It's seemingly a birthright for 12 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,279 Speaker 1: the Chiefs to end up in the AFC Championship Game 13 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:47,880 Speaker 1: at least, if not the Super Bowl. 14 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:49,919 Speaker 3: Well, in order to do that. 15 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,199 Speaker 1: You have to make the playoffs, and that appears to 16 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 1: be all but done at this point. While not mathematically eliminated, 17 00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:01,320 Speaker 1: realistically eliminated. We go to Arrowhead where we'll Anderson, the 18 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 1: headline linebacker leading the NFL's top ranked defense. They Houston 19 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,960 Speaker 1: Texans taking on Patrick Mahomey and the Chiefs. It was 20 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,960 Speaker 1: an island game. Oh the island lighte for me, the 21 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 1: island life for me. Chris Collinsworth and Mike Tariko had 22 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 1: to call on in me. 23 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 4: Now. 24 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 1: I don't know if you watched it or not, perhaps not, 25 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:28,480 Speaker 1: but he was a turnover Poloosa as Houston intercepted Mahomes 26 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:32,679 Speaker 1: not once, not twice, but three times and stopped Kansas 27 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 1: City on not one, but two fourth down tries in 28 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 1: the second half late in the game, and they win 29 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 1: twenty to ten. They being the team from Texas, they 30 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: go to Arrowhead Stadium and. 31 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 3: There you go, there you go. 32 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: They go to Aerohead Stadium and they end up winning 33 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: the game on the road, a game that has major 34 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: AFC playoff implications. 35 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 3: Nick go, he's pretty good. I hear, I hear, he's 36 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 3: pretty good. 37 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 1: And he got it done there and had four catches 38 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty one yards as the Texans get 39 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 1: their eight. 40 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 3: Win of the year, the eight and five, and they win. 41 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 5: Their fifth straight overall, and they are burn dogging the 42 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 5: Jacksonville Juguars, who blew out the free falling Indianapolis Colts. 43 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 3: They're about done there. 44 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 1: It's a nice story for a few weeks, but the 45 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones down for the county. Even if you stayed healthy, 46 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,359 Speaker 1: they still would have been out. So the AFC South, 47 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,359 Speaker 1: you got Jacksonville and Houston, but we're talking about Houston here. 48 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: But the better story is in the losing locker room, 49 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 1: and so that is where we're going to go. The Chiefs, 50 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: who have been to the Super Bowl three straight years, 51 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:49,240 Speaker 1: are now under five hundred six and seven is the record, 52 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 1: and they need. 53 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:52,119 Speaker 3: A whole lot of health. 54 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 1: They need a whole gaggle, a whole gaggle of Guardian 55 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: angels if they're gonna make this happen here and get 56 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 1: in the plus, there would have to be some serious 57 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: manipulation for then, beginning as one of the wildcard teams, 58 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: you can forget about winning the division that is ov 59 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: er Kansas City if you believe the nerds. The nerds 60 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: will tell you that they only have a sixteen percent 61 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 1: chance to make the postseason, according to one of the 62 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 1: many playoff simulators making the rounds. 63 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 3: On this overnight. 64 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: Not only that, but the Chiefs, even if they win 65 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: the four games they've got upcoming here, they would still 66 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: only have about a fifty to fifty shot a little 67 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 1: over that fifty two percent to make it to the postseason, 68 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: meaning that not only they must win every game, but 69 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: they also need a couple of teams to lose multiple times. 70 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: You look at the tie breakers Jacksonville and Houston, Well, 71 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: the Chiefs lost to both those teams, so. 72 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 3: One of them is gonna have to lose a couple 73 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 3: of times. You know. 74 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: If they're in neck and neck for the wildcard spot, 75 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: that's assuming the Chiefs and win four more games. 76 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 3: So let us discuss that is a. 77 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: Good jumping off point. Let's start with the quote of 78 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: the week in the NFL from Andy Reid. Andy Reid 79 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: had said this week leading into the game on Sunday night, 80 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 1: he said the Chiefs were going to try to tickle 81 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: the Texans tonsils on every play. 82 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 3: How did that go? 83 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 1: So I've got auto club, juggling, trope, and bonfire, and 84 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 1: we will combine all of these things together and we 85 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 1: are going to make a nice vacation. 86 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 3: Which is what the Chiefs will be able to do 87 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 3: if they will make the playoffs. They go to a nice, long, hot, 88 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 3: niggity dog vacation. 89 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: Art So, hey, let's carve the turkey, and boy, the 90 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,239 Speaker 1: Chiefs were a turkey, we'll carve with a butter knife. 91 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: Because Andy Reid, that quote, what a great quote, and. 92 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 3: Mois it good? 93 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 1: And we're going to tickle the tonsils on every play. 94 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 1: Of course, then they had to play the game. And 95 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 1: what exactly happened there, Well, Kansas City got a full 96 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:06,239 Speaker 1: blown prostate exam administered by the Houston Defense. 97 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 3: So it did not go quite the way they were 98 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 3: hoping for. 99 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: No amnesia, no warning, just a nice prostate exam, just 100 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 1: bend over Fellas. This once magical Mahomes, magic, the chiefs 101 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: and all that. Right now at this point they need 102 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: to call the auto club and get a tow truck 103 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 1: over there, because I think the tow trucks in the 104 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 1: parking lot idling over there because the Geloppie has a 105 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 1: run out of gas and there's some problems with the engine. 106 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: Here they're not just stuck in the mud, they are 107 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: buried like a mini van and. 108 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 3: A mud slide. At this particular point here you got. 109 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: Mahomes, who's mister Hall of Famer and all that, and 110 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: his podcast buddy Travis Kelce the bearded Babe for Taylor Swift. 111 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: There the security blanket, well, I think had one catch 112 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: in this game. 113 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 3: And so the line is that iron sharpman's iron. 114 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 1: That's you know, you go against the top defense, you 115 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: test yourself where you are and in this case iron 116 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 1: turned into aluminum foil getting shredded in a kitchen blender. 117 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 3: As you are what your. 118 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 1: Record says you are. And right now the Chiefs are 119 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 1: under five hundred. That is the outfit they are. They're 120 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 1: under five hundred, and it looks on a seemingly we 121 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:28,840 Speaker 1: weekly basis here you watch them play that they're running 122 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 1: a malfunctioning do hickey. The do hickey is malfunctioning about 123 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 1: on this game it was over eighty percent of the times, 124 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,159 Speaker 1: eighty three percent of the time. Now, how did I 125 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 1: get to the number eighty three percent? That the Chiefs 126 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: are miles apart from where they need to be? So 127 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 1: eighty three percent of the time they had twelve drives 128 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: Kansas City did. Four of the drives ended up in punts, 129 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 1: three of them ended up in interceptions, and two of 130 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 1: them turnover on downs slim pickens and a partridge in 131 00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 1: a pear tree of incompetence. 132 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 3: And Kansas City also went four to fourteen. I'm third down. 133 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 3: I'm told that's not good. 134 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 1: And you had my favorite, the receivers playing volleyball with 135 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: Mahomes passes there and suddenly the playoff odds for Kansas 136 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: City looked like a deflated balloon at a kid's birthday 137 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: party at all sad wheezing. No lyft done of that stuff. 138 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: To Again, this was not as Andy Reid described it. 139 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: It was not tonsil tickling that took place. This was 140 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 1: the Texans domination and the turnovers of the defense leading 141 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: to all the points the Texans scored in the second half. 142 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: So it's not like the Texans did much of anything 143 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: against the Chiefs defense, but the mistakes by Kansas City 144 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 1: setting off the Texans for some points there. Now turning 145 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: the page to the quarterback room, and the question on 146 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: this one is what can be said about Patrick Mahomes 147 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: and his struggles for the Chiefs in this in this game. 148 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: And so this was a full on migraine to the 149 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: tenth degree. There is a full on migraine there for Mahomes, 150 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: and somebody needs to go down to the pharmacy, go 151 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: down to Walgreens, get some pharmacy grade ibuprofen, because the 152 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: standard is the standard is Mike Tomlin says, they're in Pittsburgh, 153 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: but the standard is the standard in general. And Mahomes 154 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: belly wopped and flopped right under it and don't blame 155 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 1: the makeship offensive line. That was a big part of 156 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: this game coming in signing guys off the street. They 157 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 1: were getting guys off Craig's list and offer up, Hey, 158 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:39,319 Speaker 1: how would you like to play offensive line for the 159 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: chief Sure, I guess I'll play offensive line for the Chiefs. 160 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: How much does it pay? What are the benefits? How 161 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 1: many hours a day do I have to work? All 162 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: that stuff? Mahomes is only sacked twice. Now he was 163 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: pressured a bunch, but he was only sacked twice. And 164 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: this was a pass catcher mutiny. A pass catcher mutiny 165 00:08:56,160 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 1: is what happened in this particular game. It just was 166 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: Kansas City's receivers formed a VIP club, as in, very 167 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: ineffective people, a very ineffective people at catching the ball. 168 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: They had six drop passes in this game. And that's 169 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: an NFL receiving court. Of course, when you drop six passes, 170 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 1: it's not really an NFL receiving court. That's a juggling 171 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: troop that without the hand one coordination. I mean, Mike go, 172 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: we could put inca terror blind Scott Stevie, meatballs, blind Emmett, 173 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,439 Speaker 1: the Great Blind Army of the Malla and Militia, and 174 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: they could juggle better than the receivers in terms of 175 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 1: catching the ball. Rashie Rice had a fourth and four 176 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: on a fourth down play and the pass was right there, 177 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 1: and then what do you do? That was a chef's kiss, 178 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: chef's kiss of incompetence. Mahomes stepped off, delivered to strike 179 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 1: and then Rice treats it like a hot potato. What 180 00:09:59,400 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 1: are you doing? 181 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 3: So? 182 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 1: Second straight week he coughed off a late throw out. 183 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: Remember the game against Dallas. And if only he caught 184 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 1: passes the way he drives recklessly through Dallas, they'd be 185 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 1: onto something. And then you've got Travis Kelce, mister swift, 186 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: the podcast guy who decided to play like a podcaster 187 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 1: as he bobbled one up in the air like he 188 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 1: was trying out for the Olympic. 189 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 3: Beach volleyball team. And that was picked off, and that 190 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 3: was that. 191 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: Here's Andy Reid, big Red, Big Red, what do you 192 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 1: have to say for all those passes that were battered 193 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: in the air everywhere? 194 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 6: Oh listen, these are great players, So I mean, we 195 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 6: gotta make sure we catch the ball. They know that, 196 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:44,839 Speaker 6: and they're trying a flag effort there all went through 197 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 6: their hands, and that happens. You know, those guys are 198 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:49,679 Speaker 6: great players. 199 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 1: Okay, well they weren't on this night. Great players, so 200 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 1: that's wonderful. They have good resumes and good pro football 201 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: reference pages. But it didn't help you in this game. 202 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 1: And as the line of thinking goes. 203 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 3: All that matters is what you do in the moment. 204 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 1: Right, they flipped the script and so the Texans are 205 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: feeling pretty good about themselves into the stratosphere. So Mahomes 206 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: ends up with one of the worst games of his 207 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: career since he established himself as the greatest quarterback of 208 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 1: this generation. He had nineteen incomplete passes nineteen of them 209 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 1: fourteen of thirty three nineteen incomplete passes, no touchdowns, and 210 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: three interceptions, a passer rating below twenty, which means indeed, 211 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: if the Chiefs had just stabbed the ball and hiked 212 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 1: and thrown in the ground, he would have had a 213 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 1: higher passer rating. Now that's not the face of the dynasty. 214 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 1: It was not in this game. That's a quarterback stuck 215 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: in football traffic and you're just right there on the 216 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:49,880 Speaker 1: world's longest one lane road, and it's a season long frustration. 217 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,080 Speaker 1: It's just one little thing here and then a thing 218 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: of a jig over there, and the what you McCall, 219 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: it doesn't work, and then you find yourself here a 220 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 1: bunch of self inflicted wounds everywhere. And that's how you 221 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 1: end up going from a AFC championship team to out 222 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 1: of the playoffs. 223 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 3: Just like that. 224 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 1: Now, last word, a lot of people trying to climb 225 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:17,840 Speaker 1: on to the bandwagon for the Houston Texans, trying to 226 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: get a little you know, get a seat there, and 227 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 1: there's no seats left. So it's like those trains in 228 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 1: is it India where they you know, the big train 229 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 1: is like once a year they jump on top. 230 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 3: Of the train. It's like an amazing thing. Have you 231 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 3: ever seen that before? I think it's in India? But CJ. 232 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 1: Stroud two hundred and three yards and a touchdown, And 233 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 1: the question here does this win. 234 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 3: At Arrowhead Stadium? 235 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: Does it lessen the pressure, the immense pressure on the 236 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 1: Texans quarterback CJ. 237 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,559 Speaker 3: Stroud? Remember the Texans. 238 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: Had done fine when he was out, In fact, they 239 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: started finding their mojo with Davis Mills the backup. So 240 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 1: does this win at Arrowhead help things out for CJ? 241 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: Sh I would say absolutely not if anything. If you 242 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 1: saw the game, it throws another log on the bonfire. 243 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: It throws another log on the bonfire. That makes me 244 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: what Kansas City practically hand delivered five turnovers, three picks, 245 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 1: two turnovers on downs, a couple of them deep deep 246 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: in their own territory. It's kind of like somebody dropping 247 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: their wallet at your feet with a big water cash 248 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,839 Speaker 1: sticking out and they walk away. And then Stroud still 249 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: needed a search party to close the deal in the 250 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,680 Speaker 1: second half, and he had a front row seat CJ. 251 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 1: Stroud on the vomit comet. He was right there on 252 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 1: the vomit comet, and not on the same street, not 253 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 1: the same stride of the street with his receivers. 254 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 3: In the second half, a road win at Arrowhead, CJ. 255 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: Stroud attempted twelve passes, completed three of them for thirty 256 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 1: two yards in the second and won a game on 257 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 1: the road, won a game on the road, took the 258 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 1: checkered flag, got it done on the road. Three passes 259 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,160 Speaker 1: he completed in the second half, And it looks like 260 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,079 Speaker 1: the passer ready thirty nine point five is like the 261 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:17,679 Speaker 1: speed limit. 262 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 3: In the school zone. 263 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 1: And that's not exactly taking things to the next level 264 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 1: and cranking it up a couple of notches. 265 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 3: Big boy quarterbacking that is. 266 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: Training wheels stuff. And don't overlook the fact that all 267 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 1: ten points scored by Houston was courtesy of the bloopers 268 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 1: of the Chiefs. They're bloopers there set them up in 269 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 1: the second half. And you look, the Texas were not 270 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: driving the bus. Kansas City was blindly stumbling into traffic. 271 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 1: And the narrative doesn't change because you survived. The Chiefs 272 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 1: melt down there on offense and you got a good 273 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: defense and Stroud that's the point. 274 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 3: Though he didn't quiet any of the noise. He did. 275 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 3: He just turned the. 276 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 1: Volume up and it went from jackhammer volume to leaf 277 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 1: blower volume, and you're just the pressure is still at 278 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 1: full blast because the Texans remain a lopsided team. They're 279 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: a top heavy team, They've got an elite defense, and 280 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 1: that offense is just not very good. And you know 281 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 1: down the line the postseason, you're gonna have these issues 282 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 1: where unless the defense gets two or three turnovers and 283 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: the other team's just completely incompetent, you're not gonna get 284 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: much of. 285 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 3: Anything out of your quarterback. 286 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: And that's just the way is You're gonna have to 287 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: find points in the nook and crannies of your offense 288 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: because there's just not a lot there, and that's just 289 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 1: the reality of the situation. 290 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller 291 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 2: Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on 292 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app. 293 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 7: Fox Sports Radio is taking over YouTube and you can 294 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 7: be a part of it.

Not a great game, well, I 305 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 3: mean if you like turnovers. It was close. The game 306 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 3: went to overtime in the Hood and Inglewood and up 307 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 3: to no good. 308 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: The Birds, the reigning champions of the NFL and not 309 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 1: playing like it right now. No, they're not the bright 310 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 1: lights of Monday night football. The La Power Company was 311 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: hosting the team from Philadelphia and Joe back Troy Aikman 312 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: were They had the call on a bced so I 313 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 1: don't saw a game or not if we watching, I 314 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 1: was at the game for a good chunk of it. 315 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:12,679 Speaker 1: Had to leave early to get here. It's my duty 316 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,120 Speaker 1: to the American people to come in here do sports talk. 317 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:18,160 Speaker 1: So I couldn't be stuck in traffic. But Cameron Dicker, 318 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 1: the kicker, had to go ahead fifty four yard field goal. 319 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 1: He ended up kicking five field goals in the game. 320 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: And Tony Jefferson, who well, he intercepted on a tip 321 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: pass Jalen Hurts at the one yard line and that 322 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 1: lifted the Chargers to a twenty two to nineteen victory 323 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 1: over the free falling Philadelphia Eagle. What a bunch of 324 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 1: chumps the Eagles are, And it was somewhat enjoyable to 325 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:54,199 Speaker 1: see the very braggadosius Eagle fan base who looked a 326 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 1: little numb the way that Jalen Hurts was playing in 327 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 1: this particular game. Now, the better story is in the 328 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 1: losing locker room, and so that is where we're going 329 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: to go. Jalen Hurts had to be kind a clunker, 330 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 1: a clunker for the Ages for Jalen Hurts, who threw 331 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:14,680 Speaker 1: not one, not two, not three, but four four interceptions 332 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:20,879 Speaker 1: and the Eagles committed five turnovers in the game. Jalen 333 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 1: Hurt said the two for one. We'll get to that 334 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 1: coming up in a minute. And here is the man 335 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 1: of the hour. Thought's start with Jalen Hurts here on 336 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:35,200 Speaker 1: the overtime, the Eagles had gotten into field goal range. 337 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,359 Speaker 1: There was a penalty on the Chargers on a fourth 338 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,360 Speaker 1: down play that extended the drive for Philadelphia, which set 339 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:44,640 Speaker 1: up the interception and the final blow, the final body blow, 340 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:48,440 Speaker 1: body blow. Here is Jalen Hurts on what a night. 341 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 1: Four interceptions. Let's talk about that last one. 342 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,640 Speaker 9: I knew it was going to be a tight window drow. 343 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:59,400 Speaker 9: I'd have to watch the film to see it from 344 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 9: the ays film's point of view. Ultimately, it's a play 345 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 9: that I didn't make. You got to handle the ball. 346 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 3: That's a play that. 347 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 9: We've made a million times in that scenario versus a 348 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 9: cloud corner, and I didn't make that play this time around. 349 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: Yes, you did not make that play. So the reigning 350 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 1: Super Bowl champions lose their season worst third in a row. 351 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 1: They are just three games above five hundred. Now, the 352 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 1: good news is they're in the right division. The Giants 353 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:34,160 Speaker 1: aren't trying, the Commanders blow, and the Cowboys suck, so 354 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:36,680 Speaker 1: they're in a good division. There's no one else who's 355 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 1: even competing with them, so they've got that. 356 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:40,120 Speaker 3: Going in Philadelphia. 357 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 1: However, it doesn't change the fact that Eagles are a 358 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 1: total fraud in terms of being a Super Bowl content. 359 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 3: Does anyone disagree with that? 360 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 1: Like, at this point we do the show today, we 361 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 1: have to worry about the show right now, we do 362 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 1: the overnight show at this moment. Is there a bigger 363 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:58,399 Speaker 1: pretender than the Philadelphia Eagles in terms of actually winning 364 00:19:58,440 --> 00:19:59,400 Speaker 1: anything the way they. 365 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:00,400 Speaker 3: Are right now? God? 366 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: All right, but let's focus in and it's good jumping 367 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,439 Speaker 1: off put Let's focus in on the quarterback though, and 368 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 1: let's discuss the question, what is Jalen Hurts play? What 369 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:13,199 Speaker 1: is the smell around Jalen Hurts like? Just break it 370 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:16,439 Speaker 1: down like that, right, what's Jalen Hurts play smell like? 371 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:20,439 Speaker 3: For the Eagles? So my thoughts on this, I've. 372 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:25,880 Speaker 1: Got John Madden gator and spicy margarita, and we will 373 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 1: combine all of these things together and we are going 374 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 1: to put the biscuit in the basket. So a, the 375 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:38,959 Speaker 1: smell surrounding Jalen Hurts is a pungent smell. 376 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 3: It's punging it up. It's so strong. It's actually peeling 377 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 3: the paint at the Link in Philadelphia. It's that bad. 378 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 3: The paint's peeling down. It smells so bad. 379 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: And this was a masterpiece of malfunction. And I'm happy 380 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 1: I got to see something I've never seen before that 381 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 1: we're not sure as happened before, and it happened on 382 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 1: a Monday night game here. But before we get to that, 383 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:07,679 Speaker 1: when I say that Jalen Hurts went out there and 384 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 1: had a masterpiece of malfunction, it was a performance so 385 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 1: historically awful it deserves its own wing at the Louver 386 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 1: across the Atlantic there. It just deserves its own spot 387 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,399 Speaker 1: in the museum. And forget Van goll and the da 388 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:28,199 Speaker 1: Vini and all the greats, Jalen Hurts in this Monday 389 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:33,479 Speaker 1: night game was Jackson Pollock. He was splattering turnovers in 390 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 1: the air every way right across the gridiron like a 391 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 1: man who was playing possessed by the spirit of abstract incompetence. 392 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 3: That was Jalen Hurts in this game. 393 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: And you saw the play in particular was interception, fumble, 394 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:58,439 Speaker 1: recovery and then fumble on the same play. John Madden, 395 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 1: if he were still alive, the ghost of John Madden 396 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: would call that the turnover. 397 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,480 Speaker 3: Turducan is what that was. That was a turnover to ducan. 398 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 1: You got the interception, you get the recovery, and then 399 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 1: you get the fumble. That's the Turducan of turnovers for 400 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts. Congratulations the rare double giveaway. The rare double 401 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 1: giveaway on one play. And the Nerds claim that their 402 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: data goes back to nineteen seventy Apparently nothing happened before 403 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:30,679 Speaker 1: nineteen seventy eight. Everything after nineteen seventy eight. They have 404 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:37,680 Speaker 1: no recorded history of anyone sucking that much on one 405 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 1: play like Jalen Hurts. And that's not quarterback play, mind you. 406 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 1: That's finger painting while on a dumbball ride at Disney World, 407 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: is what that was. Now Hertz, who has gone recently 408 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: from the afterglow of the Super Bowl MVP to the 409 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:59,719 Speaker 1: LVP as in Lost Value Player, that's Jalen Hurts right now, 410 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: the VP, the lost value player, and he's strapped right 411 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,919 Speaker 1: in that cockpit of the vomit comet, and he's on 412 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 1: a full Kma Kazi mission with that Philadelphia Eagles offense 413 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,400 Speaker 1: right now. And this is not just a one night 414 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:16,120 Speaker 1: stink bomb. 415 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:16,520 Speaker 3: As we know. 416 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:18,879 Speaker 1: We've been documenting here. We have a talk show to 417 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 1: do every day, and we come in here and the 418 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 1: Eagles are good for business because they won the Super Bowl. 419 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:26,919 Speaker 3: They're supposed to be good. 420 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 1: And they're underachieving and so it's always fun to talk 421 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 1: about teams like this, and they are really living up 422 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 1: to the suck mantra in Philadelphia. So the last five games, 423 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a good sample size. 424 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,720 Speaker 3: Is that fair? That's fair? 425 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: You're shaking your yeah, that's fair. So last five games, 426 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:48,480 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts has a seventy two point three passer rating. 427 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:53,160 Speaker 1: He's averaging six point four yards per pass, completing less 428 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:56,359 Speaker 1: than sixty percent of his passes despite running a rudimentary 429 00:23:56,400 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: Eagles offense. And he's got five interceptions now and three fumbles. 430 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,640 Speaker 1: And that's the way it's going for Jalen Hurts. And 431 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,199 Speaker 1: so that's not really a slump. Mind you, that's a 432 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 1: five alarm football funk, is what that is for Jalen Hurts. 433 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 1: And remember in the NFL, there is no rest for 434 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:19,120 Speaker 1: the wicked. So right back at it again for Jaialen Hurts, 435 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:25,159 Speaker 1: although the competition does soften going forward. Now page two, 436 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 1: let's talk about the leadership vacuum in Philadelphia here, and 437 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 1: there's a there's a theme to the Eagles as they 438 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:36,359 Speaker 1: continue to have their issues here and the question is 439 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 1: do you have any confidence as an outsider, do you 440 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:44,720 Speaker 1: have any confidence that Nick Sirianni can stop the bleeding 441 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:48,680 Speaker 1: of the birds? Do you have any confidence of that 442 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 1: that day you can get it done? 443 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 3: There? 444 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:56,920 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go nope on that. That's that's nope 445 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 1: for those of you who don't have to spell nope. 446 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:03,479 Speaker 1: Zero confidence. And I don't know how anyone could have commence. 447 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 1: The Eagles had a similar free fall. I think it 448 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 1: was twenty twenty three. They never got out of it, 449 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 1: they never were able to stop it, and Sirianni was 450 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: the head coach of that team. The Eagles right now 451 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 1: are like the USS Gerald R. 452 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:20,240 Speaker 3: Ford. 453 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:24,199 Speaker 1: They are an aircraft carrier and they're very difficult to 454 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:28,399 Speaker 1: turn around those aircraft carriers. It's like they're drifting sideways 455 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 1: in the Delaware River right now. And Nick Sirianni is 456 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 1: standing on deck on the aircraft carrier and he's waving 457 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 1: pom poms, and instead of grabbing the wheel and trying 458 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:40,919 Speaker 1: to turn, he's on, we're fine. Oh we're good. I 459 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:45,120 Speaker 1: love these guys. Ah, they're so good. Let's play rock 460 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,399 Speaker 1: paper sis is what do you say? Okay, why not? 461 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 1: We'll play rock papers? 462 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:49,879 Speaker 3: Fine? 463 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:54,120 Speaker 1: So you don't turn around the aircraft carrier by saying 464 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 1: let's go right into the headset. 465 00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 3: That doesn't work. 466 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 1: Here is Nick Sirianni on the for Interception game for 467 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurs. 468 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,160 Speaker 3: Let's hear what Sirianni had to say on this. 469 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,439 Speaker 10: This game is the ultimate team game. So it's all 470 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 10: it's never you know, it's never just on one person. Ultimately, 471 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 10: he always has the ball in his hands, and I 472 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 10: know he'll he'll wear a lot of that and own 473 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,160 Speaker 10: that and and I got to do a better job 474 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:22,400 Speaker 10: of helping him in those scenarios. Again, it's always it's 475 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:27,199 Speaker 10: never just on execution, right, It's it's always that we 476 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,360 Speaker 10: look at ourselves as coaches first, and we help them 477 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 10: be in position to succeed and then execute right. So 478 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,719 Speaker 10: obviously never want to turn the ball over. We've been 479 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:38,680 Speaker 10: pretty good at that, and tonight was a little uncharacteristic 480 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 10: of ourselves. 481 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 1: So there's a couple of things here that are classic 482 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:45,879 Speaker 1: deflection moves. Jalen hurts in the SoundBite we played, so 483 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,720 Speaker 1: I gotta watch the tape. That's a classic. I'm not 484 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,360 Speaker 1: answering the question. I'm gonna say, I'm gonna watch the tape. 485 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,679 Speaker 1: You'll never ask me about it again, or when you 486 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 1: ask me about it again, I'm going to say, well, 487 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 1: we've moved on to the next game. And then the 488 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 1: it's never on one guy from Sirianni, when yeah, it 489 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:07,120 Speaker 1: kind of is. That's why the quarterback gets paid ten 490 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:09,959 Speaker 1: times with the other players get it's on him. So 491 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 1: you can say whatever you want. It's a team game 492 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 1: and all that. Well, the team games are lost by individuals, 493 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 1: and Sirianni is a show pony. He is a show pony. 494 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 1: He's a sideline cheerleader who thrives when the wind is 495 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,879 Speaker 1: at his back, and when the wind changes and the 496 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 1: storm hits all of a sudden, the high tides and 497 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:36,199 Speaker 1: the birds they start leaking oil and all of a sudden, 498 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 1: Syrianni does a costume change and he becomes a gator. 499 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:43,880 Speaker 1: The inflator gator is Nick Sirianni. As he pumps air 500 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 1: into every minor issue, does not solve anything. And then 501 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 1: it becomes a full blown circus balloon. And that's the Eagles. 502 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:57,680 Speaker 1: And it says, literally blocking the highway there, it's blocking 503 00:27:57,760 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: Broad Street there in Philadelphia. 504 00:27:59,240 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 3: It's a mess. 505 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 1: And so Jalen Hurts, who looked like a man whose 506 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:05,359 Speaker 1: football soul. 507 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 8: Had been mugged. 508 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 1: He was numb as a bug. And just the whole 509 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,160 Speaker 1: thing is like, what is going on here? Passes were 510 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,160 Speaker 1: being tipped, they were just a little bit off, and 511 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 1: that's the difference between good and bad, success and failure. 512 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:25,159 Speaker 1: And so you've got the AJ Brown situation where he 513 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 1: had a bunch of yards, but yet the underlying condition 514 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:32,720 Speaker 1: is still alive. They're not singing from the same song sheet, 515 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts and AJ Brown. As you look at it, 516 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: the coughing is still there. As thirteen targets and AJ 517 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 1: Brown had six catches. There was a key drop in 518 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, down in the end zone in a 519 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 1: forty six percent catch rate, which doesn't appear to be 520 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 1: very good. It screams miscommunication for the Philadelphia Eagles, and 521 00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: there's obviously a lot of frustration with a little dash, 522 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 1: just a little dash of diva sprinkles on top at 523 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 1: this point. So the schedule, if there is a positive, 524 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 1: if you want me to be Benny Brightside, the positive 525 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 1: here is the schedule is cotton candy like the Eagles. 526 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 1: Even though the Eagles are trash right now, they still 527 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 1: should win three of their final four games to close 528 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 1: the regular season. Is anyone want to push back on that? 529 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 1: Have you seen who they play? The Raiders? The Raiders 530 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 1: are up next in Philadelphia. The Raiders have already given up. 531 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 1: They're a bunch of quitters. They've got Geno Smith. That 532 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 1: tells you they're not trying to win. When you have 533 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 1: Geno Smith, you are trying not to win football games. 534 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 1: You're just trying to cover. And Pete did cover the spread. 535 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 1: Goodship by him. They do have to play the Bills, 536 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 1: that's in Buffalo. That'll be a loss. But then you 537 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 1: also have two games home and home with the Washington Commandos. 538 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: So they appear to quit or have quit the way 539 00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:58,480 Speaker 1: they played against the Minnesota Vikings. 540 00:29:58,600 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 3: So that's what's up ahead. 541 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 1: However, right now, the Eagles, they don't need cupcakes is 542 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: what they need. Competence is what they they need here. 543 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 1: And so even if you beat up on the Raiders 544 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:13,040 Speaker 1: and the Commanders a couple of times, you're not battle 545 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 1: tested when you eventually play a better team. And so 546 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 1: Nick Sirianni's not exactly stopping them bleeding here, and if anything, 547 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 1: he's picking at the gab. Now what's going to be 548 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:25,720 Speaker 1: interesting is this was the kind of game and as 549 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,800 Speaker 1: we were going through it, there's some chatter in the 550 00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 1: press box like that somebody's gonna get fired. Now I'm 551 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 1: not saying Sirianne's gonna get fired, but this is the 552 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 1: kind of a performance when you know and everyone's watching 553 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 1: your offense and people are questioning whether or not you 554 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 1: should have demoted the offensive coordinator. This is the kind 555 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 1: of game that gets Kevin Patulo sacrificed and whacked by 556 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,520 Speaker 1: the Eagles. Like that's the kind of game where he 557 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 1: will either be demoted or just removed from the coaching room. 558 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 1: So stay tuned on that. Now. Last word on the 559 00:30:55,880 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 1: Charger side of things, show me your lightning bolt. Good 560 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 1: looking uniforms by the Chargers, right, They dressed for success. 561 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 1: They had that electric blue on on the Monday night. 562 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: But can Jim Harbaugh. Can Jim Harbaugh now exhale with 563 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 1: the Chargers getting the overtime win over the reigning champions 564 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 1: of the NFL. So the answer to this is no, 565 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 1: It is no on this one, and not even close. 566 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 1: I'm shaking my head now. 567 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 3: No. 568 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 1: Just for those of you who can watch on the YouTube, 569 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,320 Speaker 1: we have Ben Mather Show on YouTube. We're actually streaming 570 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:34,440 Speaker 1: the monologue. 571 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:36,720 Speaker 3: So I'm shaking my head. No, here's why I'm shaking 572 00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 3: my head. No, all right. In fact, I'm shaking my head. 573 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna shake my head so much i probably need 574 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 1: a chiropractor. No no, no, no, no, no, no no no, no, no, no, no, 575 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 1: like just like that. And here's why this was an 576 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 1: ugly duckling win. It is an ugly duckling win. The offense. 577 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:58,400 Speaker 1: The defense was great, I say great, but the Eagles. 578 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 1: The Eagles had their own issu. But here's the deal. 579 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 1: The offensive display here, this was a capital you ugly 580 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: is what it was. You had, and you underline it, 581 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:12,480 Speaker 1: you can highlight it however you want. To put a 582 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 1: spectacle around it, and you put on a billboard if 583 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: you want, on the four ROH five. Take one of 584 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 1: those ambulance chasing lawyer billboards off the four H five 585 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 1: and put that up there. But depending on dicker, the kicker, 586 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 1: the idiot kicker for five field goals. And this is 587 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 1: we always say the same thing with the Cowboys. It's 588 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 1: a blessing and a curse to have a great kicker. 589 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 1: Cowboys and Chargers have great kickers. It's a blessing and 590 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 1: a curse because you depend on the kicker and you 591 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 1: don't win big games with field goals. 592 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 3: You don't. This a regular season game, you won it. Congratulations. 593 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 1: However, normally, when you get five turnovers, am I not 594 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 1: wrong in saying you should win that game by thirty points? 595 00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 1: If you get five turnovers, you're at home, You put 596 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:57,880 Speaker 1: your feet up, you grab a spicy margarita, and you 597 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 1: enjoyed garbage time, and you play as on the sidelines. 598 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 3: That was not what happened here. They were not on 599 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 3: some kind of Royal Caribbean cruise. 600 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 1: They were not not the bolt the Chargers who had 601 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 1: turned Jalen Hurts, and Jalen was very generous. It's the 602 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 1: season of giving, and Jalen Hurts his generosity was generosity 603 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 1: machine here for the Philadelphia Eagles. 604 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 3: And they managed to get. 605 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 1: If my math is correct, I believe six points off 606 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 1: five turnovers by the Eagles. They only monetized those into 607 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:31,680 Speaker 1: six points. Two field goals. That's all they got off 608 00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 1: five turnovers. Now they did get the technically the last 609 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:38,560 Speaker 1: one they sealed the game because that ended the game, 610 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 1: the final interception, But the other four they only got 611 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 1: six points out of it, a couple of field goals. 612 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:49,600 Speaker 3: And this was the type of game that you have 613 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 3: to go back in time. This was a. 614 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 1: Super duper football follies VHS tape, the kind your uncle 615 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:02,760 Speaker 1: got at the gas station in like ninety three is 616 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 1: what this was. And Justin Herbert, he's playing hurt. 617 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:07,760 Speaker 3: They didn't touch. 618 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: They didn't talk about that at all on the broadcast, 619 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 1: didn't they No, Justin Herbert, who looked like he was 620 00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 1: trying to throw a piano on every drop back. Now 621 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,759 Speaker 1: the Eagles got to him a fair amount. And this 622 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:24,120 Speaker 1: is the same thing I say all the time. Just 623 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 1: you're gonna repeat yourself again, I know, yeah, say it 624 00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 1: about CJ. Stroud Gino Smith. I'm gonna say it about 625 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:37,759 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert. Get rid of the damn ball, okay, rather 626 00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 1: a tat tat, get rid of the ball, dummy, And 627 00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:45,240 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert kept holding onto the ball, holding on the ball, 628 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:46,839 Speaker 1: holding on the ball. 629 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 3: What are you doing? Just get rid of it and 630 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:51,879 Speaker 3: throw it away, my god. 631 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:55,200 Speaker 1: And he had two fumbles lost, one of them an 632 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:59,400 Speaker 1: interception under fifty percent. He's the Golden child. Every broadcaster 633 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:03,839 Speaker 1: licks this, guys toes Justin Herbert, I don't see it. 634 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:08,360 Speaker 1: He was holding on the ball like was a family heirloom. Dude, 635 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:11,800 Speaker 1: It's just a duke. Get rid of the duke. The 636 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,320 Speaker 1: Chargers had only twohundred seventy five yards of offense in 637 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 1: this game. They had sixteen first downs, two of those 638 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:22,040 Speaker 1: via penalty by the Philadelphia Eagles. So you look ahead 639 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 1: now that you check the schedule, they play at Kansas City. 640 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 1: Kansas City's a lightweight this year, so you play at Arrowhead, 641 00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 1: then you've got at Dallas, the Texans. 642 00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,800 Speaker 3: In La or in Inglewood, and then at Denver. 643 00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 1: That is what's left four games left in the regular 644 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 1: season for the Chargers at this point. So that's not 645 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 1: a stretch round. That's a rocky road. Arrowhead not easy 646 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 1: to play at. Dallas has some good offense, although they're 647 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:49,239 Speaker 1: not a complete team. 648 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 3: And so that's that's where we are. 649 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 1: That's rocky road for Jim Harbaugh, and so you can't 650 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 1: excel plus hardbass. He's not like that. He doesn't exhale 651 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 1: about anything. He's always got to stick up his talks, 652 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,040 Speaker 1: doesn't he That's what he looks like. It's one of 653 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 1: those people and he can barely inhale. 654 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:07,960 Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maller 655 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 2: Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
