Speaker 1: NFL Game Deview is a production of the NFL in
Speaker 1: partnership with iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2: Everybody Welcome to game debut, delivered by Little Caesars, the
Speaker 2: official pizza up Super Bowl fifty eight. Patrick claiboun here
Speaker 2: with Greg Rose, Withal and Cynthia Freeland. As we wrapped
Speaker 2: up the regular season picks and Greg won the contest.
Speaker 2: But it's a whole new season, okay, so nets look
Speaker 2: at the standings, disregard the lesson.
Speaker 3: Okay, I like because we.
Speaker 2: Got dual crowns Cynthia and Greg bothfore and Tula.
Speaker 4: We're actually missing the real winner. Who is your son?
Speaker 4: That's Walker went one to Oh.
Speaker 3: Jess, Walker is one and O I would not have
Speaker 3: picked the Texans with Adhams. Here is the reason.
Speaker 4: I'm up winner and happy belated again Walker.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Walker made it.
Speaker 2: Congratulations because you're Houston Texans and the Ravens kick off
Speaker 2: the divisional round. These teams have met way back in
Speaker 2: week won the first ever game for the number two
Speaker 2: overall pick. This is his first career pass. He took
Speaker 2: it to him. Well, if you don't support yourself, who will?
Speaker 3: And this is the game I watched in the very
Speaker 3: first window, my number one draft pick of games and
Speaker 3: now here it is the divisional round right there.
Speaker 2: You go, there it is, and you'll always remember CJ.
Speaker 2: Shroud's first completion. Also playing in his first game was
Speaker 2: Zay Flowers, the twenty second overall pickout of where.
Speaker 4: Cynthia Boston College.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he got twenty one yards there.
Speaker 2: He's also first game for Todd Munkin, who saved me
Speaker 2: because you know, I like to change at that point.
Speaker 5: JK. Dobbins fourth year out of Ohio State. So glad
Speaker 5: to have JK. Dobbins back.
Speaker 2: It did not last long because on this catch in
Speaker 2: the red zone he tore his achilles was out. For
Speaker 2: the remainder of the season. It would be Justice Hill
Speaker 2: and Gus Edwards. For the rest of the year. It
Speaker 2: was Justice Hill on the very next play got a
Speaker 2: two yard touchdown. The Ravens led fifteen to six after
Speaker 2: getting a two point attempt fourth quarter, Now Texans trailing
Speaker 2: twenty two to nine.
Speaker 5: CJ.
Speaker 2: Stroud looking for a promising first game comeback win. It
Speaker 2: did not work because David Ojabo we didn't see a
Speaker 2: lot of the rest of the season, strip sacked him.
Speaker 2: Michael Pierce recovered it a Jabo.
Speaker 5: Coming off that Achilles tear CJ.
Speaker 2: Strout finished with twenty three of thirty eight passing two
Speaker 2: hundred and nine.
Speaker 3: Yards had some times though.
Speaker 5: Yeah, the rest of US rookie season was underwhelming. Just kidding.
Speaker 2: It was one of the best that we've ever seen.
Speaker 2: The Texans in Ravens square off Saturday afternoon in Baltimore.
Speaker 2: Raven's looking to get back to the AFC Championship for
Speaker 2: the first time since twenty twelve.
Speaker 5: Do they do it? Grick?
Speaker 3: I think they do. I'm not going with the Texans again,
Speaker 3: even though they did me well. I don't even have
Speaker 3: them staying within nine and a half. I have the
Speaker 3: Ravens winning twenty eight to seventeen. I think the mismatch
Speaker 3: is when Lamar Jackson and this Ravens offense has the ball.
Speaker 3: I think you need to be a special defense right
Speaker 3: now to stop them. I don't think the Texans are there,
Speaker 3: and it's because of the way Lamar finished the season.
Speaker 3: All these highlights were seeing weeks fifteen to seventeen. It's
Speaker 3: when the offense fully came together. If you take away
Speaker 3: the short pass, he'll go along. You take away the
Speaker 3: deep stuff, he can go over the middle now more
Speaker 3: than he did in the past. Even and you've got likely,
Speaker 3: You've got Justice Hill. I know Mark Andrews isn't there.
Speaker 3: You have Odell Beckham in the red zone, especially when
Speaker 3: you get near the goal line. They have so many
Speaker 3: different answers. They're still one of the most effective running
Speaker 3: teams in the league. I haven't even gotten to Lamar
Speaker 3: Jackson running the ball himself. So whether it's in structure
Speaker 3: or out of rhythm, they always find answers. And I
Speaker 3: think the Texans defense is very good. I don't think
Speaker 3: they can mix it up enough for four quarters to
Speaker 3: keep this Ravens offense down.
Speaker 4: Well, I'm going to thread the news. Oh go for it,
Speaker 4: a nice little here we go. Twenty six to nineteen.
Speaker 4: Is my score? Just a one touchdown win for the Ravens.
Speaker 4: I want to point out something I saw in this
Speaker 4: last week's matchup for CJ. Stroud, because we remember the Browns defense,
Speaker 4: especially their passing defense, in many metrics, were the very
Speaker 4: very best in football. And I was watching and you
Speaker 4: know how much separation all of the receivers had lots
Speaker 4: a lot, like a whole bunch. If you're gonna man
Speaker 4: me up I'm just gonna have Nico Collins run across
Speaker 4: the back of the formation and you know, tip it
Speaker 4: off to my quarterback, who, by the way, we know
Speaker 4: he's accurate. We've been talking about that since Ohio State,
Speaker 4: ladies and gentlemen. So if you're talking about an opportunity
Speaker 4: here to take advantage of the fact that Marlon Humphrey
Speaker 4: isn't playing, there are down some pieces, you know, in
Speaker 4: that secondary. I think this is where you'll see the
Speaker 4: Texans keep it close. CJ. Stroud, He's gonna be your
Speaker 4: O Roy and then of course Lamari you'r MVP. So
Speaker 4: I think a nice seven point win seems about right.
Speaker 5: Nine points feels overly optimistic to me. Surprise, surprise, I'm
Speaker 5: taking the Baltimore Ravens. Yeah.
Speaker 2: No, I think the defense makes place, especially justin Mattabek
Speaker 2: coming through making plays in the game. But again, as
Speaker 2: Greg mentioned, the Houston Texans run defense is not what
Speaker 2: the Texans would have liked to have had, and I
Speaker 2: think that stresses things. So the point that the Ravens
Speaker 2: receivers will make plays, and it's something that's been building
Speaker 2: up for years where they've needed more out of this
Speaker 2: group and they get Zay Flowers in the draft, Odell
Speaker 2: Beckham Junior comes through Nelson haigilar I.
Speaker 5: Can make plays as well.
Speaker 2: The Texans are going to have to devote so much
Speaker 2: attention to Lamar and the run game.
Speaker 5: Isaiah likely. I think that there will be space.
Speaker 2: We saw, especially in those Browns highlights all the free
Speaker 2: releases for the Houston Texans receivers. I think Baltimore's receivers
Speaker 2: have a lot of opportunity and this group can take
Speaker 2: advantage of that. So we're all on the Baltimore Ravens
Speaker 2: meme away. But let's play this guy or that guy
Speaker 2: in this round here.
Speaker 5: Greg c J.
Speaker 2: Strout tossed three touchdowns last week. Lamar threw five the
Speaker 2: last time we saw him. Which quarterback is more likely
Speaker 2: to throw multiple passing touchdowns, Lamar or c J.
Speaker 3: Stree? Well, you know, I gotta go with Lamar Jackson,
Speaker 3: the MVP of the league the season. We've waited forever
Speaker 3: from him, because it doesn't have to just be about
Speaker 3: their running game. It's all those weapons that I talked about,
Speaker 3: and I think the Texans run defense, which has been
Speaker 3: really good in parts of this season, is going to
Speaker 3: be so focused on stopping him, that there will be
Speaker 3: available receivers. Rashad Bateman quietly had his best game of
Speaker 3: the season in Week seventeen before they started resting guys,
Speaker 3: and again, it's more options, they're gonna score more points.
Speaker 3: You think about this team as a defensive team, but
Speaker 3: one of the best offense in the league, one of
Speaker 3: the best red zone teams in the league, despite having
Speaker 3: sixty eight trips to the red zone. They're there all
Speaker 3: the time and they capitalize, all.
Speaker 2: Right, Sothia, Nico Collins and Zay Flowers both lead their
Speaker 2: teams and receiving. Who's more likely to have over five
Speaker 2: catches on Saturday?
Speaker 4: To me, this is Nico Collins. Not because I'm not
Speaker 4: liking Zay Flowers or something crazy like that, but there's
Speaker 4: just too many options there. Isaiah likely there, Odell Beckham
Speaker 4: Junior is there. There's just different ways that they can
Speaker 4: be while Nico Collins seems to be the primary focus
Speaker 4: for CJ. Stroud in this offense. So I like the
Speaker 4: opportunity here for both of them to have five, but
Speaker 4: I think the more likely one to have over five
Speaker 4: is going to be Nico Collins.
Speaker 5: All right, I'll take the last one.
Speaker 2: Who's more likely to have over thirty five receiving yards,
Speaker 2: Dalton Schultz or Odell Beckham Junior. I will take Odell
Speaker 2: here because I think they're both getting thirty five yards,
Speaker 2: especially with the attention that's going to go to Ni
Speaker 2: Collins for Houston. But I think the attention to the
Speaker 2: Ravens run game leaves Houston vulnerable.
Speaker 5: In the run pass option game. We see Odell.
Speaker 2: I think he gets you sixty yards, so thirty five
Speaker 2: should not be a problem.
Speaker 5: From OBJ coming up. Beating the Cowboys.
Speaker 2: In Dallas has Jordan Love firmly in Aaron Rodgers footprints.
Speaker 2: But can he do something twelve never could keep the
Speaker 2: forty nine Ers in the playoffs.
Speaker 5: Our picks for that game in the NFC coming up
Speaker 5: next week.
Speaker 3: I'm watching and he's getting annoyed at this compared.
Speaker 6: He's like, I'm gonna say something crazy.
Speaker 5: It's time for pizza.
Speaker 2: Pizza pregame predictions delivered by Little Caesars, the Official Pizza
Speaker 2: Super Bowl. Fifty eight Packers and forty nine Ers meeting
Speaker 2: for the tenth time in the playoffs. San Francisco has
Speaker 2: won four in a row, but Jordan Love and the
Speaker 2: Packers are on a roll.
Speaker 5: What happens this week.
Speaker 3: I think the role continues for the offense, but the
Speaker 3: defense turns back into the Joe Berry defense and the
Speaker 3: forty nine ers score enough to win thirty three to
Speaker 3: twenty nine. So I'm threading that needl way under nine points.
Speaker 3: But the reason the offense can get it done for
Speaker 3: San Francisco not just CMC, but also the passing game
Speaker 3: with Brandon Ayuk. No matter how good you think Brandon
Speaker 3: Ayuk is, he's better. He is just a ridiculous receiver,
Speaker 3: maybe the most efficient receiver in the league. Second in
Speaker 3: the league in completions over ten yards, in terms of yardage,
Speaker 3: in terms of efficiency. Basically, he's the second best deep
Speaker 3: receiver in the league to Tyreek Hill. Like this combination
Speaker 3: between him and Purty are excellent. The last three years,
Speaker 3: he's eighth in the league in yards over expected after
Speaker 3: the catch. So he can do it at the catch point,
Speaker 3: you can do it after the catch. He can get open.
Speaker 3: He doesn't need to get one hundred and seventy yards
Speaker 3: every week because he's got Debo, he's got Kittle. But
Speaker 3: he is that good. He is as good as valuable
Speaker 3: as those two guys and I have a feeling this
Speaker 3: week against a thin Packers secondary, he gets it done.
Speaker 3: I love that.
Speaker 4: I actually think brand Yok's really good. So I'm just
Speaker 4: trying to decide how good I think he is now.
Speaker 4: But whatever better better than even better than that? Okay, Well,
Speaker 4: I have twenty seven to twenty one in this matchup
Speaker 4: for San Francisco, so I too am threading the needle here.
Speaker 4: But I want to talk about how Jordan Love has
Speaker 4: accomplished what he's done. He's been well protected. You look
Speaker 4: against what happened when teams have flitzed him, which obviously
Speaker 4: the Niners they rush for a lot. They don't blitz
Speaker 4: a ton, however, But when he has face the blitz,
Speaker 4: what's he done? Since Week nine? Oh, just had the
Speaker 4: most passing yards in the league and forty two if
Speaker 4: you're keeping track at home. That does include last week
Speaker 4: as well. But I think that all of the different
Speaker 4: ways that San Francisco can try to pressure you, I
Speaker 4: do know that coach Lafleur has an answer for many
Speaker 4: of them. That will he be able to keep that
Speaker 4: going for the entire game? I don't think so. I
Speaker 4: kind of agree with you. I think it's actually the Packers'
Speaker 4: defense that lets them down. But I want to give
Speaker 4: some love to Jordan Love because that was really incredible.
Speaker 4: And also the coach working with the O line, working
Speaker 4: with the run game, where all these things working together
Speaker 4: is really amazing. And the fact that they had three
Speaker 4: quarterbacks in a row that now, look, this guy just
Speaker 4: seems like it's a cheat code. Are you cheating? What's
Speaker 4: going on?
Speaker 2: I also have d forty nine Ers winning twenty four
Speaker 2: to nineteen, but.
Speaker 5: I want to distribute some love as well, and not
Speaker 5: just to the quarterback.
Speaker 2: But I think the reason that they've been on this run,
Speaker 2: it's Aaron Jones.
Speaker 5: Aaron Jones since.
Speaker 2: Week sixteen has had five hundred and thirty seven rushing
Speaker 2: yards for his career. He's over one hundred and twenty
Speaker 2: five yards from scrimmage against the forty nine ers. And
Speaker 2: this comes on the heels of two years of people saying, hey, well,
Speaker 2: you know it's time to get rid of Aaron Jones.
Speaker 2: We can't invest in the running back position. He's one
Speaker 2: of the best players on the team. We saw him
Speaker 2: make an incredible blitz pick up against Micah Parsons for
Speaker 2: a touchdown. What more do you want from Aaron Jones,
Speaker 2: maybe he could play some defense.
Speaker 5: Meme away meame away.
Speaker 2: We are all on the San Francisco forty nine Ers,
Speaker 2: but again both and I chose Packers players to highlight.
Speaker 5: We think the Packers are.
Speaker 2: Good, we just don't think they're better than the Niners
Speaker 2: in Santa Clara. So not only do we all like
Speaker 2: the Niners this week, but Cyndia's model has them as
Speaker 2: big time favorite. Rude almost fifty percent to win the
Speaker 2: NFC Cynthia.
Speaker 4: Forty nine Ers forty nine percent. Oh, conspiracy theorists, you
Speaker 4: can better gather around. This discrepancy between number one and
Speaker 4: number two is the largest that I've done since I've
Speaker 4: been coding in this way, which is like ten seasons now.
Speaker 4: So you're welcome the Cowboys fans. I'm sorry you gave
Speaker 4: all your love to the Niners.
Speaker 5: It all works out in the end. Somebody's going to
Speaker 5: be one hundred percent eventually.
Speaker 2: Let's talk more or less exactly player props for the
Speaker 2: Packers and forty nine Ers. Jordan Love had three passing
Speaker 2: touchdowns against the Cowboys last week.
Speaker 5: We'll we have more or less than one and a
Speaker 5: half this week.
Speaker 3: More uh sneaky fact about this forty nine Ers defense.
Speaker 3: It's not as good as you remember. It's still very good,
Speaker 3: but they can get got sometimes. And one of the
Speaker 3: things I like about this match of four, Jordan Love
Speaker 3: is tar various words, very often takes away the opposing
Speaker 3: team's best receiver. But there's so many best receivers on
Speaker 3: the Packers that there's room for all the secondary guys
Speaker 3: to step up. And Jordan Love is playing like a
Speaker 3: top five quarterback right now. I'd take them over just
Speaker 3: about anyone in terms of the level he's at, including
Speaker 3: the opposition. Brock Purty, come at me, brock Purty supporters,
Speaker 3: I think he's busy.
Speaker 2: Frock's a little busy today, all right, He'll be busy
Speaker 2: handing the ball off to Christian McCaffrey. Will see himc
Speaker 2: have one hundred and twenty six yards from scrimmage.
Speaker 4: The pillow says more, and so does the math. Why
Speaker 4: because if you look at the most vulnerable part of
Speaker 4: this Packers defense since week thirteen, they've allowed nine point
Speaker 4: three percent of passes to the middle third of the
Speaker 4: field to be completed over expected. That's the largest in
Speaker 4: the NFL over that time span. That is where Christian
Speaker 4: McCaffrey catches those passes and also where he likes to
Speaker 4: run the football, So it just doesn't bode well for
Speaker 4: that area of the defense.
Speaker 3: I feel like rest was in important for this team, especially,
Speaker 3: but more than anyone. Christian McCaffrey was a little banged up,
Speaker 3: and I just if he.
Speaker 4: Was liked percent of snaps right.
Speaker 3: If he was this good, you know, week after week
Speaker 3: after week with two weeks of rest, he might go
Speaker 3: two hundred and twenty six yards.
Speaker 2: One thing that Cynthia loves to say is sometimes Kyle
Speaker 2: Shanahan will say some necessarily remember before the season, it
Speaker 2: was like, hey, you know, forty nine ers may not
Speaker 2: give the ball. He led the league carries and rushing.
Speaker 2: Did seem see I'll take Deebo Samuel. Will he have
Speaker 2: more or less than fifty eight receiving yards against the Packers.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say Deebo has mode more despite the fact
Speaker 2: that he's played the.
Speaker 5: Packers in January twice in his career.
Speaker 2: He's never had more than fifty eight receiving yards, but
Speaker 2: he also ran for forty yards a game in those
Speaker 2: two wins. This time, he has a better quarterback and
Speaker 2: again the best running back in the NFL now, I
Speaker 2: think Christian McCaffrey gets some of those carries, more opportunity
Speaker 2: for Debo in the passing game, and more on brock Perty's.
Speaker 5: Passing totals coming up later on in the show.
Speaker 2: Coming up, the Lions haven't made the NFC Championship.
Speaker 5: It's always thirty year.
Speaker 3: Now it's a new new stat that they haven't done.
Speaker 3: And I guess that's what happened.
Speaker 5: Well, Jared Goff have Cynthia in Detroit.
Speaker 2: Fans popping bottles on Sunday are picks for Bucks Lions right.
Speaker 5: After this break.
Speaker 2: Back on game deview before this playoff matchup in Week six,
Speaker 2: Let's go back Jared Goff against Baker Mayfield. The Bucks
Speaker 2: were coming off there by. They were leading the NFC
Speaker 2: South in the first quarter, first and ten at their
Speaker 2: own eight and Mayfield's passes tipped by Isaiah bugs Will
Speaker 2: Harris picks it off. They party in the end zone.
Speaker 2: They kick a field goal. After that they lead three
Speaker 2: to nothing. Second quarter, game tied at three. Jared Goff
Speaker 2: looking to David Montgomery on a screen pass.
Speaker 5: He gets nineteen yards.
Speaker 2: Problem is Shack Barrett lands directly on top of him.
Speaker 2: He would stay down after the play. There was no Jamier.
Speaker 5: Gibbs, he was out that day. He was looking on.
Speaker 2: So it would have to be Craig Reynolds for the
Speaker 2: remainder because Montgomery would not return with a rib injury.
Speaker 2: Seven plays later, Jared Goff hits Aman Ross, Saint Brown
Speaker 2: evades tacklers, and we mentioned Craig Reynolds. He blocks like
Speaker 2: three people there and Saint Brown gets in the end zone.
Speaker 2: He finished that play with a touchdown, finished the game
Speaker 2: with twelve catches, a career high for him. Another look
Speaker 2: at Craig Reynolds taking out the entire Bucks team.
Speaker 5: The Lions led ten to three after that third quarter,
Speaker 5: now lines up ten to six. Third and ten, Todd Bowles.
Speaker 2: Blitzes Jared Goff's Like I Got You hits Jamison Williams for.
Speaker 5: The forty five yard touchdown.
Speaker 2: After Jamo finally finds the ball, He's like, where is it?
Speaker 5: What it is?
Speaker 4: His mouthguard isn't it either?
Speaker 3: The whole idea of like you Gotta Blitz Jared Goff
Speaker 3: make him feel uncomfortable. His numbers against the Blitz this
Speaker 3: season are fantastic. Blitz at your own peril. He got
Speaker 3: God Bowls.
Speaker 2: He has three fifty three and two touchdowns, leading us
Speaker 2: to winning moves presented by Into It Turbo Attacks. The
Speaker 2: Bucks in the Lines meet again Sunday with a trip
Speaker 2: to the NFC Championship On the line, Deep Breath Cynthia
Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield against Golf, a battle of former number one
Speaker 2: overall picks.
Speaker 5: Does your team come out.
Speaker 4: On top by four points twenty six twenty two? That's
Speaker 4: what the math says. I'm very scared. Why because when
Speaker 4: I went back and watched the Bucks game from last week,
Speaker 4: I saw Yack, I saw lots of Yak. I saw
Speaker 4: Mike Evans with Yak. I saw Kate aught and with you.
Speaker 4: I saw a lot of yards after the catch, which
Speaker 4: is an area that the Lions need to shore up.
Speaker 4: Dj CJ please come to my rescue. I'm very worried
Speaker 4: about some of these one on one matchups. And by
Speaker 4: the way that you went to we're going back to
Speaker 4: conspiracy theories. The tight end coach from the Bucks is
Speaker 4: from Okamus, Michigan. It scares me very.
Speaker 3: Much, ridiculous.
Speaker 4: I'm telling you none of that stuff matters, but the math. Listen,
Speaker 4: I'll go with the math on here. Four points. I'm
Speaker 4: gonna be there.
Speaker 3: I'm very Kada and highlights. This is the first Divisional
Speaker 3: round game in thirty years. You're gonna be there and
Speaker 3: we're watching Kada and highlights during the Lions win prediction.
Speaker 3: Come on, yes, this is ridiculous. If you're not gonna
Speaker 3: talk about the Lions, I'm gonna talk about Lions, and
Speaker 3: I'm gonna have them win by more than four and
Speaker 3: a half points. There were six and a half points,
Speaker 3: ten mint. I blew it and you should be crowing.
Speaker 3: You had prime number named Dan and now you.
Speaker 4: Gotta get a dog named Dan.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you promised you would name your second dog Dan.
Speaker 4: I know Hel's on board too.
Speaker 3: I have more faith in them now though, because this
Speaker 3: is the matchup you want. I think points are going
Speaker 3: to be a plenty, and I think the Lions defense
Speaker 3: will be sneaky good, good enough in this matchup. So
Speaker 3: Ali McNeil returned from injury a couple of weeks ago.
Speaker 3: He's made a difference. Garter Johnson you mentioned, is out there.
Speaker 3: He's made a difference. They actually activated James Houston for
Speaker 3: this matchup. And you have a really good defensive coordinator
Speaker 3: in Aaron Glenn who I think get even better in
Speaker 3: the playoffs. They threw some things at the Rams that yes,
Speaker 3: they ended up moving the ball well, but they could
Speaker 3: not get it done in the red zone. And Baker Mayfield,
Speaker 3: we're seeing some of his struggles from Week six. He's
Speaker 3: had about five or six games this year where he's
Speaker 3: been fantastic. He's also had five or six games this
Speaker 3: year where he's not been good at all, where he's
Speaker 3: been the old Baker Mayfield. I promise I watched those games.
Speaker 3: One of them was against the Lions. That's gonna happen again, Cynthia.
Speaker 4: All I have to say is keep your grubby paws
Speaker 4: off my coordinators. Whoa Ben stay, Aaron stay. I'll get
Speaker 4: them marketing deals. I'll tell Little Caesars that they need
Speaker 4: to be in commercials.
Speaker 3: I mean, she's come on, scared, she's getting possessive of
Speaker 3: It's a lot right now.
Speaker 4: Grubby paws off my coordinator.
Speaker 2: It's passion and when it means something, you know you
Speaker 2: try hard. And that's why some people think CJ. Gardner
Speaker 2: Johnson is going to make Baker Mayfield trying hard. And
Speaker 2: what I think was actually a compliment for Baker because
Speaker 2: he said, if you give him a good quarterback, the
Speaker 2: guys are great. And then he said the guys were great,
Speaker 2: which would mean that anyway. I've got the Lions in
Speaker 2: this one as well. Twenty seven to ten to twenty
Speaker 2: three because the first time these two teams played a
Speaker 2: Week six, I'm on Ross Saint Brown had fifteen targets
Speaker 2: fifteen all week long. Been dissecting the eagles lack of
Speaker 2: a plan against the Blitz. But Ben Johnson and Jared
Speaker 2: Goff have seen it all. They had those two games
Speaker 2: against the Flores Vikings, we saw them play against the Buccaneers.
Speaker 2: The personnel isn't the same, but the sun god arises
Speaker 2: this weekend. Twenty seven, twenty three Lions. Yes, we all believe. Wow,
Speaker 2: every single one of us. Wow, even if a couple
Speaker 2: of us didn't last week. Catch it all with the

Speaker 5: Tom for quick picks.
Speaker 2: Let's take a look at all the games this weekend
Speaker 2: starting with the quarterback we think will pass for the
Speaker 2: most yards, and you like Jared Goff here, Cynthia, I do.
Speaker 4: The indoor cat is going to indoor cat it up.
Speaker 4: I think this is a high scoring game. I think
Speaker 4: this is an opportunity for Amanase Brown to be a
Speaker 4: target quite a bit. And I also think you don't
Speaker 4: run against this Todd Bulesy defense. So just go with
Speaker 4: the thing that makes the most sense, and that is
Speaker 4: Jared Goff throwing the ball behind this awesome O line.
Speaker 4: And by the way, the decibels at Ford Field last
Speaker 4: week were over one hundred and thirty three. I think
Speaker 4: like let's go for Hopefully Jared Goff's passer rating is
Speaker 4: right around there as well.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I know we got to respect the
Speaker 3: Bucks in all, but it's a divisional round game and
Speaker 3: you get to play against the team that should have
Speaker 3: probably lost to the Panthers two weeks ago. That's a
Speaker 3: good matchup. That's a good match stop.
Speaker 2: No, I think the Brock Party is gonna throw a
Speaker 2: lot of those short passes that are going to turn
Speaker 2: into some long games. Let's look at the running backs.
Speaker 2: Though I'm the only one not picking Christian McCaffrey.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and that's because I think you're wrong.
Speaker 2: As previously stated by the very astute, very knowledgeable Cynthia Freeland,
Speaker 2: it doesn't take much for Jamiir Gibbs to break a
Speaker 2: long one. And I think if if the blitz is
Speaker 2: going the wrong direction, if they if they bite too
Speaker 2: much on play action, it just takes a handful of
Speaker 2: carrys for the home run hitter to hit a home run.
Speaker 2: We haven't seen it yet in the playoffs. I think
Speaker 2: Jamiir Gribbs is gonna have a couple against the Buccaneers.
Speaker 3: I just I yes, I hope so are we only
Speaker 3: are we getting more Jamiir Gibbs later, We'll have to
Speaker 3: find out and write this down. The one thing that
Speaker 3: worries me though he only had nineteen snaps last week,
Speaker 3: It's like, what was that all about? Get him out
Speaker 3: there a little more.
Speaker 2: Detroit has a lead, maybe, you know, thanks starta let's
Speaker 2: get Cynthia fired up and Greg. Absolutely no common ground
Speaker 2: between the three of us on who will have the
Speaker 2: most receiving yards.
Speaker 5: But you were going with the Packers rookie.
Speaker 3: Ye, yeah, I know, let's go totally off the board.
Speaker 3: Jaden Reid gets it done this week. You want to
Speaker 3: know why because he had no yards last week. Somehow
Speaker 3: the leader and their receptions for the season. And I
Speaker 3: do like the matchup over the middle of the field.
Speaker 3: I think that's where you can get at San Francisco. Yes,
Speaker 3: the linebackers are great, but I'm talking about the safeties
Speaker 3: the way that they can use them. You just never
Speaker 3: know what's gonna happen with this Packers team. Who's gonna
Speaker 3: step up? And so it's gonna be Jaden Reid from
Speaker 3: my guy Jordan Love Patrick.
Speaker 4: You took ayukraight? Yeah, okay, So which is funny because
Speaker 4: didn't Craig just get finished telling us that as good
Speaker 4: as we think, you get better.
Speaker 5: I think that Brandon Ayuk is the best in the
Speaker 5: league this weekend. So how can it be better? Greg?
Speaker 5: How can it be better?
Speaker 3: I'm stuck because Jordan is gonna have to throw sixty
Speaker 3: five fastes because Joe Berry's defense keeps up sixty five points.
Speaker 2: There It is a score fests, maybe a little Temple
Speaker 2: Bill God Baha.
Speaker 5: The Chiefs and the Bills.
Speaker 2: Patrick mahomes three and two in his career against Josh Allen,
Speaker 2: including the playoffs, but the Chiefs came in, losing three
Speaker 2: on their last five despite Taylor being in attendance. Josh
Speaker 2: Allen thirty three total touchdowns this season, fourteen and two
Speaker 2: in December since twenty twenty. And that's why he's like,
Speaker 2: I got a December win record to hold up. Pile
Speaker 2: drives his way into the en zone for get off
Speaker 2: me six yards. Theory flexes Bill's lead fourteen to ten.
Speaker 2: But here comes KC. Mahomes looks short to Cadarius Tony
Speaker 2: and Cadarius Tony drops it. And that's the only mistake
Speaker 2: he would make in this game.
Speaker 3: It's not true.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's that's not true. He took his eyes off
Speaker 5: the ball.
Speaker 2: Chiefs league leading thirty third drop but not dropping one
Speaker 2: was the rookie Rahi Raye's four yard touchdown.
Speaker 5: Chiefs cut the lead to three.
Speaker 2: Mahomes finished twenty five of forty three two seventy one
Speaker 2: and that touchdown.
Speaker 5: Fourth quarter. Now it's tied at seventeen.
Speaker 2: Josh Allen can't find anyone and he's sacked by George
Speaker 2: car Loftus.
Speaker 5: They lose four yards, but there is.
Speaker 2: A flag on the play. It's a legal contact. Good call,
Speaker 2: Rank says it's a good call.
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm curious if Carloftis is a big factor
Speaker 3: in this game against this good O line.
Speaker 2: So they get a first down in a field goal.
Speaker 2: But here come the Chiefs. Patrick Mahomes hits Travis Kelcey,
Speaker 2: who sees out of the corner of his eye Caadarius
Speaker 2: Tony in the wild card that is, Travis Kelcey makes
Speaker 2: one of the greatest players of all Remember it forever because.
Speaker 5: It didn't count.
Speaker 2: Kadarius Tony was lined up off sides and then offensive
Speaker 2: off sides was called excessively for the next couple of weeks. Unfortunately,
Speaker 2: that scourge is over. But also that game was over
Speaker 2: as Patrick Mahomes was upset at the call. And they're
Speaker 2: now tied all time, three and three, crazy and the
Speaker 2: rubber matches. The Chiefs head to Buffalo for a rematch
Speaker 2: Sunday night. Patrick mahomes first true road playoff game gave Davis,
Speaker 2: Christian Benford, Taylor Rapp already ruled out for the Bills. Cynthia,
Speaker 2: do you think they win despite that?
Speaker 4: Well, I did a bunch of Matthia, and we're getting
Speaker 4: to the tipping point here, so it could switch on Sunday,
Speaker 4: But twenty four to twenty three bills is what I
Speaker 4: have right now. If they lose many more players, it
Speaker 4: could flip. I have twenty five to twenty three if
Speaker 4: that should be the case. If we see some of
Speaker 4: these guys who are on the potential question list or whatever,
Speaker 4: I don't know, they're not doubtful, they're limited or whatever.
Speaker 4: If they don't play, that's going to be a big problem.
Speaker 4: I do want to talk about Josh Allen though, and
Speaker 4: Josh Allen's legs. I don't know if you guys know this,
Speaker 4: but I love the movie Pitch Perfect, and nobody talks
Speaker 4: about the fact that Josh Allen is dating the girl
Speaker 4: from that Hailey Steinfeld. Really we only talk about out
Speaker 4: the other one dated anyway.
Speaker 3: So I just want I just want to see you
Speaker 3: not showing up, show up on Sunday. Let's go hey,
Speaker 3: because they.
Speaker 4: Just don't put on the screen as much, right so
Speaker 4: maybe we should get like a little a cappella going anyway,
Speaker 4: Long story short, Josh Allen's ability to run is being
Speaker 4: game changing if you look at what's happened since Joe
Speaker 4: Brady took over and they had their by he said
Speaker 4: at least two designed runs in each game except their
Speaker 4: blowout win over the Cowboys, so that has been a
Speaker 4: difference maker. And none more sticks out than that fifty
Speaker 4: two yarder last week, which happens to be like the
Speaker 4: longest in Bill's history, second longest in playoff history. Just
Speaker 4: absolutely decimates you with this. Likes.
Speaker 3: I gotta admit, like my head, my heart are in
Speaker 3: different places with this. It's like it's it's hard to
Speaker 3: pick against Patrick Mahomes and one of the best defense
Speaker 3: in the league, certainly the best defense he's ever had
Speaker 3: in yet I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna pick the Bills.
Speaker 3: I believe in you. I've said all season they're gonna
Speaker 3: respond from this six and six and maybe go all
Speaker 3: the way. And it's because of that support Josh Allen's
Speaker 3: getting not just from Haley style Seinfeld, but from Khalil
Speaker 3: Shakir and from Cooks and from Dalton Kincaide and the
Speaker 3: offensive line. And it's interesting, We've always wanted to see
Speaker 3: like Patrick Mahomes with it with a better defense and
Speaker 3: maybe a better offensive line, and he has that now,
Speaker 3: and he doesn't have the weapons, and now Josh Allen
Speaker 3: is the one with a good offensive line and the weapons,
Speaker 3: and so even if Stefan Diggs gets taken out of
Speaker 3: this game a little bit, and he did the first
Speaker 3: time they played against le Jerius. See, we have seen
Speaker 3: that the secondary players and I know Gabe Davis isn't there,
Speaker 3: but Shakir and Cook and just this whole group is
Speaker 3: really coming together. And I think the offensive line cannot
Speaker 3: be lost in this because the Chiefs have a very
Speaker 3: good defensive line. That's where they win up front. And
Speaker 3: I think the Bills, who have been very healthy upfront
Speaker 3: all season, give Josh Allen the protection the blocking they need,
Speaker 3: and he goes hero mode and he gets to win
Speaker 3: twenty three to.
Speaker 5: Twenty goes hero mode.
Speaker 2: And I guys, there are some certainties in sports, especially
Speaker 2: in sports discussion. If you haven't done something before, then
Speaker 2: in sports discussion that means you can never.
Speaker 5: Possibly do it.
Speaker 2: And Patrick Mahomes has never won a true road playoff
Speaker 2: game because they're so good and they end up playing
Speaker 2: at home and they end up winning. I've got the
Speaker 2: Chiefs winning here in Buffalo. This is a twenty seven
Speaker 2: to twenty six win because it's just too much. Bill's
Speaker 2: no Christian Benford No Taylor, rapt Rel, Bernard Razul, Douglas's
Speaker 2: gonna be game time decisions during the Bills win streak.
Speaker 2: I don't want to show these guys getting hurt. I
Speaker 2: want to show the plays that all of these guys
Speaker 2: have made because Buffalo, as Greg pointed out, as Cynthia
Speaker 2: pointed out, the odds were not in their favor, but
Speaker 2: they just kept doing it week after week after week.
Speaker 2: Football is not fair, and these guys got hurt at
Speaker 2: the absolute wrong time. It's a short game because of
Speaker 2: the snow. It's just everything has worked against them. I've
Speaker 2: got to take Patrick.
Speaker 5: Mahomes and the Chiefs to win in Buffalo by a point.
Speaker 5: It's time for this guy or that guy.
Speaker 2: Mahomes had one touchdown last week, Josh Allen toss three.
Speaker 2: Who's more likely for multiple scores through the air.
Speaker 3: Greg, I'm gonna Mahomes, and it's difficult to say either.
Speaker 3: It was more likely when Josh Allen is the guy
Speaker 3: who scores to such on week after week after week.
Speaker 3: So I think they both can go over. But to me,
Speaker 3: Mahomes is a better pick in this one because he's
Speaker 3: more likely to be throwing the ball where Josh Allen
Speaker 3: liking that first matchup could be running in for a touchdown,
Speaker 3: and that first matchup is the game where we really
Speaker 3: saw their offense consolidate. That it's all Kelsey and all
Speaker 3: RACEI Rice. It was the same last week. They're getting
Speaker 3: all the targets. That's all you need, really, Raci, Rice,
Speaker 3: Travis Kelce, Patrick Mahomes is the guy.
Speaker 4: If you had to say which one's more likely or
Speaker 4: is both the most likely? Which one would you pick
Speaker 4: of those three options, I'd go.
Speaker 3: Both because I just like touchdowns and I like sports.
Speaker 2: We're also fans of touchdowns and sports. Spoiler alert on
Speaker 2: this Sheldon.
Speaker 4: Great quarterback to run touchdowns and sports.
Speaker 2: Run for more than sixty two yards. Isaiah Pacheco or
Speaker 2: James Cook.
Speaker 4: So I have James Cook in this matchup, partly because
Speaker 4: of the weather, and also you got to keep Josh
Speaker 4: Allen from the situation where things get dicey and you're
Speaker 4: looking for your second third read without Gabe Davis, there
Speaker 4: are some of those deeper question marks. So for me,
Speaker 4: run the ball, leverage the opportunity to take James Cook
Speaker 4: on early downs and make him effective. That to me
Speaker 4: just feels like just run right behind Spencer Brown. He's
Speaker 4: like seventy five feet tall and he's a right tackle.
Speaker 4: Run right behind him. He is the best run blocker
Speaker 4: of any alignment this year so far.
Speaker 3: So do that I hate to get out like old
Speaker 3: school football, but it does feel like which team can
Speaker 3: run the ball here, and more than like which offensive
Speaker 3: coordinator can take the gamble that the other opposing coach
Speaker 3: is gonna give him, They're gonna dare them to run.
Speaker 3: Steve Spagnola did that the first time around, and the
Speaker 3: Bills kind of took that bet and they did run
Speaker 3: the ball well. Andy Reid in big spots, Willy actually
Speaker 3: stick to the run easily, doesn't.
Speaker 5: We've seen things go either way. As we all feel
Speaker 5: this game could last.
Speaker 2: One more likely to score a touchdown For me, I'll
Speaker 2: Rashive Rice or Stefan Diggs. Really, I'm picking which defense
Speaker 2: is most likely to prevent the other guy from scoring
Speaker 2: the touchdown. And I think Rashi Rice going up against
Speaker 2: this injured Bills secondary and team, because remember those linebackers
Speaker 2: having to cover Rashi Rice running all of these crossers
Speaker 2: over and over again, so much action in the backfield,
Speaker 2: and the Andy Reid offense, I think Rashi Rice makes
Speaker 2: his way into the end zone, but still looking forward
Speaker 2: to the game.
Speaker 4: I just like sports sports.
Speaker 3: This is the perfect last game like this is how
Speaker 3: the hard.
Speaker 5: Let's look at some over unders for the Divisional round.
Speaker 2: According to fan Duel, the Packers and the forty nine
Speaker 2: Ers have the highest number at fifty and a half.
Speaker 2: Right behind them the Bucks, the Lions, then the Chiefs, Bills, Texans,
Speaker 2: Ravens rounding things out. So let's talk about some of
Speaker 2: these matchups here in the divisional round as we get
Speaker 2: to over under and what we think. Starting with the
Speaker 2: Texans and Ravens at forty three and a half, I
Speaker 2: don't think forty three and a half is enough points.
Speaker 5: I've got the over here, especially.
Speaker 2: Because I think Baltimore gets you twenty six easy get
Speaker 2: for the Texans to clear that I've got the open.
Speaker 3: I do as well. I'm going over. They made these
Speaker 3: hands just for me, number one, and the picks we're
Speaker 3: number one, thank you. These two teams are more explosive
Speaker 3: than you realize. A lot of big plays from the
Speaker 3: Texans so that short drives, long touchdowns. Ravens can do
Speaker 3: the same. We're going over.
Speaker 4: I just think that in order for CJ. Stroud and
Speaker 4: this Texans offense to have a chance against the Ravens,
Speaker 4: they gotta go big play right away, just like we
Speaker 4: saw with Nico Collins two games ago.
Speaker 3: Oba.
Speaker 5: All Right, the highest.
Speaker 2: Total and maybe the most for us to kind of
Speaker 2: contend with here the Packers and the forty nine ers fifty.
Speaker 3: And a half.
Speaker 2: I think that's a lot of points and I'm going
Speaker 2: to take the under and less things get super out
Speaker 2: of hand. I think late after the forty nine Ers
Speaker 2: get ahead to the lead, they ice the ball, they
Speaker 2: run the ball, and the Packers forced to throw over
Speaker 2: and over again turnovers.
Speaker 5: I don't think it happened.
Speaker 3: See, you're wrong, Patrick, because we live in an offensive world.
Speaker 3: In a defensive league, all the numbers say these are
Speaker 3: the top two quarterbacks, and basically every stat in the
Speaker 3: second half of the season the best two quarterbacks numbers wise,
Speaker 3: going against each other, we're going way over.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna get defensive here with you, and I have
Speaker 4: forty eight total points in this matchup. I actually think
Speaker 4: we saw a buster, a tendency buster from the Packers
Speaker 4: last week, playing a lot more zone than we had seen,
Speaker 4: and I think they'll try to create some sort of
Speaker 4: nonsense this.
Speaker 2: Week too, Oh we love nonsense. Are the Bucks and
Speaker 2: the Lions total again kind of high? Forty eight point five.
Speaker 2: I don't think that's high enough because I believe in
Speaker 2: Jared Golf, I believe in the Lions, and I think
Speaker 2: the lines will make several big plays in this game.
Speaker 2: The Bucks will have to score some points late to
Speaker 2: keep up. I think that gets you north. I got
Speaker 2: fifty points in this week.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have fifty as well, the same and so
Speaker 3: I'm just over. And the reason why this game is
Speaker 3: different than the other three this week, and something Todd
Speaker 3: Bowles pointed out this week, the plans up the game
Speaker 3: is indoors, and so there's been a lot of controversy.
Speaker 3: Is it indoors? Is it outdoors? It is going to
Speaker 3: be indoors. Points indoors, you know, news alert.
Speaker 4: The Ford Field's been indoors now since they made it.
Speaker 4: I only have forty eight points, which is just half
Speaker 4: a point under. So if I'm going with my gut,
Speaker 4: Tommy says this, Math says this. Tommy says this, Math
Speaker 4: says this.
Speaker 2: And again, if you're a news reporter that's forced into
Speaker 2: covering a sports press conference, sometimes you don't.
Speaker 3: You don't necessarily happened to ask you a question, So
Speaker 3: I need a Also, it says going on, I want
Speaker 3: to I want someone to make a little video about.
Speaker 2: Uh the Chiefs of Bills over under his forty five
Speaker 2: and a half. I think we get a score fest here.
Speaker 2: I got points because I'm looking forward to this game.
Speaker 2: I think they go up and down the field and
Speaker 2: the Chiefs win in a last second Harrison bucker field
Speaker 2: goal that they hits the over.
Speaker 3: This is my one. I'm going under. I think these
Speaker 3: two defenses. Sean McDermott has just been outstanding, UH since
Speaker 3: he got called out for some questionable motivational tactics a
Speaker 3: few years go, really misguided, his defense and his coaching
Speaker 3: has been outstanding. So I think these are two really
Speaker 3: good defenses we're going under.
Speaker 4: I'm going over in this one. I have forty seven
Speaker 4: total points. I think it's going to be a close game.
Speaker 4: This one's the most likely to go into overtime for me,
Speaker 4: which means the potential for more points is even better. Also,
Speaker 4: I like the snowballs being thrown, so I.
Speaker 2: Need to see more of that, especially when before the
Speaker 2: game the fans are told there will be no throwing
Speaker 2: of snow, and then we all celebrate the fel.
Speaker 4: Like I'll be asked with you. They probably reminded people
Speaker 4: they could throw the snow like you're like, don't do.
Speaker 2: It, don't do it, but definitely not an end zone target.
Speaker 2: Like somebody almost hit George Pickens.
Speaker 5: Don't do that.
Speaker 4: Let's get some just throw it like in the air
Speaker 4: for fun.
Speaker 2: Tom to get some more quick picks. Let's give the
Speaker 2: tight ends some love, starting with George Kittle. Greg Will
Speaker 2: George Kittle score a touchdown this weekend?
Speaker 3: Okay, so I ran it through my model. George Kittle
Speaker 3: six touchdowns this year? There were sixteen games. Divide six
Speaker 3: by sixteen. That's no, that's no, that's what that is.
Speaker 5: Unless unless they play play the game seven more times.
Speaker 3: Or if they played the Packers every week, would he
Speaker 3: only have six touchns. Don't point out these inconsistencies. I
Speaker 3: just I'm feeling I you can CMC, That's what I'm okay, Okay, fine.
Speaker 4: It's going to do some out there. But you just
Speaker 4: said you're feeling it. It's fine, model you and your model.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I think the Niners get some points
Speaker 2: and George Kittle red zone target after play action towards CMC.
Speaker 5: Cynthia.
Speaker 2: Let's go to another tight end. Talk about your boy,
Speaker 2: Sam Laporta. Does Sam Laporta get in the end zone?
Speaker 4: Yes, Sam Laporta gets in the end zone. He's kind
Speaker 4: of my like X factor in this one. Although can
Speaker 4: you be an X factor if you're so well known?
Speaker 4: I don't know about that, but I do think he
Speaker 4: gets in the end zone. And listen, Greg may mock
Speaker 4: me about having a.
Speaker 3: Model, not mocking, that was my model six divide by sixteen.
Speaker 4: All right, fine, my model, says Laporta, end zone and
Speaker 4: all of you agree. Your model agrees with my model.
Speaker 3: Here, I mean her the graphic Sam Laporta is a
Speaker 3: is a model rookie tight end? Oh there we go,
Speaker 3: second team All Pro.
Speaker 4: I have to pay me every time you say the
Speaker 4: word modeling. Okay, I've trademarked it. I will.
Speaker 3: You know, like a lot of the all time greats
Speaker 3: as rookie tight ends, Yeah, they weren't second team All Pro.
Speaker 3: It didn't really happen. This is one of the best
Speaker 3: seasons any rookie Titans.
Speaker 2: Ever had, and also the first time the Bucks played
Speaker 2: the Lions back in week six, Sam.
Speaker 5: Reporter get eleven targets.
Speaker 2: We talking about Ama Ross fifteen they were feeding Sam Laporta,
Speaker 2: so I think they have a chance to do so again.
Speaker 2: Last one, does Travis Kelce get into the end zone
Speaker 2: for the first time since week eleven?
Speaker 5: You guys both say no. But what I presuppose with
Speaker 5: my pick your models? Kelsey does I don't have a model.
Speaker 2: I've got like a pro Tiva from nineteen ninety six
Speaker 2: with a twenty eight eight modem, so it doesn't run anything.
Speaker 2: But again, the Bills defense is hurt right now and
Speaker 2: one of the most difficult things to do.
Speaker 5: It's not like it was.
Speaker 2: Go back and watch twenty eighteen Travis Kelce. He's insane.
Speaker 2: He's impossible to cover. This is not that Travis Kelce.
Speaker 2: But he still has a connection with Patrick Mahomes and
Speaker 2: they do fun stuff towards the end zone, and I
Speaker 2: think he scores one of those touchdowns.
Speaker 4: Your model is actually more recent than the last time
Speaker 4: the Lions won home playoff game if you think about it.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, so your model is actually pretty recent in
Speaker 4: terms of that. I keep telling everyone this week, like
Speaker 4: I keep getting text messages from friends and family about
Speaker 4: the lines. We couldn't have done this the last time
Speaker 4: they did it. I mean they were like seven where
Speaker 4: we were like young kids, but you know it didn't exist.
Speaker 4: There was no iPhone.
Speaker 3: We'll get tell them like it's not the first since
Speaker 3: ninety one, it's the second win since fifty seven. That
Speaker 3: really does it.
Speaker 4: Right, Like we're there fart, that's a little extra with
Speaker 4: TV all black and white.
Speaker 2: Then very fortunately that those seventy years of Lions aren't
Speaker 2: playing this weekend, so none of that actually matters. It's
Speaker 2: time to write this down as we get some predictions
Speaker 2: for the divisional round that you must take note of.
Speaker 5: Start as software.
Speaker 3: Yeah, for once, I'm the best dressed person on the set,
Speaker 3: and he gave me some little Caesars merch and I
Speaker 3: think I'm rocking it right now. You know what else
Speaker 3: is going to happen this weekend? All the favorites are
Speaker 3: going to win. And you say the NFL, Oh, so
Speaker 3: many surprising things happen every week, Like you never know
Speaker 3: what's going to happen in the NFL. Maybe the most
Speaker 3: surprising thing is that nothing surprising happens. All four favorites,
Speaker 3: line them up, pick them and I'm not talking about
Speaker 3: they win by at least nine and a half. I'm
Speaker 3: just saying forty nine Ers win, Ravens win, Lions win,
Speaker 3: and then Bills connect. This four team matchup, however you
Speaker 3: want to think about it, and it all comes through
Speaker 3: and we get a great championship weekend.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's like a square.
Speaker 3: Yes, it's all it's all connected, it's all connect.
Speaker 4: All connected.
Speaker 5: Interesting Cynthia.
Speaker 4: Okay, I love me some rushing numbers, and I think
Speaker 4: the Josh Allen is going to have at least forty
Speaker 4: four rushing yards. I also think Patrick Mahomes is going
Speaker 4: to have at least twenty seven rushing yards. So if
Speaker 4: you're looking at a game and you're saying, hey, Bill's Chiefs,
Speaker 4: what do I look at? Just look at the rushing
Speaker 4: numbers for the quarterbacks and say.
Speaker 3: Lots lots of lots of lots of lots of lots,
Speaker 3: cots of pizza, but lots of lots of I want lots.
Speaker 5: Of lots of pizza. Pizza.
Speaker 2: Shout out to Little Caesars, the official Pizzo Super Bowl fifty.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know our show.
Speaker 2: On the show, we've celebrated a particular Detroit lion who
Speaker 2: went to the University of Alabama, who makes big plays
Speaker 2: and I'm gonna do that again.
Speaker 3: But it's not that guy.
Speaker 5: It's Jamison Williams.
Speaker 2: I think he will have over thirty five receiving yards
Speaker 2: against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. We saw Jared Goff hitting
Speaker 2: for that bomb touchdown again. We know Todd Bowles is
Speaker 2: going to be blitzing.
Speaker 5: It only takes one and I.
Speaker 2: Think Jamo can get you that one and get more
Speaker 2: than thirty five receiving yards again. Is Sam Laporter gonna
Speaker 2: get eleven targets? Those other targets gotta go to someone
Speaker 2: if they give I'm on Rod fifteen again.
Speaker 5: Jamison is going to be the.
Speaker 3: Cynthy'll be there watching do it for sim Field for
Speaker 3: talking out with me on Sunday.
Speaker 4: Elwood Burn Grill, Yes.
Speaker 2: Thanks for a lot of game debut delivered by Little Caesars,
Speaker 2: the official pizza sponsor, The should be the Field.
