member of the league, and you'd throw 354 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 2: a dart to hit a balloon and then it either 355 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 2: had a pick here's what number you're going to be, 356 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 2: or it had a shot, yeah, and which always. 357 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 1: Gets the get going. Yeah, that's a fun way to 358 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: do it too. We've done. 359 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 2: The downside to that was but he was awful, Like 360 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:02,920 Speaker 2: there were a couple of people that were just awful 361 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 2: at hitting him. And then I think your brother Kyle 362 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:09,640 Speaker 2: actually hit like four shots in a row, like he's 363 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 2: actually hitting the balloons and each one is just like, Nope, 364 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:13,440 Speaker 2: you need to do a shot. 365 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:15,720 Speaker 1: Take a shot. Yeah, I just give me six. 366 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:21,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I'll take at this point, just please. It's 367 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 2: it's a long day, but it's fun. 368 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 1: You take that break and then we kind of reshuffle 369 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:29,879 Speaker 1: the draft order. It gives a little new excitement to 370 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,360 Speaker 1: the live draft itself. But man, I'll tell you what. 371 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 1: So we start early, we're getting the beds going, and 372 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 1: then we're golfing, and then you got lunch, and then 373 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,439 Speaker 1: you got the beer games, and then you know then 374 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: you got these big reshuffling of the rounds that you 375 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:45,360 Speaker 1: may have to take all these shots and then you're 376 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 1: drinking beers and then we have to actually draft to 377 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:53,879 Speaker 1: keep you fools organized. Is quite the task. 378 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:55,959 Speaker 2: Why are you looking at me? You? 379 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:59,479 Speaker 1: I'm looking at you right now. It is quite the task. 380 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 1: I just want credit to me, honestly for this year 381 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:07,639 Speaker 1: keeping it together and getting through the entire fifteen rounds composed, 382 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,120 Speaker 1: because I know in years past I haven't been. That's 383 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 1: on me. Hand up, that's on me. But holy cow, 384 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 1: that's quite the deal. 385 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 2: I don't know. 386 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: I think one of these years you and I are 387 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 1: going to switch roles and you do what I do 388 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 1: and I'll do what you do, and then we'll we'll 389 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: just we'll have a draft, should we do like a 390 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 1: Bizarro draft? 391 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,120 Speaker 2: I don't know if this is such a good trade 392 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 2: for me, because what I what I like is just 393 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:37,639 Speaker 2: when you start getting stressed out.

You watch 452 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 1: a lot of NFC football, I do, uh, which means 453 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 1: you love Fox a lot of NFC on Fox.

I didn't tell you we were gonna do 461 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,360 Speaker 1: this ahead time. In fact, I just thought of it. 462 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: So we're going to let's quickly, very quickly rank our NFL, 463 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: not broadcast teams, but networks that we like to watch 464 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 1: NFL games on. Okay, who would you say is like 465 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 1: the worst? And there's streamers in this.

Not have 494 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 1: like give us something? It's a it's a prime game 495 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,359 Speaker 1: on Arrowhead Stadium, it's a neutral site game. You know, 496 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 1: Nebrass is a big brand. I don't know. 497 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 2: There was two challenges that happened towards the end of 498 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 2: the first half. Reyola force a strip sack fumble. Uh 499 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 2: and then they had a the other team got the 500 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,919 Speaker 2: ball after a kickoff and the guy caught it and 501 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 2: fumbled it. And the announced team was one hundred percent 502 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 2: wrong on both the calls. And it was just kind 503 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:39,919 Speaker 2: of one of these like are you what are you 504 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 2: guys watching the same game? 505 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I don't know. 506 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,120 Speaker 2: If he makes a football move, he made four steps, 507 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 2: like that's that counts? Like that he has possession of 508 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:50,159 Speaker 2: the ball. 509 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:54,359 Speaker 1: Four steps is borderline running? All right? So how about 510 00:26:54,560 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 1: let's ESPN some Monday Night football, CBS, Fox, and uh. 511 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 2: NBC, NBC. So, now does the ESPN include like so 512 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 2: you got you know, Joe Buck yep, and Akman, But 513 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 2: does it include the Manning brothers, the Manning past? 514 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,640 Speaker 1: You could include that they have the Manning cast. Yeah, 515 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 1: because I I'll watch I'll watch Monday Football, I'll watch 516 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 1: the Manning cast. I don't watch the other one. 517 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:27,800 Speaker 2: So I think i'd probably put it uh Fox, NBC, 518 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 2: ESPN and CBS is my my low my lowest broadcast one, 519 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 2: even though I think that Romo individually is probably my 520 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 2: favorite announcer. 521 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 1: He's fun, So mine would be number one. NBC. I 522 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 1: think they do better in anybody presenting a. 523 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:48,679 Speaker 2: Football game, well but Collinsworth every single time, Nobody in 524 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 2: the NFL does it better than him. 525 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 1: Yep, I think, uh I like that, Like I don't know, 526 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 1: there's just something I like that. Uh So then sorry, 527 00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 1: so NBC in the I'll probably give it Fox, and 528 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,439 Speaker 1: then i'd probably give it I'd probably give it CBS, 529 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 1: and then i'd give it ESPN and then the streamers group. 530 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 2: I like the ESPN when they do the weird graphics, like, 531 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 2: I like that. They just have fun with it and 532 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 2: it's just the dumbest. 533 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:20,640 Speaker 1: We didn't oh in the cartoons. Yeah they like Yeah 534 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:21,880 Speaker 1: a fox Stard do that too. 535 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. 536 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,920 Speaker 1: Uh, we didn't even add Nickelodeon. Uh or if you 537 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 1: count that into CBS's crew. But the Nickelodeon's kind of fun. 538 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 1: I don't I don't know that I could watch a 539 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 1: whole game that way, but it's fun to see highlights. 540 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 2: CBS always strikes me as kind of like a throwback, 541 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 2: like their whole entire like how they do the scoreboards 542 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 2: and all that kind of stuff just feels very throwback. 543 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: So CBS, it's funny you say that because they are 544 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 1: so like, like their history with the NFL is one 545 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 1: of the earliest, you know, as far as like broadcast 546 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: networks showing games. They lost their coverage when Fox outbit 547 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 1: them and then Fox you know, became what Foxes. That's 548 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 1: how they did with getting NFL, and CBS found their 549 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 1: way back in, but they lost the NFL for a while. 550 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:06,680 Speaker 1: But yeah, they're like they do have that old that 551 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 1: old field, just like if ABC, if it if instead 552 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,479 Speaker 1: of ESPN on ABC. If it was the old school 553 00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: ABC Sports, it would feel like, yeah, nineteen nineties all 554 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 1: over again. 555 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 2: You know that'd be That's an interesting question though too. 556 00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 2: When you think about it, it's like, all right, well, 557 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,720 Speaker 2: we both putting Fox up there, because hey, in the nineties, 558 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 2: that's when we probably were first getting it became. That's 559 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 2: where we have the nostalgia. It'd be interesting to talk 560 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 2: to like, you know, our dads and be like, hey, 561 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 2: which of these style ones you like better? Could be CBS, 562 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 2: Yeah it could be. 563 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, Wow, that's interesting. This is actually an interesting topic. 564 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: We just off the Dome. This is riffing at its finest. 565 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:51,600 Speaker 1: Are at the NFC. We're gonna start with the NFC South, 566 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:55,560 Speaker 1: everybody's favorite division. You have some bad blood within this division. Personally, 567 00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: I hope you don't hold that against the Saints when 568 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 1: you're talking about them, so I know you don't like 569 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: them at all. 570 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 2: I don't hold it against him. I do hold how 571 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 2: bad of a team they are. 572 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 1: You're going to hold that against them? Okay, that's fair. Okay, 573 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 1: So NFC South. 574 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 2: I think you've got to say that the Saints are 575 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 2: probably the worst team in football right now. 576 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 1: The worst team in football and you're counting the Browns 577 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 1: in this. Yes, you're counting the Jets in this. Holy cow, 578 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 1: you're kind of the Raiders in this. 579 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. 580 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 1: So you would you say the Saints are front runners 581 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 1: to be the number one pick? 582 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:37,280 Speaker 2: Yes? Wow, yeah, they I mean just and the funny 583 00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 2: the sad part is like part of it is due 584 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 2: to the quarterback uncertainty that they've got your car got hurt, 585 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 2: He's not you know, wouldn't be able to play this year. 586 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 2: But honestly, there are team's bad enough that even with 587 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 2: Carr in the building, I don't think that they probably 588 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 2: move out of the bottom three. Like you're gonna You're 589 00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 2: gonna spend a lot of bottom five podcasts sat about 590 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 2: the Saints. 591 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 1: You know, I love talking about the bottom five, and 592 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 1: I love talking about the Saints. This is actually fun. 593 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:08,920 Speaker 2: They have, I mean, probably the worst cap situation and 594 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 2: they still got like two more years before they dig 595 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 2: themselves out of the cap hell that all the spending 596 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 2: Drew Brees years put them in. They had a good 597 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 2: run there about eight years where they just kept kicking 598 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 2: the bill down or down the road. 599 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,720 Speaker 1: Okay, So, as a Vikings fan, as somebody who's never 600 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: experienced a super Bowl championship. Okay, would you give it 601 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,480 Speaker 1: all the way to have those breeze years and then 602 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 1: be in salary cap hell to never be competitive again? 603 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean the the super Bowl made it worthwhile. Okay, 604 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 2: the super Bowl made it worthwhile. 605 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 1: I'd agree with you there, Just give me one one 606 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 1: super Bowl would make it all worth it then whatever. 607 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:50,920 Speaker 2: Yeah.

We weren't even talking about the Vikings, 655 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 1: but here we are. The Saints. Yeah, they are trash. 656 00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 2: Let's just good. Let's go ahead and move on to 657 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:16,440 Speaker 2: the Panthers. 658 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:20,440 Speaker 1: I like their offense. I'm gonna be on the record. 659 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:21,919 Speaker 1: I think they have something there. 660 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:26,799 Speaker 2: See. Do you think that Bryce Young like he was 661 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 2: the later half of last year. Yes, he's that's the 662 00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:30,360 Speaker 2: quarterback that he's going to be. 663 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 1: I think he gets it. I think there was a 664 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 1: learning curve. They did the right thing by benching him. 665 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:37,440 Speaker 1: They did the right thing by having Andy Dalton on 666 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:42,359 Speaker 1: the on the team to to mentor him. He's really good. 667 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:46,920 Speaker 2: It's it's wild, like when is there another like redemption? 668 00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:50,040 Speaker 2: Story like that of just I. 669 00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:54,480 Speaker 1: Mean, there's not like you either you either flame out 670 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:59,120 Speaker 1: quick or you just you just like Trevor Lawrence, just 671 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,280 Speaker 1: just you start one day and you never look back, 672 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 1: and you either get it or you don't. I don't 673 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 1: know that he gets it yet, but he's still there. 674 00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 1: Jared Goff either get it or you don't. 675 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,279 Speaker 2: And the other names that kind of came and it's 676 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:21,080 Speaker 2: a totally different scenario. But Brady Roethlisberger. Neither one of 677 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 2: those guys was like that great the first year, but 678 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 2: they were champions. 679 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:29,880 Speaker 1: In fact, Roethlisberger they won despite him it. 680 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, but they were champions, which gave him a long 681 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 2: enough leash that, Hey, they by the end of their careers, 682 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:39,759 Speaker 2: they were like the top quarterbacks. But I don't think 683 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:43,279 Speaker 2: you would have predicted that by seeing their film from 684 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 2: their first like two or three years. 685 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:47,280 Speaker 1: There's something to be said about not playing right away. 686 00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:50,960 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning. Would they get one win that first season? 687 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:53,799 Speaker 1: They let him go out there and play football right led. 688 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,400 Speaker 2: The league and interceptions. 689 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 1: Exactly, and now he's a Hall of Famer. But like 690 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:02,440 Speaker 1: there's Carson Palmer with the Bengals didn't play a snap 691 00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:05,439 Speaker 1: that first season. They made him sit, you know, sit 692 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 1: as QB two the whole first season, and then he 693 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:10,799 Speaker 1: was the start of the next season. He had a 694 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 1: great career. I like, I think there's something to a 695 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:18,200 Speaker 1: guy being sat down at times and being like, watch 696 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 1: the game, watch it unfold, then go out there and 697 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 1: do it. 698 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:27,319 Speaker 2: That's and it's interesting just from I don't think. I 699 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 2: don't think you can do that anymore. I don't think 700 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 2: that you can consistently do that. I think so much money. Yeah, well, 701 00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:38,759 Speaker 2: and too much of an advantage, because having a rookie quarterback, 702 00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 2: having them on that rookie deal is the most valuable 703 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:43,880 Speaker 2: thing in sports. 704 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:45,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good point, because you spend that money 705 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:47,640 Speaker 1: elsewhere in that salary cap. 706 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:51,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, so you obviously you can do it either way, but. 707 00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,440 Speaker 1: You lose a year of that window. Yeah, that's a 708 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:54,839 Speaker 1: good point. 709 00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:59,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, what changed on the Chiefs from Patrick Mahomes and 710 00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 2: those early the Super Bowl teams to where they are now, well, 711 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:07,400 Speaker 2: paying him sixty million. You don't have that to spread, 712 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 2: you know, to get those good defenders, to keep that 713 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 2: Tyreek Hill contract out there. 714 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 1: That's scary. What if he had played that first year, 715 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:20,440 Speaker 1: Just if my home started year one. That's scary to 716 00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 1: think they could have another Super Bowl. Anyway, back to the. 717 00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:29,280 Speaker 2: South, now that we've gotten the Saints and the Panthers 718 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 2: out of the way, by talking. 719 00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:33,440 Speaker 1: About other teams, Yeah. 720 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 2: So I'm probably going against the grain here. I got 721 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 2: I got the Bucks next in that one. 722 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 1: The Bucks are definitely the favorites to win the division. Yeah, 723 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,880 Speaker 1: backed by Baker Mayfield, who I'm He's my fantasy quarterback 724 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,120 Speaker 1: this year. I've got big hopes for him this year. 725 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:56,040 Speaker 1: The stacked, stacked with weapons around him, good culture, this 726 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:57,320 Speaker 1: is a good football team. 727 00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:59,960 Speaker 2: And this might be you know, because we did our 728 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:03,719 Speaker 2: AFC show. I did my AFC rankings first, and you know, 729 00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:05,840 Speaker 2: I picked the Jags as a team that I was 730 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 2: a little bit higher on, mostly due to I like Cohen. 731 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 2: I like their head coach. Well, he's been the guy 732 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:16,279 Speaker 2: that was the offensive coordinator for the Bucks. So I 733 00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:18,960 Speaker 2: guess that's probably the big question. You know, it'll be 734 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,239 Speaker 2: a big question here actually on the NFC when we 735 00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:23,279 Speaker 2: get to the Lions as well, is just hey, when 736 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:28,200 Speaker 2: you have such an efficient offense that's run by it, 737 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:31,240 Speaker 2: does it still run as well? Right when they're gone? 738 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:37,440 Speaker 1: That's their big question mark. So you think that no, 739 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:41,680 Speaker 1: the answer is no, and that the Atlanta Falcons are 740 00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:42,600 Speaker 1: going to overstep. 741 00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:47,280 Speaker 2: I think that they're in improvement mode. Yeah. 742 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,840 Speaker 1: And do you think Kirk Cousins ends up being the 743 00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 1: guy that takes them to the Promised Land? No, So 744 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 1: he's just gonna continue to collect checks. 745 00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:04,960 Speaker 2: As I mean, he's done it better than he's done paybody. Yeah. Uh. 746 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:06,080 Speaker 1: What do you like about the Falcons? 747 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:10,960 Speaker 2: And I mean I like their offensive skill players. I 748 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:17,240 Speaker 2: mean I think Bijon is arguably, I mean the best 749 00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:19,359 Speaker 2: running back out there right now. I mean he's right 750 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:19,920 Speaker 2: in his prime. 751 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:20,440 Speaker 1: Yep. 752 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,880 Speaker 2: Uh. And then I mean I like the the Drake London. 753 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:27,520 Speaker 2: I like, why am I blanking on the QB's name 754 00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:30,279 Speaker 2: right now? Pay you? Yeah? You kept saying Cousins, and 755 00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:31,840 Speaker 2: I'm like, it's not Cousins, It's not Cousins. 756 00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:34,760 Speaker 1: Well because I still have like a saft spot for Cousins, 757 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:36,320 Speaker 1: Like I feel like he's a good quarterback. 758 00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:37,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I'm like, why. 759 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:39,319 Speaker 1: Why is that guy not I mean, look at how 760 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,760 Speaker 1: much money he's making, why is he not starting quarterback? 761 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 1: But Pennis it's pretty freaking good and adds a level 762 00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 1: of play that Cousins just isn't gonna give you. 763 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 2: So the NFC South, they're also be playing the NFC West, 764 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:55,480 Speaker 2: and they're going to play in the AFC East. So 765 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:57,480 Speaker 2: I do think that both these teams, no matter how 766 00:39:57,520 --> 00:39:59,400 Speaker 2: it shakes out, for that number one. See, I think 767 00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:03,440 Speaker 2: both these teams a really good shot to make the playoffs. Okay, 768 00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:07,160 Speaker 2: but the Bucks will be the team that are playing 769 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:12,759 Speaker 2: the Lions and the Eagles, and neither of those teams 770 00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 2: are going to be on the Falcons schedule. 771 00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:16,920 Speaker 1: Well, there you go. That could be the difference. 772 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:20,799 Speaker 2: So yeah, like I think when you're kind of looking 773 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 2: at this pecking order of the NFC, I mean, the 774 00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:26,399 Speaker 2: Bucks are are good, but they're not I don't think 775 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 2: in the same weight class as right, you know, the 776 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:32,200 Speaker 2: Lions and the Eagles. 777 00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:34,640 Speaker 1: Do you ever do the exercise where it's like you 778 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 1: take every team's individual schedule and you just go down 779 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 1: the line, all right, win loss win loss and lost 780 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 1: loss win win, when you know, and you kind of 781 00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 1: get everybody's final records and just from looking individually, and 782 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 1: I'll get anything else. And then you take those and 783 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:50,839 Speaker 1: then it's like, all right, here's the divisions, here's here's 784 00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:54,160 Speaker 1: if you're like done that. Actually, I find that interesting 785 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 1: and I don't know if you can find any thing 786 00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:00,480 Speaker 1: from it. See if you were doing it like you 787 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:02,400 Speaker 1: just said, if you were doing that and talking about 788 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:04,520 Speaker 1: what you just said, I think you're right. I mean, 789 00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:06,800 Speaker 1: that's where you find Atlanta gets the advantage. 790 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:10,120 Speaker 2: And here's kind of my methodology on here, and we're 791 00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:12,440 Speaker 2: gonna get a little nerdy in here. But one of 792 00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:14,880 Speaker 2: the reasons that we've been kind of talking about what division, 793 00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:17,279 Speaker 2: what conference these guys are playing in, is a way 794 00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:18,560 Speaker 2: to kind of weigh that out. So if I was 795 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:20,439 Speaker 2: looking at the Falcons or the Bucks and they're playing 796 00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:25,320 Speaker 2: the AFC East, all right, well, there's probably one team 797 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:27,880 Speaker 2: that we know is better than those. Buffalo is going 798 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:29,840 Speaker 2: to be better. Ye, there's two teams in there that 799 00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:33,080 Speaker 2: we know are going to be worse. So it's probably 800 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 2: fair to say, you know, two and two, maybe three 801 00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:40,160 Speaker 2: and one out of there. Yeah, And that's probably a 802 00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:42,560 Speaker 2: little bit more realistic of saying like two and two 803 00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:44,920 Speaker 2: than like going through there. I'm just giving them a 804 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:48,279 Speaker 2: win or a loss based on that, because you're going 805 00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:51,120 Speaker 2: to end up with that dumb like every year, you 806 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:52,560 Speaker 2: end up with that one where it's just like, well 807 00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:55,040 Speaker 2: they lost to the Dolphins, but then they beat the 808 00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:57,759 Speaker 2: Patriots and the Jets, right, all right, well you know 809 00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:01,279 Speaker 2: the Jets we expected, but you know, yeah, okay, we 810 00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:05,400 Speaker 2: didn't expect them to go to you know. So I 811 00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:07,240 Speaker 2: think you can kind of look at those other divisions 812 00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:09,520 Speaker 2: and you can get an idea, Hey, if I'm playing 813 00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:12,840 Speaker 2: the NFC North this year, that's going to be really 814 00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:14,600 Speaker 2: really tough to say that I'm going to go three 815 00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:17,280 Speaker 2: and one, just because there are three really good teams 816 00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:20,000 Speaker 2: in there, right and one of those teams is probably 817 00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:22,080 Speaker 2: going to steal one that they shouldn't have because it 818 00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 2: just always happened. Yes, yeah, So that that's kind of 819 00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:27,319 Speaker 2: how I weigh it. I think that you get kind 820 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:28,880 Speaker 2: of locked in if you're looking at a game by 821 00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:32,920 Speaker 2: game and like a fallacy of just like you're you're 822 00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:37,080 Speaker 2: projecting out two months from now. Yep, Hey, how healthy 823 00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:38,880 Speaker 2: are this team? Like? Am I looking at it from 824 00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:40,960 Speaker 2: day one? I mean, we talked about the Bills as 825 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:42,920 Speaker 2: a team last year that was looked at more like 826 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 2: a rebuilding and they turned out to be a juggernaut. 827 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:48,279 Speaker 2: They're better, I mean, or the Vikings, a team that 828 00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:50,640 Speaker 2: was supposed to be nothing last year that ended up 829 00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:53,479 Speaker 2: being really good. Yeah, a fourteen win team. 830 00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:56,840 Speaker 1: And I find myself when I'm looking at you know, 831 00:42:57,120 --> 00:42:59,840 Speaker 1: if I just look at Okay, here's the team on paper, 832 00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 1: here's the divisions are matching up against, I could feel 833 00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:06,799 Speaker 1: like this team's fourteen to twelve team, you know, win team. 834 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,160 Speaker 1: But if I'm going week to week to week for 835 00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:12,240 Speaker 1: each team and I'm looking at it, I find myself. 836 00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:14,120 Speaker 1: I get into these modes where like, well, yeah, but 837 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:16,040 Speaker 1: they're not gonna win like three in a row, so 838 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:19,319 Speaker 1: they're gonna lose this one, and then they're stacking up 839 00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:22,320 Speaker 1: wins or losses maybe in places that wouldn't actually happen 840 00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:24,399 Speaker 1: on the field, but in my head, yeah, but they're 841 00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:27,680 Speaker 1: not gonna win six straight, you know, like look at 842 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:30,839 Speaker 1: this stretch. Like I don't know, I just create these 843 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:33,719 Speaker 1: storylines within At that point. 844 00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:38,960 Speaker 2: The NFL network had they had a analyst last year 845 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,400 Speaker 2: that did the Viking schedule like that, and he marked 846 00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:44,360 Speaker 2: wins and losses and it was it went viral in 847 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,960 Speaker 2: like the Vikings chat groups because he was he had 848 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,920 Speaker 2: him going like four and thirteen as opposed to you know, 849 00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:53,400 Speaker 2: and it's just like well, you just you look awful 850 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:53,759 Speaker 2: on this. 851 00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 1: But yeah, it's well last year was the year like 852 00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:59,840 Speaker 1: Vegas even had their win loss total super low. Yeah, 853 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,520 Speaker 1: and it's like they were coming off of twelve wins, 854 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:04,759 Speaker 1: fourteen wins something like that. Like there's no way they 855 00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:07,200 Speaker 1: have that kind of drop, and there you go, they did. Not. 856 00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:11,240 Speaker 1: All Right, the NFC South, you got the Falcons taking 857 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:15,920 Speaker 1: the number one spot. NFC you going to do the West? Sure, okay, 858 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:17,160 Speaker 1: NFC West. 859 00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:19,319 Speaker 2: This is a very tough one. 860 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:22,800 Speaker 1: This division is always tough, Yeah, because very even teams. 861 00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:24,919 Speaker 2: I feel like the Rams are probably the best team 862 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:27,120 Speaker 2: in there, but I think you can make an argument 863 00:44:27,160 --> 00:44:32,080 Speaker 2: for any of the other teams winning this division. I've 864 00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:34,520 Speaker 2: got the Cardinals at that number four spot. But it's 865 00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:36,600 Speaker 2: like I feel like they're going to be a decent 866 00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:40,359 Speaker 2: team again, Like they've got talent, Like they're a very 867 00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 2: balanced team. They've got talent on the defense, they've got 868 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:46,279 Speaker 2: talent on the offense, Like they've got exciting players on 869 00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:46,960 Speaker 2: both sides. 870 00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:49,480 Speaker 1: So fourth place in this division, what do you think 871 00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:52,319 Speaker 1: they're What do you think their win total could be? 872 00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:54,360 Speaker 1: Do you think it could be over seven and a half. 873 00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:56,800 Speaker 1: Do you think they fall into like six just because 874 00:44:56,800 --> 00:44:57,799 Speaker 1: of substance. 875 00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:01,279 Speaker 2: This is the division that I have have marked down 876 00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:04,839 Speaker 2: as being like this year's NFC North. I feel like 877 00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:07,160 Speaker 2: this is a division that could send three teams to 878 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:13,600 Speaker 2: the playoffs, right. Yeah. The biggest reason is so NFC West, 879 00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:17,920 Speaker 2: they're playing the NFC South very winnable games and the 880 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:21,840 Speaker 2: AFC South extremely winnable games on both sides. And that 881 00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:24,720 Speaker 2: was I mean, the Vikings, the Lions, and the Packers 882 00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:27,279 Speaker 2: last year all feasted off the AFC South. 883 00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:29,759 Speaker 1: Well, gamblers out there. This is the division to look 884 00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:32,560 Speaker 1: at the win loss and take the over. There's an 885 00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:34,719 Speaker 1: opportunity here. I love that. 886 00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:38,560 Speaker 2: But yeah, I think I mean, Cardinals aren't a tough 887 00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:41,480 Speaker 2: spot though, because it's like they've had Kyler Murray, they've 888 00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:43,239 Speaker 2: had success there. I mean obviously they had of Marvin 889 00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:46,120 Speaker 2: Harrison junior last year. Like they've got some pieces around them. 890 00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:51,239 Speaker 2: But like you kind of it's bad to have an 891 00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:54,799 Speaker 2: average quarterback, Like that's a bad spot to be in. 892 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:59,520 Speaker 2: It's a bad spot to be extending. You know, Kylage 893 00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:01,800 Speaker 2: that that's where he I don't think he's proved that 894 00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:03,919 Speaker 2: he's elite. I don't think that he's proven that he's 895 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:05,239 Speaker 2: a top ten quarterback. 896 00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:08,880 Speaker 1: He's certainly not elite. He certainly has the talent to 897 00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:10,560 Speaker 1: be elite at times. 898 00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:14,560 Speaker 2: Like if you paired him in a bit, I mean, 899 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:16,319 Speaker 2: if you paired him with a really good defense, could 900 00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:18,680 Speaker 2: he be like a Russell Wilson, you know, like Keat 901 00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:21,239 Speaker 2: was classic, Because I mean that would probably be the 902 00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:26,120 Speaker 2: comp for him. I mean short like big playability. 903 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,120 Speaker 1: Right, but if you put him on that Seattle team, 904 00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:30,640 Speaker 1: the Russ oh Man, that'd be a heck of a 905 00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:33,160 Speaker 1: heck of a squad. Yeah right, he kind of has 906 00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:37,120 Speaker 1: that same playable as Russ. He's I like Kyler Murray. 907 00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:39,120 Speaker 1: I picked him this year in fantasy to back up 908 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:40,879 Speaker 1: Baker because I'm like, I. 909 00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:43,840 Speaker 2: Think two of your big put a put a flag 910 00:46:43,880 --> 00:46:46,600 Speaker 2: in it, the two quarterbacks, so we know that you 911 00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:48,799 Speaker 2: got Baker Mayfield Kyler Murray. 912 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:51,239 Speaker 1: And like they weren't guys I invested a lot of 913 00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:54,120 Speaker 1: like high draft picks on him. I just they are 914 00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:56,440 Speaker 1: guys in key spots that I'm like, I think I 915 00:46:56,520 --> 00:46:57,960 Speaker 1: need to rely on them. I think I will be 916 00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:03,200 Speaker 1: able to. I see Kyler having a really good season. 917 00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:07,280 Speaker 2: And I mean those two, for as far as fantasy 918 00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:09,360 Speaker 2: are really complimentary to each because you'll be able to 919 00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:10,279 Speaker 2: play the matchups. 920 00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 1: Sure, yeah, exactly exactly. 921 00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:15,080 Speaker 2: Like you're not having to take the bad weeks. You're 922 00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:17,839 Speaker 2: not having to take you know when they play. Hey, 923 00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:21,120 Speaker 2: you might sit Kyler when he's playing this at Seattle, right, 924 00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:22,080 Speaker 2: and I'll. 925 00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:29,200 Speaker 1: Be able to do that those Bakers playing at New Orleans, yeah, 926 00:47:29,920 --> 00:47:33,520 Speaker 1: or against New Orleans. All right, So the Bucks, which 927 00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:36,799 Speaker 1: I'm gonna guess, I don't know who you pick next. 928 00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:39,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna guess that you picked. 929 00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 2: I thought this was one that I went back and forth, 930 00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:51,319 Speaker 2: so I picked the Seahawks as number three. They got 931 00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:56,839 Speaker 2: an amazing defense. I mean, the question is is like 932 00:47:57,560 --> 00:48:01,319 Speaker 2: if you Gino Smith was their quarterback. You see, is 933 00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:04,000 Speaker 2: Darnold a net gain or net loss on that? 934 00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:06,239 Speaker 1: I don't know's he's. 935 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:08,319 Speaker 2: If. 936 00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:10,520 Speaker 1: Here's the thing, it's a loss if he's the same 937 00:48:11,560 --> 00:48:14,839 Speaker 1: because they made the switch to get better. So even 938 00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:17,879 Speaker 1: if he's the same as Gino there behind the ball, 939 00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:20,839 Speaker 1: so they need him to be better. Yep, I don't 940 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,560 Speaker 1: know that he's better, so that he would probably take 941 00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:24,080 Speaker 1: the under. 942 00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:26,000 Speaker 2: And then you're thinking about it too. The other big 943 00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:29,680 Speaker 2: trade that Seattle made so they got rid of Metcalf. Yeah, 944 00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:37,160 Speaker 2: I mean, they've got Jackson Smith in there, but Cooper Cup. 945 00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:40,560 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup beyond the time, beyond his prime. There's a 946 00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:43,879 Speaker 1: reason he's not in Los Angeles anymore. I mean, they 947 00:48:44,080 --> 00:48:49,600 Speaker 1: loved him there. Just think of all how much production 948 00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:53,360 Speaker 1: he was. He was the guy. He was the reason 949 00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:58,120 Speaker 1: Matt Stafford could do Matt Stafford things. He was the reason. 950 00:48:58,160 --> 00:49:01,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give nobody else credit. I'm giving it all 951 00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:03,360 Speaker 1: to Cooper Cup because he was just always open. 952 00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:06,480 Speaker 2: When when O'Connell came to coach the Vikings, that was 953 00:49:06,520 --> 00:49:08,640 Speaker 2: like the first thing everybody's talking about, is he's going 954 00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:10,800 Speaker 2: to turn Justin Jefferson into Cooper Cup. 955 00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:12,400 Speaker 1: And why not? You know that, why not? 956 00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:14,600 Speaker 2: That was a cop that you could make at that time. 957 00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:16,400 Speaker 2: But that was also five years ago. 958 00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:20,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. You think Cooper Cup takes a 959 00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:22,160 Speaker 1: big step back and it really impacted. 960 00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:25,040 Speaker 2: I mean, I Cooper Cup was just an accessory to 961 00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:28,840 Speaker 2: the Rams last year and he was not one hundred 962 00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:31,360 Speaker 2: and twenty catches Cooper Cup. He was hurt. He was 963 00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:34,000 Speaker 2: hurt too. He was hurt. But even when he came back, 964 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:36,200 Speaker 2: like he's not the same guy. Yeah, he was not 965 00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:38,160 Speaker 2: able to headline the show anymore. 966 00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:43,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I would agree there Seattle. I think there's 967 00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:46,560 Speaker 1: question marks with San Francisco as well. 968 00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:49,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, and not so much like. 969 00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:52,640 Speaker 1: Because the players on the field are still really, really. 970 00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:56,120 Speaker 2: Good, so San Francisco. So I flipped back and forth 971 00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:58,480 Speaker 2: on this one. The one thing that probably decided me 972 00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:03,160 Speaker 2: on the Niners is that, based on their strength of 973 00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:06,680 Speaker 2: schedule is the easiest in all the NFL. 974 00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:08,560 Speaker 1: That helps, all right, that helps a lot. 975 00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:12,000 Speaker 2: So, yeah, they've got an easier schedule. They finished, you know, 976 00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:16,480 Speaker 2: they finished. Did they finish last in the division last year? 977 00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:17,280 Speaker 1: The Niners? 978 00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:20,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, yeah, So they've got that easy schedule where 979 00:50:21,239 --> 00:50:22,839 Speaker 2: they get to a like even you know, we talked 980 00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:25,600 Speaker 2: about the Thunderdome of the NFC North of having to 981 00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:27,440 Speaker 2: play those, they don't have to play the Lions, the 982 00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:29,680 Speaker 2: Packers of the Vikings, like that's going to be the 983 00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:32,000 Speaker 2: other three teams in that division that are playing those, 984 00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:32,600 Speaker 2: you know. 985 00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:35,040 Speaker 1: But they have to stay healthy and they haven't been 986 00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:39,120 Speaker 1: able to do that. They have to overcome injuries to 987 00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:42,880 Speaker 1: their best guys. Rock Party has done an incredible job 988 00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:46,960 Speaker 1: of playing quarterback with a cast that's constantly moving in 989 00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:48,960 Speaker 1: and out. I mean credit to him. Maybe that's why 990 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:51,000 Speaker 1: they love him so much, because he could just make 991 00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:53,360 Speaker 1: things happen in a way that I've only seen Philip 992 00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:54,200 Speaker 1: Rivers be able to do. 993 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:58,399 Speaker 2: You Rockabola, you can rock them behind them. 994 00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:01,440 Speaker 1: We got to ask them. But yeah, if they stay healthy, 995 00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:03,520 Speaker 1: I mean, sure, the Niners could probably win this division. 996 00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:06,400 Speaker 1: But I got no faith in that. I got no 997 00:51:06,600 --> 00:51:09,680 Speaker 1: faith in their training staff keeping those guys on the field. 998 00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:13,840 Speaker 1: It's the schedules an interesting thing because I didn't know that. 999 00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:15,280 Speaker 1: I didn't realize they had the easiest. 1000 00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:18,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's wild too to think about, just like Christian McCaffrey, 1001 00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:21,920 Speaker 2: I mean that experiment. Obviously, the Niners traded for him 1002 00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:24,560 Speaker 2: like two years ago, like he had a full career. 1003 00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:29,200 Speaker 2: It felt like in Carolina, like he's twenty nine and 1004 00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:33,960 Speaker 2: you know, normally you don't see speed guys like that lasting. 1005 00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:34,919 Speaker 1: You get to thirty, it's over. 1006 00:51:35,120 --> 00:51:39,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, So you know, I think that's probably the biggest 1007 00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:41,400 Speaker 2: piece of me, especially with Debo gone. Yuke's not going 1008 00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:42,879 Speaker 2: to be ready to go at the beginning of the year, 1009 00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:46,840 Speaker 2: like they're banking on Kittle, and yeah, it's gonna be 1010 00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:49,680 Speaker 2: a big Christian McCaffrey, like carrying that offense. 1011 00:51:49,800 --> 00:51:52,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I don't want to give you my entire lineup, 1012 00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:56,560 Speaker 1: but Kittle is on my team as well for all 1013 00:51:56,600 --> 00:51:59,440 Speaker 1: the reasons you just named. I think Kittle gets the volume. 1014 00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:01,840 Speaker 2: Well, he's good. He's good for like two games a 1015 00:52:01,880 --> 00:52:04,520 Speaker 2: season where he gets like three touchdowns. 1016 00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:07,319 Speaker 1: But I, well, I'll take those. But I also think 1017 00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:09,439 Speaker 1: he's going to be a volume guy all season because 1018 00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:12,960 Speaker 1: I think he's just gonna have to be. So I'm 1019 00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:15,759 Speaker 1: I put a lot of I did this year with 1020 00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:17,640 Speaker 1: Kittle what I was hoping last year was going to 1021 00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:20,400 Speaker 1: be with Kelsey as far as my strategy. 1022 00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:23,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. Meanwhile, in the Beer Hazy rounds, I think I 1023 00:52:23,520 --> 00:52:25,600 Speaker 2: just picked the tight end that was at the top 1024 00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:27,920 Speaker 2: of my sheet. It was available, Yeah, and then I 1025 00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:30,759 Speaker 2: think I was pretty mad about it later on. Did 1026 00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:35,880 Speaker 2: you fall asleep with the draft or that's that's unsubstantiated. 1027 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:39,279 Speaker 1: All right, we'll see what's happened there. All right, Well, 1028 00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:40,360 Speaker 1: that only leaves the Rams. 1029 00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:44,640 Speaker 2: That leaves the Rams winning the division. And this is 1030 00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:49,360 Speaker 2: also assuming injury luck because you're hoping that Stafford plays 1031 00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:50,040 Speaker 2: the whole season. 1032 00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:55,040 Speaker 1: Was he debating retiring I feel like he was. 1033 00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:59,799 Speaker 2: So he wasn't debating retiring, but he was looking for 1034 00:52:59,840 --> 00:53:03,400 Speaker 2: a last payday, okay, because remember he was threatening to 1035 00:53:03,440 --> 00:53:06,919 Speaker 2: hold out, That's what it was, because he wanted additional time. 1036 00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:09,680 Speaker 2: But at the end of that contractor so they gave 1037 00:53:09,760 --> 00:53:12,560 Speaker 2: him permission to go seek a trade and then yeah, 1038 00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:15,360 Speaker 2: then they came to terms pretty quickly after that was. 1039 00:53:15,360 --> 00:53:18,399 Speaker 1: Going to take Matt Stafford. At this point, he's done 1040 00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:22,120 Speaker 1: it all. It's over. You know, it's either you give 1041 00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:24,680 Speaker 1: it one last run with the Rams because you're comfortable, 1042 00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:26,799 Speaker 1: which that's the best spot for him. 1043 00:53:27,239 --> 00:53:27,800 Speaker 2: It is. 1044 00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:29,359 Speaker 1: It is just the best spot for him. 1045 00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:33,440 Speaker 2: It's it's so tough because you know, you you kind 1046 00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:37,120 Speaker 2: of mentioned earlier the AFC's your bread and butter. You 1047 00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:38,840 Speaker 2: you you're used to those teams where I'm used to 1048 00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:43,960 Speaker 2: the NFC as somebody that Vikings playing the Lions with Stafford, 1049 00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:49,520 Speaker 2: like I always dissed and poop pooed on Stafford, Like 1050 00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:53,360 Speaker 2: I felt like Stafford Cousins was like that they're on 1051 00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:57,200 Speaker 2: that same tier. Yeah, So it irks me to no 1052 00:53:57,440 --> 00:53:59,520 Speaker 2: end that he went to this Rams situation, which is 1053 00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:03,120 Speaker 2: perfect for him, coach, perfect for him, like the Cooper cups, 1054 00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:07,279 Speaker 2: Puka Nikua's like perfect for him, and then he won 1055 00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:10,439 Speaker 2: that championship, and now it's just like, God, he still 1056 00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:12,799 Speaker 2: annoys me. He's annoying, but I can't I can't make 1057 00:54:12,840 --> 00:54:14,560 Speaker 2: an argument. I can't tell you what's the straight face 1058 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:18,040 Speaker 2: that he's in the same category as a Kirk Cousins anymore. 1059 00:54:18,239 --> 00:54:21,960 Speaker 1: I enjoyed watching him on Thanksgiving Day with the Lions. 1060 00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:24,799 Speaker 1: I thought he was a big enough star quarterback to 1061 00:54:24,880 --> 00:54:27,080 Speaker 1: be like, all right, the Lions could win today, even 1062 00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:27,960 Speaker 1: on those bad teams. 1063 00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:30,000 Speaker 2: Well, you know, especially those bad teams when it was 1064 00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:32,320 Speaker 2: just him and Calvin Johnson's and it was just like. 1065 00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:33,040 Speaker 1: Just airing it out. 1066 00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:34,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, Colvin's gonna go for one hundred and eighty and 1067 00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:36,080 Speaker 2: two touchdowns. 1068 00:54:36,360 --> 00:54:38,680 Speaker 1: Because they're going to put on a show for the 1069 00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:41,480 Speaker 1: biggest audience they're going to have all season on Thanksgiving Day. 1070 00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:45,160 Speaker 1: I really enjoyed that. Now he's with the Rams, I 1071 00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:47,799 Speaker 1: don't enjoy watching him because it's a perfect fit for him, 1072 00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:51,279 Speaker 1: and he's just annoying his head and. 1073 00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:53,160 Speaker 2: You're just probably you're probably reminded of the Rams so 1074 00:54:53,239 --> 00:54:55,759 Speaker 2: much when you see the Charger Stadium and just thinking 1075 00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:57,759 Speaker 2: about the fact that you know, you guys are just 1076 00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:02,520 Speaker 2: kind of roommates. Yeah, it's their roommates. But the Rams 1077 00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:06,080 Speaker 2: got the master bedroom with the attached bathroom. 1078 00:55:06,280 --> 00:55:09,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, we're like cohabitating right now, and it's annoying. So 1079 00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:12,360 Speaker 1: like Forbes, he always does like the evaluations at the 1080 00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:16,200 Speaker 1: beginning NFL season like most, and it's like the Chargers 1081 00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:21,799 Speaker 1: completely ditched their fan base and went to LA to 1082 00:55:21,920 --> 00:55:25,400 Speaker 1: continue to be one of the bottom valued teams in 1083 00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:28,320 Speaker 1: the NFL. Like, what are you doing? You're in La. 1084 00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:32,400 Speaker 1: They just they completely botched that whole thing. What a mess? 1085 00:55:33,400 --> 00:55:36,000 Speaker 1: What a mess. So now the only thing they can 1086 00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:37,719 Speaker 1: do is win a Super Bowl to change that. I 1087 00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:39,920 Speaker 1: mean that's just there they did and everything else they 1088 00:55:39,960 --> 00:55:41,920 Speaker 1: could do. Now, you go win a Super Bowl, it 1089 00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,960 Speaker 1: changes everything. But you don't, and you just continue to 1090 00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:46,800 Speaker 1: be the Chargers. So it just sucks. 1091 00:55:47,440 --> 00:55:49,480 Speaker 2: I was enjoyed, Uh did you bring that up? I 1092 00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:53,640 Speaker 2: always enjoyed the Bill Simmons when he'd write about when 1093 00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:55,800 Speaker 2: he moved to LA from the Northeast, and he was 1094 00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:59,000 Speaker 2: just like, they'll never support a football team because there's 1095 00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:01,560 Speaker 2: just you can still go to the beach in December, 1096 00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:04,120 Speaker 2: Like they don't need to go to live and die 1097 00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:08,040 Speaker 2: off of a football team, Like but San Diego would 1098 00:56:08,080 --> 00:56:11,600 Speaker 2: live and die for that team. They love that team LA. 1099 00:56:11,880 --> 00:56:14,320 Speaker 2: I mean, if anybody's making headway there, it's the Rams, 1100 00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:16,920 Speaker 2: who already had the history in the La Metro. 1101 00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:21,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, the you had that, they have, the Lakers, the 1102 00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:23,160 Speaker 1: history with the Lakers. I mean, they're just there's just 1103 00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:26,840 Speaker 1: teams that they're You just look if you really looked 1104 00:56:26,840 --> 00:56:30,200 Speaker 1: at all of the big brands, the big teams that 1105 00:56:30,680 --> 00:56:34,959 Speaker 1: LA is supposedly supposed to root for. There's a lot 1106 00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:38,080 Speaker 1: already before you added the Rams and the Chargers, because 1107 00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:43,400 Speaker 1: you've got UCLA, USC, the Clippers, the Lakers, the Dodgers, 1108 00:56:43,440 --> 00:56:47,319 Speaker 1: like the Angels, the Kings. You just go on and on, 1109 00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:49,160 Speaker 1: and I haven't even got into the women's teams. Like, 1110 00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:52,799 Speaker 1: there's just so many teams. And then you added the 1111 00:56:52,880 --> 00:56:55,840 Speaker 1: Rams and the Chargers and the lot and most of 1112 00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:59,560 Speaker 1: them still root for the Raiders. So then what do 1113 00:56:59,600 --> 00:57:04,759 Speaker 1: you do with that? What a mess? Anyways, I digress. 1114 00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:06,480 Speaker 1: You would talk about the North and you want to 1115 00:57:06,480 --> 00:57:07,200 Speaker 1: save them for last. 1116 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:09,040 Speaker 2: I think we should probably save them for last. I 1117 00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:10,640 Speaker 2: have a feeling that we might go along on. 1118 00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:13,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, let's talk about the East. 1119 00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:17,880 Speaker 2: So East, no surprise. Number four I've got the Giants. 1120 00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:21,439 Speaker 1: Probably no different than last year, right there, just kind 1121 00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:22,720 Speaker 1: of be the Giants. 1122 00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:24,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1123 00:57:25,160 --> 00:57:29,440 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, Yeah, I mean he's I still think he's fun. 1124 00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:31,640 Speaker 1: Do you still find him fun to watch? 1125 00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:33,640 Speaker 2: No? But I never really enjoyed him. 1126 00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:36,120 Speaker 1: Okay, because I really enjoyed him in Seattle. 1127 00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:40,840 Speaker 2: I he from the time that he played with Wisconsin 1128 00:57:41,320 --> 00:57:46,920 Speaker 2: and one of the most embarrassing Husker losses came his hands. 1129 00:57:47,600 --> 00:57:50,400 Speaker 2: And then it seemed like the Vikings would always draw 1130 00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:55,040 Speaker 2: that and those defenses this would be like the Jared Allen, 1131 00:57:55,160 --> 00:58:01,560 Speaker 2: Kevin Williams, you know defenses, and they would can him 1132 00:58:01,760 --> 00:58:04,160 Speaker 2: except for like three plays. There'd be like three plays 1133 00:58:04,160 --> 00:58:07,040 Speaker 2: where he'd just be like running figure eights in the 1134 00:58:07,080 --> 00:58:09,840 Speaker 2: backfield and all of a sudden he would throw the 1135 00:58:09,880 --> 00:58:13,360 Speaker 2: perfect spiral to somebody thirty yards down the field and 1136 00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:16,560 Speaker 2: it's just like, this play doesn't work unless he's able 1137 00:58:16,600 --> 00:58:19,840 Speaker 2: to extend it to a fifteen second play against one 1138 00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:22,000 Speaker 2: of the best pass rushes that we've like. It just 1139 00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:26,640 Speaker 2: seemed like he was always good for just those pulling 1140 00:58:26,720 --> 00:58:29,360 Speaker 2: it out of his butt yeah type of plays. So 1141 00:58:29,560 --> 00:58:35,080 Speaker 2: it was so frustrating the year the Vikings Stadium fell, 1142 00:58:35,800 --> 00:58:37,920 Speaker 2: the old Metrodome got too much snow on it and 1143 00:58:37,960 --> 00:58:40,600 Speaker 2: the ceiling collapse. That was when we played the coldest 1144 00:58:40,640 --> 00:58:43,400 Speaker 2: playoff game, and that was against Russell Wilson, And that 1145 00:58:43,440 --> 00:58:45,000 Speaker 2: was another one where it was just there was only 1146 00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:48,760 Speaker 2: one touchdown score by Seattle and it came out of 1147 00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:51,840 Speaker 2: nowhere third quarter, the only play that we weren't in 1148 00:58:51,880 --> 00:58:52,720 Speaker 2: position to stop. 1149 00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:56,200 Speaker 1: Do you have fond memories of that season? I know 1150 00:58:56,240 --> 00:59:01,000 Speaker 1: the end was brutal, that that game was on it own, 1151 00:59:02,520 --> 00:59:05,920 Speaker 1: just heartbreaking because of all the circumstances, But do you 1152 00:59:05,960 --> 00:59:07,960 Speaker 1: have fun memories of that season? Because it's like Brett 1153 00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:11,240 Speaker 1: Farv and you get the It was just interesting how 1154 00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:13,680 Speaker 1: the dome collapse from all the snow, and then there 1155 00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:16,720 Speaker 1: was still the excitement from being the NFC Championship game 1156 00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:19,840 Speaker 1: leadyear before, and then you know the last run with 1157 00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:22,440 Speaker 1: Farv and then you've got those that that Monday night 1158 00:59:22,520 --> 00:59:25,840 Speaker 1: football game on a Tuesday. I don't know. There was 1159 00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:28,680 Speaker 1: just so many moments from that year. Randy Moss was 1160 00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:30,840 Speaker 1: that the year Randy Moss came back to the Vikings. 1161 00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:34,000 Speaker 1: Like Yo, there was so many moments from that season. 1162 00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:37,360 Speaker 1: How do you now my way past it? How do 1163 00:59:37,400 --> 00:59:38,360 Speaker 1: you like remember it. 1164 00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:42,120 Speaker 2: And I do. I remember the just the circus, Yeah, 1165 00:59:42,160 --> 00:59:45,120 Speaker 2: Like it was exciting to have your team be the 1166 00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:48,600 Speaker 2: most exciting because I topic on every single show. 1167 00:59:48,920 --> 00:59:51,400 Speaker 1: I vividly remember the week to week of that season, 1168 00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:52,560 Speaker 1: just like what's next? 1169 00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:53,520 Speaker 2: This is awesome? 1170 00:59:57,400 --> 00:59:58,360 Speaker 1: No you don't remember? 1171 00:59:59,400 --> 00:59:59,560 Speaker 2: No? 1172 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:03,520 Speaker 1: Okay, all right, the Giants at the bottom. We can 1173 01:00:03,560 --> 01:00:11,440 Speaker 1: both agree on that. The next one's probably if it's me, 1174 01:00:11,520 --> 01:00:14,280 Speaker 1: it's the Cowboys. I picked the Cowboys. I think you're 1175 01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:15,360 Speaker 1: gonna say Cowboys. 1176 01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:17,919 Speaker 2: I got the Commanders at this next five. 1177 01:00:18,000 --> 01:00:19,200 Speaker 1: Oh that's a big drop back. 1178 01:00:19,400 --> 01:00:23,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, oh boy, I just don't. We kind of talked 1179 01:00:23,840 --> 01:00:27,600 Speaker 2: about this of the AFC episode of just if you're 1180 01:00:27,640 --> 01:00:30,280 Speaker 2: looking at the team and what's improved and what's declined, 1181 01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:33,400 Speaker 2: Like I think the example that we gave was Denver, 1182 01:00:33,520 --> 01:00:35,000 Speaker 2: and everybody's just like, well, their defense is going to 1183 01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:37,720 Speaker 2: be even better? All right with their defense was already 1184 01:00:38,040 --> 01:00:40,120 Speaker 2: like it was already great, So how do you project 1185 01:00:40,680 --> 01:00:42,919 Speaker 2: like that it's going to be better? And so that's 1186 01:00:42,920 --> 01:00:46,120 Speaker 2: the tough part for me with the Commanders is Jane 1187 01:00:46,160 --> 01:00:51,320 Speaker 2: Daniels electric highest, like the fourth down conversion rate that 1188 01:00:51,360 --> 01:00:54,120 Speaker 2: they did last year highest it's ever been in the NFL. 1189 01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:57,360 Speaker 2: Do we think that that's going to continue? Do we 1190 01:00:57,440 --> 01:00:59,000 Speaker 2: think that they're still going to be able to pull 1191 01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:02,760 Speaker 2: those wins out? Like think of the Bears the Phail 1192 01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:06,200 Speaker 2: Mary where the guys like yelling at the crowd and 1193 01:01:06,240 --> 01:01:08,640 Speaker 2: out of position and ends up like batting the ball 1194 01:01:08,760 --> 01:01:13,320 Speaker 2: into The Commanders needed that, like to win that game. 1195 01:01:13,440 --> 01:01:15,440 Speaker 1: That changed their entire momentum, Like you know, do. 1196 01:01:15,440 --> 01:01:18,000 Speaker 2: We expect them to or the Chiefs we said, like 1197 01:01:18,040 --> 01:01:20,360 Speaker 2: do we expect them to win those close games again? 1198 01:01:21,080 --> 01:01:24,560 Speaker 2: And good point, this is another team that I think 1199 01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:27,520 Speaker 2: kind of fits into that mold of last year. Coming 1200 01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:29,960 Speaker 2: into the season, nobody was talking about the Commanders like 1201 01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:31,960 Speaker 2: they didn't have depth of talent anywhere. 1202 01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:34,880 Speaker 1: They caught everybody by surprise, and they they showed out 1203 01:01:35,040 --> 01:01:38,200 Speaker 1: to be pretty exciting at times, like to your point, 1204 01:01:38,240 --> 01:01:42,680 Speaker 1: look what it took to beat the Bears, And yeah, 1205 01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:45,720 Speaker 1: you got to expect them to really to take a 1206 01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:48,280 Speaker 1: next step really pound Bears, and I don't know if 1207 01:01:48,280 --> 01:01:48,720 Speaker 1: they could. 1208 01:01:49,240 --> 01:01:50,880 Speaker 2: And so that's where it's just like, all right, are 1209 01:01:50,880 --> 01:01:54,520 Speaker 2: we fooling ourselves into thinking like, hey, this will be 1210 01:01:54,560 --> 01:01:58,200 Speaker 2: a top twelve offense again this year? I mean, their 1211 01:01:58,200 --> 01:02:01,960 Speaker 2: big addition was bringing in Debo. What's I mean, what's 1212 01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:06,600 Speaker 2: he got left? You know, they re signed Terry McLaurin, 1213 01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:10,000 Speaker 2: which I think was the right move. But he's not 1214 01:02:11,360 --> 01:02:14,840 Speaker 2: He's not a spring chicken. He's not you know, a 1215 01:02:14,920 --> 01:02:18,080 Speaker 2: fourth or fifth year wide receiver. He's been in the 1216 01:02:18,160 --> 01:02:19,640 Speaker 2: league for eight years now. 1217 01:02:19,720 --> 01:02:21,560 Speaker 1: But he's a guy they were probably counting on going 1218 01:02:21,560 --> 01:02:24,120 Speaker 1: into the year. Hey do you need that production? So yeah, 1219 01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:26,400 Speaker 1: resigning him and not having being forced into a trade 1220 01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:27,920 Speaker 1: situation that was big. 1221 01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:30,360 Speaker 2: So that a lot of these reasons are why I 1222 01:02:30,400 --> 01:02:32,080 Speaker 2: have the Commanders a little bit lower. 1223 01:02:32,280 --> 01:02:35,680 Speaker 1: So I've got to think now the Cowboys, Yes, because 1224 01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:38,400 Speaker 1: there's no chance you've got the Eagles at the Cowboys. 1225 01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:41,160 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, yeah, no, I put the Cowboys in here, 1226 01:02:41,160 --> 01:02:44,640 Speaker 2: and I'm probably I think Dak's a good quarterback. I 1227 01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:48,600 Speaker 2: think ce d Lamb is a good wide receiver. Yeah, 1228 01:02:48,880 --> 01:02:51,200 Speaker 2: I think Pickens could be an improvement there, but I think, 1229 01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:52,800 Speaker 2: I mean, Dak being healthy is going to be the 1230 01:02:52,800 --> 01:02:57,160 Speaker 2: big variable. Now. Obviously losing Parsons is going to hurt 1231 01:02:57,200 --> 01:03:00,840 Speaker 2: that defense, but they've still got a really really good secondary. 1232 01:03:01,520 --> 01:03:03,960 Speaker 2: They still match up, you know, pretty well with a 1233 01:03:03,960 --> 01:03:05,960 Speaker 2: lot of teams and I think with that offense you 1234 01:03:05,960 --> 01:03:08,760 Speaker 2: can bank on it. So I'm probably going a little 1235 01:03:08,800 --> 01:03:13,280 Speaker 2: bit more with I'll take the veteran Dak over. You know, 1236 01:03:13,440 --> 01:03:18,400 Speaker 2: Jaydon Daniels getting doing even better than he did last year, 1237 01:03:18,800 --> 01:03:22,640 Speaker 2: last run with dak if I mean, if the Cowboys 1238 01:03:22,640 --> 01:03:26,520 Speaker 2: missed the playoffs, I think you could make that argument. Yeah, 1239 01:03:28,080 --> 01:03:30,560 Speaker 2: you can't tell me that Jerry Jones didn't make that 1240 01:03:30,680 --> 01:03:34,880 Speaker 2: trade of Parsons to get those two number ones without thinking, hey, 1241 01:03:34,960 --> 01:03:37,400 Speaker 2: I've got four number one picks now in the next 1242 01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:43,400 Speaker 2: two years. Is that enough to get you know, if well, 1243 01:03:43,520 --> 01:03:46,680 Speaker 2: assuming Arch Manning looks better than he did on Saturday, 1244 01:03:46,760 --> 01:03:47,520 Speaker 2: is that enough? 1245 01:03:48,600 --> 01:03:50,840 Speaker 1: You know Arch is gonna be Okay? 1246 01:03:50,960 --> 01:03:53,320 Speaker 2: What other team do we have? Also, it's like this 1247 01:03:53,360 --> 01:03:55,120 Speaker 2: where it's just like you're looking at Jerry Jones and 1248 01:03:55,160 --> 01:03:57,840 Speaker 2: you're like, how many years does he have left? I know, 1249 01:03:58,000 --> 01:04:00,840 Speaker 2: like he needs to win? Like now, yeah, there aren't 1250 01:04:00,920 --> 01:04:03,200 Speaker 2: very many other NFL teams here, just like oh this 1251 01:04:03,280 --> 01:04:04,560 Speaker 2: owners get Like, you know. 1252 01:04:05,760 --> 01:04:07,720 Speaker 1: Did you watch that Cowboys doc on Netflix? 1253 01:04:07,840 --> 01:04:08,880 Speaker 2: I haven't. I haven't yet. 1254 01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:12,640 Speaker 1: You really need to. It's so good, it's very It 1255 01:04:12,800 --> 01:04:15,160 Speaker 1: just reminds me of that bullstock that that got us 1256 01:04:15,160 --> 01:04:17,400 Speaker 1: through COVID in twenty twenty. 1257 01:04:17,960 --> 01:04:18,520 Speaker 2: So good. 1258 01:04:19,960 --> 01:04:23,080 Speaker 1: But Jerry, you can just see that energy of the 1259 01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:26,200 Speaker 1: nineties he had in his eyes and then now you 1260 01:04:26,280 --> 01:04:28,520 Speaker 1: know he wants it. You can see in the interviews 1261 01:04:28,600 --> 01:04:29,880 Speaker 1: now he wants it. 1262 01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:31,120 Speaker 2: But oh, I mean he's. 1263 01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:35,080 Speaker 1: Old, he's tired, he's been through it. You know. It's uh, well, 1264 01:04:35,240 --> 01:04:37,040 Speaker 1: it happens to all of us. It's gonna happen to 1265 01:04:37,040 --> 01:04:37,440 Speaker 1: all of us. 1266 01:04:37,480 --> 01:04:41,240 Speaker 2: It's it's got a big parallel to to like the Yankees, 1267 01:04:41,520 --> 01:04:45,040 Speaker 2: like when Steinbrenner passed, that's great, and his son took 1268 01:04:45,080 --> 01:04:49,160 Speaker 2: over like his son doesn't spend like the fathers, And 1269 01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:51,040 Speaker 2: I know that That's one thing that they pointed out too, 1270 01:04:51,080 --> 01:04:53,920 Speaker 2: is that Jones's son has taken over more and more 1271 01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:59,240 Speaker 2: responsibility and he's very like fiscally could like he's not 1272 01:04:59,480 --> 01:05:03,440 Speaker 2: wanting Michael Irving, he's not wanting to make like big splashes. 1273 01:05:03,520 --> 01:05:05,280 Speaker 1: What do you think he's been worrieding about the padres 1274 01:05:05,520 --> 01:05:07,880 Speaker 1: with Peter Sidler, who's willing to write the check for 1275 01:05:07,920 --> 01:05:09,920 Speaker 1: what it takes. And then he dies and then his 1276 01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:12,280 Speaker 1: brothers are like, hey, we have to run a business here, 1277 01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:15,000 Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh no, you doubt the business comes 1278 01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:17,360 Speaker 1: when you win. It all will come when you win. 1279 01:05:17,440 --> 01:05:19,960 Speaker 1: I will buy so much merch just win. 1280 01:05:20,240 --> 01:05:23,000 Speaker 2: I mean we've already if they committed to you know, 1281 01:05:25,320 --> 01:05:28,120 Speaker 2: I'm going to be dropping a couple of g's. 1282 01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:33,920 Speaker 1: Just just win. Yeah. But anyway, Yeah, that's so true, Jerry, 1283 01:05:35,080 --> 01:05:37,240 Speaker 1: on a different level than the Suns, because the Suns 1284 01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:39,440 Speaker 1: they what have they got thirty years they hope to 1285 01:05:39,480 --> 01:05:43,200 Speaker 1: have running this thing. So yeah, they they're playing the 1286 01:05:43,240 --> 01:05:47,200 Speaker 1: long game for sure. All right, Well that leaves the Eagles, 1287 01:05:47,680 --> 01:05:50,280 Speaker 1: which we're talking about the world champs. You got to 1288 01:05:50,320 --> 01:05:52,479 Speaker 1: figure they're going to run it, try to run it back. 1289 01:05:52,840 --> 01:05:58,200 Speaker 1: That's tough to do because the schedule's tough. They're everybody's 1290 01:05:58,240 --> 01:06:00,680 Speaker 1: favorite to win. There's Vegas is favorite to win the 1291 01:06:00,680 --> 01:06:03,200 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Had you agree with that. 1292 01:06:04,760 --> 01:06:07,680 Speaker 2: I don't think that they're I wouldn't put them as 1293 01:06:07,720 --> 01:06:09,880 Speaker 2: my favorite to win the Super Bowl. I do think 1294 01:06:09,920 --> 01:06:13,960 Speaker 2: that the AFC teams that we went through yesterday, I mean, 1295 01:06:14,080 --> 01:06:18,480 Speaker 2: I think Buffalo and the Ravens would be a lot 1296 01:06:18,520 --> 01:06:22,520 Speaker 2: tougher outs for Philly than the Chiefs were last year 1297 01:06:22,520 --> 01:06:26,480 Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl. I do think that they're the 1298 01:06:26,520 --> 01:06:27,640 Speaker 2: best team in the NFC. 1299 01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:30,040 Speaker 1: Top down best team. 1300 01:06:30,120 --> 01:06:34,200 Speaker 2: Ye. Yeah, I put them above the Lions. Yeah, and 1301 01:06:34,240 --> 01:06:36,520 Speaker 2: obviously I mean they're Rams and the Falcons by the 1302 01:06:37,440 --> 01:06:42,880 Speaker 2: division winners. Yeah, I just don't they So they're going 1303 01:06:42,960 --> 01:06:44,600 Speaker 2: to have to prove it here in the regular season 1304 01:06:44,640 --> 01:06:46,240 Speaker 2: two because you know, we kind of talked about those 1305 01:06:46,320 --> 01:06:49,160 Speaker 2: other divisions they're playing. They play the NFC North, so 1306 01:06:49,200 --> 01:06:51,400 Speaker 2: they'll play all three of the NFC North's teams, and 1307 01:06:51,400 --> 01:06:54,240 Speaker 2: they also play the AFC West, so they're also going 1308 01:06:54,280 --> 01:06:56,960 Speaker 2: to be playing the Chargers, the Broncos, and the Chiefs. 1309 01:06:57,480 --> 01:07:00,640 Speaker 2: So like, if there was an argument to be made 1310 01:07:00,680 --> 01:07:03,320 Speaker 2: that hey, they're they're gonna fall off or that they 1311 01:07:03,360 --> 01:07:05,360 Speaker 2: won't get you know, number one seed, I think that 1312 01:07:05,360 --> 01:07:08,800 Speaker 2: that's it. Is that all right? You know those six 1313 01:07:08,840 --> 01:07:11,800 Speaker 2: teams that I just listed off, you know they go 1314 01:07:11,880 --> 01:07:14,320 Speaker 2: three and three on those. I mean that might be 1315 01:07:14,440 --> 01:07:17,440 Speaker 2: enough room for Hey, if the Commanders are better than 1316 01:07:17,680 --> 01:07:20,120 Speaker 2: they were last year, or if the Cowboys the Cowboys, 1317 01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:22,840 Speaker 2: or you know, it could lead to you know, the 1318 01:07:22,880 --> 01:07:25,280 Speaker 2: Lions or another team just having that record and pushing 1319 01:07:25,280 --> 01:07:27,520 Speaker 2: them on the number one seed. And I mean that's 1320 01:07:27,560 --> 01:07:29,400 Speaker 2: such an advantage there really is. 1321 01:07:31,040 --> 01:07:35,360 Speaker 1: The Eagles last season, you wouldn't say we're world beaters 1322 01:07:35,600 --> 01:07:38,960 Speaker 1: from the get No. They turned into a really good 1323 01:07:38,960 --> 01:07:41,760 Speaker 1: team that just got hot at the end, and then 1324 01:07:41,800 --> 01:07:44,920 Speaker 1: it was just matchup wise, they were the better squad 1325 01:07:44,960 --> 01:07:45,440 Speaker 1: every time. 1326 01:07:46,040 --> 01:07:48,640 Speaker 2: And we're only I mean coming into last year if 1327 01:07:48,680 --> 01:07:50,640 Speaker 2: we like I feel like, if we went back and 1328 01:07:50,680 --> 01:07:53,560 Speaker 2: listened to this episode last year, we might have put 1329 01:07:53,760 --> 01:07:58,080 Speaker 2: Siriani hot seat and said that he's probably like a 1330 01:07:58,120 --> 01:08:01,120 Speaker 2: coach that could get fired midseason. But they were bad 1331 01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:01,919 Speaker 2: two years ago. 1332 01:08:02,080 --> 01:08:05,280 Speaker 1: Believe that. And actually, if we were to actually go back, 1333 01:08:06,120 --> 01:08:09,560 Speaker 1: I've had this idea, I'll just I'll pitch this idea, 1334 01:08:09,600 --> 01:08:11,080 Speaker 1: so now it's out in the world and somebody could 1335 01:08:11,120 --> 01:08:13,840 Speaker 1: take it. But I've had this idea. Or we do 1336 01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:17,080 Speaker 1: a podcast for a year. We'll do it fifty two weeks, 1337 01:08:17,080 --> 01:08:20,120 Speaker 1: We'll do fifty two episodes but not air them, and 1338 01:08:20,160 --> 01:08:23,240 Speaker 1: then the next year we start to air them a 1339 01:08:23,320 --> 01:08:25,920 Speaker 1: year later, and you could go back and listen to 1340 01:08:26,160 --> 01:08:30,880 Speaker 1: last year's news events from that week you get what 1341 01:08:30,920 --> 01:08:31,559 Speaker 1: I'm saying. 1342 01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:33,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, and just be like, when did that happen? Right? 1343 01:08:34,120 --> 01:08:38,240 Speaker 1: And if that was the if we had actually done 1344 01:08:38,240 --> 01:08:40,120 Speaker 1: this pod and we were listening to it, because I 1345 01:08:40,200 --> 01:08:43,840 Speaker 1: distinctly remember Syriana having to like defend himself. Remember he 1346 01:08:43,880 --> 01:08:45,800 Speaker 1: had his kids up at the press conference after the 1347 01:08:45,840 --> 01:08:49,439 Speaker 1: WHO and they were like, you're using the presses like 1348 01:08:49,439 --> 01:08:52,519 Speaker 1: you're using your kids to as a shield and all 1349 01:08:52,520 --> 01:08:55,040 Speaker 1: this stuff. And he was under some pressure. He was 1350 01:08:55,120 --> 01:08:58,200 Speaker 1: under some pressure. And then they made a trade. Was 1351 01:08:58,240 --> 01:08:59,400 Speaker 1: it the Aj Brown Trader? 1352 01:08:59,479 --> 01:09:01,679 Speaker 2: Was that the year? Uh? No, Yeah, they've had Aj 1353 01:09:01,800 --> 01:09:03,920 Speaker 2: for I know they made. 1354 01:09:03,800 --> 01:09:07,120 Speaker 1: A trade and then and then things started to roll. Yeah, 1355 01:09:07,280 --> 01:09:09,439 Speaker 1: but there he was under some He was under some 1356 01:09:09,479 --> 01:09:12,400 Speaker 1: pressure there early on, and I remember his kids being 1357 01:09:12,439 --> 01:09:14,879 Speaker 1: a thing that the press wasn't happy about and whatnot. 1358 01:09:14,920 --> 01:09:17,240 Speaker 1: But if we did that, Pod, I know we would. 1359 01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:18,719 Speaker 1: This is something we would have talked about. 1360 01:09:20,160 --> 01:09:22,439 Speaker 2: It's one of those things too where that they the 1361 01:09:22,479 --> 01:09:25,559 Speaker 2: Eagles have kind of moved into. You know, we both 1362 01:09:25,600 --> 01:09:27,479 Speaker 2: get I think excited for the draft. You know, at 1363 01:09:27,560 --> 01:09:31,759 Speaker 2: least watch like the first night. But it's kind of wild, 1364 01:09:31,880 --> 01:09:36,519 Speaker 2: just like they've become that new team that everybody gushes 1365 01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:38,519 Speaker 2: over there like draft picks, and it is I mean 1366 01:09:38,560 --> 01:09:41,479 Speaker 2: it's pretty I mean Roseman like he's very very good 1367 01:09:41,880 --> 01:09:44,680 Speaker 2: like what he does, but it does feel like we 1368 01:09:44,760 --> 01:09:49,280 Speaker 2: give everybody that he picks or any players like the 1369 01:09:49,320 --> 01:09:51,760 Speaker 2: benefit of the doubt. Oh yeah, but I think so 1370 01:09:51,840 --> 01:09:54,559 Speaker 2: they're bringing back and I don't have this in front 1371 01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:56,760 Speaker 2: of me, but I believe that bringing back most of 1372 01:09:56,800 --> 01:10:00,960 Speaker 2: their offense. But they've got like seven tributors like on 1373 01:10:01,040 --> 01:10:03,320 Speaker 2: defense that have all left. Like their secondary is not 1374 01:10:03,400 --> 01:10:03,800 Speaker 2: that great. 1375 01:10:03,920 --> 01:10:06,040 Speaker 1: They signed a running back or we signed a running 1376 01:10:06,040 --> 01:10:06,920 Speaker 1: back that's pretty good. 1377 01:10:08,160 --> 01:10:10,800 Speaker 2: So that's Barkley. Yeah, yeah, I think I think you're 1378 01:10:10,880 --> 01:10:13,559 Speaker 2: kind of projecting out that that offense is probably going 1379 01:10:13,680 --> 01:10:16,200 Speaker 2: to have to be a top tier offense again. 1380 01:10:16,840 --> 01:10:18,599 Speaker 1: And I don't want to be a hater, but Barkley 1381 01:10:18,680 --> 01:10:19,720 Speaker 1: is not going to have as good a season this 1382 01:10:19,840 --> 01:10:20,479 Speaker 1: year as he did last. 1383 01:10:20,560 --> 01:10:24,840 Speaker 2: No, I think that's just yeah, that's Kerry count that's math. 1384 01:10:24,960 --> 01:10:25,840 Speaker 1: That's just how it works. 1385 01:10:25,960 --> 01:10:29,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. Plus I don't have him on my fantasy team, 1386 01:10:29,280 --> 01:10:31,760 Speaker 2: So I mean, if one of us had on our 1387 01:10:31,800 --> 01:10:33,800 Speaker 2: fantasy team, you know, we might give him the benefit 1388 01:10:33,840 --> 01:10:35,120 Speaker 2: of the doubt, might give him a benefit. 1389 01:10:35,520 --> 01:10:38,639 Speaker 1: I just want to say, you mentioned Draft night. We 1390 01:10:38,720 --> 01:10:42,360 Speaker 1: spent it at Hooters watching the first round. That was fun, 1391 01:10:42,439 --> 01:10:44,960 Speaker 1: So shout out Hooters. If we want to do some 1392 01:10:45,120 --> 01:10:49,360 Speaker 1: kind of like sponsorship dealers, we we're down. But no, 1393 01:10:49,400 --> 01:10:51,800 Speaker 1: we we spent out Hooters. That was fun and it 1394 01:10:51,840 --> 01:10:56,680 Speaker 1: was fun to see other people in the restaurant with 1395 01:10:56,800 --> 01:10:59,799 Speaker 1: like their team. It was not it was interesting. 1396 01:10:59,840 --> 01:11:03,320 Speaker 2: It was a very eclectic like group there was. Yeah. 1397 01:11:03,400 --> 01:11:05,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's always fun and you can get around 1398 01:11:05,160 --> 01:11:08,639 Speaker 1: people all the teams and because normally you go into 1399 01:11:08,720 --> 01:11:11,439 Speaker 1: any place like that and it's like specifically, all right, 1400 01:11:11,439 --> 01:11:13,960 Speaker 1: you're wearing Viking stuff because we're probably watching Vikings game. No, 1401 01:11:14,120 --> 01:11:16,280 Speaker 1: I'm wearing charge of stuff. Yeah, the Chargers are part playing. 1402 01:11:16,320 --> 01:11:19,479 Speaker 1: But this was like, it was pretty random. It's draft night, 1403 01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:22,280 Speaker 1: there's thirty two possibilities, so so it was it was 1404 01:11:22,320 --> 01:11:22,800 Speaker 1: a lot of fun. 1405 01:11:23,320 --> 01:11:28,000 Speaker 2: My cousin, one of my cousins, lives in Fargo, North Dakota, big, 1406 01:11:28,080 --> 01:11:31,640 Speaker 2: big Vikings fan, but he went to the draft and 1407 01:11:31,720 --> 01:11:34,240 Speaker 2: the reason I kind of thought about this the draft 1408 01:11:34,240 --> 01:11:36,479 Speaker 2: this last year was at Lambeau.

I find that so fascinating. Was it 1429 01:12:29,280 --> 01:12:31,080 Speaker 1: the same type of vibe as in when you were 1430 01:12:31,080 --> 01:12:33,600 Speaker 1: in a casino? Was it different altogether? 1431 01:12:33,800 --> 01:12:37,080 Speaker 2: Like I mean, these are just like regular bar, but 1432 01:12:37,120 --> 01:12:41,080 Speaker 2: they have like two like blackjack tables, like just just 1433 01:12:41,240 --> 01:12:42,200 Speaker 2: sucked into the back. 1434 01:12:42,560 --> 01:12:45,160 Speaker 1: So is there like a dealer sitting waiting like at 1435 01:12:45,160 --> 01:12:46,559 Speaker 1: the casino or do you have to go to the 1436 01:12:46,560 --> 01:12:48,400 Speaker 1: bar and be like I'd like to play black chain. 1437 01:12:48,680 --> 01:12:51,720 Speaker 2: There was there was a so that's the thing.

You can run a table one hundred vibes. 1475 01:14:24,720 --> 01:14:27,679 Speaker 1: It's not always about the cards. The dealer can change 1476 01:14:27,720 --> 01:14:30,720 Speaker 1: the vibe, like when a good dealer you're rolling and 1477 01:14:30,760 --> 01:14:32,479 Speaker 1: then it goes a break and then the new dealer 1478 01:14:32,520 --> 01:14:34,719 Speaker 1: comes up, the break dealer, and then it's just flying 1479 01:14:34,760 --> 01:14:36,160 Speaker 1: through guards and you're like, I gotta. 1480 01:14:36,160 --> 01:14:40,040 Speaker 2: I haven't run into any turbo dealers, all right. And 1481 01:14:40,200 --> 01:14:45,040 Speaker 2: also there's limits on the tables, so I want I 1482 01:14:45,040 --> 01:14:46,360 Speaker 2: want to say that the ones that I went to, 1483 01:14:46,479 --> 01:14:49,120 Speaker 2: they you couldn't bet more than twenty five dollars on 1484 01:14:49,200 --> 01:14:49,559 Speaker 2: a hand. 1485 01:14:49,760 --> 01:14:51,760 Speaker 1: Okay, all right, so there's. 1486 01:14:51,800 --> 01:14:54,160 Speaker 2: So it's like and a lot of them were like 1487 01:14:54,200 --> 01:14:57,679 Speaker 2: two or three dollars tables. Yeah, So I mean, which 1488 01:14:57,720 --> 01:15:00,000 Speaker 2: to me is awesome. That is awesome because that means 1489 01:15:00,160 --> 01:15:02,240 Speaker 2: that I could bring, you know, two hundred bucks and 1490 01:15:02,240 --> 01:15:06,960 Speaker 2: I could probably play for a long long time. Probably 1491 01:15:07,000 --> 01:15:08,639 Speaker 2: the reason that we didn't talk about it is because 1492 01:15:08,760 --> 01:15:12,640 Speaker 2: I did not win, and I did not play for 1493 01:15:12,680 --> 01:15:13,160 Speaker 2: a long time. 1494 01:15:13,200 --> 01:15:15,479 Speaker 1: I did not play for a long time. Okay, So yeah, 1495 01:15:15,520 --> 01:15:17,519 Speaker 1: normally when you come back with a big win story, 1496 01:15:17,840 --> 01:15:21,559 Speaker 1: I mean, it's legend all right. We got one division left. 1497 01:15:21,760 --> 01:15:26,320 Speaker 1: It is the most important one. It is the NFC North. 1498 01:15:27,280 --> 01:15:29,479 Speaker 1: We already know you're Vikings fans, so we already know 1499 01:15:29,560 --> 01:15:32,200 Speaker 1: they won't be at the bottom. But the town on 1500 01:15:32,240 --> 01:15:35,479 Speaker 1: the field proves that as well. I got it, and 1501 01:15:35,880 --> 01:15:39,040 Speaker 1: I got a hunch the Bears are going to be the. 1502 01:15:39,080 --> 01:15:44,519 Speaker 2: Team in the Yeah, Johnny, can we get some applause? 1503 01:15:44,560 --> 01:15:48,680 Speaker 1: And yeah, Johnny, come on, give it something, Johnny. Can 1504 01:15:48,720 --> 01:15:50,519 Speaker 1: I just give a shout out to Johnny real quick? 1505 01:15:50,600 --> 01:15:55,280 Speaker 1: This guy again, This guy, he he's available anytime we 1506 01:15:55,320 --> 01:16:00,080 Speaker 1: need him. He is willing to sit and listen to 1507 01:16:00,120 --> 01:16:02,679 Speaker 1: everything that we say and just make sure he never 1508 01:16:02,800 --> 01:16:05,320 Speaker 1: speaks up. He never speaks out of turn. He's a 1509 01:16:05,360 --> 01:16:07,360 Speaker 1: great producer. In fact, I would say he's one of 1510 01:16:07,360 --> 01:16:10,840 Speaker 1: the best in the industry. He is somebody that, when 1511 01:16:10,880 --> 01:16:13,320 Speaker 1: it's all said and done with, laugh with me. He 1512 01:16:13,560 --> 01:16:20,840 Speaker 1: is somebody that is under valued and underappreciated in this industry, 1513 01:16:20,880 --> 01:16:23,759 Speaker 1: in this business. So I just want to give credit 1514 01:16:23,880 --> 01:16:26,599 Speaker 1: where credit's due to Johnny for his producing. 1515 01:16:27,880 --> 01:16:31,080 Speaker 2: This is a because I think in episode one hundred, 1516 01:16:31,120 --> 01:16:33,360 Speaker 2: I don't think you mentioned him at all. Yeah, even 1517 01:16:33,360 --> 01:16:35,240 Speaker 2: though he's been there since episode one. 1518 01:16:35,200 --> 01:16:40,680 Speaker 1: He has and sometimes sometimes it's about me. Can I 1519 01:16:40,800 --> 01:16:41,800 Speaker 1: just put that out there? 1520 01:16:42,240 --> 01:16:45,000 Speaker 2: Well, there was also a good like dozen episodes I 1521 01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:47,320 Speaker 2: feel like where he was pretty close to losing his job. 1522 01:16:47,400 --> 01:16:50,640 Speaker 1: He really was. I did actually have a different producer 1523 01:16:50,680 --> 01:16:52,719 Speaker 1: for a few episodes, and I brought him back because 1524 01:16:53,120 --> 01:16:55,160 Speaker 1: he's core.

We talked about, ye, hey he's got a 1561 01:18:48,360 --> 01:18:52,679 Speaker 2: really long leash because we knew coming into the league 1562 01:18:52,680 --> 01:18:58,920 Speaker 2: that hey, he was going to be super you know, talented. Now, 1563 01:18:59,000 --> 01:19:02,000 Speaker 2: the report's coming out of training camp preseason, all those 1564 01:19:02,280 --> 01:19:05,400 Speaker 2: like not real positive. No, it does not sound like, 1565 01:19:05,760 --> 01:19:08,720 Speaker 2: you know, Ben Jhonson the new head coach, It does 1566 01:19:08,800 --> 01:19:12,200 Speaker 2: not sound like he's having a great time installing this 1567 01:19:12,439 --> 01:19:13,800 Speaker 2: Detroit offense in. 1568 01:19:13,920 --> 01:19:16,680 Speaker 1: Isn't it interesting because the report's coming out of it 1569 01:19:16,880 --> 01:19:19,200 Speaker 1: last season was that he was going to be a 1570 01:19:19,240 --> 01:19:20,920 Speaker 1: world beater and look out for the Bears. Because I 1571 01:19:20,960 --> 01:19:22,800 Speaker 1: bought into it. I'm like, well, the Bears are real, 1572 01:19:23,000 --> 01:19:26,200 Speaker 1: Like I love Kileplins. And then Week one I instantly 1573 01:19:26,360 --> 01:19:29,560 Speaker 1: was like I was so wrong, Like on this very podcast, 1574 01:19:29,800 --> 01:19:32,320 Speaker 1: I was preaching the Bears. 1575 01:19:32,960 --> 01:19:33,639 Speaker 2: And I was wrong. 1576 01:19:34,360 --> 01:19:37,040 Speaker 1: It's so weird how it flipped from one year to 1577 01:19:37,080 --> 01:19:37,639 Speaker 1: the next. 1578 01:19:38,000 --> 01:19:42,640 Speaker 2: Well, and so we brought up the Commander's Game, you know, 1579 01:19:42,720 --> 01:19:44,720 Speaker 2: that was the Bears were four and two at that 1580 01:19:44,760 --> 01:19:49,160 Speaker 2: point and they won one more game for the rest 1581 01:19:49,200 --> 01:19:51,840 Speaker 2: of the season where the Commanders that was like the 1582 01:19:51,880 --> 01:19:54,439 Speaker 2: first one where it was just like holding on. They're like, 1583 01:19:54,800 --> 01:19:58,800 Speaker 2: you know, so maybe there is a bizarre world where 1584 01:19:59,400 --> 01:20:01,400 Speaker 2: all of a sudden it all comes together, like they 1585 01:20:01,400 --> 01:20:04,400 Speaker 2: win that game like they should have, and it all 1586 01:20:04,439 --> 01:20:06,720 Speaker 2: comes together for Kleb and we're sitting here like, oh 1587 01:20:06,720 --> 01:20:08,240 Speaker 2: they were eight and night. 1588 01:20:08,400 --> 01:20:09,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, they could win the division. 1589 01:20:09,560 --> 01:20:12,519 Speaker 2: They could win the division, like because they do have 1590 01:20:13,720 --> 01:20:18,160 Speaker 2: I mean, they've got o'doonsay, they've got DJ Moore, like, 1591 01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:22,000 Speaker 2: they've got talent on that offensive side, they've got a 1592 01:20:22,080 --> 01:20:25,439 Speaker 2: talented defense. Their defense is good, like they should be 1593 01:20:25,479 --> 01:20:29,240 Speaker 2: a team that plays competitive in that division. 1594 01:20:29,400 --> 01:20:31,240 Speaker 1: So over under six and a half wins. 1595 01:20:34,200 --> 01:20:38,599 Speaker 2: So they're playing the AFC North and the NFC East, 1596 01:20:38,840 --> 01:20:40,280 Speaker 2: So I think I'm gonna go under. 1597 01:20:40,360 --> 01:20:44,880 Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, I actually the number actually is six and 1598 01:20:44,880 --> 01:20:47,920 Speaker 1: a half for them, and I'm pretty sure the favorite 1599 01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:51,360 Speaker 1: on the betting right now was under, So there you go. 1600 01:20:51,520 --> 01:20:56,920 Speaker 2: It just I mean, they've got six games the Lions, Packers, 1601 01:20:56,920 --> 01:20:58,799 Speaker 2: and Bikings, and they did take one from the Packers 1602 01:20:58,880 --> 01:21:01,719 Speaker 2: last year, yes they did so, but they got swept 1603 01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:05,719 Speaker 2: by the Vikings and the Lions. And it's probably pretty 1604 01:21:05,760 --> 01:21:08,559 Speaker 2: safe to say there's gonna be some more losses that 1605 01:21:08,600 --> 01:21:09,200 Speaker 2: are in there. 1606 01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:11,960 Speaker 1: Well, it gets interesting once you get past the Bears, 1607 01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:15,720 Speaker 1: because I am going to just assume you and I 1608 01:21:15,800 --> 01:21:18,040 Speaker 1: are on the same page that Detroit's the favorite to 1609 01:21:18,040 --> 01:21:21,400 Speaker 1: win the division. I mean they are forced to be 1610 01:21:21,439 --> 01:21:26,440 Speaker 1: reckoned with right now, which leaves the Packers and the Vikings. 1611 01:21:28,200 --> 01:21:29,439 Speaker 1: A week ago, I. 1612 01:21:29,360 --> 01:21:32,920 Speaker 2: Know what my answer was, I had a different right now. 1613 01:21:33,680 --> 01:21:37,120 Speaker 1: What do you think right now with after the big 1614 01:21:37,160 --> 01:21:39,679 Speaker 1: trade that the Packers had, how do you get sitting. 1615 01:21:41,360 --> 01:21:43,200 Speaker 2: So right now, I've got the Vikings sitting at that 1616 01:21:43,320 --> 01:21:47,679 Speaker 2: number three spot, and that's I think. Yeah, a week 1617 01:21:47,680 --> 01:21:50,599 Speaker 2: a week ago, I had the Vikings over I think 1618 01:21:50,600 --> 01:21:52,120 Speaker 2: I had the Vikings over there, and I was I 1619 01:21:52,240 --> 01:21:56,360 Speaker 2: was upset about basically, I mean, the Packers are getting 1620 01:21:56,400 --> 01:21:58,519 Speaker 2: a lot of love, Like they're getting so much love 1621 01:21:58,600 --> 01:22:01,960 Speaker 2: out there, and it's no pun intended with their quarterback 1622 01:22:02,000 --> 01:22:06,599 Speaker 2: also being then, But that was that's a That's a 1623 01:22:06,640 --> 01:22:10,800 Speaker 2: tough one to figure out for me, because last year 1624 01:22:10,840 --> 01:22:14,439 Speaker 2: the Packers went one in five in the division. They 1625 01:22:14,520 --> 01:22:17,599 Speaker 2: lost to the Eagles, like they lost to every playoff 1626 01:22:17,600 --> 01:22:20,800 Speaker 2: team that they faced in the regular season. So to 1627 01:22:20,880 --> 01:22:22,960 Speaker 2: say that, hey, the Packers are going to win the 1628 01:22:23,000 --> 01:22:26,000 Speaker 2: division all right, what's changed on their lineup that's going 1629 01:22:26,080 --> 01:22:28,200 Speaker 2: to cause them to win it? All right? So you 1630 01:22:28,240 --> 01:22:30,880 Speaker 2: know they bring in a lot of draft buzz about them. 1631 01:22:30,960 --> 01:22:35,080 Speaker 2: Matthew Golden, yep, all right. Well, I mean they had 1632 01:22:35,280 --> 01:22:37,880 Speaker 2: their big the notes that we probably had last year 1633 01:22:37,920 --> 01:22:40,040 Speaker 2: for these guys were that they have like three number 1634 01:22:40,040 --> 01:22:41,479 Speaker 2: two wide receivers yep. 1635 01:22:42,280 --> 01:22:43,639 Speaker 1: And that didn't change. 1636 01:22:43,720 --> 01:22:45,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, that didn't change. And I don't know that Golden 1637 01:22:45,800 --> 01:22:48,120 Speaker 2: moves that needle. Maybe maybe he is a world beater, 1638 01:22:48,240 --> 01:22:52,960 Speaker 2: but like wide receivers is the same as every other position. 1639 01:22:53,000 --> 01:22:55,160 Speaker 2: We don't know going in if they're going to be 1640 01:22:55,240 --> 01:22:56,880 Speaker 2: a great wide receiver, if they're going to be a 1641 01:22:56,920 --> 01:22:59,920 Speaker 2: bad one. You know, the famous one with Jefferson was 1642 01:23:00,080 --> 01:23:03,960 Speaker 2: like the fourth wide receiver taken in his class. Yeah, 1643 01:23:04,160 --> 01:23:06,720 Speaker 2: and can but you don't know. And I mean the 1644 01:23:06,760 --> 01:23:08,479 Speaker 2: Packers have been living in that same world where they've 1645 01:23:08,479 --> 01:23:10,400 Speaker 2: been picking a lot of these wide receivers in day two. 1646 01:23:11,160 --> 01:23:13,960 Speaker 2: Hey I love this pick, well, all right, but he 1647 01:23:14,120 --> 01:23:17,080 Speaker 2: doesn't turn into like what you want. So it was 1648 01:23:17,080 --> 01:23:19,200 Speaker 2: really tough for me to see them making this big 1649 01:23:19,240 --> 01:23:21,800 Speaker 2: swing where all of a sudden they were beating Yeah, 1650 01:23:21,800 --> 01:23:24,320 Speaker 2: maybe you beat the Vikings with like a rookie quarterback, 1651 01:23:24,360 --> 01:23:29,160 Speaker 2: maybe you know, you steal one from Detroit. But where 1652 01:23:29,200 --> 01:23:31,519 Speaker 2: did they prove that they could do that last year? 1653 01:23:32,000 --> 01:23:32,759 Speaker 2: And they didn't. 1654 01:23:32,840 --> 01:23:33,240 Speaker 1: They did not. 1655 01:23:35,080 --> 01:23:40,519 Speaker 2: But obviously, I mean bringing in Parsons h makes a difference. 1656 01:23:40,600 --> 01:23:42,639 Speaker 2: It makes a difference, and it like. 1657 01:23:43,120 --> 01:23:45,160 Speaker 1: That was my thing a week ago. I was saying, 1658 01:23:45,520 --> 01:23:48,400 Speaker 1: what did they possibly do that would tell me they're different? 1659 01:23:48,720 --> 01:23:50,960 Speaker 1: And I did like their draft as well, and I 1660 01:23:51,040 --> 01:23:53,719 Speaker 1: like their change of direction because they don't always draft offense. 1661 01:23:54,400 --> 01:23:57,960 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know why I said offense like that, 1662 01:23:58,000 --> 01:24:00,600 Speaker 1: but I did say it. I was hoping you. 1663 01:24:00,240 --> 01:24:02,200 Speaker 2: You'd call that out but I'm too offended. 1664 01:24:02,400 --> 01:24:05,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, but there was nothing there. Then they make this 1665 01:24:05,960 --> 01:24:09,280 Speaker 1: trade for Michael Parsons. I'm like, ah, right, that's a 1666 01:24:09,320 --> 01:24:12,400 Speaker 1: move that thirty one other teams didn't make. Like that's 1667 01:24:12,439 --> 01:24:13,240 Speaker 1: a big one. 1668 01:24:13,400 --> 01:24:18,800 Speaker 2: Yeah. And I mean, like the analytics on Parsons showed, like, 1669 01:24:18,840 --> 01:24:21,560 Speaker 2: I mean, he has had like the best win percentages 1670 01:24:22,000 --> 01:24:27,719 Speaker 2: against like those left tackles, Like he has had an impact. Honestly, 1671 01:24:27,760 --> 01:24:30,840 Speaker 2: looking at some of the ESPN science and I'm using 1672 01:24:30,920 --> 01:24:34,240 Speaker 2: quotations around science, but like seeing those win percentages, it 1673 01:24:34,320 --> 01:24:36,080 Speaker 2: kind of reminded me of like the talk around like 1674 01:24:36,080 --> 01:24:38,800 Speaker 2: a Dominkance sue right where it's just like, hey, this 1675 01:24:38,880 --> 01:24:41,519 Speaker 2: guy is so physical that you pretty much have to 1676 01:24:41,560 --> 01:24:46,200 Speaker 2: put two offensive linemen on him every single time. And 1677 01:24:46,280 --> 01:24:48,519 Speaker 2: so it does become kind of a force multiplier when 1678 01:24:48,560 --> 01:24:51,840 Speaker 2: you can put somebody at the top of your rush 1679 01:24:52,680 --> 01:24:55,360 Speaker 2: pecking order, because then that means that, hey, your second 1680 01:24:55,360 --> 01:24:59,040 Speaker 2: best rusher now doesn't have to face a double team, 1681 01:24:59,200 --> 01:25:02,080 Speaker 2: or your guy you work ounting on going into the season, 1682 01:25:02,560 --> 01:25:05,160 Speaker 2: he's now going to have more free looks. The defensive 1683 01:25:05,160 --> 01:25:07,800 Speaker 2: tackles are going to have more free looks. Like that 1684 01:25:08,200 --> 01:25:10,360 Speaker 2: is going to help on every level, because I don't 1685 01:25:10,360 --> 01:25:13,840 Speaker 2: think that the Packers, I mean, they're their defense two 1686 01:25:13,920 --> 01:25:17,000 Speaker 2: years ago was bad. Their defense last year was okay, 1687 01:25:17,680 --> 01:25:21,280 Speaker 2: but they're I mean their secondary has I mean, here 1688 01:25:21,479 --> 01:25:25,840 Speaker 2: Alexander's gone. Like their secondary is not the world beaters you. 1689 01:25:25,800 --> 01:25:28,240 Speaker 1: Were telling me, because to your point, you know, you 1690 01:25:28,280 --> 01:25:30,240 Speaker 1: want to get better in every phase of the game 1691 01:25:30,280 --> 01:25:32,240 Speaker 1: every season. You want to see improvement. To your point, 1692 01:25:32,280 --> 01:25:38,400 Speaker 1: you were telling me, the Vikings, if we're a top twenty, 1693 01:25:38,560 --> 01:25:42,240 Speaker 1: top twenty five defense this season, we're a playoff team, 1694 01:25:42,280 --> 01:25:44,400 Speaker 1: like we're that's good enough because the offense is going 1695 01:25:44,479 --> 01:25:47,680 Speaker 1: to be Yeah, Brent Butter, right now, the Packers just 1696 01:25:47,840 --> 01:25:53,439 Speaker 1: took what was a mediocre to okay defense to what 1697 01:25:53,760 --> 01:25:58,360 Speaker 1: could now be maybe a pretty good one. Yeah, that's 1698 01:25:58,520 --> 01:26:01,639 Speaker 1: the difference. You think that's enough to make the jump 1699 01:26:01,840 --> 01:26:03,559 Speaker 1: where it's like, all right, we have a clear two. 1700 01:26:05,240 --> 01:26:10,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I do, because I mean the argument for 1701 01:26:10,360 --> 01:26:12,120 Speaker 2: the Packers being a playoff team, of the argument for 1702 01:26:12,160 --> 01:26:14,800 Speaker 2: them making that big jump is just, hey, Love was 1703 01:26:15,040 --> 01:26:17,679 Speaker 2: hobbled at the beginning of last season. He's healthy. Now 1704 01:26:17,760 --> 01:26:21,080 Speaker 2: he's got golden he's improved his wide receiver corp. They 1705 01:26:21,120 --> 01:26:24,240 Speaker 2: still got Josh Jacobs, like you, great running back, good 1706 01:26:24,280 --> 01:26:29,760 Speaker 2: offensive line, so you know, you get those pass rushers 1707 01:26:29,840 --> 01:26:34,400 Speaker 2: like in there, and it really plays well to taking 1708 01:26:34,439 --> 01:26:37,960 Speaker 2: some of that stress off of the offense. And hey, 1709 01:26:38,000 --> 01:26:41,040 Speaker 2: if that offense can get off to a fast start, 1710 01:26:41,360 --> 01:26:43,040 Speaker 2: I mean, look at what the Vikings did last year 1711 01:26:43,040 --> 01:26:45,360 Speaker 2: with like the Flores's defense. Well, how many of those 1712 01:26:45,360 --> 01:26:47,680 Speaker 2: games did the Vikings come out and score ten to 1713 01:26:47,760 --> 01:26:50,559 Speaker 2: fourteen points? They had a lead in the first quarter, 1714 01:26:50,920 --> 01:26:53,360 Speaker 2: and then that pass rush could just pin its ears 1715 01:26:53,400 --> 01:26:56,960 Speaker 2: back and just rush the quarterback. So you can make 1716 01:26:56,960 --> 01:26:59,599 Speaker 2: that argument here with Green Bay that hey, one hundred percent, 1717 01:27:00,120 --> 01:27:02,559 Speaker 2: he's going to help cover up their bad you know, 1718 01:27:02,600 --> 01:27:06,360 Speaker 2: their okay secondary just with that additional pass rush. 1719 01:27:06,400 --> 01:27:08,240 Speaker 1: Now, there was a report that came out today from 1720 01:27:08,280 --> 01:27:11,680 Speaker 1: Adam Schefter that said that Micah Parsons is going to 1721 01:27:11,720 --> 01:27:16,360 Speaker 1: need some kind of like injection or something for pain management, 1722 01:27:16,400 --> 01:27:18,960 Speaker 1: and he's gonna need it possibly as early as like 1723 01:27:19,120 --> 01:27:19,679 Speaker 1: week one. 1724 01:27:21,360 --> 01:27:24,439 Speaker 2: I mean, this fits with Packers culture. I mean, they 1725 01:27:24,520 --> 01:27:26,880 Speaker 2: got a lot of druggies, they got a lot of 1726 01:27:26,880 --> 01:27:28,200 Speaker 2: problems with drugs at that team. 1727 01:27:28,400 --> 01:27:29,599 Speaker 1: Did you watch the Brett Favre? 1728 01:27:31,080 --> 01:27:32,400 Speaker 2: That is what I was referencing. 1729 01:27:32,479 --> 01:27:35,360 Speaker 1: I love it, a lot of a lot of that's 1730 01:27:35,400 --> 01:27:36,840 Speaker 1: funny Midwest babe. 1731 01:27:37,360 --> 01:27:39,840 Speaker 2: Moral weakness on that team, Yeah, I don't see how 1732 01:27:39,840 --> 01:27:41,400 Speaker 2: anybody could truly be a fan. 1733 01:27:41,520 --> 01:27:45,760 Speaker 1: And well, the Packers and the Vikings, It truly is 1734 01:27:45,840 --> 01:27:49,879 Speaker 1: a story of the trade. So the Vikings are probably 1735 01:27:49,960 --> 01:27:50,360 Speaker 1: I mean. 1736 01:27:50,240 --> 01:27:52,639 Speaker 2: So I've got the Vikings as that that third Yeah, 1737 01:27:52,680 --> 01:27:54,840 Speaker 2: and it's probably, I mean, it makes sense. It's it's 1738 01:27:54,880 --> 01:27:59,120 Speaker 2: all about that uncertainty at the quarterback position. Do I 1739 01:27:59,160 --> 01:28:02,479 Speaker 2: think that? And maybe this kind of goes into our other 1740 01:28:02,520 --> 01:28:05,880 Speaker 2: conversations of just hey, do you buy the spike right, 1741 01:28:06,680 --> 01:28:08,800 Speaker 2: you know, the offense is not going to be better 1742 01:28:08,800 --> 01:28:12,280 Speaker 2: than it was last year. Like I I there's there's 1743 01:28:12,400 --> 01:28:15,479 Speaker 2: no if I saw a breakdown that was kind of 1744 01:28:15,479 --> 01:28:19,320 Speaker 2: talking about your your friend of the pod Justin Herbert. 1745 01:28:20,280 --> 01:28:23,639 Speaker 2: He has the best rookie seasons of all time. 1746 01:28:23,880 --> 01:28:28,360 Speaker 1: He's dating Madison Beers.

Yeah, he's a guy. You know, he's an 1752 01:28:42,880 --> 01:28:46,280 Speaker 1: eligible bachelor. He's living in southern California.

He's become a huge chess player. 1756 01:28:57,479 --> 01:28:59,920 Speaker 1: That was actually how they got outed as a cup 1757 01:29:00,320 --> 01:29:02,280 Speaker 1: as there was a picture of them together at a 1758 01:29:02,400 --> 01:29:05,320 Speaker 1: chess tournament in La. 1759 01:29:05,520 --> 01:29:08,040 Speaker 2: Do you so you've played chess before? 1760 01:29:08,240 --> 01:29:09,080 Speaker 1: I have against you. 1761 01:29:09,600 --> 01:29:11,160 Speaker 2: Do you think that you could beat Herbert? 1762 01:29:11,400 --> 01:29:14,400 Speaker 1: I don't think so, so thank you for the honest. 1763 01:29:14,520 --> 01:29:18,559 Speaker 1: A year ago, he was not a chess player, and 1764 01:29:18,600 --> 01:29:21,000 Speaker 1: at training camp one of his linemen or some one 1765 01:29:21,000 --> 01:29:23,960 Speaker 1: of his teammates challenged him and he got beat. And 1766 01:29:24,320 --> 01:29:27,200 Speaker 1: he has dedicated the last year to becoming like an 1767 01:29:27,200 --> 01:29:30,599 Speaker 1: expert at chess, and he goes to tournaments and so he's. 1768 01:29:30,439 --> 01:29:33,240 Speaker 2: Like, really, okay, yeah, as opposed to us that would 1769 01:29:33,400 --> 01:29:34,920 Speaker 2: play like once a year on. 1770 01:29:35,520 --> 01:29:38,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we're a different breed. 1771 01:29:38,040 --> 01:29:41,080 Speaker 2: But he became a spectator sport at the New Year's 1772 01:29:41,120 --> 01:29:44,920 Speaker 2: parties just because like your wife Kyle Kyle also, like 1773 01:29:44,960 --> 01:29:47,000 Speaker 2: they would watch and they would just be like, you 1774 01:29:47,000 --> 01:29:49,360 Speaker 2: guys are so dumb, like this is really like yeah, 1775 01:29:49,800 --> 01:29:52,360 Speaker 2: they would just criticize both of our playing. I'm just like, 1776 01:29:52,439 --> 01:29:54,400 Speaker 2: are you just trying to make this the longest game? 1777 01:29:54,680 --> 01:29:58,559 Speaker 1: We're just sit there chatting while we're No, he wants 1778 01:29:58,600 --> 01:30:01,959 Speaker 1: to become like the player. But anyway, I digress. 1779 01:30:02,280 --> 01:30:04,559 Speaker 2: So he had one of the best rookie seasons of 1780 01:30:04,600 --> 01:30:09,120 Speaker 2: all time. Okay, he did not have Donald numbers from 1781 01:30:09,160 --> 01:30:12,680 Speaker 2: last year. You know, Donald had thirty eight touchdowns, right, 1782 01:30:13,280 --> 01:30:15,439 Speaker 2: So I think it's it's a fool's Errand to say 1783 01:30:15,520 --> 01:30:19,640 Speaker 2: that McCarthy's going to come in and sure have and 1784 01:30:19,720 --> 01:30:23,200 Speaker 2: do that if he's Justin Herbert. I think the Vikings 1785 01:30:23,200 --> 01:30:24,360 Speaker 2: are like a static. 1786 01:30:24,479 --> 01:30:27,080 Speaker 1: If he's just In Herbert, the Vikings are Super Bowl contenders. 1787 01:30:27,160 --> 01:30:30,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you know, because the Vikings have made They 1788 01:30:30,520 --> 01:30:33,680 Speaker 2: picked up a center and a right guard that were 1789 01:30:33,720 --> 01:30:37,920 Speaker 2: both like top of the lists this year. They're getting 1790 01:30:37,960 --> 01:30:42,840 Speaker 2: back Darrisaw, their their stud left tackle. Like they should 1791 01:30:42,880 --> 01:30:46,560 Speaker 2: have a much better offensive line. They've got wide receivers. 1792 01:30:47,120 --> 01:30:50,439 Speaker 2: Well after Week three, they've got a wide receiver room 1793 01:30:50,479 --> 01:30:54,840 Speaker 2: that's probably best in the division, ye arguably. 1794 01:30:54,439 --> 01:30:56,719 Speaker 1: Best in football. I mean they're just stacked. 1795 01:30:56,840 --> 01:30:59,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, so you have a lot of that stuff going 1796 01:30:59,479 --> 01:31:03,040 Speaker 2: you have. They brought in Jordan Mason from the forty 1797 01:31:03,120 --> 01:31:05,519 Speaker 2: nine ers to be that secondary. 1798 01:31:05,000 --> 01:31:08,559 Speaker 1: Back, and I think that's an underappreciated move. I like 1799 01:31:08,640 --> 01:31:11,520 Speaker 1: him a lot, and he's a good fit for Minnesota 1800 01:31:11,560 --> 01:31:13,559 Speaker 1: too for what they do. I think he's gonna be great. 1801 01:31:14,040 --> 01:31:16,200 Speaker 2: And then on the defensive side, I mean you've got 1802 01:31:16,240 --> 01:31:19,679 Speaker 2: that same type of defense. You've got Flores coming back. 1803 01:31:19,800 --> 01:31:23,599 Speaker 2: He's still toxic, you know, from sueing the league and all, 1804 01:31:25,240 --> 01:31:26,000 Speaker 2: but he's feisty. 1805 01:31:26,280 --> 01:31:29,280 Speaker 1: Yeah so, I mean he's gutsy, He's going out there, dudes, job, 1806 01:31:29,600 --> 01:31:32,160 Speaker 1: He's not worried about other things, not worried about the 1807 01:31:32,200 --> 01:31:34,679 Speaker 1: next job, because he only has this one right now. 1808 01:31:35,560 --> 01:31:39,679 Speaker 2: And that's so when you know, you compare the Vikings 1809 01:31:39,680 --> 01:31:44,920 Speaker 2: to the Packers, I mean the uncertainty is McCarthy like, 1810 01:31:45,560 --> 01:31:47,600 Speaker 2: can he step in and do that? Because it's the 1811 01:31:47,640 --> 01:31:50,160 Speaker 2: same way that I said, like, hey, the Packers defense 1812 01:31:51,200 --> 01:31:53,479 Speaker 2: wants to play with the lead. They want that offense 1813 01:31:53,520 --> 01:31:56,240 Speaker 2: to give them the lead. They want to send Parsons 1814 01:31:56,240 --> 01:31:58,160 Speaker 2: in there to bowl rush them. That's the same thing 1815 01:31:58,200 --> 01:32:01,560 Speaker 2: Flora's defense wants. So if you say, like, hey, the 1816 01:32:01,600 --> 01:32:03,679 Speaker 2: wheels are going to come off the biking season this year, 1817 01:32:03,840 --> 01:32:08,480 Speaker 2: it's because that offense isn't scoring regularly enough and Flores's 1818 01:32:08,560 --> 01:32:11,200 Speaker 2: defense is having to deal with more rushing and they're 1819 01:32:11,240 --> 01:32:14,120 Speaker 2: not able to take on the quarterback. They're not able 1820 01:32:14,160 --> 01:32:16,960 Speaker 2: to beat ballhawks and intercept and go for fumbles and 1821 01:32:16,960 --> 01:32:19,439 Speaker 2: do all the fun stuff that made him so watchable 1822 01:32:19,520 --> 01:32:22,840 Speaker 2: last year. Like that's how the season could go back. 1823 01:32:23,280 --> 01:32:25,960 Speaker 1: So normally I like to take the opposite approach of 1824 01:32:25,960 --> 01:32:28,120 Speaker 1: you and then like debate you because we just that's 1825 01:32:28,120 --> 01:32:30,720 Speaker 1: what we do, right, You and I were just ingrained me. 1826 01:32:30,760 --> 01:32:32,160 Speaker 1: But I'm going to agree with you and back you 1827 01:32:32,400 --> 01:32:37,120 Speaker 1: back up that with something the JJ McCarthy we're just talking. 1828 01:32:38,240 --> 01:32:41,960 Speaker 1: I forget what quarterback we were talking about, but I 1829 01:32:42,000 --> 01:32:45,120 Speaker 1: think there's value to quarterback sitting for a while and 1830 01:32:45,200 --> 01:32:47,200 Speaker 1: just watching the NFL happen around him, so we can 1831 01:32:47,280 --> 01:32:49,920 Speaker 1: learn and get and the game can slow down for him. Well, 1832 01:32:49,960 --> 01:32:52,160 Speaker 1: he unfortunately had that for him last season because of 1833 01:32:52,200 --> 01:32:56,840 Speaker 1: the injury, so he spent an entire season learning the 1834 01:32:56,920 --> 01:32:59,840 Speaker 1: game from the sideline knowing he's not going to be 1835 01:32:59,880 --> 01:33:01,760 Speaker 1: on the field. I think there's value to that. So 1836 01:33:01,800 --> 01:33:05,200 Speaker 1: I think that's gonna help. But here's why the whole 1837 01:33:05,200 --> 01:33:08,400 Speaker 1: season hinges on him. Last season or last season, the 1838 01:33:08,479 --> 01:33:11,400 Speaker 1: Vikings eighty percent of their scoring came through the air. 1839 01:33:12,000 --> 01:33:18,280 Speaker 1: If JJ McCarthy isn't the guy, yeah, they're screwed. So 1840 01:33:18,320 --> 01:33:20,120 Speaker 1: I'm backing up what you're saying. It all hinges on 1841 01:33:20,200 --> 01:33:23,960 Speaker 1: JJ McCarthy because that defense needs to be playing with 1842 01:33:24,000 --> 01:33:27,960 Speaker 1: the lead and that offense needs scoring to happen through 1843 01:33:28,000 --> 01:33:30,760 Speaker 1: the air, and it did last year. And if this 1844 01:33:30,800 --> 01:33:32,559 Speaker 1: guy isn't the guy, oh. 1845 01:33:32,400 --> 01:33:37,040 Speaker 2: My, they said JJ McCarthy is the first quarterback taken 1846 01:33:37,080 --> 01:33:38,880 Speaker 2: in the last in the first round the last twenty 1847 01:33:38,960 --> 01:33:42,880 Speaker 2: five years that did not take like a single snap. Yeah, 1848 01:33:42,920 --> 01:33:45,599 Speaker 2: I believe that in the regular season. I believe it 1849 01:33:46,080 --> 01:33:48,840 Speaker 2: so every other like even Mahomes. Mahomes sat for a year, 1850 01:33:48,880 --> 01:33:52,320 Speaker 2: but he still took snaps like you know. But yeah, 1851 01:33:52,400 --> 01:33:54,200 Speaker 2: not being able to practice, not being able to do that, 1852 01:33:54,280 --> 01:33:57,519 Speaker 2: and I know, I mean the puff piece writers, you 1853 01:33:57,560 --> 01:33:59,960 Speaker 2: know for ESPN al that I mean they've focused on Hey, 1854 01:34:00,360 --> 01:34:02,920 Speaker 2: McCarthy was doing notes for the QB room him and 1855 01:34:03,560 --> 01:34:07,360 Speaker 2: him and O'Connell still had their weekly meeting where he 1856 01:34:07,400 --> 01:34:09,479 Speaker 2: would get tested on the playbook that he would do this. 1857 01:34:09,680 --> 01:34:13,320 Speaker 2: You know, Darnald wore VR goggles for like certain like 1858 01:34:13,680 --> 01:34:16,600 Speaker 2: or VR on his helmet and McCarthy was able to 1859 01:34:16,640 --> 01:34:19,320 Speaker 2: see what he was seeing. But again, none of that 1860 01:34:20,280 --> 01:34:21,440 Speaker 2: is a substitution. 1861 01:34:21,640 --> 01:34:24,360 Speaker 1: There's not the real pressure being hit and slammed in 1862 01:34:24,400 --> 01:34:26,120 Speaker 1: the ground. But not real pressure. If you don't get 1863 01:34:26,120 --> 01:34:28,280 Speaker 1: the rid of the ball right now, you know the 1864 01:34:28,360 --> 01:34:32,000 Speaker 1: drive's over. I mean, yeah, nothing substitute's the real thing. 1865 01:34:32,080 --> 01:34:35,840 Speaker 1: But to be able to have the headset on, listen 1866 01:34:35,880 --> 01:34:40,400 Speaker 1: to everything happening, get the familiarity with that, to be 1867 01:34:40,520 --> 01:34:43,839 Speaker 1: in those meetings and learn because sometimes there's the pressure 1868 01:34:43,880 --> 01:34:47,240 Speaker 1: of all right, I have to work and I'm working 1869 01:34:47,280 --> 01:34:49,000 Speaker 1: and I'm the starting quarterback on any of the field, 1870 01:34:49,000 --> 01:34:52,200 Speaker 1: and I'm worried about eight different things. But when you're 1871 01:34:52,200 --> 01:34:56,920 Speaker 1: just sitting there learning, you know, like when you're an engineer, 1872 01:34:57,439 --> 01:34:59,479 Speaker 1: you're in class learning how to be an engineer. You're 1873 01:34:59,520 --> 01:35:02,639 Speaker 1: not out building buildings, you know. And so I think 1874 01:35:02,680 --> 01:35:05,080 Speaker 1: there's something to that, I think, and I hope he 1875 01:35:05,400 --> 01:35:07,960 Speaker 1: I hope it shows because I do think it worked 1876 01:35:07,960 --> 01:35:08,679 Speaker 1: for Carson Palmer. 1877 01:35:08,680 --> 01:35:09,040 Speaker 2: That's who it was. 1878 01:35:09,160 --> 01:35:11,680 Speaker 1: You were talking about Carson Palmer with the Bengals back in 1879 01:35:11,720 --> 01:35:13,759 Speaker 1: the day. They wouldn't let him step on the field 1880 01:35:13,760 --> 01:35:16,840 Speaker 1: that first year, and I thought that was awesome. He 1881 01:35:16,960 --> 01:35:19,320 Speaker 1: hated it, but then he had a great career. 1882 01:35:19,479 --> 01:35:19,920 Speaker 2: I don't know. 1883 01:35:20,000 --> 01:35:23,920 Speaker 1: I thought there was something to that. But anyway, the Vikings, 1884 01:35:24,680 --> 01:35:27,080 Speaker 1: I feel like they've got everything in front of them. 1885 01:35:27,280 --> 01:35:31,839 Speaker 1: It just falls on that quarterback position and see what happens. 1886 01:35:32,760 --> 01:35:35,960 Speaker 1: The Lions, they're the favorites to win the division, as 1887 01:35:36,000 --> 01:35:40,439 Speaker 1: they should be. They're in that window. Jared Goff's a stud. 1888 01:35:42,760 --> 01:35:44,000 Speaker 1: Do you not like Jared Goff. 1889 01:35:44,160 --> 01:35:45,719 Speaker 2: I'm not a huge Jared. 1890 01:35:45,479 --> 01:35:47,759 Speaker 1: Goff h but yeah, he's good for this system. 1891 01:35:47,880 --> 01:35:51,719 Speaker 2: YEP. I mean there was a reason that the Rams 1892 01:35:51,760 --> 01:35:53,080 Speaker 2: traded him out for. 1893 01:35:53,280 --> 01:35:56,639 Speaker 1: Stafford, but it has worked out. 1894 01:35:56,560 --> 01:35:58,760 Speaker 2: For the Lions. Yeah, so we'll see. I mean that 1895 01:35:58,880 --> 01:36:01,679 Speaker 2: the Lions can kind of keep that that offensive magic 1896 01:36:01,760 --> 01:36:04,000 Speaker 2: that they have with the previous. 1897 01:36:03,720 --> 01:36:04,840 Speaker 1: Because Evans at some point. 1898 01:36:04,920 --> 01:36:07,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, they lost both their coordinators, so they lost their OC, 1899 01:36:07,439 --> 01:36:09,320 Speaker 2: they lost their DC here this last year. 1900 01:36:09,600 --> 01:36:11,680 Speaker 1: So to me, that puts all the pressure on the 1901 01:36:11,720 --> 01:36:16,040 Speaker 1: head coach. Yes, at this point. Anybody who has a culture, 1902 01:36:16,080 --> 01:36:19,360 Speaker 1: anybody who has a system that's built strong enough, which 1903 01:36:19,400 --> 01:36:21,160 Speaker 1: every head coach says they have, right, that's why they 1904 01:36:21,200 --> 01:36:23,920 Speaker 1: get hired. Anybody who has it, you're gonna get guys. 1905 01:36:23,960 --> 01:36:26,439 Speaker 1: They're going to promoted out next one comes in. This 1906 01:36:26,560 --> 01:36:30,760 Speaker 1: is our system. If he's right and it works, they're 1907 01:36:30,760 --> 01:36:32,400 Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna be They're gonna win the division. They're 1908 01:36:32,400 --> 01:36:36,400 Speaker 1: gonna be Super Bowl contenders. Again. If he's wrong, this 1909 01:36:36,439 --> 01:36:37,479 Speaker 1: thing implodes fast. 1910 01:36:37,800 --> 01:36:38,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1911 01:36:38,600 --> 01:36:41,800 Speaker 1: So this is a big this is a big do 1912 01:36:41,920 --> 01:36:43,599 Speaker 1: or die season for the Lions. 1913 01:36:43,720 --> 01:36:48,840 Speaker 2: So and it's it's wild to think about the fact 1914 01:36:48,920 --> 01:36:52,880 Speaker 2: that so the Lions last year had the worst injury 1915 01:36:52,920 --> 01:36:57,120 Speaker 2: luck on defense. They lost more starters, more players last 1916 01:36:57,160 --> 01:36:59,160 Speaker 2: year on defense than any other team in the NFL, 1917 01:37:00,080 --> 01:37:04,040 Speaker 2: but their offense was one of the healthiest in the NFL. 1918 01:37:05,000 --> 01:37:07,400 Speaker 2: So they lost, like, I mean, David Montgomery was probably 1919 01:37:07,439 --> 01:37:10,599 Speaker 2: their biggest injury and he was the second string running back. 1920 01:37:11,320 --> 01:37:14,960 Speaker 2: So you would think that their defense would be healthier 1921 01:37:15,000 --> 01:37:16,960 Speaker 2: this season, that their defense should be able to hold 1922 01:37:17,000 --> 01:37:21,200 Speaker 2: it together. But you know, I mean, you would expect 1923 01:37:21,200 --> 01:37:23,479 Speaker 2: that offense is probably going to have more hurdles to 1924 01:37:23,520 --> 01:37:26,080 Speaker 2: go through with a new offensive coordinator, and can they 1925 01:37:26,240 --> 01:37:27,719 Speaker 2: keep keep that going? 1926 01:37:27,880 --> 01:37:32,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's interesting. I am actually when it's just 1927 01:37:33,800 --> 01:37:35,760 Speaker 1: looking at the talent, looking at the teams, and it's like, 1928 01:37:35,800 --> 01:37:37,479 Speaker 1: all right, Lions, Yeah, they're going to win that division. 1929 01:37:37,520 --> 01:37:39,639 Speaker 1: They're Super Bowl connenditors. This is it. But then when 1930 01:37:39,680 --> 01:37:41,760 Speaker 1: you like deep dive into it and it's like, oh, 1931 01:37:41,760 --> 01:37:44,080 Speaker 1: they lost both coordinators and that's a big red flag. 1932 01:37:44,120 --> 01:37:46,360 Speaker 1: Because the head coach is still new ish. We haven't 1933 01:37:46,400 --> 01:37:48,719 Speaker 1: seen this from him yet, we haven't seen the big 1934 01:37:48,720 --> 01:37:52,240 Speaker 1: flip of his assistant. So yeah, this is exciting. 1935 01:37:52,479 --> 01:37:55,519 Speaker 2: And we've mentioned earlier in this episode. You know, forty 1936 01:37:55,600 --> 01:37:58,960 Speaker 2: nine ers easiest schedule, right, they're playing the last place schedule, 1937 01:37:59,720 --> 01:38:02,400 Speaker 2: So the Lions have the toughest schedule in the NFL. 1938 01:38:02,479 --> 01:38:03,040 Speaker 1: Makes sense. 1939 01:38:03,240 --> 01:38:05,320 Speaker 2: So, I mean, in addition to having two games each 1940 01:38:05,320 --> 01:38:07,639 Speaker 2: against the Packers, Vikings, and Bears in their own division, 1941 01:38:08,200 --> 01:38:11,360 Speaker 2: they've got the Eagles, they've got the Rams, they've got 1942 01:38:11,360 --> 01:38:14,800 Speaker 2: the Bucks. They play the AFC North, so they've got 1943 01:38:14,840 --> 01:38:21,559 Speaker 2: the Ravens, the Bengals, the Steelers. They play the East, 1944 01:38:21,560 --> 01:38:24,840 Speaker 2: so they'll also have Commanders and Cowboys in there, like 1945 01:38:25,160 --> 01:38:28,000 Speaker 2: they've got a full dance card. 1946 01:38:28,120 --> 01:38:30,400 Speaker 1: So hear me out? Are the Lions A team then 1947 01:38:31,080 --> 01:38:35,439 Speaker 1: makes the playoffs but as a wild card, and Vikings 1948 01:38:35,680 --> 01:38:36,320 Speaker 1: jump ahead? 1949 01:38:36,560 --> 01:38:38,639 Speaker 2: I do think, I mean, so the Vikings became they 1950 01:38:38,640 --> 01:38:41,840 Speaker 2: made history for having the most wins fourteen win team 1951 01:38:41,880 --> 01:38:46,719 Speaker 2: to be wild card. I would say, I don't see 1952 01:38:46,760 --> 01:38:50,519 Speaker 2: any team in the NFC North winning more than twelve games. 1953 01:38:50,600 --> 01:38:53,200 Speaker 2: I think twelve's probably like the top that any of 1954 01:38:53,240 --> 01:38:56,160 Speaker 2: these ken can go. But yeah, I think that it's 1955 01:38:56,360 --> 01:38:58,479 Speaker 2: within the realm of possibility that you could have an 1956 01:38:58,479 --> 01:38:59,760 Speaker 2: eleven win team. When this. 1957 01:39:04,160 --> 01:39:07,840 Speaker 1: All right, so we've got Lions winning the North, Falcons 1958 01:39:07,920 --> 01:39:12,080 Speaker 1: winning the South, Rams winning the West, and the Eagles 1959 01:39:12,080 --> 01:39:17,280 Speaker 1: winning the East. Not talking wild cards, would you say 1960 01:39:17,920 --> 01:39:20,320 Speaker 1: the winner out of the NFC is probably gonna be 1961 01:39:20,439 --> 01:39:22,360 Speaker 1: a division winner? Do you think a wild card can 1962 01:39:22,400 --> 01:39:24,040 Speaker 1: take that right now, if you're looking at it. 1963 01:39:24,479 --> 01:39:27,519 Speaker 2: I mean, it would be tough like not to take 1964 01:39:27,560 --> 01:39:31,480 Speaker 2: the chalk pick of the Eagles just because they've got 1965 01:39:32,080 --> 01:39:35,360 Speaker 2: they've got the least amount of unknowns, like I think. 1966 01:39:35,479 --> 01:39:38,040 Speaker 2: I mean, I think, yeah, the winner of the Lions 1967 01:39:38,040 --> 01:39:40,080 Speaker 2: packers and vikings, Like if one of those teams comes 1968 01:39:40,160 --> 01:39:42,719 Speaker 2: up head and shoulders above that rest of that division, 1969 01:39:42,720 --> 01:39:44,960 Speaker 2: I mean think you could make the argument that, hey, 1970 01:39:44,960 --> 01:39:49,719 Speaker 2: they'll be NFC champion contenders. But all of those teams 1971 01:39:49,760 --> 01:39:52,479 Speaker 2: I think have bigger question marks than the Eagles. 1972 01:39:54,479 --> 01:39:57,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, the all the schedule things you just brought up, 1973 01:39:57,360 --> 01:40:01,720 Speaker 1: and then remembering the coordinator things, that's enough for me 1974 01:40:02,600 --> 01:40:06,800 Speaker 1: to not say the Lions are favorite. It's the got 1975 01:40:06,880 --> 01:40:09,160 Speaker 1: I mean the Eagles obviously right now look like. 1976 01:40:10,600 --> 01:40:12,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think anybody wants to see the Eagles 1977 01:40:12,960 --> 01:40:17,519 Speaker 2: one seed and have to go to Philadelphia January. I 1978 01:40:17,560 --> 01:40:20,439 Speaker 2: think that's a Yeah, it looks tough. 1979 01:40:20,640 --> 01:40:23,519 Speaker 1: It's gonna be fun. Remember, not everybody that made it 1980 01:40:23,560 --> 01:40:25,599 Speaker 1: last year makes the playoffs this year. It's just it's 1981 01:40:25,640 --> 01:40:28,280 Speaker 1: just how it always works. So it's a lot of 1982 01:40:28,280 --> 01:40:30,000 Speaker 1: these teams that were looking at and it's like, how 1983 01:40:30,000 --> 01:40:32,240 Speaker 1: could they possibly lose? They're not going to make the playoffs, 1984 01:40:32,280 --> 01:40:34,559 Speaker 1: which is to me that's what makes the NFL fun 1985 01:40:35,479 --> 01:40:37,160 Speaker 1: but and frustrating at the same time. 1986 01:40:37,200 --> 01:40:40,800 Speaker 2: But yeah, and yeah, that's what kind of again, those 1987 01:40:40,800 --> 01:40:44,760 Speaker 2: schedule inconsistencies from year to year. Yeah, Like I don't 1988 01:40:44,800 --> 01:40:46,840 Speaker 2: think I can't talk about that enough, just being an 1989 01:40:46,920 --> 01:40:50,200 Speaker 2: NFC fan of the fact that that whole, the whole 1990 01:40:50,520 --> 01:40:55,280 Speaker 2: division was buoyed by the NFC West and AFC South, 1991 01:40:55,320 --> 01:40:58,800 Speaker 2: and the fact that both the Lions and Vikings went 1992 01:40:58,880 --> 01:41:01,760 Speaker 2: seven and one against those those you know eight teams 1993 01:41:01,800 --> 01:41:05,840 Speaker 2: like that led to the great records, and you know, 1994 01:41:05,920 --> 01:41:08,200 Speaker 2: Commander's team, how are they going to look playing a 1995 01:41:08,240 --> 01:41:14,040 Speaker 2: second place schedule versus a last place schedule. It's interesting. 1996 01:41:15,760 --> 01:41:19,439 Speaker 1: It's football, baby, and week one we've got this week, 1997 01:41:19,479 --> 01:41:25,759 Speaker 1: We've got Eagles, Cowboys on Thursday night, Chargers Chiefs on Friday, 1998 01:41:25,800 --> 01:41:28,200 Speaker 1: before that full slate on Sunday, and I'm excited. 1999 01:41:28,960 --> 01:41:30,880 Speaker 2: I gotta wait. I gotta wait till Monday night though, 2000 01:41:30,880 --> 01:41:34,000 Speaker 2: to see the Vikings Vikings. That's gonna be a. 2001 01:41:35,479 --> 01:41:38,080 Speaker 1: Don't let the Bears, don't don't let the Bears start. 2002 01:41:38,120 --> 01:41:43,040 Speaker 2: Want to know, I've been on the record of saying 2003 01:41:43,080 --> 01:41:47,320 Speaker 2: that nothing like nothing will destroy my buying on the 2004 01:41:47,320 --> 01:41:50,240 Speaker 2: season more than if the Vikings look that bad against 2005 01:41:50,280 --> 01:41:51,000 Speaker 2: the Bears is. 2006 01:41:51,520 --> 01:41:55,120 Speaker 1: Being played Chicago. Don't lose the Bears week one. 2007 01:41:56,000 --> 01:42:00,120 Speaker 2: So it's like that that's the one thing that's going 2008 01:42:00,200 --> 01:42:03,519 Speaker 2: to be very, very strange. Some huge Vikings fan love Sundays. 2009 01:42:04,080 --> 01:42:08,160 Speaker 2: I like them playing at that noon slot. Yep So, 2010 01:42:08,320 --> 01:42:15,080 Speaker 2: Vikings Week one, Monday night football, Vikings Week two, Sunday 2011 01:42:15,160 --> 01:42:20,200 Speaker 2: night football against the Falcons. Week three, they'll host the 2012 01:42:20,240 --> 01:42:23,720 Speaker 2: Bengals at noon, but then they play their back to 2013 01:42:23,800 --> 01:42:27,760 Speaker 2: back there Ireland and London games. So for weeks four 2014 01:42:27,800 --> 01:42:30,280 Speaker 2: and five they'll be playing at nine thirty in the morning. 2015 01:42:30,680 --> 01:42:31,679 Speaker 1: That's a lot of change. 2016 01:42:32,080 --> 01:42:33,200 Speaker 2: And then they have a bye week. 2017 01:42:33,240 --> 01:42:36,400 Speaker 1: And then sometimes like people will say, like all of 2018 01:42:36,200 --> 01:42:40,519 Speaker 1: the fluctuation and routine will be tough for a rookie 2019 01:42:40,760 --> 01:42:44,280 Speaker 1: ish quarterback, right, but that might be good. He's constantly 2020 01:42:44,360 --> 01:42:46,960 Speaker 1: having to like just focus and like that might be 2021 01:42:47,000 --> 01:42:49,479 Speaker 1: actually the best way to start a season. Don't get 2022 01:42:49,479 --> 01:42:51,439 Speaker 1: caught routine and then it changes. Yeah what I it 2023 01:42:51,560 --> 01:42:54,479 Speaker 1: just always changes. That's your routine now. But that's actually 2024 01:42:54,479 --> 01:42:55,519 Speaker 1: not bad that bad thing. 2025 01:42:56,280 --> 01:42:57,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is where I can talk myself out of 2026 01:42:57,880 --> 01:42:59,880 Speaker 2: the Vikings though, because I'm like that that's a that's 2027 01:42:59,880 --> 01:43:02,360 Speaker 2: a that's a tough schedule, you know at the beginning, 2028 01:43:02,360 --> 01:43:04,559 Speaker 2: but that's probably their easiest stretch because when they come back, 2029 01:43:04,640 --> 01:43:07,800 Speaker 2: they have the Eagles and Ravens back to back and 2030 01:43:07,840 --> 01:43:11,000 Speaker 2: then the Lions and the Packers, and it's just like 2031 01:43:11,040 --> 01:43:14,000 Speaker 2: there's like a four weeks from hell in there. So 2032 01:43:14,040 --> 01:43:16,080 Speaker 2: it's just like if you guys start two and three 2033 01:43:16,240 --> 01:43:20,719 Speaker 2: or god forbid one and four, like it's it's gonna 2034 01:43:20,720 --> 01:43:24,320 Speaker 2: be a long process to get it righted. 2035 01:43:24,680 --> 01:43:30,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, well it all starts this week. Eric, Thanks for 2036 01:43:30,560 --> 01:43:31,160 Speaker 1: your breakdown. 2037 01:43:31,960 --> 01:43:32,760 Speaker 2: Thanks for having me. 2038 01:43:32,840 --> 01:43:36,839 Speaker 1: We did it.
