Tom ret lewis here with 3 00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:12,240 Speaker 1: our former NFL scouts lead Draft Aniels, Daniel Jeremiah, Bucky Brooks, 4 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:15,360 Speaker 1: and guys. We love winners, and we now have a 5 00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:18,919 Speaker 1: winner with all thirty two teams. Here to our last 6 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:21,600 Speaker 1: season's recurring guests on Path to the Draft, a monra 7 00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:26,280 Speaker 1: st Brown getting the Detroit Lions their first win. We'll 8 00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:28,880 Speaker 1: get into that here for you on this edition of 9 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 1: Move the Sticks. The guys, when you say we begin 10 00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:34,760 Speaker 1: with our Big three, let's go do every Monday, Let's 11 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: start here with the Ravens and the Steelers. This was 12 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,279 Speaker 1: a ten three ball game entering the fourth quarter. Then 13 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:41,239 Speaker 1: we saw a combined twenty six point scored in the 14 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 1: final fourteen minutes by both teams, including a clutch t 15 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:46,320 Speaker 1: D drive and two point conversion to take the lead 16 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,519 Speaker 1: for Pittsburgh. And then the Ravens get all the way 17 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 1: back down, get the touchdown, but not the two points 18 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 1: for the win. John Harbaugh now on that decision, trying 19 00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:58,920 Speaker 1: to win the game right here, we were pretty much 20 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:04,880 Speaker 1: out of corner up warm time. So anything that exactly 21 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 1: what you want from that play. John is not executing 22 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: at under that he's Football's Yeah, look, I think you 23 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 1: understand John Harbaugh's rationale there. You're short on bodies there, 24 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: you want an opportunity to go win the game, and 25 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:27,680 Speaker 1: I have to take this thing into overtime. I think 26 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 1: we get it. Marlin humph Marlin Humphrey, we're finding out 27 00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 1: for me and Rap and port NFL Network insider likely 28 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 1: torn pack which would put him out for the rest 29 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,399 Speaker 1: of the season. This for a team has already been 30 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,680 Speaker 1: without Marcus Peters the entire way. H d J. What 31 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:41,559 Speaker 1: do you think of the decision to go for two there? Well, 32 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,400 Speaker 1: not knowing the injury situation at the time, my thought was, Okay, 33 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: I don't I don't love this decision because I feel 34 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 1: like Baltimore has a better team. If I have the 35 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: better team, I'm okay extending the game. Um, but when 36 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 1: you find out there down on corners, I totally get 37 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: what John Harbaugh was saying there. So I like the 38 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: aggressiveness in that situation, and he met dal Pacino game 39 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: aventches there, let's go. There you go. That's a great 40 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: example of it. Yeah, I mean, I think this kind 41 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 1: of piss their calling card. This is what they do. 42 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: They ultra regress that they go for it on fourth down. 43 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,279 Speaker 1: They're not afraid to go for it on two point situations, 44 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: and so it's a matter of they just didn't execute 45 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: the play. The pressure t J. Watt made Lamar Jackson 46 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: kind of thwart sideways, so it wasn't complete and it's 47 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: one of those things where you live with it, and 48 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: they obviously have comfortable living with these situations. I want 49 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: to touch there on that t. J. Watt situation because 50 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 1: that wasn't the only time that he was completely unblocked 51 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: on a crucial play in this game. You want to 52 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:34,799 Speaker 1: go back to the first quarter. In fact, the red 53 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,640 Speaker 1: zone interception for Lamar. I mean, he's just just leaving 54 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: one of the best players in all football wide open 55 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 1: and then Lamar kind of drifts right into him there 56 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: and then throws the interception on a crucial red zone opportunity. 57 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,240 Speaker 1: Essentially the same thing happens here on the two point conversion. 58 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: I mean t J. Watts selling out. Credit to him 59 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: for putting that pressure on. I think Lamar did a 60 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,679 Speaker 1: great job actually getting the ball out of his hands there, 61 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 1: but that forced the incompletion in the game. Look, not 62 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: pretending to know everything that went into those play calls 63 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: and protections that let t J. Watt uh free their DJ. 64 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 1: But look for a guy who's got sixteen sacks this year, 65 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: I'd want to count for him. Yeah, you know you 66 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: always here in past protection, right big on Big, we 67 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,239 Speaker 1: want to if we're gonna cut somebody loose, let's cut 68 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: the overload blitzer that that third level defender loose and 69 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 1: let the mare take his chances. I'm not gonna cut 70 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: loose the best pass rusher in the NFL right now. 71 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 1: So they did that a couple of times, but I'm 72 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: telling you, watch this game, it wasn't just those plays. 73 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 1: Even when they were dedicating multiple bodies to t J. Watt, 74 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,079 Speaker 1: he found a way to have an impact. He's got 75 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: the unique combination of all the athletic skills. He's talking 76 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: about the burst, the bend, the power, all those things. 77 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: But to me, it's the instincts, the instincts that made 78 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: his brother such a dominant player. He has those same 79 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: football instincts. It's off the charts. Look, he is an 80 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: Austin charts player. But I want to take some of 81 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 1: this to the Baltimore Raisins because I worry about their offense. 82 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: I think we've seen the best and we can see 83 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: from the Baltimore Ravens when it comes to their offense, 84 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: the injuries and the design. I just think that not 85 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: only that people have caught up to would I don't 86 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: know if they have enough firepower to really threaten people 87 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: like they had in the past. And so Lamar Jackson 88 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: has been up and down. Has been a bit of 89 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: a roller coaster for him, not only as they passed, 90 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: but also as a runner. And then I look at 91 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: their backfield. They don't have a dynamic weapon in the backfield. 92 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 1: So I just don't know. As we get down the 93 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 1: stretch and they start playing these meautiful games, I don't 94 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: know how they're going to score points because I don't 95 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 1: know if to have any more playmakers to be able 96 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: to do it. Now you look at their offense, this 97 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 1: is not something that's new. I mean that would scored 98 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 1: twenty plus points of five of the last six games. 99 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: So this is this is something that was masked a 100 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: little bit by winning. That's sometimes you can get little 101 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: to sleep a little bit. These problems have been there 102 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 1: for well over a month now, and I mean this 103 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 1: is a team that was the number one seed in 104 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: the a f C. It feels unlikely at this point, 105 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: based on what we've seen from Lamar Jackson, probably with 106 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: three of his worst games of the season on the 107 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks, that they're not going to finish 108 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,919 Speaker 1: this season as the number one seed in the a 109 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,919 Speaker 1: f C. All right, let's move on a game number 110 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 1: two here, and that is the Chargers in the Bengals. DJ, 111 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: you were there in Cincinnati. Turnovers and explosives doomed. The 112 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: day for Cincinnati started from the jump. Justin Herbert all 113 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:04,239 Speaker 1: three of his TV passes in the first twenty minutes 114 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 1: of the game. Third straight contest. Her Ball went for 115 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: three plus with two or more touchdowns. Chargers defense also 116 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,039 Speaker 1: dominating for stretches of this game six sacks and six 117 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:18,919 Speaker 1: points here with Tavon Campbell the final man. It was 118 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 1: great to see Justin Herbert unleashing some especially there early 119 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: in the first half. Yeah, I said there in the broadcast, 120 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 1: I thought this was kind of like attack mode for 121 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert and for this Chargers offense. It was different 122 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: than what we've seen in previous weeks. And I tried 123 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: telling people that, look, the reason why they haven't been 124 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 1: pushing the ball vertically, it's not just the offense. Their 125 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: down offensive lineman. Getting Matt Filer back in this game 126 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,159 Speaker 1: was big. Even with that, you have the four sacks 127 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 1: that they take. I think the charges got to the 128 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: point we're like, okay, we're okay with some of the 129 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: negatives that might come with this, but the positives are 130 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 1: gonna far outset it. So they hit Mike Williams a 131 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: bunch of deep shots down the field. Jalen guit And 132 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: finally got involved down the field, but it was an 133 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,159 Speaker 1: aggressive approach. You live with some of the sacks. So 134 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 1: just real quick going back to last year's moved the 135 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 1: sticks on Monday's remember our takeaway podcast, right, remember our 136 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 1: cut lines. I'm just curious, Bucky, how many times do 137 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 1: you think DJ said Justin Herbert was dealing. It was 138 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:11,839 Speaker 1: a couple of times. But by the way, I do 139 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 1: want to add, it wasn't just their offense, and this 140 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: one was a turnover. Derwin James was the best player 141 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 1: on the field when you watch all the different things 142 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:22,840 Speaker 1: he does. Start explosive um and then I thought Channon 143 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: Aolso on the outside on the opposite side of Joey Bosa, 144 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 1: who was out early in this game. I thought Chenna 145 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 1: had maybe his best game as a pro. Two sacks. 146 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 1: You see the sack, forced fumble, fumble recovery early in 147 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 1: this one. He stepped up in a big way. And 148 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 1: that's watching it. I know you were there, but watching it, 149 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: I felt like the Bengals invited the charges to the 150 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 1: holiday part and they were just giving them gifts. They 151 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: want to make sure that they had the gifts and 152 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: everyone was happy for giveaways. Uh three by Joe Birds 153 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: who interceptions he had a pombo, then Joe Mixing gave 154 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: up one, and so it was just problematic. You just 155 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 1: can't win games when you have turnovers, and the amount 156 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 1: of turnovers and the miscuse that they had in protection 157 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: really allowed the Chart just kind of have the game 158 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 1: on their terms. And even though they made a furious 159 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 1: come back to kind of bring it close, they couldn't 160 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: get over to hump because of the giveaways. And so 161 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: maybe it's just holiday season. Is that giveaway from Jamaar 162 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 1: Chase on what would have been a touchdown in the 163 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: first hit ball that is a sure fire touchdown in 164 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: my right Yeah, it was a perfect ball and there 165 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: was tons of separation there. Everything said that was a 166 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: touchdown at worst. You're like, he drops the football. Actually 167 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: it was work and then what do the Chargers do 168 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 1: with it? Right down and score? That's a twelve point swing. 169 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: So look, this is a Bengals team, and I know 170 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 1: we kind of talked about some of these cliches a 171 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: little bit with teams that, you know, I have not 172 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 1: had a taste of winning much recently that they're still 173 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: trying to figure out how to win consistently. They've won 174 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 1: some games and some big games this year, and then 175 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: they've had some conkers. Right, they went blew out the Lines, 176 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: then blew out the Ravens and lost to the Jets, right, 177 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: and then you know they come out of the by 178 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: they win too in a row, and now in a 179 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: game against a good team and the Chargers, you know, 180 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: you just absolutely fall flat. So they need to figure 181 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: out how to deal with winning in addition to how 182 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 1: to deal with adversity. Need to make sure you get 183 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: Burrows pinky right too. I mean, you could tell watch 184 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: on the side that's a tough dude right there. And 185 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow that tried to tough that out. I mean 186 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 1: that's look. I mean, I got the mallet finger over here. 187 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: We got finger injuries with quarterbacks all over the place 188 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: going on. Hope Joe Burrow gets back and gets better. 189 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 1: Uh here, real quick, let's move on to Game number 190 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 1: three was a Sunday nighter in Kansas City. The Chiefs 191 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 1: win their fifth straight game on a Sunday night over 192 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 1: the Broncos. They do it with defense, yes, and they 193 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 1: had to. Patrick Mahomes through for just passer rating a 194 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: fifty seven, which is the lowest of his esteemed career 195 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 1: and his seventh game with a sub ninety passer rating 196 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:37,959 Speaker 1: this season. Yet, with the twenty two to nine win, 197 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: the Chiefs remain in first place in the a f 198 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: C West and they're doing it scoring less than twenty 199 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 1: five points in six straight home games. So thank goodness 200 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,559 Speaker 1: for their defense. DJ. Yeah, it's incredible what they're doing 201 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,559 Speaker 1: up front. I think Chris Jones gets a lot of attention. 202 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,199 Speaker 1: He's he's their best defense player, is phenomenal. But there's 203 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 1: more than just Chris Jones on this front. You see 204 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 1: four show up when you're watching the tape. You see 205 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 1: Frank Clark flashing his ability to generate pressure back there. 206 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 1: You look at the second level, Nick Bolton's had a 207 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 1: phenomenal rookie campaign. His name hasn't been quite mentioned with 208 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 1: some of these other guys, but he's been outstanding right there, 209 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 1: he's been He's been outstanding. So this, this whole front 210 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: seven is playing an extremely high level. For the Chiefs. 211 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,719 Speaker 1: You're playing at a very high level, and it's to 212 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 1: communication skills that there displaying that allowing them to have success. 213 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: But I think it's beyond that. I think the one 214 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: thing that you look for for the Chiefs is how 215 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 1: Andy Reid has been able to shift his mindset and 216 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: go to a little more of a conservative slant. Rather 217 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:35,680 Speaker 1: than put the ball in the hands of Pat Mahomes 218 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 1: and say, hey, go win it, they're taking it out 219 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:39,679 Speaker 1: in their trust, in their defense to be able to 220 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 1: get it done, and over the last five games they've 221 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,320 Speaker 1: been able to do so. So as this team eventually 222 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 1: hits their stride on offense, this is a more dangerous 223 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: team because defensively they can keep the store down and 224 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,719 Speaker 1: they don't have to play that reckless style of ball 225 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: that we've seen from there for a tablast couple years. 226 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: Look if you're the Denver Broncos. I think there's a 227 00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,839 Speaker 1: lot to like with your team moving forward. You've got 228 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:05,199 Speaker 1: some young players really contributing. I mean Javonte Williams right 229 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: running and running and receiving. Mean, my goodness, I mean 230 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 1: the most violent runner I feel like I've seen since 231 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson was in his heyday. I mean, just absolutely 232 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 1: braces tackles and then with Quinn Miners falling all over 233 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:17,679 Speaker 1: the place taking guys out. That was fun to watch. 234 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: What was not so much fun to watch was the 235 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: offensive aerial attack with Teddy Bridgewater. Look, it kind of 236 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:28,079 Speaker 1: feels like we might be reaching that ceiling with him 237 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 1: as the quarterback, which makes me wonder, like DJ, does 238 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,199 Speaker 1: it come down to quarterback play here for the Broncos 239 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: or they offensively flawed in other areas because there seems 240 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 1: like there's a lot of explosive players on the perimeter. 241 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 1: Is it time to give Drew lock the luck? Well, 242 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,560 Speaker 1: I don't know that. They're very confident and Drew Lock 243 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: up there, so if you don't have the fact that 244 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: he's not playing tells me everything. I don't think that 245 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:50,319 Speaker 1: change is coming. I think they're feeling like their formula 246 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: as we talked about kind of know your formula, it's 247 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 1: going to be relying on that defense and trying not 248 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: to have mistakes at the quarterback position. It's one thing 249 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: when he's missing big play opportunities and you're not explosive 250 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: as nothing, when you're turning the football over. Yeah, I 251 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: mean that's a big thing. One of the advantages that 252 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:05,840 Speaker 1: they thought they would give with teddy Bridge Waters. They 253 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 1: would get a better management, a better manager, so they 254 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: would take care of the ball to give their defense 255 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: a chance. He has turned it over. I don't think 256 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 1: it's quite tired for Drew Lock because I felt like 257 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 1: if they believe the Drew Lock, he would already have 258 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 1: the job. And so I think this is a situation 259 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 1: where the teddy Bridge Water plays better or they have 260 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 1: to live with the results, and that could mean new 261 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 1: people in place. Yeah, real quick, going back to the Chiefs, 262 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 1: we are set up for two weeks from now, a 263 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,679 Speaker 1: Thursday night clash right across the street. It's so far 264 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: with the charge ones and that could be all them 265 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: on a Thursday night. Are gonna be fun. One let's 266 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: do it and look just to button up on the 267 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs Teddy Bridgewater was over on deep balls 268 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 1: in this game, and that has been one of the 269 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: key pieces to the to the Chiefs defense. They were 270 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 1: allowing a passer rating of thirty nine on downfield balls 271 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 1: since week nine. But by the way, Marshawn Lynch would 272 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: like a word about the most violent runner thing going back, 273 00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: But go ahead and have some skittles. Well, this is 274 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 1: a tale of the eights, the sevens, and the sixes 275 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 1: in the a f C playoff picture. You've got the 276 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: division leaders all with eight wins. You've got the three 277 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,679 Speaker 1: wild card teams all with seven wins, and then you've 278 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:11,959 Speaker 1: got the teams that are in the hunt on the 279 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: outside looking in right now with either six wins or 280 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 1: six losses or both. Essentially, how we separate this thing? 281 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,200 Speaker 1: And as we come back here on this Monday edition 282 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: of Move the Stakes for our Elite eight, Red Louis 283 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: standing of Jeremiah Bucky Brooks back here with you, we 284 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 1: are talking about those teams on the outside looking into 285 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 1: the a f C playoff picture. Get to the NFC 286 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:32,719 Speaker 1: here in a moment, and Bucky, we gotta start with 287 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts. Oh get a dub this week? Yeah, 288 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:36,560 Speaker 1: they get a dub, and they get a dub behind 289 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor, and Jonathan Taylor has really helped them recreate 290 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 1: their identity on offense. They can run the football, they 291 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:45,680 Speaker 1: can play old school smash mouth football and allow him 292 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: to really set the table for Carson Wentz. But understand this, 293 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz is also playing really really well for them, 294 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: and his efficient play at quarterback because he's sugmitted supplemented 295 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:58,679 Speaker 1: by the running game, has allowed the Coals to be 296 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,959 Speaker 1: able to dictate the terms. But the defense also playing 297 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 1: well well. Speaking of efficient play at quarterback, how about 298 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: two of down adultures are definitely in this conversation. This 299 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: is a team with a quarterback to take care of 300 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: the football. He's getting the ball in his hands quickly. 301 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 1: R P O City. I'd say it was the best 302 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:16,559 Speaker 1: r PO quarterback I'd ever evaluated. Come out of college. 303 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 1: He looked like a blackjack dealer. The ball just ride 304 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: the back boom ball she was dealing. Jalen Waddle has 305 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 1: been that guy for him. He goes back to Alabama, 306 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,839 Speaker 1: there's a comfort level, not the over the top threat 307 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: that he was in college. I don't know that they 308 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 1: can protect long enough to get that accomplished. They've adjusted accordingly. 309 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: And the other Jalen on the other side, Jalen Phillips 310 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,959 Speaker 1: two more sacks. He's having a phenomenal rookie season. Javon 311 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 1: Holland as well. It's a good rookie group. Credit to 312 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: those guys. I mean, we gave them some some you know, 313 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: critique early in the season for the way those but 314 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,079 Speaker 1: they've kind of come along here. Now I'm gonna move 315 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 1: on to the Denver Broncos, who are on the outside 316 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 1: looking in right now twall seed in the a f 317 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: C after this loss to the Chiefs. Look, if we 318 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 1: can find a way to get like Quinn Miners more involved, 319 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe we could see some more wins 320 00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: pile up the way that he's piling up bodies so 321 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 1: when he's out there in the run game just mashing dudes. Uh. Look, 322 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: but right now, they're gonna find a way to be 323 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 1: more explosive on offense if they want to find themselves 324 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: in the playoff picture when it's all said and done. 325 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 1: What you got, Buck, Look, I'm gonna go with to 326 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 1: the Las Vegas Raiders, and the Raiders are a team 327 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 1: that can get into the mix, but they have to 328 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: play better, and a lot of it depends on Derek Carr. 329 00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 1: Which Derek Carr shows up on a weekly basis often 330 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 1: determines whether the Raiders win or lose. When good Derek 331 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 1: Carr shows up, they win games. They can throw it 332 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: all over the yard, they can score points. When bad 333 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: Derek Carr shows up, they're going to take als because 334 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 1: the turnovers to inconsistency, the lack of accuracy hurst him 335 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 1: and prevents him from saying in the mix when it 336 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 1: comes to these tough games. Buck, this is the type 337 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 1: of this program. I've got to talk about the Browns. 338 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: I famously a monthly or so ago when the Browns 339 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 1: talked about how talented this team was, and they've done 340 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: nothing but punched me in the stomach. But right now, 341 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: this is a big one. They're coming off a bye. 342 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 1: You get the Baltimore Ravens. This is a Ravens team. 343 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 1: Now I'm gonna be without Marlon Humphrey. You have Marcus Peters, 344 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 1: no Eliot. Their whole backfield is just in shambles. Baker Mayfield, 345 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 1: this is yours, the Baker game. You've got a chance 346 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 1: to rest. Get this body as healthy as it can be. 347 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 1: This needs to be his kind of breakout game to 348 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 1: get me out of this funk that I'm then for 349 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 1: having backed this football team over a month ago. So 350 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 1: we got Beatonio and Teller paid. Does this game get 351 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 1: Baker paid? Is this the one that's maybe there is 352 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 1: the Baker games? I would sure like it because that 353 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: has been major egg on my face? Yeah, no kidding. 354 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 1: All right, let's move on to the NFC, where, look, 355 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 1: the teams at the top of the conference have a 356 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 1: bit more separation, right. You've got the team of the 357 00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: best record in the NFL with Cardinals intends. Yeah, these 358 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 1: are the nine intense, okay. And then you got the 359 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 1: fives over there in the in the hunt category with 360 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: the Eagles, the Vikings, the Panthers, Falcons, and Saint's all 361 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: still in the hunt. And guys, I'm gonna start with 362 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings, who, of course come off the heartbreaking 363 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 1: loss to the Detroit Lions. Here's the deal. They're running 364 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: out of blood pressure mediccation at pharmacies across the Twins 365 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 1: Twin cities. They have played. Eleven of their twelve games 366 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: have been one score games. Their seven losses have come 367 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: by a combined total of twenty eight points at average 368 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 1: margin of defeat four points. That is the lowest in football. 369 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 1: That means this team has an opportunity. Just capitalize on 370 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 1: those opportunities more so than we've seen in these first 371 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: twelve games. And this team could be in the mix 372 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 1: of Dalvin cookback. Adam Feelings now got a high ankle sprain, 373 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 1: so hopefully you get him back here in a couple 374 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 1: of weeks. But this is a talented team. They gotta 375 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 1: be better. Yeah, very sounded team. They need to make 376 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: sure they get back to run to the football. I'll 377 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 1: talk about a team that is not as talented as 378 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: Minnesota ke has, but they have a chance. About Atlanta Falcons. 379 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 1: The Atlanta Falcons have a chance because you have Matt 380 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: Ryan uh former m VP candidate. But then this guy 381 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 1: Cordero Patterson has a merged as to do it all 382 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 1: playmaker for them on offense. He can run it, he 383 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 1: can catch it, put him in the kicking game, he 384 00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:59,560 Speaker 1: can make it happen as he goes, so's goes to Falcons, 385 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 1: they eat him to be a major factor, and if 386 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: he is, they have a chance. What a what a 387 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,679 Speaker 1: league that the Falcons team is in the conversation for 388 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 1: the postseason, man, there's still look, I'm gonna go. I'm 389 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 1: gonna go to a different bird I think has a 390 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 1: better shot, and that's the Philadelphia Eagles, largely because of 391 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: the vision that they're in and I think they do 392 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 1: have some identity. I think also you need to realize 393 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 1: sometimes you trade a player not because you're necessarily down 394 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 1: on a player like zach Ertz, but because you want 395 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 1: to create more opportunity for someone at the same position. 396 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,120 Speaker 1: And Dallas Goddard has run with it. He has got 397 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 1: a chance to be really one of the two or 398 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 1: three best tight ends in the NFL. He's a complete why. 399 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,400 Speaker 1: He can block in the run game. You can see 400 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: what he does after the catch. He can high point 401 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: the football, big catch radius, big game for him against 402 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 1: the Jets. I think he's gonna be big for them 403 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: coming down the stretch. Now who's playing quarterback? That's gonna 404 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 1: be interesting conversation. Gardner Minshew to maybe a perfect passer 405 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 1: rating in the first half. By the part of that, 406 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 1: my dad and I have a great relationship, but apparently 407 00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: it's not as good as I thought, because I've never 408 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 1: had that in had that kind of embraced. Gosh, I'm 409 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: not sure I have either, and that was that was special. 410 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 1: I've seeing I've seeing guys enjoy the moment right and 411 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,920 Speaker 1: enjoy like the fact that this is a game and 412 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 1: we all love playing it, we love launched it, we 413 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 1: love talking about it. Good for you, Gardner Minshew in 414 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles. Oh man, what a six game stretch 415 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,920 Speaker 1: it's been for Mac Jones in the Patriots, all wins, 416 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,640 Speaker 1: of course, And when you compare Mac to his counterpart 417 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 1: tonight on Monday Night Football, as the Patriots travel to 418 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,440 Speaker 1: Orchard Park to take on the Bills, Man, Josh Allen 419 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 1: and the Bills have had some inconsistencies here. All the 420 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,640 Speaker 1: while Mac Jones gaining steam nine touchdowns just two interceptions 421 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: in that span, Josh Allen has thrown four times as 422 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:46,159 Speaker 1: many interceptions and going up against Mr Interception j C. 423 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 1: Jackson on the other side for Josh Allen in a 424 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 1: really good Patriots defense, DJ is a big game for 425 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:54,159 Speaker 1: Josh Allen. It's a huge game for Josh Allen. Fortunately 426 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 1: for Josh, I think he's got some confidence against Bill 427 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,640 Speaker 1: Belichick that not many young quarterbacks have because the success 428 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: they had last year and it was full attack mo 429 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 1: with Brian day Ball. They were aggressive, especially in that 430 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: second meaning last year, I think you see them kind 431 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,399 Speaker 1: of empty the chamber. In this one, you're gonna see 432 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 1: Josh Allen involved in the running game. I believe in this. 433 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: When he sees opportunities, he's going to be aggressive. It 434 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 1: just feels to me like this is kind of a 435 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:18,880 Speaker 1: push all your chips in type moment for Josh Allen. 436 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:20,919 Speaker 1: I expect him play very well tonight. You know, I 437 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 1: think the Buffalo Bills have to go all in. They 438 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 1: have to put it all on number seventeen Showlders because 439 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: he is their primary playmaker. But hold on, m j 440 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 1: ten may have something to say he walked out on 441 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 1: draft night, but I feel like mac Jones has enough 442 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: swaging to take and embrace this moment. And this may 443 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: be the opportunity for the newly Pages to flip the script. 444 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 1: We've seen it. We always talked about their game plans, 445 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 1: but they operate like this a snowflake. So they've been run, run, run, run, 446 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,159 Speaker 1: run during the six game street this might be the 447 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 1: night that they unleashed mac Jones and let him throw 448 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 1: it all over the yards, spread and shred. You don't 449 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 1: have to, David White. Maybe, just maybe we get a 450 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,360 Speaker 1: chance to appreciate what m J. Ten has been able 451 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:03,640 Speaker 1: to do. Little Mimual Nelson, age Law or Jacobe Myers 452 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 1: up the tight ends a little bit. Let's start pushing it, doubt, Man, 453 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,640 Speaker 1: I'm signed me up for this game. Let's go. We're 454 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:11,880 Speaker 1: fired up. Look, I think the one thing that I'm 455 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 1: interested in for the Bills offense Dawson Knox and his 456 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: availability tonight with that against the Patriots defense, and then 457 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: which run game really shows up if the weather becomes 458 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 1: an issue there is some weather concerns. They're on Orchard Park, 459 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 1: New York. Run game Like, I think you trust the 460 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,160 Speaker 1: run game of the Patriots a bit more. It's kind 461 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:30,919 Speaker 1: of been a mixed bag for the Bills. Don't know 462 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:32,639 Speaker 1: who you're gonna get. We had Zach Moss as the 463 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,200 Speaker 1: healthy scratch. Matt Brita has been coming on a little 464 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 1: bit lately. But man, I mean the Patriots are as 465 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 1: consistent as it comes with run games. Speaking of trust, though, 466 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 1: one of these defenses do you trust the most in 467 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:46,880 Speaker 1: this game? DJ? Well, I think the obvious one is you. 468 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 1: You kind of look at the Patriots point that they've played. 469 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 1: I expect the Bills to play well in this game. 470 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 1: I think they do. I think you've got veteran safeties. 471 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna do a nice job trying to 472 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: get inside the head of Mac Jones. And I think 473 00:20:57,840 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 1: when you think about Mac, when you're scouting for team 474 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 1: in kind of these cold weather cities, a lot of 475 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:05,160 Speaker 1: times you want a big, physical quarterback. As the weather 476 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 1: starts to change, start getting a lot of wind, all 477 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,880 Speaker 1: those things. Think about the guys that have had success 478 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,919 Speaker 1: in those environments. That's not really who he is. So 479 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 1: I'm anxious to see can they really push the ball 480 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: vertically down the field we get some weather in this game. Now, 481 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 1: this would be a gooming to look at, especially if 482 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,680 Speaker 1: you love defensive football, because Buffalo Bills, you talk about 483 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:26,160 Speaker 1: it the number one in yards allowed, but then the 484 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,679 Speaker 1: New England Pages are number one and points allowed and 485 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 1: the defense are contracting styles. I worry about the Buffalo 486 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 1: Bills without your Davis White. Can they play some of 487 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 1: the man coverage that they've been matching up with. But 488 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 1: the Pages they're just gonna do what they do now. 489 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,119 Speaker 1: Last time they tried to play a lot of zone. 490 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:42,200 Speaker 1: Josh Allen ate them up. I think they go back 491 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: to their customary man to man coverage. Lock them up. 492 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 1: They don't blitz much anyway. Keep someone spying on Josh 493 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 1: Allen and see if he can make tight window throws. 494 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 1: That is how they've typically done, That's how they operated 495 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 1: throughout the streak. I think we may see that all 496 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:58,479 Speaker 1: over j C. Jackson Stefon Diggs would be good. Good. 497 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: We're targeting j C. Jackson posing quarterbacks passer rating sub forty. 498 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: Watch out for that one. If you're Josh Allen here, Yeah, 499 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 1: look at the quarterbacks they've played. That's also true. Speaking 500 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 1: of quarterbacks, can you guys just pencil me in for 501 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 1: an A for Mac Jones tomorrow? Okay, because it's time 502 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 1: for the rookie report card DJ. What he got for 503 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 1: Zack Wilson, Zach Wilson. There was some encouragement here. There 504 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 1: was progress. I saw improvement. To me. I thought the 505 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,639 Speaker 1: things started to slow down. His feet were a lot 506 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 1: more quiet than they've been. Wasn't quite as busy. Now. 507 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 1: There's still a couple of layups. He missed one down 508 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 1: there in the red zone. You see this forced interception. 509 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 1: But I thought on the whole, the ball placement was 510 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 1: pretty good. If he had been helped out with a 511 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: couple of drops on fifty fifty balls, his stat line 512 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 1: would have looked much better. They've got issues on the 513 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 1: other side of them. What's that word at the bottom 514 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 1: there that first note? Yeah, I think didn't hope the 515 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 1: Jets fit. I know a lot of don't want to 516 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 1: hear this, but there is hope. When you watch this, 517 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 1: see the trend line, it's going in the right direction. Okay, Bucky, 518 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 1: sorry about this, But on the other side of the spectrum, 519 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:58,400 Speaker 1: look on the other side of the spect I'm gonna 520 00:22:58,400 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 1: do this for Trevor Lawrence. I do this in college. 521 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,360 Speaker 1: Couple of times I would say withdrawal, like I think 522 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 1: you should just withdraw and drop a cloud, because I 523 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: think somehow he needs to go and see if you 524 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,680 Speaker 1: can petition to withdraw from the situation right now because 525 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,639 Speaker 1: it hasn't going well for him. He needs help on 526 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:14,880 Speaker 1: the outside. And when he doesn't get that help, I'm 527 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 1: looking at him. He has to be better with the 528 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:19,400 Speaker 1: decision making and the accuracy, but it's really really hard 529 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 1: to him. I don't think he has the structure around 530 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 1: him to fill the maximize potential, and as a result, 531 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 1: he's floundering in the class. Because I remember my freshman 532 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 1: year going into my advisor and saying, I think I 533 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 1: need to drop this music appreciation class. She goes, Okay, 534 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:35,160 Speaker 1: well what's the reason. Well, I've never been, so that's 535 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 1: that's probably why I should drop it. Reports on Jacksonville 536 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 1: suggests that Trevor is showing up the class. But yeah, 537 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,959 Speaker 1: it's essentially like me versus finite math. We're gonna take 538 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 1: it three different times before we get it right. It 539 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 1: is time now for our scout stories. The Carolina Panthers 540 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:53,719 Speaker 1: have made a change. On there By week twenty eight 541 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:56,440 Speaker 1: games into his tenure as the Panther's offensive coordinator, Carolina 542 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 1: head coach Matt Rule has made a change. We're leaving 543 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: Joe Brady of his duties as offensive coordinator and promoting 544 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 1: Jeff Nixon the senior offensive assistant to the interim O C. 545 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 1: It sure feels like Brady's fall and Carolina coming almost 546 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 1: as quickly as his rise with the national champion l 547 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 1: s U Tigers. The numbers clearly do not paint a 548 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,080 Speaker 1: pretty picture for what the Carolina Panthers offense has done 549 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 1: this year, especially outside of those first three games of 550 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,440 Speaker 1: the season, feels like a while ago they were three 551 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 1: and oh right, uh, and so d J what been 552 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 1: wrong here? Well, look, who's a fast rise for Joe Brady? 553 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 1: And I think you can place some of the blame 554 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: on his shoulders. You talk to teams that have played 555 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:36,960 Speaker 1: against them, Uh, they've said, look, I don't know how 556 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 1: much of an offense they actually have versus them just 557 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,640 Speaker 1: repeating plays that have given us trouble in the previous 558 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 1: three weeks. They said, a lot of times we get 559 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 1: beat on runs. Uh, in a week or two before 560 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 1: we play them, we'll see those runs when we play 561 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,639 Speaker 1: against the Panthers. Well, in college, they get away with 562 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:52,800 Speaker 1: that stuff. In the NFL, there's so much there's so 563 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 1: many resources, you're self scouting, you make the corrections. You're 564 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 1: not gonna get beat on the same things twice. So 565 00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 1: I think that's some legitimate blame there. But I would 566 00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 1: all a point the situation that he was in, with 567 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,200 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks that they had and how poorly that they played, 568 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 1: and the injuries to Christian McCaffrey buck, I don't know 569 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 1: how much of a chance anybody really would have had, 570 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,440 Speaker 1: what the personnel they have in place right now. Well, absolutely, 571 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: it's always about the players, always about the Jimmy's and 572 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 1: Joe's more so than the xs and ohs. But I 573 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 1: think there was some frustration from a schematic standpoint about 574 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,680 Speaker 1: this team not being committed to running the football. Matt 575 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:23,879 Speaker 1: Rule alluded to the running game and how they need 576 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:25,640 Speaker 1: to run it and run it and run it over 577 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 1: and over and over again, and so maybe he is 578 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,640 Speaker 1: just seeking someone who knows the running game. Well, when 579 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 1: you think about Jeff Mix and he's a former running 580 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,159 Speaker 1: bass coach, he was his co offensive coordinator at Baylor, 581 00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 1: trying to get some of that going. Whoever is the 582 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:42,879 Speaker 1: running back, whether it's Christoph McCaffrey who's out for the season, 583 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 1: or any of the backs that were behind them, they 584 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 1: have to run the football so they can control it. 585 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:49,200 Speaker 1: I would think you will see a more creative running 586 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 1: game from the Carolina Panthers. And I also say going 587 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 1: in the next year, I don't know that the quarterbacks 588 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: on the roster right now, well, that's that's a big issue. 589 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 1: The challenges they're committed to Sam financially pick with that 590 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 1: fifth year option. So whoever that quarter that coordinator is 591 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 1: going to be next year, is going to get an 592 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,159 Speaker 1: opportunity to see if they can fix Sam Donald. I 593 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,200 Speaker 1: would like to see Sam Donald with the healthy Christian 594 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 1: McCaffrey for a stretch run here. I know, I look, 595 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 1: everybody is bailed on Sam and he has not played well. 596 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 1: I think he's going to get another crack at it, though, 597 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 1: because I don't know where they go considering they're already 598 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 1: committed with him. The question that I have is, like 599 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 1: you guys would consider you guys would would basically say 600 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 1: that the centerpiece of the Panthers offense is Christian McCaffrey, right, 601 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 1: and so with the amount of games that he's missed 602 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:33,280 Speaker 1: during Joe Brady's tenured off as offensive coordinator, it's kind 603 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 1: of tough, right. I Mean, if you're gonna miss the 604 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: focal piece of your offense for as many games as 605 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 1: as McCaffrey has been down majority of last season, much 606 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 1: of this season, you know, that's kind of a tough deal. 607 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 1: So now, Bucky, is you look near term? What can 608 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 1: the Panthers do to try to write the situation because 609 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 1: they're not totally out of the playoff picture. No, no, 610 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 1: not totally. Other playoffs because I think they have to 611 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 1: play the show game. I think this has to be 612 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 1: all hands on deck. You do whatever you can do 613 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 1: to manufacture a run game. Obviously, you talk about him 614 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,159 Speaker 1: on a one year deal. I think this is an 615 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: opportunity for them to do whatever they can do with 616 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,439 Speaker 1: Cam Newton. And even though he's an older quarterback, they 617 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 1: kind of have to let him play the way that 618 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:09,639 Speaker 1: he has always played because I think that's the only 619 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 1: way you can get the best out of him. But 620 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:13,640 Speaker 1: Chebo Hoover has to be a factor, and they still 621 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,680 Speaker 1: have to find a way to get the other guys involved, 622 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 1: Robbie Anderson on the outside, t J. Moore. They have 623 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:21,920 Speaker 1: to find a way to allow these guys to have 624 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,160 Speaker 1: the ball in their hands. And so maybe you see 625 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 1: some of the stuff that we've seen other teams do. 626 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 1: We saw the don has used jet sweeps and flash 627 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,440 Speaker 1: sweeps and those things. You gotta find a way to 628 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:32,120 Speaker 1: put in your playmates and see if they can make play. 629 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: One thing I just want to add, though Joe Brady 630 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: is very young, Joe Brady is gonna have a long talentedfession. 631 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 1: He's gonna get another crack at it. Um. I don't 632 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,239 Speaker 1: want people thinking this is all on him. He'll get 633 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: another opportunity when he's ready. Brian Kelly might need an 634 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator down an l s U always got that. 635 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,920 Speaker 1: Joe Brady has been for sure. Look the fact that 636 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 1: you brought up up the quarterbacks, I think is really 637 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: interesting here because where do you lie the blame scheme 638 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,119 Speaker 1: quarterback both and then how does Matt Role rectify that 639 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,199 Speaker 1: for the future here? Well, I think the biggest thing 640 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 1: is a quarterback situation. I would much rather take my 641 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:06,439 Speaker 1: chances with a great quarterback with an average play call 642 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 1: or than a great play caller with an average quarterback. 643 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,399 Speaker 1: So you know, I don't think there's anything they can 644 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:12,919 Speaker 1: do if you like, what are they do from now 645 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,600 Speaker 1: going forward? There's no no quarterback tree. We can go 646 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,159 Speaker 1: grab one and upgrade what you currently have. This is 647 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:19,879 Speaker 1: this is a situation where they've got to try and 648 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: find a way to make do as you were saying, 649 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:23,359 Speaker 1: But I just I don't like their chances is what 650 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:25,399 Speaker 1: I'm getting well, and it paints an interesting picture for 651 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,879 Speaker 1: their draft priorities here coming up next season for the 652 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:32,000 Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers, which of course we will continue to follow 653 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: as we get closer to the spring.
